Let you 16 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 1: get out of here. They're done. And it was a 17 00:00:54,640 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 1: breakfast showdown for the ages, for the Ages, the versus 18 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 1: the Americans, for all the gold, well whatever that is. 19 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: I don't how much gold is actually in a gold medal, 20 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: but they played the game dropping the puck just after 21 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: eight in the morning on the East coast, five in 22 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 1: the morning on the West coast. I don't know if 23 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 1: you watched or not. Maybe you got up early and 24 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: you were watching and perhaps you decided to pick sleep. 25 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: That's what I did. I didn't get on. I do 26 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 1: an overnight show. I'm not getting up at that. How 27 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: are you kidding me? No way. Now, if the game's 28 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: played at a time I can watch it, I will 29 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 1: watch it. And I got up. Thanks to the world 30 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 1: that we live in and you can see everything you 31 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: need to see all that. But my god, I was 32 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 1: snoozing away. I had no concerns, no concerns at all. 33 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: But I watched it on demand there as the game 34 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: ended up going to overtime and Jack Hughes, who Jack 35 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 1: Hughes gets it done? There, the US hockey hero as 36 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: he scored what mister al were called the golden goal, 37 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: the golden goal there against Canada and the game winner 38 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: won forty one into overtime and turn at the lads, 39 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: the parties. Over forty six years, forty six years in 40 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 1: the making the Miracle on Ice, I guess they can 41 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,360 Speaker 1: stop making documentaries about the Miracle on Ice now and 42 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 1: now I can do something with this. I'm probably made 43 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 1: a documentary right imagine there. So anyway, listen, the debate 44 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: now is taking place after the USA won the gold 45 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: in men's hockey. How big a deal is this? How 46 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: big a deal is it? So well, that's a good 47 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: jumping all point. Let us discuss the question who benefits 48 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: more from the Golden goal? Right, the golden goal, as 49 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 1: Kenny Albert called it, who benefits more the NHL marketing 50 00:02:55,320 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: department or Jack Hughes himself, meaning that, Hey, now, this 51 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 1: big game. I'm sure the rings were great, even though 52 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: it was played at a ridiculous hour, and yet will 53 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: this elevate the game of hockey? So I've got my 54 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 1: thoughts on this. I got Marvel, Comics, iPad and beyond meat, 55 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,359 Speaker 1: and we will combine all these things together and make 56 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: some hot dogs and apple pie classic American meal, just 57 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 1: like that. All right? So ay, the answer to the 58 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: question who benefits more? Side by side, You've got the 59 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: NHL marketing people on one side, You've got Jack Hues 60 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: over here on the other side. And the arrow is 61 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: pointing towards Jack Hughes by a country mile, by a 62 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: country mile. The Olympics are all about what they're about, 63 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: flag waving, chess thumping, taking condoms from the Olympics, like 64 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: all that stuff, like that's what this is about, and 65 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: patriotism and all that stuff. So it's a different audience. 66 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: I've tried to explain this to people. They don't understand. 67 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 1: They're called idiots, but I've tried to explain It's like 68 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: the we didn't talk too much about the Olympics on 69 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: this show because we know our audience, and this is 70 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: not that right. You're not getting the people that were 71 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: watching the Olympics, who are really into the Olympics are 72 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: not going to be watching a San Jose Sharks game 73 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: against the Columbus Blue Jackets on a random Tuesday night. 