Welcome back to 20 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 1: another Just to the Around the NFL Podcast. My name 21 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 1: is Dan Hanzas, and I am joined by a room 22 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,680 Speaker 1: filled with heroes, Mark Sessler, Chris Westling, and Gregg Rose 23 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 1: with aught about boys. Hey, Dan, all back together now? 24 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 1: It really feels like I don't know. I was gonna 25 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: say it's two thousand fifteen, but it's not yet. Yeah, 26 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: we're not quite. There are two days away. Uh, we're 27 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 1: gonna do you know, a couple of shows leading up 28 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: to the playoffs, and then a big Sunday playoffs spectacular 29 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:28,039 Speaker 1: show recapping all the games. And and yes we will 30 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:29,959 Speaker 1: be talking about the Jets. I would love to run 31 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 1: the Jets. I feel like that's that would be maybe 32 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: a life's dream that would surely turn into a nightmare. Well, 33 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: I think three months in you'd find out that you 34 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 1: have the entire state of New York Cohen for your head. 35 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: Because when it comes to picking players and running, you know, 36 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,839 Speaker 1: a salary cap, you have no experience. There's very little 37 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: reason to think Danon would be capable of running an 38 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: NFL team. I bet you would make quicker decisions than 39 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: I would act in a rash manner. I would spend 40 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: a lot of money. I am, as I've said before, 41 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: and once a new York State mandated test in high school. 42 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: I got a forty out of a hundred when I 43 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: was sixteen. So I am the opposite of John Iszick. 44 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: But isn't that a good thing? Yes, you would. You 45 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 1: would probably give Rex Ryan a lot of money, keep 46 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 1: him around. Maybe if we went out for beers, he'd 47 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: probably talk me into it for sure. Mark, you're wearing 48 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: a new shirt, Mark new shirt. It's beautiful. We got 49 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 1: some new shirts or Christmas got three? And so well, 50 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: it doesn't because I had five in theory, I have eight, 51 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 1: but three at least three of the five that I 52 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 1: had need to be put into the circular file. They 53 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: need to be put into the trash or turned into 54 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: I dubbed this one sweet Judy blue Eyes. I am 55 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: the Crosby Steells Natan Youngs. I thought you would like that, Wes. Alright, 56 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,639 Speaker 1: so we got a big show today. This is uh 57 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 1: t d uh I call this this is the news 58 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 1: of Palooza. Show so much news, I said, news of Paloza. 59 00:02:53,000 --> 00:03:00,080 Speaker 1: T d a palooza. Oh new job. I needed a 60 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 1: second time. And he guys, ever did any of you 61 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: go to Lalla Pluoza ever in your life? I went 62 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: to one. I went to one during a festival. Really 63 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: I went. I believe Whole was the headliner that year, 64 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 1: but I really was going to see Pavement was involved. 65 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: Remember the boss Stones were there, I think on a 66 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 1: side stage. And finding that guitar sounded thing drop, I realized, 67 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: it's a lot of YouTube videos on how to spill 68 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: a guitar? Greg, do you know to of course he 69 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: does what play guitar? No little Squire was in Delaware? 70 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: Come on with the little thing? Yeah? Yeah, I mean 71 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: I don't know how to play guitar though, actually my 72 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: brother went to college for it, so I kind of 73 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: I've seen it. But I say that Greg obviously is 74 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: a music Is that a whammy bar? Something from Delaware? 75 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: But then Delaware was really everything that was against that 76 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: type of showy guitar work and the hair metal scene. 77 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: He was an answer to that. He was post punk, underground, 78 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: that he was more the dark it of a band 79 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: that maybe didn't even agree with instruments. Yes, So, like 80 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: I said, today's show is all about news a palooza. 81 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: Thanks T d T. He was downstairs like fifteen minutes 82 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 1: getting this drop. I keep on waiting for him to drop, 83 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: but he won't do it on time. What is that 84 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: Eddie van Halen or something. It's just some YouTube. It's 85 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: Carl van Halen. So anyway, uh TD, So we're gonna 86 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 1: do that. We're gonna do a lot of news, a 87 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: lot of big news obviously after That's why I was 88 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:35,280 Speaker 1: a validin type of brother, not a guitar dude. You 89 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:40,720 Speaker 1: know at the sentence I've never heard before. I was 90 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: a violent type of brother. That's how we sell this. Uh, 91 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: We're gonna get to all the Black Monday moves and 92 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: all the other news going on in the league right now. 93 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: Of course, the playoff matchups will have a proper playoff 94 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: Saturday Sunday playoff preview in our second show of the week. 95 00:04:58,080 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: This one will be covering a lot of the news 96 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 1: hence new as a paluza, and we'll also do a 97 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 1: little what's more likely with a special guest that we'll 98 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,839 Speaker 1: be calling from the news room to come upstairs and 99 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 1: join us. But let's get into the news because there's 100 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: so much of a TV. Let's do it. You come 101 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: into k You best not miss the wire in HD. 102 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: If you guys have been a social media all week, 103 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 1: you know about it and shout out to Omar Omar, 104 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 1: who is essentially I don't know West and Mark, I 105 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: know Greg. You know the show he was. He was 106 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,479 Speaker 1: the Robin Hood of Baltimore, UH and one of the 107 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: great characters of all time in television. Good job, t D. 108 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: All right, let's start, gentlemen with something that just came 109 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 1: over Twitter as we were talking at the top of 110 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: the show. The Dominican Sioux, who had been suspended for 111 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: stepping on Aaron Rodgers on Monday, stepped on Sunday, got 112 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: suspended on Monday. Uh. He appealed it uh to play 113 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: in the Sunday game against the cow Boys, and now 114 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: that suspension has been rescinded in instead he'll get find 115 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: seventy dollars. So Sue is playing this weekend against the Cowboys. 116 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: A big, big lift for the Detroit Lions, who for 117 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 1: a while there looked like they might be without their 118 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: best defensive players. Your thought, gentlemen, well, you had a 119 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 1: hot take on this from a league perspective. Oh, I 120 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 1: think that that they sent a message here with it. 121 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: I think on some level this might have been the 122 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: plan all along. Let's scare the hell out of him 123 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: and the Lions and maybe little shakunaw move. And if 124 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: it gets overturned by Ted Control, which is what ended 125 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: up happening here, that's fine. But the NFL shows we 126 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: mean business. No Domican, come on, nice name anyway, buddy, 127 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 1: you can't do this kind of stuff. It's not often 128 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: that you see this stuff get appealed like this and overturned. 129 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,919 Speaker 1: Ed Reid was the last one, also by Ted Cantrell. 