0:00:03.920 --> 0:00:08.520
<v Speaker 1>From the King of sports Books comes the key sports

0:00:08.560 --> 0:00:18.919
<v Speaker 1>podcast Unleashed, presented by the MGM. Here's your host, Jerry

0:00:18.960 --> 0:00:30.760
<v Speaker 1>Ferrara and Olivia Harlan Decker. Welcome back, Welcome back, Welcome back,

0:00:30.800 --> 0:00:33.680
<v Speaker 1>Welcome back to a new season of Unleashed. I am

0:00:33.840 --> 0:00:37.400
<v Speaker 1>so excited to be back, Olivia Harland Decker. I know

0:00:37.600 --> 0:00:40.000
<v Speaker 1>it's been three months since I've been on the mic

0:00:40.040 --> 0:00:42.640
<v Speaker 1>with you because I finally had my baby and he's

0:00:42.640 --> 0:00:45.800
<v Speaker 1>three months old today, so maternity leave is over. But

0:00:45.880 --> 0:00:48.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm so excited there's a new man in my life,

0:00:48.240 --> 0:00:50.960
<v Speaker 1>not just my new little baby boy, because this man,

0:00:51.240 --> 0:00:54.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't have to change his diapers, so he's already

0:00:54.760 --> 0:00:57.560
<v Speaker 1>good in my book. It's my new co host. He's

0:00:57.560 --> 0:01:00.920
<v Speaker 1>an actor, producer, and once at a three point shot

0:01:00.920 --> 0:01:03.800
<v Speaker 1>in the NBA Celebrity All Star Games, so you know

0:01:03.840 --> 0:01:07.360
<v Speaker 1>he's got range. Let's see how he does on our microphones.

0:01:07.440 --> 0:01:12.319
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to Unleashed, Jerry Ferrara, Olivia, I'm so happy to

0:01:12.400 --> 0:01:14.440
<v Speaker 1>be doing this with you. As you'll get to know

0:01:14.520 --> 0:01:17.040
<v Speaker 1>me and my football fandom. You may have to change

0:01:17.040 --> 0:01:19.440
<v Speaker 1>my diapers while watching Giant games because they drive me

0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:22.480
<v Speaker 1>absolutely crazy and make me very very nervous, so I

0:01:22.480 --> 0:01:25.560
<v Speaker 1>can't promise fully, but yeah, three months in, I'm glad

0:01:25.600 --> 0:01:28.880
<v Speaker 1>that you're you're back now. But it's like back to

0:01:28.920 --> 0:01:32.119
<v Speaker 1>school now, right, Like this season starting is a lot

0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:34.720
<v Speaker 1>of good stuff going on. I love it. This time

0:01:34.720 --> 0:01:37.520
<v Speaker 1>of year always feels like, you know, the weathery're starting

0:01:37.560 --> 0:01:41.280
<v Speaker 1>to get a touch cooler, you know, leaves are changing,

0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:44.119
<v Speaker 1>and like I grew up with my whole family working

0:01:44.120 --> 0:01:47.560
<v Speaker 1>in football especially, so this time of year always felt

0:01:47.600 --> 0:01:51.200
<v Speaker 1>like back to school. And even my husband who plays basketball,

0:01:51.240 --> 0:01:53.240
<v Speaker 1>this is when he goes back to this season, so

0:01:53.280 --> 0:01:55.880
<v Speaker 1>this whole like I have a teacher's schedule. Everyone in

0:01:55.920 --> 0:01:58.520
<v Speaker 1>my family as a teacher's schedule, so this should be

0:01:58.960 --> 0:02:01.960
<v Speaker 1>no different. What are you most excited for just to

0:02:02.040 --> 0:02:05.080
<v Speaker 1>kind of like leave somewhere behind, move forward, get back

0:02:05.080 --> 0:02:08.840
<v Speaker 1>into football. Yeah, it's uh, you know, football is the

0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:12.240
<v Speaker 1>longest amount of time in between like Super Bowl ending

0:02:12.280 --> 0:02:16.000
<v Speaker 1>to first season, and obviously I'm a big basketball freak too,

0:02:16.080 --> 0:02:18.839
<v Speaker 1>so that gets to be going. But it's time now.

0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:21.400
<v Speaker 1>Like I love all the sun. I have two kids,

0:02:21.440 --> 0:02:24.120
<v Speaker 1>so I love all the Sunday fun days with the family.

0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:26.959
<v Speaker 1>It's awesome. Wouldn't trade that for anything in the world.

0:02:27.520 --> 0:02:31.239
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, I'm about to enter season two of football

0:02:31.320 --> 0:02:34.040
<v Speaker 1>watching on Sunday with two kids, switching from the zone

0:02:34.040 --> 0:02:36.280
<v Speaker 1>to a man defense. So figuring out how I'm gonna

0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:38.919
<v Speaker 1>watch all these games, timing up the naps and stuff

0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:42.720
<v Speaker 1>like that, It's could be really interesting. Are you guys

0:02:42.760 --> 0:02:45.760
<v Speaker 1>like sticklers where you log like they nap at this time,

0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:48.079
<v Speaker 1>they pooped at this time to eat it this time?

0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:50.320
<v Speaker 1>Are you like that? We did that with the first

0:02:50.480 --> 0:02:52.960
<v Speaker 1>for like the first first kids for the first six months.

0:02:53.120 --> 0:02:55.040
<v Speaker 1>Let me say, the second one, you're kind of just like,

0:02:55.520 --> 0:03:01.920
<v Speaker 1>he's probably good, it's probably it's fine, he's good. Let's go. Oh,

0:03:01.960 --> 0:03:04.400
<v Speaker 1>I got an ages? What ages are your kids? So

0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:06.839
<v Speaker 1>I got three and a half and one and a half.

0:03:06.840 --> 0:03:10.839
<v Speaker 1>They're almost exactly two years apart. And yeah, like I said,

0:03:10.840 --> 0:03:12.520
<v Speaker 1>with the one kid, it was kind of easy to

0:03:12.560 --> 0:03:15.640
<v Speaker 1>watch football and do all my you know, my bets

0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:18.720
<v Speaker 1>and fantasy stuff. And now with the second kid, that's

0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:21.520
<v Speaker 1>definitely be a challenge. So things have to go in

0:03:21.560 --> 0:03:24.799
<v Speaker 1>my life. Unfortunately, like you, as you're learning, your bandwidth

0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:27.800
<v Speaker 1>is only so big. The kid takes most of it up,

0:03:28.600 --> 0:03:30.639
<v Speaker 1>and I have to make some tough cuts. I don't

0:03:30.639 --> 0:03:33.519
<v Speaker 1>get to watch baseball as much, which makes me sad.

0:03:34.000 --> 0:03:35.880
<v Speaker 1>If things have to go, I would go ahead and

0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:37.760
<v Speaker 1>nix the three and a half year old. It just

0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:40.520
<v Speaker 1>seems like they've had a good run. I mean, if

0:03:40.560 --> 0:03:42.040
<v Speaker 1>you said things have to go, I don't know, like

0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:45.080
<v Speaker 1>you have to pick one. Yeah. The unfortunately thing, I

0:03:45.080 --> 0:03:47.360
<v Speaker 1>think I'm making a really tough cut this year and

0:03:47.480 --> 0:03:51.880
<v Speaker 1>some people. I know this might annoy some of you listening. Uh,

0:03:52.000 --> 0:03:55.640
<v Speaker 1>I think I'm done with fantasy football. I know this

0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:59.560
<v Speaker 1>is like sacrilogious to say, right, well, I mean now

0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:02.400
<v Speaker 1>you're getting deeper into gambling, you're joining our show, You're

0:04:02.520 --> 0:04:05.440
<v Speaker 1>more into sports gambling, and I bet you're going to

0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:09.160
<v Speaker 1>watch sports a little bit differently now because every Tuesday

0:04:09.200 --> 0:04:10.800
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna hop on the mic with me and we're

0:04:10.800 --> 0:04:13.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna break it down. So, no, you don't have time

0:04:13.400 --> 0:04:16.599
<v Speaker 1>for fantasy football. I will tell you that. Yeah, And

0:04:16.640 --> 0:04:19.880
<v Speaker 1>look again, I love all fantasy sports. I go back

0:04:19.920 --> 0:04:24.279
<v Speaker 1>to I did fantasy baseball and I drafted Moist Salu

0:04:24.839 --> 0:04:26.520
<v Speaker 1>and we used to have to score it ourselves with

0:04:26.600 --> 0:04:29.280
<v Speaker 1>a pencil and a paper. So like, I love fantasy

0:04:29.920 --> 0:04:32.280
<v Speaker 1>the camaraderie of it to me, which is what I

0:04:32.360 --> 0:04:35.560
<v Speaker 1>used to love to live drafts talking trash. Here it's gone.

0:04:35.640 --> 0:04:38.920
<v Speaker 1>It's all gone, and I've just enjoyed more. And this

0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:41.400
<v Speaker 1>is not even like a bet MGM homwer thing. I'm saying.

0:04:41.440 --> 0:04:44.960
<v Speaker 1>I really just enjoy figuring out my own props for

0:04:45.000 --> 0:04:48.240
<v Speaker 1>the weekend, make my own fantasy kind of element with

0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:51.840
<v Speaker 1>some prop bets. So I'm sorry Fantasy Football. Although I'm

0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:54.280
<v Speaker 1>getting a lot of heat from the commissioners about dropping

0:04:54.320 --> 0:04:57.320
<v Speaker 1>out that people are pretty shocked by this. So I

0:04:57.360 --> 0:04:59.080
<v Speaker 1>don't know if I if I'll hold strong, but I

0:04:59.120 --> 0:05:01.719
<v Speaker 1>think I'm out. Well, yeah, and as I discovered, you

0:05:01.760 --> 0:05:04.919
<v Speaker 1>have some pretty high profile commissioners, like how many leagues

0:05:04.960 --> 0:05:07.159
<v Speaker 1>are you in? And who are some big names in

0:05:07.200 --> 0:05:08.880
<v Speaker 1>these leagues? Because what I told you, I said, oh,

0:05:08.920 --> 0:05:11.080
<v Speaker 1>just tell your commissioner you're out. And he said, well,

0:05:11.200 --> 0:05:13.480
<v Speaker 1>one of my commissioners is c J McCollum, so you've

0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:17.159
<v Speaker 1>got to explain more about that. Yeah, he did. He

0:05:17.200 --> 0:05:20.440
<v Speaker 1>put something out on Twitter about doing like a fantasy league.

0:05:20.480 --> 0:05:22.640
<v Speaker 1>I just responded, I don't really know CJ, like on

0:05:22.680 --> 0:05:26.159
<v Speaker 1>a personal personal level, and I would like for replying

0:05:26.200 --> 0:05:28.200
<v Speaker 1>on Twitter, It's all right, you're in. Someone's gonna text

0:05:28.240 --> 0:05:30.839
<v Speaker 1>you and someone did, and I'm in this league and yeah,

0:05:30.920 --> 0:05:32.960
<v Speaker 1>trying to like back out of this one, like not, guys,

0:05:33.000 --> 0:05:36.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm out and getting pressure. Yeah, I'm gonna have to

0:05:36.080 --> 0:05:39.240
<v Speaker 1>really hold the line here from from all but the

0:05:39.240 --> 0:05:40.800
<v Speaker 1>other ones, Like there's a few of my friends. I'm like,

0:05:40.880 --> 0:05:43.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm done, and I just put them all. I just

0:05:43.120 --> 0:05:45.920
<v Speaker 1>basically ignore the text. Now I'm out. I got much

0:05:45.920 --> 0:05:48.839
<v Speaker 1>more things to do with football season than fantasy. I

0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:57.800
<v Speaker 1>love it, but yeah, not for me anymore. All the

0:07:11.240 --> 0:07:14.440
<v Speaker 1>this show last year. He is fascinating. We had him

0:07:14.480 --> 0:07:16.600
<v Speaker 1>around March Madness too, because he has such a good

0:07:16.640 --> 0:07:20.160
<v Speaker 1>Cinderella story from his college basketball years. But something I

0:07:20.160 --> 0:07:22.120
<v Speaker 1>didn't know about c J that was so cool is

0:07:22.200 --> 0:07:24.800
<v Speaker 1>he has his own wine label. You know, he's when

0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:27.640
<v Speaker 1>he was up with the Trailblazers, he really got into

0:07:27.720 --> 0:07:30.920
<v Speaker 1>the wine game. And he has a rose and it's delicious.

0:07:31.600 --> 0:07:33.680
<v Speaker 1>C J. I gotta tell my wife that, because she's

0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:36.280
<v Speaker 1>all about the road. I didn't know he has. You know,

0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:38.560
<v Speaker 1>all right, maybe I'll stick around in the league see

0:07:38.560 --> 0:07:40.160
<v Speaker 1>if I can get a free case of rose. Is

0:07:40.200 --> 0:07:43.320
<v Speaker 1>like a concert coming in ninth place, which I probably

0:07:43.600 --> 0:07:46.400
<v Speaker 1>would while I'm focusing all my energy on if Travis

0:07:46.480 --> 0:07:50.480
<v Speaker 1>Kelsey's gonna have nine and a half catches. Yeah. You

0:07:50.480 --> 0:07:52.960
<v Speaker 1>know what's embarrassing though, is I reached out or I

0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:55.600
<v Speaker 1>said on the podcast as we recorded, and I'm I

0:07:55.600 --> 0:07:58.040
<v Speaker 1>don't shy away from asking for free things. You'll learn

0:07:58.080 --> 0:08:00.040
<v Speaker 1>that about me. And I said, oh, c J, I

0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:01.640
<v Speaker 1>would love if you could, you know, send some of

0:08:01.720 --> 0:08:03.960
<v Speaker 1>that rose over. I never met a rose I didn't like.

0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:07.320
<v Speaker 1>And he's like, okay, they sent me one bottle. I

0:08:07.320 --> 0:08:08.880
<v Speaker 1>thought I was going to get a case at least

0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:11.240
<v Speaker 1>one bottle. Come on, that's a that's a porch sipper.

0:08:11.920 --> 0:08:14.520
<v Speaker 1>Well maybe they just were you know, if you like it,

0:08:14.680 --> 0:08:16.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, hit me back. Maybe he's don't want to

0:08:16.840 --> 0:08:18.520
<v Speaker 1>be presumptuous, like you're gonna love this so much. I'm

0:08:18.520 --> 0:08:22.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna send you nineteen bottles of rose, which you've got

0:08:22.360 --> 0:08:25.600
<v Speaker 1>to figure out how to store properly for the next year. Oh,

0:08:25.680 --> 0:08:28.400
<v Speaker 1>I can store it, and I've got thirsty friends. How

0:08:28.440 --> 0:08:31.200
<v Speaker 1>are your Sunday's gonna be now? You know you've got

0:08:31.200 --> 0:08:33.760
<v Speaker 1>the three month old, It's gonna be great, lots of

0:08:33.880 --> 0:08:37.120
<v Speaker 1>naps and all that, but you know you are you

0:08:37.160 --> 0:08:41.199
<v Speaker 1>ready for this? Definitely gonna be different, It's gonna feel different. Yeah,

0:08:41.320 --> 0:08:43.439
<v Speaker 1>so we haven't talked about this yet as you and

0:08:43.520 --> 0:08:45.040
<v Speaker 1>I are getting to know each other. But I have

0:08:45.160 --> 0:08:49.080
<v Speaker 1>two NFL teams, which I know some people think is

0:08:49.360 --> 0:08:51.160
<v Speaker 1>kind of sell out of me. But to be fair,

0:08:51.200 --> 0:08:53.920
<v Speaker 1>I've grown up in two places in my life and

0:08:53.960 --> 0:08:56.560
<v Speaker 1>still own property in two places now as an adult

0:08:56.559 --> 0:08:58.800
<v Speaker 1>with my husband, And that's Kansas City and that's where

0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:00.920
<v Speaker 1>I am right now. That's my home, ba Ace and

0:09:01.160 --> 0:09:03.640
<v Speaker 1>grew up a Chiefs fan. My dad's career started with

0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:05.880
<v Speaker 1>the Kansas City Chiefs. I you know, grew up running

0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:08.880
<v Speaker 1>around Arrowhead and and love the Chiefs, but also the

0:09:08.880 --> 0:09:12.800
<v Speaker 1>Green Bay Packers are so my team. Spent part of

0:09:12.840 --> 0:09:14.920
<v Speaker 1>the year every year of my life in Wisconsin. My

0:09:15.000 --> 0:09:18.280
<v Speaker 1>husband's from Wisconsin. Kind of long story, but we're huge

0:09:18.559 --> 0:09:21.800
<v Speaker 1>Packer fans. Our first date was watching a Packer game.

0:09:21.880 --> 0:09:23.480
<v Speaker 1>First time we said I Love you was about a

0:09:23.520 --> 0:09:26.920
<v Speaker 1>month later at a Packer game. Like, we are Packers

0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:29.600
<v Speaker 1>through and through. My grandpa worked there for twenty years.

