1 00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:08,000 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Welcome to the program. All Fired Up this Thursday, 3 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:11,559 Speaker 1: Dan and the Danettes. Dan Patrick Show schedule came out 4 00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 1: last night. You're running down the schedule week week by week, 5 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:24,120 Speaker 1: win loss, loss win. Looking at the Buccaneers schedule looks 6 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 1: easy or easy er. There are certain teams where you 7 00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 1: go and that doesn't bode well for them. But you 8 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:34,280 Speaker 1: start to look at some of these teams and you say, 9 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:39,519 Speaker 1: all right, I could see maybe thirteen wins, but thirteen 10 00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 1: and four because we have seventeen games coming up this season. 11 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,839 Speaker 1: But watching some of the matchups here, some of the 12 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 1: matchups we already knew. The question is when were you 13 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 1: going to be playing a certain team? And was going 14 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:53,519 Speaker 1: to be on a Sunday night, was going to be 15 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: on a Thursday, It was going to be on a Monday. 16 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: But I think with the Buccaneers, they open up with 17 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: the Cowboys Falcon then they're at the Rams and Tom 18 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,040 Speaker 1: Brady has not won a game in Los Angeles and 19 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: in two d and ninety nine games. This will be 20 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 1: the first time he's played a football game in Los 21 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,759 Speaker 1: Angeles against the Rams and hoping he gets a return 22 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 1: visit in the middle of February for the Super Bowl 23 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: that will be in Los Angeles eight seven seven three 24 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,119 Speaker 1: d P Show email address Dpadan Patrick dot com, Twitter 25 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 1: handle at DPS show. There's only one person or a 26 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: set of people you can really trust in the NFL. 27 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 1: Those are the folks who set the betting lines for 28 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: the games, and as of now, there are spreads for 29 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,680 Speaker 1: every game in Week one except four Green Bay at 30 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 1: New Orleans suspiciously missing. That means Vegas doesn't know if 31 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers will be on the Packers, which basically means 32 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: nobody knows if Aaron Rodgers will be on the Packers. 33 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: Maybe not even Aaron Rodgers right now. The sports books 34 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: obviously don't want to set a betting line assuming Rodgers 35 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: is on the field, then have people jump in on 36 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 1: the Saints early. And I don't know what the line 37 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: would be if Jordan Love was starting for the Packers, 38 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: but it would be different than Rogers. And don't worry 39 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: if you're dying to get some money down, we'll know 40 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: before September twelfth if Rogers will be back in a 41 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:16,239 Speaker 1: Packers uniform, and knowing Vegas, they'll figure it out before 42 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: everybody else does because they have to. Yes, MC loving. 43 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: So I'm waiting for some scoop here. We haven't had 44 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: a good Aaron Rodgers rumor a week. I don't have 45 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: any scoopage. I don't have anything. Last time we talked 46 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 1: about it, we had Adam Schefter on and all I 47 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: wanted to know was was there breaking news? Was this 48 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: a breaking news story on the day of the draft? 49 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: And we found out that it wasn't. It was an accumulation, 50 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 1: but it did still feel like there was breaking news 51 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 1: to this. It's been quiet, and I'm imagining as many 52 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,800 Speaker 1: years as I've been in this business, when it gets 53 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,679 Speaker 1: quiet as when things get done, and maybe some things 54 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: are getting done now that could be a separation of 55 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: divorce between the too. But my thought all along as 56 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is still the Packers quarterback come week one 57 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 1: of this upcoming season, Yeah, club, would you be comfortable 58 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: signing him to a long term deal at this age? 59 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 1: I think he's thirty seven or something, So how long 60 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: does he want to play? Like he's already under contract? 61 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: Do I want to pay him five years? Does he 62 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: want to play five years? He wants security? Now? Once again, 63 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: I'm quoting what others are reporting. He reportedly wants to 64 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 1: be able to have a guarantee that he's going to 65 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,119 Speaker 1: be the starter and probably wants to have a say 66 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: in the roster. I think he basically wants to say, 67 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: Jordan Love is not going to play in Green Bay 68 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 1: unless I get injured. Now, Brady did that in New 69 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: England with a power play, going to Robert Kraft reportedly 70 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: and said you got to get this guy out of here, 71 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo, and they traded him to the Niners. I 72 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: don't know if that's what Aaron Rodgers is basically saying. 73 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: I want to cancel Jordan Love out. I want to 74 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: be able to play here, just so you guys admit 75 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: you guys made a mistake. Don't bet against me. But 76 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. Once again, this is what people are reporting. 