Speaker 2: It's the story everyone's talking about, the most crooked officiating

17
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 2: call we've ever seen, as Sam Darnald and Seattle celebrating.

Speaker 2: Beat the Rams or did the zebras a two point

20
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 2: conversion that was not recorded on the field but was

21
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:05,679
Speaker 2: given despite a whistle blowing by the officials. How concerned

22
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 2: should Sean mcvaby As the Rams ended up losing in

23
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 2: overtime to Seattle, Did Sam Darnold save himself with the

24
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 2: crazy comeback for the Seahawks? And does this Ram loss

25
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 2: kill the Matthew Stafford MVP campaigning.

00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 2: as approved my super Marcus Steve, who reminds us that

46
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 2: this portion of the Men Mallard showing Fox made possible

47
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 2: in part by our friends at Tiraq for over forty

48
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:44,079
Speaker 2: years Tyraq has been helping customers like al ferg Dog

Speaker 2: Renton approves with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation.

54
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,359
Speaker 1: Makes mister nice guy very happy and crying.

55
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 2: Craig reminds me that tire rack dot Com is the

56
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,919
Speaker 2: way that tire buying should be. So we are back

57
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:21,279
Speaker 2: at it. In the audio world. The magic radio.

58
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: Box as someone called it in our lead this hour from.

59
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 2: The Pacific Northwest, as you had Matthew Stafford and the

60
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 2: lr I AMS party bus driving in to the Pacific

61
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 2: Northwest to Chew for a little playdate versus that stiff

62
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 2: Sam Donald and the Seahawks. You had Alt Michael's there

63
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 2: and Herbie on the call on the Amazon And did

64
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 2: you watch?

65
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: Were you checking this out? Were you consuming the product? You?

66
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: Maybe not? You were doing some shopping? What were you doing? Really?

67
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: Nothing else going on? There's nothing else to watch.

68
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 2: Well, if you missed it, you missed a hum dinger

69
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 2: of a Thursday night game It was kind of like

70
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 2: a buffet where they have a little bit of everything.

71
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 2: You have the seafood over there, you've got steak, there's

72
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 2: some pasta if you're if you're a vegan, you can

73
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 2: go out the back door there and leave, but a

74
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 2: little bit of everything. So the game for many lived

75
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 2: up to the advance building and Sam Donald, who was

76
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,840
Speaker 2: bad to the bone, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad to

77
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 2: the bone. Sometimes good things happen to bad performances, and

78
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 2: Sam Donald connecting with Jackson Smith and Jigba for a

79
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,039
Speaker 2: touchdown and overtime after the Rams had gone down and

80
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 2: scored a touchdown on a brilliant pass by Matthew Stafford

81
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 2: and Pooka Nka and then Seattle said we're gonna go

82
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 2: for We're gonna go for the win. And they said

83
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 2: we're gonna try to win right here on our two

84
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 2: point conversion, knowing that the Rams were just going to

85
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,359
Speaker 2: go down the field and kick a field goal to

86
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 2: win if they did not go for two. And Donald

87
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 2: did connect, he found a wide open player in the

88
00:04:58,839 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 2: How does that happen?

89
00:04:59,839 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 4: Does?

90
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 1: How does somebody get wide open? At that point?

91
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 2: The two point conversion complete, game over, That's it. The

92
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 2: Seattle Seahawks rallied from a sixteen point fourth quarter deficit,

93
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:16,919
Speaker 2: converting on three two point conversions. The math on that

94
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 2: is just insane, and of course it's not kosher, so

95
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 2: it's not really legit. They end up the end the

96
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 2: final score thirty eight to thirty seven on Thursday night.

97
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 2: So Seattle, for the moment, takes a one game lead

98
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 2: in the NFC West.

99
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:32,919
Speaker 1: But the game was not clean.

100
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 2: It was marred by controversy as the Seattle football team

101
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 2: was not good enough to beat the Rams on their own.

102
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 2: They needed some help from the league office. And one

103
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 2: of the most blatant things I've ever seen in my

104
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:48,039
Speaker 2: time watching football, there was a two point conversion that

105
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 2: the NFL claimed tied the game at thirty. Now, for

106
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 2: our blind listeners, the past hit the ground. Normally that's

107
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 2: considered an incomplete pass. It's a good jumping off point

108
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 2: because it's really the story everyone's talkalking about.

109
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 1: So let us discuss the question.

110
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 2: Did Sam Darnold and the Seahawks beat the Rams or

111
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 2: did the Zebras.

112
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:13,279
Speaker 1: Take down the Rams?

113
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 2: So I got Godfather, mister potato Head, and jukebox, and

114
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 2: we will combine all of these things together and we

115
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 2: are going to make some banana cream pie, which is

116
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,720
Speaker 2: what was thrown in the face of the La Rams. Now,

117
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 2: anybody who knows football knows this game should have ended

118
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 2: thirty to twenty eight Rams a two point win in regulation.

