Speaker 2: in forty three years, you guys, the Dodgers and Yankees

90
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,480

91
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 2: World Series is a gift. They gave us everything we

92
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 2: asked for last night, the first ever walk off Grand

93
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 2: Slam in World Series history, from the legendary Freddy Freeman.

94
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 2: I mean the whole situation walking Mookie Betts to get

95
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 2: to Freddy Freeman, the moment hitting the grand slam on

96
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 2: the first pitch with two outs and bases loaded, the

97
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 2: bat flip, holding it, slow motion, dropping it, running straight

98
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,039
Speaker 2: to celebrate with his dad, and the history of that win.

99
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:35,600
Speaker 1: It was poetic.

100
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,359
Speaker 5: It was a movie. You didn't even mention how it

101
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 5: was an extra innings.

102
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: Oh, we'll get there.

103
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,480
Speaker 4: It was an extra Oh, it wasn't just a walk

104
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 4: off grand Slam in the ninth inning.

105
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 1: It was Oh yeah, it was. Oh it was magical.

106
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,679
Speaker 2: And in case you missed that iconic moment, let's relive

107
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 2: it right now.

108
00:04:54,640 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 3: Four times given game, so.

109
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 2: I like still get chills and I've listened to that

110
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,800
Speaker 2: call over one hundred times. I mean, the fact that

111
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 2: Joe Davis was so on top of it with give meat, Freddy.

112
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 2: It's insane how many crazy similarities there are from Kirk

113
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 2: Gibson's home run in nineteen eighty eight, when the Dodgers

114
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 2: won the World Series that year to Freddy Freeman's Both

115
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 2: were Game one of the World Series, both battling through injuries,

116
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 2: both were hit to that right field stand area. Both

117
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 2: games were with two outs, and both home runs were

118
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 2: hit at exactly eight thirty seven PM. Chills. Again, I

119
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 2: am covered in chills. This is a moment you dream

120
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 2: about as a kid. Bases loaded, two outs, You're at

121
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 2: the plate with a chance to win the game, and

122
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 2: to have it be a World Series game like it

123
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 2: does not get more iconic Hollywood movie script than that moment.

124
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,279
Speaker 4: The part that had me because like, I don't have

125
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 4: a dog in this fight. I worked for the Dodgers

126
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 4: back in the day, but I don't.

127
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 1: Have You're not gonna jump on the Dodgers. You live

128
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 1: in LA. You worked for the Dodgers, But.

129
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 4: Like the Dodgers, I know, like it was the COVID thing,

130
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 4: but they've had more recent success. I like, I've loved

131
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,039
Speaker 4: the Yankees too growing up, so I think they are

132
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 4: a really cool historical franchise. I don't have a dog

133
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 4: inside but the park. Let me let me tell you

134
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,839
Speaker 4: the part that made me cry last night. Okay, we're

135
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 4: all crying Joe Davis's call. Not only was it the

136
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 4: Mookie meat or I mean Freddie Meat Gibby. Yeah, he

137
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 4: said right field, she is gone. And that was an

138
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 4: oh to Vince Scully's call of Kirk's home run back

139
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:54,600
Speaker 4: in eighty eight. And like again, this is like to

140
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:56,919
Speaker 4: have the wherewithal. I mean, I know that Joe Davis

141
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,360
Speaker 4: has been the voice of the Dodgers for.

142
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 1: A while, and that he sat behind and like worked

143
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 1: with him.

144
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 4: To have the wherewithal to know that that that ball

145
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,840
Speaker 4: went yard in right field, and then to say it

146
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 4: in the same cadence using the same words as someone

147
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 4: who is just so beloved and we missed dearly. I

148
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 4: mean I when I worked with the Dodgers, I got

149
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 4: the chance to work with Ben Oh yeah, And I

150
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,119
Speaker 4: got to sit in his booth so many times, listening

151
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 4: to his stories over and I called him my work grandpa,

152
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 4: like it was and like the further removed I get

153
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 4: from it the crazier, I realized that is like, yeah,

154
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 4: to have like an icon, to be so close to

155
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 4: an icon, and to have him so willing to share

156
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 4: so many stories with.

157
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 2: Me, And he remembered everyone's name. I told him my

158
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 2: name once everyone I hadn't. I hadn't even met him

159
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 2: face to face first. And when the Dodgers came to

160
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 2: play the Angels, I walked into introduce myself. He goes,

161
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 2: Alex Curry, great to meet you. I love your work.

162
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 2: I was like, wheat what.

163
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 5: He knew my name? I could cry.

164
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 4: I was like, I was a very lowly intern. I

165
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 4: was one of like, yeah, three, no, he takes the time,

166
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 4: didn't in that department even, and he just at any time,

167
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 4: anytime I dropped off his stats legendary invite me in.

168
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 5: And to hear that.

169
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 4: Smiling down Joe Davis's voice, Yeah, was incredible.

170
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 1: It was magical.

171
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 2: I mean again, like everything about that moment was crazy.

172
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 2: Freddy Freeman even talked about it in the presser after

173
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 2: about it like this is what dreams are made of.

174
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 3: Hey, Freddie, what did it feel like rounding the bases there?

175
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 7: It felt like nothing, you know, I just kind of floating.

176
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 7: Those are the kind of things when you're five years

177
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,439
Speaker 7: old with your two older brothers and you're playing football

178
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 7: in the backyard, and those are the scenarios of the

179
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 7: scenarios you kind of dream about. And base sloaded to

180
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 7: outs in a World Series game, and for it to

181
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 7: actually happen and hit a home run and walk it

182
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 7: off to give us one nothing lead's that's as.

183
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 3: Good as it gets right there.

184
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 2: I mean, that was the best World Series game I

185
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,959
Speaker 2: have ever seen. It was a back and forth battle

186
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,079
Speaker 2: the whole time. We got free baseball with extra innings,

187
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,559
Speaker 2: and the Yankees scored first in the ten you guys.

188
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 2: Then the Yankees bringing Nestor Cortez. He had not pitched

189
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:08,199
Speaker 2: in six weeks and he only threw two pitches last night.

190
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 2: The first one was the face show, Hey o Tani

191
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:12,839
Speaker 2: with two on and you think, I mean everyone thought,

192
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 2: this is it, this is the guy you wanted to play.

193
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 2: Otani's gonna be the one to get it done. And

194
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 2: then he flies out on that.

195
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 4: Otani's numbers this postseason with runners in scoring position is outrageous,

196
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 4: Like that's what you thought. It's feast or famine, Like

197
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 4: it's only if there are guys on base. But like

198
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 4: he comes in so clutched, like he needs that extra

199
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 4: pression apparently literally, like so yeah, you thought that that

200
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 4: was he is our savior.

201
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:37,679
Speaker 1: Then it didn't happen.

202
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:42,319
Speaker 2: Then the Yankees intentionally walk Mookie Betts to get to

203
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 2: Freddy Freeman, and in that moment, I was so confused, like,

204
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 2: do they not remember who Freddy Freeman is also an MVP.

205
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 2: I didn't even have time to process what was happening

206
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 2: because I was so confused on the intentional walk and

207
00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 2: then first pitch, Freddy hits that grand Slam to walk

208
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 2: it off and win Game one, and you know what, I'm.

209
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: So happy it was Freddy.

210
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 2: He has had such an emotional year with the illness

211
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 2: of his son, all the injuries he's been battling through.

212
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 1: He immediately ran over to celebrate with his dad.

213
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 2: And then thanked his dad for throwing batting practice his

214
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,719
Speaker 2: whole life, and that was a legendary moment. In Baseball two,

215
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 2: he talked about kind of what his dad has meant

216
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 2: to him.

217
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 3: Hey, Freddie, what did it feel like rounding the bases there?

218
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,800
Speaker 7: I felt like nothing, you know, I just kind of floating.

219
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 7: Those are the kind of thing.

220
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 1: No, we already played that one. Do we have the

221
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: one of his dad?

222
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 6: No?

223
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 2: Okay, it was insane. He literally said this was for

224
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 2: my dad. It was not for me. He spent my

225
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 2: entire life throwing batting practice, and he thanked his dad

226
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 2: for everything that he did for him. He was the

227
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:51,960
Speaker 2: first person he ran up and just screamed in his

228
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 2: face through the net behind the plate. I mean, it

229
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 2: was incredible. That was the first ever walk off Grand

230
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 2: Slam in World Series history. David Roberts after the game,

231
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 2: he was asked like, how much do you root for

232
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 2: Freddy in a situation with all he's been through? And

233
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 2: he said, the game honors you when you play the

234
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 2: game the right way, when you're a good teammate, the

235
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 2: game honors you. And tonight Freddy was honored and he

236
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 2: found a way to keep moving forward with his teammates.

237
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 2: Now let's go to the other side, because the big

238
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 2: question after the game to Yankees manager Aaron Boone was

239
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 2: why would you bring in Nestor Cortes when he hasn't

240
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 2: pitched since mid September. Right, we know that he's a

241
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:36,200
Speaker 2: lefty specialist, but to have your first matchup Botani the

242
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 2: bottom of the tenth game on the line in the

243
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 2: World Series is a little crazy. Now, he did his

244
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 2: job versus Otani. It worked out Versutani, but we also

245
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 2: need to have.

246
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:52,439
Speaker 1: A moment for that catch. Alex Verdugo, Like what a baddie.

247
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 2: He went over the wall to catch Otani's ball bottom

248
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 2: of the tens. He held onto it and threw it

249
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 2: back in. I mean that was bad asking. He had

250
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 2: a sliding catch to send it, yes too.

251
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, No, he was incredible.

252
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,079
Speaker 4: He had so many good plays that kept the Yankees

253
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 4: in this game single handedly. He was the MVP of

254
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:12,319
Speaker 4: that of that game for the Yankees. Oh yeah, particularly

255
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:16,560
Speaker 4: or John Carlos Stanton home run hero, I mean run

256
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,079
Speaker 4: hero six in the postseason.

257
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, he is.

258
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 2: He's like everything that we always thought he was going

259
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:25,080
Speaker 2: to be. Like when he was in his prime with Miami,

260
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 2: were like slowly starting to see that Stanton like come back.

261
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 2: I mean, he was thought to be like one of

262
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 2: the he was going to be one of the greats.

263
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 2: But he's dealt with a lot of injuries throughout his career.

264
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 2: But he, like you forget like that is a power hitter. Yes,

265
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 2: like absolutely insane. And I mean when Aaron Boone explained,

266
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 2: he said he thought that nessor looked good in his bullpen,

267
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 2: But honestly, that's nothing compared to a World Series scenario.

268
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 4: But I like I kind of understand. I mean the

269
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 4: stays are have never been higher. This is a World Series.

270
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 4: You have faith in your guys.

271
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 2: But he hasn't pitched in a game scenario in six weeks.

272
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 3: In six weeks, okay, that's a big deal.

273
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 2: It didn't matter though he didn't have like a live

274
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:12,439
Speaker 2: game like you do a bullpen.

275
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 1: You go, I do.

276
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,080
Speaker 4: I tend to think, if you are the manager, this

277
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 4: is your job to trust your guys, to put them

278
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 4: in these scenarios and say.

279
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 5: I believe in you to rise to the occasion.

280
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 4: And to be fair. Again against Otani, he did so.

281
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 4: He went out there as the left handed hitter specialist,

282
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 4: and he delivered on that regard.

283
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 1: He didn't clean the jobby, lost the game.

284
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,199
Speaker 4: But I mean you're talking about which he got to

285
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 4: two outs, that that was a dream scenario for Freddie Freeman.

286
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 4: That the first thing I tweeted about it was this

287
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 4: is what dreams are made of. Grand slam walk off

288
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 4: in the World Series. That's like, you know, obviously he's

289
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:51,080
Speaker 4: never happened, just absolutely perfection. But like the Yankees were

290
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 4: one out away from sending it into the.

291
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 2: Next There were some tweets that already went out that

292
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 2: Yankees won Game one, of the World Series, like they

293
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 2: got screenshotted of like oh a little too soon, buddy,

294
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 2: little too well.

295
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:06,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, obviously you don't count your chickens before

296
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:12,439
Speaker 4: their hatch, but I I see that as all right,

297
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 4: I'm putting my faith in my guys, and I know

298
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 4: that he hasn't pitched in six weeks. But this scenario,

299
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 4: all the adrenaline, all of Like, this is what you

300
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 4: work your entire career for, is these specifics. Yeah, you also,

301
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 4: like you need to be prepared in games.

302
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 5: I mean, he looked good. If he looked good in

303
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 5: his bullpen. He looked good in.

304
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 1: His bullpen, so much different than like facing we were we're.

305
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 4: Very My point is like we're very close from saying

306
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 4: the exact opposite, and how that was a heroic decision

307
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 4: by Aaron Boone.

308
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 5: Because it almost worked out that it didn't.

309
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 4: It didn't, but like that's that's you know, that's the

310
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 4: benefit of hindsight any scenario.

311
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 1: It really is.

312
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 2: But that was a legendary win for the Dodgers and

313
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 2: crazy momentum that can be carried over to today. This

314
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 2: is a match made you guys in World Series Heaven. Like,

315
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 2: let's just take a moment and like, appreciate what we're

316
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 2: getting right now because we have the biggest stars in

317
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 2: baseball Shotani and Aaron Judger like the face but like

318
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 2: Mookie Bets, Freddie Freeman, Wan Soto, John Carlos Stanton, the

319
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 2: pitching staffs, Like any moment, anyone can be the hero,

320
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 2: as we saw last night. Like also like the history

321
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 2: la versus New York East Coast versus West Coast, two

322
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 2: of the biggest sports cities.

323
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 1: In the United States, Like it's just it's so cool.

324
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 2: And then also shout out to the Dodgers who did

325
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 2: a special moment honoring Fernando Venezuela but with a game,

326
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 2: Like I started crying when they showed the Fernando mania

327
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 2: and his family and the fans reaction. And I don't

328
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 2: mean to, like I'm not comparing, but the Lakers one

329
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty after Kobe passed, and there's always something

330
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 2: magical that happens with the team when there is some

331
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 2: sort of like do it for a legend and there's

332
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 2: like an added emotion added to everything.

