Speaker 2: may have as a child, maybe rooting on the Chicago Bears,

24
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 2: and what it was like to see Bears in that

25
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 2: Super Bowl end zone, when you saw forty nine Ers,

26
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 2: you saw Dolphins, you saw Redskins back in the day, man,

27
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, it's your team. Like it's like,

28
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 2: that's like, oh my goodness, it's a feeling Lions.

29
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh never.

30
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 3: Mind, alright, wait a minute, yeah, sorry about that.

31
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,319
Speaker 2: Just think about that. I mean, Mark, you know what

32
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,039
Speaker 2: I'm talking about. Your shot south side until you die.

33
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 2: Let me see that Bears end zone super Bowl twenty

34
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 2: What my goodness.

35
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 4: It's the best thing. That's a great memory of the

36
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 4: whole Super Bowl thing. Because when they won fifty one

37
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 4: to ten, I jumped up. I grabbed my dad and

38
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 4: said we what yeah, we we're talking about end zones.

39
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 4: I don't care about that.

40
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 3: Six to ten, Mark, come on, man, fifty five to

41
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 3: ten was the Niners over the Broncos's gonna can get around.

42
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 1: The scores go up over time.

43
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 5: It would have been if Walter Payton would have gotten

44
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 5: the ball.

45
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 2: Super Bowl one, the Packers beat the Chiefs ninety eight

46
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 2: seventy four. Yeah, so it just the sports keep growing

47
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 2: up over time. According to Mark Ramsey.

48
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm with you though, man. And here's the thing

49
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 5: with the Oregon jerseys.

50
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 3: Like I get that they can do it, it doesn't

51
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 3: mean it's a good idea, you know what I mean. Like,

52
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 3: like there's probably a lot of like you know, hard

53
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 3: rock singers out there that could probably do gospel. Probably

54
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 3: not a good idea, you know what I mean. Like

55
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 3: you should probably just like steer clear of that. There's

56
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 3: a lot of people who think they can act, and

57
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 3: then you see him act, you go, don't quit your

58
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 3: day job, Oregon. Just because you can come up with

59
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 3: all these different combinations doesn't mean they're all good ideas.

60
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 3: I like the uh that duck logo, just the duck,

61
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:00,959
Speaker 3: the old like the old school duck.

62
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 1: And I'll like handkerchief.

63
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, like I like that.

64
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:09,959
Speaker 3: And I like the simple green and yellow vintage look

65
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 3: almost like the Oakland A's kind of looks like a.

66
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,799
Speaker 5: Box of mic and ikes. Like I'm a big fan

67
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 5: of that.

68
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 3: All the other like gray and black and all the

69
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 3: other combinations they come out with.

70
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 1: Not a fan.

71
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 2: I know you can't see it if you're driving in

72
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,640
Speaker 2: your car. Listening to us, but Dan Lannings on ESPN

73
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 2: throwing footballs through that Oregon endzone and it just pops.

74
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 2: It just works, and you're gonna have a kickoff today.

75
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 2: That's noon Eastern time in Miami, but it's gonna be

77
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 2: just it's such a good look. And it's like, it's

78
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 2: like the person that can I don't know, maybe the

79
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 2: way I can't wear fitted baseball caps anymore, it's probably

80
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 2: because I'm old, but.

81
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 1: Also just like way too high.

82
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 2: I have to bend the I'm still with the with

83
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 2: the dad hat, and it's like the person that can

84
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 2: wear the high hat, like, wear it. It looks great.

85
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 2: You don't need to do all these other things that

86
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 2: I feel like. Oregon makes green and yellow look good,

87
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 2: so why not wear it on.

88
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:06,839
Speaker 1: This New Year's Day.

89
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 5: It is nice to see the game day crew at

90
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 5: the Rose Bowl right now.

91
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 3: And you know, for those that are that are wondering

92
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,119
Speaker 3: what's going on at the Rose Bowl, Oh no, think

93
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:18,280
Speaker 3: just a torrential downpour, that's all. So Kirk curb Street

94
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 3: went blue towel to cover his head and now he's

95
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 3: got a hat on.

96
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 5: So whatever, whatever.

97
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 3: They thought was a good idea for the stage and

98
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 3: the setup as they preview the Rose Bull, which comes

99
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 3: up at four Eastern time, not a great idea whatsoever.

100
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 2: His dog's in a raft at the third time. Yeah,

101
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 2: that's a lot. It was just dogs hanging out.

103
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 3: a tough one, man. I'm sure al Michaels was thrilled

104
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,279
Speaker 3: to find out that he's going to be sharing a

105
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 3: booth with Kirk Curve Street and his dog. And you know,

106
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,159
Speaker 3: and al Michaels likes to eat steak at halftime, so

107
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 3: you know that he's malnourished because he's got to eat

108
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 3: half of it to that dog.

109
00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:04,320

Speaker 3: coach Cortes Hankton is expected to become the new wide

159
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 3: receivers coach at Ohio.

160
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 5: State, a right four year old.

161
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 3: Had previously coach receivers at Georgia and Vandy.

162
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 5: So there you go, Dan Well, Ryan Hartline.

163
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 2: Who well, how about Chris tweeting in we all hate

164
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 2: Ohio State because of their fan base, the most obnoxious

165
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 2: cry baby fan base. Immediately after the loss, throwing up

166
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 2: videos complaining about the reps when they literally got there,

167
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 2: banded to them all night.

168
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 3: I mean, by the way, my Twitter account is the

169
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 3: Jonas Knocks, So for anybody.

170
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 1: I've seen that, I've seen that.

