It's also 12 00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 1: being able to do what is to plan out the 13 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 1: rest of my year.

I don't know how much the 17 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,279 Speaker 1: fans love this day as well, to know when your 18 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: team is planning against a certain team. I'm excited, brother, 19 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 1: and Kirk. It gives us a chance to move past 20 00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 1: Tom Brady's signing a three hundred and seventy five million 21 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 1: dollar deal to become the lead analyst at Fox. But 22 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 1: did you know that our next guest, Maurice Jones Drew 23 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,039 Speaker 1: actually turned that down. He got the first offer, but 24 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: he said, no, I want to stay with the Rams 25 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 1: radio team. I'm coming back to run it back. Hey listen, 26 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: Like like Sean and Aaron said, why not, let's run 27 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: it back? All right? Foxing offer enough money through seventy 28 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: five wasn't enough to move the needle. Unlike you and Kirk, though, Like, 29 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: I'm more excited about the preseason. We finally to see 30 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: guys go. This is just telling. This is the broad 31 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 1: strokes of thing. We get to see where we're gonna be, 32 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 1: what kind of food that we're gonna take from DeMarco 33 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 1: we go, you know all those type of things. You know, 34 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna have some barbecue on this on this journey, 35 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: this twenty twenty two journey, and some soul food DeMarco. 36 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: So I can't wait. We're heady. Speaking of taking from DeMarco, 37 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: did everyone see the stealing the schedule cameo that he 38 00:01:55,280 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: made with Terrell Burgess? Oh my goodness, Yeah, he's got us. 39 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: He's got his sad card. Now we know, that DeMarco 40 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 1: is full on. He went Hollywood on the show. Look, 41 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: te Burgess is quicker than you think. I tried to 42 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,079 Speaker 1: grab him twice. That's a young dude, a young fast cat. 43 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: That was fun. That was fun to film. That was great. 44 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 1: I'm glad we get to know the who's and wares. 45 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:18,959 Speaker 1: I'm like you, guys, I want to know where I'm going, 46 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: but when when's the bye? But you know where you 47 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: schedule them? Great. I just can't wait to get to 48 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 1: the games. I'm kind of like Maurice, Let's just get 49 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 1: playing again, all right, real quick before we get to 50 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: the schedule And j D and Kirk, what do you 51 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: think was the better cameo for DeMarco Nolly's Air Force 52 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:41,079 Speaker 1: Ones for the twenty twenty two schedule release. Yeah, I'm 53 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: going Nelly's Air Force One. Come on, man, that is 54 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: a classic song. And then just think about it though 55 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: back then the jerseys seeing DeMarco and old school jeans, 56 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: come on, man, I gotta go with that. For me, 57 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 1: it's any you know, not only the Air Force One 58 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,080 Speaker 1: video but the other videos that DeMarco's in with the 59 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: Saint Lunatics. So I'm excited for him. He's had a 60 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: lot of He's been around the camera a lot. Hey, 61 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 1: that Netlie's video shoot was more fun, but for different reasons. Differently, Yeah, 62 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 1: you know who else is gonna be around the cameras 63 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: a lot? Good segue there, Maurice Jones Drew. You're twenty 64 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: twenty two Los Angeles Rams. You're defending world champions. Five 65 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: primetime games unveiled today, and they're gonna play twelve of 66 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: their seventeen in at least what you would call the 67 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: national window, the second window on either Fox or CBS's 68 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:33,959 Speaker 1: game other weeks. So let's go around the horn. MJD. 69 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: Kick us off. What do you like most about what 70 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: you see? I love the first game. I thought the 71 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: first game was was perfect. A little revenge there. It's 72 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: kind of like that ex girlfriend. You're playing the Buffalo 73 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: Bills to start it off, you get the rings, you 74 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: do the whole ceremony. Everyone's crying, shaking hands. Now we 75 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: gotta go to war, and one of our brothers is 76 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: on the other side, Von Miller, who chose the Buffalo 77 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: Bills over the Los Angeles Rams. Time for a little payback. 78 00:03:58,320 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: It's kind of like, you know, when you and your 79 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: partner going after the same girl and she chooses him. 80 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: How do you get revenge in that situation? I thought, 81 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: just to start off with that big of a game 82 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: is gonna be huge demark. I'm going back to that 83 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: loss a couple of years ago, twenty twenty in Buffalo. 