333
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 4: I just well, and for Nano Blazola was like around

334
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 4: a lot, Oh yeah.

335
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 2: No, you're a part of the team. And the broadcast after.

336
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 2: He was not only a Dodger legend when he played, right,

337
00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:00,200
Speaker 2: but he yeah, he stayed with the organ.

338
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,119
Speaker 4: She was like another guy that was just so phenomenal

339
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 4: to get to know. Like even again, in the short

340
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 4: time of the organization, it was it was him, it

341
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 4: was Tommy.

342
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 5: Losordo was still around.

343
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 4: Like, Yeah, all of these guys that you know now

344
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 4: are are gone, but they still left their lasting legacy there.

345
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 4: And it's because not only of who they were as players,

346
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 4: but who they were in the front office too.

347
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 1: It's incredible.

348
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 2: I mean, if it's anything like last night, like tonight's matchup,

349
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 2: we have Yoshinobu Yamamoto for the Dodgers, Carlos Rodin going

350
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 2: for the Yankees. We're in for quite possibly the best

351
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 2: World Series of our lives. Yeah, that was a big

352
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 2: pickup by the Yankees.

353
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 5: Supposed to be.

354
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean for sure in our lifetime.

355
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 2: I mean, okay, real quick, we're gonna give our World

356
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 2: Series predictions. I'm going Dodgers in six so they can

357
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 2: come home and win it back in LA.

358
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 4: If Game one was in indicator, this thing's going to seven.

359
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 4: So I actually I have the Yankees winning in seven.

360
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 2: Oh no, baby, we are no longer friends when the

361
00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:57,760
Speaker 2: games are on.

362
00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: But that's okay.

363
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 2: You chose a side, babe.

364
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,400
Speaker 5: This is I know. That's my objective opinion.

365
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 8: Yep.

366
00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:10,199

Speaker 2: York friends, We're not friends for the next nine days.

Speaker 1: And that's okay.

369
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 5: I'm not a New York friend.

Speaker 2: Everything today from like last night, World series again today,

385
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 2: Like I am so hyped. Any kind of music to

386
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 2: keep pumping me up is really dangerous. Okay, But let's

387
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 2: talk about the other history, you guys, that was made

388
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:12,920
Speaker 2: in LA this week.

389
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:15,880
Speaker 1: Lebron and Bronnie James.

390
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 2: The moment we've all been waiting for happened on NBA

391
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,919
Speaker 2: Opening night. Lebron James and his son, Bronnie James playing

392
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 2: together history in the NBA, the first ever father son

393
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,160
Speaker 2: duo to ever play in a game together. The only

394
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 2: other really father son duo to do it in sports

395
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,239
Speaker 2: was in baseball and they were court side. You had

396
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 2: Ken Griffy and Ken Griffy Junior.

397
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 1: Duel.

398
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,600
Speaker 2: Was a little different situation because Ken Griffy Junior ended

399
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 2: up being the Hall of Famer.

400
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 1: But I think the Lakers handled it perfectly.

401
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 5: You guys.

402
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:50,120
Speaker 2: They put in their first round draft pick first, don't connect.

403
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 1: He got put in first.

404
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 2: And then subbed in Bronnie and Lebron at the same time. Now,

405
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 2: the fact that they did this in the first game

406
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,879
Speaker 2: of the season, they checked in to the game together,

407
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,880
Speaker 2: they had the first other father son pass was an

408
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:09,679
Speaker 2: incredible moment for the family and Lebron James and we

409
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 2: had it, it was done, and now the Lakers can

410
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:15,159
Speaker 2: can look forward.

411
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:17,439
Speaker 4: You know, I think that's got That's part of what

412
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 4: got overblown about this whole thing was everybody understands that

413
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 4: this is a novelty thing. Nobody was ever like even

414
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 4: when the Lakers drafted Bronnie in the second round. Second

415
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 4: rounders are always developmental guys, yep, So it was never

416
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 4: going to be like, oh, they were going to make

417
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,360
Speaker 4: sure that Bronnie got significant minutes or anything like that,

418
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 4: like he's going to have to earn that if he

419
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 4: gets Yeah, but there was a novelty aspect to this,

420
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 4: and it's really cool that. I mean, basketball too, is

421
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,919
Speaker 4: so incredibly unique. I think again, baseball is kind of

422
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 4: the same given that Ken Griffin and Kangrigg Junior did it,

423
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,120
Speaker 4: where yeah, you can play much later into your life

424
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 4: than most other sports. Like, yes, I struggle, I mean

425
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 4: never say never, But like I think it would be

426
00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:01,440
Speaker 4: really hard to happen in foot maybe it could happen

427
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:01,800
Speaker 4: in hockey.

428
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 5: Some of these guys are pretty nut.

429
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,880
Speaker 2: Lebron's ad his twenty second season, Yeah, like that is insane.

430
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,479
Speaker 2: And again to all the people who have a problem

431
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 2: with this, like get over it. This was for Lebron James,

432
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,919
Speaker 2: one of the greatest players of all time. He was

433
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 2: so vocal about wanting to play with his son that

434
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 2: it's probably the main reason we're still getting to watch

435
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 2: Lebron James play and break all of these legendary records.

436
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 2: You guys, Like last season he became the all time

437
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 2: NBA leading scorer, So now every time he scores, he's

438
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,440
Speaker 2: breaking and creating his own history.

439
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 5: He's furthering his own record.

440
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 4: I really appreciate it Spanish James for this because my

441
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,400
Speaker 4: girl was not court side. Now she had the kids'

442
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,880
Speaker 4: court side, but she was in the couple back rows,

443
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:46,200
Speaker 4: and like, honestly, if I were her.

444
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 5: I would have been an absolute wreck.

445
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:48,880
Speaker 4: So I would have absolutely not wanted to be court

446
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:50,959
Speaker 4: side because I probably would have had tears like streaming

447
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 4: down past the entire time. So my girl is hiding

448
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 4: a couple rows back, just enjoying the game with the crowd.

449
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 4: I love that for her, honestly, and I I commend

450
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,120
Speaker 4: her for it because I would be the same way.

451
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 4: I would not want to be courtside. I wouldn't want

452
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 4: to be in the spotlight when all of that happened.

453
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:09,640
Speaker 4: I would want to be just kind of back enjoying

454
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,760
Speaker 4: it from a fan perspective, because you get that way,

455
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 4: you get the best of both worlds. You get to

456
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:15,480
Speaker 4: be the mom, the wife, and the fan.

457
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 2: And it was a moment for their family, like this

458
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 2: was for Lebron James. Like everyone's like, oh, he got

459
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,679
Speaker 2: it because it's his son. I was like, excuse me,

460
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 2: the owner of the Lakers, Geniemus took over the Lakers

461
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 2: because her father owned the team. Like this happens in

462
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 2: every every aspect of life, every business. And this is

463
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 2: the greatest player playing the game right now. And if

464
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,159
Speaker 2: he wants his son to play with him, so he

465
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 2: can play longer and we get more time getting to

466
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:50,239
Speaker 2: watch Lebron James. This is a gift. Appreciate greatness when

467
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 2: it's right in front of your face. He's creating history,

468
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 2: breaking his own records every single night that he's on

469
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 2: the court. And then he created this history being the

470
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 2: first there's a duo playing with the Sun and it

471
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 2: was incredible, And you know what, I'm excited for the Lakers.

472
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 2: The hype feels real that like opening wind Tuesday was

473
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 2: the Lakers first Opening Night win since twenty sixteen. JJ

474
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,880
Speaker 2: Redick looked in control, mainly because Lebron has mad respect

475
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 2: for JJ, so everyone else on the team's going to follow.

476
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:16,880
Speaker 1: The Lakers look great.

477
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 2: Ad had a great game, like things are looking up

478
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 2: for Lake Show and I'm just so happy.

479
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 1: But now let's check Givenick copen, see what's trending?

480
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 5: All right?

481
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:31,639
Speaker 10: We might have some interesting brewing in Nashville again.

482
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,200
Speaker 4: Really, oh god, I had to pick this game. Tell

483
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:34,880
Speaker 4: me what's happening?

484
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 3: So quinni Ors Texas got the ball.

485
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 10: First ball tipped at the line, picked off Diego Pavio.

486
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 10: You're gonna get the highlight here for you soon. But

487
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 10: Pavia an incredible scramble down the sideline, like a fifteen

488
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 10: twenty yard run.

489
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 3: It is seven to nothing Vandy, Oh.

490

Speaker 10: Five minutes into the first quarter on number five Texas Oregon.

491
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,159
Speaker 10: The number one dunks at seven to zero. They've had

492
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,640
Speaker 10: a fast start. Taking on number twenty Illinois, pump Fick

493
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 10: called the.

494
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:02,560

00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 9: bad crap said, ball rolls in touchdown Oregon.

498
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,600
Speaker 10: Thanks Jerry Allen from Learfield and Dylan Gabriel right as

00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,119
Speaker 10: we are listening to that, just scored on the ground.

500
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 10: So twenty to three extra point pending Oregon all over

501
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,679
Speaker 10: Illinois early second quarter. You've got another seven to oh

502
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 10: team and number eleven BYU. They're up ten zip on

503
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:33,399
Speaker 10: UCF early second quarter in Orlando and a low scoring

504
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:36,800

00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 10: Number twenty one Missouri three to nothing.

506
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 3: Finals from earlier.

507
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,640
Speaker 10: Number four Ohio State survived to scare from Nebraska twenty

508
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 10: one to seventeen the final at the Horseshoe. Number thirteen

509
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,639
Speaker 10: Indiana is now eight to oher after beating Washington thirty

510
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 10: one seventeen. Indiana has not trailed at any point this season.

511
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,199
Speaker 10: They're the first team in twenty years to accomplish that

512
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,359
Speaker 10: in their first eight games of a season. Number eighteen

513
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 10: Ole miss to four point halftime deficit to beat Oklahoma

514
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 10: twenty six to fourteen and keep themselves alive for a

515
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:09,399
Speaker 10: college football playoff bid. Number twelve Notre Dame throttled Navy

516
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 10: fifty one to fourteen. The number twenty four Mids were

517
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,399
Speaker 10: six and zero. It's the largest ranked win for the

518
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 10: Irish since ninety two. Couple NFL NFL notes quickly, Dolphins

519
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:21,680
Speaker 10: have officially activated, to a tongue of iiloa. It's gonna

520
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 10: be a wait and see on Commander's quarterback Jaden Daniels

521
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 10: for their home game against the Bears tomorrow. Daniels went

522
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 10: through walkthrough today, trending towards being a game time decision.

523
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 10: A potential clue here, Karmi, is that Washington did not

524
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,640
Speaker 10: elevate Sam Hartman from the practice squad to make sure

525
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 10: that that has.

526
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:43,160
Speaker 4: Strategy hill the quarterback apartment deserves some camera time quite honestly,

527
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 4: nothing else, but they do have to. I believe they

528
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 4: have three. They carry three quarterbacks on their fifty three. Yes,

529
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,400
Speaker 4: so it doesn't necessarily necessitate a move even if Jayden

530
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:51,880
Speaker 4: doesn't play.

531
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,680
Speaker 5: But your point is taken. I still think it's gonna play.

532
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:55,320
Speaker 3: I do too.

533
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 10: The Cowboys are planning to activate running back Dalvin Cook.

534
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 10: They've got the Niners tomorrow. ESPN says the Rams are

535
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 10: open to trading former All Pro corner Tredavius White. He's

536
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 10: been in active the last couple of games. Chargers elevated

537
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,920
Speaker 10: receivers Jalen Johnson and Jalen Rager and as we get

538
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 10: ready for Game two of the World Series tonight at

539
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,879
Speaker 10: eight eastern on Fox. Got the viewership numbers in for

540
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 10: Game one, fifteen point two million viewers. That's the most

541
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 10: watched Game one of the World Series since Astros Dodgers

542
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 10: in twenty seventeen.

543
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:26,320
Speaker 3: Back to you, Dodgers.

544
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,359
Speaker 2: I want to know what the Japan ratings were, because

545
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:29,919
Speaker 2: it's like.

546
00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,200
Speaker 5: We should we should add that. We got it in

547
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 5: the morning.

548
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 2: We got to figure out what was Japan if like, yeah,

549
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 2: producer Patrick, we figure that out at some point so

550
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:37,720
Speaker 2: we can get that.

551
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 9: Yeah.

552
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,160
Speaker 3: Don't think Nielsen tracks in Japan.

553
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 2: No, but they put out they put They put it

554
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:43,920
Speaker 2: out though, and it's always insane.

555
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,400
Speaker 1: It's like double madness. Thank you, Nick.

561
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 2: NFL on Fox podcast Bestie of the Show, Dave Hellman.

562
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 1: How are we doing?

563
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,160
Speaker 11: Good to be back y'all, I'm doing great.

564
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 1: Are are we out and about yet?

565
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,880
Speaker 2: For LSU, We're not out and about yet.

566
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:12,240
Speaker 11: We're I'm gonna.

567
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,880
Speaker 1: I was hoping to get spicy Dave like it's.

568
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 11: Now not quite yet. As soon as I hang up

569
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,160
Speaker 11: the phone, it's time for spicy Day.

570
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:22,120
Speaker 2: That's very responsible of you. I appreciate it. Well, let's

571
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 2: start with your Cowboys, because the Cowboys always have Super

572
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 2: Bowl expectations.

573
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 1: Right going into each season.

574
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 2: Hasn't been the case for a while, but things have

575
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 2: not been going smooth for Dallas at all. What's going

576
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:35,640
Speaker 2: to be the key for them to turn things around

577
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 2: coming out of their bye week?

578
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 11: Oh my gosh, I mean the list is long. Yeah, go,

579
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,120
Speaker 11: it's quite a laundry list of problems for the Cowboys,

580
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 11: and I mean it's a larger conversation. But I think

581
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,919
Speaker 11: that's the interesting point about this year's Cowboys team is

582
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 11: we have high expectations for them because of what they've

583
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 11: done and who they are. But it was hard to

584
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:59,639
Speaker 11: see super Bowl roster with what the Cowboys did this

585
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 11: offen Sea, and I think you're seeing that come to fruition.

