13
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 2: I was trying to think about the last time we

14
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:44,760
Speaker 2: actually did a show together. We see each other every

15
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 2: single weekend, obviously, but we did a couple of shows

16
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 2: back in the day.

17
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,199
Speaker 1: Yes, I know that, yep, two years ago and then

18
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 1: three coming out of COVID when they were trying to

19
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 1: figure out what they wanted to do with me after

20
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 1: filling in a lot for the Yacht couple, they peered

21
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 1: me up with you like back to back Sundays or

22
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: sevend Yes, it was. It was going in the college

23
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: football season, right, and then last year like a few

24
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,040
Speaker 1: Saturday and Sundays they team or something Saday. They must

25
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,320
Speaker 1: think we work man. I don't know, you know Hartman

26
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: or Huskey. I mean it rolls off.

27
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 3: The team rights itself, It rights itself. All right, I

28
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 3: want to start with something right now?

29
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 2: Sure and okay, So yesterday doing my show with Monci,

30
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 2: we got into this.

31
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:27,039
Speaker 1: Discussion miss Blanos about.

32
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,319
Speaker 2: Who is the best rookie this year in the WNBA,

33
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 2: and I said, well, let's let's there's two ways to

34
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:43,960
Speaker 2: look at something, most valuable versus actual best player. And

35
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 2: so my argument yesterday was this, you got Angel Reese

36
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 2: and obviously have Caitlin Clark. Now, if you're talking about

37
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 2: value to the league, if you're actually talking about who

38
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 2: is the most valuable player in the WNBA, it should unanimously.

39
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 3: Be Caitlin Clark. Because she puts butts in seats. That's

40
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 3: not the way I look.

41
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: Say that again. I just want to make sure I

42
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 1: got that right. If she's the most good.

43
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 3: The most valuable player to the league in terms of

44
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 3: who has value to the WNBA, value to the WNBA

45
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 3: means you are one that is making us money. Putting

46
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 3: butts in seats doesn't necessarily mean you're the best player.

47
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 3: It means you're the most valuable player. And no one

48
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 3: has ever exemplified value to a league more than Caitlin Clark.

49
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 3: But that was my question. Question is who's the best rookie?

50
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 2: So I look at Angel Reese and I look at

51
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark, and I said, here's an interesting note. Each

52
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 2: one of these women is currently leading the WNBA in

53
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 2: one major category. Angel Reese is leading the WNBA in rebounding,

54
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 2: and Kaitlin Clark is leading the.

55
00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:58,959
Speaker 1: League in turnovers.

56
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 2: In fact, she will be setting a single season record

57
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 2: for turnovers. By the All Star break, halfway through the season,

58
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 2: she will already have more turnovers than any woman has

59
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 2: ever had. But here's where I said, when we talk

60
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,359
Speaker 2: about value to the team wind shares. Are you a

61
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 2: big war stat fan? No, neither of mine. But they

62
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 2: have something called the tape on. Yeah, Well they have

63
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 2: the wind share stat.

64
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 3: It's an equivalent of war like, in other words, how

65
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 3: many wins do you actually account for for your team?

66
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 3: And since the Sky and the Fever basically have the

67
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 3: same record, Ada Rees has a wind share of two

68
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 3: point six.

69
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 2: Kaylin Clark is at one point one. It's not even close.

70
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 2: So if I were to be asked, who's your rookie

71
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 2: of the year based on game, overwhelmingly it's Angel Reee,

72
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 2: which has been the most valuable rookie in terms of

73
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 2: attention to the league. Obviously it's Caitlyn Clark. Now I

74
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 2: know that you are an Angel Reese fans.

75
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 1: Boo, I'm not a fan. Like we kind of go together.

76
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: She just don't know it yet, Like, let's let my

77
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 1: little imaginary you know it's my boo boo. Man, Okay,

78
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: so you must have.

79
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 2: I wish you had heard this because you would have

80
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,840
Speaker 2: been jumping through your skin saying, finally somebody is speaking

81
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:21,239
Speaker 2: the truth.

82
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 1: I heard you, guys, just said. I listened to you

83
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,919
Speaker 1: guys on the way, and what did you think? This

84
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 1: is where I am with that. First of all, the

85
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: value to the league thing I punched back at, she's

86
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: valuable to the fever. She hasn't been valuable to the

87
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 1: league because it has been valuable to the league. Let

88
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 1: me break it down and explain it to you guys,

89
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 1: because a lot of times and this isn't directed to

90
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: any one person. This is directed at the masses. See

91
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,160
Speaker 1: we're told in brainwashed, what the kind of thinking? How

92
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 1: to see narratives? And this is the best example I

93
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,280
Speaker 1: can watch where I can watch across the board. I'm

94
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,559
Speaker 1: to the point now, then why can't we just enjoy

95
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 1: both of them? I may not be a Caitlyn Clark fan,

96
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 1: but I do love the way that her toughness has

97
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,679
Speaker 1: stepped up because she was getting punked, she was getting

98
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 1: pushed around, and she was being about it. And then

99
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 1: at one point somebody got to get to her, or

100
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 1: somebody or even herself or dad, somebody say look, this

101
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 1: is what it's gonna be. So you can either power

102
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 1: and you can either complain or you can throw a

103
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 1: little bit back. You can start to find your teammates,

104
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: find yourself in a game. You're not gonna dominate like

105
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 1: you did at Iowa. Get that through your head. But

106
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 1: you're still good enough to stay in this league and

107
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 1: be an effective player. She finds players nicely. She'd have

108
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,280
Speaker 1: more assistant for teamates, didn't drop the ball. And this

109
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 1: is a non Kaitlyn Clark fan saying this. You know

110
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,720
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I could be objective. Andrew Reese is

111
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 1: my girl. I would just like it if she countroll

112
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 1: ther layups a little more. Some of her offensive rebounds

113
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: are off her, all mishots that are terrible attempts. The

114
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 1: value to the league is a false narrative. So it

115
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 1: looks like she's helping really build the league. No, go

116
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: look at the ratings. The Fever games are what people

117
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 1: are watching. People aren't really watching all these other games.

118
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 1: Go look at the disparity between the ratings and the

119
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 1: Fever games and all the other games. So don't tell

120
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: me she's a value to the league. She's a value

121
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 1: to the Fever in her brand, which is fine, Steve,

122
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: she can be that. But this narrative that she's of

123
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 1: value to the league. So how many people watching the

124
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 1: Mystic games?

125
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 3: How many people are talking about the WNBA before she arrived.

126
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: They're not talking about Once and they're talking about her

127
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 1: and Angel Read they're not talking about the league. Okay,

128
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,040
Speaker 1: So if that was the case, we'd be talking about

129
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: the Liberty, we'd be talking about Brionna, we be talking

130
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:24,919
Speaker 1: about Wilson. Okay.

131
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:29,839
Speaker 2: Where bottom line is is that they're filling arenas people

132
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 2: aren't Maybe The reason is that maybe there isn't the

133
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 2: full carryover to the rest.

134
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 3: Of the league based on her presence with the fever.

135
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:45,599
Speaker 3: Is is that people that are sampling the WNBA, maybe for

136
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 3: the first time ever, are seeing a lot of what

137
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 3: you just said with ange Rees. She's shooting forty one

138
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 3: percent as a big That seems impossible when most of

139
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 3: your shots are literally under the basshitch. If you watch

140
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 3: this league for the first time, you're realizing, you know,

141
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 3: the cell on the women's game is they play the

142
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 3: fundamental game well, right, they play below the rim. You

143
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 3: know it's not all the spectacular, But then you realize

144
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 3: they don't shoot all that well. Inside the shooting percent

145
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 3: you see blown layups, you see the kind of shots

146
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 3: missed in the WNBA that would happen in the NBA.

147
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 1: You're like, dude, out of the line.

148
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 3: You can't you can't play in the league if you

149
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 3: can't make that shot. And that's commonplace in the WNBA.

150
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 2: We can talk about three point shooting right now, Caitlin

151
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 2: Clark barely over thirty percent, And so yeah, I mean,

152
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 2: it is maybe not carrying over because people are saying,

153
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 2: all right, I'm everyone seems to be caught up in

154
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 2: this Caitlin Clark thing. I'm gonna check it out because

155
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 2: everyone else is doing social media and everything else.

156
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 3: So I'm watching some of the Kaitlin. I don't know

157
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 3: how long this is gonna last.

158
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 2: Because I look at it, I remember, and I've been

159
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 2: look at I go back my UCLA days, goes back

160
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 2: to Ann Myers. Am Myers has literally been a friend

161
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 2: of mine for over forty years.

162
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 3: I go back to the first.

163
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 2: Final four in women's college basketball history at a poly

164
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 2: pavilion nineteen seventy eight when my Blood bl Bruins, led

165
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 2: by An Myers, won that first national championship Final four championship.

166
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 2: And so I have been there, and I have followed

167
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 2: the progression of women's basketball over the years, and I

168
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 2: keep asking myself, what is it going to take for

169
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 2: this league to get any recognition hall it's been a

170
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 2: money loser. I remember years ago the women were not

171
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 2: happy about their pay and David Sturn, the commissioner of

172
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 2: the NBA, basically flat out told them, you have two choices.

173
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 2: Choice number one is to take what we give you,

174
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,200
Speaker 2: or Choice covered two is we fuld the.

175
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: League of media. Done.

176
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 3: We are That's how it's operating.

177
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 2: So I don't know what's the future of the WNBA is,

178
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 2: but I do know this when I talk about value,

179
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,960
Speaker 2: she is given the league, not just the fever, the

180
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:02,559
Speaker 2: league attention that we've ever had before for the WNBA. Now,

181
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,440
Speaker 2: whether that's going to have any residual effects, I don't know,

182
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 2: but you know, and look, go back to Tiger Woods

183
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 2: and golf. Right, eyeballs are on golf like never before

184
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 2: with the emergence of Tiger Woods. Did that have a

185
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 2: carryover effect to other players that emerge the stars once

186
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 2: Tiger was off the map?

187
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 1: The answer is no, absolutely not. No, I watch golf,

188
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 1: absolutely not.

189
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 3: But what in the moment right now, she is the

190
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 3: most valuable player in this league by far, not even

191
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 3: close to be in the best. She may not even

192
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 3: a top twenty five player in this league, but in

193
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 3: terms of her value to this league, they have been

194
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 3: given an opportunity that they've never had before and may

195
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:45,240
Speaker 3: never have again.

196
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 1: Like I said, I just still fight back. It gets

197
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 1: it because I see, I look at the numbers, so

198
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 1: numbers don't lie women and men do. Numbers never don't.

199
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 1: And I look at the ratings. People aren't watching all

200
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 1: these other games. So I'm trying to figure out what

201
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 1: this value is to the fever, to her brand. Yes,

202
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:00,439
Speaker 1: and then you have to have a villain, So Angel

203
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 1: Reese is the villain. So everybody's looking at the Chicago's cock.

204
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 2: Is that a conscious decision by Angel rees to attach

205
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 2: herself to Caitlin Clark.

206
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: I don't know. You'd have to ask her that. I mean,

207
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:10,439
Speaker 1: you have to ask her that, because I think I

208
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: think it started, well, it started from the National Championship game.

209
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 1: Why I understand that that's where it started from. She didn't, Yeah,

210
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:20,200
Speaker 1: she did. She did that because she people trash talking sports. Steve,

211
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: you and I are old enough to remember where trash

212
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 1: talk was just a part of sports. Now you look

213
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:25,680
Speaker 1: down on it for talking trash like you look like

214
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 1: you're unclassy. And we can go through the tweets and

215
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 1: the stuff Keith Oberman got blown up for class lists

216
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 1: and calling her names and things of that nature, when

217
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,720
Speaker 1: Kaitlyn Clark was doing the exact same move to her

218
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,320
Speaker 1: opponents during the season and it wasn't an issue. That's that.

219
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: That's a different story for a different day. The value

220
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 1: point that I still just point to is that it's

221
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: either her or Angel. That's who people are talking to.

222
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 1: The best team in the league is New York Liberty

223
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 1: out there. Any radio guy without looking it up, namely

224
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: three starters off that office, name me four starts. It's

225
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: it's like, people, we can and we and we know

226
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 1: we can't, but we want to create this narrative that

227
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 1: I just don't agree with. People can do what they

228
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: want to do. Steve, I'm just looking at the facts

229
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 1: and the figures, and when I look at the ratings

230
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:07,599
Speaker 1: for the Fever games, and then I look at the

231
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,440
Speaker 1: ratings for the rest of the league that don't include

232
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 1: the Fever or the Sky, that's where I go, Okay,

233
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 1: where's this league value coming from? Because they still can't

234
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,719
Speaker 1: draw seven thousand. If it's not the Angel Reese or

235
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 1: Kaitlin Clark, they still can't draw eight thousand. This game

236
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,679
Speaker 1: got five hundred thousand views, but the Chicago Sky and

237
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 1: the Fever game got one point nine million who were

238
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 1: playing in that game, Angel Rees and Kaitlyn Clark. Listen,

239
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 1: if you want to love either one, pick your side. Fine,

240
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 1: I think.

241
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 3: How long do you think this is gonna last?

242
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 1: Then?

243
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 3: Because again, if we're not getting after this year because because.

244
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 1: The young lady from Yukon and then Juju's come like

245
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,959
Speaker 1: there's gonna be this is this is just for the moment.

246
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:48,840
Speaker 1: It was created as a narrative. It was created as

247
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,559
Speaker 1: a story. America loves you put good guy versus bad

248
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 1: guy no matter what it is, even if it's not

249
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 1: really there. Magic and Bird loved each other, but we

250
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,319
Speaker 1: had to make it something. I'm old enough to remember

251
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: sitting in the backyard watching my uncle's argue about it,

252
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 1: and I'm watching the games like wow, as a kid,

253
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 1: I can go these guys don't look like they hate

254
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,679
Speaker 1: each other, but you guys are making it seem like

255
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 1: they hate each other. But they sat down and had

256
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 1: a documentary in the crew where we talked about how

257
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:13,400
Speaker 1: much they loved each other since day won.

258
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 3: But it went to that level because it was also

259
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 3: Laer Celtics.

260
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 1: Anyway.

261
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 3: You talk about a perfect storm for the NBA at that.

262
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: Time, get it. But it wasn't them, it was everybody else.

263
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 1: That's how I feel about Caitlin Clark and injuries. I

264
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 1: do not think these two ladies genuinely dislike each other.

265
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:32,959
Speaker 1: We've been told to make it that way. So now

266
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 1: we gotta pick us out on the MVP thing. You

267
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: know what I would like to see the comedian in me,

268
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: Jason Kidd and Grant Hill style. What happened to those

269
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 1: two guys back in ninety four?

270
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 2: They were tied for the Rookie of the Year award.

271
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 1: That's why I love working with this guy.

272
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 3: Give it to both of them, all right, give it

273
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 3: to both of It may well happen.

274
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 2: We'll see the voting down the line. They both have

275
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 2: been clearly the two dominant.

276
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 3: By the way, remember Angel Reese was the seventh pick

277
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 3: in the draft and she is certainly outplayed two through six,

278
00:12:58,720 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 3: so there's no question about that.

279
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 1: To both have a lot of improvements. To me, well,

280
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 1: Angel is my girl, but man, get your feet together

281
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,079
Speaker 1: when you get the ball. She foul hunts a lot.

282
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:07,199
Speaker 1: That's how she misses a lot of.

283
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 3: Low forty one percent shooting it big is not good.

284
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:11,560
Speaker 1: Should be forty. She should be had about forty eight

285
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 1: forty nine percent from the floor right now. And that's

286
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:15,559
Speaker 1: gonna being a diehard fan, all right, she's got to

287
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 1: clean it up. We'll put that aside for a moment here.

288
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,439
Speaker 3: There's a show that VJ has been watching.

289
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 2: Well, that's sort of a spin off of her show

290
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 2: that I watched every second of. And I'm gonna give

Speaker 2: years ago. It's NFL related. I will tell you all

294

329
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 1: Got you. I remember the showing syndication. You probably do.

330
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 1: You remember when it was coming on weekly but a syndication.

331
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 1: I'm the only guy who thinks that movie was good.

332
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: Everybody I asked about the movie, they like the movie sucked.

333
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 3: Well, the people that said it sucked were the people who.

334
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 1: Actually watch the show. That's what happens.

335
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, usually when they do movie versions of a long

336
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 3: running television show.

337
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 1: It doesn't work. I loved it, man, because again, you're

338
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: getting you get married.

339
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 3: If you're watching a regular show. These characters, these actors

340
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 3: have been on the screen for years after years, so

341
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 3: you get used to them. So when you bring in

342
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 3: new actors portraying the same characters, that's when you have trouble.

343
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: Like the eighteen You're right, because I thought that movie sucked.

344
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 1: And I watched that show as a kid, faithfully, and

345
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 1: I thought that movie show that.

346
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 2: Was like Cheers, you know, like if you do it, it

347
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 2: would not work. Those are the characters of that shit

348
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 2: Cheers fit.

349
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:06,400
Speaker 1: Oh absolutely. My mom used to I mean she made

350
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 1: us watch it. My mom used to love that.

351
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 2: In the nineteen eighties, when I was working as the

352
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 2: pr guy for the Raiders, we had a couple of

353
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 2: games on the road against the Patriots when they sucked

354
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 2: way back in the day.

355
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 3: And so this was during the height of Cheers. So

356
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 3: we're in Boston going.

357
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 1: To bars, Sam Malone, baby, Yeah, back in the day.

358
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 3: All right, speaking of back in the day, yes, So

359
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 3: do you remember MTV sports?

360
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 1: Of course? Okay, of course. So this is a true story.

361
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 3: In the early nineties when I was you know, with

362
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 3: six ninety we were launching this first all sports station

363
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 3: on the West Coast.

364
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 1: So this is like nineteen ninety.

365
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 2: I get a phone call from a friend of mine

366
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 2: and she is working for MTV. Now, during the eighties,

367
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 2: MTV was just videos. That's basically all they showed videos.

368
00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 2: They showed the video after video after video. We were

369
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 2: all for us in the eighties. We were all addicted

370
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 2: to their videos. But now they wanted to expand their programming.

371
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 2: They wanted to actually create shows. And she gives me

372
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 2: a call because she knows I'm a sportscaster and everything else,

373
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:15,119
Speaker 2: and she goes, I want to do like an.

374
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 3: MTV sports show. Now, this is only a few years

375
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 3: after I had left working for the Raiders organization, the

376
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,640
Speaker 3: LA Raiders back in the day. So I gave her

377
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:29,679
Speaker 3: a proposal for a show, and I said, here's something

378
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 3: I think would be interesting to people, and I actually

379
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,119
Speaker 3: believe some of these players would be gained to it.

380
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:39,160
Speaker 3: Pull back the curtain, take them out of their uniforms,

381
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 3: and show their actual life off the field. That was

382
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 3: the proposal I laid out to MTV and someone of power. Well,

383
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 3: as it turned out. They went in a different direction.

384
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 3: I want to, you know, offbeat sports, and you know

385
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 3: they did that direction with it. But I gave them

386
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 3: this idea, if you pull back the curtain and actually

387
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 3: see players, especially in football, because when you're in full gear,

388
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 3: we don't even know what these guys look like back

389
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,639
Speaker 3: in the day, right unless you had a football card,

390
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:14,680
Speaker 3: he can say, oh, this, that's what the guy looks like, right, exactly.

391
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 6: Know.

392
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 3: When I was a small kid, I'm not kidding you,

393
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 3: so nineteen, you know, I'm like seven years old, mid sixties.

394
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,200
Speaker 2: I get a football card of Jim Brown. I thought

395
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,719
Speaker 2: they were the Cleveland Browns because of Jim Brown. And

396
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:32,120
Speaker 2: then I get a Johnny Unitas card and the horseshoe,

397
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 2: the you. I thought that was for Johnny you Knights.

398
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 2: Oh wow, this is how I identify these legends with

399
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 2: our uniforms.

400
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 1: So here we are.

401
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 2: And that quarterback series I thought was tremendous. I watched

402
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 2: this with Patrick Mahomes and Kirk Cousins and Marcus Mariota.

403
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 3: I thought it was a perfect casting where you have.

404
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 2: The biggest star in the league and then you have

405
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 2: a guy that's sort of like right there in the middle,

406
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 2: and then you have another guy who never really achieved

407
00:18:57,640 --> 00:18:59,360
Speaker 2: the start and me, he's getting one more chance to

408
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 2: do it. Now, you say they have a new YES receiver,

409
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 2: So who's in this one?

410
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 1: This is our standard receiver? Has Davante Adams from the

411
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 1: Las Vegas Raiders. All right, my man, who wants some

412
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 1: of Deebo Samuel from the San Francisco forty nine ers, Yes,

413
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 1: along with his tight end IOWA guy George Kittle and

414
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: then Justin Jefferson probably the league's best pound for pounds receivers.

415
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 1: Amron Saint Brown, whose father was a multi time Mister Olympia,

416
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,880
Speaker 1: Mister Universe, has a brother that plays for the Bears.

417
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,120
Speaker 1: And it was light quarterback and you were.

418
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,919
Speaker 2: Talking surema Rock because we were doing his highlights at USC.

419
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't know. I covered him in high school.

420
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 1: In modern day.

421
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 2: I didn't know if we was going to be that

422
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 2: kind of player coming into the NFL.

423
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 1: But obviously I knew in high school. I saw him

424
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:45,959
Speaker 1: a modern day. So I was calling high school football

425
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 1: for when Bryce Young was there and DJ Young Galley

426
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 1: was a Saint John's Bosco and those schools. That's a

427
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 1: star cast. Oh absolutely. Halani love Chris Lawyer. There's a kid,

428
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:57,399
Speaker 1: Chris Hudson that's up at Oregon that plays the slot

429
00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,439
Speaker 1: that was over it there at that time too. But

430
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:01,479
Speaker 1: this thing, this thing's great, man, it does and it's

431
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 1: kind of like what you said, it's all set up.

432
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 1: Davante is the married guy with two kids. He's married,

433
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: got a big, beautiful house out there, two kids, kittles,

434
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:10,119

Speaker 2: house when he saw Yeah, yea, yeah he does.

437
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,679

00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,440
Speaker 1: that how that sponsorship came.

439
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 3: Before we go further, Brown fran, yes, Well, for yeah,

440
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 3: I was gonna say I'm in that same boat as VJ,

441
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:31,119
Speaker 3: because I definitely saw him at USC and I stumped constantly,

442
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 3: and when they drafted in for the Lions, that was.

443
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,120
Speaker 1: An interesting moment.

444
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 3: But I do have to point out another huge star

445
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,160

448
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,120

Speaker 2: Well, I mean glass now is down. I mean their

532
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:41,359

Speaker 1: Right now, so weak there you go.

543
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 8: It's you know, it's kind of like also similar to

544
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 8: right the NBA, creating a team sometimes doesn't work the

545
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,480
Speaker 8: way you think it's going to work, and so that's

546
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 8: that's what the Dodgers are right now going through. Obviously

547
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:23,160
Speaker 8: we start the whole half of the season, so we'll

548
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,080

554
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,119

Speaker 7: Carlos Alcaaz does it again. Defeats Novak Djokovic for.

556

Speaker 7: He's only twenty one guys, only a bat.

559
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 3: I mean, this is this is the future of tennis.

560
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 2: And it's good on the men's side because now they

561
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 2: do have a new star after feder and Nadal and Djokovic.

562
00:25:59,480 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 1: We need a start.

563
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 3: We got one and out for yeah, yeah, for sure.

Speaker 7: W Yeah, yeah, I agree with you VJ.

569
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:18,800

570
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,360
Speaker 8: as she was in the women miss permanently.

571
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:22,760

Speaker 8: player to score a receiving touchdown and return touchdown in

583
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,480

00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 8: twenty thirteen when the Ravens defeated forty nine Ers thirty

585

Speaker 2: His one hundred and eight yard kickoff return in night

00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 2: game is still the longest scoring play in the history

588
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 2: of the Super Bowl.

