73
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: crew because we wouldn't be able to do this farm

75
00:03:54,280 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: a challenge, that's right, absolutely. Shaye is our producer. Steve

Speaker 1: throughout the program. So everybody is there, everybody is in place,

78
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: and carry let's start. Obviously, we had the Black Friday game.

79
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: You know today this.

80
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 5: Is just call it Friday then, yeah, just the Friday

81
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 5: every day. Thank you, thank you, Alex. Yeah, you're right

82
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 5: on time. Yes, but the the Bears get it done.

83
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 1: Twenty four point fifteen in Philadelphia, almost three hundred yards

84
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: on the ground. What were your takeaways from that? Was

85
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,599
Speaker 1: a huge win for the Bears. Demoralizing.

86
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 5: When you can run on a team for three hundred

87
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 5: yards have two separate backs go over one hundred yards,

88
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 5: that means you've been posed your will on this team.

89
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 5: And so you talk about Ben Johnson and Ben Johnson

90
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 5: Higher going to Chicago and you talk about guys coming

91
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 5: in and changing the culture. Right, he said, we're gonna

92
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 5: be a physical team, and a lot of coaches say

93
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 5: that we're going to be physical, We're gonna run the ball,

94
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 5: and we're gonna you know, that's gonna be our identity

95
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 5: early on in the year. They started out one to two.

96
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 5: That wasn't that wasn't who they were yet, and they

97
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 5: got blown out of that second game by the line.

98
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 5: Yes you remember, think about where they've come from exactly

99
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 5: those first two games. People were ready to write them

100
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 5: off and say, like, this is another guy that came

101
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,359
Speaker 5: in and was talking to big talk. Now what are

102
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 5: they saying? This team is reeled off nine of the

103
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,839
Speaker 5: last ten games. They come back in a few games

104
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 5: where you know, like they shouldn't have won, but they

105
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 5: were were able to get it done. So what good

106
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:36,159
Speaker 5: teams do, shows resiliency, shows that they're on their nope

107
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 5: to being a good team. And then you come into

108
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,279
Speaker 5: it on a Black Friday, on a holiday game at home,

109
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 5: defending champs, and you win the way they did today.

110
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 5: Big time win for the Bears, that's my takeaway. It's

111
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 5: a big time win, no doubt.

112
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 1: And you know me, I was out front on this

113
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 1: whole Chicago Bears thing, especially when it comes to Caleb Williams,

114
00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 1: and then I.

115
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:05,039
Speaker 3: Saw his chance. I'm a believer and not a trace

116
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:08,159
Speaker 3: of doubt in my mind.

117
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,039
Speaker 1: I'm in them with Kama.

118
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:17,159
Speaker 3: I believe I couldn't leave him if I tried.

119
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 1: Right there and you know what people say, Oh cayleup,

120
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: they have a big game. I beg to differ. And

121
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: you know what, they were running the ball. It was effective.

122
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: You don't need to force it. That was working. But

123
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 1: when they needed the big touchdown carry you saw it.

124
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 1: That was to comment. That was a big time throw

125
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:42,119
Speaker 1: catch touchdown, sealed the game on the road.

126
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 3: Don't tell me about he only had one hundred and

127
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 3: fifty yard I don't want to hear that. And where

128
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 3: are you? Where are all the doubters?

129
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 1: I want, I dare you to call up here on

130
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 1: Black Friday and tell me you still don't buy the Bears,

131
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 1: because that's all you told me linking the game, you Wilm.

132
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 3: They got them.

133
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 1: When he so many cupcakes, they got a toothache.

134
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 3: They didn't want to buy into the Bears, right. They

135
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 3: just kept winning and winning and winning.

136
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: Oh Caleb, you know how many throws he didn't the

137
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 1: plays he didn't make on the field. This is after

138
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: they won games. They would go back and say, oh,

139
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 1: that was open. That was of course after they won games.

140
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 3: Where are you?

141
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: Where are the Caleb people? Oh Caleb's going to be

142
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 1: benched by mid season. Ben Johnson can't stand him. He's

143
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: he doesn't see the field. What in the NFC North,

144
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 1: guess who's leading the division. They didn't trade for Michael Parsons. Yeah,

145
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 1: they didn't.

146
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 3: Do any of that.

147
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 1: They got a brand new coach who's just instilling his

148
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 1: will on this team. And you were waiting for your one.

149
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: Where's their big win against a good team? I Gary

150
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: tee you.

151
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 3: You're licking your wounds because you're bet against them.

152
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 1: There's no way Philadelphia is gonna lose at home after

153
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 1: they blew a twenty one nothing lead to the Cowboys.

154
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 3: No way.

155
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, this whole Caleb thing will go away and

156
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: you'll see how bad he is, and you'll see that

157
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: the Bears are fraudulent and phony and a three dollar bill.

Speaker 3: But Kerry, you watch the game, Yeah, and i've that throw.

