00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:09,879
Speaker 1: This is straight Fire with Jason McIntyre.

Speaker 2: What is up straight Fire prying? It's me Jason McIntire,

00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:21,479
Speaker 2: Straight Fire for Wednesday, September third. I don't know if

4
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:23,720
Speaker 2: you guys can detect it. I know my family certainly can.

5
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 2: But I am just so excited and constantly being positive

6
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:32,200
Speaker 2: because football's back, and just the excitement in the air.

7
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,880
Speaker 2: The NFL season opener Eagles Cowboys. Hope you already bet

00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 2: the Eagles because the line's on the run. That's Thursday.

Speaker 2: Then we get Chiefs Chargers Friday from Brazil. Saturday not

00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 2: a great college football slate, I mean, certainly nothing compared

00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,959
Speaker 2: to last weekend, but you do have Michigan Oklahoma, which

12
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,279

Speaker 2: the lot. It doesn't NFL Sunday Like, I cannot wait.

20
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,320
Speaker 2: I meant, and I will say I'm a little jacked

21
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 2: over Jack because Survivor leagues. I'm in a the volume

22
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 2: does this wins pool where you pick a team, you

23
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 2: draft a team, it's like a snake draft, and then

24
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,040
Speaker 2: whoever has the most wins at the end of the

25
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 2: season wins. Two years ago I won it, or last

26
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:40,760
Speaker 2: year I did not win it. But it's like I'm

27
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 2: doing that weekly pick them the CBS thing. I'm in

28
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 2: Multiple Survivor, multiple Fantasy. I did buy into the David

29
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 2: Baker Survivor. Remember the one hundred thousand, So I put

30
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 2: in a thousand, and then my buddy is gonna split

31
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 2: that with me. The thousand on he pays fifty K.

32
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 2: I know, only whatever, but so I'll do five hundred,

33
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 2: can do twenty five k. I mean again five hundred.

34
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 2: It's a full season, you know, fun ride hopefully, and

35
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,600
Speaker 2: Baker's good at that, he's good at Survivor, he's good

36
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 2: at pick them. So we'll see, you know. I just

37
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 2: there's just so much happening. I do want to quickly

38
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 2: start though, before we get to some NFL the Michael

39
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,639
Speaker 2: Parson stuff, Joe Montana leaving Patrick Mahomes off, his top

40
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 2: four quarterback less just quickly, we'll go to Belichick just

41
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,399
Speaker 2: because we didn't talk about it because there's no pod. Yesterday.

42
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 2: Belichick opens his career in college. They get the football

43
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 2: first at UNC Monday night. I was at my son's

44
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 2: fantasy draft. I'm like, guys, we got to get this

45
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 2: game on. They get the ball, they go right down

46
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 2: the field. Awesome throws from Lopez the quarterback, touchdown seven

47
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 2: to nothing, and at that point I'm like, oh shucks,

48
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 2: Belichick knows his stuff. That was an amazing scripted drive. Lopez,

49
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 2: this guy who nobody had ever heard of before a

50
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 2: month ago, look better than Arch Banding did against Ohio State. Now,

51
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 2: obviously tc used not world beaters, but I mean I

52
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 2: saw two throws down an opening drive. I was like, okay,

53
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 2: I see you kid. After that, it was an absolute

54
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 2: bloodbath TCU five hundred plus yards of offense. I saw.

55
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 2: The first downs were twenty nine to ten. I mean,

56
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,520
Speaker 2: it just snowballed on the tar heels. They could get

57
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 2: no stops. But Lopez gets bench for a backup quarterback.

58
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 2: The funniest line I heard Rob was the backup quarterback

59
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 2: is this guy Max Johnson who's been around the block.

60
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,639
Speaker 2: He's like a sixty year super senior. He's twenty four

61
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 2: years old, the same age as Bill Belichick's girlfriend. And

62
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 2: then I saw that when it was forty one to

63
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 2: seven TCU. Someone goes, that's ironic because when Belichick was

64
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 2: forty one, Jordan Hudson was seven, and I was like,

65
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 2: come on, that cannot be right, and obviously he was

66
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 2: not right. It's just funny. I don't know. I detected

67
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 2: a lot of glee. And of course everybody wants to

68
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 2: get on the jump to conclusions Matt and say, listen,

69
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 2: Belichick lost fastball, no Brady, no victories. I mean, come on, well,

70
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 2: what is Belichick it? Instead of a fifty to fifty

71
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 2: or fifty one forty nine with the Patriots for two decades,

