But I was, I was 9 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 1: on the road this week. I think I can say 10 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 1: this now. I'm pretty sure my family's in bed. I 11 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:37,239 Speaker 1: got the old guilt trip, Like I live in Oklahoma, 12 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,480 Speaker 1: but my whole family's from like the Saint Louis area, 13 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 1: So I got the you know, we're getting older, Chris, 14 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: we'd like to see the grand babies every now and 15 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 1: then they're no longer grand babies. I mean, my son 16 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,559 Speaker 1: is freaking twenty two years old. But he's home. He 17 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 1: was home from his military responsibilities, and so we were like, okay, 18 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: let's go. Let's road trip. So we got in the car, 19 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,039 Speaker 1: packed up the fan, drove the seven and a half 20 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 1: eight hours up the highway to Saint Louis over the weekend, 21 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 1: and drove back today. So I'm still like. I haven't 22 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: been home since Saturday, so it's kind of like a 23 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 1: reset for me here in the Goldsby Oklahoma Studio. So 24 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,760 Speaker 1: I apologize Loraina and Coop if I seem disheveled during 25 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: the break. You know, I gotta find my hiding spot 26 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,039 Speaker 1: for all the weed I bought, you know, whenever I 27 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 1: was in Saint Louis. So it's been an investigative kind 28 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 1: of process so far. That's that's that's a Joe, or 29 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: is it? Now? Speaking of celebrations, tonight is New Year's Eve. 30 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: I will psa the hell out of this because I 31 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: had a buddy of mine. They got a dewey back 32 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 1: in the day on New Year's Eve kind of ruined 33 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: his whole. I don't want say live because he's fine now, 34 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: but kind of ruined the year. Really brought down the 35 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: vibes on that New Year's Eve. I mean, dude're telling 36 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: me that you had to switch lanes without using your signal. 37 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: But my point is, don't drink in tonight. Don't do it. 38 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: Don't drink and drive. If you're going to imbibe, there's lyft, 39 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 1: there's uber. It might cost a little more. I don't 40 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: know if they still do serge pricing, but even if 41 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: it does, it's much cheaper than going to jail. With 42 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,639 Speaker 1: that in mind, last night we were sitting in Arnie 43 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,639 Speaker 1: Spanier and I were sitting in for Jason and Mike, 44 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: and Arnie was talking about the Times Square New Year's 45 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: Eve celebration. Now real quick before we get back to 46 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 1: the phones.

Hell, 57 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: you might have already done it. 58 00:02:58,720 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 3: Uh. 59 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 4: I have wanted to do it in the past, but 60 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 4: knowing what I know now, I don't want to do 61 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 4: it that bad. 62 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, And in fact, the little I bring 63 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: this up because Loraina mentioned during the break that they 64 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 1: were talking with one of the dudes that's already standing. 65 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: I guess what up against the rails, like what's considered 66 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,839 Speaker 1: to be the prime standing spot for the New Year's 67 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 1: two celebration really early. He can't leave and I Alnie 68 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: brought this up last night and there's you know, listen, 69 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: just a little sidebar. My man, Arnie Spanier, We've been 70 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: doing a show together for over a decade. Love the guy, 71 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: love him like a brother. And my man falls for 72 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: everything that's fake on the internet. I mean everything that's 73 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: fake on the internet he falls for. We were just 74 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: talking about trying to figure out AI videos and what's 75 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: real and what isn't anymore, Buddy, Arnie still falls for 76 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 1: every single tweet that like Dove Climban sends out or 77 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: NFL r mrs or whatever, you know, fake thing that's 78 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: out there. You know, the Chris Olave decided to re 79 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 1: send his retirement papers whenever Derek Carr retired. Yeah no 80 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: he didn't, because nobody's losing their mind to play for 81 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: freaking Spencer Rattler. You guys kind of backed into Tyler 82 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 1: Shuck and his numbers are no better than Spencer Rattler's 83 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: but I digress. But Arniel fall for it, right. So 84 