0:09:29.640 --> 0:09:33.160
<v Speaker 1>I've worked there, like that's probably my bigger team. But

0:09:33.480 --> 0:09:37.120
<v Speaker 1>to answer your question, my whole Sunday revolves around what

0:09:37.160 --> 0:09:39.520
<v Speaker 1>time those two teams play, you know, so it's pretty

0:09:39.559 --> 0:09:41.360
<v Speaker 1>easy and I like having an NFC team in an

0:09:41.360 --> 0:09:44.560
<v Speaker 1>an FC team, you must have been a little nervous

0:09:44.640 --> 0:09:48.680
<v Speaker 1>last year because the proposition of Chiefs Packers was definitely

0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:51.160
<v Speaker 1>out there that that was a very that was very

0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:54.160
<v Speaker 1>possible for the Super Bowl last year. So you you

0:09:54.160 --> 0:09:56.480
<v Speaker 1>would just root for the Packers, but you wouldn't be

0:09:56.559 --> 0:10:01.240
<v Speaker 1>sad if like the Chiefs won. Yes. So in my family,

0:10:01.280 --> 0:10:03.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm one of four kids, so we're all kind of

0:10:03.320 --> 0:10:05.920
<v Speaker 1>in the same position, but some of us, for whatever reason,

0:10:06.040 --> 0:10:09.880
<v Speaker 1>lean heavier one way, and a sister, one of my

0:10:09.920 --> 0:10:12.960
<v Speaker 1>sisters and me die hard Packer fans, like go to

0:10:13.640 --> 0:10:16.360
<v Speaker 1>most home games a year, I gotta say. And then

0:10:16.360 --> 0:10:19.440
<v Speaker 1>my other two siblings are bigger Chiefs fans. But I

0:10:19.440 --> 0:10:21.200
<v Speaker 1>don't know. It's like if our parents were to get

0:10:21.200 --> 0:10:23.240
<v Speaker 1>divorced and we'd have to split down the middle. I

0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:26.000
<v Speaker 1>think we know how we'd split it. Whoever has the

0:10:26.040 --> 0:10:29.800
<v Speaker 1>Packer tickets? Yeah, that was like that Super Bowl isn't

0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:33.640
<v Speaker 1>Niners Ravens with both Harbob brothers. I asked my mom, Mom,

0:10:33.640 --> 0:10:35.360
<v Speaker 1>if that were me and my and my brother's name

0:10:35.400 --> 0:10:37.880
<v Speaker 1>is and that like me and Anthony, what do you do?

0:10:38.120 --> 0:10:39.480
<v Speaker 1>And I kind of called her out because he's the

0:10:39.520 --> 0:10:41.640
<v Speaker 1>first born, and I just, I'm I just, I'm a

0:10:41.640 --> 0:10:44.480
<v Speaker 1>big believer, Like, I don't think there's favoritism, but the

0:10:44.520 --> 0:10:46.400
<v Speaker 1>first born, it's just different. Like I was talking about

0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:48.640
<v Speaker 1>my second already, just like he'll figure it out, you

0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:51.280
<v Speaker 1>know that first year you're logging in when they pee

0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:53.880
<v Speaker 1>and poop into an app and do stuff like that.

0:10:54.320 --> 0:10:56.640
<v Speaker 1>So I think my mom, if I was coaching against

0:10:56.640 --> 0:10:58.600
<v Speaker 1>my brother in the super Bowl, deep down, would be like,

0:10:58.880 --> 0:11:01.800
<v Speaker 1>come on, Anthony, you can win this one. She'll never

0:11:01.840 --> 0:11:06.280
<v Speaker 1>admit that. Oh my god, oh that's horrible. I can admit.

0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:08.520
<v Speaker 1>And I know my three siblings don't listen to my show.

0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:11.920
<v Speaker 1>But my mom one time told me I was her favorite.

0:11:12.120 --> 0:11:15.320
<v Speaker 1>She told me, and it was recent too, it's like

0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:19.480
<v Speaker 1>last year. Oh gosh, well yeah, my grandmother did tell

0:11:19.480 --> 0:11:21.320
<v Speaker 1>me one time. She said, you know, Jerry, you're like,

0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:24.480
<v Speaker 1>you're cute. Your brother is handsome, Like, oh my god,

0:11:24.640 --> 0:11:30.959
<v Speaker 1>that's grandma. We're airing out all the family laundry early

0:11:31.000 --> 0:11:34.839
<v Speaker 1>on this shot. Yeah, And to make it worse, I'm

0:11:34.880 --> 0:11:37.559
<v Speaker 1>the third kid, like I met such a random mortar

0:11:37.600 --> 0:11:40.320
<v Speaker 1>of the four, and I'm still the favorite. So that's

0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:43.520
<v Speaker 1>probably like my favorite thing. About myself. One of my

0:11:43.559 --> 0:11:46.240
<v Speaker 1>favorite things about you, Jerry, is a lot of people

0:11:46.480 --> 0:11:49.840
<v Speaker 1>when I told him you're the new co host, like friends, family, strangers,

0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:52.280
<v Speaker 1>on the street, they all say, oh my gosh, Turtle.

0:11:52.640 --> 0:11:56.440
<v Speaker 1>It's Turtle from Entourage. How often do people just yell

0:11:56.520 --> 0:11:59.320
<v Speaker 1>out to you on the street or in an airport

0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:02.680
<v Speaker 1>or something, Turtle, I love you, man. So look like

0:12:02.720 --> 0:12:04.840
<v Speaker 1>if you, if you kind of turned the clock back to,

0:12:05.240 --> 0:12:08.680
<v Speaker 1>say two thousand six, when the show was really kind

0:12:08.679 --> 0:12:10.280
<v Speaker 1>of red in its height. We were in like the

0:12:10.280 --> 0:12:12.840
<v Speaker 1>third or fourth season, it's like a twenty five year

0:12:12.880 --> 0:12:15.360
<v Speaker 1>old meat head fresh out of Brooklyn. Yes it was.

0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:19.560
<v Speaker 1>It was more often than not Turtle over Jerry. As

0:12:19.600 --> 0:12:22.000
<v Speaker 1>the years wore on and kind of eleven itself out.

0:12:22.080 --> 0:12:24.560
<v Speaker 1>Then I go and do power. I played a character

0:12:24.559 --> 0:12:26.640
<v Speaker 1>and they're called Procter. So now it's kind of like

0:12:26.679 --> 0:12:31.439
<v Speaker 1>split down the middle, Procter Turtle. I want you know what, Okay,

0:12:31.800 --> 0:12:34.040
<v Speaker 1>this is a perfect time for the story. So obviously

0:12:34.120 --> 0:12:36.040
<v Speaker 1>you and I are just getting to know each other.

0:12:36.080 --> 0:12:39.800
<v Speaker 1>But I have met your husband before, very very long

0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:42.160
<v Speaker 1>time ago, and I hope he remembers this because I

0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:48.120
<v Speaker 1>remember in this Okay, So all during that magical run

0:12:48.400 --> 0:12:52.040
<v Speaker 1>Wisconsin had when Sam was playing and Frank Kaminski was there.

0:12:52.240 --> 0:12:54.840
<v Speaker 1>Great run, great teams, super fun to watch, and I

0:12:54.840 --> 0:12:56.640
<v Speaker 1>think it was Kaminsky. I think it was Frank who

0:12:56.720 --> 0:12:59.599
<v Speaker 1>was very much on Twitter talking about how Entourage was

0:12:59.640 --> 0:13:02.760
<v Speaker 1>his favorite show and was always quoting lines from the

0:13:02.800 --> 0:13:05.160
<v Speaker 1>show that was quote Johnny Drama going like victory, all

0:13:05.240 --> 0:13:08.240
<v Speaker 1>this stuff. So we would lean into that and we

0:13:08.240 --> 0:13:11.480
<v Speaker 1>we became fans of theirs, pulling for them. So when

0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:13.440
<v Speaker 1>they were out in l A, I think it was

0:13:13.559 --> 0:13:15.199
<v Speaker 1>l A. Yeah, well they was somewhere in cal Yeah,

0:13:15.200 --> 0:13:16.720
<v Speaker 1>it was l A. I don't know what point in

0:13:16.720 --> 0:13:19.800
<v Speaker 1>the tournament they were at. It's like the Elite eight. Yeah,

0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:22.480
<v Speaker 1>the Elite eight. This was right before Entreas movie is

0:13:22.520 --> 0:13:25.160
<v Speaker 1>getting ready to come out. And again they you know,

0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:27.600
<v Speaker 1>they were the toast of the tournament, that Wisconsin team.

0:13:27.640 --> 0:13:30.160
<v Speaker 1>They really were. So I don't know who reached out

0:13:30.200 --> 0:13:32.640
<v Speaker 1>to who. It might have been some agents who went

0:13:32.679 --> 0:13:36.720
<v Speaker 1>to Wisconsin, but somehow we set up a screening for

0:13:37.200 --> 0:13:40.520
<v Speaker 1>the Wisconsin basketball team and then like a little meeting

0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:43.760
<v Speaker 1>of sorts. I went to a practice with our writer

0:13:43.880 --> 0:13:46.320
<v Speaker 1>producer creative enter. I was Doug Allen. I think someone

0:13:46.360 --> 0:13:49.160
<v Speaker 1>else was there. We drove out to wherever they were practicing,

0:13:49.880 --> 0:13:52.520
<v Speaker 1>and I literally catch them coming off the bus and

0:13:52.559 --> 0:13:54.360
<v Speaker 1>I have these pictures. I'll send them over to you,

0:13:54.440 --> 0:13:57.560
<v Speaker 1>just like Frank literally saw me and Doug and like

0:13:58.000 --> 0:14:00.320
<v Speaker 1>jaw dropped, dropped his bags on the floor, was like

0:14:00.400 --> 0:14:04.080
<v Speaker 1>frozen and gave him a full hug. And I met Sam,

0:14:04.200 --> 0:14:06.240
<v Speaker 1>talked to Sam, full of it. You go inside the

0:14:06.240 --> 0:14:08.160
<v Speaker 1>practice and you know the shooting around. I'm standing in

0:14:08.160 --> 0:14:10.720
<v Speaker 1>the corner with Doug and I don't remember who. I

0:14:10.760 --> 0:14:12.800
<v Speaker 1>want to say it was, Sam, might not have been.

0:14:12.880 --> 0:14:16.000
<v Speaker 1>I think it was someone as I'm like talking to dog.

0:14:16.040 --> 0:14:19.960
<v Speaker 1>Just fires passed to me in the corner and instantially,

0:14:19.960 --> 0:14:21.800
<v Speaker 1>and I played basketball in my whole life, obviously not

0:14:22.000 --> 0:14:26.360
<v Speaker 1>nearly on a realistic level, but my instincts just kicked in.

0:14:26.680 --> 0:14:29.160
<v Speaker 1>Caught the ball and then I looked in the entire

0:14:29.280 --> 0:14:32.960
<v Speaker 1>team and coaches now looking at me at college three

0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:36.600
<v Speaker 1>point corner and I just launched it and I'm not

0:14:36.600 --> 0:14:38.200
<v Speaker 1>gonna lie. I leave my hand and I'm like, oh,

0:14:38.200 --> 0:14:41.280
<v Speaker 1>that's a little short ship. It's a little short went

0:14:41.440 --> 0:14:44.560
<v Speaker 1>right in the whole place, exploded. That was my intro

0:14:45.200 --> 0:14:49.400
<v Speaker 1>to the Wisconsin basketball team and your husband and my

0:14:49.480 --> 0:14:53.280
<v Speaker 1>guy Frank and um, yeah, and I think they watched

0:14:53.280 --> 0:14:55.360
<v Speaker 1>the movie that night. I'm pretty sure they got an

0:14:55.360 --> 0:14:59.640
<v Speaker 1>early screening of I believe. So, yeah, we have a past. Yeah,

0:14:59.680 --> 0:15:02.080
<v Speaker 1>let's get of Sam the dime on that one. I

0:15:02.080 --> 0:15:04.280
<v Speaker 1>think it was. If I had to bet, and this

0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:06.560
<v Speaker 1>is a yeah, if I had, I would say he's

0:15:06.840 --> 0:15:10.320
<v Speaker 1>easily like minus one fifty to be the guy who

0:15:10.360 --> 0:15:14.560
<v Speaker 1>threw the past. Okay, Okay, then, so that's a pretty

0:15:14.560 --> 0:15:18.640
<v Speaker 1>cool three pointer made like perfect time pressures on. Everyone's

0:15:18.680 --> 0:15:22.560
<v Speaker 1>watching the other one NBA All Star Game? What year

0:15:22.640 --> 0:15:24.600
<v Speaker 1>was that and who else was playing? Like set that

0:15:24.600 --> 0:15:27.720
<v Speaker 1>one up for me? That was I think it was.

0:15:28.040 --> 0:15:29.840
<v Speaker 1>It was when it was in l A. So I

0:15:29.880 --> 0:15:32.400
<v Speaker 1>think it was, like I really have to look. I

0:15:32.400 --> 0:15:36.360
<v Speaker 1>think it was or nineteen. It was at Staples Center.

0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:39.400
<v Speaker 1>I got real shook up on that one though. There

0:15:39.440 --> 0:15:42.480
<v Speaker 1>I got stories Olivia, and there's a story with this one.

0:15:43.240 --> 0:15:46.680
<v Speaker 1>Problem with all these celebrity games, whether it's basketball, golf,

0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:49.680
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of proms all this stuff. I take

0:15:49.720 --> 0:15:52.000
<v Speaker 1>it serious, like I want to win, I want to

0:15:52.000 --> 0:15:54.680
<v Speaker 1>play well. I want to win, and no one's really

0:15:54.680 --> 0:15:56.600
<v Speaker 1>like there's a few people taking it seriously, but no

0:15:56.600 --> 0:16:00.360
<v Speaker 1>one's really playing. So I'm at the arena early. I

0:16:00.400 --> 0:16:03.880
<v Speaker 1>got on my Kobe threes, I got from the Kobe pack,

0:16:03.960 --> 0:16:06.440
<v Speaker 1>my Jeorge, my Kobe three's. I'm like, matched up in

0:16:06.520 --> 0:16:09.760
<v Speaker 1>all purple, ready to go, and I hear a rum.

0:16:09.760 --> 0:16:12.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm in the locker room, feel like t Max in

0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:15.600
<v Speaker 1>the locker room with me, and I hear like fans

0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:19.560
<v Speaker 1>like screaming and mainly women, but lots of screams. And

0:16:19.560 --> 0:16:23.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, what is that? And someone comes in and

0:16:23.120 --> 0:16:25.440
<v Speaker 1>it's like, do we have an extra blank jersey? I'm like,

0:16:26.200 --> 0:16:29.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. And I hear not scheduled to be

0:16:29.680 --> 0:16:33.480
<v Speaker 1>there or play in the game, justin Bieber was now

0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:37.120
<v Speaker 1>going to come play. Never told anyone I was in

0:16:37.160 --> 0:16:40.120
<v Speaker 1>the starting line of our coach Rachel. Yeah, I was,

0:16:40.320 --> 0:16:43.320
<v Speaker 1>but I was slated to start. I wasn't have the

0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:45.320
<v Speaker 1>ball in my hand. This was gonna be my shot.

0:16:45.960 --> 0:16:51.000
<v Speaker 1>And Bieber comes in, super cool, says what's up to everybody?

0:16:51.040 --> 0:16:53.840
<v Speaker 1>Like very you know, taking pictures with everyone, and like

0:16:54.040 --> 0:16:56.760
<v Speaker 1>cool guy. But of course I get it, Like who

0:16:56.760 --> 0:17:00.160
<v Speaker 1>are you gonna start? Ferrara or Bieber? I understand the

0:17:00.200 --> 0:17:03.600
<v Speaker 1>mechanics of it. So I got bitched. I got straight

0:17:03.680 --> 0:17:09.560
<v Speaker 1>up benched for Biber shot one for you, Oh my god.

0:17:10.480 --> 0:17:12.960
<v Speaker 1>And then the one guy in my mind Jason Williams.

0:17:13.080 --> 0:17:16.080
<v Speaker 1>Jason Williams is on the other team, and I'm like, god,

0:17:16.080 --> 0:17:18.200
<v Speaker 1>I really hope I don't have to ever guard Jason

0:17:18.240 --> 0:17:21.159
<v Speaker 1>Williams because I just don't want to look foolish, you know.

0:17:21.400 --> 0:17:23.160
<v Speaker 1>That's you know, he made a lot of people look

0:17:23.160 --> 0:17:26.760
<v Speaker 1>foolish in the NBA. So the one time Rachel looks

0:17:26.800 --> 0:17:28.960
<v Speaker 1>like calls through me off the bench like go in,

0:17:29.680 --> 0:17:31.800
<v Speaker 1>like whom I got Jason Williams, I'm like, son of

0:17:32.000 --> 0:17:34.800
<v Speaker 1>got really? And Jason Williams like dribbling the ball down

0:17:34.800 --> 0:17:38.400
<v Speaker 1>the corner. Yeah, I'll guarding him. I'm like, Jason, don't

0:17:38.400 --> 0:17:41.520
<v Speaker 1>do it, please, I'm all, please, don't embarrass me. My

0:17:41.520 --> 0:17:45.840
<v Speaker 1>wife's here. And he took it real easy on me, thankfully. Okay,

0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:48.640
<v Speaker 1>I just typed in justin Bieber All Star Game. Are

0:17:48.640 --> 0:17:53.560
<v Speaker 1>you sure it wasn't that long ago? Again, he was

0:17:53.640 --> 0:17:57.200
<v Speaker 1>not scheduled to be there. That's the thing in probably

0:17:57.320 --> 0:18:02.040
<v Speaker 1>was this was a just a drop like I'm here, hey,

0:18:02.440 --> 0:18:04.159
<v Speaker 1>Like that's like if you if I rolled up to

0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:06.320
<v Speaker 1>the park and like you and your family are out

0:18:06.320 --> 0:18:08.560
<v Speaker 1>there playing. I'm like, can I get in? You're like, yeah, sure, Jerry.

