I don't know ever made 29 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: one thousand dollars bet we started the show tonight. Really 30 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 1: don't remember that. To one thousand bucks, you said, sure 31 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: we needed more smelling salts or caffeine or something. I 32 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: don't know. Montie's got smelling salts for you. She brings 33 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 1: them in every show, every show. She's got around every day, 34 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: different flavors and lavender. There's honey, that's just day. You 35 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: can buy the three pack for fifteen bucks. Is there 36 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: a chocolate flavor smelling salce. I haven't gone that deep 37 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: in the reservoir, because boy, that would really be something 38 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: that probably is chocolate flavored smelling salts. My chocolate flavored 39 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: smelling salt is usually a mocha. Yeah, it's not a 40 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: bad move, just smell. Anybody would go get a mocha. 41 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,839 Speaker 1: I don't know. I could go for an I could 42 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 1: go for a nine o'clock mocha. I could go for that. Yeah, 43 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,119 Speaker 1: someone can make a run to story. But they still 44 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: open at nine o'clock. I think the only ones would 45 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: be opened, Like are they opened? Well, I mean, look, 46 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: you keep defaulting to the ubiquitous Starbucks, which is why 47 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: we got into okay, or any any coffee places open 48 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: at nine o'clock preveyor a fine coffee. Yeah, well maybe, 49 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 1: I mean you go to Dunkin Donuts and get a 50 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: coffee anytime at night. But I mean, yeah, we're gonna 51 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: go get I mean I would drink, drink, drink, get 52 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: my drink. Gone, We're gonna get my drink. I'm gonna 53 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,359 Speaker 1: get gonna get that mocha. I'm gonna have some of that. Yeah, 54 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 1: we'll have to look into that, because I did find 55 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: that there are several individual team sponsors. There's no league 56 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: wide coffee. They've got the official blank blank blank of 57 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: the NFL coffee, but they do not have an official coffee. 58 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 1: That's interesting. Now, Yeah, okay, so the wan Beldez, okay, sure, 59 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: and the UH. I found this a little bit earlier 60 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: doing a due diligence because we're debating this earlier so 61 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,519 Speaker 1: it became this curiosity of well, is there a league 62 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: wide sponsor? And the answer is no, but we also 63 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: have there's no league. Yeah. Eighth and Roast is the 64 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,079 Speaker 1: official coffee partner of the Tennessee Titans. Oh okay, all right, 65 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: So those are the only two I found thus far. 66 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: Jan Valdez for the Rams. That's I think that's a 67 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: that's a void that can be filled. Here. Seems seems 68 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: like you're you're partnering up and buying, you know, and 69 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: you're saying that you know, you're You're not worried about 70 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: the NBA. You're more worried about, you know, Google and 71 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: other monstrous companies as your competitor. And what you're aspiring, 72 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: who's your official coffee provider, same as the smelling salts provider? 73 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: Really no, of course not, you idiot, Now you have 74 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 1: our own. I would assume that Seattle's Best be the Seahawks. 75 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: I assume all though, Wow, I don't know Seattle would 76 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: have Starbucks two, So that'd be difficult. Man. That's you 77 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: talk about a knockdown, drag out battle. Seattle's Best and 78 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: Starbucks good luck. Yeah, I don't think they have an 79 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 1: official coffee the loser gets coffee. Beam Day didn't have it. Hey, 80 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 1: if the money's green, I mean it all counts just 81 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 1: the same. But yeah, there's no official and Duncan is closed. 82 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, way to go three and a half minutes away, 83 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,160 Speaker 1: and it has been a clean game so far in 84 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: the w NBA. Would be the tonight went out of 85 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 1: Bilbo Baggins hitting the floor in a game three and 86 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 1: a half minutes away. Still surprise this. You know you 87 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: have the showcase game, but we have two baseball games. 88 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: White Sox make a little bit of a game out 89 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: of it. A couple of home runs. Uh here, we've 90 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: now got a to two game in the ninth as 91 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 1: O'Hearn Homers to make it a two two game. Josea Glaciers, 92 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: Oh mg, he's batting for the Trex. Meanwhile, I am 93 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: not nearly as concerned about the Matthew Stafford story as 94 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,919 Speaker 1: a lot of other people are. Right, So, Stafford's not 95 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: been practicing with the RAMS. He's been out, he's gone 96 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: to see a spine specialist. He was officially weak to 97 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: week a day ago, and today the story comes out 98 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 1: that the Rams they fully expect to have him for 99 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: week one of the NFL season, which is a bit 100 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: of a woe announcement. Not that, Okay, Matthew Safford's not 101 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: going to play that much in the preseason. He's thirty eight. Okay, 102 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 1: I'm worried about that. But whoa, all of a sudden, 103 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 1: the guy that, hey, he's week to week. We'll take 104 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: a look at him next week. Now we expect to 105 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 1: