Speaker 1: you about who it's going to be logs. Well, I
Speaker 1: kind of read the graphic that we have built that
Speaker 1: Fernando is interviewing for the offensive coordinator. It's amazing, right,
Speaker 1: So that's why he's here. Little doings. We're gonna spread
Speaker 1: rumors Championship weekend. We'll preview the games coming up this
Speaker 1: Sunday as well. That's what's coming up on the program today. Well,
Speaker 1: let's start off, and and let's start off with the introduction.
Speaker 1: Here he comes in studio. You know him, you love him.
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame finalist Tony Boselli is finally here. Hi Tony.
Speaker 1: I actually didn't building Okay, figured out I've been traveling
Speaker 1: inside to give him a man hug. And he's welcome in. Yeah, welcome, Welcome, Welcome.
Speaker 1: Let's start off with the biggest us of the week,
Speaker 1: and it's the Mark Lamping comments from yesterday, and actually
Speaker 1: started earlier in the week. He met Monday evening with
Speaker 1: the editorial award for the Florida Times Union. Some of
Speaker 1: those comments came out on Tuesday in the paper and
Speaker 1: on Jacksonville dot com. Then on Wednesday yesterday on the
Speaker 1: Frank Frangie So Mark Lamping went on the show with
Speaker 1: Frank and the rest of the crew to explain some
Speaker 1: of those comments a little bit further, clarifying his comment
Speaker 1: on winning games has been suggested regarding the importance replaced
Speaker 1: on winning is totally inconsistent with not only what I
Speaker 1: expressed on Monday, uh, but as you know, what I
Speaker 1: have said repeatedly on these airways and elsewhere, including annually
Speaker 1: at our state of the franchise, and that is you know,
Speaker 1: not only is winning the number one most important thing,
Speaker 1: but it's also number two, number three, number four, and
Speaker 1: number five the way it was quoted in the story.
Speaker 1: At least on Tuesday, A lot of the fans on
Speaker 1: social media and everybody out there kind of took it
Speaker 1: and ran with that. He wanted to clarify a little
Speaker 1: bit more. Not just winning is important, um, but there
Speaker 1: are other things to this market that have to be
Speaker 1: done as well, not just winning games. But winning is
Speaker 1: is one one through five. You heard it. But I mean,
Speaker 1: I I didn't have the reaction I think that a
Speaker 1: lot of people might have had, because I mean, I
Speaker 1: know Mark, I know what his thoughts are, and and
Speaker 1: Mark speaks from the business side of things and not
Speaker 1: from the football side of things. So so I I
Speaker 1: understand his perspective. Um, I also understand some of the
Speaker 1: fans reaction if they just if they didn't know Mark,
Speaker 1: and you just read the article and that's all you
Speaker 1: have to go by. And I think Mark did a
Speaker 1: great job of explaining himself on Frank Show yesterday. And
Speaker 1: I think that, uh, I think the first part that
Speaker 1: he explained his Look, we're talking about having an article
Speaker 1: which probably used five or six of his quotes, that
Speaker 1: the interview lasted the course of an hour and a
Speaker 1: half at least, and uh and look, I've been there
Speaker 1: before to where you might have an interview with a
Speaker 1: with a sportswriter and then all of a sudden, the
Speaker 1: headlines roll out the next day and it's like, wow,
Speaker 1: did did I just say that? And that only you know?
Speaker 1: And and but that's where the focus sometimes goes. So so, look,
Speaker 1: I I appreciate Mark's commentary on Frank Show. I did
Speaker 1: listen to that and uh and I thought he was
Speaker 1: on point. And uh, so I don't know, I mean,
Speaker 1: is there any reason to get crazy about this? No?
Speaker 1: Not for I mean I don't think so, because you
Speaker 1: it's easy to take one comment out of context of
Speaker 1: a larger conversation, and I slee winning is important, but
Speaker 1: I mean, you see where the fans are frustrating because
Speaker 1: the team's not winning, and so they're looking for anything
Speaker 1: to fuel their rage of not have winning in the
Speaker 1: football games, which is what fans are supposed to do.
Speaker 1: That is fine, but you can't make you can't blow
Speaker 1: this up into a major deal to take this one
Speaker 1: sentence out of the larger context of what has been
Speaker 1: consistently Mark Lamping and Shot or shot com first and
Speaker 1: foremost in Mark Lamping's overall message about this franchise and
Speaker 1: the goal of the franchise is to win well at
Speaker 1: the same time. Where you can have both is that
Speaker 1: there needs to be other ancillary things being done because
Speaker 1: of the market size that we operate in. That's not
Speaker 1: a secret that not that winning isn't most important. Mark
Speaker 1: just said it. It's always been most important. And I'll
Speaker 1: go back to Shot con spent fifty million dollars of
Speaker 1: his guarantee of guaranteed money to bring a quarterback in here. Now,
Speaker 1: m the fact that that hasn't worked out at this
Speaker 1: point is not Shot Khan's fault or Mark Lamping's fault,
Speaker 1: but the commitment to win is there. Look at the
Speaker 1: dollars and cents. Look at how much they've spent, Look
Speaker 1: at the dollars. It is the fact that the people
Speaker 1: that the fact that the football side of this organization
Speaker 1: has not lived up to the standard that has been
Speaker 1: set on the business side based on the dollars and
Speaker 1: cents that the owner has invested, is not shot CON's
Speaker 1: fault and it is not Mark Lamping's fault. And so
Speaker 1: all Mark, how I took the comment how I've always
Speaker 1: taken the comments like winnings first, were a football organization
Speaker 1: and winning football games is what our fans want, is
Speaker 1: what we want. But as we strive to win, we
Speaker 1: are also going to make smart business decisions to support
Speaker 1: this franchise to make sure it is viable in this market, which,
Speaker 1: if I'm a fan, should get me more excited saying, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm mad that our team stinks right now and it's
Speaker 1: not okay, But at least I have an owner and
Speaker 1: a president of the organization in Mark Lamping, that is
Speaker 1: doing everything in their power to make sure this franchise
Speaker 1: is financially viable and successful in this market, which they
Speaker 1: are doing everything they can do. So Mark side of
Speaker 1: things is the business side of it. So I mean
Speaker 1: I think for people to yeah, you can't get mad
Speaker 1: at him him the losses. I mean, you know, he
Speaker 1: he does the business side of the Jaguars in football
Speaker 1: is on the other side of the hallway. You know,
Speaker 1: it might it might well be. It might as well
Speaker 1: be across the country. I mean, because his focus is
Speaker 1: winning the business side of things, and and Mark has
Speaker 1: done an outstanding job for this organization in so many
Speaker 1: different ways. And I know from from our personal perspective,
Speaker 1: I mean, both Tony and I we've been a part
Speaker 1: of this organization from the beginnings, right, We've seen this
Speaker 1: organization and this franchise go through two different owners and
Speaker 1: some of the things that they have been able to
Speaker 1: do under the ownership of shodkn and under the leadership
Speaker 1: of Mark Lamping has been nothing short of tremendous. Um.
