Speaker 1: the course of the show.

72
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 3: I think it's pretty interesting that Coca Cola is the

73
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 3: connection there. It's kind of crazy. What do you mean

74
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 3: you all know the story behind Santa.

75
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 2: With Coca Cola?

76
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 4: Tell me, huh, I'm not gonna do it on it air.

77
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 4: Just look it up. Okay, yeah, look it up.

78
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 3: Well, hey, listen, it's pretty interesting because there might be

79
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 3: a kid that's up at three am or six am,

80
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 3: and they might be in the car where, you know,

81
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 3: with their parents, and they're going to look at their

82
00:03:55,600 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 3: parents and be like are they serious, you know, and

83
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 3: could create some drama. So we don't want to do

84
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 3: that on Christmas e. But you know, it is what

85
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 3: it is.

86
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: And taking a look at the Nora Ad Santa Tracker,

87
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: he was last spotted at the North Pole.

88
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 2: He is on his journey.

89
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:18,280
Speaker 1: So I'm looking at the gifts already delivered, looking at

90
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: twenty seven million thus far. So I mean he's making

91
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 1: good strides here.

Speaker 3: I'm looking that out with AI. And they made it

95
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 3: more popular. They didn't invent they didn't invent it, but

96
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 3: they started making it more popular in nineteen thirty one

97
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 3: using ads and stuff like that, popularizing him.

98

00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:49,680

106
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 2: twenty seven million gifts.

107
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,600
Speaker 1: Well he's still like I'm looking at who. Well, there's

108
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: kids all over the place. I mean, maybe do you

109
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 1: have to go back to like refuel Coop. Do you

110
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 1: do you think that he can fit all those gifts

111
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 1: in one trip. He's got to go back and get

112
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,840
Speaker 1: the second. Okay, it's gonna be uh, he's gonna be

113
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: rifling through.

114
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 3: So he's got to keep going back. He's got to

115
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:23,839
Speaker 3: keep going back.

116
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 1: Depends like some of the air, I think he does

117
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,839
Speaker 1: the the heavier gifts first on the trip.

118
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 2: He doesn't know.

119
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 3: I personally think Santa is a freak, you know, So

120
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:36,840
Speaker 3: just keep that one in your hat, you know what

121
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 3: I mean, don't don't you gotta be careful with Santa man,

122
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 3: Like Shorty's been leaving him milk and making him cookies

123
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 3: for a really, really, really long time, and he ain't

124
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 3: eating autumn cookies. He ain't drinking all that milk. So

125
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 3: he got a little bit of extra.

126
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 2: Time since since Coop wants to play grinch.

127
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: Here and uh, and spit all over the freak that

128
00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: is Santa Claus who's simply trying to do his gym.

129
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: He's a super fruit. Cooper, I do have the Uh.

Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm sure there's twenty seven million people and you

135
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 6: well in Russia.

136
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 2: Up to forty million gifts delivered thus far, he said.

137
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 3: Online it says he'll be to us in about twenty

138
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 3: two and a half hours, so that's pretty exciting.

139
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've been so again. We're gonna have updates on

140
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 1: this throughout the course of the show.

141
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 4: I didn't realize he went everywhere in the world, you

142
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 4: know what I mean? Okay, hell yeah, that's interesting.

143
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 1: But by the way, he sees the Bermuda Triangle and

144
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 1: he grabs his crotch and says, screw you, buddy, I'm

145
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: flying right through you and you ain't doing a damn

146
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 1: thing about it.

147
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 3: I guess I would say, doesn't doesn't if that were

148
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 3: the case, wouldn't Santa have to guard his grill and

149
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 3: knuckle up to go deliver his gifts.

150
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 4: Some in some places in the world old.

151
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 3: Me, they might look at him and be like, hey, man,

152
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 3: we don't you know, we ain't really into you. I'm

153
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 3: just saying he might have found himself in the wrong

154
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 3: living room trying to deliver some gifts.

155
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,640

Speaker 4: All right?

173
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 1: So the Pro Bowl rosters were announced yesterday in the

174
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 1: NFL for the Pro Bowl Games which is just so

175
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 1: much fun. And you know, Vic Fangio's got some thoughts.

