<v Speaker 1>for the Big Ten Championship. Maybe if not, no big deal,

0:00:18.840 --> 0:00:20.760

<v Speaker 1>So it's on Amazon Music. By the way, if you're

0:01:06.360 --> 0:01:09.280
<v Speaker 1>looking for a great gift for Christmas, dan Patrick dot com.

0:01:09.360 --> 0:01:13.000
<v Speaker 1>We got t shirts, hoodies, we got coffee mugs, flannel shirts.

0:01:13.319 --> 0:01:16.200
<v Speaker 1>You name it one stop shop, and you have until

0:01:16.240 --> 0:01:19.640
<v Speaker 1>I believe the eighteenth of this month to order to

0:01:19.680 --> 0:01:23.000
<v Speaker 1>get it in time for Christmas. Also, the calendar is

0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:26.360
<v Speaker 1>on there as well. We'll get to phone calls coming up.

0:01:26.720 --> 0:01:28.760
<v Speaker 1>The NFL knew that they would have to be ready

0:01:28.760 --> 0:01:31.480
<v Speaker 1>for anything this year, but to pull a player like

0:01:31.560 --> 0:01:35.919
<v Speaker 1>Dez Bryant before last night's nationally televised game and then

0:01:36.120 --> 0:01:38.959
<v Speaker 1>let him go on a tweed storm that wasn't in

0:01:39.040 --> 0:01:42.880
<v Speaker 1>any commissioner's handbook. The Ravens receiver was fired up. He

0:01:43.000 --> 0:01:46.119
<v Speaker 1>was going to face his former team. Fox had a

0:01:46.200 --> 0:01:49.240
<v Speaker 1>story about in fact, des Bryant was pulled off the field,

0:01:49.280 --> 0:01:51.120
<v Speaker 1>wasn't going to play, and they still ran the feature

0:01:51.200 --> 0:01:55.160
<v Speaker 1>on Dez Bryant. Bryant said that he was gonna go

0:01:55.200 --> 0:01:58.160
<v Speaker 1>home and drink some wine and probably not play football

0:01:58.200 --> 0:02:01.720
<v Speaker 1>the rest of this year. I guess that's a logical

0:02:01.760 --> 0:02:04.280
<v Speaker 1>response to an illogical season when you think about it.

0:02:04.560 --> 0:02:06.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure how the NFL justified playing the game

0:02:07.040 --> 0:02:11.760
<v Speaker 1>while others were moved back because of contact tracing. I'll

0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:13.679
<v Speaker 1>have to see what happens when all the facts come out.

0:02:13.680 --> 0:02:16.080
<v Speaker 1>But the Ravens managed to play and beat the Cowboys.

0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:18.880
<v Speaker 1>They roughed him up, they ran for nearly three hundred

0:02:18.960 --> 0:02:23.440
<v Speaker 1>yards and the audience got to watch a relatively entertaining game.

0:02:24.400 --> 0:02:26.800
<v Speaker 1>But you can't help it watch the Cowboys, and I

0:02:26.840 --> 0:02:30.400
<v Speaker 1>know we overrate the Cowboys. Everything about the Cowboys is overrated.

0:02:32.480 --> 0:02:35.400
<v Speaker 1>And you have a defense that there are guys who

0:02:35.440 --> 0:02:38.839
<v Speaker 1>got paid. On that defense, I can give a haul

0:02:38.880 --> 0:02:41.920
<v Speaker 1>pass to the offense. With Dak Prescott out and the

0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:47.040
<v Speaker 1>offensive line has had injuries, Okay, you still have some

0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:49.799
<v Speaker 1>weapons on the offense. You still have Zeke Elliott that

0:02:49.880 --> 0:02:52.280
<v Speaker 1>everybody keeps telling me, yep, they made a smart move

0:02:52.320 --> 0:02:56.880
<v Speaker 1>and resigning him, all right, But the defense, that's where

0:02:57.160 --> 0:03:01.440
<v Speaker 1>I would have heads rolling. I'd have I just want accountability.

0:03:01.440 --> 0:03:06.680
<v Speaker 1>If I'm Jerry Jones, I just want accountability, just who's responsible,

0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:11.480
<v Speaker 1>And I would make I would be making moves here

0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:14.600
<v Speaker 1>because I got to get somebody's attention. Here. You're the Cowboys,

0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:20.559
<v Speaker 1>and you're planned like you're the Jaguars. In fact, Jacksonville's

0:03:20.600 --> 0:03:24.079
<v Speaker 1>more competitive probably weekend in weekend than the Cowboys. Are

0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:27.919
<v Speaker 1>got a lot of guys who got paid, and you'd

0:03:27.919 --> 0:03:31.600
<v Speaker 1>never know it when you watch that team. Yes, McLeman,

0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:35.120
<v Speaker 1>After the game. In the post game, the Fox guys

0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:37.880
<v Speaker 1>started diving to that topic about whether the Cowboys would

0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:40.800
<v Speaker 1>take another quarterback at four yea, even though they all

0:03:40.880 --> 0:03:44.240
<v Speaker 1>love Dak Prescott, they think he's great, But do you

0:03:44.640 --> 0:03:48.560
<v Speaker 1>need like a fresh start there? Anyway, if you're at four,

0:03:48.680 --> 0:03:53.520
<v Speaker 1>what do you do? You have to be absolutely positively

0:03:53.600 --> 0:03:56.920
<v Speaker 1>sure of drafting a quarterback that they can play for

0:03:56.960 --> 0:04:00.320
<v Speaker 1>you right away because Dallas is built to win. Now

0:04:00.800 --> 0:04:02.800
<v Speaker 1>spend all this money. They're built to win right now.

0:04:03.040 --> 0:04:05.240
<v Speaker 1>This isn't one of those hey we got a two

0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:10.040
<v Speaker 1>or three year period here, because they don't. They could

0:04:10.080 --> 0:04:13.000
<v Speaker 1>have signed Dak eighteen nineteen months ago, they screwed that

0:04:13.120 --> 0:04:16.640
<v Speaker 1>up and now here they are a bad football team.

0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:19.160
<v Speaker 1>And just the thought that they would be thinking about

0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:21.919
<v Speaker 1>a quarterback. If you said I could have you know,

0:04:21.960 --> 0:04:25.760
<v Speaker 1>Trevor Lawrence or Justin Fields, then I would certainly reconsider

0:04:25.960 --> 0:04:28.320
<v Speaker 1>what my game plan was going to be moving forward,

0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:31.320
<v Speaker 1>because then I get the rookie contract at that position,

0:04:31.720 --> 0:04:33.720
<v Speaker 1>and then I can afford to bring in a couple

0:04:33.760 --> 0:04:37.039
<v Speaker 1>of couple more players that might actually be worthy of

0:04:37.080 --> 0:04:41.359
<v Speaker 1>a contract better than the that I think Jerry Jones

0:04:41.440 --> 0:04:46.600
<v Speaker 1>knows he's stuck with these salaries and reputations and bring

0:04:46.720 --> 0:04:49.719
<v Speaker 1>Dak back and see what you have. Yeahs, M clevin,

0:04:50.279 --> 0:04:52.960
<v Speaker 1>what analogy I was thinking about? Drew Brees hurt his

0:04:53.040 --> 0:04:56.080
<v Speaker 1>shoulder and they drafted Philip Rivers at four and kept

0:04:56.080 --> 0:04:59.680
<v Speaker 1>Freeze around. Is there any reason to pay Dak forty

0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:02.440
<v Speaker 1>million and still draft a quarterback? Just a seat, make

0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:05.000
<v Speaker 1>sure he gets back to where he was or it's

0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:07.880
<v Speaker 1>not a waste of resources. Before I get ready to

0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:09.760
<v Speaker 1>pay him forty million dollars, I'm going to know if

0:05:09.800 --> 0:05:13.039
<v Speaker 1>he can play, and if he can play, I don't

0:05:13.040 --> 0:05:16.159
<v Speaker 1>want to waste a draft pick up there. Like you

0:05:16.279 --> 0:05:18.960
<v Speaker 1>have other needs, and if your offensive line is not

0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:21.359
<v Speaker 1>going to be what it once was, then I gotta

0:05:21.480 --> 0:05:24.039
<v Speaker 1>I gotta make a move. I can trade out of

0:05:24.120 --> 0:05:27.240
<v Speaker 1>four and probably have somebody go up who wants to

0:05:27.240 --> 0:05:29.839
<v Speaker 1>get one of these quarterbacks, and then maybe I can

0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:34.839
<v Speaker 1>start to reload, not rebuild, but reload the offensive line.

0:05:35.839 --> 0:05:38.920
<v Speaker 1>But I just have question marks about what kind of

0:05:38.960 --> 0:05:42.120
<v Speaker 1>effort does that Dallas team put forward. I mean this

0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:46.599
<v Speaker 1>is they've given up two hundred and ninety yards twice

0:05:46.640 --> 0:05:50.080
<v Speaker 1>this year and again last night, and the Cleveland Browns

0:05:51.400 --> 0:05:56.320
<v Speaker 1>they've done that one other time in franchise history. Mike

0:05:56.480 --> 0:06:00.760
<v Speaker 1>Nolan's defense is not working. Mike McCarthy is not the

0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:05.559
<v Speaker 1>right guy for that position. But I don't think Jerry

0:06:05.680 --> 0:06:08.400
<v Speaker 1>is going to make any changes with Mike McCarthy. Man

0:06:08.440 --> 0:06:11.640
<v Speaker 1>he would be one and done. We wondered why he

0:06:11.680 --> 0:06:13.320
<v Speaker 1>was brought in in the first place. As I said,

0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:14.600
<v Speaker 1>when they brought him in, it's not like he's a

0:06:14.600 --> 0:06:17.599
<v Speaker 1>little bartie. You're in bringing him in. I mean, they

0:06:17.600 --> 0:06:19.960
<v Speaker 1>could have stayed with Jason Garrett and gotten this performance,

0:06:20.800 --> 0:06:23.480
<v Speaker 1>but you brought in Mike McCarthy, and you're like, yes,

0:06:24.279 --> 0:06:29.440
<v Speaker 1>we got Michael McCarthy. Was anybody else bidding for Mike McCarthy.