Speaker 1: Some of the initiative that that they have done have
Speaker 1: been I wouldn't even have thought of doing something similar
Speaker 1: to some of the things that they've don't done. I mean,
Speaker 1: so credit to them and uh, credit to some of
Speaker 1: their their creativity, and so you know, I think it's
Speaker 1: exciting going forward what this organization can become from from
Speaker 1: the business side of things with the London London initiative.
Speaker 1: And I know that the question also was asked of Mark.
Speaker 1: You know, could there be two games? And let's see
Speaker 1: what Mark Lamping, Jaguarre's president, Could there be two London
Speaker 1: games in the future. One of the keys to protecting
Speaker 1: other stability of the of the Jaguars here in Jacksonville
Speaker 1: required required us to do something like to home games
Speaker 1: in London. Well, then we would have to we would
Speaker 1: have to have to consider that. So I mean that
Speaker 1: there's this answer on the two London games possibility. Again,
Speaker 1: you have to I always look at this from the
Speaker 1: big picture of what and you look at um the
Speaker 1: decisions that have been made and what has happened since
Speaker 1: Shotgun has been here. From a fans perspective, it's good
Speaker 1: and bad. The stability of the organization, the amazing things
Speaker 1: that have happened around in a lot of the game
Speaker 1: day experience, I mean Daily's place, as far as I
Speaker 1: mean the concerts we have here now that are unreal
Speaker 1: lot j is gonna happen experience, A lot of stuff
Speaker 1: has been really possible, by the way, and that's under
Speaker 1: the leadership of Mark Lamping. Mark Lamping, that's his job
Speaker 1: and and his job is to make sure this organization
Speaker 1: is financially stable, viable and successful. That's his job, and
Speaker 1: so he is going to figure out how to do
Speaker 1: that job at the highest level. And it has been done,
Speaker 1: in my opinion, very well. I mean, and forget that
Speaker 1: I work here and we're part of this organization. Just
Speaker 1: look at the evidence. Just go watch a concert in
Speaker 1: Daily's place that wasn't here five years ago, four years ago.
Speaker 1: Just be a part of the renovation and look at
Speaker 1: the renovation the stadium and the scoreboard, and just look
Speaker 1: at I mean, the stadium up grades have been fantastic,
Speaker 1: fantastic the negative if you're the fan, which I get
Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, all that is
Speaker 1: nice and that is all a part of when Mark
Speaker 1: talks about, Yes, winning is first and foremost, but we
Speaker 1: have to do more and we're gonna do more to
Speaker 1: make sure things go well. The winning part of it
Speaker 1: has not been good mhm since Shoan became owner. Now,
Speaker 1: how you look at that is of your I tend
Speaker 1: to look at it is the owner's job is to
Speaker 1: give the resources and the and the tools to the
Speaker 1: people on the football side of the building for them
Speaker 1: to do their job. They've had all the resources, all
Speaker 1: the resources, all the tools that they need, and so
Speaker 1: now it's the responsibility where we have fallen well short
Speaker 1: of expectations in my opinion, and I think the fans,
Speaker 1: most fans would say, we want more wins. I think everyone,
Speaker 1: including anyone in this organization we want more wins. Has
Speaker 1: to be better and they have to win more football
Speaker 1: games because at the end of the day, that's all
Speaker 1: that matters when you're looking at the football teams, and
Speaker 1: that's how you're ultimately judged at the end of the
Speaker 1: day's wins and losses. So I think some of the
Speaker 1: fans angst that was directed on social media towards Mark
Speaker 1: was unfair but understood because they're just mad. They want
Speaker 1: to win, because that's at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: that's what they care about more than anything, and that
Speaker 1: hasn't happened. I think they should get mad at JP
Speaker 1: Standard Line every bodies man. You mentioned some of the
Speaker 1: other projects. A lot J is next on the docket.
Speaker 1: Here's what Lamping had to say about that project coming up.
Speaker 1: We're in a really good position. We're closer than we've
Speaker 1: ever been, but we still need to finalize in agreement
Speaker 1: with the Mayor's office. We're getting very close, we're not
Speaker 1: there yet. The getting very close. Then following that it
Speaker 1: needs to go to UH, the UH, the d I,
Speaker 1: A board and ultimately and most importantly, it needs to
Speaker 1: go in front of the city Council. So there needs
Speaker 1: to be consent along along along that entire route. But
Speaker 1: we expect that we'll have groundbreaking the spring. We think
Speaker 1: the construction process is going to take three and a
Speaker 1: half to four years. We wish we could snap our
Speaker 1: fingers and have a lot j be done tomorrow, but
Speaker 1: we can't. So the viaduct coming off the heart bridges
Speaker 1: would be part of a separate project, but probably come
Speaker 1: a little before that that you'll see the beginning stages
Speaker 1: of that. That's a city project. This would be a
Speaker 1: separate project from that, but it all kind of combines
Speaker 1: into one a year. So that's coming up the next
Speaker 1: few months. It's exciting to see hopefully some shovels in
Speaker 1: the ground pretty soon. Well hopefully the proper steps get
Speaker 1: taken and UH and they get rocking and rolling. You know, no,
Speaker 1: I know, it's probably gonna be a little bit of
Speaker 1: an inconvenience. That's usually where I park, and yeah it'
Speaker 1: tailgating and parking. I'm very self serving there at all.
