1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

2
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:07,440
Speaker 2: How do you know college football's back? Cupcakes?

3
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:11,360
Speaker 3: Baby, that's what we have all over the landscape of

4
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:12,160
Speaker 3: college football.

5
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:13,240
Speaker 2: And what does that mean?

6
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:17,800
Speaker 3: That means that what you see today is not something

7
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:22,439
Speaker 3: you should overreact to. Hear me loudly, Texas football fans.

8
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 3: Arch is no more back today than he was failed

9
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 3: a week ago.

10
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 2: And I'm sorry to be the beacon of bad news.

11
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 3: I'm sorry to come in and just make everything a downer,

12
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 3: But realistically, the only real answer any of us have

13
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:39,640
Speaker 3: on Arch Manning today is still who knows it's fucking

14
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 3: fits on Fox Sports Radio, on Fox Sports Saturday, hanging

15
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 3: out with you, coming to you live from the Fox

16
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 3: Sports Radio studios.

17
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,879
Speaker 2: And look, this is just something I'm gonna be consistent

18
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 2: on it.

19
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,920
Speaker 3: I was consistent coming into the first game for Texas saying, hey,

20
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 3: doesn't it make sense that the first time starter might

21
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 3: actually first time real starter might struggle against a real

22
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 3: college football defense, and there might be a process to

23
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,679
Speaker 3: which we're going to watch Arch Manning get better? And

24
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 3: then what you say, yeah, in the week one, week zero,

25
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 3: if you will, he struggled against Ohio State.

26
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:10,840
Speaker 2: So then all of a sudden.

27
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 3: What did we expect today, Well, we expected that they

28
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 3: would come in and absolutely throttle like this is what happens.

29
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 2: This is what we see all the time in college football.

30
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 3: If you want great matchups week one, that's fine, But

31
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 3: what does it mean you're gonna get week two. It

32
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 3: means you're gonna get hot and garbage. And that's what

33
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,960
Speaker 3: most of the light up is today. It's just a

34
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 3: bunch of trashy football games. In one of those trashy

35
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 3: football games, if we're being honest, is Texas beating San

36
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 3: Jose State thirty eight to seven. Now it's really easy

37
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 3: for us to look at it and say, well, Arch

38
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 3: at two hundred and ninety five yards in that game, Like,

39
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 3: Arch was really good. Arch had a big day. He

40
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 3: had a bunch of touchdown passes. Okay, cool, I don't care.

41
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 3: You shouldn't care. Nobody should care. Like I get it

42
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 3: that we are so consumed with the concept of Arch

43
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 3: being the first overall pick in the draft that nobody

44
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 3: wants to listen to any actual logic. But my god,

45
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 3: he was nineteen to thirty for four touchdowns at a

46
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 3: pick could have been a second pick. Nineteen to thirty

47
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 3: four touchdowns in a pick for two hundred and ninety

48
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 3: five yards, to which I say, I do not care.

49
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 3: He's Buck rising, I'm Jason fitz Buck. I'm just I'm

50
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 3: just telling you. This is the thing.

51
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 2: Like I want Archie to be great. I think he

52
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 2: can be great.

53
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 3: I just want us to wait, I don't know, six

54
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 3: or eight weeks and then decide what we think about

55
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 3: arch I can't stand this teeter totter thing we're doing,

56
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 3: seesaw and.

57
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 2: Back and forth every week, got ars banning.

58
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 1: Oh but it's beautiful. I mean, it's the best, isn't it?

59
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: Like Y's it's the worst parts of sports media, And

60
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:41,679
Speaker 1: you know, honestly, like you hate it for the kid,

61
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:45,360
Speaker 1: right because it's an awful way to exist week to week.

62
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 1: And you you know, your receiver drops a pass early

63
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: in a game against San Jose State, all of a sudden,

64
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: you're going out of the first quarter. What did he

65
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 1: have twenty two yards passing or whatever it was before

66
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,639
Speaker 1: he hit the big completion for the touchdown to get

67
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 1: things going, and then obviously the turnover and momentum started

68
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 1: to shift. But like this is he has he has

69
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,679
Speaker 1: been prepared for this. His entire life fits he and

70
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: maybe there's no way to actually prepare him for this

71
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: because you don't know what it's gonna be like until

72
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 1: you're in the middle of it. And obviously this thing

73
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 1: just started for real. But I it's just it comes

74
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,080
Speaker 1: with the territory, it comes with the last name, and

75
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not like, I don't. I don't begrudge

76
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 1: him or anything like that, and nor do I begrudge

77
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: people who are just like, shut up and let the

78
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,959
Speaker 1: kid do something, because it's a completely understandable situation.

79
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 2: The hardest part for me is that my God, like

80
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 2: I realize, I'm no fun.

81
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 3: I realized this book, like I just speculation doesn't really

82
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 3: do much for me. Sometimes gossip doesn't really do a

83
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 3: lot for me. Like, you know, I'm just not a

84
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 3: real housewives guy. I'm not, and so I know.

85
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 2: I know.

86
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 3: So then I look around at this and I'm like,

87
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 3: all right, y'all, here's the thing. If we just apply

88
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,839
Speaker 3: our logic cap, which is not nearly as much fun

89
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 3: for sports talk radio or life in general, this is

90
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 3: why you know I'm a terrible date, right, Like, if

91
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 3: we just apply our logic cap to this arch isn't

92
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 3: coming out. He's not gonna be the first overall pick.

93
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 3: He's gonna play a couple of years in Texas. Over

94
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 3: the course of that couple of years, he's gonna get

95
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 3: really good and we're gonna see some really good football games.

96
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 3: But to get there, we're gonna have to sit through

97
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 3: some you know, you know what, while he grows into

98
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 3: the quarterback that he's gonna be and eventually he'll go

99
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 3: into the NFL, Well, maybe that continues to develop in

100
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 3: a way that gets everybody to be really happy and

101
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 3: feel like he's the quarterback of the future.

102
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 2: Like none of this is sexy when you say.

103
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 3: It that way, like I'm out here killing dreams for

104
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 3: children all across America. But like' if we're being honest,

105
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 3: like it's that's that's the real take.

106
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 2: The real take is Arch might suck, he might not suck.

107
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 3: Arch isn't coming out right away, and over time we're

108
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 3: gonna find out.

109
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,719
Speaker 1: Why do I just have this image? By the way,

110
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 1: this is a wonderful way to start our first regular

111
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:51,040
Speaker 1: Saturday together with America, with the and with Mary. He's

112
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 1: a terrible date. He's gonna man explain Arch Manning and

113
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 1: the media narratives around arch Manning to you if you

114
00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: go on a date with Jason Fitz. That was my

115
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 1: main take away from your whole spield. That's what I'm saying.

116
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: Throw the flag, Mary.

117
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 2: Now I can't flag. The very concept of man's planning

118
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 2: is so weird to me.

119
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 3: It's like, okay, so I can't tell you anything, then, like,

120
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 3: you're right, I just won't know anything because.

121
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: It's not that you can't tell people anything, it's your tone.

122
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 2: Yeah.

123
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 3: Look, when people used to tell my mom it was

124
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 3: their tone, she would just look at them and say,

125
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,599
Speaker 3: let me speak to you slower, and then she would

126
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 3: spell out the f wort before she said you. So, like,

127
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 3: I'm just I didn't come from a family that really

128
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 3: cares about tone block the tone hears the right tone.

129
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 3: Arch Manning is fine, okay, Like but but this is

130
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 3: just like Saints fans are gonna suck.

131
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 2: All year and they're gonna be like it's gonna be

132
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 2: funny because we're gonna get arched. No, you're not.

133
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 3: He's not coming out all right, Like Arch isn't gonna

134
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 3: come out. So you're not You're gonna suck. You're not

135
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 3: gonna get arch and then you're gonna suck again next

136
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 3: year like and if you're a Texas fan, you're not back.

137
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 3: You're not gonna win the National Championship. Arch is gonna

138
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 3: be good like like this. These are people need real talk,

139
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 3: all right. People need somebody to come in and give

140
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,039
Speaker 3: them some level of explanation to what reality is.

141
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 2: I don't know.

142
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 1: Wow, that's very noble if you take on that. Cause,

143
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: my god, I.

158
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,919
Speaker 3: I see you a closer person on the FaceTime and

159
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 3: you've gotten rid of it. And I just you know what,

160
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 3: I take back everything I said. Whatever you say for

161
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 3: the entire two hours is right, because you finally did.

162
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 2: The right thing.

163
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:55,280
Speaker 3: You got rid of the very mustache that should have

164
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 3: banned you from being within two hundred yards of a school,

165
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,280
Speaker 3: definitely banned you from being in any press box, and

166
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,039
Speaker 3: certainly made your friends uncomfortable, even if they weren't willing

167
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 3: to admit it. So let's pour one out to Bucks

168
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 3: Mustache and accept that the world's a little bit better

169
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,239
Speaker 3: today than it was when he had that weird furry

170
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 3: thing on his upper lift.

171
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 4: Fitz we need to start, I think on Saturdays. We

172
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 4: just need to call you, like, we just need to

173
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 4: call you really early in the morning to ensure that

174
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 4: you don't get enough of it. Like this is insane,

175
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 4: You're in rare form.

176
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: I just I'm regret I'm almost regretting. He's thanking everybody

177
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 1: like he's accepting the Nobel Peace Prize because they stuck

178
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 1: us together for two more hours to bother people on

179
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: a regular basis, for Fitzy to tell people that the

180
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 1: masters are overrated, and all the wonderful things that we've

181
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 1: been hiding in the shadows. This offseason doing before football

182
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 1: season got started. I think it's like it's like it's

183
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 1: it's like a child. I assume I don't have any

184
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 1: or you know, a pet that you just gotta let

185
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 1: you gotta run. You gotta run them around the yard

186
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 1: a couple of times before you can get on with

187
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 1: your day. So that's what we're gonna have to do

188
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: every morning now, Ian to make sure that we can

189
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 1: that we can have civil dialogue around here without him,

190
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 1: without him trying to fight all of America over Arch Manning,

191
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 1: who had a fine day against a subpar team that had.

192
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 2: Auto Diesel College.

193
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 3: He had like National Auto Diesel College was on the

194
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 3: schedule today.

195
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 2: Okay, let's not turn it into something like State.

196
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 1: I mean I almost called them San Diego State.

197
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 3: All right, raise your hand if you really knew that

198
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 3: the San Jose State mascot was the Spartans.

199
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 2: And if you keep your hand up that way, we

200
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 2: all know who the liars in the room are. Like

201
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 2: nobody knew.

202
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 3: They're like they're playing a glorified community college of a

203
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:33,439
Speaker 3: football program.

204
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 2: Let's not turn it into.

205
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: Something That's fine. It gave us a little drama on

206
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 1: the front end. You wanted to talk about it, and

207
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: that's what this is, right, Like the Arch Manning dialogue

208
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: is going to be fascinating to follow all season long

209
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 1: because we know that they are they are I think

210
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 1: this year national championship or bust, right, that was the

211
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: whole dialogue around them. There may not be outright pressure,

212
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: loud pressure around Steve Sarkisian that there would be around

213
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:05,199
Speaker 1: Kirby Smart who has national championships and has high standards,

214
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: or what's happening to Kaitlin de boor right now in

215
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: the middle of Alabama situation.

216
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 3: I just have to interrupt you and tell you, while

217
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 3: I don't care about Arch and cupcakes, there is a

218
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 3: cupcake that's suddenly feasting.

219
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 2: Kate club Nick just threw a pick six.

220
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 3: Troy is up sixteen nothing, pending the extra point seven

221
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,319
Speaker 3: minutes to go in the second quarter. Now there's still

222
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 3: seven minutes going the second quarter. The kick is up

223
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 3: and the cake is no good. See, I shouldn't have

224
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 3: said anything, So sixteen nothing. Troy is up on Clemson

225
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 3: right now. Like I don't know, I'm over here telling

226
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 3: you a cupcake suck. But every year somebody gets bitten

227
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 3: by app State, Like that's the way, Wisconsin's in the

228
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 3: close one with MTSU. Come on, there are some cupcake,

229
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:46,640
Speaker 3: there's some cupcake glory out here.

230
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: Put some respect on Murphy'sboro, Tennessee's own Blue Raiders who

231
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 1: lost to FCS Austin p to start the Derek Mason tenure,

232
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 1: who I know you remember well from our time together

233
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:01,440
Speaker 1: in Nashville, the former Vanderbilt coach. But listen, this is

234
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,439
Speaker 1: why you can't when anybody tries to tell you. And

235
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 1: I know you do this with Caroline Fenton on Yahoo

236
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 1: Sports Daily, and you talk a lot of college football

237
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 1: and you're obviously involved in a lot of the college

238
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 1: football prep around that situation. Don't let anybody tell you

239
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,320
Speaker 1: that there's a bad weekend of college football, because there

240
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 1: is always opportunities. Because it's not the marquee event. That

241
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: next week will be right when we get this thing

242
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: kicked up in earnest, But like there's always some fun upsets.

243
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,959
Speaker 1: And not to pray on Clemson's downfall, but Miami, that

244
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 1: ACC should be pretty wide open. It's vastly more interesting

245
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 1: with Florida State looking like they might be in the

246
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 1: mix and Clemson again talking about expectations they were talked

247
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 1: about as as presumptive favorites for the national championship this year.

248
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 2: This is what's interesting to me.

249
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 3: Troy, by the way, they just flashed through the graphic

250
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,319
Speaker 3: to eight all time against a top ten opponent. Troy

251
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 3: is up sixteen to nothing at Clemson. By the way,

252
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 3: at Clemsons, Troy's as we always expect in these situations.

253
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 2: How far into the game book.

254
00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 3: Do you have to get as a Troy fan before

255
00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 3: you allow yourself to get excited? Like, I don't know,

256
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 3: when you know that ultimately you are playing against absolutely

257
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:08,079
Speaker 3: the big brother.

258
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 2: I don't know.

259
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 3: You know you're up sixteen nothing, You're still puckered up

260
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,559
Speaker 3: if you're a Troy fan in that stadium?

261
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 1: Right, Oh, hell yeah? I mean it's it's basically until

262
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:18,440
Speaker 1: a WHI right, it's the two minute warning in the

263
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 1: fourth quarter, and then you can start to believe, and

264
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 1: then you know. In college football the reason why college

265
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:26,679
Speaker 1: is among many reasons, I think way more fun than

266
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: the NFL, even if the NFL makes more money and

267
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 1: gets more eyeballs that way, but not by much. I

268
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 1: think that there is such fun in college offenses being

269
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:40,440
Speaker 1: able to be down fourteen points in this situation and

270
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,320
Speaker 1: still be able to come back because of the way

271
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,960
Speaker 1: that the offenses are structured and how much different it

272
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 1: is from the pros, and obviously the level of talent

273
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,720
Speaker 1: that you're facing. So yeah, it gives you a little

274
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 1: opportunity for drama, but you don't start to believe until

275
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: you make it deep into the final quarter of that

276
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 1: football game if you're Troy, because at any point we

277
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:00,719
Speaker 1: know that teams can come back the way that the

278
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:05,959
Speaker 1: flips the script flipped on Texas and uh San Jose

279
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:06,680
Speaker 1: State today.

280
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's exactly it.

281
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 3: Like anybody can hold on for a few minutes, it's

282
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:12,320
Speaker 3: holding on for the entire game.

283
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,559
Speaker 2: It makes everybody nervous. There are some upsets.

284
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 3: We will keep you on alert throughout the course of

285
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 3: the next couple of hours.