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: last night he was telling me the story about how 85 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 1: when you go to the New Year's Eve celebration in 86 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: New York, once you get your spot in Times Square, 87 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: you can't move and that people will go for like 88 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: twenty four hours longer, right to just sit there and wait, 89 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: and you can't leave your spot because if you leave 90 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 1: your spot, you lose it, which creates a pretty challenging 91 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: situation when it comes to bathroom breaks. Now, I'm old 92 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,919 Speaker 1: enough to remember a failed radio bit called Wee for 93 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: a Wei where they you know, he's like, you don't 94 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 1: it sounds crazy, but you don't want to over hold 95 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,599 Speaker 1: in your waist. I think it is the most family 96 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: friendly way to say it, even though we're in a 97 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 1: save harbor right now. People, but Larina, you were saying 98 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,919 Speaker 1: they were were they interviewing a guy or it was 99 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: just a report where he actually had his diapers there 100 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: with him that he was wearing, or like lines. 101 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 2: It was an interview, like someone was up at the front, 102 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 2: like what do you do? He's like, well, I don't 103 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 2: want to lose my spot. So but I just thought 104 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 2: it was crazy because he only you would think he 105 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 2: pulled out like thick diapers. Sure, he only pulled out 106 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,719 Speaker 2: panty liners, which is like the thinnest of the pads. 107 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 2: And if you're gonna be out there for twenty four 108 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 2: plus hours, you're gonna need more than a couple of 109 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 2: panty liners. And the people that were standing behind him 110 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 2: were like looking like you're gonna change those out right? 111 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 1: You're gonna what Like you can't just a sidebar to this, 112 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: You can't even negotiate anything. It's like, hey, listen, I 113 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: gotta go to the bathroom. You guys, can you hold 114 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: my spot here until I get back? Like they're big 115 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 1: enough jerks to where people. 116 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 2: Like, no, there's thousands of people. Have you ever been 117 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 2: to like a concert like that too? It's like it 118 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 2: would take forever. 119 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: To get back up to this through. Yeah, doesn't seem sanitary, though, 120 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: you're right, like, what is? 121 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 2: I'm sure people be doing some weird stuff to not 122 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 2: have to leave the crowds to be honest. 123 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: Okay, well, I I mean I don't want to judge, 124 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,359 Speaker 1: but I do. It's like there's this part of me 125 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 1: that who am I to say? What is had to. 126 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 2: Pee at the front of a concert? Or is there anything. 127 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: Listen, I'm fifty years old. I got to pee every 128 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 1: single time I drink water anymore, okay, right through me? 129 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 1: My conversation with my dad is now. I was like, oh, 130 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: you got to pee again? Yeah, me too. It's just 131 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 1: that's that's kind of life. But I I could understand 132 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: how that would be a challenge. But it's also, like 133 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 1: you said it in our one, ring in the New 134 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 1: Year is a new start, right, it's a new you 135 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 1: ringing in the new year. By I mean pissing your pants, 136 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I just don't really understand with a thin liner, 137 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: He's like, no, no, no, I'm not peeing my pants. 138 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: I got a liner here, right I could.

Is it worse? 141 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: Is it worth the humiliation to have that front row 142 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:29,679 Speaker 1: spot and this guy's mind? It was? And you mentioned 143 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 1: the liner's too thin in my book, right, way too 144 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: thing thin. 145 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 2: You're going to catch nothing with that, No good luck. 146 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 2: You might as well put in a catheter. 147 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: Go to a doctor beforehand and see if they can't 148 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: put a cather before you make winner. 149 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 2: It'd be so much finner and more comfortable for everyone 150 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 2: around you too. 151 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: Well, if you're just getting in tonight, welcome to the 152 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: Ben Malor Show.

