This is a 0:01:08.000 --> 0:01:16.600 paid advertisement, all right. I don't get him maybe every 0:01:16.640 --> 0:01:17.319 six weeks. 0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:18.440 Love to have him more. 0:01:18.520 --> 0:01:22.560 Nick Wright, my buddy at FS one. We should say this. 0:01:23.600 --> 0:01:26.559 This just broke before we did this twenty minutes before. 0:01:26.600 --> 0:01:30.800 Bill Belichick three years, thirty million dollars will now coach 0:01:31.080 --> 0:01:37.200 North Carolina. I've said before he won forty four percent 0:01:37.240 --> 0:01:39.840 of his games in the NFL on two different teams 0:01:40.200 --> 0:01:45.560 franchises without Tom Brady. I mean, you know, four or 0:01:45.600 --> 0:01:49.280 five in Cleveland losing records first year, Bledsoe losing record, 0:01:49.400 --> 0:01:52.840 last two years, No Brady losing record. And I think 0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:55.960 the game culturally has changed. Players have more power. It's 0:01:56.000 --> 0:01:59.000 more of an offensive league. I don't see him being 0:01:59.080 --> 0:02:02.160 a huge hit in North Carolina the advantage. It's a 0:02:02.320 --> 0:02:07.000 terrible conference. It's just it's really bad. There's now if 0:02:07.000 --> 0:02:08.760 he went to the big ten of the SEC, I 0:02:08.800 --> 0:02:11.359 think he'd get crushed. Do you think he has any 0:02:11.360 --> 0:02:13.880 success at Carolina so well? 0:02:13.919 --> 0:02:16.760 I mean, listen, you obviously know the college game better 0:02:16.800 --> 0:02:20.360 than I do. Uh And but I had a similar instinct, 0:02:20.360 --> 0:02:22.440 which is the question is can you win the ACC 0:02:23.200 --> 0:02:25.680 or hell, you know, can you come and just make 0:02:25.720 --> 0:02:29.240 the ACC Championship game? Like the ACC got two teams 0:02:29.680 --> 0:02:32.760 in the playoff this year, right, Clemson and SMU, so 0:02:32.919 --> 0:02:35.200 like there's more than one. There's more than one path. 0:02:35.360 --> 0:02:39.320 I my instant reaction was not really about how good 0:02:39.360 --> 0:02:42.320 he's going to be at North Carolina. It's about how 0:02:42.480 --> 0:02:45.800 shocking this is. And this is like, to me, at least, 0:02:45.800 --> 0:02:50.480 this is shocking. I Colin, eleven months ago, you and 0:02:50.520 --> 0:02:54.720 I on TV and on the pod talked about should 0:02:54.800 --> 0:03:00.200 the following playoff teams, double digit win teams fire their 0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:04.520 head coach to bring in Bill Belichick? The Dallas Cowboys, 0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:08.880 the Philadelphia Eagles, the Buffalo Bills. It was a if 0:03:08.919 --> 0:03:10.960 they collapsed type of thing when it looked like the 0:03:11.000 --> 0:03:13.680 season was going going to go wrong. That was eleven 0:03:13.720 --> 0:03:18.320 months ago for it to be us to narratively be there, 0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:23.000 and now because I think he's yes, he's taking this 0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:27.640 because Legacy and his son and I get that. But 0:03:27.720 --> 0:03:31.760 I also think he got the message, buddy, you're probably 0:03:31.760 --> 0:03:35.560 going to be shut out of the NFL coaching church again. 0:03:36.320 --> 0:03:39.560 I assumed last year there would be a fight for 0:03:39.600 --> 0:03:44.440 Bill Belichick. Instead, he got one interview in Atlanta and 0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:47.440 they passed on him for a different defensive head coach. 0:03:48.320 --> 0:03:50.360 And so who had been fired? That to me is 0:03:50.720 --> 0:03:51.560 who had been fired? 