84 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 1: That might have been the most entertaining I don't want 85 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 1: to say enjoyable loss, but like the most thrilling loss 86 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: that I've ever been a part of in the sport 87 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: of football. Remember I come back. Yeah, it was a 88 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 1: fun game. I think we went into that game with 89 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 1: question marks about Josh Allen and we left with those 90 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: questions answered. He is as good as advertised. I just 91 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 1: remember those Ram defenders were on him like a bunch 92 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: of hyenas, and he was just smacking guys off, stand alive, 93 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: keeping the play alive, and keeping Buffalo alive. So we 94 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 1: knew the Rams were good. We didn't know about Buffalo. 95 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: We didn't know about Josh Allen, but we sure were 96 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 1: left feeling like, Wow, this kid's gonna be you know, 97 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 1: around for a while, and sure enough, here he is. 98 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: But yeah, going to Buffalo is always fun. They love 99 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: football up there. They love the Buffalo Bills. It's a 100 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: great environment. It's like a kalee NFL environment. They're really 101 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: involved in it so and they're really good. So yeah, 102 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: it's it's a great opening matchup start with that game. 103 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: Who knows you could end with that game this year. Yeah, Kirk, 104 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: when you take a first glance, what stands out what 105 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: DeMarco said earlier, Man, it's win is my bye week? 106 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 1: And I look at the Rams having two bye weeks. Honestly, 107 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 1: when you look at their first bye week is week 108 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,160 Speaker 1: number seven, and then it's when is the next game? Well, 109 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 1: they'll play a mini bye week sort of after Week fourteen, 110 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: going against the Raiders on a Thursday night. They won't 111 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: play for eleven more days, which is a Monday night 112 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 1: game at Green Bay. So essentially, that's what stuck out 113 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: to me about the schedule for the Rams is they're 114 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 1: gonna play six games, take a break, play some more games, 115 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 1: and have an eleven game or eleven day break in 116 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: between before they have to play again. So essentially, two 117 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: bye weeks for the Rams and then they'll finish up 118 00:05:55,560 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: the schedules pretty strong. Is that that's a cat I 119 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 1: didn't shut the door, So here goes she wanted all 120 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: that attention. She wanted to know too. She looks as 121 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: everyone was still in the release and still in the draft. 122 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: Kier is trying to steal the show as well. She 123 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 1: wants to come in and get her a little two 124 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,799 Speaker 1: cents and go. I was listening into the podcast version 125 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 1: and not watching the show on YouTube. Maurice Jones. Drew 126 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: has some pet guests, some cameos of his own up 127 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: there real quick. On that double buy presentation that you mentioned, Kirk, 128 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,239 Speaker 1: I think that's the glass half full view of things 129 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 1: because week seven is earlier than any I think head 130 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: coach or organization would want for their buy. Right, that's 131 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: the earliest mcphath's ever had. Yeah, I think, Look, you know, 132 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: you're really still trying to figure out what's your identity. 133 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,599 Speaker 1: People think they know who they're going to be each year, 134 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: but it takes a little bit of time. It's always 135 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 1: a new cast of characters, regardless of how you finished 136 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: a year before. But to have six games play, take 137 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: a little bit of a break, analyze where you're at. 138 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 1: I really feel like the last really half full is 139 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: having eleven days at a time in which you may 140 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: have to go out and make a business decision, which 141 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: we know the Rams are not afraid to do. So 142 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: they have time to really analyze where they're at six 143 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: weeks in and come back, take a break, and then 144 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: go back out and play against a Raiders team. And 145 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: then we know Monday Night Football going against Aaron Rodgers. 