Now. Normally we don't talk sports. Normally 21 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 1: we don't talk much sports on the weekend Fifth Hour podcast, 22 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 1: but The cool thing about this is that when something 23 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 1: happens that is worthy of our attention, we are able 24 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: to break format and go right into it. And so 25 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 1: this being the Saturday edition, the rare and appropriate, rare 26 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: and appropriate bonus sporty coverage on the Fifth Hour, the 27 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: trade that rocked the NFL. We'll get to that. We 28 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: also have the phrase of the week, and who knows 29 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: what else will pop up here on the Fifth Hour podcast, 30 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: but we'll begin with this an emergency mal monologue, emergency 31 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: malar monologue, and we were not planning on doing this, 32 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 1: but the events changed on Friday, so we had an 33 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: unexpected trade in the NFL. I assume you know by 34 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: now you heard about it, but maybe not. The Raiders 35 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 1: and the Seahawks said, hey, you know what we need 36 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 1: to do. Let's make a deal. And so they made 37 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 1: a deal in Las Vegas acquired quarterback Geno Smith, yes 38 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: that guy, Geno Smith from the Seattle Seahawks, in exchange 39 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:27,639 Speaker 1: for a twenty twenty five third round draft pick. So 40 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: that's it pretty simple. The Raiders get the player, the 41 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 1: Seattle football team gets a lottery ticket, and that is 42 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: the trade. So let us discuss the question for the 43 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: esteem panel which you are a part of. What does 44 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 1: the malor report card read? The malor report card read 45 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: for this particular deal. All right, So we've got cosplay, 46 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 1: waste management and sopranos, and we will combine all of 47 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 1: these things together and we are going to make a 48 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 1: special meal here on a Saturday, the Gabba ghool. We're 49 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: gonna make the Gabba goool, all right, So num Burdwan, 50 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:14,679 Speaker 1: I said, numb burw Yeah, I love the unexpected trade. 51 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 1: Let me start with that. I'll get to the mall 52 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: of report card here in a second. But I love 53 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:22,359 Speaker 1: the unexpected trade that these high fullutint plug me in 54 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 1: NFL insiders information men that are supposed to have all 55 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: the answers, not always. They're caught flat footed here. They 56 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: had no clue they were snapping. Nobody had been whispering 57 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: that Geno Smith would be traded. In fact, the opposite 58 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: was coming out of Seattle. The Dodo Birds were talking 59 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 1: about extending Gino Smith. They had had meetings with Gino 60 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: about an extension. So this came out of left field. 61 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: This came out of thin air, which makes it all 62 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: the more fun to break down here on an emergency 63 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: Malord monologue. So as for the report card, and remember, 64 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: we are impartial, we are fair, and we are balanced. 65 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: We are measured with our commentary. So I want to 66 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: be fair here the Raiders on the Malor report card. 67 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: That could be a shock jock and give some kind 68 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: of ridiculous score. But I'm not gonna do that. I'm 69 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 1: gonna I'm not gonna go fugayzy on you. The Malor 70 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,679 Speaker 1: report card, I jotted down on my note my note 71 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: app here on my phone, which I'm looking at right now. 72 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: I dotted jotted down an F y as in fair, 73 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 1: as in foul, as in all of that. My god, 74 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 1: oh my, oh no, hell, Bill Miller, I mean, come 75 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: on now. So I went F Now, Seattle they're the 76 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 1: team that traded the player. They got a promisory note 77 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 1: in return a third round draft pick. So I gave 78 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: the Seahawks the D. I rotate nuts. They got the 79 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: D and the Raiders got the F. So what in 80 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 1: the world are we doing here? Welcome to bizarre world. 81 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: Remember about a week ago, the Raiders were all hot 82 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 1: and bothered. They thought they had their quarterback, Matthew Stafford. 83 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: They were gonna get Matthew Stafford from the Rams. You 84 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: can ram it all day, you can ram it all night. 