WEBVTT - Brandon Jacobs Talks Giants, Fans, and Does Defense Matter

0:00:03.920 --> 0:00:08.559
<v Speaker 1>From the King of sports Books comes the Key sports

0:00:08.560 --> 0:00:19.040
<v Speaker 1>podcast Unleashed, presented by bet MGM. Here's your host, Jana's

0:00:19.040 --> 0:00:28.960
<v Speaker 1>Papas and Olivia Harlan Decker. Welcome everyone. This is Unleashed

0:00:28.960 --> 0:00:33.040
<v Speaker 1>by bet MGM, the King of Sports Books. I always

0:00:33.080 --> 0:00:37.320
<v Speaker 1>love saying that another completely unpredictable, wild, weird week in

0:00:37.440 --> 0:00:41.640
<v Speaker 1>the NFL. Oh my gosh, Superman returns. Cam Newton is

0:00:41.680 --> 0:00:45.640
<v Speaker 1>back in Carolina and it was like he never left.

0:00:45.920 --> 0:00:49.680
<v Speaker 1>His clothes also are as amazing as ever, his pregame fit,

0:00:49.880 --> 0:00:53.840
<v Speaker 1>his post game fit. It all works. The Packers beat

0:00:53.880 --> 0:00:56.760
<v Speaker 1>the Seahawks for the tenth straight time at lambeau Field

0:00:56.800 --> 0:00:59.920
<v Speaker 1>with two future Hall of Famers on the field, Aaron Rodgers,

0:01:00.160 --> 0:01:04.119
<v Speaker 1>Russell Wilson, and the Packers pitched a shutout. Aaron Rodgers

0:01:04.200 --> 0:01:07.600
<v Speaker 1>didn't throw a single touchdown, which is crazy. But just watch.

0:01:07.640 --> 0:01:10.760
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna forget all about this whole vaccine gate soon

0:01:10.880 --> 0:01:14.679
<v Speaker 1>enough as they keep marching their way to Los Angeles

0:01:14.840 --> 0:01:18.880
<v Speaker 1>to play in the Super Bowl this February. Mark my words. Honest, Papas,

0:01:18.959 --> 0:01:21.759
<v Speaker 1>what do you think, Well, you know, Aaron Rodgers didn't

0:01:21.800 --> 0:01:23.920
<v Speaker 1>throw a touchdown. It takes about a week for the

0:01:23.959 --> 0:01:26.920
<v Speaker 1>iver mecton to kick in. So he's still feeling of

0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:29.720
<v Speaker 1>some effects and the covid so of the zinc and

0:01:29.720 --> 0:01:32.080
<v Speaker 1>and the iver met can take a little while. Also,

0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:34.320
<v Speaker 1>I'd just like to say to bed MGM, I want

0:01:34.319 --> 0:01:36.760
<v Speaker 1>to put you on notice. I think we should start

0:01:36.800 --> 0:01:42.480
<v Speaker 1>calling you the queen of sports books stuff representing the patriarchy.

0:01:42.560 --> 0:01:45.480
<v Speaker 1>You are the queen of sports books. I love it,

0:01:45.560 --> 0:01:48.280
<v Speaker 1>you honest, I love it. You are one for the women,

0:01:48.400 --> 0:01:51.760
<v Speaker 1>You're a man for the women. I love it. So. Also,

0:01:51.840 --> 0:01:55.240
<v Speaker 1>this weekend, the New England Patriots completely blow out the

0:01:55.280 --> 0:01:58.440
<v Speaker 1>Cleveland Browns. Don't look now, but the Paths are getting

0:01:58.480 --> 0:02:02.080
<v Speaker 1>hot at just the right time. I like watching that team.

0:02:02.120 --> 0:02:05.000
<v Speaker 1>And yes, speaking of hotties in Janice, I don't mean

0:02:05.040 --> 0:02:07.680
<v Speaker 1>your big night out with John Stamos this weekend whoop

0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:11.400
<v Speaker 1>your guy, Jimmy g proved don't count the forty niners

0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:14.360
<v Speaker 1>out just yet. They had a big win over the

0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:19.480
<v Speaker 1>Rams that somehow, against all and any odds. You called it?

0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:25.760
<v Speaker 1>How it? That's the beauty of betting, oh d. Sometimes

0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:28.080
<v Speaker 1>you just you you want to win big, you have

0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:30.400
<v Speaker 1>to bet big and go for the dog. And I

0:02:30.440 --> 0:02:34.240
<v Speaker 1>went for the dog. And is that as good as

0:02:34.639 --> 0:02:38.239
<v Speaker 1>Dan Orlowski's whoa. That was good. That kind of freaked

0:02:38.280 --> 0:02:42.720
<v Speaker 1>me out. That caught me off guard. That was really good. Yeah.

0:02:42.800 --> 0:02:45.720
<v Speaker 1>Now the Rams have three losses. Their plus eight hundred

0:02:45.800 --> 0:02:47.920
<v Speaker 1>to win the Super Bowl. By the way, that's on

0:02:48.000 --> 0:02:51.160
<v Speaker 1>bet MGM. And this week we have a great guest

0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:54.960
<v Speaker 1>who knows a thing or two about a championship caliber team.

0:02:55.000 --> 0:02:58.240
<v Speaker 1>It's two times Super Bowl champion former New York Giants

0:02:58.320 --> 0:03:01.600
<v Speaker 1>running back Brandon Jacob. He'll be joining us in just

0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:05.400
<v Speaker 1>a bit. Brandon Jacobs was part responsible for giving me

0:03:05.520 --> 0:03:08.560
<v Speaker 1>two of the greatest nights of my life. We're gonna

0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:12.160
<v Speaker 1>talk to him all about those games against the Pats. Also,

0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:16.000
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna come all together because the g Men have

0:03:16.720 --> 0:03:21.960
<v Speaker 1>Mr Brady and the defending Super Bowl champion Buccaneers on

0:03:22.040 --> 0:03:24.720
<v Speaker 1>Monday night, so to preview that and the other games

0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:30.359
<v Speaker 1>on this weekend slate. We also got our guy, my guy,

0:03:30.600 --> 0:03:33.800
<v Speaker 1>Peter the Greek Andrews coming up at the end of

0:03:33.840 --> 0:03:36.960
<v Speaker 1>the show. So he's got the best betting advices. We

0:03:37.000 --> 0:03:40.560
<v Speaker 1>try to win some cash money, but you know, he

0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:42.960
<v Speaker 1>may want to take my betting advice because it's official.

0:03:43.080 --> 0:03:47.080
<v Speaker 1>Your boy won this past weekend and oh d I

0:03:47.120 --> 0:03:50.360
<v Speaker 1>apologize again. You're not gonna want to be friends with

0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:53.040
<v Speaker 1>me after this out rule I read for you, but

0:03:53.520 --> 0:03:56.800
<v Speaker 1>you'll have to pay up once again in punishment picks.

0:03:57.440 --> 0:03:59.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, I think it's okay. I don't think anyone

0:03:59.400 --> 0:04:01.840
<v Speaker 1>listens up on the show anyways. Right at the very end,

0:04:01.920 --> 0:04:04.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't think they're listening. I know two people that don't,

0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:09.760
<v Speaker 1>and that's your mom and Sam's mom. They I just say, Mom,

0:04:09.840 --> 0:04:12.400
<v Speaker 1>just leave it alone at the end. But I really

0:04:12.480 --> 0:04:14.080
<v Speaker 1>I've got to get my act together. I can't keep

0:04:14.160 --> 0:04:17.240
<v Speaker 1>losing you, my friend. Okay, Well I'm not alone in

0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:20.200

0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:04.360
<v Speaker 1>Now it's time for us to go off on one

0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:09.320
<v Speaker 1>topic we feel passionately about this week. Let's unleach. It's

0:05:09.360 --> 0:05:19.560
<v Speaker 1>time to leach Rue Olivia might beloved. Oh d you know.

0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:23.440
<v Speaker 1>I love the NFL. Okay, I love football. I love

0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:26.440
<v Speaker 1>having this job because I get to tell my wife

0:05:26.440 --> 0:05:29.159
<v Speaker 1>I have to go to work and I watch football. Yeah.

0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:33.320
<v Speaker 1>I literally will watch any single game, and this weekend

0:05:33.360 --> 0:05:38.760
<v Speaker 1>prove that because we have some straight dumpster fires. What

0:05:39.000 --> 0:05:43.560
<v Speaker 1>a week we had. On Sunday and Monday, the Cowboys

0:05:43.560 --> 0:05:49.960
<v Speaker 1>blew out the Falcons. The Bill straight roasted the Jets seven.

0:05:50.000 --> 0:05:52.400
<v Speaker 1>I fell asleep during that game. The Chiefs cooked the

0:05:52.480 --> 0:05:56.560
<v Speaker 1>Raiders forty one fourteen, and the Patriots embarrassed the Browns

0:05:56.920 --> 0:06:00.600
<v Speaker 1>forty five to seven. This game was so bad CBS

0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:04.520
<v Speaker 1>apologized literally to everyone and went to a different game

0:06:04.600 --> 0:06:07.680
<v Speaker 1>in the third quarter. The third quarter, that's plenty of

0:06:07.720 --> 0:06:10.479
<v Speaker 1>time left on the ticker. There really needs to be

0:06:10.480 --> 0:06:13.320
<v Speaker 1>a rule. I believe if you're up thirty eight points,

0:06:13.880 --> 0:06:16.680
<v Speaker 1>that's the game. That's it. Instead of a rep flag,

0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:19.800
<v Speaker 1>a coach just needs to throw a white flag because

0:06:19.920 --> 0:06:23.760
<v Speaker 1>it's a wrap bubbus. It's over. Just go to another game.

0:06:24.120 --> 0:06:26.240
<v Speaker 1>Some of these teams need to be regulated, just like

0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:28.560
<v Speaker 1>in soccer. This is right. Really, think if you're the

0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:31.880
<v Speaker 1>worst team, uh, you're coach dead lasts so in the

0:06:31.920 --> 0:06:34.680
<v Speaker 1>CFL the following season and you need to work your

0:06:34.680 --> 0:06:36.719
<v Speaker 1>way back up to the NFL. That's right. They should

0:06:36.760 --> 0:06:40.200
<v Speaker 1>send whole teams down, just like players in baseball gets

0:06:40.200 --> 0:06:43.200
<v Speaker 1>sent down to the minors. The Jets should be sent down.

0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:47.880
<v Speaker 1>But what really drives you crazy is why are starters

0:06:48.120 --> 0:06:51.840
<v Speaker 1>still in the game when we're in garbage time? To

0:06:52.040 --> 0:06:55.480
<v Speaker 1>coaches have fantasy football teams. I don't get it, because

0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:58.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, baseball has their unwritten rules and social in

0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:02.200
<v Speaker 1>the NFL, because these guys are still in there playing

0:07:02.200 --> 0:07:04.520
<v Speaker 1>at top speed and these are some of the top players,

0:07:04.880 --> 0:07:07.080
<v Speaker 1>and you know they're playing in meaningless minutes and in

0:07:07.120 --> 0:07:10.160
<v Speaker 1>a game like football that's so violent, you could get

0:07:10.200 --> 0:07:13.000
<v Speaker 1>somebody hurt, and it's happened plenty of times, and that's

0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:16.160
<v Speaker 1>the coach's fault. A few years ago, Gront broke his

0:07:16.280 --> 0:07:20.240
<v Speaker 1>forearm late in the game of a blowout against the Colts,

0:07:20.520 --> 0:07:22.520
<v Speaker 1>Belichick was running up to score on teams like it's

0:07:22.520 --> 0:07:25.000
<v Speaker 1>a bonus in his contract. I don't get it. James

0:07:25.080 --> 0:07:27.720
<v Speaker 1>Conner suffered a shouldery injury late in the game that

0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:29.800
<v Speaker 1>was out of reach. Was when he was with the Steelers,

0:07:30.200 --> 0:07:32.920
<v Speaker 1>and all weekend I saw it, including Monday Night football.

0:07:33.000 --> 0:07:37.560
<v Speaker 1>Matthew Stafford was still playing in the game down thirty

0:07:37.640 --> 0:07:40.800
<v Speaker 1>with five minutes left. Same with Josh Allen and the

0:07:40.840 --> 0:07:44.160
<v Speaker 1>Bills when they were winning. What are we doing? Get

0:07:44.200 --> 0:07:46.880
<v Speaker 1>those fucking guys out of there and give them some

0:07:46.960 --> 0:07:51.920
<v Speaker 1>chunky soup on the bench. Okay, I've had enough of this, dude.

0:07:52.080 --> 0:07:55.200
<v Speaker 1>These coaches, they're so paranmoid about losing their jobs. They

0:07:55.280 --> 0:07:58.160
<v Speaker 1>keep their stars in because of some improbable comeback that's

0:07:58.160 --> 0:08:01.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna happen. It's not gonna happen. Put your stars on

0:08:01.400 --> 0:08:06.080
<v Speaker 1>the bench and that's set. I've unleashed. Okay, honestly, that

0:08:06.160 --> 0:08:08.960
<v Speaker 1>was great. I agree. It's just not safe. But I'm

0:08:08.960 --> 0:08:11.040
<v Speaker 1>also gonna stick with the NFL this week. But I'm

0:08:11.040 --> 0:08:13.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna go to the Zebras. The refs. They have a

0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:16.160
<v Speaker 1>very tough job, right Their jobs have been made even

0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:19.240
<v Speaker 1>harder trying to figure out what it catches, what is

0:08:19.360 --> 0:08:21.560
<v Speaker 1>roughing the passer, what is a late hit, what is

0:08:21.600 --> 0:08:25.120
<v Speaker 1>helmet to helmet? But now they have to worry about taunting.

