So when 177 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 4: you say, man, the Niners, you know they're eleven and four, 178 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 4: where a clear path to number one if they beat 179 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 4: the Bears and it's then it's a game for everything 180 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 4: against the Seahawks. 181 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 2: Here's the thing, though, I said that at the beginning 182 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 2: of the year, So I knew. 183 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 4: My Niners because they at a struggle year last year, 184 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 4: we're going to get a weaker NFC schedule, and they did, 185 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 4: and they capitalized on that. I remember saying that ten 186 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 4: and a half eleven total games spread in Vegas. I 187 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 4: was like, yo, slam me over because they played No. 188 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 2: One this year. But again that's not on them. 189 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 4: Number four with an opponent winning percentage of four to twenty. 190 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 2: Oh, the Chargers. 191 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 4: Justin Herbert looking good, Horba coaching himself to the playoffs? 192 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 2: Do you believe in the Chargers? 193 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 3: Well, dude, I want to go through the list before 194 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 3: I give you my full seven here, because two things 195 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 3: can be true. Yeah, you gotta win the games you're given. 196 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 3: You can only play who's on your schedule. That's all true, 197 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 3: and that's all fine and dandy. But as a fight fan, 198 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 3: if you're beating a bunch of tomato cans, as they 199 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,439 Speaker 3: say in the in the game, in the business, then 200 00:08:58,520 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 3: have you really been battle tested? 201 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 2: That is also true. The Bears does matter. 202 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 4: The Bears have the second weakest schedule in the NFC. 203 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 4: Their opponent's winning percentage four twenty. I'll zip through this. 204 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 4: Your top two are your two best teams in the AFC. 205 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 4: Number two the Broncos got an opponent winning percentage of 206 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 4: four thirteen and get this, to. 207 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 1: Quote one to quote Timmy, No bricks get this number one. 208 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 4: The Patriots opponents have an under four winning percentage three 209 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:43,200 Speaker 4: ninety one. So the weakest schedules in the AFC. You're 210 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 4: talking about the Patriots and the Broncos, and here they 211 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 4: are sitting in the number one and number two seed 212 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,719 Speaker 4: in the AFC, Which is why the parody in the 213 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 4: NFL is great. 214 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 2: You struggle, you got a weak ass schedule. 215 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 4: The next year you have that advantage, and if you 216 00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 4: could take advantage of that advantage, we are Danny GM 217 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 4: last year. Look at the teams that we're talking about. 218 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 4: The forty nine Ers and Bears are two teams. I 219 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 4: remember last year, Kayleb Williams under delivered. Remember they started 220 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 4: all hot and everyone's like, ooh, Kayleb Williams, and then 221 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 4: they failed down the stretch and the forty nine Ers 222 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:16,559 Speaker 4: were decimated with. 223 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 6: Injuries after the Hail Mary. 224 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 4: Remember the Hail Mary where the Bears start, they thought 225 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 4: they won it. I think they lost like every game 226 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 4: after that. And then in the AFC, the Patriots were 227 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,079 Speaker 4: on their downturn and the Broncos had an off year 228 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 4: because that division was just you know, more competitive last 229 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 4: year than the Chiefs and everyone were dominating. So is 230 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 4: that just the way the NFL works or do you 231 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 4: think we're looking at some soft teams that might be 232 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 4: a little inflated? 233 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 3: Now do you want the truth, the boring answer, the 234 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:52,079 Speaker 3: boring answers will never know until we see it play out, right, 235 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 3: because matches, styles make fights, matchups make games, And that's 236 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 3: really the truth here. The truth is we don't know, 237 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 3: and that's the yes, that's no, Yeah, we don't that's 238 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 3: the real boring answer, and that's the truth. But right 239 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 3: now they're looking good. They haven't played a really competitive 240 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 3: team to show us otherwise, or their schedules has been 241 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 3: a little easier than others. So this is no knock on, 242 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,680 Speaker 3: you know, so you gonna say, Rich, it's a soft 243 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 3: number two for the Broncos, a soft number one. 244 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 4: The path you know, not to knock FS one or ESPN. 245 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 4: You know, you look around at the TV's in the 246 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 4: studio today and yesterday. The conversations are could the Bears 247 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 4: make a run? Are the forty nine is for real? 248 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 2: Hey? Could Sean Payton and the Broncos? 