52
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 3: what a week for sports in Los Angeles? Can we

53
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 3: just like? The Dodgers officially announced Shoho Tani signed his contract,

54
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 3: Lakers won the n season tournament, The Clippers are in

55
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 3: a nice little.

56
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 2: Shit Yeah, yes we are, thank you, Alex.

57
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 3: And the Chargers well finally fired they're head coach some

58
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 3: months let's start there. Oh okay, yeah, because the Chargers

59
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 3: fired Brandon Staley and their GM Friday morning. I'm going

60
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 3: to say, I don't think anyone was really surprised by

61
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 3: this news, more so of what took you so long.

62
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 4: Right, I mean the surprises that it actually happened, right,

63
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 4: because there's been so many incidents, so many games.

64
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 3: I mean, after the Charges soul crushing loss, yeah to

65
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,079
Speaker 3: the Raiders on primetime Thursday night football, like you have

66
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 3: to do something after there were no more excuses. They

67
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 3: were losing forty nine to nothing in the third quarter,

68
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 3: after the Raiders lost three n half thing last week,

69
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 3: which sounds like a soccer score, right, not a football score.

70
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 1: Yeah.

71
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 3: Now, I think the hardest part to kind of I

72
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:12,920
Speaker 3: have the hardest part, I mean, the easiest thing to

73
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 3: kind of wrap your head around is Staley was a

74
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 3: defensive coach and he could not get his side of

75
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 3: the ball in order. The Raiders set their franchise scoring

76
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 3: record with sixty three points on Thursday night.

77
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 2: That can't happen. Did but embarrassing.

78
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 3: It's embarrassing. But it's not just about last night. The

79
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,079
Speaker 3: Charger's defense is just bad. And when you're a defensive coach,

80
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 3: that can't happen. The Chargers are twenty seventh in points

81
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 3: allowed per game, twenty ninth in yards allowed per game.

82
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 3: And honestly, we've talked about this before. I was surprised

83
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 3: that even brought him back this year, especially after last

84
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 3: season's playoff loss, the collapse to the Jags. They had

85
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 3: a twenty seven point lead then lost thirty one to thirty.

86
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 3: It was just brutal, brute. All but one other thing

87
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 3: to remember with Staley, and I don't want to make

88
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 3: excuses for him, because that's not what we're here for. No,

89
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 3: he was a young and inexperienced coach. This was his

90
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 3: very first head coaching job. He had only been a

91
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 3: defensive coordinator for one year under Sean McVay and the Rams.

92
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 3: So they probably thought they could get that same kind

93
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 3: of magic the Rams got from McVeigh.

94
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 2: They didn't. I think they held on a little too long.

95
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think anyone would disagree with you on that, Yeah,

96
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 4: that they held on a little too long.

97
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,799
Speaker 2: Why And you know there were I would ask people.

98
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 4: We actually justin Frostberg, who is a producer here, he

99
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 4: also produces the radio for the Chargers, and you know,

100
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,359
Speaker 4: I'm a chargersman, he's charged fan, and I was always like,

101
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,599
Speaker 4: when are they going to make a change, And he's like,

102
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 4: it's probably going to be in after the season. Most

103
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 4: people thought Most people thought that, yeah, And it just

104
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 4: was like, at what point do you It's a definition

105
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 4: of insanity, Like we keep getting the same result, you

106
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 4: keep thinking something's gonna change and nothing's changing, if in

107
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 4: fact it's getting worse.

108
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 2: It was it was time. It was time.

109
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 4: I hope Brandon Staley, like you said, a learning experience.

110
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, he's still gonna get paid. He's still

111
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,719
Speaker 3: gonna get paid. Sure, he'll get another coordinating job somewhere.

112
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 3: But just take a reset, take your recess, take a reset.

113
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:12,479
Speaker 5: To me.

114
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 4: I wonder is it that the players just didn't believe

115
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 4: what he was selling. You have to believe what your

116
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 4: coach tells you, what he says in the locker room.

117
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 4: You just saw how the Raiders are playing for Antonio Pierce, Like, yeah,

118
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 4: but then.

119
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 3: They also lost three nothing the week prior, right, So

120
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 3: three nothing.

121
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 4: Though, But you got to like they all kind of

122
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 4: like have banded together and are following what their coach

123
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 4: is telling them. And I feel like I have never

124
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 4: seen or I've never believed that the Chargers are actually

125
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:44,160
Speaker 4: following what their coach is saying.

126
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 3: Okay, now I got another question here. Okay, how much

127
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 3: is Justin Herbert to blame for all this? Because I'm

128
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 3: gonna say this last game probably helped his case a

129
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 3: little bit, just to see how big of a dumpster

130
00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 3: fire the entire thing organization plays coach was even without him,

131
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,599
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say there's no denying that Justin.

132
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 2: Herbert is a great quarterback.

133
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 3: Right, they're the games that they were losing, they're still

134
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 3: scoring twenty five to thirty points. But I think he

135
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:19,039
Speaker 3: needs to take a slight part why in this situation.

136
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 3: He has been paid as a top tier quarterback, Okay,

137
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 3: and with that comes big responsibilities. You should be able

138
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,839
Speaker 3: to put a franchise and a team on your back

139
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,080
Speaker 3: if you are getting that kind of money. He is

140
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 3: an incredible talent, okay, but he needs to have those wow,

141
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 3: no doubt moments. Okay, look at someone else in his class,

142
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 3: his draft class, Joe Burrow. He took a disaster franchise,

143
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 3: put them on his back, brought them to a super Bowl.

144
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 3: And there's also moments where say, it's the last drive

145
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 3: of the game. Okay, do you feel confident that when

146
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 3: Justin Herd gets the ball, no matter what, he's going

147
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 3: to get it done like we feel when Mahomes or

148
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow gets a ball in that moment. He is

149
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 3: getting that kind of money. Yeah, he is getting that

150
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 3: kind of money. And when you get that kind of money,

151
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 3: you need to have that kind of responsibility and have

152
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 3: that kind of an effort to be able to pick

153
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 3: your team up if something else isn't going well.

154
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 4: I agree with what you're saying, but I disagree that

155
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 4: Justin Herbert has any fault in this.

156
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 2: He can't.

157
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 4: He can't he's not playing defense, he can't stop the

158
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 4: other team from scoring.

159
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 2: He was scoring, he was doing.

160
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 4: What he can And then I think this year kind

161
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 4: of like how Josh Allen I've said that he put

162
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 4: too much on his shoulders.

163
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 2: I think Justin Herbert this year was.

164
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 4: Doing that because he felt the need that he had

165
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 4: to put the team on his shoulders because they weren't

166
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,239
Speaker 4: stopping the other ball on the other side. I don't

167
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,239
Speaker 4: think Justin Herbert is RESK.

168
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 3: Zero you say zero blame for how big of a

169
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 3: dumpster fire the Chargers are this year.

170
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 4: You have to he is the leader of this team.

171
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 4: They have lost is not because of him. He has

172
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 4: not been the reason that they have lost. It has

173
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 4: been bad coaching and the defense not being able to

174
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 4: stop a freaking score.

175
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 3: Also, we're not in that locker room, as you mentioned,

176
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 3: we don't know does a team believe what Staley was saying.

177
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 2: That's where that's why if.

178
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 3: They don't, this is where a leader steps up and

179
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 3: you bring the team together in a separate way to

180
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 3: be like, come on, guys, this is our team. This

181
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 3: is a reflection on us. We need to do this,

182
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 3: We need to bring this together. And this is where

183
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 3: not only getting paid as one of the top players

184
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,479
Speaker 3: in the league, but being a leader on this team.

185
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 3: I feel like there needs to be a sense of responsibility.

186
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 3: That's and I'm not saying he should get zero percent.

187
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 4: It's just that, like I look at it and I'm like, oh,

188
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,839
Speaker 4: justin herb, I would never even think that you get

189
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 4: what I'm saying.

190
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 2: But I'm not saying of course he's a Chargers fan.

191
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 4: Sure, But at the same time, what I'm saying is like,

192
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,199
Speaker 4: I think he's excellent, and I think that he has

193
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 4: actually this year has been held back, and I think

194
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,719
Speaker 4: it's the pressure. The one thing I will tell you,

195
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 4: I do wish he was a bit of a more

196
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 4: vocal lead, and he has said that that he isn't

197
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 4: like that and that he should be. He's also what

198
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 4: it's his third fourth year. Like, I know you brought

199
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 4: up Joe Burrow, same classifice. Understand, I think there is

200
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 4: excuse when you are not when your team as a

201
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 4: whole is not doing well, you feel defeated.

202
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 2: How are you?

203
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 4: How do you come out of that as a team

204
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 4: when all of your defeats have been your job?

205
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 3: Score, it's your job. You're the leader.

206
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 2: You got to find it wherever. Yeah, he's doing his job.

207
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 2: He can't go and play defense. You can motivate.

208
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 3: And maybe he.

209
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 4: Was and it wasn't and it wasn't working. But I

210
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 4: don't think it's him. I think it's just Brandon Staley

211
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 4: was there. They were not believing what he was selling,

212
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 4: and you have to believe what your coach sells in

213
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 4: the locker room. Whatever he you know what I'm saying,

214
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 4: Like there's no discipline, the penalties that they would get.

215
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,439
Speaker 2: It's like they have no respect for Brandon Staley.

216
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 4: That's what I saw every single time, Like they just

217
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 4: didn't care that they they loved.

218
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 2: That was by sick.

219
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 4: What was it, sixty four points Raiders put up on them.

220
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 4: That is a team that does not care. Six sixty

221
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 4: three thank.

222
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 3: You whoa one of okay franchise record for the Raiders.

223
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 4: You know, like that just goes to show how much

224
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 4: they were truly like we do.

225
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 2: Not care anymore.

226
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 6: I don't.

227
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:23,680
Speaker 3: I don't think it's a reflection of we do not care,

228
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 3: but it just wasn't the fit. It wasn't the right

229
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 3: fit in any way, shape or form. And the fact

230
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 3: that they gave him another year when there were so

231
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 3: many other great coaches available last year.

232
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 2: It is weird that like.

233
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 3: Sean Payton wanted to go to the Chargers, Yeah, really

234
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 3: wanted to vocally talked about wanting to go there, Like

235
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 3: now we're gonna keep bring the Sally for another year,

236
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 3: and why.

237
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 2: Just because you thought defensively he was gonna do something,

238
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 2: give him.

239
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 3: One more shot. Okay, it's time to flip the page

240
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:59,559
Speaker 3: and look into the future. Okay, he's gone. Who is

241
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:04,320
Speaker 3: the next best fit to be the Chargers head coach?

242
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 3: Not a lot of options, No right now, No, that

243
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:13,960
Speaker 3: could change. But if he is available, I think Jim

244
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,959
Speaker 3: Harbaugh would be a great fit for this franchise. He

245
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 3: thinks outside of the box, he brings culture, he knows

246
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 3: what it takes to win. He's already taken an NFL

247
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 3: team to the Super Bowl, the forty nine Ers in

248
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,840
Speaker 3: the twenty twelve Harba Bowl where they played the Ravens

249
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 3: and the light would sweat out like gosh, it's so

250
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 3: long ago like it was like.

251
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 2: Just a couple of years ago, and it wasn't.

252
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 3: But obviously the biggest question is he willing to leave

253
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 3: college football and the great Michigan program to come back

254
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 3: to the NFL.

255
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 2: And I think that is all going to come down to.

256
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 3: If the NCAA has some heavy penalties for him and

257
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 3: the school after everything that happened this year, then maybe

258
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,959
Speaker 3: I can see him leaving, or if they win a

259
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 3: national title, I can also see him being like, hey,

260
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 3: job done, check, Maybe I'm ready to come back. Plus

261
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 3: he's gonna be losing a lot of guys on that

262
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 3: Michigan team to the NFL Draft this season and then some.

263
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 2: Some big prosh for Hardbob. You have a franchise quarterback, yeah,

264
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 2: who is great.

265
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 3: Yes, Okay, his talent has not fully we have not

266
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:17,440
Speaker 3: been taken advantage of greed.

267
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 7: Yet.

268
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 3: You have great pieces already in place, and right now,

269
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 3: because of the season they're having, you're gonna have high

270
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 3: draft picks. Currently they have the fifth draft pick. There's

271
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 3: gonna be a new GM, so you also have more

272
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 3: say than you would if you were coming in with

273
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 3: someone already in place.

274
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 2: There's a lot of ifs. There are a lot of

275
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 2: ifs there.

276
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,319
Speaker 4: I don't think Carbo's coming to the NFL, but I

277
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 4: agree that I think he would be a good fit.

278
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 4: I think he is well respected, and like you said,

279
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 4: he brings a culture right, a hold with the Chargers

280
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,319
Speaker 4: need they do not have a culture, and they need that.

281
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 4: I don't think he's gonna leave those so like other

282
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 4: names that I've thought of, you know, Kellen Moore, who

283
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 4: is currently their offensive coordinator, young guy, but apparently has

284
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,199
Speaker 4: a really good relationship with Justin Herbert, and I don't

285
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 4: it wouldn't surprise me.

286
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 2: If they elevate him, even though they didn't make him

287
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 2: the interim head coach.

288
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 3: I know that, but that kind of right there would

289
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 3: be a little I would not I.

290
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 4: Would not be surprised. It's his first year as offensive coordinator.

291
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 4: He had mega success with the Cowboys. Everybody seems to

292
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 4: like that guy. Another one if we're thinking, you know,

293
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 4: maybe another defensive coordinator, Brian Flores of the Vikings. He

294
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 4: should get a lot of credit for what they've managed

295
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 4: to do. Losing you know, Kirk Cousins, losing Justin Jefferson.

296
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 4: He has motivated their defense to you know, step up

297
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 4: their game.

