He's a little mascot, he 19 00:01:27,326 --> 00:01:28,166 Speaker 2: is a little mass. 20 00:01:28,526 --> 00:01:30,766 Speaker 1: He watched all the games with me yesterday. 21 00:01:30,766 --> 00:01:31,246 Speaker 2: I love it. 22 00:01:31,566 --> 00:01:33,966 Speaker 1: He was in it very much. He had no choice 23 00:01:34,006 --> 00:01:35,606 Speaker 1: because it was seven hours of red zone and then 24 00:01:35,886 --> 00:01:38,246 Speaker 1: you know the big Sunday night game with the fence. 25 00:01:38,686 --> 00:01:42,526 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he did girl all the while. I hope 26 00:01:42,566 --> 00:01:45,006 Speaker 2: that he was watching the forty nine Ers Rams game 27 00:01:45,086 --> 00:01:47,006 Speaker 2: because I had a chance to actually go by and 28 00:01:47,046 --> 00:01:48,366 Speaker 2: watch it in person. 29 00:01:48,886 --> 00:01:51,606 Speaker 1: I love that we tuned in for I'll switch back 30 00:01:51,646 --> 00:01:53,006 Speaker 1: and forth. I have a couple of screens going. You 31 00:01:53,006 --> 00:01:55,726 Speaker 1: know how this goes for us well on Sundays, So 32 00:01:55,766 --> 00:01:58,086 Speaker 1: I switched my smaller screen to red zone and then 33 00:01:58,166 --> 00:02:00,886 Speaker 1: just had the Niners Rams game on for a good 34 00:02:00,886 --> 00:02:04,126 Speaker 1: while until it was very clear. Yeah, it's very clear 35 00:02:04,166 --> 00:02:05,486 Speaker 1: that the Niners were going to take away with it. 36 00:02:05,526 --> 00:02:07,246 Speaker 1: But I'm so happy you went. Did you take your son? 37 00:02:07,926 --> 00:02:11,606 Speaker 2: I did, Yes, I had a blast. It was our 38 00:02:12,486 --> 00:02:16,046 Speaker 2: first time together there watching a football game at Sofi Stadium, 39 00:02:16,126 --> 00:02:20,726 Speaker 2: and I have to say, really loud, great atmosphere. Obviously 40 00:02:20,766 --> 00:02:23,046 Speaker 2: a lot of red there, which I'm sure Rams fans 41 00:02:23,046 --> 00:02:25,406 Speaker 2: don't want to hear, but that indeed was the case. 42 00:02:26,086 --> 00:02:29,766 Speaker 2: I love what the Rams do there to get the 43 00:02:29,846 --> 00:02:36,006 Speaker 2: crowd hyped up, and they have Los Mariachi's there. Yeah yeah, 44 00:02:36,046 --> 00:02:39,526 Speaker 2: you know, and yeah, and I love that they really 45 00:02:40,766 --> 00:02:44,726 Speaker 2: lean into that and it just made for a really 46 00:02:44,806 --> 00:02:49,806 Speaker 2: fun game day atmosphere and in terms of the actual game, 47 00:02:50,206 --> 00:02:54,926 Speaker 2: I mean, tied at seventeen at halftime, and the Rams 48 00:02:55,606 --> 00:02:58,886 Speaker 2: clearly are a lot better than we all thought they'd hunt. 49 00:02:59,806 --> 00:03:01,166 Speaker 1: I think people thought this was going to be a 50 00:03:01,246 --> 00:03:03,646 Speaker 1: runaway game for the forty nine ers and the Rams were, 51 00:03:04,126 --> 00:03:07,486 Speaker 1: but that's what you especially from a divisional rivalry game. 52 00:03:07,926 --> 00:03:10,206 Speaker 1: It was great. It was I mean not great for 53 00:03:10,286 --> 00:03:13,966 Speaker 1: the Rams and their output on their end result, but 54 00:03:14,446 --> 00:03:16,446 Speaker 1: great for US fans and just watching them go out 55 00:03:16,446 --> 00:03:17,286 Speaker 1: it back and forth for. 56 00:03:17,206 --> 00:03:22,006 Speaker 2: Sure, absolutely, and you see Puka Nakua to to at 57 00:03:22,046 --> 00:03:26,646 Speaker 2: well all out. They really had themselves a day and 58 00:03:27,246 --> 00:03:30,366 Speaker 2: if and when Cooper Cup comes back and he's healthy, 59 00:03:30,886 --> 00:03:33,606 Speaker 2: that's a pretty nice trio of wide receivers that they 60 00:03:33,686 --> 00:03:36,886 Speaker 2: have there. And the way that they were running that offense, 61 00:03:37,006 --> 00:03:39,486 Speaker 2: especially in the first half against the forty nine ers 62 00:03:40,006 --> 00:03:45,166 Speaker 2: and Matthew Stafford making some no look crossbody passes, they 63 00:03:45,166 --> 00:03:48,206 Speaker 2: were impressive. They're not a fluke team at this point. 64 00:03:48,526 --> 00:03:52,046 Speaker 2: He went up to Seattle, they beat the Seahawks, and 65 00:03:52,126 --> 00:03:54,766 Speaker 2: they gave the forty nine ers everything. 