130 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: I can't imagine that the league office is happy that 131 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: it's overturned. I think they were trying to send a statement, 132 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 1: but this is why, um they have the appeals process 133 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: in and it's you know, I as a football fan, 134 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 1: you better be sure that that was intentional, and it 135 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,600 Speaker 1: probably was. But I want to see him play in 136 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: the playoff game. The Lions are only in the playoffs 137 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: twice twice in the last twenty years or whatever. Let's 138 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: just put him in there. I have no I have 139 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: no confidence that that was intentional. I have how could 140 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: you know? I mean the fact that he kind of 141 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: stayed on it. It was so intentional, And think about 142 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: who's doing it, who he did it too, Think that 143 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: he didn't look back, that that he backed up, backed 144 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: up again and put all his weight on his Compared 145 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 1: to Dominic Rail the week before. Rail was obviously intentional 146 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: this one. By looking at the video, I could not 147 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: tell that it was intentional. I thought they were the 148 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: same level. Let me ask you something real quick. Let's say, 149 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 1: you know we're talking about four. Let's say that when 150 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 1: he did that step, whether it was intentional or not, 151 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: that he shatters the lower leg of Aaron Rodgers than 152 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: it does right. Sorry, question. So he steps on the 153 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 1: greatest NFL quarterback in the league right now, he suspended 154 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: a year, probably breaks his leg. I mean, so part 155 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: of it is because they were going to play flexible 156 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: with it with the punishment. That seems shaky to me too. 157 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: I hate that, and I do think that happens a 158 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: lot with these um finds and suspensions and illegal hits 159 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: that if the player gets up and he's fine, it 160 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: doesn't end up being as big a deal. So maybe, uh, 161 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: I think you have a good point there. I also 162 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 1: want to see if Sue plays better this week. He 163 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: has a really tough matchup. If you watch that Packers game, 164 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: he was on the ground a lot. I mean, he 165 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: had a really poor He had a really tough time 166 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:32,839 Speaker 1: I mean, they were throwing him to the ground. He 167 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 1: made a couple of nice plays in the running game. 168 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: But I've watched I've only watched two of the last 169 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 1: three weeks that they played, but his game against Minnesota 170 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: and his game against Green Bay where two of the 171 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 1: worst Sioux games I've seen. He was invisible, got really dominated. 172 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,959 Speaker 1: And now he's going up against an all Pro in 173 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: Zack Martin and Travis Federick and that good Cowboys offensive line. 174 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 1: So Sue, he's got a show that he's that type 175 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: of player that's one of the best defensive players in 176 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: the league. Maybe he's not playing well, but still it's 177 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: uh oh too much. It's huge, and he's been great 178 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 1: all year. I'm not saying he hasn't had a bad season. 179 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: It's just a bad ending to the season for him, Alright, 180 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 1: So Sue playing on Sunday, big news for the Lions 181 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: and the Cowboys. And we move on. Let's hit some 182 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,319 Speaker 1: Black Monday stuff and we'll start with my beloved Jets 183 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: who acted acted decisively. Woody Johnson did on Monday morning, 184 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 1: early Monday morning, uh, firing both Rex Ryan and the 185 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 1: Glacier John Iszic. That era is over. Ryan after six years, 186 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: Isazec after just two years, and now the search uh 187 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: begins to find and locate a new entire structure for 188 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 1: this team. And UH, this seems like the right move, 189 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: right because they tried it with Rex, they kept kept 190 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,319 Speaker 1: him and brought in a new GM, and that that 191 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: didn't really work out. So it would have been a 192 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: bit of a strange move for Woody to keep Rex 193 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: again and then hire GM. Right when do you think 194 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:54,319 Speaker 1: that ISEC will find out that he's fired? It did. 195 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: I did, and I don't want to pile on the guy, 196 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: but I will anyways. I did find it funny when 197 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 1: he released the statement like six hours after that really 198 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 1: did happen. I'm not even sure if the Jets yet 199 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: the danger here was. I mean, if you look back 200 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,079 Speaker 1: in time, maybe they wouldn't have gone full on with 201 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 1: this and they would have kept it zick around, let 202 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: him pick another coach and you're back in that cycle. 203 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 1: Good on Woody Johnson for now. I think something's with 204 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: the Jets was a little bit too much of what's 205 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: happening with the public perception and how do we respond 206 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,599 Speaker 1: to that. But it was the right move to get it. 207 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,439 Speaker 1: Zack out of there and start over. But the question 208 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,319 Speaker 1: is if they're now interviewing and looking to interview coaches 209 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,719 Speaker 1: and they don't have a GM again, Yeah, that confuses me, 210 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: Like Dan, does that concern you to go in that order? Yeah, 211 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: but I guess I don't think it's unusual what they're 212 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: doing right now. It's a little unusual that they're interviewing 213 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 1: both at the same time and they're kind of figuring 214 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:45,959 Speaker 1: out which one are we gonna get first. That's what 215 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 1: happened in Seattle. It's the GM search first. Yeah, the 216 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: GM should pick the coach in theory, sounds like Wood 217 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 1: he has more confidence in Charlie Cashley and Ron Wolf 218 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 1: than any next GM that who I have I see. 219 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: I think they're playing I think so far, and the 220 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: Jets never ceased to amaze me with their ability to 221 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: mess things up. But I think so far woo. Do 222 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,959 Speaker 1: I think he acted wisely cliny Hause? I thought he 223 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,079 Speaker 1: came off pretty well in that press conference, with the 224 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: exception of sticking in his foot in his mouth about 225 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,599 Speaker 1: revis Uh saying that you know, I'd love to have 226 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: him back. He had to call Robert Kraft Belichick twisted 227 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 1: the knife a little bit, so hopefully they won't get 228 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: hit under the bus. He made it clearly. Rex wanted 229 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: Revis and Itzick did not. Well, forget Revs. The point is, 230 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: how about draft and groom young players. Stop chasing Drel Revis. 231 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 1: Forget about that. I mean, it's like it's it's that's 232 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,199 Speaker 1: the issue drafted players. That's the issue with the Jets 233 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: and a lot of bad teams. As though your your 234 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 1: draft picks, that your high picks are not sticking. They're 235 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: not turning into the players that should be. If they're 236 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: interviewing Trent Kirchner, the Seahawks pro director of Pro Personnel, 237 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 1: that's a great sign, right because they took Zick out 238 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: of Seattle when he was a bean counter. They had 239 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 1: to fix their salary cap. That's fixed. They have good 240 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 1: salary caplculation right now. Now they need to find young 241 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 1: player ors and kachters. Who finds better late round draft 242 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 1: picks than the Seahawks. I just think it'd be weird 243 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: if they hire and some of the names we're seeing, 244 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:09,959 Speaker 1: you know that they're interviewing as head coaches. You know 245 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: some have been around, some have it. It's weird if 246 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:13,559 Speaker 1: you hire kind of a low level coach or mid 247 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,959 Speaker 1: level coach, and then you hire the GM. It's just 248 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: a strange way to do it. Yeah, you know what, 249 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 1: you never ceased to amaze me, Greg with your ability 250 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 1: to find the thunderclouds over my jets. Oh yeah, everything's great, 251 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: Woody Johnson, what a track record of success. Has there 252 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 1: been a worst owner in the last fifteen years? Hard, Yes, 253 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:34,839 Speaker 1: but we won't get into it. I mean there has been, 254 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 1: but he's among the worst. Not hard to look up 255 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 1: into the sky and say, hey, look that black clouds 256 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 1: following the Jets. Wait, we don't know what. Let's wait 257 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 1: till fat Just wait because I'm just saying so far 258 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 1: to me, so so good. But yeah, we hire tom Cable, 259 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 1: that'll be great. I will by the way. That by 260 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,679 Speaker 1: the way, that's not gonna happen. By the way, just 261 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 1: get ready because Billy all check. He's not getting any younger. 