171
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm just saying, you know, the Ohio State I can't.

172
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 3: I can't criticize because I have you know, I didn't

173
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 3: have a whole lot of options when I created mind,

174
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 3: so yeah, yeah, but people were thrilled, they were happy.

175
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 3: Miami's America's team.

176
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: All of it.

177
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 2: Well, he capitalized THEE so that like he purposely you

178
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,240
Speaker 2: did that, and it is true. It isn't so much.

179
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 2: I don't think people hate Julian saying. I don't think

180
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 2: that's the case. I don't know how you could dislike Jeremiah.

181
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: I don't think.

182
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 2: I don't know how you could dislike Jeremiah Smith because

183
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 2: he's so freaking good. It is everything that comes with it,

184
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 2: and that happens a lot in college sports. But last night,

185
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,439
Speaker 2: as we said, I for some reason, the U was

186
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 2: America's team when they beat Ohio State. But it also

187
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 2: formed these different conversations of the college football Playoff because

188
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 2: now something you put it out earlier is the quarterfinals,

189
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 2: teams are zero to five when they've had the buye.

190
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 2: I think last night was more of a coincidence last year.

191
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 2: I thought it was more about the matchups. But if

192
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,559
Speaker 2: it happens to I don't think it's either of them.

193
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 2: Like so if Ole Miss wins, if Oregon wins, if

194
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 2: Alabama wins, if those three things happen, I don't think

195
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 2: that that's just then a coincidence because those teams specific

196
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 2: in the Old Miss situation, I think Indiana's better than Alabama.

197
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,560
Speaker 2: Wouldn't be surprised if Alabama won, But to have all

198
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 2: of this happen in the eight games, then there would

199
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 2: be something. And then now as a format, as a committee,

200
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 2: you really have to look at expanding the field so

201
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:38,680
Speaker 2: you don't have buys because or changing the schedule because

202
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 2: they don't seem to be beneficial to the teams that

203
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 2: are supposed to be getting an advantage.

204
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think Dan Lanning made the point last

205
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 3: week where he said, look, I think Texas Tech should

206
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 3: be at home. Like if you expand the playoffs, you know,

207
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 3: if you're gonna give the bye week, if you're gonna

208
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 3: give a team a bye week, give them a real advantage.

209
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 3: Let him play at home, you know, much like we

210
00:09:57,960 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 3: got to see the first run. Is one of the

211
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 3: things I do love about the college football Playoff because

212
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 3: you know, when we were doing shows together years ago,

213
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 3: I was always of the stance of, now we don't

214
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:10,680
Speaker 3: need more than four teams. I'll split the difference. We'll

215
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,719
Speaker 3: have about six teams, and the first two get a buy.

216
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 3: Something along those lines. But now that we've seen the

217
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 3: college football Playoff, my favorite part of it is the

218
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 3: home atmosphere. I think it's awesome. I think everything about

219
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 3: it is awesome. The fan base. In talking to LeVar

220
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 3: who was in State College for the SMU game, Brady

221
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,839
Speaker 3: who was there for Notre Dame Indiana, it's fantastic. And

222
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 3: so I do understand the idea of you expand it,

223
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 3: you give teams the home game. I also think, dude,

224
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 3: we're like a little over a year in the sample

225
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,079
Speaker 3: size is too small to be like, yep, that's what

226
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 3: it is. Teams on a buy, they struggle. It's a disadvantage.

227
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,719
Speaker 3: Like in Major League Baseball with the playoffs, like there

228
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 3: was this thought that well, you know, hey, if you've

229
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 3: got the buy when.

230
00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 5: They expanded the wild card.

231
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 3: That's a disadvantage because the Dodgers to the Padres, It's like, okay, man,

232
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 3: like there's one play here or there, and it completely

233
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 3: changes the conversation. I think we need to wait a

234
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 3: couple of years before we get a true understanding. And

235
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 3: I'm with you, like, I don't know that anything would

236
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 3: be shocking today other than maybe ole Miss winning just

237
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 3: based on the storyline with Lane Kevin leeing.

238
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 2: Sure and in knowing you for years, Joel Klatt made

239
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,959
Speaker 2: waves recently, but I felt you said something similar when

240
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 2: talking about the NCAA Tournament, the men's basketball tournament of

241
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 2: just basically how it's not not a fair way to

242
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,839
Speaker 2: really determine who the who the best team is.

243
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 1: We love it because of the brackets.

244
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, what I also think we love about college football

245
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 2: is we actually love the matchups. And this has meant

246
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 2: no disrespect to Miami, but a Miami Ole Miss game

247
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 2: is not great for college football as a whole. In

248
00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:00,160
Speaker 2: a semifinal as opposed to Ohio State and Georgia, you

249
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 2: start to look at how do we protect our better teams?

250
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 1: And it's not that Ohio State doesn't need protection. Georgia

251
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 1: doesn't need production.

252
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 2: If you want to set up your best possible matchups,

253
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 2: the way to do that then would be to have

254
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 2: quarterfinals at home. To the point that Dan Lanning made

255
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 2: that you emphasized, because that would then allow them the opportunity.

256
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 2: And it's not that Ohio State needs protection or Georgia

257
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 2: needs protection. It's that the top four seeds may need protection.

