Speaker 1: assist on and off the field. That's why Helion and

38
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: we settle into a busy night, and we begin with

39
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: the Monday night football game and a memorable game. Not

40
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 1: a great game, well, I mean if you like turnovers,

41
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 1: it was close. The game went to overtime in the

42
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: Hood and Inglewood and up to no good. The Birds

43
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:13,640
Speaker 1: the reigning champions of the NFL and not playing like

44
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 1: it right now. No, they're not the bright lights of

45
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 1: Monday night football. The La Power Company was hosting the

46
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 1: team from Philadelphia, and Joe Bock Troy Aikman were there.

47
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: They had the call on ABC, So I don't saw

48
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: a game or not if we're watching. I was at

49
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: the game for a good chunk of it. Had to

50
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: leave early to get here. It's my duty to the

51
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: American people to come in here do sports talk. So

52
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: I couldn't be stuck in traffic. But Cameron Dicker, the kicker,

53
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 1: had to go ahead fifty four yard field goal. He

54
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: ended up kicking five field goals in the game. And

55
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 1: Tony Jefferson, who well, he intercepted on a tip pass

56
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts the one yard line and that lifted the

57
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: Chargers to a twenty two to nineteen victory over the

58
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 1: free falling Philadelphie Eagles. What a bunch of chumps the

59
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: Eagles are, and it was somewhat enjoyable to see the

60
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: very braggadocius Eagle fan base who looked a little numb

61
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: the way that Jalen Hurts was playing in this particular game. Now,

62
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 1: the better story is in the losing locker room, and

63
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 1: so that is where we're going to go. Jalen Hurts

64
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:34,480
Speaker 1: had to be kind a clunker, a clunker for the

65
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 1: ages for Jalen Hurts, who threw not one, not two,

66
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 1: not three, but four four interceptions and the Eagles committed

67
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 1: five turnovers in the game. Jalen Hurts said the two

68
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: for one. We'll get to that coming up in a minute.

69
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,040
Speaker 1: And here is the man of the hour, though, start

70
00:04:55,040 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 1: with Jalen Hurts. Here on the overtime, the Eagles had

71
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 1: gotten into field goal range, there was a penalty on

72
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 1: the Chargers on a fourth down play that extended the

73
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 1: drive for Philadelphia, which set up the interception and the

74
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 1: final blow, the final body blow, body blow. Here is

75
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts on what a night for intercession. Let's talk

76
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 1: about that last one.

77
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 3: I knew it was going to be a tight window throw.

78
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 3: I'd have to watch the film to see it from

79
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 3: the eyes film's point of view. Ultimately, it's a play

80
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 3: that I didn't make. You got to handle the ball

81
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:38,359
Speaker 3: That's a play that we've made a million times in

82
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 3: that scenario versus a cloud corner, and I didn't make

83
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 3: that play this time around.

84
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 1: Yes, you did not make that play. So the reigning

85
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: Super Bowl champions lose their season worst third in a row.

86
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,359
Speaker 1: They are just three games above five hundred. Now, the

87
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: good news is they're in the right division. The Giants

88
00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 1: aren't trying the Commander's blow and the Cowboys suck, so

89
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 1: they're in a good division. There's no one else who's

90
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:07,160
Speaker 1: even competing with them, so they've got that going in Philadelphia. However,

91
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 1: it doesn't change the fact that Eagles are a total

92
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: fraud in terms of being a Super Bowl content. Does

93
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 1: anyone disagree with that? Like, at this point we do

94
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 1: the show today, we have to worry about the show

95
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 1: right now, we do the overnight show at this moment.

96
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,919
Speaker 1: Is there a bigger pretender than the Philadelphia Eagles in

97
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 1: terms of actually winning anything the way they are right now?

98
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 4: My god?

99
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,600
Speaker 1: All right, but let's focus in and it's good jumping

100
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: off play. Let's focus in on the quarterback though, and

101
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,359
Speaker 1: let's discuss the question, what is Jalen Hurts play? What

102
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 1: is the smell around Jalen Hurts, Like, let's break it

103
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: down like that, right, what's Jalen Hurts play smell like

104
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: for the Eagles. So my thoughts on this, I've got

105
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: John Madden, Gator, and spicy margarita, and we will combine

106
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 1: all of these things together and we are going to

107
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,600
Speaker 1: put the biscuit in the basket. So a, the smell

108
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 1: surrounding Jalen Hurts is a pungent smell. It's punging it up.

109
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 1: It's so strong it's actually peeling the paint at the

110
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 1: link in Philadelphia's that bad. The paint's peeling down. It

111
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 1: smells so bad. And this was a masterpiece of malfunction.

112
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: And I'm happy I got to see something I've never

113
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: seen before that we're not sure has ever happened before,

114
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 1: and it happened on a Monday night game here. But

115
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 1: before we get to that, when I say that Jalen

116
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: Hurts went out there and had a masterpiece of malfunction,

117
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 1: it was a performance so historically awful it deserves its

118
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: own wing at the loof across the Atlantic there. It

119
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: just deserves its own spot in the museum. And forget

120
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: Van goll and the da Vini and all the greats

121
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts in this Monday night game was Jackson Pollock.

122
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: He was splattering turnovers in the air every way right

123
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: across the gridiron like a man who was playing possessed

124
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: by the spirit of abstract incompetence. That was Jalen Hurts

125
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 1: in this game. And you saw the play in particular

126
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 1: was interception, fumble, recovery and then fumble on the same play.

127
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 1: John Madden, if he were still alive, the ghost of

128
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 1: John Madden would call that the turnover. Tourducan is what

129
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 1: that was. That was a turnover to duccan. You got

130
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 1: the interception, you get the recovery, and then you get

131
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 1: the fumble. That's the Turducan of turnovers for Jalen Hurts.