have him for week one. That's a bit of an 106 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 1: eyebrow raiser. That's a bit of whoa, whoa, whoa. Matthew 107 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: Stafford may not be ready, you expect to have him 108 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 1: for week one, because expecting to have him for week 109 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 1: one means you're not going to see him for a while, 110 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,559 Speaker 1: whether it's at practice or coming back or a clean 111 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: bill of health like that's gonna be a bit. So 112 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: that's a bit of an eyebrow raiser. Now, there's two 113 00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: big takeaways from this, and the first one is that 114 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 1: this is it? This year? Is it for Matthew Stafford 115 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: with the Rams, because every year has been a dance 116 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: with Stafford. I want more money, I want to stay. 117 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 1: He's still playing at a high level. But at some 118 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: point the Rams understand, all right, we're gonna need to 119 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: make a move. We need to make a change. We 120 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl. Matthew's been great and boy what 121 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 1: he brings to us the back half of seasons has 122 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,600 Speaker 1: been terrific. But he's been a back half of the 123 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 1: season guy, and eventually it's just gonna all fall apart 124 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: and Stafford's gonna be a guy that can't play, can't 125 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: be on the field, and the Rams don't want to 126 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: get stuck with the season of Oh we thought this 127 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: year would be okay with Stafford and now we wind 128 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: up being stuck because he either can't throw it anymore 129 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: or we can't stay on the field. Like now, he's 130 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,279 Speaker 1: had a back injury that has his status for Week 131 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: one up in the air. And it's been the offseason. 132 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:52,799 Speaker 1: It's not been where he got hurt during the season. 133 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 1: He got hit and you just throw your arms up 134 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 1: and go, what do you do? It's tackle football. This 135 00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 1: has been preseason. Stafford's gone to see a back specialist, 136 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: so bing that's the ring in the air. This is 137 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 1: gonna be the last year for Stafford with la right, 138 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: they have Jimmy Garoppolo as a backup. Now stets In 139 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: bends back with the team, but this year like this 140 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: is this is I feel pretty confident that this is 141 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: going to be the final year of Stafford with the Rams, 142 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: and then they're going to find a way and they 143 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 1: will move on to whatever is next with them quarterback 144 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: wise after this year. Yeah, he signed that two year 145 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: what was it, eighty some odd million dollar contract. I mean, 146 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: this is it, right, you're talking about, you know, becoming 147 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: an unrestricted free agent and moving on last year. A 148 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: lot of questions about he's thinking about retirement. No, no, no, 149 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 1: he had fifty plus million reasons to come back, and 150 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: he had a great run. Right. He had a four 151 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: game stretch that accounted for half of his touchdowns in 152 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: the regular season, and you can't deny the results. He 153 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: was great in the playoffs and gave them a big 154 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 1: chance late. But it's like we talk about with the Bengals, 155 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: at some point, you have to start to see and 156 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: well in spite of some injuries around you and trying 157 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 1: to work in a new offensive line and all of 158 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: those things that you did. He he ended up with 159 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: a If you just look at his overall stat line, 160 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: it was fairly pedestrian for the year, right, twenty touchdowns, 161 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: nothing to write home about. We had others that we 162 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: categorically dismissed that did much the same right, touchdowns across 163 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: the league weren't at the same level. So trying to 164 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: parse out what's good what's noise. But you're not gonna 165 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: pay him fifty five million to come back now, And 166 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: did you expect anything, Like we were talking with Jason 167 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: Cole last hour, It's not like you were expecting to 168 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: take heavy reps in any preseason games or really do 169 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,439 Speaker 1: any work. But the inability to practice at all, no, 170 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: that's not good. Yes, and getting Jimmy Garoppolo reps probably 171 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: comes back and is to your benefit later on whatever 172 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: is real and noise about his relationship with DeVante Adams 173 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 1: because we keep trotting out that footage from Las Veig guess, 174 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 1: which was fun theater, you know, behind the scenes and 175 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 1: on the sidelines and whatever else. But now it's the 176 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: moving forward. When you've got a guy taking up that 177 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: much of your cap, you've got a young team and 178 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 1: a lot of these guys are gonna need to get paid, right, 179 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 1: So you bringing him back unless he's doing a I'll 180 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: take half, which ain't gonna happen. You're gonna move on. 181 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 1: But the bigger question is okay, So now for this year, 182 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 1: you call me crazy, and I know Matthew Stafford is 183 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: Matthew