1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Points stage station, and you at home of the Houston Texas.

2
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:08,879
Speaker 1: Houston's Spots leader Spoints Radio six ten. Here's the snap

3
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:12,000
Speaker 1: looking tips them all, timing for the pylot that he's

4
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:17,320
Speaker 1: got it, Razzle Tasle touchdown, the houstains and the Texans

5
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:21,000
Speaker 1: go in front. There is no off season for your

6
00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: Houston Texans. Game day is every day. We had a

7
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:26,520
Speaker 1: lot of energy and we brought a lot of spark

8
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:31,600
Speaker 1: for this organization. Five nights a week, they hits keep

9
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,880
Speaker 1: on coming out on the Texas say they have it

10
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 1: and they do. No, it's Texans, All Exans. Oh yes,

11
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 1: it is, Hello Texans, and we welcome you into the show.

12
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:50,280
Speaker 1: As Johnny, I'm feeling it. John Harris is with us.

13
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 1: I'm Mark Vanderber, the voice of your Texans. Let's get

14
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 1: going here tonight. I am feeling it. Today was I

15
00:00:58,400 --> 00:00:59,959
Speaker 1: don't want to say the first day, but I think

16
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: it really was, Johnny, the first day where I was thinking,

17
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: this is gonna happen, This is gonna happen, and I

18
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,040
Speaker 1: don't know what it's gonna be like, but let's go.

19
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:12,319
Speaker 1: Because I started to make a lot of arrangements today

20
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 1: for our broadcasts during training camp and other than the

21
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: start date. But other than that, you know, I got

22
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 1: a lot of arrangements and the clarity yesterday those stories

23
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 1: all right, it's still clear as mud as the saying

24
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: might go. As far as we did these preseason games

25
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,400
Speaker 1: really get canceled? Was that just an offer from the owners?

26
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 1: Is that really gonna happen? We don't know. But you know,

27
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 1: if you if you read the tea leaves here, it

28
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 1: seems like that's the case. You just heard McLean and

29
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 1: that promo say, I think they will play that game

30
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 1: against the Chiefs for sure. We'll take it from there. Look,

31
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: if they do that, we're often running let's go baby,

32
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 1: And I'm feeling it. I'm feeling the excitement. I think

33
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: everybody will come along with me here as these days

34
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 1: progress and you get more information about about training camp

35
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: and what's really gonna happen schedule wise. Yeah, absolutely, I mean,

36
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: are you ready to go fifty four straight minutes? Again?

37
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: We are? We are? We are we doing that tonight? No, no,

38
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: no problems. You know me, you know I'll do it.

39
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,360
Speaker 1: I know, but you know, we had the excitement kind

40
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 1: of flowing through It's yesterday with that, Yeah, you know,

41
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 1: it's funny you say that. I mean that was kind

42
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: of the way that I felt yesterday. Mark was um

43
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 1: And part of that was because i'd been over the

44
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 1: stadium getting tested. So I've been over there and I

45
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 1: had actually seen a couple of players in line, like

46
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: there's Kean crossing it was Greg Manson. I'm like, holy crap, Wow,

47
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 1: all right, okay, let's let's do this. And then when

48
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,799
Speaker 1: inside saw the different things, uh inside down on the

49
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: service level, so it's yeah, it's it's starting to feel real.

50
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 1: And and and and you know, I was on tech

51
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: SAgs and Cold Station today and doing my weekly hit

52
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: and and Gabe asked me kind of the same question,

53
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 1: you getting ready for training camp? And I said, you know,

54
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: really I hadn't. I mean kind of holding back in

55
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 1: some sense, like holding back my excitement because you and

56
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,799
Speaker 1: I and I we've talked about we marked time at

57
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: this time of year in particular too. Okay, we're down

58
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: to this many days. Okay, in four days, they report

59
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: in eight, in seven days, they do this, and then

60
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: they do this and we mark time with that with

61
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:20,080
Speaker 1: training camp, and that's when everything sort of just stops

62
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:24,359
Speaker 1: and for us, really, uh and then the football season starts. UM,

63
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: and I really hadn't felt that until yesterday. UM, and

64
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: then seeing as we were going through the show, seeing

65
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 1: what Ian Raport was tweeting and Tom Plasara was tweeting

66
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 1: about how the NFL and the NFLPA were getting yeses,

67
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: they were agreeing on things. I'm not sure how much

68
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: I like the zero preseason games mark that one for

69
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: a personal reason or just as far as getting the

70
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 1: team ready for the campaign. Meg both you know, Drew

71
00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: and I talked about Honor in the Lab podcast. We

72
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: can check out He's Texas dot Com. Good iTunes, check

73
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: out in lap, give us a rating, go check it out.

74
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: We talked about that today. It wasn't so much for us.

75
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 1: We you know, drews like, look, we'll be at the games,

76
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: We'll be covering the games. I like Drew being down

77
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: the sidelines with me during um, you know, during TV

78
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 1: games is always cool to kind of bounce ideas off

79
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,359
Speaker 1: one another when we're down there for those preseason games.

80
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: But you think about the people for those two games

81
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 1: at Energy Stadium, Uh, you know the SMG workers, you

82
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,280
Speaker 1: know all the security people, um, that are gonna lose

83
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 1: to you know game checks if you will, And it's

84
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 1: it's those people that I sort of feel for. Look,

85
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 1: the players are gonna be gonna be fine. They're they're

86
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna find a way. Whether coaches scale down

87
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 1: the playbook a little bit, scale back a little bit

88
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,039
Speaker 1: um to give guys an opportunity to play faster um

89
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:48,840
Speaker 1: with a little bit less on their on their brain

90
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 1: as they're out there, coaches and the players will make

91
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: the adjustments and they'll all be fine. I'm not I'm

92
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 1: not worried too much about that. Yeah, the play might

93
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: be ablettle ragged early on, but you know, what, are

94
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,719
Speaker 1: you really gonna care um early on in the season

95
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 1: if the plays a little ragged, No, because football's back

96
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,919
Speaker 1: and we'll be back and you'll be happy to see it.

97
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 1: So yeah, you might have people will be so critical anyway,

98
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 1: but go on, Oh who cares um, no matter what?

99
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 1: So yeah, exactly. I mean, if it's fifty four fifty one,

100
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 1: it'd be like there's no defense. If it's seven to six,

101
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: it'll be like nobody could score. The defenses are too good.

102
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 1: I mean, you know that's it's gonna go with the territory.