0:06:29.520 --> 0:06:31.200
<v Speaker 1>And if I'm Jerry Jones, you know what I do.

0:06:33.600 --> 0:06:38.720
<v Speaker 1>I surprise everybody and I say, I want to bring

0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:41.560
<v Speaker 1>in Eric b Enemy as my head coach. I'm gonna

0:06:41.600 --> 0:06:45.240
<v Speaker 1>take him off everybody else list because it feels like

0:06:45.279 --> 0:06:47.479
<v Speaker 1>they're three or four, maybe five teams that would bring

0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:50.680
<v Speaker 1>in Eric b Enemy. How about I go get him

0:06:50.720 --> 0:06:53.960
<v Speaker 1>and I have him as my head coach here with Dallas.

0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:58.960
<v Speaker 1>I know it'll never happen, but you gotta get something.

0:06:59.000 --> 0:07:04.000
<v Speaker 1>You're stagnant, you're boring, you're irrelevant. Those are things you

0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:06.720
<v Speaker 1>would never those words you don't attach to the Dallass Cownboys,

0:07:06.720 --> 0:07:10.920
<v Speaker 1>but that's what they are. Yeah, mcluv, I can think

0:07:10.960 --> 0:07:13.560
<v Speaker 1>of a Rara coach who might be available. He wears

0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:20.200
<v Speaker 1>Khaki's Jim harm Harbaugh Dallas, Well, I've never seen it

0:07:20.280 --> 0:07:22.760
<v Speaker 1>written at all, by the way, No, no, no, no,

0:07:23.920 --> 0:07:26.160
<v Speaker 1>But you know, I saw a report where five teams

0:07:26.160 --> 0:07:28.960
<v Speaker 1>are interested in Jim Harball if he decides he goes

0:07:28.960 --> 0:07:32.240
<v Speaker 1>to the NFL. I don't know if one of those

0:07:32.240 --> 0:07:35.360
<v Speaker 1>teams would be doubted. Would the Detroit Lions be interested

0:07:35.360 --> 0:07:39.000
<v Speaker 1>in Jim Harball? I mean that that would be the ultimate. Hey,

0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:41.440
<v Speaker 1>he's not going to coach at Michigan, but he's staying

0:07:41.440 --> 0:07:43.480
<v Speaker 1>in the state. He's going to be the Detroit Lions

0:07:43.520 --> 0:07:46.760
<v Speaker 1>head coach. He has Polly. Going back to the draft.

0:07:46.800 --> 0:07:49.000
<v Speaker 1>The draft order right now after the last night's game

0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:52.280
<v Speaker 1>is Jets number one, Jacksonville two, Cincinnati three. They don't

0:07:52.320 --> 0:07:54.280
<v Speaker 1>need a quarterback. Dallas right now is in the fourth

0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:57.240
<v Speaker 1>spot for the NFL draft, then the charters, and then

0:07:57.280 --> 0:08:01.520
<v Speaker 1>the Philadelphia Eagles in the sixth spot. Then then well,

0:08:02.680 --> 0:08:05.120
<v Speaker 1>I think the Eagles got to decide what they have

0:08:05.160 --> 0:08:09.360
<v Speaker 1>on their own roster right now. But if you said, well,

0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:12.800
<v Speaker 1>these teams can trade out of this. Cincinnati doesn't need it,

0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:16.560
<v Speaker 1>Jacksonville does, and the Jets do, and then you get

0:08:16.600 --> 0:08:21.280
<v Speaker 1>to Dallas. If I'm Dallas, I can use this to

0:08:21.320 --> 0:08:24.040
<v Speaker 1>my advantage being really bad, get out of there and

0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:26.720
<v Speaker 1>then still be able to stockpile a little bit. The

0:08:26.800 --> 0:08:30.080
<v Speaker 1>Chargers don't need a quarterback. Philadelphia has got to decide

0:08:30.200 --> 0:08:35.440
<v Speaker 1>if they have a legitimate starting quarterback there. Carolina looks

0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:37.360
<v Speaker 1>like they would be in the market for a quarterback.

0:08:37.600 --> 0:08:41.560
<v Speaker 1>What's Atlanta do with Matt Ryan. Houston doesn't need a quarterback,

0:08:42.960 --> 0:08:46.240
<v Speaker 1>although that pick goes to Miami, Denver. I don't know

0:08:46.240 --> 0:08:51.440
<v Speaker 1>what Denver's doing. Washington, they would be in the market

0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:57.840
<v Speaker 1>for a quarterback. Detroit, Chicago, even San Francisco's in there.

0:08:58.160 --> 0:09:00.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, there's a lot of teams they're gonna be

0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:05.640
<v Speaker 1>interested in, uh in a quarterback. But you know with Dallas, um,

0:09:06.559 --> 0:09:10.480
<v Speaker 1>they need other things. Here's Mike McCarthy on what the

0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:14.400
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys didn't do enough of last night. Three hundred yards

0:09:14.480 --> 0:09:18.280
<v Speaker 1>is obviously astronomical. You know, we have to we have

0:09:18.320 --> 0:09:20.840
<v Speaker 1>to get a quick turnaround, you know, just when you.

0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:22.520
<v Speaker 1>You know, you feel like you're taking some steps as

0:09:22.520 --> 0:09:25.280
<v Speaker 1>a team. Uh, you know the you know, the keys

0:09:25.280 --> 0:09:27.280
<v Speaker 1>to the game. Where was stopping a round and we

0:09:27.480 --> 0:09:30.480
<v Speaker 1>definitely get that done to night. Don't I hear this

0:09:30.559 --> 0:09:36.200
<v Speaker 1>every game? It feels like, all right, here is John Harball,

0:09:36.280 --> 0:09:39.520
<v Speaker 1>the Raven's head coach, on his star quarterback, Lamar Jackson.

0:09:40.360 --> 0:09:42.959
<v Speaker 1>One thing you do know about Lamar, You're gonna get

0:09:42.960 --> 0:09:45.040
<v Speaker 1>everything he's got, you know, and that's really all you

0:09:45.040 --> 0:09:48.200
<v Speaker 1>can ask for. Uh, He's gonna give you whatever he has.

0:09:48.240 --> 0:09:50.160
<v Speaker 1>And it turned out that he had a lot tonight

0:09:50.280 --> 0:09:51.600
<v Speaker 1>and that was good to see. I don't think you

0:09:51.600 --> 0:09:54.520
<v Speaker 1>could predict that he came out to practice. He looked

0:09:54.520 --> 0:09:57.840
<v Speaker 1>good in practice. He uh, he was strong and healthy.

0:09:58.520 --> 0:09:59.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm just impressed in the fact that he was on

0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:02.400
<v Speaker 1>top of the game plan so well. He'd been studying

0:10:02.400 --> 0:10:04.040
<v Speaker 1>obligely the whole time he's away, and he played a

0:10:04.040 --> 0:10:07.280
<v Speaker 1>great football game. Yeah he did. But it helps if

0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:11.640
<v Speaker 1>you have a Dallas defense that is clueless because when

0:10:11.679 --> 0:10:15.120
<v Speaker 1>I can play the role of amateur Tony Romo watching

0:10:15.160 --> 0:10:18.920
<v Speaker 1>the game and going, oh, Lamar's gonna run third down,

0:10:19.200 --> 0:10:24.320
<v Speaker 1>Lamar's gonna run. If I know I would think that

0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:27.000
<v Speaker 1>the Dallas defense would know as well. I'm gonna let

0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:30.880
<v Speaker 1>Lamar jack if Lamar Jackson beats me with his arm, okay,

0:10:31.720 --> 0:10:34.960
<v Speaker 1>but I'm not gonna let him beat me with his legs,

0:10:35.120 --> 0:10:39.240
<v Speaker 1>where he's far more valuable. Yes, I'm just impressed he

0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:41.760
<v Speaker 1>knew the game plan so well. I don't know, what

0:10:41.920 --> 0:10:44.600
<v Speaker 1>is that? Like? Yeah, isn't that kind of what you

0:10:44.679 --> 0:10:47.520
<v Speaker 1>expect from your quarterback? Like? Hey, how about him? He

0:10:47.600 --> 0:10:50.239
<v Speaker 1>knew what we were doing this week? That was impressive?

0:10:50.480 --> 0:10:52.800
<v Speaker 1>Like what that didn't sound like much of a compliment

0:10:52.840 --> 0:10:57.600
<v Speaker 1>to me. Jerry Jones on Tuesday morning did his weekly

0:10:57.760 --> 0:11:00.880
<v Speaker 1>interview on one oh five point three the Fan in Dallas,

0:11:01.360 --> 0:11:03.600
<v Speaker 1>and I had some things to say. He talked about

0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:07.400
<v Speaker 1>how Washington and the Giants are playing well and what

0:11:07.440 --> 0:11:09.959
<v Speaker 1>that means to Jerry Jones and the Cowboys. I think

0:11:10.000 --> 0:11:13.280
<v Speaker 1>it's an encouraging sign, Mike, to see these teams, these

0:11:13.320 --> 0:11:18.160
<v Speaker 1>new coaches, these new staffs, new I will directions that

0:11:18.240 --> 0:11:22.360
<v Speaker 1>they're going and see them playing some better football as

0:11:22.360 --> 0:11:26.440
<v Speaker 1>we saw the last two or three days. I'm not

0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:30.960
<v Speaker 1>interested in Jerry Jones necessarily. Tuesday morning. I'm really interested

0:11:31.000 --> 0:11:34.199
<v Speaker 1>in Jerry Jones on Wednesday morning. That's when I want

0:11:34.240 --> 0:11:39.000
<v Speaker 1>to hear from Jerry Jones. Here's Jerry talking about Dak

0:11:39.080 --> 0:11:45.479
<v Speaker 1>Prescott moving forward with his running skills. I've always handicapped

0:11:47.360 --> 0:11:53.080
<v Speaker 1>to some degree Dak because of the fact that he's

0:11:53.160 --> 0:11:59.439
<v Speaker 1>so effective and has been in his career and the

0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:03.760
<v Speaker 1>running in the running game and his ability to take

0:12:03.800 --> 0:12:06.280
<v Speaker 1>it down and get the big play and get the yards.

