Speaker 1: Team Barstool versus ND Alumni.

4
00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:09,520
Speaker 2: It was the Jets.

5
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:11,719
Speaker 1: I would never be able to sleep. My game is

6
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 1: when Tom Brady came into the NFL.

7
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:16,080
Speaker 2: Rich, Yes, we miss anything on this game.

14
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,520
Speaker 2: and we're talking if tom Brady was inevitable.

15
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 1: I believe in the butterfly effect, but Tom Brady is

16
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:51,840
Speaker 1: a self made man.

17
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 2: His journey back to Sports Center.

18
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 1: And I never thought I'd be back on ESPN or

19
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:58,639
Speaker 1: Disney Plus or Sports Center, but.

20
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 2: You were ready. I was ready. And his viral play

21
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 2: by play calls wide right.

22
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:06,960
Speaker 1: I mean the ball went wide right.

23
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 2: Rich, I think I'm got a tool bell. And then

24

Speaker 2: studios right, thank you so much? In one sentence, Why

37
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 2: this game?

38
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 1: Because I did the Sports Center highlight of this game,

39
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: and I didn't know about it until I redid my

40
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 1: Sports Center for the first time in twenty two years.

41
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 1: They found that out when I was getting ready to

42
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 1: do Sports Center for the first time in twenty two

43
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 1: years twenty two in support of my show going to

44
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 1: Disney Plus. They were like, did you know you did

45
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 1: the Tom Brady highlight of I'm like, well, there's been

46
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: many Tom Brady highlights like what are you talking about? Like, no,

47
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 1: when he came in, you know, the moment and might

48
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,960
Speaker 1: get out of here, and they found it and it

49
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: blew me away. And I figured when you invited me

50
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 1: back to be a two timer, which I guess also

51
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 1: means that I do other podcasts and you're upset about it,

52
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: I'm too timing you or am I? No? No?

53
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 2: I mean, if you're coming, it's you're it's a good thing.

54
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 1: It's a good thing'll beyond game two games. So yeah,

55
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 1: that's why I'm like, you know what, if I'm coming back,

56
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: let's choose that since many ways this podcast room is

57
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 1: in existence because of a moment like that, because of

58
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: you like that exactly the best one sentence in a while,

59
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: that is that is a good one. I don't talk

60
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: in one sentence. I mean you're asking me to just.

61
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 2: We have a bet for me. We always have a

62
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 2: bet after the guest leaves, who keeps it to one

63
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 2: sentence and who doesn't.

64
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: And if you noticed, I gave you a sentence. I

65
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: saw that, and then I expounded, I gave you a paragraph.

66
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: If you want, I can give you more than that.

67
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 2: Not yet, not yet.

68
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 3: This highlight was there anything like foreshadowy, nothing zero like

69
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 3: John Madden.

70
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: I watched it back again. We popped it on the

71
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 1: If you will return Sports Center. We put it on there,

72
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 1: and it's you know, it was big because it was

73
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 1: I believe the first game back post nine to eleven. Yep,

74
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: So it was you know, the highlight led with the

75
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 1: I think the Andrews brothers right, and then it was

76
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: just you know, uh the way that I guess the

77
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: Jets took the lead, and then it was just as

78
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: simple as like, here comes Moe Lewis and for Drew

79
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 1: Bledsoe and of course I made a Michigan reference with

80
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:18,600
Speaker 1: Brady just trotting out and they lost the game and

81
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 1: it was final score, Jets win.

82
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 2: And that was as simple as.

83
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 1: That, not like, well, our lives will never be the same,

84
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: you know, like and with the NFL will never be

85
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: the same. The Patriots will never be the same. Pretty

86
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,679
Speaker 1: much anybody in the organization's lives will never be the same.

87
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 1: There is zero point zero indication other than the fact

88
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,039
Speaker 1: that Bledsoe would significantly hurt and we all we all know,

89
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 1: so I figured, let's choose this.

90
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 2: This is a fun game to explore. But before we do.

91
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 2: Is it the greatest game of all time?

92
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,719
Speaker 1: No? Man, the game wasn't. What is the greatest game

93
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: of all time?

94
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 2: Time? Everyone asked, like, the game of all time? Any

95
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 2: sport anything, any sport anything.

96
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 1: Geez, I wasn't prepared for this greatest game of all time.

97
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 1: I mean for something like that, you've got to have

98
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: something that's unexpected or the stakes have got to be

99
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 1: bigger than just a regular season, right.

100
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 2: You gotta be okay, but this, the butterfly effects of

101
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 2: this game is pretty.

102
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 1: That's why I chose this, because of the butterfly effect.

103
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 2: This room without it is.

104
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 1: You're not wrong. It's what I said literally three minutes ago.

105
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 2: Okay, So you know I heard as an interviewer, I

106
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 2: learned from a good interviewer. Once I heard this, repeat,

107
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 2: repeat it. No, he said, listen to what the guy says.

108
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 2: So I was just trying to bring back to what

109
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 2: you said into a follow up.

110
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: I shouldn't I shouldn't push, you know, I'm just trying

111
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,359
Speaker 1: to be coaching what you need to do. If I

112
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 1: may give you another let's get a note. You have

113
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: to wait longer. You have to wait longer than when

114
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: I say it, and you can't do it the next

115
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,279
Speaker 1: three minutes. That makes the person think that you haven't

116
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 1: listened to me, But you did listen to me. If

117
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 1: you brought it back later on, that's like we and

118
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,159
Speaker 1: then call it either a callback call back or a

119
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 1: nice move by you. If it's the very last thing,

120
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: we say like you've brought it full circle. And also

121
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 1: you could wind up if there's enough time, take credit

122
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: for yourself that you said it. You know, that's the

123
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: way you can handle it. But that's the honest always

124
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: learning from you or jewels. I'm here for you. I'm

125
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: here for thirty forty years of this stuff. Can I

126
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: ask you one quick question before we start? I'm sorry?

127
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 1: Can you tell me I don't mean to take control?

128
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,479
Speaker 1: But I'm a control freak. It's difficult for me to

129
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,719
Speaker 1: be the answer the A of the Q and A sometimes,

130
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 1: But I just went into your Do we call it

131
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 1: the games with names?

132
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 2: Restroom? Is that what it is? Over there?

133
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:39,039
Speaker 1: Now? That's for the guests to utilize. You don't utilize

134
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:40,039
Speaker 1: it yourself. Always?

135
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:40,600
Speaker 2: Okay? Great?

136
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: And by the way, a fantastic array of amenities in there.

137
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,279
Speaker 1: You know, breath mint are they? Are they your sponsors?

138
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 1: That's okay, Noe wipes. That's that. When I saw that,

139
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 1: it made me think of this question. Has any games

140
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 1: with names guests? Dropped a deuce in there?

141
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 2: Yes? One.

142
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: Do we know who it is?

143
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, Rob Gronkowski, Gronk before we started doing Dudes on dudes.

144
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 2: I think he actually took a dump in there. All

145
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 2: we were filming another. Yeah he Now we have our.

146
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:12,679
Speaker 4: Own show with Gronk that we filmed.

147
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 1: There is that dropping a deuce or with him? With him,

148
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: it's spiking a deuce.

149
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 4: Okay, So I think the copy they call it Gronky's.

150
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 1: Oh my god, no, now I mean that. That's now

151
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: my life is complete that I asked this question. There's

152
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 1: an actual answer.

153
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 2: There was an actual answer.

154
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 1: Wow, man, Now do we know why? Because it was

155
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 1: one of the sixth senses or.

156
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 2: Dumps? You know, you do know, you know.

157
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 1: Not like Sark's got a camera in there with the face,

158
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: but you.

159
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 2: Just when that door opens up and he comes out.

160
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: And he says, I made a boom boom. No he okay, he.

161
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 2: Just kind of handles his business goes and.

162
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 1: He's got a little more peppinist step, a little more

163
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 1: peppinist shot.

164
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 2: It okay, good to know, but you definitely know.

165
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I mean, I just was wondering that my

166
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 1: bad the floor is yours back.

167
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 2: Well, let's get back to it. You're back with the

168
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 2: ESPN Plus. Yeah, buddy, the Rich Eisen Show being aired

169
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 2: on there. But I also saw you calling the game

170
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 2: in Brazil. How was that experience? Amazing? And you do

171
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 2: these international games all the time.

172
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: Which are but never his first time below the equator

173
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: not a metaphor for anything. I've never been to Brazil

174
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 1: and never been below the equator, and never been that

175
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: close to Antarctica in my life. And you know, it

176
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 1: was wild. Eleven and a half hour flights down, arrived

177
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 1: Thursday morning, do the game Friday night, then fly back

178
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 1: right after the game, so over like a ninety hour period.

179
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 1: I spent twenty two hours on a plane. Never done

180
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 1: that before, But just being down there and being in

181
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 1: a different environment, different spot. Have you ever been to

182
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 1: South Paulo before?

183
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,079
Speaker 2: I've been to Rio, I haven't been to South Campero.

184
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: South Paulo is the largest city I've ever been in

185
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 1: my entire life. And I grew up in New York

186
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,959
Speaker 1: and went to college in Chicago, you know, grad school

187
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: in Chicago. I've never seen anything like it. Was sprawling,

188
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,200
Speaker 1: twenty three million people, like apparently you could take the

189
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: populations of New York and Los Angeles and it's all

190
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 1: right there. I've never seen anything like it. And there

191
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: were football fans everywhere, were there everywhere I was. The

192
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 1: stadium was it mostly it's like a soccer stadium. It's

193
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: like forty seven thousand, so it it. It's not an

194
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: NFL stadium. Yeah, backed out totally. Oh yeah. There were

195
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 1: more Chiefs fans there than Charger fans one hundred percent.

196
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 1: And I'm sitting there going, oh man, the Chargers gave

197
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 1: up a home game for this, and it's Chiefs fans everywhere.

198
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 1: They came out and hit him in the mouth, man

199
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 1: in the mouth, in the mouth, and still at that

200
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 1: late stage, Mahomes almost had a chance to win. He

201
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: almost got the ball back with a chance to win it.

202
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 1: But I love calling games, and because everything that I've

203
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 1: done in my career is either talking about a game

204
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: before it in the pregame or after it in a

205
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,720
Speaker 1: highlight show. So to be able to one to describe

206
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 1: the action in real time, and the challenge of living

207
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,680
Speaker 1: up to the moment and make making sure you don't

208
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 1: talk too much so everyone at home actually gets a

209
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: sense of what it's like to be at the game.

210
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 1: It's like a big puzzle to put together, and I

211
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,079
Speaker 1: love it. I'll get bummed every single time the game

212
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 1: is over. Yeah, yeah, I love it. Man, I can't

213
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 1: get enough of it.

214
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,719
Speaker 2: No, there's something about it. It's you definitely got to

215
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 2: be on your wit in your cues because I'll mess

216
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 2: around and do it at my house. I've never actually

217
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,880
Speaker 2: done it, but I saw your interview recently with Al

218
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 2: Michaels and you asked him, what's a what's a game

219
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,199
Speaker 2: that you think of that you called? Well, what's a

220
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 2: game that you think of that you called?

221
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 1: Right?

222
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 2: Man? A game that I called that? Like, you're the

223
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 2: one that you're most proud of, the biggest game whatever.

224
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 1: I'm proud of a cop Like there was a Chiefs

225
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: Dolphins game in Frankfurt that was big going in, but

226
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 1: really wasn't that scintillating while it was happening. You know,

227
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: there's one that just doesn't leap out at me. I

228
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 1: like the ones I call in the United States because

229
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 1: I'm not flying twelve hours and getting you to fifteen

230
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:04,199
Speaker 1: time zones to call it. But like I said, I

231
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 1: just I love it. I can't get enough of it,

232
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 1: and being in these well I guess I should. There

233
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:10,959
Speaker 1: is one that leaves out at me. It was it

234
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 1: was Brady in the Bucks versus Pete Carroll and the

235
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:18,840
Speaker 1: Seahawks in Munich. First game in Munich, and they both

236
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 1: Tom and Pete and their postgame podium said it felt

237
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 1: like a super Bowl and it really did.

238
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 2: I swear to God. So frank So Frankfurt was the high.

239
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: High was Munich. The Munich is the high and Frankfurt

240
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:36,679
Speaker 1: Frankfort was a different stadium. Munich Stadium is unbelievable. It's

241
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 1: it's quite large and there are It's an incredible city

242
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: with a massive history. And obviously you know there's some

243
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 1: football fans everywhere, but in Munich particular that that was

244
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 1: the most intense football fan where I'm going through the

245
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 1: beer gardens the day before and just strolling through it,

246
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 1: think we'll see what football fans. I meet them everywhere,

247
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:05,080
Speaker 1: and it's like the United Nations of uniforms. They're they're

248
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 1: where in every all thirty two teams are repped. There

249
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 1: are fans coming from because it was in Germany, and

250
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:14,719
Speaker 1: I had never called a game outside of London internationally,

251
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 1: and Germany is geographically closer to Africa and the Middle East,

252
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 1: so like, hey, I'm serving in Kuwait, so I came

253
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 1: here or I was in you know, I live in Egypt,

254
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: and this is as close as the NFL's come and

255
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 1: I'm coming to the game here. And then you go

256
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:36,320
Speaker 1: to the game and there's German speaking fans everywhere, so

257
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,960
Speaker 1: it's not like Americans who are flying out there. Truly

258
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 1: is an international scene. And it did feel like a

259
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:45,360
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, certainly with Tom playing in it and his

260
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:49,440
Speaker 1: face everywhere in the city and the Seahawks come in.

261
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 1: It was awesome. It was an incredible game. And of

262
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 1: course in the game, you know, calling a game, it's

263
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 1: it's wild, trying to expect to the unexpected. And you know,

264
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 1: Brady at one point hands it off to Fournett, who

265
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 1: throws it to Tom and none of us saw that

266
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 1: one coming at.

267
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,960
Speaker 2: All, especially after the Super Bowl. Oh my god.

268
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:19,319
Speaker 1: And the turf was really slick because and that's why

269
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: a lot of these turfs internationally are an issue for

270
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 1: some players, is because if you're playing on the soccer surface.

271
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: It's better for those players to have a slicker turf

272
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 1: because the ball sides. And also they're not used to

273
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 1: having three hundred pound people having to put their foot

274
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 1: down on the ground and plants, so they don't care,

275
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: which is why the NFL has now for these international

276
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: games essentially taken over the stadium there's in Tottenham. The

277
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,719
Speaker 1: NFL has provided the facility with their turf. So when

278
00:13:56,720 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 1: there's an NFL game, out goes the Tottenham turf, incomes

279
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 1: the NFL turf.

280
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,319
Speaker 2: Now as a grasser is a turf, it's both. They're

281
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 2: all hybrids, so they're hybrids.

282
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: And so the one in Brazil, the game last year

283
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 1: between the Eagles was that patent not great at all,

284
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 1: So you know the league hears it and they don't

285
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:17,079
Speaker 1: want that to be the issue. In July, they basically

286
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 1: shut the stadium down, brought in this device.

287
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 2: They showed me a video of it.

288
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 1: It's the size of a pickup truck, but it's like

289
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 1: this massive sewing machine on wheels where they would jam

290
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 1: these fibers seven feet into the ground to stitch the

291
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 1: stadium together. It's grass on top, but hybrid fibers in

292
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 1: wow and you know, the Chiefs in the and the

293
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 1: Chargers went out and they were like pounting the turf

294
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: with their fifths, saying, this is really hard, but we're

295
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 1: going to be able to run real fast. And it

296
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: wasn't an issue with this game at all. So the

297
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 1: NFL is basically taken. They took over the stadium in

298
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 1: July to do it. But like I said, I I

299
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 1: love it, can't get enough of it. Want to call

300
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 1: more games as much as I possibly can.

301
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 2: What's what was it like working YouTube?

302
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 1: Great?

303
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, and because this is a new this is

304
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 2: a human about it splash for just sports media in general.

305
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,840
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, this whole YouTube YouTube TV. They were great.

306
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 1: They were great to work with. They they hired the

307
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 1: NBC Sports crew to produce it. They were as a

308
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 1: plus professionals as possibly come. The YouTube people were extremely

309
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 1: welcoming and they also wanted to make it their own,

310
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 1: which meant they were influencers and content creators all over

311
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 1: the place over And I'm fifty six years old. I've

312
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 1: never felt older in my entire life. Yeah, you know,

323
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 2: Watching the broadcast. I thought they were because they were

324
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 2: bringing such a different audience to it. I thought it

325
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 2: was really cool. They had the little educational like segments

326
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 2: where they would explain the mic in the quarterback and

327
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 2: how they got the play communicator. There's a bunch of

328
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 2: cool stuff. And then you would see all these influencers,

329
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 2: like you said, yeah, destroying was on the sidelines. They

330
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 2: were all there.

331
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I was busting his chops because he had

332
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 1: a YouTube hat on. Hey this is where this No,

333
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: there was at least yeah, but it wasn't NFL logo.

334
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 2: It was a YouTube logo.

335
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 1: And I'm like, hey, listen, man, you may be new media,

362
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:49,399
Speaker 1: but also they're incredibly popular and and you know, I

363
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: was ready to be walking and go, you know, we're

364
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 1: the Rich Eisen Show. YouTube channel is almost a million followers.

Speaker 1: I'm gonna get this neat little plaque. And they're like,

366
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 1: probably get.

367
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 2: Out of you.

368
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:04,160
Speaker 1: You're a million, you're a million subscribers. They're really popular.

369
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 2: And I thought it was.

370
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,160
Speaker 1: And I thought the graphics package for the YouTube game

371
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,919
Speaker 1: was really clean and it looked exactly like you're watching

372
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: a game on YouTube. It looked different, but it also

373
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 1: was YouTube traditional enough that people aren't gonna be like

374
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 1: this is this is tough to watch or anything like that.

375
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 1: And it sounded great, look great. Couldn't have been happier.

376
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:22,400
Speaker 1: Couldn't have been happier.

377
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 2: Now, where do you think the future of NFL broadcast

378
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:26,920
Speaker 2: scene is gonna go? How?

379
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 1: So?

380
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 2: What do you mean, just like you see how they're

381
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 2: assigning players, we're going into streaming. What do you think

382
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,119
Speaker 2: just the future of it is? Are we going to

383
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 2: continue to just go this route or there?