103
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 1: But there's gonna be a lot of people just happy

104
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 1: to see football back. And yeah, it's gonna be a

105
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 1: little ragged. He'll look. The college football season's kind of

106
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: that way. In the first couple of weeks, it can

107
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 1: be a little ragged. The tackling is a little bit

108
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: out there. I'm like, whoa man? But they find a

109
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 1: groove and you find and you find your fit, and

110
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 1: I think, um, you'll you'll get there. But really, the

111
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 1: last couple of days is when I started to feel like, Okay,

112
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 1: let's let's rock and roll. Let's let's let's think about

113
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: doing this. Let's get this done now. When training camp

114
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 1: actually begins, what we technically would call training camp, when

115
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 1: that actually begins might be upboard eight and may not

116
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 1: be August or sorry, July twenty eighth, but we at

117
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,280
Speaker 1: least feel like it's on the horizon a little bit,

118
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 1: and that makes me feel pretty good. Mark Well, the

119
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 1: players will be in the building, and that's the key, right,

120
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:16,039
Speaker 1: that's the key. You'll see some coverage some things happening

121
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: as they'll condense that offseason program in a one or

122
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: two week period, possibly a little bit more, but they

123
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 1: won't get out there for what we know as training

124
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 1: camp practice for probably a couple of weeks at least,

125
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: and yesterday was reported eighteen days now. I was doing

126
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: a bunch of stuff before we got on the air,

127
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,480
Speaker 1: so I didn't see Pellicero. I think he's the first

128
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: one reporting it that. Yeah, the NFLPA did agree to

129
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: no preseason games, so, like you say, yes, it is

130
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,840
Speaker 1: along the way. Roster is expected to be at eighty

131
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:52,360
Speaker 1: that's yet to be confirmed, but usually ninety. I think

132
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: the Texans without looking at what eighty five, Johnny, is that,

133
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,239
Speaker 1: I think that's right. I had eighty four. Eighty five

134
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 1: all right, and I want to say they talked about

135
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,599
Speaker 1: adding five or six gals, will add guys to the

136
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 1: roster to get to ninety. But I think that's I

137
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 1: think that's the number. So UM, just kind of you know,

138
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: bouncing through Twitter as you said that, I just saw

139
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 1: a tweet from Jonathan Jones who works for CBS Sports,

140
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 1: and he talked about um. He tweeted bummer that around

141
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: three hundred twenty guys will see their NFL dreams extinguished

142
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 1: just before it gets started. That and that math would

143
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 1: be ten guys from each team that would have eighty

144
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 1: man rosters. So yeah, so that that would that would

145
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: make sense, that that's guys that's coming, guys who were

146
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 1: long shots to make it anyway. Yeah, but also some

147
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 1: people show up to camp and maybe, look, you have

148
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 1: to have your roster where it is. But maybe some

149
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: guys are gonna be banged up and get on IR

150
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: or whatever, and you know, maybe they're they'll be signed

151
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 1: during the season because maybe the numbers will be just

152
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 1: so tough that eventually they'll catch on somewhere else. They'll

153
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 1: get tryouts, they'll get opportunities. I don't think the dreams

154
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: are extinguished. It does make it difficult. Tryouts are gonna

155
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 1: be very tough, flying guys around the country to try

156
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: out for teams like they do every Tuesday. That's gonna

157
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 1: be weird. But yeah, it is sad about the preseason.

158
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: You have to do it. You have to do to

159
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 1: try to keep people safe. Now, PFT, what was the

160
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 1: report here? I guess it's on the NFLPA website. How

161
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 1: many positives there have been in the NFL so far? Now,

162
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: this does include everybody's tested positive so far and gotten

163
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: over like von Miller, right, because ninety five NFL players

164
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 1: have tested positive. That's not today, that's throughout entire in

165
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 1: the entire Corona period, which is continuing as we speak.

166
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,599
Speaker 1: So ninety five. I don't know what to make of

167
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,959
Speaker 1: that number. It sounds like a lot, but look, you're

168
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,559
Speaker 1: gonna have more. The vets haven't even really reported yet.

169
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 1: Some of them have you mentioned being online with a couple,

170
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 1: but we'll see how that goes as they come in.

171
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: The good news, if there is such a thing related

172
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 1: to positives, is that hopefully they're not that ill, if

173
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: at all, and you have many weeks to get over

174
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 1: this before you actually have to start doing anything football wise, right,

175
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 1: and that includes practice. I mean, you could stay home

176
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 1: for three weeks from this point forward, get back and

177
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 1: have plenty of time to really get ready for the season.

178
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,319
Speaker 1: So there's a lot to consider there with these early positives. Now,

179
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,439
Speaker 1: you're not going into a bubble what we saw with

180
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 1: the NBA. Nobody tested positive today, yesterday, whenever the last

181
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: tests were right. That was huge for them. But they're

182
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 1: in a bubble. The NFL players are not in a bubble.

183
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna think that they'll try to bubble up now.

184
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 1: I want to be transparent here, Johnny. I'm going to

185
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 1: reveal that you're in Tier two and I am not.

186
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,719
Speaker 1: And the reason, folks, why Johnny and I are in

187
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 1: different tiers are like, what's a tier? The only important

188
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: thing you need to know here is that Johnny needs

189
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: to be able to watch practice in the bubble, and

190
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 1: you've got to be in tier two in the bubble.

191
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,880
Speaker 1: And they're limited numbers of Tier two slots out there.

192
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 1: These are gold. I could have grabbed one, but if

193
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 1: you and I both had one, that means one less

194
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 1: video guy. We need those video guys in there. And

195
00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,559
Speaker 1: I'm thinking they're not going to practice in the bubble

196
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 1: of ton. They will sometimes, but I'll see plenty of

197
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,959
Speaker 1: practice out there at the Houston Methodist Training Center. We'll

198
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 1: just rock and roll like that. And uh, and we

199
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,959
Speaker 1: got to do what's right for the team, their team,

200
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:13,439
Speaker 1: our team, the whole team, the whole organization. So you've

201
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: been tested a lot so far. Yeah, I think you're

202
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,319
Speaker 1: working on four days in a row or something tomorrow.

203
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 1: What is it like? I mean, I don't want you

204
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 1: to give away state secrets here, but do you have

205
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:27,839
Speaker 1: any nostrils left? If we've tested several days in a row,

206
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: I will test every day for the rest of the

207
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 1: year if we if we have a football season to play.

208
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 1: If they said to me, look, John, oh you'll you'll

209
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 1: be willing to do that. Yes, yes, if they if

210
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 1: they said to me, look, you have to test every

211
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 1: single day at the same time all year long, and

212
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 1: that will guarantee that we have a football season, I

213
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 1: would do it because it's to me, it's not even

214
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 1: uncomfortable anymore. I don't even have Today. I did it.

215
00:10:58,160 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 1: The day was the third day to RONDI the fourth

216
00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 1: day in a road that we've been tested. Today, I

217
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,559
Speaker 1: didn't even feel the swab really go in my nose.

218
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 1: I mean I know it did, but I didn't even

219
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 1: feel it like my eyes and water up or anything.

220
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 1: You just get you getting used to it. I mean

221
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:14,560
Speaker 1: I'm getting used to it. I guess. They took blood

222
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 1: on Sunday. That was optional. They said, do you want

223
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,839
Speaker 1: to do this, and I said, sure, I give blood

224
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 1: as much as I possibly can. That started back when

225
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 1: I was a senior in high school and my my

226
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 1: buddy at testicular cancer, and so we all went to

227
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 1: the blood drive that they had. We went and gave blood,

228
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: and we tried and I tried to do as much

229
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,559
Speaker 1: as possible. So I have no problem have my blood

230
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 1: tested any of that. So yes, okay, let's do it.

