And the craziest thing about that game 157 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 5: because I've seen the replay before, as you know, worked 158 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 5: many years with Steve Hartman and as a baseball and 159 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,319 Speaker 5: all sports historian and a member of our family here 160 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 5: at Fox Sports Radio. 161 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 6: We've talked about. 162 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,679 Speaker 5: The Samberg game more than just once, but I digress. 163 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 5: I mean that truly may have been the moment that 164 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 5: turned the Cubs eighty four season around and led to 165 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 5: a resurgence. And that was a special time for baseball 166 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 5: because if you remember, I mean, it was embattled, you know, 167 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 5: player labor action and things like that, but you had 168 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:38,199 Speaker 5: these special moments that really created lifelong fans for fan bases, 169 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 5: like the New York Mets, the Miracle Mets in the 170 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 5: early eighties, this resurgence in eighty four of the Chicago Cubs, 171 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 5: and he was a big part of that. Man, what 172 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,599 Speaker 5: a special time to watch baseball, and what an incredible. 173 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 6: Job by Harry carry on that call. 174 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 3: Gosh, you have the strike of eighty one, the collusion 175 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 3: issues going on, and c Lee again with Atlanta and Chicago. 176 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 3: Those are the two teams you were always able to 177 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 3: watch on the respective superstations. One that we've talked about 178 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 3: a lot, going back to the Hogan story and the 179 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:15,439 Speaker 3: rise of you know, TNT and the nWo and all 180 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 3: that fun stuff w CW versus those Monday Night Wars 181 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 3: of wrestling for all those years. But you know, for 182 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 3: me growing up in Chicago, you know, there were three 183 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 3: thousand Cubs fans per White Sox fan and that ratio 184 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 3: is probably even worse today. But all of that across 185 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 3: the nation and baseball fans around the globe know the 186 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 3: Cubs brand, the lovable losers, who you lose a little 187 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 3: of that once you win a World Series. But certainly 188 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 3: Ryan Samberg one of those best to never right because 189 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 3: for all of his greatness, and we've read off the 190 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 3: accolades before, never got to go play in the In 191 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 3: the Fall Classic, but gave you big moments like this 192 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 3: here from June twenty third of nineteen eighty four, just 193 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 3: a highlight that everybody that's followed baseball has seen multiple times, 194 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 3: heard the Harry Carey call as we played it there. 195 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 3: And even as you get into Hall of Fame induction 196 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 3: ceremonies and looking back. 197 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 4: At the past. 198 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,439 Speaker 3: Heroes, you know, there's always those indelible moments that are 199 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 3: etched into the history. And here is another one, and 200 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 3: we celebrate Samberg passed away today long complications with prostate 201 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 3: cancer at the age of sixty five. 202 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, man, I appreciate the battle though, because like 203 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 5: many people, I've had family members succumb to the battle. 204 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 5: I've had a couple overcome it, you know, And man, 205 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 5: you just root hard when you hear that diagnosis, regardless 206 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 5: of what. 207 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 6: It was in this case. You know, prostate. 208 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 5: Many times in my own life personally it's been breast cancer, 209 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 5: and you pray for those folks and their families, and 210 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 5: you know it's going to take a lot of will 211 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 5: and a lot of strength. And it did for him, 212 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 5: and like you said, all the way up until last week, 213 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 5: returning calls and letters from people who cared about him. 214 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 6: Reaching back out. Didn't need to do that, but felt 215 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:26,560 Speaker 6: obliged or honored to. I don't. I don't know him personally, 216 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 6: so I don't know. 217 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:31,840 Speaker 5: How he felt about it. But either way, I love 218 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 5: what he did for the culture of sports. I love 219 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 5: what he did for kids growing up during that time, 220 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 5: because I think that's often what's lost when we talk 221 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:43,679 Speaker 5: about these. 222 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 6: Very I don't know. 223 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 5: I guess adult topics around sports is that this is 224 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:52,839 Speaker 5: for kids. Like I mean, I remember being motivated by 225 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 5: the heroes on the TV, or when my folks could 226 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 5: scrape together enough money to bring me to an arena 227 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 5: or a stadium, the ones that I'm seeing on a 228 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,559 Speaker 5: field or a court in front of me, Like that's 229 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:07,679 Speaker 5: what it's all about. And you know that that Ryan Samberg. 230 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 5: He motivated a lot of young kids out there to 231 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 5: be maybe to feel like they were more than themselves 232 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 5: or be better one day. And you know he will 233 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 5: be missed.

