Carry us back at our station in 19 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 3: Los Angeles. At a Fox Sports Radio headquarters in LA 20 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,840 Speaker 3: myself and Jason Stewart, the show's executive producer, we are 21 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 3: in Western New York. We saw the Bills beat the 22 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 3: Dolphins last night thirty one to twenty one. We are 23 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 3: now broadcasting line from our Fox Sports radio affiliate hometown 24 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 3: thirteen forty WLVL in Western New York. Jason had four beers. 25 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 3: Bill scored thirty one points. Apparently there was some controversy 26 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 3: over at Josh Allen fumble. Some ladies screaming in my 27 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 3: ear for three hours, but it wasn't an annoying scream. 28 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 3: She was just excited about the game. Stood for three 29 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,400 Speaker 3: plus hours. My feet were sore aside from the walking. 30 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,319 Speaker 3: It was a great, great time we took in the 31 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 3: atmosphere and now spending more time Jason Scott family from 32 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 3: the area. So we are making the most of it 33 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 3: hanging out in Western New York on our Basically it's 34 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 3: like sixty hours in the Western New York area, so 35 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 3: there's gonna be Bills game, Niagara Falls, family hangout in 36 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 3: good times. 37 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 4: Can I address something I know that Bill's Mafia sounds cool. 38 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 4: Hashtag Bills MafA maybe the most recognizable brand fan brand 39 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 4: in the NFL. So I don't want to remove the name, 40 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,639 Speaker 4: but I will say this, it's a misnomer like mafia, right, 41 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 4: carry it kind of it, I guess it would insinuate 42 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 4: that that's kind of underhanded and criminal and you're dealing 43 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 4: with a bunch of bad guys, right. The Bills fans 44 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:23,239 Speaker 4: might be the most gentlest fans of any sport anywhere, 45 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 4: and that's why I kind of root for him. And 46 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 4: that's that's the feel that we got last night, like 47 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 4: they're just they're really nice, salt of the earth people 48 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 4: that really want their team to win, and there's just 49 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 4: something very wholesome about that. So the mafia thing almost 50 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,519 Speaker 4: paints a negative brush. They're very they're very good people. 51 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 5: Well, I mean, yes, you're one hundred percent correct on that, Jason, 52 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 5: But when you see images and YouTube videos of them 53 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 5: in there all there, I guess, and their glory and 54 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,079 Speaker 5: jumping on tables and drinking beers and crashing it, you know, 55 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 5: it kind of lends lends the voice towards that. But 56 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 5: you're correct, the Buffalo Beils fans are in and sweet 57 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 5: and actually really care about the product. So there is 58 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,359 Speaker 5: a little bit of a misnomer on on that. 59 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 3: I think Bill's mafia makes you think that if you 60 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 3: cheer against the team, they're gonna kill you and throw 61 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 3: you in a river, and they are not. 62 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 6: You are in New York, Dan, You're still in New York. 63 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 3: I don't think they're going to there. Weren't Dolphins fans 64 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 3: that made it out alive last night to Jason's point, 65 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 3: and I think that this this represents a bit what 66 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 3: he's talking about. Do you remember when it was the 67 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 3: Bills needed the Bengals to beat the Ravens to go 68 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 3: to the playoffs years back and they upset Baltimore. I 69 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 3: believe that, and the fan base of Buffalo donated to 70 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 3: Andy Dalton's troty. That's right, yep, because of like what 71 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 3: you know, like what they did and what it allowed 72 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 3: them to do to make the postseason, and that kind 73 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 3: of started that. And then I think other fan bases 74 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 3: have done the same, but it started with Buffalo, and 75 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 3: Buffalo has done it a couple of different times. A 76 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 3: very friendly atmosphere. Sure there may have been a guy 77 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 3: with a picture of OJ and Nicole on his T shirt. 78 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 3: I did put that on Instagram and X yesterday social 79 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 3: media if you want to check it out at Dan 80 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 3: Byer on Fox or Instagram, buiograms. But we had some 81 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 3: great images and videos from the night, and it was 82 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 3: just an experience that I was so glad we got 83 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,919 Speaker 3: to experience. And we wouldn't have been able to do 84 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 3: it next year because the stadium is new next year. 85 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 3: And I think Carrie, that's the thing where most people 86 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 3: would say, I want to go when the new stadium's there. 87 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 3: I want to see what the new stadium was all about. 88 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 3: And I just I felt differently about it, and I 89 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 3: wanted to see what the old facility was like because 90 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 3: we're never going to be able to see it again. 91 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 3: It was just really happy that we were able to 92 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 3: make the trip. And I think it's a good lesson 93 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 3: in life. Not to sound all raw, raw and motivational, 94 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 3: but when you have an opportunity to do something, and 95 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 3: maybe you don't always, but if you ever on the 96 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 3: fence about something, it's better to just do it. And 97 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 3: sometimes the reward from that and be ten to twenty 98 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 3: times as much as you were hoping for. That's what 99 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 3: I feel like this trip's been. 100 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, No, sounds amazing. Sounds like you guys had a 101 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,160 Speaker 5: really good time and are continuing to do that, And 102 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 5: I would just say, man, enjoy it. 103 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 6: Man. 104 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 5: You said something really really poetic there and it's just 105 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 5: this thing is short, man, Life is short experiences. 