0:12:06.720 --> 0:12:11.400
<v Speaker 1>I've always known that he couldn't do that like that

0:12:12.000 --> 0:12:15.880
<v Speaker 1>for long in the NFL. All right, thank you, Jerry.

0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:20.360

0:12:32.280 --> 0:12:34.920

0:12:34.920 --> 0:12:38.760
<v Speaker 1>of the stars on Election Night NBC News political correspondent

0:12:38.880 --> 0:12:42.040
<v Speaker 1>Steve Karnaki, and he was a star in Football Night

0:12:42.040 --> 0:12:45.760
<v Speaker 1>in America this past Sunday as he was looking at teams.

0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:47.880
<v Speaker 1>You know, there were teams that look like they have

0:12:47.880 --> 0:12:50.800
<v Speaker 1>a better chance of making the playoffs. And Steve's job

0:12:50.920 --> 0:12:54.160
<v Speaker 1>is to look at the odds and the percentages, and

0:12:54.280 --> 0:12:57.040
<v Speaker 1>he had some teams that aren't in the playoff picture

0:12:57.120 --> 0:12:58.880
<v Speaker 1>right now, but he feels like they have a better

0:12:58.960 --> 0:13:01.920
<v Speaker 1>chance than some of those who are in. And he'll

0:13:01.960 --> 0:13:04.960
<v Speaker 1>join us coming up. Also, Paul Feinbaum from the Mothership

0:13:05.000 --> 0:13:07.640
<v Speaker 1>will join us a little bit later on with what's

0:13:07.640 --> 0:13:10.760
<v Speaker 1>going on with college football? Yes, Paul, you know Steve

0:13:10.840 --> 0:13:13.960
<v Speaker 1>Cornaki is kind of like mclovin's bit where but when

0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Steve Cornaki does it, everything goes right, and everything is smooth,

0:13:16.960 --> 0:13:19.240
<v Speaker 1>and the TV works and all the things he swipes

0:13:19.280 --> 0:13:21.719
<v Speaker 1>they work perfectly. Mcloven If he were the guy going

0:13:21.720 --> 0:13:24.160
<v Speaker 1>through the playoff thing, the TV would fall over, he'd

0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:26.839
<v Speaker 1>have the wrong you hit like the CFL logoes up there,

0:13:26.880 --> 0:13:28.880
<v Speaker 1>And that's the only difference between the two. They both

0:13:28.920 --> 0:13:30.840
<v Speaker 1>know it, but it would go totally different. So he'll

0:13:30.880 --> 0:13:33.720
<v Speaker 1>join us coming in some phone calls here, are you

0:13:33.720 --> 0:13:36.640
<v Speaker 1>going to stay with the pole question mcleven about Ohio State?

0:13:37.280 --> 0:13:40.120
<v Speaker 1>Actually it's sixty four percent said say no, they're not

0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:42.720
<v Speaker 1>okay with Ohio sapying in the final four. How about

0:13:42.760 --> 0:13:45.280
<v Speaker 1>we do a question what's the next team to take?

0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:48.240
<v Speaker 1>Who's taking the third quarterback? And list all those teams

0:13:48.240 --> 0:13:51.600
<v Speaker 1>you talk about assuming the first two are Jets and Jaguars.

0:13:51.640 --> 0:13:54.200
<v Speaker 1>Then you listed all those teams, it seems like there's

0:13:54.240 --> 0:13:57.120
<v Speaker 1>seven quarterback needy teams in the top ten. I'm curious

0:13:57.120 --> 0:14:02.880
<v Speaker 1>you people think Dallas, Philly, Atlanta, Detroit. Atlanta and Detroit

0:14:02.920 --> 0:14:08.280
<v Speaker 1>are interesting because I thought Detroit, you know, if you

0:14:08.400 --> 0:14:12.080
<v Speaker 1>had a more stable coaching staff, I think they would

0:14:12.080 --> 0:14:15.400
<v Speaker 1>have taken to a tongue of Ioloah. But Matt Patricia

0:14:15.440 --> 0:14:17.080
<v Speaker 1>and his staff, from what I was told, they knew

0:14:17.120 --> 0:14:18.520
<v Speaker 1>they had to win this year. They were going to

0:14:18.559 --> 0:14:20.840
<v Speaker 1>be fired, and they got fired. As far as what's

0:14:20.880 --> 0:14:23.920
<v Speaker 1>going on in Atlanta, you're gonna have a new head coach.

0:14:24.120 --> 0:14:26.480
<v Speaker 1>Is Matt Ryan going to stay there? Julio Jones going

0:14:26.560 --> 0:14:28.600
<v Speaker 1>to stay there? Do you rebuild? Do you think you

0:14:28.640 --> 0:14:32.120
<v Speaker 1>can reload Tampa and New Orleans or the class of

0:14:32.200 --> 0:14:36.560
<v Speaker 1>the division there? So I'm I'm not quite sure. But

0:14:36.640 --> 0:14:40.600
<v Speaker 1>also I wonder as we look at these quarterbacks who

0:14:40.600 --> 0:14:43.000
<v Speaker 1>are going to be out for these big contract extensions,

0:14:43.880 --> 0:14:48.200
<v Speaker 1>given what happened with Carson Wentz and that contract. Do

0:14:48.400 --> 0:14:51.920
<v Speaker 1>I give a big contract to Lamar Jackson? Do I

0:14:51.960 --> 0:14:54.760
<v Speaker 1>give a big contract to Baker Mayfield? Do I give

0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:59.240
<v Speaker 1>a big contract to Josh Allen, and I think, man

0:14:59.320 --> 0:15:03.440
<v Speaker 1>I buyer, beware with what has happened with Carson Wentz,

0:15:04.280 --> 0:15:06.920
<v Speaker 1>because if you can't get the Colts to trade for

0:15:07.040 --> 0:15:09.680
<v Speaker 1>him or maybe somebody else, you're gonna be stuck with

0:15:09.720 --> 0:15:15.240
<v Speaker 1>that contract. Buffalo, it feels like they will extend Josh Allen,

0:15:15.440 --> 0:15:19.880
<v Speaker 1>but look at the going rate for quarterbacks. I mean,

0:15:20.000 --> 0:15:22.240
<v Speaker 1>they're going to be getting at least thirty five to

0:15:22.480 --> 0:15:26.120
<v Speaker 1>thirty seven maybe even more a year. You want to

0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:30.280
<v Speaker 1>do that to Baker Mayfield. You want to do that

0:15:30.320 --> 0:15:33.520
<v Speaker 1>to Lamar Jackson. You want to do it to Josh Allen.

0:15:34.760 --> 0:15:37.160
<v Speaker 1>These are questions that you're going to have, these teams

0:15:37.160 --> 0:15:40.000
<v Speaker 1>are going to have. But I think Buffalo will do

0:15:40.040 --> 0:15:43.920
<v Speaker 1>that with Josh Allen. I'm gonna guess Baltimore will do

0:15:43.960 --> 0:15:46.640
<v Speaker 1>it with Lamar Jackson. I don't know if Cleveland's going

0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:49.000
<v Speaker 1>to do that with Baker Mayfield. I mean it might

0:15:49.080 --> 0:15:54.160
<v Speaker 1>come down to how Baker performs this year and how

0:15:54.160 --> 0:15:57.480
<v Speaker 1>they do in the playoffs. Let me see a couple

0:15:57.520 --> 0:16:00.320
<v Speaker 1>of phone called Jonathan in Pennsylvania. Hey John, what do

0:16:00.360 --> 0:16:05.240
<v Speaker 1>you have for me today? Hey Dpy, I've been here,

0:16:05.320 --> 0:16:07.400
<v Speaker 1>I've been a fan of Deer for a long time.

0:16:07.760 --> 0:16:11.480
<v Speaker 1>And uh, I got to say, you know, as we

0:16:11.600 --> 0:16:15.359
<v Speaker 1>talked about the Cowboys so many times and it's overrated

0:16:15.360 --> 0:16:18.000
<v Speaker 1>and all that. As the copy says myself, you know

0:16:18.040 --> 0:16:20.280
<v Speaker 1>that you talked about Jerry Jones, Well he should think

0:16:20.320 --> 0:16:24.640
<v Speaker 1>that he should do for me. Jerry Jones ain't gonna

0:16:24.680 --> 0:16:28.040
<v Speaker 1>do nothing. He's not gonna he's gonna do no moves,

0:16:28.560 --> 0:16:31.840
<v Speaker 1>no nothing, because he is the owner and he is

0:16:31.880 --> 0:16:35.480
<v Speaker 1>the GM, and he's definitely not gonna do anything to

0:16:35.560 --> 0:16:39.640
<v Speaker 1>help out the Cowboys at all. He's he's the biggest,

0:16:39.720 --> 0:16:43.640
<v Speaker 1>he has money all all around, but he's never gonna

0:16:43.640 --> 0:16:47.120
<v Speaker 1>do anything. Never well. But the problem is though Jonathan,

0:16:47.200 --> 0:16:50.920
<v Speaker 1>he tries and sometimes he get gets into his own way.

0:16:51.360 --> 0:16:54.840
<v Speaker 1>I understand that they were taking Connor Cook. That was

0:16:54.880 --> 0:16:58.240
<v Speaker 1>the quarterback they were going to take at a Michigan state.