85 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: And then Matthew Stafford, after meeting with Tom Brady at 86 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: a clandestine location somewhere in Montana, Stafford said, I'm good, 87 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: I'm going back to the Rams. It is interesting to 88 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: note that after that all went down, a number of 89 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 1: these so called insiders. Oh I knew all along. Oh 90 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 1: he was never going to leave the Rams. Yeah, okay, yeah, sure. 91 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: But the Raiders thought they had a shot at Matthew Stafford. 92 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: They didn't get him. Then there was Aaron Rodgers and 93 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: his name popped up, but instead the Raiders end up 94 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: with Gino Smith, which is hilarious. It is I mean, 95 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: at some point we need to do a wellness check 96 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: on the Raider fan base. Here. It is the mass 97 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: Raid ball relocating to a Vegas theater, is what it is. 98 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: I mean, this is called like it is. Geno Smith, 99 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: for several years now has been doing cosplay. He is 100 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 1: impersonating a QB One. It's like somebody going to comic 101 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: Con dressed up as Spider Man. You're not really Spider Man, 102 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: You're just dressed up as Spider Man. And that's Gino 103 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:24,559 Speaker 1: Smith now if you want to tell me that Gino 104 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 1: Smith is a high end backup that you can play 105 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 1: for a couple of games and maybe you'll be fine. Okay, 106 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: I can even agree with you on that. But if 107 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 1: he's your starting quarterback, you're porked. And if you're trading 108 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: for Gino Smith, if this is your move here, that 109 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: you're going out and you're trading assets to get him, 110 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 1: what does that say about you? Holy Canoley, I mean, 111 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: let's call a spade a spade here. Wow. All right, 112 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 1: So that's where we are. Now, how should Raider fans feel? 113 00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: Should they feel encouraged or discouraged by this trade for Genosmith? 114 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: So I think I've laid it all out for you, 115 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: but just to pile on it's a dog pile. I 116 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: would say that the Raider fan should not feel encouraged 117 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: or discouraged. The emotion would be emasculation because this is 118 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: an emasculating, demoralizing, and humiliating moment. You're like, well, Tom 119 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: Brady's the guy. Now he's running the show, and you 120 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: get an f report card on the malor report card 121 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: making this trade. Tom Brady's got a piece of the pile. 122 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: We keep hearing how he's he's in. You know, he 123 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: owns a little bit of the Raiders ten percent. Mark 124 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: Davis the owner who won the genetic lottery to get 125 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: controlled of the Raiders. So Mark Davis is the controlling 126 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: owner and Tom Brady owns a little bit of it, 127 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: but he's making football decisions. And Mark Davis could have 128 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: simply hired some twelfth man fanboy in the Pacific Northwest 129 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: and said, all right, I want you to run the team. 130 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: You're a Seahawks fan, but I want you to run 131 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: the Raiders. And that's what they've done. The Raiders have 132 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 1: now recreated the twenty twenty two and twenty twenty three 133 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks. Let me repeat that for those of you 134 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: in the back of the room that aren't paying attention. 135 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 1: It's early here on a Saturday, as we're doing this 136 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: in real time, the Tom Brady front office has recreated 137 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty two and twenty twenty three Seattle Seahawks. 138 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 1: That is a bold strategy, Cotton. The Raiders have one 139 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,680 Speaker 1: weapon on offense at this point. Brock byers now keeping 140 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: my Gino Smith playing in Seattle, a winning culture, good 141 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: defensive players, a coaching staff, I know, Pete Carroll's there, 142 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:50,839 Speaker 1: but he hasn't established himself with the Raiders. But he 143 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 1: had built something up in Seattle. They had a winning culture, 144 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,239 Speaker 1: and they had DK Metcalf and a bunch of other playmakers, 145 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 1: and Gino Smith was nothing more than blah. So now 146 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 1: he's going to a team that doesn't have all of 147 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: those things, has one player in Brock Bowers. And here 148 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: we are, Oh my god, what are you doing? Like seriously? 