589
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 1: That's when they pulled the plug on the power to

590
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 1: slow them down because they were on the verge of

591
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,880
Speaker 1: blowing the Niners out of that they were blowing. We're

592
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 1: on the verge of blowing because that's the kick off

593
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 1: that starts the second half.

594
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,200
Speaker 2: You didn't see Jim Harbaugh pull the pull the plug

595
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 2: on his brother there to Beyon halftime.

596
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:21,879
Speaker 7: I mean, who else would you know?

597
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:26,879
Speaker 1: Take I remember that game close?

598
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,399
Speaker 2: Was that catch of Crabtree that would have won the

599
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 2: game from Kaepernick.

600
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,879
Speaker 1: To It was right there. It was right there. It

601
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 1: was right there. It was right there.

602
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 6: Man.

603
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,240
Speaker 2: I was rooting for the Ravens in that game. You

604
00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 2: know why I was rooting for the Ravens. I had

605
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 2: actually met Ray Luke. We had Ray Lewis in studio.

606
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:48,200
Speaker 2: I've said this many many times, Monce, Thank you very much, Jess.

607
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:54,679
Speaker 3: So when we talk about leader, by definition, a leader

608
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,200
Speaker 3: is someone that inspires others to follow.

609
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 2: That's the definition of a leader. In other words, you

610
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:08,200
Speaker 2: inspire others to follow, That makes you a leader. This

611
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,680
Speaker 2: is not something that can be manufactured, No it has

612
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 2: to be something about you. So I had ray Lewis

613
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,920
Speaker 2: in study, and he's a controversial figure to say the least.

614
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:19,199
Speaker 1: But you spend five minutes with.

615
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 3: Ray Lewis in person, you're following this guy.

616
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 2: I mean, he has such a power in his personality,

617
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,879
Speaker 2: in his convictions, in his commitment.

618
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,919
Speaker 3: To the game as he had back in the day. Uh.

619
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 2: And to see him go out on top, you know,

620
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 2: obviously I was also an Ed Reid fan. Who's the

621
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,560
Speaker 2: greatest safety in the history of the National Football League.

622
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 2: His numbers don't lie. I mean, when you look at

623
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:43,760

Speaker 2: the league has stepped in. The League has stepped in.

670
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,680
Speaker 2: They're gonna take charge of this La franchise that is

671
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:50,080
Speaker 2: failing to deliver a freebie. And that's what the Chargers

672
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,040
Speaker 2: have been handed a freebie by the league. They then

673
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 2: paid one penny in the relocation money. They didn't generate

674
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 2: one money, one penny toward the building of that stadium.

675
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 3: They have had a free ride and it is over.

676
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 1: Okay.

677
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 3: So when it came down to the hiring Harbor.

678
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 2: You remember, right at the end the actual day and

679
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 2: it was announced that Harba was hired.

680
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 1: You know, he had Don Yee as.

681
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:18,800
Speaker 2: His agent, the superagent, right, he had been given a

682
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:20,720
Speaker 2: lot of guarantees by the league about the kind of

683
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 2: deal that Jim harr was going to get.

684
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,719
Speaker 3: Well, the Chargers were beginning to hedge a little bit,

685
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 3: and Jim.

686
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,000
Speaker 2: Harbaugh literally had one door out, one foot out the

687
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 2: door until little phone.

688
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 3: Calls made allegedly to the league to straighten out the mess.

689
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 3: And it was straightened out immediately, which is why when

690
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 3: they had the introductory press conference introduced Jim Harbor as

691
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 3: the new coach of the Chargers, Dean Spanners looked like

692
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:49,360
Speaker 3: he was gonna throw up because that coach's salary.

693
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 1: Is coming out of his pocket.

694
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, he'll be all right, and well, he'll be all right,

695
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 3: but he wasn't feeling it because he didn't have that

696
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:57,040
Speaker 3: cash on hand.

697
00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 1: His values only on the value of having an NFL team.

698
00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 2: So I wish Jim Harbaugh all the best. I'm a

699
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,720
Speaker 2: big Jim Harbaugh fan. His record speaks for itself. But

00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,920
Speaker 2: anyone in the history of sports talk radio. I think

780
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:44,400
Speaker 2: there's any question about that. But as far as the

781
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 2: game plan is concerned, the game plan is simple. I'm

782
00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 2: gonna take you in a certain direction I trust, and

783
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 2: certainly someone like VJ I know I can trust that

784
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:55,800
Speaker 2: any direction I'm gonna go, He's gonna have plenty to

785
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,080
Speaker 2: say on that subject matter. I do want to get

786
00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 2: back to the show A receiver, all right, So again

787
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:05,400
Speaker 2: the idea of pulling back the curtain. This is the

788
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:09,400
Speaker 2: genius marketing that is never ending in the National Football League, right,

789
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:13,759
Speaker 2: I mean, you had you know, you've had behind the

790
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 2: scenes shows to open up the door to give you

791
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 2: a little you know, the Hard Knocks series, which isn't

792
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,320
Speaker 2: what it used to be. But when it first happened,

793
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 2: and they would take these obscure guys, they're gonna get

794
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,320
Speaker 2: cut ultimately, and we get to know them a little

795
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 2: bit and then they get you know, the cut and

796
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:30,719
Speaker 2: everything else. That was sort of a novelty at the time.

797
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 2: But I loved what I saw on that Quarterback show.

798
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 1: I love. I'm gonna obviously watch this Receiver show as well.

799
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:40,879
Speaker 3: But when you when you watch these guys, because when

800
00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:45,360
Speaker 3: you label professional athletes today, a lot of people immediately

801
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:50,200
Speaker 3: think about the money. Right, Well, gee, if I were

802
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:53,880
Speaker 3: making tens of millions of dollars, hundreds of millions of dollars,

803
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:56,360
Speaker 3: how easy my life would be. I wouldn't have a

804
00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:57,240
Speaker 3: worry in the world.

805
00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,800
Speaker 2: And when you pull back the curtain and you understand

806
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:02,960
Speaker 2: whether you're a family guy or a young single guy,

807
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:07,440
Speaker 2: you're going through the exact same process that everyone else is.

808
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:09,919
Speaker 2: Maybe you got a lot more money in the bank,

809
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:15,320
Speaker 2: but that doesn't change personalities or interaction with other people.

810
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:21,320
Speaker 2: And I think things have been valuable in essentially making

811
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 2: these zillionaire athletes a little more accessible to the average

812
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:26,520
Speaker 2: football fan.

813
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:29,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's what receiver did. Because what quarterback did

814
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,800
Speaker 1: is it made me appreciate Pat Mahomes more. Oh the

815
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:35,400
Speaker 1: workout I got her. Thank you. There you go. See God, Man,

816
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 1: we don't have to say it. It's just like telepathic.

817
00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:42,080
Speaker 1: I tell people, get rid of the stupid all that's

818
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:45,400
Speaker 1: luck narrative. No, it's not. The man literally stands on

819
00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,280
Speaker 1: the boozoo ball and leans to the left and pulls

820
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:50,080
Speaker 1: a cable from the right and has a weight in

821
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:52,680
Speaker 1: his arm in the in the left like he does

822
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 1: this stuff. It's not an action.

823
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:57,399
Speaker 3: They say, well, you know he's a freak he can throw.

824
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,440
Speaker 1: No, he's not a freak. He this this stuff he trains.

825
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:03,879
Speaker 1: And it made me, even though not a KC fan,

826
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 1: not a Mahomes guy, but I respect the living hell

827
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:10,320
Speaker 1: out of that man because the work he puts in

828
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,200
Speaker 1: to put his body in the product on the field,

829
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 1: football being my favorite sport, I respect that. I'm around

830
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 1: Saint Brown is the same type of deal Chris talked

831
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:20,880
Speaker 1: about his dad. The guy was bitching. He had him

832
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:23,760
Speaker 1: bitching before the kid can read. I mean, he's a freak.

833
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 1: He is a freak. Something else I took from this too.

834
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: Can we get rid of the narrative that you can't

835
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 1: hit and tackle in football anymore? Because these guys get

836
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,200
Speaker 1: banged up all year long. These guys taking his debo,

837
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:37,120
Speaker 1: had his deebo, had his classical cracked, Like, it's not

838
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 1: an easy sport to play. Guys, we're not flagged. I

839
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:41,800
Speaker 1: hate what? Oh what are we gonna do? Put flags on? No,

840
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,040
Speaker 1: you're not, because I'm watching this thing and you hear,

841
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:46,720
Speaker 1: especially when you hear the sounds, when you hear the boom,

842
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 1: you here the body's crash and it's like, wow, that

843
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 1: looked like a soft tackle when I watched it live,

844
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:54,040
Speaker 1: but hearing it and then hearing the guy lay on

845
00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,799
Speaker 1: the ground go and then it gets up. It goes

846
00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 1: back to the hud on the teams like you straight. Yeah, man,

847
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:01,920
Speaker 1: you you don't know that until, like you said, the

848
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:05,000
Speaker 1: curtain gets pulled back justin. Jefferson is the single guy,

849
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:07,879
Speaker 1: no girlfriend. It's all about him and his dad eats

850
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 1: a ton of candy. That's why he pulled his hamstring.

851
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 1: The kids stopping all can Lynch going outstad two shots

852
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,600
Speaker 1: of Hennessy before every game too is he told Peyton

853
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 1: Fanny but uh, And then you have a Deebo Samuel

854
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,680
Speaker 1: who has the the living girlfriend but has his little

855
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,719
Speaker 1: has his son. He I think I became more of

856
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:30,000
Speaker 1: a fan of Debo through this bro. He really is

857
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:34,160
Speaker 1: a level headed, grown man. He understands his role. His

858
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:36,279
Speaker 1: girlfriend was talking about when he had his son. She

859
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,160
Speaker 1: goes it changed him. It really it softened him. He's

860
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 1: it's not just football football football. He gives us time.

861
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 1: There's time he watches his film, you know, showing him

862
00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:46,200
Speaker 1: like watching film rewinding. Then and it's time he's with

863
00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 1: us with the TV's off and he's playing with the kid.

864
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 1: And it really does pull the curtain back. Like you said,

865
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:53,960
Speaker 1: money doesn't mean anything, guys, is we all got the

866
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,080
Speaker 1: same problems. We all got to put our pants on

867
00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:58,400
Speaker 1: one leg at a damn time. And just because you're

868
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 1: rich and you got a lot of money, like Biggie

869
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,479
Speaker 1: Small's once said, more money, more problems. The more money

870
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 1: you have, the more issues you have. So I employ

871
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,439
Speaker 1: you man, knock it out before the season starts. It's great.

872
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,240
Speaker 1: Quick sidebar Raiders need to move on from DeVante Adams.

873
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:14,960
Speaker 1: You're gonna see why when you watch this, they need

874
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 1: to move on from DeVante Adams. They need Devonte Adams. No,

875
00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:18,479
Speaker 1: they don't.

876
00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:21,080
Speaker 3: I mean I understand why he went there.

877
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,839
Speaker 2: Obviously you want to night with his boy Derek Carr

878
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,400
Speaker 2: from their fres Noo days. But watch it, and you

879
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:27,960
Speaker 2: watch it when we where do you how do you

880
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:29,280
Speaker 2: replace a Davonte Adams.

881
00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:31,080
Speaker 1: You need to start. You're starting over anywhere. You got

882
00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:32,759
Speaker 1: a new coach. You gotta do you let you let

883
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:33,440
Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs go.

884
00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:37,120
Speaker 3: If you're gonna strip the Raiders of their number one

885
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:37,799
Speaker 3: receiver for.

886
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,040
Speaker 1: What, there's seams out there that'll give you some point.

887
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,560
Speaker 1: Oh come on, well we'll see. I'll be gone by

888
00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:43,759
Speaker 1: the trading deadline. You guys heard it.

00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:43,960
Speaker 4: Here.

890
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 2: By the way, I have another twist on money and

Speaker 2: sports on the other side. This is Fox Sports Sunday.

Speaker 2: Rolling along here on another busy sports Sunday. Fox Sports Sunday.

00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:56,240
Speaker 2: We're broadcasting live from the tire rack dot Com studios.

Speaker 2: Tire rack dot Com the way tire buying should be

898
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,680
Speaker 2: by the way, Harbin and Husky is a show that

899
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:12,759
Speaker 2: continues on during the breaks. Well, I never stopped talking,

900
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:17,080
Speaker 2: and neither is. So neither of us stopped talking. He

901
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 2: just continue on with the rambling through. I mean he's

902
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,400
Speaker 2: extending his hand to try to make a bet with me. Okay,

903
00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:23,400
Speaker 2: you know what the bet was.

904
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:28,520
Speaker 3: So he is a believer that the LA Chargers, that

905
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:32,439
Speaker 3: Jim Harbaugh is going to instantly turn around a team

906
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:36,160
Speaker 3: that is now without their top receivers, without a running back.

907
00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:40,120
Speaker 2: They really have a young quarterback who, by the way,

908
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 2: is a five hundred quarterback in his young career. Herbert

909
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 2: is not the quarterback now that he was two years

910
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:47,400
Speaker 2: ago when he was voted at Pro Bowls starter.

911
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:51,800
Speaker 1: To me, the jury is still out. Montembo jump in

912
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:53,399
Speaker 1: on this jury is still out.

913
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:58,120
Speaker 2: If Herbert is that rare quarterback that can deliver in

914
00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:00,520
Speaker 2: the fourth quarter. I've been watching Herbert the last couple

915
00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 2: of years in the fourth quarter. He's been given opportunities

916
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:04,920
Speaker 2: to win games and he's not.

917
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:09,279
Speaker 8: So it's funny because yesterday, Steve, remember when we were

918
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 8: talking during the break that there's always a team that

919
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:14,080
Speaker 8: surprises every year in the NFL.

920
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:17,480
Speaker 7: I was going to tell you the Chargers is the

921
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,080
Speaker 7: team that I thought was going to.

922
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:23,279
Speaker 1: Surprise, said, really surprise. The whole world's jumping on the

923
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:24,759
Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh bandwagon.

924
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:25,279
Speaker 8: Well you're not.

925
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 1: I'm not.

926
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,080
Speaker 3: And I love Jim Harbor as a coach. I think

927
00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:33,440
Speaker 3: eventually he'll get this right, but not this year.

928
00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 7: I think it's going to be a quick, a quick turnaround.

929
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:39,440
Speaker 9: I agree with youj So justin Herbert isn't clutch, is

930
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:42,080
Speaker 9: what you're saying. No, so they were bringing a different

931
00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:44,400
Speaker 9: quarterback in in that Raiders game. They kept converting all

932
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:44,799
Speaker 9: the fourth and.

933
00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:47,719
Speaker 2: Okay, that was back long again. Take a look at

934
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:52,120
Speaker 2: the last two years. You want to you want to

935
00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:54,600
Speaker 2: talk about that playoff game against Jacksonville. How was that

936
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:55,319
Speaker 2: second half?

937
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:57,160
Speaker 9: Well, I mean, how much of that was him? And

938
00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:58,719
Speaker 9: how much of that was how much was him?

939
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:01,640
Speaker 2: That's what I always love about this is so you

940
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:05,400
Speaker 2: have a situation like Herbert just absolutely yacked it up

941
00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:07,960
Speaker 2: in that second half to allow Jacksonville to get back.

942
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:08,359
Speaker 1: In that game.

943
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:10,879
Speaker 3: And they're like, wow, it was a play calling, man.

944
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,680
Speaker 3: I mean, you can't you can't overcome the play calling.

945
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:17,239
Speaker 3: I think sometimes though quarterbacks we put too much on

946
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:19,719
Speaker 3: their plate. Like I remember watching I was at the

947
00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:23,600
Speaker 3: Lions Chargers game, and like again that that game was

948
00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:26,320
Speaker 3: primarily lost because the Chargers defense was bad. But also

949
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:28,719
Speaker 3: I think one of the reasons people are high on

950
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:32,520
Speaker 3: Jim Harbaugh going to the Chargers is that it is look, you,

951
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:35,360
Speaker 3: you can't just be a one dimensional offense. And I

952
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,799
Speaker 3: think taking some of that off Herbert's plate will allow

953
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:41,960
Speaker 3: him to be greater by doing more but needing to

954
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 3: do more on less plays too. Like, okay, but with

955
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:52,200
Speaker 3: who you have to have guys at the scale position?

956
00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:55,040
Speaker 2: Look at the forty nine ers, right, we talk about

957
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:57,880
Speaker 2: you know brock Party in this incredible rise island.

958
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:00,239
Speaker 3: Who has more weapons than he has with the forty

959
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:00,640
Speaker 3: nine ers?

960
00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:02,840
Speaker 1: Wait, anybody, but what weapons?

961
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:04,000
Speaker 9: Maybe the Eagles? I think?

962
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,279
Speaker 1: Okay, can I can I go now? Wow?

963
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:07,560
Speaker 4: Right?

964
00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:09,439
Speaker 1: Let everybody? Can I go now? So I can shut

965
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:12,440
Speaker 1: this all down? All right? So listen, I'm gonna go

966
00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:14,279
Speaker 1: buy history. I'm gonna go by what we've seen. I'm

967
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:17,000
Speaker 1: gonna go by see what's what's been done. University of

968
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:20,520
Speaker 1: San Diego, Stanford, the Niners, Michigan.

969
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:23,439
Speaker 3: Stop Michigan six years to be Ohio State.

970
00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:27,959
Speaker 1: That doesn't matter matter that. It doesn't matter. Yes, because

971
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,239
Speaker 1: you take a program for years that beat Ohio. See

972
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:32,120
Speaker 1: what I finish. You take a program that won five

973
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 1: games coming in, you give him ten wins the first

974
00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 1: three years in a row.

975
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:38,120
Speaker 3: That is turning a program around. Yes, first four years

976
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:39,320
Speaker 3: looks like Brady Hoak to me.

977
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,400
Speaker 1: Yes, it No, it didn't look like Brady Hok to

978
00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:45,560
Speaker 1: you because Brady Holk Brody Ohio State. Brady Hog won

979
00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:48,920
Speaker 1: one Bowl game early with Denar Robinson and the Sugar

980
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 1: Beam because Virginia Tech through the game.

981
00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:53,919
Speaker 3: Look at Jim Harbull's bull Reker his first five years.

982
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:56,239
Speaker 1: It doesn't I'm not care about his first five years.

983
00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:57,279
Speaker 1: Did he turn the program around?

984
00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:57,480
Speaker 6: Yes?

985
00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:59,560
Speaker 2: I know, well, and that's what I'm saying with the Chargers.

986
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,080
Speaker 2: Give him five years. But you're talking about some immediate

987
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:03,000
Speaker 2: turnaround exactly.

988
00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:09,040
Speaker 1: We're gonna see him have the safe stop that they

989
00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:12,239
Speaker 1: won five games last year. I said during the break,

990
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:14,120
Speaker 1: I give him eight or nine wins. That is that

991
00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 1: is turning you. That is turning a team around that

992
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:20,160
Speaker 1: one five you know where they win nine games? Absolutely,

993
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:21,840
Speaker 1: they can win nine games this year. You kidding me.

994
00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:23,840
Speaker 1: Let's go to Justin Herbert. I'm with you on that

995
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:26,720
Speaker 1: bow and I'm with Chris on that a lot of times. Look, Stanley,

996
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:29,279
Speaker 1: do the thing about trying to blame Justin Herbert for

997
00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:32,440
Speaker 1: that game is people want to Staley fired during that season.

998
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:34,279
Speaker 1: But now we get to this game where they got

999
00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:35,440
Speaker 1: this big leader and we're gonna throw it on the

1000
00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:39,480
Speaker 1: quarterback for the coach that everybody hates and should be fired. Okay,

1001
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 1: so let's start there. Don't tell me about receivers. Tell

1002
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:44,600
Speaker 1: me Jim Harbaugh's best receiver he's ever had in his

1003
00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:47,440
Speaker 1: coaching career. I'll give it to you. It's Michael Krabtree

1004
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:49,600
Speaker 1: with the forty nine ers. Tell me it's big time

1005
00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:52,120
Speaker 1: receiver out in Michigan. He doesn't need that. They're gonna

1006
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:53,719
Speaker 1: be more physical at the point. They have two of

1007
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:56,080
Speaker 1: the top tackles in football. They have a really good defense.

1008
00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:59,239
Speaker 1: I think you move on from both defense. Yeah, yes, yo,

1009
00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:03,319
Speaker 1: guys are healthy. I mean linebacker. Look, I mean everybody's hurt.

1010
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:07,360
Speaker 1: Bosos hurt, dur was hurt. They guys knocked out. Is

1011
00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:08,200
Speaker 1: yesterday's news.

1012
00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:08,880
Speaker 3: You know that.

1013
00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:10,799
Speaker 1: I know that. Just say they need to move over him.

1014
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:12,600
Speaker 1: After the season. They're gonna move on from him, but

1015
00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:14,480
Speaker 1: you gotta get some of the some of the rubbish

1016
00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:16,560
Speaker 1: out of there. They're gonna be more physical. I think,

1017
00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:19,719
Speaker 1: what Harbor would you do? Time? Yes, but they're not

1018
00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:22,279
Speaker 1: gonna be a nine win team, you know, like I

1019
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:24,399
Speaker 1: like eight or nine wins, just saying five wins again,

1020
00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:26,719
Speaker 1: there's no way they're winning five games. Okay, if they

1021
00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:29,840
Speaker 1: win five games, then that contract that justin Harper is

1022
00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:32,400
Speaker 1: ridiculous because it's for fifty five million dollars.

1023
00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:37,000
Speaker 2: Yesous if they win, but he's a five hundred quarterback,

1024
00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:40,839
Speaker 2: just like his predecessor, Philip Rivers. It's amazing about Philip Rivers,

1025
00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:43,840
Speaker 2: and I on a personal level, I loved Philip Rivers.

1026
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:47,160
Speaker 2: He was the Gollie g father of ten Now ten kids.

1027
00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:49,480
Speaker 2: Imagine ten kids that just absolutely bind.

1028
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:52,520
Speaker 1: But let's let's thread this needle.

1029
00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:54,359
Speaker 3: I I don't know what they're gonna do on wins,

1030
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:56,320
Speaker 3: just because and I think this is going to be

1031
00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:59,400
Speaker 3: a growing pains year for them, because they have had.

1032
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:01,360
Speaker 1: A lot of spots across across the rust of the

1033
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:01,960
Speaker 1: need to patch up.

1034
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:04,160
Speaker 3: But I think there will be a game that will

1035
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:06,080
Speaker 3: go against what Steve is saying that there will be

1036
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:08,160
Speaker 3: a game where we can point to and say Justin

1037
00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:09,319
Speaker 3: Herbert won that game.

1038
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:12,560
Speaker 9: For the Los Angeles Chargers, they they play, they have

1039
00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:16,440
Speaker 9: a pretty tough schedule. I think the AFC is stat

1040
00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:18,240
Speaker 9: they have. They have a road game at the Panthers

1041
00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:20,080
Speaker 9: in week two. I think they probably win that one.

1042
00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:22,320
Speaker 9: And they have a road game at the Cardinals in

1043
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:24,520
Speaker 9: the middle of October. They probably win that one. Everything

1044
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:27,080
Speaker 9: else is like divisional or at the Steelers. Y.

1045
00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:27,960
Speaker 1: I got news for you.

1046
00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:30,320
Speaker 2: There's gonna be growing pains. This this is this is

1047
00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:33,520
Speaker 2: a process. This is the Charger organization. This is an

1048
00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:38,640
Speaker 2: organization that only wins by accident, it's never by game plan.

1049
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,640
Speaker 2: That's why the hiring of Jim Harborow is orchestrated by

1050
00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:44,360
Speaker 2: the league to try to get this right. Because the

1051
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:47,840
Speaker 2: Chargers register a zero in the city of Los Angeles

1052
00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:50,560
Speaker 2: and the league is trying to move their entire operation

1053
00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:53,879
Speaker 2: to LA. They got Sofi Stadium, they got everything going,

1054
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,439
Speaker 2: except they have a team that literally registers a zero

1055
00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:00,640
Speaker 2: in the market. You gotta change the coach. Great hire,

1056
00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:04,520
Speaker 2: it's gonna it's going to be a process. Well, Jim

1057
00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:07,120
Speaker 2: harb I don't think will be successful. I don't think

1058
00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:10,399
Speaker 2: that losses or no change what the Chargers are in LA.

