00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:03,840
Speaker 1: Don't listening to Fox Sports Radio.

2
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:07,080
Speaker 2: Well that's right, you heard the man. It's that time

3
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:09,400
Speaker 2: of week. My name is Bernie Frodder. We're coming you live.

8
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 2: the way tire buying should be. Well, if you had

9
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 2: the Houston Texans prior to the season going to the

10
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 2: Super Bowl, you got them at two hundred to one odds,

11
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 2: you might want to light up a cigar. Why not?

12
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,639
Speaker 2: The Texans clinched the playoff spots Saturday night with their

13
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 2: run over the Colts. They're in the tournament. And it

14
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:55,640
Speaker 2: gets even better. Houston could clinch the AFC South with

15
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 2: the Jacksonville loss. Right now, the Texans are the number

16
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 2: six seed, or check that, they're the number seven seed.

17
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 2: Right now. If the Jaguars win and the Bills win,

18
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:11,319
Speaker 2: the Texans are the number six seed. With the Jaguars

19
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 2: win and a Bill's loss. And yes, it gets very

20
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 2: crazy for the Bills because Pittsburgh won today and the

21
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 2: Texans Indianapolis game did not end in a tie. So

22
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 2: if Jacksonville wins on Sunday, guess what that Miami Buffalo

23
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 2: game Sunday Night game number two seventy two is yes,

24
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 2: a winner take all, all are nothing game. Meanwhile, the

25
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Steelers, they got their win over the Ravens, now

26
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 2: they're gonna need some help to make it to the postseason. Pittsburgh,

27
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 2: they will be the number six seed with a Jaguars

28
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 2: loss and a Bills loss. The Steelers will be the

29
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 2: number seven seed with a b Bills win and the

30
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 2: Jaguars loss, or a Jaguars win and a Bill's loss.

31
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 2: If both the Jags and Bills both win, the Steelers

32
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 2: still a good season ten and seven when you consider

33
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 2: where they were several weeks ago and in the year,

34
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 2: the backup quarterback Mason Rudolph paying dividends. What is his

35
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 2: sixth year in the league, something like that. So when

36
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 2: you go to bed tonight in the AFC, the Cleveland

37
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,640
Speaker 2: Browns they're in, they would visit Jacksonville. This is out tonight, Baltimore. Okay,

38
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 2: even though they got beat they had the number one

39
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,079
Speaker 2: seed locked up. You already knew that Jacksonville would host

40
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 2: Cleveland as the four seed, Cleveland the five seed, Kansas

41
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 2: City as the number three seed, would host Buffalo the

42
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 2: number six seed, and the Miami Dolphins would host the

43
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,839
Speaker 2: Houston Texans. The pesky Houston Texans man, they look good,

44
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 2: don't they. They're legit. Can't say enough about to meet Ryans.

45
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 2: If he's not the coach of the year, I don't

46
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:04,959
Speaker 2: know who is. And I'd take nothing away from Kevin

47
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,679
Speaker 2: Stefanski or Dan Campbell or any of the other nine

48
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 2: coaches that people are clamoring for. But we were told

49
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 2: by people who think they are smart, who the hell

50
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 2: would want the Houston Texans job. It's a dead end job.

51
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,679
Speaker 2: They're going nowhere. Look what Tamiko Ryans is done and c. J.

52
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,679
Speaker 2: Stroud has done. Now that's footwork, that's operating from the pocket,

53
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 2: that's keeping your eyes downfield. What a terrific player. And

54
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 2: I got to tell you, Houston would give Miami everything

55
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 2: they could ask for because he seems good on defense

56
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 2: and they're very physical. That's the AFC picture. When you

57
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 2: go to bed tonight San Francisco and the NFC, they've

58
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 2: got the number one seed, Tampa Bay would host Philadelphia

59
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 2: as the number five seed. Tampa Bay would be the

60
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 2: four seed. The matchup that folks would are talking about

61
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 2: that I think they would like to see most. The

62
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 2: Detroit Lions host the La Rams. The Rams would be

63
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 2: the sixth seed, the Lines would be the three seed,

64
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 2: and then Dallas would host Green Bay. Dallas is the

65
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 2: number two seed, Green Bay's the seven seed. But a

66
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 2: lot of things have to happen, and we're gonna get

67
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 2: to all of that tonight, heavy NFL centric. The Phasik

68
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 2: five is back in about ten minutes. We'll go through

69
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 2: the schedule, give us, you'll give you our thoughts and

70
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 2: things of that nature. Of course, at midnight, Mark medeena

71
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,599
Speaker 2: Medina managine we covered all. We will dive into. The

72
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 2: NBA will have to take a look into history. Has

73
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 2: an NBA Cup champ ever missed the playoffs? The Lakers

74
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 2: could be making history. And I'm not kidding, I'm not kidding.

75
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 2: There's trouble in Paradise. Well to get into that. Meanwhile,

76
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 2: the Crosstown Ravels, well, they're pretty good and we'll get

77
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 2: into why. And oh my goodness, Draymond Green, don't look now,

78
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 2: the lovable Draymond Green could be back in the fold

79
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 2: sooner than you think. We'll talk about that as well

80
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 2: as we head into the final betting weekend of the

81
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 2: regular season. In the NFL Week eighteen, few quick hitters

82
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 2: that you should probably know about the Browns. They're nine

83
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 2: to two versus the Bengals since the start of twenty eighteen,

84
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 2: their best record against any team over that span. In addition,

85
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,280
Speaker 2: Cleveland is four and oh against the spread in their

86
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 2: past four games. Cincinnati owned three against the number in

87
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 2: their past three games. Just a thought if you will

88
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 2: be wagering on that game. The Minnesota Vikings. They're four

89
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 2: to oh against the number as a Roade underdog this season.

90
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 2: They're seven to one against the spread overall in their

91
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 2: last eight games on the road. They visit Detroit as

92
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 2: a very short favorite. Tennessee nine to one straight up

93
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 2: and against the spread during the regular season under Mike

94
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 2: Vrabel when they have nine or more days rest. I

95
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:59,239
Speaker 2: don't know if that trend correlates here. The Tennessee Titans

96
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 2: look like a drunk crossing an icy street. And I

97
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,720
Speaker 2: don't think Mike Rabel forgot how to coach. I just

98
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,159
Speaker 2: don't think Tennessee. Is any good one game that I

99
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 2: have fired on? Yes, you're New England Patriots. Will this

100
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 2: be Bill belichick swansong in New England? I give it

101
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 2: about a ninety percent. It's not one hundred percent. He'll

102
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 2: have a caucus with Robert Kraft later this week, and

103
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 2: I think it's about a ninety percenter. He moves on

104
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,239
Speaker 2: the Patriots, though they have won fifteen straight versus the Jets,

105
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 2: the longest active win streak in the NFL by one

106
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 2: team against another, and not for nothing the Jets, well

107
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 2: they're rowing six against teams currently with losing records this season.

108
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 2: Go figure. By the way side, note Bill Belichick hates

109
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 2: the Jets. He's just got it in for them. And

110
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 2: I think you're gonna get a tremendous effort in bad

111
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 2: weather in New England Sunday. Out of New England. They

112
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 2: would like to send Bill Belichick off with a win,

113
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 2: assuming that ninety percenter comes through and he's gone. The Eagles.

114
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 2: We're gonna get into this later. Want to give the

115
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 2: Eagles a bit of a hall passer. Remember they lost

116
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl last year, and history is not

117
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 2: kind to teams that lose in the Super Bowl the

118
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 2: following season. So when Philly got out to the gaudy

119
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 2: record they did, perhaps it was a bit of a

120
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 2: fagazy and now they're regressing back to the mean. But

121
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 2: they are one and six against the spread after an

122
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 2: outright loss over the past two seasons, with six of

123
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 2: those seven games going under the total. By the way,

124
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 2: not for nothing, the forty nine Ers, they've been favored

125
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 2: in twenty five straight regular season games. That's the second

126
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 2: longest active streak. The Chiefs are number one at twenty

127
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 2: seven straight. They're laying a short number against the Rams, Chargers, Ah,

128
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 2: the Chargers, the rudderless Chargers. They're rowing to five against

129
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 2: the spread and division games this season. And you know,

130
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 2: just again, one final thought, the Ravens. They've clinched the

131
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 2: number one seed. The forty Nineers have clinched the number

132
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 2: one seed. The Dolphins, Chiefs, Browns, Cowboys, Lions, Eagles, and

133
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 2: Rams they've all clinched playoff spots. Week eighteen is going

134
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 2: to hold some drama. There are a lot of teams

135
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 2: that are in the hunt. The Jaguars, Bills, Colts, Texans, Steelers, Buccaneers, Packers, Seahawks, Saints,

136
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 2: Vikings and Falcons are still in the hunt parody. Do

137
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 2: you spell at p A r I t U y

138
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 2: R pr p A r O d Y. He's for

139
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 2: me to say, of course, eliminaded. Thanks for participating. Broncos Bengals,

140
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 2: Raiders significant game though at Allegiance Stadium. I'll be there

141
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 2: for that. It's I think the Antonio Pierce Bowl players

142
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 2: love him, and he's done a really good job I

143
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 2: think change the culture. But I'm told Mark Davis has

144
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 2: one more big swing in him. Good was considered a

145
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 2: very big swing. Josh McDaniels, for reasons beyond me, was

146
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 2: considered a big swing. He's got another big swing. We're

147
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 2: not sure if he'll connect, but if he does, he'd

148
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 2: better found his man. It rhymes with Jim Harbaugh. Don't

149
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 2: pooh pooh it. I don't know if it's gonna happen.

150
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 2: I'm already on record for what I know. It's a

151
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 2: seventy percent chance hardball will leave Michigan. Not one hundred

152
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 2: things have to fall into place. It's a seventy percent chance.

153
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 2: And the number one team that I think is being

154
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 2: earmarked with the Raiders, Carolina Panthers, out Bears I doubt it,

155
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 2: and I don't think they're gonna fire Ebles fous Chargers.

156
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 2: They can't get out of their own way. Maybe they'll

157
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 2: fool me, maybe they won't. But four divisions are still

158
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 2: undecided Sunday, three wildcards remain unclaimed. You get it, Sunday,

159
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 2: It's gonna be a lot of fun to watch you.

160
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:42,079
Speaker 2: We'll get into some of the specifics later in the show.

161
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 2: The NFC wildcard really has my eye because the Packers,

162
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 2: they're eight and eight. They can claim the final spot

163
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 2: with a win over the Bears, and then I do

164
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 2: agree to the folks you hear Jason and Aaron the

165
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 2: Packers defense. Even though they have a bunch of first

166
00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 2: rounders on the roster, Boy, they've underperformed, but I think

167
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 2: they got one in for the Bears. I love Justin

168
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,560
Speaker 2: Feels as a person. Everybody had know that's met him

169
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:07,679
Speaker 2: thinks of the world of him. He can't operate from

170
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 2: the pocket. He's a college version of an option quarter

171
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 2: or of a dual threat quarterback. He likes to run first.

172
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:18,439
Speaker 2: That's why everybody's gaga. But listen, he takes way too

173
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 2: long to get rid of the ball, and he's not accurate.

174
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 2: I'm not going to get caught up in the emotion

175
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,079
Speaker 2: of these last few weeks. If the Bears want to

176
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 2: bring it back next year, go ahead. We'll see what happens.

177
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 2: But I'm sufficiently convinced. He's ten and twenty seven in

178
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 2: his career as a starter, He's only had one three

179
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 2: hundred game as a starter, and he does everything pretty

180
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 2: well except operate from the pocket. Other than that, he

181
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 2: might be in the Hall of Fame someday. But I'm

182
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 2: watching that Packers Bear game, and a loss could open

183
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 2: the door for the Seahawks and the Vikings and the

184
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:49,080
Speaker 2: Bucks and Saints. And you got to have a failanx

185
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 2: of attorneys and Dallas Cowboys, cheerleaders and accountants to figure

186
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 2: this thing out. But we've got to figure it out.

213
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 2: of the remainder of Week eighteen in the NFL, a

214
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 2: very pivotal week when you turn on the TV this

215
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 2: time Sunday night, you'll have all the playoff matchups. When where?

216
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 2: Maybe not why, but certainly when and where? So what

217
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 2: better time to resume a feature on this show. You

218
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 2: know them, you love them, you can't leave without them. Yep,

219
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 2: it's time.

220
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 1: The time is not it's the phasiic five. These are

221
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:45,439
Speaker 1: the five things you need to hear about. Not with

222
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 1: the only backed up back Hilton Super Contest winner Steve

223
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:55,119
Speaker 1: fig Here's Bernie Frado, Well, Fez, hope.

224
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 2: You enjoyed your holidays and good to have you back.

225
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 2: And before we dive into this slate, couple bits of business.

226
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,959
Speaker 2: How did you finish up in the various contests in town?

227
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 2: I know that many of them, you know, attract as

228
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 2: many as five thousand entrants, and you always manage to

229
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:15,840
Speaker 2: find your way in the top ten, if not better.

230
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 2: How'd you do well?

231
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 5: To be honest for you, I could spend the entire

232
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 5: segment talking about it. But the best contest right now,

233
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 5: believe it or not, Circus Survivor, where I have a

234
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 5: sixteen percent share of Greg Jones. They started with nine

235
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,720
Speaker 5: thousand people. Now I wasn't there back in September, but

236
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 5: right before Thanksgiving, I bought in a investor's share, and

237
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 5: I continued to buy late in November early December, so

238
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 5: I got up to sixteen percent where I invested in

239
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 5: Greg and he's run the table. There's four people left

240
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:52,439
Speaker 5: first prizes nine point three million. There is a shop potential.

241
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 5: They chop most of it. They're playing for a little bit.

242
00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 5: But Greg has the Raiders tomorrow to win, to be

243
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 5: a survivor the entire way, and a competitor has the Raiders,

244
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,959
Speaker 5: and two others have the Cincinnati Bengal.

245
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 2: It's very exciting interesting. Well, you're like a regular hedge

246
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,199
Speaker 2: front operator. Bobby Axeron's got nothing on you, and people

247
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 2: have to google that.

248
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 5: I guess, well, you know what, the crack man has

249
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 5: a share of my survivor. So it's like the big short.

250
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 5: It's like a collatterized CMO. It's like we don't even

251
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 5: know who owns who what. It's so shopped up. Circum millions,

252
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 5: of course, is the biggest handicapping contest coming into this week.

253
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 5: I was tied for tenth out of fifty three hundred people,

254
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,920
Speaker 5: so going to be a big Sunday, hoping to finish

255
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 5: in the top ten. There still alive in the Westgates

256
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 5: Super Contest, where I sit at thirty seventh, a couple

257
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 5: entries at thirty seventh, and the Westgates Seasonal Win Contest Bernie,

258
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 5: which I've finished top five to in the last three

259
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 5: years sixteen and eight with eight games left to be decided,

260
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 5: so I'm in the running there as well.

261
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 2: And of course, let's not forget you're the only two

262
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 2: time winner back to back of the prestigious Hilton now

263
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 2: Westgate Super Conscious and I love the Big Shorts. They

264
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 2: came out in the Christmas in twenty fifteen and it

265
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 2: was an outstanding movie about the subprime crisis. But I digress.

266
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 2: Let's dive into this schedule. A team I've mentioned multiple

267
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 2: times tonight already, the Jacksonville Jaguars. They are at the Titans.

268
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 2: Jags sport a nine and seven record, they're laying three

269
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 2: and a half. This game is all about the Jags.

270
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 2: They can actually win the AFT South with a win,

271
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 2: but they can still clinch a wild card spot if

272
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 2: they lose. Not so much anymore, because that would have

273
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 2: meant the Steelers had to lose, and the Steelers didn't lose.

274
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 2: They also need a Broncos loss, but it's moot at

275
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 2: this point, do you lay the by the way before

276
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 2: I go move forward fast? Because the theme that I

277
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 2: you know, I hate the term must win because thirty

278
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 2: one of the thirty two teams in the National Football

279
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 2: League will lose the game they must win every year.

280
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 2: But here's another stat for the folks. Since nineteen ninety,

281
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 2: when the team has been eliminated completely and they are

282
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 2: facing a team who must win to get into the playoffs,

283
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 2: the team has been eliminated covers sixty one percent of

284
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 2: the time. I don't know if I can hold my

285
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 2: nose and take the Titans supposed three and a half.

286
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 2: Your thoughts, well.

287
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 5: Now we can hold her nose and take them plus

288
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 5: five because we've got a confirmation that Lawrence is playing,

289
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 5: and we knew he was going to cut it out

290
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 5: and play frankly anyways more than likely. So at five absolutely,

291
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,920
Speaker 5: who are the Titans with an injured quarterback to be

292
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 5: laying five? I'm sorry, who are the Jags to be

293
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 5: laying five? You know? It's interesting burning is that the

294
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 5: Steelers can make the playoffs two ways. They need a

295
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 5: Jacksonville loss or a Buffalo loss. Both those teams are

296
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 5: favored however, but they're not favored by a lot, so

297
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 5: the Steelers despite them. If all things going according to Hoyle,

298
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 5: they'll be out, but they will be in if they

299
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 5: can get one upset. I might make the argument if

300
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 5: if Pittsburgh doesn't make the playoffs, that they are the

301
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 5: one team this year that actually won there must win

302
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 5: games and still won't make the playoffs.

303
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:09,680
Speaker 2: Wow. All right, another game of playoff implications. The Saints

304
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:13,679
Speaker 2: are at home laying three against the Falcons. The Saints

305
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,439
Speaker 2: need to win and a Buccaneers lost to win the

306
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:20,879
Speaker 2: NFC South. Uh, they're not gonna have Alvin Kamara even

307
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 2: worse Derek Carr. It looks like we'll be starting for

308
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 2: the Saints. You know how I feel about Derek Carr.

309
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:27,160
Speaker 2: Your thoughts on this game?

310
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 5: Oh, I got publicly like like chastised correctly. So I

311
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 5: still had Derek Carr labeled as a above average quarterback

312
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 5: and I'm like, that's not right. I have to ague

313
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 5: but you meant the USFL though you didn't mean the NFL,

314
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,679
Speaker 5: you know, and now it's going to be just the

315
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 5: United Football League because they've merged the two. But the

316
00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 5: I make the game three, so it's right, where it's at.

317
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:51,920
Speaker 5: I did take Atlanta and the contest plus three and

318
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 5: a half. I got to be honest, burning, I think

319
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 5: Atlanta's gonna lose. I'm probably gonna I'm probably gonna scout,

320
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 5: but I'm probably gonna play back some Saints on the

321
00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 5: money line.

322
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough is a game I'm going to be

323
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:04,879
Speaker 2: involved in. I'm very selective for Sunday, and I was

324
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 2: very happy to have the Houston Texas Saturday night. Okay,

325
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:11,399
Speaker 2: another game, very important. Tampa Bay laying four and a

326
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,159
Speaker 2: half at the hapless Panthers two and fourteen, pretty simple.

327
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,359
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay can win the NSC South. You can secure

328
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 2: a home game in the first round by just simply

329
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:27,359
Speaker 2: beating the hapless Panthers. I cannot make a case at

330
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 2: all for the Panthers period. Maybe you can, Yeah, let

331
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:32,440
Speaker 2: me try here.

332
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:36,400
Speaker 5: So last week, Carolina was on the road and they

333
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 5: were at Jacksonville, and Jacksonville is every bed that's good

334
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,439
Speaker 5: even without Lawrence as Tampa Bay or they're certainly in

335
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 5: the same conversation. So people were cutting in line to

336
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 5: bet Carolina plus four on the road at Jacksonville. Well, obviously,

337
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 5: Carolina at home catching four against Tampa is much much

338
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 5: more attractive. Where Carolina plays is much better. I'm probably

339
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 5: gonna invest invest a little, not a lot in Carolina.

340
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 2: Well, you know, if history is correct, you have a

341
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,880
Speaker 2: sixty one percent chance of covering that game. And I'm

342
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 2: sure Tampa Bay would take their win by a field goal.

343
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 2: Go home right now, although they don't have to go home.

344
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 2: They're already at home all right. A game actually that

345
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 2: might have some historical significance, even though both of these

346
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,640
Speaker 2: teams could pack their golf clubs for Florida right after

347
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,280
Speaker 2: the game. The Jets six and ten at the Pats

348
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,399
Speaker 2: four and twelve in New England, only laying two. It

349
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:32,440
Speaker 2: could be Bill Belichick's final game as the Patriots coach.

350
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 2: We're looking at a potential snow game. Here, a couple

351
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 2: of quarterback legends, Trevor Simeon versus Bailey's Appy. This is

352
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 2: a game I can actually make a case for both sides,

353
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,440
Speaker 2: but I would only look to the Patriots. Bill Belichick

354
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 2: hates the Patriots Jets. He's beaten them fifteen times. Your thoughts, Yeah.

355
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,919
Speaker 5: Let's bet both sides. So I make the Patriots one

356
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,120
Speaker 5: and a half points better. So I did live their home.

357
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 5: So I did lay the Patriots miss one twenty five

358
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,680
Speaker 5: with a total twenty nine and a half and horrific

359
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,440
Speaker 5: weather Boys. It looks like New England wins this game

360
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,960
Speaker 5: sixteen to ten. I'm going to go with the Jets

361
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 5: in teasers as well, from the two up to the

362
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:12,239
Speaker 5: plus eight.

363
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 2: That might be a good play, especially with the snow game.

364
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,800
Speaker 2: You know, this game has thirteen to ten written all

365
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 2: over it, honest to god, and I don't know how

366
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 2: they get to thirty points, Faz. We have a lot

367
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 2: of other games to get to that have significance like

368
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:34,679
Speaker 2: the Chiefs, Chargers, Denver Raiders, Buffalo, Miami Rams, and Philly Giants.

369
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 2: I want to talk about and next up we want

370
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 2: to talk about Chicago Green Bay affs and thoughts about that.

371
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,160
Speaker 2: So sit tight right there because we are going to continue.

372
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,919
Speaker 2: But first let's go to our guys, Chef Kevin Wired

373
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:47,679
Speaker 2: with the latest.

374
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,719
Speaker 6: Yeah, Bernie, big day in the NFL, at least if

375
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 6: you're the Houston Texans. That's because for the first time

376
00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 6: since twenty nineteen, they're heading to the playoffs.

377
00:20:56,920 --> 00:21:00,640
Speaker 7: Here's Johnston to free kick with one second left. Let's

378
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 7: it rip downs back deep at the thirteen, He's gonna

379
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 7: run with it across the fifteen to twenty laterals back

380
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,640
Speaker 7: to Pittman, and Pittman laterals back and.

381
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 3: The ball is loose and the Texans fall on it

382
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 3: and it's over.

383
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,480
Speaker 1: The Texans aren't going to the playoffs.

384
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,880
Speaker 8: They knock off Indy twenty three to nineteen.

385
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 6: That was Mark vandermir on Kilt Houston with the call,

386
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:27,119
Speaker 6: as the Texans getting a big first half from CJ. Stroud,

387
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 6: who had two touchdown passes to get themselves into the

388
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 6: postseason just a year after they won just three games.

389
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:37,399
Speaker 6: As for the Colts, despite a strong effort from Jonathan Taylor,

390
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,439
Speaker 6: who had one hundred and eighty eight yards on thirty

391
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:43,120
Speaker 6: Carr's and a touchdown, but despite that, the Colts get

392
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 6: themselves eliminated from postseason contention. The first game of the

393
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 6: day saw the Steelers keep their playoff hopes alive, batting

394
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 6: the Baltimore Ravens seventeen to ten. Lamar Jackson did not play,

395
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 6: and the Steelers win did come at a cost, as TJ.

396
00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 6: Watts suffered a Grade three MCL spring more tests coming tomorrow,

397
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 6: but Wats availability for a possible playoff opener is in doubt.

398
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,919
Speaker 6: The Steelers still do need a loss by the Jaguars

399
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,639
Speaker 6: or a loss by the Buffalo Bills tomorrow to make

400
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 6: the postseason. Other football news, LSU wide receiver Moleak Neighbors

401

406

Speaker 6: and twenty nine on the season, the Celtics ending the

Speaker 6: of ranked teams in the ACC against number sixteen Clemson

418
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,920
Speaker 6: sixty five to fifty five. Back to you, Bernie, all.

419
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 2: Right, we resume with the FESIG five. Lots of matchups

420
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 2: to get to, including some final thoughts, and I want

421
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,760
Speaker 2: it fest to even look ahead to a potential anticipated

422
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 2: matchup in the wildcard round. But let's go to the

423
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,919
Speaker 2: friendly confines of Green Bay where the Packers are laying three.

424
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,879
Speaker 2: We pretty much know what has to happen here. The

425
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 2: Packers are in the number seven spot. They can clinch

426
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 2: a playoff berth with a win over the Bears. Pack

427
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 2: can still make the playoffs with a loss, but they

428
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,399
Speaker 2: would need a Seahawks loss, a Vikings loss, and I

429
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:57,200
Speaker 2: lost by either the Saints or the Buccaneers, so they

430
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 2: do hold their faith. I don't have any faith in

431
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:03,440
Speaker 2: the I'm not caught up in this recent emotion where

432
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 2: the Bears have gone, you know, successful down the stretch

433
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 2: and meetingless games. Your thoughts on Bears Packers.

434
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:12,919
Speaker 5: I have no faith in either of these two teams.

435
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,120
Speaker 5: Where I've got them rated virtually equal. Okay, I got

436
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,480
Speaker 5: green Bay half a point better two for home field.

437
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 5: That gets me to two and a half, which means

438
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 5: I have to invest in the Bears for any plus

439
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 5: the three.

440
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,240
Speaker 2: Really, it's just just based on the number, right, nothing else.

441
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 5: That and the fact that green Bay absolutely owns Chicago

442
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,360
Speaker 5: and whacked them already earlier in the year. So this

443
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 5: is the The Bears aren't going to the playoffs, so

444
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 5: this is their super Bowl. And green Bay's banged up

445
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 5: on injuries.

446
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:44,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and we were told Pittsford was banged up today too.

447
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 2: You saw what kind of effort we got out of them.

448
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 2: I just here's the thing, Fez, because you're really sharp

449
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 2: on these things. If you like the Bears plus three,

450
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:53,640
Speaker 2: why not just play them on the money.

451
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 5: Line because the line is actually two point eight two

452
00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 5: point seven five. What do I mean by that? There's

453
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,719
Speaker 5: two and has and there's three. So like if it

454
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:04,399
Speaker 5: was a pure three, I would get a like an

455
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 5: attractive like plus one forty two on the money line.

456
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 5: The best I can do is a plus one thirty

457
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 5: five warning danger math coming. It turns out plus three

458
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 5: laidar ten. If you just bet that you know over

459
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,960
Speaker 5: one thousand games, you'll you'll do better than betting plus

460
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 5: one thirty five.

461
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 2: All right, the Eagles Giants game Full disclosure. I grabbed

462
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 2: the Giants earlier in the week. They're five and a

463
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,679
Speaker 2: half point home dogs. I'm not going to explain why

464
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,720
Speaker 2: this game is actually significant to the Eagles. They're currently

465
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 2: the number five seed the NFC. But if Philadelphia wins

466
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:42,120
Speaker 2: and Dallas loses Sunday, Philly would win the NFC East

467
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,160
Speaker 2: and they would get the number two seed. So you're

468
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,640
Speaker 2: gonna get max effort out of Philadelphia. But I don't

469
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:47,920
Speaker 2: have a lot of faith and they're going to go

470
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 2: in and win by margin on the road. I actually

471
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,400
Speaker 2: like the Giants plus the points your thoughts, So.

472
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 5: You'll get max effort out of Philly in the first half,

473
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 5: there's no doubt about that. Then it gets very dicey

474
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 5: because what happens is they go in locker room in

475
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 5: Dallas is up twenty eight to seven. Then all of

476
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,199
Speaker 5: a sudden, Dalla's not going to hurt and injured on

477
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 5: what previously was the most dangerous stadium for players to

478
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,760
Speaker 5: play in the NFL. Apparently the turf is better now

479
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,440
Speaker 5: The bottom line is, I think you watch the Dallas

480
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,400
Speaker 5: game very closely, and if Dallas is separating from Washington

481
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 5: big time, then that's your cue live betting or at

482
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 5: half to go ahead and bet on the Giants against

483
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,359
Speaker 5: a suddenly disinterested Philly team at that point.

484
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 2: So let's talk about Dallas. They visit the Commandos, I like,

485
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 2: I always call him the Commandos. The Lin's still minus thirteen, right,

486
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 2: Dallas is a thirteen point favorite on the road.

487
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 5: They are yes, And Dallas doesn't play nearly as well

488
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:45,800
Speaker 5: on the road as they do at home, especially their defense.

489
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 5: So you could talk me into playing the Washington team

490
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,880
Speaker 5: total over sixteen and a half points, and I'll lean

491
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,359
Speaker 5: to Washington. But I got to tell you, tell you

492
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,480
Speaker 5: what they're the Commos. They are.

493
00:26:58,240 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 9: I don't want to.

494
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 5: Bet on Washington, so just don't know them to Washington.

495
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:05,159
Speaker 2: No, this is one game I wouldn't bet period, to

496
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:09,639
Speaker 2: stay away from it. It's real simple. If Dallas wins,

497
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 2: they clinched the NFC East with a win. If they

498
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,880
Speaker 2: lose and the Eagles win, Dallas is the number five seed.

499
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 2: But Dallas just has to win. Ron Rivera's birthday is Monday,

500
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 2: head coach of the Commandos or the Komodes as you

501
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 2: call it, and as a birthday present. It's been widely reported.

502
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 2: Don't know if it's true. Yogi Berra said it's tough

503
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 2: to predict the future. Even if it's the future or

504
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 2: something like that. Ron Rivera might not be the coach

505
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 2: on Tuesday. So how do you bet that game?

506
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 8: Right?

507
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 2: You don't? All right? Seattle Seahawks another road favorite, laying

508
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 2: two and a half at the Arizona Cardinals. Carler Burry's

509
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,840
Speaker 2: actually been playing very good football as of late, and

510
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 2: I do expect you know, I know, all those years

511
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:57,879
Speaker 2: I covered the those bad Detroit Lions teams, it was

512
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 2: really a novelty for them to screw up someone else

513
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,240
Speaker 2: the season when they got to the last few weeks.

514
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 2: So right now, the Seahawks sitting in the number eighth spot,

515
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 2: but they do hold the time breaker over the Saints

516
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 2: based on having a better record in conference games. But

517
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 2: the Seahawks a win and a Packers lost to make

518
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:17,880
Speaker 2: the playoffs. Seattle wins and Green Bay wins, Seattle's out

519
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,879
Speaker 2: first order of business. Seattle's got a win. Might not

520
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 2: be so easy your thoughts on that game.

521
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:24,960
Speaker 5: It's not going to be easy. I only made the

522
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,399
Speaker 5: game too, so it was an automatic bet on an

523
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 5: Arizona Cardinal team that is playing very well. You know,

524
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 5: they gave up almost one hundred yard defensive touchdown against

525
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,680
Speaker 5: Philly still won as a twelve point dog. Last week.

526
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 5: Arizona's season win number was four to four and a half.

527
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 5: They're sitting on four wins. The reason that's significant, Arizona

528
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,120
Speaker 5: is five points better. I've upgraded them five points in

529
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 5: my power ratings, Bernie, and yet somehow this team still

530
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 5: has not gone over their season win total. But I

531
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 5: think they get there tomorrow.

532
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 2: All right, let's jump to the Rams forty nine ers,

533
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 2: a game where virtually no one's going to play, none

534
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 2: of the starters. The Rams are the sixth seed in

535
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 2: the conference if clintch the playoff birth hold that thought

536
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:04,719
Speaker 2: because I'm going to come back to it for our

537
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 2: final question. The Rams seal up the number six seed

538
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:11,560
Speaker 2: if they win or the Packers lose. But if the

539
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 2: Packers win and the Rams lose, they fall to the

540
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 2: number seven seed against the Rams, catching four points to

541
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 2: your thoughts, the.

542
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 5: Game really doesn't mean anything to either team. Six or

543
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 5: seven seed doesn't matter. That much, and the Rams have

544
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 5: to play next week and Niners don't. Because of that,

545
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 5: I expect the Niners are the starters that get the

546
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 5: play a half and the Rams don't. I would only

547
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 5: look Niners all right.

