00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 2: Happy Wednesday to you. John. Want to rewind just a

11
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 2: tenC tiny bit to the weekend. I was at the

12
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 2: JJ Watt Charity Classic. Oh yeah, it was awesome. That

13
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 2: thing since he started it in twenty thirteen was awesome.

14
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 2: He did it thirteen fourteen, fifteen there Constellation Field, and

15
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,319
Speaker 2: then he switched it over to Minute may Form them

16
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 2: two three seasons more COVID injuries kind of put that

17
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 2: on pause, and then he went at Arizona. But he

18
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 2: brought it back this year, and thank goodness he did

19
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 2: because it was just like, I mean, just like the

20
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 2: old days, which if you've not been to that event,

21
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:11,320
Speaker 2: get tickets next time it comes around, because I think

22
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 2: it's gonna come around again. I think he's going to

23
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:16,319
Speaker 2: keep doing this. All the former players were there that

24
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 2: he was palace with, not all, but many of them.

25
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 2: Many of the current players were there. Stefan Diggs was there. Landers.

26
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 2: It was awesome, and they're it's fun seeing dudes that

27
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 2: you pigeonholed into. This is what they are, their football

28
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 2: players doing something that they're not softball players. And even

29
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 2: though John the current guys got smoked fourteen, they put

30
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 2: a charity run on the board for him, the one

31
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 2: they didn't score the day yet it was they got destroyed. Yeah,

32
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 2: but even though these the current players got destroyed, they're

33
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 2: still like they did some stuff in the field. Every

34
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 2: once in a while you're like, oh, yeah, those guys

35
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 2: are professional athletes that you like just trying like they

36
00:01:58,160 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 2: could have turned a double play if they had known

37
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 2: to throw to first, but just cover the bag, getting

38
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 2: the fielding things cleanly. Yeah, like that's that's pretty cool,

39
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,399
Speaker 2: you know, And I guess that's the eight year old

40
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 2: baseball coach and me seeing a ball go up in

41
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 2: the air and then just like jack in the box,

42
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:14,919
Speaker 2: out of the glove. Once it gets to the glove

43
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 2: with the eight year olds, didn't happen, I mean back

44
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:17,519
Speaker 2: in the box.

45
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,679
Speaker 3: You know everybody. Yeah, with the NFL, you know this

46
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 3: conversations come up.

47
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 4: Austin Rivers started this and obviously was looking for clicks,

48
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,519
Speaker 4: controlling people, and they could take thirty people out of

49
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 4: the NBA and put him in the NFL.

50
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 2: Like, no, you could maybe a few you maybe there

51
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 2: are some thats.

52
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 4: Right, There are some that have the side, you know,

53
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 4: like look, Julius Pepper's you know, once played college of

54
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 4: basketball and he was like the sixth seventh guy in

55
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 4: that team, not any but he was not an NBA player,

56
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 4: and he was a guy that you know, ends up

57
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 4: obviously being a Hall of Fame player in the NFL.

58
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 4: It's They're just I I always get frustrated with this

59
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 4: conversation because to be a professional athlete in a sport,

60
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 4: you have to be so good at that particular sport

61
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 4: that at some point you have to specialize in it.

62
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 4: And there are some over the years that have shown

63
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 4: the athletic ability to play a couple.

64
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 3: Of sports in professional and professional sports.

65
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 4: And it's incredible to see Dean Sanders play baseball and

66
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 4: football in the same freaking day.

67
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 3: Was was on real Bo Jackson what he was doing

68
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 3: and others.

69
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 4: But baseball is one of those that if you haven't

70
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 4: thrown a baseball, you haven't hit a baseball, you will

71
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,640
Speaker 4: look absolutely foolish when you go out on a field

72
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 4: and try and do it, even if you haven't done

73
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 4: it in a long time. Like I have done it

74
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 4: a long time. It would take a while for it

75
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 4: to come back for me. But I played it. In fact,

76
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 4: you know, almost played in college. But baseball is so specific.