286
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 2: If you just tuned in.

287
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,360

Speaker 3: come hell or high water, somehow, some way, They've decided

290
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 3: to let us do this week from six to eight pm.

291
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,000

301
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 3: you updated. But in the meantime, here's the real question.

302
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 3: How bad does it have to get for Kansas City

303
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 3: before we can finally admit that maybe it's not okay

304
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 3: for the Chiefs. We'll talk about it next these Buck Rising.

Speaker 3: Speaking of fat people and buck Crack Sweat, we got

325
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 3: a score in the Clemson game Troy. Clemson actually had

326
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 3: settled for a field goal here, so sixteen to three.

327
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 3: We now have a score from Clemson. They have cut

328
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 3: the margin sixteen to three as a margin. There also

329
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 3: other upset alerts. Wisconsin just scored, so they've given themselves

330
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 3: a little bit more space between themselves in MTSU Middle

331
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 3: Tennessee State. We'll keep you updated on the results and

00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 3: good decision. I feel really strong about that Buck Rising.

346
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 1: Wait, what they're gonna put us on YouTube?

347
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 3: Well, I don't think we're gonna get like, I don't

348
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 3: think we rate high enough to get on the YouTube's

349
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 3: you know, like, Plus, you're in a different sit where

350
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 3: are you. You're in Denver right now, right Because for

351
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,080

Speaker 3: be with us every Saturday from whatever city the Titans

353
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 3: are in. So that means we're always going to be

354
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,320
Speaker 3: your Prebender show or your Midbender show.

355
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: Well, it is a Prebender tonight, which is I feel

356
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 1: the most appropriate way to go about the first show. Now,

357
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 1: beyond the first show, I can't promise anything like now

358
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 1: that we've got it to your point, squatter's rights. I mean,

359
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 1: there's no rules at this point, right, especially when I'm

360
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 1: on the road. That's not how we operate roadtrips. But yes,

361
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 1: I'm here to cover week one in the NFL Number

362
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 1: one overall pick cam Ward opening up against the Denver

363
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 1: Broncos defense, a team that led the league in sacks

364
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 1: last year, number one against the run, it should be

365
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 1: a slaughter. We'll see what happens. But to your point

366
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 1: about what we were talking about in the first segment

367
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: before we get into some NFL talk, Fitsie Clemson responding

368
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 1: that way is going to be. It's going to be

369
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 1: what you want to see in these early games, right

370
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 1: You're just looking to see how these quarterbacks get tested,

371
00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 1: how they overcome adversity. Obviously, Clemson falling to LSU in

372
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 1: the first week of the season is going to present

373
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 1: them with some additional adversity where they're already facing a

374
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 1: lot of pressure and almost in the same light that

375
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 1: we've talked about with Arch Manning as opposed to it

376
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: being individual and an individual. This is on I guess Dabbo,

377
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 1: but mostly his team at this point in time, and

378
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to seeing what the results are. Well,

379
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 1: you got a score update in the old Miss Kentucky

380
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 1: game because Lane Kiffin was not having an easy time

381
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 1: with Mark Stoop's defense. Before we talk about what happened

382
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 1: with the travesty in Brazil last night.

383
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's twenty to twenty.

384
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 3: That game is tied, and it should be noted Caroline

385
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 3: Fent you mentioned I work with Caroline every Monday through

386
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 3: Friday on Yaho's Sports Daily.

387
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 2: It should be noted.

388
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 3: She pointed out that these games are wildly close every year,

389
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 3: so I rolled my eyes and said, now almost will

390
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 3: be just fine. It is tied right now, so they're

391
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 3: tied to twenty a pops. So yeah, we'll keep you updated.

392
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 3: We've got close games all over the place. Also, I've

393
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 3: got my eyes on Missouri in Kansas, which right now

394
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 3: is a four point game. Missouri's ahead. So a lot

395
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 3: of action out there that we've got our eyes on.

396
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 3: But last night we had our eyes on Brazil for football.

397
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 3: For some reason, I hate the International series, but I

398
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 3: did enjoy Friday night football. We had the Chargers and

399
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 3: the Chiefs, and Justin Herbert had a game that is

400
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:14,640
Speaker 3: only going to make the legend of Justin Herbert Crow

401
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 3: even more.

402
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 2: We are going to talk all year.

403
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 3: About how it looked, but I do it left me

404
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,159
Speaker 3: with a question book how bad does it have to

405
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:27,160
Speaker 3: get for Kansas City before we actually feel like our

406
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,399
Speaker 3: takes will change on the Chiefs, Because like yesterday morning,

407
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 3: My answer was, the Chiefs are going to the super Bowl,

408
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 3: because they go to the Super Bowl every year. I'm

409
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 3: just not worried about the Chiefs going to the super Bowl.

410
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,679
Speaker 3: It that's a pretty easy one. Doesn't really matter how

411
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,720
Speaker 3: good everybody else is. The Chiefs go to the super Bowl.

412
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,400
Speaker 3: And then last night we saw the offense looked pathetic.

413
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,159
Speaker 3: There was no wide receiver that could really get anything done.

414
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 3: They didn't have a very good running game. In their

415
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 3: defense got just absolutely shell ACKed by Justin Herbert. So

416
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 3: I'm looking around and I'm like, man, this feels daunting.

417
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 3: And one of my buddies said, yep, Chiefs are this

418
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 3: is it. I'm like, nah, Chiefs to go to the

419
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,879
Speaker 3: super Bowl. So I find myself being part of the

420
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 3: problem here. Like I I take any outcome and I'm like,

421
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 3: I'll be fine by the end of the year.

422
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,680
Speaker 1: It's the Chiefs or you're a battered Raiders fan.

423
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,680
Speaker 3: I mean, that's that's there are I don't.

424
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,119
Speaker 1: Know, like hell, I mean, even the Raiders fans do

425
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,119
Speaker 1: a lot of battering. If I remember the old Oakland

426
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:22,440
Speaker 1: Stadium correctly, that in Philadelphia, walking into the stadiums given

427
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 1: that I cover an NFL team. Those are the only

428
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: two places where I felt a little uneasy more working

429
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 1: my way through the parking lot.

430
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,399
Speaker 2: You have not experienced in Vegas. It's much different now.

431
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 2: Champagne and Caviar.

432
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 1: We love, we love. I deserve that kind of an

433
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 1: NFL experience famously. But the situation for the Chiefs is this,

434
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:44,719
Speaker 1: okay until at least for me, and it sounds like

435
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 1: for you, until we see them actually lose the division,

436
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 1: like not even get pushed down to the wire, because

437
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 1: they played a tremendous amount of one score games last

438
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,400
Speaker 1: year and got away with a tremendous amount in these

439
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 1: one score games last year. Now that resulted in a

440
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 1: franchise record win total where they look like they underachieved,

441
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:10,439
Speaker 1: but they still win fifteen damn games. So I'm not

442
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:13,879
Speaker 1: pulling my hair out if I'm a Chiefs fan, I

443
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,920
Speaker 1: understand that. For example, things like Travis Kelcey taking out

444
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,879
Speaker 1: Xavier Worthy on a crossing pattern in the middle of

445
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 1: the in the early portion of the game, not just

446
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 1: for the fantasy football people who were losing their minds

447
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,440
Speaker 1: if you had Worthy and aj Brown for of course,

448
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 1: the way that he didn't really get targeted on Thursday

449
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: Night Football. No, until I see Denver Vegas or the

450
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,719
Speaker 1: Chargers actually win the AFC West will I believe that

451
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: the Chiefs are fraught. And even then I wouldn't want

452
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:44,879
Speaker 1: to play them as a wild card. Are you insane?

453
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's I think that's part of the hard part

454
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 3: of it is that you see, you know, the building blocks,

455
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 3: the building blocks are all there no matter what happens.

456
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 3: To your point, like Kelsey last year, it felt like

457
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 3: was on a pitch count most of the year and

458
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,199
Speaker 3: then in the playoffs suddenly unleashed what was remaining of

459
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,359
Speaker 3: his turbo button. It works just fine. Like that seems

460
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 3: to be part of the approach. And I'm kind of

461
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:05,680
Speaker 3: with you on this, Like, even if it looks ugly,

462
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,920
Speaker 3: even if the one score games normalize and just regress

463
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,639
Speaker 3: back to the means, if this team wins ten games

464
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,159
Speaker 3: and go to the play goes to the playoffs, we're

465
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 3: all gonna be sitting there and saying, Okay, you got

466
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 3: Andy Reid for a playoff game. Like it's just hard

467
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 3: for me. And this is why, again, the fair and

468
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 3: fair and reasonable logical mind that I have right now says,

469
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 3: that's why I don't love early season fantasy football.

470
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:29,640
Speaker 2: It's why I don't bet on the.

471
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,200
Speaker 3: First month of the NFL season, because there is too

472
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:34,120
Speaker 3: much that is being worked out.

473
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:35,960
Speaker 2: Like, do we really believe.

474
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:37,880
Speaker 3: That aj Brown is not gonna get a target until

475
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:39,080
Speaker 3: the fourth quartermost games?

476
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 4: No?

477
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:43,040
Speaker 3: Do I really believe that Patrick Mahomes isn't gonna figure out.

478
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 2: A way to get better productivity?

479
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 4: No?

480
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 2: Do I think that these things happen?

481
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 3: And what was essentially glorified preseason games for both of

482
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 3: these teams, Yes, Like you are going to sit through

483
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,639
Speaker 3: ugly football tomorrow because the Titans are not ready in

484
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,399
Speaker 3: Week one to take on the Broncos defense. And if

485
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,399
Speaker 3: for some reason it all apart, I'm not going to

486
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 3: turn around and say, see, the Titans are going to

487
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 3: the playoffs and the Broncos suck. I'm going to turn

488
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 3: around and say it's Week one. Weird things happen in

489
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,920
Speaker 3: week one. Like that's the real, honest answer. Weird things

490
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:11,680
Speaker 3: happen in week one.

491
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean that's and the NFL is more prone

492
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 1: to that than any other sport, except, as you've pointed

493
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:19,639
Speaker 1: out correctly, not when we get into the postseason, and

494
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 1: really in the super Bowl, the favorite usually ends up

495
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 1: winning or at least participating that way. I am I

496
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 1: am curious to see how they try to manifest a

497
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 1: better deep deep passing game.

498
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:30,200
Speaker 2: Right.

499
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,679
Speaker 1: That was something that they came in talking about a

500
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 1: great deal. It was not something that they were adept

501
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 1: at last year or or they were surviving the way

502
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 1: that they needed to survive, which, to their credit was

503
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 1: good for fifteen regular season wins and another appearance in

504
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. He is having Mahomes is having too

505
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 1: much to try and put on superhero performances. And yes

506
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 1: he is a superhero, like he absolutely is, but to

507
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,720
Speaker 1: ask that of him week after week, year after year

508
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 1: at this point where he has had what is it.

509
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 1: It's something like eleven different left tackles so far in

510
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: his career and they're starting a rookie last night. And

511
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that he won't end up being a

512
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 1: good player in Josh Simmons, but it's just gonna take

513
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,439
Speaker 1: some time. And they have let this roster, they have

514
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,439
Speaker 1: gotten away with it around Mahomes for too long, and

515
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 1: the rest of the league is just going to catch

516
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 1: up eventually, because there are good players everywhere and it

517
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 1: cannot just be asked of one individual. Each and every week,

518
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 1: but I know we have to get updated and everything

519
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:29,919
Speaker 1: else in the world of sports.

520
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, like Litten, I've you made a perfect analogy.

521
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,440
Speaker 3: We'll continue this chiefs conversation on why Mahomes is Superman

522
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,360
Speaker 3: and why that actually applies to right now.

523
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:39,640
Speaker 2: But first, Martin Wis.

524
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 3: Let's get caught up on all of the action as

525
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 3: it happens right now.

526
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:44,640
Speaker 6: Well as it happens right now.

527
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,720
Speaker 8: Ninety seconds left in the first half and Clemson trailing

528
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 8: Troy sixteen to three. This game got through like five

529
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:55,679
Speaker 8: minutes in the first quarter and had a massive weather delay,

530
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,879
Speaker 8: so it was a little disjointed kind of what was

531
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,400
Speaker 8: that the football game on Thursday night?

532
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 6: Troy just got a first down.

533
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,520
Speaker 8: They have the ball and driving down the field again,

534
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:09,160
Speaker 8: just over a minute left in the half.

535
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:10,200
Speaker 6: Here sixteen to three.

536
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 8: Clemson in the lead in the sec right now, Georgia

537
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,880
Speaker 8: with a twenty one to six lead with just under

538
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 8: six minutes left in the third quarter. This game was

539
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,639
Speaker 8: also winning, whether to like Lane Kiffin and Ole Miss

540
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 8: just scored a touchdown to go up seven twenty seven

541
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 8: to twenty seven to twenty As the third quarter winds down,

542
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 8: Kentucky the ball fourth and eight. They're punting now to

543
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:34,120
Speaker 8: old miss Tennessee's and a laugh rover East Tennessee State.

544
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 8: They leave right now by fifty five points. Kansas just

545
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 8: scored a touch. I'm saying sixty five to ten. I

546
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 8: think we could seem to end there, like I think,

547
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:45,640
Speaker 8: do we need more?

548
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 1: They ask if they want to running clock in the

549
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 1: second half of a lot of these Tennessee games, and

550
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:52,920
Speaker 1: a lot of these coaches just they don't want to

551
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:53,640
Speaker 1: go down that way.

552
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:54,119
Speaker 6: Listen.

553
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:55,879
Speaker 8: I mean, I know we got to sell the commercials.

554
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 8: But lord, thirty one to twenty eight. Kansas leads Missouri

555
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 8: back of fourth, gave their nine minutes left in the

556
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:07,359
Speaker 8: fourth quarter. Florida in a tight oney six nine to six.

557
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 8: The lead for the Gators over South Florida eight thirty

558
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:14,440
Speaker 8: seven left in the third quarter, and in the big

559
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 8: ten Ohio State up sixty.

560
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,360
Speaker 6: Three on Grambling Oregon.

561
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,200
Speaker 8: They had the back and forth in the media, Mike

562
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 8: Gundy and Dan Lanning talking about the money.

563
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:29,119
Speaker 6: Well, is sixty nine to three is the score.

564
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 8: I don't know what the nil budget dis bared, he is,

565
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,120
Speaker 8: but sixty nine to.

566
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 6: Three is the score.

567
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:38,679
Speaker 8: Oregon has not had a quarter in which they have

568
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 8: scored less than twenty points. It is now the fourth

569
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 8: quarter with fourteen minutes left, Wisconsint pulling away a bit

570
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 8: from Middle Tennessee twenty one to ten with under three

571
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,879
Speaker 8: minutes left in the third quarter, and Rutgers leads Miami

572
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 8: of Ohio twenty four to ten twelve minutes left in

573
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:55,120
Speaker 8: the third.

574
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,720

586
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 3: you said a second ago that Mahomes is Superman, and

587
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:36,400
Speaker 3: I think that's actually an apropos statement here, because look,

588
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 3: I'm not a big I'm not a big superhero movie.

589
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 2: Guy, that's not like something I go see a lot of.

590
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:45,440
Speaker 3: But I was really intrigued by the most recent trailer

591
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 3: for the most recent Superman movie. So I went, and

592
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,359
Speaker 3: I haven't seen a Superman movie since the first one,

593
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 3: like when I was a little kid. Like, it's just

594
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,639
Speaker 3: not something that's part of my lexicut. So all of

595
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 3: the people on Twitter and ext that we're complaining about

596
00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 3: and just endlessly how the movie was terrible and blah

597
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 3: blah blah, didn't catch any of that. I really enjoyed it.