I've long joked here on Fox Sports Radio 243 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 3: outside of Ryan Samberg, go back to a lot of 244 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,079 Speaker 3: those National League lineups, and you can bring in Joe Moore, 245 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 3: Gonna and a few other guys, but generally it was 246 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,840 Speaker 3: the pitcher couldn't hit, the catcher couldn't hit, and the 247 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 3: second baseman couldn't hit, but in Chicago you had Ryan Samberg. 248 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 3: Rest in peace, Rhino.

And the Raiders, like, I you know, 339 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 7: I see a lot of stuff out there and people 340 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 7: are like, oh, well, he's a different Cats this or that. Well, 341 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:41,959 Speaker 7: like yeah, and the Raiders are different franchise, Like what 342 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 7: the hell are the Raiders? Like what have they done? Right? 343 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 7: Like and if you want to summon that Pete Terrell's 344 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 7: been there for two point five seconds, I mean whatever, 345 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 7: but like, what what have they done? That's credible? Like 346 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 7: what have they done the last thirty years? Right? Like 347 00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:00,200 Speaker 7: the most memorable Raiders stuff of the last thirty years 348 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 7: is like Al Davis pulling out a projector to like 349 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 7: remount Lane Kiffin, Right, It's it's like ridiculous statements. It's 350 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 7: like the Richard Seymour trade. It's it's it's I mean 351 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 7: the Tuck Bowl, but that that really wasn't for that 352 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 7: that's anything maybe they oppose, but like they weren't on 353 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,679 Speaker 7: the right side of it, like the idea, you know what, 354 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 7: I mean, that the raiders are arbitures of truth and reality. 355 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 7: I just don't know, you know, I don't know that 356 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:33,160 Speaker 7: they deserve the benefit of the doubt. So we're going 357 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,719 Speaker 7: to have to learn more about this situation. But I 358 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 7: have a hard time thinking again, if it's in the 359 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 7: realm of what is currently in the public spect I 360 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 7: think Christian Wilkins is going to make out. 361 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, I mean I guess, I guess essentially, are 362 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 5: we looking at a mountain or an iceberg? 363 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 6: You know, do we have the full story? Do we 364 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 6: have this right? 365 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 7: I don't know? 366 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 6: Or is there so much more? And like you don't know, 367 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 6: we don't know. And and but one thing. 368 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 5: All of us here know is that the NFL and gosh, 369 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,920 Speaker 5: I mean, like it or not. And I think most 370 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,920 Speaker 5: people would find this part of the business somewhat detestable. 371 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 5: I mean, the NFL has housed, you know, men who 372 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 5: were guilty, pled guilty of domestic violences, abuses towards women, 373 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 5: rape allegations, I mean, like the list, murder allegations. The 374 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,479 Speaker 5: list goes on and on and on, and you know, 375 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:36,679 Speaker 5: as long as they're ready for Sunday, Monday, Thursday playoff games, 376 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 5: whatever dates they happen to land on. There's a lot 377 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,439 Speaker 5: of fans and people and and spectators who look on 378 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 5: and to be perfectly honest, I'm not above it. I 379 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 5: do too, you know. I can hold two truths in 380 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 5: my head at the same time. Where I did watch 381 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 5: the Joe Mixon tape, and I also watch him rush 382 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 5: for over a thousand yards a bunch of times over 383 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 5: in the NIEL and I have to admit that I've 384 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 5: been impressed at times Tyreek Hill. I mean, how many 385 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 5: times has he had run ins with the low you know? 386 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 5: So look, I guess my point is, if the worst 387 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 5: of this story has already been released, Jason, I completely 388 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 5: agree with you. I think he's going to help a 389 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,359 Speaker 5: team if he's healthy enough to. But going back to 390 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 5: the Raiders, all the changes they've made in a very competitive, 391 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 5: very difficult division, what do you make of Pete Carroll 392 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:32,680 Speaker 5: Carroll's opening salvo as a coach in Vegas? 