I don't even know about what 53 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 1: that means. Um that were true about the bench with 54 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: Banetta performance the NFL Plus, I felt like I was just, Uh, 55 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: I was just fitting in there. But I think we're 56 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 1: gonna do more of these uh Q and a's in 57 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 1: the off season on NFL. It's very fun looking forward 58 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: to that. Um, we're gonna get into the news, We're 59 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: gonna get caught up on some things before we get 60 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: on the bird. There was a guy that we worked 61 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: with the NFL media years ago, really nice guy. UM 62 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: had been in the business a long time. Uh, kind 63 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 1: of middle aged dude. And this is when we were 64 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: all younger. Um Mark not as young as Greg and I, 65 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: but he was younger as well. Um and uh. He 66 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 1: would come to the news room just a terrific fellow, 67 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 1: just a really super nice guy. But he also wanted to, 68 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: you know, be hip to the kids today. So after 69 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: he would come in for a week to work on 70 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: whatever project he was working on. And then Greg, I'll 71 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: throw to you on this one at the end. It 72 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: might have been the last time we ever saw him, actually, uh, 73 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: or maybe it wasn't, but it doesn't really matter, because 74 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: I flattened it out now and that's how I remember it. Mark, 75 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: I'll throw it to you. Then, as he packed up 76 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: his his little briefcase and and pulled over his jacket 77 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: and stood up to to get ready to leave the 78 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: office for the final time, he said what to us, said, Fellows, 79 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 1: I gotta go catch a bird. He also would put 80 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: on sunglasses. He had sunglasses that I didn't know if 81 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: you were going for more details like fellas, gotta catch 82 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 1: a bird. That stuck with us. And I think also 83 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 1: that was part of his daily that was his common lexicon. 84 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 1: I don't think he was just trying to be cool 85 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 1: to us, but he was from a little with the skateboard. 86 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 1: But it doesn't change the fact that he was very nice, 87 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: as you pointed, terrific film. Um, probably a great dad. Um. 88 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: Oh yeah. So we're gonna get caught up on news. 89 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: We can talk a little bit um big picture super Bowl, 90 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: but we're not really going to dive in until later 91 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 1: in the week. We're gonna do our like hardcore greggy 92 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: super Bowl preview or earlier this year. We're gonna put 93 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: that out on Wednesday, which is nice, give people a 94 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 1: nice little run a runway for that show, and then 95 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: we'll have some guests in the last two shows from 96 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: Radio Row in Arizona. Somewhere in Arizona. I assumes that 97 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 1: a convention center, right, it is the Arizona super Bowl. Yes, 98 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 1: get that right. We've gotten a couple of missives internally. 99 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 1: Don't call it anything else but the Arizona super Bowl. 100 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: I like, personally, you'll like this one, grave digger, because 101 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: that's where you grew up. When we were told this 102 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: is the North Texas super Bowl. There was, of course, 103 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: also the New York New Jersey super Bowl with the slash, 104 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 1: which is always a little bit clumsy, but civics, you know, 105 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: there's some everybody wants a piece of that Super bowl. 106 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: It's it's good that way, all right, Do I cover everything? Well, 107 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: we'll also talk a little about what we did over 108 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 1: the week. That's what I wanted to get to next, Greggy, 109 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: now that I've set the table, before we catch the bird. Uh, 110 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 1: this weekend was uh crazy, still tragically two years since 111 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: we lost Chris Westling um and Uh, Lakisha came in 112 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,160 Speaker 1: on a bird herself from St. Louis, and we had 113 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 1: a really nice celebration of west this weekend, getting together 114 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 1: all the people that knew him well, uh still with 115 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: the company, um and either even some people who were 116 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,919 Speaker 1: no longer with the company but knew Chris and loved Chris, 117 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,840 Speaker 1: and and we had almost it was almost like a 118 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 1: Chris Wesling pub crawl on Friday, which was nice. Uh. 119 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 1: And then uh Saturday, I know you got together with Lukisha, 120 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: Mark and Greg and your wife at a nice dinner. Uh. 121 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: And then on Sunday actually transported Lakisha to the Greg dinner, 122 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,840 Speaker 1: but didn't feel welcome or necessarily that I would be. 123 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: I would have been surprising Greg Hi where I wasn't 124 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: like it was like I wanted that to stay as 125 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,159 Speaker 1: it was. And then Sunday, we had a nice brunch 126 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: in Manhattan Beach with Gonzo and and Connie and and 127 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: my boys and Emily. Was just a great way to 128 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 1: celebrate the man with Lakisha, who all of us seven 129 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: incredible amount of affection for Yeah. I mean, I think 130 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: that the thing for us because Corona got in the 131 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: way of a lot of time with West and then 132 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: everything happened is as it did. And we when I 133 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: think whenever we try to get together as a group, 134 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: it is always West centric. But this this obviously stands 135 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: out and stood out as something completely different. I mean, 136 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: we went Dan did a great job of like coming 137 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: up with a lineup of a schedule for Friday, one 138 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: comment and we were already let's say a few hours 139 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 1: into the day and it doesn't lose comments just like 140 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: like a West day would have been lack of planning, 141 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: but we you need the DAN to get the planning 142 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: done to get us from place to we would have 143 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: just been at the Whaler for seven hours planning. The 144 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: planner gave it this great structure and um, I think 145 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: that West would have gotten a great kick out of 146 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: you Tube getting into it about deconstruct meant to be 147 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 1: nothing but we went to one place, um Tony peas 148 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: Uh in Marina del Rey, where West I think often 149 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 1: not so much with us. There were events for wom them, 150 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: but that was sort of his place to go on 151 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: his own a lot because it was close to where 152 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: he was living at the time. And we walked in 153 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: and like all the bartenders, Um, one of them that 154 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: we've known has been friends with with West for a while, 155 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: the minute they saw the kisha, the minute they saw us, 156 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: they just lined up. It was just exactly what it 157 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 1: was for. And like I think it was that vibe. 158 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: Everywhere we went there was someone that seemed to remember 159 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 1: Wes Um knew why we were there, and like the 160 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: day just was in a perfectly way infused with all 161 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: these memories of him because it was we really like 162 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,079 Speaker 1: we didn't pick anything on the fringe. These were deep 163 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: died in the world West hangouts, and that is like 164 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,199 Speaker 1: the best way I think you could possibly honor him, 165 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 1: because that was him at his peak. West was bringing 166 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: all sorts of people together, not like we aren't friends, 167 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 1: but he would be bringing different groups of friends together 168 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 1: and putting them all in a stew and jumping around 169 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: the town and drinking in the daytime, like there's nothing 170 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: you could possibly do to channel the spirit of West. 171 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: And there's a lot of laughs and us just having fun, 172 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 1: get a chance for us to be together. There's some 173 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: tears certainly at times talking about stuff. It's all unfair 174 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: everything that that happened, and it's like everything and that 175 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: was West. Like there's deep conversations and there was like 176 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: the dumbest conversations possible, and that was West. He he 177 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 1: navigated that sort of whole spectrum of like what it 178 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 1: was like to be a human. So I did feel 179 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: like we we did him justice, uh, And it was 180 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 1: beautiful and it is heavy too. There is something I 181 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: would have never known because I've never lost someone like 182 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 1: like this close to us. Um that the anniversary of 183 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 1: his his dea is passing, is it? Is it real? 184 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: You know? It is something. There is something to it. 185 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,959 Speaker 1: There's a heaviness and just your thought goes to him. 186 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 1: And I know that's especially true for Kesha, but it's 187 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 1: true for all of us too, that it really is 188 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 1: a thing. And it's always gonna be at this time 189 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: in that week now between the super Bowl, so it's 190 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 1: gonna be everything wrapped up together with with West, and 191 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: I was happy we could we could do that.

And then he keep going east 225 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: to Culver City where we all really got to know 226 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 1: each other, um where the old NFL network offices were. 227 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 1: And you go to Rockos where they got the two 228 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,439 Speaker 1: for one special, and that's where you start to get 229 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 1: banged up. Although the Irish car bomb that we did 230 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 1: at Tony PA's was untoward. Whoever green lit that, I 231 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 1: think it was Gonzalez. Um that was a point of departure. 232 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 1: That was when the button was hit and it was like, 233 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 1: all right, someone else has taken already hit Rocos. Then 234 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 1: of course there's only one place to close it, the Cozy. 235 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: Also in Culver City, where we had so many, so 236 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: many great days and nights. Let's face it, the Cozy. 237 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 1: I have to thank jet Erica's um significant other for 238 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 1: rescuing Eric and I at the cozy and getting because 239 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: they're like that. We were doing group photos and all 240 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: these sty all these spots, and you know, at the 241 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 1: first couple were great. Everyone's got their arms from each other. 242 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: They look fresh and sunlit. And as the day goes on, 243 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,959 Speaker 1: you know, people start to disappear from group photos like that. 244 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 1: Just you know, I just noticed the next day the 245 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:55,559 Speaker 1: eyes are starting to droop and glaze over um. Anyway, 246 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: and we saw it, like I love, it's such a 247 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: make you feel local things. We saw the bartender, our 248 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: bartender friend from Tony Peas act the cozy. It's just 249 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: like that over um. Alright, long live Chris westling Um 250 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: a great man. All right, let's get into ay it 251 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: is Super Bowl weak. Let's share as we get into things, 252 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 1: what's an unpopular Super Bowl hot take that you have. 253 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna start here Um, I love tradition. I love 254 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 1: I love the idea of you know, the Super Bowl 255 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 1: and you know, being able to know, for instance, oh, 256 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 1: what hurts Gregg more than anything, like we know that's 257 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: the Giants winds over the Patriots, tough to swallow mountaintops. 