0:03:51.640 --> 0:03:56.720 Right? That to me is shocking. And you know, you 0:03:56.960 --> 0:04:01.080 I don't want to say enjoy conspiracy seat theories because 0:04:01.080 --> 0:04:03.680 that's not it, but you enjoy kind of as I do, 0:04:04.320 --> 0:04:08.520 like why thinking about why did this happen? What could 0:04:08.560 --> 0:04:13.000 be going on behind the scenes. I do wonder how 0:04:13.080 --> 0:04:17.480 much poison was put in the ear of other NFL 0:04:17.560 --> 0:04:22.960 owners by Robert Krafft. Yeah, because for Belichick to truly 0:04:23.040 --> 0:04:26.840 believe no one is going to hire me, that to 0:04:26.880 --> 0:04:30.800 me is that is shocking, like truly truly shocking to 0:04:30.839 --> 0:04:34.360 where he preemptively takes this North Carolina job. 0:04:34.480 --> 0:04:38.359 Yeah. I think the message for me in this Belichick 0:04:38.440 --> 0:04:42.240 reminds me of Bobby Knight is that Bobby Knight was 0:04:42.320 --> 0:04:45.440 viewed in his prime as the best coach. He at 0:04:45.440 --> 0:04:52.320 times could be gruff, you know, mean spirited. In the end, 0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:56.720 could not grasp the new culture. Bobby Knight the one 0:04:56.800 --> 0:05:04.000 and done, you know Belichick player empowerment rule changes which 0:05:04.080 --> 0:05:08.520 Andy Reid has seamlessly bounced through like multiple different cultural 0:05:08.600 --> 0:05:13.520 changes in the NFL. And then at the end, basically 0:05:13.600 --> 0:05:15.240 Bobby Knight was just trying to get his son a 0:05:15.279 --> 0:05:18.840 head coaching job, and nobody would offer this former genius 0:05:18.920 --> 0:05:23.039 a job no legitimate school would. And that's Belichick, is 0:05:23.080 --> 0:05:25.719 that now he's been reduced to now it's three years 0:05:25.720 --> 0:05:30.000 and thirty million dollars, like Bobby Knight. Basically he's taking 0:05:30.000 --> 0:05:32.359 this job to set his son up for a job 0:05:32.800 --> 0:05:36.719 and can't get any legitimate offers. And I think it 0:05:37.080 --> 0:05:41.400 here's the parallel, is that Bobby was all about retaining power, 0:05:42.000 --> 0:05:44.920 and that was really at the heart of Bobby Knight's 0:05:45.279 --> 0:05:49.080 strength as virtue and his hindrance late is that nobody 0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:52.640 wanted to hire Bobby because you hadn't basically give total 0:05:52.640 --> 0:05:57.160 control to him. And that's Bill's problem. His personnel decisions 0:05:57.200 --> 0:06:00.880 are horrible. Now he's had a couple of defensive hits. 0:06:00.920 --> 0:06:03.919 He hasn't drafted an offensive Pro Bowl level player probably 0:06:03.960 --> 0:06:09.920 since Kronk. But it's it's the unwillingness of older successful 0:06:10.000 --> 0:06:14.120 men to relinquish any power, the need for control. 0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:18.279 So so let me so I do at some point 0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:21.080 because you're interested in this like I am, want to 0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:26.080 discuss how we think Belichick versus Andy is going to 0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:29.159 play out over the next three, five, ten years. But 0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:31.840 before we go to that, one of the things that 0:06:32.080 --> 0:06:34.039 I like doing when I'm on with you is kind 0:06:34.080 --> 0:06:37.880 of you know, I don't want to say straying from sports, 0:06:37.920 --> 0:06:42.359 but which go a lot of places. Does that worry you? 0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:47.160 For you? And by that, I mean because I think 0:06:47.200 --> 0:06:53.320 about it, which is like, man, so many legends across 0:06:53.440 --> 0:06:54.800 so many industries. 