132
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 1: Congratulations the rare double giveaway. The rare double giveaway on

133
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: one play. And the nerds claim that their data goes

134
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 1: back to nineteen seventy Apparently nothing happened before nineteen seventy eight.

135
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: Everything after nineteen seventy eight. They have no recorded history

136
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 1: of anyone sucking that much on one play like Jalen Hurts.

137
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:10,199
Speaker 1: And that's not quarterback play, mind you, that's finger painting

138
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 1: while on a dumb ball ride at Disney World is

139
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 1: what that was? Now Hertz who has gone recently from

140
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 1: the afterglow of the Super Bowl MVP to the LVP

141
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 1: as in lost Value Player. That's Jalen Hurts right now,

142
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 1: the LVP, the lost Value Player, and he's strapped right

143
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: in that cockpit of the Vomit comet and he's on

144
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 1: a full comic Kazi mission with that Philadelphia Eagles offense

145
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 1: right now. And this is not just a one night

146
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 1: stink bomb. As we know. We've been documenting here. We

147
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 1: have a talk show to do every day, and we

148
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 1: come in here and the Eagles are good for business

149
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 1: because they won the Super Bowl. They're supposed to be

150
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: good and they're underachieving and so it's always fun to

151
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 1: talk about teams like this, and they are really living

152
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 1: up to the suck mantra in Philadelphia. So the last

153
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,319
Speaker 1: five games, I mean, that's a good sample size. Is

154
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 1: that fair? That's fair? You're shaking her, Yeah, that's fair.

155
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,440
Speaker 1: So last five games, Jalen Hurts has a seventy two

156
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 1: point three passer rating. He's averaging six point four yards

157
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 1: per pass, completing less than sixty percent of his passes.

158
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 1: Despite running a rudimentary Eagles offense. And he's got five

159
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 1: interceptions now and three fumbles. And that's the way it's

160
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,560
Speaker 1: going for Jalen Hurts. And so that's not really a slump,

161
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:38,319
Speaker 1: mind you. That's a five alarm football funk, is what

162
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: that is for Jalen Hurts. And remember in the NFL,

163
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 1: there is no rest for the wicked. So right back

164
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 1: at it again for Jalen Hurts, although the competition does

165
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:52,840
Speaker 1: soften going forward. Now page two, let's talk about the

166
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: leadership vacuum in Philadelphia here, and there's a there's a

167
00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,959
Speaker 1: theme to the Eagles as they continue to have their

168
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 1: issues here. And the question is do you have any

169
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 1: confidence as an outsider, do you have any confidence that

170
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:13,000
Speaker 1: Nick Sirianni can stop the bleeding of the birds? Do

171
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 1: you have any confidence of that that day he can

172
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 1: get it done? There? So I'm gonna go nope on that.

173
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 1: That's nope for those of you who don't have to

174
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: spell nope. Zero confidence. And I don't know how anyone

175
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: can have confidence. The Eagles had a similar free fall

176
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 1: I think it was twenty twenty three. They never got

177
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 1: out of it, they never were able to stop it,

178
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 1: and Sirianni was the head coach of that team. The

179
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: Eagles right now are like the USS Gerald R. Ford.

180
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 1: They are an aircraft carrier, and they're very difficult to

181
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 1: turn around. Those aircraft carriers. It's like they're drifting sideways

182
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: in the Delaware River right now. And Nick Sirianni is

183
00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: standing on deck on the aircraft carrier and he's waving

184
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 1: pom poms, and instead of grabbing the wheel and trying

185
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 1: to turn, he's on, we're fine, Oh we're good. I

186
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:11,680
Speaker 1: love these guys. Oh they're so good. Let's play rock

187
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 1: papercis is what do you say? Okay, why not? We'll

188
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: play rock paperci Uh? Fine, So you don't turn around

189
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: the aircraft carrier by saying let's go right into the

190
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 1: headset that doesn't work. Here is Nick Sirianni on the

191
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:31,479
Speaker 1: four interception game for Jalen Hers. This here what Sirianni

192
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 1: had to say on this.

193
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 5: This game is the ultimate team game. So it's all

194
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 5: it's never you know, it's never just on one person. Ultimately,

195
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 5: he always has the ball in his hands, and I

196
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 5: know he'll he'll wear a lot of that and own

197
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 5: that and and I got to do a better job

198
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,960
Speaker 5: of helping them in those scenarios. Again, it's always it's

199
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,720
Speaker 5: never just on execution, right, It's it's always that we

200
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 5: look at ourselves as coaches first and we help them

201
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 5: be in position to succeed and then execute right. So

202
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 5: obviously now want to turn the ball over. We've been

203
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 5: pretty good at that, and tonight was a little uncharacteristic

204
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:06,080
Speaker 5: of ourselves.

205
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 1: So there's a couple of things here that are classic

206
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 1: deflection moves. Jalen hurts in the soundbock we played, So

207
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 1: I gotta watch the tape. That's a classic. I'm not

208
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 1: answering the question. I'm gonna say, I'm gonna watch the tape.

209
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: You'll never ask me about it again, or when you

210
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 1: ask me about it again, i'm gonna say, well, we've

211
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 1: moved on to the next game. And then the it's

212
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:30,959
Speaker 1: never on one guyline from Sirianni, when yeah, kind of is.

213
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 1: That's why the quarterback gets paid ten times with the

214
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 1: other players get it's on him, so you can say

215
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 1: whatever you want. It's a team game and all that. Well,

216
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 1: the team games are lost by individuals, and Sirianni is

217
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:48,440
Speaker 1: a show pony. He is a show pony. He's a

218
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: sideline cheerleader who thrives when the wind is at his back.

