Speaker 4: Coming up in just a little bit, we'll talk about

11
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 4: the changing coaching carousel in college football, is there's a

12
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:32,200
Speaker 4: game that's about to end that could also affect coaches

13
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 4: standing with his team. But later Halloween movies. We do

14
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 4: this traditionally on FNA.

15
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:40,159
Speaker 3: We would do this on the podcast for years on end,

16
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:44,279
Speaker 3: talking about Adam's top list of Halloween movies for a

17
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:44,960
Speaker 3: given year.

18
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 4: Which got over like one hundred, which is crazy. I mean,

19
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 4: we won't go that far, but I will release a

20
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 4: couple of different categories.

21
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,960
Speaker 2: Like seriously, I've watched all of these films, by the way, yeah, over.

22
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 4: My life at some point somewhere. Well, also being a

23
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 4: Fel six pack of course, as always, that's a staple

24
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 4: here and our college football forecast.

Speaker 3: Absolutely, And I also have a special guest coming up

27
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 3: in the second hour of the show, our friend Noah Eagle,

28
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 3: the voice of the Big Ten NBC and Peacock.

29
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 2: Also the voice of the NBA.

30
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,960
Speaker 3: NBA getting started this coming week with Opening Night on Tuesday,

31
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 3: I believe, also the voice of the NBA on NBC

32
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,559
Speaker 3: and Peacock. He's calling the big Notre Dame USC game

33
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 3: on Peacock and the NBC coming up later this afternoon.

34
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 3: So that'll be fun.

35
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 2: Okay, let's get to it. First off, it's time.

36
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 5: It's go time.

37
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 2: That's wrong. So I know it's called Fox Football Saturday.

38
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 3: And and I look down at the rundown that presets

39
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,559
Speaker 3: up for us, and the headline for this particular segment

40
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 3: just says Otani omg omg omg omg.

41
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 4: Oh my god, it's goat Tani. First of all, like

42
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,559
Speaker 4: you gotta change your name after what happened tonight, because

43
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 4: he had more hits then he gave up hits.

44
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 2: On the mound and his hits went for home runs.

45
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 3: You know, Adam, I heard you. You were doing Fox

46
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 3: Football Sunday last weekend, and he talked about Otani being

47
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 3: the unicorn, potentially being the greatest player in the history

48
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 3: of the sport, not being hyperbole, doing things that Babe

49
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 3: Roof was never able to do against competition that Babe

50
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,960
Speaker 3: Roof never played against. And don't you know you fast

51
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,800
Speaker 3: forward one week, how about that and looked at the

52
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 3: performance that he had on Friday night in a clinching

53
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,119
Speaker 3: a series clinching game in Game four of the NLCS

54
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 3: for the Dodgers against the Brewers, to hit three home

55
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 3: runs and strike out ten batters in six scoreless innings.

56
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 2: Incredible.

57
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 4: My thesis on this was if Otani and I thought

58
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 4: this coming into the season, because we knew at some

59
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 4: point he was going to pitch again. And I fully

60
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 4: believe the reason he went to the Dodgers is for

61
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 4: moments like this. It's a run like this that can

62
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 4: solidify his greatness doing what nobody else has done.

63
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 2: And tonight was a historic game.

64
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:02,359
Speaker 4: But I said last weekend, if Otani pitches at a

65
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 4: high enough level, hits at a high enough level, and

66
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 4: wins the World Series while doing so, he is and

67
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 4: here's the operative word, easily the greatest player of all time.

68
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 4: There is no debate how could you debate it? Well,

69
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 4: I tell Rob Parker you've seen what he's doing tonight.

70
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,679
Speaker 2: No drop going off on the Twitter machine. You want

71
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 2: to talk.

72
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:24,799
Speaker 3: We do have to lob a text message to Rob

73
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 3: Parker and get him on the show tonight, because I'll

74
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 3: do it.

75
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 4: Honestly, I don't think that would be the worst idea

76
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:33,359
Speaker 4: because he fancies himself a baseball expert, and Kevin.

77
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 2: Is MLB bro. He's a Hall of Fame voter. Of

78
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 2: course he's a baseball he's great at it.

79
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 4: We see him on MLB Network all the time. But

80
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 4: he's also the expert of poop pooing something, down playing something.

81
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 2: For self described pooh pooh king. Can you read this?

82
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 4: This is a tweet that he also put on Instagram

83
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 4: because he thoughts so much of it as everybody else

84
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 4: is freaking out about freaking out about Otani? Can you

85
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 4: give me the Rob Parker impersonation?

86
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 2: You do? Don't be a prisoner of the moment.

87
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 6: Amazing game by Otani show, But he was hitting one

88
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 6: fifty in postseason with a ton of strikeouts before tonight.

89
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 2: Real assessment.

90
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 6: Otani is a unicorn, but not the goat hashtag premature.

91
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 4: Well, done, well done, premature.

92
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 6: He's the most most overrated athlete of all time.

93
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 4: I think what Otani has done is scrambled brains. We

94
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 4: have no idea how to assess something like this because

95
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 4: it's never happened before. Yeah, I don't give a damn

96
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 4: what Babe Ruth did during segregation where he's not going

97
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 4: up against most of the best players back then.

98
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 3: Oh, guys weren't in shape. And now goes for the

99
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 3: pitchers and the hitters. Back then, they know every flaw possible.

100
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 3: With today's analytics on how to get you out, on

101
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 3: how to get hits off you as well, when you're

102
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 3: talking about Otani, any mistake you make can and will

103
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 3: be used against you. And Otani is thriving in this era.

104
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,279
Speaker 3: In four K and tonight it was this Crem daily

105
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 3: Krem his masterpiece. And you can say is they took

106
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 3: advantage of his weaknesses.

107
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 2: Look how lost he looked at the plate.

108
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 3: And I don't think it's hyperbole to say that he

109
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 3: was lost in the entire nds against the Phillies. So

110
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 3: start the series against Milwaukee, yet he only had a hit.

111
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,720
Speaker 3: Even the hit he got in Game three, that triple,

112
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 3: he kind of just kind of threw the bat out there,

113
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 3: not to take away from his you know, greatness and

114
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 3: his skill at the plate. And that was kind of

115
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 3: an excuse me triple if I've ever seen one. So

116
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 3: as all as if he was tearing the cover off

117
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 3: the ball, he looked terrible and all of a sudden

118
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,679
Speaker 3: it can flip in just a moment's notice. And Freddie

119
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 3: Freeman said this, I don't know if it was at

120
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 3: the end of the Philly series or right before the NLCS.

121
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 3: He said, Show is one of those guys where all

122
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 3: you need is one hit. Yeah, you get one hit,

123
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 3: and all of a sudden, the the just the rain

124
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 3: starts to pour, and all of a sudden he turns

125
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:44,600
Speaker 3: into the greatest player that you've ever seen again.

126
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 4: And basketball is one shot hot though Tani can be,

127
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 4: can it be a pitch that gets him going to

128
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 4: because the knock on him has been he doesn't hit

129
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 4: as well when he pitches.

130
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:56,159
Speaker 2: It's not even to the knock.

131
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 3: I mean, that's what the numbers all season long, outside

132
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 3: of the best season in Anaheim, which three years ago,

133
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 3: I believe it was where he was fully healthy the

134
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 3: entire season and hit that entire year, pitched that entire year,

135
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,719
Speaker 3: and he was equally amazing doing both. Generally speaking, throughout

136
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,919
Speaker 3: his career, he has struggled at the plate on nights

137
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:14,479
Speaker 3: and the nights after he pitches.

138
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 4: I remember talking about this with you his last season.

139
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 4: I think with the Angels when it was a will

140
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 4: they won't they trade him? Will they just let him

141
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 4: go for nothing? Will they take that risk? Or will

142
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 4: they trade perhaps the greatest player of all time? And

143
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 4: we were saying, then Otani is the eighth wonder of

144
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 4: the world. He's been tucked away and hidden in Anaheim.

145
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,280
Speaker 4: And as you put it, Mike Trout was the flower

146
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 4: in the pot of dirt.

147
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 2: I still stand by that. So what's Otani the garden

148
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 2: of Eden? There? Like we're starting to wilt unfortunately for Mike.

149
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:55,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's when it took him how many yet bats

150
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 4: and it's four hundredth home run this year. I think

151
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 4: it took him like one hundred and twenty eight at bats.

152
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 2: So it was almost I fell.

153
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 3: I thought it was knocking on the door of one

154
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 3: hundred and fifty two hundred at bets, But all right.

155
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,599
Speaker 4: I know there's a lot of pressure. I think it

156
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 4: was exactly one hundred and twenty eight bats from hitting

157
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 4: number three ninety eight to get to number four hundred.

158
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 4: But he saw Mike Trout being the cautionary tale. Yeah,

159
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna let this happen to me.

160
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 3: Now, Mike Trout, if he loves it there or to him,

161
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 3: he wants to hide. And I'm not saying, you know,

162
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 3: hide from the limelight. He just wants to live his

163
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 3: life the way he enjoys it.

164
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 4: That's fine. But oh Tani had a chance, and he

165
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 4: knew then. He's aware of his legacy that if he

166
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 4: goes to the right situation to be the greatest of

167
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 4: all time, to be talked about like what we're doing

168
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 4: tonight here on Fox Sports Radio, tonight's that night.

169
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 2: He also recognized that. And maybe we can spend this

170
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 2: off a little later too.

171
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 3: As far as the conversation of the Dodgers ruining baseball

172
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 3: and whether rules should be changed as far as salary

173
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 3: caps go, the contract that he signed where he basically

174
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 3: makes two million dollars a year annually so that the

175
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 3: Dodgers have enough money to go out and sign other players.

176
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 3: Most players, man, most players are not willing to do that. Yeah,

177
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 3: even with the fact even though it's deferred money. He's

178
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 3: gonna end up getting his seven hundred plus million dollars.

179
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 3: He's just going to get the majority of it much

180
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 3: later down the road. And that's the uniqueness of the

181
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 3: sport and how it's built. A lot of players aren't

182
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 3: doing that. Wan Soto didn't do that. Wan Sodo way,

183
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 3: every single solitary scent that he can get from the

184
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 3: Mets and even squeeze the Yankees in the negotiation just

185
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 3: to get an extra what five million dollars from the

186
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 3: Mets or whatever it was, He's.

187
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 2: Then for leverage.

188
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely, Yeah, i Otani is different than anything we've

189
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 4: seen because it's not just who he is as a player.

190
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 4: It goes along with him being in the International Superstar Bilingual, trilingual, however,

191
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 4: main languages. He can speak like, I don't want to

192
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 4: talk about his past, interpreter, translator.

193
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 2: But the past right here to talk about the past.

194
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 2: He got here talking about that ass.

195
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 4: But Otani is I think self aware to a point

196
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 4: that maybe it hurt him a little bit early on

197
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 4: in these playoffs because that pressure can compound on you

198
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 4: when you know what's at stake, and it's not just

199
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 4: about the Dodgers I'm not saying that he would ever

200
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 4: come out and say all I care about is, you know,

201
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 4: the Dodgers winning the World Series. Of course he'll say

202
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 4: stuff like that. But there is a subplot to this

203
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,079
Speaker 4: that he can go down as the greatest player ever.

204
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 4: If you're pitching at the highest level and hitting at

205
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:22,839
Speaker 4: the highest level and you go on to win the

206
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 4: World Series doing both those things at the same time,

207
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 4: it's over.

208
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 2: There can be no debate.

209
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 4: We can debate all kinds of other a goats, but

210
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 4: this one should be definitive to me.

211
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 2: I don't know how you can argue against it.

212
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,080
Speaker 3: Tel Rod Parker, I guess, like and look, I certainly

213
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 3: understand the argument from people saying, we don't want to

214
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 3: be a prisoner of the moment.

215
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 2: Let's let things play out. What else needs to be

216
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 2: played out? Who else is doing this? Who? And I look?

217
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 3: And major League Baseball they have the old tiny rule

218
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 3: where he can start games as a pitcher and he

219
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 3: can also hit, and there's talk I think Andrew Friedman,

220
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 3: the general manager of the Dodgers or president of Baseball

221
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,959
Speaker 3: ops of the Dodgers, said that they should revise the

222
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 3: rule so that a player can also be a reliever

223
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 3: in a game and also hit, and maybe that's something

224
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 3: that would open up the floodgates a little more for

225
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 3: other players to be able to do it. And even

226
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,200
Speaker 3: if players do do it at some point in the future,

227
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:09,680
Speaker 3: they're not gonna be able to do it at this level. Well,

228
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 3: this guy's got basically a Hall of Fame talent at

229
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,680
Speaker 3: the pitch as a pitcher and as a hitter. Nobody's

230
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 3: gonna be able to do it. If they are, it's

231
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 3: going to be a long time before they able to

232
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 3: do it at this level. The beat to be a

233
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 3: stellar performer at both sides not gonna be able to

234
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:21,719
Speaker 3: do it.

235
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 4: My argument to Rob Parker would be, there's no other

236
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 4: player you can bring up that can dominate in this

237
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 4: many ways, in this many parts of the game, like Otani.

238
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 4: Even if you think there are slightly better hitters, there

239
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 4: have been. They also have asterisks if you're talking about

240
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 4: Barry Bonds. But even if you're saying, Okay, he's not

241
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 4: the greatest hitter of all time, cool, that's fine.

242
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 2: Is he tenth, is he fifteenth? Whatever?

243
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 4: Those guys don't pitch like him, they either don't pitch

244
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 4: at all, right, And if they did, they ain't pitching

245
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 4: like him. And then if you think there are better pitchers,

246
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 4: and you can argue that there are clearly even in

247
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 4: today's game. We don't have to go back twenty five years,

248
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 4: but none of them can hit like him. So he's

249
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 4: two and one, he's two players in one, and he's

250
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 4: maybe he's not a ten, but he's a nine at

251
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 4: both of those feats. That's incredible. There's nothing else like that.

252
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 4: Eighth Wonder of the World might be selling him short.

253
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 4: This is a baseball god. This is something we're never

254
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:21,239
Speaker 4: going to see again.

255
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 2: Probably.

256
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,320
Speaker 4: I mean, you know, I never expected to see it

257
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,079
Speaker 4: in the first place, so I don't want to discount anything.

258
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 4: I'm welcoming it, but I don't think remember when Steph

259
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 4: Curry came along and everybody said, this is the future.

260
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 4: Everybody's going to be shooting like him. And while guys

261
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 4: do take three pointers and take more. Now, Trey Young

262
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,960
Speaker 4: is not Steph Curry. He's good, but he has a

263
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:48,560
Speaker 4: lot of limitations. Steph Curry is still a one of one,

264
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 4: even with a ton of copycats. Oltani, how do you

265
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,320
Speaker 4: prepare for trying to be the next Oltani? It's like

266
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 4: good luck trying to be the next Lebron because you

267
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 4: have to have in f letticism, you have to have

268
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 4: something special. Oh, Tani, it's more skill. There's still athleticism there,

269
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 4: but it's also the highest level of skill at two different,

270
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:10,959
Speaker 4: completely different things.

271
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:11,560
Speaker 2: That's the thing.

272
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 3: The amount of mental fortitude that it takes fit the

273
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 3: work that you have to put in just to try

274
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 3: to master one thing as a star athlete, to be

275
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 3: a dominant starting pitcher, the amount of work ethic that

276
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,840
Speaker 3: it takes to be a dominant designated hitter, and for

277
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 3: him to be able to do both at the highest

278
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 3: level and dominate at the highest level on the biggest stage.

279
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 2: That's what it's one.

280
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 3: Thing to do with in May when you're playing for

281
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 3: the Angels against the Marlins and the game that no

282
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:38,079
Speaker 3: one cares.

283
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 2: And by the way, I'm not downplaying it. It's still

284
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 2: impressive there.

285
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're doing it now on the biggest stage with

286
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 3: a chance to go to the World Series on the line,

287
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 3: and all the eyeballs are on you.

288
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 2: I mean, you really can't put it into words.

289
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 4: There's only to your point, so many hours in the day.

290
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's your ten thousand hours, my man.

291
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, right, what dimension is he going to to gain

292
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 4: more experience at hitting or pitching to where he can

293
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 4: be this good at both at the same time.

294
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:07,840
Speaker 2: I don't know what planet this guy's from. I do

295
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:08,959
Speaker 2: think he.

296
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 4: Still has to I'm not saying to have another game

297
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 4: like this on their run, but he has to be

298
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 4: more consistent the rest of the way. The Dodgers might

299
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 4: need to not beat teams as fast just to give

300
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 4: Altaani enough time to compile more numbers in the World Series, Like, honestly,

301
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 4: it's working against him. You're only getting four games to

302
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 4: get yourself out of this slump because we're about to

303
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 4: sweep the team of the best record in.

304
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:33,680
Speaker 3: The league in Milwaukee Brewers. That's gonna be the weird

305
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,679
Speaker 3: thing too. It's like you go back to last postseasons.

306
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 3: His number wasn't gaudy, and then he got injured early

307
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 3: in the World Series and wasn't really a factor, even

308
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 3: though he ended up playing in all the games there

309
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 3: his numbers, even though he ended up being the NLCSMVP

310
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 3: and quite honestly, going against a game four on Friday night,

311
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 3: I don't even know who the front runner for MVP

312
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 3: was or would have been, because it was more of

313
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 3: a team effort, like he couldn't have given it to

314
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 3: Blake Snell without talking about Yamamoto. You know, no offensive

315
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:01,559
Speaker 3: player really stood out in that series until I absolutely

316
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 3: stole the show on Friday Night. So if you look

317
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 3: at his actual stat line from the postseason or from

318
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 3: the NLCS specifically, it's not necessarily gaudy outside of that

319
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,320
Speaker 3: Game four performance. The weird thing is if they end

320
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,520
Speaker 3: up winning the World Series and his numbers aren't that great.

321
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 3: You have back to back seasons where they win the

322
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 3: World Series and Otani is I would never say he's

323
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 3: a non factor, because just him being a pitching presence

324
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 3: alone is one thing. But the fact that he wouldn't

325
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 3: put up the most gaudy of numbers, despite the fact

326
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 3: that he's a spectacular Hall of Fame once at a

327
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 3: generation type player, does speak to the depth and how

328
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 3: got the roster as a whole is as well well.

329
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 2: And that could take us.

330
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 4: Maybe we got five to six minutes to hit upon that,

331
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 4: because there is a lot of backlash going towards the

332
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 4: Dodgers right now. In fact, Andrew Friedman was asked by

333
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 4: Matt money Smith, I think it was earlier today about

334
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 4: people saying you're buying a championship and all the talk

335
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 4: we're hearing right now, you're an op overpowered super team

336
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 4: that is so unbeatable it makes the game seem I

337
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 4: don't want to say meaningless, but what didn't they lose? Now, Yeah,

338
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 4: it diminishes for some people's sake, it diminishes the level

339
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 4: of competition. From the outside perspective, Dodger fans aren't feeling

340
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 4: I guess course, if you're a Dodger fan, this is

341
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 4: exactly what they thought coming into this season would happen.

342
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 4: Remember all the one sixty two and oh talk. Absolutely Now,

343
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 4: I know that's ridiculous.

344
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 3: Right, but that's and I think a lot of that

345
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 3: was coming from from the outside Tuesday. This team is

346
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 3: so stacked. If they don't win one hundred and thirty games,

347
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 3: something's wrong, right.

348
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 4: Like I said at the beginning of the season, I

349
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 4: went back to April and looked at I think I

350
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 4: was on with Rogan and Rodney at some point, and

351
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 4: to me, this season was about the Dodgers not playing

352
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 4: the current competition in Major League Baseball in twenty twenty five.

353
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 4: They are chasing ghosts. They are going up against the

354
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 4: greatest teams of all time, and that's who they're going

355
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 4: to be compared to. If they only have one loss

356
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 4: and go on to win the World Series and have

357
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 4: one loss along the way, like the Lakers back in

358
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 4: two thousand, that's an all time run, right. If they're

359
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 4: this dominant, that's what we're talking about the legacy of

360
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 4: this dynasty and where you elevate it too. But some

361
00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 4: people don't like it that it's non competitive baseball because

362
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,680
Speaker 4: they're kicking everybody's ass, and some people pointing out that,

363
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 4: you know, if they didn't have all this deferred money,

364
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 4: they'd have a payroll of seven hundred million.

365
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's true. How does that quer bolic?

366
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 3: I don't know if it'd be that high, But I'll

367
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 3: say this, they do and it's not against the rules.

368
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 3: And every other team in Major League Baseball can sign

369
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 3: that contract if they wanted to. When they're choosing not to,

370
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 3: you could do defer money if you're the Phillies or

371
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 3: the Mets, or the Angels or the Marlins or any

372
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 3: other team.

373
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 2: You're just choosing not to.

374
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 3: And if the Dodgers are savvy enough and working within

375
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 3: the rules to be able to do it.

376
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 4: Why is that their fault? I'll say this. I didn't

377
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 4: love when KD went to the Golden State Warriors, sure

378
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 4: because it made them so overpowered, and really it was

379
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 4: more about him. He just lost to them in the

380
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 4: Western Conference Finals after being up three to one.

381
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 2: He's such a great player, go win somewhere else.

382
00:16:59,320 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 5: I do.

383
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 4: Ball is a little bit different when it comes to that, too, right,

384
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 4: and one player can affect things so much. But this

385
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:12,239
Speaker 4: Dodgers team, they're entering an area where, let's say they

386
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:16,360
Speaker 4: win the next three and they're just rolling teams. Then

387
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 4: people are gonna say the same stuff. They're buying championships,

388
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:25,120
Speaker 4: and everybody online loves to downplay and diminish any other

389
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 4: fan base who wins, So it doesn't matter what you do.

390
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 4: You might as well just go out there and kick

391
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,440
Speaker 4: everyone's ass. And I think Dave Roberts actually pushed back

392
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 4: against this, and we have this audio from earlier today

393
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 4: of David.

394
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:44,159
Speaker 2: Before this season started. They said, the Dodgers are ruining baseball.

395
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 7: Let's get four more wins and really ruin baseball.

396
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:49,120
Speaker 5: Let's go.

397
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:50,200
Speaker 2: I love that.

398
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,360
Speaker 3: That's the attitude it is and I and by the way,

399
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 3: I embrace it because let me go back at him.

400
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:55,679
Speaker 3: So we talked about the last time a team repeated

401
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 3: was what the Yankees in ninety nine, two thousand? Yeah, so,

402
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 3: And I believe, if I remember correctly, a lot of

403
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 3: those guys on those teams were homegrown talent. It wasn't

404
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,359
Speaker 3: like they went on these giants spinding spreeze. Yet that

405
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 3: didn't start into a couple of years later when they

406
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 3: went out and started bringing in Gimbi's and a Rods

407
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 3: and guys like that. And if you remember, because I

408
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 3: vividly do, those teams didn't win. No, yeah, Sheffield, I

409
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 3: mean you just named I remember. I think it was

410
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:20,960
Speaker 3: two thousand and six. Rob Parker may have been covering

411
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 3: the Detroit Tigers at the time, and it was Jeremy

412
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 3: Bonderman and a bunch of young dudes.

413
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 2: Justin Verlander was a reliever coming out of the.

414
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 3: Bullpen, with Joelzamaya and a couple of other guys that

415
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 3: no one had ever heard of, and the Yankees had

416
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,359
Speaker 3: supposedly the best lineup in the history of the sport.

417
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 3: You at Jeter, and you at a Rod, and you

418
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,159
Speaker 3: had Posada, and you had a young Robinson cano you hat,

419
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,199
Speaker 3: all these Hall of famers, Bobby A. Bray, you and

420
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 3: they couldn't get a hit.

421
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 2: You know why they lost against you?

422
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:42,920
Speaker 5: Do?

423
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,160
Speaker 4: But I'm saying the audience, the reason they lost against

424
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 4: Boston after being up three to zero is their bats

425
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,440
Speaker 4: went completely cold. They choked that series away at the plate.

426
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 2: Which, by the way, happens.

427
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,440
Speaker 3: The Dodgers, who had the best record in all of

428
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,639
Speaker 3: baseball a few years ago, lost to the Arizona Diamondbacks

429
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 3: of all teams because they're staff and we're not talking

430
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 3: about dominant pitchers here, they're good starters. Just shut down

431
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 3: Freddie Freeman and Mooki Batts and all those star players

432
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,640
Speaker 3: on that roster. This that's the randomness of baseball. One

433
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 3: thing I always say is if you have a giant

434
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,360
Speaker 3: payroll and you put together a really talented and really

435
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 3: good team, all that generally does and I guess say,

436
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:19,879
Speaker 3: unless you're like the Mets from the past couple of years,

437
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,439
Speaker 3: it buys you into the postseason. Yeah, but once you

438
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 3: get to the playoffs, baseball is sort of like hockey.

439
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:25,679
Speaker 2: It is so random.

440
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 3: It is so based on who the hot pitcher is,

441
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 3: who the hot goalie is. Maybe one or two hot

442
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:34,080
Speaker 3: players for a team who are not superstars can carry

443
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 3: you to beating a team that's favored.

444
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 2: It happens all the time.

445
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,160
Speaker 3: That's a big reason why we haven't had a repeat

446
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,120
Speaker 3: champion over the past twenty some odd years.

447
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:42,880
Speaker 4: We'll break here in a second, but I do want

448
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 4: to say this. There are levels to billionaires, and the

449
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 4: Guggenheim Group is worth like three hundred and seventy five

450
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:52,439
Speaker 4: billion because they are a group of billionaires that come together.

451
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,680
Speaker 4: So people that say, well, they're billionaires too, they could

452
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,159
Speaker 4: go out and pay It's not necessarily the same, but

453
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,479
Speaker 4: those guys, far too often those other teams aren't willing

454
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 4: to reinvest in their initial investment, and that's bothersome to me.

455
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,959
Speaker 4: They're just out there to turn a profit. So if

456
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 4: the Dodgers are raising the ceiling and competitiveness and everybody

457
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 4: else needs to catch up and spend more, I think

458
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,160
Speaker 4: that's ultimately a good thing for baseball.

459
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:19,359
Speaker 2: And we'll get out here.

460
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 3: Brit I know you're in our ear right now, but

461
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,159
Speaker 3: I saw something from Forbes earlier this week as far

462
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 3: as the amount of revenue that each MLB team generates

463
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,360
Speaker 3: versus how much they actually reinvest back into their payroll.

464
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,879
Speaker 3: The Dodgers obviously make the most, but they also reinvest

465
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 3: like seventy five percent of their money into their actual

466
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,440
Speaker 3: on field payroll. At the very bottom of that list,

467
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 3: of the Chicago White Sox, they reinvest twenty seven percent

468
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 3: of the money that they make. Do they actually invest

469
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 3: into the payroll on their roster? Twenty seven percent? Yeah, Dodge,

470
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 3: What are we saying here? No, what were we talking about?

471
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 2: Dodger fans are rewarded.

472
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:54,639
Speaker 4: You show up. We put the attendance numbers up. It

473
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,920
Speaker 4: ends up paying for all these great players, and they

474
00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 4: pay for themselves by having deep playoff runs and winning

475
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 4: World Series championships. And that's what it looks like they're about.

476
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 2: To do again. Absolutely it is.

477
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,840

478

479
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:12,880
Speaker 3: added to the list.

480
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,040
Speaker 2: Although I highly doubt it, but maybe he should be.

481
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,240

510

Speaker 3: I mean, I get that people are in the hot

511
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 3: take business for a reason. Well, technically, he didn't say

512
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 3: that he was overrated. He just said that he's not

513
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,439
Speaker 3: the greatest player of all of all time, or of

514
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 3: our generation or whatever.

515
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,919
Speaker 4: Hyperb believe I need to know who his greatest player is.

516
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 4: Then that's a good question.

517
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,119
Speaker 2: You're right. Rob has not responded to me. Now we

518
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 2: know Rob.

519
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 3: You know, we know the kind of circles that Rob

520
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 3: runs in the Golden Girl to a cruise, So Rob

521
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:55,359
Speaker 3: was probably asleep, like at eleven o'clock this morning.

522
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 4: I thought, you're gonna say he's in Atlanta somewhere.

523
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,159
Speaker 2: Oh, well, that's true. Get some of those Magic City Wings.

524
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 4: With lou Hello Beautiful and Jack Harlow I think is

525
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 4: the rapper.

526
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 2: Yes, I don't know who these people are.

527
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 4: I know who these people are, and they're moving on.

528
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 4: I played that sound for a reason coming in here, because.

529
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,240
Speaker 7: The chiads are playing, the tailor are screwing.

530
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 4: There is a coaching carousel going on. James Franklin I

531
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 4: was let go, so we got Arkansas with the job.

532
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 2: Of that Sam Pittman, which was weird.

533
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 3: Sam Pittman was the head coach at Arkansas, very embattled

534
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 3: head coach there for for the last few years especially,

535
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 3: and I highly doubt that this was his choice. And

536
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 3: there's always politics involved when it comes to these sorts

537
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 3: of things. You know who his offensive coordinator was or

538
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 3: is no who Bobby Petrino.

539
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 2: Oh, that's right.