0:06:55.800 --> 0:07:01.760 The ending sucks, like the the I the I thought 0:07:01.760 --> 0:07:06.400 it was kind of unfair, and I vocally defended him 0:07:07.120 --> 0:07:10.640 on the show, But I think about broadcasting that there 0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:14.480 was in you know, in October, you know, there was 0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:18.320 a raining chorus on social media of you know who sucks? 0:07:18.960 --> 0:07:22.680 Al Michaels and Bob Costas. Ye what are those guys doing? 0:07:22.720 --> 0:07:24.760 And I'm like, you gotta be kidding me. These are 0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:28.840 like the legends of the industry. But Al was getting 0:07:28.840 --> 0:07:31.400 bad games, and people didn't like the way Bob called 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:33.560 baseball games, even though that's the way he called baseball 0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:37.240 games forever. And I'm like, well, that's that's not a 0:07:37.280 --> 0:07:40.760 great ending you brought up, Bobby Knight. I you know, 0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:46.160 most people don't get or don't execute Johnny Carson, and 0:07:46.240 --> 0:07:50.760 so when you see so many of these guys not 0:07:51.040 --> 0:07:54.480 figuring out an exit, like what is I'm not talking 0:07:54.640 --> 0:07:57.040 like you're not close to the end of your career. 0:07:57.520 --> 0:07:58.120 But you know what I. 0:07:58.160 --> 0:08:01.280 Mean, Like it's it bounced on my head, like why 0:08:01.320 --> 0:08:06.120 does nobody be why are people not okay leaving? Like 0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:09.480 He's accomplished everything, he's got all the money, he seems 0:08:09.520 --> 0:08:13.120 to be happy socially, Like I don't, I don't get it. 0:08:13.200 --> 0:08:16.920 Yeah, and it's concerning, Well, what did Johnny Carson have? 0:08:17.000 --> 0:08:19.840 Who had a great exit that the others didn't? Johnny 0:08:19.840 --> 0:08:23.520 Carson Productions. That's why I created the volume. I will 0:08:23.560 --> 0:08:27.680 manage and be an executive, not a broadcast on your 0:08:27.680 --> 0:08:30.160 own company. Yeah, so, and I enjoyed do that, so 0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:35.680 I created the volume largely so when networks are not interested, 0:08:35.800 --> 0:08:38.760 I will move into a management position. And I love 0:08:38.840 --> 0:08:41.400 that in a production position, that's what I like to do. 0:08:42.120 --> 0:08:45.160 So why do you? But so why do you think? Well, 0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:47.520 I think it was not on the board for Bill 0:08:47.679 --> 0:08:51.240 to be like when I'm done with the Patriots, I'm 0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:55.079 just done, Like I have six super Bowls, I've made 0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:57.960 twenty plus million for the last however many years, Like 0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:02.400 I'm seventy years old. I evidently want to date incredibly 0:09:02.480 --> 0:09:07.520 young women and travel Like why why is what that's 0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:10.199 fascinating to me? Like why you wouldn't just call it. 0:09:10.360 --> 0:09:14.280 Yeah. He probably doesn't have a ton of hobbies, although 0:09:14.280 --> 0:09:16.840 he does have a boat and he golfs, so he 0:09:16.880 --> 0:09:20.120 has enough. It's a good question. If Tom Brady would 0:09:20.160 --> 0:09:23.840 have left for Tampa and failed, I think he would 0:09:23.840 --> 0:09:26.800 have been more comfortable just saying it's over. We were 0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:29.079 great for each other and we were never quite the 0:09:29.120 --> 0:09:33.400 same without each other. But Brady Jettison's the Patriots wins 0:09:33.400 --> 0:09:35.760 a super Bowl first year with Tampa. 