Enjoying this's the Earth rotates on its axis. 60 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: But he was the one who got me saying, oh 61 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: dead lab shrim Like he would be talking about you know, 62 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: John Stockton and Carl Malone could be on the court 63 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: and he'd be like, Howard Eisley is the best player 64 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: on the court right now, Like you're going, what are 65 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: you talking about? Oh? Yeah, what he compares. He'll take 66 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: like just a random player and say that's that's Isaiah Thomas, 67 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: that's Magic Johnson. You know, just I think one time 68 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,279 Speaker 1: he said, Bill he's on the bench right now. I know. Uh, 69 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: Eric Piatkowski he said should replace Jerry West as the 70 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: logo that one time. Um, well, I want to get 71 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: Frank end all of this, but I did. Let's start 72 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: because you live. Not only do you live in Arizona, 73 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 1: I'm not going to give out your address, but you 74 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: live very close to the Cardinals facility and you've been 75 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: connected to the team for a while. So give me 76 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 1: your thoughts first and foremost on four and OZH. I'm cautious. 77 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 1: I'm cautious with everything because I'm also you know, John Gruden, 78 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 1: who's a friend of mine, who's become a pretty close 79 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: friend of mine with the Raiders, and uh, you know, 80 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: to tell you what, man, it was a tremendous loss. 81 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,599 Speaker 1: Last night, we got a good what you call moral victory. No, 82 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 1: I was thinking about sending something to Derek Carr because 83 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: I didn't text him any motivation this week. But usually 84 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: I'll send him something like, Derek, do something good this week. Man, 85 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: I didn't do something. Does he enjoy that? He's never 86 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 1: texted back, so no, he no, he's great. I actually said, 87 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:51,919 Speaker 1: I'm sorry I keep bothering you with this stuff. He's no, 88 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 1: He's like, no, keep it coming. It's actually working. Yeah. 89 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 1: So that's the reason they were three and oh yeah, 90 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: that's what I was saying, and then they lost that. 91 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 1: But Derek are and Gruden. That goes back to it. 92 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 1: I'm just telling you this to talk about how to 93 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: get into the Cardinals thing. But that goes back to 94 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 1: the first time I ever met or not met John. 95 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 1: But the first time ever did Gruden makeup with Gruden 96 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: was at a quarterback camp in Florida and Derek Carr 97 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: was the QB one that week or whatever, so he 98 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,359 Speaker 1: was It was his birthday too, so we were singing 99 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 1: Happy birthday, man. Blown out the candles for young Derek Carr. Man, 100 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 1: what a great I did a speaking engagement with Derek 101 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 1: Carr when he was at Fresno State. Okay, what a 102 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 1: great super see why people following indibly incredibly nice. Yeah, 103 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: and people who say he's not a good leader don't 104 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: know anything about him. He's just quiet to the press. 105 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: He's just a different time. So as far as with 106 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: the Cardinals, what happened there was there's a broadcaster who 107 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: also works NFL Network now, lant Zerline in Houston, and 108 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: his dad coached the line here with the Cardinals, Larry Zerline, 109 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:04,600 Speaker 1: and he said, hey, do you want to get you know, 110 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 1: Steve Cime's a fan of yours. And I'd forgotten come 111 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 1: had gone to see me in North Carolina at a 112 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,479 Speaker 1: place called Charlie Good Nights in Raleigh. And I didn't 113 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: even remember all this, but um, they invited me out 114 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: to come, you know, take a look at the you know, 115 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: just hang out for a few minutes or something like that. 116 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: And I did, and want you to bring my son whatever. 117 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: And then when they were doing what was the Amazon 118 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: show called All or Nothing? And I didn't have a 119 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: ba impression. I had nothing, but I just had a hat. 120 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,599 Speaker 1: I got a hat when I got here and I 121 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 1: threw on a pair of glasses and I just started swearing. 122 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 1: So I started was doing Gruden and stuff like that. 123 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: He was still in broadcasting at the time. I go 124 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:43,840 Speaker 1: up there. I talked to the team and it's going 125 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: pretty well. But then I put it can I swear 126 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 1: on this or do you bleep it out? Or what 127 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 1: do you do on your podcast? So, because I don't 128 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,039 Speaker 1: normally swear that much, but I just wanted you to weep. 129 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 1: So I put on the hat, I put on the glasses, 130 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: and because it was BA I just got up there. 131 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 1: I put it on and then looked at the team 132 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 1: and went, what the for you guys doing out there? Man? 133 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: That was the worst bunch of I've ever seen in 134 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: my entire laugh Get to get to get your heads 135 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: in the game, man. And I didn't even really have 136 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 1: that much of the oppression. That just the look and 137 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: Larry stood up, Fitzgerald and everybody was like a standing ovation. 138 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: They went crazy, you know, And since then, you know, 139 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 1: you never know when something like that's gonna, you know, 140 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: work or not. It's tough when you're going to people 141 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: think that because you do comedy and they see you 142 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: do it on TV or they hear you on a 143 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 1: podcast or something that they think you could just do 144 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: it anywhere. You go into an NFL locker room, that's 145 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: totally different. You're not part of the group, you're not 146 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: part of the team. It's a little bit easier when 147 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 1: you're inside and you've been through the trenches and you've 148 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: done this kind of stuff and there's camaraderie. Right If 149 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: somebody comes back to speak to the team, they're like, Oh, 150 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: this guy was in the league for ten years. You know, 151 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 1: he's won a couple of Super Bowls. He knows what 152 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: it takes it, you know. I mean, I'm nussed. You know, 153 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 1: I'm some goofy little court jester come in there. So 154 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 1: when you can do something that connects with the guys, 155 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: you know, when I do that with the Raiders, I've 156 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: done I've spoken of the Raiders twice and they won 157 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: both games, and one was against the Cardinals a few 158 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: years Hey, what's up with that? I'm I'm a mercenary. 