119
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 2: Seattle was given two points out of thin air. Out

120
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,559
Speaker 2: of thin air. Now, we believe in speaking the truth

121
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 2: into the microphones of Fox Sports Radio.

122
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,040
Speaker 1: We can do that. We're not part of the mainstream.

123
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 1: We're not on during the day six am to six pm.

124
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 2: They get paid more money and they have nicer cars

125
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 2: and all that stuff. But at night we can talk

126
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,720
Speaker 2: the truth. And the truth is the Rams got the

127
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 2: screw job. They did one of the all time horrific calls.

128
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,599
Speaker 2: I I know house to say it for Gayzy Sam

129
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 2: Darnold pass deflected intended for the running back Zach Charboneau,

130
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 2: and it was ruled correctly on the field incomplete pass.

131
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 2: That was the right call.

132
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: They got it right.

133
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 2: However, after a replay review to the league headquarters in

134
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 2: New York, it was determined surprisingly that it was no, no, no,

135
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 2: not an incomplete pass. You're don't believe your lying eyes.

136
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 2: Do not believe your lying eyes. It was a it

137
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 2: was determined to be a backwards pass, all right, So

138
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 2: it was not It was not determined there was a

139
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 2: forward pass.

140
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: It was a backward pass. So Scharboneau, who this is

141
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 1: my favorite part. So he just la la, la la la.

142
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: He walked over.

143
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 2: He picked up the ball casually, you know, no concern.

144
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 2: Uh picked up the loose ball.

145
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: They gave him two points for that.

146
00:07:56,080 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 2: It is comically bad, but it's very dusty. It doesn't exist.

147
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 2: It's not effing real. You can clearly you.

148
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: Go back in here it You don't even need to

149
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: be uh with working eyeballs to know.

150
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 2: If you go back and listen, you can clearly hear

151
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 2: the whistle blow.

152
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 1: And maybe I'm wrong on this. I know times have changed.

153
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 2: I guess I'm getting older, but I always thought once

154
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 2: the whistle blue, you play through the whistle, that's it.

155
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 2: Once the whistle blows, plays over, plays over. So the

156
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 2: whistle blows, whistle, whistle, whistle, the whistle blows.

157
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 1: The play dead. Then Charboneau picks up the ball.

158
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 2: Keep in mind, players on both teams, both teams stop

159
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,199
Speaker 2: playing because of the whistle blue.

160
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 1: Up nuts at the end.

161
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 2: There's the whistle, all right, So you got players on

162
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 2: Seattle and the Rams who both stopped at the same

163
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 2: time because an official blue the whistle and apra e

164
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 2: f and kept.

165
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 1: I mean, it was jup digulous. I can't even say it.

166
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: The NFL decided to roll a two point conversion.

167
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:02,199
Speaker 2: Holcus what this was more than just a guardian angel

168
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 2: for the Seattle Seahawks, all right, there's some serious funny

169
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,680
Speaker 2: business going on. Here is Sean McVay, the Ram coach.

170
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 2: Who is he gonna get fined for this? Here's McVeagh

171
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 2: pointing out, well, that's not kosher.

172
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 1: What happened. Take a list.

173
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,440
Speaker 5: I've never quite seen anything like what happened on the

174
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,240
Speaker 5: two point conversion where you're wined up to kick off.

175
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 5: Then they say it's a fumble because they had the

176
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,320
Speaker 5: clear and obvious recovery. Now you tack it on, you

177
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 5: make it a thirty to thirty game.

178
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:30,559
Speaker 1: Very interesting.

179
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 5: Didn't get a clear explanation of everything that went on,

180
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:36,679
Speaker 5: just because of some of the timing of it. They

181
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 5: were trying to be able.

182
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 3: To do that.

183
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:39,439
Speaker 1: But that's the thing that I've said.

184
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 5: I've never seen anything or never been a part of

185
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 5: anything like that, and I've grown up around this game.

186
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:46,840
Speaker 1: I'm not making excuses. We don't do that. I don't

187
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 1: believe in that.

188
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 5: It doesn't move us forward, but we do want clarity

189
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 5: and an understanding of, you know, the things that we

190
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 5: can do to minimize that when we rejected the two

191
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 5: point conversion.

192
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 2: All right, So coach McVay, two things. Number one, the

193
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 2: reason you've ever seen it's never happened before. This is unprecedented.

194
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 2: What happened here. This is one of the great injustices

195
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 2: in the history of that fraudulent sport, the NFL. Right insane,

196
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 2: let's play connected dots Mallard style connected dots.

197
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:14,959
Speaker 1: All right, So the big story this week.

198
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 2: In the NFL was Pooka Nakua going on a live stream,

199
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 2: right trashing the NFL officials, doing a dance which I

200
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 2: apologize for whatever, and ripping Taylor Swift and Jacksonville a

201
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 2: bunch of crazy stuff. So Puoka goes out and goes nuclear.