176
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 1: He was asked whether or not Jordan Davis should have

177
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 1: made the Pro Bowl for the Philadelphia Eagles, and he

178
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 1: had this to say about the entire process.

179
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 7: He should have, for sure. I think they needed to

180
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 7: form a committee for the Pro Bowl. Get a couple

181
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 7: retired coaches, a couple of retired personnel guys, a couple

182
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 7: of retired players that are will take pride in it,

183
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 7: and they name it. Not all everybody and their mother's

184
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 7: got revote.

185
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 1: So Vic Fangio, very upbeat and positive during the holiday season, has.

186
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 3: Been the same for years. Sorry Fangio, it does, yeah, yoh.

187
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 2: It does.

188
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,720
Speaker 1: It does feel like the Pro Bowl is one of

189
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 1: the great whiffs of the Roger Goodell era. It seems

190
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 1: like it has gotten less and less interesting and relevant

191
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 1: and prestigious every single year.

192
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 3: And I don't know, I mean, I don't know what

193
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 3: the relevance is anymore other than just making it an award.

194
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 3: It's not so it's like, okay, all Pro is like

195
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 3: and it's it's weird because I guess all Pro well,

196
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,719
Speaker 3: it's so few, there's few of them, so You'll see

197
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,439
Speaker 3: a guy like Tom Brady, he doesn't have a crazy

198
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:28,080
Speaker 3: amount of All Pro You'd be like, how does he

199
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,199
Speaker 3: not have more All pros? Or you look at Peyton Manning,

200
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 3: You'd be like, how does he not have more First

201
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 3: team All Pros? But I think it's more difficult to

202
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 3: become a first team All Pro than it is to

203
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 3: become a pro bowler. But a pro bowler still in

204
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 3: representation to your season, basically says.

205
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 4: You're you're an All Star.

206
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:53,719
Speaker 2: I don't know.

207
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 4: If it's the equivalent of All Pro.

208
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 3: I don't know if it carries the same weight as

209
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 3: being an All Pro. But being a pro bowler is

210
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 3: very It's prestigious. It's a prestige. It has always been

211
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 3: known as a prestigious distinction to have because it represents

212
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 3: you being one of the elite. You got bonuses connected

213
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 3: to being a pro bowler. You have, you know, contractual leverage,

214
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 3: you know you have negotiating power if you're a pro bowler.

215
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 3: So there's things that come with the distinction. And so

216
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 3: to me, the game was always the game, and I

217
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,719
Speaker 3: thought the game was for us as players. It was

218
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,440
Speaker 3: an opportunity to make more money, but it was an

219
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 3: opportunity to get over the water and be with the

220
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:56,360
Speaker 3: other elite players. Yeah, and to me, that was the

221
00:10:56,400 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 3: prestige of it as far as the product for for

222
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 3: the fans. People can plained about the Pro Bowl game

223
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 3: when I was playing, you know, they complained about it like, oh,

224
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 3: they don't play da da da, And they're right. You know,

225
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 3: guys generally started playing hard if it was a competitive

226
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 3: game in the second half, or you come out in

227
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 3: the second half, be like, all right, it's the second halb.

228
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 3: If you're the I can recall being on teams that

229
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 3: were winning.

230
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 4: I was. I think I was on one team where

231
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 4: we were we were down.

232
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 3: By a ton, I mean a ton, and we came

233
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 3: back in won, and it's that second half. It's the

234
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 3: second half like that used to be really really competitive

235
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 3: because you know, guys will be on the sideline they

236
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 3: start telling you'd be like, hey, man, you know we

237
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 3: get another fifteen twenty g's if we win in this game. Man,

238
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 3: cas start looking at each other like, yeah, you're right, man.

239
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,439
Speaker 3: That bill got to bill pretty high at that hotel

240
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 3: for that Waiki Key trip.

241
00:11:58,240 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 4: You know.