72
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 2: it was more like seventy five twenty five Brady. And

73
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 2: I'm just I don't love that stuff. I think it's

74
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 2: a little goofy. That being said, Belichick has a major

75
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 2: uphill climb. I feel like an ass clown for saying,

76
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,039
Speaker 2: oh yeah, Tar Hills a suc they can make it

77
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 2: till the playoff. That ain't happening. But overall, Rob, I

78
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 2: don't know where you did you have Glee watching that

79
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,839
Speaker 2: he disappointed. By the time it was third quarter, I

80
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 2: was I kind of checked out. And now all of

81
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 2: a sudden, any North Carolina gains on the schedule that

82
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:44,839
Speaker 2: had appeal are significantly less for me, at least.

83
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 3: A little bit of both.

84
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 4: Number one, because you know, I've said on this pod

85
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 4: and on Fox Sports Radio when I filled in Fults

86
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 4: in the odd couple that I think this Belichick situation

87
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 4: in North Carolina's gonna be a disaster. I just think

88
00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 4: that his style is not going to work in the

89
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 4: Jimmy's and the Joe's exits, the NIO's and it's just

90
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 4: at this age, I just don't think he's set up

91
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 4: for success the way a younger coach might be for

92
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 4: the current climate college football. On the flip side, I

93
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 4: also tweeted this out, I'm rooting for him because, like

94
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,359
Speaker 4: I crazy aim I say, I want Belichick to be

95
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 4: able to hug up on his twenty five year old

96
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 4: girlfriend and not be ashamed by it. And the only

97
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 4: way that could happen is if his team is successful.

98
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 4: Because if they win and he proves to be a

99
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 4: good college football coach, all the jokes about Jordan Hudson

100
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 4: and you mentioned the forty one to seven Like that

101
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,799
Speaker 4: kind of stuff floats away, or at least it becomes

102
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:45,559
Speaker 4: minimized in a much bigger fashion, because ultimately it's gonna

103
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,280
Speaker 4: come down to wins and losses in North Carolina and

104
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,479
Speaker 4: for them to start off the way they did and

105
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 4: I'm like, all right, cool, I'll be wrong about Bill Belichick.

106
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 4: That's wy I've been wrong about a lot of shit.

107
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 4: And then for them to get bludgeon and it was

108
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 4: like a forty one nothing run through the rest of

109
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 4: the middle part of the game. It was just really

110
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 4: tough to watch. And then you have these video angles

111
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,839
Speaker 4: that show Bill talking to his girlfriend on the sidelines.

112
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 2: I saw that rob quickly. I can't tell when that was,

113
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 2: but it looks like across the field the stands were emptied.

114
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 2: So I'm guessing that this is deep into the fourth quarter.

115
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 2: Do you have any idea what it was.

116
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,039
Speaker 4: I don't know when it was, and I will say

117
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 4: caveat it was during a break in the action, like

118
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 4: there wasn't actually football being played there. I think they

119
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 4: were lining up. It looked like for a kick return

120
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 4: maybe so he oh wait.

121
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:33,600
Speaker 2: A minute, wait, a minute. Hold on, hold on, I'm

122
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 2: I'm rewinding it now. If you positive at the very beginning,

123
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 2: it's gotta be halftime, okay, because there's a bunch of

124
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 2: guys on the field that aren't football players.

125
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 3: There you go.

126
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 2: It could have actually been before the game. It's either halftime,

127
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,359
Speaker 2: but either way it's not a good look.

128
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 4: Right, So you could be talking to her on the

129
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 4: field during before after a game is not a good look.

130
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 4: And having said all of that, if you just look

131
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 4: at the numbers for that game against TCU, not only

132
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 4: was it the worst regular season loss of or second

133
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 4: worst regular season loss of Bill Belichick's coaching career just

134
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:14,400
Speaker 4: in UNC football history, and UNC is not a football powerhouse,

135
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 4: but if you look it up, it was the most

136
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 4: points allowed in the season opener in program history, passing

137
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 4: the forty one they allowed to Oklahoma two thousand and one.

138
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 4: It was also their largest margin of defeat since twenty eighteen.

139
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 4: And for reference, for all the tarhel fans listen to

140
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 4: this show, Mac Brown, the guy who just got asked

141
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 4: to bring in Bill Belichick, never lost the game by

142
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 4: that amount and during his second stint at Caroline, so

143
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 4: everything that could go wrong did go wrong, and then

144
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 4: at the very end after the game, as if it

145
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 4: wasn't bad enough that you beat them by seventy five

146
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 4: million points, Sunny Dykes goes and tells ESPN quote, I

147
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 4: think we all felt a little disrespected coming in. There

148
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 4: was a lot of conversation. None of it is about us.