0:09:35.679 --> 0:09:38.400 And then almost wins an MVP and is also yeah, 0:09:38.440 --> 0:09:40.360 and is better than he was his last couple of 0:09:40.440 --> 0:09:41.400 years in New England. 0:09:41.480 --> 0:09:44.680 Yes, so I think that put that, and I don't 0:09:44.720 --> 0:09:50.640 think Bill would acknowledge that, But they are linked forever. Yep. 0:09:50.679 --> 0:09:55.520 Montana and Bill Walsh are linked forever, and Bird and 0:09:55.640 --> 0:09:59.040 Magic on different teams are linked forever. And so I 0:09:59.040 --> 0:10:02.920 think I think when Tom left and succeeded it puts it. 0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:06.080 It raises doubt about a guy that had five years 0:10:06.120 --> 0:10:08.600 in Cleveland, four of them losing lost in his first 0:10:08.679 --> 0:10:13.920 year with Drew Bledsoe starting and lost two years in 0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:16.760 a row, and kind of I mean Matt Patricia to 0:10:16.840 --> 0:10:19.520 offensive coordinator, it was a bit of a tone deaf 0:10:19.760 --> 0:10:22.440 clown show. And so I think I think I think 0:10:22.480 --> 0:10:27.640 there's I think that's part of it. I think we 0:10:27.720 --> 0:10:32.520 tend to and this is incredibly unhealthy. We tend to 0:10:32.559 --> 0:10:36.680 compare ourselves to others. And I think it's just my 0:10:36.960 --> 0:10:41.040 journey is much more Johnny Carson his production company, and oh, 0:10:41.080 --> 0:10:43.880 I've told you this before. My idol is Oprah. It's 0:10:43.960 --> 0:10:48.200 not a sportscaster, right, so her production company and Carson's 0:10:48.240 --> 0:10:51.719 production company is much more attractive to me as an 0:10:51.840 --> 0:10:55.320 ending than it is broadcasting when I'm seventy four. 0:10:55.640 --> 0:11:00.800 So yeah, I just I there's so many of and 0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:03.520 you see it, I mean, you're seeing it, I feel 0:11:03.559 --> 0:11:07.199 like right now with Aaron Rogers. Yeah, in a different way. 0:11:07.200 --> 0:11:09.520 And you see it with athletes more and it feels different, 0:11:09.559 --> 0:11:13.160 I guess because we're more used to it. And it's 0:11:13.280 --> 0:11:15.120 just like, Okay, it's a young man's game. You're not 0:11:15.160 --> 0:11:18.800 a young man. But it just I don't know if 0:11:18.800 --> 0:11:23.760 it's the fame, attention, money being all kind of addictive, 0:11:23.800 --> 0:11:28.920 but it is. Bill Belichick is probably going to be 0:11:29.160 --> 0:11:34.120 coaching in the fucking Pop Tarts Bowl next year, and 0:11:34.360 --> 0:11:43.400 that's that's that's unbelievable. Like, that's really unbelievable. When this 0:11:43.559 --> 0:11:48.880 time last year, I was discussing should the Eagles preemptively 0:11:49.000 --> 0:11:54.040 fire Nick Sirianni to hire Bill Belichick? Should the Bills 0:11:54.320 --> 0:11:58.360 fire Shown McDermott just to be the first market for 0:11:58.440 --> 0:12:03.960 Bill Belichick? And I don't know, man, Like, now, listen, 0:12:04.160 --> 0:12:07.520 somebody will dig this clip up in thirty years when 0:12:07.559 --> 0:12:11.000 I'm you know, when I'm doing Fortnite play by play 0:12:11.000 --> 0:12:13.520 on Twitch because nobody else will give me a job, 0:12:13.800 --> 