You see what we have right 0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:05.040 in front of us on YouTube. All right, now, let's 0:02:05.680 --> 0:02:10.639 get right into this John Harbaugh. They're already calling him 0:02:10.720 --> 0:02:15.680 Jersey Johnny, and I think the question you posted me 0:02:16.360 --> 0:02:18.840 in the kitchen before the show is the right one. 0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:26.280 It's hey, slow down or get pumped up? Slow down 0:02:26.360 --> 0:02:30.040 or pump up when it comes to Harbaugh, slow your role, 0:02:30.520 --> 0:02:33.120 as Rich Davis loves to say. If he's Jersey Johnny 0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:35.400 wouldn't it be take it East, dak you oh there 0:02:35.440 --> 0:02:39.160 you go, slow down or we know, take it east 0:02:39.280 --> 0:02:42.320 or pump it up. Yeah, that's perfect so Jersey. Yeah, 0:02:42.400 --> 0:02:45.480 because you take it easy, you pump your fist and excitement, 0:02:45.600 --> 0:02:49.440 take it ease. I listen, there's a headline. I'm looking 0:02:49.480 --> 0:02:53.200 around the room. We always had the different sports networks on. 0:02:54.000 --> 0:02:59.639 I'm seeing headlines like Giants immediate playoff contender to that 0:03:00.600 --> 0:03:04.400 take it East. But we've seen quick turnarounds in the NFL, 0:03:04.520 --> 0:03:08.000 and we've seen even this year's Anybody season, we've seen 0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:12.040 potential and excitement with the Giants before all the injuries. Yeah, dude, 0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:16.320 Scataboo and Dart were difference makers, neighbors, and you throw 0:03:16.360 --> 0:03:18.920 good coaches in there. And here's my theory. I get it, 0:03:19.000 --> 0:03:21.400 Take it East right, they'll be prisoner of the moment. 0:03:21.680 --> 0:03:23.760 But first of all, Giants fans need something to be 0:03:23.800 --> 0:03:27.639 excited about. Harbaugh is one of the greatest gets in coaching, 0:03:28.560 --> 0:03:30.640 great fit for New York. I can't be great there, 0:03:30.680 --> 0:03:32.720 but hold on. This is my point. This is why 0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:36.400 I say stay pumped up like you're Paul d on 0:03:36.440 --> 0:03:40.440 the Jersey Shore. Pump your fist, and excitement. Habbu's here 0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:44.280 because I think he's he's the bait, the shiny bait 0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:47.640 that that the Giants need to bring more exciting players 0:03:47.680 --> 0:03:50.560 to New York or New Jersey. Take it East, all right, 0:03:50.680 --> 0:03:52.160 I say take it East, and I'll tell you why. 0:03:53.360 --> 0:03:58.320 Because while John Harball is a generational guy, a guy 0:03:58.360 --> 0:04:02.560 that could really make a different I mean, it's not 0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:05.240 like he was coaching a bunch of hobos and fell short. 0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:08.960 He didn't make the playoffs with Hobo. The Ravens, who 0:04:09.080 --> 0:04:12.960 are are pretty you know, pretty well on paper, We 0:04:13.640 --> 0:04:16.280 many of us chose the Ravens to represent the AFC 0:04:16.640 --> 0:04:18.600 in the Super Bowl. Bell fit and you know that 0:04:18.880 --> 0:04:21.000 you're not doing anything different on Fox Sports that he 0:04:21.040 --> 0:04:25.240 did at ESPN. But what it's working here why fit fit? 0:04:25.640 --> 0:04:27.880 So I'm just throwing that out there, something to think about. 0:04:28.320 --> 0:04:31.560 I'm just saying, Jersey, Johnny. I guess listen, if you're 0:04:31.600 --> 0:04:34.880 a Giants fan and you went four and thirteen, there 0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:37.600 should be a yeah, we're pumped up, Like what's the alternative? 