66 00:03:54,406 --> 00:03:58,646 Speaker 1: That they had, no question, and Stafford, to his credit, 67 00:03:58,886 --> 00:04:01,486 Speaker 1: slinging it out there, not perfectly every time, but like 68 00:04:01,566 --> 00:04:04,246 Speaker 1: the key, I think just the velocity with which the 69 00:04:04,246 --> 00:04:07,246 Speaker 1: ball comes out of his hand is something that we 70 00:04:07,286 --> 00:04:10,166 Speaker 1: don't talk about enough or don't give him enough credit for. 71 00:04:10,926 --> 00:04:14,326 Speaker 1: This is a Super Bowl winning quarterback, right. I don't 72 00:04:14,406 --> 00:04:17,926 Speaker 1: think you can discount this team. Shanahan for sure, never 73 00:04:18,606 --> 00:04:23,686 Speaker 1: discounts Sean McVay no and his schematics. You can't write, 74 00:04:23,726 --> 00:04:26,246 Speaker 1: it's impossible. But I'm so glad that you guys. Okay, 75 00:04:26,286 --> 00:04:29,446 Speaker 1: So what was your son's favorite part? 76 00:04:28,766 --> 00:04:33,246 Speaker 2: His favorite part was being on the jumbo tron in 77 00:04:33,286 --> 00:04:39,566 Speaker 2: the background of an interview. Yeah. So he's wearing his 78 00:04:40,486 --> 00:04:45,126 Speaker 2: number eighty jersey and he is totally like mugging towards 79 00:04:45,166 --> 00:04:47,606 Speaker 2: the camera and dancing in the background, and you see 80 00:04:47,646 --> 00:04:51,606 Speaker 2: him in the far left hand corner him doing his thing, 81 00:04:51,686 --> 00:04:53,726 Speaker 2: and it's so funny. He's like, Dad, look, look, look, 82 00:04:53,766 --> 00:04:56,366 Speaker 2: I'm on the jumbo tron. It just was so funny 83 00:04:56,446 --> 00:04:58,486 Speaker 2: to see it. It's like he's now been on the 84 00:04:58,566 --> 00:05:02,846 Speaker 2: JumboTron to two sporting events. The first time he was 85 00:05:03,566 --> 00:05:06,726 Speaker 2: on the jumbo tron was at the Chase Center in 86 00:05:06,766 --> 00:05:09,886 Speaker 2: San Francisco when the Warriors were playing and his first 87 00:05:09,926 --> 00:05:13,206 Speaker 2: time going to that game. So here he is now twice. 88 00:05:13,566 --> 00:05:15,966 Speaker 2: So he Uh, he had a lot of fun and 89 00:05:16,166 --> 00:05:18,966 Speaker 2: just the seats that we had in the vantage point 90 00:05:19,086 --> 00:05:22,286 Speaker 2: that we were able to see the action was was fantastic. 91 00:05:22,326 --> 00:05:25,726 Speaker 2: And I think he just loved the whole atmosphere in general. 92 00:05:26,006 --> 00:05:30,406 Speaker 2: And you see those stars balling out, guys like Debo, 93 00:05:31,006 --> 00:05:37,406 Speaker 2: you know, and and Kittle kind of thanks him and yeah, okay, yeah, 94 00:05:37,446 --> 00:05:41,566 Speaker 2: oh boy, and Christian McCaffrey just so fast as soon 95 00:05:41,606 --> 00:05:44,846 Speaker 2: as he gets the ball takes off, and uh, you 96 00:05:44,886 --> 00:05:48,886 Speaker 2: see why that's just a dangerous team with the offense. 97 00:05:48,846 --> 00:05:51,446 Speaker 1: Which we knew. We knew coming into it that this 98 00:05:52,126 --> 00:05:55,926 Speaker 1: team was stacked. And I continue to praise the development 99 00:05:55,926 --> 00:05:59,206 Speaker 1: of Brandon Ayuk, who your son named his fantasy team 100 00:05:59,246 --> 00:06:06,166 Speaker 1: after it right ball skittles. 101 00:06:06,566 --> 00:06:08,566 Speaker 2: Yeah, he was a little bit buff. You wanted to 102 00:06:08,566 --> 00:06:11,326 Speaker 2: see Ayuk cook Moore, but he was dealing with the 103 00:06:11,366 --> 00:06:13,886 Speaker 2: shoulder injury. And I'm sure if you are a forty 104 00:06:13,926 --> 00:06:16,526 Speaker 2: nine Ers fan and you are listening to our podcast, 105 00:06:16,566 --> 00:06:20,246 Speaker 2: we get it. It's like the Rams lost. The forty 106 00:06:20,326 --> 00:06:22,646 Speaker 2: nine Ers had had a great effort, specially in that 107 00:06:22,726 --> 00:06:25,646 Speaker 2: second half, and they really tightened up on the defensive side, 108 00:06:25,926 --> 00:06:29,086 Speaker 2: really getting to Matthew Stafford when they had to when 109 00:06:29,126 --> 00:06:34,766 Speaker 2: it counted so very disrupting, and even both vowed that 110 00:06:34,966 --> 00:06:37,926 Speaker 2: he is not going to have another sackless game. And 111 00:06:38,086 --> 00:06:42,366 Speaker 2: he was neutralized. So the forty nine ers now have 112 00:06:42,566 --> 00:06:50,966 Speaker 2: to turn around quickly and host the Giants football crazy, yes, 113 00:06:51,046 --> 00:06:54,326 Speaker 2: but before we get to that part of it, you 114 00:06:54,366 --> 00:06:58,046 Speaker 2: know what we need here besides Gunny the mascot, We 115 00:06:58,126 --> 00:07:03,646 Speaker 2: need that special sauce that selfsa that that herve that 116 00:07:03,766 --> 00:07:06,046 Speaker 2: bigger that for that power. 117 00:07:09,126 --> 00:07:11,566 Speaker 1: It should come as no surprise that my platental power 118 00:07:11,646 --> 00:07:15,726 Speaker 1: is coming from the Sunday night game. Dolphins are Patriots. 119 00:07:16,766 --> 00:07:18,766 Speaker 1: They have eachook for a minute there towards the end. 120 00:07:18,766 --> 00:07:21,886 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna light you, but we came through. And 121 00:07:22,046 --> 00:07:27,286 Speaker 1: it is unbelievably evident that Rahim Mostert came out there 122 00:07:27,286 --> 00:07:29,846 Speaker 1: with a couple extra scoops of mangoo that is mashed 123 00:07:30,126 --> 00:07:33,006 Speaker 1: plant aims to keep it very simple, have a little 124 00:07:33,006 --> 00:07:35,046 Speaker 1: extrap in them.