0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:28.560
<v Speaker 1>This has been a great topic all season. A lot

0:08:28.680 --> 0:08:32.120
<v Speaker 1>of people have been unleashing on this on their respective channels,

0:08:32.360 --> 0:08:35.520
<v Speaker 1>but it was this clip from Ryan Clark on ESPN

0:08:35.559 --> 0:08:37.600
<v Speaker 1>that really made me think about it differently. Let's roll

0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:40.280
<v Speaker 1>that in. I think you can't make this call subjective.

0:08:40.360 --> 0:08:43.079
<v Speaker 1>If there's going to be certain rules or certain things

0:08:43.120 --> 0:08:45.959
<v Speaker 1>that are officiated in this, they need to be definitive.

0:08:46.040 --> 0:08:47.800
<v Speaker 1>I need to know that I can't stare at people.

0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:49.920
<v Speaker 1>I need to know that I can't flex my muscles.

0:08:49.960 --> 0:08:52.440
<v Speaker 1>I need to know that what I've worked my entire

0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:54.760
<v Speaker 1>life to do, the thing that I've stayed up from

0:08:54.760 --> 0:08:57.280
<v Speaker 1>five in the morning to midnight every single night, the

0:08:57.280 --> 0:08:59.480
<v Speaker 1>thing that I've gotten therapy and needles stuck from my

0:08:59.559 --> 0:09:01.600
<v Speaker 1>neck to my ankles, the reason I've been in cold

0:09:01.640 --> 0:09:04.240
<v Speaker 1>tubs and hot tubs every single morning, and the reason

0:09:04.280 --> 0:09:06.679
<v Speaker 1>I've ran through film eighty million times because so I

0:09:06.679 --> 0:09:08.760
<v Speaker 1>can make that one play. You mean to tell me

0:09:08.800 --> 0:09:11.160
<v Speaker 1>on that one play. I gotta calm all that down

0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:14.240
<v Speaker 1>that went into this because somebody who can't do what

0:09:14.320 --> 0:09:16.520
<v Speaker 1>I do, who ain't never done what I've done and

0:09:16.600 --> 0:09:19.880
<v Speaker 1>don't know what this feeling is like, gets offended by it,

0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:23.320
<v Speaker 1>and I wish I freaking would. That's right. We can't

0:09:23.320 --> 0:09:26.880
<v Speaker 1>have players celebrating and hurting grown men's feelings by taunting.

0:09:27.000 --> 0:09:29.920
<v Speaker 1>It's just horrible. I mean, it's it's these egos we

0:09:30.000 --> 0:09:32.400
<v Speaker 1>have to think about. We saw a critical taunting call

0:09:32.440 --> 0:09:34.280
<v Speaker 1>in the Steelers Brown's game that was just a few

0:09:34.320 --> 0:09:37.880
<v Speaker 1>weeks ago on Cassius marsh and honestly, I'm still not

0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:40.559
<v Speaker 1>sure what he did. I don't know. I've watched it

0:09:40.600 --> 0:09:43.000
<v Speaker 1>back a couple of times. We've seen some taunting calls

0:09:43.040 --> 0:09:46.160
<v Speaker 1>this season that weren't taunting, Like on a playground, they

0:09:46.160 --> 0:09:48.480
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't call that. There are enough rules for the rest

0:09:48.520 --> 0:09:51.000
<v Speaker 1>to worry about in the NFL. Tunting just shouldn't be

0:09:51.040 --> 0:09:55.640
<v Speaker 1>one of them. What's next penalty flags for screaming too loud? Like, Seriously,

0:09:55.960 --> 0:09:57.920
<v Speaker 1>we need to figure this out. And from the honest

0:09:57.960 --> 0:10:00.800
<v Speaker 1>is unleashed, I think I figured this. If your team

0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:02.880
<v Speaker 1>is up thirty on the other team, right, a clear

0:10:02.880 --> 0:10:05.360
<v Speaker 1>and cut rule, you can taunt as much as you want.

0:10:05.440 --> 0:10:08.040
<v Speaker 1>In fact, you deserve to be taunted at that point,

0:10:08.120 --> 0:10:12.439
<v Speaker 1>what do you think, jest? Do you think this? Hell yeah,

0:10:12.800 --> 0:10:16.760
<v Speaker 1>hell yeah. I mean, look, let them taunt. It's part

0:10:16.920 --> 0:10:19.319
<v Speaker 1>the theatrics, so like fun for the fans to watch

0:10:19.360 --> 0:10:23.439
<v Speaker 1>the celebrations dances. I mean, it's the NFL. You know,

0:10:23.480 --> 0:10:26.160
<v Speaker 1>they're not kids anymore. Like if that's gonna be a

0:10:26.160 --> 0:10:30.320
<v Speaker 1>bad influence on kids, then you know, maybe parents need

0:10:30.360 --> 0:10:32.400
<v Speaker 1>to do a better job. You know, it's like it's

0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:35.079
<v Speaker 1>not a big deal. Let them celebrate their grown men.

0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:38.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean everyone's so sensitive nowadays. Well, that is top

0:10:38.200 --> 0:10:40.760
<v Speaker 1>of the list of parenting advice that I need before May,

0:10:41.440 --> 0:10:43.920
<v Speaker 1>and I'm going to get more from you. Janes's Pampas,

0:10:44.160 --> 0:10:47.480
<v Speaker 1>thank you so much. Another parent and someone who knows

0:10:47.559 --> 0:10:49.840
<v Speaker 1>a lot more about the NFL than us is coming up.

0:10:49.880 --> 0:10:53.400
<v Speaker 1>It is our guest, two times Super Bowl champ, Brandon Jacobs.

0:10:53.480 --> 0:11:04.160
<v Speaker 1>Let's say hello to Brandon. He's a two time Super

0:11:04.200 --> 0:11:07.319
<v Speaker 1>Bowl champion and the New York Football Giants all time

0:11:07.400 --> 0:11:11.480
<v Speaker 1>leader in career rushing touchdowns. Brandon Jacobs, thanks so much

0:11:11.520 --> 0:11:14.000
<v Speaker 1>for being here, well, thanks for having me, for the

0:11:14.080 --> 0:11:16.720
<v Speaker 1>honor to be here, and ready to have some fun.

0:11:17.800 --> 0:11:19.960
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, you know, I mentioned Janice might be a

0:11:19.960 --> 0:11:22.439
<v Speaker 1>little star struck to see you here. He's the biggest

0:11:22.440 --> 0:11:25.520
<v Speaker 1>Giants fan, I know, the honest is the coolest guy

0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:29.760
<v Speaker 1>on the planet. Then, yeah, exactly. Now we're off to

0:11:29.800 --> 0:11:32.120
<v Speaker 1>a great start. I mean, you know, this is like

0:11:32.160 --> 0:11:34.440
<v Speaker 1>a dream come true. You're responsible for two of the

0:11:34.480 --> 0:11:38.640
<v Speaker 1>greatest nights of my life to the greatest games in

0:11:38.760 --> 0:11:42.600
<v Speaker 1>football history. It's just good to see you, my friend.

0:11:43.040 --> 0:11:45.760
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, he man, Hey, thank you man. I appreciate

0:11:45.800 --> 0:11:47.839
<v Speaker 1>you for all the support over the years, and even

0:11:47.880 --> 0:11:50.800
<v Speaker 1>though when things were ugly, guys like you said in

0:11:50.840 --> 0:11:56.080
<v Speaker 1>there and we gave you the gift you deserve. Yes, okay,

0:11:56.080 --> 0:11:58.640
<v Speaker 1>now johannest is just gonna clip that and and play

0:11:58.640 --> 0:12:01.280
<v Speaker 1>it on repeat around as how Son speakers, you know.

0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:04.760
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of fans and interactions with fans, I saw a

0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:07.880
<v Speaker 1>tweet where you were somewhere with your kids and someone

0:12:07.920 --> 0:12:10.160
<v Speaker 1>asked for a picture and you said, I'm not Brandon

0:12:10.240 --> 0:12:13.400
<v Speaker 1>Jacobs today. I really liked that. Can you elaborate on

0:12:13.640 --> 0:12:16.960
<v Speaker 1>priorities when you're with your family versus your love for

0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:21.600
<v Speaker 1>the fans? You know, depending on the person, that situation

0:12:21.640 --> 0:12:23.600
<v Speaker 1>could get kind of ugly, you know, if they don't

0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:26.480
<v Speaker 1>have a clear understanding or if they don't see people

0:12:27.400 --> 0:12:30.760
<v Speaker 1>like me often, so they never get that opportunity again,

0:12:30.840 --> 0:12:32.600
<v Speaker 1>so they kind of take it in a bad way,

0:12:33.040 --> 0:12:35.160
<v Speaker 1>you know. But I am nice to them. I even

0:12:35.160 --> 0:12:37.760
<v Speaker 1>put my hand on them and tell them, hey, listen,

0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:42.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm not branding today. I'm that, you know, because the

0:12:42.280 --> 0:12:44.760
<v Speaker 1>thing that, like some of the things that happened, which

0:12:44.840 --> 0:12:47.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't mind taking the picture, even when I'm with

0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:50.440
<v Speaker 1>my family at times, I don't mind taking the picture.

0:12:50.679 --> 0:12:52.880
<v Speaker 1>But when there's a bunch of people around and I

0:12:52.960 --> 0:12:56.000
<v Speaker 1>noticed all these people looking at me crazy, I noticed that.

0:12:56.040 --> 0:12:59.280
<v Speaker 1>So if I stopped and we were at six Flags,

0:12:59.280 --> 0:13:01.760
<v Speaker 1>so every I was in Jersey, So I'm like, everybody

0:13:01.800 --> 0:13:03.599
<v Speaker 1>really know who I was. So if I would have

0:13:03.640 --> 0:13:06.960
<v Speaker 1>stopped taking one picture with that one person, I would

0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:09.240
<v Speaker 1>have to be there all day taking pictures and I

0:13:09.640 --> 0:13:12.360
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't have got to enjoy my family wouldn't have got

0:13:12.400 --> 0:13:15.400
<v Speaker 1>their chance to enjoy some rides and stuff like that.

0:13:15.440 --> 0:13:18.920
<v Speaker 1>So I just told everyone no because I wasn't in

0:13:19.000 --> 0:13:20.840
<v Speaker 1>that mode right then. You know, I was there to

0:13:20.840 --> 0:13:23.120
<v Speaker 1>have phone with my family. Yeah, and I'm sure they

0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:26.079
<v Speaker 1>got the message real quick. I mean, you know, you're you're,

0:13:26.160 --> 0:13:28.280
<v Speaker 1>as they would say, not a small guy. So it's

0:13:28.320 --> 0:13:30.120
<v Speaker 1>like if you told me, hey, I'm dad today, I'm

0:13:30.160 --> 0:13:35.000
<v Speaker 1>gonna be like, you know what, I apologize, sir, Yes, sir, sir,

0:13:35.559 --> 0:13:39.079
<v Speaker 1>I apologize, but you get but you get some people

0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:42.640
<v Speaker 1>that's like, you know, how aggressive the New York New

0:13:42.720 --> 0:13:45.200
<v Speaker 1>Jersey people are? They said aggressive people? You know that's

0:13:45.240 --> 0:13:48.800
<v Speaker 1>that's fair enough to say, right and oh yeah, they go, yeah,

0:13:49.160 --> 0:13:51.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, some don't mind telling you like all right

0:13:51.840 --> 0:13:54.760
<v Speaker 1>then blah blah blah blah blah blah. Are you stuck anyway?

0:13:54.880 --> 0:13:57.679
<v Speaker 1>You know, you stuff like that, like you hear it all,

0:13:58.400 --> 0:14:01.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, but yeah, you know, I mean I just

0:14:01.080 --> 0:14:03.560
<v Speaker 1>gotta keep moving. You know, people got in ti of

0:14:03.559 --> 0:14:05.200
<v Speaker 1>the field of where they want to feel, especially when

0:14:05.200 --> 0:14:08.760
<v Speaker 1>they get opportunity to see someone often and they want

0:14:08.760 --> 0:14:10.920
<v Speaker 1>to take advantage of the opportunity. I get that, you know,

0:14:11.000 --> 0:14:13.640
<v Speaker 1>but I'm not screwing up my family time but taking

0:14:13.640 --> 0:14:16.199
<v Speaker 1>pictures with two hundred people and I don't get a

0:14:16.280 --> 0:14:19.160
<v Speaker 1>chance to enjoy my kids and you know, my family. Yeah,

0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:21.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure most of those feedback has been positive though, right,

0:14:21.720 --> 0:14:24.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you want two super bowls against the evil Empire.

