Speaker 1: music is, well, don't worry, you're gonna hear it in

4
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:12,040
Speaker 1: the moment. You see. This is a very special episode,

5
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:14,240
Speaker 1: and what makes it special is that you get to

6
00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:17,800
Speaker 1: hear some legendary content and well we barely have to

7
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 1: lift a fingers, so it's great for both of us. Y. Anyway,

8
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:23,120
Speaker 1: as you remember, in twenty twenty three, after the Chiefs

9
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 1: Eagles super fraud, we did a series of investigative episodes.

10
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 1: Didn't we Tony into the vast cover up perpetrated in

11
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 1: that game? And did we win a bulletzer on that

12
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:38,239
Speaker 1: I can't remember.

13
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:41,919
Speaker 2: Between that and now this Sports Podcast award that we

14
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,880
Speaker 2: won for Best Comedy for the second year in a row.

15
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 2: It's hard to keep track. Yeah, it's hard to keep track,

16
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 2: you know.

17
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: Anyway, all right, so we launched this full investigation and

18
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 1: through all the mouth feastings that day, specifically how the

19
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: field was so slippery that nobody could play on it

20
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 1: just made the horrible, the whole thing impossible, The whole outcome,

21
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 1: no and void should have been avoided. Well with the

22
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 1: rematch about to take place. We thought we'd replay for

23
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,960
Speaker 1: you just that incredible bullets a probably winning episode. Can't

24
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,960
Speaker 1: remember just one thing to note? Our video looks like

25
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:16,319
Speaker 1: total crap because our idiot producer bought the crappiest cameras possible.

26
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 1: Great job by you.

27
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, good job by you, camera and you said it

28
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:22,040
Speaker 3: was out of your price range.

00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 1: Oh well, good news. You're in range of my rifle.

30

00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 1: I'll go grabb in THEAFS. We just win and reside.

43
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: The truth is going to come out about what really happened,

Speaker 1: and sure enough, Tony, now here we are. Yeah. You

45
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,960

Speaker 1: your lead here as they tend to go. No ways. Yeah,

47
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: and a huge story just came out of ESPN revealing

48
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,799
Speaker 1: new details which further throw the outcome of the Super

49
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 1: Bowl in the question.

00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 2: Yep, wipe the slate clean. We're only in the first

51
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 2: quarter here.

00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 1: Yes, soon they'll be the congressional hearing, the lawsuits. You'll see,

53
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 1: it's all coming to people anyway. Yeah, don't worry. We're

54
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: also going to get into the breaking news out of

55
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 1: the NBA Lebron James injured or so he says. You know,

56
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: we're going to expose that story exactly. But first, right now,

57
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 1: we continue our special investigative coverage of Super Bowl fifty

58
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: seven in this FUSCO special report, payple. Just when you

59
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: thought the result of the Super Bowl couldn't get any

60
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: more suspicious, now a brave whistleblower is speaking up the

61
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: most trusted authority of Super Bowl integrity. Of course, I'm

62
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 1: talking about a name we all know, legendary groundskeeper George Toma,

63
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: who Superstowl shield as you all know, for every single

64
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: Super Bowl known to us all as the sodfather. He

65
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 1: has bobly come out and said the field for Super

66
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 1: Bowl fifty seven was quote over water. I know, we

67
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 1: all know we're looking at the field. We all know

68
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 1: Wede the field too slippery to play on, and he

69
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: said it wasn't standed properly. A clear day of gardening

70
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 1: male practice. Now, this story is sending waves through the

71
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: league and also the entire landscaping community, and that's why

72
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: today we are doing special coverage of this scandal. You

73
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: thought Watergate was big. This is Overwatergate, over Watergate, the

74
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 1: Super Bowl cover up. Now, before we get into the

75
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,280
Speaker 1: details here, we do want to tell you we did

76
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 1: reach out and invite Commissioner Goodell on the show. No

77
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 1: resident respond yeah, exactly. And we did reach out to

78
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 1: several people in the league in league offices today, do

79
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 1: Chicken to come on? One person did say yes, probably

80
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 1: because he wants exposure or something. Yeah, we didn't want

81
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 1: to have him on the show again because he was

82
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: terrible last time. But he was at Super Bowl fifty seven,

83
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 1: so he might he might have some insight and he

84
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,159
Speaker 1: would have some insight as to what happened there. Unlike

85
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 1: our guess last week, Eric Iger chiefs Homer Nerd, Yeah

86
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: Nerd anyway, his name's Rash mccazi. And he actually took