True, Okay, 134 00:08:17,246 --> 00:08:19,046 Speaker 1: he doesn't have his bark, So he just kind of 135 00:08:19,046 --> 00:08:21,326 Speaker 1: like went for a bit and like scampered away like okay, 136 00:08:21,326 --> 00:08:26,166 Speaker 1: crazy lady. But yeah, I mean, unbelievable performance. So glad 137 00:08:26,166 --> 00:08:28,606 Speaker 1: that he also got in on the post game, you know, 138 00:08:28,686 --> 00:08:31,046 Speaker 1: Star of the Game interview with our girl Melissa Stark. 139 00:08:31,846 --> 00:08:35,366 Speaker 1: Him and Tua there. We've been begging us Dolphins fans 140 00:08:35,406 --> 00:08:38,206 Speaker 1: for since last season. Please run the ball, Please run 141 00:08:38,246 --> 00:08:40,846 Speaker 1: the ball, please run the ball more. And we really 142 00:08:40,886 --> 00:08:42,886 Speaker 1: really saw that this game. And I mean the proof 143 00:08:43,006 --> 00:08:45,326 Speaker 1: is in the putting. So very excited for that. Tons 144 00:08:45,326 --> 00:08:47,606 Speaker 1: of platinus for sure. And they go back to Miami's 145 00:08:47,646 --> 00:08:49,406 Speaker 1: looking at platinum wherever they want a little. 146 00:08:50,246 --> 00:08:53,406 Speaker 2: Yeah, and Tua now five and oh against the Patriots 147 00:08:53,646 --> 00:08:56,246 Speaker 2: and let's see it. To a man, being the tour 148 00:08:56,286 --> 00:08:59,646 Speaker 2: man that he is, had said, Hey, it's not me 149 00:08:59,926 --> 00:09:02,726 Speaker 2: five and oh, it's the team that's five and oh 150 00:09:03,006 --> 00:09:07,886 Speaker 2: and listen. He he's out there playing at a high level, 151 00:09:08,166 --> 00:09:11,486 Speaker 2: and we just hate to keep reiterating it because it 152 00:09:11,526 --> 00:09:15,726 Speaker 2: feels almost cliche. If Tua is healthy. If Tua is healthy, 153 00:09:16,046 --> 00:09:19,806 Speaker 2: the man has the skills to be a top line 154 00:09:20,286 --> 00:09:24,646 Speaker 2: quarterback in this league. This offense just is on a 155 00:09:24,686 --> 00:09:29,326 Speaker 2: different level, a different plane when he's under center. And 156 00:09:30,166 --> 00:09:33,686 Speaker 2: even though Tyreek was a lot of the time bottled 157 00:09:33,766 --> 00:09:37,406 Speaker 2: up against that Patriots defense, still he finds a way 158 00:09:37,486 --> 00:09:40,046 Speaker 2: to distribute that ball to different guys and having that 159 00:09:40,126 --> 00:09:43,806 Speaker 2: running game is huge for them, and they're now two 160 00:09:43,846 --> 00:09:44,926 Speaker 2: and zero. 161 00:09:44,606 --> 00:09:49,126 Speaker 1: So I love that you mentioned that, especially the secondary 162 00:09:49,966 --> 00:09:52,326 Speaker 1: just shutting down Tyreek, which is why they have to 163 00:09:52,366 --> 00:09:55,526 Speaker 1: rely on Raheem in the run game. Because I had 164 00:09:55,526 --> 00:09:57,526 Speaker 1: a moment of like, oh wait a minute, I'm rooting 165 00:09:57,526 --> 00:09:59,926 Speaker 1: for the wrong team here because our boy Christian Gonzales 166 00:09:59,926 --> 00:10:03,526 Speaker 1: with an unbelievable interception and you know, he's like basically 167 00:10:03,566 --> 00:10:05,246 Speaker 1: our money. 168 00:10:05,606 --> 00:10:09,806 Speaker 2: Yeah, glad we had his like it's. 169 00:10:09,686 --> 00:10:11,846 Speaker 1: A family affair. We've been rooting for him since he 170 00:10:11,926 --> 00:10:14,926 Speaker 1: came into the draft, so I love to see him shine. 171 00:10:15,606 --> 00:10:17,006 Speaker 1: It kind of sucks that he's got to go up 172 00:10:17,006 --> 00:10:20,766 Speaker 1: against my always always root for you Christian. The fact 173 00:10:20,766 --> 00:10:22,406 Speaker 1: that he came out here week two of the season 174 00:10:22,486 --> 00:10:25,526 Speaker 1: is already showing what he can do. He just put 175 00:10:25,646 --> 00:10:28,526 Speaker 1: the entire league on notice, don't come by me because 176 00:10:28,526 --> 00:10:30,366 Speaker 1: I'm not only am I going to get in the interception, 177 00:10:30,366 --> 00:10:32,486 Speaker 1: I'm going to take away your biggest weapons. So good 178 00:10:32,486 --> 00:10:33,846 Speaker 1: for you, Christian. 179 00:10:33,926 --> 00:10:40,486 Speaker 2: Yeah, Christian. Christian someday might be part of that elite 180 00:10:40,606 --> 00:10:43,446 Speaker 2: special group. You know what that elite special group is, 181 00:10:43,646 --> 00:10:53,566 Speaker 2: MJ I do, but extra emphasis there one day, Christian, 182 00:10:53,646 --> 00:10:57,646 Speaker 2: You're almost there. But for me, I've got I've got 183 00:10:57,646 --> 00:11:01,286 Speaker 2: some candidates here that I think are definitely worthy, and 184 00:11:01,366 --> 00:11:05,286 Speaker 2: one of them is Daniel Jones, quarterback of the New 185 00:11:05,406 --> 00:11:08,966 Speaker 2: York Football Giants. Now the Giants were down. I know, 186 00:11:09,086 --> 00:11:13,686 Speaker 2: wait a second, though, Giants down baint the Assato right 187 00:11:13,766 --> 00:11:17,726 Speaker 2: twenty to nothering at halftime. There was no rhythm there. 188 00:11:18,366 --> 00:11:21,686 Speaker 2: The offensive line wasn't doing him any favors. And then 189 00:11:22,166 --> 00:11:25,806 Speaker 2: second half they made the adjustments. He was running the 190 00:11:25,886 --> 00:11:30,086 Speaker 2: ball and when he has time he can do some damage. 191 00:11:30,286 --> 00:11:32,806 Speaker 2: Do I think that he's now going to be in 192 00:11:32,846 --> 00:11:37,286 Speaker 2: that top tier quarterback? No, absolutely not. But it also 193 00:11:37,526 --> 00:11:41,406 Speaker 2: helped that Saquon Barkley was there to pick up some 194 00:11:41,806 --> 00:11:46,926 Speaker 2: of that slack, and Saquon will keep an eye on 195 00:11:47,006 --> 00:11:50,206 Speaker 2: his ankle injury because it looked bad. You know, we 196 00:11:50,246 --> 00:11:53,206 Speaker 2: don't know how bad it is, but that's certainly an 197 00:11:53,206 --> 00:11:56,926 Speaker 2: injury worth monitoring and will monitor it closely. It's just 198 00:11:57,446 --> 00:12:01,246 Speaker 2: there's something about that offense. When Saquon gets going and 199 00:12:01,366 --> 00:12:04,566 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones is running and he's able to get time, 200 00:12:05,606 --> 00:12:08,326 Speaker 2: they look different than they did in the first half 201 00:12:08,326 --> 00:12:11,686 Speaker 2: of that game and in that Week one loss where 202 00:12:11,726 --> 00:12:14,446 Speaker 2: they got just blown out by the Cowboys. 203 00:12:15,486 --> 00:12:19,206 Speaker 1: What I'm trying to figure out is is this comeback 204 00:12:19,206 --> 00:12:22,526 Speaker 1: performance the exception or the rule for Daniel Jones. 205 00:12:22,646 --> 00:12:25,326 Speaker 2: Great question. I don't know. I don't believe. 206 00:12:25,806 --> 00:12:28,966 Speaker 1: I just don't I want to. As you know, I 207 00:12:29,006 --> 00:12:32,446 Speaker 1: am married to a massive Giants fan who flew out 208 00:12:32,526 --> 00:12:34,806 Speaker 1: to Arizona to watch this game in. 209 00:12:34,926 --> 00:12:35,766 Speaker 2: US that's dedication. 