149 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: All right now, page two as we flip the page 150 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,679 Speaker 1: here on this edition of the Fifth Hour with me 151 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: Ben malor Danny G'll rejoin us tomorrow, yes, sir, and 152 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: I'll share with you the real reason Ben hates Gino 153 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 1: so much on Sunday's podcast. So we turned to page 154 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 1: two and the question on page two, is there anything 155 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: that we can take away from the timing of the 156 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:46,079 Speaker 1: Geno Smith trade between the Raiders and the Seattle Seahawks. 157 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 1: And my answer, I'm nodding my head. Yes, you can't 158 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,959 Speaker 1: see me, but I'm nodding my head. Yes, thousand percent. Right. 159 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: This is a PGA tour event, is what it is. 160 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 1: It's a PGA Tour event. It is the Waste Management 161 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: Open or go as we like to say, even in 162 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: the plugged in world of social media and the interweb 163 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: and all that this is a takeout the trash Day 164 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: Blue Ribbon special. Right, you release bad news on a 165 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: Friday afternoon, Friday evening in an attempt to soften the 166 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 1: scrutiny and people. It is proven on the weekends, you 167 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: don't pay as much attention. You've got plans on Friday 168 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 1: and Saturday, and Sunday's a wind down day to wind 169 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 1: back up for the week. And so if you do 170 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 1: something that isn't very popular, if you make a move 171 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: like this and it cuts both ways, it's not just 172 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: one side, it cuts both ways. So if you make 173 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:50,079 Speaker 1: a move like this and you're trying to avoid as 174 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: much negativity as you can, you announce it on a Friday. 175 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:57,959 Speaker 1: You don't announce it on a Monday or Tuesday or Wednesday. 176 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,839 Speaker 1: You do it on Friday, and you do it, as 177 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: we've laid out, for obvious reasons. Now the reason it's 178 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 1: bad for both sides. For the Seahawks, they are confirming 179 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 1: what we all knew that Geno Smith was a bust, 180 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 1: that this guy was a failure. It didn't work out 181 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: in Seattle. They have essentially wasted several seasons of your 182 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 1: fandom if you're in the game there, if you're a 183 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 1: Seahawks fan, and they have been in a holding pattern, 184 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 1: They've been treading water there in Seattle for the last 185 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 1: three years. And it validates my long standing take. I 186 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 1: know Nosterdinas doesn't like this. I think JJ in Renton, 187 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: he's on my team crying. Craig also seems to be okay. 188 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 1: But that Noster Denis, he was so far up Gino 189 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 1: Smith took us. He could not see the sun. I mean, 190 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 1: he's right up there. But validates my long standing criticism 191 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: that Gino Smith has full Jabbroni status as the quarterback 192 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,599 Speaker 1: in Seattle, and he is not only a quarterback, he 193 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 1: is a Schmendrick. And for the Raiders, as we have 194 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,319 Speaker 1: also spelled out for you, but we'll spell it out again, 195 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 1: you downplay this trade for obvious reasons. You have just 196 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: acquired a thirty four year old quarterback who is a jag, 197 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: not a Jacksonville Jag. He's just a guy, and you're 198 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: going to then apparently pay him if when I'm hearing 199 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 1: his accurate, the Raiders are going to give Geno Smith 200 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,199 Speaker 1: a new contract. So you traded a third round pick. 201 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: Who cares about that? But you got a guy who's 202 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: thirty four, so he's passed his athletic prime, not that 203 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: he was ever good, and you're going to pay him 204 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: more money. And so again Tom Brady has recreated the 205 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two to twenty twenty three Seahawks of Pete 206 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: Carroll and Gino Smith. They were together two years in Seattle. 207 00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: Those cats combined had an eighteen and sixteen regular season 208 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:06,439 Speaker 1: and somewhere Al Davis is spinning around in a graveyard 209 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: near you. Eighteen and sixteen, the record a five to 210 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 1: twenty nine winning percentage together, and again that was with 211 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:18,839 Speaker 1: the Seahawks that had playmakers around. Gino Smith, had some 212 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,200 Speaker 1: names on defense, and there was a winning environment. None 213 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,839 Speaker 1: of those things exist in Las Vegas. And now they 214 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: compete in an AFC Division AMC West that has the 215 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 1: Mahomes Reid dynasty in Cana City, the Jim Harbaugh Chargers, 216 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 1: and the Sean Payton Broncos. And so you're you're in 217 