24
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 2: Though, Brooks Robinson and Jim Pie Brooks Robinson and Jim

25
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 2: Palmer were my two all time favorites. That's why I

26
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 2: were always in More seven and twenty two because I

27
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 2: was in I was Burt Jones was seven, but I

28
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 2: was my favorite, one of my favorite quarterbacks. I grew

29
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 2: up with him in the seventies. So Burt Jones football

30
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 2: was seven, then Palmer twenty two, and then Brooks. I

31
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,680
Speaker 2: wore five at Brooks was my and I got no Brooks.

32
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 2: You know, groot a great guy. So he was actually

33
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 2: above our tickets were right below where the sweets were,

34
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 2: so Brooks would be in Bashaddy Sweet, right above us, right.

35
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 2: So I'd always be standing in Rocket and I'd look

36
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 2: up and Brooks would be there talking to me. I

37
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 2: just looking up to see brook Robinson. I was like,

38
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 2: oh my god. Yeah. And then Gary Williams would always

39
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 2: being that suite, Ralph Frigan, all the Maryland guys, you know,

40
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 2: and then I looked up and there's Brooks. So it's chazy.

41
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 2: When I got that, I always wuld to see Brooks

42
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 2: down a difference. You know. Uh, there's shops down in Towson,

43
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 2: So yeah, he was great.

44
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, Uh, Taylor's a Yankee fan. Are you delighted when

45
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 4: the Yankees get knocked out of the playoffs? Do you

46
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 4: love it?

47
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,839
Speaker 2: You know what, Taylor, I don't hate the Yankees. In fact,

48
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 2: when father grew up, was a big Yankees fan, and

49
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 2: he'd actually take a bike right up to watch the

50
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 2: Yankees when the kid and got in a lot of

51
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 2: trouble when he was like fifteen, thinking a little motor

52
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 2: scooter up in the New York to watch the Yankees. Yeah,

53
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 2: the Yankees were part and parcel to what baseball is.

54
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 2: You know, the history of baseball, So the Yankees responsible

55
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 2: for a lot of that. So now you know, so

56
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 2: it's a great rivalry. No, I respect. I like Steyle

57
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 2: was a bit. I love with stein Brenner. I love

58
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 2: those kind of owners that are personalities that actually did thing.

59
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 2: I don't care if they're right. Jerry Jones, he cares

60
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 2: enough to say, hey, I think our defense in front

61
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 2: bury What do you want to laugh at him or not?

62
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 2: He at least has an opinion, So what the hell?

63
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 2: You know, it's sports, So you don't have to take

64
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 2: it that seriously. So I always like Stein Brener. I

65
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 2: thought he was great. You know Billy Martin, you know

66
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 2: Billy was great. So yeah, uh. In fact, I love

67
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,399
Speaker 2: what the Scooter was doing, the games with with Bill

68
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 2: White with Scooters.

69
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I used to watch.

70
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 2: Him every every time I can watch them. We would

71
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 2: watch that Yankee game. So I'm probably watching more Yankees

72
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 2: than I did Orioles back in those days.

73
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 5: I feel like the connection point between Yankee fans and

74
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 5: Orioles fans too. It's Mike Mussina. We kind of both

75
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 5: look at Mike Musina and it's like, this is our guy.

76
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 5: Thank you for him, Thank you for taking care of

77
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 5: Mike Musina after he left us.

78
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, it was a great pitcher. Finally won

79
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 2: twenty games, right, will win with twenty games at one year? Fine? Yeah, yeah,

80
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 2: that's the thing that he needed to win that twenty games.

81
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,119
Speaker 2: Back to say, we had four twenty game winners in Baltimore,

82
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 2: can you name the four twenty game winners?

83
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 1: Well? Can you?

84
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 2: I don't think Jim Po, Dave McNally.

85
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 1: McNally, yep, was it?

86
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 4: Flanagan, Mike Kway are right and Pat Dobson and Pat Dobson.

87
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: Wow, they will never have that.

88
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 2: You'll never get that again. So because you got four starters,

89
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 2: they have four man rotation that you don't enough starts

90
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 2: to ever have. You know, four twenty game winners with

91
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 2: a five and these guys are pitching five six innings.

92
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 2: Now they're getting out of there. So it's crazy. But

93
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 2: now four twenty game winners in Baltimore. Yeah, First of all,

94
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 2: a game I went to the sixty six World Series

95
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 2: against Dodgers. First baseball went to a Memorial Stadium. Yeah,

96
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 2: but no, the Yankees. I love the Yankees.

97
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:20,719
Speaker 1: Can I start a baseball show with you? Can we

98
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 1: do that? I want to start them? Can we do it?

99
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 2: I'm going to ruin my career. Brought me one for

100
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,559
Speaker 2: a podcast after draft. We talked baseball for like ninety

101
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 2: ninety percent of the podcast was about the baseball with Timmy.

102
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 1: So because you love it so much?

103
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. I got books back up there.

104
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,040
Speaker 2: One is Ain't the Beer Cold with Charlie Actan. Charlie

105
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 2: Ackman was the one when he coached the Pistons. The

106
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 2: owner brought him in for a meeting, right and the

107
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 2: owner said that Charlie said, we're gonna make a change

108
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 2: in your department. He said, oh okay, he said, I

109
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 2: sat there for size. I'm the only one in my department.

110
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 2: So I got that. Ain't the beer cold with this?

111
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 2: Remember Chuck Thompson did that, got the book with his

112
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, yeah, So I got some great books. At

113
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 2: two o'clock on Sundays and more said Colts played at

114
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 2: two o'clock on Sunday because the church. They won't have

115
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,719
Speaker 2: left times for the church to let out, so we

116
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 2: didn't start games at one o'clock. Later we started at

117
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 2: two o'clock. That's one of the reasons they wasn't happy.

118
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,039
Speaker 2: I don't think he left because of that. But we

119
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:22,600
Speaker 2: were two. We were only team in the league. I

120
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 2: had two o'clock home game starts when everybody else was

121
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,479
Speaker 2: one o'clock because we were a thirty third Street. It

122
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 2: was the church right there. They had to let the

123
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 2: church the you know, the new mask got out and

124
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 2: they started two o'clock. So we had crazy. So that's

125
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,160
Speaker 2: why I was a book. I think Vince Bagley wrote

126
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 2: at two O'clock's two o'clock one Sunday, but with the

127
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 2: Baltimore Cults so I'll here you.

128
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 4: Go all right at the end of this mel because

129
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 4: I want to get to the to your big board.

130
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 1: I want to get to the NFL stuff.

131
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 4: I will ask you your Mount Rushmore of Baltimore Orioles.

132
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: So you have a few minutes here to think about it.

133
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,479
Speaker 2: Mount Rushmore, Well, I know I can tell you about

134
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 2: the bat who they are going to be. It's going

135
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 2: be obvious.

136
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 1: Yeah. Really there's a definitive Mount Rushmore is.

137
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,280
Speaker 2: That was no question for me. Who my defense of

138
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 2: Mount Rushmore. I got three guarantee, and I'll debate ten others,

139
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,719
Speaker 2: but my three of it are automatic. Automatic are Brooks

140
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 2: and Frank Right, Brooks and Frank and Palmer? Okay, Brooks

141
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 2: and Frank and for me Brooks, Frank Palmer still doing

142
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:15,279

00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:27,479
Speaker 2: in the mix of the ten. But I like to

148
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,960

Speaker 2: Hall and watching Brooks and Frank and Palmer and all

152
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,359
Speaker 2: those and then cal was you know, eighty three World Series.

00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 2: he would be onely hard not to put in. But

157
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 2: there's so many others. I mean, you know, I mean,

158
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 2: I love Paul Blair. I mean to play that shallow

159
00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 2: center field, that dear people that try to the wall

160
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 2: and he goes. Nobody ever hit all over. Nobody always

161
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,359
Speaker 2: say tracking the ball in football, you know, tracking the

162
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 2: deep ball. You gotta track it like Paul Blair, track

163
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 2: like I always bring up my baseball and that comparisons

164
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 2: and analogy is that because Paul Blair, nobody tracked the

165
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 2: ball in center field. Nobody playing a shadow like anybody

166
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 2: ever play a shallower center field than Paul Blair did.

167
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 1: Right, Earl Weaver could be in that conversation, Oh my god.