210 00:12:36,366 --> 00:12:39,886 Speaker 1: Yes, So thank you Daniel Jones and the team for 211 00:12:39,926 --> 00:12:42,166 Speaker 1: the win, because it would have been a very long 212 00:12:42,286 --> 00:12:45,046 Speaker 1: long fly back from Phoenix, even though it's hot. But 213 00:12:45,086 --> 00:12:48,286 Speaker 1: you get what I'm saying, well without that dub, so 214 00:12:48,726 --> 00:12:51,286 Speaker 1: credit where credit is due. But man, like, how do 215 00:12:51,326 --> 00:12:54,206 Speaker 1: you explain the other you know, what was it? Six? 216 00:12:54,286 --> 00:12:58,126 Speaker 1: Quarters of football with points. That's unacceptable. 217 00:12:58,406 --> 00:13:00,286 Speaker 2: It is unacceptable. And then they have to go up 218 00:13:00,326 --> 00:13:03,726 Speaker 2: against the juggernaut in the forty nine ers, who who 219 00:13:04,166 --> 00:13:06,406 Speaker 2: as we know, they are going to be coming at you. 220 00:13:06,486 --> 00:13:08,606 Speaker 2: And the other thing that's troubling if you are a 221 00:13:08,686 --> 00:13:15,086 Speaker 2: Giants fan, namely your husband. They have not recorded a 222 00:13:15,166 --> 00:13:20,486 Speaker 2: sack or a takeaway and that's a little concerning as well. 223 00:13:20,726 --> 00:13:24,566 Speaker 2: And maybe it will be in due time. You know, 224 00:13:24,726 --> 00:13:29,326 Speaker 2: really has been non existent. So maybe maybe he breaked 225 00:13:29,366 --> 00:13:32,646 Speaker 2: out in some way Thursday night against the forty nine ers, 226 00:13:32,686 --> 00:13:35,246 Speaker 2: because if you look at the slate of games coming 227 00:13:35,326 --> 00:13:39,086 Speaker 2: up for the Giants, they easily easily could have started. 228 00:13:38,846 --> 00:13:41,806 Speaker 1: Off oh and six should have could have? 229 00:13:42,806 --> 00:13:45,246 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean looking if you look at the snouts. 230 00:13:44,806 --> 00:13:48,006 Speaker 1: Head one on one, but yes, I agree. 231 00:13:47,886 --> 00:13:52,126 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, So so Daniel Jones, he's betro Macho. Number one. 232 00:13:52,566 --> 00:13:54,606 Speaker 2: Number two, because we have a little bit of time, 233 00:13:55,286 --> 00:14:01,326 Speaker 2: is actually Dak Prescott. Okay, and yeah, Dak thirteen straight 234 00:14:01,366 --> 00:14:06,846 Speaker 2: completions to start that game. Again, he looked composed, poised, 235 00:14:07,086 --> 00:14:09,966 Speaker 2: he looked comfortable in that offense. Wasn't asked to do 236 00:14:10,126 --> 00:14:13,646 Speaker 2: too much. And I have to say, so far this 237 00:14:14,526 --> 00:14:18,886 Speaker 2: Mike McCarthy play calling thing that we going in Big 238 00:14:18,966 --> 00:14:22,126 Speaker 2: d It is working so far, so good. They've looked 239 00:14:22,126 --> 00:14:25,806 Speaker 2: so impressive about scoring opponents something like seventy to ten 240 00:14:26,486 --> 00:14:31,406 Speaker 2: and Edjay, consider this, they did it against the Jets defense. 241 00:14:31,566 --> 00:14:35,366 Speaker 2: This Jets defense was nothing to play with, right, right, 242 00:14:36,286 --> 00:14:38,926 Speaker 2: So this is this is why I put Dack there. 243 00:14:39,006 --> 00:14:41,686 Speaker 2: I easily could have put anybody on the defensive side 244 00:14:42,086 --> 00:14:45,126 Speaker 2: for the Cowboys. You know Micah Parsons as well. I mean, 245 00:14:45,206 --> 00:14:47,246 Speaker 2: that guy's just a beast coming off the edge. 246 00:14:47,926 --> 00:14:50,606 Speaker 1: He was thirty one of thirty eight against him. Yeah, 247 00:14:50,886 --> 00:14:53,246 Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty five yards and two times. I 248 00:14:53,286 --> 00:14:55,766 Speaker 1: love it. I love to see it because there's always 249 00:14:55,846 --> 00:14:58,846 Speaker 1: that there's always that question. And this is why I 250 00:14:58,846 --> 00:15:01,406 Speaker 1: got so upset and so frustrated in the league, because 251 00:15:01,566 --> 00:15:06,966 Speaker 1: some quarterbacks who seemingly don't do as much get these contracts, 252 00:15:07,286 --> 00:15:10,406 Speaker 1: and it took Tack so long to get paid, regardless 253 00:15:10,406 --> 00:15:11,846 Speaker 1: of the fact that we know that he has the 254 00:15:11,886 --> 00:15:13,206 Speaker 1: capacity for sure. 255 00:15:13,766 --> 00:15:17,206 Speaker 2: Yeah, and McCarthy being the play caller not Kellen Moore 256 00:15:17,486 --> 00:15:23,006 Speaker 2: clearly is making a difference at least so far. Okay, now, 257 00:15:23,286 --> 00:15:26,166 Speaker 2: my third Erromacho, you. 258 00:15:26,126 --> 00:15:28,406 Speaker 1: Are feeling generous today, I am. 259 00:15:28,606 --> 00:15:32,646 Speaker 2: I am feeling good, prima romana. So my third one. 260 00:15:33,366 --> 00:15:36,326 Speaker 2: And I didn't think about this until just now that 261 00:15:36,486 --> 00:15:39,806 Speaker 2: I'm going all NFC East here, I am going with 262 00:15:40,406 --> 00:15:48,286 Speaker 2: the QB one for your Washington commander. SI. Yes, we 263 00:15:48,366 --> 00:15:51,606 Speaker 2: head coach Ron Rivera on this podcast, if use have 264 00:15:51,646 --> 00:15:56,086 Speaker 2: been his praise on Sam Howell, what he saw in 265 00:15:56,166 --> 00:15:59,726 Speaker 2: him from the very beginning, and obviously there were doubts 266 00:15:59,926 --> 00:16:03,406 Speaker 2: heading into this season what he could do, but he 267 00:16:03,726 --> 00:16:08,006 Speaker 2: was extending plays, he was throwing darts out there, He's 268 00:16:08,046 --> 00:16:12,046 Speaker 2: finding Terry McLaurin, and you could tell, like toward the 269 00:16:12,126 --> 00:16:14,206 Speaker 2: end of the first half things started to change from 270 00:16:14,206 --> 00:16:17,966 Speaker 2: a little bit and this was going to be part 271 00:16:18,006 --> 00:16:20,446 Speaker 2: of the Sam Howe experience. You were gonna have your ups, 272 00:16:20,446 --> 00:16:23,886 Speaker 2: you were gonna have your downs. But he has shown 273 00:16:23,926 --> 00:16:27,366 Speaker 2: that he's got the confidence and the ability to stand 274 00:16:27,406 --> 00:16:32,086 Speaker 2: in that pocket, go through his reads and complete the ball. 275 00:16:32,366 --> 00:16:35,526 Speaker 2: And with Coach Rivera being a friend of the pod, 276 00:16:36,006 --> 00:16:38,846 Speaker 2: he's got to be my bet. Romacho, Sam Howe, I 277 00:16:38,926 --> 00:16:39,606 Speaker 2: love that, you. 278 00:16:39,566 --> 00:16:41,126 Speaker 1: Know what, and it's and it's a tea that we 279 00:16:41,526 --> 00:16:46,006 Speaker 1: don't really talk about enough in general right outside of 280 00:16:46,046 --> 00:16:47,846 Speaker 1: just talking to Ron, but like what they've done the 281 00:16:47,926 --> 00:16:50,686 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks, I think has been under the radar, 282 00:16:50,766 --> 00:16:52,486 Speaker 1: and I get it, we're just two weeks in. But 283 00:16:52,526 --> 00:16:54,566 Speaker 1: I love that you picked some how because yes, coach 284 00:16:54,606 --> 00:16:58,246 Speaker 1: said it right here on the Alhada podcast. So boom, 285 00:16:58,686 --> 00:17:00,446 Speaker 1: yeah concept done. 286 00:17:00,886 --> 00:17:05,686 Speaker 2: There you go. Okayamana, we are cooking.

