The World Series is tied up 49 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: at two wins apiece, but our lead is not from 50 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: the World Series. Instead, it is from the Dirty Dirty 51 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 1: Birds of Atlanta. Inching closer to the trade deadline as 52 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: it is less than a week away. Now today is Wednesday, 53 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: and be next Tuesday. It is coming Tuesday, the trade deadline. 54 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: So we do the shuffle. You gotta do the shuffle. 55 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 1: Now we're talking about the quarterback shuffle. Here is what 56 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: we're talking about. And a story has popped up which 57 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: is out of the files of the captain obvious Department 58 00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 1: of Sports Media. As we inch closer and closer to 59 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: the trade deadline. Time is running out. Time is running out, 60 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: and NFL teams have to make those last minute moves. 61 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: The November fourth trade deadline and a quarterback has emerged 62 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: on the market. Who is it, Well, that would be 63 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins. Shocker of yes, the guy that went out 64 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: there and wrote the vomit comment against the Miami Dolphins. 65 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 1: So he reportedly wants to start. He realizes Atlanta loves 66 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,919 Speaker 1: them some Michael Pennix Junior, so they're not that interested 67 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,359 Speaker 1: in starting him, even though he was an emergency starter 68 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: because Penex was hurt. So the story is, from what 69 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: we understand, that the Falcon backup quarterback desires an opportunity 70 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: to start elsewhere? Is that really a that shocking that 71 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 1: someone who's a backup wants to play? Okay, However, they 72 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: say that no trade appears imminent or eminent imminent now 73 00:04:55,360 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: why because Cousins is making so much money, they'd have 74 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 1: to take money out of Fort Knox in order to 75 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 1: make the trade happen. So that's a good jumping off point. 76 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: As we get closer to the trade deadline, let us 77 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 1: discuss the question does a Falcon Kirk Cousins trade budge 78 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 1: the needle would a trade of Kirk Cousins Budge the 79 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 1: needle in the NFL. So on this one, I've got QBC, 80 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: Drew Carey, and Spanish American War and we will combine 81 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 1: all of these things together and we are going to 82 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: have a colossal good times. What we're gonna have? So 83 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 1: number one, I said, number one, Number all right, I'm 84 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: giving this one stink eye is what I'm giving it. Okay, 85 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins, if you happen to have the misfortune of 86 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: watching him play quarterback this past weekend against the Miami Dolphins, 87 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: you know where I'm going with this. Kirk Cousins had 88 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: a showcase. He was in the display case for the 89 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: entire r NFL to watch against a pathetic, gutless Miami 90 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: Dolphin team. Even Stevie Meatballs can see how bad the 91 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 1: Dolphins are this year. And what happened. Cousins went out 92 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: there and slipped on a banana peal, He did a 93 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: face plant, and he essentially it was on a live 94 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: infomercial for everyone in the NFL. Everyone's watching where they're 95 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,719 Speaker 1: gonna watch the tape afterwards against the Dolphins. This was 96 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: a segment on QVC. He was on the home shopping channel. 97 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: There and the phone lines nobody called, nobody called bat 98 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:41,919 Speaker 1: sign and Dad giveaway. There's just not interesting. This was 99 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 1: supposed to be Kirk cousins comeback concert, a bunch of 100 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: beautiful throws. It was gonna be glorious, right, a symphony 101 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 1: for Kirk Cousins. Instead, it looked like an open mic 102 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:59,479 Speaker 1: night at the local Applebee's on a Monday. Did not 103 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 1: go well. No touchdowns, no juice, a lot of checkdowns, 104 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 1: a lot of just blah blah blah blah blah blah 105 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: blah blah football Now regardless, Right, here's the thing. He's 106 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: still a quarterback and he's got he had success in 107 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: the NFL, so somebody always takes the bait. Now, the 108 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: question is would Atlanta be willing to do it? They 109 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: don't have to do it, and it's better to get 110 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 1: something than nothing. If you look at the contractual situation 111 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: of Kirk Cousins, his days are limited there now looking around, 112 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: as a distant relative of Nostradamus and friend of Nostra Denis, 113 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: you look around the NFL and there are a few 114 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: lonely Hearts club members. When it comes to the quarterback position, 115 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: you're talking about the Raiders. Gino Smith can't play. The 116 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: Browns they haven't had a quarterback since Bernie Cozar. The Saints, 117 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: Where have you gone, Drew Brees or Lonely Hearts miss you? 118 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: Those teams are dumpster diving franchises. So it doesn't make 119 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: a lot of sense. You're not going anywhere. Why would 120 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: you acquire a veteran, high paid quarterback at the trade deadline. 