231
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: So that's the antibodies test, and then we've done the

232
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,320
Speaker 1: PCR test the last couple of days, and then last

233
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 1: night we had a COVID nineteen meeting where we went

234
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 1: over some of the things from the NFL that kind

235
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:53,320
Speaker 1: of gave us protocol. If you know somebody at test positive,

236
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 1: if you're around somebody test positive, here's what you should do.

237
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 1: Here's the plan. I mean, it's all it's all laid

238
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 1: out by Jeff Kaplan, doctor Munts, everybody. Uh take, I

239
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:07,560
Speaker 1: mean it. I just I just feel real comfortable with

240
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 1: the testing. I feel real comfortable with the plan that

241
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,080
Speaker 1: we have. I feel really comfortable with the people we

242
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 1: have executing a plan. Uh. And as Texans fans, you

243
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 1: should feel feel good about that. You know that the

244
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,200
Speaker 1: team is gonna feel that way. The players are gonna

245
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: feel that way, the coaches are gonna feel that way.

246
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 1: Um that they're gonna feel comfortable like, hey, there there's

247
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: a plan here. There has been. Like I said yesterday

248
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 1: in the building, it's it's awesome. I mean I went

249
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: through four or five doors, and I didn't use my

250
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 1: hands once. I'm just like looking up at at little cameras.

251
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 1: The doors are opening. They knew who I was, which

252
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 1: is probably not a great thing. Um it was it.

253
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 1: I'll be curious to see how it continues. But I know,

254
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 1: just reading about the testing, about two straight weeks, every

255
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 1: single day testing and then peeling back a little bit

256
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 1: if the positive, if the positives are less than five percent,

257
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 1: So you know, hopefully that's some something that we can

258
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 1: get to with the Texans. But I think the biggest

259
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 1: thing mark to me, and and this's just kind of

260
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: kind of just thinking through everything, and I think the

261
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 1: teams that do well this year, in this particular year,

262
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 1: are the ones that are the most adaptable, that ones

263
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,079
Speaker 1: that are the most flexible, and the ones that can

264
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 1: make those adaptations and changes the most rapid. If they

265
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: can do that from day to day, week to week,

266
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 1: month to month, those teams are the ones that are

267
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:40,439
Speaker 1: going to end up being ultra ultra successful. And the

268
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 1: maybe the biggest thing beyond that is the team that

269
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 1: adheres basically to a philosophy of home stadium and that's it, right.

270
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 1: I think those are the teams that are going to

271
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 1: end up having the most success. If you get knuckleheads.

272
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 1: They are like, I'm fine, man, I'm fine. I'm gonna

273
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 1: go over to the Spectrum tomorrow night and I'm gonna

274
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: go hang with you know, twenty or twenty five of

275
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 1: my pals, or or just twenty twenty five different people

276
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 1: not wear a mask, you know, just feeling kind of

277
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 1: loose and fancy free, and all of a sudden boom

278
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 1: that guy tests And look, I know that you can

279
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 1: get You can get a positive um in in in

280
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 1: a lot of different situations. Some people get positive and

281
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 1: they're like, who but why risk it? Yeah, exact exactly

282
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 1: with you. It's gonna be a bad look after what

283
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 1: the players tweeted on Sunday. By and large, it's gonna

284
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 1: be a bad look if you're in a high risk situation. Right,

285
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: it's just not gonna look good U after you've made

286
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: a big deal about that. Look, I get it. They're young.

287
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 1: It's it's everyone's like, Okay, you'll suck it up for

288
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 1: a season. You know, when you're our age, of course,

289
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 1: you know when you're their age, it's a little more difficult.

290
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 1: But they gotta be pros and they gotta do it.

291
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 1: They gotta find a way to do it. This is

292
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 1: a unique situation. Uh. If look, if I was talking

293
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: to the players, I'd say, you've got four or five six,

294
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: it's maybe more years if you're lucky to play professional football. Unfortunately,

295
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to play through a year where you

296
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 1: have very few or no fans or whatever this turns

297
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 1: out to be. But it's still a year playing professional football.

298
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 1: You're just gonna have to, you know, deal with it

299
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: and make the most of it. Make the most of it,

300
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 1: because you're right, there's a golden opportunity out there. There

301
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 1: is a Lombardi Trophy to be one. It might as

302
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 1: well be yours. It might as well be you the

303
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: team that does it. Oh, put me on the box

304
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,320

400
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,160
Speaker 1: City September tenth. We'll see about the fan participation part

401
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 1: of it, Johnny, because a letter went out to the

402
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:31,439
Speaker 1: season ticket members yesterday saying that hey, if you opted out,

403
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,639
Speaker 1: you opted out. In fact, those who opted out I

404
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 1: don't think got any letter, but those who wanted to

405
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 1: participate if there's any fan participation possible this year, we're

406
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:45,360
Speaker 1: given the lowdown that masks will be required. There will

407
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 1: be about fourteen thousand capacity, right, so twenty percent of

408
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:52,720
Speaker 1: the total. Because he can't socially distance fifty percent. Everyone's

409
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: talking about the governor in fifty percent. You can't socially

410
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 1: distance fifty percent. That's every other seat, that's every row,

411
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 1: and that's impossible to really socially distanced that way. So, uh,

412
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,040
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to dial it down at twenty percent

413
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: max um. Should they have fans there, and they wanted

414
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 1: to get the take of the season ticket members. But

415
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,399
Speaker 1: you're seeing this around the league, this kind of number.

416
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: This is where we're heading now. The teams that play

417
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,440
Speaker 1: in Jersey, both New York teams who play in Jersey,

418
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:24,160
Speaker 1: the Jets and the Giants. I don't know how that happened. Well,

419
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 1: have you ever been there? It's just so close you

420
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: can throw a rocket hit Manhattan, basically right across the

421
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 1: Hudson River. But it is, and it isn't. It's just

422
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 1: a different mentality, man, It is it like you cross

423
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,639
Speaker 1: that river. They even make fun of it in the

424
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:42,639
Speaker 1: musical Hamilton. You watched Hamilton. They're talking about legal in Jersey.

425
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 1: You know, back in the day. How about they row

426
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,960
Speaker 1: across the Hudson River to go have a duel? Right, yeah, exactly,

427
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 1: you've you know the Hudson River. That's no joke. You

428
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 1: can't just roll across there like it's nothing. I mean,

429
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 1: that's a that would take me all day. I think

430
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 1: to row across the Hudson River and there's a big

431
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 1: current too. You start rolling across the Hudson River. He

432
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,440
Speaker 1: ended up in Newfoundland. I don't know how that works. Well,

433
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if you. I don't know why I

434
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 1: saw this, but I've told you my whole YouTube plan.