586
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,640
Speaker 11: So I'm interested to see how they rebound because It's

587
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 11: not just that they're three and three. I mean they're

588
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 11: three and three while losing those three losses by an

589
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:15,760
Speaker 11: average of twenty five points. It's just not something that

590
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,439
Speaker 11: a Super Bowl contender does. And now you come out

591
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 11: here to California. They're playing in the Bay Area against

592
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:24,360
Speaker 11: their boogeyman. You know, they've lost three straight to the Niners.

593
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 11: They lost by thirty in Santa Clara last year. For starters,

594
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 11: they're going to have to learn how to stop the

595
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,160
Speaker 11: run because they're the worst team in the NFL at

596
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:36,200
Speaker 11: doing it. Kyle Shanahan happens to know a thing or

597
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 11: two about running the football. If they can't do that,

598
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 11: I just don't see them having a chance. So that's

599
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,920
Speaker 11: where it starts for me. And then from there, Dak

600
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,640
Speaker 11: Prescatt's got to play better. Their receivers have to find

601
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,359
Speaker 11: time to get open. The offensive line could stand to

602
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 11: protect a little bit better. So literally everything about this

603
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 11: Cowboys team other than their kicker could stand to improve.

604
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 11: But I think it starts with playing better against the run.

605
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,240
Speaker 4: I think everything starts on the ground because you also

606
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:05,359
Speaker 4: have to get some sort of ground game going so

607
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 4: as not to leave Dak Prescott and ceedee Lamb as

608
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 4: the only hope that this offense has to score points.

609
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:14,600
Speaker 4: I mean, we talked about this at an ad nauseam

610
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,399
Speaker 4: prior to the season, about how the Cowboys didn't have

611
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,960
Speaker 4: enough weapons on offense, they weren't doing enough to help

612
00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 4: Dak between starting two rookies on the offensive line, and

613
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,600
Speaker 4: Jerry Jones flat out came out and said, we're expecting

614
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 4: Dak to do more with less. So I just do

615
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,480
Speaker 4: you think that this team has hit its ceiling? Do

616
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 4: you think that there's more that they have to give

617
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 4: that we just haven't seen. Like Mike McCarthy seems to

618
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 4: be on the hot seat. What can he do to

619
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 4: really improve this team at this.

620
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 11: Point, I'll give the Cowboys a benefit of the doubt.

621
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 11: I do think it gets lost in the noise that

622
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 11: they looked really mediocre through the first six weeks of

623
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 11: last season two, and they got drilled by San Francisco.

624
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 11: They went into thereby, they reached Ale and they came

625
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,479
Speaker 11: out and looked like a much better team. Their passing

626
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 11: offense was much more explosive, they scored more points, they

627
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 11: moved the ball more easily. Maybe they got back in

628
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 11: the lab over the bye week and can do something similar.

629
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 11: But it's hard for me to see because A, I

630
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 11: think the talent level is worse. You still have two

631
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:23,560
Speaker 11: rookies on your offensive line. You don't have Tony Pollard anymore,

632
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 11: Brandon Cooks is on injured reserve. But I just I

633
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 11: don't think the depth on the offense is there the

634
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 11: way it was last year. And on top of that,

635
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,560
Speaker 11: if you have so many ways to improve, why does

636
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,640
Speaker 11: it take six weeks of ballgames to figure that out?

637
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 11: So I think the Cowboys can play better football. Do

638
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 11: I think the Cowboys can improve enough to be seen

639
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,120
Speaker 11: as a true contender? I really don't. And if I'm

640
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 11: wrong about that, I'll be happy to admit it.

641
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 2: I mean, Jerry Jones also said he won't be looking

642
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 2: to make any trades at the deadline in a couple

643
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 2: of weeks here on November fifth. Do you agree with

644
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 2: that strategy? I mean, you were just saying like they

645
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 2: don't have a enough product.

646
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 11: The funny thing is, at this point, I kind of

647
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 11: do agree because if the Cowboys looked promising, but you

648
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:10,880
Speaker 11: look at it and you're like, you know, kind of

649
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 11: kind of like the Buffalo Bills, if you know, the

650
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 11: Bills have been a really solid team, but you kind

651
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,000
Speaker 11: of watch them on offense and you're like, man, they're

652
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 11: just they're a guy away. They need one more guy

653
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 11: that can win his matchup, and they go out and

654
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,240
Speaker 11: get Amari Cooper. If the Cowboys look like that, yeah,

655
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 11: I would be on board. But the Cowboys don't look

656
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 11: like they're a player away. They look like they're about

657
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 11: a half dozen players away. And some some of that

658
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 11: can be helped, you know, it is worth pointing out

659
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 11: they haven't had all pro corner Duran Bland all season.

660
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 11: He's coming back from a foot injury. Micah Parsons is

661
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 11: going to miss this game. I think it's his third

662
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 11: straight miss. So their defense will be better when they

663
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 11: get some guys back from injury. But do I think

664
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,600
Speaker 11: this team is like one trade away from having a

665
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 11: run in them. I really don't. And so if that's

666
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 11: the case, you're probably better off taking your medicine this year.

667
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 11: And will I mean, I'm sure Mike McCarthy doesn't want

668
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 11: to hear that, but that's the situation you wind up

669
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,600
Speaker 11: in when the owner doesn't want to renew your contract.

670
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 11: So I'm curious to see what that means. In the

671
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 11: big picture, like I'm gonna I'm gonna go out on

672
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 11: a limb and say, I don't think this is the

673
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 11: year the Cowboys in their Super Bowl drought. And if

674
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 11: that's the case, do they move forward with Mike McCarthy.

675
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 11: I really don't know the answer.

676
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the biggest thing, one thing I wanted to

677
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 4: get your thoughts on, because again we've had conversations about it,

678
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,720
Speaker 4: and you know better than anybody. There was an article

679
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 4: that came out Kaylen Coller for ESPN wrote it just

680
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,560
Speaker 4: about these tours that happen at the Star, and the

681
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,680
Speaker 4: Star is the Dallas Cowboys facility in Frisco, Texas. And

682
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,000
Speaker 4: the thing is most most places do tours. Yeah, most

683
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 4: teams have tours of their stadium, make some of their facility.

684
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,840
Speaker 4: But the Cowboys do it when there are actually players around.

685
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,400
Speaker 4: And that's the different part of all of this. How

686
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 4: much of an effect does that have on the team, Dave?

687
00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:58,000
Speaker 4: And what is kind of the domino effect of that

688
00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 4: and opening and operating your business like that as an

689
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:02,680
Speaker 4: NFL football team.

690
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:06,239
Speaker 11: It's it's an interesting conversation and I really don't think

691
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:09,280
Speaker 11: there's a blanket answer, and you kind of saw that

692
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 11: in the media this week. You know, Dak Prescott was

693
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 11: asked about it. He had he had the perfect answer

694
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 11: and you know, said something along the lines of, I mean,

695
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,240
Speaker 11: do you want to view it as a distraction or

696
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 11: do you want to view it as a blessing that

697
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 11: you play for a team that so many people want

698
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:26,120
Speaker 11: to have eyes on? You know, and if you know,

699
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,920
Speaker 11: how can you be distracted by people touring your facility

700
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 11: and go out and expect to play in front of

701
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 11: one hundred thousand people every week, which is totally fair.

702
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:37,280
Speaker 11: Then fifteen minutes later, Seedee Lamb was like, I don't

703
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 11: really want to talk about it, but yeah, sometimes it's

704
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:41,360
Speaker 11: a distraction. And so, I mean, you know, two different

705
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:44,160
Speaker 11: people can come to two different conclusions. The bottom line

706
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 11: is it's it's just the reality of the Dallas Cowboys.

707
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 11: I mean, I worked there for ten years. They have tours,

708
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 11: they you know, they allow an unprecedented, unprecedented amount of access.

709
00:32:56,360 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 11: Jerry Jones doesn't believe in the idea of negative attention.

710
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 11: You know, whether it's tours, whether it's you know, they

711
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,880
Speaker 11: have contest winners that get to hang out in the

712
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:12,080
Speaker 11: war room during draft weekends, like well, I mean, what

713
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 11: else can I think on top of just fan access.

714
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 11: I mean, we know who Jerry Jones is. Jerry Jones

715
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 11: had said multiple times this season he doesn't never want

716
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 11: it to get too boring, and if it does, he's

717
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 11: going to stir something up. I mean the year for

718
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 11: rush replaced Dak Prescott for a month. Yeah, I mean,

719
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 11: he said, you know, I want there to be a

720
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:35,880
Speaker 11: quarterback controversy. It's just just the wildest stuff that really

721
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 11: it only makes sense within the context of the Cowboys.

722
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:43,240
Speaker 11: And like, do I think all of that is the

723
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 11: reason why the Cowboys haven't gotten over the hump? I don't,

724
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 11: but I do think it is an added hurdle that

725
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 11: your team has to clear. It's an added thing that

726
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 11: you have to be good enough to overcome, whereas other

727
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,720
Speaker 11: teams are going to do everything they can to remove

728
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:03,120
Speaker 11: any sort of obstacle that's not football related from their players.

729
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 11: Like I said, is it the reason why the Cowboys

730
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 11: haven't experienced the success they want? I really don't think so,

731
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:12,680
Speaker 11: and I think a good enough team can overcome all

732
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 11: that stuff. But like I said, it's just it's putting

733
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,920
Speaker 11: a hurdle in front of your team that doesn't need

734
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 11: to be there.

735
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:21,120
Speaker 1: For the Cowboys though.

736
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, it's the way the Cowboys operate.

737
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:24,439
Speaker 1: It's so on, Brad.

738
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,439
Speaker 2: Before we let you go real quick, like, just give

739
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,320
Speaker 2: me the team name Cowboys forty nine ers is the

740
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:29,919
Speaker 2: game of the week.

741
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:30,840
Speaker 1: Who you take in?

742
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 11: I cannot, in good conscience expect the Cowboys to win

743
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 11: this game and let until they prove they can stop

744
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 11: the run, I mean even without I mean Jordan Mason

745
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 11: is one of the league leaders in Russields. I expect

746
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,480
Speaker 11: the Niners to run the ball well. Yeah, and you know,

747
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,239
Speaker 11: maybe the Cowboys can reach tool enough that this is

748
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,600
Speaker 11: a competitive game. But I'll take the I'll take the

749
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:54,319
Speaker 11: Niners by by six or more.

750
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:57,279
Speaker 2: Dave, We love you, thank you so much for joining us,

00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:50,280
Speaker 5: That's insane.

772
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,440
Speaker 3: Next time for the dues and the dose in sports.

773
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm gonna start with the do do support your

774
00:35:57,080 --> 00:36:03,320
Speaker 2: friends from high school to the Mays. Lucas Giulio, Max Freed,

775
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 2: and Jack Flaherty all pitched together at Harvard Westlake High

776
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 2: School and are obviously now all Major League Baseball pitchers.

777
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:14,320
Speaker 2: In twenty twenty one, Flarity and Giulido supported Max Freed

778
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:17,319

Speaker 4: But also, like, my god, man, Robert Sala, you are

792

800
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:07,879
Speaker 4: though him and Jeff Hafley are friends too.

801

Speaker 4: He is working with Jordan Love and I think that's

804
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:15,279
Speaker 4: a tremendous asset to have a defensive guy to kind

805
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 4: of round out your perspective on offense.

806
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 5: It's that might be kind of like an underrated like

807
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 5: secret weapon.

808
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:23,040
Speaker 2: What else the hackers like a slap in the face

809
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,239
Speaker 2: to Aaron Rodgers, like, fine, we don't get along, you

00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:49,719
Speaker 2: get a lot of Angels content in my social media feed,

820
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,240
Speaker 2: and Angel fans have been very vocal about watching Otani

821
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 2: play in the World Series his first year in LA and.

822
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:57,000

824
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:02,120

826

00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:12,919
Speaker 2: on TV smiling and laughing and enjoying life way more

828
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:16,080
Speaker 2: than she ever did with you. I feel sing so

829
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:19,760
Speaker 2: sad for Angel fans, but I'm so happy for Atani

830
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:21,600
Speaker 2: because he deserves this and so much more.

831
00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:22,479
Speaker 7: Yeah.

832
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:24,759
Speaker 1: Oh, okay, all right, I've got I've got it.

833
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:25,880
Speaker 5: Don't oh, let's go.

834
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,920
Speaker 4: Don't lose your inner child. Never there was a study

835
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:31,440
Speaker 4: that came out. This is my favorite time of year.

836
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:34,760
Speaker 4: Every year, it seems. Yeah, the general public is made

837
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:38,960
Speaker 4: aware again of the fact that NFL players love their uncrustables.

838
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 3: Oh my god, yes, I saw this.

839
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 4: So the Athletic posted, they wrote an article, They did

840
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:46,760
Speaker 4: a bunch of research. They got teams I think twenty

841
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:48,759
Speaker 4: four of the thirty two teams involved in this, and

842
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:52,759
Speaker 4: asked how many uncrescibles these guys consumed. Insane and I

843
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 4: mean the number is in the tens of thousands.

844
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:56,319
Speaker 1: It's insane.

845
00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:00,319
Speaker 4: As someone who worked in an NFL facility for six years,

846
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:02,799
Speaker 4: I can tell you, I can I can corroborate all

847
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:03,080
Speaker 4: of this.

848
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 5: Guys were literally like freak out.

849
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:07,680
Speaker 4: On the sideline if they didn't have their uncrustables. I

850
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:09,439
Speaker 4: have not had one because I'm allergic to peanut butter,

851
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:10,920
Speaker 4: but I have had the hazel on that version of

852
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,399
Speaker 4: them so good and I completely understand it, and like

853
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:17,840
Speaker 4: they're like the most unhealthy thing that nutritionists will let

854
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:20,240
Speaker 4: you get away with, essentially because like in NFL buildings,

855
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,360
Speaker 4: you have a nutritionus that kind of regulates what snacks

856
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:26,040
Speaker 4: are oah like at least in the building. And Uncrustables

857
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 4: are by far and away the most popular. These guys

858
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:31,440
Speaker 4: are popping two, three four like the linemen, like literally

859
00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 4: eat them on the sidelines.

