1 00:00:04,428 --> 00:00:06,668 Speaker 1: Good Morning Football is the production of the NFL in 2 00:00:06,748 --> 00:00:19,628 Speaker 1: partnership with iHeartRadio. 3 00:00:22,308 --> 00:00:25,388 Speaker 2: Good mom, My Mom. 4 00:00:25,948 --> 00:00:26,868 Speaker 3: Welcome to GMF. 5 00:00:27,108 --> 00:00:30,068 Speaker 4: I'm Sarah Walsh, joined by Kyle Brandt there in New York, 6 00:00:30,108 --> 00:00:32,508 Speaker 4: and unfortunately we start with some sad news from the 7 00:00:32,588 --> 00:00:36,268 Speaker 4: NFL world this morning, as Colts owner Jim Ursa passed 8 00:00:36,268 --> 00:00:37,148 Speaker 4: away yesterday. 9 00:00:37,628 --> 00:00:41,188 Speaker 5: Kyle, he did, Sarah and the Colts announced it, of 10 00:00:41,228 --> 00:00:44,588 Speaker 5: course officially, and he passed away in his sleep at 11 00:00:44,628 --> 00:00:46,588 Speaker 5: the age of sixty five, and for those of us 12 00:00:46,588 --> 00:00:49,148 Speaker 5: who have watched them for decades, was incredibly sad news. 13 00:00:49,628 --> 00:00:52,188 Speaker 5: I only knew Jim Mersay from Afar, but I've always 14 00:00:52,188 --> 00:00:53,428 Speaker 5: felt that Jim Mersay. 15 00:00:53,228 --> 00:00:54,908 Speaker 6: Was unique among owners. 16 00:00:55,628 --> 00:00:58,428 Speaker 5: He became the youngest owner at thirty seven years old, 17 00:00:58,548 --> 00:01:02,668 Speaker 5: and he had this image of the hippie, flower child, 18 00:01:02,788 --> 00:01:05,668 Speaker 5: rock star owner. I think Jim Irsay was the closest 19 00:01:05,668 --> 00:01:08,748 Speaker 5: thing we had to Tony Stark in the NFL. I 20 00:01:08,748 --> 00:01:11,868 Speaker 5: also think that many owners, who may even be successful 21 00:01:11,868 --> 00:01:15,468 Speaker 5: in football, or maybe even be beloved in their communities, 22 00:01:15,828 --> 00:01:19,068 Speaker 5: are not relatable to fans, because how could they be 23 00:01:19,148 --> 00:01:21,388 Speaker 5: their lives are so different. But I think in a way, 24 00:01:21,468 --> 00:01:23,988 Speaker 5: Jim Rsay was and I think it was because of 25 00:01:24,028 --> 00:01:27,868 Speaker 5: his flaws, because of his demons. Jim Irsay was not 26 00:01:28,228 --> 00:01:31,868 Speaker 5: just a suit in a suite. He'd been through some stuff, 27 00:01:31,908 --> 00:01:36,108 Speaker 5: and again that's relatable, and I think despite all he endured, 28 00:01:36,388 --> 00:01:40,148 Speaker 5: I think parts of Jim Irsay were really really cool. 29 00:01:40,908 --> 00:01:43,148 Speaker 6: Now. Sure, he drafted Peyton Manning. 30 00:01:43,668 --> 00:01:48,188 Speaker 5: He also owned Kurt Cobain's guitar from smells like teen Spirit. 31 00:01:48,908 --> 00:01:53,788 Speaker 5: He also owned Secretariat Saddle And I think for some 32 00:01:53,868 --> 00:01:58,428 Speaker 5: of us we daydream that if we were billionaires, what 33 00:01:58,548 --> 00:02:01,708 Speaker 5: would we do with our lives? Well, how about own 34 00:02:01,748 --> 00:02:04,548 Speaker 5: an NFL team that we passed down to our children 35 00:02:05,148 --> 00:02:09,148 Speaker 5: by cool expensive stuff. Maybe get in some trouble here 36 00:02:09,148 --> 00:02:13,628 Speaker 5: and there, and just watch and love football all the time. 37 00:02:13,868 --> 00:02:18,788 Speaker 5: Jim Irsay was an original, imperfect, super Bowl winning owner 38 00:02:19,348 --> 00:02:22,228 Speaker 5: and I will miss him very much in our league, Srea. 39 00:02:22,908 --> 00:02:26,508 Speaker 4: He was also the definition of Colts football. Kylie took 40 00:02:26,548 --> 00:02:29,948 Speaker 4: over the team from his father at thirty seven years old. 41 00:02:29,988 --> 00:02:31,988 Speaker 4: At that time, that made him the youngest owner in 42 00:02:32,028 --> 00:02:35,588 Speaker 4: the NFL. That was after previously serving as their general manager, 43 00:02:35,988 --> 00:02:40,068 Speaker 4: drafted a franchise changing quarterback and Peyton Manning, and through 44 00:02:40,108 --> 00:02:44,788 Speaker 4: his leadership, Ursay helped Indianapolis bring home its only Lombardi Trophy, 45 00:02:45,188 --> 00:02:47,548 Speaker 4: and he did so. Kyle was just speaking about this 46 00:02:47,668 --> 00:02:51,548 Speaker 4: while continually striving to overcome personal adversity. 47 00:02:55,228 --> 00:02:59,948 Speaker 7: The Indianapolis Colts football revival occurred under the guidance of 48 00:03:00,068 --> 00:03:04,388 Speaker 7: Jim Ursay, a man who overcame obstacles of his own. 49 00:03:04,868 --> 00:03:07,908 Speaker 8: I had a tough childhood. I mean, you know, I 50 00:03:08,068 --> 00:03:10,628 Speaker 8: lost both my brother and sister. You know, my sister 51 00:03:10,748 --> 00:03:13,348 Speaker 8: died in the car crash when I was eleven. A 52 00:03:13,388 --> 00:03:17,788 Speaker 8: state trooper came knocking on the door. And you know, 53 00:03:17,868 --> 00:03:22,588 Speaker 8: your sister's dad, you know, and your brother is severely 54 00:03:22,628 --> 00:03:26,148 Speaker 8: handicapped at birth and eventually dies at an early age. 55 00:03:26,548 --> 00:03:29,148 Speaker 8: And so you know, out a three year the only 56 00:03:29,188 --> 00:03:32,788 Speaker 8: one left. My dad died of alcoholism. My grandfather died 57 00:03:32,828 --> 00:03:33,828 Speaker 8: of alcoholism. 58 00:03:34,228 --> 00:03:38,948 Speaker 7: Ers would struggle against similar substance dependencies throughout much of 59 00:03:38,988 --> 00:03:42,388 Speaker 7: his life, often at a heavy price. But in the 60 00:03:42,468 --> 00:03:46,228 Speaker 7: early days of Colt's football in the Hoosier State, Jim 61 00:03:46,348 --> 00:03:49,388 Speaker 7: was very much in control of his father's team as 62 00:03:49,428 --> 00:03:53,228 Speaker 7: it's youthfull general manager. At the age of twenty seven, 63 00:03:53,388 --> 00:03:57,308 Speaker 7: he put together a ten player blockbuster deal that brought 64 00:03:57,308 --> 00:04:01,468 Speaker 7: in star running back Eric Dickerson, a move that ended 65 00:04:01,628 --> 00:04:03,988 Speaker 7: a decade of futility Dickerson. 