0:15:48.720 --> 0:15:51.840
<v Speaker 1>and that's a really long name. Yeah, it's a really

0:15:51.920 --> 0:15:54.120
<v Speaker 1>long name. So I'm kind of glad you didn't do that.

0:15:54.720 --> 0:15:57.280
<v Speaker 1>He made such an impact on so many people, Jannis

0:15:57.320 --> 0:15:59.560
<v Speaker 1>included for your time with the Giants, but you also

0:15:59.600 --> 0:16:02.720
<v Speaker 1>made some headlines this summer when there were rumors you

0:16:02.760 --> 0:16:05.560
<v Speaker 1>were thinking of making a comeback as a defensive end.

0:16:06.480 --> 0:16:10.280
<v Speaker 1>Why what and how close was this to happening? Well,

0:16:10.320 --> 0:16:13.480
<v Speaker 1>I kind of backed up off of it. Now, I

0:16:13.520 --> 0:16:15.560
<v Speaker 1>really though, you guys really want to know what it's about.

0:16:16.880 --> 0:16:19.640
<v Speaker 1>So I was we were out training, me and my kids.

0:16:20.400 --> 0:16:23.280
<v Speaker 1>We're out training. It was pushing this lid doing suspeeding agility,

0:16:23.360 --> 0:16:25.880
<v Speaker 1>and I kind of had a moment where I'm like,

0:16:26.480 --> 0:16:28.200
<v Speaker 1>do what. I wish your guys were older, like I

0:16:28.240 --> 0:16:30.320
<v Speaker 1>wish your mom was and I wish you had decided

0:16:30.320 --> 0:16:32.840
<v Speaker 1>to have these guys when we were in college, right,

0:16:33.440 --> 0:16:37.800
<v Speaker 1>which I tried to do that, but she she wasn't

0:16:37.800 --> 0:16:41.200
<v Speaker 1>feeling it. So um, you know, was like why, I said, Well,

0:16:41.240 --> 0:16:43.080
<v Speaker 1>because maybe you guys would have got a chance to

0:16:43.120 --> 0:16:46.440
<v Speaker 1>see me play and how heavy you guys are on

0:16:46.480 --> 0:16:48.520
<v Speaker 1>the sports now like you, I think you've really really

0:16:48.520 --> 0:16:50.720
<v Speaker 1>been impressed what you saw. You watched me play and

0:16:50.840 --> 0:16:55.120
<v Speaker 1>my team, and my youngest son says, go back and play.

0:16:55.560 --> 0:16:58.480
<v Speaker 1>Why go back and play. I think you can do it.

0:16:58.480 --> 0:17:00.320
<v Speaker 1>I said, If I do it, I've to go back

0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:03.200
<v Speaker 1>at the defensive event, a lot of defensive event because

0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:05.560
<v Speaker 1>it's just doing one thing. First, first and second down.

0:17:05.560 --> 0:17:08.000
<v Speaker 1>You're squeezing it down when the tackle leaves to stop

0:17:08.040 --> 0:17:10.240
<v Speaker 1>in the round. Third time, you're getting out of the quarterback.

0:17:10.359 --> 0:17:12.840
<v Speaker 1>It's simple. I think I'm fastering most of them now,

0:17:12.920 --> 0:17:15.320
<v Speaker 1>stronger and bigger than most of them. Now. I think

0:17:15.320 --> 0:17:18.240
<v Speaker 1>I can do that. And that's how we got to

0:17:18.280 --> 0:17:21.000
<v Speaker 1>where we were. You know, I got made some headlines,

0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:24.879
<v Speaker 1>called my agents. I talked to my agent, you know,

0:17:25.560 --> 0:17:27.680
<v Speaker 1>he reached out to some teams you know, they had

0:17:27.840 --> 0:17:29.800
<v Speaker 1>they Dad asked them playing with it in the back

0:17:29.840 --> 0:17:33.480
<v Speaker 1>of their mind, like the Lions, and uh, the Chargers

0:17:34.240 --> 0:17:36.879
<v Speaker 1>play it with a little bit, and uh it just

0:17:36.920 --> 0:17:40.040
<v Speaker 1>went away and I stopped focusing on and started coaching

0:17:40.080 --> 0:17:44.040
<v Speaker 1>high school football, and that really never looked back. Wow,

0:17:44.320 --> 0:17:47.200
<v Speaker 1>that's an incredible story. It's it, piaqued my interos. Some

0:17:47.200 --> 0:17:49.720
<v Speaker 1>something you said that you wish your kids remembered you playing.

0:17:50.000 --> 0:17:52.720
<v Speaker 1>My husband plays basketball. We're pregnant with our first right now,

0:17:53.200 --> 0:17:54.920
<v Speaker 1>and we kind of sped it up a couple of

0:17:55.000 --> 0:17:57.119
<v Speaker 1>years because of that reason. I said, I want our

0:17:57.200 --> 0:18:00.600
<v Speaker 1>kids to go see dad play a game that's so

0:18:00.640 --> 0:18:02.959
<v Speaker 1>cool to me and so unique. Do your kids have

0:18:03.000 --> 0:18:07.040
<v Speaker 1>any recollection? Like, how's your oldest? My oldest is four team,

0:18:07.600 --> 0:18:11.800
<v Speaker 1>So he was he was great. It was seven years

0:18:11.800 --> 0:18:16.080
<v Speaker 1>old and we moved here. And thank God for YouTube,

0:18:16.840 --> 0:18:19.040
<v Speaker 1>Like they go on there and then YouTube and they

0:18:19.160 --> 0:18:21.440
<v Speaker 1>look at it, you know. But what I want them

0:18:21.440 --> 0:18:23.480
<v Speaker 1>to see they see highlights. I want them to see

0:18:23.520 --> 0:18:25.720
<v Speaker 1>a whole game and how I respond throughout the course

0:18:25.760 --> 0:18:29.000
<v Speaker 1>of a four quarter game with positives and negatives, you know,

0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:31.879
<v Speaker 1>when dealing with adversity, when you think you're gonna get

0:18:31.920 --> 0:18:35.800
<v Speaker 1>cut type stuff, or when you get demoded, or when

0:18:35.800 --> 0:18:37.479
<v Speaker 1>they want to give you a pay cut, like how

0:18:37.520 --> 0:18:39.000
<v Speaker 1>do you deal with it? I want them to see

0:18:39.040 --> 0:18:42.240
<v Speaker 1>that part, but not so much to the football, because

0:18:42.240 --> 0:18:44.120
<v Speaker 1>like I said, it's YouTube. They can see that. I'm

0:18:44.119 --> 0:18:46.639
<v Speaker 1>all out YouTube. So I just wanted them to be

0:18:46.680 --> 0:18:51.200
<v Speaker 1>able to see the stuff I go through. And I

0:18:51.240 --> 0:18:53.960
<v Speaker 1>think if they would have seen that, they would have had,

0:18:54.080 --> 0:18:56.399
<v Speaker 1>like they want to play football in the NFL, right,

0:18:57.080 --> 0:18:58.840
<v Speaker 1>So I wanted them to have the whole game, at

0:18:58.880 --> 0:19:02.080
<v Speaker 1>the whole picture of what comes with that, so you

0:19:02.119 --> 0:19:04.119
<v Speaker 1>could really make a decision off what you've seen and

0:19:04.200 --> 0:19:06.920
<v Speaker 1>what you've learned from watching me go through it type

0:19:06.920 --> 0:19:08.919
<v Speaker 1>of thing. So, I mean, there's a lot of you know,

0:19:09.080 --> 0:19:10.560
<v Speaker 1>So that's the type of stuff I wish they would

0:19:10.600 --> 0:19:13.080
<v Speaker 1>have been around for. Well, the good news is is

0:19:13.119 --> 0:19:15.399
<v Speaker 1>your stories aren't going anywhere. You can tell them your

0:19:15.400 --> 0:19:18.320
<v Speaker 1>stories forever and so many lessons learned. But that that's

0:19:18.320 --> 0:19:23.120
<v Speaker 1>really well said. That's beautiful. Yea. You've made a few

0:19:23.160 --> 0:19:26.960
<v Speaker 1>tweets I've seen recently where you talked about that defenses

0:19:27.119 --> 0:19:31.879
<v Speaker 1>don't win championships. Can you elaborate on because that's the

0:19:32.760 --> 0:19:35.080
<v Speaker 1>that's the adage that we always hear in sports, is

0:19:35.119 --> 0:19:38.120
<v Speaker 1>that defense wins championships. What do you mean by that? Well,

0:19:38.200 --> 0:19:40.800
<v Speaker 1>when I asked, I said, the defense still win championships,

0:19:40.960 --> 0:19:44.119
<v Speaker 1>meaning these high scoring games you seem like who has

0:19:44.160 --> 0:19:46.960
<v Speaker 1>the last, who has the ball? Asked? These high school

0:19:47.000 --> 0:19:49.240
<v Speaker 1>games you've got you got a team and scored sixty

0:19:49.280 --> 0:19:51.480
<v Speaker 1>two and another team scored fifty eight points. In the

0:19:51.480 --> 0:19:54.720
<v Speaker 1>football game, that's the last person has the ball? Did

0:19:54.760 --> 0:19:57.040
<v Speaker 1>anybody get stopped the whole game? Is the defense even

0:19:57.080 --> 0:20:00.720
<v Speaker 1>relevant in today's football? Is it? I mean, they line

0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:02.800
<v Speaker 1>up in the spread, they're throwing the ball all around

0:20:02.800 --> 0:20:06.320
<v Speaker 1>the field, They're doing all of these different stuff they're adding,

0:20:06.320 --> 0:20:08.320
<v Speaker 1>they're putting all these points on the board really fast,

0:20:08.359 --> 0:20:12.119
<v Speaker 1>like really fast faced offense, and both teams run the

0:20:12.200 --> 0:20:14.639
<v Speaker 1>same thing, and they scoring all these points. Like the

0:20:14.800 --> 0:20:17.800
<v Speaker 1>defense really matters to this football doesn't really? There are

0:20:18.680 --> 0:20:20.840
<v Speaker 1>who when, who get the coin toss, and who get

0:20:20.880 --> 0:20:22.680
<v Speaker 1>the ball a half time, the differend on the game.

0:20:22.880 --> 0:20:25.280
<v Speaker 1>Who turns the ball over here? And then who drops,

0:20:25.280 --> 0:20:27.680
<v Speaker 1>who tips the ball into an accept and who fumbles it?

0:20:28.040 --> 0:20:30.440
<v Speaker 1>Stuff like that changed the game. I wouldn't necessarily say

0:20:30.480 --> 0:20:35.359
<v Speaker 1>that defense wins championships anymore. Wow, Has there anything changed

0:20:35.400 --> 0:20:39.840
<v Speaker 1>in the game that you can recognize that made that so? Well?

0:20:40.040 --> 0:20:42.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean, for a team that can put the ball

0:20:43.000 --> 0:20:45.560
<v Speaker 1>on the ground. Let's say, for instance, the Tennessee Titans

0:20:45.640 --> 0:20:48.800
<v Speaker 1>when they had Derrick Henry. No longer have Derrick Henry,

0:20:49.520 --> 0:20:52.000
<v Speaker 1>but when they had Derrick Henry. They wasn't putting up

0:20:52.080 --> 0:20:55.240
<v Speaker 1>these numbers. That was these crazy numbers, like, you know,

0:20:55.400 --> 0:20:57.879
<v Speaker 1>forty five fifty points. They wasn't putting those numbers up.

0:20:57.880 --> 0:21:01.159
<v Speaker 1>They was going, you know, already one point and stuff

0:21:01.200 --> 0:21:04.040
<v Speaker 1>like that. That's normal. That's the only normal football team

0:21:04.080 --> 0:21:05.879
<v Speaker 1>in the National Football League. You asked me to the

0:21:05.960 --> 0:21:08.240
<v Speaker 1>Tennessee Titans. That's why I like watching them play. But

0:21:09.040 --> 0:21:11.399
<v Speaker 1>when people started running the spread and running all this

0:21:11.520 --> 0:21:15.359
<v Speaker 1>West Coast motion and jets and screens to the outside

0:21:15.520 --> 0:21:18.959
<v Speaker 1>and dual threat quarterback, that kind of made everybody kind

0:21:19.000 --> 0:21:21.960
<v Speaker 1>of get away from the old fashioned running game. Right.

0:21:22.080 --> 0:21:26.359
<v Speaker 1>So the way those offenses came about is having the

0:21:26.400 --> 0:21:28.480
<v Speaker 1>bigger guys on the field on defense have to cover

0:21:28.600 --> 0:21:32.320
<v Speaker 1>a small wide receiver in the slot. So now, you know,

0:21:32.480 --> 0:21:34.800
<v Speaker 1>so what do they do. They go out and they

0:21:34.880 --> 0:21:37.440
<v Speaker 1>drive the outside linebacker that six ft three, six ft

0:21:37.440 --> 0:21:41.520
<v Speaker 1>fourteen pounds. There's nowhere in hell when I was playing

0:21:41.560 --> 0:21:43.359
<v Speaker 1>the guy two and in the fifteen pounds is gonna

0:21:43.359 --> 0:21:46.360
<v Speaker 1>stop me. It's just never gonna happen. But those guys

0:21:46.400 --> 0:21:49.000
<v Speaker 1>are effective now because they're not made to tackle. They're

0:21:49.040 --> 0:21:50.800
<v Speaker 1>not made to come up and hit. The league blockers

0:21:50.920 --> 0:21:52.600
<v Speaker 1>in the hole and stop the run. They're made to

0:21:52.680 --> 0:21:55.200
<v Speaker 1>go out blank out to the slot and cover the

0:21:55.240 --> 0:21:57.320
<v Speaker 1>stop wide receiver and have a part of the coverage

0:21:57.720 --> 0:22:00.640
<v Speaker 1>because they can run. They got sized, they got long arms.