548
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 2: Broncos Raiders will be at the game tomorrow in the

549
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:41,520
Speaker 2: media buffet line. It's the Antonio Pierce Bowl. I think

550
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:45,240
Speaker 2: the Raiders will give a massive effort, even though they're

551
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:48,800
Speaker 2: going against George Stidham, who ironically was in the same

552
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 2: boat last year after Derek Carr got sent packing Raiders

553
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 2: minus three. Rooting for you, Fez, because I understand your

554
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 2: situation with respect to the Survivor contest of DESIRCA, but

555
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 2: I can't make a case at off for the Broncos.

556
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 2: Here your thoughts, yep.

557
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 5: I've got the Raiders and Survivor. I'm fine with that,

558
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,959
Speaker 5: and I've got although personally, I remember I don't get

559
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:14,479
Speaker 5: to twos. I'm just an investor. I would have chosen Detroit.

560
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 5: I would have chosen Detroit if it was me. But

561
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 5: I'm fine with the Raiders, and I do have the Raiders.

562
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 5: FIUs two and a half. In my Circa Millions contest,

563
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 5: you nailed it. It's all about one team extremely excited

564
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 5: to perform for the coach, another team mailing it in

565
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 5: in the.

566
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 2: Broncos well, and the thing it's more of a fade

567
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,920
Speaker 2: on the Broncos. I agree with you, Detroit. Probably it

568
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 2: might be a safer play if you don't know what

569
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 2: you're gonna get with the Raiders all the time. But

570
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 2: I would say this, the Raiders defense really has looked

571
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 2: pretty darn good in recent weeks. Finally, a tea faz

572
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 2: Sunday night. If you're not if you're not picked out

573
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 2: your spot in your barcolaung Er, you might want to

574
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 2: do it soon. Game number two seventy two of Bills

575
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 2: and Dolphins. Here we go. The Bills could be facing

576
00:30:56,800 --> 00:31:00,000
Speaker 2: that crazy playoff scenario that we thought could happen. Because

577
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh won today, the Houston Texans game did not end

578
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 2: a tie, and if Jacksonville wins, Buffalo has to win

579
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 2: or they are on the outside looking in. Can you

580
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 2: imagine that they have to win Sunday night or on

581
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 2: the they're on the outside looking now. Miami is the

582
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 2: number two seed the NFC. They've already clinched a playoff spot,

583
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,959
Speaker 2: So if the Dolphins lose they'll just end up as

584
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 2: a number six seed. I'll actually like Buffalo in the game,

585
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 2: Buffalo minus two and a half.

586
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 5: Your thoughts, Yeah, one of those games where you could

587
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,960
Speaker 5: lay too and a half or take three with the Dolphins.

588
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 5: I'd rather take the three with Miami. And here here's

589
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 5: the compo. Give two weeks ago, Miami was playing and

590
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 5: hosting Dallas. Miami was laying one and a half in

591
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 5: that game. They won, they covered well. The Bills in

592
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,200
Speaker 5: Dallas are extremely comparable teams in my power rings. Now.

593
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 5: I get it, Miami's more injured now, but if they

594
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 5: were able to succeed at home minus one and a half,

595
00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 5: certainly they can succeed plus three. I'll lean to the

596
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 5: Dolphins plus the three.

597
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 2: And acknowledging and you're missing two key offensive players.

598
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,080
Speaker 5: Absolutely, and that's why the line can move two points,

599
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:05,600
Speaker 5: it cannot move four and a half points.

600
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:08,240
Speaker 2: For those we haven't talked about a total in any

601
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 2: of these games. I believe it's currently forty eight forty

602
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 2: eight and a half. Is that fair? Endom Bills Dolphins?

603
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:14,120
Speaker 2: Is that the number you're seeing?

604
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 5: You know, I just clicked on sides only on my

605
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 5: premium line service. It is down to forty eight and

606
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 5: a half. Yes, it was as high as see and

607
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 5: I agree with the move.

608
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 2: I like the under Okay, I was going to ask

609
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 2: you which side you might favor in that game. I'm

610
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 2: not touching the game, but I might have I might

611
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:32,840
Speaker 2: have leaned over, but I'm not going to be involved

612
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 2: in that game fans. For purposes of tonight's segment, the

613
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 2: one matchup a lot of folks are clamoring for, and

614
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,600
Speaker 2: I certainly understand why. Where If the Rams were to

615
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 2: visit Detroit next week in the first round of the

616
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:48,240
Speaker 2: wild Card playoffs, there will be storylines galor to be

617
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 2: a highly charged game for reasons I don't even need

618
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:54,280
Speaker 2: to explain. Out of the gate, I would make the

619
00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 2: Lions minus three. What would you make the line in

620
00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 2: which side would you favor?

621
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 5: I too, would make the Lions minus three. Here's the

622
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 5: mass pulling back the curtains of the Rams. I've got

623
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,960
Speaker 5: three points better than an average team. I've got the

624
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 5: Lions like four four and a half better. So the

625
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 5: Lions are just a slightly better team with the home

626
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 5: field advantage, and they'll be a little more rested. I guess,

627
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 5: actually that's not really true. Both teams are kind of

628
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 5: you know, don't have to play their starters the whole

629
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 5: way this week, although I think the Rams will in

630
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:27,120
Speaker 5: the first half with home field Lions minus three fair ENOUGHZ.

631
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 2: Do you have a best bet for the folks tomorrow?

632
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 2: And I particularly look forward to the playoffs segments of

633
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 2: the Physic five as we get closer to the super

634
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:39,680
Speaker 2: Bowl because your super Bowl Prop Extravaganza is one of

635
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 2: the favorite shows of the year. The cards and letters

636
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 2: are just coming in like crazy. The best bet for

637
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 2: Sunday Fest do you have one?

638
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 9: Yeah?

639
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 5: So this did not make my card because the line

640
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 5: was two and a half and I'm not going to

641
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:52,480
Speaker 5: take plus two and a half when I could bet

642
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:56,640
Speaker 5: plus three. But absolutely for betting purposes, Arizona Cardinals plus

643
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 5: three get that tonight. It's still available. It won't be

644
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 5: available in my opinion tomorrow morning when you wake up.

645
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 2: Love it Fez, Good luck Sunday as always, and we'll

646
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:07,000
Speaker 2: talk to you next week.

647
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:09,640
Speaker 5: Thank you. You're the best Bernie.

648
00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:12,640
Speaker 2: That is Steve Fick de Pi five and again you

649
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 2: can see once again performing very admirably in these in

650
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,720
Speaker 2: the Circle Contest, the Westgate Contests, et cetera, et cetera.

651
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:28,919
Speaker 2: Coming up, we revisit the various divisions and what has

652
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,560
Speaker 2: to happen is a lot of them are still undecided

653
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 2: as we continue to cover it all NFL wall to wall.

654
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:36,759
Speaker 2: Here in the first hour on the Bernie Frattle Show,

655
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 2: I'm Bernie Fraddle, re coveredy live from Las Vegas, Fox

662
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:07,400
Speaker 2: Al right, back on the Burdi Final Show, Fox Sports

663
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 2: Radio Company Live Direct dot Com Studios. Here in the

664
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 2: Las Vegas top of the hour, Medina Magic, we dive

665
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:20,760
Speaker 2: into the NBA, but some unfinished business here the AFC East.

666
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 2: This is the Biggie. The Bills will play the Dolphins

667
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:28,759
Speaker 2: for the division title Sunday night. He might be a

668
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:30,960
Speaker 2: winner take all. Even though Buffalo has the third best

669
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,960
Speaker 2: Super Bowl odds, they can actually miss the playoffs with

670
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 2: a loss. If Jacksonville wins and Buffalo loses, they're not

671
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 2: in the playoffs. But if Buffalo just wins, they win

672
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 2: the division. Miami's already clinched the wild card and they

673
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 2: can win their first division title since yep, two thousand

674
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 2: and eight. All right, AFC South, well, top credit to

675
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:59,320
Speaker 2: the Texans they won today, Goodbye Colts, so the Jags

676
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:02,840
Speaker 2: now have to win. Jacksonville clinches the division with a

677
00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:07,759
Speaker 2: win over the Titans, and the Texans, well, they are

678
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,680
Speaker 2: in a wild card. They've got a playoff spot. But

679
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 2: if the Jags lose, the Texans could actually win that division.

680
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,480
Speaker 2: Amazing what Demico Ryans has done.

681
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:18,279
Speaker 8: And C. J.

682
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 2: Stroud top credit. The Cowboys in the NFC East and

683
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:23,480
Speaker 2: the Eagles are both eleven and five. They're both in

684
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,240
Speaker 2: the playoffs no matter what. But Dallas clinches the division

685
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,719
Speaker 2: with a win over the Commandos. Philly clinches with a

686
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 2: victory at New York New York Giants. As long as

687
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 2: the Cowboys lose. The NFC South give it up to

688
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:40,439
Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield and company. The Bucks are eight and eight,

689
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,680
Speaker 2: the Saints are eight and eight, and yes, even the

690
00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 2: Falcons and seven to nine are still alive. Tampa they

691
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:51,360
Speaker 2: hold all the cards. That would be their third straight

692
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:55,640
Speaker 2: divisional title. Imagine that Baker Mayfield stepping in the shoes

693
00:36:55,640 --> 00:37:00,960
Speaker 2: of Tom Brady. Tampa clinches the division with a win

694
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:05,080
Speaker 2: over the Panthers. That's it. But it's never easy in

695
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,360
Speaker 2: the National Football League. Trust me, Tampa is a team

696
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:12,880
Speaker 2: that needs to win the clinch the division. The Carolina

697
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 2: Panthers have been eliminated since Moby Dick was a mindo.

698
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 2: But since nineteen ninety teams that are completely eliminated that

699
00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:25,239
Speaker 2: face teams who must win to get into the playoffs.

700
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:28,920
Speaker 2: The teams that are eliminated, they cover sixty one percent

701
00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 2: of the time. Still pretty hard to make a KAO.

702
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,880
Speaker 2: It's just not a game I'm going to be involved in.

703
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:37,320
Speaker 2: But it doesn't end there. Tampa clinch is the division

704
00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:40,640
Speaker 2: with the win over the Panthers. Sure, but the New

705
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 2: York the Saints Atlanta Falcons winner, well, they have to

706
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:47,880
Speaker 2: win and then they have to hope the Bucks lose

707
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:52,279
Speaker 2: in order for them to clinch the division. The Steelers,

708
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:56,879
Speaker 2: they were nine and seven heading into today. They're now

709
00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:02,839
Speaker 2: ten and seven and they need help to win. But

710
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 2: but quite an effort. Okay, see, well here's the situation.

711
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 2: It's kind of a musical chairs deal. The Jags, the Steelers,

712
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,920
Speaker 2: the Bills, the Colts, and the Texans were also today

713
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 2: in the fight for the final two wildcard spots. Well,

714
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 2: the Colts have been eliminated. If the Bills win, they're in.

715
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:24,759
Speaker 2: The Texans won, they're in. So if the Jags win

716
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:30,440
Speaker 2: and the Bills win, the Steelers good effort today, give

717
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:33,879
Speaker 2: them top credit once again for the what eighteenth straight year.

718
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin has an above five hundred record. But the

719
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:40,200
Speaker 2: Steelers will be doing a lot of scoreboard watching on Sunday.

720
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:43,200
Speaker 2: They did everything they could at this point, but it's

721
00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:47,759
Speaker 2: out of their hands. Finally, in the NFC Wildcard, the

722
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 2: Packers eight and eight. They can claim the final spot

723
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 2: in the Wildcard if you beat the Bears, but the

724
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 2: loss opens up the door for the Seahawks, who are

725
00:38:57,120 --> 00:39:02,000
Speaker 2: at Arizona. And you heard Steve Fezick. Seahawks have to

726
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 2: face Arizona at Arizona with a dangerous Kyler Murray Arizona

727
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:10,719
Speaker 2: catching two and a half. Fez likes Arizona as his

728
00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:13,319
Speaker 2: play of the day. I think he may be right.

729
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 2: I don't like the seahawks chances Sunday, but the Packers

730
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,319
Speaker 2: still have to you know, they still have to win

731
00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 2: to claim the final spot. The Vikings, they're seven and nine,

732
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:26,280
Speaker 2: they're still not dead. The Bucks, the Saints, they're still alive.

733
00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:30,440
Speaker 2: Atlanta can only make the playoffs as a division winner,

734
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,440
Speaker 2: but they need everybody else to lose. And again, we're

735
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:35,799
Speaker 2: going to revisit some of this later in the night

736
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 2: because it does get very very convoluted, interesting week in

737
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:48,440
Speaker 2: the NBA for both LA teams and fairly dramatic in

738
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:50,279
Speaker 2: my view. And then all of a sudden, right out

739
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:53,160
Speaker 2: of left field, there could be a Draymond Green siding

740
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:55,319
Speaker 2: near you in the next week or so. We'll talk

741
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,640
Speaker 2: about it coming up with Mark Medina. Keep it locked.

742

Speaker 2: We're listening to the Bernie Frattle Show. Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 2: We are now past Christmas Day. Yes, it's always a

Speaker 2: going concern. And that's why every Saturday night at midnight Pacific,

754
00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:43,560
Speaker 2: all I can say is this, it's that time. Medina Magic,

00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:48,680
Speaker 2: our Fox Sports Radio NBA grew very much has his

756
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:52,440
Speaker 2: finger on the pulse of the NBA. Here we are, Mark,

757
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 2: we are what seven days into the new year, and

758
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 2: we've got enough to fill volumes. How are you tonight?

759
00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 10: I am doing well. We're twenty twenty four and the

760
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,280
Speaker 10: Lakers have yet to win a game this year.

761
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:08,040
Speaker 2: There's a lead. We're going to get to the Draymond

762
00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 2: stuff in a minute, which was reported about nine hours ago.

763
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,440
Speaker 2: But Mark, we've got to do a little research. I've

764
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 2: got my crack research team on this, speaking of the Lakers.

765
00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 2: In the history of the NBA, has there ever been

766
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 2: an NBA Cup champion of not making the playoffs?

767
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 10: Either way, the records are going to be set this

768
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:31,520
Speaker 10: season in the history books. You know, we can make

769
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 10: the Paceesis joke that, you know, the Lakers are nursing

770
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:38,600
Speaker 10: the championship hangover. They're getting everyone's best shot, you know,

771
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,759
Speaker 10: after winning the title. But here's the reality. I think

772
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:45,680
Speaker 10: initially there was you know, the schedule crunch and the

773
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 10: fatigue of coming off some of those games. But I

774
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,719
Speaker 10: think what it's really showed is that the Lakers, for

775
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:53,920
Speaker 10: the most part, just been a bad team this season.

776
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:57,960
Speaker 10: And for all the continuity that the Lakers have prioritized

777
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:01,880
Speaker 10: since last season when they the Western Conference, they just

778
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,560
Speaker 10: haven't gotten the same kind of returns that they expected.

779
00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,560
Speaker 10: Now part of its injuries, but part of its performance,

780
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 10: and then part of it's just you know, Darvin Haam's

781
00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:14,239
Speaker 10: rotations and not finding the right combination after I think

782
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:15,920
Speaker 10: ten tries so far this season.

783
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:18,920
Speaker 2: I don't want to overreact, but in all seriousness, I

784
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:21,319
Speaker 2: do feel like there's a little trouble in Paradise. Mark

785
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 2: came to a head this week. They lose to Miami

786
00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:26,799
Speaker 2: Wednesday night without Jimmy Butler. They did not look good

787
00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:30,719
Speaker 2: and they get hammered by Memphis by fourteen. And then

788
00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:34,080
Speaker 2: of course you reacted to the piece and find journalistic

789
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:37,719
Speaker 2: fashion the group think Echo Chamber talking about how potentially

790
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 2: there are whispers about Darvin ham hell La heard Lebron

791
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:43,520
Speaker 2: so pissed off he wants erreh Spolster fired again, But

792
00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:46,279
Speaker 2: that's a story for a different day. In all seriousness, Mark,

793
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,760
Speaker 2: except the record straight. What is the status of Darvin

794
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:51,880
Speaker 2: Ham in light of the fact he's tried ten different

795
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:54,920
Speaker 2: lineups and apparently the locker room's not liking that.

796
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:59,960
Speaker 10: Yeah, right now, Darvin Ham has management support from the Lakers.

797
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 10: You know, it's early in the season. There's a lot

798
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:06,360
Speaker 10: of games left to play. They're mindful of the injuries,

799
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:08,680
Speaker 10: They're mindful of the fact that he's a second year

800
00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:10,960
Speaker 10: head coach, mindful of the fact that he got to

801
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,640
Speaker 10: the Western Conference finals last season, and mindful of the

802
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:16,560
Speaker 10: fact that when they had a tow and start ten

803
00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 10: start last season. You know, at that point they reiterated

804
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:22,520
Speaker 10: their support for Darvin. And they're also mindful of the

805
00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:25,600
Speaker 10: fact that February fifth will be the trade deadline, so

806
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,760
Speaker 10: maybe they can upgrade the roster. But with all those

807
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:32,560
Speaker 10: things in mind, I mean, Bernie, it's professional sports, it's

808
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:36,160
Speaker 10: the NBA. These things are always fluid, So I think

809
00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:38,720
Speaker 10: that we have to keep in mind that. I remember

810
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:42,319
Speaker 10: the twenty one twenty two season when the Lakers were

811
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:44,840
Speaker 10: getting off to a rough start, barely above and below

812
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,960
Speaker 10: five hundred for a while under Frank Vogel. You know,

813
00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 10: I asked Genie Boss at the time, I think in

814
00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:54,560
Speaker 10: December of twenty twenty one, about how the organization felt

815
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:57,560
Speaker 10: about Frank Vogel, and she said, at the time, you know,

816
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:01,920
Speaker 10: you can't really evaluate anything because there's been so many injuries.

817
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:04,520
Speaker 10: You fast forward to the end of the season, they

818
00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:07,400
Speaker 10: wind up playing them go. So what this all means.

819
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:10,080
Speaker 10: It means as of now, Darvin Ham's not going anywhere.

820
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 10: Who's going to be the Lakers head coach? But this

821
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,279
Speaker 10: is a resultory ented league, and so you know, from

822
00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:18,680
Speaker 10: now to the regular season, it's about winning games and

823
00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:20,840
Speaker 10: solving problems and gutting healthier.

824
00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:25,319
Speaker 2: Mark, I'm glad you referenced the February fifth deadline last year.

825
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:28,760
Speaker 2: At this time, I Rob Polink in the front office

826
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:31,600
Speaker 2: did I thought a masterful job of picking up some

827
00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 2: pieces parts which really contributed to the Lakers getting to

828
00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:37,160
Speaker 2: the Conference finals. Remember they started off two and ten

829
00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:39,520
Speaker 2: last year. So your points taken that we've got a

830
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:42,080
Speaker 2: long way to go and things are fluid. Can they

831
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 2: pull the rabbit out of their hat again this year?

832
00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:46,040
Speaker 2: Because what concerns me a little bit about the Lakers

833
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:49,000
Speaker 2: if you're a Laker fan, is both Anthony Davis and

834
00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:51,600
Speaker 2: Lebron have performed well and they've burnt up a lot

835
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 2: of minutes. And how's that gonna how's that mileage going

836
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:57,560
Speaker 2: to affect these these men as you get into April.

837
00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:01,920
Speaker 10: Yeah, And Darvin Ham expressed that because when we're looking

838
00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:04,560
Speaker 10: at this Lakers record really has nothing to do with

839
00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:08,680
Speaker 10: Lebron James Anthony Davis. They've mostly been available, They've mostly played,

840
00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:11,560
Speaker 10: you know, up to their standards, night in and night out.

841
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:14,920
Speaker 10: And you would think if those two things were checked

842
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,719
Speaker 10: off the list on a game to game basis, they

843
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:20,880
Speaker 10: would be up much higher in the Western Conference standings.

844
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:23,800
Speaker 10: And so because of that, I think there's concern about

845
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:27,120
Speaker 10: how long can this sustain with those two players because

846
00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:31,240
Speaker 10: Lebron just turned thirty nine in twenty first season. Anthony Davis,

847
00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:34,120
Speaker 10: even though he hasn't had a major injury since that

848
00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:37,880
Speaker 10: right foot injury last December, he has his own injury

849
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:41,239
Speaker 10: history for his entire career that you always have to

850
00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:44,200
Speaker 10: give pause to. And so with that, can the Lakers

851
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 10: pull rabbit out of the hat? I think that there

852
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:49,360
Speaker 10: is a lane for you know, guys like Ruey Atchamore

853
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:52,880
Speaker 10: and D'Angel Russell to get healthy collectively. It's not like

854
00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:56,520
Speaker 10: the same story two years ago where they're having injuries

855
00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:59,440
Speaker 10: because this year's roster, most of the guys are in

856
00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:02,600
Speaker 10: their prime and so with exception to gave Vincent who

857
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,000
Speaker 10: just had knee surgery, I don't think any of these

858
00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:09,399
Speaker 10: injuries are considered really serious. But can they make moves

859
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:12,320
Speaker 10: in the trade deadline? That's the thing that really the

860
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 10: Lakers really have to figure out what they're going to

861
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 10: prioritize philosophically, because historically it's always been about getting a

862
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,880
Speaker 10: star player, because that's what the Lakers do. The last season,

863
00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,839
Speaker 10: because of the Russell, Westbrooks Pheromount out working, they said,

864
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:29,880
Speaker 10: let's have roster depth, and so with this crossroads here,

865
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:34,160
Speaker 10: they have theoretical roster depth, but it hasn't been good enough.

866
00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:37,320
Speaker 10: So do they go after a zach Lavine. My hunch

867
00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:39,319
Speaker 10: is that they'll still draw a line in the same

868
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:43,280
Speaker 10: that they'd rather have more role players than a third start,

869
00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:46,280
Speaker 10: But as we've seen this first court of the season,

870
00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:51,200
Speaker 10: that might not be enough. So yeah, really tough decisions

871
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:53,799
Speaker 10: that the Lakers front office have to figure out here.

872
00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:57,600
Speaker 2: Talking with Mark Medina, Medina, managing every Saturday Night midnight

873
00:46:57,640 --> 00:47:01,200
Speaker 2: on the Bernie Frattle Show. The story are endless in

874
00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:03,960
Speaker 2: the NBA. Mark brings them to us, Mark, let's look

875
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:08,120
Speaker 2: across town. I'm scratching my head wondering have the Clippers

876
00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:10,960
Speaker 2: maybe figured this out? Obviously they had a rocky start,

877
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:14,800
Speaker 2: but something happened on November seventeenth, where I believe the

878
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,879
Speaker 2: Clippers have gone nineteen five since them, they flew under

879
00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:23,160
Speaker 2: the radar. Tyrone Leu made a starting lineup change. He

880
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:27,080
Speaker 2: took out Russell Westbrook and changed it with Terrence Mann.

881
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:30,279
Speaker 2: And I've always thought Man was very athletic and a

882
00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:34,239
Speaker 2: very good defender. And the Clippers have responded since. And

883
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:36,960
Speaker 2: I don't mean to be too simplistic, but truly the

884
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:40,200
Speaker 2: Clippers look good with their big three. Can this piece sustained?

885
00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:42,520
Speaker 2: Can they finally exceed expectations?

886
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:44,759
Speaker 10: Well, I think we're always going to have a way

887
00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:47,319
Speaker 10: and see approach because of the injury history. But I

888
00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:50,360
Speaker 10: think from a chemistry standpoint, they show that they're the

889
00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:53,560
Speaker 10: real deal. And to simplify what you alluded to, what

890
00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:56,480
Speaker 10: have been the changes. Yes, Russell Westbrook's off the bench,

891
00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:59,840
Speaker 10: James Harden's the primary playmaker. They're telling them to be

892
00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:03,040
Speaker 10: aggressive and look for his shop, but also be the

893
00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:07,640
Speaker 10: guy that gets Kawhi Leonard and Paul Georgezi looks Kawhi Leonard,

894
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:11,200
Speaker 10: his efficiency has gone up even more because he is

895
00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:13,680
Speaker 10: gaining easier looks. They're playing at a faster pace, They're

896
00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:16,560
Speaker 10: not just going through the motions here, and so because

897
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,880
Speaker 10: of that, I think that they've dispelled some of the

898
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:22,960
Speaker 10: earlier concerns about there's only one there's only one basketball

899
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:25,880
Speaker 10: and four players that are most comfortable with playing with

900
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:29,920
Speaker 10: the ball in their hands. With Staggering Russ, that addresses

901
00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:32,480
Speaker 10: some of those concerns. With Hal Russ and hard and

902
00:48:32,560 --> 00:48:34,920
Speaker 10: share a backcourt. But I think the other thing is

903
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:38,759
Speaker 10: I think Hardin's done a great job of doing what

904
00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:43,520
Speaker 10: he does best with creating for himself but also creating

905
00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:46,080
Speaker 10: for others, and that has had a trickle down effect

906
00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:48,480
Speaker 10: with the rest of the team with.

907
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:52,280
Speaker 2: Mark Medina Medina Magic are Fox Sports Radio, NBA Gurgu

908
00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:54,879
Speaker 2: All right, let's flip to the headline that appeared about

909
00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:59,320
Speaker 2: nine hours ago after twelve games in which the Warriors

910
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:03,560
Speaker 2: actually went and five two million dollars in lost salary.

911
00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:07,520
Speaker 2: Later Draymond Green will likely be back in the building Sunday.

912
00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:09,560
Speaker 2: I don't expect him to play in a game for

913
00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:12,399
Speaker 2: a few days. What was your knee jerk reaction when

914
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:14,400
Speaker 2: you heard this coming out of left field so quickly?

915
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:19,040
Speaker 10: Well, I want to say it so quickly. You know,

916
00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:22,880
Speaker 10: he did get suspended for twelve games. When you're looking

917
00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:27,760
Speaker 10: at you know, different circumstances. But Metalworld Peace gave James

918
00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:32,160
Speaker 10: Harden a concussion in the twenty eleven twelve season when

919
00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:34,560
Speaker 10: he elbowed him, he got ten games, So I think,

920
00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:37,880
Speaker 10: you know, when you're looking at precedent, this seems fairly

921
00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:40,920
Speaker 10: in line with past punishments, even when you account for

922
00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:44,640
Speaker 10: you know, Draymond's track record and certainly what's happened in

923
00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:47,520
Speaker 10: the last month with you know, the Rudy Gobert choke

924
00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:50,000
Speaker 10: cold and then you know him winding up and hitting

925
00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:55,000
Speaker 10: use of Nurkic, So I think you have to keep

926
00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:56,880
Speaker 10: that in mind. You also have to keep in mind

927
00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,640
Speaker 10: that you know, he was in touch with the league office,

928
00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:04,719
Speaker 10: the player union, the Warriors. They haven't specified exact details

929
00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:07,920
Speaker 10: of what he's done for you know, privacy reasons, but

930
00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:11,480
Speaker 10: it's very much established from the league that he had to,

931
00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:15,719
Speaker 10: you know, have different types of conversations to make sure

932
00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:18,600
Speaker 10: that there's a comfort level that he's addressed some of

933
00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:24,000
Speaker 10: his anger concerns and his emotion concerns. And then as

934
00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:27,000
Speaker 10: far as him coming back, there's not a specific timetable.

935
00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:29,840
Speaker 10: It's going to be more than twelve games because he

936
00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:33,040
Speaker 10: has to get his win back. Even though he you know,

937
00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:36,400
Speaker 10: was technically able to practice with the team, I was

938
00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:39,239
Speaker 10: told he's mostly been doing individual workouts just you know,

939
00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:44,320
Speaker 10: give each other space. So right now it's about integrating

940
00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:47,600
Speaker 10: himself into team practice get his win back. So even

941
00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:51,480
Speaker 10: though there's no official timetable, you know, expect somewhere between

942
00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:54,160
Speaker 10: next ten days or two weeks before he comes back.

943
00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:57,520
Speaker 2: I think he gave the link to the suspension some context,

944
00:50:58,239 --> 00:51:02,400
Speaker 2: but for me, it's not just the Nurkic situation. Gobert.

945
00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:05,719
Speaker 2: Remember you had demonished the bonus back in April. The

946
00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:09,440
Speaker 2: month before that he recorded his sixteenth technical. Then, of course,

947
00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:12,840
Speaker 2: back with Kevin Durant five years ago, conduct detrimental to

948
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:15,080
Speaker 2: the team, and I still will go to my grave

949
00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:19,120
Speaker 2: saying that he cost the Warriors the championship in twenty sixteen,

950
00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:21,959
Speaker 2: after hunting for Lebron's another region. So we're talking about

951
00:51:22,120 --> 00:51:25,560
Speaker 2: seven situations here, and I got to tell you, I'm

952
00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:28,280
Speaker 2: just going to be bold. I have no faith that

953
00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:31,160
Speaker 2: he'll keep his shorts clean the rest of his career

954
00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:33,640
Speaker 2: because he's basically said, I'm not going to change. That

955
00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:36,120
Speaker 2: says who I am. I think in his heart he

956
00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:39,319
Speaker 2: feels justified for everything he's done. You got the last

957
00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:40,600
Speaker 2: word on Draymond.

958
00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:45,240
Speaker 10: Yeah, Look, the skepticism is fair because of what we've seen.

959
00:51:46,719 --> 00:51:49,600
Speaker 10: I am not naive into thinking that Draymond's never going

960
00:51:49,640 --> 00:51:51,880
Speaker 10: to get a technical or not going to get ejected

961
00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:54,719
Speaker 10: or suspended for the rest of his career. But I

962
00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:58,520
Speaker 10: do think that he is very well aware that it's

963
00:51:58,520 --> 00:52:01,640
Speaker 10: not like it might be strong to say this is

964
00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 10: his last chance, but he's gained toward the end of

965
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:07,920
Speaker 10: the rope where the league is clearly losing patience with him,

966
00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:12,600
Speaker 10: hence why they've increased the length of suspensions this past season.

967
00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:16,880
Speaker 10: But I think what will least see is this past

968
00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:19,960
Speaker 10: season where I thought it was troubling what Draymond was

969
00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:23,640
Speaker 10: doing this last month was for all to talk about, Hey,

970
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:26,840
Speaker 10: you know, Draymond's this fiery guy and he has this

971
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:30,800
Speaker 10: history of getting technicals. I thought this went beyond Draymond

972
00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:35,320
Speaker 10: being Draymond right, and so I think, if nothing else,

973
00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:39,120
Speaker 10: I think Draymond's smart enough and aware enough because of

974
00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:41,960
Speaker 10: what happened that he's going to do enough to make

975
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:44,600
Speaker 10: sure that he's still available for the team. And look,

976
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:46,880
Speaker 10: I don't think that's asking much like, at the end

977
00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:49,960
Speaker 10: of the day, just don't punch a dude, you know,

978
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:53,840
Speaker 10: any game, right, don't put someone in a chokehold. You know,

979
00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:56,520
Speaker 10: there could be a broader discussion and maybe a little

980
00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:58,880
Speaker 10: bit more of a gray area about the officials and

981
00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:02,840
Speaker 10: those things, But when it comes to his two recent suspensions,

982
00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:06,160
Speaker 10: I don't think it should be asking him much not

983
00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:09,600
Speaker 10: to duplicate that, and I think because of that, he'll

984
00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:11,480
Speaker 10: be able to avoid that at least.

985
00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:15,080
Speaker 2: Final thought for me, Mark, because I'm glad you mentioned

986
00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:19,319
Speaker 2: the February fifth trade deadline. I'm kind of following the

987
00:53:19,400 --> 00:53:23,480
Speaker 2: Sacramento Kings in stretches. I mean, they're twenty one to thirteen,

988
00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:25,760
Speaker 2: but in stretches this year they don't likely to beat anybody,

989
00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:29,680
Speaker 2: and you feel like they were gonna go big name hunting.

990
00:53:29,719 --> 00:53:32,040
Speaker 2: But I guess he just pulled out of the Pascal

991
00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:35,160
Speaker 2: Siakam sweet steaks, if you want to call it that,

992
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:39,359
Speaker 2: And what are your thoughts on who Sacramento might try

993
00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:42,840
Speaker 2: to go after to get that one more stalwart so

994
00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:44,040
Speaker 2: they can make a playoff run.

995
00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:48,000
Speaker 10: Yeah, that's interesting thing, Bernie, because when I've talked to

996
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:50,600
Speaker 10: people with the Kings, they very much have counted the

997
00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:54,439
Speaker 10: importance of continuity and just knowing, you know, the core

998
00:53:54,680 --> 00:53:58,040
Speaker 10: that they have with you know, Jaron Fox and demantes

999
00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:01,920
Speaker 10: Sebonas and Kegan Murray, these are all young players, and

1000
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:06,440
Speaker 10: so they viewed their core as you know, not equivalent

1001
00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:09,640
Speaker 10: right now to what the Denver Nuggets have done because

1002
00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:12,400
Speaker 10: they're more talented and they've just come off a championship.