0:04:37.640 --> 0:04:40.440 You go with some coach that no one cares about. 0:04:40.720 --> 0:04:44.599 You got John Harbaugh and it happened quickly, which means 0:04:44.880 --> 0:04:47.520 which means like this way, because the first report I 0:04:47.560 --> 0:04:50.480 heard was the Giants. We actually mentioned it on the 0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:53.240 Stree Show. The update was the Giants were going so 0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:57.159 aggressive at Harball, it's likely that something's going to happen. 0:04:57.200 --> 0:05:00.279 Then we heard, well, he's not even gonna be with 0:05:00.279 --> 0:05:03.440 the Falcons now because they're pushing it so hard. And 0:05:03.480 --> 0:05:06.720 then it seemed like minutes later, Oh, it was official. 0:05:06.839 --> 0:05:09.040 It was Zine had the Falcons for that girl. That's like, 0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:11.760 you could do anything to me. Yeah. So and he 0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:16.039 was like, eh, yo, I got a question for you guys. 0:05:16.279 --> 0:05:19.960 I know Jay Stu is still in the studio and 0:05:20.000 --> 0:05:24.479 he's a big bachelor guy. And I always find it 0:05:24.560 --> 0:05:27.760 interesting on a show like a dating show like The Bachelor, 0:05:27.839 --> 0:05:31.040 where the guy has to pretend he's into a lot 0:05:31.040 --> 0:05:33.719 of these girls for the I guess, for the ruse 0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:36.720 and the optics and the optics of the show. But 0:05:36.839 --> 0:05:38.479 Comino and I agree, if you put us in a 0:05:38.520 --> 0:05:42.360 room of twenty five good looking, well rounded women, oh 0:05:42.400 --> 0:05:44.240 I narrow it down to five. Real you can narrow 0:05:44.279 --> 0:05:46.720 it down to five and then maybe you know, get 0:05:46.720 --> 0:05:48.720 to know those five and be like, oh, choose my match. 0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:52.000 But I happened to you that time of the nets dancers. Remember, Yeah, 0:05:52.040 --> 0:05:55.440 immediately you could be pleasantly surprised. Though someone else might 0:05:55.480 --> 0:05:57.000 make the cut. Yeah, someone that you might not be 0:05:57.360 --> 0:06:00.560 initially attracted to. Her personality shines, But for the most 0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:02.920 part those shows, you really could be like, all right, 0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:06.240 you twenty Yeah, I'm sure you're amazing, but not for me. 0:06:07.480 --> 0:06:11.360 Harbo must have really just did the anti Bachelor where 0:06:11.360 --> 0:06:14.800 he's like, listen, I know, no, Ruse Atlanta, I'm not 0:06:14.839 --> 0:06:18.920 coming there, Hey Cleveland, save your breath, Like he might 0:06:18.960 --> 0:06:22.360 have really just took the approach of listen, New York, 0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:24.039 if you gotta roll out the red carpet, you're sort 0:06:24.080 --> 0:06:25.600 of where I want to go, So I don't want 0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:28.640 to waste anyone else's time. Let's get it done, and 0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:30.800 that way we could all just move along with our day. 0:06:31.000 --> 0:06:34.520 But I'm also sure that Dark gave the thumbs up 0:06:34.600 --> 0:06:37.520 and vice versa. I'm sure that was like, yeah, we're 0:06:37.560 --> 0:06:39.599 willing to do this, and I believe in this kid. 0:06:39.640 --> 0:06:42.120 I think he's great. I'm sure he believes in some 0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:44.440 of these young players and some ofa moves that there 0:06:45.200 --> 0:06:48.240 willing and promising to make to make his coaching there 0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:51.680 go smoother. So I got a question for he had 0:06:51.720 --> 0:06:54.080 a list of demands. Yeah, he said he wanted a 0:06:54.080 --> 0:06:57.280 fish tank. He wanted Taylor Ham sandwiches every morning in Jersey. 