74 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: They're just not Okay, it's not gonna happen. I can 75 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:26,479 Speaker 1: watch a Devil's Stars game on a Thursday night. The NHL. 76 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: The idea that the NHL, many of the people around 77 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 1: the NHL have that this is going to rise, you know, 78 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 1: the the NHL players be in the Olympics the way 79 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: that they were when they stopped the hockey season and 80 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 1: all that stuff. You know, rising tide lifts all boats 81 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: is the mindset, And well, that might be true. I 82 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: see no evidence that that is going to be the case. 83 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 1: It's one speed boat. Granted it's a good looking speedboat, 84 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: solid speed boat, and Jack Hughes is driving. He scored 85 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: the goal, golden gold and all that, and that's great, 86 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: and had a mouthful of chicklets and took some lumber 87 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 1: from Sam Bennett. The teeth go flying, so that was 88 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 1: kind of cool. That's marketing gold, is what that is. 89 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: Forget the golden goal, that's marketing gold. You get the 90 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 1: bloody lip there, some teeth missing, and he's wrapped himself 91 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 1: in the flag. There the stars and stripes and all that. 92 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: Madison Avenue got a little chubby. They're drooling. They're so excited. 93 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: Oh my god, we got his grit. And so the 94 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 1: NHL they will get a temporary sugar high. The NHL 95 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: will get a temporary sugar high. This wasn't twenty college 96 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: kids capturing the hearts, minds and souls of an entire 97 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: sporting nation by ending the Soviet Union's reign of terror. 98 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: This was not that. This was a bunch of high 99 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: paid NHL stars who went out and beat a bunch 100 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: of other high paid NHL stars who happened to be 101 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: wearing laundry representing their country. Period. Stop. That's what this was. Busy, 102 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 1: NHL's got other issues. Like all the sports league day 103 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: to day, they're in the purgatory of regional cable television, 104 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 1: streaming issues, all that stuff. So they've got that now. 105 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,160 Speaker 1: Jack Hughes, right, gotta think of this like Marvel Comics. 106 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 1: I think of this like Marvel Comics because he just 107 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: became Captain America with that gap tooth grin and from 108 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: a marketing standpoint, you got it's a brave new world 109 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: with Jack Hughes. And while the Devils, the New Jersey Devils, 110 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: are not exactly a glamour destination in the National Hockey League, 111 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 1: this is for him breakout. I could see him doing 112 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 1: some insurance commercials, medical spots, sell toothpaste, some kind of 113 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: dental repair operation, advertising, all that stuff, and he'll get 114 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 1: the branding. You know, there'll definitely be some branding here 115 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: for Jack ues, that is for sure. And even you know, 116 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 1: upset and I did kind of enjoy the people who 117 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 1: you know, those that live here in America who hate America. 118 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: There are many of them who are very upset by 119 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: all of this, and it's just, oh, I've annoyed. Everyone's 120 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 1: wrapping themselves in the flag and all that stuff, and 121 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: it's all about the country. It was all about, right, 122 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: I love the jack you said that after the games, 123 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: I love the USA and all that, and the boys 124 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 1: got a phone call from the president and in the 125 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 1: locker room there to congratulate them, you had the FBI 126 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: director was out there futzing around celebrating, and so there 127 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: you go. So those of you that don't like the 128 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: American and all that, well, it was kicking the nuts 129 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 1: to you. I'm sorry about that. It'll be okay, all right. 130 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 1: Now the other side here, the losing locker room, which 131 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: is usually the better story. We had some interesting reactions here, 132 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: including look at the Canadians and how they handle this 133 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 1: very embarrassing right for our brothers and sisters in Canada. 134 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: So the Avalanche center, Nathan McKinnon is his name, and 135 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: he was asked about the final loss, you know, the 136 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 1: Olympic loss there in the final game, the gold medal game, 137 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: and he said, quote, you be the judge of who 138 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 1: was the better team today? That was the quote, You 139 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 1: be the judge of the better team? Was they clearly 140 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: implying that the better team lost the game. So the 141 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 1: question Nathan McKinnon part of the Canadians, and he says 142 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: essentially that the better team Canada lost to the lesser team, 143 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 1: the USA in the Winter Olympics gold medal hockey game. 144 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,079 Speaker 1: Can you put it into context what he's getting at? 145 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 2: So? 146 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: What is he getting so Nathan McKinnon after a minutes 147 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 1: long deliberation of the available information, Nathan McKinnon is in 148 