149
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 4: I think we all were highlight motivated. Our players were

150
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 4: certainly excited to play. So it's like North Carolina is

151
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 4: getting the two years ago Colorado treatment, where everybody's like, man,

152
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 4: I can't wait to shut Dion and should her up.

153
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 4: All these guys do is smile and talk trash and

154
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 4: flash these quarter million dollar watches, and it's like, we're

155
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 4: gonna shut that trap immediately. As far as I know,

156
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 4: Bill Belichick hasn't said anything publicly. As far as I know,

157
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 4: none of the players in North Carolina have done or said.

158
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 4: You didn't even know who Geo Lopez was utill about

159
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,679
Speaker 4: a month ago, not US biblicly, but America. And this

160
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 4: is all coming back to that twenty something year old

161
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 4: girlfriend that he has who decided I don't know if

162
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 4: it was hurt, but I'm to blame her for putting

163
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 4: up those balloons during the press conference. You saw that

164
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 4: it was like an archway. It looked like a four

165
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 4: year old's birthday party.

166
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:46,440
Speaker 3: So you see Bill.

167
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 4: Talking in front of a microphone with a balloon garland

168
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 4: above her head, and it's like, no, she's the reason

169
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 4: why everyone's mad at This is why guys like Jay

170
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 4: Mack and Colin and Steven A are piling on North Carolina.

171
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 4: This is the reason why Sunny Dyke's and everybody else

172
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 4: in college football wants to dunk on Caroline.

173
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 3: It's because I heard nothing that Bill did. So that's

174
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 3: why I kind of feel bad.

175
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, wait, you feel bad for Bill.

176
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 3: I mean I feel bad that he's going out like this.

177
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I don't quite think it's what does

178
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 2: everybody like to reference? Willie Mays had like one of

179
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 2: the greatest careers in baseball history, but then he was

180
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 2: on the Mets at the end and like somebody had

181
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 2: a fly ball and he's like stumbling around, has no

182
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 2: idea what the ball. Like, there are some guys at

183
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 2: the end who hung on too long. A lot of

184
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 2: that you see in boxing. This isn't quite Patrick Ewing

185
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,319
Speaker 2: in a Sonics jersey or Elijah Wan with the raptor.

186
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 2: This isn't quite that, but it's not a great start. Belichick.

187
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 2: You know he's gonna be okay, he's got the twenty

188
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,680
Speaker 2: four year old girlfriend Rob. I mean, come on, yeah,

189
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 2: he's still winning. He is still winning. I wonder if, well,

190
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 2: maybe when Brady shows up at set of Fox Extime

191
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 2: will be like, have you talked to have you talked

192
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 2: to Bill? Since you know season over? I doubt you

193
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 2: would answer that, but yeah, So anyways, they just get

194
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 2: that Bellichick out of the way.

00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 2: Let me actually, by the way, did you see that

200
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 2: they announced the top twenty five in college football? And

201
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 2: this is why I listen. I love football. I like

202
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 2: college football a lot, but this is why college football

203
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 2: is really dumb. So Texas loses no harm in that

204
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 2: they fall from one to seven. Clemson loses at home

205
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 2: to LSU when favored, they fall to eight. Notre Dame

206
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 2: loses on the road to Miami. I get it. They

207
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 2: fall to nine. But Alabama loses as a two touchdown favorite.

208
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 2: To Florida State and they only fall from eight to

209
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 2: twenty one. Why is Alabama still ranked? Who would vote

210
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 2: them in the top twenty five? That is stupid on paper?

211
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 2: Are they really good? Sure they were a week ago,

212
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 2: but they got their ass kicked. I mean, it's just

213
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 2: insane how dumb these voters are. I will say it

214
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 2: is nice to see Miami, Florida, Florida State all back

215
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 2: in like the top fifteen and relevant again. That to

216
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 2: me is the I loved college football a ton as

217
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 2: a young guy. When you know, Notre Dame Miami. You

218
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 2: know those teams were awesome. Florida with t bow back

219
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 2: in the day, FSU with Bobby Bowden, that was vintage

220
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 2: college football. Obviously, now the wealth is more spread out,

221
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 2: and I get that, but guys like Dabo Sweeney talking

222
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,960
Speaker 2: tough at the podium tuesday by we didn't play that bad.