121 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: It's one of those things. It's like it's like being 122 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: on the dating app at one fifty eight in the morning, 123 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 1: and you know you're not finding the one. You're finding 124 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: a one, but you're not finding the one. You know 125 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, You're just looking for somebody to keep 126 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: it warm. That's essentially what those teams are looking for 127 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: at this point. This just get us through the rest 128 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: of the season. We'll get a high, shiny draft pick 129 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: and that'll be that. So what does that mean? Well, 130 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 1: when you continue to look off in the wild blue 131 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 1: yonder around the NFL, you realize that there's only really 132 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 1: two teams that have any kind of intrigue when it 133 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: comes to a possible Kirk Cousins trade. Now, I'm going 134 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: to make my elevator pitch and I want to see 135 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,199 Speaker 1: if you agree or disagree. So those two teams are 136 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 1: Survey says forty nine Ers, Vikings, that's it, that's all. 137 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 1: That's not a list, Terry and England. That's a big board. 138 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 1: That is a big board, not a list, a big board. 139 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:06,319 Speaker 1: So the forty nine ers have Brock Purdy who's limping 140 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,559 Speaker 1: around and when he's played, he hasn't played that well. 141 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: Now he's hurt, so he's not playing and he got 142 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 1: paid and all that, and then so he got that 143 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 1: and he's limping around on one stick, on one leg, 144 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: and it's like he's like at this point, he's like 145 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 1: him and Mac Jones. Mac Jones has been playing a lot. 146 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: Mac had some decent games to start. He's fallen off 147 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: the side of the road there lately, and he's kind 148 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: of like a rental car that's got four flat tires. 149 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: It's not good to look at and all that. Then 150 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: you've got Viking red shirt rookie JJ McCarthy, who's so bad. 151 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: How bad is he so bad that he looked over 152 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: his head to the point where Carson Wentz was starting 153 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 1: ahead of a healthy JJ McCarthy, which is not a 154 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: vote of conference, which is not a vote of conference. 155 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: Now McCarthy's a red shirt freshman, he's supposed to come back. 156 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 1: The Vikings are massive underdogs against the Detroit Lions this 157 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 1: weekend because there's his thirty seven. He isn't a long 158 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: term savior for anybody. However, you need a new band aid, 159 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: you know, take off your Hello Kiddie band aid. You 160 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: can put Kirk Cousins on right there. And he's got 161 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:24,839 Speaker 1: a pulse and coaches love the father flannagain. We're gonna 162 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: fix this guy, make him better with our team, and 163 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: I can coach him up and all that stuff. And 164 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: quarterback desperation is undefeated. The Bengals went out and traded 165 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: for Joe Flacco, who got benched by the Cleveland Browns. 166 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 1: So if Joe Flacco can get benched by the Cleveland 167 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 1: Browns and then end up being relocated to you know who, 168 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: the Bengals, then okay. So Cousins knows it. The flea 169 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 1: market is open, and it is really the balls in 170 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: the court of Atlanta. Whether or not they want to 171 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,839 Speaker 1: deal with it, and do they really value Cousins, is 172 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,960 Speaker 1: better just to leave them. Let them leave, or you'll 173 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: get some kind of compensation pick. I believe that's how 174 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: that works. Now, speaking of the trade deadline, we go 175 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:14,359 Speaker 1: to Jersey conflicting reports regarding the Giants edge rusher Keevan Thibodeaux, 176 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 1: the old Oregon duck Kevon Thibodeaux, who has been described 177 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: as a name to watch in quotes, name to watch 178 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 1: in quotes during the upcoming trading season. Now state sponsor 179 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: propped the news service of the NFL. NFL Media. They 180 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: tell us that the teams have called the Giants trying 181 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: to poach Cavan Thibodeau and inquire about trading for his services, 182 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 1: much to the dismay of our friend the movie man, 183 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 1: and they have been told the Giants have no interest, 184 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: no interest in discussing a trade involving the fifth overall 185 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 1: pick in the twenty twenty two I believe it was 186 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 1: NFL draft. So we've got conflicting reports. You've got he said, 187 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: he said, question in for you, and I'm gonna answer 188 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 1: it first. But I'm gonna pose the question and then 189 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 1: i'm gonna answer. If you want to call up, there's 190 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 1: a line that opened up, so I'll give out the 191 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 1: number in a minute. But here it is is Giants 192 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: edge rusher Cavan Thibodeau available or not, because again one 193 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: report said implied these available, and then immediately there was 194 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: well the Giants are not willing to trade him and 195 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: all this stuff, all right, So the Giants, what they're 196 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: doing is they're playing a kid's game. So you know 197 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 1: what it is. That's right, pikaboo, that's what they're playing. 