77
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 4: You know, football in some sense, and some people will

78
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 4: say this, but this is this is true in some cases,

79
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 4: like you just take the guy across from you and

80
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 4: you just get in a big sumo fight with him.

81
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 3: You can win that. You know.

82
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 4: Obviously we know it's more technical than that, but sometimes

83
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 4: it comes down to that. Sometimes in football you can

84
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 4: run right by a guy and go catch a pass.

85
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 4: That's just one part of the game. Baseball, like if

86
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 4: you're if you're hitting the ball, like there's you hit

87
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 4: the ball, that's it.

88
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 3: There's no you hit the ball, you feel the ball,

89
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 3: you throw the ball, that's it.

90
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 2: Yeah. So and baseball and softball there's that jiggles things

91
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 2: a little bit.

92
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: Man.

93
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, baseball and softball is definitely different.

94
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 2: Titus Howard was talking about because Titus when he was

95
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 2: in high school was a really good baseball player, lefty pitcher,

96
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:21,719
Speaker 2: and he could hit. And when he got up and

97
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 2: when he was hitting in the home run derby and

98
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 2: when he was hitting at the plate, you could tell

99
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 2: that guy's played before. Yeah, guy's very good. But he

100
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 2: wasn't getting all that, and he was talking about it

101
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 2: on the side. He's like, you gotta He's like, first

102
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,039
Speaker 2: of all, you guys gotta move forward in the box

103
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 2: because the balls, like he had all the technical stuff.

104
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,360
Speaker 2: He's like, I gotta, I gotta get a different bat

105
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,840
Speaker 2: because I can't swing this bap up up. So even

106
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 2: he was adjusting to that, and it's so much so

107
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 2: whereas you got Shane Leckler, who's playing softball the time.

108
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,040
Speaker 2: He's coaching his daughters, who are they're really Yeah, they're

109
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 2: in high school, they're gonna play in college if they

110
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 2: want to. Yeah, And he's just smacking down. I mean,

111
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 2: he he's there.

112
00:04:58,680 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 3: Being Shane Lackler.

113
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 2: He's good at everything. Kate Lechler is good at everything.

114
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 2: He didn't already know that. Shane Leckler when he was

115
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 2: in high school, he was all state as an outside linebacker, quarterback,

116
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 2: and punter on the football team. Yep, I think they

117
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 2: won a state title where they got to the state

118
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 2: title game in basketball. I believe he won or was

119
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 2: in the final round of the state title in golf.

120
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 2: And he was a hell of a baseball player. He

121
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 2: took them deep into the playoffs. I mean, I think

122
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 2: he might have been All state in all four sports.

123
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 3: He was incredible.

124
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 2: He's phenomenally.

125
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 4: He's still incredible. He's still an athlete. You know, he

126
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 4: is texting to the core with all that he can do.

127
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,599
Speaker 4: It's it's pretty incredible. But you're right about the baseball

128
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 4: softball thing. When I was in France, when I was

129
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 4: in college, our Buddy Lands Airline, he said, hey, man,

130
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:48,159
Speaker 4: want't you you want to come play?

131
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:49,920
Speaker 3: Because I would come home for the summers.

132
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 4: I was really the only one for my class that

133
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,239
Speaker 4: would come home from the summers because I was working

134
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 4: at Amacal Pipeline out in Texas City. So I would

135
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 4: drive an hour fifteen minutes there and back every single

136
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 4: day to have this job. I thought it would turn

137
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 4: into an engineering job in Chicago, and it did, and

138
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 4: then it didn't, and now I'm here. But I remember

139
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 4: when he asked me to come play, He's like, you know, softball,

140
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 4: you know, I have fun and playing center field and

141
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:12,479
Speaker 4: all that.

142
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:16,039
Speaker 3: I was like, okay, and I loved it. But man,

143
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 3: I'm telling you, the first two games I didn't touch

144
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 3: a ball. I just I couldn't do it.

145
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 4: It was I was so used to baseball where the

146
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 4: timing had to be there. And then finally I started

147
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 4: getting my timing down and went to you know this,

148
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 4: the slow pitch, like wait for it, and then I

149
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 4: just started hitting the line drives all over the place.