87
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,799
Speaker 1: a photo of the field for the Super Bowl days

88
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 1: before they played. Well, what happened to that photo? Suddenly

89
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: is deleted. It's nowhere to be found. So let you just

90
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 1: find out what he's trying to hide there. But first

91
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,040
Speaker 1: let's dig deeper into this troubling story. You know, in

92
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: case you haven't been following it as closely as we have,

93
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 1: which you should be. A war of words has broken

94
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 1: out between George Thoma and his underling NFL field director

95
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:31,720
Speaker 1: Ed Mangan. Now, according to ESPN, Thoma claimed that Mangan

96
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 1: quote didn't do shit when it came to standing the

97
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,799
Speaker 1: field prior to the game. Yeah, Thoma said about mangan

98
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: and how he handled the grass. Quote, he waters the

99
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: hell out of it and puts it right into the

100
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 1: stadium and that's it never sees sunlight again. He can't

101
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: do that. Incredible. And then Thoma also alleged that the

102
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 1: field had a rotten smell.

103
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, something definitely smells rotten, all right.

104
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, Thomas said, quote, he sanded it two weeks too late.

105
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 1: He had only one sanding. He should have had two

106
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 1: or three standings at least, but he didn't do and

107
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,919
Speaker 1: that was it. Wow. And not only that he didn't

108
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,919
Speaker 1: take care of it, he wouldn't listen to anybody, Tony,

109
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:18,160
Speaker 1: your reaction.

110
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 2: What was the first thing I said? When we were

111
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:26,719
Speaker 2: watching the game? They didn't stand the field exactly.

112
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:28,159
Speaker 1: I could tell right away.

113
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 2: Anybody who knows anything knows you have to stand the

114
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:35,159
Speaker 2: field several times. And you could tell when the Eagles

115
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 2: started slipping all over the place and then Jalen Hurts

116
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 2: fumbled that was the result of the field being not

117
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 2: properly sanded. As they say in the world of groundskeeping,

118
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 2: if the grass is too wet, then you must forfed.

119
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 1: So well. But Tony, and you know, there had been

120
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: extensive coverage of this Super Bowl grass in the days

121
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 1: leading up to the game. You know ESPN this is true.

122
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,480
Speaker 1: They actually had a whole article on it, which at

123
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: the time seemed like a terrible content strategy, but now

124
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: it actually bullets are worthy. You know exactly what it

125
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 1: says in this article is that the grass for the

126
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,960
Speaker 1: Super Bowl is typically grown in Alabama, Georgia, California, where

127
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 1: you know grass grows. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, for some bad reason,

128
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 1: they decided to grow it in Phoenix. Makes no sense.

129
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: The hell tries to grow grass in a desert. I'll

130
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 1: tell you who that clown Ed Mangan yep. But it

131
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 1: doesn't even stop that dony because this grass for the

132
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. This wasn't like your typical grass you find out,

133
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 1: you know, in home depot or whatever. The grass was

134
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 1: actually developed in some kind of scientific laboratory. This is

135
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: trope people. Wow, a guy named Yankee Wu and he's

136
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 1: apparently a professor at Oklahoma State University. Don't tell me

137
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 1: which can have team is closest to Oklahoma State University.

138
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 2: I know who that would be, that Kansas City Chiefs. Yeah,

139
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 2: you know this has collusion written all over it. The

140
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 2: Chiefs knew the Eagles were a run first team and

141
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 2: that a slippery field would give them a huge advantage.

142
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 2: If there's anything that's slippery, it's the Chiefs who clearly

143
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 2: worked with Yankee Wu and Ed Mangan and the team

144
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 2: of laboratory grass scientists to undermine the Eagles.

145
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 1: Absolutely reeks of corruption. And you know this brings us

146
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 1: back to the petition we launched last week on this

147
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 1: show to tell the NFL to declare no winner for

148
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 1: Super Bowl fifty seven, and the petition has been online

149
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 1: at change dot org. So let's check in right now, Jay,

150
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 1: how many hundreds of thousands of signatures are we up to? Now?

151
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,319
Speaker 3: You only have one hundred and ninety seven signatures total.

152
00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 1: That's not even possible.

153
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 2: I had over two thousand text messages from our fans saying, yo,

154
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:04,119
Speaker 2: just sign.

155
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 1: Clearly can't read numbers or you know what that is.

156
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,719
Speaker 1: That's the algorithm hiding the truth. It hides the Do

157
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,440
Speaker 1: it makes sense? Don't let that do that to you?

158
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: Or do they cover it off? There? You go to

161
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 1: Don't worry about the algorithm. Let's get this fixed anyway.