0:06:57.800 --> 0:07:00.000 Do you think every one of those demands got met? 0:07:00.200 --> 0:07:02.880 And green M and m's I would imagine if he 0:07:02.920 --> 0:07:05.200 was throwing it out there like that, right, Yeah, if 0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:07.160 he said, Danny, he wanted twenty MILLI at least a 0:07:07.279 --> 0:07:14.080 year plus ten million for his personnel and GM didn't 0:07:14.080 --> 0:07:16.920 he want to some one hundred grand bars always on 0:07:17.000 --> 0:07:20.320 standby or something, some little stock of baby oil, one 0:07:20.400 --> 0:07:21.240 hundred grand bars. 0:07:21.400 --> 0:07:24.840 He wanted a New York Giants helmet overturned with filled 0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:27.600 with ice cream, and nude pictures of b Arthur Old. 0:07:27.480 --> 0:07:30.800 Toilet seats and black toilet paper. So all of these 0:07:30.880 --> 0:07:34.840 and reportedly rich. Remember in Baltimore, he wanted his OC 0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:38.040 Monkin to stay in place, and the front office wasn't 0:07:38.080 --> 0:07:40.920 with that. And the news is that Monkin's going to 0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:44.360 come over with him to the Giants. Well that's monk 0:07:44.400 --> 0:07:49.080 and unbelievable. So you saying you don't want my guy, 0:07:49.280 --> 0:07:50.680 I'm going to take my guy with me. 0:07:50.880 --> 0:07:53.200 So I got a great question to start the show. 0:07:53.240 --> 0:07:54.880 With I mean we were at ten minutes ten, but well, 0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:57.360 the first question is and feel free to chime in 0:07:57.400 --> 0:07:59.640 eight seven to seven ninety nine on Fox at Covino 0:07:59.680 --> 0:08:02.280 and Rich at Fox Sports, readio, on social media, or 0:08:02.320 --> 0:08:04.559 the live chat. Like we said Covino on Rich FSR 0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:06.640 on YouTube, we get that running. We changed it from 0:08:06.680 --> 0:08:10.280 slow down or pump up to take it ease or 0:08:10.520 --> 0:08:14.360 pump it up. You gotta pump it up. Do you 0:08:14.400 --> 0:08:17.080 pump your fist and excitement or do you take any 0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:21.679 you're a Giants fan, do you pump it up oho 0:08:22.240 --> 0:08:26.520 humbos here or do you say take it ease? You're 0:08:26.600 --> 0:08:28.360 four and thirteen. There's still a lot of work to 0:08:28.400 --> 0:08:32.880 be done. It's gtch Bro, Jim Tanning Harbaugh. I'll say this, 0:08:33.400 --> 0:08:37.400 even though the Giants have won two Super Bowls, I'm 0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:40.280 not going to compare them to the lowly Marlins, but 0:08:40.360 --> 0:08:45.680 there is an analogy in place. The Marlins are always 0:08:45.679 --> 0:08:48.439 sort of like mediocre and not good. But back in 0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:51.280 the late nineties early two thousands, like every so often 0:08:51.360 --> 0:08:53.120 the Marlins just found a way to win a World 0:08:53.200 --> 0:08:55.920 Series and it would erase all the suck. Yeah, but 0:08:55.960 --> 0:08:58.839 you're forgetting that the season started with Russell Wilson. It's 0:08:58.880 --> 0:09:02.040 not like Dart was the guy from the start. You know, 0:09:02.120 --> 0:09:05.000 it was a it was a difficult road to climb. 0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:07.920 Scataboo was really bringing it and then got hurt. You're 0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:11.200 sort of making my point point is the Giants because 0:09:11.240 --> 0:09:13.560 they beat the undefeated Patriots, and because they beat the 0:09:13.600 --> 0:09:15.760 Giants the pin they beat the Patriots again in the 0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:18.960 Super Bowl and eli won two. We forget that. There 0:09:18.960 --> 0:09:22.440 are plenty of years where the Giants were average or stunk. 