174

Speaker 3: Wasn't that a big throw? Oh?

175
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 5: No, No, that throw was big time. It was seventeen

176
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 5: nine at that time.

177
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 3: The game is still in a Fox.

178
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's yeah. The Eagles are starting to pick up

179
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,559
Speaker 5: more minium. They score, they get back in the game

180
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 5: a little bit. He get them down on the field,

181
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,679
Speaker 5: and that throw to commit was a dime. It's a

182
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,319
Speaker 5: big time throw. It's one of those throws that you

183
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 5: would have to make in the playoffs. Yes, that show

184
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:46,439
Speaker 5: that he can make it. We talk about it all

185
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 5: the time. There's certain throws that have to be made. Yes,

186
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 5: completions that have to be made. We saw in that

187
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 5: Lions game on fourth down Jordan Love did it too. Yes,

188
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 5: that sealed the game.

189
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 1: You gotta make up that that's a time that that's

190
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,680
Speaker 1: a glutsy call right there, You don't the Lions have

191
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 1: the ball at midfield, have a chance to march down

192
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 1: and maybe tie the game, right and with that wacky

193
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: coach Dan gamble Man, they might have gone for two.

194
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 5: Listen, we're talking about yeah, but yeah, I agree with

195
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 5: you on that he's doing too much.

196
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:18,559
Speaker 1: I don't know what else the Bears have to do.

197
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:22,559
Speaker 1: They've that win was so huge. It looks like they

198
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: could win the division. And the thing, they could win

199
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 1: the division. Who would have thought that they would win

200
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 1: the NFC nor?

201
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, I wouldn't have said that. But the thing about

202
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:35,319
Speaker 5: winning rob just like losing. It's contagious, right, you start

203
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 5: doing the same the winning things. You start doing the

204
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 5: right things on a consistent basis, and you start to

205
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 5: get momentum. And then once you start to get momentum,

206
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:46,080
Speaker 5: you get to see the success on tape on game day,

207
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 5: and after that happens, the avalanche of belief begins. And

208
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,080
Speaker 5: I think that's the biggest word that I got from

209
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 5: this game. The takeaway, it's belief. You can see the

210
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 5: players after the game. I was excited to get to win,

211
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,120
Speaker 5: but looking at each other like they believe that to

212
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 5: win this game anyway, and you have to have that

213
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 5: to go into Phillipepia win the game.

214
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,200
Speaker 1: See. I agree, Kelvin and I we argue all the

215
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: time when they talk about changing the culture, and I said,

216
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,959
Speaker 1: I always say, I always hear that. You know, when

217
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 1: you change the culture, when you start to win, and

218
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: we will start believing in what am I right? Carry

219
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,559
Speaker 1: They try to tell me, Oh yeah, Dan Campbell went

220
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:24,440
Speaker 1: there with a different cult.

221
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,959
Speaker 3: No, no, when they started to win, then players buy in.

222
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 3: Now I'm listening to this guy. I see the results.

223
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 3: It ain't no automatic coming.

224
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: Oh we're gonna be smash smash mouthed and we're gonna

225
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 1: do this and we're not Aaron Glenn went in there,

226
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,079
Speaker 1: right he cutting people and all that.

227
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 3: That dude, that that that you know is Carrie. It

228
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,319
Speaker 3: ain't gonna work. You gotta get some wins when you

229
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 3: get results.

230
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 1: When you get results, now you're changing the culture. And

231
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,319
Speaker 1: I don't know what what you're watching, but if you're

232
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 1: not watching the Bears and looking at what this is

233
00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 1: year one of Ben Johnson, Wow, yes, wow, double wow,

234
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:06,559
Speaker 1: and today's win. If you weren't a believer, you better

235
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:10,480

236
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: big time win on the road where people are questioning,

00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:18,199

Speaker 3: in New York.

283
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: We'll talk with him. Cowboys riding high all of a sudden,

284
00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 1: Yes they are. That big win against Philadelphia and another

285
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 1: big win against the Chiefs.

286
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 3: Wow. Ye ain't nobody talking about Jerry Jones? Is moron?

287
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 5: We haven't heard that, lady. Yeah, they're just waiting. They're

288
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 5: just waiting for another chance, but right now they cannot

289
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 5: do it. I like the Cowboys right now, I mean

290
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 5: and offensively like. I like them in Detroit next Thursday

291
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 5: against the Line. If they win that one, I think

292
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 5: they're they're gonna run the table. Yeah, I mean that's

293
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 5: a big game. And the Lions are scuffling a little bit.

294
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 5: They're gonna be without some of their weapons, and they

295
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 5: can't get any pressure on the quarterback right now. I'm

296
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 5: just Jordan Love had all day he did.

297
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 3: No, the Lions are in trouble.

298
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 5: You fall, you fall in line, and you started losing

299
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 5: some of those games you're supposed to win early, and

300
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 5: they catch up to you.