146 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: Eleven days after that Raiders game, they'll have a little 147 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: bit of time and well, you know, similar to last year, 148 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: it's always about how is this team when they go 149 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: up against the Packers. We remember last year having Von 150 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: Miller and having Odell Beckham, we knew that the Rams 151 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: had some work to do and it was all centered 152 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: around going to Green Bay. Let me preface this next 153 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: topic by just reminding everyone that the schedule is tough 154 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 1: this year, maybe probably the toughest of any team in 155 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: the National Football League because the Rams won their division 156 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: last year, right because they are a first place team 157 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 1: playing a first place schedule, and then it just so 158 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: happens that they align with the AFCU West. That's a 159 00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: rotational formulaic thing predetermined way in advance, and that division 160 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: happens to go bananas this offseason. Right, they happen to 161 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 1: be the most buzzworthy division in all football But all 162 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: that to say, what concerns you, what bothers you? If 163 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: you had a bone to pick, what might it be 164 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: about this schedule? MJD. Anything stand out? Yeah, I would. 165 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: I would just say it's the back to backs. You 166 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: have some back to back away games New Orleans and 167 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: then you go to Kansas City in November. That's always tough. 168 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: There's a couple other ones or is it Arizona San 169 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 1: Francisco earlier? Yeah, that's that's early. And again I would 170 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 1: say this too about the schedule. Although though the back 171 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: to back road games are always tough, but when your 172 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: division has been kind of I don't know what the 173 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,959 Speaker 1: word is. They've taken every player out of your division 174 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: pretty much, right, I mean the stuff of the Niners 175 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 1: with debo, but the Cardinals have lost a lot, the 176 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 1: Seahawks have lost everything. To me, you want those tough 177 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: games to kind of sharpen your blazes you go into 178 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 1: the playoffs, and I love those back to back games. 179 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: Now that you said we had the back to back 180 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 1: on the road with the Arizona San Francisco, then you 181 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: have outs in New Orleans, Kansas City and as I'm 182 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: getting to the rest of the schedule. The last one 183 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: doesn't really count because it's after Chargers week seventeen and 184 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: the next Seattle. Yeah, but even going to green Bay 185 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 1: and then you know you have Vegas on Thursday. Green Bay, 186 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: then Denver's a that's a tough stretch, right those are 187 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: those are a tough stretch, and then the Chargers right 188 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 1: after that. So you have some tough stretches here. But again, 189 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: those stretches come into time where you need to be 190 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: playing your best. Very similar last year, where the Rams 191 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 1: had to play their best tours in and the Ravens, 192 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 1: the Packers, the Niners. You had to play your best 193 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,439 Speaker 1: going into the playoffs to be able to make that run. 194 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 1: I always look for road back to backs too, But 195 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 1: I don't think the Rams will get any sympathy for 196 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 1: their travel schedule this year because it's about as friendly 197 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:50,959 Speaker 1: as it's ever been. They don't leave the time zone 198 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: until November. They go nearly a month without a road game, 199 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: and I think they only play one in the Eastern 200 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: time zone and only one in the ten am Pacific window. 201 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: How about you DeMarco or a Kurt feel free to 202 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 1: chime in here. What bothers you? If you could wave 203 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 1: a wand and change one thing. Nothing bothers me about 204 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,239 Speaker 1: the schedule. I mean, look, it's football and you're in primetime. 205 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 1: You're you're gonna have a lot of eyeballs on you. 206 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 1: So that's the positive. The negative. If you don't play well, 207 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 1: you're gonna have a lot of eyeballs on you. But 208 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,439 Speaker 1: that's that's the benefit of being Super Bowl champion. Um. 209 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 1: I don't like the at and at around Thanksgiving. That's 210 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,079 Speaker 1: tough on the family, But I do love Christmas Day. 211 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,199 Speaker 1: You're right here in Los Angeles, so uh, they give 212 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: it and they take it. Um, there's some San Francisco 213 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: early Um, and something is up in San Francisco because 214 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo is still there. And if it was one 215 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 1: hundred percent, you