Speaker 1: I just wonder where am I gonna parking? Maybe they'll
Speaker 1: put us with the players. I don't think so. I
Speaker 1: doubt it, but we can ask so. Our courtesy to

Speaker 1: President and CEO with us. What's up? Are you doing good? Good?
Speaker 1: Thanks for having me here again. Good to see you.
Speaker 1: It's been a little bit, but glad to have you back. No,
Speaker 1: thanks for having me so. Twenty nineteen season, How did
Speaker 1: it go for Pet Paradise In the stadium, here, the
Speaker 1: dog park. Everything seemed to be another hit again. It
Speaker 1: was good so we had points for Pets with Josh Lambeau,
Speaker 1: so every home field goal he made we donated three
Speaker 1: dollars to local charity and also three dollars for the
Speaker 1: the person that signed up. So he hit seventeen field
Speaker 1: goals this year. He didn't miss any at home, so
Speaker 1: it was for home games. We donated a little over
Speaker 1: fifty dollars to three local charities, so Florida Urgent Rescue,
Speaker 1: Jacksonville Humans Us Idea, and First Sisters, which is Josh
Speaker 1: Lambeau's charity where he got his dog from. Very cool.
Speaker 1: That's uh, that's really good stuff. And he had a
Speaker 1: great it's a great year to to pick Josh Lambeau
Speaker 1: to do a charitable donation. I guess right. He's making
Speaker 1: field goals all year long now he did. He had
Speaker 1: an incredible year thirty three or thirty four, which is
Speaker 1: really unheard of. But h and he's been a great
Speaker 1: fan for us. And he's a big dog and pet person,
Speaker 1: so he's been a great person to be associated with
Speaker 1: Pet Paradise. All right, for now, I got a question
Speaker 1: about about the dog park up there. That is what
Speaker 1: we call is that right? Dog park? Dog park? Dog park?
Speaker 1: I want to make sure you use the terminology right.
Speaker 1: How many how many dogs on a game day? Can
Speaker 1: you guys hold up there, so we can hold anywhere
Speaker 1: from twenty to thirty dogs up there. So during the
Speaker 1: course of the season we'll have two hundred to three
Speaker 1: hundred dogs that go through there. So if you I
Speaker 1: don't know if you've been up there, but there's I've
Speaker 1: seen I've been. If they're not, win is full of
Speaker 1: dogs all I'm on the radio, so well, we need
Speaker 1: to send you over there to do some in game
Speaker 1: correspond Maybe interviews with the dogs might be more into
Speaker 1: Now there's a swimming pool up there and big play
Speaker 1: areas and palm trees, and it really really shows what
Speaker 1: the brand is about in a smaller way. It's about
Speaker 1: two thousand square feet. This year we put a pot
Speaker 1: up there because sometimes it gets really hot, especially those
Speaker 1: September games, so we have air conditioning and um we
Speaker 1: can get them out of the weather and cool them
Speaker 1: down for a bit and circulate them around and and
Speaker 1: so if I if I have a dog, which I don't,
Speaker 1: but if I had a dog and wanted the dog
Speaker 1: to come on game, is there like a process I
Speaker 1: signed up because I imagine there has to be a
Speaker 1: waiting list or a lot of people want to bring
Speaker 1: their dogs on a Sunday afternoon. Yeah, not to leave
Speaker 1: my home. Were over, can have a good time and
Speaker 1: hang out all dogs. Yeah, I know. So you would
Speaker 1: come by Pet Paradise first of all to do a
Speaker 1: temperament test because it's not really yeah that I was
Speaker 1: gonna say something I want. Yes, that would be smart
Speaker 1: temperament temperament test. And and a lot of them are
Speaker 1: existing customers, so our staff they already know them. And um,
Speaker 1: some of them come multiple times. Josh's dog has been
Speaker 1: up there several times, Lana and um, we've got we
Speaker 1: had a lot of dogs that come up there. But yeah,
Speaker 1: so they come in for a temperament test. They can
Speaker 1: sign up online is what we did this year. And
Speaker 1: like you said, there are a lot of people that
Speaker 1: want to come, but about twenty to thirty a game.
Speaker 1: Can you do a temperament test on my kids? Because
Speaker 1: I'm not sure one for the studio. You're the studio.
Speaker 1: Like when I said, interviewing, there'll be more interesting because
Speaker 1: the mentality of some of us is about the same
Speaker 1: level of the dog. Yeah, Fernando cast Rule is from
Speaker 1: Pet Paradise. This is this whole thing started in Jacksonville.
Speaker 1: I mean it was a one to three local Jacksonville,
Speaker 1: North Florida area locations, and now there's one over a
Speaker 1: thousand employees and nine different states, Is that right now?
Speaker 1: That's right. We started We opened the first prototype in
Speaker 1: two thousand four at Jacksonville Airport and today we have
Speaker 1: thirty six in operation and another seven under construction. So
Speaker 1: we'll finish the year this year with forty three and
Speaker 1: then another eight to attend the next year, so we're
Speaker 1: poised to really double in size in the next three years,
Speaker 1: three to four years. So today we're about employees and
Speaker 1: in nine states. About fifty percent of our businesses here
Speaker 1: in the state of Florida, so we're in high growth
Speaker 1: areas and it's just been a great um market force.