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:58,959 Speaker 1: full blown Morton's salt kind of mind. He's in like 149 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: a Morton saltzte of mind is what he's in right now. 150 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 1: He's sprinkling the kosher salt on the wound, is what 151 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: he's doing here. Canada did win the box score. We 152 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: then when the boxers had forty two shots and team 153 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: USA had twenty eight. Congratulations you team Canada dominated the iPad. Unfortunately, 154 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:25,679 Speaker 1: I don't know there's any way around this. Unfortunately the 155 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 1: game is not played on a tablet, which is just 156 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 1: a shame. It's played on ice, frozen water, and you 157 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 1: gotta put the puck in the net, not on the net, 158 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 1: in the net. You gotta put it in the net. 159 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: And the would have, could have, should have, which I 160 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 1: guess works in a therapy session when you're going to 161 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 1: see your shrink.

They had prime rib opportunity, several of them, 167 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 1: several of them, and they didn't cash in and they 168 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 1: left that on the plate. And that's on them. That's 169 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: on them, including the man who said that essentially the 170 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,199 Speaker 1: Canadian team is better than the US team, Nathan McKinnon 171 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 1: who had an open net and somehow screwed it up, 172 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 1: did not get the puck in the net. That's the 173 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: yetti in the room. That's the abominable snowman in the room. 174 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: And then there's hell on ice. Connor Hellibuck, the goaltender 175 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: forty one saves forty one saves hell on ice for 176 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 1: Team USA and oh it was so nice. And he 177 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 1: believe he plays for the Winnipeg Jets, so I'm sure 178 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: he'll be getting his balls busted when he goes back 179 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 1: to Winnipeg. But there you go, got it done. One 180 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 1: game situation, and that's usually how that goes. And you 181 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: don't want to go down to one game in hockey 182 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: because the goalie. When the goalie gets like that, it's 183 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,199 Speaker 1: like a forest fire. You're not gonna You're not gonna 184 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 1: stop it. You're not putting it out. So good luck 185 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: on that now, last word, just from a wide angle lens, 186 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:23,719 Speaker 1: from thousands of feet up in the sky, looking down 187 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 1: and seeing what has happened here, the curtain coming down 188 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: on the Milana Cortina Winter Olympic Games and all that. 189 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 1: They had the closing ceremonies then Sunday. Now, I did 190 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: not watch the closing ceremonies. I'm not a closing ceremonies guy. 191 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: That's not my thing.

If you like the dancing and 193 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: all that stuff, more power to you, not for me. 194 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: Not for me. So I did not watch it. I 195 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 1: understand though there was quite quite the celebration. There quite 196 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:57,599 Speaker 1: the celebration. Two weeks of competition, one hundred and sixteen 197 00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: sets of medals were given out across sixteen different sports 198 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: at the Olympics. The country of France is next in 199 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 1: line for the Winter Olympics. In twenty thirty, the Winter 200 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 1: Games in the French Alps will be taking place there. 201 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,839 Speaker 1: La will host the Summer Games coming up in twenty 202 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 1: twenty eight, so you got that to look forward to. 203 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:24,079 Speaker 1: So with the men's hockey medal team, USA their final 204 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 1: medal count. They got thirty three overall medals, But do 205 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: we really count the bronze? Why did they even do? 206 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: Why do they still give out the bronze? This says? 207 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: Is that not the dumbest thing I've never met heared 208 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 1: anyone say that's a good thing. The bronze medals dumb, 209 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: The silver medals stupid. 210 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 3: Two. 211 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 1: USA got twelve gold medals. That's really all that matters. Right. 212 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: The thirty two is wonderful, but the thirty three, But 213 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:48,559 Speaker 1: twelve gold medals, that's what should be all around. Norway 214 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: had an Olympic high eighteen gold medals, and they led 215 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,719 Speaker 1: overall with forty one. If you're into that kind, I 216 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: think forty one medals, but the gold is really all 217 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 1: that metal. We don't sell the break second place in 218 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: any other sport? Is there any other than the college 219 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 1: basketball where you get the final four? Right? I should 220 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 1: say college basketball? They celebrate the final four in this case. 221 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:17,199 Speaker 1: Come on, so question, how much did you enjoy the 222 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: Winter Olympics.