0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:26.320 Like the Giants, the analogy would be a team like 0:09:26.440 --> 0:09:29.520 Drew Brees and Sean Payton and the Saints. We're probably 0:09:29.520 --> 0:09:32.320 twelve and four and thirteen and three, eleven and five 0:09:33.280 --> 0:09:36.560 every year and they just fell short. The Giants were 0:09:36.600 --> 0:09:39.360 good every so often, but when they were good, they 0:09:39.440 --> 0:09:41.920 just happened to win the Super Bowl. So the Giants 0:09:42.760 --> 0:09:47.480 have never really had long term success. And that's a fact. 0:09:47.640 --> 0:09:50.000 I know this. We lived in New York. Giant fans 0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:52.040 were always frustrating. You'd be like, yeah, but you want 0:09:52.040 --> 0:09:53.840 a super Bowl. They're like, yeah, but when we don't 0:09:53.840 --> 0:09:55.319 want a super Bowl, we're not. 0:09:55.800 --> 0:09:58.920 They want the number one seed, they want the division title, 0:09:58.920 --> 0:10:00.800 they want the home field advance and then maybe they'd 0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:02.880 squeeze in and they'd reel off wins and go win. 0:10:03.000 --> 0:10:04.520 Yeah. You know ho. Now I got to just prove 0:10:04.600 --> 0:10:08.280 my own point hold on Giants, the fact this Giant 0:10:08.320 --> 0:10:11.720 season by season NFL, because you'd be shocked at like how. 0:10:11.520 --> 0:10:14.000 Long they've stun Well, no, they how were like nine 0:10:14.040 --> 0:10:15.800 and seven when they won a Super Bowl. I think 0:10:15.800 --> 0:10:17.480 they were a wild card. They were at nine and seven. 0:10:17.800 --> 0:10:20.600 You are, Danny g Iowa, Sam, you guys are honey. 0:10:20.720 --> 0:10:22.600 I get the credit, you get the hundred percent right on. 0:10:22.640 --> 0:10:24.680 But let's go to the two thousands. 0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:29.240 In the late nineties, all right, the Giants, the New 0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:32.679 York Football Giants. When they won the Super Bowl, they 0:10:32.679 --> 0:10:34.679 were ten and six. The year before that they were 0:10:34.679 --> 0:10:36.800 eight and eight. Then they were twelve and four and 0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:38.520 lost right away in the playoffs. Then eight and eight, 0:10:38.559 --> 0:10:40.920 ten and six, nine and seven, seven and nine, six 0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:43.920 and ten, six and ten, eleven and five, three and thirteen, 0:10:44.000 --> 0:10:46.319 five and eleven, four and twelve, six and ten, four 0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:49.760 and thirteen, nine and seven and one, six and eleven, 0:10:49.800 --> 0:10:55.040 three and fourteen, four and thirteen. The Giants have stunk 0:10:55.080 --> 0:10:57.199 for the most part for a while. They're not good. 0:10:57.280 --> 0:11:03.000 It just we get it's uh, you almost get it's 0:11:03.000 --> 0:11:06.960 an illusion because of those Giants beating the Patriots moments 0:11:06.960 --> 0:11:10.880 that are historic other than that they stink. So Harborough 0:11:10.920 --> 0:11:13.240 could be the first got to bring them long term 0:11:13.280 --> 0:11:17.280 success in a long time. So here's part two of 0:11:17.280 --> 0:11:19.360 the question. Part one, I love Kamino. Which is your 0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:23.240 Do you pump it up Jersey style Jim Tanning and 0:11:23.320 --> 0:11:28.240 Harbor or do you take it East Soprano style? Part 0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:36.800 