168
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 2: Pull up the hall was that haller who was the

169
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 2: lumpire when he does. If you pull up a Weaver

170
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 2: and he keeps, he goes back and he goes back

171
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 2: and he goes back, and you gotta pull it up

172
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 2: on YouTube. It's funny. You were over right, never one

173
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 2: a damn guy play you never want. He knew all

174
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 2: his stats that he would aways. Those two were going

175
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 2: at it. Uh Earl Weaver, Yeah definitely, or was smoking

176
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 2: the cigarettes and the dugout trying to.

177
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 1: Yes, Oh yeah.

178
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 2: He and Palmer would always bang heads. All it was.

179
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 2: It was a love hate thing with Palmer and Weaver.

180
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 2: So yeah, he would be hard. It was a big

181
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 2: I love Mark Boalantra because he was a great fielding

182
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 2: short couldn't hit his way out of a paper bag, but great, great,

183
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 2: great fielder, you know, tremendous, probably one of the best

184
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 2: fielding shortstops of all time. So yeah, and I say

185
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 2: it with Paul Blair and then Weaver. Yeah, but uh

186
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 2: yeah four. It would be hard to stop at four,

187
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 2: but I'll do it whenever. Yes night, I'll think about.

188
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: The fourth STU.

189
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 2: We have to put it on the pole.

190
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 5: Did anybody ever play a shower center field than Paul Blair?

191
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 1: No one did. I mean he was standing on second

192
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 1: base essentially.

193
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean he was so shallow and it

194
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 2: was like, holy hell. You know, I saw the first

195
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 2: game ever, one of the first games ever that it

196
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,320
Speaker 2: was my favorite players. It wasn't Ori was Paul Maloder

197
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 2: and Paul Maward. I think one of his first games

198
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 2: was in Baltimore against the Oarls. He played here and

199
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,320
Speaker 2: I saw that game with him, So it was out there,

200
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 2: and we used to have true double You guys don't

201
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:53,920
Speaker 2: really stu. You do true doubleheaders where yeah, you played

202
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:55,199
Speaker 2: a one game and you'd have a little break and

203
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 2: you start the second day night.

204
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 1: Yeah.

205
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, we get the day double headers where you got

206
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:02,679
Speaker 2: to pay for one and pay for the other one.

207
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 2: It used to be two for rice a one right,

208
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,839
Speaker 2: they'll do that anymore. Now it's day night. You got

209
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 2: to pay for the one and pay for the other.

210
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 2: We got a double header where it started at one

211
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 2: and you were there until eight nine at night. It

212
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 2: was what was. I used to get there at eleven

213
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 2: o'clock for batting practice in the morning and stay until

214
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 2: and never leave early, stay late. But I always got

215
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,359
Speaker 2: we always made sure we got there for batting practice,

216
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 2: and so you knew from like eleven am when you

217
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 2: got the memorial stay and you weren't leaving there at

218
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 2: like eight nine at night. And the great thing was

219
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 2: there was a double header, say in September, because of

220
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 2: a rain out, they'd all you can see the lines

221
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 2: of the football field knowing on Sunday the culture gonna

222
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 2: be playing there. We don't have that any work, because

223
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 2: we got always we don't have you know, you know,

224
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,319
Speaker 2: dual purpose stadiums anymore. We got one staying for baseball,

225
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 2: one staying for football. Back in those days, the coachs

226
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 2: and the and the oriols playing that same field. So

227
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,079
Speaker 2: in September, you knew, hey, baseball on Wednesday Tuesday and

228
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,839
Speaker 2: Wednesday football one Sunday. So as a kid, it was

229
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 2: great to have that too. So kids won't have that

230
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 2: in it benefit anymore either.

231
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 4: The great melkiper junior with us here. I am very

232
00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,839
Speaker 4: excited about this. We are presented by Fan Duel and

233
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 4: the Ndel Sportsbook. Mel you get just as excited for

234
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 4: your the release of your first big board as we do,

235
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:07,439
Speaker 4: as the consumer does.

236
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 1: And that's one of the many things I love about you.

237
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: You're excited, you really are.

238
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 2: That's why I say take your shots, man, because it's

239
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 2: all subjective. Now, this is why scouting is so difficult.

240
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 2: It's it's all subjective. And then you have theories and

241
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 2: you have philosophies and different ways of evaluating, and that

242
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 2: they have to have a certain amount of starts if

243
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 2: they're a quarterback, right, they have to run a certain

244
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 2: forty time if they play this position, whatever certain size,

245
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,559
Speaker 2: arm length, I'm big one. And then you got to

246
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,479
Speaker 2: try to put it all together and not draft outliers

247
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,559
Speaker 2: and try to stay disciplined in your approach and not say, well,

248
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 2: I love this guy so much even though it's arm length,

249
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 2: I'm still gonna take them. So that's why I think

250
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 2: it's fascinating to see how these organizations deal with the draft.

251
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 2: I'm sitting here for all these years with one with

252
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 2: forty eight years now as just an outsider, trying to

253
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,959
Speaker 2: you know, critique teams, but to be in that room

254
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 2: and have to actually, yeah, we all say, well we

255
00:10:58,320 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 2: like that guy, we didn't like that guy. But when

256
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 2: you had to pick one in the first round, you can't.

257
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,360
Speaker 2: You can't pick five. You got to pick one, okay,

258
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,679
Speaker 2: and are you gonna make the right pick? And you

259
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,680
Speaker 2: get to it. So again, you don't end up with

260
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 2: twenty picks in the draft. You know you have teams

261
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,000
Speaker 2: are lucky always. I'd like to have ten to eleven,

262
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 2: twelve if it's a seven round draft, you get the

263
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 2: compensed stories thrown in. I would never want to have

264
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 2: less than seven. But at the end of the day,

265
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 2: there's no marching for air there. So guys can be

266
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 2: really good evaluators and look terrible when you look back

267
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 2: on them because the pick that they made. They might

268
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 2: have liked certain guys they were debating, but they picked

269
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 2: the wrong one.

270
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 3: Well, I'm looking at your I'm looking at your big board,

271
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 3: and I see all the things that you're looking at

272
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 3: with all these guys, and I'm curious for you, what

273
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 3: is your non negotiable, Like, what is the thing that

274
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 3: when you're when a guy doesn't have this or can't

275
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 3: do this or this is no good, You're like, I

276
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 3: can't put him in the top five.

277
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: I can't put him in the top twenty.

278
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, great question. I think for me personally, it's and

279
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,199
Speaker 2: I'll get to this in a second because people yell

280
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 2: at me on your add all.

281
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 1: The time about you take your time about kiper Junior.

282
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,079
Speaker 2: The first thing is I want to see passion and

283
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,840
Speaker 2: fire when I'm watching a player. I want to see hustle.

284
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:04,960
Speaker 2: I want to see a guy never quoti on a play.

285
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 2: I want to see a guy who plays the word

286
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 2: I use is fierce? Who plays fierce? And who is

287
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 2: the guy that I say, no matter where they're going

288
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 2: to go in the draft, who is the guy I say,

289
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 2: I want that guy on my team. There is a

290
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 2: certain player this year on the top twenty five big

291
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,200
Speaker 2: board that is a guy that I identify. He's not number one,

292
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 2: it's not number two or three, but he's on that

293
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:27,239
Speaker 2: big board that is fierce, plays fierce. I'm around Saint Brown.

294
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:31,079
Speaker 2: You know, you think about all the guys heinz Ward. Okay,

295
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 2: I'm gonna rous Saint Brown was a fourth round pick.

296
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 2: Hines Ward was like a third round pick quarterback of Georgia.

297
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 2: But they played fierce, okay. And that's what I look

298
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 2: at with one player in that first round that I

299
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 2: have probably higher than most. Actually I saw Jordan Reed's mock.

300
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 2: He has him down in the twenties. I believe I

301
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 2: have him right now in the top ten. So, uh,

302
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:51,439
Speaker 2: there's a guy in then, and I'll give him. I'll

303
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 2: tell you who it is, and he guesses and he

304
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 2: guesses good.

305
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 1: Does he play wide receiver?

306
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 2: Yes he does.

307
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,199
Speaker 3: Does he play wide receiver at USC.

