Well 3 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,480 Speaker 1: not too fired up, because I just did a podcast 4 00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: and my microphone wasn't plugged in, so I was talking 5 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 1: to nobody and I realized I gotta redo this. So 6 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:33,879 Speaker 1: that sucked. But what I'm gonna do today is I'm 7 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: gonna record a little bit of a shorter podcast. I'll 8 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 1: save a mail bag probably for tomorrow. I'll record one 9 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:44,240 Speaker 1: before I take off back to Arizona. Uh So I today, 10 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,280 Speaker 1: no mail bag, but firing those at John Middlecoff in 11 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 1: the mail bag and I'll do a big one tomorrow. 12 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 1: Other than that, not today. We talk a little arch Manning. 13 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 1: He had a great quote today that his grandpa tells 14 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 1: him every time before he hangs up up Jerry. I 15 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 1: watched the Cowboys documentary. Highly recommend that it is fantastic. 16 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 1: A couple of takeaways from there. Anthony Richardson's agent is 17 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: not happy, Joe Burrow, some thoughts on the Bengals. So 18 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: we'll talk a little football.

Going to an 35 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: NFL game is just a fun way to spend a Sunday, 36 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: have a few beers, go with a buddy, roof of 37 00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 1: your team, hopefully see a win, see some exciting stuff. 38 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: But the college atmosphere, the pageantry of it, even if 39 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 1: you like I didn't go to any of these big schools, 40 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: but have been to the Rose Bowl.

Let's start with arch Manning. I'm getting away 55 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: next week. I'm going to Hawaii, and I actually never 56 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 1: took my wife on a honeymoon, and so we're doing 57 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 1: a honeymoon baby moon slash, just kind of relaxing for 58 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: four or five days before football season starts and our 59 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 1: lives get crazy and then we have a baby. So 60 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 1: taking a deep breath, but the only only flight I 61 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 1: could get home. Was there's red Eyes leaving Maui, and 62 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: I was like, okay, I'll get one. We'll go for 63 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,519 Speaker 1: the week and i'll come back Friday, and we'll touch 64 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:15,079 Speaker 1: down Saturday morning at about six thirty am. Then I realized, well, Texas, 65 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: Ohio State is at nine o'clock. I can't be sleepy, disoriented, 66 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: potentially all out of whack like I want to be 67 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: well rested. So I changed our trip to leave a 68 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,639 Speaker 1: day earlier and come back a day earlier. Don't tell 69 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: my wife, because I need to take in and experience Texas, Oklahoma, 70 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 1: but more specifically Arch Banning. Let's face it, I don't 71 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 1: ever remember a more hyped guy who has never played 72 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: in my life watching football. If I just think about 73 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: the last fifteen to twenty years of college stars in football, 74 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: it was all based on their play right when I 75 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: was in college. Matt Lioner, Reggie Bush, Vince Young like 76 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: that group, that era of players. It was over a 77 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: period of time of them making a ton of plays 78 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: that their hype grew and then they won Heisman trophies. 79 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: If you think about the last six seven years, Joe 80 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: Burrow and Cam Newton were two guys that I wouldn't 81 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: say were on everyone's radar going into the season. By 82 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,599 Speaker 1: the middle of the year, they were superstars. Baker Mayfield 83 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:22,039 Speaker 1: had three years of building up his collegiate production, winning games, 84 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: becoming a star. Kayleb Williams won the Heisman Trophy his 85 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,239 Speaker 1: first year at Oklahoma, so by his second year, which 86 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: was his junior year in college because he transferred tom Oklahoma, 87 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: the hype was Trevor Lawrence won a national championship as 88 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 1: a rookie, Andrew Luck with Jim Harbaugh resurrected Stanford of football. 89 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: Arch Mannings like played two games against nobody's but because 90 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: of his name, because of the hype. I just don't 91 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: think we've ever seen anything quite like this. I mean seriously, 92 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: and I don't you know. There was hype behind Tua, 93 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: but he became a star once he got thrust into 94 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: the game and made plays. Arch did not create this 95 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: hype his family, As Colin says, the Mannings are football royalty. 96 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: And it's true. We're just not gonna see a family. 