1003
00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:15,440
Speaker 10: But they feel like that is the best lane for

1004
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:19,279
Speaker 10: them to navigate through. And so I don't I would

1005
00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:22,279
Speaker 10: be surprised if they make some major deal. You know,

1006
00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:25,440
Speaker 10: maybe there's something on the margins, but I think that

1007
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:29,120
Speaker 10: they're going to lean into let's improve from within, let's

1008
00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:32,400
Speaker 10: ride the continuity train. That being said, you know, I

1009
00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:35,480
Speaker 10: know talking to Mike Brown, you know, over the season

1010
00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:39,400
Speaker 10: and certainly people on the team, there's a lot of

1011
00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:44,799
Speaker 10: frustration that they haven't become consistent defensively. You know, they're

1012
00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:47,359
Speaker 10: a great offensive team. But you know, talking to Mike

1013
00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:49,680
Speaker 10: even before the season started, he said, if we want

1014
00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:52,160
Speaker 10: to get you know, built off of this seven game

1015
00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:55,279
Speaker 10: series that we lost against the Warriors, we have to

1016
00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:57,960
Speaker 10: be a lot more physical. We have to know how

1017
00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:01,239
Speaker 10: to defend without fouling a lot better, and we have

1018
00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:03,920
Speaker 10: to own the rebounding battle. Like I think, what's interesting

1019
00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:08,719
Speaker 10: with that seven game series against the Warriors. I mean, rightfully,

1020
00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:10,719
Speaker 10: so Steph Curry is going to get a lot of

1021
00:55:10,719 --> 00:55:14,879
Speaker 10: attention about his amazing Game seven performance, but the King

1022
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:18,839
Speaker 10: is internally, including Mike Brown, thinks that you know, if

1023
00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:21,960
Speaker 10: they improved on the rebounding then it did not allow

1024
00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:25,200
Speaker 10: Kevon Looney to just dominate on the boards, they would

1025
00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:28,799
Speaker 10: have won that series. And so with that, even though there,

1026
00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:30,759
Speaker 10: I think that they're going to continue to lean in

1027
00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:34,600
Speaker 10: the continuity train. They do have issues that they're hoping

1028
00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:37,759
Speaker 10: to resolve, but they think it's more realistic to do

1029
00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:39,800
Speaker 10: that with what they have as opposed to making a

1030
00:55:39,840 --> 00:55:43,320
Speaker 10: major deal that can disrupt that coninuity.

1031
00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:45,840
Speaker 2: Good stuff. As always, Mark no doubt that when we

1032
00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:48,719
Speaker 2: talk next Saturday Night, there'll be storylines that we can't

1033
00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:51,320
Speaker 2: even think of right now, but just simply have a

1034
00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:53,160
Speaker 2: way of popping up. Enjoy the rest of your week in.

1035
00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:56,879
Speaker 10: Mark likewise, and that's why everyone should stay tuned every

1036
00:55:56,880 --> 00:55:57,960
Speaker 10: week on Saturday.

1037
00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:01,200
Speaker 2: That's right. If you don't your first line for Front

1038
00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:03,960
Speaker 2: of the bottomy, that's all I can about. Joy your

1039
00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:07,520
Speaker 2: week ahead. Mark, we'll talk. That is Mark Medeena Medina

1040
00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:12,200
Speaker 2: Magic are Fox Sports Radio NBA guru, and as you

1041
00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:15,160
Speaker 2: can clearly see, he very much has his figure on

1042
00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:16,800
Speaker 2: the pulse. And I'm glad he brought up the trade

1043
00:56:16,800 --> 00:56:19,760
Speaker 2: deadline because this particular year, especially if you Laker fans,

1044
00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:25,000
Speaker 2: it may have special significance again as it did last season.

1045
00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:27,879
Speaker 2: Want to remind you football fans, be sure to tune

1046
00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:31,399
Speaker 2: into Fox Sports Radio every Sunday morning beginning at ten

1053
00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:57,239
Speaker 2: As I promised earlier, give the Philadelphia Eagles a bit

1054
00:56:57,320 --> 00:57:00,839
Speaker 2: of a pass. How do Super Bowl teams who were

1055
00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:04,680
Speaker 2: runner ups fair the following season? Will take you back

1056
00:57:04,680 --> 00:57:07,960
Speaker 2: in history. Maybe you'll give the Eagles just a bit

1057
00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:10,560
Speaker 2: of a break. But I want to give the Clippers

1058
00:57:10,560 --> 00:57:13,319
Speaker 2: their flowers just a little bit. I'm always rooting for

1059
00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:16,280
Speaker 2: my buddy Ben Maller that one time, just give the

1060
00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:18,680
Speaker 2: Clippers They're day in the sun, you know, like the

1061
00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:23,480
Speaker 2: Cleveland Browns, the Detroit Lions, you get the picture. One time,

1062
00:57:23,560 --> 00:57:25,919
Speaker 2: could the sports guys, well, Clippers might have figured it out.

1063
00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:30,000
Speaker 2: I want to talk about why I think this year

1064
00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:33,200
Speaker 2: they've got their best chance of actually making some real

1065
00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:36,600
Speaker 2: noise in the playoffs. And Bernie fraddle Were comes to

1076
00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:08,040
Speaker 2: always rooting for my guy Ben mallor one year, just

1077
00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:10,280
Speaker 2: let the Clippers break through. I don't know if this

1078
00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:12,120
Speaker 2: is the year, but I'll tell you they might have

1079
00:58:12,160 --> 00:58:15,040
Speaker 2: figured it out. They're halfway through the NBA season almost,

1080
00:58:15,640 --> 00:58:17,920
Speaker 2: and you got the two Los Angeles teams going in

1081
00:58:17,960 --> 00:58:21,280
Speaker 2: polar opposites. We know the Clippers got off to a

1082
00:58:21,400 --> 00:58:25,400
Speaker 2: rocky start James Harden. His first few weeks, they weren't gelling.

1083
00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:29,080
Speaker 2: But since November seventeenth, the Clippers are nineteen and five

1084
00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:33,080
Speaker 2: and the Lakers have been so doubling. You saw the

1085
00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:36,480
Speaker 2: Clippers pick up a solid road win at Phoenix Wednesday

1086
00:58:36,560 --> 00:58:39,560
Speaker 2: night by nine, follow it up with a big win Friday,

1087
00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:44,760
Speaker 2: and their top three players have been dominant. Paul George

1088
00:58:44,760 --> 00:58:47,560
Speaker 2: had thirty three points, Kawhi Leonard thirty, James Hard twenty

1089
00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:50,800
Speaker 2: two to eleven assists, all of a sudden, Kawhi Leonard

1090
00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:54,720
Speaker 2: very much excelling, averaging thirty three points a game, shooting

1091
00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:58,280
Speaker 2: sixty four percentage in his last seven games after averaging

1092
00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:02,440
Speaker 2: what twenty two in his first twenty games. The biggest

1093
00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:07,200
Speaker 2: difference that we talked about this with Mark Medino. Here's

1094
00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:09,760
Speaker 2: the situation ty Lou, who I think is a very

1095
00:59:09,800 --> 00:59:12,680
Speaker 2: good coach and he has a championship under his belt

1096
00:59:12,680 --> 00:59:17,040
Speaker 2: with the Cleveland Cavaliers back in twenty sixteen. He made

1097
00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:21,760
Speaker 2: a lineup change right after the Hardened trade. It was

1098
00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:24,640
Speaker 2: actually it was actually November seventeenth. The team was in

1099
00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:28,560
Speaker 2: a six game losing street until Rue tron Lou replaced

1100
00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:33,520
Speaker 2: Russell Westbrook in the starting lineup with Terrence Mann. Man

1101
00:59:33,560 --> 00:59:37,040
Speaker 2: has been in the league about five years, somewhat undistinguished.

1102
00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:40,320
Speaker 2: He's a swing man out of Florida State. Extremely athletic.

1103
00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:44,280
Speaker 2: He'd been named a starter before the season, but as

1104
00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:46,480
Speaker 2: luck would have it, he sprained his ankle in practice

1105
00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:49,400
Speaker 2: two days before the opener missed the first six games.

1106
00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:53,360
Speaker 2: While he was out, the Clippers acquired James Harden from

1107
00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:55,680
Speaker 2: the Sixers. You see where the puzzle comes together here.

1108
00:59:56,040 --> 00:59:59,160
Speaker 2: He took man spot the starting lineup. Man was coming

1109
00:59:59,160 --> 01:00:01,240
Speaker 2: off the bench in the four games of the season

1110
01:00:01,560 --> 01:00:04,680
Speaker 2: before Tyron Lu made the decision to shake up the lineup.

1111
01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:10,000
Speaker 2: He's given the Clippers exactly what they need. He's he's

1112
01:00:10,080 --> 01:00:12,440
Speaker 2: not counted on to be a score because they have

1113
01:00:12,480 --> 01:00:16,120
Speaker 2: a high scoring trio. But Man is young, he is athletic,

1114
01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:20,640
Speaker 2: He's an excellent defender. He's had instant impact on the team.

1115
01:00:20,680 --> 01:00:23,840
Speaker 2: It's obviously evident. And when you look at their starting

1116
01:00:23,840 --> 01:00:27,600
Speaker 2: lineup of James Harden, Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, Terrence Men

1117
01:00:27,800 --> 01:00:32,600
Speaker 2: and Evakea Zubac, well, they're averaging seventeen point three points

1118
01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:35,680
Speaker 2: more than their opponents per one hundred possessions. This season,

1119
01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:41,320
Speaker 2: that combo of Harden, Leonard, George, Zubach and Westbrook that

1120
01:00:41,440 --> 01:00:45,760
Speaker 2: Man replaced was averaging twenty one point eight points fewer

1121
01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:49,400
Speaker 2: than their opponent per one hundred possessions. So the Lakers,

1122
01:00:50,200 --> 01:00:52,480
Speaker 2: they're in desperate need of a spark. The Clippers they

1123
01:00:52,520 --> 01:00:54,640
Speaker 2: need to keep it going. Are they going to be

1124
01:00:54,640 --> 01:00:57,520
Speaker 2: a victim of their history? I don't know. They're lost

1125
01:00:57,560 --> 01:01:02,080
Speaker 2: to the Miami Heat Wednesday night. Wasn't good. It was

1126
01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:04,360
Speaker 2: their eight defeat and ten games. Miami didn't even have

1127
01:01:04,520 --> 01:01:08,000
Speaker 2: Jimmy Butler. The Lakers come home after a lengthy road

1128
01:01:08,040 --> 01:01:10,000
Speaker 2: trip and they lose their first two home games. They

1129
01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:14,080
Speaker 2: lose to a game Memphis Grizzlies team Friday night. Now

1130
01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:16,280
Speaker 2: there's some head scratching. Mark Madeen has written a very

1131
01:01:16,280 --> 01:01:19,440
Speaker 2: good column about where the Lakers go from here and

1132
01:01:19,560 --> 01:01:22,400
Speaker 2: what happens with Darvin Ham and perhaps people are overreacting,

1133
01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:25,000
Speaker 2: but you know how it works there, there's expectations and

1134
01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:30,440
Speaker 2: the truth of the matter is both lebron And and

1135
01:01:30,560 --> 01:01:35,479
Speaker 2: Anthony Davis have performed extremely well and the bottom line

1136
01:01:35,520 --> 01:01:37,000
Speaker 2: is they're burning up a lot of minutes and a

1137
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:40,320
Speaker 2: lot of energy and we'll see how that affects them

1138
01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:43,160
Speaker 2: in terms of mileage wise when April rolls around, and

1139
01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:47,920
Speaker 2: we'll see what they do during the playoff deadline. Check

1140
01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:51,160
Speaker 2: that not the playoff deadline, the trade deadline on February fifth.

1141
01:01:51,640 --> 01:01:54,120
Speaker 2: All right, coming up, I want to take a look

1142
01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:55,800
Speaker 2: a little bit of history. I know people have been

1143
01:01:55,800 --> 01:01:58,520
Speaker 2: bashing the Eagles and they've they've fallen off a cliff

1144
01:01:58,560 --> 01:01:59,920
Speaker 2: a little bit. They're still gonna be in the play

1145
01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:01,800
Speaker 2: so you even have a chance to win the division?

1146
01:02:02,200 --> 01:02:05,560
Speaker 2: Someone slim, But could they simply be just falling in

1147
01:02:05,600 --> 01:02:09,240
Speaker 2: line without Every Super Bowl loser has s fared following

1148
01:02:09,280 --> 01:02:11,440
Speaker 2: the NFL season, well, maybe not every Super Bowl, but

1149
01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:13,920
Speaker 2: there's some interesting stature which I'll share with you. But

1150
01:02:13,960 --> 01:02:16,840
Speaker 2: first let's go back to our guy, the chef, Kevin

1151
01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:17,760
Speaker 2: Wyrett with the latest.

1152
01:02:18,400 --> 01:02:22,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, the Houston Texans punching their ticket into the postseason

1153
01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:25,680
Speaker 6: for the first time since twenty nineteen. On Saturday, they

1154
01:02:25,760 --> 01:02:28,440
Speaker 6: beat the Indianapolis Colts twenty three nineteen to clinch the

1155
01:02:28,480 --> 01:02:33,440
Speaker 6: playoff spot. After win just three games last year, Indianapolis

1156
01:02:33,480 --> 01:02:37,960
Speaker 6: officially eliminated from playoff contention. The Steelers stay alive for

1157
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:41,520
Speaker 6: the postseason by beating the Baltimore Ravens seventeen to ten,

1158
01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:44,160
Speaker 6: but it came at a cost, as DJ Watt suffered

1159
01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:48,400
Speaker 6: a great three MCL strain sprain. As more tests are

1160
01:02:48,440 --> 01:02:51,760
Speaker 6: coming tomorrow, but watts availability for a possible playoff opener

1161
01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:55,480
Speaker 6: is in doubt. And as for the Steelers playoff hopes,

1162
01:02:55,560 --> 01:02:58,440
Speaker 6: they do need a loss but either the Jaguars or

1163
01:02:58,480 --> 01:03:02,800
Speaker 6: the Bills on Sunday in order to make the postseason.

1164

Speaker 2: night to get at one thirty.

1187
01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:15,520
Speaker 6: Absolutely.

1188
01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:19,240
Speaker 2: By the way, it's an interesting night. You recall on

1189
01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:23,360
Speaker 2: the fly after last Saturday night we were able to

1190
01:04:23,440 --> 01:04:29,720
Speaker 2: corral Dan Leach from Detroit after that historic, weird game

1191
01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:34,640
Speaker 2: in Dallas. Appreciate Chay. We chased him down. Dan is

1192
01:04:34,640 --> 01:04:36,680
Speaker 2: going to join us. I gave him my word. One

1193
01:04:36,680 --> 01:04:38,680
Speaker 2: of my old cronies in Detroit. He's in Houston for

1194
01:04:38,760 --> 01:04:41,919
Speaker 2: the National Championship game. Dan is actually going to join

1195
01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:46,600
Speaker 2: us from Houston and we'll give us We'll get his

1196
01:04:46,640 --> 01:04:50,200
Speaker 2: thoughts on Michigan Washington at the top of the hour,

1197
01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:53,720
Speaker 2: and while we're at it, we'll talk a little Lions

1198
01:04:53,800 --> 01:04:57,760
Speaker 2: as well. Okay, the Eagles are trying to embark on

1199
01:04:57,840 --> 01:05:02,160
Speaker 2: their road to redemption as it were, which you wouldn't

1200
01:05:02,240 --> 01:05:04,720
Speaker 2: think they would need to do that because they're a

1201
01:05:04,720 --> 01:05:06,680
Speaker 2: good team. They still have a chance to win the

1202
01:05:06,720 --> 01:05:09,760
Speaker 2: division and they are going to be in the playoffs.

1203
01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:12,040
Speaker 2: As I mentioned earlier in the show, if the season

1204
01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:15,600
Speaker 2: ended today, they would be the number five seed. They

1205
01:05:15,640 --> 01:05:18,640
Speaker 2: would have to travel to Tampa Bay on the road

1206
01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:21,400
Speaker 2: as a wild card team. But it's not like the

1207
01:05:21,440 --> 01:05:24,720
Speaker 2: season went off a cliff. Statistically, they're not as good Defensively,

1208
01:05:25,200 --> 01:05:29,800
Speaker 2: their turnover rate isn't what it was in the past. Offensively,

1209
01:05:30,320 --> 01:05:32,200
Speaker 2: they haven't been as prolific. They don't run the ball

1210
01:05:32,240 --> 01:05:34,800
Speaker 2: as well, they don't stop the ball run and Jalen

1211
01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:37,720
Speaker 2: Hurts has turned the ball over more this year. And

1212
01:05:37,880 --> 01:05:40,800
Speaker 2: I think perhaps the Eagles are a little bit of

1213
01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:44,600
Speaker 2: a victim of their own success. They steamrolled their competition

1214
01:05:44,680 --> 01:05:47,560
Speaker 2: throughout twenty twenty two. They had the conference's number one seed.

1215
01:05:47,920 --> 01:05:51,320
Speaker 2: Then they crushed the Giants and the forty nine ers

1216
01:05:51,320 --> 01:05:54,000
Speaker 2: in the playoffs by a combined score sixty nine to fourteen.

1217
01:05:54,040 --> 01:05:56,959
Speaker 2: They got the Super Bowl fifty seven, and they got

1218
01:05:57,200 --> 01:05:59,960
Speaker 2: very close to beating Kansas City. They surrendered a lot

1219
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:02,560
Speaker 2: as minute field goal. The Chiefs beat them thirty eight

1220
01:06:02,600 --> 01:06:06,160
Speaker 2: to thirty five. Now there has a thing that has

1221
01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:08,600
Speaker 2: been called the Super Bowl jinks, which I don't know

1222
01:06:08,800 --> 01:06:11,960
Speaker 2: if that's a fair moniker. You don't really know if

1223
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:16,080
Speaker 2: it exists for a team that lost the Super Bowl

1224
01:06:16,120 --> 01:06:19,960
Speaker 2: the prior year. But when you sift through season results

1225
01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:24,120
Speaker 2: of every Super Bowl team, the finings, you know it's

1226
01:06:24,240 --> 01:06:28,320
Speaker 2: not automatic that there is going to be a hangover. Okay,

1227
01:06:29,040 --> 01:06:32,280
Speaker 2: there have been teams that went off a cliff after

1228
01:06:32,320 --> 01:06:37,880
Speaker 2: the Raiders were just hammered by the Buccaneers back in

1229
01:06:37,880 --> 01:06:41,320
Speaker 2: two thousand and three, they went four and twelve the

1230
01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:46,360
Speaker 2: following season, and so you know that can happen. On

1231
01:06:46,400 --> 01:06:49,320
Speaker 2: the other hand, there have been teams, you know, the

1232
01:06:49,440 --> 01:06:51,880
Speaker 2: seventy two Dolphins. The only team to have a perfect

1233
01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:56,400
Speaker 2: season following a Super Bowl loss, the Miami Dolphins. They

1234
01:06:56,400 --> 01:06:59,040
Speaker 2: went ten to three in nineteen seventy one the following

1235
01:06:59,080 --> 01:07:03,000
Speaker 2: season before they fell the Dallas Cowboys, And let's let's

1236
01:07:03,040 --> 01:07:06,400
Speaker 2: put it this way, that was rare because the seventy

1237
01:07:06,440 --> 01:07:09,040
Speaker 2: Cowboys and the twenty seven to Winland Patriots, they were

1238
01:07:09,040 --> 01:07:10,760
Speaker 2: the only other teams that lose the Super Bowl and

1239
01:07:10,840 --> 01:07:14,200
Speaker 2: bounce back to win it the following season, and the

1240
01:07:14,240 --> 01:07:17,400
Speaker 2: Patriots did that as recent as twenty eighteen. Five additional

1241
01:07:17,440 --> 01:07:21,040
Speaker 2: teams actually reached the Super Bowl in consecular seasons but

1242
01:07:21,200 --> 01:07:25,160
Speaker 2: lost both times. But if you look in recent years, okay,

1243
01:07:25,720 --> 01:07:27,880
Speaker 2: and by the way, I think in the fifty six years,

1244
01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:30,400
Speaker 2: thirty nine of the teams, so you really can't call

1245
01:07:30,440 --> 01:07:32,360
Speaker 2: it a Super Bowl jinks. Thirty nine of the teams

1246
01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:37,080
Speaker 2: have have made it back to the playoffs, but seventeen didn't,

1247
01:07:37,280 --> 01:07:39,600
Speaker 2: and a lot of those who did in eleven of

1248
01:07:39,640 --> 01:07:43,160
Speaker 2: those seventeen are just in the last twenty years, most

1249
01:07:43,200 --> 01:07:46,439
Speaker 2: recently the twenty nineteen San Francisco forty nine ers. They

1250
01:07:46,560 --> 01:07:49,840
Speaker 2: had the Chiefs beat, couldn't close them out. They ended

1251
01:07:49,920 --> 01:07:53,720
Speaker 2: up finishing six to ten the following season. That Rams

1252
01:07:53,840 --> 01:07:57,439
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame team back in twenty eighteen, they lost

1253
01:07:57,480 --> 01:08:00,320
Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl, but they missed the playoffs the

1254
01:08:00,360 --> 01:08:04,440
Speaker 2: following season. Meanwhile, the last two years before the Eagles

1255
01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:05,800
Speaker 2: and the Eagles are going to do it. This year,

1256
01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:09,200
Speaker 2: the Bengals and Chiefs both made the playoffs. But remember

1257
01:08:09,240 --> 01:08:12,600
Speaker 2: that great Carolina Panthers team led by Cam Newton. They

1258
01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:15,800
Speaker 2: ended up getting beat in the Super Bowl by Peyton Manning.

1259
01:08:16,240 --> 01:08:21,120
Speaker 2: They were six and ten the following season. And beyond

1260
01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:25,639
Speaker 2: that we are probably splitting hairs. That great New England

1261
01:08:25,640 --> 01:08:28,759
Speaker 2: twenty seven team had came off of a Super Bowl.

1262
01:08:28,960 --> 01:08:30,840
Speaker 2: They were eleven and five the following year. They missed

1263
01:08:30,840 --> 01:08:34,360
Speaker 2: the playoffs. That's here Tom Brady had knee surgery. The

1264
01:08:34,400 --> 01:08:37,080
Speaker 2: bottom line is this, there may or may not be

1265
01:08:37,240 --> 01:08:40,479
Speaker 2: such a thing as a Super Bowl jinx. But if

1266
01:08:40,520 --> 01:08:44,439
Speaker 2: you look at the Philadelphia Eagles season and their body

1267
01:08:44,439 --> 01:08:49,000
Speaker 2: at work for the year and not just recently. I

1268
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:50,479
Speaker 2: think you have to give them a lot of credit.

1269
01:08:50,720 --> 01:08:52,760
Speaker 2: They're not what they were last year, and maybe they're

1270
01:08:52,800 --> 01:08:55,240
Speaker 2: a victim of their own success. But I don't know

1271
01:08:55,320 --> 01:08:58,320
Speaker 2: that anybody should be writing them off just yet. The

1272
01:08:58,320 --> 01:09:01,760
Speaker 2: postseason tournament is a completely different animal, and I would

1273
01:09:01,800 --> 01:09:04,280
Speaker 2: tell you when they go to Tampa Bay, it looks

1274
01:09:04,280 --> 01:09:06,640
Speaker 2: like it's going to end that way. I assume Dallas

1275
01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:10,639
Speaker 2: beats the Commandos on Sunday, Well, they head to Tampa Bay,

1276
01:09:10,840 --> 01:09:13,559
Speaker 2: they'll give Tampa Bay everything they could bargain for in

1277
01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:17,120
Speaker 2: that playoff games. Dallas caught a break against Detroit last week.

1278
01:09:17,160 --> 01:09:19,120
Speaker 2: It looks like they'll host Green Bay as long as

1279
01:09:19,240 --> 01:09:21,439
Speaker 2: they win. Coming up, let's take a quick look a

1280
01:09:21,479 --> 01:09:25,840
Speaker 2: quick preview of this Washington Michigan game, which, if you

1281
01:09:25,880 --> 01:09:28,599
Speaker 2: want to get snarky, it's actually an All Big Ten final,

1282
01:09:28,640 --> 01:09:31,840
Speaker 2: if you get my drift. Now that it's twenty twenty four,

1283
01:09:32,840 --> 01:09:34,800
Speaker 2: I'm Bernie Fraddle. We're coming to you live from Las Vegas,

1284
01:09:34,840 --> 01:09:37,479
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio Studios. Keep it locked right here. You're

1285
01:09:37,479 --> 01:09:39,639
Speaker 2: listening to the Bernie Fraddle Show on Fox Sports Radio.

1286
01:09:40,560 --> 01:09:42,840
Speaker 2: All right back on the Bernie Fradle Show, Fox Sports Radio,

1287
01:09:42,880 --> 01:09:45,719
Speaker 2: coming to live from the tire Ac dot Com studios

1288
01:09:45,760 --> 01:09:49,200
Speaker 2: here in Las Vegas. Take heap to three am Pacific,

1289
01:09:49,720 --> 01:09:56,240
Speaker 2: six am Eastern. After Sunday's NFL slate, all attention will

1290
01:09:56,280 --> 01:09:58,720
Speaker 2: be turned to Monday night's game. The final year of

1291
01:09:58,760 --> 01:10:03,439
Speaker 2: the Made for TV Invitational tournament, but this year they

1292
01:10:03,479 --> 01:10:06,040
Speaker 2: really got it right. The semi final games were among

1293
01:10:06,080 --> 01:10:09,280
Speaker 2: the two best in the entire nine years. At Michigan

1294
01:10:09,640 --> 01:10:13,080
Speaker 2: versus Washington. They say styles make fights, and boy, you've

1295
01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:17,880
Speaker 2: got two distinctly different styles here. Some things you need

1296
01:10:17,920 --> 01:10:20,800
Speaker 2: to know the player to watch. The one player on

1297
01:10:20,800 --> 01:10:23,120
Speaker 2: the field for me to watch more than anybody else

1298
01:10:23,160 --> 01:10:27,800
Speaker 2: on both sides is Michael Pennix, Washington's superstar quarterback. I

1299
01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:30,759
Speaker 2: think he's the most important player in the game. He's

1300
01:10:31,120 --> 01:10:35,000
Speaker 2: his six year senior. He's twenty five and two two

1301
01:10:35,080 --> 01:10:39,320
Speaker 2: seasons as the Washington starter. He was good at Indiana,

1302
01:10:39,439 --> 01:10:42,360
Speaker 2: his face Michigan before, but he got hurt a lot there.

1303
01:10:43,360 --> 01:10:47,360
Speaker 2: Caitlin de Boor took him to Washington. The Huskies have

1304
01:10:47,479 --> 01:10:51,200
Speaker 2: been an underdog five times this year. They have won

1305
01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:54,240
Speaker 2: all five outright. They have played nine ranked teams the

1306
01:10:54,320 --> 01:10:58,400
Speaker 2: last two years. They are nine and oh. Pennix has

1307
01:10:58,680 --> 01:11:03,320
Speaker 2: surpassed six hundred yards passing each of his past two years,

1308
01:11:03,479 --> 01:11:07,639
Speaker 2: finished second in the Heinzman. He's incredibly accurate as a lefty.

1309
01:11:07,960 --> 01:11:11,559
Speaker 2: Turned in another gym absolute gem in the Super Bowl

1310
01:11:11,640 --> 01:11:15,360
Speaker 2: semi final, lighting up Texas through for over four hundred yards.

1311
01:11:15,680 --> 01:11:19,920
Speaker 2: And of course he's got the trio of NFL receivers Romadunze,

1312
01:11:20,160 --> 01:11:23,080
Speaker 2: who caught eighty seven balls this year in thirteen touchdowns,

1313
01:11:23,320 --> 01:11:25,479
Speaker 2: and of course Jill inn Polk, Jayalen McMillan as well.

1314
01:11:25,520 --> 01:11:29,040
Speaker 2: As they're tight in Jack Westover, I believe Michigan has

1315
01:11:29,080 --> 01:11:33,280
Speaker 2: a very hard time covering those guys. I do believe

1316
01:11:33,400 --> 01:11:36,400
Speaker 2: Washington is going to get their points, but give it

1317
01:11:36,439 --> 01:11:39,759
Speaker 2: up to Michigan's defense, which has proven to be nasty.

1318
01:11:40,640 --> 01:11:44,200
Speaker 2: They enter the game ranked number one nationally in yards

1319
01:11:44,240 --> 01:11:47,519
Speaker 2: allowed per game, only two forty three, and you could

1320
01:11:47,560 --> 01:11:52,280
Speaker 2: say they had a not difficult schedule, but they're hammering everybody.

1321
01:11:52,400 --> 01:11:53,920
Speaker 2: So let's just leave it at that. I don't want

1322
01:11:53,920 --> 01:11:57,080
Speaker 2: to administer your performance. They held Alabama to a season

1323
01:11:57,120 --> 01:11:59,599
Speaker 2: low two hundred and eighty eight yards. They beat Bama

1324
01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:02,439
Speaker 2: twenty six seven twenty in the Rose Bowl. They had

1325
01:12:02,479 --> 01:12:04,360
Speaker 2: to come back from down by a touchdown as the

1326
01:12:04,400 --> 01:12:09,799
Speaker 2: game wound down. Defensively, Michigan has four players ranked inside

1327
01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:14,120
Speaker 2: the top seventy five of NFL draft rankings, including three

1328
01:12:14,760 --> 01:12:16,880
Speaker 2: who play in their secondary. That means they have three

1329
01:12:16,920 --> 01:12:18,840
Speaker 2: defensive backs that will be drafted in the first couple

1330
01:12:18,840 --> 01:12:21,280
Speaker 2: of rounds. So Michigan's got a lot of talent on

1331
01:12:21,320 --> 01:12:24,760
Speaker 2: the back end, which makes you could argue makes them

1332
01:12:24,800 --> 01:12:29,400
Speaker 2: uniquely qualified or equipped at least to have a chance

1333
01:12:29,479 --> 01:12:33,479
Speaker 2: to contain Washington's passing attack. By the way, Michigan also

1334
01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:38,919
Speaker 2: registered six sacks in the Rose Bowl. Now Jalen Milroe

1335
01:12:38,960 --> 01:12:43,320
Speaker 2: had been sacked forty two times this year, so not

1336
01:12:43,400 --> 01:12:47,400
Speaker 2: really a great performance for Alabama's offensive line this year,

1337
01:12:47,439 --> 01:12:52,439
Speaker 2: which also makes what I would call the matchup Monday

1338
01:12:52,720 --> 01:12:58,800
Speaker 2: unique in the sense that Michigan is going to have

1339
01:12:58,880 --> 01:13:00,760
Speaker 2: their hands full with an offense. The line that won

1340
01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:04,280
Speaker 2: the Joe Moore Award this year as the nation's best.