540
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,919
Speaker 3: He almost won the game last weekend and people were

541
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,199
Speaker 3: starting to freak out Bobby Petrino's back, and then he

542
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 3: blew up by not kicking a field goal and going

543
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,640
Speaker 3: up two scores or whatever that's saying. Bobby Petrino, who

544
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 3: despite the infidelity and the neck brace and the you know,

545
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 3: having an affair with the co ed and the motorcycle

546
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:02,439
Speaker 3: and all that. A lot of the fan base was

547
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:04,359
Speaker 3: not happy that he was let go because he was

548
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 3: winning football games, which any other morals or anything else.

549
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 2: Are you winning or are you not?

550
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 4: No, So the same same people who act like they

551
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:14,960
Speaker 4: are on their moral high horse, and it's like, oh,

552
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 4: I have Tyreek Hill on my fantasy football two thousand percent.

553
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,920
Speaker 4: The hypocrisy is just it's rampant tripping.

554
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,119
Speaker 3: So the fact that he was on Sam Pittman' staff,

555
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:26,399
Speaker 3: people say, look, the very very instant that Sam Pittman

556
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 3: runs in some adversity. We got the guy to replace

557
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 3: him right here. Sure enough, Week four or whatever it is,

558
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 3: Pittman's out. They they they elevate him back to the

559
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,399
Speaker 3: head coaching role on an interim basis, and look if

560
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 3: they end up having a good run here, which I

561
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:40,440
Speaker 3: think they might.

562
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,359
Speaker 2: A he's a phenomenal coach. He always has been. X's

563
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 2: and o's. Why is he's good?

564
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, So I think Patrino is probably gonna end up

565
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:49,679
Speaker 3: having a solid end of the season. He's gonna end

566
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 3: up getting that job. But if you're Sam Pittman, he

567
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,200
Speaker 3: was undercome from the very beginning. It's the old fox

568
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:54,120
Speaker 3: in the Henhouse situation.

569
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 4: This was like when Jason Kidd was supposed to take

570
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,399
Speaker 4: over for Frank Vogels with the Lakers. I think there

571
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 4: were betting odds on that at the time. Honestly, I

572
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 4: don't think it ever happened. Guys, he got his own

573
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 4: head coaching job now with Dallas and they got their

574
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,639
Speaker 4: own issues. But hey, Nico Harrison saw the vision. He

575
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 4: knew all along they were going to get Cooper Flagg.

576
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 4: That's why you trade.

577
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 5: Well.

578
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,440
Speaker 3: I will say it did end up happening in some situation,

579
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 3: and Frank Vogel an assistant for Jason Kidd right now

580
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,919
Speaker 3: in Dallas. Is that true, Fank, that's the case, so

581
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 3: full circle, it actually did end up happening. I like Frank,

582
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,160
Speaker 3: Frank's great Frank have probably been overlooked and screwed more

583
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,680
Speaker 3: than any other coach in professional sports, considering his resume

584
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:37,879
Speaker 3: the last ten years. A championship with the Lakers, and

585
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,160
Speaker 3: got blown out for reasons that were not his own.

586
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 2: Trading for Russell Westbrook, who.

587
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,199
Speaker 4: Was great with Indiana. Why it takes so long for

588
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:43,680
Speaker 4: him to get.

589
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 2: A job after that?

590
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 3: The Phoenix was a dumpster fire to begin with. On

591
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,000
Speaker 3: his phone, he took the blame for all that. Yeah,

592
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 3: he is actually the chief assistant for the Dallas Mavericks

593
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 3: right now under Jason Kidd.

594
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,840
Speaker 2: Well see their boys exactly. They worked through it.

595
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 3: And also it happened just moments ago the California Golden

596
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 3: Bears of the ACC which is still weird to say

597
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 3: because we're out the Atlantic Coast. I think Berkeley, California

598
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:07,359
Speaker 3: defeated North Carolina twenty one to eighteen, So Bill Belichick

599
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,800
Speaker 3: falls to two and four and zero and two in conference.

600
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 3: Things have not gone off to a great start, to

601
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:13,440
Speaker 3: say the least for coach Belichick.

602
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 4: How how hot is his seat getting? Because there was

603
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,680
Speaker 4: that Rod Very if I'm to be honest report two

604
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 4: weeks ago now where somebody said, oh, they're in disarray.

605
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 4: There's toxicity without the organization, without the throughout the organization.

606
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,160
Speaker 3: Athletic did a whole ride up on it and all

607
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,440
Speaker 3: these jilted people within the athletic department that was looking.

608
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:36,479
Speaker 4: For a buyout of one million. He'll lower it so

609
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 4: he can go somewhere else and coach or work in

610
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,159
Speaker 4: the media, because who wouldn't want to hire Bill Belichick

611
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 4: with his personality?

612
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:45,639
Speaker 3: Now We'll say people said that about Nick Saban and

613
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:47,480
Speaker 3: he's been great on game day.

614
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:50,160
Speaker 4: Sometimes the dryness and if you're just a coaching genius,

615
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 4: they don't care how it comes across.

616
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 3: But the problem is and Bill Belichick, you know, to

617
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,399
Speaker 3: steal a Rob Parker line, he poop pooted this earlier

618
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 3: this week when they and they grilled them a couple

619
00:26:58,000 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 3: of North Carolina people were not happy and grilled them

620
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,920
Speaker 3: at a press conference about the expectations and you know,

621
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:05,359
Speaker 3: why should we trust you to to lee listen to

622
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 3: into the Promised Land and all that, and he gave

623
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 3: some pretty good answers. He handled it pretty well. But

624
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,399
Speaker 3: what's the incentive for him to leave? He has a

625
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 3: cushy job. He guys signed a big, long term contract.

626
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 3: Why would he want to leave.

627
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:22,200
Speaker 4: I honestly thought that women week in knees like he

628
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:26,879
Speaker 4: lost his competitiveness and this was half in, half out,

629
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:32,280
Speaker 4: cush job, soft landing. I'm basically retiring and will be

630
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 4: somewhat competitive, and that'll look decent on my resume. I

631
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 4: didn't expect it to be this bad and the cow loss.

632
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,760
Speaker 4: You know, they were competitive tonight, but they've had some

633
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 4: really poor performances already. Absolutely, and you just it's Bill Belichick.

634
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 4: You look, his legacy is not going to be affected

635
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 4: by this.

636
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 2: No, this is this is MJ with the Wizards. Yeah.

637
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:53,639
Speaker 4: I think that's the other reason he could do it

638
00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:54,479
Speaker 4: and get away with it.

639
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:54,880
Speaker 2: Yeah.

640
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,160
Speaker 3: Well, it's also and I don't think he's necessarily wrong.

641
00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 3: I love Meg Brown. Meg Brown's one of the greatest

642
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 3: coaches in the last you know, the past generation of

643
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 3: college football, a great ambassador for the game, and North

644
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,440
Speaker 3: Carolina was respectable under mac Brown. They were never a

645
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 3: national title contender, but they were always a team that

646
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 3: was hovering between eight and ten wins on a given year,

647
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:13,640
Speaker 3: and Bill Belichick was brought in to kind of take

648
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:15,320
Speaker 3: them to that next level and have them be in

649
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 3: the elite level of the ACC. And that stuff isn't

650
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,120
Speaker 3: necessarily done overnight. He said, it takes it's a process.

651
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,159
Speaker 3: He says things did. Things didn't go well for me

652
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 3: in Cleveland when I was in with the Browns. Things

653
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,399
Speaker 3: didn't get off to the greatest starting New England with

654
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,480
Speaker 3: me either, So these things do take time.

655
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 2: So he's not necessarily wrong.

656
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 4: I need my quarterback spleen to go flying the other

657
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 4: way like it did with blood cells, so I can

658
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 4: get to the backup as who's this Tom Brady coming

659
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 4: off the bench.

660
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's the problem is it's just the noise. And

661
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 3: the big thing about Bill Belichick was always doing your job,

662
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 3: no distractions. But then there was the reality show that

663
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:49,480
Speaker 3: now is not going to be reality. I think it

664
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 3: was a Hulu, It was gonna be a Netflix, and

665
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 3: then they dropped out, and I think Hulu was going

666
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 3: to do a documentary on he and Jordan Hudson watching exactly,

667
00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 3: so they dropped out.

668
00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 5: Of it.

669
00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:59,959
Speaker 3: He's right, and doing the book tour of Jordan Hudson,

670
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 3: their trademarking Sugar Daddy or whatever hell their trademarking.

671
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 4: They got spy cameras watching them at all times from

672
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 4: Pablo Torre, which is really creepy to me.

673
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 3: It's all of this stuff that the New England Bill

674
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:13,479
Speaker 3: Belichick never would have gone for.

675
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, in a trillion year.

676
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 4: It seems like he's trying to show another side of

677
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 4: himself as he gets older and he maybe wants to

678
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 4: be remembered in a different way. As you know, a

679
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 4: lot of people tend to change as not everyone. So

680
00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 4: if there was anyone that maybe we thought would be

681
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 4: setting their way, as it was Bill, but a young

682
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:31,960
Speaker 4: woman like.

683
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 3: This changes everything, right, I was doing TikTok dances? Is

684
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:37,680
Speaker 3: that what it is Bill Belichick trying to connect with

685
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 3: the younger audience?

686
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 2: Has that happened? Bill Belicher's got the aura now?

687
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 4: Well, whatever they're doing on the beach that turned into

688
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 4: those air Jordan t shirts that they were selling Game

689
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 4: one before they got smashed.

690
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 3: So bad and so much more embarrassing when you look

691
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 3: at your ass kicked at home in a situation like that,

692
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 3: when you have that giant campaign behind you.

693
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 4: So do you suspect that he's there for the rest

694
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 4: of this season?

695
00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:58,320
Speaker 5: Bob quiz hotshot.

696
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,120
Speaker 3: Bill Belichick's going to be there for as long as

697
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 3: he wants to be because the buyout. The buyout, Yeah, okay,

698
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 3: He's going to be there for as long as he

699
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 3: wants to be to be unless it totally bottoms out.

700
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,320
Speaker 3: I will say, if North Carolina doesn't win another game

701
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:10,160
Speaker 3: this season.

702
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 4: Okay, now we're talking maybe all right.

703
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:13,960
Speaker 2: But I still don't think it's gonna end up being

704
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 2: that bad.

705
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 4: I just want to push back a little bit, okay

706
00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 4: on that won't happen. The buyouts too much. I heard

707
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 4: the same thing from everybody about James Franklin, not even

708
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 4: just James Franklin to Sean Foster.

709
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, people said UCLA is never going to pay that,

710
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 3: They're never going to pay the next head coach anyway.

711
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:33,400
Speaker 3: So what does it matter, Well, it comes down to

712
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 3: the fan app at the aspect of it. Yeah, because

713
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,400
Speaker 3: first of all, the Rose Bowl was empty anyway in general,

714
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 3: and even more so when UCLA got their ass run

715
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 3: off the field multiple times under Shaun Foster's watch.

716
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,680
Speaker 4: When there's a big enough for a vault happening when

717
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 4: there's that much toxicity in.

718
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 2: Your city, you know city that will create.

719
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:54,720
Speaker 4: A change, that will spur a change, And it happened

720
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 4: with James Franklin last weekend.

721
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 2: I'm talking with Petros.

722
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 4: I'm like, they said the same thing about the Sean

723
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,840
Speaker 4: Foster and he's like, well, you got understand that's part

724
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 4: of it now the buyouts are so big.

725
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 3: Well the next day he was gone, well, look, if

726
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:08,920
Speaker 3: you have big enough boosters to bring in someone like

727
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:11,680
Speaker 3: a Bill Belichick, generally speaking, you have big enough boosters

728
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 3: to oust him and bring in somebody else too.

729
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 2: So there's that aspect of it.

730
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 4: I just I don't put anything past these schools that

731
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 4: get in an uproar with the fan base where they

732
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 4: put enough pressure on you. Because there's so much money

733
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,479
Speaker 4: now being made at the top, I think it's easier

734
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 4: to have turnover throughout sports. Most owners, and this is

735
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 4: different than college football, but most owners. We were talking

736
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 4: about the Dodgers earlier with the Guggenheim group. They have

737
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:40,520
Speaker 4: multi billionaires now, so they will hire and fire away.

738
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 4: That's why you see so much, so much, less less

739
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 4: impatience and more turnal.

740
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 3: Well, look, major college football is not that far removed

741
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 3: from that. With I mean, boosters are our empowered now

742
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:53,320
Speaker 3: more than ever. Not so much when it comes to players,

743
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 3: but I think boosters are more involved with coaches at

744
00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 3: this point in time. That's why Texas A and M

745
00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 3: can pay Jimbo Fisher to go away with sixty million

746
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 3: and Daald's left on his deal on the buyout situation,

747
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,360
Speaker 3: or James Franklin can go because they're able to find

748
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 3: this money. Now, the problem with that is the influence

749
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 3: that the boosters have at getting rid of a guy,

750
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 3: they also have influence on the people that you bring

751
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,000
Speaker 3: in too. So the thing about Bill Belichick is and

752
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,959
Speaker 3: there's politics surrounding this because depending on who you listen to,

753
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,160
Speaker 3: the athletic director to even want to hire him, the

754
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 3: board of regents or the board of directors at North

755
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 3: Carolina went over his head, and there's an investigation about this,

756
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 3: I think growing up from a legal standpoint as to

757
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,120
Speaker 3: whether or not they were even allowed to do this

758
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 3: from a couple of board members at the University of

759
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 3: North Carolina that basically forced them to make this higher

760
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 3: against the wishes if the athletic director who wanted somebody else.

761
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 3: So there's a lot more politics involved in this Belichick

762
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 3: situation than that kind of muddies up the waters a

763
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 3: little bit more and doesn't make it as easy of

764
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 3: a decision as you would think. They say, well, let's

765
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:46,720
Speaker 3: just get rid of them after one season.

766
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 4: Well, Petros last weekend made the point with me that

767
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 4: if USC had more money, they would have bought out

768
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:55,640
Speaker 4: Lincoln Riley last season. My point is, I think USC

769
00:32:55,800 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 4: has been slowly eroding over a fifteen year period to

770
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 4: the point where they lowered expectations enough to where they

771
00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:06,120
Speaker 4: aren't frothing at the mouth even when they have what

772
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:10,080
Speaker 4: was last season, six wins, seven wins, all those close losses,

773
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 4: all those leads, the fourth he wasn't as much like

774
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 4: there's more I guess apathy that I set in there.

775
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:20,560
Speaker 4: There's less passion for USC football.

776
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 2: Then there's really ever been.

777
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,520
Speaker 4: Maybe heading into a season we talked about this, the

778
00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:27,600
Speaker 4: expectations were never lower, the bar was never lower. They

779
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,880
Speaker 4: probably exceeded them now, so Lincoln Riley actually looks good.

780
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 4: But it's all relative to expectations.

781
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, to a certain degree, there's also an element of

782
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 3: like when how patient are you?

783
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:37,400
Speaker 2: And when does it run out?

784
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:38,960
Speaker 3: Because I look at if I go to the James

785
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 3: Franklin situation, I know we have to run breathe Like

786
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 3: you know, all the top ten losses only won one

787
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,520
Speaker 3: Big Ten championship, was knocking on the door forever and

788
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:48,840
Speaker 3: never broke through. People were saying the same thing about

789
00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 3: Ryan Day for all these years, and he finally broke last.

790
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 4: Last year when they lost to Michigan. They all wanted

791
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 4: him out.

792
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the year before that and the year before that,

793
00:33:57,560 --> 00:33:59,720
Speaker 3: it was like he would beat everybody except Michigan and

794
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 3: he will fall flat on his face in the biggest moments,

795
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 3: until he didn't. Now, you have to be able to

796
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 3: gauge when the right time is to cut bait in

797
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:09,840
Speaker 3: that particular situation. When to gauge when to be patient,

798
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 3: and when to cut bait early when that decision is

799
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:14,399
Speaker 3: to be made, I'm not sure now, USC, I think

800
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,280
Speaker 3: we'll have a big challenge coming up later this afternoon.

801
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 3: He gets Notre Dame. We'll talk to Noa Eagle about that.

802
00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:21,120
Speaker 3: But they end up getting his victory. It helps pave

803
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,280
Speaker 3: the way to them possibly making the college football Playoff.

804
00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:25,200
Speaker 3: And now we're talking about Lincoln Riley was the guy

805
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:27,200
Speaker 3: that would have been fired last season. Now all of

806
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,160
Speaker 3: a sudden, could be a guy that turns USC around,

807
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 3: and not without Caleb Williams.

808
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:32,480
Speaker 2: Back to a running game.

809
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,359
Speaker 3: Back to being physical upfront, which is something they were

810
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 3: criticized for early in his tenure. Could find themselves at

811
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:38,880
Speaker 3: near the top of the Big Ten and in the playoff.

812
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 5: Well.

813
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:42,440
Speaker 4: To me, James Franklin was Marvin Lewis with the Bengals. Yeah,

814
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,840
Speaker 4: he set a certain standard. They would get to the playoff,

815
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,800
Speaker 4: but they couldn't win the big games. Marvin Lewis and

816
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 4: Andy Dalton would fall apart all the time in playoff games.

817
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,400
Speaker 4: So to get you over the top, you got to

818
00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 4: move to that next guy. I couldn't stand hearing the

819
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:03,680
Speaker 4: stuff about Signetti. To me is like, why does Signetti

820
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:04,359
Speaker 4: need to leave?

821
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:05,319
Speaker 2: Right?

822
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 5: No?

823
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:09,920
Speaker 4: Why not build your own Penn State in Indiana in

824
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:13,719
Speaker 4: today's college football? Like why resuscitate a blue blood or

825
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,399
Speaker 4: put them over the top when things are good there?

826
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,840
Speaker 2: Just I think that's more inspiring. I agree.

827
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 4: Take a program that has never been known from being

828
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:25,120
Speaker 4: a dominant football team. You'll be way more of a

829
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,760
Speaker 4: legend if you win a national championship there then following

830
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:30,720
Speaker 4: in the footsteps of Joe Paterno.

831
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 2: With Penn State.

832
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, the interesting thing is now with that contract extension

833
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:35,879
Speaker 3: that he got on Thursday, Now the bar was raised

834
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 3: at Indiana. What are the expectation levels there? You know,

835
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 3: if you did this ten years ago, going winning seven

836
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:42,799
Speaker 3: eight games a year was good enough. Now that might

837
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:44,239
Speaker 3: not be the case. And he's raised the bar of

838
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:45,360
Speaker 3: expectation at Indiana.

839
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 4: So all these guys can be victims of their own success, basically, absolutely,

840
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,680
Speaker 4: And that's what it came down to with James Franklin.

841
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,800
Speaker 4: Eventually they could get only so far they were good,

842
00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:58,480
Speaker 4: not quite good enough, and expectations kill you sometimes.

843
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:00,440
Speaker 2: What were they? Number one? Number two? And they apple

844
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 2: to start this season next to Texas.

845
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:04,359
Speaker 3: James Franklin said this was the best team he'd ever

846
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:07,240
Speaker 3: had talent wise at Penn State. This is Fox Football

847
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:09,919
Speaker 3: Saturday with Kevin Figures and Adam Alston coming up next.

848
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:11,920
Speaker 2: What do we got to Adam? This is Halloween?

849
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:16,560
Speaker 4: Are my horribly long list of Halloween movies. It's a

850
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:18,840
Speaker 4: tradition unlike any other here on FNA.

851
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:21,520
Speaker 2: We'll get to it next here. Listen to Fox Sports

852
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:27,240
Speaker 2: Radio welcome f and a cotton Kevin Figures.

853
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 3: Adam Alson back with you guys on Fox Football Saturday.

854
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:31,839
Speaker 3: All right, Adam, not a lot of time, so let's

855
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:32,319
Speaker 3: get to it.

856
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:35,160
Speaker 4: Mark, we got some scary music here, because I got

857
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:39,720
Speaker 4: eight different categories and classifications for what I call Adam's

858
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,400
Speaker 4: horribly long Halloween movie marathon.

859
00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:44,640
Speaker 2: It's long, people, trust me.

860
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:48,400
Speaker 4: We'll get to like two categories exactly. The first category

861
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:52,719
Speaker 4: is old but not Abbott and Costella meet Frankenstein.

862
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 2: Old and campy and crappy. What there you?

863
00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,720
Speaker 4: I mean, these movies might still scare you, as my point,

864
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,440
Speaker 4: Like the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

865
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:09,080
Speaker 2: It's raw, it's crainy. I thought it would go well.

866
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:10,440
Speaker 4: I mean, I know there have been a lot of

867
00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 4: these movies since, but the original pretty good. Roman Polanski's

868
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:19,200
Speaker 4: Rosemary's Baby before he Fled the Country also good, rightfully

869
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:23,160
Speaker 4: so the original Halloween and one of my top ten

870
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 4: favorite movies of all time that I just saw at

871
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:25,839
Speaker 4: the Hollywood Bowl.

872
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:32,080
Speaker 2: That would be Jaws. We're just talking about. We're talking

873
00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:34,000
Speaker 2: about shocks just a minute ago with the pre yeah.

874
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 4: Speaking of the devil, and they are the devil. The

875
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:40,239
Speaker 4: original Omen not the remake with Julius Stiles.

876
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:42,839
Speaker 3: No, sorry, won't get a TechEd by this by that devil.

877
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:44,399
Speaker 3: If you don't go to hell, just don't enter into

878
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:44,759
Speaker 3: their larry.

879
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:45,400
Speaker 2: It'll be fine.

880
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:50,319
Speaker 4: Maybe the scariest on this list for this category the

881
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:55,640
Speaker 4: Exorcist oh Man, which he does with the crucifix. Not cool.

882
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,240
Speaker 2: I probably shouldn't have seen that when I was like seven, Okay,

883
00:37:58,440 --> 00:37:59,920
Speaker 2: that explains a lot. Keavin, Yeah that.

884
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:03,640
Speaker 3: I think I saw a quick show which I actually

885
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 3: was just speaking of campy. I don't know if that's

886
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:06,440
Speaker 3: on your list anywhere or not, but I saw that

887
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:07,000
Speaker 3: when I was young.

888
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:10,400
Speaker 2: You might be in here, okay. Faces of Death fit in.

889
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:13,000
Speaker 2: I hope you didn't see that too, y'all.

890
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm sorry if those weren't enough to leave your

891
00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:18,239
Speaker 4: head spinning, since we were just talking about the extracist.

892
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 4: Up next, we have the category eighties. The eighties kind

893
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:27,040
Speaker 4: of ruled the horror genre, with classics like The Shining

894
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 4: Red Rum Nightmare on Elm Street one and three.

895
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 3: Dream Warriors also saw part one of that series when

896
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 3: I was young.

897
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:36,440
Speaker 2: That's rough.

898
00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:42,320
Speaker 4: Uh huh, the ending is not okay. Pultzergeist with Coach

899
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 4: Craig T. Nelson where nothing is resolved, they just jump

900
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,279
Speaker 4: into the station wagon and a whole ass out of there.

901
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:52,439
Speaker 4: Two of my favorites that certainly qualifies horror movies would

902
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,239
Speaker 4: be Clive Barker's Hell Raiser one and two.

903
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:57,759
Speaker 2: I never saw the Hall Raiser movies. Watch the first two.

904
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 2: Do It Not with Your Son The Thing with Kurt Russell.

905
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:04,759
Speaker 2: That's a good one.

906
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,960
Speaker 4: One of the best and most twisted sequels with little

907
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:12,719
Speaker 4: to no resemblance to the original, would be returned to

908
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 4: Wizard of Oz. It's got the hot mangled teeth girl

909
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:19,839
Speaker 4: from water Boy in it. She's like Dorothy in it,

910
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,880
Speaker 4: and I guess it's closer to the books. It's actually

911
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 4: more accurate to the books than the Wizard of Oz is,

912
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:28,279
Speaker 4: even though Wizard of Oz, you know that gets all

913
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:28,840
Speaker 4: the fame.

914
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:29,840
Speaker 2: With Judy Garbos.

915
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:36,040
Speaker 4: Jeff Goldbloom is in David Cronenberg's The Fly, that's a

916
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 4: good one. Lastly, in this category we have Friday the

917
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 4: Thirteenth with Kevin Bacon and Jason. A few years ago,

918
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 4: for some reason, I watched all of the Friday the

919
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:51,760
Speaker 4: Thirteenth movies. It felt like more. The fourth one's pretty

920
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 4: good with Corey Feldman and Crispin Glover. And I also

921
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 4: enjoyed Jason X and that's the one with Jason and

922
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:00,919
Speaker 4: out of Space for something. It is okay, I never

923
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:04,960
Speaker 4: saw that one. And also it looks like Jason is

924
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:10,040
Speaker 4: wearing Judge or not Judge dread lord Z's oh lord

925
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:13,600
Speaker 4: Zen from the Power Rangers mask. He's got a new

926
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:16,879
Speaker 4: costume and it looks just like lord Z. Like I'm

927
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:19,840
Speaker 4: expecting Rita Ropoulsa and gold Or to jump out of nowhere.

928
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:23,719
Speaker 4: I don't, but yeah, those are the first two categories.

929
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,920
Speaker 4: We will have more oh next week because it's a

930
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 4: horribly long list of Halloween movies.

931
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,400
Speaker 3: Oh, looking forward to it. Halloween, some of our favorite

950
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:22,400

Speaker 4: here that you're going to learn about on Fox Sports Radio.

964
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:52,920
Speaker 4: We've been doing on F and A forever. Just wait

966
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:57,040
Speaker 4: I'm looking out for. I ain't got that. Mcclon's a list.

967
00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:58,200
Speaker 2: I got fucked.

968
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:02,160
Speaker 4: This list is a little bit truncated compared to my

969
00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:05,520
Speaker 4: Halloween list. We only have six categories here, but we

970
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:06,480
Speaker 4: cherish them all.

971
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:07,879
Speaker 2: Mark starting us.

972
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:11,240
Speaker 1: Off time for the NFL six pack.

973
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 3: With our first category here for the NFL six pack.

974
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:18,280
Speaker 3: As we hit week seven already, it's insane.

975
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 1: Hot seat heat check.

976
00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 3: Yes, the coature player under the most pressure headed into

977
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:24,480
Speaker 3: this weekend, Adam, who do you have?

978
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:28,200
Speaker 4: My hot seat? Heat Check goes to a team with

979
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:31,239
Speaker 4: more turnover than a pillow on a humid summer night

980
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 4: in Nashville, because no one has had more of it

981
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,840
Speaker 4: than the Tennessee Titans over the last two and a

982
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:41,239
Speaker 4: half years. Let me go through this list here December

983
00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 4: twenty twenty. Second GM John Robinson gets fired up January

984
00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:53,200
Speaker 4: twenty twenty. Third, Ran Carthen gets hired as their news

985
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:58,400
Speaker 4: You Am then January twenty twenty four. Mike Vrabel gets

986
00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:03,960
Speaker 4: fired up January twenty twenty four. Assistant GM Chad Brinker

987
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:07,440
Speaker 4: promoted to president of football operations. And then you have

988
00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:11,040
Speaker 4: Brian Callahan getting hired as head coach in January of

989
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:14,080
Speaker 4: twenty twenty four. Of course, then the GM gets fired

990
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:17,200
Speaker 4: in ran cartin the next year in January of twenty

991
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:22,360
Speaker 4: twenty five, and now Mike Morganzi is hired as the

992
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:28,000
Speaker 4: GM right and Brian Callahan just got fired this past week.

993
00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:30,520
Speaker 3: It is sounds like a very stable organization they have

994
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:31,400
Speaker 3: over there in Tennessee.

995
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:32,439
Speaker 2: It's rough, you're out.

996
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:37,320
Speaker 4: My hot seat isn't just on interim head coach Mike McCoy,

997
00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:41,680
Speaker 4: it's on whoever is named the next head coach because

998
00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:47,400
Speaker 4: the clock is ticking. Also, GM, Mike Morganzi, he's next.

999
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:51,120
Speaker 4: Probably since we're talking horror movies, you're next. They get

1000
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:54,719
Speaker 4: to hiring and firing faster than Trump and the Apprentice,

1001
00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 4: like that unnamed next head coach has a seat hotter

1002
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,520
Speaker 4: than the Nashville High chicken they'll be serving at the

1003
00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:05,160
Speaker 4: new Nissan Stadium they're building if enough of the construction

1004
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:07,759
Speaker 4: workers are around to finish the project. Due to all

1005
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,520
Speaker 4: the firings they do over there, I know the NFL

1006
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:13,359
Speaker 4: stands for not for long, but the Titans must think

1007
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,400
Speaker 4: it stands for next fire looming. It must feel like

1008
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:19,600
Speaker 4: a horror movie they're working there, because whenever the daughter

1009
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:23,239
Speaker 4: of Bud Adams now owner Amy Adams, not the actress,

1010
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 4: walks past your office. She walks past your office. It's

1011
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:29,359
Speaker 4: like the grim Reaper, you know, when he walks by

1012
00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:32,960
Speaker 4: some flowers and they wilt. She walks by your office

1013
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:36,400
Speaker 4: and it's like walking. Papers just show up to just

1014
00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:38,920
Speaker 4: appear at your desk, like you're about to bite into

1015
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:42,280
Speaker 4: a sandwich, and instead it turns into termination of employment

1016
00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:45,440
Speaker 4: paperwork that magically appears in your hands.

1017
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:46,680
Speaker 2: Instead, you're out.