262 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 1: Tommy boys edging up to forty. Oh you're going back 263 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,079 Speaker 1: to the dark ages. I've told I've been saying that 264 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: for years. I'm glad they keep stretching this out and 265 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: being great. Once Pelichick's gone, it's over and go agnostic. Look, 266 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: there's a lot of pain that went through that. It's 267 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: not that easy. Do you have a coach, by the way, 268 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: that you would you would like to see, especially out 269 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: of this list that they've seen that they like. Even 270 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 1: though they failed with going to the Seattle Well last 271 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 1: time with is Zec, I think if they go back 272 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 1: to that well and then make the right decisions this time, 273 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 1: it could work. Uh, you know the queen, I'm hearing 274 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: good things about the who's the guy we're just talking about? Kirshner? 275 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: Don Kirshner would But why I don't know to me, 276 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 1: why would it make sense to fire Rex Ryan, who 277 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,559 Speaker 1: can develop better defensive game plans than anyone, and then 278 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,319 Speaker 1: bringing a defensive head coach. Well, you already had that 279 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,679 Speaker 1: tweeted this morning too. It's basically you're not going to 280 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: go find a better defensive mind. But I can see it. No, 281 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:01,599 Speaker 1: I'm not joking, and I don't even think it's the 282 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:03,199 Speaker 1: worst dire ever, but I could see that at we 283 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: had an organic email chain Connor gregging myself. I don't 284 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:07,719 Speaker 1: know why West and Mark were left out. That was 285 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 1: a management decision by Greg because and and Kevin Patra 286 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: as well. Well, we should we should have not because 287 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 1: we started the idea yesterday. It was originally just going 288 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,440 Speaker 1: to be me and Connor, but then Dan Waltz didn't. 289 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 1: I thought we would. It would be weird for him 290 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 1: him to not be involved on a Jets debate, but 291 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 1: then we got lazy and never Really the point of 292 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 1: matter still doesn't answer my question. We were we were 293 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: talking about, you know, I think Connor made the point 294 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: that you're not going to find a coach. It's gonna 295 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 1: be uh strong and all facets most likely, but maybe 296 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: you can find a guy that has a little more 297 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: balanced than Rex did. And the way we go, I 298 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 1: don't know it. We'll see what happens. There's more firings 299 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 1: to talk about. Mike Smith in Atlanta, he gone, h 300 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: he's fired after hell, long was he there? He was 301 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: there a long time. Was six years years and six years. 302 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: Of course he's been here seven because he was Coach 303 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: of the Year in two thousand and eight. He probably 304 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: doesn't get fired, by the way, if they won against 305 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: the Panthers on Sunday but they get wiped out, well 306 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 1: maybe they he might have, but he did favor Yeah, 307 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 1: they have the eighth pick. Now, wow, that is such 308 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: a big right for a team that was going nowhere. 309 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: So Mike Smith out and the Falcons. Uh to cite 310 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: again that email chamber're talking about. That is a nice 311 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: job to to want to get into it because you 312 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 1: have a franchise quarterback in his prime right now and 313 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan, to me, it's all about the quarterback in 314 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 1: the owner. If you're a head coach, that's what That's 315 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: what the first two places you want to look. And 316 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: Falcons are easily the best job I think, and I 317 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: think they've gotten embedded GM that he's the year find 318 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 1: track record recently. Though we can't just glance over the 319 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 1: fact that the Falcons are sort of a disaster and 320 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: key areas, but they've got a quarterback. We have to 321 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: assume he still has a job to Uh. Tom Thomas 322 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 1: Demitrov is most likely going to be there. Our guys 323 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: have said that he's safe, but Arthur blank Win say 324 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: he was safe. At the press conference, he kind of 325 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: made him squirm. He had demitrof sitting there and he 326 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 1: said structural changes might be coming, so Demitrov might have 327 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: a new boss, which would be interesting either way. That's 328 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 1: that's a great job. They'll bring in some firm like 329 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: it decon to get well, they brought in corn, they 330 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 1: brought in corn ferry whatever. Some some people who know 331 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: nothing about football are going to tell him to fire 332 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: Thomas Demittrov. I don't know about that, right. I don't 333 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: like these search firms they hired. Now, we did West. 334 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: It's about money. A lot of people get very rich 335 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 1: and it doesn't affect the result. Nobody's the worst search firm. 336 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 1: How now, John is that got hired was a search 337 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: for Yeah, how that works right?

What was last 340 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: on your list? I put the Jets there? Oh like 341 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 1: you would disagree? Would you just regret? The Raiders last 342 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: by by a lot? But I take the quarterback just 343 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 1: because he's there. Well, we don't know yet. All Pence 344 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 1: the Pats are in a bye week. Greg is spending 345 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 1: this week just shooting all over the Jets for every 346 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 1: possible It's just like if you're a navelists in your 347 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 1: book's been published, you've got three months till it hits 348 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 1: the stores.

And then now that just treats over 352 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,159 Speaker 1: in there four and twelve and they have nothing that 353 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:14,680 Speaker 1: now that you're saying we should be just go back 354 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,200 Speaker 1: and read Greg's last five Jets related posts and tell 355 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: me if pays something there. That's all I'm gonna say. 356 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,679 Speaker 1: Moving on more firings. The Chicago Bears clean house. They 357 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 1: fired bolt general manager Bill Emery and Mark Tressman, and 358 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: even a bigger issue, Grandma's piste Virginia McCaskey. We were 359 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 1: told during a press conference today are on Monday that 360 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 1: she is here's the I gotta read this exact quotes. 361 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 1: I actually, TD, do we have this? She's piste off. 362 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 1: I can't think of a ninety one year old woman 363 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 1: that that description would apply to, but in this case, 364 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: I can't think of a more accurate description. Yeah, George McCaskey, 365 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 1: the line there seething. If you watched that video, by 366 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 1: the way, just it's actually very Yeah, you should go 367 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 1: and find the video on NFL dot com. Because he's 368 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,199 Speaker 1: looking down like in some type of film, and then 369 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: he looks up and drops that hammer. Grandma, Is that 370 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 1: a Tyler Perry movie? Forget forget that Kevin Costner movie. 371 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 1: This should be the NFL now whatever that Brown's movie 372 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: is fort Day, this should be the movie the piste 373 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: off Grandma and kind of the feckless fifty five year 374 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 1: old guy trying to own the team and he doesn't 375 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:35,680 Speaker 1: know what to do and they rebuild themselves into a champion. 376 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: She's fed up with mediocrity, George said, seething. According to 377 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 1: Mark Sessler, she feels that she embarrassed. Fans everywhere deserved better. 378 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 1: What should they do? This organization is really spinning its wheels. 379 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,160 Speaker 1: They're not, you know, an embarrassment, but they're just kind 380 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 1: of they exist and they Cutler move was just a 381 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 1: disaster and he's still involved. This is a tough situation. 