308
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 2: Yes he does. Like he yes, and I said, I

309
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 2: said yesterday during our podcast first Draft, but he's not

310
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 2: all He's not a Lemon, but his name's kay Lemon.

311
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 1: He'smon.

312
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:13,080
Speaker 2: He is a great player. He's yeah, he is a

313
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 2: great play. I'll say, if you saw the catch against

314
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 2: Michigan Saturday night, unbelievable gravity does it all the time.

315
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 2: So McKay Lemon, I would say, is one of my favorite.

316
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:22,839
Speaker 2: You can have your favorite players in the draft and

317
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 2: they are not here first rounders necessarily. So again, those

318
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 2: are so many guys I identify, and this year is

319
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 2: going to be tricky because at quarterback there's one kid

320
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 2: who you could argue right now is playing at the

321
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 2: highest level since the debacle at Florida, saying that's Ty

322
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:42,079
Speaker 2: Simpson at Alabama. Ty Simpson is great. Never started a

323
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:45,079
Speaker 2: game till this year, right, no starts sixteen games he

324
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 2: played him at, No starts. How many are you gonna

325
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 2: have at the end of this year twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen,

326
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 2: See how far Alabama goes and whatever it gets heard

327
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 2: or he stays healthy, ty Simpson is gonna have a

328
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 2: tough decision to make. I think you've got to go back.

329
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,200
Speaker 2: I don't think you're ready. I got a list here, guys.

330
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 2: It starts by NFL quarterback. Okay, and here's some names.

331
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 2: Mitchell Trubisky thirteen, Anthony Richardson thirteen.

332
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 4: These are the start they made in college, the amount

333
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 4: of starts they made in college arts in college.

334
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 2: Trey Lance seventeen, Kyler Murray seventeen, Mac Jones seventeen. Now

335
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 2: I'll go to the top. Bo Nick sixty one, Jane

336
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 2: Daniels fifty five, Philip Rivers fifty one, Brock Perty forty six,

337
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield forty six, Peyton Manning forty five. When Ryan

338
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 2: Leif was twenty four that same year, I remember Leaf

339
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 2: went one, yees Leaf twenty four, starts Manning forty five,

340
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 2: Michael Pennix June, you're forty five, okay, Justin Herbert forty two,

341
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts forty two, Jackson Dart forty one. Why is

342
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 2: that important? And Bill Parcells is the one started this

343
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 2: whole thing. Roland okay and said you need to have

344
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 2: two three years as a starter, Okay. The maturity, the progression,

345
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 2: the experience. If I'm asking you to come into the

346
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 2: NFL and play at a high level, every week a

347
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 2: consistently high level. You better be able to do it

348
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 2: in college so when you get to the NFL, you're confident.

349
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 2: You could see arch Manning now gaining confidence at Texas.

350
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 2: He's not ready for the NFL, but people were talking

351
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 2: about him maybe going in Why for one year as

352
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 2: a starter. It's not enough. And I think when you

353
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 2: and you look at Bill Parcells, ironically, this is the

354
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,119
Speaker 2: irony of this. He started this. It's a bad experience

355
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:14,600
Speaker 2: and this is why it's not a perfect science and

356
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 2: not an exact science. It's not a perfect world. With

357
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 2: the draft, he drafted Jake Long Okay and waited till

358
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 2: the second round, number one overall. Jake Long, offensive tackle

359
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 2: out in Michigan, and the second round drafted Chad Henny,

360
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 2: quarterback out of Michigan. Chad Henny had forty five starts

361
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 2: at Michigan. Matt Ryan was in that draft. Now, Matt

362
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 2: Ryan had about thirty, but he took Chad Henny. Matt

363
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 2: Ryan went in that draft. He could have had Matt

364
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 2: Ryan instead of Jake Long, but he said, I'll get

365
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 2: the left tackle, the book end like Jumbo Elliott was

366
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 2: right for him, and I'll wait for the second round

367
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 2: and get my quarterback who's got forty five starts, have

368
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 2: it work out with Chad Henny but a really good

369
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 2: backup in the NFL, but as a starter. Uh ah.

370
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 2: So for Bill Parcells, who I think had a great

371
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 2: philosophy on that, it didn't work with ch Had Henny

372
00:15:57,880 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 2: in the second round with those forty five starts. So

373
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 2: you know, I do think it's important though, and I

374
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 2: do think it proves that the minimal starts that you

375
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 2: have show that you're just not ready. You're not ready.

376
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 2: And so I think that's why I say Ty Simpson

377
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 2: with only what fourteen hopefully fourteen fifteen starts at the

378
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 2: end of the year of the partent, pending on how

379
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 2: far Alabama goes, will have to make that tough call.

380
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 2: And I know the money is hard to pass up,

381
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 2: but you're getting paid in college now, right, So then

382
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 2: you're gonna it's gonna benefit you in terms of the

383
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 2: longevity of your career and the succession will have in

384
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 2: the NFL. So use that I one's called a minor

385
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 2: leg year, but use that year against a lot of aogs,

386
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 2: and you guys know what aogs are. Use it against

387
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 2: a lot of aogs in college, because when you're go

388
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 2: playing in the NFL, you're playing against the best in

389
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 2: the world, and you better be prepared and equipped and

390
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 2: mature and experienced enough to go up against those guys

391
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:46,560
Speaker 2: and you're one in year two and be ready to

392
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 2: play at a high level where everybody in the media

393
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 2: and around the country is gonna be ripping you is

394
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 2: a bus. You're not getting the year four, five, or six.

395
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 2: You're gonna be evaluated the first second year quarter. They're saying, now, well,

396
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 2: shoot Door Sanders and Dylan Gabriel, I haven't necessarily shown

397
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 2: enough shown what they're just should where I ain't played yet, Okay,

398
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 2: Dylln Gabriel's just kind of figure it out. And he's

399
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 2: holding his own with a bad offensive line and guy's

400
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,879
Speaker 2: dropping balls all over the place. So again, this is

401
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 2: what you have to deal with. And that's why I

402
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 2: say I should have Fernando Mendoza and Jordan has him

403
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:16,920
Speaker 2: going number one. I have him like third on the board.

404
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 2: Fernando Mendoza had one thing, guys, I love. He said,

405
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 2: I don't touch social media. Oh what that guy should

406
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 2: be my all time number one. Fernando Mendoza doesn't even

407
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 2: touch social media. Great, that'll take you a long way, Fernando,

408
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 2: and hopefully everybody follows suit. So again, I have him three.

409
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 2: I probably should have won. But Dante Moore from Oregon,

410
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 2: despite the subpar performance against Indiana, I still have him

411
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 2: at number one because I can't get that Penn Stake

412
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,640
Speaker 2: game out of my head where he was. Yeah, unbelievable.

413
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,200
Speaker 1: Listen, he's in mid season for him. This is Pete

414
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,880
Speaker 1: mel kiper junior. Mike, how long ago did you ask

415
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:53,880
Speaker 1: him what does he look for?

416
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,399
Speaker 3: I mean about five six minutes. And that's why I

417
00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 3: loved mel It was the easiest thing in the world

418
00:17:59,320 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 3: to produce.

419
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:04,239
Speaker 2: I remember the damn question when I'm looking either, how

420
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,359
Speaker 2: you start talking? I don't remember what the damn question was.

421
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,439
Speaker 1: Somehow took us to Mendoza, and I love you for it.

422
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 6: So so, Matt, let me ask you that you have

423
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:17,920
Speaker 6: more higher on your big board, but more has substantially

424
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 6: lower starts in college than Mendoza. So does that mean

425
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,959
Speaker 6: even though you have more ranked higher, if you were

426
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:28,680
Speaker 6: picking number one like a certain team, might you would

427
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:29,679
Speaker 6: take Mendoza.

428
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is the tough part, Mike. He is trying

429
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 2: to balance that all out. Yeah, I love Dante Moore.

430
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 2: I was hoping he goes back to Oregon. Like I said,

431
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 2: I got the starts here. Guess what who was the

432
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,880
Speaker 2: quarterback this past year that he backed up? Dylan Gabriel

433
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 2: gave sixty three starts. Who was the quarterback the year

434
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 2: prior to Gabriel was Bo Nicks. Bonnicks sixty one starts Auburn.

435
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,440
Speaker 2: Then Oregon has it Bonnicks? Has it benefited him? I

436
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 2: would think it has. Dylan Gabriel's holding his own right.