know, all smooth sailing with U with 216 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: the other quarterback, Trey Lance, Garoppolo would have been gone. 217 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 1: So something's going on there. But getting them early twice, 218 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 1: I think it's beneficial for the Rams. I really do. 219 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: If something is going to go wrong, it's gonna go 220 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: wrong early in San Francisco, So I like that part 221 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 1: of it. The buys a little bit early, those at 222 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 1: and ats around in November is gonna be tough. But 223 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: if any group in the NFL can handle this, it's 224 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 1: gonna be Sean McVay and this group. They've been to London, 225 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: they've won, They've been to different time zones, they've won. Now, 226 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: like you said, you don't get to leave your own 227 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: time zone, so they can handle this situation. So I 228 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: don't think there are already bad spots for a defending 229 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: Super Bowl champion when you have a schedule like this, well, 230 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: I would say, honestly, DeMarco, I still feel like November 231 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 1: is the toughest month when you only have one home 232 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: game against the Arizona Cardinals. And just take the Rams 233 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: out of this equation. Let's just talk football. If someone said, hey, 234 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: you got four games. One of them is gonna be 235 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: at home, but you've got three games on the road 236 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: at Tampa, at New Orleans, at Kansas City, I don't 237 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 1: care who you are. That is a guntlet in the 238 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 1: month of November anymore. Though, that's the thing New Orleans 239 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: Jamis Winston. It's a little bit different, right, it's a 240 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 1: little bit different. But I did see a five and 241 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: two Jameis Winston before he got hurt last season. They 242 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 1: play some we give football with him that quarterback, So 243 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:04,679 Speaker 1: we know it's on the road, so you get we've 244 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 1: been in that dome, we know how crazy that dome 245 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 1: could be, and it gives them a lift. But that 246 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: month of November I think it's gonna be very tough 247 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 1: for the Rams. I do like how they finished though 248 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: four of six at home, and I do say four 249 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,719 Speaker 1: of six with the air quotes because you mentioned that 250 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 1: home game or away home versus the Los Angeles Chargers 251 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 1: on New Year's So the four of six at the 252 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: end of the season I think is really good. But man, 253 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: that month of November, just to set up that December 254 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: January is gonna be tough. J JB. Same locker room 255 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: for the Chargers if you're home away, the Rams are 256 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: still in the Rams locker room, right. Yeah, They've got 257 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: their designated sides and everything, and that's all part of 258 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 1: the Rams having the nine home eight away split with 259 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: the unbalanced schedule playing in their favor this year, and 260 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: then one of those road games happens to be at 261 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 1: Sofi Stadium. J Yeah, real quick, We're just we're not 262 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: gonna talk about it. Huh. We're just not gonna bring 263 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 1: it up. December in Green Bay. DeMarco, you act like 264 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 1: you weren't outside. That's let's just be honest. We're gonna 265 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: really talk about this. Let's be honest with the fans. 266 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 1: It is gonna be freezing. I go to be like, 267 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:14,719 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have everything on at this point. Okay, I 268 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: don't know. We went to what it was November ish, Yeah, 269 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: Ymber last year? Yeah, yeah, it was, it was, it was, 270 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 1: it was different December. Oh my goodness. No, no, all right, 271 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: and that's game that we need to circle. Let me 272 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: use that as a jumping off point for a few 273 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: forty nine er thoughts, right, because what you reminded me 274 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: of is it didn't bother the forty nine ers when 275 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: they went there and paved the way for the Rams 276 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,319 Speaker 1: to play Super Bowl fifty six by way of Sofi 277 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: Stadium in the NC Championship game. One of the thought 278 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,839 Speaker 1: about the buy that pertains to the Niners. While Week 279 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: seven is early, it does land right before a game 280 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 1: against your biggest division rival, so that could be helpful. Um. 281 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 1: And then in terms of what bothers me or what 282 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: I don't love about