159 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 1: I'm a mercenary whatever whatever was needed. You know that 160 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 1: that they were they were playing terribly. That was a 161 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: couple of years ago, and I remember going they were 162 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 1: here in town and that was a that was an 163 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: inseason game, a regular season game, and you just you 164 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 1: could feel, you know, you're here, Gruten just swearing from 165 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 1: the other room, and its knock gunn wood if you're 166 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 1: with me, and there maybe a knock or two. I 167 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 1: mean it was it was a down time and uh 168 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,719 Speaker 1: and they won that game. And uh, He's like, I'm 169 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: sending you a game ball man, Like you're not sending 170 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: me a game ball. Three weeks later, I get a 171 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: game ball, you know, spray painted with everything. I'm like, 172 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 1: all these linemen go through life and no matter who 173 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: they are, somebody somebody, some people never get a game boat. 174 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: I have two. Now I have two, sending you another 175 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: game ball man. So so let me tell you that. 176 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 1: The other part of it is so then I coached 177 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: flag football and Carson come won of one of Steve's 178 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: kids was on the team. He played with my son 179 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: for a little bit, so uh and he would even 180 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: text Scruten. He's, you know, during the game, a picture 181 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 1: of me. I remember, I had a backpack on, and 182 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,679 Speaker 1: Crud's like, they're not gonna win an f and game 183 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: with that guy coach. So um, you know, it's funny, 184 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 1: how you see, because you don't think about the relationships 185 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 1: that go on in you know, within professional sports. You 186 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: think this GM probably hates this year. But they can't. 187 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: They can't. They have to be friends, right, because then 188 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: they can make deals when if you don't like somebody, 189 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 1: you're not making a deal them. And there's I get 190 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 1: this feeling by just a few of the gems that 191 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 1: I've met and some of the you know, some of 192 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: the exacts that you know, there's a lot of people 193 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 1: people on the outside looking how could they make that trade? 194 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,719 Speaker 1: That's the stupidest trade I've ever seen. But sometimes they 195 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 1: position it's like, well, you do it this time and 196 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 1: then we'll figure something out in the There's a lot 197 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 1: of that kind of stuff, but the the the end 198 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: result might be something different because you don't know who's 199 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: gonna last. Were sure. So there's there's a lot of 200 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 1: trust between these guys and making deals and things like that. 201 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 1: I mean, so, is it true that you called Steve 202 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:11,439 Speaker 1: Kim on Draft Day as John Gruden from like a 203 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 1: different number? No, that was the Yahoo Sports took that. 204 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: It was my own number, And I texted him, you 205 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: know the memos thing in the app. It's like it's hey, 206 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 1: it's John Man. What do you say we trade, make 207 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 1: a good trade. Uh. I don't remember who it was, 208 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: but it's like, well trade up to number three, you 209 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: trade for this, and then we're all everybody's happy, man, okay. 210 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: And that got out. I think it was Dad Patrick 211 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,199 Speaker 1: or something like that that I took because Steve called in. 212 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: Steve called in and he was talking about it. But 213 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: people only heard parts of it that I called him 214 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 1: as John Gruden and then they made up the rest 215 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: of the story that became like national news. Oh yeah, 216 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: it was huge.

I can't believe he messed 219 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: up the draft, you know, you know I didn't he 220 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 1: knew it was me. I would not mess with a 221 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,959 Speaker 1: friend in that situation and do that type of thing. 222 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,320 Speaker 1: I mean, something similar happened. Uh what was that? What 223 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 1: was the other thing that just happened recently? Oh?

And you know, the more famous 257 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: somebody is, the harder it is to get them to 258 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 1: go somewhere or nail something down. Like I've been around 259 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 1: some super super famous people and they're like, I'll try 260 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 1: to get there, I'll try to get there, and then 261 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 1: you just go they're not gonna come. And he was 262 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: one that did end up showing up. It's it's one 263 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: of those that's uh. I remember saying to him. I'm like, 264 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 1: we're talking about Lebron and how Lebron was the most famous, 265 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 1: you know, probably the number one basketball player in the world, 266 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 1: and this is right, JJ's big, but he's not, you know. 267 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: But I mean JJ was not to where he was 268 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: even that he was almost to the pinnacle being one 269 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 1: of the faces of the NFL, but he wasn't quite 270 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: there yet. And we're talking. I'm like, you're famous, but 271 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 1: you're you know where I'm doing. You're you're not the 272 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: face of the NFL. And like another year later too, 273 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: he was just the face of the NFL. But I 274 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 1: remember I was wearing a I was wearing an Aaron 275 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: Rodgers jersey, and uh, it was just so funny. It's 276 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 1: like nice jersey. You know, he's just messing with me 277 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 1: and stuff like what do you want me to do? 278 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:34,440 Speaker 1: Let me change, mister. So you so you started comedy? 279 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 1: How Because you and I have talked, I didn't realize 280 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 1: you were like a great basketball player. Well that's because 281 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 1: I wasn't really well you just well you told me 282 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:45,199 Speaker 1: you were. No, I wasn't great, but my friend played 283 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,439 Speaker 1: like Junior Olympic basketball and something that. So I was 284 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: around a lot of the basketball players. But I wasn't 285 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: a great basketball player. So how did you start in comedy? 286 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: Because so when I was growing up in Madison, I 287 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: wanted to be a stand up comedian and I would 288 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,719 Speaker 1: go I had a friend who performed This was at 289 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 1: age sixteen, so junior in high school, who would perform 290 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: at one of the comedy clubs in downtown Madison, and 291 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 1: on Tuesday night said have an open mic night, and 292 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 1: he would get me in there st St. State on 293 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: State Street in Madison. I was, first of all, was terrible. 294 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 1: I think it was a funny business at the time, 295 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: funny business, comedy club. I can't remember anyway, I was terrible, 296 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: terrible now I could see. Yeah, and so that's way 297 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: too dry. Way to go be a broadcast or just 298 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: go do something else. But how did you start? Because 299 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 1: it has to be one of the hardest businesses to 300 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: succeed in. You've been relevant as a comedian four in 301 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: and out twenty years though. Plus that's hard to do. Man. Well, 302 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: a lot of it's because I stick my nose in sports. 