198 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 1: They're playing peekaboo with the truth. You know it and 199 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 1: I know it. This is what we call a Drew 200 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 1: Carey situation. Now what is a Drew carry situation? When 201 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: it comes to the NFL trade deadline, if the price 202 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: is right, you can get the showcase showdown. In this case, 203 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:50,319 Speaker 1: that would be Kevan Thibodeau or go. You offer the 204 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 1: right package and all of a sudden you get to play. 205 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:55,839 Speaker 1: This ain't plinko. We're not playing plinko, if you know 206 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So, linebacker is actually something that the 207 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 1: Giants have a lot of know it by the way 208 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 1: their defense has played most of the year, But they 209 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 1: have some name brand players. Brian Burns has been a 210 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: very good player on bad teams most of his career, 211 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,439 Speaker 1: and they drafted Abdul Carter and they've they've got him. 212 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: So that was all after they went out and drafted 213 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: Kevan Thibodau, who was a giant bust to begin his 214 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: NFL career, and he's this call like it is, he's 215 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 1: mostly been roster spam. You're in the number five overall 216 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: pick in the draft. He's got no All pros, no 217 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 1: Pro bowls, and the Pro Bowl they played TikTok toe. 218 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 1: You can't even get in a competitive game of tic 219 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: tac toe and flag football. My god. So the point 220 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: is they have some wiggle room here to trade the 221 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: trade the player. Now. The issue is they they were 222 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: gambling that this was going to be a breakout year 223 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 1: Kavon was going to go. And this was the year 224 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: they picked up the fifth year options. So they're like, well, 225 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: this is gonna be great. He'll be so good, he'll 226 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: be so great. And they're still waiting, and they're waiting, 227 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 1: and they're waiting and they're waiting. If somebody dangles a 228 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: nice big bag of goodies, I mean a lot of 229 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 1: goodies in there, then the Giants, let's say they're not 230 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 1: putting their phone on airplane mode, they're gonna respond. They're 231 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 1: going to read the comments and all that stuff, and 232 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 1: that's that. So good luck. So yeah, technically, if you 233 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 1: want to get on a technicality, technically he's not available 234 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 1: Covon Thibodeau until he is. Until he is. And then 235 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: the translation for those of you a little slow in 236 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:39,480 Speaker 1: the back of the room. Everyone's available at the right price. 237 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 1: Everyone's available at the right price. All right, now, final point. 238 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: We go now to Houston, the home of mister Irrigation 239 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: and even the Terrible and so many other great contributors 240 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: to the show. Despite my very passionate, spicy commentary over 241 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: the years about the cheating astro, So I saw this, 242 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 1: and this was in my wheelhouse. Now, to be fair, 243 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: I did not see this initially. This was sent to 244 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: me by a listener who I believe is name Mike, 245 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: who does not live in Houston, but lives in the 246 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 1: suburbs of Houston. He says, Ben, did you see this? 247 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 1: He sent me an email this afternoon and he said, 248 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 1: the Texans. So this is the coach of the Texans, 249 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: Demiko Ryans. Now, Dimiko Ryans lectured the media, the beat 250 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: writers that cover the Texans, and Mike wanted me to 251 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 1: see this. So the Texans who as a team have 252 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 1: been luke warm. I think we can all agree on 253 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: that they've been luke warm most of the season. They've 254 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: shown some signs of life, but not consistently in just 255 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 1: another run of the mill mediocre team. However, despite being 256 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: lukewarm the roster, they are boiling hot at least the 257 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 1: coach is and Dimiko Ryans, who has said many times 258 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: he doesn't care about the media, consumes the media. Yes, 259 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: Dimiko Ryans gave a dissertation on media coverage and among 260 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: the things that he had to say, Ryan's was very upset. 