two of the question, what suck disappears? First? The Giants 0:11:37.720 --> 0:11:43.320 or the Raiders. These are two teams that stink, but 0:11:43.480 --> 0:11:49.240 both teams that on paper, after the offseason and coaching 0:11:49.280 --> 0:11:53.280 and draft picks could very well turn it around. Who 0:11:53.320 --> 0:11:57.880 do you think could have their suck disappear? Quicker? Okay, 0:11:57.960 --> 0:12:01.160 true question because we don't know how the chips are 0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:03.640 gonna fall with the Raiders yet. As far as coaching, 0:12:04.240 --> 0:12:06.760 I mean, we got one Domino, one Domino fell. We 0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:10.640 know that Harbaugh in New York. We assume Mendoza will 0:12:10.640 --> 0:12:13.320 be a Raider who's coaching the Raiders. Who you give 0:12:13.360 --> 0:12:15.520 me a good educated guest on who you think it's 0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:18.200 gonna be, and then I'll give you my answer, Let's 0:12:18.200 --> 0:12:20.520 say it's Kevin Stefanski. I don't know, Danny. You're a 0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:22.559 Raiders guy, so you probably have your updates. What do 0:12:22.600 --> 0:12:22.839 you think? 0:12:22.920 --> 0:12:26.079 Yeah, the Raider beat writers right now are guessing Clint 0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:27.319 Kubiak is the leader. 0:12:27.840 --> 0:12:36.280 So Clint Kubiak, offensive minded guy, Tom Brady in the building, Mendoza, 0:12:36.679 --> 0:12:39.520 Rock Bowers, genty and like we said, you spend every 0:12:39.720 --> 0:12:42.439 piece of equity or draft picks or free agent money 0:12:42.760 --> 0:12:46.800 on line line line line line, line, line, line line, 0:12:46.800 --> 0:12:51.480 maybe a receiver, line line line, line, line line. Danny Well, 0:12:51.600 --> 0:12:53.800 I like this answer, but I think both of them 0:12:53.840 --> 0:12:56.240 are going to throw around, throw a corner in there. 0:12:56.280 --> 0:12:58.400 And Rich you're acting like it's impossible. But we saw 0:12:58.440 --> 0:13:00.920 it with the Bears worse, we saw it with the 0:13:00.960 --> 0:13:04.080 Patriots worse. The first all takes is the right connection, 0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:06.720 the right chemistry, the right coaching with the right quarterbacks 0:13:07.000 --> 0:13:10.080 people to develop. I think the Giants and the Raiders 0:13:10.160 --> 0:13:12.520 might have a good turnaround next season, but I think 0:13:12.760 --> 0:13:15.280 based on what we know so far, the Giants is 0:13:15.320 --> 0:13:17.840 the answer, Giants over Raiders as far as who improves 0:13:17.840 --> 0:13:20.680 the most. The Giants have lost ten or more games 0:13:20.880 --> 0:13:24.640 in eight of the last ten seasons. They're double digit losers. 0:13:24.679 --> 0:13:27.120 But we've seen other teams turning around real quick. Why 0:13:27.120 --> 0:13:29.760 would you say just because they're the Giants, just because 0:13:29.800 --> 0:13:33.880 they have that stigma because of what they've been, they're 0:13:33.880 --> 0:13:35.760 not that team anymore. With all these new people, the 0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:39.319 Giants would have an equal reputation of the Jets had 0:13:39.360 --> 0:13:42.280 they not had these miraculous Again, they were two super 0:13:42.280 --> 0:13:44.640 Bowl runs, so again it's hard to take that away. 0:13:44.679 --> 0:13:47.400 But other than those two runs, and Sam's right, one 0:13:47.440 --> 0:13:49.440 of them was as a nine to seven road dog 0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:53.720 wildcard team. If they didn't have those runs, their highlights 0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:56.120 would have been the equivalent of a Mark Sanchez Jets team, 0:13:56.120 --> 0:13:57.320 and you would have been like, yeah, both New York 0:13:57.360 --> 0:14:01.040 team's equally stink because they do other than Maconky and Bovaro. 