this schedule, if I had a complaint, 283 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,839 Speaker 1: why are you playing the Niners twice before Lean and 284 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,079 Speaker 1: why are you done with the Niners and the Cardinals 285 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 1: each before Thanksgiving? If the division is going to play 286 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: out the way that it is perceived publicly, which is 287 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: you know Rams and Niners at the top, Arizona challenging 288 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 1: in Seattle, maybe bringing up the rear, then I was 289 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 1: kind of expecting like a week eighteen forty nine Ers 290 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 1: rematch home or away anyone else. I the reason I 291 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: would say no is because of Trey Lance is the unknown, 292 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: right and the two games of Jiu Jitsy with Trey Lance, 293 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: they didn't look as explosive as they've did with Jimmy Garoppolo. 294 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 1: And so when you're the maker, it may be that 295 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: they're trying to do Arizona in San fran around that time. 296 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: But to me, I thought the best part for the Rams. 297 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: At least you have the Chargers who are loaded, you 298 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: have the Packaers who you struggled against, and you're playing 299 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: the Las Vegas Raiders. And let's all know, when you 300 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: play the Raiders in LA that stadium is going to 301 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: be joining. So it's it's on Thursday, that's good on 302 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 1: Thursday talking it could be they can play it on Tuesday. 303 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: Then people show over the stadium. It's not a weekend. 304 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: See what I mean. This is Roco. You can play 305 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 1: this on the on the next day after it not 306 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 1: even Monday. He could be another day you add to 307 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 1: the week and the Raider fans are going to show up. 308 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 1: But I believe that they You put them through that 309 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: guy like like Kirk talked about, and then you you 310 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: finished with a tough opponent in Seattle. We already know 311 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: how tough Seattle is to win up there. So the 312 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 1: Rams have had success, but it is always tough and 313 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 1: it's gonna be obviously different. In January a couple more 314 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 1: quick ones, DeMarco mentioned Christmas Day. Anyone else have feelings 315 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 1: about playing on Sunday, the twenty fifth of December? O mine, No, 316 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: don't mind. Just hey, wrap up, you know, let's open 317 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 1: up the presence and then hey, that's got to go 318 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: to work. But I think when you look at just 319 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: the Christmas Day, obviously, that's the one thing I always 320 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: looked at when I look at my checklist. JB. DeMarco, 321 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: M J D. When I get my schedule, that's what 322 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: I do on my checklist. It's where do I start? 323 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 1: Where do I finish? When's my bye week? But where 324 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 1: am I head on the holidays? And this year the 325 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: Rams we're gonna be playing Thanksgiving week, they'll go to 326 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: Kansas City. Then Christmas Day? Where are you? You're at home? 327 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 1: New Year's where you're at You're at home. So you 328 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 1: got the holidays covered. Not a lot of distractions outside 329 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 1: of that Kansas City game. So I like the way 330 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 1: it's lining up. And it'll be a special Christmas to 331 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 1: be able to wake up, especially in California and play 332 00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: against a much improved in Ver Broncos team with Russell Wilson. 333 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 1: You want me to complain about being home for Christmas, 334 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: I don't do it. I was gonna say, me and 335 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 1: Kirk played for the Jaguars. Listen, we put us home 336 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: Christmas Day. That's a national game. I don't care what 337 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 1: nobody right, So we get you love those national games 338 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 1: the NBA players on Christmas. Now the NFL does it. 339 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: Oh you want to play on those holidays because people 340 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 1: aren't working, And that's when you know you get the eyeballs. 341 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: Like de Marco said, the one thing about the schedule 342 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: is and you said it to JB. Twelve games playing 343 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: in primetime windows. That's that to me, that's how you 344 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: make money on both as a coach and as a player, 345 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: and that's how your team gets perceive throughout the national 346 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: media as well. C J. Ask you who's gonna benefit 347 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 1: more if Cooper Cup does it again? Can he become 348 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: any more famous than he already is? Is Aaron Donald's 349 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 1: gonna benefit from dominating on national TV. He's already heading 350 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 1: to cat and we know this. The guy keep coming 351 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:21,159 Speaker 1: back to is like Sean McVay. Sean mcvay's mug is 352 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 1: gonna be on National TV twelve out of seventeen weeks. 