44
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: surpassed us, which explains a lot of why you're not

45
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 1: on the show anymore. I mean you started ahead of

46
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 1: us too, but yeah, she started ahead and then and

47
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 1: then we kind of were catching up, and then out

48
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,040

74
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: about to uncover some things that people just aren't talking about.

75
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: Dan told me the delivery is very important with that segment.

76
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:20,039
Speaker 1: Maximum maximum condescending attitude is what you're looking for. Um

77
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,720
Speaker 1: and uh but this week we're gonna have UM our

78

Speaker 1: the area, if you want to travel, see if you

82
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 1: can snag a tick ticket. Otherwise you can go outside

83
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: and scalp it and sane price. Greg. I know, Um,

84
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 1: you you like to live in the realm of kind

85
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 1: of under underground seedy business dealings. Uh. That's that's what

86
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 1: the scalping industry is, essentially. The move. The move is

87
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 1: to wait until the last minute if you're gonna scalp.

88
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: I did that with the World Series. You just just

89
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 1: show up there and have confidence that you're gonna get

90
00:04:57,920 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 1: it last minute. I did have a friend that said

91
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 1: they were like, look for concert tickets on ticket masks

92
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 1: or on some ticket site, you know, for this week.

93
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 1: And we showed up on the list. We've probably not

00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,919
Speaker 1: made We've made it. Um take that NFL now. Uh

95
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: And and weirdly he said there were hundreds and hundreds

96
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 1: of tickets still available. Well that makes sense to um.

108
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:10,159
Speaker 1: of stars, including Mark my stars my would sometimes you

110
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,839
Speaker 1: you're gonna have the vapors. I normally do not sleep

111
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,359
Speaker 1: well in general, but I've just honestly been feeling a

112
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 1: little nervous about this and hot at all times, so

113
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 1: I'm not sure how it will go. I had an idea.

114
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: By the way, that doesn't matter. He saved my team.

115
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:39,159
Speaker 1: What about when Baker comes onto the set? What if wordless,

116
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: we all West Gregg and myself just stand up and

117
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: walk away and it's just the tea. What would your

118
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 1: pant piece Gale v right there? Would you want to

119
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 1: be yes? I would. I actually would like to talk

120
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 1: to him and have all of you far away. I

121
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 1: just hear about everyone else's stuff. I want to sit

122
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 1: down with Baker Mayfield for like two or three hours

123
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,160
Speaker 1: and just process the entire movement. I mean, I think

124
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 1: that can be arranged. We have plenty of guest Jujuice

125
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 1: Smith Shuster, Jamal Adams like tends to guess all week.

126
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: So I would be happy to have all of us

127
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 1: sit out the Baker Another one, Are you kidding me?

128
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: It would be terrible? Another need to be Another funny

129
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 1: move would be to uh have Baker and then cut

130
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 1: Marks Mike. That would also what would you rather have happened?

131
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: I would I would take people out if that happened.

132
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 1: Um So, anyway, that's just one of many guests. We

133
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,880

148
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,960
Speaker 1: of our show, and yet his representatives desperately trying to

149
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 1: offload over stock of their ridiculous T shirt. No, they

150
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 1: took a bath on those T shirts. They're trying to

151
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: offload it all. And uh, he doesn't know the show,

152
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 1: but his agent does apparently. I thought you didn't even

153
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,920
Speaker 1: want a shirt anyway. I don't. I don't want to.

154
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: I tell you I would burn it and put it

155
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: on Instagram if I ended up. I mean, how much

156
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,200
Speaker 1: how many T shirts would you have to buy for

157
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 1: a guy who's made tens of millions of dollars to

158
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: take a bath on the product? Even rich people could

159
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 1: take a bath on a business deal. You know. At

160
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 1: any point, I'm gonna put it in my garage. I'm

161
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 1: gonna hang it up. Yeah. My kids are exciting and

162
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: they will disappear systematically from each of your homes if

163
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 1: you accept them. Um. That was Julian Edelman at Opening Night.

164
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 1: That was Erica tam posey. Uh, she doesn't have a mike.

165
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: I would like to talk about how she felt talking

166
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 1: to Julian, but maybe we'll do that. She loved it.

167
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 1: Her heart was pounding her heart. Um. Opening Night takeaways. Um,

168
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 1: she's pounding her shirt from the Charlie Brown collection. She

169
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 1: doesn't have a mic. She's saying that's not fair, that's

170
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 1: actually great Erica before the show started, buried Greg saying

171
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 1: his his his shirt was from Hot Topic, which was

172
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: a nice dig. And Greg was silent for about a

173
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,679
Speaker 1: minute and a half afterwards. So as we know, I

174
00:09:55,679 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 1: don't even know if yeah, if you come after a

175
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 1: common move with Greg as if you, if you go

176
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 1: after him, he goes quiet. He starts thinking he's pensive,

177
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: and then he goes through the robot brain and figures

178
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,719
Speaker 1: out how to deliver the return fire, and then he

179
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: zaps you and Erica. He went after the woman without

180
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 1: a mike, which in today's times, Oh, woman can't speak

181
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 1: for herself, Greg dodgy territory for you to wait into.

182
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 1: She speaks plenty Opening night, h Greg, you were in attendance, Mark,

183
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:33,719
Speaker 1: you were there for a brief time. I heard you

184
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 1: made a cameo. I made a cameo. That's the best

185
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 1: way to handle that event. Henry Hodgson nfl uk Hank

186
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 1: told me last night that, um, he was entering the

187
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 1: facility just as it was kicking off and you're already

188
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 1: heading back to the hotel. Well, I was like a

189
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,679
Speaker 1: fourteen minutes on foot removed from the event when I

190
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: saw Henry, and I honestly, I feel like it's three

191
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 1: years away from becoming the Fire Festival, and it added

192
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 1: probably I think it honestly added two years to mind.

193
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 1: I don't mean Super Bowl livelihood, but my human life

194
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,079
Speaker 1: to leave when I did. Wait, I would love a

195
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 1: little bit more of an explanation why I think it

196
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: is ripe for at some point it just keeps getting

197
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: bigger and more chaotic. It is ripe for something that

198
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 1: goes totally over peak threshold and has a total meltdown

199
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 1: thing where everyone sort of locked in. Probably be next

200
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 1: year at like the Marlin Stadium, everyone locked in and

201
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 1: they can't get out, and you've got all these like

202
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 1: hot people and athletes like loafing around eating each other.

203
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 1: By the end of the night, it was very meals

204
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 1: very unique and very marked. That he showed up like

205
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 1: an hour and a half early to stand on and

206
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: I wasn't there. I got there really like to stand

207
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,559
Speaker 1: on the floor, and then left immediately after. It's I

208
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 1: didn't know how to get back to the hotel, and

209
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 1: I knew if I went back to the hotel, I

210
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 1: would never make it back to media Nights. So I

211
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,680
Speaker 1: checked the box um as lightly as possible and danced

212
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 1: out of there before it got us. Well, let's get

213
00:11:56,040 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: into it. Greg, You um, you're working on some written pieces,

214
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,079
Speaker 1: I believe, and you you talked with some lesser stars.

215
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 1: You didn't really hang out around the risers where the

216
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 1: big names were. But what we're like some takeaways you

217
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: had from the night, well from watching you know, the

218
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: coverage of it, just how relaxed Tom Brady is. What

219
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 1: and this extends from last week and really the Saturday

220
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,720
Speaker 1: press conference he had in Foxboro, it really struck me

221
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 1: how contemplate of he was and philosophical and enjoying the moment.

