Speaker 1: the twenty fifth day of January, and we got you

13
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 1: covered now. Very rarely on this podcast, we'd like to

14
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 1: say rare and appropriate. Do we do sporty pod? We

15
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: normally don't do sporty pod. But one of the cool

16
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 1: things about this podcast is we both work on the

17
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,320
Speaker 1: radio during the week and every once in a while

18
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 1: somebody tries to sneak Danny, somebody tries to sneak something

19
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: through the back door on the weekend, thinking that no

20
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,399
Speaker 1: one's gonna pay attention, like I don't know the Dallas

21
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: Cowboys for example. Yeah, so I thought we would start

22
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: with that, and the news came down last night. I

23
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 1: don't I don't even know what time they announced it.

24
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 1: I started getting text messages. It was kind of late

25
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: in you know, here in California. So, I mean, the

26
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: Cowboys are in Dallas, They're a couple hours ahead of

27
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 1: where we are, so I'm not sure exactly when it

28
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: was announced. But the Dallas Cowboys, they've made a shoddy higher.

29
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: It's what they've made. Brian Schottenheimer has agreed to a deal.

30
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 1: He's gonna be the new Cowboy coach.

31
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 3: This is.

32
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: I know Jerry likes to be in control and all that,

33
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: and there were some stories this week that his kid,

34
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: Stephen Jones, is very cheap. He's a tightwad, a very

35
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 1: frugal person. Because that think about your Stephen Jones. You've

36
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: got no real talent, You've got no real skill. You're

37
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,800
Speaker 1: just writing daddy's coattails. Right when Jerry kicks the bucket,

38
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 1: Steven's just going to use the Dallas Cowboys as an

39
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,679
Speaker 1: ATM machine. You know, he needs petty cash, he'll just

40
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 1: use the Cowboys. So I understand from his perspective not

41
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: wanting to spend money, but man, what a buzzkill?

42
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 3: Right? What?

43
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 1: And Brian Schottenheimer, you gotta be joking. What in the world,

44
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: I mean, my god.

45
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 3: We're not a fan of these in house hirings.

46
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: Well, it's just it's so you're the Dallas pleeping cowboy.

47
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: Isn't this something like the Chicago Bears would do or Jacksonville?

48
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, very much so. And I remember hearing the promo

49
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 3: play of you on the Overnight Show talking about how

50
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 3: Dion would have been the perfect partner for Dallas.

51
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: Oh, it would have been great. It would have been wonderful.

52
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: Obviously for us, we're selfish sports content. It would have

53
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 1: been amazing. This is just it's it's it's rice cakes,

54
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 1: is what it is. It's pasta without sauce. It's Oh,

55
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: it's so bad. It's tofu. The Cowboys could have had

56
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 1: a nice prime rib and they said we want the

57
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,920
Speaker 1: tofu And I read somewhere I don't I don't remember

58
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 1: where I read this, but I was snooping around last night.

59
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 3: You know.

60
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: Friday night was one of those nights, Danny where I

61
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: was like, I kind of wish I like having a

62
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: little break, but I kind of wish we had the

63
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: radio show to rant about the Cowboys. I was Jones

64
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 1: and and then I was like, oh I can come

65
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 1: in here, you know, tomorrow morning and be able to rant.

66
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: So here we are.

67
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, and you were off the air when

68
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 3: the Pete Carroll news broke right.

69
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, Well we'll get to that. That's on

70
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: my big board. I know it is not a list,

71
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 1: not a list, but I read this. This blew my mind.

72
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 1: So Brian Schottenheimer first interviewed for a head coaching job

73
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 1: with the Miami Dolphins. With the Miami Dolphins, that was

74
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:20,160
Speaker 1: after Nick Saban left following the twenty zh six season.

75
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:24,479
Speaker 1: So if my math is Cort, that's almost twenty years

76
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: where Brian Schottenheimer was fussing around the NFL, going from

77
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 1: job to job to job to job, and now he finally,

78
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: after after all this time, is now an NFL head coach.

79
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 1: And he didn't even call the plays in It's very bizarre.