202
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 2: Has twelve catches. It was like he was running through

203
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 2: the Serengetti. Twelve catches, two un of twenty five yards.

204
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 2: A partrides in the paragy, had two touchdowns, including what

205
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 2: should have been.

206
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 1: The game winner.

207
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 2: Well name shit entered in regulation but the touchdown and overtime,

208
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 2: the story is we connect the dots though. Is Pooka

209
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:53,840
Speaker 2: nkou right? He dared to question authority, He questioned the

210
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 2: referees on the live stream. Is it a coincidence that

211
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 2: a day later this happens?

212
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,200
Speaker 1: Methinks not so much? Right.

213
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 2: This was big Brother at the NFL sending a clear message.

214
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 2: This was payback the horse head in the bed from

215
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 2: the Godfather, an unmistakable message that was sent by the NFL.

216
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 1: We control all of this.

217
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,439
Speaker 2: You mess with us again, and the next warning will

218
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 2: not be symbolic, Pooka, It's not gonna be. We We

219
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 2: have the power to give points that did not get scored.

220
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 1: We are almighty, omni present worth the NFL. Don't mess

221
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 1: with us. Okay.

222
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 2: That was a horsehead in the bed, is what That was?

223
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 2: One thousand percent all right? And I would I would

224
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 2: be puking in my mouth if I was a Seattle

225
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 2: Seahawk fan right now that I would want to I

226
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 2: would really want to vomit at that because you know

227
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,199
Speaker 2: you're not good enough. You know you're not and you

228
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 2: needed you talk about the twelfth man man. How many

229
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 2: officials were on the field, that's like the you know, sixteenth, seventeenth, eighteenth, nineteenth, twentieth.

230
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 1: Man, my god, it's so bad. I don't even what

231
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 1: to say. It's such a crap call.

232
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 2: It's not even I mean, they were at McVeigh said,

233
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 2: they're lining up for the kickoff and they're like, coach,

234
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 2: we've decided to give Seattle two points. They but they

235
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,320
Speaker 2: didn't score. But yeah, we felt like they needed the

236
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 2: two points. We decided we wanted to give them the

237
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 2: two points, but they didn't. The play was whistled, Dad,

238
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 2: the play was over.

239
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,719
Speaker 1: That was it. But no, we kind of liked them,

240
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 1: you know.

241
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,559
Speaker 2: We felt bad for Nostradinas and JJ and Retten and

242
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 2: crying Craig and all these fan guys. So we had

243
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 2: to give them two points. Okay, thank you?

244
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: Wow.

245
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 2: All right, now as for the big picture here the

246
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 2: big picture, So the question how concerned because the Rams

247
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,840
Speaker 2: did end up being given the loss by the NFL.

248
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 2: So how concerned should Sean McVay be with the Rams

249
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 2: lose this game in Seattle thanks to some help by

250
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 2: the league office.

251
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 1: So the Mallard panic meter one to ten, one.

252
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 2: To ten, I'm at I'm at about a three on

253
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 2: the Malard panic meter. It took the league meddling, It

254
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:21,319
Speaker 2: took the NFL fuxing around with the outcome of the game.

255
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 1: People talk about.

256
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,559
Speaker 2: Gambling scandals right in NBA and all this baseball. I mean,

257
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 2: this is clear and obvious for most you know. It

258
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 2: took the league meddling for Seattle to win this game,

259
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 2: which tells you Seattle's not good enough. And keep in mind,

260
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 2: the Rams did not have their nuclear torpedo Devonte Adams,

261
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 2: the cheat code in the red zone, and they were

262
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 2: missing a couple of other starters.

263
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 1: In this game.

264
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 2: The Rams put up let me check my notes here,

265
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 2: they put up five hundred and eighty one yards and

266
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 2: thirty seven points in a place selects to pump their

267
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 2: chest out. Talk about how people just don't play well

268
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 2: in Seattle. The twelves, Oh, it's very the weather. Top

269
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 2: five defense, Sea awusly had a top five defense coming

270
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 2: to that game. Top five defense gave up five hundred

271
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 2: and eighty one yards and thirty seven points to a

272
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 2: team without the without their number two receiver and a

273
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 2: couple of other key players.

274
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so there you go. That's it now. The

275
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 1: issue for the Rams, obviously is that you can't factor in.

276
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 2: How do you game plan for the officials just giving

277
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 2: the team two points when they didn't get it.

278
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 1: There's really nothing to do on that. The Rams defense wears.

279
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 2: The scarlet letter to some degree here with the capitol

280
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 2: d My god, you're up sixteen in the fourth quarter.