1059
00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:12,640
Speaker 2: That is a you moved the wrong team to l

1060
00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:15,480
Speaker 2: A problem. Well that was that was part of the deal.

1061
00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:17,799
Speaker 1: Should have been the Raiders and Rams should have been

1062
00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:19,840
Speaker 1: here and Chargers should have stayed in San Diego on

1063
00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:21,960
Speaker 1: that point of but I'm just gonna I'm still gonna

1064
00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:23,879
Speaker 1: talk this. I'm still gonna stand.

1065
00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:26,359
Speaker 2: Kronkey basically threaten to sue the league unless he gave

1066
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,960
Speaker 2: him l A and that Jerry Judge, Jerry Judges reminded

1067
00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:32,320
Speaker 2: all the owners about the money that was behind Kronkey.

1068
00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:35,160
Speaker 2: His wife is part of the Wholton fortune, and so

1069
00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:36,680
Speaker 2: he said, let's not mess with this guy.

1070
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:37,279
Speaker 1: Give it to him.

1071
00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:39,440
Speaker 9: Steve, you're not a big lad McConkey guy.

1072
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:46,520
Speaker 3: Maybe he'll be a superstar, maybe big Who could I

1073
00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:49,840
Speaker 3: said last year I said the Rams would be the worst.

1074
00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:52,040
Speaker 3: I was right on that list, the worst team in

1075
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:52,640
Speaker 3: the NFL.

1076
00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:55,000
Speaker 2: That was after a conversation I actually had with a

1077
00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:57,120
Speaker 2: Ram player that said the problem with our team we

1078
00:48:57,239 --> 00:48:57,919
Speaker 2: have no depth.

1079
00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:00,719
Speaker 1: Hiram Williams, are you kidding me? But what happened here?

1080
00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:04,719
Speaker 1: He's a Pro Bowl running back? What happened here?

1081
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:05,359
Speaker 3: In Pro Bowl.

1082
00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:08,000
Speaker 9: I think the Chargers overall have the best one to

1083
00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:10,440
Speaker 9: two round pick of any team in the draft. To

1084
00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:12,640
Speaker 9: be honest with you, I love the Joe All pick.

1085
00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:16,400
Speaker 9: Lad McConkie is a better takeaway than I don't know what.

1086
00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:19,640
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know about, but I do know Le.

1087
00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:22,840
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, and I'm with you with Slater. Slater,

1088
00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:25,560
Speaker 1: I mean, you've got bookend tackles for the next decades.

1089
00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:28,080
Speaker 1: They're more physical. One thing Harball does do you guys

1090
00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:30,560
Speaker 1: can't deny once again. Put the tape on. They're more

1091
00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:33,359
Speaker 1: physical the minute he's they're more physical, and they're more

1092
00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:36,800
Speaker 1: fundamental the minute he takes the job. It's it's it's in.

1093
00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:39,680
Speaker 1: It's in the proof of what he's done. Guys. We

1094
00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:42,640
Speaker 1: can all throw out certain games and certain teams. That's

1095
00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:46,080
Speaker 1: not what I'm saying. I'm telling you the turnaround starts immediately,

1096
00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:48,960
Speaker 1: because that's how football is won. Football is won in

1097
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:51,160
Speaker 1: one or two places. On the offensive line, in the

1098
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:54,719
Speaker 1: defensive line. He never fails there. He's never failed there,

1099
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:57,400
Speaker 1: no matter where he's been. And he's got two book

1100
00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:00,440
Speaker 1: and tackles to run the football. Throw it tight ends.

1101
00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:02,400
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear about names and receivers. Tell me,

1102
00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:05,279
Speaker 1: once again, tell me his receivers over his coaching career.

1103
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:09,440
Speaker 1: Somebody remind me of average guys, and you get a quarterback, Joe.

1104
00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:12,200
Speaker 1: Once again, if Justin, If this is not supposed to

1105
00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:14,640
Speaker 1: be a quick turnaround, and you're telling me Justin Herbert's

1106
00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:15,360
Speaker 1: not the guy.

1107
00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:18,399
Speaker 9: I think there's something to the idea of lessons more

1108
00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:20,160
Speaker 9: with Justin Herbert, because you're.

1109
00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:22,600
Speaker 1: They're gonna slow it down. Well, he's definitely got less

1110
00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:25,920
Speaker 1: so they're gonna slow it down. Bro, they're gonna dance. No,

1111
00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:28,080
Speaker 1: there you go. I said it a few I think

1112
00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:29,879
Speaker 1: you might have been doing the show a producer show

1113
00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:31,560
Speaker 1: with Martin not where I brought that up. I said, look,

1114
00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:34,000
Speaker 1: they're not gonna get they're not gonna win track meets.

1115
00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:36,759
Speaker 1: So they're not winning thirty eight, thirty six. We know that,

1116
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:39,960
Speaker 1: but that's not what hardball teams do. They pound you,

1117
00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:42,200
Speaker 1: they beat you up, they get physical with you. They're

1118
00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:44,720
Speaker 1: gonna be a stronger team. He brought the strengthen conditioning

1119
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:47,080
Speaker 1: guy from Michigan down Ware. They talked about how they

1120
00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:50,000
Speaker 1: rearranged the weight room so that as you're even racking

1121
00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:52,640
Speaker 1: the weights back. It is a way to work the

1122
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:56,000
Speaker 1: bi These are things guys in football that matter on

1123
00:50:56,239 --> 00:50:56,720
Speaker 1: the field.

1124
00:50:56,960 --> 00:51:00,720
Speaker 3: And it's not a joke that it's happened and everywhere

1125
00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:04,040
Speaker 3: he's been. Yeah, it's like I was saying earlier. Sometimes

1126
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:06,800
Speaker 3: when you have a competent run game and a physical

1127
00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:08,719
Speaker 3: game to go with it, it makes the.

1128
00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 1: Quarterback better Again. And like I look at Jared Goff,

1129
00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:12,280
Speaker 1: I look at Detroit.

1130
00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:14,440
Speaker 3: I look at what they had to do like that

1131
00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:17,400
Speaker 3: first year, the football and rough, but yes, once they

1132
00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:19,880
Speaker 3: got a ground game going, Look what Jared Goff can

1133
00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:21,520
Speaker 3: do when he's got a play action working for him.

1134
00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:23,839
Speaker 3: Look what happens when you have a rounded offense rather

1135
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:25,920
Speaker 3: than just go asking a guy go out there.

1136
00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:27,440
Speaker 1: To go out there and just win it. For this

1137
00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:30,120
Speaker 1: is the eighties. This is a I'm a Dolphin fan,

1138
00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:33,440
Speaker 1: lifelong Dolphin fan, nineteen eighty three. I grew up as

1139
00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:36,840
Speaker 1: a kid watching a coach ask a quarterback to go

1140
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:39,200
Speaker 1: win it for me. How did that work out for Miami?

1141
00:51:39,320 --> 00:51:42,880
Speaker 1: Tom Brady needed a run game. They're gonna be more

1142
00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:43,640
Speaker 1: physical guys.

1143
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:47,080
Speaker 2: I just love the fact. And again this is coming

1144
00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:50,200
Speaker 2: from a Jim Harbaugh fan. Howeveryone ignores his first six

1145
00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:54,000
Speaker 2: years in Michigan. I'm not ignoring bull win, four ball losses,

1146
00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:59,200
Speaker 2: zero wins against Ohio State. Urban Meyer did a beatdown

1147
00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:02,239
Speaker 2: on him on an annual then Ryan Day continued to

1148
00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:04,840
Speaker 2: beat him down two great years down the stretch.

1149
00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:07,359
Speaker 1: That's what we had where and how do you how

1150
00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:07,759
Speaker 1: do you leave?

1151
00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:10,480
Speaker 2: He left on top, which is a very smart move

1152
00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:13,919
Speaker 2: by but the ideas Again, he did not do any

1153
00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:15,960
Speaker 2: immediate turnaround.

1154
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:19,520
Speaker 1: The straight conference championships in the Big Ten first time done,

1155
00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:22,359
Speaker 1: not by Woody Hayes, not by bo. It took him.

1156
00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:24,239
Speaker 3: It took him seven years to get to the top

1157
00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:24,920
Speaker 3: of the Big Ten.

1158
00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:27,799
Speaker 1: So you're telling us so going from going from four

1159
00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:29,800
Speaker 1: wins to ten wins in one years not a turnaround.

1160
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:31,560
Speaker 1: I'm just asking, I just want to know where your

1161
00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:32,480
Speaker 1: mythology is with this.

1162
00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:36,640
Speaker 3: Again, he was not The idea Michigan is to beat

1163
00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:40,320
Speaker 3: Ohio State and vice versa. Okay, that's not the Remember

1164
00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:42,160
Speaker 3: what Jim Trestl was, Remember what that?

1165
00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:45,399
Speaker 2: But that is what the what what Michigan fans want

1166
00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:48,160
Speaker 2: in an immediate turnaround, beat Ohio State.

1167
00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:50,160
Speaker 1: Okay, but we're not worried about what the fans want.

1168
00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:52,520
Speaker 1: We want, we want what's real and what's on the table?

1169
00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:54,799
Speaker 1: When you go from four to ten wins three years

1170
00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:57,640
Speaker 1: in a row, is it not turning a program around

1171
00:52:57,719 --> 00:52:59,840
Speaker 1: even though you can't beat the rival? Did you not

1172
00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:01,319
Speaker 1: turned the program around him?

1173
00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:04,080
Speaker 3: Because you didn't get to you were third place in

1174
00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:04,520
Speaker 3: the East.

1175
00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:07,200
Speaker 1: All the Chargers win ten games, but they don't beat

1176
00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:09,879
Speaker 1: the Chiefs. It's not a turnaround the expectations.

1177
00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:13,280
Speaker 2: So the Chargers are very minimal, one of the worst

1178
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:15,080
Speaker 2: organizations in all the NFL.

1179
00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:19,279
Speaker 1: They ever get to Harbor? Did Harbor get to a show?

1180
00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:21,560
Speaker 1: I'm asking you due the Chargers ever get.

1181
00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:24,800
Speaker 3: Super Bowl with Harball? I believe it, Jim Harbor. But

1182
00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:26,200
Speaker 3: it's gonna take South.

1183
00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:30,399
Speaker 1: Not a year one, not year one? E Moore wins

1184
00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:32,799
Speaker 1: for the Chargers, guys, no chance, no chance.

1185
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:36,000
Speaker 2: Anyone want to bet that the Chargers win nine plus

1186
00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:37,560
Speaker 2: games they have a winning record next year?

1187
00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:39,279
Speaker 1: No, I got eight or more. I'm not not not

1188
00:53:39,480 --> 00:53:41,560
Speaker 1: not plus nine. I said eight or more wins. Now

1189
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:44,000
Speaker 1: now we're down eight? Yeah, said eight or nine wins? Okay,

1190
00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:45,960
Speaker 1: you know what, fun I'll stay at nine nine. That's

1191
00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:48,439
Speaker 1: a winning record. Nine and eight, nine or more wins

1192
00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:49,040
Speaker 1: for the Chargers.

1193
00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:51,200
Speaker 3: Anybody buying the Chargers at nine and eight next.

1194
00:53:51,160 --> 00:53:52,920
Speaker 1: Year, anybody wants to do a two leader bet or

1195
00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:56,120
Speaker 1: a wing bet, I'm here two leader. I like sugar

1196
00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:57,960
Speaker 1: free ginger, lease it.

1197
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:01,120
Speaker 2: And again I think give Harbor time Canada driver seats,

1198
00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:03,160
Speaker 2: stay out of the way and it will figure this out.

1199
00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:05,320
Speaker 1: But not in your one. I will continue on. You're

1200
00:54:05,320 --> 00:54:07,680
Speaker 1: gonna hear, You're gonna hear, Steve, and I don't want

1201
00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:09,560
Speaker 1: to know hard feelings down the road. We're friends, man,

1202
00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:11,920
Speaker 1: We're Corley's I love you, brother. You're gonna hear this

1203
00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:15,040
Speaker 1: so much from me, Bro, I'm telling you right now.

1204
00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:16,200
Speaker 1: All right, Well, I'll tell you what.

1205
00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:18,800
Speaker 2: On the other side, I want to every year we

1206
00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:20,240
Speaker 2: have a team like the Houston Texans.

1207
00:54:20,280 --> 00:54:22,120
Speaker 1: We're a year all right, got you? All right?

1208
00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:25,160
Speaker 3: You on the other side, give me that team that

1209
00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:27,040
Speaker 3: is on nobody's radar.

1210
00:54:27,239 --> 00:54:27,880
Speaker 1: And believe me, the.

1211
00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:30,319
Speaker 3: Chargers are on people's radar because they have Jim Harbaugh. Okay,

1212
00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:34,160
Speaker 3: give me a team that is on zero radars that

1213
00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:36,759
Speaker 3: you tell me is gonna have the biggest leap year

1214
00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:39,560
Speaker 3: to year in terms of wins from twenty twenty three

1215
00:54:39,600 --> 00:54:41,960
Speaker 3: to twenty twenty got all right, We'll have that on

1216
00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:42,560
Speaker 3: their side.

1217
00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:47,040
Speaker 2: This is Fox Sports Sunday, Harvin Husky, Yes, Sir Fock

1218
00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:50,759
Speaker 2: Sports Sunday. Once again, we are live from the tai

1219
00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:54,000
Speaker 2: Iraq dot Com studios. I get anything's revved up here

1220
00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:56,640
Speaker 2: on this Sunday as always all right, So before we

1221
00:54:56,760 --> 00:55:02,320
Speaker 2: went to break because every single year, Actually it's interesting

1222
00:55:02,400 --> 00:55:04,279
Speaker 2: how this works. As I was doing a little back

1223
00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:08,040
Speaker 2: research on this, it really comes down to almost every

1224
00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:13,840
Speaker 2: single year, based on preseason expectations, there are five or

1225
00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:19,160
Speaker 2: six teams each year that do way better than we expect. Yeah,

1226
00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:21,759
Speaker 2: and there are five or six teams every year that

1227
00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:26,359
Speaker 2: conversely do way worse than we expected. I mean last year,

1228
00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:29,840
Speaker 2: the two teams that really stood out were obviously the Texans.

1229
00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:33,000
Speaker 2: I mean, if you would just say, would you bet

1230
00:55:34,080 --> 00:55:37,640
Speaker 2: every penny you have that the Texans are going to

1231
00:55:37,719 --> 00:55:42,000
Speaker 2: be a playoff team before that season with a rookie quarterback,

1232
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:47,680
Speaker 2: a rookie coach, anonymous skill guys like, no chance, no way,

1233
00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:50,839
Speaker 2: no how. The Rams were pretty close. The Rams are

1234
00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:53,279
Speaker 2: coming off an awful year. It looked like they were

1235
00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:56,360
Speaker 2: just winding things up. They had sold the future in

1236
00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:59,360
Speaker 2: terms of any kind of depth or anything else to

1237
00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:01,800
Speaker 2: win that souper, which they were successful in doing so.

1238
00:56:02,160 --> 00:56:06,520
Speaker 2: Now they had to pay. Yeah, and yet Kyram Williams,

1239
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:09,360
Speaker 2: you know Pooka to go on what happens. So every

1240
00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:12,560
Speaker 2: single year, you're gonna get a number of teams. But

1241
00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:15,440
Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask you for a team. And I'm looking

1242
00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:19,920
Speaker 2: for a team that nobody is talking about right now.

1243
00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:23,600
Speaker 2: I'm out talking about winning a super Bowl, but making

1244
00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:28,319
Speaker 2: the playoffs. Yes, making the playoffs. Give me a team

1245
00:56:28,440 --> 00:56:30,680
Speaker 2: right now that no one is picking to make the

1246
00:56:30,680 --> 00:56:33,239
Speaker 2: playoffs in twenty twenty four that you think would like

1247
00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:33,800
Speaker 2: the playoffs.

1248
00:56:34,040 --> 00:56:36,960
Speaker 1: Hey, Perfet, you got your Arizon Baby, you're listening right now.

1249
00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:39,920
Speaker 1: This is for you. This is for you, Minnesota Vikings.

1250
00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:42,919
Speaker 1: I like the Minnesota Vikers to have a big, big

1251
00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:46,480
Speaker 1: bounce back year. Detroit has still to class of this division.

1252
00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:49,680
Speaker 1: Chris Detroit, Detroit. Hey, you got me last year, brother,

1253
00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:50,360
Speaker 1: salute to you.

1254
00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:50,840
Speaker 3: You know me.

1255
00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:52,800
Speaker 1: I take my L's, I'll take my WS two. I

1256
00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:55,080
Speaker 1: take my Victory Labs two. You got me last year

1257
00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:57,640
Speaker 1: you called Detroit to win the division. You got a brother,

1258
00:56:58,160 --> 00:56:59,680
Speaker 1: and I think you guys win the division this year.

1259
00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:01,640
Speaker 1: I love I love that team, but I think the

1260
00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:04,000
Speaker 1: Vikings have a big bounce back this year. They lost

1261
00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:07,520
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins and they lost Justin Jefferson. They lost their

1262
00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:10,719
Speaker 1: two most important players last year. Right when they were

1263
00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:12,799
Speaker 1: hitting their stride, they got added the gate a little slow,

1264
00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:16,520
Speaker 1: but right when they were hitting their stride, the hamstring comes.

1265
00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:19,280
Speaker 1: He goes on I R and then right after that

1266
00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:24,560
Speaker 1: the achilles blows. And in the documentary, the doctor said,

1267
00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:27,000
Speaker 1: as soon as he touched down on the ankle of Kirk,

1268
00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:29,080
Speaker 1: he looked up and tod him, is your achilles? You're

1269
00:57:29,120 --> 00:57:31,080
Speaker 1: done for the year, Like right then and there before

1270
00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:32,880
Speaker 1: they get to the locker room. Ain't a right none, No,

1271
00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:34,600
Speaker 1: his achilles is gone. Yeah, he's done for the year.

1272
00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:38,080
Speaker 1: That they played four quarterbacks last year, and I think

1273
00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:40,000
Speaker 1: that you bringing Aaron Jones who's got a chip on

1274
00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:42,360
Speaker 1: his shoulder and still got some juice running the ball

1275
00:57:42,480 --> 00:57:45,640
Speaker 1: left in the tank. I love the receiver Corps and Osbourne.

1276
00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:48,360
Speaker 1: Jordan Addison won the Blitt the Call Award for Pitt

1277
00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:52,040
Speaker 1: before he went to USC. The kids legit Justin Jefferson.

1278
00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:54,640
Speaker 1: People think are the is the best receiver football. TJ.

1279
00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:57,280
Speaker 1: Hackinson is a top five ride receiver. By the way,

1280
00:57:57,520 --> 00:58:00,880
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson is the best wide receiver in football. It's

1281
00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:02,680
Speaker 1: a coin flip for me either giving either him or

1282
00:58:02,720 --> 00:58:04,920
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill, because Tyreek Hill can blow the top.

1283
00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:07,320
Speaker 3: Tyrie Hill is a different type of receiver than Jefferson's

1284
00:58:07,320 --> 00:58:08,320
Speaker 3: still a receiver, though.

1285
00:58:08,520 --> 00:58:09,920
Speaker 1: Like I said, it's a coin flip. You could if

1286
00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:11,800
Speaker 1: you want justin Jefferson, you want time, you want you

1287
00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:16,520
Speaker 1: want Cheetah either or uh Floreses. On defense, win blitz

1288
00:58:16,640 --> 00:58:19,480
Speaker 1: win percentage rate number one in the league the last

1289
00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:22,640
Speaker 1: twenty four months. They get to the quarterback in Minnesota

1290
00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:24,120
Speaker 1: and they've been doing a damn good job. He may

1291
00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:25,840
Speaker 1: not be a good head coach and he'll get an

1292
00:58:25,880 --> 00:58:27,600
Speaker 1: opportunity later in his career, but the one thing he

1293
00:58:27,640 --> 00:58:30,400
Speaker 1: can do is coordinated damn defense. Last year, that defense

1294
00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:32,760
Speaker 1: kept him in a lot of football games. Last year,

1295
00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:35,080
Speaker 1: they just didn't have the offensive pieces. And I think

1296
00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:37,640
Speaker 1: you plug in a rookie quarterback like JJ McCarthy, who's

1297
00:58:37,680 --> 00:58:39,120
Speaker 1: been shown do you get it to your tight end,

1298
00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:40,680
Speaker 1: you hand the ball, you throw it in the flats,

1299
00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:43,439
Speaker 1: and you have all these weapons that you've never seen

1300
00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:45,360
Speaker 1: before to be able to get the ball to his

1301
00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:48,080
Speaker 1: best receiver. Michigan was Roman Wilson. It's the best guy

1302
00:58:48,120 --> 00:58:48,880
Speaker 1: he had to throw the ball to.

1303
00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:49,160
Speaker 6: No.

1304
00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:51,960
Speaker 1: I got Justin Jefferson, I got kJ Osborne, I got

1305
00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:54,880
Speaker 1: Jordan Addison, I got TJ. Hockinson. And you're giving me

1306
00:58:54,960 --> 00:58:56,720
Speaker 1: a running back that's probably got a big chip on

1307
00:58:56,800 --> 00:58:59,560
Speaker 1: the shoulder. This feels like a Ladanian Thomlinson year his

1308
00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:02,320
Speaker 1: first with the Jets once saf So what's the Chargers like?

1309
00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:04,720
Speaker 1: You're a little old. He still had almost ran four

1310
00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:06,480
Speaker 1: thousand that year, and that's all they need out of

1311
00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:08,800
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones about eight hundred nine hundred yards because you

1312
00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:10,640
Speaker 1: got other running backs and other backs that can do

1313
00:59:10,760 --> 00:59:14,000
Speaker 1: some different things. I still think the lines are the

1314
00:59:14,080 --> 00:59:16,680
Speaker 1: class of this division. But I think the Bears are

1315
00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:19,360
Speaker 1: severely overrated. They still have a ricky quarterback. I have

1316
00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:20,400
Speaker 1: my question the way.

1317
00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:22,680
Speaker 3: Did you see that Eberflush is the favorite to be.

1318
00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:27,760
Speaker 1: The coach of the how? I'm with you, how, But

1319
00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:31,560
Speaker 1: I think Caleb I break down quarterback man. There's a

1320
00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:35,560
Speaker 1: lot of holes in his game. He makes the Mahomes comparisons,

1321
00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:38,120
Speaker 1: creates this narrative that that's what we look for, but

1322
00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:42,200
Speaker 1: basic quarterback fundamentals. His feet are normally all over the

1323
00:59:42,280 --> 00:59:44,520
Speaker 1: place and he holds the ball. I don't know if

1324
00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:46,720
Speaker 1: that's hero ball just to make a play, but a

1325
00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:48,280
Speaker 1: lot of times he holds the ball misses a lot

1326
00:59:48,280 --> 00:59:49,920
Speaker 1: of open guys. I think the Bears still have some

1327
00:59:50,040 --> 00:59:52,640
Speaker 1: issues there, and I like the Packers. I think this

1328
00:59:52,800 --> 00:59:56,200
Speaker 1: division could possibly get three teams in because I don't

1329
00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:59,400
Speaker 1: feel so strong about the other NFC divisions, especially the

1330
00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:01,800
Speaker 1: NC only get one team in. You can win that

1331
01:00:01,920 --> 01:00:04,640
Speaker 1: division at eight and nine. You can win that division

1332
01:00:04,680 --> 01:00:06,440
Speaker 1: this year at eight or nine or nine and eight.

