Now, if you haven't noticed, there's a little 38 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,959 Speaker 2: bit of a lull here going on. All right, there's 39 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 2: a lot of all of a sudden, you lose your crutches. 40 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 2: You know, you got to learn how to Oh boy, 41 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,679 Speaker 2: there's not really a whole lot of football. We've got 42 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 2: this break between the conference championship games and the Super 43 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 2: Bowl and so there's a lot of you know, opportunity 44 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 2: here for people to take the throne if you will, 45 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 2: or to borrow some of that exposure. For example, there's 46 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 2: a UFC event coming on later on tonight. Okay, pretty 47 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 2: good card, Alex Volkanowski, one of the greats. Great card. 48 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 2: The Royal Rumble is kicking off of the WIAWWE. There's 49 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 2: a lot happening here. There's opportunities. You got Tory Pines, 50 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 2: one of the great golf courses being showcased, the Australian Open. 51 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 2: Whenever the hell that's going on, who knows because of 52 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 2: the time changes and all that. But the point is 53 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 2: there's an opportunity here. And then you got the NBA. 54 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 2: Who if you just opened your eyes and said, hey, 55 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 2: what's going on in the NBA right now? Here's what 56 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 2: we got. Jannison Tetakoumpo is probably going to get traded 57 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 2: and he's injured. John Morant probably going to get traded, 58 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 2: and they're not happy with him because he's you know, 59 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 2: we used a bunch of fake guns and things like 60 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 2: that in the car oh oh, and by the way, 61 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 2: Paul George suspended twenty five games for violating the NBA's 62 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 2: anti drug policy. Now, if you'd like to know Paul 63 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 2: George's statement to Sham Sharani of ESPN is the following quote. 64 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 2: Over the past few years, I've discussed the importance of 65 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 2: mental health, and in the course of recently seeking treatment 66 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 2: for an issue of my own, I made the mistake 67 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 2: of taking an improper medication. I take full responsibility for 68 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 2: my actions and apologize to the Sixers organization, my teammates, 69 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 2: and the Philly fans for my poor decision making during 70 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 2: this process. I'm focused on using this time to make 71 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 2: sure that my mind and body are in the best 72 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 2: condition to help the team win when I return. All right, 73 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 2: that from Paul George. Listen, Unless this is like, you know, 74 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 2: the guys, you know, burning a spoon in an alleyway 75 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 2: somewhere with Delante West, or he's stacking a speedball with like, 76 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 2: you know, fifteen grams of amphetamines and he's, on top 77 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 2: of that, he's using steroids. Unless it's something just drastic. 78 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:03,920 Speaker 2: Who cares? All right, who cares? Maybe he did some ayahuasca. 79 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 2: Maybe he wanted to see if aliens existed. Maybe he 80 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 2: wanted to go and give Bigfoot of massage. And said, Hey, 81 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 2: if I could look at Toad, I could just disappear 82 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 2: and go to a far away place. Hey, whatever you 83 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 2: want to do, that's your business. Who cares. I don't care. 84 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 2: Not my problem. Here's the more pressing issue. You have 85 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 2: an opportunity to showcase your league. There's a lot of 86 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,799 Speaker 2: people that you know, have not been watching the NBA. 87 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 2: They've been watching football, they've been paying close attention to football. 88 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 2: You got an opportunity here, and all you hear about 89 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 2: is crap. And you can look at this and say, well, 90 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,679 Speaker 2: you're you're not watching the games for like the great 91 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 2: storylines present them to me. How do I know what 92 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 2: your special is unless you tell me. When you sit 93 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 2: down and they're going through the menu, the first thing 94 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 2: they tell you, here's our special. I don't see it 95 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,600 Speaker 2: on the menu, but you told me so. How about 96 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 2: you present the product in a different way. But the 97 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 2: NBA doesn't do that. The lead is the drama. Yana 98 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 2: is not happy going to get traded. Ja Morant not 99 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 2: happy going to get traded. I think Draymond Green said 100 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 2: something about, you know, a Caucasian ref putting his hand 101 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 2: in his or something like that. Who knows that could 102 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 2: have been Ai. I have no idea, but this is 103 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,840 Speaker 2: what you're selling, Like, this is what you're giving us. 104 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 2: I mean, what's next another Kardashian dating a player? Like 105 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 2: what do we got? Like, at least give us something 106 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 2: that we can sync our teeth into and really have 107 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 2: fun with. How about you have another official gamble on games? 108 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 6: Do that? 109 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 2: Give Terry Rose You're an exemption? Let him be part 110 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 2: of the Dunk contest and let him hand out to 111 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,479 Speaker 2: a couple of winners for the super Bowl, Like like, 112 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 2: let's do something fun here, But instead all we get 113 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,919 Speaker 2: is this garbage. So I'd like to congratulate the NBA. 114 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 2: You had an opportunity here, there was an opening here 115 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 2: to showcase your league, and all we got is spoiled superstars, 116 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 2: race baiting and drugs. Tremendous job, tremendous league. Can't wait 117 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 2: to cover it all in depth in a little over 118 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 2: a week. Command you know, I do have a question though, 119 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 2: for Adam Silver in the entire league, all these people 120 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 2: Sham Sharania, who cover it, Paul George who you know, 121 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 2: Apparently the guy was you know, smoking weed off a 122 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 2: coffee table and you know, stumbled upon some powdery substance 123 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 2: or who knows what he did. But I don't want 124 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 2: to make false accusation. But I got a question for you. 125 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 2: Though you ever got brackfast, Well, now listen, you ever 126 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 2: wipe with a piece of dry toilet paper and water? 127 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 2: Is this as good as it gets? It's not switched 128 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 2: to life changing wet extra large flushable dude wipes because 129 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 2: Wedder just cleans better. Available at Amazon and at major 130 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 2: retailers nationwide. Dudewives best clean pants down from that crack 131 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 2: to this one to smoke crack, don't you look? I 132 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 2: understand that we're all trying to make this make sense, 133 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 2: and we're all trying to piece everything together and reverse 134 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 2: engineer the logic and reasoning to something. The reason why 135 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 2: it's taking so long to do that is because it's 136 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 2: not possible. And I'm talking about the Bill Belichick Hall 137 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 2: of Fame sub conversation that continues on. Apparently, Jerry Dulik 138 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 2: of the Pittsburgh Post Gazette had a piece in his 139 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 2: article that said the following. To be elected, a candidate 140 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 2: has to receive at least eighty percent of the votes 141 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,679 Speaker 2: or in this instance, forty of the fifty. Belichick, according 142 00:08:55,720 --> 00:09:00,080 Speaker 2: to a published report, did not he received thirty nine? Okay, 143 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 2: thirty nine, thirty eight, thirty five, five one negative eighteen, 144 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 2: negative thirty two. Whatever the number is, it wasn't forty. 145 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:16,079 Speaker 2: And more importantly, whatever the number is, it wasn't fifty. 146 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 2: And you can use any sort of logic you want, 147 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 2: you can talk about well, you know there was a 148 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 2: report that came out, Well they pointed to his record 149 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 2: without Tom Brady. Okay, Okay, that's how we're doing this, 150 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 2: all right, Okay, Oh but you know it's spygate. Okay, 151 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,719 Speaker 2: you've literally got coaches in the Hall of Fame acknowledging. 152 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I'd have done that too. Eh, we're good man, 153 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 2: No big deal. But okay, everyone trying to make sense 154 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 2: of it all. Hey, you know what this is why? Well, 155 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 2: this is how we came to the inclusion. No, the 156 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 2: conclusion was wrong. You can try and justify it any 157 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 2: which way you can. You can come up with all 158 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 2: the different reasons and examples and the numbers to no, no, no, stop, 159 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 2: it's wrong. It's preposterous, it's ridiculous, it doesn't make any sense. 160 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 2: The guy's a Hall of Famer. Well, you know, it's 161 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 2: the uh it's it's the whole you know the the process, 162 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 2: and and you know the number of votes you have 163 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 2: to get, and it's it's really more about about how 164 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 2: this is going. No, man, it's pretty cut and dry. 165 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 2: You hall of famer spell check out a Hall of 166 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 2: fame resume. Yes, okay, what are we talking about here? 167 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 6: Well? 168 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 2: You know, no, no, no, I don't. I don't want to 169 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 2: hear anything. Okay, I don't want to hear anything. If 170 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 2: I walk into my son is urinating on the wall 171 00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 2: in his room, I'm not going to say, hey, what's 172 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 2: going on here? Like like, tell me was it the weather? 173 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 2: Was it? No, it's why are you doing that? You 174 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 2: can't do that. It's not a urinal stop. It's just 175 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,839 Speaker 2: that simple. We don't need to make this more complicated. 176 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 2: We don't need to do deeper dives and put the 177 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 2: numbers together and have people talking. Well, you know, he 178 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 2: did get thirty nine, sweet, he didn't get fifty. You 179 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 2: know what I'm gonna do if, for whatever reason, I 180 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 2: fool around in my wife, you know what I'm gonna do. 181 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell her. Look, I know what you're thinking. 182 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 2: But for what it's worth, all last month I was 183 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 2: straight like listen, like eight listen. I know, look, I know, 184 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 2: I know how this looks. I know how you're feeling 185 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 2: right now. But last month, right up until this month, 186 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 2: like eleven of the twelve of the last year, I 187 00:11:55,920 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 2: was good. She'll kick me in the balls, probably pull 188 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 2: out a knife, and then you're gonna read about me 189 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:06,319 Speaker 2: in an article somewhere. That's what's gonna happen. This doesn't 190 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 2: make any sense. It's a cut and dry situation. Belichick 191 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 2: should be in the Hall of Fame. He shouldn't have 192 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 2: to wait fifteen minutes, let alone another year. The whole 193 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 2: punishment of it all, well, you know the spy game. 194 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 2: We got to make him wait a year. Okay, so 195 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 2: even you, even you acknowledge the guy's a Hall of Famer, 196 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:30,679 Speaker 2: just not this year. And then you've got people out 197 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 2: there that are acknowledging. Yeah, there are some people that 198 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 2: hold a little bit of a they've got an agenda, okay, 199 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 2: but those people probably shouldn't be doing the voting right. 200 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 2: Same thing with Terrell Owens, Well he was rude to 201 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 2: the media. 202 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:44,559 Speaker 5: So what. 203 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 2: Who like, it's not his job to be nice to 204 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 2: the media. Was he a great player? Yes, Was he 205 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 2: a Hall of Fame player? Yes, we're gonna make him 206 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 2: wait three years. Why, well, we didn't like his attitude. 207 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 2: What okay, you want to go through Hall of Fames? 208 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 2: I think I have this correct. Ty Cobbs a Hall 209 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:12,079 Speaker 2: of Famer. Pretty sure he murdered somebody, you know. So 210 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 2: if we're gonna play this game and try and go 211 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 2: back in time and make the math work and try 212 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 2: and make it all make sense, at some point you 213 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 2: just gotta stop, pull back and say, if we've got 214 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 2: to go to this much trouble to try and make 215 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 2: something make sense, maybe ultimately it never made any sense 216 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 2: from the get go at the Jonas Knocks on X 217 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:35,959 Speaker 2: at Jonas Knock Show on Instagram.