106 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 6: You know. 107 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 5: People think they come and go and they will reprise 108 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 5: themselves again eventually at some point, but you never know, man, 109 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 5: And so when you get that opportunity, yeah, go have 110 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 5: at it. 111 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 3: Ask Clayton Kershaw today, who probably is like, in a 112 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 3: blink of an eye, my baseball career is over now. 113 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 3: That blink lasted eighteen seasons, eleven All Star appearances, MVP Award, three, 114 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 3: Cy Young's World Series crown in twenty twenty, and I 115 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 3: know last year wasn't a part of the World Series team, 116 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,840 Speaker 3: but still like this career of Clayton Kershaw officially going 117 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 3: to be coming to an end at the end of 118 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 3: this season. And it's funny when I look at when 119 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 3: I look at Clayton Kershaw, I look at Clayton Kershaw 120 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 3: in this group of pitchers that we have in Major 121 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 3: League Baseball right now, where it's Justin Verlander and Max 122 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 3: Schurzer are kind of his contemporary, his peers Hall of 123 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 3: Fame caliber pitchers, but Verlander and schurz Aer have played 124 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 3: on multiple teams. I insures are even bounced around early 125 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 3: on in his career. There is something special, and there's 126 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 3: something unique about Clayton Kershaw getting the opportunity to be 127 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 3: able to spend his entire career not only just one franchise, 128 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 3: but an iconic franchise in baseball, in the Dodgers. And 129 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 3: so we knew that it was probably going to beat 130 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 3: Clayton Kershaw's last season. All signs pointed to that. But 131 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 3: when the official word came out that he did confirm 132 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 3: that he's going to be hanging them up after this year, 133 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 3: That's what I kind of thought about, is just the 134 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 3: longevity of what he was able to do, while other 135 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 3: peers who rose to the occasion like he did had 136 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 3: to find other routes to contain their success. 137 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, it's been a great story career. Obviously, 138 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 5: there's been moments of stuff that I'm sure he would 139 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 5: want back also in that journey as well, But I mean, 140 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 5: for him, great eighteen your career, got the World Series, 141 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 5: had really dominant performances, had dominant series up up, you know, 142 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 5: finally reached that strikeout landmark as well, And so I mean, 143 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 5: at this point, he's achieved everything that he could, I think, 144 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 5: and I suspected that this would be the last year. 145 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 6: Anyway. 146 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 5: But for him, kudos to a great career. You said it, 147 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 5: eighteen years at one spot. You just don't see that 148 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 5: often we had, you know, especially not contemporaries in that 149 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 5: sport at the position he plays. But if you could 150 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 5: wanted to, like, you know, marry it to another situation, 151 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 5: it'll be like, it'll be similar to a Dirk in 152 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 5: Dallas or a Kobe in La Like, it's that same 153 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 5: type of energy when you talk about Kershaw. 154 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 3: To me, it is the Doug Gottlieb Show on Fox 155 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 3: Sports Radio. Jason Stewart is a lifelong Dodger fan as 156 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 3: well an executive producer of the show. Not a surprise 157 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 3: that Kershell hung them up. 158 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 4: No, not a surprise, But seeing the way he's pitched, 159 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 4: how productive he's been this season, I thought he might 160 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 4: do it. Yet Yet again, he's been kind of on 161 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 4: this one year, one year contract for the last three 162 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 4: years or so, and it looks like he's actually healthy 163 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 4: going into the postseason. Knock on wood for crying out out. 164 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 4: He's still got one more start. But the thing that 165 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 4: sticks out about Clayton and what you just touched on, 166 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 4: like one team the entire career, it takes a combination 167 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 4: of two things. First of all, it takes an organization 168 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 4: that has bottomless pockets, so he was with the right 169 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 4: organization that could always pay him. And it took the 170 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 4: loyalty of and he's got that old school like loyalty. 171 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 4: You know, he had a sense of duty. His professionalism 172 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 4: is what I admire most about him. He's going to 173 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 4: be missed in that clubhouse. I know he couldn't pitch 174 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 4: it all last year in the World Series, but I 175 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 4: know his clubhouse presence was a major part of that championship. 176 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 4: So hopefully we can deliver one for him this year, 177 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 4: and hopefully he could actually pitch in a game. 178 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 3: That'll be awesome. Maybe I'm contradicting what I said at 179 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 3: the beginning and saying that in a blink of an 180 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 3: eye as eighteen year career is over, I think that's 181 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 3: maybe why he makes the decision, like there is a 182 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 3: lot to go. I think you could talk about it 183 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 3: as a former pro athlete, like there's so much that 184 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:05,839 Speaker 3: goes into getting ready for a season. Adding one more 185 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 3: season to Clayton Kershaw's tenure isn't going to do anything 186 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 3: for his legacy or anything. So I think that's probably 187 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 3: comes in the decision as well. Playing this season to 188 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 3: get three thousand strikeouts like he did, I think that 189 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 3: obviously was a goal. There's no denying that that you 190 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 3: could have gone on on top. Maybe you had fomo 191 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 3: because you weren't a part of the team that did 192 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 3: win it last year and you wanted to see if 193 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 3: you could run it back and be a part of that. 194 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 3: I can understand that, But now you've got three thousand. 