281
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 2: And I know it took the officials helping out Seattle,

282
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 2: but that's that's that's not great. And the Rams did

283
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 2: play a little mister potato head here, the hot potato

284
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 2: game with the you know, they played the hot potato

285
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 2: with the live you know, it was like a live

286
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 2: grenade they were passing around. It's inexcusable, right, you know,

287
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 2: f around you find out. But the NFL certainly helped in.

288
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 2: And there's a bit of a pattern here the Rams.

289
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 2: Usually they just lose games more than get beat. Like

290
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 2: they didn't lose this game, or they didn't they didn't

291
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 2: get beat. I should say the game was given to

292
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 2: Seattle in this case, but the fur balls being coughed up,

293
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 2: they blew up a sixteen point they really they blew

294
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 2: a fourteen point lead because Seattle is given two points.

295
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 1: So you don't get credit for that. You didn't you

296
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 1: didn't earn it. You know, real people know that they

297
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 1: did blow a nineteen point lead in Philadelphia earlier this year.

298
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 2: So that's a bad habit and McVeigh needs to flush

299
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 2: that immediately. You look at the big picture, thirty thousand

300
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 2: feet up looking down, the Rams are perfectly fine. It's

301
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 2: not like they have some kind of home field advantage.

302
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 2: There's not a moat at Sofi Stadium. They were in

303
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 2: the NFC Championship Game a couple of years ago.

304
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 1: I was there.

305
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 2: They played the forty nine Ers. They might as well

306
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 2: have been played at the old Candlestick Park. There were

307
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 2: so many Niner fans it didn't matter. The Rams won

308
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 2: the game, and the Rams can win anywhere.

309
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 1: They're good enough to do that.

310
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 2: And as long as Stafford's standing upright and the fellas

311
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 2: are relatively healthy.

312
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 1: You're not ever going to be completely healthy. And the

313
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 1: Rams aren't really concerned.

314
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 2: I mean, they'd love to play Seattle in the NFC

315
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 2: Championship Game, and the only way Seattle can win is

316
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 2: with some help from the referees from the league office.

317
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 2: So the panic meter is pretty low, and I'm sure

318
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 2: McVeigh will sleep fine knowing that this was out of

319
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 2: his control. I mean, the NFL clearly wanted this outcome

320
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 2: based on what they did, giving Seattle two points.

321
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 1: Otherwise the game would have ended thirty to twenty eight.

322
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 1: That's it. Game over, Rams win by two. All right,

323
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: last word here, So on the.

324
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 2: Seattle side of things, being given a gift, Merry Christmas,

325
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 2: Happy Hanukah? Did Sam Donald save himself with Seattle and

326
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 2: that crazy comeback? Because Sam Darnald was just getting roasted

327
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 2: and deserved it. He sucked at a time you cannot suck.

328
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 2: So did Darnald save himself? Because Seattle ended up winning

329
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 2: that game? So I'm gonna vote first on this, and

330
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 2: I'm going to vote A and absolutely not. I go

331
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 2: back to my point earlier. The og know what time

332
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 2: it is Seattle right now, they got that shiny record.

333
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:06,680
Speaker 2: They're now in the penthouse in the NFC West. I

334
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 2: wouldn't get comfortable, boys, it's more like a Verbo. It's

335
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 2: an Airbnb Seattle standing on a rickety pier and there's

336
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 2: a big windstorm coming here, so be careful. And hey,

337
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 2: it's great. I wish the Rams had gotten help from

338
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:20,920
Speaker 2: the Zebras.

339
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:21,439
Speaker 1: I didn't know.

340
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,199
Speaker 2: I didn't know that that was possible to get be

341
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 2: given two points. I've never seen that before.

342
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,639
Speaker 1: Watch football. I'm getting old. I watched football my entyle live.

343
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 1: I've ever seen that.

344
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:33,119
Speaker 2: The Zebras gave them more than a gentle nudge Seattle.

345
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 2: And you'll call it a league issued shopping cart shove

346
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 2: if you will.

347
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 1: And you know, suddenly some of you are like, oh wait,

348
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 1: we beat your Ram the Rams lost, are you well? No,

349
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 1: I know about that. I wouldn't. I wouldn't be opening

350
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,159
Speaker 1: champagne and lighting cigars. I would not do that.

351
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 6: You know.

352
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:52,199
Speaker 2: Sam Darnold was a haunted house from kickoff pretty much

353
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:55,439
Speaker 2: to the curtain call here two touchdowns, two picks. He

354
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,359
Speaker 2: was sacked four times, and for much of that game

355
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 2: he was seeing ghosts. It was like a midnight Mattinee

356
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 2: for Sam Darnold. And you know, you just know you

357
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 2: can't win with him, so it's like, what are we

358
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 2: doing here? It's an exercise in futility for Seattle. The

359
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 2: real Seahawk fans know this guy's gonna break just break

360
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 2: your back. Seattle won in spite of him, not because

361
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 2: of him, And he's an unreliable orchestrator. It's more kazoo

362
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:25,400
Speaker 2: than conductor. And you know, and I know, and every man,

363
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 2: woman and child knows when the music matters, the needle

364
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 2: skips just.