1341
01:13:05,120 --> 01:13:10,040
Speaker 2: Michigan has been really fairly dominant all season. Washington hasn't

1342
01:13:10,040 --> 01:13:13,280
Speaker 2: always been completely dominant putting away teams like Michigan has,

1343
01:13:13,720 --> 01:13:17,040
Speaker 2: but they've been incredibly clutch, and they've made the plays

1344
01:13:17,040 --> 01:13:20,160
Speaker 2: when they needed to make them. Michigan has outscored their

1345
01:13:20,200 --> 01:13:24,240
Speaker 2: opponents by an average of twenty five points a game. Washington,

1346
01:13:24,600 --> 01:13:29,760
Speaker 2: still very impressively, has outscored their opponents by fourteen. Washington

1347
01:13:30,320 --> 01:13:33,080
Speaker 2: has only trailed and only five games, which is tied

1348
01:13:33,120 --> 01:13:35,960
Speaker 2: for the fewest any team in the country. Washington's won

1349
01:13:36,040 --> 01:13:38,960
Speaker 2: ten straight games by ten points or less. Again, they've

1350
01:13:38,960 --> 01:13:44,200
Speaker 2: been less dominant than Michigan, but when get when the

1351
01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:47,759
Speaker 2: heat gets hot, it's hard to breathe. Washington has proven

1352
01:13:48,240 --> 01:13:51,880
Speaker 2: they've got comfortable navigating the troubles that can come up

1353
01:13:52,400 --> 01:13:56,240
Speaker 2: when your game plan breaks down in clus games. So

1354
01:13:57,040 --> 01:14:02,040
Speaker 2: what's gonna happen here? Michigan's defense, it's still dominant. It's

1355
01:14:02,120 --> 01:14:05,360
Speaker 2: actually now being compared to that twenty twenty one Georgia

1356
01:14:05,439 --> 01:14:08,519
Speaker 2: unit that carried the Bulldogs to their first national title,

1357
01:14:08,560 --> 01:14:10,759
Speaker 2: and they've came in back and did it in twenty

1358
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:12,800
Speaker 2: twenty eight. The Wolverines have not a lot of single

1359
01:14:12,840 --> 01:14:16,479
Speaker 2: opponent to reach four hundred yards this season, and no

1360
01:14:16,479 --> 01:14:18,479
Speaker 2: one's scored more than twenty points in a single game

1361
01:14:18,520 --> 01:14:22,120
Speaker 2: this season. They're physical, they pick up first downs. Blake

1362
01:14:22,200 --> 01:14:25,160
Speaker 2: Korum in that running game has a way of wearing

1363
01:14:25,160 --> 01:14:27,639
Speaker 2: you down. I expect Michigan to be able to run

1364
01:14:27,680 --> 01:14:32,639
Speaker 2: the ball against Washington's defense, and a lot of folks

1365
01:14:33,000 --> 01:14:37,200
Speaker 2: are believing that that will be Washington's undoing, that they

1366
01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:39,679
Speaker 2: won't be able to stop the run, which will choo clock,

1367
01:14:39,680 --> 01:14:42,400
Speaker 2: which would keep the ball out of Pennis's hands. And

1368
01:14:42,520 --> 01:14:49,240
Speaker 2: if that happens, well, I think Michigan could win. Other narratives,

1369
01:14:49,560 --> 01:14:53,280
Speaker 2: these are two teams of destiny. Unfortunately, the football gods

1370
01:14:53,760 --> 01:14:57,280
Speaker 2: can only allow one to be the actual victorious team

1371
01:14:57,439 --> 01:15:03,120
Speaker 2: of destiny. You watch Michigan actually out scheme and outplay

1372
01:15:03,160 --> 01:15:07,640
Speaker 2: Alabama at crunch time. A lot of people like the

1373
01:15:07,640 --> 01:15:11,640
Speaker 2: Wolverines as well. Everybody's kind of backing up on the Wolverines.

1374
01:15:12,640 --> 01:15:16,400
Speaker 2: Michigan's offensive coordinator Searan Moore, there's no mystery as to

1375
01:15:16,439 --> 01:15:18,080
Speaker 2: what he's gonna do. He's gonna pound the rock and

1376
01:15:18,120 --> 01:15:20,559
Speaker 2: try to suck the air out of the defense. And

1377
01:15:20,600 --> 01:15:23,200
Speaker 2: then their defensive coordinator Jesse Minor, who has been brilliant

1378
01:15:23,200 --> 01:15:26,240
Speaker 2: this year, he'll try to get Panics off his mark.

1379
01:15:26,280 --> 01:15:28,799
Speaker 2: I think you'll see them stunt blitz from different angles.

1380
01:15:29,760 --> 01:15:31,679
Speaker 2: And the truth of the matter is. I think you'll

1381
01:15:31,680 --> 01:15:36,680
Speaker 2: see a situation where Michael Pennix may be pressured. And

1382
01:15:36,800 --> 01:15:40,719
Speaker 2: what great quarterback is pressured. It doesn't likes being pressured.

1383
01:15:42,720 --> 01:15:45,160
Speaker 2: But Penix is still too accurate. He's been the he

1384
01:15:45,240 --> 01:15:47,000
Speaker 2: keeps his eyes down field, he gets the ball out

1385
01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:49,400
Speaker 2: of his hand, and he's got four or five targets.

1386
01:15:49,439 --> 01:15:51,960
Speaker 2: Michigan hasn't seen anything like this. Hey, what forget my prediction,

1387
01:15:52,560 --> 01:15:54,200
Speaker 2: Let's bring in the cruise, Shaye. Do you have any

1388
01:15:54,280 --> 01:15:56,040
Speaker 2: thoughts on this championship game Monday?

1389
01:15:56,840 --> 01:15:59,320
Speaker 11: I mean, yeah, it's it's it's gonna be exciting to see.

1390
01:15:59,560 --> 01:16:03,920
Speaker 11: I mean, I don't know. It's you, you were you

1391
01:16:03,920 --> 01:16:06,479
Speaker 11: were bringing it up earlier. It's it's it's it's not

1392
01:16:06,520 --> 01:16:09,320
Speaker 11: that I'm excited to see it. It's I just don't know.

1393
01:16:09,800 --> 01:16:12,400
Speaker 11: I really don't know. I just sure because you were

1394
01:16:12,400 --> 01:16:14,679
Speaker 11: saying it earlier, like you would stay away from this game,

1395
01:16:14,720 --> 01:16:16,519
Speaker 11: like you would not bet on it, And I'm not

1396
01:16:16,560 --> 01:16:19,800
Speaker 11: betting on it at all. Like I like my friends

1397
01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:21,840
Speaker 11: were sending me parlays and all this stuff just with

1398
01:16:21,880 --> 01:16:24,200
Speaker 11: this game, and like you guys are crazy, Like I don't.

1399
01:16:24,240 --> 01:16:26,439
Speaker 11: I'm saying as far away as possible as I can

1400
01:16:26,479 --> 01:16:28,800
Speaker 11: from this game just because I don't know, and like

1401
01:16:29,200 --> 01:16:31,160
Speaker 11: I've never felt like this. It's like it's like with

1402
01:16:31,240 --> 01:16:33,479
Speaker 11: most college games, you're just so used to it being

1403
01:16:34,040 --> 01:16:36,840
Speaker 11: so easy to tell almost kind of like especially with

1404
01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:39,920
Speaker 11: these like where these last couple of Bowl games, it's

1405
01:16:39,960 --> 01:16:41,759
Speaker 11: either been like, oh, it's gonna be a high scoring

1406
01:16:41,760 --> 01:16:43,639
Speaker 11: game or a low scoring game, and it's it's it's

1407
01:16:43,640 --> 01:16:45,360
Speaker 11: gonna be super easy. It's gonna be either these guys

1408
01:16:45,439 --> 01:16:47,000
Speaker 11: or these guys. But with this game, I really have

1409
01:16:47,080 --> 01:16:49,439
Speaker 11: no idea what's going to happen. And I I mean,

1410
01:16:49,600 --> 01:16:51,240
Speaker 11: like I have a lot of people in my ear

1411
01:16:51,560 --> 01:16:53,320
Speaker 11: saying Michigan, but I really don't know.

1412
01:16:54,520 --> 01:16:58,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's fair because what happens is when

1413
01:16:58,160 --> 01:17:00,559
Speaker 2: you have these two distinct styles, which ones can to prevail,

1414
01:17:01,160 --> 01:17:03,400
Speaker 2: and it's different than in recent years. I mean just

1415
01:17:03,439 --> 01:17:06,759
Speaker 2: five years ago, Clempson beat Alabama forty four to sixteen,

1416
01:17:07,160 --> 01:17:09,559
Speaker 2: and you saw sixty five to seven blow last year.

1417
01:17:09,560 --> 01:17:12,760
Speaker 2: In a minute, I'm actually gonna give my prediction because

1418
01:17:12,760 --> 01:17:14,519
Speaker 2: I don't want to be the guy right in the fence.

1419
01:17:15,600 --> 01:17:17,479
Speaker 2: Kevin Wyrett, your thoughts on this game.

1420
01:17:18,640 --> 01:17:20,800
Speaker 6: Well, I'd love to see Washington win, just to send

1421
01:17:20,840 --> 01:17:23,920
Speaker 6: the Pac twelve out on a high note because I

1422
01:17:23,960 --> 01:17:25,760
Speaker 6: know one of the reasons why they struggled, I mean,

1423
01:17:25,800 --> 01:17:27,680
Speaker 6: besides their TV deal, of course, was the fact that

1424
01:17:27,720 --> 01:17:31,000
Speaker 6: they just couldn't make the playoff, let alone make it

1425
01:17:31,000 --> 01:17:33,880
Speaker 6: to the championship and win it. So I think this

1426
01:17:33,960 --> 01:17:36,280
Speaker 6: is a lot of validation for the quality of football

1427
01:17:36,320 --> 01:17:38,680
Speaker 6: that's been out on the West Coast to see Washington

1428
01:17:39,200 --> 01:17:41,240
Speaker 6: performing as well as they have, getting that big win

1429
01:17:41,760 --> 01:17:44,280
Speaker 6: against Texas in the Sugar Bowl and then advancing to

1430
01:17:44,320 --> 01:17:47,160
Speaker 6: play Michigan in the championship game. Michigan, I know, is

1431
01:17:47,160 --> 01:17:49,679
Speaker 6: a blue blood football program. They're one of the oldest

1432
01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:53,240
Speaker 6: college football programs, have the most wins. I know it's

1433
01:17:53,240 --> 01:17:55,559
Speaker 6: a big deal up there, But I'm a West Coast guy.

1434
01:17:55,600 --> 01:17:58,639
Speaker 6: I gotta stick with the Huskis and I love seeing

1435
01:17:58,880 --> 01:18:03,360
Speaker 6: Michael Pennix junior, that high flying Husky offense go. It's

1436
01:18:03,400 --> 01:18:05,240
Speaker 6: a lot of fun to watch, and that's who I'll

1437
01:18:05,280 --> 01:18:07,559
Speaker 6: be rooting for come Monday twelve.

1438
01:18:07,640 --> 01:18:07,920
Speaker 12: Baby.

1439
01:18:08,479 --> 01:18:11,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, fair enough, guys, and you might like my prediction

1440
01:18:11,840 --> 01:18:13,840
Speaker 2: because I'm gonna get off the fence. I've analyzed this

1441
01:18:13,880 --> 01:18:16,960
Speaker 2: game six ways from Tuesday, and I thought John Mitdlcoff

1442
01:18:16,960 --> 01:18:19,040
Speaker 2: brought up a great point last week. While Washington gets

1443
01:18:19,040 --> 01:18:20,559
Speaker 2: no respect for crying out lowed. They were a ten

1444
01:18:20,560 --> 01:18:23,439
Speaker 2: point underdog here in Las Vegas against Oregon. They beat

1445
01:18:23,439 --> 01:18:26,120
Speaker 2: Oregon twice this year and beat a very good Texas team.

1446
01:18:26,160 --> 01:18:27,760
Speaker 2: A lot of people who thought Texas would win the

1447
01:18:27,760 --> 01:18:30,639
Speaker 2: whole thing. The wrong team might be favored here. Washington

1448
01:18:30,680 --> 01:18:34,080
Speaker 2: offense is too damn good, and they are well suited,

1449
01:18:34,160 --> 01:18:36,559
Speaker 2: and they are designed to bring a fight to the

1450
01:18:36,600 --> 01:18:39,519
Speaker 2: Michigan defense in a completely different manner, not only that

1451
01:18:39,600 --> 01:18:41,680
Speaker 2: Michigan is seen all year, but a completely different man

1452
01:18:41,720 --> 01:18:44,799
Speaker 2: to that Alabama brought and Bama still managed to score

1453
01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:50,559
Speaker 2: twenty points. Also, Washington's offensive line is far more capable

1454
01:18:51,080 --> 01:18:54,679
Speaker 2: of slowing down Michigan's pass rush and Michigan's front seven

1455
01:18:55,240 --> 01:19:00,280
Speaker 2: than Alabama's. Once Alabama's was Pennix will have much more

1456
01:19:00,320 --> 01:19:03,519
Speaker 2: time to get his receivers. He's got guys right and left.

1457
01:19:04,120 --> 01:19:07,280
Speaker 2: He's gonna get Michigan out of their comfort zone. You

1458
01:19:07,280 --> 01:19:09,280
Speaker 2: can call it an upset. Washington's a four and a

1459
01:19:09,320 --> 01:19:12,760
Speaker 2: half point underdog. I think Washington prevails. I'm gonna call

1460
01:19:12,800 --> 01:19:18,479
Speaker 2: it Washington thirty Michigan twenty seven. So we'll see what

1461
01:19:18,640 --> 01:19:23,840
Speaker 2: happens coming up top of the hour. Dan Leech is

1462

Speaker 2: after that Lion's craziness in Dallas. And then he correctly

01:20:01,960 --> 01:20:06,000
Speaker 2: predicted that Michigan would prevail over Alabama on Monday. And

1478
01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:17,679
Speaker 9: Bertie Baby?

1479
01:20:18,040 --> 01:20:20,879
Speaker 8: I wasn't too far off last week thirty to twenty four, Michigan.

1480
01:20:22,120 --> 01:20:24,320
Speaker 9: I gotta tell you got in Houston today.

1481
01:20:24,920 --> 01:20:27,920
Speaker 8: Energy already here ringan cow bells on the plane land

1482
01:20:27,960 --> 01:20:31,920
Speaker 8: singing Let's go blue. It's to national title weekend. My friend,

1483
01:20:31,920 --> 01:20:32,720
Speaker 8: it's great to talk to you.

1484
01:20:33,520 --> 01:20:36,280
Speaker 2: So let's dive right into the game. The more I

1485
01:20:36,320 --> 01:20:41,320
Speaker 2: analyze it, obviously, styles make fights. Give me your thoughts

1486
01:20:41,360 --> 01:20:45,320
Speaker 2: on how Michigan defends Washington's passing game. And they're gonna

1487
01:20:45,360 --> 01:20:48,800
Speaker 2: have a much better offensive line than Alabama. They won

1488
01:20:48,840 --> 01:20:50,800
Speaker 2: the Joe Moore Awards, so let's start there.

1489
01:20:51,560 --> 01:20:52,240
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's funny.

1490
01:20:52,280 --> 01:20:53,720
Speaker 8: I get off the plane today and I run into

1491
01:20:53,960 --> 01:20:56,640
Speaker 8: a quarterback for the Rice Allis football team. I'm like,

1492
01:20:56,680 --> 01:20:57,360
Speaker 8: who you sharing for?

1493
01:20:57,439 --> 01:20:58,519
Speaker 9: He's like, well, I went.

1494
01:20:58,439 --> 01:21:00,559
Speaker 8: To school with Michael Pattock, so I'm gonna go Washington.

1495
01:21:00,600 --> 01:21:01,800
Speaker 9: I'm like, that's fine with me.

1496
01:21:02,200 --> 01:21:05,320
Speaker 8: And he is such a difference bigger Bernie and listened

1497
01:21:05,320 --> 01:21:07,240
Speaker 8: as a Wolverine fan. You gotta be scared of the guy.

1498
01:21:07,600 --> 01:21:09,600
Speaker 8: You got to understand that there's a reason that he

1499
01:21:09,720 --> 01:21:13,200
Speaker 8: is where he's at. He beat Michigan in Indiana. He

1500
01:21:13,280 --> 01:21:16,400
Speaker 8: obviously sliced the Texas defense that I think Michigan is

1501
01:21:16,439 --> 01:21:18,560
Speaker 8: better than, but made them look silly at times, for

1502
01:21:18,640 --> 01:21:21,000
Speaker 8: they almost gave that game. Wait was the Pennecks Hunters fault.

1503
01:21:21,160 --> 01:21:24,280
Speaker 8: It was the Washington defense's fault. But when you look

1504
01:21:24,280 --> 01:21:26,880
Speaker 8: at what he's able to do, I think Michigan is

1505
01:21:26,920 --> 01:21:28,360
Speaker 8: able to do it just as.

1506
01:21:28,200 --> 01:21:29,320
Speaker 9: Good the other way.

1507
01:21:29,520 --> 01:21:31,759
Speaker 8: When you got guys like Santa Strum and Will Johnson

1508
01:21:31,800 --> 01:21:34,160
Speaker 8: and they're almost ten goodbye picks and the way the

1509
01:21:34,200 --> 01:21:37,479
Speaker 8: Michigan defense, to me, Bernie, the reason they beat Alabama

1510
01:21:37,560 --> 01:21:40,479
Speaker 8: not playing their best game is the front seven of

1511
01:21:40,520 --> 01:21:43,439
Speaker 8: the Wolverines got after Jalen Monroe, and I kind of

1512
01:21:43,479 --> 01:21:46,040
Speaker 8: said when I talked with you guys last week that

1513
01:21:46,400 --> 01:21:49,240
Speaker 8: to me, the key was gonna be the Michigan defense

1514
01:21:49,640 --> 01:21:51,759
Speaker 8: taking over that game when it mattered. Even though Michigan

1515
01:21:51,800 --> 01:21:54,120
Speaker 8: played slop he had special teams. The worst they did

1516
01:21:54,120 --> 01:21:56,439
Speaker 8: all season had their issues on offense with a que trick.

1517
01:21:56,439 --> 01:21:59,400
Speaker 8: Plays didn't work by you know, offenive here offhinage. There

1518
01:22:00,560 --> 01:22:03,040
Speaker 8: was a difference to me, that is going to be

1519
01:22:03,120 --> 01:22:06,680
Speaker 8: the X factor on Monday Night. Penis will get his

1520
01:22:06,760 --> 01:22:09,240
Speaker 8: stuff done, but it's a matter of how much can

1521
01:22:09,320 --> 01:22:11,880
Speaker 8: you get done if the Wolverines get pressure on him

1522
01:22:11,960 --> 01:22:14,360
Speaker 8: and force me to make you uncomfortable throws. That's the

1523
01:22:14,400 --> 01:22:16,560
Speaker 8: difference to me in this game because j will not

1524
01:22:16,720 --> 01:22:19,519
Speaker 8: JJ McCarthy will not have another off game for the

1525
01:22:19,560 --> 01:22:20,360
Speaker 8: second week in a row.

1526
01:22:20,680 --> 01:22:25,720
Speaker 2: Think, well, you hope, I mean, I like JJ McCarthy,

1527
01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:28,080
Speaker 2: but uh, let me just put it to you this way.

1528
01:22:28,640 --> 01:22:31,439
Speaker 2: You do know that heading into last week's game, they

1529
01:22:31,479 --> 01:22:35,040
Speaker 2: had Bamah had already surrendered forty two sacks to Jaln Milroe.

1530
01:22:35,560 --> 01:22:38,080
Speaker 2: Jalen Milroe is not even a fraction of what Michael

1531
01:22:38,080 --> 01:22:41,320
Speaker 2: Pennix is and the passing attack with three NFL receivers.

1532
01:22:41,360 --> 01:22:44,519
Speaker 2: So I expect Michigan to get some pressure, but I

1533
01:22:44,560 --> 01:22:46,800
Speaker 2: also expect Michael Penix to get the ball out of

1534
01:22:46,800 --> 01:22:48,519
Speaker 2: his hands. But be that as it, man, that's where

1535
01:22:48,560 --> 01:22:52,719
Speaker 2: the styles make fights now. Offensively, I do dan expect

1536
01:22:52,720 --> 01:22:59,280
Speaker 2: Michigan to run the ball well. But Washington, while statistically

1537
01:22:59,320 --> 01:23:02,800
Speaker 2: not as good an e defense as Michigan, has been opportunistic.

1538
01:23:02,840 --> 01:23:04,240
Speaker 2: I'm out here on the West Coast, so I've seen

1539
01:23:04,280 --> 01:23:07,000
Speaker 2: him a lot. What do you think? What do your

1540
01:23:07,040 --> 01:23:13,280
Speaker 2: Scotts tell you about? You know, Washington's defense as they

1541
01:23:13,760 --> 01:23:15,960
Speaker 2: you know, scheme against Michigan's offense.

1542
01:23:16,439 --> 01:23:19,120
Speaker 8: But by the way, really quick, JJ McCarthy twenty nine

1543
01:23:19,120 --> 01:23:20,960
Speaker 8: and one of the third best winning percentage of the

1544
01:23:21,120 --> 01:23:24,000
Speaker 8: history of the FBS the quarterback. So he's definitely got

1545
01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:27,160
Speaker 8: his accolade a kid, no doubt about it. Yes, he

1546
01:23:27,320 --> 01:23:30,080
Speaker 8: is unbelievable. And I'll tell you that's when it comes

1547
01:23:30,080 --> 01:23:31,479
Speaker 8: to And I'm not gonna obviously tell you what.

1548
01:23:31,560 --> 01:23:32,439
Speaker 9: My score is yet.

1549
01:23:32,600 --> 01:23:34,559
Speaker 8: I'll save that for the little tease if you will.

1550
01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:36,960
Speaker 8: But if you might think, okay, well why is the

1551
01:23:37,200 --> 01:23:41,040
Speaker 8: you know legions score this? The key to me is

1552
01:23:41,160 --> 01:23:44,839
Speaker 8: Michigan controlling the tempo, is running Corum down their throats,

1553
01:23:45,040 --> 01:23:45,360
Speaker 8: and I.

1554
01:23:45,360 --> 01:23:46,559
Speaker 9: Believe they can't.

1555
01:23:46,840 --> 01:23:48,960
Speaker 8: And obviously Donovan Edwards. You go back a couple of years

1556
01:23:48,960 --> 01:23:51,400
Speaker 8: when Korum was hurt in the Ohio State, Gaven Edwards

1557
01:23:51,400 --> 01:23:53,720
Speaker 8: just exploded. I was there in Columbus and watched that

1558
01:23:53,760 --> 01:23:55,800
Speaker 8: in person, and I'll tell you he hasn't been much

1559
01:23:55,800 --> 01:23:58,160
Speaker 8: of a factor at all, but the Wolverine line he was.

1560
01:23:58,200 --> 01:24:03,200
Speaker 8: His round was phenomenal last week against them in big moments.

1561
01:24:03,520 --> 01:24:06,439
Speaker 8: And to me, what Michigan can do, of all the

1562
01:24:06,479 --> 01:24:09,639
Speaker 8: different factors in this game, better than anything that either

1563
01:24:09,680 --> 01:24:12,360
Speaker 8: team can do is run the ball against Washington. I

1564
01:24:12,360 --> 01:24:14,639
Speaker 8: don't think Washington's got a great run defense. I think

1565
01:24:14,640 --> 01:24:16,360
Speaker 8: that when you look at the way that Michigan's locked

1566
01:24:16,400 --> 01:24:19,200
Speaker 8: you without dinner. Who's a heart and soul guy. But obviously,

1567
01:24:19,240 --> 01:24:21,320
Speaker 8: you know, made the adjustments they need to from what

1568
01:24:21,360 --> 01:24:23,080
Speaker 8: I'm hearing about the way the Michigan's pragniced in the

1569
01:24:23,120 --> 01:24:25,360
Speaker 8: short turn around week for what they've been obviously do

1570
01:24:25,439 --> 01:24:28,880
Speaker 8: all season long, burning is run the ball effectively. In

1571
01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:32,040
Speaker 8: Coreum had one of the most heroic runs in Michigan history.

1572
01:24:32,360 --> 01:24:33,840
Speaker 8: My friends are at the Rose Bowl.

1573
01:24:34,120 --> 01:24:36,400
Speaker 9: You know it was allowed over time.

1574
01:24:36,840 --> 01:24:38,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, every time he's ever.

1575
01:24:38,160 --> 01:24:40,800
Speaker 8: Heard it when he scores that touchdown. So I think

1576
01:24:40,840 --> 01:24:43,880
Speaker 8: you're going to see similar stuff on Monday Night. Where

1577
01:24:43,880 --> 01:24:46,120
Speaker 8: Blake Corum has been a hero for the full for

1578
01:24:46,160 --> 01:24:48,920
Speaker 8: INSS basically his whole career, He's going to do it again.

1579
01:24:49,160 --> 01:24:51,200
Speaker 9: And that's right. I think is a huge way for.

1580
01:24:51,280 --> 01:24:54,799
Speaker 8: Michigan control the tempo on offense and really big Washington

1581
01:24:54,800 --> 01:24:57,040
Speaker 8: press with patics who could do a good job doing that,

1582
01:24:57,240 --> 01:24:59,720
Speaker 8: but maybe, as I mentioned, with an offensive pressure for

1583
01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:02,360
Speaker 8: statics Junior in the more errors that he's.

1584
01:25:02,280 --> 01:25:02,760
Speaker 10: Used to doing.

1585
01:25:03,360 --> 01:25:06,599
Speaker 2: Here's the thing. The Huskies are used to going down

1586
01:25:06,640 --> 01:25:10,040
Speaker 2: to the wire and Michigan's had very few games like that,

1587
01:25:10,360 --> 01:25:14,080
Speaker 2: and the Huskies just don't get respect. I mean, they

1588
01:25:14,080 --> 01:25:16,200
Speaker 2: were an underdog five times this year. They went all

1589
01:25:16,200 --> 01:25:18,599
Speaker 2: out right, they are nine to zero in the last

1590
01:25:18,600 --> 01:25:23,840
Speaker 2: two years against ranked teams. Meanwhile, Jim Harbaugh and he

1591
01:25:24,160 --> 01:25:27,200
Speaker 2: got off the side against Bama. But do you hold

1592
01:25:27,280 --> 01:25:31,880
Speaker 2: any credence to Michigan's history when they play top ranked teams,

1593
01:25:31,960 --> 01:25:35,080
Speaker 2: number two ranked teams on a neutral against the non

1594
01:25:35,120 --> 01:25:38,479
Speaker 2: Big ten opponent in their history, do you give any

1595
01:25:38,479 --> 01:25:39,479
Speaker 2: credence to that at all.

1596
01:25:40,280 --> 01:25:42,519
Speaker 8: Already, for all the praise I'll give myself for from

1597
01:25:42,520 --> 01:25:45,240
Speaker 8: taking things right, I gotta give myself, you know, the

1598
01:25:45,600 --> 01:25:46,400
Speaker 8: other side.

1599
01:25:46,200 --> 01:25:47,200
Speaker 9: When I do things wrong.

1600
01:25:47,720 --> 01:25:50,680
Speaker 8: Four years ago, Bernie on that to Blowtorks that you

1601
01:25:50,720 --> 01:25:53,599
Speaker 8: and I, you know, became great friends years ago, from.

1602
01:25:53,479 --> 01:25:55,840
Speaker 2: Night ninety seven to one, that is the Blowtipe.

1603
01:25:56,280 --> 01:25:59,400
Speaker 8: I was going up and down the air on several

1604
01:25:59,520 --> 01:26:03,439
Speaker 8: shows several months calling for Jim Harbaugh's job because he

1605
01:26:03,520 --> 01:26:07,080
Speaker 8: was at one point Ohn ten against right teams own

1606
01:26:07,200 --> 01:26:09,720
Speaker 8: ten and the biggest games is in his era there

1607
01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:12,120
Speaker 8: since he had come to be the head coach. And

1608
01:26:12,200 --> 01:26:15,160
Speaker 8: I was thank god, you know, as a Michigan fan

1609
01:26:15,200 --> 01:26:17,479
Speaker 8: that I've always been my entire life. I was completely

1610
01:26:17,520 --> 01:26:20,639
Speaker 8: wrong about that, and I accept that that is definitely something.

1611
01:26:20,680 --> 01:26:23,360
Speaker 8: And listen, this was the third trade year of the playoffs, Bernie.

1612
01:26:23,479 --> 01:26:25,720
Speaker 8: They could have lost that game to Alabama. They'd be

1613
01:26:25,760 --> 01:26:29,080
Speaker 8: like the Buffalo Bills of college football. It almost happened again.

1614
01:26:29,439 --> 01:26:32,320
Speaker 8: That being said, there is something about this team. There

1615
01:26:32,400 --> 01:26:36,519
Speaker 8: is something about Jim Harbaugh missing six games, coaching six games,

1616
01:26:36,720 --> 01:26:39,160
Speaker 8: and then having all the things around this team, having

1617
01:26:39,200 --> 01:26:42,040
Speaker 8: guys like jaj McCarthy, having guys like Coaston Leveland and

1618
01:26:42,080 --> 01:26:45,360
Speaker 8: Blake Corn and Sharon Moore the the assistant head coach,

1619
01:26:45,640 --> 01:26:48,719
Speaker 8: and Jesse Mitchell running the defense. There's just something different

1620
01:26:48,760 --> 01:26:51,240
Speaker 8: about this team. And the talent level is as good

1621
01:26:51,240 --> 01:26:54,120
Speaker 8: as it's ever been. So while he's definitely had the

1622
01:26:54,160 --> 01:26:58,719
Speaker 8: bugaboo and the issues against top right teams, lately, Bois

1623
01:26:58,720 --> 01:27:00,920
Speaker 8: Michigan looked like the number one even the country, and

1624
01:27:00,960 --> 01:27:02,680
Speaker 8: I believe they could show that again on Monday night.

1625
01:27:03,920 --> 01:27:06,559
Speaker 2: Okay, let's get your prediction, my friend, and give us

1626
01:27:06,560 --> 01:27:08,080
Speaker 2: what you think the final score will be.

1627
01:27:08,680 --> 01:27:10,400
Speaker 8: Yeah, I alluded to this where you know it was

1628
01:27:10,400 --> 01:27:13,360
Speaker 8: the lowest total of the CFP history last week, forty five,

1629
01:27:13,439 --> 01:27:16,120
Speaker 8: forty five and a half. It's for fifty five fifty

1630
01:27:16,120 --> 01:27:19,000
Speaker 8: five and a half this week, And to me, even

1631
01:27:19,000 --> 01:27:21,439
Speaker 8: though it's a higher totally, people say, well, if Michigan's

1632
01:27:21,439 --> 01:27:23,360
Speaker 8: gonna win this game, they got to control it and

1633
01:27:23,760 --> 01:27:26,240
Speaker 8: keep the scoring down. I looked back to Ohio State

1634
01:27:26,280 --> 01:27:29,320
Speaker 8: forty a couple of years ago in Columbus, where this.

1635
01:27:29,960 --> 01:27:32,479
Speaker 9: Washington Ohio State team. Obviously you had CJ.

1636
01:27:32,560 --> 01:27:35,320
Speaker 8: Stroud, you had all these different, you know, kind of comparisons.

1637
01:27:35,320 --> 01:27:36,040
Speaker 9: I've seen CJ.

1638
01:27:36,120 --> 01:27:38,840
Speaker 8: Stroud, who obviously has been incredible. Is Michael Pennix that

1639
01:27:38,880 --> 01:27:41,280
Speaker 8: there are some comparisons there, and Michigan put.

1640
01:27:41,120 --> 01:27:42,240
Speaker 9: A ton of points on him.

1641
01:27:42,439 --> 01:27:45,000
Speaker 8: So to me, I think Michigan's gonna run the ball,

1642
01:27:45,120 --> 01:27:47,000
Speaker 8: but they're going to score the points. And I think

1643
01:27:47,040 --> 01:27:49,280
Speaker 8: in the end thirty four to twenty four a ten

1644
01:27:49,320 --> 01:27:53,479
Speaker 8: point end, just yep, just enough that Fort Pennick Junior

1645
01:27:53,720 --> 01:27:56,200
Speaker 8: to make the mistakes that turn the game around. And

1646
01:27:56,240 --> 01:27:58,559
Speaker 8: I call it for at Santa strro Pack six last week,

1647
01:27:58,760 --> 01:28:01,519
Speaker 8: I'd get it. I'm called for it this week thirty

1648
01:28:01,600 --> 01:28:03,840
Speaker 8: four to twenty four, I'll be wearing no shirt and

1649
01:28:03,920 --> 01:28:06,599
Speaker 8: a Michigan Rappers. Shane and the Wolverings are their first

1650
01:28:06,680 --> 01:28:10,320
Speaker 8: outright national title since nineteen forty eight, my father, the

1651
01:28:10,320 --> 01:28:12,600
Speaker 8: Great Doc Leach, was one years old.

1652
01:28:13,760 --> 01:28:16,320
Speaker 2: Well, let's do this because I've already predicted. I believe

1653
01:28:16,360 --> 01:28:20,599
Speaker 2: Washington's gonna win thirty to twenty seven on here we go. Yeah,

1654
01:28:20,640 --> 01:28:22,479
Speaker 2: but I've seen this team play a lot, and I've

1655
01:28:22,520 --> 01:28:25,479
Speaker 2: seen Boston I've seen. But listen, one of us will

1656
01:28:25,520 --> 01:28:25,800
Speaker 2: be right.