0:12:15.600 They'll be like time comes for us all. 0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:16.640 But it is. 0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:22.320 Yeah, it's it's stunning. It's really stunning. And and I 0:12:22.559 --> 0:12:26.120 just I when I first saw the report a week 0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:30.760 ago and shout out to Inside Carolina dot Com, which 0:12:30.800 --> 0:12:35.760 beat everyone on this story by days every time. But 0:12:35.840 --> 0:12:38.679 when I first saw it, I was like, oh, so 0:12:38.840 --> 0:12:42.480 Inside Carolina dot Com is just as wrong as they 0:12:42.520 --> 0:12:45.200 can be and don't care. Yeah, and then it's like, wait, 0:12:45.240 --> 0:12:48.920 they're meeting in Manhattan for five hours. Wait he made 0:12:48.920 --> 0:12:53.000 a four hundred page organizational bible, like, oh, this is 0:12:53.040 --> 0:12:56.200 gonna happen, and now it's happening, which does bring me 0:12:56.720 --> 0:13:00.360 so the the Andy Reid thing. I only some people 0:13:00.360 --> 0:13:04.480 realize how close it is the Shula record. So Andy's 0:13:04.520 --> 0:13:08.120 at two ninety six, Shola is at three forty seven. 0:13:08.520 --> 0:13:12.760 Belichick's at three thirty three. So Andy is fifty one 0:13:12.840 --> 0:13:16.719 wins away. He has. Prior to this year, he had 0:13:16.720 --> 0:13:20.720 coached Mahomes for six years. They had ninety wins regular 0:13:20.760 --> 0:13:23.720 season and playoffs those six years, that's exactly fifteen a year. 0:13:24.360 --> 0:13:27.800 So if Andy coaches, you know, for three more years, 0:13:28.120 --> 0:13:30.760 he should be right there. And if he coaches for four, 0:13:30.880 --> 0:13:35.840 he'll have it. He's five playoff wins behind Bill. He'll 0:13:35.840 --> 0:13:37.720 get that in the next Siy would have, which is 0:13:37.720 --> 0:13:40.760 really remarkable when you consider you you'd think it would 0:13:40.760 --> 0:13:47.040 be thirty behind. It's remarkable, it's and so that's so 0:13:47.520 --> 0:13:50.920 he's going to unless he retires, and he just signed 0:13:50.920 --> 0:13:54.000 a new five year, one hundred million dollar deal, he's 0:13:54.080 --> 0:13:59.280 gonna catch him in playoff wins and in regular season wins. 0:13:59.679 --> 0:14:02.960 Let's just say he doesn't catch him in super bowls. 0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:06.440 Let's be conservative and say the Chiefs only win two 0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:09.000 of the next four and that and then he's done 0:14:09.040 --> 0:14:14.920 and he retires with five. Man, I think what's more 0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:20.480 compelling the one more super Bowl and that Belichick was 0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:23.720 three to zero against Andy in the playoffs, which counts 0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:28.720 including a super Bowl, or that Andy won divisions with 0:14:29.040 --> 0:14:33.760 four different quarterbacks at double digit win seasons with four 0:14:33.800 --> 0:14:37.760 different quarterbacks, made a super Bowl with a good but 0:14:37.880 --> 0:14:41.960 not great quarterback, and Belichick one, as you put it, 0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:46.680 forty five percent of his games across a decade of coaching. Yeah, 0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:50.480 plus when he didn't have you know one, they both 0:14:50.560 --> 0:14:55.440 had the two greatest quarterbacks ever one two two one. 0:14:55.240 --> 0:14:59.560 I think history is going to look more fondly upon Andy. Well, 0:14:59.600 --> 0:15:01.080 and You've saying