219
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 1: And when the wind changes and the storm hits, all

220
00:13:56,760 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 1: of a sudden, the high tides and the birds they

221
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 1: start leaking oil, and all of a sudden, Syrianni does

222
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:07,119
Speaker 1: a costume change and he becomes a gator. The inflator

223
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 1: Gator is Nick Sirianni. As he pumps air into every

224
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 1: minor issue, does not solve anything. And then it becomes

225
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 1: a full blown circus balloon. And that's the Eagles, and

226
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 1: it says, literally blocking the highway there, it's blocking Broad

227
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 1: Street there in Philadelphia. It's a mess. And so Jalen Hurts,

228
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 1: who looked like a man whose football soul had been mugged.

229
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: He was numb as a bug. And just the whole

230
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: thing is like, what is.

231
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 4: Going on here?

232
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 1: Passes were being tipped. They were just a little bit off.

233
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 1: And that's the difference between good and bad, success and failure.

234
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 1: And so you've got the AJ Brown situation where he

235
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 1: had a bunch of yards, but yet the underlying condition

236
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: is still alive. They're not singing from the same song sheet,

237
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts and AJ Brown. As you look at it.

238
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 1: The coughing is still there as thirteen targets and aj

239
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 1: Brown had six catches. There was a key drop in

240
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter down in the end zone in a

241
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 1: forty six percent catch rate, which doesn't appear to be

242
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 1: very good. It screams miscommunication for the Philadelphia Eagles, and

243
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: there's obviously a lot of frustration with a little dash,

244
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 1: just a little dash of Diva sprinkles on top at

245
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 1: this point. So the schedule, if there is a positive,

246
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 1: if you want me to be Benny Brightside, the positive

247
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 1: here is the schedule is cotton candy like the Eagles.

248
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 1: Even though the Eagles are trash right now, they still

249
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 1: should win three of their final four games to close

250
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 1: the regular seasons. Anyone want to push back on that?

251
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 1: Have you seen who they play? The Raiders? The Raiders

252
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 1: are up next in Philadelphia. The Raiders have already given up.

253
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 1: They are bunch of quick. They've got Geno Smith. That

254
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 1: tells you they're not trying to win. When you have

255
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 1: Geno Smith, you are trying not to win football games.

256
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 1: You're just trying to cover. And Pete did cover the spread.

257
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 1: Goodship by him. They do have to play the Bills,

258
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 1: that's in Buffalo, that'll be a loss. But then you

259
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: also have two games home and home with the Washington Commandos,

260
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 1: so they appear to quit or have quit the way

261
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 1: they played against the Minnesota Vikings. So that's what's up ahead. However,

262
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 1: right now, the Eagles, they don't need cupcakes is what

263
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 1: they need. Competence is what they they need here. And

264
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 1: so even if you beat up on the Raiders and

265
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: the Commanders a couple of times, you're not battle tested

266
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: when you eventually play a better team. And so Nick Sirianni,

267
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 1: he's not exactly stopping the bleeding here, and if anything,

268
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 1: he's picking at this gap. Now what's going to be

269
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: interesting is this was the kind of game and as

270
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: we were going through it, there's some chatter in the

271
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,400
Speaker 1: press box like that somebody's gonna get fired. Now I'm

272
00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 1: not saying Sirianni's gonna get fired, but this is the

273
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 1: kind of a performance when you know, and everyone's watching

274
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 1: your offense and people are questioning whether or not you

275
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,400
Speaker 1: should have demoted the offensive coordinator. This is the kind

276
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:13,880
Speaker 1: of game that gets Kevin Patulo sacrificed and whacked by

277
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,080
Speaker 1: the Eagles, Like that's the kind of game where he

278
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 1: will either be demoted or just removed from the coaching room.

279
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: So stay tuned on that. Now, last word on the

280
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:27,399
Speaker 1: Chargers side of things, show me your lightning bolt. Good

281
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 1: looking uniforms by the Chargers, right, they dressed for success.

282
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 1: They had that electric blue one on the Monday night.

283
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:40,199
Speaker 1: But can Jim Harbaugh Can Jim Harbaugh now exhale with

284
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 1: the Chargers getting the overtime win over the reigning champions

285
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:48,960
Speaker 1: of the NFL. So the answer to this is no,

286
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 1: It's just no on this one, and not even close.

287
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 1: I'm shaking my head now. No, just for those of

288
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,880
Speaker 1: you who can watch on the YouTube, we have Ben

289
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 1: Mather Show on YouTube. We're actually streaming the the monologue.

290
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: So I'm shaking my head. No, here's why I'm shaking

291
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: my head. No, all right, In fact, I'm shaking my head.

292
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna shake my head so much I'm probably need

293
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 1: a chiropractor. No no, no, no, no, no no no

294
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 1: no no no no no, like just like that. And

295
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 1: here's why this was an ugly duckling win. It is

296
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 1: an ugly duckling win. The offense, the defense was great.

297
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 1: The I say great, but the Eagles, the Eagles have

298
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 1: their own issues. But here's the deal. The offensive display here.