0:18:08.680 --> 0:18:11.440
<v Speaker 1>He rolled up to the NBA Celebrity All Star Game

0:18:11.600 --> 0:18:12.920
<v Speaker 1>and the announced. I was like, hey, can I get

0:18:13.240 --> 0:18:15.480
<v Speaker 1>to run? And everyone's like, yeah, sure, come on in.

0:18:15.760 --> 0:18:19.440
<v Speaker 1>Oh I found it. Yep. Oh God. Should I watch

0:18:19.520 --> 0:18:21.239
<v Speaker 1>the whole highlights or just take your word for it?

0:18:21.480 --> 0:18:23.199
<v Speaker 1>You could take my word for all I know is

0:18:23.240 --> 0:18:25.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm pissed and every single every anytime they come to

0:18:25.920 --> 0:18:31.680
<v Speaker 1>me a bad expression on my face. Okay, to make

0:18:31.720 --> 0:18:34.920
<v Speaker 1>this all full circle, this, uh, my dad always does

0:18:35.280 --> 0:18:39.600
<v Speaker 1>the celebrity game dunk contest all that for Turner, and

0:18:39.760 --> 0:18:42.720
<v Speaker 1>he would have been there and Sam was playing for

0:18:42.760 --> 0:18:45.199
<v Speaker 1>the Clippers and we were in l A. Now we

0:18:45.240 --> 0:18:47.600
<v Speaker 1>didn't go this night. I forget why. I think we

0:18:47.640 --> 0:18:49.800
<v Speaker 1>had friends in town. We were, you know, out doing

0:18:49.800 --> 0:18:57.760
<v Speaker 1>the scene that young kids, young childless in love people.

0:18:57.800 --> 0:19:02.280
<v Speaker 1>But yeah we were there. So look, full circle, full circle.

0:19:02.280 --> 0:19:05.320
<v Speaker 1>I can't believe you met Sam back in the day. Yeah,

0:19:05.520 --> 0:19:07.480
<v Speaker 1>a long time ago. So I don't know how we

0:19:07.520 --> 0:19:09.840
<v Speaker 1>got to where we are right now. With me. This

0:19:09.880 --> 0:19:12.040
<v Speaker 1>is what happens. You start telling stories and you're like,

0:19:12.080 --> 0:19:15.320
<v Speaker 1>how do we get back on the path here? No,

0:19:15.520 --> 0:19:18.200
<v Speaker 1>that is why I'm glad you're here, because I think

0:19:18.280 --> 0:19:21.440
<v Speaker 1>you have so many stories. And that's something about Entourage

0:19:21.480 --> 0:19:24.080
<v Speaker 1>that I think it's so cool, is that sports are

0:19:24.119 --> 0:19:26.920
<v Speaker 1>kind of woven throughout it. But Darry, I got I

0:19:27.040 --> 0:19:32.480
<v Speaker 1>gotta tell you. I gotta admit something. I've never watched Entourage,

0:19:32.600 --> 0:19:35.000
<v Speaker 1>so so don't say anything. I don't say anything. I

0:19:35.680 --> 0:19:37.720
<v Speaker 1>I didn't watch the Office until I met my husband.

0:19:37.800 --> 0:19:40.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm just now watching Seinfeld. I mean, some of the

0:19:40.560 --> 0:19:43.480
<v Speaker 1>most classic shows of all time. I just didn't grow

0:19:43.520 --> 0:19:45.560
<v Speaker 1>up watching. So I here's how I want to make

0:19:45.640 --> 0:19:48.400
<v Speaker 1>this up to you, is I want to start Entourage

0:19:48.520 --> 0:19:51.920
<v Speaker 1>from the very beginning now that we are co host,

0:19:52.080 --> 0:19:56.440
<v Speaker 1>co workers, friends, and I wanna pick your brain as

0:19:56.520 --> 0:19:58.560
<v Speaker 1>I watch. And I think that'd be really fun to

0:19:58.640 --> 0:20:01.480
<v Speaker 1>do on air. So you can keep telling stories, you

0:20:01.560 --> 0:20:03.399
<v Speaker 1>can keep filling me in and tell kind of the

0:20:03.560 --> 0:20:05.639
<v Speaker 1>behind the scenes stuff. What do you think about that?

0:20:06.160 --> 0:20:09.360
<v Speaker 1>First of all, Yeah, I'm glad that we actually met

0:20:10.040 --> 0:20:12.840
<v Speaker 1>before you went and watched the show, because now you're

0:20:12.880 --> 0:20:15.760
<v Speaker 1>gonna actually watch me age we're in reverse. You're meeting

0:20:15.840 --> 0:20:19.359
<v Speaker 1>me now forty two years old, You're gonna start this show,

0:20:20.280 --> 0:20:23.520
<v Speaker 1>and I'm twenty three years old, fresh out of Brooklyn.

0:20:24.160 --> 0:20:26.280
<v Speaker 1>Some people don't even understand me when I spoke because

0:20:26.320 --> 0:20:30.040
<v Speaker 1>my accent was so thick. Okay good. We definitely could

0:20:30.080 --> 0:20:32.720
<v Speaker 1>do that. And I've always wanted to take a peek

0:20:32.760 --> 0:20:35.680
<v Speaker 1>back at some of these episodes because there's so much

0:20:35.760 --> 0:20:39.280
<v Speaker 1>great sports stuff, from the cameos that of athletes that

0:20:39.320 --> 0:20:41.680
<v Speaker 1>we've had on the show to just the references. It's

0:20:41.720 --> 0:20:43.920
<v Speaker 1>like a time capsule for that time period. You know.

0:20:44.119 --> 0:20:46.000
<v Speaker 1>I do think I at some point in the first

0:20:46.040 --> 0:20:50.320
<v Speaker 1>episode I were a very very vintage like Bernard King

0:20:50.440 --> 0:20:53.920
<v Speaker 1>jersey that people still ask if I have, and I do.

0:20:54.480 --> 0:20:56.920
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't able to bring it out this episode, but

0:20:57.080 --> 0:20:58.879
<v Speaker 1>it will make an appearance on this show. I have

0:20:59.119 --> 0:21:04.199
<v Speaker 1>that jersey from that pilot. So of all the athlete guests,

0:21:04.440 --> 0:21:06.720
<v Speaker 1>who who do you think is the biggest name or

0:21:06.760 --> 0:21:09.120
<v Speaker 1>who was the coolest? Like who did he really enjoy

0:21:11.640 --> 0:21:14.200
<v Speaker 1>being such a sports guy. I mean, it's hard to

0:21:14.320 --> 0:21:17.760
<v Speaker 1>really just choose one. But this is gonna pain me

0:21:17.880 --> 0:21:20.040
<v Speaker 1>to say this. I don't take any joy in saying

0:21:20.080 --> 0:21:22.600
<v Speaker 1>this at all. I don't want to say this, and

0:21:22.720 --> 0:21:26.399
<v Speaker 1>you'll get there in the show. It's probably season five.

0:21:26.520 --> 0:21:30.080
<v Speaker 1>I think Tom Brady was pretty awesome. Why does that

0:21:30.240 --> 0:21:32.640
<v Speaker 1>kill you so much just because you're a Giants guy?

0:21:32.880 --> 0:21:36.240
<v Speaker 1>He was Patriots, Well there's that and that that's in

0:21:36.320 --> 0:21:38.840
<v Speaker 1>the episode. That's woven into the episode right in a

0:21:38.920 --> 0:21:42.160
<v Speaker 1>really cool way. But he actually like bowed us out.

0:21:42.280 --> 0:21:44.520
<v Speaker 1>It was initially written and you'll watch the episode. There's

0:21:44.760 --> 0:21:47.560
<v Speaker 1>originally written for Peyton Manning and Eli Manning because they

0:21:47.720 --> 0:21:50.040
<v Speaker 1>I think had requested and asked to be on the show.

0:21:50.640 --> 0:21:53.320
<v Speaker 1>So our show runner wrote this whole episode based around

0:21:53.359 --> 0:21:57.159
<v Speaker 1>Peyton and Eli and then like a month before we

0:21:57.200 --> 0:22:01.080
<v Speaker 1>were about to shoot, they called and canceled, Oh, we

0:22:01.160 --> 0:22:03.720
<v Speaker 1>can't do it. Whatever the reason was, who knows, which

0:22:03.800 --> 0:22:05.480
<v Speaker 1>is easy for them to do. But now we have

0:22:05.600 --> 0:22:10.000
<v Speaker 1>this episode and we're already shooting. So that's where having

0:22:10.040 --> 0:22:13.520
<v Speaker 1>Mark Wahlberg as your executive producer kind of helps out,

0:22:13.560 --> 0:22:15.200
<v Speaker 1>because he basically was like, well, you want me to

0:22:15.440 --> 0:22:19.120
<v Speaker 1>call Tom, who were like Tom who was like Brady

0:22:19.520 --> 0:22:22.320
<v Speaker 1>like yeah, yeah, you wanna whip out your phone and

0:22:22.440 --> 0:22:25.480
<v Speaker 1>called yeah, that'd be great, And in two weeks Tom

0:22:25.520 --> 0:22:27.560
<v Speaker 1>Brady was there. This was the year he got hurt.

0:22:27.640 --> 0:22:30.119
<v Speaker 1>I believe. The year prior was I think believe was

0:22:30.160 --> 0:22:32.440
<v Speaker 1>against your Chiefs where he got rolled up on on

0:22:32.560 --> 0:22:35.520
<v Speaker 1>his knee, So no one seen him play football in

0:22:35.840 --> 0:22:37.440
<v Speaker 1>over a year, and no one's really seen much of

0:22:37.520 --> 0:22:39.600
<v Speaker 1>him at this point. It was the only significant injury

0:22:39.640 --> 0:22:41.879
<v Speaker 1>in his career. And then you know it was the

0:22:41.960 --> 0:22:44.439
<v Speaker 1>off season from obviously he came in on short notice

0:22:44.800 --> 0:22:49.040
<v Speaker 1>and crushed it. Crushed the episode. You'll get there, you'll

0:22:49.040 --> 0:22:51.600
<v Speaker 1>get there. He crushes the episode. So I gotta make

0:22:51.600 --> 0:22:54.200
<v Speaker 1>it to season five to see this. That is the

0:22:54.240 --> 0:22:56.040
<v Speaker 1>way is away. I mean, you could jump forward. It's

0:22:56.040 --> 0:22:57.760
<v Speaker 1>not really gonna make a lot of sense for you

0:22:57.880 --> 0:23:00.359
<v Speaker 1>if you do jump forward. But that is the fleet

0:23:00.920 --> 0:23:03.879
<v Speaker 1>one of the more memorable episodes. That one's always popping

0:23:04.000 --> 0:23:07.000
<v Speaker 1>up on my Twitter feed clips from that from that show.

0:23:07.440 --> 0:23:10.639
<v Speaker 1>Oh I'm looking forward to that. Will there ever be

0:23:10.760 --> 0:23:15.560
<v Speaker 1>an Entourage reboot? Oh, coy smile. I don't think so.

0:23:15.960 --> 0:23:21.560
<v Speaker 1>I really don't, because anything could happen. They reboot everything

0:23:21.640 --> 0:23:25.800
<v Speaker 1>now every they're they're rebooting reboots like insane. Obviously there's

0:23:26.560 --> 0:23:30.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, a premium on original content. Yeah, we did

0:23:30.600 --> 0:23:34.800
<v Speaker 1>almost a hundred episodes. We did a movie. I'm forty

0:23:34.960 --> 0:23:37.280
<v Speaker 1>two going on forty three. Like in the show, as

0:23:37.320 --> 0:23:38.879
<v Speaker 1>you'll see, we used to all like live together. We

0:23:38.960 --> 0:23:40.840
<v Speaker 1>are we still living together. Now it's just gonna be creepy.

0:23:40.840 --> 0:23:44.560
<v Speaker 1>At this point we're like old men. Maybe if you've

0:23:44.560 --> 0:23:47.000
<v Speaker 1>got a time machine, we could reboot the show. I

0:23:47.040 --> 0:23:49.760
<v Speaker 1>think there's a lot of potential. They're even like bring

0:23:49.880 --> 0:23:53.719
<v Speaker 1>in former guests who have now completely gone into new

0:23:53.840 --> 0:23:57.040
<v Speaker 1>chapters of their career. Like Tom Brady is gonna retire soon,

0:23:57.160 --> 0:23:59.600
<v Speaker 1>so perfect, and he's you know, going to be working

0:23:59.640 --> 0:24:01.680
<v Speaker 1>for five Sports, so he'll be in l A a

0:24:01.800 --> 0:24:04.240
<v Speaker 1>bit more if he's doing games and some studio. I

0:24:04.280 --> 0:24:06.200
<v Speaker 1>don't know, I see a lot of potential here. Well,

0:24:06.560 --> 0:24:09.760
<v Speaker 1>if whoever were to happen, my plan my suggestion was

0:24:09.840 --> 0:24:12.000
<v Speaker 1>always you do it, kind of like how Karate Kid

0:24:12.560 --> 0:24:16.000
<v Speaker 1>did their show Cobra Kai, where all the original members

0:24:16.040 --> 0:24:18.200
<v Speaker 1>were still in it, but there's like an all new

0:24:18.359 --> 0:24:20.120
<v Speaker 1>cast and now we're just like, oh, it's like old

0:24:20.200 --> 0:24:22.440
<v Speaker 1>uncle Turtle, let's go talk to my owld. It's like

0:24:22.480 --> 0:24:25.560
<v Speaker 1>my nephews now, like the guy or something, and then

0:24:25.680 --> 0:24:29.439
<v Speaker 1>we just are the old heads who provide wisdom. Okay, okay,

0:24:29.680 --> 0:24:32.560
<v Speaker 1>I like that. Alright, So you did mention Giants are

0:24:32.600 --> 0:24:35.120
<v Speaker 1>your team. You're born and raised New York. I still

0:24:35.320 --> 0:24:38.200
<v Speaker 1>here a little New York accent, although you claim that

0:24:38.280 --> 0:24:40.520
<v Speaker 1>it used to be much stronger. How do you say water?

0:24:40.680 --> 0:24:45.400
<v Speaker 1>By the way, now I say water, but that you'll

0:24:45.480 --> 0:24:48.119
<v Speaker 1>hear in in the early entourage. Everyday I got a

0:24:48.119 --> 0:24:50.200
<v Speaker 1>glass of water, he will be like, excuse me, what

0:24:50.320 --> 0:24:53.960
<v Speaker 1>did you what a glass of water? Oh? God, yeah, bad.

0:24:55.320 --> 0:24:58.840
<v Speaker 1>So part of your accent metamorphos has to be because

0:24:58.880 --> 0:25:00.920
<v Speaker 1>you live in the Midwest. Now why are you in Cleveland?

0:25:02.000 --> 0:25:05.119
<v Speaker 1>If I could, I ask myself that quite often. So

0:25:07.119 --> 0:25:09.720
<v Speaker 1>I love Cleveland. It's great. Uh, you know, New York

0:25:09.800 --> 0:25:13.000
<v Speaker 1>for twenty years, l A for eighteen years. Cleveland. Now

0:25:13.160 --> 0:25:16.560
<v Speaker 1>for two simple answer. My wife is from here. You

0:25:16.600 --> 0:25:20.240
<v Speaker 1>know when we started having kids, she has a large family.

0:25:20.880 --> 0:25:23.359
<v Speaker 1>You know the term it takes a village, that's the

0:25:23.480 --> 0:25:27.520
<v Speaker 1>village takes many hands. So yeah, and you know we

0:25:27.520 --> 0:25:29.960
<v Speaker 1>want a little more space and room New York. We

0:25:30.000 --> 0:25:31.399
<v Speaker 1>were back in New York at this point and it

0:25:31.480 --> 0:25:34.240
<v Speaker 1>was a little claustrophobic with the kids. So yeah, But

0:25:34.359 --> 0:25:37.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean I have been around more Browns fans, and

0:25:37.640 --> 0:25:39.320
<v Speaker 1>I call them my team in law. That's like my

0:25:39.440 --> 0:25:41.560
<v Speaker 1>team in law. You know, I root for them because

0:25:41.600 --> 0:25:44.160
<v Speaker 1>I like my in laws happy. But you know, push

0:25:44.200 --> 0:25:46.360
<v Speaker 1>comes to shove. I would never say I'm a Browns fan.

0:25:46.720 --> 0:25:48.399
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to like hate on the Browns now. I

0:25:48.480 --> 0:25:51.879
<v Speaker 1>know it's maybe getting easier, but until this year, it's

0:25:51.880 --> 0:25:54.920
<v Speaker 1>been hard. Up until this year, it's been hard to

0:25:55.560 --> 0:25:57.040
<v Speaker 1>hate on the Browns. It used to be like, oh,

0:25:57.119 --> 0:25:59.520
<v Speaker 1>the poor Browns. You know. Now obviously this year it's

0:25:59.560 --> 0:26:03.119
<v Speaker 1>kind of going a lot of different directions. I don't know.