80
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 1: He was the offensive coordinator, he wasn't the play caller.

81
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy very hands on in Dallas. I cannot wait

82
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 1: till Monday. The Cowboys have scheduled a news conference for

83
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:05,039
Speaker 1: Monday more eleven o'clock local time, noon in the East,

84
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: and that's nine am here in LA. But they're going

85
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 1: to formally introduce Brian Schottenheimer as the latest head coach

86
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,840
Speaker 1: of the Dallas Cowboys. And if you want to see

87
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 1: bull shoy on display, wait until you hear Jerry Jones

88
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 1: get up there and sell. Sell. He will sell the

89
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 1: soap for Brian Schottenheimer. He'll put on his straw hat

90
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 1: and he will be Carnival Barker Jerry Jones. I can't

91
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 1: wait to see that. But man, what a what a

92
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 1: buzz kill, What a kick to your balls if you're

93
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 1: a Cowboy fan, because you're like, well, Jerry's gonna at

94
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: least go out and get a decent coach. This is.

95
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 3: It is this week of not just them wanting to

96
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 3: save money, but Jerry needing the control. And so that's

97
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 3: why he went with an in house guy.

98
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: Well there are well yeah, I mean that's I mean,

99
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 1: I think that's a fair and a quality point. But

100
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,919
Speaker 1: there are levels to this, dandy, right, I mean, you

101
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 1: are going this is Dave Campbell, like is what this is?

102
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,839
Speaker 1: If you remember years ago when they hired Dave Campo

103
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 1: and that was the only other Cowboy head coach to

104
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 1: be hired without experience as ahead. Now, listen, I don't.

105
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: I'm all for people getting opportunities and all that.

106
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 3: I just don't.

107
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 1: I never thought of the Cowboys as a starter job.

108
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:30,840
Speaker 1: I never thought Jacksonville starter job, Chicago Bears starter job.

109
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: I'd never thought that Dallas Cowboys were a starter job.

110
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:38,119
Speaker 1: So the Mallord report card on the Dallas Cowboys coaching,

111
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 1: they get an F. Cowboys malor report card in F

112
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 1: because you and I very rarely give f's, I very

113
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,920
Speaker 1: really give fs. But this is an F. Like what

114
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,040
Speaker 1: are you doing now? The Cowboys are behind the eight

115
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: ball anyway, because Dak Prescott, as long as he's there,

116
00:06:54,720 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 1: they're cooked. But the storyline that popped up this week

117
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 1: from from Dallas is that there's a I guess, a

118
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 1: weird power stoke. I don't know how Jerry Jones would

119
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 1: give any power up. He's he's going to ride this

120
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: thing until he goes to the convalescent home. And like Steven,

121
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: don't want to spend any money, and you know, Jerry wanted

122
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 1: to sign everybody, and so they made a compromise where

123
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 1: Jerry paid Dak Prescott, but nobody else really got paid.

124
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: So now you've got a quarterback that has a fatal flaw.

125
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 1: He's got a glitch in big games, and you've got

126
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 1: that going for you. And then on the other side,

127
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 1: you've got this roster who's a hodgepodge. They are not

128
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 1: not much there. So, my god, that is a four

129
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: year deal. He won't be there four years, No chance,

130
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 1: no chance. Man, he's been in the NFL. God, he's

131
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 1: been there. How many years? It's been probably twenty years.

132
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 1: He's fifty one now, maybe not yeah, probably over twenty

133
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 1: twenty now the story. I was getting some messages from

134
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 1: Cowboy fans last night and they were like, well, yeah,

135
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: he's not a great code, but he'll just be overseeing everything.

136
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: And Matt Eberflus. They're selling Matt Eberflus. This is how

137
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 1: bad the Cowboys are. They're selling well, they're gonna have

138
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: a great defense because Matt Eberflus is the defense of

139
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: forty eight. Okay, well damn do okay by your Cowboys

140
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 1: season tickets right now. Wow, everyone is pointing and laughing

141
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:33,319
Speaker 1: at the Dallas Cowboys. And this is just validates all

142
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:37,959
Speaker 1: the noise about Jerry Jones and the Cowboys. It substantiates

143
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: all the talk that they have no idea what they're doing.