162
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 1: Let's just move on to you know, a big story

163
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: out of the NBA. I guess Lebron James injured out

164
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: for at least a few weeks with a foot injury. Now,

165
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 1: there are so many strange parts to this story. Dote,

166
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 1: don'ty you know? It was broke. The ESPN headline read

167
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: and I quote sauces Lebron James feared out several weeks

168
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 1: with foot injury. Feared interest word choice than Donty who

169
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 1: feared this injury, because I certainly the hell didn't.

170
00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, If anything, I feared Lebron continuing to play so

171
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 2: I wouldn't have to hear about him all the time.

172
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,679
Speaker 1: Same it, Tony. And you know what's so interesting here.

173
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 1: You know, Lebron he's playing just fine, having a good season,

174
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:13,680
Speaker 1: and everything's good. Yeah, suddenly you know he's chasing the playoffs.

175
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:18,079
Speaker 1: Then suddenly Kevin Durant joins the Suns. Lebron's realized he

176
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 1: had no shot at the title, and then suddenly he's like,

177
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 1: oh oh I can't play. Yeah, oh my foot pop.

178
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 1: Did you guys hear that? You didn't hear that? Oh

179
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,200
Speaker 1: my totally popped. You know, at first he said he

180
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,680
Speaker 1: had a problem with the left foot, then the doctor

181
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: said the left foot was okay. Suddenly it was a

182
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:39,719
Speaker 1: problem with the right FOOTE the X right here, as

183
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 1: anybody looked at his medical records, you know, because this

184
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: just reveals reveals the truth about Lebron, doesn't it. You know,

185
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,359
Speaker 1: don't be fooled people. He doesn't want to make the playoffs.

186
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 1: The goal for every NBA player these isn't to win

187
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,599
Speaker 1: a title, it's to play in as few games this

188
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: poss relax, and so they want to do. You know,

189
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 1: these NBA basketball players, they're not playing basketball, They're playing hooky.

190
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: Isn't that right, Dony?

191
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:08,319
Speaker 2: It just goes to show that the NBA is clearly

192
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 2: responsible for so many of society's ills. No one of

193
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 2: the employers have so much trouble finding workers. I mean,

194
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 2: if a guy getting paid forty fifty million dollars is

195
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,320
Speaker 2: allowed to not show up for his job, then why

196
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 2: should a guy getting paid seventeen fifty show up for

197
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:29,559
Speaker 2: his when I see the unemployment stats. Yes, I blame

198
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 2: Joe Biden first, but Lebron James is a close second.

199
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 1: Another great point, Dony. And you know, on the subject

200
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:41,200
Speaker 1: of people, we can't stand one of them's coming on

201
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 1: the line. Oh yeah, get is over with and bring

202
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 1: him on the Fusco Satellite Network Fosco Satellite the world.

203
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:56,079
Speaker 1: As we continue special investigative report on Super Bowl fifty seven,

204
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 1: we bring in this guy, the host of the rash

205
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 1: Markazi Show, longtime journalist, right whatever, Look he's going to

206
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 1: be Frankia. You know, we really didn't want to bring

207
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 1: you on the show again because your last performance was

208
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 1: just terrible. You know the only reason we're bringing you back,

209
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 1: to be honest, is because, you know, it really recently

210
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: came to our attention that you're you're at Super Bowl

211
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 1: fifty seven days before the game started. Is that true?

212
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,679
Speaker 1: Did they really like someone of your caliber? Low caliber?

213
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:26,559
Speaker 1: In they did?

214
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 4: I got to walk on the field as as soon

215
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 4: as they put the SOD back. I think it was

216
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 4: it was a Tuesday, Tuesday or Wednesday, but I forgot Yes.

217
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 1: Interesting, So I assume, given that you'll seem to be

218
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 1: an expert on SOD, that you were up to speed

219
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 1: on the breaking and shocking developments surrounding Super Bowl fifty seven.

220
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 4: Yes, you know, this is like my favorite story that

221
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 4: no one but you guys are talking about.

222
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 1: Exactly. There you go, This this sad date, the sad

223
00:12:54,800 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 1: Gate is very actually hold on gates over Watergate, a

224
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 1: game that's better and more clever than the thing you

225
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,719
Speaker 1: just came up with. They'll be perfectly honest, but I

226
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 1: keep going, yeah, go.

227
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 4: No, I mean, I mean, usually there's not this kind

228
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 4: of drama between the previous guy who did the SOD

229
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 4: and the new guy who did the sad but you know,

230
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 4: the old guy, the sod bother is publicly traffic on

231
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 4: the new guys that you did a bad job.