0:26:03.280 --> 0:26:05.240
<v Speaker 1>And we lived in Cleveland for a year two and

0:26:05.320 --> 0:26:07.360
<v Speaker 1>Sam played for the Calves. In fact, I pulled out

0:26:07.600 --> 0:26:10.119
<v Speaker 1>his Calves picture just so you could see that, just

0:26:10.520 --> 0:26:12.880
<v Speaker 1>for a little solidays be there. And I gotta say

0:26:13.359 --> 0:26:16.000
<v Speaker 1>I love Cleveland. I loved living there. I'm just curious

0:26:16.040 --> 0:26:18.520
<v Speaker 1>what massage parlors when you're going to I think everyone's

0:26:18.560 --> 0:26:24.320
<v Speaker 1>kind of on high alert. Definitely not Yeah, I'm just

0:26:24.400 --> 0:26:26.159
<v Speaker 1>trying to figure out where I'm going to travel this

0:26:26.280 --> 0:26:28.840
<v Speaker 1>winter because the you know, New York winters are rough,

0:26:29.119 --> 0:26:31.440
<v Speaker 1>and you know, when you know, Wisconsin, I'm sure is

0:26:31.520 --> 0:26:33.880
<v Speaker 1>not much better. But this I'm learning what the lake

0:26:33.920 --> 0:26:37.680
<v Speaker 1>effect is. Never heard of a lake effect before. I'm

0:26:37.760 --> 0:26:39.680
<v Speaker 1>learning now what that is and went there and man,

0:26:39.800 --> 0:26:41.920
<v Speaker 1>it's uh. Someone asked me a little Browns game last

0:26:41.960 --> 0:26:45.199
<v Speaker 1>year in December, like you're out of your mind. Ye,

0:26:45.280 --> 0:26:50.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm just not happening. I will say. The one fun

0:26:50.200 --> 0:26:53.159
<v Speaker 1>place to be in let's say just the Midwest, like

0:26:53.240 --> 0:26:56.840
<v Speaker 1>upper Midwest when it's that cold is at a football game,

0:26:56.880 --> 0:26:59.440
<v Speaker 1>whether it's like an Ohio State football game, Wisconsin Badger

0:26:59.480 --> 0:27:02.440
<v Speaker 1>football game, or NFL games, because you're like shoulder to

0:27:02.480 --> 0:27:05.320
<v Speaker 1>shoulder with all of your people and you're wrapped head

0:27:05.359 --> 0:27:07.879
<v Speaker 1>to toe and you're drunk, so you've got a lot

0:27:08.000 --> 0:27:09.720
<v Speaker 1>going for you to keep you a little bit warmer.

0:27:09.840 --> 0:27:12.280
<v Speaker 1>And it's about as good a place to be when

0:27:12.320 --> 0:27:16.040
<v Speaker 1>it's zero degrees. I've been the one Browns game. It

0:27:16.200 --> 0:27:19.760
<v Speaker 1>was November, it was cold. We were here visiting, we

0:27:19.840 --> 0:27:21.840
<v Speaker 1>were at a wedding the night before. I remember asking

0:27:21.920 --> 0:27:23.480
<v Speaker 1>some of her friends we were going to roll with them,

0:27:23.920 --> 0:27:26.080
<v Speaker 1>and they're big tailgators and like, what time we're gonna

0:27:26.160 --> 0:27:28.240
<v Speaker 1>leave for the game, Like, I'll probably leave it, you know,

0:27:28.640 --> 0:27:31.280
<v Speaker 1>nine am. I'm like, gee, nine am for one o'clock

0:27:31.480 --> 0:27:33.840
<v Speaker 1>starts kind of early, Like, oh no, it's a four o'clock.

0:27:34.359 --> 0:27:37.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, wait a minute, what it's a four o'clock game.

0:27:37.359 --> 0:27:40.280
<v Speaker 1>We're leaving at nine, And we did and man the

0:27:40.600 --> 0:27:43.600
<v Speaker 1>tail because Giants. You know, Giants Stadium is interesting. It's

0:27:43.760 --> 0:27:47.080
<v Speaker 1>it's good tailgating, but not like anything in the Midwest.

0:27:47.520 --> 0:27:50.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, there's like different parking lots to get different.

0:27:50.359 --> 0:27:53.399
<v Speaker 1>It was insane. My wife was doing keg stands. It

0:27:53.520 --> 0:27:57.600
<v Speaker 1>was crazy. Oh yeah, I gotta meet the mrs. She

0:27:57.720 --> 0:28:00.600
<v Speaker 1>has better half. I act like I do a hegstand

0:28:00.640 --> 0:28:02.320
<v Speaker 1>all the time. I haven't done that. And she's a

0:28:02.400 --> 0:28:05.320
<v Speaker 1>lot more fun. She might be if your wife, she

0:28:05.400 --> 0:28:06.920
<v Speaker 1>might be co hosting with you. By the end, you

0:28:07.000 --> 0:28:08.760
<v Speaker 1>might get rid of me and just start hanging aure.

0:28:08.800 --> 0:28:11.240
<v Speaker 1>She's way more fun than I am. Oh my god. No,

0:28:11.440 --> 0:28:12.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if your wife went through this, but

0:28:13.119 --> 0:28:15.080
<v Speaker 1>after you know, you can't drink for nine months, or

0:28:15.119 --> 0:28:17.200
<v Speaker 1>if you do, you're sneaking a glass of wine here there,

0:28:17.240 --> 0:28:20.240
<v Speaker 1>but you're you have this like moment where you're so

0:28:20.400 --> 0:28:23.040
<v Speaker 1>excited just to go to a restaurant and order what

0:28:23.200 --> 0:28:25.320
<v Speaker 1>you've really been wanting to order for a long time,

0:28:25.400 --> 0:28:29.320
<v Speaker 1>instead of like of one glass of like savignon blanc ice,

0:28:29.560 --> 0:28:32.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, and for me, it was that like spicy

0:28:32.160 --> 0:28:34.920
<v Speaker 1>skinny mes cal margharita. Did your wife go on a

0:28:34.960 --> 0:28:37.600
<v Speaker 1>bit of a tear after she had her babies? Uh?

0:28:37.880 --> 0:28:41.120
<v Speaker 1>Still on that tear. The tear is not over. Still

0:28:41.160 --> 0:28:42.880
<v Speaker 1>on a tear. I don't care if you're listening, Brie.

0:28:42.920 --> 0:28:44.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't care if you hear me right now. I

0:28:44.880 --> 0:28:48.280
<v Speaker 1>don't care. You're still on the tear. It's still going,

0:28:48.480 --> 0:28:52.360
<v Speaker 1>and God bless good for you. We went to a

0:28:52.440 --> 0:28:54.720
<v Speaker 1>wedding pretty soon after my baby was born, and my

0:28:54.800 --> 0:28:57.120
<v Speaker 1>parents were going to watch, and it was actually a J.

0:28:57.280 --> 0:28:59.920
<v Speaker 1>Dillon's wedding. He's a packer running back and it was

0:29:00.040 --> 0:29:02.840
<v Speaker 1>up in Wisconsin. You know, it's everyone in Wisconsin somehow

0:29:02.920 --> 0:29:05.400
<v Speaker 1>knows each other. And I'm pretty sure everyone in Wisconsin

0:29:05.560 --> 0:29:07.720
<v Speaker 1>was at this wedding. I want to get a J

0:29:07.840 --> 0:29:09.239
<v Speaker 1>on the show. By the way, we got to get him,

0:29:10.040 --> 0:29:14.440
<v Speaker 1>but they had a three hour cocktail hour. I guess

0:29:14.760 --> 0:29:17.880
<v Speaker 1>that's just very Wisconsin e too. But my god, my

0:29:17.960 --> 0:29:20.080
<v Speaker 1>husband had to like carry me out of there and

0:29:20.160 --> 0:29:22.800
<v Speaker 1>my dad picked us up because it was right down

0:29:22.840 --> 0:29:24.800
<v Speaker 1>the road from their house, and he's like, I'll drive

0:29:24.840 --> 0:29:28.080
<v Speaker 1>you to this wedding. Oh my god. So that that

0:29:28.240 --> 0:29:31.360
<v Speaker 1>post baby low tolerance is no joke, but a three

0:29:31.440 --> 0:29:36.440
<v Speaker 1>hour cocktail hour and postpartum woman not a good combination. Yeah,

0:29:36.480 --> 0:29:38.000
<v Speaker 1>I can't do anything for three hour. I can make

0:29:38.120 --> 0:29:39.840
<v Speaker 1>like I can watch sports for three hours. It's like

0:29:39.920 --> 0:29:42.520
<v Speaker 1>the only thing I could do without falling asleep. So

0:29:42.640 --> 0:29:45.680
<v Speaker 1>three hour, Yeah, you must have been having fun. Good job, Age.

0:29:45.720 --> 0:29:47.640
<v Speaker 1>I hope he's on the show because I want to

0:29:47.640 --> 0:29:50.800
<v Speaker 1>ask about the three hour cocktail party. Oh my god.

0:29:51.280 --> 0:29:55.480
<v Speaker 1>He's a great dude, especially looking forward this season, you know,

0:29:55.560 --> 0:29:57.880
<v Speaker 1>and we can get into the NFC next week. We're

0:29:57.880 --> 0:29:59.360
<v Speaker 1>going to break down the a f C today. But

0:30:00.080 --> 0:30:01.960
<v Speaker 1>he's gonna have a big year. He's gonna have a

0:30:02.000 --> 0:30:04.160
<v Speaker 1>really big year. And he was the only player to

0:30:04.280 --> 0:30:07.120
<v Speaker 1>score in the forty Niners score a touchdown in the

0:30:07.160 --> 0:30:09.959
<v Speaker 1>forty Niners Packers game to end the season, and then

0:30:10.040 --> 0:30:11.880
<v Speaker 1>he got hurt, so that was I mean, there's so

0:30:11.960 --> 0:30:14.240
<v Speaker 1>much to talk about with A. J. Dillon, with the Packers,

0:30:14.320 --> 0:30:16.520
<v Speaker 1>with the NFC. I cannot wait to get to it.

0:30:16.600 --> 0:30:17.920
<v Speaker 1>But what do you say we break down the a

0:30:18.120 --> 0:30:21.600
<v Speaker 1>f C. Now? Yeah, let's let's do it, because I

0:30:21.600 --> 0:30:25.640
<v Speaker 1>already feel myself wanting to talk NFC and I'll cap

0:30:25.800 --> 0:30:28.440
<v Speaker 1>that with a j deal. I'm heavily looking at all

0:30:28.520 --> 0:30:30.680
<v Speaker 1>his I'm gonna be looking at his props weekly. That's

0:30:30.760 --> 0:30:34.280
<v Speaker 1>someone I'm definitely targeting prop wise and okay, over guy.

0:30:34.760 --> 0:30:36.720
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, it's it's a it's a f C S turn,

0:30:36.840 --> 0:30:40.120
<v Speaker 1>and it should be because there's a lot to talk about,

0:30:40.400 --> 0:30:43.280
<v Speaker 1>both exits and those wise and also just storyline wise.

0:30:43.320 --> 0:30:45.160
<v Speaker 1>It kind of feels almost like the w W E

0:30:45.680 --> 0:30:49.760
<v Speaker 1>with these storylines, like you couldn't have scripted him any better.

0:30:49.920 --> 0:30:51.520
<v Speaker 1>You really couldn't have. I don't know where you want

0:30:51.560 --> 0:30:54.600
<v Speaker 1>to begin. We could just throw a dart at a division. Yeah,

0:30:54.680 --> 0:30:56.840
<v Speaker 1>let's see that you do it. Let' let's start a

0:30:56.920 --> 0:30:59.360
<v Speaker 1>f C North. Let's start with Cleveland your team. And

0:30:59.440 --> 0:31:01.880
<v Speaker 1>I was joke about the massage parlors, but I'm not kidding.

0:31:02.000 --> 0:31:06.000
<v Speaker 1>It's in Deshaun Watson's contract that the only treatment he

0:31:06.120 --> 0:31:10.320
<v Speaker 1>can receive is with team personnel. And I mean, we

0:31:10.480 --> 0:31:12.000
<v Speaker 1>we heard all this stuff with Kyler Murray and the

0:31:12.040 --> 0:31:14.640
<v Speaker 1>Cardinals having to do four hours of homework on his own,

0:31:14.760 --> 0:31:20.000
<v Speaker 1>like all that. It's all funny as layman as non athletes,

0:31:20.120 --> 0:31:24.640
<v Speaker 1>non athletic regular people narps. But I do love that

0:31:24.720 --> 0:31:27.280
<v Speaker 1>and Deshaun Watson's contract, he can't go get a massage,

0:31:27.760 --> 0:31:29.920
<v Speaker 1>So I was having some fun with it. But is

0:31:29.960 --> 0:31:34.040
<v Speaker 1>the vibe in Cleveland in tense? Are people mad? Are

0:31:34.080 --> 0:31:37.160
<v Speaker 1>people excited about Deshan? I mean, just from some of

0:31:37.680 --> 0:31:40.280
<v Speaker 1>my talks with some of the Browns fans here, it's

0:31:40.720 --> 0:31:43.000
<v Speaker 1>to them it's just kind of like, we just really

0:31:43.040 --> 0:31:45.600
<v Speaker 1>want to see him play and not. I think it

0:31:45.680 --> 0:31:48.520
<v Speaker 1>was the not knowing that was driving everyone crazy. Is

0:31:48.520 --> 0:31:50.520
<v Speaker 1>he gonna get a year? Is he gonna get like?

0:31:50.640 --> 0:31:52.520
<v Speaker 1>I think it was more that I think now that

0:31:53.160 --> 0:31:55.840
<v Speaker 1>or at least four just for now, is the suspension

0:31:55.920 --> 0:31:57.680
<v Speaker 1>is what it is? I mean, I know there's appeals

0:31:57.720 --> 0:31:59.720
<v Speaker 1>and stuff. I think now that they could just set

0:31:59.760 --> 0:32:03.120
<v Speaker 1>there like the Jacoby Brissette era has begun, you know,

0:32:03.280 --> 0:32:06.560
<v Speaker 1>so I think they're gonna probably also want to extend

0:32:06.680 --> 0:32:09.160
<v Speaker 1>Kareem Hunt. I mean, I know he wants a contract extension.

0:32:09.240 --> 0:32:11.280
<v Speaker 1>Maybe they shout it up like they're just gonna have

0:32:11.400 --> 0:32:14.120
<v Speaker 1>to heavily rely on those two running backs. And uh,

0:32:14.480 --> 0:32:17.000
<v Speaker 1>I know they upgraded their receiving corps. They made a

0:32:17.040 --> 0:32:19.800
<v Speaker 1>lot of moves. Defense has always been pretty stout in

0:32:19.840 --> 0:32:22.200
<v Speaker 1>the last few years, but this to me, the North

0:32:22.320 --> 0:32:26.160
<v Speaker 1>is the toughest division because it has the most questions.

0:32:26.360 --> 0:32:28.800
<v Speaker 1>Like we could talk about the Steelers all we want

0:32:28.880 --> 0:32:31.840
<v Speaker 1>and say it isn't to be like a new QB.

0:32:32.000 --> 0:32:34.560
<v Speaker 1>I get all that, but they still got Mike Tomlin

0:32:34.680 --> 0:32:37.360
<v Speaker 1>and now Brian Flores as a coach there, Like you

0:32:37.480 --> 0:32:40.400
<v Speaker 1>could outcoach your way into a lot of winds in

0:32:40.480 --> 0:32:43.680
<v Speaker 1>this division. That's a good point. That's a good point.

0:32:43.720 --> 0:32:45.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if I think they're the toughest division.

0:32:45.480 --> 0:32:47.680
<v Speaker 1>I think the a f C West because of the

0:32:47.720 --> 0:32:52.480
<v Speaker 1>good quarterback play. I mean Raiders, Chiefs, Chargers, Denver, Let's ride.

0:32:52.800 --> 0:32:54.760
<v Speaker 1>So I think a f C West maybe the better

0:32:54.920 --> 0:32:57.520
<v Speaker 1>quarterback division, and at n mg M, a f C

0:32:57.680 --> 0:33:00.320
<v Speaker 1>West has the best odds to win the a f C.