258
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 2: And that's what's better for college football to have your

259
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,079
Speaker 2: best teams there at the end. It's why the NBA

260
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 2: did away with a five game first round playoff best

261
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,559
Speaker 2: of five first round playoff series because they didn't want

262
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 2: to see the Kenby Mutumbo lying on the court with

263
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 2: the basketball while the number one seeded Sonics go home

264
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 2: like That's the reason they didn't want their best team

265
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:50,440
Speaker 2: in the West to not be there for the final

266
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 2: two months of the season. So, if you're college football,

267
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 2: because it's it's Ohio State in this situation, and it

268
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 2: may be Ohio State in more years than it would

269
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 2: be Miami, but you also want to make sure that

270
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 2: your bracket is entertaining. And I don't know if we

271
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 2: get a final four of Texas Tech, Indiana, Miami, and

272
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 2: Ole miss off of last year's Ohio State, Texas, Penn State,

273
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 2: Notre Dame.

274
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:18,840
Speaker 1: If we're going to get that same sort of interest.

275
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,719
Speaker 3: Do you think people were thrilled in college football when

276
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 3: it was TCU Georgia and the national championship?

277
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 1: I know I wasn't because I left in the third quarter.

278
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, like I was there too. I didn't make it

279
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 5: that far.

280
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 3: I did not make it that far because that also

281
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 3: was a torrential downpour and I got lost in the

282
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 3: parking lot try to find my truck.

283
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 5: But I just I look at it.

284
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 3: And when people complain about, well, you know, the brand

285
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 3: name teams and the big brand teams and all this

286
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,559
Speaker 3: stuff and they get all the advantages, it's like, well,

287
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 3: first of all, you have.

288
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 5: To earn that, Okay, so you earn that over time.

289
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 3: And secondly, without I know, nobody wants to just admit this,

290
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 3: like this is a TV show. Ultimately, it's a TV product.

291
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 3: And so yeah, man, do you think they want Ole

292
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,600
Speaker 3: Miss to be Georgia. No, they would love to set

293
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 3: up Hey, Carson Becks and his former team, Like they'd

294
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 3: love to present that because that would be a better

295
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 3: sell than Ole Miss.

296
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 1: Might.

297
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 5: It just would be And.

298
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 3: People that get upset about that or get sensitive about it.

299
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,560
Speaker 3: Tough balls man like that. That's the way of the world.

300
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 3: And so they are trying to set this up to

301
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 3: give the most compelling matchups. And if you were to

302
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 3: just say, right now, even after last night, who are

303
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 3: the best four teams in college football? I think we

304
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 3: all kind of know the rest of it is all

305
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 3: just kind of you know, add ons like it just

306
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 3: is what it is.

307
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 5: You're going to get.

308
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 3: You're going to get a name brand team at the end,

309
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 3: because the name brand teams are the best teams in

310
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 3: college football.

311
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 2: And the expansion, there's some talk about maybe going from

312
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 2: twelve to fourteen. That wouldn't necessarily solve the buy. By

313
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 2: the way, there's some people who feel our good friend

314
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 2: John Ramos says, you know what the World Series is

315
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 2: the World Series. If the Dodgers went back to back, great,

316
00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 2: If the Rangers beat the Diamondbacks same amount, guess what,

317
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 2: it's the World Series you should watch. And I don't

318
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 2: think a lot of people think that way. And so

319
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 2: I know there's someone in their car saying, you know,

320
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 2: why do we give favors? Why do we start a

321
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 2: TV show? We need to determine the champion. They are

322
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 2: determining the champion. But you're you'd be an idiot to

323
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 2: think that these conversations aren't happening all the time within

324
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 2: these committee meetings and figuring a way to make changes

325
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 2: and make this better.

326
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: It's a reason why.

327
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a reason why Boise State is no longer

328
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 2: going to get a first round by like after one

329
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 2: year they realized, yeah, maybe this isn't the greatest sort

330
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 2: of thing, Arizona State boys, let's make a change.

331
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, it work.

332
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 3: Four seeds there works up. And also look Nick Saban.

333
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 3: When Nick Saban comes out who works on ESPN and

334
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 3: goes on a rant talking about how we should have

335
00:15:55,760 --> 00:16:00,160
Speaker 3: Notre Dame in over James Madison and he works at ESPN,

336
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 3: and he's the one telling you this doesn't make any sense.

337
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 3: And it's like it's not like he's just making that

338
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 3: up for a hot take. No, Like if you were

339
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,160
Speaker 3: a college from when you're looking around, they're probably saying

340
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 3: to themselves, damn, we could have had Notre Damon, Like

341
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 3: you know, we could like that's a name brand, we

342
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 3: could have had it. And I do think that it's

343
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 3: probably going to expand to sixteen, which I'm fine with. Like,

344
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 3: I also think that there's this and I don't know

345
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 3: if you felt this as well too. There's way too

346
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 3: much complaining over something that if we just were to

347
00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 3: like rush past, it's pretty awesome, Like it's a college

348
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 3: football playoff, and it's pretty awesome, and we're gonna get

349
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 3: to see more games and more big games, like we

350
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 3: got three more today, we had one last night. Like,

351
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 3: I still think that's awesome and that's great for the

352
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 3: sport because you could go through it, and we were

353
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 3: talking about this this week. You could go through every

354
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 3: playoff format in every single sport and find a flaw,

355
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 3: and trust me, we're going to get into a big one.

356
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 3: The NFL has come up, but you could go to

357
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 3: the NBA and say, do we really have to have

358
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 3: a seven game series? Like I think we kind of

359
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:07,880
Speaker 3: know who's the better of the eight versus one team,

360
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,160
Speaker 3: Like you could go through every single play Major League Baseball,

361
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,359
Speaker 3: Like you could go through all of it and find

362
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,400
Speaker 3: a flaw. Yeah, the college football Playoff has some flaws.

363
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 3: I still think overall, in general, I've been pleased with the.