353 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 1: He's gonna become a more of a celebrity head coach 354 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 1: than he already is if he can run this gauntlet. 355 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 1: But oh yeah, like you mentioned Matthew Stafford obviously what 356 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,160 Speaker 1: he did last year, but he's another guy that we're 357 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 1: gonna see his mug a lot more. And to think 358 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 1: of what he did in one year, you add another 359 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,679 Speaker 1: season like this or another season in which he's on 360 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: primetime as much as he will be trust me, he 361 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 1: will be talked about, I think as one of the 362 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 1: top five quarterbacks in the NFL. Because I don't know 363 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 1: where we rank him at after last season, We're like, Okay, 364 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 1: he validated that he was good. But as much as 365 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 1: we're gonna see him in primetime, we may be talking 366 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,920 Speaker 1: about possible mv P Matthew Stafford. As much as the 367 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,199 Speaker 1: Rams would be in prime time Bobby Wagner, We're not 368 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 1: gonna we have to talk about the new additions Bobby Wagner, 369 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: Leonard Floyd, Jalen Ramsey. Uh, there's questions on the back end. 370 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 1: Let's think of um, okay, excuse me, I'm going drawing blank. 371 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 1: But the same thing that stepped in Special Scott. That's 372 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 1: this is if Nick Scott starts, this is a moneymaker 373 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: for you, right because again everyone sees you listen, and 374 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 1: I think our fans and understand. Just like they watched 375 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 1: the game on TV, a lot of other NFL teams 376 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 1: and executives watched the game on TV as well, right 377 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 1: they do. They also have their thirty for thirty tape. 378 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:38,120 Speaker 1: But you also want to see what guys do live 379 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 1: and so when teams have a bye week. I remember 380 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,679 Speaker 1: being in Jacksonville seeing our head coach Jack Darrio have 381 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: the games on Sunday. So this is this is those 382 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 1: prime time. Games not only bring a lot of notoriety, 383 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 1: but they give you opportunity to really create generational wealth 384 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,399 Speaker 1: if you play and you do it right. Since you 385 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: drop Abby Wagner's name, he has to wait until December 386 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 1: to face his former team, and he won't get to 387 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 1: go back to Seattle until the regular season finale week eighteen. 388 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 1: So maybe he's one that is a bit disappointed with 389 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 1: how it all shaped up. All right, so here are 390 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 1: four of us. We all get into the games for free, 391 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 1: but today is about those paying customers who get to 392 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 1: plan and organize and invest their their time and their 393 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: resources in coming to RAMS games. So I have a 394 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 1: question to finish for all of you. Give me one 395 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 1: game on this schedule that you would pay out of 396 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 1: your own pocket or at least out of MJD's pocket 397 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 1: to see, to sit in the stands and to watch 398 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: that you would pay to be there as a fan. 399 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:44,239 Speaker 1: What tops that list? Number one? Buffalo Bills, no doubt. 400 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 1: Give me Josh Allen, give me Von Miller, give me 401 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,479 Speaker 1: stuff on Diggs, a new vamped offense. They went out 402 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 1: and spent a lot of money on offense and defense. 403 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: I love that first matchup. Are you buying them as 404 00:19:56,119 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 1: Super Bowl favorites in twenty two. Oh yeah, the only 405 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 1: thing they have to do. I would say this, the 406 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: only thing they have to do. They have to win 407 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: in Kansas City. That's it. If they can win in 408 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 1: Kansas City, they're Super Bowl favorites, all right, DeMarco Kirk, 409 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: anyone have an answer? Ready? Well, Buffalo was top of mine. 410 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: And I'll say the Christmas game Denver. I think Denver, 411 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 1: watch out for the Broncos, watch out for Russell Wilson 412 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 1: and what he might do with that franchise in that division. 413 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: So that could wind up being a It's already a 414 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,439 Speaker 1: marquee game, but a very important football game. And wouldn't 415 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 1: it be fun? You know if you play up the 416 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 1: matchup Aaron Donald versus Russell Wilson one more time on Christmas? 