299
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 1: This was a capital you ugly is what it was

300
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,919
Speaker 1: you had, and you underline it. You can highlight it,

301
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:41,159
Speaker 1: however you want to put a spectacle around it, and

302
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 1: you put on a billboard if you want, on the

303
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 1: four h five. Take one of those ambulance chasing lawyer

304
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,159
Speaker 1: billboards off the four h five and put that that

305
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 1: up there. But depending on dicker, the kicker, the idiot

306
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:56,160
Speaker 1: kicker for five field goals. And this is we always

307
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 1: say the same thing with the Cowboys. It's a blessing

308
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 1: and a curse to have a great kicker. Cowboys in charge,

309
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 1: just have great kickers. It's a blessing and a curse

310
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 1: because you depend on the kicker and you don't win

311
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,679
Speaker 1: big games with field goals. You don't this ill regular

312
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:13,119
Speaker 1: season game, you won it. Congratulations. However, normally, when you

313
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 1: get five turnovers, am I not wrong in saying you

314
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 1: should win that game by thirty points? If you get

315
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 1: five turnovers, you're at home, You put your feet up,

316
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:25,680
Speaker 1: you grab a spicy margarita, and you enjoyed garbage time

317
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 1: and you play grab ass on the sidelines. That was

318
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 1: not what happened here. They were not on some kind

319
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 1: of Royal Caribbean cruise. They were not not the bolt

320
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 1: the Chargers who had turned Jalen Hurts, and Jalen was

321
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 1: very generous. It's the season of giving, and Jalen Hurts

322
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:45,640
Speaker 1: his generosity was generosity machine here for the Philadelphia Eagles,

323
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 1: and they managed to get. If my math is correct,

324
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,920
Speaker 1: I believe six points off five turnovers by the Eagles.

325
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 1: They only monetize those into six points. Two field goals.

326
00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:01,119
Speaker 1: That's all they got off five turnovers. Now they did

327
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 1: get the you know, technically the last one they sealed

328
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,680
Speaker 1: the game because that ended the game, the final interception,

329
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 1: But the other four they only got six points out

330
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,919
Speaker 1: of it, a couple of field goals. And this was

331
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: the type of game that you have to go back

332
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 1: in time. This was a super duper football follies VHS

333
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 1: tape the kind your uncle got at the gas station

334
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:30,919
Speaker 1: in like ninety three is what this was. And and

335
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,680
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert, he's playing hurt. They didn't touch. They didn't

336
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 1: talk about that at all on the broadcast, didn't they. No,

337
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert, who looked like he was trying to throw

338
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 1: a piano on every drop back. Now, the Eagles got

339
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 1: to him a fair amount. And this is the same

340
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 1: thing I say all the time. Just you're gonna repeat

341
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 1: yourself again, I know, yeah, say it about CJ. Stroud,

342
00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:00,440
Speaker 1: Gino Smith. I'm gonna say it about Justin Herbert. Rid

343
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: of the damn ball, Okay, rather of tat tat, get

344
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 1: rid of the ball, dummy, And Justin Herbert kept holding

345
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 1: onto the ball, holding on the ball, holding on the ball.

346
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 1: What are you doing? Just get rid of it and

347
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: throw it away, my god. And he had two fumbles, lost,

348
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:24,159
Speaker 1: one of them an interception. Under fifty percent. He's the

349
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 1: Golden child. Every broadcaster licks this guy's toes. Justin Herbert,

350
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:31,879
Speaker 1: I don't see it. I don't say he was holding

351
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 1: on the ball like was a family heirloom. Like, dude,

352
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,359
Speaker 1: it's just the duke. Get rid of the duke. The

353
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 1: Chargers had only two hundred seventy five yards of offense

354
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 1: in this game. They had sixteen first downs, two of

355
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 1: those via penalty by the Philadelphia Eagles. So you look

356
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 1: ahead now that you check the schedule, they play at

357
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 1: Kansas City. Kansas City's a lightweight this year, so you

358
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 1: play at Arrowhead. Then you've got at Dallas, the Texans

359
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 1: in la or in Inglewood, and then at Denver. That

360
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 1: is what's left. Four games left in the regular season

361
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: for the Chargers at this point. So that's not a

362
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 1: stretch round. That's a rocky road. Arrowhead not easy to

363
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 1: play at. Dallas has some good offense, although they're not

364
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,800
Speaker 1: a complete team, and so that's where we are. That's

365
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,439
Speaker 1: rocky road for Jim Harbaugh, and so you can't excel.

366
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 1: Plus Harbas's he's not like that. He doesn't exhale about anything.

367
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 1: He's always got to stick up his tookist, doesn't he

368
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,159
Speaker 1: That's what he looks like. It's one of those people

369
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:31,920
Speaker 1: and they can barely inhale.

410
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 1: As we begin this hour, still talk about the Monday

411
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 1: night game as the Chargers up in the Philadelphia Eagles

412
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:27,720
Speaker 1: at SOFI Stadium. A lot of angry birds, the Eagle

413
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 1: fan base not happy there. The Eagles go down and

414
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:33,639
Speaker 1: they go down hard in overtime game. They should have

415
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,880
Speaker 1: lost in regulation, but they ended up playing a little

416
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 1: extra time there in the overtime. But our lead this hour,

417
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,639
Speaker 1: all right, let's go to Indianapolis. That is the lead story.

418
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 1: And a hum dinger, What a homedinger. So with Daniel

419
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:52,640
Speaker 1: Jones out for the year, snapcrackle pop, and Riley Leonard

420
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:57,360
Speaker 1: listed a week to week, the old golden domer, Riley Leonard,

421
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 1: who has a strained kneele oh my aching knee. So

422
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 1: the Colts are scheduled later on Tuesday to work out

423
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers. Yes, that Philip Rivers, not his kid, the

424
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: same Philip Rivers. Yep, the charger Colt got yep that guy,

425
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,639
Speaker 1: and the state sponsored the NFL networked a proble the

426
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 1: news service of the NFL for informing us that the

427
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 1: workout is scheduled. Now, if you didn't hear about this,

428
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:35,639
Speaker 1: maybe not, it will it will coincide. It's it's Philip Rivers'

429
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:39,399
Speaker 1: birthday week this week, So happy birthday, Philip forty four

430
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:44,200
Speaker 1: years young, Happy birthday, Happy birthday. He last played in

431
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 1: an NFL game during the pandemic season of twenty twenty,

432
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,440
Speaker 1: was the last time he played. And the Colts are

433
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:57,480
Speaker 1: going to work out Philip Rivers. So they need help,

434
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 1: and so the Colts will work out Rivers, see what

435
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,800
Speaker 1: type of shape he's in. Matgin TV shows up and

436
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,440
Speaker 1: he looks like a sumo wrestler. Likely won't sign him,

437
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 1: but by all accounts, Rivers is in pretty good shape.