298
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 2: Every single time. The Minnesota's defense, I think is fit

299
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 2: is ranked fifth in the league right now.

300
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 4: Like I think that is also a real possibility. Brian

301
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 4: Flores more than Jim Harbaugh. Another name, everybody's Bill Belichick.

302
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 4: But here's the thing about the Chargers, which I think

303
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 4: we said this a couple of weeks ago when were

304
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 4: talking about the Chargers, there is not a lot of

305
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,680
Speaker 4: flexibility because of the.

306
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 2: Mega contracts with the mega names on that team.

307
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 4: But you're gonna get draft picks, right, but you got

308
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 4: there's still not at least next year, not as much

309
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 4: flexibility unless you're gonna get rid of players that are

310
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 4: currently on the Chargers that have big names. But it's

311
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 4: just there's a lot of money tied up that would

312
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,959
Speaker 4: that would be the only thing that maybe discourages a coach.

313
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 3: But Justin Herbert la a lot of other positive a

314
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 3: lot of good pieces already in place, ownership, not one

315
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 3: you're gonna get draft picks. This is going to be

316
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 3: it's interesting off season for the Chargers. I just hope, honestly,

317
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 3: I hope they get an offensive coach so Justin Herbert

318
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:41,440
Speaker 3: can just.

319
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 2: Reach and see because we've seen moments of.

320
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 3: Greatness for him, but it hasn't been obviously consistently throughout

321
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 3: his short career so far. But it's there, which is

322
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 3: why he got the Mega contract, and which is why

323
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,160
Speaker 3: the Chargers believe in him, which is why we continue

324
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 3: to put him in the conversations of these top tier quarterbacks.

325
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 3: But he needs that opportunity to fully be able to

326
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 3: prove that and show himself.

327
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I hope the Chargers do pick a coach that can,

328
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 4: like you said, bring a culture and just a different

329
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 4: level of mentality to that organization because it's just like

330
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 4: I had to say it, but it's like a JV team, right,

331
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 4: like you compare, Chargers are gonna be charged.

332
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 8: Like when.

333
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 3: When your name is like a thing of failure, that's

334
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 3: not good. All right, We're gonna take a quick break here,

335

Speaker 3: but when we come back, show how Tani is in

381
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 3: let's get back to the other big news this week.

382
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:46,119
Speaker 3: The big news in LA show Hey Otani is signed

383
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,320
Speaker 3: and officially in Dodger blue.

384
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 5: Now.

385
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 3: They held a welcome presser at Dodger Stadium. Monty seventy

386
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:58,399
Speaker 3: million people washed that presser. If that right there doesn't

387
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 3: convince you his worth and why he's worth every single

388
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,680
Speaker 3: penny they gave him, you don't you don't get it

389
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 3: now In case you missed it, his deal with the

390
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,159
Speaker 3: Dodgers is the biggest contract in North American sports history

391
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 3: by hundreds of millions of dollars. He got ten years,

392
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:19,159
Speaker 3: seven hundred million dollars, but he's deferring six hundred and

393
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 3: eighty million, meaning he'll be making around two million a

394
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 3: year for the next ten years. But remember he's gonna

395
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 3: be making millions in endorsements. Yeah, brand deals, all of

396
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,359
Speaker 3: these fine, He's gonna be just fine. Now some people

397
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:39,119
Speaker 3: are upset with this contract. I'm so impressed they found

398
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:43,879
Speaker 3: the legal loophole and beat the system. He allowed the

399
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:47,440
Speaker 3: Dodgers to have their cake and need it too.

400
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 2: That's crazy.

401
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:53,959
Speaker 3: His big like, it's his biggest theme throughout the presser

402
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:55,919
Speaker 3: because finally the first time we actually got to hear

403
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 3: it from Shoho Tani. There's been so much talk this offseason, speculation,

404
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,119
Speaker 3: what's he going to choose? Nobody knew what was going

405
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 3: to happen except for shohe Atani. He even said he

406
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 3: did not make his decision until the night before and

407
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,640
Speaker 3: then he posted it to Instagram saying that he chose

408
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 3: the Dodgers. So the biggest theme that came from this

409
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 3: entire presser that we heard from the Dodgers and equally

410
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 3: from Otani, is there eagerness to win.

411
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 2: Correct. They want to win, and they want to win now.

412
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:28,919
Speaker 3: And with Otani coming up with that deferred money contract idea,

413
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 3: they are able to not only have a once in

414
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 3: a lifetime player and do that, but they can go

415
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 3: out and they can get the other talent that they

416
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:39,199
Speaker 3: need now.

417
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 4: Absolutely in saying anybody who's like, oh I hate the Dodgers,

418
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 4: I'm like, I get it, I understand why, but this

419
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:52,399
Speaker 4: is all legal. They I'm sorry, I cannot believe it's legal.

420
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:56,640
Speaker 4: Like when I think it was a passon who posted

421
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 4: the CBA Oh yeah, and it's there's no cat you

422
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,919
Speaker 4: could do it whatever you won like that. No, it's crazy.

423
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 2: It is absolutely insane.

424
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,920
Speaker 4: And you know we've heard of players deferring money, yeah,

425
00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 4: but it's typically like I maybe thirty percent ish.

426
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 2: He's literally like deferring it all. And I just I

427
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 2: had no idea this was legal.

428
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 4: And I get why anyone is annoyed and mad at

429
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 4: the doll I get it.

430
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 7: I get it.

431
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,120
Speaker 3: Okay, but let's go back to also why he ultimately

432
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:30,119
Speaker 3: chose the Dodgers, right, they shared the same winning vision,

433
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 3: and there was a line that he mentioned. He said

434
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:34,879
Speaker 3: the Dodgers said they may have been one of the

435
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,679
Speaker 3: best regular season teams over the last decade, but they

436
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 3: considered it a failure because they only have one World

437
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 3: Series to show for it. Bingo, that's how you won

438
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 3: over the Unicorn the first part. But then they also

439
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:54,479
Speaker 3: had an ace in their back pocket. The Dodgers had

440
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,360
Speaker 3: a six year old video It's Kobe Bryant.

441
00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:58,640
Speaker 2: I'm rocking his shirt today.

442
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 3: Yes of Kobe ran encouraging show Heyo Tani to join

443
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 3: the Dodgers, sharing what it was like to be a

444
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 3: champion in Los Angeles, to say, Dodgers, we have to

445
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:16,520
Speaker 3: see that video. You have to release that video. We

446
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 3: have to relive the Kobe Bryant glory. And like I

447
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,400
Speaker 3: read that last night and I like just started crying.

448
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 4: Right it was impossible to not, like even right now

449
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 4: you mentioned I got the children again. Yeah, like that

450
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:30,639
Speaker 4: when when you read that that they had that and

451
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:31,199
Speaker 4: it was like.

452
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 3: Oh my, I'm getting covered and fields clutch clutch moment

453
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,359
Speaker 3: to do that, you know, like so smart and also

454
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 3: Kobe Bryant like he was he's the people's champion. Well,

455
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 3: and he was so the Toani talked about it. He

456
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,160
Speaker 3: was so dedicated to his craft and to his work. Yes,

457
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:54,199
Speaker 3: he was just living, eating, breathing basketball, and that's who

458
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 3: show Hayo Tani is with baseball. Yes, he wants to win,

459
00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 3: but he wants to grow the game. Correct, he wants

460
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,400
Speaker 3: to grow the game here, and he wants to grow

461
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 3: the game global. Exactly, exactly, this is everything. Bottom line,

462
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 3: The Dodgers are the perfect fit for sho Heyo Tani.

463
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,359
Speaker 2: He is home. He's finally gonna get that Hollywood.

464
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 3: Just the attention, the vibe, the eyeballs, everything that he's

465
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,120
Speaker 3: always deserved. I mean, I was lucky enough to cover

466
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,440
Speaker 3: the person personal six years of his career as a

467
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,880
Speaker 3: sideline reporder with the Angels. Like he is an incredible

468
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,440
Speaker 3: human who is so good at his craft. He is

469
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 3: Shoheyo Tani is a two time unanimous MVP who has

470
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 3: never won a playoff game. Correct, that's gonna change. Yeah,

471
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:36,920
Speaker 3: and that is going to change.

472
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 2: The big thing.

473
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:43,200
Speaker 4: Also, like he is going to make baseball just in

474
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,000
Speaker 4: general more popular.

475
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 2: It's like here he has right, but you're now going

476
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 2: just down the street to the Dodgers, up the street.

477
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 4: Up the street, down the street, around the corner, down

478
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 4: the freeway whatever. He is making baseball bigger by joining

479
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 4: a team like the Dodgers or you know, like big

480
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 4: market at the Yankees.

481
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, he is making baseball, not just the Dodgers baseball.

482
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 3: This is incredible for the baseball world. Let me just

483
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,360
Speaker 3: run through the top of the Dodgers lineup real quick.

484
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:16,439
Speaker 3: Mookie Betts MVP, Show Hey Otani MVP, Freddie Freeman, MVP,

485
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:20,880
Speaker 3: Will Smith, Max Munsey. The Dodgers are my World Series favorites,

486
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:22,120
Speaker 3: no questions asked.

487
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 12: Right or die baby. But now it's time to check

488
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:29,400
Speaker 12: in with Kevin Wirret and see what's treading cynical. As

489
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,680
Speaker 12: a longtime cynical Dodger fan last few years, you know,

490
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 12: I went into it kind of cynical, being like, oh,

491
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 12: here we go again, right, and Joey Otani has made

492
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:40,920
Speaker 12: me a believer again.

493
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, you should hard to be.

494
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 9: I'm not the only one.

495
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 10: Who feels this way because again, in price on opening

496
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 10: day at Dodger Stadium, has it changed.

497
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 2: It's over three.

498
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 10: Hundred and fifty dollars. Okay, Yeah, yeah, that's about what

499
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:51,919
Speaker 10: it's been.

500
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've been stand inside yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.

501
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 10: So a lot of us are excited for him to

502
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 10: begin wearing Dodger blue. But the story of today though

503
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 10: the NFL man. This game started off incredibly ugly backup

504
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 10: quarterback battle in Cincinnati Bengals and Vikings, and Minnesota jumped

505
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,399
Speaker 10: out to a seventeen to three lead. It looked like

506
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 10: they were gonna run away with it despite the fact

507
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 10: Nickmullens had a couple of early interceptions, but he played

508
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:20,360
Speaker 10: well after that through a couple of touchdown passes three

509
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,719
Speaker 10: hundred and three yards overall in the day. Jake Browning,

510
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 10: though after struggling early on also bouncing back in that

511
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 10: second half, including this outstanding touchdown pass to T Higgins to.

512
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 11: Tie the game forty eight seconds left in regulation. On

513
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 11: second and ten, Browning, scrambling right in trouble, throws it

514
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:37,639
Speaker 11: off his.

515
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 6: Back foot toward the end zone. O T Higgins wins

516
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 6: a jump ball for the football hit a touchdown, an

517
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:50,720
Speaker 6: incredible catch by t Higgins. How buck Begels have scored

518
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 6: with thirty nine seconds to go. I can't believe what

519
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:56,440
Speaker 6: T Higgins just did.

520
00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:00,080
Speaker 10: Wlw and the Bengals radio network with the car all

521
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,240
Speaker 10: Te Higgins catching that ball at around the one yard line,

522
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,679
Speaker 10: had to fight some tackles and stretch his arm across

523
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 10: the goal line to tie the game. With thirty nine

524
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,400
Speaker 10: seconds to go, they would force overtime, and it looked

525
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 10: like the Vikings would get themselves the victory in that

526
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,719
Speaker 10: extra period because after stopping the Bengals in their own territory,

527
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 10: they get the ball back and they would have a

528
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,440
Speaker 10: couple of chances to get a first down conversion in

529
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:26,200
Speaker 10: Bengals territory just short of field goal range, but the

530
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 10: Bengals defense holding strong.

531
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 11: Mullins will be under center, Chandler lined up behind him.

532
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:35,119
Speaker 11: The Vikings try the bush, the Bengals appear to have

533
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:38,280
Speaker 11: stopped him. No, Cincinnati got a great search up front

534
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 11: head looks like the Vikings lost Yarnitch going for the

535
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 11: toush push. The Bengals will take over at their own

536
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 11: forty two.

537
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 10: Yard line once again, the Bengals radio network with the call.

538
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 10: The Bengals would march down Tyler Boyd making an outstanding

539
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,880
Speaker 10: catch and run, breaking a tackle to get well within

540
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,159
Speaker 10: field goal range where the Bengals would win it. Twenty

541
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,679
Speaker 10: seven to twenty four. They're now eight and six. Believe

542
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,920
Speaker 10: it or not, the Vikings fall to seven and seven.

543
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 10: Second game of the day about to kickoff any minute

544
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 10: from now, Steelers and Colts in Indianapolis, and the day

545
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 10: is going to end with the Broncos and Lions over

546
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 10: in Detroit. Kickoff for that set for eight to fifteen

547
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 10: Eastern time college football action today. It was a great

548
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 10: game in Atlanta, the Celebration Bowl, the HBCU National Championship

549
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 10: between Florida and m and Howard and it's the Rattlers

550
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,200
Speaker 10: winning it after a back and forth affair in that

551
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,240
Speaker 10: fourth quarter thirty to twenty sixth to the final. And

552
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,600
Speaker 10: in the Myrtle Beach Bowl, Ohio blows out Georgia Southern

553
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 10: forty one to twenty one. Couple of games in action

554
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 10: right now at the New Orleans Bullets, Jacksonville stateon for

555
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,439
Speaker 10: Louisiana seventeen fourteen app State on top of Miami six

556
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 10: three they got about eleve minutes ago in the second quarter.