1018
00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:51,040
Speaker 4: This is Ari Gold from Entourage level of turnover happening

1019
00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:55,080
Speaker 4: in Tennessee Titans. They'd fire their fans too, but they

1020
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:56,759
Speaker 4: probably wouldn't be able to get any new ones with

1021
00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:59,239
Speaker 4: the dumpster fire of an organization they have going on

1022
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:02,800
Speaker 4: right now. They're probably gonna tell Scott Shapiro to fire

1023
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:04,799
Speaker 4: me just for saying this about them, like.

1024
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:05,960
Speaker 2: It's all they know.

1025
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:09,320
Speaker 4: But like on the football field, you have no power

1026
00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:12,400
Speaker 4: here Titans. At Fox Sports Radio, they let us speak

1027
00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:16,600
Speaker 4: freely and uh yeah, so my next hot seat is

1028
00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:20,160
Speaker 4: for the hypothetical hire that they have after Mike McCoy

1029
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:22,840
Speaker 4: doesn't end up getting the job as the interim coach

1030
00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:24,600
Speaker 4: with the Titans, I will.

1031
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:25,879
Speaker 2: Say, and look, you bring in cam Ward.

1032
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:28,239
Speaker 3: You know, the cupboard is mostly bear there for the

1033
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 3: weapons that you do place around him. So I don't

1034
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:33,680
Speaker 3: know if Brian Callahan's a good coach or not, but

1035
00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 3: I do think the deck was kind of stacked against him.

1036
00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:36,239
Speaker 2: You gotta give it.

1037
00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:38,880
Speaker 3: If you're gonna allow a guy to draft a quarterback

1038
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:41,879
Speaker 3: first overall and allow that quarterback to start from day one,

1039
00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:44,200
Speaker 3: you have to realize there's gonna be some growing pains

1040
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:44,560
Speaker 3: there too.

1041
00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:49,160
Speaker 4: If I'm Brian Callahan I'm telling whoever my next possible

1042
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:52,160
Speaker 4: employer that, like, hey, I worked for the Titans, Like

1043
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:54,880
Speaker 4: get a break here exactly, and ain't me it's.

1044
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:57,080
Speaker 2: Them right right you? It's me? Yeah.

1045
00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:59,320
Speaker 3: I mean even Mike Rabel I think called Brian Callahan

1046
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:00,799
Speaker 3: after us. It was like, hey, they fired me, they

1047
00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 3: got you two man, Hey, I feel you, you know

1048
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:04,719
Speaker 3: I understand, trust me.

1049
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:06,680
Speaker 2: It makes sense. Who do you got in your hot seat?

1050
00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:07,239
Speaker 2: Heat check?

1051
00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:10,400
Speaker 3: I'm going Aaron Glenn versus your Carolina Panthers this weekend

1052
00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:14,120
Speaker 3: with the Jets. Oh so yes, this season. I want

1053
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:15,880
Speaker 3: to call it a season from hell from the Jets.

1054
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:17,560
Speaker 3: I think that's a little bit of an overstatement, but

1055
00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:18,479
Speaker 3: it's not that far off.

1056
00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:20,080
Speaker 2: We just mentioned Hell Razor.

1057
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,080
Speaker 3: We did, but you realize they work in the rank

1058
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:24,960
Speaker 3: in the lower third of every meaningful statistical category on

1059
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:25,879
Speaker 3: both sides of the ball.

1060
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:28,440
Speaker 2: They're not dead last and everyone they're not dead last,

1061
00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:30,160
Speaker 2: so they at least they have that going for him.

1062
00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:32,680
Speaker 3: It's probably the Titans there, which is glary considering how

1063
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:34,799
Speaker 3: much raw talent they have. You can argue that salz

1064
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:37,040
Speaker 3: Gardner one of the top three corners in the entire league.

1065
00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:40,960
Speaker 3: Garrett Wilson, top fifteen receiver Bresall had a really promising

1066
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:44,279
Speaker 3: rookie season after a great career at Iowa State. It's

1067
00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:46,560
Speaker 3: just hard to fathom that they can be this bad.

1068
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:49,520
Speaker 3: The issue is their record is ozho to six, and

1069
00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:51,319
Speaker 3: as bad as they looked in some of these games,

1070
00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:54,280
Speaker 3: like the Bills and the Cowboys, they've been mostly competitive

1071
00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:55,879
Speaker 3: in a lot of these They've just not been able

1072
00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 3: to finish. They've shot themselves in the foot so many

1073
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:00,239
Speaker 3: times throughout the season, and.

1074
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:02,000
Speaker 4: I was impressed their first two losses.

1075
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:03,799
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, we'll leave it go back to London.

1076
00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:06,920
Speaker 3: Last week against Denver, just poor coaching, running out the

1077
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:08,799
Speaker 3: clock at the end of the half without lining up

1078
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:10,719
Speaker 3: for a field goal, decidedn't to go forward on fourth

1079
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:12,840
Speaker 3: and eight. I'd rather you try to kick a sixty

1080
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:15,279
Speaker 3: four yard field goal. You saw what your offense was

1081
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:17,839
Speaker 3: unable to do that entire game. Kick the field goal

1082
00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:19,120
Speaker 3: and take a shot in the dark at it that

1083
00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:20,200
Speaker 3: doing something like that.

1084
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:22,719
Speaker 4: They got helium in those kicker balls, those specially.

1085
00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:24,840
Speaker 3: Those balls that they have now they're one of the

1086
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:26,799
Speaker 3: most undisciplined teams in the league when it comes to

1087
00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:29,600
Speaker 3: penalties as well. So I'm rarely ever a fan of

1088
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:32,080
Speaker 3: firing your coach in his first year unless he like

1089
00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:34,279
Speaker 3: loses the locker room or something like that, which I

1090
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:36,640
Speaker 3: don't see that necessarily happening right now. I still feel

1091
00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:38,680
Speaker 3: like the players do like him and that they playing

1092
00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:39,160
Speaker 3: card for him.

1093
00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:41,080
Speaker 4: Well see how they feel after the loose to the Panthers.

1094
00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:42,839
Speaker 2: Well, we'll see one thing. I will say.

1095
00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:45,480
Speaker 3: The Panthers all of their victories have been at home,

1096
00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:47,279
Speaker 3: this is fair. All their losses have been on the road,

1097
00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:48,600
Speaker 3: and this game's going to be in New Jersey.

1098
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:49,160
Speaker 2: Accurate.

1099
00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:51,400
Speaker 3: Dan Campbell will now remember who was oh to thirteen

1100
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:54,000
Speaker 3: to start his career with the Detroit Lions, and we

1101
00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:56,239
Speaker 3: see what they've turned into. So we talked to last

1102
00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:59,600
Speaker 3: segment or last hour about James Franklin or you know,

1103
00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:01,839
Speaker 3: pulling the plug on coaches maybe a little bit too early.

1104
00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:02,480
Speaker 2: That's just different.

1105
00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:04,400
Speaker 3: James Franklin have been there for a long period of

1106
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:06,759
Speaker 3: time at that point, but just knowing when a guy

1107
00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:08,319
Speaker 3: may be in the position to be able to turn

1108
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:10,520
Speaker 3: things around. So I don't know if the Jets have

1109
00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:12,520
Speaker 3: must wins on their schedule at this point in time,

1110
00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:14,279
Speaker 3: but if you look at their next few games home

1111
00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:18,279
Speaker 3: against Carolina on Sunday at the Bengals home against Cleveland, you.

1112
00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:19,920
Speaker 2: Gotta win at least one of those games.

1113
00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:23,240
Speaker 3: And I'm circling this game against Carolina, even though Carolina's

1114
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:23,919
Speaker 3: been playing well.

1115
00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:25,960
Speaker 2: Oh, this is a direct shot my way. It's a

1116
00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:28,560
Speaker 2: road game, maybe a second road game Carolina.

1117
00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:31,040
Speaker 3: Outside of one game against Arizona where they needed a

1118
00:48:31,080 --> 00:48:33,520
Speaker 3: furious comeback, they've been blown out in every game they've

1119
00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:33,960
Speaker 3: played on.

1120
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:34,840
Speaker 2: The road this seasons.

1121
00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:38,080
Speaker 4: Old stuff, old stuff. Yeah, I'm taking the Jets.

1122
00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:40,319
Speaker 3: I think they're there on the hot seat This is

1123
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:42,400
Speaker 3: one of those games, one of these next three or

1124
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:44,880
Speaker 3: four games that they absolutely have to win, and I

1125
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:46,720
Speaker 3: do think they actually get it done this weekend against

1126
00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:47,360
Speaker 3: Adams Panthers.

1127
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:48,960
Speaker 2: Well, they're like a plus one, right.

1128
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:50,920
Speaker 4: We'll get to two on two off a little bit

1129
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,560
Speaker 4: later with our NFL gambling picks, but I think it's

1130
00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:55,840
Speaker 4: almost to pick them. The Jets are getting a point.

1131
00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:56,280
Speaker 2: Correct.

1132
00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:59,319
Speaker 4: You're at home against the Panthers who have yet to

1133
00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:02,279
Speaker 4: win on the road and still have Bryce Young and

1134
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 4: they still have a ton of issues. And I know

1135
00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:06,560
Speaker 4: they beat the Cowboys, and I did pick them to

1136
00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:06,880
Speaker 4: do that.

1137
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:08,880
Speaker 3: Did you pick Rico Dawdles to the run for five

1138
00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:10,720
Speaker 3: hundred yards against the Cowboys defense.

1139
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:13,840
Speaker 4: I wasn't a believer in him at first because he

1140
00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:16,640
Speaker 4: had two hundred yards his first game rushing the football.

1141
00:49:16,680 --> 00:49:20,120
Speaker 4: I didn't want to get too excited. But now, Kevin,

1142
00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:22,280
Speaker 4: now I can't help.

1143
00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:24,319
Speaker 2: Myself get excited. I understand we got a.

1144
00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:26,720
Speaker 4: Running back again on John and Stuart.

1145
00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:32,080
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, yeah, D'Angelo Williams, Steve Stephen Davis, Stephen Davis, Biakabatuca.

1146
00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:34,640
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna have to get another cat and name

1147
00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:37,680
Speaker 4: it Rico because I got one cat named Tuca.

1148
00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:40,480
Speaker 2: Why not? Is he gonna be that good? He may be,

1149
00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:41,120
Speaker 2: we'll see.

1150
00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:43,279
Speaker 3: One thing that I'm excited about is our next guest,

1151
00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:45,920
Speaker 3: the Great Noah Eagle from NBC and Peacock, gonna come

1152

00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:39,440
Speaker 4: Pitbull song. Yes, our guests coming up. Big fan of

1173
00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:40,359
Speaker 4: mister three oh five?

1174
00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:42,560
Speaker 2: Oh was he really was not aware of that.

1175
00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:45,440
Speaker 4: Every time at the three oh five mark of a

1176
00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:48,839
Speaker 4: quarter during a Clippers game, is Noah Eagle was your

1177
00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:51,799
Speaker 4: radio voice of the Clippers for four seasons, he would say,

1178
00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:52,560
Speaker 4: shout out pit Bull.

1179
00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:57,040
Speaker 2: I did not know that.

1180
00:50:57,280 --> 00:50:59,959
Speaker 3: Good catch by Brie. Yeah, how's a deep cut, great

1181
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:01,040
Speaker 3: pull there, great pull there.

1182
00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:04,200
Speaker 4: That the actual song, Well, it's kind of a guilty

1183
00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:06,919
Speaker 4: pleasure banger. But still wait for you or for Noah,

1184
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:10,359
Speaker 4: or for both of you, for Noah walking out to that.

1185
00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:14,160
Speaker 2: Maybe there's some irony to pitfull and DJ Dent's playing

1186
00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:15,960
Speaker 2: that at the into it Dom these days or what's

1187
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:16,359
Speaker 2: going on.

1188
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:19,440
Speaker 4: I don't think that's allowed there. Okay, it didn't make

1189
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:20,400
Speaker 4: its way from Crypto.

1190
00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:22,799
Speaker 3: We'll get back into the NFL six pack coming up

1191
00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:25,040
Speaker 3: in about twenty minutes or sober right now, as Adam mentioned,

1192
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,239
Speaker 3: let's bring in the man dubbed the Baby Goat and

1193
00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:29,640
Speaker 3: talk about the USC Notre Dame game is among other

1194
00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:31,080
Speaker 3: things coming up later this afternoon.

1195
00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:35,360
Speaker 2: Adam, I was drinking dud. Thank you, Donny.

1196
00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:38,880
Speaker 4: Well, this and a twelve team playoff would diminish the

1197
00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:41,040
Speaker 4: regular season. But it sure feels like we got an

1198
00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:44,120
Speaker 4: early elimination game in week eight, as the loser has

1199
00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:46,520
Speaker 4: a slim to none chance of making it, and as

1200
00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:49,200
Speaker 4: Charles Barkley would say, slim just got shot last week,

1201
00:51:49,320 --> 00:51:52,680
Speaker 4: and without a future game scheduled between USC and Notre

1202
00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:55,839
Speaker 4: Dame currently the fallout that could come after this one.

1203
00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:56,279
Speaker 2: Oh boy.

1204
00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:59,520
Speaker 3: Speaking of fallout, boy, you know it's on Big ten

1205
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:03,319
Speaker 3: Saturday on NBC, and that means it's time to reconnect

1206
00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:03,920
Speaker 3: with YG.

1207
00:52:04,120 --> 00:52:06,880
Speaker 4: It's the young Goat, Noah Eagle joining F and A

1208
00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:10,520
Speaker 4: on FSR because we actually got friends in high places

1209
00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:13,120
Speaker 4: and you'll see him up in South Bend with Todd

1210
00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:16,640
Speaker 4: Blackledge later today. No, sorry, I missed you last week,

1211
00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:19,200
Speaker 4: but Fox Sports Radio has us doing some big work here.

1212
00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:20,799
Speaker 2: We're happy to do it. We're happy to have you

1213
00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:22,279
Speaker 2: on right now. Thanks for doing it.

1214
00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:26,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, well that was I feel like you're like Island

1215
00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:28,880
Speaker 5: spinning hot fire. That was just play.

1216
00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:32,920
Speaker 9: Bars in top tier of stuff right THEREA.

1217
00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:33,640
Speaker 2: You deserve it, my guy.

1218
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:37,400
Speaker 4: So Lincoln Riley already kind of set the table saying

1219
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:40,239
Speaker 4: he's less of a fan of this permanent fixture in

1220
00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:43,160
Speaker 4: the in the schedule, with Notre Dame being on the

1221
00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:47,239
Speaker 4: schedule for USC every year. Marcut Freeman says, it's too important.

1222
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:49,799
Speaker 4: You got to have it. Are you a traditionalist? Do

1223
00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:51,280
Speaker 4: we need this matchup every season?

1224
00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:54,160
Speaker 5: Yeah? I believe we do.

1225
00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:56,319
Speaker 9: I think that it's good for the sport and just

1226
00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:58,800
Speaker 9: getting ready for this game and the twentieth anniversary of

1227
00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:02,759
Speaker 9: the Bush Push, going back and rewatching an extended cut

1228
00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:05,440
Speaker 9: of that game where Notre Dame comes running out to

1229
00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:07,840
Speaker 9: a full stadium, is number nine in the country and

1230
00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:12,760
Speaker 9: green tops with gold pants and gold helmets, and Joe

1231
00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:16,080
Speaker 9: Mountana on the sideline and Tim Brown on the sideline,

1232
00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:19,120
Speaker 9: and then UFC, the defending champion, number one in the

1233
00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:22,320
Speaker 9: country comes running out and you've got Markets.

1234
00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:24,120
Speaker 5: Allen on the sideline, Ronnie a Lot on the.

1235
00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:26,600
Speaker 9: Sideline and wearing their traditional uniforms.

1236
00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:27,480
Speaker 5: It just hits.

1237
00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:30,440
Speaker 9: There's something different about the air that comes around and

1238
00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:33,239
Speaker 9: talking to these teams and talking about players that have

1239
00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:35,839
Speaker 9: been a part of it, you really feel that, and

1240
00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:38,839
Speaker 9: so I'm looking forward to at least experiencing it up

1241
00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:39,680
Speaker 9: close and personal.

1242
00:53:39,719 --> 00:53:40,080
Speaker 5: But I do.

1243
00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:43,000
Speaker 9: I was talking with my partner Todd Black was last night,

1244
00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:45,480
Speaker 9: and he said there are six games that he believed

1245
00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:49,680
Speaker 9: should be played every year, this one Army Navy, the

1246
00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:54,359
Speaker 9: Iron Bowl, as well as Texas, Oklahoma, Florida, Georgia down

1247
00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:57,880
Speaker 9: in Jacksonville, and Michigan Ohio State. Those six, it just

1248
00:53:57,920 --> 00:53:59,920
Speaker 9: feels like college football. And when you think of the

1249
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:02,360
Speaker 9: as matchups, you think year after year some of the

1250
00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:03,240
Speaker 9: iconic moments.

1251
00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:04,600
Speaker 5: This fits that now.

1252
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:07,320
Speaker 3: Noah, USC's big gripe, and I believe their Adjen Cohen

1253
00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:09,080
Speaker 3: has talked about this is not the fact that they

1254
00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:11,600
Speaker 3: play the game, it's when they play the game. Traditionally

1255
00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:14,000
Speaker 3: in October and South Bend the last game of the

1256
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:18,120
Speaker 3: regular season in Los Angeles the following year, and USC says,

1257
00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:20,480
Speaker 3: because of their tough Big Ten schedule, because they have

1258
00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:23,160
Speaker 3: to travel basically coast to coast, they would prefer to

1259
00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:25,800
Speaker 3: play this game earlier in the fall, early in the season,

1260
00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:28,319
Speaker 3: and Notre Dame has been resistant to that. Do you

1261
00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:32,560
Speaker 3: understand USC's stance on that and their unwillingness to want

1262
00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:34,359
Speaker 3: to budge off of their stance. We want to play

1263
00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:36,080
Speaker 3: the game, but we basically want to play it earlier

1264
00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:37,359
Speaker 3: in the season as opposed to later.

1265
00:54:38,360 --> 00:54:40,880
Speaker 9: Yeah, guys, I think I understand both sides of it,

1266
00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:42,279
Speaker 9: and I think that's key in all of this.

1267
00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:45,600
Speaker 5: You have to understand it from both a business and the.

1268
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:48,640
Speaker 9: Overall game point of view. From the business point of

1269
00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:51,680
Speaker 9: view for USC, there's a lot more business to be

1270
00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:55,840
Speaker 9: had outside of it, because realistically, in the new twelve

1271
00:54:55,880 --> 00:54:58,279
Speaker 9: team playoff, as you just talked about, first of all,

1272
00:54:58,280 --> 00:55:02,440
Speaker 9: it does create opportunity. Now instead of diminishing these games

1273
00:55:02,520 --> 00:55:06,120
Speaker 9: against two loss Notre Dame team and a one loss

1274
00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:09,480
Speaker 9: USC team that would just be hoping and praying for

1275
00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:11,640
Speaker 9: things to come their way in a four team playoff, well,

1276
00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:14,680
Speaker 9: with the twelve team playoff, a two loss another name

1277
00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:17,440
Speaker 9: team that runs the table is almost all but certainly

1278
00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:21,120
Speaker 9: in and a so you know, anywhere from two to

1279
00:55:21,160 --> 00:55:23,239
Speaker 9: three loss USC team is still going to have a

1280
00:55:23,239 --> 00:55:26,200
Speaker 9: punchers chance. Two losses you feel like they're guaranteed to

1281
00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:28,319
Speaker 9: be in. And so this is a huge game with

1282
00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:31,840
Speaker 9: massive ramifications as a result. But with that being said,

1283
00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:35,160
Speaker 9: from a USC perspective, when you have nine conference games

1284
00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:38,280
Speaker 9: and one of the top two conferences in college football

1285
00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:40,760
Speaker 9: in college sports, and depending on the year some years,

1286
00:55:41,040 --> 00:55:44,760
Speaker 9: the toughest conference in college football, that's already a challenge.

1287
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:46,480
Speaker 9: The second part of that is when they're playing in

1288
00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:49,440
Speaker 9: the Pac twelve, the majority of the schools they're playing

1289
00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:53,360
Speaker 9: are still relatively West Coast faced, and now the majority

1290
00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:55,560
Speaker 9: of the schools they're playing, the majority of their road

1291
00:55:55,560 --> 00:55:58,040
Speaker 9: games are going to be much further travel, so it's

1292
00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:01,239
Speaker 9: adding another layer there. And then you just get the

1293
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:04,280
Speaker 9: fact that it's a really good team outside of playing

1294
00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:06,839
Speaker 9: in really good conference play. And so one of those

1295
00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:08,480
Speaker 9: non conferences that for a lot.

1296
00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:09,760
Speaker 5: Of these teams in the Big Ten.

1297
00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:13,799
Speaker 9: Is essentially three wins against three teams that you're just

1298
00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:16,560
Speaker 9: clearly better than, is taken away, and so maybe you

1299
00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:18,680
Speaker 9: only have two of those games and it's one game

1300
00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:20,320
Speaker 9: that you really have to get up for. And then

1301
00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:22,319
Speaker 9: there's the part of it that you just said, which

1302
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:24,920
Speaker 9: is the scheduling part, and you're putting it smack in

1303
00:56:24,960 --> 00:56:27,160
Speaker 9: the middle of their Big Ten slate, which can be

1304
00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:29,759
Speaker 9: good or bad. You can say that last week, right

1305
00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:32,000
Speaker 9: in the middle of their Michigan of their Big Ten

1306
00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:34,400
Speaker 9: slate against Michigan, they had their best game of the season.

1307
00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:36,719
Speaker 9: And they're hitting their stride right now and they're in

1308
00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:38,719
Speaker 9: more rhythm now than they would be early in the

1309
00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:41,640
Speaker 9: season when they might be more likely to suffer a

1310
00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:42,080
Speaker 9: loss to.

1311
00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,560
Speaker 5: A Notre Dame team. So I see that both sides

1312
00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:46,400
Speaker 5: of it there, and I see both sides of it.

1313
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:48,040
Speaker 5: Obviously for Notre Dame, you know.

1314
00:56:48,040 --> 00:56:50,920
Speaker 9: The idea of the fact of it is Notre Dame

1315
00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:53,840
Speaker 9: is an independent team and the more quality opponents that

1316
00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:56,600
Speaker 9: can get on their consistent schedule, the better.

1317
00:56:56,719 --> 00:57:00,040
Speaker 5: And USC, no matter what is going on, is always.

1318
00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:03,160
Speaker 9: Going to be at minimum a fairly quality and with

1319
00:57:03,239 --> 00:57:06,239
Speaker 9: Lincoln Riley a highly quality at times opponent, And so

1320
00:57:06,360 --> 00:57:08,960
Speaker 9: I think seeing both sides of the coins important in this.

1321
00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:11,399
Speaker 9: But at the end of the day, I go back

1322
00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:14,200
Speaker 9: to the game itself and what it means for college football,

1323
00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:17,120
Speaker 9: what it means for tradition, what it means for both

1324
00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:19,440
Speaker 9: these programs, and just keeping them at the top of

1325
00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:19,840
Speaker 9: the sport.

1326
00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:24,240
Speaker 4: Noah Eagle is our guest here on FNA on FSR. So, Noah,

1327
00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:26,800
Speaker 4: you were on the call for USC Michigan, USC winning

1328
00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:30,640
Speaker 4: thirty one to thirteen last week at the Coliseum. What's

1329
00:57:30,680 --> 00:57:33,520
Speaker 4: impressed you most about them hitting their stride? As you

1330
00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:36,480
Speaker 4: put it here, it seems like Lincoln Riley finally has

1331
00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:39,320
Speaker 4: some balance on the offensive side, like you had with Oklahoma.

1332
00:57:40,360 --> 00:57:42,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know. Some that's probably an understatement.

1333
00:57:42,800 --> 00:57:45,880
Speaker 9: They're basically fifty to fifty in terms of running pass

1334
00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:47,160
Speaker 9: and give.

1335
00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:47,840
Speaker 5: Them a ton of credit.

1336
00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:49,520
Speaker 9: They've been playing a lot of this season with the

1337
00:57:49,560 --> 00:57:53,040
Speaker 9: banged up offensive line down three starters, but I would

1338
00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:55,800
Speaker 9: say just the.

1339
00:57:55,080 --> 00:57:55,960
Speaker 5: Next man up.

1340
00:57:56,600 --> 00:57:58,720
Speaker 9: Last week was probably the best example of that. So

1341
00:57:59,240 --> 00:58:02,640
Speaker 9: you're starting center, Killian O'Connor is out, You've got Jenrey

1342
00:58:02,720 --> 00:58:05,640
Speaker 9: Raid who comes in and plays very well. Elijah Page

1343
00:58:05,640 --> 00:58:07,640
Speaker 9: has missed a couple of games, he's still out, and

1344
00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:09,600
Speaker 9: so you've shifted around guys up front.

1345
00:58:09,880 --> 00:58:12,200
Speaker 5: They had one of their offensive linemen.

1346
00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:16,160
Speaker 9: That was basically just I guess he got rejected for

1347
00:58:16,280 --> 00:58:19,080
Speaker 9: having a final year of eligibility, so they expect to

1348
00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:20,920
Speaker 9: have a starter that's been out for a whole year

1349
00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:23,200
Speaker 9: and will be So give them credit up front, But

1350
00:58:23,240 --> 00:58:25,400
Speaker 9: then you lose your top two running backs and Waymond

1351
00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:28,480
Speaker 9: Jordan had been off the charge good all season. Eli

1352
00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:30,959
Speaker 9: Sanders was the perfect compliment to him as a pass

1353
00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:34,080
Speaker 9: catcher mostly out of backfield. And to lose both those

1354
00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:36,440
Speaker 9: guys early in the game the way they did, and

1355
00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:39,120
Speaker 9: to have to thrust in King Miller, a walk on

1356
00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:42,960
Speaker 9: red shirt freshman and have him run wild against not

1357
00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:47,280
Speaker 9: just anybody, but a Michigan defense that's prided themselves as

1358
00:58:47,360 --> 00:58:51,040
Speaker 9: being one of the most physical teams and physical defensive

1359
00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:53,360
Speaker 9: units in the entire Big Ten, which.

1360
00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:55,480
Speaker 5: Is one of the most physical leagues in all of

1361
00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:56,360
Speaker 5: college football.

1362
00:58:56,400 --> 00:58:58,240
Speaker 9: I think it was a statement type of game for

1363
00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:01,040
Speaker 9: USC and you could see it the way Lincoln Riley

1364
00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:03,320
Speaker 9: was reacting on the sideline. He's not always a guy

1365
00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:05,800
Speaker 9: that wears his emotions on his sleeves, and you can

1366
00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:07,880
Speaker 9: see the big smile. You could see he was getting

1367
00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:09,160
Speaker 9: fired up, even after.

1368
00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:09,960
Speaker 5: Just field goals.

1369
00:59:10,400 --> 00:59:12,560
Speaker 9: Anything that they could do that he felt like was

1370
00:59:12,560 --> 00:59:14,280
Speaker 9: putting them ahead of the curve.

1371
00:59:14,600 --> 00:59:15,640
Speaker 5: And I think the thing that he.

1372
00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:17,840
Speaker 9: Said that really stuck out to me after the game

1373
00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:20,480
Speaker 9: and this week as we got ready for this game.

1374
00:59:21,240 --> 00:59:23,520
Speaker 9: They came out and they went right down the field

1375
00:59:23,560 --> 00:59:26,400
Speaker 9: and Jade Mayaba, who I still haven't mentioned and deserves

1376
00:59:26,440 --> 00:59:28,080
Speaker 9: all the cred in the world for the way he's

1377
00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:31,200
Speaker 9: played and improved and continues to just look more.

1378
00:59:31,080 --> 00:59:33,960
Speaker 5: And more comfortable. But Maava leaves them down the field.

1379
00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:36,160
Speaker 9: They score a touchdown to go up seven to nothing.

1380
00:59:36,200 --> 00:59:38,240
Speaker 5: They get the ball back and they're driving to.

1381
00:59:38,200 --> 00:59:41,440
Speaker 9: Go up fourteen nothing, and Lake McCree, the tight end,

1382
00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:44,880
Speaker 9: fumbles on what was a thirty yard dash on basically

1383
00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:48,920
Speaker 9: a screenplay, and momentum kind of went toward Michigan.

1384
00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:49,720
Speaker 5: They tied the game.

1385
00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:52,640
Speaker 9: He say, Okay, the Wolverines are starting to kind of

1386
00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:55,160
Speaker 9: exert their will a little bit. And then right before

1387
00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:57,640
Speaker 9: the end of the first half, USC goes down the

1388
00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:01,280
Speaker 9: field and just a spectacular touch down catch for Makayle Lemon,

1389
01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:03,919
Speaker 9: who right now is playing like arguably the best wide

1390
01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:06,480
Speaker 9: receiver in college football, which is saying something giving the

1391
01:00:06,520 --> 01:00:09,640
Speaker 9: talent at that position. And what Lincoln Riley said is

1392
01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:11,600
Speaker 9: he loved the fact that.

1393
01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:13,800
Speaker 5: The momentum looked like he was getting away.