435
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 1: I just literally get on YouTube and I just kind

436
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 1: of put on what's on. While I was on, I

437
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:16,880
Speaker 1: called that the YouTube roulette. That's what that is. You yes,

438
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 1: And what's got a select for me? Next? Well, I

439
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 1: sometimes do the selecting. In this case, I just picked

440
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,399
Speaker 1: a subscriber, so I picked NFL Films. So this video

441
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 1: popped up of Peanut Tilman. You remember Peanut Tilman. Peanut

442
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 1: Tilman decided that to raise money for a charity that

443
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:40,240
Speaker 1: was really really close to him. He and another guy

444
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,960
Speaker 1: and the guy was I can't remember what charity it was,

445
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 1: but it was another guy, and they decided to row

446
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 1: from I'm trying to remember where it was. It was

447
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 1: in Michigan. But they were gonna go sixty five miles

448
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: in twenty hours to Chicago. Whoa rowing And not only that,

449
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:12,160
Speaker 1: they built the boat that they were going in, Wait,

450
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: sixty five miles in twenty twenty hours. Now it ended

451
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 1: up taking him, I think twenty five hours. It took

452
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,879
Speaker 1: him a little bit longer. Um. And the guy that

453
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:26,040
Speaker 1: Peanut went with, I think was at least accomplished rowing wise,

454
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 1: like he Kin. He had rowed before, so he kind

455
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 1: of knew Peanut had to learn the whole thing. He said.

456
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,399
Speaker 1: It was just amazing because they had camera's full him

457
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,879
Speaker 1: the whole time. They had interviews with him, and he

458
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 1: just talked about how he was absolutely gassed at about

459
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 1: the sixteen hour mark, and it was nuts. Mark, it

460
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 1: was crazy to watch the body of water. Was this

461
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:49,639
Speaker 1: on on Lake Michigan? Yeah, I believe it was like Michigan. Yeah,

462
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 1: because by the time they got to Chicago, they were

463
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,640
Speaker 1: about four miles out from Chicago. I mean you could

464
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 1: see you could see the skyline. I mean you could

465
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 1: see it in the distance and you can hear them talking,

466
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 1: this is getting really child this is really really choppy.

467
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,120
Speaker 1: And then it took them. It took them. I can't

468
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 1: remember how much it was, but it was to go

469
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 1: a half mile. It took them forever. And so they

470
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 1: were just gas because they were fighting that choppy water.

471
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: But sixty five miles and they rode that whole thing.

472
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 1: It was just it was just amazing. So they were

473
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 1: not going to Chicago for a duel like Burne Hamilton

474
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,160
Speaker 1: were because they just that's in New Jersey. That's where

475
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 1: you went for a duel. That's what New Jersey will

476
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,879
Speaker 1: forever be, the home of the sopranos and where you

477
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 1: go for duels. Yes, yes, And I remember James Gandolfini

478
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 1: being at a couple of the Texans games at the

479
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:38,439
Speaker 1: New York Jets. By the way, one thing on the

480
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 1: rowing a lot, not to get too esoteric, but back

481
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 1: in Michigan, one of the annual events I covered was

482
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,960
Speaker 1: the Assable River Canoe Marathon, which is one hundred and

483
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,400
Speaker 1: twenty miles and they do it in about eighteen hours.

484
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:53,120
Speaker 1: Eighteen hours now whever it's flat it's a river, yea,

485
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 1: and they're flying. But and these guys are studs. And

486
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 1: you know, the first prize was something like five grand,

487
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 1: which you know, bad there in the nineties. But anyway,

488
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 1: it was it was a weird thing to cover it.

489
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:05,879
Speaker 1: And we'd stay up all night. We did an eighteen

490
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,680
Speaker 1: hour virtual Broadway. Well I shouldn't say virtual, but we

491
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 1: played some tunes. It was a music stage. We'd play

492
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:12,679
Speaker 1: a few songs. I'd be like, they're narrow at this

493
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:16,439
Speaker 1: portal and they're crossing over this bridge, and I'm dying

494
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,400
Speaker 1: of exhaustion. Okay, let's get to the next thing here.

495
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 1: What about a couple of Texans reportedly signing today. The

496
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 1: team hasn't released anything, but reports are out about Ross

497
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 1: Blacklock and about Isaiah culture. And that's a rap for

498
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 1: the rookie class, right the whole class is under contract

499
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 1: right now, rock and roll. Let's I mean, these are

500
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,400
Speaker 1: things that are all tying together. Let's go. Let's play

501
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 1: some football. Yeah, And getting the rookies in the building

502
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 1: I could imagine was a big deal just to be

503
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 1: I mean, this is the first time these rookies have

504
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,399
Speaker 1: seen this building. Now, maybe Ross has been in that

505
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:54,679
Speaker 1: building because he's from Missouri City with Dalkins and then TCU.

506
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 1: He may have been in the building at some point. Actually,

507
00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 1: I think he did. Ross Ross worked out before COVID

508
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,919
Speaker 1: nineteen restrictions hit. He worked out for the Texans in

509
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 1: early March, so so he had an opportunity. So he's

510
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,439
Speaker 1: been in the building before. But the rest of him,

511
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,200
Speaker 1: I would imagine seeing it for the first time had

512
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,200
Speaker 1: to be pretty interesting. Drew and I did today and

513
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 1: end the Lab, and I thought it was a great

514
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:20,439
Speaker 1: topic from Drew. He came up the curiosity you have

515
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 1: for four different players, a rookie, a second year guy,

516
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 1: a new player that's a veteran, and then an old standby,

517
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,680
Speaker 1: not not stressing the old, but just an old standby.

518
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 1: And Isaiah Coulter was the one for me that was

519
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,439
Speaker 1: a rookie Mark I'm really curious to see what this

520
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,640
Speaker 1: guy can do. And all the other guys. I saw

521
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 1: Charlie Heck at the Senior Bowl for a while. I

522
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:42,360
Speaker 1: saw John Reid play a number of times at PENNS

523
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:46,639
Speaker 1: Dana TV, Ross Blacklock, I've been following for at least

524
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 1: three years, so you know those are all guys that

525
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 1: I that knew about and had watched John Grenard. I

526
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:55,439
Speaker 1: had studied backwards and forwards and met out at the

527
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 1: Senior Bowl. But Isaiah Coulter was one of the five

528
00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,399
Speaker 1: draft picks that I'd seem plenty on tape. But you

529
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,199
Speaker 1: never saw a game with him. You never saw, you know,

530
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 1: on TV. I mean Rhode Island was not really I'm

531
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 1: gonna be seen on natural TV or gonna be seen

532
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 1: on regional TV here. So I'm really curious to see

533
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 1: what he looks like. What does he look like on

534
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,119
Speaker 1: the hoof? As they say in the scouting world, I'm

535
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,920
Speaker 1: really curious as to how he fits in because he's

536
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 1: different from all the other receivers and the receiver group.