150
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 4: But it took me a good two games kind of

151
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 4: figure it all out. So if you haven't done that

152
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 4: even that before, it's gonna be tough on that slow

153
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,119
Speaker 4: pitch stuff. Man, it's tough. But uh, such a great event.

154
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 4: Thanks to jj H for doing that and what it

155
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 4: brings to the Houston community. And obviously his charity is well,

156
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,840
Speaker 4: what he's been doing for what he's done with his charity,

157
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:52,800

Speaker 2: but you got a mock schedule for the Texans. It's

179
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,000
Speaker 2: An article on Houston Texans dot Com read that you

00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 2: guys talked about it at linked over the last few nights.

00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 2: other person. You guys, Yeah, thank you? Okay, John over

186
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 2: under three and a half primetime games the Texans will

187
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 2: have in twenty twenty four. Primetime includes primetime is not

188
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 2: just at night. Primetime would include Thanksgiving, a Thanksgiving, a Christmas,

189
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 2: a London, just a time when that's the only game

190
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 2: that's on and it's the one you're gonna watch.

191
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 4: In my schedule, I went over. I had four I

192
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,679
Speaker 4: had four night games. Okay, I should you put that

193
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:46,679
Speaker 4: in quotes? I'm doing my air quotes. I had four

194
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 4: night games. I had opener Monday night against the Jets,

195
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 4: I had a Sunday night at Kansas City, at a

196
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 4: Sunday night home against the Bills, and at Monday night

197
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,680
Speaker 4: home against the Lions. So that would be two night

198
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 4: games on the road to two night games at home.

199
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 3: Then I had Thanksgiving as Dallas.

200
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 4: I just felt like that was the best matchup just

201
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 4: looking at the teams that Dallas was playing, Like, man,

202
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 4: what would make a really good Thanksgiving?

203
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:10,959
Speaker 3: This makes a great Thanksgiving.

204
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 4: And then I don't know if it's considered prime time,

205
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 4: but you know the Saturday games in December, it's always

206
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 4: a Saturday games.

207
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 3: They give you the both dates, either this or that.

208
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 2: I think if it's the only game that's on at

209
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 2: that time, I think that's a prime time right.

210
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 4: So I gave them a Saturday game. Okay, so four

211
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,839
Speaker 4: night games Thanksgiving and then that's Saturday. So that's six

212
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 4: that ends up being I guess you're.

213
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 3: Kind of from that.

214
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 2: Ways, who's a Saturday? Would you think it's like.

215
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 4: Minnesota at Minnesota, Thanksgiving at Dallas, and then Saturday, December

216
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 4: twenty eighth at Minnesota. So that was the Minnesota game

217
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 4: is sandwiched in. And this is what was interesting. I

218
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 4: didn't even know this, but as I was going, as

219
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 4: I wrote this and sent it in posted Mark's looking

220
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 4: at it, and he looks at it and goes, WHOA.

221
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 3: The last three games I had were home Indy.

222
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:04,679
Speaker 4: Oh no, no, no, it was at Indy at Minnesota Home, Indianeapolis.

223
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 4: That's the exact order of teams we played in twenty twelve. Yeah, yeah,

224
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 4: And I didn't realize that.

225
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 3: But at twenty twelve we played home home home road.

226
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 3: This one would be road road at home either way.

227
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 4: I didn't even look at the twenty twenty four schedule,

228
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 4: but what I noticed about it was we played the

229
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 4: exact same teams, except for we played Denver instead of

230
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 4: Kansas City. And then you add on Dallas because we

231
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 4: have the seventeenth game, So we're playing the exact teams

232
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:35,199
Speaker 4: we played in twenty two.

233
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 3: I didn't even notice that.

234
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 2: To flop the homes with the roads es NFC North

235
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 2: right right, don't go to Chicago, and you don't go

236
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:43,319
Speaker 2: to they come here.

237
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 3: They come here. So you flip that you're playing the

238
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 3: same team. I'm like wow.