860
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,480
Speaker 1: They're like little chips. That's crazy. I mean, I'm gluten

861
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,279
Speaker 1: free and I have been for seventeen years.

862
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:39,880
Speaker 4: A gluten free version if you're not, if for not

863
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:41,000
Speaker 4: alerts to peanut butter, no.

864
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:43,719
Speaker 5: To come up with an almond butter version.

865
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 4: Hey, uncrustables, if you see this, if you hear this,

866
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:50,240
Speaker 4: give me almond butter man who was solid to be included.

867
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:51,200
Speaker 4: I want to be involved.

868
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 2: Okay, one more quick, do do trust your gut. The

869
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 2: guy who caught Otani's fiftieth home run ball kept it

870
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:00,680
Speaker 2: after the Dodgers offered him three hundred thous dollars and

871
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:01,439
Speaker 2: he turned it down.

872
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 1: Well, it just sold for.

873
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:07,600
Speaker 2: Four point three nine to two million dollars, making it

874
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 2: the most expensive ball ever sold from any sport.

875
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 4: That's what Maybe that maybe that Dodger fan that caught

876
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 4: past game was thinking.

877
00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:20,800
Speaker 2: About, all right, when we come back into as return,

878
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:21,720
Speaker 2: save the Dolphin season.

879
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:23,920
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

880
00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:27,480
Speaker 2: Welcome to our two of Fox Football Saturday and Alex

881
00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:30,840
Speaker 2: Curry alongside Carmen Vitally, thank you for spending your Saturday

882
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:35,759
Speaker 2: afternoon with Carme and me. It's an incredible sports week,

883
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:37,640
Speaker 2: especially here in LA.

884
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:40,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep saying this.

885
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:43,160
Speaker 2: That was the best World Series game I have ever

886
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:46,480
Speaker 2: seen that we got last night Dodgers and Yankees. This

887
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:51,319
Speaker 2: whole series is just such a such a gift, and

888
00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:53,279
Speaker 2: I just you, guys, we saw the first walk off

889
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,600
Speaker 2: Grand slamon World Series history last night.

890
00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 1: Like inject that into my veins.

891
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:00,680
Speaker 2: We talked about this at the top of hour two,

892
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:04,240
Speaker 2: but there were so many crazy similarities between Kirk Gibson's Dodgers'

893
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:08,000
Speaker 2: home run in nineteen eighty eight and Freddy's. Both were

894
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,279
Speaker 2: Game one of the World Series, both battling injuries, both

895
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:12,960
Speaker 2: were hit into the right field stand area, both were

896
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:14,880
Speaker 2: with two out, and both home runs were hit at

897
00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:19,319
Speaker 2: eight thirty seven pm Pacific. So if Game one was

898
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:21,239
Speaker 2: any indication how the rest of the series is going

899
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 2: to be, we are in for a treat. But this

900
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:27,040
Speaker 2: week we also got sixteen NFL games three World Series games,

901
00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:30,160

Speaker 4: We're just like we're this season in general, I mean,

904
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:35,080
Speaker 4: this is one of the best college football seasons I

905
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 4: think we've ever.

906
00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:37,320

00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:40,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I mean Indiana, you just saw them, like

908
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:45,080
Speaker 4: make another statement. I'm so proud of them. It's taken

909
00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:47,360
Speaker 4: a lot for me. I actually picked them this week,

910
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 4: which took a lot.

911
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 1: Alex, So, do you have the connection to Indiana and

912
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:51,920

00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:56,799
Speaker 4: shout out Courtney Crone in a ESPN. She is a

915
00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:59,760
Speaker 4: huge user. One of my best friends, Audrey Leech, actually

916
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:01,600
Speaker 4: Audrey Tapling, I should say, she married one of my

917
00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:04,640
Speaker 4: best friends from growing up. I just I have a

918
00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:06,719
Speaker 4: lot of Indiana people in my life, and Indiana actually

919
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:08,759
Speaker 4: offered me money to go there way back in the day.

920
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,560
Speaker 4: But respect I didn't end up going there. I went

921
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:12,399
Speaker 4: to AirSim State in.

922
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 1: Stud What do you mean everything turned out great?

00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:14,719
Speaker 5: It did?

924
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:17,359
Speaker 4: It turned out great, But I mean Indiana is now

925
00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:18,600
Speaker 4: a football school apparently.

00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:18,839
Speaker 1: Yeah.

927
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,600
Speaker 4: So I just think I really appreciate it, but like

928
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:23,960
Speaker 4: it took me this long, and I think justifiably so

929
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 4: to trust them.

930
00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:27,720

Speaker 2: We have Little Nikki k joining us from Dodger Stadium

950
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:18,120
Speaker 2: in about thirty minutes. She was at that iconic game

951
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:21,239
Speaker 2: one last night. She's covering the game tonight, so so

952
00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:23,879
Speaker 2: excited to have her on in just a bit.

953
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:25,319
Speaker 1: But we're gonna start with.

954
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:29,240
Speaker 2: A fun play, a little fun game. Can they save

955
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:29,920
Speaker 2: their team?

956
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:32,680
Speaker 5: You always have to have steaks.

957
00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:39,320
Speaker 2: Yes, we do, so let's start in Miami. Can Tua

958
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:45,560
Speaker 2: save the Dolphins? I'm gonna say no. There's still a

959
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:50,680
Speaker 2: big issue here. He is still such a liability. If

960
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:54,480
Speaker 2: he gets hit bad one more time, gets one more concussion,

961
00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:57,840
Speaker 2: big concussion, not only will his season be over, his

962
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,560
Speaker 2: career could be over, and not to be over your but.

963
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,480
Speaker 1: His life could be over. This is a huge risk.

964
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 1: But it's his life, it's his choice, it's his career.

965
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:11,400
Speaker 2: For me personally, it's going to be terrifying to watch

966
00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:15,160
Speaker 2: literally every like if he gets sacked every run, I

967
00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:19,120
Speaker 2: feel like I'm going to be holding my breath exactly

968
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:22,479
Speaker 2: everybody and Tua also knows this is a big risk,

969
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:24,719
Speaker 2: and he had some thoughts on it earlier this week.

970
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:26,840
Speaker 12: How much risk did we take when we get up

971
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:29,680
Speaker 12: in the morning to go to God, drive to work,

972
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:30,840
Speaker 12: get into a car crash on me?

973
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:31,960
Speaker 3: I don't know everything.

974
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:34,640
Speaker 12: I think takes less to answer that question. Every time

975
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:36,440
Speaker 12: we all suit up, we're all taking a risk that

976
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:38,759
Speaker 12: we could potentially get hurt, whether it's a concussion, a

977
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:41,200
Speaker 12: broken bone, anything, you get up off of the bed

978
00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:43,600
Speaker 12: the wrong way, you potentially could risk you spraining your

979
00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:46,440
Speaker 12: ankle on There's just risk in any and everything.

980
00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:47,480
Speaker 11: I'm willing to play that.

981
00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:50,360
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sorry. This is just so different.

982
00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:52,920
Speaker 2: This is your brain, this is your head, and this

983
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 2: is something that you have to take very seriously because

984
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:59,399
Speaker 2: you have had like five now five major concussions going

985
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:01,080
Speaker 2: back to college. Yeah, to the point where he's had

986
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:02,920
Speaker 2: the hand movements when he's on the ground.

987
00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:08,640
Speaker 4: His last three I believes he's shown the posturing.

988
00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:11,480
Speaker 5: He's done the little posturing thing front of the show.

989
00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:13,799
Speaker 4: Brook Pryor said this on Twitter right after it was

990
00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:16,560
Speaker 4: not only announced that Tua was going to come back,

991
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:18,279
Speaker 4: but that he wasn't going to wear one of the

992
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:22,160
Speaker 4: Guardian caps. Like what to art and so Brooke Pryor

993
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:25,080
Speaker 4: she hit the nail on the head when she said, yes,

994
00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:26,920
Speaker 4: there is risk involved in getting in a car. You

995
00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:29,480
Speaker 4: could get in a car accident, but there are measures

996
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:31,920
Speaker 4: that you can take to reduce that risk. Yes, like

997
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:35,760
Speaker 4: seat belts, Yes, like breaking assist yeah, like power steering,

998
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:38,880
Speaker 4: Like there are things to mitigate risks and you should

999
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:42,840
Speaker 4: be doing everything you can't know. Again, this is Tua's prerogative.

1000
00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 4: I am not like and also I think a lot

1001
00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:48,440
Speaker 4: of this conversation, I think this needs to be said again,

1002
00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:50,680
Speaker 4: this is not coming from a place if we don't

1003
00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:52,960
Speaker 4: want to a yes seed or we don't want to

1004
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:55,959
Speaker 4: to play football. Again, I know he's worked his entire

1005
00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:58,359
Speaker 4: life for this. It's not something you can really turn

1006
00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:00,319
Speaker 4: off when basically a lot of your identity is tied

1007
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 4: up in being a football player. But where it's coming

1008
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:08,840
Speaker 4: from is genuine concern for Tua's safety, for the health

1009
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:12,960
Speaker 4: of him and his family. And that's where you know

1010
00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:15,279
Speaker 4: there's a difference of opinion. But again it's not my

1011
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:16,840
Speaker 4: call to make. It is to his call if he

1012
00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:18,200
Speaker 4: wants to go out there, if he wants to go

1013
00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:20,399
Speaker 4: out there without a guardian cape.

1014
00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:21,640
Speaker 5: The guardian cap.

1015
00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 4: Thing is is one of the things that really kind

1016
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:26,080
Speaker 4: of just it really rubs me the wrong way, just

1017
00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:27,760
Speaker 4: because of the fact, like I get that it doesn't

1018
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:31,040
Speaker 4: look cool, but save your life, it could save your life.

1019
00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:36,640
Speaker 4: You cannot choose vanity like Tua is beyond being able

1020
00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:39,640
Speaker 4: to make them like that. Choosing vanity over your own,

1021
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:41,359
Speaker 4: like because like he's too far gone at this point,

1022
00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:46,720
Speaker 4: he's already had enough concussions where yeah, so there shouldn't

1023
00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:51,680
Speaker 4: be a question on you doing absolutely everything you can

1024
00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:55,239
Speaker 4: to protect yourself. But if Tua can go out there

1025
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 4: and if he can play confidently, not scared of taking hits,

1026
00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:01,120
Speaker 4: all of that kind of stuff, I do believe that

1027
00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:05,239
Speaker 4: he can resurrect the Dolphins because in his because of

1028
00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:08,080
Speaker 4: his absence, they are thirty second in EPA per play.

1029
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:11,480
Speaker 4: They have a non explosive passing offense when you have

1030
00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:15,400
Speaker 4: guys like Tyreek Hill and Jalen Waddle who are Tyreek

1031
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,880
Speaker 4: Hill is an explosive play factory. And it's just been

1032
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:22,040
Speaker 4: a matter of the fact that the quarterbacks that Dolphins

1033
00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:25,560
Speaker 4: have had cannot get the ball to Tyreek Hill down

1034
00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:28,480
Speaker 4: the field or even in the intermediate and let him

1035
00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:30,640
Speaker 4: do the rest like he's so good at doing. Tua

1036
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:34,000
Speaker 4: can do that, and Tyreek Hill was talking a whole

1037
00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:36,720
Speaker 4: mess this week about how they're back and they're gonna

1038
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:39,520
Speaker 4: do it, and if Tua can come back and be confident,

1039
00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:43,360
Speaker 4: I think they can. I think they can contend for

1040
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:45,080
Speaker 4: a division that is still pretty up in the air.

1041
00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:46,839
Speaker 4: I think the Bills are running away with it, but

1042
00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:50,120
Speaker 4: you could still see the Dolphins kind of making a push,

1043
00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:52,360
Speaker 4: making a push for that wild card, especially in the AFC.

1044
00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:56,200
Speaker 4: I just don't know how realistic it is though, to

1045
00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:58,400
Speaker 4: expect two or to go out there without any reservations.

1046
00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:01,160
Speaker 5: And if he does, I mean, how how?

1047
00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:01,680
Speaker 1: I mean?

1048
00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:03,960
Speaker 2: I honestly like, I don't know if I'm going to

1049
00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:05,880
Speaker 2: be able to watch his games without having like a

1050
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:09,920
Speaker 2: pit in my stomach, like every play, every situation, it

1051
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:11,239
Speaker 2: happens one more time.

1052
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:13,440
Speaker 4: It also doesn't make me feel good that the Dolphins

1053
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,680
Speaker 4: again did not invest enough in the offensive right.

1054
00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:17,120
Speaker 5: He doesn't have the right protection.

1055
00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:19,879
Speaker 4: Coming into this season where you made the investment into

1056
00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:23,440
Speaker 4: a monetarily how you didn't fortify that line, like tarant

1057
00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:25,160
Speaker 4: Armstead as good of a left tackle as he is,

1058
00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:26,680
Speaker 4: as good of a dude as he is, but Tron

1059
00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:28,680
Speaker 4: is one of my favorite and favorites in the league.

1060
00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:30,799
Speaker 4: He's such a great guy. But you know that he's

1061
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:33,319
Speaker 4: going to miss time, yeah, because he's older, And that's

1062
00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:35,360
Speaker 4: just a gibbet at this point. Why you did not

1063
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:39,840
Speaker 4: solidify your offensive line, fortify that depth, bring in some

1064
00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:44,800
Speaker 4: other guys to protect your most valuable asset is beyond

1065
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:48,000
Speaker 4: me and the lack of team building and the way

1066
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:50,440
Speaker 4: that this team was constructed has been totally exposed by

1067
00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:52,479
Speaker 4: to his injury. Yeah, and it doesn't make me feel

1068
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:53,200
Speaker 4: good going forward.