223
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 2: It's not like LSU was that good. Like, what do

224
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 2: you think these guys like Mike Gundy. I don't know, Rob,

225
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 2: how much you've seen them Mike Gundy. So the Oklahoma

226
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 2: State plays Oregon this week and Mike Gundy's talking about

227
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 2: how well you know Oregon is making so much more

228
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,680
Speaker 2: in the NI how they're paying players so much, we're

229
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 2: barely paying a fraction that we even playing them. They

230
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 2: should play people who are in their in their weight class.

231
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 2: And of course Dan Lanning, who's good and I hope

232
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:10,320
Speaker 2: he kicked Mike Gundy's ass, said well, actually they played

233
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 2: ut Martin last week. I wonder what their budget is.

234
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 2: And it's like, oh, that's a mic drop. And oh,

235
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 2: by the way, Oregon's favored by twenty eight. I almost

236
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 2: want to lay it with Oregon thinking that Dan Lanning

237
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 2: is not going to call off the dogs. I mean,

238
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 2: Gundhy talking trash like college football is the gift that

239
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 2: keeps a giving rob.

240
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,839
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, And by the way, that Gundhy landing thing

241
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 4: was probably my favorite story of Tuesday. You know, of

242
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 4: all the things, you know, we had the Micah Parsons situation,

243
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 4: you know, the Bill Belichick fall out. So many that

244
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 4: back and forth I thought was awesome because you don't

245
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,719
Speaker 4: really get that in pro sports. It's rare that you'll

246
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:50,440
Speaker 4: see two head coaches, ultimately or openly just trash talk

247
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 4: each other and point out, you know, some advantages you

248
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,320
Speaker 4: may have had, or somebody is talking about Bill like

249
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 4: you know Bill Belichick cheated to win Super Bowls like

250
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 4: you don't see that today anymore in pros prosorts, but

251
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 4: in college and especially college football in this new Wild

252
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 4: West era that we're in with the NIL, these coaches

253
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 4: will let it fly in ways that I.

254
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 3: Don't think I ever remember.

255
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,680
Speaker 4: And to your point, as far as Oregon in this weekend,

256
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 4: the last time we saw a very motivated regular season

257
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 4: Oregon team, it was against the aforementioned Colorado Buffaloes on

258
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,559
Speaker 4: national television, and I think they beat up bout like

259
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 4: sixty points. So, I mean that's an exaggeration. I know

260
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 4: the about a lot, but they were up like forty

261
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 4: two nothing at one point, and they're like, okay, now

262
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 4: we'll call off the dogs. How high does this number

263
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,560
Speaker 4: get for Oregon? Before Landing calls off the Dogs against

264
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 4: Mike Gundy.

265
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,199
Speaker 2: I expect some fireworks in the pregame handshake, assuming or

266
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 2: postgame handshake, assuming there is one. Rob All right, let's

267
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:49,559
Speaker 2: go to the NFL. This Micah Parsons story ESPN dropped

268
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 2: the big one. I mean, it's a lengthy story. I

269
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 2: don't think there's any major bombshells in there, but essentially

270
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 2: it talks about Michael Parsons in the end in Dallas,

271
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 2: and he was a bit of a lock problem. I mean, listen,

272
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 2: you guys know how it works. When you get traded,

273
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,439
Speaker 2: they then unload on you about what a nightmare it

274
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,599
Speaker 2: was working with you. Nobody ever says or reports this

275
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 2: while it's happening. It is similar in the media, Hollywood.

276
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 2: This is a tried and true story forever CEOs you

277
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 2: have a good run, no matter how good it is.

278
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 2: The second it's over. If it ends ugly, oh well,

279
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 2: that guy was a disaster. So Michael Parsons is now

280
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 2: being pegs just kind of greedy. Michael Parsons is being

281
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 2: unfriendly in the locker room ego. It's not a great look.

282
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 2: But again, like, nothing in here surprised me, rob I mean,

283
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 2: I'm sure some people were surprised, but it's like, but

284
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 2: you're dealing with a twenty five year old who's playing

285
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 2: on the most popular team in football, who is a

286
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 2: generational pass rusher, who has some numbers after four years

287
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 2: that are among the best in NFL history at his position.

288
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 2: He wants all the money he's dealing with. Jerry Jones

289
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 2: negotiations got whatever, Jerry Jones tried to end around to

290
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 2: avoid the agent. I mean, nothing here really was shocking. Frankly,

291
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 2: if you want shocking, Rob, I thought the video of

292
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 2: Micah Parsons practicing with the Packers, now there was no

293
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 2: pads on, but hitting the sled, running all that stuff.