0:16:58.680 --> 0:17:02.240
<v Speaker 1>They weren't taken down Prescott. They were taking Connor Cook.

0:17:02.880 --> 0:17:05.120
<v Speaker 1>And then the Raiders took Connor Cook. They wouldn't even

0:17:05.160 --> 0:17:11.280
<v Speaker 1>have Dak Prescott. Jerry the GM, Jerry the owner. They

0:17:11.320 --> 0:17:16.120
<v Speaker 1>toyed with the idea taking Johnny manziel Amari Cooper kind

0:17:16.119 --> 0:17:20.760
<v Speaker 1>one hundred million dollars. You resign, re up Zeke Elliott.

0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:25.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean those are all Jerry's moves, and I can

0:17:25.960 --> 0:17:29.000
<v Speaker 1>credit him for some of the finds that they've had

0:17:29.280 --> 0:17:35.240
<v Speaker 1>or that you know they did draft correctly. But Jerry

0:17:35.240 --> 0:17:38.439
<v Speaker 1>the owner and Jerry the GM, those are two different people.

0:17:39.520 --> 0:17:46.320
<v Speaker 1>And Dallas paid everybody. Everybody, everybody got paid, and then

0:17:46.680 --> 0:17:48.680
<v Speaker 1>they weren't quite sure on Dyk. I don't know about

0:17:48.720 --> 0:17:51.320
<v Speaker 1>Danny Well, I don't know about Dak, and then they

0:17:51.359 --> 0:17:57.679
<v Speaker 1>waited eighteen months and here we are, Yes, the dang man.

0:17:57.720 --> 0:17:59.040
<v Speaker 1>You can't figure out a way to get the ball,

0:17:59.160 --> 0:18:02.760
<v Speaker 1>either Ceede Lamb or a Mark Cooper, Like, it doesn't

0:18:02.760 --> 0:18:05.040
<v Speaker 1>feel like it should be that hard to figure out

0:18:05.720 --> 0:18:09.200
<v Speaker 1>a decent offense with the weapons they are. I don't

0:18:09.200 --> 0:18:12.239
<v Speaker 1>know what their offensive game plan is because it and

0:18:12.320 --> 0:18:14.960
<v Speaker 1>I know Andy Dalton's in there, and it's on Dak Prescott.

0:18:15.400 --> 0:18:18.400
<v Speaker 1>It's not that far of a drop off between Dak

0:18:18.440 --> 0:18:23.200
<v Speaker 1>Prescott and Andy Dalton. Oh, I mean, it's sound like

0:18:23.280 --> 0:18:27.359
<v Speaker 1>Joe Namat to Chad Pennington. Yes, mclumban, how do you

0:18:27.600 --> 0:18:29.560
<v Speaker 1>throw the ball to Cede Labor or Mary Cooper when

0:18:29.560 --> 0:18:32.400
<v Speaker 1>you're on the sidelines for eleven minutes watching the other

0:18:32.440 --> 0:18:35.360
<v Speaker 1>team gass you for any yard to run. Run. If

0:18:35.359 --> 0:18:37.560
<v Speaker 1>you can't stop the run, your quarterback is doomed because

0:18:37.600 --> 0:18:39.560
<v Speaker 1>he never gets a rhythm. And by the way, Andy

0:18:39.600 --> 0:18:43.200
<v Speaker 1>two for three hundred last night, No big deal. You're right,

0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:48.800
<v Speaker 1>it was no big deal. Well, one seventy within garbage time,

0:18:48.840 --> 0:18:51.320
<v Speaker 1>but whatever. Yeah, we're not counting. It's the only total number.

0:18:51.440 --> 0:18:53.919
<v Speaker 1>No big deal, no, no big deal. All right, let

0:18:53.960 --> 0:18:56.439
<v Speaker 1>me take a break. We'll get two phone calls. Got

<v Speaker 1>in America, and he'll run the percentages here of teams

0:19:09.160 --> 0:19:11.520
<v Speaker 1>that maybe you don't think are going to make the playoffs,

0:19:11.520 --> 0:19:14.880

<v Speaker 1>I talk about this occasionally where we stumble upon somebody,

0:21:17.240 --> 0:21:19.600
<v Speaker 1>an athlete, and we go, oh, they took him ten

0:21:19.680 --> 0:21:22.800
<v Speaker 1>years to become an overnight sensation. Like Kyle Trask, the

0:21:22.840 --> 0:21:25.760
<v Speaker 1>Florida quarterback who might win the Heisman. Well, he's had

0:21:25.800 --> 0:21:27.560
<v Speaker 1>a long road to get to this point. And then

0:21:27.560 --> 0:21:30.040
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden, we go, oh, Kyle Trask, Yes,

0:21:30.119 --> 0:21:32.359
<v Speaker 1>but it took a long time to get there. Steve

0:21:32.400 --> 0:21:36.520

0:21:42.240 --> 0:21:44.680
<v Speaker 1>you became an overnight sensation, but took you a long

0:21:44.720 --> 0:21:47.959
<v Speaker 1>time to become an overnight sensation. Steve, thanks for joining us.

0:21:48.000 --> 0:21:49.800
<v Speaker 1>What do people say to you when they see you

0:21:49.840 --> 0:21:54.520
<v Speaker 1>on the street. Thanks for having me, happy to be here. Well,

0:21:54.680 --> 0:21:56.199
<v Speaker 1>I guess one of the things about life in the

0:21:56.240 --> 0:21:58.600
<v Speaker 1>pandemic is you don't see too many people on the street.

0:21:58.680 --> 0:22:02.160
<v Speaker 1>So the you I've run into, though, Yeah, the map guy,

0:22:02.240 --> 0:22:05.840
<v Speaker 1>the numbers guy. You know, still a few every now

0:22:05.840 --> 0:22:07.600
<v Speaker 1>and then they'll say, hey, it's Chris Hayes. So I

0:22:07.680 --> 0:22:13.960
<v Speaker 1>still get that. How do you become the election map expert? Um?

0:22:14.200 --> 0:22:16.280
<v Speaker 1>You know, honestly, it's something I It's a role I

0:22:16.359 --> 0:22:19.040
<v Speaker 1>kind of always wanted. It's it's one that's kind of, um,

0:22:19.440 --> 0:22:21.520
<v Speaker 1>I think, come into being in the last twenty years

0:22:21.600 --> 0:22:23.280
<v Speaker 1>or so. It's funny when I go back and look

0:22:23.280 --> 0:22:27.280
<v Speaker 1>at I love looking at kind of archive, you know, archive,

0:22:27.359 --> 0:22:29.560
<v Speaker 1>news footage, archive sports footage. I like looking at stuff

0:22:29.600 --> 0:22:32.760
<v Speaker 1>from the past. I realized, you know, just twenty years ago,

0:22:32.760 --> 0:22:35.119
<v Speaker 1>back in two thousand, you know, Tim Rusher was here

0:22:35.160 --> 0:22:37.320
<v Speaker 1>at NBC and you know the famous moment in the

0:22:37.320 --> 0:22:39.399
<v Speaker 1>two thousand election when it all came down to Florida

0:22:39.440 --> 0:22:42.600
<v Speaker 1>a couple of hundred votes. Rusher didn't have an electronic board.

0:22:42.640 --> 0:22:44.359
<v Speaker 1>He had a he had a white board, and he

0:22:44.440 --> 0:22:47.120
<v Speaker 1>just wrote down Florida Florida, Florida, and I think that's

0:22:47.119 --> 0:22:49.760
<v Speaker 1>in the Smithsonian now, but I mean that was technology

0:22:49.840 --> 0:22:51.879
<v Speaker 1>just twenty years ago. So this, you know, the idea

0:22:51.920 --> 0:22:54.200
<v Speaker 1>of having a board with real time data with numbers,

0:22:54.200 --> 0:22:56.160
<v Speaker 1>it's really come in in the last ten fifteen years,

0:22:56.200 --> 0:22:58.800
<v Speaker 1>but you know, since it's kind of been around, I

0:22:59.040 --> 0:23:00.760
<v Speaker 1>had my eye on it and I got lucky about

0:23:01.119 --> 0:23:04.280
<v Speaker 1>it was twenty fourteen. Actually twenty fourteen. My boss here

0:23:04.280 --> 0:23:06.439
<v Speaker 1>called me up about two months before the election, said, hey,

0:23:06.480 --> 0:23:08.360
<v Speaker 1>we need somebody to do this. You think you could

0:23:08.400 --> 0:23:10.080
<v Speaker 1>do something with it. I said, yeah, I think I could.

0:23:10.119 --> 0:23:12.280
<v Speaker 1>So that was the start of it for me. How

0:23:12.320 --> 0:23:17.280
<v Speaker 1>do you memorize all the counties? You know, I think

0:23:17.280 --> 0:23:19.639
<v Speaker 1>it's just good old fashioned, you know, staring at it,

0:23:19.960 --> 0:23:22.919
<v Speaker 1>memorizing it, repeating it, pulling out the map, trying again.

0:23:23.600 --> 0:23:26.280
<v Speaker 1>You know, it helps. I haven't been to all these

0:23:26.320 --> 0:23:28.680
<v Speaker 1>places I've I've not been to more counties than I've

0:23:28.720 --> 0:23:31.520
<v Speaker 1>been to. But you know, one thing in the last

0:23:31.520 --> 0:23:35.240
<v Speaker 1>six years, I will you know, I vacationed in Ohio

0:23:35.440 --> 0:23:37.240
<v Speaker 1>about two years ago, just to learn the state, to

0:23:37.560 --> 0:23:39.080
<v Speaker 1>learn the counties, to get a better sense of it.

0:23:39.119 --> 0:23:42.639
<v Speaker 1>That way, that helps. But obviously I haven't done that anywhere,

0:23:42.680 --> 0:23:44.320
<v Speaker 1>so really it's just it's like cramming for a final.