66 00:04:03,668 --> 00:04:05,548 Speaker 6: Trying to get outside up to the thirty eighth at 67 00:04:05,548 --> 00:04:06,708 Speaker 6: the twenty five twenty. 68 00:04:09,068 --> 00:04:11,308 Speaker 7: They did at thirty four yards per. 69 00:04:12,148 --> 00:04:14,388 Speaker 6: The Colts went in twenty four to six that head 70 00:04:14,428 --> 00:04:16,668 Speaker 6: to the playoff for the first time in ten years. 71 00:04:16,988 --> 00:04:18,428 Speaker 6: From last Rice to Park. 72 00:04:20,148 --> 00:04:23,988 Speaker 7: A decade later, Ersay made the draft choice that turned 73 00:04:23,988 --> 00:04:26,748 Speaker 7: the Colts into an NFL powerhouse. 74 00:04:28,228 --> 00:04:31,548 Speaker 2: With the first pick in the draft, the Indianapolis Colts 75 00:04:31,588 --> 00:04:35,908 Speaker 2: select quarterback University of Tennessee Peyton Manna. 76 00:04:38,868 --> 00:04:43,108 Speaker 7: From this began a golden era of Colts football.

His father, Robert 109 00:06:33,508 --> 00:06:36,668 Speaker 10: or Say was owning the team, but basically Jim ran 110 00:06:36,748 --> 00:06:38,668 Speaker 10: the team.

He 112 00:06:42,508 --> 00:06:44,468 Speaker 10: was the one that made the trade for Eric Dickerson, 113 00:06:44,508 --> 00:06:48,348 Speaker 10: which really helped to transform the Indianapolis Colts and really 114 00:06:49,108 --> 00:06:52,588 Speaker 10: even before Peyton Manning was drafted, begin the transformation of 115 00:06:52,628 --> 00:06:54,788 Speaker 10: a town that was largely at this time of the 116 00:06:54,868 --> 00:06:57,228 Speaker 10: year it was a race cart Down was a college 117 00:06:57,268 --> 00:07:00,308 Speaker 10: basketball town.

If you remember the Indianapolis Colts 178 00:09:51,388 --> 00:09:53,788 Speaker 5: and the guy signing your checks is up on stage, 179 00:09:53,908 --> 00:09:56,388 Speaker 5: rocking and rolling, and he is truly a rock star 180 00:09:56,428 --> 00:09:57,188 Speaker 5: in and of himself. 181 00:09:57,348 --> 00:09:58,708 Speaker 6: What is that like as a player. 182 00:09:59,948 --> 00:10:03,308 Speaker 10: It's cool. I think it's cool. I mean, you mentioned 183 00:10:03,308 --> 00:10:07,628 Speaker 10: at the very outsetick. He's very relatable guy with his flaws. 184 00:10:07,908 --> 00:10:09,908 Speaker 10: We were well aware of him and some of the 185 00:10:09,948 --> 00:10:10,908 Speaker 10: issues that he had. 186 00:10:11,508 --> 00:10:13,548 Speaker 9: We knew that. We knew that about his father as well. 187 00:10:14,228 --> 00:10:17,628 Speaker 10: But I think at the same time, all he wanted 188 00:10:17,668 --> 00:10:20,868 Speaker 10: to do, honestly, Kyle, is to make the Indianapolis Colts 189 00:10:20,948 --> 00:10:22,308 Speaker 10: a world class organization. 190 00:10:22,788 --> 00:10:24,828 Speaker 9: And you knew as a player, and this is any 191 00:10:24,868 --> 00:10:25,748 Speaker 9: team in the league. 192 00:10:25,948 --> 00:10:28,748 Speaker 10: You just want to know that your owner cares as 193 00:10:28,828 --> 00:10:30,948 Speaker 10: much about the game and the team as you want 194 00:10:30,988 --> 00:10:33,908 Speaker 10: him to, and he's going to provide anything that you 195 00:10:34,068 --> 00:10:36,388 Speaker 10: need to be the best that you very can be. 196 00:10:36,708 --> 00:10:39,348 Speaker 9: I was in South Florida. I was in Miami that night. 197 00:10:39,308 --> 00:10:42,468 Speaker 10: Super Bowl forty one, Kyle with Prince on stage the 198 00:10:43,068 --> 00:10:46,388 Speaker 10: downpour when the coach won that championship. And I know 199 00:10:46,508 --> 00:10:49,068 Speaker 10: that I didn't see Jim that night, but I know 200 00:10:49,188 --> 00:10:52,828 Speaker 10: that night this is what is the culmination of his dream. 201 00:10:52,908 --> 00:10:56,148 Speaker 10: Because you know when they packed up from Baltimore and 202 00:10:56,268 --> 00:10:58,788 Speaker 10: came to Indy in nineteen eighty. 203 00:10:58,508 --> 00:11:02,268 Speaker 9: Four, cloaked in secrecy. I mean, nobody knew that they. 204 00:11:02,148 --> 00:11:05,428 Speaker 10: Could be transformed into a world class organation. And it 205 00:11:05,548 --> 00:11:08,308 Speaker 10: was all because of that man and his vision. Right there, Kyle, 206 00:11:08,588 --> 00:11:10,988 Speaker 10: that allowed that to happen and for that to live 207 00:11:11,028 --> 00:11:14,308 Speaker 10: on in a sound like Indianapolis. 208 00:11:13,788 --> 00:11:16,308 Speaker 9: Where you know, you compete for Super Bowls. 209 00:11:16,028 --> 00:11:19,028 Speaker 10: Now with the likes of Peyton Manning Andrew Luckin, you 210 00:11:19,068 --> 00:11:20,988 Speaker 10: know what they have going on right now there. 211 00:11:22,668 --> 00:11:25,068 Speaker 5: I got to think, Baldi that if he's in the 212 00:11:25,108 --> 00:11:29,468 Speaker 5: Super Bowl and he's watching Peyton Manning win and Prince 213 00:11:29,748 --> 00:11:32,188 Speaker 5: is rocking out at halftime, that must have been his 214 00:11:32,268 --> 00:11:33,708 Speaker 5: absolute apex this heaven. 215 00:11:34,268 --> 00:11:37,508 Speaker 10: I got to think, right Kyle, that you know, while 216 00:11:37,988 --> 00:11:41,868 Speaker 10: Princess sing in Purple Rain, that there's some good fist 217 00:11:41,908 --> 00:11:43,468 Speaker 10: bumps in the air of that day. 218 00:11:43,548 --> 00:11:45,708 Speaker 9: There's some real good rocking going on. 219 00:11:46,308 --> 00:11:49,908 Speaker 10: As it's still one of the greatest halftime performances that 220 00:11:49,948 --> 00:11:52,308 Speaker 10: any of us have ever seen during Super Bowls. 221 00:11:53,788 --> 00:11:56,948 Speaker 4: You know, Kyle used the word relatable and baldy, you 222 00:11:56,988 --> 00:12:00,588 Speaker 4: know this just that he would talk to anyone and everyone, 223 00:12:00,868 --> 00:12:03,308 Speaker 4: and it was not that conservative button done didn't have 224 00:12:03,348 --> 00:12:04,788 Speaker 4: time for you.