437
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 2: Does it benefit him? I think it has. So again,

438
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 2: I will rattle off those nomes the guys with all

439
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 2: those starts. Certainly it's benefited Jackson Dart to have all

440
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 2: those starts, right, So again I look at it and say,

441
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,600
Speaker 2: and ironically, when Mitchell Trubisky went second overall with those

442
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:13,680
Speaker 2: thirteen starts, Patrick Mahones went behind him, he had twenty

443
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,879
Speaker 2: nine starts, right to Shaun Watson, I've got their thirty

444
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,920
Speaker 2: five starts, went behind the guy with only thirteen. How'd

445
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:21,880
Speaker 2: that work out? So I'm not saying it's full proof.

446
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 2: It's no systems perfect. You can have a gambler, a

447
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:26,959
Speaker 2: handicapper come once I got a system. It's not going

448
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 2: to be eighty ninety hundred percent. You're gonna have some

449
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,919
Speaker 2: the're wrong, but you got to stick and be disciplined

450
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 2: in that approach. To your point, Mikey Dante Moore, I wouldn't.

451
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 2: I would advise him to go back, right, great player,

452
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 2: go back, get another full year. This is only the

453
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 2: only one full year he will have is this year

454
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 2: when he was at UCLA after being ranked the number

455
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,440
Speaker 2: one guy coming out of high school. He had four

456
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 2: games that year where he was low I think fifty percent.

457
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 2: Three games he was like, he's like forty two, forty

458
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,199
Speaker 2: three percent against Oregon State and like Washington State. He

459
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 2: struggled there. So this is his first full year and

460
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 2: let's see how he plays the of the season. And

461
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:02,959
Speaker 2: the one thing too, guys, last time I checked, this

462
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:07,879
Speaker 2: came out October fourteenth. Okay, October fourteenth. Baseball season is

463
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 2: not over yet, may not until November first, right, whatever

464
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,120
Speaker 2: it is when the seventh game of the World Series

465
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:13,400
Speaker 2: hopefully takes place.

466
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,920
Speaker 3: And when the Yankees went out though melt well, yeah.

467
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:19,680
Speaker 2: I'm not do with a lot of injuries and whatever,

468
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 2: But the bottom line is I'm not writing anything in

469
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,560
Speaker 2: pen and I think we get locked in the Kuiper

470
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,680
Speaker 2: said this that I'm saying a lot of things. No

471
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 2: I'm not. I'm not putting exclamation points and I'm not

472
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 2: writing anything in pen now. So don't hold me to

473
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,719
Speaker 2: anything about these ratings and about these these feelings. When

474
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 2: players they can change. Okay, you evaluate this as a

475
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 2: stock up stock down type of thing. But I do

476
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,640
Speaker 2: think Dante Moore when I saw that Penn State game,

477
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 2: and you just think about that. Guys, this is off

478
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 2: subject too, because I'm going to the Penn State looked

479
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:50,159
Speaker 2: like they had that game in overtime, all right, they

480
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 2: had it. Dante Moore was Superman that night and Happy

481
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 2: Valley at the white out, and he's not Superman. And

482
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 2: Penn State wins that game. What happens to Penn State?

483
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,879
Speaker 2: Where are they then against your cla? Where are they

484
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:03,920
Speaker 2: against the word? Where's James Franklin? Now I probably still

485
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 2: coaching Penn State, So that one game cost them a season,

486
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:11,359
Speaker 2: cost James Franklin his job there and that and Dante

487
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,400
Speaker 2: wore was dn TAEI wore that night? I say was superman.

488
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 2: He was all inspiring, and I can't I can't dispise.

489
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 2: I can't say because he didn't play as well against Indiana.

490
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 2: Team didn't play as well. They looked like they were

491
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 2: I would say, maybe over confident. They didn't bring the

492
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 2: fire the passion that Indiana did. Indiana brought that. You

493
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 2: saw Signetty go crazy after that non call, right, yeah,

494
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 2: and they had to pick six against Fernando for a

495
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:36,120
Speaker 2: touch yoah six? Right.

496
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 1: The earl weaver of college football Signetti is he.

497
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 2: Went crazy, he wanted and I love that. Yeah, And

498
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 2: that's what Signetti brings, that passion, that confidence of those

499
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,040
Speaker 2: players Aiden Fisher and you see it with the Angelo Ponds,

500
00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:50,200
Speaker 2: and you see it with Carter Smith at left tackle,

501
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,440
Speaker 2: and Sarah and and Cooper the wide receiver, and got

502
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 2: Roman Henby to transfer from Maryland at running back. This

503
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,920
Speaker 2: team has a lot of great warriors, Okay. And he

504
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:00,879
Speaker 2: got a lot of guys that he brought from JMU,

505
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 2: by the way, Yeah, there's still key guys. That was

506
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,800
Speaker 2: the benefit that Kurtz Signett he had going from JMU

507
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:08,920
Speaker 2: to Indiana last year. He had a ton of guys,

508
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 2: some left right they moved on to the NFL or

509
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,199
Speaker 2: another I call him aog's you know what they are

510
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:16,720
Speaker 2: another occupation guys, right, they're doing something else, they're playing football.

511
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 2: But he still got some mcamara coming off the edge. JM.

512
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,919
Speaker 2: You got so those guys are still helping Signette do

513
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 2: what he's doing. So he had a big advantage with that.

514
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,680
Speaker 2: Those guys came with him, they knew what he wanted

515
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 2: offensively and defensively, and they kind of helped them bring

516
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:32,640
Speaker 2: the rest of that team on board. And that locker

517
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 2: room went on that practice field. So to me, you know,

518
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:39,119
Speaker 2: Indiana brought it against Oregon. Oregon didn't match that intensity

519
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 2: and it showed.

520
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,680
Speaker 4: I'm glad you mentioned how much this could change moving

521
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:46,119
Speaker 4: forward here, But I'm wondering when you left last year's

522
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 4: college football season did you have did you think Dante

523
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 4: Moore was going to be number one on a big

524
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 4: board or did that just happen over time over the

525
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 4: course of seeing him.

526
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,679
Speaker 2: You know what, you wanted to see him because he

527
00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 2: was rated so highly coming out of high school, right,

528
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 2: and then you saw him at UCLA and say, okay

529
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,280
Speaker 2: with ship Kelly, that wasn't working. And then he sat

530
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,320
Speaker 2: behind Dylan Gabriel. But we didn't see and there's no

531
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 2: evidence then that he was going to be great. Then

532
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 2: you watched him this year and say, boy, he's doing

533
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 2: the arm angles. He's accurate us, he's got this, I

534
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 2: would say, unflappable, feel about him like nothing's bothering him.

535
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,639
Speaker 2: And as I said, it's hard. That's why the subjective

536
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 2: evaluation is so tough. When I watched him at that

537
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:28,199
Speaker 2: against Penn Sad, I'm thinking, wow, he looks like and

538
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,920
Speaker 2: think about this too. Forget the starts too. Another fact,

539
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:32,840
Speaker 2: he's twenty years of age. He won't be twenty one

540
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,640
Speaker 2: until after the draft. He'll be twenty years of age.

541
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,680
Speaker 2: That's why I say the noors sellers at South Carolina

542
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 2: struggling right the offensive line is that very good. Go

543
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,399
Speaker 2: back into play another year. Don't come out after a

544
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 2: struggling year when you didn't figure it out and have

545
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 2: that swagger in college and that's super confidence that your

546
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 2: week the week playing great football. Go find that in

547
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 2: college and then come out after that type of year

548
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,159
Speaker 2: into the NFL where you're playing against the best in

549
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 2: the world. To expect these guys who are struggling a

550
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 2: little bit in college, all of a sudden flip that

551
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 2: switch and the NFL is not gonna happen, so to me,

552
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 2: unless you want to let them sit for three or

553
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 2: four years, and that's not gonna happen. It happens in

554
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 2: Green Bay. That's the only one that happens with Green Bay.

555
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:16,359
Speaker 2: Aaron Jordan lovesat. But guess what guys Patrick mahomesat for

556
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,959
Speaker 2: one year right in Kansas City behind Alex Smith. Normally

557
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 2: that doesn't happen. So for these guys, be ready, be

558
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,439
Speaker 2: equipped to play at that level as a rookie or

559
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 2: second year because by year three you're kicked at the curb.