294
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 2: I was like, I don't see a back injury at all.

295
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 2: I mean, he looks like he's ready to go forty

296
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 2: plays in the opener for the Packers against the Lions,

297
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 2: and then of course Adam Schefter Wait a minute, wait

298
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 2: a minute, he is probably gonna need an epidural shot

299
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 2: just to play. And you know, dumb Jason not a doctor. Epidural.

300
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 2: I think that's what they gave my wife before she

301
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 2: gave birth. I think that's kind of standard anyways. But

302
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 2: I don't know. It just seems like it's open season

303
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 2: on Michaeh. Parsons. And I'm sure he's gonna go on

304
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 2: his podcast Rob and refute all this, assuming he's allowed

305
00:15:57,760 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 2: to by the Packers. By the way, I am curious.

306
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 2: Do you think the Packers will be like, hey man,

307
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 2: we want you to dial back the podcast, because remember

308
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers was doing that weekly hit with McAfee where

309
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 2: he was paid like a million dollars and the Jets

310
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 2: hated it, and there are multiple reports that the Jets

311
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 2: asked him not to do it again. And that's a

312
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 2: non starter. I mean, who's turning down a million dollars?

313
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 2: Maybe this dealer's acquiest I don't know, but yeah, I'm

314
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 2: sure Parsons will utilize his podcast to get back at

315
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 2: Jerry and the Cowboys.

316
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 4: Well, speaking of that, do you think that that podcast

317
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 4: is going to have the same level of impact now

318
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 4: that he's with Green Bands that a Dallas because I

319
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 4: don't think so.

320
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 2: Well, the first pack the first one, surely.

321
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 4: The first one, yes, because that's the one. Ideally he'll

322
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 4: address everything that's transpired.

323
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 2: And if the Packers are as good as many think,

324
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 2: I mean, remember Ta was on here last month saying

325
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 2: he's got them in the super Bowl and that was

326
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 2: free Parsons. So if they're making a run to the

327
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 2: super Bowl, I think, yeah, they're going to be huge.

328
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 2: But you're right, the Green Bay market is not the same.

329
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 2: I'm almost certain that if you dropped yourself into Europe

330
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 2: or Asia, nobody's heard of the Green Bay Packers, right,

331
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,879
Speaker 2: Dallas Cowboys everywhere there were global brands.

332
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:06,960
Speaker 3: They're America's team.

333
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 2: They're America's team. So yeah, that's a good point.

334
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:09,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

335
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:11,840
Speaker 4: So, I mean this whole situation with Micah and by

336
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:15,200
Speaker 4: the way, quicksidebar his agent David Mulligetta going on First

337
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 4: Take on Tuesday to talk about I'm assuming it was coordinated. Hey,

338
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 4: we're going to release this report with like seven different

339
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,879
Speaker 4: reporters on it, all very reputable guys. The fact they

340
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 4: got them all to collaborate on one story tells you

341
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 4: how much ESPN values the Cowboys. But they had all

342
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 4: of that put out and then they get his agent

343
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 4: on First Take the same day, So I think that

344
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 4: might have been, you know, on purpose, but for his agent,

345
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 4: mulli Getta to come out and say on the record, quote,

346
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 4: the most important thing is Michael wanted to be a cowboy.

347
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,120
Speaker 3: Wanted to be a cowboy. We did everything we could

348
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:46,400
Speaker 3: for him to remain a cowboy.

349
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,200
Speaker 4: And it's like, I'm sure that's true, But at this

350
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 4: point you don't need to say that. Yeah, Like, you

351
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:54,879
Speaker 4: have your own team now, you're a Green Bay Packer.

352
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 4: Doesn't matter what your ex girlfriends doing. It doesn't matter

353
00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,639
Speaker 4: what she's doing or saying or slandering you in any

354
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,399
Speaker 4: kind of way, because your job is to move on

355
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 4: and produce for Green Bay and not openly pine away

356
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,159
Speaker 4: for what could have been in Dallas. We don't want

357
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 4: another Tyreek Hill situation going on if you're a Packers fan.

358
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,119
Speaker 4: As far as that report, I mean you mentioned it.