364
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 2: Product thus far. Yeah, I'm curious to see what it's

365
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,959
Speaker 2: going to be like next week. Especially with Miami. Miami

366
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,120
Speaker 2: doesn't have as big of a fan base. It's more

367
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,880
Speaker 2: substantial than maybe some would think.

368
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: But it's not like a Georgia or Ohio state.

369
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,359
Speaker 2: So now you've got the Texas A and M game,

370
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,199
Speaker 2: which maybe we're a little bit more difficult to get

371
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:39,160
Speaker 2: tickets to because it's.

372
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 1: An A and M home game.

373
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 2: Then you're in Dallas, and now you've got to go

374
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 2: and play in a Fiesta Bowl in Glendale, Arizona. And

375
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:46,880
Speaker 2: the saving grace for them was it'd be a home

376
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 2: game for the National Championship. But we've talked about this

377
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:55,240
Speaker 2: a lot when Big Ten, you know, got a championship game,

378
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 2: and now you're trying to determine when the college football

379
00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:59,719
Speaker 2: Playoff came in, what game am I going to go to?

380
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 1: Am I going to pay? As a fan?

381
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 2: I'm curious to see what the fans in stadium experience

382
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,919
Speaker 2: is like in the Fiesta Bol when you now have

383
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 2: Miami in a school from the SEC playing in the

384
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 2: middle of the desert in Arizona. Yeah.

385
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,320
Speaker 3: And I also think, I mean, based on some of

386
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 3: the extra curriculars in Miami, you know, like that stuff

387
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 3: isn't cheap so you know, to be able to expect

388
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,919
Speaker 3: them to pay for tickets out in Arizona when they

389
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:24,399
Speaker 3: got to somehow figure out how they could make the

390
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:25,879
Speaker 3: commute because they're not going to be allowed on the

391
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 3: plane with whatever they're carrying. I think is also something

392
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,920
Speaker 3: that should be factored anywhere. You know, these are problems.

393
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,959
Speaker 3: By the way, where are the sandwiches? Like, we're halfway

394
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 3: through the show and I haven't sperience look at brown

395
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,159
Speaker 3: I just you know, it's eventually as soon as they

396
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 3: opened up.

397
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:43,719
Speaker 1: I think the thought that was your job. I don't know.

398
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:44,199
Speaker 3: I did.

399
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 5: I take no prisoners, that take no sandwiches.

400
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:50,120
Speaker 3: By the way, update kirk Curve Streets on hat number three,

401
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 3: So he went blue towel, he went white hat. And

402
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 3: now they've somehow finagled a gray Rose Bowl hat for

403
00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:58,119
Speaker 3: kirk Curve Street.

404
00:18:58,960 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: What is going on?

405
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,439
Speaker 2: That hat cost sixty five dollars If you merchant my stamp,

406
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 2: I guarante that's autiver Sety.

407
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,120
Speaker 1: I was like, why are we gonna go Rose Bowl again?

408
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:09,240
Speaker 3: Hey, by the way, we'll take eight whether way. You

409
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 3: know what hat I still have. Remember we went to

410
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,439
Speaker 3: the US Open in Oakmont. Yeah, and I bought that

411
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 3: farmer's hat for no reason whatsoever. I look like Tom

412
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 3: Kite for no reason. I still have it. It works great.

413
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:24,680
Speaker 3: Oh that was fifty bucks. Hey, you got a decade

414
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,199
Speaker 3: decade long? Well, because I was like, man if I

415
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 3: got to blow through my per diem because I didn't

416
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:30,399
Speaker 3: want to have to go back to annie Z and

417
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 3: be like, hey, I didn't spend it all, why not?

418
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:35,560
Speaker 3: So you know what I just uh so I still

419
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:37,560
Speaker 3: got it though, So Kirk Curve Street Lea is gonna happen.

420
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 2: You almost got electrocuted and struck by lightning. So that

421
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 2: is made out with the per diem. That's true.

422
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 3: Close as I ever came to a tornado, which I've

423
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 3: been wanting. That's my life goal is to tony feet.

424
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:48,119
Speaker 1: It was.

425
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:52,160
Speaker 3: And we're at the We're at the makeshift tent at

426
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 3: Radio row at in Oakmont at the US Open in

427
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 3: twenty sixteen, and there's lightning strikes knocking out everybody's power.

428
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 2: By the way, as someone who grew up in the

429
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 2: Midwest like Mark did, we had tornado drills. The thing

430
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,679
Speaker 2: that they told you to not do. They said, don't

431
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:12,920
Speaker 2: go into tents with metal bars and lights and electricity

432
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 2: above you, And that was the entire media. Ye, yes,

433
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 2: you take shelter, you go underground. You don't go into

434
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:23,679
Speaker 2: a tented building with scaffolding and electricity above you.

435
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:25,120
Speaker 1: It's not not ideal.

436
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 3: And I couldn't figure out why Lee Trevino wouldn't stop

437
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,359
Speaker 3: by for a hit. I couldn't figure it out. I

438
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 3: don't understand. I just know what.

439
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 1: I don't know what the problem. I don't know what

440
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 1: the deal is either, what.

441
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:34,639
Speaker 5: Does he got a past of that stuff? It was

442
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 5: Lee Trevino, right, did I get my Yeah, he did

443
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 5: have a dad who doesn't know their lightning strike.

444
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 1: Went over my head.

445
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 2: I just thought you were naming a random golfer. But yes,

446
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 2: it was Lee timple Ball.

447
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:44,680
Speaker 5: Do that, Dan?

448
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 6: Yeah?

449
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,640
Speaker 5: This close to being the guy from Caddyshack. Yeah, it's awesome.