382 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:56,720 Speaker 1: What kind of job is this do you think? For 383 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,399 Speaker 1: a GM and coaches? This a nice landing spot. Chicago 384 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 1: is a great place to be a historic franchise, but 385 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 1: there seems to be a lot of things up in 386 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 1: the area. I debated putting this last on my list 387 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 1: in terms of best d because with the Jets. Ultimately, yes, 388 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,440 Speaker 1: the Bears. What are the Bears have other than a 389 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:19,160 Speaker 1: history of being solid. They just fired their coach after 390 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 1: two years for the first time since the fifties. They 391 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 1: have a core of very interesting offensive town. They have 392 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 1: a good fantasy football team in Martellis Bennett, who's a knucklehead, 393 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:29,959 Speaker 1: Brandon Marshall, who's getting up there. He's still a good 394 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 1: guy to have, Alison Jeffrey, who's young, Matt fourteen. That's 395 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:38,159 Speaker 1: a good enough offensive line. Yeah, that that's okay. No 396 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: no defense in a quarterback situation walking into an absolute 397 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 1: bee's nest with the quarterback sneer. I wouldn't want to 398 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,440 Speaker 1: Speaking of which, if we do this movie, can the 399 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 1: outside Providence version of Alec Baldwin kind of down and 400 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 1: out father played j Cutler? You hit popped Cop Cop? 401 00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: I wonder if the Tyler Perry was good and Gone Girl. 402 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 1: You should see That's Gone Girl? Is that a new 403 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:06,360 Speaker 1: We can't save you on? This One's not a crossby 404 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: He was great though. It was a perfect good supporting girl. 405 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: West Gone Girl was like the biggest, one of the 406 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 1: biggest novels in the past couple of years and one 407 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:19,879 Speaker 1: of the biggest movies of the past year. Well, if 408 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: I don't have television. Where would I hear about this movie. 409 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: You're on the internet like nine or ten hours a day. Yeah, 410 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 1: they're not talking about Gone Girl, but the Bears. The 411 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: Bears have requested to speak with Adam Gaze, which makes 412 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 1: me think, are they still gonna look for the coach 413 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: that can turn Jay Cutler around after he's gone through offense? 414 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 1: Believe that their focus is let's turn j Cutler into 415 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: a star. I think that you've got to find a 416 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: way to get rid of this guy. Didn't Phil Emory 417 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 1: get fired for giving too much money to Jay Cutler? Maybe, 418 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 1: but they, well, tract has to be why he's gone. 419 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,360 Speaker 1: I think it was partly how they were losing games. 420 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: He'd been there three years, Trustment had only been there too, 421 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 1: and there was some disagreement dissension between the two sides, 422 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 1: and maybe they just wanted a clean house. Cutler lead 423 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 1: Cutler led to a lot of blood letting, and it's like, 424 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: you're gonna you want to get someone who's going on 425 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: to sign up for a quarterback that's gotten that many 426 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 1: guys fired. I just it's a it's a danger zone Tressman. 427 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 1: We gotta get him down with Rex somewhere or maybe 428 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: in Atlanta's going down to the All right, let's move 429 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 1: on with some more news up lous Wow, all right, Niners, 430 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 1: GM Trent Balki and CEO Jed York had a what 431 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:44,120 Speaker 1: was highly entertaining, I would say, and sometimes combative news 432 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 1: conference on Monday talking about the fallout of firing or 433 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 1: excuse me, officially parting ways mutually with Jim Harbaugh, who 434 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 1: ended up landing with Michigan where he's going to going 435 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 1: to dominate in the college all over a few years, 436 00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 1: I would assume, Uh, but now the Niners are searching 437 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 1: for a head coach and Mark you we watched this 438 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: uh together and Greg, we were all watching it downstairs 439 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 1: in the newsroom. This was an interesting presser with some 440 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 1: San Francisco based journalists really going after these two men 441 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 1: for a move that doesn't seem like it's very popular. Well, 442 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: I think these guys have spent you know, four years 443 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 1: dealing with Jim Harbaugh and answering and asking questions to him. 444 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 1: And at one point one local journalists went right at 445 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,359 Speaker 1: York and basically said, let me teach you a lesson 446 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 1: about was it integrity or dignity or something? He was 447 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:36,399 Speaker 1: referencing I guess York at one point made a comment, 448 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 1: how we you know, we we do things with integrity 449 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 1: or class, And then this reporter got after York about 450 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 1: his Thanksgiving night tweet apologizing for the effort of the 451 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,359 Speaker 1: team after they got wiped out by the Seahawks, and 452 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: they went back and forth and it ended with York like, 453 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 1: thanks for the life lesson, Darryl. I mean, an NFL 454 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,959 Speaker 1: owner gets taken to task by a writer that director. 455 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 1: You saw a lot of You saw a lot of 456 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:00,919 Speaker 1: anger from the media towards York. It wasn't towards Balky 457 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 1: showed well, I thought, who somebody on the newsroom Mike Coppinger, 458 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 1: Greg made a good point that he sounds like Funk 459 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,360 Speaker 1: bunk Houser from Curb Your Enthusiasm. That was the big 460 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 1: That was the big takeaway. That the thing with this job, 461 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 1: though it's a great job to Usually these jobs don't 462 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,440 Speaker 1: come open with Kaepernick and a lot of talent there, 463 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 1: and Atlanta's got Matt Ryan. I mean, Chicago at least 464 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 1: has been good over the years. These are pretty good. 465 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 1: To San Francisco. Job is a good job. There's a 466 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: lot of pressure to cold to follow I think after 467 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:34,879 Speaker 1: Hardball he put it, I thought Balki put it well. 468 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,399 Speaker 1: He said, this is not a rebuilding situation. This is 469 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: a reload reload situations in which it see it seems 470 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 1: like the pieces are there. If they're the guys on 471 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: defense come back healthy and Alton Smith Smith keeps his 472 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 1: head on straight, and they get somebody in there that 473 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 1: could work with Kaepernick and make him more consistent, this 474 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,920 Speaker 1: is a good job. T D didn't didn't DJ have 475 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,880 Speaker 1: an interesting take on this one. Who is this? DJ 476 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 1: stag with Jeremiah on the movie The forty Niners don't 477 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 1: need a coach to fix Kaepernick. They need a coach 478 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 1: to fix the system about the system guys, which kind 479 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 1: of echoes what right tackle Anthony Davis was saying the 480 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 1: other day that Greg Roman got two cute during the 481 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: off season and tried to out trick everyone instead of 482 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: playing forty Niners football. Would be stunned if Roman was 483 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,959 Speaker 1: there next year, even if they promoted Jim tom Sula, 484 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 1: who's their defensive line coach, which is a favorite for 485 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:26,679 Speaker 1: the job. I think they're going to change offensive systems, 486 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: and if you look at who they're talking to, gaze 487 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 1: from Denver, McDaniels from New England, Kyle Shanahan, also some 488 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,399 Speaker 1: defensive guys like Todd Balls, but it seems like an 489 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 1: offensive system sort of bent. And I was doing some 490 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: reading from back in the day on the Niners a 491 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,679 Speaker 1: couple of years ago, when they were really a humming organization. 