Absolutely, tuio somos Latinos. That is what 342 00:21:19,406 --> 00:21:22,846 Speaker 2: it's all about. And we are all about celebrating the 343 00:21:22,926 --> 00:21:26,846 Speaker 2: Latino culture, right and and celebrating the NFL and what 344 00:21:26,926 --> 00:21:30,366 Speaker 2: that's all about and those voices that make it so special, 345 00:21:31,006 --> 00:21:36,446 Speaker 2: and with this particular piece, seeing Lesbandettas, hearing the music, 346 00:21:36,966 --> 00:21:41,006 Speaker 2: those images, and really when we talk about Lacuda, we 347 00:21:41,046 --> 00:21:45,366 Speaker 2: talk about Latamilia too. And in English it said football 348 00:21:45,486 --> 00:21:49,366 Speaker 2: is family. Well, familia is important right when we talk 349 00:21:49,406 --> 00:21:53,366 Speaker 2: about it in our in our culture. And to see 350 00:21:53,406 --> 00:21:56,686 Speaker 2: the job that she did, and it is a love 351 00:21:56,766 --> 00:22:03,166 Speaker 2: letter to to Otter's Latinos, right, and I thought it 352 00:22:03,206 --> 00:22:05,646 Speaker 2: was really well done. Highly recommend if you want to 353 00:22:05,686 --> 00:22:10,686 Speaker 2: see the visual of it to go onto the forty 354 00:22:10,726 --> 00:22:13,606 Speaker 2: nine ers website or check it out on social media 355 00:22:13,606 --> 00:22:15,726 Speaker 2: because it's definitely worth it. 356 00:22:15,726 --> 00:22:17,726 Speaker 1: It's good. It's a really really good job. But yeah, 357 00:22:17,766 --> 00:22:20,246 Speaker 1: so I mean, I feel like we should tell folks like, hey, 358 00:22:20,566 --> 00:22:24,326 Speaker 1: this Latino heritage one, go on there and learn something 359 00:22:24,446 --> 00:22:28,526 Speaker 1: new about a country you didn't know before. Maybe somebody 360 00:22:28,526 --> 00:22:30,446 Speaker 1: who didn't know was part of the Latino culture, who 361 00:22:30,486 --> 00:22:34,886 Speaker 1: doesn't look the way that mainstream media portrays Latinos to 362 00:22:34,966 --> 00:22:37,406 Speaker 1: always look like. I think that's the point, is like 363 00:22:37,446 --> 00:22:41,886 Speaker 1: the layers there within within all of our all of 364 00:22:41,886 --> 00:22:44,846 Speaker 1: our backgrounds that makes it so beautiful. So I'm excited. 365 00:22:44,926 --> 00:22:47,046 Speaker 1: We're just a few days in because it started the fifteenth, 366 00:22:47,206 --> 00:22:49,926 Speaker 1: so just three days into this thing, we've got lots 367 00:22:49,926 --> 00:22:51,246 Speaker 1: of young and'll be sick of us by the end 368 00:22:51,246 --> 00:22:53,886 Speaker 1: of this take it. 369 00:22:55,086 --> 00:22:58,846 Speaker 2: Honestly though, it's like, you know, there's there's Salvadorian restaurants, 370 00:22:58,966 --> 00:23:06,366 Speaker 2: Nicaraguan restaurants, Colombian restaurants. Go to the Delicious. Yeah, yeah, exactly, 371 00:23:06,406 --> 00:23:10,606 Speaker 2: and you learned something about the different cuisines and you'll 372 00:23:10,606 --> 00:23:13,046 Speaker 2: see it's like if you not had a platano, what 373 00:23:13,086 --> 00:23:16,246 Speaker 2: are you missing? Or poopoosas you know, it's like, go 374 00:23:16,366 --> 00:23:18,726 Speaker 2: and order those things and you get a taste of it. 375 00:23:19,086 --> 00:23:22,006 Speaker 2: And so I'm glad that we have this podcast. We're 376 00:23:22,046 --> 00:23:24,446 Speaker 2: able to amplify and that's why we do some of 377 00:23:24,486 --> 00:23:27,366 Speaker 2: the segments or we we name the segments what they are, 378 00:23:27,446 --> 00:23:30,686 Speaker 2: because there are a piece of us exactly right. And 379 00:23:30,726 --> 00:23:32,966 Speaker 2: so we talking about Ferromacho. I mean, that's something that 380 00:23:32,966 --> 00:23:35,646 Speaker 2: that I grew up hearing from. My parents were from Nicaragua, 381 00:23:35,766 --> 00:23:37,566 Speaker 2: so it's very different. But like what I had set 382 00:23:37,606 --> 00:23:41,286 Speaker 2: off the top of listening to Mariachi's there at at 383 00:23:41,326 --> 00:23:44,966 Speaker 2: Sofi Stadium, it's like, yes, that that's in Mexico. They 384 00:23:44,966 --> 00:23:50,406 Speaker 2: aren't Mariachi's in Nicaragua. But you still connect with it, right, 385 00:23:50,446 --> 00:23:52,726 Speaker 2: You still connect with it, and it's just that that's 386 00:23:52,726 --> 00:23:55,446 Speaker 2: the music that moves you so so well done all 387 00:23:55,446 --> 00:23:59,286 Speaker 2: the way around. We talked about the different segments that 388 00:23:59,366 --> 00:24:01,966 Speaker 2: we have in Spanish, and you know one of them 389 00:24:02,086 --> 00:24:05,166 Speaker 2: where it's like, hey, we basically call bs or not 390 00:24:05,526 --> 00:24:15,046 Speaker 2: and they my parents would call it Buddhus maccanas. Is 391 00:24:15,166 --> 00:24:18,286 Speaker 2: such a great way to put things. If you're not 392 00:24:18,486 --> 00:24:22,766 Speaker 2: really feeling something, or you think somebody is exaggerating something 393 00:24:22,886 --> 00:24:27,246 Speaker 2: or bsing, you say buddhas macgannas. Well, we have a 394 00:24:27,286 --> 00:24:32,766 Speaker 2: situation that's brewing in Los Angeles with the Chargers right now. 395 00:24:33,926 --> 00:24:38,206 Speaker 2: They have started the season zero to two MJ. There's 396 00:24:38,246 --> 00:24:42,126 Speaker 2: a lot of expectations on this team, and they had 397 00:24:42,206 --> 00:24:48,326 Speaker 2: lost that playoff game twenty after they were up twenty 398 00:24:48,366 --> 00:24:52,326 Speaker 2: seven to nothing and the Jaguars came back and people 399 00:24:52,326 --> 00:24:55,446 Speaker 2: were wondering the offseason how they would respond or if 400 00:24:55,486 --> 00:24:59,486 Speaker 2: there would be a carryover. So head coach Brendan Staley 401 00:25:00,286 --> 00:25:04,326 Speaker 2: talked about it after taking an l against the Titans. 