303 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: If there wasn't, sports probably be a little bit different 304 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: of a story because it's hard to do sports comedy 305 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 1: because when I don't think of myself as a sports comedian, 306 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 1: but people are like footy is sports comedian, or you're 307 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 1: great sports, and like it just happens to be one 308 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 1: of the things they do. And the reasons because it's 309 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: so funny to do analysts and you take them in 310 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: everyday situations and just do what they do in broadcasting. UM. 311 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 1: So I went to school for broadcast journalism University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee. 312 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 1: I actually went to Parkside for a year, which is 313 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and I was going to play baseball there. 314 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: But I was like, ah, you know, I'm never gonna 315 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: get anywhere playing baseball. It's a vision two and a 316 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: couple of my friends ended up even getting drafted and 317 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: stuff like that. But then I I went, I transferred, 318 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 1: I endered the transfer portal. I went over to uh 319 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee and went to school for broadcast journalism. 320 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 1: So I went and got that degree. And while I 321 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 1: was doing that, I went up I went to a 322 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 1: comedy sports class, which is, you know, improv comedy games. 323 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: And they're like these voices you do, you should do 324 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: stand up and I was like, I'll try it. It 325 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: does that mean I'm not very good at this improv thing? 326 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 1: They're like, well, it's just we could see the toolbox 327 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: that you have that you could use, uh, you know, 328 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: as opposed to baseball player, I was a zero tool player. 329 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 1: Was it comedy sports? Because I tried that as well. 330 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: The comedy sports was the improv yet a group so 331 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: it was very tough, very difficult. Yeah, you have to 332 00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 1: you have to learn how to play the games, and 333 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: it's there's a thing called yeah. And so you take 334 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: what you don't see people in unless they're like super 335 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 1: high level and they know each other. You don't see 336 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: people asking questions in improv. They just take whatever's given 337 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: to them and they say yes, whether it's out loud 338 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 1: or you know, internally, and they agree to it and 339 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 1: then move on. So it moves. It always moves the 340 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: scene forward, and that's one of the things that makes 341 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 1: it work. So I did that a little bit, and 342 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 1: then I went started doing stand up and the stand 343 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: up thing just started to click. I was actually I 344 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: actually injured my back. I missed like months of school 345 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 1: and stuff like that, and then I got away from 346 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 1: stand up. I graduated, and then I got back out 347 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: there and I just started working right away and then 348 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 1: got on the college circuit. And in the meantime, I'd 349 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 1: learned a bunch of different impressions that I worked on 350 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: the maddened thing when I was doing the John Madden thing. 351 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 1: That's what really took off, because nobody was doing stuff 352 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 1: like that. Nobody would have, you know, a sports impression. 353 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: They go to a comedy club, you know, here's a 354 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: guy when he but just contacts and he could see better, 355 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: you know, and then people would be like, oh my god, 356 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: you sound like and I listen to my old John 357 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,400 Speaker 1: Mann and sound like here's a guy. I'm like, it's 358 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: just so bad, and people are like, it sounds exactly like. 359 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 1: But then, you know, you become more like the person 360 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 1: and you try to say the things that they say 361 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 1: and say them the way that they say them, and 362 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:22,199 Speaker 1: then you add you add the then you add the 363 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 1: thing that makes them a character. Yeah, because there are 364 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: people that do dead on impressions better than me. They 365 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 1: are quite a few, Like I've seen here, these people 366 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 1: that are in the industry that are sound alikes. I've 367 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 1: never really wanted to be a sound like. No, it's 368 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 1: it's more of a parody, but it is you sound 369 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 1: enough alike. But it is more Yeah, it's more fun, 370 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,880 Speaker 1: and it's more fun. It becomes a character that you've created, 371 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 1: as opposed to when you do it dead on impression, 372 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 1: all you can do is scenes that somebody has to 373 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: be incredibly well written. I'm not that good of a writer, 374 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 1: so uh, it's I just like to blow them up 375 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 1: and make them sillier and bigger. I think I recall 376 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: the story of Gruden getting upset initially or he wasn't well, 377 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,479 Speaker 1: I don't, yeah, I think people are always What happens 378 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 1: is that people are always worried it's going to hurt 379 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 1: their bottom line. So they're worried that Madison Avenue is 380 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,959 Speaker 1: going to see them and not want to do commercials 381 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 1: with them or something. What happens is the opposite that 382 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: once you find a take for a person, they the advertisers, 383 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 1: start watching what you do and then they write the 384 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:29,360 Speaker 1: commercials for your take on the person. So um, for example, Gruden, 385 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 1: he would text me, you know, three o'clock in the morning, 386 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 1: which I think is lunch for him. What time you 387 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 1: get up one am? Then what time you go to bed? 388 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 1: Five pm? And he would takes me, I just got 389 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 1: done doing a commercial where they had me doing impersonation 390 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 1: you man, and I was too scared to ask him 391 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: what that meant. But I think it was the one 392 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 1: where he's talking to the tire and they probably said, 393 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,400 Speaker 1: be bigger, be more like Caliendo doing the impression of them, 394 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, that's that's it. Becomes a good thing. 395 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 1: Barkley said that too. He's like, they I end up 396 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 1: making more money because people here, people like you doing 397 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 1: this stuff. That's what when they hear it, they know 398 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 1: what to write. It's very very good. So those things, 399 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 1: those work and it works in their favor. But people 400 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: who are in sports, they get weirded out about it 401 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: because a lot of times they're put on pedestals, especially coaches. 402 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,680 Speaker 1: Coaches are put on pedestals and they listen. The guys 403 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 1: lives around the you know, dependent upon the coaches and 404 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 1: trusting that they can, you know, do their job. So 405 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 1: you know, when you're alignment you I mean, it's dangerous. 