417 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: Can he finally get away from Aaron? Can he finally 418 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 1: get away from the Grinch? So I'll say that one. 419 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 1: If Buffalo's out of the equation, I'll take that Christmas 420 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 1: Day game Denver. Well, if I got to pay for one, fellas, 421 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna go back to the last time we 422 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: saw these two teams, Tango, And when you think about 423 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Rams taking on the Kansas City Chiefs, 424 00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: and what we saw on a Monday night, Come on now, 425 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: I mean we thought the NFL was going to change. 426 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 1: When you had two teams scoring in the fifties or 427 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 1: near the fifties, you're saying, Wow, it was offense. It 428 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 1: was offense. It was sort of the birth of Patrick 429 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 1: Mahomes right in front of our eyes. But now to 430 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 1: have Matthew Stafford go up against Patrick Mahomes in Kansas City, 431 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,400 Speaker 1: that's the game that I want to see because we 432 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 1: ranked Patrick Mahomes towards the top of the NFL, and 433 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: I mentioned earlier about Matthew Stafford. Could that be the 434 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: game that everybody's saying he may be an equal, if 435 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,440 Speaker 1: not greater to Patrick Mahomes this year. And I think 436 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 1: that's a MVP type of game. I'd pay for that one. 437 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 1: And it's coming up look Thanksgiving week two, so that's 438 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 1: an easy way to get there. There's one of those 439 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: questions where I'm happy to go last because there are 440 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: still so many good picks on the board. Right I'm 441 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:47,119 Speaker 1: settling between two week eight and week nine. Part of 442 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: me wants to say one more at Tampa Bay, right 443 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,880 Speaker 1: to take on the undertaker, Tom Brady, who every time 444 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 1: you think you finished him off, comes back for another round. 445 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:56,600 Speaker 1: But now that we know what his exit strategy looks like, 446 00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 1: this really may be the last time that you get 447 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: to face Tom Brady and you know, help set him 448 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: back like the Rams thought they did in the divisional 449 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:07,160 Speaker 1: round last year. But the week before the rematch against 450 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty nine ers at SOFI Stadium, to me, 451 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 1: that rivalry is all the way back to full throttle. 452 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:17,119 Speaker 1: And I would pay to be there the night before 453 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: Halloween to see them come to Los Angeles again, given 454 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 1: what transpired between them last year. JB, can I say 455 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,639 Speaker 1: one thing? You can say things. I just want to 456 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,919 Speaker 1: say one thing. I'm just waiting for the Rams to 457 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 1: get a home into the preseason game. That's it every 458 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: year in the road. It's Denver now where Cincinnati. It's like, look, 459 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:38,919 Speaker 1: we just look, we just won the ship. Can we 460 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:40,919 Speaker 1: get back to back home games? They can we get 461 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 1: into the preseason home game like they already off. They 462 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,160 Speaker 1: already lopped off that fourth preseason game. Why does going 463 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 1: to Cincinnati in Week three of the preseason bobbies so much? 464 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,679 Speaker 1: Because because it's at the end, JB. I like to 465 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: get in my car and go home. That's really what. 466 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: At the end of the day, I've just been selfish. 467 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: I'd like to get in my car and go the booth. 468 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,240 Speaker 1: He's talking about being cold. Jeffy likes it with the 469 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 1: window open. That's definitely, it's not like it's not like 470 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 1: we're not cold. And this windy up there too. At 471 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: least it's Cincinnati in August, not Cincinnati in October December, 472 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: right Cincinnati period, Kirk, I would be in LA. I 473 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 1: just want to know what Maurice is doing between preseason 474 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 1: three and September eighth against the Buffalo Bills. I know 475 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,399 Speaker 1: he's about to flee the country and go have some 476 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 1: fun in this off season, but apparently he's got big 477 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: plans for what is that early September as well. Listen, 478 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 1: you know I'm in a Fantasy league Labor Day weekend. 479 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 1: We travel every year to do a live draft. This 480 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,399 Speaker 1: year is in the DR so I mean I'm a 481 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 1: little you know, I'm a little I need to get there, Kevi. 482 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 1: Tennessee draft is in the Dominican Republic.