All right, 268 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 2: So there was big news in the NFL yesterday surprising 269 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 2: news to some. Quescia Doopa Mensa the general manager of 270 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 2: the Vikings now former general manager because he was fired 271 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 2: by the team yesterday. So the feeling was that there 272 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 2: was surprise around the NFL, but maybe not so much 273 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 2: surprise inside the building there, and maybe not so much 274 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 2: surprise about how this whole thing transpired, especially with you know, 275 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 2: insiders and reporters gathering and talking, you know, over the 276 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 2: past several days. So not that big of a shock, 277 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 2: but you know, to a lot of us, kind of 278 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 2: felt like a Friday news dump a little bit. You know, 279 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 2: he gets clipped and you're thinking, man, they just gave 280 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 2: him an extension last offseason. A lot went on. You know, 281 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 2: it was a disappointing year, but they still won nine games. 282 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 2: It's not like they were awful. The Vikings still won 283 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:07,880 Speaker 2: nine games, but nonetheless gets clipped, and so immediately the 284 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 2: conversation turns to the Sam Donald component. You let Sam 285 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 2: Donald walk. Now he's playing for a Super Bowl next weekend. 286 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 2: Meanwhile you're out of the playoffs and all of that. 287 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 2: So Questia Dopa Mensa did speak with the media. This 288 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 2: was obviously when he was still GM of the Vikings. 289 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 2: He did speak and he discussed that decision and their 290 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 2: overall view of the organization. 291 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:36,919 Speaker 9: There's those nights that you wake up and start the 292 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,719 Speaker 9: ceiling and ask yourself. But I always go back to 293 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 9: the process and what we thought at the time. It's 294 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 9: easier to kind of go and be revisionists and results based, 295 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 9: but going to really think through what we had at 296 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 9: the time, I still understand why we did what we did. 297 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 9: The results maybe didn't play out the way we did 298 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,360 Speaker 9: we wanted them to, but you know, ultimately, I think 299 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 9: that at the end of the day that we could have 300 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 9: executed better in certain places. I always go back to 301 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 9: the process and what we thought at the time. It's 302 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 9: easier to kind of go and be revisionists and results based, 303 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 9: but going to really think through what we had at 304 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:15,440 Speaker 9: the time, I still understand why we did what we did. 305 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 9: The results maybe didn't play out the way we did 306 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 9: we wanted them to, but you know, ultimately, I think 307 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 9: at the end of the day that we could have 308 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 9: executed better in certain places. And I don't want to 309 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,640 Speaker 9: say individually in terms of particular player, but just execute 310 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 9: and better knowing what the room was play style wise, 311 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 9: experience wise, and just kind of really put together a 312 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 9: better combination of people collective in that group. That's kind 313 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 9: of the thing I've probably focused on the most. 314 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,440 Speaker 2: So that was Questia Dopha Mensa, the former Vikings GM, 315 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:50,719 Speaker 2: explaining his rationale and decision making following the year and 316 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 2: the Vikings missing the postseason. So if you go back 317 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 2: to last year, because one of the storylines following last 318 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 2: year was what are the Vikings going to do with 319 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 2: Sam Donald? And according to some reports, Kevin O'Connell, the coach, 320 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 2: was in favor of keeping Sam Donald, but it was 321 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,400 Speaker 2: Quescia Dolfa Mensa and maybe some others who wanted to 322 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 2: go the route of JJ McCarthy. They felt like their 323 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 2: money was better used in other places and let's develop 324 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 2: our young quarterback. And apparently, and this was I believe 325 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,640 Speaker 2: it was Diana Rossini who reported on this, the Vikings' 326 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 2: decision is based on the fact that they thought that 327 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 2: they had a three year window, that there was a 328 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 2: three year window for them to compete for a Super Bowl, 329 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:44,439 Speaker 2: and well one of those years has gone, so the 330 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,640 Speaker 2: windows closed a little bit. And I think if you're 331 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 2: the Vikings organization or if you're a fan, the part 332 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 2: that bothers you maybe about the three year window notion 333 00:19:56,520 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 2: or thought process going into this past season is the 334 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 2: fact that there is no three year window. Okay, like 335 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 2: there's not. You can try and present it as we've 336 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 2: got a window, a championship window. You don't. You have 337 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 2: opportunities and either you cash in on those opportunities or 338 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:21,159 Speaker 2: you don't. And the Vikings had an opportunity, and they 339 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:25,159 Speaker 2: had an opportunity to really go for it, and they decided, no, 340 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 2: we're going to play it safe and we're going to 341 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,159 Speaker 2: try and manipulate the window. And it's one of my 342 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 2: favorite adages. It's you want to make God laugh. Tell 343 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:40,239 Speaker 2: them your plan. Whatever they thought their plan was, you 344 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 2: were dependent on thirty one other plans to follow suit. 345 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 2: And that's not the way this works. The Patriots window, 346 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 2: was it a three year window? Did the Patriots go 347 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 2: into this past season saying, you know, we got a 348 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 2: three year window. No, they just went out and said, hey, 349 00:20:58,040 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 2: we're going to try and be the best team we 350 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,919 Speaker 2: can possibly be and hopefully we're in this thing at 351 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 2: the end. And guess what it worked. Did the Seahawks, 352 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 2: upon signing Sam Darnold say, hey, we've got a window here, 353 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 2: like this is our window. No, they just realize we've 354 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,640 Speaker 2: got a really good defense, we've got talent. Let's add 355 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 2: a veteran quarterback. We moved on from Geno Smith. We 356 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 2: feel like that's going to be a better move for us, 357 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 2: and let's try and get this thing. We know weren't 358 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 2: a competitive division, but let's try and get this thing. 359 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,880 Speaker 2: The Vikings almost played with their food a little bit 360 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 2: and said no, no, no, no, we got this. We trust 361 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 2: the process, we trust JJ McCarthy. Yet, ultimately the decision 362 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 2: to go to JJ McCarthy. While you can point to 363 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 2: some of the free agent signings, some of the guys 364 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 2: in their draft class over the past couple of years 365 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 2: haven't been great, haven't really developed into what they thought 366 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 2: they were. There's a lot there. They got salary cap issues, 367 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 2: all of that. But while they're going through this, you've 368 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 2: got Detroit who's still competitive, green Bay who was just 369 00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 2: in the playoffs, and you got the Bears who came 370 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 2: out of nowhere, and it feels like that's got sustainability 371 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 2: moving forward. The Vikings almost took an arrogant approach to 372 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 2: this whole thing and said, na, we got this, We 373 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 2: got three, we got time to play. It's almost like 374 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 2: waiting till the last minute to do your homework lerk, 375 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,640 Speaker 2: or to do a school project. You're like, oh no, sen, 376 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:18,400 Speaker 2: I'll get I'll get it done on Sunday night. I'll 377 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,159 Speaker 2: get it done on Sunday night. And next thing you know, 378 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 2: it's Monday morning at four point thirty and you haven't 379 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 2: slept because you realize, oh god, I don't have that 380 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:29,679 Speaker 2: much time. Vikings don't have that much time, but they 381 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 2: thought they did. With Sam Donald at quarterback, you could 382 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,479 Speaker 2: have made a run. They were a nine and eighteen. 383 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,360 Speaker 2: You mean Sam Donald couldn't have gotten you a couple 384 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 2: of more wins just based on the fact that you 385 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 2: would have been available. And that's the other aspect of this. 386 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:50,199 Speaker 2: You chose JJ McCarthy not over just Sam Donald. You 387 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 2: chose them over Daniel Jones. You chose him over Aaron Rodgers. 388 00:22:56,640 --> 00:23:02,479 Speaker 2: And I ask you of those three quarterbacks, who did 389 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:08,680 Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy outplay this past season? None of them. So 390 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:13,880 Speaker 2: you whifted three times over all because you had a 391 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 2: window that never really existed. You just had an opportunity. 392 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:22,919 Speaker 2: And so I think the organization looked at this and 393 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 2: said all right, we were already leaning in this direction, 394 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,119 Speaker 2: and to see the way Darnold played, to see that 395 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 2: you can actually win big games with him, because a 396 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 2: lot of people pointed to his last two games with 397 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 2: the Vikings. There was a season finale against the Lions. 398 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 2: There was the playoff game against the Rams. He was 399 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:45,680 Speaker 2: not good. Got it, all is fair, But you banked 400 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 2: on those two games as opposed to the previous what 401 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:54,200 Speaker 2: fifteen sixteen games before that in which he played really 402 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 2: good football was in the MVP conversation. So the reason 403 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 2: why people aren't all that surprised in and around Minnesota 404 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,760 Speaker 2: and maybe some insiders, because I think everybody acknowledged, Man, 405 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 2: they played with their food. They tricked themselves into believing 406 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 2: that they had this opening that they could take their 407 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,639 Speaker 2: time with, not realizing, hey, man, clock's ticking and teams 408 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 2: around you aren't cooperating. And that ultimately is why the 409 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 2: Vikings made the move when they did. At the Jonas 410 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,159 Speaker 2: Knocks on x at Jonas Knox Show on Instagram and 411 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:29,879 Speaker 2: you can hang out with us as always again on 412 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 2: the iHeartRadio app. Right, it's coming up next here. Apparently 413 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 2: you know the A duo, a couple of guys who've 414 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 2: won a lot of games and done some big things 415 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 2: in the NFL. Apparently they're talking about getting back together. 416 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 2: We'll get into that for you right here on FSR. 417 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,159 Speaker 2: But for all the latest from around the world of sports, 418 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the one, the only, 419 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,439 Speaker 2: the majestic, Sir Isaac Longcross. 420 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 1: Why thank you, Jonas. The Philadelphia seventy six ers are 421 00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: going to be apart from Paul George for the next 422 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 1: twenty five games because today the NBA suspended George for 423 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 1: violating the anti drug policy. George said in a statement 424 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,159 Speaker 1: that he took an improper medication while being treated for 425 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 1: a mental health issue in the NFL. New York Giants 426 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:16,400 Speaker 1: chairman of the board and executive vice president Steve Tish 427 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 1: released a statement late last night after emails released by 428 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:23,199 Speaker 1: the Department of Justice Friday showed that convicted sex offender 429 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein connected multiple women with Tish in twenty thirteen 430 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 1: statement read quote, we had a brief association where we 431 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 1: exchanged emails about adult women, and in addition, we discussed movies, philanthropy, 432 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: and investments. I did not take him up on any 433 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,360 Speaker 1: of his invitations and never went to his island. As 434 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,439 Speaker 1: we all know now, he was a terrible person and 435 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 1: someone I deeply regret associating with your round. 436 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,119 Speaker 2: Of applause for Isaac Lohnkron.