77 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: Aaron hasn't said anything, the Packers haven't verified anything. It's 78 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: just somebody is telling somebody a couple of things here. 79 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: Whether it's coming from Rogers side of the equation, it's 80 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: coming from the Packer's side, or maybe it's an outlier 81 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: another team that could be saying this, yeah, play, I 82 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 1: check some Vegas odds and one sports book did run 83 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 1: odds with and without Rogers. With Aaron Rodgers, they're the 84 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 1: overall overwhelming favorite to win their division. If somehow there 85 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: is another quarterback, and they used Jordan Love as an example, 86 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,159 Speaker 1: the Vikings will be the favorite to win division. The 87 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 1: Packers will be second based off Vegas odds. I don't 88 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,599 Speaker 1: see Jordan Love being the quarterback now. I know they 89 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: brought in Blake Bordles, but he's a backup quarterback. Jordan 90 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 1: Love is the backup to the backup right now. The 91 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: NFL does have an out. There's a flex in the 92 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: schedule the last two primetime games with the Packers the 93 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: final two games the Bears in Week thirteen, Vikings in 94 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 1: Week sixteen. Those are Sunday night games. They come after. 95 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: Flexing schedule will kick in. So if Rogers doesn't play 96 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: for the Packers, or if they're out of contention with 97 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 1: Jordan Love or somebody else, or somebody else at quarterback, 98 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 1: then they can flex out of that. On NBC just 99 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: some of the things to keep an eye on. I 100 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: do love Brady going to New England against Belichick, and 101 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,479 Speaker 1: I was wondering who has more at stake there. I 102 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 1: know it's one game, but it's back in Foxborough. How 103 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 1: do the Patriot fans react? Part of them will want 104 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: Tom to probably play well, but not too well. And 105 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 1: then you have Belichick who has loaded up that roster, 106 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 1: free agency, the draft, and I don't know how important 107 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 1: it is to Bill because Bill will never let on 108 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 1: and Tom probably won't eat either. You know, Hey, it'll 109 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 1: be emotional, and I look forward to going back, being 110 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: able to give an official goodbye, you know, to that 111 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: fan base and the wonderful people there, and Belichick will 112 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: probably say, uh, basically, it's another game on the schedule. 113 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 1: It's a game we got to win, and all its 114 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: good to be, you know, basically quality opponent. And I 115 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: look forward to seeing Tom, yeah, do one of those 116 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: things where he only refers to the player. Well, you know, 117 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: the player is certainly good over there, but you know, 118 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,600 Speaker 1: fifty other man we have to worry about. Yes, Todd, 119 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: he'll never admit it, but I think he's secretly he 120 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,039 Speaker 1: definitely wants to win that game. He's his star quarterback 121 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: to past who get decades, leaves and immediately wins a 122 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: Super Bowl with another team, and he's coming into your house. 123 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 1: You've got to make sure you fight a way to 124 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 1: win that game, which still doesn't take away the fact 125 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 1: that Brady just won a super Bowl with the buccaneer. 126 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 1: Thank you. Yes, point, Britty's right, But there's no upside 127 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: for Belichick even if he won the game because Brady 128 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: walks in and walks out as defending super Bowl quarterback. Yeah, 129 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: and same with Brady. Brady could lose forty five to 130 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 1: three and go, oh cool, I'll put my ring on 131 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: and head back to house. Can Tom play with his 132 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,479 Speaker 1: ring on? Could he take it up? And that that's 133 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: why it'd be great if he came down out during 134 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 1: warmups he got that big super Bowl ring. Oh yeah, 135 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: you'd have all of them on. Oh I forgot to 136 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: take off all these super Bowl rings. Yeah, he's all 137 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: tilted to one side because there's five on one another 138 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: too heavy. He's walking like Phil Jackson. Yes. Yes. Do 139 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: they approach each other at all pre game, like when 140 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: the coaches come by for a quick high or whatever? 141 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 1: Or is it all business? They don't talk it all 142 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: before during the after the game. Nothing. I don't know 143 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: if Bill is chatty enough that he would seek out Tom. 144 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: It strikes me that Tom would play nice in New 145 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: England and that that he would not that he's currying favor, 146 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: But but I think he would. I think it's smart business. 