406 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,199 Speaker 1: So you got to have somebody you can look up 407 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 1: to and stuff like that. You can't have somebody you know. 408 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 1: They make fun, but again it's the brother the brotherhood 409 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:41,639 Speaker 1: and the camaraderie where they can make fun of guys, 410 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: but you'll be careful with that kind of stuff. And 411 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: I think there's a little bit of that in the 412 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,479 Speaker 1: sports stuff. People get weirded out that, hey, you're you know, 413 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 1: don't make fun of you know, don't make fun of me. 414 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 1: I gotta have these guys listen to me. I gotta 415 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: be a leader of men. Is there anybody that ever gets, like, 416 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 1: really upset with you? Has anybody ever said, hey, don't 417 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 1: do that anymore? Have you ever had yourself? Nobody has 418 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: ever talked to me. But sometimes people won't look me 419 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 1: in the eye. It's ridiculous. I don't get it. And 420 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 1: I'm not going to give a name, but you could 421 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:16,920 Speaker 1: probably figure it out. Who graz is that? See? Why 422 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 1: wouldn't Jim Rome? Wait, where'd you get that from? Why 423 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,919 Speaker 1: wouldn't he? Like? I would love it? Like if you 424 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 1: say it's it's the pedestal, it's the pedestal. A lot 425 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 1: of you know, clones. He believes that, you know, people 426 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: are looking up to him. I think I've never I've 427 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 1: never talked to him. I think he's great. I've never 428 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 1: talked to him. No, I was looking the other way. Now, 429 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:40,400 Speaker 1: you know it's I've never I wanted to because I 430 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 1: listen when I was driving around doing colleges when I 431 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 1: first started that. You just listen for things on the 432 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: radio that this is in the early two thousands, late 433 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 1: nineteen nineties, early two thousands. You just listen to it 434 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 1: for shows that at the time, we're on every stage 435 00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:58,680 Speaker 1: wherever you went. That could be in the middle of 436 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 1: Virginia and Rome would be on, or I'd be driving 437 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: in North Carolina or Texas, Jim Rome would be on somewhere. 438 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,479 Speaker 1: So you look listen for a familiar voice when you're 439 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,159 Speaker 1: out there on the road all by yourself. Um, but no, 440 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 1: I mean I don't know people that Madden hated me 441 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,159 Speaker 1: until I met him. So I have the same agent 442 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 1: that John Mann has, Sandy Montec, who used to charkh 443 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: and he used to travel with Madden. He was like 444 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,360 Speaker 1: on the Madden bus for all those years and went 445 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 1: from being like a stats guy basically to like one 446 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: of the top agents in the business. And I was 447 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 1: asking I told him that I was going to have 448 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: you on. And so I know Frank from probably those 449 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,919 Speaker 1: initial well the meetings with John. Yeah, the way that 450 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 1: I only met John Madden once, I only met him once. 451 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 1: And I tell the story my actor that he was 452 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 1: he was. It was at the Super Bowl in Dallas, Texas, 453 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 1: the Four Seasons Hotel, and Um, I was working to 454 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: Fox at the time, and he was standing in the 455 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 1: lobby and Jimmy Johnson standing next to him, and I'm like, 456 00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:58,400 Speaker 1: and he was talking that Madden was talking to kids, 457 00:21:58,440 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 1: so I didn't want to bother him. I'm like, this 458 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:01,679 Speaker 1: is probably his family, it's grandkids. I don't want my 459 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: mother and I'm I say to Jimmy, I'm like, can 460 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 1: you believe him? This closet? To John Manzi, what you 461 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 1: have met him? And he taps Madden on the shoulder 462 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:08,919 Speaker 1: and he's like, what is it in the look on 463 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 1: his face? Saw him? He was like when Shaggy and 464 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 1: Scooby see the bad guy pop into the barrel like 465 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,440 Speaker 1: Zinks like, hey, school, let's get out of here. Row. 466 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 1: But I made his grandkids laugh and it was like 467 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:21,880 Speaker 1: a light bulb went on over his hands, like I 468 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: get it now, you know. And I was like, hey, 469 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 1: can I have my father in law was there and 470 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 1: my kids and can they get pictures? And he saw 471 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 1: that I didn't dislike him. I grew up listening to John. 472 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 1: There's been nobody ever better at that than him. And 473 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,880 Speaker 1: what people don't understand when they listen to a broadcast 474 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:44,639 Speaker 1: is how hard it is. And I don't want to 475 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 1: take anything away from you as a play by play guy, 476 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:51,199 Speaker 1: but the color analyst is it's very difficult because you 477 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,359 Speaker 1: have to have you have to. You have to have 478 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 1: a very short memory. It's almost like a quarterback. You 479 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: can't use last week's game and stories that you used 480 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 1: in last week's game, as you can tell that same thing. 481 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 1: You might have to say the same stuff. You may 482 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 1: have to talk about the same types of things you've 483 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: talked about a thousand times because it's a different audience 484 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 1: that's coming in. And if you don't hit those moments, 485 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,439 Speaker 1: you look like you don't know what you're talking about 486 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 1: and you look like you're not hitting on a point 487 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 1: of the game. Right. Um, I saw somebody putting out 488 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,679 Speaker 1: you know, memes of things that are always said, uh, 489 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:29,120 Speaker 1: you know, um, you know stories that you always hear 490 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 1: about the players or God, I can't. That's one of 491 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 1: my problems is I have zero recall ability for names. 492 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: You would think with an impression, you know, when you 493 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,639 Speaker 1: do a bunch of places, you remember the names of people. 494 00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 1: I have none of it. No, I oh no, no, no, 495 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 1: my brain you think Walton's bad. I'm just going, what's 496 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: his name with the beard? Looks like Connor McGregor, m 497 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:55,880 Speaker 1: a quarterback? Harvard, Oh, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Fitzpatrick Fitzpatrick. It's that's 498 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 1: the story. It's always Ryan Fitzpatrick went to Harvard. He's 499 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 1: a hard he's smart, he went. You know, you hear 500 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:04,160 Speaker 1: that every game, and there's a reason because they some 501 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 1: of us are watching all the games. But that's not 502 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 1: who the main fan is, right, The main fan is 503 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 1: watching their team. They watch a game a week. So 504 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 1: you have to hit on some of these things when 505 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:17,360 Speaker 1: that's the opposing player. I get people all the time 506 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 1: on Twitter firery back of me, like, man, are we 507 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 1: gonna hear again about this? I'm like, well, you know 508 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 1: you've got a right because I think usually they measure 509 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 1: things based on like ten to twelve minute segments. You 510 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 1: have a new audience basically every every ten to twelve minutes, 511 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:32,399 Speaker 1: so you have to repeat your stories. You did a 512 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 1: game with Bill and I are a portion of a 513 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,159 Speaker 1: game with Bill Walton. I'm going to stay there in 514 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 1: the whole game. And Bill wanted me too. I wish 515 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: you would have too. It was great. I didn't want 516 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,120 Speaker 1: me out of there because we had to talk about basketball. 