359
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 4: We've kind of heard a lot of this already. Friend

360
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 4: of the show Albert Breard reported last week that frustrations

361
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 4: with Micah's podcast and got all the way up to

362
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 4: Dak Prescott because remember Dak Prescott was left off of

363
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 4: Micah's top ten quarterbacks list and that was like a

364
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 4: whole thing, and he got questioned about it. So when

365
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:31,399
Speaker 4: Breard reported that part, it's like, well, we kind of

366
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 4: already knew, because it was hard not to notice that,

367
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,119
Speaker 4: you know, Malie Hooker was saying things about, Hey, I

368
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 4: wish Michah would not say this kind of stuff publicly

369
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 4: on his podcast, and then Micah responds back in a tweet,

370
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:44,639
Speaker 4: not in person, but hey, I wish you would have

371
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 4: told me that directly instead of on a podcast. A

372
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,040
Speaker 4: lot of YadA YadA, and then you know, he flashed

373
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 4: forward to twenty twenty four for that embarrassing playoff loss

374
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:55,440
Speaker 4: to the Packers, and Micah does no media after the game,

375
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 4: but waits for his podcast like two weeks later, and

376
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 4: he rips Jerry Jones from not going all in, and

377
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,440
Speaker 4: then he he rips the play calling because not putting

378
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 4: them in a position to be successful. He's like, but

379
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,120
Speaker 4: I'm very confident and comfortable with the way I played.

380
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:09,439
Speaker 4: I left it all out on the field, So it

381
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 4: wasn't me, it must have been everybody else. So like,

382
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 4: it's it's not hard to tell that as productive as

383
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 4: he was, that that act can run thin very very quickly.

384
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 4: It's not too dissimilar from like Lebron James. Lebron is

385
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 4: a great player, and there's no doubt about Everybody can

386
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 4: admit that he's a great player. But if you don't

387
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 4: like Lebron James, it's not like I can say I

388
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 4: don't see why you don't like him. Like just for example,

389
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 4: that Nike had he put out on Monday, Yeah, the

390
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,920
Speaker 4: Forever King, And it's like, yeah, I could see why

391
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:44,919
Speaker 4: you don't really like Lebron. You know, that seems kind

392
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 4: of a narcissistic move. It seems kind of wild to

393
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,880
Speaker 4: say that you slayed all of your contemporaries like, well, wait,

394
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,360
Speaker 4: did he not I mean, did Steph Curry not own

395
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:54,120
Speaker 4: him in the finals?

396
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 2: Wait? He beat They had the greatest comeback in the

397
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 2: NBA and him once he lost to him three times.

398
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,440
Speaker 2: Curry's been team yes, I know, but still beat them.

399
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 4: Sure, but I'm just saying it just seemed like it

400
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:06,119
Speaker 4: was like, you know what, I could see why some

401
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 4: that might run people the wrong way. And similar to

402
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,680
Speaker 4: Michael Parstons, I could see how as productive as he is,

403
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 4: he's one of the great pass rushers of this generation.

404
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:17,520
Speaker 4: I could see how his commentary, his you know, seem

405
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 4: he says he's a leader, but he deflects all the

406
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 4: time about his role in situations. I could say that

407
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,159
Speaker 4: coul run people the wrong wy, especially if you're a teammate.

408
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, no, that makes sense. It's it is going

409
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,359
Speaker 2: to be really really interesting to see what happens with

410
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 2: the Cowboys. So their line against the Eagles was like

411
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,040
Speaker 2: six and a half maybe ten days ago, it's up

412
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 2: to eight and a half now. I have unloaded on

413
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,440
Speaker 2: the Eagles. I think there is a smash spot to open.

414
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,159
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, there's a world where you're a

415
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 2: Cowboys fan, and you're still optimistic. Not only was Micah

416
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 2: gonna get signed, but hey, hey we got Pickins, We've

417
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:57,679
Speaker 2: got cde Lamb. Are they that far behind Chasin Higgins?

418
00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 2: They're not that far behind them that right now there

419
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 2: is a it's a great duo and you got Dak

420
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 2: Prescott and if the line holds up, they're gonna be

421
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:07,719
Speaker 2: able to put up points and hang with people. Maybe

422
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 2: there's a world where you know, Micah comes back, Digs

423
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 2: is back, and the great defender of the young guy

424
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 2: forget his name, he's the linebacker. He's got like a

425
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,359
Speaker 2: long last name. He was awesome, had a bad injury.