1657
01:28:25,880 --> 01:28:26,040

Speaker 2: come to your live from Las Vegas, Fox Sports Radio,

1672
01:29:03,560 --> 01:29:06,799
Speaker 2: TIREC dot com Studios here in Las Vegas. We resume

1673
01:29:06,880 --> 01:29:11,559
Speaker 2: with our guy, Dan Leach, a Detroit institution many years

1674
01:29:11,560 --> 01:29:15,000
Speaker 2: at ninety seven to one in Detroit to blowtarch covering

1675
01:29:15,040 --> 01:29:18,120
Speaker 2: all the big sports. We've talked about the Wolverines, Let's

1676
01:29:18,120 --> 01:29:21,559
Speaker 2: talk about the Lions. The game end at an unceremonious fashion.

1677
01:29:21,600 --> 01:29:24,760
Speaker 2: Here's why Dan. I was defending Dan Campbell all week.

1678
01:29:25,560 --> 01:29:28,160
Speaker 2: He told the team we score, We're going for two. Period.

1679
01:29:28,560 --> 01:29:31,280
Speaker 2: We're not going to risk an overtime session on the

1680
01:29:31,360 --> 01:29:34,400
Speaker 2: road in a hostile environment. We're going for two. I've

1681
01:29:34,400 --> 01:29:36,040
Speaker 2: heard it takes some He took some heat over that.

1682
01:29:36,080 --> 01:29:37,760
Speaker 2: It was okay the first time or the second time,

1683
01:29:37,840 --> 01:29:40,240
Speaker 2: at the third time a bit much. This is why

1684
01:29:40,320 --> 01:29:44,200
Speaker 2: they're eleven and five, check that twelve and well whatever,

1685
01:29:44,240 --> 01:29:46,880
Speaker 2: they are eleven and you know what I'm trying to

1686
01:29:46,920 --> 01:29:49,240
Speaker 2: go with this, eleven and five five and they're nineteen

1687
01:29:49,280 --> 01:29:51,240
Speaker 2: and seven in the last two years. You can't have

1688
01:29:51,320 --> 01:29:55,599
Speaker 2: it both ways. Did Dan Campbell take some heat locally

1689
01:29:55,640 --> 01:29:57,480
Speaker 2: there in Detroit for some of his decisions?

1690
01:29:58,400 --> 01:30:00,759
Speaker 8: Yeah, well, let me tell you you're a very smart

1691
01:30:00,760 --> 01:30:04,439
Speaker 8: man for many reasons. There's another one for defending Dan Campbell,

1692
01:30:04,439 --> 01:30:06,920
Speaker 8: and I can't stress this up. But I've been talking

1693
01:30:06,960 --> 01:30:09,760
Speaker 8: about it all week and thinking about this in all

1694
01:30:09,800 --> 01:30:13,080
Speaker 8: different facets. You know, you look at the Lions, you

1695
01:30:13,120 --> 01:30:15,200
Speaker 8: go back to I mean people in Detroit on won't

1696
01:30:15,280 --> 01:30:17,760
Speaker 8: even bring his name about Matt Patricia and just how

1697
01:30:17,800 --> 01:30:20,839
Speaker 8: awful things work. And you look at what Dan Campbell

1698
01:30:20,840 --> 01:30:23,000
Speaker 8: and Brad Holmes did, and obviously Campbell.

1699
01:30:22,640 --> 01:30:23,280
Speaker 9: Was hired first.

1700
01:30:23,320 --> 01:30:25,559
Speaker 8: Rarely you normally have a g I'm hired first. So

1701
01:30:25,600 --> 01:30:26,960
Speaker 8: that's the way we came in Detroit.

1702
01:30:27,400 --> 01:30:27,880
Speaker 9: And they have.

1703
01:30:27,920 --> 01:30:32,519
Speaker 8: Worked in this incredible synergistic tangent together or tanned together.

1704
01:30:33,120 --> 01:30:36,840
Speaker 8: And Dan Campbell, this team embodies their coach. He is

1705
01:30:37,120 --> 01:30:40,240
Speaker 8: a gambler, but not for the wrong reasons. He is

1706
01:30:40,280 --> 01:30:43,160
Speaker 8: a guy that believes and did preaches to his team

1707
01:30:43,200 --> 01:30:45,120
Speaker 8: and I've seen him do this off close and personal,

1708
01:30:45,439 --> 01:30:47,519
Speaker 8: that they're never out of a game, that they can

1709
01:30:47,560 --> 01:30:50,080
Speaker 8: make special things happen, things that we have not in

1710
01:30:50,160 --> 01:30:53,160
Speaker 8: Detroit seen. You know, since nineteen ninety two, they have

1711
01:30:53,200 --> 01:30:56,560
Speaker 8: one playoff win since nineteen fifty seven and all the

1712
01:30:56,600 --> 01:30:58,639
Speaker 8: same what are you the first division titles ceting since

1713
01:30:58,720 --> 01:31:01,840
Speaker 8: nineteen ninety three. I was high school and you've got

1714
01:31:01,880 --> 01:31:04,280
Speaker 8: to take this is the thing about Dan Campbell. You've

1715
01:31:04,320 --> 01:31:07,040
Speaker 8: got to take both sides of that. And now, listen,

1716
01:31:07,080 --> 01:31:09,160
Speaker 8: while I didn't think it was a smart move after

1717
01:31:09,160 --> 01:31:10,880
Speaker 8: the penalty to go for the second and third time,

1718
01:31:11,600 --> 01:31:13,599
Speaker 8: you look at what this is gonna do Ernie down

1719
01:31:13,640 --> 01:31:16,120
Speaker 8: the road. It didn't work out in that Dallas game

1720
01:31:16,160 --> 01:31:18,760
Speaker 8: on the road, but it's gonna reward this team, and

1721
01:31:18,760 --> 01:31:22,200
Speaker 8: it's gonna reward Dan Campbell's moxie at some point, maybe

1722
01:31:22,200 --> 01:31:24,920
Speaker 8: even in this playoff series, in this playoff run this

1723
01:31:25,000 --> 01:31:27,280
Speaker 8: year when they host their first playoff game ever at

1724
01:31:27,320 --> 01:31:30,840
Speaker 8: Ford Field, because they're gonna they're playing. They're an NFL

1725
01:31:30,920 --> 01:31:33,200
Speaker 8: team where so many of these days will play not

1726
01:31:33,320 --> 01:31:36,120
Speaker 8: to lose. They played to win, and you've got to

1727
01:31:36,160 --> 01:31:38,559
Speaker 8: take both sides of that with Dan Campbell, and I

1728
01:31:38,600 --> 01:31:38,920
Speaker 8: love it.

1729
01:31:39,160 --> 01:31:39,840
Speaker 9: I have no.

1730
01:31:39,720 --> 01:31:42,880
Speaker 8: Problem with him when I was watching the game saying, listen,

1731
01:31:43,120 --> 01:31:44,800
Speaker 8: they're gonna go down to score and they're gonna go

1732
01:31:44,840 --> 01:31:47,120
Speaker 8: for two. And I was totally fine with that. And

1733
01:31:47,120 --> 01:31:49,160
Speaker 8: that's if you're a live fan. You want to have

1734
01:31:49,320 --> 01:31:52,240
Speaker 8: your coach believe in this team's ability, especially on the

1735
01:31:52,360 --> 01:31:55,719
Speaker 8: road at a place where the Dallas Cowboys have rarely lost.

1736
01:31:55,760 --> 01:31:58,280
Speaker 8: The last couple of years and that huge winning streak.

1737
01:31:58,640 --> 01:32:00,600
Speaker 8: You go there and you take it from them. You

1738
01:32:00,600 --> 01:32:03,120
Speaker 8: don't give them a chance, you know, to take.

1739
01:32:02,960 --> 01:32:03,360
Speaker 9: It from you.

1740
01:32:03,680 --> 01:32:05,720
Speaker 8: And you had the referees when it gotten involved. I

1741
01:32:05,760 --> 01:32:07,360
Speaker 8: don't like to play officials, but that was one of

1742
01:32:07,439 --> 01:32:09,760
Speaker 8: the few times that it was so egregious. And you know,

1743
01:32:09,800 --> 01:32:11,360
Speaker 8: I know you and I talked about it last week

1744
01:32:11,439 --> 01:32:14,080
Speaker 8: got brand Allen. Hopefully he's gonna be roughing some high

1745
01:32:14,080 --> 01:32:16,439
Speaker 8: school games somewhere in the next couple of weeks. But

1746
01:32:16,960 --> 01:32:19,160
Speaker 8: it's one of those things, Bernie, where I as a

1747
01:32:19,280 --> 01:32:22,200
Speaker 8: long suffering line fan covering this team for decades, you

1748
01:32:22,280 --> 01:32:25,040
Speaker 8: know what it's like here in Detroit. I love what

1749
01:32:25,200 --> 01:32:27,320
Speaker 8: Dan Campbell breaks to the table and somebody we've never

1750
01:32:27,360 --> 01:32:30,360
Speaker 8: had here, a coach that doesn't care what others think.

1751
01:32:30,680 --> 01:32:33,280
Speaker 8: He believes his team to get the job done.

1752
01:32:33,479 --> 01:32:34,439
Speaker 9: At boy, I think.

1753
01:32:34,280 --> 01:32:37,400
Speaker 8: He's going to really pay dividends as this regime goes forward,

1754
01:32:38,200 --> 01:32:39,240
Speaker 8: a complete agreement.

1755
01:32:39,439 --> 01:32:41,439
Speaker 2: He's completely changed the culture.

1756
01:32:41,960 --> 01:32:42,080
Speaker 9: Now.

1757
01:32:42,160 --> 01:32:45,800
Speaker 2: Long gone are the days when Marty morning who goes

1758
01:32:45,840 --> 01:32:48,760
Speaker 2: over time against the Bears, hey and alects to take

1759
01:32:48,800 --> 01:32:51,720
Speaker 2: the wind. Yeah, I mean, my god. All right, let's

1760
01:32:51,760 --> 01:32:55,360
Speaker 2: look ahead to Sunday. What do you expect how do

1761
01:32:55,360 --> 01:32:58,559
Speaker 2: you expect the Lions to finish against the Vikings? Frankly,

1762
01:32:58,600 --> 01:33:01,680
Speaker 2: I expect him to win the game by about a touchdown,

1763
01:33:02,200 --> 01:33:05,960
Speaker 2: and that, of course will lead to the perhaps most

1764
01:33:06,000 --> 01:33:09,120
Speaker 2: anticipated matchup. But let's let's stay with Sunday first. How

1765
01:33:09,120 --> 01:33:12,280
Speaker 2: do you expect the Lions to react after last Saturday's

1766
01:33:12,320 --> 01:33:13,720
Speaker 2: situation in Dallas?

1767
01:33:14,160 --> 01:33:14,320
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1768
01:33:14,360 --> 01:33:16,559
Speaker 8: Who started for the Vikings as Brett Johnson? I mean,

1769
01:33:16,680 --> 01:33:18,240
Speaker 8: is there other sixteenth quarterback?

1770
01:33:19,680 --> 01:33:22,120
Speaker 5: J Warren Moon?

1771
01:33:22,240 --> 01:33:25,680
Speaker 9: I don't know, I'll I'll done.

1772
01:33:26,080 --> 01:33:28,960
Speaker 8: It's a weird, and we know the week eighteen is weird.

1773
01:33:29,040 --> 01:33:31,599
Speaker 8: A lot of times, teams that look like no chance

1774
01:33:31,600 --> 01:33:34,000
Speaker 8: of winning the resting starters end up winning really big

1775
01:33:34,040 --> 01:33:35,519
Speaker 8: and the teams that really.

1776
01:33:35,320 --> 01:33:36,160
Speaker 9: Need to win don't.

1777
01:33:37,160 --> 01:33:39,800
Speaker 8: Brett Day Campbell has said he is going to play

1778
01:33:39,800 --> 01:33:42,560
Speaker 8: his starters to get the two seam Dallas. That's to

1779
01:33:42,640 --> 01:33:45,880
Speaker 8: lose to the Commandos. It's not gonna happen, but I

1780
01:33:45,880 --> 01:33:47,639
Speaker 8: think they're gonna go out there and maybe he runs

1781
01:33:47,680 --> 01:33:49,639
Speaker 8: them in the second half. If you know, it looks

1782
01:33:49,640 --> 01:33:51,920
Speaker 8: like these are on a hand in Washington, But I

1783
01:33:51,920 --> 01:33:53,640
Speaker 8: don't think they're gonna worry about that. He's gonna go

1784
01:33:53,680 --> 01:33:56,160
Speaker 8: out there last home game, regular regular home game of

1785
01:33:56,200 --> 01:33:59,200
Speaker 8: the season when they host that first ever exploding of

1786
01:33:58,800 --> 01:34:02,760
Speaker 8: the Fordfield building, ever playoff game next week, which I'll

1787
01:34:02,760 --> 01:34:05,360
Speaker 8: be at, And I think the Lions are gonna be Minnesota.

1788
01:34:05,400 --> 01:34:05,720
Speaker 9: I'm with you.

1789
01:34:05,760 --> 01:34:07,720
Speaker 8: I think that Amona Ross Saint Brought is a big

1790
01:34:07,760 --> 01:34:10,160
Speaker 8: game at Jamaier. Gams gets seen going like the Lions

1791
01:34:10,160 --> 01:34:12,400
Speaker 8: defense gets every nick moments and the Vikings you know,

1792
01:34:12,520 --> 01:34:15,280
Speaker 8: offensive line, and I think that it's you know, the

1793
01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:17,920
Speaker 8: Lions showing that they can recover. I mean, this is

1794
01:34:17,920 --> 01:34:19,559
Speaker 8: a team that hasn't lost two games in a row

1795
01:34:19,800 --> 01:34:22,120
Speaker 8: in almost two years now, and they've had such a

1796
01:34:22,840 --> 01:34:26,439
Speaker 8: way of bouncing back and not letting bad losses hang

1797
01:34:26,520 --> 01:34:28,759
Speaker 8: over their heads or tough losses hang over their heads.

1798
01:34:28,880 --> 01:34:29,439
Speaker 9: So I think it's.

1799
01:34:29,320 --> 01:34:31,599
Speaker 8: Getting more of the same and more of the Lions

1800
01:34:31,600 --> 01:34:33,519
Speaker 8: being great at ford Field. As you know, Vernie've ben

1801
01:34:33,600 --> 01:34:36,519
Speaker 8: so much better, Zone's been so much better hold this

1802
01:34:36,640 --> 01:34:39,000
Speaker 8: year and just fed the bike. He's on the road to,

1803
01:34:39,600 --> 01:34:41,360
Speaker 8: you know, get the division titles done a couple of

1804
01:34:41,360 --> 01:34:44,679
Speaker 8: weeks ago. So to me, I think that the Lions

1805
01:34:44,720 --> 01:34:46,920
Speaker 8: are clearly a better team in Minnesota, even if they're

1806
01:34:46,960 --> 01:34:49,920
Speaker 8: not one hundred percent the way that Dan Cable coaches Murdie.

1807
01:34:50,040 --> 01:34:51,080
Speaker 9: We just talked about it.

1808
01:34:51,280 --> 01:34:53,840
Speaker 8: He's gonna have those guys out there like this game matters,

1809
01:34:53,840 --> 01:34:55,519
Speaker 8: and I think that's actually gonna give the Lions a

1810
01:34:55,600 --> 01:34:57,320
Speaker 8: nice advantage heading into the playoffs.

1811
01:34:58,240 --> 01:35:02,679
Speaker 2: Uh, quickly, what was the narrative to the media when

1812
01:35:02,800 --> 01:35:05,720
Speaker 2: Dan Campbell came back and his Monday press conference and

1813
01:35:07,040 --> 01:35:11,520
Speaker 2: the resultant weekly narrative as the week you know, progressed

1814
01:35:11,600 --> 01:35:15,400
Speaker 2: on in terms of how the Dallas game ended. What

1815
01:35:15,520 --> 01:35:19,559
Speaker 2: Dan Campbell's explanation was the disconnect with the referees, et cetera,

1816
01:35:19,600 --> 01:35:23,320
Speaker 2: et cetera. I mean they even today on the NFL

1817
01:35:23,360 --> 01:35:26,200
Speaker 2: segment on ESPN with Rex Ryan did this twenty minute

1818
01:35:26,200 --> 01:35:28,880
Speaker 2: elongated thing with the refs saying what they would have

1819
01:35:28,880 --> 01:35:31,400
Speaker 2: done and it just won't end. So what was the

1820
01:35:31,479 --> 01:35:33,280
Speaker 2: narrative in Detroit there in the belly of the beast.

1821
01:35:33,840 --> 01:35:35,680
Speaker 8: You know, it's crazy and you know, like I do,

1822
01:35:36,120 --> 01:35:38,920
Speaker 8: Detroit very very well, and it's not a lot of

1823
01:35:38,960 --> 01:35:41,360
Speaker 8: good will has been given the Lions head coaches in

1824
01:35:41,479 --> 01:35:44,200
Speaker 8: years past, but it just shows you, It shows you

1825
01:35:44,280 --> 01:35:47,320
Speaker 8: this culture change because even some of the most negative

1826
01:35:47,720 --> 01:35:51,000
Speaker 8: beat writers, the people that cover the team. Yeah, there's

1827
01:35:51,040 --> 01:35:52,639
Speaker 8: people that think that maybe it was a little crazy

1828
01:35:52,680 --> 01:35:55,360
Speaker 8: went for the second and third time, but they're doing

1829
01:35:55,360 --> 01:35:57,799
Speaker 8: Campbell the benefit of doubt, and I'm not saying standing

1830
01:35:57,880 --> 01:36:00,679
Speaker 8: up for it, but understanding that you know, this could

1831
01:36:00,680 --> 01:36:03,320
Speaker 8: have been a Texas two step screw job by the NFL.

1832
01:36:03,560 --> 01:36:06,360
Speaker 8: And then Brad, you know, Brad Allen's crew got devoted

1833
01:36:06,360 --> 01:36:08,559
Speaker 8: for a reason, and all the weird three games they've

1834
01:36:08,560 --> 01:36:10,240
Speaker 8: had this year, and the issues they had in that

1835
01:36:10,280 --> 01:36:12,519
Speaker 8: Green Bay, Kansas City game, in the Philly Miami game,

1836
01:36:12,800 --> 01:36:16,000
Speaker 8: and really just understanding and knowing that Dan Campbell wanted

1837
01:36:16,040 --> 01:36:18,960
Speaker 8: to move on, but also that he was angry, and

1838
01:36:19,080 --> 01:36:21,360
Speaker 8: this is something that could be a teachable moment to

1839
01:36:21,600 --> 01:36:23,280
Speaker 8: not let it happen again where the rest can take

1840
01:36:23,280 --> 01:36:24,880
Speaker 8: the game away from you and you just have to

1841
01:36:24,880 --> 01:36:28,080
Speaker 8: outplay the team. But really a lot more support from

1842
01:36:28,080 --> 01:36:31,599
Speaker 8: the beatryter media perspective that I've seen after a crazy

1843
01:36:31,640 --> 01:36:34,679
Speaker 8: scenario maybe in my lifetime, which just tells you again

1844
01:36:35,080 --> 01:36:39,080
Speaker 8: what the change that Dan Campbell has affected for this team,

1845
01:36:39,200 --> 01:36:41,080
Speaker 8: this town, and just the way that people are looking

1846
01:36:41,120 --> 01:36:42,600
Speaker 8: at the line locally Detroit.

1847
01:36:42,320 --> 01:36:46,000
Speaker 2: At least, So we expect Allions to win Sunday. Maybe

1848
01:36:46,040 --> 01:36:48,360
Speaker 2: what you figured, Jared Goff plays maybe as much as

1849
01:36:48,360 --> 01:36:48,799
Speaker 2: a half.

1850
01:36:49,600 --> 01:36:51,559
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think listen, if this is a close game,

1851
01:36:51,640 --> 01:36:53,160
Speaker 8: I think Jared Goff is going to play into the

1852
01:36:53,160 --> 01:36:55,439
Speaker 8: second half. But I would be very surprised if you

1853
01:36:55,439 --> 01:36:57,120
Speaker 8: had a lot of the starters like Amon Ross they

1854
01:36:57,160 --> 01:37:00,639
Speaker 8: brought at games, Jared Goff, Hotchinson, guys like that, later,

1855
01:37:00,760 --> 01:37:01,280
Speaker 8: the third.

1856
01:37:01,160 --> 01:37:02,840
Speaker 9: Core, later in the fourth court. There's no reason to

1857
01:37:03,120 --> 01:37:05,400
Speaker 9: even if it's the two seats still is online. Yeah,

1858
01:37:05,400 --> 01:37:07,240
Speaker 9: I think it's gonna be a nice effort by the

1859
01:37:07,280 --> 01:37:08,360
Speaker 9: Lions home fans.

1860
01:37:08,360 --> 01:37:10,479
Speaker 8: They'll be excited, they'll be fired up after what happened

1861
01:37:10,560 --> 01:37:12,720
Speaker 8: last week in Dallas, and they'll get ready and get

1862
01:37:12,720 --> 01:37:14,439
Speaker 8: this team, you know, going towards the laft.

1863
01:37:15,479 --> 01:37:21,000
Speaker 2: And of course, uh, for purposes of this discussion, let's

1864
01:37:21,040 --> 01:37:25,360
Speaker 2: assume the Lions prevail Sunday and they'll have a home

1865
01:37:25,439 --> 01:37:27,439
Speaker 2: game next week. We don't know if it would be Saturday,

1866
01:37:27,479 --> 01:37:29,240
Speaker 2: Sunday or Monday. Wouldn't that be something it was a

1867
01:37:29,240 --> 01:37:32,400
Speaker 2: Monday night game. It feels like it's trending toward the

1868
01:37:32,479 --> 01:37:37,000
Speaker 2: Rams being the number six seed heading into Detroit. Give

1869
01:37:37,040 --> 01:37:40,200
Speaker 2: your thoughts on that game. I believe the Lions would prevail.

1870
01:37:40,439 --> 01:37:42,640
Speaker 2: I said it earlier in the show, they'd probably be

1871
01:37:42,640 --> 01:37:47,160
Speaker 2: about a three point favorite. But you know, give us

1872
01:37:47,200 --> 01:37:49,240
Speaker 2: your take from the you know, from the from the

1873
01:37:49,600 --> 01:37:52,160
Speaker 2: from in the belly of the Beast in Detroit. How

1874
01:37:52,200 --> 01:37:55,720
Speaker 2: this polarization between Stafford and the fans. And I know

1875
01:37:55,800 --> 01:37:58,760
Speaker 2: some people love him, most love him, but let's face it,

1876
01:37:58,880 --> 01:38:01,400
Speaker 2: he was ten and sixty five against above five hundred teams,

1877
01:38:01,400 --> 01:38:03,360
Speaker 2: never won a playoff game, et cetera, et cetera. You

1878
01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:06,519
Speaker 2: can't you can't divorce yourself from that. Your thoughts on

1879
01:38:06,840 --> 01:38:10,040
Speaker 2: a Rams Lions matchup in the first round of what

1880
01:38:10,080 --> 01:38:12,280
Speaker 2: people could expect, Yeah, a couple of things.

1881
01:38:12,439 --> 01:38:13,880
Speaker 8: I think that as the Lions play of the Rams,

1882
01:38:13,880 --> 01:38:15,400
Speaker 8: that will be the Monday night game for sure.

1883
01:38:15,880 --> 01:38:16,880
Speaker 9: And I was looking at some of.

1884
01:38:16,880 --> 01:38:20,040
Speaker 8: The potential spreads and every every team Packers, Saints, and

1885
01:38:20,880 --> 01:38:23,400
Speaker 8: I'm forgetting the third that could be all seven or

1886
01:38:23,760 --> 01:38:25,599
Speaker 8: more point spreads.

1887
01:38:25,760 --> 01:38:26,360
Speaker 9: Yeah, Seawks.

1888
01:38:26,640 --> 01:38:28,559
Speaker 8: They had only seven or seven and a half point spreads,

1889
01:38:28,640 --> 01:38:31,160
Speaker 8: the Rams the only one under seven. That key number

1890
01:38:31,320 --> 01:38:32,479
Speaker 8: five and a half, four and a half, three and

1891
01:38:32,479 --> 01:38:33,760
Speaker 8: a half, And I'm with you, I can be closer

1892
01:38:33,840 --> 01:38:35,880
Speaker 8: to three and a half four through that key number

1893
01:38:35,880 --> 01:38:39,320
Speaker 8: of three than it would be seven obviously. And and Verdie,

1894
01:38:39,360 --> 01:38:42,679
Speaker 8: I'm someone that four years when matt Stafford was the quarterback.

1895
01:38:42,680 --> 01:38:45,640
Speaker 8: I did those Lions postgame show and pregame shows for

1896
01:38:45,760 --> 01:38:48,559
Speaker 8: years when he was there. I became at one point

1897
01:38:48,680 --> 01:38:50,360
Speaker 8: one of the few you can put him up on

1898
01:38:50,439 --> 01:38:53,479
Speaker 8: a hand media members that cover the team full time

1899
01:38:53,840 --> 01:38:56,840
Speaker 8: that really defended Stafford and said, listen, it's not his fault.

1900
01:38:57,000 --> 01:38:59,680
Speaker 8: I mean, is Stafford accountable? At certain times you can

1901
01:38:59,720 --> 01:39:03,040
Speaker 8: get better. Say I said that bad Arizona game, you know,

1902
01:39:03,280 --> 01:39:05,439
Speaker 8: in the middle of his career in Detroit, and yes,

1903
01:39:05,520 --> 01:39:09,120
Speaker 8: he was definitely accountable, but he had bad teams around him.

1904
01:39:09,360 --> 01:39:12,120
Speaker 8: It wasn't built the right way. He was an incredible quarterback,

1905
01:39:12,160 --> 01:39:13,920
Speaker 8: and we saw what happened with his first year leaving

1906
01:39:13,920 --> 01:39:16,519
Speaker 8: the Lions. He went the freaking Super Bowl. So there

1907
01:39:16,560 --> 01:39:19,040
Speaker 8: won't be booing, but it would be very scary if

1908
01:39:19,040 --> 01:39:22,479
Speaker 8: you're Allions fantasy, Matthew Stafford comeback against the guy he

1909
01:39:22,560 --> 01:39:25,679
Speaker 8: was traded for after doing what he did for Detroit,

1910
01:39:25,880 --> 01:39:27,680
Speaker 8: and then obviously Jared Goff being as good as he

1911
01:39:27,720 --> 01:39:31,599
Speaker 8: has been. The energy is gonna be ridiculous regardless. But

1912
01:39:31,640 --> 01:39:34,559
Speaker 8: if it's the Rams with Stafford coming back on a

1913
01:39:34,640 --> 01:39:37,040
Speaker 8: Monday night playoff game for the first ever playoff game

1914
01:39:37,040 --> 01:39:39,000
Speaker 8: in Fortfield. I don't know how if fans are going

1915
01:39:39,080 --> 01:39:41,680
Speaker 8: to sleep for a week before that happens. I think

1916
01:39:41,720 --> 01:39:43,280
Speaker 8: the Lions are a better team than Rads are n.

1917
01:39:43,240 --> 01:39:44,960
Speaker 9: Their plays in football. They got talking to.

1918
01:39:44,960 --> 01:39:47,160
Speaker 8: Coop, they got a good defense, but in the end,

1919
01:39:47,400 --> 01:39:51,080
Speaker 8: the Lions at home with all that just unbelievable energy

1920
01:39:51,160 --> 01:39:54,600
Speaker 8: and just all the groundswell of this building to a

1921
01:39:54,640 --> 01:39:57,600
Speaker 8: crescendo for the last several years, especially with Campbell, to

1922
01:39:57,640 --> 01:39:59,680
Speaker 8: go over with Brad Holmes, it would be something to

1923
01:39:59,680 --> 01:40:02,559
Speaker 8: be whole. The Wise would win that game, but I

1924
01:40:02,560 --> 01:40:04,240
Speaker 8: think a lot of Light fans are have a lot

1925
01:40:04,280 --> 01:40:07,639
Speaker 8: of trepidation about their old quarterback coming back and playing

1926
01:40:07,640 --> 01:40:09,519
Speaker 8: in that first step playoff game at ford Field.

1927
01:40:09,520 --> 01:40:12,000
Speaker 2: Bernie, Well, that's fair. And of course the last year

1928
01:40:12,040 --> 01:40:13,680
Speaker 2: I did Lions prem and post was oh wait, we

1929
01:40:13,760 --> 01:40:15,160
Speaker 2: know what the record was at in the ear so

1930
01:40:15,200 --> 01:40:18,040
Speaker 2: I know bad. And my only beef with Stafford is

1931
01:40:18,080 --> 01:40:20,280
Speaker 2: the three times he did have good teams, including twenty

1932
01:40:20,360 --> 01:40:23,559
Speaker 2: fourteen where they were number two defense, seven Pro bowlers,

1933
01:40:23,560 --> 01:40:26,519
Speaker 2: Calvin Johnson, they had Dallas beat in the fourth quarter.

1934
01:40:26,560 --> 01:40:28,559
Speaker 2: I know they got the bad call, but he turned

1935
01:40:28,560 --> 01:40:30,720
Speaker 2: the ball over twice in key moments. I just can't

1936
01:40:30,800 --> 01:40:32,320
Speaker 2: let him off the hook. But be that as it may,

1937
01:40:32,400 --> 01:40:35,479
Speaker 2: all your points are valid, and I think it's very objective, Dan,

1938
01:40:35,560 --> 01:40:37,760
Speaker 2: I think we need to do something here if you're

1939
01:40:37,840 --> 01:40:41,479
Speaker 2: open to it. And unprecedented third segment because I got

1940
01:40:41,520 --> 01:40:46,000
Speaker 2: a text Friday from a very well placed source that

1941
01:40:46,280 --> 01:40:50,120
Speaker 2: here in Las Vegas, Mark Davis, it's not a guy,

1942
01:40:50,200 --> 01:40:52,840
Speaker 2: it's not a lock that at Antonio Pierce will will

1943
01:40:52,840 --> 01:40:54,640
Speaker 2: get the job. I'll be at the game Sunday and

1944
01:40:54,680 --> 01:40:57,160
Speaker 2: the media buffet Lions scene if they beat Denver to

1945
01:40:57,320 --> 01:41:00,639
Speaker 2: make his final case. But here's the deal, Dan, Mark

1946
01:41:00,720 --> 01:41:02,840
Speaker 2: Davis has got one big swing in them and it

1947
01:41:02,960 --> 01:41:05,679
Speaker 2: rhymes with Jim Harbaugh. I want to get your thoughts

1948
01:41:05,720 --> 01:41:09,720
Speaker 2: on that, irrespective of whether win lose your draw Monday night,

1949
01:41:10,080 --> 01:41:12,920
Speaker 2: your thoughts on Jim Harbaugh, I know what might? Are

1950
01:41:12,960 --> 01:41:16,240
Speaker 2: you okay? Can you hang for an unprecedent? In the third.

1951
01:41:16,200 --> 01:41:19,360
Speaker 8: Segment, my bid David was upressive, and so of course

1952
01:41:19,400 --> 01:41:19,760
Speaker 8: I did.

1953
01:41:20,000 --> 01:41:22,240
Speaker 2: I knew, I knew that would be your answers. All right,

1954
01:41:22,280 --> 01:41:24,120
Speaker 2: we'll be right back with you, Dan, But first let's

1955

2020
01:44:53,360 --> 01:44:55,760
Speaker 2: back to our guy, Dan Leech kind enough to hang

2021
01:44:55,800 --> 01:45:01,200
Speaker 2: with us. He's in Houston covering the National Championship between

2022
01:45:01,760 --> 01:45:06,960
Speaker 2: Washington and Michigan. Longtime stalwart radio icon in the city

2023
01:45:06,960 --> 01:45:11,440
Speaker 2: of Detroit. Dan, Let's cut to the chase. Jim Harbaugh

2024
01:45:12,720 --> 01:45:14,759
Speaker 2: never got over losing the Super Bowl to his brother.

2025
01:45:15,160 --> 01:45:17,360
Speaker 2: He has one hundred and twenty five million dollar extension.

2026
01:45:17,360 --> 01:45:19,479
Speaker 2: He could have signed it anytime he's elected, not to

2027
01:45:20,160 --> 01:45:24,000
Speaker 2: What do you expect to happen after Jim Harbaugh coaches

2028
01:45:24,120 --> 01:45:24,680
Speaker 2: Monday night?

2029
01:45:25,280 --> 01:45:27,160
Speaker 8: Yeah, I'll tell you this is this Harball. You know,

2030
01:45:27,400 --> 01:45:29,040
Speaker 8: will he should he stay or should he go? Rock

2031
01:45:29,120 --> 01:45:33,440
Speaker 8: to castpot situation debated maybe more than the Bush Corp Election.