0:14:01.080 --> 0:14:04.360 Would have been the last great memory, the way Sims day, 0:14:04.400 --> 0:14:07.440 the way the Mets glorified Darryl Strawberry. The Giants will 0:14:07.480 --> 0:14:11.600 still be talking about Phil Simms blonde mullet. All right, 0:14:11.679 --> 0:14:14.920 so we open it up now, it's an exciting day. 0:14:16.160 --> 0:14:19.440 Last night was an exciting night. Who ares who races 0:14:19.480 --> 0:14:21.360 the suck first? Danny, I go to you because you're 0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:23.880 a Raiders fan, I think I think honestly, I gave 0:14:23.880 --> 0:14:25.800 you my answer. I think it's the Giants, and that's 0:14:25.840 --> 0:14:28.200 not to knock the excitement. I still have to see 0:14:28.240 --> 0:14:31.680 where the Raiders go the whole Fernandoumandos, the storyline is 0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:34.800 so dope, So I say that respectfully, Danny. 0:14:34.520 --> 0:14:36.640 G Yeah, and I think the Raiders have more work 0:14:36.680 --> 0:14:39.560 to do on the defensive side of the ball compared 0:14:39.600 --> 0:14:41.960 to the Giants. The Giants have a head start on 0:14:42.000 --> 0:14:44.440 the Raiders. So yeah, the Giants have a better, way, 0:14:44.480 --> 0:14:46.600 better chance of moving forward faster. 0:14:47.000 --> 0:14:49.840 Is it a so which suck? Would this disappear first? 0:14:50.200 --> 0:14:54.160 Is it a redunculous Is it a ridunculous prop bet 0:14:55.080 --> 0:14:58.000 to say I'm gonna parlay that the Giants and Raiders 0:14:58.000 --> 0:15:03.400 both make the postseason next year. I don't think it's crazy. Yeah, 0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:05.640 you've seen it. I mean, but think about it before. 0:15:05.800 --> 0:15:08.840 For the Raiders moving forward, an eight win season would 0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:11.280 be good. They just want to see some growth in 0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:12.200 the right direction, all. 0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:13.920 Right, So look at the two teams. We're focusing on, 0:15:13.960 --> 0:15:17.640 the Raiders and the Giants. It's uh. I know people 0:15:17.680 --> 0:15:20.400 say comparison is the thief of joy. Right, that's a 0:15:20.400 --> 0:15:22.320 good saying. I agree with that. Comparison is the thief 0:15:22.360 --> 0:15:24.080 of Joey. You go look on Instagram. That's why I'm 0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:26.560 so sad watching all the fun people have on vacation 0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:28.680 on social media. Go go on Instagram. I saw a 0:15:28.720 --> 0:15:30.680 girl do a great clip on social media. Believe it 0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:33.480 or not, she goes. You go on social media, everyone's hot. 0:15:33.560 --> 0:15:37.080 Look around real life, I see they're not go weeks 0:15:37.080 --> 0:15:39.720 without seeing like a really hot person. But on social media, 0:15:39.760 --> 0:15:42.080 every scroll is like a girl that's got a great 0:15:42.120 --> 0:15:44.200 ass and ass. Where all these hot he's at. They're 0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:46.960 all on Malibu. Where are all the hot people? The 0:15:47.000 --> 0:15:49.000 whole foods across the street. Bro, that's where they are. 0:15:49.040 --> 0:15:51.880 Because honestly, on social media you would think everyone's hot 0:15:51.920 --> 0:15:54.200 and shopping around in their yoga pants. In real life, 0:15:54.240 --> 0:15:56.600 every day you just see a lot of mutants. So 0:15:56.800 --> 0:16:00.240 I think you got to keep it real here, even 0:16:00.280 --> 0:16:03.840 though comparison is the thief of