365
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 1: A little bit, just a little bit at skips.

366
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 2: And we've we've read this paperback before we saw it

367
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 2: in Seattle. Last year, we saw it in Minnesota. Rather

368
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,840
Speaker 2: the last year the dog eared kind of predictable. So

369
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 2: if you were really happy, I good for you, you should

370
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,879
Speaker 2: send a thank you note email the NFL. Thank you

371
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 2: very much, appreciate it. Boys on Park Avenue there, thank you.

372
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 2: We hope you enjoy the mirage while it lasts. Enjoy it,

373
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 2: Seattle fans, twelve fans, whatever you call it, because the

374
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 2: jukebox is warming up, and it's an Elvis classic for Seattle.

375
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 1: I'll welcome to Heartbreak Hotel, as as that's going to

376
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:05,680
Speaker 1: be the case.

377
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 2: Now, as far as the MVP debate, does this end it?

378
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 2: I guess that's the question. Does this ram lost kill

379
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:16,919
Speaker 2: Matthew Stafford's MVP campaign, his mojo for the MVP. I

380
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:21,199
Speaker 2: don't even think that's close. Like again, I give that

381
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:26,359
Speaker 2: argument side eye. Stafford played for most It wasn't perfect.

382
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,359
Speaker 2: There were some throws that sailed on him, but he

383
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 2: played for the most part like a five star chef

384
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 2: who was trapped in a kitchen fire. Four hundred and

385
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 2: fifty seven yards, three touchdowns against the top five defense,

386
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 2: against the top five defense.

387
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 1: Did not turn the ball over, and he did it shorthanded.

388
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 2: He did shorthanded without Poka Nicoua, or with Pooka Nikoua

389
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 2: scoring the touchdown, but without DeVante Adams. And he threw

390
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:54,640
Speaker 2: that laser to Pooka in overtime. Shich You'd say, well,

391
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 2: that's that's the sizzle play. If you look at the

392
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 2: sizzle reel, that's one of the sizzle plays on the

393
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 2: sizzle reel. And do you really dock the quarterback? Because

394
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:09,199
Speaker 2: the defense at diarrhea Die Die diarrhea. Now we know

395
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 2: the refs had to send Pooka a message. We mentioned

396
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:16,639
Speaker 2: the horsehead in the bed. The defense did not do

397
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:17,920
Speaker 2: its job in overtime.

398
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:19,199
Speaker 1: They did not.

399
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 2: And that's not on Stafford though to me. The real

400
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 2: call for the big loser, and they were trying to

401
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:25,200
Speaker 2: prop this guy up. They showed him on TV. Is

402
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:29,879
Speaker 2: Chris Shula, the defensive coordinator of Arims all name recognition,

403
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 2: another NEPO baby, Chris Shula and his team had multiple

404
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:40,199
Speaker 2: chances to make a play in overtime and did not

405
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 2: get to stop. And so Grandpa Don is rolling in

406
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 2: his grave, like, what are you doing? At least you're

407
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,440
Speaker 2: not as embarrassing as my kid, but my god, you're

408
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,199
Speaker 2: my grandson. You got to do better than that. What

409
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 2: are we doing here?

410

Speaker 2: You got to tell you. But take good for Seattle.

482
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,680

00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 6: No. S.

488
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 1: Tredinis writes, and he says, Ben, You're absolutely right. Seahawks

489
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:48,880
Speaker 1: did not deserve to win that game. There's no denying that.

490
00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 2: The officials helped out the Seahawks. And Sam Donald is

491
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 2: not the man you cannot depend on. Well if very

492
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 2: honest of No, stredenas to admit all that stuff. I

493
00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 2: did not expect you to admit that on this night,

494
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 2: But I give you. I thought you'd send some fanboy

495
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:07,919
Speaker 2: tweet in about saying that Sam Darnold.

496
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 1: Is good and Seattle's great and all that stuff. But

497
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 1: you didn't do that.

498
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, Scrooge says, aside from bad officiating, you cannot let

499
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,680
Speaker 2: vomit comet Sam Darnold have a game winning drive against

500
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 2: your defense. So aside from the game, Scrooge, that should

501
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 2: have been over thirty to twenty eight in regulation. Aside

502
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 2: from that, let's just overlook. Let's overlook snuffalupogous in the room. Okay,

503
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,400
Speaker 2: let's just overlook snuffalopogus.

504
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 1: In the room.

505
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:39,879
Speaker 2: Please, my god, not a burner, says Ben. Even though

506
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,439
Speaker 2: we will be missing you, try not to think about

507
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 2: your favorite militia members and enjoy your holiday break.

Speaker 1: I could host a rave here, Oh my god. Good.