147 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: If Tom goes out there and kind of acknowledges the 148 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: crowd and maybe even walks over, He'll he'll definitely walk 149 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 1: over to Robert Kraft. You know that's happening, and Robert 150 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: Kraft's not going to be far from Bill Belichick. I'm 151 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: gonna guess it's kind of like the greeting you know, 152 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: you go to the White House, there's the greeting line 153 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: there or a wedding reception high you know, I'm so happy, 154 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: so proud of you. You know, he could do that, 155 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: go down the list, down the line. Yes, but if 156 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: it goes poorly for the Patriots after the games, he 157 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: running off. Is there any type of acknowledgement between the 158 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: two of them, especially if they didn't see each other 159 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: talk to each other at all the entire time before 160 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: the game? Do you would give him any kind of 161 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: I doubt acknowledgement. I doubt. I mean think it went 162 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 1: through with that guy, yeah, but I don't think he 163 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:43,199 Speaker 1: likes him. I mean Tom wanted to get away from him. 164 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 1: How do you not just a quick good damn why 165 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 1: you do it? No before the game. Get it out 166 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: the way before the game. Even if you want, you 167 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: know the camera's gonna be on you. You acknowledge like 168 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 1: games over and you wait, that's what I would do. 169 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: But you know, Bruce, Harrian's and Belichick will probably meet 170 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 1: at midfield and do that real quick shake and then 171 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 1: they go, Yeah, mclovin. If you're the Patriots and you're wondering, 172 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: when do you put in mac Jones? Don't you want 173 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 1: a veteran? Don't you want Cam Newton in that game? 174 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 1: Because if they lost and mac Jones looked bad, that 175 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 1: would be even doubly depressing. But how many weeks in 176 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 1: before they play each other afore? Yeah mac Jones didn't playing. 177 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: Oh that's not a dangerous spot yet for Cam. He's 178 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:24,319 Speaker 1: going to get the first half of the God, I 179 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 1: hope not. I mean mac Jones is just getting there. 180 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: You got all those free I think you have to 181 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: be fair to Cam. You brought in, You basically turned 182 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: your team over, and I think you owe it to 183 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: Cam to at least give him halfway through the season 184 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: and then kind of find out where you are. Because 185 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: Miami's good and you know that Buffalo is going to 186 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: be good. That's you got to start to handicap your 187 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,719 Speaker 1: season here of when do we play him? When is 188 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: too soon? And I think that would be what I 189 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: would guard against if if I'm Belichick, Yeah, mclem but 190 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 1: Cam didn't look right last year, he shoulder wise, like 191 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: you're gonna know if everything that's his one concern with 192 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: him right, that is well, I gotta I gotta be 193 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: fair to him. He had no preseason, no camp, and 194 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 1: then he goes to New England and I don't know 195 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 1: how healthy he was, and then you have a depleted 196 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 1: roster there. I'd like to see what he does with, 197 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 1: you know, maybe a cabinet that's a little fuller than 198 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: it was last year. And I think now two years 199 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: off surgery, he should be back to normal. I don't 200 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 1: know if he's going to be back to normal, not 201 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 1: with the shoulder, Like shoulder does. Shoulders so tricky. It's 202 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: still the trickiest. You can have hip replacement, you can 203 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: have knee replacement, but when it comes to getting your 204 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: shoulder or your back treated, they haven't mastered that. And 205 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: on first hand knowledge, with the shoulder, I still have 206 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: issues just raising my arm up in a normal fashion. 207 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: I mean, it doesn't affect my jumper, but it's still 208 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: like there's pain in there. I wish Fritzie had shoulder 209 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,719 Speaker 1: surgery so he couldn't raise his hand as Offen what 210 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 1: I don't understand. Where did that come from? Where did 211 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 1: that come from? Uh, let's see what else do we have? 212 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: So we got our pole question? Is this? Yeah? The 213 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: pole question is of all the teams that had just 214 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 1: one primetime game, who deserved more at Actually, Pauli is 215 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: right on. The Jaguars are running away with us. People 216 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,679 Speaker 1: can't understand why they only have one game the Bengals 217 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: or second. I think people want to see Joe Burrow. 218 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 1: I want to see Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase. I 219 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: don't know if there's anybody else that I want to see. 220 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 1: The Texans got zero votes, by the way, zero. Nobody 221 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: wants to see the Texans. David Culley, the new head coach. No, 222 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 1: but poor David. Yes, nobody wants to see that team. 223 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 1: Talk about not being relevant. I mean they're relevant if 224 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson is able to play, but they're like talk 225 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 1: about a nondescript team. You know, DeAndre Hopkins two years ago. 226 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: See you JJ Watt last year, see you Deshaun Watson. 227 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 1: Not on the football field. It's not like you go. 228 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 1: And I still want to tune in to see exactly 229 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 1: David Johnson, Yeah even a name. Yeah, I don't think 230 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,559 Speaker 1: he's guaranteed to make it. I don't think he is either. 