301
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 3: They sure do.

302
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 1: Also, Fuzzy Zeller, the golfers passed to where we'll talk

303
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 1: about his legacy and you know where it fits in.

304
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 1: What should be there? What shouldn't be there, so we

305
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 1: got a lot of stuff to get to. But I mean,

306
00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 1: talk about a bummer of a game to watch.

307
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 3: Forget about.

308
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 1: It wasn't that wanted the Bengals to win or lose

309
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 1: or the Ravens to win or lose. Just was a

310
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 1: terrible game from the turnover standpoint, and Lamar was awful.

311
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 1: Just three turnovers. They lose a game thirty two to four.

312
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 1: Team I don't know that a couple of touchdowns taking

313
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:24,200
Speaker 1: off the board, fumbles just Lamar tossed the ball up

314
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 1: at the goal line at the two or three yard

315
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 1: like like like just kind of flicked it. I don't

316
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:34,479
Speaker 1: know what it was, but there Baltimore lost four fumbles,

317
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 1: including two by Lamar, and he also threw an interception,

318
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: so he had the three and just a really bad game.

319
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 1: There's six and six and second place. They still have

320
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 1: a chance at it because of course Steelers are just

321
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 1: one game ahead of them, so when they play each

322
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: other twice exactly, they still have two games, so it

323
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 1: can be decided there or whatnot.

324
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 3: But I'm gonna start with you, Carrie.

325
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not here to defend Lamar, but I'm

326
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,880
Speaker 1: not so sure that it's just Lamar. When I see

327
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 1: how bad the Ravens are this season.

328
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:14,639
Speaker 5: Yeah it isn't. But this game, I'm putting it on Lamar. Okay,

329
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 5: and you know, you know I'm a big Lamar supporter

330
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 5: from day one. This is the worst Lamar has played

331
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 5: since his rookie year. He really looked bad. And it's

332
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 5: not just this game, it's the last three. He has

333
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 5: no touchdowns the last the last three game. Five interceptions?

334
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 5: Was that it or five turnover? Five turnover interceptions? Yeah,

335
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 5: five turn on But this is the worst he's looked

336
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 5: in a while.

337
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:35,360
Speaker 3: Now.

338
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 5: I don't know if it's health, and I'm not going

339
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:39,200
Speaker 5: to even get into that because it doesn't really matter

340
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 5: if you're out there playing I said it all the time,

341
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,439
Speaker 5: if you're out there playing your fair game. And so

342
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 5: for him to come out there and be so casual

343
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:49,679
Speaker 5: and lacks of days ago with the ball and just

344
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:52,639
Speaker 5: loose with the ball like you have to protect the

345
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:54,119
Speaker 5: ball to win, doesn't matter how good you.

346
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,439
Speaker 3: I don't wanted to five years when he was just

347
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 3: like he just threw the ball up.

348
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:02,439
Speaker 5: Like yeah, just it's not it's not sound football. And

349
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 5: that comes to that comes from top but as a

350
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 5: star player, you got to know that, especially with the

351
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 5: Baltimore Ravens history in these last three years or so,

352
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 5: in the playoffs with chances to win, they never take

353
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,360
Speaker 5: care of the ball. So to go into a big

354
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,600
Speaker 5: game one hundred per to go into a big game

355
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,439
Speaker 5: like this and you be Lamar Jackson and to go

356
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 5: and it was a big game.

357
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: You know what, you love him the Bengals at home,

358
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,639
Speaker 1: You're at home, Joe Burrow's first game back. Some russ

359
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 1: gonna be on him, but you already know what you're

360
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 1: at stake. And to lose like they did in that

361
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 1: fashion to a three and eight Bengals team, oh.

362
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 5: Rob, those games happened, But when you are one in five,

363
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:44,879
Speaker 5: those games can't happen.

364
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:46,439
Speaker 3: You got to be perfect from here on out. And

365
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 3: so the.

366
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 5: Casual nature of the way that he played in that game,

367
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 5: he was missing easy throws, he wasn't on time.

368
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 3: It did not look good at all.

369
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 5: And so for this Ravens team, I know a lot

370
00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:59,439
Speaker 5: of people are going to try to bury him.

371
00:18:59,480 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 3: Now.

372
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:01,679
Speaker 5: See they're six and six and they don't look like

373
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 5: the team we thought. It's not over. But if they're

374
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 5: gonna win, when we talked about them having all the

375
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 5: success they have. We give Lamar allow the credit. When

376
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 5: they lose this way, you gotta give him some blame too.

377
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:13,680
Speaker 5: And so I'm just gonna be on record and say

378
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 5: this is one of the worst performances I've seen of him.

379
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,879
Speaker 3: That's fair. But I got somebody else on you to

380
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 3: heat some blame on.