Staffor you're crazy. But if Jimmy Garoppolo has to 184 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: play for a little while, the Rams will be fine, 185 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: all right, Number one, it's not the Stafford's been great 186 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: out of the shoot the last couple of years, not 187 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,679 Speaker 1: at all. But no matter what the Rams do, no 188 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: matter what button Sean McVay pushes, it's the right one. 189 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 1: He has always found the right way and the right 190 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: balance of players to bring in with a high end 191 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: guys who are high maintenance or older and talented, and 192 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 1: a young up and coming mix. And that's worked for 193 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: the better part of the last decade for the Rams. 194 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 1: They found the way to mix. They bring in some 195 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: crazy sometimes, but it works because they have young players 196 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: that all of a sudden show up out of nowhere 197 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: and it's wow, all of a sudden. Pooka Nakua is 198 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: a Pro Bowl wide receiver his first year. Kyen Williams 199 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: is a fifth round draft pick and is an afterthought 200 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 1: and now here. He is what probably a top seven 201 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: to eight running back in the game. Gets a big contract, 202 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: say right, like whatever, Sean McVeigh does. He presses the 203 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: right button, and he's not bringing in Jimmy Garoppolo to 204 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: be a back at to say, well, whatever, we need 205 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: a guy like he knows. Okay, Matthew Stafford isn't at 206 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 1: this point in his career. He had the health problems, 207 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: but that was a long time ago. But no, it's 208 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: at this point in his career. Okay, Stafford's not the 209 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 1: healthiest guy. He's not going to bring in somebody to 210 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: put on the field. He doesn't think can succeed in 211 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,079 Speaker 1: the system. And I have no doubt that if Jimmy 212 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 1: Garoppolo had to play, he would do absolutely fine in 213 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: this system with the rams, and they would not be 214 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 1: missing a lot because the rams, they have so many 215 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 1: interchangeable parts. Like Kyen Williams is terrific, but he made 216 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 1: it work with cam Akers. They signed eyes off the 217 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: street that come out and rush for fifty yards. And again, 218 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:04,559 Speaker 1: this guy's sitting on his couch and all of a 219 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 1: sudden he shows up, Hey, eight rushers for fifty five 220 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: yards in front. He was he wasn't even practicing, yep. 221 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 1: But that's what Sean McVeigh does. The system works, and 222 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 1: he knows the players that work in his system. He 223 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: knows what to get out of him. He's got such 224 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 1: an incredible eye for talent, whether it's older, middle of 225 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 1: the pack, younger. I have no doubt that if Jimmy 226 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 1: Garoppolo had to play for a little while, things would 227 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 1: be okay. Now you get down to Stetson Bennett, you 228 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 1: dont know what you're getting. But if Garoppolo's got a play, Yeah, 229 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 1: you talked about the connection he had, you know him 230 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: and DeVante Adams, and he's seen it. He's been to 231 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl, the Rams will be just fine. But 232 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,440 Speaker 1: that's the other thing. You've got proof of concept of 233 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: a guy that is he a world beater. No, but 234 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: you're not asking him to come in and throw fifty touchdowns. 235 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: You're not asking him to throw for forty five hundred 236 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: yards if he's got to play for an extended period 237 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: of time. Last year, Matthew Stafford, like I said, ten 238 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 1: of his touchdowns came in four games. A lot of 239 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: his yardage in those four games, important games. It was 240 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 1: a four game stretch with that huge with that huge 241 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: Buffalo game. But even in the playoffs, what are you 242 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: banking on your ability to control the ball and play defense. 243 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 1: That's what they're built to do. Right now. Jimmy Garoppolo 244 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: can do that for you. He can be that guy 245 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: to bridge it. Can he go out and win a shootout? 246 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 1: Probably not. You're probably in a difficult spot there, But 247 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: I'm not saying you wouldn't be there with Matthew Stafford 248 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: as well. He's not gonna come in and wing the 249 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: ball around. That's not how they were winning. It was 250 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 1: about operational efficiency. Don't turn the ball over. Kyron Williams 251 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 1: got paid commensurately for what he was able to do. 252 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 1: You've got Blake Korm. You're anticipating once again that you're 253 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 1: going to play defense and run the football. I like 254 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: that little Aaron Donald thing going off in the side. Hey, Micah, 255 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,679 Speaker 1: I might come out of retirement if you so you 256 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 1: throw that up in there. So that's all fun at 257 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: finding good chald who was what sleeping during the opening game? 258 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:57,679 Speaker 1: Right last year? There's a video of him watching the 259 00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 1: m Monday Night Football. He was sleeping. But go back 260 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,560 Speaker 1: to last year, there were multiple points where it looked 261 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: like this team was going to sell even when it 262 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 1: was first constructed. You and I doing shows and talking 263 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: about it's like, I don't know, it seems kind of 264 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 1: haphazard some of the reporting and what we're hearing of 265 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: how things were coming together in terms of the the 266 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: brain trust and GM and whatever. And it's worked, and 267 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,559 Speaker 1: they've they've pushed all the right buttons to this point. 