537
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 1: If you think about it, most of the guys this

538
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 1: receiver group kind of top out at six foot six one.

539
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 1: Isaiah Holter's sixty three six four. I think, yeah, bigger guy,

540
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 1: taller guy guy. They can do a little bit of everything.

541
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 1: But he's also got the speed too. I mean he's

542
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,600
Speaker 1: got four four five speed at six four two h five.

543
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 1: So I'm curious to see how he adapts, how quickly

544
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 1: he adapts, But just to see his athleticism. He was

545
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 1: the guy that I'm from a rookie standpoint most curious

546
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 1: to see in large part because we really didn't see

547
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 1: the guy, really didn't other than seeing him on film

548
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 1: a few times. So I'm curious to see what he brings,

549
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 1: you know. PFT tweeted out a picture when they announced

550
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 1: his signing, which was not a formal announcement, it's a report,

551
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 1: but anyway, And he's got that sweet Uri helmet, Johnny

552
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 1: that I know. I know you love the Rhode Island ramps,

553
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,480
Speaker 1: just kidding, but he's got that sweet RII helmet on

554
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,440
Speaker 1: and his group. I mean, you look at the log

555
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,920
Speaker 1: jam in front of him, but you never know. I mean, look,

556
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 1: maybe there's a deal, maybe there's an injury, maybe there's

557
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: more than one no please no, But whatever the case is,

558
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 1: when you're just looking at one individual's bid to try

559
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 1: to make the team and make an impression, you just

560
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 1: never know what's gonna factor into that. Because as we

561
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:39,959
Speaker 1: get closer to camp, you know, a couple of landmark

562
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 1: things happened to me. I could feel them in my body.

563
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 1: The angst that arrives with camp is one of oh please,

564
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 1: who's gonna get hurt? I just I hate the injuries.

565
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,920
Speaker 1: And then you see every training camp a certain position

566
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:55,920
Speaker 1: group seems to get attacked, like you have this flare

567
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: up in the tight end group or the offensive line

568
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 1: or the dB you know, and lose guys in a

569
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:04,600
Speaker 1: certain group more than other groups, and that starts to

570
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:08,200
Speaker 1: hurt you. And then the other the other landmark thing

571
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 1: that happens. The benchmark thing that happens is twenty minutes

572
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 1: before kickoff and the opener. I feel like, oh boy,

573
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:19,160
Speaker 1: here we go. Now we're playing for keeps. Here it comes, here,

574
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 1: it comes. We're about to go on the record for

575
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 1: the coming season. And there's just such an excitement, such

576
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: a feeling about that. And you can feel it in

577
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 1: the air now. And I know there's so many serious

578
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 1: things going out in the world, but look, this is

579
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,320
Speaker 1: a football show. We want to have some football fun,

580
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 1: all right. So Culter Blacklock under contract, let's go. I

581
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 1: think this is going to be one of the more

582
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,160
Speaker 1: interesting You know, we talked about Culter and you know

583
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:47,440
Speaker 1: you're curious about him. You say you followed Blacklock plenty,

584
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:51,280
Speaker 1: But this is a guy who I'm not gonna say.

585
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,760
Speaker 1: It's a must get great rookie production out of anybody necessarily,

586
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 1: you don't want to have to be in that position

587
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 1: when you're a team that's been winning your division consistently.

588
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 1: But it would be nice quote a Hamilton's song again,

589
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:08,920
Speaker 1: it would be nice to get Blacklock to break some havoc,

590
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 1: you know that kind of thing. I love that I

591
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,840
Speaker 1: can actually I love that I can actually know I

592
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 1: know exactly what you're referring to. I've actually been listening

593
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 1: to the Hamilton soundtrack too, so i've been It's it's phenomenal.

594
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 1: That's what I recommend. You know, people who have seen

595
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 1: it on Disney Plus they're like, I don't, I don't know. Listen,

596
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 1: you gotta put on the soundtrack for you now that

597
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:29,720
Speaker 1: you've seen it. Put it. Put that away. Yes, lute

598
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 1: on the soundtrack when you're doing the dishes or whatever

599
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 1: you're doing, and do it twice, even just the first

600
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:39,680
Speaker 1: seven songs. I'd be surprised if you did that twice.

601
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 1: If you're not like, yeah, I really want to hear

602
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:45,280
Speaker 1: that again, it becomes very habit for me, no doubt. Okay,

603
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 1: to your point, mark, what position group can we ill afford? Look,

604
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 1: any position group you can ill afford injuries, But what

605
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: position group like you said, a rash of injuries hits

606
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 1: this particular group. What is worst case scenario? What group

607
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:08,480
Speaker 1: not not Deshaun, Let's not quarters, please do not quarterbacks.

608
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 1: What group can we ill afford to have a rash

609
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 1: of injuries in as we get ready for the season.

610
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 1: I think I have a pretty good idea on one. Well,

611
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 1: look the old line. We like it, We really like it. Yep,

612
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:26,120
Speaker 1: they get thin pretty quickly with some injuries, right, I

613
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,040
Speaker 1: mean internally, Okay, you got Man's, you got Sennil on

614
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 1: the roster still, right, So that's nice. Um and I

615
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,640
Speaker 1: kind of joked about Charlie Heck in the past as

616
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 1: a as a rookie who you don't want to see

617
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 1: him because if you're seeing him, that means something's wrong

618
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 1: with Howard or Tunsil. Like, so please let's not see

619
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 1: Charlie Heck, you know, unless he's the sixth man or

620
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 1: something like that. But I'll secondary, I'll go secondary. How

621
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:54,479
Speaker 1: about you depth on the D line, linebackers, you have

622
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 1: some guys secondary. Don't do this to me, Do not

623
00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 1: mess around. Yeah, I feel like there is a that

624
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 1: was that was the one I was thinking about, because

625
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 1: first of all, you've got to figure out who who's

626
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 1: gonna start opposite Justin Reid. So you got to figure

627
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,800
Speaker 1: that part of it out. So if you have this

628
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:16,920
Speaker 1: rash of injuries at safety with Michael Thomas, Jalen Watkins,

629
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:19,160
Speaker 1: Eric Murray, A J. Moore, if you have kind of

630
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,080
Speaker 1: a rash of injuries there, you kind of limit the

631
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 1: options of what you're getting a chance to look at

632
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 1: the play opposite Justin. Then I started thinking about corner

633
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 1: because the other player that I was curious about, a

634
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,719
Speaker 1: second year player I was curious about, is Lonnie Johnson.

635
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 1: Where does Lonnie kind of fit in in the secondary,

636
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,200
Speaker 1: Because you figure the starters are gonna end up being

637
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:41,800
Speaker 1: Bradley Ruby on one side, grunt Conny and the other

638
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:45,360
Speaker 1: the Ohio State University. You figure Vernon on the inside.

639
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:48,080
Speaker 1: So there's your three. John Reid will probably push Vernon

640
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 1: to play an the inside. I would imagine that's where

641
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 1: John's gonna start at least, is to kind of battle

642
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:57,320
Speaker 1: Vernon for time on the inside. And where's where's that?