Speaker 1: It's been I've been in it now sixteen years. It
Speaker 1: feels that just started a few years ago. So it's
Speaker 1: been a lot of fun and it's a lot of opportunity,
Speaker 1: a lot of growth. We're doing new things where we
Speaker 1: just started veterinary services, so we started primarily just boarding,
Speaker 1: then day camp became big, and now we're in veterinary services,
Speaker 1: so that the whole industry has really expanded a lot
Speaker 1: and people are spending a lot more on their pets
Speaker 1: and treating them like family members. Yeah. I had a
Speaker 1: good friend that sends their dog and they said, I'm
Speaker 1: sending the dog to day camp. When I said day camp,
Speaker 1: so it's like what happens at day camp for a dog?
Speaker 1: I mean it's because it's a pretty new it's a
Speaker 1: newer concept, you know, that's kind of spreading all over America. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so when people if they have a pet and they're
Speaker 1: going to work, Um, you can't leave your dog at home,
Speaker 1: or a lot of dogs you can't leave at home
Speaker 1: all day, so they'll drop them off in the morning.
Speaker 1: It's just like child daycare. You can drop off at
Speaker 1: six thirty in the morning, pick up after work at seven.
Speaker 1: And we have a lot of people that come every
Speaker 1: day for day camp. So it's a big part of
Speaker 1: the business and allows people to have pets but also work.
Speaker 1: And now when you have uh families where the husband
Speaker 1: and wife both work, it's a very convenient. Um, I
Speaker 1: think to have your pet there and he's exercised and
Speaker 1: you pick him up and he's tired, which is always
Speaker 1: a good thing. You did like build like segments for
Speaker 1: these dogs, like based on their personality because like like
Speaker 1: JP and I would not be good together. You have
Speaker 1: to fence us off because we wouldn't work very well together. No,
Speaker 1: that's good looking dogs on this side of the The
Speaker 1: bald dogs are over there. Guys with hair over here. Um, like,
Speaker 1: how would you like? How does that work? Yeah, and
Speaker 1: it is. It's back to temperament testing. So you have
Speaker 1: different groups, so you'll have the smaller guys. We actually
Speaker 1: have areas now called tiny Town, which is all for
Speaker 1: just small dogs, so because you don't want the small
Speaker 1: dogs with the big dogs. And then you have some
Speaker 1: of the more active dogs will be in groups, and
Speaker 1: then some of maybe the older dogs that are more
Speaker 1: laid back will be in different groups. So yeah, we
Speaker 1: do know the temperaments of all the dogs and we
Speaker 1: put them in the appropriate groups to play together. So
Speaker 1: there's a lot of free work that you you do
Speaker 1: with that costaua with us. You have a football background
Speaker 1: as well a little bit. Do we need to delve
Speaker 1: into that today. Punter at Florida. Yeah, I kicked a
Speaker 1: football at this thing they did over at the at
Speaker 1: the indoor practice facility. Um, that was the first time,
Speaker 1: that was probably two years ago. No, but I kind
Speaker 1: of eased up on it because I knew I was
Speaker 1: going to and that was the first time I kicked
Speaker 1: the ball and probably I don't know, ten fifteen years.
Speaker 1: And the guy i'll work with, our VP of real
Speaker 1: estate is the guy named Brian Franco, and he used
Speaker 1: to kick for the for Penn State. So we did
Speaker 1: this kick passing punt thing and that was the last time.
Speaker 1: But now I haven't. So it's a former punter. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, because like when Logan Cook goes out there,
Speaker 1: most people go get a beer. You know, they're hanging
Speaker 1: out talking like it's a punt. It's not good when
Speaker 1: the punter comes the putter, right, But do you like
Speaker 1: get excited when the punter comes out because of being
Speaker 1: a past punter. I don't know about excited. But I'll
Speaker 1: watch it, you know, when any kicker or punter comes
Speaker 1: out there. I do, like Logan Cook when you see

Speaker 1: And that wouldn't mean I don't know to fall start show.
Speaker 1: I mean, thank you. It's a five yard penalty, all right.
Speaker 1: Thanks to Fernando Acosta Ruler Vertice for joining us. And yeah,
Speaker 1: what do your was fifty dollars of charities with all
Speaker 1: the lambeau Field goals, And you know I was, you know,
Speaker 1: I bowed out to to allow him to sit here
Speaker 1: and talk with you guys. And I was sitting there
Speaker 1: wondering this temperament test. I want to take it. Well,
Speaker 1: what if I'm thinking is you know, think the combine
Speaker 1: would barons? I mean the combine has forty yard dash times.
Speaker 1: They have intelligence tests, psychologic psychological test. Yeah, about a temperament,
Speaker 1: I think that's a psychological test. I don't think the
Speaker 1: same time, I don't think so. I think it's more
Speaker 1: of a try to find out if you're gonna be
Speaker 1: like some serial killer type stuff. Yeah, I want to
Speaker 1: find I mean, if you want, I want to find
Speaker 1: out about a guy's football temperament, wonder like that kind
Speaker 1: of thing. That's that's an intelligence that JP. I can
Speaker 1: tell you, JP, I played I played football with some
Speaker 1: guys that have been really smart, and they had the
Speaker 1: temperament to grow flowers. And I played with some guys
Speaker 1: on the other opposite and they couldn't write their name
Speaker 1: down and they had a temperament to play football seven
Speaker 1: and uh. And then some that were incredibly smart and
Speaker 1: had the temperament play ball too. But I mean, there's
Speaker 1: no rhyme or reason. But if you could find out
Speaker 1: a way to evaluate football temperament, or you can even
Speaker 1: better with the thing you could measure is what do
Speaker 1: you think? Let me ask you a question quick be
Speaker 1: you measure? John Ocean what do you think his football
Speaker 1: temperament might have been? Uh, is it a scale like
Speaker 1: zero to what we do? Yeah? Yeah, yeah zero minus two? Wow? Negative?