384
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:38,680
Speaker 1: I think this is what it is. I think the

385
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 1: Internet everyone it keeps asking about the international games. I

386
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 1: might have talked about it with you when I was

387
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 1: a one time or on this program. But I don't

388
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: think they're playing these games internationally to create international teams abroad.

389
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 1: I just don't think or even you're hearing, Well, we're

390
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 1: gonna have a pod, we're gonna have a division, we're

391
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 1: gonna expand, and it's gonna be four teams playing internationally

392
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: and they're gonna play each other a lot, like go

393
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,240
Speaker 1: on the road. They're gonna come to America and have

394
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 1: like a four game road trip.

395
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 2: It doesn't work until there's a lot of money.

396
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 1: No, I know that, but it just doesn't. It doesn't

397
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,720
Speaker 1: work the competition wise, but also trying to get a

398
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 1: team together, like you know, suddenly, hey, guess what, you're

399
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 1: now drafted and playing in Munich, you now live in Germany,

400
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 1: or free agents like who wants to go home and say, hey,

401
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 1: we can get a boatload of money, but you're gonna

402
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,160
Speaker 1: leave school. You're gonna leave home our beautiful dream home

403
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,439
Speaker 1: that we built with my first contract. Let's put it

404
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:33,359
Speaker 1: in off balls, let's let's let's let's you know, time

405
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 1: share it like it's a It's a very difficult thing

406
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 1: to coaching staffs trying to get coaching staffs to move.

407
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:43,120
Speaker 1: It's not going to be easy. I think what they're

408
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,439
Speaker 1: trying to do is just create another package of games

409
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:49,400
Speaker 1: and a fourth window of action where you know, you'll

410
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:53,679
Speaker 1: play outside of the Eastern time zone on a Fronday,

411
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 1: like playing in Brazil, you're only one hour ahead of

412
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 1: the Eastern time zone. But you're not going to do

413
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: that on a Sunday because there's Sunday Night Football or

414
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 1: one o'clock games or what have you, four o'clock games.

415
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 1: But you can do it on a Friday, and you

416
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 1: do it on a Friday. That there's a reason why

417
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 1: the NFL plays on Fridays to the first week of

418
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 1: the season and the day after the Thanksgiving is because

419
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 1: that's outside of high schools football season. And there, you know,

420
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:22,600
Speaker 1: for their for their contract that they basically have with

421
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,919
Speaker 1: the United States government, for the lack of better phrase,

422
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 1: for their for their ability.

423
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:29,239
Speaker 2: To have high school to have their day.

424
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, high school that has to have their day for

425
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,719
Speaker 1: the NFL to to have the financial setup that they

426
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 1: were allowed to have legally in the United States. Bottom

427
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 1: line is there are opportunities to play outside of Europe

428
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 1: on occasion, but mostly you're going to be playing games

429
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: in Europe in that fourth early window non am eastern

430
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,400
Speaker 1: six o'clock Pacific window of football. And I think that's

431
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 1: what you're basically going to have.

432
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 2: Me and Gronk pitch to Rog we should do Wednesday

433
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,679
Speaker 2: night games and we would do like a a stream

434
00:20:58,720 --> 00:20:59,199
Speaker 2: cast of it.

435
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 1: How did that pitch?

436
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 2: It is? Luke warm? Luke warm?

437
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 1: Now what are you going with the.

438
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:05,160

Speaker 2: We'd love to do it.

441
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 1: Do you go to his office telling this ire at

00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:16,320

445
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:21,600
Speaker 2: He said he wasn't opposed to it.

446
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 3: He said what he said, done Wednesday night football is

447
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,800

450
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, listen, I've been around Roger Goodell for twenty two

451
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 1: twenty three years now.

452
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 2: That was a no.

453
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:41,720

00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: With I don't know what you're talking about. I mean

469
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 1: the ball went wide right, so I was describing an

470
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 1: extra point that I missed. I would have said wide left,

471
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 1: but you said I mean because it was right.

472
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,159
Speaker 2: I think tool be.

473
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what you're saying other than the fact

474
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 1: that I was describing the action, which is my job when.

475
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 2: I'm calling a game. It was a great job.

476
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 1: Thank you. I appreciate it. I heard about people thinking

477
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 1: that I meant something else, but I mean I was

478
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:50,400
Speaker 1: just it went wide right. It was another field goal

479
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 1: went in. I said it was right down the middle,

480
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 1: so it was a little right right down the middle,

481
00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,440
Speaker 1: so I said, down the middle and then he made

482
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 1: another one and it was a huge, big feel goal.

483
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 1: Before the end of the half, I was like, what

484
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 1: I kick by Butcker and credit old like similar to

485
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:06,200
Speaker 1: something like that.

486
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:10,200
Speaker 2: So how these kickers, man, they're they're kicking like the

487
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 2: who was a Boswell who had a fifty nine.

488
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 1: Sixties the Jets with a sixty sixty for.

489
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 2: A game winner, like, these are nuts. It's nuts now,

490
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 2: and there is. Granted, there are some of these bad

491
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,679
Speaker 2: kicks like Moody. I feel sorry for him, but gosh,

492
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,920
Speaker 2: the kickers right now are just killing it. I think

493
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 2: they're elite. Now. You're a Jets fan, grew up a

494
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 2: Jet fan? No more?

495
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,439
Speaker 1: Oh, I mean I'm calling their game in London, and

496
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,919
Speaker 1: so I'm I mean, I don't. I will tell you

497
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,199
Speaker 1: this man, and anybody who knows me knows I am

498
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:46,639
Speaker 1: telling the truth. I would give anything, right parts of

499
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:50,360
Speaker 1: bodies for a game that comes down to the last minute.

500
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter me who wins. I do not care.

501
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:54,680
Speaker 1: I do not care. I swear to you, I don't care.

502
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 1: But I don't want to hear like, oh, you're rooting

503
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 1: for the Jets because you grew up a Jet fan

504
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 1: or anything like that. I don't care the dead for Broncas.

505
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 1: By the way, I adore. One of my favorite humans

Speaker 1: and doing shots and stuff like that, and it was

515
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 1: one of the few times where I was concerned about

516
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,359

Speaker 1: Bowl win in Miami, they win the Super Bowl, they

555
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 1: beat Indianapolis, and he comes to the set right after

556
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 1: the game and he is so fired up, he is

557
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 1: so pumped up, and he sees all of us and

558
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,160
Speaker 1: he's shaking hands. Marshall Falk was on our set and

559
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,960
Speaker 1: he was Marshall's position coach at San Diego State. H

560
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:41,879
Speaker 1: So he goes way back with him and he sees

561
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,920
Speaker 1: me and he just slaps my arm so hard, slaps

562
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 1: my hand so hard. I got I think I got

563
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 1: a stinger like I did not. I did not feel

564
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:53,120
Speaker 1: my entire interview with him.

565
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 2: I don't know what it was.

566
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:56,879
Speaker 1: I got through it.

567
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:57,199
Speaker 2: I had to.

568
00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,399
Speaker 1: I had to shift my microphone to my offhand that

569
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 1: I have. You know, I'm I'm a I'm a five

570
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:06,440
Speaker 1: tool player. So uh and I did not feel my

571
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 1: right arm in the entire interview. The entire interview went

572
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:11,680
Speaker 1: right down. It took me ten minutes to finally get

573
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 1: That's how pumped up he was. If there wasn't a job,

574
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 1: there wasn't a blue ten yet. Yeah no, Otherwise the

575
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,360
Speaker 1: independent neurologist would have would have called down to take

576
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 1: me off the set. But but I adore Sewan. So

577
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 1: if I see him in the Denver Broncos win that game, great,

578
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 1: If the Jets win that game, great. I just wanted

579
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 1: to be a one score game even over time. Let's go,

580
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:36,440
Speaker 1: let's go. I want overtime.

581
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:37,920
Speaker 2: Who went longer on the bull?

582
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 1: He did? I don't actually I don't recall, but I

583
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 1: know I got on it and it was unfortunate. Julian, listen,

584
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 1: I know you can understand this. How many bull riders

585
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 1: who are Jewish? Do you know of how many Jewish

586
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:53,640
Speaker 1: bull riders?

587
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 2: Is this Hirchel down in Texas?

588
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,919
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? So I'm the son of

589
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 1: two New York Jews who were you know what I mean? Like,

590
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 1: I get it was a mismatch from the start. Jonathan Hawkman,

591
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 1: Is that right?

592
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:10,880
Speaker 2: Yeah?

593
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:14,960
Speaker 1: Do you google Jewish bull riders and what comes up?

594
00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 1: Like this guy at guy's.

595
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 4: Twitter and his handle is at bull riding Jew.

596
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,120
Speaker 2: Hey, Hey, shout out so many Sometimes you just gotta

597
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 2: walk in the door.

598
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:26,920
Speaker 1: Just just call it what it is, bull riding Jew,

599
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 1: which is kind of weird because I think bulls are

600
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,720
Speaker 1: not kosher. So just not on a Saturday, you know

601
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 1: what I mean, just Friday night bull riding for not

602
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 1: with cheese you can have you can have stak to

603
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 1: bless it.

604
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's how you're going.

605
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,800
Speaker 1: Like this the rabbit does a rabbi ride a bull

606
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: next to you and he bless it? Okay, any how

607
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 1: do we get on this subject?

608
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 5: I like you guys, gotta do it again. Do you

609
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 5: find a honky tonkin London? I run it back.

610
00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:00,720
Speaker 2: We'll be right back after this quick break. So what's

611
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,920
Speaker 2: your current mindset on this year's Jets? Oh?

612
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,240
Speaker 1: I think they made all the right moves in the offseason.

613
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: We'll see if it pays off. Like well, I mean,

614
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:15,800
Speaker 1: he's he's a Jet originally a Bill Parcell's draft choice,

615
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 1: so he's been there when the Jets had a page

616
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 1: turn that worked. And then you know, listen, obviously the

617
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 1: the Aaron Rodgers tenure was over. Rogers, as you know,

618
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 1: has a big problem in the way it was communicated

619
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 1: to him. But I don't mind them saying, listen, there's

620
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 1: one Erran here, and we want the voice that everyone

621
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 1: he follows to be a coach, not the quarterback. And

622
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 1: the coach is going to set his standard, and so

623
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 1: we're going to move in a different direction. To use

624
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:50,480
Speaker 1: the football phrase makes sense. I love the fact that

625
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 1: they paid both Garrett Wilson and Sauce Gardner. It's not

626
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 1: like you're not going to keep them. It's not like

627
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 1: you don't know who you already have in those players. Yeah,

628
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 1: so you sign him early. You saw what happened with

629
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 1: Dallas when you sometimes sign people late, that gets more

630
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 1: expensive or it can go sideways of the line, right.

631
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 1: So I like the fact that they drafted again to

632
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 1: hit the offensive line tackles right. So they made the

633
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 1: right bets. I just you know, you never know if

634
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: it's the right and justin fields, you know you're gonna

635
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 1: get in the era of paying quarterbacks who have never

636
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 1: won a Super Bowl, or sometimes never won a playoff game,

637
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,959
Speaker 1: or sometimes haven't even made the playoffs. You're paying some

638
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 1: of these guys fifty million dollars a year based on

639
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 1: pass performance without the playoff appearances and or wins or

640
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 1: rings and injuries. So you're going to somebody, right, You're

641
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 1: paying somebody twenty million bucks a year to give it

642
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 1: a whirl. And it's not like he's thirty two, he's

643
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,959
Speaker 1: twenty six. You're giving him an opportunity to prove that

644
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 1: he's a two way threat at a level that can

645
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 1: be supported by a coaching staff and a management team

646
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 1: that believes in him, which I don't think he's really

647
00:30:56,840 --> 00:31:00,320
Speaker 1: ever had, and see how it goes. In one in

648
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,320
Speaker 1: as of this taping, he looked pretty damn sharp.

649
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 2: That was the best I ever seen justin fields look.

650
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 1: So let's see what where it can go. I mean,

651
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 1: these are good bets, good moves to make, and I

652
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 1: just don't know if it'll work out.

653
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know if it will work out.

654
00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:21,080
Speaker 1: But the off season and through week one, granted it's

655
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 1: Week one, Yes, it's been very quiet over in New York.

656
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 2: As opposed to previous years. As opposed to previous years,

657
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,440
Speaker 2: which is a good thing. There's no distractions. They look

658
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 2: like they had an identity. They look like a competent

659
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 2: football team. That's tough playing against a team like Pittsburgh who.

660
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 1: Has the identity that they have, who has the continuity

661
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 1: that they have? Yes, and go out and losing the

662
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,719
Speaker 1: way they did. I thought that was the best loss

663
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 1: I know in Week one?

664
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 2: Where do you hang that banner?

665
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 1: Where does that banner go right? You know, I asked you,

666
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,479
Speaker 1: where does that banner? Best Week one loss of the

667
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five season. Let's raise that ship.

668
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's new coaching staff, there's a new attitude.

669
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,120
Speaker 2: The defense is gonna get better. It's week one. No,

670
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 2: I agree. Obviously they have a lot of great They

671
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 2: have a lot of good football players and drafted in

672
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,240
Speaker 2: the first round high a lot.

673
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 1: They sure they have a talented roster. But you're going

674
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 1: against a very veteran Steelers team that added Jalen Ramsey

675
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 1: and and it's got some got something going. You know,

676
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 1: they got something going. And we'll see how Rogers performs

677
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:32,120
Speaker 1: here on out. But his first four touchdown games since

678
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 1: his last MVP season.

679
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,480
Speaker 2: Is a great way for him to start to It

680
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 2: was a great way for him to start. It was

681
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 2: a fun game. Yeah, that was Since I've retired, that

682
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 2: Week one was probably the most exciting week one that

683
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 2: I can remember since I've been in the TV game. Dude.

684
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 2: That Sunday night game between Atlanta Tampa was in sneaky

685
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 2: good game Seattle for forty nine.

686
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 1: Ers Monday night er with the Vikings and the Bear

687
00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 1: really good.

688
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 2: I know. It was a great week of football.

689
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,080
Speaker 1: I agree, and it's just something that we were all

690
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:07,640
Speaker 1: waiting for and it's it's great. I'm so fortunate to be,

691
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,080
Speaker 1: you know, in the middle of the NFL world and

692
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 1: have different platforms on which to talk about it in

693
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,480
Speaker 1: different ways, to meet with fans and talk with fans

694
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 1: about it. And you know, this is season twenty three

695
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:24,200
Speaker 1: for me with NFL NETW was season twelve covering the

696
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 1: NFL through my show. It's it's pretty cool, man. I'm

697
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 1: really blessed when it comes to that.

698
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 2: Well, we're blessed to have you because you you broadcast

699
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:36,240
Speaker 2: it like you're one of the goats. You know, you

700
00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 2: can't stick around in this business for as long as

701
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,240
Speaker 2: you have and not be good. Thank you. You know,

702
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 2: the good stuff goes. Watch me in about a couple

703
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,240
Speaker 2: more years and then you'll see you know, all away.

704
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 1: No, you'll be like a fine one, bro.

705
00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:51,400
Speaker 2: There we go. Actually, but can you explain to us

706
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:55,400
Speaker 2: how the ESPN get reunitement came about?

707
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 1: Sure? Yeah, I mean so my show Roku. I thought

708
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 1: it was on Roque channel. And I love those folks

709
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: at Roku. They are really great. And they initially approached

710
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 1: me from my show three years ago because and they

711
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:15,520
Speaker 1: were rightfully, you know, indignant that direct tv was known

712
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:18,160
Speaker 1: as the place if you're a sports fan to to

713
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:20,719
Speaker 1: go to if you want to see anything in sports,

714
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 1: like anything, and they were indignant about it because Roku

715
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 1: is the main place to go to stream television and

716
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,399
Speaker 1: they had every sporting event too, but people didn't kind

717
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 1: of know about it. Streaming is still back, I guess

718
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:42,319
Speaker 1: even three years ago something of a question mark for fans.

719
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:43,279
Speaker 2: Do we really want to do that?

720
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 1: Do we really want to cut a cord? Do we

721
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:46,640
Speaker 1: really not want to have a dish on the roof?

722
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 1: Do we really want to go and depend on my

723
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 1: internet connection for sports? And the answer is yes, yes,

724
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:54,840
Speaker 1: and you don't want to, you don't want to anything

725
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:56,840
Speaker 1: on your roof anymore. Let's let's go ahead and just

726
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 1: use your inner connection and watch sports. And so Roku

727
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 1: came to me and said, you know, we want you

728
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:05,360
Speaker 1: to be sort of a drum beat of sports every

729
00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:09,560
Speaker 1: day talking about sports on our platform, on a Roku channel,

730
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:13,279
Speaker 1: and bring sports fans in and you know, and if

731
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:15,480
Speaker 1: your simulcast on the radio, just do us a favor,

732
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:17,759
Speaker 1: and you know, mention her name a few times. I'm

733
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 1: like done, I see it. I understand, like I planted

734
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 1: a flag for NFL network. My show was the first

735
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 1: on the Fast channels on Peacock with Dan Patrick, and

736
00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: you know, my show was born on direct TV after

737
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:34,799
Speaker 1: Dan Patrick. So I understand what it takes to try

738
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:37,880
Speaker 1: and brand yourself and brand your partner at the same time.

739
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 1: And it was incredible with Roku, just awesome. And if

740
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,920
Speaker 1: it wasn't an opportunity for ESPN to say let's get

741
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,600
Speaker 1: back together, and I'd still be on on the Roku

742
00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:50,440
Speaker 1: channel and that platform, I mean Roku channels the fifth

743
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 1: most streamed channel or entity in streaming right now, and said,

744
00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:57,799
Speaker 1: you didn't know that.

745
00:35:57,960 --> 00:35:59,319
Speaker 2: It's the truth that you didn't know that.