222
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 1: Damn a second us talked about it beforehand, but he

223
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: he really doesn't seem about as relaxed and happy. And

224
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 1: maybe it's just because this season doesn't have anything heavy

225
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 1: attached to it. There's no drama about a gate, or

226
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,120
Speaker 1: there's no him in Belichick warring, or it's just he

227
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 1: knows how improbable it is that he got back after

228
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:49,679
Speaker 1: a tough season to two vindicate what happened last year

229
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 1: at this stage, but he seems thrilled and about as

230
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 1: confident as can be for him. Right, but often, but

231
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,319
Speaker 1: he's very edgy, very often in these do you think

232
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: I don't find him to I feel like if Brady

233
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 1: has mastered anything at these events that can sweep other

234
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 1: players away, that he has seemed pretty a common on

235
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 1: top of it. To me, this is gonna sound like

236
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 1: just Dan being better about the Patriots. But I honestly

237
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 1: do believe why Brady might seem so laid back is

238
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 1: what are like? What are the stakes for Tom Brady

239
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 1: and the Patriots? Obviously winning the Super Bowl? Yes, But

240
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 1: if they win, does it teach us anything we didn't

241
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: already know about the quarterback, the coach, the team. It's

242
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,439
Speaker 1: the greatest quarterback and the greatest coach arguably the greatest

243
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: team ever. If they lose, well, well they made it

244
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 1: back to another Super Bowl. He doesn't really have anything

245
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 1: he needs to prove to anybody anymore. And I feel

246
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 1: like that's different from even uh, the Atlanta super Bow.

247
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:45,719
Speaker 1: I feel like that was maybe when they had the

248
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 1: great comeback against Atlanta. To me, that that kind of

249
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 1: settled any lingering doubt about anything about Belichick or Brady.

250
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 1: Where are we at now in terms of steaks for

251
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,959
Speaker 1: the Patriots. I hear what you're saying, and that seems fair,

252
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 1: But I think he would look at it like I'm

253
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 1: a lifestyle pioneer and I'm trying to prove you can

254
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 1: do something at almost two years old. You're probably right,

255
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,439
Speaker 1: but just looking at it from a brand standpoint, No,

256
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,960
Speaker 1: I think he really thinks I'm doing something that's going

257
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 1: to help other athletes in twenty years do this. And

258
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,959
Speaker 1: then even when you're watching Bill Belichick there he looks

259
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: so he looks genuinely happy, which is which is weird. Yeah,

260
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 1: And you see him at every other press conference during

261
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 1: the entire year so annoyed at every single question, and

262
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 1: then at this event like he actually does smile. And

263
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 1: I know that that's like a that's an annoying thing

264
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 1: that people keep track of how many times he smiled.

265
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 1: But some of those smiles are actually genuine, which is

266
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 1: strange to me, and Gronks like breaking down in saying

267
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 1: dance moves just makes me feel like he's feeling good.

268
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 1: His body feels good. And and to answer your thing

269
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 1: on Brady, to use his words, he's saying now like

270
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 1: he realized just like life isn't about piling up those

271
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 1: super bowls are proving where you are, I guess, but

272
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 1: that it's just the experience, that your life is an

273
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 1: accumulation of experiences and that's really all that matters. Are

274
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 1: those are those moments and what what is a greater

275
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 1: experience for him than the one like he experienced in

276
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 1: Kansas City And you saw him act like a kid

277
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 1: in that moment, and I think to share that with

278
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: this particular team, he's going to enjoy that experience and

279
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a rough one if they lose it,

280
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 1: but he's gonna enjoy it. I'm gonna stop you with

281
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 1: one thing. I hear you. He he has been reflective

282
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 1: and showing all those qualities. But what a way to

283
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: slow play everyone, including the Rams, to act like it

284
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 1: doesn't matter to Tom Brady. I can't think of anyone

285
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 1: who has a bitter more bitter pill in their mouth

286
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 1: from last year's game less than a year ago than

287
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 1: Tom Brady and the way that went down. I think

288
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 1: he absolutely wants this as much as any other game.

289
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 1: He's both of those things can be true. I mean,

290
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:55,960
Speaker 1: then they're both true. But I mean, you gotta be

291
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 1: giving me a break with this. He's someone looking back

292
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 1: on his life that he's three you stage, he's looking back.

293
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's how I think about my

294
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 1: life now. Is that like the only thing to me

295
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 1: that really matters is like accumulating those thirty seconds or

296
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 1: maybe it's a day, those moments that mean something to you.

297
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 1: And he knows enough about himself that he's in that position.

298
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 1: We're talking about a quarterback who has described losing as

299
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,760
Speaker 1: a quality of life issue. He really believes that that

300
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 1: his life is worse if he loses, and his life

301
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 1: is I mean, he's married to a supermodel. It makes together,

302
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 1: by the way that for a professional athlete that losing

303
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 1: is a quality life issue. I think that way, it

304
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 1: doesn't make him. But I don't know. Zero worship week

305
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 1: for Brady and legend worship week, Well, here, he's not

306
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 1: that different than here. He is because he's experienced things

307
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 1: no football player has ever come. So how about, ever,

308
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 1: somebody else gets to experience it, right, I mean, I'm

309
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 1: just saying he's the best. No one's ever been to

310
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: their ninth super Bowl at forty one years. No one's

311
00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 1: had all those wins, one's had all those losses like he's.

312
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 1: He's been able to have this experience in so many

313
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 1: different ways for himself, and so it's nice, I'm sure

314
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 1: for him to be able to have that luxury. And

347
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,239
Speaker 1: you talk to Amazon. Little Nicole Robie Coleman, who of

348
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,480
Speaker 1: course was involved in one of the most famous plays

349
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:09,159
Speaker 1: of the decade, uh, the non call. Uh. He got fined,

350
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 1: and not only did he not get called for you know,

351
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,959
Speaker 1: past interference, he also got fined for unnecessary roughness west

352
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,880
Speaker 1: on the play that costs the Saints essentially a shot

353
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,240
Speaker 1: at the Super Bowl. And then he gets to Super

354
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 1: Bowl Week and he's the guy that gets roped into

355
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 1: uh making the first controversial statement uh quote unquote about

356
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:33,280
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, UH saying that ages quote taking a toll

357
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:35,480
Speaker 1: on the quarterback. If you watch the tape, he's not

358
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 1: the same guy, uh that he was earlier in his career. Uh.

359
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:43,439
Speaker 1: And then something interesting and Opening Night happened, which was

360
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,160
Speaker 1: I was watching the telecast and less Need is at

361
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 1: the dais for NFL Network, and UM and you clearly

362
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 1: less as a little annoyed. They're talking about Coleman's comments,

363
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 1: and they're like, well, now we have Dion with Nickel

364
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 1: Robie Coleman, let's listen. So less Need is his boss

365
00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 1: is listening to him to see, don't say anything stupid.

366
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:05,440
Speaker 1: And this is how Coleman walked back those comments. The

367
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 1: only thing I said was his age is the anything

368
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,160
Speaker 1: that changed from from now to here. And I feel

369
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 1: like his his his skills and his his arm is

370
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 1: still strong. He's still a goal He's still a legend.

371
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,479
Speaker 1: That's what I want to get across elsewhere in media Night.