492 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: Wes you wrote, and I remember we talked about this. 493 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 1: You called the Niners the vanguard of the NFL, which 494 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 1: I thought was a nice uh phrase to use, or 495 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: a word to use to describe them. Have they gone 496 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 1: and messed it up? Now? Are they going in the 497 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 1: wrong direction as an organization? I didn't e J's point 498 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 1: is a pretty solid one, and that must be I'm 499 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 1: guessing he's hearing that from other people around the league 500 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 1: and probably some people in the forty Niners organization that 501 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 1: Greg Roman and Jim Harbaugh went away from their strengths 502 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: and actually changed the system, tried to make Kaepernick more 503 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: of a passer than a read option guy. This is 504 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: a fascinating team to watch all offseason, though, because they 505 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 1: have a lot of tough decision to make. Frank Gore, 506 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 1: Michael Crabtree, you gotta wonder if you're gonna keep that 507 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: the Crabtree decision is gonna be hard, right, Fine, he's 508 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 1: going elsewhere, but you gotta get you gotta get some 509 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 1: speed at wide receiver. Vernon Davis under contract for a 510 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:37,920 Speaker 1: pretty low salary. Yeah, can't get more than ten yards 511 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 1: a game, Okay, I don't think he was healthy. Stevie Johnson, 512 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:44,679 Speaker 1: Justin Smith probably retiring. So it's just a team in transition. Well, 513 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 1: you've got three of the best five inside linebackers in 514 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: the NFL now too, So how do you plan that out? 515 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: Patrick Willis has owed a lot of money. You have 516 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,639 Speaker 1: to prove he can play coming off of his knee injury. 517 00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,680 Speaker 1: I still it's in. It's in chigging. But that's to 518 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 1: me that this job is not nearly as good as 519 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: Atlanta because of the Division two. You gotta beat Pete Carroll, 520 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 1: you gotta beat Bruce Arians every year and in the 521 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:09,919 Speaker 1: one different Seattle also stressed they wanted to move towards 522 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: more of a passing game for Russell Wilson earlier in 523 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 1: the season and in the off season, and when that 524 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 1: didn't quite work out, they went back to what they 525 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 1: were did not do that until way too late in 526 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 1: the year. Moving on the Cleveland Browns mark. They entered 527 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: the off season at seven, seven and nine. Johnny Manzel 528 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 1: spoke to the media on Monday from his locker, obviously 529 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 1: a huge crowd around him and for all the wrong reasons, 530 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 1: after he had that not a party. He wants everyone 531 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,239 Speaker 1: to know. He did not have a party on Friday night. 532 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 1: It was a get together with three friends from Texas 533 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 1: that ended with him. The fans of Cleveland did not 534 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 1: like it because it sounds like he had a funnel time, 535 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 1: probably got tanked and then slept through his iPhone alarm, 536 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 1: which sent Cleveland security personnel to his condo. And what 537 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,639 Speaker 1: is going on in this world? And this was his quote. 538 00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,919 Speaker 1: This is what he said to the media on Monday 539 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 1: before potentially we saw on Instagram going out for Lebron 540 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 1: James's birthday potentially. Uh, here's what he said. There's nothing 541 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 1: I can sit here and tell you. I can't sit 542 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,879 Speaker 1: here and talk to these mics or these cameras or 543 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,360 Speaker 1: anything that's going on to do any good. It's about actions. 544 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 1: It's about being accountable and doing what I'm going to 545 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 1: say instead of looking like a jackass. Uh. And this 546 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:25,360 Speaker 1: is after, of course, Jimmy Haslum came out and basically 547 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: dropped the hammer on Sunday night, saying, I don't care 548 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:30,880 Speaker 1: when you were drafted. If you're irresponsible, you' we're gonna 549 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: get you out of town more or less, he said, 550 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:34,920 Speaker 1: mark your takeaway, and what's going on in Cleveland. I 551 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,159 Speaker 1: like how you say that they entered the off season 552 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 1: seven and nine. I view it as like a fiery 553 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:43,399 Speaker 1: meteor hitting earth. That's how the second I thought you're 554 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,640 Speaker 1: gonna go positively like there now zero and zero because 555 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 1: that's gone. But no, you're right, it couldn't have ended worse. 556 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:50,640 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, the thing is, I don't want 557 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 1: us I don't want to come off sounding like a 558 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,439 Speaker 1: like a carmudgeon because I think during the whole summer 559 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,680 Speaker 1: when all this stuff was happening with Manzille, he's floating 560 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,679 Speaker 1: on a swan with a bottle of champagne over purple waters, 561 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,880 Speaker 1: like all those things are We over and over said 562 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,680 Speaker 1: not a big deal, not a big deal on the field, 563 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: right and let him do it. It was it was 564 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: many things. I mean. This to me, though, feels just 565 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:17,920 Speaker 1: wildly tone deaf, because unless you're just a total con man. 566 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: Two times in less than a week, You've gone on 567 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: this long soliloquy about how you've woken up and you 568 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 1: understand what your career is about, and you've grown up 569 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 1: and it's time to start a new and then bang 570 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 1: in theory. According to this reporters down in South Beach, 571 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 1: you know, dancing with this this short haired woman. I 572 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: don't know, you know what it sounds like to me. 573 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 1: It's like and I don't know why. The length of 574 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 1: the hair, she's very striking short hair, among others. It 575 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 1: reminds me of of speaking to your kid brother and 576 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 1: trying to give him a pep talk, and he says 577 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 1: all the right things, dude, and you think like you're 578 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 1: getting through to him, and more importantly, he it seems 579 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: like he thinks he's getting through to himself. But then 580 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 1: when the time comes to act, he can't do it 581 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,960 Speaker 1: because he doesn't have the maturity. I have a different analogy. 582 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 1: Every time I've put myself through a personal boot camp 583 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: out of self reflection, I've had to have one last 584 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 1: party before I get it out of my system. Has 585 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 1: a lot more parties to come. He literally made a 586 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 1: big speech about how he has to take it more 587 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: serious days before he got fined and helped you Tuesday. 588 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 1: He said that Friday he went out all the people 589 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,479 Speaker 1: in West I've been to the standing people were never 590 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:39,959 Speaker 1: paying us millions of dollars. I'm if I when when 591 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 1: I was sleeping one off, security didn't come pull me in. 592 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: And when you listen to Mike Patton and Jim Jim 593 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 1: has him talk, you just wonder. He's like, it's not 594 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: like he's going to have a long leash next year. 595 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 1: It's not like, Okay, this is the starter until he 596 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 1: messes up. He who knows he might not play very 597 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: much for the Browns. We don't know that's possible. How 598 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 1: could they believe that he's their starter? I don't think 599 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: that you all and downstairs people are saying, you don't understand, 600 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 1: like Tom Brady, Brett Farve, all these guys, Peyton Manning 601 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 1: when they were twenty two, twenty three, they partied like crazy. 602 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 1: They also, we're fantastic on the field. We've not seen 603 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 1: that for Manzelli, show no hint of that. I think 604 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 1: there'd be a total air of forgiveness if he were 605 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: out over six and one this season and then he 606 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 1: goes to South Beach, Hell, yeah, go do what you 607 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: want to do, but instead you put seven putrid quarters 608 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 1: on tape, and then you continue to do this. You 609 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 1: don't seem serious about your career. And I think for 610 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 1: a fan base that this is the thing. They're gonna 611 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 1: probably at some point part ways with Manzell and Josh Gordon, 612 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 1: and then we're gonna have to see a bunch of long, 613 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 1: beautiful pieces about how Josh Gordon revived his career in 614 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 1: New England and has an eighteen hundred yard campaign oh 615 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:54,720 Speaker 1: in Manzil on his second chance. That's how it because 616 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 1: it's because bad teams are often like they draft these players, 617 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 1: they go through their their bumps there and then they 618 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 1: go succeed somewhere else. It's like Cleveland's running out of 619 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 1: patients with Josh Gordon, but another team will pick him up. Gordon, 620 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 1: I buy. But tell me all those Great Brown's quarterbacks 621 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 1: that succeeded after they left Cleveland. I mean they just 622 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: stunk to begin. I'm not talking about Great Brown's quarterback. 