381
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 1: You got John Harball, because you know why, it ain't

382
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 1: just about the offense. They couldn't get off the field. Defensively,

383
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 1: they've struggled. We saw them blow game one of the

384
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,159
Speaker 1: season they had. They scored forty points. Lamar put on

385
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 1: a clinic. Of course, okay, fump turnovers, fumbles, defense couldn't

386
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,400
Speaker 1: stop the Bills.

387
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 3: I mean, like, let's be it has been.

388
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 1: An awful year for all facets of the Ravens. At

389
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:55,399
Speaker 1: some point, can you stop saying, Okay, John Harball won

390
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,439
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl back ten years, eight years ago.

391
00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,360
Speaker 3: Whenever it was like it was a little long time

392
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:01,679
Speaker 3: ago to me.

393
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 1: Every year since they had Lamar, and disappointingly, when you

394
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 1: look at them and go, dude, they got everything you

395
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: should you need and they haven't been able to get

396
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 1: to that next step. How long do you keep doing

397
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:18,479
Speaker 1: the same thing with John Harball and not trying to

398
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:22,199
Speaker 1: make a fix or change. And I'm gonna give you one.

399
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 1: And the difference is he did win. So I understand

400
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 1: that for the first few years. Okay, you still believe,

401
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,119
Speaker 1: well he won, he got us there. Let's give him

402
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 1: a shot. But you remember in Tampa Bay with Tony Dungee,

403
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,919
Speaker 1: couldn't win, like they had an unbelievable defense, had everything

404
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:46,200
Speaker 1: Tony Dungee that every year, couldn't win. They finally said, okay,

405
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,719
Speaker 1: they let him go, bought in John Gruden, and they

406
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:50,440
Speaker 1: won a Super Bowl.

407
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 3: Like like.

408
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,920
Speaker 1: I've seen this happen and one guy might be able

409
00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 1: to get you to a certain point, but he had

410
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:04,159
Speaker 1: since he's had Lamar, they haven't done sloppy play, just

411
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 1: mistakes in that AFC game. Championship game was a championship

412
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: game against the against Kansas City in Baltimore, was eight

413
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,440
Speaker 1: flowers like fumbled.

414
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 3: At the like they always make the mistakes.

415
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:25,919
Speaker 5: Last year against uh the Buffalo Mark Andrews like in

416
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 5: their stars. These aren't random players like right to them,

417
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 5: Like seriously, everybody owe the throat no no, no, no

418
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 5: catch that ball that ball thrown to you.

419
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 3: Okay, you're open, catch the ball. Like this keeps happening.

420
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: And you could say, well, you can't blame the coach

421
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 1: because the players aren't making plays. But let me tell

422
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 1: you this, you can because when the players make plays,

423
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 1: we give the coach credit. Oh, he got them brought up,

424
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:58,400
Speaker 1: he got them ready to play, right, So we give

425
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:01,879
Speaker 1: the coach credit. When stuff goes good, he gets a

426
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 1: new contract, he gets a raise, all of this. But

427
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 1: when his players aren't focused, aren't doing you gotta also

428
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,680
Speaker 1: give him blame as well. One goes with the other.

429
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 1: It's not either or unless they win the Super Bowl.

430
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 1: I would fire John Harball at the end of the season.

431
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 1: I would I need somebody new. I don't want to

432
00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:31,639
Speaker 1: waste another year with Lamar. Okay, Like, don't kid yourself.

433
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 1: The Packers didn't do what they needed to do during

434
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:35,960
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. After they won to twenty ten, they never

435
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,200
Speaker 1: got back. How many times did we watch defense give

436
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 1: up forty points in the playoff game? You could go

437
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 1: talk about Aaron Rodgers and dude, how many how many

438
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,679
Speaker 1: times did they lose when Aaron Rodgers never got the

439
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:47,200
Speaker 1: ball back?

440
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:47,440
Speaker 3: Yep?

441
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 1: You know, oh Rob, you just love it. I'm telling you,

442
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 1: I watched the game. You know what I'm talking about

443
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 1: where he There was a game against Arizona. Th was

444
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 1: a year they went to the Super Ball, right, Aaron

445
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 1: Rodger throws a hail Mary, remember that to tide the game.

446
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,400
Speaker 1: Arizona gainst the ball, they marched down and win the game.

447
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 1: He never touched them.

448
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,000
Speaker 5: And then you go, well, Aaron Rodgers fail in the playoffs,

449
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 5: the one against Tom Brady. You kick a field goal

450
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,679
Speaker 5: and not thank you, the ball in Aaron Rodgers hand

451
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 5: to win the game.

452
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, how Matt lunfortunately been run out of Green Bay.

453
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:21,440
Speaker 3: I'm sorry.

454
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 1: I want Aaron Rodgers to throw an interception incompletion or pick. Okay,

455
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 1: but in no way I'm kicking with that little time

456
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 1: left with Breaking Brady getting the ball back.

457
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. I know that.