97 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: I mean, his dad was a superstar. The two sons 98 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: want to combine four Super Bowls. Peyton's one of the 99 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 1: greatest quarterbacks ever Eli beat Belichick and Brady Choice and 100 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,719 Speaker 1: Arch isn't even their son. But Archie Manning, who is 101 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 1: a legend for a certain era, obviously had a rough 102 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 1: NFL career because he played on terrible teams, was dominant 103 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 1: college player, gives his grandson advice every time they talk. 104 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 1: And Arch Manning, who was giving a press conference, and 105 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: he hit on a couple of things like Field Yates, 106 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 1: who just has great hair. Field, I am jealous of 107 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 1: your flow. Some people, like you know, whenever I get 108 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,719 Speaker 1: people talking shit, they're like, oh, grow some hair, you 109 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: bald bastard. It's like, yeah, this isn't by choice. I 110 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 1: didn't choose this life. Sometimes when you're on TV two 111 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: and you're just around a bunch of people with great hair, 112 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 1: you're like, I'm a little jealous. And Field I'm jealous 113 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: of he's got good flow. But he had a not 114 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,279 Speaker 1: too early mock drafting and arch Manning going number one 115 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 1: and a couple of weeks ago as Grandpa's like, he's 116 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: gonna be in Texas for a couple of years, and 117 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: then arch was asked, He's like, I don't know where 118 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: Graham's got that one. I'm taking this day by day 119 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: but every time that his grandpa hangs up with him, 120 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: right before he signs off, he says, get down or 121 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 1: get out of bounds. And it's funny. And when Arch 122 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: told the media that comment, every I would imagine most 123 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: people in the press conference room laughed. But it's actually 124 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 1: pretty true and there is a lot of wisdom behind that, 125 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: because I think anytime that you have a lot of 126 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 1: hype and you haven't done much, people are gonna come 127 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 1: after you. And everyone in the SEC is going to 128 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: want to make a name for themselves by lighting this 129 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 1: kid up when they get their chance. And unlike these 130 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: other sports, in practice, in football, the one thing you 131 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 1: are one hundred percent never allowed to do is to 132 00:06:55,920 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: hit the quarterback. Scout team one's on one's, eleven on eleven, 133 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: you name it. You can't touch that player. Even on 134 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 1: your own team, the third stringer, you're not allowed to 135 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: bring the guy to the ground. That's why they typically 136 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: wear different color jerseys. So when you get to the games, 137 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: defenders in general, regardless who they're playing with, gets so 138 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: excited because finally tackle. But more specifically, if you're a 139 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: pass rusher or if you have a running quarterback and 140 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: you're a linebacker, you can hit the quarterback and you 141 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: want to hit them really, really hard. I would say 142 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: no one has a bigger bullseye on them than arch Manning. 143 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: Heading into the season, think about Ohio State feels like 144 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: they're replacing their entire defense. And for a lot of colleges, 145 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: even with the transfer portal, that's pretty difficult, not at 146 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: a program like this because most of the backups at 147 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: the top programs and the guys they get in the 148 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 1: transfer portal won't just be good players. I mean they're 149 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: gonna be potential top one hundred draft picks. I mean 150 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: they're going to be countless guys on Ohio States defense 151 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: that the casual fan that's not on Rivals dot Com 152 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 1: twenty four to seven has never heard of, that will 153 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: be first round picks, that potentially will be like Big 154 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: ten defensive Player of the Year, that will be superstars, 155 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: and they're gonna be badasses. And Game one. They have 156 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: been hearing about arch Manning for nine months ever since 157 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: their team won the Natty, and this is their chance 158 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: to make a name for themselves. And obviously, the SEC 159 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: and Ohio State's basically an SEC team in the North 160 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: has the fastest, most violent and best defensive players google 161 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: the draft for the last decade. Any SEC hater, the 162 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 1: one thing they can never argue is this the conference 163 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: that where the most guys get drafted, specifically on defense, 164 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: and most of the NFL defensive linemen come from this conference. 165 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 1: Most of the NFL linebackers come from this conference. They 166 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 1: run the fastest, they hit the hardest, and they're just 167 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: the most violent and arch manning. To me, it's not 168 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:50,079 Speaker 1: his fault, but when the defensive coordinators will get in 169 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 1: front of their room, he is going to have a 170 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 1: circle around him. We're gonna want to hit this guy. 171 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: And he's a running quarterback. That's part of his game, right. 