598
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:03,920
Speaker 3: But the thing that's interesting when you said it's the

599
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,720
Speaker 3: Superman comp I kept thinking about in that movie. Part

600
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 3: of the reason that it was traumatic is you watched

601
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 3: the whole movie. Superman got his ass kicked, like over

602
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 3: and over and over again. He was just being thrown

603
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:16,919
Speaker 3: around everywhere, and then all of a sudden, when he

604
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,119
Speaker 3: needed to be Superman, he was. And at the end,

605
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 3: the good guys win, the bad guys lose, and things

606
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,399
Speaker 3: blow up. That's what makes all of these movies so

607
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 3: much fun, right, Like that's the Kansas City Chiefs. I

608
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 3: really don't care at this point if Superman gets thrown

609
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,679
Speaker 3: around the whole movie I'm not going to bet that

610
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 3: in the end somebody finds his kryptonite. That's I think

611
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 3: it's a perfect sort of statement by you, because I

612
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 3: feel pretty good that this all works out in a

613
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:43,480
Speaker 3: way that he ends up being gloriously happy at the

614
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,879
Speaker 3: end and he still maintains his Superman crown.

615
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 2: Yeah.

616
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 1: I picked Baltimore to go to the Super Bowl this

617
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,639
Speaker 1: year on the AFC side, and I just you know,

618
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:54,760
Speaker 1: I over I mean, I don't think that's in any

619
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,640
Speaker 1: kind of a like a kind of a strong position.

620
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 1: I think I think Jackson's the best quarterback in football,

621
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:06,879
Speaker 1: though for the problems that he poses, and while Mahomes

622
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 1: still has a lot of these different things, I think

623
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:14,119
Speaker 1: that when you look at him, he has limitations in

624
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 1: the same way that every other player has limitations, Like

625
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 1: he is not so far and above beyond and above

626
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 1: the rest of the field. To me, maybe you feel differently.

627
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 1: He has the championships to his credit. He's outlasted the

628
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 1: other three that we usually talk about, and if you

629
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 1: want to consider Hurts, he's gotten one win over Hurts

630
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 1: and now Hurts has a Super Bowl ring himself. But

631
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: people don't typically talk about Jalen Hurts in the category

632
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 1: of Joe Burrow, Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen, and Patrick Mahomes.

633
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:48,640
Speaker 1: I just think that we're seeing that they have as

634
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,520
Speaker 1: a team and as a coaching staff, found ways to

635
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 1: win within the margins, and that has helped him across

636
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,359
Speaker 1: the course of his career, where he also has the

637
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 1: super Bowl or Superhero capa bill here. But I just

638
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 1: think that he's not quite Superman in the way that

639
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 1: I think people want to make him, because there are

640
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 1: other players who are as talented as him, they just

641
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:15,439
Speaker 1: haven't had quite the luck or team surrounding them that

642
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 1: he had early on in his season in his career.

643
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,879
Speaker 1: And that's not to denigrate him at all. Like I

644
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:24,439
Speaker 1: have seen him work magic in playoff games. I was

645
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:28,160
Speaker 1: there in the AFC Championship Game in twenty nineteen watching

646
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 1: the Titans take a ten to nothing lead at Arrowhead

647
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:34,120
Speaker 1: and then to see him skirt away with a shoe

648
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 1: string tackle that Rashaan Evans missed and go into the

649
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 1: half with a touchdown and a lead, and just see

650
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:43,520
Speaker 1: that the tsunami that comes after that. They have done

651
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 1: that too great success, but I do think that everybody

652
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:49,400
Speaker 1: else is catching up to them. And so if the Chargers,

653
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 1: a good football team who we also expect to be contending,

654
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 1: pushed them last night and it still ends in a

655
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 1: one score game, I'm not overwhelmingly concerned about them. They're

656
00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 1: just closer to the pack than I think most people think.

657
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 3: I think I don't think that there's been a huge

658
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 3: delineation over the last few years between where the Chiefs

659
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 3: lie and where the rest of the.

660
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:09,960
Speaker 2: AFC good teams lie.

661
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 3: The thing of it is, to your point you said,

662
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 3: he's made they've made a career out of like winning

663
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 3: in the margins. That's just when you get to the

664
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 3: best of the best in a playoff situation, it's all

665
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 3: about the margins, right, So what happens in the regular

666
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 3: season is fine. Like I don't think if you just

667
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 3: take the body of work of the entirety of the

668
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 3: regular season, the Chiefs haven't been necessarily that much better

669
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 3: than the Bills or the Ravens, if at all, over

670
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 3: the course of the last couple of years. But when

671
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 3: it comes down to needing that weird way to win,

672
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 3: they just they find a way to do it.

673
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 2: Some people say it's luck. I say it's just part

674
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 2: of the identity of who they are.

675
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 3: You're right, Like, if we were sitting here talking about, well,

676
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 3: you know, I want to pick the best throwing quarterback

677
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 3: in the NFL, I would take.

678
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 2: Burrow over Mahomes.

679
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 3: You know, if I want to take the best athlete

680
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:57,160
Speaker 3: a quarterback, I would take Lamar over Mahomes. But also,

681
00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 3: if we were walking in today and we were just

682
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,040
Speaker 3: suddenly in a fantasy draft and your favorite team, you

683
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 3: get the chance two minutes to go, you could pick

684
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 3: any quarterback in the league with two minutes to go

685
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 3: to get you down the field, that pick is clearly Mahomes.

686
00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:15,080
Speaker 3: So that's there's nothing changes that. So knowing that the

687
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,920
Speaker 3: AFC Championship game is likely going to come down to

688
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 3: the last two minutes, I still give the advantage to Mahomes.

689
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 3: Knowing that a divisional playoff game in Buffalo would still

690
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 3: likely come down to the last two minutes, I still

691
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 3: give the advantage.

692
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:29,720
Speaker 2: And part of that is the coaching.

693
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 3: Part of that is the confidence I think that comes

694
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 3: with having done it before. I do believe that there's

695
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 3: a calm that comes from just hey, we've been in

696
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 3: this situation. We know how to manage this situation. We

697
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 3: know how to win in this situation, and I think

698
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,680
Speaker 3: there is something too. You know, the years of just

699
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 3: finding weird ways to lose gets in your mind if

700
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,080
Speaker 3: you're Buffalo, so part of it is just having a

701
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,560
Speaker 3: clear mind in it. But Buck, I think all of

702
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 3: this speaks to the fact that, yeah, the Chargers won

703
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 3: last night. That's a big win for the Chargers. That's

704
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 3: a big win for a team that should be in

705
00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 3: the playoff hunt this year. I just don't think it's

706
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 3: necessarily a significant loss for the Chiefs because I'm not

707
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:04,960
Speaker 3: going to buy that the Chiefs are out of playoff

708
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 3: contention until they have eight or nine losses, like all

709
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 3: the way up until then.

710
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 2: And if they're in the.

711
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:12,800
Speaker 1: Playoffs, I want to see them die before I call

712
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 1: them dead. You know.

713
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:14,920
Speaker 2: It's Michael Myers.

714
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 3: Like, I want to actually see somebody take an acts

715
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 3: in one Michael Myers movie and behead him. Just cut

716
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:22,640
Speaker 3: the head off for everybody to see, and then hold

717
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 3: it up and be like, Hank coming back. Now, I

718
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 3: got his head. And then he put it over in

719
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 3: like an Annabelle sort of like a little like cabinet

720
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 3: on the side, and you displayed You're like, here's Michael

721
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 3: Myers's head until I see the Chiefs just decapitated on

722
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 3: the side wall.

723
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 2: In a trophy room.

724
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 1: I'm not going to metaphor.

725
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 2: Metaphora.

726
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:46,480

730
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 1: holding a headless Patrick mahomes up in their living room

Speaker 1: But I mean, it.

733
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 2: Could have been Andy Reid. It could have been it

734
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:11,320
Speaker 2: could have been any I mean, any of them.

735
00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 1: It could be the chief.

736
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 2: Just off.

737
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,080
Speaker 1: I have I almost went with some dark humor there

738
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 1: about last night's YouTube broadcast with the Instagram or TikTok

739
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:26,360
Speaker 1: influencers displayed all over. Did you see this?

740
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:28,360
Speaker 2: Don't you hate it so much?

741
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 1: Why did?

742
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 2: Okay?

743
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 3: Here's Buck Rising sent a group text out last night saying,

744
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 3: I can't wait to destroy this broadcast.

745
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 2: We'll do that next night.

746
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 3: Like for whatever reason, Buck decided last night that fun

747
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,720
Speaker 3: should not exist in his football. We'll tell you why,

748
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 3: and we'll figure out if he's absolutely lost his mind.

749
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 2: It's the debut of the weekly tradition now known as

Speaker 3: Denver as he prepares to cover the Tennessee Titans. I'm

757
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 3: just sitting down here watching college football on eighty seven

758
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 3: screens right now, realizing how much better life is when

759
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 3: we have football, and has me thinking Buck, because like,

760
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:30,880
Speaker 3: I'll be honest everywhere I go right now.

761
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,360
Speaker 2: I could be on a vacation, it doesn't matter.

762
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 3: I'm gonna have a phone out with football long because

763
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:39,640
Speaker 3: I have waited so long to have actual, meaningful football

764
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 3: games on the TV.

765
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 2: It just feels right. It feels right.

766
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:45,960
Speaker 3: Hearing weird background noise from a game I don't care

767
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:48,440
Speaker 3: about makes me happy on Saturday, Like, I'll be honest.

768
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 2: So I was a little surprised whenever the let's say

769
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 2: hard to please.

770
00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:57,040
Speaker 3: Buck Rising sends out a group text last night and says,

771
00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 3: I can't wait to destroy this broadcast. Asked, what did

772
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 3: you not like about mister Beast being involved with our

773
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,880
Speaker 3: football people being thrown out of Cannon's.

774
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 1: Are you familiar with the comedian Shane Gillis?

775
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:13,799
Speaker 3: Now very yeah. Are you buddies with Shane Gillis? If

776
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:15,359
Speaker 3: you tell me your friends with Shane Gillis, I'm gonna

777
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 3: be so mad right now.

778
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 1: No, but I do think that we have fines to

779
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 1: kind of work through between the two of us, and

780
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:26,000
Speaker 1: and some recent travel and experiences and things like that

781
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,040
Speaker 1: that I'm just too self involved to not share at

782
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:30,920
Speaker 1: some point with the audience. I know, but I have

783
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,000
Speaker 1: been at Taylor Lawan's Beer Olympics with Shang Gillis. But

784
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,800
Speaker 1: that's not the point you. That's probably you're fine.

785
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 4: No.

786
00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 3: I tried to get the invite to Taylor Lawan's Bear

787
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 3: Olympics this year and then found out they weren't having it.

788
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:43,000
Speaker 3: Like I was gonna play the anthem for him this

789
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:44,840
Speaker 3: year and couldn't do it.

790
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 1: This is a good to tell you. Maybe that's just

791
00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:50,120
Speaker 1: something that they told you so you wouldn't show up.

792
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 10: I thought that's that is awkward anyway, has a joke

793
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:01,000
Speaker 10: about how you just get a little more Republican as

794
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:03,279
Speaker 10: you get older and how that impacts your taste on

795
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 10: media and things like that.

796
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 1: And I felt that way watching the YouTube broadcast last night,

797
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:12,359
Speaker 1: because I swear to God fits I am thirty two

798
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:14,480
Speaker 1: years old. I am not an old man. Maybe I

799
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:19,880
Speaker 1: have curmudgeon tendencies just generally, but beyond my age. But

800
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:24,400
Speaker 1: like watching bad Ai Come On Ride the float commercials,

801
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:28,440
Speaker 1: did you see any of this crap? Because it was

802
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 1: put out on their social channels? I know you were

803
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:33,440
Speaker 1: doing you were at a concert last night. Looked like

804
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 1: having a big time.

805
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 2: I'm having a big old time last night.

806
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:39,160
Speaker 3: I recorded it and rewatched it like as they replayed

807
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:42,560
Speaker 3: it on YouTube TV. On YouTube TV played the YouTube broadcast,

808
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 3: so which.

809
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 1: And that's a big part of this because it's me

810
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,280
Speaker 1: let me say the pros before I rip it to shreds.

811
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,880
Speaker 1: It's the most accessible the NFL's ever been. Now it's free,

812
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 1: and it's not on YouTube TV right, It's on YouTube

813
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 1: It was on YouTube live stream last night, and like

814
00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,320
Speaker 1: I had no issue with the delivery of the product.

815
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,319
Speaker 1: The streaming didn't crash like the Mike Tyson Netflix fight.

816
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:05,400
Speaker 1: Like all the different things that the NFL has to

817
00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 1: take into consideration when They're going to have conversations with YouTube,

818
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 1: I'm sure further on, like hey, can we give you

819
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,120
Speaker 1: more games? Can you handle more games so that we

820
00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:17,840
Speaker 1: can get more money for our product from different companies

821
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 1: that way. So from that standpoint, like the delivery of

822
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 1: the football itself, the thing that I care about was fine,

823
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:25,839
Speaker 1: but FITZI like they're doing it on YouTube. They're trying

824
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,360
Speaker 1: to get younger. And I understand that I'm going to

825
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,719
Speaker 1: phase out at some point in my life. But I

826
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 1: don't need the mister beasts pregame and I don't need

827
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:35,680
Speaker 1: you going to destroying on the sideline where I'm having

828
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,400
Speaker 1: to look up at my age, my ancient age of

829
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,840
Speaker 1: thirty two years old. Who the hell I show speed

830
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: is that I can have a YouTube watch along, Like,

831
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:48,040
Speaker 1: I don't want the viral Chargers fan in the middle

832
00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:50,719
Speaker 1: of everything that's going on with the broadcast. I just

833
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 1: want the football and the fact that God lovege Eisen

834
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 1: and Kurt Warner who do a fine job. And Rich

835
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:57,800
Speaker 1: Island was funny last night, even though I know he

836
00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:00,120
Speaker 1: got some names wrong and was getting some heat for

837
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 1: that on social media. Throughout the course of the broadcast,

838
00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:05,479
Speaker 1: it was fine, Like everything was fine, except they kept

839
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:09,279
Speaker 1: referencing the damn content creators. And I know that's kind

840
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,880
Speaker 1: of stupid for me to talk about, seeing as we

841
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:14,800
Speaker 1: are sitting here creating content in real time.

842
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 2: But I don't care.

843
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 1: Like it was a Larry David No I could give

844
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:22,520
Speaker 1: a bleep type of moment watching that last night, and

845
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,160
Speaker 1: it just it infuriated me. And then I felt like

846
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:28,320
Speaker 1: the people that didn't like the Kendrick Lamar halftime show,

847
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:30,680
Speaker 1: and I just wanted to I wanted to weep a

848
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 1: little bit because it's the death of my youth.

849
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:35,760
Speaker 2: I So here's where I am with all of these things.

850
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 3: I really enjoy all broadcasts in general until it's a

851
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 3: team or game I actually give a damn about, Like

852
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:45,879
Speaker 3: that's the most important. Like I would never, ever, ever

853
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 3: in my life watch a Manning cast broadcast of a

854
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,560
Speaker 3: Raiders game because I actually care about.

855
00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:53,799
Speaker 2: The Raiders and that's what I want, Like, I want

856
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:54,080
Speaker 2: to hear.