1394
01:00:13,880 --> 01:00:17,720
Speaker 9: And probably over the last two seasons in particular, those

1395
01:00:17,880 --> 01:00:21,800
Speaker 9: USC teams, when momentum started to slip away, that's when

1396
01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:23,880
Speaker 9: things would really go downhill on snowball.

1397
01:00:24,200 --> 01:00:25,480
Speaker 5: And this year's team.

1398
01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:28,480
Speaker 9: Composed themselves, especially after a tough loss before the bye

1399
01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:32,480
Speaker 9: week to Illinois, composed themselves after giving up the football,

1400
01:00:32,520 --> 01:00:35,560
Speaker 9: after not taking advantage of the early momentum, and they

1401
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:37,919
Speaker 9: really did put that team away in the second half.

1402
01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:40,320
Speaker 9: A lot of credit because that is not an easy

1403
01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:42,080
Speaker 9: thing to do given some of the wounds.

1404
01:00:42,480 --> 01:00:44,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, USC sertainly blew with their share of leads last

1405
01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:46,520
Speaker 3: year in their first year in Big Ten play, and

1406
01:00:46,560 --> 01:00:49,440
Speaker 3: talking about Notre Dame because yes, they've rallied off what

1407
01:00:49,520 --> 01:00:51,480
Speaker 3: four wins in a row after starting zero to two,

1408
01:00:51,520 --> 01:00:54,080
Speaker 3: when people who have been detractors of them would say,

1409
01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:55,920
Speaker 3: how are they a nine and a half point favorite

1410
01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:57,960
Speaker 3: against the USC team that's playing in the Big Ten

1411
01:00:58,000 --> 01:00:59,120
Speaker 3: that just beat Michigan.

1412
01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:01,520
Speaker 2: They had a tough one also on the road against Illinois.

1413
01:01:01,640 --> 01:01:03,360
Speaker 3: And you look at the teams the best teams that

1414
01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:05,919
Speaker 3: Notre Dame has played, they lost. I'll be of both

1415
01:01:05,960 --> 01:01:08,880
Speaker 3: close games, but I'm looking at Purdue, Arkansas, Boise State,

1416
01:01:08,960 --> 01:01:12,000
Speaker 3: NC State. There are for victories, nothing really impressive there,

1417
01:01:12,040 --> 01:01:13,360
Speaker 3: despite the fact that they have good talent.

1418
01:01:13,440 --> 01:01:16,040
Speaker 2: CJ. Cars played well. Obviously, they have their two edit

1419
01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:17,080
Speaker 2: monster at running back.

1420
01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:18,640
Speaker 3: What do you say to a lot of people that

1421
01:01:18,720 --> 01:01:20,440
Speaker 3: raise eyebrows that Notre Dame will be a nine and

1422
01:01:20,440 --> 01:01:22,280
Speaker 3: a half point favorite against USC in a game like

1423
01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:25,000
Speaker 3: this considering the competition that they've played recently.

1424
01:01:26,160 --> 01:01:26,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I.

1425
01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:29,360
Speaker 9: Think I'm a little surprised that it's that Why, just

1426
01:01:29,400 --> 01:01:32,240
Speaker 9: given how USC played last week, it's less.

1427
01:01:32,080 --> 01:01:34,000
Speaker 5: To do with Notre Dame. I think Notre Dame's really good.

1428
01:01:34,120 --> 01:01:36,920
Speaker 9: I think those first two games this season, they're the

1429
01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:39,080
Speaker 9: number two and number four teams in the country. They

1430
01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:41,040
Speaker 9: lost by a combined four points, and.

1431
01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:42,880
Speaker 5: He easily could have won either of those games.

1432
01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:45,200
Speaker 9: And so I think you look at kind of the

1433
01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:48,000
Speaker 9: totality of the season with a first year starring quarterback

1434
01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:51,120
Speaker 9: who's a redshirt freshman who's just gotten better and better

1435
01:01:51,240 --> 01:01:53,120
Speaker 9: and better and better and better.

1436
01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:56,880
Speaker 5: As the weeks have gone on. He looks not just.

1437
01:01:56,880 --> 01:02:00,640
Speaker 9: Like the guy here, but arguably the guy in country,

1438
01:02:00,680 --> 01:02:03,240
Speaker 9: like he's been that good at quarterback. And then you've

1439
01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:06,640
Speaker 9: got maybe the best running back candem in college football,

1440
01:02:06,640 --> 01:02:10,080
Speaker 9: and Jeremiah Love who is a legitimate Heisman level candidate,

1441
01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:13,800
Speaker 9: and Jedarian Price is probably one of the most underrated

1442
01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:16,240
Speaker 9: running backs in all of football because he's playing behind

1443
01:02:16,240 --> 01:02:19,200
Speaker 9: a Heisman candidate. Now their receivers starting to come on,

1444
01:02:19,480 --> 01:02:23,040
Speaker 9: and their tight end Eli Reridan is another guy that

1445
01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:25,920
Speaker 9: probably doesn't get talked about enough around the country. But

1446
01:02:25,960 --> 01:02:28,840
Speaker 9: the biggest concern really wasn't the offense from those first

1447
01:02:28,840 --> 01:02:31,439
Speaker 9: two weeks. I mean, they put up twenty four points

1448
01:02:31,480 --> 01:02:34,960
Speaker 9: against the Miami team that defensively is menacing and has

1449
01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:37,160
Speaker 9: completely shut off the water from everybody else. And that

1450
01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:40,920
Speaker 9: was with essentially pulling back in the first half to

1451
01:02:41,000 --> 01:02:43,800
Speaker 9: allow CJ. Carr to get comfortable, and then they realized.

1452
01:02:43,480 --> 01:02:45,520
Speaker 5: At halftime, oh, we didn't need to pull back, and

1453
01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:46,080
Speaker 5: they let.

1454
01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:48,560
Speaker 9: Him rip and he led multiple scoring drives in the

1455
01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:49,440
Speaker 9: fourth quarter.

1456
01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:50,200
Speaker 5: To tie the game late.

1457
01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:52,600
Speaker 9: And then you look at what he did against Texas

1458
01:02:52,640 --> 01:02:55,760
Speaker 9: A and M, who is an outstanding defense under Mike

1459
01:02:55,800 --> 01:02:58,840
Speaker 9: Elko defensive mind. They put up forty points in that

1460
01:02:58,920 --> 01:03:01,160
Speaker 9: game and Tyler up there and drops the snap on

1461
01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:03,760
Speaker 9: an extra point should have been forty one and realistically

1462
01:03:03,760 --> 01:03:05,160
Speaker 9: probably should have gone to overtime.

1463
01:03:05,440 --> 01:03:08,280
Speaker 5: So the defense was the key in both of those games.

1464
01:03:08,360 --> 01:03:10,440
Speaker 9: They just needed one stop against Miami to get the

1465
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:13,000
Speaker 9: football back. They needed one stop against A and M

1466
01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:15,400
Speaker 9: to win that game in the fourth quarter and couldn't

1467
01:03:15,400 --> 01:03:18,520
Speaker 9: get it done. But they have taken massive strides over

1468
01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:21,120
Speaker 9: the last three weeks, in particular because even that Perdue

1469
01:03:21,120 --> 01:03:23,680
Speaker 9: game gave up thirty points to a Purdue team that's

1470
01:03:23,720 --> 01:03:25,680
Speaker 9: been much better this year than they had the last

1471
01:03:25,720 --> 01:03:26,280
Speaker 9: two years.

1472
01:03:26,640 --> 01:03:27,600
Speaker 5: But Arkansas, they.

1473
01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:29,920
Speaker 9: Go on the road and just pummel them and defensively

1474
01:03:29,960 --> 01:03:30,800
Speaker 9: suffocated them.

1475
01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:33,280
Speaker 5: Boise stated a team that was in the playoff last.

1476
01:03:33,080 --> 01:03:35,800
Speaker 9: Year, they hold the seven points and last weekends he

1477
01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:38,320
Speaker 9: stayed hold the seven points and the takeaways have started

1478
01:03:38,360 --> 01:03:41,080
Speaker 9: to really come in bunches. They've gotten a little healthier,

1479
01:03:41,240 --> 01:03:44,560
Speaker 9: especially at some of their top positions. Leonard Moore, who

1480
01:03:44,640 --> 01:03:47,960
Speaker 9: was a freshman All American last year at cornerback, will

1481
01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:50,400
Speaker 9: probably be a first round pick after next season when

1482
01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:52,680
Speaker 9: he's eligible. He got hurt in that A and M

1483
01:03:52,720 --> 01:03:54,520
Speaker 9: game that really hurt them down the stretch in the

1484
01:03:54,520 --> 01:03:57,440
Speaker 9: fourth quarter and really half of the third quarter. They

1485
01:03:57,480 --> 01:03:59,320
Speaker 9: also lost to Don Schuler in that game to a

1486
01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:02,560
Speaker 9: targeting call the second half. But with Leonard Moore getting

1487
01:04:02,600 --> 01:04:05,120
Speaker 9: back healthy, now he's back and playing at a high level.

1488
01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:07,920
Speaker 9: Buba cart Treori was a freshman last year who tours

1489
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:10,960
Speaker 9: acl but before that really flashed as one of the

1490
01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:13,480
Speaker 9: best freshmen in the country. Well, the first two or

1491
01:04:13,520 --> 01:04:15,520
Speaker 9: three games, it was a lot of him getting back

1492
01:04:15,520 --> 01:04:19,960
Speaker 9: into football shape. Since he has, he's been unstoppable. He

1493
01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:21,760
Speaker 9: has five and a half sacks, six and a half

1494
01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:24,520
Speaker 9: tackles for loss. He's one of the best edge rushers

1495
01:04:24,560 --> 01:04:27,040
Speaker 9: in college football. And then they've got a sophomore, so

1496
01:04:27,240 --> 01:04:30,720
Speaker 9: at all three levels, true sophomores in Buba cart Treori

1497
01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:33,120
Speaker 9: up front at the edge, Leonard Moore at cornerback, and

1498
01:04:33,120 --> 01:04:34,680
Speaker 9: then the guy that I really want people to pay

1499
01:04:34,720 --> 01:04:37,640
Speaker 9: attention to is Kingston Villiamo. Asso is actually from the

1500
01:04:37,640 --> 01:04:42,440
Speaker 9: Inland Empire. He went to Saint John Bosco elite, elite,

1501
01:04:42,880 --> 01:04:46,120
Speaker 9: elite talent at linebacker. And so with those guys playing

1502
01:04:46,160 --> 01:04:48,320
Speaker 9: at a level that they really didn't in the first

1503
01:04:48,360 --> 01:04:51,320
Speaker 9: two weeks, this defense has taken a massive jump and

1504
01:04:51,320 --> 01:04:54,040
Speaker 9: they've gotten a lot more comfortable under a new defensive coordinator.

1505
01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:57,040
Speaker 9: I think all of those factors are probably why Notre

1506
01:04:57,120 --> 01:04:59,520
Speaker 9: Dame has that nine and a half point favor coming.

1507
01:04:59,360 --> 01:04:59,919
Speaker 5: Into the game.

1508
01:05:00,360 --> 01:05:02,920
Speaker 9: But this is a game, and especially with potentially some

1509
01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:05,600
Speaker 9: inclement weather that's supposed to be coming in here to

1510
01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:06,440
Speaker 9: Notre Dame.

1511
01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:07,720
Speaker 5: It's a game that with.

1512
01:05:07,840 --> 01:05:10,960
Speaker 9: A rivalry, with an offense that's humming like USC's, I

1513
01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:12,200
Speaker 9: just think anything can happen.

1514
01:05:12,560 --> 01:05:14,160
Speaker 3: No way Eagle joining us here on f and A

1515
01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:17,240
Speaker 3: on FSR Fox Football Saturday. No if I would have

1516
01:05:17,240 --> 01:05:19,320
Speaker 3: told you when You're in Happy Valley three weeks ago

1517
01:05:19,440 --> 01:05:22,800
Speaker 3: watching an epic finish between Penn State and Oregon that

1518
01:05:22,920 --> 01:05:25,880
Speaker 3: James Franklin no longer be on the sidelines. Less than

1519
01:05:25,880 --> 01:05:27,280
Speaker 3: a month later, you would have told me that I

1520
01:05:27,360 --> 01:05:30,560
Speaker 3: was insane. Yet here we are, back to back losses

1521
01:05:30,600 --> 01:05:34,200
Speaker 3: to UCLA and Northwestern, has twenty point favorites and now

1522
01:05:34,360 --> 01:05:36,520
Speaker 3: one of the biggest buyouts, the second biggest buyout in

1523
01:05:36,520 --> 01:05:38,720
Speaker 3: the history of the sport behind Jimbo Fisher at Texas

1524
01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:42,320
Speaker 3: A and M. Just your take on James Franklin's unceremonious

1525
01:05:42,360 --> 01:05:45,560
Speaker 3: exit from Penn State, the team that all the expectations.

1526
01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:46,600
Speaker 2: In the world, and now all of a sudden they're

1527
01:05:46,600 --> 01:05:47,520
Speaker 2: looking for a new head coach.

1528
01:05:47,680 --> 01:05:50,200
Speaker 9: Yeah. Look, it's obviously a different situation than what Jimbo

1529
01:05:50,280 --> 01:05:54,080
Speaker 9: Fisher's was. Jimbo was a consistent underperformer, and I don't

1530
01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:56,760
Speaker 9: know if you can necessarily say that Penn State was

1531
01:05:56,800 --> 01:06:00,320
Speaker 9: an underperformer over the last several years, in particular double

1532
01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:02,840
Speaker 9: digit win team over the last couple of seasons, and

1533
01:06:02,880 --> 01:06:05,280
Speaker 9: they went to the College Football Playoffs semi final last year,

1534
01:06:05,360 --> 01:06:08,520
Speaker 9: So vastly different than the circumstance of what Jimbo Fishers

1535
01:06:08,560 --> 01:06:11,160
Speaker 9: looked like. But I will say that a and M

1536
01:06:11,240 --> 01:06:13,680
Speaker 9: recognized despite the money they were going to have to pay,

1537
01:06:14,080 --> 01:06:16,360
Speaker 9: that they were never going to reach the place that

1538
01:06:16,400 --> 01:06:19,520
Speaker 9: they thought they were capable of reaching with Jimbo Fisher

1539
01:06:19,520 --> 01:06:21,520
Speaker 9: as their head coach, and so they made a change

1540
01:06:21,680 --> 01:06:24,240
Speaker 9: and Mike Elko has come in there and completely changed

1541
01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:27,720
Speaker 9: the culture, has completely changed the mindset and mentality of

1542
01:06:27,760 --> 01:06:30,000
Speaker 9: the players at Texas A and M to the point

1543
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:32,760
Speaker 9: that they believe that they should be winning national championships.

1544
01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:35,040
Speaker 9: And we've seen what they've done this year. They're number

1545
01:06:35,080 --> 01:06:38,680
Speaker 9: four in the country, undefeated, continue to beat people pretty

1546
01:06:38,680 --> 01:06:39,960
Speaker 9: convincingly and do it on.

1547
01:06:39,920 --> 01:06:41,000
Speaker 5: Both sides of the football.

1548
01:06:41,240 --> 01:06:43,360
Speaker 9: And so I'm not saying that Penn State had to

1549
01:06:43,400 --> 01:06:46,080
Speaker 9: do anything, but I am curious to see where they

1550
01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:49,480
Speaker 9: go from here because it's a program that historically is

1551
01:06:49,600 --> 01:06:52,880
Speaker 9: rich with tradition and believes that they should be back

1552
01:06:52,920 --> 01:06:54,600
Speaker 9: to what they were in the eighties and nineties and

1553
01:06:54,600 --> 01:06:58,720
Speaker 9: early two thousands of perennial national championship contender. And they're

1554
01:06:58,720 --> 01:07:04,520
Speaker 9: getting closer and closer closer, but eventually those tough losses

1555
01:07:04,880 --> 01:07:09,160
Speaker 9: to top teams, and as James personally said after the

1556
01:07:09,160 --> 01:07:12,560
Speaker 9: Oregon game, it's not just a narrative anymore. It was

1557
01:07:12,720 --> 01:07:15,520
Speaker 9: just a fact and a statistic. Every time they went

1558
01:07:15,600 --> 01:07:18,360
Speaker 9: up against one of these elite teams, they came up short.

1559
01:07:18,400 --> 01:07:21,200
Speaker 9: And so I think eventually you have to look yourself

1560
01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:23,360
Speaker 9: in the mirror if you're a program, and that's clearly

1561
01:07:23,400 --> 01:07:26,760
Speaker 9: what they did and say, are we at our full potential?

1562
01:07:26,800 --> 01:07:27,240
Speaker 5: Every year?

1563
01:07:27,680 --> 01:07:31,080
Speaker 9: What has always impressed me about Marcus Freeman, for example,

1564
01:07:31,680 --> 01:07:34,880
Speaker 9: Marcus Freeman has gotten better each year as a head

1565
01:07:34,920 --> 01:07:37,600
Speaker 9: coach at an Notre Dame, and last year, and he's

1566
01:07:37,680 --> 01:07:40,760
Speaker 9: talked about this publicly, he felt they got about as

1567
01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:43,840
Speaker 9: close as possible to maximizing the potential of that team,

1568
01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:45,600
Speaker 9: and they got all the way in the National Championship

1569
01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:47,880
Speaker 9: and they almost made a crazy comeback.

1570
01:07:47,560 --> 01:07:49,040
Speaker 5: Bid against Ohio State there.

1571
01:07:49,400 --> 01:07:51,680
Speaker 9: I think Kurt Signette is a great example of someone

1572
01:07:51,680 --> 01:07:55,120
Speaker 9: who consistently is getting the very most out of his guys,

1573
01:07:55,360 --> 01:07:57,040
Speaker 9: and we've seen it now the last two years. He's

1574
01:07:57,040 --> 01:08:00,000
Speaker 9: only lost twice the two teams that played for them

1575
01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:02,800
Speaker 9: National championship last year, and so if you're Penn State,

1576
01:08:02,840 --> 01:08:05,320
Speaker 9: I think you're looking around and saying, are we getting

1577
01:08:05,360 --> 01:08:07,960
Speaker 9: to that level? Because they get five star recruits, they

1578
01:08:07,960 --> 01:08:10,760
Speaker 9: get all Americans in high school they get Players of

1579
01:08:10,800 --> 01:08:14,680
Speaker 9: the Year in every state, but what isn't translating, and

1580
01:08:14,840 --> 01:08:17,479
Speaker 9: especially now when they had a five star quarterback as

1581
01:08:17,479 --> 01:08:19,240
Speaker 9: opposed to good recruits but.

1582
01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:21,000
Speaker 5: None to the level of Dr Raaler.

1583
01:08:21,400 --> 01:08:23,719
Speaker 9: I think eventually it just got into a boiling point

1584
01:08:23,760 --> 01:08:26,920
Speaker 9: of they needed to at least try something else and

1585
01:08:26,960 --> 01:08:28,040
Speaker 9: see if that could change it.

1586
01:08:28,640 --> 01:08:31,160
Speaker 4: You know, I just googled that guy, Kurt Signetti, and

1587
01:08:31,240 --> 01:08:33,080
Speaker 4: it looks like he wins. This is the hell of

1588
01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:35,800
Speaker 4: a coach here. Noah, No, what can you tell me

1589
01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:38,080
Speaker 4: about him? Just as a person, he seems like a

1590
01:08:38,120 --> 01:08:40,719
Speaker 4: force of nature. Like what he did, that's the best

1591
01:08:40,800 --> 01:08:42,800
Speaker 4: victory of the season. The last man, I'll tell you

1592
01:08:42,840 --> 01:08:44,519
Speaker 4: that a new contract?

1593
01:08:44,560 --> 01:08:45,000
Speaker 2: He heard it?

1594
01:08:46,360 --> 01:08:48,240
Speaker 5: Yeah? I love Kurt Signetti. Guys.

1595
01:08:48,320 --> 01:08:50,920
Speaker 9: I we got to meet him for the first time

1596
01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:53,400
Speaker 9: last year before. It was week three before they played

1597
01:08:53,479 --> 01:08:56,080
Speaker 9: UCLA at the Rose Bowl, and at that point, you know,

1598
01:08:56,120 --> 01:08:59,439
Speaker 9: they had obliterated two really low level opponents, but it

1599
01:08:59,520 --> 01:09:02,680
Speaker 9: was just you know, like, what do you know as

1600
01:09:02,800 --> 01:09:05,760
Speaker 9: Kent State? I mean, they lose to everybody, right, so

1601
01:09:06,280 --> 01:09:07,679
Speaker 9: are they really for real?

1602
01:09:07,800 --> 01:09:09,480
Speaker 5: And they're really going to compete.

1603
01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:12,479
Speaker 9: With all these James Madison transfers And I remember we

1604
01:09:12,560 --> 01:09:16,479
Speaker 9: met with him and like, Wow, this guy's confident, this.

1605
01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:18,040
Speaker 5: Guy's very sure of himself.

1606
01:09:18,400 --> 01:09:20,360
Speaker 9: And then we get to the Rose Bowl and they

1607
01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:23,960
Speaker 9: obliterate and I mean it wasn't even remotely close, and

1608
01:09:23,960 --> 01:09:26,080
Speaker 9: the score was probably even closer than the game was.

1609
01:09:26,520 --> 01:09:29,600
Speaker 9: They just humbled UCLA.

1610
01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:29,679
Speaker 5: In that game.

1611
01:09:29,960 --> 01:09:32,080
Speaker 9: And I remember leaving that game and Todd Blackers and

1612
01:09:32,120 --> 01:09:33,720
Speaker 9: I are walking out and we're both kind of like,

1613
01:09:33,760 --> 01:09:35,800
Speaker 9: you know what, that's actually good.

1614
01:09:36,720 --> 01:09:38,000
Speaker 5: That's not just a fluke thing.

1615
01:09:38,160 --> 01:09:41,320
Speaker 9: They are well coached, balanced all of the above. Obviously,

1616
01:09:41,360 --> 01:09:43,200
Speaker 9: they end up having the season that they do and

1617
01:09:43,320 --> 01:09:45,719
Speaker 9: it doesn't end the way that they hoped it would,

1618
01:09:45,800 --> 01:09:47,800
Speaker 9: but they get to the College Football Playoff, which was

1619
01:09:47,920 --> 01:09:52,559
Speaker 9: already just a top tier step for that program, something

1620
01:09:52,560 --> 01:09:54,760
Speaker 9: they never even dreamed of. And then to come back

1621
01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:58,200
Speaker 9: this year, and again there was this feelings from the outside.

1622
01:09:58,240 --> 01:10:01,280
Speaker 9: I think anybody who probably covered the team and stayed

1623
01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:04,360
Speaker 9: close enough within the team that they were still going

1624
01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:06,360
Speaker 9: to be good. The question was are they going to

1625
01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:09,120
Speaker 9: be as good as they were last year? And I

1626
01:10:09,120 --> 01:10:11,599
Speaker 9: don't know if anybody thought that they would be better

1627
01:10:11,880 --> 01:10:14,760
Speaker 9: and substantially better than they were last year. But it's

1628
01:10:14,760 --> 01:10:16,360
Speaker 9: a credit to curt in the way that he coaches,

1629
01:10:16,400 --> 01:10:17,960
Speaker 9: and if you go back to his record, and I

1630
01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:21,479
Speaker 9: know it's the Google meet quote has gone viral time and.

1631
01:10:21,439 --> 01:10:22,320
Speaker 5: Time and time again.

1632
01:10:22,400 --> 01:10:24,120
Speaker 9: And when we talked to him this year, he's like,

1633
01:10:24,160 --> 01:10:25,600
Speaker 9: I'm tired of people bringing that up.

1634
01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:27,760
Speaker 5: I was just he told us last year he.

1635
01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:30,960
Speaker 9: Just felt like the program had no juice, no energy.

1636
01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:31,599
Speaker 5: He felt like he.

1637
01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:34,080
Speaker 9: Needed to do something to fire people up in the community.

1638
01:10:34,320 --> 01:10:36,479
Speaker 9: So that's why he did it, and it just has

1639
01:10:36,560 --> 01:10:40,040
Speaker 9: lived on like eighteen lives since then. But with it,

1640
01:10:40,560 --> 01:10:44,160
Speaker 9: the part that does come with it is his coaching

1641
01:10:44,200 --> 01:10:48,559
Speaker 9: style is so like Nick Saban coded now, He's different

1642
01:10:48,600 --> 01:10:51,599
Speaker 9: than saving. He's got this very dry sense of humor

1643
01:10:51,600 --> 01:10:53,639
Speaker 9: that when you sit with him in a meeting, it's awesome,

1644
01:10:53,680 --> 01:10:56,120
Speaker 9: and if you know the right kind of buttons to push,

1645
01:10:56,240 --> 01:11:01,320
Speaker 9: he will give you gold, absolute gold. But his complete

1646
01:11:01,840 --> 01:11:03,920
Speaker 9: lack of willingness even when they're up.

1647
01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:04,680
Speaker 5: We did the game.

1648
01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:06,920
Speaker 9: They were playing a number nine seam in the country

1649
01:11:06,920 --> 01:11:09,200
Speaker 9: this year, Illinois, and they beat him sixty three to ten

1650
01:11:09,960 --> 01:11:12,679
Speaker 9: at home. It was an incredible scene. And they were

1651
01:11:12,800 --> 01:11:16,639
Speaker 9: up at that point by forty whatever points, forty six points.

1652
01:11:16,760 --> 01:11:19,600
Speaker 9: Let's say in that game, and we kept cutting to

1653
01:11:19,680 --> 01:11:23,720
Speaker 9: him on the sideline, and he still looked upset. He

1654
01:11:23,920 --> 01:11:27,680
Speaker 9: still looked like somehow it wasn't he It looked like

1655
01:11:27,760 --> 01:11:30,000
Speaker 9: he was the one losing by forty three points.

1656
01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:31,400
Speaker 5: And so at some point I.

1657
01:11:31,560 --> 01:11:36,840
Speaker 9: Turned to Todd, I go, dude, this guy's incredible. He goes, yeah, no, incredible,

1658
01:11:36,880 --> 01:11:37,840
Speaker 9: He's unbelievable.

1659
01:11:38,120 --> 01:11:39,400
Speaker 5: It's just a no nonsense.

1660
01:11:39,600 --> 01:11:41,960
Speaker 9: And he said it to us because they had really

1661
01:11:41,960 --> 01:11:44,240
Speaker 9: beaten the doors off of their opponent the week before.

1662
01:11:44,280 --> 01:11:46,840
Speaker 9: And I remember asking, you know, what's your philosophy on

1663
01:11:46,880 --> 01:11:49,400
Speaker 9: that stuff? Where I know you want to get everybody

1664
01:11:49,439 --> 01:11:51,679
Speaker 9: in and you try to make sure people get reps.

1665
01:11:51,680 --> 01:11:54,439
Speaker 9: And his whole thing was, I want my team, no

1666
01:11:54,479 --> 01:11:56,800
Speaker 9: matter who's in there, I want them to play the

1667
01:11:56,880 --> 01:12:00,200
Speaker 9: same way, whether we're up seventy or whether it's a

1668
01:12:00,240 --> 01:12:03,360
Speaker 9: four point game or three point game late fourth quarter

1669
01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:05,679
Speaker 9: and we're driving. He said, it's all about building habits.

1670
01:12:06,040 --> 01:12:08,679
Speaker 9: So we can build the proper habits right now against

1671
01:12:08,720 --> 01:12:11,639
Speaker 9: teams were clearly better then, so that now we get

1672
01:12:11,640 --> 01:12:13,320
Speaker 9: into a battle with a team that's right on our

1673
01:12:13,400 --> 01:12:16,360
Speaker 9: level or slightly better than us, will be prepared because

1674
01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:19,439
Speaker 9: we've built those habits properly, and that's exactly what they

1675
01:12:19,439 --> 01:12:20,240
Speaker 9: did last week.

1676
01:12:20,680 --> 01:12:22,680
Speaker 4: Maybe if he's tired of the Google quote he used

1677
01:12:22,680 --> 01:12:24,840
Speaker 4: to switch it up and go ask Jeeves about me?

1678
01:12:26,680 --> 01:12:29,160
Speaker 2: Is the kids have no idea what that means. Kids

1679
01:12:29,160 --> 01:12:32,639
Speaker 2: are like, who's Jeeves? I mean? Ask Netscape? No last

1680
01:12:32,640 --> 01:12:34,160
Speaker 2: one for you here? Noah.

1681
01:12:34,200 --> 01:12:36,920
Speaker 4: What's the early experience like here in the preseason with

1682
01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:39,080
Speaker 4: the NBA back on NBC.

1683
01:12:39,360 --> 01:12:41,800
Speaker 2: I know you've worked a few games already. How has

1684
01:12:41,840 --> 01:12:43,240
Speaker 2: it been. What can we look forward to?

1685
01:12:43,520 --> 01:12:46,800
Speaker 9: Well, it's just it's been weird not having you, you know,

1686
01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:49,440
Speaker 9: to banter with in between during the timeouts.

1687
01:12:49,479 --> 01:12:50,280
Speaker 5: That's been odd.