195 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 3: There are no guarantees. We don't know if the Dodgers 196 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:35,680 Speaker 3: are the same team as they were a year ago. 197 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 3: By all accounts, they probably aren't, but you never know 198 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,079 Speaker 3: what can happen to the playoffs. So adding number nineteen 199 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 3: to a year, like even if he was at nineteen 200 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 3: now and you're like, hey, I want to put twenty 201 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 3: years in the big leagues, maybe that would be something. 202 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 3: But I don't think that there's anything added for him 203 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 3: to try to play next year unless he just really 204 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 3: wanted to play. There's no milestone. Adding another ring isn't 205 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 3: going to change his legacy. I think that all came 206 00:09:58,160 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 3: into play and probably making the decision. 207 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,679 Speaker 5: Two thousand and I know, I'm sure it was big, 208 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 5: and obviously we're seeing the last of a dying breed. Right, 209 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 5: pictures don't pitch this way. We got a couple of 210 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 5: pictures that are are up and comers that, you know, 211 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 5: if the trajectory holds up, which is a big if nobody. 212 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 5: I mean, it's it's so hard to accumulate eighteen years 213 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 5: as a pitcher. But you know, you got the Paul 214 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 5: Skins and guys like that who pitch, you know, pitch 215 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 5: pretty lengthy in their outings and could possibly have a 216 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 5: chance to reach this. But I mean we may be 217 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 5: seeing the last one for a while. Actually reached that 218 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 5: three thousand marks. 219 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 3: So how fast did eight years go for you in 220 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 3: the NFL? Oh? 221 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 5: I mean the blink of an eye literally, Like that's 222 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 5: you think about coming in as a as a rookie, 223 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 5: and you you know, you you start planning like I'm 224 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 5: about to do this, and I'm going to do this, 225 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 5: I'm going to achieve this, and then those things come 226 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 5: and next thing you know, I'm traded to Arizona six 227 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 5: years later and you're like, whoh blah, I'm on the 228 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 5: down end already. I mean, I'm in a place now 229 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 5: where I'm having fun playing football. But you know, starting 230 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 5: you know, Dad, we talked about this starting every game 231 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 5: and actually trying to do that over and over again. 232 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 6: Even eight years. 233 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 5: It's like, okay, I've done this too many times, So eighteen, 234 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 5: I know has to feel like an eternity for your body. 235 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 5: But as far as the time goes, man, I could 236 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 5: see why it feels so quick, because it really is. 237 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 5: And I mean just think about us, Dan, We've been 238 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 5: together working on Sundays for a year and just how 239 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 5: fast that went. We already on year two and it 240 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 5: seems like it was just the blink of an eye. 241 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,199 Speaker 4: Who are the who like quickly comes to mind? You 242 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 4: don't have to put too much thought into this. Yeah, 243 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 4: who quickly comes to mind is a guy that played 244 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 4: his entire career for one NFL team and had like 245 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 4: a lot of years in I guess Ray Lewis is 246 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 4: the one that comes to mind first for me. Okay, 247 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 4: And it won't come off quick to your mind. 248 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, it's always usually like a kicker or alignment, right. 249 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 3: I can think that. 250 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 6: I can think like Joe Thomas with Cleveland, right. 251 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 3: Like, yeah, I thought, and Anthony Munos. Yeah, like for 252 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 3: some reason Munos came to mind because think he's a 253 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 3: lifelong Bengal like that was along along those I don't. 254 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 6: Want a skill player, No no, no, no, we're able to 255 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 6: do it. 256 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 3: Jerry Rice didn't do it, Troy Aikman did. I mean, 257 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 3: and as we saw on the Cowboys documentary, and we 258 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 3: saw what happened in that documentary and how EMMITTT. Smith 259 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 3: felt about being an Arizona Cardinal and how he balled 260 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 3: his eyes out when they had to go to I 261 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,079 Speaker 3: shouldn't laugh at it, but like that's how emotional that 262 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 3: he got of that I shouldn't be in this spot 263 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 3: and that I shouldn't be in this locker room. It 264 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 3: wasn't supposed to turn out that way. And that's the 265 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 3: other part of it. Like you can look at Kershaw 266 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 3: and I mean it's, you know, fortunate, like it's zero 267 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,839 Speaker 3: point one percent club of players that can have that 268 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 3: sort of career, Like it doesn't end great for a 269 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 3: lot of athletes. 270 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, bo Bow just throughout Antonio Gates, which is a 271 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:45,559 Speaker 5: go win as well. 272 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:50,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, there's I mean, they're they're there, like there are, 273 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 3: but there's much more. I mean, Barry Sanders. When you 274 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 3: want to think of the rare skill position one but 275 00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 3: Barry Sanders retirement is just as much of a discuss 276 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 3: about when he did and how he did than his 277 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,320 Speaker 3: career at times because of how good it was. Did 278 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,319 Speaker 3: you know in your eighth season that you were done? 279 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 5: After no during the year, I mean seven eight, I 280 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 5: was already because even when I went to the league, 281 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 5: I told my mom I would play only four years. 