258 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 1: Um you know one one of the greatest always feels 259 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 1: good to hurt you. One of the greatest losses of 260 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 1: all time eighteen and O those Patriots were. And then 261 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 1: of course the Giselle Tom can't throw the ball and 262 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 1: catch it to game with with Wes Welker. That one't 263 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: hurt way more. You never believe me on that. And 264 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: the third of the Broncos Conference Championship that was actually 265 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 1: the most pain right there. It must be hard. Um uh. 266 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: But I want to say it's time to move away 267 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:17,559 Speaker 1: from the Roman Roman numerals. It's it's time keep obviously 268 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: keep the I don't want it to be Super Bowl 269 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: or whatever, but at a certain point the Roman numerals 270 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 1: have gotten clunky. Right now we are at fifty seven, 271 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 1: so it's l v uh one one. Just what are 272 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: we doing at this point? It's like, oh, maybe things 273 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 1: will get better when we get to sixty than it's 274 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 1: l x l X one lex. It's just maybe I'm 275 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 1: sorry I And it's like a certain point, like when 276 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 1: they did super Bowl fifty, they were like, oh, it's 277 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: the fiftieth anniversity. We went with the number. Let's just 278 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: transition at this point. Well, so when they went fifty, 279 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 1: it was the perfect that's your take, yea, the change 280 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: that you want. We're now thought leaders, so we can 281 00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: leave this charge. That's an unpopular super Bowl take. So 282 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 1: I think most people be like, oh, no, shut up, 283 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: I'm with you. I don't think most of your destructor 284 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: you're you're so innovative, but you know we're not going 285 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 1: to go along with you on this. Roman numerals have 286 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 1: faded from like common out the things we use commonly, 287 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: I mean even as kids. Also, the super Bowl was 288 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: like it was kind of cool. It's like super Bowl 289 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 1: twenty three. I can roll with that because we were 290 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 1: we were sort of taught that in school. To sund degree, 291 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: I'm not even sure it's saw in school. It was 292 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: like in fifth grade in people were taught I don't 293 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 1: even know if that's happening anymore. I was like, better 294 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: at if you were a football fan and you were 295 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 1: young you were better than your friends at Roman numerals 296 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 1: because you had some experience. What is the point out? 297 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 1: And when it when when it got to fifty, it 298 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 1: was this perfect transition point. So when we were creeping 299 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 1: towards fifty one, I was thinking, I hope we just 300 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 1: hope they wouldn't possibly get some common sense would drip 301 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: in here. And then if we're back to these right, 302 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 1: what do we care about Rome? By the way, let's 303 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: start there. But that's a whole different subject for the 304 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 1: what do we care about Rome? Podcast? It just made 305 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 1: it seem like grandiois or whatever the word, and it 306 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: just made it out here we are, like six decades later, 307 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: and maybe it's time for the transition. Yeah, I'm with you. 308 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: I could not. Oh well, mine would be to just 309 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: ban all legacy talk before the game, with maybe a 310 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: few exceptions for like a thirty five year old quarterback 311 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: or old or maybe thirty three, just like, don't need 312 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 1: to talk about legacy. That it's very important that you 313 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: set that age. Yeah, before we move, is it thirty 314 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 1: three or thirty five. I'll give the legacy people a 315 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 1: little bone here and make it thirty three. That's it 316 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 1: we're talking about these two quarterbacks, it's like twenty seven. 317 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 1: Like if I saw this whole thing is like, well, 318 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 1: if Patrick Mahomes retired today, where does he stand or 319 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 1: is he already a holiday cares He's twenty seven years old. 320 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 1: He's younger than Peyton Manning was when before peytonman won 321 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 1: a playoff game. He's younger then Tom Brady was before 322 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: Tom Brady even was a first team All Pro. Like 323 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 1: all this stuff where Jalen Hurts fits, what's it gonna 324 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: mean for Travis Kelsey's legacy? Like legacy maybe a little 325 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 1: bit after the game if you want to talk about 326 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: things and put into context. Okay, fine, I not talking 327 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 1: about Hurts his legacy, right, I just mean like all 328 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: this stuff of like, well will they ever be back here? 329 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 1: Will like ahead of the game, especially talking about what 330 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,720 Speaker 1: it means just let their careers play out. It's such 331 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 1: a team sport too. I know that's a boring thing 332 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,439 Speaker 1: to point out, but it's like Patrick Mahomes had his 333 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 1: defense stand up for him in this a FC championship 334 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,479 Speaker 1: to give him one more chance. If they didn't stand up, 335 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,640 Speaker 1: it took nothing away from what he did. The fact 336 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:29,200 Speaker 1: that they stunk in that game where Tom Brady walked 337 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 1: the ball down the field with Rob Gronkowski to get 338 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl. Ineen, that didn't change Patrick Mahomes 339 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 1: being the best quarterback in the league that year. Just 340 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:39,719 Speaker 1: that's Tom Brady outdoled him on that. They all this 341 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: legacy stuff is stupid. We can be smarter just stopping 342 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:45,199 Speaker 1: I think the three of us can choose to be 343 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 1: But Chane, you are trying to stop an asteroid from 344 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: screaming to Earth because there's such a there's still this 345 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 1: two week gap between the conference championships in the Super Bowl, 346 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,360 Speaker 1: that this talk just invariably bleeds up, especially when it's 347 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,199 Speaker 1: like stuff like CBS, US whatever. We're like, they're not 348 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 1: covering football NonStop. You know, I'll never forget the CP. 349 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: To use the word on our website. Center position was 350 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 1: that was that? What it was? I don't know what 351 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: it was. It was called the CP, the position, I 352 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 1: don't know. It's it's so acronym that we know one 353 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: even knows that. In the morning of the Broncos Seahawks 354 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 1: Super Bowl, which just said if Peyton Mannon wins this game, 355 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: he's the greatest quarterback ever. The debates over he is 356 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 1: officially there's no way Brady is gonna pass him in 357 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,360 Speaker 1: the end, because that was like a conversation there at 358 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 1: that point that like his individual plus if he beats 359 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 1: the Seahawks in this spot where when they got blown out, 360 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: that would like him impregnable. It was like, now you 361 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 1: look back on what a waste of time? Yeah, well, 362 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 1: we like to get caught in the moment. It's kind 363 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 1: of the three. I don't think it's fine, you know, 364 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 1: I think I agree with your point largely. I think 365 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: when you have a true generational great like Patrick Mahomes, 366 00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 1: it is worth almost in real time just for me anyway. 367 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: It's like, okay, so he's twenty seven, this is his 368 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 1: third super Bowl. He could win a second here and 369 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 1: then you're like, we talked about how could he be 370 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 1: the greatest ever? Were watching that guy in the very 371 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,120 Speaker 1: like at the peak of his powers. But I think 372 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:15,880 Speaker 1: there are limits, like you could I think you talked 373 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 1: about Travis Kelsey at this point, these guys that are 374 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 1: really established, like where does he stack up? But the idea, 375 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 1: the idea that like Sunday, necessarily whether they win or lose, 376 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:30,160 Speaker 1: is what also things flip on. I also struggle with that, 377 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,920 Speaker 1: because I hear you you can play your best and lose. 378 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: Tom Brady's best super Bowl I will always believe was 379 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:43,399 Speaker 1: the game they lost to the Eagles. That's all right, 380 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 1: how about you? Mark? Well, mine is a little more 381 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 1: micro about this week. And like one thing I find 382 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 1: happens every year is there's this deep um because it's like, oh, 383 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 1: you you pour media figures have to go to Super 384 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 1: Bowl cities and figure out how to enjoy yourself and 385 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,439 Speaker 1: get around the berg of that year's choice. And I 386 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: just was like, maybe let's not judge um super Bowl 387 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 1: cities after having spent like thirty six hours in said 388 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,199 Speaker 1: city twelve or fourteen or twenty of them in a 389 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,719 Speaker 1: hotel where you're like basically in a good mood or not, 390 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 1: based on who you've seen from your workplace, like I 391 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,640 Speaker 1: would say, particularly Phoenix, I can I can already tell 392 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: we'll probably get a little bit knocked because the stadium 393 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 1: itself is really far away, but I like, well, just 394 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 1: like give it a chance, because it's like anything else 395 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: because Phoenix last time I was trying to they all 396 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 1: blend together, and that's also feels like a from on 397 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,159 Speaker 1: high viewpoint. But when I was really thinking about our 398 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 1: last Phoenix Super Bowl. Yeah it's not New Orleans, which 399 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: I mean, you really, how can you compare with New Orleans? Like, uh, 400 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: you know, West and I were out in the middle 401 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 1: of Hoboken for the New York one, so that tinged 402 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 1: my viewpoint of that Super Bowl. Wes how close Hoboken 403 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: actually is to that Stadium's close to Midtown? No, but 404 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 1: we were coming. We were taking a hundred and ninety 405 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 1: dollar cabs each day to get up to do our 406 00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: podcast in Manhattan, So that kind of had West and 407 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:01,679 Speaker 1: I in a mood in West West's coat never got 408 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 1: chipped to him. But anyways, like I was thinking about 409 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 1: Phoenix in general, like since we were last there, they've 410 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,919 Speaker 1: completely read on the downtown in for instance, where a 411 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 1: lot of people are staying there is there's a ton 412 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 1: of stuff going on, and I think, like I have 413 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 1: bad memories of Phoenix from here. That's trying to be that. 414 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 1: But this was the same Super Bowl Dan where you 415 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,719 Speaker 1: and I think had one of the greatest times with 416 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,200 Speaker 1: your dad and your brother at the Up for Anything 417 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 1: bud Light party. We were we were painting a unicorn 418 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 1: with like different colored paints and all the beer was free. 419 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 1: It was like this was a great Super Bowl city 420 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: the world, Like we were West and I would like 421 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: have beers with Greg go Sell in the hotel lobby 422 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 1: each night, Like I just remember, And when I really 423 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 1: think about it, Phoenix was a better experience than I recall. 424 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 1: And it's just like if you're gonna go in and 425 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: if you get sent to work on a business vacation, 426 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: you go watch the greatest sporting event. Yeah, chill on 427 00:21:52,480 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 1: your like paraphrasing Dwayne Johnson, Uh know your role and 428 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 1: shut your mouth. Yeah, you don't want to be called 429 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 1: that by you know, Travis Kelsey this Sunday Phoenix. Yeah, 430 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 1: well I'm not even saying go in the other direction either. 431 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,400 Speaker 1: Just give it a chance. And it's had incredible luck, 432 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 1: at least with the stadium. It had the Giants uh 433 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: win in OH seven catch and then it had the 434 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: Patriots went over the Seahawks last time, which the greatest 435 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 1: because that came off of deflate Gate and stuff. And 436 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:28,879 Speaker 1: I'll never forget Greg and I were staying nextra but 437 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,880 Speaker 1: when they showed and they were so dramatically done, Bill 438 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 1: Belichick coming out of the tunnel from total darkness, into 439 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:36,919 Speaker 1: the light of the stadium with the hood over, and 440 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 1: he did that for effect. The place was going absolutely nuts, 441 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,679 Speaker 1: destroying and booing him. But then even though because the 442 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: Seahawks fans had drowned out the Patriots and the general 443 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,919 Speaker 1: fans were booing Beljick, then the figure of Tom Brady 444 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: appeared and it's like, we, even though Brady's looks heard 445 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 1: of this, we can't really boo them the same way 446 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: we do Belichick, and the crowd went and completely the 447 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 1: other direction. And I've never really been in a stadium 448 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,400 Speaker 1: that felt as loud as those couple of moments before 449 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,480 Speaker 1: that game. Very cool, actually, that is kind of atmosphere 450 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: that that UM. That felt like a bit of a 451 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,880 Speaker 1: turning point where you're at the super Bowl and it 452 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 1: went from being because we've been now to ten or 453 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 1: whatever more. Um, that crowd was great. It was a 454 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,119 Speaker 1: really loud, active crowd. And I feel like every super 455 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 1: Bowl feels like it's a great scene with the fans 456 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 1: now where it doesn't feel like you're at a corporate event. 457 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: I think of Eagles. Yeah, it's gonna be great. Um. 458 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:31,439 Speaker 1: And by the way, when we get to Super Bowl eight, 459 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,120 Speaker 1: just I'm trying to get ahead of this for our league. Again, 460 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 1: these suggestions, they seem to just go into the ether. 461 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: But it's gonna be l x x x v I 462 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 1: I I fifty plus ten plus ten plus ten plus 463 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 1: five plus one plus one plus one. I mean, you 464 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: gotta get you gotta bite the bowl at some point. 465 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 1: We can't get that. You put them in front when 466 00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 1: you're going, but you where it's account to count backwards 467 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:04,199 Speaker 1: to make it simpler, which is even more confusing. Actually, 468 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:10,439 Speaker 1: but backwards it would be l x x x. That 469 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 1: is what it would be, um graver. It wouldn't go 470 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 1: backwards there. Sometimes it does, I think, and sometimes it doesn't. 471 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:20,239 Speaker 1: It would be if you're subtracting its six and up 472 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 1: towards the next whole number, you go backwards. Did they 473 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,400 Speaker 1: teach us in North Texas? Absolutely not. We didn't learn 474 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 1: Roman numerals. We learned Texas numerals. They did in the 475 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 1: cold town, all right, And I was correct on this 476 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:33,199 Speaker 1: is another one. We're like Romes, like we know we're 477 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: not going to be around for long because our numeracle 478 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,640 Speaker 1: system literally makes no difference or or makes no sense. 479 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 1: If you got to pass a certain number. Let's take 480 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:44,679 Speaker 1: a break and do some news. All right, welcome back, 481 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 1: Let's do some news.