172 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 1: So I do think that wisdom his grandpa got it 173 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 1: gave him get down and get out of bounds is 174 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: very very true. Like, you gotta be very careful about 175 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: being a hero because there are gonna be a lot 176 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,439 Speaker 1: of guys on the other side of the ball against 177 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 1: the good teams that you play. And obviously in the SEC, 178 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: even if a team is not necessarily good record wise, 179 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,559 Speaker 1: they're gonna have guys on defense. They're gonna play in 180 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: the NFL and they're gonna run really fast and hit 181 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: really hard, and he's got to be very cognizant of 182 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: Like the one thing Eli and Payton got to figure 183 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 1: out quick is I'm not a great athlete. I'm not running, 184 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: so I gotta take care of my body. I gotta 185 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 1: get down in the pocket. If nothing's there, I gotta 186 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 1: throw the ball away. Well sometimes running quarterbacks and they're 187 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: dealing this with Kayleb Williams and any guy. We saw 188 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: Jayden Daniels the other night in a preseason game, started 189 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: running up the middle, was like pouncing off guys. Now 190 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,079 Speaker 1: he scored touchdown, but even I saw a quote Dan 191 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:46,959 Speaker 1: Quinn said after the game, like, yeah, you gotta go. 192 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: We gotta be careful. He's a franchise. It's like when 193 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: Brian Kelly was like, I've always kind of defended Brian Kelly, 194 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 1: always thought he was pretty good, But I'm starting to 195 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: go the other way. When he a quote in that 196 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 1: Netflix doc. I watched like five of the episodes. I 197 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: mean it's okay on the SEC. I mean they're not 198 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: showing Alabama or Georgia. It's like I'd kind of like 199 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 1: to see those teams or but he's like, you know, 200 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:18,959 Speaker 1: my mortgage depends on eighteen, nineteen, and twenty year olds. No, 201 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 1: someone who works paycheck to paycheck or year to year. Yeah, 202 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: that's where their mortgage depends. You've already made one hundred 203 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: million dollars coaching football, and you sign a guaranteed ninety 204 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 1: million dollar contract. So whether that eighteen year old is 205 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: a number one overall pick or sucks, you're not worried 206 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: about paying the mortgage, and you haven't been in decades. 207 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 1: So that's what a cheesy comment. The guy's kind of 208 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: a cheese ball. I'm out on Brian Kelly, but I'm 209 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 1: in on this text experience. I can't wait for this game. 210 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 1: I haven't been more excited to watch college football game, 211 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: you know, week one with a lot of unknowns. Maybe ever, 212 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,559 Speaker 1: like we get excited for big games. I remember nineteen 213 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,080 Speaker 1: when Tua and Joe Burrow went up against each other 214 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: some Michigan Ohio State games. Obviously the playoff games or 215 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: the bowl games, or just big regular season games. Last 216 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: year Oregon Ohio State. That was sick. But this is 217 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: a game where it's like, is arn't any good? Is 218 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: Ohio State any good? No one has any clue, and 219 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: no one really cares. There are gonna be so many 220 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,680 Speaker 1: eyeballs on this game, you know, being in the Fox 221 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: studio and a lot. Obviously the NFL is king. They 222 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 1: take the NFL. It's a really big deal, rightfully, so 223 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 1: it's how they pay the bills. But college football is 224 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 1: a really big deal with them in this game, Like 225 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: you feel the importance. You know, obviously, big new kickoffs 226 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: is going to be there, Joe Klatt's going to be there. 227 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: I think this number. You know, some of these preseason 228 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 1: games have been like shattering records, right like the Sunday 229 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 1: Night game, the Monday night game. These these games are 230 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 1: doing like six seven million people watching now. Granted like 231 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 1: the first quarter, if you have the starters in like 232 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: six million people watching a preseason game, this, I would 233 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: imagine this is the most watched college football game in 234 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: a long, long time. And it really shows you the 235 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: power of the Mannings. And I hope he's good because 236 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 1: if he's good, more stuff for us to talk about. 237 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: And as a consumer, just I like watching good players, 238 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 1: the rivalries, the marching bands, the upsets.

The first episode was a 271 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: lot about Jerry Jones. How you about the Cowboys? But 272 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 1: the Cowboys document just a big picture. I get nostalgic 273 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: about ninety stuff. I've said this before. I used to 274 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 1: like didn't understand why, Like my dad always listened to 275 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 1: the music that he listened to when he was a 276 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: teenager or in college when I was growing up. I'm like, 277 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: this music sucks so old. Then I realized the only 278 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: music I listened to is like stuff from my childhood. 279 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: The movies I like are movies from the nineties. Like 280 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 1: it's just we all become our parents. And I heard 281 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: a quote the other day and it really resonated with 282 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: me because as I'm forty years old having my first kid, 283 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 1: you start thinking like, hey, in ten twenty years, Like 284 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: in twenty years, I'll be sixty, my kid will be twenty. 285 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 1: You start, you know, not necessarily looking at your mortality 286 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 1: or thinking about mortality, but you just you get far 287 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: far away from your youth and you're like, God, it's like, 288 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 1: I'm not old, but I'm definitely not young anymore. That 289 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 1: the quote was the youth youth is lost on the young. 