458
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:40,080
Speaker 1: So all I'm saying is, at some point Lamar ain't

459
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:43,360
Speaker 1: endless shrimp at the buffet, because it's gonna run out

460
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 1: at some point.

461
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 5: And right now it's not looking pretty on the longevity

462
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,359
Speaker 5: of what he can do as being the Lamar Jackson.

463
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,920
Speaker 3: That's he's getting hurt. And we knew that.

464
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 5: We knew that was going to be a possibility with

465
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 5: all the running he's doing one So you're definitely right,

466
00:23:58,640 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 5: you have to maximize the kid.

467
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 1: I'm at this point I think you have to start

468
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 1: to look at it and go, what is the constant

469
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: and not working? It's just not it doesn't feel good,

470
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 1: the chemistry. Something is off on that team. And I

471
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 1: give it. I'm with you, and I love to watch

472
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 1: Lamar play.

473
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 3: It was painful to watch that kid.

474
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,880
Speaker 5: It was it was right, yes, like in my mind

475
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 5: whenever I see situations like that happen, especially with people

476
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,400
Speaker 5: that have been targeted in the past about their play

477
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 5: or their style of play or what they can do,

478
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 5: what they can't do. The fact that he was so bad,

479
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 5: Like I knew today was going to be a terrible day,

480
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 5: like for me, Like I was right. They're gonna they're

481
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,480
Speaker 5: gonna dissect this and be like I told you, like

482
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:43,119
Speaker 5: I don't want.

483
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:43,399
Speaker 3: To hear all that.

484
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 5: You know, how good in the kid is, but if

485
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 5: you have one bad game like this and it's just magnified.

486
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,439
Speaker 1: Too, absolutely, and and and you if you want to

487
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,680
Speaker 1: referendum on his career, stop, Okay, the m VPS. You

488
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 1: should have won last year. They jacked them off on

489
00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 1: that one, which was bad. But but eight seven seven

490
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:04,120
Speaker 1: ninety nine on Fox is the telephone number eight seven

491
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:08,480

493
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 1: blame here? What needs to change? I just don't think

494
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 1: you could bring John Harbaugh back, like, like seriously, I

495
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:26,199
Speaker 1: remember when Jim Harbaugh, you know they they You remember

496
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 1: he had that. They went to the Super Bowl once

497
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,720
Speaker 1: and the NFC Championship game like three times in his

498
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 1: four years or something, and sometimes you need a new messenger.

499
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 3: And he lost to his brother. Yep, that was the

500
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:41,640
Speaker 3: Super Bowl. Remember that when the lights went out? Yeah? Yes,

501
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:44,280

00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:53,439
Speaker 1: Is this a Lamar issue? Is this a John Harbar issue?

00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 1: The Derek Henry cost him a two games? Or this

506
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 1: go out the season? Plenty of blaming go around, right

507
00:25:58,240 --> 00:25:59,920

Speaker 1: She's a Rhodes scholar? All right, there you go like that.

559
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 1: But I do want to say this real quick. And

560
00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 1: we were just talking about Fuzzy Zeller and his yeah obituary,

561
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: and just to prove the point that I was saying

562
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:56,239
Speaker 1: to you, Carrie, I looked up Richard Nixon's obituary and

563
00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 1: the headline in the New York Times in nineteen ninety

564
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 1: four was the thirty seventh President Richard Nixon eighty one

565
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 1: dies And then for his kicker like who he was,

566
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 1: what it said a master of politics, undone by Watergate.

567
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 1: So his worst moment, of you though he did the

568
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,960
Speaker 1: other all these other things, is included because it was

569
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 1: that big Watergate.

570
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 5: And the key thing about that, which we talked about

571
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 5: off air, is from a journalism perspective, that makes sense.

572
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 5: Rights when you think of Richard Nixon, Watergate of course

573
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 5: comes to mind. We're still to this day think about spygate,

574
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 5: the flake gate that's all derived from.

575
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,640
Speaker 3: Watergate, like a scandal.

576
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 1: That's why we always say that, oh the you know, spygate,

577
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 1: what a spy gate?

578
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,480
Speaker 3: Watergate was a hotel in DC.

579
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 1: All right, here we go, so our number three here

580
00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 1: on the program, and there's some news and.

581
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:13,280
Speaker 3: Carrie, one of the soccer teams, right Iran, Right, yes,

582
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:15,720

584
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 1: States because of some issues with credentials and all kinds

585
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 1: of stuff. So let me just get exactly here the

586
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 1: story I thought I had it in front of me.

587
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, and it opens up a big can of

588
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 1: worms for other places and other you know, where we

589
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 1: are in this country right now is if you're foreign foreigners,

590
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,880
Speaker 1: like tourism is down. Canadians who used to go to

591
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 1: Australia to Las Vegas, like, attendance is down.

592
00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 3: People have stopped coming.