393 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 6: Do you think this is going to work? 394 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 7: I don't. I think it's a three year chore, you know, 395 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 7: and I especially in that division. Every coach in that 396 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:48,359 Speaker 7: division is a Hall of Famer every other coach in 397 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 7: that division seems to me to have a franchise quarterback. 398 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:53,640 Speaker 7: Or if you want to say the verdict still out 399 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,879 Speaker 7: on Bo Nicks, I'm going to say it's Sean Payton 400 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 7: tells me he's a franchise quarterback. I'm gonna take his 401 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 7: work for it. But if you're not, I think you 402 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 7: probably will be by the middle of the season. Right, 403 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 7: But he's lacking. He's starting from behind in a couple 404 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 7: of major ways. And it's not like this is you 405 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 7: know the NFC, Yeah, the NFC South or the AFC South, 406 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 7: where he could just parachute in that division and already 407 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 7: have a level of expertise and acumen and a resume 408 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:29,879 Speaker 7: that seems pretty unimpeachable compared to his peers. That's just 409 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 7: not the case where he finds himself now, you know, 410 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:36,359 Speaker 7: I mean even the whole Tom Brady butt all, like, 411 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 7: is is that necessarily a good thing? Like I've never 412 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 7: seen someone who's an owner or you know, whether he's 413 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 7: allowed to pretend to be the acting owner or whatever, 414 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 7: who doesn't like kind of pee all down their leg 415 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 7: at first. Like it's just I know, he's been around 416 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 7: professional sports his whole life, and a lot of these 417 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 7: guys whose daddies were billionaires, who were born into it 418 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,199 Speaker 7: and were nepo babies, like they never figured out. But 419 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 7: I just think it's different, man, and I don't know 420 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 7: too many who have made that smooth transition. And so 421 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 7: even if you're going to tell me all, well, he 422 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 7: can protect Mark Davison michaud At, I don't even know 423 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,919 Speaker 7: if Tom Brady knows where all the minefields are in 424 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 7: terms of what he's navigating right now. So no, I 425 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 7: think it's it's kind of fought with peril, to be honest, 426 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 7: and Pete Carroll is only going to approach it one way, right, 427 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,719 Speaker 7: It's going to always be about winning this next second, 428 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 7: this next minute, this next series, this next play. I 429 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 7: means he's always kind of been that way, and now 430 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,879 Speaker 7: he's very close to the end. And I just don't 431 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 7: know that they sync up with where they are as 432 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 7: a franchise and where he is as a coach, And 433 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 7: so I tend to think the thirty years of Raiders' 434 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,640 Speaker 7: futility tells me this is probably going to be pretty futile. 435 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,640 Speaker 3: Jesse, we talked a lot about contracts the last couple 436 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 3: of weeks when you've joined us. A couple of them 437 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 3: still outstand when we look at Henrickson, uh and Micah Parsons. 438 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:08,399 Speaker 3: But let's go to Cowboys camp. They averted a major 439 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:12,640 Speaker 3: catastrophe today with guitting it, but it's still a six 440 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:14,639 Speaker 3: week injury to your left tackle. 441 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, and and you worry about, you know, if that's 442 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 7: what he's like on the other side of it, if 443 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 7: there's any you know, if this becomes a situation where 444 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:30,959 Speaker 7: that that knee is robbly, you're unstable. And he's got 445 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 7: a lot to prove to begin with, and him missing 446 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:37,920 Speaker 7: all this these reps is not good. Yeah, I don't 447 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:39,880 Speaker 7: have good vibes about the Cowboys. I have to follow 448 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 7: the column for the Washington Post on them today. Honestly, Uh, 449 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 7: it's just the same. It's just they're checking all the 450 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 7: boxes they always check, you know, and all that stuff 451 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 7: plays at the box office and it plays on the 452 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 7: TV ratings, but it doesn't it doesn't play in the standings. 453 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 7: You know. They continually take risks on character guys because 454 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:01,679 Speaker 7: they can get him cheaper and Jerry's she's the potential value. 