That's not 390 00:19:02,668 --> 00:19:04,788 Speaker 5: exactly the same thing as Jalen Hurts. That's like the 391 00:19:04,868 --> 00:19:07,668 Speaker 5: Kirkland brand toush push. Come on, dude, no. 392 00:19:07,508 --> 00:19:09,908 Speaker 12: No, that's definitely different because we know Jalen Hurst is 393 00:19:09,908 --> 00:19:13,828 Speaker 12: squat like five hundred pounds, right, Yeah, he's a big quarterback. 394 00:19:13,908 --> 00:19:17,028 Speaker 6: So but you see, not a lot.

The league 423 00:20:25,268 --> 00:20:27,948 Speaker 5: didn't ban the Toush push, so the Bucks did it themselves. 424 00:20:28,108 --> 00:20:31,188 Speaker 5: They're batting down the hatches, they're backing down, whatever you 425 00:20:31,188 --> 00:20:33,868 Speaker 5: want to call it. They are ready to stop this thing, 426 00:20:34,308 --> 00:20:36,788 Speaker 5: unlike the Packers, who are now the bullseye of the 427 00:20:36,788 --> 00:20:39,388 Speaker 5: Toush push and who play the Eagles week ten at 428 00:20:39,428 --> 00:20:42,748 Speaker 5: Lambo National Television, and I hope the Eagles run it 429 00:20:42,908 --> 00:20:45,588 Speaker 5: fifty times and the only time they don't run is 430 00:20:45,628 --> 00:20:47,028 Speaker 5: when they get to the goal line and headed to 431 00:20:47,068 --> 00:20:49,508 Speaker 5: their new running back aj Dillon, who's an ex Packer 432 00:20:49,748 --> 00:20:51,548 Speaker 5: that's going to be the one to watch now because 433 00:20:51,588 --> 00:20:51,828 Speaker 5: of this. 434 00:20:52,148 --> 00:20:54,468 Speaker 2: And what the heck is wrong with Kirkland brand, Kyle, 435 00:20:54,628 --> 00:20:58,668 Speaker 2: that's the brand that I grew up with. But go ahead, 436 00:20:58,708 --> 00:20:59,788 Speaker 2: it's a quality brand. 437 00:21:00,068 --> 00:21:01,948 Speaker 6: It's a quality brand.

So I think it's 491 00:23:13,148 --> 00:23:16,268 Speaker 12: perfect time and for you know, for the Eagles, if 492 00:23:16,268 --> 00:23:18,908 Speaker 12: they can continue to build that dynasty, then maybe they 493 00:23:18,908 --> 00:23:21,908 Speaker 12: can be the villain. But right now, that top dog 494 00:23:21,988 --> 00:23:25,108 Speaker 12: still reigns and Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid and They're 495 00:23:25,148 --> 00:23:26,668 Speaker 12: still the most hated team in the NFL. 496 00:23:26,708 --> 00:23:28,828 Speaker 2: Do you if they get to the Super Bowl and 497 00:23:28,868 --> 00:23:30,428 Speaker 2: lose again, is the dynasty over? 498 00:23:31,868 --> 00:23:33,108 Speaker 3: I think everyone will say that it is. 499 00:23:33,228 --> 00:23:33,428 Speaker 6: Yeah. 500 00:23:33,508 --> 00:23:36,228 Speaker 12: Yeah, I think some people say that the dynasty's over now, 501 00:23:36,308 --> 00:23:37,788 Speaker 12: you know, but I don't think so. As long as 502 00:23:37,828 --> 00:23:39,828 Speaker 12: you got fifteen over there, you still got a chance 503 00:23:39,868 --> 00:23:41,188 Speaker 12: every year to win a championship. 504 00:23:41,348 --> 00:23:43,228 Speaker 2: Were you surprised by the Super Bowl result? 505 00:23:43,708 --> 00:23:43,868 Speaker 6: Now? 506 00:23:44,068 --> 00:23:46,508 Speaker 12: I wasn't surprised because the Eagles have some dogs they have. 507 00:23:46,828 --> 00:23:50,588 Speaker 12: It was a bad fit versus Casey, with Casey's old 508 00:23:50,588 --> 00:23:53,228 Speaker 12: line struggling the past year and they had to move. 509 00:23:53,268 --> 00:23:54,788 Speaker 12: They had a lot of backups on that old line, 510 00:23:54,788 --> 00:23:58,188 Speaker 12: and Eagles were tough up front and their secondary was stout. 511 00:23:58,268 --> 00:24:00,468 Speaker 12: So I thought it was a great matchup and the 512 00:24:00,508 --> 00:24:02,308 Speaker 12: Eagles should have been favored that game. 513 00:24:03,068 --> 00:24:03,668 Speaker 6: Kyle, what do you got? 514 00:24:03,708 --> 00:24:04,308 Speaker 3: Who's your villain? 515 00:24:05,908 --> 00:24:08,948 Speaker 6: Well? I think actually I think Joel raises. 516 00:24:08,988 --> 00:24:12,428 Speaker 5: An interesting question is like, is the Chiefs dynasty still alive? 517 00:24:12,508 --> 00:24:14,428 Speaker 5: Or did the Eagles end it? I mean they got 518 00:24:14,468 --> 00:24:16,268 Speaker 5: They didn't just lose a super Bowl. We saw Brady 519 00:24:16,308 --> 00:24:18,308 Speaker 5: lose super bowls. They got thumped. They did not show 520 00:24:18,388 --> 00:24:19,948 Speaker 5: up for that Super Bowl. They didn't belong on the. 521 00:24:19,908 --> 00:24:22,468 Speaker 6: Field that day. During the dynasties we've. 522 00:24:22,268 --> 00:24:25,348 Speaker 5: Seen, you know, we know Montana never lost one, Brady 523 00:24:25,388 --> 00:24:27,388 Speaker 5: lost them, but in every single one, it was this 524 00:24:27,508 --> 00:24:28,228 Speaker 5: dramatic thing. 