joy. The Giants are 0:16:03.880 --> 0:16:06.360 in a division where the Eagles look like they're lost 0:16:06.360 --> 0:16:09.240 in the sauce. A J. Brown's probably gone. That's that 0:16:09.320 --> 0:16:12.720 team's psychologically not there. Washington had a big down year. 0:16:12.960 --> 0:16:16.000 The Cowboys are always in a flux of confusion, and 0:16:17.720 --> 0:16:19.240 you see the giants there and you're like, you know, 0:16:19.320 --> 0:16:22.560 maybe there's an opportunity. The Raiders still have to compete 0:16:22.600 --> 0:16:25.280 with the Chiefs team with Andy Reid that will clearly 0:16:25.360 --> 0:16:27.800 want to revamp and be competitive again with back with 0:16:27.880 --> 0:16:30.720 the photo though, that photo of Scatabu and Dart when 0:16:30.760 --> 0:16:33.720 things were clicking for that small portion of the year 0:16:33.760 --> 0:16:35.560 where they really don't care what. I don't care what 0:16:35.560 --> 0:16:37.080 I have to say. I'm just saying I feel like 0:16:37.080 --> 0:16:39.240 you're forgetting that. No, you don't care what I have 0:16:39.280 --> 0:16:40.680 to say. I do care. I read an article It 0:16:40.760 --> 0:16:42.640 said if you interrupt someone mid sentence, that means you 0:16:42.720 --> 0:16:45.360 just don't care what they're saying. Were you doing research 0:16:45.400 --> 0:16:48.280 on why people get frustrated with you because you do 0:16:48.320 --> 0:16:48.880 it all the time? 0:16:48.960 --> 0:16:49.040 Oh? 0:16:49.160 --> 0:16:52.040 Yeah, Well would want to do account? Yeah I would. 0:16:52.120 --> 0:16:54.520 I would like to do it. I don't because word 0:16:54.600 --> 0:16:57.560 for word, I think it's like one thousand to one hundred. 0:16:57.600 --> 0:16:59.160 If you want to do a word count on this show. 0:16:59.400 --> 0:17:02.600 If we had like a punch stat, like a comp 0:17:02.680 --> 0:17:05.640 u box stat for punches, you think I say ten 0:17:05.720 --> 0:17:07.919 times more stuff than you with that A damn I 0:17:07.920 --> 0:17:10.720 should get paid more. Let me now. So it's like 0:17:10.800 --> 0:17:12.679 I'm playing a game with double Dutch. I have to 0:17:12.720 --> 0:17:15.119 throw in my comments or else I'll never get anything in. 0:17:15.320 --> 0:17:17.600 David Letterman would never let any of his guests finish 0:17:17.640 --> 0:17:19.840 a sentence. He'd always start the next questions. That's just 0:17:20.040 --> 0:17:21.359 it's a strategy for both of you. 0:17:21.400 --> 0:17:24.240 It's fine. Sorry, I know you were mister sensitive pants. 0:17:24.359 --> 0:17:26.920 You want no gaps, no silence. I didn't know Rich 0:17:26.960 --> 0:17:30.479 had sensitive pants on today because I'm excited about the Giants. 0:17:30.480 --> 0:17:32.640 I thought it was pump it up or take it ease. 0:17:32.880 --> 0:17:34.400 All you had to do is just take it ease. 0:17:34.760 --> 0:17:36.840 Oh man, I'm pumped up. I thought these were Travis 0:17:36.840 --> 0:17:39.480 Matthew pants. You forget the jersey, their sensitive pants. 0:17:39.480 --> 0:17:42.800 You're right, you were talking about the AFC West and 0:17:42.800 --> 0:17:44.320 Andy Reid's gonna want to revamp. 0:17:45.280 --> 0:17:48.360 I was saying, your your division has the number one seed, 0:17:48.359 --> 0:17:51.280 never Broncos, the Chiefs who clearly are not gonna want 0:17:51.280 --> 0:17:53.119 to be, you know, down and out too long. They 0:17:53.119 --> 0:17:55.440 got Mahomes and Andy Reid. And you also have the 0:17:55.520 --> 0:17:57.919 Chargers who while they looked like asked last week, they 0:17:57.920 --> 0:17:59.760 still made the playoffs and one eleven games, and they 0:17:59.760 --> 0:18:02.959 have heard and Harbaugh, so they're also gonna revamp their 0:18:02.960 --> 0:18:04.440 own line. You know what it's like, Danny, It's like 0:18:04.480 --> 0:18:07.639 looking at the Cardinals in the NFC West and saying, 0:18:07.960 --> 0:18:09.840 my