1333
01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:09,960
Speaker 1: They only get one team in the NFC East, I

1334
01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:12,080
Speaker 1: think the Eagles. They don't have a repeat. They don't

1335
01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:14,680
Speaker 1: have a repeat champion in that division for at twenty

1336
01:00:14,720 --> 01:00:17,120
Speaker 1: something years, so it won't be the Cowboys winning it

1337
01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:19,240
Speaker 1: this year. The Cowboys just feel like the team that

1338
01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:21,720
Speaker 1: can just fall off the map. The Giants are bad,

1339
01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:25,040
Speaker 1: the Commanders are bad. That division could get one team in.

1340
01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:27,360
Speaker 1: I think the West gets two teams in. I think

1341
01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:30,760
Speaker 1: the NFC South North, excuse me, can get three teams in.

1342
01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:32,479
Speaker 1: The Vikings I think can get the ten or eleven

1343
01:00:32,520 --> 01:00:33,440
Speaker 1: wins to get to the playoffs.

1344
01:00:34,520 --> 01:00:36,800
Speaker 2: I like your raising on that. I'm not against the Vikings.

1345
01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:39,440
Speaker 2: I think that they can get it done again. They

1346
01:00:39,640 --> 01:00:41,040
Speaker 2: have some weapons there.

1347
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:41,560
Speaker 1: Plenty of them.

1348
01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:44,640
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get started on my prediction because mine is

1349
01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:47,439
Speaker 2: so out of left field, but I'm gonna explain why

1350
01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:52,480
Speaker 2: what we call addition through subtraction. Uh oh, So you

1351
01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:56,000
Speaker 2: remember a couple of years ago the Seattle Seahawks have

1352
01:00:56,040 --> 01:00:59,840
Speaker 2: a farewell to Russell Wilson and a lot of people

1353
01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:04,480
Speaker 2: we're predicting, including yours truly, that the Seahawks were definitely

1354
01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:07,520
Speaker 2: trying to basically gut the team to get the number

1355
01:01:07,560 --> 01:01:08,360
Speaker 2: one pick in the draft.

1356
01:01:08,600 --> 01:01:11,160
Speaker 1: Oh wow, So you get Drew Locke, who.

1357
01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:15,280
Speaker 2: Everyone knows sucks, and then they signed Geno Smith, who

1358
01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:17,480
Speaker 2: at that time I didn't even know Geno Smith was

1359
01:01:17,520 --> 01:01:19,080
Speaker 2: still in the league, to be honest here wow.

1360
01:01:19,560 --> 01:01:19,760
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1361
01:01:19,840 --> 01:01:21,960
Speaker 2: By the way, quick side note on Geno Smith. This

1362
01:01:22,040 --> 01:01:25,280
Speaker 2: is a true story. So I'm in New Orleans covering

1363
01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:27,240
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl the year that Geno Smith is coming

1364
01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:29,800
Speaker 2: out in the draft. Pat O'Brian and I are out

1365
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:33,240
Speaker 2: there and they tell us that Geno Smith is around.

1366
01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:35,640
Speaker 2: We could do an interview, but Pat was doing another interview,

1367
01:01:35,720 --> 01:01:37,600
Speaker 2: so I said, don't worry, I'll do a one on one.

1368
01:01:37,640 --> 01:01:39,360
Speaker 1: I was going to tape this with Geno Smith.

1369
01:01:39,480 --> 01:01:41,840
Speaker 2: Right, And if you remember Geno Smith last year at

1370
01:01:41,840 --> 01:01:43,960
Speaker 2: West Virginia, he got a lot of hype early in

1371
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:47,600
Speaker 2: the year, absolutely right. You know, basically he was throwing

1372
01:01:47,640 --> 01:01:50,080
Speaker 2: bubble screens to Austin what's his name over there and

1373
01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:53,560
Speaker 2: Tavon Austin, So he was throwing the little bubble screens

1374
01:01:53,600 --> 01:01:56,080
Speaker 2: and then Tavon Austin would run seventy yards for a touchdown.

1375
01:01:56,680 --> 01:02:02,240
Speaker 3: So I'm sitting down with Geno Smith and my first question.

1376
01:02:02,440 --> 01:02:04,240
Speaker 3: We're taping. This is not a live we're taping this.

1377
01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:07,840
Speaker 2: I said, so, Gina, where do you expect to hear

1378
01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:10,760
Speaker 2: your name in the draft? And he just gives me

1379
01:02:10,880 --> 01:02:15,920
Speaker 2: this look and I'm like, oh, so you have an idea.

1380
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:20,080
Speaker 1: And he looks at me straight faced and he goes,

1381
01:02:24,560 --> 01:02:26,760
Speaker 1: are you like the only one that doesn't know that

1382
01:02:26,920 --> 01:02:29,600
Speaker 1: I'm the first pick in the draft? Oh? Wow, are

1383
01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:30,120
Speaker 1: you serious?

1384
01:02:30,440 --> 01:02:30,720
Speaker 4: Oh no?

1385
01:02:31,120 --> 01:02:34,440
Speaker 3: He was straight face, and I'm like, like it was commonplace,

1386
01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:37,600
Speaker 3: like like he was Caleb Williams, He's Andrew like he's

1387
01:02:37,640 --> 01:02:39,760
Speaker 3: going to be there. He like, you, are you the

1388
01:02:39,920 --> 01:02:43,960
Speaker 3: only person that doesn't know already that I'm the first

1389
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:46,000
Speaker 3: pick in the draft. So then I looked at him

1390
01:02:46,080 --> 01:02:47,760
Speaker 3: like I didn't know if he was half in jest,

1391
01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:50,960
Speaker 3: but he was straight face, and I'm like, so you've

1392
01:02:50,960 --> 01:02:51,520
Speaker 3: been told that?

1393
01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:57,360
Speaker 1: And he goes he looks at me like are you

1394
01:02:57,480 --> 01:02:59,560
Speaker 1: insulting me? How dare you? How dare you?

1395
01:02:59,760 --> 01:02:59,800
Speaker 6: Like?

1396
01:03:00,160 --> 01:03:03,080
Speaker 1: Dare you? Heartness? And so I'm the hell you think

1397
01:03:03,240 --> 01:03:03,520
Speaker 1: you are?

1398
01:03:03,720 --> 01:03:06,800
Speaker 3: This is basically so I had to play along with it,

1399
01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:10,000
Speaker 3: like I'm like, so, Gino, okay, so your people have

1400
01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:11,680
Speaker 3: told you you're going to be the first pick.

1401
01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:12,120
Speaker 1: In the draft.

1402
01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:14,280
Speaker 2: So we're talking about it like he's going to be

1403
01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:17,720
Speaker 2: the first pick in the draft. Yeah, so obviously he wasn't.

1404
01:03:17,920 --> 01:03:19,760
Speaker 2: He was the guy in the back room that got

1405
01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:21,240
Speaker 2: to sit there the entire.

1406
01:03:21,120 --> 01:03:23,480
Speaker 1: Day last in the first round, right our second round.

1407
01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:26,520
Speaker 1: He was second round. If I'm not e J. What

1408
01:03:26,800 --> 01:03:28,840
Speaker 1: was who was the quarterback out of Florida state? That

1409
01:03:29,120 --> 01:03:31,959
Speaker 1: j Manuel out of Southern Virginia baby state.

1410
01:03:32,080 --> 01:03:34,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was the number. He was the top quarterback

1411
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:35,960
Speaker 3: taken on that draft. By the way, all right, I

1412
01:03:36,080 --> 01:03:38,520
Speaker 3: want to continue on because Gino Smith plays a big

1413
01:03:38,560 --> 01:03:39,200
Speaker 3: part in the team.

1414
01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:41,440
Speaker 2: I'm picking to be by far the biggest shaker this

1415
01:03:41,560 --> 01:03:44,760
Speaker 2: year in the NFL. But First, let's find out what

1416
01:03:44,960 --> 01:03:46,800
Speaker 2: is trendy. Moncey is here.

1417
01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:50,080
Speaker 1: I am here, Monty. Who you got is your surprise? NFL?

1418
01:03:50,440 --> 01:03:51,440
Speaker 1: Is it the Chargers?

1419
01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:54,000
Speaker 8: I mean, I understand why Steve says that's not a

1420
01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:57,000
Speaker 8: surprise type of thing, but that is who I have

1421
01:03:57,200 --> 01:03:58,520
Speaker 8: as like making a big jump.

1422
01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:01,840
Speaker 3: Well again at jim Meani getting into the playoffs like

1423
01:04:01,920 --> 01:04:04,200
Speaker 3: the Rams did a year ago or the Texans did

1424
01:04:04,240 --> 01:04:04,640
Speaker 3: a year ago.

1425
01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:05,840
Speaker 1: That's what I'm talking about.

1426
01:04:05,960 --> 01:04:08,120
Speaker 3: Team, not to win a super Bowl, but just to

1427
01:04:08,160 --> 01:04:08,840
Speaker 3: get into the place.

1428
01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:10,920
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it may be even more than just

1429
01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:13,040
Speaker 7: making the playoffs. Maybe just because I'm literally wearing my

1430
01:04:13,080 --> 01:04:13,840
Speaker 7: Charger shirt today.

1431
01:04:13,880 --> 01:04:17,560
Speaker 1: I saw that you bring me to the Monster Burrito. Yeah, yeah,

1432
01:04:17,680 --> 01:04:18,080
Speaker 1: I saw that.

1433
01:04:18,200 --> 01:04:20,280
Speaker 8: I know it's one of my favorite Charger shirts because

1434
01:04:20,280 --> 01:04:21,360
Speaker 8: it doesn't look like a Charger shirt.

1435
01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:22,800
Speaker 7: You got to pay attention. You gotta know what you're

1436
01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:23,160
Speaker 7: looking for.

1437
01:04:24,880 --> 01:04:25,080
Speaker 6: Yeah.

1438
01:04:25,240 --> 01:04:27,840
Speaker 7: So maybe I'm just being hopeful since all of my

1439
01:04:27,920 --> 01:04:28,920
Speaker 7: other teams suck, you.

1440
01:04:28,960 --> 01:04:29,600
Speaker 9: Know what I'm saying.

1441
01:04:29,760 --> 01:04:33,760
Speaker 1: Like your dog, I think she's a guy.

1442
01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:37,040
Speaker 3: She's a die hard Clippers and I'm telling getting rid

1443
01:04:37,360 --> 01:04:40,840
Speaker 3: of that cancer on the team, George is a plus for.

1444
01:04:40,880 --> 01:04:42,880
Speaker 7: The It is a plus. I don't miss him.

1445
01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:45,520
Speaker 1: He called you you you angered Martin and I last

1446
01:04:45,560 --> 01:04:47,320
Speaker 1: when we felt him for convenient rich and you saw

1447
01:04:47,440 --> 01:04:49,280
Speaker 1: you taught you saw what I said? Yeah, no, I

1448
01:04:49,320 --> 01:04:53,080
Speaker 1: thought it was uncalled for the podcast just things.

1449
01:04:53,280 --> 01:04:54,520
Speaker 8: It was uncalled for it.

1450
01:04:54,800 --> 01:04:57,160
Speaker 7: Just move on, bro, and it is co host like,

1451
01:04:57,200 --> 01:04:59,120
Speaker 7: I don't know if you saw the tweets. His host

1452
01:04:59,240 --> 01:05:01,280
Speaker 7: was like clippers anyway, and then he took it down.

1453
01:05:01,360 --> 01:05:03,520
Speaker 7: It's like that's it, go away, go away.

1454
01:05:03,560 --> 01:05:06,280
Speaker 3: He was insulted by that initial sixty million dollar a year.

1455
01:05:09,880 --> 01:05:13,880
Speaker 7: Good luck Philly. Bye, all right, that's probably what the

1456
01:05:13,920 --> 01:05:15,160
Speaker 7: Oriole said to the Yankees.

1457
01:05:15,280 --> 01:05:15,520
Speaker 1: Bye.

1458
01:05:16,080 --> 01:05:19,520
Speaker 8: The Yankees were up, and then the Ools loaded the bases.

1459
01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:22,880
Speaker 8: In the ninth inning, Cedric Mullins with the two RBI

1460
01:05:23,080 --> 01:05:26,040
Speaker 8: double walked it off Alex Verdugo and left field was

1461
01:05:26,120 --> 01:05:29,480
Speaker 8: so shallow it was totally a catchable ball. Tries to

1462
01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:32,840
Speaker 8: run back falls. It's quite funny. And the Orioles beat

1463
01:05:32,880 --> 01:05:33,960
Speaker 8: the Yankee sixty five.

1464
01:05:34,120 --> 01:05:37,480
Speaker 7: It was funny. It was funny.

1465
01:05:37,520 --> 01:05:40,479
Speaker 8: Gunner Henderson did have a two run shot getting ready

1466
01:05:40,520 --> 01:05:43,360
Speaker 8: for that home run derby right now though it's all

1467
01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:46,800
Speaker 8: a's against the Phillies, that's right, that's not a typo.

1468
01:05:46,920 --> 01:05:49,520
Speaker 8: It's ten to three bottom of the seventh inning. In

1469
01:05:49,640 --> 01:05:51,439
Speaker 8: that one, the Red Sox holding on to a slight

1470
01:05:51,560 --> 01:05:53,040
Speaker 8: lead over the Royals four three.

1471
01:05:53,120 --> 01:05:54,120
Speaker 7: Top of the seventh inning.

1472
01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:57,360
Speaker 8: Rays blanking the Guardians two zero. Bottom of the seventh,

1473
01:05:57,560 --> 01:06:00,400
Speaker 8: The Rockies and Mets were tied not anymore. Call Dolrado

1474
01:06:00,480 --> 01:06:02,800
Speaker 8: on top seven to three. Top of the seventh. The

1475
01:06:02,920 --> 01:06:05,240
Speaker 8: Tigers have added another run, but the Dodgers are on

1476
01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:07,800
Speaker 8: top three to two. They're about to start the seventh inning.

1477
01:06:08,080 --> 01:06:10,360
Speaker 8: Ellie de la Cruz with the two run shot ties

1478
01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:10,880
Speaker 8: the game for the.

1479
01:06:10,880 --> 01:06:13,800
Speaker 7: Reds against the Marlins two two, bottom of the seventh.

1480
01:06:14,040 --> 01:06:16,480
Speaker 7: The Pirates are now beating the White Sox four to two.

1481
01:06:16,640 --> 01:06:17,600
Speaker 7: Top of the fifth inning.

1482
01:06:17,680 --> 01:06:19,920
Speaker 8: The Rangers still on top of the Astros two to one.

1483
01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:22,560
Speaker 8: Top of the sixth All Brewers so far against the

1484
01:06:22,640 --> 01:06:24,840
Speaker 8: National seven two. They're about to start the fifth inning.

1485
01:06:25,120 --> 01:06:27,560
Speaker 8: Cubs are now on top of the Cardinals four to two,

1486
01:06:27,680 --> 01:06:28,800
Speaker 8: top of the sixth inning.

1487
01:06:29,080 --> 01:06:31,840
Speaker 7: In the WNBA, Asia Wilson has.

1488
01:06:31,840 --> 01:06:35,720
Speaker 8: Six points and the Mystics are beating the Aces thirty

1489
01:06:35,840 --> 01:06:38,200
Speaker 8: three to twenty two with about seven minutes to go

1490
01:06:38,600 --> 01:06:41,000
Speaker 8: in the first half. The Aces are fifteen and seven

1491
01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:43,760
Speaker 8: the mystics, just to give you an idea, six and seventeen.

1492
01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:46,240
Speaker 8: Asia Wilson just six points so far in the game.

1493
01:06:46,560 --> 01:06:49,280
Speaker 8: Let's check in on Euro twenty twenty four, the final

1494
01:06:49,360 --> 01:06:51,640
Speaker 8: that I'm sure my parents are watching. My mom hates Spain.

1495
01:06:51,880 --> 01:06:54,760
Speaker 8: She's going for Igland. After thirty three minutes, this match

1496
01:06:54,960 --> 01:06:57,640
Speaker 8: is scoreless. You can catch all the action on Fox TV,

1497
01:06:57,800 --> 01:07:00,520
Speaker 8: and then later today it's the Coopa America Fine, also

1498
01:07:00,600 --> 01:07:03,840
Speaker 8: on Fox TV between Columbia and Argentina that kicks off

Speaker 8: at eight Eastern time.

1500
01:07:05,800 --> 01:07:10,280
Speaker 7: And in NFL news, unfortunate news that former Ravens receiver Super.

1501
01:07:10,120 --> 01:07:14,880
Speaker 8: Bowl champion Jacoby Jones passed away, apparently overnight in his sleep,

1502
01:07:14,960 --> 01:07:16,000
Speaker 8: at the age of forty.

1503
01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:18,280
Speaker 7: No cause of death has been announced.

1504
01:07:18,440 --> 01:07:22,920
Speaker 8: Carlos alcaaz one Wimbledon, defeating Novak Djokovic for the second

1505
01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:24,920
Speaker 8: street year, this time in straight sets.

1506
01:07:25,560 --> 01:07:27,600
Speaker 1: Back to you guys, all right, thank you very much.

1507
01:07:27,760 --> 01:07:29,760
Speaker 2: Fine, see we'll check in with you a little bit

1508
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:34,080
Speaker 2: later on once again, Hartman Husky here Fox Sports Sunday.

1509
01:07:34,160 --> 01:07:36,360
Speaker 2: We're talking about teams that are going to come out

1510
01:07:36,400 --> 01:07:40,720
Speaker 2: of nowhere to make it to the playoffs in twenty

1511
01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:43,640
Speaker 2: twenty four. Vja has already put his hat in the

1512
01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:46,120
Speaker 2: ring with the Minnesota Vikings. Chris is going to have

1513
01:07:46,160 --> 01:07:48,640
Speaker 2: an entry. Maybe Bo's got one as well coming up here,

1514
01:07:48,680 --> 01:07:50,360
Speaker 2: but I'm going to give you mine. So I was

1515
01:07:50,400 --> 01:07:54,440
Speaker 2: talking about the Seahawks when they big farewell to Russell Wilson,

1516
01:07:54,840 --> 01:07:56,720
Speaker 2: they ended up putting Gino Smith.

1517
01:07:57,760 --> 01:07:58,440
Speaker 1: Gino Smith.

1518
01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:00,640
Speaker 2: In fact, it was funny because you know, Smith was

1519
01:08:00,680 --> 01:08:03,080
Speaker 2: comeback Player of the Year and I remember thinking, come

1520
01:08:03,160 --> 01:08:06,800
Speaker 2: back from what he never was anything. He got paid too,

1521
01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:09,720
Speaker 2: I mean, and he got paid and now they're relevant.

1522
01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:11,720
Speaker 2: You know why because they have a good coach. His

1523
01:08:11,840 --> 01:08:14,680
Speaker 2: name is Pete Carroll. Give you another team that appears

1524
01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:17,719
Speaker 2: to be well rudderless right now in terms of quarterback

1525
01:08:17,760 --> 01:08:20,200
Speaker 2: after getting rid of Russell Wilson, and.

1526
01:08:20,240 --> 01:08:21,600
Speaker 1: That would be the Denver Broncos.

1527
01:08:23,439 --> 01:08:28,120
Speaker 2: I think the same fate that happened to the Seahawks

1528
01:08:28,160 --> 01:08:30,439
Speaker 2: after they got rid of Russell Wilson and happened upon

1529
01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:32,439
Speaker 2: Gino Smith is gonna happen this year.

1530
01:08:32,360 --> 01:08:33,480
Speaker 1: With the Denver Broncos.

1531
01:08:33,960 --> 01:08:37,400
Speaker 3: What Zach Wilson, Jared Stidham, No, how about the rookie

1532
01:08:37,479 --> 01:08:38,160
Speaker 3: bow Knicks.

1533
01:08:38,439 --> 01:08:41,439
Speaker 2: Yeh, Bo Nicks is not a normal rookie in the NFL.

1534
01:08:41,560 --> 01:08:46,040
Speaker 2: He played five full years as a starting well, he's

1535
01:08:46,080 --> 01:08:48,679
Speaker 2: a full twenty four I mean twenty five in January.

1536
01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:51,840
Speaker 2: He played five years, three years in the SEC two

1537
01:08:52,280 --> 01:08:55,960
Speaker 2: obviously at Oregon, and I loved everything I saw from him.

1538
01:08:56,040 --> 01:08:59,240
Speaker 2: At Oregon. He couldn't beat Washington. Michael Pennix had his number,

1539
01:08:59,320 --> 01:09:04,040
Speaker 2: no question about that. But now Sean Payton has a

1540
01:09:04,240 --> 01:09:08,600
Speaker 2: quarterback that he wants. Yeah, he has a quarterback that

1541
01:09:08,840 --> 01:09:12,320
Speaker 2: he will take in, much as he took in Drew Brees.

1542
01:09:12,360 --> 01:09:14,080
Speaker 2: I know Brees have been with the Chargers, but he

1543
01:09:14,240 --> 01:09:17,800
Speaker 2: reinvented Drew Brees to fit his system. He could not

1544
01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:20,920
Speaker 2: do it out with Russell Wilson. He will do that

1545
01:09:21,040 --> 01:09:24,360
Speaker 2: with bow Knicks. That defense that was so bad, like

1546
01:09:24,520 --> 01:09:26,720
Speaker 2: when they put a gave up seventy, We're thinking this

1547
01:09:26,840 --> 01:09:29,120
Speaker 2: is this is not just bad, this is his start.

1548
01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:31,680
Speaker 2: But they turned that defense around and by the end

1549
01:09:31,720 --> 01:09:34,240
Speaker 2: of the year the Broncos actually statistically were one of

1550
01:09:34,320 --> 01:09:35,920
Speaker 2: the best defenses in the league.

1551
01:09:36,080 --> 01:09:38,360
Speaker 1: The schedule help that too. We have to make sure

1552
01:09:38,360 --> 01:09:40,479
Speaker 1: we did the schedule help that. They played some really

1553
01:09:40,520 --> 01:09:42,240
Speaker 1: bad teams in like a five week span.

1554
01:09:42,439 --> 01:09:45,360
Speaker 2: But much as I'm a believer in Pete Carroll and

1555
01:09:45,439 --> 01:09:47,040
Speaker 2: the idea of that Pete carrolly you know who makes

1556
01:09:47,080 --> 01:09:50,320
Speaker 2: who you know quarterback making the coach I believe and

1557
01:09:50,800 --> 01:09:53,719
Speaker 2: the odds are now the bow Knicks as a rookie, again,

1558
01:09:53,800 --> 01:09:56,280
Speaker 2: not a normal rookie, because he had five full seasons

1559
01:09:56,320 --> 01:09:59,400
Speaker 2: as a starter at the collegiate level at Auburn and Oregon.

1560
01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:03,280
Speaker 2: He's gonna be a starting quarterback. And obviously we saw

1561
01:10:03,439 --> 01:10:05,519
Speaker 2: what happened a year ago in Houston with CJ.

1562
01:10:05,680 --> 01:10:06,080
Speaker 1: Stroud.

1563
01:10:07,080 --> 01:10:10,479
Speaker 3: This is a veteran coach, Sean Payton, that understands the

1564
01:10:10,560 --> 01:10:12,479
Speaker 3: quarterback position as well as anybody.

1565
01:10:13,439 --> 01:10:17,080
Speaker 2: The Denver Broncos, mark my word. This is why the

1566
01:10:17,200 --> 01:10:19,080
Speaker 2: Chargers are not gonna be the team you think the

1567
01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:22,720
Speaker 2: arey there is. They're not gonna be that team. The

1568
01:10:22,840 --> 01:10:25,280
Speaker 2: Raiders are not gonna be that team. If there's gonna

1569
01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:26,600
Speaker 2: be a team that's gonna.

1570
01:10:26,439 --> 01:10:29,479
Speaker 3: Trail the Chiefs and get in as a wild card,

1571
01:10:30,040 --> 01:10:35,680
Speaker 3: it's gonna be the Denver Broncos. Now Denver Broncos will

1572
01:10:35,760 --> 01:10:39,080
Speaker 3: make the playoffs in twenty twenty four.