857
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:55,880
Speaker 3: About my team. I want to see my team. I

858
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 3: want to be like enveloped with the game experience, right

859
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,439
Speaker 3: like so in my mind because I'm not I'm neither

860
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:05,839
Speaker 3: a Chargers nor a Chiefs fan. When I rewatched the broadcast, today,

861
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 3: I was like, ah, that's fine.

862
00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:10,399
Speaker 1: Like you hate them both, you want them both to lose.

863
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:14,279
Speaker 3: I root for them both to loose. My team isn't

864
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,759
Speaker 3: good enough for me to care enough about hating them.

865
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,120
Speaker 3: I think I would hate the Chiefs, the Chargers, and

866
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:22,240
Speaker 3: the Broncos more. If I genuinely believe that the Raiders

867
00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 3: were in like eleven twelve win territory every year, then

868
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:27,440
Speaker 3: I will my hate will be rekindled right now, like

869
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 3: it just feels pointless to hate them because like I mean,

870
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:32,279
Speaker 3: like I'm a I'm a pimple on the ass of

871
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 3: the Kansas City Chiefs at this point, Like that is

872
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:36,880
Speaker 3: that is what my team is. And I acknowledge that.

873
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:42,160
Speaker 3: And unlike most, unlike most Raiders fans or sportsmans in

874
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,840
Speaker 3: general that want to like scream about getting credit for

875
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:46,799
Speaker 3: their team blah blah blah blah blah, I'm like earn it.

876
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:50,120
Speaker 3: Right Like, when the Raiders become an actual peer to

877
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 3: these playoff teams, then I will talk my talk and

878
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 3: I will feel some kind of way about it, But right.

879
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 2: Now, like what am I gonna say?

880
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 7: So?

881
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 3: But that being said, I think the all broadcasts really

882
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:00,839
Speaker 3: have a place at a home they're it's right. They

883
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,319
Speaker 3: serve a particular audience that doesn't care as much about

884
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,960
Speaker 3: the game, and that's like I found myself even watching

885
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,239
Speaker 3: when I was watching Baseball, I found myself in the

886
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:10,400
Speaker 3: World Series talking about some of the things I really liked,

887
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:12,400
Speaker 3: and my buddy that was a diehard Dodgers fan, was like,

888
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:14,920
Speaker 3: how can you like this? This entire broadcast sucks. I

889
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 3: think it's just about where my diehard fandom lies.

890
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 1: No, it's I'm with that, and I understand that not

891
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 1: everything has to be for everybody. And it was hugely distributed,

892
00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:25,400
Speaker 1: so that makes it worth the NFL's while, and it

893
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:28,280
Speaker 1: was seamlessly done. So it's just, you know, I feel

894
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:29,919
Speaker 1: like I'm going to have more of these moments because

895
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 1: people care less about the actual sport and they're just

896
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 1: trying to keep young people's attention instead of dipping their

897
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 1: nose back into their phones and following highlights on Twitter.

898
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 3: Well, at the end of the day, you've got to

899
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,160
Speaker 3: continue to push to be relevant to a new generation.

900
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 3: Otherwise eventually you wake up one day and you are

901
00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:46,839
Speaker 3: baseball and that's not where the NFL is ever going

902
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:50,319
Speaker 3: to allow itself to be. So obviously we weren't the

903
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 3: target audience for it, but I'm glad that they did it.

904
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:55,120
Speaker 3: You know, I like trying more of these things. We'll

905
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 3: see what it means for YouTube moving forward. We'll get

906
00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,840
Speaker 3: you updated on the college football matchup you do not

907
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:00,560
Speaker 3: I want to miss it.

908
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:01,200
Speaker 2: We'll do it next.

909
00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:03,759
Speaker 3: Bucking Fits on Fox Sports Radio, Hanging out with You

910
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 3: on a Fox Sports Saturday.

Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

912
00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been a day full of cupcakes.

913
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:14,319
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna lie about that, and I'm not gonna

914
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:15,720
Speaker 3: try and put lips to gun a pig.

915
00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:17,359
Speaker 2: There's been a lot of weird.

916
00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:19,719
Speaker 3: Football games with a lot of teams that you don't

917
00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:22,520
Speaker 3: even care about. But that's about to change in the

918
00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 3: next thirty minutes because we're getting the matchup of the

919
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 3: night with Michigan taking on Oklahoma for only the second

920
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,640
Speaker 3: time ever and for the first time in the regular season,

921
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,360
Speaker 3: two teams, two brands that matter.

922
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:37,120
Speaker 2: Will we must see TV tonight.

923
00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 3: He's Buck Rising on Jason Fitz's Bucking Fits Hanging out

924
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:41,880
Speaker 3: with You. If you've just tuned in, we will be

925
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 3: with you every single Saturday on Fox Sports Radio from

926
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:49,279
Speaker 3: six to eight pm Eastern somehow, some way, we got

927
00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 3: the keys and we're gonna try and not drive this

928
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:54,439
Speaker 3: thing off the road. And Buck, look, it's been a day.

929
00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:57,600
Speaker 3: It's been a day in college football, right, it's been

930
00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:00,799
Speaker 3: a weird Deatroy right now beating Clemson, as you just heard,

931
00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:03,160
Speaker 3: although Clemson is driving and looks like they could be

932
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:05,960
Speaker 3: on the vergeon of scoring. It's been what cupcakes usually are.

933
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:07,640
Speaker 3: And this happens all the time. Like we see a

934
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:10,200
Speaker 3: cupcake race out to a lead and then we're reminded

935
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,080
Speaker 3: that the bigger, deeper, faster, stronger team usually finds a

936
00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:15,240
Speaker 3: way to come back rail off a bunch of points

937
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 3: and what seems like at one point it's you know, oh,

938
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:19,000
Speaker 3: we're down ten nothing before you know it, final score

939
00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:20,960
Speaker 3: seven hundred and thirty two to ten. Like this is

940
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:25,239
Speaker 3: what happens on college football, particularly this week, because so

941
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 3: many teams schedule cupcakes. But tonight we're a game that

942
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,160
Speaker 3: has a lot of consequence, like Oklahoma Michigan.

943
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:35,200
Speaker 2: Just we're talking about two fan bases that want to

944
00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 2: get excited, and I think that's just a big part

945
00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:37,680
Speaker 2: of it.

946
00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 3: Like you know, this cover in sec football so much

947
00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:43,360
Speaker 3: that sometimes what you want is just you want to

948
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 3: walk into the season feeling like you have a shot

949
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:48,880
Speaker 3: at doing something special, and not every team has that,

950
00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 3: Like Wisconsin doesn't have that, Michigan State doesn't have that.

951
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:55,600
Speaker 3: There are plenty of teams in the SEC that just

952
00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:57,160
Speaker 3: wake up and they're like, Hey, we're gonna go get

953
00:41:57,160 --> 00:41:59,120
Speaker 3: our money and we're gonna get to a bowl game,

954
00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:01,839
Speaker 3: Like Auburn doesn't have a shot at a national championship

955
00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 3: this year. Right, So you just go up and down

956
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:05,319
Speaker 3: the list and say, there's some teams that are just

957
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:08,399
Speaker 3: in a different category. If you are an Oklahoma fan

958
00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:11,880
Speaker 3: or a Michigan fan, tonight is the night that suddenly

959
00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:14,440
Speaker 3: everything changes. If you win this game for either of

960
00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:17,359
Speaker 3: these programs, all of a sudden, your fan base is

961
00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 3: fired up and things that you have a shot at

962
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:21,279
Speaker 3: doing something special, and I think they have the right

963
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,360
Speaker 3: to be fired up. This is a really big moment

964
00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:24,280
Speaker 3: for both of these teams.

965
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:30,360
Speaker 1: Well, and especially because of how and you tell me,

966
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 1: are you in a situation with Michigan coming off of

967
00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:38,440
Speaker 1: all the infractions, all the violations, all the show causes

968
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,840
Speaker 1: and everything that we all knew happen. But now finally,

969
00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:44,080
Speaker 1: a couple of years after the fact, as we've talked

970
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:47,319
Speaker 1: about before, the NCAA finally comes out with some level

971
00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:51,800
Speaker 1: of punishment for them like Michigan, and how they're viewed

972
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:56,320
Speaker 1: this season is fascinating because this true freshman quarterback is special.

973
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,719
Speaker 1: I was out of the country last weekend, so I

974
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,960
Speaker 1: didn't get to see him play live, but having the

975
00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:06,120
Speaker 1: opportunity to watch back some of the throws that he

976
00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:09,480
Speaker 1: was able to make and how routine it looks for

977
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 1: a player who just arrived at this level, and I

978
00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:15,440
Speaker 1: get that he's playing, you know, not the toughest competition

979
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:21,239
Speaker 1: competition in week one, and that in at Oklahoma, in

980
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 1: that stadium, in a night game atmosphere where they are.

981
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:32,360
Speaker 1: They have some level of expectation on Brent Venables in

982
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:36,840
Speaker 1: a program that has been able to really have a

983
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:40,160
Speaker 1: level of dominance prior to arriving in the sec that

984
00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:42,720
Speaker 1: they've become accustomed to. Now they're playing in the biggest

985
00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 1: conference in college football. Now they see what expectations are

986
00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:51,680
Speaker 1: realistic or what they have to strive to to achieve

987
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:54,239
Speaker 1: at the level of the best college football programs in

988
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:56,200
Speaker 1: the country, which of course are in the Southeast. And

989
00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:59,600
Speaker 1: then you have these these situations that arise throughout the

990
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:02,719
Speaker 1: course of it. It's a fascinating storyline game. It's a

991
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:08,000
Speaker 1: fascinating matchup. I don't know what really to expect, just

992
00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:11,359
Speaker 1: kind of understanding or what we understand about these teams

993
00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:13,720
Speaker 1: right now. I know you've talked a great deal about

994
00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:17,080
Speaker 1: the former Washington State quarterback John Mattier, who's going to

995
00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:19,440
Speaker 1: be talked about as long as he continues on this

996
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 1: trajectory as a Heisman Trophy candidate, if not a favorite,

997
00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:25,840
Speaker 1: depending on where you look, it's it's going to be

998
00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:29,920
Speaker 1: a fascinating game. Again, there is no bad weeks, no

999
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:32,560
Speaker 1: bad slates in college football because there's always at least

1000
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:34,120
Speaker 1: one of these games with huge steaks.

1001
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:37,279
Speaker 3: Well, John Matier is somebody you know, this game is

1002
00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:40,760
Speaker 3: about polar opposites and decisions on how to build a program.

1003
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:44,080
Speaker 3: Right because you mentioned Bryce Underwood is the quarterback the

1004
00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 3: phenom from Michigan, and according to some reports, depending on

1005
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:50,120
Speaker 3: who you believe, he's getting anywhere from twelve to fourteen

1006
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:53,799
Speaker 3: million dollars a year to play at Michigan. So you

1007
00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:57,440
Speaker 3: talk about somebody that's coming in with immediate expectations to

1008
00:44:57,600 --> 00:45:00,200
Speaker 3: be great, and there were some questions about hey, you know,

1009
00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:02,839
Speaker 3: would you have even won that? What would the job

1010
00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:04,759
Speaker 3: look like if the money wasn't attached to it. Well,

1011
00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:08,719
Speaker 3: now you've got a freshman and pet I'm keeping them

1012
00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:10,520
Speaker 3: calling him a rookie because he's you know, at this point,

1013
00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:14,000
Speaker 3: he's a grown ass businessman taking on John Mattier, who's

1014
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 3: a Washington State transfer that's played like eighty three hundred

1015
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:18,520
Speaker 3: and twenty two years of college football.

1016
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:20,480
Speaker 2: So this is the great What do you do?

1017
00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:20,680
Speaker 4: Like?

1018
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:23,840
Speaker 3: I have become a fan in the modern landscape of

1019
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:27,480
Speaker 3: college football. I love the concept of going for somebody

1020
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:29,360
Speaker 3: that's seen a lot of football as my quarterback. I

1021
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 3: think for me personally, the best way to get myself

1022
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:35,200
Speaker 3: at contention every year is to build a roster that's very,

1023
00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:38,080
Speaker 3: very good and then pluck every year a quarterback that

1024
00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:40,280
Speaker 3: I can get one or two years out of Max

1025
00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 3: that has already been developed somewhere else, that has seen

1026
00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:44,040
Speaker 3: a lot of college football, that I can come in

1027
00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 3: and not have to spend time trying to figure out

1028
00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:48,000
Speaker 3: how to teach scale like that. That is to me,

1029
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:50,319
Speaker 3: I think the method that works and makes a ton

1030
00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:53,200
Speaker 3: of sense, But it's much like the college basketball equivalent

1031
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:55,440
Speaker 3: of the one and done right, like the college basketball

1032
00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:58,160
Speaker 3: won and done risk is that every year you're rebuilding

1033
00:45:58,239 --> 00:45:59,840
Speaker 3: and this might be the year that you got it.

1034
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:04,960
Speaker 3: So this game is about a freshman taking on Bret Vinnables.

1035
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:08,520
Speaker 3: Who remember Brent Vinables got his job at Oklahoma because

1036
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:11,480
Speaker 3: of his calling card being a great defensive coordinator. So

1037
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:14,719
Speaker 3: now you've got a great defensive mind taking on a

1038
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:17,200
Speaker 3: kid that six months ago was worried about a proposal.

1039
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:19,239
Speaker 3: And then on the other side of it, you've got

1040
00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:21,960
Speaker 3: a quarterback that has seen a lot of college football

1041
00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:25,080
Speaker 3: going after a Michigan defense that looks like it's pretty good.

1042
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:28,320
Speaker 3: So I do think that this is a real statement

1043
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,640
Speaker 3: game about how you build a program like both of

1044
00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:34,839
Speaker 3: these teams, Like, let's not get it twisted. Even if

1045
00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:38,000
Speaker 3: you and I know that this is probably a still

1046
00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:40,920
Speaker 3: part of a rebuild process for Michigan post national championship,

1047
00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:42,520
Speaker 3: even if you and I know that, even if you

1048
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:45,200
Speaker 3: and I know that Oklahoma probably isn't in that same

1049
00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,080
Speaker 3: echelon as teams like Georgia, right, even if you and

1050
00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:50,640
Speaker 3: I know that their fans don't, right, So this is

1051
00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:53,600
Speaker 3: a real moment for each of these teams to sort

1052
00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:57,000
Speaker 3: of cement where they belong in the conversation this year.

1053
00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:00,239
Speaker 1: They might know it, but they don't care because because

1054
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:03,320
Speaker 1: that is the kind of expectation that you should have

1055
00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:08,120
Speaker 1: at championship caliber programs like That's you know, I won't

1056
00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:11,440
Speaker 1: justify every kind of behavior that fans sometimes have, and

1057
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:13,719
Speaker 1: I'm not here to fan explain to anybody about how

1058
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:16,320
Speaker 1: to behave in certain situations. But the thing that I

1059
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:19,279
Speaker 1: do respect most about fan bases like that is, even

1060
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:23,359
Speaker 1: when they are outrageously irrational, they have standards like those

1061
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:25,160
Speaker 1: are the kind of things that you're talking about, and

1062
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:31,600
Speaker 1: I find that so not admirable is the wrong word refreshing,

1063
00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:35,439
Speaker 1: because like FITSI and you probably feel this a little

1064
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:38,320
Speaker 1: bit as a Raiders fan, with how downtrodden your favorite

1065
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:41,920
Speaker 1: franchise has been. I cover an organization in the Tennessee

1066
00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:46,239
Speaker 1: Titans that you know aspires to greater things, and maybe

1067
00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:48,600
Speaker 1: they'll get it right around cam Ward. But I think

1068
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:51,840
Speaker 1: there's always a percentage of any fan base anywhere that

1069
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:55,000
Speaker 1: will defend their programs to the death or their franchises

1070
00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:58,400
Speaker 1: to the death, even when they know or are trying

1071
00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:01,120
Speaker 1: to ignore the fact that they're not really living up

1072
00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:05,279
Speaker 1: to the expectation that you should hold championship caliber programs too,

1073
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:07,640
Speaker 1: And so that's why I like the way that Michigan

1074
00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:12,359
Speaker 1: fans and Oklahoma fans are currently handling this that it's

1075
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,319
Speaker 1: an interesting thing that you bring up though, about how

1076
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:17,960
Speaker 1: this game will at least be a part of the

1077
00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:20,640
Speaker 1: discussion on how to build a program in the modern

1078
00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:24,040
Speaker 1: age of college football, because I just I wonder if

1079
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:27,640
Speaker 1: there's if there is currently in the environment where the

1080
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:30,400
Speaker 1: ground is still moving underneath our feet year over year.