593
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:04,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, they're not coming because of visa issues. Right,

594
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 5: So trying to enter into the US the games are

595
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 5: going to be held in is it DC? And yeah,

596
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 5: a lot of a lot of their employees and a

597
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 5: lot of the people that are associated with the Iran

598
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 5: soccer team have been denied entry into the US. So

599
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,160
Speaker 5: that's been the big issue with things that are happening

600
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 5: right now. They said there was no immediate comment from

601
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 5: the White House on the situation, but yeah, said the

602
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 5: federation that reached out to the FIFA and hoped it

603
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 5: could help resolve the issue. Soccer's ruling body didn't immediately

604
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 5: immediately reply to a request for comments. So right now,

605
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,440
Speaker 5: it seems like there's a lot of a lot of

606
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:41,720
Speaker 5: dust uff going on on on with that situation and

607

00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 1: look a certain way. There's a lot of issues and

626
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 1: you could, you know, deal with immigration or whatever you

627
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:38,239
Speaker 1: want to do, you know, and I understand that if

628
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 1: you're here illegally, but the way it's been done in

629
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:44,840
Speaker 1: the video and the stuff is really eye opening. And

630
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 1: for somebody who's foreign, is it like, I don't think

631
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 1: I would want to come to the country at this

632
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:57,680
Speaker 1: point if I was a foreigner, like to visit or

633
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 1: just to see what's happened. So is there a possibility

634
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:05,560
Speaker 1: that other countries decide that they don't want to come?

635
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 1: You know, the US has a lot of big soccer

636
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 1: events right coming up in the next right, the World Cup.

637
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,640
Speaker 3: And a couple other big the Olympics as well. Yeah,

638
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:19,720
Speaker 3: and the Olympics. That's another one. That's what I was thinking.

639
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 1: And now you might have it where people are saying,

640
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:27,120
Speaker 1: I don't know, the United States isn't a friendly place

641
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 1: to come to right now with what's going on, and

642
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:33,640
Speaker 1: whether or not you would want to take part. So

643
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:35,600
Speaker 1: as an athlete, and this is always just what I'm

644
00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 1: asking you because I remember, I'm old enough to remember

645
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,440
Speaker 1: when we boycott it, and I say we the United

646
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 1: States boycotted the nineteen eighty Olympics in Russia. They were

647
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 1: doing stuff the Soviet Union and all that, and a

648
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 1: lot of you know, athletes who have trained for three

649
00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 1: four years, you know, for that opportunity, and at the time,

650
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 1: I think it was Jimmy Carter just said we're not going.

651
00:33:56,960 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 3: To take part in that. I also always was very.

652
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,600
Speaker 1: I thought it was weird that we took part in

653
00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 1: the Olympics in Berlin when Hitler was there and Jesse Owens,

654
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:14,280
Speaker 1: oh yeah, and they didn't allow Jewish athletes like Marty

655
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:18,760
Speaker 1: Glickman and people like that who were track stars to participate,

656
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:22,760
Speaker 1: Like we actually went along with that and didn't allow

657
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,319
Speaker 1: them to be on the team or come after they

658
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 1: had done that. I thought we should have probably to

659
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:33,320
Speaker 1: United States not taken part of the Olympics in Berlin,

660
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:37,200
Speaker 1: right nineteen thirty six, and we know Jesse Owens made

661
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 1: Hitler like a full layer in front of them or

662
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 1: whatever and all that stuff. Where are you on politics

663
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:47,640
Speaker 1: and sports and these issues, because we have one now

664
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 1: coming up with all these events.

665
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean just the tip of the iceberg of

666
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 5: what we're talking about right now. Think about what you

667
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:55,839
Speaker 5: just said, so that nineteen thirty six one say we

668
00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:58,799
Speaker 5: do boycott and we don't take part like these people

669
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 5: that have been these athletes that have been the whole

670
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 5: lives to get one shot at this thing to represent

671
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,160
Speaker 5: their country and you know, bring home the goal for

672
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,920
Speaker 5: the country for themselves. If we decide not to do

673
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,359
Speaker 5: that and go to Germany and be a part of that,

674
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,760
Speaker 5: we don't have that iconic moment with Jesse Owens raising

675
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 5: the hand up in defiance of that situation and winning

676
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,920
Speaker 5: it right like that, that's true, But what about the

677
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:24,799
Speaker 5: Jewish athletes who trained as well.

678
00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:28,360
Speaker 1: We turned our backs on them and they were American citizen. Yes,

679
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:30,320
Speaker 1: I'm just know you're right one hundred percent.

680
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:32,920
Speaker 5: So you say, you talk about the Jewish community, and

681
00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:36,080
Speaker 5: obviously happened that slender happened in that moment, and we

682
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:36,839
Speaker 5: allowed it.

683
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 3: We allowed it.