1069
00:48:53,280 --> 00:48:56,400
Speaker 2: No, I pit in my stomach, terrifying to watch. Okay,

1070
00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:59,680
Speaker 2: let's move on and move to the NFC West. Can

1071
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:04,719
Speaker 2: Cooper Cup and Puka Nakua save the Rams? And I'm

1072
00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:08,919
Speaker 2: gonna say yes. The Rams are a well run team,

1073
00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:13,000
Speaker 2: from Sean McVay to Matthew Stafford and the other great

1074
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:15,719
Speaker 2: news for the Rams, the NFC West is pretty winnable

1075
00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:18,319
Speaker 2: right now. I mean, obviously they played on Thursday Night,

1076
00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:20,320
Speaker 2: but they're in like a three way tie right now

1077
00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:23,080
Speaker 2: with the Cardinals and the forty nine Ers. They're all

1078
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:25,920
Speaker 2: three and four and the Seahawks are only four and three.

1079
00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:29,960
Speaker 2: Like it's obviously it'll change this weekend once everyone else plays,

1080
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:33,240
Speaker 2: but two of their three wins have come against top teams.

1081
00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:34,799
Speaker 2: They beat the forty nine Ers on their home opener,

1082
00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:37,239
Speaker 2: a huge win over the Vikings Thursday Night Football, and

1083
00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:40,680
Speaker 2: now they just got their two biggest weapons back and

1084
00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:44,120
Speaker 2: they look good in Thursday Night, Like Cup had five

1085
00:49:44,200 --> 00:49:46,880
Speaker 2: catches and a touchdown. Puka Akua had seven catches one

1086
00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:48,240
Speaker 2: hundred and six yards.

1087
00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:51,399
Speaker 4: So yeah, they went to Puka over and over again,

1088
00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:54,120
Speaker 4: and it was very, very obvious that the Vikings just

1089
00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:56,399
Speaker 4: didn't prepare for that. And why would you have because

1090
00:49:56,400 --> 00:49:58,279
Speaker 4: he wasn't supposed to play that. Yeah, it was great,

1091
00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:00,880
Speaker 4: it was really. It was crazy to hear Sean McVay

1092
00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:02,040
Speaker 4: talk about it afterwards, like.

1093
00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:05,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, he looked really he looked good in practice,

1094
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,440
Speaker 5: and I'm like, I'm a ward daddy. He's a ward daddy.

1095
00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:10,120
Speaker 5: I'm like, I'm gonna make sure that you're not at

1096
00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:11,840
Speaker 5: the ball. So I do believe that.

1097
00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:14,600
Speaker 4: And it's not just because of those two guys, it's

1098
00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:15,880
Speaker 4: because of Matthew Stafford.

1099
00:50:15,880 --> 00:50:18,520
Speaker 5: Matthew Stafford is the elite of the elite.

1100
00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:21,040
Speaker 4: Yes, Matthew Stafford does not get enough love, and we

1101
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,160
Speaker 4: talked about it a lot this season. Thank goodness that

1102
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:25,680
Speaker 4: he's getting more credit than he ever has. But he

1103
00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:29,640
Speaker 4: the way that he can dissect defenses, where he can

1104
00:50:29,719 --> 00:50:32,440
Speaker 4: diagnose what he's looking at, where he can throw the

1105
00:50:32,520 --> 00:50:36,000
Speaker 4: ball not only accurately to his receiver where only his

1106
00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:38,480
Speaker 4: receiver can get it, but also throw it to his

1107
00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:41,920
Speaker 4: receiver in a safe space. You hear about things called

1108
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,920
Speaker 4: hospital balls across the middle, especially on those inbreakers, which

1109
00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:47,520
Speaker 4: is what killed the Vikings in Thursday Night. Like that's

1110
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:50,719
Speaker 4: kind of there, if you can call it a deficiency

1111
00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:53,640
Speaker 4: like those inbreakers over the middle, but so many times

1112
00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:56,560
Speaker 4: that puts the receiver in harm's way. You did not

1113
00:50:56,640 --> 00:50:59,040
Speaker 4: see that with Matthew Stafford because he knew exactly how

1114
00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:01,520
Speaker 4: to layer that football and get it to the precise

1115
00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:04,560
Speaker 4: location that not only allowed his receiver to catch it,

1116
00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:06,680
Speaker 4: but then to get yards after the catch on top

1117
00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:09,880
Speaker 4: of that. Pukua Akua Cooper Cup. They are both so

1118
00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:13,000
Speaker 4: incredibly good. They have great vision. They can get all

1119
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:15,320
Speaker 4: of those extra yards after catching the ball if you

1120
00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:18,160
Speaker 4: hit them in stride, and Matthew Stafford I would I

1121
00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:20,920
Speaker 4: would bank on nobody doing it better than him at

1122
00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:21,200
Speaker 4: this point.

1123
00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:23,640
Speaker 1: No, And that's what we saw on Thursday Night Football.

1124
00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:24,840
Speaker 1: It was an epic battleball.

1125
00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:26,719
Speaker 5: That's one of the best teams in the league.

1126
00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:29,239
Speaker 1: But the better quarterback one and that's what it came

1127
00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:29,520
Speaker 1: down to.

1128
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:32,520
Speaker 4: It also came down to Christian Darisaw going out for

1129
00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:34,799
Speaker 4: the Minnesota Vikings, their left tackle. He has done for

1130
00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:39,840
Speaker 4: the year I am so incredibly heartbroken from Minnesota right

1131
00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:42,720
Speaker 4: now because though they have had their share of injuries

1132
00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:45,920
Speaker 4: already up until this point, Christian Darosaw was probably the

1133
00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:49,960
Speaker 4: one guy that you just cannot like, you can't continue

1134
00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:52,920
Speaker 4: on the trajectory that you've been on without Christian Darisaw.

1135
00:51:53,120 --> 00:51:54,799
Speaker 4: You don't have like He is one of the best

1136
00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:57,480
Speaker 4: left tackles in the league. And I don't know how

1137
00:51:57,520 --> 00:52:00,000
Speaker 4: they go forward on the same path that they were befo.

1138
00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:02,880
Speaker 4: They're still a great team. Sam Donold looks incredible that

1139
00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:06,080
Speaker 4: the testament to Kevin O'Connell. The defense is still great.

1140
00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:07,920
Speaker 4: They've played some they've play played.

1141
00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:11,080
Speaker 5: They've played two very.

1142
00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:13,640
Speaker 4: Smart quarterbacks the last couple of weeks that have been

1143
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:16,440
Speaker 4: able with the help of their offensive coordinator or offensive

1144
00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:21,320
Speaker 4: play callers. They've been able to attack Brian Flores's defense

1145
00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:25,279
Speaker 4: in the only way that they are attackable, and that

1146
00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:29,879
Speaker 4: is making so many diagnoses though after the headset cuts off,

1147
00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:34,400
Speaker 4: after the snap goes making these split second decisions. Jared

1148
00:52:34,400 --> 00:52:36,160
Speaker 4: Goff is doing that better than he ever has in

1149
00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:38,680
Speaker 4: his career, and Matthew Stafford is the best at it period.

1150
00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:41,480
Speaker 4: So I still think that this defense is really really

1151
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:43,200
Speaker 4: good and it's going to continue to be good. But

1152
00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:46,560
Speaker 4: Minnesota without Christian Deisow is just not the same team.

1153
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:50,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, so we both agree that having Cooper Cup and Pukanakua.

1154
00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:54,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, because guys, just that Matthew stafferc is pro team.

1155
00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:56,960
Speaker 2: Exactly also helps that the forty nine ers have like

1156
00:52:57,120 --> 00:53:01,759
Speaker 2: been plagued with injury. Also, doors still very much open.

1157
00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:04,239
Speaker 2: They're at Seahawks, huge gain to gain some ground the

1158
00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:08,080
Speaker 2: division verse Dolphins winnable at Patriots should be a win

1159
00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:10,319
Speaker 2: for Seaquals, Like, they could easily win three of their

1160
00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:14,640
Speaker 2: next four, So that's they went off for at this

1161
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:16,919
Speaker 2: point they really could. Good news for the Rams. Okay,

1162
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:20,279
Speaker 2: let's move on. Can DeVante Adams and Hassan Reddick save

1163
00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:26,600
Speaker 2: the Jets season? I'm gonna say no. Yeah, Honestly, I

1164
00:53:26,719 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 2: haven't believed in the Jets from the moment Aaron Rodgers

1165
00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:31,879
Speaker 2: went down last season and they did nothing to replace him.

1166
00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:35,160
Speaker 2: But we saw last week in Davante adams Jets debut,

1167
00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:38,160
Speaker 2: he had three catches for thirty yards against the Steelers. Again,

1168
00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:41,239
Speaker 2: he was playing one of the legendary defensive coaches, but

1169
00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:44,200
Speaker 2: like Devontae Adams gave a postgame Walker in speech talking

1170
00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:46,279
Speaker 2: about how they don't have time to fix things, they

1171
00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:48,879
Speaker 2: have to be good now, and Rogers ended up saying that.

1172
00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:52,239
Speaker 1: Was the realest speech he's ever heard. Can we talk

1173
00:53:52,239 --> 00:53:53,000
Speaker 1: you about may.

1174
00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:58,279
Speaker 4: I appreciate that bad impression of Rogers.

1175
00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:59,520
Speaker 2: Just like the fact that he had been there less

1176
00:53:59,520 --> 00:54:02,040
Speaker 2: than a week he gave like this speech after like

1177
00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:04,440
Speaker 2: his first game with the team. Matt props to that,

1178
00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:06,600
Speaker 2: but like I.

1179
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:08,840
Speaker 4: Well, DeVante Adams talked about it because he was like,

1180
00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:10,480
Speaker 4: I was kind of hesitant to do it because I'm

1181
00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:12,719
Speaker 4: the new guy, but he said that what really set

1182
00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:15,239
Speaker 4: him off was there was a really long run catch

1183
00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:17,920
Speaker 4: and run by Brece Hall down the sideline, down the

1184
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:20,200
Speaker 4: Jets sideline, like they were right there, and he's like,

1185
00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 4: I didn't see you guys celebrating that, and like, if

1186
00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:26,200
Speaker 4: you're not celebrating something that's going right, yeah, little wins,

1187
00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:28,520
Speaker 4: like how in the world are you going to sustain

1188
00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:30,520
Speaker 4: when things are going wrong? And so that that's when

1189
00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:33,279
Speaker 4: Davante Adams kind of took it upon himself to make

1190
00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:36,319
Speaker 4: that speech and all of that, and I appreciate him

1191
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:37,960
Speaker 4: for doing so. Dvante Adams is one of the best

1192
00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:41,719
Speaker 4: receivers in the league. He was absolutely leasfull with Aaron

1193
00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:45,080
Speaker 4: Rodgers in Green Bay. Yeah, I mean those two together incredible.

1194
00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:47,319
Speaker 4: But he's right, they don't. The reason that you go

1195
00:54:47,360 --> 00:54:48,960
Speaker 4: and trade for a guy like Davante Adams is not

1196
00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:50,800
Speaker 4: only because he's one of the best receivers in the league.

1197
00:54:50,880 --> 00:54:53,720
Speaker 4: It's because he already has the familiarity with Aaron Rodgers

1198
00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:56,120
Speaker 4: and you need to hit the ground running. They didn't

1199
00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:59,399
Speaker 4: quite do that this last game. Davante only had three

1200
00:54:59,440 --> 00:55:02,040
Speaker 4: catches on He was still targeted though, Yeah he targeted.

1201
00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:04,319
Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers targeted him nine times, but he only had

1202
00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:06,279
Speaker 4: three catches for thirty yards as long was a catch

1203
00:55:06,280 --> 00:55:08,279
Speaker 4: of eleven yards. That's just not what we're used to

1204
00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:11,280
Speaker 4: seeing out of DeVante Adams. But I do think that

1205
00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:15,239
Speaker 4: that will get better quickly. I still don't see the

1206
00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:18,239
Speaker 4: overall vibes for the New York Jets going.

1207
00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:20,440
Speaker 1: Well, even getting hasan Reddick back.

1208
00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:22,600
Speaker 2: They finally reached a deal for the season, but he

1209
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:24,120
Speaker 2: hasn't played a game since January.

1210
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:26,560
Speaker 5: No, there's going to be some rusts there and he hasn't.

1211
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:27,200
Speaker 1: Played with the Jets.

1212
00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:30,239
Speaker 2: He was treated from the Eagles this offseason, so even

1213
00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:32,760
Speaker 2: if he's in game shape, it's still a new team.

1214
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:35,480
Speaker 1: You have to get up to game speed. I just

1215
00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:37,680
Speaker 1: it's going to take like a game or two.

1216
00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:37,960
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1217
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,600
Speaker 4: I mean the Jets defense is not an issue here

1218
00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:42,560
Speaker 4: because they are doing well. And I do think that

1219
00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:45,000
Speaker 4: they are going to benefit immediately from Hasan Reddick's presence

1220
00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:49,400
Speaker 4: because just automatically, even if he's not super familiar with

1221
00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:51,480
Speaker 4: the scheme, although you hope he is because that he

1222
00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:53,239
Speaker 4: had an iPad while he was trying to do this,

1223
00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:53,719
Speaker 4: you know.

1224
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:55,160
Speaker 5: Get the deal done, yea.

1225
00:55:57,160 --> 00:56:00,200
Speaker 4: I being an edge rusher, it's it's pretty easy to

1226
00:56:00,280 --> 00:56:02,839
Speaker 4: just kind of tell him in real time where he's going,

1227
00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:05,840
Speaker 4: what he's doing. And the fact that defense or offenses

1228
00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:08,200
Speaker 4: have to respect him, they have to account for him

1229
00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:10,880
Speaker 4: every single time. So just his presence out there is

1230
00:56:10,920 --> 00:56:14,759
Speaker 4: going to make a difference. But again we're talking more

1231
00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:17,200
Speaker 4: about the offense needs to score points. They only scored

1232
00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:19,919
Speaker 4: fifteen points, and I get it, it was Pittsburgh Steelers last game,

1233
00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:22,680
Speaker 4: who was one who is a top two defense in

1234
00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:27,040
Speaker 4: this league. But there needs to be more production. And

1235
00:56:27,239 --> 00:56:30,600
Speaker 4: I I'm also not going to count the Jets totally out.