746
00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 1: So for me to leave it, it's got to be

747
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,799
Speaker 1: a damn good reason for it, or part ways with

748
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 1: them again. That's I don't want to ever turn it

749
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 1: that I left them, or even though I just turned

750
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:11,480
Speaker 1: it that way. It just one of those things I

751
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:16,400
Speaker 1: just could not refuse the opportunity. And so because my

752
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:20,400
Speaker 1: show is on radio and also on TV right that

753
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:24,439
Speaker 1: that I didn't a two years ago my radio rights

754
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:27,680
Speaker 1: were up ESPN. We knocked on their door. They were interested,

755
00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,480
Speaker 1: but they're like, listen, just doing it for radio is

756
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,120
Speaker 1: one thing we wanted when you have all of your

757
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:38,960
Speaker 1: rights up. And so when that was happening, we reached

758
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:41,200
Speaker 1: out to ESPN to say, you know, do you mean

759
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:44,400
Speaker 1: what you said? And they meant what they said. And

760
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 1: I remember, you know, having a meeting with Jimmy Petaro,

761
00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:52,600
Speaker 1: who was the major DOMO at ESPN and everything ESPN

762
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,799
Speaker 1: that you know, he basically said that he wanted me

763
00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 1: back with ESPN and one of the show and I

764
00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 1: got all, you know, misty about it. And because I

765
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 1: never thought the head of ESPN would ever say those

766
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:08,600
Speaker 1: words to me again. After you know, getting a cardboard

767
00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 1: box twenty two years ago, this past summer, So to

768
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:19,400
Speaker 1: bring my show in a in a an arrangement where

769
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:24,960
Speaker 1: they licensed the program and I produce it, and they

770
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 1: are supportive in every possible way that you would think

771
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:32,360
Speaker 1: the platform would be supportive, from social media to promotion

772
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,320
Speaker 1: to everything else, to the radio side of things as well.

773
00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,399
Speaker 1: And then so I'm kind of planting a flag right

774
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 1: now for Disney Plus where there's a daily drum beat

775
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,040
Speaker 1: of sports there, because I mean, if I had to guess,

776
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 1: their plan is to put more and more live sports

777
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:52,120
Speaker 1: on Disney Plus. And so you get the trio package,

778
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 1: right and so, and you know my show is I

779
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:56,920
Speaker 1: consider my show a pop culture show more than you know,

780
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 1: just a sports show because we have celebrities on and

781
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:02,360
Speaker 1: talking movies and TV shows and things of that nature.

782
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 1: And so for Disney Plus to have certain you know,

783
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:13,360
Speaker 1: priorities they you know, where they're on air, actors, actresses

784
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,920
Speaker 1: or whomever you know, for them to fit in an

785
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:19,279
Speaker 1: ESPN show would be like, you know, them showing up

786
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:22,839
Speaker 1: on Sports Center for five minutes, or maybe if they're

787
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 1: they're a sports fans, show up on college game day

788
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 1: to pick games or whatever. This is a sort of

789
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:32,520
Speaker 1: a sit down, twenty minute conversation to promote whatever show

790
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 1: they want to promote, whether it's on Hulu, Disney Plus,

791
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:39,120
Speaker 1: or the Disney World. So I guess I kind of

792
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:42,360
Speaker 1: fit on Disney Plus. For me, it's like a dream

793
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 1: where you see my show and my face and the

794
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:53,319
Speaker 1: the logo of the show over Pixar Marvel Star Wars. Dude.

795
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:55,120
Speaker 1: It's one of those things where I bring my kids

796
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 1: in the room.

797
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 2: I never really do this. I'm like, how do you

798
00:38:57,480 --> 00:38:57,920
Speaker 2: like me now?

799
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,359
Speaker 1: And they're like, not so much, Dad, shut up, Like

800
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 1: you can stay up another hour, Like that's that's what

801
00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:05,880
Speaker 1: That's like.

802
00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:09,160
Speaker 2: The most satisfaction you get is when your kid thinks

803
00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:11,919
Speaker 2: you're a little cool. That's the That is pretty cool.

804
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:16,360
Speaker 1: But in all honesty, the best satisfaction that I'm getting

805
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,400
Speaker 1: is the crew, Like your crew that you have, Like

806
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 1: obviously you guys have been together now. I've been seeing

807
00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:27,360
Speaker 1: it my two times now. Yeah. My crew stuck with

808
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 1: me through you know, getting our walking papers from Direct

809
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 1: TV and AT and T, through a pandemic, through everything,

810
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:40,120
Speaker 1: and the fact that I told them, you know, like,

811
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 1: stick with the program and we're going to get it

812
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,120
Speaker 1: to where it needs to be. Never did I think

813
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 1: it would wind up, you know, on Disney Plus and

814
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:51,640
Speaker 1: ESPN and ESPN Radio and all of that, that they've

815
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:56,600
Speaker 1: stuck with the ride and the show and believed in it.

816
00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 1: I don't need to tell you, like, I'm sure you're obvious.

817
00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:03,600
Speaker 1: Your MVP trophy is somewhere in this house. I'm sure

818
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:06,120
Speaker 1: a ring is somewhere in this house. But the thing

819
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:09,880
Speaker 1: you're most proud of is the team that you were part.

820
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:10,720
Speaker 2: Of, right definite.

821
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 1: And you're going to see these guys the rest of

822
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:15,319
Speaker 1: your lives without it, and that's the beauty of it.

823
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:18,759
Speaker 1: It lives forever. In that respect. It's the same thing

824
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 1: when you're putting a broadcast together. Where we've been together,

825
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:24,799
Speaker 1: we're drama free, no one's an asshole. We're great to

826
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,000
Speaker 1: each other and with each other and for each other.

827
00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:30,120
Speaker 1: And that's the thing that I love like every day

828
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:34,760
Speaker 1: that we're doing this, you know, and that they're getting

829
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 1: opportunities on their own as well through this partnership that's

830
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:42,040
Speaker 1: only as of this taping about eight days old.

831
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 2: We're seeing it already. It's pretty cool, man, It is

832
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:47,839
Speaker 2: very cool, and we're all very lucky to have you back.

833
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:52,399
Speaker 2: Nanks Pal. You know where you started but also in

834
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,919
Speaker 2: your own manner, It's still the Rich Eisen Show.

835
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:59,919
Speaker 1: Okay, Disney's just licensing. I'm still the Rich Eisen Show.

836
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:01,840
Speaker 1: I appreciate you saying that, and I do want to

837
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:03,919
Speaker 1: come that. I want I kind of want to cape

838
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:08,040
Speaker 1: for my new partners in that respect, because ESPN gets

839
00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:14,920
Speaker 1: a lot of grief for changing things that they buy

840
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:20,360
Speaker 1: right unfairly. I think, like, for instance, the commercial free

841
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:24,839
Speaker 1: aspect of Red Zone not watching it come on hell right,

842
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 1: and now they are Now there are commercials and I'm

843
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 1: I'm seeing all of these social media posts and articles

844
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 1: right or like, that's ESPN screwing up something good. ESPN

845
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 1: doesn't even own it. They will never own it. They

846
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:42,520
Speaker 1: will have the right to distribute it. The NFL is

847
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 1: still producing it. And part of the reason why the

848
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:48,640
Speaker 1: NFL will always produce Red Zone is because I don't

849
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:54,040
Speaker 1: think other partners of the NFL, like say Fox and CBS,

850
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:57,759
Speaker 1: who pay a hoop ton of money for this sort

851
00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:01,360
Speaker 1: of stuff, they don't want anybody else who they compete

852
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:05,680
Speaker 1: with produce producing their game presentation in any way, shape

853
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:08,759
Speaker 1: or form. So the NFL is producing it and will

854
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:11,560
Speaker 1: always produce it, which is why I think Scott Hansen

855
00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:14,799
Speaker 1: may wind up being the last NFL media employee that

856
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:19,040
Speaker 1: ever exists, because ESPN may may buy NFL Network at

857
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:21,719
Speaker 1: some point. They're supposed to. They did, but they did,

858
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,719
Speaker 1: but the deal's not complete until there's government approval and

859
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:28,319
Speaker 1: teaser crossing the eer dot it and that's probably not happen.

860
00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:31,319
Speaker 1: So ESPN is getting all sorts of well, as soon

861
00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:34,239
Speaker 1: as ESPN buys the Red Zone or which they didn't,

862
00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:37,600
Speaker 1: they bought the rights to distribute it, and as soon

863
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 1: as they get the Red Zone, suddenly they're commercials on it.

864
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 2: They don't, they don't have anything.

865
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:46,480
Speaker 1: They don't even own the production they don't, and they

866
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:49,799
Speaker 1: don't own the distribution. Yet you get crap for that.

867
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:54,680
Speaker 1: And then I don't understand how ESPN gets the rep

868
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:59,080
Speaker 1: that they changed things all right on stuff that they

869
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:01,640
Speaker 1: acquire when.

870
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:06,680
Speaker 2: Pat's show, but that's the first time you haven't. Well,

871
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:08,920
Speaker 2: then Pat's led the way, He's kind of led the way,

872
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:09,520
Speaker 2: you know what I mean.

873
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:13,520
Speaker 1: But so everyone's like, oh, ESPN changes things and Pat

874
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:17,600
Speaker 1: he has had the show is Pat's program? Like you

875
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:19,880
Speaker 1: can't watch that show and say, oh, he's being censored.

876
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:23,440
Speaker 1: No ever, you know, And so that they haven't said

877
00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:27,160
Speaker 1: to me a thing yet at all. And I don't

878
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 1: expect it, you know, because first of all, it's in

879
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:33,239
Speaker 1: a contract and Pat has the same thing, and look

880
00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:35,480
Speaker 1: at what he's doing. So I think when inside the

881
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:37,799
Speaker 1: NBA comes and I know that Barkley's out there saying,

882
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:40,200
Speaker 1: we haven't been told anything yet, and so I don't

883
00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:43,440
Speaker 1: know what he's been been told or not. Personally, I

884
00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 1: think they're they're they're acquiring it.

885
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,719
Speaker 2: The way it is. Yeah, like you guys, do them

886
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:50,359
Speaker 2: do their thing like the way that?

887
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:52,719
Speaker 1: Like how crazy would it be would it be to

888
00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:57,480
Speaker 1: buy the rights to broadcast inside the NBA and tell them, yeah,

889
00:43:57,880 --> 00:43:58,480
Speaker 1: will you do it?

890
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:00,960
Speaker 2: Let's let we have a couple of tip for.

891
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:05,319
Speaker 1: You, you know, or or you know, hey, listen, we

892
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 1: know that you're used to going for an extra fifteen

893
00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:09,560
Speaker 1: minutes right now, but man, we got to get it

894
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:12,120
Speaker 1: to everyone's expecting they're going to tell Barkley you're not

895
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:14,239
Speaker 1: going on the air for another fifteen twenty minutes because

896
00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:17,200
Speaker 1: we have to get it to Sports Center. I don't know.

897
00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:20,000
Speaker 1: I would be kind of surprised based on the way

898
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:21,480
Speaker 1: they deal with me, based on what I see what

899
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:22,840
Speaker 1: they do with pat.

900
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:26,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I think they're gonna let I mean,

901
00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 2: I think they've changed, they shifted in that.

902
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 1: Well, they're they're acquiring stuff that I'm obviously acquiring, the

903
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,960
Speaker 1: distribution rights to my show. I think they're smart. But

904
00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:40,040
Speaker 1: they're making some smart plays here. Man, the WWE getting

905
00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:43,960
Speaker 1: all those pls right now. You know, MLB, they're getting

906
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:46,840
Speaker 1: some you know, rights in a certain way that they've

907
00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:51,000
Speaker 1: never had before with them, the NFL network, I mean,

908
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:53,440
Speaker 1: which again I.

909
00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:55,799
Speaker 2: Don't think work for Fox. Yeah, I understand, no.

910
00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:58,839
Speaker 1: But Fox, Fox and Disney are I can't be can't

911
00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 1: be buffet out. I can't be fluff for them too much.

912
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 1: Masses will start getting mad at me. Excuse me to

913
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:05,279
Speaker 1: start getting mad.

914
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:09,520
Speaker 2: Uncle will be coming out of here, this guy.

915
00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:13,840
Speaker 1: Listen, Shanks and Jimmy Petaro are bundling products together. You

916
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:17,800
Speaker 1: can you can bundle Foxes directing consumer with the ESPN's

917
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:21,239
Speaker 1: direct to consumer because everyone knows like this will raise

00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:40,160
Speaker 2: Before we get into the game, I love that. You said,

923
00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:42,960
Speaker 2: you're not just a sports show, You're a pop culture show.

Speaker 2: one that surprised you the most? What celebrities surprizes you

926
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:51,600
Speaker 2: the most? That knew the most ball that you thought

927
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:53,440
Speaker 2: they don't know ball? Wow?

928
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:55,280
Speaker 1: Who knew the most ball?

929
00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:57,800
Speaker 2: Whatever? Ball? It was great question.

930
00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:03,080
Speaker 1: I talked, uh fantasy football with Jody Foster for five minutes. Great?

931
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:08,640
Speaker 1: That was cool, so cool. That was unexpected, to say

932
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:13,560
Speaker 1: the least. Where Uh, Jody Foster extolling the virtues of

933
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:15,880
Speaker 1: Jordy Nelson for a few minutes was something I did

934
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:21,040
Speaker 1: not see coming. That was great. Man who loves ball?

935
00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:22,439
Speaker 1: To Stone Street loves ball?

936
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:28,400
Speaker 2: My god? And he oh he is he's.

937
00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:31,640
Speaker 1: Die hard photographic memory. But I wasn't surprised by that.

938
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:36,319
Speaker 1: I don't know, that's a good one. Who else knows ball?

939
00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:40,479
Speaker 1: Sometimes though they could know ball, and I don't talk

940
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:42,080
Speaker 1: with them about it because I want to know more

941
00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:44,839
Speaker 1: about their TV and movies and stuff stuff like that,

942
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,480
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Yea, some celebs come on

943
00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:50,960
Speaker 1: and they they love talking sports because they don't get

944
00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:54,360
Speaker 1: an opportunity when they're on their promo tall tours talking

945
00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:56,799
Speaker 1: about sports. But then on the back end of it,

946
00:46:57,239 --> 00:46:59,879
Speaker 1: you know, some celebrities are concerned about coming on because

947
00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:01,440
Speaker 1: they feel like I'm gonna quiz them on a four

948
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:04,680
Speaker 1: to three defense and expose them for not being sports fans.

949
00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:07,960
Speaker 1: And I will never do that, like ever, But what.

950
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:09,560
Speaker 2: Would the quiz question be of the fourth three D?

951
00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:13,640
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just used that as I have

952
00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 1: no idea. I know football, I have no idea, but yeah,

953

Speaker 2: Of TV and movies.

963
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:53,040
Speaker 1: And when the show first started, you know, a lot

964
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:55,640
Speaker 1: of pushback came from the radio side of things, where

965
00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:59,000
Speaker 1: they wanted me to talk more sports, and I just

966

971
00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:13,239
Speaker 2: go around where the game took place. This game took

972
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:16,120

Speaker 2: I've never seen a Fast and Furious, not.

986
00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:57,840
Speaker 1: One single, not missing a whole lot. I don't grudge people.

987
00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:00,520
Speaker 1: I don't begrudge people who like being fast or furious.

988
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:03,400
Speaker 1: I've never seen one of them. But Manit Brothers is

989
00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:07,239

994
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:25,839
Speaker 1: Bad football wasn't like bad football. Can't stand when we're

995
00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:28,279
Speaker 1: on game day morning and stuff like, you know, the

996

Speaker 1: You know, I can't stand it.

1000
00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:39,480
Speaker 2: Real football guys don't like it.

1001
00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:42,520

00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:48,520
Speaker 1: I forgot that.

1005
00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:50,759
Speaker 2: Did they use it this year? Because I remember they

1006
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:53,720
Speaker 2: did in twenty twelve with us and it was awful.

1007
00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:55,839
Speaker 1: This was a replacement And that was the fail Mary year,

1008
00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:58,480
Speaker 1: wasn't it was? Yeah, that was the end of that.

1009
00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:00,840
Speaker 2: I got an OPI on that with those guys.

1010
00:50:01,280 --> 00:50:05,839
Speaker 1: The fail Mary ended the situation that was going down.

1011
00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:06,759
Speaker 1: I was like, that was enough.

1012
00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:10,000
Speaker 2: Not full time employees though.

1013
00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:13,520
Speaker 1: I think some of them are as a good question, but.

1014
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:18,520
Speaker 2: Rays. You remember. I remember that Arizona Diamondbacks with freaking

1015
00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:21,520
Speaker 2: Randy Johnson on there. I remember. I was there.

1016
00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:25,680
Speaker 1: I was there. Oh my god, I covered it for

1017
00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:26,800
Speaker 1: ESPN Radio.

1018
00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:29,600
Speaker 2: How was that as a Yankee fan? It sucked?

1019
00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:32,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, but I was there. I remember that

1020
00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:35,680
Speaker 1: that World Series two thousand and one, obviously after nine

1021
00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:39,200
Speaker 1: to eleven, and they're, you know, in Bank One Ballpark

1022
00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:44,120
Speaker 1: on Arizona, and they were saying right before the World

1023
00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:47,799
Speaker 1: Series that they would divert some aircraft because of you know,

1024
00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:51,439
Speaker 1: the the jitters that we were all having in October

1025
00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:55,480
Speaker 1: of two thousand and one, and that was in the

1026
00:50:55,520 --> 00:50:57,640
Speaker 1: flight path of the airport, and they didn't do it,

1027
00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:00,840
Speaker 1: and planes were flying overhead and we're like really, And

1028
00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:03,319
Speaker 1: then Game two they flew me back early because they

1029
00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:06,279
Speaker 1: had to do the in between Games two and three

1030
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:10,279
Speaker 1: Sports Center hits, so they flew me back with our

1031
00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:16,560
Speaker 1: guest analyst at the time, Buck Showalter. He would not

1032
00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:20,399
Speaker 1: only helped build the Yankees that went on to go

1033
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,920
Speaker 1: be dynastic without him and Joe Torre, but he was

1034
00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:28,280
Speaker 1: the one who was the initial manager of the Arizona

1035
00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:31,960
Speaker 1: Diamondbacks and helped design Bank One Ballpark He was telling

1036
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:36,360
Speaker 1: me a story about how he was running the periphery

1037
00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:40,680
Speaker 1: of the field one day and he's on the dirt

1038
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:43,040
Speaker 1: going from home plate to right field before he went

1039
00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:45,719
Speaker 1: around the warning track and kept making circles and we

1040
00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:49,319
Speaker 1: noticed something wrong with the foul poles. It's like, what

1041
00:51:49,360 --> 00:51:51,560
Speaker 1: the hell's going on? Something's weird. And then he was

1042
00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:54,040
Speaker 1: the second run around he realized what it was. They

1043
00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:57,400
Speaker 1: had planted the foul poles in Bank One Ballpark with

1044
00:51:57,520 --> 00:52:00,920
Speaker 1: the mesh on the outside in foul territory. You need

1045
00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:02,920
Speaker 1: to have them inside so it hits the mess. You know,

1046
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:06,160
Speaker 1: it's a fair ball. So he called somebody up going,

1047
00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:08,359
Speaker 1: we got to get the cranes back in here. They

1048
00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:11,600
Speaker 1: had to lift them up, twist them, put them back

1049
00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:15,040
Speaker 1: in the ground. So this was a guy who had built,

1050
00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:18,120
Speaker 1: helped build the ballpark and both teams and now they're

1051
00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,480
Speaker 1: playing each other in the World Series without him, and

1052
00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:22,319
Speaker 1: it was a tough one for him. But he was

1053
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:24,640
Speaker 1: a really good dude and I loved working with him.