268 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 1: You've got a defense that's young and hungry, with a 269 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 1: lot of guys that will become a household names before long. 270 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,959 Speaker 1: But you're also in a division that San Francisco. If 271 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: the band's back together and healthy, they're ready to play Arizona. 272 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 1: You and I have talked a bit about it. As 273 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 1: we start more in the preview, they did some things 274 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: that you kind of have to like, Seattle's not suddenly 275 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,679 Speaker 1: gonna fall off a cliff, even though it's an I mean, 276 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: it's ex jet now good. So all that all that 277 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 1: to say, you've got guys and a division that's gonna 278 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 1: be a lot more difficult to navigate, but you've got 279 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 1: a guy in Garoppolo who's seen it and who's work 280 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: through it. And then look, there's very few coaches I 281 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 1: trust more than Sean McVay with situations like this. He's 282 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: like he's at the top of the list like good. 283 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,439 Speaker 1: I think they could lose a quarter. But no, whatever 284 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 1: plan he has is gonna work, because every plan I've 285 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 1: seen him have has worked. Everything has worked, no matter 286 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 1: he put every single guy that's coming. And when you're 287 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 1: not useful, we move on. We bring somebody else. New 288 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: here comes somebody out of nowhere. They do it every 289 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 1: single year. It's amazing what the Rams have done. Just 290 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: don't turn the ball over. That defense will be good 291 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: enough to keep you in games. Exit out about a 292 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 1: fresca exit swollen dome.

Find your wins. Baby, jan Sono hit 324 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: a home run that looks good. Seven hundred what was 325 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: it seven eighty ish a million that you signed him for. Yeah, yeah, no, 326 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 1: he's been so you could say, now that's twenty six 327 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: home runs as I met. Yeah. No, and it's good 328 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 1: that at least we didn't get no hits. No, it's good. Yeah, 329 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: because really, look the embarrassment like when you're getting hit 330 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 1: in the ninth inning, it's embarrassing already. So it's almost 331 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: like you got no hit. The world is watching, but 332 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: you don't get no hit. Okay. The worst thing would 333 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: have been that if if they got no hit, is that, 334 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 1: how many times would Frostburg have played the final call 335 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: seven the game today? Yeah? I mean more than that, 336 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: I think I think you're being not saying we needed that. 337 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: We don't need that tight shirt. There was no. 338 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 2: Chances gets hit alive. 339 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 1: Didn't need it on the field and it's live, didn't 340 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: need it. Well, I mean it's marks the beginning of 341 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 1: a new NFL campaign. When we start hearing all that, 342 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 1: I mean that means we're at football season because it 343 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: goes into hibernation for a little while. Yeah, I don't 344 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:32,159 Speaker 1: know about that. I think, yeah, yeah, we get that, 345 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:36,400 Speaker 1: or the fail Mary or something else. Crazy. Really haven't 346 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: had that or tebow in a yea, we had tebow 347 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 1: just the other night. We had TBO just talk about. 348 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,919 Speaker 1: But it's a point of the return of football to 349 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:51,400 Speaker 1: where tebow becomes something that's on the brain. Yes, because 350 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: we've done months without it before the other day, sure, okay, 351 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 1: all right, that t ball Okay, we just had it 352 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 1: the other day. Likewise, the butt fumble we hadn't had 353 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 1: in a while. It's really when T shirt's paying attention, 354 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 1: that's really what it is. It's not about football. Might coffee. 355 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: That's where ready to go, President Button presle the buttons. Coffee, coffee, coffee, coffe, coffee, 356 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 1: CoFe coffee Cofeuh But I mean really, that would have 357 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 1: been the worst part of tonight would have been hearing 358 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 1: the final call and a no hitter for what Williams 359 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: has thrown on the one hundred and seventy eighth pitch 360 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 1: of the game, because boy, you knew the Guardians will 361 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,120 Speaker 1: leave him out there to finish it. He no hits 362 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: the new woodn'ts. I mean, really, when I saw him 363 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 1: at one hundred and ten hundred eleven pitches. I said, oh, 364 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: they're just gonna leave him out there for this note 365 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: he's gonna throw one hundred and twenty five pitches and 366 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: get this. No, you're nineteen and a half games back 367 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: in the division or no, yeah, nineteen