282 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 6: This is how forward my mind was. 283 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 5: Football was obviously something I was really blessed to do 284 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 5: God given thing right, and so I had to honor that. 285 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 5: But I was always, you know, I gave my all 286 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 5: to it and really you know, put my focus in 287 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 5: and when it was there, but I saw a bigger 288 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 5: vision for myself. 289 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 6: So I never. 290 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 5: Really lived and died on the hill of being a 291 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 5: professional football player. So I mean, did I think I 292 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 5: would play fifteen years? Definitely? Not ever, But eight was 293 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:46,839 Speaker 5: like you start getting close to that, like a milestone 294 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,560 Speaker 5: of ten or something like that, And so I thought 295 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 5: about it. But then I fractured my back my last 296 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 5: year in Arizona and kept playing that whole year, but 297 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,079 Speaker 5: started to like start started to weigh the risk of 298 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 5: what it could be or what could possibly happen. So 299 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 5: for me, there were other factors why I didn't reach 300 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 5: tend but yeah, I mean I never thought i'd play 301 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 5: over that. 302 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 3: Though if I fractured my back, we'd be like, all right, 303 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 3: I'm done, we'll see you later. This has been fun. 304 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 3: This has been fun. Yeah, in an unimaginable decision as well, 305 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 3: because I think the retirement of a pro athlete is 306 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 3: you still have this whole other life to lead, Yes, 307 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 3: but the life that you led up to that point 308 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 3: is just no more. And it's different than retiring from 309 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 3: any job. Another reason why I hate when we compare 310 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 3: sports to real jobs. It just annoys me. But here's 311 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 3: another reason why it would annoy me. He is Carrie Rhodes, 312 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 3: the eight year NFL Vets All Pro starter since day one. 313 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 3: Jason Sewart's the executive producer of the show.

Speaking of Fox Sports Radio affiliates, Jared, 377 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 3: you're in Las Vegas, Carrie is in La I am 378 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 3: in Western New York is Jason Stuart and I took 379 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 3: in Bill's Dolphins last night. So we're at hometown thirteen forty, 380 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,919 Speaker 3: our Fox Sports Radio affiliate, fresh off of that Bill's 381 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:45,120 Speaker 3: win and having a good time last night in Buffalo. 382 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 3: I think they're gonna have a good time in Salt 383 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:50,359 Speaker 3: Lake City on Saturday. But like right after you guys 384 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 3: are done with the show, it's a morning kickoff between 385 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 3: the Utes and Red Raiders in a Big twelve showdown. 386 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 3: How do you think this one breaks down? In Salt Lake. Yeah, 387 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:00,639 Speaker 3: kind of a weird. 388 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,639 Speaker 8: Time spot, I think for this game. And it's also 389 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 8: interesting because neither team has really been tested so far. 390 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:07,640 Speaker 3: Right. 391 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,879 Speaker 8: Texas Tech has just been pummeling teams and they've covered 392 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 8: all their spreads. Utah is pulling away from Wyoming and 393 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 8: they're beating up on UCLA, and it just I don't 394 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 8: really know how good either of these teams are. 395 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 6: I do know Kyle. 396 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:21,919 Speaker 8: Whittingham's got an eighty percent win rate at home, so 397 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 8: he's been really good. In Salt Lake City, Baron Morton's 398 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 8: been fantastic nine hundred yards, eleven touchdowns to one pick, 399 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,920 Speaker 8: and they've got basically just a you know, a gluttony 400 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 8: of receivers, five of them through the first three games 401 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 8: that have over one hundred yards receiving one of them 402 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 8: is a tight end, so they're spreading it around and 403 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,880 Speaker 8: I think they're getting their money's worth from that very 404 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 8: expensive roster. 405 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 2: The question I have. 406 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 8: In this game, and it's a question that I don't 407 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 8: really think I can answer right now, and I think 408 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 8: this is why the lines kind of you know, hovering 409 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,680 Speaker 8: around that key number of three. You're giving Utah basically 410 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 8: the three for being at home. How does either team 411 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,360 Speaker 8: respond in a dogfight, because again, neither team has really 412 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:57,440 Speaker 8: played a tight game so far. I think this one 413 00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 8: is going to be more of a slugfest. That's the 414 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 8: kind of st that Kyle Whittingham likes to play. I 415 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,679 Speaker 8: really love the quarterback from Utah, the transfer from New Mexico. 416 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 8: He's been fantastic so far. I would lean Utah, but 417 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,679 Speaker 8: now that it's above that key number of three right now, 418 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 8: I have to lay three and a half points if 419 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,479 Speaker 8: you want to bet the uts. It kind of feels 420 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 8: like I kick your feet up and watch and see 421 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 8: which team really responds well to the adversity. 