239
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,080
Speaker 4: So then I started looking at the similarities that I

240
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 4: had in the twenty twelve schedule. We had four night games,

241
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 4: we had a Thanksgiving game, yep, and then we had

242
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,559
Speaker 4: the end of the schedule, which was those teams Indye,

243
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:04,319
Speaker 4: Men Soda, Indie to end the schedule, and uh, we

244
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 4: are like there was one other because there's similarity.

245
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 3: I can't think of right now.

246
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 4: But I started looking at twenty twelve and I thought

247
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 4: of my lastis was like, whoa, that's weird. That's strange

248
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 4: because in twenty twelve we had played Chicago.

249
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 3: On Sunday night and Chicago was good. Yeah, played a.

250
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 4: Monday night at New England, which everybody unfortunately remembers for

251
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 4: the wrong reasons.

252
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,560
Speaker 3: Played Sunday night against the Packers.

253
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,440
Speaker 2: Yeah. Here, the first loss of the season. You were

254
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 2: five and zero. Yeah, came in that was and then

255
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 2: you had lost Cushing the week before, and then and

256
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 2: then you had to Jets that. I still think losing

257
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,080
Speaker 2: Cushing like that and having to trade away to Miko

258
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 2: in the off season significantly depress.

259
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 4: That's why I asked, well, we did the hierarchy of evil.

260
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 4: I'll ask you drew the hierarchy evil. I wanted to

261
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 4: put in Matt's lost Jets offensive line and Matt's lawson.

262
00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, now he's the guy that Dovid pushing leg.

263
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,960
Speaker 4: Right and it got some run, but it was not

264
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 4: enough to get him in the hierarchy of evil.

265
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 3: But I said, I said the same thing. I'm like,

266
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 3: you'd already lost a Miko.

267
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 4: Now you lose cushion, and now you're just trying to

268
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 4: patch work it together for the rest of the year.

269
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 4: And you were super talented everywhere else in the field,

270
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 4: and guys were just you had to try and get

271
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 4: the most out of.

272
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 3: Brady James and Barrett Rude and you get to New

273
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 3: England you're toast.

274
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 2: Dude. I still have not had a chance to do this.

275
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 2: There's going to come a time when you know the

276
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 2: situation is right. But I want to ask Nick Cassario

277
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 2: this when he has a moment there's no stress going on,

278
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 2: I want to ask him. Hey. Ahead of that twelve

279
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 2: Monday night football matchup, was Belichick basically like this was

280
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:43,120
Speaker 2: he like, Okay, well they've got a good defensive line,

281
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 2: corners are solid and good back in with Danielle Manning,

282
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 2: Liver Cure, Ing, Ming, Ming, Ming, Ming, Ming, Ming Ning,

283
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,560
Speaker 2: Barrett Rude, Brady James. Yeah, I mean that went off

284
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 2: like him, that that must have And then what they

285
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 2: do they'd attacked him with wide receivers, running backs and

286
00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 2: just anyhow.

287
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that's that's I guarantee you that's exactly

288
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,200
Speaker 4: what they did, knowing how they knowing how they approach things.

289
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 3: I guarantee.

290
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 4: They looked at it and went, wait a second, We've

291
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 4: got we've got running backs that could beat these guys.

292
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 3: They were past receiving running backs over the years, whether

293
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 3: it was James White, whether it was Stephen.

294
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 4: Ridley, Shane Verene, James White, any of those guys that

295
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 4: they had, Like, hey, when those guys in a game,

296
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 4: and you could say, I remember there was one there's

297
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 4: one moment in that game. And I was doing overnights

298
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 4: at that time, so I'm watching the game like getting

299
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 4: ready for my show, and I see like on the

300
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 4: couch watching it in studio and I'm watching going, oh god,

301
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 4: oh god, please no, They've got Rude on on.

302
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 3: Oh no, Rud's on Veren, oh no. And you could

303
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,319
Speaker 3: just see it. It was just like this beacon of

304
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 3: light going, They're gonna the rudest guy.

305
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 2: Rude could probably have handled that like seven years prior.