438
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 4: There.

439
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 1: So the former quarterback who is now a grandfather, that's right,

440
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 1: he's a grandfather, Philip Rivers, and he has to figure

441
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:21,879
Speaker 1: out whether or not he wants to play in the

442
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 1: NFL or not. For now, he is clearly considering and

443
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:32,160
Speaker 1: contemplating playing quarterback in Indianapolis, as he's willing to fly

444
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 1: from his native land in Alabama and go to Indy

445
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,120
Speaker 1: to hang out with the Colts and have a nice

446
00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,359
Speaker 1: meet and greet, a nice luncheon and all that. So

447
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 1: that is a good jumping off point. Let us discuss

448
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 1: the question what is crazier the fact that the Colts

449
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:54,719
Speaker 1: are interested in Philip Rivers or the fact that Philip

450
00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 1: Rivers is considering this and it didn't immediately say no.

451
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 1: What is the more ridonculous part of this story? So

452
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:10,080
Speaker 1: I've got family business, gold bar and turkey vultures, and

453
00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 1: we will combine all of these things together and we

454
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:17,879
Speaker 1: are going to make some delicious Saint Elmo's Surf and Turf,

455
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,360
Speaker 1: which we had famous dinner there years ago. Is doing

456
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 1: some radio stuff in Indy. We had to meal at

457
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 1: Saint Elmo's. It's really a right if you're in the

458
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 1: media to go to Saint Elmo's in Indianapolis and order

459
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:30,720
Speaker 1: the most expensive thing on the menu and just have

460
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 1: your company pay for it. That's the way to do it.

461
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 1: So number one, let me just start with the fact.

462
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 1: I know the fact that the Indianapolis Colts are so desperate,

463
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 1: they're so horny for a quarterback that they're rummaging through

464
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 1: the attic at their facility and they're opening up these

465
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 1: dust covered boxes, and they came across an old Philip Rivers.

466
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 1: Jersey said, Okay, I'll have an epiphany. Why don't we

467
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:06,360
Speaker 1: call Philip Rivers and see if he wants to play?

468
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 1: And he last played when TikTok was still a toddler.

469
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers, okay, And now he's a forty four year

470
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 1: old grandpa coaching. At last I heard he was coaching

471
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 1: high school football in Alabama. And so the arrow on

472
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:27,240
Speaker 1: this one, the arrow on this one is pointing squarely

473
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:30,560
Speaker 1: at the Colts, squarely at the Colts. That's just the

474
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:34,720
Speaker 1: way it is. And what are the horseshoes thinking? Even

475
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,760
Speaker 1: if Rivers comes in and does okay? Right, even if

476
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 1: he were to do okay, the risk factor at forty

477
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:46,480
Speaker 1: four years old, not being in the NFL shape, there

478
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 1: is his next level, right, it's next level. So this

479
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 1: franchise has yet again, this is what the culture. This

480
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 1: is what the culture. The Colts have entered the wack

481
00:29:56,960 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 1: a doodle twilight zone. Wack a doodle do what they do.

482
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 1: And you thought that jimmers say, when he crossed the

483
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 1: pearly gates and left this mortal coil, you thought, well,

484
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 1: that's it. The culture gonna be like every other NFL team.

485
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 1: They're not gonna do these wack of doodle things anymore

486
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,840
Speaker 1: because Jim Mersay would be on a bender and he'd

487
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 1: do these crazy things. So he had issues. Surprise, surprise, surprise,

488
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: because hey, he might no longer be with us, Jim irsay,

489
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 1: but his sweet daughter is carrying on the family business.

490
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 1: And I guess the apple does not fall far from

491
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,479
Speaker 1: the tree. The DNA it's baked into the ursa DNA.

492
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 1: There the family business, the whimsical football chaos. The same

493
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 1: family that brought us Jeff Saturday, the television guy who

494
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 1: was like a high school coach as an NFL head

495
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 1: coach a couple of years back, and that was the Horseshoes.

496
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,280
Speaker 1: And now we have the daughter going down a similar

497
00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 1: road with the quarterback and it's just next level. So

498
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: Indianapolis is basically what Indianapolis is doing here is there

499
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:13,760
Speaker 1: rebooting a classic sports movie, putting an NFL spin on

500
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 1: Major League the movie. Remember that that movie, Major League.

501
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 1: It's a classic movie. And in this scene, you've got

502
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 1: the general manager, Chris Ballard of Indianapolis on the phone,

503
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 1: ring ring, ring, Hey hey, Philip, it's Chris Ballard, the

504
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 1: GM of the Indianapolis Colts. You want to play quarterback

505
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 1: in the NFL for the Colts again? And then Rivers responds, well,

506
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. Let me get back to

507
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:39,720
Speaker 1: you on that. Christ. I got a kid doing burpies

508
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,040
Speaker 1: here in high school football practice. I'll get back to

509
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 1: Rivers has been retired. I assume when you retire, you

510
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 1: play shuffle board and you play bingo and you hum

511
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 1: Jimmy Buffett tunes from Latitude Margaritaville. That's what you do. No,

512
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 1: all right, And so India is so desperate. How desperate

513
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:03,960
Speaker 1: are they? They're so desperate Indianapolis here, they're so desperate

514
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:09,240
Speaker 1: that they are they're actually doing this. They're checking aarp

515
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 1: cards at quarterback and saying, hey, you got a membership,

516
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 1: You're good to go. Here we go and uh and

517
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 1: what a great gig though there's only four games to go.