684
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:40,360
Speaker 5: But we've also had the African American culture that have

685
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:44,560
Speaker 5: taken just as many hits as well and still stand

686
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 5: up and be able to go apart and be a

687
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:49,359
Speaker 5: part of this and represent any underserved community or any

688
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,920
Speaker 5: underserved person to go out there and still represent themselves

689
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,719
Speaker 5: and actually win it like that matters to me as well, I.

690
00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:58,040
Speaker 1: Think, But I don't know, like if it would have

691
00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 1: been that and said don't bring any black people or

692
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:06,040
Speaker 1: Jews here, you know what I mean? Do you know

693
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:10,560
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like, we get they didn't want Jewish

694
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 1: people there because of what was going on in Nazi

695
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,360
Speaker 1: Germany and all that. I just wonder now, like the

696
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:21,359
Speaker 1: climate of where we are as this country that has

697
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:22,080
Speaker 1: all these.

698
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:25,400
Speaker 3: People from all over, Like you go, I've been to Japan.

699
00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 3: Have you been to Japan? Of course? Okay, ninety nine

700
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 3: percent homogenius.

701
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 1: Everybody's japaneseeah, that's where you know, like a lot of

702
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 1: countries are like that, where everybody. United States is not

703
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,920
Speaker 1: that such a melting pot. We have so many people

704
00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:44,600
Speaker 1: from all over. I'm from New York City. You walk

705
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,240
Speaker 1: the street, you might run into people from fifty different

706
00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 1: places around the world.

707
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 3: It's incredible.

708
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:52,719
Speaker 5: No, No, I think we are more inclined now to

709
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,080
Speaker 5: take that stand that you're talking about. I mean, there's

710
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 5: we have friends that could be affected by this, right,

711
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,720
Speaker 5: we have people that we actually know, which makes it different.

712
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:04,000
Speaker 1: Right, what about if you're a foreign country now and

713
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,880
Speaker 1: you see the temperature of the United States. Yes, I

714
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:11,479
Speaker 1: think that there's a there's a conversation. Despite you wanted

715
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:13,839
Speaker 1: to be a part of the World Cup or the Olympics,

716
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:17,800
Speaker 1: there are issues that are bigger and how we're treated

717
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:22,760
Speaker 1: as a group of people because supposedly, I always believed

718
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 1: or thought the Olympics was we were supposed to set

719
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 1: down our differences, come together as a world and compete, right,

720
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:32,719
Speaker 1: That's that I thought that was what the.

721
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,640
Speaker 5: Olympics was about. That is not what it's all about.

722
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 5: It's not about all of us coming together. They're all

723
00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:38,800
Speaker 5: trying to come together to win for their country.

724
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,000
Speaker 1: No, no, no, I agree, But I'm saying, like, like,

725
00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:44,719
Speaker 1: coming from all over the world, different people qualify, you

726
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 1: know what I mean, have a chance to compete with everybody.

727
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:50,279
Speaker 1: That's what That's what I mean. And when I say

728
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 1: come together, but now the temperature in the United States

729
00:37:56,800 --> 00:38:03,239
Speaker 1: is hot. If you're foreign, yeah, and you expect other

730
00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 1: countries to join this or or decide that maybe they

731
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:09,520
Speaker 1: don't want to come. Look at how Mexican Mexican people

732
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 1: have been treated. If you're Mexico, do you really want

733
00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:16,040
Speaker 1: to be a part of it. I know you want

734
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:18,759
Speaker 1: your soccer team to be involved, you want a chance

735
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:19,800
Speaker 1: to win and all.

736
00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:21,960
Speaker 3: That, but at what cost?

737
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:25,360
Speaker 1: Look at what we've done with the fights of Canada,

738
00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 1: our friends to the north. Have we ever been in

739
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 1: any kind of issue with Canada.

740
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 5: What is no one but but we've had a riff

741
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,839
Speaker 5: with Canada. I'm just the tariffs and stuff. Yeah, no,

742
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 5: it's the climate's hot. And I think if you want

743
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,279
Speaker 5: to take the stands like Iran did and not be

744
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,560
Speaker 5: a part of it because you're being you're being subjugated

745
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:49,720
Speaker 5: to something that seems unfair, right.

746
00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 3: Right, Why are we picking up?

747
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:52,879
Speaker 1: Why are you picking us out out of Like we're

748
00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,680
Speaker 1: here to play soccer, right, why can't we come like

749
00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:56,359
Speaker 1: everybody else?

750
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,480
Speaker 3: One hundred percent I would I would be okay with that.

751
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:01,160
Speaker 5: But I also will be okay with the team that

752
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:04,680
Speaker 5: or the country that comes and still tries to fight

753
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 5: and win, win the goal for the country.

754
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,359
Speaker 3: So there's this. This is a this is a touch

755
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:09,759
Speaker 3: on rob. It's one of those ones that can go

756
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 3: either way.