560
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,640
Speaker 2: You're kicking because guess what happens. It's not that the quarterbacks.

561
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 2: You imagine I say that the internet for Mendoza. You

562
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 2: imagine reading the stuff that people say you I mentioned

563
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 2: turn on the TV and listening to comments. You listen

564
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 2: to all it used to be. Did you read the

565
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 2: paper that there was no papers, right, you gotta go

566
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 2: to the papers to read. Don't read the paper, don't

567
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:49,480
Speaker 2: listen to the radio.

568
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:51,639
Speaker 1: But now has no idea what you're talking about?

569
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you got everything else. So if you stay

570
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,479
Speaker 2: can you can you stay away from that like Fernando Can.

571
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,119
Speaker 2: A lot of players can't so they're beat up so

572
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,160
Speaker 2: much mentally and physically, like say behind a bad offensive

573
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 2: line or whatever it is that you know, you got

574
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 2: to take as many years as you have in college

575
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 2: to play football. Take them unless you're you know, at

576
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 2: that number you need to be and you feel like

577
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 2: you are coming out after a hell of a year

578
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 2: where you're ready, you're ready physically and mentally for what

579
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,880
Speaker 2: you're going to be the demands and the expectations right

580
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:22,679
Speaker 2: away in the NFL.

581
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:34,719
Speaker 4: Well, if now he's not going to do it, But

582
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,639
Speaker 4: if arch Manning decided to come out after this season,

583
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 4: would he be the number one pick in the draft?

584
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 2: No? No, no, no, I yeah he would be. Now,

585
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,880
Speaker 2: so this is again you're asking me on October fourteenth. Yeah,

586
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,119
Speaker 2: you know, if he he made progress against Oklahoma and Mattier,

587
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 2: John Mattier, give the kid credit.

588
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:52,640
Speaker 1: He is great.

589
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 2: He went out there. He wanted to play in a

590
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 2: Red River rivalry because that's probably his only shot if

591
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,400
Speaker 2: he goes into the NFL after this year. He shouldn't play.

592
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 2: I don't think you should to play coming off that

593
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,600
Speaker 2: hand that quick, you know, I know he probably forced

594
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:05,159
Speaker 2: his wa He w into the field and you saw

595
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 2: that he just didn't have it, you know. And that's

596
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:09,919
Speaker 2: and that allowed arch in Texas and that defense, and

597
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,359
Speaker 2: I think felt like, hey, we're underappreciated. It's all about

598
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 2: vendables and that defense. We're pretty good here too. We're

599
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 2: gonna show you. And they showed a quarterback that was

600
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:19,679
Speaker 2: not even close to one hundred percent with that hand injury.

601
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 2: So then have coming off that surgery from what sixteen

602
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:26,120
Speaker 2: seventeen days prior. So for me, arch made progress. This

603
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 2: year is about starting to develop and get to the

604
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 2: point where you are silencing the critics and where are

605
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,639
Speaker 2: saying you're terrible. Okay, because you hear you heard it.

606
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 2: If his name is not Manning, we're not even does it. Yep.

607
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 2: It's all about the Manning and that's why he was

608
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 2: hyped and that's he's used to. I heard somebody he's awful.

609
00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,080
Speaker 2: This is what she got to deal with, guys, this

610
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 2: is what you got to deal with as a young

611
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 2: twenty twenty one year old kid. And you know, Archie

612
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:51,720
Speaker 2: said it best back in August. Would you guys stop

613
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 2: with the first round mox with arch Remember Archie said

614
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 2: that grandpa, who you have to respect round my grandfather

615
00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:01,920
Speaker 2: respects grandfathers, their wisdom, right, Yes, please keep Arch out

616
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 2: of the my first rounds. He's not going to be

617
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 2: in the draft. And that that was before he played

618
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 2: Ohio State guys, and I saw what happened there. So

619
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 2: if Arch Manning, I would say ninety nine point nine

620
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 2: nine nine nine nine, because I'm never going to say

621
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 2: a hundred percent is going to be back at Texas

622
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 2: next year. He has to be back at Texas next year.

623
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 2: He would be crazy to leave for the NFL. He's

624
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 2: got to figure out college first, and this one year

625
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,119
Speaker 2: figuring it out. I gave you the starts. You know,

626
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,439
Speaker 2: he had two starts going to this year. He's not

627
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 2: going to be to that number or anywhere close to it,

628
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,720
Speaker 2: and he's still trying to figure out he's that is.

629
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,400
Speaker 2: That was that all inspiring?

630
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:39,199
Speaker 1: No, it was.

631
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 2: It was progression, but it wasn't a wow. He's ready

632
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,320
Speaker 2: for the NFL performance, So you know, if he can

633
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 2: string them together and get ready for next year and

634
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 2: to have that great year to answer your question, so

635
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,879
Speaker 2: he could be the number one picking the twenty twenty

636
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 2: seven draft when we're in Washington, DC, the twenty twenty

637
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 2: seven draft. If he keeps progressing. That should be arch

638
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 2: Manning's year twenty twenty six NOL.

639
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:05,359
Speaker 5: How impressive have has it been watching this Miami team

640
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 5: with Bain and Mesador bookending each other on that defensive line.

641
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, Jason Taylor coaching them. I about Jason Taylor coaching them.

642
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,159
Speaker 2: Hall of famer Jason a third round pick out of

643
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 2: Akron by the way. Yeah, you know again, you're talking

644
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 2: about Mesador, who is a guy who kind of say,

645
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,359
Speaker 2: plays in the shadow, but is equally He's good. I

646
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 2: always had him on the twenty twenty Top twenty five board.

647
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 2: Love the kid, Love what he's doing. Baine. The one

648
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 2: thing that's underrated about Bank because people are gonna say

649
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,119
Speaker 2: he doesn't have the longest arms, and he doesn't. He

650
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,919
Speaker 2: has short arms. He's not gonna run the greatest forty.

651
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 2: He takes one thing he does. He takes incredible angles

652
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 2: to the quarterback when he Yeah, you can make up

653
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 2: for a lack of this stuff. You do have great instincts,

654
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 2: great technique, great fundamentals. Okay, linebackers that see it quicker

655
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,240
Speaker 2: to have to have the great forty. Okay, you can

656
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 2: have a great forty if you if you're slower reacting.

657
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 2: You're gonna play like a four to nine guy when

658
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 2: you're a four to six guy and vice versa. So

659
00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 2: for Bain, yeah, he doesn't have the great arm length.

660
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 2: Everybody love Miles Garrett thirty five arms, right, but guess

661
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 2: what Hendrickson's got only thirty two arms. I checked Michael

662
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 2: Parsons thirty one and a half. Okay, so it's arm

663
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:11,800
Speaker 2: length for them. The end all be all. You'd love

664
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 2: to have it, but you don't have to have it.

665
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 2: And for Bame, we'll have to see what he runs.

666
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 2: That's gonna be important because some of these defensive ends

667
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 2: have to run a certain time where the way they

668
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 2: utilize them within their schemes. Get all that. But yeah,

669
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 2: he's in the top ten because he is one hell

670
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 2: of a football player and he brings it. I mean

671
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 2: he talk about tackles, chasing plays, hustling, playing fierce, Yet

672
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 2: he does it. Messador does it as well. That kid

673
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 2: ton Malakai Tony, a true freshman receiver, does it as well.

674
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 2: Carson Beck's getting a clean pocket now to throw from

675
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 2: to hit Tony down the field. Right, Fletcher's give him

676
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 2: the balance, but that old Lions give him that fortress,

677
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 2: and Carson Beck needs to be a guy that people

678
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 2: are gonna start discussing more and more. It's a potential

679
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 2: first round pick. Remember, guys, that's twenty five, it's not

680
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:55,920
Speaker 2: thirty two. Okay, so it's not the entire first round.

681
00:29:56,160 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 2: Twenty five guys, thirty two going the first Carson Beck tier.

682
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 2: If he can get back to the way he was

683
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 2: prior to the injury, I think certainly are guys. And

684
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 2: you also have to think about Derreck Nussmeyer. Garrett Nussmeyer

685
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 2: is just inconsistent. You see flashes, but then you see

686
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 2: some head scratchers. So if he can gain a measure

687
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 2: of consistency moving forward through the rest of the year.