232
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,839
Speaker 1: So you are familiar with legendary groundskeeper George Toma. I'm

233
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: very impressed you're up to speed here. Yeah, and uh

234
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 1: so we want to get into some details. Day. You

235
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 1: were apparently at the Super Bowl days before the game

236
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: was played, and you took a photo of the field

237
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 1: and tweeted it but then deleted it. So you know,

238
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: what are you trying to hide there? You trying to

239
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 1: hide What's something? What's really going on here? I'm not sure.

240
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:49,959
Speaker 4: Why the league thought that that was a secret what

241
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:50,960
Speaker 4: the field look like.

242
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 1: But I did take a picture of the field.

243
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 4: I posted it, and I was gently reminded that I

244
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,200
Speaker 4: was not allowed, for whatever reason, to take a picture

245
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 4: of the field. That listen, this is the Super Bowl,

246
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 4: so I'm not going to put my crudential to cover

247
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,439
Speaker 4: the game at stake for a picture of the.

248
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 1: Field, which coward.

249
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 4: I still have the pictures, but not knowing that the

250
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 4: field would play such a dramatic role in the game.

251
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 1: Well, hold on, who intimidated you here? I mean, he

252
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 1: is this Roger goodell, is it an angry horde of landscapers?

253
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 2: Who gets the guy who waters the grass? Was like, hey,

254
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 2: he starts, Yeah.

255
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 4: No, it was it was someone in pr that I

256
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 4: think basically pulled everyone no pictures of the field. So

257
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 4: I don't know why we got uh. You know, we

258
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 4: were there to talk to them. We were there to

259
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 4: talk to Toma and the groundskeeper because if you guys remember,

260
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 4: they really bragged on the fact that for the past year,

261
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 4: here's how we put this field together. You know, we've

262
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 4: wielded in, wieled it out, and we've spent They really

263
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 4: bragged how they spend millions of dollars in over a

264
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 4: year making sure this was the best field.

265
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 1: And yes, and you know what connected dots here we

266
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 1: dug into this. You know, as a journal you'll appreciate this.

267
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 1: You know that the field, the grass for the field

268
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 1: was developed at Oklahoma State University. What's the nearest NFL

269
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 1: team to Oklahoma State A rash take a guess, gotta

270
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 1: be the Cowboys, right, No, No, the Kansas City, Chase City.

271
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 1: You need to learn how to follow a train of thought.

272
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 1: But George Thomas said the field had a rotten smell.

273
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 1: Can you describe the smell to us, what are we

274
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 1: talking about? You know? Is it more like a dead

275
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 1: fish or more like old under underway, you know?

276
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 2: Or is it like a like ben gay or something like?

277
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 1: What are we talking about?

278
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 4: Listen, the field when ies smelled the field for the

279
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 4: first time when it was first rolled in, wasn't bad.

280
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 4: I think Toma was referring to the fact that they

281
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 4: put a covering on top of the field and then

282
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 4: Rihanna and a halftime show in the pregame show, like,

283
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 4: all this stuff was happening.

284
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 1: On a wet field.

285
00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 4: So imagine you go for a workout or whatever, you

286
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 4: have a wet T shirt and you cover that wet

287
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 4: T shirt.

288
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,520
Speaker 1: It's in a wet T shirt.

289
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 2: Hold on, yeah, what are we talking about over here?

290
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 2: Let's get back on track here. What yeah, all right,

291
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 2: we're talking about grass. We're talking about the grass. You're

292
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 2: talking about wet shirts.

293
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 1: You're trying to titillate our audience here. What now, was

294
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 1: it like rotten eggs? Did you smell rotten eggs? Yet?

295
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 1: Did you smell? You smell?

296
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 4: Get to the point, there was no smell whenever it

297
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 4: was first wheeled back in. But the smell grew apparently

298
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 4: as the days progress.

299
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 1: So I'm assuming were you at the game itself? For you,

300
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,360
Speaker 1: it was what was the smell like there?

301
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 4: It didn't smell great, It didn't smell great. I don't

302
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 4: know what the what to describe it as it.

303
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 1: Ever, Yeah, you're only a writer. I wouldn't expect that

304
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 1: out of you, dear lord. Put five words together. It

305
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 1: smelled not good, not good. That's the best we can

306
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 1: do here art. We have a real bullets. Yeah, wow,

307
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:06,239
Speaker 1: unbelievable good. Can you describe this dish to me at

308
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 1: a restaurant? A rash? Yeah, it's food you eat?