She was also that 496 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 1: Field had a nice career, still does obviously, because eighty 497 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 1: for Brady made twelve and a half million at the 498 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 1: box office, which exceeded estimates not by a ton um, 499 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 1: but exceeded our estimates. Uh, let's see, let's go through it. 500 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 1: Grave digger. You you had it as a Titanic, not 501 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:30,119 Speaker 1: the film Titanic. Um bomb at four point six million? Um, 502 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 1: Greg even less bullish in retrospect, this is surprising to me. 503 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: Three million, but you were going I thought would be 504 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 1: lower than all you and I stupidly played it before 505 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 1: Graver even went and didn't make any sense. Um I 506 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 1: I said nine, and I was like that was like, 507 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 1: I'll be a little surprised if it gets there. Uh, 508 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 1: but I knew Mark had eleven point eight, which I 509 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 1: didn't think it had it in it, And they made 510 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 1: twelve and a half million, besting the you know that 511 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 1: goofy movie Avatar with all this week? Yeah this week? Yeah, 512 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 1: I mean it was knocked Avatar that in another movie 513 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 1: knocked Avatar to the number one spot after you know, 514 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: a couple of months. Yeah, I mean, I like Vitory 515 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 1: if people would go back to listen to the other episode. 516 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,400 Speaker 1: I came out of that guessing game thinking like, why 517 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 1: probably getting housed here because, like I tried, Greg, Greg 518 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 1: has long played this Hollywood box office thing. We used 519 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,639 Speaker 1: to do this in our cubicles, and I was like, Greg, 520 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:31,920 Speaker 1: seems super plugged in listen he went with three million. 521 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,879 Speaker 1: I thought, well, I've overshot this, but we'll see what happens. 522 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: But then you just you never know, like when you 523 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 1: have a star producer attached to this and he timely, 524 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: in a timely fashion announces his retirement, um in the 525 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 1: days and hours leading up to it, and it just 526 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 1: brought everyone's mind back to Tom Brady. Then this product, 527 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: this pictures tied to him, you know. And you know what, 528 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 1: also it was written by the people who did Book Smart, 529 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:56,959 Speaker 1: which was a great movie, started hired the week this 530 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 1: movie came out. Yeah, retired to base. They're the premier 531 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:06,680 Speaker 1: the day before the middle. It's fine, it's fine. He 532 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:08,879 Speaker 1: could do whatever he wants. He's Tom Brady. But like 533 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 1: sitting on the beach getting choked up announcing his retirement 534 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 1: five days before the movie that he has a financial 535 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,879 Speaker 1: stake and came out. Maybe it wasn't his organic as 536 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,640 Speaker 1: perhaps I think a lot of people have questioned the time, 537 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,119 Speaker 1: maybe questioned like how dare you it's his choice? Maybe 538 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:28,159 Speaker 1: still very much um you know about the brand. The 539 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 1: buzz is solid though, like Rachel really liked it. If 540 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 1: you hadn't listened to rate Rachel's party. You should. But 541 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 1: she really liked it, and yeah there was. There's been 542 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: good feedback. The reviews are actually like way funnier than 543 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 1: uh then you would expect funnier. I haven't seen a 544 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 1: lot of place since I'm saying he's like funnier, like 545 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: than than um. You know, I had any right to 546 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 1: be like just the trailer bits a bit. But what 547 00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: I didn't really take anto account with my thing was 548 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 1: the unique strategy Paramount Pictures had. By the way, one 549 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 1: of the top i've action comedy debuts in a while. 550 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,959 Speaker 1: It's been a bad market. Uh. Many action comedy has 551 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 1: been hurting for about fifteen years. Many films try to 552 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 1: go through the higher ticket prices, do some three D, 553 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 1: do some surgeon pricing. They went the other way. They 554 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 1: did discount pricing for Mate's for seniors, half the ticket 555 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 1: buyers over the age of fifty. On Sunday, without even 556 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 1: getting a pop from me, my mom texted me and said, 557 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 1: guess where I'm going e D for Brady with a friend. 558 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 1: I love it, And she said she heard our little 559 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 1: conversation on the podcast. Is your mom gonna want to 560 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 1: go the eleven PM show? You know, She's gonna go 561 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 1: with a friend probably around two is a win for 562 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 1: the Hollywood fat cats. Who who you would think our connection, 563 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 1: our level of connection to NFL and the culture would 564 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 1: have led us to nail this. But other than Mark, 565 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 1: nobody really saw this coming. It's it's a credit to you, Mark. 566 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,479 Speaker 1: I think you're pumping me up and I'll just you 567 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 1: could be a it could be the Mark coming. I 568 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 1: got to admit the whole um helmet catch versus um 569 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: what's the Eagles play called? Now, I forget the Philly Special. 570 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 1: I gotta say, as time is going on and more 571 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 1: things keep happening Philly Special, I'm starting to one, at 572 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 1: least in terms of my opinion, I might be moved 573 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 1: to to believe that Mark should win these sandwiches. Like 574 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, it's it's been coming. This is a 575 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 1: massive segment on this show right now. Yeah, it's And 576 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 1: I think what you need like the Helmeley catch, just 577 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 1: I think that's the word Philly Special is actually just 578 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 1: still so hard in the culture that catch just had 579 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 1: its fifteenth anniversary. Yeah, I would like to see where 580 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 1: the Philly Special is in the in the national consciousness 581 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 1: in fifteen after fifteen feels like it's only been growing. 582 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 1: That's where I had to get mark. This is your 583 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 1: you know, gradual decline Part two D. I don't think 584 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,720 Speaker 1: so I will. This is a hill that I will 585 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,239 Speaker 1: literally die on like I would climb the hill. I 586 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 1: know you'll in but in the middle of the night 587 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 1: you'll wake up realizing it's not only that I am 588 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: wrong on that, it's that everyone realizes I'm wrong. If 589 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: you understand pro football, you understand now because I'm an 590 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 1: old head and we have a whole new like culture 591 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: of people that don't even know what Super Bowl forty 592 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 1: two was. They don't even know about Randy Moss, they 593 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 1: don't know about eighteen and oh and yes, that hurts 594 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 1: it right now because Philly Special was much more recent. 595 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 1: What's gonna happen is it's gonna become just a total 596 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 1: Philly regional thing in about five years. And it was 597 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 1: just a silly trick play at the end of the 598 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: first half. Um and it was cute, It was cute, 599 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 1: but the helmet catch for people who actually know pro 600 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 1: football understand that was one of the seismic moments in 601 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 1: the history of the sport. I have one idea for 602 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 1: how it could become literally eternal um. And I'll just 603 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 1: say it quickly, whether it's the Eagles that do this 604 00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 1: come Sunday, but even better if the Chiefs. Let's say 605 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 1: it's overtime and the Chief's mind down to the Eagles 606 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: four yard line with eight seconds to go, and you know, listen, 607 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 1: we're gonna are we gonna go field goal for field 608 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 1: goal and they say, forget that we're running. We're gonna 609 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 1: literally call it the Philly Special and beat the Eagles 610 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 1: with the Philly Special years later. That that's part of 611 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 1: the mark. That's part of the issue with me, is 612 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 1: like anytime someone runs a play anywhere similar, even if 613 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 1: it's not the Philly Special in terms of that's how 614 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: they use it. They're just like, here comes another Philly Special. 615 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 1: So it's it's it's in uh, it's in the mix. 616 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 1: But here's the other thing. You can't run the helmet 617 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 1: catch now, right, that was a once in a lifetime 618 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 1: play that if you were a fan of football and 619 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 1: you understand the history of the game, there was so 620 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 1: much on the line and at stake when that play happened. 621 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 1: To me, it is the most important play in the 622 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 1: history of that. It's it's so there's clearly different schools 623 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 1: of thoughts. But let's say it's like saying, oh, because um, 624 00:32:57,080 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 1: this guy invented a car, that the invention of the 625 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 1: cars diminished because other people invented better cars this time 626 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 1: went on or their own variations of cars, Like cars 627 00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 1: don't matter because it's been recreated and redone because they're 628 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 1: so eternally essential, purely special, is essential and needed by 629 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 1: human being. About this, the helmet catch is a flying car, 630 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 1: like there's never been one before, there hasn't been one since. No, 631 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 1: I don't so you could just update the model of 632 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 1: your car and say that makes the Initially, I think 633 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: that that's not where we're going with the car argument. 634 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 1: It's a flying car moon shot of the helmet catch. 