557
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:46,879
Speaker 10: At the Keer Bowl. In college hoops, we had a

558
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 10: surprising game between Baylor and Michigan State. The Spartans started

559
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,479
Speaker 10: off four and five. This year against number five Baylor,

560
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 10: who hadn't had a loss yet, and the Spartans won

561
00:26:56,119 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 10: to get this eighty eight to sixty four. And that's

562
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 10: just one of the notable things to happen today in

563
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 10: a college hoops Number two Kansas does beat Indiana seventy

564
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:05,520
Speaker 10: five to seventy one.

565
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,400
Speaker 3: Back you guys, Thanks Kevin, Thank you Kevin. You're listening

566
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,120
Speaker 3: to Fox Sports Saturday. I'm Alex Career here with Massy Bolgio.

567
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,159
Speaker 3: So we are broadcasting live from the tyreq dot com

568
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,880
Speaker 3: studios in Los Angeles. But let's bring in our first

569
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:19,119
Speaker 3: guest of the day, the smartest mind in sports, NFL

570
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 3: Networks analytics expert and my writer and I Cynthia Freelan Cynthia.

571
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 5: Happy Football Saturday.

572
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, Well, let's get started with the biggest news

573
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 3: of the week. The Charges fired Brandon Saley and their

574
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 3: GM on Friday morning.

575
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 2: What were your initial thoughts.

576
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,679
Speaker 5: I mean, look, that was an embarrassing game. I'm glad

577
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 5: that they didn't make history by you know, a lot

578
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 5: of people were calling for his job at the half,

579
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 5: but I'm glad they didn't do that. Brandon Ceely actually

580
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:53,240
Speaker 5: a class act is even doing the interview walking off field,

581
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 5: I mean, my goodness at halftime, so I think it

582
00:27:56,840 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 5: was time. I mean, look like Justin Herbert, while he's

583
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,160
Speaker 5: still very young, you don't want to waste any moment

584
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:06,360
Speaker 5: you have with the potential talent like that, a top

585
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 5: tier quarterback. They've got so many pieces in that locker room,

586
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:14,359
Speaker 5: Derwin James, like, just so many great players. It feels

587
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,119
Speaker 5: weird that they haven't been able to put it all

588
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 5: together and make a really like championship caliber team. I mean,

589
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 5: if you remember just last year that playoff, really crazy

590
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 5: loss to the Jags, which is the second biggest comeback

591
00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 5: of all time in the NFL. So just some strange

592
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,680
Speaker 5: stuff here, and now it's a chance for a clean

593
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 5: slate and a new look at it.

594
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, as you mentioned, I mean, Justin Herbert incredible talent.

595
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,719
Speaker 3: They have some great pieces in place, so it seems

596
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:44,560
Speaker 3: like a favorable opportunity. Who do you think is the

597
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 3: next best fit as their head coach?

598
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 5: You know, it seems that we fit is interesting, but

599
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 5: I feel like it will be an offensive minded person,

600
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 5: just because Brandon Staley was a defensive minded coach and

601
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 5: usually they kind of swing the pendulum back the other

602
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 5: direct I just hope that they put in place someone.

603
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 5: You know, look, I don't want anyone. I would like

604
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 5: everyone to keep their gruvy paws off of the Lions coordinator,

605
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 5: but Lions offensive course, that is mind we haven't. Yes,

606
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 5: Ben Jonson's name will be circulated in in this in

607
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 5: this effort, in general, in this coaching cycle, he might

608
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 5: be a candidate for it. Just thinking about creative offensive minds.

609
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 5: Maybe even Shane Waldron who's up there in Seattle as

610
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 5: of right now. You know he made Gino Smith last year,

611
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 5: like just absolutely come from like resurrected that man's career.

612
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 5: So I mean there's a number of interesting names that

613
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 5: are current coordinators now. But I hope they take an

614
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 5: approach that's very holistic because remember the past two coaches

615
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 5: that have come in, they haven't come in with a

616
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 5: GM in mind. So you know, Tom Telesco was there

617
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 5: and you know he was in place. So I hope

618
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 5: they take a much more holistic approach so that it

619
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 5: doesn't even matter if it's an offensive or defensive minded

620
00:29:57,560 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 5: kind of background and resume for the coach.

621
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 4: So another big story this week Cynthia was Cam Newton's

622
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 4: comments about certain quarterbacks being just game managers, specifically Dak Prescott,

623
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 4: who is currently an MVP candidate Rock Party to Asako Biloa.

624
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 4: Your boy, Jared Koff, what did you make of those comments?

625
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 4: Do you think he just like meant something else and

626
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 4: use game managed game managers. I just feel like we

627
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 4: maybe misunderstood what Cam Newton was trying to say.

628
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:31,520
Speaker 5: Do yourself a favorite and google Cam Newton. Like press conferences.

629
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 5: He has a pretty significant history of saying like maybe

630
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 5: the wrong words, like perhaps you know he's creating alternate

631
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 5: definitions of words that we're used to. Yeah, he has.

632
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:45,880
Speaker 5: He has a pretty long history of that, and look

633
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 5: like on some level, like I think he was I

634
00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 5: think where he was trying to go was a little

635
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 5: bit more like compliment. I think he was perhaps trying

636
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 5: to compliment if you guys like a Lamar Jackson perhaps

637
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 5: who you know he's read up there in that conversation

638
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:05,000
Speaker 5: as well. But I mean, there are you kind of

639
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,280
Speaker 5: can't deny that there are a lot of quarterbacks this

640
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 5: year playing that you know, they weren't even necessarily even

641
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 5: on the roster when the season started. We just saw

642
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 5: a game finish between Jake Browning and Nick Mullens. They

643
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 5: were both on the roster when the season started. But

644
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 5: if you would have told us ahead of time, like, hey,

645
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:21,920
Speaker 5: there's going to be this actually good game that ends

646
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 5: in overtime. But it's Jake Browning and Nick mals Moven,

647
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 5: Like what are you talking about? So I don't exactly

648
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:31,480
Speaker 5: know what he was saying, but you know whatever, you know, like,

649
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 5: I think Lamar Jackson is special and perhaps he should

650
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 5: just stick to complimenting the person season, trying to compliment,

651
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 5: not putting others. I don't know.

652
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:41,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, computer for.

653
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:44,160
Speaker 4: Real, because all of those quarterbacks are playing, they're doing

654
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 4: their job for their team.

655
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:46,920
Speaker 2: That's what was weird about it.

656
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 3: Now you mentioned this, Cynthia, this has been the year

657
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 3: of the backup quarterback. We've seen fifty six quarterbacks start

658
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 3: this season, which backup has kind of stand it out

659
00:31:57,600 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 3: stood out to you as a star.

660
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,960
Speaker 5: Well, I mean Jake Browning, that t Higgins catch that

661
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,800
Speaker 5: just ended this well, it's almost it was the game

662
00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:10,800
Speaker 5: tire to set us into overtime. That was I mean,

663
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,719
Speaker 5: he's helping te Higgins get paid. I think Jake Browning

664
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 5: probably because we didn't. I mean, he's out of Washington

665
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 5: and he had a nice career. There's like some stigma

666
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 5: around certain you know, pack twelve quarterbacks or you can

667
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:26,200
Speaker 5: even call it that anymore whatever, the former formerly known

668
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:30,080
Speaker 5: as pack twelve quarterback where you know, is what it is.

669
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 5: But like, like, look like he's out here dealing. He

670
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 5: uses his lags. He's kind of this multipurpose thread. He's

671
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 5: done a really great job, so I mean, if nothing else,

672
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:44,160
Speaker 5: he has secured himself a very long career as a backup, which,

673
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 5: by the way, that would be the job I would

674
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 5: want if I went into the NFL.

675
00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:51,720
Speaker 4: The AFC is a mess in the best way, so chaotic.

676
00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 4: We don't know what's going to happen, and I love it.

677
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 4: Who do you think is more in a groove in

678
00:32:56,720 --> 00:33:00,680
Speaker 4: this last stretch of the season. The Broncos are the Bills.

679
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 5: Well, okay, there's a couple of ways to look at this.

680
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 5: Number One, the Broncos started off so bad, like so

681
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 5: bad that we take their win streak or they're you know,

682
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 5: all but one game win streak and say, wow, they've

683
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:19,560
Speaker 5: like they're so different and you know all of their

684
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:21,520
Speaker 5: all of their flaws have been fixed, or you know,

685
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,520
Speaker 5: many of their flaws have been fixed, and I just

686
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 5: I hit the pause button on that for a second,

687
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 5: because you know, we saw, you see some things, like

688
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 5: like most teams, like I think they were overly kind

689
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 5: of dinged for being you know, one one possession losers,

690
00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,479
Speaker 5: but in the beginning of the season, and maybe overly

691
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:40,959
Speaker 5: celebrated for some of the stuff that we're doing now

692
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,200
Speaker 5: in terms of like where you think their trajectory could be,

693
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,680
Speaker 5: because you know, while I've seen Russell Wilson significantly improve,

694
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:48,840
Speaker 5: I still see a lot of the stuff that gets

695
00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 5: him into trouble as of late. You know, in his

696
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,480
Speaker 5: later career, he used to be great at improvising and

697
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,400
Speaker 5: like you know, throwing on the run outside of the

698
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 5: box with no protection, but that doesn't seem to be

699
00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 5: the case anymore. And ever since he hurt his hand

700
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 5: all the way back in Seattle a couple of seasons ago,

701
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 5: like you know, that was it just changed the way

702
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,399
Speaker 5: he plays. So while I think they it's been great

703
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,120
Speaker 5: to see them have a big turnaround. I love when

704
00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:14,400
Speaker 5: things are competitive. Pats are TAM's crushing it. Baron Browning

705
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:16,440
Speaker 5: is a difference maker and he didn't play at the

706
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,799
Speaker 5: beginning of the season. I still think like we got

707
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,479
Speaker 5: to pump the brakes there, just because we're seeing Josh

708
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,840
Speaker 5: Allen in his prime and we're seeing an opportunity for

709
00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:27,400
Speaker 5: I mean, look, it's not their offense, it's the problems.

710
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:29,800
Speaker 5: It's really the Bill's defense and all of their injuries,

711
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,360
Speaker 5: and they've got even more. Ajfaness isn't playing, you know,

712
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 5: Micah Hyde's not playing this week either, the spine of

713
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,399
Speaker 5: their defense. So it just feels like with Josh Allen

714
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 5: in this part of his career where it means so

715
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:42,440
Speaker 5: much to you know, for him and this is this

716
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:45,160
Speaker 5: is his prime where not to say that Russell Wilkins

717
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 5: passed it, but he's a different type of player now.

718
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 5: So I just feel like the Bills, if they can

719
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 5: get this, if they can beat the Cowboys, that's a

720
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 5: much scarier, more dangerous team in the playoffs to me

721
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 5: than a team like if they make the playoffs, then

722
00:34:57,520 --> 00:34:59,719
Speaker 5: a team like the Broncos would be okay.

723
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 3: So that's the game of the week, the Cowboys at

724
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 3: the Bills. What are the numbers saying, who are you

725
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 3: taking and why?

726
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 5: This is an interesting one because ahead of this week

727
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,319
Speaker 5: I had the Bills winning this twenty seven to twenty five.

728
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 5: Now I keep rerunning it with all these injuries. Like

729
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 5: I said, aj Fanessa out, Micah Hyde out, I'm gonna

730
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 5: have to see what goes on because there's some Cowboys

731
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:21,760
Speaker 5: are on there injury report too, So this is about

732
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:24,359
Speaker 5: as close as they can get. I do actually still

733
00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,919
Speaker 5: by a tiny margin. Have the Bills pulling this out

734
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,880
Speaker 5: in part because it's outdoor in their territory. It's going

735
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:32,960
Speaker 5: to be hard for the Cowboys to be able to

736
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 5: hear things. We've seen the Cowboys abandon the run game

737
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:37,759
Speaker 5: perhaps a little bit too early this season. It's weird

738
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,879
Speaker 5: saying that, like just Mike McCarthy right, Like it's weird

739
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,760
Speaker 5: saying that, but it's true. And if they can contain,

740
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:45,920
Speaker 5: like they need to put like three players on ceedee

741
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,320
Speaker 5: lamb and force the second guy to beat you. But

742
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,920
Speaker 5: I will say, in terms of expected points added EPA,

743
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 5: the Cowboys or I'm sorry, the Bills are actually the

744
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 5: worst at the number two receiver. So if you have

745
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:02,080
Speaker 5: like a Brandon Cook in your fantasy lineup, or maybe

746
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,840
Speaker 5: even I guess you could you could even say like that,

747
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:07,439
Speaker 5: you know, maybe it's a tight end that you should

748
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:09,799
Speaker 5: be looking at too. Uh, If you have either one

749
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 5: of those, perhaps that's good for you in fantasy, but

750
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 5: watch out for that. It could be like the Cooks

751
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:15,640
Speaker 5: Killer game.

752
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,359
Speaker 3: I love when you talk numbers to us. Cynthia, thank

753

775
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,840

00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:32,840
Speaker 3: security stopped him. Happened in Brooklyn, and it's happened at Staples.

780
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:34,640
Speaker 3: It's always gonna be Staples to me, you guys, it is.

781
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:37,480
Speaker 3: They asked where his credentials were and if he worked

782
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:38,279
Speaker 3: for the tea.

783
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:40,640
Speaker 2: I'm going to be honest.

784
00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 3: The red coats at Staples, you guys, no joke. I

785
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 3: have seen them stop a list celebrities. They don't have

786
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 3: the proper bass with them.

787
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,880
Speaker 2: But you are a star on the t Yes, No,

788
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,479
Speaker 2: what you should know Looston Reeves is at this point

789
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,960
Speaker 2: what that's funny? But I wonder if he finds it funny.

790
00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:59,880
Speaker 2: I hope so, I'm sure you don't. Yeah, like it's

791
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 2: goodness I was talking about on the podcast. Well, let's

792
00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:06,319
Speaker 2: stick with basketball. I got I don't do.