517 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: You guys never talk about basketball. I don't know. I mean, 518 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:46,640 Speaker 1: it was like I think maybe a ten minute sad. 519 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 1: It was a big game, as like Oregon it went viral. 520 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 1: I'm went miniviral. I know, so you've experienced that being 521 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: in that chair. Even though you were in there to 522 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 1: impersonate Bill, you were also analyzing, well, yeah, a little 523 00:24:57,760 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 1: probably actually did the game, talked about the game more 524 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: than Yeah he was remember what you said. He's like, 525 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 1: this is the most Bills ever talked about the game, 526 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: because he was actually trying to bring it back to 527 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,679 Speaker 1: more about the game. Because I was going off on 528 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,719 Speaker 1: crazy tangent. I'd actually done like a little bit of 529 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 1: tried to do a little bit of color analysis or 530 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 1: a yeah, um in games years and years ago. I 531 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 1: remember it was a Cub's Cardinals game that I tried 532 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 1: to do something. I was like, I don't know, when 533 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: did you hear that? That's coming out of my stomach? Yeah? 534 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 1: That was okay. That was like a like like uh, 535 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,639 Speaker 1: I don't want to say gas bubble. That was like 536 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 1: a gurgle that came from my sternum. Is that POSSI 537 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if that was an impersonation or just 538 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 1: here wolf is in there based and onions. That sounded 539 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 1: frog like. So that that that that is what happens 540 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 1: to your health when you keep doing Ron Wolfle, I 541 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: guess that was something, but that was that was like, 542 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: that was guttural. If I remember, there's like a gas 543 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,159 Speaker 1: bubble in the middle of it. Might be having a 544 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,120 Speaker 1: heart attack right now like the super fans like dear 545 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 1: sweet happened? What's happening? All right? There's still more I 546 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:03,680 Speaker 1: want to get to about this, but we haven't talked 547 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 1: about anything yet. We haven't. This has been like twenty 548 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:10,639 Speaker 1: two minutes. So Jim M A hundred, our producer, came 549 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,439 Speaker 1: up with this idea where we take some of the 550 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 1: calls from the game this past Sunday, the win over 551 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 1: the rams where I'm talking and then wolf talk. So 552 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 1: it's a play by play call and an analysis. Since 553 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 1: you were just talking about what it's like to broadcast 554 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 1: a game, and we want you to do it with 555 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 1: different impressions. We'll start with one name and I'm just 556 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 1: gonna throw out another name, okay, and you transition as 557 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 1: we go. So the first one you got the copy there, yeah, okay, 558 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 1: first one is a Byron Murphy interception. Okay, So why 559 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: don't we start that as Let's start it as Robert 560 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 1: Downey Junior. Okay, So second in three nine minutes ago 561 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: in the first when you're doing rumber Danny Junior. By 562 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:50,679 Speaker 1: the way, you've got to sound like you're burping halfway 563 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 1: through every sentence. Maybe that gurgle will come back. It's 564 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:57,639 Speaker 1: a fake handoff rolling right. Is Stafford looking back to 565 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 1: the left, throwing a deep ball farside for the show 566 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:04,680 Speaker 1: on Jackson, and it's picked off inside the fifteen yard line. Alpacino, 567 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:10,120 Speaker 1: it's Byron Murphy. He's tackled around the twelve. Byron Murphy, 568 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 1: the NFC defensive player of the week. We had two 569 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: picks last week, gets one here on Stafford in the 570 00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:19,359 Speaker 1: first quarter. Okay, so now this is Wolf talking to 571 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: do it first as Wolf. Oh, Byron Murphy bated Matthew 572 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:27,760 Speaker 1: Stafford to throw that ball and then broke on the ball. One. 573 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 1: An unbelievable play from Byron Murphy, and slowly it's starting 574 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:35,399 Speaker 1: to turn into Jesse the body Ventura bated Matthew Stafford 575 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,200 Speaker 1: to throw it, all right, and the bay Sinonian are 576 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 1: you bugging me? All right? And then I have one 577 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 1: line after that. Let's do that line as shock man. 578 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: Murphy's playing like a pro bowler. The first month of 579 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: the season. It's pretty good. Okay, that's that's so good. 580 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:52,679 Speaker 1: All right, we need to come up with we need 581 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:54,159 Speaker 1: to find like ten more of these. All right. So 582 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: here is aj Green forty one yard touchdown catch against 583 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,359 Speaker 1: the Rams. Let's start that off as Bruce Arians Actually, 584 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 1: I'm talking about dead at Murray and shot guns snapped 585 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 1: the Kyler at a tiny little short set. See I 586 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 1: did that. That's a nice little call, that short set 587 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: by the little man right there. They doing a great 588 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 1: word played by Dave Pass who knew he had it 589 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 1: in him back there in Madison, Wisconsin. Moving it right 590 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 1: a little bit little bit. You see what he does there, 591 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,879 Speaker 1: short set, little bit now throwing deep fireside and is 592 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 1: pulled in into five yard All right, hold on, I 593 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:26,439 Speaker 1: gotta grab myself a crown royal. Here. I have a 594 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 1: little sipping dippy, little sipping dippy and dada oops, dude, 595 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: Dipper Ruins finished the call as Jack Nicholson by his 596 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 1: five yard line by a J. Green into the end 597 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 1: zone for the touchdown. J Green just too strong, too big, 598 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: too athletic. Okay, now is Wolf to Tracy Morgan. What 599 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 1: a great read by Kyler Murray to throw the ball. 600 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 1: You got a scarecrow woman stick? Hold on, say that again, 601 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 1: but say it is Morgan Freeman. What a great read 602 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 1: by Kyler Murray. To throw the ball. You've got a 603 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: scarecrow on a stick. Put it out there, let him 604 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 1: go get it. That's exactly what A J. Green did. Okay? 605 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: What does scarecrow on a stick mean? What does that mean? So? Okay, 606 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 1: so that's gonna be like the scarecrow Wolf said, Wolf 607 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 1: said scarecrow? All right, But that's what I'm trying to 608 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 1: figure out is what where his mind is? Is he 609 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 1: in the middle of the poppies and the Wizard of Oz? 610 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 1: What's happening? What is going on your basinonians? What is happening? 