290 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: It's like, it's kind of true because when you're young, 291 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: and I'd even argue, like when you're in your prime 292 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: of your ambition your aggression, and I'd say I'm a 293 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 1: pretty aggressive human being. Most people I associate with, my friends, 294 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: you know that work in different industries, tend to be 295 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: pretty aggressive. And listen, it's it's easy when you don't 296 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: have much or you want a lot to make bold 297 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 1: moves to take like it's easy to bet it all. 298 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 1: You know, whether you're a gambler, whether you're four to 299 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 1: one k and be more aggressive at thirty eight than 300 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: it is at sixty eight, Right, and watching Jerry Jones. 301 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: I grew up my dad was a farmer, and I 302 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 1: knew a lot of people who, you know, farming could 303 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: be very fickle, like you could have one you could 304 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: have an incredible four or five year stretch and then 305 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: you could have an awful to year stretch and lose 306 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 1: your ass. But he knew a lot of just because 307 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:51,359 Speaker 1: there are a lot of successful farmers in northern California 308 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: and the Valley from basically Sacramento down to Bakersfield. There's 309 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: basically three parts of California. There's the Bay Area, there's 310 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 1: Southern California, there's the Valley and forever Southern California, you know, 311 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 1: was known as Hollywood and the movie world, the entertainment 312 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 1: world obviously Northern California, Silicon Valley, and then the Valley, 313 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: then the you know, the the valley from Sacramento to 314 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: Bakersfield was kind of the farming area. And a lot 315 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 1: of these farmers, the successful ones. You know, some of 316 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: these people didn't have college degrees, but what they did 317 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: have and I see some of this when I see 318 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: the young version of Jerry is they just had big balls, 319 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: they had stones, and I think a lot of successful 320 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 1: people still to this day, but it's it's a little 321 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 1: different now then back then, where you could just do 322 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: it all on guile, you could if you had a 323 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 1: personality and you had some stones and you were willing 324 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: to do things that most people weren't like, you could 325 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 1: have some big hits in whatever world or industry you 326 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 1: worked in. And obviously Jerry, i mean claimed who knows, 327 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 1: you know, some of these stories as you age become 328 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: stuff a legend. But he had turned an eight hundred 329 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: thousand dollars oil well into a hundred million dollars and 330 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 1: because of that move, he was able to buy the 331 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: Cowboys when the owner, you know, was in the banking 332 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 1: industry and we must have hit a big recession. George W. 333 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 1: Bush was in this and he was talking about a 334 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:16,399 Speaker 1: big recession hit and the owner had to sell and 335 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 1: Jerry was able to buy the Cowboys because then he 336 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: had to borrow another fifty million dollars. But you're just 337 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 1: watching Jerry, like this guy had just huge balls and 338 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,479 Speaker 1: he was just willing to do things that most people 339 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 1: were not willing to do. And it started with immediately 340 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:32,719 Speaker 1: gets rid of a legendary coach and brings in his 341 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 1: guy now, Jimmy Johnson was a star coach at Miami, 342 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: but Jerry didn't give a shit blowback. Everyone hated him. 343 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 1: Everyone thought he was just, you know, some redneck from Arkansas, 344 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,239 Speaker 1: and Jerry was just came in guns blazing. And you 345 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 1: watch the Jerry now because I think about this sometimes, 346 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: like I want my son to see a guy who 347 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 1: is not afraid. And I don't mean like i'd step 348 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: in the ring with Chuck Lydel. I just mean the 349 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 1: way we approach life. We got some balls, We're willing 350 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: to take some swings, and we're not always going to 351 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 1: get it right, but we're not afraid to fail. And 352 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: that was watching this why the Cowboys hit it big 353 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,919 Speaker 1: as Jerry didn't care and Jerry believed in something. He 354 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 1: got the coaching higher right, and the Cowboys within a 355 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 1: couple of years were winning Super Bowls and everyone that 356 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 1: was a hater became a lover. And I think you 357 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 1: see the guy now, You're like, what happened? Is it 358 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 1: just he's too rich? Is he have way more to lose? Now? 359 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,360 Speaker 1: Just when you get older, even though his egos as 360 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 1: big as ever, he's just on the Jerry Jones in 361 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 1: the nineties wouldn't have hired Brian Schottenheimer in a million years. 