402 00:25:05,326 --> 00:25:08,006 Speaker 5: I'm not worried about the Jacksonville loss. The Jacksonville loss 403 00:25:08,046 --> 00:25:10,726 Speaker 5: hasn't carried on to the season whatsoever. If you've seen 404 00:25:10,766 --> 00:25:12,686 Speaker 5: our training camp or you've seen the way we've played 405 00:25:12,726 --> 00:25:14,686 Speaker 5: in the first two games, it hasn't had an impact 406 00:25:14,686 --> 00:25:17,166 Speaker 5: on our team whatsoever. Our team is connected. Our team 407 00:25:17,166 --> 00:25:18,726 Speaker 5: has played it's hard out in two games, and we've 408 00:25:18,766 --> 00:25:21,206 Speaker 5: lost two tough games. But there has nothing to do 409 00:25:21,686 --> 00:25:23,646 Speaker 5: with the Jacksonville game. And if you ask anyone in 410 00:25:23,686 --> 00:25:25,366 Speaker 5: our locker room, it has nothing to do with the 411 00:25:25,446 --> 00:25:28,246 Speaker 5: Jacksonville game. And that's just the truth. It's a convenience 412 00:25:28,246 --> 00:25:31,526 Speaker 5: storyline for you and for everybody else, but it's not 413 00:25:31,606 --> 00:25:34,246 Speaker 5: the truth. We've lost two tough games. But the guys 414 00:25:34,246 --> 00:25:35,846 Speaker 5: in that locker room, the men in that locker room, 415 00:25:36,166 --> 00:25:38,286 Speaker 5: they are finishers and they have what it takes and 416 00:25:38,326 --> 00:25:41,206 Speaker 5: we're excited to prove ourselves. Yeah, we just lost a 417 00:25:41,206 --> 00:25:42,806 Speaker 5: game in overtime, Jeff. So how do you think the 418 00:25:42,846 --> 00:25:46,766 Speaker 5: mood is. How do you think the mood is? How 419 00:25:46,766 --> 00:25:48,326 Speaker 5: do you think it is. It's tough, it's tough. It's 420 00:25:48,366 --> 00:25:49,686 Speaker 5: a tough it's tough group in there. There's a lot 421 00:25:49,726 --> 00:25:51,526 Speaker 5: of pride in that room, okay, and we put a 422 00:25:51,526 --> 00:25:54,326 Speaker 5: lot into this and we got a good football team. 423 00:25:54,886 --> 00:25:56,846 Speaker 2: Listen, what does it wrong. 424 00:25:57,726 --> 00:26:02,286 Speaker 1: No, I mean I love a spicy coach moment, and 425 00:26:02,326 --> 00:26:05,926 Speaker 1: like it is like that's how part is when you're 426 00:26:05,966 --> 00:26:08,046 Speaker 1: in there as part of the press corps, right, and 427 00:26:08,086 --> 00:26:10,206 Speaker 1: that's like our side of it. You sort of have 428 00:26:10,286 --> 00:26:12,566 Speaker 1: to ask those questions. I think there's a way to 429 00:26:12,726 --> 00:26:15,566 Speaker 1: ask it. But I think leading up to it, like oh, 430 00:26:16,046 --> 00:26:18,966 Speaker 1: when you're talking about a game from last year last playoffs, 431 00:26:19,006 --> 00:26:21,606 Speaker 1: like that's so I would have popped off too if 432 00:26:21,606 --> 00:26:21,806 Speaker 1: I was. 433 00:26:23,646 --> 00:26:26,206 Speaker 2: But but do you think that there is any truth 434 00:26:26,246 --> 00:26:27,446 Speaker 2: to it at all? 435 00:26:28,686 --> 00:26:32,766 Speaker 1: No, I don't think this is what he's saying or 436 00:26:32,766 --> 00:26:33,406 Speaker 1: what they're asking. 437 00:26:34,166 --> 00:26:36,406 Speaker 2: Well either or no. 438 00:26:36,406 --> 00:26:40,726 Speaker 1: I don't because unfortunately, this is sort of the script 439 00:26:41,406 --> 00:26:44,206 Speaker 1: for the Chargers over and over and over against season 440 00:26:44,286 --> 00:26:47,726 Speaker 1: after season. Even if you just take Week one and 441 00:26:47,766 --> 00:26:51,206 Speaker 1: Week two of this year, games that looked like like, 442 00:26:51,326 --> 00:26:53,326 Speaker 1: look we were I was in the stands as a 443 00:26:53,446 --> 00:26:55,846 Speaker 1: yes watched it early that day, and I was watching like, 444 00:26:55,886 --> 00:26:59,566 Speaker 1: oh crap, Like they were in it the entire game, 445 00:26:59,606 --> 00:27:02,166 Speaker 1: and there were a lot of opportunities for them to 446 00:27:02,246 --> 00:27:07,126 Speaker 1: seal it in and get the w. Yesterday against the Titans, 447 00:27:07,126 --> 00:27:10,086 Speaker 1: like they went all the way to overtime and just 448 00:27:10,246 --> 00:27:12,846 Speaker 1: couldn't squeak it out, and that happens over and over 449 00:27:12,886 --> 00:27:15,006 Speaker 1: and over again. I don't know if they have umalleojo, 450 00:27:15,846 --> 00:27:20,286 Speaker 1: some bad juju on them, whether it says talent is there. 451 00:27:20,366 --> 00:27:22,526 Speaker 1: It's not that they're not executing or they're not playing 452 00:27:22,606 --> 00:27:25,366 Speaker 1: up to their potential. They are. They just can't close 453 00:27:25,406 --> 00:27:27,846 Speaker 1: out these games. So I do agree with coach. I 454 00:27:27,886 --> 00:27:30,286 Speaker 1: don't think it has anything to do with that one 455 00:27:30,366 --> 00:27:34,486 Speaker 1: game against Jacksonville in a playoff scenario from last year. No, 456 00:27:34,846 --> 00:27:38,126 Speaker 1: that's not it. But it is sort of the tail 457 00:27:38,806 --> 00:27:40,966 Speaker 1: of the Bolts, and I hate to see it because 458 00:27:41,006 --> 00:27:44,046 Speaker 1: I want to see them continue to be competitive, actually 459 00:27:44,046 --> 00:27:45,206 Speaker 1: get some w's on the board. 