306
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,319
Speaker 2: H Yeah, I think the Texas had pulled him off

307
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 2: exactly right couch in November. Really good guy. I remember

308
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 2: the first time I heard him spoke. I went up

309
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,200
Speaker 2: and I was I introduced myself in the locker room,

310
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,960
Speaker 2: and his locker was somewhat near Sean Cody's and Cody

311
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 2: heard him spoke and Cody was like, ears pricked up.

312
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,320
Speaker 2: He's like, hey, brother, you got a really good deep voice.

313
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:11,680
Speaker 2: I like that voice of years, so it's pretty good.

314
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 2: That's pretty good. I uh, that's man, I could see

315
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 2: that happening. Your scenario with six, I think the number

316
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 2: will be a little bit lower than that. I still

317
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 2: think it hits the over three and a half.

318
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 3: Yeah.

319
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 2: My only quibble with yours is I think the NFL

320
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 2: will put one of the primetime games, whether it's a

321
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 2: Saturday afternooner, whether it's you know, one of the others.

322
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 2: I think one of them is going to be a

323
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 2: divisional matchup.

324
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I think about it.

325
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know what a what a season the Texans had,

326
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 2: but you were one play away there from If the

327
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 2: Colts get that conversion late what happened, things are different,

328
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 2: you know. And that's a pretty good team with a

329
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 2: quarterback who I think we all think Anthony Richardson's gonna

330
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 2: better than Gardner and shoot, you know, I just think

331
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 2: that and Trevor Lawrence. What if they bounced back. They've

332
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 2: added some stuff. Man, the Tennessee Titans have, They've got

333
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 2: some weapons I think this is a good division. No,

334
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 2: I do a lot of crap, and I think you're

335
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 2: gonna see a divisional matchup slid in there, and I

336
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 2: think it's gonna be a hell of a game.

337
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 3: I know, disagree, I think, and Mark and I talked

338
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 3: about this.

339
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 4: I think if it's gonna be a division matchup, I

340
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 4: think it's gonna be one that gets flexed in. So

341
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 4: I think it's gonna be one that gets flexed in

342
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 4: like last year. And that's why I got the Colts

343
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 4: at the end of the year because I very I

344
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 4: think it could very easily come down to the Colts again.

345
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,800
Speaker 4: I mean the Jaguars matchups, I don't I didn't have

346
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 4: the Jaguars matchups.

347
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,200
Speaker 3: In periods where it could get flexed.

348
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 4: The Titans, one of the Titans could depending on what

349
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 4: the Titans do. But the one Titans and two Colts

350
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 4: are in positions where they could easily get flexed. So

351
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 4: I kind of have that as a thought process as

352
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,360
Speaker 4: I went through, Like, I don't think they would give

353
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 4: a straight up just AFC South. Now. I do think

354
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 4: they could Thirdday night, they could do a Thursday night.

355
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 4: But since I had the Texans penciled in with the

356
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 4: Cowboys on Thanksgiving. I thought, well, no, it doesn't mean

357
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 4: that they don't they can't have a Thursday night because

358
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 4: I think the Cowboys, if I remember correctly, the Cowboys

359
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 4: played on a Thanksgiving afternoon and then played on Thursday

360
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 4: the next week.

361
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 3: If I remember correct.

362
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 2: That's happened. Absolutely, it has happened in their history.

363
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 4: So the Texans could have that Thanksgiving game and then

364
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 4: have a Thursday game some other time, which I don't

365
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 4: know if that will happen.

366
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 3: I you know it's been done before. But I have

367
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 3: felt like the division game, if it's going to be

368
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 3: a division game, it's going to be flexed.

369
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 4: Well, well, they don't think to your point, Drew, I

370
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 4: don't know that people truly understand how good and how

371
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 4: competitive this division could.

372
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 3: Actually be in twenty twenty four.

373
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I think you do. I think I do. Yeah,

374
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 2: we know Marke today, Yeah, I think absolutely. But yeah,

375
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 2: a lot of the stuff I'm seeing on twitters it's

376
00:16:53,840 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 2: pretty interest. Anyways, Let's move on bye week before or

377
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 2: after October twentieth. You think it happens, when you think

378
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 2: it happens.