2032
01:45:33,200 --> 01:45:34,920
Speaker 9: Of two thousand and in the mood rand.

2033
01:45:35,800 --> 01:45:38,040
Speaker 8: I'll just tell you this, you know, and I know

2034
01:45:38,120 --> 01:45:39,720
Speaker 8: you and I have the shot, say and I talked

2035
01:45:39,720 --> 01:45:41,320
Speaker 8: to this. There's so many different people that you know,

2036
01:45:41,400 --> 01:45:44,160
Speaker 8: cover Michigan on a daily basis, and and and to me,

2037
01:45:44,800 --> 01:45:46,920
Speaker 8: you know, obviously you don't really know. No one really knows.

2038
01:45:46,960 --> 01:45:48,800
Speaker 8: I mean, Harbaugh keeps as close to that and like

2039
01:45:48,880 --> 01:45:51,840
Speaker 8: you said, they could throw the bricks truck of you know,

2040
01:45:51,880 --> 01:45:53,920
Speaker 8: the mood made of cheese with him and give him

2041
01:45:53,960 --> 01:45:56,640
Speaker 8: whatever he wants, win or lose on Monday night, but

2042
01:45:56,880 --> 01:45:59,640
Speaker 8: especially he wins. And to me, and this is I

2043
01:45:59,680 --> 01:46:03,120
Speaker 8: still this way and maybe all up being wrong. I

2044
01:46:03,160 --> 01:46:05,360
Speaker 8: think if he wins, he is staying. I think that

2045
01:46:05,400 --> 01:46:07,320
Speaker 8: if he wins, he should stay that just because I

2046
01:46:07,360 --> 01:46:10,240
Speaker 8: want to see him staying at Arbor. But you you're

2047
01:46:10,320 --> 01:46:13,479
Speaker 8: so right about this. And you know he's yard short

2048
01:46:13,520 --> 01:46:15,240
Speaker 8: and that lights go out in the Super Bowl, in

2049
01:46:15,280 --> 01:46:18,080
Speaker 8: the Supernome, you know, against his brother. He's yard short

2050
01:46:18,120 --> 01:46:20,639
Speaker 8: with Kaepernick and he could have won the Super Bowl.

2051
01:46:20,800 --> 01:46:23,280
Speaker 8: And of course you know Nick Saban, other all time

2052
01:46:23,320 --> 01:46:25,880
Speaker 8: coaches have chased the NFL. It didn't work out for them.

2053
01:46:26,000 --> 01:46:28,120
Speaker 8: It doesn't mean it can't work out for Harbaugh. But

2054
01:46:28,160 --> 01:46:29,840
Speaker 8: when it comes to what he's been able to do

2055
01:46:29,920 --> 01:46:32,840
Speaker 8: in an arbor after I said, you know a little

2056
01:46:32,840 --> 01:46:35,120
Speaker 8: while ago that I was calling for his job, after

2057
01:46:35,120 --> 01:46:37,280
Speaker 8: he was open against these right teams and in the

2058
01:46:37,320 --> 01:46:39,880
Speaker 8: ten biggest games, and you know, losing all the FIDNA, Rune,

2059
01:46:39,880 --> 01:46:42,799
Speaker 8: Ohio State, all these different things, and he's completely turned around.

2060
01:46:43,960 --> 01:46:46,400
Speaker 8: Why would you want to Aside from that, you know,

2061
01:46:46,680 --> 01:46:49,040
Speaker 8: holy Grail of the super Row, which I totally get,

2062
01:46:49,320 --> 01:46:49,720
Speaker 8: leave a.

2063
01:46:49,680 --> 01:46:52,320
Speaker 9: Place where you are not just a god, you're a

2064
01:46:52,439 --> 01:46:53,080
Speaker 9: rock god.

2065
01:46:53,320 --> 01:46:55,599
Speaker 8: You could have whatever money you want, it's not about money.

2066
01:46:56,040 --> 01:46:58,560
Speaker 8: You hate kay and run a program and not have

2067
01:46:58,600 --> 01:47:01,280
Speaker 8: to worry about working with the gm EVE give you focus. Cool,

2068
01:47:01,760 --> 01:47:04,200
Speaker 8: you can do whatever you want to stay in a

2069
01:47:04,320 --> 01:47:05,840
Speaker 8: place for the rest of.

2070
01:47:05,760 --> 01:47:08,320
Speaker 9: Your career and to be honest.

2071
01:47:08,360 --> 01:47:10,360
Speaker 8: The way that Michigan can recruit I think it's.

2072
01:47:10,280 --> 01:47:11,160
Speaker 9: Alumni in the world.

2073
01:47:11,200 --> 01:47:14,280
Speaker 8: Although there's Dowmon money, the nil stuff. You're going to

2074
01:47:14,320 --> 01:47:16,559
Speaker 8: be in the playoff probably every year now with twelve teams.

2075
01:47:16,560 --> 01:47:18,840
Speaker 2: So okay, here's the deal. There, Big Sala, here's the deal.

2076
01:47:19,400 --> 01:47:22,640
Speaker 2: Because let me just jump in quickly. You raise all

2077
01:47:22,720 --> 01:47:25,559
Speaker 2: valid questions. But I knew people that worked at the

2078
01:47:25,560 --> 01:47:28,280
Speaker 2: forty nine ers when Harball left, and he would have

2079
01:47:28,320 --> 01:47:31,479
Speaker 2: gone to Miami with Steven Roski's the Michigan benefactor. Succumb

2080
01:47:31,479 --> 01:47:34,320
Speaker 2: to the Michigan faithful said if you hire and we'll

2081
01:47:34,360 --> 01:47:36,439
Speaker 2: disown you. So he went back to Michigan and it's

2082
01:47:36,479 --> 01:47:40,400
Speaker 2: been a storybook the last three or four years. People

2083
01:47:40,439 --> 01:47:43,639
Speaker 2: don't realize how much. He hated losing the Super Bowl

2084
01:47:43,680 --> 01:47:46,360
Speaker 2: to his brother, and he wants to win a Super Bowl.

2085
01:47:46,479 --> 01:47:49,000
Speaker 2: He can't do that, nan Arbor. Now here's why it's unknoble,

2086
01:47:49,520 --> 01:47:52,400
Speaker 2: because Jim is going to command a contract which may

2087
01:47:52,439 --> 01:47:55,200
Speaker 2: make him the highest paid coach in the NFL for

2088
01:47:55,240 --> 01:47:58,320
Speaker 2: a long period of time, and he's going to command control.

2089
01:47:58,960 --> 01:48:00,880
Speaker 2: The only owner I think that'd be willing to give

2090
01:48:00,880 --> 01:48:02,400
Speaker 2: that to him is Mark Davis. I don't think the

2091
01:48:02,400 --> 01:48:04,439
Speaker 2: spanishs family will. I don't think he's going to the

2092
01:48:04,439 --> 01:48:06,920
Speaker 2: Bears Carolina and said they're not interested. So it's a

2093
01:48:07,000 --> 01:48:09,680
Speaker 2: narrow field. It's not as wide as people think. So

2094
01:48:09,760 --> 01:48:12,120
Speaker 2: if they don't thread the needle and Harbau doesn't get

2095
01:48:12,120 --> 01:48:15,000
Speaker 2: what he wants and he's holding all the cards, I believe,

2096
01:48:15,680 --> 01:48:17,479
Speaker 2: then I think he might stay. But I'm giving it

2097
01:48:17,479 --> 01:48:20,000
Speaker 2: a seventy percenter. But you bring up all good points.

2098
01:48:20,560 --> 01:48:23,080
Speaker 2: But remember if you set him down and talk to him,

2099
01:48:23,120 --> 01:48:26,840
Speaker 2: and you talk. He wants to win a Super Bowl.

2100
01:48:26,920 --> 01:48:30,360
Speaker 2: And two years ago, Dan the planets were the line,

2101
01:48:30,520 --> 01:48:32,800
Speaker 2: he would have taken that Minnesota job. That interview with

2102
01:48:32,840 --> 01:48:36,040
Speaker 2: a Fagasy last year Denver wanted him, Harbaugh said, no,

2103
01:48:36,360 --> 01:48:39,040
Speaker 2: I got forty four seniors coming back. I got JJ McCarthy,

2104
01:48:39,080 --> 01:48:42,599
Speaker 2: got Blake carm blah blah blah. This time the planets

2105
01:48:42,640 --> 01:48:46,400
Speaker 2: are aligned. NFL is interested in him, and you know what,

2106
01:48:46,680 --> 01:48:50,240
Speaker 2: I think he's interested. But I'm not dismissing any of

2107
01:48:50,240 --> 01:48:53,240
Speaker 2: your points. I just want to add that one footnote

2108
01:48:53,520 --> 01:48:55,680
Speaker 2: that he wants to win a Super Bowl more than

2109
01:48:55,720 --> 01:48:56,640
Speaker 2: people realize.

2110
01:48:56,960 --> 01:48:59,040
Speaker 8: Yeah, adding to the layer of that too, you know,

2111
01:48:59,280 --> 01:49:01,559
Speaker 8: wearing out your walk with San Frand how how he's

2112
01:49:01,680 --> 01:49:04,080
Speaker 8: get you know, Temper or whoever in Carolina giving.

2113
01:49:03,960 --> 01:49:04,559
Speaker 9: Him the control.

2114
01:49:04,920 --> 01:49:06,840
Speaker 8: How I don't think that's gonna happen in the NFL

2115
01:49:06,920 --> 01:49:09,479
Speaker 8: is obviously too much different situation than being in charge

2116
01:49:09,479 --> 01:49:11,720
Speaker 8: of a program in college. But that being said, and

2117
01:49:11,720 --> 01:49:13,840
Speaker 8: I'm with you on this, I know how much it

2118
01:49:13,920 --> 01:49:16,040
Speaker 8: hurt him. I know how much he wants that Super Bowl.

2119
01:49:16,080 --> 01:49:17,880
Speaker 8: I know how close you know, obviously we all know

2120
01:49:17,880 --> 01:49:20,160
Speaker 8: how close he got, but how how much he could

2121
01:49:20,160 --> 01:49:20,559
Speaker 8: taste it?

2122
01:49:20,880 --> 01:49:22,920
Speaker 9: And to me, that is the holy Grail.

2123
01:49:23,080 --> 01:49:25,120
Speaker 8: And and like you said, he will he'll does this,

2124
01:49:25,200 --> 01:49:27,639
Speaker 8: hold all the cards, He'll hold all the planets, He'll

2125
01:49:27,680 --> 01:49:30,040
Speaker 8: hold whatever he wants. He'll hold all the khakis for

2126
01:49:30,080 --> 01:49:32,360
Speaker 8: the rest of eternity. So even though he switched with

2127
01:49:32,360 --> 01:49:34,439
Speaker 8: a Cackis take out because I under started winning. But

2128
01:49:34,520 --> 01:49:37,240
Speaker 8: I'll tell you, you know, I just if if I'm

2129
01:49:37,320 --> 01:49:38,880
Speaker 8: Jim hard Well, but obviously I'm not. And I wish

2130
01:49:38,960 --> 01:49:40,800
Speaker 8: I was because I have a lot of money, a

2131
01:49:40,920 --> 01:49:43,560
Speaker 8: chance to win national title on Monday. But I was

2132
01:49:43,720 --> 01:49:46,600
Speaker 8: just the comfortability and the ability to be such a

2133
01:49:46,640 --> 01:49:50,080
Speaker 8: success for years and years in ann Arbor as opposed

2134
01:49:50,120 --> 01:49:52,200
Speaker 8: to going back to the NFL. And yeah, maybe he

2135
01:49:52,200 --> 01:49:54,200
Speaker 8: wins the super Bowl, or maybe he goes back in

2136
01:49:54,240 --> 01:49:56,479
Speaker 8: two three years later he's out of a job, and

2137
01:49:56,520 --> 01:49:57,080
Speaker 8: then what do you do?

2138
01:49:57,240 --> 01:49:58,360
Speaker 9: You're not going back to Michigan.

2139
01:49:58,560 --> 01:50:01,400
Speaker 8: Maybe he's done then, So I mean a hardball. He's

2140
01:50:01,400 --> 01:50:03,479
Speaker 8: not like he's old, but he's not a spring Chicken anymore.

2141
01:50:03,800 --> 01:50:06,160
Speaker 8: And to me, it just seems like why would you

2142
01:50:06,200 --> 01:50:07,880
Speaker 8: want to This is not just be you know, someone

2143
01:50:08,080 --> 01:50:10,519
Speaker 8: that's a Michigan fan saying don't leave, don't leave. In

2144
01:50:10,680 --> 01:50:13,080
Speaker 8: just football wise, I get why he would want to

2145
01:50:13,080 --> 01:50:16,080
Speaker 8: do it, but I think that the path is so

2146
01:50:16,200 --> 01:50:19,040
Speaker 8: much easier to seeing at Arbor, with all the advantages

2147
01:50:19,080 --> 01:50:19,280
Speaker 8: you have.

2148
01:50:19,640 --> 01:50:21,599
Speaker 2: I don't think he's looking for easy I don't think

2149
01:50:21,600 --> 01:50:24,320
Speaker 2: he's looking for easy But listen, let's do this. Dan

2150
01:50:24,560 --> 01:50:29,519
Speaker 2: as always stellar stuff. You correctly predicted Michigan would beat

2151
01:50:29,520 --> 01:50:34,439
Speaker 2: Alabama last week. If your prediction is correct and mine

2152
01:50:34,520 --> 01:50:37,360
Speaker 2: is wrong and Michigan prevails, let's get you back on

2153
01:50:37,479 --> 01:50:41,559
Speaker 2: again next weekend, because we'll be talking Lions playoffs and

2154
01:50:41,600 --> 01:50:45,160
Speaker 2: you'll be celebrating your Michigan championship. In the meantime, you

2155
01:50:45,280 --> 01:50:46,439
Speaker 2: enjoy yourself in Houston.

2156
01:50:46,479 --> 01:50:49,280
Speaker 8: Buddy, I love it, I love you, and I think

2157
01:50:49,280 --> 01:50:51,759
Speaker 8: the loser also should have to buy a Vegas buffet

2158
01:50:51,960 --> 01:50:52,960
Speaker 8: to the winner next week.

2159
01:50:53,479 --> 01:50:56,479
Speaker 2: It's a deal. It's a deal. I just I know

2160
01:50:56,600 --> 01:50:58,280
Speaker 2: just the one to take it to. We're all good,

2161
01:50:58,640 --> 01:51:02,200
Speaker 2: Dan Leech ninety seven to one, Detroit, the Detroit Legend.

2162
01:51:02,200 --> 01:51:04,479
Speaker 2: Thanks so much. Get some rest, my friend, Thank you

2163
01:51:04,520 --> 01:51:04,880
Speaker 2: so much.

2164
01:51:04,880 --> 01:51:06,360
Speaker 9: Pleasure on all mind, my friend.

2165
01:51:06,680 --> 01:51:11,720
Speaker 2: All right, appreciate that Dan's an interesting guy. By the way,

2166
01:51:12,439 --> 01:51:16,519
Speaker 2: I should, I should touch upon this because it's not

2167
01:51:16,640 --> 01:51:21,479
Speaker 2: just Jim Harbaugh who is who may be looking for

2168
01:51:21,560 --> 01:51:24,640
Speaker 2: a coaching job next year. There are lots of coordinators

2169
01:51:25,479 --> 01:51:28,880
Speaker 2: there is There are ex NFL head coaches, even a

2170
01:51:28,920 --> 01:51:32,679
Speaker 2: guy in New England that rhymes with Belichick. He may

2171
01:51:32,720 --> 01:51:37,280
Speaker 2: be looking for a new job next year. Let's breeze

2172
01:51:37,280 --> 01:51:40,400
Speaker 2: through the top ten candidates of who will get the

2173
01:51:40,439 --> 01:51:42,840
Speaker 2: most run. Right now, there are three openings. I think

2174
01:51:42,880 --> 01:51:44,479
Speaker 2: there could be as many as eight. There could even

2175
01:51:44,520 --> 01:51:48,600
Speaker 2: be as many as ten. Football fans be sure to

Speaker 2: Sensation sweep in the nation. You know you love it,

2189
01:52:27,160 --> 01:52:29,360
Speaker 2: you can't live without it? What kind of brand new

2190
01:52:29,400 --> 01:52:34,120
Speaker 2: fool are you? Followed by what my name, So Jim

2191
01:52:34,160 --> 01:52:37,400
Speaker 2: Harball obviously will be a hot topic of conversation in

2192
01:52:37,400 --> 01:52:39,040
Speaker 2: the next couple of weeks. As we know there are

2193
01:52:39,040 --> 01:52:42,519
Speaker 2: at least three openings right now in the National Football League.

2194
01:52:42,560 --> 01:52:44,360
Speaker 2: I believe there could be as many as eight, maybe

2195
01:52:44,400 --> 01:52:47,320
Speaker 2: as many as ten. We'll have to see how it

2196
01:52:47,439 --> 01:52:53,080
Speaker 2: plays out, and it will play out relatively quickly in

2197
01:52:53,120 --> 01:52:57,080
Speaker 2: the next few days, so it's not just Harball to

2198
01:52:57,200 --> 01:53:00,599
Speaker 2: be talked about. There is a strong possible ability that

2199
01:53:00,680 --> 01:53:04,920
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick may be coaching his last name several last

2200
01:53:04,960 --> 01:53:09,280
Speaker 2: game several hours from now in New England. Make no mistake,

2201
01:53:09,520 --> 01:53:14,280
Speaker 2: Belichick maybe seventy one. He has had dual responsibilities in

2202
01:53:14,280 --> 01:53:18,440
Speaker 2: New England forever as their head coaching GM handling player personnel.

2203
01:53:19,320 --> 01:53:22,000
Speaker 2: Will remains to be seen if he gets a new

2204
01:53:22,040 --> 01:53:24,519
Speaker 2: gig whether the new owner will allow him to do that,

2205
01:53:25,080 --> 01:53:29,680
Speaker 2: But make no mistake, he would bring any organization he

2206
01:53:29,840 --> 01:53:33,800
Speaker 2: gets to instant credibility and he will garner attention. Another

2207
01:53:33,800 --> 01:53:36,160
Speaker 2: guy who's going to garner attention as he's been singing

2208
01:53:36,160 --> 01:53:40,520
Speaker 2: the praises for the Lions, Ben Johnson, their all offensive coordinator.

2209
01:53:41,120 --> 01:53:44,559
Speaker 2: He appears to be the top candidate in this cycle

2210
01:53:45,040 --> 01:53:49,080
Speaker 2: and likely could have gotten himself a head coaching job

2211
01:53:49,560 --> 01:53:52,760
Speaker 2: last season as well. However, he's decided to stick with

2212
01:53:52,800 --> 01:53:55,720
Speaker 2: the Lions, and his stock has only gone up this year.

2213
01:53:55,760 --> 01:53:58,639
Speaker 2: He's thirty seven years old. He coaches the offensive side

2214
01:53:58,640 --> 01:54:01,360
Speaker 2: of the ball. That's the hot trend in the NFL now.

2215
01:54:01,600 --> 01:54:04,640
Speaker 2: Twelve of the fourteen playoff teams that are if the

2216
01:54:04,680 --> 01:54:07,240
Speaker 2: season ended today, that are being the playoffs, they have

2217
01:54:07,400 --> 01:54:10,719
Speaker 2: coaches that have come from the offensive side of the ball.

2218
01:54:10,840 --> 01:54:13,840
Speaker 2: And the Lions are nineteen and seven the last two years.

2219
01:54:14,120 --> 01:54:16,519
Speaker 2: And make no mistake, he's a big part of that.

2220
01:54:16,680 --> 01:54:21,000
Speaker 2: Ben Johnson, with that offense he runs, I'm kind of

2221
01:54:21,000 --> 01:54:23,120
Speaker 2: sticking to my guns. They gave it a seventy percenter

2222
01:54:23,520 --> 01:54:25,839
Speaker 2: that hardball ends up in the NFL. That's the intent.

2223
01:54:26,280 --> 01:54:28,760
Speaker 2: Could be the Chargers, could be the Raiders. I don't know,

2224
01:54:28,840 --> 01:54:32,080
Speaker 2: and maybe he doesn't, but he's flirted with the NFL

2225
01:54:32,080 --> 01:54:35,320
Speaker 2: over the last few years, and this year the stars

2226
01:54:35,320 --> 01:54:38,920
Speaker 2: are aligned, all right? And why would he hire Don Yee,

2227
01:54:38,960 --> 01:54:43,200
Speaker 2: a power agent who represents Tom Brady and Sean Payton.

2228
01:54:43,200 --> 01:54:46,480
Speaker 2: Helped Sean Payton get that big deal in Denver last year.

2229
01:54:46,920 --> 01:54:48,640
Speaker 2: He didn't just hire him this last week. He hired

2230
01:54:48,720 --> 01:54:52,320
Speaker 2: him weeks ago, just wasn't reported until this last week.

2231
01:54:52,840 --> 01:54:56,440
Speaker 2: He's got the Wolverines playing for a national championship. He's

2232
01:54:56,440 --> 01:54:59,040
Speaker 2: got one hundred and twenty five million dollars contract extension

2233
01:54:59,440 --> 01:55:02,400
Speaker 2: sitting there waiting for him. He hasn't signed it. Why not?

2234
01:55:02,440 --> 01:55:05,120
Speaker 2: He could have signed it anytime you want it. Harbaugh

2235
01:55:05,400 --> 01:55:07,960
Speaker 2: will always be a mystery. We can do his go

2236
01:55:08,000 --> 01:55:10,480
Speaker 2: with the percentages. I say, certainly there's a chance he

2237
01:55:10,520 --> 01:55:12,640
Speaker 2: stays at Michigan, and I gave it a thirty percent chance.

2238
01:55:13,120 --> 01:55:16,280
Speaker 2: We'll see what happens this year. The stars appear to

2239
01:55:16,360 --> 01:55:19,880
Speaker 2: be aligned. Another offensive coordinator that's garnered a lot of

2240
01:55:19,920 --> 01:55:23,840
Speaker 2: attention Brian Johnson of the Philadelphia Eagles. I know the

2241
01:55:23,880 --> 01:55:27,800
Speaker 2: Eagles have stumbled a bit this year. This is the

2242
01:55:27,840 --> 01:55:30,320
Speaker 2: first year he's in that role as an offensive coordinator.

2243
01:55:30,360 --> 01:55:33,120
Speaker 2: Remember Shane Stiken left, he was the quarterbacks coach the

2244
01:55:33,160 --> 01:55:36,480
Speaker 2: last couple of years. Again, thirty six years old. Considered

2245
01:55:36,480 --> 01:55:39,160
Speaker 2: an ideal candidate for a guy who could nurture a

2246
01:55:39,160 --> 01:55:43,000
Speaker 2: young quarterback, one guy who I think could very well

2247
01:55:43,080 --> 01:55:46,800
Speaker 2: end up getting the Chargers job as dan Quinn. Dan

2248
01:55:47,000 --> 01:55:49,560
Speaker 2: is a former NFL coach. Obviously, you remember him as

2249
01:55:49,560 --> 01:55:52,520
Speaker 2: the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons. He led the

2250
01:55:52,520 --> 01:55:55,720
Speaker 2: Falcons the Super Bowl fifty one. Yes, they coughed up

2251
01:55:55,760 --> 01:55:58,520
Speaker 2: that twenty eight to three lead, but dan Quinn is

2252
01:55:58,520 --> 01:56:01,360
Speaker 2: still the type of guy who can who can bring

2253
01:56:01,480 --> 01:56:05,720
Speaker 2: more semblance of order to the charters than their prior

2254
01:56:05,840 --> 01:56:09,360
Speaker 2: coach had. And he's likable and he comes from the

2255
01:56:09,400 --> 01:56:13,240
Speaker 2: defensive side of the ball. But his defense in Dallas

2256
01:56:13,280 --> 01:56:16,000
Speaker 2: has gotten accolades in the last couple of years. Speaking

2257
01:56:16,000 --> 01:56:18,640
Speaker 2: of a guy who's also got all kinds of accolades

2258
01:56:18,960 --> 01:56:22,560
Speaker 2: for his defense, lou Anarumo the Cincinnati Bengals. He was

2259
01:56:23,160 --> 01:56:27,240
Speaker 2: maybe not quite as responsible as Joe Burrow for helping

2260
01:56:27,240 --> 01:56:30,240
Speaker 2: the Bengals get to the Super Bowl two years ago,

2261
01:56:30,520 --> 01:56:31,960
Speaker 2: and they almost had the Rams.

2262
01:56:31,720 --> 01:56:40,920
Speaker 14: Beat, but he here's a guy that clearly has has

2263
01:56:41,040 --> 01:56:45,760
Speaker 14: created and and and presided over defenses that execute and

2264
01:56:45,920 --> 01:56:48,760
Speaker 14: our physical and get after the quarterback and their very

2265
01:56:48,800 --> 01:56:49,720
Speaker 14: assimon sound.

2266
01:56:50,240 --> 01:56:52,879
Speaker 2: And he was the runner up for the Arizona Cardinals

2267
01:56:53,000 --> 01:56:55,880
Speaker 2: job last year. He lost out to Jonathan Gannon. He's

2268
01:56:55,880 --> 01:56:58,720
Speaker 2: been a top five candidate in the past. I'm not

2269
01:56:58,880 --> 01:57:04,000
Speaker 2: sure if his stops. He's fallen because of Cincinnati's struggles defensively.

2270
01:57:04,400 --> 01:57:08,000
Speaker 2: But here's a guy that's still gonna get consideration. Another

2271
01:57:08,040 --> 01:57:10,800
Speaker 2: guy the offensive coordinator for the Houston Texans. You probably

2272
01:57:10,840 --> 01:57:13,440
Speaker 2: haven't heard of this guy, Bobby Sloweck. He's only thirty

2273
01:57:13,440 --> 01:57:18,080
Speaker 2: six years old, offensive minded coach. He's been in the

2274
01:57:18,120 --> 01:57:22,200
Speaker 2: league ten years. He's had NFL jobs for ten years, clearly,

2275
01:57:22,440 --> 01:57:25,320
Speaker 2: and you've heard me singing the praise as a c J. Stroud. Well,

2276
01:57:25,360 --> 01:57:31,160
Speaker 2: Bobby Slowick has a real hand in working wonders with

2277
01:57:31,200 --> 01:57:33,800
Speaker 2: c J. Stroud. They're in the freaking playoffs. Man, they

2278
01:57:33,840 --> 01:57:37,160
Speaker 2: won three games last year. Stroud the odds on favorite

2279
01:57:37,200 --> 01:57:40,240
Speaker 2: to an offensive Rookie of the Year, and that alone

2280
01:57:40,240 --> 01:57:43,360
Speaker 2: will garner Slowick in terms of his attention getting it

2281
01:57:44,360 --> 01:57:47,920
Speaker 2: serious consideration across the league. Jared Mayo, who's currently the

2282
01:57:47,960 --> 01:57:51,480
Speaker 2: inside linebackers coach in New England. It'll be fascinating to

2283
01:57:51,520 --> 01:57:56,040
Speaker 2: see if first Belichick leaves and secondly, if they stand

2284
01:57:56,120 --> 01:57:59,640
Speaker 2: house and hired Jared Mayo, he would be the top candidate.

2285
01:58:00,640 --> 01:58:03,240
Speaker 2: But if they decide to retain Belichick, it'll be curious

2286
01:58:03,240 --> 01:58:07,680
Speaker 2: to see if Mayo perhaps interviews for other head coaching

2287
01:58:07,800 --> 01:58:11,120
Speaker 2: jobs outside of New England. He got an extension from

2288
01:58:11,160 --> 01:58:13,480
Speaker 2: Robert Kraft a couple years ago to stay in New England,

2289
01:58:13,640 --> 01:58:17,240
Speaker 2: and so he declined to interview for head coaching jobs

2290
01:58:17,480 --> 01:58:19,880
Speaker 2: in the last couple of years, But that situation could change.

2291
01:58:19,880 --> 01:58:22,800
Speaker 2: I still think it's ninety percent Belichick's gone. That leaves,

2292
01:58:22,800 --> 01:58:25,480
Speaker 2: of course, Brian Flores of the defensive coordinator of the

2293
01:58:25,560 --> 01:58:29,480
Speaker 2: Vikings in Eric Penemy. I think the Chargers would do

2294
01:58:29,520 --> 01:58:32,280
Speaker 2: well to interview Eric Penemy and perhaps even hire him.

2295
01:58:32,600 --> 01:58:35,880
Speaker 2: All right, it's time, I think, and I like what

2296
01:58:36,000 --> 01:58:38,720
Speaker 2: b Enemy has done in Washington, even though they haven't flourished.

2297
01:58:39,200 --> 01:58:41,480
Speaker 2: I like the cut of his jib, and he deserves

2298
01:58:41,480 --> 01:58:44,760
Speaker 2: serious consideration. All right, coming up? What kind of brand

2312
01:59:29,560 --> 01:59:34,080
Speaker 2: well they do things that oftentimes, well they get your attention.

2313
01:59:34,880 --> 01:59:39,320
Speaker 2: Sometimes they're innocuous, just silly, stupid, bad judgment. Other times

2314
01:59:39,320 --> 01:59:42,520
Speaker 2: it can be far more serious. Other times it could

2315
01:59:42,520 --> 01:59:47,200
Speaker 2: be well criminal, could land you in jail. But any

2316
01:59:47,320 --> 01:59:52,560
Speaker 2: way you slice it, any way that you characterize it,

2317
01:59:53,000 --> 01:59:57,120
Speaker 2: any way that you describe these events, they always leave

2318
01:59:57,160 --> 02:00:00,600
Speaker 2: you scratching your head and asking yourself, a brand new

2319
02:00:00,600 --> 02:00:01,000
Speaker 2: fool of you?

2320
02:00:07,160 --> 02:00:09,760
Speaker 6: So what kind of brand new fool are you?

2321
02:00:10,280 --> 02:00:12,360
Speaker 2: So here we go. This one is kind of short

2322
02:00:12,360 --> 02:00:14,400
Speaker 2: and sweet, but I got to tell you I found

2323
02:00:14,400 --> 02:00:19,720
Speaker 2: it to be very distinctive. We take you to Washington County, Oregon.

2324
02:00:20,480 --> 02:00:22,720
Speaker 2: Say hello to a gentleman by the name of Christian

2325
02:00:22,960 --> 02:00:28,240
Speaker 2: Larial Castillo. Now he is not a murderer. I mean,

2326
02:00:28,320 --> 02:00:31,840
Speaker 2: you know, assassinators like John Wilkes Booth and Lee Harvey

2327
02:00:31,840 --> 02:00:33,920
Speaker 2: Oswall have three names. He's got three names. Adn't do

2328
02:00:33,920 --> 02:00:37,000
Speaker 2: anything like that, okay, but what he did wasn't real

2329
02:00:37,360 --> 02:00:43,200
Speaker 2: smart either. Around four thirty am recently, deputies were called

2330
02:00:43,200 --> 02:00:46,800
Speaker 2: to a residence on the eighteen thousand block of Shadow

2331
02:00:46,840 --> 02:00:51,520
Speaker 2: Lane in Washington County, Oregon because the resident reported that

2332
02:00:52,120 --> 02:00:58,040
Speaker 2: he believed that someone had been an intruder at his house. Well,

2333
02:00:58,400 --> 02:01:02,120
Speaker 2: sure enough, upon arrivals, deputy searched the place and they

2334
02:01:02,120 --> 02:01:07,440
Speaker 2: had a hard time finding this individual. Well he somebody

2335
02:01:07,520 --> 02:01:10,640
Speaker 2: must have been in there, because they had ransacked the

2336
02:01:10,720 --> 02:01:15,040
Speaker 2: place quite thoroughly, quietly, barely woke the residence up in

2337
02:01:15,080 --> 02:01:19,120
Speaker 2: an attempt to look to steal valuables. And the one

2338
02:01:19,120 --> 02:01:21,840
Speaker 2: thing the deputies were able to determine is that mister

2339
02:01:21,920 --> 02:01:27,080
Speaker 2: Castillo entered the residence through a locked door. I checked

2340
02:01:27,080 --> 02:01:30,120
Speaker 2: that an unlocked door. Excuse me, So here's the deal.