Speaker 1: I think you know the other thing you talk about,
Speaker 1: temperament test and all that stuff a great measuring stick
Speaker 1: if you could ever figure out how to test for
Speaker 1: it or to measure uh, individual rules ability to be
Speaker 1: a pro to take were the importance of football and
Speaker 1: it being a priority, and making that they live their
Speaker 1: lives making decisions around being a pro. Because that is
Speaker 1: the one consistent of almost all or a majority of
Speaker 1: guys who are successful in this league, especially the ones
Speaker 1: who aren't just uber talented. They get it. They are pros.
Speaker 1: They get it. They understand about how the commitment, how
Speaker 1: to handle themselves in the offseason, how to handle themselves
Speaker 1: in season, how to be a pro in the locker room,
Speaker 1: how to approach practice, prepper, all those things is so critical.
Speaker 1: I'd rather test for that than temperament, I hear you,
Speaker 1: because that would kind of OS could be maybe a
Speaker 1: two on that. What would you say of the Jaguars
Speaker 1: roster who would like be some of the highest aided
Speaker 1: football temperament guys right now? Like pros pros, like we're
Speaker 1: we're talking about being a pro evaluation or temperament. Temperament
Speaker 1: and pro separate, and I'll give you kind of the
Speaker 1: extremes probably on for each of those temperament. Yes, give
Speaker 1: me Angwys temperament all day, all day long. I mean
Speaker 1: you know, I mean once he goes out on the field,
Speaker 1: he's ball about ball. Committee is also a pro because
Speaker 1: he's preparing himself every year. Both would be I would
Speaker 1: put as a as a guy in for for being
Speaker 1: a young guy now in goa is a total pro.
Speaker 1: But I mean, look, the guys that are advanced pros
Speaker 1: are the guys that have been around the block and
Speaker 1: that have learned through trial and there and a lot
Speaker 1: of mistakes in some cases that learned how to be
Speaker 1: a pro. And Klais is like the ultimate pro. I
Speaker 1: mean right, I mean, I mean there's nobody better that
Speaker 1: guy that's a pro, that could be a pro. Another
Speaker 1: guy who's a pro really prepares and you can tell
Speaker 1: he it's important to him. He's ready every Sunday. Is
Speaker 1: Trey Herndon. Just look how he preps his his approach
Speaker 1: to the game, takes his mouth here around the locker room,
Speaker 1: everything you hear from the coaching staff. You know his
Speaker 1: preparation is a plus. Uh, he's ready to play game day.
Speaker 1: He plays his tail off. Go watch him play. I mean,
Speaker 1: is he the best corner in the NFL? No, But
Speaker 1: does he maximize his ability you can win with? And
Speaker 1: is he a starter in this league at the quarter position? Absolutely?
Speaker 1: The answer is yes. It's interesting thought. It really is
Speaker 1: temperament test for Jaguars radio. There's been some guys who fail,
Speaker 1: but I'll give you the ultimate temperament fail in Jaguars
Speaker 1: history for this, Matt Jones. Matt Jones would fail. I
Speaker 1: just I remember that pass that he caught. This wasn't
Speaker 1: important to me and any coward expecting to just get
Speaker 1: hammered and nobody was there and he just kind of
Speaker 1: goes down to the ground. But I don't know that
Speaker 1: that was bad example, bad example. But was it important
Speaker 1: to him? No, it wasn't important to him. I mean
Speaker 1: other things were wed. Yeah, well whatever, that weren't to
Speaker 1: be a good football player, whatever, whatever. I'm divorcing myself
Speaker 1: from that. Last year, the reports we found out, like
Speaker 1: the record, he had some running with recreational drugs or
Speaker 1: we should properly turn that for drugs of abuse. I
Speaker 1: mean the recreational angle for doesn't seem to have a
Speaker 1: proper terminology, like the park. Pick a basketball stroll for
Speaker 1: a park. We're just going out frolling the park. Yeah,
Speaker 1: let's a little coke and little weed. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: that's not no, that should be termed differently, am I
Speaker 1: all right? Yeah, you're not wrong. I'm not sure. I
Speaker 1: don't know where were you going down this, Pa. Let's
Speaker 1: talk about Flippo. Let's let's let's let's speaking of offensive players.
Speaker 1: We go to offensive coordinator and the Jaguars do not
Speaker 1: have one currently. John D. Flippo and the Jaguars mutually
Speaker 1: agreed to part ways late last week and that job
Speaker 1: is still open for the Jaguars. The Filippo took a
Speaker 1: job with the Chicago Bears his quarterbacks touch pretty quickly.
Speaker 1: I read a article that said he got fired, and
Speaker 1: then the Jaguars released the statement that said that David
Speaker 1: statements said mutually agree to part ways. Jeff, do you
Speaker 1: think he mutually agreed to part ways where he's fired? Um, well,
Speaker 1: if you're a betting man, based on if I was
Speaker 1: a betting entertainment purposes. Yeah, because because here's that you
Speaker 1: never lasted more than a year as an offensive coordinator anywhere.
Speaker 1: And here's the thing. If you leave on your own,
Speaker 1: you then could argue whether his contract that he was
Speaker 1: out this year, which was a lot more than a
Speaker 1: quarterback coach would make, would not have to be honored.
Speaker 1: If you're fired, we gotta pay it. The team has
Speaker 1: to pay it. So if you were John D. Philippo,
Speaker 1: are you leaving without knowing you're getting that money paid? Um,
Speaker 1: if I've been fired every year for the last couple
Speaker 1: of years, I would probably not want to have an
Speaker 1: official firing added to my resume, and I would probably
Speaker 1: bypass the guaranteed money. So a little bit of reputation.
Speaker 1: Coordinators make one five quarterback coaches make five, going to
Speaker 1: our difference on average averages out there. So for a
Speaker 1: million dollars and have to millions like that, So for
Speaker 1: the delta of a million dollars, you'd say, I'd rather
Speaker 1: just say personally for me, I fire me all day exactly. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm working my tail off to be a good coordinator.
Speaker 1: I just want to make sure if you don't want
Speaker 1: me to fire me. But if I had been fired
Speaker 1: like a couple of times, and well, every year that
Speaker 1: I've ever been a coordinator or just twice, well every
Speaker 1: year that I've been a coordinator twice, that's every year.