0:23:44.400 --> 0:23:47.280
<v Speaker 1>It's just memorization and repetition, and it the memory kind

0:23:47.320 --> 0:23:52.080
<v Speaker 1>of builds. Who's better on the touch screen? You're John King? Oh,

0:23:52.119 --> 0:23:55.760
<v Speaker 1>come on, he's John King's the original, and you know,

0:23:55.880 --> 0:23:58.680
<v Speaker 1>nothing but respect for him. And honestly, I haven't seen

0:23:58.880 --> 0:24:01.760
<v Speaker 1>a CNN election since I've been doing this because there's

0:24:01.760 --> 0:24:04.560
<v Speaker 1>no time to watch it, so I'm not qualified to say.

0:24:04.880 --> 0:24:08.200
<v Speaker 1>You're kind of like, um, Lamar Jackson and he's Michael

0:24:08.280 --> 0:24:11.320
<v Speaker 1>Vick like he might have been the original, and then

0:24:11.800 --> 0:24:16.040
<v Speaker 1>you're an updated version of it. That's it. He's still

0:24:16.080 --> 0:24:19.320
<v Speaker 1>doing hey, and Fox has someone doing it, and I don't.

0:24:19.359 --> 0:24:21.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to get into anything with anybody. I

0:24:21.640 --> 0:24:23.760
<v Speaker 1>try not to make enemies. How did you end up

0:24:23.800 --> 0:24:26.520
<v Speaker 1>on Football Night in America? You know, I got a

0:24:26.520 --> 0:24:29.760
<v Speaker 1>call about a week after the election from my boss

0:24:29.800 --> 0:24:32.280
<v Speaker 1>here saying, the you know, the folks at NBC Sports, um,

0:24:32.480 --> 0:24:34.159
<v Speaker 1>you know, wanted to, you know, talk to me. I

0:24:34.200 --> 0:24:36.800
<v Speaker 1>had a couple of ideas. I was very excited to

0:24:37.200 --> 0:24:39.720
<v Speaker 1>hear that. And you know, so we've been talking for

0:24:39.720 --> 0:24:42.639
<v Speaker 1>about two weeks before it, and you know, came up

0:24:42.640 --> 0:24:44.879
<v Speaker 1>with the idea. I think you know that, Hey, this

0:24:45.000 --> 0:24:47.800
<v Speaker 1>is December in the NFL. It's it's when the playoff

0:24:47.880 --> 0:24:49.919
<v Speaker 1>race really gets serious. And I think there was a

0:24:50.040 --> 0:24:52.240
<v Speaker 1>it seemed like there really was a parallel there between

0:24:52.760 --> 0:24:54.760
<v Speaker 1>road to two seventy and an electoral map for a

0:24:54.800 --> 0:24:57.720
<v Speaker 1>presidential election and road to the playoffs. It's all about scenarios.

0:24:57.720 --> 0:24:59.840
<v Speaker 1>It's all about if this state goes this way or

0:24:59.840 --> 0:25:02.040
<v Speaker 1>if this team does this. It really did seem to

0:25:02.080 --> 0:25:04.560
<v Speaker 1>be an overlap there. What give me a couple of

0:25:04.600 --> 0:25:07.439
<v Speaker 1>teams that aren't maybe being mentioned as playoff teams, but

0:25:07.520 --> 0:25:10.080
<v Speaker 1>you think they have a better chance than maybe a

0:25:10.119 --> 0:25:12.199
<v Speaker 1>couple of teams that we think are going to make

0:25:12.200 --> 0:25:15.119
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs. Yeah, I mean, I don't know if this

0:25:15.200 --> 0:25:17.720
<v Speaker 1>is now two counterintuitive Watching the game last night, I

0:25:17.760 --> 0:25:19.600
<v Speaker 1>know they were talking about this a lot. But Baltimore,

0:25:19.880 --> 0:25:21.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, sitting there right now at seven and five,

0:25:21.800 --> 0:25:23.960
<v Speaker 1>would not be in the playoffs if they started today.

0:25:24.000 --> 0:25:26.440
<v Speaker 1>If you just look at their schedule, they get Cleveland

0:25:26.480 --> 0:25:29.960
<v Speaker 1>next week and after that it's three teams with losing records,

0:25:30.200 --> 0:25:32.199
<v Speaker 1>you know, so they've got a really easy schedule down

0:25:32.280 --> 0:25:34.439
<v Speaker 1>the stretch. It's not hard to see them getting, you know,

0:25:34.520 --> 0:25:37.480
<v Speaker 1>to ten wins, and you compare that, like to Miami,

0:25:37.840 --> 0:25:39.640
<v Speaker 1>who would be in right now in the sixth spot.

0:25:39.680 --> 0:25:41.880
<v Speaker 1>You know, Miami a game ahead of Baltimore in the standing,

0:25:41.920 --> 0:25:44.040
<v Speaker 1>sitting there at eight and four. Miami doesn't have a

0:25:44.080 --> 0:25:47.080
<v Speaker 1>single game left against a team with a losing record,

0:25:47.119 --> 0:25:49.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean, starting with Kansas City next week. So you know,

0:25:49.960 --> 0:25:52.119
<v Speaker 1>the sort of the burdens on Miami to show they

0:25:52.160 --> 0:25:53.920
<v Speaker 1>can hang on to that position against the kind of

0:25:53.960 --> 0:25:56.640
<v Speaker 1>competition they're taking. And it just seems like the opportunities

0:25:56.680 --> 0:25:59.080
<v Speaker 1>there for Baltimore to leap frog a bunch of teams

0:25:59.119 --> 0:26:01.920
<v Speaker 1>here just based on that edual. When did you become

0:26:01.960 --> 0:26:06.920
<v Speaker 1>fascinated with numbers? You know, it was when I was

0:26:06.960 --> 0:26:09.119
<v Speaker 1>in first grade. It was the I could tell you

0:26:09.119 --> 0:26:11.520
<v Speaker 1>it was the nineteen eighty five eighty six NBA season.

0:26:11.560 --> 0:26:14.479
<v Speaker 1>I grew up outside Boston. I would go outside, get

0:26:14.520 --> 0:26:17.200
<v Speaker 1>the Boston Globe every morning and read the Celtics box scores.

0:26:17.200 --> 0:26:19.080
<v Speaker 1>And that was the best Celtics team ever. That was

0:26:19.359 --> 0:26:23.199
<v Speaker 1>the Big three Bird McHale Parish and Celtics box scores

0:26:23.280 --> 0:26:25.720
<v Speaker 1>that season. And then summer of eighty six was the

0:26:25.760 --> 0:26:27.880
<v Speaker 1>Red Sox that was the you know, with the Buckner year,

0:26:27.920 --> 0:26:29.280
<v Speaker 1>so the Red Sox were a thing that year. I

0:26:29.280 --> 0:26:32.280
<v Speaker 1>got into baseball box scores and you know that that

0:26:32.359 --> 0:26:33.960
<v Speaker 1>kind of started numbers for me. And then a couple

0:26:34.000 --> 0:26:37.200
<v Speaker 1>of years later, you know, kind of got into politics

0:26:37.200 --> 0:26:39.560
<v Speaker 1>really about middle school and kind of the numbers aspect

0:26:39.600 --> 0:26:42.360
<v Speaker 1>of it too, I guess. But the pressure on election

0:26:42.480 --> 0:26:44.760
<v Speaker 1>night is different. Like you can be on football night

0:26:44.760 --> 0:26:46.479
<v Speaker 1>in America and you might make a mistake and it's

0:26:46.520 --> 0:26:50.000
<v Speaker 1>football night in America. But election night, how much pressure

0:26:50.359 --> 0:26:54.560
<v Speaker 1>did you feel? Oh? Yeah, yeah, no, there's there's a

0:26:54.560 --> 0:26:56.920
<v Speaker 1>lot there. And this year was this year was more

0:26:57.000 --> 0:27:00.119
<v Speaker 1>intense because there's just this added variable this year of

0:27:00.960 --> 0:27:03.320
<v Speaker 1>people were voting by mail, and we knew the people

0:27:03.400 --> 0:27:06.159
<v Speaker 1>voting by mail, we're going to be overwhelmingly Biden. And

0:27:06.200 --> 0:27:08.040
<v Speaker 1>the people who were going out, you know and voting

0:27:08.080 --> 0:27:10.960
<v Speaker 1>in person at their precinct on election day, we knew

0:27:11.000 --> 0:27:12.639
<v Speaker 1>that was going to be pretty heavily Trump. And there

0:27:12.680 --> 0:27:14.679
<v Speaker 1>was just as variable as the numbers would come in

0:27:14.720 --> 0:27:17.120
<v Speaker 1>from a lot of places of Okay, are we looking

0:27:17.119 --> 0:27:19.119
<v Speaker 1>at votes that were cast by mail? Here? Are we

0:27:19.160 --> 0:27:21.920
<v Speaker 1>looking at votes that were cast in person? Today? Are

0:27:21.920 --> 0:27:24.200
<v Speaker 1>we looking at a mix of both, because that that

0:27:24.280 --> 0:27:26.679
<v Speaker 1>question and trying to be on top of that information

0:27:27.119 --> 0:27:29.399
<v Speaker 1>was key to understanding everything that was happening, and that

0:27:29.520 --> 0:27:32.280
<v Speaker 1>was just something there's no at a certain level, there's

0:27:32.280 --> 0:27:34.160
<v Speaker 1>no preparing for it because we've never had that before

0:27:34.200 --> 0:27:36.720
<v Speaker 1>in an election. And so yeah, I felt I always

0:27:36.760 --> 0:27:39.760
<v Speaker 1>feel a lot of anxiety before these things. This year

0:27:39.840 --> 0:27:42.879
<v Speaker 1>I felt ten times more than I have in the past.