0:22:00.920 --> 0:22:04.040
<v Speaker 1>So that's how they drafted guys do linebackers today? You know,

0:22:04.400 --> 0:22:07.280
<v Speaker 1>they drafted fast, smaller defensive endage. That's like six two

0:22:07.400 --> 0:22:10.760
<v Speaker 1>six three, two hundred and forty pounds. That's using speed

0:22:10.840 --> 0:22:12.560
<v Speaker 1>to get up till to get to the quarterback. Those

0:22:12.600 --> 0:22:15.000
<v Speaker 1>guys aren't stopping the run. Those guys aren't going to

0:22:15.040 --> 0:22:16.879
<v Speaker 1>stop a pulling guard from kicking them out. They're not

0:22:16.960 --> 0:22:20.480
<v Speaker 1>going to stop that. So Tennessee Titans have stuck to

0:22:20.560 --> 0:22:23.320
<v Speaker 1>that game plan from the nineties in the early two thousand's,

0:22:23.640 --> 0:22:26.080
<v Speaker 1>which is why they had been successful in the last

0:22:26.640 --> 0:22:29.639
<v Speaker 1>couple of years. But it makes teams draft different. It

0:22:29.760 --> 0:22:32.280
<v Speaker 1>makes teams draft different by the way they're playing off

0:22:32.320 --> 0:22:35.560
<v Speaker 1>and especially for defense. Wow, Okay, you mentioned you're a

0:22:35.640 --> 0:22:37.760
<v Speaker 1>high school coach. Now are you the head coach or oc?

0:22:39.040 --> 0:22:41.720
<v Speaker 1>I am the assistant head coach, and our coached the

0:22:41.800 --> 0:22:44.520
<v Speaker 1>running backs at St. Francis High School, a really small

0:22:44.560 --> 0:22:47.240
<v Speaker 1>private school in Alpharetta, Georgia. We just lost the first

0:22:47.359 --> 0:22:51.680
<v Speaker 1>round of playoffs on Saturday. That was our first time

0:22:51.800 --> 0:22:54.080
<v Speaker 1>having hosted the home playoff game in school history. So

0:22:54.200 --> 0:22:55.639
<v Speaker 1>we're going up for men. I think we're gonna win

0:22:55.640 --> 0:22:58.320
<v Speaker 1>the state championship the next three years. Well, I like

0:22:58.480 --> 0:23:00.560
<v Speaker 1>that that you're giving me Friday night light vibes. I'm

0:23:00.600 --> 0:23:03.480
<v Speaker 1>loving it. I would think coming from your position that

0:23:03.960 --> 0:23:06.879
<v Speaker 1>dealing with high school talent and no disrespect to your guys,

0:23:07.240 --> 0:23:09.720
<v Speaker 1>that would be really infuriating when you're playing with the

0:23:09.760 --> 0:23:12.920
<v Speaker 1>best of the best at every position. Yeah, but you know, like,

0:23:14.040 --> 0:23:15.879
<v Speaker 1>I think in our region we kind of have that.

0:23:17.200 --> 0:23:19.080
<v Speaker 1>I think I think in our region, the region that

0:23:19.160 --> 0:23:21.240
<v Speaker 1>we're in, I think we got the best quarterback. I

0:23:21.240 --> 0:23:22.840
<v Speaker 1>think about the best running backs. I think we've got

0:23:22.880 --> 0:23:25.320
<v Speaker 1>the best officer line. I think about the best players period.

0:23:25.840 --> 0:23:30.560
<v Speaker 1>Here's the issue. They're fourteen years old. Yeah, they have

0:23:30.680 --> 0:23:32.639
<v Speaker 1>to go out and compete against eighteen year old So

0:23:32.800 --> 0:23:34.280
<v Speaker 1>we had a we had a rough season. We went

0:23:34.359 --> 0:23:36.200
<v Speaker 1>five and five. We lost the first five games, that

0:23:36.280 --> 0:23:38.840
<v Speaker 1>came back and ripped off five straight in our region

0:23:39.440 --> 0:23:41.960
<v Speaker 1>and when got a second that we took second in

0:23:42.000 --> 0:23:45.399
<v Speaker 1>the region and ended up getting home playoff game. And

0:23:45.680 --> 0:23:50.520
<v Speaker 1>I think because we had eighteen freshman seventeen eighteen freshman

0:23:50.680 --> 0:23:52.480
<v Speaker 1>team or twelve, and there were those guys were starting

0:23:52.880 --> 0:23:56.960
<v Speaker 1>out of party players. We're only losing. We have four scenes.

0:23:57.080 --> 0:23:59.480
<v Speaker 1>Two of them really played, so we wanted losing two

0:23:59.560 --> 0:24:02.040
<v Speaker 1>guys coming in the next year. And we've got the

0:24:02.480 --> 0:24:05.159
<v Speaker 1>same young team that we're bringing back. We got two

0:24:05.240 --> 0:24:07.280
<v Speaker 1>top office alignment and that that got office from all

0:24:07.400 --> 0:24:10.440
<v Speaker 1>kinds of people. And we're just gonna keep building and

0:24:10.520 --> 0:24:12.280
<v Speaker 1>like January come, we're gonna hit the weight room. We're

0:24:12.280 --> 0:24:14.199
<v Speaker 1>gonna get stronger, we're gonna get faster, we're gonna get

0:24:14.240 --> 0:24:15.879
<v Speaker 1>after it. We're gonna I want to see how I

0:24:15.960 --> 0:24:18.520
<v Speaker 1>want to see how bad they wanted. Boy, you already

0:24:18.560 --> 0:24:20.960
<v Speaker 1>sound like a coach. He's something you've been doing this

0:24:21.119 --> 0:24:23.480
<v Speaker 1>for years. Well, this is my fourth year coach in

0:24:23.520 --> 0:24:25.800
<v Speaker 1>high school football. This from my fourth year. I love it.

0:24:25.880 --> 0:24:27.840
<v Speaker 1>I love it. I got a great head coach, coach

0:24:27.880 --> 0:24:31.320
<v Speaker 1>Frank bar And um, great guy, older guy. You know,

0:24:31.480 --> 0:24:34.399
<v Speaker 1>he's an old fashioned guy. So I'm the bridge between

0:24:34.480 --> 0:24:38.240
<v Speaker 1>him and the kids. I'm the bridge he thinks you

0:24:38.320 --> 0:24:40.200
<v Speaker 1>gotta do this and to do it on our coach. Okay,

0:24:41.119 --> 0:24:43.920
<v Speaker 1>hold on, these guys are different, it's a different error.

0:24:44.119 --> 0:24:47.639
<v Speaker 1>Let's go at it like this. Yeah, you're important, and

0:24:47.800 --> 0:24:49.640
<v Speaker 1>we worked together on it. You know, I'm like, he's

0:24:49.680 --> 0:24:54.359
<v Speaker 1>more coach Coughlin, right, you know, so I'm the bridge,

0:24:54.520 --> 0:24:57.280
<v Speaker 1>so I kind of tell them what coach expected. You remember,

0:24:57.359 --> 0:25:00.520
<v Speaker 1>head coach, we worked pretty good together. Speaking of Coughlin,

0:25:00.960 --> 0:25:03.040
<v Speaker 1>as everyone knows, you were part of the two of

0:25:03.080 --> 0:25:05.560
<v Speaker 1>the most exciting Super Bowls ever came out on top.

0:25:06.160 --> 0:25:11.119
<v Speaker 1>He seemed to have Belichick's number. What was it that

0:25:12.200 --> 0:25:16.960
<v Speaker 1>Tom Coughlin prepared? Like, what was it in the preparation?

0:25:17.240 --> 0:25:22.760
<v Speaker 1>How was he able to take down that goliath two years? Well?

0:25:23.920 --> 0:25:27.920
<v Speaker 1>Discipline and toughness, right, and what we knew the Patriots

0:25:27.960 --> 0:25:31.159
<v Speaker 1>had the discipline, they had that what they did not

0:25:31.280 --> 0:25:35.520
<v Speaker 1>have the toughness. Wow, And Coach Coughlin would always say,

0:25:35.680 --> 0:25:37.600
<v Speaker 1>look at the guys that throw the ball all around.

0:25:38.080 --> 0:25:40.760
<v Speaker 1>Nobody hit him in their mouth. Why receiving the catching

0:25:40.800 --> 0:25:43.120
<v Speaker 1>the ball fall into the ground and they're touching them.

0:25:43.520 --> 0:25:45.879
<v Speaker 1>How about somebody spear his ass when he goes down. Now,

0:25:45.880 --> 0:25:48.240
<v Speaker 1>how about somebody to do that. How about somebody laid

0:25:48.280 --> 0:25:50.479
<v Speaker 1>some helmet and show the pads on somebody out there. Hey,

0:25:50.560 --> 0:25:52.399
<v Speaker 1>let's get Tom Brady thinking if he really want to

0:25:52.480 --> 0:25:54.760
<v Speaker 1>drop back and throw the football, hit him at all

0:25:54.840 --> 0:25:57.560
<v Speaker 1>calls any opportunity to get to hit him, hit him,

0:25:58.040 --> 0:26:01.080
<v Speaker 1>hit him, cut the office a linement down like stuff

0:26:01.119 --> 0:26:03.440
<v Speaker 1>like that, create a whole like toughness. So that's what

0:26:03.600 --> 0:26:05.439
<v Speaker 1>we did. We went out there and we hit him.

0:26:05.520 --> 0:26:07.160
<v Speaker 1>We hit him and hit him, We bumped into him

0:26:07.160 --> 0:26:08.920
<v Speaker 1>after the place, we pushed him. We talked on as

0:26:08.960 --> 0:26:10.879
<v Speaker 1>soon we did all of that. So I think it

0:26:11.000 --> 0:26:13.760
<v Speaker 1>was more like more like putting our toughness down and

0:26:13.880 --> 0:26:16.920
<v Speaker 1>more intimidating because there was the head hunter of the NFL, like,

0:26:17.200 --> 0:26:19.439
<v Speaker 1>who's gonna talk and treat the Patriots this way? Oh

0:26:19.520 --> 0:26:22.879
<v Speaker 1>my god, I dare they had to do that to

0:26:23.000 --> 0:26:26.080
<v Speaker 1>the Patriots, right, So we didn't care about that. We

0:26:26.160 --> 0:26:27.600
<v Speaker 1>didn't care about that. We we just know we had

0:26:27.600 --> 0:26:29.560
<v Speaker 1>to go out and be tougher than him. We had

0:26:29.560 --> 0:26:32.600
<v Speaker 1>to get about the ground every time. Did you ever

0:26:32.640 --> 0:26:37.080
<v Speaker 1>try to kick a field goal between Michael Strahan's Keith? No? Never.

0:26:39.840 --> 0:26:42.359
<v Speaker 1>I never tried to do that. But the money that

0:26:42.640 --> 0:26:48.440
<v Speaker 1>gap has made that man is crazy. It's crazy like

0:26:48.560 --> 0:26:51.000
<v Speaker 1>that that like that dude, it was born with a

0:26:51.280 --> 0:26:55.720
<v Speaker 1>with a with a bank yeah, and not. It's just

0:26:55.840 --> 0:26:58.520
<v Speaker 1>the gap when Straighthand is one of the Straighthand is

0:26:58.560 --> 0:27:03.560
<v Speaker 1>the astronomical man, great leader. He's busted as to be

0:27:03.640 --> 0:27:08.399
<v Speaker 1>where he is. He's gotten everything he deserved going. We

0:27:08.480 --> 0:27:10.560
<v Speaker 1>went through a lot of stuff early on, and he's

0:27:10.600 --> 0:27:12.720
<v Speaker 1>just bounced back from it. Man. I mean, straight hand

0:27:12.840 --> 0:27:16.240
<v Speaker 1>is the epitome of that dude. You know he is

0:27:16.359 --> 0:27:21.240
<v Speaker 1>that dude. Yeah, Yeah, I'm really fascinated by Michael Strahan.

0:27:21.320 --> 0:27:23.840
<v Speaker 1>I listened to him anytime he's on another podcast because

0:27:23.840 --> 0:27:26.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure when the man sleeps with his g

0:27:26.280 --> 0:27:29.560
<v Speaker 1>m A obligations, hopping back forth, coast to coast, his

0:27:29.960 --> 0:27:32.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, suit line, all of this, And I mean,

0:27:32.680 --> 0:27:34.679
<v Speaker 1>what was he like back in the day as a player,

0:27:34.880 --> 0:27:37.720
<v Speaker 1>Like do you think as an entrepreneur and media personality,

0:27:37.800 --> 0:27:40.359
<v Speaker 1>it's even dialed up sharper than ever. Was he always

0:27:40.440 --> 0:27:44.200
<v Speaker 1>like this? He was always like this? But I'm not sure.