450
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 5: It was awesome.

451
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,159
Speaker 3: It was great, but and for and also a the

452
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 3: other side. But I don't know if you remember this.

453
00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 3: I remember opening up the curtain to the hotel we

454
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 3: were staying. I think it was like a Hyatt suits

455
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 3: or something like that, and literally the freeway was right there,

456
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,680
Speaker 3: like if a car took too wide of a turn,

457
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,439
Speaker 3: he was going to end up through the window in

458
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:16,440
Speaker 3: the confluence of rivers and highways and bridges in downtown Pittsburgh.

459
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,440

Speaker 1: We were talking about Raven Steelers earlier.

503
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 2: The Saturday slates in the NFL has the NFC South

504
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 2: being decided and then the number one overall seed in

505
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 2: the NFC. So what that leaves for the rest of

506
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 2: the schedule at one o'clock Eastern time in four to

507
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,679
Speaker 2: twenty five Eastern time on Sunday is a lot of

508
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 2: jockeying for position. And it's even that Jonas there are

509
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 2: some positions where the Eagles and Bears are going to

510
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 2: have decisions to make the AFC's number one overall seeds

511
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,359
Speaker 2: still up for grabs, but the Chargers aren't playing any

512
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 2: of their players, so that's good news for the Broncos

513
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,679
Speaker 2: who sit in the cat bird seed. But yeah, just

514
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 2: deciding on whether to play guys or not play guys

515
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 2: if you want to be here two or a three

516
00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:56,120
Speaker 2: seed is kind of the big drama that we've got

517
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 2: Sunday afternoon.

518
00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think as far as the NFC goes, Fill

519
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 3: is reportedly going to be resting Jalen Hurts and other starters.

520
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 3: They've got Washington, so Tanner McKee. I believe it was

521
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:10,160
Speaker 3: going to be the starting quarterback for Philadelphia and Washington.

522
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 3: I have no idea, like I mean at this point,

523
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 3: like you know, Mark Rippon might come back and we'll see.

524
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 3: But I just I wonder because if Philly wins and

525
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 3: the Bears lose, they'll be the two seed, meaning the Eagles,

526
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,400
Speaker 3: and they would get the Packers in the opening round

527
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 3: as the two seven, and if they stay at three,

528
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 3: they're either going to get the Rams or the forty

529
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 3: nine ers. I'd much rather face green Bay based on

530
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:36,119
Speaker 3: how banged.

531
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:36,400
Speaker 1: Up they are.

532
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,200
Speaker 5: I mean, like they're you know.

533
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,200
Speaker 3: Signing guys left and right just to try and fill

534
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:44,359
Speaker 3: spots to have anybody. But I do get the approach

535
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 3: of we want to make sure we're totally healthy going

536
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:51,199
Speaker 3: into this thing. It just is kind of interesting to

537
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:54,480
Speaker 3: see what's the best way to play it because it

538
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:58,199
Speaker 3: is a wide open year. So although you'd like I

539
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 3: look at it and I go if I'm the Bears,

540
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 3: I don't know that I want to see Green Bay

541
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,360
Speaker 3: because they know them so well. You've seen them twice already.

542
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,119
Speaker 3: They lost the first one. The Bears probably should have

543
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 3: lost the second one. So it just feels like one

544
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 3: of those Yeah, you want to be healthy and you

545
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 3: want to be ready to go, and I know you're

546
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,200
Speaker 3: looking for advantageous matchups. I just think it's so wide

547
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:19,920
Speaker 3: open this year that I don't know that there are

548
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 3: any other than you know, you get the NFC Soft team.

549
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, that's the cap bird seat. And that actually

550
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 2: throws into bear with me, Jonas. I understand that you

551
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 2: want to have a buy. That would be great. The

552
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,119
Speaker 2: goal for every team is to have the buy and

553
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 2: home field advantage. It is such an advantage over everything

554
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,680
Speaker 2: else of the other six playoff seeds. But I want

555
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 2: you to hear me out, and this has to do

556
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:50,000
Speaker 2: with the Seahawks San Francisco game, because I do think

557
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,480
Speaker 2: that the Bears should just go for it after what

558
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 2: happened last year, be the you know what, We're just

559
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:56,440
Speaker 2: going to go for it. We're going to be the

560
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 2: number two seed. That's what we want to do. We're

561
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,880
Speaker 2: gonna play our guys, We're gonna play it. And it's

562
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,160
Speaker 2: not a matter of we don't care who we play.

563
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 2: It's just a matter of we want to do what

564
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 2: we think is best for us, and that would be

565
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,879
Speaker 2: to get the highest seed. Possible, but I don't know

566
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 2: if the highest seed possible when it comes down to

567
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:16,679
Speaker 2: the Seahawks in forty nine ers is maybe the better option.

568
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 1: Hear me out on this.

569
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 2: So if the Seahawks win, they are the one seed,

570
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:28,359
Speaker 2: and that would put then San Francisco or LA at

571
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 2: the five or six seed. The forty nine ers in

572
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 2: RAMS can beat the Seahawks in Seattle like the Rams

573
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,440
Speaker 2: were an overtime you know, two point conversion from beating them.

574
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 2: The Niners half beaten them. In fact, the forty nine

575
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 2: ers went to LA and beat the Rams when mac

576
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,160
Speaker 2: Jones was starting a quarterback and brock Perty was out.

577
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,280
Speaker 2: The Rams went to San Francisco and ended up beating

578
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 2: the forty nine ers. Those three teams, it doesn't Matt.