0:27:43.359 --> 0:27:47.240
<v Speaker 1>How do you come off as unbiased? I mean, it's

0:27:47.320 --> 0:27:50.720
<v Speaker 1>it's probably a cliche, but the numbers don't lie, you know,

0:27:50.760 --> 0:27:53.280
<v Speaker 1>at a certain point, and you know, I can if

0:27:53.359 --> 0:27:55.920
<v Speaker 1>I if I have as it's true in sports, it's

0:27:55.920 --> 0:27:58.080
<v Speaker 1>it's true covering politics. If you're cheering for a team

0:27:58.119 --> 0:28:00.320
<v Speaker 1>in sports, you know, there's no denying. If they they

0:28:00.359 --> 0:28:02.760
<v Speaker 1>lose seventeen fourteen, there's no time left on the clock,

0:28:02.840 --> 0:28:04.520
<v Speaker 1>then they've lost the games over you got to talk

0:28:04.560 --> 0:28:06.880
<v Speaker 1>about the next game, you know. I think the same

0:28:06.960 --> 0:28:08.719
<v Speaker 1>is true, and you know, covering an election, it wouldn't

0:28:08.760 --> 0:28:11.240
<v Speaker 1>do me any good to be to be trying to,

0:28:11.480 --> 0:28:12.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, kind of push it to one side or

0:28:12.960 --> 0:28:14.440
<v Speaker 1>to push it to the other as the numbers come in,

0:28:14.480 --> 0:28:16.359
<v Speaker 1>because they are going to ultimately all come in and

0:28:16.400 --> 0:28:18.439
<v Speaker 1>we'll all be able to see what it is, what

0:28:18.560 --> 0:28:21.439
<v Speaker 1>happens if the touch screen goes down? What was the

0:28:21.480 --> 0:28:24.520
<v Speaker 1>game plan? It's it's happened before. It's it's how I

0:28:24.560 --> 0:28:27.480
<v Speaker 1>made the Tonight Show. For the first time in my life.

0:28:27.800 --> 0:28:30.800
<v Speaker 1>This this was in the twenty sixteen election. I was

0:28:30.840 --> 0:28:34.960
<v Speaker 1>doing a segment and the board went blank, completely blank,

0:28:35.000 --> 0:28:37.000
<v Speaker 1>but the writing function on it, you know, with my

0:28:37.040 --> 0:28:40.600
<v Speaker 1>finger still worked and the cameras still rolling. Nobody's telling

0:28:40.600 --> 0:28:42.480
<v Speaker 1>me to stop. So I'm like, I got to improvise here.

0:28:42.760 --> 0:28:44.480
<v Speaker 1>And we were talking about sort of you know, road

0:28:44.520 --> 0:28:46.280
<v Speaker 1>to two seventies. So I said, okay, I'll draw a

0:28:46.360 --> 0:28:49.680
<v Speaker 1>crude outline of the United States and I can kind

0:28:49.680 --> 0:28:51.400
<v Speaker 1>of talk about the different regions. So I tried to

0:28:51.440 --> 0:28:53.920
<v Speaker 1>draw the United States and it looked like part of

0:28:53.920 --> 0:28:55.280
<v Speaker 1>the It turned out it looked like part of the

0:28:55.280 --> 0:29:01.080
<v Speaker 1>Mayo Reproductive. Jimmy Fallon noticed it. That was my first

0:29:01.640 --> 0:29:04.480
<v Speaker 1>you say, overnight fame or something. That was my first

0:29:04.560 --> 0:29:07.400
<v Speaker 1>liste of it. Okay, but how do you how do

0:29:07.400 --> 0:29:09.720
<v Speaker 1>you react to something like that? I know you, I

0:29:09.720 --> 0:29:13.520
<v Speaker 1>think you made majored in TV and film at Boston University,

0:29:13.560 --> 0:29:18.560
<v Speaker 1>but you know, now I'm famous and I'm infamous, and

0:29:19.320 --> 0:29:22.680
<v Speaker 1>so how do you process that? Yeah? That it was

0:29:22.720 --> 0:29:24.800
<v Speaker 1>the thing about that was like I didn't even realize

0:29:24.800 --> 0:29:29.440
<v Speaker 1>it till things started popping up online. I really didn't

0:29:29.440 --> 0:29:30.800
<v Speaker 1>think I had done anything. And then it was one

0:29:30.800 --> 0:29:32.880
<v Speaker 1>of those was obvious. Once I saw it, I was like, okay,

0:29:32.920 --> 0:29:35.240
<v Speaker 1>I see how how everybody saw that? And of course

0:29:35.280 --> 0:29:38.800
<v Speaker 1>I was on with one of my colleagues here, Hallie Jackson,

0:29:38.800 --> 0:29:40.440
<v Speaker 1>and I think you know, she was standing next to

0:29:40.440 --> 0:29:41.680
<v Speaker 1>me the whole time, and you could see when you

0:29:41.680 --> 0:29:44.680
<v Speaker 1>look at the tape she recognized it. I start when

0:29:44.680 --> 0:29:46.800
<v Speaker 1>something like that happens, My view is it's like, just

0:29:46.920 --> 0:29:49.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, just just to own it. And you know,

0:29:49.040 --> 0:29:50.720
<v Speaker 1>I kind of stepped in it, and I'm not gonna

0:29:50.720 --> 0:29:52.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna make excuses for it. I'll just, you know,

0:29:52.760 --> 0:29:55.960
<v Speaker 1>I'll laugh along with everybody because it's kind of ridiculous. Well,

0:29:56.000 --> 0:29:58.720
<v Speaker 1>it's it's best to grab it and own it before

0:29:58.760 --> 0:30:01.720
<v Speaker 1>somebody else chose. I always tell people then, and this

0:30:01.760 --> 0:30:04.320
<v Speaker 1>has happened to me on numerous occasions. You make a mistake,

0:30:04.760 --> 0:30:07.840
<v Speaker 1>own it, and then they then you take away the

0:30:07.880 --> 0:30:10.000
<v Speaker 1>weapon that somebody else has when they're going to point

0:30:10.000 --> 0:30:12.400
<v Speaker 1>that out so you did the right thing where you

0:30:12.440 --> 0:30:15.680
<v Speaker 1>just go, hey, I did it. I move on. Yeah,

0:30:16.040 --> 0:30:17.680
<v Speaker 1>and I think you're right. And that's what I try

0:30:17.720 --> 0:30:19.440
<v Speaker 1>to do when when it's a little bit more serious

0:30:19.520 --> 0:30:23.360
<v Speaker 1>than a drawing like that. You know, we've gotten numbers wrong,

0:30:23.440 --> 0:30:25.680
<v Speaker 1>We've gotten you know, we'll get vote returns that come

0:30:25.720 --> 0:30:28.960
<v Speaker 1>in and it turns out there's corrections and they change completely.

0:30:29.080 --> 0:30:30.800
<v Speaker 1>And yeah, I do think that's key with the audience

0:30:30.760 --> 0:30:33.680
<v Speaker 1>system in terms of credibility. Um, don't try to pretend

0:30:33.720 --> 0:30:35.440
<v Speaker 1>if you if you made a fool yourself, don't try

0:30:35.440 --> 0:30:38.680
<v Speaker 1>to pretend you didn't based on the numbers, who would

0:30:38.680 --> 0:30:42.400
<v Speaker 1>you put in the Super Bowl? Can you do something

0:30:42.440 --> 0:30:45.680
<v Speaker 1>that far out of projection? It's I guess this would

0:30:45.680 --> 0:30:48.920
<v Speaker 1>be the Steve Cornaki gut numbers because I haven't seen

0:30:49.000 --> 0:30:51.400
<v Speaker 1>the updated you know, we've been our partners PF Pro

0:30:51.480 --> 0:30:54.320
<v Speaker 1>Football focused. I haven't seen our updated numbers after last night,

0:30:54.360 --> 0:30:57.120
<v Speaker 1>but just my my gut on it would be Kansas City,

0:30:57.400 --> 0:30:59.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, in the AFC, and I think, you know,

0:31:00.160 --> 0:31:04.000
<v Speaker 1>probably conventional wisdom at this point in the NFC, I'm

0:31:04.080 --> 0:31:08.160
<v Speaker 1>kind of like in the way green base plan right now. Okay, well, wait,

0:31:08.360 --> 0:31:10.920
<v Speaker 1>is this based off anything or is this this is

0:31:10.920 --> 0:31:13.760
<v Speaker 1>your gut this is this is my gut feeling, and

0:31:13.800 --> 0:31:16.160
<v Speaker 1>it's a sense of where the numbers. I haven't seen

0:31:16.200 --> 0:31:19.760
<v Speaker 1>the updates, but my guess is between Pittsburgh losing, you know,

0:31:19.840 --> 0:31:22.840
<v Speaker 1>Kansas City hanging out against Denver, my senses the numbers

0:31:22.840 --> 0:31:25.360
<v Speaker 1>are gonna ship pretty dramatically in the AFC. Here, give

0:31:25.400 --> 0:31:30.040
<v Speaker 1>me your favorite county in the United States. That's a

0:31:30.040 --> 0:31:35.200
<v Speaker 1>good question. Um my favorite county. Well, I got to

0:31:35.240 --> 0:31:39.520
<v Speaker 1>be partial to Middlesex County, Massachusetts, m where I was born. Um,

0:31:39.840 --> 0:31:42.800
<v Speaker 1>is our favorite name of a county that you loved?

0:31:42.880 --> 0:31:47.720
<v Speaker 1>Saying there's Otagomy County in Wisconsin, which has one of

0:31:47.720 --> 0:31:50.360
<v Speaker 1>the you know, the funny Wisconsin has the best county names.