1573
01:10:39,200 --> 01:10:41,439
Speaker 1: No, that's not happen. I love your Seattle pick though,

1574
01:10:41,439 --> 01:10:43,200
Speaker 1: because I was high on Seattle last year. The only

1575
01:10:43,240 --> 01:10:45,519
Speaker 1: thing about this division this year in the NFC West,

1576
01:10:45,840 --> 01:10:48,080
Speaker 1: I think this division is better than most people want

1577
01:10:48,120 --> 01:10:50,320
Speaker 1: to give it credit for. The Niners are still powerful,

1578
01:10:50,600 --> 01:10:52,519
Speaker 1: although I don't think they get back to the super Bowl.

1579
01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:54,320
Speaker 1: Only two teams have gotten back to the super Bowl

1580
01:10:54,400 --> 01:10:56,960
Speaker 1: after losing it the following year in the last thirty years.

1581
01:10:57,240 --> 01:10:59,439
Speaker 1: That's the Buffalo Bills and the New England Patriots. So

1582
01:10:59,479 --> 01:11:01,439
Speaker 1: that's nothing that happens. They got the talent to do it,

1583
01:11:01,640 --> 01:11:04,080
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna go with the thirty year history on that.

1584
01:11:04,160 --> 01:11:06,680
Speaker 1: So there's gonna be a new NFC representative. I like

1585
01:11:06,800 --> 01:11:09,360
Speaker 1: the Rams. I really like the Rams. You talk about

1586
01:11:09,360 --> 01:11:11,280
Speaker 1: a guy that can coach. Let's let's go ahead and

1587
01:11:11,280 --> 01:11:13,320
Speaker 1: get Sean McVay his flowers. Right now, he's got a

1588
01:11:13,360 --> 01:11:15,560
Speaker 1: Super Bowl ring and he's coaching another super Bowl. And

1589
01:11:15,680 --> 01:11:17,479
Speaker 1: they know they know how to draft guys, man, and

1590
01:11:17,520 --> 01:11:20,240
Speaker 1: they make mistakes and they get guys like Todd Gurley

1591
01:11:20,360 --> 01:11:22,840
Speaker 1: is an afterthought now, right, They got a running back

1592
01:11:22,840 --> 01:11:24,960
Speaker 1: and they got a running game. There, you got a quarterback,

1593
01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:28,320
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford. Everybody blamed everything on him in Detroit, Okay,

1594
01:11:28,439 --> 01:11:30,240
Speaker 1: no problem, get rid of him, you know, that this

1595
01:11:30,439 --> 01:11:31,040
Speaker 1: was the first.

1596
01:11:30,920 --> 01:11:33,760
Speaker 3: Time he ever actually legitimately made the Pro Bowl. The

1597
01:11:33,880 --> 01:11:35,200
Speaker 3: only other Pro Bowl hit ever.

1598
01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:36,000
Speaker 1: He was an alternation.

1599
01:11:37,040 --> 01:11:39,920
Speaker 3: This was the first time in his career that he

1600
01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:42,559
Speaker 3: actually was voted legitimately into the Pro Bowl.

1601
01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:44,240
Speaker 1: And the year they had the Super Bowl hangover. I

1602
01:11:44,320 --> 01:11:45,960
Speaker 1: think they needed that year because they pushed all their

1603
01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:48,080
Speaker 1: chips And people don't understand. Man, When you push all

1604
01:11:48,160 --> 01:11:51,000
Speaker 1: your chips in on the season and you and you

1605
01:11:51,160 --> 01:11:53,720
Speaker 1: and you get it done, it takes it takes a

1606
01:11:53,800 --> 01:11:56,439
Speaker 1: like you almost you get a chance to go. Remember

1607
01:11:56,520 --> 01:11:59,800
Speaker 1: Steve Young having a teammate pulled the monkey off his

1608
01:12:00,200 --> 01:12:02,439
Speaker 1: on the sideline for the NFL films care But you

1609
01:12:02,479 --> 01:12:06,519
Speaker 1: could tell that really was I got one. I don't

1610
01:12:06,600 --> 01:12:08,920
Speaker 1: need another one. I always say the Super Bowl ring

1611
01:12:09,040 --> 01:12:11,400
Speaker 1: is the one time you only need one. You only

1612
01:12:11,439 --> 01:12:14,599
Speaker 1: need one Stanley Cup once exactly. But in the NBA

1613
01:12:14,720 --> 01:12:16,240
Speaker 1: you gotta win five and six. Right in the Major

1614
01:12:16,320 --> 01:12:18,200
Speaker 1: League Baseball, you got to win four and five World

1615
01:12:18,280 --> 01:12:20,840
Speaker 1: CERI no man, Stanley Cups, Super Bowl. All you need

1616
01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:23,400
Speaker 1: is won they ring loud. I like Seattle on this

1617
01:12:23,479 --> 01:12:25,519
Speaker 1: division that Denver pick for you. I agree with you

1618
01:12:25,600 --> 01:12:27,400
Speaker 1: on bo Knicks. I think Bow Knicks is gonna be

1619
01:12:27,439 --> 01:12:29,599
Speaker 1: a lot better because he's a more mature guy.

1620
01:12:29,640 --> 01:12:32,280
Speaker 3: He has a coach and Sean Kayden.

1621
01:12:32,400 --> 01:12:35,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, this this idea that young and running and accurate.

1622
01:12:36,080 --> 01:12:38,400
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't there's nothing I don't like about

1623
01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:40,639
Speaker 2: bo Nicks. They still have a lot of other holes

1624
01:12:40,760 --> 01:12:43,760
Speaker 2: on this team. Though I think there's defenses average.

1625
01:12:43,760 --> 01:12:46,160
Speaker 1: They have a lot of holes here on offense. I'm

1626
01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:50,200
Speaker 1: interested to see. But charges. The Chargers have Chargers in

1627
01:12:50,280 --> 01:12:52,200
Speaker 1: the AFC, so you got them in the AFC, So

1628
01:12:52,280 --> 01:12:52,679
Speaker 1: you got.

1629
01:12:52,640 --> 01:12:56,080
Speaker 3: Them winning second in the AFC West, Chargers will be third,

1630
01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:56,960
Speaker 3: Raiders will be fourth.

1631
01:12:57,120 --> 01:13:00,080
Speaker 1: So Jags, so we know you got the Jagson n

1632
01:13:00,560 --> 01:13:02,639
Speaker 1: AFC South. You got to You got to tell.

1633
01:13:02,640 --> 01:13:04,960
Speaker 3: Hi Trevor Lawrence the jury's out.

1634
01:13:05,040 --> 01:13:07,360
Speaker 2: By the way, think about that, five quarterbacks taking the

1635
01:13:07,439 --> 01:13:09,880
Speaker 2: first fifteen picks of that draft three years ago, and

1636
01:13:09,960 --> 01:13:11,559
Speaker 2: four of them are no longer with their team.

1637
01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:15,040
Speaker 1: Okay, so but he's the only survivor. But just real fast,

1638
01:13:15,120 --> 01:13:18,400
Speaker 1: if the Broncos are making the playoffs, so I got Casey, Cincinnati,

1639
01:13:18,520 --> 01:13:21,720
Speaker 1: Baltimore wild card teams in Miami. Those teams are going

1640
01:13:21,760 --> 01:13:25,160
Speaker 1: to the playoffs. Who's didn't for knocking out because I

1641
01:13:25,240 --> 01:13:26,440
Speaker 1: know I'm missing somebody.

1642
01:13:26,200 --> 01:13:29,240
Speaker 3: Right, I think Miami's in trouble. Oh lord, did you

1643
01:13:29,280 --> 01:13:31,400
Speaker 3: see them fade away last year? At the end of

1644
01:13:31,439 --> 01:13:34,960
Speaker 3: the year, you walk, you saw the trajectory of the

1645
01:13:35,040 --> 01:13:36,200
Speaker 3: Miami Dolphins last year.

1646
01:13:36,320 --> 01:13:38,160
Speaker 1: You got to tell the complete stories. Why did they fail?

1647
01:13:38,280 --> 01:13:41,679
Speaker 1: Why did they fade? Tell the whole story? Doesn't matter

1648
01:13:41,760 --> 01:13:45,760
Speaker 1: what the story is. No, no, that does matter. You

1649
01:13:45,840 --> 01:13:51,840
Speaker 1: had a home game, faded, Wattle, Wadle out, Tyreek out,

1650
01:13:52,200 --> 01:13:57,080
Speaker 1: Louise Phillips, lose Chubb a quarterback, Louise Van Gating, Stop it,

1651
01:13:57,200 --> 01:14:00,200
Speaker 1: Louise van Giegle. I'm naming guys that matter. Okay, I'm

1652
01:14:00,200 --> 01:14:03,720
Speaker 1: not naming Johnny trum Lately's off the sideline, so they

1653
01:14:03,880 --> 01:14:06,960
Speaker 1: lo there. We were signing people off the street. The rush,

1654
01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:09,720
Speaker 1: Patrick Maholmes going into that game of a home game

1655
01:14:09,760 --> 01:14:13,040
Speaker 1: to win the division. You chook, we blued the Tennessee game.

1656
01:14:13,280 --> 01:14:15,400
Speaker 1: You're right, we blew a Tennessee game. The different game

1657
01:14:15,400 --> 01:14:17,240
Speaker 1: didn't matter because I mean, I mean it's common. The

1658
01:14:17,280 --> 01:14:18,160
Speaker 1: Buffalo game didn't matter.

1659
01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:20,960
Speaker 2: The trajectory reminds me of the Chargers two years ago

1660
01:14:21,000 --> 01:14:23,200
Speaker 2: and their trajectory when they lost that playoff game to

1661
01:14:23,280 --> 01:14:24,800
Speaker 2: Jacksonville had a last year.

1662
01:14:24,760 --> 01:14:26,439
Speaker 1: Go eleven and six last year. So were you got

1663
01:14:26,479 --> 01:14:27,439
Speaker 1: Miami this year? Okay.

1664
01:14:28,000 --> 01:14:29,680
Speaker 3: On the other side, we'll get Chris bo.

1665
01:14:29,880 --> 01:14:31,080
Speaker 1: Do you have you have that team?

1666
01:14:31,160 --> 01:14:34,919
Speaker 3: He's got one as well. Which teams come out of nowhere?

1667
01:14:35,000 --> 01:14:37,280
Speaker 1: Watch it? I'm telling you, Mike Broncos genius.

1668
01:14:37,720 --> 01:14:41,960
Speaker 2: Right, this is Fox Sports Sunday, Steve Harbin VJ. Husky,

1669
01:14:42,280 --> 01:14:46,880
Speaker 2: Harbin and Husky Fox Sports Sunday. We're alive from the

1670
01:14:46,960 --> 01:14:49,000
Speaker 2: tyrack dot Com studios. All right, I want to get

1671
01:14:49,080 --> 01:14:54,320
Speaker 2: right to it. All right, Chris, what you got see Bo?

1672
01:14:55,600 --> 01:14:59,559
Speaker 2: You've heard our picks. So VJ is saying the Minnesota Vikings. Yes,

1673
01:15:00,240 --> 01:15:03,640
Speaker 2: the fact that they lose their quarterback, no problem. They

1674
01:15:03,640 --> 01:15:05,720
Speaker 2: will bounce back in a big way and they will

1675
01:15:05,760 --> 01:15:08,080
Speaker 2: be a playoff team. I'm even going a step further

1676
01:15:08,520 --> 01:15:11,479
Speaker 2: that with a rookie quarterback, the Denver Broncos are going

1677
01:15:11,560 --> 01:15:13,160
Speaker 2: to shock the world and be a playoff team.

1678
01:15:13,200 --> 01:15:15,240
Speaker 1: This real quick. Minnesota is going to have a rookie too.

1679
01:15:15,320 --> 01:15:17,599
Speaker 1: JJ McCarthy's going to be the starter. It's Sam Donald.

1680
01:15:18,320 --> 01:15:21,960
Speaker 1: If Sam Donald starts, they're they're shooting himselves in the stand. Anyway.

1681
01:15:22,040 --> 01:15:24,800
Speaker 1: I promised. I promised, Chris, especially that you would not

1682
01:15:24,880 --> 01:15:28,920
Speaker 1: bring up JJ McCarthy. You know he thinks that he

1683
01:15:29,240 --> 01:15:30,000
Speaker 1: is so bad.

1684
01:15:30,400 --> 01:15:34,640
Speaker 3: I'm with you. I think McCarthy's actually okay. But you know,

1685
01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:37,120
Speaker 3: all right, so Chris, let's start with you give us

1686
01:15:37,200 --> 01:15:40,400
Speaker 3: the team that nobody is talking about.

1687
01:15:40,200 --> 01:15:41,759
Speaker 1: To be a playoff team in twenty twenty.

1688
01:15:41,840 --> 01:15:45,000
Speaker 3: First off honorable mention. I think the Cardinals will do better,

1689
01:15:45,080 --> 01:15:47,080
Speaker 3: but they are not my pick. I do like kind

1690
01:15:47,120 --> 01:15:48,759
Speaker 3: of how they look near the end of that season.

1691
01:15:49,320 --> 01:15:52,479
Speaker 3: Adding Marvin Harrison Junior should not be understated, especially making

1692
01:15:52,520 --> 01:15:56,599
Speaker 3: Kyler Murray improve. But I think sometimes all you need

1693
01:15:56,720 --> 01:15:59,320
Speaker 3: is a little seasoning. Last year, you had a rookie

1694
01:15:59,320 --> 01:16:02,240
Speaker 3: head coach, a first time head coach, you had a

1695
01:16:03,120 --> 01:16:06,920
Speaker 3: rookie quarterback. You had a team coming off some tremendously

1696
01:16:07,200 --> 01:16:10,519
Speaker 3: bad times that they've had, and they showed flash and

1697
01:16:10,640 --> 01:16:15,760
Speaker 3: promise ultimately derailed by injuries. And I'm talking about and

1698
01:16:15,880 --> 01:16:18,320
Speaker 3: it pains me. I think, Steve, you know my history

1699
01:16:18,400 --> 01:16:20,400
Speaker 3: with this team and how certain writers for this team

1700
01:16:20,439 --> 01:16:22,800
Speaker 3: have tried to get me fired. Oh, but it is

1701
01:16:22,840 --> 01:16:26,000
Speaker 3: the Indianapolis Colts. I do like the Colts coming into

1702
01:16:26,040 --> 01:16:28,760
Speaker 3: this year for several reasons. I do what we saw

1703
01:16:28,800 --> 01:16:32,240
Speaker 3: of Anthony Richardson has me extremely hopeful for that team.

1704
01:16:32,320 --> 01:16:35,200
Speaker 3: I loved his talent through college. I loved what he

1705
01:16:35,280 --> 01:16:37,920
Speaker 3: has looked so far in the NFL up until he

1706
01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:40,679
Speaker 3: was hurt. They've been adding trying to add talents around

1707
01:16:40,720 --> 01:16:43,160
Speaker 3: him Shane Steike and again first time as a head coach.

1708
01:16:43,280 --> 01:16:45,280
Speaker 3: But I like what he's brought to the Colts. As

1709
01:16:45,320 --> 01:16:47,559
Speaker 3: far as an offense. You look at that Division two

1710
01:16:47,840 --> 01:16:52,080
Speaker 3: eminently winnable. How you feel about the Jaguars, We've all

1711
01:16:52,160 --> 01:16:54,519
Speaker 3: been mixed on how we feel about the Jaguars here.

1712
01:16:54,760 --> 01:16:56,800
Speaker 3: I think we can disregard the Tennessee Titans. So it

1713
01:16:56,920 --> 01:16:59,599
Speaker 3: just comes back to the question of do you think

1714
01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:02,760
Speaker 3: the Houston Texans can repeat as a threat, and that

1715
01:17:02,960 --> 01:17:05,560
Speaker 3: is tough to do what they did last year. I

1716
01:17:06,320 --> 01:17:08,760
Speaker 3: do like what they have done, but I feel like

1717
01:17:08,880 --> 01:17:11,280
Speaker 3: always we say this every year, there's always new blood

1718
01:17:11,320 --> 01:17:14,760
Speaker 3: in every division every year, and I think following with that,

1719
01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:17,519
Speaker 3: following talents of a quarterback that should be healed up

1720
01:17:17,520 --> 01:17:20,560
Speaker 3: and improved, following a coach getting his systems in for

1721
01:17:20,600 --> 01:17:23,200
Speaker 3: a second year, and the other talent that's on that team.

1722
01:17:23,320 --> 01:17:25,280
Speaker 3: I do like the Indianapolis Colts to come out of

1723
01:17:25,320 --> 01:17:27,320
Speaker 3: because I don't think anyone's talking about the Colts. It's

1724
01:17:27,400 --> 01:17:29,719
Speaker 3: the AFC South first. Well, the overrun on the Colts

1725
01:17:29,840 --> 01:17:31,479
Speaker 3: is about it, eight and a half wins. I like

1726
01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:34,439
Speaker 3: the Colts, I don't know if they're that far of

1727
01:17:34,520 --> 01:17:36,320
Speaker 3: a reach, especially in that division.

1728
01:17:36,360 --> 01:17:39,160
Speaker 1: I want to point out too, so this bounces for

1729
01:17:39,280 --> 01:17:41,960
Speaker 1: them and for the Texas for everybody that loves the Texans.

1730
01:17:42,560 --> 01:17:45,479
Speaker 1: Let's not act like the Colts have that game in hand.

1731
01:17:45,760 --> 01:17:48,920
Speaker 1: The last game of the year, the coach decides to

1732
01:17:49,040 --> 01:17:52,400
Speaker 1: call a throwout to the flat to a fallback who

1733
01:17:52,479 --> 01:17:57,080
Speaker 1: you have only targeted one time previously all year long.

1734
01:17:57,600 --> 01:18:00,760
Speaker 1: It's a perfect throw. He flied out, drops it all

1735
01:18:00,800 --> 01:18:04,240
Speaker 1: fourth and one, and that's how Houston wins that division.

1736
01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:06,280
Speaker 1: So I'm not mad at that. I'm not mad at

1737
01:18:06,280 --> 01:18:06,559
Speaker 1: that pig.

1738
01:18:06,640 --> 01:18:09,400
Speaker 3: And again, that's that's way past when Anthony Richardson shut

1739
01:18:09,439 --> 01:18:12,280
Speaker 3: down for the shutdown in week richard now was phenomenal.

1740
01:18:12,360 --> 01:18:14,200
Speaker 1: He just has to stay healthy and that's the biggest

1741
01:18:14,240 --> 01:18:16,679
Speaker 1: crass going to be the problem. That's gonna be the problem.

1742
01:18:16,760 --> 01:18:20,720
Speaker 1: But they also got Uncle Flacco as their backup right now,

1743
01:18:20,800 --> 01:18:23,439
Speaker 1: who was shown Hey, I may not be ay Gee seventeen,

1744
01:18:23,960 --> 01:18:25,479
Speaker 1: but I'll give you eight and nine if a guy

1745
01:18:25,560 --> 01:18:25,960
Speaker 1: goes down.

1746
01:18:26,240 --> 01:18:28,880
Speaker 3: That was a miracle run for Flak. Come on now, no,

1747
01:18:29,080 --> 01:18:32,640
Speaker 3: I mean Flack. And then he woke up in that

1748
01:18:32,760 --> 01:18:33,439
Speaker 3: playoff game.

1749
01:18:34,120 --> 01:18:36,400
Speaker 1: Well, no, he woke up in a play Like I said,

1750
01:18:36,439 --> 01:18:38,719
Speaker 1: it's not longevity. He's not gonna be a whole season.

1751
01:18:39,080 --> 01:18:41,280
Speaker 1: But if Flacco, if you need Flacco to win your

1752
01:18:41,520 --> 01:18:43,680
Speaker 1: four or five games, I've seen him do it.

1753
01:18:43,880 --> 01:18:45,400
Speaker 2: If they're if they're going to be a playoff team,

1754
01:18:45,400 --> 01:18:47,479
Speaker 2: it's going to be Richardson all the way, all the way,

1755
01:18:47,479 --> 01:18:48,960
Speaker 2: all right, bo what he got for us?

1756
01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:50,640
Speaker 9: Two teams that I think could make the playoffs but

1757
01:18:50,680 --> 01:18:52,400
Speaker 9: aren't really like out of the blue. I think the

1758
01:18:52,479 --> 01:18:55,519
Speaker 9: Browns could do it if Deshaun Watson doesn't oh go

1759
01:18:55,640 --> 01:18:58,000
Speaker 9: to the place again. I think the Bears can make

1760
01:18:58,040 --> 01:18:58,920
Speaker 9: the playoffs next year.

1761
01:18:59,160 --> 01:19:00,720
Speaker 1: It's slow down here, okay now.

1762
01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:03,680
Speaker 2: Ibra Flus is the favorite, that yeah, favorite, to be

1763
01:19:03,920 --> 01:19:05,880
Speaker 2: coach of the Year, which obviously is only gonna happen

1764
01:19:06,040 --> 01:19:06,559
Speaker 2: if they make.

1765
01:19:06,479 --> 01:19:08,320
Speaker 9: The play jillly Gabriel is the betting favorite to win

1766
01:19:08,320 --> 01:19:09,880
Speaker 9: the Heisman right now, but I don't think that's gonna happen.

1767
01:19:09,880 --> 01:19:10,040
Speaker 6: Either.

1768
01:19:10,800 --> 01:19:12,679
Speaker 9: The team that's gonna maybe be out of the blue

1769
01:19:12,920 --> 01:19:15,679
Speaker 9: and make the playoffs next year is the Carolina Panthers. Wow,

1770
01:19:16,080 --> 01:19:18,880
Speaker 9: explain that one to the NFC. South sucks right, like

1771
01:19:18,960 --> 01:19:20,559
Speaker 9: nobody in the blows anybody away.

1772
01:19:21,080 --> 01:19:21,200
Speaker 3: Uh.

1773
01:19:21,439 --> 01:19:23,120
Speaker 9: They have a new head coach and Dave Canalis who

1774
01:19:23,160 --> 01:19:24,360
Speaker 9: fixed Baker Mayfield last year.

1775
01:19:25,240 --> 01:19:25,360
Speaker 6: Uh.

1776
01:19:25,560 --> 01:19:27,559
Speaker 9: Bryce Young was a first overall pick for a reason.

1777
01:19:27,720 --> 01:19:28,920
Speaker 9: I don't think you can call a guy a bust

1778
01:19:28,960 --> 01:19:29,559
Speaker 9: after one year.

1779
01:19:29,720 --> 01:19:30,320
Speaker 1: I agree with that.

1780
01:19:30,439 --> 01:19:32,559
Speaker 9: I like I like Xavier leget their first round pick

1781
01:19:32,600 --> 01:19:34,240
Speaker 9: out of South Caroline. He's a good wide receiver. I

1782
01:19:34,280 --> 01:19:35,120
Speaker 9: like Jonathan Brooks.

1783
01:19:35,600 --> 01:19:38,320
Speaker 1: Okay, that that is. Now, that's a team you're picking

1784
01:19:38,400 --> 01:19:38,760
Speaker 1: that team?

1785
01:19:38,840 --> 01:19:39,080
Speaker 6: That is?

1786
01:19:39,479 --> 01:19:41,439
Speaker 1: If that happens, I am gonna give you. Uh.

1787
01:19:43,640 --> 01:19:46,400
Speaker 9: I think there's a world where that happens. It's possible.