1081
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:34,839
Speaker 1: It feels like if there is any one set way

1082
00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:39,759
Speaker 1: to do this sustainably or if you just have to

1083
00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:43,160
Speaker 1: adapt year over year, because that's the nature of current

1084
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:47,360
Speaker 1: roster building in college football free agency every year with

1085
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:50,360
Speaker 1: the transfer portal, and I know guardrails will start to

1086
00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 1: pop up as we move forward in this thing, but

1087
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:55,200
Speaker 1: I just don't think that we exist in a current

1088
00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:59,919
Speaker 1: time where there is any one set way to build

1089
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:02,800
Speaker 1: the program for a successful college football season.

1090
00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:07,480
Speaker 3: The football gods have decided to stop playing with Clemson.

1091
00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:12,560
Speaker 3: By the way, an interception deep in Troy touchdown Clemson.

1092
00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:14,640
Speaker 3: Now Clemson is about to take the lead. They've tied

1093
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:17,000
Speaker 3: the game sixteen sixteen, penning the extra point. I will say,

1094
00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:20,640
Speaker 3: the interception one of the best I've seen in a

1095
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:23,640
Speaker 3: long time. It actually bounced off of players back, which

1096
00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:26,359
Speaker 3: kept it from touching the ball the ground, and then

1097
00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:28,560
Speaker 3: bounced into the arms of another Clemson defender. So the

1098
00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:31,640
Speaker 3: football gods have decided they no longer like Troy To

1099
00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:34,480
Speaker 3: your point, Buck Rising, Jason Fits hanging out with you,

1100
00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:37,840
Speaker 3: Bucket Fits on Fox Sports Radio, there is an element

1101
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,640
Speaker 3: for me to what you just said that I think

1102
00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:42,960
Speaker 3: we have to remember makes college football for the next

1103
00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:45,800
Speaker 3: several years more difficult than the NFL. Like, if you

1104
00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:48,000
Speaker 3: want to know why, I don't think Bill Belichick is

1105
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:50,320
Speaker 3: gonna work out in college football at all. Right, Like

1106
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:52,680
Speaker 3: Bill Belichick is not gonna work out at all because

1107
00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:55,080
Speaker 3: in the NFL he can sign guys to three year

1108
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:56,680
Speaker 3: contracts and then just like.

1109
00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:57,560
Speaker 2: Hey, this is it.

1110
00:49:57,960 --> 00:49:59,480
Speaker 3: You want a job, this is the way it's gonna

1111
00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:03,000
Speaker 3: go at some point. In the NFL, you get to

1112
00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:05,640
Speaker 3: pick the players. At the college level, the players get

1113
00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:07,879
Speaker 3: to pick you, and the fact that you're going back

1114
00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:11,360
Speaker 3: in front of the judge, jury, and executioner every single

1115
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 3: year just makes this so difficult. I don't think wild

1116
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:19,920
Speaker 3: West is enough of a statement to how strange the

1117
00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:22,839
Speaker 3: college football landscape is now because to your point book,

1118
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:29,160
Speaker 3: every single year you are reinventing the entirety. Now, that's

1119
00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:31,799
Speaker 3: tough enough. Like I said, in college basketball, we're used

1120
00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:33,719
Speaker 3: to if you build your team with one and douns

1121
00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:35,360
Speaker 3: and then we start to see it not have success,

1122
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:37,520
Speaker 3: we mock those schools, like, that's what you get for

1123
00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:40,840
Speaker 3: not developing talent. I can't always rely on one and dons.

1124
00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:43,840
Speaker 3: That's what every single college football is doing. A program

1125
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:47,080
Speaker 3: is doing with what eighty ninety guys like, I mean,

1126
00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:49,719
Speaker 3: there are seventy new players on North Carolina, my god, Like,

1127
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:51,640
Speaker 3: there is just no way to keep up with the

1128
00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:53,879
Speaker 3: transfer portal the way it works right now. So every

1129
00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:56,640
Speaker 3: year it's all the more reason. Look, SMU lost today.

1130
00:50:57,000 --> 00:50:59,719
Speaker 3: SMU lost in overtime, which is going to kill their

1131
00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:02,000
Speaker 3: player chances. Likely a team that went to the playoffs

1132
00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 3: last year Boise State lost lais Yeah, and so what

1133
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:09,120
Speaker 3: does that teach us? That reminds us that for everybody, boy,

1134
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:12,520
Speaker 3: enjoy the season you have, take advantage of the season

1135
00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:15,200
Speaker 3: you have. Don't ever presume that you're just going to

1136
00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:16,920
Speaker 3: pick it up next year and be in the same spot.

1137
00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:20,839
Speaker 1: Well, and I again, I run a lot of these

1138
00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:24,000
Speaker 1: things through a local prism FITSI, but there are a

1139
00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:27,399
Speaker 1: lot of big examples of this here in the state

1140
00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:31,799
Speaker 1: of Tennessee. Here recently Nico Yamaliava, the now UCLA quarterback,

1141
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:36,160
Speaker 1: and everything that's unfolded there. Tennessee one of these aforementioned

1142
00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:39,520
Speaker 1: playoff teams from last season with a fan base that

1143
00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:42,720
Speaker 1: has been dormant and thirsty for you know, it feels

1144
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:47,200
Speaker 1: like almost twenty years since they've been spiraling from the

1145
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:50,640
Speaker 1: Lane Kiffin situation. As we watch ole Miss maintain a

1146
00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:54,960
Speaker 1: very narrow seven point lead over Kentucky right now, a

1147
00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 1: game that Olemiss needs to win to make sure that

1148
00:51:57,239 --> 00:52:01,719
Speaker 1: they have playoff chances moving forward. Feels like after a

1149
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:04,200
Speaker 1: playoff appearance, and it was a disheartening one right Ohio

1150
00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:06,600
Speaker 1: State waxed them, But Ohio State would have gotten a

1151
00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:09,279
Speaker 1: lot of teams. I feel like in that situation and

1152
00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:13,520
Speaker 1: route to a national championship a year ago, what Tennessee

1153
00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:16,880
Speaker 1: went through was, oh, the quarterback wants a raise, and

1154
00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:19,239
Speaker 1: we have to decide whether or not to put our

1155
00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:23,239
Speaker 1: foot down or while dealing with two other situations. One

1156
00:52:23,360 --> 00:52:26,200
Speaker 1: another player named bou Carter who was who was a

1157
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:29,520
Speaker 1: five star recruit who was being well compensated but also

1158
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:32,640
Speaker 1: wanted more money, Mike Matthews, a stud wide receiver who

1159
00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:37,080
Speaker 1: is considering the transfer portal prior to the offseason program beginning,

1160
00:52:37,120 --> 00:52:39,400
Speaker 1: and they were able to keep like you're having to

1161
00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:42,800
Speaker 1: deal with these situations every year on a daily basis,

1162
00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:45,080
Speaker 1: a daily basis, and so all of a sudden you

1163
00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:46,719
Speaker 1: have the rug pulled out from under you. And in

1164
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:49,680
Speaker 1: the case of Tennessee, not just because they slaughtered Eastern

1165
00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:54,040
Speaker 1: or East Tennessee State today, but Joey Aguilar against Syracuse

1166
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:57,880
Speaker 1: looks like a better collegiate fit for Josh Heipel's offense

1167
00:52:57,920 --> 00:53:00,720
Speaker 1: than Niko Yamalaiava, who goes to a t arrible situation

1168
00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:04,319
Speaker 1: in UCLA, who gets waxed last week by Utah, who

1169
00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:06,600
Speaker 1: is playing in a half empty stadium instead of the

1170
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:09,680
Speaker 1: biggest conference and one of the most raucous and important

1171
00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:12,360
Speaker 1: environments in college football, Like there are going to be

1172
00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:16,640
Speaker 1: examples of how to do this and learned lessons. Unfortunately

1173
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:19,480
Speaker 1: along the way for a lot of kids involved with this,

1174
00:53:19,600 --> 00:53:22,440
Speaker 1: even though they are eighteen and technically adults and responsible

1175
00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:25,640
Speaker 1: for their own decisions, it's messy. It has never been

1176
00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:29,040
Speaker 1: harder to last in the collegiate game as a coach

1177
00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:32,319
Speaker 1: or frankly a player as it is right now, even

1178
00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:34,239
Speaker 1: though there's a lot more money than there's ever been

1179
00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:36,719
Speaker 1: on the other side, for the for the labor.

1180
00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:39,960
Speaker 3: Here and all that microwaving of what we want from

1181
00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:44,080
Speaker 3: success also leads to microwaving of development, which is why, again,

1182
00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:45,640
Speaker 3: to go back to the game we're gonna see in

1183
00:53:45,719 --> 00:53:46,760
Speaker 3: just a few minutes tonight.

1184
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:47,759
Speaker 2: You know, if we're in a.

1185
00:53:47,800 --> 00:53:50,719
Speaker 3: Situation where Bryce Underwood struggles a little bit, it's not

1186
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:53,560
Speaker 3: gonna be well, you know what, true freshman only a

1187
00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:56,640
Speaker 3: second game taking on a great defensive coordinator. No, it's

1188
00:53:56,680 --> 00:53:58,400
Speaker 3: not gonna be any of that's gonna He's gonna have

1189
00:53:58,480 --> 00:54:01,640
Speaker 3: to be better. Like it's it's a wild college football

1190
00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:04,440
Speaker 3: world that we live in. Speaking of wild, one of

1191
00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:06,800
Speaker 3: the wildest things we've seen in the NFL in a

1192
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:09,960
Speaker 3: long time has already taken place in the opening weekend.

1193
00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:12,319
Speaker 2: We'll break down the aftermath of it next.

1194

1207
00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:50,439
Speaker 3: Buck, I've moved on from grapes, although grapes are still

1208
00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:52,480
Speaker 3: a huge part of my frozen grapes are still a

1209
00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:55,160
Speaker 3: huge part of my life. I have really become part

1210
00:54:55,320 --> 00:55:01,799
Speaker 3: of the nation of honeydew supporters. Honeydew. Honeydew is an

1211
00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:04,800
Speaker 3: elite melon. It does what every other melon wishes it

1212
00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:08,680
Speaker 3: could do. Cantilope is trash, watermelon's overrated. Honeydew is an

1213
00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:11,640
Speaker 3: abst perfection. And then, like I'm gonna be honest, like

1214
00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:14,279
Speaker 3: if for years, if I got a like some sort

1215
00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:15,719
Speaker 3: of a fruit salad and there was honeydew in it,

1216
00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:18,040
Speaker 3: I always took the honeydew pieces and kept them for myself.

1217
00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:19,840
Speaker 2: Like nobody else loves the honeydew.

1218
00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:23,040
Speaker 3: But I'm telling you, especially boy, like after this show

1219
00:55:23,200 --> 00:55:26,719
Speaker 3: and when you know, I'm sitting back with my pen

1220
00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:29,319
Speaker 3: and multiple ledibles into the night, like I don't need

1221
00:55:29,360 --> 00:55:30,839
Speaker 3: ice cream, I don't need I don't need.

1222
00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:31,040
Speaker 1: Any of that.

1223
00:55:31,239 --> 00:55:34,080
Speaker 3: Just give me a massive by the other night, you know,

1224
00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:36,200
Speaker 3: because this is me, Like, I get the honeydew, and

1225
00:55:36,239 --> 00:55:37,520
Speaker 3: the first thing I do when I get home from

1226
00:55:37,560 --> 00:55:39,560
Speaker 3: the grocery store with all of my vegetables and fruits

1227
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:41,359
Speaker 3: is I clean them and cut them and I put

1228
00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:43,600
Speaker 3: them in storage containers so that I'm more likely to

1229
00:55:43,719 --> 00:55:43,960
Speaker 3: use them.

1230
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:46,000
Speaker 2: So I dice the onion in the pepper. The day

1231
00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:49,440
Speaker 2: that I get it right, I diced the I cut.

1232
00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:53,520
Speaker 3: Up the honeydew into pieces, manageable pieces, into a massive container.

1233
00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:55,560
Speaker 3: I woke up the next day and I realized I'd

1234
00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:58,520
Speaker 3: eat the entire honeydew like I ate an entire honeydew

1235
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:00,759
Speaker 3: when I was a little stone. So I'm just saying, like,

1236
00:56:00,840 --> 00:56:01,440
Speaker 3: honeydew is.

1237
00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:01,759
Speaker 1: It to like?

1238
00:56:01,920 --> 00:56:04,680
Speaker 4: Is it frozen honeydew or just just straight honeydew.

1239
00:56:04,760 --> 00:56:06,880
Speaker 3: I haven't thought about freezing it until you just said that.

1240
00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:08,840
Speaker 3: And now I think I think that might be what

1241
00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:09,080
Speaker 3: I do.

1242
00:56:09,120 --> 00:56:11,160
Speaker 2: We'll just see. We were on the topic of frozen grapes.

1243
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:13,200
Speaker 2: That's why I was wondering, Well, frozen grapes are better

1244
00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:15,360
Speaker 2: than regular grapes. It's a texture thing, and that's like

1245
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:17,920
Speaker 2: a known thing frozen grapes. I don't know about frozen melon.

1246
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:18,960
Speaker 2: But let me know how that is.

1247
00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:22,680
Speaker 3: But honeydew itself like not like, by the way, use

1248
00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:24,800
Speaker 3: its proper name. Don't just call it a melon. Okay,

1249
00:56:24,920 --> 00:56:27,800
Speaker 3: that's like that's like call it a supermodel, just you know,

1250
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:30,440
Speaker 3: a girl. Like no, no, I mean, a melony's a

1251
00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:32,840
Speaker 3: my mistake, right, my mistake. A melon is elite. And

1252
00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:36,480
Speaker 3: like it's the just flat out juiciness of that melon

1253
00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:39,280
Speaker 3: that is just oh, like it's just a little explosive.

1254
00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:41,879
Speaker 1: Why do you have to dietary habits of a five

1255
00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:42,319
Speaker 1: year old?

1256
00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:42,719
Speaker 3: You are?

1257
00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:45,600
Speaker 1: You are? The only thing that you're lacking is a

1258
00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:49,920
Speaker 1: uh some kind of parental figure in your life, chopping

1259
00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:52,279
Speaker 1: your fruit up for you, putting it in a bowl,

1260
00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:55,439
Speaker 1: letting you have your literal gummies, and sitting in front

1261
00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:56,239
Speaker 1: of the television.

1262
00:56:57,480 --> 00:56:59,360
Speaker 2: It's not a bad life. Like there we go.