249 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 4: Because everyone's questioning these teams that turned around pretty quick there, 250 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 4: they got good paths to high seeds in the playoffs, 251 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 4: but their schedules are all among the weakest. Again, you 252 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 4: could only play who's on your schedule. 253 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,679 Speaker 2: That is. It's not a knock on that. 254 00:11:57,679 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 4: That's a sentiment that we've talked about for years. Actually, 255 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 4: you know, wrote down tired argument or legit point when 256 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 4: people say things like that, like, well look who they played, Well, 257 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 4: it's like, dude, you don't make the schedule like you know. 258 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 2: It. 259 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 4: So what the forty nine has played the Titans and 260 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 4: the Cardinals and that's who's on their schedule. 261 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 3: But there's no diggity, no doubt that that matters. It 262 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 3: absolutely matters. Like I said, compare it to fights. If 263 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 3: you're looking at someone's fight record on their Wikipedia and 264 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 3: it's a bunch of no names that they beat, what 265 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 3: does that prove to you? It proves nothing. It's who 266 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 3: you beat and how you beat them, you know. And Okay, 267 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 3: if you really want to are they how are they 268 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 3: fundamentally right? And in the top five are pretty solid 269 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 3: fundamentally So that does factor into the equation they could 270 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 3: go for. Any say it doesn't matter is false. It 271 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 3: absolutely does matter. 272 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 4: We were doing that college football bracket for Fox Sports 273 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 4: Radio if people want to play a long Yeah, it's 274 00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 4: like the NCAA tournament every March. There's a team that's 275 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,440 Speaker 4: their part of the bracket. People will argue like their 276 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 4: paths were the final four is week and it's like, no, 277 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 4: they just st of lucked out. A couple of teams lost. 278 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 4: There was an upset here and there. What are you 279 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 4: gonna blame them for having a little luck on their side? Dude, 280 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 4: if you go to a bar, not to be all pervy. 281 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 4: But if you go to a bar and every other 282 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 4: dude there's a weenie. 283 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 3: You can't say not to be all pervy and then 284 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 3: be pervy all the time. But I'm saying who you are. 285 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 4: That's saying if you, if you, if you're a single 286 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:33,959 Speaker 4: guy and you go to a bar and every other 287 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 4: guy there is a loser and you go home with 288 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 4: some hawk girl? 289 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 2: Really, is it really you? 290 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 4: Or like your you know, your competition is weak ass 291 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 4: like competition and sometimes you've. 292 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 2: Got to capitalize to you. 293 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,560 Speaker 4: But isn't that what we keep saying about the Buffalo Bills, 294 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 4: Danny g and the AFC, Like man the chiefs had 295 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 4: it down yere and you know Lamar's heard and. 296 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 3: But That's what I'm saying, Rich. It's always that this 297 00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:00,199 Speaker 3: or that conversation, especially in sports. Two things can be true, Right, 298 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 3: they have week schedule, they're playing who they can. But 299 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 3: yes it does matter, Yes it does matter. 300 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 5: Also, something we should think about is some of the teams, 301 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 5: when we looked at their schedule before the season began, 302 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 5: We're like, oh, that's gonna be an insane game, and 303 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 5: then that team winds up having a really bad season. 304 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 5: Nobody saw it coming, like the Commanders for instance. Of course, 305 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 5: you know we didn't think they were gonna be what 306 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 5: four and eleven right now? 307 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 4: If you saw the Commanders on your schedule. In fact, 308 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 4: I'll be truthful. When I looked at the forty nine Ers, 309 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 4: as you know, if you don't know Covino and Rich, 310 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 4: I'm Rich forty nine Ers fan. When I looked at 311 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 4: the final stretch of the season, yo, mid season, I 312 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 4: was like yo, Monday night in Indianapolis when they were 313 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 4: like seven and one, eight and two. I remember thinking like, oh, man, 314 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 4: well there's an l on the schedule. Because at that 315 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 4: time you're like, man, Daniel Jones is cooking, and I 316 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 4: remember thinking like, all right, well, when we put an L. 317 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 2: That might be an L. 318 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 4: And then you know, fast forward, the run game dies 319 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 4: in Indianapolis. Jonathan Taylor goes from running for one hundred 320 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 4: and twenty yards a game to like seventy. Philip Rivers 321 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 4: is the quarterback and the team can't win.