Speaker 1: Then I might rethink the terms of my of my
Speaker 1: departure and maybe make it a little bit more amicable.
Speaker 1: Everyone knows anyway. I'm just saying, were you surprised, Um, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: a little bit, Tony, were you? I would know? Yes?
Speaker 1: And no, No, that doesn't surprise me because I don't
Speaker 1: think everything you hear just isn't working. Um. And I'm
Speaker 1: not even making any judgment of John D. Philippo was
Speaker 1: accordinated or not, just it didn't feel like a fit
Speaker 1: and um, So that that's why I didn't surprise that.
Speaker 1: I wasn't predicting this was gonna happen or anything like that,
Speaker 1: but didn't surprise when I read them, like okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: Now what is interesting to me is trying to find
Speaker 1: a replacement when you are really on a one year
Speaker 1: prove it deal as a coaching staff. That's then I
Speaker 1: did talk about this UM a couple of days ago,
Speaker 1: and my comment on that was, because of the situation,
Speaker 1: I think you're probably gonna be able to get an
Speaker 1: attract a guy who's been around the league for a while,
Speaker 1: who's not looking to climb the ladder, who's climbing the
Speaker 1: ladder already, is happy being a coach, is happy being isordinator.
Speaker 1: He's out, he's get back, been fired already, been there,
Speaker 1: done that doesn't he just wants to get back, wants
Speaker 1: to be a coordinator, you know. And maybe somebody that
Speaker 1: hasn't been out for long, maybe somebody that was recently
Speaker 1: fired this past year. There there's some offensive coordinators available.
Speaker 1: To give the name. Jeff Monkeys seemed to be pointing
Speaker 1: to a couple. I mean, Monk's a guy that was
Speaker 1: an offensive coordinator in Cleveland, although he didn't called plays. Uh,
Speaker 1: and he interviewed here before. I'm not mistaken. Uh. Look
Speaker 1: at every staff that that just got changed. Um, and
Speaker 1: then look at coordinators that got fired during the season
Speaker 1: last year. Wizzen Hunt was one of those guys. Um. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, so there's guys. I mean, heck, look at
Speaker 1: what the Miami Dolphins did bringing Chank Now that surprised me.
Speaker 1: That didn't surprise me out for two years like that,
Speaker 1: three years. He's a good offensive and I'm not good.
Speaker 1: But when you're out that long, Billy has been a
Speaker 1: really good offensive coordinator, and Chan is a good offensive coordinate.
Speaker 1: I'm just surprised him out that long wanted to get
Speaker 1: back in. He's been at it for a long time
Speaker 1: to yeah, no he's not. But my point was about
Speaker 1: somebody that would be interested in that positions, somebody like
Speaker 1: a Chan Gailly or like a Hunt. They wants to
Speaker 1: get back. They've been around and and they just want
Speaker 1: to coach. And uh and they realized what the deal
Speaker 1: is because they all they've been there, they've done that,
Speaker 1: they've been through it, and it doesn't surprise them, or
Speaker 1: doesn't they've got thick skin. Put it that way, They've
Speaker 1: already got thick skin. The other interesting thing is so
Speaker 1: d Philibo comes in, new system, comes in, worked with
Speaker 1: Nick Foles before Foles, but just an overall new system. Now, Uh,
Speaker 1: my guess has changed a lot of the language in
Speaker 1: terminology that Nathaniel Hackett used. Changed everything. I mean they,
Speaker 1: I mean, yes, okay, changed everything. Now you have you're
Speaker 1: bringing a new coordinator that's gonna do it again. And
Speaker 1: by the way, you are in a one year proven
Speaker 1: deal as a staff, and so you have zero time
Speaker 1: and they still haven't hired anyone. So this individual has
Speaker 1: to come in teach all the staff. And are you
Speaker 1: going to if you hire one of these or do
Speaker 1: you are do you learn? Or if you hire one
Speaker 1: of these guys? What happens when he says, Hey, the
Speaker 1: only way I'm coming I want to bring these two
Speaker 1: guys with me. Well, you got a couple openings every one? Really,
Speaker 1: um you've an offensive assistant John Donovan coach, but I'm couple.
Speaker 1: But sometimes these guys want to bring in. Hey, I
Speaker 1: got a UM whatever line coach, wide receiver coach. Just
Speaker 1: pick one and I for me to come in, I
Speaker 1: need him to come with me. How does that work?
Speaker 1: I mean, so there's just a lot of stuff about
Speaker 1: promoting from within? Did you promote? Who would Keenan? Do you?
Speaker 1: Kid has been around a while, Sure is a very
Speaker 1: good coach, never coordinated. But if you're Doug Maron, do
Speaker 1: you want to say I'm gonna put all my be
Speaker 1: an offensive? Possibly that anymore? I don't get that impression.
Speaker 1: But if you but here's the thing. If you're Doug
Speaker 1: and this is a one year we have to win
Speaker 1: to keep our jobs do you? And I'm not saying
Speaker 1: Keenan wouldn't be great. I think keen is a great coach.
Speaker 1: I've said before. I think he could be a head
Speaker 1: coach one day. I think he's an outstanding teacher. Commands respect.
Speaker 1: I really he's a great teammate, but I respect him
Speaker 1: what he's done. But if you're Doug, do you want
Speaker 1: to take your chances of giving a first year guy
Speaker 1: who's never coordinated again and saying we're throwing all our
Speaker 1: eggs in the basket right here, which typically and that's
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just saying that's a lot of typically.
Speaker 1: What for for a guy like Keenan to advance to
Speaker 1: an offense coordinator position, it's more likely to happen to
Speaker 1: where you had an offensive corps inator. You've been really
Speaker 1: good on all offense, the offensive coordinator leaves to take
Speaker 1: an advancement as a head coach, you're gonna bring him
Speaker 1: right up to continue that train moving along, you know,
Speaker 1: versus the situation they're in exactly. And so it's just
Speaker 1: interesting and then that we haven't spoke to the fact
Speaker 1: now you have a bunch of players, including a second
Speaker 1: year quarterback that right now in my opinion is the
Speaker 1: leading candidate to be the starter going in next year.