1263
00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:02,920
Speaker 1: It's just fine. I mean, you know, I'm shocked to

1264
00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:05,080
Speaker 1: see you still living this way in your forties.

1265
00:57:05,640 --> 00:57:07,799
Speaker 3: Well that's why I look good though, Like honey duders

1266
00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:09,560
Speaker 3: are good. That honey canon dude is good for you, buddy.

1267
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:11,239
Speaker 3: Like I'm on here, eating healthy stuff could have been

1268
00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:12,759
Speaker 3: a box of Mike and Ikes. That's what it would

1269
00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:13,480
Speaker 3: have been in my twenties.

1270
00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:15,480
Speaker 1: Now it's are disgusting.

1271
00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:17,120
Speaker 2: Okay, Mike and I are elite.

1272
00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:23,120
Speaker 1: Mike and I you who's who's off? Who's muttering off

1273
00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:25,840
Speaker 1: microphone about whatever? That opinion just was that.

1274
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:27,560
Speaker 6: That's not off, that's on the fire.

1275
00:57:28,560 --> 00:57:30,600
Speaker 2: I don't even like candy, but there.

1276
00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:35,840
Speaker 1: Fire I strong disagree. I I just don't think that

1277
00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:39,680
Speaker 1: there's anything anyway, there's there's too many, there's too many

1278
00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:42,560
Speaker 1: criticisms that I have of you for us that you're

1279
00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:46,280
Speaker 1: trying to throw. You're trying to throw fireworks to distract

1280
00:57:46,320 --> 00:57:47,760
Speaker 1: from the fact that you don't want to talk about

1281
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:48,600
Speaker 1: spitgate anymore.

1282
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:51,640
Speaker 3: No here, here's here's what. You know what really just

1283
00:57:52,680 --> 00:57:55,920
Speaker 3: yanks my chain about Spitgate. You know what absolutely just

1284
00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:58,600
Speaker 3: is the swift kick in the no no places about

1285
00:57:58,640 --> 00:58:01,520
Speaker 3: spigate that I just I hate. You know what really

1286
00:58:01,800 --> 00:58:05,840
Speaker 3: just makes me despise pickgate. It's not even the action

1287
00:58:06,040 --> 00:58:08,120
Speaker 3: of Jaalen Carter spitting on somebody. I'm gona be honest

1288
00:58:08,120 --> 00:58:10,520
Speaker 3: with you, buck, Like in my twenties, I was on

1289
00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:12,920
Speaker 3: Lower Broad in Nashville one night. Car came up and

1290
00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:15,680
Speaker 3: UH said some things I didn't like. I chased the

1291
00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:18,440
Speaker 3: car down. I rolled down his window said what are

1292
00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:20,360
Speaker 3: you gonna do about it? In my twenties, I went

1293
00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:25,440
Speaker 3: spit right in the dude's face. Four guys came just

1294
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:27,880
Speaker 3: flying out of that car. I am so thankful that

1295
00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:29,840
Speaker 3: there was just a mountain of police that happened to

1296
00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:32,360
Speaker 3: be on the corner. Because I was young and drunk

1297
00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:34,600
Speaker 3: and like aggressive like that. That was an old version

1298
00:58:34,640 --> 00:58:36,600
Speaker 3: of me. Like I've grown up from it. I look

1299
00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:38,560
Speaker 3: at it and I think it's a disgusting thing to do,

1300
00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:39,560
Speaker 3: and you shouldn't have done it.

1301
00:58:39,840 --> 00:58:42,400
Speaker 2: But you know what else just ticks me off in

1302
00:58:42,480 --> 00:58:44,560
Speaker 2: real time though it did. Man, I'm gonna tell you

1303
00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:47,320
Speaker 2: something like just spitting in some of his faces. There's

1304
00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:49,360
Speaker 2: it's a rush. It's a rush, all right.

1305
00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:53,040
Speaker 1: See. I am so anti sportsmanship. I am the wrong

1306
00:58:53,120 --> 00:58:55,440
Speaker 1: person to have this conversation with because like, but not

1307
00:58:56,360 --> 00:58:57,040
Speaker 1: what bothers me.

1308
00:58:57,200 --> 00:59:00,000
Speaker 2: Isn't even the sportsmanship. It's the fans to turn around

1309
00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:04,360
Speaker 2: and say, well, Dak spit first. I don't When did

1310
00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:06,000
Speaker 2: we become he did it first?

1311
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:09,120
Speaker 3: Mom? Like, if you if you would have been like,

1312
00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:10,920
Speaker 3: look at at least my mom would have popped me

1313
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:12,560
Speaker 3: on the butt the minute I came, like, why did

1314
00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:12,920
Speaker 3: you do that?

1315
00:59:13,040 --> 00:59:15,880
Speaker 2: Well, he did it first. That's just you are begging

1316
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:17,480
Speaker 2: to get beat in my house.

1317
00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:19,280
Speaker 3: If I say that as a kid, you are begging

1318
00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:21,840
Speaker 3: when did we become a society full of eight year

1319
00:59:21,880 --> 00:59:24,280
Speaker 3: old whiny children that think that they can act like

1320
00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:25,120
Speaker 3: their infants?

1321
00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:28,280
Speaker 2: Like this whole argument, well he did it first, Like,

1322
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:31,280
Speaker 2: it doesn't excuse anything. It doesn't. It just doesn't.

1323
00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:33,360
Speaker 3: It's no different than for me as a Raiders fan

1324
00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:36,200
Speaker 3: when people sit here and say, with John Gruden's emails.

1325
00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:37,840
Speaker 2: Being leaked, they're like, yeah, well who else should have

1326
00:59:37,880 --> 00:59:40,640
Speaker 2: had their emails leaked? I don't care. It doesn't change

1327
00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:44,240
Speaker 2: what Gruden said in the like, deplorable is deplorable.

1328
00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:46,600
Speaker 3: If Jalen Carter spit on somebody because he was spit

1329
00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:48,280
Speaker 3: on first, it doesn't change the fact that he spit

1330
00:59:48,360 --> 00:59:50,640
Speaker 3: on somebody, and he should still be punished for spitting

1331
00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:53,280
Speaker 3: on some I like, this whole concept just blows my mind.

1332
00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:57,160
Speaker 1: Now, normally your comparisons are spot on, which is about

1333
00:59:57,160 --> 01:00:00,720
Speaker 1: the nicest thing that I'll say about you, Nikd. But

1334
01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:03,400
Speaker 1: the Gruden thing is a bad example because I do

1335
01:00:03,560 --> 01:00:05,240
Speaker 1: absolutely want to know who's on the other side of

1336
01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:08,400
Speaker 1: these emails, like it is what was going on with

1337
01:00:08,520 --> 01:00:11,320
Speaker 1: the Washington Commanders franchise at the time, and that it

1338
01:00:11,400 --> 01:00:14,080
Speaker 1: was very conveniently left out on who was on the

1339
01:00:14,120 --> 01:00:16,960
Speaker 1: other I see what you're saying about the egregious nature

1340
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:19,960
Speaker 1: of Gruden, but in that specific case, I do want

1341
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:21,439
Speaker 1: to know what's on the other side of that. Because

1342
01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:23,120
Speaker 1: Gruden just filed a lawsuit over it.

1343
01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:25,000
Speaker 3: I want to know what's on the other side of it.

1344
01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:27,480
Speaker 3: I don't think it changes my opinion of what John

1345
01:00:27,480 --> 01:00:31,600
Speaker 3: Gruden said. Oh sure, I want if Dak Prescott is

1346
01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:35,280
Speaker 3: punished because they find footage of him spitting directly on

1347
01:00:35,400 --> 01:00:37,560
Speaker 3: Jalen Carter, and I think, if I've seen enough of

1348
01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:39,040
Speaker 3: the slow mo videos, it looks like.

1349
01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:41,360
Speaker 2: I can't tell if he spin on. But fine if

1350
01:00:41,400 --> 01:00:41,720
Speaker 2: you didn't.

1351
01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:44,240
Speaker 3: Fine if the league wants to punish Dak Prescott for

1352
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:46,000
Speaker 3: spitting on Jalen Carter.

1353
01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:50,600
Speaker 1: Perfose in front of him in his direction, whole stop.

1354
01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:54,240
Speaker 3: That doesn't change what Jalen Carter did, And that, to

1355
01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:56,360
Speaker 3: me is the biggest part, like the fact that we

1356
01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:59,360
Speaker 3: as a society are so busy trying to defend somebody's

1357
01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:01,600
Speaker 3: actions by turning around and saying, well, he need tea.

1358
01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:03,200
Speaker 2: Like I just want to punch you in the face.

1359
01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:05,640
Speaker 2: If your answer is he did it too, I want

1360
01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:07,520
Speaker 2: to punch you in the face too.

1361
01:01:07,560 --> 01:01:10,040
Speaker 4: It wasn't like that was like a spray, like you know,

1362
01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:12,280
Speaker 4: Carter went right up to him and almost spit down

1363
01:01:12,320 --> 01:01:12,840
Speaker 4: his collar.

1364
01:01:13,400 --> 01:01:16,800
Speaker 2: Well again, as somebody that's done the spinning in this situation, I'm.

1365
01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:19,960
Speaker 3: Telling you you your mind knows your mind your your

1366
01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:22,320
Speaker 3: mind stops and says I'm about to spin on it, man,

1367
01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:24,560
Speaker 3: and I gets just so then yeah, you do your

1368
01:01:25,240 --> 01:01:27,120
Speaker 3: like you're you're going because if you're going for it,

1369
01:01:27,360 --> 01:01:29,760
Speaker 3: if you're at that level. Again, I had a lot

1370
01:01:29,800 --> 01:01:32,040
Speaker 3: of drugs and alcohol in my system that night, and

1371
01:01:32,160 --> 01:01:33,840
Speaker 3: this was also pre anger management.

1372
01:01:33,920 --> 01:01:35,720
Speaker 2: I was a much different person back then.

1373
01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:38,240
Speaker 3: But I will just say, like, you do make this

1374
01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:40,760
Speaker 3: conscious decision, like I'm going for it, Like I mean,

1375
01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:41,560
Speaker 3: of course, it was a look.

1376
01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:42,680
Speaker 2: Jalen knew what he was doing.

1377
01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:45,680
Speaker 1: I just think that the most revelatory part of the

1378
01:01:45,720 --> 01:01:47,840
Speaker 1: segment is that we've discovered that Jason Fitz is the

1379
01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:50,760
Speaker 1: first Hawk to a well.

1380
01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:52,560
Speaker 2: I didn't make any money off of it.

1381
01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:54,760
Speaker 1: That's that's the opportunity by you.

1382
01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:55,600
Speaker 2: That's the real well.

1383
01:01:55,640 --> 01:01:57,600
Speaker 1: Well I had to do it, spit on that thing

1384
01:01:57,760 --> 01:01:58,960
Speaker 1: after the fact, you could have been a.

1385
01:01:58,960 --> 01:02:02,400
Speaker 3: Millionaire when I when I again, I did it in

1386
01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:06,240
Speaker 3: my my early to mit to get him, that dude,

1387
01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:07,040
Speaker 3: and spent.

1388
01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:07,800
Speaker 2: All that night here.

1389
01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:14,880
Speaker 1: She said, you get me. I love broadways so much

1390
01:02:15,520 --> 01:02:15,800
Speaker 1: I am.

1391
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:20,080
Speaker 3: I am so thankful that the social media didn't real

1392
01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:23,440
Speaker 3: I don't remember what year Twitter was invented.

1393
01:02:23,600 --> 01:02:26,040
Speaker 2: But in my early Twitter was not around during this stuff.

1394
01:02:26,440 --> 01:02:29,240
Speaker 3: Thank thank god that Twitter wasn't around during my forays

1395
01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:32,120
Speaker 3: into the Lower Broadway in my early twenties. Martin Wiss,

1396
01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:35,120
Speaker 3: save us from talking about anybody spinning on anybody.

1397
01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:37,520
Speaker 2: Give us actual football. There are scores going on to

1398
01:02:37,520 --> 01:02:37,880
Speaker 2: help us.

1399
01:02:37,920 --> 01:02:41,280
Speaker 8: My friend, Yeah, Buck, I forget the term you used earlier.

1400
01:02:41,360 --> 01:02:43,080
Speaker 8: I think it was an actual term. But you said,

1401
01:02:43,120 --> 01:02:47,400
Speaker 8: you can't worry about these, these these close matchups, these

1402
01:02:47,440 --> 01:02:50,360
Speaker 8: close games until a certain point in the game, like

1403
01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:53,440
Speaker 8: the danger zone or so on, like I forget exactly

1404
01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:53,840
Speaker 8: what it was.

1405
01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:56,520
Speaker 6: But I'm wondering, now are we there yet?

1406
01:02:56,800 --> 01:02:59,680
Speaker 8: Because South Florida has all four thirty left and the

1407
01:02:59,720 --> 01:03:04,120
Speaker 8: fourth quarter, trailing by one point in Florida territory right now,

1408
01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:06,400
Speaker 8: how are we there yet?

1409
01:03:06,760 --> 01:03:10,320
Speaker 1: We're there, We're there, especially with Billy Napier, who's under

1410
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:13,040
Speaker 1: the gun a little bit in with Florida this year,

1411
01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:14,240
Speaker 1: it's that we are there.

1412
01:03:14,520 --> 01:03:17,960
Speaker 8: Florida just got a sacks, all good news for the Gators,

1413
01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:20,640
Speaker 8: but with four minutes left, third and ten right now,

1414
01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:24,000
Speaker 8: sixteen to fifteen, the score thirteen to three team in

1415
01:03:24,040 --> 01:03:26,760
Speaker 8: the nation, kind of on the ropes here. Speaking of

1416
01:03:27,040 --> 01:03:31,000
Speaker 8: on the ropes again this game now, Clemson scored seventeen

1417
01:03:31,080 --> 01:03:33,840
Speaker 8: on answer so far in the second half, but Troy

1418
01:03:34,200 --> 01:03:36,600
Speaker 8: trailing by four to the Clemson Tigers, the eight three

1419
01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:39,240
Speaker 8: team in the nation, twenty to sixteen. They do have

1420
01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:43,120
Speaker 8: the balls third and ten for the Troy Trojans. In

1421
01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:46,400
Speaker 8: college football, Bryce Underwood in Michigan about the face off

1422
01:03:46,440 --> 01:03:49,120
Speaker 8: against John Mattier and Oklahoma.

1423
01:03:48,600 --> 01:03:51,040
Speaker 6: In a game that I cannot wait to watch. I'm

1424
01:03:51,120 --> 01:03:53,640
Speaker 6: so excited to watch Bryce Underwood play in this matchup.

1425
01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:55,600
Speaker 6: That's the only ranked.

1426
01:03:55,440 --> 01:03:58,120
Speaker 8: Matchup of today, and I am a Michigan fan, so

1427
01:03:58,320 --> 01:03:59,280
Speaker 8: that is the reason why.

1428
01:03:59,800 --> 01:04:01,240
Speaker 6: Just to give you guys knowledge, I know.

1429
01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:04,160
Speaker 8: This is your first time, first official show here, so

1430
01:04:04,200 --> 01:04:08,280
Speaker 8: i'ctually my bad welcome to Fox Sports Radio not a

1431
01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:12,480
Speaker 8: minute ago as I just completely hijack your update. But

1432
01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:15,120
Speaker 8: Dune Cookman, right now they are getting the thanks for

1433
01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:17,760
Speaker 8: coming out treatment by Miami fourteen and nothing right now.