372
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 1: Anybody have anything else? Yeah, I thought he nailed it,

373
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 1: Like his analysis was the best analysis I've heard from

374
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 1: anyone on Tom Brady all year. And then he had

375
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 1: to walk back because he's afraid of Tom Brady. Yeah.

376
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 1: It like Michael Brocker said the same thing. We're afraid

377
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 1: of being the story, which the team obviously the Rams

378
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,640
Speaker 1: probably pulled him aside, like bro pipe down, we don't

379
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,640
Speaker 1: need that in the on the Bolton board. Michael Brocker

380
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,919
Speaker 1: said the same thing last night. He said he's not

381
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,199
Speaker 1: the same at forty two. He added a year to

382
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,879
Speaker 1: his age as he has a twenty four. It's like

383
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 1: that that's his obvious or that's a great prediction and

384
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 1: he's talking about next year. Gronk had his own riser.

385
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 1: It's a cast system Opening Night, where your human value

386
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 1: is kind of judged by whether or not they give

387
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 1: you the riser. Gronk gets a riser. He's a future

388
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer. He's a legend. Uh, we have this

389
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 1: sound from Gronk key, but he had He didn't want

390
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: to talk about retirement. There's a lot of speculation this

391
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:13,920
Speaker 1: is gonna be his final game on Sunday. He didn't

392
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 1: want to talk about that. But he is still a guy.

393
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 1: Gronk likes the party. Oh yeah, we got Shacks fun

394
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,439
Speaker 1: house Friday night. And who says I'm not going to

395
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 1: his party? Hit up Shack tell him I'll be there, baby.

396
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 1: I bet he'll get a little little crazy, a little excited.

397
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 1: We had a good time together. I'll probably be on

398
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,359
Speaker 1: his shoulders again. I mean, it's just two days before

399
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. I'll probably be there until five am.

400
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 1: Speaking of Shaq, he's gonna be on Super Bowl today Thursday,

401
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:47,359
Speaker 1: scheduled guest. We're gonna talk to Shaquille O'Neal. What's super

402
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: Bowl today? I don't know. It's starting tomorrow. Hypothetically that

403
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:55,520
Speaker 1: we're involved with um Brady. By the way, circling back

404
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:59,400
Speaker 1: to Brady, he told Jeff Darlington, our former NFL media colleague,

405
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 1: that they're zero chance that he retires after the Super Bowl.

406
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 1: Speaking of overplayed media stories and things getting hammered into

407
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 1: the ground, Mark, Sean McVeigh made the mistake of telling

408
00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 1: Peter King, what, yeah, the little nugget that you know,

409
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 1: Belichick and I we've exchanged texts, And then by the

410
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:20,880
Speaker 1: time which that happened, and it's kind of intriguing yet

411
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,440
Speaker 1: not shocking because they're in a small fraternity of people

412
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,560
Speaker 1: that respect each other. And he watched the Rams Vikings

413
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 1: game from earlier in the year Belichick and said, hey,

414
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 1: think your team's explosive, but it turns into this thing

415
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:32,399
Speaker 1: where everyone's saying, oh, you guys are best friends and

416
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 1: they're rough on the stage together. And even the look

417
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 1: on Belichick's faces like he probably doesn't text anyone more

418
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 1: than like twice a month, or something like are you

419
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 1: suddenly pen pals from embarrassed? He wanted it gone. He

420
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,840
Speaker 1: wanted that was a rookie mistake, a Super Bowl mistake.

421
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 1: You don't tell anybody anything interesting, especially earlier in the week.

422
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 1: I liked his bomber jacket though, by the way, which

423
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,639
Speaker 1: was amazing to see him in the bomber jacket and

424
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 1: jeans next to Belichicks and the White Snakes. Yeah, hey,

425
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,959
Speaker 1: do you guys know that Sean mcveigh's thirty three. I

426
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:09,880
Speaker 1: hadn't heard that. But how old is Bill Belichick? He's

427
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:15,159
Speaker 1: half the age? Oh my god, we should talk about that. Uh.

428
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,919
Speaker 1: Tom Brady's forty one, forty two. And as we know,

429
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 1: the hashtag bet against us um slogan got thrown back

430
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 1: in the throne of sleeves his face and people rejected it,

431
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: so they had to cook up a new slogan ahead

432
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 1: of the Super Bowl. Greg and Tom Brady and the

433
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,440
Speaker 1: going away party before they got on the plane to Atlanta,

434
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 1: was happy to try to get a new viral marketing

435
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 1: scheme off the ground after the horrendous embarrassment of bet

436
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 1: against us. We're excited. I hope you guys are excited.

437
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,639
Speaker 1: And as that said, let's let him here and all

438
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 1: the way down to Atlanta. We're still here. We're still here.

439
00:23:56,119 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 1: We're still here, We're still here. We're are still here?

440
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 1: All right? Oh yeah, Brandy to paint a picture. He

441
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 1: after he finishes this this chant, he tosses the mic

442
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 1: to Zolak, who drops it. But Zok is so smitten

443
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 1: by the we're still here chance and he goes, oh yeah,

444
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,359
Speaker 1: you could probably hear us right now, Scotts bigger than it.

445
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 1: You could fit like I think Greg west Mark and

446
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 1: Colleen inside of Zola's body, so I don't want Tom

447
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:30,920
Speaker 1: too much. Um, so they go we're still here, which

448
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: is almost greg a tont Let's just be honest to people,

449
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:35,920
Speaker 1: all the people that the millions of people that don't

450
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 1: want the Patriots here. It goes beyond like some type

451
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,359
Speaker 1: of like mobilizing battle cry and more just like f

452
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:46,200

Speaker 1: season that they were finally gone and we talked about

458
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:04,880
Speaker 1: it at a million times. So the fact they're here

459
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 1: is like the annoyance level is at an all time high.

460
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 1: I feel like, yeah, it's Patriot season. Um, Greg, you

461
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 1: are you like to go to some of the fancy

462
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:17,200
Speaker 1: pants um media events and rub elbows with the Peter

463
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:19,439
Speaker 1: Kings of the world. Will you be at the Roger

464
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 1: Goodell UH press conference tomorrow? When is that? I don't know,

465
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,600
Speaker 1: but that's when they're going to address if we don't

466
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 1: have anything to do at the time. I'll go it's

467
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: right in this That's what I mean. I feel like

468
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 1: that's right up Rosatal's alley. That that's when the NFL

469
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:39,320
Speaker 1: will finally, at last potentially address the blown call from

470
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:41,439
Speaker 1: the NFC Championship game, which is this is the story

471
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:45,439
Speaker 1: Greg that's been picking up traction that the NFL. Obviously,

472
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:50,159
Speaker 1: Sean Payton immediately after the game had stated that he

473
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 1: had made a call to Ron river On, the VP

474
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 1: of Officiating, who said they blew the call, but we

475
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 1: have not heard anything from the league, and Benjamin Watson

476
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 1: on Twitter expressed frustration with that, and you've seen that

477
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 1: pop up in different places. The expectation is that Goodell

478
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 1: will address it on Wednesday. What's he gonna says, It's

479
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 1: I think it's stale by now, by Tuesday of Super

480
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:21,159
Speaker 1: Bowl week, I think it's stale. And according to a

481
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:26,120
Speaker 1: Patriots fan, I'm sure I would say I would say

482
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 1: two days ago it sort of started getting stale. And yeah,

483
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 1: people people have moved on because every it's already had

484
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 1: kind of the counter argument, which is, like, wait, the

485
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,960
Speaker 1: the NFL admits that they're wrong all the time. What

486
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:40,400
Speaker 1: is that going to make any difference. They've they've said

487
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 1: that a million different times, and of course he's gonna

488
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 1: say it tomorrow. It's most it's one of the more

489
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 1: boring controversies because it's not like anyone is denying, but

490
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,440
Speaker 1: no one's denying. It's such an obvious call. There's nothing

491
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,159
Speaker 1: to say about it, like I think, of course, of

492
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 1: course they called the coach before he even got to

493
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:01,040
Speaker 1: the press conference. Instead it was the wrong call, and

494
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 1: then he announced that they said it. Well, I mean,

495
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:05,520
Speaker 1: I don't know who you're you're not preaching to me.