460 00:27:45,846 --> 00:27:47,926 Speaker 2: No, me too. And they have the talent. They've got 461 00:27:48,006 --> 00:27:51,886 Speaker 2: stars on that team. They've got this incredible gun slinger 462 00:27:52,006 --> 00:27:56,606 Speaker 2: at quarterback, Austin Ekler when he's healthy, is extremely effective. 463 00:27:56,686 --> 00:27:59,486 Speaker 2: They've got the wide receivers, you know, Keenan Allen had 464 00:27:59,526 --> 00:28:03,166 Speaker 2: a big day against Tennessee. It's just it's just something 465 00:28:03,486 --> 00:28:09,166 Speaker 2: about these these these losses where they just are are 466 00:28:09,406 --> 00:28:13,966 Speaker 2: so crushing. Yeah, it's so gut wrenching, and you want 467 00:28:13,966 --> 00:28:17,206 Speaker 2: to see them succeed. We love Brandon Staley and and 468 00:28:17,486 --> 00:28:20,326 Speaker 2: nice guy. It's just I wonder if he's starting to 469 00:28:20,326 --> 00:28:23,246 Speaker 2: feel a little bit of that heat cranking up now 470 00:28:23,846 --> 00:28:26,446 Speaker 2: given the expectations, right, And. 471 00:28:26,406 --> 00:28:28,526 Speaker 1: They just paid their quarterback, so of. 472 00:28:28,366 --> 00:28:34,486 Speaker 2: Course, right, right, So so that's like, that's an zero 473 00:28:34,526 --> 00:28:38,006 Speaker 2: to two team that concerns me. And you mentioned the 474 00:28:38,086 --> 00:28:42,446 Speaker 2: quarterback getting paid. While we're on the subject, Joe Burrow 475 00:28:43,006 --> 00:28:45,446 Speaker 2: and the Bengals are oh into and talk about a 476 00:28:45,446 --> 00:28:49,486 Speaker 2: lot of expectations. That's another team that people were expecting 477 00:28:49,526 --> 00:28:52,806 Speaker 2: to potentially go back to the Super Bowl again given 478 00:28:52,886 --> 00:28:55,126 Speaker 2: all the talent around him. He did get hurt, that 479 00:28:55,246 --> 00:28:58,926 Speaker 2: cap injury did flare up, but the offense still is 480 00:28:59,046 --> 00:29:02,446 Speaker 2: not the way that it was in previous years. DeMar 481 00:29:02,566 --> 00:29:04,686 Speaker 2: Chase is not getting the ball enough. 482 00:29:05,206 --> 00:29:08,086 Speaker 1: Even the ground game, which they were pretty balanced, which 483 00:29:08,166 --> 00:29:10,686 Speaker 1: right made them such a jugg ernaut the last couple 484 00:29:10,766 --> 00:29:13,766 Speaker 1: of seasons, even that can't get going. So yeah, you're right. 485 00:29:14,246 --> 00:29:16,646 Speaker 2: Yeah, and they start off oh and two before, so 486 00:29:16,686 --> 00:29:20,006 Speaker 2: we've seen this and you can use that as a 487 00:29:20,046 --> 00:29:22,766 Speaker 2: crutch if you want and say, hey, they've been through it. 488 00:29:23,966 --> 00:29:26,286 Speaker 2: You know, they know what they're doing and they can 489 00:29:26,326 --> 00:29:30,246 Speaker 2: get out of it. Yeah, can they. Let's hope and 490 00:29:30,326 --> 00:29:33,566 Speaker 2: let's hope that that calf is not a serious one 491 00:29:33,606 --> 00:29:38,086 Speaker 2: because clearly the the Browns have Joe Burrow's number, and 492 00:29:38,126 --> 00:29:40,926 Speaker 2: you know who else has their number, the Ravens. So 493 00:29:42,526 --> 00:29:45,566 Speaker 2: do the Steelers now, you know, get their chance to 494 00:29:45,606 --> 00:29:47,486 Speaker 2: do they have their number? I mean, how many teams 495 00:29:47,686 --> 00:29:51,526 Speaker 2: are going to have their number? Right? So again you know, 496 00:29:51,686 --> 00:29:54,086 Speaker 2: oh and two. It's not the end of the. 497 00:29:54,006 --> 00:29:58,766 Speaker 1: World, but right, like, no one panic yet, not yet, 498 00:29:58,806 --> 00:30:01,326 Speaker 1: but just so that it keeps on for sure, for sure, 499 00:30:01,366 --> 00:30:01,686 Speaker 1: for sure. 500 00:30:01,806 --> 00:30:04,726 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so yeah, definitely a concern. 501 00:30:05,806 --> 00:30:07,406 Speaker 1: We're getting heavy here, so I think we got to 502 00:30:07,766 --> 00:30:08,846 Speaker 1: lighten the things up to. 503 00:30:08,886 --> 00:30:11,486 Speaker 2: Close up here. Yeah, how should we do it? 504 00:30:11,886 --> 00:30:15,046 Speaker 1: One of my favorite moments from what we just saw 505 00:30:15,086 --> 00:30:19,246 Speaker 1: coach Daily pop off and sometimes the refs have to 506 00:30:19,246 --> 00:30:22,686 Speaker 1: put people in check for a moment, like what happened 507 00:30:22,846 --> 00:30:24,046 Speaker 1: during the Seahawks game. 508 00:30:26,406 --> 00:30:30,606 Speaker 6: Potentional Brownier offense number seven ten. 509 00:30:31,926 --> 00:30:32,966 Speaker 2: I'm talking to America. 510 00:30:33,006 --> 00:30:35,326 Speaker 1: Here's fool ten yard. 511 00:30:35,086 --> 00:30:37,366 Speaker 2: Penalty and a loss of down, Marty sucking down. 512 00:30:37,966 --> 00:30:40,006 Speaker 6: That is the best line I've ever heard, Adam Official. 513 00:30:40,006 --> 00:30:41,886 Speaker 6: We'll get to the penalty in a minute. He just 514 00:30:41,926 --> 00:30:45,606 Speaker 6: told Tino Smith, I'm talking to America. Carol is living well, 515 00:30:45,606 --> 00:30:48,086 Speaker 6: he wasn't pressure to say it shouldn't be growning, right, Yeah, 516 00:30:48,126 --> 00:30:50,766 Speaker 6: and it was really it was clearly it was not 517 00:30:50,846 --> 00:30:52,686 Speaker 6: a throw to get the ball out of his hand. 518 00:30:52,806 --> 00:30:56,766 Speaker 6: It was clearly miscommunication between Tyler Lockett. 519 00:30:57,326 --> 00:30:59,966 Speaker 1: Oh my god, I think you're seeing coach on the 520 00:30:59,966 --> 00:31:06,966 Speaker 1: sideline ye crazy takes from the pure shades.