this for a year. 0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:05.360 I've been saying if the CTE lawsuit had happened ten 0:15:05.440 --> 0:15:09.560 years earlier, Andy Reid would have a couple more Super 0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:12.160 Bowls and would be viewed as the best coach because 0:15:12.280 --> 0:15:17.200 things that were not only allowed, but were promoted during 0:15:17.320 --> 0:15:20.840 many of Belichick's years. Vicious head hunting hits, they were 0:15:20.880 --> 0:15:27.520 promoted coming coming up Sunday, outlawed the minute the game 0:15:28.440 --> 0:15:32.520 was the vicious violent hits were outlawed, which they should 0:15:32.560 --> 0:15:37.240 have been. If you look at medical concerns twenty five 0:15:37.320 --> 0:15:40.680 years earlier, that Belichick would have one or two or three, 0:15:41.160 --> 0:15:43.800 and that Andy would have six or seven or eight. 0:15:44.800 --> 0:15:47.680 I really believe that. So I think what it comes 0:15:47.680 --> 0:15:53.040 down to is a timing. Jeff Bezos would have been 0:15:53.080 --> 0:15:57.920 really successful, but the Internet and the retail giant allows 0:15:58.000 --> 0:16:02.080 him to be beyond the greatest bookstore owner ever, he 0:16:02.280 --> 0:16:05.560 is the greatest global retailer ever. So I think the 0:16:05.600 --> 0:16:08.360 timing is a big part of life. And I think 0:16:08.400 --> 0:16:15.560 Belichick is the beneficiary of a league which allowed basically 0:16:16.800 --> 0:16:20.800 the rules favor because years ago, thirty, forty, fifty years ago, 0:16:21.440 --> 0:16:25.680 what we considered great football was running backs and pounding 0:16:25.760 --> 0:16:30.080 hits and vicious tackles, and then you realized over time, wow, 0:16:30.760 --> 0:16:34.200 this is a bad look. We're losing lawsuits. What people 0:16:34.240 --> 0:16:38.120 really love is great quarterback play and offensive efficiency, and 0:16:38.160 --> 0:16:41.280 that's what drives the ratings. And so there's far more 0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:44.520 on television today and the audience and the platforms are broader, 0:16:44.600 --> 0:16:46.760 yet the ratings are greater than ever. How is that 0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:50.080 possible because the game is more aesthetically pleasing than thirty 0:16:50.160 --> 0:16:52.520 years ago. If you watch an old NFL game, it's 0:16:52.640 --> 0:16:56.680 kind of boring. I mean it's like four sets, seven plays. 0:16:57.080 --> 0:16:59.920 So as we have more options, it's one of the 0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:02.720 only sports for the ratings of skyrocketed over twenty five 0:17:02.800 --> 0:17:05.639 years and so the game now is it's purest and 0:17:05.800 --> 0:17:10.240 most aesthetically perfect, and Andy dominates the league. In fact, 0:17:10.480 --> 0:17:15.399 he not only dominates the league, but he often embarrasses 0:17:15.480 --> 0:17:17.399 the league. I think the only other coach in the 0:17:17.440 --> 0:17:20.400 league that has the ability to quickly make things great 0:17:20.480 --> 0:17:23.760 Sean Payton. Now, Shanahan's great, but he gets very tied 0:17:24.000 --> 0:17:26.760 to his play sheet. He can struggle lay in games. 0:17:26.880 --> 0:17:30.800 What Sean Payton's doing in Denver is WHOA what is 0:17:30.920 --> 0:17:34.080 happening here in that division? Like with a thin roster 0:17:34.200 --> 0:17:36.840 that was picked to win five games? And remember he 0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:39.800 went to the Saints. They were the Aints, they were 0:17:39.800 --> 0:17:43.320 worse than the Jets, and first year I think they 0:17:43.320 --> 0:17:46.080 got to the NFC Championship. So I mean Sean Payton 0:17:46.119 --> 0:17:48.680 and Andy. The difference is one has Mahomes, one has Grease. 