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 1: that mix, which is good afternoon, good evening, and good night, 218 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: if you know what I'm saying. Now, final thought from 219 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 1: the Seattle side of things I mentioned on the Mallor 220 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: report card. The Seahawks got a C on the Mallor 221 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,199 Speaker 1: report card because they have a The word I will 222 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: use is flim plan at best. That's being kind. They 223 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:09,680 Speaker 1: have a flimsy plan in Seattle. You're trading away Geno Smith, 224 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,560 Speaker 1: which again I think that's a positive. You're finally admitting 225 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: that we've got a problem here, and that's the first step, 226 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: but doesn't mean you're on your way to fix anything. 227 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: But you're getting rid of Geno Smith, so you're at 228 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 1: least gonna have somebody new at the quarterback position, some 229 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 1: younger blood. Okay, so Geno Smith goes for the ninety 230 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 1: second pick. That's what we're hearing here, the ninety second 231 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 1: pick of the draft, which is nothing that gets you 232 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 1: all turned on. You know, you don't feel a little tingled. 233 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 1: You get the ninety second pick in the draft. Who 234 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: knows what that will be? Likely nothing, But then you 235 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: find out the whispers on who Seattle's going after. Now, 236 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: when I first saw this trade pop up on my phone, 237 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 1: I said, okay, well maybe that's where Aaron Rodgers will 238 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: end up. He'll go to the Pacific Northwest. They don't 239 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 1: have anybody else there, so he'll go, hey, hang out 240 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: and we'll see how that goes. And that'll be good 241 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 1: for talk radio. It'll be fun to have Aaron Rodgers 242 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: in Seattle. Well not so fast. So then the name 243 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: that keeps popping up is a guy named Sam. Not 244 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 1: Iowa Sam, That would be Sam Donald. The plot thickens. Yeah, yeah, yes, 245 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 1: that's the same Sam Donald. I know, I understand your reaction. 246 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: I had the same reaction. I I know it's rather shocking. 247 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 1: It's rather shocking. All right, So how how do you 248 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: process the Seahawks going after Sam Donald? So as they 249 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 1: they said on the iconic show The Sopranos back in 250 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 1: the day, marown Like if I was a pirate, I 251 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 1: would say, shiver me timbers, is what I would say. 252 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 1: This is like trading in a bag of manure. You're like, 253 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 1: I've had the manure for while, I don't need them 254 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 1: newer anymore. I'm gonna go down. I'm gonna trade in 255 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 1: the bag of manure and I'm gonna go buy a 256 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: bag of fertilizer. I think the fertilizer will do better 257 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 1: than the manure. I don't need the manure anymore. I'm 258 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 1: gonna get rid of the manure. I'm gonna say, buy 259 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: the manure, and then I'm gonna bring in a bag 260 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 1: of fertilizer, and that is going to change my life 261 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 1: in amazing ways. Sam Donald is a younger version of Suck. 262 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 1: He's I believe, twenty seven. But that doesn't matter. It 263 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: is the fact that he has an underlying pre existing 264 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: condition here. And you know what that condition is. Are 265 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 1: you aware of the condition that Sam Donald has. My 266 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 1: right hand was getting a workout that is correct. Yes, 267 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 1: he has a glitch. I don't even know if that's 268 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: strong enough. It was a cataclysmic debacle. At the end 269 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 1: of his run in Minnesota, he was fine, he was fine, 270 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: he was fine, and then it was not a telethon, 271 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: It was a gagathon. He suffered from a panic attack 272 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 1: as he gagged at the end, death by asphyxiation. There 273 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: for a one Sam Donald, who did all of the 274 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:21,879 Speaker 1: things you can't do. It was an unmitigated disaster for 275 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: the Vikings, who got down to the very last game 276 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: of the year against the Lions in the regular season 277 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:31,400 Speaker 1: and then football Armageddon. It wasn't just a snaff woo. 278 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: It was uncomfortable. It was awkward. It was purgatory. The 279 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 1: Boogeyman was knocking on the door. It was one of 280 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 1: those things that go bump it he bumpity bump in 281 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 1: the night. Sam Donald was not just a sloppy Joe. 282 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 