0:27:44.520 --> 0:27:46.920
<v Speaker 1>I can't I'm not I can't tell you whether he

0:27:47.040 --> 0:27:48.840
<v Speaker 1>was working on this stuff when he was playing or not.

0:27:49.520 --> 0:27:52.159
<v Speaker 1>Because he was dedicated to us. Yeah, he gave us

0:27:52.240 --> 0:27:55.000
<v Speaker 1>him for three years. He gave us him every week,

0:27:55.160 --> 0:27:57.240
<v Speaker 1>gave us him, gave us everything he had so I'm

0:27:57.280 --> 0:27:59.320
<v Speaker 1>not sure if he had anything extra going on at

0:27:59.359 --> 0:28:02.080
<v Speaker 1>that time, maybe has some stuff set up to jump

0:28:02.200 --> 0:28:05.720
<v Speaker 1>right into. But he gave he gave us him. He

0:28:05.840 --> 0:28:08.560
<v Speaker 1>gave us the guy we needed. So, like I said,

0:28:08.960 --> 0:28:11.240
<v Speaker 1>and if he was doing all of that while giving

0:28:11.320 --> 0:28:12.960
<v Speaker 1>us the guy we needed, the straight hand that we

0:28:13.080 --> 0:28:16.000
<v Speaker 1>need it. And he's always have been busy. No, I

0:28:16.080 --> 0:28:17.879
<v Speaker 1>think the least busy he ever was was when he

0:28:17.960 --> 0:28:21.960
<v Speaker 1>was playing football. The man is crazy busy now right right,

0:28:22.119 --> 0:28:24.640
<v Speaker 1>So he's earned everything he's getting. You mean, a guy

0:28:24.760 --> 0:28:26.200
<v Speaker 1>that's that's kind of who I want to be. Like.

0:28:26.680 --> 0:28:29.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, I started doing this stuff with ESPN this year,

0:28:29.600 --> 0:28:32.080
<v Speaker 1>calling college games and stuff like that. I was hoping

0:28:32.119 --> 0:28:34.640
<v Speaker 1>I get another opportunity next year. I want to start

0:28:34.680 --> 0:28:37.040
<v Speaker 1>my own podcast. I got all this equipment right here

0:28:37.080 --> 0:28:39.040
<v Speaker 1>in my basement right now, and I just never happened

0:28:39.040 --> 0:28:42.920
<v Speaker 1>to come down and set up anything, light, uh, speakers, uh,

0:28:43.520 --> 0:28:46.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, like everything to set up for my podcast.

0:28:46.960 --> 0:28:50.520
<v Speaker 1>I just just procrastinating. I guess yeah, you'll you'll get

0:28:50.560 --> 0:28:52.640
<v Speaker 1>around to it. You're a busy man too. I wanted

0:28:52.680 --> 0:28:54.760
<v Speaker 1>to ask you about calling college football games. I've been

0:28:54.800 --> 0:28:57.000
<v Speaker 1>at ESPN last five years doing the same as a

0:28:57.000 --> 0:29:00.200
<v Speaker 1>sideline reporter. And this year I'm only doing that CC

0:29:00.360 --> 0:29:02.520
<v Speaker 1>Championship and I'm really really looking forward to that. I

0:29:02.600 --> 0:29:05.200
<v Speaker 1>went to Georgia. But what people don't realize about a

0:29:05.280 --> 0:29:08.120
<v Speaker 1>game broadcast, and I'm curious if you didn't know this

0:29:08.280 --> 0:29:11.560
<v Speaker 1>until you got into it, is all the people it

0:29:11.720 --> 0:29:14.760
<v Speaker 1>takes to put this thing on air and all of

0:29:14.840 --> 0:29:17.680
<v Speaker 1>the prep it takes all week to put this thing

0:29:17.800 --> 0:29:20.640
<v Speaker 1>on air. What were your biggest surprises when you finally

0:29:20.680 --> 0:29:23.640
<v Speaker 1>got in the booth and did it, realizing how easy

0:29:23.680 --> 0:29:26.600
<v Speaker 1>it really was because they've given you all of this information, right,

0:29:27.440 --> 0:29:32.760
<v Speaker 1>And when I was watching looking for don't tell I'm

0:29:32.760 --> 0:29:36.280
<v Speaker 1>gonna get that, I'm gonna get that promise, give it

0:29:37.000 --> 0:29:42.440
<v Speaker 1>these cards and stuff with every player and bold on it. Yeah,

0:29:42.920 --> 0:29:45.560
<v Speaker 1>that's for the season. You know what they did last

0:29:45.600 --> 0:29:48.080
<v Speaker 1>week and it's right here on the table in front

0:29:48.120 --> 0:29:50.000
<v Speaker 1>of you and not me, and the broadcasting both I'm

0:29:50.000 --> 0:29:52.720
<v Speaker 1>not seeing on TV until then from the beginning to

0:29:52.840 --> 0:29:55.400
<v Speaker 1>half time, right and maybe the end of the game,

0:29:56.160 --> 0:29:57.800
<v Speaker 1>so I can sit there and read and rip this

0:29:57.840 --> 0:30:01.320
<v Speaker 1>stuff off. Rip this stuff off. Now. The difficult part

0:30:01.400 --> 0:30:04.320
<v Speaker 1>that I did not know happen. The men in the truck.

0:30:05.160 --> 0:30:07.520
<v Speaker 1>The men in the truck. Now, for us, when I

0:30:07.560 --> 0:30:09.280
<v Speaker 1>did the two games that Texas Tech, we didn't have

0:30:09.360 --> 0:30:11.920
<v Speaker 1>the man in the truck. Our broadcasting was off site.

0:30:12.240 --> 0:30:15.360
<v Speaker 1>There was in so that created a little bit of

0:30:15.400 --> 0:30:18.440
<v Speaker 1>a delay from the TV to us talking. So we

0:30:18.520 --> 0:30:22.440
<v Speaker 1>have to wait. And all these different buttons that you

0:30:22.520 --> 0:30:26.560
<v Speaker 1>have to press for replay, play bad your your cough button,

0:30:26.600 --> 0:30:29.840
<v Speaker 1>you press your cough like, all kinds of different stuff.

0:30:29.880 --> 0:30:31.920
<v Speaker 1>I had like ten different people in my head says

0:30:31.960 --> 0:30:34.360
<v Speaker 1>telling me, Okay, Brandon, you talk about this when we

0:30:34.440 --> 0:30:37.160
<v Speaker 1>come off of commercial. Are talk about that play when

0:30:37.200 --> 0:30:39.479
<v Speaker 1>we come out of commercial. Go back and look at

0:30:39.560 --> 0:30:42.440
<v Speaker 1>this and which angle you wanted? Well, I wanted at

0:30:42.480 --> 0:30:45.040
<v Speaker 1>the end zone, shot behind the defense. It was a

0:30:45.120 --> 0:30:47.560
<v Speaker 1>passing touchdown, so I need to see and be able

0:30:47.560 --> 0:30:50.800
<v Speaker 1>to analyze how that touchdown came in the passing game

0:30:50.840 --> 0:30:53.040
<v Speaker 1>to break down in the coverage, so I needed behind

0:30:53.080 --> 0:30:55.240
<v Speaker 1>the defense. So they're giving you all of this stuff,

0:30:55.280 --> 0:30:57.440
<v Speaker 1>and you gotta ask for this stuff while the game's

0:30:57.480 --> 0:30:59.240
<v Speaker 1>going on, and you gotta press all these different buttons

0:30:59.280 --> 0:31:01.800
<v Speaker 1>and all these different people talking to you. It's crazy

0:31:01.800 --> 0:31:03.880
<v Speaker 1>that the amount of people that it takes to be

0:31:03.960 --> 0:31:06.080
<v Speaker 1>able to do that in all of these games on TV,

0:31:06.520 --> 0:31:08.720
<v Speaker 1>they got to have a bunch of people working because

0:31:09.280 --> 0:31:12.040
<v Speaker 1>I mean I probably had we probably had about ten

0:31:12.160 --> 0:31:15.400
<v Speaker 1>or fifteen different guys working out. Again, that's just one game.

0:31:16.280 --> 0:31:19.040
<v Speaker 1>It's one game. So that's a small crew. Yeah, that's

0:31:19.240 --> 0:31:21.480
<v Speaker 1>that's a small crew. So think about all the other games,

0:31:22.560 --> 0:31:24.280
<v Speaker 1>all the other games that they may have that may

0:31:24.360 --> 0:31:27.160
<v Speaker 1>be dirty guys thirty five guys working in. So it's

0:31:27.160 --> 0:31:29.040
<v Speaker 1>a lot of work, you know. But what I meant

0:31:29.080 --> 0:31:31.160
<v Speaker 1>easy is it's like to give you the information to

0:31:31.280 --> 0:31:33.600
<v Speaker 1>talk about. So that's so that's just about it. But

0:31:33.680 --> 0:31:36.120
<v Speaker 1>I really enjoyed it, and I wish, um, you know,

0:31:36.240 --> 0:31:39.280
<v Speaker 1>coming around the next year I get another opportunity. Yeah.

0:31:39.440 --> 0:31:41.640
<v Speaker 1>So I never got those cards with all the stats

0:31:41.680 --> 0:31:43.880
<v Speaker 1>on it. I always had to do my own. You're

0:31:43.880 --> 0:31:46.360
<v Speaker 1>a sideline reporter, though, Like you're a sideline person, Like

0:31:46.480 --> 0:31:50.120
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna be on TV and stuff like that. You're

0:31:50.120 --> 0:31:53.880
<v Speaker 1>gonna get information from you know, just doing like before

0:31:53.920 --> 0:31:55.840
<v Speaker 1>the game and half time and put them on life

0:31:55.960 --> 0:31:58.960
<v Speaker 1>like that. Your job is kind of hard. It's hard.

0:31:58.960 --> 0:32:00.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't think I can do your Some would say

0:32:00.880 --> 0:32:07.640
<v Speaker 1>it's really hard. I think you're honestly just letting this

0:32:07.760 --> 0:32:11.479
<v Speaker 1>episode is. Yeah, I think I'm gonna be I think

0:32:11.480 --> 0:32:14.880
<v Speaker 1>I want to be a sports reporter after this. Anyone

0:32:14.960 --> 0:32:17.840
<v Speaker 1>can do it. I'm gonna stop doing comedy. I'm gonna

0:32:17.880 --> 0:32:19.920
<v Speaker 1>be a sports reporter. Make sure you go in to booth.

0:32:20.280 --> 0:32:26.960
<v Speaker 1>That not easy. Yeah, let me ask you before we

0:32:27.040 --> 0:32:29.640
<v Speaker 1>get to uh giants questions, because we got a few

0:32:29.680 --> 0:32:32.760
<v Speaker 1>of those. But you mentioned Derrick Henry. You guys were

0:32:33.200 --> 0:32:38.280
<v Speaker 1>too big, fast, bruising backs. If it was between you

0:32:38.400 --> 0:32:40.840
<v Speaker 1>and him and you were in a sumo wrestling contest,

0:32:41.120 --> 0:32:44.720
<v Speaker 1>who's pushing who out more, who's winning? Who's winning between

0:32:44.800 --> 0:32:50.480
<v Speaker 1>you and Derrick Henry, Well, I gotta be honest, I

0:32:50.600 --> 0:32:54.600
<v Speaker 1>think he would win. Here's why I think he's tougher

0:32:54.640 --> 0:32:56.200
<v Speaker 1>than me, because I don't think that's the case. But

0:32:57.320 --> 0:33:00.000
<v Speaker 1>he trains like no one I've ever seen in my life.

0:33:01.280 --> 0:33:03.320
<v Speaker 1>I've never trained like that. I've never did some of

0:33:03.360 --> 0:33:05.560
<v Speaker 1>the things he does, the type of training he does.

0:33:05.640 --> 0:33:07.840
<v Speaker 1>You know what, you know what My training was making

0:33:07.840 --> 0:33:10.480
<v Speaker 1>sure I had goodwin, make sure I was strong. I

0:33:10.520 --> 0:33:13.240
<v Speaker 1>didn't run up hills with resistance. I didn't have a weight,

0:33:13.320 --> 0:33:16.080
<v Speaker 1>best song, jumping over stuff. I wasn't doing the type

0:33:16.120 --> 0:33:18.400
<v Speaker 1>of stuff that he's doing to get ready for a season.

0:33:18.440 --> 0:33:19.920
<v Speaker 1>I was just making sure I was in shape and

0:33:20.000 --> 0:33:22.120
<v Speaker 1>my weight was down and make sure I was strong.

0:33:22.960 --> 0:33:25.480
<v Speaker 1>So I gotta give him the edge when it comes

0:33:25.680 --> 0:33:30.920
<v Speaker 1>to that. Now, boxing wise, wouldn't he be close? You

0:33:31.040 --> 0:33:34.960
<v Speaker 1>tag him up, you touch him, you stretch. He probably stronger,

0:33:35.640 --> 0:33:38.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, have leverage because I'm installer than him. So

0:33:38.960 --> 0:33:40.880
<v Speaker 1>I'll give him to some more wrestling match. I'll give

0:33:40.960 --> 0:33:43.120
<v Speaker 1>him that one. I'll give him that one. All right,

0:33:46.080 --> 0:33:49.840
<v Speaker 1>Let's talk Giants and those Super Bowls because just for me,

0:33:50.200 --> 0:33:53.000
<v Speaker 1>it really is nice to think about. It was beautiful.