525 00:24:28,268 --> 00:24:31,068 Speaker 6: And then the one they actually were getting thumped, they 526 00:24:31,108 --> 00:24:33,788 Speaker 6: came back from twenty eight to three. So is the 527 00:24:33,908 --> 00:24:36,628 Speaker 6: Chiefs dynasty still alive or did the Eagles break it? 528 00:24:36,708 --> 00:24:39,788 Speaker 5: I think I don't think a dynasty survived that type 529 00:24:39,788 --> 00:24:42,868 Speaker 5: of ass whooping. And as far as villainry, I think 530 00:24:42,908 --> 00:24:46,148 Speaker 5: that I think that the Eagles ended the villains. I 531 00:24:46,148 --> 00:24:47,868 Speaker 5: think the Chiefs were the villains in the eyes of 532 00:24:47,948 --> 00:24:49,348 Speaker 5: so many and the Eagles became. 533 00:24:49,148 --> 00:24:50,348 Speaker 6: Heroes for destroying them. 534 00:24:50,668 --> 00:24:52,388 Speaker 5: Look forward to this season, though, it's going to be 535 00:24:52,428 --> 00:24:55,388 Speaker 5: different because I look to Nick Sirianni, who looks like 536 00:24:55,428 --> 00:24:58,828 Speaker 5: a villain. He reminds me of actually Joel's performance and 537 00:24:58,868 --> 00:25:01,028 Speaker 5: the bear like some people just want to punch through 538 00:25:01,028 --> 00:25:04,068 Speaker 5: the screen and destroy him. But Nick Sirianni now has 539 00:25:04,108 --> 00:25:07,028 Speaker 5: a pause where they tried to take his weapon from him. 540 00:25:07,068 --> 00:25:09,348 Speaker 5: And let's not forget Nick Siriani also has Bleep you 541 00:25:09,508 --> 00:25:10,988 Speaker 5: money now on the sideline. 542 00:25:11,068 --> 00:25:11,908 Speaker 6: He has job. 543 00:25:11,748 --> 00:25:14,148 Speaker 5: Security, he has insecurity with the play. 544 00:25:14,228 --> 00:25:16,668 Speaker 6: He has money. Nick Sirianni is going to be. 545 00:25:16,588 --> 00:25:18,948 Speaker 5: An absolute feast of content next year. And if it 546 00:25:19,028 --> 00:25:20,828 Speaker 5: goes to making him a villain, I don't think he 547 00:25:20,868 --> 00:25:21,468 Speaker 5: gives a damn. 548 00:25:21,868 --> 00:25:25,148 Speaker 2: I think it's it's hard to You said push, push 549 00:25:25,348 --> 00:25:29,148 Speaker 2: a lot, then you said ass whooping, and I thought, well, 550 00:25:29,148 --> 00:25:32,188 Speaker 2: we can say ass whooping, and then you said bleep, 551 00:25:32,388 --> 00:25:35,068 Speaker 2: So I don't It's hard to keep tracking. I'm gonna 552 00:25:35,188 --> 00:25:38,908 Speaker 2: believe me. I'm gonna play it safe. I will say. 553 00:25:38,948 --> 00:25:41,468 Speaker 2: You know who won the Super Bowl was whoever sold 554 00:25:41,868 --> 00:25:45,788 Speaker 2: Eagles tickets to the Eagles fans, because it was it 555 00:25:45,828 --> 00:25:48,268 Speaker 2: was like a home game. And I was at that game, 556 00:25:48,308 --> 00:25:51,588 Speaker 2: and every time anything happened good for the Eagles, it 557 00:25:51,668 --> 00:25:54,348 Speaker 2: was it was like they had scored and that they 558 00:25:54,348 --> 00:25:57,788 Speaker 2: were they were so far ahead in that way, it 559 00:25:57,828 --> 00:26:00,068 Speaker 2: was it was something to see. And then I don't 560 00:26:00,108 --> 00:26:01,708 Speaker 2: know if you knew this. Some of them were drinking. 561 00:26:02,188 --> 00:26:04,268 Speaker 3: Some of them were drinking. But here's some of that. 562 00:26:05,108 --> 00:26:07,308 Speaker 4: A lot of that, I think, and just walking around 563 00:26:07,308 --> 00:26:10,068 Speaker 4: New Orleans has to be fatigued, right because not everybody 564 00:26:10,108 --> 00:26:13,348 Speaker 4: has money to go to the Super Bowl. It's really expensive, 565 00:26:13,428 --> 00:26:15,148 Speaker 4: like the hotels, the tickets, all of it. 566 00:26:15,228 --> 00:26:16,588 Speaker 3: Right, So if you're. 567 00:26:16,468 --> 00:26:17,988 Speaker 4: So excited to go and see your team and you 568 00:26:18,628 --> 00:26:20,548 Speaker 4: spend all this money and you go see Kansas City, 569 00:26:20,708 --> 00:26:23,148 Speaker 4: when like that's your once in a life For a 570 00:26:23,148 --> 00:26:25,228 Speaker 4: lot of people, this is their once in a lifetime 571 00:26:25,348 --> 00:26:28,388 Speaker 4: family event. Well, Kansas City won, and then they won 572 00:26:28,508 --> 00:26:31,788 Speaker 4: and then they won, and so I remember walking around thinking, 573 00:26:32,228 --> 00:26:34,148 Speaker 4: when you've won that much, I mean, are you is 574 00:26:34,148 --> 00:26:36,628 Speaker 4: it is special? Look, you always want your team to win, 575 00:26:36,668 --> 00:26:38,748 Speaker 4: But if you went a year ago and you won 576 00:26:38,748 --> 00:26:39,708 Speaker 4: the Super Bowl. 577 00:26:39,508 --> 00:26:40,788 Speaker 3: Are you going to go again? 578 00:26:40,908 --> 00:26:43,148 Speaker 4: I mean if money is no object, But that's just 579 00:26:43,188 --> 00:26:45,908 Speaker 4: not the reality. So that was one thing, was always 580 00:26:45,908 --> 00:26:49,508 Speaker 4: walking around thinking just how heavily that was an Eagles crowd. 