635 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 1: It's also like crash into the ground. To recap for 636 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 1: the significant portion of our audience who may have no 637 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 1: idea what we're talking about. Because this was a sandwich 638 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 1: bet or prop from five years ago. You said six 639 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 1: six is still so recent that factors in that that 640 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 1: a play in that game would end up overwhelming the 641 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 1: helmet catches. Like the most famous nicknamed play in the 642 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 1: history of the Super Bowl. I mean talk about getting 643 00:33:57,920 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 1: if you if you don't want to accept it, Dan, 644 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 1: I'm fine with that, but it's like it's getting pretty 645 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 1: close to what happened. This is why, and I'm willing 646 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 1: to be the villain on this, but this is the 647 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 1: old horses, shoes and hand garnades thing, Like you absolutely 648 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 1: almost nailed it, because it is unquestionably one of the 649 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 1: more famous plays in Super Bowl history. So for you 650 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:20,120 Speaker 1: to predict that before the game was excellent. But just 651 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:22,800 Speaker 1: because it was it is one of the most famous 652 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,880 Speaker 1: players ever, doesn't mean it gets to be the most 653 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: famous just because it was so close to being And 654 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 1: none of these are to ever overcome. The NFL Network 655 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:35,800 Speaker 1: NFL Films releasing the top ten plays in NFL history, 656 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 1: and I think Philly Special was like four and helmet 657 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 1: Catch was one, and they released like days ago calling 658 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: it the biggest play in the Super Bowl the field. 659 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 1: So they're all over the map too with what they're doing. 660 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:49,839 Speaker 1: But you I like to see that. I don't like 661 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 1: that either, because there's so much game after that. The 662 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,360 Speaker 1: Patriots had the lead after I think the bigger argument 663 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:56,720 Speaker 1: against it is that it happened to close the first 664 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 1: half I hear that, but I simply will not move 665 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:09,320 Speaker 1: off point for Brady. And let's get to it quickly. 666 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,400 Speaker 1: Let's just roll through the news. Okay, we got we 667 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:16,759 Speaker 1: got a big week coming up, Super Bowl, like we 668 00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 1: gotta watch it. Yeah, we gotta watch our coach. Um, 669 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,320 Speaker 1: all right, Davante Adams, he was the Pro Bowl. Happened 670 00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 1: this weekend. That's the thing, that's a reimagined thing anyway, Uh, 671 00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 1: Davante Adams was there and Aaron Rodgers the big name 672 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:36,640 Speaker 1: out there at quarterback. UH. Adams built his incredible career 673 00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:38,799 Speaker 1: in Green Bay with Rogers before having a big year 674 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:41,280 Speaker 1: in his first year with the Raiders. That was supposed 675 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:43,400 Speaker 1: to be a long term marriage between Davante Adams and 676 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 1: Derek Carr. Derek car obviously on the way out with 677 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 1: the Raiders. Could Aaron Rodgers end up following Davante Adams 678 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:55,440 Speaker 1: Uh to the desert and our own Cameron Wolf, our 679 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 1: buddy uh NFL Networks on Cameron Wolf talked to Davante 680 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 1: Adams out um that very thing and help to notice 681 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 1: you have some fun on social media talking about Aaron 682 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 1: Rodgers can move and say your neighborhood. Have you started 683 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 1: recruiting Aaron Rodgers to be the new Raiders, Uh quarterback? Uh? 684 00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:16,880 Speaker 1: Why why wouldn't would anybody? That's my guy obviously, and 685 00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 1: wish we're thinking about. We'll see what happens. What's your 686 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 1: best recruiting pitch? Uh that I'm here like that, um 687 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,799 Speaker 1: by the way, much like the Hill for you, Mark 688 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:32,280 Speaker 1: is getting the um Philly Special to be the biggest 689 00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,600 Speaker 1: Super Bowl play ever. You know that I said to 690 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,440 Speaker 1: two thousand is gonna be a big year for winning 691 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 1: back in the in the last year. I think that's 692 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,279 Speaker 1: that it was building towards this year. All right, well, 693 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:45,320 Speaker 1: I think you did you catch that from Adam? You 694 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 1: can know you could point to that as winning, could 695 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:49,960 Speaker 1: point to that, like the way he hit uh was 696 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:53,719 Speaker 1: very sheen. You could point to that. That's as far 697 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 1: as I'll go. You also like retweeted this guy who 698 00:36:57,640 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 1: was verified and it wasn't like verified Blue, But I'm 699 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 1: not sure why he was verified. He's not a football 700 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 1: reporter who was essentially saying, like Aaron Rodgers to Green 701 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 1: Bay has happened, I mean, to Las Vegas is happening, 702 00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 1: and then I'm trying to find Uh, he's not a 703 00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:15,839 Speaker 1: reporter but he's verified he's not a football reporter, and 704 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 1: Adams retweeted it and then people went crazy with that, 705 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:20,799 Speaker 1: and I kind of wanted to throw this in just 706 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:24,799 Speaker 1: because there was a pretty significant report from ESPN that 707 00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 1: we didn't talk about here, which just said that at 708 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 1: this point, the Packers are essentially leaning towards moving on 709 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:34,120 Speaker 1: for Aaron Rodgers, and it's like, that's significant. I don't 710 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,440 Speaker 1: know if that means they are moving on, but the 711 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:41,360 Speaker 1: fact that someone, okay, the lead reporter at ESPN, Adam Schefter, 712 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:45,760 Speaker 1: putting that out there is noteworthy. It makes me think, Okay, 713 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 1: this maybe really is happening. I think it's very possible too. 714 00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 1: I could just sort of if I'm if I'm Matt Lafleur. 715 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:54,799 Speaker 1: I don't want this to happen because I don't want 716 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,440 Speaker 1: to suddenly have to deal with the fact that potentially 717 00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:59,759 Speaker 1: Jordan's love, who looked pretty good when he played here 718 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:02,279 Speaker 1: in the air this season, isn't that guy. You're left 719 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 1: in a total wilderness and Abyss at quarterback, Um you 720 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:07,839 Speaker 1: can get a lot for but you're in rebuild note 721 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 1: at that point, but it's it's feasible. I guess I 722 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 1: just don't see. I have questions around Aaron Rodgers and 723 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:18,400 Speaker 1: specifically Josh McDaniels working together in a Josh McDaniels system. 724 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:21,640 Speaker 1: Just the idea of Josh McDaniels nearon Rodgers. I've heard 725 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:24,560 Speaker 1: little things here and there that like, temperamentally that's just 726 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,279 Speaker 1: not a match. And and and it does matter Aaron 727 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:29,839 Speaker 1: Rodgers having at this point go learn and learn an 728 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 1: entirely new offense, versus say like the Haniel Hackett New York, 729 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 1: where it's like, at least you know the playbook going in. 730 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 1: There are some reasons to go do it. The owner 731 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 1: really wants it. You don't love the owner's industry. If 732 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:41,839 Speaker 1: you're Aaron Rodgers, you can get over that. But like 733 00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:45,880 Speaker 1: Nathaniel Hackett offers you your playbook, and is it easy 734 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:49,719 Speaker 1: just to start completely over in Las Vegas with Josh McDaniels, 735 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,360 Speaker 1: who is about as stubborn as they come when it 736 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 1: comes to the offense he runs. Do anybody have any 737 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:56,520 Speaker 1: takes on the Pro Bowl? Uh? The NFC beat the 738 00:38:56,560 --> 00:39:00,799 Speaker 1: Act thirty three. There were a skills comp Titian three 739 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:04,320 Speaker 1: flag football games. Tyler Huntley doubled the amount of touchdown 740 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:07,600 Speaker 1: passes through in the regular season with four scores in 741 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:12,840 Speaker 1: one of the games. I guess or I had a couple, so, uh, 742 00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 1: I see this game and these events through my children. 743 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 1: They were super into it. They were into the skills competition, 744 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:21,799 Speaker 1: which still had like on Thursday night they did, so 745 00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,399 Speaker 1: they basically broken into two parts. They did a couple 746 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,720 Speaker 1: of skills stuff like target practice and like water literally 747 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:31,520 Speaker 1: water biling throwing and like longest drive and stuff on 748 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:34,120 Speaker 1: Thursday night and like still a couple of million people 749 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:36,440 Speaker 1: watched that, and then they did the flag football games 750 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 1: and some kick you know, kicker tic tacto stuff. I 751 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:41,400 Speaker 1: don't know. My kids were super into it. The players 752 00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:44,240 Speaker 1: seemed to like it, and I suspect people still watched 753 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,719 Speaker 1: that so they're they're never going back. It didn't the 754 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,880 Speaker 1: flag football did not seem like overly competitive, and I 755 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,000 Speaker 1: was a little surprised they have a full stadium there 756 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:54,919 Speaker 1: of people watching. I don't know how much they're they're 757 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: paying to go into that stadium, but uh, the kids 758 00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:00,080 Speaker 1: could not have been more into the whole thing. I 759 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:01,680 Speaker 1: think it's an event for how much do you think 760 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:05,319 Speaker 1: the NFC players made for winning the game each Do 761 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 1: you know the answer, I do sixty thousand, thirty five thousand. 762 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 1: I'd say, Mark, you're locked in right now eighty four grand, 763 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 1: which probably covers their room service. NFL players are doing 764 00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:24,000 Speaker 1: nothing for thirty five dollars. No not Uh, let's see. Uh. 765 00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:27,760 Speaker 1: The Arizona Cardinals still have not hired a head coach, 766 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:31,439 Speaker 1: but according to Bert Breer of s I, the team 767 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,839 Speaker 1: has narrowed the field to three finalists. They would be 768 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 1: Steelers senior defensive assistant and linebackers coach and former Dolphins 769 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:43,640 Speaker 1: head coach Brian Flores, Captain Low and A Rumo. The 770 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 1: Bengals do you See? And Giants offensive coordinator Mike Kafgar 771 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 1: are the remaining candidates. In the old Mark the Seesaw 772 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:57,440 Speaker 1: of how you handle head coach hirings usually do the 773 00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:00,759 Speaker 1: laid back offensive innovator, and then that doesn't work, you 774 00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 1: go with the hard nosed defensive guy. This all feels 775 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:06,359 Speaker 1: like it should be Brian Flores' job. We will see 776 00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,279 Speaker 1: if it is, I think, and a Rumo is a 777 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:10,759 Speaker 1: real chance. Cough good. I mean, I just feel like 778 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:12,920 Speaker 1: I know less about what Mike cop has done just 779 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:16,759 Speaker 1: through him, versus being like Brian Dables guy. This year. 780 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:18,799 Speaker 1: But like I and read the guy last year, that's 781 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:21,880 Speaker 1: a nice I guess it's like, do is this an 782 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 1: organization that says everything is based around Kyler Murray and 783 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,640 Speaker 1: growing him? Uh? No, not if you hire a defensive guy, 784 00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:29,320 Speaker 1: because I think the thing that worries me about a 785 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 1: little bit is like they're a bounce back team candidate 786 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:35,880 Speaker 1: just by being maybe less drama magnity next season. And 787 00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 1: if the offense thrives and Kyler Murray thrives, then that coach, 788 00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:42,080 Speaker 1: that offensive coordinator goes somewhere else as a head coach 789 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:44,440 Speaker 1: and you're starting over with Kyler Murray. Again. They're not 790 00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:48,839 Speaker 1: in a hurry in a RUMO is interviewing Friday. So 791 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,600 Speaker 1: that makes me think they might be waiting for an 792 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:53,920 Speaker 1: assistant from one of the teams. I'm not the only 793 00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:56,399 Speaker 1: one that speculated that that they might be waiting because 794 00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,319 Speaker 1: they can't talk to the Eagles in chiefs guys. But 795 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,320 Speaker 1: I like, I like three they picked. We got some 796 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:06,120 Speaker 1: breaking news connected to the Cardinals, so A. J. Green 797 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:11,240 Speaker 1: is retiring. Uh finished up his career with the Cardinals. 