1688
01:12:50,280 --> 01:12:52,599
Speaker 9: And then also it's been weird looking to my right

1689
01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:55,919
Speaker 9: and not seeing someone drinking a protein shape just randomly

1690
01:12:55,960 --> 01:12:56,840
Speaker 9: in the middle of the game.

1691
01:12:57,240 --> 01:12:58,640
Speaker 5: That's been bizarre.

1692
01:12:58,720 --> 01:13:01,559
Speaker 9: So those two things have already been weird. But now

1693
01:13:01,640 --> 01:13:04,600
Speaker 9: it's been. Honestly, guys, it's been really amazing.

1694
01:13:04,280 --> 01:13:06,160
Speaker 5: To be back in the NBA.

1695
01:13:06,280 --> 01:13:08,479
Speaker 9: You know, I've been with the nets for a handful

1696
01:13:08,520 --> 01:13:10,679
Speaker 9: of games the last two years, which has been a blast.

1697
01:13:10,680 --> 01:13:13,439
Speaker 9: But to know I'm going to be consistently every week

1698
01:13:13,680 --> 01:13:17,040
Speaker 9: having a game, maybe multiple games once we especially get

1699
01:13:17,040 --> 01:13:19,040
Speaker 9: after football season is amazing.

1700
01:13:19,240 --> 01:13:20,320
Speaker 5: You guys know how much.

1701
01:13:20,320 --> 01:13:22,640
Speaker 9: I'm how passionate I am about the NBA, and so

1702
01:13:22,760 --> 01:13:25,679
Speaker 9: just to be around the game, to see the officials again,

1703
01:13:25,840 --> 01:13:30,200
Speaker 9: to see coaches again, see players again, that part's been amazing.

1704
01:13:30,240 --> 01:13:32,880
Speaker 9: And then the crew that we've assembled. You know, that

1705
01:13:32,960 --> 01:13:35,760
Speaker 9: first pre season game, I get to sit next to

1706
01:13:35,800 --> 01:13:40,080
Speaker 9: Reggie Miller and basically just talk fall for a couple hours.

1707
01:13:40,439 --> 01:13:42,800
Speaker 9: And then last week here this past week, it was

1708
01:13:42,840 --> 01:13:45,320
Speaker 9: with Jamal Crawford and I get to just talk ball

1709
01:13:45,439 --> 01:13:46,320
Speaker 9: for a couple hours.

1710
01:13:46,320 --> 01:13:48,320
Speaker 5: And they sent our studio crew and.

1711
01:13:48,680 --> 01:13:51,800
Speaker 9: It's Tracy McGrady who I get to just talk ball with,

1712
01:13:52,040 --> 01:13:54,559
Speaker 9: and Carmelo Anthony and Vince Carter, who was my favorite

1713
01:13:54,600 --> 01:13:55,360
Speaker 9: player growing up.

1714
01:13:55,479 --> 01:13:58,680
Speaker 5: It's just that part special for me. So it's been

1715
01:13:58,720 --> 01:13:59,240
Speaker 5: really cool.

1716
01:13:59,320 --> 01:14:01,400
Speaker 9: I'm excited for this week as we get started with

1717
01:14:01,439 --> 01:14:04,840
Speaker 9: our official regular season opener, and just really more so

1718
01:14:04,880 --> 01:14:08,120
Speaker 9: excited that the NBA is back, baby, and I can say.

1719
01:14:10,520 --> 01:14:11,960
Speaker 3: We are excited to know what you can adds to

1720
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:15,440
Speaker 3: our call and actually decided to join us.

1721
01:14:15,479 --> 01:14:16,240
Speaker 2: Carter, he really is.

1722
01:14:16,320 --> 01:14:18,679
Speaker 3: He's a busy man, got a lot going on voice obviously,

1723
01:14:19,240 --> 01:14:21,720
Speaker 3: but the Big Ten on NBC and Peacock also the

1724
01:14:21,760 --> 01:14:24,320
Speaker 3: voice of the NBA on NBC and Peacock as well. Noah,

1725
01:14:24,360 --> 01:14:25,960
Speaker 3: thanks so much for joining us as always, Man, we

1726
01:14:26,000 --> 01:14:26,599
Speaker 3: appreciate it.

1727
01:14:27,520 --> 01:14:29,559
Speaker 5: You got it. Guys. You can call me half man,

1728
01:14:29,600 --> 01:14:30,720
Speaker 5: half uncrustable.

1729
01:14:33,120 --> 01:14:37,080
Speaker 4: There goes no ego, best of the best, and I

1730
01:14:37,080 --> 01:14:42,000
Speaker 4: don't use that very often. It's overdone, but he is.

1731
01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:44,720
Speaker 4: That's why I call him the young Goat. He could

1732
01:14:44,720 --> 01:14:47,639
Speaker 4: still be a goat just because he's young. He's that good.

1733
01:14:48,800 --> 01:14:52,560
Speaker 4: I work with them for four seasons. He was the

1734
01:14:52,600 --> 01:14:55,759
Speaker 4: voice of the Clippers on the radio side. Coming up next,

1735
01:14:56,520 --> 01:14:59,759
Speaker 4: it's back to our NFL six pack. I can't remember

1736
01:14:59,760 --> 01:15:03,160
Speaker 4: if it's Trap game tap or tap game trap, but

1737
01:15:03,280 --> 01:15:06,280
Speaker 4: I know it's our beer goggles game coming up as well.

1738
01:15:06,800 --> 01:15:10,400
Speaker 4: NFL six pack. All right here on FNA on FSR.

Speaker 4: But Mark, what's our next category here in the NFL

1752
01:15:52,000 --> 01:15:52,479
Speaker 4: six pack?

1753
01:15:52,920 --> 01:15:53,599
Speaker 2: Trap game?

1754
01:15:53,720 --> 01:15:57,040
Speaker 3: Tap Kevin favorite in trouble or facing a trap game

1755
01:15:57,080 --> 01:15:59,599
Speaker 3: this weekend? Adam, I'm going with your Green Bay Packers.

1756
01:15:59,600 --> 01:16:03,080
Speaker 3: There one fourth best record in the league. I feel

1757
01:16:03,120 --> 01:16:05,720
Speaker 3: there's something missing, don't know exactly what it is. They're

1758
01:16:05,720 --> 01:16:08,439
Speaker 3: at home this weekend against the Cardinals. We're all jazzed

1759
01:16:08,479 --> 01:16:10,160
Speaker 3: up about them being a Super Bowl favorite. I think

1760
01:16:10,320 --> 01:16:12,720
Speaker 3: you marked them down as your Super Bowl champion and

1761
01:16:12,800 --> 01:16:14,920
Speaker 3: our Fox Sports Radio list we have there the in

1762
01:16:14,920 --> 01:16:15,519
Speaker 3: the control room.

1763
01:16:15,560 --> 01:16:17,160
Speaker 4: Well, I got them playing the Bills, and the Bills

1764
01:16:17,160 --> 01:16:18,439
Speaker 4: aren't allowed to win a Super Bowl.

1765
01:16:18,640 --> 01:16:20,240
Speaker 2: Apparently not. They're forever cursed.

1766
01:16:20,280 --> 01:16:22,960
Speaker 3: It seems like after that Parsons trade, it's not as

1767
01:16:23,000 --> 01:16:26,479
Speaker 3: if he's not made an impact, huh. But I mean, well, look,

1768
01:16:26,520 --> 01:16:28,200
Speaker 3: he's still tops in the league when it comes to

1769
01:16:28,240 --> 01:16:31,120
Speaker 3: quarterback pressures. He's up there in quarterback hits, so some

1770
01:16:31,160 --> 01:16:32,559
Speaker 3: of the things, even though we might not have as

1771
01:16:32,600 --> 01:16:34,040
Speaker 3: many sacks, I think he's sitting on two and a

1772
01:16:34,040 --> 01:16:36,559
Speaker 3: half at this point in time. He's definitely made an impact.

1773
01:16:36,680 --> 01:16:39,080
Speaker 3: But and yes, they beat the Bengals last week, but

1774
01:16:39,680 --> 01:16:42,040
Speaker 3: not as dominative a performance as many people thought it

1775
01:16:42,120 --> 01:16:45,160
Speaker 3: possibly might be. I agree, So honestly, my issues with

1776
01:16:45,200 --> 01:16:47,320
Speaker 3: them sten more on their offense than their defense. I

1777
01:16:47,320 --> 01:16:49,240
Speaker 3: think their defense for the most part, has played well,

1778
01:16:49,640 --> 01:16:51,679
Speaker 3: but they have the fifth best defense in the NFL,

1779
01:16:51,720 --> 01:16:54,040
Speaker 3: even though they're ninth in office. Most of them expected them.

1780
01:16:54,400 --> 01:16:57,400
Speaker 3: It's expected, specifically Jordan Love to sort of take that

1781
01:16:57,520 --> 01:17:01,360
Speaker 3: next leap and put himself possibly even in the MVP discussion,

1782
01:17:01,720 --> 01:17:03,600
Speaker 3: and he just hasn't gotten to that point yet. He

1783
01:17:03,640 --> 01:17:06,439
Speaker 3: doesn't look like a win with sort of quarterback at

1784
01:17:06,439 --> 01:17:08,440
Speaker 3: this point in time. He seems more like a complimentary

1785
01:17:08,439 --> 01:17:11,559
Speaker 3: piece as opposed to a star quarterback. Now they hit

1786
01:17:11,600 --> 01:17:13,320
Speaker 3: the road to take on a Cardinal team that, granted

1787
01:17:13,360 --> 01:17:15,800
Speaker 3: does not have a great record, but they've played teams

1788
01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:16,840
Speaker 3: extremely tough this season.

1789
01:17:16,840 --> 01:17:17,839
Speaker 2: They've been very competitive.

1790
01:17:17,920 --> 01:17:20,160
Speaker 3: I said last week Jacoby Brissett would give the Cardinals

1791
01:17:20,160 --> 01:17:23,080
Speaker 3: a fighting chance against the Colts, and he did exactly that.

1792
01:17:23,200 --> 01:17:24,960
Speaker 2: He had them, you know, right in the mix.

1793
01:17:25,000 --> 01:17:26,880
Speaker 3: And honestly, I should have trusted my good and taken

1794
01:17:26,920 --> 01:17:28,679
Speaker 3: them in too on, too off to cover the spread.

1795
01:17:28,960 --> 01:17:31,559
Speaker 3: Unfortunately I took the Colts mistake on my part when

1796
01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:33,840
Speaker 3: it comes to that. But I digress. Whether it's Pressett

1797
01:17:33,960 --> 01:17:36,160
Speaker 3: or Kyler Murray doesn't matter. I don't know that I

1798
01:17:36,160 --> 01:17:37,840
Speaker 3: can trust Green Bay in a spot like this on

1799
01:17:37,880 --> 01:17:40,000
Speaker 3: the road, with a matchup against the Steelers next Sunday

1800
01:17:40,040 --> 01:17:42,160
Speaker 3: night on the horizon. So I know that good teams

1801
01:17:42,200 --> 01:17:44,040
Speaker 3: find ways to win games, and they've been doing that

1802
01:17:44,080 --> 01:17:45,800
Speaker 3: to their credit, with the exception of that tie to

1803
01:17:45,840 --> 01:17:48,320
Speaker 3: the Cowboys. But when you operate on a razor's edge,

1804
01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:50,280
Speaker 3: it goes without saying that your margin for error is

1805
01:17:50,360 --> 01:17:52,680
Speaker 3: very small. And I can see the Packer's suffering that

1806
01:17:52,720 --> 01:17:54,680
Speaker 3: second loss that they've been flirting with all season long.

1807
01:17:54,680 --> 01:17:55,479
Speaker 2: Here to the Cardinals.

1808
01:17:55,520 --> 01:17:58,680
Speaker 4: All right, my trap game tap. You know, as much

1809
01:17:58,720 --> 01:18:01,760
Speaker 4: as I just criticized Titans for firing everyone but the

1810
01:18:01,800 --> 01:18:04,240
Speaker 4: owners who put themselves in this mess by far the owner,

1811
01:18:04,400 --> 01:18:08,000
Speaker 4: sometimes it can light a fire under everyone that's left.

1812
01:18:09,280 --> 01:18:11,919
Speaker 4: We've seen teams win their first game under an interim

1813
01:18:11,960 --> 01:18:15,599
Speaker 4: head coach before, specifically with the team that got Brian

1814
01:18:15,680 --> 01:18:19,519
Speaker 4: Callahan fired the Raiders. Remember Antonio Pearce, he won his

1815
01:18:19,560 --> 01:18:22,560
Speaker 4: first game against the Giants after they fired. Josh McDaniels

1816
01:18:22,560 --> 01:18:26,200
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty three, and in twenty twenty one, Richard

1817
01:18:26,320 --> 01:18:30,360
Speaker 4: Bisacia he won over the Broncos after they fired or

1818
01:18:30,479 --> 01:18:34,080
Speaker 4: John Gurden resigned. I should say, in fact, in the

1819
01:18:34,120 --> 01:18:37,960
Speaker 4: last fifteen years, in the thirty three games where teams

1820
01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:42,600
Speaker 4: have had an interim coach debut, they are seventeen and sixteen,

1821
01:18:42,720 --> 01:18:46,080
Speaker 4: despite being the underdogs in twenty five of those thirty

1822
01:18:46,080 --> 01:18:49,120
Speaker 4: three games. Interesting, and the data shows the earlier you

1823
01:18:49,280 --> 01:18:51,439
Speaker 4: do it. Within the first six weeks of the season,

1824
01:18:51,520 --> 01:18:54,880
Speaker 4: the better five of the eight interim coaches taking over

1825
01:18:54,960 --> 01:18:58,000
Speaker 4: in that time period won their first game. So, uh,

1826
01:18:58,120 --> 01:19:00,800
Speaker 4: look the f out Patriots. I know he've won three

1827
01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:03,519
Speaker 4: in a row, but really the only impressive victory was

1828
01:19:03,560 --> 01:19:06,160
Speaker 4: over the Bills. The Saints win last week, and the

1829
01:19:06,200 --> 01:19:10,559
Speaker 4: Panthers win three weeks ago, and they're the southeast of

1830
01:19:10,680 --> 01:19:14,880
Speaker 4: the NFC South teams. They suck, but they can't win

1831
01:19:14,920 --> 01:19:17,280
Speaker 4: on the road unless the Panthers want to prove me

1832
01:19:17,320 --> 01:19:21,040
Speaker 4: wrong for once and actually get that seventh seed wild

1833
01:19:21,120 --> 01:19:21,759
Speaker 4: card spot.

1834
01:19:21,840 --> 01:19:24,200
Speaker 2: All right, what is that too ambitious?

1835
01:19:26,240 --> 01:19:29,120
Speaker 4: I think this Titans game could be dangerous in a

1836
01:19:29,200 --> 01:19:33,000
Speaker 4: tap game trap for the Pats. Drake May has been

1837
01:19:33,040 --> 01:19:36,400
Speaker 4: a little too good lately. Could be a letdown like

1838
01:19:36,439 --> 01:19:39,160
Speaker 4: the Colts, as you mentioned, almost losing to the Cardinals

1839
01:19:39,160 --> 01:19:42,360
Speaker 4: at home last week, except the Patriots are actually on

1840
01:19:42,400 --> 01:19:46,400
Speaker 4: the road in Nashville. I will say this though, it's

1841
01:19:46,439 --> 01:19:50,200
Speaker 4: the return of Mike Raybels looking for his revenge against

1842
01:19:50,200 --> 01:19:53,000
Speaker 4: his former team. So there's a lot going on in

1843
01:19:53,040 --> 01:19:55,280
Speaker 4: this game in Tennessee. I think it's going to be

1844
01:19:55,320 --> 01:19:58,280
Speaker 4: more interesting than you would anticipate it being.

1845
01:19:58,600 --> 01:20:00,879
Speaker 3: I will say about Drake May, a lot more impressive

1846
01:20:00,880 --> 01:20:03,040
Speaker 3: than I thought he would. We talk about that quarterback class,

1847
01:20:03,080 --> 01:20:05,560
Speaker 3: it was him, it was Jaydon Daniels, he was Caleb Williams,

1848
01:20:05,800 --> 01:20:08,439
Speaker 3: it was Bo Nicks right there. He's right up there,

1849
01:20:08,560 --> 01:20:10,880
Speaker 3: right now, right up there with and if you want

1850
01:20:10,880 --> 01:20:13,519
Speaker 3: to say, from a production standpoint, even better than a

1851
01:20:13,520 --> 01:20:14,840
Speaker 3: couple of those guys at this point in.

1852
01:20:14,840 --> 01:20:16,519
Speaker 2: Time, completion percentage will say that.

1853
01:20:16,560 --> 01:20:18,280
Speaker 3: I mean, he's looking like the best quarterback in that

1854
01:20:18,320 --> 01:20:20,719
Speaker 3: class as of right now in this season. Jaydon Daniels

1855
01:20:20,800 --> 01:20:22,800
Speaker 3: was great last year, has had some injuries issues this year.

1856
01:20:22,840 --> 01:20:24,519
Speaker 3: We'll see how the rest of the season plays out.

1857
01:20:24,720 --> 01:20:27,000
Speaker 3: But I'm bullish on Drake May He's looked amazing.

1858
01:20:27,040 --> 01:20:29,639
Speaker 4: I'm bullish on the rest of our NFL six pack. Next,

1859
01:20:29,720 --> 01:20:32,759
Speaker 4: we still got four more categories. It's FNA on FSR.

1860
01:20:34,200 --> 01:20:38,080
Speaker 3: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Final Hot where Fox

1861
01:20:38,080 --> 01:20:39,639
Speaker 3: Football Saturday with FNA.

1862
01:20:39,800 --> 01:20:41,519
Speaker 2: I'm Kevin Figures, he is Adam Alston.

1863
01:20:41,600 --> 01:20:43,360
Speaker 3: Hit us up on next at k FIG one and

1864
01:20:43,439 --> 01:20:45,200
Speaker 3: at follow Adam a coming up.

1865
01:20:45,200 --> 01:20:48,280
Speaker 4: We got the debut Lisa, the SoundBite of what we've

1866
01:20:48,320 --> 01:20:51,960
Speaker 4: been doing for a while in our college football forecast segment.

1867
01:20:52,400 --> 01:20:55,280
Speaker 4: Will get just set and primed and ready for the

1868
01:20:55,280 --> 01:20:58,400
Speaker 4: full slate of games coming up just hours from now.

1869
01:20:58,520 --> 01:20:59,559
Speaker 2: Bre Why are you giving me that?

1870
01:20:59,600 --> 01:21:03,680
Speaker 4: Look what we didn't ask for a promo, and then

1871
01:21:03,720 --> 01:21:04,240
Speaker 4: we did, and.

1872
01:21:04,200 --> 01:21:07,160
Speaker 3: Then it's not a promo, it's a Stager Okay, and

1873
01:21:07,360 --> 01:21:08,280
Speaker 3: yeah we needed.

1874
01:21:08,000 --> 01:21:10,040
Speaker 2: It and it sounds awesome. I'm excited.

1875
01:21:10,200 --> 01:21:14,519
Speaker 4: Tomato tomato. We have an intro and we're excited to Stager.

1876
01:21:16,000 --> 01:21:18,280
Speaker 3: Really upset when people say tomato tomato, because no one

1877
01:21:18,320 --> 01:21:21,040
Speaker 3: says tomato or potato potato. No one says calls a.

1878
01:21:21,040 --> 01:21:23,559
Speaker 2: Potato Brina, No one says Brianna.

1879
01:21:23,680 --> 01:21:27,479
Speaker 4: You know I actually but you know you've gotten mad

1880
01:21:27,800 --> 01:21:28,800
Speaker 4: many times for that.

1881
01:21:28,800 --> 01:21:31,000
Speaker 3: That's better though, you know what that actually happens. You

1882
01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:33,240
Speaker 3: know I can work with that one. He'll get me

1883
01:21:33,320 --> 01:21:35,360
Speaker 3: started on your last name. I have no idea how

1884
01:21:35,360 --> 01:21:38,920
Speaker 3: to say that, Adam or Autumn. You know, well, is

1885
01:21:38,960 --> 01:21:40,920
Speaker 3: it Ozland or oz Land?

1886
01:21:41,120 --> 01:21:49,720
Speaker 2: Or is it Adam? I wish it was all right, Mark,

1887
01:21:49,760 --> 01:21:51,360
Speaker 2: we'll get back into the NFL sticks back.

1888
01:21:51,400 --> 01:21:52,760
Speaker 1: What do we get to her goggles gate?

1889
01:21:52,920 --> 01:21:53,680
Speaker 2: I got something for it.

1890
01:21:53,760 --> 01:21:56,320
Speaker 3: Speaking of the land of ass, the ugly matchup that

1891
01:21:56,400 --> 01:21:59,720
Speaker 3: might turn out to be entertaining this weekend, Adam, all right, you.

1892
01:21:59,680 --> 01:22:03,680
Speaker 4: Mentioned earlier the Panthers are three and three, but all

1893
01:22:03,720 --> 01:22:06,559
Speaker 4: three victories have come at home. So if you're wondering

1894
01:22:07,080 --> 01:22:07,759
Speaker 4: why they're.

1895
01:22:07,520 --> 01:22:10,680
Speaker 3: Only one point favorites on the road against a winless

1896
01:22:10,800 --> 01:22:12,240
Speaker 3: Jets team, that.

1897
01:22:12,280 --> 01:22:13,000
Speaker 2: Would be why.

1898
01:22:13,600 --> 01:22:17,760
Speaker 4: Also, because the Panthers are due to disappoint me. They

1899
01:22:17,800 --> 01:22:20,920
Speaker 4: live for this, getting my hopes up like they're turning

1900
01:22:20,920 --> 01:22:23,680
Speaker 4: a corner, making me think they might contend for a

1901
01:22:23,720 --> 01:22:26,160
Speaker 4: wild card spot in the NFC and then the rug

1902
01:22:26,200 --> 01:22:29,000
Speaker 4: gets pulled out from underneath me and I'm doing a

1903
01:22:29,040 --> 01:22:30,480
Speaker 4: flip like Campskataboo.

1904
01:22:30,680 --> 01:22:32,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what's like an order Dame walks out

1905
01:22:32,320 --> 01:22:34,240
Speaker 3: and they all hit the sign that says play like

1906
01:22:34,280 --> 01:22:36,880
Speaker 3: a champion. When the Panthers walk out, it's like screw

1907
01:22:36,880 --> 01:22:38,960
Speaker 3: over at them, screw over at them. They just hit

1908
01:22:38,960 --> 01:22:40,280
Speaker 3: the sign as they walk out into the field.

1909
01:22:40,400 --> 01:22:43,479
Speaker 4: Some of them kiss the sign too, they rub weird

1910
01:22:43,520 --> 01:22:46,639
Speaker 4: things against it, like I didn't want to believe. Speaking

1911
01:22:46,680 --> 01:22:49,800
Speaker 4: of running backs since I mentioned camp Skataboo. Like I

1912
01:22:49,840 --> 01:22:52,880
Speaker 4: said earlier, I did not want to believe that after

1913
01:22:52,920 --> 01:22:56,519
Speaker 4: that two hundred yard game against Miami's run defense, which

1914
01:22:56,560 --> 01:23:01,360
Speaker 4: is not good, that Rico Doubtele could really be the

1915
01:23:01,439 --> 01:23:05,080
Speaker 4: running back of the present and the future for my Panthers.

1916
01:23:05,080 --> 01:23:07,960
Speaker 4: And I still don't want to believe after he ran

1917
01:23:08,000 --> 01:23:11,880
Speaker 4: all over the Cowboys they also have a bad run defense,

1918
01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:16,360
Speaker 4: but he backed up his buckle up talk and I

1919
01:23:16,439 --> 01:23:17,120
Speaker 4: like seeing that.

1920
01:23:18,040 --> 01:23:19,720
Speaker 2: But Rico, I'm begging you.

1921
01:23:20,439 --> 01:23:23,880
Speaker 4: If you do it against the Jets, well, I'll still

1922
01:23:23,880 --> 01:23:25,439
Speaker 4: have my doubts because it's the Jets.

1923
01:23:25,680 --> 01:23:26,759
Speaker 2: I am a doubt.

1924
01:23:28,760 --> 01:23:31,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, the Jets. They have a built in laugh track.

1925
01:23:32,600 --> 01:23:35,320
Speaker 4: I've been a doubt old Thomas. You could say I've

1926
01:23:35,320 --> 01:23:38,280
Speaker 4: been doubting him when it comes to anything good happening

1927
01:23:38,360 --> 01:23:40,240
Speaker 4: for my Panthers, I've been doubting it. I need at

1928
01:23:40,320 --> 01:23:42,599
Speaker 4: least half a season of data, and even then I'm

1929
01:23:42,640 --> 01:23:46,200
Speaker 4: a skeptic because Bryce Young had that resurgence the last

1930
01:23:46,240 --> 01:23:51,000
Speaker 4: eight games of last season. Didn't mean that much. But again,

1931
01:23:51,800 --> 01:23:56,240
Speaker 4: if you want to be the next great Panthers running back, Rico,

1932
01:23:57,320 --> 01:23:59,479
Speaker 4: do it against the Jets. You gotta give me one

1933
01:23:59,600 --> 01:24:03,680
Speaker 4: twenty and a touchdown at least bare minimum. And I

1934
01:24:03,720 --> 01:24:05,520
Speaker 4: don't care who's playing quarterback.

1935
01:24:05,160 --> 01:24:06,080
Speaker 2: For the Jets. I don't.

1936
01:24:06,640 --> 01:24:09,320
Speaker 4: I know it's not Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson or

1937
01:24:09,320 --> 01:24:13,880
Speaker 4: whoever their head coach wants to compare Josh fields to

1938
01:24:14,680 --> 01:24:15,320
Speaker 4: Justin fields.

1939
01:24:15,320 --> 01:24:16,760
Speaker 2: Excuse me, so I DraftKings.

1940
01:24:16,760 --> 01:24:19,880
Speaker 3: Adam clearly has the over on a half touchdown for

1941
01:24:19,880 --> 01:24:22,000
Speaker 3: for Ricudado, and he has the over one hundred and

1942
01:24:22,080 --> 01:24:23,360
Speaker 3: nineteen and a half rushing yard.

1943
01:24:23,400 --> 01:24:25,559
Speaker 2: So that's where he gets these numbers from. I didn't

1944
01:24:25,600 --> 01:24:28,599
Speaker 2: know it was there. Am I on it like that? No,

1945
01:24:28,600 --> 01:24:29,679
Speaker 2: you're not. I was pretty accurate.

1946
01:24:30,680 --> 01:24:33,320
Speaker 4: All I know is an zero to six team can

1947
01:24:33,360 --> 01:24:38,200
Speaker 4: still be dangerous and dangerous to the opponent or themselves

1948
01:24:38,200 --> 01:24:42,160
Speaker 4: mostly I'm sure, just dangerous, yes, but especially against my Panthers.

1949
01:24:42,200 --> 01:24:45,120
Speaker 4: So there's my beer goggles game. I think it could

1950
01:24:45,160 --> 01:24:47,679
Speaker 4: be entertaining. No, I agree, it's supposed to be close.

1951
01:24:48,120 --> 01:24:50,360
Speaker 4: It's a one point game. Either way, it's a damn pickham.

1952
01:24:50,560 --> 01:24:51,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1953
01:24:51,160 --> 01:24:53,240
Speaker 3: Now granted, I mean it could be like, you know,

1954
01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:55,120
Speaker 3: three to two, we could have a safety in a

1955
01:24:55,160 --> 01:24:57,200
Speaker 3: field goal and that could be all the scoring that track.

1956
01:24:57,320 --> 01:24:58,800
Speaker 2: So it could be something like that. You're right.

1957
01:24:58,800 --> 01:25:00,559
Speaker 3: I don't know if I would necessarily be inner or not,

1958
01:25:00,640 --> 01:25:02,800
Speaker 3: but get the old baseball score working.

1959
01:25:03,360 --> 01:25:05,760
Speaker 2: Hey, if that means a Panthers win, now you'll take it. Aleck,

1960
01:25:05,800 --> 01:25:06,360
Speaker 2: you get him, and.

1961
01:25:06,400 --> 01:25:08,720
Speaker 4: Rico's running the rock like he has been. I'm good

1962
01:25:08,720 --> 01:25:10,720
Speaker 4: with it because that's been a revelation for them.

1963
01:25:10,760 --> 01:25:12,360
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go to Sunday Night football and go to

1964
01:25:12,360 --> 01:25:14,639
Speaker 3: the Falcons taking on the forty nine ers. Now, granted,

1965
01:25:14,640 --> 01:25:17,599
Speaker 3: San Francisco favored at home as they host the Falcons,

1966
01:25:17,640 --> 01:25:19,080
Speaker 3: but if you look at both teams and where they

1967
01:25:19,080 --> 01:25:21,960
Speaker 3: currently sit, I think most reasonable people would assume that

1968
01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:24,160
Speaker 3: Atlanta actually has a leg up in this game. You

1969
01:25:24,200 --> 01:25:26,280
Speaker 3: look at what they did against Buffalo on Monday night, which,

1970
01:25:26,280 --> 01:25:29,479
Speaker 3: by the way, we called b Jon Robinson went off

1971
01:25:29,560 --> 01:25:31,559
Speaker 3: on that defense like we said he would, and we

1972
01:25:31,560 --> 01:25:33,519
Speaker 3: said it will be a trap game for the Bills. Now,

1973
01:25:33,520 --> 01:25:35,519
Speaker 3: if you look on the surface, Atlanta is riding high

1974
01:25:35,560 --> 01:25:38,599
Speaker 3: after winning that victory. Drake London balled out as well,

1975
01:25:38,640 --> 01:25:40,960
Speaker 3: so offensively they're right and high on offense.