688
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 2: But at the halfway mark, less than that, if guys

689
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 2: go onto the playoffs and even in championship games and

690
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 2: forget the bowl game. So we're at the halfway mark,

691
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 2: a lot of football still to be played.

692
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 4: Mel who's the guy who has hurt their draft status

693
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 4: the most?

694
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 2: Oh, it's a great question. I would say, right now,

695
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 2: what we expected. I'll go to write the Leonora Sellers

696
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 2: quarterback in South Carolina. You thought he could be right

697
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 2: up there with Dante Moore and with Fernando Mendoza and

698
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 2: being I don't know where Jordan. I didn't see the

699
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 2: whole Jordan Reid Mack. I'd be curious if you can

700
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 2: pull it up, pull up Jordan Reid's mock and see

701
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,440
Speaker 2: where Jordan had him going. I thought he'd be up

702
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 2: there at one or two. He looked like Josh Allen

703
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 2: type physical build. He looked like the Cam Newton type

704
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 2: bill That's who the comps would be. But the inconsistencies

705
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 2: with accuracy, the mistakes, the offensive line's not helping them,

706
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 2: He's not getting the ball to Nick Harbor enough. There's

707
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 2: a lot of things going on there that I think

708
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 2: tell you that Leonora's sellers. I think needs to go back,

709
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 2: you know, for another year to South Carolina. Now I

710
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 2: still have him right now with twenty one on the

711
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 2: big board, so he's still you know, on talent is

712
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 2: going to be tough to pass up at some point there.

713
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 2: But I think he needs to go back for another

714
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,959
Speaker 2: year and it would certainly benefit him tremendously as far

715
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:31,360
Speaker 2: as other guys that the other posient, Cayden Proctor, would

716
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 2: have been based on the Florida State game where he

717
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 2: had all kinds of issues and pass protection okay, but

718
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 2: he is rebounded like Ty Simpson, Cayden Proctor has rebounded

719
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:43,920
Speaker 2: to the point where he's in that top twenty five.

720
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 2: So he's not as high as maybe you know he

721
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,200
Speaker 2: would have been went back in August. He's not as

722
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 2: low as some people are talking him as our fourth

723
00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 2: rounder after the Florida State game, like this guy can't

724
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 2: play as an offensive tack win in the NFL. He

725
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 2: has rebounded to get back into that top twenty five.

726
00:31:58,040 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 2: So sometimes I say, if you'd asked me after that's

727
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,760
Speaker 2: are to State games too, were Mikey, who's got Kayton

728
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 2: Proctor has dropped way down? Well, here he is after

729
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 2: we played with five more games. He's recovered. So let's

730
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 2: see how these guys go the rest of the way

731
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:12,880
Speaker 2: in terms of their great and not to give knee

732
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 2: jerk reactions as I say, to one game. And that's

733
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:17,320
Speaker 2: why I didn't want to do that for Dante Moore

734
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 2: based on the Indiana game. Guess what, Fernando Mendozo threw

735
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 2: a pick six in that game. He wasn't all inspiring either,

736
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 2: So none of this was the week I waited for.

737
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 2: This week purpose it was intentional to wait for this

738
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:30,479
Speaker 2: particular week because all these quarterbacks were having all these

739
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 2: great evaluation games. Outside of Ty Simpson, I'm doing anything special.

740
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 2: So it was like, why did I wait? I didn't

741
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:36,960
Speaker 2: need to wait, you know.

742
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 1: Yeah.

743
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, And we all realize this is in pencil. It's

744
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 4: not in pen all right, So everyone leaving the fuck alone?

745
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 1: All right?

746
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 4: You understand that when you were changing change to week

747
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 4: because college football is crazy.

748
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 2: Now, hey, I love seeing some of the Kim and

749
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 2: I West. We'll sit here and and a good friend

750
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 2: of mine sense I don't that's it. I just laugh

751
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 2: at these guys are really creative with some of the

752
00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 2: things they say. They really are they they really are creative.

753
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 2: I give them a lot of credit. I mean, I

754
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 2: don't know who these people are. I don't know who

755
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:06,840
Speaker 2: would respond and say things like that. You know, you

756
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,480

758
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 2: about sending stuff, both comments, all these comments, after all

759
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:17,120
Speaker 2: these different things that people. I don't get it, but hey,

Speaker 1: They have I love that.

763

Speaker 2: I love that because guess what, A lot of them

Speaker 2: will call me and they'll be arguing with me. And

765
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 2: I love arguing. I love I'm gonna say arguments. I

00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 2: at the end of the day we'll find out who's

770
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 2: right as far as prospects three four years down the road,

771
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,880
Speaker 2: as far as predictions, maybe next week. So again, I

772
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:49,959
Speaker 2: think fans are great. I know. I love I love that. Now.

773
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 2: I did say to everybody, don't send me anything after

774
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 2: they used to send me all these articles after the draft.

775
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 2: There were some real good ones. There are some incredibly

776
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 2: harsh ones, right, I said, why, I don't want to

777
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:03,360
Speaker 2: read the good and I don't want to read the

778
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 2: band said, don't send me anything. I don't want any

779
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:07,360
Speaker 2: of that. I don't want any of it. So I

780
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 2: don't get any of that. But I do hear through

781
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:11,600
Speaker 2: the great fight a lot of the comments, and I

782
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 2: do get the calls because a lot of them will

783
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 2: call me because were subscribers of mine for thirty some years,

784
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 2: they will still call me and say, oh, what the

785
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 2: heck are you thinking? Why did you have him here?

786
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,239
Speaker 2: Why did you do that? Why did you say this?

787
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,759
Speaker 2: And I love to have those. Some of those conversations

788
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:29,160
Speaker 2: guys start being like fifteen minute conversation and guess what,

789
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:30,320
Speaker 2: they end up being three hours.

790
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 4: So there you go, right, yes, yes, and you dominate

791
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 4: all of them. Don't get tailor any ideas.

792
00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 5: By the way, Okay, no, when you're doing your big

793
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:41,279
Speaker 5: board and you're factoring Caden Proctor and how are you

794
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 5: kind of taking into account how Alabama uses him, Like

795
00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 5: they're putting in wildcat packages for him, they're splitting him

796
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:50,800
Speaker 5: out wide at receiver, Like is that going into the

797
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 5: big board at all?

798
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 2: Yeah? That was an interesting play. When you saw that

799
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:57,920
Speaker 2: seventy four rolling, rumbling and bumbling, and people just reminded me,

800
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 2: what's that movie? What's the movie? Where the the was?

801
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,440
Speaker 2: The movie was, Oh gosh, it was a movie with

802
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:05,719
Speaker 2: a football movie. I can't remember.

803
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:06,400
Speaker 1: Rumbling, bumbling.

804
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,120
Speaker 4: I'm trying to job that big guy was a trick

805
00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 4: play at the end of the game, and.

806
00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:12,120
Speaker 1: He remember the Titans, Yes.

807
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:17,560
Speaker 4: Replacements, No, remember the Titans play at the end of

808
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:17,759
Speaker 4: the game.

809
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:19,399
Speaker 1: It would work in real life. I mean.

810
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:30,800
Speaker 2: No varsity blues, Varsity blues, Mary Bloom, Yeah, yeah, varsity blues. Yeah.

811
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 2: When a backup quarterback was in and whatever, and they

812
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 2: had the trick play at the end to win the game,

813
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:38,320
Speaker 2: and he's got the he's rocky coming boom boom, boom boom.

814
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna tell you what that's what Katon Procter

815
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:42,840
Speaker 2: was doing. It was that was pretty amazing. But to

816
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:45,239
Speaker 2: see him come back, and to see Florida State Ty

817
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,799
Speaker 2: Simpson come back, I mean in Alabama, come back from

818
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 2: that Florida. I call it the Florida State the backle

819
00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 2: to see them rebound the way they have in Killing

820
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 2: the Boar. I'm listening to the Fine bomb after after

821
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,880
Speaker 2: that week and legends calling in to find I'm listening

822

825
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:09,600
Speaker 2: everybody's got to go after that one game, and now

826
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 2: they all love Kaylen de boor love the ador. Hey.

827
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 2: And he called it, and I give legend credit called

828
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 2: he said, hey, I'm a fan, I'm right to change

829
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:18,040
Speaker 2: my mind.