623 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 1: And I have a a sizzler and it not or 624 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 1: Assessler and one I don't get excited about. But I 625 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 1: think Josh Gordon is a chronic knucklehead. I think he'll 626 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 1: end up parting ways of the Cleveland, but I see 627 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 1: him out of the league in a couple of years. 628 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 1: He doesn't seem like he getting drafted like multiple offspring 629 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: of Ryan Leaf here. Basically, alright, finally, one uh one 630 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 1: more bit of news. Uh. Tom Coughlin will be back 631 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: with the Giants. He got the official word from management 632 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 1: Giants Management. This after a season in which the Giants 633 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 1: finished six and ten, first time they've had back to 634 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 1: back losing records since Coughlin came aboard in two thousand four. 635 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 1: He's gonna be sixty nine by the time the two 636 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: thousand fifteen season starts, but the Giants still think he's 637 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: the guy to lead the team. I gets the right move. 638 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 1: I think he's still has the respect of the players, 639 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 1: and I don't think they're far away from contending, especially 640 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: with West's Boy really the guy. He has the penthouse 641 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 1: sweet and West's Boy stable boys, Odell Beckham transcending over everything. 642 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham is just giving everybody new life in New York. Coughlin, 643 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 1: Jerry Reese, that draft class looks like the best in 644 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 1: the NFL right now because of him. I have no 645 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 1: problem with him. Keeping him. I think it's refreshing to 646 00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 1: you know, go for continuity. With that said, they've made 647 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 1: the playoffs once in how many years, six once out 648 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 1: of six. They want their mediocre franchise I had son 649 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: to turn around. I mean, no, I agree, that's what 650 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,959 Speaker 1: I said. I think it's good that they kept him 651 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 1: because they have a chance to turn it around. But 652 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 1: Coughlin's track record for six years, that's not a small 653 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 1: sample size. That's Rex Ryan's entire tenure. That's you know, 654 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: a little less than Mike smith tenure in Atlanta has 655 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 1: been mediocre, big fat title in the middle, So that 656 00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:01,959 Speaker 1: that helps. Yeah, very yeah, that's the thing. I mean, 657 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 1: the two titles game wrote. I remember back in like 658 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 1: two thousand six listening to Sportstock Radio New York, and 659 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 1: I'm talking about uh is he's still the answer. Then 660 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 1: they win the title and then he has you know, 661 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 1: after the last title. It gives you more rope. The titles, 662 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 1: they means so much in terms of continuity with coaching 663 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 1: in other towns. I don't think they would though. I 664 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 1: don't think there's many organizations that would stick with their 665 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 1: coach after three straight non winning seasons, right, weren't they 666 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 1: eight and eight three years ago? And then two losing 667 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 1: seasons in a row. It's I think it's a well. 668 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:36,239 Speaker 1: I think the giants up top the organization is more 669 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 1: patient than some and that's been for almost a century now. Yeah, 670 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 1: and the Super Bowl will buy you a lot of rope, 671 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 1: I think. Alright, And that is it, gentlemen, for news 672 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: a Palooza. I'm Russell Wilson. Oh my god. I met 673 00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 1: after by the way, after after the show T me like, oh, 674 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 1: edit that out, and no, that's staying in as a testament. Oh, 675 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 1: he was dealing with other things at the time. I 676 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: act that you are a factory. What's wrong with you? Alright? 677 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: So now that's the news, that's what's happening. And now 678 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,759 Speaker 1: we're gonna play our game that we love. Uh it's 679 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,279 Speaker 1: a game that also has a sound drop. In case 680 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 1: TD was aware, it's called was more likely all right, 681 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:33,720 Speaker 1: And this is the game where I present two different 682 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 1: options and I and then we choose which one we 683 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 1: would rather do. And as I promised earlier, we will 684 00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 1: have a special guest for this segment. He came down 685 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: series was working down in the newsroom. Uh, you know, 686 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 1: dropping funny bits, very funny man, famed comedy writer and 687 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:54,719 Speaker 1: uh and his name is Dave Damacheck. What's what's up 688 00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 1: with that? Of the Dave Damagecheck Football program and other 689 00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 1: assorted programs. Dave, welcome to the an me. I'm stuck 690 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:05,160 Speaker 1: here on the dirty side of the glass with black tie. Well, 691 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: you know how uncomfortable this is for me. All these 692 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 1: producer people, all these below the liners have there's a 693 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 1: hard and fast rule that they're not to talk to 694 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 1: me now. I'm now, I'm eighteen twenty away from this 695 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 1: drizzle shooting daggers right now. By the way, it is 696 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,360 Speaker 1: a little weird. TD. Can't we get a fifth microphone 697 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 1: in here? He doesn't have a microphone now he gave 698 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 1: it to Day all right, the podcast is taking a 699 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:29,880 Speaker 1: turn up with us now, no more black tie on 700 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 1: the mic. Alright, Damnack. So you we I invited you, 701 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 1: We would love to. We love having you in the 702 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:38,919 Speaker 1: studio or close to the studio. You know the rules 703 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 1: of what's more likely I do. Okay, that's good, it's 704 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 1: very you can figure out very complicated. I bet you're 705 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,400 Speaker 1: gonna give me two items. Potentially, we're gonna have to 706 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 1: guess which is more likely? True, keeping you on your toes, 707 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 1: But you're right, You're right on it. So let's go. 708 00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,360 Speaker 1: I've not heard this podcast, but I think it's terrific. 709 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 1: It's still going. All right, here we go. Uh, let's 710 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 1: do it first. One, what more likely the Steelers beat 711 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:13,759 Speaker 1: the Ravens without Levy on Bell or the Bengals beat 712 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 1: the Colts without a J. Green. And let's start with 713 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 1: our guest Dave Damaschik. Well, I'll start by saying your 714 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 1: pronunciations of things as somebody who has ridiculed myself for 715 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:29,640 Speaker 1: the way I pronounced things bangles. This isn't the late eighties, 716 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 1: early nineties, she bop. We've been down this road. I 717 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 1: can either say it how I say it how I 718 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:37,799 Speaker 1: was raised to say. The Bengals or the Bengals. Those 719 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:39,839 Speaker 1: are the two choices. And that's the cheerleading trip. Don't 720 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: even get him started on The correct answer is the 721 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:48,279 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers. Because they're playing in hinds Field, both games 722 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 1: should be very close. Um, I absolutely could see both 723 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 1: road teams winning these games. But since you're saying what's 724 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 1: more likely, give me the team in the black jerseys 725 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:02,439 Speaker 1: playing at home stunner, Greg, I don't think this is tough. 