422 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 5: Jared, I want to talk about two teams in the 423 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 5: state of Florida that are going in different directions, the 424 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 5: Florida versus Miami game. This one, for me personally, I 425 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:31,400 Speaker 5: feel like it's a game where Miami has been flying high. 426 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,920 Speaker 5: They'd beat a really good Notre Dame team, but now 427 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 5: they're in the position as the favorite here and there 428 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 5: planing a Florida team that struggled out the gate, and 429 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 5: DJ Lagway hasn't played well. I expect him to bounce 430 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 5: back in this game, and I actually think Florida will 431 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 5: cover this game, but I also think they have a 432 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 5: chance to win. What do you think about this? 433 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 6: Wow, So here's the question that I have. 434 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 8: I do think Florida last week gave you the win 435 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 8: one from the gipper effort right like they were coming 436 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 8: off the USF loss. Everyone thought Napier was going to 437 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 8: get fired and they're going going into Death Valley at night, 438 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:03,920 Speaker 8: and everyone thought it was going to be a blood bath. 439 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 8: And they really battled in that game again, five interceptions, 440 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:08,679 Speaker 8: one of them returned for a touchdown, they had a 441 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 8: touchdown call back on a holding penalty, and they still 442 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 8: only lost the game by ten. Now, they didn't cover 443 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 8: the spread, but they were in that game and their 444 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 8: defense really battled. My question is can you raise your 445 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 8: level once again in now a spot where you know 446 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 8: you're probably out of the college football playoff race, you're 447 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 8: not gonna win the SEC Like it really does feel 448 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 8: like if Florida does quit, this would be the week four. 449 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 8: And here's here's a weird conspiracy theory. 450 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 3: Guys. 451 00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 8: So four games in the college football season is when 452 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 8: you burn. 453 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 3: Your red shirt year. 454 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 8: Florida is about to play its fourth game and if 455 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 8: the locker room thinks Napier's gone at the end of 456 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 8: the year. 457 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 3: The whole country does. 458 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 8: There's probably some players in that room that are gonna 459 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,360 Speaker 8: have to make some tough decisions, and I think that 460 00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,439 Speaker 8: is again this is tinfoil hat conspiracy theory type stuff, 461 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 8: but I do think there is a avenue where some 462 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 8: of those players are like, man, I am going to 463 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 8: go all out and burn one of my years of 464 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 8: eligibility in an nil era where I'm making a ton 465 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 8: of money for a guy that's dead man walking. So 466 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 8: I think that's kind of like the side story here. 467 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 8: But the main course in this game carry Miami's offensive 468 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,120 Speaker 8: line I think might be the best in college football there. 469 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 8: Their offensive line coach Alec Mirball is fantastic. They've got 470 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,959 Speaker 8: two I think first rounders on the offensive line. I 471 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 8: really think this is an old line. Francis Miaga, the 472 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 8: right tackle, the right card in Nez Cooper six six, 473 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 8: three point fifty. The right side of that line is 474 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,679 Speaker 8: a bulldozer. LSU's offensive line is not great, so I 475 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,680 Speaker 8: think Miami will control the tempo in this game. But 476 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 8: you're right, DJ Lagway when he plays to the ceiling, 477 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 8: is one of the best players in the country. The 478 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 8: problem is he's been banged up and he hasn't practiced 479 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 8: a whole lot. So I'm kind of lean into the 480 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 8: Miami side here. And if there are some players in 481 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 8: that Florida locker room that are kind of looking at 482 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:47,360 Speaker 8: that fourth game, say hey, I don't want to burn 483 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,120 Speaker 8: my year of eligibility for this napier guy, That's where 484 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 8: I think things could really get out of hand for 485 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 8: the Gators. 486 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 6: Wow. 487 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 3: Florida Miami is also a funky rivalry because it's not 488 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 3: a rivalry, but it is a rivalry. Like there are 489 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 3: times where they didn't play for years. Florida plays Florida State. 490 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 3: They've got their rivalry game with Georgia Miami and Florida State. 491 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 3: It's more of the rivalry. So it's yeah, it's a 492 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 3: weird one. When these two schools meet Michigan and Nebraska. 493 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 3: That's where I want to go next. I know you're 494 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 3: going to break this down, but if you had to 495 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 3: pick one of the two quarterbacks, who do you fancy 496 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 3: more on these sidelines? 497 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 6: Good question. 498 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 8: So I'll tell you right now, we're going to look 499 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 8: back on this summer, guys, and we're going to laugh 500 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 8: at all of the generational talent. Talk about Arch Manning 501 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 8: and the fact that we weren't mentioning Bryce Underwood in 502 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,880 Speaker 8: that same breath. Like, to me, Bryce Underwood is he's 503 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 8: the generational talent, that's the young quarterback that's ascending to 504 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:36,120 Speaker 8: the throne. 505 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 3: The problem is he. 506 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,360 Speaker 8: Hasn't yet done it on the road in a tough environment. 507 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 8: Right You saw what happened at Oklahoma, and it wasn't 508 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:43,679 Speaker 8: anything that he did wrong. 509 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:45,919 Speaker 3: I just think the kid gloves are still on. 510 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 8: They ran a very vanilla game plan in that game, 511 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,439 Speaker 8: and to be fair, at Oklahoma's defense is like a 512 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 8: torture chamber. So I don't think Nebraska is on that level, 513 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 8: but that Nebraska defense can still get after it. 514 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:56,120 Speaker 6: Now. 515 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 8: Riola's kind of on the other side of the coin. 516 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:01,359 Speaker 8: I think Dylan Riola to me, is a guy who's 517 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 8: kind of an NFL quarterback right now. The problem is 518 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 8: Nebraska a they struggle to win close games. They did 519 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 8: get over the hump against Cincinnati earlier this year, but 520 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,679 Speaker 8: very different test against the Michigan defense. And secondly, I 521 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 8: don't love the weapons around Nebraska, and that to me 522 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 8: is where I think Michigan has a couple of guys 523 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 8: that can really stretch the field. First of all, Justice 524 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 8: Haynes is a perfect fit for this Nebraska offense. He 525 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 8: did not fit well in Alabama scheme, but Michigan to me, 526 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 8: is an I Formation, pound the Rock kind of team. 527 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 8: So I think he fits very much better in ann 528 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 8: Arbor than he did in Alabama. 