496
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 1: I'm saying if you read, people around the game are

497
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 1: surprised and annoyed that the NFL has not publicly owned

498
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:13,679
Speaker 1: up to this. Yeah, I would say at the end

499
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 1: of last weekend of the weekend, but it's kind of

500
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: passed and no, I don't act, don't ask about it,

501
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 1: and he'll say it was the wrong call, and what

502
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 1: is it gon, What is that going to help anything.

503
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,080
Speaker 1: It's not gonna change anything right now, but I guess

504
00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,479
Speaker 1: going forward it will. Everything that he says carries more

505
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,639
Speaker 1: weight when he says it. I will be interested to

506
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 1: hear what he says about what they're going to do

507
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 1: in terms of changing replaying. I mean, that's absolutely on

508
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 1: the table and that's like the conversation. I think that's

509
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:39,240
Speaker 1: going to dominate the owners meetings when we're there. Um

510
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:44,639
Speaker 1: And in other news, uh Seth Wickersham of espn UM

511
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 1: dropped a long, long, long, long feature on the inside

512
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,439
Speaker 1: story of the Cleveland Browns over the last few years.

513
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 1: It's centered mostly Mark Sesssler around uh well, covered a

514
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 1: lot of things, but kind of the bigger picture was

515
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 1: the Haslem's Jimmy and d Haslem, what their effect has

516
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:07,159
Speaker 1: been on the organization and the their inability to kind

517
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,639
Speaker 1: of get out of out of their way. I figured

518
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 1: you read that with a lot of interest. What were

519
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:16,680
Speaker 1: your thoughts about the piece from Wickersham? First on tone,

520
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 1: because I think Wickersham specializes and I every time he

521
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 1: writes something, it's like you have to click into it

522
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 1: and cancel your morning plans to check it out. He

523
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 1: drops a bombs and their long researched you know, slow

524
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 1: brewing reports with lots of sourcing, and they are we're

525
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 1: almost like as fetching is like a short detective novel

526
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 1: because you're gonna get facts and stuff that you've never

527
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 1: thought you'd get, and I thought he delivered um on

528
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,920
Speaker 1: some accounts with the Browns one, but in contrast to

529
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 1: the Patriots one that came out a season ago that

530
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 1: seemed almost perfectly timed to amp up the controversy around

531
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 1: the Patriots and tweak them just in time for their

532
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,520
Speaker 1: stretch run. With the Browns one. To me, and this

533
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:00,360
Speaker 1: is not I'm not saying this justice a brown fan,

534
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 1: it felt a little bit ill timed, like it could

535
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 1: have been something as that would have been a total

536
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 1: heat seeker that came out before the season. Um, it

537
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 1: didn't really capture I thought some of the changes that

538
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 1: have happened when you get a franchise quarterback, it effectively,

539
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 1: uh put you ill at ease if you're a Browns

540
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 1: fan around Brown's ownership. But I don't think that's a

541
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 1: There were details that were new. I don't think it

542
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:26,479
Speaker 1: was a tremendous revelation that ownership, even by their own words,

543
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 1: have been an issue in Cleveland. There is one tangible

544
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 1: difference that they did mention at the end of the

545
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,640
Speaker 1: article that for the first time ever, you don't have

546
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:37,480
Speaker 1: a coach and GM both reporting to Haslem at least

547
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 1: in terms of the ORC chart. It's the first time

548
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 1: the GM is hired a coach, it's the first time

549
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 1: the team seems to have buy in with the coach

550
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 1: from inside, and the coach will be reporting to John Dorsey.

551
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 1: So there, I guess coming out of this season, there's

552
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 1: a lot to cling onto and be hopeful if you're

553
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 1: supporting the supporter of the Browns. And this article in

554
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 1: the past would have sent me into a dark mood,

555
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:00,960
Speaker 1: and I kind of just said, fine, I'm moving on.

556
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 1: So like I was like kind of dark, but not

557
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 1: as not really and honestly, like I thought there was

558
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 1: really good research in it, but it's like you can't

559
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 1: all like right, it was sort of pre all last

560
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:16,960
Speaker 1: season and you can't really wipe away. I think the

561
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 1: momentum going forward, they still have to be better than

562
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 1: seven eight and one. This is one of the best

563
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 1: reporters in the business, and like you said, he's very

564
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:27,040
Speaker 1: well sourced. I just thought most of the article was

565
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 1: like two thousand seventeen, two thousand eighteen. It didn't bring

566
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 1: much new to me, and I think they played up

567
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,480
Speaker 1: the pot shots and the sensationalism a little bit too.

568
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 1: Like I don't think we needed the hashtag about the

569
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 1: porn accident or whatever like that that was solely in

570
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 1: there just to take a shot at the brownsil They

571
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 1: it was a hashtag DP for dog Pound and they

572
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 1: projected it on a screen in the room and it

573
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,840
Speaker 1: was like at the complex at the Brown's headquarters for

574
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 1: like twenty minutes, and you know, everybody apparently got a

575
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 1: big kick out of it, and you gotta put it

576
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 1: in a twot now. I guess I would argue just

577
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:11,200
Speaker 1: a little more clarity that the hashtag lead to videos

578
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 1: and photos being projected on this giant wall in the

579
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:16,560
Speaker 1: Brown's facility of an X rated nature. Um, which is

580
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 1: I think it's a funny little flavor color. Yeah, And

581
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 1: I don't know what I took away from the article

582
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,120
Speaker 1: was at the timing of it's perfect because it's like,

583
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 1: of all these the terrible things that have happened with

584
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: the Browns, well where the story ends is and it

585
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 1: might be okay now because now you have Dorsey who

586
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 1: has done a nice job so far, You obviously have

587
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: the young star quarterback, and maybe just maybe the Haslems

588
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 1: are getting out of the way now. Um, so that

589
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 1: that's the positive spin of it, the if if I

590
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 1: was the Brown spends the one. The one thing that

591
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 1: I take away was, God, I hope, I hope things

592
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,720
Speaker 1: are okay now, because there's a lot of evidence that

593
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 1: he might not be able to stay out of the

594
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:56,720
Speaker 1: way because we don't have there's always in the next chapter.