261 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: Dimiko Ryans that the media, he said, everybody wants to 262 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: write a hot story. The Texans coach said, and most 263 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: of the time it's negative stuff that people want to 264 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 1: talk about. Nobody wants to talk about the positive stuff 265 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: that happens. 266 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 2: Now. 267 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 1: I added this last part boohoo hoo question coach Demico 268 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 1: Ryans of the Houston Texans. He says, the media thrives 269 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: around the Texans on negative coverage, a very into negativity. 270 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: What is your read on this one? What is your 271 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 1: read on this one? So on this one, if you 272 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,479 Speaker 1: open up the textbook to page thirteen of the textbook, 273 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 1: and you read right at the very top. It is 274 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 1: a textbook case of I don't care, but let me 275 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 1: present a research paper for five minutes on why I 276 00:16:55,120 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 1: don't care? Or go you care? Right? You care? So 277 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 1: you either ignore the noise. Might you ignore the noise 278 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: the concophony of sounds, or you don't. There's no need 279 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 1: for a ted talk. You're not the editor, you're not 280 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 1: the program director of the media. You're not I don't 281 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 1: know what podcasters have. I don't know they just have 282 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:23,159 Speaker 1: nobody do it by themselves, but whatever, And you're not 283 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: there to teach the media to avoid negative headline. It's 284 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: like you're trying to reinvent the wheel, Like, what are 285 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:36,880 Speaker 1: you doing, Demiko Ryan? Seriously, for years it has been 286 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:40,199 Speaker 1: if it bleeds, it leaves. Now why is that phrase 287 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: popular in mass media? If it bleeds at least? And 288 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 1: why do I always say the equivalent of that in 289 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: sports radio the better stories in the losing locker room? Now, 290 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 1: why do I use that phrase? I use that phrase 291 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 1: because it's it's the human condition, is what it is. 292 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 1: And the phrase just give you an example of how 293 00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 1: far this goes back the phrase if it bleeds it 294 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:04,920 Speaker 1: leads originated in the eighteen hundreds. Do you understand that 295 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,919 Speaker 1: we're talking about the eighteen nineties during the Spanish American 296 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: War And I'm not making this up. You can literally 297 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: do your own research. Shall google it, ai it, do 298 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: whatever you want. This goes back to the Spanish American 299 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:23,680 Speaker 1: War of the late eighteen nineties when the newspaper magnet 300 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 1: William Randolph Hurst, and if you've ever been to the 301 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,679 Speaker 1: Hurst Castle, you know this guy was loaded. Okay, So 302 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: William Randolph Hearst Hurst realized in the newspaper business that 303 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 1: when you sensationalize a story of violence what happened, more 304 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: people wanted to read about it, and therefore you sold 305 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: more newspapers and trickle down economics, you made more money. 306 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 1: So Damiko Ryans is acting like this is some kind 307 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 1: of new phenomena. It goes back to the eighteen nineties, dude, like, seriously, 308 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,199 Speaker 1: this is how the media has operated. I would say 309 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 1: it goes back to the case in the Angerthal days 310 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,680 Speaker 1: when they would draw the saber toothed tiger on the 311 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: wall of the cave to warn to warn the others 312 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 1: to avoid the saber toothed tiger. You get the point. 313 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 1: So it's again, it's just human nature. That's my point. 314 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 1: People don't click on stories that say Texans are playing great, 315 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: everything's fine. They don't click on that. You click on 316 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: Sky is falling, Texans blow, they're in trouble. You click 317 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 1: on that story, and you make money based on the clicks. 318 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: So that's how it works. It's essentially factory settings, is 319 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,199 Speaker 1: what it is. And because of evolution or whatever you 320 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 1: want to call it, we're all even though we're all 321 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 1: different wink wink, nod not we're not. We're all hardwired 322 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 1: to prioritize threats over the warm fuzzy It's kind of 323 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:55,679 Speaker 1: you know, the warm fuzzy stuff's fine, but you're more 324 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: worried about threats. You spot a lion out on the 325 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: sea and gar you're gonna spot a lion rather than 326 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 1: sit there and admire the sunset. You got me on that. 327 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 2: I know. 328 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: Listen, it's right my wheelhouse. I want to think Mike, 329 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 1: who sent me the story, good job by you.