0:33:01.200 --> 0:33:03.400
<v Speaker 1>But you bring up good points. I mean Steelers, what

0:33:03.480 --> 0:33:06.400
<v Speaker 1>do you see there with their quarterback shuffle? It's kind

0:33:06.440 --> 0:33:10.320
<v Speaker 1>of like pick your best of these three. Mitch Robinsky

0:33:10.480 --> 0:33:13.160
<v Speaker 1>seems to be kind of the leading candidate right now,

0:33:13.240 --> 0:33:14.840
<v Speaker 1>and then the draft pick. Can you pick it? And

0:33:14.880 --> 0:33:17.160
<v Speaker 1>then Mason Rudolph who's been the old guy there and

0:33:17.240 --> 0:33:19.680
<v Speaker 1>knows the playbook the best. But I don't know, Steelers

0:33:19.720 --> 0:33:22.720
<v Speaker 1>don't really raise my pulse at all. No, and please

0:33:22.760 --> 0:33:24.800
<v Speaker 1>let me I didn't mean the North is like the

0:33:24.920 --> 0:33:27.320
<v Speaker 1>toughest in terms of skill. I mean it's the toughest

0:33:27.360 --> 0:33:30.880
<v Speaker 1>of the side who's gonna win this division at least

0:33:30.920 --> 0:33:32.400
<v Speaker 1>with the And I know the West is like that too,

0:33:32.400 --> 0:33:34.520
<v Speaker 1>at least with the West. Like if if you said

0:33:35.080 --> 0:33:37.640
<v Speaker 1>my Chiefs are gonna win the division, like I can

0:33:37.680 --> 0:33:39.520
<v Speaker 1>make an argument, but no one's really going to be

0:33:39.760 --> 0:33:42.200
<v Speaker 1>like that has no chance. Like in the North, I

0:33:42.320 --> 0:33:44.960
<v Speaker 1>really maybe with the exception of the Steelers, I I

0:33:45.080 --> 0:33:48.360
<v Speaker 1>have no idea who's really coming out of this division.

0:33:49.000 --> 0:33:52.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what the Steelers I my opinion. Again,

0:33:52.400 --> 0:33:54.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm not like XS and oh is hard. I just

0:33:55.000 --> 0:33:58.560
<v Speaker 1>unleashed the rookie I know, least here. I know you

0:33:58.800 --> 0:34:00.800
<v Speaker 1>like you want to bring rookie is along slowly, but

0:34:00.880 --> 0:34:02.480
<v Speaker 1>rookies play a lot more than they ever have in

0:34:02.520 --> 0:34:05.640
<v Speaker 1>the NFL. Quarterback Like, let's see what we got. Because

0:34:06.080 --> 0:34:08.319
<v Speaker 1>unless it's really like you think you have to bring

0:34:08.400 --> 0:34:12.440
<v Speaker 1>them along slowly, or unless Mr Rabinsky really can reclaim

0:34:13.160 --> 0:34:15.200
<v Speaker 1>the hype he had around the draft, I don't I

0:34:15.239 --> 0:34:17.520
<v Speaker 1>don't know if it's Mason Rudolph, Like, are you really

0:34:17.560 --> 0:34:20.880
<v Speaker 1>gonna He's you know, we're really going to compete for

0:34:20.920 --> 0:34:23.560
<v Speaker 1>the division. So I'm not really worried about that. I

0:34:23.680 --> 0:34:27.800
<v Speaker 1>want to know, I'm most curious about the Ravens and

0:34:28.080 --> 0:34:31.480
<v Speaker 1>and Lamar you know, loses Hollywood brown you know, the Drafters.

0:34:31.640 --> 0:34:34.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm most curious what we and no one's really talking

0:34:34.960 --> 0:34:37.319
<v Speaker 1>about the Ravens as much in that division. It's really

0:34:37.719 --> 0:34:40.879
<v Speaker 1>Bengals and Browns getting all the chatter right now. Yeah,

0:34:40.960 --> 0:34:43.279
<v Speaker 1>and when people do talk about the Ravens, it's about

0:34:43.360 --> 0:34:46.560
<v Speaker 1>Lamar Jackson's contract. You know, he's wanting an extension. He's

0:34:46.600 --> 0:34:48.920
<v Speaker 1>on the last year of his rookie contract and his

0:34:49.640 --> 0:34:52.400
<v Speaker 1>mom is doing the negotiating. You know, he doesn't have

0:34:52.480 --> 0:34:56.719
<v Speaker 1>an agent and his mom's his manager, and this is

0:34:56.760 --> 0:35:00.239
<v Speaker 1>just I think more from a you know, personal worry.

0:35:00.280 --> 0:35:03.480
<v Speaker 1>Everyone's curious how this one plays out. And Lamar Jackson

0:35:03.560 --> 0:35:05.360
<v Speaker 1>is one of those players who's easy to cheer for.

0:35:05.520 --> 0:35:07.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if it's because he's so funny on

0:35:07.400 --> 0:35:11.080
<v Speaker 1>Twitter or there's something kind of like naive about him.

0:35:11.160 --> 0:35:12.800
<v Speaker 1>And I mean that in the nicest way, like he

0:35:12.880 --> 0:35:16.320
<v Speaker 1>seems kind of unassuming. I've interviewed him once his Heisman

0:35:16.360 --> 0:35:19.440
<v Speaker 1>season at Louisville, And I mean, I just was like,

0:35:19.560 --> 0:35:22.080
<v Speaker 1>he's a just a nice kid. And again he was

0:35:22.160 --> 0:35:24.440
<v Speaker 1>in college then, but even now, Like there's something kind

0:35:24.440 --> 0:35:28.080
<v Speaker 1>of sweet about not having an agent. I don't know,

0:35:28.239 --> 0:35:30.920
<v Speaker 1>you're in show biz, what do you think? Well, I

0:35:31.080 --> 0:35:35.920
<v Speaker 1>tell you, if my mom was negotiating my contract for Entourage, right,

0:35:36.320 --> 0:35:39.239
<v Speaker 1>he would give it to Anthony. She probably would think.

0:35:39.400 --> 0:35:41.480
<v Speaker 1>She would for sure think I should be the highest

0:35:41.520 --> 0:35:44.200
<v Speaker 1>paid actor of all time. That's just how she views me.

0:35:44.560 --> 0:35:47.400
<v Speaker 1>She thinks I'm the greatest actor to ever walk the

0:35:47.480 --> 0:35:49.480
<v Speaker 1>face of the earth. And just like I'm pretty sure

0:35:49.560 --> 0:35:51.920
<v Speaker 1>Lamar's mom thinks he's the greatest quarterback to ever live

0:35:51.960 --> 0:35:55.200
<v Speaker 1>and she should think that that's her son. And when

0:35:55.239 --> 0:35:58.520
<v Speaker 1>push comes to shove, I'm always like, moms are the best.

0:35:58.719 --> 0:36:01.680
<v Speaker 1>So I think that it's gonna work out. I don't

0:36:01.760 --> 0:36:04.120
<v Speaker 1>think it's gonna be that big of a deal. I

0:36:04.200 --> 0:36:06.400
<v Speaker 1>think he's going to get what he should get and

0:36:06.520 --> 0:36:08.440
<v Speaker 1>what he deserves because he's a great quarterback. And I

0:36:08.480 --> 0:36:11.239
<v Speaker 1>do feel like we're not we're not talking about him

0:36:11.280 --> 0:36:14.200
<v Speaker 1>as like the player as much. And I can't forget

0:36:14.239 --> 0:36:17.440
<v Speaker 1>he's not that far removed from an MVP season. They

0:36:17.480 --> 0:36:19.880
<v Speaker 1>are well coached, they do have good backs, the defense

0:36:20.000 --> 0:36:22.840
<v Speaker 1>is always good. They are the favorites in the division

0:36:23.160 --> 0:36:26.160
<v Speaker 1>as of right now, even over the Bengals. Bet MGM

0:36:26.200 --> 0:36:28.040
<v Speaker 1>has him at plus one sixties. So if I wore

0:36:28.120 --> 0:36:31.480
<v Speaker 1>picking my division winner, I would lean Ravens at the

0:36:31.480 --> 0:36:34.880
<v Speaker 1>plus one sixty, although I'm not buying any Bengals hangover right,

0:36:34.920 --> 0:36:37.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know is that really a thing? Super

0:36:37.840 --> 0:36:40.600
<v Speaker 1>Bowl loss? Hangover? How is that a thing? Is it

0:36:40.680 --> 0:36:44.800
<v Speaker 1>a thing? I think because then they assume that everyone

0:36:44.960 --> 0:36:47.400
<v Speaker 1>comes in like all bitter the training camp. I think

0:36:47.480 --> 0:36:49.520
<v Speaker 1>quite the opposite. I think you had a long season,

0:36:49.960 --> 0:36:52.640
<v Speaker 1>you restructure how you want, and everyone knows the storyline

0:36:52.680 --> 0:36:54.719
<v Speaker 1>with the Bengals last year was bad. Old line. Well,

0:36:54.760 --> 0:36:58.080
<v Speaker 1>they've greatly improved that week area. They've had three new

0:36:58.160 --> 0:37:00.640
<v Speaker 1>starters now, and so I don't know, but we should

0:37:00.640 --> 0:37:02.600
<v Speaker 1>do that. Let's really pick our team for each division.

0:37:03.160 --> 0:37:06.080
<v Speaker 1>You're taking the Ravens. I think I'm gonna take the Bengals.

0:37:06.120 --> 0:37:08.160
<v Speaker 1>And I'm marking this in our notes because we cannot

0:37:08.160 --> 0:37:11.719
<v Speaker 1>forget this. You hear me, No, we can't, and and

0:37:11.920 --> 0:37:15.040
<v Speaker 1>and look plus eight there. The Ravens aren't heavy favorites.

0:37:15.120 --> 0:37:17.480
<v Speaker 1>The Bengals are right there. I don't buy Super Bowl hangover.

0:37:17.560 --> 0:37:20.000
<v Speaker 1>I think the only thing with the Bengals that could

0:37:20.040 --> 0:37:23.040
<v Speaker 1>happen is you're not catching anyone by surprise anymore. Everyone

0:37:23.080 --> 0:37:26.759
<v Speaker 1>knows you have three amazing receivers. Everyone know Burrow is outstanding,

0:37:27.239 --> 0:37:30.160
<v Speaker 1>and the defense, which got criticized all year last year,

0:37:30.400 --> 0:37:33.120
<v Speaker 1>had one of the best playoff runs the defense has had.

0:37:33.800 --> 0:37:36.879
<v Speaker 1>So I don't think it's hangover. I think a lot

0:37:36.920 --> 0:37:39.719
<v Speaker 1>of teams now know you guys are great, so they

0:37:39.800 --> 0:37:43.600
<v Speaker 1>will maybe prepare even harder than they would have potentially so,

0:37:44.480 --> 0:37:47.080
<v Speaker 1>but I I respect your pick, But yeah, I think

0:37:47.120 --> 0:37:49.880
<v Speaker 1>those are the two teams to beat over there. Okay,

0:37:49.960 --> 0:37:51.920
<v Speaker 1>see it's fun to disagree a little bit. Okay, we

0:37:52.040 --> 0:37:54.720
<v Speaker 1>mentioned the AFC West, thought to be the best quarterback

0:37:54.760 --> 0:37:56.880
<v Speaker 1>division and all of football. Right now, I made a

0:37:56.960 --> 0:37:59.120
<v Speaker 1>joke about this ride wrestle. Well, let me hear you

0:37:59.200 --> 0:38:03.799
<v Speaker 1>say it. Let's hear let's right, let's ride that's pretty good.

0:38:04.120 --> 0:38:06.360
<v Speaker 1>I think Keen Alan says it better than everybody. I

0:38:06.440 --> 0:38:09.560
<v Speaker 1>watched that clip a hundred times today. Let's play that

0:38:09.680 --> 0:38:15.120
<v Speaker 1>in right here. That's pretty good. And I think Russell

0:38:15.160 --> 0:38:18.839
<v Speaker 1>Wilson is just so easy to make fun of. I mean,

0:38:19.640 --> 0:38:21.719
<v Speaker 1>would you be willing to say on camera that he's

0:38:21.760 --> 0:38:26.800
<v Speaker 1>kind of a square? Um? No, because I don't know

0:38:26.880 --> 0:38:29.799
<v Speaker 1>in person, maybe his public persona. I really don't. I've

0:38:29.840 --> 0:38:31.239
<v Speaker 1>I've met him a couple of times, but I have

0:38:31.360 --> 0:38:35.120
<v Speaker 1>no idea to say that like that's him as a person.

0:38:35.239 --> 0:38:38.520
<v Speaker 1>I think maybe the image that he's presenting, whether he

0:38:38.600 --> 0:38:41.080
<v Speaker 1>wants it to be or not, is that maybe that's

0:38:41.120 --> 0:38:43.680
<v Speaker 1>what he wants. I don't know. I wouldn't say no,

0:38:43.880 --> 0:38:46.480
<v Speaker 1>he's that guy's a square, but I'll take anyone's word

0:38:46.520 --> 0:38:47.839
<v Speaker 1>for it. Who knows him better than I do. I'm

0:38:47.840 --> 0:38:51.360
<v Speaker 1>not gonna question. I do respect that that's where he

0:38:51.600 --> 0:38:53.799
<v Speaker 1>ended up in that division. I don't know how much

0:38:54.280 --> 0:38:56.080
<v Speaker 1>control he had over where he was going to go,

0:38:56.840 --> 0:39:00.359
<v Speaker 1>but man, for any division that you I mean, think

0:39:00.400 --> 0:39:01.840
<v Speaker 1>about him in the a f C South. If he

0:39:01.960 --> 0:39:04.040
<v Speaker 1>ended up in on like the Cults instead of Matt Ryan,

0:39:04.360 --> 0:39:08.400
<v Speaker 1>a lot softer landing for him and the freaking a

0:39:08.560 --> 0:39:11.759
<v Speaker 1>f C West. So I am excited. This is this

0:39:11.920 --> 0:39:15.080
<v Speaker 1>is the heavyweight division everyone's lining up. These are gonna

0:39:15.120 --> 0:39:18.799
<v Speaker 1>be you know, pay per view events, these games, Oh

0:39:18.920 --> 0:39:22.759
<v Speaker 1>for sure, for sure. We know chiefs are cooking. Uh

0:39:23.000 --> 0:39:24.759
<v Speaker 1>you know, I'm here in kans City, so I'm watching

0:39:24.800 --> 0:39:27.520
<v Speaker 1>a lot of the local coverage of it. And actually,

0:39:27.560 --> 0:39:29.879
<v Speaker 1>a cool thing with this whole division is the wide

0:39:29.960 --> 0:39:33.520
<v Speaker 1>receiver market trickle effect. Because as the Raiders got Davante

0:39:33.600 --> 0:39:38.120
<v Speaker 1>Adams and paid him, he got the bag, it sent

0:39:38.320 --> 0:39:41.040
<v Speaker 1>this whole domino effect and that ended up affecting the

0:39:41.120 --> 0:39:43.800
<v Speaker 1>Chiefs because then we saw Tyreek Kill go to Miami

0:39:44.280 --> 0:39:47.239
<v Speaker 1>for like record money, they got Juju Smith Schuster from

0:39:47.280 --> 0:39:51.560
<v Speaker 1>the Steelers. All these receivers started just getting paid like

0:39:51.800 --> 0:39:54.520
<v Speaker 1>crazy and just moving like crazy. And a lot of

0:39:54.600 --> 0:39:58.080
<v Speaker 1>this was pre NFL Draft. So that's definitely a storyline

0:39:58.120 --> 0:40:00.200
<v Speaker 1>here as we look at the f C West, as

0:40:00.239 --> 0:40:03.359
<v Speaker 1>we look at the NFL in general, is all these

0:40:03.440 --> 0:40:05.800
<v Speaker 1>new homes for all these new receivers. And then, not

0:40:05.920 --> 0:40:08.760
<v Speaker 1>to mention, the draft happens and it was so heavy

0:40:09.239 --> 0:40:14.120
<v Speaker 1>for wide receivers and so heavy defense. So yeah, five

0:40:14.160 --> 0:40:16.040
<v Speaker 1>wide receivers were taken in the first round of the

0:40:16.120 --> 0:40:20.759
<v Speaker 1>NFL Draft and the first five draft picks or defense.

0:40:20.960 --> 0:40:23.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's it was crazy. So it is fun

0:40:23.840 --> 0:40:26.600
<v Speaker 1>when we talk about some of these quarterbacks that none

0:40:26.640 --> 0:40:28.200
<v Speaker 1>of these I mean, can you pick it aside. But

0:40:28.280 --> 0:40:31.719
<v Speaker 1>none of these are that rookie you know, Marvel that

0:40:31.840 --> 0:40:33.960
<v Speaker 1>we're so excited to talk about. These are names that

0:40:34.239 --> 0:40:38.400
<v Speaker 1>were used to spitting around. So with that, Derek Carr, Raiders,

0:40:38.840 --> 0:40:43.680
<v Speaker 1>with the Vonte Adams, what do you expect in Vegas? Okay? Uh? Well,

0:40:43.800 --> 0:40:47.600
<v Speaker 1>for you are not getting off the Chiefs conversation this

0:40:47.760 --> 0:40:49.960
<v Speaker 1>easy at all. We're going to stick with them. We're

0:40:50.000 --> 0:40:51.720
<v Speaker 1>gonna We'll come back to the Chiefs in the second

0:40:51.719 --> 0:40:55.480
<v Speaker 1>because I have some but talking about the Raiders, and

0:40:55.560 --> 0:40:59.800
<v Speaker 1>again I go off of gut and feel anytime I do.