309
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:10,199
Speaker 4: What?

310
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:17,719
Speaker 1: Yeah? It's ground? Describe the field some vivid description, please, rotten?

311
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:19,639
Speaker 1: What do you you know if you open.

312
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,680
Speaker 4: Up a fridge that you've unplugged everything?

313
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 1: So good, Tony, tell them your theory. That's what Nick.

314
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 2: Sirianni right during the national anthem, A lot of people

315
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 2: looked at Nick Sirianni and thought, wow, he's really crying

316
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,120
Speaker 2: and emotional because of the national anthem. Now, while he

317
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 2: does love this country more than anybody else, we can't

318
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 2: confirm that he was actually crying because the field smelled

319
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 2: so awful.

320
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, so did were.

321
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,640
Speaker 2: Your eyes tearing it all a rush during the national anthem?

322
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 3: No?

323
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,199
Speaker 4: Thankfully they put me in the press box so I

324
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,160
Speaker 4: had the smell of hot dogs and popcorn.

325
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 1: It was I did not smell the feeling he's coming

326
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 1: on here? Know what? He's not giving us anything? Yeah? Yeah,

327
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 1: let's keep question. Are you covering the NFL or covering

328
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 1: for the NFL? Exactly? Come on, guys, come on, how

329
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 1: about this? How about you know he's afraid of losing

330
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 1: his precious badge. That's what's going on. That's what he

331
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 1: cares about.

332
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 4: There's two teams that played on that field though, right,

333
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 4: it wasn't just one team.

334
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 1: Is a passing team. Yeah, that's hurts them more. That's

335
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 1: why the Chiefs sabotaged the field, so they slip sliding

336
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:36,880
Speaker 1: all over the place. You know that there? Come on,

337
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 1: you kidding. He's too busy imagining himself in a wet

338
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 1: T shirt. I don't know what I think. I'm too busy.

339
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 5: I struggling to come up with the words. He's struggling

340
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 5: to come up with words. It maybe we'll get four

341
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 5: out of them, all right, Look, you know why we

342
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:56,159
Speaker 5: got you here. You know, on our last show we

343
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,879
Speaker 5: revealed what you know that you are a total Lakers homer.

344
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 1: You're probably you're probably crying in your wet T shirt.

345
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 1: That's why your T shirt's wet because of the Lebron injury.

346
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 1: All those trees, those Lebron come on, don't listen it

347
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 1: all right? Don't you think he's a little suspicious to

348
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,119
Speaker 1: Lebron gets injured all of a sudden, right, put it together.

349
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,639
Speaker 1: He's playing so well, then suddenly Kevin Durant joins the

350
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:22,719
Speaker 1: Suns and then suddenly he's like, oh my full are

351
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:26,440
Speaker 1: you guys for a title anymore? Like my foot popped? Everybody?

352
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 4: Right, no, listen, I mean, Lebron was having a good season.

353
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 4: I thought they could have made the playing tournament. Who

354
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 4: knows that maybe they'll make it all the way those

355
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 4: first round. My dream was the Lakers to have a

356
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,479
Speaker 4: Philadelphia season where they got to the finals and then

357
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,679
Speaker 4: they lost. I mean, that was my dream for the Lakers.

358
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 4: But I don't think it's gonna happen this.

359
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:53,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, how long you spend writing that one? Rush,

360
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 1: don't you think we as the media have a right

361
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,359
Speaker 1: to review his personal medical records and just you know,

362
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: make sure he's not just resting.

363
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,479
Speaker 4: Saying that he's not playing because he's afraid of Kevin Durant.

364
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,440
Speaker 2: Exactly, that's exactly what we're saying he was going to lose.

365
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,919
Speaker 1: No, he's not afraid of Kevin Durant. Come on now, really, the.

366
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 4: West is wide open. This is why I'm so upset

367
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,359
Speaker 4: that he's not playing right now. I mean, who is

368
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 4: who is he supposed to be afraid.

369
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:26,440
Speaker 1: Of the Sun's kings. You know how to read something

370
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 1: called NBA standings, Yeah, they're the eleventh seed. I said,

371
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:33,239
Speaker 1: I don't have to be the tennis seed. That's all

372
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,919
Speaker 1: I want. All right, Listen, We've covered a lot of

373
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 1: seeds and sides in this show. Yeah, all right, you

374
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,560

Speaker 1: I'm not over it yet. You know you said the

376

430
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:43,959

431
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well, arrowhead is what they're gonna call you