798 00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:13,239 Speaker 1: I would have liked to see him tack on a 799 00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 1: few more memorable moments there because I think he has 800 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,320 Speaker 1: a legitimate Hall of Fame case. People don't think of 801 00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,120 Speaker 1: him that way, but if you look at the all pros, 802 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:22,640 Speaker 1: you look at the numbers, he certainly is better than 803 00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:24,520 Speaker 1: some Hall of Fame than wide receivers in the Hall 804 00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 1: of Fame. That's for another time. He was a really 805 00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 1: great receiver for a long time and uh made Andy 806 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 1: Dalton I think a lot of money. Yeah, Green was 807 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:35,880 Speaker 1: definitely in the Hall of Fame trajectory, and then he 808 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,880 Speaker 1: just totally kind of fell off a cliff really after 809 00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:42,240 Speaker 1: he suffered the ankle injury and missed the two thousand 810 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:45,120 Speaker 1: nineteen season. He was banged up the year before in 811 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:49,160 Speaker 1: and after that um he had one year more year 812 00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:52,839 Speaker 1: in Cincinnati where he appeared disinterested at times, two years 813 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:55,799 Speaker 1: in Arizona that were utterly forgettable. So yeah, I think 814 00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:57,720 Speaker 1: he'll fall short of the Hall of Fame for that reason. 815 00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 1: But when he was in his heyday and his to these, 816 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:02,759 Speaker 1: he was absolutely like a top five guy. I thought 817 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:06,400 Speaker 1: of that position, thinking these wide receivers, they're compiled stats. 818 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:10,160 Speaker 1: You've gotta hit them like with an inflation type scale, 819 00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:13,160 Speaker 1: the way you do with movie tickets. Because like him 820 00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:16,160 Speaker 1: getting the same amount of yardage as someone way back 821 00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:19,239 Speaker 1: when is not the same thing. Can you see four 822 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 1: seasons where he's done very little? But then you like 823 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:23,920 Speaker 1: look at the players that got in and it's like, okay, 824 00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:26,000 Speaker 1: Isaac Bruce got in. I mean, at no point in 825 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:28,799 Speaker 1: Isaac Bruce's career was he as good as AJ Green 826 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 1: was when AJ Green was at his best. And no 827 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:32,680 Speaker 1: point in Hines Awards careers, which is that, like hinds Ward, 828 00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:34,759 Speaker 1: was he that good. So it's like, okay, I know, 829 00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:37,200 Speaker 1: seven straight Pro Bowls essentially to start his career and 830 00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:40,600 Speaker 1: then nothing else. It's like a nice peek. Let's pause 831 00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:45,360 Speaker 1: right here, take a break, we'll be right back. Alright, 832 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:49,360 Speaker 1: we're back. The Cowboys have filled their offensive coordinator post 833 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:53,440 Speaker 1: after Kellen mare Moore was let go and quickly moved 834 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:56,680 Speaker 1: on to the Chargers. It is Brian Schottenheimer, the well 835 00:43:56,800 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 1: traveled Brian Schottenheimer UM who was promote UH to offensive 836 00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:05,320 Speaker 1: coordinator UM. He was signed to the team last March 837 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 1: as an offensive consultant UH and now he gets an 838 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 1: in house promotion. He will not be calling plays, as 839 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 1: we understand it. The ideas that will be Mike McCarthy 840 00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:20,640 Speaker 1: underdog calling plays. But Shoddy is once again in an 841 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:24,440 Speaker 1: o C chair man. I mean they're just setting themselves 842 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 1: up to be a punch line a little bit. I 843 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:29,919 Speaker 1: mean it's not it's not as fall. I forget who 844 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:32,279 Speaker 1: sends it out every time? Is it? Is it Ben 845 00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:36,919 Speaker 1: slack Um? Like of Schottenheimer's resume, and like every spot 846 00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:42,480 Speaker 1: he's been at essentially like did Borley not what you want? Um? 847 00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 1: And then did better like the second he left, including Jacksonville. 848 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:47,799 Speaker 1: You know he was running that offense under urban Meyer. 849 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 1: It just tells me, Mike McCarthy, you're the play caller. 850 00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 1: Kellen Moore. There was there were reports they were sparring 851 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:55,960 Speaker 1: at the end a little bit, and Kellen Moore was 852 00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:58,360 Speaker 1: calling plays. You've just gotten someone that I think, will 853 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:00,680 Speaker 1: you know, not Bristole it the idea that they have 854 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 1: less power Dad, He's in charge. Absolutely, they're gonna make 855 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:06,719 Speaker 1: it happen or he's gonna do it. He's gonna go 856 00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:09,560 Speaker 1: down doing it his way, and which is the way 857 00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:10,759 Speaker 1: to do it. I think if you want to look 858 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:14,760 Speaker 1: at it pessimistically, if the Cowboys are three and seven 859 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:20,560 Speaker 1: in November and Mike McCarthy gets canned, you have Dan 860 00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:23,120 Speaker 1: Quinn as your new interim coach, and Brian Schottenheimer call 861 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,239 Speaker 1: and plays for you, so they you know, does that 862 00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:27,279 Speaker 1: get you excited? I don't know, does anything get you 863 00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:29,120 Speaker 1: decided about the Cowboys. I think that we're at that 864 00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 1: point of the year after another sad January exit where 865 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:34,399 Speaker 1: you're just kind of like a little bit like, oh 866 00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:39,719 Speaker 1: my god. Another receiver would maybe a Marii Cooper. The 867 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:44,280 Speaker 1: Panthers hired their d C Gero ever O the coach 868 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:48,759 Speaker 1: um uh. He was in Denver and he had head 869 00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:53,080 Speaker 1: head coaching interviews and he lands on his feet with 870 00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:56,920 Speaker 1: the Panthers. Feels like a good hire Greggy. I like 871 00:45:57,040 --> 00:46:01,080 Speaker 1: it for the Panthers, especially when they like whenever a 872 00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:04,200 Speaker 1: team gets the guy that everyone wanted, it's just like, 873 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:06,680 Speaker 1: I don't know if they paid him more. Maybe maybe 874 00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 1: that's David Tepper's money. Maybe he just likes the idea 875 00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:12,839 Speaker 1: of working with Frank Greig. Because he had a lot 876 00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:15,120 Speaker 1: of head coaching interviews. I would say he was probably 877 00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:17,759 Speaker 1: the top defensive coordinator candidate for a number of teams. 878 00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:20,960 Speaker 1: Minnesota really wanted him, Denver really pushed to not let 879 00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:23,480 Speaker 1: him out of his contract, and I think he stood 880 00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:26,040 Speaker 1: his ground and said he just didn't want to be there. 881 00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:29,080 Speaker 1: And uh, Frank Greik, that's that's I like that combo, 882 00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:30,399 Speaker 1: Frank Greig. And I mean it could be a head 883 00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:31,880 Speaker 1: coach year from now, so it could be a one 884 00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:33,880 Speaker 1: year thing. But they've got there's a bunch of players 885 00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:40,480 Speaker 1: on Carolina's defense. If they get a quarterback that people 886 00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 1: you can get excited about, whether it's through the draft 887 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:48,920 Speaker 1: or get a nice veteran. Um, they will be talked 888 00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 1: about as a division because look what's happened to the Bucks. 889 00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:55,799 Speaker 1: It's like, whoever gets Derek Carr in that division? I 890 00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:57,719 Speaker 1: just feel like that's probably the division he goes to 891 00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:01,480 Speaker 1: will probably be the favorite. That's coaching of um. With 892 00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:03,279 Speaker 1: all due respect to Steve Wilkes, who did a nice 893 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:04,800 Speaker 1: job when he was there. But I think you you 894 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:07,840 Speaker 1: get excited about this new staff, get a better quarterback 895 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:11,560 Speaker 1: in there, you have the defensive pieces, Um, they have 896 00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 1: playmakers on offense. Yes, they could absolutely take that division. Um. 897 00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:20,319 Speaker 1: Hey remember we had Bridget on the show a couple 898 00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:24,120 Speaker 1: of weeks ago, and you know Bridget, she is a 899 00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:28,080 Speaker 1: polarizing figure in this room anyway, very popular with the 900 00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:32,160 Speaker 1: audience Internationally, she's polarizing too. Well. I just want to 901 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 1: point something out that Um. Sometimes it's it comes back 902 00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:38,920 Speaker 1: on me. It's like, why is Bridget only agree with 903 00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:43,319 Speaker 1: her her maker's predictions about the league, the maker being 904 00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:48,000 Speaker 1: me Um. But then something happens. What happened late last week, 905 00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:52,319 Speaker 1: The one prediction of the old zeuster throughout there was 906 00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:56,719 Speaker 1: that Tony Romo, who's in a slump, if you want 907 00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:59,880 Speaker 1: to call that, as a color man for CBS to 908 00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:03,560 Speaker 1: spite that huge contract he signed, his struggles are gonna 909 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:07,360 Speaker 1: lead to CBS sitting him down. And I believe I 910 00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:09,640 Speaker 1: called it a come to Jesus conversation about what he 911 00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:12,640 Speaker 1: needs to do to get better. And sure enough, our 912 00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:16,360 Speaker 1: great friend Andrew Marshaunt of the New York Post headline, 913 00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:20,920 Speaker 1: CBS execs tried intervention to address Tony Romo romo slippage 914 00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:25,200 Speaker 1: in booth and they will attempt to do so again 915 00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:29,360 Speaker 1: this offseason. So the intervention was even before this season. 