426
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 2: Overshow I can't yes over shown? That's it? Why can't

427
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,679
Speaker 2: we compete? And then the rug gets pulled out from

428
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,920
Speaker 2: under you and you trade Micah And somebody smart texted me,

429
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 2: what if the Cowboys waited all summer? Just let's see

430
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 2: what we have here. Let's check out our defense, See

431
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 2: how we look in the in the preseason, see how

432
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 2: we look in the joint practices and assess things. And

433
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 2: you know, if we got a shot, let's bring back Michael,

434
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 2: we'll go for it. And if not, well, just why

435
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:47,960
Speaker 2: don't we just move on. Is there a world rob

436
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 2: where the Cowboys looked at all that said, yeah, just

437
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 2: saying our year, why don't we just trade him and

438
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 2: see what picks we can get and we go that route?

439
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 2: And I just I hadn't thought about that. I was

440
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 2: like that, that's not terrible. I mean, we don't know

441
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 2: what Jerry's thinking. We know he's a crazy person, a

442
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 2: rich crazy person. But yeah, like, if that is the case,

443
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 2: you're a Cowboys fan, you're just distraught. And if you're

444
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:14,400
Speaker 2: in the locker room, you saw lampost something on social digs. Eagles.

445
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 2: Eagles beat them last year. I think the combined score

446
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 2: was like seventy one to thirteen. Now, I don't think

447
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 2: Dak played anither game, No, but also Jalen Hurts miss

448
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 2: one game. So I could see the Eagles coming out

449
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 2: in really serving notice, Hey, we're still on top. There's

450
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 2: no letup coming from US. I mean they returned their

451
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:35,919
Speaker 2: exact offense minus McKay beck in their guard, and the

452
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 2: defense has some new guys, but they have a really young,

453
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 2: really nasty defense. So I think the Eagles smash them,

454
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 2: and I would not. I think there's a role where

455
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 2: Cowboys finish like five and eleven or five and twelve,

456
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:47,959
Speaker 2: last in the division.

Speaker 2: Love.

461
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:02,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's not crazy at all.

462
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:03,879
Speaker 4: And if you look at the Eagles, they seem to

463
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:07,879
Speaker 4: have the right mental makeup, the mindset going into this season.

464
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 4: You know, Saekuon Barkley that did an interview that one

465
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:13,640
Speaker 4: of the things they talk about in the locker room

466
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 4: is if you think that you're responsible for the Eagle

467
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,880
Speaker 4: Super Bowl win, you are absolutely correct. If you think

468
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,239
Speaker 4: you're the only person responsible for these superow win, then

469
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 4: you're absolutely wrong. So that's a good mindset. And then

470
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:26,880
Speaker 4: the other thing came out on Tuesday. Nick Sirianni said

471
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 4: none of the players are going to be present during

472
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 4: the banner unveiling on Thursday night. So I know that

473
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 4: seems kind of hokey. It's like, hey, we're we're not

474
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 4: defending champs. We just won last year and you know

475
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 4: we're not we're not really defending anything of this new season.

476
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 4: That seems kind of, you know, like a movie, like

477
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 4: a Disney character movie, kind of like a Remember the

478
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,880
Speaker 4: Titan type storyline. But surprisingly that kind of stuff does

479
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 4: go a long way in sports, that if you can

480
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 4: convince these guys similar to the way Nick Sabe used

481
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,440
Speaker 4: to do, be like, hey, we're the underdogs in this situation.

482
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 4: Everybody doesn't think we have it in it. I'm like, bro,

483
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 4: you're Alabama. Everybody thinks you have it in you like,

484
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:05,639
Speaker 4: but he convinced these young kids that they were fighting

485
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 4: in uphill battle. And if Nick Sirowanni can convince this

486
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:12,119
Speaker 4: current team we didn't do anything like last year's last year,

487
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:14,199
Speaker 4: it doesn't matter anymore. We got to go at it

488
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 4: again with the same level of energy and vitriol if

489
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 4: we're gonna repeat as champions. And then I will say

490
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 4: this though, even though I do expect the Eagles are

491
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 4: going to blow out Dallas, especially after the Mica backlash,

492
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 4: did you know that Dak Prescott is thirty three and

493
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 4: eight against the NFC East in his career? Nope, Like

494
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:35,439
Speaker 4: that might be my favorite stat.

495
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 2: Well, wait a minute, Washington was down for many years

496
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 2: with the Daniel Steiner.

497
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 4: Sure, but we talk about Tom Brady all the time,

498
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,400
Speaker 4: like tom Brady's got like a nine hundred win percentage

499
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,159
Speaker 4: against the AFC East, and it's like, yeah, well, you

500
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 4: beat up on the Jets and the Bill sucked for

501
00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,479
Speaker 4: a long time and the Dolphins were never good. So

502
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:53,200
Speaker 4: can we have Dak like a little bit of credit

503
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 4: even if they were the NFC least for a while.