379
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 3: I'm gon say, after God, I hope. So I hate

380
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 3: that ice. It said. I had it week nine or

381
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 3: week ten.

382
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 4: I tried to put it right in the middle because

383
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,479
Speaker 4: that's when I wanted it, and I don't want it

384
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,160
Speaker 4: right in the middle, so I get like November one.

385
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 3: That's where I put it. Now.

386
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, the early bye just stinks, and it stinks for

387
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 4: a number of reasons.

388
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:31,680
Speaker 3: I'll give you a couple of selfish ones.

389
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 4: Number one, if you get to early bye and you're

390
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,360
Speaker 4: early October with that, which pretty much is about when

391
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 4: it is, you still don't have good weather.

392
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,480
Speaker 3: You still have got ninety plus degree weather.

393
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, I want to get it into November where if

394
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:49,359
Speaker 4: I'm gonna have the weekend off, if you will, I

395
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 4: want seventy degrees. I want a little breeze. I want,

396
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 4: you know, maybe a little cloud cover. I want to

397
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,120
Speaker 4: be able to go out and go. Yes, I got

398
00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,919
Speaker 4: this weekend and this is great weather that I you know,

399
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,879
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna sweat when I go do everything. I

400
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:05,640
Speaker 4: want to have good weather. So that's one selfish reason. Secondly,

401
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 4: that stretch last year was long, long, long, Even though

402
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 4: even though we're playing well and playing some really exciting games,

403
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:19,159
Speaker 4: that was a long stretch because we go what we

404
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,680
Speaker 4: went five games then the bye I think was week six?

405
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 3: Is that right?

406
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:24,920
Speaker 2: Is that right? Something like that. It was too early.

407
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 4: It was too early. So I think I put it

408
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 4: and we've had it. I think for twenty one and

409
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 4: twenty two we had it like right in the middle.

410
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 4: Week nine or week ten. It was like right in

411
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,640
Speaker 4: the middle. It was like cool, I like this, right

412
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 4: in the middle, get a longer stretch to start. But

413
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 4: then okay, catch your breath and then go. You didn't

414
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 4: even really kind of get into the heart of the

415
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 4: season all some boom, here's your buye.

416
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I say this, perfect world, give me a Monday

417
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:52,120
Speaker 2: nighter in late September, give me the bye November one,

418
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,439
Speaker 2: and give me like a Thursday nighter or two, or

419
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:57,640
Speaker 2: a Thursday night er and a Monday nighter spaced out

420
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:02,159
Speaker 2: in November. You get weekends, you know, get get those

421
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:04,679
Speaker 2: Get those weekends.

422
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, those weekends are kind of nice to have. Yeah,

423
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 4: the times. Yeah, absolutely so. I can't remember I put it.

424
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 4: Go read my article.

425
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 2: You can.

426
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 4: You could check it out and see where I put it.

427
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:19,159
Speaker 4: I think it was week nine that I put it in. Okay,

428
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:20,879
Speaker 4: that's I think that's where I put it, because I

429
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 4: think week ten was a trip to Jacksonville, and I

430
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 4: think that was an early November, so it was.

431
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 3: Right around the last week, so week nine.

432
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 4: If I'm doing my math correct and looking at my calendar,

433
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,160
Speaker 4: because that's what we do in the lab, that would

434
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 4: have been so the for one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,

435
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 4: eight nine. Yeah, so November third, Yeah, the weekend of

436
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 4: November third, that would have been. That would have been

437
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,040
Speaker 4: it if I'm looking at the right thing. So all right,

438
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 4: this isn't really schedule release. But over under you're playing

439
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 4: the Cowboys. Stroud's healthy, Both teams are pretty good. Doesn't

440
00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 4: matter where it is in the season. Over under, Texans

441
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 4: fans will represent thirty five percent of the crowd over

442
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:07,160
Speaker 4: on the road.