830
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 1: Right, Yes, yes, yes, they live Tennessee this weekend.

831
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,880
Speaker 2: He'll fire him again, Yeah, exactly. But we all should

832
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:27,360
Speaker 2: have the right to change her mind. I think we

833
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:29,399
Speaker 2: all get in. We can't change your mind because it's

834
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,640
Speaker 2: a sign of weakness. It's a sign of strength.

835
00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:31,960
Speaker 1: Guys.

836
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:34,279
Speaker 2: Yes, Mel, I can't let you.

837
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:36,399
Speaker 3: I can't let you come on here without asking about

838
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:39,759
Speaker 3: your beloved Ravens. They are they are, they are floundering, Mel.

839
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,239
Speaker 3: What's wrong with the Ravens injuries?

840
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:42,520
Speaker 1: Guys?

841
00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:44,840
Speaker 2: We had the Ools with injuries with the pitching staff

842
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:47,279
Speaker 2: and other players and the Ravens, and it's been kind

843
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 2: of a perfect storm against the Ravens. Guys, you have

844
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 2: all these injuries on both sides of the ball. Now

845
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:55,359
Speaker 2: Lamar hurt, and you have this schedule which has been unforgiving.

846
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 2: You know, you look at this gauntlet they had to

847
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,399
Speaker 2: go through. They had Cleveland, they got to win. That's

848
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,480
Speaker 2: their only win. But every team has been playoff. It

849
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:04,560
Speaker 2: seems Kansas City is now looking like they're gonna be

850
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:06,360
Speaker 2: back in the Super Bowl. So it's been one of

851
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:08,280
Speaker 2: those things that I get to buy. Got the Bears

852
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 2: coming up at home. You gotta get on a roll,

853
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,959
Speaker 2: and we talked about making the tournament, but you gotta

854
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:15,160
Speaker 2: win enough games to qualify. So they got their in

855
00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:17,040
Speaker 2: the margin for air. Now they don't have it. They

856
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,480
Speaker 2: got to win, and with all the injuries they have,

857
00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:22,359
Speaker 2: I don't know if they can recover. Hopefully they can.

858
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 2: There's a landa pleasant living roles on guys. The Crabcakes,

859
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 2: the Orange Crushes are great, but the Orioles and the

860
00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:31,160
Speaker 2: Ravens has been rough all the way around. My predictions

861
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:34,560
Speaker 2: a Penn State the Ravens, uh uh, you know, it

862
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,560
Speaker 2: just didn't work in there. So again we got a

863
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:42,160
Speaker 2: long season ahead. The NFL was shown Kansas City. Everybody

864
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:44,560
Speaker 2: was critical. They had injuries. Right, when you have a

865
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:46,799
Speaker 2: ton of injuries, you're reduced to not quite the team

866
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 2: you were, right because they've reduced the mediocrity. But you

867
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 2: get healthier and then you start to show you're the

868
00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:54,839
Speaker 2: team everybody thought you were and could be. So maybe

869
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:58,320
Speaker 2: if the Ravens can get healthy and get that swagger

870
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:00,560
Speaker 2: back and that confidence back in Lamark comes back from

871
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 2: that hamstring, then maybe in this division, which is not

872
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:07,000
Speaker 2: that strong obviously, Pittsburgh finds a way to win games

873
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,400
Speaker 2: Bengals don't have Burrow, and that's why they made the

874
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:11,440
Speaker 2: move for Flacco because they're thinking, maybe we can steal

875
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,439
Speaker 2: some wins and maybe get in this mix. So again,

876
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:16,040
Speaker 2: the division will allow the Ravens and maybe get back

877
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:17,920
Speaker 2: into it. But you gotta start winning football games at

878
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:18,640
Speaker 2: some point.

879
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:20,840
Speaker 4: Mel, We're gonna let you go here in a second,

880
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:23,880
Speaker 4: do you think any of these quarterbacks might tank a

881
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 4: couple of games played poorly because they're trying to avoid

882
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 4: being drafted by the Jets?

883
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:35,120
Speaker 2: Smart well, dis guts is good. Here's Justin Fields. Everybody's

884
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:36,920
Speaker 2: critical of Justin Fields. He can never be in the

885
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:39,160
Speaker 2: same system for two years. If you're not, you know,

886
00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:41,600
Speaker 2: seeing it quickly and throwing and getting it out there

887
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:43,719
Speaker 2: body of your hands and processing, you need to be

888
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:45,839
Speaker 2: in the same system for two or three years. He's

889
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 2: never been afforded that opportunity. So it's kind of in

890
00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 2: the perfect storm against Justin Fields. They're going to find

891
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:52,279
Speaker 2: a quarterback. I don't know who it's gonna be, because

892
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:55,160
Speaker 2: if I'm Dante Moore, I'm not worrying about any of

893
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 2: this nonsense. I'm going back to Oregon. First of all,

894
00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:00,319
Speaker 2: I got to try to kind of bottle what I

895
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 2: did against Penn State and take that through the rest

896
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,719
Speaker 2: of the year. Forget that Indiana game. Flush that game, right,

897
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:08,719
Speaker 2: Flush the Indiana game, Bottle the Penn State game. And

898
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 2: if he does, he's gonna be number one. If he doesn't,

899
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:13,440
Speaker 2: it's an easy decision. You go back. Even if he

900
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,800
Speaker 2: does do that is does he have enough starts? I

901
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 2: would still go back. In terms of Mendoza. Is Mendoz's

902
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:21,400
Speaker 2: gonna play well enough to be worthy at the end?

903
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 2: The guy it's gonna be franchise we'll see, right, And

904
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,279
Speaker 2: then Ty Simpson, what's he gonna play like the rest

905
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:27,680
Speaker 2: of the year? And is that going to be enough starts?

906
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 2: I don't think so. I would go back to Alabama Sellers.

907
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:32,840
Speaker 2: I would go back as well. So who's left, who's

908
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 2: the last man standing at quarterback is going to be

909
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:37,919
Speaker 2: the question. It's certainly Mendoza's going to be in this mix,

910
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,880
Speaker 2: there's no question about that. Does Carson Beck ascend up

911
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:42,400
Speaker 2: that high? We'll see, He's got a hell of a

912
00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 2: supporting cast around him down at Miami. I think it's

913
00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:47,719
Speaker 2: gonna be fun to see how it plays out. But

914
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 2: this quarterback class was supposed to be seven eight nine

915
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,560
Speaker 2: guys deep in terms of early rounders. Now n he

916
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 2: go goes out at UCLA doing some good things. Now

917
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,840
Speaker 2: after struggles early on left Tennessee for UCLA, ever said, O,

918
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:00,920
Speaker 2: why do you do that would happen? He can't win

919
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:02,800
Speaker 2: a game and that he upsets Penn State, thing beats

920
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,280
Speaker 2: Michigan State. See how that plays out. But this quarterback

921
00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,839
Speaker 2: class was suppose that said seven eight nine deep has

922
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:10,440
Speaker 2: not panned out at all. So if you ask me,

923
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,920
Speaker 2: the most disappointing aspect of this draft from what we saw,

924
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 2: said and thought in August to where we are right now,

925
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,400
Speaker 2: it's the quarterback position overall.

926
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,160
Speaker 4: All right, the big board is out, it's on ESPN

927
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,080
Speaker 4: dot com. He'll be all over ESPN. I'm certain promoting it.

928
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:24,799
Speaker 1: Mel.

929
00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:26,400
Speaker 4: Thank you for the time. Are you good with your

930
00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:28,480
Speaker 4: Orioles Mount Rushmore? Do you want to finish that off

931
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:28,839
Speaker 4: for your game?

932
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:29,240
Speaker 1: Yeah?

933
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm ready. Now, I'm ready. This is what I

934
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 2: gotta do. I got it obviously, Brooks and Frank Brooks

935
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:39,360
Speaker 2: and Frank Robinson, Jim Palmer still going struck doing great

936
00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:42,759
Speaker 2: work with the cover of the Orioles as the color commentator,

937
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:44,799
Speaker 2: and my fourth one is a tough one because I'm

938
00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:47,400
Speaker 2: considering ten to eleven, twelve guys we thought about all

939
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:49,840
Speaker 2: the time. But it's got to be the Earl of Baltimore.