595
00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: And if the next chapter doesn't continue to build off

596
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 1: this bree uh positive one year, you know, buffeted by

597
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 1: twenty awful years before his hands on he's not involved

598
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:08,800
Speaker 1: with the Flying Pilot j in the way he used

599
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 1: to be. So the Browns are his baby, Yeah, they're

600
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 1: his baby. And will he be able to stay out

601
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: of the way ultimately, Yeah, it's a question. It felt

602
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 1: like the whole thing was just about the Haslums being

603
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,479
Speaker 1: new to ownership and all of the mistakes that they

604
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:23,880
Speaker 1: sort of made along the way. Two things kind of

605
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,960
Speaker 1: stood out to me in this one. One that I

606
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:30,720
Speaker 1: kind of felt bad for Ray Farmer in in this piece,

607
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 1: just listening to the fact that, yeah, he didn't even

608
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 1: interview for the GM job, and after Joe Banner and

609
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 1: Michael Lombardi were out, it was just like Jimmy Hasm

610
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 1: was like, Hey, you're hired, and so he kind of

611
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 1: knew from the jump that he was going to be

612
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 1: him and Petton, We're going to be the ones kind

613
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 1: of blamed for everything going wrong. That and then also

614
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 1: on top of it that Jimmy haslum seems so impulsive

615
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 1: with his decisions and he doesn't have a whole lot

616
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 1: of patients at all, but he did have the patience

617
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,200
Speaker 1: to watch you jack and go one and thirty one

618
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 1: like that. Well, the fact there were there were pretty

619
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,280
Speaker 1: interesting details, and it wasn't as salient because they finished

620
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:09,520
Speaker 1: the season strong, but if they had finished third, three

621
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 1: and thirteen, then it would have felt better. Tim and

622
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 1: the fact that he was the only one that wanted

623
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 1: Hugh Jackson and four other people in the front office

624
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 1: wanted Sean McDermott. That was a new fact. And really

625
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 1: throughout the article that haslm was really the one guiding

626
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:27,320
Speaker 1: all of these hirings and firings that the GM didn't

627
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 1: have much say to me was telling and and it

628
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 1: does would worry me about the future. Pattern cannot continue

629
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 1: and you have to wonder if there if there is

630
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 1: a growth pattern to becoming an owner where you hit

631
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 1: a point where you say it's time to listen to

632
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 1: football people and football people alone. Uh, we'll see. That's

633
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 1: that's my point. We've been talking about that very thing

634
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 1: on our podcast for three or four years. But it

635
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 1: was yeah, and we it was maybe even a little

636
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:53,960
Speaker 1: worse than you would have thought, just because you got

637
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: some of the details of like the capricious nature of

638
00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:00,200
Speaker 1: the you know, the way it happened with Farmer or

639
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 1: even Joe Banner, like the way they were fired, just

640
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 1: kind of blindsided showing up to dinner and having just

641
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:08,720
Speaker 1: the whole thing. I talked to uh Wickersham last night actually,

642
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:12,160

00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:45,560
Speaker 1: It was a half a beat behind at the end there.

669
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:47,759
Speaker 1: But what about the how about the tone of it?

670
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,759
Speaker 1: How about the tone of the singing? I can tell

671
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 1: you've been doing a lot of live television work, because here,

672
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:55,759

674
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,640

675
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:05,440
Speaker 1: a beat behind, but then you find it. Remember you

676
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:07,839
Speaker 1: get one more chance at the end of the segment ends.

677
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,840
Speaker 1: Here we go real quick. Let's spend through this Greg

678
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:14,840
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame UM voting. The announcement comes at the

679
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 1: end of this week. You love that event. Who's going

680
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 1: into the hall? You think I have no idea, I've

681
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 1: I've done a power ranking. All right, let's hear it.

682
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:27,399
Speaker 1: Ed Reid number one, Tony Gonzalez number two, and I've

683
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:30,239
Speaker 1: got Chance Bailey number three. He's got to be right.

684
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,919
Speaker 1: One of the defining corners of who's this Who would

685
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:37,399
Speaker 1: be somebody that you know could sneak in, somebody that's

686
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:40,439
Speaker 1: been about Isaac Bruce. Isaac Bruce and I thought Steve

687
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:44,480
Speaker 1: Hutchinson former Seahawks and Vikings guard. It's a Patriots week here,

688
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,400
Speaker 1: Tay Law and Richard Seymour in their the final fifteen.

689
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:51,320
Speaker 1: Seymour might be Tay Law, I think could have a chance.

690
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,000
Speaker 1: I feel like they just it's not fair, but they

691
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:57,400
Speaker 1: feel like the Patriots are underrepresented. Had that big moment

692
00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:01,239
Speaker 1: in the first Rams Patriots about Gil Brands are well,

693
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 1: He's definitely in the correct. Now they have to they

694
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:06,840
Speaker 1: already knew that. Now they have to approve it and

695
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:12,319
Speaker 1: to improve it. And again, wait, who would who would say, actually, no, Gil,

696
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 1: we've changed, we will not approve it. They have this

697
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:19,120
Speaker 1: Veterans Committee thing, and you have to get of the vote,

698
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 1: I believe on Saturday when they vote, and there is

699
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:24,799
Speaker 1: one and it it's only been this process for five

700
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:26,960
Speaker 1: years and there is one guy who made it this

701
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 1: far and then got shut down. Two guys. Then I

702
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 1: think you're right. I think technically it did make it

703
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,319
Speaker 1: this far one time. Pat, It's not It's not a

704
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:41,920
Speaker 1: total lock um, all right. Also, Ian Rapp Report reports

705
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:44,080
Speaker 1: that the Redskins are planning to be without Alex Smith

706
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 1: in en Connie. Give me something quick there. Oh hey,

707
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:49,520
Speaker 1: I don't know what they're gonna do. Maybe they're going

708
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 1: to do I don't know, because it's like I saw

709
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:54,040
Speaker 1: that brace too, and I know you were talking about

710
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:57,120
Speaker 1: it on the podcast and that that looks horrendous just

711
00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,840
Speaker 1: to to to see it in person like that or

712
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 1: just seeing a picture of it. But you don't even

713
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 1: know if he's going to play next year, so you

714
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,760
Speaker 1: kind of have to plan and maybe draft a prospect

715
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:12,560
Speaker 1: and bring somebody else in. Maybe Joe Flacco is there. Maybe.

716
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,239
Speaker 1: I mean, I know, I know you've mentioned Nick Fole

717
00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,960
Speaker 1: so many times, but that's the same division as the Eagles.

718
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:21,760
Speaker 1: I I can't imagine that that would end up happening. Alright,

719
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:25,240
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown has not closed the door on a return

720
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:28,239
Speaker 1: to the Steelers that it costs also, according uh to

721
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 1: rap Sheet mark, you want him out of the division, right,

722
00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:31,960
Speaker 1: get him out of here? Sure? I mean, it's the

723
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,120
Speaker 1: second year in a row that the Steelers have laced

724
00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 1: us with an offseason storyline based around a star player

725
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:40,480
Speaker 1: that's going to have four to five articles written, and

726
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 1: we're like, there really is a time that we can

727
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:44,560
Speaker 1: just find out what will happen here? Why not? Why

728
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 1: do we need to mix up with this until we

729
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 1: just know it's gonna happen at some point Cam Newton.

730
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 1: Cam Newton undergoes shoulder surgery. Uh, maybe not as serious

731
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:59,840
Speaker 1: as was initially feared. Uh do we have any updates

732
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:01,719
Speaker 1: Cam Newton? Are they gonna be able to start the

733
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,439
Speaker 1: season with their franchise passer? They say they'll he'll be

734
00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:08,239
Speaker 1: ready for O t s. But these offseason timetables are

735
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:11,839
Speaker 1: always overly optimistic, including the one that Cam Newton had

736
00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:14,279
Speaker 1: just two years ago for a similar surgery. But this

737
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:17,520
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like an Andrew Luck situation, which it doesn't.