581 00:26:49,708 --> 00:26:52,228 Speaker 4: And then the other thing, when we're talking villains, are 582 00:26:52,268 --> 00:26:53,708 Speaker 4: the Eagles of the villain? I mean, I think so 583 00:26:53,748 --> 00:26:56,628 Speaker 4: many people wanted to see Jalen Hurt so badly win 584 00:26:56,628 --> 00:26:58,508 Speaker 4: a super Bowl for the way that they didn't win 585 00:26:58,548 --> 00:27:00,788 Speaker 4: one before and the way that they had lost one, 586 00:27:00,908 --> 00:27:02,668 Speaker 4: And so yeah, I don't think of them as the 587 00:27:02,748 --> 00:27:05,468 Speaker 4: villains because I think so many people were rooting for Jalen, 588 00:27:05,708 --> 00:27:08,708 Speaker 4: people that had no interest in either team in terms 589 00:27:08,708 --> 00:27:09,748 Speaker 4: of like they're not part of. 590 00:27:09,708 --> 00:27:10,468 Speaker 3: That fan base. 591 00:27:10,828 --> 00:27:12,708 Speaker 4: You wanted to see this guy win his first one, 592 00:27:12,868 --> 00:27:14,788 Speaker 4: So no, I don't think he overnight then becomes the 593 00:27:14,868 --> 00:27:16,748 Speaker 4: villain I would. I'm I'm on Chris's side. I think 594 00:27:16,788 --> 00:27:17,428 Speaker 4: the Chiefs are still. 595 00:27:18,068 --> 00:27:19,348 Speaker 3: Here's the Eagles response. 596 00:27:19,628 --> 00:27:20,948 Speaker 2: That's a really good response. 597 00:27:21,108 --> 00:27:23,228 Speaker 4: Push on and it's simple, effective. 598 00:27:23,428 --> 00:27:27,748 Speaker 2: And this it's the asymmetric, it's perfect, and it's the packers. 599 00:27:27,908 --> 00:27:29,548 Speaker 3: Packers, you know what they're doing. 600 00:27:30,148 --> 00:27:31,508 Speaker 2: And you can see his butt. 601 00:27:37,508 --> 00:27:44,228 Speaker 6: Makes a place, fly around, play for children, many pickle shots. 602 00:27:47,508 --> 00:27:52,908 Speaker 2: Super Cooper, his first chance as a pill, goes for six. 603 00:27:55,148 --> 00:27:56,788 Speaker 6: The boy's gonna kill me. I didn't tell him. I 604 00:27:56,788 --> 00:27:57,868 Speaker 6: was miked up. That's a no. 605 00:27:57,868 --> 00:27:57,948 Speaker 10: No. 606 00:27:59,828 --> 00:28:00,628 Speaker 6: You guys hid it well. 607 00:28:00,828 --> 00:28:01,708 Speaker 2: I didn't feel anything. 608 00:28:02,388 --> 00:28:06,428 Speaker 4: Bill Bills, Well, the Bills seemed like a good spot 609 00:28:06,508 --> 00:28:09,468 Speaker 4: to start, going for two. If you like that Alan 610 00:28:09,548 --> 00:28:12,268 Speaker 4: Mike'd up, you're gonna love what HBO and NFL films 611 00:28:12,268 --> 00:28:14,548 Speaker 4: are sending your way during training camp.

It is all about you, guys. 616 00:28:23,348 --> 00:28:26,668 Speaker 4: Chris, what do you think about Buffalo being featured on Hardocks. 617 00:28:26,708 --> 00:28:29,308 Speaker 3: You see Josh Allen. He's so likable, right, I like it. 618 00:28:29,348 --> 00:28:31,668 Speaker 12: I think it's about time you were able to get 619 00:28:31,668 --> 00:28:33,868 Speaker 12: one of these teams that's been in the playoffs the past, 620 00:28:34,188 --> 00:28:36,588 Speaker 12: you know, five years that haven't got a chance to 621 00:28:36,628 --> 00:28:39,148 Speaker 12: be in the Hard Knocks. Now they changed the rules. 622 00:28:39,148 --> 00:28:41,588 Speaker 12: Now we're allowed to see the Bills make it, make 623 00:28:41,628 --> 00:28:43,908 Speaker 12: that jump, and I'm excited to see Josh Allen. I 624 00:28:43,908 --> 00:28:47,268 Speaker 12: haven't really gotten a jump start in his career his personality. 625 00:28:47,908 --> 00:28:50,348 Speaker 12: All I've known is from Von Miller being his teammate, 626 00:28:50,748 --> 00:28:53,028 Speaker 12: knowing the type of guy that he is. That he's 627 00:28:53,068 --> 00:28:56,788 Speaker 12: a fun, caring guy teammate and very energetic in the 628 00:28:56,788 --> 00:28:59,628 Speaker 12: locker room. So I'm excited to get a first hand 629 00:28:59,628 --> 00:29:02,068 Speaker 12: looking there on HBO, get. 630 00:29:01,948 --> 00:29:02,988 Speaker 6: To see Kean Coleman. 631 00:29:03,028 --> 00:29:05,268 Speaker 12: You know, he's hilarious as a receiver, being their number 632 00:29:05,308 --> 00:29:08,388 Speaker 12: one receiver for Davious why Zobey Bosa. 633 00:29:08,708 --> 00:29:10,348 Speaker 2: I mean it's I think it's gonna be great. 634 00:29:10,428 --> 00:29:11,428 Speaker 12: I'm glad they picked the move. 635 00:29:12,828 --> 00:29:17,668 Speaker 2: I'm not interested. No, I think it's a I do 636 00:29:17,828 --> 00:29:21,428 Speaker 2: like the like. I am a Seahawks fan. I bleed 637 00:29:21,548 --> 00:29:23,708 Speaker 2: green and Blue and I don't like it when any 638 00:29:23,748 --> 00:29:26,908 Speaker 2: other team gets any other attention. But I've always liked 639 00:29:26,908 --> 00:29:30,428 Speaker 2: the Bills, and Gronk is from there, and he's an 640 00:29:30,508 --> 00:29:34,068 Speaker 2: untalented athlete and has done nothing with his career. But 641 00:29:34,348 --> 00:29:39,148 Speaker 2: I love Lee of Schreiber's voice more. As more exciting 642 00:29:39,228 --> 00:29:42,708 Speaker 2: things happen in that show, liv Schreiber gets more drowsy 643 00:29:43,228 --> 00:29:46,548 Speaker 2: and more relaxed, and I could listen to him talk 644 00:29:46,748 --> 00:29:50,108 Speaker 2: for years. So I'm very, very excited for them. And 645 00:29:50,348 --> 00:29:54,068 Speaker 2: I think Josh Allen is he's going to have long 646 00:29:54,108 --> 00:29:55,628 Speaker 2: after his career is over. He's going to be a 647 00:29:55,668 --> 00:29:57,908 Speaker 2: pitch He's so likable and he can be a pitch 648 00:29:57,948 --> 00:30:00,268 Speaker 2: man for the rest of his life. It really drives 649 00:30:00,308 --> 00:30:03,948 Speaker 2: me insane with jealousy, Joel. 650 00:30:04,708 --> 00:30:06,668 Speaker 5: If the Hard Knocks had done the Seahawks over the 651 00:30:06,748 --> 00:30:08,908 Speaker 5: last twenty years, what would be a player that you'd 652 00:30:08,908 --> 00:30:10,788 Speaker 5: want to see get followed around by the cameras and 653 00:30:10,828 --> 00:30:12,028 Speaker 5: get the libs riber treatment. 