1: He was stuck in a maze, could not get himself out. 283 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:02,919 Speaker 1: He had anxiety, and that was what we expected. We 284 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 1: expected that to happen, and it happened even worse than 285 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 1: we thought it was going to happen. The wobbling, the 286 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:17,479 Speaker 1: gyrations of grimacing from agony and all that. You have 287 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: to wonder what kind of LSD they're enjoying in the 288 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:25,639 Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks' front office there, if this is really the move. No, 289 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 1: I don't want to kill them too much because they 290 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 1: haven't added Sam Darnald. But if you look at the 291 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:34,639 Speaker 1: map from thirty thousand feet in the sky, the jigsaw 292 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: puzzle is starting to fill out. Stafford stays with the Rams, 293 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:43,160 Speaker 1: the Raiders trade for a Hindenburg like quarterback and Geno 294 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: Smith thinking somehow they're going to be able to not 295 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: get manhandled, and by the rest of the division. Seattle 296 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 1: now is on a rampage to get Sam Darneld, which 297 00:18:56,280 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: would mean Aaron Rodgers ends up going to the team 298 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,120 Speaker 1: that plays with the Giants at this point, and then 299 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 1: you've got who's next the next wave of quarterbacks as 300 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 1: Arizona finds somebody that is dumb enough to take alligator 301 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:14,439 Speaker 1: arms Murray who is easy to disarm because he's got 302 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 1: alligator arms, and eventually as the season goes on, he 303 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:22,160 Speaker 1: falls apart in the second half. That happens pretty much 304 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: all the time. And then you've got the Kirk Cousins thing. 305 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 1: Does he end up in Cleveland? So things are starting 306 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 1: to settle into place as we see teams. If you're 307 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 1: unprepared here, you're screwed. You're screwed if you're unprepared. But 308 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,640 Speaker 1: there's a lot of moving around going on as the 309 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 1: new league gear in the NFL going to begin soon enough. 310 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 1: But that that was quite the day, Quite the day. 311 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:53,159 Speaker 1: Back on Friday, as the Raiders Tom Brady be careful 312 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,880 Speaker 1: what you wish for? They go out. Is he gonna 313 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 1: blame Brady? Does he get criticism because this seems like 314 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,719 Speaker 1: he's not doing a good job, being unfair to Tom Brady. 315 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: That hiring Tom Brady to bring in the Seattle Seahawks 316 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,159 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty two and twenty twenty three is not 317 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 1: what you were expecting that that should be for voting, 318 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 1: But it's not vermoting. It went on, he did it, 319 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 1: and because he's Tom Brady, it's like authorized and it's 320 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,160 Speaker 1: permissible to do that. And you're like, well, I don't 321 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 1: think it should be. I mean, like come on, yeah, 322 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,679 Speaker 1: just again, I can't stress it up. Gino Smith was 323 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 1: not very good when he had two or three really 324 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: good playmakers. He now goes to a Raiders team, barring 325 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 1: some kind of dramatic offseason improvement, a Raiders team that 326 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 1: has less than Seattle. They have less to work with 327 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: than the team he was at. Now. The other factor here, 328 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 1: if Seattle is able to get the right quarterback, which 329 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 1: would not be Sam Donald, would not be Sam Donald, 330 00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 1: is there a path to keep Dk Metcalf. Now, my argument, 331 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 1: I did a monologue about this during the week on 332 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: the Overnight Show, is that the reason Dk Metcalf want 333 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 1: it out, we want money is always at the top. 334 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,360 Speaker 1: But then behind money, he realized that he was not 335 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 1: getting the ball enough in Seattle. He didn't like the environment, 336 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:18,879 Speaker 1: didn't think they were gonna be able to win in Seattle. Well, 337 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 1: now that DK Metcalf doesn't have to play with Gino 338 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:26,639 Speaker 1: Smith anymore, who he must think is absolutely horrible, and 339 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,360 Speaker 1: they get somebody else in there, does that change things 340 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 1: for DK Metcalf? Does he now say, all right, well, 341 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:36,160 Speaker 1: maybe I'll stay in Seattle. They're gonna pay me. Old 342 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:38,479 Speaker 1: John McKay quote. When you talk about what's going on 343 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: with the Raiders and the Seahawks, you do a lot 344 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,400 Speaker 1: of praying, but most of the time the answers no right. 