1236
00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:33,800
Speaker 4: I don't know if it's DeVante Adams and asanreg that

1237
00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:35,480
Speaker 4: are going to save the day. But Aaron Rodgers, I

1238
00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:36,560
Speaker 4: am old enough to remember.

1239
00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:36,959
Speaker 1: Yep.

1240
00:56:37,719 --> 00:56:39,799
Speaker 4: It was last year with the Packers, ten years ago.

1241
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:43,600
Speaker 4: They won four of their last five games. Aaron Rodgers

1242
00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:45,160
Speaker 4: is fully capable of turning it on.

1243
00:56:45,520 --> 00:56:49,720
Speaker 5: Yeah. Is he still capable of that is the question?

1244
00:56:51,239 --> 00:56:53,879
Speaker 4: And I'm I've yet to you know, I can't really

1245
00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:56,480
Speaker 4: make that decision eight weeks into the season. You're just

1246
00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:59,640
Speaker 4: gonna have to see. But I just I think the

1247
00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:02,520
Speaker 4: overall vibes are just I'm not. I never had a

1248
00:57:02,560 --> 00:57:04,319
Speaker 4: Super Bowl expectations for the Jets. I know they had

1249
00:57:04,320 --> 00:57:04,960
Speaker 4: it for themselves.

1250
00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:05,640
Speaker 5: I never did.

1251
00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:06,319
Speaker 1: I didn't.

1252
00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:09,960
Speaker 4: I thought that that should be the expectations because of

1253
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:13,880
Speaker 4: all they gave up for Rogers, but I personally didn't

1254
00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:16,000
Speaker 4: think that they were going to meet them. No, So

1255
00:57:16,960 --> 00:57:19,240
Speaker 4: I'm happy to be wrong. Yeah, because I know Jets

1256
00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:21,480
Speaker 4: fans have been starved. I get it, guys, trust me.

1257
00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:23,920
Speaker 4: I grew up a Bears fan, Like this is I

1258
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:27,240
Speaker 4: get it. But this is what happens when you put

1259
00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:29,040
Speaker 4: all your eggs in one basket and like the entire

1260
00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:31,320
Speaker 4: fate of the franchise rest in one guy's hands.

1261
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:33,720
Speaker 1: I don't see it. I don't believe it, I don't

1262
00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:36,920
Speaker 1: feel it. Vibes are off, just brutal.

1263
00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:39,600
Speaker 2: All right, we're gonna take a quick break here, guys,

1264
00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:42,360
Speaker 2: and when we come back, who needs the win more tomorrow?

1265
00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:45,080
Speaker 2: The Cowboys or the forty nine Ers. You're listening to

1278
00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:15,840
Speaker 1: Yes, we are all right, guys.

1279
00:58:16,120 --> 00:58:19,640
Speaker 2: One of the biggest games this weekend, Sunday Night Football,

1280
00:58:20,200 --> 00:58:24,840
Speaker 2: Cowboys at forty nine Ers. Both of these teams need

1281
00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:27,480
Speaker 2: a win, but the question is who needs it more? Right,

1282
00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:30,280
Speaker 2: Cowboys are coming off of bye week. Their last game

1283
00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:33,840
Speaker 2: was that huge blowout loss to the Lions, so you

1284
00:58:33,920 --> 00:58:36,400
Speaker 2: think they would come in and be prepared.

1285
00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:39,880
Speaker 1: But we just had Dave Helman on in the first hour.

1286
00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:43,160
Speaker 2: Who broke down basically everything that is wrong with the Cowboys,

1287
00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:45,280
Speaker 2: and it's a lot.

1288
00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:45,919
Speaker 1: All right.

1289
00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:48,640
Speaker 2: They're having a hard time. Their defense hasn't been great.

1290
00:58:48,720 --> 00:58:52,480
Speaker 2: Micah Parsons is still out, offense has been pretty average.

1291
00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:56,240
Speaker 2: Deck has been average those are his words, very average,

1292
00:58:56,320 --> 00:59:00,960
Speaker 2: especially coming off an MVP caliber season last year. I mean,

1293
00:59:01,000 --> 00:59:03,920
Speaker 2: the Cowboys are twentieth in points per game, twelfth in

1294
00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:08,080
Speaker 2: yards per game. Like, it's not it's not looking great

1295
00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:09,560
Speaker 2: for them. Then you have the forty nine ers also

1296
00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:11,560
Speaker 2: coming off a tough loss to the Chiefs last weekend.

1297
00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:14,400
Speaker 2: It was brock Perty's worst game this season. He had

1298
00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:19,400
Speaker 2: three interceptions. And their injury list, you guys, just keeps growing.

1299
00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:22,600
Speaker 2: I mean they have Kittles on their questionable with foot

1300
00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:27,560
Speaker 2: now Debos on there questionable with wrist illness, McCaffrey obviously

1301
00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:30,360
Speaker 2: still out, Brendan i Yuk out with ACL and mcl

1302
00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:31,680
Speaker 2: tear like it is.

1303
00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:34,960
Speaker 1: This is going to be a tough one. The Cowboys

1304
00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:37,320
Speaker 1: have lost three straight to the forty nine ers.

1305
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:38,800
Speaker 6: I don't.

1306
00:59:39,920 --> 00:59:41,960
Speaker 2: This is a tough This is a tough because both

1307
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:43,200
Speaker 2: of these teams need to win.

1308
00:59:44,880 --> 00:59:47,160
Speaker 4: I don't think it's gonna be a good game. Seriously,

1309
00:59:47,240 --> 00:59:48,880
Speaker 4: I think the San Francisco forty nine ers are going

1310
00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:49,320
Speaker 4: to take it.

1311
00:59:49,560 --> 00:59:54,640
Speaker 2: I even with their yes, because those guys won two, three, four, five, six, seven,

1312
00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:55,640
Speaker 2: eight main guys.

1313
00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:59,080
Speaker 4: None of those guys are named Jordan Mason. And like

1314
00:59:59,200 --> 01:00:01,080
Speaker 4: I get, like Christian mc jaffrey is the best, one

1315
01:00:01,080 --> 01:00:02,440
Speaker 4: of the best running backs in football, if not the

1316
01:00:02,480 --> 01:00:04,080
Speaker 4: best running back in football, and they've been without them

1317
01:00:04,080 --> 01:00:07,120
Speaker 4: all season. And Kyle Shanahan, I've talked about this a lot.

1318
01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:09,640
Speaker 4: We talk a lot about system quarterbacks, of which brock

1319
01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:13,680
Speaker 4: Party is not one, But I think in Kyle shanahan system,

1320
01:00:13,680 --> 01:00:16,000
Speaker 4: we need to talk about system running backs because they

1321
01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:18,720
Speaker 4: can plug and play pretty much anybody in that scheme.

1322
01:00:19,280 --> 01:00:21,960
Speaker 4: And the way that they use multiple backsets, the way

1323
01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:25,080
Speaker 4: that they use their fullbacks make fullbacks great again. Yes, Uh,

1324
01:00:26,200 --> 01:00:30,200
Speaker 4: it just overwhelms defenses, it really does.

1325
01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:30,800
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1326
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:32,720
Speaker 5: So, and you're going.

1327
01:00:32,520 --> 01:00:37,440
Speaker 4: Against a defense in Dallas that is still without Michael

1328
01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:41,280
Speaker 4: Parsons big Blake deal you still have and they have

1329
01:00:41,440 --> 01:00:44,640
Speaker 4: let up just an exorbitant amount of rushing yards this year.

1330
01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:45,440
Speaker 5: It is embarrassing.

1331
01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:47,760
Speaker 1: They did you say their last like the last game

1332
01:00:47,800 --> 01:00:48,680
Speaker 1: they did was insane.

1333
01:00:49,080 --> 01:00:53,080
Speaker 4: No, that was I talked about there against the Baltimore Ravens. Okay,

1334
01:00:53,280 --> 01:00:55,360
Speaker 4: just absolutely insane. Ever, I had to believe it was

1335
01:00:55,360 --> 01:00:57,560
Speaker 4: like two hundred and thirty and seventy yards.

1336
01:00:57,600 --> 01:01:00,200
Speaker 5: On the ground. But they are letting out the twenty eighth.

1337
01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:06,120
Speaker 4: Most yards on the ground, yeah, or like I guess

1338
01:01:06,120 --> 01:01:09,080
Speaker 4: not the twentieth most, the fourth most yards on the

1339
01:01:09,080 --> 01:01:12,160
Speaker 4: ground of any team this year. They have not been

1340
01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:13,600
Speaker 4: able to stop the run at all, and that is

1341
01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:16,760
Speaker 4: something that Kyle Shanahan does the best of anybody, except

1342
01:01:16,800 --> 01:01:19,520
Speaker 4: maybe the Baltimore Ravens, which again the Dallas Cowboys did

1343
01:01:19,520 --> 01:01:22,280
Speaker 4: not do well against. Yea, So not only does running

1344
01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:24,160
Speaker 4: the football put the defense on their heels, but like

1345
01:01:24,200 --> 01:01:27,600
Speaker 4: it controls the clock, you have complete kind of control

1346
01:01:27,640 --> 01:01:30,280
Speaker 4: over the game. And then again, this is in San Francisco,

1347
01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:33,640
Speaker 4: Santa Clara. This is on the West Coast, and the

1348
01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:36,240
Speaker 4: Niners quite frankly, have been the Dallas Cowboys. We heard

1349
01:01:36,280 --> 01:01:38,680
Speaker 4: Dave say it their bookeyman. It really has the last

1350
01:01:38,680 --> 01:01:41,480
Speaker 4: three straight against them and not only have lost, like

1351
01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:45,439
Speaker 4: have lost in very demoralizing fashion. So like, I just too,

1352
01:01:45,880 --> 01:01:48,520
Speaker 4: I don't think that the Cowboys are equipped for this.

1353
01:01:48,560 --> 01:01:50,120
Speaker 4: I just don't think it's going to be a game.

1354
01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:51,960
Speaker 4: I think San Francisco is going to take it as

1355
01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:54,560
Speaker 4: much as Dallas needs to win. I don't see it

1356
01:01:54,600 --> 01:01:57,320
Speaker 4: happening for them. So, I like we were talking about

1357
01:01:57,360 --> 01:01:59,280
Speaker 4: this off air, but like, the best game this week

1358
01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:01,040
Speaker 4: to me is probab probably Bill Seahawks.

1359
01:02:01,160 --> 01:02:03,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that's going to be really interesting.

1360
01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:06,240
Speaker 1: Going to break all those down at the at the

1361
01:02:06,320 --> 01:02:06,960
Speaker 1: end of the show.

1362
01:02:06,760 --> 01:02:08,320
Speaker 4: At the end of the show. But yeah, and then

1363
01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:11,240
Speaker 4: you've also obviously I'm wearing for Halloween. I am ditka,

1364
01:02:12,160 --> 01:02:13,920
Speaker 4: I kind of did a half assed dick. It's okay,

1365
01:02:13,960 --> 01:02:18,680
Speaker 4: but he got there. You've got Bears Commanders this week too,

1366
01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:19,520
Speaker 4: that got flexed.

1367
01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:23,320
Speaker 2: If yeah, if Jade Daniels plays, it's looking it's leaning

1368
01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:26,720
Speaker 2: and looking like he's going to But again they're still

1369
01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:27,440
Speaker 2: saying game time.

1370
01:02:27,640 --> 01:02:30,120
Speaker 4: They're like they put him through walk through, and they're

1371
01:02:30,120 --> 01:02:32,320
Speaker 4: putting him through walk through today and just to see

1372
01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:33,040
Speaker 4: how he does.

1373
01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:34,560
Speaker 5: And but I do think.

1374
01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:36,960
Speaker 4: That like he's trying to play, Yeah, he's trying to

1375
01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:38,640
Speaker 4: get back and play with from that ribbon, from those

1376
01:02:38,680 --> 01:02:41,600
Speaker 4: rib injuries. Yeah, I think that's going to be a

1377
01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:44,640
Speaker 4: really cool duel.

1378
01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:47,840
Speaker 1: Get second overall draft picks.

1379
01:02:47,920 --> 01:02:51,040
Speaker 4: I like playing a game a quarterback matchup because they

1380
01:02:51,040 --> 01:02:53,400
Speaker 4: don't match up with each other, they don't go against

1381
01:02:53,440 --> 01:02:55,840
Speaker 4: each other. Yeah, I do think that the Bears, Like,

1382
01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:58,360
Speaker 4: I feel like a lot of people aren't really giving

1383
01:02:58,360 --> 01:03:00,280
Speaker 4: the Bears a chance in this game if Jadan and

1384
01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:04,480
Speaker 4: Daniels plays, and I'm like, listen, I'm the first one

1385
01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:06,959
Speaker 4: to say, I'm very impressed with Jade and Daniels and

1386
01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:09,400
Speaker 4: what he's done this season and the way that he's

1387
01:03:09,440 --> 01:03:11,960
Speaker 4: working with Cliff Kingsbury, their offensive coordinator, and how he's

1388
01:03:11,960 --> 01:03:15,760
Speaker 4: made things easy on Jayden and Scary Terry is in

1389
01:03:15,960 --> 01:03:19,680
Speaker 4: full form. But this Bear's defense is a top five unit.

1390
01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:20,040
Speaker 8: Yep.

1391
01:03:20,160 --> 01:03:21,960
Speaker 4: They have the most Like, they're tied for the third

1392
01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:24,760
Speaker 4: most takeaways, and they had their bye week last week. Like,

1393
01:03:25,200 --> 01:03:28,160
Speaker 4: this is a really formidable defense that Jayden Daniels is

1394
01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:31,520
Speaker 4: going to have to contend with if he indeed does play.

1395
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:34,680
Speaker 4: And Caleb Williams is coming off the best game of

1396
01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:35,400
Speaker 4: his pro career.

1397
01:03:35,560 --> 01:03:35,880
Speaker 5: Huh.