1434
01:04:17,840 --> 01:04:20,439
Speaker 8: Carson Beck seven for seven, one hundred and six yards,

1435
01:04:20,480 --> 01:04:23,720
Speaker 8: one touchdown, two forty three left in the first quarter

1436
01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:26,120
Speaker 8: for the fifth ranked team in the nation, South.

1437
01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:27,240
Speaker 6: Carolina in the rain delay.

1438
01:04:27,280 --> 01:04:31,439
Speaker 8: It's been bad weather everywhere and I just this one

1439
01:04:31,840 --> 01:04:35,040
Speaker 8: I'll never get over because Mike Gundhi was talking about

1440
01:04:35,080 --> 01:04:39,720
Speaker 8: the nil money sixty nine to three. How much nil

1441
01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:41,800
Speaker 8: money would Mike Gundy have needed to lose the game

1442
01:04:41,880 --> 01:04:44,640
Speaker 8: by thirty points instead of sixty six points?

1443
01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:47,680
Speaker 6: The questions that we'd love to have answered. And also.

1444
01:04:49,400 --> 01:04:52,000
Speaker 8: Everybody with the fan duel account is furious that Lane

1445
01:04:52,040 --> 01:04:55,280
Speaker 8: Kevin call time out. But thirty to twenty three the

1446
01:04:55,400 --> 01:04:58,800
Speaker 8: final score as the Old Miss Rebels, twenty three team

1447
01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:02,040
Speaker 8: in the nation hold off the Kentucky Wildcats in Lexington.

1448
01:05:02,320 --> 01:05:05,880
Speaker 3: Back to you, guys, we actually have controversy right now.

1449
01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:09,919
Speaker 3: I've turned on that Florida game, and amazingly, it looks

1450
01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:14,000
Speaker 3: like there's just a shot for USF to take the lead.

1451
01:05:14,960 --> 01:05:18,680
Speaker 3: They the field goal was short, and amazingly, it looks

1452
01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:20,640
Speaker 3: like their coach was trying to call time out and

1453
01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:23,200
Speaker 3: clearly did, but the refs didn't see it. So we

1454
01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:25,880
Speaker 3: tried to call time out, did not get the time

1455
01:05:25,920 --> 01:05:28,160
Speaker 3: out called in time, and now all of a sudden,

1456
01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:31,120
Speaker 3: the kicks short and Florida has the ball back.

1457
01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:34,360
Speaker 2: So Florida up by one with two fifty two to go.

1458
01:05:35,280 --> 01:05:37,680
Speaker 3: They're talking about something here, so we'll keep you updated

1459
01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:40,280
Speaker 3: on it, because this is a Florida Gators fans got

1460
01:05:40,440 --> 01:05:42,960
Speaker 3: to be feeling just a little bit puckered up right now.

1461
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:44,960
Speaker 3: This is what you are, right Buck, You've turned over

1462
01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:46,320
Speaker 3: the course of the hour and a half, you've turned

1463
01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:50,640
Speaker 3: me around. It was I came into it saying cupcake

1464
01:05:50,720 --> 01:05:52,720
Speaker 3: day full of junkie matchups, and now we're sitting here

1465
01:05:52,800 --> 01:05:55,320
Speaker 3: watching drama unfold at the end of an SEC matchup,

1466
01:05:55,360 --> 01:05:57,400
Speaker 3: and all of a sudden are an SEC team being

1467
01:05:57,440 --> 01:05:59,120
Speaker 3: impacted and all of a sudden, you've changed my mind.

1468
01:06:00,520 --> 01:06:02,400
Speaker 1: I feel that I do that once a show, and

1469
01:06:02,440 --> 01:06:04,920
Speaker 1: that's because I'm right and you're wrong, or.

1470
01:06:04,920 --> 01:06:07,640
Speaker 3: It's because I'm evolved enough to actually let my mind

1471
01:06:07,760 --> 01:06:09,680
Speaker 3: be changed, as opposed to my most people.

1472
01:06:09,720 --> 01:06:12,240
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm right, Okay, I just I just I want

1473
01:06:12,520 --> 01:06:15,920
Speaker 1: you could stop that sentence after you were right, Okay.

1474
01:06:16,280 --> 01:06:20,800
Speaker 3: Uh. That's the hardest thing anyone that's ever been in

1475
01:06:20,880 --> 01:06:24,120
Speaker 3: a relationship to be like they're right and then just

1476
01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:25,800
Speaker 3: let it go. In the whole time, in your mind,

1477
01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:27,800
Speaker 3: you're thinking of everything else you want to say, but

1478
01:06:27,880 --> 01:06:30,440
Speaker 3: you're just like, you're right or I was wrong, I'm sorry,

1479
01:06:30,680 --> 01:06:33,040
Speaker 3: and then you just stop it there, and even especially

1480
01:06:33,080 --> 01:06:34,800
Speaker 3: when you know you're not sorry, but that's just what

1481
01:06:34,920 --> 01:06:37,560
Speaker 3: you have to say. So then you inevitably there's a

1482
01:06:37,640 --> 01:06:39,440
Speaker 3: follow up question and you're like, I wasn't ready for

1483
01:06:39,520 --> 01:06:40,320
Speaker 3: the follow up question.

1484
01:06:40,440 --> 01:06:42,000
Speaker 2: I'm already apologizing.

1485
01:06:43,560 --> 01:06:46,840
Speaker 1: It seems like we're both some trauma here thing.

1486
01:06:46,960 --> 01:06:47,960
Speaker 2: So he's buck rising up.

1487
01:06:48,040 --> 01:06:51,280
Speaker 3: Jason Fitzit's bucket fits on Fox Sports Radio Hanging out

1499
01:07:18,640 --> 01:07:21,040
Speaker 3: most people are excited for. People will stop, they will

1500
01:07:21,040 --> 01:07:22,840
Speaker 3: show up at bars, They're going to flock to the

1501
01:07:22,880 --> 01:07:26,760
Speaker 3: streets to watch the Titans take on the Procos. There's

1502
01:07:26,800 --> 01:07:29,280
Speaker 3: gonna be a weekly tradition. You covered very nice. I

1503
01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:31,520
Speaker 3: get to make fun of it. How we feel it,

1504
01:07:32,160 --> 01:07:32,760
Speaker 3: How we feeling.

1505
01:07:33,240 --> 01:07:36,919
Speaker 1: Oh, I mean listen, I think the Titans are gonna

1506
01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:40,440
Speaker 1: get slaughtered out here in Denver. I'm here to cover

1507
01:07:40,520 --> 01:07:43,360
Speaker 1: the week one game. For people that don't know, I'm

1508
01:07:43,640 --> 01:07:47,200
Speaker 1: a part of their Titans Radio network broadcast. I do

1509
01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:50,240
Speaker 1: a local showback in Nashville. I'm a beat reporter by

1510
01:07:50,360 --> 01:07:52,840
Speaker 1: trade and just a loud mouth with bad opinions, which

1511
01:07:52,880 --> 01:07:55,080
Speaker 1: is why they've stuck me with Fitzie to help try

1512
01:07:55,120 --> 01:07:56,720
Speaker 1: and keep me in check, though it seems to be

1513
01:07:56,760 --> 01:07:59,760
Speaker 1: the other way around most days. And you know, it's

1514
01:08:01,080 --> 01:08:03,120
Speaker 1: minus eight and a half here in Denver. It's an

1515
01:08:03,160 --> 01:08:06,040
Speaker 1: afternoon kickoff, so the crowd is going to have time

1516
01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:09,479
Speaker 1: to get ramped up. Sean Payton is publicly talking about

1517
01:08:09,560 --> 01:08:13,360
Speaker 1: Super Bowl expectations. The Chiefs lost, so there's blood in

1518
01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:16,799
Speaker 1: the water already with AFC West fans, right the Chargers

1519
01:08:18,200 --> 01:08:21,640
Speaker 1: doing the job in Brazil last night, Denver being a

1520
01:08:21,840 --> 01:08:25,760
Speaker 1: really good football team. Like I know, people have skepticisms

1521
01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:28,560
Speaker 1: about bo Nicks, but I mean FITZI. If I was

1522
01:08:28,600 --> 01:08:31,640
Speaker 1: allowed to bet on professional football, which unfortunately because of

1523
01:08:31,760 --> 01:08:36,720
Speaker 1: my job responsibilities, i am not, I would absolutely take

1524
01:08:36,760 --> 01:08:41,160
Speaker 1: the Broncos to cover any You know how rarely rookie

1525
01:08:41,240 --> 01:08:45,599
Speaker 1: quarterbacks number one overall picks have won their first NFL start,

1526
01:08:45,640 --> 01:08:49,519
Speaker 1: their first regular season start. It's happened once in the

1527
01:08:49,600 --> 01:08:52,479
Speaker 1: last twenty three years. Do you know when that was, No,

1528
01:08:53,200 --> 01:08:55,720
Speaker 1: it was last year. It was Caleb Williams because will

1529
01:08:55,840 --> 01:08:59,160
Speaker 1: Levis pooped himself in Chicago, threw a pick six. The

1530
01:08:59,240 --> 01:09:01,439
Speaker 1: Titans had a punt block. They had a seventeen to

1531
01:09:01,520 --> 01:09:05,200
Speaker 1: nothing lead at the half, and Tennessee, en route to

1532
01:09:05,240 --> 01:09:08,360
Speaker 1: being the worst team in football last year, imploded in

1533
01:09:08,520 --> 01:09:10,920
Speaker 1: ways that you have seen very rarely, So much so

1534
01:09:11,080 --> 01:09:14,120
Speaker 1: that Levis was on the field at Soldier Field Surrender

1535
01:09:14,280 --> 01:09:17,200
Speaker 1: kobring with his knees on the turf and his hands

1536
01:09:17,240 --> 01:09:20,040
Speaker 1: above his head as he watched the Bears defensive back

1537
01:09:20,120 --> 01:09:25,600
Speaker 1: return a score for the game winning touchdown. It was

1538
01:09:26,200 --> 01:09:30,720
Speaker 1: the stuff of nightmares. But that's the only number one

1539
01:09:30,840 --> 01:09:33,639
Speaker 1: pick at quarterback that's won his first start in twenty

1540
01:09:33,800 --> 01:09:37,360
Speaker 1: three years prior to that. It's insane. So kim Ward

1541
01:09:37,400 --> 01:09:40,400
Speaker 1: can end up having a fine NFL career, but he

1542
01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:43,000
Speaker 1: is not. As we talked about earlier with Mahomes losing

1543
01:09:43,080 --> 01:09:47,120
Speaker 1: last night, you cannot have one player solve all of

1544
01:09:47,160 --> 01:09:50,920
Speaker 1: your problems in professional football. This is an organization that

1545
01:09:51,120 --> 01:09:53,240
Speaker 1: was the worst in the league last year. They have

1546
01:09:53,360 --> 01:09:55,640
Speaker 1: a lot of questions to answer, and if they go

1547
01:09:55,760 --> 01:09:59,200
Speaker 1: out there and get slacked or shelled because Vance Joseph

1548
01:09:59,360 --> 01:10:02,880
Speaker 1: sees a rookie quarterback across from him and takes advantage

1549
01:10:02,960 --> 01:10:05,600
Speaker 1: to throw some crazy stuff at him that they're going

1550
01:10:05,680 --> 01:10:07,439
Speaker 1: to do all year long because they've got the league

1551
01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:10,120
Speaker 1: leading sack defense. They were number one against the rush

1552
01:10:10,200 --> 01:10:13,080
Speaker 1: last year in terms of DVA. Patzer Tan is the

1553
01:10:13,160 --> 01:10:15,720
Speaker 1: raiding defensive player of the year. Like it should be

1554
01:10:15,760 --> 01:10:18,560
Speaker 1: an ass kicking if you're Denver. If it's not a

1555
01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:22,440
Speaker 1: double digit win, as a Broncos fan, you're probably disappointed.

1556
01:10:23,080 --> 01:10:26,720
Speaker 3: I think this is one of the reasons that this game,

1557
01:10:26,840 --> 01:10:30,360
Speaker 3: to me, is we're talking about is because it's a

1558
01:10:30,439 --> 01:10:33,040
Speaker 3: reminder that we are quarterback obsessed and everything we do,

1559
01:10:33,600 --> 01:10:35,560
Speaker 3: the success or failure of the Broncos will not be

1560
01:10:35,720 --> 01:10:39,240
Speaker 3: quarterback defined. I mean, Bonnicks can't be terrible, sure, but

1561
01:10:39,320 --> 01:10:41,240
Speaker 3: Bonnicks doesn't have to be a world beater for the

1562
01:10:41,280 --> 01:10:43,280
Speaker 3: Broncos to reach what they're going to reach. And we

1563
01:10:43,400 --> 01:10:47,479
Speaker 3: all want our favorite team to have an amazing quarterback

1564
01:10:47,560 --> 01:10:49,479
Speaker 3: because the concept is that at least puts you in

1565
01:10:49,560 --> 01:10:50,880
Speaker 3: the realm where you have a chance.

1566
01:10:50,960 --> 01:10:52,600
Speaker 2: But you said something earlier that we have to go

1567
01:10:52,720 --> 01:10:52,960
Speaker 2: back to.

1568
01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:56,759
Speaker 3: Like, part of the reason that Mahomes has been Mahomes

1569
01:10:56,920 --> 01:10:59,000
Speaker 3: is because of everything that's been around him in Kansas City,

1570
01:10:59,040 --> 01:11:01,160
Speaker 3: from coaching, to some of the players, to the defense

1571
01:11:01,200 --> 01:11:03,320
Speaker 3: the way it played of late, all of this is

1572
01:11:03,400 --> 01:11:06,240
Speaker 3: like just a reminder that the only real way to

1573
01:11:06,400 --> 01:11:09,360
Speaker 3: truly become a Super Bowl a regular every single year,

1574
01:11:09,439 --> 01:11:12,160
Speaker 3: Like this is the great debate is every fan base

1575
01:11:12,240 --> 01:11:14,479
Speaker 3: goes into Week one, do you want your favorite team

1576
01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:17,080
Speaker 3: to be a playoff team or do you want your

1577
01:11:17,120 --> 01:11:20,639
Speaker 3: favorite team to be good? There's a substantial difference between

1578
01:11:20,680 --> 01:11:24,160
Speaker 3: those two answers because good is it means building blocks.

1579
01:11:24,280 --> 01:11:26,519
Speaker 3: Good means roster getting to the point that it can

1580
01:11:26,640 --> 01:11:28,960
Speaker 3: compete at the highest level. Good means all of the

1581
01:11:29,040 --> 01:11:31,880
Speaker 3: little things that are being taken care of across twenty

1582
01:11:31,960 --> 01:11:35,080
Speaker 3: two players, Like the Broncos were not just a playoff

1583
01:11:35,080 --> 01:11:35,680
Speaker 3: team last year.

1584
01:11:35,800 --> 01:11:37,960
Speaker 2: The Broncos were good and they can build off of that.

1585
01:11:38,120 --> 01:11:41,280
Speaker 3: I've seen two Raiders playoff games in the last what

1586
01:11:41,479 --> 01:11:44,920
Speaker 3: twenty years, and both times they were outliers. Why because

1587
01:11:44,920 --> 01:11:47,479
Speaker 3: the team wasn't good. They just made the playoffs set

1588
01:11:47,520 --> 01:11:49,720
Speaker 3: here and you knew that they were surviving. And that's fun,

1589
01:11:50,040 --> 01:11:53,240
Speaker 3: it's special, but it's not sustainable. And so like part

1590
01:11:53,320 --> 01:11:55,800
Speaker 3: of this problem for everybody is that we have to

1591
01:11:55,840 --> 01:11:57,599
Speaker 3: answer the question coming into the seasons, do you want

1592
01:11:57,600 --> 01:11:59,400
Speaker 3: your favorite team to be good or to be a

1593
01:11:59,439 --> 01:12:01,080
Speaker 3: playoff team? Because it's a much different thing.