0:17:48.800 --> 0:17:52.720 Both great, one transformational, the best talent all time, but 0:17:52.800 --> 0:17:56.919 both great. So I think I do consider you know, 0:17:56.960 --> 0:18:01.720 it's like saying Picasso or Monet if art only appreciated 0:18:01.800 --> 0:18:05.879 one for one time and another for another era. But 0:18:05.960 --> 0:18:08.239 I do think Andy's I think when I look at 0:18:08.280 --> 0:18:12.360 Andy and contextualize both, I'm like his ability to win 0:18:12.800 --> 0:18:18.040 more ways with more unique teams and coaches. Belichick, by 0:18:18.040 --> 0:18:20.840 the way, and always almost always went back to the 0:18:20.880 --> 0:18:23.919 same coaches. He had a system and it worked with 0:18:23.960 --> 0:18:27.160 one quarterback, well twofold one is. 0:18:27.560 --> 0:18:30.320 And again I don't know how much people weigh what 0:18:30.440 --> 0:18:33.640 was your coaching tree and their success, right, but Andy's 0:18:33.680 --> 0:18:36.840 coaching tree is like that to me, is like when 0:18:36.880 --> 0:18:41.359 we talk about great coaches historically and it's like, well, 0:18:41.400 --> 0:18:45.400 how much do you weigh that Mike Shanahan ultimately like 0:18:45.760 --> 0:18:50.040 his coaching tree is Kyle's, which is mcveigh's, which is 0:18:50.080 --> 0:18:51.919 the whole league, like you know what I mean, Like 0:18:51.960 --> 0:18:56.040 that's got a way in his greatness Andy. So that 0:18:56.040 --> 0:19:00.399 that part of Andy's thing where Bill obviously most of 0:19:00.680 --> 0:19:03.240 the guy who had the most success of his coaching 0:19:03.240 --> 0:19:06.120 tree as our friend Eric. And other than that, it's 0:19:06.160 --> 0:19:10.040 a lot of like really dim l like the people 0:19:10.040 --> 0:19:12.480 say Bill O'Brien, But Bill O'Brien wasn't really his coaching 0:19:12.520 --> 0:19:14.680 tree as much or right. He went to college first, 0:19:14.680 --> 0:19:17.360 I guess he was. Who's the person, oh, Vrabel, Bill 0:19:17.359 --> 0:19:19.919 O'Brien is his coaching tree. Verrabel people assigned to him, 0:19:19.960 --> 0:19:22.359 but Rabel never coached for him ver Abel played for him, 0:19:22.400 --> 0:19:25.680 went to Ohio State and it's now the coach there. Uh. 0:19:25.840 --> 0:19:29.280 But the other point that I wanted to make was Andy, 0:19:29.440 --> 0:19:34.640 did seem or does seem to guarantee you a floor 0:19:35.800 --> 0:19:37.320 that's like eight wins? 0:19:37.560 --> 0:19:38.000 Yeah? 0:19:38.000 --> 0:19:41.399 And Bill we've seen on the front end, in the 0:19:41.440 --> 0:19:44.560 middle with bloodsoe and on the back end, did not 0:19:45.320 --> 0:19:47.480 like now I do. I think he's the greatest defensive 0:19:47.520 --> 0:19:49.560 mind ever. And I'm not trying to like shit talk 0:19:49.600 --> 0:19:52.040 a guy who's, you know, clearly right now is the 0:19:52.040 --> 0:19:57.280 greatest coaching resume ever. But when I do wonder, and 0:19:57.280 --> 0:20:00.119 this is the last thing I'll say on it, did 0:20:00.280 --> 0:20:05.040 he have held out hope I'm going to get an 0:20:05.119 --> 0:20:10.560 NFL job if he was more convinced if I get 0:20:10.600 --> 0:20:14.520 Shula's record, I'm keeping it? Or did that not become 0:20:14.560 --> 0:20:16.399 as important when he's like hold on him in? 0:20:16.520 --> 0:20:16.920 Yeah? 0:20:17.000 --> 0:20:21.359 So if I passed Shula in twenty twenty six and 0:20:21.400 --> 0:20:25.480 then Andy laughs me in twenty twenty seven, what is it? Yeah? 0:20:25.520 --> 0:20:28.520 What you know? What I mean? Why does that matter 0:20:28.560 --> 0:20:29.000 as much? 0:20:29.040 --> 0:20:33.640 He wasn't getting great offers like Harbaugh got a Bosa, 0:20:34.200 --> 0:20:36.880 a left tackle and Herbert and a non medaling owner. 