I've got 168 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: quarterback questions here that I want to dive into I 169 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: think there's four very intriguing quarterback questions heading into twenty 170 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 1: twenty six and maybe more specifically heading into the offseason. 171 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 1: And I think a lot of them will be answered 172 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 1: pretty quick. And then Coop laid out how he has 173 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 1: to cure the back. He is on his way Denver 174 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: gets that one seed, it's definitely there, but you know 175 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 1: there'll be some nervous energy for that wild card game. 176 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 1: But in purchasing his tickets, very pricey, close to close 177 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,680 Speaker 1: two thousand dollars per ticket. But they're not next to 178 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: each other. In fact, they're what math one and eleven. Yeah, 179 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 1: they're like ten spots away from each other. So will 180 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 1: he be able to secure getting closer to his wife 181 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 1: or is it okay that they're just in the building 182 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 1: quote unquote building stadium together.

It's not as cold here as it 335 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: was in Saint Louis. Life is good. And then I 336 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 1: reminded that I'm pinned with the hell of being a 337 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:18,400 Speaker 1: Raiders fan. Two things. The NFL made an egregious air 338 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 1: air whenever they did not pair the Raiders with the 339 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 1: Rams in LA and I get it. I wouldn't want 340 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 1: to do that either if I was Stan Kronky, because 341 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: the Raiders are more popular in Los Angeles than the 342 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:36,440 Speaker 1: Rams or the Chargers would have been. And well, maybe 343 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: this level of sucked that the Raiders are in right now, 344 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: it wouldn't have mattered, because if you think Vegas is 345 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: a bit of a bandwagon town, and I think it's 346 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 1: fair to say, LA can jump off that bandwagon whenever 347 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: you're not as good as you should be. And that's 348 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: what hurt the Raiders whenever they went back to Oakland. 349 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:56,200 Speaker 1: It's embarrassing. It's just it's bad enough that you're bad. 350 00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: It's bad enough that you're a bad team right now, 351 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: added to the fact that every home game your stadium's 352 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:10,959 Speaker 1: taken over. Add into it that the Chiefs, your hated rival, 353 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:15,880 Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl in your stadium, and even though 354 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 1: the Chiefs are bad, you can't even enjoy it because 355 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:26,200 Speaker 1: you're worse. But I watch what the Jaguars are doing 356 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 1: this year. I watch what the Bears are doing this year. 357 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 1: I watch what teams that sucked last year are doing 358 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 1: this year. And I watch what Washington did when they 359 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,400 Speaker 1: got a quarterback. They you know, what do all these 360 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 1: teams have in common, Well, they got a quarterback, and 361 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 1: in the instances of Jacksonville and Chicago, they got a 362 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 1: coach that can work with said quarterback, Liam Cohen, and 363 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,879 Speaker 1: Liam Cohen and Ben Johnson have done incredible jobs in 364 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: developing these quarterbacks. I was listening to Antonio Pearce, and 365 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: for as much animosity that I think that he holds 366 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 1: towards the race, they were trying to get him to 367 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:07,640 Speaker 1: say something bad about Max Crosby being shut down, and 368 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 1: Antonio Peers was going through his Max Crosby. He's a fighter, 369 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,919 Speaker 1: he wants to play YadA, YadA, YadA, and then he 370 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 1: stopped and he said, but I would really want a quarterback. 371 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,439 Speaker 1: And you know, Derek Carr is what Derek Carr is. 372 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 1: And I think Raider fans have learned that he wasn't 373 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 1: as terrible as many people try to make him out 374 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,160 Speaker 1: to be. When you consider that, I think Vegas since 375 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 1: his final game that he played is on like seven 376 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 1: different starting quarterbacks in three years. I mean, it's just terrible. 