0:31:50.840 --> 0:31:53.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, Um, there's always you know where an arbor

0:31:53.480 --> 0:31:56.240
<v Speaker 1>is in Michigan, washtona county. Um. You know, when you

0:31:56.280 --> 0:31:58.000
<v Speaker 1>get to the Upper Midwest, I think you get a

0:31:58.000 --> 0:32:00.240
<v Speaker 1>lot of those sort of Native American names, and you

0:32:00.240 --> 0:32:03.240
<v Speaker 1>get those are the ones where sometimes in my early

0:32:03.320 --> 0:32:06.040
<v Speaker 1>days of doing this, I would call them when I

0:32:06.080 --> 0:32:07.960
<v Speaker 1>wasn't sure in the pronunciation of the day of an election,

0:32:07.960 --> 0:32:09.720
<v Speaker 1>I would just call up like the county clerk's office,

0:32:09.760 --> 0:32:11.080
<v Speaker 1>just to see how they answered the phone, and that

0:32:11.080 --> 0:32:14.000
<v Speaker 1>would be my answer. Yeah, that's what's difficult is just

0:32:14.120 --> 0:32:17.240
<v Speaker 1>making sure because I always point out that there was

0:32:17.280 --> 0:32:21.000
<v Speaker 1>a movie that Thomas Crown Affair with Pierce Brosnan, and

0:32:21.080 --> 0:32:25.440
<v Speaker 1>they mentioned in the movie that somebody is from Lima, Ohio.

0:32:26.240 --> 0:32:30.480
<v Speaker 1>Well it's it's Lima, Ohio. And if you're from that area,

0:32:30.520 --> 0:32:32.880
<v Speaker 1>you're like, how could you screw that up? So you

0:32:33.000 --> 0:32:35.120
<v Speaker 1>have to make sure you get it right. We might

0:32:35.160 --> 0:32:37.800
<v Speaker 1>not know the county you're talking about, but the people

0:32:37.800 --> 0:32:41.280
<v Speaker 1>who live in that county know the county you're talking about.

0:32:41.920 --> 0:32:45.160
<v Speaker 1>The locals do, and some of them are very you know, counterintuitive.

0:32:45.240 --> 0:32:47.280
<v Speaker 1>You got in like the San Antonio is in Texas,

0:32:47.520 --> 0:32:50.560
<v Speaker 1>it looks like Bexar County. It's Bayer County b e

0:32:51.040 --> 0:32:53.760
<v Speaker 1>x A R. And it's Bayer County. Allen. Took me

0:32:53.760 --> 0:32:57.520
<v Speaker 1>a while to learn. Hey, congrats on the success there, Steve,

0:32:57.560 --> 0:33:00.000
<v Speaker 1>and hopefully we'll see you on football. Are you doing

0:33:00.080 --> 0:33:02.200
<v Speaker 1>up all night in America now the rest of the

0:33:02.240 --> 0:33:05.040
<v Speaker 1>regular season, Yeah, it sounds like we're going to do

0:33:05.040 --> 0:33:07.040
<v Speaker 1>it through the through the rest of the season, you know,

0:33:07.080 --> 0:33:09.360
<v Speaker 1>follow the playoff race. Look at the numbers change and

0:33:10.080 --> 0:33:12.680
<v Speaker 1>it's very excited for it. All right, just be careful

0:33:12.720 --> 0:33:15.680
<v Speaker 1>what you draw. Okay, yeah, thanks, I think I learned

0:33:15.720 --> 0:33:18.840
<v Speaker 1>my blessing there. Thank you, Steve. That's Steve Karnaki and

0:33:19.200 --> 0:33:22.120
<v Speaker 1>uh he of course works for NBC their national political

0:33:22.160 --> 0:33:26.960
<v Speaker 1>correspondent to MSNBC and he is the election map expert.

0:33:27.440 --> 0:33:30.320
<v Speaker 1>He was the star on election night depending on what

0:33:30.360 --> 0:33:33.960
<v Speaker 1>you were watching. Uh, if you if you stumbled upon

0:33:34.120 --> 0:33:36.800
<v Speaker 1>NBC News with their coverage, you couldn't take your eyes

0:33:36.840 --> 0:33:39.840
<v Speaker 1>off what he was doing. He was really he was

0:33:39.880 --> 0:33:43.120
<v Speaker 1>all in. He was fascinated. Yes, yes, time. He's like

0:33:43.160 --> 0:33:46.160
<v Speaker 1>a hero on social media. Just everybody loves that guy. Yeah,

0:33:46.200 --> 0:33:49.480
<v Speaker 1>on all the platforms. Well you need that guy like

0:33:49.680 --> 0:33:51.760
<v Speaker 1>you just want it broken down so you understand what

0:33:51.920 --> 0:33:55.440
<v Speaker 1>is going on. And you know Tim Russer, the late

0:33:55.480 --> 0:33:58.600
<v Speaker 1>Tim Russer, he was so great on TV. And you

0:33:58.640 --> 0:34:02.960
<v Speaker 1>know Tim was writing on you know, the whiteboard, and

0:34:03.040 --> 0:34:07.320
<v Speaker 1>now you have the technology that what Steve has. John King, Yes, Paul,

0:34:07.840 --> 0:34:09.920
<v Speaker 1>I wonder if Cornaki could get some sponsorships. You know

0:34:09.920 --> 0:34:12.280
<v Speaker 1>there's those untucked shirts, but what about a shirt company

0:34:12.440 --> 0:34:15.320
<v Speaker 1>where the sleeves are pre rolled up, called the cornaki.

0:34:15.800 --> 0:34:19.240
<v Speaker 1>It's gold gold. He gets his khakis from the gap,

0:34:19.719 --> 0:34:23.200
<v Speaker 1>by the way. That's one of those where you know,

0:34:23.280 --> 0:34:29.239
<v Speaker 1>you sort of accidentally stumble into celebrity celebrity hood and

0:34:29.400 --> 0:34:30.920
<v Speaker 1>it's not like you go, hey, I'm gonna be the

0:34:30.960 --> 0:34:33.600
<v Speaker 1>map expert and somebody's gonna go you're gonna be a

0:34:33.600 --> 0:34:37.799
<v Speaker 1>big deal. Yeah. Right, And then his first taste with

0:34:38.000 --> 0:34:41.359
<v Speaker 1>you know, national recognition, he draws a phallic symbol on

0:34:41.400 --> 0:34:45.880
<v Speaker 1>a touch screen. Yeah, and his co host there in

0:34:45.920 --> 0:34:51.240
<v Speaker 1>the moment, it knows exactly what She's like, Oh my god,

0:34:51.760 --> 0:34:54.040
<v Speaker 1>she can't. She's trying to hold back her laughter but

0:34:54.120 --> 0:34:57.239
<v Speaker 1>really can't. It's pretty hilarious because he's all in and

0:34:57.320 --> 0:35:00.560
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't realize what he's doing. And then she's like going,

0:35:00.760 --> 0:35:08.200
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, he doesn't know that he's drawing that. Yeah.

0:35:07.200 --> 0:35:10.640

0:35:15.120 --> 0:35:18.759
<v Speaker 1>of stats of the day. Also, I stumbled upon a

0:35:18.840 --> 0:35:24.040
<v Speaker 1>movie yesterday yesterday afternoon, Yesterday afternoon, and I was pleasantly surprised,

0:35:24.640 --> 0:35:28.319
<v Speaker 1>and I didn't know if this person could pull it off,

0:35:28.400 --> 0:35:30.040
<v Speaker 1>but they did. I'll have that for you coming up.

0:35:48.440 --> 0:35:52.240
<v Speaker 1>looking for something to watch. I'm not necessarily a binge watcher.

0:35:52.600 --> 0:35:54.760
<v Speaker 1>I like a little separation. I don't like to watch

0:35:54.880 --> 0:35:57.239
<v Speaker 1>eight episodes of something in a day, at least I

0:35:57.320 --> 0:36:01.680
<v Speaker 1>try not to. And stumbled upon this movie. It's called

0:36:01.760 --> 0:36:05.800
<v Speaker 1>Peppermint and it came out in twenty eighteen, and the

0:36:06.920 --> 0:36:12.279
<v Speaker 1>hero of the movie is Jennifer Garner and she is

0:36:12.960 --> 0:36:16.640
<v Speaker 1>a vigilante. Her family has been killed and she's going

0:36:16.719 --> 0:36:19.320
<v Speaker 1>after this drug cartel and she does it single handedly.

0:36:19.960 --> 0:36:22.960
<v Speaker 1>And I thought, okay, Now, I don't watch trailers. I

0:36:23.040 --> 0:36:26.040
<v Speaker 1>usually don't even read reviews on a movie. I'll just

0:36:26.160 --> 0:36:29.319
<v Speaker 1>if somebody recommends it. But I thought, all right, I

0:36:29.360 --> 0:36:33.000
<v Speaker 1>loved her an alias. I think she's very talented, and

0:36:33.040 --> 0:36:36.360
<v Speaker 1>I wondered if she could pull off this. I'm a

0:36:36.360 --> 0:36:39.279
<v Speaker 1>badass and she did. She did a great job in it.

0:36:39.360 --> 0:36:42.439
<v Speaker 1>So it's called Peppermint. And I don't know if there's

0:36:42.480 --> 0:36:46.440
<v Speaker 1>anybody else in the movie that you would know name wise,

0:36:46.520 --> 0:36:51.400
<v Speaker 1>but she is really really good. Yeah, pa, is it

0:36:51.440 --> 0:36:53.640
<v Speaker 1>a good movie? Or do you just really really like

0:36:53.800 --> 0:36:58.320
<v Speaker 1>Jennifer Garner? Which is understandable because we all do, okay,

0:36:59.360 --> 0:37:03.960
<v Speaker 1>the fair question. And I loved Jennifer Garner, that's true, yes,

0:37:04.440 --> 0:37:09.200
<v Speaker 1>and uh, but I thought that she you know, because

0:37:09.280 --> 0:37:12.440
<v Speaker 1>of that how I see her normally, you know, as

0:37:12.480 --> 0:37:15.239
<v Speaker 1>a mother of three and you know, you just go ok.