I noticed that some prominent people who cover the 443 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:17,160 Speaker 1: NFL seem to have not referenced this story. 444 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 2: Oh, the the tish Epstein stuff. 445 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I'm yeah maybe maybe they they they took 446 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 1: a day off or something. 447 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 2: So it's weird how that works. No, it's yeah, we 448 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:29,880 Speaker 2: kind of kind of kind of bought how that works. 449 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 1: It's just coincidental. 450 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're just gonna we're gonna pass We're gonna pass 451 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 2: over that. And this was what twenty thirteen? 452 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 1: It was twenty thirteen, actually, No, I mean just to 453 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 1: kind of peek behind the curtain here, This in itself, 454 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 1: I think is a legitimate side note of this. I'm 455 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: looking at the NFL dot com web page, and it 456 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 1: says nothing about this. You know they have let's see, 457 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: they have ten news items, but this is this is 458 00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 1: not there. 459 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, you can't. Okay, I bought and paid 460 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 2: for it. Let's go live to our I have a 461 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,160 Speaker 2: thought on Epstein inside of Christoph Pepper the latest career. 462 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 1: You're very curious that our usual producer Bo Benson isn't 463 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: in today, of all days. I'm just g pointing this out. 464 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 2: Okay, well that's that's a fun accusation to make about 465 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 2: a coward. 466 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 1: What am I even accusing him of? All right, I'm 467 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 1: just noticing things. Hey, this just in Bo Benson files, 468 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 1: slander loss it and I'm just kidding. What is on 469 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:34,200 Speaker 1: the NFL dot com front page. The Buffalo Bills hiring 470 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 1: Denver Broncos defensive passing game coach Jim Leonard is their 471 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 1: new defensive coordinator. In tennis, Elena Rebaikina defeated Arena Sablenka 472 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: to when the Ladies singles final at the Australian Open today. Finally, Jonas, 473 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:52,119 Speaker 1: we have a Norwegian ski jumping crotch scandal. Update. 474 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 2: Right, I love Norwegian crotch. 475 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: I'll just take your word for it. The International Ski 476 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 1: and Snowboard Federation's ethics committee. I didn't even know that 477 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:07,440 Speaker 1: the International Ski and Snowboard Federation was an actual thing, 478 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,880 Speaker 1: let alone that they had an ethics committee. But anyway, 479 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 1: they have suspended two Norwegian ski jumping coaches, as well 480 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:19,880 Speaker 1: as a ski jumping suit technician for eighteen months after 481 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 1: they were caught illegally inserting extra stitching into the crotch 482 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 1: area of the ski jumping suits of their star jumpers. 483 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 1: The stitching made the crotch areas larger and more aerodynamic, 484 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 1: with the intent of adding distance to their jumps, to 485 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: the tune of as many as five or six meters. 486 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 1: Are you going ski jumping? Or are you just happy 487 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 1: to see me? Back to you, Jonas Isaac, you. 488 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 2: Know there's a lot of judgmental tone coming from you 489 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 2: in that update. Not everybody's as gifted as you, so 490 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 2: for you to pass some judgment like. 491 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 1: That, I didn't know this was a thing. Is there 492 00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 1: still time for me to qualify for the United State's 493 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 1: Olympic ski jumping team? Probably not so. 494 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 2: I don't understand if you add a little bit to 495 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 2: your crotch that's illegal. 496 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 1: No the suits were inspected. I did way too much 497 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 1: reading on this, but apparently you can only like have 498 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 1: three centimeters worth of material on in any respect, and 499 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: they actually inspect your suits. And then after these suits 500 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: had passed inspection, these jokers were caught on a video 501 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 1: that was anonymously posted to YouTube of them inserting this 502 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 1: extra stitching into the crotch area of the suits. So 503 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 1: apparently if you add you know, surface area to the 504 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 1: crotch area, if I can put it that way, may 505 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 1: that apparently makes the suits more aerodynamic. 506 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 2: I mean, just you know, how do we know that, 507 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 2: you know, maybe somebody need a little more room, you 508 00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 2: know what I mean? Yeah, I mean that's not one 509 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 2: size fits all. 510 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 1: Would for anybody that's not aware, that's something that you know, 511 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: you would not want to advertise. I suppose. 512 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, you know, if like if some guy 513 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 2: you know, rolls up to get suited and he's, you know, 514 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 2: got a loaf of bread down there, Like, I mean, 515 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 2: what do you want him to do? 516 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 1: A loaf of bread? 517 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 2: I'm just saying, like's he supposed to like stand there 518 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 2: and pretend like he's not you know, different than everybody else. 519 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 1: Well, then he would be like, apparently more aerodynamic and 520 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 1: wouldn't need to be enhanced with the extra stitching. Apparently. 521 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 2: Like you get some guy who walks in there and 522 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 2: he's like a human gas pump, and next thing you know, 523 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 2: they expect him to fit in those trousers that everybody 524 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 2: else is using. 525 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 1: Well, no, that's legal, just as long as the trousers 526 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 1: are are only three centimeters. I mean, if if this 527 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: guy was blessed in that certain regard, he wouldn't need 528 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: the extra stitching apparently. I mean, he'd be soaring all 529 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 1: the way, all the way to a gold medal. Apparently. 530 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 2: By the way, now we know why Isaac doesn't ski. 531 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 1: Huh what do you meaning? No? Like I said, is 532 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 1: there still time for me to make the Olympic team? 533 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 2: Good for you? 534 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 1: Admit it, you had no idea that ski jumping could 535 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 1: be this interesting. Back to you, Isaac, Lowingngron. 536 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 2: Puts a new meaning to the word low. 537 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 1: Seeing Milan and Courtina, all right, grow up. 538 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 2: It is Jonas Knox here on Fox Sports Radio. By 539 00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 2: the way, you ever wipe for the piece of dry 540 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 2: toilet paper and wondered is this as good as it gets? 541 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 2: It's not. How about you switched to life changing Wet 542 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 2: extra large flushable Dudewives because wetter just cleans better. Available 543 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 2: at Amazon and at major retailers nationwide. Dudewives best clean 544 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 2: pants down. All right, So this is a report for 545 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:48,719 Speaker 2: whatever it's worth. Who knows? This is report season rumor. 546 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 2: It is believed that quarterback Aaron Rodgers will return to 547 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,960 Speaker 2: the Steelers for twenty twenty six and run it back 548 00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 2: with his former head coach Mike McCarthy. Per tan Enterfi 549 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 2: for an NFL rumors, though it's always unconfirmed until you 550 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 2: hear it from Rogers himself. All Right, that's probably the 551 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 2: most important thing because there's a lot of speculation about 552 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 2: Rogers because he likes his privacy. I mean, you've had 553 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 2: people say that, you know, his wife is like some 554 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 2: chat bot or something like that, that she doesn't exist, 555 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:27,240 Speaker 2: like all of that crap. Here's what I would say. 556 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 2: I believe that he's going to come back for one 557 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 2: more year because why not. And you're probably thinking to yourself, well, yeah, 558 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 2: he would make sense, but does it make sense for 559 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 2: the Steelers? 560 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 3: All right? 561 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 2: Well what are the other options? But what are the options? 562 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,480 Speaker 2: Like we just talked about the Vikings, You know, they 563 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 2: made the move to move on from Sam Darnold, and 564 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 2: as it turned out, that was not a good move 565 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:55,240 Speaker 2: to move on to. Not Daniel Jones left Aaron Rodgers himself. 566 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 2: They didn't bring him in and they went with JJ McCarthy. 567 00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 2: But they went with JJ McCarthy while it was a pair, 568 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 2: not the right move based on the results, but at 569 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:08,479 Speaker 2: least they had an idea of what the plan was. 570 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 2: They had some sort of an idea. If you're the Steelers, 571 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 2: what's the plan? Like, you don't really have a quarterback 572 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 2: in the waiting. You have Will Howard, but that's a 573 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 2: developmental quarterback. He didn't play this year. You've got Mason Rudolph. 574 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 2: Mason Rudolph is the backup quarterback, but you don't really 575 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:30,440 Speaker 2: have somebody waiting in the wings. So why wouldn't you 576 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 2: bring Rogers back? Is he top of the league quarterback 577 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 2: like he was in his prime. No, But it's the 578 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 2: same thing I've said about the Mike McCarthy hiring. You 579 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 2: could do a lot worse than Mike McCarthy, and you 580 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 2: could do a lot worse than Mike McCarthy paired with 581 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers, Are you going to get the same results 582 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 2: you got when they first got together in Green Bay 583 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 2: and they won a Super Bowl. Most likely not, But 584 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 2: what is the alternative? You're not drafting high enough to 585 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 2: get a quarterback, and then this year in the draft, 586 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 2: maybe it's Ty Simpson. Maybe he's there when you're picking 587 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 2: at twenty one, maybe you're moving up. But as it 588 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,879 Speaker 2: stands right now, what is the better option going into 589 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 2: next year? So I buy it. I think Rogers comes back. 590 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,480 Speaker 2: I think he plays another year, one more year with 591 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 2: Mike McCarthy. They apparently are on good terms. McCarthy said 592 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,840 Speaker 2: it he would like him back. He's spoken to Aaron Rodgers. 593 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,800 Speaker 2: So if that rumor is true, if that report is true, 594 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 2: I buy it, and I think it makes a lot 595 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 2: of sense at the Jonas Knocks on X at Jonas 596 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 2: knock Show on Instagram.