1788
01:19:46,439 --> 01:19:47,800
Speaker 1: No, I don't. I don't hate it at all. I'm

1789
01:19:47,840 --> 01:19:49,240
Speaker 1: with you, ol B. Why you know? B? Why is

1790
01:19:49,320 --> 01:19:51,879
Speaker 1: my guy? I've been watching He's a sophomore at Cathedral

1791
01:19:51,960 --> 01:19:54,120
Speaker 1: before he transferred to Modern Day. So I'm all with

1792
01:19:54,240 --> 01:19:56,639
Speaker 1: you on B. Why the legate pick? I'm just it's

1793
01:19:57,560 --> 01:20:00,400
Speaker 1: it's you know, receivers, we get these big, these big

1794
01:20:00,439 --> 01:20:03,200
Speaker 1: classic receivers that come in every year, there's always one

1795
01:20:03,280 --> 01:20:06,360
Speaker 1: that falls off. Remember Terras Marshall from U LSU. That

1796
01:20:06,560 --> 01:20:10,280
Speaker 1: was Witt Chase, that was wit Justin Jefferson. He's he's

1797
01:20:10,320 --> 01:20:12,320
Speaker 1: almost been just kind of jet set it off and

1798
01:20:12,400 --> 01:20:14,280
Speaker 1: the guy may be out of the league in two years. Side.

1799
01:20:14,640 --> 01:20:17,479
Speaker 1: I think I think leg It could be that guy.

1800
01:20:17,760 --> 01:20:20,360
Speaker 1: This at this class of receivers at two or three

1801
01:20:20,400 --> 01:20:21,960
Speaker 1: years down the line, we look, we go. God man,

1802
01:20:21,960 --> 01:20:24,479
Speaker 1: they missed on another one because they went for Terras

1803
01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:27,200
Speaker 1: Marshall and that didn't work out either. So you do

1804
01:20:27,320 --> 01:20:29,200
Speaker 1: believe in Bryce here? Look at it? Yes, I'm believing.

1805
01:20:29,240 --> 01:20:30,960
Speaker 3: Being in the LA we watched him develop.

1806
01:20:31,080 --> 01:20:31,719
Speaker 1: I hope.

1807
01:20:31,800 --> 01:20:34,040
Speaker 3: I'm rooting for him to have a big bounce back year.

1808
01:20:34,080 --> 01:20:36,519
Speaker 1: But that is one team. I don't see how they

1809
01:20:36,600 --> 01:20:38,559
Speaker 1: make them playoffs. They called him both. All right, Well,

1810

1828

1829
01:21:37,120 --> 01:21:41,040
Speaker 2: that are inspired, even Carolina Panther fans by actually uttering

1830
01:21:41,160 --> 01:21:46,960
Speaker 2: the words Carolina Panthers. But all of a sudden, DJ's

1831
01:21:47,000 --> 01:21:50,080
Speaker 2: like jumping out of his seat. Yes, I'm telling one

1832
01:21:50,120 --> 01:21:52,599

Speaker 2: I always appreciate that everyone indulges me with that kind

1838
01:22:05,479 --> 01:22:07,400
Speaker 2: of stuff because sometimes it's got to let out the

1839
01:22:07,479 --> 01:22:10,400
Speaker 2: stories and people understand that, even if they really have

1840
01:22:10,479 --> 01:22:14,000
Speaker 2: no interest in them. But anyway, in the midst of

Speaker 2: Playoffs in twenty four, twenty twenty four, and no one

1849
01:22:40,320 --> 01:22:43,559
Speaker 2: is picking the Carolina Panthers. When you've had the number

1850
01:22:43,560 --> 01:22:44,880
Speaker 2: one pick in the draft two years in a row,

1851
01:22:45,040 --> 01:22:47,000
Speaker 2: no one is picking you, and when you're coming off

1852
01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:47,960
Speaker 2: the kind of season they had.

1853
01:22:48,000 --> 01:22:51,679
Speaker 1: They were bad in every respect. They had no offense,

1854
01:22:51,720 --> 01:22:55,439
Speaker 1: they have no defense, they have nothing owner throwing drinks

1855
01:22:55,479 --> 01:22:58,120
Speaker 1: on people, all right. I get to you.

1856
01:22:58,200 --> 01:23:00,600
Speaker 2: When they talk about Bryce Young, I was one of

1857
01:23:00,640 --> 01:23:04,280
Speaker 2: those that said, look, they were one hundred percent sold

1858
01:23:04,320 --> 01:23:08,320
Speaker 2: on Bryce Young. I was not one hundred percent sold

1859
01:23:08,360 --> 01:23:11,080
Speaker 2: on Frank Reich. I like Frank Reich as a man.

1860
01:23:11,120 --> 01:23:12,720
Speaker 2: I got to know when he was an assistant coach

1861
01:23:12,800 --> 01:23:15,240
Speaker 2: down with the San Diego Chargers as they were then known,

1862
01:23:15,920 --> 01:23:18,800
Speaker 2: And but I, you know, I just didn't know what

1863
01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:21,559
Speaker 2: we're going to see with him in terms of developing

1864
01:23:21,760 --> 01:23:25,200
Speaker 2: on quarterback. I think that was a bad hire with

1865
01:23:25,320 --> 01:23:27,519
Speaker 2: a young quarterback like Bryce Young. So it's a do

1866
01:23:27,680 --> 01:23:28,639
Speaker 2: over for Bryce Young.

1867
01:23:28,880 --> 01:23:30,479
Speaker 3: And maybe it could be a dueover like it was

1868
01:23:30,560 --> 01:23:31,439
Speaker 3: for Trevor Lawrence.

1869
01:23:31,800 --> 01:23:34,960
Speaker 2: Remember that first disastrous year with Urban Meyer, you know,

1870
01:23:35,040 --> 01:23:37,160
Speaker 2: and all of a sudden you bring in Peterson. It

1871
01:23:37,320 --> 01:23:40,040
Speaker 2: was a super Bowl winning coach, and all of a sudden,

1872
01:23:40,120 --> 01:23:42,599
Speaker 2: we saw much different Trevor Lawrence year two from year one.

1873
01:23:42,680 --> 01:23:45,040
Speaker 2: So maybe we'll see that as far as Bryce Young.

1874
01:23:45,120 --> 01:23:47,120
Speaker 2: But there's got to be more to it than that.

1875
01:23:47,640 --> 01:23:51,600
Speaker 2: That is sparking your interest and your enthusiasm for the

1876
01:23:51,680 --> 01:23:56,480
Speaker 2: Carolina Panthers to have an incredible turnaround in twenty twenty four, explained.

1877
01:23:56,160 --> 01:23:58,120
Speaker 1: Well, Number one, BOE's one of my favorite people to

1878
01:23:58,200 --> 01:24:00,479
Speaker 1: talk sports with here. He knows that. No, oh, we

1879
01:24:00,520 --> 01:24:02,320
Speaker 1: could just we could just hey, how are you doing,

1880
01:24:02,360 --> 01:24:04,000
Speaker 1: how'd your wife? How's your dor? So not that we

1881
01:24:04,080 --> 01:24:06,360
Speaker 1: get right into it and he's thought provoking. I like

1882
01:24:06,360 --> 01:24:08,240
Speaker 1: guyaid thought provoking. But the reason why I like this,

1883
01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:11,400
Speaker 1: this is why you have to stop these narratives. I'm

1884
01:24:11,400 --> 01:24:13,160
Speaker 1: with you, Christ when we're talking you guys talk about

1885
01:24:14,240 --> 01:24:17,240
Speaker 1: a quarterback being a bus right, because this is also

1886
01:24:17,479 --> 01:24:20,599
Speaker 1: returning the fourth ranked defense in the league last year

1887
01:24:20,640 --> 01:24:22,760
Speaker 1: that allowed under three hundred yards a game. So there's

1888
01:24:22,840 --> 01:24:25,360
Speaker 1: that no one talks about that. You talk about Brooks.

1889
01:24:25,400 --> 01:24:27,160
Speaker 1: I'm with you on that, But then you also add

1890
01:24:27,200 --> 01:24:29,680
Speaker 1: him with Rashad Penny, who's going into his eighth year

1891
01:24:29,800 --> 01:24:31,519
Speaker 1: but has he's a veteran, right, you need a locker

1892
01:24:31,600 --> 01:24:33,240
Speaker 1: room guy. You need a guy to teach these young

1893
01:24:33,320 --> 01:24:35,559
Speaker 1: guys how to stretch, how to walk, how to talk,

1894
01:24:35,640 --> 01:24:39,719
Speaker 1: how to sleep, how to be a professional National Football

1895
01:24:39,960 --> 01:24:43,320
Speaker 1: League player. It's a business. This is your job now,

1896
01:24:43,439 --> 01:24:46,720
Speaker 1: this is what you do. The receiver position. You still

1897
01:24:46,800 --> 01:24:50,320
Speaker 1: have me and Go and Adam Thielen, Terrace, Marshall and Leget.

1898
01:24:50,880 --> 01:24:52,760
Speaker 1: We got to just see what they're gonna be there.

1899
01:24:52,800 --> 01:24:55,639
Speaker 1: But you mentioned the coach that was the offensive coordinated

1900
01:24:55,680 --> 01:24:58,040
Speaker 1: from the Bucks that came over and we saw what

1901
01:24:58,120 --> 01:24:59,840
Speaker 1: he did to Baker, and let's not act like that.

1902
01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:02,879
Speaker 1: We all love Baker. People been crapping on Baker Mayfield

1903
01:25:03,160 --> 01:25:05,479
Speaker 1: for the last four or five years. He turned this

1904
01:25:05,560 --> 01:25:07,720
Speaker 1: guy around and got him one hundred million dollar check

1905
01:25:08,160 --> 01:25:09,640
Speaker 1: right now is what he's gonna make there now. I

1906
01:25:09,680 --> 01:25:11,479
Speaker 1: don't know what they'll do when this guy leaves. I'm

1907
01:25:11,520 --> 01:25:14,400
Speaker 1: a big proponent that when your coordinator leaves is going

1908
01:25:14,479 --> 01:25:16,800
Speaker 1: to affect one side of the ball that he was

1909
01:25:16,880 --> 01:25:19,479
Speaker 1: coordinating on. We see time and Tom again. But then

1910
01:25:19,520 --> 01:25:26,519
Speaker 1: I go to the schedule New Orleans Chargers, Raiders, Cincy, Chicago, Atlanta, Washington, Denver.

1911
01:25:27,080 --> 01:25:30,320
Speaker 1: Hey what I Hey, that's why I herding football to me.

1912
01:25:30,920 --> 01:25:33,519
Speaker 1: If Bryce takes that step, which we know he can.

1913
01:25:33,680 --> 01:25:36,080
Speaker 1: Like I said, I've seen the kid since he was

1914
01:25:36,200 --> 01:25:40,680
Speaker 1: fifteen years old. I called back to back state championships

1915
01:25:40,840 --> 01:25:43,599
Speaker 1: for this kid to see. I have Southern Sectional against Bosco.

1916
01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:46,360
Speaker 1: I've seen him with my own eyes at Alabama. Like

1917
01:25:46,479 --> 01:25:49,799
Speaker 1: you said, he was the number one pick for a reason.

1918
01:25:50,400 --> 01:25:53,439
Speaker 1: And I think that this defense, I like where you're

1919
01:25:53,560 --> 01:25:55,960
Speaker 1: I like where you're at with this man. This defense,

1920
01:25:56,040 --> 01:25:58,160
Speaker 1: like I said, Ring, they give up less than two

1921
01:25:58,240 --> 01:26:01,479
Speaker 1: hundred yards passing again, so you can't move the ball

1922
01:26:01,560 --> 01:26:03,960
Speaker 1: against him. You can't run against him. And if you

1923
01:26:04,040 --> 01:26:06,160
Speaker 1: could get the offense to just how many times they

1924
01:26:06,200 --> 01:26:09,280
Speaker 1: lose last year nineteen sixteen or you know, twenty to

1925
01:26:09,360 --> 01:26:14,840
Speaker 1: cent scoring offense. They had zero offense last year. And

1926
01:26:14,960 --> 01:26:19,439
Speaker 1: the line last point was horrific. That kid was running

1927
01:26:19,960 --> 01:26:24,000
Speaker 1: for his life. That backfoot hits. He's already got to

1928
01:26:24,040 --> 01:26:26,000
Speaker 1: pull the ball down and get out of the way.

1929
01:26:26,320 --> 01:26:28,439
Speaker 1: Yah he's small. Yeah, you're small. If you're gonna get

1930
01:26:28,560 --> 01:26:31,000
Speaker 1: killed like that, if you're not gonna protect the kid, Yeah,

1931
01:26:31,040 --> 01:26:33,439
Speaker 1: he's gonna get killed. And you can say, oh, he's small,

1932
01:26:34,040 --> 01:26:36,880
Speaker 1: also to a quick sidebar. CJ. Stroud was bigger. He

1933
01:26:36,960 --> 01:26:39,519
Speaker 1: also missed two games for concussion. So kill me with

1934
01:26:39,640 --> 01:26:43,240
Speaker 1: the small crap. Okay, it's candle line, protect the front bo.

1935
01:26:43,520 --> 01:26:47,080
Speaker 1: You know me? I make out landish you know picks

1936
01:26:47,200 --> 01:26:49,840
Speaker 1: because I don't like low hanging fruit. I love this, dude,

1937
01:26:49,920 --> 01:26:53,360
Speaker 1: I really do. You might be onto something. This division

1938
01:26:53,880 --> 01:26:55,960
Speaker 1: is gonna be bad. We don't know what's up in

1939
01:26:56,000 --> 01:26:58,960
Speaker 1: Atlanta right If Kurt's not ready, then you're going to

1940
01:26:59,000 --> 01:27:01,400
Speaker 1: a rookie quarterback. You're going You're going with You're going

1941
01:27:01,479 --> 01:27:04,599
Speaker 1: with the kid out of Washington as a rooky quarterback

1942
01:27:04,840 --> 01:27:07,479
Speaker 1: do you have the Saints. No one likes Allen. They've

1943
01:27:07,479 --> 01:27:10,040
Speaker 1: been crapping on Derek Carr's whole career. So don't try

1944
01:27:10,120 --> 01:27:13,120
Speaker 1: to feed me until this team could be a hey man.

1945
01:27:13,439 --> 01:27:14,880
Speaker 1: That's why I wanted to get back to this because,

1946
01:27:14,920 --> 01:27:16,639
Speaker 1: as you guys were talking, I just want to pull

1947
01:27:16,720 --> 01:27:18,040
Speaker 1: up some numbers and look them like, you know what

1948
01:27:18,160 --> 01:27:20,680
Speaker 1: I forgot? This defense was pretty damn good last year.

1949
01:27:20,920 --> 01:27:23,360
Speaker 1: They didn't get blown out a lot. They really were

1950
01:27:23,400 --> 01:27:27,160
Speaker 1: competing with some teams. This visions crap by new offensive

1951
01:27:27,160 --> 01:27:28,679
Speaker 1: minor head coach. I like it, buddy.

1952
01:27:28,760 --> 01:27:32,840
Speaker 2: By the way, you talk about a statistical anomaly, you

1953
01:27:32,920 --> 01:27:36,439
Speaker 2: mentioned accurately that in terms of yards giving up, this

1954
01:27:36,560 --> 01:27:38,160
Speaker 2: is the fourth best defense in the league.

1955
01:27:38,160 --> 01:27:40,120
Speaker 3: They were twenty ninth in the league in scoring defense.

1956
01:27:40,240 --> 01:27:41,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, so what does that tell you, Well, when your

1957
01:27:41,800 --> 01:27:43,960
Speaker 2: offense is not moving ball, it's about field position.

1958
01:27:44,439 --> 01:27:47,719
Speaker 3: That means that teams were moving the ball on short fields.

1959
01:27:47,880 --> 01:27:49,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, so they weren't getting a lot of yards, but

1960
01:27:49,840 --> 01:27:52,240
Speaker 2: they still were putting up a lot of points defensively.

1961
01:27:52,960 --> 01:27:54,840
Speaker 2: This is I mean, they were thirty second in the

1962
01:27:54,920 --> 01:27:57,840
Speaker 2: league in yards, dead last, thirty first in points next

1963
01:27:57,880 --> 01:27:58,320
Speaker 2: to last.

1964
01:27:58,680 --> 01:28:00,479
Speaker 1: This is bad. Here's the thing about bright Young. Eight

1965
01:28:00,600 --> 01:28:02,960
Speaker 1: defenses also wear down to Steve, Like, it's not just

1966
01:28:03,040 --> 01:28:05,840
Speaker 1: short feels you by week nine when you know your

1967
01:28:05,880 --> 01:28:09,120
Speaker 1: offense can't score. By week eight, Steve, these guys are

1968
01:28:09,160 --> 01:28:10,720
Speaker 1: going out like, all right, guys, we got to try

1969
01:28:10,760 --> 01:28:13,320
Speaker 1: to hold him under seventeen to have a shot today.

1970
01:28:13,560 --> 01:28:16,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, the numbers could be deceiving. Here's the thing about

1971
01:28:16,640 --> 01:28:20,040
Speaker 3: the the stature of Bryce Young. This is what always

1972
01:28:20,080 --> 01:28:20,439
Speaker 3: gets to me.

1973
01:28:20,760 --> 01:28:23,320
Speaker 2: When Doug Flutie was winding up his career with the

1974
01:28:23,439 --> 01:28:27,120
Speaker 2: San Diego Chargers and he started a full season when

1975
01:28:27,640 --> 01:28:31,479
Speaker 2: uh Drew Brees was a rookie, and I remember his

1976
01:28:31,600 --> 01:28:33,120
Speaker 2: first time I really had got a chance to know

1977
01:28:33,240 --> 01:28:37,320
Speaker 2: this guy, Doug Flutie. And again I'm I am five eleven,

1978
01:28:37,439 --> 01:28:40,760
Speaker 2: all right, and I'm looking at this guy like, how

1979
01:28:40,880 --> 01:28:41,760
Speaker 2: tall are you really?

1980
01:28:41,840 --> 01:28:42,040
Speaker 6: Down?

1981
01:28:43,600 --> 01:28:49,360
Speaker 3: In reality he is around five eight, And I asked

1982
01:28:49,439 --> 01:28:52,240
Speaker 3: him just flat out, no matter what kind of arm

1983
01:28:52,280 --> 01:28:54,080
Speaker 3: strength he has, and he had great arm strength, and

1984
01:28:54,120 --> 01:28:57,400
Speaker 3: I said, how do you see anything? I mean, when

1985
01:28:57,439 --> 01:28:59,559
Speaker 3: you got lineman in front of you, there's six five

1986
01:28:59,600 --> 01:29:02,439
Speaker 3: and they're up, how do you actually see? And he goes,

1987
01:29:02,560 --> 01:29:05,840
Speaker 3: here's what you have to understand, I've always been this hype.

1988
01:29:06,680 --> 01:29:08,800
Speaker 3: So from the time I was in high school through

1989
01:29:08,920 --> 01:29:12,040
Speaker 3: college and the pros, my perspective on the field has

1990
01:29:12,080 --> 01:29:15,000
Speaker 3: never changed. It's the same thing with Bryce Young. You say, well,

1991
01:29:15,040 --> 01:29:17,479
Speaker 3: how can he see anything? Well, I got news for you.

1992
01:29:17,720 --> 01:29:18,200
Speaker 1: Do you think the.

1993
01:29:18,200 --> 01:29:21,360
Speaker 2: Offensive lineman and defensive lineman and the SEC were smaller

1994
01:29:21,479 --> 01:29:22,519
Speaker 2: than they are in the NFL.

1995
01:29:22,680 --> 01:29:23,880
Speaker 1: No, they're the same guys.

1996
01:29:24,560 --> 01:29:27,639
Speaker 3: So his perspective, even going back to his high school days,

1997
01:29:27,960 --> 01:29:29,000
Speaker 3: has never changed.

1998
01:29:29,640 --> 01:29:30,960
Speaker 1: But you got to protect him.

1999
01:29:31,160 --> 01:29:33,599
Speaker 3: You got to give him an opportunity as he got

2020
01:30:18,200 --> 01:30:20,439
Speaker 1: And I went both, Like I said, I break this

2021
01:30:20,560 --> 01:30:21,880
Speaker 1: down and I look at it. You can look at

2022
01:30:21,920 --> 01:30:25,160
Speaker 1: the numbers, like I said, fourth ranked defense, last ranked offense.

2023
01:30:25,240 --> 01:30:28,320
Speaker 1: That you gotta protect guys, you gotta put guys around.

2024
01:30:28,479 --> 01:30:30,680
Speaker 1: Football is such a great sport. We're just seeing in

2025
01:30:30,720 --> 01:30:32,880
Speaker 1: the receiver. As you watch it, you'll you'll you'll see

2026
01:30:33,320 --> 01:30:35,840
Speaker 1: San Francisco. You know what makes them so great? And

2027
01:30:35,920 --> 01:30:38,040
Speaker 1: number one, you know how Purty can come in and

2028
01:30:38,120 --> 01:30:40,559
Speaker 1: be successful. Well, it starts with an all world left

2029
01:30:40,600 --> 01:30:42,160
Speaker 1: tackle and Trent Williams.

2030
01:30:42,240 --> 01:30:45,000
Speaker 3: Okay, he has the best skill set players in the league.

2031
01:30:45,000 --> 01:30:46,720
Speaker 1: He has the best. Think about it, he's got the

2032
01:30:46,800 --> 01:30:50,360
Speaker 1: best running back in football. Yes, he has, uh what

2033
01:30:50,560 --> 01:30:53,639
Speaker 1: the second best tight end in football because because Kelsey

2034
01:30:53,840 --> 01:30:56,880
Speaker 1: would be one. Yeah, and I think for for anybody's money,

2035
01:30:56,880 --> 01:30:59,760
Speaker 1: you would probably say kills number two, er three, he's

2036
01:30:59,840 --> 01:31:04,719
Speaker 1: right there right, Okay, the best offensive of versatile weapon

2037
01:31:04,800 --> 01:31:08,160
Speaker 1: and even ball and like go to the defensive side,

2038
01:31:08,320 --> 01:31:10,080
Speaker 1: by the way, let's not leave. Ay you got it?

2039
01:31:10,240 --> 01:31:13,200
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, who wants to buy away? Is his favorite receiver?

2040
01:31:13,439 --> 01:31:15,160
Speaker 1: Do you think he'll be gone by the trade deadline

2041
01:31:15,200 --> 01:31:16,760
Speaker 1: this year? I heard a very powerful name in this

2042
01:31:16,880 --> 01:31:19,320
Speaker 1: business say that about three weeks ago, say he's gone

2043
01:31:19,360 --> 01:31:20,760
Speaker 1: by the trade deadline. They're not gonna get it.

2044
01:31:20,760 --> 01:31:23,080
Speaker 3: Here's the problem teams like the forty nine ers have.

2045
01:31:23,240 --> 01:31:25,320
Speaker 2: This is what happened to the Rams. Remember the Rams

2046
01:31:25,439 --> 01:31:29,760
Speaker 2: sold out? Yeah, they sold out to win a Super

2047
01:31:29,800 --> 01:31:32,760
Speaker 2: Bowl chips in and they did it. But then you

2048
01:31:32,840 --> 01:31:36,280
Speaker 2: gotta you gotta start paying people, and the cap does

2049
01:31:36,400 --> 01:31:38,680
Speaker 2: not sweat them on to doing New England Patriots at

2050
01:31:38,680 --> 01:31:41,160
Speaker 2: the end, they were able to get that last run

2051
01:31:41,520 --> 01:31:44,240
Speaker 2: winning three super Bowls, four super Bowls in five years.

2052
01:31:45,479 --> 01:31:47,639
Speaker 2: And you can only kick the can down the road

2053
01:31:47,720 --> 01:31:50,120
Speaker 2: so many times, and then eventually you got to pay.

2054
01:31:50,960 --> 01:31:53,360
Speaker 2: And that's where the forty nine ers are facing. Not

2055
01:31:53,479 --> 01:31:55,640
Speaker 2: everybody's gonna get paid. Somebody has to go.