377 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 1: So Antonio Pierce was always fighting to try to get 378 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: up and get what Jane Daniels he thought the Raiders 379 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 1: should trade up to number two, give up everything to 380 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 1: get Daniels, and maybe it would have been a different 381 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 1: world for him. But there's a failed head coach who 382 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 1: had to go through a quarterback disaster, and he's like, listen, 383 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 1: you can get mad about, you know, telling a player 384 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: that he's hurt and he's gonna be put on ir 385 00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 1: and you're not playing him, but you also need to 386 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 1: get an position where you actually have a serviceable quarterback. 387 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: Geno Smith sucks, all right. I know this isn't breaking news, 388 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:13,679 Speaker 1: and Seahawk fans are probably applauding, but the man cannot 389 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,640 Speaker 1: handle adversity. It's one of the coolest career arcs you'll 390 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 1: ever seen. Guy was a backup for like six years 391 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden gets to Seattle and resurrects 392 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:26,160 Speaker 1: his career. It's cool, but it's over. It's ov er over. 393 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:30,159 Speaker 1: As Arnie Spanier would say, go get Fernando Mendoza, Go 394 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:34,239 Speaker 1: get Dante more and maybe you get sucked into some 395 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:36,959 Speaker 1: of these trade talks with Lamar Kyler. Don't let yourself 396 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,479 Speaker 1: do that. Evaluate your quarterback and get him, because I 397 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 1: do think, believe it or not, the Raiders have some dudes, 398 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 1: Genti's gonna be a stud. Max Crosby is one of 399 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,400 Speaker 1: the best edge rushers, if not the overall best defensive 400 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: players in the league. Your left tackle's been hurt all 401 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,880 Speaker 1: year long. You've got a decent interior of your offensive 402 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:59,479 Speaker 1: line and names like kayleb Rodgers and Dylan Parthen. Receiver 403 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 1: needs help, corner needs help. But they got dudes. 404 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 3: Now. 405 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 1: By the way, it would help if we didn't have 406 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 1: a senior citizen as our head coach too. And can 407 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:14,600 Speaker 1: we normalize retiring at a regular age? I learned last night. 408 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:16,400 Speaker 1: I did not know this. I did not know the 409 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:21,679 Speaker 1: Packers had the age rule for the president of their franchise. 410 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: I think it's the smartest thing that anyone could ever do. Now, 411 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 1: if you wanted to fight it, you'd probably went in 412 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: court because you know ages to rules and things of 413 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 1: that nature. But when you turn seventy, you know what 414 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: you are within the Packers organization as the president. You're out. 415 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 1: You've aged out. Can we normalize seventy being an age 416 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 1: where you're playing the back nine of your career and 417 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 1: you're not trying to rebuild a franchise. I'm so down, man, 418 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 1: life is good. My life is great. I've never been 419 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 1: happier until I turn on that suck of a franchise 420 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 1: that just basically drains my will to live. And then 421 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 1: I gotta see Coop be all happy with his Broncos, 422 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: and I gotta see both the Charger fans that get 423 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:10,439 Speaker 1: all their celebrations, and I mean, it's just terrible, just 424 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,880 Speaker 1: terrible right now. And then you gotta watch, by the way, 425 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,640 Speaker 1: that was a pretty funny take. You gotta watch Titan fans, 426 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:20,760 Speaker 1: Mojo Risen, Titan fans come in and take over your stadium. 427 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 1: Oh the humanity, We got a break.

Why? Because he was chasing tail? 463 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:40,400 Speaker 1: I mean stop because he wasn't the greatest that ever? 464 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,120 Speaker 1: He might still be the greatest it ever?

That's when I really liked it, 487 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:46,440 Speaker 9: you feel me?