In 415 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 1: Houston because they have nothing to talk about. And imagine 416 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: doing local Houston sports radio. How bad the sports scene 417 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 1: is there? Holy crap, No wonder that this show is 418 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,880 Speaker 1: a better topic than the local Houston sports scene. 419 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 4: But you're lucky you're in broadcasting, Ben, Not everyone gets 420 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,679 Speaker 4: to talk about the whole kitten kaboodle like you do. 421 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 1: Oh you mean national not doing local?

Because the teams 424 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,920 Speaker 1: are bad, it's good. But if they're really really bad, 425 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:57,439 Speaker 1: it's there's a point you cross the rubicon, like the 426 00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 1: local teams are supposed to be good and they're bad, 427 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,919 Speaker 1: but they're not a bad You're okay. If you do 428 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 1: local radio and the teams are non competitive, boring, lacking 429 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 1: star power, lacking any talking points, it's a freaking nightmare. 430 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 1: You're better off just reading random Wikipedia pages. Terry Terry 431 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 1: in England writes, and he says, no, malor, that was 432 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 1: a list, not a big board.

Yeah that 435 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 1: was that was absolutely a big board. He needs to 436 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 1: learn the difference.

I 448 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 2: never saw that happening where they're at now. You know, 449 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 2: the AFC East in the lead and they beat the 450 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 2: I think they beat the Bills what a couple of 451 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:27,879 Speaker 2: weeks ago. And they're going to play Atlanta. Yeah, I 452 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:31,680 Speaker 2: think this weekend. I think they're going to destroy them personally. 453 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:36,639 Speaker 2: But I don't like the Falcons. But anyways, where are you? 454 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,440 Speaker 1: Where are you from?

Thank you for your service. That's 460 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,640 Speaker 1: a great run. And what was your favorite military brace 461 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: that you lived at North Carolina. 462 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 2: I'm a eighty second ear warn Division guys. 463 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:05,399 Speaker 1: So that's so cool. You've seen a few things, I 464 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,160 Speaker 1: bet in your time in the military. 465 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:10,359 Speaker 2: All right, some weird things. But I got a great 466 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,920 Speaker 2: friend who's retired. He lives up in New England. He's 467 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,200 Speaker 2: a big Patriots fan. And yeah, and I'm like, man, 468 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 2: I can't. I did not see the Patriots doing what 469 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 2: they're doing right now. 470 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:22,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but the only thing like this is the 471 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: Patriots look great. Drake May appears to have established himself 472 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 1: the only quality if you want to be a jerk, 473 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 1: and I love being a jerk. I'm a talk show 474 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 1: says you know, John. It would be that they played 475 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: a bunch of cream puffs like the Bills wins legit, 476 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 1: But they have one of the all time worst schedules 477 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 1: in NFL history in terms of the opponent strength of schedule. 478 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: And you know, the Draft every year it's based on 479 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 1: opponent strength of schedule. And if you look at who 480 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: the Patriots have played. They have played the worst of 481 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: the worst. They played New Orleans, Tennessee, Cleveland, that's who 482 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 1: they've beaten the last past three games, played Carolina. The 483 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 1: Dolphins are terrible this year. The strength of schedule for 484 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: the New England Patriots this year, opponent strength of schedule 485 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 1: is by far the worst in the NFL. Three point 486 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: fifty four is the opponents and strength of schedule of 487 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 1: the opponent. So that's the only thing is like, Okay, 488 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 1: they're gonna win a bunch of games. They'll win at 489 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 1: least twelve games, basically because they still play the Jets 490 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: obviously in the division. They play the Jets twice, play 491 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 1: the Dolphins again, they play the Bengals, as you mentioned, 492 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 1: the Falcons this weekend. So they've already got six wins. 493 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: They're gonna get minimum eleven wins if they just beat 494 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: the teams they're supposed to be. They get to eleven wins, 495 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: there'll be another upset somewhere in there. So yeah, but 496 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 1: you still won't know by the time we get to 497 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 1: the playoffs. You're not gonna know whether they're good or not. 498 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, John, Like they've been teams. 