Somebody will 660 00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:41,120 Speaker 2: buy it and you know, hopefully continues on in his 661 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:42,360 Speaker 2: journey next. 662 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:46,040 Speaker 6: Moll A Tory, a key member of the Miami Defense 663 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:47,960 Speaker 6: you made it all the way to the national title 664 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:51,440 Speaker 6: this year, plans to return for a rare eighth year 665 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 6: of eligibility in twenty twenty six. Jonas, do you care? Yeah, 666 00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:55,800 Speaker 6: I think it's great. 667 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 5: I love it here. 668 00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:00,200 Speaker 2: I think this is wonderful, you know, because look, why 669 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:02,840 Speaker 2: not a lot like some of these guys, you know, 670 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:04,880 Speaker 2: there isn't really a place to them in the NFL. 671 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 2: You know, maybe they're not going to be NFL players. 672 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 2: And so if you can go back and you can 673 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 2: make a few bucks and you can hang out with 674 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 2: your friends in college, especially in Miami like that. You 675 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:16,840 Speaker 2: don't think that guy's not buying kamikaze shots for his 676 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 2: teammates at some of the bars on South Beach. Listen, 677 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 2: go back, live your life. You can only do it 678 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 2: once and deal with the regrets later. 679 00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:31,240 Speaker 6: Next next, we got new Ravens offensive coordinator Declan Doyle 680 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 6: and QB Lamar Jackson are the same age, twenty nine 681 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 6: years old. 682 00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 3: Jonas, do you care? 683 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:39,759 Speaker 2: I do? I think that. Like, there's two teams that 684 00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 2: I'm fascinated. I'm fascinated by their decision making when it 685 00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:50,080 Speaker 2: comes to hiring coordinators. All right, this one because the 686 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 2: Baltimore Ravens decided we're going to go with Declan Doyle, 687 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 2: who's never called plays before. He was an offensive coordinator 688 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,439 Speaker 2: for one year under Ben Johnson with the Bears, never 689 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 2: called play. He's the youngest coordinator in the league, same 690 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,439 Speaker 2: age as his quarterback. And then Sean Manyon, who gets 691 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 2: the Eagles OC job. He's only been coaching for two years. 692 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 2: He was an offensive assistant in Green Bay and a 693 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:16,560 Speaker 2: quarterbacks coach and he's going to be OC in Philadelphia. 694 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 2: So it's a bold move. It's a move that I 695 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,640 Speaker 2: don't think a lot of people anticipated was going to happen. 696 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:24,400 Speaker 2: I think there was some thought that Decklan Doyle was 697 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:26,279 Speaker 2: going to go back to Chicago. I don't know that 698 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:28,960 Speaker 2: anybody thought Sean Manyon was going to get an opportunity 699 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:30,919 Speaker 2: to be in oc that these were just him going 700 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 2: through the interview process to get used to it. But 701 00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:36,120 Speaker 2: those two organizations are putting a lot of trust in young, 702 00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 2: inexperienced guys. But ultimately, you know who it's going to 703 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 2: fall on if the offensive struggle. Both those guys are 704 00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 2: going to get clipped. Next well, we're going on to 705 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:48,239 Speaker 2: the Browns here. Todd Monkin, the new head coach, set 706 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:51,160 Speaker 2: to Shador Sanders, their current quarterback, in the video posted 707 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:53,960 Speaker 2: on x Hey, we actually tried to draft you last year. 708 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 3: What do you think about that? Do you care? 709 00:39:56,400 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 2: No? Definitely not. I don't look the Browns problems. Man, 710 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:05,239 Speaker 2: they can't even hire a coach right without burning a 711 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:07,880 Speaker 2: bridge with Jim Schwartz and Shay. I know you're a 712 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 2: Browns fan. At some point you're gonna have to answer 713 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:14,320 Speaker 2: for some of these mistakes that this organization has made. Okay, 714 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,200 Speaker 2: you're gonna have to answer for it now. The way 715 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:19,600 Speaker 2: this whole thing would probably work out is that Deshaun 716 00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:22,320 Speaker 2: Watson is still on the team next year and wins 717 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,000 Speaker 2: Comeback Player of the Year and an MVP Award because 718 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 2: he all of a sudden finds, you know, what they 719 00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 2: brought him in for, and then it would be appropriate 720 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:31,920 Speaker 2: because then in the final years of his contract they 721 00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 2: would give him another contract extension. That's usually it works 722 00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:38,279 Speaker 2: for the Cleveland Browns. But like Shaud or Sanders, like, 723 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:41,799 Speaker 2: I don't know, the only reason this is even being 724 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:44,120 Speaker 2: brought up, or that he's even being talked about, is 725 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:46,440 Speaker 2: because of the should or buzz that he brings and 726 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:48,359 Speaker 2: the fact that he is a pro bowler. So there's 727 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:51,280 Speaker 2: good news for you Browns fans. Next, hopefully, I don't butcher. 728 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,719 Speaker 6: This Moscone Center will host the twenty twenty six Pro 729 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:59,799 Speaker 6: Bowl Games. Is the largest convention exhibit complex in San Francisco. 730 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:01,240 Speaker 3: Do you care, Jonas? 731 00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 2: No, God, no, and listen. Yeah, we'll be there on 732 00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:06,680 Speaker 2: Tuesday and we're going to spend three shows in the 733 00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,719 Speaker 2: Moscoon or Moscone Center, whatever they call it. I've been 734 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:13,880 Speaker 2: there before, back in twenty sixteen. It is a huge venue. 735 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:17,880 Speaker 2: The problem was there were some obstacles to get to 736 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 2: the venue, like in most places, like the obstacles to 737 00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:25,040 Speaker 2: get into certain places. It could be traffic, there could 738 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:27,759 Speaker 2: be road closures, there could be things going on with 739 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,920 Speaker 2: a giant event in town. But what's great about downtown 740 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:34,000 Speaker 2: San Francisco is that it's just you know, your typical 741 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 2: stroll to workday and you got to step over sleeping 742 00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:42,600 Speaker 2: bags and guys mixing stuff behind dark alleys. So have fun, everybody. 743 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:45,839 Speaker 2: Super Bowl sixties here and we're all excited about it. 744 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:49,360 Speaker 7: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 745 00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:52,760 Speaker 7: the nation.

So one of 758 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 2: the things we opened up with on the show was 759 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:39,680 Speaker 2: the kind of trying to make the math work after 760 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:41,200 Speaker 2: the fact. I mean, we did open up with the 761 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:44,640 Speaker 2: fact that Paul George is being suspended twenty five games 762 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 2: for violating the NBA's anti drug policy. Look, my stance 763 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:51,279 Speaker 2: on it is. I mean, you know, give me some 764 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:54,920 Speaker 2: details here, right, We're just gonna pop them. Twenty five games? 765 00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:57,200 Speaker 2: Is this Like I'm assuming this is not just a 766 00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:02,839 Speaker 2: marijuana issue. I'm assuming. Maybe I'm wrong. You know, if 767 00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:06,919 Speaker 2: he's you know, working on speedballs in the locker room 768 00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:11,120 Speaker 2: and he's got, like you know, Flaska Jack Daniels, a 769 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 2: blunt behind his ear and like a coffee table full 770 00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:16,719 Speaker 2: of coke, like that's a whole nother story. Like, I mean, 771 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:20,360 Speaker 2: what are we talking about here? Twenty five games is 772 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:22,880 Speaker 2: twenty five games? Is what it is. If we get 773 00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:24,560 Speaker 2: any details on that, we'll let you know. The other 774 00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 2: thing we open up with is the making the math 775 00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 2: work on the decision to not have Bill Belichick be 776 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:40,200 Speaker 2: a first time Hall of Famer, Like the heat this 777 00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:43,360 Speaker 2: whole you know, Jerry Dulik of the Pittsburgh Post Gazette, 778 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:45,440 Speaker 2: you know, wrote an article and said, well, you know 779 00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:48,920 Speaker 2: he only got he got thirty nine, just not forty 780 00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:51,920 Speaker 2: of the fifty votes. Okay, well he should have gotten fifty. 781 00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,400 Speaker 2: Like that's you know, forget about the forty that it takes. 782 00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:57,440 Speaker 2: He should have gotten fifty. And so they're you know, 783 00:43:57,440 --> 00:44:00,279 Speaker 2: everybody's got an excuse. Everybody's got an excuse as to 784 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:03,640 Speaker 2: why it didn't happen. Well, it's spygate and deflate gates 785 00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:07,920 Speaker 2: like okay, okay, all right, spygate. Okay, Well you know 786 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:11,120 Speaker 2: some have said, well look at his record without Tom Brady. 787 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:16,520 Speaker 2: It's okay, all right, okay, if we're gonna we're gonna 788 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:18,720 Speaker 2: play that game. It's like I've got all these different 789 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:22,479 Speaker 2: excuses when the reality is none of it matters because 790 00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:24,960 Speaker 2: none of it makes any sense. So you can try 791 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 2: and reverse engineer, as I said earlier, the math on 792 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:29,840 Speaker 2: all this stuff. None of it makes any sense. The 793 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 2: other part of it that I find hilarious is this 794 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:36,600 Speaker 2: whole the people that are standing on it, that are 795 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 2: that are really holding their ground, even the people that 796 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 2: are steadfast on it all acknowledge. Oh he's a Hall 797 00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:45,879 Speaker 2: of Famer. We're just gonna make him wait a year. 798 00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:53,080 Speaker 2: Sweet punishment, geeks. Wait, Wait, way to lay the law down, 799 00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:55,000 Speaker 2: Wait to let everybody know who's boss. 800 00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:56,319 Speaker 3: Ooh. 801 00:44:56,400 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 2: But it just goes to show you that the people 802 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,160 Speaker 2: people that are part of this process, the people that 803 00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:06,520 Speaker 2: vote on this who have agendas, and you can ask 804 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:09,239 Speaker 2: other people in the media and they'll tell you, yeah, listen, 805 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:12,200 Speaker 2: there's some people that hold grudges and they use it 806 00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 2: to punish you after your career. Meanwhile, Belichick, these players 807 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:21,799 Speaker 2: that they hold out for their reasons, Torell Owens being 808 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:25,240 Speaker 2: one of them. It's not like they played any more games. 