These teams are still winning games 350 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 4: when they have to win again. 351 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 3: If you just joined us Covino and Richard for Dan 352 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 3: Patrick easiest strength of schedule this season, rich is forty 353 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 3: nine ers or fifth Chargers forth the Bears or third, 354 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 3: Broncos or second and the Patriots and number one with 355 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 3: the easiest strength of schedule?

Drake May is the man? 358 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 3: Drake May is the man? Drake May is the man? 359 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 3: Is he the man? If he hasn't beaten anyone? 360 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 6: That matters? 361 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 5: And from the Corrections Department, Thursday Night Football, Broncos Chiefs. 362 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 6: Oh, Broncos Chiefs in Kansas City. 363 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 4: I'm sorry, not Chargers Chiefs.

That's what I was thinking. 366 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,120 Speaker 4: But you know what it's to quote Shepard Smith back 367 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 4: in the day, I'm not sure what happened there, won't 368 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 4: happen again. 369 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 3: Won't happen again.

Eight seven seven and ninety nine on Fox. 371 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,159 Speaker 3: It does matter, rich Uh. You know Billy Madison was 372 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 3: a great dodgeball player. You know why because he was 373 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 3: playing against kindy Gardners. Oh, it's not good to karate exactly. 374 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 3: You took the words right out of my mouth, Meet Loaf. 375 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 3: You know Kramer was a was a black belt in karate. 376 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,200 Speaker 3: Because he's playing a bunch of little he's fighting a 377 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 3: bunch of little kids. 378 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 2: You know, these things do matter. But at the same time, 379 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,640 Speaker 2: you can only play who's on your schedule. Two things 380 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 2: can be true. I know that's boring, but that's the facts. 381 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 2: That's the truth. 382 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 4: Doesn't that apply to someone we're gonna talk about later 383 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 4: on the show, Jake Paul until he fought a real 384 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 4: fighter like Anthony Joshua. What was the sentiment, well, look 385 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 4: who he's fighting. You know, look who they're playing. That's 386 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 4: you know, that's a that's a common sentiment, uh overall, 387 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 4: And yes, and it. 388 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,120 Speaker 2: Was a matter of yeah, but it's but it's entertaining, 389 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 2: so who cares? 390 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 6: Right? 391 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 3: So yeah, you have to factor in who the competition 392 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 3: is in everything you do. I have a question for you, hey, rich, 393 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:21,679 Speaker 3: just take it back to real life. You may have 394 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:25,160 Speaker 3: been the king of your street in wiffleball or or 395 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 3: tackle football. You really didn't know how good you were 396 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 3: until you dabbled into the other neighborhoods. And that's you know, 397 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 3: how life works. 398 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:37,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, let's let's let's honestly, let's let's all be real there. 399 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,640 Speaker 4: What Cavino just said is how we all realized we 400 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 4: weren't good enough to play pro sports. 401 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 3: Or you may have been great in high school and 402 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,439 Speaker 3: then you get to college and realize that there's beasts 403 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 3: from all other counties all over the country. 404 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 4: That is when most of us realized, oh, I guess 405 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:52,359 Speaker 4: I'm not going to play pro sports. Because you might 406 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 4: have been a pretty good high school player, you played 407 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,399 Speaker 4: in college, you played you know, at a at bigger 408 00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 4: school and you're like. 409 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 3: Oh, now we're The only difference here is we're talking 410 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:05,160 Speaker 3: about professional athletes. So they're all great, and they're all good, 411 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 3: and it's any given Sunday. But still some teams are 412 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 3: better than others. I know that matchup is in front 413 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 3: of us. 414 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 2: I think there's a wild stat about the forty nine Ers. 415 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,159 Speaker 4: I'm gonna get to next, and I'll just say this, 416 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 4: it's more wild than the fact that they haven't punted, 417 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,160 Speaker 4: since it's like Thanksgiving. 418 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,199 Speaker 2: No punt November. Man, they haven't punted since you were 419 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 2: eating Thanksgiving leftover. Since that's crazy. You know, honestly, mostead 420 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 2: they're punter. 421 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 4: I think he had leftover stuffing in cranberry sauce more 422 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 4: recently than punted in an NFL game. But there's a 423 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 4: more interesting stat about the Niners. So we'll talk a 424 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 4: little NFC West, forty nine Ers, Rams Seahawks. 425 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:44,479 Speaker 2: How do you see this panning out?