738
00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 1: But it's a human body, you know, I do actually

739
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 1: will be bodies. It's a human body, and he will

740
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 1: be Okay. Nick Folks signs with the Arizona hot Shots

741
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 1: of It's happening, It's coming. Connie, what if somebody offered

742

748
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 1: about it, Well, either you're not materialistic or you don't

749
00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 1: need the money. I would love the money. The money

750
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 1: would be great, but I like the summer of Ganza

751
00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:10,920
Speaker 1: hosts two podcasts a week. How about that the money

752
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:14,759
Speaker 1: might not And um, finally, Greg, I know you are

753
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:18,200

00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 1: the health of Pat Patriot, who was senselessly cut down

755
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:26,760
Speaker 1: in his prime by Jets star nay legend Jamal Adams,

756
00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:30,560
Speaker 1: who tackled him from behind, leading to reports that Pat

757
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 1: Patriot the mascot was hospitalized, which was clearly floated by

758
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 1: the Patriots to make it a more serious minded story

759
00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 1: as they are wont to do. Uh. Turned out he

760
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,400

Speaker 1: Any updates on Pat Patriot, I mean no, no update

763
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,560
Speaker 1: on that, but he's in better shape than the Pro

764
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:57,919
Speaker 1: Bowl Trophy that Jason took a part. That was one

765
00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 1: of the defining moments so two thousand and eighteen season

766
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:04,960
Speaker 1: and one of the things that has made me most

767
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:08,520
Speaker 1: happy in this calendar year. It was an amazing It

768
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:11,759
Speaker 1: was such a perfect bow on what was an s

769
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,359
Speaker 1: sandwich of a year for Witten. So you don't, I don't.

770
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:16,279
Speaker 1: I'm not happy that it happened to him, but it

771
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,200
Speaker 1: is kind of perfect trophy part you can be happy for.

772
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,239
Speaker 1: That was just a funny moment. The fact that he

773
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 1: didn't know like what team Ricky Brown was on a

774
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 1: little it's on his helmet, he knows logo was on

775
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 1: his helmet. Poor When don't you feel bad room because

776
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:32,520
Speaker 1: he just clearly gets a little scrambled. And what Greg's

777
00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:35,560
Speaker 1: referring to is Ebrahm catches a touchdown of the Pro Bowl, which,

778
00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:38,239
Speaker 1: by the way, did anybody watch again? I watched about

779
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:40,319
Speaker 1: half of it. I was glued to it. Yeah, it

780
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:42,680
Speaker 1: didn't seem like anybody was really running. I would say

781
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,920
Speaker 1: the first NFL game I've seen where the line play

782
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:50,760
Speaker 1: between like eight or nine ten beefy men basically reminded

783
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:52,520
Speaker 1: me of when you're like in high school trying in

784
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 1: between classes just to get from one class to the next,

785
00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:59,960
Speaker 1: slowly dodging people. No major time are we allowed to talk?

786
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,600
Speaker 1: That's probably tied. Time to make this game go away? Mark?

787
00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:05,640
Speaker 1: Is it okay? Mark Brady shadow league figure? Can we

788
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:07,400
Speaker 1: say that it's okay to make the Pro Bowl go

789
00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:10,160
Speaker 1: away forever? I I think that we should keep the

790
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:12,640
Speaker 1: I think the Pro Bowl is great. I love the

791
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:15,839
Speaker 1: skills competition. I love like the obstacle tours, I love

792
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:21,200
Speaker 1: like dodgeball. The game is like like von Miller fire.

793
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:23,680
Speaker 1: They used him as a quarterback and his skills challenge

794
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:26,240
Speaker 1: that I enjoyed. I would like to see more defensive

795
00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:29,800
Speaker 1: linemen playing quarterback in situation. So Witten, Yeah, Patrick Mahomes

796
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:33,439
Speaker 1: threw a touchdown to uh Eric Ebron and and Witten said,

797
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:35,960
Speaker 1: you know that was a connection that worked all year.

798
00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:38,720
Speaker 1: It's been a guy all year. This isn't a position

799
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:40,839
Speaker 1: I usually take. But isn't this one of those things

800
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,480
Speaker 1: where we just say, hey, it's meant for twelve year olds,

801
00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:45,480
Speaker 1: not adults, and maybe we can just look the other

802
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:49,040
Speaker 1: one million people still watched it. Let's do that. Yeah,

803
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 1: it's for twelve year olds. I don't think I realized

804
00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:53,680
Speaker 1: there are movies that aren't meant for me and people

805
00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:56,319
Speaker 1: watched them. That's what's happening in news. In fact, that's

806
00:42:56,360 --> 00:43:04,160
Speaker 1: the end of odds and ends hit it. Hey, everybody

807
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:08,759
Speaker 1: tell your friends odds and and ah see you did

808
00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:11,920
Speaker 1: an account that you started a beat later, so you didn't.

809
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:15,040
Speaker 1: It's timed, weird. I think it's a it's an oddly

810
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:19,880
Speaker 1: timed song. And that's his tools, that piano. It's the

811
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:22,440
Speaker 1: same every time. I don't know. I think you guys

812
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:26,840
Speaker 1: might be changing it. That would be if we changed

813
00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:29,400
Speaker 1: it by like a second, like four tenths of a

814
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:32,080
Speaker 1: second every time you did it. And now mark more

841
00:44:56,840 --> 00:45:00,919
Speaker 1: about uh subplots of people aren't talking about. We call

842
00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:06,279
Speaker 1: this seg what you people don't realize, And this is

843
00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:10,719
Speaker 1: where we tried to be um as humanly unlikable as

844
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:15,800
Speaker 1: possible in getting across a football point that perhaps others

845
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:18,080
Speaker 1: haven't spoke of. That's just a normal segment for me.

846
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:22,200
Speaker 1: That is true, Greg, So why don't you get us

847
00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:26,080
Speaker 1: going and let the master uh teach the rest of us.

848
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:33,919
Speaker 1: What you clowns haven't thought about when looking at this

849
00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:39,800
Speaker 1: game is that Jared Goff has not faced a defense

850
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:43,520
Speaker 1: that gets multiple for quite a while, that he hasn't

851
00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 1: had to solve the types of problems that the Patriots

852
00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:49,959
Speaker 1: defense is going to present to him on Super Bowl

853
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:53,440
Speaker 1: Sunday for quite a while, and the last few times

854
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:56,080
Speaker 1: that he did against Detroit, who really did a nice

855
00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:59,440
Speaker 1: job mixing up things, certainly Chicago, where New England doesn't

856
00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:03,600
Speaker 1: have the same personnel, but also Philadelphia who did some

857
00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:07,720
Speaker 1: similar aspects with their defense in terms of movement before

858
00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 1: the snap and the way they were blitzing. This is

859
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:14,680
Speaker 1: a very creative, crazy Patriots defense up front where you

860
00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:17,480
Speaker 1: don't know where the pass rush is gonna come from.