809 00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:28,520 Speaker 2: Torell owns specifically after he retired. But now we're still 810 00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 2: going to make him wait three years because we didn't 811 00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:35,040 Speaker 2: like his attitude. It's that sort of thought process that 812 00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:39,320 Speaker 2: lets you know how much this vote means to those people, 813 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 2: so much so that they'll use it as a power 814 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:52,040 Speaker 2: play to try and manipulate the resume and the accomplishments 815 00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:55,759 Speaker 2: of a player or a coach in a league. And 816 00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:58,320 Speaker 2: then you got him not wanting this stuff to be released. 817 00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:02,920 Speaker 2: That's the other thing that's like one of the quiet 818 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 2: stories in all this is. You've got the Hall of 819 00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:08,440 Speaker 2: Fame voters who are up in arms wanting to know, 820 00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:12,040 Speaker 2: why was my vote being released? Why is this anybody's business? 821 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:15,680 Speaker 2: You know, our vote shouldn't have been released like this 822 00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:17,840 Speaker 2: is all. This is all private. This is supposed to 823 00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:20,400 Speaker 2: be kept in house. And well, hold on a second. 824 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:23,840 Speaker 2: If you do something that's egregious, and you do something 825 00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:29,040 Speaker 2: that's ridiculous, at the very least, you should be able 826 00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 2: to back up your reasoning. Why in boxing, in mixed 827 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:36,520 Speaker 2: martial arts, if you have a scorecard that is way 828 00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:38,800 Speaker 2: off that everybody looks at and says, hey, that doesn't 829 00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:40,560 Speaker 2: make any sense. And it happens a lot. Do you 830 00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:43,520 Speaker 2: know what they do? They call you in and you 831 00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:46,239 Speaker 2: were asked about it, and they ask you to explain 832 00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:50,640 Speaker 2: your reasoning. You may not like the reason they give you, 833 00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:53,840 Speaker 2: but if they give you their reason and their viewpoint 834 00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:57,719 Speaker 2: and then bandage point, you say, all right, we trust you. 835 00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:00,439 Speaker 2: It's why you have this job. We may maybe don't 836 00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:02,680 Speaker 2: agree with it, but we get where you're coming from. 837 00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:07,360 Speaker 2: There's nothing wrong with having to do that. When something 838 00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:09,960 Speaker 2: this agreed just goes on with this voting, there's nothing 839 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 2: wrong with that. And if somebody wants to ask you 840 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,360 Speaker 2: about it, don't get so sensitive and don't get so 841 00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 2: protective about it, because it just makes you look guilty. 842 00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:22,960 Speaker 2: Trust me, I've been there. I've been there. I remember 843 00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:26,600 Speaker 2: sitting in my car and my girlfriend at the time 844 00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:30,920 Speaker 2: asked to see my phone. I handed it over and 845 00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:34,000 Speaker 2: then realized there's something on there she probably shouldn't see, 846 00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:38,759 Speaker 2: and I took it back out of her hand. Do 847 00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:48,200 Speaker 2: you know why, because it was guilty? Guilty, of course. 848 00:47:48,239 --> 00:47:50,399 Speaker 2: I don't want you to see it. Yeah'm guilty. There's 849 00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 2: no whatever. What you're about to see you weren't supposed 850 00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:59,560 Speaker 2: to see. And I have no good logical explanation as 851 00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:06,440 Speaker 2: to why it's there other than hey, I went shopping 852 00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:08,319 Speaker 2: in another aisle. I don't have to tell you, all right, 853 00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:11,080 Speaker 2: I visited another store. I don't know what to tell you. 854 00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:15,000 Speaker 2: It's guilty. That's why I didn't want you to see it. 855 00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:19,160 Speaker 2: The reason these guys are so protective, these voters are 856 00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:21,120 Speaker 2: so protective over their votes and they don't want you 857 00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:23,399 Speaker 2: to see him, is because they know it doesn't make 858 00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:28,480 Speaker 2: sense their reasoning, their logic doesn't make sense. It's a 859 00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:31,840 Speaker 2: power play for them. They get to judge people after 860 00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:35,439 Speaker 2: the fact and determine the outcome of things. You've got 861 00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:39,120 Speaker 2: voters in the Hall of Fame for Major League Baseball 862 00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:46,640 Speaker 2: who specifically won't vote guys in first ballot unanimously because 863 00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:49,600 Speaker 2: such and such in the past didn't get in first ballot. 864 00:48:50,600 --> 00:48:51,120 Speaker 7: So what. 865 00:48:54,200 --> 00:49:00,160 Speaker 2: You don't have to go back in time and and 866 00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:03,680 Speaker 2: punish current players because other players happened, there was a 867 00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:06,960 Speaker 2: mistake made somewhere else. Why should they have to suffer 868 00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:09,560 Speaker 2: because somebody You don't need to double down on a 869 00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:12,400 Speaker 2: mistake that somebody else made just to keep the quote 870 00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:18,120 Speaker 2: unquote integrity of it all. It makes the whole process 871 00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:22,960 Speaker 2: look flawed. And if we're being honest, if you want 872 00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:25,920 Speaker 2: to look at the week the NFL's had, it's the 873 00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:29,799 Speaker 2: same thing going on with the Pro Bowl. Like I 874 00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:32,120 Speaker 2: open up the show and I'm you know, taking shots 875 00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:34,239 Speaker 2: at the NBA and you know, having fun with it 876 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:36,480 Speaker 2: and all, like, you know, we're busting balls. There's there's 877 00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:38,759 Speaker 2: a heavy sarcasm on this show if you haven't figured out, 878 00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:41,960 Speaker 2: and we're busting the NBA's balls because they got an 879 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:44,280 Speaker 2: opportunity here. You know, there's a lull in the NFL 880 00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:46,560 Speaker 2: calendar the Super Bowl is not till next weekend. There's 881 00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:49,960 Speaker 2: nothing really going on other than coaching hirings and rumors 882 00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:51,840 Speaker 2: and things like that. And what does the NBA do? 883 00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:55,480 Speaker 2: Joannis wants to be traded, he's unhappy, No, but he's injured. 884 00:49:56,040 --> 00:50:00,280 Speaker 2: Draymond Green talking about Caucasian officials or something along those lines, 885 00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:03,120 Speaker 2: and Paul George gets popped twenty five games for violating 886 00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:06,759 Speaker 2: the anti drug policy. It's like, you had an opportunity here, 887 00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:08,920 Speaker 2: and this is what you give us. If we're going 888 00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:11,120 Speaker 2: to play that same card, you got to go to 889 00:50:11,160 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 2: the NFL. This was a bad week for the NFL 890 00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:15,480 Speaker 2: when it came to the Hall of Fame and it 891 00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:18,640 Speaker 2: came to whatever you call the Pro Bowl now, the 892 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:23,760 Speaker 2: shidor Sanders stuff. It's a fiasco. So while the NFL 893 00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:26,919 Speaker 2: does a lot of things right, and while football does 894 00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:28,800 Speaker 2: a lot of things right, and it's why they're the 895 00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:30,759 Speaker 2: king of this whole thing, and it's why you know 896 00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:33,680 Speaker 2: the NFL's king, we get it. College football segment. 897 00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:34,440 Speaker 1: We got it. 898 00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:36,920 Speaker 2: And I'm as big a defender of the NFL and 899 00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:39,360 Speaker 2: I love the NFL as much as anybody, but we 900 00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:42,239 Speaker 2: got to call it like we see it. The Hall 901 00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:44,480 Speaker 2: of Fame and the Pro Bowl. Stuff from this week 902 00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:48,520 Speaker 2: is a bad look for the league. It's bad. It 903 00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:51,560 Speaker 2: makes you look petty in certain regards. It makes you 904 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:56,080 Speaker 2: look like you're trying to force things onto people that 905 00:50:56,160 --> 00:51:00,640 Speaker 2: they don't really want, which they've done before. Okay, we 906 00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:03,400 Speaker 2: all remember, we remember the COVID year, remember all that 907 00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:08,879 Speaker 2: stuff like this has not been a great week when 908 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:12,200 Speaker 2: it comes to those two things for the NFL. And 909 00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:17,360 Speaker 2: if this ultimately turns out to implement some changes done, 910 00:51:17,880 --> 00:51:21,239 Speaker 2: or we modify the Pro Bowl, or god forbid, get 911 00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:23,799 Speaker 2: it out of convention centers like they've got coming up 912 00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:26,120 Speaker 2: on Monday or Tuesday or whatever it is, because I 913 00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:29,480 Speaker 2: have no interest in seeing, you know, players who were 914 00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:31,840 Speaker 2: voted in third or fourth on the list because the 915 00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:34,680 Speaker 2: other guys didn't want to partake in a convention center event, 916 00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:37,719 Speaker 2: you know, playing beer pong and connect four with a 917 00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:39,919 Speaker 2: bunch of their other teammates. If you want to turn 918 00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:42,120 Speaker 2: this thing back into what it used to be, put 919 00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:45,640 Speaker 2: it back in Hawaii, make it prestigious, make it an honor. 920 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,120 Speaker 2: More guys will probably show up and not opt out, 921 00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:50,719 Speaker 2: then that's fine. If this implements some changes, I think 922 00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:52,959 Speaker 2: It's a good thing, but as it stands right now, 923 00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:56,600 Speaker 2: bad look for the NFL on both accounts at the 924 00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,680 Speaker 2: Jonas Knocks on X at Jonas Knock Show on Instagram, 925 00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:02,879 Speaker 2: and hang out with us as always on the iHeartRadio app. 926 00:52:02,880 --> 00:52:05,239 Speaker 2: I do have a question though, for you voters out 927 00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:09,720 Speaker 2: there who said Bill Belichick is not a first ballot 928 00:52:09,760 --> 00:52:13,279 Speaker 2: Hall of Famer.