144
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: But in Jerry's eyes, Danny, I'll bet you Jerry Jones

145
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,439
Speaker 1: is like, man, this is great. You know, as long

146
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 1: as you talk about it, make sure you get you

147
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,079
Speaker 1: pronounce my name the right way, everything is good.

148
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, last night, around seven pm our time is when

149
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 3: this story broke and I pulled the comments back up

150
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,319
Speaker 3: that I was can have from last night. First Cowboys

151
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:06,840
Speaker 3: fan says JJ doing what JJ does best, that's taking

152
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 3: the money while making sure his team wins nothing. The

153
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:14,200
Speaker 3: next Cowboy fan, Dave Campo, just rolled over in his grave.

154
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 3: Another puppet coach. Jerry Jones is one of the most

155
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 3: disappointing owners in modern sports, a complete failure as a GM,

156
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 3: and the only thing he's ever been all in on

157
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 3: is his ego. What is Shane It's tragic.

158
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:36,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's pretty wild. It's pretty wild, and you

159
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:41,440
Speaker 1: know it'll it'll it's so bad. In many ways, it's

160
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 1: good and people have talked about Jerry Jones. I had

161
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: up one of my my buddies. We've talked about this

162
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 1: on previous episodes of The Overnight Show, that he's he's

163
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 1: a he's a he's a modern day When you think

164
00:09:55,120 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 1: of the greatest promoter, the greatest showman in American history

165
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:09,679
Speaker 1: all time, just complete showmanship, arrogance, all of that. Going back,

166
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 1: you've got to go to P. T. Barnum. To me,

167
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, I know he went around

168
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 1: when I was alive, and you know I wasn't alive

169
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 1: when he was around. But from what I've read about P. T. Barnum,

170
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 1: he's the king. But Jerry Jones I'm trying to wrap

171
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,199
Speaker 1: my head around. And as far as the the owner

172
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 1: of the count, he's like Jim Henson. You remember Jim Henson,

173
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 1: the guy that created the Muppets. It's like a puppet show.

174
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 1: It's it's an absolute puppet show with with with Jerry Jones.

175
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 1: But he'll get out there on Monday and he'll grand

176
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: stand around and he'll swanp and strut and he'll have

177
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 1: like I said, I'll have the straw hat. He'll have

178
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 1: the red and white striped shirt on or jacket, and

179
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,680
Speaker 1: he'll be working his magic is what he's gonna do.

180
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 3: And by the way, ap Jim Henson, Jerry Jones outlived him.

181
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 3: Well there, you know, Yeah, Jim Henson died years ago pneumonia.

182
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 1: Oh well, that's what he said.

183
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 3: I don't know if that was Yeah, he died too young.

184
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 3: That was.

185
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 1: That was the time they covered some stuff up on that.

186
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 1: Now Dave, Dave Campbell still alive? You think, what do

187
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 1: you think? Dave Campo still alive, by the way.

188
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 3: Still he is. Why did that person say was rolling

189
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:24,839
Speaker 3: in his grave.

190
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 1: For comedic reasons? Did Campbo seven years old?

191
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 3: Whoa?

192
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 1: Yeah? And his last job was a consultant for a

193
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 1: USC and one of those no show jobs. But yeah,

194
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: Dave Campbell is still still around, one of the great

195
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 1: Dallas cowboys. But what an ear that was. They went

196
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 1: from chan Gaily to Dave Campbo and now they've got

197
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 1: Ryan Schottenheimer and somewhere Mike McCarthy's laughing while eating a

198
00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: bowl of pasta fetichini Alfredo. He's laughing. Yeah, And I

199
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 1: don't want to I don't.

200
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:06,839
Speaker 3: You gave an f ESPN and gave this a C.