861
00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:20,440
Speaker 1: Dallas didn't do that at all, and Goff didn't have

862
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:23,040
Speaker 1: to do much in that game period. He did did

863
00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:24,480
Speaker 1: it well what he had to do, and I was

864
00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:26,440
Speaker 1: surprised when I look back at New Orleans was a

865
00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:30,080
Speaker 1: very basic past defense where you pretty much knew what

866
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:35,360
Speaker 1: they were gonna do snap after. I think you guys

867
00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:37,960
Speaker 1: look at the Patriots defense like this is somehow going

868
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:40,040
Speaker 1: to be an easier test to New Orleans. But Bill

869
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:43,280
Speaker 1: Belichick with a week off, forget about it, you clowns,

870
00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:47,320
Speaker 1: didn't understand good idea by the Saints to not employ

871
00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:49,880
Speaker 1: any multiple elements to their defense in the most critical

872
00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:55,279
Speaker 1: franchise history and years. Yeah, I mean to the to

873
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,479
Speaker 1: that point. I mean, it's not like other teams haven't

874
00:46:57,480 --> 00:47:01,399
Speaker 1: tried that. I just feel like in these playoffs, this

875
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:05,120
Speaker 1: last little run that Goff has had where he's played

876
00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:09,360
Speaker 1: well San Francisco, Arizona, Dallas, and to a lesser extent,

877
00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:11,840
Speaker 1: New Orleans, which did a good job against him overall,

878
00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:14,080
Speaker 1: but it was Basically they lined up and you knew

879
00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:16,680
Speaker 1: what they were doing. They didn't present as many things

880
00:47:16,719 --> 00:47:20,160
Speaker 1: that Goff had to solve before and after the snap

881
00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:23,440
Speaker 1: that the Patriots will. And I think if that's an area,

882
00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:25,840
Speaker 1: there's an area of the Patriots want to attack, that's it.

883
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:29,839
Speaker 1: Golf Golf's brain. Golf's brain. They're attacking his brain. I mean,

884
00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:32,600
Speaker 1: he's a twenty four year old. Hasn't played that to

885
00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:35,040
Speaker 1: pare years ago, to not know that the sun rose

886
00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:41,480
Speaker 1: in the east, so ample ground to work with here. Um, okay,

887
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:47,080
Speaker 1: what you people do not realize look on your face,

888
00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:50,359
Speaker 1: you know what. I'm channeling my mom because she calls

889
00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:53,960
Speaker 1: you people all the time. Well, you people don't realize

890
00:47:54,200 --> 00:48:00,200
Speaker 1: is James Devlin is the most important running back in

891
00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:05,719
Speaker 1: this game. He's the most back in this game. Oh oh,

892
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:08,759
Speaker 1: what you don't think are important? Look at look at

893
00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:11,759
Speaker 1: what you people are thinking. Right, So judge right now.

894
00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:16,360
Speaker 1: It's not about Sony Michelle or James White or Todd Gurley.

895
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:18,760
Speaker 1: All right, it's not about C. J. Anderson. It's about

896
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:23,640
Speaker 1: James Devlin because without him, the Patriots do not run

897
00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:26,799
Speaker 1: the ball anywhere near is effective that they've been doing

898
00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:29,600
Speaker 1: the last four games, they're averaging over a hundred and

899
00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:33,799
Speaker 1: eighty rushing yards per game, and that is because of

900
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 1: James Devlin. Devlin's amazing ability to block two open running

901
00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:42,040
Speaker 1: holes for whoever's on the field with him, for mostly

902
00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:44,839
Speaker 1: Sony Michelle. And look, you might be thinking, okay, but

903
00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:48,440
Speaker 1: teams know that they are going to run the ball

904
00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:51,800
Speaker 1: when Sony Michelle and James Devlon are on the field together.

905
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:54,640
Speaker 1: It doesn't even matter. They still can run the ball.

906
00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 1: They're still effective running the ball when that happens. Look,

907
00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:01,000
Speaker 1: the Patriots they kept the ball away from the Chiefs

908
00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:04,319
Speaker 1: for twenty three minutes, longer than than the Chiefs had

909
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:06,839
Speaker 1: the ball. Look, that is all they had to do

910
00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:09,719
Speaker 1: to keep Patrick Mahomes off the field was run the

911
00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:12,279
Speaker 1: ball effectively. And that's exactly what they're going to do

912
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:16,440
Speaker 1: in this game too. It's you know, it's cute, Colleen

913
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:20,600
Speaker 1: that you think you've figured out why the Patriots offense

914
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:23,880
Speaker 1: works so well on the ground. But what you don't realize.

915
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,920
Speaker 1: Tell me, tell me what don't I realize? Dan, You people,

916
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:31,400
Speaker 1: but specifically Colleen, don't realize that it is reductive to

917
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:35,200
Speaker 1: just say James Devlin is the guy, because what you

918
00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:41,440
Speaker 1: don't realize is that this offensive line. Do you understand

919
00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:45,799
Speaker 1: how absurd it is the biggest miracle of the Patriots,

920
00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:49,080
Speaker 1: not the forties thousand year old quarterback or the mean

921
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:52,120
Speaker 1: old grump wizard coach or any of the other greatness

922
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:55,319
Speaker 1: around the Patriots in this dynasty. Did you know that

923
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,960
Speaker 1: this offensive line? No, you don't know. I know you

924
00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:02,719
Speaker 1: don't you realize that their their cap hit is less

925
00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:07,919
Speaker 1: than fifteen million dollars the entire line. That's absurd. That's

926
00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:11,239
Speaker 1: that's that's insane that they are this good and it's

927
00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:15,160
Speaker 1: a collection of mid and late round picks and and

928
00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:16,799
Speaker 1: you know, you know who gets a lot of love

929
00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:20,799
Speaker 1: for the offense. We hear that all the time. Hall

930
00:50:20,840 --> 00:50:24,359
Speaker 1: of Fame. And that's great, that's really great coming back

931
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:29,680
Speaker 1: next year, that's great that Dante will continue to coach forever.

932
00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:33,200
Speaker 1: But that is the miracle of this team that they collected.

933
00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:36,640
Speaker 1: Uh Trent Brown is a former seventh round pick, Joe

934
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:42,800
Speaker 1: Is a Tuny or Thuny is third round pick, Shack

935
00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:47,319
Speaker 1: Mason a fourth round pick, Marcus Cannon a fifth round pick.

936
00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:50,480
Speaker 1: They have a cap charge that is equal to Russell

937
00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:54,440
Speaker 1: o'kun period, and that is the secret that they've been

938
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:58,080
Speaker 1: able to They've been able to bury, uh, put all

939
00:50:58,120 --> 00:51:00,440
Speaker 1: this money elsewhere on this team. It's still have a

940
00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:02,600
Speaker 1: top flight offensive line. But you people don't realize is

941
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:05,799
Speaker 1: this game is one in there. You guys don't know

942
00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:08,720
Speaker 1: that I do. But now I'm teaching that you people

943
00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 1: don't have our research notes. James Devlin is an extension

944
00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:16,280
Speaker 1: of that. That was great. You guys have been dancing

945
00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:20,000
Speaker 1: all around this. But what Colleen especially doesn't know, and

946
00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:22,479
Speaker 1: the what and what the rest of you naive little

947
00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:26,880
Speaker 1: jack Keenes don't understand. Col doesn't know anything. Why is

948
00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:29,280
Speaker 1: this all of a sudden an attack on me? You people.

949
00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:33,040
Speaker 1: I'm done with you people. Welcome back. What you clowns,

950
00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:39,120
Speaker 1: what you naive little don't realize is the Patriots have

951
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:43,239
Speaker 1: a tell if this was poker, they have a dead giveaway.

952
00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:45,799
Speaker 1: Every time Sony Michelle is on the field, they run

953
00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:48,080
Speaker 1: the ball. He played thirty four snaps in the last

954
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:51,320
Speaker 1: game and ran the ball twenty nine times. This is

955
00:51:51,320 --> 00:51:54,520
Speaker 1: a giveaway. And just because the last two defenses weren't

956
00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:57,279
Speaker 1: good enough to take advantage of it. Wade Phillips, it's

957
00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:58,960
Speaker 1: one of the best defensive coordinators at all the time.