242
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 3: But but here's the thing, like, guys with like the Steelers,

243
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 3: which I love this this tradition about them, the Steelers,

244
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,839
Speaker 3: if one of them made the Pro Bowl, their whole

245
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 3: crew came, so at least for the linebackers. So Joey

246
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,199
Speaker 3: Porter was making the Pro Bowl, which that's how I

247
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,719
Speaker 3: ended up hanging out smoking with the loonies by the way,

248
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 3: which is cool, Like I got the chief with that,

249
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:24,439
Speaker 3: I got five on it people. But they was all there,

250
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 3: you know, rest of the piece to Clark Hagan's, Like

251
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 3: Clark was there one year, I think, I believe Jason

252
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 3: Gilden made the Pro Bowl and Joey made the Pro

253
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 3: I believe, But the whole linebacking corps was there. So

254
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 3: they were just there chilling and that was That was

255
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,960
Speaker 3: pretty cool that that was there. Like every like, guys

256
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 3: had different traditions. I told you about the rookie tradition

257
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 3: at the Bar. I remember my first year getting there,

258
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 3: and I was so excited because I, you know, obviously

259
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 3: is my first Pro Bowl, and and you hear so

260
00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 3: much about the experience of it. So when I got

261
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 3: and I got to my room and got my stuff down,

262
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 3: and I can hear all the noise in the banter.

263
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 3: I look outside my window and you know, there's a

264
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 3: ton of people at the pool, So why I do

265
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,439
Speaker 3: I go running my ass down to the pool, not knowing,

266
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 3: not knowing what I was getting myself into. But I

267
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 3: go down to the pool. I walk up Donovan McNab

268
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 3: and standing you got six foot three, two hundred and

00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 3: this is a car pay like I could buy a

316
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 3: car with it, Like I just don't understand. I started

317
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 3: popping off, and they're like, mister Arrington, see what happens

318
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 3: is is that did you give you a room number

319
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 3: out at any point in time? And I was like, oh,

320
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 3: then it all starts running back to you like like

321
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 3: the usual suspects, right like he was telling the story

322
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 3: and then you realize he was talking about stuff that

323
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 3: was in the room and he wasn't he wasn't really

324
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 3: talking about things in real life.

325
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 2: You dropped the bug of the floor and said McNab

326
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:20,359
Speaker 2: on the bottom.

327
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 3: And they said McNab on the bottom, bro. And so

328
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 3: what happens is they passed your room. They passed your

329
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 3: room number out, and every time they do a room charge,

330
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 3: they charge it to your room.

331
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,360
Speaker 4: Oh no, oh.

332
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, every rookie that so so I went two more.

333
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 4: Times and that was it's real. It's real.

334
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 5: Now.

335
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 3: I never did it to anybody, but I knew what

336
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 3: it was and I would be looking at him like, dang,

337
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 3: write a passage, bro, I want to tell you. I

338
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 3: want to tell you. But you got to enjoy it

339
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 3: for what it's worth, because it's part of the experience,

340
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 3: Like like you didn't think that there would be ups

341
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 3: and at the Pro Bowl, but there were, and that

342
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 3: down was when you looked at that bill, you know,

343
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,120
Speaker 3: and so I didn't want to take that away from them.

344
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:10,400
Speaker 4: The next two years that I.

345
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:14,920
Speaker 3: Went, and so yeah, that was I would watch the

346
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 3: I'd be at the bar, I get there, go to

347
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 3: the bar, da da da, I get introduced. First round

348
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 3: would be on me, you know, anybody who came down.

349
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 3: First round was on you. But my room was safe,

350
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,160
Speaker 3: so it was cool. The next two times that I went,

351
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 3: you know, I went as a vet, and it's like,

352
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,879
Speaker 3: you know, they start to expect that you're going to

353
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,200
Speaker 3: be there and that's a part of what you have

354
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 3: going on.

355
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 4: But dang, I see the rookie, I'd be like, man.

356
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 3: I was like, you know, inflation hit it's going to

357
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 3: be a little bit more expensive than it was last year.

358
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 3: Like this dude might get hit for twenty twenty five. Like, man,

359
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:51,719
Speaker 3: good luck with that.

360
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 2: Now you know why people don't go because of injury.