2341
02:01:31,040 --> 02:01:35,120
Speaker 2: What makes this so crazy? Well, apparently mister villar Real

2342
02:01:35,640 --> 02:01:38,720
Speaker 2: must have got her a little tired during his escapade,

2343
02:01:38,800 --> 02:01:42,160
Speaker 2: because the deputies finally found him in the last place

2344
02:01:42,880 --> 02:01:49,400
Speaker 2: they looked. Yeah, he was sleeping on the couch. Actually

2345
02:01:49,520 --> 02:01:54,560
Speaker 2: done mark, Well, he was taken into custody when he

2346
02:01:54,600 --> 02:01:56,880
Speaker 2: got there. Deputies did found something, They find some things.

2347
02:01:56,920 --> 02:01:59,400
Speaker 2: They found numerous atoms such as a portable GPS, a

2348
02:01:59,400 --> 02:02:02,680
Speaker 2: bunch of other like tronics that actually, believe it or not,

2349
02:02:04,120 --> 02:02:06,200
Speaker 2: didn't belong to the family that lived in that house,

2350
02:02:06,200 --> 02:02:09,160
Speaker 2: so he stole them elsewhere. Dude's got a body of

2351
02:02:09,200 --> 02:02:12,120
Speaker 2: works anyway. His bill was set at one hundred thousand

2352
02:02:12,160 --> 02:02:15,360
Speaker 2: dollars and there's plenty of other charges pending as the

2353
02:02:15,400 --> 02:02:18,800
Speaker 2: investigation continues. So imagine that a catbird were sneaking in.

2354
02:02:19,440 --> 02:02:22,160
Speaker 2: They find stuff on him they sold from he stole

2355
02:02:22,200 --> 02:02:25,120
Speaker 2: from another residence. They find him sleeping on the couch.

2356
02:02:25,360 --> 02:02:28,760
Speaker 2: Well we know he's sleeping now the Washington County jail,

2357
02:02:29,440 --> 02:02:32,400
Speaker 2: Mister Christian Villary alcus to you, what kind of brand

2358
02:02:32,440 --> 02:02:39,840
Speaker 2: new fool of your Thanks Mark all right, Shay Morgan guard,

2359
02:02:39,960 --> 02:02:44,280
Speaker 2: appreciate you sitting in tonight pinch hitting for Patrick in

2360
02:02:44,320 --> 02:02:47,480
Speaker 2: the slot. Great job as always, my friend, and you've

2361
02:02:47,480 --> 02:02:50,400
Speaker 2: done this before. You did a fine job. What have

2362
02:02:50,480 --> 02:02:52,520
Speaker 2: you got for tonight in the brand new fool department?

2363
02:02:52,880 --> 02:02:54,880
Speaker 12: So I like going to Florida. We're going to go

2364
02:02:54,920 --> 02:02:56,240
Speaker 12: back to Florida fair enough.

2365
02:02:56,640 --> 02:02:59,600
Speaker 11: A Florida woman was arrested this week when she made

2366
02:02:59,640 --> 02:03:02,200
Speaker 11: the bad decision to call police to report a friend

2367
02:03:02,480 --> 02:03:03,960
Speaker 11: what stolen her marijuana.

2368
02:03:04,400 --> 02:03:05,320
Speaker 2: Not only.

2369
02:03:06,960 --> 02:03:09,960
Speaker 11: Not only did she have marijuana with her when cops arrive,

2370
02:03:10,200 --> 02:03:13,120
Speaker 11: but they also found out she had two outstanding warrants.

2371
02:03:14,160 --> 02:03:17,160
Speaker 11: According to a police report, Sewer police responded to a

2372
02:03:17,200 --> 02:03:20,480
Speaker 11: call about stolen property at a Best Western hotel. When

2373
02:03:20,520 --> 02:03:23,320
Speaker 11: they arrived, they found Lily Rinker, who gave them the

2374
02:03:23,360 --> 02:03:26,840
Speaker 11: play by play how the theft went down. Rinker was

2375
02:03:26,920 --> 02:03:29,640
Speaker 11: hanging out with her friend Carlos, whom she had known

2376
02:03:29,720 --> 02:03:33,440
Speaker 11: for only a week, at the Best Western hotel. During

2377
02:03:33,480 --> 02:03:36,040
Speaker 11: the time they hung out, she had approximately thirty dollars

2378
02:03:36,080 --> 02:03:40,280
Speaker 11: worth of marijuana. After Carlos left, she looked She looked

2379
02:03:40,280 --> 02:03:42,600
Speaker 11: in her bag and believed about a half gram was missing.

2380
02:03:42,680 --> 02:03:45,120
Speaker 11: The only thing she could think to do, which was

2381
02:03:45,160 --> 02:03:47,360
Speaker 11: the wrong thing to do at the time, obviously, was

2382
02:03:47,360 --> 02:03:50,360
Speaker 11: to call the police. The police officer asked Rinker for

2383
02:03:50,400 --> 02:03:52,840
Speaker 11: some identification, only to find out that she had two

2384
02:03:52,880 --> 02:03:57,120
Speaker 11: outstanding warrants. Rinker was taken to the Martin County Jail

2385
02:03:57,200 --> 02:04:00,320
Speaker 11: and is now being held with no bond. So that

2386
02:04:00,400 --> 02:04:05,000
Speaker 11: lets me lead to say, a Rinker, what kind of fool.

2387
02:04:04,720 --> 02:04:08,400
Speaker 2: Are you outstanding? That's a that's a really good one.

2388
02:04:08,440 --> 02:04:10,920
Speaker 2: Had a lot of moving parts. I like the motel

2389
02:04:11,080 --> 02:04:13,400
Speaker 2: throw it in there. I'm just mildly curious. Do we

2390
02:04:13,520 --> 02:04:16,080
Speaker 2: know is Florida a state where marijuana is even legal?

2391
02:04:16,320 --> 02:04:17,920
Speaker 2: I'm not because they're not legal in every state.

2392
02:04:18,560 --> 02:04:20,040
Speaker 12: I can look that up real quick right now.

2393
02:04:20,080 --> 02:04:22,960
Speaker 2: But here's why that's so interesting, Because if it's legal

2394
02:04:23,000 --> 02:04:25,360
Speaker 2: there and it was stolen, you know, okay, you call

2395
02:04:25,360 --> 02:04:28,240
Speaker 2: the cops, that's not real smart. But if it's illegal,

2396
02:04:28,280 --> 02:04:28,920
Speaker 2: it was so anyway.

2397
02:04:28,960 --> 02:04:32,760
Speaker 12: Anyway, it's illegal. It's illegal, So that makes your story

2398
02:04:32,800 --> 02:04:34,120
Speaker 12: even better. It's even better.

2399
02:04:34,200 --> 02:04:39,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, good job, shake good detail. All right, Kevin Wire

2400
02:04:39,120 --> 02:04:40,720
Speaker 2: at the chef, you've done this before. What do you

2401
02:04:40,760 --> 02:04:42,000
Speaker 2: got for us tonight? All right?

2402
02:04:42,440 --> 02:04:45,440
Speaker 6: So we go to Alabama, where a man crashed his

2403
02:04:45,560 --> 02:04:49,400
Speaker 6: car outside a bass Pro shop, stripped naked, and plunged

2404
02:04:49,480 --> 02:04:54,120
Speaker 6: into the giant aquarium inside the store. According to Lee

2405
02:04:54,280 --> 02:04:58,720
Speaker 6: the Leeds Police Department. He said that the unidentified man

2406
02:04:58,840 --> 02:05:01,640
Speaker 6: had intentionally a pole in the parking lot with his

2407
02:05:01,680 --> 02:05:04,280
Speaker 6: family in the car. He then ran inside, took off

2408
02:05:04,320 --> 02:05:07,480
Speaker 6: his clothes and did a cannonball leap into the aquarium

2409
02:05:07,880 --> 02:05:09,840
Speaker 6: and then stood under a waterfall. He left the water

2410
02:05:09,880 --> 02:05:12,480
Speaker 6: to yell at two officers and then go back into

2411
02:05:12,520 --> 02:05:15,560
Speaker 6: the aquarium. That man eventually climbed over the side of

2412
02:05:15,600 --> 02:05:18,440
Speaker 6: the aquarium and fell to the concrete floor below, and

2413
02:05:18,440 --> 02:05:21,760
Speaker 6: that's when a police apprehended him. So the man taking

2414
02:05:21,800 --> 02:05:25,480
Speaker 6: into custody and is charged with public lewdness, disorderly conduct,

2415
02:05:25,520 --> 02:05:28,560
Speaker 6: assault in the second degree, resisting arrests, two counts of

2416
02:05:28,600 --> 02:05:33,200
Speaker 6: reckless endangerment, and two counts of criminal mischiefs. So, unidentified

2417
02:05:33,280 --> 02:05:36,920
Speaker 6: man in Alabama, what kind of brand new fool are you?

2418
02:05:37,600 --> 02:05:39,360
Speaker 12: That's a big story, all right?

2419
02:05:40,000 --> 02:05:45,960
Speaker 2: Did so he landed on concrete? Was there there injuries?

2420
02:05:46,000 --> 02:05:46,560
Speaker 6: It doesn't matter.

2421
02:05:46,760 --> 02:05:48,560
Speaker 2: Guy's got a hard head, probably landing on his head,

2422
02:05:48,600 --> 02:05:49,400
Speaker 2: doesn't that?

2423
02:05:49,640 --> 02:05:49,960
Speaker 10: All right?

2424
02:05:50,000 --> 02:05:53,040
Speaker 2: Good job Shaye, Good job Kevin. Of course, another rising

2425
02:05:53,160 --> 02:05:55,640
Speaker 2: edition of brand new fool in the books, which leads

2426
02:05:55,680 --> 02:05:57,880
Speaker 2: us to our second favorite bit, which we levely refer

2427
02:05:57,960 --> 02:06:03,000
Speaker 2: to as what my name? All right? I now currently

2428
02:06:03,080 --> 02:06:07,160

2448

2449
02:06:59,520 --> 02:07:04,880
Speaker 2: All right. Before the college football semi final game last week,

2450
02:07:04,960 --> 02:07:08,640
Speaker 2: I was the last Michigan quarterback to beat Alabama in

2451
02:07:08,680 --> 02:07:11,400
Speaker 2: a bull game. Shaan Mogangar. What my name?

2452
02:07:14,240 --> 02:07:14,880
Speaker 12: Andy Luck?

2453
02:07:15,760 --> 02:07:20,200
Speaker 2: And I thought he went to Stanford, But you know,

2454
02:07:20,240 --> 02:07:22,440
Speaker 2: I got a few holes in my game. All right.

2455
02:07:22,720 --> 02:07:26,680
Speaker 2: Before the college football semi final last game, semi final

2456
02:07:26,720 --> 02:07:30,000
Speaker 2: game last week, I was the last Michigan quarterback to

02:07:30,040 --> 02:07:32,080
Speaker 2: beat Alabama. Mark Ramsey What my name?

2458
02:07:34,520 --> 02:07:36,000
Speaker 6: Could it be Jim Harball.

2459
02:07:36,840 --> 02:07:39,880
Speaker 2: Hey, that's a damn good guess. That's a damn good guess.

2460
02:07:39,880 --> 02:07:42,240
Speaker 2: Harball was the starting quarterback for two years in Michigan

2461
02:07:42,240 --> 02:07:45,280
Speaker 2: in the eighties, but not Jim Harbaugh. Before the college

2462
02:07:45,280 --> 02:07:48,120
Speaker 2: football semi final last week, I was the last quarterback

2463
02:07:48,160 --> 02:07:51,640
Speaker 2: to beat Alabama as a Michigan starting quarterback, Kevin Wyre.

2464
02:07:51,720 --> 02:07:54,200
Speaker 6: What my name I'm gonna get as Tom Brady.

2465
02:07:54,040 --> 02:07:58,640
Speaker 2: Tom Brady nineteen ninety nine. He had to come back

2466
02:07:58,680 --> 02:08:01,200
Speaker 2: from a two touchdown depth. It was Brady's final college

2467
02:08:01,240 --> 02:08:05,360
Speaker 2: football game. I cover that team, all right. This is

2468
02:08:05,400 --> 02:08:07,640
Speaker 2: the name of a team. I do this every once

2469
02:08:07,640 --> 02:08:11,040
Speaker 2: in a while because I think it's noteworthy. This past week,

2470
02:08:11,960 --> 02:08:15,960
Speaker 2: we became the first NBA team to actually violate the

2471
02:08:16,040 --> 02:08:19,000
Speaker 2: load management rule and get a fine. Sham oven Guard.

2472
02:08:19,200 --> 02:08:24,680
Speaker 2: What my name? It's a team the.

2473
02:08:24,360 --> 02:08:27,200
Speaker 6: Bucks, not the Bucks.

2474
02:08:28,520 --> 02:08:31,880
Speaker 2: I'm the first NBA team to violate the load management rule?

2475
02:08:32,600 --> 02:08:35,640
Speaker 2: Mark Ramsey, What my name? Team?

2476
02:08:35,680 --> 02:08:37,560
Speaker 6: San Antonio Spurs.

2477
02:08:37,520 --> 02:08:41,040
Speaker 2: Sick good guess? Bucks Spurs good Guesses? Not them, because

2478
02:08:41,080 --> 02:08:43,400
Speaker 2: you have those are good guesses because they have stars

2479
02:08:43,840 --> 02:08:47,000
Speaker 2: and they do load manage. For the first NBA team

2480
02:08:47,040 --> 02:08:50,360
Speaker 2: to violate the load management rule and get fined. It's

2481
02:08:50,400 --> 02:08:52,080
Speaker 2: a new rule they put in this year. Kevin Wire,

2482
02:08:52,200 --> 02:08:55,360
Speaker 2: what my team name? The Brooklyn Nexts you got it?

2483
02:08:55,960 --> 02:09:00,960
Speaker 2: Reported on these Fox airwaves Thursday night. Yes, Yes, that

2484
02:09:01,160 --> 02:09:03,120
Speaker 2: is so random. I feel like, what are they load managing?

2485
02:09:03,200 --> 02:09:14,840
Speaker 2: Nick Claxton's apparently is good stuff. Aparent Hey, hey, plus

2486
02:09:14,840 --> 02:09:17,840
Speaker 2: for coming out with Nick Claxton. Apparently, as the NBA

2487
02:09:18,040 --> 02:09:22,160
Speaker 2: rules read has something to do with three front line

2488
02:09:22,200 --> 02:09:24,240
Speaker 2: players based on the minutes they play. Whatever the case

2489
02:09:24,280 --> 02:09:27,320
Speaker 2: may be, if all three sit, I think, two diys,

2490
02:09:27,480 --> 02:09:30,440
Speaker 2: whatever the case may be. Irrespective of big name, it's

2491
02:09:30,880 --> 02:09:32,920
Speaker 2: it has to do I think with their role on

2492
02:09:32,960 --> 02:09:37,640
Speaker 2: the team. But good point. Okay. Last week brock Purdy

2493

2550
02:12:49,240 --> 02:12:52,680
Speaker 2: You're welcome to chime in. Well, you heard me in

2551
02:12:52,720 --> 02:12:59,200
Speaker 2: the past few weeks with some fairly passionate, pointed commentary

2552
02:12:59,240 --> 02:13:02,800
Speaker 2: about Draymond Green. Well, he's clear to come back. I

2553
02:13:02,840 --> 02:13:04,440
Speaker 2: want to hear what the guys have to say about that.

2554
02:13:04,480 --> 02:13:07,240
Speaker 2: I'm sure we'll have some good thoughts. I'm Bernie Frattle

2555
02:13:07,360 --> 02:13:09,400
Speaker 2: or come to you live from Las Vegas, Fox Sports Radio,

2556
02:13:09,480 --> 02:13:11,880
Speaker 2: tyrec dot Com studios. Keep it locked. We seen to

2557
02:13:11,880 --> 02:13:22,600
Speaker 2: the Bernie Frattle Show on Fox Sports Radio. Are back

2558
02:13:22,640 --> 02:13:24,960
Speaker 2: on the Bernie Frattle Show. By the way, not for nothing.

2559
02:13:25,440 --> 02:13:28,360
Speaker 2: The Brooklyn Nets they were fined one hundred thousand dollars

2560
02:13:28,440 --> 02:13:32,840
Speaker 2: the other night they sat four players which violated the

2561
02:13:32,920 --> 02:13:39,440
Speaker 2: NBA's rule. Spencer Didwiddie, Cameron Johnson, Dorian Finney Smith and

2562
02:13:39,560 --> 02:13:45,440
Speaker 2: Nick Claxton. You're right, say all right, let's not waste

2563
02:13:45,440 --> 02:13:49,440
Speaker 2: any more time. The Draymond Green story needs no introduction.

2564
02:13:49,720 --> 02:13:53,080
Speaker 2: So you've heard my thoughts. Shay, Let's begin with you.

2565
02:13:53,320 --> 02:13:56,720
Speaker 2: I'm sure you've got something very interesting to share here

2566
02:13:56,800 --> 02:13:57,680
Speaker 2: on this situation.

2567
02:13:58,560 --> 02:14:01,080
Speaker 12: So yeah, I mean the big thing with me is

2568
02:14:01,080 --> 02:14:02,200
Speaker 12: is was it enough?

2569
02:14:02,520 --> 02:14:05,960
Speaker 11: Was was the NBA doing right by them saying kind

2570
02:14:06,040 --> 02:14:08,880
Speaker 11: of like we're gonna do this indefinitely and by saying

2571
02:14:08,880 --> 02:14:10,520
Speaker 11: they were gonna do it and definitely, I feel like

2572
02:14:10,560 --> 02:14:12,480
Speaker 11: it was kind of just a way for them to

2573
02:14:12,520 --> 02:14:14,200
Speaker 11: be able to be like, hey, this is going to

2574
02:14:14,240 --> 02:14:19,440
Speaker 11: be a hard, long suspension. But in the end it

2575
02:14:19,840 --> 02:14:22,320
Speaker 11: ended up being what only twelve games, where John Morance

2576
02:14:22,440 --> 02:14:25,680
Speaker 11: was twenty five games. So that makes me think, oh, like,

2577
02:14:25,920 --> 02:14:28,600
Speaker 11: is this just really good timing with Chris Paul's hand

2578
02:14:28,640 --> 02:14:32,160
Speaker 11: getting injured and Adam Silver kind of just helping them out,

2579
02:14:32,240 --> 02:14:34,880
Speaker 11: especially with them being one of the bigger markets. But

2580
02:14:34,960 --> 02:14:37,600
Speaker 11: in the end, like it's always speculation when this with

2581
02:14:37,720 --> 02:14:40,360
Speaker 11: these kind of things, and like, I don't know, I mean,

2582
02:14:41,000 --> 02:14:42,880
Speaker 11: in the end, I kind of I tried to break

2583
02:14:42,880 --> 02:14:44,840
Speaker 11: it down. I tried to see what he actually did

2584
02:14:44,840 --> 02:14:47,600
Speaker 11: and what he said. He said sorry, which he's never

2585
02:14:47,640 --> 02:14:52,240
Speaker 11: done before. He he did do a three sixty roundhouse punch,

2586
02:14:52,280 --> 02:14:54,880
Speaker 11: which I thought, which he really did look like he

2587
02:14:54,920 --> 02:14:57,320
Speaker 11: did it on purpose, which we if you compare it

2588
02:14:57,320 --> 02:14:59,320
Speaker 11: to all the other ones that he's done, it looks

2589
02:14:59,560 --> 02:15:01,400
Speaker 11: very sad Malai to where it almost looks like he

2590
02:15:01,440 --> 02:15:03,160
Speaker 11: does it on purpose, but some can argue that he

2591
02:15:03,200 --> 02:15:03,880
Speaker 11: didn't do it on.

2592
02:15:03,880 --> 02:15:06,920
Speaker 12: Purpose, So it just it just seemed like the same thing.

2593
02:15:06,960 --> 02:15:09,200
Speaker 11: And he's done it so many times that when this

2594
02:15:09,360 --> 02:15:12,320
Speaker 11: John Morant twenty five game suspension came out, I thought

2595
02:15:12,360 --> 02:15:15,640
Speaker 11: it would be exactly the twenty five game suspension. So

2596
02:15:15,920 --> 02:15:18,240
Speaker 11: this twelve game suspension just seemed like a cop out,

2597
02:15:18,280 --> 02:15:20,280
Speaker 11: like one hundred percent of cop out. Especially with Chris

2598
02:15:20,320 --> 02:15:23,920
Speaker 11: Paul's injury, it just seemed like something that like, hey,

2599
02:15:24,040 --> 02:15:27,080
Speaker 11: like Warriors, come on, let's let's help you guys out

2600
02:15:27,280 --> 02:15:29,520
Speaker 11: like this, this needs to happen, And especially with like

2601
02:15:29,560 --> 02:15:32,720
Speaker 11: these trade rumors happening and these trade packages happening. I

2602
02:15:32,720 --> 02:15:34,120
Speaker 11: don't know if you've heard about any of them, but

2603
02:15:34,240 --> 02:15:36,520
Speaker 11: like I seriously think this is a cop out, Like

2604
02:15:37,000 --> 02:15:38,760
Speaker 11: I don't think he would have been playing if Chris

2605
02:15:38,760 --> 02:15:40,240
Speaker 11: Paul's hand wasn't injured.

2606
02:15:41,120 --> 02:15:44,240
Speaker 2: Well, I'm not dismissive at all of your of your premise,

2607
02:15:44,320 --> 02:15:48,080
Speaker 2: it has merit. It's not cynical to say that Adam

2608
02:15:48,160 --> 02:15:50,480
Speaker 2: Silver makes it up as he goes along. I think

2609
02:15:50,520 --> 02:15:54,720
Speaker 2: I'm fair and saying that. Where I am s frazzled

2610
02:15:54,760 --> 02:15:59,280
Speaker 2: about this, Shay is that Draymond Green has seven of

2611
02:15:59,320 --> 02:16:03,200
Speaker 2: these bens, including four in the calendar year twenty twenty three.

2612
02:16:03,240 --> 02:16:06,080
Speaker 2: He's not getting better, he's getting worse, and he recently

2613
02:16:06,120 --> 02:16:08,520
Speaker 2: said I'm never going to change. This is who I am,

2614
02:16:08,600 --> 02:16:11,800
Speaker 2: which leads me to believe he feels justified in doing

2615
02:16:11,800 --> 02:16:15,200
Speaker 2: everything he's done. That's where I threw a flag. Do

2616
02:16:15,360 --> 02:16:18,480
Speaker 2: you not Shay on some level way in the factor

2617
02:16:18,520 --> 02:16:21,040
Speaker 2: that this isn't one or two suspensions, it's seven and

2618
02:16:21,400 --> 02:16:23,000
Speaker 2: twelve games? Are you kidding me? Yes?

2619
02:16:23,040 --> 02:16:25,160
Speaker 12: One hundred percent. I mean that's why. I mean, the

2620
02:16:25,200 --> 02:16:26,480
Speaker 12: main reason that we got.

2621
02:16:26,280 --> 02:16:28,960
Speaker 11: On John Morant so bad was because it was his

2622
02:16:29,040 --> 02:16:31,880
Speaker 11: second time doing it, and it was only his second

2623
02:16:31,920 --> 02:16:34,680
Speaker 11: time doing the same exact thing. If John Morant was

2624
02:16:34,800 --> 02:16:38,119
Speaker 11: to brandish a gun seven times, he wouldn't.

2625
02:16:37,720 --> 02:16:40,000
Speaker 12: Be in the NBA anymore. He wouldn't even have an

2626
02:16:40,000 --> 02:16:43,200
Speaker 12: opportunity to brandish the gun seven times. You know what

2627
02:16:43,240 --> 02:16:46,240
Speaker 12: I mean? Like this is it. It's something that's just

2628
02:16:46,360 --> 02:16:46,920
Speaker 12: unheard of.

2629
02:16:47,000 --> 02:16:51,959
Speaker 11: So the fact that Kreen only got twelve games, on

2630
02:16:52,200 --> 02:16:55,560
Speaker 11: top of being able to just come back and I

2631
02:16:55,600 --> 02:16:58,560
Speaker 11: don't know what a month of it's a month, twelve

2632
02:16:58,560 --> 02:17:01,200
Speaker 11: games is a round a month. What a month of

2633
02:17:01,360 --> 02:17:04,880
Speaker 11: therapy is going to change? Like maybe if it was

2634
02:17:04,920 --> 02:17:07,480
Speaker 11: a year. Yeah, But I mean, do you think you

2635
02:17:07,520 --> 02:17:09,000
Speaker 11: can change in a month? I don't see.

2636
02:17:09,040 --> 02:17:11,480
Speaker 12: I don't know anyone that's gone to therapy and changes

2637
02:17:11,520 --> 02:17:11,959
Speaker 12: in a month.

2638
02:17:12,520 --> 02:17:12,720
Speaker 9: Yeah.

2639
02:17:12,760 --> 02:17:14,480
Speaker 2: I don't think he can change at all. And that

2640
02:17:14,520 --> 02:17:17,280
Speaker 2: remains to be seen. We'll see if I'm wrong about that. Kevin,

2641
02:17:17,280 --> 02:17:18,360
Speaker 2: why are at your thoughts on this?

2642
02:17:18,959 --> 02:17:19,080
Speaker 7: Well?

2643
02:17:19,120 --> 02:17:22,600
Speaker 6: I think Shay said everything perfectly, especially when you compare

2644
02:17:22,760 --> 02:17:24,520
Speaker 6: to jam mart Now. I know a gun is a

2645
02:17:24,560 --> 02:17:28,760
Speaker 6: significant escalation over barriend but nonetheless it is still conduct

2646
02:17:28,800 --> 02:17:33,280
Speaker 6: that is detrimental to the league and Draymond Green on

2647
02:17:33,320 --> 02:17:36,240
Speaker 6: the court, causing physical altercations. It's not like he gets

2648
02:17:36,240 --> 02:17:39,320
Speaker 6: better for the doubt because he's just he's done it

2649
02:17:39,360 --> 02:17:42,520
Speaker 6: so many times. He's been suspended for it before. So

2650
02:17:43,000 --> 02:17:45,160
Speaker 6: why was it such a light suspension. I know, when

2651
02:17:45,200 --> 02:17:47,200
Speaker 6: they said in definite, you thought, Okay, this is going

2652
02:17:47,280 --> 02:17:50,240
Speaker 6: to be a long term process. If he's going to

2653
02:17:50,280 --> 02:17:55,039
Speaker 6: get help or you know, grow to become at least

2654
02:17:55,080 --> 02:17:58,720
Speaker 6: a better person on the court, the suspension would have

2655
02:17:58,760 --> 02:18:02,520
Speaker 6: been warranted in being indefinite, but twelve games, I mean

2656
02:18:02,600 --> 02:18:03,920
Speaker 6: doesn't feel like anything right.

2657
02:18:03,959 --> 02:18:06,840
Speaker 11: It just it just allowed them to do like indefinite

2658
02:18:06,840 --> 02:18:08,400
Speaker 11: made it seem like it was gonna be Yeah, it

2659
02:18:08,480 --> 02:18:11,680
Speaker 11: was really lengthy long suspension and then they go and

2660
02:18:11,720 --> 02:18:13,600
Speaker 11: do it in twelve games. So it looks like the

2661
02:18:13,680 --> 02:18:15,680
Speaker 11: NBA did the right thing, but in the end they

2662
02:18:15,680 --> 02:18:16,120
Speaker 11: did the wrong.

2663
02:18:16,280 --> 02:18:17,600
Speaker 6: I mean, it was a slap on the wrist at

2664
02:18:17,640 --> 02:18:21,240
Speaker 6: the end of the days. And he has no incentive

2665
02:18:21,280 --> 02:18:23,920
Speaker 6: to change. I mean, if that's how he plays, and

2666
02:18:24,280 --> 02:18:26,400
Speaker 6: he otherwise has the support of his team who keeps

2667
02:18:26,400 --> 02:18:28,480
Speaker 6: putting him on the floor, why would he change. I mean,

2668
02:18:29,080 --> 02:18:33,240
Speaker 6: he's been incentivized to play the way he has because

2669
02:18:33,400 --> 02:18:36,320
Speaker 6: his team has enabled him to play that way. It's

2670
02:18:36,400 --> 02:18:39,960
Speaker 6: I mean, what did Steve kurseay after that behavior?

2671
02:18:40,600 --> 02:18:45,520
Speaker 2: I mean, and you wonder now if let me back

2672
02:18:45,600 --> 02:18:47,320
Speaker 2: up for a second, The word indefinite stuck in my

2673
02:18:47,400 --> 02:18:50,959
Speaker 2: mind too, because I was at the mouse at the palace.

2674
02:18:51,000 --> 02:18:54,400
Speaker 2: We were doing a Rady remote you know, that night

2675
02:18:54,600 --> 02:18:58,959
Speaker 2: and November nineteenth this year is the twenty year anniversary

2676
02:18:59,120 --> 02:19:02,440
Speaker 2: Bronte was given in a definite sus Benchi, which turned

2677
02:19:02,440 --> 02:19:07,160
Speaker 2: into the rest of the season, sixty five games. I

2678
02:19:07,200 --> 02:19:08,680
Speaker 2: want to go back to Shaye. I want to ask

2679
02:19:08,720 --> 02:19:11,920
Speaker 2: you one more question. This may not be easy to answer,

2680
02:19:12,080 --> 02:19:15,520
Speaker 2: but I'm gonna blurt out My answer is, yes, do

2681
02:19:15,560 --> 02:19:18,920
Speaker 2: you believe that at least one more time, no matter

2682
02:19:18,920 --> 02:19:22,680
Speaker 2: how long Draymond Greed remains in the league, they'll have

2683
02:19:22,720 --> 02:19:23,800
Speaker 2: at least one more incident.

2684
02:19:24,440 --> 02:19:26,280
Speaker 12: I did go have another incident this year?

2685
02:19:27,000 --> 02:19:31,280
Speaker 2: I love it? No, seriously, no, go ahead, you Google.

2686
02:19:31,480 --> 02:19:34,360
Speaker 12: I mean, like, why he's already had four this it

2687
02:19:34,480 --> 02:19:35,840
Speaker 12: was four, right, He's.

2688
02:19:35,720 --> 02:19:37,680
Speaker 2: A more coundar. You're twenty twenty three alone.

2689
02:19:37,800 --> 02:19:41,960
Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean like it's just gonna get more intense.

2690
02:19:42,080 --> 02:19:45,520
Speaker 11: The games are just gonna get more, like just more

2691
02:19:45,600 --> 02:19:48,520
Speaker 11: rowdy the more it gets closer to playoffs. Like that's

2692
02:19:48,520 --> 02:19:50,760
Speaker 11: what we always see with the NBA, more fouls and

2693
02:19:50,800 --> 02:19:53,360
Speaker 11: harder fouls the closer it gets to the playoffs. So

2694
02:19:53,400 --> 02:19:56,680
Speaker 11: it's just people are crazy to think that he's not

2695
02:19:56,680 --> 02:19:58,600
Speaker 11: gonna do this again, And when he does do it again,

2696
02:19:58,760 --> 02:20:01,280
Speaker 11: I'm surprised. I'm gonna be surprised at what they do.

2697
02:20:01,840 --> 02:20:03,360
Speaker 11: People are gonna call for him to be out of

2698
02:20:03,400 --> 02:20:05,879
Speaker 11: the league, but I doubt they'll do that I doubt theyn't.

2699
02:20:05,720 --> 02:20:07,760
Speaker 12: Even give him like a ten game suspension at this point.

2700
02:20:07,800 --> 02:20:09,640
Speaker 11: It will be something small, like I don't even know

2701
02:20:09,720 --> 02:20:11,600
Speaker 11: what it would be at this point, Like shit.

2702
02:20:11,440 --> 02:20:15,680
Speaker 2: I got a thought. Because you're presiding over a midnight

2703
02:20:15,720 --> 02:20:19,120
Speaker 2: hour and we're instrumental in our contest on Friday night

2704
02:20:19,160 --> 02:20:21,959
Speaker 2: at midnight, what do we maybe consider making this next

2705
02:20:22,200 --> 02:20:26,879
Speaker 2: Friday Night's midnight hour topic? Because this is gonna have legs.