611 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 1: Just don't throw water on him? All right? So can 612 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 1: you say you've got a scarecrow on a stick one 613 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:37,719 Speaker 1: more time? In reference to A. J. Green? But can 614 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 1: you do it as Liam Neeson? Let let's get there 615 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 1: on a great read by Kyler Murray. To throw the ball. 616 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 1: You've got a scarecrow on a stick, Put it out there, 617 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: let him go get it. That's exactly what A J. 618 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 1: Green did. My head, yeah, those are those all kind 619 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 1: of work, all right. How about let's do a little 620 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 1: play by play as u some analysts. So let's do 621 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 1: me on the Max Williams fourteen yard touchdown catch. Let's 622 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 1: start doing that as mel Kiper talk about tremendous snap snapped, 623 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray, tiny little athletic ability, high risk in high reward. 624 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 1: Do things you don't see in each other. Free step drop. 625 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 1: I'm adding things because I get back to the copyright here. 626 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: Free step dropped, the tiny little steps, tiny little Kyler 627 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 1: Murray taking a little steps the place over hold on. 628 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 1: We're doing this a slow motion. Actually, this what's going 629 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: on inside of my head. Free step drop loops it 630 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 1: deep through the middle of the end his own Max 631 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 1: Williams double accident and the ex single s in the 632 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 1: Williams hangs it. He's a hit touchdown Williams over the middle, 633 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: got popped. But Kyler Murray with a beautiful touchdown throwing. 634 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 1: At the end of the day, the Cardinals are back 635 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:58,719 Speaker 1: in front. Okay, let's do uh. Wolfe's response as John Madden, 636 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, what are you gonna do when 637 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 1: when Max Williams runs the seam on you want a 638 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 1: great read by Kyler Murray. I mean, that's Kyler Murray 639 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 1: just being Kyler Murray. Right there, he saw what do 640 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 1: you need to do?

I also saw him 697 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 1: at I think I'm pretty sure he was at UM. 698 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:14,279 Speaker 1: Jim Gray had a birthday party in Vegas and it 699 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 1: was the most famous group of sports people I'd ever 700 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:20,279 Speaker 1: seen in one room at the same time. Did you 701 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:22,440 Speaker 1: see who Jim Gray had? The two people he had 702 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 1: with him at his Hall of Fame induction ceremony, Larry 703 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:29,719 Speaker 1: Fitzgerald yeah, and Mike Tyson. Yeah. That's like two ends 704 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 1: of the spectrum of this personnel. But those are that 705 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,880 Speaker 1: Jim has the greatest rolodex. And this was even better 706 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:41,719 Speaker 1: because in the audience was Larry King, doctor Jay Muhammad, 707 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 1: ali U, Bill Walton, and there were a couple I mean, 708 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 1: but it was so and Jordan was supposed to be there, 709 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:52,080 Speaker 1: but I don't think they could get him away from 710 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:56,440 Speaker 1: the tables. I mean it was I'm not even joking, Okay, No, 711 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:58,759 Speaker 1: they were like they were a crazy I mean, it 712 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 1: was unbelievable the people that were there. So somebody, I'm 713 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:04,880 Speaker 1: not gonna say the name because I don't know that 714 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 1: I should, but somebody wrote a book. And there's actually 715 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 1: two books now called the Bill Walton Mysteries, and they 716 00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 1: are it is a so apparently Bill and I after 717 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,759 Speaker 1: we call games, we solve crimes. There's one set in 718 00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,839 Speaker 1: I think Seattle and the other ones in Maui. And 719 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,359 Speaker 1: so this first one here is called hold On Bill 720 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:26,000 Speaker 1: Walton Mysteries, Friend of the Devil. If you may have 721 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,520 Speaker 1: to read a page or two in some different voices. 722 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:33,640 Speaker 1: Does he have are there parts where he's actually speaking 723 00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 1: or well, oh yeah, and there's there's he has Bill 724 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 1: like in the book the character drinking beer, but Bill 725 00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 1: only drinks water. I'm serious, like Bill water and hot 726 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 1: water and more water and bring water. I'm in pharmaceuticals Bill, 727 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 1: That's what I said. I say, but it's weird. It's 728 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:52,319 Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure out. I'm totally springing this on 729 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 1: your left. Yeah. I was just trying to think if 730 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,719 Speaker 1: there was a spot where, you know, if you read it. 731 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 1: I tried to shake hands with Fiddle, but he didn't notice. 732 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,880 Speaker 1: It was clear something was wrong. He said he couldn't 733 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,839 Speaker 1: talk with the other people around, so we brought him 734 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,279 Speaker 1: to our dressing room. I'm not sure if that's Bill 735 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 1: even talking at this point. It doesn't matter anyway. I 736 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 1: didn't know if you yeah, yeah, I mean, I mean 737 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:16,160 Speaker 1: we could read as Robert Dane Junior do the same 738 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 1: type of thing before. It's you know you do that. 739 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,439 Speaker 1: We do all the avengers, I mean pharmaceuticals Bill. That's 740 00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 1: what I said, Tony, I'm doing the all Avengers. I'll 741 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,759 Speaker 1: try to shake hands with Field book. He uh, you 742 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,240 Speaker 1: didn't notice. Thanks thor what are we doing now, Tracy? 743 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,759 Speaker 1: That's what I'm going to clear something was wrong. He 744 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 1: said he couldn't talk with the other people, so we 745 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 1: went and brought him to our dressing room. Roch stephen A, 746 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:40,200 Speaker 1: that's a classic like thing that old school impressions would do, 747 00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 1: introduced the next guy. Stephen A thought the knoleum floor, 748 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 1: the fluorescent ceiling, likes, what made made inards inards with 749 00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 1: with a with a with a hyphen. Why would we 750 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 1: do that? At that point in the book of the 751 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:59,280 Speaker 1: Arena feels surprisingly school like. Talk about it. We walked 752 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:05,280 Speaker 1: past frame pictures documenting key Arena's pass, Glori's pictures, Sean Kemp, 753 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:10,440 Speaker 1: Garrett Peyton, and other members of the legendary Nanda's SuperSonics, 754 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:16,359 Speaker 1: various musical luminaries that performed here um luckily for me 755 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 1: or lucky for me. They were labeled Prince Bruce Springsteen, Nirvana, McLemore, 756 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:25,759 Speaker 1: and Pearl jam Very good, very good, try my best right. 757 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:28,120 Speaker 1: I just figured when this is so great, because I 758 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:32,479 Speaker 1: imagine just you be shaggy and you ask, Hey, Bill, 759 00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 1: would you do it for one scooby snack? So you go, Hey, Bill, 760 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 1: Would you do it for one Scooby snacks? Is Bill? 761 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:43,200 Speaker 1: Would you do it for one Scoobies? No way, Bill? 762 00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:45,520 Speaker 1: Would you do it for two Scooby second? Not a chance? 763 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:48,120 Speaker 1: Like would you do it for three Scooby snacks and 764 00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:51,440 Speaker 1: a tripled Egger salami sandwich? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah 765 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:56,600 Speaker 1: yeah and a glass of water to bring it all down? 766 00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 1: All he ever has this water? Now he might be 767 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 1: doing something else outside, but at least at dinner. So 768 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:05,839 Speaker 1: before we get out here, give me your thoughts on 769 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:12,320 Speaker 1: four oh for the Cardinals. Yeah, listen, I'm I'm I'm enthusiastic, 770 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,239 Speaker 1: but I don't want to get too enthusiastic because I 771 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 1: always feel like I'm the one in the universe that 772 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:18,360 Speaker 1: if I get too on board and too gung ho 773 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:21,239 Speaker 1: for somebody, that I'm going to tilt the scale and 774 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 1: make it go backwards. So I think I think it's great. 775 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 1: It's you wouldn't. Why would you want to be anything 776 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:30,279 Speaker 1: but four No? Especially in the division they're in to 777 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 1: beat the Rams is huge. The thing I worry about 778 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:37,839 Speaker 1: is Kyler needs his legs and his arm right if 779 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 1: one of those things goes down, like if you if 780 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 1: Tom Brady has a sore leg, you don't really worry 781 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 1: about it because he doesn't move that much anyways. It's 782 00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: like you can do that. Kyler needs that whole package, 783 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 1: and as small as he is, you're worry about him getting, 784 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 1: you know, smashed. Now he seems to be eluding people 785 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 1: incredibly well. And the baseball players like he and Russell 786 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 1: will have that ability to slide and anticipate when they 787 00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,600 Speaker 1: need to slide. You look at somebody like Lamar Jackson, 788 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 1: he looks more like a basketball point guard out there 789 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:10,879 Speaker 1: with some of the moves he does, and he takes 790 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:14,799 Speaker 1: some hits, he gets smashed. Kyler's trying not to get hit, 791 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 1: and I think Lamar's trying to do that same thing. 792 00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:19,919 Speaker 1: But for some reason, the baseball players have a little 793 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,239 Speaker 1: bit more of that ability to get down. If you 794 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:26,239 Speaker 1: look at a guy um Herbert, like the just the 795 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:29,440 Speaker 1: sheer size and bone structure of a guy like Justin 796 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 1: Herbert or Matthew Stafford, you know, I've met somebody. I've 797 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 1: never met Herbert, but Stafford. I did a thing at 798 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 1: the super Bowl in uh Indianapolis years ago. And Matthew Stafford, 799 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:41,320 Speaker 1: he was only like his third year in the leaguers. 800 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:44,280 Speaker 1: But he's a monster. Here I shook hand. I remember 801 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:48,439 Speaker 1: shaking hands with Boomer Asiason and his hands look were 802 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 1: like the hands of alignment. These are not normal sized 803 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:57,160 Speaker 1: human Aiman's massive, Like if people didn't know that he 804 00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 1: was a quarterback. You because of the things about Troy 805 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 1: is he's a block all the way down. I mean, 806 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 1: he's a dapper human being. He looks like a model, 807 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:10,799 Speaker 1: but he's he's just a thick human being. He's like 808 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,319 Speaker 1: a i'd say tree trunk, but that's gonna make you 809 00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:16,360 Speaker 1: think of a somebody shorter. But he's he's like a 810 00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,440 Speaker 1: full on tree. He's like the tree and the you know, 811 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,279 Speaker 1: the hair is the branches, I guess, but it's you know, 812 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,480 Speaker 1: you see some of these people and they you can 813 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 1: understand why they can take the hits. Russell Wilson is 814 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 1: not a small you know, you compare a guy like 815 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 1: Kyler and Russell Wilson. Russell Wilson's a thick human being, 816 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,920 Speaker 1: bigger shoulders, bigger hands. He almost looks like a weightlift. 817 00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 1: Although if you look at kyler lower body pretty yeah. Yeah, 818 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:42,520 Speaker 1: he's not a weak guy by any means. But I 819 00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:45,320 Speaker 1: I think this year, um listen, I'm root I'm rooting 820 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 1: for them because I like being friends with a GM 821 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 1: first of all, and Steve keep the job for a 822 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 1: long time. Um, I think that defensively, you know, they 823 00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:58,080 Speaker 1: get after it this year. They feel more like a 824 00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:01,160 Speaker 1: team I feel like, and I think that's JJ Watt. 825 00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 1: I think that's uh from I only I don't hear much. 826 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:07,000 Speaker 1: You know, I don't ask a lot of questions of 827 00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:08,839 Speaker 1: Steve and stuff like that, and I don't think he'd 828 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,719 Speaker 1: give me a lot of answers to information I bond anyways. Um, 829 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,839 Speaker 1: but the feeling I get that is that JJ that's 830 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:17,320 Speaker 1: a big part. And I've even heard you guys on 831 00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:19,360 Speaker 1: the broadcast say that JJ Watts brought in to be 832 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 1: a team guy. And I think that's you know, that 833 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 1: guy's just an animal and when people that's infectious. When 834 00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 1: you've got guys on your team that like that, that 835 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:31,160 Speaker 1: never stopped, the motor never stops. Uh. You know, what 836 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:34,360 Speaker 1: do they say in the NFL? You know, there's all sports. 837 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:36,480 Speaker 1: There are people that play the game because they have 838 00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 1: to play the game and it gives them a good check. 839 00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,359 Speaker 1: And there are people that play the game you have 840 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 1: to when it's something when they draft somebody. That's why 841 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 1: they say, you have to love the game. It's a 842 00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:47,319 Speaker 1: hard game. It's a very difficult game because the next 843 00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:49,560 Speaker 1: day you have to wake up and deal with just 844 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 1: how we long you should say. You go into a 845 00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 1: closet and it's like somebody can beat you with a 846 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 1: baseball bat for two hours, and then you got to 847 00:41:57,080 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 1: come out of the closet and h and deal with that. 848 00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:02,600 Speaker 1: And that's when they wanted to add the game. He's like, 849 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:04,680 Speaker 1: that's why players didn't want to add. You got to 850 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:06,879 Speaker 1: do a seventeenth game. I remember how he talking about 851 00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:09,400 Speaker 1: that five or six years ago, and that was that 852 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 1: was his analogy about him. I even been ten years 853 00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:13,799 Speaker 1: ago at this point, but that was his analogy because 854 00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:15,440 Speaker 1: I was saying, why is one game so much bigger? 855 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 1: He goes, you don't understand the stuff that people go 856 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:19,799 Speaker 1: through in these games just to get back to play 857 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:22,320 Speaker 1: the next week, right, And that's why the fact that 858 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:25,120 Speaker 1: Cardinals are four and oh it's great right now, they're 859 00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:27,840 Speaker 1: the only unbeaten team in the NFL. But we've got 860 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,479 Speaker 1: to waste and there's gonna be adverse and there's gonna 861 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 1: be losses and injuries play. Yeah, you know DeAndre Hopkins. 