0:41:00.080 --> 0:41:02.359
<v Speaker 1>I do the massive amounts of research, and I listened

0:41:02.400 --> 0:41:06.439
<v Speaker 1>to every sharp do their trends of why they should

0:41:06.480 --> 0:41:08.719
<v Speaker 1>bet this team. I get all that, and I'm not

0:41:08.840 --> 0:41:10.839
<v Speaker 1>smart enough to keep up with all of it. I've

0:41:10.880 --> 0:41:12.680
<v Speaker 1>won a lot of bets in my life, and I've

0:41:12.719 --> 0:41:15.400
<v Speaker 1>lost a lot of bets. But I when I get

0:41:15.440 --> 0:41:17.160
<v Speaker 1>the feeling, I get the feeling for me. If you're

0:41:17.160 --> 0:41:19.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna put money on anyone in this division, I'm just

0:41:19.480 --> 0:41:24.320
<v Speaker 1>talking about value play money wise. Raiders plus six fifty

0:41:25.080 --> 0:41:27.520
<v Speaker 1>coming inside and came in second in division last year.

0:41:28.160 --> 0:41:30.200
<v Speaker 1>They lost twice to your Chiefs. I think they kind

0:41:30.200 --> 0:41:32.520
<v Speaker 1>of split with everyone else, or they swept the Broncos.

0:41:32.560 --> 0:41:35.279
<v Speaker 1>And I think they actually split with the Chargers. I

0:41:35.360 --> 0:41:38.080
<v Speaker 1>think that's the best odds. I can't really you know,

0:41:38.160 --> 0:41:41.040
<v Speaker 1>Chiefs or plus one fifty five Broncos not bad. Plus

0:41:41.080 --> 0:41:45.080
<v Speaker 1>two sixties pretty good. Chiefs Raiders are plus six fifty Davante.

0:41:46.080 --> 0:41:48.080
<v Speaker 1>Everyone's saying like, oh, what's Aaron Rodgers gonna be like

0:41:48.120 --> 0:41:51.000
<v Speaker 1>without Davante Adams. What's Davante Adams gonna be without? I

0:41:51.080 --> 0:41:52.960
<v Speaker 1>think both of them are gonna be fine. I think

0:41:52.960 --> 0:41:56.640
<v Speaker 1>they're both amazing players. I think Aaron Rodgers are going

0:41:56.680 --> 0:41:59.719
<v Speaker 1>to elevate all the receivers in Green Bay and I

0:41:59.800 --> 0:42:03.360
<v Speaker 1>think Davante islands and they're gonna be unstoppable. I really do.

0:42:03.680 --> 0:42:06.640
<v Speaker 1>And that's what I would put some money on the

0:42:06.760 --> 0:42:09.759
<v Speaker 1>Raiders for sure to win that division. And it's the

0:42:09.840 --> 0:42:11.800
<v Speaker 1>long shot, and I respect that and it should be,

0:42:12.280 --> 0:42:14.080
<v Speaker 1>but I think there's a lot of value that the

0:42:14.160 --> 0:42:17.160
<v Speaker 1>Raiders were tough last year without Davante Adams. And I

0:42:17.200 --> 0:42:19.000
<v Speaker 1>know Russell Wilson's in the division, so you might not

0:42:19.120 --> 0:42:23.120
<v Speaker 1>get to Broncos wins. But if I'm putting down any

0:42:23.200 --> 0:42:27.120
<v Speaker 1>of my heart earned entourage cash down I'm gonna put

0:42:27.320 --> 0:42:29.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna I would put a little bit on the

0:42:29.640 --> 0:42:32.000
<v Speaker 1>Raiders to win that division, but it's a blood bath

0:42:32.080 --> 0:42:35.480
<v Speaker 1>in that division. And think about everything the Raiders went

0:42:35.560 --> 0:42:38.080
<v Speaker 1>through last year and they still were able to have

0:42:38.200 --> 0:42:41.960
<v Speaker 1>piecemeal together a really great season with an exciting finish

0:42:42.160 --> 0:42:44.200
<v Speaker 1>and in good run there. But did you see what

0:42:44.280 --> 0:42:46.440
<v Speaker 1>Davante Adams said when they asked him what's it like

0:42:46.600 --> 0:42:49.080
<v Speaker 1>going from Aaron Rodgers to Derek Carr And he said, well,

0:42:49.160 --> 0:42:51.279
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's it's going to be different going from

0:42:51.360 --> 0:42:53.520
<v Speaker 1>one Hall of Famer to another Hall of Famer. And

0:42:53.600 --> 0:42:55.759
<v Speaker 1>then they asked Aaron Rodgers what's it like going from

0:42:55.880 --> 0:42:59.040
<v Speaker 1>Davante Adams to Alan Lazard and he said, well, you know,

0:42:59.600 --> 0:43:01.840
<v Speaker 1>it's the flight going from one Hall of Famer to

0:43:01.920 --> 0:43:04.520
<v Speaker 1>another Hall of Famer. I I live for some of

0:43:04.560 --> 0:43:08.320
<v Speaker 1>these training camp press clips, like people, it's really happening.

0:43:08.400 --> 0:43:11.120
<v Speaker 1>Like you could tell those guys had a lot of Yeah,

0:43:11.160 --> 0:43:13.280
<v Speaker 1>they had a lot of respect for each other obviously,

0:43:13.480 --> 0:43:16.719
<v Speaker 1>but I think it's great. But yeah, they have some

0:43:16.880 --> 0:43:20.840
<v Speaker 1>weapons there and in Vegas, but obviously like way more fandom.

0:43:21.239 --> 0:43:22.759
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I know there's a huge Raider fans, but

0:43:23.080 --> 0:43:26.080
<v Speaker 1>in that building. You know, they turned out last season

0:43:26.200 --> 0:43:28.239
<v Speaker 1>like they had they had a real home field too.

0:43:28.480 --> 0:43:33.040
<v Speaker 1>So in Chandler Jones on defense, they're stacking up new coach,

0:43:33.080 --> 0:43:35.400
<v Speaker 1>and you know they're gonna show up in those Charger games.

0:43:35.640 --> 0:43:38.080
<v Speaker 1>You know the Raider fans are going to show up

0:43:38.120 --> 0:43:40.480
<v Speaker 1>in those Charger games. So that road game is like

0:43:40.560 --> 0:43:44.920
<v Speaker 1>another home game. So I'm looking at the Raiders hardcore. Okay,

0:43:44.960 --> 0:43:46.400
<v Speaker 1>what do you want to say about the Chiefs that

0:43:46.480 --> 0:43:49.600
<v Speaker 1>you haven't said? When's the last time you were this

0:43:49.760 --> 0:43:56.040
<v Speaker 1>nervous about a Chief season? Oh? Home, like before you

0:43:56.120 --> 0:43:59.200
<v Speaker 1>have to be a little bit nervous, not that like

0:43:59.320 --> 0:44:02.760
<v Speaker 1>you aren't gonna be good, but your expectations are obviously

0:44:03.239 --> 0:44:06.359
<v Speaker 1>super Bowl championship, those are your expectations because they're great,

0:44:07.040 --> 0:44:10.080
<v Speaker 1>but you gotta be I really looked up and down

0:44:10.200 --> 0:44:13.120
<v Speaker 1>that roster. It's a great roster, but you do see

0:44:13.160 --> 0:44:18.000
<v Speaker 1>that one big missing Tyree Kill name there and kind

0:44:18.000 --> 0:44:20.279
<v Speaker 1>of trying to look at I know they're trying to

0:44:20.280 --> 0:44:23.080
<v Speaker 1>plug the hole with four guys and all that. Yeah,

0:44:23.920 --> 0:44:26.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I'm not down on them, but a

0:44:26.120 --> 0:44:29.080
<v Speaker 1>little nervous. What about McCole Hardman, He had such a

0:44:29.160 --> 0:44:31.399
<v Speaker 1>good season he's in what like his third or fourth

0:44:31.480 --> 0:44:33.600
<v Speaker 1>year or something. He went to Georgia with me. I

0:44:33.880 --> 0:44:37.000
<v Speaker 1>know him. I love Nicole, but then also Jujus ms Schuster,

0:44:37.160 --> 0:44:39.480
<v Speaker 1>he's got some wiggle in there. He's he's great, and

0:44:39.520 --> 0:44:41.399
<v Speaker 1>then their run game is gonna be so much better

0:44:41.480 --> 0:44:44.120
<v Speaker 1>with Clyde Edwards Hilaire. He's a great number two. And

0:44:44.200 --> 0:44:46.960
<v Speaker 1>then they've invested so heavily in their old line. I'm

0:44:47.000 --> 0:44:48.880
<v Speaker 1>not that worried about the chief, So I was surprised.

0:44:48.880 --> 0:44:51.360
<v Speaker 1>Do you even ask me that. I'm just trying to spice.

0:44:51.360 --> 0:44:54.000
<v Speaker 1>So I do think Edwards Hilary is going to be

0:44:54.520 --> 0:44:57.200
<v Speaker 1>a big you know, I think they gotta really I know,

0:44:57.400 --> 0:44:59.719
<v Speaker 1>keep saying unleash and might be trying to throw the

0:44:59.719 --> 0:45:01.400
<v Speaker 1>pod cast name, and I do think they got to

0:45:01.480 --> 0:45:03.680
<v Speaker 1>unleash him and like, let just let him cook a

0:45:03.760 --> 0:45:06.520
<v Speaker 1>little bit, because uh, and I listened to all this

0:45:06.560 --> 0:45:09.400
<v Speaker 1>stuff about mahomes how he was looking to downfield and

0:45:09.480 --> 0:45:12.080
<v Speaker 1>holding onto the ball too long and there's fifteen yard

0:45:12.239 --> 0:45:14.680
<v Speaker 1>routes that were open that he passed. And I love

0:45:14.760 --> 0:45:17.040
<v Speaker 1>my Homes's he's I think he's my favorite quarterback to

0:45:17.160 --> 0:45:19.920
<v Speaker 1>watch in the NFL. Yeah, I was just checking with you.

0:45:19.960 --> 0:45:21.160
<v Speaker 1>I want to see if I can get a little

0:45:21.200 --> 0:45:23.400
<v Speaker 1>poker face out of you, but if you have any nerves,

0:45:23.520 --> 0:45:26.799
<v Speaker 1>but well, well played, well played, well a little fresh

0:45:26.880 --> 0:45:29.680
<v Speaker 1>prince of bel air pun mahomes to hell Aire. I

0:45:29.719 --> 0:45:33.600
<v Speaker 1>think we're gonna be hearing that a lot. I can't you.

0:45:33.760 --> 0:45:35.920
<v Speaker 1>I stole that from somewhere. I don't even remember I

0:45:36.000 --> 0:45:38.800
<v Speaker 1>hear that. Okay, charges, let's finish up the West Chargers.

0:45:39.239 --> 0:45:42.640
<v Speaker 1>They've been underachieving. They bring in Khalil Mack on defense,

0:45:42.960 --> 0:45:45.120
<v Speaker 1>They've they've stacked up a little bit on defense with

0:45:45.200 --> 0:45:47.480
<v Speaker 1>cornerback j C. Jackson too. That was a big signing.

0:45:47.800 --> 0:45:51.239
<v Speaker 1>They sailed Joey Bosa and then Justin Herbert, who at

0:45:51.280 --> 0:45:54.239
<v Speaker 1>any moment I think can be m v P. Yeah,

0:45:54.360 --> 0:45:57.240
<v Speaker 1>I and I do think we joked about the Keenan

0:45:57.320 --> 0:46:01.200
<v Speaker 1>Allen clip earlier. He's kind of like mocking Russell Wilson.

0:46:01.400 --> 0:46:04.480
<v Speaker 1>But I think that's exactly what that team needs. Not

0:46:04.600 --> 0:46:06.520
<v Speaker 1>saying that it was like a like a swagger clip

0:46:06.600 --> 0:46:09.359
<v Speaker 1>from him, but that like, and to me, that's kind

0:46:09.400 --> 0:46:11.399
<v Speaker 1>of like, I don't know how serious, not that they're

0:46:11.400 --> 0:46:13.040
<v Speaker 1>not taking the Broncos serious on the field, but like

0:46:13.160 --> 0:46:15.720
<v Speaker 1>I think if you asked him, he thinks the Charges

0:46:15.719 --> 0:46:17.520
<v Speaker 1>are way better than the Broncos, and the Broncos are

0:46:17.520 --> 0:46:19.440
<v Speaker 1>going to be a problem for a lot of teams.

0:46:19.520 --> 0:46:22.160
<v Speaker 1>I think that's exactly what the Chargers need. They need

0:46:22.160 --> 0:46:23.680
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of that swag, a little bit of

0:46:23.760 --> 0:46:27.800
<v Speaker 1>that confidence. Keenan Allen has earned every right to be

0:46:28.080 --> 0:46:31.400
<v Speaker 1>confident going up against the Broncos or any team in

0:46:31.440 --> 0:46:34.320
<v Speaker 1>the West. For the for the Charges, it's always like,

0:46:34.600 --> 0:46:36.920
<v Speaker 1>can they stay healthy? Can they stay out of their

0:46:36.960 --> 0:46:39.040
<v Speaker 1>own way? I think they can now. I think those

0:46:39.120 --> 0:46:41.720
<v Speaker 1>kind of demons have been exercised, all the missed field

0:46:41.760 --> 0:46:45.160
<v Speaker 1>goals and extra points and things, and and how just health.

0:46:45.560 --> 0:46:47.680
<v Speaker 1>Health is going to be a big, big component. Can

0:46:47.719 --> 0:46:50.240
<v Speaker 1>the run games stay healthy? Because you know what Herbert

0:46:50.400 --> 0:46:52.480
<v Speaker 1>is gonna do. So but I do think they need

0:46:52.600 --> 0:46:56.920
<v Speaker 1>that second level of offensive threat. And Cleo Mack if

0:46:57.000 --> 0:46:58.560
<v Speaker 1>nothing else, And I was getting a little up there,

0:46:58.600 --> 0:47:01.480
<v Speaker 1>but that guy is still scariest help on the defensive

0:47:01.480 --> 0:47:05.160
<v Speaker 1>side of the ball. So that division is insane, It's beautiful,

0:47:05.160 --> 0:47:07.600
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be great. The games are going to be great.

0:47:08.560 --> 0:47:11.400
<v Speaker 1>That is hands down the best division in the NFL.

0:47:11.719 --> 0:47:14.600
<v Speaker 1>Just storylines alone, Like you mentioned, but in the a

0:47:14.719 --> 0:47:18.960
<v Speaker 1>f C East, the favorite to win it all Buffalo Bills.

0:47:19.400 --> 0:47:22.840
<v Speaker 1>They're the highest ticket and handle at bet MGM. And

0:47:23.640 --> 0:47:27.320
<v Speaker 1>we're recording this on Tuesday. Unless by Thursday Josh Allen

0:47:27.560 --> 0:47:30.279
<v Speaker 1>breaks his leg. I would say that's gonna be the

0:47:30.360 --> 0:47:32.120
<v Speaker 1>way it is for the next couple of weeks until

0:47:32.160 --> 0:47:35.680
<v Speaker 1>the season starts, and probably up until February. So Bills

0:47:35.760 --> 0:47:38.600
<v Speaker 1>are you buying in um? The value is not great?

0:47:38.760 --> 0:47:42.080
<v Speaker 1>But do you like the Bills? Yeah? Well, I mean

0:47:42.120 --> 0:47:46.279
<v Speaker 1>what's not to like? Right, Really, what's not to like

0:47:46.480 --> 0:47:48.800
<v Speaker 1>is the odds, Like, you know, it's really hard to

0:47:49.760 --> 0:47:53.919
<v Speaker 1>lay to twenty minus two, Like that's a pretty that's

0:47:53.920 --> 0:47:56.520
<v Speaker 1>a heavy favorite. It's hard to really But in the

0:47:56.600 --> 0:48:00.920
<v Speaker 1>same breath, I can't really justify put money on I mean,

0:48:01.000 --> 0:48:03.600
<v Speaker 1>maybe the Dolphins at plus four fifty to win that division.

0:48:03.680 --> 0:48:05.320
<v Speaker 1>You kind of know what's not gonna happen. To me,

0:48:05.440 --> 0:48:07.800
<v Speaker 1>that's sort of dead money. But if I had to

0:48:07.920 --> 0:48:14.319
<v Speaker 1>choose another option, that Dolphins offense is ridiculous. Offensive line

0:48:14.400 --> 0:48:18.439
<v Speaker 1>is really gonna have to to show it. And let's

0:48:18.480 --> 0:48:21.200
<v Speaker 1>just say to us not getting sort of the same

0:48:21.880 --> 0:48:24.480
<v Speaker 1>relief that like saying Daniel Jones is getting where Daniel

0:48:24.560 --> 0:48:25.920
<v Speaker 1>Jones like, well, this has gotta be the year and

0:48:26.000 --> 0:48:27.680
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't the year. Well, now this has got to

0:48:27.760 --> 0:48:29.440
<v Speaker 1>be the year. And it's like with two of like,

0:48:29.560 --> 0:48:33.640
<v Speaker 1>this is the year. You have weapons, you have quarterback

0:48:33.719 --> 0:48:36.200
<v Speaker 1>coach that, you have gurus, like, this is the year.

0:48:36.760 --> 0:48:38.400
<v Speaker 1>So if you believe in two uh, and I do,

0:48:39.440 --> 0:48:41.680
<v Speaker 1>I think that plus four fifty with the Dolphins is

0:48:42.400 --> 0:48:44.239
<v Speaker 1>That's the only other thing I can wrap my head around.