643
00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 1: Where's that leave Lonnie? But here's the thing. If you

644
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:03,360
Speaker 1: have if if robi um, you know that hamstring gets

645
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 1: bulky on him, No, you think Okay, Well, Lonnie will

646
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:07,720
Speaker 1: step in corner, you get another guy banged up all

647
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 1: of a sudden, Man, where's your where's your depth at corner? Uh?

648
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 1: You know Philip Gaines stole on this roster, you know,

649
00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,319
Speaker 1: is that a guy that has to step up? Man? You,

650
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,879
Speaker 1: Conny and Robie I think are better together than people think.

651
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 1: Like those two guys, I think, you know, I think

652
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:26,279
Speaker 1: they're gonna be better in their second year both with

653
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:30,239
Speaker 1: the Texans. But you've got to maintain Lonnie Johnson's health.

654
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:32,960
Speaker 1: You've got to obviously maintain Connie and Robie's health. But man,

655
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,239
Speaker 1: you start getting a rash injuries back there, it's gonna

656
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:37,800
Speaker 1: be it's gonna be tough. Well, I think, really really tough.

657
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,359
Speaker 1: And you need a really good performance out of the

658
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 1: other safety not named justin Reid. Right, you need to

659
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 1: hurry about I mean, Michael, Tommy, whatever you need. You

660
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:50,960
Speaker 1: have to have production there and you want to talk

661
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 1: thin in a hurry. Safety is an area where that

662
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 1: might happen. You think Lonnie might someday be a safety.

663
00:34:56,880 --> 00:35:00,279
Speaker 1: I've said that all along. I've said along up, I

664
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:02,839
Speaker 1: don't know if that's gonna happen now, but you know

665
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 1: you hope it doesn't have to happen. Now, all right,

666
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,480
Speaker 1: let's play who's better for for a few more. Let's

667
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:11,239
Speaker 1: do it. Okay, let's um let's look north here to

668
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,839
Speaker 1: the DFW area for a moment, and I'm gonna ask

669
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 1: you who's better, Tom Landry or Jimmy Johnson. Who's better?

670
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 1: I wonder how they would answer this, the DFW people,

671
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,759
Speaker 1: the metro Plex people as we call it. Sometimes, what

672
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:29,400
Speaker 1: will Landry say? Landry knows the Metroplex pretty much. We

673
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:31,920
Speaker 1: would say I'm better because I started the franchise as

674
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,640
Speaker 1: an expansion team. If I've got to win, if I

675
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:38,239
Speaker 1: got to win one game, Mark, I think I want

676
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 1: Jimmy Johnson. I think I want Jimmy Johnson. Now, yeah,

677
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 1: I think with Jimmy. And I don't know how this

678
00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 1: was for for Tom, but I got the impression always

679
00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:55,040
Speaker 1: with Jimmy that yeah, been there, done that, It's time

680
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:58,520
Speaker 1: to move on. You know. It was like at Miami,

681
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,319
Speaker 1: he'd won the championships. Okay, what's the new challenge. Oh,

682
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 1: let me go see if I can build the Cowboys.

683
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,279
Speaker 1: Then he had won a bunch with the Cowboys, and

684
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 1: and I don't know if if being with Jerry for

685
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:10,759
Speaker 1: a significant period of time just ran him into the

686
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 1: ground or what. But I just always felt like with Jimmy,

687
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,840
Speaker 1: it was like, Okay, I did this. I did what

688
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:21,960
Speaker 1: I was supposed to. So what's challenge? He burns out right,

689
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,880
Speaker 1: It's it's clear he took the Dolphins job because he

690
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:28,040
Speaker 1: wanted to live there more than anything. He knew Marino

691
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 1: was on the way out. He had up for his

692
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,239
Speaker 1: last year. It's funny because I was talking to Seth

693
00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:35,320
Speaker 1: Painton and Sean Pendergast on Friday, and I was saying, Seth,

694
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:39,400
Speaker 1: you played in that game you retired Dan Marino seven

695
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 1: playoff loss at the hands of the Jaguars. Um So

696
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 1: I understand that Landry coached forever. Landry lost three NFC

697
00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:51,759
Speaker 1: Championship games in a row. Landry, you know Landry would

698
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:54,360
Speaker 1: lose Super Bowls. But I don't think there's any shame

699
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 1: in that. I don't think that makes you a worse coach.

700
00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 1: I mean it shows you something for getting there. You know,

701
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:02,600
Speaker 1: Danny White at quarterback Hoga Boom played the bulk of

702
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 1: one of those NFC Championship game losses. Right, I don't know.

703
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:09,319
Speaker 1: I love Landry. I really don't like the Cowboys at all.

704
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:13,080
Speaker 1: Big headline here. You guys know this well, but but

705
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:15,839
Speaker 1: you know, there's something about Landry. There's just something. If

706
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,280
Speaker 1: you love him or hate him, you want him around.

707
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 1: You want him in the league as the villain if

708
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:22,839
Speaker 1: you hate him, and you know the Fedora, the whole

709
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,000
Speaker 1: look of it. I love that stuff. How can yeah,

710
00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:28,440
Speaker 1: I like that. It's listen me saying Jimmy this. This

711
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:30,799
Speaker 1: is not easy because I think Tom Landry is one

712
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,919
Speaker 1: of the more underrated great coaches in the NFL because

713
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:37,320
Speaker 1: when we say comes up right, his name never comes

714
00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 1: up in those discussions. And I think that's a that's

715
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:43,799
Speaker 1: a shame because he was so and maybe it was

716
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:46,719
Speaker 1: the way that it ended in Dallas. Maybe people just

717
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:50,520
Speaker 1: don't I don't know. Maybe they don't give him enough

718
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,080
Speaker 1: credit for what happened in Dallas. But the fact that

719
00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:56,960
Speaker 1: he was unceremoniously bounced um to get Jimmy in there,

720
00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:58,839
Speaker 1: maybe people look at that and say, well, yeah, maybe

721
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 1: it wasn't that good. That's how Landry was exceptional. He

722
00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,480
Speaker 1: was an innovator, came up, you know, use the shotgun.

723
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:08,400
Speaker 1: You know, the things they did offensively were so innovative

724
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 1: at the time, but I just feel like, in a

725
00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:14,920
Speaker 1: one game situation, my backs against the wall, I think

726
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 1: Jimmy Johnson is gonna lead me to w I just

727
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:19,560
Speaker 1: wouldn't believe in if I'm a player, that's the guy

728
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:22,360
Speaker 1: that I would want coaching for me. Okay, two cities

729
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 1: we will visit this year. Who's better? What's better food

730
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:32,480
Speaker 1: in Nashville, food in Kansas City. So let's just go

731
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:36,200
Speaker 1: right to the barbecue here, different styles, but it's it's

732
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 1: about more than the barbecue. When you're talking Nashville, especially

733
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:42,160
Speaker 1: in the Kansas City, people are probably screaming right down

734
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 1: their cars like, well we got this and this and this.