916 00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:31,600 Speaker 1: It was before it and they're gonna do it again 917 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:35,960 Speaker 1: this offseason. So this was a thing we plugged her in. 918 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:39,680 Speaker 1: I think we decided this is dangerous. But Bridget, thank 919 00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 1: you well, thank you Bridget. Um Uh Romo. Indeed, according 920 00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 1: to Marcian, who has just plugged in as anybody in 921 00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:52,840 Speaker 1: sports media, UH is facing some pushback internally with CBS 922 00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:54,360 Speaker 1: that wanted him to kind of get back to what 923 00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:58,080 Speaker 1: made him a sensation beginning in two thousand seventeen and 924 00:48:58,160 --> 00:49:01,240 Speaker 1: led to the ten year, eight million dollar Deally signed 925 00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:05,319 Speaker 1: a couple of years later. I learned more about this 926 00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:07,920 Speaker 1: Romo thing through this martiawn article where he linked to 927 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:12,200 Speaker 1: other stories that I didn't even know happen, including uh 928 00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:15,800 Speaker 1: Dick ever saw speaking on a on an HBO show 929 00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:19,120 Speaker 1: how Romo is just lazy, straight up said that Romo 930 00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:21,920 Speaker 1: lost his passion. It's obvious. And I do kind of 931 00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 1: get that feel that it's almost like he gets so 932 00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:26,960 Speaker 1: excited in the games almost to make up for the 933 00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:29,200 Speaker 1: fact that he's not doing like a lot of the homework. 934 00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:30,759 Speaker 1: And you can kind of see maybe he's not as 935 00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:33,440 Speaker 1: some of the squealing and things during the game and 936 00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:37,239 Speaker 1: just the hero worship of certain quarters. And it's also 937 00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:38,920 Speaker 1: just like you can hit a button and do that, 938 00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:41,560 Speaker 1: you don't need to practice to do that. So, Uh, 939 00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:44,839 Speaker 1: good job by Dan, Thank you. I guess good job 940 00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:48,799 Speaker 1: on that one. Master, you nailed it. Thank you. Uh, 941 00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:52,799 Speaker 1: good good job, I guess by Ever calling him out, 942 00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:59,279 Speaker 1: although then I we talked about although this is the 943 00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:02,600 Speaker 1: same guy that hired Tony Dungee and has kept him 944 00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:07,799 Speaker 1: on for a decade. So Andrew Brees I Ever saw 945 00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:12,880 Speaker 1: and has lived ten lives within the media sphere of 946 00:50:13,239 --> 00:50:17,279 Speaker 1: professional sports and beyond. Uh, he's definitely in d G 947 00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:19,759 Speaker 1: A F mode about like what opinions he shares at 948 00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:22,120 Speaker 1: this point, like this, it's similar to what we were saying. 949 00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:24,799 Speaker 1: So I don't like. I think we can return to 950 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:28,560 Speaker 1: my primary objective, planning the revolution. Good luck to you. 951 00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:32,719 Speaker 1: That's a problem. I don't this. This is absurd to me. 952 00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:37,160 Speaker 1: This is absurd because I think, I mean, I'm probably 953 00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:41,560 Speaker 1: one of the lesser world supporters around. I know you 954 00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:44,040 Speaker 1: you love him because of his enthusiasm, and I like 955 00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:46,520 Speaker 1: that marries with your reaction to football. I think in 956 00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:49,080 Speaker 1: sort of the way that you respond to football. But 957 00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:50,800 Speaker 1: for me, the idea of your first you don't have 958 00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:53,000 Speaker 1: an intervention with someone unless they're valuable. They're not sitting 959 00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:57,520 Speaker 1: around huddling two off seasons a row with their ninth booths. Uh, 960 00:50:57,640 --> 00:50:59,960 Speaker 1: color analyst guy, He's just gonna go do what he does, 961 00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:04,759 Speaker 1: like Romo is still better than of the people doing this. Um, 962 00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:09,040 Speaker 1: I can't what. I can't comment on whether he's well. 963 00:51:09,080 --> 00:51:11,200 Speaker 1: I mean we're or of a color analyst. Yeah, I 964 00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:15,640 Speaker 1: wouldn't have. They are invested in him and want him to. 965 00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:19,000 Speaker 1: I mean they also take these guys and I think 966 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:20,799 Speaker 1: he's a victim of his early success. They take these 967 00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:24,279 Speaker 1: guys and they have zero practice and they throw them in. 968 00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:26,240 Speaker 1: And I just want to make sure that some producer, 969 00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:28,600 Speaker 1: because I like, if you really believe in what you're 970 00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:31,759 Speaker 1: doing the last people, you should take notes from our 971 00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:35,960 Speaker 1: executives and producers on how to be yourself on air. 972 00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:37,719 Speaker 1: I think for the most part. And I wonder if 973 00:51:37,760 --> 00:51:39,839 Speaker 1: someone got to Romo and said, like, chill on the 974 00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:41,920 Speaker 1: predictions if they're not getting them all right, or this 975 00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:46,320 Speaker 1: or that. But I mean Romo like is outside of 976 00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:48,160 Speaker 1: Greg Olson. I think he's a Greg Olson thing too. 977 00:51:48,200 --> 00:51:50,400 Speaker 1: If you took Greg Olson away, people would be higher 978 00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:52,640 Speaker 1: on Romo. Like the idea that they're meeting with him, 979 00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:54,560 Speaker 1: that he's lazy and all this stuff. I don't know. Well, 980 00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:57,080 Speaker 1: even this, the stories themselves are enough that he knows 981 00:51:57,120 --> 00:51:58,960 Speaker 1: they're all out there. So next season it's like a 982 00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:01,799 Speaker 1: big you know he knows, he knows. Now, can I 983 00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:04,640 Speaker 1: just I'm gonna write out because you said, I'm looking 984 00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:07,440 Speaker 1: at I got Olson ahead of Romo now and this 985 00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:10,000 Speaker 1: isn't how I felt a couple of year ago, years ago. Collinsworth, 986 00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:11,920 Speaker 1: I have ahead of him, Akeman, I have ahead of him, 987 00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:14,200 Speaker 1: Charles Davis, I have ahead of him. I have Mark 988 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:17,480 Speaker 1: Sanchez now ahead of him. Um, I'm sure I'm missing 989 00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:20,040 Speaker 1: a couple of others that you can tell you, Like, 990 00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:21,480 Speaker 1: I don't have all those people ahead of him, but 991 00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:26,600 Speaker 1: like I Olson, I would if all first. First of all, 992 00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:28,920 Speaker 1: the Olson lost two years from now, lost his role 993 00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:33,120 Speaker 1: to Tom Brady. Like they're making a major mistake. You 994 00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:36,520 Speaker 1: have something that perfect. Tom Brady was on the Column 995 00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:41,279 Speaker 1: Cowherd Show today in Fact, and he revealed that the 996 00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:45,240 Speaker 1: plan now that he has that he's retired from football, 997 00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:47,759 Speaker 1: he's got a hit movie, but he also has this 998 00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:52,000 Speaker 1: massive contract that he signed with Fox to be uh 999 00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:55,600 Speaker 1: in their booth. He said he expects to begin his 1000 00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:59,600 Speaker 1: Fox broadcasting career in the fall of so not this 1001 00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:03,799 Speaker 1: season and next season. Uh, He'll he's calling it a 1002 00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:06,960 Speaker 1: gap year. Um and uh, this is what he had 1003 00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:08,919 Speaker 1: to say. I want to be great at what I do. 1004 00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:11,719 Speaker 1: I was talking even last week with the people at 1005 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:14,600 Speaker 1: Fox Sports and the leadership there. Allowing me to start 1006 00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:18,000 Speaker 1: my opportunity in the fall of is something that's great 1007 00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:21,600 Speaker 1: for me. Um. Now, I know there's some speculation in 1008 00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:25,719 Speaker 1: this room that he'll never take this job. I totally disagree, 1009 00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:29,239 Speaker 1: and hearing this quote from Brady makes me think even more. 1010 00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:31,680 Speaker 1: He's serious about it. He's looking for a new challenge, 1011 00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:33,960 Speaker 1: he wants to be great at it, and I buy 1012 00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:36,239 Speaker 1: it that he's going to put in that work, that 1013 00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:38,719 Speaker 1: legendary work ethic. I don't know if he'll be good 1014 00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:42,640 Speaker 1: when rolls around, but I buy that he doesn't want 1015 00:53:42,640 --> 00:53:44,800 Speaker 1: to die right in it and also supplanted Greg Olsen 1016 00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:50,080 Speaker 1: without any experience at all. I I disagree because, look, 1017 00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:52,359 Speaker 1: I said a few weeks ago, he's never taking that job. 1018 00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:56,920 Speaker 1: The next actual piece of information about this job is 1019 00:53:56,960 --> 00:54:00,439 Speaker 1: he's not taking it for another year. That's not that's 1020 00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:04,480 Speaker 1: your way of processing the job right now. He could 1021 00:54:04,520 --> 00:54:06,759 Speaker 1: do it, but he wants to have time off and 1022 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:08,799 Speaker 1: see how this is all gonna go. And this is 1023 00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:11,080 Speaker 1: just bs that you say in the meantime, and maybe 1024 00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:12,960 Speaker 1: he'll do the job. Maybe he'll do the studio job. 1025 00:54:12,960 --> 00:54:16,719 Speaker 1: Maybe he'll think that's really easy, which it is easier 1026 00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:19,040 Speaker 1: than I think being the game analysts. And that's a 1027 00:54:19,040 --> 00:54:23,280 Speaker 1: way to pay him ten years and three million dollars 1028 00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:26,719 Speaker 1: to be a studio analysts. I think that can all change. Well, 1029 00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:32,719 Speaker 1: they've also got the greeting, the meet and greets, the Murdochs. 1030 00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:34,880 Speaker 1: I think it's it has to be considered TB D 1031 00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:37,360 Speaker 1: on whether he'll not he'll ultimately do this, I believe 1032 00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 1: because I so. I believe that. I believe that he 1033 00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 1: wants to be prepared and not just four five months 1034 00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:45,480 Speaker 1: from now be doing stuff like this necessarily. But I 1035 00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:48,000 Speaker 1: also think everything else I know about Tom Brady, he 1036 00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:50,840 Speaker 1: never he always ran towards every challenge, whether it's what 1037 00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:53,480 Speaker 1: you're down twenty three, whether it's I'm gonna come back 1038 00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:55,600 Speaker 1: or not and play. It's like in Bang this is 1039 00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:57,319 Speaker 1: the thing. When I hear I'm gonna wait a year 1040 00:54:57,360 --> 00:54:59,600 Speaker 1: to do it, I'm not convinced because he's going to 1041 00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:02,279 Speaker 1: spend whole year trying to become the best at it 1042 00:55:02,400 --> 00:55:04,239 Speaker 1: necessarily at all. I think you just dive into it. 1043 00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:08,279 Speaker 1: I think I also think he knows enough to know this. 1044 00:55:08,320 --> 00:55:11,319 Speaker 1: I don't understand what he Here's why because I think 1045 00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:13,799 Speaker 1: he's smart enough to know he doesn't know how he's 1046 00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:17,880 Speaker 1: gonna feel in July or August. He really doesn't know 1047 00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:21,680 Speaker 1: how he's gonna feel in the spring or fall of 1048 00:55:22,760 --> 00:55:25,319 Speaker 1: He knows this is all totally different, and so this 1049 00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:27,840 Speaker 1: is a way for him to buy some time and 1050 00:55:27,920 --> 00:55:30,360 Speaker 1: see how he actually feels. And if he wants to 1051 00:55:30,360 --> 00:55:32,319 Speaker 1: do this counters right now he's not ready to do it. 1052 00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:34,839 Speaker 1: Counter Point, he was so excited about the idea of 1053 00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:38,440 