0:48:44.239 --> 0:48:47.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm not trying to relax Patriot fans. I'm not trying

0:48:47.080 --> 0:48:50.000
<v Speaker 1>to count you out. You never count out Belichick. But no,

0:48:50.400 --> 0:48:52.880
<v Speaker 1>back to the Bills, No, there's not. They had Von Miller,

0:48:52.880 --> 0:48:55.399
<v Speaker 1>who's just come off a Super Bowl. The only knock

0:48:55.440 --> 0:48:57.799
<v Speaker 1>I could find on them is Josh Allen's golf game

0:48:57.920 --> 0:49:00.919
<v Speaker 1>and that foursome that they played with Brady and Roger.

0:49:01.200 --> 0:49:03.120
<v Speaker 1>That's the only knopf I could find on him is

0:49:03.160 --> 0:49:05.920
<v Speaker 1>that like Brady kind of talk trash to him and

0:49:06.200 --> 0:49:08.440
<v Speaker 1>he like laughed it off. That's the only negative I

0:49:08.440 --> 0:49:10.960
<v Speaker 1>could find for the Buffalo Bills this year. Okay, you

0:49:11.040 --> 0:49:15.399
<v Speaker 1>mentioned the Patriots year two under Mac Jones. I'm hearing

0:49:15.480 --> 0:49:18.200
<v Speaker 1>rumbles that Belichick might retire after this season. Do you

0:49:18.480 --> 0:49:23.520
<v Speaker 1>buy any of that. I don't like he's all sure

0:49:23.560 --> 0:49:25.320
<v Speaker 1>because you just look at it on on the surface.

0:49:25.440 --> 0:49:27.040
<v Speaker 1>But I mean, when have you When has there ever

0:49:27.160 --> 0:49:30.719
<v Speaker 1>been a rumbling about the Patriots that's been proven to

0:49:30.840 --> 0:49:34.279
<v Speaker 1>be true? Like everything is usually pretty air type, So

0:49:34.960 --> 0:49:36.800
<v Speaker 1>you can never count out Belichick. And that is a

0:49:36.880 --> 0:49:40.840
<v Speaker 1>playoff team. That's a wild card team barring any crazy

0:49:40.920 --> 0:49:43.799
<v Speaker 1>stuff happening with the Bills. Matt Jones is really good.

0:49:43.840 --> 0:49:47.120
<v Speaker 1>If he continue, if he evolves and has a even

0:49:47.200 --> 0:49:50.080
<v Speaker 1>better year two, it's they're gonna be a tough out.

0:49:50.120 --> 0:49:52.880
<v Speaker 1>They always are. But you know, you just look at

0:49:52.920 --> 0:49:55.879
<v Speaker 1>those two rosters. It's really Bills pats. It's and even

0:49:56.400 --> 0:50:00.000
<v Speaker 1>Dolphins pats. But you just can't count out that Patriot

0:50:00.080 --> 0:50:02.560
<v Speaker 1>it way and the belt. You just can never count

0:50:02.640 --> 0:50:04.400
<v Speaker 1>that out, as annoying as it could get for all

0:50:04.440 --> 0:50:07.400
<v Speaker 1>of us non Patriot fans. Really the Giants because we

0:50:07.440 --> 0:50:09.920
<v Speaker 1>sort of figured that out a long time ago. I

0:50:10.040 --> 0:50:13.040
<v Speaker 1>can't count them out. But uh yeah, the only the

0:50:13.120 --> 0:50:15.399
<v Speaker 1>only negative thing I can find about the Buffalo Bills

0:50:15.440 --> 0:50:20.440
<v Speaker 1>with Josh Allen's golf matchup, that's it. That's some good scouting. Jerry,

0:50:21.040 --> 0:50:23.040
<v Speaker 1>You really are you going to mention the Jets. You're

0:50:23.040 --> 0:50:27.319
<v Speaker 1>just gonna go right over there brush Jets. No, let's

0:50:27.480 --> 0:50:29.759
<v Speaker 1>let's do the Jets. Obviously, the big story of the

0:50:29.840 --> 0:50:32.000
<v Speaker 1>Jets to top ten picks, one on each side of

0:50:32.040 --> 0:50:35.560
<v Speaker 1>the ball ride receiver Garrett Wilson, cornerback Sauce Gardener, maybe

0:50:35.640 --> 0:50:38.160
<v Speaker 1>the best name in the draft, Sauce Gardener. I love that.

0:50:38.680 --> 0:50:41.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't know you got anything else. You like Zach Wilson.

0:50:41.280 --> 0:50:45.880
<v Speaker 1>Don't forget the last year preseason, Aaron Rodgers was singing

0:50:46.200 --> 0:50:50.160
<v Speaker 1>Zach Wilson's praises, So there's there's something with Zach Wilson.

0:50:50.320 --> 0:50:53.520
<v Speaker 1>I think that's big. Yeah, he couldn't have been more

0:50:53.560 --> 0:50:56.319
<v Speaker 1>excited about him. I know a lot of Jeff fans.

0:50:56.360 --> 0:50:57.759
<v Speaker 1>I have a lot of Jeff fans in my life

0:50:57.800 --> 0:51:00.880
<v Speaker 1>growing up in New York, and the trash talk has

0:51:00.880 --> 0:51:04.200
<v Speaker 1>always been amazing amongst us. Both have really not had

0:51:04.320 --> 0:51:06.400
<v Speaker 1>much the trash talk over the last I don't know

0:51:06.480 --> 0:51:09.839
<v Speaker 1>how many years, but the Jets do. Like, even when

0:51:09.840 --> 0:51:11.480
<v Speaker 1>the Jets have been bad in the last few years,

0:51:11.520 --> 0:51:14.880
<v Speaker 1>they still compete, and you know, I like Robinson, I

0:51:14.920 --> 0:51:17.360
<v Speaker 1>think they're gonna continue to compete. And they're just so

0:51:17.600 --> 0:51:20.720
<v Speaker 1>young so it is. But they're I think they definitely

0:51:20.760 --> 0:51:23.319
<v Speaker 1>have the most fun team they've had in a long while.

0:51:23.400 --> 0:51:26.000
<v Speaker 1>They're super young. But Jeff fans, you know, if he

0:51:26.040 --> 0:51:30.000
<v Speaker 1>asked Jeff Fans, they're still standing by when all of

0:51:30.040 --> 0:51:32.160
<v Speaker 1>them told me Sam Donald was gonna be first battlet

0:51:32.200 --> 0:51:34.359
<v Speaker 1>Hall of Famer and maybe he will be. Who knows.

0:51:34.400 --> 0:51:36.359
<v Speaker 1>He still has he's still playing, he's still out there.

0:51:36.960 --> 0:51:38.880
<v Speaker 1>But they'll still say but it still was the right

0:51:38.960 --> 0:51:41.399
<v Speaker 1>pick and it doesn't matter. I'm like, well we could

0:51:41.880 --> 0:51:44.520
<v Speaker 1>they just you know, they're they're super positive and maybe

0:51:44.560 --> 0:51:49.080
<v Speaker 1>they should be. No. I just love that look, great helmets.

0:51:49.200 --> 0:51:51.440
<v Speaker 1>You know they did the kind of new helmet thing,

0:51:52.160 --> 0:51:55.319
<v Speaker 1>great helmets that could be a banner. You could hang

0:51:55.400 --> 0:51:59.040
<v Speaker 1>that up, like really don't helmeto. You know, that could

0:51:59.200 --> 0:52:03.520
<v Speaker 1>fly in the in MetLife stadium. That's that's No. They'll

0:52:03.520 --> 0:52:05.759
<v Speaker 1>be really fun and they have a lot of lot

0:52:05.840 --> 0:52:08.920
<v Speaker 1>of young talents. So who the heck knows? Yeah, who

0:52:08.960 --> 0:52:10.960
<v Speaker 1>the heck knows. I like your optimism. What do you

0:52:11.080 --> 0:52:14.320
<v Speaker 1>think about the Jets? I don't think about the Jets

0:52:16.920 --> 0:52:20.200
<v Speaker 1>other than Aaron Rodgers saying that that that's really good

0:52:20.640 --> 0:52:24.120
<v Speaker 1>that you have not yea you don't really have an opinion. No,

0:52:24.440 --> 0:52:26.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean they're they're not even really on my radar

0:52:27.080 --> 0:52:29.959
<v Speaker 1>in in just the a f C. East. I feel

0:52:30.000 --> 0:52:32.960
<v Speaker 1>like in general, I'm I'm just focused on the Bills

0:52:33.200 --> 0:52:35.640
<v Speaker 1>and I don't know. You you even, I think are

0:52:35.680 --> 0:52:38.000
<v Speaker 1>giving the Dolphins a little too much credit. I think

0:52:38.520 --> 0:52:41.840
<v Speaker 1>what's going on with their offseason events and tampering and

0:52:41.960 --> 0:52:45.440
<v Speaker 1>whatnot and finds and whatnot. And now obviously a lot

0:52:45.520 --> 0:52:48.920
<v Speaker 1>of their punishment is going to affect them moving forward,

0:52:49.000 --> 0:52:51.319
<v Speaker 1>not this season. They lose a draft pick, first round

0:52:51.400 --> 0:52:53.640
<v Speaker 1>draft pick this time in draft, in a third round

0:52:53.680 --> 0:52:55.759
<v Speaker 1>pick the next year, and what a million and a

0:52:55.800 --> 0:52:58.960
<v Speaker 1>half dollar fine. That's nothing to their owner, who's worth

0:52:59.080 --> 0:53:03.040
<v Speaker 1>eight billion. I don't know. But is it just distraction

0:53:03.200 --> 0:53:06.040
<v Speaker 1>and people getting sick of them? I don't know. Does

0:53:06.080 --> 0:53:08.080
<v Speaker 1>that play out on the football field, I don't know.

0:53:08.400 --> 0:53:10.960
<v Speaker 1>But other than that, I don't know. It's just it's

0:53:11.000 --> 0:53:12.799
<v Speaker 1>the Bills and no one else in that division. I think.

0:53:13.640 --> 0:53:18.080
<v Speaker 1>Do you think, though it's Fairest, Dolphin's offense is loaded, right,

0:53:18.160 --> 0:53:25.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I we've got to acknowledge that they are loaded. Yeah, right,

0:53:26.440 --> 0:53:28.560
<v Speaker 1>they're loaded. The Chiefs gave him the option to pick

0:53:28.600 --> 0:53:30.440
<v Speaker 1>where he went and he I'm just I do want

0:53:30.440 --> 0:53:32.880
<v Speaker 1>to see what it how it looks. I agree, I agree.

0:53:32.960 --> 0:53:35.160
<v Speaker 1>Now Tyreek is a beast. We've had the pleasure of

0:53:35.680 --> 0:53:37.680
<v Speaker 1>having him in Kanas City the last handful of years

0:53:37.719 --> 0:53:39.920
<v Speaker 1>and it's fun to see cheetah. Okay, let's move on

0:53:40.360 --> 0:53:44.640
<v Speaker 1>to a f C South, which again not so many

0:53:44.719 --> 0:53:48.800
<v Speaker 1>sexy headliners. You mentioned earlier with Matt Ryan going to

0:53:48.960 --> 0:53:53.000
<v Speaker 1>INDI what do you think that does to a team

0:53:53.120 --> 0:53:56.880
<v Speaker 1>who lost the season so brutally with Carson Wentz but

0:53:57.040 --> 0:53:59.440
<v Speaker 1>to Jacksonville in the final week of the regular season

0:54:00.040 --> 0:54:02.720
<v Speaker 1>seen the playoffs, I mean that was that was horrible.

0:54:02.800 --> 0:54:07.640
<v Speaker 1>What does Matt Ryan do to spark something I have

0:54:07.760 --> 0:54:11.000
<v Speaker 1>always enjoyed? Matt Ryan. You know, we talked earlier about

0:54:11.000 --> 0:54:15.000
<v Speaker 1>fantasy football. He's arguably one of the greatest fantasy football quarterbacks,

0:54:15.120 --> 0:54:19.400
<v Speaker 1>especially in especially down to ten. You could count on

0:54:19.560 --> 0:54:22.800
<v Speaker 1>him putting up two touchdowns that don't really do a

0:54:22.880 --> 0:54:25.400
<v Speaker 1>whole lot, but we'll will help you win your fantasy matchup.

0:54:25.480 --> 0:54:29.719
<v Speaker 1>But that being said that, the cults are so balanced

0:54:29.960 --> 0:54:32.480
<v Speaker 1>and Matt Ryan we talked about him a lot, but

0:54:32.680 --> 0:54:35.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, Jonathan Taylor's who we got to talk about

0:54:35.280 --> 0:54:37.280
<v Speaker 1>on that offense, Like, I just hope that they really

0:54:38.080 --> 0:54:40.400
<v Speaker 1>just let him do, like let him ball out. That

0:54:40.560 --> 0:54:44.800
<v Speaker 1>dude is so talented and scary for a defense. And

0:54:45.280 --> 0:54:48.160
<v Speaker 1>the Colts they like, they're just I mean, gosh, if

0:54:48.239 --> 0:54:50.840
<v Speaker 1>they to lose this divisions. It almost feels like an

0:54:50.880 --> 0:54:54.279
<v Speaker 1>impossibility for him to lose this division. I do think

0:54:54.360 --> 0:54:58.239
<v Speaker 1>Matt Ryan gives them a enough experience and stability that

0:54:58.280 --> 0:55:00.160
<v Speaker 1>maybe they just have not had at the court back

0:55:00.200 --> 0:55:03.000
<v Speaker 1>positions since Andrew Andrew Luck. You know that Wentz game,

0:55:03.040 --> 0:55:04.960
<v Speaker 1>and I know there was circumstances at the end of

0:55:04.960 --> 0:55:08.279
<v Speaker 1>the year and how healthy was he who knows, But yeah,

0:55:08.400 --> 0:55:12.319
<v Speaker 1>that loss was one of the biggest. Yeah, I mean,

0:55:12.360 --> 0:55:14.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what I don't remember. I remember the

0:55:14.400 --> 0:55:16.359
<v Speaker 1>odds last year talking about that one of the most

0:55:16.760 --> 0:55:20.040
<v Speaker 1>memorable games of the season. I thought last year in

0:55:20.200 --> 0:55:23.839
<v Speaker 1>a game that no one, everyone already circled that game.

0:55:24.320 --> 0:55:26.640
<v Speaker 1>They already penciled and where the Cults might end up

0:55:26.760 --> 0:55:29.880
<v Speaker 1>in the playoffs. And that's what's really gonna make this

0:55:30.000 --> 0:55:32.640
<v Speaker 1>division interesting to me. I mean, it's hard to find

0:55:32.680 --> 0:55:35.280
<v Speaker 1>a lot of tons of things that are interesting this division.

0:55:35.400 --> 0:55:39.160
<v Speaker 1>But and I know, like the Texans, right, like, wow,

0:55:39.640 --> 0:55:42.440
<v Speaker 1>they might struggle this year, and we said the same

0:55:42.480 --> 0:55:49.040
<v Speaker 1>thing last year, but they're plus to win their division plus. Yes,

0:55:49.200 --> 0:55:53.000
<v Speaker 1>So you're stepping away from the division odds for a

0:55:53.040 --> 0:55:55.800
<v Speaker 1>second though. But Houston was eight and nine versus the

0:55:55.840 --> 0:56:00.920
<v Speaker 1>spread last year, eight and nine some of the but

0:56:01.160 --> 0:56:04.080
<v Speaker 1>some of those were you know they you know it's

0:56:04.120 --> 0:56:07.360
<v Speaker 1>not even research. I was on them last year. I

0:56:07.520 --> 0:56:10.160
<v Speaker 1>love looking for those under I just love on the dogs.

0:56:10.200 --> 0:56:13.040
<v Speaker 1>I always have always will you want to talk home

0:56:13.120 --> 0:56:16.200
<v Speaker 1>dogs on grass? I go off on that. So they

0:56:17.080 --> 0:56:19.279
<v Speaker 1>they paid out last year like they I'm gonna be

0:56:19.360 --> 0:56:22.800
<v Speaker 1>watching the Houston Texans. They're gonna win two or three games,

0:56:23.480 --> 0:56:25.279
<v Speaker 1>and you just want to really try to find one

0:56:25.360 --> 0:56:31.919
<v Speaker 1>of them. Okay, then that all season just find me too,

0:56:32.280 --> 0:56:35.520
<v Speaker 1>Texans wins. I don't know, it's gonna be really hard,

0:56:35.640 --> 0:56:38.640
<v Speaker 1>but they're they're they're on the schedule somewhere, and I

0:56:38.680 --> 0:56:40.040
<v Speaker 1>don't even know if they're all gonna be against the

0:56:40.080 --> 0:56:42.080
<v Speaker 1>Jaguars this year, because I do think the Jaguars are

0:56:42.719 --> 0:56:45.000
<v Speaker 1>improve and I think Trevor Lawrence could be a lot

0:56:45.080 --> 0:56:48.160
<v Speaker 1>off that last game against the Colts. Would you have

0:56:48.200 --> 0:56:51.799
<v Speaker 1>any Jaguar takes? How much. How much Jaguar research if

0:56:51.800 --> 0:56:54.480
<v Speaker 1>you've done so far, well, we just got to see them,

0:56:54.600 --> 0:56:56.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, in the Hall of Fame game. They have

0:56:56.040 --> 0:56:58.800
<v Speaker 1>the number one pick, Traymon Walker. He was a beast.