1976
01:25:41,439 --> 01:25:42,559
Speaker 2: Or for the forty.

1977
01:25:42,400 --> 01:25:46,080
Speaker 3: Nine ers, rock party Mac Jones both banged up, Probably

1978
01:25:46,120 --> 01:25:47,800
Speaker 3: gonna be mac Jones. He practiced the last couple of

1979
01:25:47,840 --> 01:25:49,880
Speaker 3: days this week. Juwan Jennings and Piers all are hurt.

1980
01:25:49,880 --> 01:25:52,280
Speaker 3: I youku still out. We'll get George Kettle back, so

1981
01:25:52,360 --> 01:25:53,920
Speaker 3: that would be a big boost for them for sure.

1982
01:25:54,280 --> 01:25:56,920
Speaker 3: But defensively, you lost your best player in Fred Warner

1983
01:25:57,080 --> 01:25:59,760
Speaker 3: after already losing your second best player earlier in the

1984
01:25:59,800 --> 01:26:02,439
Speaker 3: seas and Nick Bosa. So on the surface, you think

1985
01:26:02,479 --> 01:26:04,920
Speaker 3: the Falcons would march into Santa Clara and lay the

1986
01:26:04,920 --> 01:26:06,120
Speaker 3: wood to the forty nine ers.

1987
01:26:06,520 --> 01:26:08,840
Speaker 2: I'll be honest, I don't see that happening. Say what

1988
01:26:08,880 --> 01:26:10,040
Speaker 2: you want about Kyle Shanahan.

1989
01:26:10,120 --> 01:26:13,000
Speaker 3: He falls short in big games, you know, and close

1990
01:26:13,040 --> 01:26:15,960
Speaker 3: games down the stretch and super Bowls and NFC Championship games.

1991
01:26:16,240 --> 01:26:19,160
Speaker 3: His game management leads much to be desired. This is true,

1992
01:26:19,760 --> 01:26:22,360
Speaker 3: but it's the regular season, right, This is the regular season,

1993
01:26:22,439 --> 01:26:23,960
Speaker 3: so it's a different animal at this point in time.

1994
01:26:23,960 --> 01:26:25,559
Speaker 3: He knows what he has to work with and knows

1995
01:26:25,600 --> 01:26:27,720
Speaker 3: what he's up against. And if you look at the

1996
01:26:27,800 --> 01:26:30,479
Speaker 3: rosters and how well Atlanta's playing juxtaposed to the banged

1997
01:26:30,479 --> 01:26:32,840
Speaker 3: at forty nine ers who lost to the Bucks last week,

1998
01:26:32,880 --> 01:26:34,960
Speaker 3: logically tell you the Falcons will run them off the field.

1999
01:26:35,000 --> 01:26:36,960
Speaker 3: But this forty nine er team has played teams tough,

2000
01:26:37,240 --> 01:26:40,120
Speaker 3: and Kyle Shanahan's tenure, he has had teams play with

2001
01:26:40,280 --> 01:26:43,400
Speaker 3: Nick Mullins of all people at quarterback and has won

2002
01:26:43,439 --> 01:26:44,200
Speaker 3: games in the past.

2003
01:26:44,320 --> 01:26:44,519
Speaker 2: Yeah.

2004
01:26:44,640 --> 01:26:47,840
Speaker 4: You remember when the Eagles under Andy Reid every year,

2005
01:26:47,920 --> 01:26:49,719
Speaker 4: whenever Donovan m nab was out, they.

2006
01:26:49,640 --> 01:26:52,960
Speaker 2: Still would win. Aj Feeley, Kevin Cobb, you name it.

2007
01:26:52,960 --> 01:26:54,760
Speaker 3: They would find ways to win even if they have

2008
01:26:54,880 --> 01:26:57,800
Speaker 3: some of their best players banged up. So that yeah,

2009
01:26:58,120 --> 01:26:59,720
Speaker 3: and then's hy Dermer broke his arm. I think at

2010
01:26:59,720 --> 01:27:01,720
Speaker 3: one point I can remember him kicking his legs in

2011
01:27:01,720 --> 01:27:04,720
Speaker 3: the air like almost spastically, a grammatica type of thing

2012
01:27:04,840 --> 01:27:07,200
Speaker 3: kind of. Yeah, he was selling you he was kind

2013
01:27:07,240 --> 01:27:09,559
Speaker 3: of built like the Grammatica brothers. You know, so one

2014
01:27:09,560 --> 01:27:10,800
Speaker 3: of their kids is a kicker now as a matter

2015
01:27:10,840 --> 01:27:12,200
Speaker 3: of fact, being college football.

2016
01:27:12,720 --> 01:27:15,160
Speaker 2: So I actually the forty nine ers hanging hanging tough.

2017
01:27:15,160 --> 01:27:17,400
Speaker 3: I think this is a pretty entertaining game, a fairly

2018
01:27:17,479 --> 01:27:19,320
Speaker 3: high scoring game, despite the fact that the forty nine

2019
01:27:19,360 --> 01:27:21,519
Speaker 3: ers don't have a lot of offensive weapons. So I know,

2020
01:27:21,640 --> 01:27:23,160
Speaker 3: like I said, the forty Nineers are favor But I

2021
01:27:23,160 --> 01:27:24,639
Speaker 3: do think there's a lot of people on the outside

2022
01:27:24,640 --> 01:27:27,479
Speaker 3: who say the San Francisco is all banged up, the

2023
01:27:27,600 --> 01:27:29,439
Speaker 3: Falcons are playing well, there's no way in hell this

2024
01:27:29,439 --> 01:27:31,200
Speaker 3: game should be competitive. I'm telling you right now it

2025
01:27:31,200 --> 01:27:32,640
Speaker 3: will be, and it will not surprise me if San

2026
01:27:32,640 --> 01:27:35,560
Speaker 3: Francisco pulls the upset. Even though it might not be

2027
01:27:35,560 --> 01:27:37,280
Speaker 3: an upset on the points spread, I think from a

2028
01:27:37,320 --> 01:27:39,880
Speaker 3: public perception standpoint, there will be an upset considering how

2029
01:27:39,920 --> 01:27:40,680
Speaker 3: banged up that they are.

2030
01:27:40,800 --> 01:27:43,880
Speaker 4: Okay, from our beer goggles game to our old Troy

2031
01:27:43,960 --> 01:27:46,080
Speaker 4: potential epic failed potential game.

2032
01:27:47,160 --> 01:28:06,559
Speaker 7: Oh my god, Oh my god, oh Chris, I'm so sorry.

2033
01:28:08,120 --> 01:28:10,280
Speaker 4: I feel like Troy gets a little more upset every

2034
01:28:10,320 --> 01:28:13,680
Speaker 4: time we play that, like it evolves, it morphs.

2035
01:28:13,439 --> 01:28:15,519
Speaker 2: Into him getting madder and matter.

2036
01:28:17,240 --> 01:28:21,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, my old Troy potential game that would be

2037
01:28:21,800 --> 01:28:25,320
Speaker 4: Houston going to Seattle on Monday night football. The Seahawks

2038
01:28:25,439 --> 01:28:28,559
Speaker 4: just went into Jacksonville and beat the vaunted Jaguars. Yes,

2039
01:28:28,640 --> 01:28:31,599
Speaker 4: that's a thing. That's a thing now. So the Hawks

2040
01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:36,080
Speaker 4: return home now conquering heroes of the teal torture Chamber

2041
01:28:36,120 --> 01:28:39,479
Speaker 4: in Jacksonville. And the Hawks have quite the home field

2042
01:28:39,520 --> 01:28:43,160
Speaker 4: advantage of themselves, and that's when their defense is at

2043
01:28:43,200 --> 01:28:45,679
Speaker 4: their best. And they'll be going against a Houston Texans

2044
01:28:45,680 --> 01:28:48,000
Speaker 4: team that got all fat and happy during the bye

2045
01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:51,320
Speaker 4: week after beating a useless Titans team and a fake,

2046
01:28:51,400 --> 01:28:55,440
Speaker 4: phony and fraudulent Ravens team. They are not prepared, equipped,

2047
01:28:55,920 --> 01:28:58,800
Speaker 4: or aware of what they are in for. The Seahawks

2048
01:28:58,800 --> 01:29:02,200
Speaker 4: are like if sharks could walk. These are Landhawks, and

2049
01:29:02,280 --> 01:29:04,800
Speaker 4: they are fierce. They didn't even have some of their

2050
01:29:04,840 --> 01:29:06,400
Speaker 4: defenders against the Jaguars.

2051
01:29:06,400 --> 01:29:08,720
Speaker 3: We are a cartoon with sharks that rode like motorcycles

2052
01:29:08,720 --> 01:29:09,840
Speaker 3: and like fault crime or something.

2053
01:29:09,880 --> 01:29:11,720
Speaker 2: Street Sharks, Street Sharks, that's what it was.

2054
01:29:11,720 --> 01:29:14,360
Speaker 4: Okay, it was right after Biker Mice from Biker Mice

2055
01:29:14,400 --> 01:29:16,200
Speaker 4: from That's Bucky O'Hare.

2056
01:29:16,439 --> 01:29:17,800
Speaker 2: Oh, Bucky o' hair.

2057
01:29:18,000 --> 01:29:20,479
Speaker 4: That's right, Okay, I did not know the theme song

2058
01:29:20,600 --> 01:29:21,120
Speaker 4: Give It to Me?

2059
01:29:21,200 --> 01:29:22,840
Speaker 2: Oh was a rap? I don't remember all the lyrics

2060
01:29:22,840 --> 01:29:26,320
Speaker 2: to it. Well, Brie, did you have it in your

2061
01:29:26,320 --> 01:29:31,599
Speaker 2: wrap mixtape? You knew about that? Yeah? Yes, you talked

2062
01:29:31,600 --> 01:29:33,400
Speaker 2: about it on the air last week. Oh that's right,

2063
01:29:33,600 --> 01:29:34,880
Speaker 2: I added myself there.

2064
01:29:35,280 --> 01:29:38,600
Speaker 4: But Houston could be in for a lot of problems

2065
01:29:38,640 --> 01:29:42,360
Speaker 4: in the Pacific Northwest if their solution is c J Stroud,

2066
01:29:42,840 --> 01:29:46,320
Speaker 4: who he even thinks he's washed at the age of

2067
01:29:46,360 --> 01:29:49,719
Speaker 4: twenty four. He said, quote, I feel like I'm getting old.

2068
01:29:49,800 --> 01:29:51,160
Speaker 4: I'm not as quick as I used to be.

2069
01:29:51,240 --> 01:29:52,680
Speaker 2: That's right. He did say that a couple of weeks ago.

2070
01:29:52,680 --> 01:29:54,280
Speaker 2: You're right, Well, maybe it's time to retire.

2071
01:29:54,560 --> 01:29:57,200
Speaker 4: I thought running backs were the ones. With these shortened careers.

2072
01:29:57,280 --> 01:30:00,320
Speaker 4: CJ better hope he can find those young legs again

2073
01:30:00,800 --> 01:30:03,679
Speaker 4: now that he's an ancient twenty four years of age,

2074
01:30:03,800 --> 01:30:06,439
Speaker 4: because he may be running for his life at times

2075
01:30:06,439 --> 01:30:08,880
Speaker 4: against the Seahawks and that defense. I could see this

2076
01:30:08,960 --> 01:30:14,160
Speaker 4: getting ugly for the old man, almost.

2077
01:30:13,920 --> 01:30:15,560
Speaker 2: As old as our instant replay machine.

2078
01:30:15,280 --> 01:30:18,320
Speaker 4: There get to say every week and tries to throw

2079
01:30:18,320 --> 01:30:20,280
Speaker 4: a new wrinkle and who do you got here?

2080
01:30:20,280 --> 01:30:22,440
Speaker 2: In your old Troy epic fail potential?

2081
01:30:22,560 --> 01:30:24,719
Speaker 3: I'm going with the Chargers at home against the Colts

2082
01:30:24,800 --> 01:30:26,640
Speaker 3: last weekend this segment, I had the Chargers in the

2083
01:30:26,680 --> 01:30:29,200
Speaker 3: redemption round because I felt it was a must win

2084
01:30:29,280 --> 01:30:32,559
Speaker 3: game against Miami, a team that cannot wait till end

2085
01:30:32,560 --> 01:30:34,720
Speaker 3: the season fast enough. By the way, I talk about one, two,

2086
01:30:34,760 --> 01:30:36,799
Speaker 3: three kancun although they're already at the beach, what difference

2087
01:30:36,800 --> 01:30:37,000
Speaker 3: does it.

2088
01:30:37,040 --> 01:30:39,800
Speaker 4: Make Mike McDonald They just like f it he's been.

2089
01:30:40,320 --> 01:30:42,120
Speaker 4: We've made it to week eight with him. We might

2090
01:30:42,160 --> 01:30:43,639
Speaker 4: as well just keep him the rest of the year.

2091
01:30:43,720 --> 01:30:48,120
Speaker 3: Also, I can't smack Dianel Mike McDaniel's five thousand minute

2092
01:30:48,160 --> 01:30:50,720
Speaker 3: answers at press conferences while he's trying to contemplate his

2093
01:30:50,840 --> 01:30:55,120
Speaker 3: next word. It is slow death. Trying to listen to

2094
01:30:55,200 --> 01:30:57,120
Speaker 3: Mike McDaniels speak on a week to week basis.

2095
01:30:57,160 --> 01:31:01,000
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, it really is. In He's not inspiring for

2096
01:31:01,000 --> 01:31:02,240
Speaker 2: his team, not in the least bit.

2097
01:31:02,360 --> 01:31:04,640
Speaker 3: Now, that game last week for the Charges was a

2098
01:31:04,680 --> 01:31:06,280
Speaker 3: lot tougher than some thought it might be, But all

2099
01:31:06,320 --> 01:31:09,160
Speaker 3: things considered, they showed themselves, well, you're down your top

2100
01:31:09,200 --> 01:31:12,280
Speaker 3: three offensive tackles. You're down your top two running backs.

2101
01:31:12,520 --> 01:31:15,400
Speaker 3: Injuries all up and down. Kalim Maxtill wasn't there. He's

2102
01:31:15,479 --> 01:31:19,600
Speaker 3: questionable soon, might return this weekend for them. So the

2103
01:31:19,680 --> 01:31:22,480
Speaker 3: thing is they do have a top ten quarterback who

2104
01:31:22,600 --> 01:31:25,160
Speaker 3: I think probably could be in the MVP discussion despite

2105
01:31:25,160 --> 01:31:26,720
Speaker 3: their record right now, because I think he's one of

2106
01:31:26,760 --> 01:31:29,720
Speaker 3: the main things that's even keeping them afloat making spectacular

2107
01:31:29,720 --> 01:31:32,559
Speaker 3: play after spectacular play to help them win games. That

2108
01:31:32,640 --> 01:31:35,800
Speaker 3: throw to Lat mcconkeye in the fourth quarter wrestling away

2109
01:31:35,840 --> 01:31:38,240
Speaker 3: from a would be sack was incredible, and he seems

2110
01:31:38,280 --> 01:31:39,400
Speaker 3: to do stuff like that every week.

2111
01:31:39,400 --> 01:31:39,559
Speaker 5: Now.

2112
01:31:39,560 --> 01:31:41,200
Speaker 2: The problem is, I don't know if you can rely

2113
01:31:41,240 --> 01:31:42,840
Speaker 2: on him to do that every single week. That's the

2114
01:31:42,880 --> 01:31:45,880
Speaker 2: play of the year. Oh it's incredible, Yeah, absolutely amazing.

2115
01:31:45,960 --> 01:31:47,080
Speaker 2: That's an all timer.

2116
01:31:47,520 --> 01:31:50,280
Speaker 3: Now to mention the running the cross body throw he

2117
01:31:50,320 --> 01:31:53,040
Speaker 3: had I think against Denver a few weeks ago, I

2118
01:31:53,040 --> 01:31:55,519
Speaker 3: mean it only arrivals that. I mean, there's a handful

2119
01:31:55,560 --> 01:31:57,439
Speaker 3: of quarterbacks that can make that throw in the NFL

2120
01:31:57,479 --> 01:31:58,240
Speaker 3: at any given time.

2121
01:31:58,320 --> 01:31:59,080
Speaker 2: Highlight Herbert.

2122
01:31:59,200 --> 01:32:02,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, look at how the season started for the Charger offense.

2123
01:32:02,360 --> 01:32:04,400
Speaker 3: Though you know there was an emphasis on putting the

2124
01:32:04,400 --> 01:32:06,280
Speaker 3: ball in Herbert's hands a lot more. They didn't run

2125
01:32:06,320 --> 01:32:08,040
Speaker 3: the ball as much even when they had Amari and

2126
01:32:08,080 --> 01:32:11,519
Speaker 3: Hampton healthy. Ultimately, I think they're gonna have to find

2127
01:32:11,560 --> 01:32:13,280
Speaker 3: some way to get back to some normalcy and running

2128
01:32:13,320 --> 01:32:16,639
Speaker 3: the football, if for no other reason, to keep him upright.

2129
01:32:16,680 --> 01:32:18,400
Speaker 3: You can't have him running for his life left and right.

2130
01:32:18,439 --> 01:32:20,120
Speaker 3: If you're gonna drop back and throw, you better be

2131
01:32:20,120 --> 01:32:22,719
Speaker 3: behind the stout offensive line. If you have Joe Altz

2132
01:32:22,960 --> 01:32:25,240
Speaker 3: and all your other guys healthy upfront, then you can

2133
01:32:25,280 --> 01:32:25,639
Speaker 3: do that.

2134
01:32:25,640 --> 01:32:27,280
Speaker 2: That's not the case right now. They don't have a

2135
01:32:27,360 --> 01:32:28,599
Speaker 2: Rico to run the rock though.

2136
01:32:28,800 --> 01:32:30,880
Speaker 3: Yes, no they don't know they don't have a Rico

2137
01:32:30,920 --> 01:32:32,880
Speaker 3: at this point in time. No, the problem is the

2138
01:32:32,920 --> 01:32:34,760
Speaker 3: way the Cults are playing right now. I might take

2139
01:32:34,800 --> 01:32:38,280
Speaker 3: them over literally anybody like it's too bad they don't

2140
01:32:38,280 --> 01:32:40,200
Speaker 3: have the Bucks on their schedule this year, because I

2141
01:32:40,200 --> 01:32:41,720
Speaker 3: think that game will be spectacular.

2142
01:32:41,880 --> 01:32:43,639
Speaker 2: Those two teams, the way that they're playing right.

2143
01:32:43,560 --> 01:32:45,719
Speaker 4: Now, two most entertaining teams in the league.

2144
01:32:45,760 --> 01:32:47,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, this based on the way that the Chargers and

2145
01:32:47,680 --> 01:32:49,519
Speaker 3: the Colts are playing at this moment in time. Knowing

2146
01:32:49,600 --> 01:32:51,599
Speaker 3: how the Colts are rolling and the Chargers are just

2147
01:32:51,640 --> 01:32:55,040
Speaker 3: so banged up. I can almost definitely see Indy running

2148
01:32:55,080 --> 01:32:57,559
Speaker 3: the Chargers off of their own home fields at Sofi

2149
01:32:57,600 --> 01:32:58,639
Speaker 3: Stadium this coming weekend.

2150
01:32:58,680 --> 01:33:01,559
Speaker 2: I can absolutely see that happening. All right, Mark, what's

2151
01:33:01,640 --> 01:33:03,280
Speaker 2: up under the microscope?

2152
01:33:03,439 --> 01:33:08,360
Speaker 4: I got four franchises under the microscope. Are perennial losers,

2153
01:33:09,160 --> 01:33:11,840
Speaker 4: but might have been able to turn things around if

2154
01:33:11,880 --> 01:33:15,160
Speaker 4: they were just a little bit more patient. Hey Browns,

2155
01:33:15,560 --> 01:33:19,240
Speaker 4: you're one and five. Meanwhile, speaking of your former quarterback

2156
01:33:19,280 --> 01:33:24,240
Speaker 4: Baker Mayfield, five and one. Hey Jets, you're zero and six. Meanwhile,

2157
01:33:24,280 --> 01:33:26,800
Speaker 4: your former QB and Sam Donald is four and two.

2158
01:33:27,280 --> 01:33:29,879
Speaker 2: Hey Panthers, you're three and three.

2159
01:33:29,920 --> 01:33:33,840
Speaker 3: Meanwhile, you had both Baker Mayfield and Sam Donald and

2160
01:33:33,960 --> 01:33:36,240
Speaker 3: couldn't figure out how to get more out of either

2161
01:33:36,320 --> 01:33:38,360
Speaker 3: guy because you are that dysfunctional.

2162
01:33:38,880 --> 01:33:41,519
Speaker 4: You're like the Browns and Jets mixed together into one

2163
01:33:41,600 --> 01:33:45,840
Speaker 4: factory of suck sadness. God help me, but also.

2164
01:33:45,920 --> 01:33:48,080
Speaker 3: Wish you to say, Hey, Raiders, you had Derek Carr

2165
01:33:48,160 --> 01:33:50,680
Speaker 3: and now he's preaching to a congregational Sundays instead of

2166
01:33:50,680 --> 01:33:51,360
Speaker 3: playing football.

2167
01:33:51,400 --> 01:33:55,599
Speaker 2: So oh, for real, there you go. He's that was necessary.

2168
01:33:55,760 --> 01:33:58,280
Speaker 4: I haven't forgot about the Giants. He played for them once,

2169
01:33:58,320 --> 01:34:00,000
Speaker 4: didnety Or was that his brother David?

2170
01:34:00,200 --> 01:34:01,720
Speaker 3: That was David Carr who was a backup for the

2171
01:34:01,760 --> 01:34:04,360
Speaker 3: Giants Super Bowl champion David Carr backing up Eli Manning.

2172
01:34:04,400 --> 01:34:06,680
Speaker 4: By the way, well Giants, cool story. You got a

2173
01:34:06,680 --> 01:34:10,400
Speaker 4: young QB who's showing some potential and is also doing

2174
01:34:10,400 --> 01:34:12,519
Speaker 4: so in a very unsustainable way.

2175
01:34:12,600 --> 01:34:13,360
Speaker 2: He had knocked off.

2176
01:34:13,479 --> 01:34:16,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, if he doesn't get down and stop running the

2177
01:34:16,160 --> 01:34:18,760
Speaker 4: ball so much like that blue tent is waiting for

2178
01:34:18,920 --> 01:34:20,599
Speaker 4: Jackson Dart every game.

2179
01:34:21,880 --> 01:34:22,599
Speaker 2: He's probably got.

2180
01:34:22,520 --> 01:34:27,080
Speaker 4: A man Kv's setting up at his favorite drinks, his food,

2181
01:34:27,200 --> 01:34:30,080
Speaker 4: his snacks, He's got a lazy boy, a plasma screen.

2182
01:34:30,520 --> 01:34:33,439
Speaker 4: Everything should be customized just for him, because that's gonna

2183
01:34:33,479 --> 01:34:36,840
Speaker 4: be his second home if he doesn't stop thinking he's

2184
01:34:36,880 --> 01:34:40,400
Speaker 4: a human truck stick. But they're two and four and

2185
01:34:40,479 --> 01:34:44,640
Speaker 4: meanwhile they're former QB Daniel Jones five and one. Is

2186
01:34:45,000 --> 01:34:48,880
Speaker 4: these quarterbacks weren't the problem. The franchises were. And I

2187
01:34:48,920 --> 01:34:51,960
Speaker 4: will continue to track who won the divorce in under

2188
01:34:52,000 --> 01:34:54,160
Speaker 4: the microscope you got.

2189
01:34:54,640 --> 01:34:56,479
Speaker 3: I'm out with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on the road

2190
01:34:56,600 --> 01:35:00,880
Speaker 3: Monday night football against those Detroit Lions. Tampa, and how

2191
01:35:00,880 --> 01:35:02,759
Speaker 3: great of a matchup it'd be if they played the Colts.

2192
01:35:02,800 --> 01:35:05,120
Speaker 3: The next best matchup, or maybe even a better one,

2193
01:35:05,600 --> 01:35:08,400
Speaker 3: is against the Detroit Lions. After a shaky start against

2194
01:35:08,439 --> 01:35:10,400
Speaker 3: Green Bay, the Lions have found themselves in their back

2195
01:35:10,479 --> 01:35:13,760
Speaker 3: being a top the NFC. Credit to the Chiefs for

2196
01:35:13,720 --> 01:35:15,880
Speaker 3: finding themselves and getting that victory at home against the

2197
01:35:15,920 --> 01:35:18,280
Speaker 3: Lions on Sunday night, But I still think the Lions

2198
01:35:18,320 --> 01:35:20,880
Speaker 3: are the top team in the NFC at the moment.

2199
01:35:20,920 --> 01:35:21,800
Speaker 2: I have a decent.

2200
01:35:21,560 --> 01:35:23,840
Speaker 3: Idea of what they are, especially when they're healthy, which

2201
01:35:23,880 --> 01:35:25,760
Speaker 3: of course they are not, which is going to play

2202
01:35:25,760 --> 01:35:27,840
Speaker 3: a big factor into this weekend's game. Has certainly played

2203
01:35:27,840 --> 01:35:30,320
Speaker 3: a factor into that game against Kansas City last week.

2204
01:35:30,360 --> 01:35:32,519
Speaker 3: But as much as I like Tampa Bay, I'm placing

2205
01:35:32,600 --> 01:35:34,719
Speaker 3: them under the microscope this week as they played Detroit.

2206
01:35:34,760 --> 01:35:36,439
Speaker 3: They are five to one and haven't played the most

2207
01:35:36,479 --> 01:35:39,840
Speaker 3: difficult schedule. They do have back to back wins against

2208
01:35:39,880 --> 01:35:41,799
Speaker 3: Seattle in the forty nine Ers, came up a little short.

2209
01:35:41,600 --> 01:35:43,880
Speaker 2: Against the Eagles. They have a victory over Atlanta.

2210
01:35:43,920 --> 01:35:45,519
Speaker 3: But more than anything, I want to see how much

2211
01:35:45,520 --> 01:35:47,160
Speaker 3: longer they can keep living on the edge with these

2212
01:35:47,200 --> 01:35:49,960
Speaker 3: one possession games we saw about we talked it was

2213
01:35:49,960 --> 01:35:52,000
Speaker 3: infamous with the Chiefs last year. What would they eleven

2214
01:35:52,040 --> 01:35:54,960
Speaker 3: to zero and gains decided by seven points or less?

2215
01:35:55,000 --> 01:35:56,960
Speaker 2: Like everyone they had was a close game.

2216
01:35:57,080 --> 01:35:58,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, like we all know that Tims that tend to

2217
01:35:58,880 --> 01:36:01,680
Speaker 3: lose win all the close games in one season. It

2218
01:36:01,720 --> 01:36:04,360
Speaker 3: seems to regress back to the mean the following year,

2219
01:36:04,640 --> 01:36:06,479
Speaker 3: which is a bad omen for the twenty twenty six

2220
01:36:06,479 --> 01:36:08,960
Speaker 3: Tapa Bay Buccaneers. But for right now, keep riding that

2221
01:36:09,000 --> 01:36:10,160
Speaker 3: wave is working for you.

2222
01:36:10,520 --> 01:36:11,080
Speaker 2: Enjoy it.

2223
01:36:11,160 --> 01:36:13,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, But the crazy part is you realize they are

2224
01:36:13,280 --> 01:36:15,040
Speaker 3: five and one and they have not been anywhere close

2225
01:36:15,040 --> 01:36:17,320
Speaker 3: to healthy since Week one. Tristan Wurf's one of the

2226
01:36:17,360 --> 01:36:20,040
Speaker 3: best offensive linemen, has not played this year. Chris Godwin

2227
01:36:20,120 --> 01:36:22,160
Speaker 3: is out, Mike Evans is out, Bucky Irving is out.

2228
01:36:22,200 --> 01:36:24,320
Speaker 3: Now he make a BOOKI got injured last week is

2229
01:36:24,360 --> 01:36:28,120
Speaker 3: out now. All those guys are key offensive starters, impact players,

2230
01:36:28,120 --> 01:36:31,679
Speaker 3: and they continue to roll regardless. The string of good

2231
01:36:31,720 --> 01:36:33,960
Speaker 3: fortune has to end. At some point, it has to

2232
01:36:33,960 --> 01:36:36,640
Speaker 3: catch up with you, I would think. One thing I

2233
01:36:36,640 --> 01:36:39,639
Speaker 3: will say is that one of the last major litmus

2234
01:36:39,640 --> 01:36:42,280
Speaker 3: tests on their schedule is this Monday night against the

2235
01:36:42,280 --> 01:36:45,080
Speaker 3: Detroit Lions. So in their face right now, is this

2236
01:36:45,160 --> 01:36:47,160
Speaker 3: Lions coming off of the Sunday Night football loss. I

2237
01:36:47,160 --> 01:36:49,160
Speaker 3: will place Baker Mayfield and the rest of the Bucks

2238
01:36:49,200 --> 01:36:52,360
Speaker 3: offense under the microscope to see how they perform on

2239
01:36:52,400 --> 01:36:56,519
Speaker 3: the biggest stage against probably the best opponent on their schedule.