Speaker 1: doing this that he signed the deal years ago. At 1054 00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:40,319 Speaker 1: this point, they came in. They came at him in 1055 00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:43,799 Speaker 1: part because like Aikman's leaving and they wanted to have 1056 00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:46,400 Speaker 1: this big splash, and he said he was retired. You know, 1057 00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:48,520 Speaker 1: it was a whole thing. Nothing wrong with jumping at 1058 00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:50,480 Speaker 1: the deal. But like he's gonna do a sandwich prop 1059 00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:54,440 Speaker 1: on this one that this feels like a absolutely he 1060 00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:56,680 Speaker 1: is calling. I don't know whether he'll be the number 1061 00:55:56,680 --> 00:55:58,799 Speaker 1: one or two team. They might even go as far 1062 00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:02,320 Speaker 1: as installing him at the two, probably at the three spot, 1063 00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:06,520 Speaker 1: but the number two spot. But he's absolutely calling games 1064 00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:10,360 Speaker 1: for Fox in two thousand. It's a long term one. Obviously, 1065 00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:12,960 Speaker 1: I'll take you up on that. How about you a 1066 00:56:12,960 --> 00:56:15,319 Speaker 1: grave digger, I'll take sandwiches anywhere I can get him 1067 00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:18,120 Speaker 1: on this one. No, I agree with you, so I 1068 00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:20,520 Speaker 1: will not take you. I'm sorry. Let's good. Well, no, 1069 00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:23,040 Speaker 1: you agreed with me though, so that's good. They could 1070 00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:25,680 Speaker 1: shove they could try to shove him into uh Olsen 1071 00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:28,799 Speaker 1: three man booth two. I don't love that. Um No, 1072 00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:30,920 Speaker 1: they couldn't do that. That would be unfair at all. 1073 00:56:31,480 --> 00:56:33,960 Speaker 1: It's good. It's also weird to pay him this money 1074 00:56:33,960 --> 00:56:36,799 Speaker 1: and having the number two. That's a weird if that's 1075 00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:39,120 Speaker 1: the I don't know if that's the ultimate plan. I 1076 00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:41,000 Speaker 1: think if you pay him that money, you want him 1077 00:56:41,040 --> 00:56:43,719 Speaker 1: to really good and be their number one guy. But 1078 00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:46,000 Speaker 1: they have this like good problem now that Greg Olsen 1079 00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:49,359 Speaker 1: has really risen up and become you know, we gotta 1080 00:56:49,360 --> 00:56:51,320 Speaker 1: get Marshawn down the podcast. Let's do let's stick a 1081 00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:53,920 Speaker 1: let's stick a pin in this and talk about this 1082 00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:56,400 Speaker 1: post super Bowl. We'll get him in maybe in March 1083 00:56:56,480 --> 00:57:01,160 Speaker 1: or later in the month. Um finally, uh not finally, 1084 00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:04,640 Speaker 1: we got a few more things. Um. Joe Mixon uh 1085 00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:08,680 Speaker 1: was in the news. Uh was some issues involving the law. 1086 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:13,080 Speaker 1: The misdemeter aggravated menacing charge filed against Bengals running back 1087 00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:16,200 Speaker 1: Joe Mixon was officially dismissed on Friday, but the charge 1088 00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:19,160 Speaker 1: could be refiled. A court document filed Friday stated that 1089 00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:22,720 Speaker 1: the charge against Mixing was dismissed at the request of 1090 00:57:22,720 --> 00:57:26,800 Speaker 1: the City prosecutors office. Uh. The dismissal came one day 1091 00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:30,040 Speaker 1: after a complaint was filed that alleged mix and knowingly 1092 00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:33,200 Speaker 1: pointed a firearm at a woman and said. Well, you 1093 00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:35,120 Speaker 1: don't need even to know what he said, but it's 1094 00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:39,000 Speaker 1: not a very good look for Joe Mixon. We'll see, uh, 1095 00:57:39,040 --> 00:57:42,120 Speaker 1: if this goes forward. But Greg, I know you um 1096 00:57:42,320 --> 00:57:44,480 Speaker 1: have thoughts about where Mixing is as a player at 1097 00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:47,400 Speaker 1: this stage and where the Bengals see him in their 1098 00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:51,040 Speaker 1: future or not in the future. Yeah. I think he 1099 00:57:51,160 --> 00:57:55,760 Speaker 1: was a strong candidate to be released before this happened 1100 00:57:56,360 --> 00:57:58,600 Speaker 1: because of his salary, because they need to get the 1101 00:57:58,640 --> 00:58:00,960 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow contract done. We have been rumors are they 1102 00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:04,520 Speaker 1: gonna trade te Higgins? That seems stupid, but either way, Uh, 1103 00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:07,720 Speaker 1: it doesn't seem when you're playing half the snaps of Soma. J. P. 1104 00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:09,680 Speaker 1: Ryan in the biggest game of the year. That's a 1105 00:58:09,680 --> 00:58:12,640 Speaker 1: pretty big sign that Joe Mixon was not the mixing 1106 00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:14,720 Speaker 1: of old and I see his agent and some other 1107 00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:18,400 Speaker 1: supporters in the media say, well, this was quickly dismissed, 1108 00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:22,320 Speaker 1: so no harm, no foul. But it's like the level 1109 00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:25,120 Speaker 1: of whether someone goes to jail or not or had 1110 00:58:25,160 --> 00:58:28,200 Speaker 1: faces official charges is not the same level of consideration 1111 00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:31,240 Speaker 1: your employers might take into account when wanting to like 1112 00:58:31,400 --> 00:58:33,800 Speaker 1: keep you employed at ten million dollars a year. And 1113 00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:35,840 Speaker 1: so I think this probably spells the end of his 1114 00:58:35,920 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 1: time in Cincinnati. Yeah, I mean like it it kind 1115 00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:42,240 Speaker 1: of gets forgotten now. But the Bengals when they took him, 1116 00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:44,600 Speaker 1: when they drafted him, there's a lot of controversy around 1117 00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:46,400 Speaker 1: that they went out and took a chance on him, 1118 00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:48,960 Speaker 1: and it's like, I think it came probably with the 1119 00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:52,120 Speaker 1: concept of like never again, are you gonna be doing 1120 00:58:52,160 --> 00:58:54,200 Speaker 1: stuff downtown or anywhere else, and like we don't know 1121 00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:56,880 Speaker 1: exactly what happened here, but um, you factoring all the 1122 00:58:56,880 --> 00:58:59,080 Speaker 1: other stuff, it could be check your later. They have 1123 00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:01,840 Speaker 1: they have a lot of is the uh decisions? To me, 1124 00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:04,120 Speaker 1: I think Yo Collins might be a cut there. They 1125 00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:07,080 Speaker 1: have a lot of could lose. They're one of the 1126 00:59:07,080 --> 00:59:09,880 Speaker 1: teams to watch this week. So the t Higgins thing, 1127 00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:12,840 Speaker 1: I'm I'm piecing this together because Jamar Chase is going 1128 00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:15,120 Speaker 1: to get a second contract. That's huge, and Higgins has 1129 00:59:15,160 --> 00:59:17,640 Speaker 1: the value and both on the team and outside the 1130 00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:20,440 Speaker 1: team of being potentially at number one in his own right. 1131 00:59:21,160 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 1: You do the old and the Titans will tell you 1132 00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:27,240 Speaker 1: it's it's dangerous business. You trade your stud go maybe 1133 00:59:27,320 --> 00:59:30,000 Speaker 1: draft a guy and get him under team control more friendly. 1134 00:59:30,280 --> 00:59:32,720 Speaker 1: That's dangerous. I would keep those guys together as long. 1135 00:59:33,840 --> 00:59:38,280 Speaker 1: Higgins is not a free agent. He's on contract ahead 1136 00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:40,320 Speaker 1: of it. Just like Yeah, I would be like, let's 1137 00:59:40,400 --> 00:59:44,960 Speaker 1: keep it together while while we can. Let's Yes, that's 1138 00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:47,440 Speaker 1: what I feel about our show as well. Real quick 1139 00:59:48,520 --> 00:59:53,640 Speaker 1: early Super Bowl injury report. Icole Hardman has that pelvis 1140 00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:55,520 Speaker 1: issue with the wide receiver. The Chiefs are banged up 1141 00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:57,360 Speaker 1: at wide receiver ahead of this game. Keep an eye 1142 00:59:57,360 --> 00:59:59,760 Speaker 1: on that anyway. He was moved to I r uh 1143 00:59:59,840 --> 01:00:02,840 Speaker 1: the this morning, so he is done in terms of 1144 01:00:02,880 --> 01:00:04,920 Speaker 1: this game. You won't see him. Juju Smith shoes three. 1145 01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:07,360 Speaker 1: He's got a knee ka Darius Tony has an ankle 1146 01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:11,240 Speaker 1: UH two more wide receivers. Uh for the Chiefs. Those 1147 01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:15,600 Speaker 1: guys are questionable for the game. Lagarius Snead Uh, their 1148 01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:18,600 Speaker 1: cover men, very good, very important guy for them, has 1149 01:00:18,600 --> 01:00:20,920 Speaker 1: a concussion, uh and we'll see if he's going to 1150 01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:24,080 Speaker 1: be available for the game. Also questionable Mark That was 1151 01:00:24,160 --> 01:00:27,400 Speaker 1: kind of an underrated and um Baldi talked about that 1152 01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:30,000 Speaker 1: when we had him on last week. And the Chiefs 1153 01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:31,800 Speaker 1: des are a ton of credit. They were all sorts 1154 01:00:31,840 --> 01:00:34,680 Speaker 1: of banged up in their secondary and handled te Higgins 1155 01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:37,480 Speaker 1: and handled Jamaar Ch'es and didn't let that game spin 1156 01:00:37,520 --> 01:00:41,400 Speaker 1: out of control. So it trends positively that they can 1157 01:00:41,440 --> 01:00:44,080 Speaker 1: handle the Eagles, but still they want sneed back. Yeah. 1158 01:00:44,080 --> 01:00:45,919 Speaker 1: I mean that sort of like showed who they were 1159 01:00:45,960 --> 01:00:47,680 Speaker 1: and how resilient they were, and they came up with 1160 01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:49,960 Speaker 1: different guys, and guys like Isaiah pa Jacob played a 1161 01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:51,720 Speaker 1: huge role in that game and I think well in 1162 01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:53,880 Speaker 1: the super Bowl. But it is one dynamic of this 1163 01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:56,680 Speaker 1: two week break where you kind of forget about this 1164 01:00:56,920 --> 01:00:59,040 Speaker 1: first week, the injury reports and the fact that like 1165 01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:01,520 Speaker 1: Juju Smith Shoe just still is swelling in his knee 1166 01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:05,280 Speaker 1: and going in against this Eagles defense, it's a different situation. 1167 01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:07,960 Speaker 1: I don't love the idea of them having to craft 1168 01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:11,000 Speaker 1: and create with lime two or three key guys potentially 1169 01:01:11,000 --> 01:01:13,800 Speaker 1: not themselves. I think they'll play, but not themselves, right 1170 01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:15,880 Speaker 1: and we we just don't know. They didn't practice at 1171 01:01:15,880 --> 01:01:19,200 Speaker 1: all last week. There was Chiefs practices. Uh, Willie Gay 1172 01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:23,120 Speaker 1: sounds like he will be back, and I think Tony 1173 01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:27,240 Speaker 1: feels like they're more optimistic about him. But it's the 1174 01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:31,320 Speaker 1: Eagles who have no injury worries at all, Like literally 1175 01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:33,720 Speaker 1: their entire team is available for this game. That makes 1176 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:35,920 Speaker 1: such a big difference. Like it's not a coincidence. These 1177 01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:39,240 Speaker 1: two teams were both relatively healthy Eagles very you know, 1178 01:01:39,320 --> 01:01:41,120 Speaker 1: quite healthy during the season. They also had two of 1179 01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:43,520 Speaker 1: the easiest schedules in the entire league. Like, and that's 1180 01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:46,360 Speaker 1: no slight to them, but like these things matter, um 1181 01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:49,160 Speaker 1: and Tony at the time of his trade from the Giants, 1182 01:01:49,920 --> 01:01:52,320 Speaker 1: we and others made a big thing. What a great 1183 01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:55,640 Speaker 1: trade this is for Kansas City, huge upside. The Giants 1184 01:01:55,640 --> 01:01:58,360 Speaker 1: are gonna really regret this potentially. Right now, the Chiefs 1185 01:01:58,360 --> 01:02:00,280 Speaker 1: are feeling a lot of like the Giants, like this 1186 01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:02,960 Speaker 1: guy is really good, he can be a difference maker, 1187 01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:06,920 Speaker 1: but he can't stay on the field, so hopefully we 1188 01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:10,560 Speaker 1: see the best version of Tony makes for a better game. Hey, Greggy, 1189 01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:13,720 Speaker 1: Gina Smith, your boy is a Comeback Player of the 1190 01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:16,200 Speaker 1: Year finalist that we'll find out about that on Thursday 1191 01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:21,680 Speaker 1: the NFL Honors Awards, hosted by Kelly Clarkson. Best Kelly 1192 01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:26,480 Speaker 1: Clarkson's song Mark the one where don't let Me Dancer, 1193 01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:31,000 Speaker 1: Please let Me Dance? What?