522
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,359
Speaker 1: You could charge money. That's a great idea.

523
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 2: You can get some of the homeless people out in

524
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:20,480

Speaker 1: And all that. Why not? Yeah?

527
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 2: Absolutely, I Leen in San Francisco says I only care

528
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 2: about my Niners, that they're still alive. Just don't lose

529
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 2: to forty four year old Philip Rivers on Monday night.

530
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:35,480
Speaker 2: Do not lose that game as a dangerous game. The

531
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 2: Niners not great against the run, and Indianapolis pretty pretty

532
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:43,680
Speaker 2: good running the ball. Ozzie was from Western Australia rights

533
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 2: and he says I missed the Thursday night game, although

534
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 2: for him it's Friday because they're a day ahead. He says,

535
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 2: I missed the game. Dude driving about half an hour

536
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 2: to get McDonald's and do some food chopping.

537
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, Ozzie was. Ozzi was lives out like far far

538
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 1: away from everything.

539
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:05,360
Speaker 2: He's surrounded by hundreds of kangaroos and that's it. And

540
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:07,960
Speaker 2: so he's got if he wants to get anything, he's

541
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:09,919
Speaker 2: got to drive like half an hour an hour to

542
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,680
Speaker 2: civilization to get like a like a big mac and

543
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:16,399
Speaker 2: fries is what he's gotta do. The specialist says big

544
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,400
Speaker 2: Ben is in full conspiracy theory mode.

545
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 1: Well, I know, what you're doing.

546
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:22,679
Speaker 2: I guess you're a fan of the CIA, which came

547
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 2: up with that term years ago to dismiss claims against

548
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,920
Speaker 2: the CIA about aliens and whatnot. So you're falling right

549
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 2: into the CIA playbook. When you use the conspiracy theory

550
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 2: to try to demean the truth, you stand against the

551
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 2: truth specialists.

552
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:38,880
Speaker 1: That's it. He says.

553
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,719
Speaker 2: The NFL wanted the Seahawks to win, really ben small

554
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 2: market Seahawks over big band Rams from LA the metro

555
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:48,200
Speaker 2: population a ten million. Well, I know you're not that bright.

556
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,679
Speaker 2: Let me let me explain something to you specialists. This

557
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:56,680
Speaker 2: was bigger than Rams Seahawks. The story here is Pook

558
00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:02,600
Speaker 2: pooka question authority. He questioned the overlords at the NFL.

559
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 2: He took some shots on a live stream. He defied

560
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,919
Speaker 2: Sean mvay. But then he defied the NFL and he

561
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 2: did the thing you can't do it. So the NFL.

562
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:13,639
Speaker 1: They don't mess around.

563
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 2: They don't mess around, and it's still time to manipulate

564
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 2: things and get the Rams back. But they had to

565
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:22,879
Speaker 2: send a message, and they absolutely sent that message. Mister

566
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 2: nice guy Ritch and he agrees that was a terrible call.

567
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 2: He was doing what aboutism, which is his way of agreeing.

568
00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 2: When you do what about ism, that's your way of saying,

569
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,719
Speaker 2: you're right, Ben, and I do appreciate you having my support.

570
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 2: Supermarket Steve also in a grim Well that's good. I thought,

571
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 2: you know, I came into the studio. I was walking

572
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 2: to the studio. I was like, man, you know, people

573
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 2: are gonna be busting my chops here. But so far

574
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 2: everyone's kind of on my side. Jj N Renton, he

575
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 2: agrees with me. I didn't realize the Seahawk fans were

576
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 2: wired this way. I thought they would be, you know,

577
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:58,959
Speaker 2: in denial about the call being bogus and all that.

578
00:28:59,040 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 1: I thought.

579
00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 2: But no, they're admitting that they did not deserve to

580
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 2: win that game, that the final score was thirty to

581
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 2: twenty eight.

582
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, thirty to twenty eight. There you go.

583
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:14,480
Speaker 2: Let's see here, Fried Daddy writes in He says, we

584
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,800
Speaker 2: all know there's no such thing as momentum in football.

585
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 2: He says, but there is karma. He says, he's the daddy.

586
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 2: He gave some stat about you know something, something something.

587
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:28,200
Speaker 1: He says, Oh, this is good.

588
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:32,400
Speaker 2: So Fry Daddy thinks because a bashing Sam Donald, he thinks,

589
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 2: I am responsible for this outcome because I bashed Sam donal. Yes,

590
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 2: because Sam Donald's play did not merit criticism.

591
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:44,720
Speaker 1: Like, what are we doing? Have you fried daddy? Have

592
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 1: you lost your bloody mind? I like you, dude, but

593
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 1: what are you doing?

594
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:47,680
Speaker 6: This?

595
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 1: Anger never works for anybody. I don't I don't understand.