362 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 1: Say what you want about Barry Switzer. Barry Switcher was 363 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: winning huge games at Oklahoma, like had a huge resume 364 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: as a head coach, and I just think that, Like, 365 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 1: if I'm a Cowboy fan and I'm watching that, you 366 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 1: realize what a far cry this franchise. Obviously it's much 367 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,200 Speaker 1: more glamorous now there's much more money, but who cares. 368 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 1: None of that actually matters. So what Jerry, Stephen and 369 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: Charlotte have better offices, or that Dak Prescott's meeting room 370 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 1: is pretty cool. It's like, yeah, we just don't win 371 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: any meaningful games anymore. And one of my favorite quotes 372 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 1: of all time is from the movie Blow with Johnny Depp, 373 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,959 Speaker 1: where he plays a big cocaine dealer. Fantastic movie, by 374 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 1: the way, and at the end of the movie when 375 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 1: he's in jail after basically Pablo and all these guys 376 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,399 Speaker 1: have gone down and we've tried to take out the 377 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: cocaine trade in America. And Johnny Depp's character, for anyone 378 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:37,359 Speaker 1: that's seen it, obviously was the main reason cocaine was 379 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 1: coming into America was he said that I've always said 380 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 1: that my ambition outweighed my talent, and that always resonated 381 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 1: with pop because, like I said, my dad, like most 382 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,199 Speaker 1: of the farmers I knew or grew up knowing that 383 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 1: were friends of my dad or my dad's kind of ecosystem. 384 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,160 Speaker 1: I always thought that these guys were just they were 385 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 1: just ambitious rest of businessmen. But they weren't like the 386 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 1: smartest guy in the room. You know. They couldn't walk 387 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 1: into like Stamford and just blow people away intellectually, but 388 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,439 Speaker 1: they would put their nuts on the table when it 389 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: came to business. And you watch Jerry and you're like, God, 390 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 1: this guy had balls, And you watch them now, it's 391 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: like you're hiring Brian fucking Schottenheimer. Like that's what you're doing. 392 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:25,160 Speaker 1: And listen. I know the Dallas Cowboy fans or did people. 393 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:28,120 Speaker 1: A lot of people hate Dallas because how often people 394 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: talk about him. But the reason people talk about him 395 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: a lot is because they have a lot of the 396 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 1: huge fan base. No different talking about the Lakers or 397 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 1: the Yankees a lot. It's just a numbers game. But 398 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:39,919 Speaker 1: it's pretty embarrassing when you think about it. It's like, 399 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 1: I know, Mike McCarthy took a lot of crap. I mean, 400 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 1: the guy was a winning coach for the Green Bay 401 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: Packers and won a Super Bowl to go to Brian Schottenheimer, 402 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: who no one was gonna ever make their head coach. 403 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: I mean, will Brian Schottenheimer have become an offensive coordinator anywhere? 404 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 1: And obviously everything that's going on with Micah, like how's 405 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,680 Speaker 1: he gonna overcome this? But like what a far cry. 406 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 1: You watch that documentary with Jimmy Johnson, which what a 407 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: throwback time. I mean just kind of a different world 408 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: that there's something pure when you see some of these clips, 409 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 1: like this wasn't the sixties with Bear Bryant. This was 410 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:16,439 Speaker 1: the nineties, like nineteen ninety two, which doesn't sound that 411 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 1: long ago, but when you do the math that's well 412 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:21,680 Speaker 1: over thirty years ago. It looks like they're just practicing 413 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 1: on a field that I would have gone to recess, 414 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 1: you know, and played at Pioneer Elementary. I mean the 415 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 1: field doesn't look great. It's like, I don't even know 416 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,679 Speaker 1: if this is a facility. It's like Troy Aikman throwing 417 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 1: passes to Michael Irvin on a field that looks like 418 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: at any moment someone could roll their ankle in like 419 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 1: you know, some little indentation that an animal had dug, 420 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 1: and it's just where. Now these fields are perfectly manicured. 421 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,679 Speaker 1: They're either turf or their mode every day, like it's 422 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: you know, Yankee Stadium, Like I've been to the Niners 423 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 1: practices the Eagles. I mean, they're just pristine. And you 424 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:01,360 Speaker 1: look back at these clips of like Jimmy Johnson roam 425 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,439 Speaker 1: in the sideline. Even when I grew up watching some 426 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,160 Speaker 1: of the clips of Bill Wallash, She's like, where are 427 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: these teams practicing? I laugh because in this doc a 428 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 1: huge element, it's stuff of legends to this day is 429 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: like when Jimmy Johnson traded herschel Walker, And nowadays, when 430 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: your team sucks in any sport, it's like, why do 431 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,159 Speaker 1: I need this great player? If my team sucks, I 432 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,640 Speaker 1: should trade them right, I'm going nowhere. This guy has 433 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:30,879 Speaker 1: a lot of value. It's the easiest way to reset 434 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 1: my franchise. The Cowboys were winning no games. I think 435 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 1: they were like oh and six or zero and seven 436 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 1: at the time, and they traded herschel