443
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 3: Over I mean even in twenty twenty two, it was

444
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 3: not a what.

445
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 2: Would you say, it was like forty five to fifty percent.

446
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:12,880
Speaker 3: In twenty twenty two.

447
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 2: No, twenty oh, twenty four teen, I feel like it

448
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 2: was real.

449
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 3: It was over that number. Yeah, it was. It was

450
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 3: almost it was almost fifty to fifty. It was incredible

451
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:21,400
Speaker 3: to see.

452
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:23,879
Speaker 4: So I would imagine if the Texans are playing well

453
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 4: and whether the Cowboys are playing well or not, but

454
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,360
Speaker 4: the Texans are playing well. Like even twenty twenty two

455
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,400
Speaker 4: was not it was not a massive number, but they're

456
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 4: still because it was Dallas and there was a game

457
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:35,360
Speaker 4: that Texans should have won.

458
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 3: Well, there are a lot of.

459
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 4: Things that we can end up doing this year that

460
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 4: would be awesome. We could win in New England for

461
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 4: the first time. Yeah, we could win in Dallas for

462
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 4: the first time, to be big. Never beat him in

463
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,159
Speaker 4: Texas Stadium, never beat him in Texas Stadium. Never you know,

464
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 4: beat Dallas at Dallas. Never done it, so that that

465
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,120
Speaker 4: would be kind of nice. So to get to get

466
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 4: those two wins. Now, I don't want to go two

467
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:56,679
Speaker 4: and fifteen and those are only two wins we have,

468
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 4: but you get the point. Want to be successful, but

469
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 4: I think to do so, you got to win those

470
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,080
Speaker 4: games and beat those good teams on the road. And

471
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,240
Speaker 4: New England's not obviously what they were, so you got

472
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 4: to go in there and do work.

473
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 3: So I had New England Week three.

474
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 4: But yeah, I think I think if we're playing well

475
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,120
Speaker 4: and we're playing like people expect us to, I think

476
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,159
Speaker 4: that that could be fifty to fifty five percent or

477
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 4: more I mean, our fans will show our fans will

478
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 4: show up to make to make a point, as they

479
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 4: did in twenty fourteen. I mean that that was I

480
00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 4: still say that was the most incredible environment because it

481
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 4: was a college game. It was a college game, and

482
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 4: we obviously coming to Tech. There are no such things.

483
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:36,480
Speaker 4: There's no such thing as a neutral sych game until

484
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:39,440
Speaker 4: you get the super Bowl. But super bowls different because corporate,

485
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:43,679
Speaker 4: it's just different. But a college game, you go to

486
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 4: a college rivalry game like I've been to.

487
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 2: Florida, Georgia, Texas, Oklahoma is awesome. I wish I had

488
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,640
Speaker 2: been that. Oh you've never been, never been. You gotta

489
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 2: go to that. But it's split down the middle.

490
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 4: Whether it's long ways with whatever, it's split down the middle.

491
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 4: And it's incredible to hear one side of this thadium

492
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 4: cheer while the other one is quiet. I mean, that's

493
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 4: it was like the National Championship game in some sense,

494
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 4: being here but Washington Michigan, because Washington's fans showed up.

495
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 3: They showed up in droves, not as much as Michigan.

496
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 4: But then you would hear when Washington would do something,

497
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 4: you would hear that crowd, like in the distance, and

498
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 4: when Michigan would do it, it would be like this roar

499
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,119
Speaker 4: from this side. It was really interesting. And that's what

500
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 4: made that game in fourteen so incredible, was that because

501
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:30,399
Speaker 4: you would hear Texans. It wasn't. In every other place

502
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 4: you are, you're gonna hear the home crowd, or you're

503
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 4: gonna hear the Texans crowd whether it's a home or

504
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 4: away game.

505
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 3: But that one, it was split.

506
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:39,359
Speaker 4: It really was like a college game and it just

507
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 4: made ith It made it that much more exciting.

508
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 3: It was incredible.

509
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,400
Speaker 2: Sure did all right, It's always incredible talking with.