596
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 2: I know you're all just trying to you know, hit

597
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 2: Ben's buttons there, you know, get the mellow mallar you know,

598
00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:00,560
Speaker 2: melo dramatic mallor and all that, and you guys enjoy it. Uh,

599
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,320
Speaker 2: And that's fine, you know, have you a little fun there.

600
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 2: But I speak the truth and no justice, no peace.

601
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 2: I learned that years ago from all my favorite friends

602
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 2: who love to protest.

603
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 1: No justice, no peace. So there you go.

604
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 2: And if you're not part of the solution, you're part

605
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 2: of the problem. And right now, if you disagree that

606
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 2: the NFL did not meddle with this game, you are

607
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,080
Speaker 2: part of the problem, okay. And if you stay silent,

608
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 2: that means you support what happened in the NFL. Am

609
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:29,480
Speaker 2: I getting all the talking points, right, I think have

610
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 2: I missed any Hey, hey ho ho Goodell's got to go?

Speaker 7: No?

613
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 1: What do we want. That sounds good. How about this?

614
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 1: What do we want? Better? Officials? When do we want it?

615
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 5: Now?

Speaker 2: But there is. Hatch Daddy says, so are you working

627
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 2: into the morning on Christmas Eve? Or is Monday night

628
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 2: your last show? Merry Christmas to you and the crew.

629
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 1: I I swear I don't want.

630
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 3: To know when and where you're going to be, but

631
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 3: exactly what time Ben I sent.

632
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,719
Speaker 2: You know, Scott is our big boss, and he he

633
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 2: had texted me some dates.

634
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 1: And I have a lot of comp days because I

635
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 1: worked most of the holidays during the year, so they

636
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,480
Speaker 1: hooked me up. Have crazy vacation time I do.

637
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 2: I don't take a lot of time off so which

638
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:51,239
Speaker 2: they they will you know, I don't want to get

639
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 2: into it here, but it will hurt them eventually. But

640
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 2: but no, I I I will, you know what I'm saying,

641
00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 2: l but uh, but no, I will say on my

642
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:00,960
Speaker 2: podcast how about this. I don't have it in front

643
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,040
Speaker 2: of me, and I'm not really interested enough to look

644
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 2: hatch daddy. But if you listen to the fifth Hour podcast,

645
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 2: I haven't even done it obviously, because you do it

646
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 2: after this show. So I will put in there my

647
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:12,880
Speaker 2: holiday schedule for you and ferg Dog and Alf And

648
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 2: I think I mentioned it last week and I don't

649
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 2: know if I went into great detail there, but last

650
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 2: last weekend, Yeah, Scrooge says, I understand the Rams got

651
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,920
Speaker 2: ft over. I'm just saying you cannot be confident with

652
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 2: that defense going.

653
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 1: To the playoffs.

654
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,000
Speaker 2: Well, the defense was good enough to win the game,

655
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,560
Speaker 2: and they played well enough in regulation to win the game.

656
00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 1: And the fact that the referees got some the revery.

657
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 1: And here's the thing that kills me.

658
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 2: You know, I know you're not in my house, because

659
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 2: if you were, you'd be a stockar I'd have you arrested.

660
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 2: But I'm watching the game and the playoffs. Okay, that's it.

661
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 2: Thirty to twenty eight, that's the final. In fact, I

662
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:52,400
Speaker 2: couldn't believe when they put the two points up. I'm like, well,

663
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 2: what are you doing? I give anything.

664
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:56,600
Speaker 1: If you really.

665
00:32:56,400 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 2: Thought that that play was a backwards pass, was a fumble,

666
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 2: since you blew the whistle, which is clear and obvious,

667
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 2: you would have redone the two point conversion.

668
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 1: They didn't do that.

669
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 2: They didn't redo the two point conversion. They just gave

670
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 2: Seattle two points. I mean, my god, that was horrific.

671
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,120
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to the phones and let's see

672
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 2: who do we have pays. Let's go to Bubba in uh.

673
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 2: I think he's in Sokel here. I believe, hello, Bubba.

674
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 1: Welcome, Yo. This is the this is the part you talk.

675
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,680
Speaker 1: This is the part you stir it up a little

676
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 1: bit here.

677
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh, I would believe that. Yeah, they got hos

678
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:46,520
Speaker 4: on that play for sure, But I mean, special teams.

679
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 4: You let the guy run back, you know, with what

680
00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:53,520
Speaker 4: some minutes left, seven minutes left to run back. They

681
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:57,040
Speaker 4: were down thirty to fourteen, so you let, you know,

682
00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 4: you let him run back, run it back, and then

683
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 4: they shut down the rams and then they got that

684
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,120
Speaker 4: two point conversion or whatever you want to call it,

685
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:08,279
Speaker 4: but it never should have happened. It was should be

686
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 4: thirty to twenty eight. And then Seattle's defense did pretty

687
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:13,879
Speaker 4: good to shut down the Rams. But if the Rams

688
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,080
Speaker 4: would have got up the field kick the field goal,

689
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,719
Speaker 4: maybe we wouldn't be talking about it. But when you

690
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,840
Speaker 4: go against the NFL, they come back hard with a vengeance.