2240
01:36:56,720 --> 01:36:58,960
Speaker 3: I will forgive them for not winning, because again, it's

2241
01:36:58,960 --> 01:37:01,000
Speaker 3: just really hard to continue to win when you have

2242
01:37:01,120 --> 01:37:03,200
Speaker 3: this many injuries. But if they find a way to

2243
01:37:03,200 --> 01:37:05,880
Speaker 3: even stay competitive against the Detroit Lions, that will go

2244
01:37:05,920 --> 01:37:08,040
Speaker 3: a long way and telling me that this Bucks team

2245
01:37:08,080 --> 01:37:09,960
Speaker 3: is actually a team to be reckoned with once they

2246
01:37:10,000 --> 01:37:12,200
Speaker 3: are healthy when we go down the stretch of the season.

2247
01:37:12,439 --> 01:37:13,000
Speaker 2: I'm with you.

2248
01:37:13,160 --> 01:37:16,280
Speaker 4: In fact, in our next category, I'm right there with.

2249
01:37:16,160 --> 01:37:18,080
Speaker 2: You redemption route.

2250
01:37:18,160 --> 01:37:21,360
Speaker 4: The Lions were lying to us last week after we

2251
01:37:21,400 --> 01:37:25,519
Speaker 4: both took them to cover getting points in Kansas City. Yep,

2252
01:37:25,800 --> 01:37:29,719
Speaker 4: they couldn't do that. This is redemption for us and them.

2253
01:37:30,760 --> 01:37:33,720
Speaker 4: I don't know about cover, but I think they are

2254
01:37:33,760 --> 01:37:36,439
Speaker 4: going to beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers back in Detroit

2255
01:37:36,439 --> 01:37:39,360
Speaker 4: and on Monday Night football. Both teams, as you mentioned,

2256
01:37:39,400 --> 01:37:42,640
Speaker 4: they both got injuries. But I gotta think at some

2257
01:37:42,840 --> 01:37:47,720
Speaker 4: point Baker Mayfield and that horseshoe that has been underneath

2258
01:37:47,800 --> 01:37:50,719
Speaker 4: him and tucked away with all that late game magic.

2259
01:37:51,400 --> 01:37:53,720
Speaker 4: Even though he is the MVP front runner in my

2260
01:37:53,800 --> 01:37:57,400
Speaker 4: mind right now, I gotta think this Lions team that

2261
01:37:57,439 --> 01:38:00,479
Speaker 4: has looked like a machine at times before losing to

2262
01:38:00,520 --> 01:38:04,000
Speaker 4: the Chiefs, they may take him out like this, This

2263
01:38:04,040 --> 01:38:08,120
Speaker 4: is the week Jared Goff. They may give him that

2264
01:38:08,200 --> 01:38:11,000
Speaker 4: touchdown that he was in motion for early in that

2265
01:38:11,080 --> 01:38:13,920
Speaker 4: game against Kansas City back at home. Did you see

2266
01:38:13,920 --> 01:38:16,320
Speaker 4: that meme running around that said, God forbid a white

2267
01:38:16,320 --> 01:38:17,360
Speaker 4: boy get a little motion.

2268
01:38:18,160 --> 01:38:19,840
Speaker 2: I did not see that one. No, I can't say

2269
01:38:19,840 --> 01:38:20,240
Speaker 2: that I did.

2270
01:38:20,360 --> 01:38:22,960
Speaker 4: It's like with John Travolta with a do rag. It's

2271
01:38:23,240 --> 01:38:25,519
Speaker 4: I don't know why it's so funny, but that was

2272
01:38:25,600 --> 01:38:28,960
Speaker 4: Jared Goff. They called him for that illegal motion. He

2273
01:38:29,040 --> 01:38:33,040
Speaker 4: needed to stop for a second for half a second there.

2274
01:38:33,240 --> 01:38:35,679
Speaker 4: I don't understand some of the rules with that stuff,

2275
01:38:35,720 --> 01:38:39,080
Speaker 4: but I know they will be without Brian Branch Yes,

2276
01:38:39,439 --> 01:38:44,720
Speaker 4: who might show more fight during the game when he

2277
01:38:44,840 --> 01:38:48,799
Speaker 4: returns after being suspended. And I get it, Juju Smith

2278
01:38:48,840 --> 01:38:51,400
Speaker 4: took a cheap shot on him. The refs didn't call it.

2279
01:38:51,439 --> 01:38:54,080
Speaker 4: The Chiefs didn't get called for any penalties.

2280
01:38:53,560 --> 01:38:57,280
Speaker 3: In that which is almost never happens in a college

2281
01:38:57,280 --> 01:38:59,400
Speaker 3: a professional game where there's no penalties on a team.

2282
01:38:59,439 --> 01:39:01,840
Speaker 4: Okay, I get it. They got Taylor Swift, they got

2283
01:39:01,840 --> 01:39:04,880
Speaker 4: Travis Kelcey. They're the NFL's favorite WI.

2284
01:39:05,439 --> 01:39:08,960
Speaker 3: You're calling some sort of collusion here, a conspiracy right

2285
01:39:09,240 --> 01:39:15,080
Speaker 3: me with Roger No. I just think I'm just hanging

2286
01:39:15,080 --> 01:39:18,240
Speaker 3: into the suite with Taylor Swift and the Kelsey mom.

2287
01:39:18,439 --> 01:39:21,400
Speaker 4: Well, how many penalties did the Lions get? Do you

2288
01:39:21,439 --> 01:39:22,960
Speaker 4: do you want to guess how many they got in

2289
01:39:23,000 --> 01:39:23,360
Speaker 4: that game?

2290
01:39:23,800 --> 01:39:28,639
Speaker 2: Five? M four? You were close.

2291
01:39:29,600 --> 01:39:32,360
Speaker 4: I'll give it to you. Like it was a low

2292
01:39:32,439 --> 01:39:38,080
Speaker 4: and a low flag count overall. That is my redemption game.

2293
01:39:38,240 --> 01:39:40,120
Speaker 4: I think the Lions are going to bounce back in

2294
01:39:40,160 --> 01:39:42,599
Speaker 4: a big way against a good team. So I am

2295
01:39:42,640 --> 01:39:44,760
Speaker 4: going out on a limb a little bit. Have we

2296
01:39:44,840 --> 01:39:47,040
Speaker 4: got time, you know what, Let's step aside for a minute.

2297
01:39:47,040 --> 01:39:47,719
Speaker 4: We'll step aside.

2298
01:39:47,720 --> 01:39:49,560
Speaker 3: We'll do our final category in the next segment that

2299

01:40:57,400 --> 01:40:59,439
Speaker 2: It's all right. Well, we still got an NFL stuff.

2324
01:40:59,479 --> 01:41:02,200
Speaker 3: Yes, I'll get back into the NFL six pack, into

2325
01:41:02,200 --> 01:41:04,519
Speaker 3: my redemption round. My team or player looking to bounce

2326
01:41:04,560 --> 01:41:06,799
Speaker 3: back from last week, and I'm looking at that Brown's

2327
01:41:07,160 --> 01:41:10,679
Speaker 3: offense at home against Miami. Both teams are one and five,

2328
01:41:10,800 --> 01:41:13,719
Speaker 3: So the obvious cliche question is who needs it more.

2329
01:41:14,720 --> 01:41:17,080
Speaker 3: I think it's fairly obvious that Mike McDaniel Miami needs

2330
01:41:17,080 --> 01:41:18,840
Speaker 3: to win this more than Keva Stefanski and the Browns.

2331
01:41:18,880 --> 01:41:20,240
Speaker 2: Who needs the first pick more?

2332
01:41:20,360 --> 01:41:22,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think I'm going out on the limits

2333
01:41:22,400 --> 01:41:25,599
Speaker 3: saying that Kevin Stefanski's job is most likely as safe

2334
01:41:25,640 --> 01:41:27,200
Speaker 3: as it can be for a team that's probably not

2335
01:41:27,280 --> 01:41:28,840
Speaker 3: gonna win more than four games this year.

2336
01:41:29,040 --> 01:41:31,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, but behind young quarterbacks?

2337
01:41:31,439 --> 01:41:31,639
Speaker 5: Yeah.

2338
01:41:31,840 --> 01:41:34,040
Speaker 2: Well, look also, I mean a lot of their issues

2339
01:41:34,120 --> 01:41:35,000
Speaker 2: is not even his fault.

2340
01:41:35,000 --> 01:41:38,360
Speaker 3: The Deshaun Watson situation, the quarterback situation that they find

2341
01:41:38,400 --> 01:41:41,360
Speaker 3: themselves in in general, is not Stefanski. I think Stefanski

2342
01:41:41,439 --> 01:41:42,840
Speaker 3: is one of the best coaches in the NFL. I

2343
01:41:42,880 --> 01:41:44,960
Speaker 3: think he's just been placed in a really tough situation.

2344
01:41:45,600 --> 01:41:48,280
Speaker 3: Uh really, at the hands of his owner and his

2345
01:41:48,400 --> 01:41:49,599
Speaker 3: general manager both well.

2346
01:41:49,640 --> 01:41:51,000
Speaker 2: Asked Mike tom what about his GM?

2347
01:41:51,160 --> 01:41:53,519
Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, exactly. Well, that's that's a good point. I

2348
01:41:53,640 --> 01:41:55,960
Speaker 3: agree with Mike Tom on there too, as do I

2349
01:41:56,320 --> 01:41:59,280
Speaker 3: I'd be pretty upset. It's like it looks like the

2350
01:41:59,400 --> 01:42:03,400
Speaker 3: Browns said, well, if we can't beat the Steelers, will

2351
01:42:03,439 --> 01:42:05,880
Speaker 3: help the Bengals out maybe they can beat them. Yeah,

2352
01:42:05,960 --> 01:42:07,800
Speaker 3: and they did, And now all of a sudden, we

2353
01:42:07,880 --> 01:42:10,240
Speaker 3: have a race in the AFC North. So how about that?

2354
01:42:10,360 --> 01:42:11,800
Speaker 3: But my redemption round is going to go to the

2355
01:42:11,880 --> 01:42:14,200
Speaker 3: unit that let me down hard last week on my

2356
01:42:14,280 --> 01:42:18,240
Speaker 3: two on two off picks, the Browns and more specifically

2357
01:42:18,400 --> 01:42:21,559
Speaker 3: their offense. It's certainly no shame to get dominated by Pittsburgh.

2358
01:42:21,560 --> 01:42:23,320
Speaker 3: I for your Cleveland, It's been happening for fifty years,

2359
01:42:23,320 --> 01:42:25,000
Speaker 3: so they're used to it at this point. I just

2360
01:42:25,160 --> 01:42:27,559
Speaker 3: expected a better fight and honestly a better game plan

2361
01:42:27,680 --> 01:42:29,799
Speaker 3: from the Browns in that game. Sometimes I think coaches

2362
01:42:30,280 --> 01:42:33,439
Speaker 3: overthink strategy in certain situations, so the Steelers will think

2363
01:42:33,760 --> 01:42:35,960
Speaker 3: we're gonna run the ball more with Judkins. So let's

2364
01:42:36,040 --> 01:42:38,000
Speaker 3: not do that and have our rookie third round pick

2365
01:42:38,080 --> 01:42:39,400
Speaker 3: throw the ball fifty two times.

2366
01:42:40,640 --> 01:42:41,280
Speaker 2: Clever girl.

2367
01:42:41,479 --> 01:42:43,719
Speaker 3: Now obviously a lot of those passes happened in garbage

2368
01:42:43,760 --> 01:42:46,200
Speaker 3: time for Dylan Gabriel, but the point still holds.

2369
01:42:46,560 --> 01:42:48,839
Speaker 2: Why not give the ball to your good Yon tailback

2370
01:42:48,920 --> 01:42:49,439
Speaker 2: a lot more?

2371
01:42:49,520 --> 01:42:51,400
Speaker 3: We saw the impact that he can have, and that

2372
01:42:51,560 --> 01:42:54,040
Speaker 3: loss in London against Minnesota, he was the best offensive

2373
01:42:54,040 --> 01:42:56,960
Speaker 3: player on the field for the That's right, right, that

2374
01:42:57,080 --> 01:43:01,800
Speaker 3: pony not Kevinski was asked about it earlier this week

2375
01:43:01,800 --> 01:43:03,400
Speaker 3: and he said the game got away from them in

2376
01:43:03,439 --> 01:43:05,760
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter and that was a factor, which I

2377
01:43:05,840 --> 01:43:09,679
Speaker 3: do understand. But Judkins still only had twelve total touches

2378
01:43:09,840 --> 01:43:12,479
Speaker 3: in the entire game. If the run isn't working, get

2379
01:43:12,520 --> 01:43:14,640
Speaker 3: him involved in the passing game. If the Browns are

2380
01:43:14,640 --> 01:43:17,920
Speaker 3: gonna have any success for the remainder of the season offensively,

2381
01:43:18,360 --> 01:43:20,280
Speaker 3: it's obviously going to be mostly on the backs of

2382
01:43:20,360 --> 01:43:23,000
Speaker 3: their defense. But standing on the sturdy back of that

2383
01:43:23,120 --> 01:43:26,400
Speaker 3: defense is quench John Jukins. So he's the guy I

2384
01:43:26,520 --> 01:43:28,479
Speaker 3: expect to have a bounce back week against as we

2385
01:43:28,560 --> 01:43:31,479
Speaker 3: talked about earlier, a wolful Miami run defense, and I

2386
01:43:31,520 --> 01:43:34,160
Speaker 3: think Qwen John Jenkins runs crazy and the Bells or

2387
01:43:34,160 --> 01:43:36,000
Speaker 3: excuse me, the Browns find a way to get a

2388
01:43:36,040 --> 01:43:36,679
Speaker 3: victory this week.

2389
01:43:37,080 --> 01:43:40,040
Speaker 4: I mean, that'd be big for them because they're under fire.

2390
01:43:40,479 --> 01:43:43,560
Speaker 4: You trade Joe Flacco and he puts up a performance

2391
01:43:43,680 --> 01:43:45,920
Speaker 4: like that, and both the old guys were doing their thing,

2392
01:43:46,040 --> 01:43:48,040
Speaker 4: he and Aaron Rodgers. That was one of the best

2393
01:43:48,560 --> 01:43:49,599
Speaker 4: Thursday Night games.

2394
01:43:49,760 --> 01:43:51,520
Speaker 2: Ever, it really was. It was spectacular.

2395
01:43:51,600 --> 01:43:54,640
Speaker 4: Honestly, that's one of the better NFL games we've had

2396
01:43:54,680 --> 01:43:56,759
Speaker 4: the last few years, especially if you are an older

2397
01:43:56,800 --> 01:43:57,760
Speaker 4: guy and getting older.

2398
01:43:57,880 --> 01:44:00,439
Speaker 3: The game that I believe Aaron Rodgers dubbed the Icy

2399
01:44:00,479 --> 01:44:03,120
Speaker 3: Hot Bowl going into the week the Uncle Bowl.

2400
01:44:03,200 --> 01:44:05,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Icy out Bowl with a forty forty year

2401
01:44:05,320 --> 01:44:06,960
Speaker 2: old versus a forty one year old. And both of

2402
01:44:07,000 --> 01:44:08,720
Speaker 2: those guys played spectacular.

2403
01:44:08,840 --> 01:44:11,920
Speaker 4: And Joe Flacco is looking more Chris Taylor than Chris

2404
01:44:12,000 --> 01:44:13,200
Speaker 4: Taylor these days a little bit?

2405
01:44:13,280 --> 01:44:15,120
Speaker 2: Is anyone else seeing that? That's a good point. I know,

2406
01:44:15,240 --> 01:44:17,120
Speaker 2: he's no longer a Dodger and he's not along for

2407
01:44:17,200 --> 01:44:18,479
Speaker 2: this ride to the World Series.

2408
01:44:18,560 --> 01:44:20,639
Speaker 3: But if you know, you know, do you feel bad

2409
01:44:20,680 --> 01:44:22,400
Speaker 3: for not only was he no longer a Dodger, he

2410
01:44:22,439 --> 01:44:24,960
Speaker 3: signed with the Angels. You can go anywhere else they

2411
01:44:25,080 --> 01:44:25,639
Speaker 3: go that bad?

2412
01:44:25,880 --> 01:44:27,840
Speaker 2: That bad? You got to keep his house. I'm sure.

2413
01:44:28,120 --> 01:44:30,120
Speaker 2: Maybe that's maybe that's what we have to relocate.

2414
01:44:30,640 --> 01:44:32,720
Speaker 4: Remember that old commercial I think it was for Joe

2415
01:44:32,800 --> 01:44:36,479
Speaker 4: Montana football and Genesis and he's in a k C.

2416
01:44:37,000 --> 01:44:40,840
Speaker 4: Chiefs uniform and then he gets traded because that was

2417
01:44:40,880 --> 01:44:43,120
Speaker 4: the big special in that game. And now he's wearing

2418
01:44:43,160 --> 01:44:45,160
Speaker 4: a Jets uniform or something. He's like, I just bought

2419
01:44:45,200 --> 01:44:47,799
Speaker 4: a house's second.

2420
01:44:48,120 --> 01:44:49,920
Speaker 3: So, by the way, I know, we said that Joe

2421
01:44:49,960 --> 01:44:51,679
Speaker 3: Flacco wasn't going to make that huge of a difference

2422
01:44:51,720 --> 01:44:52,320
Speaker 3: for Cincinnati.

2423
01:44:52,439 --> 01:44:54,720
Speaker 2: You know, two games in what, ten days in or

2424
01:44:54,760 --> 01:44:57,559
Speaker 2: whatever looks pretty good to me. We can't get them,

2425
01:44:57,600 --> 01:44:58,000
Speaker 2: all right.

2426
01:44:58,120 --> 01:45:00,320
Speaker 4: We were also the first to say that he was

2427
01:45:00,360 --> 01:45:02,559
Speaker 4: gonna end up being a Cincinnati That is true.

2428
01:45:03,120 --> 01:45:03,760
Speaker 2: Nobody had that.

2429
01:45:03,920 --> 01:45:06,320
Speaker 4: Of course, nobody will ever know if we said that,

2430
01:45:06,520 --> 01:45:09,639
Speaker 4: because Bree could never find that audio for some weird reason.

2431
01:45:09,720 --> 01:45:12,760
Speaker 3: Absolutely all right, So we got so that's it. That's

2432
01:45:12,800 --> 01:45:14,680
Speaker 3: it for the NFL six pack. Let's go to us

2433
01:45:14,720 --> 01:45:17,759
Speaker 3: at college football. Now, Mark, what do we have college

2434
01:45:17,800 --> 01:45:19,160
Speaker 3: football forecast with?

2435
01:45:21,479 --> 01:45:21,599
Speaker 5: Now?

2436
01:45:21,680 --> 01:45:24,400
Speaker 3: One thing we did mentioned earlier tonight we talked about

2437
01:45:24,680 --> 01:45:26,880
Speaker 3: the I don't know if I'll call it a disaster, Yeah,

2438
01:45:27,120 --> 01:45:30,000
Speaker 3: I will, the disaster at Chapel Hill, the two and

2439
01:45:30,160 --> 01:45:32,400
Speaker 3: four and zero and two in conference, Bill Belichick and

2440
01:45:32,400 --> 01:45:34,240
Speaker 3: the North Carolina tar Hills losing against cal.

2441
01:45:34,360 --> 01:45:36,240
Speaker 2: Oh I thought you were going to say, Miami, Yeah.

2442
01:45:36,160 --> 01:45:38,000
Speaker 3: Not the biggest headline of the night. You're right at him,

2443
01:45:38,520 --> 01:45:42,000
Speaker 3: second rank Miami losing against Louisville. Carson Beck, who was

2444
01:45:42,040 --> 01:45:44,439
Speaker 3: the front runner for the Heisman Trophy coming into this weekend,

2445
01:45:44,479 --> 01:45:48,280
Speaker 3: throws four interceptions. Looks horrible against Louisville, a Louisville team

2446
01:45:48,320 --> 01:45:50,280
Speaker 3: that people I think were underrating. Louisville is five and

2447
01:45:50,320 --> 01:45:52,680
Speaker 3: one coming into this game, so or four and one

2448
01:45:52,720 --> 01:45:54,479
Speaker 3: coming into this game is one of the most games

2449
01:45:54,479 --> 01:45:56,439
Speaker 3: in the ACC the last two years. So I saw

2450
01:45:56,479 --> 01:45:58,559
Speaker 3: that there was some sort of push over for whatever reason,

2451
01:45:58,680 --> 01:46:00,400
Speaker 3: because they're not in the SEC or the Big Ten,

2452
01:46:00,800 --> 01:46:03,519
Speaker 3: they've flown under the radar. Well, put their stamp on

2453
01:46:03,600 --> 01:46:05,920
Speaker 3: it on Friday night, got a big victory over Miami,

2454
01:46:06,280 --> 01:46:07,840
Speaker 3: and now the ACC is a little up in the

2455
01:46:07,880 --> 01:46:09,640
Speaker 3: air and I like it. Well, got a big one

2456
01:46:09,760 --> 01:46:11,840
Speaker 3: this weekend between Georgia taking Duke, which will be a

2457
01:46:11,880 --> 01:46:13,320
Speaker 3: big swing game in the conference as well.

2458
01:46:13,560 --> 01:46:17,760
Speaker 2: If you are Michael Irving or.

2459
01:46:19,240 --> 01:46:22,840
Speaker 4: I don't know who else I like from the two

2460
01:46:22,880 --> 01:46:26,479
Speaker 4: thousand and three team, rip Sean Taylor, Oh from.

2461
01:46:26,400 --> 01:46:30,160
Speaker 2: Those great Miami teams, Ed Reid, DJ Williams. Who am

2462
01:46:30,200 --> 01:46:30,720
Speaker 2: I thinking about?

2463
01:46:30,880 --> 01:46:35,120
Speaker 3: Jeremy, seanahe Willis, Miguel Willis, McGahee, Frank Gore, Clinton portis

2464
01:46:35,160 --> 01:46:37,760
Speaker 3: all those guys are the same team. All those guys

2465
01:46:37,840 --> 01:46:38,759
Speaker 3: were in the same backfield.

2466
01:46:38,880 --> 01:46:42,760
Speaker 4: You're still in good shape. Bree's mouth is a gabe.

2467
01:46:42,840 --> 01:46:45,840
Speaker 4: She's like, how did they only win one national championship? Well,

2468
01:46:45,880 --> 01:46:49,599
Speaker 4: they got screwed to two against Ohio State. They should

2469
01:46:49,600 --> 01:46:50,280
Speaker 4: have went back to back.

2470
01:46:50,360 --> 01:46:54,120
Speaker 3: The pass interference that wasn't from Adams Carolina Panther. What

2471
01:46:54,280 --> 01:46:55,920
Speaker 3: was the defensive backslash receivers name?

2472
01:46:56,800 --> 01:47:00,360
Speaker 2: This is a good one. He played way o High State.

2473
01:47:00,479 --> 01:47:04,320
Speaker 2: Need the Carroll on Panthers draft? Solid? Yes, not great?

2474
01:47:04,880 --> 01:47:07,880
Speaker 2: Was it Chris Campbell? Was it Chris Campbell? Chris Gamble?

2475
01:47:08,000 --> 01:47:09,600
Speaker 2: Was Chris Gamble? Yeah? It was Chris Gambell. Thank you

2476
01:47:09,600 --> 01:47:10,720
Speaker 2: for the hell? Did Breed know that?

2477
01:47:11,320 --> 01:47:15,280
Speaker 4: Did he intercept your saints or something? Okay, The point

2478
01:47:15,439 --> 01:47:18,400
Speaker 4: is Miami is still in good shape. They are with

2479
01:47:18,560 --> 01:47:22,000
Speaker 4: one loss. Why because their schedule is garbage. The rest

2480
01:47:22,040 --> 01:47:23,360
Speaker 4: of that way, they don't play another rank.

2481
01:47:23,560 --> 01:47:25,200
Speaker 3: I do think Pitt at the end of the season

2482
01:47:25,240 --> 01:47:26,639
Speaker 3: could be a tough one for them. I will say

2483
01:47:26,680 --> 01:47:28,920
Speaker 3: that under the radar, Yes, tough game.

2484
01:47:29,000 --> 01:47:29,120
Speaker 5: Now.

2485
01:47:29,240 --> 01:47:32,040
Speaker 2: The thing about it too, is like the ACC Virginia.

2486
01:47:32,080 --> 01:47:35,400
Speaker 3: If Virginia continues to win, they're playing well, Georgia Tech

2487
01:47:35,439 --> 01:47:38,599
Speaker 3: has had some close calls. They're playing well the ACC

2488
01:47:38,800 --> 01:47:41,759
Speaker 3: right now. I think they got two teams in last season.

2489
01:47:41,800 --> 01:47:43,880
Speaker 3: I think they might only get one this year, so

2490
01:47:43,920 --> 01:47:45,320
Speaker 3: I'll have to see how that ends up. Playing outs

2491
01:47:45,360 --> 01:47:48,040
Speaker 3: no matter. Yeah, they got SMU and Clemson in last season.

2492
01:47:48,320 --> 01:47:50,799
Speaker 4: Still a shock to see them lose this game tonight,

2493
01:47:50,880 --> 01:47:52,439
Speaker 4: But this is the type of setting.

2494
01:47:52,560 --> 01:47:53,639
Speaker 2: Although they were at home.

2495
01:47:53,720 --> 01:47:57,719
Speaker 4: Okay, that makes it even crazier. Friday night games are weird.

2496
01:47:57,840 --> 01:48:00,920
Speaker 4: They are stuff like this happens has as a fan.

2497
01:48:00,960 --> 01:48:02,200
Speaker 4: That's kind of why I love him, to be honest

2498
01:48:02,240 --> 01:48:04,400
Speaker 4: with you. Yeah, you know what, Kevin earlier today, I

2499
01:48:04,439 --> 01:48:06,400
Speaker 4: saw him at M five seventy OL Sports. We were

2500
01:48:06,400 --> 01:48:08,280
Speaker 4: talking about what we're gonna lead with, and Kevin said,

2501
01:48:08,320 --> 01:48:10,640
Speaker 4: pay attention to that Miami game just.

2502
01:48:10,680 --> 01:48:12,280
Speaker 2: In case I just had a weird feeling that it

2503
01:48:12,360 --> 01:48:14,519
Speaker 2: might happen. Took out the slugger on him. Yeh. I

2504
01:48:14,520 --> 01:48:15,560
Speaker 2: wouldn't have put money on it.

2505
01:48:15,600 --> 01:48:17,439
Speaker 3: And also look at Minnesota getting a big victory over

2506
01:48:17,479 --> 01:48:19,560
Speaker 3: Adam's Nebraska team, who we thought was a sleeper for

2507
01:48:19,640 --> 01:48:20,599
Speaker 3: the playoff coming into the year.

2508
01:48:20,680 --> 01:48:21,599
Speaker 2: That was my dark horse.

2509
01:48:21,920 --> 01:48:23,519
Speaker 4: Is Matt Rule going to take the job at Penn

2510
01:48:23,560 --> 01:48:24,320
Speaker 4: State is going to be.

2511
01:48:24,360 --> 01:48:26,320
Speaker 2: Off for the job at Penn State. He deserved the job.

2512
01:48:26,360 --> 01:48:28,160
Speaker 2: Do you think that James Frankly can win big games?

2513
01:48:28,200 --> 01:48:29,679
Speaker 2: And I love Matt rule.

2514
01:48:30,560 --> 01:48:33,679
Speaker 3: Gomer radio partner Kevin, how dare you slammer? Matt Ruhle's

2515
01:48:33,680 --> 01:48:35,519
Speaker 3: an excellent coach. And by the way, he's a Penn

2516
01:48:35,560 --> 01:48:38,559
Speaker 3: State guy. The Penn State ad hired him when they

2517
01:48:38,600 --> 01:48:41,240
Speaker 3: were both at Temple. There's all sorts of connections there

2518
01:48:41,280 --> 01:48:43,280
Speaker 3: that link him to that job. Well, he was asked

2519
01:48:43,280 --> 01:48:45,720
Speaker 3: about it earlier this week. He didn't deny that he

2520
01:48:45,760 --> 01:48:48,280
Speaker 3: will leave, you know, just very spoken, just in a

2521
01:48:48,320 --> 01:48:49,160
Speaker 3: lot of cliches.

2522
01:48:49,280 --> 01:48:51,280
Speaker 2: What happened to deny deny den exactly?

2523
01:48:51,360 --> 01:48:53,360
Speaker 3: Well, I guess he doesn't want the Nick Saban Miami

2524
01:48:53,439 --> 01:48:54,360
Speaker 3: Dolphin thing to pop up.

2525
01:48:54,400 --> 01:48:56,600
Speaker 4: Okay, can we move forward to the games coming up

2526
01:48:56,640 --> 01:48:58,080
Speaker 4: in mere hours from now?