More about me, just a perfect moment. 524 00:31:17,966 --> 00:31:20,006 Speaker 1: He's like, how dare you get in my camera shot? 525 00:31:21,166 --> 00:31:23,406 Speaker 2: It is so good. I have never seen that either, 526 00:31:23,806 --> 00:31:27,166 Speaker 2: because obviously the refs don't ever want to be the 527 00:31:27,206 --> 00:31:28,006 Speaker 2: center of attention. 528 00:31:29,246 --> 00:31:32,686 Speaker 1: But he did it so smoothly. G Please, I'm. 529 00:31:32,486 --> 00:31:36,406 Speaker 2: Talking to America. That's maybe that's why we even tell 530 00:31:36,406 --> 00:31:39,606 Speaker 2: people maybe next time we're on TV. Can you imagine 531 00:31:39,606 --> 00:31:43,326 Speaker 2: if we said that to people, you know whoever?

I will be incorporating. 545 00:32:34,766 --> 00:32:35,966 Speaker 1: I'm talking to America right now. 546 00:32:36,966 --> 00:32:38,166 Speaker 2: No, you know, what I think I'm going to do. 547 00:32:38,206 --> 00:32:39,366 Speaker 1: I'm an acular for sure. 548 00:32:39,726 --> 00:32:41,926 Speaker 2: I think what I'm going to do is I'm going 549 00:32:42,006 --> 00:32:45,486 Speaker 2: to make that like my voicemail greeting. I think that's 550 00:32:45,526 --> 00:32:45,726 Speaker 2: what it. 551 00:32:45,926 --> 00:32:50,006 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. Yeah wait, I don't know.

I think I did too. Yeah, 555 00:32:57,926 --> 00:33:00,646 Speaker 2: I think I think I did too. Yeah, I don't know. 556 00:33:00,926 --> 00:33:03,566 Speaker 2: It's like it's like sometimes I've thought about this because 557 00:33:03,646 --> 00:33:07,846 Speaker 2: al Michaels is that when he you know, goes and 558 00:33:07,966 --> 00:33:10,326 Speaker 2: he's in the airport and their fans that say, hey, 559 00:33:10,406 --> 00:33:14,166 Speaker 2: can you just just say do you believe in miracles. Yes, 560 00:33:14,766 --> 00:33:17,246 Speaker 2: you know, such and such isn't home, you know what 561 00:33:17,286 --> 00:33:19,326 Speaker 2: I mean? Do that? So? 562 00:33:19,886 --> 00:33:22,486 Speaker 1: I don't know, can we get the ref? Can we 563 00:33:22,526 --> 00:33:24,566 Speaker 1: get the ref to just say that line from time 564 00:33:24,646 --> 00:33:27,966 Speaker 1: to America here much? 565 00:33:28,486 --> 00:33:31,606 Speaker 2: I love that? So I think that's an bunto right? There? 566 00:33:32,526 --> 00:33:35,606 Speaker 2: Is there any otherno? Did you want to put a 567 00:33:35,646 --> 00:33:39,246 Speaker 2: bow on things that stood out to you before? 568 00:33:39,086 --> 00:33:42,446 Speaker 1: You're going to choose my handle? It's very soft tooth like, 569 00:33:42,486 --> 00:33:45,206 Speaker 1: and his his his Piranha stage, but it's it doesn't 570 00:33:45,606 --> 00:33:50,406 Speaker 1: like he's just nipping my bunto is. I really hope 571 00:33:50,766 --> 00:33:54,206 Speaker 1: that the Dolphins keep this going great. It's great for 572 00:33:54,286 --> 00:33:56,726 Speaker 1: our social media. I think they will. I'm very excited. 573 00:33:56,766 --> 00:34:01,606 Speaker 1: I loved coach McDaniel's speech after the game. He said, 574 00:34:01,766 --> 00:34:04,526 Speaker 1: the good teams continue to find a way to win. 575 00:34:05,086 --> 00:34:06,606 Speaker 1: I think the line that really stood out to me 576 00:34:06,766 --> 00:34:09,406 Speaker 1: was we didn't ask for this to be pretty. We 577 00:34:09,566 --> 00:34:10,366 Speaker 1: just asked to get the. 578 00:34:10,326 --> 00:34:12,006 Speaker 2: Win, and they like it. 579 00:34:12,366 --> 00:34:14,806 Speaker 1: I like it, and that's true. It's not always pretty, 580 00:34:15,046 --> 00:34:16,646 Speaker 1: but you got it as long as you improve on 581 00:34:16,726 --> 00:34:20,086 Speaker 1: it and prove to folks who you want to be, 582 00:34:20,126 --> 00:34:22,206 Speaker 1: which is part of his speech. I like that. I 583 00:34:22,246 --> 00:34:24,686 Speaker 1: think that can be applied to so many different things 584 00:34:24,726 --> 00:34:25,086 Speaker 1: in life. 585 00:34:26,086 --> 00:34:31,046 Speaker 2: I agree. I think the ibunto with the referee is great. 586 00:34:31,086 --> 00:34:33,446 Speaker 2: What you said is great. And the other thing I 587 00:34:33,486 --> 00:34:36,286 Speaker 2: will say is there is some hope in some of 588 00:34:36,326 --> 00:34:41,326 Speaker 2: these places. For the Cardinals after Week one, the call 589 00:34:41,406 --> 00:34:45,366 Speaker 2: was ooh, Caleb Williams quarterback from USC and all that 590 00:34:45,646 --> 00:34:48,686 Speaker 2: they've actually shown fight. Does this mean they're going to 591 00:34:48,766 --> 00:34:51,806 Speaker 2: run the table. No, and I don't think that they're 592 00:34:51,806 --> 00:34:53,726 Speaker 2: going to do that. But I'm just saying they're showing 593 00:34:53,766 --> 00:34:57,086 Speaker 2: some actual fight. And the same goes for the Texans. 594 00:34:57,326 --> 00:34:59,806 Speaker 2: They have a new quarter a new quarterback, and they 595 00:34:59,806 --> 00:35:02,566 Speaker 2: have a new head coach. And I think with CJ. Stroud, 596 00:35:02,806 --> 00:35:04,846 Speaker 2: he showed me a lot there. He showed me a 597 00:35:05,046 --> 00:35:09,486 Speaker 2: over three hundred yards passing, So, uh, take take some 598 00:35:09,686 --> 00:35:16,206 Speaker 2: solace in that. And Jim talking to America right now. Finish. 599 00:35:16,446 --> 00:35:17,126 Speaker 2: That's all I want. 600 00:35:17,846 --> 00:35:22,686 Speaker 1: Uh, well playing, Yes, there's a lot of football f folks. 601 00:35:23,806 --> 00:35:33,766 Speaker 2: Yes it is.