579
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 2: You can play it on Mars like it's going to

580
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,119
Speaker 2: be a good game. So here's my point. So if

581
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 2: Seattle is the number one overall seed and we think

582
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 2: Green Bay is kind of out of it, let's just

583
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 2: say they are for the sake.

584
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:07,679
Speaker 1: Of this argument.

585
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 2: If you're Seattle, you're getting a buye forty nine ers

586
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,960
Speaker 2: in Rams or RAMS and then guess what or the

587
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 2: next round if you win, maybe forty nine Ers or

588
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,679
Speaker 2: Rams like that would be a murders. I would almost

589
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:24,440
Speaker 2: rather play Carolina on the road then maybe have to

590
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 2: play the Bears or Eagles and then have to deal

591
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:27,639
Speaker 2: with one of those teams.

592
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:28,680
Speaker 1: Do you know what I'm saying?

593
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 5: Like it's just the familiarity of it.

594
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, to that point.

595
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 2: And I don't think that there's any advantage for the

596
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:37,480
Speaker 2: Seahawks to be home in a game against the Rams

597
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,440
Speaker 2: or San Francisco. The Seahawks lost in LA in the

598
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 2: game that they actually dominated. They turned the ball over

599
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,199
Speaker 2: four times. The reason why they lost the game, but

600
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 2: it wasn't because of the home field advantage of it.

601
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 2: And so when you want to talk about a path,

602
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,920
Speaker 2: the bye is the ultimate the rest that you want

603
00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 2: to get. Home field is great, but I don't think

604
00:27:56,040 --> 00:28:00,920
Speaker 2: homefield matters as much to Seattle or San Francis. If

605
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,159
Speaker 2: you have the Rams or San Francisco coming to your

606
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 2: building and the way the bracket would break out, I

607
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 2: wouldn't want to face both of those teams. I would

608
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 2: try to minimize it as much as possible. I almost

609
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 2: think it would be better to go play Carolina, the

610
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:14,920
Speaker 2: Bears or Eagles and then try to settle it in

611
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 2: the NFC Championship game. I know it sounds ridiculous, but

612
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,199
Speaker 2: when you're talking about paths, that actually may be a

613
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 2: better path than being the number one overall seeds.

614
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think there are two bye weeks in the

615
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,399
Speaker 3: NFC playoffs. It's the one in the five seed, all right,

616
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 3: heavy bye weeks? Like you know, so like its just

617
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:34,439
Speaker 3: I mean, Carolina and Tampa is a cute story at all,

618
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,439
Speaker 3: and somebody's got to win it, so that's awesome, But

619
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 3: come on, man, like that division sucks. Tyler Shuck has

620
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 3: become a legitimate Rookie of the Year candidate based on

621
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 3: games he's played in that division. Okay, that's how bad

622
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 3: that division is.

623
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,200
Speaker 2: There is a scenario the Saints could be the second

624
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 2: best team, like with tigh breakers and how it breaks down,

625
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 2: they could have gotten the second best the second toughest schedule.

626
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 1: They're like, what we were tanking this year? Like how

627
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 1: did this happen.

628
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 3: In the Atlanta and the Atlanta three way tie scenario

629
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:03,920
Speaker 3: is still out there.

630
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 5: It's like the whole thing is bananas. But yeah, I'm

631
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 5: with you.

632
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 3: It's it's one of those years where because of the history,

633
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 3: because I was thinking about this, and you would know.

634
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 5: This being a Seahawks guy.

635
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 3: What was the year when I believe Mark Bolger was

636
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 3: the quarterback for the Rams, and the Rams and Seahawks

637
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 3: met three times. They obviously in the regular season, and

638
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 3: then I believe the third time the team that had

639
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:32,800
Speaker 3: lost the previous two to one in the plane.

640
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it could have been three year old four.

641
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 2: That's probably about the Windows.

642
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 3: And I remember the conversation being it's really hard to

643
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:41,959
Speaker 3: beat a team three times, Like, it's really hard to do,

644
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:45,240
Speaker 3: and it's because of the familiarity that goes along with it.

645
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 3: And so if you did get the Rams, like, look,

646
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 3: you lost the first game, you know, you probably should

647
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 3: have lost the second game. Yeah, that's anybody's game, Like,

648
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 3: I don't care to your point where that's played. Same

649
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:01,120
Speaker 3: with the Niners. There's just too much familiar ciliarity. And

650
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 3: all of this is because the NFC South and the

651
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 3: NFC East.

652
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 5: Have been awful this year.

653
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 3: Had they done their damn part, okay, maybe this would

654
00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 3: have opened things up a little bit. But now you

655
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 3: are going to see this. It's going to make for

656
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 3: a really interesting and fascinating playoffs. But I just don't

657
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 3: know that there's really an advantage other than whoever gets

658
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 3: the five.

659
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, and playing Green Bay over the Rams or San

660
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 2: Francisco is an extreme advantage. And it's why I think

661
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,480
Speaker 2: that if the Bears just go all in, just win

662
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:33,920
Speaker 2: the game, even if Philly's doing whatever, you never know

663
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 2: how it's gonna end up playing out, just like we

664
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 2: didn't know how it was going to play out last year.

665
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 2: Green Bay played with their food, did whatever against the Bear.

666
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 2: Chicago wins, and the Commanders come back and Terry McLaurin

667
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 2: scores a late touchdown against the Cowboys and the Commanders

668
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 2: end up, Hey, look at us, green Bay's got to

669
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,640
Speaker 2: go to Philadelphia. Commanders end up getting the sixth seed,

670
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:53,600
Speaker 2: go to Tampa, beat them on a Sunday night, beat

671
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 2: the Lions, and then they're playing in the NFC Championship Game.