Walker and everyone's like, wait, 437 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: you're telling me he'll fire Tom Landry and trade our 438 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 1: best player. It's like your team sucks, and your team 439 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: has sucked for several years. Who cares how good this 440 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 1: player is. But it makes you realize back in the day, 441 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 1: the way these teams made a lot of money was 442 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 1: getting you to show up at the game. This wasn't 443 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 1: I think about. Like when I was a kid and 444 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: I watched you know, I grew up. Our local games 445 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 1: were for basketball, were the Sacramento Kings. And I didn't 446 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 1: have cable TV because where I lived, you either had 447 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 1: we didn't get basic cable. You had to get either 448 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: the satellite or nothing. And we didn't get the satellite 449 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: till probably like two thousand, so like my freshman year 450 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 1: in high school, and we used to just have basic channels, right, ABC, NBCCBS, 451 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 1: Fox and like our local channel. And the Sacramento Kings, who, 452 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 1: like any NBA team, plays eighty two games. I'm pretty 453 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,879 Speaker 1: sure we got like twenty five or thirty games. Like 454 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 1: that was the local TV deal. You got a quarter 455 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 1: of the games, and that wasn't that long twenty five 456 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: years ago. And nowadays everything is predicated on the television numbers. 457 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: So whether you come to the game or not, like 458 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 1: no one would just suck and just not trade herschel 459 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 1: Walker for a wle. So I think the world has 460 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 1: changed so much in sports, So why I say with 461 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 1: Miles Garrett, Jimmy Haslam was given a get out of 462 00:23:56,040 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 1: jail free card. He asked for a trade. Your team sucks. 463 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: He's an all time great player. You could just press 464 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,919 Speaker 1: the pivot button trade them for a whole But it's like, no, 465 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 1: we got to keep them, do you really? No, you don't. 466 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: The right move would have been to trade them. But yeah, man, 467 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 1: I just I get a little nostalgic watching that documentary. 468 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 1: I'm excited to watch the rest of I highly recommend it. 469 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,399 Speaker 1: This is not a paid advertisement. This is just a 470 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 1: lover of football that there's something too. And we were 471 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 1: talking about this this morning in the pre show meeting. 472 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,399 Speaker 1: You know, now we know so much about guys social media. 473 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 1: Guys have their own YouTube channels, so many guys have 474 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 1: their own like documentaries, and I just there's not a 475 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 1: mysterious element to basically any famous person anymore. And back 476 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,160 Speaker 1: then you're like, wait, these guys have a home where 477 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:50,959 Speaker 1: hookers and cocaine just wait for them after practice, Like 478 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,679 Speaker 1: this is really going on? Like some of these stories 479 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: with Michael Jordan, no one actually knows if it's true 480 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:58,959 Speaker 1: or not because we just don't know. You know, it's like, 481 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 1: is this true? Maybe did he really slam an eighteen 482 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 1: pack and then score forty five? No one's ever tweeted 483 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,640 Speaker 1: about it, no one's ever shown me video about it. 484 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:09,920 Speaker 1: It's just stuff of legend. It might as well be true. 485 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,640 Speaker 1: And sometimes when you hear these stories, you like want them. 486 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:17,240 Speaker 1: It's like, this is badass, and now we have the NBA. 487 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,719 Speaker 1: The Oklahoma City Thunder just won the championship and half 488 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 1: their guys never had a beer. Meanwhile, Michael Irvin was saying, yeah, 489 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 1: we were all doing blow ecstasy and hookers. So it's 490 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 1: just different time, fun times. It's almost like a movie. 491 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 1: Remember when ESPN got shipped from the NFL for playmakers, 492 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 1: It's like, guys, it's kind of like the mid nineties cowboys. 493 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 1: I saw today that Anthony Richardson's agent. I think you 494 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: gotta be very careful. When you're starting quarterback and a 495 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 1: good player, you could say some things that pissed people off. 496 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 1: Your agent can say some things. I remember hearing a 497 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 1: story when I was in the NFL, how Tom Condon 498 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,719 Speaker 1: and Bill Pollian used to get into it. Tom Condon 499 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:59,679 Speaker 1: was Peyton Manning's agent, and basically, I mean was just 500 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,400 Speaker 1: drove a hard bargain. Peyton Manning liked his money, and 501 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,200 Speaker 1: I remember hearing a story don't know if it's true 502 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: or not, want to believe it where Bill Pollyan basically 503 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 1: hung up on him because he was screaming like, how 504 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,720 Speaker 1: do you expect me to build a team? And Tom 505 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:16,639 Speaker 1: Condon was like more more, who knows if that's exactly 506 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 1: how it went down, but I want to believe it. 507 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: And Peyton Manning had that juice, so if his agent 508 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,120 Speaker 1: wanted to piss off the GM, he could. Same with 509 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,400 Speaker 1: Tom Brady, same with Patrick Mahomes, same with Aaron Rodgers, 510 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,479 Speaker 1: same with great players in their prime. You know, no 511 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 1: one ever wants to hear from really a couple of people, 512 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 1: the kicker, the punter, the long snapper, and the backup quarterback. 