726 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:05,040 Speaker 1: The Steelers are way more likely. I mean, and part 727 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 1: of me has a hard time thinking, is this the 728 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,760 Speaker 1: Ravens team that I really thought was great for about 729 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 1: eleven or twelve weeks, or is it the Ravens team 730 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 1: over the last month, which doesn't look like even a 731 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 1: below or an above average team. They can't move the 732 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 1: ball at all on offense anymore. I think they get 733 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:24,720 Speaker 1: blown out with her without Bell. Any answer that includes 734 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: the Bengals winning a playoff game as a sign of 735 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:31,479 Speaker 1: dementia and should be excluded. The Bengals don't win games 736 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 1: in January. They cannot have nice things. It's much more 737 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 1: likely that Steelers win without their best player. I picked 738 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 1: the Steelers to go to the super Bowl, so I 739 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 1: have to go Pittsburgh here, and Big Ben just beat 740 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 1: Cincinnati with a massive wild case of the runs, so 741 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 1: this feels obvious to me. NBC actually at one point 742 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:54,759 Speaker 1: followed Ben down off the sideline to the tunnel, and 743 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 1: then it looked like they were gonna follow down the 744 00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:58,960 Speaker 1: steps and to the bathroom stall, and I don't want 745 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 1: to go there. Hey, Chris, let's pan out, get out 746 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 1: of there. Now, I contend uh that I would rather 747 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,600 Speaker 1: now listen, I've never had a leg injury and tried 748 00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:14,239 Speaker 1: to do anything athletic um with it, but I've had 749 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,800 Speaker 1: a bad belly before, and the thought of trying to 750 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 1: play football with it is terrifying. I think I'd rather 751 00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:27,279 Speaker 1: go strain calf than the stomach flew on National TV LF. 752 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:32,239 Speaker 1: You know what, Adam Rank said this on my podcast, 753 00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,440 Speaker 1: and he's absolutely right. When you see here the name 754 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 1: Donovan McNabb. Now, McNabb didn't win any Super Bowls, but 755 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 1: of course I had a nice career. The first thing 756 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:43,239 Speaker 1: you think about is him puking on the field. That's 757 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:45,560 Speaker 1: nothing compared to what could have happened the big ben 758 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:49,320 Speaker 1: out there. Imagine if he messes himself, there's there's no 759 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,800 Speaker 1: coming back. You never come back from that. You know, 760 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:55,680 Speaker 1: you maybe retire right then and there and and and 761 00:38:55,880 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 1: become J D. Salinger for the Goodbye Dan. Let's hear 762 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:03,799 Speaker 1: from the pro Dalton camp on this one. Yes, what's 763 00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:05,719 Speaker 1: your choice? I forgot what it was again? What are 764 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:07,760 Speaker 1: we talking about? Who's more likely to win? The Steelers 765 00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 1: are the ban Dan needs to come back after a 766 00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:13,920 Speaker 1: clean sweep here he wants more a disagreement. Uh, the Steelers. 767 00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:16,000 Speaker 1: I love Big Ben in the playoffs. I'm not going 768 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:19,359 Speaker 1: against him. Uh, but you know, I don't know. Let's 769 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:25,359 Speaker 1: move on. What more likely? Speaking of Eddie Dalton, Andy 770 00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 1: Dalton goes on a Joe Flacco like postseason run. Or 771 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,520 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers has three tone turnovers and a one and 772 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:37,799 Speaker 1: done loss in the divisional playoffs. Aaron Rodgers has three turnovers. Yeah, 773 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:41,200 Speaker 1: I got it happening against the Panthers with a bang 774 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:44,759 Speaker 1: up calf. Panthers, a team who just had two pick 775 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,240 Speaker 1: six And for that to happen, you need the Lions 776 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:49,239 Speaker 1: to win in Dallas, the Panthers to win this week, 777 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:51,880 Speaker 1: and then the Panthers to force three turnovers against Rogers. 778 00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:55,800 Speaker 1: Not all that unlikely. I'm not going down the Panthers Avenue, 779 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:58,840 Speaker 1: but I go Rogers because this has happened to the 780 00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:02,080 Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers before, where they stumbled after a fifteen 781 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:04,719 Speaker 1: and one season. They got blown out in one team. Yeah, 782 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,320 Speaker 1: but that wasn't Aaron Rodgers fault. That was his pass 783 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 1: catchers or or alleged interceptions. Well, Aaron Rodgers has not 784 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,960 Speaker 1: thrown an interception in Lambo since the likelihood of him 785 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:20,879 Speaker 1: throwing three in one game against the media, Panthers team 786 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 1: or anyone else. The opposite is against earth rules, though, 787 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:27,440 Speaker 1: Which was Dalton going onto a Super Bowl run? Yeah, 788 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 1: well you call it, Which is why I think you 789 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 1: have to go with Rogers, because the Flacco like run 790 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:34,320 Speaker 1: not only means the team wins the Super Bowl. I 791 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:38,200 Speaker 1: think that could happen. That's more likely than Dalton going 792 00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:40,520 Speaker 1: on a run where he looks like the best quarterback 793 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 1: in the league, because that's what Flacco did for four weeks. 794 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:46,319 Speaker 1: But that was it was, it was, But I think 795 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 1: Dalton would be even more shake Here's your path to 796 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:51,040 Speaker 1: the Bengals doing that and what makes it seem a 797 00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:55,280 Speaker 1: little more realistic. The Bengals go into Indianapolis, who clearly 798 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:58,000 Speaker 1: is a soft team. The good Magics care business there. 799 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,279 Speaker 1: Move on now the ray evens. Here's the requirement. The 800 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 1: Ravens then need to be Pittsburgh. If they do, they 801 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 1: go to Foxborough the next week. We know that Tom 802 00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:11,279 Speaker 1: Brady's kryptonite in the postseason has been Flacco's Ravens. They 803 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,160 Speaker 1: knock off the Patriots in the Divisional round, while the 804 00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:18,600 Speaker 1: Bengals go into Denver, who they just beat two weeks 805 00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:21,320 Speaker 1: because sounds like ann listen to what I'm telling you. 806 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:24,640 Speaker 1: Don't interrupt me. Now listen. They take care of the Broncos, 807 00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:28,120 Speaker 1: then it's Broncos v. I mean, I'm sorry. Then it's 808 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:33,880 Speaker 1: Ravens v. Bengals or Bengals uh in Kentucky for the championship. 809 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:39,600 Speaker 1: They walk like an Egyptian all the way to the Glendale, Arizona. 810 00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:46,279 Speaker 1: The Bengals reference walk like an Egyptian. Thank you, no 811 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:50,040 Speaker 1: one that no one's even listening. That's the difference between 812 00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:52,720 Speaker 1: sex podcasts and ours is I guess Dan can interrupt 813 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,800 Speaker 1: you on this podcast. We saw what happened when I 814 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:59,759 Speaker 1: did the fire in Dave's eyes? Dare you the one 815 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 1: thing to keep an eye on with Aaron Rodgers and 816 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 1: he was on espn UM Milwaukee today. It sounds like 817 00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 1: that calf is messed up the injury that he suffered. 818 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,279 Speaker 1: First of all, he thought he blew blew as achilles 819 00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:12,920 Speaker 1: when he dropped to the turf initially, That's how serious 820 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 1: he thought it was. He said that the injuries in 821 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 1: a different spot on the calf than it was the 822 00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 1: initial one, and it was bad against the Bucks. Yeah, 823 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 1: and he said, and he said that it's still pretty 824 00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 1: you know, it's a little bit better, he said, Obviously 825 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,360 Speaker 1: the buy is a huge advantage for getting healthy, but 826 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: that's a messed up wheel. And as we enter the playoffs, 827 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:32,840 Speaker 1: that's a big that's a big situation to watch. He 828 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:34,839 Speaker 1: can't he's not going to play a good defense till 829 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 1: the title game because even if Dallas goes in there, 830 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:40,360 Speaker 1: they're not picking up off. I'm not buying the Panthers. 