1054
00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:28,720
Speaker 1: And Game three was the one where George Bush Junior,

1055
00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:33,680
Speaker 1: our president, threw the first pitch and there were snipers

1056
00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:37,799
Speaker 1: on the roof and friggin' Apache helicopters and the four

1057
00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:41,160
Speaker 1: train going past and in right field, and it was

1058
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:47,120
Speaker 1: wild in that ballpark, nerves jangling. But when w came

1059
00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:52,759
Speaker 1: out and threw that first pitch strikes him standing on

1060
00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:55,000
Speaker 1: the mound, I'll never forget that. We're recording this on

1061
00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:59,640
Speaker 1: nine to eleven. Actually, so this was while I'm telling

1062
00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:04,240
Speaker 1: the story right now that I'll never forget him standing

1063
00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:08,759
Speaker 1: on that mound in his bulletproof vest, basically telling everybody

1064
00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:11,920
Speaker 1: you you know, this may be a big fat target

1065
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:15,040
Speaker 1: this country and soft targets like this, and you may

1066
00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:18,080
Speaker 1: hate our culture, but I'm the president of the United States,

1067
00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:21,319
Speaker 1: and I'm standing on this mound right now, and I

1068
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:26,400
Speaker 1: am I am here, and watch me throw this first pitch,

1069
00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:30,160
Speaker 1: and he threw a bullet for a strike. Place went nuts.

1070
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:32,920
Speaker 1: I will never forget that in my entire life. I'm

1071
00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:36,080
Speaker 1: getting goosebumps just thinking about it. That was a World Series. Also,

1072
00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:39,960
Speaker 1: I know this is a game with names for football,

1073
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:42,120
Speaker 1: but that was the one where Derek Jeter hit his

1074
00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:46,239
Speaker 1: first It was mister November. Because of the lateness of

1075
00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:49,040
Speaker 1: the World Series because things were delayed due to nine

1076
00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:51,520
Speaker 1: to eleven, he was the first guy to homer in

1077
00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:54,560
Speaker 1: November because the game went into extras and went beyond midnight,

1078
00:53:54,600 --> 00:54:01,040
Speaker 1: and I was in Yankee Stadium underneath the stadium in

1079
00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:05,560
Speaker 1: the tunnels to get out to the field. There were

1080
00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:07,640
Speaker 1: only two of them because it was in the old

1081
00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:12,880
Speaker 1: Yankee Stadium, Okay, so you had to stand in that.

1082
00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:17,960
Speaker 1: All of the rights holders and media members had to

1083
00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:21,760
Speaker 1: line up in a tunnel to get out on the field.

1084
00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:25,520
Speaker 1: And it was Fox first because they had the World

1085
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:29,040
Speaker 1: Series TV rights, ESPN Radio second, we had the radio

1086
00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:31,960
Speaker 1: rights and everybody else in a pecking order behind me

1087
00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:38,279
Speaker 1: because I was the ESPN Radio interviewer postgame. And so

1088
00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:43,480
Speaker 1: with each passing moment as that game went into extra innings,

1089
00:54:44,719 --> 00:54:47,600
Speaker 1: depending on who was going to win, we had to

1090
00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:51,279
Speaker 1: be in the dugout of the winning team because the

1091
00:54:51,320 --> 00:54:54,320
Speaker 1: losing team had to use that dugout as the egress

1092
00:54:54,320 --> 00:54:57,920
Speaker 1: from the field back to their their their clubhouse. So

1093
00:54:57,960 --> 00:55:00,560
Speaker 1: we had to guess which team was winning, which was not.

1094
00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:03,640
Speaker 1: If you recall beyond Young Kim had blown a lead

1095
00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:05,359
Speaker 1: in the ninth, so we were lined up in the

1096
00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:08,760
Speaker 1: Cardinals and the Cardinal the Arizona Diamondbacks.

1097
00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:10,200
Speaker 2: Tunnel.

1098
00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:12,719
Speaker 1: Then I think it was Tino at the home run

1099
00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:14,319
Speaker 1: to tie, or it could have been Matt Sui had

1100
00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:16,200
Speaker 1: a home run where somebody had a home run to

1101
00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:22,200
Speaker 1: tie it. And we went running from the Diamondbacks Tunnel

1102
00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:24,959
Speaker 1: all the way through to the Yankee Tunnel to line

1103
00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:28,359
Speaker 1: up there and went back and forth with each half

1104
00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:30,719
Speaker 1: inning that was going. And it looked like, I know,

1105
00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:33,000
Speaker 1: I'm dating myself something called the Benny Hill Show where

1106
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:35,760
Speaker 1: we would run, you know, like run and it looked

1107
00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:38,680
Speaker 1: like you know, nurses because there were EMT officials that

1108
00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:41,960
Speaker 1: had to go with each one, camera operators, boom mics,

1109
00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:45,200
Speaker 1: people in suits and ties running from one thing to another.

1110
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:47,920
Speaker 1: So we're lined up in the Yankee Tunnel and we

1111
00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:52,440
Speaker 1: could not see anything, and our ears that were picking

1112
00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:55,880
Speaker 1: up the broadcast, we couldn't hear anything because we were

1113
00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:59,080
Speaker 1: in this tunnel that was built in like nineteen twenty something. Yeah,

1114
00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:02,560
Speaker 1: and I remember the so I was positioned in the

1115
00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:06,279
Speaker 1: one spot of the lineup that there was a doormouth

1116
00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:10,000
Speaker 1: of what I think like Babe Ruth's fluffer back in

1117
00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:12,520
Speaker 1: nineteen twenty four or whatever would be sitting in I

1118
00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:14,359
Speaker 1: have no idea. It was this small room and there

1119
00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:17,719
Speaker 1: was this little television that had it on and Jeter

1120
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:20,800
Speaker 1: was at the plate, and all of a sudden, I watched,

1121
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:23,400
Speaker 1: you know, the camera widen out, and I thought, oh

1122
00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:25,520
Speaker 1: my god, is that a home run? And then I

1123
00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:27,319
Speaker 1: knew it was a home run when I heard the

1124
00:56:27,360 --> 00:56:31,759
Speaker 1: stadium go nuts and shape and people screaming games over

1125
00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:35,560
Speaker 1: Jeter Homeward, go, go go, and people were pushing me,

1126
00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:38,560
Speaker 1: and we suddenly got spat out in the stadium. I'm

1127
00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:41,200
Speaker 1: getting goosebumps, just as I'm a Yankee fan from New

1128
00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:45,160
Speaker 1: York City. I get emotional. But this moment, like Jeter

1129
00:56:45,320 --> 00:56:48,080
Speaker 1: rounding third, coming home, and I look up and I

1130
00:56:48,080 --> 00:56:51,960
Speaker 1: see the entire stadium, fifty five thousand people going ape shit.

1131
00:56:53,239 --> 00:56:56,160
Speaker 1: And that was that game. And then it goes back

1132
00:56:56,200 --> 00:56:59,799
Speaker 1: to Arizona. Flew back there in this game seven. I'll

1133
00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:01,279
Speaker 1: know I never forget it. I was sitting in the

1134
00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:04,000
Speaker 1: stands with my future wife because she was covering it.

1135
00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:07,439
Speaker 1: Susie was covering it for Fox Sports Net. Shout and Susy,

1136
00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:09,520
Speaker 1: Shout out Susie. So I'm sitting with her. In the

1137
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:13,600
Speaker 1: eighth inning behind home plate and Mariano Rivera was coming

1138
00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:16,560
Speaker 1: out for a two outsave to win the World Series,

1139
00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:18,880
Speaker 1: and he mowed them down in the eighth inning, mowed

1140
00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:21,840
Speaker 1: him down after Soriano gave him a lead in the

1141
00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:24,640
Speaker 1: top of the eighth and he mowed them down. And

1142
00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:27,200
Speaker 1: we were in the live section of the Diamondbacks. They

1143
00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:31,160
Speaker 1: were crying because they knew this thing was over. And

1144
00:57:31,200 --> 00:57:33,919
Speaker 1: then the ninth inning hit and it was not over.

1145
00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:34,720
Speaker 2: It was not over.

1146
00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:39,000
Speaker 1: And I will never forget that. And the ultimate ultimate

1147
00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:42,680
Speaker 1: kick in the dick of that thing for me because

1148
00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:45,200
Speaker 1: I covered, you know, I was straight up fine covering

1149
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:47,640
Speaker 1: all of this stuff. But as a Yankee fan, I

1150
00:57:47,720 --> 00:57:50,640
Speaker 1: went into their locker room after the game. There's Steinberner

1151
00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:52,800
Speaker 1: and his white Dicky and the Yankees role kind of

1152
00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:57,200
Speaker 1: you know, like depressed or whatever. I found out that

1153
00:57:57,280 --> 00:58:01,240
Speaker 1: a New York Yankee handed a bait baseball to my

1154
00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:04,640
Speaker 1: at the time fiance soon to be future wife with

1155
00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:08,360
Speaker 1: his phone number on it. Smart man, I'm like, smart

1156
00:58:08,360 --> 00:58:11,760
Speaker 1: move which which guy I can't sing? Well, hopefully it

1157
00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:12,800
Speaker 1: wasn't mister November.

1158
00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:14,640
Speaker 2: It hopefully gift basket.

1159
00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:18,240
Speaker 1: No, because ex excuse me, Jeter is a lot more

1160
00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:20,400
Speaker 1: discreet than that, or at least he was at the time.

1161
00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:21,160
Speaker 2: Do you think it.

1162
00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:23,560
Speaker 1: I had no idea I would be telling my stories

1163
00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:26,120
Speaker 1: of the nineteen of the two thousand and one World Series.

1164
00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:29,000
Speaker 1: But that's from my ESPN one point zero years. I

1165
00:58:29,040 --> 00:58:34,760
Speaker 1: covered the World Series from ninety seven on site all

1166
00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:38,760
Speaker 1: the way through to the Angels and Giants in two

1167
00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:39,400
Speaker 1: thousand and two.

1168
00:58:39,520 --> 00:58:41,560
Speaker 2: Could have got one of the gift bags.

1169
00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:44,640
Speaker 1: No, it wasn't him. It wasn't him, but it was

Speaker 2: Okay, the game there we go. Oh man, how about

Speaker 1: You expect those stories from this?

1176
00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:04,000
Speaker 2: Why we do?

1177
00:59:05,360 --> 00:59:07,400
Speaker 1: Because you never know what you pop it off. You

1178
00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:09,760
Speaker 1: never know where you're going. Mayn you never know where

00:59:50,600 --> 00:59:54,800
Speaker 1: Was a team Seymour, Tyler, ty Law, Matt one of

1195
00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:57,720

Speaker 1: that guy's man coming through.

1198
01:00:05,400 --> 01:00:08,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, what were your thought of these Pats this year

1199
01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:10,280
Speaker 2: when before you oh this year?

1200
01:00:10,400 --> 01:00:14,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean one listen, like, good luck to him,

1201
01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:20,640
Speaker 1: you know obviously you know, uh who knew Nobody knew,

1202
01:00:20,800 --> 01:00:22,640
Speaker 1: like good luck to him. Bledsoe was the one hundred

1203
01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:25,600
Speaker 1: million dollar man, and Belichick was, you know, in year

1204
01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:30,000
Speaker 1: two coming from obviously is uh. They bounced Pete Carroll

1205
01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:32,760
Speaker 1: a couple of years before for a guy that you

1206
01:00:32,800 --> 01:00:36,360
Speaker 1: know was Parcels's guy who had some run in Cleveland

1207
01:00:36,360 --> 01:00:39,280
Speaker 1: but was also known for doing it things his way

1208
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:42,440
Speaker 1: and and then it wound up being the highway. You know,

1209
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:47,320
Speaker 1: so nobody knew. Nobody knew that Richard Seymour was going

1210
01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:49,120
Speaker 1: to be a Hall of Famer, or Bruski was going

1211
01:00:49,200 --> 01:00:51,600
Speaker 1: to be such a heart and soul or your guy

1212
01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:55,080
Speaker 1: Rabes right there and you know what would be. But

1213
01:00:55,200 --> 01:00:59,440
Speaker 1: McGinnis obviously was a guy that we knew was a

1214
01:00:59,520 --> 01:01:05,480
Speaker 1: signific ficking threat on defense, you know. But absolutely nobody

1215
01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:08,360
Speaker 1: saw Tom Brady come in. Although from what I've heard

1216
01:01:08,600 --> 01:01:13,120
Speaker 1: of all the stories is that Brady had the better summer.

1217
01:01:14,280 --> 01:01:16,520
Speaker 1: That's what have you heard that story? Not that he

1218
01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:19,120
Speaker 1: was in training camp. He was showing some stuff that

1219
01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:20,640
Speaker 1: like that he was.

1220
01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:23,600
Speaker 2: They were saying that. They said he started as third

1221
01:01:23,760 --> 01:01:26,000
Speaker 2: and then he got put into the.

1222
01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:28,880
Speaker 1: Clearly they're not going to kiss his second year guy

1223
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:32,120
Speaker 1: six round pick onehund and overall so good, he's going

1224
01:01:32,120 --> 01:01:33,360
Speaker 1: to take the job. And the guy that we just

1225
01:01:33,400 --> 01:01:36,680
Speaker 1: gave a nine figure contract to like that what happened,

1226
01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:40,520
Speaker 1: which is why when when Belichick did stick with Brady,

1227
01:01:40,600 --> 01:01:42,840
Speaker 1: that took some serious church bells man.

1228
01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:44,640
Speaker 2: That that was that's crazy.

1229
01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:47,360
Speaker 3: I think Ernie Adams tells us before the Super Bowl,

1230
01:01:47,360 --> 01:01:49,440
Speaker 3: because there was the Bill Drew bedso.

1231
01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:51,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, Ledsoe came in and had to wrap up the

1232
01:01:51,680 --> 01:01:52,680
Speaker 1: AFC championship.

1233
01:01:52,720 --> 01:01:53,400
Speaker 2: The Steelers.

1234
01:01:53,480 --> 01:01:55,000
Speaker 1: Ernie said that, which is by the way, a very

1235
01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:59,040
Speaker 1: Gealen hurts to a situation college for later.

1236
01:01:59,120 --> 01:02:01,400
Speaker 3: You know, he said they didn't think about it twice.

1237
01:02:01,600 --> 01:02:03,080
Speaker 3: They knew Tom was the guy in the super Bowl,

1238
01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:03,640
Speaker 3: not a question.

1239
01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:05,200
Speaker 2: Oh so that was all of a.

1240
01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:07,360
Speaker 1: Media story about going to the Super Bowl, whether Drew was.

1241
01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:08,440
Speaker 4: Gonna play or whatnot, and all that.

1242
01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:11,640
Speaker 2: But it still takes some kohonas oh absolutely to do that.

1243
01:02:11,720 --> 01:02:14,880
Speaker 1: Well, certainly when you thought you've done it once already

1244
01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:18,400
Speaker 1: to say we're sticking with Tom not going back to Bledsoe,

1245
01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:21,960
Speaker 1: and that was tough enough and enough of an issue

1246
01:02:22,120 --> 01:02:24,200
Speaker 1: to be discussed that you've turned a page from that,

1247
01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:26,960
Speaker 1: you then had to do it again. Yeah, you know

1248
01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:31,760
Speaker 1: that you then had to reassert could not have been easy,

1249
01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:36,080
Speaker 1: certainly when another guy was hurt. But for bled Soa

1250
01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:39,919
Speaker 1: basically like, yeah, one hundred million dollars contract, lost my job.

1251
01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:41,840
Speaker 1: Now I'm gonna come in, I'm gonna beat Pittsburgh in

1252
01:02:41,880 --> 01:02:47,400
Speaker 1: the AFC Championship game. When pressed into service, unreal, unreal,

1253
01:02:47,600 --> 01:02:49,320
Speaker 1: it was huge and really unbelievable.

01:02:49,480 --> 01:02:52,160
Speaker 5: We got an and we had worth noting year started

1255

Speaker 5: one in three one eight of the last ten.

1256
01:02:55,160 --> 01:02:57,360
Speaker 1: We know how this season ended, but slow starting, you

1257
01:02:57,360 --> 01:02:58,600
Speaker 1: can still win a super Bowl like you guys did

1258
01:02:58,640 --> 01:03:00,280
Speaker 1: that when your jewels we did. We start one and

1259
01:03:00,360 --> 01:03:03,960

1264
01:03:18,760 --> 01:03:21,919
Speaker 2: For good reason. But what right doing on?

1265
01:03:22,040 --> 01:03:24,360
Speaker 1: Moving on? The one thing I don't remember about the

1266
01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:26,160
Speaker 1: names that were gaming, This is true.

1267
01:03:26,280 --> 01:03:28,920
Speaker 5: But there is one great game with a name that season,

1268
01:03:29,120 --> 01:03:30,200
Speaker 5: the Monday Night Miracle.

1269
01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:32,439
Speaker 1: That's right, I saw that one. I just talked about

1270
01:03:32,480 --> 01:03:33,160
Speaker 1: that without Michael.

1271
01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:36,600
Speaker 2: Michael, the fact that Arnold was Booth.

1272
01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:39,040
Speaker 1: Saying I think Grane Corbet's gonna do something later on.