361
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 4: I'm not going.

362
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't pay ten thousand dollars to Donovan McNabb.

363
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:02,360
Speaker 4: Can have another Uh maybe something Maybe somebody.

364
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 3: Told situations if I was not made aware of.

365
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 2: It, guess because the thing is.

366
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 1: And by the way, this year, if anybody wondering, is

367
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:12,880
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl back in Hawaii?

368
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 2: No, absolutely not know.

369
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,399
Speaker 1: It'll be at the Convention Center, the Moscow and Center

370
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:17,639
Speaker 1: in San Francisco.

371
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 2: That's where the Pro Bowl is going to be at.

372
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 1: It's going to be a seven on seven flag football

373
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,399
Speaker 1: game with a skills competition attached to it.

374
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 2: It's going to be on the Tuesday of Super Bowl Week.

375
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 1: And so I just I look at it and I go,

376
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:38,160
Speaker 1: there's something that's just lacking and less prestigious about it.

377
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 1: And look, congratulations to all the all the players that

378
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 1: got I mean, that's still something you can you can

379
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 1: say moving forward, and you're always going to be known

380
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,199
Speaker 1: yourself as a three time Pro Bowler and that carries

381
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,640
Speaker 1: weight that's something, but I can't well, yeah, I think

382
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 1: so I can nowadays.

383
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 4: I was a three time Pro Bowl honestly.

384
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 1: Yes, because I I tell you, yeah, because I tell people,

385
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 1: Between you and I, we have three Pro Bowls.

386
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 2: So it's important because it does a lot for me.

387
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,440
Speaker 1: And so now I look at the way this whole

388
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,159
Speaker 1: thing has been constructed and the way it's been operated,

389
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: and it just feels like they're just holding on to

390
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 1: it because it's tradition and it's just lacking, like it's

391
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 1: not even. It feels like a blip on the radar,

392
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:23,640
Speaker 1: and it feels like they're just kind of going through

393
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 1: the motions when man, it used to be, as you

394
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:30,280
Speaker 1: pointed out, an opportunity to go to Hawaii, take your friends,

395
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,280
Speaker 1: take your family, take you know people there, be celebrated,

396
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: be on the beach, you know, play at a Loja stadium,

397
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,639
Speaker 1: like all of that was fun and you looked forward

398
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 1: to it. And Roger Goodell had this thought, and this

399
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 1: was him saying this himself that the reason why they

400
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,879
Speaker 1: moved the Pro Bowl to a week earlier before the

401
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,360
Speaker 1: Super Bowl was because he didn't like the idea of

402
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl and exhibition game being the last thing

403
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 1: you saw from that NFL season. And I look at

404
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,719
Speaker 1: it and I go, Okay, you understand the theory. You

405
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 1: want the Crescendo to be the super Bowl, to be

406
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: the biggest game, but there is something too. Hey, after

407
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:13,360
Speaker 1: that's all done, let's celebrate everybody, Like, let's celebrate every

408
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,199
Speaker 1: team because one of the cool things growing up as

409
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,960
Speaker 1: a fan, it was like, man, there's my favorite team,

410
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: and how do you know that you can see their

411
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,160
Speaker 1: helmet on an NFC jersey or an AFC jersey.

412
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:24,919
Speaker 4: Like they were, well, we wore our helmet.

00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,359
Speaker 3: We wore the we wore the Pro Bowl uniform, but

00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 3: we wore our helmet.

416
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,359
Speaker 4: Yeah. So and they were like jersey giveaways.

417
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,439
Speaker 3: We used to give our helmets away, you know, like

Speaker 3: we would trade our helmets. AWESO on your helmet, give

427
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 3: I don't know what you're thinking, what's going on in

Speaker 3: I'll take that fab and five.

430
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:06,919
Speaker 1: My buddy told me this one time, and he was

431
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,920
Speaker 1: one hundred percent spot on. He said, the great thing

432
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 1: about getting on a flight to Hawaii is that everybody's

433
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,679
Speaker 1: in a good mood because nobody's going there on like

434
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,639
Speaker 1: a work trip per se. Nobody's going like people are

435
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 1: going there because it's Hawaiian and they're going on vacation.