691
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:26,400
Speaker 4: And what you know, Nikua said yesterday or today or

692
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:30,319
Speaker 4: even tonight, I think that never should have been said,

693
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:32,920
Speaker 4: but he said it, and they got to do with

694
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:36,920
Speaker 4: the consequences, and that two point conversion was a consequence.

695
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, Bob, thank you man. I appreciate that.

696
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 1: I don't know that I'd say Seattle shut the Rams down.

697
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:47,600
Speaker 2: The squed thirty seven points and five hundred and eighty

698
00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 2: one yards of offense.

699
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:48,959
Speaker 1: I mean they.

700
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,839
Speaker 2: They had the ball for forty minutes. There were sixties

701
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,160
Speaker 2: almost like six I think it was close to sixty

702
00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 2: seven minutes because of overtime in the game, and they

703
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 2: had it for forty over forty minutes of game time.

704
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:05,400
Speaker 2: They were in the red zone six times. That's one

705
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 2: of the most pathetic defensive performances I've ever seen. From

706
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 2: the Seattle football team. In fact, I don't know how

707
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:13,440
Speaker 2: you can anyone can take them seriously. When you combine

708
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 2: Sam Darnold and that defense bunch of lightweights, absolute lightweights

709
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 2: on defense, Holy crap, man of us, Just Josh writes

710
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,840
Speaker 2: in he says, I know you don't do shout outs

711
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 2: because this isn't the Morning Zoos show. So if you

712
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,360
Speaker 2: could give the boys at the Jefferson City and TM

713
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:33,440
Speaker 2: Nicholas Hunt a mention, I'm.

714
00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,319
Speaker 1: Sure they would be honored. There you go. This is

715
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:41,200
Speaker 1: Merry Christmas to all the armed surfaces deployed overseas. Godspeed.

716
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 1: There you go.

717
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:45,840
Speaker 2: So, as you know, we don't do shout outs. That

718
00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:47,680
Speaker 2: was more of a mention than a shout out. We

719
00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:51,680
Speaker 2: were okay with mentions, shout outs or something bigger. So

720
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:56,160
Speaker 2: you call me out, you can call me out yet again,

721
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:58,520
Speaker 2: Has there ever been a Thursday night game where Al

722
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:02,840
Speaker 2: Michaels is not bludgeting by the bots and the algorithms.

723
00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:06,759
Speaker 2: People very upset with Al. When Puka Nakua scored the

724
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:11,840
Speaker 2: touchdown that gave the Rams the lead in overtime, people

725
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,919
Speaker 2: very upset that Al did not get excited enough.

726
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 1: I guess he was supposed to pull his.

727
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:21,000
Speaker 2: Pants down at that moment and give everyone a show. Mike,

728
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 2: I hope al I want to make Al Ai. You

729
00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:26,080
Speaker 2: know how NBC uses that dead guy's voice to do

730
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:28,359
Speaker 2: the voiceover on NBA and he's not it's been dead

731
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:29,240
Speaker 2: for twenty years whatever.

732
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:31,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, they brought him back from the.

733
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:35,240
Speaker 2: I hope we have Ai al Michaels just to annoy

734
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 2: these losers, these losers, And I know why people do it.

735
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,240
Speaker 2: You're in the engagement business, and you know that works

736
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:45,320
Speaker 2: well on the algorithm, ripping old people like al Michaels. Right,

737
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:51,560
Speaker 2: guy's an absolute freaking legend, right, and he wasn't enthusiastic

738
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 2: enough for you.

739
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 1: How about you go choke on? I can't say what

740
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:56,879
Speaker 1: I want you to choke on? All right? Anyway, Time

741
00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 1: now for the who Am I? Game?

742
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 2: So Matthew staff had his eighth game with three plus

743
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:07,279
Speaker 2: touchdown passes and no interceptions this season. That breaks a

744
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:11,560
Speaker 2: tie with me for the most in a season all

745
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:14,160
Speaker 2: time by a player aged thirty seven role. This is

746
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,919
Speaker 2: the greatest season ever by a player at that age

747
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:20,720
Speaker 2: or older. Matthew stafford his eighth game with three plus

748
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,520
Speaker 2: touchdown passes and no interceptions. That breaks a tie with

749
00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:25,759
Speaker 2: me for the most in a season ever by a

750
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:28,080
Speaker 2: player age thirty seven or older.

751
00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:31,799
Speaker 1: Who am I the answer? We'll get to it and

752
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:33,280

Speaker 2: And in the history of the NFL, we have never

780
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:56,799
Speaker 2: seen a more egregious bad call.

781
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:00,759
Speaker 1: Never before has the league just given two points to