504
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 3: The fact that he did it is kind of cool.

505
00:24:57,960 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 2: No, that's that's a good point. I did not know that.

506
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 2: I do like the Eagles big in their opener, Dak Prescott.

507
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:08,200
Speaker 2: Is he even drafted? By the way, I know Rob

508
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 2: is a renowned fantasy player. Is that a try you're

509
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 2: considering drafting? Uh, you'd laid in drafts.

510
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:14,880
Speaker 4: Yes, you haven't done your draft yet. Hopefully you get

511
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 4: it done today, right because the draft they starts the

512
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 4: season tomorrow. Yeah, if you get him, like in the

513
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 4: tenth or eleventh round, I mean, you forget two years ago,

514
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 4: before this injury, Dak was an All Pro quarterback second

515
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 4: in MVP.

516
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, he was. I forget who their running back

517
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 2: was that year. Was it the end of seek? No,

518
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 2: that would I think he's been going.

519
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:39,919
Speaker 3: Longer, but that would have been a Tony Pollard.

520
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:41,919
Speaker 2: Tony Pollard. Yeah, by the way, I like Tony Pollard

521
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,679
Speaker 2: and Fantasy. I have a couple more drafts to go.

522
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 2: My son, you'll be proud to know, got an A

523
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,359
Speaker 2: in his draft and I had only minimal help.

524
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 3: Well, that means he's gonna lose. Everyone knows that.

525
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 2: If you get a good draft. Yea, if he had

526
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 2: a good draft, that means're gonna be terrible. I guess

527
00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 2: the other angle that I'm sitting on is this whole

528
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 2: like Chiefs. I mean, I get so much shit for

529
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:06,959
Speaker 2: this anti Chiefs. I need the Chargers to show up

530
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,919
Speaker 2: in the opener, rob like big time. Do you want

531
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 2: to go ahead and drop your Super Bowl predictions here?

532
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,119
Speaker 3: Sure? I mean they're all published on social media.

533
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 4: But as far as the Chiefs go to leave that first,

534
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 4: this will be the first year in what a decade.

535
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 3: That I'm not picking them to win the AFC West.

536
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 2: Wow.

537
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:24,439
Speaker 3: I have the.

538
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 4: Denver Broncos winning that division and that hurts because I'm

539
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,119
Speaker 4: a Raider fan, because I want them to be terrible.

540
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:33,679
Speaker 4: So but whatever Super Bowl, I think Lamar Jackson finally

541
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 4: breaks through. Who give me the Baltimore Ravens in a

542
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 4: mild upset over the Philadelphia Eagles. You got Eagles going

543
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 4: back but that's the one I feel less confident in

544
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:45,919
Speaker 4: than the Ravens.

545
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 2: Ravens Eagles. Interesting, well, in that wins pool that you

546
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 2: pick or that I'm doing, I got the Ravens with

547
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 2: my first pick. I had the third overall pick. I

548
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:03,439
Speaker 2: really wanted the Bills went first, and I think I

549
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 2: forget who one second, but I got raven So I

550
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:09,879
Speaker 2: don't hate that. I will go Bill's defeat the forty

551
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 2: nine Ers. Kyle Shanahan loses another Super Bowl. Now it's

552
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 2: weird because a lot of people don't even have the

553
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:17,320
Speaker 2: Niners anywhere, and I just maybe I'm reading too much

554
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 2: into the playoff are the schedule. I think they can

555
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 2: host every playoff game and they won't have to go

556
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,919
Speaker 2: to a green Bay of Philadelphia hostile environments because the

557
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 2: schedule is so freaking easy. All Right, that's it for Wednesday.

558
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 2: We will have an NFL guy picking games coming up,

559
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,640
Speaker 2: and then I don't exactly know what we'll do because

560
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 2: it's not a monster college football weekend. But actually, you

561
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,520
Speaker 2: know what, Friday's pot will probably be reaction to the

562
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 2: ego smash and the Cowboys and upset Jerry Jones. Yeah,

563
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,600
Speaker 2: it's just you know, the new schedule will do a

564
00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,560
Speaker 2: fewer interviews. I think Rob I know he's in it

565
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:04,360
Speaker 2: with two two kids under five, which is tough. I'm I'm,

566
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:06,119
Speaker 2: you know, two kids older who don't want to hang

567
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,400
Speaker 2: with me anymore. So I'm in great shape, so I'm

568
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,080
Speaker 2: I'm ready to rock and roll. So we'll talk to

569
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:10,400
Speaker 2: you more