The Scouting Combine gets going 302 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:31,400 Speaker 1: this week in Indianapolis. A good chance for NFL executives 303 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 1: to run up their expense accounts and hang out and 304 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:39,239 Speaker 1: just throw rumors. That's what it's all about so the 305 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: rules of the game will also be addressed. We love 306 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: rules of the game. So we have been given an 307 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 1: update update on the future of the tushy pushy. Do 308 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,880 Speaker 1: you see this? Maybe not, Maybe you were not paying 309 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: atention that we've learned. Now will the NFL outlaw the 310 00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 1: tush push or are they gonna keep it? Well? The 311 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 1: co chairman of the NFL's Competition Committee, Rich McKay, another 312 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 1: NEPO baby, His dad a longtime NFL executive. So Rich 313 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: McKay not not anticipating an attempt to ban the tush push. 314 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 1: The tushy is in the clear. The tushy is in 315 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:27,239 Speaker 1: the clear. Big news for those of you that are 316 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 1: fans of the tushpush. Massive news, so coin Rich McKay. 317 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 1: There's no team proposal that he has seen, he said, 318 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 1: following a day of meetings at the Combine in Indianapois. Overall, 319 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: the NFL saw the tush pushes go up slightly more. 320 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 1: There were eleven more tush pushes in twenty twenty five 321 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 1: as opposed to twenty twenty four. The conversion rate was 322 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 1: actually lower as teams figured out some ways to slow 323 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 1: down the tushpush and the Eagles were not nearly as 324 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 1: effective as they had been, and in twenty twenty five, 325 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 1: team's made a first down seventy seven percent of the 326 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:15,360 Speaker 1: time and compared to eighty two percent, so it went 327 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: down about five percent, about five percent from what it 328 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 1: had been. The Eagles were much higher prior to this 329 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: past year when the numbers went down, So that is 330 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: a good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question, 331 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:34,120 Speaker 1: are you surprised that it appears the NFL is no 332 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:39,400 Speaker 1: longer gung ho to get rid of the tushy pushy 333 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty six? So my thoughts on this, I've 334 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 1: got Metamorphosis, Frankenstein and Cottonell Clean Care, and we will 335 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 1: combined all of these things together and we are going 336 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,719 Speaker 1: to make some disinfecting wipes, which for some reason we 337 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 1: still have a bunch of. Here's a leftover from COVID. 338 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 1: They have tons of this. The company doesn't like spending money, 339 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 1: but they love spending money on disinfecting wipes. A lot 340 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 1: of those, A lot of those here a right, so 341 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 1: number all right, So we are pleasantly surprised the tush 342 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:21,640 Speaker 1: push is not going to be outlawed in twenty twenty six. 343 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:25,400 Speaker 1: We have been pro tushy pushy behind these microphones. We've 344 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: been part of that caucus from the very beginning. We 345 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: have done many Mallard monologues about how stupid it is 346 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: to get rid of the tushpush Is it pretty? No, 347 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 1: hell no, it's not pretty. It's not esthetically pleasing. It's 348 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:45,880 Speaker 1: South Philly bar, bathroom hasn't been cleaned in a couple 349 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:50,679 Speaker 1: of months. Dirty, it's ugly. It is ugly. Yet that 350 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: being said the whole we can't stop it, so you 351 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 1: must get rid of it. Mindset that crowd, that loser crowd. 352 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:03,680 Speaker 1: They did it in baseball. They had the shift. In baseball. 