and a half right, yeah, 368 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 1: you're forty five and sixty eight. Yeah, you're running him 369 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:48,959 Speaker 1: out there. As long as he's telling you there's no 370 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 1: twinge and he still has feeling in his arm, he's 371 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: going out there. Yeah. No, Well, the Guardians are better 372 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,920 Speaker 1: than that. They're they're better than that. But it's still sorry, 373 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 1: I'm looking at I'm sorry, looking at the White Sox. No, no, oh, hey, 374 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 1: come on, the White Socks are badly back. They're eight six. 375 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: It's eight six now, Sorry, I conflated my more runs 376 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: than they've scored the secondary teams. This congratulations on a 377 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:13,440 Speaker 1: six run night for it. I mean you're gonna lose, 378 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,679 Speaker 1: but congratulations a couple of home runs. I mean, you 379 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 1: may make it exciting, but yeah, Guardians are no good. No, 380 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 1: I mean, look, the Mets are now looking behind, going, hey, 381 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: five games above here, come to Marlins a little bit, 382 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 1: hang on a second. That would have been the worst 383 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 1: part of tonight. That would have worst probably, like okay, 384 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: because I really I thought about that. I'm going, all right, no, 385 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: no hitter. That means I don't have to hear the 386 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,880 Speaker 1: final call of this game a thousand times. So okay, well, 387 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: I mean he's still he only scored one run. It 388 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. We didn't get no hit. He didn't get 389 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 1: No that's the big thing. And tomorrow and tomorrow it's 390 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:47,639 Speaker 1: just a loss. Like to celebrate Williams start. Yeah, yeah, cool, 391 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,199 Speaker 1: you went eight and two thirds. That's great. Yeah, but 392 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,879 Speaker 1: it's just a loss. Yeah. So it's just a loss, 393 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: which we've had one of them. So it's a list 394 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,119 Speaker 1: of losses. Now you're not helped by the fact that 395 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:01,399 Speaker 1: the Yankees actually won a game. Now you're the spotlight 396 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 1: loser in New York. The Mets sucking, they can they 397 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 1: can no longer hide behind the Yankees, they can no 398 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 1: longer hide. Well, well, you have to stand up to 399 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,199 Speaker 1: the losses on your own. Everybody's cool, man. As long 400 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,400 Speaker 1: as the Yankees keep losing, we can we can lose 401 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 1: like this and oh no, no, no, no, Now we're 402 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: standing front and center. Okay, the Yankees one today. Now 403 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 1: are our foibles are all apparent? And now the sky 404 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,959 Speaker 1: is falling, of course. And look, the Mets have been terrible. 405 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 1: They haven't. They haven't gotten pasted a loss to the 406 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 1: Rays where they blew a six to one lead in 407 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 1: the middle of June. They've been like they're like eighteen 408 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: and twenty seven. They've been terrible for the better part 409 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 1: of two months. Yeah, bad man, today you lost to 410 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: a guy that's pretty good. Yeah, but it doesn't matter. 411 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 1: We lose, We lose the teams the guys are bad, 412 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. We the teams that are five hundred. These 413 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: teams that are about five hundred are coming in sweeping series. 414 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 1: It's not like, hey, if we come in got swept 415 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 1: by the Dodgers or got swept by the Astros. Okay, 416 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 1: I get that, but we're getting swept by teams that 417 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:57,920 Speaker 1: are five hundred. They gave up at the deadline. Yeah 418 00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 1: we're done. Sorry, Oh we're gonna come in and win 419 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 1: two out of three or you're getting excitable again. This 420 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 1: is the Mets have the same record right now as 421 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 1: they did when they went to the series in twenty fifteen. Yeah, okay, 422 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: I know it. Feels different. It feels it because we're 423 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 1: using the way different. No, it's it's a lot of baseball. Yeah, 424 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: play which is good or bad? Well, considering we're in 425 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,400 Speaker 1: a playoff spot, now it's good or bad. I mean 426 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 1: Williams is seven and four with a three one seven 427 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,200 Speaker 1: e ra. So he's good. He's not Kershaw in his prime. 428 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 1: He's not prime to grom where boys e ra is 429 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: one point three, he can get it under one. Now 430 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 1: you're doing that thing where you're grabbing the best of 431 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 1: what we've seen. But the Mets songs better than average. 432 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:43,640 Speaker 1: It's tough. What whatever, whatever talent level the other team 433 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Yeah, but yesterday, all of a sudden, it 434 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 1: was like you took a you know, a gummy to 435 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: mellow yourself out. It's like, you know, we're actually overachieving. 436 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 1: We're not really that good man. Mets gummies. Man, that's gummy. 437 00:21:57,880 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: Do they have it? Do they have an official CBD 438 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 1: gummy sponsored the Big shape? Mister Mets head? You have that, 439 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 1: mister Mets Head gummy? What's there's one that's got a difficulty, 440 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 1: that's one you're early having a bad day. You have 441 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 1: one that's extra strength, need an extra strength Mets gummy. 