That's she's got 1196 01:02:41,480 --> 01:02:45,000 Speaker 1: some bangers, but she perform I don't think so. Yeah, 1197 01:02:45,040 --> 01:02:47,720 Speaker 1: she's she'll probably do some songs. Um a couple. So 1198 01:02:47,760 --> 01:02:51,320 Speaker 1: have you got clarks in there where she sings you 1199 01:02:51,320 --> 01:02:54,840 Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like some comedy comedy singing comedy bits. 1200 01:02:55,360 --> 01:02:58,200 Speaker 1: All right, well you'll be there in your talk Greg, 1201 01:02:58,240 --> 01:03:01,080 Speaker 1: so um, anyway you want to hear from Gino. He 1202 01:03:01,120 --> 01:03:02,400 Speaker 1: was at the Pro Bowl, of course, because he was 1203 01:03:02,440 --> 01:03:05,280 Speaker 1: a Pro Bowl quarterback this year. He lit up that 1204 01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:07,160 Speaker 1: flag football game. That was the only one I got 1205 01:03:07,200 --> 01:03:09,600 Speaker 1: a chance to watch before I headed out to the 1206 01:03:09,680 --> 01:03:14,000 Speaker 1: NASCAR at the Colosseum with my son. I never expected 1207 01:03:14,040 --> 01:03:16,320 Speaker 1: that my eight year old son would be dragging me 1208 01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:20,200 Speaker 1: to NASCAR events where Cypress Hill and Whiz Khalifa both 1209 01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:22,760 Speaker 1: are there as musical entertainment. It was fun though, Let's 1210 01:03:22,760 --> 01:03:28,280 Speaker 1: hear Gino. Wait wait, wait, did Cypress Hill do illusions? No, 1211 01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:31,560 Speaker 1: they just did the insane in the membrane. And what's 1212 01:03:31,600 --> 01:03:33,480 Speaker 1: their other big son? Did they do? Since you've been gone? 1213 01:03:35,200 --> 01:03:38,560 Speaker 1: Would fay to watch? Be real? Dude? All right, let's uh, 1214 01:03:38,760 --> 01:03:41,400 Speaker 1: let's hear Cam Wolfe again. By the way, getting the interview, 1215 01:03:42,160 --> 01:03:44,840 Speaker 1: he's been on absolutely on fire. All right, now, all right, 1216 01:03:44,880 --> 01:03:47,640 Speaker 1: let's hear Gina. You know, all signs are positive and 1217 01:03:47,680 --> 01:03:49,280 Speaker 1: so we just got to continue to work at it 1218 01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:51,320 Speaker 1: and no fun, you know, figure out what we can 1219 01:03:51,360 --> 01:03:53,440 Speaker 1: do to make sure it happens. So if you could 1220 01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:55,560 Speaker 1: put a one detained grade on it, what would you say, 1221 01:03:56,840 --> 01:04:00,320 Speaker 1: We'll be back in Seattle running the back. I'm very confident. 1222 01:04:00,360 --> 01:04:01,720 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna put a number on it, but I'm 1223 01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:03,880 Speaker 1: very confident and you know, I think things will work out. 1224 01:04:04,640 --> 01:04:07,640 Speaker 1: Uh number you know, tenants of journalism don't ask yes 1225 01:04:07,720 --> 01:04:10,280 Speaker 1: or no questions. And when you could really put him 1226 01:04:10,320 --> 01:04:12,520 Speaker 1: on the spot there, give me the one to ten number. Now, Gino, 1227 01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:14,800 Speaker 1: he's been around the block. He was in the New 1228 01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:17,880 Speaker 1: York media, he wasn't gonna give you that number because 1229 01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:20,360 Speaker 1: that would have been the headline across the blogs. Still 1230 01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:22,920 Speaker 1: give you very confident. That's a headline said, very confident 1231 01:04:22,960 --> 01:04:24,520 Speaker 1: that he will be in Seattle. That does seem like 1232 01:04:24,800 --> 01:04:27,080 Speaker 1: where it's going. Greggy. Yeah, this is one where I 1233 01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:30,400 Speaker 1: think you can trust from the player and the team 1234 01:04:30,440 --> 01:04:33,600 Speaker 1: perspective that they're being fourth right. It really feels like 1235 01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:36,720 Speaker 1: that's one spot that we know on some I don't 1236 01:04:36,720 --> 01:04:38,040 Speaker 1: know what the numbers are gonna be, but I think 1237 01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:39,840 Speaker 1: Gino Smith will be there now, whether they add a 1238 01:04:39,880 --> 01:04:42,320 Speaker 1: rookie or not. I tend to think they wouldn't that 1239 01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:44,479 Speaker 1: high in the draft, but I think this is that's 1240 01:04:44,520 --> 01:04:46,080 Speaker 1: like one place I feel like we kind of know 1241 01:04:46,080 --> 01:04:48,320 Speaker 1: what's gonna happen at quarterback. Very little else we know 1242 01:04:48,360 --> 01:04:50,200 Speaker 1: what's gonna happen. I think we should have a come 1243 01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:52,320 Speaker 1: down player of the Year because this is a great 1244 01:04:52,320 --> 01:04:54,080 Speaker 1: story Regino, and if he goes and does it again 1245 01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:56,280 Speaker 1: in a second year, it's like we just simply believe 1246 01:04:56,320 --> 01:04:58,480 Speaker 1: that is who Gino Smith is. But he's a candidate 1247 01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:00,560 Speaker 1: to something like, oh wait a minute, would have a 1248 01:05:00,600 --> 01:05:03,200 Speaker 1: negative award, Like I know we wouldn't because it's the NFL, 1249 01:05:03,240 --> 01:05:05,080 Speaker 1: but it's just like it would be like, let's note 1250 01:05:05,120 --> 01:05:07,880 Speaker 1: the fact that just as the NFL, like in Gentlemen, 1251 01:05:08,240 --> 01:05:12,360 Speaker 1: really weird, always trend upwards for everyone all the time, 1252 01:05:13,320 --> 01:05:15,720 Speaker 1: there are other there is ebb and flow. It would 1253 01:05:15,760 --> 01:05:18,560 Speaker 1: be like, you know, Sam Donald in his third season 1254 01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:20,520 Speaker 1: gets the come down Player of the Year award. I'm 1255 01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:23,800 Speaker 1: trying to think of who even Baker Mayfield sir, yeah, 1256 01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:29,439 Speaker 1: I guess quarterbacks. That was another edition of yeah sure, 1257 01:05:30,800 --> 01:05:34,320 Speaker 1: sipping on Veno checking boots on the ground. I heard 1258 01:05:34,360 --> 01:05:38,280 Speaker 1: some good um just word that Gino and affable fellow 1259 01:05:38,320 --> 01:05:40,200 Speaker 1: there in Vegas. Just people that ran into him just 1260 01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:43,880 Speaker 1: right now. It's good to be Gino. Just you know, 1261 01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:48,960 Speaker 1: if you some great accuracy in that flag football, if 1262 01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:52,880 Speaker 1: you if you agree to do a go to a 1263 01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:57,280 Speaker 1: charity event or you know a kid's football camp with 1264 01:05:57,400 --> 01:06:01,200 Speaker 1: a teammate, do it wow. And if if if you 1265 01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:03,160 Speaker 1: don't do it, you gotta pay him back for the airfare. 1266 01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:06,040 Speaker 1: That's all that was a long time ago, four years old. 1267 01:06:06,320 --> 01:06:09,360 Speaker 1: He was a kid. I you can grow from it, 1268 01:06:09,400 --> 01:06:12,960 Speaker 1: but you're right that. I hope that I thought. I 1269 01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:18,680 Speaker 1: hope he's matured past that. But if someone doesn't do that, 1270 01:06:19,720 --> 01:06:24,200 Speaker 1: don't don't assault them, Yeah, you know, don't assault them. 1271 01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:27,200 Speaker 1: Don't be an idiot, right, That's that's that's a bigger 1272 01:06:27,360 --> 01:06:29,920 Speaker 1: that's very important to point that out as well. Do 1273 01:06:30,080 --> 01:06:34,480 Speaker 1: not break someone's jaw over a plane ticket. Um, Saints 1274 01:06:34,560 --> 01:06:38,720 Speaker 1: hire Joe Woods is their d C. Cool and Jerry 1275 01:06:38,800 --> 01:06:42,520 Speaker 1: Jones says st seron Mass they are back to the 1276 01:06:42,600 --> 01:06:47,320 Speaker 1: drawing board at Kicker with Brett Maher a free agent. 1277 01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:49,080 Speaker 1: Thanks for the hot tip on that one. I just 1278 01:06:49,120 --> 01:06:51,760 Speaker 1: want to say, like that, that whole thing struck me 1279 01:06:51,760 --> 01:06:54,920 Speaker 1: as so odd. How Dallas played the Maher after the 1280 01:06:54,960 --> 01:06:57,040 Speaker 1: meltdown in Monday night against the Box in the wild 1281 01:06:57,080 --> 01:06:59,680 Speaker 1: card round. There is no way he should ever been 1282 01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:03,560 Speaker 1: on that roster for a divisional round playoff game. And 1283 01:07:03,600 --> 01:07:06,080 Speaker 1: the fact that you carried him and used him in 1284 01:07:06,120 --> 01:07:08,400 Speaker 1: that game. And by the way, he didn't miss another 1285 01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:10,520 Speaker 1: extra point to start that game. It was blocked, but 1286 01:07:10,560 --> 01:07:12,400 Speaker 1: it would have been thirty yards to the left. It 1287 01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:15,400 Speaker 1: was blocked because it was a horrendous kick. Um, So 1288 01:07:15,480 --> 01:07:17,680 Speaker 1: you stuck with him for the biggest game that your 1289 01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:20,880 Speaker 1: franchise has had in quite some time, and then you're 1290 01:07:20,920 --> 01:07:23,800 Speaker 1: gonna just cut him loose as a free agent, Like, 1291 01:07:23,840 --> 01:07:25,880 Speaker 1: what's what was the point of keeping him for that game? Then? 1292 01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:27,520 Speaker 1: Like they should have just brought someone off the street 1293 01:07:27,520 --> 01:07:30,040 Speaker 1: that didn't have their head in a blender at that point. 1294 01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:32,600 Speaker 1: The Cowboys, man, what is going on with these guys? 1295 01:07:32,720 --> 01:07:37,800 Speaker 1: We love alkoholda back for that reason. So Jerry Jones 1296 01:07:37,840 --> 01:07:40,680 Speaker 1: can probably produce a quote on a week where you know, 1297 01:07:40,960 --> 01:07:43,240 Speaker 1: twenty five plus years ago, we'd be talking about the 1298 01:07:43,240 --> 01:07:45,960 Speaker 1: Cowboys this week. But unless Jerry Jones opens his mouth, 1299 01:07:46,120 --> 01:07:48,280 Speaker 1: there's nothing to say about Dallas, a team that's adrift. 1300 01:07:49,040 --> 01:07:53,920 Speaker 1: Oh it didn't make back to back division rounds. It's 1301 01:07:53,960 --> 01:07:58,320 Speaker 1: just something whoa not in the way they talk about themselves. 1302 01:07:58,320 --> 01:08:04,240 Speaker 1: That's young all right, that's it again, Uh NFL Plus. 1303 01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:06,320 Speaker 1: We are on NFL Plus and it won't be the 1304 01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:08,320 Speaker 1: first time.

Like, to me, this show is sort of 1319 01:08:52,520 --> 01:08:54,400 Speaker 1: about that, like how did we figure out how to 1320 01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:56,519 Speaker 1: we lose our friend and how how do we do it? 1321 01:08:56,560 --> 01:08:59,720 Speaker 1: And that the listeners being part of it the whole 1322 01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:02,880 Speaker 1: time is how we did it.