Speaker 1: That's the learning entire new system after this learning one
Speaker 1: from done before. Many times I'm not saying you can't.
Speaker 1: That's a good point. I didn't. He'll be good at it,
Speaker 1: no problem. That's why maybe he'll be better because we'll
Speaker 1: just keep on learning new systems. But it's just interesting,
Speaker 1: so a long way of saying not surprised, but interesting
Speaker 1: on timing. Interesting at being the last year, interesting to
Speaker 1: see who they get. Uh. Knowing that the current situation
Speaker 1: here with the ball club of having to win this,
Speaker 1: I will say that, uh, flip was pretty unique. And
Speaker 1: then I've never seen an offensive coordinator have a weekly
Speaker 1: press conference that he has an opening statement every week.
Speaker 1: That was pretty unique. He did. He did he would
Speaker 1: have like a an opening statement, but you never watched it.
Speaker 1: Every week. We watched I hope I watched some of it.
Speaker 1: I watched everybody's hope, everybody's having a good day. That
Speaker 1: was his first line every week. And then he would
Speaker 1: he would go through some general I watched topics that
Speaker 1: he would want to cover. But I mean most coordinators
Speaker 1: typically go to the podium and go hey, guys far away.
Speaker 1: He would go thought, Hey, I appreciate you guys being here,
Speaker 1: and then he would go on to talk about some
Speaker 1: things that he wanted to cover, and then he would
Speaker 1: kind of open it up for questions. It was very uh,
Speaker 1: very different, very kind of like the man head coach
Speaker 1: worst things. I mean, no, no, no, no, not being
Speaker 1: critical at all. I'm just saying it was very different.
Speaker 1: It was very different, and I appreciated some of his
Speaker 1: comments and that look, I think as a coach, a
Speaker 1: lot of times you get up there in front of
Speaker 1: the media and a lot of times do you get
Speaker 1: taken to where the questions take you. So I mean,
Speaker 1: I do appreciate that he would he would cover some
Speaker 1: topics that he wanted to cover and so uh and
Speaker 1: that's actually a pretty smart way of doing it before
Speaker 1: the questions direct you in a certain way. You have
Speaker 1: mentioned Gardner Minshew. His trek across America continues flying jets
Speaker 1: the other day Instagram and Instagram. If you're watching on
Speaker 1: Jaguars dot com, there he is with the Thunderbirds in Vegas. Sweet. Um.
Speaker 1: They painted his name on the cockpit and everything, so
Speaker 1: he was flying unbelievable. Um. He had a series of
Speaker 1: pictures with the Thunderbirds this week and stuff at gardner
Speaker 1: Menshew five on Instagram. If you want to follow along
Speaker 1: with Gardners trek across America in an RV, is he

Speaker 1: would bring if it was mere young single. When I
Speaker 1: was young, married some girls. But I'm single and I
Speaker 1: haven't met Angie yet. Um, I'm gonna take my buddies

Speaker 1: we'll cover practice for the Senior Bowl all week next
Speaker 1: week Jaguars dot Com. We'll be back Thursday in time
Speaker 1: for this program next week. Though. The Shrine Bowl when
Speaker 1: I played in it was in Palo Alto East West,
Speaker 1: and uh, then I played in the in the Blue
Speaker 1: Gray around Christmas Day. Dead bull right, it's not. I
Speaker 1: think it's changed like a high school game now or something.
Speaker 1: They still call it the Blue Gray, but it's not.
Speaker 1: It's not. It's not a Christmas It used to be
Speaker 1: Christmas Day in Montgomery. I was there for that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I bet that was fun. Not fun to I will
Speaker 1: say the East West Ryan game was was epic. It was,
Speaker 1: I mean, it was awesome. We had explained how it
Speaker 1: would be great for you. First of all, huh, I
Speaker 1: can keep it clean. Well. First of all, we had
Speaker 1: a great group of guys on the team that we
Speaker 1: had a great time working together in the daytime and
Speaker 1: in the nighttime. And uh, we had rental cars available
Speaker 1: to us a mistake, we had keys to a rental van.
Speaker 1: So we had a pretty good contention that that we
Speaker 1: would go out and have a great time. And I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna name names or anything, but we had a
Speaker 1: great time. And I will say that our coaching staff,
Speaker 1: and one of them in particular, wanted to hear the
Speaker 1: story every day the next morning, and that was Jimmy Johnson.
Speaker 1: Jimmy wanted to hear all about it. What did you
Speaker 1: guys do? Where'd you go? Tell me about it? He
Speaker 1: wanted to hear the whole sting. And he was actually
Speaker 1: he was the Miami coaching right He was the Miami coach,
Speaker 1: and it was right before he got the job with
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys, and he wasn't the head coach. Mike Godfrey,
Speaker 1: who was the head coach at Pitch, was the head
Speaker 1: coach of our East squad, and then Jimmy was an assistant.
Speaker 1: And then soon after that, Jimmy got the head job
Speaker 1: with the Dallas Cowboys. You were draft that he got
Speaker 1: the job in he got it and winner right after
Speaker 1: that game he got the job of the Dallas Cowboys
Speaker 1: and uh, and I actually had Dave Juan step come
Speaker 1: and work me out. And because obviously Jimmy had experience,
Speaker 1: Jimmy was actually the one that played me when I
Speaker 1: was at the East West Shrine Game, I was a
Speaker 1: mike backer. I think I told Tony the story before. Well,
Speaker 1: when I went to the East West Shrine Game, I
Speaker 1: played mike backer, outside linebacker, defensive end, and defensive tackle
Speaker 1: and those tackle all in that game. Wow, that was
Speaker 1: pretty cool and uh and it was great exposure for me.