2706
02:20:27,120 --> 02:20:28,680
Speaker 2: I don't think he will have played a game by

2707
02:20:28,720 --> 02:20:30,959
Speaker 2: next Friday night. He will be getting ready to play

2708
02:20:30,959 --> 02:20:33,480
Speaker 2: a game, and the story is so fresh we're just

2709
02:20:33,600 --> 02:20:36,200
Speaker 2: kind of reacting to it knee jerk fashion. So we'll

2710
02:20:36,200 --> 02:20:38,560
Speaker 2: give that some thought and I let that be your

2711
02:20:38,560 --> 02:20:40,560
Speaker 2: call for next Friday Night. But it could be a

2712
02:20:40,560 --> 02:20:44,560
Speaker 2: polarizing subject. It could be definitely. Joe Morant was all right, excellent,

2713
02:20:44,640 --> 02:20:47,560
Speaker 2: excellent input. I like your angle very much on the

2714
02:20:47,680 --> 02:20:50,880
Speaker 2: Adam Silver Well, Chris Paul's out, so let's get Draymond

2715
02:20:50,920 --> 02:20:55,400
Speaker 2: back in. That actually is an angle that I think

2716
02:20:55,560 --> 02:21:00,360
Speaker 2: is worth discussing and maybe continuing next Friday Night. Coming up,

2717
02:21:00,360 --> 02:21:02,160
Speaker 2: we do have Chris profets World of Soccer. But first

2718
02:21:02,200 --> 02:21:04,360
Speaker 2: let's go back to our guy. The chef Kevin Weyer

2719
02:21:04,400 --> 02:21:04,840
Speaker 2: with the Lakers.

2720
02:21:04,840 --> 02:21:07,520
Speaker 6: I'm curious to know what happens if Draymond Green were

2721
02:21:07,520 --> 02:21:10,320
Speaker 6: to do that in a nationally televised playoff game, what

2722
02:21:10,360 --> 02:21:11,200
Speaker 6: the league's respond for.

2723
02:21:11,280 --> 02:21:13,680
Speaker 2: He did it, He did it in the NBA Finals

2724
02:21:13,680 --> 02:21:15,760
Speaker 2: in two thousand, Yes, yeah, when he kicked.

2725
02:21:15,920 --> 02:21:20,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, but that was back before he became a repeat offender.

2726
02:21:20,280 --> 02:21:24,840
Speaker 2: That's right. But still he was suspended for a an

2727
02:21:24,920 --> 02:21:27,680
Speaker 2: NBA Finals game, which is rare that almost never happens.

2728
02:21:27,959 --> 02:21:31,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, so that's I think that's what will be the

2729
02:21:31,240 --> 02:21:34,640
Speaker 6: next shoot a drop, so to say, regarding dray What

2730
02:21:34,720 --> 02:21:38,760
Speaker 6: happened happened. So the league saying they are reinstating him

2731
02:21:38,879 --> 02:21:41,680
Speaker 6: just a twelve game suspension after they announced it initially

2732
02:21:41,720 --> 02:21:47,760
Speaker 6: as an indefinite one due to Draymond Green's on court altercations.

2733
02:21:47,879 --> 02:21:50,320
Speaker 6: So it ended up being a twelve game. So he

2734
02:21:50,640 --> 02:21:53,520
Speaker 6: is back in the Warriors building and wrapping himself up

2735
02:21:53,720 --> 02:21:56,840
Speaker 6: to play. It's for some scores from the NBA on

2736
02:21:56,879 --> 02:21:59,400
Speaker 6: his Saturday night. It's the Rockets beating the Bucks one

2737
02:21:59,480 --> 02:22:02,840
Speaker 6: twelve one. Wit so Yannis had forty eight points, the

2738
02:22:02,920 --> 02:22:06,360
Speaker 6: Jazz beat the seventy six ers, and Philadelphia did not

2739
02:22:06,400 --> 02:22:09,400
Speaker 6: have Joe LMB, so that really did not help them there.

2740
02:22:09,400 --> 02:22:11,880
Speaker 6: They lose it one twenty to one oh nine, Nicks

2741
02:22:11,920 --> 02:22:14,600
Speaker 6: over the over the Wizards one twenty one oh five.

2742
02:22:14,959 --> 02:22:17,360
Speaker 6: The Celtics beat the Pacers, snapping in the end a

2743
02:22:17,440 --> 02:22:20,760
Speaker 6: six game winning streak one eighteen one oh one the final.

2744
02:22:20,840 --> 02:22:24,920
Speaker 6: There the NFL Big Day on Saturday, a doubleheader of

2745
02:22:25,000 --> 02:22:29,760
Speaker 6: action with playoff implications, and the Houston Texans getting themselves

2746
02:22:29,800 --> 02:22:33,080
Speaker 6: into the playoff field for the first time in four

2747
02:22:33,240 --> 02:22:36,360
Speaker 6: years with a twenty three nineteen win against Indianapolis Colts

2748
02:22:36,480 --> 02:22:41,320
Speaker 6: that eliminates the Colts from the playoffs. Earlier today, we're

2749
02:22:41,320 --> 02:22:45,120
Speaker 6: earlier on Saturday, we had the Steelers with a to

2750
02:22:45,360 --> 02:22:47,959
Speaker 6: seventeen to ten win against the Ravens, so that keeps

2751
02:22:48,000 --> 02:22:51,879
Speaker 6: them alive for a playoff spot. But TJ. Watt a

2752
02:22:52,000 --> 02:22:55,080
Speaker 6: great three MCL spring. He suffered in that game, so

2753
02:22:55,080 --> 02:22:58,080
Speaker 6: they're gonna test it more, but his availability for a

2754
02:22:58,120 --> 02:23:01,920
Speaker 6: possible playoff opener is in doubt now. For the Steelers,

2755
02:23:01,920 --> 02:23:05,960
Speaker 6: it's actually pretty simple. If either the Jaguars or the

2756
02:23:05,959 --> 02:23:11,000
Speaker 6: Bills lose on Sunday, they are in. So they're eagerly

2757
02:23:11,040 --> 02:23:15,000
Speaker 6: awaiting the results of those matchups. Now ask for the Bills,

2758
02:23:15,000 --> 02:23:16,959
Speaker 6: we'll have a bit of an easier time because the

2759
02:23:17,040 --> 02:23:19,880
Speaker 6: Dolphins will have a couple of key players out. Running

2760
02:23:19,879 --> 02:23:24,640
Speaker 6: back Raheem Moster, wide receiver Jalen Waddle not expected to

2761
02:23:24,680 --> 02:23:28,200
Speaker 6: play in tomorrow night's season finale against the Bills. That

2762
02:23:28,240 --> 02:23:31,680
Speaker 6: is according to NFL Network. Back to you, Bernie all Right.

2763
02:23:31,680 --> 02:23:38,720
Speaker 2: Great job to night chef, standing and obviously all of

2764
02:23:38,760 --> 02:23:41,840
Speaker 2: these storylines tonight, some are going to continue into next week.

2765
02:23:41,879 --> 02:23:45,119
Speaker 2: So hold that thought, guys, coming up at this time

2766
02:23:45,160 --> 02:23:47,800
Speaker 2: every week, it's this four played around the world twenty

2767
02:23:47,800 --> 02:23:49,720
Speaker 2: four to seven. There's always news. That's why we bring

2768
02:23:49,760 --> 02:23:54,959
Speaker 2: you Chris Purffett's World of Soccer, The Greatest Goals.

2769
02:24:00,280 --> 02:24:06,480
Speaker 1: Finishes, the International drum hie.

2770
02:24:06,920 --> 02:24:08,240
Speaker 2: Him at the level.

2771
02:24:09,320 --> 02:24:12,760
Speaker 1: It's all here in this report from the World of Soccer.

2772
02:24:13,080 --> 02:24:16,400
Speaker 3: Winter is the fun time and the money time in soccer.

2773
02:24:16,480 --> 02:24:18,680
Speaker 3: More on that in a bit. It's been a minute

2774
02:24:18,720 --> 02:24:21,920
Speaker 3: since the World of Soccer has taken a look at

2775
02:24:22,080 --> 02:24:26,359
Speaker 3: England first and foremost FA Cup in action. This weekend

2776
02:24:26,400 --> 02:24:29,960
Speaker 3: the third round, as things start to get really heated up,

2777
02:24:30,120 --> 02:24:34,360
Speaker 3: Sunday's bringing us a couple of wonderful, wonderful matches our

2778
02:24:34,400 --> 02:24:38,560
Speaker 3: old friends over and Wrexham. The Stars of fx IS

2779
02:24:38,600 --> 02:24:41,840
Speaker 3: Welcome to Wrexham, that club there that we've come to

2780
02:24:41,920 --> 02:24:45,600
Speaker 3: know and love, is in action on Sunday nine am

2781
02:24:45,760 --> 02:24:49,040
Speaker 3: Eastern taking on Shrewsbury Town.

2782
02:24:49,200 --> 02:24:50,320
Speaker 6: A fun little thing.

2783
02:24:50,160 --> 02:24:52,880
Speaker 3: There to keep an eye on on your streaming services,

2784
02:24:53,000 --> 02:24:55,800
Speaker 3: but really the real gem of the weekend is at

2785
02:24:55,840 --> 02:25:01,440
Speaker 3: eleven thirty am East Coast time Arsenal and Live a

2786
02:25:01,480 --> 02:25:05,360
Speaker 3: big time matchup here early in the rounds of the

2787
02:25:05,480 --> 02:25:11,199
Speaker 3: FA Cup. Arsenal and Liverpool both big heavyweight Premier League

2788
02:25:11,320 --> 02:25:14,840
Speaker 3: heavyweight contenders. Now Arsenal's fallen on a little bit of

2789
02:25:14,840 --> 02:25:17,280
Speaker 3: a harder time here in this halfway point. They're still

2790
02:25:17,280 --> 02:25:20,320
Speaker 3: not out of it yet, still holding on to the

2791
02:25:20,360 --> 02:25:24,400
Speaker 3: top echelons, coming into the weekend fourth with forty points

2792
02:25:24,640 --> 02:25:28,200
Speaker 3: in the Premier League, while Arsenal Liverpool excuse me, holds

2793
02:25:28,200 --> 02:25:32,480
Speaker 3: a three point lead over aston Villa as the pacesetters

2794
02:25:32,680 --> 02:25:36,360
Speaker 3: in the Premier League. Should be an incredibly fun one.

2795
02:25:37,360 --> 02:25:41,280
Speaker 3: Michil Arteta, the manager for Arsenal, is calling for a

2796
02:25:41,320 --> 02:25:43,760
Speaker 3: hostile crowd in this clash. Maybe not the words I

2797
02:25:43,760 --> 02:25:47,600
Speaker 3: would use in anything where Liverpool is involved, but certainly

2798
02:25:47,640 --> 02:25:49,520
Speaker 3: the team needs firing up.

2799
02:25:49,640 --> 02:25:51,920
Speaker 1: This may not be their their priority.

2800
02:25:51,959 --> 02:25:53,800
Speaker 3: I think if you ask Arsenal, they'd like to win

2801
02:25:54,120 --> 02:25:57,720
Speaker 3: the Premier League title, but the FA Cup would absolutely

2802
02:25:57,720 --> 02:25:59,959
Speaker 3: be a nice notch and you know, to get into

2803
02:26:00,160 --> 02:26:03,879
Speaker 3: style here against Liverpool. Very interesting though. Liverpool will be

2804
02:26:04,000 --> 02:26:08,080
Speaker 3: without two very big stars for them, as Mohammed Sala,

2805
02:26:08,120 --> 02:26:12,960
Speaker 3: They're superstar, will miss time for this and he's going

2806
02:26:13,040 --> 02:26:15,720
Speaker 3: to the Africa Cup of Nations playing for his home

2807
02:26:15,800 --> 02:26:19,840
Speaker 3: country of Egypt. Liverpool is also without their Japanese midfielder

2808
02:26:20,160 --> 02:26:23,480
Speaker 3: Watarro Endo as he is heading for the Asian Cup,

2809
02:26:23,760 --> 02:26:26,400
Speaker 3: kind of underscoring the fact this is a very busy

2810
02:26:26,480 --> 02:26:29,240
Speaker 3: time of the year. Still, every part of the year

2811
02:26:29,440 --> 02:26:33,640
Speaker 3: is busy for soccer, and interesting comments by Liverpool manager

2812
02:26:33,720 --> 02:26:38,000
Speaker 3: Jurgen Klopp who joked about he's not exactly wishing those

2813
02:26:38,040 --> 02:26:40,480
Speaker 3: countries well and you know he was asked about it

2814
02:26:40,520 --> 02:26:43,879
Speaker 3: and said no, he kind of hopes they bomb out

2815
02:26:43,879 --> 02:26:46,800
Speaker 3: pretty quickly and I can't blame him. He wants Endo

2816
02:26:46,879 --> 02:26:50,359
Speaker 3: and Sala back as soon as possible for English club glory,

2817
02:26:50,640 --> 02:26:53,440
Speaker 3: especially after the couple of years that have been a

2818
02:26:53,520 --> 02:26:56,320
Speaker 3: little bit more trying for Liverpool since their title. But

2819
02:26:56,720 --> 02:27:00,320
Speaker 3: it does once again reemphasize how crowded this count under

2820
02:27:00,440 --> 02:27:04,000
Speaker 3: is and the competing interest between nation and club, even

2821
02:27:04,040 --> 02:27:06,240
Speaker 3: at the best of times for a league leader like

2822
02:27:06,360 --> 02:27:09,760
Speaker 3: Liverpool is. But really, here, Burnie, the big news of

2823
02:27:09,840 --> 02:27:13,040
Speaker 3: the week, the big news of this entire month, as

2824
02:27:13,080 --> 02:27:15,720
Speaker 3: it were, in the world of soccer, is that the

2825
02:27:15,760 --> 02:27:19,600
Speaker 3: winter transfer window is open and it is going to

2826
02:27:19,640 --> 02:27:23,640
Speaker 3: remain open for most of the major nations in Europe

2827
02:27:23,720 --> 02:27:24,760
Speaker 3: until February.

2828
02:27:24,920 --> 02:27:25,280
Speaker 2: First.

2829
02:27:25,640 --> 02:27:27,920
Speaker 3: The ones who are going to be wheeling and dealing

2830
02:27:28,040 --> 02:27:31,760
Speaker 3: mostly Spain and England and maybe some more on the

2831
02:27:31,800 --> 02:27:35,680
Speaker 3: second level here in Germany in Italy as well. And

2832
02:27:35,760 --> 02:27:39,679
Speaker 3: it's interesting for a lot of reasons. Let's start with valuation,

2833
02:27:39,840 --> 02:27:43,800
Speaker 3: which has been skyrocketing across the transfer market for years

2834
02:27:43,800 --> 02:27:48,000
Speaker 3: and years now in soccer. It's the one that gets

2835
02:27:48,080 --> 02:27:54,160
Speaker 3: all of the interesting numbers, the eye popping numbers about soccer,

2836
02:27:54,280 --> 02:27:57,440
Speaker 3: because it's the value we see versus contracts that are

2837
02:27:57,440 --> 02:28:00,080
Speaker 3: a little more close to the chest.

2838
02:28:00,240 --> 02:28:01,320
Speaker 2: If you will.

2839
02:28:01,440 --> 02:28:02,240
Speaker 6: But we do get to.

2840
02:28:02,160 --> 02:28:05,560
Speaker 3: See transfer numbers when the transfer fees come out for

2841
02:28:05,760 --> 02:28:09,120
Speaker 3: these players, for clubs getting back what is basically their

2842
02:28:09,160 --> 02:28:12,240
Speaker 3: cash value on a player when they did leave for

2843
02:28:12,320 --> 02:28:17,280
Speaker 3: another club. Now the French International Center for Sports Studies CIEs,

2844
02:28:18,360 --> 02:28:23,520
Speaker 3: their Football Observatory publishes estimated transfer values every year and

2845
02:28:23,600 --> 02:28:27,040
Speaker 3: to really underscore how much things are sailing so high,

2846
02:28:27,360 --> 02:28:30,160
Speaker 3: we have some of the values out now. They publish

2847
02:28:30,240 --> 02:28:33,840
Speaker 3: this on the third of January. Leading the headlines here

2848
02:28:33,879 --> 02:28:37,800
Speaker 3: for most eye popping, eye watering numbers is the English

2849
02:28:37,800 --> 02:28:42,840
Speaker 3: forward Jude Bellingham for Real Madrid, who CIS estimates his

2850
02:28:43,040 --> 02:28:46,960
Speaker 3: value in transfer window to be at two hundred and

2851
02:28:47,120 --> 02:28:51,800
Speaker 3: sixty seven point five million euros, or to put that

2852
02:28:51,959 --> 02:28:56,920
Speaker 3: into US dollars, about two hundred and ninety two million.

2853
02:28:57,560 --> 02:29:00,400
Speaker 3: It's staggering, and it's actually even more more than the

2854
02:29:00,400 --> 02:29:02,879
Speaker 3: second man on the list, the man we've talked about

2855
02:29:02,879 --> 02:29:07,280
Speaker 3: for so much, Earling Holland, the Norwegian striker for Manchester City,

2856
02:29:07,560 --> 02:29:11,360
Speaker 3: valued at two hundred and fifty one million euros. Real

2857
02:29:11,400 --> 02:29:15,800
Speaker 3: Madrid actually owns three of the top four players in

2858
02:29:16,040 --> 02:29:21,240
Speaker 3: estimated transfer value, also adding that Venisius Junior and Rodrigo Goyez,

2859
02:29:21,720 --> 02:29:25,480
Speaker 3: both Brazilian players and both about twenty three years of age,

2860
02:29:26,120 --> 02:29:29,520
Speaker 3: really underscoring just how much talent, how much young talent,

2861
02:29:30,080 --> 02:29:34,320
Speaker 3: is at the Spanish Titans of Real Madrid, and once

2862
02:29:34,360 --> 02:29:37,400
Speaker 3: again how much these values are just skyrocketing the now.

2863
02:29:37,440 --> 02:29:39,720
Speaker 3: That's not to say they're not going to send these

2864
02:29:39,760 --> 02:29:43,040
Speaker 3: players over somewhere in the transfer and get this money.

2865
02:29:43,240 --> 02:29:43,840
Speaker 6: These are all.

2866
02:29:43,760 --> 02:29:46,720
Speaker 3: Players, very much so in their early twenties, who are

2867
02:29:47,000 --> 02:29:50,320
Speaker 3: prime and proper for Real Madrid. They'd be crazy to

2868
02:29:50,320 --> 02:29:52,039
Speaker 3: get up a lot of them. But it just really

2869
02:29:52,520 --> 02:29:56,039
Speaker 3: just sets the pace for how valuable it is to

2870
02:29:56,080 --> 02:29:59,720
Speaker 3: get some of these players, and really the Real Madrid

2871
02:29:59,800 --> 02:30:02,800
Speaker 3: are even thinking about selling at this point. They want

2872
02:30:03,080 --> 02:30:06,720
Speaker 3: the biggest piece out there. They want Killian Embappe, and

2873
02:30:06,760 --> 02:30:09,320
Speaker 3: this has been the time of year that people are

2874
02:30:09,320 --> 02:30:12,000
Speaker 3: saying this is it. This is the final push for

2875
02:30:12,120 --> 02:30:15,640
Speaker 3: killing in bope to see if Real Madrid, the club

2876
02:30:15,680 --> 02:30:17,960
Speaker 3: that has wanted him for so long, we'll be able

2877
02:30:17,959 --> 02:30:21,720
Speaker 3: to bring home Killing Embape, the amazing French player who

2878
02:30:21,720 --> 02:30:23,840
Speaker 3: we saw in the World Cup, who has wanted to

2879
02:30:23,879 --> 02:30:27,200
Speaker 3: play for Real Madrid his entire life, currently playing for

2880
02:30:27,240 --> 02:30:31,199
Speaker 3: the French club Paris Saint Germain. But he has said

2881
02:30:31,280 --> 02:30:33,760
Speaker 3: himself that you know it's not so rosy at Paris

2882
02:30:33,760 --> 02:30:37,520
Speaker 3: Saint Germain. He missed playing alongside Lionel Messi who went

2883
02:30:37,640 --> 02:30:41,400
Speaker 3: stateside inter Miami, which was really the first Nell that

2884
02:30:41,560 --> 02:30:45,720
Speaker 3: this era of PSG football was really over. And the

2885
02:30:45,760 --> 02:30:48,000
Speaker 3: good news is is that the camp of Killing and

2886
02:30:48,080 --> 02:30:51,760
Speaker 3: Bape we might get a decision sooner rather than later,

2887
02:30:52,320 --> 02:30:56,480
Speaker 3: thanks to the French newspaper Le Keep, the rumor being

2888
02:30:56,560 --> 02:31:00,519
Speaker 3: that this is a decision here. Hopefully we will see

2889
02:31:00,560 --> 02:31:04,240
Speaker 3: in the coming days. Now Killing Embappe's contract with Paris

2890
02:31:04,280 --> 02:31:07,879
Speaker 3: and Jermaine is expiring at the end of the year here,

2891
02:31:08,280 --> 02:31:11,280
Speaker 3: but PSG really is in no rush to get rid

2892
02:31:11,320 --> 02:31:14,800
Speaker 3: of him and try to recoup some of the costs

2893
02:31:14,800 --> 02:31:16,959
Speaker 3: that they would lose if he decided to leave on

2894
02:31:17,040 --> 02:31:20,080
Speaker 3: a free transfer, because if he did, he would probably

2895
02:31:20,160 --> 02:31:23,760
Speaker 3: waive loyalty bonus payments worth up to about one hundred

2896
02:31:23,879 --> 02:31:27,640
Speaker 3: million euros. This is a very exciting time, Bernie, most

2897
02:31:27,680 --> 02:31:32,039
Speaker 3: of all because of killing Himbappe a phenomenal, phenomenal player

2898
02:31:32,160 --> 02:31:35,160
Speaker 3: who could be going to very big places and we

2899
02:31:35,200 --> 02:31:38,440
Speaker 3: want to see him playing on the biggest stage. For now,

2900
02:31:38,640 --> 02:31:41,680
Speaker 3: we'll wait with baited breath for the next world of soccer.

2901
02:31:41,959 --> 02:31:44,440
Speaker 2: All right, thanks Chris, always plenty to talk about and

Speaker 2: I've got an outstanding broadcast team and I appreci them

2924
02:33:00,520 --> 02:33:03,240
Speaker 2: very much. Without them, I might as well be standing

2925
02:33:03,240 --> 02:33:05,800
Speaker 2: in the urinal talking to the wall, because we don't

2926
02:33:05,840 --> 02:33:10,880
Speaker 2: put this show on the air without Shay, Kevin and Mark.

2927
02:33:12,040 --> 02:33:15,400
Speaker 2: All Right, you may be sleeping, so you may not

2928
02:33:15,480 --> 02:33:17,440
Speaker 2: be able to hear this, But if you are one

2929
02:33:17,480 --> 02:33:21,240
Speaker 2: of these fan bases, I am guessing you're not sleeping

2930
02:33:21,360 --> 02:33:26,760
Speaker 2: that soundly. Tonight Number one the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. So

2931
02:33:26,800 --> 02:33:30,600
Speaker 2: you gotta go to Carolina and went on the road. Now,

2932
02:33:30,640 --> 02:33:33,240
Speaker 2: Carolina might be the worst team in football, but you

2933
02:33:33,320 --> 02:33:36,200
Speaker 2: heard me say in the beginning of the show that

2934
02:33:37,040 --> 02:33:42,039
Speaker 2: since nineteen ninety, whenever a team that's been completely eliminated

2935
02:33:42,560 --> 02:33:46,080
Speaker 2: faces a team that must win to get into the playoffs,

2936
02:33:46,720 --> 02:33:50,040
Speaker 2: the team that's been completely eliminated covers the spread sixty

2937
02:33:50,120 --> 02:33:52,880
Speaker 2: one percent of the time. Trust me. I covered some

2938
02:33:53,000 --> 02:33:55,840
Speaker 2: bad teams in Detroit between ninety eight and No. Eight

2939
02:33:55,959 --> 02:33:58,680
Speaker 2: saw it all, and I know that many of those

2940
02:33:58,760 --> 02:34:03,760
Speaker 2: years it was done after Thanksgiving. They played hard, and

2941
02:34:03,800 --> 02:34:08,680
Speaker 2: these are lead athletes and they have very They have

2942
02:34:08,760 --> 02:34:10,920
Speaker 2: a lot of pride in their craft. So none of

2943
02:34:10,920 --> 02:34:12,480
Speaker 2: these guys are gonna lay down, not if they want

2944
02:34:12,520 --> 02:34:14,840
Speaker 2: to stay in the National Football League. Next year because

2945
02:34:14,840 --> 02:34:16,400
Speaker 2: one hundred percent of what you do is observed one

2946
02:34:16,440 --> 02:34:18,119
Speaker 2: hundred percent of the time by somebody, and you're gonna

2947
02:34:18,120 --> 02:34:22,400
Speaker 2: be on film. I think Tampa Bay fan base they're

2948
02:34:22,400 --> 02:34:23,199
Speaker 2: not sleeping easy.

2949
02:34:23,240 --> 02:34:23,360
Speaker 9: Now.

2950
02:34:23,440 --> 02:34:25,560
Speaker 2: Do I expect Tampa Bay to win win the division? Sure,

2951
02:34:25,600 --> 02:34:29,000
Speaker 2: but if they don't, they're out of the playoffs. Win

2952
02:34:29,080 --> 02:34:32,560
Speaker 2: or nothing. How about the Jacksonville Jaguars. We've talked about

2953
02:34:32,560 --> 02:34:36,680
Speaker 2: them a lot tonight and they've got a banged up quarterback. Now.

2954
02:34:37,200 --> 02:34:39,440
Speaker 2: They're currently the number four seed in the AFC and

2955
02:34:39,440 --> 02:34:42,879
Speaker 2: they lead the AFC South, and they do they do

2956
02:34:42,920 --> 02:34:45,120
Speaker 2: on the tiebreaker over the Texans and Colts for the

2957
02:34:45,160 --> 02:34:48,400
Speaker 2: division lead, where the Texans beat the Colts, So the

2958
02:34:48,440 --> 02:34:52,160
Speaker 2: Colts are out. The Texans are in the playoffs. But

2959
02:34:52,360 --> 02:34:56,400
Speaker 2: Jacksonville wants to win the AFC South because if they

2960
02:34:56,480 --> 02:34:59,320
Speaker 2: don't and they and again they go to Tennessee, another

2961
02:34:59,400 --> 02:35:02,959
Speaker 2: team it's having a rough year. But when you got

2962
02:35:03,000 --> 02:35:05,560
Speaker 2: Derrick Henry and Mike Rabel and guys playing for jobs

2963
02:35:05,560 --> 02:35:06,840
Speaker 2: and you got to go on the road to win

2964
02:35:06,879 --> 02:35:12,600
Speaker 2: a game, it's not automatic. So the Jags they win

2965
02:35:13,040 --> 02:35:17,279
Speaker 2: at Tennessee and they win the FC South. They lose,

2966
02:35:18,480 --> 02:35:24,160
Speaker 2: they missed the playoffs. Completely tough deal. How about the

2967
02:35:24,200 --> 02:35:28,760
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Steelers. They looked very good Saturday, gritty, gutty win.

2968
02:35:28,879 --> 02:35:31,480
Speaker 2: They won the game with the line of scrimmage. Football

2969
02:35:31,560 --> 02:35:33,720
Speaker 2: is still blocking and tackling the rest of details, and

2970
02:35:33,800 --> 02:35:36,480
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh did it better in the rain. They got their

2971
02:35:36,480 --> 02:35:38,760
Speaker 2: win over the Ravens in Baltimore, but now they need

2972
02:35:38,800 --> 02:35:42,600
Speaker 2: help to make the postseason. They're ten and seven. Pittsburgh

2973
02:35:42,680 --> 02:35:46,280
Speaker 2: right now would be their number six seed if Jacksonville

2974
02:35:46,440 --> 02:35:51,560
Speaker 2: loses and the Bills lose. Now, the Steelers would be

2975
02:35:51,560 --> 02:35:55,920
Speaker 2: the number seven seed if the Bills win and the

2976
02:35:56,000 --> 02:36:01,440
Speaker 2: Jaguars lose, or the Jaguars win and lose. But if

2977
02:36:01,480 --> 02:36:05,200
Speaker 2: both the Jaguars and Bills win, which might be the

2978
02:36:05,280 --> 02:36:10,199
Speaker 2: more likely scenario, not one hundred percent, the Steelers are eliminated,

2979
02:36:10,800 --> 02:36:12,920
Speaker 2: So that nice rally down the stretch in the year

2980
02:36:12,920 --> 02:36:16,840
Speaker 2: of the backup quarterback. I can't imagine their fan base

2981
02:36:16,920 --> 02:36:21,440
Speaker 2: is sleeping too soundly tonight, which brings me to the

2982
02:36:21,480 --> 02:36:25,040
Speaker 2: fan base that is also I don't think sleeping very

2983
02:36:25,120 --> 02:36:27,840
Speaker 2: soundly tonight, and that, of course is the Buffalo Bills

2984
02:36:27,840 --> 02:36:30,879
Speaker 2: we talked about this Friday night. They control their own

2985
02:36:30,879 --> 02:36:35,200
Speaker 2: pullseason destiny Sunday because in Game two seventy two, the

2986
02:36:35,200 --> 02:36:39,240
Speaker 2: Sunday night game, as the Bills visit Miami, all they

2987
02:36:39,240 --> 02:36:44,200
Speaker 2: gotta do is win. If the Bills win, well they

2988
02:36:44,200 --> 02:36:47,680
Speaker 2: win the AFC East. But here's what's crazy. You knew

2989
02:36:47,720 --> 02:36:51,240
Speaker 2: heading into this Sunday game. The scenario was this that

2990
02:36:51,360 --> 02:36:55,760
Speaker 2: if the Pittsburgh Steelers won and the Houston Texans and

2991
02:36:55,800 --> 02:36:59,360
Speaker 2: Indianapolis game did not end a tie, eyes would be

2992
02:36:59,400 --> 02:37:04,560
Speaker 2: on Jacksonville because if Jacksonville wins, well, the Bills are

2993
02:37:04,560 --> 02:37:07,240
Speaker 2: going to find themselves in an all or nothing game.

2994
02:37:08,160 --> 02:37:11,840
Speaker 2: Imagine playing as well as you played down the stretch.

2995
02:37:12,720 --> 02:37:15,040
Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, they're the number three and

2996
02:37:15,160 --> 02:37:18,000
Speaker 2: the odds to get to the super Bowl, and the

2997
02:37:18,040 --> 02:37:20,760
Speaker 2: Bills are going to be a very dangerous out and

2998
02:37:20,760 --> 02:37:23,800
Speaker 2: they've had an excellent season. They're ten and six, They're

2999
02:37:24,040 --> 02:37:28,200
Speaker 2: point differential is plus one thirty three. But because Pittsburgh's

3000
02:37:28,200 --> 02:37:32,920
Speaker 2: already won and Texans Indianapolis game did not end at tie,

3001
02:37:33,320 --> 02:37:35,680
Speaker 2: and if the Jacksonville Jaguars win, and you're gonna know

3002
02:37:35,720 --> 02:37:38,440
Speaker 2: this by the time the Bills kick off on Sunday night,

3003
02:37:38,560 --> 02:37:40,920
Speaker 2: it is an absolute all or nothing game, meaning the

3004
02:37:40,920 --> 02:37:43,880
Speaker 2: Bills win, they still control their destiny. If they win,

3005
02:37:44,320 --> 02:37:47,600
Speaker 2: they would win the AFC East. If they lose and

3006
02:37:47,720 --> 02:37:51,200
Speaker 2: Jacksonville won earlier in the day, the Bills go home.

3007
02:37:51,760 --> 02:37:55,600
Speaker 2: You talk about feast or famine. That is the one

3008
02:37:55,640 --> 02:37:59,160
Speaker 2: fan base, especially with their history. I believe that will

3009
02:37:59,160 --> 02:38:06,640
Speaker 2: not be sleeping very well on Sunday night. Check that tonight. Meanwhile,

3010
02:38:06,680 --> 02:38:09,280
Speaker 2: the Ravens well them in the forty nine ers. They

3011
02:38:09,280 --> 02:38:11,520
Speaker 2: got the number one seed overall, so we'll see what

3012
02:38:11,560 --> 02:38:15,840
Speaker 2: they do. Week eighteen is upon us. Can't wait. It's

3013
02:38:15,879 --> 02:38:17,640
Speaker 2: gonna do it for the Bernie Fraddleshield back on these

3014
02:38:17,640 --> 02:38:20,520
Speaker 2: airwaves next Friday night at eleven pm. Meantime, keep it

3015
02:38:20,560 --> 02:38:23,000
Speaker 2: locked up next to Great Andy ferman A Fox Sports