0:56:59.280 --> 0:57:01.760
<v Speaker 1>He proved he was worth a salt. And Doug Peterson,

0:57:01.880 --> 0:57:06.399
<v Speaker 1>I Doug Peterson's hard to you know, overlook. So yeah,

0:57:06.440 --> 0:57:08.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm not down on the Jaguars at all. And

0:57:09.600 --> 0:57:13.000
<v Speaker 1>that's the thing about a bad team like the Jets,

0:57:13.239 --> 0:57:15.640
<v Speaker 1>like the Jaguars. Teams that have been bad recently is

0:57:15.800 --> 0:57:18.840
<v Speaker 1>did they get better as the season went on? And

0:57:18.880 --> 0:57:21.600
<v Speaker 1>the Jaguars did, I mean to finish how they did

0:57:21.760 --> 0:57:25.200
<v Speaker 1>was exciting, So I think it gives you momentum going

0:57:25.240 --> 0:57:27.720
<v Speaker 1>into your off season. So I like, look, their plus

0:57:27.760 --> 0:57:31.240
<v Speaker 1>seven fifty to win the division. I don't know if

0:57:31.280 --> 0:57:33.440
<v Speaker 1>I would put too much on that, but maybe i'd

0:57:33.440 --> 0:57:35.400
<v Speaker 1>sprinkle a little bit of your entourage money on there.

0:57:35.440 --> 0:57:39.760
<v Speaker 1>But the Colts at minus one twenty, I feel pretty

0:57:39.800 --> 0:57:42.360
<v Speaker 1>good about that. And like you said to me, Jonathan

0:57:42.360 --> 0:57:45.640
<v Speaker 1>Taylor's the bigger story than Matt Ryan. And that might

0:57:45.760 --> 0:57:49.280
<v Speaker 1>sound like sacrilegious, but I just I'm more excited about

0:57:49.360 --> 0:57:52.440
<v Speaker 1>Jonathan Taylor. You know what, I don't think even bet

0:57:52.600 --> 0:57:55.200
<v Speaker 1>MGM could have made the odds for is that of

0:57:55.640 --> 0:57:59.960
<v Speaker 1>this entire division, the last we haven't even brought up

0:58:00.680 --> 0:58:03.680
<v Speaker 1>the Tennessee Titans. Yeah, And is that a bad sign?

0:58:05.320 --> 0:58:09.320
<v Speaker 1>Apherly vibes wise a bad sign that we haven't even

0:58:09.600 --> 0:58:13.440
<v Speaker 1>brought up the Tennessee Titans. Well, and we've seen especially

0:58:13.600 --> 0:58:15.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean, look, I'm a Chiefs fan and the Titans

0:58:15.400 --> 0:58:17.440
<v Speaker 1>always are a pain in our side. So I'm not

0:58:17.480 --> 0:58:21.720
<v Speaker 1>gonna undersell them. And how much load does Derrick Henry

0:58:21.880 --> 0:58:25.000
<v Speaker 1>carry for them? And I mean I'm looking there their

0:58:25.080 --> 0:58:27.240
<v Speaker 1>plus one sixty two to win the an FC South,

0:58:27.360 --> 0:58:30.080
<v Speaker 1>So that's that's not terrible odds. I don't know, maybe

0:58:30.200 --> 0:58:32.560
<v Speaker 1>maybe that's what you stick out your neck for a bit?

0:58:32.640 --> 0:58:35.560
<v Speaker 1>What do you think? I just you know, I do

0:58:35.720 --> 0:58:39.240
<v Speaker 1>think the A. J. Brown loss will hurt. I mean,

0:58:39.360 --> 0:58:43.120
<v Speaker 1>he's sucked that dude like he's He definitely was a

0:58:43.240 --> 0:58:47.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of a safety valve that is a luxury to

0:58:47.080 --> 0:58:49.240
<v Speaker 1>have because he could, you know, turn a ten yard

0:58:49.360 --> 0:58:53.080
<v Speaker 1>slant into a sixt r touchdown or so I'm curious

0:58:53.080 --> 0:58:55.640
<v Speaker 1>to see how the offense looks without him. And but

0:58:56.000 --> 0:59:01.400
<v Speaker 1>Derrick Henry can absolutely carry you to a victory over

0:59:01.600 --> 0:59:04.720
<v Speaker 1>anyone if he if and and they just know exactly

0:59:04.880 --> 0:59:06.920
<v Speaker 1>who they are and how to use them. And I

0:59:07.000 --> 0:59:08.920
<v Speaker 1>just wonder, like do they have enough because they've been

0:59:08.920 --> 0:59:10.880
<v Speaker 1>on a great run the last few years and we

0:59:11.000 --> 0:59:14.600
<v Speaker 1>all keep sleeping on them, and they all keep going

0:59:14.760 --> 0:59:18.320
<v Speaker 1>deeper in playoff runs and you know, knocking on the door.

0:59:18.520 --> 0:59:20.720
<v Speaker 1>So it is one of the hardest teams for me

0:59:21.240 --> 0:59:25.240
<v Speaker 1>to ever read because I don't feel like they should

0:59:26.000 --> 0:59:28.680
<v Speaker 1>have been successful there, but they always they are always

0:59:29.400 --> 0:59:32.920
<v Speaker 1>there in the end in that division. So I think

0:59:33.080 --> 0:59:35.560
<v Speaker 1>I really haven't we haven't. We didn't talk about them

0:59:35.600 --> 0:59:37.320
<v Speaker 1>at the top because it really is just hard for me.

0:59:37.520 --> 0:59:40.600
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to get a read or a feel for

0:59:40.720 --> 0:59:42.280
<v Speaker 1>how good they're good. They're going to be good. The

0:59:42.400 --> 0:59:44.440
<v Speaker 1>question is how good are they going to be? And

0:59:44.520 --> 0:59:47.480
<v Speaker 1>Tannehill's contract, I think a lot of people think is

0:59:47.720 --> 0:59:50.840
<v Speaker 1>too long and too much and has kind of tied

0:59:50.880 --> 0:59:53.160
<v Speaker 1>their hands a little bit. That people are hot and

0:59:53.240 --> 0:59:54.920
<v Speaker 1>cold on tanne Hill. But boy are they're gonna by

0:59:54.920 --> 0:59:58.160
<v Speaker 1>the way, Texans beat them. Texans beat the Titans. Texas

0:59:58.320 --> 1:00:02.160
<v Speaker 1>the Titans last year. Let's offer you the Titans last year.

1:00:02.480 --> 1:00:05.280
<v Speaker 1>My homework assignment for you for next week is going

1:00:05.360 --> 1:00:07.320
<v Speaker 1>to be picked the two games on the schedule that

1:00:07.400 --> 1:00:12.280
<v Speaker 1>the Texans win. I'm gonna hold you to that one. Alright, alright,

1:00:12.600 --> 1:00:15.440
<v Speaker 1>it's early, but very early for I will do it

1:00:15.560 --> 1:00:18.800
<v Speaker 1>because you know it's episode one. I gotta prove myself

1:00:18.880 --> 1:00:21.200
<v Speaker 1>to you and to the listeners. I'm down. I just

1:00:21.440 --> 1:00:24.240
<v Speaker 1>give me like subject to change. We'll I'll just put

1:00:24.280 --> 1:00:26.120
<v Speaker 1>the little asterisk next to it. It is subject to

1:00:26.240 --> 1:00:29.000
<v Speaker 1>change during the season based on information. But I'll give

1:00:29.040 --> 1:00:34.640
<v Speaker 1>you some preseason Texans upset alerts. I'm not scared. Okay, okay,

1:00:34.880 --> 1:00:36.800
<v Speaker 1>I love it. I love it. Hey. By the way,

1:00:36.840 --> 1:00:39.080
<v Speaker 1>one thing that is kind of fun again not in

1:00:39.160 --> 1:00:41.960
<v Speaker 1>the a f C, but this week the Detroit Lions

1:00:42.240 --> 1:00:44.640
<v Speaker 1>are on Hard Knocks and that comes out this week.

1:00:45.080 --> 1:00:47.160
<v Speaker 1>So my question you one, do you watch Hard Knocks?

1:00:47.240 --> 1:00:51.680
<v Speaker 1>Do you like it? And to do you care about

1:00:51.720 --> 1:00:54.040
<v Speaker 1>the Detroit Lions or there another team you would have

1:00:54.080 --> 1:00:59.280
<v Speaker 1>put in there. So I've always been a Hard Knocks fan, always,

1:00:59.640 --> 1:01:01.760
<v Speaker 1>and from me that's kind of always where I start

1:01:02.480 --> 1:01:06.600
<v Speaker 1>locking into football season. Right back in the day, used

1:01:06.600 --> 1:01:09.520
<v Speaker 1>to be like get your fantasy football magazines. That's that

1:01:09.680 --> 1:01:11.800
<v Speaker 1>was always at the time Okay, it's time to start

1:01:12.080 --> 1:01:14.280
<v Speaker 1>hard knocks. Always for me, he's like, Okay, I'm gonna

1:01:14.280 --> 1:01:18.640
<v Speaker 1>start really locking in and get back to consuming information.

1:01:19.360 --> 1:01:20.880
<v Speaker 1>I've been in a little rough the last two years,

1:01:20.880 --> 1:01:23.920
<v Speaker 1>won't I haven't really kept up with him as much

1:01:24.000 --> 1:01:26.960
<v Speaker 1>as I as I kept as much as I used to.

1:01:27.120 --> 1:01:30.640
<v Speaker 1>But and no disrespect to the lines, they gave us

1:01:30.680 --> 1:01:33.600
<v Speaker 1>some amazing entertainment and wins. At the end of the year.

1:01:33.960 --> 1:01:36.440
<v Speaker 1>They had a really great draft. I have one of

1:01:36.520 --> 1:01:39.040
<v Speaker 1>my best friends as a Lions fan, and you know,

1:01:39.200 --> 1:01:41.800
<v Speaker 1>he's a very realistic Lions fan, so lots of love

1:01:41.840 --> 1:01:45.600
<v Speaker 1>for the lines. We went through too Bengals hard knocks

1:01:45.640 --> 1:01:47.640
<v Speaker 1>seasons and you know, we had Ocho Sinko. It was

1:01:47.640 --> 1:01:50.840
<v Speaker 1>a lot of entertainment, but like they weren't really a

1:01:51.120 --> 1:01:55.160
<v Speaker 1>threat to do any damage. Wouldn't this have been an

1:01:55.360 --> 1:01:58.480
<v Speaker 1>ideal time to get the Bengals And I'm sure they tried,

1:01:59.440 --> 1:02:01.240
<v Speaker 1>and I'm sure or maybe like, no, we're locked in

1:02:01.320 --> 1:02:03.160
<v Speaker 1>on winning a Super Bowl. We're not doing hard knocks.

1:02:03.240 --> 1:02:06.080
<v Speaker 1>No cameras here, but man, we we watched the Bengals

1:02:06.080 --> 1:02:08.680
<v Speaker 1>twice already on hard knocks and that team didn't really

1:02:08.720 --> 1:02:10.400
<v Speaker 1>go so far. I would love to have seen the

1:02:10.440 --> 1:02:13.720
<v Speaker 1>Bengals this year. Loved You know who I would want

1:02:13.760 --> 1:02:16.040
<v Speaker 1>to see this year is the Panthers. And I don't

1:02:16.040 --> 1:02:18.800
<v Speaker 1>know when they pick the team for Hard Knocks, but

1:02:19.080 --> 1:02:22.360
<v Speaker 1>it was probably well before you know, Baker Mayfield was

1:02:22.400 --> 1:02:25.720
<v Speaker 1>going to Carolina, but with Christian McCaffrey coming back healthy

1:02:26.240 --> 1:02:28.480
<v Speaker 1>and he's dating Olivia Colpo, I would have loved to

1:02:28.520 --> 1:02:31.080
<v Speaker 1>see like a cameo of Olivia Culpo. She's my girl crush.

1:02:31.560 --> 1:02:36.080
<v Speaker 1>And then also just the Sam Donald Baker Mayfield competition,

1:02:36.440 --> 1:02:39.280
<v Speaker 1>as well as getting Malik Willis as QB three from

1:02:39.320 --> 1:02:42.439
<v Speaker 1>All Miss in the draft. And now what I'm hearing

1:02:42.720 --> 1:02:45.520
<v Speaker 1>is that Sam Donald is being chopped around. They're not

1:02:45.560 --> 1:02:48.160
<v Speaker 1>going to cut you know, at what five year old

1:02:48.200 --> 1:02:49.800
<v Speaker 1>guy who was the number three pick a couple of

1:02:49.880 --> 1:02:51.960
<v Speaker 1>years ago, but I do think they would trade him

1:02:51.960 --> 1:02:54.200
<v Speaker 1>for a couple of draft picks. Make Baker the starter,

1:02:54.400 --> 1:02:58.360
<v Speaker 1>have Malik Willis the rookie b the number two, which

1:02:58.360 --> 1:03:00.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he's necessarily ready for at but I

1:03:00.960 --> 1:03:03.480
<v Speaker 1>mean the Panthers are a story like that. There's a

1:03:03.520 --> 1:03:06.000
<v Speaker 1>lot going on there, so I would love to have

1:03:06.200 --> 1:03:08.160
<v Speaker 1>that as the hard knocks. As a hard knocks, but

1:03:08.200 --> 1:03:10.080
<v Speaker 1>that wouldn't be fair to do to Baker. He already

1:03:10.200 --> 1:03:12.120
<v Speaker 1>had to do that with the Browns. Be on hard Nucks.

1:03:12.120 --> 1:03:14.160
<v Speaker 1>Remember sitting in that little trailer and did you watch

1:03:14.240 --> 1:03:19.120
<v Speaker 1>that season? That's right? Yeah, I do, right, that's where

1:03:19.160 --> 1:03:21.360
<v Speaker 1>I get yes, And those are one of the last

1:03:21.400 --> 1:03:23.160
<v Speaker 1>seasons for me and I didn't really keep up with

1:03:23.240 --> 1:03:28.080
<v Speaker 1>that Chargers season. Those some of the lost seasons for

1:03:28.160 --> 1:03:30.360
<v Speaker 1>me in there. But you know what, you you laid

1:03:30.400 --> 1:03:32.680
<v Speaker 1>out a really good case. I think you just swung

1:03:32.800 --> 1:03:36.040
<v Speaker 1>me Bengals. Sure, we get it. We saw a lot

1:03:36.080 --> 1:03:38.680
<v Speaker 1>of Burrow being cool, all right, you swung Panthers would

1:03:38.720 --> 1:03:42.120
<v Speaker 1>have been a better maybe soap opera play. Yeah, yeah,

1:03:42.200 --> 1:03:44.480

<v Speaker 1>Oh that was really fun. What do you think, Jerry?

1:03:53.760 --> 1:03:56.760
<v Speaker 1>Your first episode? I think I probably talked too much.

1:03:56.840 --> 1:03:58.640
<v Speaker 1>So I gotta work on that. That's what my wife

1:03:58.680 --> 1:04:00.520
<v Speaker 1>tells us. I'm going to work on for next week.

1:04:00.520 --> 1:04:02.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna do my homework on the Texans. I would

1:04:02.880 --> 1:04:04.640
<v Speaker 1>love to do this in person one of these days.

1:04:04.680 --> 1:04:07.400
<v Speaker 1>I hope we get the opportunity to do that, maybe

1:04:07.440 --> 1:04:10.040
<v Speaker 1>a live show something like that. But this, this was great.

1:04:10.480 --> 1:04:13.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm ready for the season to start, and I'm you know,

1:04:13.280 --> 1:04:15.600
<v Speaker 1>I I'm ready to not talk to my friends on

1:04:15.680 --> 1:04:17.800
<v Speaker 1>the phone about all this stuff over and all and

1:04:17.920 --> 1:04:21.160
<v Speaker 1>just actually talk to you in a professional environment and

<v Speaker 1>goes to work, right, and like this is our job

1:04:33.080 --> 1:04:36.400
<v Speaker 1>and we are joking earlier as now parents of young

1:04:36.520 --> 1:04:39.440
<v Speaker 1>ones especially, is we've got to start telling our spouses

1:04:39.600 --> 1:04:42.240
<v Speaker 1>that this takes a lot longer than it does, just

1:04:42.360 --> 1:04:44.400
<v Speaker 1>so we can kind of be left alone for a

1:04:44.440 --> 1:04:49.920
<v Speaker 1>minute too, like look at sports memes online and to

1:04:50.760 --> 1:04:55.240
<v Speaker 1>be like check in on degenerate gambling sites to for

1:04:55.520 --> 1:04:57.080
<v Speaker 1>like I just want to scroll on my phone and

1:04:57.200 --> 1:04:59.240
<v Speaker 1>disturb for a minute. So yeah, there's a lot more

1:04:59.320 --> 1:05:01.280
<v Speaker 1>we can do. But I mean next week, Hey, we

<v Speaker 1>stuff just yet, but hopefully they'll be watching with us

1:05:17.600 --> 1:05:20.000

1:05:22.240 --> 1:05:25.600