goodness, you could do whatever you want to try 0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:11.520 to revamp that team, but you're still in the same 0:18:11.520 --> 0:18:16.119 division as Kyle Shanahan, Sean McVay, Mike McDonald and you 0:18:16.160 --> 0:18:19.560 know three division that was kicking everyone's butt last week, 0:18:19.600 --> 0:18:22.159 the Vision that broke record three teams won twelve or 0:18:22.160 --> 0:18:25.040 more games. Good luck Cardinals, and unfortunately that's the Raiders 0:18:25.080 --> 0:18:27.840 as saying they're going all the way. You're saying they're 0:18:27.880 --> 0:18:30.560 gonna be a lot better next year. Could they go 0:18:30.600 --> 0:18:33.679 all the way? Anything could happen. They're gonna be better, 0:18:33.840 --> 0:18:36.480 a lot better. Everybody's gonna revamp, but I think the 0:18:36.520 --> 0:18:41.600 Giants have a way wayhead start with Harbaugh, an exciting 0:18:41.680 --> 0:18:44.280 quarterback and exciting running back coming back. Yeah, we also 0:18:44.400 --> 0:18:45.600 need to put the receiver. 0:18:45.680 --> 0:18:47.760 We also need to put the Falcons into this mix 0:18:47.840 --> 0:18:51.000 because on defense they're ahead of both of those teams. 0:18:51.320 --> 0:18:53.240 They're at the question mark for them as quarterback. 0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:57.359 If the Falcons and don't don't think for a second 0:18:57.359 --> 0:19:00.600 that harbought it and he had all these these requirements 0:19:00.640 --> 0:19:03.120 to go there, right, You don't think that he's like, yeah, 0:19:03.160 --> 0:19:04.840 but I'm only going there if you're getting X, Y 0:19:04.880 --> 0:19:07.280 and Z as far as players as well, they're going 0:19:07.359 --> 0:19:09.560 to get so many more weapons. He didn't go there 0:19:09.640 --> 0:19:11.840 just to suck. Yeah, but there's no way I can't 0:19:11.880 --> 0:19:14.960 guarantee teams players want to sign, but they're already good. 0:19:15.040 --> 0:19:17.280 You have to make a commitment. But he's the reason 0:19:17.320 --> 0:19:18.239 they're going to want to go there. 0:19:18.280 --> 0:19:20.240 Yeah, And I think what makes this fun Covin know 0:19:20.280 --> 0:19:23.199 we talked about Skataboo and of course Jackson Dart on 0:19:23.280 --> 0:19:27.359 the other side with Las Vegas, imagine Fernando Mendoza. He 0:19:27.440 --> 0:19:29.440 walks in with a lot of holes and question marks 0:19:29.440 --> 0:19:31.040 on the roster, but he does get to throw the 0:19:31.040 --> 0:19:34.360 ball to brock Bowers and hand it off to Ashton Genty, 0:19:34.400 --> 0:19:37.800 who's exciting to watch. And Genty almost ran for a 0:19:37.880 --> 0:19:40.320 thousand yards behind that pitiful olie. 0:19:40.440 --> 0:19:43.879 And because I'm not hating on the Raiders, got Brady there. Man, 0:19:44.359 --> 0:19:46.639 this guy who is going to take a more prominent 0:19:46.720 --> 0:19:48.359 role for He's going to take him under his wing. 0:19:48.440 --> 0:19:51.680 I mean, that's incredible. What young player of that stature, 0:19:51.720 --> 0:19:54.080 like a Mendoza type wouldn't want to have a Brady 0:19:54.080 --> 0:19:57.320 on your side. It's amazing. So I'm excited for both teams. 0:19:57.320 --> 0:19:59.119 But to answer your question, I'm still sticking with the 0:19:59.160 --> 0:20:02.119 Giants here, prisoner of the moment. Maybe Falcons is an 0:20:02.119 --> 0:20:04.959 interesting one, Danny, because well, I know they didn't make 0:20:04.960 --> 0:20:07.440 the playoffs. They were in a three way tie technically, yeah, 0:20:07.480 --> 0:20:11.840 and that division so mediocre that the Falcons that we 0:20:11.880 --> 0:20:14.640 said that game they lost to the Jets, they beat 0:20:14.640 --> 0:20:17.239 the Jets, they're the ones that win that division at 0:20:17.320 --> 0:20:19.720 nine and eight, I think the Falcons you could argue 0:20:19.720 --> 0:20:21.879