793
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:11,680
Speaker 4: Not eject Nicola Yok from the game on Serbian Heritage

794
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:13,320
Speaker 4: Nights after.

795
00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:16,239
Speaker 2: One technical foul? Did you know what that was? One

796
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:20,359
Speaker 2: technical foul? The ref said in the quarter, second quarter,

797
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:22,840
Speaker 2: And the ref said, is because he used the language

798
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 2: that they aimed something to him. He said, mother, you

799
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:28,800
Speaker 2: know what? And it's like, oh my gosh, are we

800
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 2: not grown men? Like and I could not believe humans, like, like,

801
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,160
Speaker 2: what are we doing to the moment? What are we doing?

802
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:43,600
Speaker 2: You ejected? This nobody comes to see the ref play

803
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:47,439
Speaker 2: Heritage night, Dude.

804
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:49,400
Speaker 3: Is where there's like a little too much ego for

805
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 3: like refs. We've seen this across all sports. It's like,

806
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:57,239
Speaker 3: understand the moment and the situation. Yes, and majority of

807
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,600
Speaker 3: this crowd is here to see this person.

808
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:01,240
Speaker 13: You just subject.

809
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,399
Speaker 4: The correct call in that moment was you tell him

810
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 4: don't speak like that to me again, or you're out,

811
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:06,200
Speaker 4: or you're out.

812
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:09,520
Speaker 2: That's what you are supposed to do. Rest. Yeah, I

813
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 2: can't believe that.

814
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:14,080
Speaker 3: Okay, you go another due, which could also be a

815
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:15,080
Speaker 3: Donut's really hilarious.

816
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,879
Speaker 2: I always check how to spell people's names, especially if

817
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 2: they are Hall of Famers.

818
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:20,399
Speaker 4: Yeah.

819
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:24,200
Speaker 3: Mike mc daniels responded to Peyton Manning asking him to

820
00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:28,799
Speaker 3: interview him, and it made headlines. He responded saying, f yes,

821
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:33,839
Speaker 3: you are Ethan Peyton Manning, bro. But he's spelled Peyton wrong.

822
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,520
Speaker 3: I tell you, I felt this so hard because I

823
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:39,320
Speaker 3: am like a rug rat when it comes to spelling.

824
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:40,720
Speaker 2: I am not a great speller.

825
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 3: So I double triple quadruple check when I'm sending something

826
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,000
Speaker 3: that I have everyone's name like perfect.

891
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:31,360
Speaker 3: all right, But let's start in the NBA right now,

892
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,799
Speaker 3: because we've got a lot of weird drama this week,

893
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:39,080
Speaker 3: and we're gonna start with, uh, the Draymond Greens suspension.

894
00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:42,279
Speaker 3: I feel like we were just talking about we were well.

895
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:45,360
Speaker 3: Draymond Green will be suspended indefinitely by the NBA, the

896
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:49,480
Speaker 3: league announced Wednesday. We still don't know what that timeframe is,

897
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,400
Speaker 3: what the Warriors will do on top about that. On

898
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:55,640
Speaker 3: top of that, what we do know is that his

899
00:42:55,719 --> 00:43:02,120
Speaker 3: suspension began immediately, and the league said that he will

900
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:04,960
Speaker 3: be required to meet certain league and team conditions before

901
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:09,200
Speaker 3: he can return to play per Woes. Now, Warriors GM

902
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:13,240
Speaker 3: Green's agent are expected to We're expected to meet Thursday

903
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:16,000
Speaker 3: to start discussing a path of counseling to help Green

904
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:21,520
Speaker 3: move forward. But in case you don't remember all the incidences,

905
00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 3: this is a repeat offender. This is his sixth suspension,

906
00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:29,080
Speaker 3: his second in like two weason. Let me just refresh

907
00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:33,200
Speaker 3: your memory. Twenty sixteen Game five finals hitting Lebron James

908
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:36,319
Speaker 3: and the growing twenty eighteen verbal fight with KD while

909
00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:38,800
Speaker 3: they were on the same team. Twenty twenty three, his

910
00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:43,440
Speaker 3: sixteenth technical foul, twenty twenty twenty three, the playoffs stomp,

911
00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:47,359
Speaker 3: last month five games for the Rudy Gobert choke hold,

912
00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:50,200
Speaker 3: and this week the slap And.

913
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:52,000
Speaker 2: You forgot about punching Jordan Poole.

914
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:53,799
Speaker 3: I forgot about punching Because that's how.

915
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:54,320
Speaker 8: Much it is.

916
00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 2: That's a repeat offender. Isn't that crazy?

917
00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:01,799
Speaker 3: It's just at this point it's unaccepted. Yeah, it's you're

918
00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:05,879
Speaker 3: a danger to other players. You're also a grown man

919
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:08,880
Speaker 3: that knowes the difference between right or wroun. You're thirty

920
00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:12,480
Speaker 3: three years old. You are lucky that you have not

921
00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:16,919
Speaker 3: seriously hurt someone. Yeah, I mean ultimately you're hurting your team.

922
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:21,600
Speaker 3: Where do the Warriors go from here? Like, when do

923
00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 3: they say we have had enough? You are more of

924
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:31,239
Speaker 3: a liability than an asset these days. I don't know

925
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 3: how you move forward with it.

926
00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:35,400
Speaker 4: I don't know how Steph Curry isn't over it. Like, Bro,

927
00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:38,160
Speaker 4: you are toxic at this point.

928
00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:40,399
Speaker 2: Like you said, what are you doing for us? You're

929
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:41,279
Speaker 2: not helping us win.

930
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:46,960
Speaker 4: You are a distraction and you are just irresponsible. Because

931
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:49,400
Speaker 4: there's a lot of hot heads in the NBA, right,

932
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 4: but not to this degree.

933
00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:57,160
Speaker 3: Well, these are just these are obvious hits, white chokes, stomps,

934
00:44:57,440 --> 00:45:01,640
Speaker 3: Like there's a difference of being aggressive and playing hard. Right,

935
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:05,600
Speaker 3: this is like just flat out you are hurting something, right.

936
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:07,480
Speaker 4: Like you're violent because it's like to me, you know,

937
00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:10,600
Speaker 4: like dyl in the Villain, right, Patrick Beverley, Like to me,

938
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:13,919
Speaker 4: I get being emotional and you shoving someone, but that's

939
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:16,880
Speaker 4: not where you're doing, Draymond, You were being violent.

940
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:20,760
Speaker 2: That swing against use of Nurkic was a swing.

941
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,400
Speaker 3: Oh no, it was like it could be a knock

942
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:25,920
Speaker 3: or it could be a slap, whatever you wanna like

943
00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:27,279
Speaker 3: call it or say, but it was.

944
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:29,680
Speaker 2: It was vicious. It was vicious.

945
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:32,400
Speaker 4: There was not an accident. Don't you ain't gotta lie

946
00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:34,839
Speaker 4: to kick at Draymon because we know who you are.

947
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:36,000
Speaker 3: You shown us who you are.

948
00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:38,640
Speaker 4: Yes, if it quacts like a duck, talks like a duck, whatever,

949
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:40,720
Speaker 4: the duck boy, you are a problem.

950
00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:43,040
Speaker 2: And I don't know why it took so long.

951
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:44,839
Speaker 4: I think the last time we talked about it, I said,

952
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 4: he's not scared of the league, He's not scared of

953
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:48,200
Speaker 4: the Warriors.

954
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:49,320
Speaker 2: He ain't scared of nobody.

955
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:52,040
Speaker 4: And in reality, somebody's gonna go beat him, someone's gonna

956
00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:52,520
Speaker 4: kick his butt.

957
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:55,239
Speaker 3: No, this is this is why right now we're seeing

958
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:58,000
Speaker 3: he suspended indefinitely, because there really needs to be that

959
00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:01,640
Speaker 3: deeper conversation of Okay, obviously the five games didn't do anything,

960
00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:03,440
Speaker 3: the one games before didn't do anything.

961
00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:05,520
Speaker 2: How do we get this message of cross at this

962
00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:06,960
Speaker 2: is not acceptable?

963
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:07,279
Speaker 5: Right?

964
00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:08,799
Speaker 2: Is he gonna get booted.

965
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:14,640
Speaker 3: For the rest of the season, right cause, imagine months,

966
00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:16,600
Speaker 3: imagine right now, the Warriors.

967
00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:19,400
Speaker 4: Get on a run, on a rhythm without him, Why

968
00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:20,680
Speaker 4: would the Warriors take him back?

969
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:23,440
Speaker 2: I don't think you can, right.

970
00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:26,439
Speaker 4: That's that's what I'm thinking. They're probably gonna feel like, Okay,

971
00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:29,319
Speaker 4: he's gonna he's still allowed to practice with the team,

972
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:31,680
Speaker 4: which I think is silly. But I get why he

973
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:34,200
Speaker 4: has to stay in shape. Fine by fine, yeah, but like, watch,

974
00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:37,600
Speaker 4: the Warriors are gonna get in a rhythm, and I

975
00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:40,239
Speaker 4: think Warriors are gonna be like ooo, so can we.

976
00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:42,640
Speaker 2: Just keep this suspension like the rest of the year.

977
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:43,440
Speaker 5: I don't. It's just.

978
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,560
Speaker 3: It's just hard because he seems like such a cool

979
00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:52,279
Speaker 3: person outside of his like anger issues on the court.

980
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:55,600
Speaker 3: When you listen to his podcast, he has great things

981
00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:57,680
Speaker 3: to say about the game, He has great insight. He

982
00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:01,920
Speaker 3: seems like such a personable, normal person who just is

983
00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:05,400
Speaker 3: not handling. I don't know if it's because I heard

984
00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:07,719
Speaker 3: Charles Barkley talking about this on the Dan Patrick Show

985
00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:10,239
Speaker 3: the day after happen. It's like you see this in

986
00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:12,680
Speaker 3: players sometimes when you start to age and you're not

987
00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:14,920
Speaker 3: able to keep up your play the way you used.

988
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:15,320
Speaker 2: To want it to be.

989
00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:18,080
Speaker 3: But like this goes back to twenty sixteen at Game

990
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:20,359
Speaker 3: five in the finals, hitting Lebron James and the groin

991
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:23,359
Speaker 3: and you're out of game in the finals to cause paint.

992
00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:27,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, again, you're not just shoving somebody because you're angry, right,

993
00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:29,280
Speaker 4: it's Yeah, there's.

994
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:31,239
Speaker 2: Plenty of hot heads in the NBA. We see it

995
00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:34,560
Speaker 2: all the time. Yeah you are. You make them look

996
00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:37,839
Speaker 2: like they're nothing compared.

997
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:38,040
Speaker 9: To what you do.

998
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:39,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's crazy.

999
00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:40,160
Speaker 7: So I.

1000
00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 2: No, it needed to happen.

1001
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:45,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, it needed to happen a while, seeing to see

1002
00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 3: how long it's going to be. He's going to be

1003
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:50,600
Speaker 3: in like anger management classes. Yeah, listen if that helps her,

1004
00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:52,080
Speaker 3: who knows.

1005
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:53,000
Speaker 2: I just don't.

1006
00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:55,880
Speaker 3: I don't think he thinks he's done anything wrong. He

1007
00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:58,239
Speaker 3: said that, he goes, I don't apologize for anything. I

1008
00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:01,279
Speaker 3: apologize because I didn't mean to do that and I

1009
00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:04,680
Speaker 3: hit him, which is such like a like like a

1010
00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:06,520
Speaker 3: little kid, like not I didn't do anything wrong, but

1011
00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:08,080
Speaker 3: like I guess I'll say I'm sorry, so I don't

1012
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:10,440
Speaker 3: get in trouble, right, Like, I just don't think he

1013
00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:12,399
Speaker 3: believes that he's done anything wrong.

1014
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:13,759
Speaker 2: And so how is he going to change.

1015
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:16,040
Speaker 3: If he thinks he is not in the wrong, you

1016
00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:18,279
Speaker 3: just like and you lose what you love, which is

1017
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:18,680
Speaker 3: the game.

1018
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:21,959
Speaker 2: Right, He's got a podcast, he'll be fine, he'll be fine.

1019
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:24,640
Speaker 3: All right. Well, let's move to another weird kind of

1020
00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:28,120
Speaker 3: at a character situation that we saw in the NBA

1021
00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:28,640
Speaker 3: this week.

1022
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,920
Speaker 2: It's the Yannis game ball situation. So let's run through it.

1023
00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:32,160
Speaker 11: Right.

1024
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:35,279
Speaker 3: So, Yanna scored a career high sixty four points on

1025
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:37,920
Speaker 3: Wednesday night, also a Bucks franchise record.

1026
00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:38,280
Speaker 2: Correct.

1027
00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:42,000
Speaker 3: However, a rookie on the Pacers also scored his first

1028
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:46,400
Speaker 3: NBA point. So now, usually in both these situations you

1029
00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:49,920
Speaker 3: would get the game ball. So after the game, we

1030
00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:56,320
Speaker 3: see Yannis going ham like, yelling at people, running towards

1031
00:48:56,400 --> 00:49:00,239
Speaker 3: the Pacers locker room. Someone's holding him back, trying to

1032
00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:07,919
Speaker 3: find this game ball. And my first thought was, Okay,

1033
00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:11,279
Speaker 3: I didn't I didn't realize how important these games ball

1034
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:14,160
Speaker 3: were in these situations, and especially someone like Janis, who

1035
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:17,920
Speaker 3: was such a seems like a calm, like a calm,

1036
00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:21,719
Speaker 3: humbled spirit. He like cracks a lot of jokes. He's

1037
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:22,960
Speaker 3: a very happy person.

1038
00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:28,160
Speaker 2: It just but I it's hard.