345 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 1: And the Seahawks, it's the term that has been used 346 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,439 Speaker 1: a lot well is rebuild, But that's really just code. 347 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:55,400 Speaker 1: That's lip service for we're gonna suck, right, and we're 348 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: not in it to win it and all that. And 349 00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: football is one of those sports. I know, no Stredina 350 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: doesn't understand this and some of the other dopes, but 351 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 1: football is one of those sports where even if you 352 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: have a remote possibility, you go for it. You go 353 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,919 Speaker 1: for it, and you never want to be that team 354 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:16,880 Speaker 1: that just settles in to the little village called Suckville. 355 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,880 Speaker 1: You just don't want to embrace the suck. You can't 356 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 1: do it, and it's a shame. You got to have 357 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 1: that perseverance to go out there and compete, and even 358 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: when things aren't looking great, luck be a lady here. 359 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 1: Maybe you'll run into some kind of fluky thing and 360 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: some good stuff will happen to you, even though you 361 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 1: don't have a great quarterback or this, that or the 362 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: other thing. But I'm sure we'll have plenty of time 363 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 1: to talk about that more as the off season rolls on. 364 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: But I wanted to make sure to do that. And 365 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 1: it's one of the great things that we have here 366 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:54,479 Speaker 1: on the Fifth Hour a pod is that we are 367 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,439 Speaker 1: able to when we feel like it, we can just 368 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:01,919 Speaker 1: do sporting. We can be a sporty pod. And I 369 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: didn't do another rant was some of years a I 370 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 1: got from Cleveland, Well, you're gonna do a rant this 371 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 1: weekend on the podcast. But that story with Miles Garrett 372 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 1: was like, no, probably not. I mean I saw it. 373 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: I can only do one Mallard monologue per Fifth Hour. 374 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 1: We've already met our quota on this edition. But I 375 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: am aware that the Browns owner Jimmy Haslam declined the 376 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,439 Speaker 1: request to meet with Miles Garrett as he asked for 377 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: a trade. And again, I'm not doing a full monologue. 378 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 1: I'm just a couple of thoughts on that. For Steve 379 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: who's in Ohio and Steve O in Ohio. All I 380 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: would say is there's there's one of two scenarios in 381 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 1: play with Jimmy Haslam and his decision to not meet 382 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,639 Speaker 1: with Miles Garrett. It is either a Haslam is a 383 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:52,880 Speaker 1: softy and he knows that if they have a face 384 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 1: to face meeting, Miles Garrett can sweet talk him, use 385 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 1: that Svengali effect, and then all of a sudden, Jimmy 386 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 1: as them will pay him more money and they'll patch 387 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 1: things up. It's either that Haslam's a softy, or Haslam 388 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:14,159 Speaker 1: it's the other extreme that he wants. He wants Garrett gone. 389 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 1: He don't want to pay him, and he doesn't want 390 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:18,680 Speaker 1: to meet with him, doesn't want to do it. Wants 391 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,160 Speaker 1: other people and a lot of rich guys are cowards 392 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 1: who wants somebody else to be the go beatryt between 393 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,879 Speaker 1: the intermediary and set all that up and not. He 394 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,360 Speaker 1: doesn't want to have to be the one that's the 395 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 1: bad guy. Doesn't want to be the bad guy in 396 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 1: all that all right, time now, time now, in the 397 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 1: fifth hour, that's enough of that sporty stuff. Way too 398 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 1: much of that. Let's get to the phrase of the week. 399 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: That's right, the phrase of the week. I've always appropriate 400 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: this week in honor of the trade of Geno Smith, 401 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,360 Speaker 1: which was just for a third round pick, a three 402 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:59,400 Speaker 1: year starting quarterback only worth a third round pick, as 403 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,159 Speaker 1: the Raiders traded a third round pick to Seattle for 404 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 1: Gino Smith. So let's go back in the hot top 405 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 1: time machine. You probably don't remember this. It goes back 406 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 1: man almost forty years. One of the great quotes in 407 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: NFL history about a trade, about a trade, and it 408 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 1: was from a head coach in the NFL who said, 409 