201
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 1: Well, no, no, A C is when you don't you

202
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 1: don't really know what you're getting. Brian. I remember when

203
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 1: Brian Schottneimer was the offensive coordinator for the Jets and

204
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 1: we used to lampoon him this is back when they

205
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 1: had like Mark Sanchez, and they had really good defenses

206
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 1: with Rex Ryan, and the offense was incompetent. And I'm

207
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 1: trying to go back. I went through my notes and

208
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 1: I couldn't. My notes don't go back that far. I

209
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 1: didn't save that stuff because I'm not a total loser.

210
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:39,439
Speaker 1: But I remember there was several controversies when he was

211
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 1: with the Jets, and even in Seattle, I recall there

212
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 1: were some some issues there. So hey, listen, it's an

213
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: f because you were flirting with Dion Sanders all of

214
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:55,839
Speaker 1: that RAS mctaz and everything, and then you go and

215
00:12:55,880 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 1: bring in this guy. I mean, just a cup of

216
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:05,439
Speaker 1: room temperature lukewarm water. That's it's lukewarm.

217
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 3: That is Yeah. But Ben Schottenheimer dazzled Steven Jones and

218
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 3: Vice president of player Personnel Will McLay after he met

219
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:18,119
Speaker 3: with them, and he has a strong relationship with quarterback

220
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 3: Dak Prescott and has connected well with people inside the organization.

221
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 3: This according to ESPN.

222
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, well it's a perfect nickname shoddy because this is

223
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 1: a shoddy higher by the Dallas Cowboys. But hey, now

224
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 1: maybe people will go back and play this podcast ten

225
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 1: years from now when the Cowboys have won seven Super

226
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 1: Bowls and all that, and can you believe how wrong

227
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:44,200
Speaker 1: that was these two idiots on the podcast. Well, that's fine.

228
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: We do the show right now, right, Danny, We do

229
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,479
Speaker 1: the show today. It's the twenty fifth of January, Saturday,

230
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 1: and as of this morning, as of early in the

231
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 1: morning here, way too early to be up, by the way,

232
00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 1: I am thumbs down. Now do you what are you

233
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 1: given on the Danny G report card?

234
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 3: I guess I would give it a C minus. Oh

235
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 3: I a.

236
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 1: Man boo that man?

237
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 3: Well he because here's the caveat. I don't know what

238
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 3: he's going to do as far as his staff goes.

239
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 3: That's going to play a big role in this, because honestly,

240
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 3: look at the head coaches around the league, they really

241
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 3: are as good as their quarterback and their OC and

242
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 3: their DC. I want to see who he puts on

243
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 3: his staff.

244
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 1: Well, I've already made my mind up, and he's the

245
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: Netpo coach. Remember we used to goof on Lebron's kid

246
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 1: for being the net Bo baby. Well, this is the

247
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 1: Nepo baby of coaching. And I know there's a ton

248
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 1: of them, right I understand. I mean your dad, and

249
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 1: Marty Schottenheimer. God, I mean, I'm so old. I interviewed

250
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 1: Schottenheimer several times, but many many teams he coached coming

251
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 1: in to play the Chargers in San Diego. He actually

252
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 1: coached the Chargers in San Diego too. But you know,

253
00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 1: the NFL is a multi billion dollar business where the

254
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: easiest way to get in is your dad coach in

255
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 1: the NFL. Your grandfather, Sean McVay, Shanahan, most of these guys.

256
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,240
Speaker 3: Howard Stearn's dad was in radio.

257
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, as I point out, Danny, my connection my dad

258
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: was in Ham radio. Fortunately not commercial radio. But if

259
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 1: you had been in commercial radio, I might you know,

260
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 1: I'd be doing like a morning show somewhere or something

261
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 1: like that.

262
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 3: But hey, listen, my dad made license plates.

263
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 1: Your dad was was very good at making small rocks

264
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:37,520
Speaker 1: or big rock small rocks. Right to do that. And

265
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 1: now we get don't bear the lead, my man, don't

266
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 1: bear the lead. We get to the Hila monster in

267
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 1: the room. A greatness of the radis Danny. I know

268
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 1: that you've had some time now to says Pete Carroll,

269
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 1: You're gonna become the oldest head coach in NFL history.