518
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:20,840
Speaker 1: Maybe you get to the playoffs and play an extra

519
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 1: game or two if you're Philip Rivers there And what

520
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,360
Speaker 1: are you going to get a million dollars to play

521
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 1: the rest of the year or something like that, some

522
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 1: absurd amount of money. Let me tell you something. The

523
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 1: holidays are here, and those Christmas gifts do not pay

524
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:35,000
Speaker 1: for them? Say you got he's got like ten kids.

525
00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: I think he needs one more. He can feel his

526
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:41,960
Speaker 1: own eleven man roster on the play both ways. But

527
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:45,959
Speaker 1: this is Malard theater is what this is, Okay, embracing

528
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 1: the absurd. And while I think it will not work,

529
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 1: I love the fact that Colts are doing. It's so crazy,

530
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 1: so bonkers. It's like, what are you doing? And this

531
00:32:56,240 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 1: is how the NFL's operated current Warner told stories. He

532
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 1: left the NFL, he said for like five years after

533
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 1: he left the NFL. People were calling up, Hey, how

534
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 1: would you like to come back and play quarterback? All right?

535
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 1: Now to San Francisco we go. Follow up, follow up

536
00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 1: to the mouthy wide out by the Bay forty nine

537
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 1: is wide receiver Jawan Jennings. Not a household name. Not

538
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 1: a household name, Jawan Jennings. He was asked about his

539
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 1: war of words, uh with the Cleveland Browns. You might

540
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:31,800
Speaker 1: remember defensive tacker tackle Shelby Harris who announced to the

541
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 1: world that Juwan Jennings is a what what is? That's right?

542
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 1: Demand's a how all right? And so he went on

543
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:43,800
Speaker 1: and said that Jennings said things you should never say

544
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 1: to another man, that's right, And Shelby Harris went on

545
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 1: as this big rant and said, well he said that,

546
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 1: and he said surprised he sees exactly why the Carolina

547
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 1: Panthers punched him in the nuts, and surprised somebody hasn't

548
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 1: punched him in the jaw. And then Miles Garrett responded

549
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: by saying he also took issue with whatever Juwan Jennings

550
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 1: said in that forty nine Ers Browns game. And then,

551
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 1: of course, well, Shelby Harris just again said your hoe

552
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:16,799
Speaker 1: and that's that's it. But the question on this one,

553
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:19,719
Speaker 1: so the response, let me, let me give you a

554
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:23,719
Speaker 1: responsible So the response by Juwan Jennings, he says he

555
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:28,200
Speaker 1: did not he did not say anything that bad to

556
00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,880
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns. So the question, all right, question on

557
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,959
Speaker 1: this Juwan Jennings says, I didn't say anything that bad

558
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:36,399
Speaker 1: to the Browns. How do you break this one down?

559
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna break this down this way. So it's

560
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:43,680
Speaker 1: a he said, he said situation. The whole Juwan Jennings

561
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:48,840
Speaker 1: Shelby Harris dust up. It's like two guys arguing on

562
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:54,280
Speaker 1: who insulted who louder in the nightclub bathroom while someone's

563
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,160
Speaker 1: there trying to get a tip and hand you some

564
00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,319
Speaker 1: cologne you don't need and some candies you don't need

565
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 1: in the bathroom. It's that kind of thing. So the

566
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,799
Speaker 1: way I look at this, and I am the judge, jury, executioner,

567
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:10,719
Speaker 1: all that stuff. So nobody is innocent on this. Nobody

568
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 1: is in everyone's guilty. Everyone's got blood on their hands

569
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 1: and all it. The only truth is somewhere floating in

570
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:21,240
Speaker 1: the stadium rafters there, uh you know, Shelby Harris calling

571
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 1: Jennings a what that's right? A ho ho ho ho,

572
00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:30,120
Speaker 1: that's right. That is radio gold is what that is?

573
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,400
Speaker 1: That is radio gold. And it really is in the

574
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:37,160
Speaker 1: holiday season in we could make our own song with

575
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,439
Speaker 1: just him saying ho ho ho. Let's try it. Let's see,

576
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 1: here's Shelby Harris his new holiday song. He's now Santa Claus.

577
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 1: Go ahead say it, Shelby. Come on, here's a hope

578
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 1: on non no, oh oh man, we butchered it. Let's

579
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 1: try that. Yeah, here's a hope yeah, oh man. See

580
00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,360
Speaker 1: there's a glitch. It's the Gremlins, but it would be

581
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 1: he's a hoe' he's a ho, he's ho. So anyway, listen,

582
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 1: that is the kind of SoundBite when you do this

583
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,360
Speaker 1: job for a living. That is the kind of SoundBite

584
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,400
Speaker 1: you wrap in velvet and you keep that in a

585
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 1: trophy case. How often do we have someone call another

586
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,840
Speaker 1: player a hoe? It doesn't happen very often. So here's

587
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:22,920
Speaker 1: the twist, though, And I gotta be an accurate arbitrator

588
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:26,759
Speaker 1: of what goes on. And so the Mallard scorecard as

589
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 1: a longtime boxing judge on these verbal rhubarbs. So the

590
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:38,360
Speaker 1: Malard scorecard that outburst actually by by Shelby Harris handed

591
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 1: this to Juwan Jennings. I give the wind to Jennings,

592
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:47,400
Speaker 1: and here's why, because the moment it's the bro code,

593
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 1: the moment you go public with locker room or on

594
00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:55,960
Speaker 1: field talk, locker room talk or on field talk. The

595
00:36:56,000 --> 00:37:00,080
Speaker 1: moment that you do that, you have breaked the the

596
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:05,920
Speaker 1: golden wall, if you will. You've broken the the kfabe

597
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:09,680
Speaker 1: that they have in wrestling, and you've ruined all the fun.