940
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:51,760
Speaker 2: That's got to be the Earl of Baltimore.

941
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:52,400
Speaker 1: Thank you.

942
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:54,560
Speaker 2: You can't cause you got the players, You got the

943
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:57,640
Speaker 2: love hate relationship with Earl Weaver and Jim Palmer had,

944
00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 2: you got Brooks and Frank and you got to have

945
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 2: the manager who was as entertaining and as spectacular as

946
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:08,799
Speaker 2: any manager in the history of Major League Baseball. Well, yeah,

947
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:11,800
Speaker 2: and I'll go Earl Weavers.

948
00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:13,240
Speaker 1: That's my Taylor's outrage.

949
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,120
Speaker 4: You've left out Eddie Murray, who I believe had five

950
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 4: hundred homers and three thousand hits.

951
00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 2: So Eddie Murray was great. He was. Eddie Murray made

952
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:21,520
Speaker 2: playing baseball look too easy.

953
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:22,920
Speaker 1: Yeah he did. You're right.

954
00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:25,840
Speaker 2: He made everyone look too easy. He was almost looked like,

955
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 2: well he wasn't given the great effort because he made

956
00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:32,800
Speaker 2: it look so easy. Everything was so instinctual and easy

957
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:37,040
Speaker 2: for Eddie. Switched, hitting first base, everything, he just unbelievable.

958
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:40,000
Speaker 2: Eddie and Cal Bes the friends, right, they were together.

959
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:43,120
Speaker 2: I was young coming up through the ranks, with Jim

960
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 2: Palmer and brooksh Robinson and Frank Robinson and Earl Weaver.

961
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:51,080
Speaker 2: You know, I was in my twenties with col and Eddie,

962
00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:53,120
Speaker 2: so we all can't. So you always go back to

963
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:55,799
Speaker 2: when you were the young years, that kind of the

964
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:59,120
Speaker 2: formative years where you became who created the baseball fan?

965
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:02,160
Speaker 2: We are created a football fan that we are, right,

966
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:04,520
Speaker 2: I'm here with Johnny and IDAs in Baltimore. You kidding me,

967
00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:08,080
Speaker 2: I'm here with already, Donovan. I'm here with with you know,

968
00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:10,120
Speaker 2: you know great players. You thought about the best in

969
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:13,479
Speaker 2: the world. Raymond Barry right behind me, came up. There's

970
00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 2: a playoff there, Raymond Barry right up here. Okay. Bottom

971
00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:19,480
Speaker 2: line is you think about the Colts and the Oriole

972
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:23,560
Speaker 2: players when you're in that six years old to fifteen

973
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:26,320
Speaker 2: year old area. Those are the guys that you remember

974
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 2: the most and you kind of want to credit the

975
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,200
Speaker 2: most for, you know, creating that football fan or that

976
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 2: baseball fan that we are.

977
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, do you know how much I hate Richard Todd

978
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:37,360
Speaker 4: for being just good enough to suck this six or

979
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:39,120
Speaker 4: seven year old kid into the Jets.

980
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:40,520
Speaker 1: I mean, he was just good enough.

981
00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:42,880
Speaker 2: That was what you had, you know, you had go

982
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:46,839
Speaker 2: back to Cleco and Gastono and Lions and the Yeah.

983
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:49,120
Speaker 2: I mean those were some interesting year fund years. So

984
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,400
Speaker 2: we all we all had that. I said, when you

985
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:54,359
Speaker 2: fastward to the sack Pack, I remember being out Christmas Eve,

986
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:57,400
Speaker 2: how about ruining a Christmas Christmas ever? Playing or Raiders?

987
00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:58,880
Speaker 2: And we got the Ghost to the post and I

988
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 2: got the sack Pack and Bert and I got Roger

989
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:05,040
Speaker 2: Carr and Dowdy and everybody going strong. And we end

990
00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:07,279
Speaker 2: up losing that game in overtime to the Raiders. Where

991
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:09,239
Speaker 2: that was. And then the next year after that, Burt

992
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:11,920
Speaker 2: Jones is sacked by al Bubba Baker at the Pontiac

993
00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:14,359
Speaker 2: Silver Dome and a final preseason again sitting down at

994
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:16,799
Speaker 2: the shore down on the Severn River, our family shore

995
00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:20,040
Speaker 2: property and eating crabs, watching listening to the radio of

996
00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:22,759
Speaker 2: Chuck Thompson and Vince Bagley call that game at the

997
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:27,120
Speaker 2: Pontiac Silverdome, final preseason game late August, Burt Jones sacked

998
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:29,759
Speaker 2: by bubb Ban shoulder injury. Okay, we'll be now, not

999
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:33,200
Speaker 2: gonna ruin the year. Ended up having a horrific year.

1000
00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:35,279
Speaker 2: We have got the Dallas Cowboys are playing that first

1001
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,240
Speaker 2: Monday Night, we lose like thirty one to nothing.

1002
00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:37,799
Speaker 3: Right.

1003
00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:40,759
Speaker 2: So again that's why I always say to fans, this,

1004
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 2: to Allevia with this. That was a year where everything

1005
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,160
Speaker 2: was set up for the Colts, this team that was

1006
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 2: on the cusp. They lost that game in overtime to

1007
00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 2: the Raiders, and this is gonna be their year. This

1008
00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:53,279
Speaker 2: is gonna be the next five, six, seven years is

1009
00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:56,600
Speaker 2: gonna be the Colts are gonna dominate. Injuries in football

1010
00:43:57,000 --> 00:44:01,680
Speaker 2: can destroy you and destroy every thing. And so don't

1011
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:04,520
Speaker 2: I can't assue people say in August or September, October

1012
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:06,560
Speaker 2: and make these said we're gonna do this. We make predictions.

1013
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:08,880
Speaker 2: We hope we're right, but don't get so excited that

1014
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:12,800
Speaker 2: we're just I'm always cautiously optimistic on every want to

1015
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:14,239
Speaker 2: go and say we're gonna beat the hell out of

1016
00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:16,200
Speaker 2: his hand. We're gonna do this, We're gonna be great,

1017
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 2: because in football, injuries can destroy you, and they can

1018
00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:24,200
Speaker 2: you know, just you know, eliminate all your enthusiasm and

1019
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:27,400
Speaker 2: your hope is destroyed by injuries. So let's hope, you know,

1020
00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:29,360
Speaker 2: hope and pray it doesn't happen to your team, but

1021
00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:31,279
Speaker 2: you know it seems like every week we got something

1022
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:33,839
Speaker 2: different happened in the NFL with injuries. But that that,

1023
00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:35,920
Speaker 2: I think, going back to the late seventies with the

1024
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:38,239
Speaker 2: Colts is the why I've always been since that point,

1025
00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 2: sitting there eating those crabs and sting hearing to Burt

1026
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,359
Speaker 2: Jones out of shoulder injury was why I never get

1027
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:47,360
Speaker 2: too high about any team in football that I'm rooting for,

1028
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:49,840
Speaker 2: just because of that one factor injury.

1029
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,360
Speaker 4: H Taylor, do you understand why it is? Me and Mikey.

1030
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:55,279
Speaker 4: I love having this man on so much. I made

1031
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:56,800
Speaker 4: a comment about Richard Todd.

1032
00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:03,040
Speaker 1: He took us to a story about ruining Christmas. It's amazing.

1033
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 2: Hey, I can destroy a podcast very quickly.

1034
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:11,120
Speaker 1: Through that, destroying it in a good way.

1035
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:14,440
Speaker 2: I get destroyed Dari and Mel show. Mikey tried to

1036
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:18,200
Speaker 2: reel me. I talked through. I talked, Hey, hey guys,

1037
00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:20,279
Speaker 2: what was the over runner on? How many heart outs?

1038
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:22,640
Speaker 2: I talked Tom, I'm still talking to Mike Now. We

1039
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:24,280
Speaker 2: want the commercial break about now?

1040
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:25,319
Speaker 1: Three minutes?

1041
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:26,040
Speaker 2: The commercial?

1042
00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:29,399
Speaker 1: What what you gotta come back soon?

1043
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:33,120
Speaker 2: Oh my god. We had some wild times that the dark.

1044
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 1: We did that we did well.

1045
00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:41,359
Speaker 4: We appreciate the time, always, Man, you are the absolute greatest.

1046
00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:42,239