0:33:53.600 --> 0:33:57.440
<v Speaker 1>They were the two biggest upsets maybe you know of

0:33:57.600 --> 0:34:00.760
<v Speaker 1>all time. What were some of your favorite moments in

0:34:00.880 --> 0:34:04.880
<v Speaker 1>those games leading up to the game. When like right

0:34:04.920 --> 0:34:06.600
<v Speaker 1>away in the first Super Bowl when we beat the

0:34:06.640 --> 0:34:10.000
<v Speaker 1>Packers in the NFC Championship game, the fun stuff started

0:34:10.040 --> 0:34:13.120
<v Speaker 1>to come started getting all this information about Super Bowl,

0:34:13.880 --> 0:34:17.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, having a go and stay in Arizona full

0:34:17.600 --> 0:34:22.200
<v Speaker 1>week and use Arizona Cardinals facilities, and you know, so

0:34:22.400 --> 0:34:24.879
<v Speaker 1>on and so forth. That that stuff was really fun.

0:34:25.040 --> 0:34:27.960
<v Speaker 1>But coming leading up to the week and you know,

0:34:28.239 --> 0:34:32.839
<v Speaker 1>going through practicing and everybody's excited and you know, coming

0:34:32.880 --> 0:34:36.040
<v Speaker 1>out to the game, these interviews these guys started doing,

0:34:36.320 --> 0:34:39.880
<v Speaker 1>and you know Tom Brady talking and Randy Moss talking

0:34:39.960 --> 0:34:42.560
<v Speaker 1>and Practical Birds doing his thing. It made it so

0:34:42.719 --> 0:34:45.040
<v Speaker 1>much fun for me because I was that guy who

0:34:45.120 --> 0:34:47.400
<v Speaker 1>was talking. So okay, I've got other people talking. Oh,

0:34:47.520 --> 0:34:49.840
<v Speaker 1>it's about to be fun, you know. But the Super

0:34:49.880 --> 0:34:53.320
<v Speaker 1>Bowls were no question, man, that's one of the greatest

0:34:53.360 --> 0:34:55.359
<v Speaker 1>times in my life. You know, going through the week,

0:34:55.560 --> 0:34:58.920
<v Speaker 1>just spending time with your teammates off site from your

0:34:59.040 --> 0:35:03.600
<v Speaker 1>regular facility, going around Phoenix, you know, has just haden fun. Man.

0:35:03.680 --> 0:35:06.600
<v Speaker 1>It just you know, knowing you you you got this

0:35:06.800 --> 0:35:09.080
<v Speaker 1>mission that you have to complete, you know, and it

0:35:09.200 --> 0:35:10.800
<v Speaker 1>was it was awesome, man, it was. It was. It

0:35:10.920 --> 0:35:13.440
<v Speaker 1>was a time in my life that probably a lot

0:35:13.480 --> 0:35:16.840
<v Speaker 1>of people won't ever be able to experience. That's incredible.

0:35:16.920 --> 0:35:18.719
<v Speaker 1>I know we talked about straight hand. I also wanted

0:35:18.719 --> 0:35:21.359
<v Speaker 1>to ask you about another teammate, Eli Manning. I'm sure

0:35:21.360 --> 0:35:23.360
<v Speaker 1>a lot of your high school players ask you about

0:35:23.400 --> 0:35:26.480
<v Speaker 1>Eli or the Mannings in general. What was Eli like

0:35:26.800 --> 0:35:29.319
<v Speaker 1>in the huddle and what was he like super Bowl Week?

0:35:30.200 --> 0:35:32.719
<v Speaker 1>Eli in the huddle, he's you know, he's a guy

0:35:32.880 --> 0:35:36.160
<v Speaker 1>that comes in hey man, okay, let's go no mistakes.

0:35:36.200 --> 0:35:38.239
<v Speaker 1>There's minimized the mistakes and tunnel overs. Let's just do

0:35:38.320 --> 0:35:40.040
<v Speaker 1>what we need to do. Everybody to do their job,

0:35:40.680 --> 0:35:42.680
<v Speaker 1>and we're gonna win the game. Right. If everybody to

0:35:42.680 --> 0:35:44.719
<v Speaker 1>do what they're supposed to do on every play, we

0:35:44.840 --> 0:35:46.520
<v Speaker 1>don't win the game. Right, That's the way it goes.

0:35:47.280 --> 0:35:49.440
<v Speaker 1>Eli was a guy was kind of called calm, low

0:35:49.560 --> 0:35:52.640
<v Speaker 1>key demeanor. He wasn't that vocal leader unless he was pissed,

0:35:53.120 --> 0:35:55.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, and that's somebody just keep doing something wrong.

0:35:55.800 --> 0:35:58.000
<v Speaker 1>Like he got on me one time I missed a

0:35:58.080 --> 0:36:02.319
<v Speaker 1>blitz and practice and I'm like, all right, I got

0:36:02.400 --> 0:36:04.960
<v Speaker 1>your a goot your goot, you bro. It kind of

0:36:05.000 --> 0:36:08.040
<v Speaker 1>discussed coverage a little bit on that Sunday I missed

0:36:08.040 --> 0:36:12.800
<v Speaker 1>the same blitz. Man. He went on like he was

0:36:13.000 --> 0:36:14.960
<v Speaker 1>like he didn't do mean like he didn't to me,

0:36:15.160 --> 0:36:17.520
<v Speaker 1>my person, you know, my character at all, but he

0:36:17.680 --> 0:36:20.320
<v Speaker 1>just made sure I knew that he was upset with me.

0:36:21.320 --> 0:36:24.439
<v Speaker 1>And Eli, like I said, he's a quiet leader. He's

0:36:24.440 --> 0:36:27.080
<v Speaker 1>a quiet leader. He don't say much. He gave that

0:36:27.239 --> 0:36:29.840
<v Speaker 1>to me. I was the vocal leader. I was emotional

0:36:29.960 --> 0:36:33.360
<v Speaker 1>leader of the team because that's just what, you know,

0:36:33.719 --> 0:36:36.080
<v Speaker 1>just what it was like after Straighthand left. He didn't

0:36:36.120 --> 0:36:38.920
<v Speaker 1>have that vocal guy and I kind of took that over.

0:36:39.160 --> 0:36:42.960
<v Speaker 1>So but Elies, Uh, this calm guy. You want to

0:36:43.040 --> 0:36:44.920
<v Speaker 1>think straight? You know, he ain't got time for the

0:36:45.040 --> 0:36:46.680
<v Speaker 1>rale row. I ain't got time for none of that.

0:36:46.800 --> 0:36:48.520
<v Speaker 1>You guys go over there and do the rod. I

0:36:48.600 --> 0:36:50.399
<v Speaker 1>go get this clipboard and see what we got next.

0:36:51.040 --> 0:36:54.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, Yes, he's an awesome guy like me when

0:36:54.680 --> 0:36:57.120
<v Speaker 1>my personality, I don't think I could have played with

0:36:57.160 --> 0:36:59.320
<v Speaker 1>any other quarterback other than Eli. I couldn't play with

0:36:59.360 --> 0:37:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Philip Rivers, right. I couldn't play with a guy like that, right,

0:37:02.760 --> 0:37:06.439
<v Speaker 1>because I'm seeing him grab his teammates us even push

0:37:06.440 --> 0:37:08.719
<v Speaker 1>your teammates to underste him, do all of that. I'm

0:37:08.760 --> 0:37:12.200
<v Speaker 1>not cough of that. So he lies demeanor was perfect

0:37:12.280 --> 0:37:15.319
<v Speaker 1>for me to have as a teammates. And why wow,

0:37:15.320 --> 0:37:17.440
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't pick no other person to play to be

0:37:17.560 --> 0:37:20.560
<v Speaker 1>my quarterback other than him. What do you think of

0:37:20.600 --> 0:37:23.120
<v Speaker 1>the Manning cast? And is the curse reel? Because every

0:37:23.160 --> 0:37:25.239
<v Speaker 1>player that goes on their team loses the next week.

0:37:25.960 --> 0:37:27.800
<v Speaker 1>They're all the new Madden, they say, they're all the

0:37:27.840 --> 0:37:32.719
<v Speaker 1>new Madden cover. But I think that show is hilarious.

0:37:33.280 --> 0:37:34.719
<v Speaker 1>People keep telling me that I need to try to

0:37:34.760 --> 0:37:37.080
<v Speaker 1>get on that show. Yeah, I'm like, well, it's gotta

0:37:37.120 --> 0:37:39.120
<v Speaker 1>be somebody that they want on the show. They gotta

0:37:39.239 --> 0:37:40.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, I can't just say, hey, let me know,

0:37:40.960 --> 0:37:42.520
<v Speaker 1>let me get on, like people think that I could

0:37:42.520 --> 0:37:45.520
<v Speaker 1>just make these calls and just make stuff happen. In case,

0:37:46.040 --> 0:37:48.319
<v Speaker 1>I think the show is hilarious and I think they're

0:37:48.320 --> 0:37:50.440
<v Speaker 1>doing an awesome job, and I think they definitely have

0:37:51.120 --> 0:37:54.000
<v Speaker 1>some longevity with that show for years to come. I

0:37:54.080 --> 0:37:56.080
<v Speaker 1>think they'll be out there and they'll have a lot

0:37:56.120 --> 0:38:00.359
<v Speaker 1>of views. I love watching them Giants coming up at

0:38:01.239 --> 0:38:05.080
<v Speaker 1>your old nemesis, the box they're about to play. Do

0:38:05.239 --> 0:38:09.080
<v Speaker 1>the Giants have a chance well this coming week. Well,

0:38:09.200 --> 0:38:11.160
<v Speaker 1>from the looks of things right now, I think Temple

0:38:11.239 --> 0:38:15.239
<v Speaker 1>drop their last two and I'm not sure if the

0:38:15.400 --> 0:38:18.759
<v Speaker 1>Giants have won their last two, So I'm not quite

0:38:18.840 --> 0:38:21.839
<v Speaker 1>sure if Tamplin is going to be in the mind

0:38:21.920 --> 0:38:24.000
<v Speaker 1>frame of an easy game or not because of the

0:38:24.040 --> 0:38:26.840
<v Speaker 1>Giants record and how they started this season. But I

0:38:27.080 --> 0:38:30.520
<v Speaker 1>do definitely think if we can move the ball offensively

0:38:30.600 --> 0:38:33.200
<v Speaker 1>on the ground, I think we've got a chance to

0:38:33.280 --> 0:38:35.759
<v Speaker 1>win outside because I don't think I don't think there's

0:38:35.800 --> 0:38:38.600
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people. I mean there's all I receiver

0:38:38.719 --> 0:38:41.239
<v Speaker 1>still hurt. I don't know if Sterling is. But I

0:38:41.320 --> 0:38:44.320
<v Speaker 1>saw running back Quan's practicing this week. And the Giants

0:38:44.360 --> 0:38:46.440
<v Speaker 1>are fresh off of bye and they beat the Raiders

0:38:46.480 --> 0:38:48.520
<v Speaker 1>the week before, so a little momentum in you, a

0:38:48.600 --> 0:38:51.759
<v Speaker 1>little momentum. They went down to the wall. They want

0:38:51.760 --> 0:38:53.359
<v Speaker 1>two in or own anything. Went down to the wire

0:38:53.440 --> 0:38:56.400
<v Speaker 1>with Kansas City, Yeah they did. Which Who's a really

0:38:56.480 --> 0:38:58.920
<v Speaker 1>good football team and I'm not sure what's wrong with

0:38:59.040 --> 0:39:02.000
<v Speaker 1>their team right now this point, but really good talented

0:39:02.040 --> 0:39:03.680
<v Speaker 1>football team who played in the Super Bowl the last

0:39:03.719 --> 0:39:06.560
<v Speaker 1>two years. I think the Giants. I think they played

0:39:06.600 --> 0:39:09.560
<v Speaker 1>with them pretty well. I think they could be Tampa

0:39:09.600 --> 0:39:12.040
<v Speaker 1>and they can get Brady on the ground, right, I

0:39:12.120 --> 0:39:13.920
<v Speaker 1>think they can get Tom Brady on the ground. I

0:39:14.040 --> 0:39:16.560
<v Speaker 1>think we'll be okay. He's been throwing a ton of

0:39:16.640 --> 0:39:19.600
<v Speaker 1>picks lately. They look kind of vulnerable. I gotta say

0:39:19.680 --> 0:39:21.719
<v Speaker 1>that would be quite the upset if the Giants could

0:39:21.719 --> 0:39:24.320
<v Speaker 1>pull that one up. Speaking of the Giants, we have

0:39:24.360 --> 0:39:25.840
<v Speaker 1>a little game that we want to play with you.

0:39:25.960 --> 0:39:28.279
<v Speaker 1>Are you game to play our game. Game to play

0:39:28.320 --> 0:39:31.960
<v Speaker 1>your game. Okay, cool, it's a it's a quick game.