442 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 1: It's it's one of those days when mister Mets heads 443 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: just a little bit larger for when you really need. 444 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 1: But No, yesterday you were going into the well, we've 445 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 1: really overachieved because we've been hurt, we've had these problems yesterday, 446 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: and I told you that was gonna happen. You're gonna 447 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: fall back into the No, my expectations were, and this sucks. 448 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 1: And maybe you read a couple of more Jets articles 449 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: which puts you back into Hey, maybe the Mets aren't 450 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 1: so bad. I'm riding the lightning. Meanwhile, in another story, 451 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 1: now they're campaigning to be the halftime show for the 452 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,959 Speaker 1: super Bowl. Well, they got their own channel coming up 453 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 1: soon on serious Like the Metallica channel starts in like 454 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: a month or so. Yeah, you think they would have 455 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 1: had one by now. I think you would have done 456 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,959 Speaker 1: this a long time ago and just taken the cash 457 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: and just been done with it. They could really replace, 458 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 1: which is the one they could really place, like Octane, 459 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 1: which I'm like, every song is exactly the same. I 460 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 1: just remember that every song. But the last time the 461 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 1: super Bowl was up there in the Bay Area, they 462 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: played a show before the Super Bowl and we went 463 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 1: to a food truck. You had a beer and sat 464 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: and listened to the show from a perfect location. It's 465 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 1: like they put the food trucks where they figured out 466 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 1: where the acoustics were the best. Now you didn't have 467 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 1: the visuals, you ain't get the pyrotechnics, but man, it 468 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 1: sounded great. What a great show. And then we saw 469 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: Jefferson airplane. Right, wasn't it the one pill makes So 470 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,679 Speaker 1: if I didn't have enough today to worry about, now 471 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: I have to worry about the Patriots. Right. Oh, you 472 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 1: should have worried about them all better than you, even 473 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,879 Speaker 1: when they were bad. Yeah, they even stuck, they stunk. 474 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 1: We retired Belichick. He couldn't beat us in it was 475 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:03,400 Speaker 1: his last game in the NFL. To be fair, decided 476 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: to take as you know, like the old wrestling handicap match. 477 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 1: On one he took the guy that was a defensive 478 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 1: coordinator with the pencil behind his ear and said, look, 479 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 1: we're so confident, you suck. I'm gonna have that guy 480 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 1: and he's gonna be my offensive coordinator. We retired. He 481 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: was done. We retired to He walked off that field 482 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 1: for the last time with the big mask over his face, 483 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 1: the big woolen mask. Oh yeah, we retired Belichick, but 484 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 1: the cupboard had been bare. But here, but this is 485 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 1: why what concerns about the Patriots afterday And it's one word, 486 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 1: and you hear it a lot, and sometimes it's overstated, 487 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 1: but in this case it's not. And that's culture, right 488 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 1: everything you Jake Glazer comes on the show with us 489 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:46,880 Speaker 1: during football season all the time, and he talks about 490 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,399 Speaker 1: culture and he talks about teams that have the violent 491 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 1: culture that works for them and building team and building 492 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:57,159 Speaker 1: team camaraderie. And I'm happy and I get to the 493 00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 1: point where it's not so much for this year, but 494 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 1: after this year, boy, I really think there's a couple 495 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 1: of teams culture wise you're gonna be able to take 496 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 1: that next big step. Right, Like, I'm a firm believer 497 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 1: that Aaron Glenn in the culture he is setting with 498 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,440 Speaker 1: the Jets thirty year away from suddenly being a team 499 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 1: you have to take serious, right, He's got to come in, 500 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,399 Speaker 1: he's got to set things up. They're signing the players 501 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 1: they want to. He's building the culture. He's a great 502 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: culture builder. He learned about it with Dan Campbell. He 503 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:26,719 Speaker 1: gets Rave Reviews. I love everything about Aaron Glenn, everything, 504 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 1: what he's done, the anti Robert Sala. You're not gonna 505 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 1: see those the same mistakes. There's gonna be more accountability. 506 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: He came from the school of Bill Parcells. I love it. 507 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 1: Now this year they're gonna take their lumps, mainly because 508 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 1: Justin Field stinks. But next year I can see I 509 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:45,919 Speaker 1: can see that sort of Lions type rise because he 510 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,199 Speaker 1: knows how I'm this is how I'm gonna build my 511 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 1: program right why he was part of what they just 512 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:52,479 Speaker 1: didn't detroit it. But I just say I know what 513 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 1: to do. I know how we're gonna do it. It's 514 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 1: gonna be different, obviously, different personnel. I'm not gonna just 515 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 1: bring over I'm and Ross Saint Brown unless they don't 516 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,679 Speaker 1: want to pay him. But a year from now, I'm 517 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,399 Speaker 1: digging in that. And I feel the same way about 518 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: the Patriots. The Patriots are still a team that talent wise, 519 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 1: they're gonna need a little bit more. But seeing the 520 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: story today where Rabel goes in at the joint practice 521 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: today with the commanders to break up a fight and 522 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,640 Speaker 1: he comes out with a bloody cheek and he addresses 523 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 1: the team right after, like he's Mel Gibson in Brave Heart. 