231 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 1: I don't think so. They got Philip Lindsay he's a 232 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: little spicy. No he's not. But who are their receivers? 233 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 1: I decided Google, Oh, they have Randall Cobb, Brandon Cooks 234 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 1: and Kiki qt. Yeah, they should trade Randall Cob back 235 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:43,319 Speaker 1: to the Packers for like a six round draft pick. Clearhouse. 236 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:47,080 Speaker 1: The Lakers raised their twenty twenty banner. Lebron is still resting, 237 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 1: James Harden came back for the Nets. The Knicks clinched 238 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: a playoffs spot. The Lakers seem all but destined for 239 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 1: the seventh seed. The only way they can avoid the 240 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: play in tournament is if they win both of their 241 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:02,439 Speaker 1: remaining games on the road against the Pacers and the Pelicans, 242 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 1: and at least one of the Blazers in Mavericks lose 243 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: both of their games. That's what the Lakers at the 244 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: Pelicans loss officially eliminates them from the playoff contention if 245 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 1: they lose tonight. San Antonio Spurs, who lost to the Nets, 246 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:22,839 Speaker 1: are two games ahead of the Sacramento Kings, and that's 247 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: about it. The MAVs are also one win away from 248 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 1: finishing sixth. You know, they host the Raptors and then 249 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 1: they visit the Timberwolves, two teams who have already been 250 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: eliminated from playoff contention. Blazers, MAVs, Lakers all one last night, 251 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 1: so they maintain the five, six and seven seeds in 252 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 1: the West with two games left in the regular season. 253 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 1: A couple of phone calls in here eight seven seven 254 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: three DP show Paul and Iowa leads this off. Hi, Paul, 255 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 1: what do you have for me today? Hey? Dan? First off, 256 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 1: quick shout out to Laureston Skate Park and been des 257 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: Moines on the River downtown last week. Largest skate park 258 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 1: in America, hosting Olympic qualifyings later this month. But my 259 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: question for you is it's one of my favorite way 260 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: too early and overreaction days on the sports calendar after 261 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: the NFL schedule comes out. Okay, which of these eight 262 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: teams do you think has the best chance of continuing 263 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: the worst to first tradition in the NFL divisions Niners, Falcons, Eagles, 264 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: Lions in the NFC and Jags, Jets, Bengals and Broncos 265 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: in the AFC. That's a good question, Paul. I'd say 266 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: the Niners. I'd have to remove the Niners. That's that's 267 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 1: a really talented team. That's you know, it's just a 268 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 1: one year there with all the injuries. I can't see 269 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 1: the Falcons winning that division. Can't see the Jets winning 270 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: that division. Lions, yeahmi club. How about if you give 271 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: the Eagles to Shaun Watson? Well but I can't, Okay, Yeah, 272 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 1: I mean and even then, I don't think that's a game. 273 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 1: Is the poll question? It's not? Hey, how about I 274 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: get Aaron Rodgers to uh the Bears? Anything to make 275 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 1: the poll question better. But you know that isn't the 276 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 1: NFC South the one that always flip flops four to one, 277 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 1: four to one? Do you really think it's gonna like 278 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 1: the Buccaneers are gonna fall on their faces? I think Atlanta, 279 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 1: I mean, you look at it, No, I don't. But 280 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 1: I don't see why people are discounting Atlanta as a 281 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: you know, they have a veteran quarterback. I mean even 282 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: the Saints. Saints might be a little better than average, 283 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 1: but it feels like they're still going to be better 284 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 1: than Carolina. Better than the Falcons. Yeah, yeah, if Falcons 285 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: are kind of like a good bad team. They were 286 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: four and twelve last year, but they were only outscored 287 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: by eighteen points on the season. They were really strong, 288 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 1: but like a Broncos were five and eleven. They were 289 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 1: outscored by one hundred and twenty three points. The Oh 290 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: my gosh, the Jaguars were outscored by one hundred and 291 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: eighty six points. Last year. The Jets were outscored by 292 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 1: over two hundred points. That's only happened three times. Jeff 293 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 1: and Detroit.

Will the next Super Bowl winning 305 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: quarterback be older thirty three years or older or younger 306 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 1: than thirty three?

Everybody everybody is That is a 320 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 1: good Bowl question, though, even Packer fans are rooting for them. Okay, 321 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 1: so if I did hold Russell Wilson Junior the third 322 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:45,120 Speaker 1: thirty three to thirty two, or's he turning thirty three? 323 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 1: But if I if I gave you all the under 324 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: thirty threes and all the over thirty threes of who 325 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:58,880 Speaker 1: wins the Super Bowl this year?

Old guy, young guyon So starting the season 327 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 1: he would be with the younger guys? Is Russ an 328 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 1: old guy?