436
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 1: He's like, you never have to worry about anybody being

437
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 1: angry or antsy or anything like. People going to Hawaii

438
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,480

441
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:34,560

00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 3: like a little kid.

515
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:10,880
Speaker 4: Bro. I was like, I didn't even know what to say.

Speaker 1: He's top five my favorite player all time for me,

519
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,200
Speaker 1: Lawrence Taylor. Yeah, I don't care who he played for.

520
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: I don't care that he was unbelievable slot there.

521
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 3: That's where I met money Line. That's where I met him.

522
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,159
Speaker 3: That was pretty cool too. I ain't gonna lie, but

523
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 3: that's like that's almost like the place where it would

524
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,439
Speaker 3: have been. It made since right, Like that was like

525
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 3: super big time. Like first time I ever saw him

526
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 3: was at the Pro Bowl and I was a Pro

527
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 3: bowler seeing the goat, So yeah, that was that was

528
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 3: a pretty cool That was a pretty cool experience, super

529
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:53,960
Speaker 3: super cool experience.

530
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 4: Man.

531
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 3: So I don't know if they get the same interaction

532
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 3: with one another, I would say that's the most important part.

533
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 3: But let's let's to me, it's like, okay, give them

534
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,480
Speaker 3: a five day trip. Make sure it's a five day

535
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:12,640
Speaker 3: trip that you capture the content of it and use

536
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 3: it for like the I don't know, use it for

537
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,639
Speaker 3: the beginning of the league year, or use it in

538
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 3: the draft, because ultimately the draft represents the beginning and

539
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 3: the Pro Bowl represents kind of like a rite of passage.

540
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 4: If you're if you get drafted right.

541
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,919
Speaker 3: Draft draftees are the guys that are considered to be

542
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,880
Speaker 3: the most elite, So maybe like use the features that

543
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 3: you have front that you record from the Pro Bowl

544
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 3: and use it there.

545
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:43,320
Speaker 4: But as far as the Pro bowl itself.

546
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 3: Maybe just do a show, right, do a show where

547
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 3: you have these top analysts, you know, talking about the

548
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:57,199
Speaker 3: team and show their highlights, talk about them, you know,

549
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,919
Speaker 3: maybe some features like a personal feature, like make it

550
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 3: the length of a game.

551
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 4: And sell it.

552
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,719
Speaker 3: I think it would be better to watch the substance

553
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,879
Speaker 3: of what those guys did, because some of these guys

554
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,679
Speaker 3: you don't know for what it's worth of Some of

555
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:15,760
Speaker 3: them you might have not have really watched them. So

556
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 3: it might give you the opportunity to see who they are.

557
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 3: You might you know, build a new fan off of it.

558
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,320
Speaker 3: You know that that could be. That could be how

559
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 3: it works out the best way for them. But this

560
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:31,439
Speaker 3: this all this like this, this kind of gimmicky type stuff,

561
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,240
Speaker 3: I think it devalues it quite a bit.

562
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:34,320

00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 1: is the fact that JJ McCarthy is going to miss

628
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 1: yet another game because of an injury. Here was his

629
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 1: head coach, Kevin O'Connell talking about the latest issue.

630
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 10: Give you guys an update, JJ McCarthy. We did continue

631
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 10: to get further imaging beyond the initial X ray and

632
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 10: beyond even the initial MRI, got some further imaging and

633
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 10: it was discovered he does have a very very small

634
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 10: hairline fracture that was discovered in his hand. We are

635
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 10: not expecting to have him this week. I do not

636
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 10: think this is anything that will require surgery. You know,

637
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 10: similar kind of recovery's kind of similar to a bone bruce,

638
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 10: but obviously there is a small hairline fracture in there.

639
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:06,840
Speaker 4: Said it after the game.

640
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 10: I've been really really happy and proud of the way

641
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 10: JJ through the kind of final stands of the season

642
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 10: here has has really really took some big steps and grown.

643
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 10: And it's been a blast, you know, being with him

644
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 10: every day and kind of being along that ride with him.