You know, 981 00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:10,239 Speaker 2: what should you have done? Shouldn't let go of Sam 982 00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:13,000 Speaker 2: Donald because Sam Donald is now playing for a Super 983 00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:16,799 Speaker 2: Bowl and all that, and look, we all acknowledged that, Hey, 984 00:56:17,080 --> 00:56:19,520 Speaker 2: it didn't work out. The plan didn't work out, all right. 985 00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:23,480 Speaker 2: The Vikings got a little bit arrogant, a little bit 986 00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:27,839 Speaker 2: over their skis, started talking about championship windows. We got 987 00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:30,080 Speaker 2: a three year window. We got a three year window. 988 00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:33,319 Speaker 2: And it's like, eh, the window you think you have 989 00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:36,120 Speaker 2: and the reality of what the NFL presents you is different. 990 00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:39,520 Speaker 2: For example, how many people had the Seahawks and Patriots 991 00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:42,280 Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl. If you know one, you're lying. 992 00:56:44,560 --> 00:56:47,400 Speaker 2: So fluky stuff happens. I don't think a lot of 993 00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:50,200 Speaker 2: people expected it to go this way. I also don't 994 00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:53,680 Speaker 2: think that you can necessarily blame Quessia Dopha Mensa for 995 00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:56,960 Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy's health issues. I mean, he was banged up 996 00:56:57,000 --> 00:57:00,880 Speaker 2: going into last year. I thought, bring back Sam Donald 997 00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:03,279 Speaker 2: on a one year deal. There was some conversation out 998 00:57:03,320 --> 00:57:07,800 Speaker 2: there that apparently the Vikings were close to trading JJ 999 00:57:07,920 --> 00:57:12,319 Speaker 2: McCarthy to the Raiders, that there was some speculation maybe 1000 00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:14,560 Speaker 2: we go long term with Sam Donald, like there's just 1001 00:57:14,560 --> 00:57:17,880 Speaker 2: a lot going on there. But ultimately they decided to 1002 00:57:17,880 --> 00:57:20,640 Speaker 2: go to the route of JJ McCarthy. He was banged up, 1003 00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:24,480 Speaker 2: he was inconsistent. They missed the playoffs. Sam Donald goes 1004 00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:27,800 Speaker 2: to the Seahawks, they're in a super Bowl. Daniel Jones 1005 00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:30,480 Speaker 2: was very good, Aaron Rodgers was in the playoffs. Like, 1006 00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:32,560 Speaker 2: there's a lot you're looking at a lot of their exes, 1007 00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:36,080 Speaker 2: so to speak, go elsewhere and play better than JJ 1008 00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:38,480 Speaker 2: McCarthy did. So when you use that, you look at 1009 00:57:38,520 --> 00:57:41,400 Speaker 2: it and you go, well, that's a regrettable move. You 1010 00:57:41,440 --> 00:57:46,040 Speaker 2: could also say the same thing about Mike Rable. Why 1011 00:57:46,120 --> 00:57:49,920 Speaker 2: the Tennessee Titans decided they were better off without Mike 1012 00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:57,320 Speaker 2: Rabel is bizarre at best. The Vikings or the Tennessee 1013 00:57:57,360 --> 00:58:00,880 Speaker 2: Titans are awful. The Vikings are at least competed. The 1014 00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:07,200 Speaker 2: Titans are awful, and so Robert Salah takes over, and 1015 00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:10,320 Speaker 2: you know they wanted to change, you know, the physicality, 1016 00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:12,440 Speaker 2: the approach of the team. Like basically, you want Mike 1017 00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:16,200 Speaker 2: Rabel back. It's really what you're saying. He didn't want 1018 00:58:16,200 --> 00:58:21,680 Speaker 2: to leave. Rabel wanted to stay. All of a sudden, 1019 00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:23,120 Speaker 2: they call him in and they're like, yeah, we're gonna 1020 00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:27,360 Speaker 2: move on. Oh okay, And so he sat out a year. 1021 00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:30,720 Speaker 2: He waited. Him and Ben Johnson were the two hottest 1022 00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:33,440 Speaker 2: candidates out there, and as it turns out, both those 1023 00:58:33,440 --> 00:58:36,720 Speaker 2: guys made deep runs in the playoffs, and Mike Rabel's 1024 00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:38,600 Speaker 2: a game away from being a Super Bowl champion as 1025 00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:43,720 Speaker 2: a coach, But like Mike Frable, didn't want to leave Tennessee. 1026 00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:48,480 Speaker 2: So it's not just hey, we look at this game, 1027 00:58:48,760 --> 00:58:51,000 Speaker 2: and you could find regrets all over the place if 1028 00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:52,520 Speaker 2: you want to. But you look at this game and go, 1029 00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:56,000 Speaker 2: oh my god, what a regrettable move. The Vikings letting 1030 00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:58,760 Speaker 2: go of Sam Doronald got it. The Tennessee Titans letting 1031 00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:02,320 Speaker 2: go of Mike Frabel got it. But then there's ones 1032 00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:05,400 Speaker 2: where they try and force you into believing that there 1033 00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:07,919 Speaker 2: was real regret or real revenge and all the other 1034 00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:10,160 Speaker 2: things that came along with it, and it just doesn't 1035 00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:13,960 Speaker 2: really add up. Mike Silver of The Athletic had an 1036 00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:17,640 Speaker 2: article earlier this week and he talked about the Cooper 1037 00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:22,760 Speaker 2: Cup Los Angeles Rams split. You know, he detailed how 1038 00:59:22,920 --> 00:59:27,080 Speaker 2: ugly things had gotten, you know, they'd had, he'd had, 1039 00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:32,080 Speaker 2: Cooper Cup felt disrespected they let him go. Cooper Cup 1040 00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:36,200 Speaker 2: felt like the Rams were out there and cautioning potential 1041 00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:39,640 Speaker 2: suitors against against paying him anything more than the veteran minimum. 1042 00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:42,040 Speaker 2: They talked about his age and all that, and so 1043 00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:45,520 Speaker 2: there was real disgruntlement, Like Cooper Cup was not happy 1044 00:59:45,920 --> 00:59:47,920 Speaker 2: about what happened in the way that the Rams treated 1045 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:50,040 Speaker 2: him on his way out the door. And then he 1046 00:59:50,080 --> 00:59:53,040 Speaker 2: gets to Seattle and you see him come up with 1047 00:59:53,080 --> 00:59:55,080 Speaker 2: a couple of big plays in the NFC title Game, 1048 00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:58,040 Speaker 2: and now he's back in the Super Bowl. And so 1049 00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:02,680 Speaker 2: the way it's kind of being frame or presented as like, man, 1050 01:00:02,720 --> 01:00:07,080 Speaker 2: oh man, they let Cooper Cup go. Yeah, this is 1051 01:00:07,160 --> 01:00:09,200 Speaker 2: different than the Sam Darnold stuff and it's different than 1052 01:00:09,240 --> 01:00:16,200 Speaker 2: Mike Rabel. Cooper Cup couldn't stay healthy for years. Like 1053 01:00:16,280 --> 01:00:18,840 Speaker 2: you can say whatever you want about when he was 1054 01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:20,640 Speaker 2: there and he was Offensive Player of the Year and 1055 01:00:20,680 --> 01:00:22,320 Speaker 2: that was great and he got a big deal and 1056 01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:25,720 Speaker 2: all that's great. He couldn't stay healthy. He was not 1057 01:00:25,840 --> 01:00:30,040 Speaker 2: the same player. So the Rams decision to let him 1058 01:00:30,040 --> 01:00:32,760 Speaker 2: go wasn't a regrettable move that came back and bit 1059 01:00:32,840 --> 01:00:36,360 Speaker 2: him in the ass. There wasn't some move that all 1060 01:00:36,400 --> 01:00:39,080 Speaker 2: of a sudden turned out poorly and it really cost 1061 01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:41,200 Speaker 2: him in the NFC time that had nothing to do 1062 01:00:41,280 --> 01:00:43,000 Speaker 2: with the fact that the Rams aren't playing for a 1063 01:00:43,040 --> 01:00:45,280 Speaker 2: Super Bowl. The Rams probably aren't playing for a Super 1064 01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:47,880 Speaker 2: Bowl because there was some questionable decisions made. 1065 01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:48,480 Speaker 3: In the game. 1066 01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:50,440 Speaker 2: You know, for those of us who might have had 1067 01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:52,400 Speaker 2: the Rams plus two and a half could have helped 1068 01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:56,400 Speaker 2: us out tremendously. But I know that people are looking 1069 01:00:56,400 --> 01:00:58,959 Speaker 2: for storylines, and he want to find stuff to cling 1070 01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:03,600 Speaker 2: on to get the Sam Darnold one. You even want 1071 01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:04,920 Speaker 2: to go all the way back and tie it to 1072 01:01:04,920 --> 01:01:07,880 Speaker 2: the Jets. I get that one. I get the Mike 1073 01:01:07,960 --> 01:01:11,760 Speaker 2: Vrabel one. The Cooper Cup one doesn't exist. The Rams 1074 01:01:11,760 --> 01:01:14,520 Speaker 2: did the right thing, Pooka Naku as it stands right now, 1075 01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:17,360 Speaker 2: as a better player, arguably the offensive player of the year. 1076 01:01:18,560 --> 01:01:21,360 Speaker 2: Cooper Cup found a nice home, an a nice role 1077 01:01:21,360 --> 01:01:23,480 Speaker 2: with the Seattle Seahawks. He gets to go back home, 1078 01:01:24,080 --> 01:01:27,160 Speaker 2: but he hasn't been the same player. And if there's 1079 01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:29,400 Speaker 2: one organization you look at and if you want to 1080 01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:33,320 Speaker 2: question the Vikings front office and their decisions, that's fine. 1081 01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:35,480 Speaker 2: If you want to question the Tennessee Titans and their 1082 01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:39,200 Speaker 2: decision making, absolutely you should. But the one front office 1083 01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:44,040 Speaker 2: you probably shouldn't question is the Rams. They've done Okay, 1084 01:01:44,960 --> 01:01:47,320 Speaker 2: the Rams have done okay, they got a ton of 1085 01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:52,400 Speaker 2: calf space. They've already got a talented roster. You're assuming 1086 01:01:52,440 --> 01:01:55,040 Speaker 2: Matthew Stafford comes back for another year. He's probably gonna 1087 01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:57,800 Speaker 2: be the MVP. They've got an extra first round pick 1088 01:01:57,840 --> 01:02:02,840 Speaker 2: that they got from Atlanta. Like, the Rams are going 1089 01:02:02,920 --> 01:02:06,320 Speaker 2: to be fine. So, although we're trying to look for 1090 01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:08,640 Speaker 2: storylines and we're looking at regret and how could you 1091 01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:10,800 Speaker 2: let this guy go? The Cooper Cup one that we're 1092 01:02:10,800 --> 01:02:13,959 Speaker 2: trying you know, that was being portrayed and people trying 1093 01:02:13,960 --> 01:02:15,520 Speaker 2: to say, well, you know, he's back in a Super 1094 01:02:15,560 --> 01:02:18,480 Speaker 2: Bowl again, and he was stop. The Rams made the 1095 01:02:18,560 --> 01:02:21,520 Speaker 2: right move. It was time to move on. Everybody went 1096 01:02:21,560 --> 01:02:23,920 Speaker 2: their separate ways, and everybody's going to be fine in 1097 01:02:23,960 --> 01:02:26,520 Speaker 2: the long run at the Jonas Knocks on X at 1098 01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:29,160 Speaker 2: Jonas knock Show on Instagram and again you can hang 1099 01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:31,280 Speaker 2: out with us as always on the iHeartRadio app. All right, 1100 01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:34,160 Speaker 2: So coming up next here, there's a team in the 1101 01:02:34,280 --> 01:02:38,320 Speaker 2: NFL that thought, you know what, we're over it.

Apparently not. 1103 01:02:43,600 --> 01:02:45,600 Speaker 2: We'll tell you who they are right here on Fox 1104 01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:47,760 Speaker 2: Sports Radio.

George said in a statement 1110 01:03:06,880 --> 01:03:10,080 Speaker 1: that he took an improper medication while being treated for 1111 01:03:10,160 --> 01:03:13,200 Speaker 1: a mental health issue in the NFL. New York Giants 1112 01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:16,240 Speaker 1: chairman of the board and executive vice president Steve Tish 1113 01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:19,880 Speaker 1: released a statement late last night after emails released by 1114 01:03:19,880 --> 01:03:23,000 Speaker 1: the Department of Justice Friday showed that convicted sex offender 1115 01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:28,360 Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein connected multiple women with Tish. In twenty thirteen's statement, 1116 01:03:28,440 --> 01:03:31,680 Speaker 1: read quote, we had a brief association where we exchanged 1117 01:03:31,720 --> 01:03:36,480 Speaker 1: emails about adult women, and in addition, we discussed movies, philanthropy, 1118 01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:39,560 Speaker 1: and investments. I did not take him up on any 1119 01:03:39,600 --> 01:03:42,560 Speaker 1: of his invitations and never went to his island. As 1120 01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:44,680 Speaker 1: we all know now, he was a terrible person and 1121 01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:48,800 Speaker 1: someone I deeply regret associating with. Unquote.