1039
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:33,239
Speaker 3: I understand why you would react over a game ball,

1040
00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:38,440
Speaker 3: because again, it's a franchise record, a career record for you,

1041
00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:43,200
Speaker 3: you're at home, like you're looking for the game ball

1042
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:47,920
Speaker 3: while you're at home. It just it felt like a

1043
00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:48,920
Speaker 3: weird reaction.

1044
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:51,800
Speaker 2: I mean, I get what you're saying, weird because it

1045
00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:52,240
Speaker 2: was Yannest.

1046
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:52,600
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1047
00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:54,919
Speaker 2: I am on his side.

1048
00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:59,720
Speaker 4: The Pacers did this on purpose. Oscar Sheboy has scored,

1049
00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:02,040
Speaker 4: but they're saying, oh, no, it was in the nd

1050
00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:04,240
Speaker 4: season tournament, so it doesn't count.

1051
00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:08,799
Speaker 2: He's already scored. What are you talking about, Oscar she Play.

1052
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:10,160
Speaker 2: Nobody's heard of you.

1053
00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:12,560
Speaker 4: I am so happy you hit a free throw in

1054
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:17,440
Speaker 4: that game. Congratulations. Your coach can give you something else.

1055
00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:21,200
Speaker 4: When the coach Carlile spoke after, he's like, oh, they

1056
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:22,560
Speaker 4: just wanted to give it to the rookie.

1057
00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:23,960
Speaker 2: I was like, somebody slap this man.

1058
00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:27,040
Speaker 4: Do not play with me that you think this rookie

1059
00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:30,240
Speaker 4: deserved the ball over Janni Santa Tookompo breaking the record.

1060
00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:33,840
Speaker 2: For the franchise at home. Do not play with me.

1061
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:36,040
Speaker 2: I could not believe the Pacers.

1062
00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:38,200
Speaker 4: Did that, and I couldn't believe Rick Carlile made it

1063
00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:40,920
Speaker 4: seem like it wasn't a big deal. Bro, I was

1064
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:43,520
Speaker 4: one hundred with you. Honest, I would have been throwing

1065
00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:46,880
Speaker 4: punches if that was my game ball. Sixty four points?

1066
00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:48,840
Speaker 4: How hard are it is to score sixty points?

1067
00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:49,400
Speaker 3: It's insane.

1068
00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:51,799
Speaker 2: That's not an easy thing to do. He may never

1069
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:54,359
Speaker 2: do it again. Yeah, and he can't break his own record.

1070
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:56,520
Speaker 2: I mean he can, but again, that's too hard to do.

1071
00:50:56,920 --> 00:50:59,480
Speaker 3: And the hard part is after and his presser, it's like, well,

1072
00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:01,040
Speaker 3: did you get the It's like, yeah, but I don't

1073
00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:02,920
Speaker 3: feel like that was so freaking funny. Yeah, I got

1074
00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:04,480
Speaker 3: the ball, but I don't feel it was like the

1075
00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:05,120
Speaker 3: game ball.

1076
00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:09,000
Speaker 4: That was such a funny answer because I think they

1077
00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:10,840
Speaker 4: have two balls you, so it's like.

1078
00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:14,120
Speaker 3: You can tell which one has been Like yeah, but the.

1079
00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:20,440
Speaker 4: Seriously, pacers, seriously, like how anyone let that happen and

1080
00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:22,759
Speaker 4: how they made it seem like it wasn't a big deal.

1081
00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:27,560
Speaker 4: Nobody knew who Oscar Shebwey was until this moment one

1082
00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:28,560
Speaker 4: point in the game.

1083
00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:29,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you've.

1084
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:32,040
Speaker 4: Scored already this season, but you're telling me it doesn't

1085
00:51:32,040 --> 00:51:33,480
Speaker 4: count because it was an in season tournament.

1086
00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:35,960
Speaker 2: Get out of here, Get out of here. Giannis deserves

1087
00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:37,960
Speaker 2: that ball from the get go, and I support him.

1088
00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:40,320
Speaker 2: He should have swung. Not not promoting violence. I'm just

1089
00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:41,040
Speaker 2: saying I would have swung.

1090
00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:43,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what he needed. He needed a little mansy.

1091
00:51:43,239 --> 00:51:43,879
Speaker 9: Oh my god.

1092
00:51:44,040 --> 00:51:46,239
Speaker 3: I needed a little like Moncey Cracker, like off to

1093
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:48,759
Speaker 3: the side, like I'm angry. Yes, here she is, Yes,

1094
00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:52,120
Speaker 3: fight for me, Yes, and the anger hype woman.

1095
00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:53,640
Speaker 4: I would have come out with three balls out of

1096
00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:58,040
Speaker 4: the Pacers locker room, every single ball and maybe then some.

1097
00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:01,120
Speaker 2: Absolutely I am team Jannis.

1098
00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:05,040
Speaker 4: On this one hundred percent. I don't care what anybody

1099
00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:06,279
Speaker 4: in the Pacers organization says.

1100
00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:08,200
Speaker 2: No, you were wrong, you were wrong.

1101
00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:10,080
Speaker 3: I love this fire. All right, we're gonna take it

1102
00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:12,839
Speaker 3: quick break here. When we come back, we have Fox

1103
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:16,960
Speaker 3: Sports MLB analysts, my other partner in crime, Ben Verlander,

1104
00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:17,600
Speaker 3: joining the show.

1105
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:19,360
Speaker 2: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

1106
00:52:21,160 --> 00:52:24,160
Speaker 8: Rubisky and the gun double slot to his wide side left.

1107
00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:27,359
Speaker 8: He's back to throw it, throws it for the goal

1108
00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:31,480
Speaker 8: line and that's a touchdown inside the left. Pilot comes George.

1109
00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:34,719
Speaker 8: It is Deontae Johnson. How about that?

1110
00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:37,920
Speaker 2: How about that Steelers radio network?

1111
00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:40,880
Speaker 4: They were up thirteen zero, but it looks like the

1112
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:43,560
Speaker 4: Colts just got in the end zone.

1113
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:46,160
Speaker 2: Yes, early in the second quarter.

1114
00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:50,280
Speaker 4: So Steelers are still up thirteen to six against the Colts.

1115
00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:54,000
Speaker 2: Plenty of game left. Very exciting.

1116
00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:56,160
Speaker 3: I gotta say, this is the first like weekend I'm

1117
00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:59,160
Speaker 3: okay listening to Christmas music as we have like Alvin

1118
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:01,000
Speaker 3: and the Chipmunks in the background. I put it on

1119
00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:03,239
Speaker 3: for the first time on Thursday, and I'm like, I

1120
00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:05,120
Speaker 3: am ready for Christmas music in my life.

1121
00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:06,960
Speaker 2: Dude, I can't believe in two weeks it's going to

1122
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:07,719
Speaker 2: be twenty twenty four.

1123
00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:09,080
Speaker 3: Let's not go there yet. You're lit be in a

1124
00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:12,320
Speaker 3: Fox Sports Saturday. I'm Alex Curry here with Manci Belogias.

1125
00:53:12,320 --> 00:53:14,800
Speaker 3: We were broadcasting live from the tyrok dot Com studios

1126
00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:18,320
Speaker 3: in Los Angeles. Let's bring in my other work partner

1127
00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:21,400
Speaker 3: Fox Sports MLB analysts, the host of Flip and Bats,

1128
00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:23,319
Speaker 3: Ben Verlander.

1129
00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:26,520
Speaker 7: Ben there, I'm here. Thanks for having me.

1130
00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:27,920
Speaker 2: Oh, we always love having you.

1131
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:28,120
Speaker 1: Now.

1132
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:30,480
Speaker 3: You were there Thursday at the show, Hey, Tani Presser,

1133
00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:34,200
Speaker 3: seventy million people watched it on TV.

1134
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:36,480
Speaker 2: Set the scene. What was it like being there?

1135
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:37,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was.

1136
00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:41,600
Speaker 7: It was chaos and it was only it was only media,

1137
00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:44,840
Speaker 7: so I didn't really know what to expect. Just felt

1138
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:48,400
Speaker 7: that you know, I should be there and should have

1139
00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:50,520
Speaker 7: a tweet about it and stuff that I got there

1140
00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:53,359
Speaker 7: and it was just absolutely packed. There were probably over

1141
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:57,440
Speaker 7: one thousand media members there. Everybody was very excited. All

1142
00:53:57,560 --> 00:54:01,640
Speaker 7: the you know Dodgers, you know, or they had their

1143
00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:03,439
Speaker 7: manager there. There are a bunch of people there.

1144
00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:04,480
Speaker 5: It really was.

1145
00:54:04,920 --> 00:54:07,439
Speaker 7: It was a chaotic scene for sure, and then show

1146
00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:11,440
Speaker 7: He showed up and honestly was It was probably about

1147
00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:15,720
Speaker 7: seventy five percent was Japanese media and literally people cheered

1148
00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:17,080
Speaker 7: when show He came out on stage.

1149
00:54:17,120 --> 00:54:17,680
Speaker 8: It was crazy.

1150
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:18,239
Speaker 2: I love that.

1151
00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:21,239
Speaker 3: Now we've both been predicting Otani to the Dodgers, like

1152
00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:25,320
Speaker 3: since last offseason. Why is this the perfect fit for

1153
00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:25,960
Speaker 3: both of them?

1154
00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:30,120
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think there's so many reasons that this was

1155
00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:32,000
Speaker 7: the perfect sit. You know, you could go through other

1156
00:54:32,120 --> 00:54:35,120
Speaker 7: teams and find pros to show hey going there, but

1157
00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:37,880
Speaker 7: they were also cons for going to those teams. With

1158
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:40,960
Speaker 7: the Dodgers, there never really felt like a con for

1159
00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:43,719
Speaker 7: him ending up there. You know, they're a team that

1160
00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:47,080
Speaker 7: is ready to win right now and for the future.

1161
00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:50,239
Speaker 7: They have MVPs everywhere you look in that line up,

1162
00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:53,840
Speaker 7: Mookie Bets, Freddie Freeman and those guys, and then you

1163
00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:57,399
Speaker 7: know their willingness to Not every team can afford seven

1164
00:54:57,520 --> 00:55:00,239
Speaker 7: hundred million dollars and they were able to do that.

1165
00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:02,440
Speaker 7: And I think it was the perfect storm for him.

1166
00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:04,640
Speaker 7: And it's not it's not going to result in a

1167
00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:07,759
Speaker 7: huge move for him or something that he's uncomfortable with.

1168
00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:10,719
Speaker 7: It's right down the road, and it just always felt

1169
00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:12,160
Speaker 7: like it was going to be that perfect fit.

1170
00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:16,839
Speaker 4: So obviously, Ben, the Dodgers are now favored to win,

1171
00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:20,359
Speaker 4: but in baseball, more than any other sport, the best

1172
00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:24,480
Speaker 4: team doesn't always win. So if the Dodgers don't win

1173
00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:27,520
Speaker 4: the World Series, would you say it's a failure of

1174
00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:30,319
Speaker 4: a season or do you think just reaching the World

1175
00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:32,960
Speaker 4: Series in the first year is success enough?

1176
00:55:33,719 --> 00:55:36,759
Speaker 7: You know, I think to answer that question, it's going

1177
00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:40,239
Speaker 7: to be over the ten years. You know, I would

1178
00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:42,920
Speaker 7: put a number on it and say they have to

1179
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:46,040
Speaker 7: win multiple championships over the ten years for it to

1180
00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:49,680
Speaker 7: be successful. Do I think next year, you know, I

1181
00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:54,839
Speaker 7: honestly wouldn't unless they end up getting Yamamoto, I still

1182
00:55:55,160 --> 00:55:59,720
Speaker 7: would be unsure about their pitching. And obviously they're the favorite,

1183
00:55:59,760 --> 00:56:02,520
Speaker 7: but he's not going to pitch next year, So would

1184
00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:04,759
Speaker 7: I consider it a failure. Next year if they're not

1185
00:56:04,840 --> 00:56:08,719
Speaker 7: World Series champions No, they'll they's fall so difficult to

1186
00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:11,640
Speaker 7: say you got to win next year or else. That's

1187
00:56:11,719 --> 00:56:13,880
Speaker 7: just not out it works. But over the course of

1188
00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:16,719
Speaker 7: his ten year contract with the Dodgers, if they don't

1189
00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:19,680
Speaker 7: win multiple World Series championships, I would say at that

1190
00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:21,280
Speaker 7: point it would be a failure.

1191
00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:23,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, let's talk about that contract because some people

1192
00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:26,480
Speaker 3: are impressed with it and some are upset with how

1193
00:56:26,520 --> 00:56:30,160
Speaker 3: a Tony structured his contract deferring six hundred and eighty

1194
00:56:30,239 --> 00:56:32,279
Speaker 3: million of the seven hundred million. Where do you sit

1195
00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:32,719
Speaker 3: with all of this?

1196
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:38,719
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's it's so unique, right, and we heard unprecedented

1197
00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:40,640
Speaker 7: deferrals when it first came out, and we didn't know

1198
00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:43,160
Speaker 7: what that meant. Well, now we do know what it means.