2527
01:48:58,240 --> 01:48:58,559
Speaker 2: Of course?

2528
01:48:58,720 --> 01:49:00,719
Speaker 4: What do you want to start with Washington at Michigan.

2529
01:49:00,840 --> 01:49:02,000
Speaker 4: I know that's of interest to you.

2530
01:49:02,160 --> 01:49:04,720
Speaker 3: Making sneaky good game because I think Washington, with this

2531
01:49:04,920 --> 01:49:08,120
Speaker 3: one loss at home against Ohio State, they don't have

2532
01:49:08,360 --> 01:49:10,960
Speaker 3: they do have a solid schedule coming up. I know

2533
01:49:11,000 --> 01:49:13,280
Speaker 3: they have Oregon still on their schedule as well, but

2534
01:49:13,720 --> 01:49:16,120
Speaker 3: they can find themselves in the playoff mix. The Big

2535
01:49:16,200 --> 01:49:18,360
Speaker 3: Ten's gonna get three to four teams in the playoff.

2536
01:49:18,680 --> 01:49:21,840
Speaker 3: I guarantee that I can find Washington in that mix

2537
01:49:21,920 --> 01:49:25,320
Speaker 3: along with the USC's of the world, kind of fighting

2538
01:49:25,360 --> 01:49:27,479
Speaker 3: for that potential last bid in the Big Ten. And

2539
01:49:27,520 --> 01:49:28,920
Speaker 3: I don't think a lot of people coming into the

2540
01:49:28,960 --> 01:49:31,719
Speaker 3: season would have given Washington even a second thought about

2541
01:49:31,720 --> 01:49:34,120
Speaker 3: being a playoff consentder. But yet here we are sitting

2542
01:49:34,160 --> 01:49:35,919
Speaker 3: at five and one. I think they have a legitimate

2543
01:49:35,960 --> 01:49:38,040
Speaker 3: shot and if they find a way to beat Michigan,

2544
01:49:38,360 --> 01:49:39,760
Speaker 3: that would definitely help their calls.

2545
01:49:39,840 --> 01:49:43,839
Speaker 4: Meanwhile, Michigan's trying to respond after getting rolled by USC

2546
01:49:44,160 --> 01:49:47,200
Speaker 4: at the Coliseum last weekend, where Noah Eagle was on

2547
01:49:47,240 --> 01:49:49,640
Speaker 4: the call on NBC on Big Ten Saturday Night.

2548
01:49:49,880 --> 01:49:51,360
Speaker 2: Yes, we had no Egle on earlier.

2549
01:49:51,400 --> 01:49:53,519
Speaker 4: I just have to get that in again. This is

2550
01:49:53,560 --> 01:49:57,599
Speaker 4: a really good matchup. It makes me, I guess, even

2551
01:49:58,560 --> 01:50:01,120
Speaker 4: a little bit more impressed with a state because they

2552
01:50:01,200 --> 01:50:04,599
Speaker 4: went into Washington and put it to them with their

2553
01:50:04,680 --> 01:50:07,920
Speaker 4: defense and that second half, especially against Demon Williams who

2554
01:50:08,479 --> 01:50:11,360
Speaker 4: last week against Rutgers went for five hundred and thirty

2555
01:50:11,400 --> 01:50:13,400
Speaker 4: eight total yards by himself.

2556
01:50:13,800 --> 01:50:16,760
Speaker 3: Rutgers has an FCS style defense, which is shocking to

2557
01:50:16,840 --> 01:50:18,240
Speaker 3: be considering Greg Cianol's there.

2558
01:50:18,320 --> 01:50:19,880
Speaker 2: All right, So who do you like in the matchup?

2559
01:50:19,920 --> 01:50:21,519
Speaker 2: I mean, come on now, pop.

2560
01:50:21,400 --> 01:50:22,200
Speaker 6: Quiz, hot shot.

2561
01:50:22,280 --> 01:50:23,240
Speaker 2: Oh Washington, Michigan.

2562
01:50:23,600 --> 01:50:27,040
Speaker 3: Oh Washington by all means oh yeah, big house as

2563
01:50:27,040 --> 01:50:29,240
Speaker 3: physical as Michigan is. Yes, on the road at the

2564
01:50:29,240 --> 01:50:31,200
Speaker 3: Big House. We must protect this big House.

2565
01:50:31,280 --> 01:50:31,479
Speaker 2: Yeah.

2566
01:50:31,520 --> 01:50:34,040
Speaker 3: Look, they had looked, they looked impressive against Oklahoma and

2567
01:50:34,040 --> 01:50:36,640
Speaker 3: in a losing effort. I do think that they that

2568
01:50:36,720 --> 01:50:39,320
Speaker 3: their their quarterback Underwood is improving and it's going to

2569
01:50:39,360 --> 01:50:41,960
Speaker 3: be a baller And I think next year the sky's

2570
01:50:42,000 --> 01:50:44,880
Speaker 3: the limit. This year, it's kind of playing out the

2571
01:50:44,920 --> 01:50:46,920
Speaker 3: way I thought they would. They look good against some teams,

2572
01:50:47,200 --> 01:50:49,479
Speaker 3: looked terrible against others, and I thought they'd end up

2573
01:50:49,479 --> 01:50:51,640
Speaker 3: with a seven and five ish sort of season. I

2574
01:50:51,720 --> 01:50:53,519
Speaker 3: think Washington goes in. I won't say they put it

2575
01:50:53,560 --> 01:50:55,280
Speaker 3: on them, but I think I do think Washington goes

2576
01:50:55,320 --> 01:50:56,400
Speaker 3: to the Big House and gets a victory.

2577
01:50:56,439 --> 01:50:59,840
Speaker 4: All Right, Ole Miss at Georgia. Now, Ole Miss had

2578
01:50:59,840 --> 01:51:02,920
Speaker 4: a bit of a scare last week, almost lost at home,

2579
01:51:03,040 --> 01:51:05,920
Speaker 4: not to Washington, to Washington State, Right, that would have

2580
01:51:06,000 --> 01:51:09,559
Speaker 4: been pitiful. Did they overlook them because George is coming up?

2581
01:51:09,560 --> 01:51:11,439
Speaker 2: Problem? Was that the old trap game tap there for

2582
01:51:11,520 --> 01:51:14,320
Speaker 2: Lane Kiffin? I don't know. They did not even game

2583
01:51:14,400 --> 01:51:17,160
Speaker 2: plan for Washington, for wa Zoo, That's what it looked like.

2584
01:51:17,439 --> 01:51:19,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, they got this Trinidad Chambliss who was stepped in

2585
01:51:20,000 --> 01:51:22,519
Speaker 3: for Austin Simmons, their starting quarterback, and he's been playing

2586
01:51:22,600 --> 01:51:25,160
Speaker 3: so well. It's to Tom Brady Drew Bletzell effect. I

2587
01:51:25,160 --> 01:51:26,960
Speaker 3: can't sit this guy. Are you kidding me?

2588
01:51:27,439 --> 01:51:27,479
Speaker 5: So?

2589
01:51:27,840 --> 01:51:30,240
Speaker 3: The way he's been playing there for ole Miss, I

2590
01:51:30,320 --> 01:51:33,320
Speaker 3: think it's been very impressive. But I can't pick against

2591
01:51:33,360 --> 01:51:35,439
Speaker 3: Kirby and Georgia in this situation. And as much as

2592
01:51:35,479 --> 01:51:39,000
Speaker 3: I like Lane, Lane usually falls shorting situations like this.

2593
01:51:39,160 --> 01:51:39,720
Speaker 2: It's one of those.

2594
01:51:39,840 --> 01:51:41,960
Speaker 3: Until Lane Kiffing gets a victory like this, in a

2595
01:51:42,040 --> 01:51:44,839
Speaker 3: spot like this on the road in the SEC, I can't.

2596
01:51:44,640 --> 01:51:45,639
Speaker 2: Pick him to get a victory.

2597
01:51:45,720 --> 01:51:48,040
Speaker 4: You say he's gonna stay in his lane of not

2598
01:51:48,160 --> 01:51:50,200
Speaker 4: getting those big victories in the SEC.

2599
01:51:50,400 --> 01:51:52,560
Speaker 3: Still, I'm not saying that he won't do it. I

2600
01:51:52,680 --> 01:51:53,880
Speaker 3: just got to see him do it before I can

2601
01:51:53,920 --> 01:51:56,160
Speaker 3: pick him to do it. I gotta see that defense. Yeah,

2602
01:51:56,720 --> 01:51:59,679
Speaker 3: being able to stop a very good team in the SEC.

2603
01:51:59,840 --> 01:52:02,280
Speaker 4: I haven't seen that enough. And even if Georgia gets

2604
01:52:02,360 --> 01:52:03,240
Speaker 4: down ten early.

2605
01:52:03,160 --> 01:52:05,559
Speaker 3: That's what they do, right, Like, I trust Georgia's defense

2606
01:52:05,600 --> 01:52:07,840
Speaker 3: more than our trolls old missus defense. In this game,

2607
01:52:07,920 --> 01:52:10,000
Speaker 3: they beating LSU and that's not that impressive on No,

2608
01:52:10,120 --> 01:52:11,640
Speaker 3: it is. And by the way, LSU's gonna lose to

2609
01:52:11,720 --> 01:52:15,840
Speaker 3: Vanderbilt this afternoon. I'm sorry, Well, Vanderbilt, I believe it's

2610
01:52:15,880 --> 01:52:18,439
Speaker 3: favorite in that game, which is if you're an Lure

2611
01:52:18,560 --> 01:52:21,240
Speaker 3: fans probably is. An LSU fan would probably see it

2612
01:52:21,240 --> 01:52:23,200
Speaker 3: as a slap in the face that Vanderbilt will be favorite.

2613
01:52:23,320 --> 01:52:23,439
Speaker 5: Now.

2614
01:52:23,479 --> 01:52:25,280
Speaker 3: Granted, if you've seen those two teams play this year,

2615
01:52:25,320 --> 01:52:28,120
Speaker 3: you'd understand why. And I mean, Vanderbilt is no longer

2616
01:52:28,160 --> 01:52:30,280
Speaker 3: an ALSE also ran in the in the conference. They're

2617
01:52:30,320 --> 01:52:32,200
Speaker 3: one of the best teams in the SEC. As weird

2618
01:52:32,240 --> 01:52:33,120
Speaker 3: as it is to say, that.

2619
01:52:33,240 --> 01:52:36,719
Speaker 4: Leads me to this question, is uh, Brian Kelly gonna

2620
01:52:36,720 --> 01:52:40,719
Speaker 4: get fired here? No, because you can't get the offense

2621
01:52:40,760 --> 01:52:41,240
Speaker 4: in locks.

2622
01:52:41,360 --> 01:52:42,920
Speaker 3: I know, and that's his side of the ball. The

2623
01:52:43,000 --> 01:52:45,439
Speaker 3: defense they fixed. The defense has been spenttacular this year.

2624
01:52:45,960 --> 01:52:48,120
Speaker 3: Just can't figure out the offense for LSU. But I

2625
01:52:48,200 --> 01:52:50,400
Speaker 3: still think you've got a Heisman Trophy winner out of it.

2626
01:52:50,439 --> 01:52:52,680
Speaker 3: A couple of years ago, I will say, And it's

2627
01:52:52,720 --> 01:52:55,200
Speaker 3: been going around all year long. Every coach that's been

2628
01:52:55,240 --> 01:52:57,679
Speaker 3: at LSU for as long as he's been there over

2629
01:52:57,720 --> 01:53:00,479
Speaker 3: the past ten years has won a national championship. Fifteen

2630
01:53:00,640 --> 01:53:03,720
Speaker 3: one of these things is not even Ogeron went on.

2631
01:53:03,840 --> 01:53:06,320
Speaker 3: He was on the outs one national championship. Les Miles

2632
01:53:06,400 --> 01:53:09,439
Speaker 3: won one, of course with like a three loss team exactly,

2633
01:53:09,880 --> 01:53:12,160
Speaker 3: So Brian Kelly has that working against him. But I

2634
01:53:12,200 --> 01:53:14,640
Speaker 3: still think even if this season can go south for them,

2635
01:53:14,720 --> 01:53:17,160
Speaker 3: and going south as eight or nine wins, I still

2636
01:53:17,160 --> 01:53:19,160
Speaker 3: think he's safe for next season at the very least.

2637
01:53:19,280 --> 01:53:21,639
Speaker 4: Well, Lincoln Riley, we talked about it a little bit earlier,

2638
01:53:21,760 --> 01:53:25,000
Speaker 4: but uh, what's gonna happen with them being almost ten

2639
01:53:25,080 --> 01:53:25,839
Speaker 4: point dogs.

2640
01:53:26,240 --> 01:53:27,360
Speaker 2: I think they covered the road.

2641
01:53:27,479 --> 01:53:30,320
Speaker 4: They haven't won on the road against Notre Dame since

2642
01:53:30,360 --> 01:53:31,080
Speaker 4: twenty eleven, it's.

2643
01:53:30,960 --> 01:53:31,559
Speaker 2: Been a long time.

2644
01:53:31,880 --> 01:53:33,679
Speaker 3: I do think they end up covering the spread because

2645
01:53:33,680 --> 01:53:35,599
Speaker 3: they showed a little a different side of themselves against

2646
01:53:35,640 --> 01:53:37,920
Speaker 3: Michigan that they can actually out physical somebody up front,

2647
01:53:38,400 --> 01:53:40,760
Speaker 3: but to NOA Eagles point from last hour.

2648
01:53:41,320 --> 01:53:41,439
Speaker 5: Uh.

2649
01:53:41,600 --> 01:53:44,360
Speaker 3: Their defense. Notre Dames defense has been spectacular all season long.

2650
01:53:44,400 --> 01:53:45,960
Speaker 3: Despite that, I know, I kind of poop with the

2651
01:53:46,000 --> 01:53:48,040
Speaker 3: level of competition, but they are a really, really good

2652
01:53:48,080 --> 01:53:50,439
Speaker 3: defensive team ever since getting off to that slow start

2653
01:53:50,439 --> 01:53:51,439
Speaker 3: against A and M and Miami.

2654
01:53:51,560 --> 01:53:54,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, they have like the two best losses you could

2655
01:53:54,040 --> 01:53:56,840
Speaker 4: possibly have to two top five teams, depending on how

2656
01:53:56,920 --> 01:53:59,880
Speaker 4: much Miami slides after this loss tonight, but still they

2657
01:54:00,000 --> 01:54:02,280
Speaker 4: they look pretty darn dominator. I think they've had seven

2658
01:54:02,360 --> 01:54:04,200
Speaker 4: picks the last two weeks of her Dame.

2659
01:54:04,360 --> 01:54:06,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, and this is a must win for them, even

2660
01:54:06,840 --> 01:54:09,599
Speaker 3: more so than for USC. USC I think can suffer now.

2661
01:54:09,720 --> 01:54:12,040
Speaker 3: USC would probably need to run the table to be

2662
01:54:12,080 --> 01:54:15,840
Speaker 3: a legitimate playoff contender. Notre Dame if they lose this game,

2663
01:54:15,920 --> 01:54:17,759
Speaker 3: it does not matter what they do because the remainder

2664
01:54:17,800 --> 01:54:20,679
Speaker 3: of their schedule is dog s, so it does not matter.

2665
01:54:21,000 --> 01:54:22,560
Speaker 3: They have to win this game if they want to

2666
01:54:22,600 --> 01:54:24,600
Speaker 3: be considered for the college football Playoff. If they do not,

2667
01:54:24,720 --> 01:54:26,200
Speaker 3: their season is effectively over.

2668
01:54:26,400 --> 01:54:28,839
Speaker 4: Tennessee. Do they have to win Atbama?

2669
01:54:29,160 --> 01:54:30,639
Speaker 2: Do they have to pull off the upset?

2670
01:54:30,840 --> 01:54:32,880
Speaker 3: No, because I think similar to the Big Ten, you know,

2671
01:54:32,960 --> 01:54:35,560
Speaker 3: if Tennessee just continues to play well if they can

2672
01:54:35,640 --> 01:54:38,200
Speaker 3: suffer a loss here against Alabama and still stay afloat

2673
01:54:38,400 --> 01:54:40,200
Speaker 3: when it comes to the College Football playoff RAE. So

2674
01:54:40,240 --> 01:54:41,440
Speaker 3: I think this is one of those. It's going to

2675
01:54:41,440 --> 01:54:44,240
Speaker 3: be a pretty entertaining game, but not necessarily a must

2676
01:54:44,280 --> 01:54:46,320
Speaker 3: win for either team. I think Alabama might need it

2677
01:54:46,400 --> 01:54:49,120
Speaker 3: more than Tennessee because Alabama has that Florida State loss

2678
01:54:49,160 --> 01:54:51,400
Speaker 3: working against them, and that looks worse and worse as

2679
01:54:51,400 --> 01:54:52,320
Speaker 3: the season continues to go.

2680
01:54:52,600 --> 01:54:55,240
Speaker 2: Eh Week one, madness, you got to put that stuff

2681
01:54:55,240 --> 01:54:55,640
Speaker 2: in the past.

2682
01:54:56,080 --> 01:54:58,560
Speaker 3: Florida State, the way Florida State has looked the last

2683
01:54:58,600 --> 01:54:59,040
Speaker 3: few weeks.

2684
01:54:59,200 --> 01:55:00,240
Speaker 2: No, I love.

2685
01:55:03,120 --> 01:55:06,400
Speaker 4: Coming up next, what's on our resume when it comes

2686

2702
01:55:48,680 --> 01:55:52,800
Speaker 4: KFI one. People are responding to our conversation earlier about

2703
01:55:52,920 --> 01:55:58,160
Speaker 4: Otani Jay at Nobody fr and one.

2704
01:55:58,360 --> 01:55:59,160
Speaker 2: Whatever that means.

2705
01:56:00,440 --> 01:56:02,720
Speaker 4: Are we going to have a conversation about the Angels

2706
01:56:02,720 --> 01:56:03,240
Speaker 4: at some point?

2707
01:56:03,560 --> 01:56:05,280
Speaker 2: Why would I waste your time with that? Who wants

2708
01:56:05,280 --> 01:56:05,640
Speaker 2: to hear that.

2709
01:56:07,520 --> 01:56:11,240
Speaker 4: We had that two years ago? Yeah, right before you left? Right,

2710
01:56:11,400 --> 01:56:15,800
Speaker 4: there's no need, it's done, it's settled. You got ownership

2711
01:56:16,120 --> 01:56:20,040
Speaker 4: is the biggest advantage or disadvantage in their case in sports.

2712
01:56:20,560 --> 01:56:22,760
Speaker 2: It's proven, all right, And that is the Angel portion

2713
01:56:22,920 --> 01:56:23,680
Speaker 2: of your show right.

2714
01:56:23,600 --> 01:56:24,200
Speaker 5: There there it is.

2715
01:56:24,760 --> 01:56:27,400
Speaker 2: There's the combo, all right, March, Let's get to it.

2716
01:56:30,160 --> 01:56:34,120
Speaker 3: To Angels in the oftfield on because that's the only

2717
01:56:34,160 --> 01:56:35,320
Speaker 3: way we're having a conversation.

2718
01:56:35,600 --> 01:56:40,160
Speaker 2: Where's Christopher Lloyd? All right? Last week I went to

2719
01:56:40,320 --> 01:56:46,160
Speaker 2: and two and sadly Kevin WENTZ four. Damn it.

2720
01:56:47,200 --> 01:56:50,040
Speaker 4: Now Kevin is still ahead of me. This is even

2721
01:56:50,120 --> 01:56:54,800
Speaker 4: sadder by two. So far this season, He's thirteen and eleven.

2722
01:56:55,520 --> 01:56:59,000
Speaker 4: I'm eleven and thirteen, Kevin, give me an on a

2723
01:56:59,120 --> 01:57:00,520
Speaker 4: pick for a favorite week.

2724
01:57:00,480 --> 01:57:03,120
Speaker 3: Going Seattle seven point favorites over the Houston Texas. I

2725
01:57:03,160 --> 01:57:05,520
Speaker 3: think I'm echoing something that you mentioned in the six pack.

2726
01:57:06,040 --> 01:57:10,200
Speaker 3: Seattle's defense has been spectacular this season. Offensively, Sam Darnell

2727
01:57:10,240 --> 01:57:13,400
Speaker 3: continues to roll based on what happened last year in Minnesota,

2728
01:57:13,600 --> 01:57:16,200
Speaker 3: just rolling it right over with the Seattle offense. Now,

2729
01:57:16,280 --> 01:57:18,600
Speaker 3: what happens in the postseason, we'll have to see. But

2730
01:57:18,680 --> 01:57:21,400
Speaker 3: for right now, you know he's he's playing well. They're

2731
01:57:21,440 --> 01:57:25,640
Speaker 3: playing well. That Houston Texan team still have some offensive issues,

2732
01:57:26,200 --> 01:57:27,880
Speaker 3: still has some things to work through. And the guys

2733
01:57:27,920 --> 01:57:30,720
Speaker 3: you mentioned, the old man CJ. Stroud, it's gonna be

2734
01:57:30,760 --> 01:57:32,280
Speaker 3: running for his life, to say the least against that

2735
01:57:32,320 --> 01:57:33,320
Speaker 3: Seattle defensive front.

2736
01:57:33,720 --> 01:57:36,080
Speaker 4: So twenty four, he's got a foot in the grave exactly.

2737
01:57:37,200 --> 01:57:39,520
Speaker 2: So I love the Seattle Seahawks by seven in this game.

2738
01:57:39,640 --> 01:57:44,360
Speaker 4: If not, if not more, wait a second, Shadow, my cat.

2739
01:57:44,840 --> 01:57:45,960
Speaker 4: I let them pick the favorites.

2740
01:57:46,040 --> 01:57:47,000
Speaker 2: They also picked Seattle.

2741
01:57:47,520 --> 01:57:51,000
Speaker 4: Shadow got Seattle minus three at home like last night.

2742
01:57:51,240 --> 01:57:54,000
Speaker 4: Oh did the line move then I don't know last

2743
01:57:54,000 --> 01:57:56,760
Speaker 4: thing that I saw three and a half seven. Well, fine,

2744
01:57:56,800 --> 01:57:57,360
Speaker 4: take the three.

2745
01:57:58,440 --> 01:57:59,280
Speaker 2: Well we can't lose.

2746
01:58:01,600 --> 01:58:05,720
Speaker 4: This is our best bet. Yeah, apparently, give me the three.

2747
01:58:05,840 --> 01:58:07,920
Speaker 4: All right, give me your other on your other favorite.

2748
01:58:08,000 --> 01:58:09,760
Speaker 3: I got the Rams his three point favorites over the

2749
01:58:09,840 --> 01:58:11,600
Speaker 3: Jaguars in London. And the Rams have not looked to

2750
01:58:11,680 --> 01:58:14,360
Speaker 3: their best at all this season. They have another similar

2751
01:58:14,360 --> 01:58:16,320
Speaker 3: to the Eagles to a certain degree. I feel like

2752
01:58:16,360 --> 01:58:18,440
Speaker 3: they have another gear to get to and for whatever reason,

2753
01:58:18,480 --> 01:58:20,680
Speaker 3: they just haven't yet. They've had some injuries on the

2754
01:58:20,720 --> 01:58:23,680
Speaker 3: offensive line. I think Rob Hevenstein is out again. Phukanaku

2755
01:58:23,840 --> 01:58:25,840
Speaker 3: is gonna miss this game too, but I don't think

2756
01:58:25,880 --> 01:58:27,720
Speaker 3: it's gonna end up mattering. I know the Jags have

2757
01:58:27,760 --> 01:58:30,000
Speaker 3: a de facto home game, they play fifteen games a

2758
01:58:30,080 --> 01:58:33,280
Speaker 3: year in London, but I think the Rams of Devantie

2759
01:58:33,280 --> 01:58:34,640
Speaker 3: Adams and the defense got something for him.

2760
01:58:34,680 --> 01:58:36,640
Speaker 2: So I'm taking the Rams here minus three over the Jags.

2761
01:58:36,760 --> 01:58:40,120
Speaker 4: Okay, my other cat is going with the Lions minus

2762
01:58:40,240 --> 01:58:45,040
Speaker 4: six on Monday Night Football. The Lions have been a machine.

2763
01:58:45,280 --> 01:58:47,760
Speaker 4: I know they lost to KC. They're coming home. They

2764
01:58:47,800 --> 01:58:50,280
Speaker 4: are tough at Ford Field. I expect them to bounce

2765
01:58:50,400 --> 01:58:53,760
Speaker 4: back even against the MVP and Baker Mayfield. Minus six

2766
01:58:53,920 --> 01:58:56,720
Speaker 4: is a big number, but I just have faith in

2767
01:58:56,840 --> 01:58:59,280
Speaker 4: the Lions for whatever reason, For the first time in

2768
01:58:59,360 --> 01:59:01,720
Speaker 4: the history of fandom, people have faith in the line.

2769
01:59:01,920 --> 01:59:05,040
Speaker 4: Right those are my two favorites. Give me an off now,

2770
01:59:05,160 --> 01:59:06,040
Speaker 4: Kevin an underdog.

2771
01:59:06,200 --> 01:59:08,360
Speaker 3: I'm going to the Charges being favored by a point

2772
01:59:08,360 --> 01:59:10,360
Speaker 3: and a half over the Colts. I explained this in

2773
01:59:11,160 --> 01:59:14,280
Speaker 3: our previous segment in the six pack. I just think

2774
01:59:14,360 --> 01:59:16,360
Speaker 3: that I know the Charges are probably getting it because

2775
01:59:16,360 --> 01:59:18,080
Speaker 3: they're at home, but the considering how the Colts are

2776
01:59:18,120 --> 01:59:20,240
Speaker 3: playing and how banged up the Charges are, I think

2777
01:59:20,240 --> 01:59:22,040
Speaker 3: they're a little bit on barrow time right now. So

2778
01:59:22,160 --> 01:59:23,800
Speaker 3: the Chargers, I think she needs to wait, get their

2779
01:59:23,840 --> 01:59:26,200
Speaker 3: guys back healthy, and they'll still be a contender in

2780
01:59:26,280 --> 01:59:28,440
Speaker 3: the AFC. But right now, the way both of these

2781
01:59:28,480 --> 01:59:30,960
Speaker 3: teams are playing, I can't justify the Charges being favored

2782
01:59:31,000 --> 01:59:31,800
Speaker 3: of the Colts at the moment.

2783
01:59:32,120 --> 01:59:33,240
Speaker 2: I got the Colts as well.

2784
01:59:33,360 --> 01:59:38,000
Speaker 4: Okay, my Colts, because Daniel Jones is my guy, picked

2785
01:59:38,080 --> 01:59:40,200
Speaker 4: him before the season, have a redemption year.

2786
01:59:40,240 --> 01:59:40,840
Speaker 2: He's having it.

2787
01:59:41,880 --> 01:59:45,640
Speaker 4: I also got I'm going opposite of you here, Okay,

2788
01:59:46,560 --> 01:59:50,000
Speaker 4: because of that home field advantage in London. I'm taking

2789
01:59:50,040 --> 01:59:52,240
Speaker 4: the Jaguars plus three against the Rams.

2790
01:59:52,400 --> 01:59:53,840
Speaker 2: Okay, if Puko is.

2791
01:59:53,840 --> 01:59:57,280
Speaker 4: Playing, I definitely wouldn't do this, But the Jaguars also

2792
01:59:57,400 --> 01:59:59,920
Speaker 4: just lost at home, so I'm saying they're gonna bounce back.

2793
02:00:00,240 --> 02:00:03,400
Speaker 4: But I did have a rule against ever betting on

2794
02:00:03,520 --> 02:00:06,960
Speaker 4: games overseas like this, so random, I'm breaking it this time.

2795
02:00:07,000 --> 02:00:08,320
Speaker 2: Who's your last off?

2796
02:00:08,480 --> 02:00:11,240
Speaker 3: I'm going with the green Bay Packers seven point favorites

2797
02:00:11,280 --> 02:00:13,400
Speaker 3: over the Cardinals. I mentioned it earlier. There's something missing

2798
02:00:13,440 --> 02:00:15,640
Speaker 3: from the Packers, at least right now. Doesn't mean they

2799
02:00:15,640 --> 02:00:17,600
Speaker 3: won't be a Super Bowl contender, doesn't mean they won't

2800
02:00:17,640 --> 02:00:19,800
Speaker 3: make a deep rumber right now, that offense is not

2801
02:00:19,960 --> 02:00:22,520
Speaker 3: inspiring confidence in me at this moment in time. I

2802
02:00:22,720 --> 02:00:25,520
Speaker 3: like the Cardinals competitiveness, even though their record isn't the best,

2803
02:00:25,800 --> 02:00:27,400
Speaker 3: and I think they actually find a way to cover

2804
02:00:27,480 --> 02:00:28,920
Speaker 3: the spread against green Bay this weekend.

2805
02:00:29,040 --> 02:00:32,040
Speaker 4: And that's two on two, off on f and A.

2806
02:00:33,200 --> 02:00:35,280
Speaker 4: We're off till this time next week.

2807
02:00:35,440 --> 02:00:35,800
Speaker 2: That's right.

2808
02:00:36,280 --> 02:00:38,640