499 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 2: And that's what I told my buddy. I was like, dude, 500 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:49,239 Speaker 2: you're delusional. They're gonna frigging fold. They're not gonna make it. 501 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 2: They're just not gonna go. 502 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 1: Well, they're gonna make it. Oh, they'll make it. They're 503 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 1: gonna win enough to get to the playoffs. They will 504 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 1: be a playoff team. But whether or not they're a 505 00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: legitimate good team, that's that's up for the eight. 506 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, and the Colts, I guess in the 507 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 2: AFCI are looking a little bit better. Anyways. Man, I'm 508 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 2: not a real first down the NFL, but I just 509 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 2: tried to him. I say, hey, man, you're delusional if 510 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 2: you think these guys are gonna go. 511 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 1: To man, that's right. Yeah, what are we doing? All right? 512 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: Thank you, I gotta go. That's great, John, look at 513 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 1: that unbelievable new call. Great new calling, great new caller. 514 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: So I only had to dump you once, Yeah, not 515 00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 1: too bad. Usually usually it's a two dump minimum. Yeah, 516 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 1: that's only with Lucky Tony. The too dump minimum is 517 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 1: with Lucky Tony. So I've got a number of people 518 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: have been sending me this story. They want me to 519 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 1: give a hot take on it, So I guess I'll 520 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 1: give a hot take on It's called the traveling Man. 521 00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 1: Yannis dent to Cumbo. Jannis dent to Coombo. That is, 522 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 1: I'm told, a basketball player, and a very good basketball player. 523 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 1: So the Milwaukee Bucks were playing the team called the 524 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: New York Knickerbockers. It's a basketball team from York. 525 00:30:58,040 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 2: Uh. 526 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 1: They don't win, they haven't won in like fifty something 527 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 1: years or whatever. But you know, they have a lot 528 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: of fans in the little Wall Street guys go and 529 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 1: watch them play and all that. So anyway, the Bucks 530 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: and the Knicks got together a one thirty one, one 531 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 1: twenty two Bucks win. Giannis ad dent to Coombo, though, 532 00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: was a trending topic. As he took let's see here 533 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 1: he was, he was not called for traveling even though 534 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 1: he took one, two, three, four, five six steps six 535 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 1: steps slacked. He gathered the ball on a drive, he 536 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 1: didn't dribble, and the referee stood there gobsmacked, and they 537 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 1: didn't call traveling. And that moment, it was in the 538 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 1: first quarter. It went viral on social media and they 539 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,959 Speaker 1: showed the slow motion clip. Even our blind listeners like Incoterra, 540 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: Cancy and Emmett the blind Seahawk fan can see that 541 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 1: in the slow down. It was egregious, it was blatant, 542 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 1: it was all of that. Even the announcers on in 543 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 1: See I think it was on NBC, Reggie Miller and 544 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 1: Jamal Crawford, they were laughing, this is like the most 545 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:10,640 Speaker 1: ridiculous thing. Mike Tarrico on NBC was great. He brought 546 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 1: up the gather step rule. And this is where worlds 547 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 1: collide and people say, well, wait a minute, what is that. 548 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,479 Speaker 1: So the gather step rule, now, technically there was no 549 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 1: change to the traveling rule. It's the same rule. The rule. 550 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:33,239 Speaker 1: Though here's the issue. It's been subjective for years, and 551 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 1: they threw in this vague gather step concept. It was 552 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 1: formalized way back in twenty nineteen. So they say, at 553 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 1: the time, I remember they made a big deal about 554 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:44,959 Speaker 1: We talked about it on the radio show. They said, well, 555 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 1: it's a line with FEBA. We want to be on 556 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 1: the same level as FOEBA. And so it allows a 557 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: first step after the gather to not count towards the 558 00:32:54,920 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 1: two step limit, so essentially giving you three steps. Now, 559 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: this was double that the officials are supposed to use 560 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 1: what's called a two count rhythm judgment. But it's a 561 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 1: judgment call. And are we going to get to the 562 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 1: point where every call must be right and they're gonna 563 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 1: review every traveling call? Are we going to get to 564 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 1: that point? 565 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 3: God? 566 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 1: I hope not. Man, I hope not. Let's go to 567 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 1: Steve in Manhattan. Hello, Steambo in Manhattan? 568 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 2: All right? 569 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 1: Where are you? I don't know.

That's probably 573 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:47,960 Speaker 1: probably the fake call. Hello, Kenny, welcome.