862 00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:38,160 Speaker 1: Some of the stuff that that man does, the pivoting 863 00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:41,319 Speaker 1: that he does, what he will make a catch, make 864 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:44,919 Speaker 1: a step, pivot, do a reverse pivot that I don't 865 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:47,720 Speaker 1: see many people like. He's got moves that that aren't 866 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:49,839 Speaker 1: like anything anybody else does. He's one of the best 867 00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:51,960 Speaker 1: route runners in history at the league. Right There's just 868 00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:54,360 Speaker 1: things he yet and not just for yet the route 869 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 1: and after the after the catch, the weird things that 870 00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:01,279 Speaker 1: he will do that you a man. You know, when 871 00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 1: you watch somebody make a cut, they're usually making a 872 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:08,280 Speaker 1: cut while going forward. He will actually stop and pivot 873 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:10,879 Speaker 1: and turn around and you're going, I don't think I've 874 00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:15,879 Speaker 1: seen anybody do that. I mean aj Green J Green 875 00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:18,120 Speaker 1: has been a huge addition to the team this year. 876 00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:22,279 Speaker 1: Christian Kirk making big catches, and then Rondel Moore. I 877 00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 1: mean it's like Kyler Murray throwing almost to Kyler Murray somepint. 878 00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:29,359 Speaker 1: That's that's fun. I mean, they're just fun to watch offensively. 879 00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 1: I don't know what what people are gonna do to 880 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:38,160 Speaker 1: figure out how to stop them, because there it's it's listen. 881 00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:41,360 Speaker 1: I don't want to compare them directly to the Chiefs 882 00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:46,000 Speaker 1: because you know, Mahomes was at and Mahomes a struggling 883 00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:47,799 Speaker 1: right now even but you know when he had all 884 00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,920 Speaker 1: his weapons, especially two years ago. Who do you stop? 885 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 1: Can you do? Patrick Mahomes? Yeah, man, I think that's 886 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,600 Speaker 1: that's a pretty good one. And it comes from people 887 00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 1: say Kermit the Frog. It's more Fozzy Bear's in there. 888 00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:02,640 Speaker 1: But hey man, I think that's pretty good. To your point, though, 889 00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:05,160 Speaker 1: there are some things that Kyler can do that Patrick 890 00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:09,239 Speaker 1: Mahomes can't, and there have been there are flaws on 891 00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:13,440 Speaker 1: that Chief's team yet two consecutive Super Bowl appearances. What 892 00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:16,279 Speaker 1: I'm saying is the Cardinals certainly have flaws. There are 893 00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 1: things they need to clean up. But if Kyler Murray 894 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 1: keeps playing like this, the ascension that he is on 895 00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:23,960 Speaker 1: right now, if he continues to play like this, I 896 00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:27,239 Speaker 1: worry about a young guy getting too big of a head. 897 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 1: Because he's so good it's hard to you start to 898 00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:34,040 Speaker 1: feel like you're invincible. I worry about that. My only 899 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,160 Speaker 1: thought on that was my point on the ascension is 900 00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 1: if he keeps going like this, I think the sky's 901 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:41,879 Speaker 1: the limit you can cover up any I mean, yeah, 902 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:46,439 Speaker 1: he's what he can do because I name another guy 903 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:49,680 Speaker 1: and maybe Russell Wilson, although Russell Wilson is not as 904 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 1: he's not quite as quick, but he's quick. I remember, 905 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:56,399 Speaker 1: you know, watching them just give the Seahawks, just give 906 00:44:56,480 --> 00:45:00,040 Speaker 1: fits to the Cardinals with you know, you just you 907 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:02,279 Speaker 1: think Russell Wilson's about to be tackled. He runs three 908 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:04,760 Speaker 1: different directions and then his eyes are up the field. 909 00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:07,480 Speaker 1: That's the thing about Kyler, tiny little kind of Marie. 910 00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 1: That's the thing about Kyler is his eyes stay up 911 00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:12,759 Speaker 1: the field. He's not looking to run. He can, he 912 00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 1: can navigate. It's like he's playing a video game. I 913 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:16,920 Speaker 1: know they say that, you know, video game play, but 914 00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:18,920 Speaker 1: it's like he's looking at the screen in front of 915 00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:21,480 Speaker 1: him and he's just he's playing it and while he's 916 00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:23,640 Speaker 1: watching everything in front of him, and he will make 917 00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:26,920 Speaker 1: the moves and he's watching things develop. You can't cover. 918 00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:33,720 Speaker 1: You cannot cover DeAndre Hopkins, h Aj Greene, Rondelle Moore 919 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:38,839 Speaker 1: and Christian Kirk for a long scene. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 920 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:41,080 Speaker 1: they're hitting tight end. That's why I said to you, hey, 921 00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 1: end of the season, bring Fits back and have him 922 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:44,400 Speaker 1: run some tight end rounds and you laughed at me. 923 00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:47,120 Speaker 1: I'm like, listen, why not why would you not bring 924 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:48,839 Speaker 1: fits back near the end of the season. I didn't 925 00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:50,319 Speaker 1: say it wouldn't bring him back. I'm not sure he 926 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:52,480 Speaker 1: wants to come back. Well he listen, if if it's 927 00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:55,399 Speaker 1: a chance to get a Super Bowl, you know, I mean, 928 00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:58,760 Speaker 1: i'd look at that. I don't know why you wouldn't. 929 00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 1: I mean, if you maybe you can convince him. I'll talk. Yeah, 930 00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:04,279 Speaker 1: I just think I brought jj wan here. But I 931 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:06,319 Speaker 1: mean you look at I mean, who how are you 932 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:08,680 Speaker 1: going to keep those guys covered? That's the thing about Kyler, 933 00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:12,200 Speaker 1: And I say, you know, he moves around so much, 934 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 1: he finds the open guys. Who else can do that 935 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:18,800 Speaker 1: at that level? I don't know. I don't think Lamar 936 00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 1: Jackson can can do that. I think Lamar Jackson his 937 00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:23,799 Speaker 1: head goes down and sometimes he keeps it up and 938 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:26,319 Speaker 1: he makes a good, a decent throw. Kyler is looking 939 00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:28,720 Speaker 1: for the throw the whole time. His legs are spinning 940 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 1: like the roadrunner. Man. That was a little grutin there. 941 00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:33,200 Speaker 1: See you know, tell you what, man, they just have 942 00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:35,359 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, I'll bet there are some times 943 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:38,000 Speaker 1: where you don't even realize it where you, as Frank 944 00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:40,560 Speaker 1: Caliando becomes one of your characters. Well everything, it's not 945 00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:43,360 Speaker 1: it's it's I think it's I think it's actually the 946 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:45,880 Speaker 1: reverse that there's a piece of me and every character 947 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:49,720 Speaker 1: that I do, and uh, they kind of do meld. 948 00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:52,120 Speaker 1: But it's it's a thing where people will hear I'll 949 00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 1: be like, you sound like Jack Nicholson. I'm just that's 950 00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:57,320 Speaker 1: because I'm just talking at this that was actually Belichick. 951 00:46:57,400 --> 00:46:59,920 Speaker 1: Is if I'm a little quieter like this, it's Bill Belichick. 952 00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:01,799 Speaker 1: And then if you're just doing a little this, it's Jack. 953 00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:04,279 Speaker 1: And if you force it that a little bit more 954 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:07,719 Speaker 1: becomes John gruten Man. Again the facial and this is 955 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:12,080 Speaker 1: an audio podcast, but the facial expressions are spider too. 956 00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:17,000 Speaker 1: Why banana cream pie man?