513 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,160 Speaker 1: Toy most backup quarterbacks we never hear from. The Chicago 514 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: Bears just gave Tyson Badget two years, ten million dollars. 515 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 1: You know why they love the guy. Ben Johnson was 516 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 1: singing his praises. Like a week ago. I saw Ryan 517 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 1: Poles during the Bills game the preseason game was in 518 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:54,640 Speaker 1: the booth and I wasn't watching live, but I saw 519 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: the headline that he said he's the hardest working guy 520 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: on the team. But they just love the guy. And 521 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: that's how any guy. You know, Chase Daniels had a 522 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 1: fourteen year career as a backup, started a career five 523 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: games in his life, played in the NFL for fourteen years. 524 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 1: You know why guys liked him. Guys loved him. You 525 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 1: know who one of Andy Reid and the Chiefs favorite 526 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:18,400 Speaker 1: players was Chad Henny backup quarterback because you basically become 527 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 1: like an assistant coach. You're there to service the starting quarterback, 528 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,199 Speaker 1: help him out during the week, service the defense, and 529 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,399 Speaker 1: just being a good vibe guy. Yet Anthony Richardson, I 530 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 1: think is gonna be tough for him come to grips. 531 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 1: Not Anthony Richardson. Maybe, I mean he believes. I'm sure 532 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 1: he's a starter, but like you're a backup, bro, that's 533 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,159 Speaker 1: who you are, and honestly, there's nothing wrong with that. 534 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 1: You can have a long career and maybe he could 535 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:40,240 Speaker 1: become a starter, but you went from being a starter 536 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,159 Speaker 1: to now you're a backup, and let's face it, he 537 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 1: wouldn't start for any team in the league in twenty 538 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,160 Speaker 1: twenty five. Right now, he would not start for any 539 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 1: team in the league. He needs a lot of work 540 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,679 Speaker 1: to be done, and hopefully for his sake, like a 541 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 1: Sean McVay and Andy Reid, someone like that, trades for 542 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 1: him and just works with him on the side while 543 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 1: their starter and their team plays. But his agent got 544 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 1: a little mouthee today. I saw some quotes on ESPN 545 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 1: dot com and I was like, I don't know if 546 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: that's a great idea. Let me I had him pulled up. 547 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 1: And then here's what Anthony Richardson's agent told ESPN. We 548 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 1: have a lot to discuss. Trust is a big factor, 549 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 1: and that is at best questionable right now. Anthony came 550 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,679 Speaker 1: back and made the improvements in the areas he needed 551 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: to improve, and by all accounts, he had a great camp. 552 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: Schiken made a decision. That's the decision we got to 553 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: live with. But no hard feelings, nothing personal. I just 554 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,239 Speaker 1: think that that was Anthony Richardson saying that Syken made 555 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 1: the decision, nothing personal. Meanwhile, his agent saying, by all 556 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 1: accounts he made the improvements. I didn't know his agent 557 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: was on the coaching staff. I didn't know he was 558 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 1: the assistant GM. How the fuck would he know that? 559 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 1: But most importantly, sometimes you've become the company you keep 560 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 1: and this guy works for Anthony Richson, and Anthony Richinson 561 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,360 Speaker 1: doesn't work for this guy. And Anthony said all the 562 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 1: right things after getting benched, but when you're the backup quarterback, 563 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 1: you don't want your agent saying things like this. It 564 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 1: does not help your case. And to me, someone ideally 565 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson, but someone in Anthony Richmond's life would tell 566 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: him to get on the phone with his agent and say, 567 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 1: don't ever say that again. Don't ever speak for me 568 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: publicly again. And maybe he's speaking for him, because Anthony 569 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 1: Richardson is not going to say this publicly because he can't. 570 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 1: But this is not a good look. And this is 571 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: what you got to be very careful of. Last year, 572 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 1: you had a moment that, by all accounts, based on 573 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 1: all the former players, the most embarrassing moment in like 574 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 1: the history of the NFL. He just tapped out in 575 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: the middle of a game at quarterback, unheard of, unprecedented, 576 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 1: just because he was tired. Now because he was injured. 577 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,960 Speaker 1: He just needed a sip of water. Every player was 578 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 1: like fell out of their chair. They couldn't believe it. 579 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 1: People are like, you know, Lamar Jackson like runs, uh, 580 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 1: you know, a thousand yards a game all around, and 581 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: I've never even seen him remotely been like hey, I 582 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 1: need a blow. But and I believe that's when his 583 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: career unofficially ended for the Colts. You gotta be careful 584 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,480 Speaker 1: because if you start being viewed as a backup, developmental player. 