1398
01:03:36,160 --> 01:03:38,160
Speaker 4: I get that the Bears have not played anybody who

1399
01:03:38,320 --> 01:03:40,200
Speaker 4: has had more than one win at the time they

1400
01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:42,880
Speaker 4: played them. But he has a lot of confidence in

1401
01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:45,480
Speaker 4: this offense. They're coming off of bye week. I just

1402
01:03:46,400 --> 01:03:48,200
Speaker 4: I have a lot of faith in the Chicago Bears,

1403
01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:52,040
Speaker 4: which is really weird to say, but I do. And

1404
01:03:52,040 --> 01:03:53,200
Speaker 4: I think that they're going to go in there and

1405
01:03:53,240 --> 01:03:54,960
Speaker 4: they're going to be really fired up, and I think

1406
01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:55,680
Speaker 4: that they're going to win.

1407
01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:57,600
Speaker 2: Stick around for a game picks. You might have an

1408
01:03:57,640 --> 01:03:59,840
Speaker 2: idea of where Carmen's laning, but now let's check it

01:07:03,120 --> 01:07:05,800
Speaker 2: Oh my god, woman, please tell us what was that

1469
01:07:06,120 --> 01:07:11,080
Speaker 2: iconic moment like live at Dodgers Stadium after Freddy hit

1470
01:07:11,120 --> 01:07:14,840
Speaker 2: that walk off grand slam Well and Alex It's.

1471
01:07:14,720 --> 01:07:18,400
Speaker 8: So weird because you know, as media members and Carbon

1472
01:07:18,440 --> 01:07:21,320
Speaker 8: two like as media members, there's a certain time when

1473
01:07:21,360 --> 01:07:24,400
Speaker 8: you have to get down the clubhouse to get in

1474
01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:27,120
Speaker 8: line to get into the clubhouse. Yeah, and during the

1475
01:07:27,160 --> 01:07:30,600
Speaker 8: World Series it's amplified because of all the media I hear.

1476
01:07:31,120 --> 01:07:33,640
Speaker 8: So when the game went to extra innings, I was like, no,

1477
01:07:33,800 --> 01:07:35,959
Speaker 8: And during games, I don't sit in the press box.

1478
01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:38,200
Speaker 8: I'm out in the blea shirts. I'm walking lows level.

1479
01:07:38,520 --> 01:07:41,960
Speaker 8: I love the ambiyond and so I stuck up around,

1480
01:07:42,120 --> 01:07:45,120
Speaker 8: you know, as most people did, to catch the extra innings,

1481
01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:47,160
Speaker 8: and it was going, you know, bottom of the tenth.

1482
01:07:47,160 --> 01:07:48,640
Speaker 8: I was like, all right, I guess I got started

1483
01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:51,160
Speaker 8: maybe my way down, So why I was on the escalator.

1484
01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:54,160
Speaker 8: I missed that they walked Mookie and I'm like, okay.

1485
01:07:54,200 --> 01:07:57,480
Speaker 8: So I get into the lows level and thankfully Press

1486
01:07:57,520 --> 01:08:00,439
Speaker 8: badge walk down the stairs and I'm standing behind you fans,

1487
01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:02,080
Speaker 8: and I'm hearing guys say next to me, I'm so

1488
01:08:02,160 --> 01:08:03,120
Speaker 8: nervous I could throw up.

1489
01:08:03,120 --> 01:08:03,680
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah.

1490
01:08:04,440 --> 01:08:09,520
Speaker 8: Freddy stepped up and just ripped it. And I tell you,

1491
01:08:10,000 --> 01:08:13,840
Speaker 8: there was a holy blief moment from everyone around me, like,

1492
01:08:13,960 --> 01:08:16,960
Speaker 8: oh my god, that did not just happen. Yeah, And

1493
01:08:17,439 --> 01:08:20,720
Speaker 8: it was like the hairs raising on my arm and

1494
01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:24,040
Speaker 8: I'm talking about it. It was a right where were

1495
01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:24,719
Speaker 8: you moments?

1496
01:08:25,040 --> 01:08:26,720
Speaker 2: I mean, you talked to him last night too. Write

1497
01:08:26,760 --> 01:08:29,000
Speaker 2: you talked to Freddy after that happened. What did he

1498
01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:30,320
Speaker 2: say about that magical moment?

1499
01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:32,800
Speaker 8: Well, and I told I said to him, you know,

1500
01:08:32,880 --> 01:08:35,240
Speaker 8: because he hadn't even mentioned his ankle at this point

1501
01:08:35,240 --> 01:08:38,120
Speaker 8: in the press conference. Actually, he was just talking about

1502
01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:39,920
Speaker 8: what he was feeling as he was rounding the basin

1503
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:42,960
Speaker 8: and I said, Freddy, first of all, your ankle, how

1504
01:08:43,000 --> 01:08:44,680
Speaker 8: have you been feeling. What's the last week been like

1505
01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:46,439
Speaker 8: for you? And what was your mindset when you stepped

1506
01:08:46,760 --> 01:08:49,840
Speaker 8: to the plate. And he told me he wanted, you know,

1507
01:08:49,960 --> 01:08:51,559
Speaker 8: he wanted to be on it, and he was. He

1508
01:08:51,560 --> 01:08:54,479
Speaker 8: gave a smile, but he talked about just kind of

1509
01:08:54,560 --> 01:08:59,160
Speaker 8: how tedious that rehabbens for him. He's at the ballpark

1510
01:08:59,200 --> 01:09:03,479
Speaker 8: at ten thirds on these five o'clock starts, and you know,

1511
01:09:03,600 --> 01:09:06,160
Speaker 8: he is like, the first time I had run since

1512
01:09:06,320 --> 01:09:09,280
Speaker 8: NLCS was when I ran out during warm up or

1513
01:09:09,320 --> 01:09:14,880
Speaker 8: the intros my name was called. That is just kind

1514
01:09:14,880 --> 01:09:17,639
Speaker 8: of like, you know, I mean, you think about everything

1515
01:09:17,720 --> 01:09:21,200
Speaker 8: he's been navigating through, from his son Max, you you know,

1516
01:09:21,439 --> 01:09:24,439
Speaker 8: just the injury at this point in the season, this

1517
01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:27,400
Speaker 8: man deserved that moment. If Dave Roberts says something like

1518
01:09:27,720 --> 01:09:29,840
Speaker 8: this sport honors you when you play the game the

1519
01:09:29,920 --> 01:09:32,120
Speaker 8: right way, and Freddy was honored.

1520
01:09:32,240 --> 01:09:36,439
Speaker 4: I love that from robers It's so funny too, because

1521
01:09:36,439 --> 01:09:38,840
Speaker 4: I feel like, what's a way to get around having

1522
01:09:38,880 --> 01:09:41,320
Speaker 4: to run around the bases? Oh, just pop a homer

1523
01:09:41,880 --> 01:09:45,360
Speaker 4: two times? Yeah, like first pitch, just hit it into

1524
01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:46,920
Speaker 4: the stands that way, you don't actually have to run

1525
01:09:46,920 --> 01:09:49,640
Speaker 4: the bases. I mean you do, but obviously you can

1526
01:09:49,680 --> 01:09:50,639
Speaker 4: take him at a jog.

1527
01:09:51,560 --> 01:09:53,800
Speaker 8: Right, And you had that triple early on and it

1528
01:09:53,880 --> 01:09:57,960
Speaker 8: was like what Freddy hot wheels? I think everyone was

1529
01:09:58,080 --> 01:10:01,120
Speaker 8: holding their breast during that moment, like, yeah.

1530
01:10:00,760 --> 01:10:01,639
Speaker 5: But can he make it?

1531
01:10:03,680 --> 01:10:05,760
Speaker 4: I think it's so interesting too, Like you said you

1532
01:10:05,800 --> 01:10:09,240
Speaker 4: missed them walking Mookie. That was obviously a very controversial decision.

1533
01:10:09,280 --> 01:10:11,439
Speaker 4: Did you get to talk to Mooki at all about

1534
01:10:11,479 --> 01:10:13,800
Speaker 4: that decision and how that made him feel? Because I

1535
01:10:13,800 --> 01:10:16,559
Speaker 4: feel like, you know, it's a confidence boost for Mooki,

1536
01:10:16,640 --> 01:10:18,799
Speaker 4: but is it a and is it a slight almost

1537
01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:20,960
Speaker 4: at Freddy like we'd rather take you obviously?

1538
01:10:21,400 --> 01:10:23,920
Speaker 5: Did Freddie use that? Did Mooki use that? Like?

1539
01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:27,879
Speaker 4: Like what was the vibe after that decision in the Dodgers' clubhouse?

1540
01:10:28,400 --> 01:10:31,200
Speaker 8: Oh? So that's so interesting. And I was in the

1541
01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:33,840
Speaker 8: press conference room and Dave Roberts was asked about that.

1542
01:10:33,920 --> 01:10:35,599
Speaker 8: He was like, how do you think do you think

1543
01:10:35,600 --> 01:10:38,880
Speaker 8: Freddie took that personally? And Freddie's like, yeah, absolutely I do.

1544
01:10:39,040 --> 01:10:42,320
Speaker 8: Because these guys have pride, they are Yeah, that's the best.

1545
01:10:42,320 --> 01:10:45,479
Speaker 8: And yeah, maybe Freddie Freeman's post season success hasn't been

1546
01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:47,639
Speaker 8: their nextility to tackle of years.

1547
01:10:47,640 --> 01:10:48,200
Speaker 11: Sorry, we got it.

1548
01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:51,680
Speaker 8: I think a live Mari Mariaki band. Yeah, Fie, well

1549
01:10:51,720 --> 01:10:56,840
Speaker 8: here it's chaos on all levels. But Dave said that,

1550
01:10:57,280 --> 01:11:00,639
Speaker 8: you know, I think Freddie took that personally, and guess what,

1551
01:11:00,720 --> 01:11:02,519
Speaker 8: we're grateful he did. Yeah.

1552
01:11:02,680 --> 01:11:06,240
Speaker 2: Oh my, Nikki, you've covered the Dodgers for years now, right,

1553
01:11:06,800 --> 01:11:10,200
Speaker 2: what's different about this team than in years past.

1554
01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:14,439
Speaker 8: It's so interesting, Alex because obviously there was the COVID

1555
01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:17,479
Speaker 8: World Series or the World Series one during the pandemic,

1556
01:11:17,520 --> 01:11:20,120
Speaker 8: but in the past couple of postseasons with their early

1557
01:11:20,200 --> 01:11:25,040
Speaker 8: exits that have been viewed as disappointments. You felt the

1558
01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:29,200
Speaker 8: tension every time the offense was pressing, right, and just

1559
01:11:29,320 --> 01:11:33,000
Speaker 8: like the pressure to deliver. And I think when you

1560
01:11:33,040 --> 01:11:36,280
Speaker 8: look at the way this team's carrying themselves with a

1561
01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:39,439
Speaker 8: confidence that we haven't seen before, it also comes in

1562
01:11:39,720 --> 01:11:44,160
Speaker 8: being relaxed and like T. K Hernandez so eloquently said,

1563
01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:45,479
Speaker 8: we don't give a belief.

1564
01:11:46,120 --> 01:11:46,519
Speaker 1: I love that.

1565
01:11:46,840 --> 01:11:50,599
Speaker 8: And it also it all began in the five days

1566
01:11:50,600 --> 01:11:55,320
Speaker 8: off they had before the NLDS instead of you know,

1567
01:11:55,640 --> 01:11:58,799
Speaker 8: kind of being so serious in that time. These guys

1568
01:11:58,840 --> 01:12:02,439
Speaker 8: treated it as like eight hours of just being grows together.

1569
01:12:02,880 --> 01:12:05,479
Speaker 8: They had games in the clubhouses, they played music, they

1570
01:12:05,479 --> 01:12:08,639
Speaker 8: had nice catered food, and it really sets the tone

1571
01:12:08,640 --> 01:12:11,160
Speaker 8: of like, we're rewarding you for all the work you

1572
01:12:11,280 --> 01:12:14,280
Speaker 8: did this regular season. Now let's let the tone come

1573
01:12:14,320 --> 01:12:16,920
Speaker 8: together as a family and do some damage here in

1574
01:12:16,960 --> 01:12:17,600
Speaker 8: the postseason.

1575
01:12:17,960 --> 01:12:21,000
Speaker 4: That's That's the one thing I wonder about too, because

1576
01:12:21,360 --> 01:12:23,639
Speaker 4: you know, the World Series isn't just one game, it's

1577
01:12:23,720 --> 01:12:26,240
Speaker 4: it's it's probably this series is probably going to go to.

1578
01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:27,120
Speaker 5: Seven nine days.

1579
01:12:28,600 --> 01:12:31,200
Speaker 4: The clubhouse then after something like that, that just gets

1580
01:12:31,240 --> 01:12:34,559
Speaker 4: you on such a huge high, and it's it's it's history.

1581
01:12:34,640 --> 01:12:37,640
Speaker 4: It's all of that as a vibe, Like then by

1582
01:12:37,680 --> 01:12:40,719
Speaker 4: the players in the clubhouse, are they happy but still

1583
01:12:40,800 --> 01:12:41,720
Speaker 4: kind of focused?

1584
01:12:41,920 --> 01:12:44,040
Speaker 5: Are they like? What is what? What are like? What

1585
01:12:44,080 --> 01:12:46,000
Speaker 5: does it look like in that clubhouse when you walk in.

1586
01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:49,679
Speaker 8: I think the biggest takeaway for me was how happy

1587
01:12:49,840 --> 01:12:54,760
Speaker 8: everyone was ready, which it really speaks a lot to Yeah,

1588
01:12:54,880 --> 01:12:57,639
Speaker 8: he's such a front facing guy for this team, right,

1589
01:12:57,760 --> 01:13:02,200
Speaker 8: but when you hear just how joyful his teammates were

1590
01:13:02,280 --> 01:13:05,040
Speaker 8: for him to have that moment. It both got the

1591
01:13:05,120 --> 01:13:07,760
Speaker 8: curtain a little bit about just how trying these past

1592
01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:10,200
Speaker 8: couple of months have been, you know, from off the

1593
01:13:10,280 --> 01:13:13,840
Speaker 8: field to you know, what that Tony said as a

1594
01:13:13,920 --> 01:13:16,360
Speaker 8: leader and how much they respect him. So that really

1595
01:13:16,360 --> 01:13:19,080
Speaker 8: stood out to me, and I think, what you when

1596
01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:21,400
Speaker 8: you look at the way this postseason has spanned out

1597
01:13:21,760 --> 01:13:24,479
Speaker 8: and who has stepped up in what moments, whether it's

1598
01:13:24,560 --> 01:13:27,280
Speaker 8: you know, Key k Hernandez having a home run, whether

1599
01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:31,559
Speaker 8: it's Jack Claherty's you know, seven shutout innings. Dave Roberts

1600
01:13:31,560 --> 01:13:33,880
Speaker 8: said this to the guys at the beginning of spring training.