529 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 6: And I love this. 530 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 8: Donovan McCully, the transfer from Indiana, He's an Alpha six 531 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,160 Speaker 8: five two to fifteen over fifteen yards per catch. Now 532 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 8: for Nebraska, Dane Key has kind of come on a 533 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 8: little bit late six three two ten transfer from Kentucky. 534 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 8: He and again it was against Houston Christian, but you 535 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 8: finally started to see a little bit of explosion on 536 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:51,120 Speaker 8: this Nebraska offense. I think whichever quarterback kind of handles 537 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 8: their weakness is better, is going to win this game. 538 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 8: Can underwould handle the environment? And can Riyola, I mean, goodness, gracious, 539 00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 8: get over the hump in one of these close games, 540 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 8: because this kind of feels like a college football playoff 541 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 8: elimination game. I think the loser's out and I think 542 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:05,640 Speaker 8: the winners got a chance to really make him hey 543 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 8: in the big ten. 544 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 5: Jared one more from me, and this was an interesting game, 545 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 5: and I didn't know if it would be interesting coming 546 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 5: into the year. But number twenty two Albrin is heading 547 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,120 Speaker 5: to Norman to play Oklahoma, and both teams are three 548 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 5: and no. Alburn's ranked twenty second at the moment now 549 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 5: and then the rankings and looking pretty good. But I'm 550 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 5: a big John Matier fan. I think what he's doing 551 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 5: with Oklahoma and running the offense and just the toughness, 552 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 5: the moxie that he has about him. I'm really loving 553 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 5: his Oklahoma team, especially their defense. What do you see 554 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 5: happening in this situation in this game? 555 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,439 Speaker 8: I agree with you about Matier. The only issue I 556 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 8: see when I watch the tape is the mechanics are 557 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 8: a little bit wonky. He goes for it right. He's 558 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,159 Speaker 8: a hero ball kind of quarterback, and he's throwing a 559 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,920 Speaker 8: pick in each of his first three games. But he's 560 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 8: got that moxie right, that gamesmanship that I love as 561 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:51,400 Speaker 8: a quarterback. 562 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:52,440 Speaker 3: He will go for broke. 563 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 8: The interesting element here nobody knows Jackson Arnold better than 564 00:24:56,560 --> 00:25:00,719 Speaker 8: Brent Benaman, and that to me is disadvantage for j Arnold. 565 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 8: Another thing I noticed when I watched Auburn last week 566 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 8: against South Alabama. You are seeing Hugh Freeze run the 567 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,600 Speaker 8: show from the sidelines. He is in Arnold's ear up 568 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 8: until the snap, almost kind of dissecting what they're seeing. 569 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 8: This is only the third right, he's playing his fourth. 570 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:15,919 Speaker 3: Game in the new system. 571 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,239 Speaker 8: Right, you can't do that on the road in the 572 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 8: SEC and the. 573 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:20,199 Speaker 3: Check with me. 574 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 8: RPO offense sometimes can get a little bit off kilter 575 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 8: if you're not perfect with your reads and the other thing. 576 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,160 Speaker 3: Brett venables man, he will. 577 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:30,640 Speaker 6: Lie to you. 578 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 8: He will show you something at the snap, and then 579 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 8: right at the snap he will morph into a completely 580 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 8: different look. For example, they run a blitz package last 581 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 8: week against Temple. They brought the linebackers and drop both 582 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,480 Speaker 8: of their defensive tackles into coverage. And don't get me wrong, 583 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,239 Speaker 8: these defensive tackles are studs. Dominic Williams senior transfer from 584 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,440 Speaker 8: TCU six one three twenty five, and they got Jaydon 585 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 8: Jackson up and coming sophomore. He's a stud six two 586 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 8: three twenty So these D tackles can cover. But if 587 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 8: you are bringing linebackers and dropping D tackles and you're 588 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 8: running an RPOs over the middle, that's. 589 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 6: Gonna get picked off. 590 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:03,880 Speaker 8: Just like Peyton Thorn through an interception pick six last 591 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 8: year which decided this game. So I do feel like 592 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 8: Oklahoma's defense will have. 593 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 6: The edge there. 594 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:11,920 Speaker 8: But Jackson Arnold put on a lot of weight in 595 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,159 Speaker 8: the offseason. He is a factor with his legs, and 596 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 8: I think that's the difference for Auburn. Last year with 597 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,719 Speaker 8: Peyton Thorn, he was not a runner. Now Arnold, who 598 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 8: has bulked up a little bit, and you're really seeing 599 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 8: the quarterback power, the jet motion sweep. Those are factors 600 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 8: in Auburn's offense. But at the end of the day, 601 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 8: I'll take Venables over Hugh Freeze in this cat and 602 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 8: mouse game. 603 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 3: Jared Smith is our FSR betting analyst. You can find 604 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 3: him on x at Jared Smith Bets, the co host 605 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:40,639 Speaker 3: of Fox Sports Radios Countdown to Kickoff. Two things before 606 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,360 Speaker 3: I let you go. Number one, Crazy the thing because 607 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:47,160 Speaker 3: we talked about Michigan and Nebraska and USC Michigan State 608 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 3: playing a late night game, but the biggest game in 609 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 3: the Big Ten is Illinois Indiana. And if you would 610 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 3: have told me that years ago, in any year, I 611 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,719 Speaker 3: would have said you're crazy. But it is the battle 612 00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,439 Speaker 3: of the Eyes. Indiana the home two team in this 613 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 3: Where do you see that matchup in Bloomington going? 