735
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,080
Speaker 1: It's not just barbecue. But what do you think? Okay,

736
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 1: So here's how I would think of this. What would

737
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:57,239
Speaker 1: be a better long weekend to take Kansas City or

738
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:02,120
Speaker 1: nas Nashville? This Nashville. It's Nashville, and I think that

739
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:06,120
Speaker 1: Nashville because if it comes down to barbecue, first of all,

740
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:09,319
Speaker 1: you know, I can stay home and have the best

741
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:11,520
Speaker 1: barbecue on the face of the planet. I will say

742
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:15,400
Speaker 1: when we're going to Kansas City. Thought Jack Stack burnt

743
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:18,640
Speaker 1: in sandwich. You know, I'm all about it, no, no doubt.

744
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 1: But you gotta tell me, Okay, you gotta take one.

745
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:27,080
Speaker 1: You get one to Nashville because there's so much in Nashville,

746
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:30,440
Speaker 1: not only to see and to do, but the different

747
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:32,799
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously you want Nashville hot Chicken. We go

748
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 1: to the Southern. We love that place. Of course, I

749
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 1: hope my figure doesn't show it, but I love you

750
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:46,279
Speaker 1: could put just think of every Southern food imaginable you

751
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:47,759
Speaker 1: can put in front of me, and I'm gonna eat it.

752
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:50,399
Speaker 1: I might have to run more, but but I'm gonna

753
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 1: eat it. And I think I can get that Nashville.

754
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:56,239
Speaker 1: So I'm going to Nashville. Okay, Who's better as a

755
00:39:56,400 --> 00:40:03,440
Speaker 1: studio TV host historically? Let's go historically here, Bob Costas

756
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 1: or Brent Musburger. You are looking live a veteran the

757
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:11,560
Speaker 1: stadium in Philadelphia or Hi. Everybody. I would much rather

758
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,080
Speaker 1: be calling a baseball game. This sport is terrible. No,

759
00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:17,080
Speaker 1: he's not like that. Cost Us, but costUS did the

760
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:21,120
Speaker 1: NBC stuff for a long time with Sunday Night Football. Yeah,

761
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 1: he obviously did the NBC studio show back when they

762
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 1: had the AFC on NBC on Sunday afternoons right CBS

763
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:31,439
Speaker 1: at the NFC. This is back in the day where

764
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:34,399
Speaker 1: Madden and Summer all we're on CBS. What do you think.

765
00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:38,879
Speaker 1: I think Brent's the most versatile broadcaster now we've had,

766
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,879
Speaker 1: because in studio I thought he was fantastic. He did

767
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,880
Speaker 1: college football play by play in the eighties for CBS.

768
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:49,960
Speaker 1: He did a tournament nance took over for months Musburger

769
00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:53,560
Speaker 1: tournament broadcast. Yeah, I mean he did so much. I

770
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:56,839
Speaker 1: think Brent as a play by play man just love him.

771
00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 1: And then I thought there was a period where he's

772
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:02,200
Speaker 1: maybe losing his fastball, but man, he started seemingly getting

773
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:04,239
Speaker 1: it back. And now he's calling games for the Raiders.

774
00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,560
Speaker 1: By the way, somebody posted some pictures and I can't

775
00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:10,520
Speaker 1: remember who it was, but somebody posted some pictures from

776
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:14,440
Speaker 1: inside the new Raiders building and inside their new practice facility.

777
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:20,360
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Mark, it's gorgeous, gorgeous. I always felt

778
00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:26,399
Speaker 1: like costUS either lorded the fact that he seemingly knew

779
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:30,760
Speaker 1: more than you or he was indifferent to even being

780
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:33,880
Speaker 1: there at the time. And I don't I don't really

781
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:37,120
Speaker 1: care for that. I always feel like Brent would be

782
00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:39,440
Speaker 1: a guy that I might be able to as I'm

783
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:42,120
Speaker 1: watching the studio show in a break, he could come

784
00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:45,399
Speaker 1: over hang with me for a little bit and talk

785
00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:46,960
Speaker 1: about some of the things that just happened and hop

786
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,080
Speaker 1: right back on the air and be just as brilliant

787
00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:51,759
Speaker 1: as he was costUS. I would feel like he'd be

788
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:54,480
Speaker 1: indifferent to anything that was going on, and it is

789
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:56,880
Speaker 1: really just putting on a show, whereas Brent, Yes, putting

790
00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:59,839
Speaker 1: on a show and entertaining is definitely part of it.

791
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:03,839
Speaker 1: But I feel like you get Musburger's soul with what

792
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:08,240
Speaker 1: you're seeing. And that's why I would say, I would say, Brent, Okay,

793
00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,240
Speaker 1: coming up, I've got one more for you after the break,

794

Speaker 1: How is that gonna work? You know, you've got other

911
00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:25,440
Speaker 1: options outside, man, what are you gonna do? How are

912
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:28,239
Speaker 1: you gonna play this on the outside? And then JD

913
00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:31,600
Speaker 1: gets hurt and which just steps up and is an

914
00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:36,719
Speaker 1: absolute champ. And I remember I remember Rabel coaching him

915
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:40,360
Speaker 1: so hard, and there were days I remember twenty fourteen

916
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:43,319
Speaker 1: training camp er, I could just see Wit just kind

917
00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:46,399
Speaker 1: of kind of down, and then at some point it clicked. Man,

918
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:50,040
Speaker 1: it really really clicked in fourteen, It clicked again in fifteen,

919
00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:52,160
Speaker 1: and then from that point forward, he's just been fantastic

920
00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:55,239
Speaker 1: for this team. I mean, it's just been wonderful. I

921
00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:58,000
Speaker 1: remember the very first preseason game and made him making

922
00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:01,040
Speaker 1: a play at Carol lit up. Yeah, just taking it

923
00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:04,720
Speaker 1: from there. Okay, I asked you this better win Indy

924
00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:08,160
Speaker 1: after you got blown out by jackson by Jacksonville. Boy,

925
00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:12,080
Speaker 1: please no, not having in twenty seventeen blown out by

926
00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:14,799
Speaker 1: the Ravens last year. I just say Jacksonville going into

927
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:17,080
Speaker 1: the break, did I know you said Ravens the Ravens

928
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:19,120
Speaker 1: last year? You needed that one was a Thursday Night

929
00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:22,080
Speaker 1: or a win over the Chiefs, or the win over

930
00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:25,319
Speaker 1: the Patriots on Sunday Night Football which followed that win. Oh,

931
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:28,240
Speaker 1: the Colts, I mean, they're so different. They're big wins.

932
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:32,040
Speaker 1: I think the Indie win. Well, let me just ask you, well,

933
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:34,560
Speaker 1: like I'm answering my own question here, you answer it

934
00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:38,440
Speaker 1: and then I'll chime in. I think that Indianapolis win,

935
00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:44,400
Speaker 1: because coming back from Baltimore, I mean not even coming back.