654 00:30:12,268 --> 00:30:17,068 Speaker 2: Well, mar John Lynch is possibly the most watchable player 655 00:30:17,228 --> 00:30:19,668 Speaker 2: in the NFL in the last twenty years. I mean 656 00:30:19,988 --> 00:30:23,908 Speaker 2: eating skittles and some cognac before the game and then 657 00:30:25,108 --> 00:30:27,428 Speaker 2: creating beast mode out of nothing. I mean I know 658 00:30:27,468 --> 00:30:29,708 Speaker 2: that he's been followed around quite a bit, and I've 659 00:30:29,708 --> 00:30:33,028 Speaker 2: been on his podcast, I've I went to his theme park. 660 00:30:33,428 --> 00:30:37,748 Speaker 2: He's he is a real personality and I love him. 661 00:30:37,788 --> 00:30:40,468 Speaker 2: And you know the time when Russell Wilson was there, 662 00:30:40,908 --> 00:30:44,628 Speaker 2: when the whole city was completely electric and continues to be. 663 00:30:45,068 --> 00:30:48,908 Speaker 2: Let's say, we're very excited for every season and every game. 664 00:30:50,108 --> 00:30:52,268 Speaker 2: Yeah so, I think. But if we're going way back, 665 00:30:52,428 --> 00:30:58,108 Speaker 2: oh man, that early Largent probably who seemed like such 666 00:30:58,148 --> 00:31:01,908 Speaker 2: a clean cut, perfect receiver, and then you would see 667 00:31:01,988 --> 00:31:04,628 Speaker 2: him that you've seen the footage of him like and 668 00:31:04,668 --> 00:31:07,268 Speaker 2: down guys and stepping on their backs. I'd like to see. 669 00:31:07,108 --> 00:31:12,588 Speaker 5: That Largent the original exciting white gloveless as well, too, 670 00:31:12,708 --> 00:31:15,028 Speaker 5: Like we would have loved Large and Backless an actual 671 00:31:15,148 --> 00:31:16,348 Speaker 5: film getting shot. 672 00:31:16,188 --> 00:31:17,988 Speaker 6: Hairlet's and loveless. All right. 673 00:31:17,868 --> 00:31:20,228 Speaker 5: My take on the bills getting Hard Knocks is, you 674 00:31:20,268 --> 00:31:23,668 Speaker 5: know there's always this reaction of oh no, this is 675 00:31:23,708 --> 00:31:26,708 Speaker 5: not good. We don't want the cameras in there. It's disruptive. 676 00:31:26,828 --> 00:31:29,948 Speaker 5: The Hard Knocks teams never do squad, It never pans out. 677 00:31:31,108 --> 00:31:33,348 Speaker 5: Have you ever taken a moment to look over the 678 00:31:33,428 --> 00:31:36,188 Speaker 5: years of Hard Knocks and looked at the quarterbacks that 679 00:31:36,228 --> 00:31:39,148 Speaker 5: they have featured on those teams. I saw Dell Reed 680 00:31:39,188 --> 00:31:41,908 Speaker 5: retweeted someone who said something similar. Let's just do a 681 00:31:41,988 --> 00:31:43,628 Speaker 5: rundown and you tell me when we get to the 682 00:31:43,668 --> 00:31:46,668 Speaker 5: first team All Pro last year Caleb a rookie, Then 683 00:31:46,708 --> 00:31:50,188 Speaker 5: we have forty year old Rogers, twenty twenty two Lions Golf, 684 00:31:50,188 --> 00:31:53,588 Speaker 5: who's probably the best. It's Dak It's Rams Golf, It's 685 00:31:53,668 --> 00:31:57,028 Speaker 5: rookie Baker, it's Jamis, it's case Keenum, it's Andy Dalton. 686 00:31:57,268 --> 00:32:00,188 Speaker 6: You're not seeing Mahomes and Lamar and Burrow. 687 00:32:00,628 --> 00:32:02,868 Speaker 5: Of course those teams don't get to the playoffs and 688 00:32:02,908 --> 00:32:04,908 Speaker 5: do great things. Really, why do the Heart Knocks team 689 00:32:04,908 --> 00:32:07,428 Speaker 5: never win the Super Bowl? Well, why don't the Fast 690 00:32:07,468 --> 00:32:09,428 Speaker 5: and Furious movies ever win Academy Awards? 691 00:32:09,428 --> 00:32:12,108 Speaker 6: Because Daniel da Lewis is not playing Dom Toretto. They 692 00:32:12,108 --> 00:32:13,348 Speaker 6: get other people, They. 693 00:32:13,228 --> 00:32:15,868 Speaker 5: Get low end quarterbacks and guys on the way up. So, 694 00:32:15,948 --> 00:32:18,948 Speaker 5: of course those teams don't work out. You have Josh Allen, 695 00:32:18,948 --> 00:32:22,108 Speaker 5: you have the MVP. Don't worry about some little reality show. 696 00:32:22,108 --> 00:32:25,468 Speaker 5: It's going to be shot in August. Okay, everybody relaxes. 697 00:32:25,548 --> 00:32:28,748 Speaker 5: There's no Madden curse, no hard Knocks. Curse enough to 698 00:32:28,788 --> 00:32:31,188 Speaker 5: talk about curses and all that nonsense. Just go kick 699 00:32:31,228 --> 00:32:33,468 Speaker 5: the crap out of people. And yes, Joel, I just 700 00:32:33,468 --> 00:32:35,108 Speaker 5: said crap again. I'm going blue today. 701 00:32:35,868 --> 00:32:37,828 Speaker 2: I just like how people go, well, you know, after 702 00:32:37,908 --> 00:32:40,228 Speaker 2: all the all that practicing, they're all some of the 703 00:32:40,228 --> 00:32:43,428 Speaker 2: best athletes in the planet. Now we have that they're cursed. 