757
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:14,279
Speaker 1: I always believe in UH in order to get you

758
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:16,400
Speaker 1: have to give in order to get, and sometimes you

759
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:19,879
Speaker 1: have to take hard stances and you have to make

760
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 1: a sacrifice. The only way you get change in the

761
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:26,919
Speaker 1: world is through sacrifice. People who think that the other

762
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 1: people are just going to one day flip and say, oh, yeah,

763
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:31,600
Speaker 1: you know what, we haven't been treated you right, We're

764
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 1: gonna do right by you.

765
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:35,680
Speaker 3: Not usually how it works, Alex? What do you have?

766
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 4: So I will say this, very deep, very riveting, had

767
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:42,480
Speaker 4: to be talked about World Cups of phenomenons the only

768
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:45,160
Speaker 4: time anybody watches soccer here in this country. But Rob,

769
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:48,200
Speaker 4: I have a fun, light, interesting question for you. Yes,

770
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 4: I've been with you now for eight years. Yes, you

771
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,880
Speaker 4: have never talked soccer. How is it that on the

772
00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 4: day Rob g is not here, we're talking soccer. Is

773
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 4: there something going on in like an undertone here or

774
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:00,480
Speaker 4: something's a persian?

775
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 3: Dude? You knew I was coming. I'm your audience soccer fan.

776
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 1: That he was all right, No, no, no, I just

777
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,840
Speaker 1: I thought when when that story was trending, you know

778
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:16,920
Speaker 1: on ESPN dot com, it was like the second or

779
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:17,439
Speaker 1: third story.

780
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 3: It's a huge state.

781
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,399
Speaker 5: He knows I'll have that conversation with them doing that's

782
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 5: a good point, that's right, And I think, as you know,

783
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:23,920
Speaker 5: Alex do.

784
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:27,280
Speaker 1: While eight years on this show we talk about everything

785
00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 1: like if it's if it's relevant, you know, and that

786
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:32,719
Speaker 1: story broke today. We felt it was relevant and we

787
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 1: want to give the listeners a chance to chime in

788
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:39,840
Speaker 1: eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox, not a political show.

789
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:42,280
Speaker 3: Okay, so I don't want to stop with the political.

790
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:47,160
Speaker 1: If you were a foreign country currently today, would you

791
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:50,439
Speaker 1: feel comfortable coming to the United States that it's really

792
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:54,200
Speaker 1: that simple? Would you say, I'm we're gonna boycott because

793
00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:56,520
Speaker 1: we don't like what's going on. If I Ran can't come,

794
00:40:56,600 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 1: then we're not coming. Either we're all coming or no,

795
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:03,799
Speaker 1: nobody's coming. And that's a stance eight seven seven ninety

796
00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,000
Speaker 1: nine on Fox. And I want to tell you the story.

797
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:10,080
Speaker 1: So it was a legendary sports writer in New York.

798
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:13,560
Speaker 1: His name was Dick Young. Late Dick Young wrote for

799
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:18,279
Speaker 1: the Daily News. And uh, Larry Holmes was having his

800
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 1: training in Las Vegas, and he saw Dick Young and

801
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:26,560
Speaker 1: he told everybody, said to the other writers, boxing writers,

802
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:27,719
Speaker 1: he can't be in here.

803
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:29,279
Speaker 3: Get rid of this guy. Throw them out.

804
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:32,480
Speaker 1: Tell these people Dick Young, throw them out. And the

805
00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 1: other writers all who weren't friends with Dick Young or whatever,

806
00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,960
Speaker 1: but the other writers who were covered, they all, when

807
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:41,480
Speaker 1: they threw Dick Young out, walked out with Dick Young.

808
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 5: Because if you're gonna throw Dick Young out, you can

809
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:46,840
Speaker 5: throw us out as well, exactly, And that was exactly

810
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:47,640
Speaker 5: what it was.

811
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:51,000
Speaker 1: Was like, no, we don't we we don't work with

812
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,280
Speaker 1: Dick Young. He might not even be a friend of mine.

813
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:56,000
Speaker 1: But either he gets to stay because this is an

814
00:41:56,040 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 1: open training session for the media, and if he doesn't

815
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:01,680
Speaker 1: get to state and none of us are staying, and

816
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:03,319
Speaker 1: they were like no, no, you guys can no, no,

817
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:06,240
Speaker 1: no one or the other. Guess what happened. They allowed

818
00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:08,120
Speaker 1: Dick Young in and the rest of the media came

819
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:10,759
Speaker 1: back in all right eight seven, seven ninety nine on

820
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:14,920
Speaker 1: Fox I want to hear your conversation on this some

821
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:18,279
Speaker 1: heavy stuff on a funky flashback Friday. It is the

822
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:21,200
Speaker 1: Odd couple, Rob Parker Kerry Roads right here on Fox

823
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:21,960
Speaker 1: Sports Radio.

824
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:23,959
Speaker 3: Stick and stay.

825
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,040
Speaker 4: Because sometimes the hardest conversations are meant

826
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:28,600
Speaker 3: To have in the usbay if we still come