2056
01:31:55,800 --> 01:31:57,720
Speaker 1: They like this Jinnin's kid, I feel like I feel

2057
01:31:57,840 --> 01:32:00,840
Speaker 1: I feel like I you fifth fifty one of to

2058
01:32:00,960 --> 01:32:03,639
Speaker 1: do is going to get done? Canny get done? Yes,

2059
01:32:04,080 --> 01:32:06,920
Speaker 1: But is it going to get done if they feel

2060
01:32:07,080 --> 01:32:11,000
Speaker 1: like this Jennings Kid and see power minds like offensive

2061
01:32:11,040 --> 01:32:15,479
Speaker 1: whiz guys like Shanahan, Lafleur, McDaniel, that McVeigh, that Tree.

2062
01:32:15,920 --> 01:32:18,120
Speaker 1: They think, hey, we could plug guys.

2063
01:32:18,200 --> 01:32:20,720
Speaker 3: Yeah you need dee Bo, Yeah you need you need

2064
01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:21,799
Speaker 3: Christian McCaffrey.

2065
01:32:21,880 --> 01:32:24,960
Speaker 1: I can't replace those guys, but I can replace what

2066
01:32:25,160 --> 01:32:27,120
Speaker 1: I you does. He's a good he's a good receiver.

2067
01:32:27,400 --> 01:32:28,760
Speaker 1: I was one of those, but I don't want to

2068
01:32:28,880 --> 01:32:30,439
Speaker 1: pay him thirty million.

2069
01:32:30,600 --> 01:32:32,519
Speaker 2: I was one of those guys that when the Chiefs

2070
01:32:32,560 --> 01:32:35,960
Speaker 2: decided not to pay Tyreek Hill, I said, they're done

2071
01:32:36,640 --> 01:32:39,160
Speaker 2: because that was the beauty of trying to trying to

2072
01:32:39,240 --> 01:32:42,519
Speaker 2: defend a team that's got Kelsey and h'll pick your poison. Yeah,

2073
01:32:42,760 --> 01:32:45,840
Speaker 2: And I thought, you're not gonna replace tyreek Hill. There's

2074
01:32:45,880 --> 01:32:48,400
Speaker 2: no replacement for Tyreek Hill. This is going to be

2075
01:32:48,479 --> 01:32:51,040
Speaker 2: a come down. Obviously it wasn't.

2076
01:32:51,040 --> 01:32:54,120
Speaker 1: You got Andy Reid though. That's that's he's the difference.

2077
01:32:54,200 --> 01:32:56,560
Speaker 1: He's the You also have Patrick Mahomes. Yeah, that's what

2078
01:32:56,600 --> 01:32:56,920
Speaker 1: I'm saying.

2079
01:32:58,200 --> 01:33:01,000
Speaker 3: Tom Brady was the same way. Of course, you could

2080
01:33:01,120 --> 01:33:03,679
Speaker 3: get rid of guys, bring guys in, and Brady would

2081
01:33:03,720 --> 01:33:05,800
Speaker 3: find a way to make that guys start big Ben

2082
01:33:06,320 --> 01:33:07,080
Speaker 3: that era.

2083
01:33:07,160 --> 01:33:09,479
Speaker 1: Like you said, if you I'm a firm Stephen with Young,

2084
01:33:09,520 --> 01:33:11,280
Speaker 1: I'm a firm believing this. If you have if you

2085
01:33:11,400 --> 01:33:14,920
Speaker 1: have a quarterback like a guy, you gotta shot every

2086
01:33:15,080 --> 01:33:19,280
Speaker 1: damn Sunday. If you don't have one, you have zero shot.

2087
01:33:19,560 --> 01:33:21,599
Speaker 1: I don't care what weapons you got. I don't care

2088
01:33:21,640 --> 01:33:23,640
Speaker 1: what kind of defense you got. If you don't have

2089
01:33:23,720 --> 01:33:26,519
Speaker 1: a guide to quarterback position, you got no shot. You

2090
01:33:26,560 --> 01:33:28,640
Speaker 1: got Brady, you got Mahomes, you got Peyton, you got

2091
01:33:28,680 --> 01:33:30,840
Speaker 1: big Bin over the last twenty years in his league.

2092
01:33:31,240 --> 01:33:32,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, those are the teams that are gonna that are

2093
01:33:32,800 --> 01:33:34,679

Speaker 3: One his name is Mahomes.

2097
01:33:42,280 --> 01:33:44,800
Speaker 2: If the idea is winning super bowls, there's only three

2098
01:33:44,880 --> 01:33:47,800
Speaker 2: other active quarterbacks that have won a Super Bowl. Who

2121
01:35:09,240 --> 01:35:14,120
Speaker 2: MLB Insider, the Great John Paul Morosi, So JP, I

2122
01:35:14,280 --> 01:35:17,679
Speaker 2: wanted to talk about Skeens starting this All Star Game

2123
01:35:18,320 --> 01:35:21,040
Speaker 2: eleven starts into his major League baseball career.

2124
01:35:21,080 --> 01:35:23,840
Speaker 3: And I'm going to go back to nineteen seventy six.

2125
01:35:24,880 --> 01:35:27,080
Speaker 2: I was eighteen years old, was here, I graduated at

2126
01:35:27,160 --> 01:35:29,200
Speaker 2: high school in the talk of baseball. Was a rookie

2127
01:35:29,280 --> 01:35:32,000
Speaker 2: with the Detroit Tigers named Mark the Bird Fedric So

2128
01:35:32,080 --> 01:35:32,479
Speaker 2: I had to.

2129
01:35:32,479 --> 01:35:33,920
Speaker 1: Look it up to make sure I was right, and

2130
01:35:34,000 --> 01:35:34,599
Speaker 1: I was right.

2131
01:35:35,240 --> 01:35:38,320
Speaker 2: After two very brief relief appearances, they put him in

2132
01:35:38,400 --> 01:35:42,720
Speaker 2: the rotation and he started exactly eleven games and was

2133
01:35:42,800 --> 01:35:46,080
Speaker 2: named the starting pitcher for the American League All Star Team,

2134
01:35:46,400 --> 01:35:49,080
Speaker 2: the exact same eleven starts of Paul Skeins that had.

2135
01:35:49,280 --> 01:35:52,000
Speaker 3: But here's the difference. So Skeen's is six and zero,

2136
01:35:52,320 --> 01:35:55,639
Speaker 3: zero complete games. The Bird he was nine and two

2137
01:35:55,840 --> 01:36:01,080
Speaker 3: with ten complete games, ten in his first eleven starts.

2138
01:36:01,479 --> 01:36:03,639
Speaker 2: Of course, he also completed thirty one of his first

2139
01:36:03,680 --> 01:36:06,240
Speaker 2: forty starts and then had armed problems and that was

2140
01:36:06,280 --> 01:36:07,679
Speaker 2: the end of Marked the Bird Fedrich.

2141
01:36:07,800 --> 01:36:09,840
Speaker 3: But I know what you talk about, like.

2142
01:36:09,880 --> 01:36:12,840
Speaker 2: We've never seen anything like this before, and the fact

2143
01:36:12,920 --> 01:36:16,040
Speaker 2: is we have is just that it happened so long ago.

2144
01:36:16,120 --> 01:36:18,760
Speaker 2: Most people don't remember. I know you do because you're

2145
01:36:18,800 --> 01:36:21,720
Speaker 2: a Michigan native, a Tigers fan. You know about Mark

2146
01:36:21,760 --> 01:36:23,519
Speaker 2: the Bird Fedrich. But I just wanted to put it

2147
01:36:23,560 --> 01:36:25,800
Speaker 2: out there that people say, well, you've never seen this.

2148
01:36:25,920 --> 01:36:28,280
Speaker 2: Eleven starts the news major League grist starting an All

2149
01:36:28,320 --> 01:36:30,160

2151
01:36:32,760 --> 01:36:33,280
Speaker 1: seventy six.

2152
01:36:33,640 --> 01:36:36,280
Speaker 6: Well that's a great point, Steve and VJ. Good afternoon

2153
01:36:36,320 --> 01:36:39,320
Speaker 6: as well. It is interesting when you think about the

2154
01:36:39,479 --> 01:36:42,880
Speaker 6: history of the game that was almost fifty years ago.

2155
01:36:43,600 --> 01:36:46,680
Speaker 6: And you're right what I would say too, as we

2156
01:36:46,800 --> 01:36:51,360
Speaker 6: discussed Fidrich's career, how it unfolded, the number of complete games. Now,

2157
01:36:51,439 --> 01:36:55,200
Speaker 6: he wasn't throwing nearly as hard as schemes does, which

2158
01:36:55,240 --> 01:36:58,080
Speaker 6: I think is part of it. And again the overall

2159
01:36:58,160 --> 01:37:04,080
Speaker 6: conversation about health. There's no question that the demands of

2160
01:37:04,240 --> 01:37:08,280
Speaker 6: the day. And think about this, some of the Tigers'

2161
01:37:08,320 --> 01:37:12,280
Speaker 6: decisions back then were getting made based on can we

2162
01:37:12,439 --> 01:37:16,160
Speaker 6: shorten up the bird's rest so that way he pitches

2163
01:37:16,360 --> 01:37:19,720
Speaker 6: at home as often as possibly could drive the gate

2164
01:37:20,160 --> 01:37:24,840
Speaker 6: and get bigger and bigger attendance, greater television ratings. They

2165
01:37:24,880 --> 01:37:27,160
Speaker 6: were lining them up to see there was that famous

2166
01:37:27,200 --> 01:37:29,840
Speaker 6: gaming pitched against the Yankees on Monday Night Baseball and

2167
01:37:29,960 --> 01:37:32,720
Speaker 6: ABC which the ratings so that were through the roof,

2168
01:37:32,800 --> 01:37:36,000
Speaker 6: so that there are a lot of commercial reasons why

2169
01:37:36,640 --> 01:37:40,320
Speaker 6: Fidrich's schedule was set the way it was, and it

2170
01:37:40,439 --> 01:37:43,640
Speaker 6: was certainly not to optimize his health. It was to

2171
01:37:43,760 --> 01:37:47,320
Speaker 6: optimize the revenues of the industry, the Tigers, the networks,

2172
01:37:47,360 --> 01:37:53,000
Speaker 6: et cetera. But where schemes gets interesting is exactly the

2173
01:37:53,080 --> 01:37:56,600
Speaker 6: contrast that you're making. Fidrich didn't throw as hard, but

2174
01:37:56,760 --> 01:38:00,679
Speaker 6: was pitching more often, and he broke down Schemes throws

2175
01:38:00,840 --> 01:38:03,759
Speaker 6: a lot harder. They're being more careful with his innings,

2176
01:38:04,080 --> 01:38:07,200
Speaker 6: as we saw with the no hitter, And now the

2177
01:38:07,360 --> 01:38:11,000
Speaker 6: question is will this work? The answer I have is

2178
01:38:11,600 --> 01:38:15,839
Speaker 6: I have no idea, because no one does if we acknowledge.

2179
01:38:15,840 --> 01:38:18,280
Speaker 6: If you look at the thirty baseball teams and you

2180
01:38:18,400 --> 01:38:21,439
Speaker 6: were to ask, hey, what team probably spends the most

2181
01:38:21,560 --> 01:38:25,439
Speaker 6: money on having the smartest front office possible, with the

2182
01:38:25,600 --> 01:38:29,040
Speaker 6: wisest research and development, all the state of the art

2183
01:38:29,600 --> 01:38:33,120
Speaker 6: ability to analyze pitch your health, You'd probably say the

2184
01:38:33,160 --> 01:38:36,679
Speaker 6: Los Angeles Dodgers. Well, that team right now has about

2185
01:38:36,720 --> 01:38:39,439
Speaker 6: as much pitching on the injured list in terms of

2186
01:38:39,640 --> 01:38:43,479
Speaker 6: dollars spent and the amount of money they're spending on

2187
01:38:43,640 --> 01:38:46,400
Speaker 6: pitchers who are not pitching right now. It is a

2188
01:38:46,640 --> 01:38:50,720
Speaker 6: staggering sum of money. And the conclusion to draw from

2189
01:38:50,760 --> 01:38:54,439
Speaker 6: that is not that the Dodgers are clueless when it

2190
01:38:54,520 --> 01:38:57,800
Speaker 6: comes to keeping pitchers healthy. It's that we are all

2191
01:38:58,120 --> 01:39:01,760
Speaker 6: varying degrees of clueless. We're just hoping that we land

2192
01:39:01,840 --> 01:39:05,120
Speaker 6: on the right solution. Because, in no way, shape or form,

2193
01:39:05,479 --> 01:39:09,400
Speaker 6: was anybody saying, well, by the All Star break glass

2194
01:39:09,600 --> 01:39:12,640
Speaker 6: now and Yamamoto and Bobby Miller, by the way, is

2195
01:39:12,680 --> 01:39:14,320
Speaker 6: going to be in the minor leagues, and Beeler is

2196
01:39:14,360 --> 01:39:17,000
Speaker 6: going to be struggling on the injured list, and Kershaw

2197
01:39:17,000 --> 01:39:19,080
Speaker 6: wouldn't have pitched the game for the Dodgers yet, and

2198
01:39:19,240 --> 01:39:22,639
Speaker 6: that you've got guys like Cole Reagan's and Seth Lugo

2199
01:39:23,360 --> 01:39:25,800
Speaker 6: in the All Star Game and show to Imanaga in

2200
01:39:25,880 --> 01:39:28,519
Speaker 6: the All Star Game. So we're all trying to figure

2201
01:39:28,560 --> 01:39:31,600
Speaker 6: this out. And anybody that calls up the show or

2202
01:39:31,680 --> 01:39:33,280
Speaker 6: any show in the country, it says, hey, I've got

2203
01:39:33,360 --> 01:39:36,920
Speaker 6: to figure it out how to keep everybody healthy. I

2204
01:39:37,600 --> 01:39:40,040
Speaker 6: have a great deal of issues with that statement.

2205
01:39:40,560 --> 01:39:42,600
Speaker 1: John porm Rosey VJ. Brend A Husky here, great to

2206
01:39:42,680 --> 01:39:45,280
Speaker 1: be talking some good old baseball with you, my man,

2207
01:39:45,360 --> 01:39:47,160
Speaker 1: and just really quick. On the Dodgers, I say all

2208
01:39:47,160 --> 01:39:48,960
Speaker 1: the time in over the last three or four weeks

2209
01:39:48,960 --> 01:39:50,760
Speaker 1: they make they're spending way too much money to have

2210
01:39:50,840 --> 01:39:53,439
Speaker 1: the fifth best record in the majors right now, and

2211
01:39:53,479 --> 01:39:55,960
Speaker 1: they don't even look like the best team in the NL.

2212
01:39:56,160 --> 01:39:58,280
Speaker 1: I want to spin to the All Star Game coming

2213
01:39:58,360 --> 01:40:01,679
Speaker 1: up though, thirty seven new player and my part Martin

2214
01:40:01,720 --> 01:40:03,160
Speaker 1: and I talk on the show all the time about

2215
01:40:03,200 --> 01:40:06,320
Speaker 1: the rule changes and speeding the game up, and I

2216
01:40:06,400 --> 01:40:09,240
Speaker 1: loved it. I balked at it before, but once I

2217
01:40:09,320 --> 01:40:11,040
Speaker 1: started to watch, I said, you know what a two

2218
01:40:11,080 --> 01:40:13,320
Speaker 1: and a half hours, two hours and twenty five minutes. Hey,

2219
01:40:13,400 --> 01:40:15,800
Speaker 1: this is what I'm talking about. I like this, But

2220
01:40:16,120 --> 01:40:19,880
Speaker 1: the All Star Games sell us on why this could

2221
01:40:19,920 --> 01:40:23,200
Speaker 1: be a good thing currently or moving forward with so

2222
01:40:23,560 --> 01:40:27,240
Speaker 1: many new players, with the casual you talk about schemes.

2223
01:40:27,360 --> 01:40:29,400
Speaker 1: I need him against I needed him to start because

2224
01:40:29,400 --> 01:40:31,280
Speaker 1: I need him against Judge right in the first inning.

2225
01:40:31,560 --> 01:40:33,640
Speaker 1: Give me the best guys that you're telling me is

2226
01:40:33,680 --> 01:40:36,360
Speaker 1: the best this year against the best guys at least

2227
01:40:36,360 --> 01:40:38,640
Speaker 1: for the first two or three innings. But with the

2228
01:40:38,720 --> 01:40:42,760
Speaker 1: thirty seven new guys currently moving forwards. This is a

2229
01:40:42,840 --> 01:40:45,000
Speaker 1: good thing. Doesn't matter is going to stay the same?

2230
01:40:45,240 --> 01:40:46,880
Speaker 1: Where do you kind of fall on this one? John?

2231
01:40:47,600 --> 01:40:49,479
Speaker 6: I love it. I actually think VJ. The game is

2232
01:40:49,520 --> 01:40:50,360
Speaker 6: in a really good spot.

2233
01:40:50,560 --> 01:40:51,040
Speaker 1: I really do.

2234
01:40:51,320 --> 01:40:54,400
Speaker 6: And yes, as I mentioned a moment ago, injuries and

2235
01:40:54,479 --> 01:40:56,960
Speaker 6: picture health, they're a topic now and they have been

2236
01:40:57,040 --> 01:40:59,559
Speaker 6: for years. But I think in terms of the product

2237
01:40:59,640 --> 01:41:02,400
Speaker 6: that we see at the ballpark, I know, I'm really

2238
01:41:02,479 --> 01:41:04,320
Speaker 6: fortunate in my job. I get a chance to see

2239
01:41:04,360 --> 01:41:07,400
Speaker 6: games all around the country on a weekly basis and

2240
01:41:07,560 --> 01:41:10,639
Speaker 6: to experience different fan bases. And I've got to say,

2241
01:41:10,760 --> 01:41:14,200
Speaker 6: the number of really good baseball games and we've been

2242
01:41:14,240 --> 01:41:17,320
Speaker 6: broadcasting this season on MLB Network, I think it's the

2243
01:41:17,360 --> 01:41:20,040
Speaker 6: best group of games we've ever had, and it's because

2244
01:41:20,640 --> 01:41:24,439
Speaker 6: the games have pace and athleticism to them. We're seeing

2245
01:41:24,560 --> 01:41:27,920
Speaker 6: new stars emerging. Gunner Henderson what a star, and I

2246
01:41:28,040 --> 01:41:31,400
Speaker 6: hope that the casual baseball fan gets a chance to

2247
01:41:31,439 --> 01:41:35,799
Speaker 6: watch Gunner play on Tuesday. Bobby Witt Junior, same story.

2248
01:41:36,120 --> 01:41:37,960
Speaker 6: I think that you see as well some of the

2249
01:41:38,000 --> 01:41:41,080
Speaker 6: next generation of players. I love Jaren Duran with the

2250
01:41:41,120 --> 01:41:43,799
Speaker 6: Boston Red Sox. He's a first time All Star. Riley

2251
01:41:43,880 --> 01:41:47,400
Speaker 6: Green first time All Star, you're gonna chesse future Hall

2252
01:41:47,400 --> 01:41:49,760
Speaker 6: of famers like Savado. Perez is still in the game

2253
01:41:49,840 --> 01:41:52,920
Speaker 6: even as an ascended young catcher, and Atley Rutchman is

2254
01:41:53,000 --> 01:41:55,240
Speaker 6: now stepping to the forefront. And one of my favorite

2255
01:41:55,280 --> 01:41:59,719
Speaker 6: players in the game, Stephen Kwan batting three point fifty.

2256
01:42:00,600 --> 01:42:04,519
Speaker 6: He just does work. He is our modern version. He's

2257
01:42:04,560 --> 01:42:08,160
Speaker 6: at least having the same philosophy as the great Tony

2258
01:42:08,240 --> 01:42:11,800
Speaker 6: gwyn He's the modern day heir to what Tony Gwinn

2259
01:42:12,280 --> 01:42:13,560
Speaker 6: was able to do. I'm not say he's gonna have

2260
01:42:13,600 --> 01:42:16,160
Speaker 6: the same career as Gwinn, but it's that same philosophy.

2261
01:42:16,400 --> 01:42:18,280
Speaker 6: When you get a chance to watch what he's doing,

2262
01:42:18,720 --> 01:42:21,320
Speaker 6: it is a sight to behold. So I think we

2263
01:42:21,760 --> 01:42:23,920
Speaker 6: are blessed right now with a tremendous amount of young

2264
01:42:24,000 --> 01:42:26,120
Speaker 6: talent in the game. Yes, a lot of it's on

2265
01:42:26,200 --> 01:42:28,639
Speaker 6: the mound, but I just think this generation of position players,

2266
01:42:28,840 --> 01:42:31,120
Speaker 6: who by the way, have been taught dj to be

2267
01:42:31,360 --> 01:42:34,280
Speaker 6: more athletic because it's a more athletic game. Now, there's

2268
01:42:34,360 --> 01:42:37,719
Speaker 6: less standing around, there's more base running. All these elements

2269
01:42:37,760 --> 01:42:41,120
Speaker 6: I think have put players like Steven Kwan more into

2270
01:42:41,160 --> 01:42:43,680
Speaker 6: the conversation of being people that we really get to

2271
01:42:43,960 --> 01:42:46,240
Speaker 6: enjoy watching work on their craft.

2272
01:42:46,479 --> 01:42:49,479
Speaker 2: All Right, I want you on the record as we

2273
01:42:49,560 --> 01:42:52,360
Speaker 2: get into the All Star break, tell us right now, JP,

2274
01:42:53,240 --> 01:42:56,320
Speaker 2: which team has been the biggest surprise in a positive

2275
01:42:56,439 --> 01:43:00,879
Speaker 2: sense for you and the biggest surprise in a negative

2276
01:43:00,960 --> 01:43:03,360
Speaker 2: sense for you going into the All Star break.

2277
01:43:03,920 --> 01:43:06,800
Speaker 6: Well, it's steeling a little bit like twenty fourteen and

2278
01:43:06,880 --> 01:43:10,040
Speaker 6: twenty fifteen all over again because the Kansas City Royals

2279
01:43:10,080 --> 01:43:13,040
Speaker 6: have put themselves right back into the playoff conversation. I

2280
01:43:13,120 --> 01:43:16,200
Speaker 6: know they've been a little bit slow entering the break,

2281
01:43:16,560 --> 01:43:20,000
Speaker 6: but with this young talent. I mentioned Bobbywood, Junior, Cole Reagan,

2282
01:43:20,080 --> 01:43:22,519
Speaker 6: Seth Lugo. They made a trade over the weekend for

2283
01:43:22,600 --> 01:43:26,080
Speaker 6: Hunter Harvey of the Washington Nationals. They're a really good team.

2284
01:43:26,120 --> 01:43:28,400
Speaker 6: They're much better than I thought they were going to be.

2285
01:43:28,439 --> 01:43:31,240
Speaker 6: I actually think the Boston Red Sox are better than

2286
01:43:31,280 --> 01:43:33,519
Speaker 6: I expected. Again, I mentioned the first time All Star

2287
01:43:33,960 --> 01:43:37,519
Speaker 6: Jaren Duran Saydan Rafaela to remember that name. He's now

2288
01:43:37,560 --> 01:43:39,840
Speaker 6: playing a lot of shortstop for them, really athletic player.

2289
01:43:40,000 --> 01:43:41,880
Speaker 6: So I think those are the teams that stand out

2290
01:43:41,880 --> 01:43:44,840
Speaker 6: to me as being the biggest surprise in the positive way.

2291
01:43:45,600 --> 01:43:48,519
Speaker 6: On the negative direction, I gotta say I did not

2292
01:43:48,960 --> 01:43:52,360
Speaker 6: expect the Chicago Cubs to be the last in the

2293
01:43:52,520 --> 01:43:55,800
Speaker 6: National League Central right now, nor did I expect the

2294
01:43:55,920 --> 01:43:59,080
Speaker 6: Toronto Blue Jays to be last in the American League East.