1273
01:03:39,080 --> 01:03:41,760
Speaker 1: And it was thirty one seven at the time or whatever. Yeah,

1274
01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:43,640
Speaker 1: I just brought that up with Al he was on

1275
01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:46,680
Speaker 1: my show this past Monday coming off, because I it

1276
01:03:46,720 --> 01:03:48,800
Speaker 1: was the day after the Bills and the Ravens played

1277
01:03:48,800 --> 01:03:51,840
Speaker 1: that insane Sunday night or were referring to earlier in

1278
01:03:51,880 --> 01:03:55,800
Speaker 1: the show here that I asked him, I'm like, what

1279
01:03:56,040 --> 01:03:59,080
Speaker 1: game from your career was, like, I don't know where

1280
01:03:59,560 --> 01:04:03,320
Speaker 1: Big U come back? Whole country watching that stands out

1281
01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:05,520
Speaker 1: to you. It's just like the Bills and Ravens. And

1282
01:04:05,520 --> 01:04:08,200
Speaker 1: he mentioned that Miracle at the Metal Lands, which, by

1283
01:04:08,240 --> 01:04:12,760
Speaker 1: the way, was the off night in between games two

1284
01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:17,240
Speaker 1: and three of the Mets Yankees Subway series, you know,

1285
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:20,000
Speaker 1: which leads me, but that was that was the two

1286
01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:22,000
Speaker 1: thousand season. I don't think the Miracle at the Metal

1287
01:04:22,040 --> 01:04:24,520
Speaker 1: Lands was this year, to be honestly, unless that was

1288
01:04:24,520 --> 01:04:25,160
Speaker 1: the Al Grosser.

1289
01:04:27,280 --> 01:04:29,520
Speaker 2: That was the one bright spot that was not forgettable.

1290
01:04:29,120 --> 01:04:31,040
Speaker 1: That, Yeah, but I'll never forget that because that was

1291
01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:33,600
Speaker 1: the you know, Subway series, and I was covering that

1292
01:04:33,720 --> 01:04:36,200
Speaker 1: World series as well, and a lot of people are like,

1293
01:04:36,200 --> 01:04:38,080
Speaker 1: what are we gonna do in between games two and

1294
01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:40,080
Speaker 1: three and there's no travel day. It's just like, oh,

1295
01:04:40,080 --> 01:04:41,880
Speaker 1: there's a Monday night or let's go check it out.

1296
01:04:42,280 --> 01:04:45,200
Speaker 1: I wasn't there, but we went to some like club

1297
01:04:45,880 --> 01:04:50,960
Speaker 1: and watched it there. Unbelievable, but yeah, I mean herm

1298
01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:53,160
Speaker 1: being brought in and you could see him wearing that.

1299
01:04:53,560 --> 01:04:55,840
Speaker 1: I think that's an FDN y hat coming on out

1300
01:04:55,840 --> 01:05:00,920
Speaker 1: there on that day. And you know, and him needing

1301
01:05:00,960 --> 01:05:04,160
Speaker 1: to you know at the time, you know, to be

1302
01:05:04,320 --> 01:05:06,600
Speaker 1: very honest with you, certainly coming off the year before,

1303
01:05:06,720 --> 01:05:12,720
Speaker 1: the big Jets rival was the Dolphins. But this was

1304
01:05:12,800 --> 01:05:18,240
Speaker 1: the beginning of the Jets Patriots rivalry as we currently

1305
01:05:18,320 --> 01:05:21,840
Speaker 1: know it because of the cocktail napkin that Bill Belichick

1306
01:05:21,920 --> 01:05:25,120
Speaker 1: sign is resigning as the HC of the nyj and

1307
01:05:25,200 --> 01:05:28,520
Speaker 1: the Jets had already taken Curtis Martin from New England,

1308
01:05:29,080 --> 01:05:33,920
Speaker 1: and you know, figurative shots had been fired there. And

1309
01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:37,600
Speaker 1: you know, of course the Jets are the ones who

1310
01:05:37,640 --> 01:05:41,640
Speaker 1: helped usher in the watershed moment for the other part

1311
01:05:41,640 --> 01:05:46,880
Speaker 1: of the franchise rivalry. Yeah, man, I mean mo Lewis

1312
01:05:46,920 --> 01:05:50,120
Speaker 1: blew up drew Bledsoe in this game, and nobody knew

1313
01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:52,760
Speaker 1: how serious it was. I mean, it was really serious. Die.

1314
01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:55,440
Speaker 2: Oh my god. Now I got one question? What is

1315
01:05:55,480 --> 01:06:00,200
Speaker 2: it like being a Jets fan? Can I answer this

1316
01:06:00,280 --> 01:06:03,240
Speaker 2: question with a what is it like being an asshole? What?

1317
01:06:03,640 --> 01:06:07,120
Speaker 2: I really want to like? You haven't had a front

1318
01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:11,080
Speaker 2: row seat? Come on, like you have been a seat retired.

1319
01:06:11,160 --> 01:06:12,960
Speaker 2: I was only on the East Coast for twelve years.

1320
01:06:13,320 --> 01:06:18,600
Speaker 1: Commonules like being a Jet fan? I mean Yeah, it's tough.

1321
01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:21,120
Speaker 1: Like what else, like name something that's tough in your life.

1322
01:06:21,160 --> 01:06:22,800
Speaker 1: I know things have been really good for you, but

1323
01:06:23,440 --> 01:06:26,520
Speaker 1: I mean it's not it's not easy. It's you're like wondering,

1324
01:06:26,600 --> 01:06:31,160
Speaker 1: like what what happened to piss off the football gods

1325
01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:36,000
Speaker 1: so significantly that there's a nards kicking that's an annual

1326
01:06:36,240 --> 01:06:40,560
Speaker 1: thing for the football gods? And you know, and sometimes

1327
01:06:40,560 --> 01:06:43,320
Speaker 1: they come in like forms like you know, Elijah Vera

1328
01:06:43,440 --> 01:06:46,480
Speaker 1: Tucker having a triceps injury and a practice before week

1329
01:06:46,520 --> 01:06:48,360
Speaker 1: one of a season that knocks him out for the

1330
01:06:48,480 --> 01:06:50,840
Speaker 1: entire of the season. Just to be most recent, or

1331
01:06:51,360 --> 01:06:54,080
Speaker 1: having all eggs put in a very exciting Aaron Rodgers

1332
01:06:54,080 --> 01:06:57,880
Speaker 1: basket only to have an achilles pop vive snaps into

1333
01:06:57,920 --> 01:06:59,840
Speaker 1: his time tenure. I mean, I could go on and on.

1334
01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:03,160
Speaker 1: It's not great. He didn't have name it though. Well,

1335
01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:04,920
Speaker 1: I mean that was the year I was born and

1336
01:07:04,920 --> 01:07:08,160
Speaker 1: I'm six years old. That'll go down for it, No,

1337
01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:10,680
Speaker 1: I know, but you're supposed to update things, you know,

1338
01:07:10,760 --> 01:07:12,960
Speaker 1: things are supposed to improve over the span of say

1339
01:07:13,000 --> 01:07:15,680
Speaker 1: half a century, But I don't know.

1340
01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:19,080
Speaker 2: I mean, times are looking good. It was a good loss, Jack.

1341
01:07:19,160 --> 01:07:20,680
Speaker 2: Let's get into the game before you know the game.

1342
01:07:20,680 --> 01:07:22,280
Speaker 2: We got a shadowed a couple of these Jets guys.

1343
01:07:22,320 --> 01:07:25,200
Speaker 2: We love talking dudes over here. Curtis Martin, Hall of Famer,

1347
01:07:36,120 --> 01:07:37,840
Speaker 1: a gretty year the team. You know, the year the

1348
01:07:37,920 --> 01:07:44,800
Speaker 1: Jets made the AFC Championship game, went over ourselves, Yeah,

1349
01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:48,080
Speaker 1: they went over. They made the AFC Championship game with Parcels.

1350
01:07:48,080 --> 01:07:51,600
Speaker 1: It was my second year on Sports Center. So I

1351
01:07:51,640 --> 01:07:54,400
Speaker 1: went to Denver for that AFC Championship game and sat

1352
01:07:54,440 --> 01:07:57,720
Speaker 1: into the second to last row of Mile High Stadium

1353
01:07:57,760 --> 01:08:01,160
Speaker 1: with my camp Low condo Wesley Talker New York Jets

1354
01:08:01,240 --> 01:08:02,640
Speaker 1: jersey that I had when I was a kid that

1355
01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:05,240
Speaker 1: still fit me when I was a thirty four year

1356
01:08:05,280 --> 01:08:07,320
Speaker 1: old man, and I was very very proud of myself,

1357
01:08:07,440 --> 01:08:10,960
Speaker 1: or actually was twenty seven at the time, so I

1358
01:08:11,040 --> 01:08:12,560
Speaker 1: was very proud of myself. And I went there and

1359
01:08:12,600 --> 01:08:16,320
Speaker 1: I watched two Bill Parcells guys, and Dave Meggett and

1360
01:08:16,880 --> 01:08:20,479
Speaker 1: Keith Buyer's fumble. One of them was Meggot just letting

1361
01:08:20,479 --> 01:08:23,080
Speaker 1: the opening kickoff of the second half with the Jets

1362
01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:26,439
Speaker 1: leading at halftime, having a very quiet Mile High stadium.

1363
01:08:26,760 --> 01:08:30,040
Speaker 1: Watched him just let it hit the ground and turn

1364
01:08:30,080 --> 01:08:32,320
Speaker 1: it over and then the rest was just an awful

1365
01:08:32,360 --> 01:08:34,120
Speaker 1: rest of the afternoon. The reason why I bring all

1366
01:08:34,120 --> 01:08:37,280
Speaker 1: that up is the next year was supposed to be

1367
01:08:37,360 --> 01:08:40,320
Speaker 1: it because they went to the AFC Championship, bringing everyone

1368
01:08:40,360 --> 01:08:44,160
Speaker 1: back right and here was that home opener, and it

1369
01:08:44,320 --> 01:08:47,439
Speaker 1: was great. It was awesome to feel like this could

1370
01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:50,040
Speaker 1: be finally, Jets your parcels and we made the AFC

1371
01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:52,120

01:09:33,520 --> 01:09:35,760
Speaker 5: Jets in week one. Uh, the Pats dropped it to

1389
01:09:35,840 --> 01:09:39,240
Speaker 5: cinsa fory dyllon Uh. The Jets had won previous four

1390
01:09:39,280 --> 01:09:43,240
Speaker 5: meetings in this series. Less game was postponed due to

1391
01:09:43,240 --> 01:09:45,120
Speaker 5: the nine to eleven ATTAXA. Yes, we mentioned earlier.

1392
01:09:44,920 --> 01:09:46,840
Speaker 1: Andrews he ran out with a flag? Did he brought

1393
01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:49,000
Speaker 1: his achilles five snaps into the game after carrying a

1394
01:09:49,040 --> 01:09:53,360
Speaker 1: flag on a nine to eleven celebration or commemoration? You

1395
01:09:53,360 --> 01:09:56,360
Speaker 1: know that happened with Aaron Rodgers. What else?

1396
01:09:57,200 --> 01:09:58,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was. That's pretty much it for the lead up.

1397
01:09:58,720 --> 01:09:59,960
Speaker 2: This is week too, so not a lot of football.

1398
01:10:00,040 --> 01:10:00,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, lead up.

1399
01:10:01,439 --> 01:10:04,439
Speaker 2: We'll be right back after this quick break. Should we

1400
01:10:04,479 --> 01:10:07,800
Speaker 2: hit the game here? And we should? First half sloppy,

1401
01:10:08,320 --> 01:10:12,320
Speaker 2: greedy scoring, not the greatest football. Kurt Warner wouldn't like it,

1402
01:10:12,400 --> 01:10:14,160
Speaker 2: Ernie wouldn't like it. Bad football.

1403
01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:17,720
Speaker 5: Six punts two field goals, two Patriot turnovers, and a

1404
01:10:17,720 --> 01:10:20,200
Speaker 5: little bit of foreshadowing. In the second quarter, a tuck

1405
01:10:20,320 --> 01:10:24,040
Speaker 5: rule extended the Jets drive. Irony, I didn't know that

1406
01:10:24,200 --> 01:10:26,560
Speaker 5: tuck rule rule ties this thing up leads to a

1407
01:10:26,600 --> 01:10:28,320
Speaker 5: Jets field goal. We're going to a half three.

1408
01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:29,960
Speaker 1: By the way, in the same way, this is called

1409
01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:33,840
Speaker 1: the mo Lewis game for you, right, it's not called

1410
01:10:33,840 --> 01:10:36,320
Speaker 1: the tuck rule game in New England, isn't What are

1411
01:10:36,320 --> 01:10:38,519
Speaker 1: you talking about? The tuck rule game is the way

1412
01:10:38,600 --> 01:10:42,240
Speaker 1: we all referred to you mean, the snow game. Talk

1413
01:10:42,280 --> 01:10:44,960
Speaker 1: to anybody who's from the Patriots, the Patriots fan base,

1414
01:10:45,080 --> 01:10:47,040
Speaker 1: or anyone from New England, it's called the snow game.

1415
01:10:47,160 --> 01:10:48,400
Speaker 2: Like there's been a.

1416
01:10:48,320 --> 01:10:50,960
Speaker 1: Lot of games with snow, but this is where you

1417
01:10:50,960 --> 01:10:57,479
Speaker 1: could refer to many games as the snow game in

1418
01:10:57,560 --> 01:11:00,599
Speaker 1: New England history prior to that particular night where there

1419
01:11:00,640 --> 01:11:04,080
Speaker 1: was a tuck rule moment, by the way, appropriately called

1420
01:11:04,360 --> 01:11:06,519
Speaker 1: I'm not one of those tuck rule truthers.

1421
01:11:06,560 --> 01:11:07,160
Speaker 2: I'm not one of them.

1422
01:11:07,640 --> 01:11:09,360
Speaker 1: It was one hundred percent the rule book. It was

1423
01:11:09,400 --> 01:11:10,960
Speaker 1: so stupid that it was in the rule book, but

1424
01:11:10,960 --> 01:11:13,679
Speaker 1: it was one the right thing. And you know, Charles

1425
01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:16,559
Speaker 1: Woodson is one of I've got a lot of In fact,

1426
01:11:16,560 --> 01:11:18,439
Speaker 1: there was two Michigan men of all time meeting in

1427
01:11:18,479 --> 01:11:22,080
Speaker 1: that pocket is really ridiculous. But but you know, like

1428
01:11:22,120 --> 01:11:24,519
Speaker 1: in New England's history, that's that snow game. Could be

1429
01:11:24,560 --> 01:11:30,240
Speaker 1: the one where the guy on work release snowplow. That's game,

1430
01:11:30,320 --> 01:11:34,400
Speaker 1: that snow game, Snow Game one two. I'm sorry, we

1431
01:11:34,439 --> 01:11:36,000
Speaker 1: did that game. Telling your stories.

1432
01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:36,800
Speaker 2: We did this.

1433
01:11:36,840 --> 01:11:38,599
Speaker 3: We did that game of Scott Pioli and we you know,

1434
01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:41,719
Speaker 3: we are the aforementioned you know show on games with names.

1435
01:11:41,880 --> 01:11:43,160
Speaker 4: We determined what the final score.

1436
01:11:43,400 --> 01:11:47,559
Speaker 3: The name of the game is that snow the Snow Game,

1437
01:11:47,640 --> 01:11:49,559
Speaker 3: Snow Bowl Game, Snow Bowl Game.

1438
01:11:49,720 --> 01:11:52,280
Speaker 1: Okay, but everyone else in the in the New England

1439
01:11:52,360 --> 01:11:52,800
Speaker 1: never heard it.

1440
01:11:53,760 --> 01:11:55,680
Speaker 2: Called tuck rule.

1441
01:11:56,520 --> 01:11:58,840
Speaker 1: Dan Deardorff, Michigan man calling the game. I didn't know

1442
01:11:58,880 --> 01:12:01,599
Speaker 1: it was Enburg and Diardorf. Pretty cool, pretty good, pretty

1443
01:12:01,640 --> 01:12:03,040
Speaker 1: good crew calling his back.

1444
01:12:03,120 --> 01:12:06,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's right into the second half, Patriots start out,

1445
01:12:06,680 --> 01:12:07,320
Speaker 5: We're moving the ball.

1446
01:12:07,400 --> 01:12:09,400
Speaker 2: Drew starts out five for five, but.

1447
01:12:10,360 --> 01:12:13,080
Speaker 5: It would end in a Mark Edwards fumble, as would

1448
01:12:13,160 --> 01:12:15,160
Speaker 5: another drive later in the game that would set up

1449
01:12:15,160 --> 01:12:18,160
Speaker 5: the loan touchdown of this game. Curtis Martin caps off

1450
01:12:18,160 --> 01:12:20,760
Speaker 5: a twelve play ninety three yard drive. Jets go ten

1451
01:12:20,800 --> 01:12:24,280
Speaker 5: to seven. Curtis my favorite Martin.

1452
01:12:24,640 --> 01:12:28,240
Speaker 2: As Chris Berman likes. I like it. Trade punts again

1453
01:12:28,280 --> 01:12:28,839
Speaker 2: in the fourth.

1454
01:12:28,880 --> 01:12:30,639
Speaker 1: I take us to the take us to the play.

1455
01:12:31,080 --> 01:12:33,479
Speaker 2: I mean this happened in the fourth. The stage here,

1456
01:12:33,520 --> 01:12:35,240
Speaker 2: baby five eleven.

1457
01:12:35,160 --> 01:12:38,040
Speaker 1: Us got out, almost got out of it without bringing

1458
01:12:38,040 --> 01:12:40,200
Speaker 1: in Brady. Almost got almost got out.

1459
01:12:40,320 --> 01:12:44,000
Speaker 5: Almost five eleven left in the fourth, still trailing ten

1460
01:12:44,040 --> 01:12:47,240
Speaker 5: to three, third and ten on their own nineteen. So

1461
01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:51,200
Speaker 5: drops back, rolls right, avoids pressure, takes off up the sideline,

1462
01:12:51,280 --> 01:12:52,200
Speaker 5: right by the sticks.

1463
01:12:52,400 --> 01:12:53,280
Speaker 2: He's almost at the line.