598
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:13,759
Speaker 1: You violated the code of silence that what happens on

599
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:15,840
Speaker 1: the field stays on the field, what happens in the

600
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 1: locker room stays in much like Vegas, it just kind

601
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:23,160
Speaker 1: of stays there. And Jennings essentially said that yeah, I

602
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:28,480
Speaker 1: said something, but not that bad. And if he wants

603
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:33,080
Speaker 1: to smack me, you know, set your DVRs. Set your DVRs.

604
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 1: That's a pro wrestling heel energy by Juwan Jennings. And

605
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 1: the that's a man right there popping the balloon, popping

606
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:47,279
Speaker 1: the balloon and letting all the faux outrage, all the

607
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:52,160
Speaker 1: faux outrage hiss out like a cheap air mattress that

608
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:56,200
Speaker 1: gets popped right there. Let's be real. The chatter almost

609
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 1: certainly is a two way highway. It's not one way.

610
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,879
Speaker 1: It was also guaranteed to be obscene in decent and

611
00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 1: rated NC seventeen for language. Regardless. You kind of expect that,

612
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 1: right in competition. You assume there's gonna be a lot

613
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 1: of things said in the heat of the moment, the

614
00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 1: fog of competition. That's what happens. And it's not fit

615
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:24,040
Speaker 1: for broadcast. It's not for men and men, women and

616
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,920
Speaker 1: children who can't handle it. If you're fragile, it's not

617
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,840
Speaker 1: for you. And for us, it's absolutely perfect. We love it.

618
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:33,319
Speaker 1: We love it all right. Now the final point, we

619
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:36,120
Speaker 1: go to Jersey. We go to New Jersey where the

620
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:39,240
Speaker 1: New York Jets over the weekend. Congratulations to the Jets.

621
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:43,000
Speaker 1: Tremendous job boys, you have you have done it yet again.

622
00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:47,799
Speaker 1: The Jets, by losing to the Dolphins, have reclaimed sole possession,

623
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:54,279
Speaker 1: sole possession of the longest active postseason drought among the NFL, MLB, NHL,

624
00:38:54,400 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 1: and NBA at fifteen years without the post fifteen. That

625
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 1: means if you were born and are now in high

626
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:06,520
Speaker 1: school as a fifteen year old your entire life, the

627
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,640
Speaker 1: Jets have never made the playoffs in an age where

628
00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:12,439
Speaker 1: they have more playoff teams than ever in an age

629
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,439
Speaker 1: where it's designed to be topsy turvy, and you suck

630
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:16,800
Speaker 1: for a couple of years, then you're good for a

631
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:18,320
Speaker 1: couple of years. And that's the way they do business

632
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:21,480
Speaker 1: in the NFL. So following the defeat, we had multiple

633
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:25,960
Speaker 1: Jets players who spoke about the tradition of the franchise,

634
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:33,000
Speaker 1: including Brees Hall, who went on a mini rant Brisoll

635
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:36,080
Speaker 1: talking about, you know, the other players are having fun

636
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:40,280
Speaker 1: around the NFL away from the Jets, he said, Brisall,

637
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 1: he said, quote, it's a yearly thing. He said, it's definitely.

638
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 1: It starts to weigh on you. You see your peers, you

639
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:49,799
Speaker 1: see other guys that you know, you're just as good

640
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 1: as or better than, Brisall said, And they get to

641
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:57,080
Speaker 1: have a lot of fun, and you don't have any

642
00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:58,840
Speaker 1: fun apparently when you play for the Jets. So the

643
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:03,840
Speaker 1: question do you have any wisdom you'd like to share

644
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:08,439
Speaker 1: for the Jets and this stretch of futility again, they've

645
00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:12,240
Speaker 1: missed the playoffs now for fifteen years in a row.

646
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,799
Speaker 1: We are just five years away from a full generation

647
00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,360
Speaker 1: without making the playoffs for the New York Jets, so

648
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:22,120
Speaker 1: this is obviously not a slump. It's not. This is

649
00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:25,239
Speaker 1: a lifestyle brand, is what this is. It's a lifestyle

650
00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:27,959
Speaker 1: brand by the Jets here. And I love that Breeze Hall,

651
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:32,240
Speaker 1: who wanted to be traded, who did everything he thought

652
00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:35,440
Speaker 1: he could possibly do to be traded. I love the

653
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 1: fact that Breecee Hall's out here talking like a philosopher

654
00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:42,120
Speaker 1: on the Staten Island ferryes saying it weighs on you.

655
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:48,440
Speaker 1: Thank you, captain obvious, no kidding, my friend. The franchise,

656
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:54,520
Speaker 1: they have more baggage than the Guardia over the Christmas holidays.

657
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:58,080
Speaker 1: Got and my advice, lean into it. If I'm the Jets,

658
00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:02,319
Speaker 1: I lean into this. I do. Don't run from it.

659
00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:06,759
Speaker 1: Do not run from it. Embrace the annual misery tour.

660
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 1: That's my advice to the Jets. Make this a right

661
00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:13,040
Speaker 1: of passage. Make it a right of passion. It's kind

662
00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:16,279
Speaker 1: of like in Hinckley, Ohio. Every March they have the

663
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 1: Turkey vultures that return to Hinckley, Ohio and they celebrate.

664
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:23,840
Speaker 1: Most people would say, we don't want to celebrate turkey vultures,

665
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:28,239
Speaker 1: But in Hinckley, Ohio, they celebrate turkey vultures they do.