1199
00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:45,680
Speaker 7: And the guy's making seven hundred million, and he's only

1200
00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:47,279
Speaker 7: going to be making two million a year for the

1201
00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:50,160
Speaker 7: next ten years and then getting six hundred and eighty

1202
00:56:50,280 --> 00:56:53,799
Speaker 7: million when those ten years are up. So I went

1203
00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:56,600
Speaker 7: back and forth a lot on this, and where I

1204
00:56:56,719 --> 00:56:59,319
Speaker 7: finished up was that I think it makes a lot

1205
00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:02,480
Speaker 7: of sense, and it's not like the Dodgers are pulling

1206
00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:04,680
Speaker 7: a fast one over the league. You know, this is

1207
00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:07,640
Speaker 7: these are this is well within the rules. It's not

1208
00:57:07,760 --> 00:57:10,200
Speaker 7: like he's only costing the team two million dollars in

1209
00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:13,800
Speaker 7: accordance to the competitive balance tax. It's still going to

1210
00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:17,200
Speaker 7: be about forty six million dollars to that. So basically

1211
00:57:17,280 --> 00:57:19,840
Speaker 7: what's happening is he's costing the team forty six million

1212
00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:23,600
Speaker 7: dollars still and basically donating forty four loaning them forty

1213
00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:25,600
Speaker 7: four million dollars and saying I'm only going to take

1214
00:57:25,600 --> 00:57:28,520
Speaker 7: two million dollars go spend that money elsewhere. So I

1215
00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:31,120
Speaker 7: think it speaks volumes to the person that show Hey

1216
00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:34,760
Speaker 7: is how badly he wants to win, that that's really

1217
00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:37,640
Speaker 7: all this is. And I think a lot of people

1218
00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:42,880
Speaker 7: struggle to understand to understand just how much show Hey

1219
00:57:43,080 --> 00:57:45,640
Speaker 7: is all about winning. I think people say that, but

1220
00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:47,720
Speaker 7: at the end of the day, what it comes down to,

1221
00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:50,200
Speaker 7: and I've talked to a lot of players in the

1222
00:57:50,320 --> 00:57:53,000
Speaker 7: league and around the league and ask him about this,

1223
00:57:53,200 --> 00:57:56,680
Speaker 7: and I think what it comes down to is players

1224
00:57:56,800 --> 00:57:59,320
Speaker 7: just aren't willing to defer all of their money. He's

1225
00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:02,440
Speaker 7: deferring ninety seven percent of his contracts. That's just not

1226
00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:06,160
Speaker 7: something that's humans not just sports like people aren't willing

1227
00:58:06,280 --> 00:58:08,200
Speaker 7: to say no, I'm not going to take my money now,

1228
00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:11,000
Speaker 7: I'll take it later. Let's do our job better. And

1229
00:58:11,160 --> 00:58:13,160
Speaker 7: that's what he's doing. And that is a testament to

1230
00:58:13,240 --> 00:58:15,240
Speaker 7: him as a person. He wants to win. And that's it.

1231
00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:18,600
Speaker 4: You just mentioned that he said spend the money elsewhere.

1232
00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:20,840
Speaker 4: Alex said he's making it so the Dodgers can have

1233
00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:23,440
Speaker 4: their cake and eat it too. So on top of

1234
00:58:23,520 --> 00:58:26,960
Speaker 4: already signing show Hey, the Dodgers have signed Tyler Glass

1235
00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:29,000
Speaker 4: now to a five year, one hundred and thirty six

1236
00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:30,520
Speaker 4: million dollar contract.

1237
00:58:31,400 --> 00:58:33,240
Speaker 2: What do you think that does for the Dodgers?

1238
00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:35,520
Speaker 4: Because I agree that one player doesn't move the needle,

1239
00:58:35,600 --> 00:58:37,360
Speaker 4: but now we got two players.

1240
00:58:37,720 --> 00:58:39,160
Speaker 2: How much of the needle is moving here for.

1241
00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:42,000
Speaker 7: The Dodgers, it is, it is moving. For sure. They

1242
00:58:42,080 --> 00:58:44,960
Speaker 7: needed pitching. Show Head doesn't help with the pitching next year,

1243
00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:48,400
Speaker 7: so it was it was vital to get him, It

1244
00:58:48,480 --> 00:58:52,480
Speaker 7: really was. So Now, I mean, look, Lance Lenz started

1245
00:58:52,520 --> 00:58:54,959
Speaker 7: a playoff game for the Dodgers last year. You can't

1246
00:58:55,040 --> 00:58:58,560
Speaker 7: have that. Please, are going to get a gap. So

1247
00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:02,360
Speaker 7: going to get a guy Tyler Glass now and locking

1248
00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:05,800
Speaker 7: him up for the next five years is huge for them.

1249
00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:09,480
Speaker 7: And obviously there's some health concerns with him. He hasn't

1250
00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:11,600
Speaker 7: thrown over one hundred and twenty innings in his career.

1251
00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:14,560
Speaker 7: But if you can, you know the Dodgers that I

1252
00:59:14,680 --> 00:59:16,720
Speaker 7: promise you they're going to be, They're going to end

1253
00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:18,840
Speaker 7: up in the playoffs. So as long as he's healthy

1254
00:59:18,920 --> 00:59:22,040
Speaker 7: by that point and ready to go, then then it's

1255
00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:23,280
Speaker 7: going to be a huge pickup.

1256
00:59:23,480 --> 00:59:25,439
Speaker 2: And I just read that he has no deferred money

1257
00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:28,560
Speaker 2: in his contract. No, he's not a shoo TONI that's

1258
00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:31,360
Speaker 2: just crazy home lie. So okay, I'm going to put

1259
00:59:31,360 --> 00:59:31,840
Speaker 2: you on the spot.

1260
00:59:31,880 --> 00:59:35,360
Speaker 3: Then you said it's over the the course of ten years,

1261
00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:37,800
Speaker 3: right that they need to win multiple World Series. Who

1262
00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:39,400
Speaker 3: is your World Series favorite.

1263
00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:41,480
Speaker 7: Right now for this next year?

1264
00:59:41,640 --> 00:59:41,840
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1265
00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:47,600
Speaker 7: I mean I would say, Man, it's largely going to

1266
00:59:47,640 --> 00:59:51,240
Speaker 7: depend on if whoever gets Yamamoto. And I say that

1267
00:59:51,360 --> 00:59:53,040
Speaker 7: because I think it's either going to be the Dodgers

1268
00:59:53,080 --> 00:59:55,560
Speaker 7: of the Yankees. I honestly think if the Yankees can

1269
00:59:55,600 --> 00:59:58,480
Speaker 7: get Yamamoto that they would be world serious favorites. I'm

1270
00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:01,160
Speaker 7: higher on them that I think a lot of people are. Yeah,

1271
01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:03,440
Speaker 7: because of the Sodo deal. I think if the Dodgers

1272
01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:06,440
Speaker 7: can get him, their absolutely World Series favorites. So I

1273
01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:08,280
Speaker 7: think that's going to be a big swing point for me.

1274
01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:10,640
Speaker 7: But right now, in the American League or in the

1275
01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:13,800
Speaker 7: National League, I still love the Braves. So right now

1276
01:00:13,840 --> 01:00:15,640
Speaker 7: I think the Braves and Dodgers are neck and neck,

1277
01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:18,000
Speaker 7: And if the Dodgers can get Yamamoto, I'd say their

1278
01:00:18,040 --> 01:00:18,880
Speaker 7: World serious favorites.

1279
01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:20,720
Speaker 3: I mean, can we just imagine, I mean the world

1280
01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:25,560
Speaker 3: needs the Dodgers and the Yankees. Yes, the World Series

1281
01:00:25,960 --> 01:00:28,240
Speaker 3: like that would just be that would be so great

1282
01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:29,840
Speaker 3: for baseball that way everybody.

1283
01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:33,880
Speaker 2: Maybe not for you, but who else has won the offseason?

1284
01:00:35,200 --> 01:00:39,240
Speaker 7: You know, I've been really pleased to see what the

1285
01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:41,720
Speaker 7: Kansas City Royals have done. And I know that's not

1286
01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:44,200
Speaker 7: the most exciting answer, So I can give you a

1287
01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:49,640
Speaker 7: couple but one. Hearing that question, look, you want to say,

1288
01:00:49,840 --> 01:00:52,400
Speaker 7: like this is the thing for me with baseball. You

1289
01:00:52,520 --> 01:00:55,440
Speaker 7: have you have the Dodgers doing what they're doing, and

1290
01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:57,800
Speaker 7: that's great, and I think I think the game of

1291
01:00:57,880 --> 01:00:59,760
Speaker 7: baseball is better for the team that they're going to

1292
01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:02,280
Speaker 7: put this year. And then you have a team like

1293
01:01:02,320 --> 01:01:05,280
Speaker 7: the Royals that has signed more free agents this offseason

1294
01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:09,080
Speaker 7: than any other team. So you know, I talk about

1295
01:01:09,120 --> 01:01:10,960
Speaker 7: that and I say how cool I think that is,

1296
01:01:11,040 --> 01:01:13,480
Speaker 7: and the response is, well, they're still not going to

1297
01:01:13,520 --> 01:01:15,760
Speaker 7: win the division. They're still not going to they still

1298
01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:18,280
Speaker 7: can't beat the Dodgers, And I think people are missing

1299
01:01:18,360 --> 01:01:20,840
Speaker 7: the point there. The whole point is that you have

1300
01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:25,040
Speaker 7: this team that's underperforming and they're finally going out and

1301
01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:29,040
Speaker 7: buying in and getting players and making their team better,

1302
01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:32,520
Speaker 7: and you have an ownership that's that's actually wanting to compete,

1303
01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:35,400
Speaker 7: and I think that's what the game needs, is not.

1304
01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:37,640
Speaker 7: You know, it's great when the Dodgers are going to

1305
01:01:37,640 --> 01:01:39,160
Speaker 7: be good, it's great when the Yankees are good, but

1306
01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:41,560
Speaker 7: having a team like the Royals actually go out and

1307
01:01:41,680 --> 01:01:45,000
Speaker 7: spend one hundred million dollars on players this offseason and

1308
01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:46,840
Speaker 7: field a team that's going to be competitive. So I

1309
01:01:46,880 --> 01:01:48,880
Speaker 7: think the Royals have done really well. I think the

1310
01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:52,600
Speaker 7: Yankees have vastly improved solely because of getting Won Soto.

1311
01:01:52,720 --> 01:01:54,320
Speaker 7: I think he's one of the best hitters in baseball,

1312
01:01:54,760 --> 01:01:57,080
Speaker 7: and I think the Yankees have improved big time for sure.

1313
01:01:57,200 --> 01:02:02,320
Speaker 7: So I'll go Yankees, Yankees and Royals far and obviously, obviously.

1314
01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:07,440
Speaker 2: Ben, we all know that you love shown I do.

1315
01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:08,320
Speaker 13: We all know that.

1316
01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:10,240
Speaker 2: You tell the world and we all know that.

1317
01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:13,680
Speaker 4: I just said to Alex like a couple of minutes ago,

1318
01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:16,080
Speaker 4: I was like, I don't think he loves anyone.

1319
01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:20,680
Speaker 2: Anyone else more than he than he loves brother. And

1320
01:02:20,720 --> 01:02:22,400
Speaker 2: then I said, I don't know. I think show Hay

1321
01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:24,240
Speaker 2: still is a top boy family.

1322
01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:24,520
Speaker 7: Right.

1323
01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:28,600
Speaker 2: You ain't gonna lie, Ben, you would just tell us

1324
01:02:28,680 --> 01:02:29,480
Speaker 2: that show Hey.

1325
01:02:29,400 --> 01:02:34,760
Speaker 7: Is number one, no thicker than anything else. I'll always

1326
01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:35,479
Speaker 7: go with Justin.

1327
01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:42,560
Speaker 2: But it's really close here the butt before we let

1328
01:02:42,640 --> 01:02:45,400
Speaker 2: you go. Your Cowboys are the game of the week.

1329
01:02:45,520 --> 01:02:48,480
Speaker 3: Just so everyone knows. Ben's a big Cowboys fan. They're

1330
01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:51,760
Speaker 3: looking good. They're on one heck of a streak. Are

1331
01:02:51,840 --> 01:02:53,240
Speaker 3: they beating the Bills tomorrow?

1332
01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:56,560
Speaker 8: You know, my gut says no.

1333
01:02:57,120 --> 01:02:59,200
Speaker 7: My gut says no. I think the Bills are going

1334
01:02:59,280 --> 01:03:01,080
Speaker 7: to win. I really do. I haven't been wrong.

1335
01:03:01,480 --> 01:03:05,640
Speaker 3: I'm heartbroken for you. Yeah, Ben, thank you so much

1336

Speaker 3: for joining us. I'll see you Monday's all zoom tomorrow.

1338
01:03:11,160 --> 01:03:13,760
Speaker 3: Thanks All right, Now, let's check in with Kevin Ware

1339
01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:14,680
Speaker 3: and see what's trending.

1340
01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:18,160
Speaker 10: Full slate of NFL at least a triple header of

1341
01:03:18,280 --> 01:03:21,600
Speaker 10: NFL action today. We've had some great plays made throughout

1342
01:03:21,680 --> 01:03:23,560
Speaker 10: the day. We got a good game going on so

1343
01:03:23,760 --> 01:03:27,280
Speaker 10: far in Indianapolis, as the Steelers leading the Colts.

1344
01:03:27,360 --> 01:03:28,320
Speaker 9: It's thirteen to seven.

1345
01:03:28,360 --> 01:03:31,720
Speaker 10: They got about nine minutes to go before halftime, as

1346
01:03:31,800 --> 01:03:34,000
Speaker 10: the Colts getting the ball back now after a picking

1347
01:03:34,080 --> 01:03:37,200
Speaker 10: off Mitch Drubisky. So the Colts now with the ball

1348
01:03:37,320 --> 01:03:39,280
Speaker 10: in their own territory, trying to see if they can

1349
01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:42,800
Speaker 10: attire or possibly take the lead here in the second quarter.