704 00:32:43,748 --> 00:32:47,148 Speaker 2: Nothing we can do, Oh, nothing we can do. Or 705 00:32:47,268 --> 00:32:50,428 Speaker 2: maybe they're just going to be great and execute well 706 00:32:50,508 --> 00:32:52,308 Speaker 2: and win a bunch of games. I think they should 707 00:32:52,308 --> 00:32:56,028 Speaker 2: do a separate Hard Knocks on. I don't like the Browns. 708 00:32:57,068 --> 00:32:58,788 Speaker 2: They won three games last year and. 709 00:32:58,788 --> 00:33:01,628 Speaker 4: Their quarterback room is incredible. They don't have mics to 710 00:33:01,628 --> 00:33:02,708 Speaker 4: make up the whole quarterback room. 711 00:33:02,908 --> 00:33:06,508 Speaker 2: Yeah you get flavor flaved host that and it's a 712 00:33:06,628 --> 00:33:07,668 Speaker 2: whole other show. 713 00:33:09,788 --> 00:33:10,508 Speaker 3: You can pitch it. 714 00:33:10,628 --> 00:33:11,228 Speaker 6: I'm into it. 715 00:33:11,828 --> 00:33:13,388 Speaker 3: So here here's our second one. 716 00:33:13,508 --> 00:33:16,348 Speaker 4: The Commanders maybe could be on next year's Hard Knocks. 717 00:33:16,348 --> 00:33:18,548 Speaker 4: The passion for football has been on full display after 718 00:33:18,588 --> 00:33:22,068 Speaker 4: their twenty twenty four campaign found him in the NFC Championship. 719 00:33:22,868 --> 00:33:28,068 Speaker 4: Just ask Commanders Foundation chairman Marjorie Harris. There is so 720 00:33:28,188 --> 00:33:31,668 Speaker 4: much to look forward to, and look, the Commanders are 721 00:33:31,828 --> 00:33:36,708 Speaker 4: America's team WHOA, those are fighting words there. 722 00:33:37,268 --> 00:33:39,308 Speaker 6: What the Jones. 723 00:33:38,948 --> 00:33:42,548 Speaker 4: Family would maybe like a word on the America's Team discourse, 724 00:33:42,588 --> 00:33:45,228 Speaker 4: although seth Rawlins was on yesterday and he said he's 725 00:33:45,228 --> 00:33:48,148 Speaker 4: had enough of that, saying, as it pertains to the 726 00:33:48,148 --> 00:33:50,388 Speaker 4: Cowboys that the Cowboys have not won a Super Bowl 727 00:33:50,708 --> 00:33:54,228 Speaker 4: since the nineteen ninety five season, is it time to 728 00:33:54,388 --> 00:33:57,908 Speaker 4: bestow another franchise with that title? 729 00:33:58,028 --> 00:34:01,148 Speaker 12: Chris, I think it's time. You know, Casey has been 730 00:34:01,388 --> 00:34:05,348 Speaker 12: the team over you know this decade, have been dominating 731 00:34:05,788 --> 00:34:08,028 Speaker 12: and they kind of took that torch from the Patriots. 732 00:34:08,028 --> 00:34:10,188 Speaker 12: You know, they were kind of that America's team during 733 00:34:10,228 --> 00:34:11,748 Speaker 12: the time of Tom Brady and then it kind of 734 00:34:11,788 --> 00:34:15,188 Speaker 12: passed to Patrick Mahomes and now Jayden Daniels could be 735 00:34:15,348 --> 00:34:18,428 Speaker 12: the next guy up right, I think fans are pretty 736 00:34:18,468 --> 00:34:21,308 Speaker 12: much fed up with the Cowboys and Dak Prescott and 737 00:34:21,308 --> 00:34:23,228 Speaker 12: those guys and not being able to get over the hump. 738 00:34:23,468 --> 00:34:26,108 Speaker 12: And we've seen how good Daniels was able to play 739 00:34:26,108 --> 00:34:28,468 Speaker 12: this year as a rookie, right, taking that team far 740 00:34:28,548 --> 00:34:31,868 Speaker 12: in the playoffs, and they're very exciting team to watch. 741 00:34:31,908 --> 00:34:35,028 Speaker 12: So the Commanders are getting They're very close right in 742 00:34:35,068 --> 00:34:37,868 Speaker 12: they're in Washington, DC, they're They're in the Mecca right, 743 00:34:38,148 --> 00:34:40,228 Speaker 12: They're riding the prime spot. 744 00:34:40,308 --> 00:34:42,108 Speaker 2: So I'm excited to see what they do. 745 00:34:42,508 --> 00:34:44,868 Speaker 12: But right now, I would say the Chiefs are the 746 00:34:44,868 --> 00:34:47,108 Speaker 12: America's teams. Then the Commanders definitely have a shot. 747 00:34:48,148 --> 00:34:50,388 Speaker 6: No, here's the Seattle. 748 00:34:51,468 --> 00:34:53,668 Speaker 2: Has there ever been a West Coast team that's been 749 00:34:53,668 --> 00:34:54,628 Speaker 2: America's team? 750 00:34:55,628 --> 00:34:58,788 Speaker 5: No, forty nine ever, maybe forty nine ers. 751 00:34:58,948 --> 00:35:01,708 Speaker 2: Maybe you're and it's never gonna be well built. It's like, hey, 752 00:35:01,708 --> 00:35:05,548 Speaker 2: there may be America's team. So I don't when Joe 753 00:35:05,588 --> 00:35:08,508 Speaker 2: Montana time, yeah, my dad always couldn't stand when he 754 00:35:08,588 --> 00:35:10,868 Speaker 2: was like, he was like, everyone's America's team. Why would 755 00:35:10,868 --> 00:35:13,428 Speaker 2: they get to who says that just because they have cheerleaders? 