270
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 1: Next season. He's gonna turn seventy four years young. Your

271
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 1: opening thought, Danny, on you as a lifelong Raider fan,

272
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 1: someone that if you we cut you open, black and

273
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 1: silver or silver and black will fall out of you,

274
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 1: which is probably not good. You might want to see

275
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 1: a doctor. But this is your squad, Danny, this is

276
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 1: your coach. Pete Carroll. Doesn't he seem like the antithesis

277
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 1: of the tough, hard ass raider, the old school raider.

278
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 2: You know.

279
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 3: I like his sort of leadership. I know a lot

280
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 3: of it is raw, raw, but he also has been

281
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 3: a winning coach. He's also had a bad defense there

282
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 3: at the end of his run in Seattle. So I'm

283
00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,040
Speaker 3: interested to see if they can extend and give a

284
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 3: bigger deal to Patrick Graham and keep him in place

285
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,880
Speaker 3: as their defensive coordinator. Very very interested to see who

286
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,159
Speaker 3: he brings in as his OC. As far as the

287
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 3: Raiders needing like a glue guy, a guy that brings

288
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 3: the organization, the squad together. This could be a sneaky

289
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:23,160
Speaker 3: good hire. At first, I was like, because of the age,

290
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,800
Speaker 3: you know, Ben, I'll take it from Rob g who

291
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,919
Speaker 3: was arguing with Rob Parker on the air Friday afternoon

292
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 3: Friday evening, and I was laughing because your buddy Rob

293
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 3: Parker was saying the Raiders were just going for a

294
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:42,879
Speaker 3: big name. This guy's oldest dirt is he gonna coach

295
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 3: from a wheelchair?

296
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 1: Wow?

297
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 3: All this agism all over the Odd Couple show. Rob

298
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 3: g got on his mic and said, mister Parker, if

299
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,199
Speaker 3: we couldn't give people jobs because of their age, you

300
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,160
Speaker 3: would have been off this network and off TV back

301
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 3: in two thousand and six.

302
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: Whoa shots by it?

303
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:06,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, he said he would have been aged out of

304
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 3: the media business a while ago. Yeah, so I don't know. Hey,

305
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:13,919
Speaker 3: I'll kick it to you. What do you think about

306
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,879
Speaker 3: the age? You think it's gonna take a year or

307
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 3: two to get this thing built up? And then at

308
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 3: that point he's a little too old or his age

309
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 3: really just a number because the guy's so damn healthy.

310
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 1: Yeah. So, I'm not one of those guys every time

311
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,359
Speaker 1: you hire a coach you're like, well, we're gonna end

312
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:32,879
Speaker 1: up this guy's gonna be the next the coach for

313
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:36,199
Speaker 1: the next ten years. I'm not that guy, right, And

314
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:40,359
Speaker 1: the Raiders all they do is change coaches, right, It's

315
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 1: non stop with the coaching change. So my philosophy. I've

316
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: evolved my philosophy over the years when it comes to

317
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 1: hiring coaches. Right, it's like Huey Lewis and the News,

318
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: We're not here for a long time, We're here for

319
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: a good time. And and I actually think that Pete Carroll,

320
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 1: it's not an outrageous take. He knows what he's doing.

321
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 1: And if I'm not mistaken, he's five years younger than

322
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 1: the President of the United States, the Honorable Donald Trump,

323
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,920
Speaker 1: who's in the White House, and so he's not even

324
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: as old as the President, So that you got me's close.

325
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 1: But and I was texting some people when I found

326
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,679
Speaker 1: out about that. I actually found out that this was

327
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,959
Speaker 1: likely going to happen. And the sense I got was

328
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 1: that the main reason Pete Carroll was hired the Raiders

329
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:33,640
Speaker 1: and you know this, Danny, the late game situations were atrocious.

330
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,960
Speaker 1: And as much as I you know, I loved Antonio

331
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: Pierce for many reasons, and I wanted to see that workout.

332
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 3: He was his consultants, Marvin Lewis and what's his face,

333
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 3: formerly of the Giants, Yeah, yeah, what's his name. I

334
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 3: emptied him out of my brain because those guys suck.