2295
01:43:59,120 --> 01:44:01,719
Speaker 6: And I actually thought up to Detroit Tigers. They've played

2296
01:44:01,720 --> 01:44:04,120
Speaker 6: a little bit better entering the break, but they're better

2297
01:44:04,200 --> 01:44:05,920
Speaker 6: than the fourth place team, and that, to me, has

2298
01:44:05,960 --> 01:44:08,640
Speaker 6: been one team that I've been a little bit frustrated

2299
01:44:08,640 --> 01:44:11,200
Speaker 6: with during the course of this season. So that's my

2300
01:44:11,880 --> 01:44:13,920
Speaker 6: perspectives right now in terms of teams that are up

2301
01:44:14,000 --> 01:44:16,120
Speaker 6: teams that are down. I think where I land on

2302
01:44:16,240 --> 01:44:19,160
Speaker 6: and Stephen vj is we're gonna have a very interesting

2303
01:44:19,280 --> 01:44:21,479
Speaker 6: trade deadline with a lot of movement all over the place.

2304
01:44:21,560 --> 01:44:24,120
Speaker 6: So I can't wait to see what happens. On the

2305
01:44:24,240 --> 01:44:25,320
Speaker 6: evening of July the.

2306
01:44:25,360 --> 01:44:27,920
Speaker 1: Thirtieth, Speaking of those Tigers, just tied it up three

2307
01:44:27,920 --> 01:44:30,000
Speaker 1: to three in the bottom of the ninth runners on

2308
01:44:30,120 --> 01:44:32,720
Speaker 1: first and a second against us against those Dodgers, right

2309
01:44:32,800 --> 01:44:35,800
Speaker 1: against those Dodgers, against those going on. I don't a baby,

2310
01:44:35,880 --> 01:44:38,120
Speaker 1: I don't know. We bring you on and magic happens,

2311
01:44:38,360 --> 01:44:40,559
Speaker 1: I don't know. You tell me, you know what out

2312
01:44:40,600 --> 01:44:42,439
Speaker 1: there in detail. I'm out here in La La Land.

2313
01:44:42,520 --> 01:44:44,560
Speaker 1: Man a team I want to throw out there that

2314
01:44:44,720 --> 01:44:46,760
Speaker 1: I really really liked. But I'm kind of getting little

2315
01:44:46,760 --> 01:44:47,880
Speaker 1: worried about the New York Yankees.

2316
01:44:47,880 --> 01:44:50,120
Speaker 3: And that's because and they just threw the ball away

2317
01:44:50,280 --> 01:44:52,000
Speaker 3: game over, Tigers win.

2318
01:44:52,200 --> 01:44:52,479
Speaker 4: It is.

2319
01:44:55,640 --> 01:44:57,559
Speaker 3: Bottom of the night, Betty Ramirez, what.

2320
01:44:57,640 --> 01:44:58,280
Speaker 1: Are you doing?

2321
01:44:58,439 --> 01:44:58,639
Speaker 4: Man?

2322
01:44:58,720 --> 01:45:02,080
Speaker 1: As Mario Weis said, is per feed too long? Detroit

2323
01:45:02,160 --> 01:45:06,200
Speaker 1: guys are clapping behind the glass. That was the worst ever. Yeah,

2324
01:45:06,240 --> 01:45:07,479
Speaker 1: a punting situation.

2325
01:45:07,640 --> 01:45:10,560
Speaker 3: Runners up first and second, but right back to the

2326
01:45:10,880 --> 01:45:14,320
Speaker 3: pitcher Ramiras throws throws it aways. Basically they're trying to

2327
01:45:14,360 --> 01:45:17,000
Speaker 3: get the runner third base run scores. Tigers win, a

2328
01:45:17,120 --> 01:45:17,760
Speaker 3: walk up again.

2329
01:45:17,840 --> 01:45:19,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, look at the luck. You're breaking it if you're

2330
01:45:19,520 --> 01:45:21,800
Speaker 1: in our studio right now. Just two split glasses. We

2331
01:45:21,880 --> 01:45:23,920
Speaker 1: got Monti, who was a Dodger fan on the left,

2332
01:45:24,320 --> 01:45:27,000
Speaker 1: shaking her head, and we got two Detroit guys in here.

2333
01:45:27,120 --> 01:45:27,599
Speaker 1: High five.

2334
01:45:27,680 --> 01:45:30,080
Speaker 3: By the way, that's that's a one in five road

2335
01:45:30,120 --> 01:45:31,040
Speaker 3: trip for the Dodgers.

2336
01:45:31,200 --> 01:45:32,880
Speaker 1: I mean, they're spinning out of control with all these

2337
01:45:33,000 --> 01:45:35,080
Speaker 1: boys acting like he's looking at his phone, he's all

2338
01:45:35,120 --> 01:45:38,559
Speaker 1: with just he's at this but really really quick last

2339
01:45:38,600 --> 01:45:40,680
Speaker 1: one from me, John Paul. The Yankees, you know, they

2340
01:45:40,800 --> 01:45:44,160
Speaker 1: got the bats and and uh, the pitching just seems

2341
01:45:44,200 --> 01:45:47,160
Speaker 1: to be falling apart right now. You mentioned Gunderson with

2342
01:45:47,240 --> 01:45:49,680
Speaker 1: the Orioles. I love the kid, but there's only one

2343
01:45:49,800 --> 01:45:53,720
Speaker 1: game separating them. Whoever wins this division. You got that

2344
01:45:53,800 --> 01:45:55,720
Speaker 1: team going at least to the Alcus to get to

2345
01:45:55,760 --> 01:45:58,479
Speaker 1: the World Series. Are the Yankees fu gayzy? Are they?

2346
01:45:58,520 --> 01:46:01,280
Speaker 1: Are they falling apart? With the get to stay back together?

2347
01:46:01,680 --> 01:46:03,760
Speaker 6: You know, the Yankees have some work to do VJ.

2348
01:46:04,120 --> 01:46:06,160
Speaker 6: They have got to make some moves. I don't like

2349
01:46:06,280 --> 01:46:09,599
Speaker 6: their lineup depth right now. I don't like their bullpen

2350
01:46:09,720 --> 01:46:11,840
Speaker 6: depth leading up to Clay Holmes. I think he's had

2351
01:46:11,880 --> 01:46:14,920
Speaker 6: to pitch a ton in the first half. Their rotation

2352
01:46:15,040 --> 01:46:17,920
Speaker 6: has let me down a little bit. I am not

2353
01:46:18,200 --> 01:46:22,040
Speaker 6: sold on them yet as being a postseason juggernaut, because

2354
01:46:22,479 --> 01:46:25,719
Speaker 6: here's the issue. When you're facing a team with Judge

2355
01:46:25,800 --> 01:46:29,280
Speaker 6: and Soto, you might say, and it's hard to pitch

2356
01:46:29,320 --> 01:46:32,080
Speaker 6: around both of them, but you might basically say, Okay,

2357
01:46:32,160 --> 01:46:34,160
Speaker 6: we're gonna pick one and just say, Okay, Soto's not

2358
01:46:34,160 --> 01:46:36,720
Speaker 6: gonna beat us tonight, We're just gonna anytime he's up,

2359
01:46:36,800 --> 01:46:39,320
Speaker 6: We're gonna walk them. We're gonna not get him inting

2360
01:46:39,400 --> 01:46:41,640
Speaker 6: to hit. And maybe we feel like we can we

2361
01:46:41,720 --> 01:46:44,479
Speaker 6: can attack Judge here and then maybe vice versa. But

2362
01:46:44,920 --> 01:46:49,120
Speaker 6: after the two of them, once they're done batting, who

2363
01:46:49,200 --> 01:46:51,080
Speaker 6: are you afraid of? The in the second half of

2364
01:46:51,080 --> 01:46:54,800
Speaker 6: the Yankee lineup? And I think that's where it's I

2365
01:46:55,120 --> 01:46:58,880
Speaker 6: look at the Baltimore lineup one through nine as being

2366
01:46:58,920 --> 01:47:01,760
Speaker 6: a tougher out right now, and I would even say

2367
01:47:01,840 --> 01:47:04,400
Speaker 6: that a team like Cleveland has got the better one

2368
01:47:04,439 --> 01:47:06,519
Speaker 6: through nine right now, and the New York Yankees do,

2369
01:47:06,640 --> 01:47:08,360
Speaker 6: so I am not at all sold on them. I

2370
01:47:08,400 --> 01:47:11,320
Speaker 6: think if they run up against a team like Seattle,

2371
01:47:11,640 --> 01:47:14,080
Speaker 6: they're flawed offensively. The Mariners are, at least for now

2372
01:47:14,160 --> 01:47:17,080
Speaker 6: until they make some upgrades, but their fishing is really good.

2373
01:47:17,400 --> 01:47:20,120
Speaker 6: And I just think that when you start facing the

2374
01:47:20,200 --> 01:47:22,920
Speaker 6: best of the best on the mound in October and

2375
01:47:23,040 --> 01:47:25,360
Speaker 6: you have a game plan where basically, at three o'clock

2376
01:47:25,439 --> 01:47:27,920
Speaker 6: you're saying, listen, our season's on the line. We are

2377
01:47:28,040 --> 01:47:30,640
Speaker 6: not going to let ninety nine beat us. He's not

2378
01:47:30,720 --> 01:47:33,479
Speaker 6: going to see a strike and SODA's gonna have to

2379
01:47:33,560 --> 01:47:36,080
Speaker 6: do it tonight. Whatever it might be you need more

2380
01:47:36,160 --> 01:47:38,360
Speaker 6: than two players two players in your line up to

2381
01:47:38,400 --> 01:47:41,679
Speaker 6: do that. So I'm I am concerned about the Yankees

2382
01:47:41,760 --> 01:47:43,479
Speaker 6: as a playoff team. I think as much as we

2383
01:47:43,560 --> 01:47:46,479
Speaker 6: talk about how many great teams or how the big

2384
01:47:46,560 --> 01:47:49,280
Speaker 6: market teams have spent a ton of money, they're not better.

2385
01:47:49,560 --> 01:47:52,920
Speaker 6: They are objectively in this moment, not a better postseason

2386
01:47:53,000 --> 01:47:55,760
Speaker 6: team than the Cleveland Guardians now in the National League.

2387
01:47:55,760 --> 01:47:58,000
Speaker 6: I will say this, the Phillies are better right now

2388
01:47:58,120 --> 01:48:01,240
Speaker 6: than everybody else in the ENDLT just better. And I've

2389
01:48:01,240 --> 01:48:02,800
Speaker 6: had a chance to watch them a bunch of this season.

2390
01:48:03,000 --> 01:48:04,760
Speaker 6: What a delightful team to watch it. I think we're

2391
01:48:04,800 --> 01:48:07,240
Speaker 6: gonna hear a lot from the Philadelphia Phillies in the

2392
01:48:07,280 --> 01:48:08,000
Speaker 6: month of October.

2393
01:48:08,320 --> 01:48:10,960
Speaker 2: Well, the Dodgers completed a one to five road trip

2394
01:48:11,000 --> 01:48:13,679
Speaker 2: to go into the break, so that is not voting

2395
01:48:13,760 --> 01:48:16,360
Speaker 2: well for the Dodgers, who have blested their entire starting

2396
01:48:16,479 --> 01:48:20,600
Speaker 2: rotation and back to back ninth inning losses to the

2397
01:48:20,720 --> 01:48:21,639
Speaker 2: Detroit Tigers.

2398
01:48:21,840 --> 01:48:23,879
Speaker 1: Here I am like a Dodger guy, and I'm surrounded

2399
01:48:23,920 --> 01:48:26,759
Speaker 1: by Tiger fans who would have thought JP.

2400
01:48:27,160 --> 01:48:29,960
Speaker 2: Enjoy your All Star week. Will definitely get your update

2401
01:48:30,040 --> 01:48:32,160
Speaker 2: next week. Thanks for joining us as always.

2402
01:48:32,280 --> 01:48:33,200
Speaker 6: You got it all the best.

2403
01:48:33,240 --> 01:48:34,920
Speaker 1: Thank you so much, Rod bless you all.

2404
01:48:34,880 --> 01:48:38,479
Speaker 2: Star games, John Palmerrosi our Fox Sports Radio MLB Inside,

2405
01:48:38,600 --> 01:48:40,519
Speaker 2: Let's find out what is trending right now.

2406
01:48:40,680 --> 01:48:43,559
Speaker 1: And Monci is in a state of shock as I am.

2407
01:48:43,880 --> 01:48:47,320
Speaker 3: As the Dodgers did it again, leading going into the

2408
01:48:47,400 --> 01:48:51,320
Speaker 3: bottom of the ninth inning and literally this this time

2409
01:48:51,600 --> 01:48:52,960
Speaker 3: throwing the game away.

2410
01:48:53,120 --> 01:48:53,320
Speaker 1: Yeah.

2411
01:48:53,400 --> 01:48:55,760
Speaker 8: Actually I did not see this live because I was

2412
01:48:55,800 --> 01:48:58,639
Speaker 8: watching England tie the game against Spain in the twenty

2413
01:48:58,720 --> 01:49:01,639
Speaker 8: twenty four Euro Final. It happened at the exact same time,

2414
01:49:02,160 --> 01:49:04,760
Speaker 8: so bo is like texting and delling at me on

2415
01:49:04,800 --> 01:49:07,519
Speaker 8: the other side. I'm watching soccer. Then I turned it

2416
01:49:07,600 --> 01:49:10,120
Speaker 8: on and I saw the bad throw. I saw it

2417
01:49:10,200 --> 01:49:11,200
Speaker 8: all happen, but I didn't see it.

2418
01:49:11,280 --> 01:49:11,439
Speaker 5: Lut.

2419
01:49:11,520 --> 01:49:13,439
Speaker 2: And that was a bad throw is like saying the

2420
01:49:13,560 --> 01:49:16,919
Speaker 2: Titanic swung a leak. I mean that thing was closer

2421
01:49:17,000 --> 01:49:18,640
Speaker 2: to the dugout than it was.

2422
01:49:18,720 --> 01:49:21,120
Speaker 1: The third band mate. Why make that throw though? Why?

2423
01:49:21,520 --> 01:49:22,920
Speaker 7: It was a desperation move.

2424
01:49:23,320 --> 01:49:25,560
Speaker 8: He wasn't expecting the ball to come to him and

2425
01:49:25,640 --> 01:49:28,600
Speaker 8: made a desperation throw, you know what I mean? Like

2426
01:49:28,760 --> 01:49:30,320
Speaker 8: I think that it caught him off guard, not that

2427
01:49:30,400 --> 01:49:32,759
Speaker 8: I'm saying, it's okay, but your a professional goal.

2428
01:49:35,280 --> 01:49:39,680
Speaker 1: Closer to the work on that in spring training. No,

2429
01:49:40,000 --> 01:49:41,280
Speaker 1: they work on that in spring train.

2430
01:49:41,360 --> 01:49:43,000
Speaker 7: You would stop it, you would think.

2431
01:49:43,200 --> 01:49:43,400
Speaker 1: Yeah.

2432
01:49:43,520 --> 01:49:46,479
Speaker 8: So for the second straight day, the Tigers walk it

2433
01:49:46,560 --> 01:49:47,839
Speaker 8: off against the Dodgers.

2434
01:49:47,960 --> 01:49:50,360
Speaker 7: I don't like saying that four to three was the

2435
01:49:50,479 --> 01:49:51,160
Speaker 7: final score.

2436
01:49:51,240 --> 01:49:53,679
Speaker 8: The Marlins topped the Reds three to the Red Sox

2437
01:49:53,840 --> 01:49:56,600
Speaker 8: edge the Royals five to four. The Rays blanked the

2438
01:49:56,680 --> 01:49:59,240
Speaker 8: Guardians to zero. The Orioles came back to beat the

2439
01:49:59,320 --> 01:50:01,439
Speaker 8: Yankee six. I have Baltimore heads into the All Star

2440
01:50:01,520 --> 01:50:03,800
Speaker 8: Break in first place in the Al East. And then

2441
01:50:03,920 --> 01:50:07,680
Speaker 8: the A's, guys, the a let me just play a

2442
01:50:07,720 --> 01:50:09,519
Speaker 8: little bit. I just want We're gonna start with this one.

2443
01:50:09,600 --> 01:50:10,160
Speaker 1: This is A's.

2444
01:50:10,320 --> 01:50:11,160
Speaker 7: This is the A's today.

2445
01:50:11,760 --> 01:50:15,320
Speaker 1: What too, bitch, high fly ball, deep brighton center. It's

2446
01:50:15,400 --> 01:50:18,280
Speaker 1: a three homer day for Lawrence Butler.

2447
01:50:18,600 --> 01:50:19,400
Speaker 7: Three homer day.

2448
01:50:19,560 --> 01:50:24,160
Speaker 1: Fought the law and the low one. Love that right, Okay?

2449
01:50:24,280 --> 01:50:28,799
Speaker 3: Then also A's there's gilof he swings and he slams

2450
01:50:28,840 --> 01:50:31,560
Speaker 3: one a deep left center field on its way and

2451
01:50:31,800 --> 01:50:33,519
Speaker 3: it is a grand slam.

2452
01:50:34,080 --> 01:50:36,280
Speaker 8: You want to know why he sounds so sad because

2453
01:50:36,280 --> 01:50:39,160
Speaker 8: he's bored because the A's crushed the Phillies eighteen to three.

2454
01:50:39,360 --> 01:50:42,679
Speaker 1: We were talking about the Phillies on the runaway at home.

2455
01:50:43,320 --> 01:50:45,840

2509
01:52:59,320 --> 01:53:01,800
Speaker 2: blitzing of the Phillies eighteen to three, and I agree

2510
01:53:01,800 --> 01:53:02,280
Speaker 2: with the VJ.

2511
01:53:02,520 --> 01:53:04,760
Speaker 3: You know it's empty the bullpen.

2512
01:53:04,520 --> 01:53:06,679
Speaker 1: Days tide the thing for the Phillies. I get that out.

2513
01:53:06,920 --> 01:53:09,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I'm looking at this game and I'm like,

2514
01:53:10,120 --> 01:53:13,679
Speaker 2: the A's had three players he had multi home run games.

2515
01:53:13,720 --> 01:53:15,559
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, how often does that happen?

2516
01:53:15,640 --> 01:53:17,000
Speaker 7: Eight homer's total in the game.

2517
01:53:17,160 --> 01:53:19,320
Speaker 2: Home runs in this game Brown had two home runs,

2518
01:53:19,439 --> 01:53:21,519
Speaker 2: Rooker had two home runs, and as you said, Butler

2519
01:53:21,560 --> 01:53:25,360
Speaker 2: had three home runs. That doesn't happen very often where

2520
01:53:25,360 --> 01:53:29,400
Speaker 2: a team has three players have multi home run games

2521
01:53:29,479 --> 01:53:30,639
Speaker 2: in the same game.

2522
01:53:31,040 --> 01:53:33,080

01:53:43,160 --> 01:53:45,760
Speaker 1: the Philly, the Phillies. The Phillies are still fine on this.

2528
01:53:46,080 --> 01:53:49,200
Speaker 1: On this EuroCup game. As you're talking, as I'm watching here,

2529
01:53:49,400 --> 01:53:52,240

2536
01:54:10,080 --> 01:54:12,160
Speaker 1: kind of dried it off. But you talk about a

2537
01:54:12,240 --> 01:54:15,200

01:54:38,400 --> 01:54:41,680

01:56:47,520 --> 01:56:48,920
Speaker 3: the game that we call soccer.

2600
01:56:49,000 --> 01:56:51,240

2601
01:56:51,720 --> 01:56:55,080
Speaker 2: copea American match between Spain and England. So Spain scores

2602
01:56:55,120 --> 01:56:56,800
Speaker 2: in the eighty six minute to take the two to

2603
01:56:56,840 --> 01:57:00,680
Speaker 2: one lead, and so you know, celebration. We're looking at

2604
01:57:00,800 --> 01:57:04,160
Speaker 2: maybe five more minutes for England. They get the corner

2605
01:57:04,280 --> 01:57:07,280
Speaker 2: kick and it's a perfect corner kick for a header.

2606
01:57:07,760 --> 01:57:11,080
Speaker 2: Direct line goalie makes the same but on the rebound

2607
01:57:11,600 --> 01:57:16,560
Speaker 2: another direct header that a header has to stop right

2608
01:57:16,600 --> 01:57:19,000
Speaker 2: in front of the net. The defender in the net

2609
01:57:19,160 --> 01:57:22,880
Speaker 2: with a header to stop it, and then a third

2610
01:57:23,040 --> 01:57:27,280
Speaker 2: opportunity that goes wide of the net. Unbelievable sequence to

2611
01:57:27,560 --> 01:57:29,760
Speaker 2: preserve so far a two one lead. We are in

2612
01:57:29,960 --> 01:57:32,400
Speaker 2: extra time right now, final minutes going off, but it

2613
01:57:32,440 --> 01:57:34,880
Speaker 2: looks like Spain's gonna win. But I'll have to admit,

2614
01:57:35,440 --> 01:57:38,880
Speaker 2: even if you're not a super fan of breaking this sport,

2615
01:57:39,520 --> 01:57:40,160
Speaker 2: that was amazing.

2616
01:57:40,240 --> 01:57:43,920
Speaker 1: This could be heartbreak again for England. They made the final.

2617
01:57:44,000 --> 01:57:45,920
Speaker 1: Thank you. They're in a final, in the last little cup.

2618
01:57:46,000 --> 01:57:47,960
Speaker 1: That's why I tell people all that people don't care.

2619
01:57:48,040 --> 01:57:50,520
Speaker 1: Listen that goes by me. I don't care. If you're

2620
01:57:50,520 --> 01:57:53,840
Speaker 1: a sport fan and you just want to watch good competition,

2621
01:57:54,320 --> 01:57:56,360
Speaker 1: I'm just put it on this like playoff hockey. I

2622
01:57:56,440 --> 01:57:58,200
Speaker 1: hear people go, I don't watch hockey. Yeah, I don't

2623
01:57:58,240 --> 01:58:00,800
Speaker 1: watch a lot of regular season. I don't watch it

2624
01:58:00,840 --> 01:58:03,800
Speaker 1: every night, But when the playoffs start, that's when you

2625
01:58:03,920 --> 01:58:06,320
Speaker 1: really tune into it because it's still just a great

2626
01:58:06,640 --> 01:58:07,680
Speaker 1: Here's what the problem.

2627
01:58:07,720 --> 01:58:10,920
Speaker 2: I have to watch this match end like this on

2628
01:58:11,080 --> 01:58:14,520
Speaker 2: that sequence and the great goal late. That's great penalty kicks.

2629
01:58:14,560 --> 01:58:15,160
Speaker 1: I don't get it.

2630
01:58:15,600 --> 01:58:20,400
Speaker 3: I'm not a penalty kicks to decide an Olympic gold medal,

2631
01:58:20,520 --> 01:58:22,800
Speaker 3: a World Cup championship couple America.

2632
01:58:23,520 --> 01:58:26,400
Speaker 1: No, no, no, I don't mind him what I would like,

2633
01:58:29,520 --> 01:58:30,360
Speaker 1: and they everyone.

2634
01:58:30,120 --> 01:58:33,240
Speaker 3: Just sort of sits on it, basically playing out the clock,

2635
01:58:33,400 --> 01:58:36,680
Speaker 3: trying to not make the mistakes the golden goal in

2636
01:58:37,000 --> 01:58:40,280
Speaker 3: in soccer either like full extra time, like bring back

2637
01:58:40,320 --> 01:58:40,920
Speaker 3: the golden goal.

2638
01:58:41,120 --> 01:58:44,480
Speaker 1: I think that's that's easy. I'm I'm with them moving

2639
01:58:44,560 --> 01:58:47,880
Speaker 1: it back. I don't. I don't mind penalty kick to win,

2640
01:58:48,240 --> 01:58:50,320
Speaker 1: but move it. Move it back, though, I think the

2641
01:58:50,440 --> 01:58:53,160
Speaker 1: advantage the extra point in the NFL, move it back,

2642
01:58:53,240 --> 01:58:56,400
Speaker 1: move it back, move it back. Why move it back.

2643
01:58:56,480 --> 01:58:59,520
Speaker 1: It's like it's it's it should be really totally worth.

2644
01:58:59,560 --> 01:59:01,360
Speaker 1: He was on side to on that on that game

2645