455 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 7: And you see how many jerseys that guy could sell 456 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,119 Speaker 7: if it pans out and this or that, but it 457 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,679 Speaker 7: kind of looks like they're collection of individuals, you know, 458 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 7: and like they're perfect frump on this, Like, yeah, they 459 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 7: have enough top side, you know, high end talent that 460 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:16,880 Speaker 7: if they get off to a fast start and they're 461 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 7: able to play with the lead and they can just 462 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 7: attack the quarterback all the time, like that's great. But 463 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,400 Speaker 7: I mean this is a team that was, like I've 464 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 7: seen I mean just looking at them some of the 465 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 7: metrics like if you look at every team in the NFL, 466 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:35,119 Speaker 7: and how many yards they allowed before before contact against 467 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 7: the rush and how few yards they e generated before 468 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 7: contact when they rushed, Like it's staggering from the metrics 469 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:44,639 Speaker 7: that sound when I dug more into their season, like 470 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 7: they're a bottom five offensive team on first down and 471 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 7: the bottom five defensive team rush down. Like I just 472 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 7: and I mean, where is the roster that much better? 473 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 7: You know? I just they got a forty five million 474 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 7: dollars quarterback make sixty million dollars a year, Like, I 475 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:05,640 Speaker 7: don't think it's it's going to work. The culture's work. 476 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 7: You got four or five guys who get overpaid and 477 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 7: everybody else has got to beg for scraps. And listen 478 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 7: to Jerry rip them publicly he doesn't think they're playing 479 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,119 Speaker 7: up to their contractor rip them for getting hurt, Like, 480 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,639 Speaker 7: I don't think that really breeds, you know, camaraderie and 481 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 7: cohesiveness and selflessness. And I look at their schedule, and 482 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,120 Speaker 7: I look at a head coach who was probably over 483 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:27,760 Speaker 7: his head, and I say, I don't think they're going 484 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:29,920 Speaker 7: to be front runners. I think they're gonna be chasing, 485 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:31,920 Speaker 7: and they're gonna be chasing a lot, and they're gonna 486 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,880 Speaker 7: be chasing even some teams early on, like maybe the Giant, 487 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 7: who if that defensive front gets off, like they could 488 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:40,719 Speaker 7: muck that game up, that could be an unwe game. Like, 489 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 7: I mean, I don't know. I don't see they're gonna 490 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 7: be out much better running the ball, and I don't 491 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 7: think they can stop the run still, So I got questions, 492 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 7: you know, like Evra Flues won't give up the big play, 493 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 7: but he gonna try to rein in Mike at all. 494 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 7: I don't buy them. I would play them under seven 495 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 7: and a half wins. Wow, I have played them on 496 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 7: this seven and a half wins. I think it's gonna struggle. 497 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 6: I love the motto the team model you gave them. 498 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:12,160 Speaker 5: You know, they're like indelible words that are attached to franchises, 499 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:16,199 Speaker 5: and many of them three three word monikers, you know, 500 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,919 Speaker 5: the Patriot Way or the or legion of boom or 501 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,400 Speaker 5: why do they move? In the case of the LA Chargers, 502 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 5: I know I'm using a contraction. They're cheated a little bit, 503 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 5: but you but collection of individuals pretty much sums up 504 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 5: the past quarter century for the Dallas Cowboys. That is 505 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 5: perfectly stated. Jason lockin Ford joining US Fox Sports Radio. 506 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 5: How about the Browns. I've heard everything from Flacco's the 507 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 5: day one starter, to Shador Sanders the best quarterback we've 508 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 5: ever seen in football pads to Kenny Pickett's the guy 509 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 5: but ooh, the injury, we don't know. And then I've 510 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 5: also heard all three of them are going to be 511 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 5: traded at different points. So who the hell is starting 512 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 5: the season in Cleveland? 