335
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 3: If you're the consultants and you're walking around the sidelines

336
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 3: or you're up in one of the boots, why aren't

337
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 3: you hell being Antonio Pierce with clock management. There's all

338
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,680
Speaker 3: these damn cooks in the kitchen and none of them

339
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 3: could make toast.

340
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, well they made toast and it was burd toast

341
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 1: is what they made. And you know the thing about

342
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,919
Speaker 1: it with the uh, the Raiders, Pete Carroll, that is

343
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:22,399
Speaker 1: one of his claims the fame that he's got a

344
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 1: great record and they don't they don't screw things up

345
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 1: in terms of when to call time out game management situations.

346
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:34,439
Speaker 1: He will spoon feed who he asked to spoon feed

347
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 1: and that is his biggest priority as a coach. So

348
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 1: from that standpoint, okay, so on the malor report card,

349
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,120
Speaker 1: I'm actually gonna give this a B a B minus

350
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,960
Speaker 1: on the mal report card because.

351
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 3: No, stick to your b. That sounded better. Uh well, no,

352
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,480
Speaker 3: be mine, which is, by the way, it was Tom Coughlin.

353
00:20:54,720 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, Tom Coughlin, Thank you, Tom, emphasis on cough Yeah no,

354
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: but I listen, Carol will do very well. Plus as

355
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:09,920
Speaker 1: an added bonus back at Packed ten media day at

356
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 1: the believe it was the Marriott Hotel near Lax. He

357
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 1: blew me off at a hotel near Lax. Pete Carroll

358
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 1: used the malor iPhone to call in to at that time.

359
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 1: I think it was like AM eleven fifty, which was

360
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 1: the sports station in la and he was coaching at USC.

361
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 1: So there was a bond that we had, me and

362
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:40,920
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll. And this is also validation, Danny, that it's

363
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 1: validation that Pete Carroll was even though they said he

364
00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 1: just left on his own. He was fired by the

365
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 1: seattlec They claimed he was retirement and all that because

366
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 1: he's winning his coach in franchise history. But they got

367
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 1: rid of him.

368
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, they thought after they pushed after they pushed him out,

369
00:21:58,440 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 3: he wanted to try to get back in.

370
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 1: Remember, Oh yeah, no, no, for sure, I mean he

371
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 1: wanted he want to back and hey, good for him.

372
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 1: And the other thing about this, how many stories did

373
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,960
Speaker 1: we we hear over the last couple of months. Well,

374
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a lot different now Tom Brady's there

375
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 1: and he's going to go in there and they're gonna

376
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:22,200
Speaker 1: change everything. And so Tom tom Brady was a he's

377
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 1: a big owner of the Raiders. Here's some constructive criticism.

378
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:29,199
Speaker 1: He hired one of his old college teammates to be

379
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: the GM and UH and and then I assume he

380
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 1: recommended Pete Carroll, someone he coached against, who, to me,

381
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,639
Speaker 1: is the kind of guy that if Tom Brady hadn't

382
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 1: even been involved, that's the kind of guy that I

383
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,879
Speaker 1: think Mark Davis might have hired, Right, I don't. I

384
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:51,680
Speaker 1: don't think it's outrageous to think that if Brady had

385
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:56,440
Speaker 1: just been golfing somewhere in Florida, that Mark Davis might

386
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 1: have just said, all right, we'll hire this guy. Because

387
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 1: we've both been around Pete Carroll and he is a

388
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: he is a sweetheart of a guy. Right, he can

389
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:10,440
Speaker 1: talk your ear off, he's he's just got that different gab.

390
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 1: He's got that Fengali effect as and so.

391
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:18,400
Speaker 3: But what with Mark Davis, you never know, he could

392
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:22,680
Speaker 3: have very well promoted Patrick Graham, who's been interviewing elsewhere

393
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,680
Speaker 3: for head coaching gigs. He could have pulled a move

394
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,120
Speaker 3: like that. He could have pulled a Jerry Jones type move.

395
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 1: Well, they they hired Pierce who was the interim guy.