666
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:32,960
Speaker 1: And so the Jets aren't the birds of prey. They're

667
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:36,920
Speaker 1: not that. They're like the buzzards of the ball, the

668
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 1: buzzards of the ball, circling another lost season, yet again,

669
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:44,600
Speaker 1: waiting for the next carcass, for a quarterback to drop

670
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:46,959
Speaker 1: into their lap. And I did the maul or math

671
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:48,359
Speaker 1: on this because I got a lot of free time

672
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:51,120
Speaker 1: on hands, so I did the mather of math. The

673
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,840
Speaker 1: Jets have had in this fifteen years. They've had six

674
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:58,600
Speaker 1: head coaches, They've had twenty quarterbacks that have started. They've

675
00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:02,120
Speaker 1: had how many top ten picks? Nine top ten picks

676
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:06,000
Speaker 1: in the last fifteen years, not top twenty, top nine

677
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:11,440
Speaker 1: top ten picks. It's musical chairs on the Hindenburg k

678
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:15,680
Speaker 1: boom is what it is. And every year someone new.

679
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:18,319
Speaker 1: This is what I love about Jets. Every year someone

680
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:21,040
Speaker 1: new sits down and says it's gonna be different. I

681
00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 1: know what I'm doing, and those other guys didn't know

682
00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 1: what they were doing, and I know what I'm doing,

683
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:29,279
Speaker 1: and the whole thing explodes yet again. It's the warehouse

684
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:33,239
Speaker 1: of regret FC is what that is there. And the

685
00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 1: Jets business model, which other teams have copied. Here is

686
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:45,240
Speaker 1: the sad model. Suck and draft suck and draft wash rints, repeat,

687
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:50,239
Speaker 1: clog the drain. That's what they do. And so yeah,

688
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:53,640
Speaker 1: I believe the Jets should just copy to the United

689
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:57,520
Speaker 1: States Marines. Embrace the suck. Just embrace the suck. It's

690
00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:03,520
Speaker 1: one thing the franchise if they're actually executing at an

691
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:06,279
Speaker 1: elite level. They're not doing that, so maybe they can

692
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,279
Speaker 1: execute an elite level on the other side.

693
00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:10,680
Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of the Ben Maller

694

695
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 1: It's mallor how about that to the third degree? This

696
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 1: is one gets grailled? All right?

697
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:24,920
Speaker 6: Here, wake go couple of It wasn't long ago that

698
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:28,720
Speaker 6: Mike McDaniel's firing seemed all but inevitable. Now the Dolphins

699
00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:31,080
Speaker 6: have won four straight, there're still didn't playoff contention, and

700
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 6: McDaniel is talking about quote a special connection in the

701
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:39,239
Speaker 6: locker room. Ben, has McDaniel already saved his job?

702
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:42,240
Speaker 1: No, look at the Bills win was I guess legit?

703
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:44,719
Speaker 1: But the Commanders, Saints and Jets are three of the

704
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:48,960
Speaker 1: worst teams. No. No, In fact, it's more complicated now

705
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 1: because the Dolphins aren't terrible, They're not good. They're stuck

706
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:55,080
Speaker 1: in the middle. He's gotta still be on the hot seat. Next.

707
00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:58,080
Speaker 6: GMZ caught up with Calvin Johnson on Sunday, and Megatron

708
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:00,719
Speaker 6: said that Matthew Stafford is already Hall of Famer and

709
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:03,360
Speaker 6: that an MVP award this year would cement it.

710
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 4: Is he right, Ben?

711
00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:07,080
Speaker 1: No, he's never even been an old pro. What are

712
00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:09,719
Speaker 1: you talking about? He's not a Hall of Famer. Now,

713
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:11,279
Speaker 1: we want to see MVP in the Rams win the

714
00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:13,560
Speaker 1: super Bowl? Okay, even though the Super Bowl is a

715
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:16,640
Speaker 1: team accomplishment. Then I will say yes, No, you just

716
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:18,920
Speaker 1: put them a lot of empty stat Stafford next.

717
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:21,600
Speaker 6: Early on in the season, Amika Agbuka seemed to be

718
00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:23,880
Speaker 6: running away with the Offensive Rookie of the Year award. Now,

719
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:27,280
Speaker 6: after fourteen weeks, he's a long shot. Panthers wide receiver

720
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:29,760
Speaker 6: Ted McMillan is the favorite to win, with Jackson Dart

721
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:31,120
Speaker 6: not too far behind. Ben.

722
00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:32,319
Speaker 4: Do you see anyone else having a shot?

723
00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:34,880
Speaker 1: No, this is a terrible year for rookies on offense.

724
00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:37,080
Speaker 1: It's a bag you. The only other name that you'd

725
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:39,399
Speaker 1: throw out there is Tyler Warren, who's a tight end

726
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 1: for the Colts. That's it. And remember this when we

727
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,319
Speaker 1: watch the NFL Draft in April, how I'll horny you

728

Speaker 1: the NFL's rookies. How do we know he passes? I

730
00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:54,880

Speaker 2: That's great?

751
00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:04,319
Speaker 1: I don't that is great. That's not really great. I

752
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:05,359
Speaker 1: would have used the word great.

753
00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:08,839
Speaker 6: This is the Jim Morrison edition of Malerd's Mountain Money.

754
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:10,960
Speaker 6: He would have turned eighty two years old on Monday.

755
00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:11,400
Speaker 1: Would have?

756
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:13,479
Speaker 6: Yes, would have? He was a member of the twenty

757
00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:15,960
Speaker 6: seven club. Mark, you were on first, so you get

758
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:19,000
Speaker 6: to choose your category first. The categories are light my Fire,

759
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:21,600
Speaker 6: break on through, people are Strange?

760
00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:22,920
Speaker 4: Or Alabama Song?

761
00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:23,359
Speaker 6: Mark?

762
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:24,400
Speaker 4: Which category would you like?

763
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:25,040