1464
01:12:53,320 --> 01:12:56,439
Speaker 1: The game collides with mo Lewis that hit that we

1465
01:12:56,479 --> 01:13:01,400
Speaker 1: were all here to talk about, the only slidd You don't.

1466
01:13:01,280 --> 01:13:01,920
Speaker 2: Think he saw them.

1467
01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:04,759
Speaker 1: Dude, you'd be living in a one bedroom apartment somewhere

1468
01:13:04,840 --> 01:13:06,799
Speaker 1: right now. If if he slid right now.

1469
01:13:07,080 --> 01:13:11,000
Speaker 2: You may and like you'd like venice, Yeah.

1470
01:13:10,520 --> 01:13:12,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, you'd be in. You'd be in like a

1471
01:13:13,080 --> 01:13:16,080
Speaker 1: like a you know, like a lean to somewhere. I'd

1472
01:13:16,080 --> 01:13:19,439
Speaker 1: probably be in, like go to have this podcast setup.

1473
01:13:19,439 --> 01:13:20,439
Speaker 1: Look at all this stuff.

1474
01:13:20,680 --> 01:13:22,720
Speaker 3: Do you believe in? Like the butterfly effect of this game.

1475
01:13:22,800 --> 01:13:26,080
Speaker 3: Or was Tom Brady inevitable? Oh, I don't know if

1476
01:13:26,120 --> 01:13:29,679
Speaker 3: he was inevitable. I believe in the butterfly effect. Listen,

1477
01:13:30,479 --> 01:13:36,240
Speaker 3: I'm having my fun obviously. But Tom Brady is a

1478
01:13:36,280 --> 01:13:40,519
Speaker 3: self made man, okay, and you know you are too.

1479
01:13:41,360 --> 01:13:47,240
Speaker 3: And it's just opportunities knocking and him busting the door

1480
01:13:47,560 --> 01:13:51,639
Speaker 3: right down and everybody else around him doing the same

1481
01:13:52,000 --> 01:13:52,919
Speaker 3: for twenty years.

1482
01:13:53,240 --> 01:13:55,400
Speaker 1: I mean, that's it. Would he have come in though,

1483
01:13:56,320 --> 01:13:59,639
Speaker 1: I don't know. Man, one hundred million dollar contracts tough.

1484
01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:03,240
Speaker 1: I don't think they were benching Bledsoe for production in

1485
01:14:03,320 --> 01:14:07,439
Speaker 1: issues you think Bill would have pulled him for I

1486
01:14:07,439 --> 01:14:11,000
Speaker 1: shouldn't say that. Bill's the one who told Cleveland Bernie Kosar,

1487
01:14:11,040 --> 01:14:13,960
Speaker 1: ain't it so? And that's part of the reason why.

1488
01:14:14,000 --> 01:14:17,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he paid him, That's true. He paid him.

1489
01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:19,080
Speaker 2: He was there for a year, then they paid.

1490
01:14:18,880 --> 01:14:22,840
Speaker 1: Him, right, So I don't think. I don't think performance

1491
01:14:22,920 --> 01:14:26,800
Speaker 1: issues would have brought Brady in at all. But again,

1492
01:14:27,880 --> 01:14:31,719
Speaker 1: you look back at that year, it took serious. Listen,

1493
01:14:32,520 --> 01:14:35,760
Speaker 1: the stupidest conversation in the twenty three years I have

1494
01:14:35,880 --> 01:14:41,760
Speaker 1: been in NFL media is who's more valuable Brady or Belichick?

1495
01:14:42,080 --> 01:14:45,599
Speaker 1: Who is and stop it, stop it, you know, because

1496
01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:49,080
Speaker 1: because the bottom line, you think, well, for the first

1497
01:14:49,240 --> 01:14:52,799
Speaker 1: year of Brady's career, it was Bill. I mean, Bill's

1498
01:14:52,800 --> 01:14:54,200
Speaker 1: the one who had to sit there and go, we're

1499
01:14:54,200 --> 01:14:57,120
Speaker 1: sticking with Brady, not once but twice twice, and then

1500
01:14:57,160 --> 01:14:59,599
Speaker 1: it went over to Brady at some point. It did

1501
01:15:00,560 --> 01:15:05,479
Speaker 1: when Rich I don't know, when you caught one off

1502
01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:08,479
Speaker 1: every are those the marks from the football is hitting

1503
01:15:08,479 --> 01:15:11,120
Speaker 1: your knees? Okay? It correct?

1504
01:15:11,240 --> 01:15:11,599
Speaker 2: I don't know.

1505
01:15:11,640 --> 01:15:16,960
Speaker 1: I mean honestly though, I mean, but the marriage between

1506
01:15:17,000 --> 01:15:20,719
Speaker 1: the two of them, like Belichick needed somebody as great

1507
01:15:20,720 --> 01:15:24,040
Speaker 1: as Tom to be as coachable as Tom, to be

1508
01:15:24,120 --> 01:15:27,000
Speaker 1: an avatar for his ways of doing things as Tom.

1509
01:15:27,080 --> 01:15:31,160
Speaker 1: For some Tom to be as compliant at times as Tom,

1510
01:15:31,520 --> 01:15:33,439
Speaker 1: to be the one to take the beating in the

1511
01:15:33,479 --> 01:15:36,680
Speaker 1: film rooms and be able to just say, fuck it,

1512
01:15:36,800 --> 01:15:40,200
Speaker 1: I'm Tom Brady, I got this, you know, like and

1513
01:15:40,200 --> 01:15:43,439
Speaker 1: and Tom needed to have a coach that that put

1514
01:15:43,479 --> 01:15:47,400
Speaker 1: things together in a certain way and surround Tom and

1515
01:15:47,479 --> 01:15:50,519
Speaker 1: after a while, at some point I'm sure Tom felt

1516
01:15:50,520 --> 01:15:52,160
Speaker 1: you you had a probably a front row seat for

1517
01:15:52,160 --> 01:15:54,440
Speaker 1: this too, where he felt a little bit more independent,

1518
01:15:54,920 --> 01:15:59,720
Speaker 1: needed certain things that made him healthier and happier.

1519
01:15:59,520 --> 01:16:02,599
Speaker 2: And I don't know what you're talking about. I know, okay,

1520
01:16:02,760 --> 01:16:03,439
Speaker 2: are you talking about that?

1521
01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:06,320
Speaker 1: I'm surprised not to see any Guerrero Project products in

1522
01:16:06,360 --> 01:16:07,400
Speaker 1: the in the men's.

1523
01:16:07,240 --> 01:16:09,920
Speaker 2: Room here TV twelve stuff.

1524
01:16:09,720 --> 01:16:12,760
Speaker 1: Good damn well, you should.

1525
01:16:11,920 --> 01:16:13,040
Speaker 2: You keep pliability in here.

1526
01:16:13,400 --> 01:16:16,400
Speaker 1: It's a dumb conversation though, because they needed each other,

1527
01:16:16,680 --> 01:16:19,200
Speaker 1: they had each other. There was never a moment where,

1528
01:16:19,280 --> 01:16:21,479
Speaker 1: you know, they didn't have each other in New England.

1529
01:16:22,439 --> 01:16:25,120
Speaker 1: All good things come to an end, and you can

1530
01:16:25,160 --> 01:16:27,000
Speaker 1: point fingers as to why they came to an end,

1531
01:16:27,040 --> 01:16:30,360
Speaker 1: but the bottom line is in this year when this happened,

1532
01:16:30,600 --> 01:16:33,519
Speaker 1: at some point Bledsoe got healthier and was ready to

1533
01:16:33,560 --> 01:16:35,880
Speaker 1: go back. And Bill's the one who said one hundred

1534
01:16:35,880 --> 01:16:38,519
Speaker 1: million dollar contract. Hey, Bob Kraft, I know you you're

1535
01:16:38,520 --> 01:16:41,559
Speaker 1: paying that out. This is what we're going to do.

1536
01:16:42,160 --> 01:16:45,760
Speaker 1: And to everyone's credit, Brady took advantage of that opportunity.

1537
01:16:46,160 --> 01:16:49,400
Speaker 1: And the thing that we're talking about right now about

1538
01:16:49,479 --> 01:16:52,759
Speaker 1: the chiefs and it's coming for the chiefs. It's coming

1539
01:16:52,760 --> 01:16:56,080
Speaker 1: for the chiefs. Where my homes are going to be

1540
01:16:56,160 --> 01:16:58,439
Speaker 1: there and who else is who's going to be last

1541
01:16:58,520 --> 01:16:58,880
Speaker 1: with them? You know?

1542
01:16:59,280 --> 01:16:59,760
Speaker 2: Can you do it?

1543
01:17:01,000 --> 01:17:03,200
Speaker 1: Correct, and you were part of the next.

1544
01:17:03,000 --> 01:17:05,639
Speaker 2: Generation, right, which is harder to do with the next

1545
01:17:05,640 --> 01:17:07,679
Speaker 2: generation because you're already the target.

1546
01:17:08,160 --> 01:17:11,320
Speaker 1: And by the way, it's tough to explain to people

1547
01:17:11,320 --> 01:17:13,640
Speaker 1: of a certain younger age that Gronk was part of

1548
01:17:13,680 --> 01:17:17,040
Speaker 1: the second generation as well, you know, And so the

1549
01:17:17,080 --> 01:17:21,320
Speaker 1: first generation three out of four. The fact that three

1550
01:17:21,360 --> 01:17:24,960
Speaker 1: out of five happened when Brady was as advancing in

1551
01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:30,000
Speaker 1: his age as he was, is, you know, arguably is

1552
01:17:30,080 --> 01:17:34,680
Speaker 1: big an achievement and a miracle and opportunity knocking and

1553
01:17:34,680 --> 01:17:38,160
Speaker 1: taking advantage of than the first dynasty when he was

1554
01:17:38,520 --> 01:17:42,719
Speaker 1: this young and went on this run to a Super

1555
01:17:42,760 --> 01:17:47,120
Speaker 1: Bowl and then backed it up, you know, three and

1556
01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:50,520
Speaker 1: four years later with the first back to back championships

1557
01:17:50,520 --> 01:17:52,840
Speaker 1: that we had seen since the Broncos then and the

1558
01:17:52,840 --> 01:17:55,240
Speaker 1: only one we had seen since until the Chiefs did

1559
01:17:55,240 --> 01:17:56,960
Speaker 1: it and the Eagles could do it again this year.

1560
01:17:57,000 --> 01:17:58,280
Speaker 2: Who knows, But.

1561
01:17:58,960 --> 01:18:01,439
Speaker 1: When you put it all together, wondering right now, Mahomes

1562
01:18:01,520 --> 01:18:05,840
Speaker 1: is not gonna have Kelsey forever, and you know, Andy

1563
01:18:05,920 --> 01:18:08,439
Speaker 1: Reid at some point is gonna move on. I don't know,

1564
01:18:08,479 --> 01:18:11,479
Speaker 1: because Brady and Belichick were the constant, and then the

1565
01:18:11,520 --> 01:18:14,680
Speaker 1: rest of the roster changed. I don't know what the

1566
01:18:14,760 --> 01:18:17,840
Speaker 1: Chiefs two point zero is going to be because right

1567
01:18:17,880 --> 01:18:20,600
Speaker 1: now Mahomes has had a better career remarkably so. And

1568
01:18:20,640 --> 01:18:22,719
Speaker 1: you could say this prior to the age of thirty

1569
01:18:22,720 --> 01:18:25,400
Speaker 1: than Brady did in terms of rings, and in terms

1570
01:18:25,400 --> 01:18:28,200
Speaker 1: of stats and in terms of everything else. The question

1571
01:18:28,360 --> 01:18:33,240
Speaker 1: is is to catch Brady to be Brady, to be competitive?

1572
01:18:33,280 --> 01:18:34,360
Speaker 2: Stamina?

1573
01:18:34,800 --> 01:18:37,719
Speaker 1: What's he gonna do when he's thirty five? What's gonna

1574
01:18:37,720 --> 01:18:40,280
Speaker 1: happen when you're thirty four to Will he have a drought?

1575
01:18:40,360 --> 01:18:42,679
Speaker 1: Are we about to witness that drought that Tom went

1576
01:18:42,720 --> 01:18:45,040
Speaker 1: through despite making it to the Super Bowl two years

1577
01:18:45,040 --> 01:18:49,120
Speaker 1: in that drought, or are we going to.

1578
01:18:49,160 --> 01:18:51,800
Speaker 2: See and winning the division through that drought right throughout

1579
01:18:51,840 --> 01:18:52,320
Speaker 2: that drought?

1580
01:18:52,520 --> 01:18:54,160
Speaker 1: Or are we going to see a drought? And if not,

1581
01:18:55,120 --> 01:18:56,680
Speaker 1: you know where does that place him in terms of

1582
01:18:56,680 --> 01:18:59,880
Speaker 1: being able to position himself for that thirty five to

1583
01:19:00,080 --> 01:19:03,880
Speaker 1: forty year old Mahomes to be that good? And then

1584
01:19:03,880 --> 01:19:07,280
Speaker 1: of course comes the post forty year old if that

1585
01:19:07,320 --> 01:19:08,760
Speaker 1: wants to If he wants to do that or.

1586
01:19:08,760 --> 01:19:09,679
Speaker 2: Not, it's possible.

1587
01:19:09,960 --> 01:19:12,799
Speaker 1: People just think I got a post forty year old Brady.

1588
01:19:13,040 --> 01:19:15,439
Speaker 1: It's happened as good of a career as any other

1589
01:19:15,520 --> 01:19:20,040
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer in their thirties. Honestly, that's what Tom

1590
01:19:20,200 --> 01:19:22,759
Speaker 1: is the goat period, end of story.

1591
01:19:22,840 --> 01:19:25,439
Speaker 2: But that's why a lot of these guys are getting paid. True,

1592
01:19:25,479 --> 01:19:27,880
Speaker 2: there's only one Tom Brady. You can't be tearing an

1593
01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:31,160
Speaker 2: achilles at thirty eight and getting two hundred million dollars.

1594
01:19:31,320 --> 01:19:34,240
Speaker 2: And I'm not gonna say there's only one of those guys.

1595
01:19:35,320 --> 01:19:39,040
Speaker 2: Like before Tom Brady, it was when you were thirty seven,

1596
01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:43,160
Speaker 2: thirty eight, you're done. Yeah, And it's still pretty much

1597
01:19:43,400 --> 01:19:43,680
Speaker 2: like that.

1598
01:19:44,080 --> 01:19:45,880
Speaker 1: Look at Breeze, look at Big Ben when they were

1599
01:19:46,040 --> 01:19:49,160
Speaker 1: approaching that time, and they weren't. They weren't. They weren't

1600
01:19:49,160 --> 01:19:54,000
Speaker 1: as you know, as lasting as obviously Tom. I know

1601
01:19:54,200 --> 01:19:56,839
Speaker 1: Rogers is attempting it right now. We'll see what happens

1602
01:19:56,880 --> 01:19:59,920
Speaker 1: this year. But he's what forty this year, he's forty one.

1603
01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:03,280
Speaker 1: We're talking forty five, man, And it was all born

1604
01:20:03,320 --> 01:20:04,040
Speaker 1: on this day.

1605
01:20:04,000 --> 01:20:05,680
Speaker 2: We won a Super Bowl when he was I mean,

1606
01:20:05,720 --> 01:20:08,320
Speaker 2: Tom was like in the MVP talks until he was

1607
01:20:08,400 --> 01:20:13,000
Speaker 2: forty five for good reason. Holy real deal stuff. Yes,

1608
01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:15,120
Speaker 2: we need to get that perception out of our head

1609
01:20:15,200 --> 01:20:17,719
Speaker 2: or that whatever we think that you know, older guys

1610
01:20:17,720 --> 01:20:20,120
Speaker 2: are there because one guy did it. Was this the

1611
01:20:20,120 --> 01:20:22,479
Speaker 2: most impactful play in the history of the national How

1612
01:20:22,560 --> 01:20:24,200
Speaker 2: is it not? Mo Lewis hit?

1613
01:20:24,320 --> 01:20:26,080
Speaker 1: How is it not? And we've tried to have mo

1614
01:20:26,240 --> 01:20:28,479
Speaker 1: Lewis call into our show, zoom into our show. He

1615
01:20:28,520 --> 01:20:31,599
Speaker 1: has zero interest in discussing it. I heard that recently

1616
01:20:31,720 --> 01:20:35,000
Speaker 1: came out interesting in talking about it, had a great career.

1617
01:20:35,160 --> 01:20:37,040
Speaker 1: Was not because I just don't know if he wants

1618
01:20:37,040 --> 01:20:39,040
Speaker 1: to be known for a hit or I don't.

1619
01:20:39,040 --> 01:20:39,800
Speaker 2: I don't know what it is.

1620
01:20:40,400 --> 01:20:42,160
Speaker 1: I won't talk about I think it's just interested in

1621
01:20:42,240 --> 01:20:42,960
Speaker 1: having a conversation.

1622
01:20:43,200 --> 01:20:46,680
Speaker 5: No, he made some quotes for a recent or an

1623
01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:50,400
Speaker 5: upcoming Belichick Brady book that came out that we're pretty

1624
01:20:50,640 --> 01:20:51,600
Speaker 5: pretty much back that up.

1625
01:20:51,680 --> 01:20:53,840
Speaker 2: And I don't blame him. I don't get it. I mean,

1626
01:20:54,200 --> 01:20:54,559
Speaker 2: I'm not.

1627
01:20:54,479 --> 01:20:58,080
Speaker 1: Mad, Adam. I mean, what's what what's the answer?

1628
01:20:58,360 --> 01:20:58,519
Speaker 5: Oh?

1629
01:20:58,560 --> 01:20:58,760
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1630
01:20:58,760 --> 01:21:01,200
Speaker 1: I hit him like you know, see quarterback hit quarterback.

1631
01:21:01,240 --> 01:21:03,759
Speaker 1: If he's going to be this big, bled so this big,

1632
01:21:04,360 --> 01:21:05,920
Speaker 1: you know what is he six or five? I mean,

1633
01:21:06,080 --> 01:21:08,519
Speaker 1: this dude's not slide and he's gonna he's gonna run

1634
01:21:08,520 --> 01:21:11,439
Speaker 1: the risk of me hitting him. I'm gonna unload on there.