1350
01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:45,440
Speaker 10: The first game though, and absolutely thrilling a fair It

1351
01:03:45,520 --> 01:03:48,600
Speaker 10: started off really boring a batch of a backup quarterbacks

1352
01:03:48,680 --> 01:03:51,600
Speaker 10: Nick Bullens against Jake Browning, but it really heated up

1353
01:03:51,680 --> 01:03:54,600
Speaker 10: in the second half of The Bengals would tie the

1354
01:03:54,680 --> 01:03:57,120
Speaker 10: game up with less than thirty nine seconds ago, Jake

1355
01:03:57,200 --> 01:04:00,360
Speaker 10: Browning hitting t Higgins at the one yard lining fight

1356
01:04:00,440 --> 01:04:02,400
Speaker 10: his way and stretches arm across the goal line for

1357
01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:06,640
Speaker 10: the touchdown. And then in overtime, the Vikings on the

1358
01:04:06,720 --> 01:04:09,520
Speaker 10: verge of field goal range and possibly getting the win,

1359
01:04:09,800 --> 01:04:12,840
Speaker 10: stopped on fourth and short on a tush push play,

1360
01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:15,520
Speaker 10: so the Bengals defense standing tall. They would then go

1361
01:04:15,680 --> 01:04:17,680
Speaker 10: march down the field and get the field goal and

1362
01:04:17,800 --> 01:04:20,760
Speaker 10: the win to win the game twenty seven to twenty four.

1363
01:04:20,760 --> 01:04:22,520
Speaker 10: They moved to eight and six on the season, and

1364
01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:26,720
Speaker 10: believe it or not, without Joe Burrow, the Cincinnati Bengals

1365
01:04:26,840 --> 01:04:30,240
Speaker 10: now find themselves in the number six spot in the

1366
01:04:30,400 --> 01:04:35,320
Speaker 10: AFC playoff standings, although the Pittsburgh Steelers with a chance

1367
01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:36,880
Speaker 10: to also get to eight and six if they can

1368
01:04:36,920 --> 01:04:39,440
Speaker 10: beat the Colts today. Same thing with the Colts, So

1369
01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:42,280
Speaker 10: a very tight playoff race going on right now in

1370
01:04:42,400 --> 01:04:45,640
Speaker 10: this Steelers Colts game can very well change the standings.

1371
01:04:46,240 --> 01:04:48,360
Speaker 10: Once this game is over, the last game coming up

1372
01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:52,320
Speaker 10: later to the night will be the Broncos and Detroit Lions.

1373
01:04:52,440 --> 01:04:55,520
Speaker 10: College football action, it's bullseason already, believe it or not.

1375

01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:04,840
Speaker 10: the second half, beating Howard thirty to twenty six at

01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:20,800
Speaker 10: Bowl in Orlando. They're playing in the monsoon, and the

1383
01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:25,120
Speaker 10: score reflects that six ' three Appalachian State leads Miami

1384
01:05:25,120 --> 01:05:27,960
Speaker 10: and a couple of notable scores in college basketball, including

1385
01:05:28,080 --> 01:05:31,000
Speaker 10: number six Baylors suffering their first loss at the hands

1386
01:05:31,040 --> 01:05:33,080
Speaker 10: of Michigan State, who there were just four and five

1387
01:05:33,240 --> 01:05:35,200
Speaker 10: entering the game, but you wouldn't know that by the

1388
01:05:35,400 --> 01:05:38,360
Speaker 10: result of the game eighty eight sixty four, as the

1389

1435
01:07:31,560 --> 01:07:34,560
Speaker 2: It makes me, you know, feel good sometimes on the inside.

1436
01:07:36,160 --> 01:07:36,680
Speaker 2: So weird.

1437
01:07:36,760 --> 01:07:37,080
Speaker 11: All right.

1438
01:07:38,040 --> 01:07:40,720
Speaker 3: We've talked a lot about this game, alrighty today it

1439
01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:44,520
Speaker 3: is the game of the week, Cowboys at the Bills,

1440
01:07:44,880 --> 01:07:47,880
Speaker 3: And this game has it all. We got superstars, we

1441
01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:51,600
Speaker 3: have playoff implications, we have MVP conversations.

1442
01:07:52,280 --> 01:07:53,520
Speaker 2: Which team.

1443
01:07:55,040 --> 01:07:57,680
Speaker 3: Is this one more important for is the big question.

1444
01:07:57,680 --> 01:08:00,400
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say, Let's start with the Bills. Okay, they

1445
01:08:00,440 --> 01:08:02,240
Speaker 3: do not have a lot of room for error anymore.

1446
01:08:02,760 --> 01:08:05,680
Speaker 3: They are seven and six, second in the AFC East

1447
01:08:05,720 --> 01:08:09,560
Speaker 3: behind the Dolphins. They are currently outside of the playoff picture.

1448
01:08:09,640 --> 01:08:11,320
Speaker 2: Looking in. They are in eleventh.

1449
01:08:10,960 --> 01:08:15,240
Speaker 3: Place in a six team tie that are all seven

1450
01:08:15,320 --> 01:08:19,320
Speaker 3: and six, and they got to play to get in.

1451
01:08:19,439 --> 01:08:24,479
Speaker 3: They control their own destiny right when to get in.

1452
01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:25,920
Speaker 2: Even if they went three.

1453
01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:30,160
Speaker 3: Of their last four, they could be in play, maybe

1454
01:08:30,240 --> 01:08:32,400
Speaker 3: even for the divisions or final games against the Dolphins.

1455
01:08:32,439 --> 01:08:36,679
Speaker 3: Their remaining schedule bills remaining schedule. They got versus the Cowboys,

1456
01:08:37,880 --> 01:08:41,880
Speaker 3: at Chargers, oh good, they should get versus Patriots they

1457
01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:45,000
Speaker 3: should get and then at Dolphins. Yeah, that's gonna be

1458
01:08:45,040 --> 01:08:50,759
Speaker 3: a tough fee. So they've got They are literally playing

1459
01:08:50,840 --> 01:08:55,160
Speaker 3: for their playoff hopes starting tomorrow. Now let's look at

1460
01:08:55,160 --> 01:08:58,240
Speaker 3: the Cowboys side of things. Okay, they've been on a roll,

1461
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:01,760
Speaker 3: five game winning stream. Huge win against the Eagles last

1462
01:09:01,800 --> 01:09:03,839
Speaker 3: weekend bump them up to the top of the division.

1463
01:09:05,040 --> 01:09:08,200
Speaker 3: But they haven't been great against teams with a winning record.

1464
01:09:08,240 --> 01:09:10,719
Speaker 3: They're one and two against teams with the winning record,

1465
01:09:10,840 --> 01:09:13,960
Speaker 3: nine to one against teams with a losing record, So

1466
01:09:14,080 --> 01:09:16,599
Speaker 3: they're winning the games that they are supposed to win.

1467
01:09:19,720 --> 01:09:24,040
Speaker 3: Dak's having a career season career high and completion percentage

1468
01:09:24,280 --> 01:09:27,599
Speaker 3: career high in passer rating. He is in the MVP

1469
01:09:27,880 --> 01:09:30,639
Speaker 3: conversation a lot of people have him as the favorite.

1470
01:09:31,120 --> 01:09:33,680
Speaker 3: I think if he can win in Buffalo against a

1471
01:09:33,800 --> 01:09:39,240
Speaker 3: great quarterback, he's gonna win over all the doubters. It

1472
01:09:39,280 --> 01:09:44,120
Speaker 3: would be just such a definition of a statement win

1473
01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:47,080
Speaker 3: for Dak if he can pull that off.

1474
01:09:47,520 --> 01:09:51,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, obviously, that's I think you said it exactly right.

1475
01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:54,880
Speaker 4: What is on the line for the Cowboys.

1476
01:09:55,360 --> 01:09:57,439
Speaker 2: It's actually the MVP for Dak.

1477
01:09:57,520 --> 01:09:59,920
Speaker 4: It is, that's what because the Cowboys are, like you said,

1478
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:02,240
Speaker 4: they're good and they're gonna be in the playoffs unless

1479
01:10:02,240 --> 01:10:03,000
Speaker 4: I don't know, if something.

1480
01:10:03,120 --> 01:10:06,200
Speaker 3: Say like the remaining schedule. They're at Bills than at Dolphins,

1481
01:10:06,479 --> 01:10:09,960
Speaker 3: tough versus Lions at Commanders, so they can they can first,

1482
01:10:10,080 --> 01:10:11,559
Speaker 3: they should be able to win two of those.

1483
01:10:11,600 --> 01:10:14,080
Speaker 4: They right, right, get it right. But that's what's on

1484
01:10:14,160 --> 01:10:17,040
Speaker 4: the line. It's Dak Prescott's MVP.

1485
01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:19,879
Speaker 3: He's got to perform.

1486
01:10:20,160 --> 01:10:22,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then for the Bills, it's the season. It's

1487
01:10:23,040 --> 01:10:26,559
Speaker 2: the season. But you know this isn't a bad thing.

1488
01:10:26,920 --> 01:10:29,800
Speaker 4: But Dak, to me, is the type of player that's me, me, me,

1489
01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:32,439
Speaker 4: me me, Like I think he's more worried about himself

1490
01:10:32,439 --> 01:10:35,640
Speaker 4: than he's about to His phone is a picture of

1491
01:10:35,720 --> 01:10:39,040
Speaker 4: himself with his jersey to motivate him.

1492
01:10:39,720 --> 01:10:42,479
Speaker 2: Now you're supposed to be no Dak talk.

1493
01:10:43,000 --> 01:10:44,960
Speaker 3: He seems like such a team guy and when you

1494
01:10:45,040 --> 01:10:47,559
Speaker 3: hear his teammates talk about him, they talk about how

1495
01:10:47,680 --> 01:10:50,439
Speaker 3: great of a person and a leader, and he could.

1496
01:10:51,600 --> 01:10:53,519
Speaker 2: I don't think it's a bad thing. I'm not saying

1497
01:10:53,520 --> 01:10:54,120
Speaker 2: it as a bad thing.

1498
01:10:54,200 --> 01:10:55,880
Speaker 4: I really I am not and he could be all

1499
01:10:55,920 --> 01:10:59,479
Speaker 4: those things. I just think it fuels him more because

1500
01:10:59,720 --> 01:11:00,519
Speaker 4: he's the MVP.

1501
01:11:00,680 --> 01:11:01,200
Speaker 2: Is on Jalen.

1502
01:11:01,479 --> 01:11:04,519
Speaker 3: Jalen Hurts' background on his phone was like them losing

1503
01:11:04,640 --> 01:11:09,080
Speaker 3: in the Super bowls falling motivating of him with this jersey,

1504
01:11:09,280 --> 01:11:10,960
Speaker 3: But we don't know what game that's from. Maybe again

1505
01:11:11,000 --> 01:11:13,080
Speaker 3: it was a bad loss and he's reminding himself like

1506
01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:15,320
Speaker 3: you never want to be where again, because we know

1507
01:11:15,479 --> 01:11:17,560
Speaker 3: for Jalen Hurts it was a loss. We win in

1508
01:11:17,560 --> 01:11:19,599
Speaker 3: the Super Bowl. You see confetti following in the different

1509
01:11:19,960 --> 01:11:20,840
Speaker 3: the different color.

1510
01:11:20,800 --> 01:11:22,760
Speaker 2: And again this is not a bad thing. It's what

1511
01:11:22,920 --> 01:11:23,479
Speaker 2: fuels him.

1512
01:11:23,880 --> 01:11:27,360
Speaker 4: So I actually think he is going to put up

1513
01:11:27,400 --> 01:11:33,400
Speaker 4: the numbers that he needs to for his MVP, you know, conversation.

1514
01:11:34,120 --> 01:11:36,439
Speaker 2: I just don't know if the Cowboys will win. I

1515
01:11:36,520 --> 01:11:38,120
Speaker 2: think Dak is going to have a great game.

1516
01:11:38,240 --> 01:11:42,200
Speaker 3: I think the Cowboys have more to prove tomorrow, don't

1517
01:11:42,200 --> 01:11:42,679
Speaker 3: they always?

1518
01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:46,200
Speaker 2: Poor Cowboys? I mean like they always have to prove yeah.

1519
01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:50,519
Speaker 3: Right when they have I think it's what like four

1520
01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:54,880
Speaker 3: playoff wins of the last twenty three years, Like they

1521
01:11:55,000 --> 01:11:58,200
Speaker 3: keep being this great regular season team where we think

1522
01:11:58,320 --> 01:12:01,439
Speaker 3: they are, and then they have just he's devastating.

1523
01:12:01,320 --> 01:12:04,160
Speaker 4: Fallen short of the expectation for many. So it's it's

1524
01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:06,880
Speaker 4: but that's the Bills right now, right prove me wrong,

1525
01:12:08,120 --> 01:12:12,000
Speaker 4: Like Bills also, Bills are having short of expectations.

1526
01:12:12,080 --> 01:12:14,439
Speaker 3: I mean, Josh Allen is a majority of that.

1527
01:12:14,840 --> 01:12:17,240
Speaker 2: No, Josh Allen, he is a man in that team.

1528
01:12:17,320 --> 01:12:18,040
Speaker 2: He is that team.

1529
01:12:18,080 --> 01:12:21,000
Speaker 3: He is willing this team to win. He is so

1530
01:12:21,320 --> 01:12:25,559
Speaker 3: incredibly talented, and I think they have. We were talking

1531
01:12:25,600 --> 01:12:27,040
Speaker 3: to Cynthia earlier and I asked her, like, what do

1532
01:12:27,120 --> 01:12:31,519
Speaker 3: the numbers say? She is the analytics expert for NFL Network,

1533
01:12:31,600 --> 01:12:33,719
Speaker 3: and she says she has to keep running the numbers,

1534
01:12:33,760 --> 01:12:35,320
Speaker 3: and she keeps going back and forth because there's a

1535
01:12:35,320 --> 01:12:37,720
Speaker 3: lot of injuries kind of on both sides, and it's

1536
01:12:37,800 --> 01:12:40,200
Speaker 3: coming up almost as a coin flip. I think the

1537
01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:42,439
Speaker 3: numbers are coming up almost as a coin flip. So

1538
01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:47,120
Speaker 3: this is going to be it's in Buffalo, which it's outside,

1539
01:12:47,560 --> 01:12:50,679
Speaker 3: which I think is in the Bill's favor a slight

1540
01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:54,760
Speaker 3: one hundred percent favor. Well, I'm gonna save my pick

1541
01:12:54,840 --> 01:12:57,640
Speaker 3: for the next segment. But I think that the Cowboys.