I appreciate it. 510 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: I would shoot to an end of the sun. I 511 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:55,160 Speaker 1: would contemplate Kyler or Lamar, but I don't know. Here's 512 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:57,359 Speaker 1: the question that I have. I'm stammering around here. Let 513 00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:00,680 Speaker 1: me make a point. I would draft a quarterback. I 514 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:04,119 Speaker 1: wouldn't go get a veteran. I would draft if you 515 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 1: fall in love with either one Mendoza more hel Ty 516 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 1: Simpson too. I like Ty Simpson a lot. I don't 517 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: know if he's number one worthy, but nobody at this point. 518 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 1: You know, years ago was talking about Kyler or Baker 519 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 1: going number one, and they did. But there is this 520 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: part of me that realizes, you gotta get something flashy 521 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 1: to get Vegas excited and will Vegas the city will 522 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 1: it be patient with a rookie quarterback or do you 523 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:39,399 Speaker 1: need to go get Lamar Jackson. By the way, Lamar 524 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: Jackson age check is twenty eight. People talk about him 525 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 1: like he's forty, and I understand his style is different, 526 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,199 Speaker 1: so that ages him a bit. And I know how 527 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 1: Ben feels about Kyler Murray. I feel different because I 528 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:53,360 Speaker 1: covered him and I like him. I think, I think 529 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 1: he's a great quarterback. He hasn't been able to stay healthy. 530 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 1: His clock is ticking a little bit and may be 531 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: accelerated because of the game that he but like me 532 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 1: personally as someone who wants to see this franchise persevere 533 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 1: year after year and be good, be great. I want 534 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 1: a draft Mendoza or Dante More and I want to 535 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 1: go with the rookie quarterback. I don't want to get 536 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 1: caught up in this world of going to get a veteran, 537 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 1: especially whenever you're talking about two guys that you mentioned, well, 538 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 1: I guess three, but one of them sucks and the 539 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 1: other two guys haven't been able to stay healthy the 540 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: last few years. I also think I have to start 541 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 1: realizing that the Raiders just might be cursed. They went 542 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 1: thirteen years without making the playoffs. After they won the 543 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 1: AFC Championship and went to the Super Bowl in twenty sixteen, 544 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 1: they might have been one of the best teams in 545 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 1: the league. Khalil Mack was an Defensive Player of the 546 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: Year that year. Derek Carr franchise quarterback man just starting 547 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: his career. Offensive line that had Rodney Hudson, Gabe Jackson, 548 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 1: Donald Penn. I mean they were dudes, the Tay Train, 549 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:07,360 Speaker 1: Latavius Murray and what happened. What happened in the next 550 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: to last game of the season, Derek Carr broke his foot, 551 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 1: our leg or whatever. All right, then you gotta go 552 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 1: with Connor Cook, Connor freaking Cook are Matt McGloin, and 553 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: it didn't go well and you lost to the Texans 554 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. You then go four years without making 555 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 1: a return trip to the playoffs. You hire John Gruden, 556 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 1: who goes four and twelve, seven and nine, eight and eight, 557 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 1: And then in twenty twenty one, you got something. You 558 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 1: got something. You're starting out, you won. You've won three 559 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 1: or your first five games. I know three and two 560 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 1: in college talk is like, gosh, that's terrible, But in 561 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: the NFL, you're okay, you're three and two, you're feeling 562 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: pretty good. And then the email scandal hits, and then 563 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 1: the email scandal hits, and then the Henry Ruggs situation 564 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: does tragedy takes place and he's out of the league 565 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: whenever it looked like he was starting to develop as 566 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 1: a receiver when he was healthy, and Derek Carr and 567 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 1: Rich Pasaccia rally the troops. They go seven and five 568 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: and they make the playoffs, only to lose in the 569 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 1: first round of the eventual Super Bowl participant, Cincinnati Bengals. 570 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 1: Even when you have a break, when you're good, something 571 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 1: goes wrong. They haven't sniffed the winning record since, so 572 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 1: there's a part of me that has to accept that 573 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 1: they might just be cursed and the only way to 574 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 1: break that curse is to get a good quarterback in 575 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: there to save your day. And I don't think that 576 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 1: guy is Lamar Jackson or Cala Murray. Cardiac stan Lee Stanley, 577 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 1: Welcome to the show. What's going on man? You're on 578 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio. 579 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 3: Hey, I want to talk to you know, the college 580 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:55,959 Speaker 3: football playoffs. But before that, you were talking about ticket 581 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 3: price for Super Bowl. 582 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, in general, right, my. 583 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 3: Dad we lived in Dayton, Ohio, and my dad had 584 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 3: to fly out to LA for business and he went 585 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 3: to a game called Super Bowl. 586 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 1: Number two, oh Raves Packers. 