396
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 1: And but I think they did that because remember they

397
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:41,120
Speaker 1: didn't hire rich Pasakia Pasaca. Yeah.

398
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 3: Remember people, So you think Mark Davis would have overcorrected

399
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 3: by getting the most experienced guy out there like Pete Carroll.

400
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:54,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and plug again Pete, I cannot. I have

401
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 1: nothing baddest about Pete's a bit of a bullshit artist,

402
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 1: but other than that, he's charismatic and he's just he's

403
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 1: a likable, approachable guy. And he has started to me

404
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,159
Speaker 1: look a little older. But he's in his seventies, for

405
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,720
Speaker 1: God's sakes, but he's still crazy. He's still got more energy.

406
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 1: I mean, these guys, maybe we all be when we're

407
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 1: getting older, Danny, you know, when we get to that point,

408
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,920
Speaker 1: may we be like Donald Trump and Pete Carroll? Yeah,

409
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 1: and not Joe Biden when it comes to moving around,

410
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 1: you know what I'm talking about.

411
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, And he's a very competitive guy. When he was

412
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,760
Speaker 3: pacing the sidelines for the Seahawks, I always felt like

413
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,639
Speaker 3: they could get back into games. Like you said, he

414
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 3: was great at managing the end of games, and that

415
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:41,119
Speaker 3: is something that Raider Nation is gonna love here. I

416
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 3: do hope that they get a modern offense in place

417
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 3: with a really good OC. We'll see what happens with

418
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,399
Speaker 3: that other thing. I would add, Ben, for all the

419
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 3: critics who say, and this is another thing that Kelvin

420
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 3: and your boy Parker were going off about, they don't

421
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:02,960
Speaker 3: have a cornerback. The Morning Show with Jonas Knox, they

422
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,879
Speaker 3: were doing the same thing. They don't even have a quarterback.

423
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 3: So do you think that that's gonna be the case

424
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,160
Speaker 3: when next season starts.

425
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,080
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure they're not gonna play ten on eleven

426
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 1: that they will. Someone will be playing quarterback for the

427
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:16,440
Speaker 1: r right.

428
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 3: And it's not gonna be the backup eight and O'Connell.

429
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 3: The Raiders. Right now, as things sit, ninety three million

430
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 3: dollars of cap space, and that is the second most

431
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 3: in the NFL right now, and that number is gonna

432
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 3: get bigger once other roster moves are made this offseason.

433
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,359
Speaker 1: Now, Danny, you know how I feel about the salary

434
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:40,159
Speaker 1: cap eyes me nuts, drives me insane.

435
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,200
Speaker 3: But what I'm saying is, you can go get yourself

436
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,359
Speaker 3: a quarterback, either at number six in the draft, or

437
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,679
Speaker 3: you could buy yourself a quarterback, or you could do

438
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 3: both and get a bridge guy and let a youngster

439
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 3: sit for a season behind your bridge QB. So something

440
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 3: is going to be done. I understand what you're saying

441
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,639
Speaker 3: about Brady's influence with the coach, but we're really gonna

442
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 3: see if Brady has real influence here with the quarterback situation.

443
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 1: Well, and that's that's a sophie's choice. All right, you

444
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:14,119
Speaker 1: make the call, Danny G. I'm gonna put you on

445
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: the hot seat. Are you ready, Danny G? All right,

446
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 1: toss up question. You are the general manager le Raiders.

447
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 1: You have two options good quarterback. You can either sign

448
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, who's Pete Carroll's puppet, a free agent available,

449
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 1: Russ you know, bring Russ in mister unlimited, or Sam Donald.

450
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:37,200
Speaker 1: Those are your options.

451
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not touching Russell Wilson.

452
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:41,359
Speaker 1: So you'd go Sam Donald.

453
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 3: Really, I would go Sam darn my god, don't I

454
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 3: would go Sam Donald. Well, here's the here's the contingency plan.