Right, So because 491 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,880 Speaker 4: you suck, you get a favorable schedule the next year, 492 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:56,719 Speaker 4: you take advantage of that. 493 00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 3: Hey, if you were the prom king in your high school, 494 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,479 Speaker 3: but your high school was like forty kids, you're not 495 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 3: that awesome. You didn't have any competition. 496 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 2: That's insulting. 497 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 6: You know. 498 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 2: That was Spots girls. Spot's wife is the prom queen. Yeah, 499 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 2: but there's like three girls and are graduating class.

But I mean, I mean, but still, that's 502 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 3: how life works, you know, Like it does. Competition matters, you. 503 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 4: Know what I know when I think about that a lot, 504 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 4: Danny g. You ever see someone playing Rex sports and 505 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 4: they talk about their high school prowess and you're like, 506 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,159 Speaker 4: it does no way, you were a good athlete, and 507 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 4: you're like, what. 508 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 2: Did you go to high school with? Like four people 509 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 2: like the. 510 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,640 Speaker 4: Guys I play REX softball with Comedo And they're like, yeah, 511 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 4: back in the day when I. 512 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:35,640 Speaker 2: Was old County what like what county? 513 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 6: Like yeah? Meanwhile, meanwhile, Rich has JJ McCarthy face paint on. 514 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:44,400 Speaker 4: That was I'm balling, bro Yes, yes, hey, I told 515 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 4: you how a forty nine or a little not fun fact. 516 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,400 Speaker 4: There's nothing really fun about it, but really interesting. More 517 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 4: so than the whole Morsetead hasn't punted since he was 518 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:59,120 Speaker 4: having Thanksgiving leftovers. The forty miners, they are that their mine, 519 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:03,679 Speaker 4: they're my team Niners. You know they might not have 520 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 4: to leave the Bay Area until August. 521 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 2: I did not know that. Then again, you're the schedule watcher. 522 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 2: Think about it. 523 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 4: If the forty nine ers win on Sunday Night against 524 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:22,640 Speaker 4: the Bears, then it's a all or nothing Week eighteen, 525 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 4: and you know they're gonna make that the primetime game 526 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 4: against the Seahawks Niner Seahawks winner would get the one seed. 527 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:32,159 Speaker 4: Let's say the Niners win that game, then the path 528 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 4: to the super Bowl goes through San Francisco, so they 529 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 4: would they play against the Bears in Santa Clara. They 530 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:42,200 Speaker 4: play against the Seahawks, then the playoffs would go through 531 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 4: Santa Clara, and. 532 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 2: Then the Super Bowl is in San Francisco this year. 533 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 4: So if the forty nine ers win, they don't have 534 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 4: to leave the Bay until next season. 535 00:24:58,080 --> 00:24:58,439 Speaker 2: Dude. 536 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,919 Speaker 4: So if you think comfort and not having to travel 537 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 4: plays a factor, the forty nine ers could unpack the bags. 538 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 4: McCaffrey could be hanging out with Olivia Culpo and his 539 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 4: beautiful baby. George Kittle could be hanging out with his 540 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,639 Speaker 4: awesome wife, and us Check could be you know, designing 541 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:16,360 Speaker 4: jackets with his you know girlfriend, and so this could 542 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:17,879 Speaker 4: all be easy. 543 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 2: Breezy nine has just got to win. 544 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 3: Now, Look realistically, what Randy Machelman Savage said rings true. 545 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 3: The cream rises to the top regardless. But this is 546 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 3: all great for forty nine ers. What you're saying is 547 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 3: the eleven and four forty nine ers have everything going 548 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,920 Speaker 3: for him because not only strength of schedule and not 549 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:37,160 Speaker 3: having to leave for a while. 550 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 2: What else did macho man say?