1594
01:12:01,960 --> 01:12:05,120
Speaker 1: No, it's completely fair, and that I think is, you know,

1595
01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:08,120
Speaker 1: the Steelers and the Jets Tomorrow is going to be

1596
01:12:08,160 --> 01:12:10,800
Speaker 1: a fascinating game because the Steelers feel like they've kind

1597
01:12:10,840 --> 01:12:13,599
Speaker 1: of been in that space where they've been a playoff team.

1598
01:12:13,720 --> 01:12:16,720
Speaker 1: But how much do you fear the last couple of

1599
01:12:16,760 --> 01:12:19,320
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers teams to get into the playoffs who end

1600
01:12:19,400 --> 01:12:22,400
Speaker 1: up losing in the wild card weekend because they're just

1601
01:12:22,560 --> 01:12:25,880
Speaker 1: they're outmatched in a couple of different ways, but they

1602
01:12:26,400 --> 01:12:29,320
Speaker 1: win enough games. It's what I think is makes Pittsburgh

1603
01:12:29,360 --> 01:12:33,000
Speaker 1: fans crazy. You talk about having championship standards. Very few

1604
01:12:33,080 --> 01:12:36,479
Speaker 1: fan bases could turn their nose up at the idea

1605
01:12:36,880 --> 01:12:39,840
Speaker 1: of Mike Tomlin continuing to run their organization given how

1606
01:12:39,920 --> 01:12:43,360
Speaker 1: much success he is given that place. But Steelers fans

1607
01:12:43,400 --> 01:12:45,960
Speaker 1: are one of the fan bases that can do that

1608
01:12:46,120 --> 01:12:49,720
Speaker 1: because they do have a long history of success. They're

1609
01:12:49,720 --> 01:12:52,479
Speaker 1: not the Cowboys, right. They don't grift off of Super

1610
01:12:52,520 --> 01:12:55,000
Speaker 1: Bowl wins that they had thirty years ago and hope

1611
01:12:55,040 --> 01:12:57,320
Speaker 1: that everybody continues to pay attention because they make a

1612
01:12:57,360 --> 01:13:00,080
Speaker 1: lot of news. No, they actually won a matter in

1613
01:13:00,120 --> 01:13:02,360
Speaker 1: the landscape of the NFL. If you're that fan base,

1614
01:13:02,400 --> 01:13:04,160
Speaker 1: and I think that's that's a hard thing for a

1615
01:13:04,200 --> 01:13:06,120
Speaker 1: lot of fan bases to grapple with because we just

1616
01:13:06,160 --> 01:13:07,320
Speaker 1: want microwave results.

1617
01:13:08,040 --> 01:13:11,880
Speaker 3: South Florida University of South Florida has the football back.

1618
01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:14,760
Speaker 3: Let's talk about two point fifteen left, down by one,

1619
01:13:14,840 --> 01:13:16,160
Speaker 3: but a lot of field ahead of them.

1620
01:13:16,200 --> 01:13:17,840
Speaker 2: They will. We will keep you updated on that.

1621
01:13:17,960 --> 01:13:20,880
Speaker 3: But coming up next, the single greatest game show in

1622
01:13:20,920 --> 01:13:22,519
Speaker 3: the history of sports talk radio.

1623

Speaker 2: Would you rather comes next? On Bucking Fits.

1624
01:13:27,760 --> 01:13:31,960
Speaker 3: He's Buck Rising, I'm Jason Fitz together like Vultro on

1625
01:13:32,120 --> 01:13:34,280
Speaker 3: or a bad eighties wrestling tag team. I don't know

1626
01:13:34,360 --> 01:13:37,000
Speaker 3: what which were Bucking Fits hanging out with you on

1627
01:13:37,080 --> 01:13:40,160

Speaker 3: ball in Florida territory down by one. We will keep

1631
01:13:52,840 --> 01:13:57,240
Speaker 3: you updated on the drama as it all unfolds, mostly

1632
01:13:57,320 --> 01:14:00,360
Speaker 3: because I just wanted to sing the word drama. But

1633
01:14:00,560 --> 01:14:02,400
Speaker 3: first book, it is time.

1634
01:14:02,720 --> 01:14:05,679
Speaker 1: No, that's not a fun that, it's not a foul,

1635
01:14:05,760 --> 01:14:06,760
Speaker 1: it's a fine, that's a fun.

1636
01:14:07,040 --> 01:14:08,600
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, I get paid to sing. I

1637
01:14:08,600 --> 01:14:09,080
Speaker 2: don't pay.

1638
01:14:10,920 --> 01:14:11,719
Speaker 6: Another fine.

1639
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:12,200
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1640
01:14:12,280 --> 01:14:16,040
Speaker 1: Hell, I'm going troll mode, laundry fest.

1641
01:14:16,479 --> 01:14:20,280
Speaker 3: I am made troll all right, let's uh, let's it's time, book.

1642
01:14:20,320 --> 01:14:21,559
Speaker 3: We've made people wait long enough.

1643
01:14:21,600 --> 01:14:24,400
Speaker 2: They're ready for it. Everybody anticipates it. The world knows

1644
01:14:24,439 --> 01:14:24,720
Speaker 2: about it.

1645
01:14:24,760 --> 01:14:27,120
Speaker 3: It's time for the single greatest game show in the

1646
01:14:27,200 --> 01:14:28,360
Speaker 3: history of sports talk radio.

1647
01:14:28,600 --> 01:14:34,040
Speaker 2: Buck, it is time for Woould you rather?

1648
01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:35,320
Speaker 1: Nailed it?

1649
01:14:35,800 --> 01:14:36,320
Speaker 2: All right?

1650
01:14:36,760 --> 01:14:40,720
Speaker 4: The first official would you Rather? Games with you know

1651
01:14:40,840 --> 01:14:44,639
Speaker 4: bucking fits now in a permanent home on Fox Sports Radio.

1652
01:14:44,720 --> 01:14:44,880
Speaker 3: Here.

1653
01:14:45,040 --> 01:14:47,519
Speaker 4: It's exciting, guys. I mean, it was a tough debut

1654
01:14:47,640 --> 01:14:51,599
Speaker 4: for the the would you rather? And stink there?

1655
01:14:51,840 --> 01:14:53,640
Speaker 2: No, we did intro. I don't even know what to

1656
01:14:53,720 --> 01:14:58,759
Speaker 2: call it. We nailed it. It was perfect. It's sounding enough.

1657
01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:00,959
Speaker 1: What do you give standards?

1658
01:15:01,080 --> 01:15:03,639
Speaker 2: This is not We have heard better from you guys.

1659
01:15:03,640 --> 01:15:05,360
Speaker 2: That's okay though, that's okay though perfect.

1660
01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:09,360
Speaker 1: We do have the wheel right, and wheel are go ahead.

1661
01:15:09,880 --> 01:15:12,120
Speaker 4: We do have the wheel ready with some good would

1662
01:15:12,120 --> 01:15:13,720
Speaker 4: you rather? Question, so we'll go ahead and spin it

1663
01:15:13,800 --> 01:15:21,720
Speaker 4: to help us decide the first question. Now, this is

1664
01:15:21,760 --> 01:15:24,599
Speaker 4: actually fitting because FITZI did just sing in an opera voice,

1665
01:15:24,840 --> 01:15:27,360
Speaker 4: so would you rather only be able to sing your

1666
01:15:27,520 --> 01:15:30,800
Speaker 4: food order in full opera voice, or only be able

1667
01:15:30,840 --> 01:15:32,479
Speaker 4: to whisper it like a movie villain.

1668
01:15:33,439 --> 01:15:35,240
Speaker 2: When you whisper anything, it's creepy.

1669
01:15:35,360 --> 01:15:36,960
Speaker 3: So if I walk up to Buck and I say

1670
01:15:36,960 --> 01:15:38,800
Speaker 3: I'm really god, I'm really glad you got rid of

1671
01:15:38,840 --> 01:15:40,040
Speaker 3: your mustache, that's fine.

1672
01:15:40,280 --> 01:15:41,920
Speaker 2: But if I walk up to Buck and I say.

1673
01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:44,560
Speaker 1: I'm really glad you got ready your mustache.

1674
01:15:44,400 --> 01:15:48,599
Speaker 2: Everybody's uncomfortable. Oh yeah yeah.

1675
01:15:48,840 --> 01:15:51,360
Speaker 3: And frankly, if you really nail it at the restaurant,

1676
01:15:51,400 --> 01:15:52,920
Speaker 3: you're gonna get that free free food.

1677
01:15:53,160 --> 01:15:55,000
Speaker 2: Somebody's gonna give it to you for free. No, I'm

1678
01:15:55,000 --> 01:15:56,880
Speaker 2: not going to sing it now. I only sing for money.

1679
01:15:57,240 --> 01:16:04,840
Speaker 1: Buck, what, Yeah, that's a fine. I can't sing like

1680
01:16:05,320 --> 01:16:07,559
Speaker 1: I would like to be able to sing. I don't

1681
01:16:07,600 --> 01:16:10,120
Speaker 1: want to whisper in people's ear. Although I don't really

1682
01:16:10,280 --> 01:16:13,080
Speaker 1: whisper like I can't. It just sounds like I'm like

1683
01:16:13,280 --> 01:16:15,920
Speaker 1: growling at somebody. If I try to whisper in my voice,

1684
01:16:15,960 --> 01:16:20,360
Speaker 1: it's not really that effective, which is also uncomfy. I

1685
01:16:20,439 --> 01:16:23,760
Speaker 1: think generally, now I will I could attempt to sing

1686
01:16:23,840 --> 01:16:26,240
Speaker 1: in a restaurant. That'd probably be my preferred method. I

1687
01:16:26,320 --> 01:16:27,479
Speaker 1: would not receive applause.

1688
01:16:27,840 --> 01:16:30,639
Speaker 2: We just learned that nobody wants pillow talk with Buck rising.

1689
01:16:30,720 --> 01:16:32,640
Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying, Like, no naughty.

1690
01:16:32,360 --> 01:16:38,880
Speaker 3: Talk from Buck growling. Yeah, well look on his face

1691
01:16:38,920 --> 01:16:40,479
Speaker 3: there after? Ian save us for myself.

1692
01:16:40,640 --> 01:16:42,719
Speaker 1: I know I was ready for it. You got scared.

1693
01:16:43,360 --> 01:16:45,000
Speaker 2: I did. Actually, I want to have a sad shot.

1694
01:16:50,600 --> 01:16:53,840
Speaker 4: Okay, would you rather have a dramatic movie trailer voice

1695
01:16:53,960 --> 01:16:57,519
Speaker 4: narrate your thoughts out loud or cartoon buoying and slide

1696
01:16:57,560 --> 01:16:58,679
Speaker 4: whistle sounds every.

1697
01:16:58,520 --> 01:16:59,080
Speaker 2: Time you move?

1698
01:17:01,320 --> 01:17:03,080
Speaker 1: I want the narration because.

1699
01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:04,360
Speaker 2: Already sounds like that.

1700
01:17:04,920 --> 01:17:07,800
Speaker 1: No, but it's just you're narrating my inner thoughts, right,

1701
01:17:07,880 --> 01:17:08,919
Speaker 1: it's not narrating.

1702
01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:11,320
Speaker 2: Good point.

1703
01:17:11,479 --> 01:17:14,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, So like it's like I would be. I would

1704
01:17:14,360 --> 01:17:18,680
Speaker 1: be perfectly fine with somebody narrating my thoughts for me,

1705
01:17:19,080 --> 01:17:22,479
Speaker 1: because I feel like my facial expressions are effective enough

1706
01:17:22,560 --> 01:17:27,240
Speaker 1: at communicating messages, especially distaste or displeasure. But if I

1707
01:17:27,320 --> 01:17:30,320
Speaker 1: could have somebody else that's not me saying what's in

1708
01:17:30,439 --> 01:17:32,560
Speaker 1: my head that I actually think about people, One, I

1709
01:17:32,560 --> 01:17:35,320
Speaker 1: would not have any friends whatsoever, But two, I think

1710
01:17:35,360 --> 01:17:37,479
Speaker 1: that would be a very effective way of not having

1711
01:17:37,520 --> 01:17:38,680
Speaker 1: to deal with the people that I don't want to

1712
01:17:38,680 --> 01:17:39,719
Speaker 1: deal with, which makes me happy.

1713
01:17:40,240 --> 01:17:41,880
Speaker 3: I just I kind of like the idea of the

1714
01:17:41,960 --> 01:17:43,960
Speaker 3: movie voice narrating it, because then I don't have to

1715
01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:46,080
Speaker 3: tell people I have to tinkle, like they'll just know,

1716
01:17:46,400 --> 01:17:48,360
Speaker 3: like the voice would be. Like in a world we're

1717
01:17:48,479 --> 01:17:50,840
Speaker 3: one man in the back seat needs you to pull

1718
01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:53,120
Speaker 3: over so he can tinkle, like I want this.

1719
01:17:53,240 --> 01:17:55,320
Speaker 2: I think that's cool. He ain't give us another one

1720
01:17:55,320 --> 01:17:55,679
Speaker 2: we got.

1721
01:17:55,640 --> 01:17:59,160
Speaker 1: He's he's tinkling while eating melon melon out of a

1722
01:17:59,600 --> 01:18:01,040
Speaker 1: chopped up melon out of a bowl.

1723
01:18:01,479 --> 01:18:10,880
Speaker 4: Melon tinkle, great band name, Go ahead, melon tinkle, not

1724
01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:12,240
Speaker 4: honeydew tinkle, though.

1725
01:18:14,240 --> 01:18:16,240
Speaker 2: Honeydew tinkle feels a little too soft.

1726
01:18:16,360 --> 01:18:20,120
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, to soft melon tinkle?

1727
01:18:20,720 --> 01:18:24,479
Speaker 4: Would you rather, all right? Would you rather be followed

1728
01:18:24,520 --> 01:18:27,120
Speaker 4: by a faint smell of pickles wherever you go? Or

1729
01:18:27,240 --> 01:18:29,639
Speaker 4: leave a tiny trail of glitter behind every time you walk?

1730
01:18:30,160 --> 01:18:33,280
Speaker 1: Glitter? No, nothing, nothing worse than people that have a sense.

1731
01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:34,799
Speaker 6: Loves these glitter?

1732
01:18:34,880 --> 01:18:35,599
Speaker 2: Would you rather.

1733
01:18:37,640 --> 01:18:41,599
Speaker 4: Sneeze chat chpt loves the glitter? Like like, I don't

1734
01:18:41,600 --> 01:18:43,800
Speaker 4: even have an account, I'm complete, I'm not even logged in,

1735
01:18:43,880 --> 01:18:44,240
Speaker 4: and this is.

1736
01:18:44,320 --> 01:18:50,640
Speaker 3: Just I'll take the glitter. Also, whatever I like the

1737
01:18:50,720 --> 01:18:54,600
Speaker 3: idea glitter. By the way, only seconds remain us f

01:18:54,760 --> 01:18:57,400

Speaker 3: their last time out with three seconds remaining, they will

01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:04,479
Speaker 3: attempt the game winning field goal in a matter of seconds.