1635
01:21:11,479 --> 01:21:13,280
Speaker 1: Doesn't want also want to know about he puts somebody

1636
01:21:13,280 --> 01:21:15,000
Speaker 1: in the hospital. I'm sure that that is not what

1637
01:21:15,080 --> 01:21:17,920
Speaker 1: he really wants to talk about. It wasn't a dirty hit. Look,

1638
01:21:17,960 --> 01:21:20,360
Speaker 1: the helmet is not connecting their shoulder to shoulder. No,

1639
01:21:20,439 --> 01:21:23,200
Speaker 1: it's clean hit. He wasn't rapping, he wasn't hitting him

1640
01:21:23,240 --> 01:21:25,559
Speaker 1: laid out of bounds. All these gud damn quarterbacks now

1641
01:21:25,600 --> 01:21:30,480
Speaker 1: got to watch his play because.

1642
01:21:30,120 --> 01:21:32,680
Speaker 2: Of this play. They get all tippy toe, you're on

1643
01:21:32,840 --> 01:21:34,680
Speaker 2: that thing, and they think they're off limits.

1644
01:21:34,479 --> 01:21:36,280
Speaker 4: The moments just in the Chargers game, just give a

1645
01:21:36,280 --> 01:21:36,880
Speaker 4: little shoulder.

1646
01:21:37,479 --> 01:21:39,920
Speaker 1: A lot of people are thinking that he's he's using

1647
01:21:40,040 --> 01:21:42,240
Speaker 1: he's using the advantage.

1648
01:21:41,760 --> 01:21:44,440
Speaker 2: Of you can't hit the quarterback and then to his advantage.

1649
01:21:45,280 --> 01:21:48,200
Speaker 1: But you know, all quarterbacks need to watch this play

1650
01:21:48,280 --> 01:21:51,200
Speaker 1: unless you're the backup once an opportunity of a lifetime.

1651
01:21:52,320 --> 01:21:54,720
Speaker 1: And again, the fact that we're making a play that

1652
01:21:54,760 --> 01:21:56,800
Speaker 1: we've we just talked about that we see all the

1653
01:21:56,840 --> 01:21:59,519
Speaker 1: time in the NFL, and quarterbacks are taught to avoid

1654
01:22:00,080 --> 01:22:03,360
Speaker 1: in the NFL. That looks just like any other. Again,

1655
01:22:03,439 --> 01:22:06,040
Speaker 1: it's not like helmet, oh that was dirty, or it

1656
01:22:06,080 --> 01:22:08,760
Speaker 1: wasn't like oh he was out of bounds or well,

1657
01:22:08,840 --> 01:22:11,520
Speaker 1: it's not like a it was like a three touchdown

1658
01:22:11,600 --> 01:22:15,080
Speaker 1: game where this was cheap because he was taking a

1659
01:22:15,080 --> 01:22:17,360
Speaker 1: shot that just like, hey man, this game's over. What

1660
01:22:17,400 --> 01:22:20,880
Speaker 1: are you doing? No like that. This was just a

1661
01:22:21,000 --> 01:22:23,479
Speaker 1: run of the mill moment. The fact that we're sitting

1662
01:22:23,560 --> 01:22:25,760
Speaker 1: and you're asking me that question, is this the most

1663
01:22:25,800 --> 01:22:29,320
Speaker 1: important play in the NFL's history, And I'm saying, with

1664
01:22:29,680 --> 01:22:32,280
Speaker 1: everything in the history of the NFL I did not start.

1665
01:22:32,400 --> 01:22:36,439
Speaker 1: I've said yes, because your question about is Brady inevitable

1666
01:22:36,479 --> 01:22:38,800
Speaker 1: or not? Obviously we'll never have the answer to that question,

1667
01:22:38,880 --> 01:22:41,479
Speaker 1: but you have to assume not a definitely not an

1668
01:22:41,520 --> 01:22:44,200
Speaker 1: enveloue in New England. Like if Brady just kept going

1669
01:22:44,240 --> 01:22:45,880
Speaker 1: on his merried way, I don't think there would have

1670
01:22:45,880 --> 01:22:48,360
Speaker 1: been a moment where it's just like we're gonna bench

1671
01:22:48,400 --> 01:22:51,000
Speaker 1: the one hundred million dollar quarter back him.

1672
01:22:51,080 --> 01:22:52,320
Speaker 2: He was a godded time.

1673
01:22:52,400 --> 01:22:54,120
Speaker 1: Well, he took them to the Super Bowl a few

1674
01:22:54,160 --> 01:22:57,240
Speaker 1: years before, and so for me to say that is

1675
01:22:57,280 --> 01:23:01,080
Speaker 1: a testament and to again to Brady's greatness and the

1676
01:23:01,120 --> 01:23:05,080
Speaker 1: greatness of folks like yourself and Gronk and Belichick and

1677
01:23:05,160 --> 01:23:08,240
Speaker 1: everybody else from Bruski to you know everyone else that

1678
01:23:08,240 --> 01:23:13,120
Speaker 1: we mentioned here, you know, Seymour, Willie McGinnis, all vable

1679
01:23:13,280 --> 01:23:17,080
Speaker 1: everyone else as a collective and as individuals to take

1680
01:23:17,120 --> 01:23:19,840
Speaker 1: this moment and build on it. From the Craft family

1681
01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:22,479
Speaker 1: as well, Belichick, name them all, Peoli, anybody who was

1682
01:23:22,479 --> 01:23:26,799
Speaker 1: in that front office that everybody with this moment built

1683
01:23:26,880 --> 01:23:31,640
Speaker 1: off of it, built their careers, jackets, rings, busts, you know,

1684
01:23:32,200 --> 01:23:37,479
Speaker 1: is makes it makes it a sliding door butterfly effect moment.

1685
01:23:38,320 --> 01:23:40,519
Speaker 1: That Yeah, man, I had no idea. Again, I did

1686
01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:42,320
Speaker 1: the highlight until I redid Sports Center.

1687
01:23:42,400 --> 01:23:45,000
Speaker 2: You know, you know what I just thought of when

1688
01:23:45,040 --> 01:23:48,800
Speaker 2: you were saying that, Yeah, I basically had like you

1689
01:23:49,000 --> 01:23:55,439
Speaker 2: narrating little Simba, yeah coming over. Yeah, sure, I think

1690
01:23:55,520 --> 01:23:57,280
Speaker 2: that's what this play was.

1691
01:23:57,640 --> 01:23:59,760
Speaker 1: Could be that the lion king there is look at

1692
01:23:59,760 --> 01:24:02,120
Speaker 1: that guy with all those rings, man, right, let me

1693
01:24:02,560 --> 01:24:05,320
Speaker 1: go and there's no argument. There's no argument. And I

1694
01:24:05,400 --> 01:24:08,120
Speaker 1: know Mahomes might make one later in the day, and

1695
01:24:08,160 --> 01:24:10,280
Speaker 1: that would you know, if that happens, that would turn

1696
01:24:10,280 --> 01:24:12,479
Speaker 1: into the Lebron Jordan argument that they hear about in

1697
01:24:12,520 --> 01:24:15,599
Speaker 1: the NBA all the time. But I mean, but let's

1698
01:24:15,600 --> 01:24:19,200
Speaker 1: not forget man again. Tommy went ten years without even

1699
01:24:19,200 --> 01:24:20,439
Speaker 1: sniffing it again. Or he went to two.

1700
01:24:21,280 --> 01:24:25,519
Speaker 2: It's hard go to a lot of soupy.

1701
01:24:25,800 --> 01:24:28,320
Speaker 1: That was what that one in Indianapolis where I was

1702
01:24:28,560 --> 01:24:30,800
Speaker 1: Eli dropped that one in Manninghan's lap by the way

1703
01:24:30,920 --> 01:24:33,320
Speaker 1: arch through one very similar to that in the Texas

1704
01:24:33,320 --> 01:24:36,320
Speaker 1: Ohio State game that I was thinking, Oh man, that

1705
01:24:36,439 --> 01:24:38,320
Speaker 1: was this is gonna be my day where Ohio State

1706
01:24:38,479 --> 01:24:41,920
Speaker 1: ate it because I root against them always significantly every

1707
01:24:41,920 --> 01:24:45,680
Speaker 1: single time. And then and of course the moment in

1708
01:24:46,080 --> 01:24:49,639
Speaker 1: Minnesota as well. But you got enough, man, we got

1709
01:24:49,680 --> 01:24:50,719
Speaker 1: a not know but it's greedy.

1710
01:24:50,760 --> 01:24:52,559
Speaker 2: You want more. That's the beauty. You want to grade

1711
01:24:52,600 --> 01:24:55,400
Speaker 2: the game, Let's get to let's grade this game on

1712
01:24:55,479 --> 01:24:55,880
Speaker 2: this real.

1713
01:24:55,840 --> 01:24:59,000
Speaker 5: Quick though the Pats would lose ten to three. People

1714
01:24:59,000 --> 01:25:01,559
Speaker 5: don't remember, at least I didn't, and I'm not ashamed

1715
01:25:01,560 --> 01:25:03,719
Speaker 5: to admit this. Drew Bletsoe came back in this game.

1716
01:25:04,240 --> 01:25:06,439
Speaker 5: He came back in this game for a couple of plays,

1717
01:25:06,600 --> 01:25:09,160
Speaker 5: another Mark Edwards fumble. But that's just a testament to

1718
01:25:09,200 --> 01:25:13,160
Speaker 5: Drew's toughness. Crazy crazy, he's bleeding inside, he's out there,

1719
01:25:13,320 --> 01:25:14,280
Speaker 5: he's trying to win this thing.

1720
01:25:14,760 --> 01:25:16,439
Speaker 2: Crazy and to put a bow on it.

1721
01:25:16,439 --> 01:25:19,439
Speaker 5: Mo Lewis recently said, it's really irrelevant to me, just

1722
01:25:19,479 --> 01:25:21,240
Speaker 5: another play to me, to you all, it's a big

1723
01:25:21,280 --> 01:25:24,000
Speaker 5: game changing, history changing play. I never go back and

1724
01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:25,800
Speaker 5: watch that play. If people want to talk about it.

1725
01:25:25,840 --> 01:25:27,759
Speaker 5: I don't hide from it. But it has no importance

1726
01:25:27,800 --> 01:25:27,960
Speaker 5: to me.

1727
01:25:28,080 --> 01:25:30,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, he won't be downloading this pod. Yeah, no, he

1728
01:25:30,479 --> 01:25:34,000
Speaker 1: will a future guest three man. He says that until

1729
01:25:34,600 --> 01:25:36,960
Speaker 1: there's a big name on games with names.

1730
01:25:38,439 --> 01:25:41,479
Speaker 2: Let's grade this game. The name of this game, it's

1731
01:25:41,479 --> 01:25:44,200
Speaker 2: obviously the mo Lewis game, right or is there something else?

1732
01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:46,679
Speaker 2: I don't know. That's it the mo Lewis game. Score

1733
01:25:46,760 --> 01:25:49,439
Speaker 2: the game? Is this the greatest game? Let's score it?

1734
01:25:49,680 --> 01:25:52,760
Speaker 2: Decimals encouraged stakes. See.

1735
01:25:52,800 --> 01:25:54,720
Speaker 1: The problem is is that that I don't know how

1736
01:25:54,760 --> 01:25:55,759
Speaker 1: many stakes.

1737
01:25:56,160 --> 01:25:56,559
Speaker 2: I don't know.

1738
01:25:56,600 --> 01:25:59,880
Speaker 1: Again, it's like two, it's a week two games.

1739
01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:00,400
Speaker 2: That's true.

1740
01:26:00,960 --> 01:26:04,360
Speaker 1: That's that's the problem. I think your rating system is

1741
01:26:04,400 --> 01:26:10,240
Speaker 1: going to be it's gonna really be indicative of the significance. No,

1742
01:26:10,520 --> 01:26:11,840
Speaker 1: but I mean, this is your show.

1743
01:26:11,920 --> 01:26:14,240
Speaker 2: So I'm going to go with a three point eight

1744
01:26:14,600 --> 01:26:16,120
Speaker 2: because I mean it's a division game.

1745
01:26:16,320 --> 01:26:18,760
Speaker 1: Okay, that's integrity, So weird number you want to round

1746
01:26:18,840 --> 01:26:24,639
Speaker 1: up or encourage four point no idea, okay, decimals encourage,

1747
01:26:25,800 --> 01:26:30,160
Speaker 1: set it in the titles, encouraged, star power zero to

1748
01:26:30,200 --> 01:26:34,120
Speaker 1: ten decimals encouraged. I'll go five nine four because that's

1749
01:26:34,120 --> 01:26:37,000
Speaker 1: my fastest forty. Time for Saint Jude. I like him,

1750
01:26:37,360 --> 01:26:40,240
Speaker 1: I like my dad wants to donate to say Jude.

1751
01:26:40,240 --> 01:26:42,040
Speaker 1: Anytime we have you, please do that. And any time

1752
01:26:42,040 --> 01:26:44,760
Speaker 1: we curse on the show. Frank also wants us we

1753
01:26:44,800 --> 01:26:47,000
Speaker 1: send the Saint Jude. And that should be a multiplier

1754
01:26:47,000 --> 01:26:48,200
Speaker 1: because I cursed on this show.

1755
01:26:48,280 --> 01:26:51,840
Speaker 3: Oh okay, we asked our discord channel for a question

1756
01:26:51,880 --> 01:26:54,120
Speaker 3: and actually bring it back around. How fast do you

1757
01:26:54,160 --> 01:26:55,800
Speaker 3: think you could run a forty if you trained for

1758
01:26:55,840 --> 01:26:56,439
Speaker 3: it full time?

1759
01:26:56,560 --> 01:26:56,760
Speaker 2: Oh?

1760
01:26:56,800 --> 01:26:59,680
Speaker 1: My wife wonders that all the time. I don't know.

1761
01:27:00,040 --> 01:27:02,840
Speaker 1: I think he actually offered me this his staff to

1762
01:27:02,880 --> 01:27:04,160
Speaker 1: train for this next forty.

1763
01:27:04,520 --> 01:27:06,479
Speaker 2: I'd be silly not to do it. Michigan man looking

1764
01:27:06,479 --> 01:27:07,240
Speaker 2: out for a Michigan man.

1765
01:27:07,360 --> 01:27:10,360
Speaker 1: We do, so maybe I'll try. We'll find out my

1766
01:27:10,400 --> 01:27:12,360
Speaker 1: star power. There's a lot of stars on this team.

1767
01:27:12,600 --> 01:27:14,880
Speaker 1: There's there's a few Hall of famers. Yeah, but Brady

1768
01:27:15,000 --> 01:27:18,880
Speaker 1: was relatively unknown, and so is Seymour. This is game

1769
01:27:18,920 --> 01:27:20,400
Speaker 1: two of his career, I know.

1770
01:27:22,080 --> 01:27:25,400
Speaker 2: Is Shoes of the Moment five point six. Okay, Rich,

1771
01:27:25,400 --> 01:27:27,800
Speaker 2: I didn't even get my score out. Okay, sorry, all right,

1772
01:27:28,840 --> 01:27:32,240
Speaker 2: my score for that's my bad. Seven point two. So

1773
01:27:32,360 --> 01:27:33,960
Speaker 2: you guys have already rated it, and this is the

1774
01:27:33,960 --> 01:27:34,559
Speaker 2: big reveal.

1775
01:27:34,640 --> 01:27:36,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, it saves time, save some time.

1776
01:27:36,479 --> 01:27:40,120
Speaker 2: Excellent drama, the way to build it up. The gameplay

1777
01:27:40,120 --> 01:27:42,439
Speaker 2: of this game, which was very slop terrible. It's like

1778
01:27:42,520 --> 01:27:46,360
Speaker 2: put it three, put it in three three. I'm gonna

1779
01:27:46,360 --> 01:27:50,320
Speaker 2: go with two point three. Okay, four point one, part

1780
01:27:50,360 --> 01:27:52,160
Speaker 2: three point one. The name of the game, though we

1781
01:27:52,240 --> 01:27:54,240
Speaker 2: all know that this is where you can go.

1782
01:27:55,880 --> 01:27:59,040
Speaker 1: This is this is like you should put in significance,

1783
01:27:59,160 --> 01:28:02,759
Speaker 1: like significant if you have a category of significance instead

1784
01:28:02,760 --> 01:28:05,840
Speaker 1: of steaks, you know, like if you remove steaks and

1785
01:28:05,880 --> 01:28:06,840
Speaker 1: put in significance.

1786
01:28:06,920 --> 01:28:09,480
Speaker 2: The name of the game is kind of But that's

1787
01:28:10,240 --> 01:28:10,960
Speaker 2: when I leave here.

1788
01:28:11,120 --> 01:28:12,800
Speaker 1: It's your show, you know what I mean? Like, so

1789
01:28:12,840 --> 01:28:14,519
Speaker 1: I don't want to, I don't. I do like to

1790
01:28:14,520 --> 01:28:17,160
Speaker 1: be a factor and leave an imprint, but yeah, I

1791
01:28:17,160 --> 01:28:18,360
Speaker 1: mean espnists.

1792

01:28:23,640 --> 01:28:25,439
Speaker 2: to do it. I have no contractual going a ten

1795
01:28:25,520 --> 01:28:28,559

1796
01:28:28,560 --> 01:28:29,559
Speaker 2: to eleven. It's your number.

1797
01:28:29,600 --> 01:28:31,160
Speaker 1: It's like a spinal tap, or you could have went

1798
01:28:31,800 --> 01:28:33,519
Speaker 1: it's seven to five. What's your problem?

1799
01:28:34,160 --> 01:28:34,679

Speaker 1: That's probably not high up at all? But okay, oh

1804
01:28:46,760 --> 01:28:49,600
Speaker 1: this could be five. Yeah, I'm sure it's not.

1805
01:28:50,479 --> 01:28:52,439
Speaker 2: Gameplay and stakes kind of Is this the lowest game

1806
01:28:52,479 --> 01:28:58,920
Speaker 2: of all? No, it is going to be new Okay, okay.

1809
01:29:06,080 --> 01:29:08,479
Speaker 1: Oh god, what was the biggest watershed moment in the

1810
01:29:08,520 --> 01:29:09,000
Speaker 1: history of that?