0:39:32.239 --> 0:39:35.040
<v Speaker 1>Are you familiar at all with the late eighties early

0:39:35.200 --> 0:39:41.800
<v Speaker 1>nineties Brooklyn alt rock band called They Might Be Giants? No,

0:39:42.080 --> 0:39:46.400
<v Speaker 1>we can't play that game. I'm not familiar with I've

0:39:46.480 --> 0:39:50.560
<v Speaker 1>never heard of him. I was born in and never liking. Well,

0:39:50.600 --> 0:39:52.360
<v Speaker 1>it's not important. We don't need to know who they

0:39:52.400 --> 0:39:54.960
<v Speaker 1>are because in this game, since you spent a majority

0:39:55.000 --> 0:39:57.000
<v Speaker 1>of your career with the New York Giants, we are

0:39:57.040 --> 0:39:59.960
<v Speaker 1>going to test your knowledge of their players. So we're

0:40:00.000 --> 0:40:02.040
<v Speaker 1>going to give you a name. You'll have to tell

0:40:02.120 --> 0:40:04.320
<v Speaker 1>us if they were a Giant or not. So the

0:40:04.400 --> 0:40:09.359
<v Speaker 1>game is called they Might be Giants. Okay, let's go. Look,

0:40:09.480 --> 0:40:12.240
<v Speaker 1>let's start with an easy one. Hall of Fame quarterback

0:40:12.400 --> 0:40:20.400
<v Speaker 1>Kurt Warner. It was a Giant, absolutely, two one, two

0:40:20.480 --> 0:40:26.239
<v Speaker 1>thousand and two. No, it was just one season two

0:40:27.000 --> 0:40:30.920
<v Speaker 1>right before Alien Manning came in. Okay, you got it

0:40:32.719 --> 0:40:35.839
<v Speaker 1>all right. He lost the heavyweight championship to a guy

0:40:35.960 --> 0:40:42.160
<v Speaker 1>named Hulk Hogan and his first name was Andre. He's

0:40:42.200 --> 0:40:43.800
<v Speaker 1>a giant, but he was in a New York Giant,

0:40:46.320 --> 0:40:52.439
<v Speaker 1>right he had giantis um. That's okay, Okay, what's about

0:40:52.560 --> 0:41:00.160
<v Speaker 1>cornerback Antonio Cromarty was in a giant? Very good or

0:41:00.200 --> 0:41:03.320
<v Speaker 1>two for my take. Antonio played for the Chargers, Jets, Cardinals,

0:41:03.440 --> 0:41:08.120
<v Speaker 1>and Colts. Okay, how about this one Hall of Fame kicker,

0:41:08.480 --> 0:41:12.560
<v Speaker 1>and I'll try to say this Swedish Martin Anderson. No,

0:41:14.520 --> 0:41:16.359
<v Speaker 1>he did play with the Giants. But I remember Martin

0:41:16.400 --> 0:41:20.040
<v Speaker 1>and when he was with the Saints. Yeah, one season

0:41:20.280 --> 0:41:23.080
<v Speaker 1>two thousand one he was a giant. Who dog one?

0:41:23.120 --> 0:41:25.640
<v Speaker 1>He was a giant? Yeah, okay, I remember from the point.

0:41:26.040 --> 0:41:28.880
<v Speaker 1>But you know what I get it though, kickers are

0:41:28.920 --> 0:41:34.799
<v Speaker 1>easy to forget. Oh man, I wouldn't I love my guy.

0:41:35.160 --> 0:41:36.600
<v Speaker 1>I can tell you all those guys I played with.

0:41:36.640 --> 0:41:38.600
<v Speaker 1>I play with Launge times and I played with j Feely,

0:41:38.800 --> 0:41:43.000
<v Speaker 1>both two great guys. Hmm I like that. Okay, this

0:41:43.080 --> 0:41:45.640
<v Speaker 1>one's kind of a trick question. Hall of Fame cornerback

0:41:45.840 --> 0:41:52.000
<v Speaker 1>Dion Sanders. No giant, well kind of. He never played

0:41:52.200 --> 0:41:53.920
<v Speaker 1>for the New York Giants. He played for the San

0:41:53.960 --> 0:41:57.719
<v Speaker 1>Francisco Giants. Oh so you know if those kind of

0:41:57.760 --> 0:42:01.880
<v Speaker 1>twists in this game is okay? Okay, Josh, you never

0:42:01.920 --> 0:42:03.960
<v Speaker 1>see the New York Giants, Okay, all right, let's go

0:42:05.000 --> 0:42:09.120
<v Speaker 1>see if you're paying attention. Okay, okay, how about this

0:42:09.280 --> 0:42:14.360
<v Speaker 1>one running back and Madden twelve cover athlete Peyton Hills

0:42:15.280 --> 0:42:17.640
<v Speaker 1>beat hillis they played with the Giants. I played with them?

0:42:19.120 --> 0:42:28.840
<v Speaker 1>There is, yeah, my last season okay. Linebacker James Harrison, no,

0:42:31.040 --> 0:42:35.719
<v Speaker 1>very good by Steelers, Bengals. Patriot's very good. I don't

0:42:35.840 --> 0:42:40.319
<v Speaker 1>I don't even remember. And with the Bengals that might

0:42:40.360 --> 0:42:45.320
<v Speaker 1>have been one season alright final there they might be Giants.

0:42:45.920 --> 0:42:48.399
<v Speaker 1>This is another trick question here, so I'm just I'm

0:42:48.400 --> 0:42:50.160
<v Speaker 1>giving I'm giving you a little help there. This is

0:42:50.800 --> 0:42:57.320
<v Speaker 1>buster Posey Buster Posy Buster Posy posy buster Buster pose

0:42:58.480 --> 0:43:01.520
<v Speaker 1>trick question. Then you got me with that one. I

0:43:01.600 --> 0:43:05.400
<v Speaker 1>don't know that. Yeah, I guess we're just testing your

0:43:05.400 --> 0:43:08.960
<v Speaker 1>baseball knowledge because he was a recently retired catcher. Uh

0:43:09.680 --> 0:43:12.640
<v Speaker 1>he was on the San Francisco John Yeah that now,

0:43:12.760 --> 0:43:16.400
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know that. When you see a trick question,

0:43:19.160 --> 0:43:21.720
<v Speaker 1>I know, but I just, like I said, I was thinking,

0:43:21.920 --> 0:43:23.799
<v Speaker 1>like I don't know, because I don't know a lot

0:43:23.840 --> 0:43:28.120
<v Speaker 1>about baseball. Yeah, who needs to? I didn't know to

0:43:28.200 --> 0:43:31.680
<v Speaker 1>make all of this money. Yeah, yes, I was about

0:43:31.719 --> 0:43:34.160
<v Speaker 1>to say the two things I learned about you is

0:43:34.280 --> 0:43:37.160
<v Speaker 1>you don't like rock music and you do not know

0:43:37.680 --> 0:43:41.880
<v Speaker 1>or like baseball. I've been Atlanta Braves fans since the

0:43:42.040 --> 0:43:45.640
<v Speaker 1>nineties every tense I can remember anything about baseball, and

0:43:45.640 --> 0:43:49.319
<v Speaker 1>I've been liking the praise ever since. And we are

0:43:49.840 --> 0:43:54.080
<v Speaker 1>world champions obviously. Yes, so that's the only team I

0:43:54.160 --> 0:43:56.520
<v Speaker 1>really pay attention to. Well, I would say you do

0:43:57.280 --> 0:44:00.239
<v Speaker 1>know your giants, Brandon. You played really well in that games.

0:44:00.280 --> 0:44:02.840
<v Speaker 1>So thanks so much for playing along with us. Everyone.

0:44:02.920 --> 0:44:07.680
<v Speaker 1>You can follow Brandon Jacob's on Twitter at Brandon Jacob's seven. Brandon,

0:44:07.760 --> 0:44:09.319
<v Speaker 1>thanks so much for joining us. This is a lot

0:44:09.360 --> 0:44:13.040
<v Speaker 1>of fun. Hey, thanks for having me. It was fun. Awesome.

0:44:13.239 --> 0:44:15.520
<v Speaker 1>Time to get to this weekend's action. Let's bring in

0:44:15.600 --> 0:44:44.200
<v Speaker 1>bet MGM, Betty Expert, Peter Andrew, Peter, Peter, Peter Peter.

0:44:44.320 --> 0:44:47.120
<v Speaker 1>We have got to get to this last weekend of games.

0:44:47.239 --> 0:44:50.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh my gosh, was it crazy. I think the craziest

0:44:50.600 --> 0:44:53.800
<v Speaker 1>games for me were Monday Night Football, forty Niners whooping

0:44:54.160 --> 0:44:59.200
<v Speaker 1>the Rams, Cowboys blowing out the Falcons for three Chiefs

0:44:59.320 --> 0:45:02.800
<v Speaker 1>cooking the eight or Who's Bills and the Jets with

0:45:02.880 --> 0:45:06.200
<v Speaker 1>that one. I guess we could have seen coming but

0:45:06.400 --> 0:45:10.320
<v Speaker 1>what did you see in last weekend's games. Yeah, so

0:45:10.440 --> 0:45:12.359
<v Speaker 1>we took a little bit of a beating for most

0:45:12.400 --> 0:45:15.680
<v Speaker 1>of the weekend. So everything went the better's way, which

0:45:15.719 --> 0:45:18.080
<v Speaker 1>is a good thing. Last night saved us a little bit.

0:45:18.239 --> 0:45:22.239
<v Speaker 1>Pretty impressive by my Niners. Just let you know Aaron

0:45:22.320 --> 0:45:25.040
<v Speaker 1>donald Owen five since he made that comment asking to

0:45:25.520 --> 0:45:30.000
<v Speaker 1>Samuel was so uh, just saying, just saying maybe maybe

0:45:30.080 --> 0:45:32.480
<v Speaker 1>time to start recognizing. But yeah, it was. It was

0:45:32.520 --> 0:45:34.799
<v Speaker 1>a crazy week. I think you looked at the green

0:45:34.840 --> 0:45:37.920
<v Speaker 1>Bay game. Green Bay looked fairly impressive. Obviously, Chiefs came

0:45:37.960 --> 0:45:40.640
<v Speaker 1>into Las Vegas and blue the Raiders out of the water,

0:45:41.200 --> 0:45:44.200
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys game, the Bills game, there was there're some

0:45:44.320 --> 0:45:47.520
<v Speaker 1>interesting scores last week. So it was exciting. And again

0:45:48.000 --> 0:45:49.480
<v Speaker 1>we had a couple of good weeks on our hand.

0:45:49.480 --> 0:45:51.319
<v Speaker 1>It's nice to see the customers get one back on us.

0:45:51.360 --> 0:45:53.440
<v Speaker 1>So it was a fun week. Do you think the

0:45:53.560 --> 0:45:57.680
<v Speaker 1>forty Niners are gonna be calling O d B and

0:45:57.840 --> 0:46:02.040
<v Speaker 1>just thanking him for going to Los Angeles? Is there?

0:46:02.200 --> 0:46:07.040
<v Speaker 1>Is he the Carmelo Anthony of football? One thousand percent? Yes,

0:46:07.400 --> 0:46:09.880
<v Speaker 1>once I saw that they signed him, and then obviously

0:46:09.920 --> 0:46:12.520
<v Speaker 1>it's unfortunate Robert Woods Paring, he's a c L. But

0:46:12.640 --> 0:46:14.680
<v Speaker 1>once I saw them get Ill Dell back them, I

0:46:14.760 --> 0:46:17.719
<v Speaker 1>knew we had that game under under control. Niners now

0:46:17.800 --> 0:46:19.719
<v Speaker 1>a game out of a playoff spot, which is really

0:46:19.760 --> 0:46:22.960
<v Speaker 1>intriguing considering how bad they've played. And they go into

0:46:23.080 --> 0:46:25.560
<v Speaker 1>Jacksonville next week, which is obviously a winnable games. So

0:46:25.600 --> 0:46:28.319
<v Speaker 1>they're back. So I'm excited again. And wait, Jannice, you're

0:46:28.320 --> 0:46:31.200
<v Speaker 1>gonna love this. You know why the Chiefs won? Did

0:46:31.320 --> 0:46:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Jackson Mahomes he was he wasn't there, he was in Scottsdale.

0:46:35.960 --> 0:46:39.360
<v Speaker 1>And also Patrick's fiance. See, this is what I'm here for.

0:46:39.520 --> 0:46:42.680
<v Speaker 1>This is all the juice. Patrick's fiance, Brittany took down

0:46:42.880 --> 0:46:45.279
<v Speaker 1>every picture on her Instagram with Jackson in it, So

0:46:45.520 --> 0:46:49.160
<v Speaker 1>something's going on. They probably listened to Unleashed and they

0:46:49.239 --> 0:46:51.239
<v Speaker 1>figured that they need to make a change. But that's

0:46:51.280 --> 0:46:54.759
<v Speaker 1>why the Chiefs are back, baby. Yeah? Is that why

0:46:54.880 --> 0:47:03.319
<v Speaker 1>the Panthers smoked the Cardinals because Jackson Mahomes was in Arizony? Yes? Yes, yes, yes,

0:47:03.640 --> 0:47:06.360
<v Speaker 1>Oh I love it. Yeah, we can probably do it.