And I said, you're able 390 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,199 Speaker 1: to control the menu. I'm going to let you decide 391 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 1: what we have on Meat Friday. And I came in today. 392 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: I asked Tyler, the moderator, I said, what are we 393 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 1: cooking on meat Friday? And he said week Sauce. Wanted 394 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 1: pork roast, I believe deviled eggs and broccoli with parmesan 395 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:02,119 Speaker 1: on it. And there were a couple of groans on 396 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:06,880 Speaker 1: the other side of the glass. Yes, port tenerline. There's 397 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,720 Speaker 1: nothing wrong on port tenerline. It's pretty good. It's made incorrectly. 398 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 1: It could be horrendously dry. Now deviled eggs unless there's 399 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:15,160 Speaker 1: something I don't know I don't think there's any meat 400 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 1: in those. And then what was the other thing? Broccoli 401 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 1: with something parmesan parmesan and bacon parmisan and cheese Farmersan cheese. 402 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 1: It's not shred fast Friday. No. Like, I think this 403 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: is kind of uninspiring, like a trigger will make anything 404 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: taste better, but it just feels like a like a 405 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 1: little bit of a letdown, you know. It's one of 406 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 1: those am I regretting giving weeks our cameraman full control, 407 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,159 Speaker 1: total autonomy, like I treated him like he was Aaron Rodgers. 408 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: I said, go ahead, and you can pick whatever you want. 409 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: You take control. But you know there's some people who 410 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,439 Speaker 1: are okay with the choice. Here. Yes, broccoli trees and 411 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:58,120 Speaker 1: fresh lemon, herbs and parmesan for a refreshing summerside dish. 412 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 1: That sounds lovely. Rope us hardwood smoke. I think it's 413 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 1: the deviled eggs that I have a problem with. See 414 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: that's what this is about. I it's my favorite food 415 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 1: in the world. This is a consensus on deviled eggs. 416 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: They're amazing. It's eggs, mayonnaise and and egg yolks. Who 417 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:18,639 Speaker 1: doesn't like at deviled eggs? Poll?

Maybe 421 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,680 Speaker 1: we should have hotcakes instead. There's a reason it's not 422 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: the expression, isn't. Oh man, those go like deviled eggs. 423 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:39,879 Speaker 1: No rope, Oh man, we couldn't keep them. The houses 424 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,160 Speaker 1: like having deviled eggs, and there it flying off the shelf. 425 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 1: But if you bring hotcakes, does somebody say, oh man, 426 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: these are gonna go like deviled eggs. It's the greatest 427 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 1: thing since deviled egg? Yeah?

Man, mayonnaise is worthless, God, mayonnaise 434 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: is worthless.

There. 503 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,199 Speaker 1: We've all had those problems where we think we're hearing something. 504 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:09,120 Speaker 1: What's the clash rock the cans bar, rock the cash bar? 505 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:13,880 Speaker 1: Is that what that was? Yeah, Shale was at Clydesdale, 506 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 1: Sharif I'd have no idea, I always thought the word 507 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:21,400 Speaker 1: Clydesdale was a rockcass. But yeah, see, I thought when 508 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: I was a kid, I thought that Lionel Richie song 509 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 1: truly yeah, was about the character from Facts of Life. 510 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: Tutti t tut in. I had some people say, now 511 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 1: there's the song by the Bgs. More than a woman 512 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 1: and that that's the lyric. More than a woman, it's 513 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 1: also the title. And there are people saying that they 514 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 1: thought it was bald headed woman. Then I'm going, how 515 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 1: do you get bald headed woman? Bad woman? This came 516 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: up because was it James Harden? We thought he said braggery? 517 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: But he played that in three two one. Are you 518 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: surprised at how quickly it kind of came back to 519 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 1: you and you were back in the flow of things. 520 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 1: Not really that's like brag or anything, but I'm like, 521 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: yeah or anything. And then the question I thought he 522 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: was saying the Philippines, and then he said, in the 523 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 1: flow of things when you get back from the Philippines, 524 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: like a virgin touched for the thirty first time. I 525 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 1: think it's like a virgin touched for the first time. 526 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 1: But with Madonna, you're never quite sure. Are you here? 527 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 1: We are now in containers instead of here we are 528 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: entertain us?

There's a 531 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 1: lot of their songs though right I'm just singing along 532 00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: with them, But I don't know if I'm even close.