353 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,159 Speaker 1: Players couldn't figure out how to hit the ball the 354 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: opposite way to get base hit, so they just outlawed 355 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 1: the shift. Dumb da dum, dumb dumb. And so I 356 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,440 Speaker 1: will give the NFL credit. It appears that even though 357 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,639 Speaker 1: they were only a couple of votes away from getting 358 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: rid of the toushbush, they have had a one point 359 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 1: eighty and are now going back to say, well, okay, 360 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 1: we'll just leave it. Basketball got rid of the slam 361 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 1: dunk at one point because because of the way the 362 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:29,920 Speaker 1: game was said. Oh, it's not fair. This guy's dunking 363 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 1: all the time. You know, we got to get rid 364 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 1: of it. Will Chamberl Kareema ablul Jabar, whoever got to 365 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 1: get rid of it, get rid of the dunk. So listen, 366 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 1: it's loser talk. It was always loser talk. We said 367 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,880 Speaker 1: it from the bully pulpit that it was loser talk. 368 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 1: And it's like, you know, let me, let me have 369 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 1: the league step in his big brother and get rid 370 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:49,879 Speaker 1: of this play because we can't figure it out. I 371 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 1: just left a bad taste, just a bad taste. It's 372 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: it's like a soggy, cold cheese steak that's sitting under 373 00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 1: a heat lamp and you don't really want to eat 374 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 1: it in the whole thing. Now, some people say, well, 375 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 1: it's just strategy, that's all it is. Others call it 376 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: a cheap play and that's that. But the novel idea 377 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 1: was always Okay, stop it, that's it. It's not that hard, 378 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,640 Speaker 1: it's not that deep. Just stop the play. And if 379 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,119 Speaker 1: you can't stop it, just run it yourself. Then if 380 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:23,919 Speaker 1: it's the unstoppable play, just run it. That's it and 381 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 1: use it to your own advantage. Put that in your 382 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 1: bag of tricks. And by the way, it wasn't the 383 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 1: whole league. If you look at the math on this, 384 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 1: it was two teams that were mostly running the toush push. 385 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: As almost forty percent of the plays where they ran 386 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: the tush push in the NFL last year were by 387 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:43,879 Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles and the Buffalo Bills. Those were the 388 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 1: two teams that were all about the tush push. So 389 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 1: that's not exactly a crisis. I think it was about 390 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,560 Speaker 1: forty percent of all the tush push plays were run 391 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 1: by those two teams, the Eagles and the Buffalo Bills, 392 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 1: and so it's not a crisis. There's a little bit 393 00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: of competitive advantage for Buffalo and Philadelphia. They were good 394 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,119 Speaker 1: at it, they ran it a lot. But the real reason, 395 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: give me some real talk. We start to calling him 396 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:13,120 Speaker 1: real talk, the real talk about why the toush push 397 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 1: cooled off? Like, what was it they cooled off? Well, 398 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 1: the Eagles underwent a metamorphosis this past year. They went 399 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: from angry birds, angry birds to bird brains in Philadelphia, 400 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: from champs to chumps. Now they made the playoffs. That 401 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 1: is true. They were no longer juggernauts. They were no 402 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 1: longer a dominant team. They had internal issues in Philadelphia, 403 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:39,119 Speaker 1: and the people that were screaming and pounding the table 404 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 1: to get rid of the toush push, well, they didn't 405 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 1: sense as much outrage and lose early in the playoffs, playoffs, 406 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: and suddenly the angst goes away, It vanished. It's funny 407 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 1: how that works. It's odd. It's odd how that works. 408 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 1: But it does seem to work that way. And suddenly 409 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 1: nobody's clutching their pearls and it's no longer a big 410 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: issue now. Page two. Keeping the theme of the hour going, 411 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 1: I checked my inbox on Sunday and had several correspondents 412 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: from my friends in the Pacific Northwest who were dog 413 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 1: piling on very very upset. I don't think upsets the 414 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 1: right word. They were taking joy from a story that 415 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: also popped up over the weekend. We learned that the 416 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: la Rams planned to submit at the Combine this week 417 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,639 Speaker 1: where they're having the rules meetings, they're going to submit 418 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 1: a rule change proposal this offseason regarding the bogus two 419 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,680 Speaker 1: point play that was given to Seattle that they did 420 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 1: not earn. Just one of the more ridiculous moments in 421 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,679 Speaker 1: NFL history, one of the more embarrassing moments. Cheapened everything 422 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 1: Seattle did. Everything Seattle did was cheapened by that play. 423 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: And there was a two point conversion of Week sixteen 424 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: rams in Seattle if you missed it. On the play. 425 00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 1: Late in regulation, Sam Donald attempted a backward pass that 426 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 1: was deflected off a RAM defender's helmet chaired verse and 427 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 1: it went forward unintentionally. Now, players on both sides assumed 428 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 1: it was an incomplete dead ball because there was a whistle. 