513 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 7: Jason, And I think they're keeping him under the bubble 514 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 7: reps because you know, they've seen what he can do there. Now, 515 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 7: I don't think he's going to be sewing seventy yard 516 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 7: bombs like crazy that Mary Cooper like he did three 517 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 7: years ago, because I don't think they have the offensive 518 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 7: line for it, and they also don't have Pete Nick 519 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 7: Chubb there drawing the kind of attention that he did, 520 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 7: so they've got issues. But no, I think they're keeping 521 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 7: Flaco on the bubble rap because they want to ride 522 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 7: that as long as they can. But I think even 523 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 7: internally they know trying to ride that more than sixty 524 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 7: eight weeks is probably feeble. So in the meantime, they've 525 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 7: got to get these other guys ready to play. But 526 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 7: facto Flaco speaks the language. Flacco has been existing in 527 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 7: this league for five years now, getting no reps. You 528 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 7: know what I mean. He doesn't need training camp. I 529 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 7: mean how the year he took them to the playoffs, 530 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 7: he came up his couch and what November and practice 531 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 7: for a week and they're throwing for four hundred yards 532 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 7: every game. So I think they have to figure out 533 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 7: who these other kids are. I think Pickett was going 534 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 7: to be traded and the injury set that back, and so, 535 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 7: you know, is he still traded at some point? I 536 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 7: think probably? But Hammis can be trikey and so really 537 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 7: it's about Gabriel and Sanders and repping them up and again, 538 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 7: can one of them take the baton week eight, week nine, 539 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 7: week ten, or pickets still there. You write picket for 540 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 7: a little while, but I don't think you ride them 541 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 7: for a whole half season. So it's got to play out. 542 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 7: It just started. But I mean, I think the Browns 543 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 7: probably the last team to win a game in this league, 544 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 7: like if them are the Saints, and when I really 545 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,239 Speaker 7: dig down on the schedules, like I think it might 546 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 7: be the Browns. I don't like them in the trenches, 547 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 7: you know, really on I just side of the ball. 548 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 7: The defense can it was you know, great at home 549 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 7: two years ago. Even that year, it wasn't the same 550 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 7: on the road. There's been slippage there, there's been some decay. 551 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 7: I think they're really up against it. And yeah, I 552 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 7: think Flaco starts as long as you can. But I 553 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 7: don't think it's going to be that long because I 554 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 7: think he's going to hear a lot. 555 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 3: He's Jason Locking for Odyssey, Washington Post. What a five 556 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 3: to seven the fan in Baltimore. Jason as always appreciate 557 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 3: you stopping by.

We talked about Ryan Sandberg's 667 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 3: passing to start the show and and for all of 668 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 3: us the love the game of baseball and certainly the 669 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:44,239 Speaker 3: city of Chicago in mourning. They just had the Hall 670 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:48,320 Speaker 3: of Fame induction ceremonies. Plenty of people asked about Ryan 671 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:52,279 Speaker 3: Sandberg wasn't able to be there with his you know, 672 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 3: his Hall teammates for for lack of a better term, 673 00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 3: Wade Boggs talking to our own John John Moros, who 674 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:02,200 Speaker 3: joins us each and every week, quote, he's my classmate, 675 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,960 Speaker 3: said take care of him, Lord, and started crying as 676 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,360 Speaker 3: they spoke about him. But we're gonna go back and 677 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 3: positive happy memories of one of his highlights. Earlier, we 678 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 3: played the first home run. Now it's time to hear 679 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 3: Harry Carey again, five for six on the day, home 680 00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 3: runs in the ninth and tenth inning off fellow Hall 681 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,759 Speaker 3: of Famer Bruce Suitor. That's the play of the day. 682 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 3: Brought to you by Tirack. For over forty years, Tyrak's 683 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 3: been helping customers find the right tires for how what 684 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,680 Speaker 3: and where they drive ship fast and free back by 685 00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:02,880 Speaker 3: free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile 686 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 3: tire installation tyrac dot com the way tire buying should be. 687 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,040 Speaker 4: We'll hear more. 688 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 3: Remembrances of Ryan Sandberg. Circle back to that a little 689 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 3: bit later. I'm seeing highlights and old footage giving me chills, 690 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:22,440 Speaker 3: going back to a childhood running home from school, raiding 691 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 3: the refrigerator and then watching those games. But I got 692 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:28,320 Speaker 3: to ask you, Rich a lot of stuff with training camps. 