1811
01:29:09,200 --> 01:29:12,320
Speaker 2: What was that? Seriously? That was a dinosaur barbecue game? Yeah,

1812
01:29:13,160 --> 01:29:13,800
Speaker 2: forget that.

1813

Speaker 2: All right, well, maybe lost the game.

1816
01:29:22,400 --> 01:29:24,200
Speaker 4: Oh it should have been a more interesting game.

1817
01:29:24,280 --> 01:29:25,960
Speaker 2: Ten three that leaves the mark.

1818
01:29:26,520 --> 01:29:29,679

Speaker 4: Was chuck nblock? The second baseman, Martina Martinez.

Speaker 2: Seems like a chuck no block?

1908
01:33:24,240 --> 01:33:25,600
Speaker 5: But see if it had been blocked, he wouldn't have

1909
01:33:25,640 --> 01:33:26,840
Speaker 5: been able to make the handoff to her.

1910
01:33:27,760 --> 01:33:28,519
Speaker 4: He would have sailed it.

Speaker 2: Put it up in the tenth row. You guy had

1912

1934
01:34:34,840 --> 01:34:37,960
Speaker 2: advice advice advice.

1935
01:34:38,280 --> 01:34:40,360
Speaker 5: As an elder statesman of the game who has seen

1936
01:34:40,400 --> 01:34:43,720
Speaker 5: it all. The season is kicking off, a lot of

1937
01:34:43,800 --> 01:34:47,080
Speaker 5: rookies are making impacts already. Uh So we wanted to

1938
01:34:47,080 --> 01:34:50,160
Speaker 5: see Jules what you wish you knew as a rookie

1939
01:34:50,640 --> 01:34:52,120
Speaker 5: and some of the advice that you would give to

1940
01:34:52,160 --> 01:34:53,840
Speaker 5: these young bucks trying to make it in.

1941
01:34:53,840 --> 01:34:56,080
Speaker 2: The league today. How do you feel about that? Yeah,

1942
01:34:56,120 --> 01:35:02,680
Speaker 2: my advice to the young football players, young rookies that

1943
01:35:02,720 --> 01:35:05,679
Speaker 2: are in the league, that are entering there the early

1944
01:35:05,720 --> 01:35:10,160
Speaker 2: part of their season, get a body routine down immediately,

1945
01:35:10,880 --> 01:35:14,559
Speaker 2: even if your body is feeling good, get your body

1946
01:35:14,600 --> 01:35:17,880
Speaker 2: work in because nothing is more important than the health

1947
01:35:17,920 --> 01:35:22,280
Speaker 2: of your body when you're playing professional sport. Your body

1948
01:35:22,479 --> 01:35:26,320
Speaker 2: is your tool. Get massage, get the prehab stuff that

1949
01:35:26,360 --> 01:35:29,360
Speaker 2: when your body's feeling good that you're working your ankles,

1950
01:35:29,400 --> 01:35:33,519
Speaker 2: your knees. Develop a really good routine for your body.

1951
01:35:34,000 --> 01:35:36,320
Speaker 2: Don't do it when your body's hurt, because when you

1952
01:35:36,360 --> 01:35:38,680
Speaker 2: get hurt, when you've been doing it. If you do

1953
01:35:38,760 --> 01:35:41,920
Speaker 2: the stuff before you get hurt, you get back quicker.

1954
01:35:42,640 --> 01:35:46,680
Speaker 2: You know. So fall in love. I was blessed to

1955
01:35:46,800 --> 01:35:49,519
Speaker 2: be drafted into the Patriots around a guy that was

1956
01:35:49,880 --> 01:35:52,960
Speaker 2: super into his health, and that's Tom Brady. I mean,

1957
01:35:52,960 --> 01:35:55,120
Speaker 2: there's a guy rubbing his arm every two seconds. He

1958
01:35:55,200 --> 01:35:59,280
Speaker 2: was eating freaking nothing but like kale and stuff, and

1959
01:35:59,560 --> 01:36:03,519
Speaker 2: everything was to make him perform the best. His body

1960
01:36:03,560 --> 01:36:08,240
Speaker 2: performed the best on Sunday, So get that body routine going,

1961
01:36:08,680 --> 01:36:12,800
Speaker 2: and also know it's a long season, whether good or bad.

1962
01:36:12,840 --> 01:36:18,160
Speaker 2: When you're a young football player, you gotta scrap, scrap

1963
01:36:18,200 --> 01:36:22,280
Speaker 2: what you just did in week one and worry about

1964
01:36:22,320 --> 01:36:25,920
Speaker 2: week two or week three, worry about week four. You

1965
01:36:26,000 --> 01:36:28,559
Speaker 2: have to remember the bad stuff and the good stuff

1966
01:36:28,880 --> 01:36:31,920
Speaker 2: to help you get better for that week. But whatever

1967
01:36:31,960 --> 01:36:36,120
Speaker 2: you did in that past week means absolutely nothing. You know,

1968
01:36:36,240 --> 01:36:39,479
Speaker 2: week one is crazy. The early part of the season

1969
01:36:39,560 --> 01:36:42,479
Speaker 2: is crazy. There's a lot of unpredictability, there's a lot

1970
01:36:42,520 --> 01:36:45,680
Speaker 2: of new wrinkles. You still don't know what your team is.

1971
01:36:45,760 --> 01:36:48,040
Speaker 2: You still don't know what the strengths of your team is.

1972
01:36:48,200 --> 01:36:51,160
Speaker 2: You don't know what the weaknesses are. It's a long,

1973
01:36:51,360 --> 01:36:54,920
Speaker 2: long season, specially as a rookie who's only played in

1974
01:36:55,040 --> 01:36:59,759
Speaker 2: potentially fourteen games if you went to the playoff or fifteen.

1975
01:37:00,479 --> 01:37:02,719
Speaker 2: That's only you know, you have like four more weeks

1976
01:37:02,760 --> 01:37:05,120
Speaker 2: in the regular season the NFL, and if you're on

1977
01:37:05,160 --> 01:37:08,760
Speaker 2: a playoff team, those weeks even get more ramped when

1978
01:37:08,800 --> 01:37:11,599
Speaker 2: you go to the playoffs. So it's a long season.

1979
01:37:13,000 --> 01:37:15,920
Speaker 2: Know your body, get your body right, always have your

1980
01:37:15,960 --> 01:37:20,280
Speaker 2: body work, and always get the massage, the prehab, the

1981
01:37:20,479 --> 01:37:24,760
Speaker 2: pt whatever it is even when your body's feeling good, Like,

1982
01:37:24,880 --> 01:37:28,080
Speaker 2: always work those things and know that it's a long season,

1983
01:37:28,080 --> 01:37:30,719
Speaker 2: because it does. There is such thing as that rookie

1984
01:37:30,720 --> 01:37:32,000
Speaker 2: wall or that you hit, you know.

1985
01:37:32,640 --> 01:37:34,040
Speaker 1: I mean, if you keep up, you don't have to

1986
01:37:34,080 --> 01:37:36,040
Speaker 1: catch up body wise, If you keep up, you don't

1987
01:37:36,080 --> 01:37:36,719
Speaker 1: have to ketchup.

1988
01:37:36,840 --> 01:37:38,160
Speaker 2: Hey man, that sounds good, done it.

1989
01:37:38,240 --> 01:37:41,880
Speaker 5: Let's start, uh, I will say, I think we already

1990
01:37:41,960 --> 01:37:43,080
Speaker 5: kind of touched on it here a little bit. But

1991
01:37:43,160 --> 01:37:47,240
Speaker 5: like speaking personally Jewels and just generally with guys you've

1992
01:37:47,240 --> 01:37:50,000
Speaker 5: seen coming go in the league, what's the biggest adjustment

1993
01:37:50,040 --> 01:37:51,080
Speaker 5: for a rookie in the NFL.

1994
01:37:51,520 --> 01:37:56,320
Speaker 2: I think the biggest adjustment is you're not the buck. Yeah,

1995
01:37:56,360 --> 01:37:59,120
Speaker 2: you know, you've been the best football player on the

1996
01:37:59,160 --> 01:38:04,000
Speaker 2: field that you've been on your whole life, every level.

1997
01:38:04,439 --> 01:38:07,280
Speaker 2: You were always the guy. Once you get up there,

1998
01:38:07,600 --> 01:38:11,519
Speaker 2: you look around. You see Randy Moss, you see Tom Brady,

1999
01:38:11,800 --> 01:38:15,519
Speaker 2: you see well Will Fork, you see Teddy Bruski, Like

2000
01:38:15,640 --> 01:38:19,559
Speaker 2: you're seeing guys that you're watching in high school, junior college,

2001
01:38:20,240 --> 01:38:23,679
Speaker 2: junior high winning super bowls, playing at the highest level,

2002
01:38:23,800 --> 01:38:29,439
Speaker 2: the highest the best games like you got. You gotta

2003
01:38:29,560 --> 01:38:32,920
Speaker 2: understand that you're not the buck. Oh, I feel that

2004
01:38:33,200 --> 01:38:36,599
Speaker 2: now you can be a buck. But but like everyone

2005
01:38:37,040 --> 01:38:41,759
Speaker 2: is the best. So that's when the little things matter.

2006
01:38:42,360 --> 01:38:45,839
Speaker 2: When you're a rookie, not making the same mistake twice.

2007
01:38:45,920 --> 01:38:48,560
Speaker 2: Mistakes are gonna be made, you just can't make them twice,

2008
01:38:49,000 --> 01:38:52,639
Speaker 2: you know, learning from every rep you have, taking reps

2009
01:38:52,680 --> 01:38:55,639
Speaker 2: when you're not physically and you're taking the mental rep,

2010
01:38:55,720 --> 01:39:00,280
Speaker 2: being prepared for a situation or a package, and your

2011
01:39:00,320 --> 01:39:03,080
Speaker 2: opportunity comes, you may only get one. I was in

2012
01:39:03,080 --> 01:39:06,559
Speaker 2: a four wide package they called maybe four of those

2013
01:39:06,640 --> 01:39:10,280
Speaker 2: of practice. I knew I had to go in and

2014
01:39:10,360 --> 01:39:13,400
Speaker 2: not fuck up the personnel group, not fuck up the play,

2015
01:39:13,479 --> 01:39:16,280
Speaker 2: not fuck up the formation. Know my responsibility, and I

2016
01:39:16,360 --> 01:39:18,960
Speaker 2: knew the ball probably wasn't coming to me. But you

2017
01:39:19,080 --> 01:39:20,360
Speaker 2: had to put it on, you know what I mean,

2018
01:39:20,439 --> 01:39:22,160
Speaker 2: just to show you. You got to show them you

2019
01:39:22,200 --> 01:39:23,960
Speaker 2: know what you're doing right, because they're not going to

2020
01:39:24,000 --> 01:39:25,200
Speaker 2: put you out there if you don't.

2021
01:39:25,400 --> 01:39:25,720
Speaker 1: That's true.

2022
01:39:25,760 --> 01:39:28,680
Speaker 5: And you only get limited reps every practice, only limited reps.

2023
01:39:28,439 --> 01:39:33,280
Speaker 2: There's this isn't college where you know there's you got

2024
01:39:33,280 --> 01:39:36,080
Speaker 2: a hundred guys on the team. There's a backup long snap,

2025
01:39:36,120 --> 01:39:41,200
Speaker 2: there's fifty three dudes, that's a ten practice squad. What

2026
01:39:41,320 --> 01:39:43,240
Speaker 2: is that? Yeah?

2027
01:39:43,240 --> 01:39:45,760
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that was my second year. This leads me,

2028
01:39:46,479 --> 01:39:47,599
Speaker 1: This leads me to my next question.

2029
01:39:48,479 --> 01:39:51,080
Speaker 5: If you could rip the time machine in twenty twenty five,

2030
01:39:51,200 --> 01:39:54,000
Speaker 5: Jewels could go back and give a little advice to

2031
01:39:54,120 --> 01:39:56,760
Speaker 5: rookie second year early on Jewels, what would you.

2032
01:39:56,760 --> 01:40:03,400
Speaker 2: Say, hold out more. I like that. I like that,

2033
01:40:04,120 --> 01:40:07,120
Speaker 2: hold your ground, amen, take a couple more of those

2034
01:40:07,200 --> 01:40:10,519
Speaker 2: visits other teams. Don't let them bully you. We don' bullies.

2035
01:40:10,520 --> 01:40:12,840
Speaker 2: We want to get bullied. My advice would probably just

2036
01:40:14,280 --> 01:40:19,559
Speaker 2: enjoy it more. And you get so caught up in

2037
01:40:19,600 --> 01:40:23,280
Speaker 2: the competition, and like, I don't know if I really

2038
01:40:23,360 --> 01:40:27,479
Speaker 2: liked winning more than I hated losing. And you know,

2039
01:40:27,520 --> 01:40:33,240
Speaker 2: the preparation it took to compete, like you fall in

2040
01:40:33,280 --> 01:40:36,640
Speaker 2: love with that, and then you go and compete and

2041
01:40:37,520 --> 01:40:39,640
Speaker 2: you only do it for three hours. You prepare for

2042
01:40:39,760 --> 01:40:44,680
Speaker 2: like four days before, five days, six months before, you

2043
01:40:44,760 --> 01:40:47,800
Speaker 2: only get three hours of it, and then you got

2044
01:40:47,800 --> 01:40:49,559
Speaker 2: to go do it again, so you have such a

2045
01:40:49,600 --> 01:40:52,800
Speaker 2: short mindset. At least I did, whether good or bad,

2046
01:40:53,400 --> 01:40:57,840
Speaker 2: that like I didn't really necessarily get to enjoy it.

2047
01:40:58,040 --> 01:41:00,200
Speaker 5: I feel that always got to be president in and

2048
01:41:00,400 --> 01:41:02,800
Speaker 5: I'm with you. Stuff is it's it's easy to say,

2049
01:41:02,840 --> 01:41:03,400
Speaker 5: but tough to do.

2050
01:41:03,600 --> 01:41:03,920
Speaker 2: Yeah.

2051
01:41:03,960 --> 01:41:05,920
Speaker 5: And then on the flip side of that coin, what

2052
01:41:06,040 --> 01:41:08,479
Speaker 5: is something you're so glad that you did as a

2053
01:41:08,479 --> 01:41:09,439
Speaker 5: young player in the NFL.

2054
01:41:12,120 --> 01:41:14,559
Speaker 2: I'm glad I was. I'm super glad that I was

2055
01:41:14,680 --> 01:41:19,360
Speaker 2: very routine oriented and I developed my pre practice routine,

2056
01:41:19,520 --> 01:41:24,120
Speaker 2: my my ball catching routine. I lived and died on

2057
01:41:24,200 --> 01:41:26,280
Speaker 2: the routine. And you know, I had a lot of

2058
01:41:26,280 --> 01:41:29,920
Speaker 2: great guys to learn how to do that from. I

2059
01:41:30,040 --> 01:41:33,719
Speaker 2: was naturally like that, but to see where I could

2060
01:41:34,600 --> 01:41:37,559
Speaker 2: use that routine and what routine I needed to get

2061
01:41:37,600 --> 01:41:43,200
Speaker 2: myself ready daily I had. I got to learn from

2062
01:41:43,240 --> 01:41:47,560
Speaker 2: some of the best routine type guys. Kevin Falks, Teddy Brewski's,

2063
01:41:47,720 --> 01:41:51,120
Speaker 2: Tom Brady's, Welker worked his balls off, had a routine,

2064
01:41:51,160 --> 01:41:53,760
Speaker 2: you know, Randy had his routine in the off seat,

2065
01:41:53,840 --> 01:41:55,759
Speaker 2: in the off on the off day, doing his speed

2066
01:41:55,800 --> 01:41:57,559
Speaker 2: and quickness that I would go do with them every

2067
01:41:57,560 --> 01:42:00,680
Speaker 2: once in a while. Like there was routines that I like,

2068
01:42:00,720 --> 01:42:03,559
Speaker 2: the guys that stuck around, the guys that played a

2069
01:42:03,560 --> 01:42:08,679
Speaker 2: long time, they were routine type guys. So I'm thankful

2070
01:42:08,680 --> 01:42:11,240
Speaker 2: that I had a good routine and it paid off. Baby,

2071
01:42:12,479 --> 01:42:14,639
Speaker 2: you can always do a little more. Wish I could

2072
01:42:14,680 --> 01:42:17,120
Speaker 2: always done better. Uh man, that was awesome.

2073
01:42:17,160 --> 01:42:19,760
Speaker 1: No, there's a lot of a lot of rookies out

2074
01:42:19,800 --> 01:42:21,439
Speaker 1: there that will love this, and a lot of rookies.

2075
01:42:21,479 --> 01:42:25,280
Speaker 2: Man, this is fun. The rookies and new rookies every year. Yeah,

2076
01:42:25,439 --> 01:42:27,479
Speaker 2: every year. And we're getting older. They did the same.

2077
01:42:27,800 --> 01:42:30,439
Speaker 1: I'm getting older. They keep all staying the same age

2078
01:42:30,560 --> 01:42:32,280
Speaker 1: or war all right.

2079
01:42:32,640 --> 01:42:35,240
Speaker 5: Oh man, you think stuff for being a rookie now

2080
01:42:35,520 --> 01:42:36,519
Speaker 5: or when you were a rookie.

2081
01:42:36,560 --> 01:42:39,559
Speaker 2: What You can't even call them a rookie anymore. They're

2082
01:42:39,560 --> 01:42:43,000
Speaker 2: the art word. First year players are for our ear,

2083
01:42:43,640 --> 01:42:46,439
Speaker 2: our words. And when I was a rookie, we still

2084
01:42:46,479 --> 01:42:52,240
Speaker 2: had like hazy Yeah, we still got bullied, which I loved.

2085
01:42:52,880 --> 01:42:56,200
Speaker 2: I loved being bullied. I love getting the friar tuck haircut.

2086
01:42:56,760 --> 01:43:00,360
Speaker 2: I love spending like one tenth of my signing bonus

2087
01:43:00,400 --> 01:43:06,320
Speaker 2: on a rookie dinner Morton's Capital Grille. I loved carrying dirty,

2088
01:43:06,439 --> 01:43:13,240
Speaker 2: sweaty men's helmets and pads and cleats off the field multiples, man,

2089
01:43:13,439 --> 01:43:16,360
Speaker 2: I love them going to have to get the food