Yes, okay, I. 1193 01:07:21,680 --> 01:07:25,040 Speaker 2: Think it was Tommy Bowden, who was the head coach 1194 01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:30,200 Speaker 2: of Clemson before Dabo Swinney. So he got fired and 1195 01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:33,760 Speaker 2: they were talking about it on the local news and. 1196 01:07:34,160 --> 01:07:36,760 Speaker 1: It was Tommy Bowden who was before Dabo Swenny. 1197 01:07:36,800 --> 01:07:39,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, so he got fired. And you can 1198 01:07:39,120 --> 01:07:42,120 Speaker 2: find it a clip on YouTube of a caller calling 1199 01:07:42,160 --> 01:07:45,920 Speaker 2: in to the local news in South Carolina and he 1200 01:07:46,040 --> 01:07:49,800 Speaker 2: breaks down and starts crying talking about the firing of 1201 01:07:49,840 --> 01:07:55,440 Speaker 2: Tommy Bowden, and the newscasters were just stunned, I mean 1202 01:07:55,520 --> 01:07:58,880 Speaker 2: absolutely stunned because this guy just I mean fell apart 1203 01:07:58,880 --> 01:08:01,720 Speaker 2: on the air, melted down, sobbing, crying on the air. 1204 01:08:02,880 --> 01:08:04,000 Speaker 2: As it turns out. 1205 01:08:03,920 --> 01:08:05,760 Speaker 1: Oh boy, I found it too, did you? 1206 01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:06,280 Speaker 2: All right? 1207 01:08:06,800 --> 01:08:07,120 Speaker 3: All right? 1208 01:08:07,520 --> 01:08:09,760 Speaker 1: Do you want to why did you van for a second?

As it 1232 01:09:13,240 --> 01:09:19,360 Speaker 2: turns out, that guy who called in was the voice 1233 01:09:19,479 --> 01:09:24,080 Speaker 2: guy at the radio station that I worked at in Charleston, 1234 01:09:24,160 --> 01:09:26,519 Speaker 2: South Carolina. His name was Dave. I don't want to 1235 01:09:26,560 --> 01:09:29,439 Speaker 2: give his last name. His name was Dave. It was 1236 01:09:29,560 --> 01:09:34,480 Speaker 2: all bs that he didn't even watch sports. He didn't 1237 01:09:34,200 --> 01:09:36,599 Speaker 2: he was watching it, and he couldn't figure out why 1238 01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:38,880 Speaker 2: everybody was so shocked by the fire. He didn't know 1239 01:09:38,920 --> 01:09:41,040 Speaker 2: who Tommy Bowden was. I don't even so I didn't 1240 01:09:41,080 --> 01:09:43,519 Speaker 2: know who was so I just called in and I 1241 01:09:43,600 --> 01:09:45,519 Speaker 2: just faked it because I'm like, yeah, I wonder if 1242 01:09:45,520 --> 01:09:47,719 Speaker 2: they need calls. And he just called into the local 1243 01:09:47,800 --> 01:09:51,920 Speaker 2: news and faked the entire thing. That's great, I'm telling you, man. 1244 01:09:52,160 --> 01:09:56,839 Speaker 2: Coaches shows are awesome. Coaches get fired in college football, 1245 01:09:57,040 --> 01:09:59,559 Speaker 2: the reaction locally is awesome. 1246 01:09:59,680 --> 01:10:01,880 Speaker 1: Nothing like a great sports radio prank. 1247 01:10:02,360 --> 01:10:06,439 Speaker 2: Oh man, it's the best. God so good. All right, 1248 01:10:06,479 --> 01:10:10,519 Speaker 2: thank you, Isaac. By the way, you ever wiped with 1249 01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:12,519 Speaker 2: a piece of dry toilet paper and wondered is this 1250 01:10:12,560 --> 01:10:14,400 Speaker 2: as good as it gets? Well, it's not switched to 1251 01:10:14,439 --> 01:10:18,080 Speaker 2: life changing wet extra large flushable dudewipes, because wet are 1252 01:10:18,080 --> 01:10:21,320 Speaker 2: just cleans better available in Amazon and at major retailers nationwide. 1253 01:10:21,439 --> 01:10:25,080 Speaker 2: Dudewipes best clean pants down. All right, So we are 1254 01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:27,760 Speaker 2: going to have an explanation for what is currently going 1255 01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:30,120 Speaker 2: on with Knox locks, and we're also going to have 1256 01:10:30,200 --> 01:10:32,760 Speaker 2: the return of an oldie but a goodie coming up 1257 01:10:32,800 --> 01:10:35,120 Speaker 2: here in about ten minutes from now. I would say this, 1258 01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:40,880 Speaker 2: there's a team that quietly is having a little bit 1259 01:10:40,920 --> 01:10:44,479 Speaker 2: of a rough go this offseason, all right, and I 1260 01:10:44,520 --> 01:10:49,320 Speaker 2: would be concerned that team is the Washington Commanders, who 1261 01:10:49,400 --> 01:10:52,559 Speaker 2: probably thought, you know what, now the Dan Snyder's gone, 1262 01:10:53,720 --> 01:10:55,759 Speaker 2: we are moving on to bigger and better things. Remember 1263 01:10:55,760 --> 01:10:58,440 Speaker 2: a year ago they were just in a conference championship 1264 01:10:58,479 --> 01:11:00,720 Speaker 2: game and everyone was saying, hey, man, future sprite, you 1265 01:11:00,760 --> 01:11:04,000 Speaker 2: got Jaden Daniels, you got Dan Quinn, you got that 1266 01:11:04,280 --> 01:11:08,960 Speaker 2: entire organization back on track, one of the great historic organizations. 1267 01:11:09,280 --> 01:11:12,599 Speaker 2: And the NFL's better when they're great. Dan Snyder's gone, 1268 01:11:12,800 --> 01:11:18,599 Speaker 2: we are back, baby. And then this season started and 1269 01:11:18,640 --> 01:11:24,880 Speaker 2: they were a bucket of puke. Jaden Daniels arm almost 1270 01:11:24,960 --> 01:11:28,240 Speaker 2: falls off as torso they bring him back out there. 1271 01:11:28,240 --> 01:11:32,240 Speaker 2: He gets injured again. Whole thing's a mess. Couldn't stay healthy, 1272 01:11:32,320 --> 01:11:36,800 Speaker 2: injuries left the whole thing's a mess. The Washington Commanders 1273 01:11:37,080 --> 01:11:41,920 Speaker 2: followed that messy season up with getting rid of both 1274 01:11:41,960 --> 01:11:46,439 Speaker 2: their coordinators, so offensive coordinator defensive coordinator gone. They lost 1275 01:11:46,479 --> 01:11:50,840 Speaker 2: three more coaches recently for various reasons. So we're talking 1276 01:11:50,880 --> 01:11:53,760 Speaker 2: at a minimum five coaches off the staff. And I 1277 01:11:53,840 --> 01:11:58,080 Speaker 2: think there's more. You were just a game away from 1278 01:11:58,080 --> 01:12:01,120 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl a year ago and now we're this 1279 01:12:03,120 --> 01:12:08,320 Speaker 2: and there's just some rumblings that maybe some of the 1280 01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:12,000 Speaker 2: old issues might have popped back up. Maybe there's some 1281 01:12:12,200 --> 01:12:14,360 Speaker 2: you know, maybe too many cooks in the kitchen, maybe 1282 01:12:14,360 --> 01:12:17,200 Speaker 2: there's some people that want some influence and maybe aren't 1283 01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:20,760 Speaker 2: the most patient, etc. Etc. And it is just amazing. 1284 01:12:21,439 --> 01:12:23,920 Speaker 2: And this is why I say, if your team is 1285 01:12:23,960 --> 01:12:27,639 Speaker 2: having a surprisingly good year, you just have to focus 1286 01:12:27,720 --> 01:12:31,320 Speaker 2: on that year, all right, Focus on it, take it, 1287 01:12:31,640 --> 01:12:34,400 Speaker 2: and enjoy it for as much as you can, because 1288 01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:38,679 Speaker 2: usually it turns into this to where Washington was the team, man. 1289 01:12:38,800 --> 01:12:40,920 Speaker 2: They were the team that you looked at and said, hey, man, 1290 01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:43,000 Speaker 2: they're gonna If you wanted to bet on a team 1291 01:12:43,000 --> 01:12:45,439 Speaker 2: in the next few years to win a Super Bowl 1292 01:12:45,439 --> 01:12:47,559 Speaker 2: that was gonna make a run, that's your team. You 1293 01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:50,000 Speaker 2: got your quarterback, you got your culture, you got your 1294 01:12:50,040 --> 01:12:55,640 Speaker 2: coaching staff. That's the one and here we are. So 1295 01:12:55,840 --> 01:12:58,680 Speaker 2: if you're a fan of the Chicago Bears and you 1296 01:12:58,760 --> 01:13:00,760 Speaker 2: want a bunch of fluky games you probably should have 1297 01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:03,720 Speaker 2: lost and things went surprisingly well this year when you 1298 01:13:03,760 --> 01:13:07,720 Speaker 2: didn't expect it, take notice. If you're a fan of 1299 01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:11,200 Speaker 2: the Denver Broncos and you want a bunch of games 1300 01:13:11,240 --> 01:13:13,680 Speaker 2: that maybe you probably shouldn't have won this year, and 1301 01:13:13,720 --> 01:13:17,720 Speaker 2: then afterwards, your coach in the AFC title game, makes 1302 01:13:17,720 --> 01:13:21,879 Speaker 2: some questionable decisions, then fires his longtime friend an offensive coordinator. 1303 01:13:21,960 --> 01:13:24,160 Speaker 2: He doesn't even call plays, you know, kind of a 1304 01:13:24,200 --> 01:13:28,000 Speaker 2: fall guy situation.

I think that's important 1345 01:15:35,680 --> 01:15:37,880 Speaker 2: to ask this question, especially at this time of the show. 1346 01:15:39,680 --> 01:15:41,559 Speaker 2: Have you ever wiped with a piece of dry toilet 1347 01:15:41,560 --> 01:15:43,720 Speaker 2: paper and wondered, is this as good as it gets?