831 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 1: Their defense is about where they were last year. Right now, 832 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:50,000 Speaker 1: what more likely and Dominican sues double steph on Aaron 833 00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:53,880 Speaker 1: Rodgers was accidental? Or Justin Bieber wins a humanitarian award 834 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,600 Speaker 1: for his work to eradicate ebol at the epidemic in 835 00:42:56,680 --> 00:43:00,239 Speaker 1: West Africa. What's more likely? I think it's more likely 836 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:03,839 Speaker 1: that Who's step was accidental? I can buy that. I mean, 837 00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:06,160 Speaker 1: it's probably not likely, but it's more likely than west. 838 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 1: Justin Bieber is a pop star, He's not a good 839 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:14,360 Speaker 1: I know, I'll go with the Bieber philanthropic scenario. You know, 840 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:17,640 Speaker 1: I what, First of all, I know this is uh, 841 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 1: this is something that a lot of people like to 842 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 1: point out. But for the record, and Dominican Sue and 843 00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 1: any other twenty one century NFL player must there. His 844 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:29,440 Speaker 1: head must be spinning right now as he watches NFL 845 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 1: Network and see's a football life honoring mean Joe Green 846 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:40,560 Speaker 1: and Dick Budgets and Deacon Jones. It's it's it's a logo. 847 00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 1: But but but you know, but then we have to 848 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:44,600 Speaker 1: wring our hands. What this poor young man. I mean, 849 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:46,400 Speaker 1: he's he's got to get his head on straight. I 850 00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:47,759 Speaker 1: don't know what he I don't know what he's doing. 851 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 1: I think Keith Miller would be like, there's no place 852 00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:54,120 Speaker 1: in the game for this type of behavior of fame 853 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:57,520 Speaker 1: though a Fitzburgh Steeler a legend by the way to 854 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 1: doing it. Um, but uh yeah, I think Sue, you know, 855 00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 1: he should be more aware. Obviously, times have changed, just 856 00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:08,600 Speaker 1: like Cecil was saying about Johnny Football, times have changed 857 00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 1: in their cell phones around capturing your your nefarious deeds. 858 00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:15,560 Speaker 1: All that said, when you watch the replay, I kind 859 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:18,239 Speaker 1: of buy that maybe the lineman did kind of have 860 00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:20,279 Speaker 1: a hold of Sue and he was trying to get 861 00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:23,320 Speaker 1: his balance and did accidentally step back into Rogers a 862 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:26,160 Speaker 1: second time. I mean, if I, if I, if I 863 00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:29,040 Speaker 1: had the wager all my money. If I had to 864 00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,800 Speaker 1: bet all three and eighty seven dollars I have, I 865 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,040 Speaker 1: would say that he did it on purpose. But it's 866 00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:37,560 Speaker 1: not impossible that that was an accident. I'd go Beiber. 867 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:40,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I believe in redemption stories, and I think 868 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 1: this kid can turn around. What more likely, speaking of Beaver, 869 00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 1: the NFL's Beaver Johnny Manziel, he starts a postseason game 870 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:52,840 Speaker 1: with the Browns at any point in his career, or 871 00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:57,400 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning beats Tom Brady and Foxboro next month. No, 872 00:44:57,600 --> 00:45:01,799 Speaker 1: this is easy, really, well, Number one, we're talking about 873 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:04,759 Speaker 1: two teams that are in my week scenarios already in 874 00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:08,760 Speaker 1: the playoffs. I like the idea of Manning beating Brady 875 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 1: and Foxburg. In the concept of Manzell going to the 876 00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:14,719 Speaker 1: postseason with the Browns, that's which sounds like utter lunasting 877 00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:18,799 Speaker 1: not playing well the last few weeks. By all right, 878 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:21,439 Speaker 1: that's fair, But when does Manning. Everyone just got take 879 00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:23,360 Speaker 1: They gotta take care of one of these a f 880 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:25,120 Speaker 1: C wild card teams. I don't think it's gonna be 881 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,240 Speaker 1: brown nine and seven and next year and they sneak 882 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:30,239 Speaker 1: in the playoffs and get bombed out with there's a 883 00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 1: lot of assumptions going on right there. How is Manning 884 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:34,640 Speaker 1: gonna win in New England if he never plays another 885 00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:37,640 Speaker 1: game pass next week? As you have posited on this 886 00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:40,680 Speaker 1: very well, you said before the season even started, right, 887 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:43,319 Speaker 1: and I believe that I'm hedging my bets one of these, 888 00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:45,960 Speaker 1: one of these two will be correct. The correct answer 889 00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:49,799 Speaker 1: is Johnny Football starting game for Cleveland. I like Mike 890 00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:52,520 Speaker 1: Patton Nay, I love him if I'm a Browns fan. 891 00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:55,960 Speaker 1: I like the way he's comported himself throughout a rugged 892 00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:00,160 Speaker 1: a lot of guys in their rookie coaching scene and 893 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:03,600 Speaker 1: wouldn't have handled things the way he did so successfully. 894 00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:05,680 Speaker 1: I know that you can shoot some holes and things 895 00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:07,960 Speaker 1: that have happened in the last couple of weeks. Um. 896 00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:10,000 Speaker 1: I like that team. I like the defense. I like 897 00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:11,880 Speaker 1: their ability to run the ball. I think that they 898 00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:13,360 Speaker 1: could rise all the way to the top of the 899 00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:17,840 Speaker 1: division next year. Meantime, it's an impossibility that Peyton is 900 00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:20,560 Speaker 1: going to be Tom Brady. The only way to phrase 901 00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:23,719 Speaker 1: that correctly is C. J. Anderson in the running game 902 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,720 Speaker 1: is going to beat them. It's definitely Manning and Manning's 903 00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,040 Speaker 1: not gonna beat them by slinging the ball around in 904 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:32,680 Speaker 1: Lake James. I think anyone watched Manzel play in this room. 905 00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:35,919 Speaker 1: I think people are sleeping on the Broncos a little 906 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:38,360 Speaker 1: bit as that team that to me, it wouldn't surprise 907 00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:40,600 Speaker 1: me at off they win the Super Bowl. But everyone's 908 00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:42,800 Speaker 1: kind of discounting them because they have a bad December, 909 00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:45,359 Speaker 1: which happens every year. Because when you look at that team, 910 00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:46,879 Speaker 1: I think they can be one of the best three 911 00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 1: or four defenses in the league. Manning's maybe never had 912 00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:52,359 Speaker 1: that good of defense. You have a great running game, 913 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 1: he can play well enough. I mean, it wouldn't surprise 914 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:56,640 Speaker 1: me if they win. Mark, did you have a what's 915 00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:59,719 Speaker 1: more likely? Before we go? I do? I do have 916 00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:05,360 Speaker 1: one one more? Okay, Mark Trustman leaves football to author 917 00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:13,960 Speaker 1: a novel on nautical ponies or or Chris Wesley Lure's 918 00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:17,200 Speaker 1: Fevered Man crush Odell Beckham away from the Giants for 919 00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:21,279 Speaker 1: a nineteen month trip to Eurasia, where the two will 920 00:47:21,360 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 1: live in youth hostels, walk sunflower seeds, and read from 921 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:30,920 Speaker 1: the journals of Jewel the Van Living Songstress. Definitely anything 922 00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:34,800 Speaker 1: West Beckham love. Yeah, that's where I went. Well, the 923 00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 1: Jewel thing really clinched it because you know, if West 924 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:40,000 Speaker 1: is going on a chip, he's not leaving without a 925 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:46,080 Speaker 1: little jewel. Well, I'm picking Mark Trestman Aquatic Ponies route 926 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 1: because I just like to watch O'Dell Beckham on Game 927 00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:50,879 Speaker 1: Are You One? And I don't want to hang out 928 00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:53,160 Speaker 1: with that guy. Oh really, I can't picture hanging out 929 00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:55,799 Speaker 1: with a twenty two year old. He's got a lot 930 00:47:55,840 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 1: of money. I think someone protests a little too month. 931 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:03,399 Speaker 1: I am gonna you know, I'm not gonna let West 932 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:08,320 Speaker 1: off the hook. I know what his heart wants on 933 00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:12,759 Speaker 1: the Greek Islands, the Greek Alan's the that jewel book 934 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:16,360 Speaker 1: of poetry. I'll always remember. Uh. She did an interview 935 00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:19,960 Speaker 1: with Kurt Loader then with MTV where Loader called her 936 00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:22,160 Speaker 1: out from making up a word and she like gave 937 00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:24,120 Speaker 1: him a dirty look and like cut the interview short. 938 00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:28,080 Speaker 1: She's very serious about her her production on the page. 939 00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:30,880 Speaker 1: I always thought that Loader guy was it. He was 940 00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 1: a little he was a little smarmy, let's be real 941 00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:34,960 Speaker 1: about I know, but he was like he's like the 942 00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:37,040 Speaker 1: Jim Gray of rock music. I was gonna say that 943 00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:39,520 Speaker 1: Tom Broke of MTV, but I love what he did 944 00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:43,320 Speaker 1: for tab of the Sreans career, good guy Chris Connolly 945 00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:49,799 Speaker 1: up here and everyone else exactly like Kennedy, Let's talk 946 00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:52,560 Speaker 1: Ariana Grande quickly to get the youth back in our 947 00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:55,520 Speaker 1: corner for this podcast.