But what Rich is? 559 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:03,400 Speaker 6: Also again Elizabeth, Elizabeth. 560 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,439 Speaker 2: Will will you marry me? 561 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 3: They have a lot of things going their way because 562 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 3: I got to Sam, they're clicking just the right time. 563 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 3: So not only do they have to not travel and 564 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 3: haven't punted and all that good stuff, they're clicking. Their 565 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 3: offense seem seemed unstoppable against the Colts this week. They 566 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 3: moved the ball down the field with ease, They made 567 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 3: it look easy, and they scored at will. So it 568 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 3: seems like, you know, Rich doesn't want to get ahead 569 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 3: of himself as the excited forty nine ers fan, but 570 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 3: they've got everything in their favor right now.

It's a Christmas Eve extravagance, as 661 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 4: we feel in for Dan Patrick. So there's a deep 662 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,240 Speaker 4: thought about movies and sports. I want to get to 663 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 4: and there's a new NBA tradition. You tell me you 664 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 4: let's choose our own little Christmas adventure. 665 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 3: I want to talk about the NBA tradition because I 666 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 3: know what you're talking about is the Spurs here. And 667 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 3: it's a really simple question that we ask you Fox 668 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,640 Speaker 3: Sports Radio Nation. Is it cool or corny the new 669 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 3: Spurs tradition.

I'm just stating that it feels a 851 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 3: little corny. That's all you're asking me. I'm not here 852 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 3: to criticize Wenby.

Some take time, dude, 857 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 3: so like, you know, this is fresh. It's like when 858 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 3: you hear a song for the first time, people like, do. 859 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 2: You like it? 860 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:32,960 Speaker 3: Well, sometimes it takes a minute to grow on. You 861 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 3: give me a second and it's brand new. We rarely 862 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:40,880 Speaker 3: see how the organic they they start in this way, 863 00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:44,319 Speaker 3: and that's why it feels a little weird like he's 864 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 3: sort of instructing the tradition. 865 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:49,880 Speaker 2: Carry is that how they start, like even a holiday tradition. 866 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:51,279 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm you presenting it. 867 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 4: Listen, dude, I'm My kids are five and eight, and 868 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:57,760 Speaker 4: my wife and I have talked about how a tradition 869 00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:01,680 Speaker 4: needs to start somewhere, like every Christmas Eve, you know, 870 00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:03,719 Speaker 4: you go around with the kids and do some you know. 871 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:07,520 Speaker 3: But isn't it usually because like that's what Grandpappy Davis did. 872 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:10,319 Speaker 4: But sometimes you got to start your own traditions. If 873 00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:12,439 Speaker 4: you come from a family that doesn't really have many, 874 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:15,280 Speaker 4: you and your you and your family start a tradition. 875 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:20,440 Speaker 4: I think Wemby's saying anowledge. He's saying, this is the 876 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:24,240 Speaker 4: next chapter in San Antonio Spur's history. We pay respect 877 00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:28,279 Speaker 4: to the legends of Tim Duncan and David Robinson, but 878 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:30,480 Speaker 4: you know this is a new era. And I'm breaking 879 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:33,640 Speaker 4: out this big ass bass drum and I think it's cool. 880 00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:35,360 Speaker 2: Man, Like, Hey, I don't. 881 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:36,920 Speaker 3: Want to hate on the guy.

Carry said, I'm a Vikings fan lifelong, 888 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 4: but I think the skull chant could be corny. 889 00:41:58,280 --> 00:41:59,839 Speaker 2: I don't know. There's a bunch of room. 890 00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:03,080 Speaker 4: You can name every tradition and a guy like Steve 891 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 4: Covino is gonna just think everything's corny.