524 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: Let's go go bra and to see all the players 525 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 1: after practice just say glowing things about him, whether it 526 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 1: was to Mario Davis or Ramandre Stevenson, all these guys 527 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 1: just talking about what it meant for him to come 528 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 1: in and do this, to show them what it was like. 529 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 1: Drake May, you know, talked about it too. You can 530 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 1: tell that he is building the right culture in New 531 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 1: England right like like last year it wasn't the same, 532 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:49,160 Speaker 1: it wasn't working. You don't want to be the guy 533 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 1: that follows Bill Belichick, even though he left the cupboard 534 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,120 Speaker 1: empty for you in terms of talent. I'm gonna try 535 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: to win without any talent and when I go there's 536 00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 1: gonna be nobody there that's any good. But Drake May 537 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,199 Speaker 1: did flash at times last year and vrabel is he 538 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: was the number one guy I want. Hey, you can 539 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 1: go after a guy this offseason. You've seen Rabel winning 540 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:11,440 Speaker 1: situations in Tennessee where boy, he makes the right decisions, 541 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,199 Speaker 1: wins under the radar. Now he goes back to a 542 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,919 Speaker 1: team where he started as a player and he's getting 543 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: the buy in and just seeing the way the players 544 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: talked about him following what happened in practice today can 545 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: tell you they are following him. It's not a case of, well, 546 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:29,440 Speaker 1: the coaches here and we have to find our way 547 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 1: where we have to do our own thing on the 548 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,239 Speaker 1: field and kind of find a way to make it 549 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 1: mesh with the message the coaches are sending us, because 550 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 1: maybe we're not We're maybe we're not believing in the 551 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,359 Speaker 1: coaching staff as much, we're not believing in the message 552 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 1: as much. The message is a little muddled, and so 553 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 1: it's not quite on the same page. You can tell 554 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:47,879 Speaker 1: they're all on the same page with Rabel. So maybe 555 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 1: not this year because you need more talent in that building, 556 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:52,679 Speaker 1: but next year. Like at the same time, if I'm 557 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 1: believing in the Jets for this time next year with 558 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn setting the culture, I'm so believing in the 559 00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:59,679 Speaker 1: Vrabel and the Patriots for setting the culture. Stories like 560 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 1: this today just amp your legend. But you can see 561 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,880 Speaker 1: that they're they're already on board follow whatever verbel wants. Yeah, 562 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,159 Speaker 1: I think you look at it. A guy like Rabel, 563 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,879 Speaker 1: the Peltzer on the wall. He's a guy that's not 564 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,360 Speaker 1: that far removed and he's had a nice long coaching tenure, 565 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: but he's not that far removed towards like you know, 566 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 1: he was a player, and he has that mentality and 567 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:21,440 Speaker 1: he has that bit about him, the stuff we talk 568 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 1: with Jay Glazer about all the time. Can't wait for 569 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 1: he's back in the mix after his Glazer Palooza run 570 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 1: of training camps this year. But it's just the idea 571 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 1: of a guy that has been in NFL locker rooms, 572 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,879 Speaker 1: has played at the highest level, and he goes in 573 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 1: and it's a no nonsense approach. Right, you're coming in 574 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 1: and you know what he wants to do. It's not 575 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 1: about putting up fifty points a game. It's about grinding out, 576 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 1: not turning the ball over and playing defense. Cut from 577 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 1: that Belichick mold. That's how he won in Tennessee. It's 578 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: that same idea. Now, it's funny that you quote Romandre Stevenson. 579 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 1: First thing he's gotta do is he almost the football. Yeah, 580 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: he's gonna be sitting on his assy. Now he's gonna 581 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: be standing around next. Henry was saying great things about 582 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 1: it's like every single guy was just and. 583 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 2: It was more. 584 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 1: It was more. It was more so than just the Hey, 585 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: coach is crazy. Hey coach, this is you see the mentality. 586 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: That's what he's trying to impart to us. It's what 587 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 1: we're trying to get. This is not just boy coaches 588 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 1: not say that was kind of fun. This was wow. 589 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: You know, he's he's showing us. He's showing us exactly 590 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,959 Speaker 1: how he wants us to to act and how we 591 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 1: want to build this team. And we are completely on 592 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 1: board with betting odds. Right now, they're the second favorite 593 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,520 Speaker 1: in the division, far behind the Buffalo Bills, ahead of 594 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 1: whatever is going on with McDaniel and company in Miami. 