693 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 3: We've got all the contract hold in hold out trying 694 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 3: to find major dollars. 695 00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 4: Along the way. 696 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 3: And then every injury report might be the season ender, 697 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:40,759 Speaker 3: might be the career ender. Oh it might just be 698 00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:45,120 Speaker 3: a ripped fingernail. But we also have the best of 699 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 3: time worst of times in terms of day to day 700 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:51,200 Speaker 3: fluidity for the quarterback position. We talk about Cleveland and 701 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 3: Shador Sanders. One day he's getting cut, the next day 702 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 3: he's on on path to a Hall of Fame career. 703 00:38:57,120 --> 00:39:00,480 Speaker 3: How am I supposed to read through the beat writers rhetoric. 704 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:06,600 Speaker 5: Here's the deal. I want everybody to try to remember 705 00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:10,840 Speaker 5: what it was like to practice, because it's really difficult. 706 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:14,320 Speaker 5: Like look, practice is not something we often do as adults. 707 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 5: We go to work, we have good work days, we 708 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:21,440 Speaker 5: have bad work days. I guess occasionally you might practice 709 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 5: a conversation you want to have if it's particularly important 710 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 5: with your boss. You might kind of talk to yourself 711 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:31,719 Speaker 5: on the road, you know, while you're white knuckling traffic, 712 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 5: you might review some of the things you might want 713 00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 5: to say when you're asking for that race. 714 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 6: But not a lot of people remember what practice is like. 715 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 5: But practice you literally try to fail. 716 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:44,320 Speaker 6: So that you don't fail in the game. 717 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 5: So when you have failures at practice, those are good 718 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:51,080 Speaker 5: moments because they're learning moments. When you have successes at practice, 719 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:53,239 Speaker 5: they can be good moments, but they also could be 720 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:57,360 Speaker 5: expected moments. So I guess my point is you cannot 721 00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:00,640 Speaker 5: fall in love with the results of practice. Yeah, Shador 722 00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 5: had a great day today, but guess what, He's gonna 723 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 5: have a rough day tomorrow, or the next day or 724 00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 5: the next day. It all comes out in the wash. 725 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 5: It's about getting better and seeing improvement. Is it a 726 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 5: good thing that Shador Sanders has had a good game 727 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:14,160 Speaker 5: or a good day at practice? 728 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:16,840 Speaker 6: Yes? Is it? Everything doesn't mean he's. 729 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 5: Gonna be you know, the next elite mobile quarterback taking 730 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 5: over the NFL like Jaden Daniels. 731 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 6: Probably not. 732 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 5: You know, it's probably gonna settle somewhere in between. So 733 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:32,200 Speaker 5: I would say, pump your brakes on the heavy expectations 734 00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 5: and the heavy breathing you see around Twitter or the 735 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:37,479 Speaker 5: artist formerly known as Twitter now named Ax. 736 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, because in Chicago they were gripping the other day 737 00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:44,439 Speaker 3: as Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams weren't quite seeing eye 738 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:46,279 Speaker 3: to eye and what he was trying to call and 739 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 3: how it was executed. But day to day you try 740 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:51,120 Speaker 3: to find those wins along the way, and it gives 741 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 3: us more to talk about the great successes and the 742 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:57,400 Speaker 3: great failures. Rich Ohnberger for Jason Smith, not Mike Carbon 743 00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 3: coming out next. You know, Rich, if he keeps carrying 744 00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:01,520 Speaker 3: his kids through the airport, he might be on the 745 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,280 Speaker 3: cover of Men's Health. That would put him in company 746 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:06,120 Speaker 3: with a guy who's retold