455
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 3: I'd go Sam Donald with some of that money, which

456
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 3: you don't care. It's not our money. We always talk

457
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 3: about that. End it first round at number six. If

458
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,040
Speaker 3: you're not going to get Shador Sanders, go ahead and

459
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:04,119
Speaker 3: get Ashton Genty so that you have one of the

460
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 3: best running backs all of the sudden because they lost

461
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 3: Josh Jacobs and that hurt them tremendously this past season.

462
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 3: Get yourself a cash cow at running back, and then

463
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:18,440
Speaker 3: in the second round you draft old miss star Jackson

464
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 3: Dart who needs probably a season to sit behind a

465
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:25,240
Speaker 3: veteran once he joins an NFL team. That's the way

466
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:25,880
Speaker 3: I would roll.

467
00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, Pete seventy gonna be seventy four, I don't think.

468
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 3: But hey, you could win, just like the Vikings proved

469
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,400
Speaker 3: you could win with Sam Darnold right now.

470
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 1: Well, you can't in that Yeah, I mean in that division.

471
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 1: People said it was a good division. They didn't win

472
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:43,640
Speaker 1: a game in the playoffs, did they. I don't think

473
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,639
Speaker 1: anyone in that division won a game. Green Bay lost

474
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:50,359
Speaker 1: to Philadelphia, Vikings lost the Rams, and the Lions lost

475
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,439
Speaker 1: to the to the Command. But yeah, you know, one

476
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 1: a bunch of games here in the regular season.

477
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,320
Speaker 3: So well, I think they're going to add another wide receiver,

478
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:02,240
Speaker 3: give Jacobe Meyers some more money, a new contract. You

479
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 3: got Brock Bauers, you got weapons, beef up that Max

480
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:10,640
Speaker 3: Crosby led defense. You get a healthy Christian Wilkins back

481
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,360
Speaker 3: in the middle. They got some parts to work with

482
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 3: the problem is going to be depth. That's been the

483
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 3: problem for their team for years now. Once the starters

484
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:23,679
Speaker 3: go down injured, they're sunk because their backups would be

485
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 3: third or fourth stringers on other good teams.

486
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:33,120
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, we have done a solid sporty podcast, and

487
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 1: I mean, this is amazing. We're doing sporty pod on

488
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: the weekend here. But we I'm glad we have another

489
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 1: story that got completely buried since we're doing all sporty

490
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:49,480
Speaker 1: all the time. Is Bobby Slowick, who was the Flavor

491
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 1: of the Month last year. He's the Texans offensive coordinatord Day. Yeah,

492
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 1: well not anymore. He was excommunicated from the Houston Texans

493
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 1: as Friday was Take Out the Trash Day in the NFL.

494
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 1: You had you announced things that you know are not

495
00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 1: going to be that popular on Friday because most people

496
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 1: don't pay that much attention on Friday night, Saturday and Sunday,

497
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 1: and then they, you know, because they're doing other things.

498
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:21,280
Speaker 1: But Bobby Slowick was boy wondered. This is the I

499
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 1: says year. Every every season there's a hot shot coordinator

500
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 1: or two, and most of them flame out. Most of

501
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,560
Speaker 1: them flame out, and Bobby Slowick has been let go

502
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 1: by the Texans and he was interviewing for head coaching

503
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 1: jobs and now he's looking for a job, so maybe

504
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 1: he'll be the Raiders offensive coordinator. Dan he come to

505
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 1: join Pete Carroll with.

506
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 3: A raid, I wouldn't be mad at that. Well, I

507
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:49,960
Speaker 3: mean a lot of stuff happened to the Texans, as

508
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 3: you know this past season. They lost Stefan Diggs, there

509
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 3: were a lot of injuries to that offense. They still

510
00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:00,400
Speaker 3: were decent. There must have been some internal problems, but

511
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 3: I think he's a good oc.

512
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,360
Speaker 1: Nah Diamond dozen diamond, doesn't I don't know.

513
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 3: That better than Shot Nimer.

514
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,280
Speaker 1: Why don't we Why don't we put the ball on this?

515
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 1: How about that day?

516
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,360

00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 1: That's right, and you Danny Bingley, the Raider insider on

521
00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 1: the Pulse of the Silver and Black, gave us that perspective.