429 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 1: They whistled the officials whistle, so it plays over. So 430 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 1: they went to replay. While they were selling nachos or 431 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:30,719 Speaker 1: whatever and putting stuff on television commercials, so they went 432 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 1: to replay to review the play, and they overturned the 433 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 1: play to fumble recovery for Zach Charbonneau in the end zone, 434 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: who casually walked over and picked up the football, and 435 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 1: they gave him two points. I know you're shaking your head. 436 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:49,440 Speaker 1: This is like the most embarrassing. It is embarrassing. I 437 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: agree with you. It's embarrassing. Cheapmans everything Seattle did. I agree. 438 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 1: So now my guys in Seattle, they their tone in 439 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: the emails was like, oh, this is embarrassing. You should 440 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 1: be embarrassed as a RAM fan. Your team's in a 441 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,640 Speaker 1: joke and all this stuff. So the RAMS are being mocked, apparently, 442 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 1: and being ridiculed and tarred and feathered because Sean mcvay's 443 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 1: team and his buddies with the RAMS are looking to 444 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 1: tweak the rule that wacky, bogus two point conversion fiasco 445 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:25,400 Speaker 1: against the Seattle Seahawks. And so people say, oh, sour grapes, 446 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 1: and oh you petty, all right, question, do you have 447 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 1: an issue? Do you have an issue with the RAMS 448 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 1: looking to change the rules on the two point conversion controversy? 449 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 1: So no, In fact, I actually smiled when I saw 450 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 1: all of these Settle Seahawks fans. I say all of them, 451 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 1: the two people that emailed me. I smiled because I thought, man, 452 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 1: they just won the Super Bowl and they're still worried 453 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,200 Speaker 1: about the Rams. They're still bothered by the Rams. They 454 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 1: know that this is bogus, that their reaction is one 455 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,479 Speaker 1: of like, wow, we didn't really earn those two points, 456 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:05,400 Speaker 1: and like I can hear no Stredinis right now saying, yeah, 457 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 1: you know you're right, Ben, that was that was a 458 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: bad play. The referees screwed that up and we benefited 459 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: from it. But it was a bad play. So I 460 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 1: support this one hundred percent. Right. Uh, And here's why 461 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:20,880 Speaker 1: they explained why. Because you blow the whistle, you play 462 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:24,679 Speaker 1: to the whistle. Right. This wasn't like a bang bang 463 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 1: live ball rugby scrum situation. Wasn't that at all. This 464 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 1: wasn't a case where one team clearly out hustled the 465 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 1: other team. No, both teams stopped on the play. The 466 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 1: whistle blew. Bodies relaxed at that point, Helmets came off, 467 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 1: Defensive linemen stopped chasing, offensive players stopped blocking because you 468 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:52,639 Speaker 1: played to the whistle. And everyone, every man, woman too, 469 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:59,680 Speaker 1: I mean, everyone operated under the universal football commandment. You 470 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:06,920 Speaker 1: to the whistle. That's it. And then hours later, of course, 471 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 1: you know NFL time. Hours later, it was a couple 472 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,360 Speaker 1: of minutes. They go to the replay center in New 473 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 1: York and actually, psych surprise, we're gonna give Seattle two 474 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 1: points because Pooka Na Puoh went on a podcast and 475 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 1: ripped our officials. So we're gonna screw over the rams 476 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 1: and give two points. The Seahawks didn't earn, didn't I 477 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 1: didn't earn it, did not earn it. Give it give it. 478 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: So you can't and I think we'd all you cannot 479 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 1: retroactively revive a dead play. Can't do it like it's 480 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 1: like Frankenstein's Monster. You're wreaking. No, you can't do that. 481 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 1: They did it. The whistle creates a change in behavior. 482 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: It always has, it always will right, and in this 483 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 1: case there's an integrity issue. Everything's compromised when you just decide, well, 484 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: everyone stopped in the play, and this one guy walked 485 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 1: over and picked up the football, so we'll give him 486 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 1: to a point. No, it's ridiculous. Muscle memory tells you 487 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 1: when you hear a whistle, you stop. That's it, survival instinct, 488 00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it. That's the way this 489 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 1: is done. And so when the critics are out calling 490 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 1: out the rams, sour grapes, this, that and the other thing, please, 491 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 1: it's not about hurt feelings. It's about truth. Justice in 492 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 1: the American way in the NFL, is what it's about. 