645
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 10: Although we've lost you know, time to continue that throughout

646
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 10: the season and and we're you know, experiencing again here

647
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 10: on a fast opportunity type short week. That doesn't take

648
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 10: away from the growth we've seen from JJ. So he's

649
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 10: he's dialed in, he's you know out, he was out

650
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 10: here for the walkthroughs, you know, being a part of

651
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 10: things and wants to stay one hundred percent locked and

652
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 10: loaded in the hopes of returning next week hopefully.

653
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 1: So that was Kevin O'Connell, the Vikings coach, talking about

654
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 1: the latest on JJ. McCarthy's going to miss another start.

655
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 4: This what hand? Which hand? He said, the hand you

656
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 4: have more than one hand?

657
00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,080
Speaker 2: Right hand which had throng hand. I believe, yeah, I

658
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 2: mean I can't imagine, you know, that would have.

659
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,239
Speaker 1: This would be the This would be the plan if

660
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 1: it was the left hand, but it was the throwing hand.

661
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 1: They were kind of messing with it on the sideline

662
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,240
Speaker 1: and he kind of grimaced it and pulled away, So

663
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 1: obviously you know he was in some pain.

664
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 2: But my thought on this is.

665
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 1: At the very least they've got to bring in a

666
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 1: veteran or somebody for next year because you cannot trust

667
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 1: that he's going to be available on the field. This

668
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:32,120
Speaker 1: is similar in a lot of ways to the Anthony

669
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 1: Richardson stuff with the Colts, to where look, there would

670
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:38,239
Speaker 1: be these glimpses of man like there's a lot of

671
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,480
Speaker 1: potential here and for some reason just couldn't stay on

672
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 1: the field and look.

673
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 3: But I mean Anthony Richardson is more of a in

674
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:52,200
Speaker 3: my estimation, a more dramatic like a more dramatic example.

675
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 2: Well because has faced on an exercise man in the

676
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:56,280
Speaker 2: locker room.

677
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,840
Speaker 4: Well and he was tired after a plane tapped out.

678
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 4: I mean that would probably be where it got is.

679
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 2: Extreme as and he'll never live that down.

680
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 3: He really won't. But JJ McCarthy, I don't think is

681
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 3: as maybe much considered as much of a wild card,

682
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 3: so to speak out of the two. But you're right,

683
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,959
Speaker 3: it is it is a situation where there is a

684
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,960
Speaker 3: mystery there that's connected to him, and that mystery is

685
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 3: can he transition into being? And here's where I'll say

686
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 3: the stakes are higher for McCarthy than they were for

687
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:35,959
Speaker 3: Anthony Richardson is that Anthony Richardson was coming in and

688
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 3: there was really the expectation was because he was a

689
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,920
Speaker 3: high draft pick. The expectation wasn't because they got rid

690
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 3: of someone of note for him to make way for

691
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,880
Speaker 3: him to play. You know, they had that that whole

692
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 3: line of older, older qbs who were playing when Richardson

693
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 3: came in. For McCarthy, you know, you had you had

694
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:03,800
Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins, you had Donald, Daniel Jones, like there were

695
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 3: there were players that they could have chose. They could

696
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:11,960
Speaker 3: have chose to stay with Sam Donald, which now looks

697
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:15,320
Speaker 3: as though they probably should have just stayed with Sam Donald.

698
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:15,600
Speaker 4: Yeah.

699
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,960
Speaker 3: Uh so I think that the stakes were higher for

700
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:23,359
Speaker 3: for JJ McCarthy just based off of who was there

701
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 3: and what was you know, the setup for it.

702
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,560
Speaker 4: But but go ahead, I'm sorry.

703
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,239
Speaker 1: Right, no, no, no, no, I mean I think you're

704
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:36,880
Speaker 1: one hundred percent spot on. They really took a gamble

705
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 1: on this, and it appears at least as of now.