958
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:01,040
Speaker 1: This team is going to prepare aired. They already know

959
00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:03,640
Speaker 1: they're gearing up for the run. The Rams are gonna

960
00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:06,960
Speaker 1: stuff this running. I love what's coming on. I mean,

961
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:09,400
Speaker 1: I had no idea. I didn't realize that, but I

962
00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:12,719
Speaker 1: feel enriched having known that now the Patriots will be

963
00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:16,680
Speaker 1: one dimensional and easily combusted on. There's no there's no

964
00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:21,360
Speaker 1: other group like Michael Brocker's Dominican Sue and Aaron Donald

965
00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:25,040
Speaker 1: though that group that is the best beefy group in

966
00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:27,480
Speaker 1: the league. And what you people don't realize, they're playing

967
00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:29,520
Speaker 1: a little differently in the in the playoffs because in

968
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:31,879
Speaker 1: Dominican Sue and Donald aren't trying to make as make

969
00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:33,759
Speaker 1: as many big plays. They're staying in their lane and

970
00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:39,439
Speaker 1: stop in the run. Did you realize that that's um mark,

971
00:52:40,239 --> 00:52:44,759
Speaker 1: you little nerds five deep on a football opinion show.

972
00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:47,200
Speaker 1: I'm not going to even go there because all these

973
00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:51,160
Speaker 1: topics are so weather worn at this point, so much

974
00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:55,200
Speaker 1: erosion around this little rock formation of your little football opinions,

975
00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:58,520
Speaker 1: you high faluting nerds. I want to talk about the

976
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:00,719
Speaker 1: city that we're in, Atlanta, that we've only been here

977
00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:01,960
Speaker 1: for a couple of days. Where am I going to

978
00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:04,640
Speaker 1: eat dinner? Where am I going to drink beers? Where

979
00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:07,920
Speaker 1: is my materialism going to be shown in high ribbons

980
00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:10,200
Speaker 1: all over the sky as I spend the company's money

981
00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:15,279
Speaker 1: left and right. No, that just miles from here. In

982
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:21,480
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty nine, Samuel Jackson, the renowned actor, held the

983
00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:25,919
Speaker 1: father of Martin Luther King. Samuel L. Jackson, the first

984
00:53:25,920 --> 00:53:28,640
Speaker 1: person not to use the initial ever. Samuel L. Jackson

985
00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:32,439
Speaker 1: held the father of Martin Luther King hostage at more

986
00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:36,839
Speaker 1: House College as a student because he wanted a better curriculum.

987
00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:38,719
Speaker 1: And then he was kicked out of the school for

988
00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:41,760
Speaker 1: two years because they held a bunch of people hostage

989
00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:44,319
Speaker 1: in this building for hours on end. And then two

990
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:46,840
Speaker 1: years later they let him come back and finish his

991
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:50,480
Speaker 1: college education. All's fair there, but then also just a

992
00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:53,600
Speaker 1: couple more miles from here, way back in the day,

993
00:53:53,680 --> 00:53:57,560
Speaker 1: a sports nugget, Babe Ruth hit a home run in

994
00:53:57,600 --> 00:54:02,040
Speaker 1: a place called Constelon Park, Old Pons, which now is

995
00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:04,520
Speaker 1: inhabited by a Whole Foods. Where there is now a

996
00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:07,640
Speaker 1: whole food you can go buy your expensive dishes. Babe

997
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:10,520
Speaker 1: Ruth once hit a home run. I knew that none

998
00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:12,160
Speaker 1: of you were going to come up with that because

999
00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:13,960
Speaker 1: I was going to go offensive line too, and I

1000
00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:17,239
Speaker 1: was not. I had nothing left offensive line. I had

1001
00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:22,239
Speaker 1: no idea. What you don't realize as a baseball naive, Hey,

1002
00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:24,279
Speaker 1: I who worked at Baseball Weekly? It wasn't you. West

1003
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:29,359
Speaker 1: finished his career with the Braves, the Boston Braves. Well

1004
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:31,440
Speaker 1: do you know the name? He was? The team he

1005
00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:34,680
Speaker 1: faced when he was here in Atlanta hitting a home run?

1006
00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:38,280
Speaker 1: What you people don't realize? What what you little clowns

1007
00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:46,680
Speaker 1: don't realize that that was the home of the Atlanta Crackers. Really, yeah,

1008
00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:49,480
Speaker 1: it's problematic. I don't know if it referred might have

1009
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:54,359
Speaker 1: referred to uh in edible product, a snack. Probably it was.

1010
00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:56,279
Speaker 1: It was a tough It was a tough you know

1011
00:54:56,320 --> 00:55:00,520
Speaker 1: a couple of hundred years there for America. Yep, you

1012
00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:03,880
Speaker 1: people don't You don't realize is that Greg has a

1013
00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:08,680
Speaker 1: deep well of knowledge of American history. Well, there you go.

1014
00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:11,799
Speaker 1: That was the segment was fine. It was good, we

1015
00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:15,280
Speaker 1: had fun, solid. Sorry, I would have gotten pro ramsy

1016
00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:17,520
Speaker 1: mind if I knew it was all coming, if I

1017
00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:19,400
Speaker 1: thought we were maybe going we were all sort of

1018
00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:23,799
Speaker 1: I would say, what would be a good challenge for you,

1019
00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:25,359
Speaker 1: Greg the rest of the week is just to only

1020
00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:28,160
Speaker 1: talk about the Rams if you want to really stretch

1021
00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:29,879
Speaker 1: your legs a little, right, That's what I'm writing about.

1022
00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:32,399
Speaker 1: I didn't want to cover the Patriots, you know, give

1023
00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:35,280
Speaker 1: a little. Donte Fowler love the bell hop at the hotel,

1024
00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:39,760
Speaker 1: broke down the game for me. He had a Caribbean accident,

1025
00:55:39,840 --> 00:55:42,399
Speaker 1: came into my room, put down my food, and said,

1026
00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:46,480
Speaker 1: I'm a big Falcon fans. Patriots are in trouble. This

1027
00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:49,000
Speaker 1: game is played indoors, not in their home field where

1028
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:51,279
Speaker 1: they beat up on everyone. He thinks that the home

1029
00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:53,799
Speaker 1: field is is a big factor here and that the

1030
00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:55,840
Speaker 1: Rams are gonna win. Now what we're gonna make I

1031
00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:59,120
Speaker 1: like where he's coming from as well. Um, we are

1032
00:55:59,160 --> 00:56:02,840
Speaker 1: going to save our predictions for our Thursday night show.

Speaker 1: That will be the proper Super Bowl preview episode in

00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:18,640
Speaker 1: What what what are you saying that it's just on

00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:52,800
Speaker 1: all love and pound in her fist. That would be

1064
00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:59,040
Speaker 1: Ricky against Greg, scrappy. We can brutally take each other

1065
00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:02,440

1068
00:58:11,640 --> 00:58:15,200
Speaker 1: I were kicking around the idea of kicking around, let's

1069
00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:16,960
Speaker 1: see who could kick the longest field goal. And I'm

1070
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:20,240
Speaker 1: going to take down West because, uh cancer, it really

1071
00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:24,160
Speaker 1: took a pounding to his musculature and I think that's

1072
00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:26,400
Speaker 1: gonna allow me to defeat him in a field goal.