756 00:35:13,468 --> 00:35:16,108 Speaker 2: This time my dad talks yes, uh And I would 757 00:35:16,148 --> 00:35:18,948 Speaker 2: be like, yeah, why is that? Why can't they we 758 00:35:19,028 --> 00:35:23,028 Speaker 2: have the Seagulls and uh. So I don't know, it's 759 00:35:23,068 --> 00:35:25,748 Speaker 2: a weird thing to put on a team. So I'm 760 00:35:25,788 --> 00:35:28,148 Speaker 2: just gonna say, no he did. 761 00:35:28,548 --> 00:35:30,788 Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't. I'm into it. 762 00:35:31,348 --> 00:35:34,188 Speaker 5: Okay, I agree with Joel and I think it's I 763 00:35:34,228 --> 00:35:36,748 Speaker 5: think it's honestly a ridiculous quote coming from the Commanders 764 00:35:36,748 --> 00:35:37,948 Speaker 5: that were America's team. 765 00:35:37,988 --> 00:35:40,748 Speaker 6: Now you guys, you've had one good season. Take it easy. 766 00:35:40,788 --> 00:35:42,748 Speaker 6: I've loved everything going on with the commanders too, and 767 00:35:42,788 --> 00:35:44,428 Speaker 6: the coach and the quarterback. It's great. 768 00:35:44,908 --> 00:35:48,468 Speaker 5: You're like nine months removed from being like something on 769 00:35:48,468 --> 00:35:51,468 Speaker 5: the bottom of someone's boot. Now we're America's team. Like 770 00:35:51,668 --> 00:35:54,228 Speaker 5: that's the kind of time when everybody switches on you. 771 00:35:54,268 --> 00:35:57,588 Speaker 5: When you declare yourself, then everyone wants to be the 772 00:35:57,708 --> 00:35:59,788 Speaker 5: enemy of you. So they're gonna have to win this 773 00:35:59,868 --> 00:36:01,468 Speaker 5: year at least get a second winning season. 774 00:36:01,468 --> 00:36:03,468 Speaker 6: But I would look at one team. Everybody likes to 775 00:36:03,508 --> 00:36:04,108 Speaker 6: say the. 776 00:36:04,108 --> 00:36:06,588 Speaker 5: NFL is better when this team is winning, and they 777 00:36:06,668 --> 00:36:08,068 Speaker 5: say that about like twenty teams. 778 00:36:08,108 --> 00:36:10,068 Speaker 6: There's only twelve teams they don't say that about. 779 00:36:10,228 --> 00:36:12,468 Speaker 5: But I think there's one above all when they this 780 00:36:12,588 --> 00:36:14,108 Speaker 5: the NFL is better when this team's winning. 781 00:36:14,388 --> 00:36:16,548 Speaker 6: I think it's the Raiders. I think the race. It'd 782 00:36:16,548 --> 00:36:18,668 Speaker 6: be very cool if the Raiders worked. 783 00:36:18,708 --> 00:36:20,188 Speaker 5: And I think even if you don't care about the 784 00:36:20,268 --> 00:36:22,588 Speaker 5: Raiders and you've never seen a Raiders game, I still 785 00:36:22,628 --> 00:36:25,588 Speaker 5: think it would be fun. And the pageantry and there's Brady, 786 00:36:26,468 --> 00:36:28,788 Speaker 5: there's Brady, and there's the new stadium and there's new 787 00:36:28,868 --> 00:36:29,628 Speaker 5: Las Vegas. 788 00:36:29,748 --> 00:36:30,788 Speaker 6: I just think it would be fun. 789 00:36:30,828 --> 00:36:33,308 Speaker 5: I have to ask you, Joel, what do you think 790 00:36:33,308 --> 00:36:34,508 Speaker 5: about that man sitting on the right. 791 00:36:34,548 --> 00:36:37,268 Speaker 6: As a longtime Seahawks fan seeing that image, what do you. 792 00:36:37,268 --> 00:36:39,308 Speaker 2: Think it's gonna say? From the image before? I was like, 793 00:36:39,388 --> 00:36:42,948 Speaker 2: they're one haircut away from looking like a real front office. 794 00:36:42,988 --> 00:36:46,588 Speaker 2: But yep, I love Pete Carroll and they're gonna make 795 00:36:46,748 --> 00:36:50,348 Speaker 2: statues to Pete Carroll in Seattle. And he's done. When 796 00:36:50,388 --> 00:36:53,508 Speaker 2: he coached at thirteen out of the fourteen seasons, he 797 00:36:53,548 --> 00:36:56,948 Speaker 2: went to the playoffs and he changed the city completely, 798 00:36:57,268 --> 00:37:01,108 Speaker 2: and he's always and I think you guys have probably 799 00:37:01,148 --> 00:37:03,868 Speaker 2: met him a few times, and he's so kind and 800 00:37:03,988 --> 00:37:06,948 Speaker 2: it's a His brand is exactly what he has put forth. 801 00:37:06,988 --> 00:37:09,548 Speaker 2: And so I think they're going to be They're gonna 802 00:37:09,548 --> 00:37:12,428 Speaker 2: be really good. The only thing about the Raiders you 803 00:37:12,468 --> 00:37:14,548 Speaker 2: have to be careful is that tunnel going from the 804 00:37:14,588 --> 00:37:19,348 Speaker 2: Mandalay Bay and so people already had eighteen yard marks 805 00:37:19,348 --> 00:37:21,148 Speaker 2: going to the game and they might not be sure 806 00:37:21,228 --> 00:37:25,908 Speaker 2: what game are at. So I think they're one. The 807 00:37:25,988 --> 00:37:27,748 Speaker 2: thing that's a little bit hard for the Raiders right 808 00:37:27,788 --> 00:37:29,908 Speaker 2: now is the home because everyone wants to go to 809 00:37:29,948 --> 00:37:32,548 Speaker 2: Las Vegas to see their team play, so it might 810 00:37:32,548 --> 00:37:34,748 Speaker 2: be a p It might be a problem getting that 811 00:37:34,948 --> 00:37:39,508 Speaker 2: same home crowd feeling like with Seattle, where when the 812 00:37:39,508 --> 00:37:44,668 Speaker 2: crowd starts yelling, tsunamis begin forming and hitting Bainbridge Island. 813 00:37:44,828 --> 00:37:45,268 Speaker 6: I like a. 814 00:37:45,228 --> 00:37:47,068 Speaker 5: Beverage where you have to wear it on a lanyard 815 00:37:47,188 --> 00:37:49,228 Speaker 5: around your neck just for the weight of it to 816 00:37:49,348 --> 00:37:51,348 Speaker 5: carry it around like that.