Speaker 1: And thank you. I thank Jimmy to this day for
Speaker 1: giving me the opportunity to play move around so many
Speaker 1: different positions to show what I'm may be able to
Speaker 1: do at the National Football League level. So because when
Speaker 1: I was at the the Blue Gray Game on Christmas Day,
Speaker 1: I was I was a middle linebacker and that was it.
Speaker 1: So so it's cool. Tallest middle linebacker ever. Yeah, protypical.
Speaker 1: You're a prototypical What was the guy? Um wasn't Ted
Speaker 1: Hendricks totally different level players than me. I'm not trying
Speaker 1: to compare myself to him, but he was one of
Speaker 1: those taller backers. Yeah. I mean, that's just you don't
Speaker 1: see guys. Since the Pro Football Writers of America have
Speaker 1: announced their annual Rookie Awards, including the Rookie of the
Speaker 1: Year Nick Bosa defensive end from the forty Niners, the
Speaker 1: Offensive Rookie of the Year, Josh Jacobs from the Raiders,
Speaker 1: the running back, and the defensive Rookie of the Year.
Speaker 1: Of course, Nick Bosa with the forty Niners. They do
Speaker 1: have an All Rookie team as well by a position.
Speaker 1: The Jaguars have two players on that list this year,
Speaker 1: Jowan Taylor, who played every snap this season at right tackle,
Speaker 1: and Josh Allen the defensive end. Congratulations to them. I
Speaker 1: would argue that if you look at the numbers and
Speaker 1: the net amount of wins, Gardner Minshew should have been
Speaker 1: the Rookie of the Year quarterback. We played what twelve
Speaker 1: games I think would probably be the twelve games, more
Speaker 1: touch down, less interceptions, close in yardage, and had more
Speaker 1: wins in only twelve starts than anyone else did you're
Speaker 1: talking about. He should have been the starter on the
Speaker 1: on the pf w A All Rookie teams. That's the quarterback,
Speaker 1: and I could argue that he You could have argued
Speaker 1: that he was the offensive Rookie of the Year in
Speaker 1: the NFL if you looked at the entire entirety of
Speaker 1: what he did. Kyler Murray, I'm fine with Josh Jacobs,
Speaker 1: really good. I'm not saying but you could have argued,
Speaker 1: if you want to look at the year, Gardner was
Speaker 1: better than Kyler Murray. Kyler got the quarterback spot. I
Speaker 1: mean he won more games. Yeah, he had more touchdowns.
Speaker 1: Argue with you on that. Interceptions first, overall, picking the
Speaker 1: draft is gonna was gonna get difference on that, But
Speaker 1: we didn't ask. This isn't supposed to be the team
Speaker 1: of the highest draft picks. As who played the best
Speaker 1: Gardman you had? It was better than Kyler Murray this year.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's gonna be a better player overall,
Speaker 1: like I say, like his potential is higher than Kyle
Speaker 1: Murray saying this year if you just look at the
Speaker 1: production he was here, can't argue with that. I mean
Speaker 1: it's and here's the other thing, how are you not
Speaker 1: on this team if you had the most rookie of
Speaker 1: the weeks in the NFL. That's what kind of confused me.
Speaker 1: There was a fan vote the Rookie of the week
Speaker 1: things that was like a Pepsi deal or something and um,
Speaker 1: and then it were ended up he wasn't even on
Speaker 1: that list, nominated for the Player of the Year for
Speaker 1: that and he won the most event. That's the part
Speaker 1: that I stud he should have been on the list.
Speaker 1: I mean, look, if he doesn't get it, I'm okay
Speaker 1: with that, but at least he should be on the list. Yeah,
Speaker 1: six or seven Divisional. Okay, going to division week because
Speaker 1: it's about the same thing. Yeah, divisional results from last week,
Speaker 1: there was some um. I think the wild card weekend
Speaker 1: had to beat an excitement. But the Niners over the Vikings,
Speaker 1: the Titans over the Ravens, and a huge game for
Speaker 1: Henry again, the Chiefs Texans game. I don't think we
Speaker 1: will see one like that for a long time. And
Speaker 1: then the Packers knocked off the Seahawks. We didn't do
Speaker 1: very good on our picks, No, we did not. Just
Speaker 1: let everybody know, I don't remember when I picked. You've
Speaker 1: been picked all the home teams, with the exception of
Speaker 1: the Seahawks. And I do the same thing, and I'll say,
Speaker 1: it's been a long sports week in the City of Houston.
Speaker 1: Championship weekend, the schedule coming up, the a f C Championship,
Speaker 1: and what a game this is going to be the
Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans in the Kansas City Chiefs three or five
Speaker 1: Eastern time kickoff at Arrowhead on Sunday, then the NFC
Speaker 1: Championship game Green Bay and San Francisco at six forty
Speaker 1: Eastern from Legally Stadium in Santa Clara. Who do you
Speaker 1: like in these two? I'm gonna be doing the SC
Speaker 1: Championship game. I'll be in the booth with Kevin Harlan
Speaker 1: um something excited about how's the weather going to be?
Speaker 1: Maybe I refused to look into the last minute because
Speaker 1: if it's bad, I don't want to get the pressed. Um.
Speaker 1: But congrats on the call. That's that's gonna be great. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it to be fun. It's gonna be fun game. That
Speaker 1: game will be decided on how it starts. If Tennessee
Speaker 1: can get a lead to a ten point fourteen point lead,
Speaker 1: they will pound it and they will win the game
Speaker 1: because the Chiefs won't be able to hold up against
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry in that rushing attack. Tennessee can't play good
Speaker 1: enough defense. Tennessee can't play good enough defense to stop.
Speaker 1: I know, but you go back to that sure luck
Speaker 1: So you like the Chiefs, But okay, I'm telling you
Speaker 1: it's gonna be I like the Chiefs too. By the way,
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be close. Home teams and I
Speaker 1: think San Francisco blows the doors off the packer. Nor