1601
01:13:34,360 --> 01:13:37,519
Speaker 8: We need a clubhouse full of men, whether you're in

1602
01:13:37,600 --> 01:13:39,920
Speaker 8: the NFL the outfield, who are going to make the

1603
01:13:39,920 --> 01:13:42,920
Speaker 8: play when the pressure is the highest, when the moment

1604
01:13:43,040 --> 01:13:44,920
Speaker 8: is on the line, if we're going to win a

1605
01:13:44,920 --> 01:13:47,559
Speaker 8: World Series. And Dave told me that last night. He's like,

1606
01:13:48,120 --> 01:13:50,960
Speaker 8: what we have is those guys following through on what

1607
01:13:51,040 --> 01:13:53,080
Speaker 8: they agreed to. Backing at Camel.

1608
01:13:52,800 --> 01:13:57,160
Speaker 2: Background Chills, Nikki Chill, I'm so I'm so excited for

Speaker 2: you to be there. There is nothing quite like a

1610
01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:02,160
Speaker 2: World Series, especially at Dodger Stadium.

1611
01:14:02,400 --> 01:14:05,760
Speaker 1: Have so much fun past time covering Game two tonight.

1612

01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:12,479
Speaker 6: guys matched broke even three and two.

1634
01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:15,559
Speaker 5: Both No one went high, No one low.

1635
01:15:15,880 --> 01:15:25,200
Speaker 4: My poor Buccaneers, Mike Evans and Chris Godway.

1636
01:15:23,000 --> 01:15:25,480
Speaker 5: In the same game. It's just horrible.

1637
01:15:25,600 --> 01:15:27,519
Speaker 6: Rest in peace to my mom's fancy team with Chris

1638
01:15:27,520 --> 01:15:29,879
Speaker 6: Godwin by the way, Yeah, I'm so bad.

1639
01:15:29,720 --> 01:15:32,360
Speaker 5: That just his old side.

1640
01:15:34,840 --> 01:15:35,400
Speaker 1: Heartbreaking.

1641
01:15:35,520 --> 01:15:37,160
Speaker 5: It is is he's such a great guy.

1642
01:15:37,280 --> 01:15:40,599
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's it's it's hard, dude, speaking of a team

1643
01:15:40,640 --> 01:15:43,120
Speaker 6: that may be going through heartbreak all season long. By

1644
01:15:43,120 --> 01:15:45,040
Speaker 6: the end of it, we got the Philadelphia Eagles as

1645
01:15:45,040 --> 01:15:50,880
Speaker 6: our number and they are taking on I'm weird, the

1646
01:15:50,920 --> 01:15:54,840
Speaker 6: Cincinnati Bengals. The Bengals are home and they are two

1647
01:15:54,880 --> 01:15:58,800
Speaker 6: and a half point favorites. Yeah, our fearless leader, Alex,

1648
01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:01,240
Speaker 6: are you taking.

1649
01:16:01,320 --> 01:16:03,600
Speaker 2: I mean both these teams are coming off back to

1650
01:16:03,640 --> 01:16:08,680
Speaker 2: back wins, both against the Browns and the Giants. I'm

1651
01:16:08,680 --> 01:16:12,080
Speaker 2: gonna go with joe Burrow at home after starting oh

1652
01:16:12,200 --> 01:16:13,439
Speaker 2: to three, they've won three.

1653
01:16:13,240 --> 01:16:17,080
Speaker 1: Of their last four. Joey B. Bring home this win,

1654
01:16:17,560 --> 01:16:18,360
Speaker 1: Bring home this win.

1655
01:16:18,560 --> 01:16:20,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, I have. I have the Bengals too.

1656
01:16:20,240 --> 01:16:23,000
Speaker 4: They got some guys back on defense, and I think

1657
01:16:23,080 --> 01:16:25,080
Speaker 4: that this is rounding into the team that we were

1658
01:16:25,160 --> 01:16:27,800
Speaker 4: kind of expecting to see. They just took the slowest

1659
01:16:27,800 --> 01:16:31,040
Speaker 4: possible start. It really did, even slower than years past.

1660
01:16:31,160 --> 01:16:32,120
Speaker 5: But Joey B.

1661
01:16:32,439 --> 01:16:35,639
Speaker 6: Yep, well, we have the legend of Joey b with us,

1662
01:16:35,960 --> 01:16:40,400
Speaker 6: But are we gonna take the legend of Kirk swagsurfing

1663
01:16:40,520 --> 01:16:45,840
Speaker 6: Cousins with the Falcons taking on the Bucks on the road?

1664
01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:49,559
Speaker 6: Falcons are two and a half point favorites. Bucks are home, Carmen,

1665
01:16:49,880 --> 01:16:50,840
Speaker 6: what are we going here?

1666
01:16:51,120 --> 01:16:52,920
Speaker 4: It hurts so bad because the Bucks are wearing their

1667
01:16:52,920 --> 01:16:56,520
Speaker 4: creamsicles and I absolutely adore their creamsicles.

1668
01:16:56,600 --> 01:16:59,559
Speaker 5: Also, I have not been sent to anything yet. Guys like,

1669
01:16:59,600 --> 01:17:03,400
Speaker 5: what the hell? But I have to go with the Falcons.

1670
01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:07,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, I just again with Chris and with with Mike Down.

1671
01:17:07,400 --> 01:17:08,840
Speaker 4: I just I do have a lot of faith in

1672
01:17:08,840 --> 01:17:11,439
Speaker 4: their run game because it's gotten so much better and

1673
01:17:11,479 --> 01:17:12,760
Speaker 4: that defense is looking good.

1674
01:17:12,840 --> 01:17:14,000
Speaker 5: They are really good against the run.

1675
01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:16,080
Speaker 4: I think they can pressure Kirk Cousins, but he's been

1676
01:17:16,080 --> 01:17:17,760
Speaker 4: actually pretty good in the face of pressure this year.

1677
01:17:17,800 --> 01:17:19,760
Speaker 5: So I'm gonna go with the Falcons. But please prove

1678
01:17:19,800 --> 01:17:20,559
Speaker 5: me wrong. Bucks.

1679
01:17:20,800 --> 01:17:24,000
Speaker 1: So you're okay losing that one? I that would be

1680
01:17:24,000 --> 01:17:25,080
Speaker 1: a happy if you got wrong.

1681
01:17:25,240 --> 01:17:26,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly.

1682
01:17:26,400 --> 01:17:28,200
Speaker 1: I'm also taking the Falcons here.

1683
01:17:28,280 --> 01:17:31,439
Speaker 2: It's crazy because they've already had a crazy matchup that

1684
01:17:31,800 --> 01:17:35,439
Speaker 2: OT win that the Falcons took. I think they pull

1685
01:17:35,479 --> 01:17:38,559
Speaker 2: it off again, mainly because the Bucks, as you mentioned, lost,

1686
01:17:38,560 --> 01:17:41,120
Speaker 2: are two star receivers. God went out for the seasons.

1687
01:17:41,120 --> 01:17:43,360
Speaker 2: Evan's up for a few weeks. It's just that's that's

1688
01:17:43,560 --> 01:17:44,240
Speaker 2: that's a big blow.

1689
01:17:44,400 --> 01:17:46,000
Speaker 1: It's a big blow, all right.

1690
01:17:46,000 --> 01:17:48,760
Speaker 6: Well, speaking of a team that is without at least

1691
01:17:48,840 --> 01:17:51,920
Speaker 6: a star receiver for the week, we have the Buffalo Bills,

1692
01:17:51,960 --> 01:17:54,200
Speaker 6: not them taking on Seattle Seahawks.

1693
01:17:54,240 --> 01:17:55,160
Speaker 5: That's the one with the star.

1694
01:17:55,840 --> 01:17:59,120
Speaker 6: Bills on the road are minus three points against my

1695
01:17:59,160 --> 01:18:03,519
Speaker 6: Seattle Seahawks, Alex so many I don't only.

1696
01:18:03,360 --> 01:18:04,559
Speaker 5: Have two would be nice.

1697
01:18:04,680 --> 01:18:06,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm taking the Bills here.

1698
01:18:06,800 --> 01:18:09,519
Speaker 2: Josh Allen and the Bills Baby Amy Mary Cooper had

1699
01:18:09,520 --> 01:18:12,360
Speaker 2: a good first game four catches and a touchdown. But

1700
01:18:12,520 --> 01:18:15,240
Speaker 2: now he's only going to be more comfortable, and he

1701
01:18:15,320 --> 01:18:17,280
Speaker 2: said this week he's ready to take on more. I

1702
01:18:17,280 --> 01:18:18,840
Speaker 2: think he goes off. I'm taking the Bills.

1703
01:18:18,920 --> 01:18:20,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm taking the Bills too, because it looks like

1704
01:18:20,640 --> 01:18:22,760
Speaker 4: James Cook is going to be back. And then you

1705
01:18:22,920 --> 01:18:26,360
Speaker 4: have just Josh Allen Amari Cooper. That was already a

1706
01:18:26,360 --> 01:18:29,000
Speaker 4: really good connection between the two of them. And you

1707
01:18:29,160 --> 01:18:32,840
Speaker 4: mentioned that the injuries that Seattle is dealing with even

1708
01:18:32,880 --> 01:18:35,360
Speaker 4: though at at home, I'm still I'm still taking the Bills,

1709
01:18:35,479 --> 01:18:36,679
Speaker 4: but I do think that's going to be the best

1710
01:18:36,680 --> 01:18:37,320
Speaker 4: game of the week.

1711
01:18:37,840 --> 01:18:41,160
Speaker 6: Well, speaking of games that also may could maybe the

1712
01:18:41,160 --> 01:18:45,720
Speaker 6: best of the week and quarterback connections, we have Carmen's

1713
01:18:46,439 --> 01:18:49,760
Speaker 6: Caleb william bearsum breaks.

1714
01:18:49,520 --> 01:18:53,320
Speaker 5: On the road against Jayden.

1715
01:18:53,080 --> 01:18:56,400
Speaker 1: Janiels team he grew up in Chicago, did I did? I?

1716
01:18:56,880 --> 01:19:00,880
Speaker 4: Honestly, I think the Bears kind of have this either way.

1717
01:19:01,000 --> 01:19:03,080
Speaker 4: I really think that Jane I would be surprised if

1718
01:19:03,120 --> 01:19:05,240
Speaker 4: Jane Daniels doesn't end up playing because he's trying so

1719
01:19:05,280 --> 01:19:07,120
Speaker 4: hard to get in there. I do think it's gonna

1720
01:19:07,120 --> 01:19:08,880
Speaker 4: be a really fun duel. But I am taking the

1721
01:19:08,960 --> 01:19:12,160
Speaker 4: Chicago Bears because of that defense more than anything else,

1722
01:19:12,560 --> 01:19:15,400
Speaker 4: and the fact that Caleb Williams has now each offensive

1723
01:19:15,400 --> 01:19:17,759
Speaker 4: weapon in Chicago has had their game, they've gone off.

1724
01:19:18,479 --> 01:19:20,519
Speaker 4: He has full command of this offense coming off the

1725
01:19:20,520 --> 01:19:23,800
Speaker 4: buy Bears Bears.

1726
01:19:23,960 --> 01:19:28,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm also taking Caleb Williams and the Bears. Jaydeen

1727
01:19:28,560 --> 01:19:31,640
Speaker 2: Daniels has been stealing the spotlight all season, and I

1728
01:19:31,640 --> 01:19:33,879
Speaker 2: feel like Caleb goes out there and makes a statement

1729
01:19:34,120 --> 01:19:38,479
Speaker 2: because he's finally playing with everything. We kind of expected

1730
01:19:38,560 --> 01:19:41,120
Speaker 2: him to be and reminding everyone why he.

1731
01:19:41,120 --> 01:19:44,080
Speaker 1: Is the first overall bear six games.

1732
01:19:44,240 --> 01:19:45,479
Speaker 5: Yeah, that is awesome.

1733
01:19:45,840 --> 01:19:51,839
Speaker 6: Yeah, and we have number five, the fabled Cowboys at Niners.

1734
01:19:51,920 --> 01:19:55,400
Speaker 6: Niners four point favorite, Alex take it away.

1735
01:19:56,160 --> 01:19:59,040
Speaker 1: Even with all the injuries. I just don't believe in

1736
01:19:59,080 --> 01:19:59,720
Speaker 1: the Cowboys.

1737
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:02,679
Speaker 2: Trust Kyle Shanahan, who has beaten the Cowboys the last

1738
01:20:02,680 --> 01:20:03,360
Speaker 2: three meetings.

1739
01:20:03,479 --> 01:20:04,720
Speaker 1: I'm taking the forty nine Ers.

1740
01:20:04,960 --> 01:20:07,240
Speaker 4: Cowboys can't stop the run, and that's what the Niners

1741
01:20:07,280 --> 01:20:08,800
Speaker 4: do the best. So I'm gonna go Niners. If we

1742
01:20:08,840 --> 01:20:10,880
Speaker 4: agreed on all of them, change my pick, I think

1743
01:20:10,920 --> 01:20:12,200
Speaker 4: we did change my pick to the Bucks.

1744
01:20:12,240 --> 01:20:14,960
Speaker 1: All right, I'm changing there it is.

1745
01:20:15,080 --> 01:20:17,720
Speaker 2: Thank you so much for spending your Saturday afternoon with us.

1746
01:20:17,800 --> 01:20:19,679
Speaker 2: We'll see you next week, same time, same place,