614 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 8: This one feels like an elimination game for the CFP. 615 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 8: Right if you just look at the schedules of these 616 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 8: two teams, then you got Illinois playing USC and Ohio 617 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 8: State at home, and in Indiana travels to Oregon and 618 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 8: Penn State. So I'm getting I'm getting two losses for 619 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 8: both of these teams down the road. So if you 620 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 8: lose this one, you're nine to three with no ranked wins. 621 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 8: I don't think that gets you into the colleg Football Playoff. 622 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,680 Speaker 8: Like this feels like a college football play in game, 623 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 8: and we'll see which team handles the environment better. I 624 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 8: like Fernando Mendoza, the quarterback for Indiana, of course transfer 625 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 8: coming in from Kyle last year. I think he kind 626 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:39,120 Speaker 8: of gives you a different element that you saw last 627 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:42,639 Speaker 8: year from this Indiana offense eleventh inefficiency so far, the 628 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 8: Illinois offense has been a little bit more. 629 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 3: Explosive this year. 630 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 8: Alt Meyer is twentieth inefficiency. I kind of feel like 631 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 8: this is a rock fight kind of game, and I 632 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 8: think you're catching almost a full touch now with Illinois, 633 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,120 Speaker 8: Like that's kind of the direction I lean, but I'm 634 00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 8: also surprised that Indiana's laying this many points in this spot. 635 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 8: So when the market kind of plays tricks on me, 636 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 8: I tend to stay away. But my lean is Illinois 637 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 8: because I think if you ask me what Brett Beelima prefers, 638 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 8: he prefers to be counted out. He prefers the underdog 639 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 8: role that suits his vibe better. And I think he'll 640 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 8: have his team up for this game. And let's be honest, 641 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 8: when we saw Indiana play these tight games against good 642 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 8: teams last year, it didn't go so well. 643 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,400 Speaker 3: And what about this date? I saw on Twitter? What 644 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 3: what happened? Some real ghosts ya, because she's huging you 645 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 3: to try to understand, like what her feelings were, what 646 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 3: went on in your love life? 647 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 6: Wha what? Yeah? So curious I went. 648 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 8: So I took a girl out for a second date 649 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 8: last Saturday. Nice dinner, Greek meal, We're really nice group 650 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 8: spot here in town. Shout out Ili a fantastic Greek 651 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 8: restaurant in Summerland, And I thought it was going great again. 652 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 8: Second date and everything went well. I did the whole 653 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 8: gentleman thing. I opened the doors, I paid for the dinner. 654 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 8: You know, little good night kiss, and I thought everything 655 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,239 Speaker 8: went great. And again it was our second date, so 656 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,280 Speaker 8: she went out with me once for coffee, then agreed 657 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 8: to a second date and everything went well. And then 658 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 8: I texted her again this week to hang out, and 659 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 8: she didn't even hear it, like crickets, It didn't even 660 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 8: get like the I had a great time, but I 661 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 8: think we should be friends text like literally no response 662 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 8: at all, and we kind of run in the same 663 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 8: gym circles. 664 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 6: And I reached out to her friend.

In the late window. 714 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 3: Thank you very much, Isaac, that we have Carrie, that 715 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 3: you and I will be live on end Zone Radio 716 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 3: on Fox Sports Radio five Eastern, two Pacific. Bears Cowboys 717 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:27,959 Speaker 3: is the headliner, but I'm not sure if it is so. 718 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 3: If you look at this late window that we've got Carrie, 719 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 3: Saints at Seahawks, You've got the Niners taking on the Cardinals, 720 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 3: and you've got the Broncos against the Chargers. Best game 721 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:42,719 Speaker 3: of that late window of those four is what for me. 722 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 5: I'll be paying attention to that Broncos Chargers game. And 723 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 5: I think a lot of people are jumping on the bandwagon. 724 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 5: I said the Charges would win that division coming into 725 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 5: the season. Right now, they've had two really good wins. 726 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 5: Now they're playing a team in the Broncos, who a 727 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 5: lot of people also think can have a lot of 728 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 5: success this year. So it's gonna be a big one. 729 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 5: The Broncos are coming off with disappointing loss last week, 730 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 5: and so will they were their level will play rise 731 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 5: for this game or will the Chargers show their dominance. 732 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 5: I'm really excited to see that game. 733 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 3: You know, this Arizona team, as we've said, has the 734 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 3: best opportunity of any teams to start two and zher 735 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 3: and they catched in Carolina last week. The game almost game, 736 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 3: gave the game away. Then they had the Saints, who, 737 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 3: as I mentioned, faced the Seahawks in this late window. 738 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 3: Cardinals beat the Saints in Week one, Niners beat the 739 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 3: Saints in Week two. So when you have these two 740 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 3: teams here and what is a competitive division? Rams playing 741 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 3: good football. They're off to a two and zero start. 742 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 3: Seahawks just won in Pittsburgh. Yeah, you're gonna have some 743 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 3: titan you know, these Titan snow pun and tended with Tennessee. 744 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 3: But you've got these Titans of the NFC in an 745 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:50,400 Speaker 3: early season matchup with brock Purty maybe not fully healthy. 