587 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 3: And he said it took us for twenty five dollars 588 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 3: and it was half empty, and you could sit anywhere, 589 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 3: you know, you know. 590 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 1: What, you couldn't even park. I don't even think you 591 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: could get a snack for that at the super Bowl 592 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 1: now in twenty twenty six. But different world, man, different world, 593 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 1: Different times. I was telling the story we'd pay eleven 594 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 1: bucks for bleacher tickets at Bush Stadium whenever, and I 595 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 1: thought that was expensive. So it's crazy. I mean, it's 596 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 1: an inflation's part of that. We can't sit here and 597 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: compare things to the sixties too much, right, But in 598 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 1: that same vein, it's it shows you just how out 599 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,719 Speaker 1: of control things have gotten whenever it comes to sports spending. 600 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 1: So let's talk some college football playoffs. How do you 601 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 1: feel about your Buckeye today? Should be feeling pretty good? 602 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 3: Well, I do you know, they say they haven't played anybody, 603 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 3: but from I listened to the games, I like the 604 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 3: guys that call the games on the radio scene in 605 00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 3: Ohio State. People probably don't know this. From Ohio State place, 606 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 3: probably fifty fifty five kids every game, you know, and 607 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 3: Ryan Day is now going to call the place right 608 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 3: as opposed to Brian Hartline right, who was once a 609 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 3: really good receiver from the Buckeyes. So my only concern 610 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 3: is is he going to, you know, hold stuff back 611 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 3: or is he going to go for it? But Ohio 612 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 3: State's bread and butter is Jeremiah Smith. And the other 613 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 3: kid I can't remember his name. He's really good too, 614 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:05,520 Speaker 3: and that saying it is a freshman to be and 615 00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:12,280 Speaker 3: he's throws a knife ball. And I also would like 616 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:17,239 Speaker 3: to see Old Miss upset Georgia because Georgia is the 617 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 3: only other team the playoffs stare me, what say you, 618 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 3: Chris Blank? 619 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 1: Thanks for the phone call. Jeremiah Smith, Carnell Tate, Brandon 620 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 1: Nis all stud receivers for Ohio State. And part of 621 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 1: the reason, part of the reason why he is playing 622 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 1: fifty five total players is because they're blowing everybody out. 623 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 1: That's why blowing everyone out so you can play fifty 624 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 1: five dudes in a game. I would worry about Miami 625 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 1: a little bit more. I think their defense is better 626 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 1: than what people are giving them credit for. But you're 627 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 1: you're thinking the right way. I want to. If I'm 628 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 1: in a position where i think I've got a championship 629 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: caliber team, I want Georgia out. They're good they're good, 630 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 1: and to me, the most overall talented team in the 631 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 1: playoffs is Ohio State. Now, what's crazy about it is 632 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 1: not a lot of that like NFL talent for now 633 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 1: would be defensively, but they might have the best defensive 634 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 1: player in all the playoffs in Caleb Downs, So Julian 635 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 1: saying special, I think he's done a great job going 636 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 1: into a tough situation. Ryan Day knows how to handle 637 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 1: being an offensive coordinator because he's called plays before for 638 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,839 Speaker 1: a long time, so you're not skipping a beat too 639 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,240 Speaker 1: terribly much. And the way that he's made it sound, 640 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 1: the way that he's made it sound is they've got 641 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 1: a pretty good feel for what they want to do offensively, 642 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 1: even with Brian Hartline balancing two jobs right now. So 643 00:34:57,880 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 1: if I'm an Ohio State fan, I'm feeling really good 644 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 1: about things. But you're right, I don't want Georgia to 645 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,239 Speaker 1: be a part of this because Kirby Smart has them 646 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,560 Speaker 1: ramping up and playing their best ball at the right time. Now, 647 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 1: with that in mind, I guess that kind of serves 648 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 1: as our college football preview. I do owe you some 649 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 1: ole Miss Georgia talk, which will do when we come 650 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:17,720 Speaker 1: back but I I see Mike the leprekhn as on hold. 651 00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:20,759 Speaker 1: So hanging there, Mike the Leprecaun.