I can't get that 547 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 1: on my head. Now, that's bad moon Rya. There's a 548 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 1: bathroom on the rhyme his voice, it's hard to make 549 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 1: out the words sometimes. Yeah, all right, against the grain 550 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: schedule release annual tradition going back to at least two 551 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 1: thousand and sixteen. Alright, so here's what I'm gonna do. 552 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna play GM and I'm gonna give advice to 553 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: these teams based on the schedule release. It's gonna be 554 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 1: hard hitting. Okay, Pauli's Chicago Bears. They open up at 555 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 1: the Rams on Sunday night football. Now, you know how 556 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 1: much I love Andy Dalton, He's not great at night football. 557 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: In fact, he's not even very good at it. I 558 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 1: just don't watch Chicago to panic if this first game 559 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 1: against Aaron Donald the Rams goes bad, because the following 560 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 1: week Dalton plays the Bengals at home in Chicago, and 561 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: you know he's gonna get so up to is one 562 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 1: pm you could possibly get. You cannot panic on the 563 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton experience after one time they play earlier. Yeah, well, 564 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 1: there are nine thirty games, but the I think the 565 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: jack Oh no, the Falcons are all the nine thirty 566 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 1: AM games. Another situation, not depending The Cowboys schedule came 567 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: out and it opens up with at the Bucks and 568 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 1: at the Chargers. Obviously big ratings. I could just see, 569 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 1: you know how we are with the Cowboys, how we 570 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 1: overplay everything. Yeah, if that goes badly, you know ESPN 571 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 1: is going to August say it's get rid of microcore. 572 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 1: It's gonna go berserk. But then they have the second 573 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 1: easiest schedule in the league. So I just fear that 574 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 1: there's going to be a rush to judgment on the Cowboys. 575 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 1: Like I mentioned earlier, if they lose this Week one game, 576 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 1: are we all gonna make a consensus out of that? 577 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 1: But I think there's a referendum every Monday after a 578 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 1: Cowboy game. Yeah, and especially in September, there's going to 579 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 1: be that, oh my gosh, they're either better than we 580 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 1: thought or it's going to be another disastrous season. But 581 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: look at this start at Tampa Bay, at Los Angeles, 582 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 1: then they host the Eagles, they host the Panthers, they 583 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 1: host the Giants. So they could like start out oh 584 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 1: and two and still be just fine for the season. Yes, yeah, 585 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:03,160 Speaker 1: and they should be, but it depends on how those 586 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 1: players that they you know, they drafted, signed for free 587 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 1: agency on defense, Like that's the key. I mean, is 588 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 1: Dad going to be healthy? And I also think the 589 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 1: offensive line, which has been their strength, might be one 590 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 1: of their weaknesses right now. Yeah, pauland you go back 591 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 1: to last year. I was looking at the Week one 592 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,440 Speaker 1: last year, the Saints beat the Buccaneers and Brady had 593 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 1: two interceptions, and remember I think it was the head 594 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 1: coach said something like, well, well we'll talk to him, 595 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,240 Speaker 1: we'll get it worked out. He made some bathros. That 596 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: was the entire week. He spent the entire week on 597 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 1: Tom Brady being slow start. No, oh my god, did 598 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,320 Speaker 1: you hear what Bruce arians? He called out Tom Brady. 599 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,760 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick never did that. Remember when Brady held up 600 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 1: the wrong number of fingers against the Bear, it was 601 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 1: over then? Okay, one couple more advice Detroit Lions. My 602 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 1: advice is that you create a time machine and you 603 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 1: go back and you draft Justin Fields at number seven, 604 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,239 Speaker 1: because what the heck are they doing for Jared Goff here? 605 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 1: How on earth are they going to win any of 606 00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 1: these games? San Francisco, Bay, Baltimore, at Chicago, at Minnesota. 