746 00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 3: I that Arizona forty nine Ers game because I think 747 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 3: it could really vault one of those teams. I know 748 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 3: we expected something with the forty nine Ers this year. 749 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 3: You know how much I love what Jonathan It's done 750 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 3: with Arizona. But you get the three and zero with 751 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 3: the division win over those two teams. Specifically, if it's 752 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 3: Arizona you go to San Francisco and win, that could 753 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 3: really pay dividends. Listen, Tom Brady and Kevin Burkhard are 754 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 3: gonna be on the call on Fox between the Bears 755 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:15,360 Speaker 3: and Cowboys, but there's just some really good football in 756 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 3: that late window. 757 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, the Bears Cowboys when I mean yeah, I mean 758 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:22,160 Speaker 5: I know the storylines are there, the quarterbacks and whatnot, 759 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 5: But yeah, that one for me will probably probably rank 760 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 5: out of the ones we just named. It would be 761 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 5: third on that list for me to watch. So I 762 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 5: understand what you're saying, and the fact that there are 763 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 5: most of these are division games as well, it's gonna 764 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 5: be really cool to see. Well that Cowboys Bears is not, 765 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 5: but it's the forty nine ers and Cardinals and the 766 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 5: Broncos and charges. That just means a lot more to me. 767 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 3: And that's it, you know, my Seahawks playing against the Saints. Unfortunately, 768 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 3: I am a realist. I understand that that is I'm 769 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 3: the under undercard. Like that's about at two pm in 770 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 3: the afternoon when they go to the rink at nine 771 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 3: thirty at night in Las Vegas.

Taking in 835 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 3: that Bills game last night, and they took care of 836 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,319 Speaker 3: us nicely here at our affiliate as well, So it's 837 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 3: been fun. 838 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 6: Is it only a family, Dan? Or are you excited 839 00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:51,560 Speaker 6: to see me Sunday as well? 840 00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 3: And Carrie second and Isaac loh and Crown as well. 841 00:36:55,360 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 3: Who's given us the press? The press, the headlines of 842 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 3: the day, who's in and out and whatnot? Isaac? What's happening? Dan? 843 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:09,239 Speaker 9: Top story? Popular former NFL All Pro Carrie Rhodes horrified 844 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 9: listeners when he revealed that he takes his shoes off 845 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 9: on airplanes. Actually, Carrie could never horrify us about anything. However, 846 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:22,160 Speaker 9: there was a coup of sorts in Atlanta as the 847 00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:28,360 Speaker 9: Falcons released longtime placekicker Young Way coup and signed Parker 848 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:32,760 Speaker 9: Romo not to be confused with Tony Romo or Parker Posey. 849 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 9: I suppose to the active roster. After Romo's five for 850 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:40,799 Speaker 9: five performance on field goals in last Sunday's win at Minnesota. 851 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:45,080 Speaker 9: Young Way Coup, a former pro bowler, was actually with 852 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:49,920 Speaker 9: Atlanta so long he was the third leading score in 853 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,799 Speaker 9: the entire Francise history of the Falcons. He'd been their 854 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 9: placekicker for the last six plus seasons. Wow, what have 855 00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 9: you done for me lately? 856 00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 3: I guess yes, seriously. I love the shot of Parker 857 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:03,960 Speaker 3: Romo with Bjon Robinson and Leonard Floyd after their win 858 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 3: against the Vikings where he was basically introducing himself to 859 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 3: everybody because they didn't know who he was, right. Obviously, 860 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 3: they were happy enough with the performance to keep him 861 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 3: around because yeah, as we as we found out, young 862 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:15,920 Speaker 3: Waiku had his place in Atlanta, but that eras come 863 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:16,399 Speaker 3: to an end. 864 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 5: He didn't even know who Floyd was. So that's that 865 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,439 Speaker 5: tells you how new he was to the Saint. 866 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:25,959 Speaker 9: The zero to two defending AFC champion Kansas City Chiefs 867 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:30,160 Speaker 9: officially listing receiver Xavier Worthy as questionable for Sunday Night 868 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 9: football against the New York Giants due to the shoulder 869 00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 9: injury that Worthy sustained when he dislocated it in a 870 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:39,720 Speaker 9: collision with teammate Travis Kelcey in the season opener against 871 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:40,720 Speaker 9: the Chargers in Brazil. 872 00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:45,040 Speaker 3: In an unrelated story, Brian Dables decisions also listed as 873 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 3: questionable for the New York Giants. I'm sorry they joked 874 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 3: that Chiefs can't. There's no way that they follow the 875 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 3: oh and three. 876 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 6: I'm telling you, Dan, I've already called it. That's my 877 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:55,600 Speaker 6: upset of the week. All right. 878 00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 9: We'll be tracking that on Monday, for sure. Check the 879 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 9: podcast final him in the NBA Miami Heat All Star 880 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:07,200 Speaker 9: guard Tyler Hero had successful left ankle surgery. He has expected, however, 881 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,840 Speaker 9: to miss approximately eight weeks recovering, which would mean he 882 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 9: would miss the start of the regular season. 883 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,319 Speaker 3: May not be an awful thing, save some wear and 884 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 3: tear early on, and then play later in an Eastern 885 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 3: conference that we think could be up for grabs. 886 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 5: I hate when those guys wait till the last minute 887 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:24,800 Speaker 5: to get surgery done. They know they're already hurt, and 888 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 5: get it done before. 889 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 6: And that's the press. They get out there and pressed. 890 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:29,800 Speaker 2: That was the press. 891 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:33,120 Speaker 3: Carrie and I'll be back together on Sunday five Eastern 892 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:36,320 Speaker 3: on end Zone.