936
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:48,480
Speaker 1: I remember getting on on the bus and just reading

937
00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 1: the carnage on the social media of what national local

938
00:50:55,280 --> 00:51:01,840
Speaker 1: people thought of this team and Baltimore jaw. I mean, oh,

939
00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:04,360
Speaker 1: Baltimore is the greatest team since sliced bread. But you know,

940
00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:07,440
Speaker 1: the Texans aren't very good, et cetera, et cetera. And

941
00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:10,840
Speaker 1: you've got to turn right around after playing that game

942
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:14,760
Speaker 1: and play the Colts on a Thursday night at home,

943
00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:18,120
Speaker 1: which you've not had a ton of success beating the

944
00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:21,560
Speaker 1: Colts at home. The success you've had, ironically has been

945
00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:24,480
Speaker 1: up in Lucas Oil, and now you gotta beat them

946
00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:27,520
Speaker 1: at home, and then you get behind, but then de

947
00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:29,840
Speaker 1: Sean throws two dives and you get that win. To me,

948
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:32,600
Speaker 1: that Colts game like I'll remember the Patriots game for

949
00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:34,800
Speaker 1: I mean, that was just such to finally beat Brady.

950
00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:36,720
Speaker 1: That was so good. It was more a side of relief,

951
00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:40,359
Speaker 1: but that one against the Colts to bounce back in

952
00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:44,560
Speaker 1: five days from having that loss to Baltimore, to me,

953
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:48,680
Speaker 1: was more impactful. Love the Chiefs loved to win over

954
00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:50,400
Speaker 1: the Chiefs. I mean, that was such a fun game

955
00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:53,000
Speaker 1: to get that win against the Chiefs, but to get

956
00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:57,759
Speaker 1: the win against Baltimore after you just gut crunched at Baltimore,

957
00:51:57,760 --> 00:51:59,800
Speaker 1: I thought it was so big. Well, and the Cults

958
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:03,120
Speaker 1: just blown out the Jags. There were six and four.

959
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:06,200
Speaker 1: They beat the Texans on Thursday night, and who knows

960
00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:08,600
Speaker 1: what happens to their season, right, I mean, Brissette was

961
00:52:08,640 --> 00:52:10,959
Speaker 1: banged up and every day, and they were that when

962
00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:13,399
Speaker 1: they had over the Jags was after back to back

963
00:52:13,480 --> 00:52:17,880
Speaker 1: performances by Hoyer which resulted in losses to Pittsburgh and Miami,

964
00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:22,360
Speaker 1: which I was very happy about, of course, but I

965
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:26,359
Speaker 1: was really happy a win over a division opponent. It

966
00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:30,280
Speaker 1: might not ring the way a win over the Chiefs

967
00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:32,719
Speaker 1: of the Patriots in this era does to a lot

968
00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:35,600
Speaker 1: of fans, but it should because it's the divisional opponent.

969
00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:38,400
Speaker 1: We always talk about. It's like beating somebody twice, especially

970
00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:41,959
Speaker 1: when they're vying for the title in the division, which

971
00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:43,839
Speaker 1: the Cults were at the time. And the one over

972
00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:45,880
Speaker 1: Tennessee on the road, like we always talk about, was

973
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:48,480
Speaker 1: such a tremendous win over the time. At the time,

974
00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:51,200
Speaker 1: I know that it didn't turn out to do what

975
00:52:51,239 --> 00:52:53,600
Speaker 1: you wanted it to do in the postseason. I get it,

976
00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:56,040
Speaker 1: I get it, I get it, But you got you

977
00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:58,200
Speaker 1: have no chance to do anything in the postseason if

978
00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:00,920
Speaker 1: you don't get there and you don't get that division crown.

979
00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:03,160
Speaker 1: And they've been able to do that, so time to

980
00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:05,960
Speaker 1: take some next steps. Well here's the other thing too,

981
00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:10,160
Speaker 1: with that win against the Colts, because they had beat

982
00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:13,279
Speaker 1: you in the playoff game and it was an embarrassing

983
00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:15,759
Speaker 1: loss in the playoff game. Then they beat you up

984
00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:18,319
Speaker 1: there and they give you every opportunity to win that

985
00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:20,759
Speaker 1: game up there, and we couldn't take advantage of it

986
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:23,319
Speaker 1: and win that game. You were in a must win

987
00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:25,279
Speaker 1: situation and it was a team that had a lot

988
00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:29,520
Speaker 1: of confidence. And man, they talked a blue streak during

989
00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:32,839
Speaker 1: that playoff game and in the offseason about man, look

990
00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:35,000
Speaker 1: at what we're doing. We are the best team. I mean,

991
00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:38,719
Speaker 1: they talked forever. Darius Leonard has not shut up yet,

992
00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:41,960
Speaker 1: that whole whole place hadn't shut up. And finally we

993
00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:44,520
Speaker 1: just stuck it to him and I was like, yes,

994
00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:46,400
Speaker 1: it's back to what it's what it should be, the

995
00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:48,560
Speaker 1: Texans winning division. You guys can stay at home for

996
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:51,879
Speaker 1: the playoffs. This is gonna be a weird year with

997
00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:54,840
Speaker 1: fewer fans of the building. It's just gonna be so strange.

998
00:53:54,880 --> 00:53:58,040
Speaker 1: But guess what we'll take it. Ye you watch some

999
00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:03,400
Speaker 1: of the baseball right you have very little, okay, very little.

1000
00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:06,720
Speaker 1: It looks weird with all the acres of empty seats.

1001
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:08,920
Speaker 1: It looks like the Astros did in twenty thirty. No,

1002
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:12,200
Speaker 1: I'm just kidding around. It sounds weird. It sounds weird.

1003
00:54:12,280 --> 00:54:15,840
Speaker 1: It sounds weird. It sounds it's weirder on TV. The

1004
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:19,359
Speaker 1: radio stuff you're in your car, you don't hear it

1005
00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:23,040
Speaker 1: as much. And it's it's exhibition anyway, so you know,

1006
00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:25,160
Speaker 1: it's not like you're dealing with Game five of the

1007
00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:28,759
Speaker 1: World Series here. Uh, it's a different vibe. The I

1008
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:31,560
Speaker 1: think on radio with the football stuff will be good.

1009
00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:33,880
Speaker 1: I mean we'll always will always be good. We'll do

1010
00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:36,560
Speaker 1: our best to be good. But I think the sound

1011
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:39,759
Speaker 1: will be Okay, it's not gonna be this roar, you know,

1012
00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:41,160
Speaker 1: but if you have ten thousand and they can make

1013
00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:42,719
Speaker 1: a lot of noise if they're really into it. So

1014
00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:44,839
Speaker 1: we'll see where it goes. Anyway, that's gonna be at

1015
00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:48,680
Speaker 1: for the show tonight. Back with it tomorrow. Once you

1016