607 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 1: Their first win might be Bengals at home. This is 608 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:08,719 Speaker 1: a really hard spot for Jared Goff. He doesn't have 609 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 1: a lot of talent around him. I don't understand why 610 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,399 Speaker 1: they didn't take a quarterback and just start over. Well 611 00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:16,279 Speaker 1: they did get a lineman to protect him, yeah, I know, 612 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 1: but they're so lack of talent there. I know, Dan 613 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:22,360 Speaker 1: Campbell is awesome as a guest, but it just feels 614 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: like that is a pure rebuild. I don't quite understand 615 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 1: why they didn't take the quarterback. And lastly, my Pittsburgh Steelers. 616 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 1: So I was, when did that happen? Don't you? I 617 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 1: actually made a bet that they're gonna make the playoffs. 618 00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 1: I thought, yeah, the steel No, you said, if the 619 00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 1: Lions make the playoffs, you'll drive, will drive to Detroit 620 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 1: and let Jeff from Detroit throw a pie in your fit. 621 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 1: So I had said, everybody is under playing the Steelers, 622 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 1: like nobody is talking about nobody thinks they're gonna be good. 623 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 1: What wait, who is nobody? Honestly, I will show you 624 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 1: the random articles and tweets. There is no buzz on 625 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 1: the Steelers. But but who were the people who were 626 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:02,840 Speaker 1: issuing said tweets? NFL writers? They do not like the Steelers. 627 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:06,560 Speaker 1: I'll show you Vegas odds because everyone thinks the way 628 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:08,320 Speaker 1: they ended last year, they assume they're going to be 629 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,239 Speaker 1: bad again this year. Okay, well, they're also in a 630 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:15,719 Speaker 1: competitive division with the Ravens and the Browns. You're guaranteeing 631 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,320 Speaker 1: the Steelers make the playoffs? I was, but then I 632 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 1: saw their schedule, and now I'm going against the grain. 633 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:25,320 Speaker 1: I'm saying the Steelers, you're not you. You went against 634 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 1: your own grain. I double against the grain. I'm backing. 635 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:31,280 Speaker 1: I'm going with the grain here. The Steelers schedule is impossible. 636 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 1: Oh my god, they play everybody. It is so hard. 637 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,319 Speaker 1: Man Ben's gonna have to be the healthiest he's ever been. 638 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,520 Speaker 1: So I'm going with the grain and saying the Steelers. 639 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,719 Speaker 1: You hadn't heard. Nobody else had heard like kind of 640 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:45,799 Speaker 1: a general malaise about the Steelers. I don't know, there 641 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,680 Speaker 1: was nothing specific. Yeah, we got burned by the Steelers 642 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:50,840 Speaker 1: last year? Were they eleven? And oh yeah, anytime you 643 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:52,440 Speaker 1: get burned, your bail the next year. It's like the 644 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,319 Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons when they were up twenty eight three. People 645 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 1: kind of hollow. They were a hollow eleven and oh 646 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 1: big time. And then everyone likes the Browns. Remember when 647 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,800 Speaker 1: they struggled to beat that depleted Ravens team. It was 648 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 1: like on a Wednesday or yeah, and I went, oh 649 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,600 Speaker 1: my god, this is this is not a good team. 650 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,960 Speaker 1: Yes time they have the Bills, Seahawks, Packers, Chiefs, Chargers, 651 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:15,759 Speaker 1: just to name a few with the Steels and not 652 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 1: to mention obviously Ravens and Browns. Yes, Paul, Browns are 653 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:20,920 Speaker 1: a great example of where the NFL media jumps on 654 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 1: and jumps off two years ago. Browns were hot last 655 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,240 Speaker 1: year because they had to achieve the year before. Everyone 656 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 1: jumped off the Browns. Now everyone's back on because of 657 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,399 Speaker 1: their defensive to help it on it, I was off 658 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:34,319 Speaker 1: when everybody was on. I was on last year when 659 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,839 Speaker 1: everybody was off. Now I got to decide where am 660 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 1: I on the Cleveland Browns this year? Because there's gonna 661 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,439 Speaker 1: be a team where I'm gonna latch onto them. There's 662 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 1: gonna be a hot team here. But I got a 663 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 1: while before I give you my Super Bowl picks. All right, 664 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 1: when we come back a Lebron theory? Who has this theory? PAULI, 665 00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 1: I got it. Okay, it's not that hot. It's not 666 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,080 Speaker 1: lightly Yeah, but you told me to tease it. I 667 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,200 Speaker 1: did that. Yeah, but you're supposed to say, oh my god, 668 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:05,759 Speaker 1: coming on, just fake kid, Okay, got it, I know 669 00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 1: this theory. This is okay, it enough, it's hot enough, 670 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:12,319 Speaker 1: hot enough, all right, we have a hot enough take 671 00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:16,839 Speaker 1: on Lebron James.