595 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 1: Keep trying to parse out those words. And of course 596 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: your jets bringing up the rear. You can get them 597 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 1: at a at a good price at sixteen to eighteen 598 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: to one to win the division. All right, it's not bad. 599 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 1: That's so bad. And if Justin Fields completes more than 600 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: two passes in a practice, get better. Yeah, No, I 601 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: think you might be right about that. Today he was 602 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,560 Speaker 1: actually seven out of sixteen today. I think seven out 603 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 1: of sixteen. There were more things thrown on w NBA 604 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 1: courts tonight, oh than completions for Justin Fields. I think 605 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 1: you want to say they were they were about five 606 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: more interceptions than they were throwing. Yeah, they're over under wind. 607 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: Total is either five and a half or six and 608 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 1: a half, depending on you wasted time looking that up. 609 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 1: Over under it. I just want to know where my 610 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 1: under her threshold is. That's all always bet the under 611 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 1: Let's find out what's trending in the wide world of 612 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 1: sports with someone else who also most likely had a 613 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 1: better day than justin fields. It is Monty Belonga. 614 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, not too shabby. 615 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 1: Better day than justin field. Yeah, okay, hang it out 616 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 1: with us. That's gotta be plus exactly you exactly say. 617 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 1: You could say I had a flat tire, my car 618 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 1: got keyed, and the bank called me to say they 619 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 1: stole my identity, and you would still be having a 620 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 1: better day than justin fields. Probably facts sax that third one. 621 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 5: The last three games baseball have wrapped up bellas the 622 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 5: Padres came back to feet the Diamondbacks three to two, 623 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 5: scoring two runs in the ninth inning to complete this 624 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 5: comeback win. They are now just two games behind the 625 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 5: Dodgers in the NL West because the Dodgers earlier today 626 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 5: lost to the Cardinals at home five to three. 627 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 4: Show Tani did a little bit of everything. 628 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,479 Speaker 5: They handed out a World Series Otani ring to everybody 629 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 5: while most people in attendance, and he pitched four innings, 630 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 5: struck out a home run number thirty nine on the season, 631 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 5: which was also his thousandth career. 632 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 1: What a day.

Yeah, so happily. I 776 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,920 Speaker 1: think for the w NBA players, they can actually just 777 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:01,440 Speaker 1: talk about the game tonight. I mean, really, just just 778 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,399 Speaker 1: think about if everybody wore the Neon Green sneakers, if 779 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 1: they threw it on the floor, you wouldn't be able 780 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 1: to tell. You got a bunch of feet going around, 781 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:09,680 Speaker 1: you got twenty feet on the floor. At one point 782 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:11,480 Speaker 1: you Neon green would it would just fall in. You 783 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:12,839 Speaker 1: wouldn't be able to tell what it was. But how 784 00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:14,200 Speaker 1: bad is it that you've got to be and be 785 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 1: looking around, Like yesterday we watched it fly on to 786 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:22,239 Speaker 1: the court and you had to have Kelsey plumb booted off. 787 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,440 Speaker 1: But now it's the question of now you step on. 788 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 1: What did you think, because now you got all the 789 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 1: Neon Green shoes. Man, I might miss it if it 790 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:34,319 Speaker 1: comes flying in because we saw the odds. It was 791 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 1: Neon Green's taking off of the odds board, because that's 792 00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 1: the obvious. Now it's everything else, that's what's marketplace. Is 793 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 1: it the same person is the same person doing is 794 00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:48,880 Speaker 1: it some sort of an eighteen year old bit? Is 795 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,440 Speaker 1: it some sort of like well, not same person, but 796 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 1: is it the same group of people? 797 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 3: Like? 798 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,919 Speaker 1: Is it some sort of web thing where hey, people 799 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 1: are doing this all the like like the like I say, 800 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,759 Speaker 1: it's like a TikTok trend of Oh, people are doing 801 00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:02,880 Speaker 1: this at games. Now, people are doing this at schools, 802 00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:04,960 Speaker 1: people are doing this at coffee shops. It just becomes 803 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:07,399 Speaker 1: now part of that thing, Like is that what we're 804 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 1: seeing in this event? Hopefully it doesn't eventually be a 805 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,040 Speaker 1: fed and it will go away. But I hate to 806 00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 1: say it, but I mean, I think we're gonna see 807 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 1: it again. I just didn't think we'd see it tonight 808 00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:19,240 Speaker 1: because one game, everybody paying attention to it. If somebody 809 00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 1: doesn't gets caught because it's the one game on national TV, 810 00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,479 Speaker 1: it would be a really bad thing for the person 811 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 1: who did it, and so hey, the next time we'll 812 00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:29,919 Speaker 1: see it.