493 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: The whistle alters effort, it always has, It alters effort, reaction, 494 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: all of that. Fundamentally, it's supposed to do that. So 495 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 1: you cannot hand out points in a laboratory somewhere in 496 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: New Jersey or New York when everyone's been disengaged. Cannot 497 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:52,959 Speaker 1: do it. But they did it, and the Rams are 498 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 1: trying to trying to take that loophole and say you 499 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 1: can't do it, and that's great. You know you can't 500 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 1: do it. You play bunker in Manhattan, can't do it 501 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 1: in the stadium, can't do it anywhere. You play to 502 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 1: the whistle. That's it all, right, final point. So, a 503 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 1: new poll out of NFL executives found that Indiana quarterback 504 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: Fernando Mendoza is not considered the top player in the 505 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 1: twenty twenty six NFL Draft. Now, I pointed out that 506 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: I was not impressed with Fernando Mendoza, and I learned 507 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: that there are a bunch of bots that love Indiana 508 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: Hoosier football. And I don't know how many of those 509 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 1: people were real. I think most of them were not. 510 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 1: I think they just kind of got caught up the 511 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 1: bots in what I had to say. But turns out 512 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: I was on the right side of history, based on 513 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 1: what I'm reading here. Over the weekend, in a poll 514 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 1: of NFL executives, coaches, and players who were asked who 515 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 1: the best players in the twenty twenty six NFL draft 516 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: class were regardless of positions a position. Take it out 517 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 1: of here. Things did not go well for Fernando Mendoza 518 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 1: not In fact, turns out that Ohio state pass rusher 519 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 1: Arvel Reese was dubbed the top NFL prospect or suspect. 520 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: He got the most votes, followed by Notre Dame running 521 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 1: back Jeremiah Love. That's a great name. If he's good, 522 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 1: that's a star's name. Jeremiah Love. That's going to be 523 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 1: a star. So Jeremiah Love. He also had more votes. 524 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: Mendoza was tied with Buck Guy's safety Caleb Downs. They 525 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: each only got one vote. That's it, all right, So 526 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 1: question how much stalk? How much stalk do you put 527 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 1: into Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza not being voted the top 528 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: player among the twenty twenty six eligible players for the 529 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: college draft. So this is something that we all want 530 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 1: when you do this for a living, and when you're 531 00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 1: in the industrial complex of the hot take, and that's 532 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 1: what this is, industrial complex of the hot take. We're 533 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 1: fighting all the other hot take artists and you want 534 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 1: hot take validation. You need every once in a while 535 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 1: hot take validation. This is hot take validation. Listen, Fernando 536 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 1: Mendoz is fine, he's got mid round ability and you 537 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 1: should draft him in the mid round. And who knows, 538 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 1: it's possible that Fernando Mendozo will turn out to be 539 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 1: a decent NFL quarterback. You don't draft him with the 540 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: top pick. That's malfeasance. If you take him with the 541 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 1: top pick, right, you draft at the very top based 542 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 1: on the measurables, you draft on all of those. He's 543 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 1: not the biggest, strongest, fastest. The NFL is all about 544 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 1: the measurables, capital m that's what has always been about. 