0:37:15.600 --> 0:37:17.520
<v Speaker 1>But then you see her in this movie and then

0:37:17.560 --> 0:37:21.720
<v Speaker 1>you forget that that's Jennifer Garner, mother of three kids.

0:37:22.160 --> 0:37:27.319
<v Speaker 1>She plays the role extremely well, and uh, she's she's tough,

0:37:27.640 --> 0:37:31.560
<v Speaker 1>she's good. Yeah, mclovin more realistic as a vigilante or

0:37:31.719 --> 0:37:34.280
<v Speaker 1>when she played a Browns executive in the movie Draft

0:37:34.360 --> 0:37:44.040
<v Speaker 1>das Um, I'm gonna say the vigilante like I had

0:37:44.040 --> 0:37:47.560
<v Speaker 1>a problem with uh the what is it Draft Day

0:37:47.640 --> 0:37:49.600
<v Speaker 1>or what was it called? Yeah? Yeah, Draft Day with

0:37:49.680 --> 0:37:53.239
<v Speaker 1>Kevin Coster. You know, there were a couple of things

0:37:53.239 --> 0:37:55.480
<v Speaker 1>that were a little loose in there, and they took

0:37:55.480 --> 0:37:58.080
<v Speaker 1>a running back too high. Yeah, that's the don't want

0:37:58.080 --> 0:38:01.000
<v Speaker 1>to draft. And look I made them steak where I said, yeah,

0:38:01.040 --> 0:38:04.560
<v Speaker 1>I'd take Saquon Barkley and uh, I made a mistake there, yam, Polly.

0:38:05.120 --> 0:38:07.479
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember when Andrew actually when you went around

0:38:07.520 --> 0:38:08.920
<v Speaker 1>to us and we each got to ask Kevin cost

0:38:09.040 --> 0:38:11.520
<v Speaker 1>Or a question. And Andrew's question was, what were you

0:38:11.560 --> 0:38:17.520
<v Speaker 1>thinking taking a running back that that's at the stage

0:38:17.560 --> 0:38:20.560
<v Speaker 1>for him cursing out PAULI. The next question, well, you

0:38:20.640 --> 0:38:23.479
<v Speaker 1>remember Dan. I think Jennifer Garner was on our show

0:38:23.680 --> 0:38:27.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm checking my notes twenty fourteen and the dan Nets

0:38:27.400 --> 0:38:30.160
<v Speaker 1>were absolutely smitten. She may be a one seed for

0:38:30.320 --> 0:38:34.200
<v Speaker 1>most smitten reaction on the show. Yeah, her and Jessica Alba.

0:38:34.800 --> 0:38:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, when she came in studio when we were

0:38:38.680 --> 0:38:41.880
<v Speaker 1>still at ESPN. And and remember she came in with

0:38:42.320 --> 0:38:46.720
<v Speaker 1>the commission Michael Chilis, Yeah, Michael Chick, but Michael checklist

0:38:46.840 --> 0:38:51.000
<v Speaker 1>was a little too protective, like it felt like, you know,

0:38:51.680 --> 0:38:54.520
<v Speaker 1>we're in the radio studio on the campus of ESPN.

0:38:54.920 --> 0:38:57.640
<v Speaker 1>Easy there, Mike easy commission Like he I thought he

0:38:57.800 --> 0:39:00.200
<v Speaker 1>was like this close to going commission on us, and

0:39:00.880 --> 0:39:04.040
<v Speaker 1>we were just having fun and we had Jen garner

0:39:04.160 --> 0:39:06.600
<v Speaker 1>On and I think we had her after the super

0:39:06.640 --> 0:39:10.040
<v Speaker 1>Bowl or close it was. It was playoff season and

0:39:10.160 --> 0:39:13.319
<v Speaker 1>I was asking her about does she watch football with Ben?

0:39:13.600 --> 0:39:16.800
<v Speaker 1>She was still with Ben Affleck and uh, you know,

0:39:16.960 --> 0:39:19.279
<v Speaker 1>she was just she was very playful, she was fun

0:39:19.800 --> 0:39:22.200
<v Speaker 1>and uh yeah, you couldn't help but love her. But

0:39:23.080 --> 0:39:25.160
<v Speaker 1>Peppermint is the name of the movie. In case you

0:39:25.239 --> 0:39:28.960
<v Speaker 1>guys are interested in that. I did try Marauders with

0:39:29.120 --> 0:39:35.520
<v Speaker 1>Bruce Willis. Yeah, and I you know, I usually look

0:39:35.600 --> 0:39:38.920
<v Speaker 1>Netflix had their top ten and then I go, oh, okay,

0:39:39.200 --> 0:39:43.239
<v Speaker 1>this looks interesting. Marauders I didn't. I didn't enjoy, but

0:39:43.600 --> 0:39:46.240
<v Speaker 1>Peppermint was good. Yeah, the club, what are you gonna

0:39:46.280 --> 0:39:48.839
<v Speaker 1>dive in? My wife keeps asking Wednesday, I'm gonna watch

0:39:48.880 --> 0:39:53.600
<v Speaker 1>The Crown. We need to know. I'm not interested in

0:39:53.680 --> 0:39:57.399
<v Speaker 1>those kind of movies. I'm just not like. I find

0:39:57.440 --> 0:40:02.880
<v Speaker 1>it also tragic with you know, Princess Diana, and it

0:40:03.040 --> 0:40:06.200
<v Speaker 1>just feels like, you know, people hold on. They make

0:40:06.200 --> 0:40:09.040
<v Speaker 1>a living off of this, covering the royals and everything

0:40:09.080 --> 0:40:10.960
<v Speaker 1>that goes along with it. I don't know, I find

0:40:11.000 --> 0:40:15.640
<v Speaker 1>it really sad what kind of life she had, how

0:40:15.719 --> 0:40:19.520
<v Speaker 1>she was living her life after she got divorced. You know,

0:40:19.680 --> 0:40:22.399
<v Speaker 1>her sons don't get along right now. I mean there's

0:40:22.480 --> 0:40:26.120
<v Speaker 1>there's I just find it sad, you know, and I

0:40:26.200 --> 0:40:30.879
<v Speaker 1>don't I don't find any enjoyment watching something like that. Yeah. Yeah,

0:40:30.960 --> 0:40:33.239
<v Speaker 1>The Crown. I tried to do the first season but

0:40:33.400 --> 0:40:35.640
<v Speaker 1>could never make it through. I got about I don't know,

0:40:35.719 --> 0:40:38.360
<v Speaker 1>three or four episodes and it's just too slow. But

0:40:38.520 --> 0:40:40.640
<v Speaker 1>season four has been all right. If you're going to

0:40:40.680 --> 0:40:43.160
<v Speaker 1>watch a season, that's the one to watch for sure. Yeah,

0:40:43.440 --> 0:40:48.120
<v Speaker 1>I heard. And then now they want the producer director

0:40:48.200 --> 0:40:54.640
<v Speaker 1>to put a disclaimer there to say that this is fiction. Yeah, Seed,

0:40:55.400 --> 0:40:59.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm just about to finish up Ted Lasso. Oh okay,

0:41:00.000 --> 0:41:02.879
<v Speaker 1>it''s pretty good. It's it's hockey for sure, But damn

0:41:03.000 --> 0:41:05.680
<v Speaker 1>is it funny? Like I'm really I enjoyed it way

0:41:05.760 --> 0:41:09.160
<v Speaker 1>more than I thought I was gonna. Yes, Paul, I'm

0:41:09.200 --> 0:41:12.000
<v Speaker 1>guessing there's very little nudity in The Crown, which leaves

0:41:12.000 --> 0:41:14.279
<v Speaker 1>Todd out. I mean he's not big on Yeah, my

0:41:14.800 --> 0:41:17.920
<v Speaker 1>wife's watching that. That doesn't do anything monarchy. Do you

0:41:18.040 --> 0:41:22.080
<v Speaker 1>watch any shows that are now I'll watch old episode

0:41:22.120 --> 0:41:24.040
<v Speaker 1>of Dark Angel just no, No, that's when she kind

0:41:24.040 --> 0:41:26.080
<v Speaker 1>of came on the scene. No, I'm saying now, I'm

0:41:26.120 --> 0:41:29.319
<v Speaker 1>saying now, like, is there is there a show? Now

0:41:30.000 --> 0:41:32.680
<v Speaker 1>there's any show based for tweeters? Toad's in No, I

0:41:32.800 --> 0:41:34.600
<v Speaker 1>like I like shows like The Goldbergs and things like that.

0:41:34.680 --> 0:41:36.719
<v Speaker 1>I want to laugh. I don't want anything too. I'll watch,

0:41:37.040 --> 0:41:39.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, the Law and Order shows and things like that.

0:41:40.640 --> 0:41:43.239
<v Speaker 1>But because nothing makes you laugh like Law and Order. No,

0:41:43.280 --> 0:41:44.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying, like when I'm in the mood for when

0:41:44.640 --> 0:41:46.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm something in the mood for something more serious, I'll

0:41:46.040 --> 0:41:49.319
<v Speaker 1>watched you know, Dateline NBC. I like that on Friday Night,

0:41:49.360 --> 0:41:52.040
<v Speaker 1>the Murder Mysteries, even though it kind of ends sadly

0:41:52.120 --> 0:41:55.480
<v Speaker 1>every week it's based on someone being killed, but it's

0:41:55.600 --> 0:41:58.319
<v Speaker 1>interesting the way they tell the story of how they

0:41:58.360 --> 0:42:01.040
<v Speaker 1>found the evidence and who didn't didn't do it. But yeah,

0:42:01.080 --> 0:42:02.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm kind of living in the seventies and eighties. I

0:42:02.719 --> 0:42:05.000
<v Speaker 1>don't do the binge watching thing where there's something that

0:42:05.080 --> 0:42:06.759
<v Speaker 1>I like that much that I want to watch. Ed