It was on this date back in nineteen 686 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:09,880 Speaker 1: eighty three, Reggie Jackson became the first baseball player in 687 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:14,880 Speaker 1: history to strike out two thousand times. You imagine Reggie 688 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:19,319 Speaker 1: Jackson in two day's game where it's okay to strike out. 689 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:23,760 Speaker 1: He had a lot of bombs, But if it's okay 690 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:27,000 Speaker 1: to strike out and nobody got their money's worth. Quite 691 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,440 Speaker 1: like Reggie Jackson at the play because he was almost 692 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 1: like a corkscrew when he'd get done with his swing. 693 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 1: It was almost like he was like digging himself into 694 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 1: the ground there. But he struck out over two thousand times. 695 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,320 Speaker 1: He'd be he'd be welcome. They'd be like, Oh, you 696 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:45,839 Speaker 1: don't have to worry about putting the ball in play. 697 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:49,000 Speaker 1: Just swing as hard as you can. How's your launch angle? 698 00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:52,800 Speaker 1: All right, you're lebron theory. That's sort of hot. Paulie 699 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,120 Speaker 1: not really, it's more of a I'm commending him for this. 700 00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 1: You know, he got the ankle injury, the high ankle 701 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 1: injury in March. I think he missed about twenty games. 702 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 1: He came back in late April and tried a few 703 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:03,319 Speaker 1: and then went back and rested some more, and he's 704 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,400 Speaker 1: basically resting the rest of the regular season. I think 705 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:08,759 Speaker 1: the ankle injury was something for a while, but I 706 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:10,840 Speaker 1: think it's more of a play like, look, I'm missing 707 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 1: all these games. I don't need games to get back 708 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 1: into things. The guys played like two hundred and sixty 709 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,840 Speaker 1: playoff games his career thirteen hundred regular season games. I 710 00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:20,879 Speaker 1: believe he could have played the past couple of weeks, 711 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,400 Speaker 1: but there's no upside to it. The only upside is 712 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:26,360 Speaker 1: he re injures or wears himself down. He knows that 713 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:28,239 Speaker 1: all he has to do is be ready for May 714 00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:31,359 Speaker 1: and June. You don't want to be in that playing game, though. 715 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 1: I don't think he lacks the confidence in a playing game. 716 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 1: I would, yeah, one game, but I will look the 717 00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:40,880 Speaker 1: ankle injury. I'm sure stunk for a while. But my 718 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 1: guess is that he's one of those things that if 719 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 1: I can just you know, ride this out and get 720 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:47,239 Speaker 1: to the playoffs. Like James Harden said last night, they 721 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:49,800 Speaker 1: were talking about how rusty were he was rusty what 722 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:51,879 Speaker 1: I do for a living man? I'm I could play 723 00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:54,280 Speaker 1: basketball to drop of a dime. And I think Lebron 724 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:56,680 Speaker 1: thinks the same thing. Is that rest is way more 725 00:39:56,719 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 1: important this juncture than tuneups or getting used to my team. 726 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 1: They're gonna get used to me when I dominate about 727 00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:04,680 Speaker 1: two weeks. Yeah, but the Nets can afford to have 728 00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,719 Speaker 1: these guys not play. The Lakers can't afford to have 729 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:12,160 Speaker 1: Lebron sit out because you're you're in a danger zone 730 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 1: with that play in game and you've added even more 731 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 1: stress to the playoffs that you don't even need to 732 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:21,360 Speaker 1: add anymore. Here you're trying to defend your championship. And 733 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 1: I agree, I see what you're saying. Don't like it, 734 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:26,640 Speaker 1: But I don't think he's not shakable with stress. He's 735 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:29,279 Speaker 1: seen every They've been throwing stuff at him for fifteen years, 736 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 1: and he always ends up in the finals. I think 737 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 1: he has the supreme confidence that, hey, well I'm not 738 00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:37,840 Speaker 1: worried about him. I'm worried about you know, Kyle Kuzma, 739 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:41,400 Speaker 1: and you know Alex Caruso. Like now, all of a sudden, 740 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,320 Speaker 1: we got to play another game in high stress, and 741 00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:46,839 Speaker 1: are we playing against Steph Curry and we got to win, 742 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden the playoffs start. So 743 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,239 Speaker 1: I and I do think that this is going to 744 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:55,680 Speaker 1: be an issue. This ankle will be an issue throughout 745 00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 1: the playoffs. It doesn't go away. Those those injuries don't 746 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:02,880 Speaker 1: go away. Even James Harden with a hamstring. He might 747 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:07,320 Speaker 1: be healthy, but you know, once you start taxing yourself 748 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:08,919 Speaker 1: a little more and you have to play a little 749 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 1: bit more because the importance of a game. Those are 750 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 1: two guys that I'm really curious about once the playoffs started, 751 00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:20,200 Speaker 1: I saw this that the Nets beat the Spurs last night. 752 00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:25,319 Speaker 1: Eight different Nets scored in double figures, becoming the That's 753 00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:28,399 Speaker 1: the second straight game Brooklyn has done that, the only 754 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,000 Speaker 1: team in the league with three games in which eight 755 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 1: or more players scored at least ten points this season. Okay, 756 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 1: day last of the day of the day comes that. 757 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:48,920 Speaker 1: What stat of the day? Mo? And Arizona joins us.