672
00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 3: I also think everybody is so like they're so so many.

673
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 3: There are flaws and identify easy to identify flaws with

674
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,760
Speaker 3: every single team.

675
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 5: Like you know you were.

676
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 3: You were playing out scenarios between the Seahawks and the

677
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 3: forty nine ers, and I believe one of the ones

678
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 3: we threw out was Sam Darnold throwing a pick to

679
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,840
Speaker 3: Fred Warner, who doesn't have a working leg at this point.

680
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 3: But like they're like that is a concern. If the

681
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 3: Bears are the two seed, has anybody seen their defense

682
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 3: and they don't get turnovers? It's SIV they got problems

683
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 3: like that, that's a real issue. It's not offense. Defensively,

684
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 3: they got problems. We know what Philly's problems are. And

685
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 3: then whoever wins the NFC South. It just feels like

686
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 3: everybody this year on both sides, really that it's a

687
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 3: really flawed playoffs in the NFL.

688
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: Isshue, do we just call them the NFC mouth?

689
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 2: I mean like you were like, really, it is a

690
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 2: bunch of hot air, Like that's that's all it is,

691
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 2: and that's all that division matters.

692
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 3: Can I ask you if you had to root for

693
00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:00,960
Speaker 3: one team to win the NFC South, who would be one?

694
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 3: And I mean the four, just of the two, just

695
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 3: of the two Tampa and Carolina Carolina?

696
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:07,960
Speaker 1: Yeah would yeah?

697
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 2: Because I don't want to hear like Baker's on a run,

698
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 2: like Baker's on a heater. Never know what Baker Mayfield's

699
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 2: gonna do. It's probably gonna throw an interception in the

700
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 2: red zone, because that's how the season's gone from oh

701
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:21,760
Speaker 2: geez against Miami, like and until Baker hates what about

702
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:22,600
Speaker 2: the creamsicles though?

703
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 1: Oh those? Yeah, that's was that where you thought I

704
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 1: was going?

705
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 2: Now, okay, but yeah, those greatest uniform in sports it

706
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 2: is Buco Bruce. They in fact, they should have duck

707
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 2: Bucko Bruce just into the Hall of Fame, like you

708
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 2: know what Philip Rivers is Like I'm bowing out. You

709
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 2: know what, Bucco Bruce.

710
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 1: You take his.

711
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 3: Spot, we'll vote, We'll vote for him with you, or

712
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:40,760
Speaker 3: take OJ's spot.

713
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:43,360
Speaker 1: I retired his number.

714
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 5: Well he's not doing anything.

715
00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 2: Is Michael Badgley really gonna make kicks with wearing number

716
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:48,040
Speaker 2: thirty two?

717
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 1: Yeah?

718
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 2: Like you're like really like like you're just welcoming fate,

719
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:56,160
Speaker 2: like bring it, bring it. I'm surprised, is it extra

720
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 2: point didn't triple doink right?

721
00:32:57,920 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 1: Instead? It was just blocked.

722
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 3: It's like, uh yeah, I look at it and I

723
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 3: go it's it's very flawed. But I'm with you. I

724
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:10,840
Speaker 3: would go Carolina as well too, just because the Bryce

725
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 3: Young Dave canal Like I've said this before, I think

726
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 3: Dave Canalis and Bryce Young are the two nicest people

727
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:21,120
Speaker 3: in the NFL. Like they just like seem like genuinely

728
00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 3: nice people, and it would be cool to see them

729
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 3: get an opportunity to go to the playoffs. I don't

730
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 3: know many Carolina Panther fans. I think I know too.

731
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 3: One of them is Big Mike, you know who works here,

732
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:34,720
Speaker 3: and I'd love nothing more than for him to come

733
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:35,360
Speaker 3: in and go.

734
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 5: Panthers, Like I want that to happen. Off, Bryce Young.

735
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:52,120
Speaker 2: Bitch, Patrick, I need you to come in early for

736
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:57,720
Speaker 2: two pros and NFC South champs.

737
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 5: Exactly what you would do.

738
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:02,760
Speaker 3: So I do want to see and live in a

739
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,520
Speaker 3: world where Carolina gets in with Bryce hung as their quarterback.

740
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:11,839
Speaker 3: But again, this is the AFC North version of the

741
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,719
Speaker 3: NFC in which it's going to be a one and

742
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:17,480
Speaker 3: done and whoever gets you in the first round is

743
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:18,799
Speaker 3: probably pretty pleased with it.

744
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:20,960
Speaker 5: Like they're probably pretty pleased with that matchup. It's the

745
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:22,760
Speaker 5: second by week of the NFC playoffs.

746
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 2: Yeah there's I'll tell you what I won't be doing

747
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 2: on Saturday, locking up in front of Panthers Buccaneers. What

748
00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:33,440
Speaker 2: are you doing, NFL? Just put it on a Sunday,

749
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 2: you know, like it's good. It's totally fine. You going

750
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,320
Speaker 2: to cancel plans again? You know, tell your wife?

751
00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 1: Sorry, babe, cancel plans? Yeah?

752
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:44,719
Speaker 5: I made them. What do you mean?

753
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 1: Sorry?

754
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:50,120
Speaker 2: Young and Baker for division supremacy. I have a colored

755
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,160
Speaker 2: grid that someone made of all the scenarios and because

756
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 2: of the Falcons tiebreaker, they can't even color in Carolina

757
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,399
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay like on what the scenario is hight Yeah,

758
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:02,000
Speaker 2: because of the Falcons ability, it's ruining everything. Way to

759
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:02,759
Speaker 2: go NFC South.