0:20:37.080 --> 0:20:39.479 That's a good job. Bill wasn't getting those orders. If 0:20:39.480 --> 0:20:42.440 Philadelphia was offered, I think he'd stay for six years 0:20:42.440 --> 0:20:45.879 because Howie Roseman Jeffrey Lourie a great roster. But when 0:20:45.880 --> 0:20:47.679 you're getting bad offers, then he can look at it 0:20:47.680 --> 0:20:49.720 and go. So I'll be a loser in Cleveland, I'll 0:20:49.720 --> 0:20:51.520 be a loser in blank and. 0:20:51.480 --> 0:20:53.399 I only want to New Orleans right right? 0:20:53.480 --> 0:20:56.879 But think about this. What if here's I'll cap it 0:20:56.920 --> 0:21:00.800 with this. Let's say Belichick and Andy Reader music producers. 0:21:01.160 --> 0:21:05.560 One creates the greatest band ever, but in two or 0:21:05.600 --> 0:21:12.000 three other bands he bombs. Andy Reid has a great band, 0:21:12.359 --> 0:21:17.679 but several other memorable quality bands as a producer, and 0:21:17.720 --> 0:21:21.280 you'd go, well, maybe maybe the reason the one guy 0:21:21.320 --> 0:21:23.760 had the greatest band he had the greatest lead singer. 0:21:24.440 --> 0:21:27.879 But this guy created multiple bands that are all time 0:21:28.600 --> 0:21:31.200 memorable musical acts and no. 0:21:31.840 --> 0:21:36.879 Flopslop, no flops matters to me about this today, and 0:21:37.000 --> 0:21:40.480 Wilds got angry with you. Wild's like nobody cares about 0:21:40.520 --> 0:21:43.320 how many losing seasons the guy had. I'm like, well, okay, 0:21:43.400 --> 0:21:47.560 maybe I was like, but they both coach for insane 0:21:47.640 --> 0:21:51.840 length of period time. Andy has three losing seasons and 0:21:51.880 --> 0:21:55.720 Bill has eight that is that's not nothing. It's not everything, 0:21:56.119 --> 0:21:58.680 but it's not nothing, right, it's something there. 0:22:01.440 --> 0:22:03.600 Well, it's the most wonderful time of the year for 0:22:03.640 --> 0:22:06.840 getting in on all the basketball, football hockey action at 0:22:06.920 --> 0:22:09.160 DraftKings Sports Book.

This is not 0:23:25.480 --> 0:23:27.520 a baseball topic. We don't talk a lot about it, 0:23:27.560 --> 0:23:32.480 but it's fascinating to me. So I'm agnostic on many things. 0:23:32.520 --> 0:23:36.320 I'm kind of an agnostic personality, from religion to almost anything. 0:23:37.080 --> 0:23:39.240 I tend to be just sort of I weigh information 0:23:39.560 --> 0:23:41.199 and I pick the side. I like, I don't have 0:23:41.240 --> 0:23:43.480 a lot of purity in me right Like, I don't 0:23:43.480 --> 0:23:45.240 have a lot of loyalty outside of my wife and 0:23:45.240 --> 0:23:50.000 my children and friends. But so baseball comes out with 0:23:50.080 --> 0:23:54.600 this golden bat concept where basically you could bryce Harper 0:23:54.640 --> 0:23:57.359 gets an extra at bat every game, or an Aaron Judge. 0:23:57.400 --> 0:23:58.960 You don't have to use it, but you can in 0:23:58.960 --> 0:24:02.600 a critical situation. And purists are bothered by this, and 0:24:02.640 --> 0:24:06.960 I'm fascinated by what purists are holding on to. And 0:24:07.000 --> 0:24:10.119 I've heard baseball people say, oh, I'll never watch another 0:24:10.160 --> 0:24:15.399 baseball game, as if Sandy Kofax's historic run is deluded 0:24:16.200 --> 0:24:20.200 by a new golden bat. At that concept in twenty 0:24:20.200 --> 0:24:22.960 twenty four, it's it's almost like saying it's not perfectly analogous, 0:24:22.960 --> 0:24:27.680 but gay marriage ruins the sanctity of previous marriage. Well, 0:24:27.800 --> 0:24:29.840