545 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 1: It's height, arm, wheels, all that stuff. He does not 546 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 1: pop off the tape, Fernando Mendoza. He does it. There's 547 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 1: no fireworks like it's the fourth of July. No, So 548 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 1: why do the Raiders have him at the very top 549 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 1: of the draft. It's Fomo. It's fear of missing out. Well, 550 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 1: what if we're wrong? What if he turns out to 551 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 1: be good. Everyone's afraid of Fomo because if you don't 552 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,760 Speaker 1: draft Fernando Mendoza, even though you're pretty sure he's gonna 553 00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 1: be average, not stink, but be average, and he turns 554 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 1: out to be better than that, you lose your job, right, 555 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 1: and so everyone's afraid of that, the fear of missing 556 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 1: out in case he's good, and so you end up 557 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 1: drafting him even though you know he's not great. There's 558 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 1: a supply chain shortage. There's a supply chain short of 559 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks. It's the It's kind of like a Cottonell 560 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 1: Clean Care toilet paper in twenty twenty. You knew it 561 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 1: wasn't the greatest toilet paper, but you needed toilet paper 562 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 1: because everyone was trying to buy toilet paper and water 563 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: during the pandemic. And so you know that's rough and scratchy, 564 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 1: and it tears easily because it's not you know, we 565 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: had the dude wipes where they were the sponsor. I mean, 566 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: that's what you need right there. Yeah, fresh, keep your 567 00:33:55,760 --> 00:34:00,040 Speaker 1: fresh and the whole thing. However, when you're desperate, and 568 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 1: this would be desperate, you convince yourself the store brand 569 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 1: is gourmet. The store brand is absolutely gourmet. For an 570 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:11,759 Speaker 1: a Mendoza, he doesn't have the razzle dazzle. He's lacking that. 571 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 1: And the draft. There's some some dingle hopper involved in this, right, 572 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,359 Speaker 1: you know, the dingle hoppers are are bluffing and they're 573 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:23,759 Speaker 1: pumping him up and all this stuff, and it's like 574 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:27,279 Speaker 1: a used car. You're trying to sell the used cars. Oh, 575 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:31,400 Speaker 1: this has barely been driven. You know this. No scratches 576 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:34,319 Speaker 1: on this thing. That's great. Everything. Want to there you go. 577 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 1: But the the draft, the NFL Draft, they build these 578 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 1: guys up. You need every year. The agents get involved 579 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 1: and they're gonna make this guy seem like he's Johnny 580 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:45,720 Speaker 1: Appleseed by the time we get to the draft. 581 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,040 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller 582 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:51,239 Speaker 2: Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific. 583 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: It's maller. How about that? 584 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 2: To the third degree? 585 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 1: That's one of the big Ben. Really, it's grilled. Miles. 586 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,279 Speaker 3: Garrett said in a recent interview that he wants to 587 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 3: break the all time sack record. He said, he's I'm 588 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 3: going to take that down, and I prefer to I 589 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:11,080 Speaker 3: take it down here in the next five years. Ben, 590 00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 3: do you think he'll be able to break Bruce Smith's record. 591 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:17,879 Speaker 1: No, he will not. It's nice to say. It's great 592 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:19,680 Speaker 1: to throw it out there. I like the fact he's 593 00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 1: given up on winning the Super Bowl now because he 594 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:23,440 Speaker 1: played for the Cleveland Browns, so he's now all about 595 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:27,439 Speaker 1: individual records. I do not foresee him breaking the sack record. 596 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:28,840 Speaker 1: You got to stay healthy, you got to play a 597 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:30,480 Speaker 1: long time. He ain't gonna do that. 598 00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 3: Next Jackson Smith and Jigba was the best wide receiver 599 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 3: in the league last season, and he is now eligible 600 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 3: for his second contract and he wants to be the 601 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:41,239 Speaker 3: highest paid receiver in the game. 602 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 1: Do you think he will be? Yeah? I think he 603 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 1: actually will be because of the way the salarycap is, 604 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 1: it keeps raising every year, and the fact that Seahawks 605 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:54,560 Speaker 1: are still on that dopamine high from the after goal 606 00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 1: of the Super Bowl. So yeah, I think he will 607 00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 1: becoming the high speed Next. 608 00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:01,720 Speaker 3: So, Tyreek Hill posted of himself working out in Kansas City. 609 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:03,040 Speaker 1: Eric the Enemy is back. 610 00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 3: Everybody thinks Tyreek Kansas City is a done deal, but 611 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:07,719 Speaker 3: Andy Reid said, there's nothing happening there. 612 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 1: We know what you know, Ben, Do you think he's 613 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 1: gonna end up in Kansas City? Well, even if he does, 614 00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,399 Speaker 1: how much does Tyreek Hill have left? He's probably gonna 615 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 1: miss most of the year anyway. So it's like that 616 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,319 Speaker 1: doesn't really move the needle at all. So he's got 617 00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 1: a major injury. How do we do kobolo?