0:47:06.440 --> 0:47:09.640
<v Speaker 1>Kevin Bacon six degrees of separation to whoever is connected

0:47:09.680 --> 0:47:13.040
<v Speaker 1>to Jackson Mahomes or Odell Beckham Jr. He's just gonna

0:47:13.080 --> 0:47:17.839
<v Speaker 1>start losing. I wouldn't mind if this podcast just became

0:47:17.880 --> 0:47:21.439
<v Speaker 1>at Jackson Mahomes Roads too on. All all in good fun,

0:47:21.600 --> 0:47:24.120
<v Speaker 1>like never want anything actually to happen in the family,

0:47:24.239 --> 0:47:27.000
<v Speaker 1>But man, is he annoying? That's all it is? Okay, Pete,

0:47:27.080 --> 0:47:29.520
<v Speaker 1>Let's get to this weekend's games. Have you picked your three?

0:47:29.640 --> 0:47:37.960
<v Speaker 1>We have no idea, punishment picks, no idea. I have

0:47:38.080 --> 0:47:40.000
<v Speaker 1>three good ones here and I think it's a really display.

0:47:40.120 --> 0:47:42.279
<v Speaker 1>It's some boy at the game. But first one I

0:47:42.320 --> 0:47:45.120
<v Speaker 1>have on the list Cold plus Steven on the road

0:47:45.600 --> 0:47:49.239
<v Speaker 1>versus the Bills. So at at Buffalo. Jonathan Taylor looks

0:47:49.280 --> 0:47:51.319
<v Speaker 1>like a new man these last couple of weeks really

0:47:51.400 --> 0:47:53.880
<v Speaker 1>really impressive. But you got to see the Bills, albeit

0:47:53.960 --> 0:47:56.759
<v Speaker 1>against the Jets. Stefon Diggs looks like he's coming out

0:47:56.760 --> 0:47:58.759
<v Speaker 1>of the shell a bit um. He had a hundred

0:47:58.800 --> 0:48:01.240
<v Speaker 1>sixty five in a touchdown. So it's an interesting matchup

0:48:01.280 --> 0:48:03.400
<v Speaker 1>and I think two of the better teams in the

0:48:03.480 --> 0:48:05.600
<v Speaker 1>a f C. What do you guys like there? M

0:48:06.280 --> 0:48:14.479
<v Speaker 1>I like the Bills why because they looked so good

0:48:14.640 --> 0:48:17.239
<v Speaker 1>they you know, they took their loss. They bounced back.

0:48:18.200 --> 0:48:21.600
<v Speaker 1>You know, the momentum. They just looked too good against

0:48:21.640 --> 0:48:23.400
<v Speaker 1>the Jets. I mean, granted they would play in the

0:48:23.520 --> 0:48:26.080
<v Speaker 1>Jets and like we said, maybe the Jets shouldn't be

0:48:26.120 --> 0:48:29.960
<v Speaker 1>in the NFL anymore, but um they I just they

0:48:30.080 --> 0:48:33.000
<v Speaker 1>just look good. I'm going with the Bills, baby, I'm

0:48:33.040 --> 0:48:36.399
<v Speaker 1>going with the Colts, um Merril Hodge. He even said

0:48:36.440 --> 0:48:39.000
<v Speaker 1>they were one of the most impressive teams that aren't

0:48:39.000 --> 0:48:40.960
<v Speaker 1>getting a lot of attention. The Colts are, and you

0:48:41.040 --> 0:48:43.600
<v Speaker 1>mentioned Jonathan Taylor, but they've got some weapons and we've

0:48:43.600 --> 0:48:47.000
<v Speaker 1>seen every week they can pull off upsets, they can

0:48:47.080 --> 0:48:49.680
<v Speaker 1>put up points. I like the Colts because you never

0:48:49.760 --> 0:48:52.080
<v Speaker 1>know what you're gonna get with them. Yeah. I think

0:48:52.120 --> 0:48:53.839
<v Speaker 1>it all comes down to Carson Wentz. If he makes

0:48:53.880 --> 0:48:56.480
<v Speaker 1>that terrible interception, they go as far as he does.

0:48:56.560 --> 0:49:00.800
<v Speaker 1>But great defense, obviously, great great running attacks. So yeah, okay,

0:49:01.400 --> 0:49:05.480
<v Speaker 1>second matchup we just mentioned cam Newton Washington football team

0:49:05.480 --> 0:49:08.880
<v Speaker 1>plus three and a half at Carolina Can three debut

0:49:09.000 --> 0:49:11.440
<v Speaker 1>back home, three and a half point favorites. What do

0:49:11.520 --> 0:49:14.440
<v Speaker 1>you like there? Do you want to go beauty beauty

0:49:14.520 --> 0:49:22.560
<v Speaker 1>before before, greekness, beauty before what I'm not entirely sure

0:49:22.640 --> 0:49:24.800
<v Speaker 1>on this one. The line's three and a half favor

0:49:24.920 --> 0:49:27.960
<v Speaker 1>in Carolina. This is tough. I love Cam Newton. I

0:49:28.160 --> 0:49:32.759
<v Speaker 1>loved watching him last week. Superman's back. I just I

0:49:32.880 --> 0:49:36.440
<v Speaker 1>don't know any time as a quarterback switch they always

0:49:36.480 --> 0:49:38.719
<v Speaker 1>are successful because the team didn't scout for him, did

0:49:38.760 --> 0:49:40.600
<v Speaker 1>a plan with him. He signed with Carolina kind of

0:49:40.680 --> 0:49:42.480
<v Speaker 1>later in the week, So I don't know. I think

0:49:42.560 --> 0:49:45.080
<v Speaker 1>Washington will be ready for Cam Newton. I guess I'm

0:49:45.120 --> 0:49:49.560
<v Speaker 1>going to take the underdog Washington football team. Okay, damn,

0:49:50.280 --> 0:49:54.680
<v Speaker 1>let's go with You know, this one's a three and

0:49:54.719 --> 0:49:56.880
<v Speaker 1>a half. You know, this one's a toss up for me.

0:49:56.920 --> 0:50:00.080
<v Speaker 1>So I'll just disagree with Olivia and I'll go with

0:50:00.360 --> 0:50:04.399
<v Speaker 1>the Panthers. I loved the way Washington look, but you know, yeah,

0:50:04.480 --> 0:50:06.480
<v Speaker 1>let's go with the return of Cam. He's not ready yet,

0:50:06.520 --> 0:50:08.560
<v Speaker 1>but he'll come in and run. He'll, he'll, he'll, He'll

0:50:08.600 --> 0:50:10.960
<v Speaker 1>be Cam. Yeah. I think it would have been interesting

0:50:11.080 --> 0:50:13.600
<v Speaker 1>Chase Young Obviously, he's an ending injury. It would have

0:50:13.600 --> 0:50:15.759
<v Speaker 1>been interesting to see him against Cam this week. Won't

0:50:15.760 --> 0:50:18.000
<v Speaker 1>get that, obviously, but I think that'll be a really

0:50:18.040 --> 0:50:21.719
<v Speaker 1>intriguing game. Last one as usual, close to home, for

0:50:21.960 --> 0:50:24.400
<v Speaker 1>for Olivia Cowboys. I think was this game of the

0:50:24.440 --> 0:50:27.479
<v Speaker 1>week Cowboys plus two and a half at Kansas City.

0:50:27.800 --> 0:50:29.200
<v Speaker 1>What do you guys like there? I think I know

0:50:29.280 --> 0:50:31.839
<v Speaker 1>what one person likes. This should be the Sunday night game.

0:50:32.120 --> 0:50:35.400
<v Speaker 1>This is not This is a man Jannest you go

0:50:35.480 --> 0:50:41.600
<v Speaker 1>first Cowboys that Chiefs? Oh Man. I can't. I can't.

0:50:41.760 --> 0:50:43.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm a giant fan. I can't. I can't pick

0:50:43.600 --> 0:50:45.919
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboy. I just can't do the Cowboys. I can't

0:50:45.920 --> 0:50:48.920
<v Speaker 1>do it. I you know what I'm going with. We've

0:50:48.920 --> 0:50:51.279
<v Speaker 1>been making a lot of fun about Jackson Mahomes, but

0:50:51.320 --> 0:50:53.640
<v Speaker 1>you know what, the Chiefs actually look like. They've pulled

0:50:53.680 --> 0:50:56.239
<v Speaker 1>it together. They are starting to play like the Chiefs

0:50:56.320 --> 0:51:00.719
<v Speaker 1>of old. I would normally ask where some homes is

0:51:00.719 --> 0:51:03.239
<v Speaker 1>gonna be before I make this pick, to find out

0:51:03.280 --> 0:51:05.560
<v Speaker 1>if he's gonna be in town. But I'm gonna go

0:51:05.640 --> 0:51:08.440
<v Speaker 1>with the Chiefs. That's where I really need to get

0:51:08.520 --> 0:51:10.360
<v Speaker 1>my journalist had on is I need to do some

0:51:10.480 --> 0:51:13.279
<v Speaker 1>investigative reporting to see if you've landed back at m

0:51:13.360 --> 0:51:17.920
<v Speaker 1>c I Airport yet and see I am going to

0:51:18.040 --> 0:51:20.800
<v Speaker 1>take the Chiefs. I do think they look so impressive.

0:51:20.840 --> 0:51:23.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean Dallas looked impressive last week too. I don't know.

0:51:23.239 --> 0:51:25.680
<v Speaker 1>This is tough, but I think the Chiefs got it together.

0:51:25.719 --> 0:51:28.200
<v Speaker 1>I feel like they are a winning team. And it's

0:51:28.239 --> 0:51:31.240
<v Speaker 1>been such an operation. There's been drama, there's been confusion.

0:51:31.320 --> 0:51:34.680
<v Speaker 1>I think they're back now and I like it. Hey, Peter, Also,

0:51:34.719 --> 0:51:36.040
<v Speaker 1>there's something I have to tell you, because I was

0:51:36.040 --> 0:51:38.719
<v Speaker 1>texting you this weekend about my amazing bet that I

0:51:38.880 --> 0:51:41.319
<v Speaker 1>thought I was gonna like put my house on this one,

0:51:42.840 --> 0:51:45.200
<v Speaker 1>and it didn't hit. Listen to this you honest at

0:51:45.239 --> 0:51:48.240
<v Speaker 1>twelve to one odds plus twelve hundred. I was driving

0:51:48.320 --> 0:51:50.560
<v Speaker 1>through Iowa as Sam when I were driving from Wisconsin

0:51:50.640 --> 0:51:52.839
<v Speaker 1>and Kansas City, and I was a legal gambling state.

0:51:52.920 --> 0:51:54.680
<v Speaker 1>So I whip out my bed MGM map and I'm

0:51:54.920 --> 0:51:57.520
<v Speaker 1>seeing where I can put some money, and I put

0:51:57.600 --> 0:52:00.920
<v Speaker 1>fifty bucks on Baker Mayfield to score a touchdown but

0:52:01.000 --> 0:52:04.440
<v Speaker 1>the Patriots to win. Well, the thing is, it happened,

0:52:04.640 --> 0:52:06.600
<v Speaker 1>and I thought I was gonna win six fifty bucks,

0:52:07.040 --> 0:52:09.279
<v Speaker 1>but it had to be a rushing touchdown, and as

0:52:09.320 --> 0:52:11.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, he scored the first touchdown of the game

0:52:11.080 --> 0:52:14.160
<v Speaker 1>was a passing touchdown. And here I am celebrating, Thank God.

0:52:14.200 --> 0:52:15.920
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't in a bar then got him knocked up.

0:52:15.920 --> 0:52:19.320
<v Speaker 1>But I wasn't like drinks on me. I would have

0:52:20.239 --> 0:52:22.160
<v Speaker 1>Uh so I am so mad about that. But Peter,

0:52:22.320 --> 0:52:24.799
<v Speaker 1>I was texting you, I said, does passing touchdown count?

0:52:25.640 --> 0:52:28.560
<v Speaker 1>I was midflight and I think I saw that message

0:52:28.600 --> 0:52:29.840
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, oh boy. I was like, I

0:52:29.880 --> 0:52:32.200
<v Speaker 1>don't know if I have, Like, how do I tell her? No?

0:52:32.800 --> 0:52:34.080
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I don't think I could tell her

0:52:34.120 --> 0:52:39.160
<v Speaker 1>this bad news. But that's a tough one. Um, it

0:52:39.239 --> 0:52:42.600
<v Speaker 1>should say rushing touchdown, don't you think? Yeah? I agree,

0:52:42.680 --> 0:52:45.360
<v Speaker 1>that's a good point. We'll give you a winner this weekend.

0:52:45.640 --> 0:52:47.600
<v Speaker 1>We'll get you back in the in the green. So

0:52:48.120 --> 0:52:49.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm confident we'll give you something. Maybe we'll share it

0:52:49.920 --> 0:52:53.680
<v Speaker 1>on social Peter, Olivia had to tell you something, and

0:53:55.120 --> 0:53:58.320
<v Speaker 1>he was just emoting sexiness and the Boygan food Bank commercial.