585 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,720 Speaker 1: Say this for Trey Lance, he might not be a 586 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:23,960 Speaker 1: great football player and never lived up to the hype 587 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 1: clearly for being a top pick. There's not much drama there. 588 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 1: There's no complaining there. There's not people bitching him moaning there. 589 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 1: And when you do that, it's like anything in life, 590 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 1: you become exhausting, you become it's like, you know those 591 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:41,720 Speaker 1: needy friends, you know those needs. I don't really do 592 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 1: needy people in my life. I think that's why me 593 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 1: and Colin get along really well and have a great 594 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 1: working relationship. Both of us are just we don't need shit, 595 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: you know, just tell me when where I'm not gonna 596 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: ask any questions. I'm very easy to deal with. I'm 597 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 1: not that complicated. I'm very low maintenance in the sense 598 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 1: of like not asking for much, and I think that's 599 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 1: what I want on my backup quarterback. So I think 600 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson's agent did his clients a major disservice because 601 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 1: now it's like, I don't think it's a lock Anthey, 602 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 1: Richard's on the team come week one because you're gonna 603 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 1: have him as a backup. That doesn't make much sense. 604 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 1: Another thing I think with quarterbacks, a lot of people 605 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 1: have been saying this. I got a text to day 606 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 1: from an NFL buddy because we did a segment on 607 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 1: the television show about television, I mean Collin Show that 608 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 1: Burrow like, is he gonna ask for a trade after 609 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 1: the season? Is this season gonna be the one that 610 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 1: breaks the Campbell's back and the floodgates open? And Burrow 611 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 1: goes like full NBA player, like get me the hell 612 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 1: out of here. And maybe that's true because if you 613 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 1: watch the Monday night game, their defense looks atrocious. I 614 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: think it's easier to overcompensate for average personnel and outscheme 615 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 1: people on offense than it is defense. Like you can 616 00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: either make open field tackles or you can. You can 617 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: either rush the pass or you can't. Like there is 618 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 1: a physical component of defense that like I'm dictating where 619 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 1: I'm going on offense on defense, I'm just following you. Right. 620 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 1: It's a lot harder if my corners can't play. My 621 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 1: corners can't play. And the stat I mentioned this yesterday 622 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 1: is the Trey Hendrickson accounted for almost half the bengalsacks. 623 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: So their defense suck. Last year. This guy was dominant. 624 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 1: He accounted for half the sacks. You remove him, their 625 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: defense is gonna be really bad now. I think at 626 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 1: the end of the day, he's gonna end up playing. 627 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 1: But even if this goes poorly and Joe Burrow has 628 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 1: another forty five touchdown season, he's remarkable. Team misses the playoffs, 629 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,320 Speaker 1: fire the coach, he could go, It's time for me 630 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 1: to leave. Send me to a real organization. We've seen 631 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 1: this before. Carson Palmer was on the show today. Carson 632 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,040 Speaker 1: Palmer once told Mike Brown, I'm done playing here. Trade me, 633 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 1: and Mike Brown said, kiss my ass, and Carson Palmer retired. 634 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: Like that happened, You think Mike Brown twenty years later, 635 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 1: maybe a little less seventeen eight ten years later, older, 636 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:04,719 Speaker 1: more stubborn is gonna be like, oh yeah, Joe, I'll 637 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 1: just trade to the Rams for a couple first round picks. 638 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 1: No chance, absolutely zero, especially after he just paid the 639 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 1: wide receivers. So now the reality is Joe Burrow accepted 640 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,320 Speaker 1: his contract and who knows, maybe they end up their 641 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,240 Speaker 1: defense a little better and they win ten games. But 642 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 1: one thing with football that will never change. You can 643 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 1: win games with an elite offense, but you cannot beat 644 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 1: real teams, and especially win playoff games or bowl games 645 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 1: or conference championships if your defense just blows because in 646 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 1: the biggest games, you're playing the best teams, and typically 647 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 1: the best teams are well rounded. So Mike Leach's best 648 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 1: teams at Washington State or at Texas Tech, their fundamental 649 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: flaw was always going to be. Offensively, they might be 650 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 1: able to hang with any team, but defensively, they just 651 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 1: weren't going to be good enough. They had no chance, 652 00:33:56,800 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 1: and that's how it kind of feels, and it personnel issue. 653 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,600 Speaker 1: So offensively, I think the Bengals are gonna be awesome. 654 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:07,720 Speaker 1: I think defensively, though, they are going to have major issues. 655 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 1: The volume