706
00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 1: And I know Daniel Jones got hurt, But if you're asking,

707
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 1: all right, who's been a better quarterback this year? Sam

708
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:49,320
Speaker 1: Donald or JJ McCarthy? Sam Donald when he was playing,

709
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 1: who was a better quarterback? Daniel Jones or JJ McCarthy,

710
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:57,280
Speaker 1: And it was Daniel Jones. And you know, Kirk Cousins

711
00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:01,439
Speaker 1: is playing like it just it just feels like Minnesota.

712
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:03,520
Speaker 1: And we talked about this a couple of weeks ago

713
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 1: that Diana Rassini had reported at the time in the

714
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,879
Speaker 1: off season that Minnesota viewed this as a quote three

715
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:13,080
Speaker 1: year window, that this was the year to develop JJ

716
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 1: McCarthy and really make a run at this thing.

717
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:17,680
Speaker 2: And the problem is.

718
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:19,799
Speaker 1: You haven't really been able to develop him because he

719
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 1: hasn't been able to stay on the field. There just

720
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 1: feels like something pops up all the time. And I

721
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:26,839
Speaker 1: don't know how if you're a Vikings fan, if you're

722
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:29,920
Speaker 1: a member of that organization, whether you're Quescia Dopa Menza

723
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:33,160
Speaker 1: who's the GM, or Kevin O'Connell, you go into next

724
00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:36,320
Speaker 1: year and say, yeah, I know that the plan's working,

725
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,160
Speaker 1: Like this is exactly where we want to be. I mean,

726
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:41,360
Speaker 1: justin Jefferson looks like he's I mean, he's frustrated.

727
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,319
Speaker 4: He had a miserable year. Yeah, like a miserable year.

728
00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 2: And so that that's where I look at it and

729
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:48,759
Speaker 2: I go, this is not this.

730
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:52,000
Speaker 1: Just has not worked out thus far, and now it

731
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 1: all goes into next year.

732
00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 3: They're probably gonna have to bor I mean, obviously best

733
00:35:56,760 --> 00:36:00,400
Speaker 3: case scenario is working out means they're having a mediate

734
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:03,239
Speaker 3: success right now. But maybe it is that third year.

735
00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:06,279
Speaker 3: Next year is that third year, and he is now

736
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 3: considered a vat you know, like you said on the

737
00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:12,400
Speaker 3: show yesterday, three and a half. That's that's the average

738
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 3: three and a half. So for most guys, they're on

739
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,880
Speaker 3: their last year of employment in the league, you know,

740
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 3: isn't it So Yeah, So for him it is a tremendous, tremendously.

741
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 4: Big year, pivotal year for him.

742
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:33,040
Speaker 3: And sometimes you got to live through the growing pains,

743
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,359
Speaker 3: you know, Sometimes that's just what you gotta do. And

744
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 3: guys see things differently, they handle things differently, and you

745
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,200
Speaker 3: get the results of what different is. I mean, God,

746
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 3: look at look at Daniel Jones, or look at look

747
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:50,279
Speaker 3: at Sam Darnald. You know, these guys did not have

748
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,840
Speaker 3: the careers that they're having. You know, well, at least

749
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 3: Daniel Jones earlier in the year. But Sam Darnald, like

750
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,360
Speaker 3: he hasn't set the world on fire, but he certainly

751
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:04,000
Speaker 3: has been a positive contributor to a very successful team,

752
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:07,319
Speaker 3: which I don't think anybody saw this team in the

753
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 3: Seattle Seahawks coming out and being the type of team

754
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,480
Speaker 3: that they are this year. So I mean, he's a

755
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:17,279
Speaker 3: he's a main ingredient to two winning seasons. So you

756
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:20,719
Speaker 3: know it just sometimes guys need time. I mean, look

757
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 3: at uh, look at the kid in in Jacksonville right now.

758
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:27,840
Speaker 3: You know, he's he's bawling, and you know it was

759
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:29,400
Speaker 3: kind of is he.

760
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:33,360
Speaker 4: Is Trey at the Trevor the guy? Is he? Is

761
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:34,439
Speaker 4: he not the guy?

762
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:34,799
Speaker 1: Like?

763
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,480
Speaker 3: So you know that's just kind of you know, you

764
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 3: got to see Sea how it's all going to play out.