We will not have that this 1352 01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:01,600 Speaker 2: week because I'm not betting on the Pro Bowl. I 1353 01:16:01,680 --> 01:16:04,639 Speaker 2: refuse to. I don't even know what the Pro Bowl is. 1354 01:16:04,920 --> 01:16:08,120 Speaker 2: I think it's just it's basically a bunch of guys 1355 01:16:08,160 --> 01:16:10,800 Speaker 2: hanging out at like a Davenbusters or some golf and 1356 01:16:10,840 --> 01:16:13,880 Speaker 2: stuff arcade somewhere. Like it's just, you know, and they're 1357 01:16:13,880 --> 01:16:16,599 Speaker 2: playing video games or doing whatever they're doing. The whole 1358 01:16:16,600 --> 01:16:19,200 Speaker 2: thing's ridiculous. I'm not going to bet on that because 1359 01:16:19,320 --> 01:16:21,759 Speaker 2: I just it's a waste of time. But I would 1360 01:16:21,760 --> 01:16:24,280 Speaker 2: say this, we are going to bet on the Super Bowl. 1361 01:16:24,320 --> 01:16:26,360 Speaker 2: Clearly we're gonna have a pick on that game. I'm 1362 01:16:26,360 --> 01:16:28,000 Speaker 2: not quite sure which way I want to go. I 1363 01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:29,600 Speaker 2: think I know where I'm leaning, but I'm going to 1364 01:16:29,680 --> 01:16:32,080 Speaker 2: wait until some of the dust settles and have that 1365 01:16:32,120 --> 01:16:34,519 Speaker 2: for you next week on the show. And it's going 1366 01:16:34,600 --> 01:16:36,680 Speaker 2: to be an important game because we are sitting at 1367 01:16:36,680 --> 01:16:41,559 Speaker 2: five hundred are we are five hundred five one hundred 1368 01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:49,839 Speaker 2: in divisional round, conference championship round, and wildcard round picks 1369 01:16:49,920 --> 01:16:53,000 Speaker 2: in the NFL playoffs? Sitting at five hundred all right, 1370 01:16:53,120 --> 01:16:56,040 Speaker 2: dead even, so we are going to need to pick 1371 01:16:56,040 --> 01:17:00,479 Speaker 2: a winner to avoid having a losing playoff record for 1372 01:17:00,520 --> 01:17:03,599 Speaker 2: the first time of the history of the show. Hey, 1373 01:17:03,640 --> 01:17:06,600 Speaker 2: listen me to Mike. A lot of pressure here, a 1374 01:17:06,600 --> 01:17:09,800 Speaker 2: lot of pressure. So we will have that pick for 1375 01:17:09,880 --> 01:17:13,080 Speaker 2: you coming up next week. So in the meantime, there's 1376 01:17:13,120 --> 01:17:16,479 Speaker 2: an oldie but a goodie that we do during the 1377 01:17:16,560 --> 01:17:19,120 Speaker 2: off season of the NFL we're not making picks to 1378 01:17:19,120 --> 01:17:21,439 Speaker 2: close up the show, and it's called. 1379 01:17:21,200 --> 01:17:28,559 Speaker 7: This, Jonas, how could you not get to these stories? 1380 01:17:28,960 --> 01:17:32,000 Speaker 2: Are there?

Everybody knows 1395 01:18:18,479 --> 01:18:20,760 Speaker 2: how I stand on it. If you don't, this should 1396 01:18:20,760 --> 01:18:24,519 Speaker 2: have always been expected. There's always been some element of 1397 01:18:24,560 --> 01:18:28,920 Speaker 2: this going on. It's things get dirty out there. It 1398 01:18:29,120 --> 01:18:31,640 Speaker 2: just is what it is. It happens. You don't have 1399 01:18:31,720 --> 01:18:33,920 Speaker 2: to like it. I get all that it's a bad look, 1400 01:18:33,960 --> 01:18:36,800 Speaker 2: it's bad optics whatever. Like all these people panicking, oh, 1401 01:18:36,880 --> 01:18:39,880 Speaker 2: well this is you shouldn't invite gambling into the sport. 1402 01:18:39,920 --> 01:18:41,280 Speaker 2: And then you're like, wait, but how much money can 1403 01:18:41,320 --> 01:18:43,840 Speaker 2: we make on it? But like these guys saying, well, 1404 01:18:43,880 --> 01:18:48,280 Speaker 2: they're praying on athletes, So tell the athletes not to 1405 01:18:48,320 --> 01:18:51,400 Speaker 2: take the money to fix games. You got options here, 1406 01:18:51,439 --> 01:18:53,680 Speaker 2: And by the way, if you're one of these basketball 1407 01:18:53,720 --> 01:18:56,760 Speaker 2: players who likes to shave points and you really need 1408 01:18:56,800 --> 01:19:00,720 Speaker 2: some action. Look around, brother. You could bet on the 1409 01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:04,160 Speaker 2: Royal Rumble. You could bet on a UFC event later on. 1410 01:19:04,520 --> 01:19:08,000 Speaker 2: You could bet on horse racing. During COVID, I bet 1411 01:19:08,040 --> 01:19:10,719 Speaker 2: on a horse race in Japan. The horses were wearing 1412 01:19:10,840 --> 01:19:14,840 Speaker 2: N ninety fives and running backwards. I still lost. But 1413 01:19:14,960 --> 01:19:17,280 Speaker 2: if you need to scratch the itch, you could scratch 1414 01:19:17,320 --> 01:19:19,280 Speaker 2: the itch in a lot of different ways. You don't 1415 01:19:19,320 --> 01:19:22,920 Speaker 2: have to fix games. It's not the predator's fault that 1416 01:19:23,000 --> 01:19:26,040 Speaker 2: are preying on these athletes. It's the athletes making bad decisions. 1417 01:19:26,640 --> 01:19:27,800 Speaker 2: What else we got? 1418 01:19:28,160 --> 01:19:28,639 Speaker 3: Bagels. 1419 01:19:28,760 --> 01:19:32,559 Speaker 6: Quarterback Joe Flacco, former Browns quarterback, was named as an 1420 01:19:32,600 --> 01:19:35,840 Speaker 6: AFC quarterback in this year's Pro Bowl Games, the team 1421 01:19:35,880 --> 01:19:39,040 Speaker 6: announced Friday. It's the first time in Flago's eighteen year 1422 01:19:39,080 --> 01:19:42,360 Speaker 6: career that he's been named a Pro Bowler. It's prisingly enough, 1423 01:19:43,000 --> 01:19:44,120 Speaker 6: That's what I'm talking about. 1424 01:19:44,360 --> 01:19:46,200 Speaker 2: Hey, By the way, how does it feel shade to 1425 01:19:46,280 --> 01:19:49,120 Speaker 2: know that Joe Flacco's been the best Browns quarterback in 1426 01:19:49,200 --> 01:19:50,760 Speaker 2: like the like five or dude? 1427 01:19:50,840 --> 01:19:53,000 Speaker 6: I was arguing, always said he was our best starter 1428 01:19:53,120 --> 01:19:55,920 Speaker 6: this year, and everyone was saying shit, door I'm like, no, Joe, 1429 01:19:56,000 --> 01:19:56,559 Speaker 6: it has to. 1430 01:19:57,360 --> 01:19:59,120 Speaker 3: And I went back to the last five years. 1431 01:19:59,160 --> 01:20:00,760 Speaker 6: I'm like, wait a second, that has been the best 1432 01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:04,200 Speaker 6: quarterback we've had literally since I think that one year 1433 01:20:04,240 --> 01:20:06,800 Speaker 6: that DeShawn got injured. But genuinely, it's insane. 1434 01:20:07,120 --> 01:20:10,720 Speaker 2: So the one time Stefanski ever showed emotion because by 1435 01:20:10,720 --> 01:20:12,519 Speaker 2: the way, he looks like a werewolf. But the one 1436 01:20:12,600 --> 01:20:17,240 Speaker 2: time Stefanski ever showed emotion was when he was being 1437 01:20:17,280 --> 01:20:22,720 Speaker 2: asked about them trading Joe Flacco in the Division, and 1438 01:20:22,760 --> 01:20:26,240 Speaker 2: he was he was visibly frustrated, and like you could say, 1439 01:20:26,240 --> 01:20:28,240 Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, I've never heard Stefanski talk like that 1440 01:20:28,240 --> 01:20:30,639 Speaker 2: because hes always even keel. And then it turns out 1441 01:20:30,840 --> 01:20:34,840 Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin spoke up and called called into question the move, 1442 01:20:35,640 --> 01:20:39,840 Speaker 2: and reportedly Tomlin and Stefanski are close, and so Mike 1443 01:20:39,920 --> 01:20:44,559 Speaker 2: Tomlin couldn't figure out why the Cleveland Browns would trade 1444 01:20:44,560 --> 01:20:50,160 Speaker 2: their starting quarterback in the division to another team because 1445 01:20:50,160 --> 01:20:53,599 Speaker 2: Stefanski was totally blindsided by it. He had no idea 1446 01:20:53,640 --> 01:20:54,360 Speaker 2: they were doing it. 1447 01:20:54,360 --> 01:20:56,280 Speaker 6: Insane, I'll tell you right now. Though Browns fans were 1448 01:20:56,320 --> 01:20:59,120 Speaker 6: happy because we hate the Steelers, that was not bad. 1449 01:20:59,439 --> 01:21:01,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean You're fine, all right, We've got 1450 01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:02,519 Speaker 2: time for one more. 1451 01:21:02,600 --> 01:21:02,840 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1452 01:21:02,840 --> 01:21:05,960 Speaker 6: Philip Rivers has withdrawn from Buffalo Bill's head coaching search 1453 01:21:06,000 --> 01:21:08,920 Speaker 6: after interviewing. He prefers coaching his son, Gunner, a top 1454 01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:10,559 Speaker 6: twenty twenty seven QB recruit. 1455 01:21:11,240 --> 01:21:13,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, look, Philip Rivers will probably get a 1456 01:21:13,400 --> 01:21:16,400 Speaker 2: sniff back of the NFL again. Clearly Joe Brady got 1457 01:21:16,400 --> 01:21:18,479 Speaker 2: the gig. Not the biggest surprise in the world. But 1458 01:21:18,520 --> 01:21:20,439 Speaker 2: Philip Rivers will be back. And people thought that they've 1459 01:21:20,479 --> 01:21:22,640 Speaker 2: seen the last of Philip Rivers. You have not. He 1460 01:21:22,720 --> 01:21:24,519 Speaker 2: was pretty fun to watch his past year while he 1461 01:21:24,560 --> 01:21:26,840 Speaker 2: was playing. He's going to be fun as hell, trying 1462 01:21:26,880 --> 01:21:28,479 Speaker 2: not to curse at players who don't do what he 1463 01:21:28,479 --> 01:21:28,920 Speaker 2: asks him to. 1464 01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:32,880 Speaker 7: What he is an NFL coach, shown us son of 1465 01:21:32,920 --> 01:21:33,479 Speaker 7: a bitch,