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 1: trade him for a six pack. It doesn't even have 410 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 1: to be cold. Close phrase, that is the phrase of 411 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 1: the week. That's right, trade him for a six pack. 412 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,119 Speaker 1: It doesn't even have to be cold. Now, that phrase 413 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: originated with one of the great characters in the NFL 414 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,199 Speaker 1: many many generations ago, but a guy named Buddy Ryan. 415 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 1: Buddy Ryan was the defensive guru of the Chicago Bears 416 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: the last time they won the Super Bowl in the 417 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty five season or Championship after the eighty four season, 418 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: and Buddy Ryan would go on become a head football 419 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 1: coach in Philadelphia, and he did not like to bite 420 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 1: his tongue. He liked to let it rip. And so 421 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: Buddy Ryan in nineteen eighty six. So we're going back 422 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,400 Speaker 1: a minute, but Buddy Ryan is in training camp. He's 423 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 1: the head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, and he did 424 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 1: not seem to light one of his running backs very much. 425 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: They had a running back named Ernest Jackson on the 426 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty six Philadelphia Eagles, and he was not a 427 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,919 Speaker 1: coach's favorite. Buddy didn't something about him. I don't know 428 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:31,639 Speaker 1: what it was. I even go back and look at 429 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:35,160 Speaker 1: the archives. But Buddy was not a fan of Ernest Jackson, 430 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: and so he said, hey, trade him for a six pack. 431 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 1: It doesn't even have to be cool. Now. Jackson played 432 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: the season with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He went to the 433 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,199 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl. That was back when the Pro Bowl meant something, 434 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 1: not now where the Pro Bowl is water balloon toss 435 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:54,479 Speaker 1: and tic tac toe and pinned the tail on the donk. 436 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,919 Speaker 1: Back then, it actually was an all star game, the 437 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl, and was an honor to be there. Even 438 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:02,679 Speaker 1: to this day though it's all pro status is what 439 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:05,920 Speaker 1: matters more. But anyway, so Ernest Jackson played one more 440 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:10,439 Speaker 1: season with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Buddy Ryan quote, trade 441 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: him for a six pack, it doesn't even have to 442 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 1: be cold, is one of his most memorable phrases. I 443 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 1: would argue that Buddy Ryan had more memorable phrases as 444 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 1: head coach than he did actual success on the field. 445 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 1: Some of the other classics from from Buddy Ryan. Remember 446 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:40,639 Speaker 1: he had said quarterbacks are overpaid, overrated, pompous bastards and 447 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: must be punished. That was a Buddy Ryan quote. He 448 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,400 Speaker 1: was the defensive guru, of course for the Bears and whatnot, 449 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:52,400 Speaker 1: and he hated quarterbacks. Couldn't stand him, could not stand him. 450 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 1: He's also been credited I'm not sure if he's the 451 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: first one to say this about he said one of 452 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:03,920 Speaker 1: the the players on the on the Eagles would be 453 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:09,160 Speaker 1: selling insurance in two years. That's what he say said, 454 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 1: Which is you say that now? Oh my god, I 455 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,639 Speaker 1: can't believe he said that. Oh my god, you can't 456 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 1: say that. You are such a mean person. What is 457 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 1: wrong with you? And that whole deal. Some of the 458 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 1: old school coaches, Yeah, it's it's wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. Maybe 459 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 1: once in a while, we get a great, great SoundBite 460 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 1: like Mike Gundy at Oklahoma State few years back when 461 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 1: he he said, I'm a man, I'm forty right, you know, 462 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 1: you go after me and all that stuff. That was 463 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 1: a funny one. It's sporadic, but the old school guys tremendous, 464 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 1: absolutely tremendous. All Right, we'll get out on that, have 465 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 1: a wonderful rest of your Saturday. We'll have the mail bag. 466 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: Hopefully Danny g will join us on the Sunday mail Bag, 467 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 1: and I get his thoughts too, because he's mister Raider. 468 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: We'll get his thoughts on the big trade tomorrow. But 469 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:05,719 Speaker 1: until then, we'll chat with you down the line and 470 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: have a wonderful rest of your Saturday. Later, Skater, he's 471 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: a winner. Bo Folation