760
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:06,719

Speaker 2: Thirty years old? So that means Gary Danielson was calling

780
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 2: college football games six years before you were born. So

781
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:11,200
Speaker 2: a thirty six year broadcasting career added on to a

782
00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 2: college and NFL quarterbacking career. Well, that came to an

783
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:17,360
Speaker 2: end yesterday, Jonas. I don't know if he saw it.

784
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 2: On the Sun Bowl. The Arizona State Duke game was

785
00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:25,200
Speaker 2: kind of overshadowed. Great game, Duke ends up winning, but

786
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:30,839
Speaker 2: it's Gary Danielson's last broadcast. In his last broadcast, he's

787
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:36,400
Speaker 2: surrounded by his friends, his colleague Brad Nessler, all the

788
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,560
Speaker 2: crew around him on CBS. And this is how they

789
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 2: sent Gary Danielson off after thirty six years of broadcasting football.

790
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 1: And everybody else.

791
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:49,600
Speaker 8: I wanted everybody else in this shot saying goodbye.

792
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:51,239
Speaker 5: It's been team all the.

793
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:52,880
Speaker 1: Way, everything we've done.

794
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 8: Great camera crew, yes, we're all wearing Gary stickers. There's

795
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 8: the trikes you guys, as Verne would have said, appreciate it.

796
00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:05,840
Speaker 5: All, Yes, sir, Yes, sir. We are going to have

797
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:08,360
Speaker 5: a great time tonight. So look at those guys.

798
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:09,600
Speaker 1: How are we gonna get off?

799
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 9: There?

800
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:10,120
Speaker 1: Listen?

801
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:14,200
Speaker 5: One more thing. It's sometimes you can say, how do

802
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:14,799
Speaker 5: you get off?

803
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 1: This guy right here.

804
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:17,280
Speaker 7: Doing us.

805
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:31,640
Speaker 9: And it's a wide shot of like twelve people and

806
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:35,600
Speaker 9: you see a lady with the countdown five four. We

807
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,720
Speaker 9: know it in this business and may not have been Listen,

808
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:41,200
Speaker 9: We're gonna have our own what we call heartbreak coming

809
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:44,359
Speaker 9: up in just a little bit. But Gary Danielson, after

810
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 9: thirty six years of broadcasting, is like, I don't care

811
00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:48,400
Speaker 9: stop sign.

812
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 1: We're going right through it.

813
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:56,880
Speaker 2: So that is how Gary Danielson had this sign off

814
00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,320
Speaker 2: after thirty six years at CBS.

815
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,759
Speaker 3: I mean, when you think of Gary Danielson, what do

816
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:06,879
Speaker 3: you think of I think of the CBS theme music.

817
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 2: Yes, I think of SEC football, I think of everything. Yes,

818
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 2: I felt bad for him like the last two years

819
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:16,960
Speaker 2: because he used to be like we're live in Tusca,

820
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:20,800
Speaker 2: Lusa alongside Gary Danielson on Brad Neesler it's ELSU and

821
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:25,799
Speaker 2: Alabama and now they're like live from Minneapolis, purdw in Minnesota.

822
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:29,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, CP, we're gonna roll the boat. Gary.

823
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 2: Oh, like, hey, we're gonna give you two years of

824
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 2: Big ten mediocre football on your way out. Not only that,

825
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:41,080
Speaker 2: we're gonna cut off your goodbye speech. And I thought,

826
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:44,200
Speaker 2: what about a CBS. I don't know, like ran other

827
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:48,000
Speaker 2: broadcasts like memorable moments. Remember Super Bowl thirty two, John

828
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:51,239
Speaker 2: Elway finally beats the Packers or finally wins the Super

829
00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:53,880
Speaker 2: Bowl by beating the Packers, and I forget Pat Bowlin

830
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:58,600
Speaker 2: on the stage, the late Broncos owner about to give

831
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,280
Speaker 2: the Lombardi Trophy toe John Elway.

832
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:03,520
Speaker 5: WHOA.

833
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 8: I haven't wanted that this would be like, you know,

834
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:11,279
Speaker 8: I want to express my appreciation all my fans, my

835
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 8: coaching staff, and all my organization. But there's one thing

836
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 8: I want to say here tonight. There's only four words.

837
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 8: This one's bored.

838
00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:28,320

840
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,160
Speaker 5: Fist ones for Jason Alban.

841
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:40,319
Speaker 1: Mock out about it.

842
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 9: Years I felt really bad, but it's so so hilarious.

843
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:53,360
Speaker 5: It's unfortunate. Man, live TV.

844
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 2: It does and everybody's there, like the cruise there, you

845
00:39:57,600 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 2: don't get to see the crew a lot, and it's

846
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:01,759
Speaker 2: the last time. It's not like they can like then

847
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 2: do it on the other side where the local news is.

848
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:08,120
Speaker 2: So do you remember when Kevin Durant won the m

849
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:08,360

00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:10,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, of course I do.

851
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:14,000
Speaker 2: But if it was on CBS, this is probably what

852
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:14,879
Speaker 2: it would have sounded like.

853
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:16,919
Speaker 1: When something good happens to you.

854
00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:18,759

855
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:22,280
Speaker 11: look back to what brought me here. You made us believe,

856
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,600
Speaker 11: We kept us off the street, put clothes on our backs,

857
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:29,000
Speaker 11: food on the table. When you didn't eat, you made

858
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:32,440
Speaker 11: sure we ate. You want to sleep hungry? You sacrifice

859
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:32,719