1542
01:12:58,560 --> 01:13:01,960
Speaker 3: I think Dak has a lot more to prove, and

1543
01:13:02,040 --> 01:13:05,439
Speaker 3: the Cowboys have a lot more to prove because they need. Yes,

1544
01:13:05,520 --> 01:13:08,639
Speaker 3: they got a big win against the Eagles, Yeah, last weekend.

1545
01:13:08,800 --> 01:13:09,160
Speaker 13: That was.

1546
01:13:11,160 --> 01:13:13,559
Speaker 3: Like their first big win against a winning team, one

1547
01:13:13,560 --> 01:13:15,679
Speaker 3: of the best teams, and it was a dominant wine.

1548
01:13:15,800 --> 01:13:18,200
Speaker 4: That was another big part of it. I state that exactly.

1549
01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:21,599
Speaker 4: So you know, like if if the cow I think

1550
01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:24,120
Speaker 4: it's going to be a very close game. But you know,

1551
01:13:24,280 --> 01:13:26,280
Speaker 4: like if the Cowboys just make it a close game

1552
01:13:26,360 --> 01:13:28,400
Speaker 4: and Dak has a good game, He's still going to

1553
01:13:28,439 --> 01:13:33,880
Speaker 4: be in the MVP conversation. Even if they lose. I

1554
01:13:33,960 --> 01:13:37,800
Speaker 4: think the Bills cannot lose. They lose, no, no, no,

1555
01:13:37,920 --> 01:13:41,600
Speaker 4: they're playing for their their playoff hopes. Just to remind you,

1556
01:13:41,680 --> 01:13:43,680
Speaker 4: they are currently in eleventh place.

1557
01:13:44,479 --> 01:13:48,320
Speaker 3: In a sixteen tie. They're all seven and six. It's

1558
01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:51,040
Speaker 3: a mess, Like they have to they have to win

1559
01:13:52,120 --> 01:13:52,640
Speaker 3: to get in.

1560
01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:54,320
Speaker 2: A chaotic mess.

1561
01:13:54,439 --> 01:13:57,559
Speaker 3: There's still a lot. But again, like the Dolphins haven't

1562
01:13:57,680 --> 01:14:00,519
Speaker 3: looked that great either, Like is Hill going to be healthy?

1563
01:14:00,720 --> 01:14:02,880
Speaker 3: Like down the stretch, Like there's a lot of question

1564
01:14:02,960 --> 01:14:04,120
Speaker 3: marks with the team right above them.

1565
01:14:04,040 --> 01:14:05,800
Speaker 2: And they know that that's the whole thing.

1566
01:14:05,880 --> 01:14:09,000
Speaker 4: It's like, we have an actual chance when you know,

1567
01:14:09,080 --> 01:14:11,280
Speaker 4: a couple of weeks ago, it looked like Man and.

1568
01:14:11,320 --> 01:14:13,759
Speaker 3: Bills are playing Dolphins last regular game of the season

1569
01:14:14,240 --> 01:14:14,879
Speaker 3: in Miami.

1570
01:14:15,120 --> 01:14:18,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, there is. There's just a lot for both teams.

1571
01:14:18,760 --> 01:14:19,280
Speaker 2: There's a lot.

1572
01:14:20,280 --> 01:14:23,479
Speaker 3: Cowboys play the Dolphins next weekend, so I mean they

1573
01:14:23,600 --> 01:14:25,400
Speaker 3: have back the Dolphins have back.

1574
01:14:25,280 --> 01:14:28,280
Speaker 2: To back tough games, tough games. Yeah, no, the Dolphins

1575
01:14:28,360 --> 01:14:28,559
Speaker 2: have a.

1576
01:14:30,600 --> 01:14:32,080
Speaker 4: Tough end of long strike.

1577
01:14:32,160 --> 01:14:33,120
Speaker 3: Let's yeah.

1578
01:14:33,439 --> 01:14:34,600
Speaker 2: But we're talking about.

1579
01:14:34,800 --> 01:14:37,280
Speaker 4: It's just it's all connected though, it's all connected.

1580
01:14:37,360 --> 01:14:41,200
Speaker 2: It's all connected, magical.

1581
01:14:41,560 --> 01:14:43,559
Speaker 3: Okay, we're gonna take one more break here, but when

1582
01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:46,439
Speaker 3: we come back, Monsey and I, we're gonna go through.

1583
01:14:46,600 --> 01:14:49,080
Speaker 3: We're gonna give you our NFL picks. You're listening to

1584
01:14:49,160 --> 01:14:50,000
Speaker 3: Fox Sports Radio.

1585
01:14:50,080 --> 01:14:50,559
Speaker 14: That's right.

1586
01:14:52,600 --> 01:14:52,840
Speaker 11: Bench.

1587
01:14:52,880 --> 01:14:54,880
Speaker 14: You floats the left side, the moss, moss the ten.

1588
01:14:55,080 --> 01:14:57,280
Speaker 14: He's at the five angling for the pylon. We gotta

1589
01:14:57,280 --> 01:14:59,519
Speaker 14: flag at the end of the play and it's no

1590
01:14:59,720 --> 01:15:02,920
Speaker 14: touch down. Moss is down for the time being. He's

1591
01:15:02,960 --> 01:15:05,720
Speaker 14: also shaken up and it is ruled a touchdown very

1592
01:15:05,840 --> 01:15:07,519
Speaker 14: very late by the far side.

1593
01:15:07,640 --> 01:15:10,280
Speaker 2: Judge, you just heard Colts Radio network.

1594
01:15:10,360 --> 01:15:12,360
Speaker 4: They did get in the end zone, they scored, and

1595
01:15:12,439 --> 01:15:14,880
Speaker 4: they had a chance right now Alex to score again,

1596
01:15:15,280 --> 01:15:18,000
Speaker 4: weren't able to convert. So the Steelers are still up

1597
01:15:18,080 --> 01:15:20,639
Speaker 4: thirteen to seven. But there's three and a half minutes

1598
01:15:20,680 --> 01:15:24,439
Speaker 4: left in the second quarter, so plenty of game for

1599
01:15:25,200 --> 01:15:27,679
Speaker 4: a team. Both are seven and six, like they both

1600
01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:28,519
Speaker 4: need this win.

1601
01:15:28,640 --> 01:15:31,519
Speaker 3: Yes, they do so many that this week, you know,

1602
01:15:32,200 --> 01:15:35,400
Speaker 3: playing for the playoffs. They are playing for the playoffs.

1603
01:15:35,439 --> 01:15:38,680
Speaker 4: Seriously, what if as crazy as the season has been,

1604
01:15:38,920 --> 01:15:43,160
Speaker 4: with you know, seventy six new quarterbacks starting six, I.

1605
01:15:43,160 --> 01:15:46,120
Speaker 2: Don't know, I think it was like fifty have it

1606
01:15:46,200 --> 01:15:46,639
Speaker 2: written down.

1607
01:15:46,760 --> 01:15:48,960
Speaker 3: It's too high of a number, close close to like

1608
01:15:49,040 --> 01:15:49,479
Speaker 3: fifty six.

1609
01:15:49,600 --> 01:15:51,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, so yeah, yeah, seventy six fifty six same thing.

1610
01:15:52,320 --> 01:15:55,040
Speaker 4: Despite that, there have been some really like fun games,

1611
01:15:55,120 --> 01:15:57,519
Speaker 4: you know, despite all that, Oh yeah, because it's been

1612
01:15:57,640 --> 01:15:59,320
Speaker 4: so tight and close like the AFC.

1613
01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:00,639
Speaker 2: It's crazy.

1614
01:16:00,720 --> 01:16:04,840
Speaker 3: I mean, Danny DeVito, dude, dude, I.

1615
01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:05,439

Speaker 4: I want to go to a family dinner with the

1617
01:16:10,320 --> 01:16:14,520
Speaker 4: Divito's and his agent and his age agent at the tailgates,

1618
01:16:14,680 --> 01:16:15,880
Speaker 4: they're like having the best time.

01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:33,599
Speaker 15: and as someone whose best recipe is vodka Penne.

Speaker 13: you went two and two last week in Monty.

1651
01:17:38,320 --> 01:17:39,559
Speaker 2: That's so funny.

1652
01:17:41,880 --> 01:17:44,519
Speaker 13: She's trying to divert the attention from Monty going four

1653
01:17:44,560 --> 01:17:46,840
Speaker 13: and oh that's right.

1654
01:17:48,040 --> 01:17:50,679
Speaker 2: I don't think I went for it all yeah, wow,

1655
01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:52,240
Speaker 2: good job Monsra. All right.

1656
01:17:52,600 --> 01:17:57,479
Speaker 13: And then our guest host Carmen, Yeah, I kept her

1657
01:17:57,520 --> 01:17:59,280
Speaker 13: records too, went on she went too and two as well.

1658
01:17:59,360 --> 01:18:00,640
Speaker 3: All right, Oh, good for her.

1659
01:18:00,880 --> 01:18:03,519
Speaker 13: Your season totals, Alex, you're at twenty and sixteen a months,

1660
01:18:03,600 --> 01:18:05,400
Speaker 13: you're at thirty five and seventeen.

1661
01:18:05,720 --> 01:18:08,559
Speaker 2: That's rights a beat down. Let's came to this week.

1662
01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:10,559
Speaker 3: We have the Cowboys taking on the Bills.

1663
01:18:10,600 --> 01:18:12,360
Speaker 13: The Bills are at home and are favored by a

1664
01:18:12,439 --> 01:18:13,120
Speaker 13: point and a half.

1665
01:18:13,640 --> 01:18:16,000
Speaker 3: Alex, who you got in this one? We have spent

1666
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:18,479
Speaker 3: so much time talking about this game. We talked to

1667
01:18:18,520 --> 01:18:22,599
Speaker 3: Cynthia Freelan, who's the analytics expert for NFL Network. She said,

1668
01:18:24,120 --> 01:18:26,360
Speaker 3: it is like almost a coin flip. They're really in

1669
01:18:26,479 --> 01:18:29,200
Speaker 3: these two teams. We just talked about who has more

1670
01:18:29,240 --> 01:18:33,360
Speaker 3: to prove. I think Dak and the Cowboys have more

1671
01:18:33,640 --> 01:18:36,120
Speaker 3: to prove. I think the Bills are playing. They are

1672
01:18:36,200 --> 01:18:40,320
Speaker 3: literally playing for their playoff hopes. It's Sunday night in Buffalo.

1673
01:18:41,080 --> 01:18:43,240
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with the Bills because they have their

1674
01:18:43,240 --> 01:18:45,920
Speaker 3: playoff hopes on the line, and I think Josh Allen

1675
01:18:46,840 --> 01:18:48,800
Speaker 3: is going to do what needs to be done and

1676
01:18:48,880 --> 01:18:49,599
Speaker 3: get this big win.

1677
01:18:49,760 --> 01:18:49,920
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1678
01:18:49,920 --> 01:18:52,400
Speaker 4: I hope he does so that my fantasy team survives

1679
01:18:52,439 --> 01:18:55,240
Speaker 4: because Alex, I had the Chargers defense and dick Er

1680
01:18:55,320 --> 01:18:55,719
Speaker 4: the kicker.

1681
01:18:55,960 --> 01:18:58,479
Speaker 2: So I'm at minus right now. Yeah, okay, So I

1682
01:18:58,720 --> 01:19:02,280
Speaker 2: hope you're right, and it's I agree, it's so close, right,

1683
01:19:02,360 --> 01:19:02,599
Speaker 2: I mean.

1684
01:19:02,680 --> 01:19:05,720
Speaker 4: We also spoke to Ben Verlander, who's a Cowboys fan,

1685
01:19:05,920 --> 01:19:08,040
Speaker 4: and he said his gut is the Bills, but the

1686
01:19:08,160 --> 01:19:10,080
Speaker 4: slight edge that I'm gonna give the Bills is being

1687
01:19:10,160 --> 01:19:13,639
Speaker 4: at home, and so that's why I'm taking the Bills.

1688
01:19:13,680 --> 01:19:15,080
Speaker 2: And I hope it's a shootout.

1689
01:19:15,360 --> 01:19:19,719
Speaker 3: Yeah thirty please America's Game of the Week on Fox.

1690
01:19:19,880 --> 01:19:22,200
Speaker 13: Let's go get away for that, all right. The Lions

1691
01:19:22,240 --> 01:19:25,439
Speaker 13: are hosting the Broncos. The Lions are favored by four

1692
01:19:25,520 --> 01:19:27,639
Speaker 13: and a half. Monsign you got this one.

1693
01:19:28,120 --> 01:19:31,439
Speaker 2: I don't like this match up.

1694
01:19:31,880 --> 01:19:36,400
Speaker 4: The Detroit has been struggling a little bit here and there,

1695
01:19:37,080 --> 01:19:40,120
Speaker 4: Broncos are filling themselves.

1696
01:19:40,439 --> 01:19:41,400
Speaker 2: I am going.

1697
01:19:43,360 --> 01:19:47,439
Speaker 4: I'm gonna take the Lions. I'm going to take the Lions.

1698
01:19:48,400 --> 01:19:54,200
Speaker 4: Uncomfortably taking the Lions. I am uncomfortably taking the Broncos.

1699
01:19:56,120 --> 01:19:56,240
Speaker 5: Uh.

1700
01:19:56,760 --> 01:19:58,080
Speaker 2: You know, Lions are at home.
