Speaker 2: If Dallas is pivoting to edge Trey Hendrickson over Max Crosby,

31
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,720

00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 2: And then later on we'll do a belly whopper as

63
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 2: we do have Mallard to the third degree.

64
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:58,040

00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right.

67
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 2: It's basically bashing our friend weed man hippie in Miami.

68
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 2: But it'll be lame jokes of the week that'll be

69
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 2: coming up in our number three. But opportunity knocks.

70
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 1: There you go. It's a preview. There's a preview of.

71
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 2: Lame jokes, all right, So our lead to begin, We're

72
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:23,159
Speaker 2: gonna start with the grapevine. It is the silly season,

73
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 2: and when it is the silly season, you must go

74
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 2: on a rampage and enjoy every little nugget that comes out.

75
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 2: So we start out deep in the heart of Texas.

76
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 2: The plot thickens in Jerry's world. Have you heard the

77
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 2: latest on this? Have you been following? No, you're okay?

78
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: Good? Good for you? Maybe not.

79
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 2: So we learned now that the Cowboys thought they assumed,

80
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 2: you know what happens when you assume they were close

81
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 2: to acquiring Raiders edge rusher Max Crosby. That's Max with

82
00:04:55,480 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 2: two xes, not three xes. Max Crosby via a trade

83
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 2: this week. However, apparently that did not happen because he's

84
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 2: Crosby's nd been traded and the other teams have been

85
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 2: sniffing around trying to get in there. And so now

86
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 2: the offers that the Raiders have are supposedly greater than

87
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,719
Speaker 2: the Cowboys offer, and I love that. The report said

88
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 2: that the offers for Crosby are potentially potentially.

89
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 1: Up to two first round draft picks.

90
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:34,599
Speaker 2: So the Cowboys, again this is the scuttle butt, have

91
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 2: tapped out. They've tossed in the sponge here and pivoted

92
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 2: to free agent defensive end or soon to be free

93
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 2: agent defensive end Trey Hendrickson, who the Bengals decided.

94
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,480
Speaker 1: They didn't want to pay anymore and so they got

95
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,480
Speaker 1: rid of him. Get out of here, you're done. We

96
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 1: can have the NFL's worst defense without you. We don't

97
00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 1: need you.

98
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 2: So that is a good jumping off point. Let us discuss.

99
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:05,839
Speaker 2: There's a lot to this. So the question the reporting

100
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 2: the Cowboys are bowing out of the Max Crosby sweepsteaks.

101
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:12,479
Speaker 2: What's that storyline?

102
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: Tell you? So my thoughts on this. I've got QBC.

103
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 2: Madrid and large yellow sticker, and we will combine all

104
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 2: of these things together and we're going to pull the

105
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 2: pin on an audio.

106
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: Grenade, is what we're going to do.

107
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, I know, all right, So A I

108
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 2: like to use the time tested Mallard Schnaz test and

109
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:43,160
Speaker 2: do the old smell test.

110
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna do that right now.

111
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:50,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, so smells like Jerry Jones is doing what Jerry

112
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 2: Jones does best. He wins the off season. You can

113
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 2: rip them all you want, you can say that what

114
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 2: he does is a throwback to medieval times, but he

115
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 2: wins the all off season, the marketing circus under the

116
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 2: big top fund for all ages, Come one, come a

117
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 2: Jerry's great at it. Not just an owner, He's a

118
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 2: marketing maven, an absolute marketing maven. The Guide treats the

119
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 2: NFL like QVC. Everything is a promotion, Everything is a

120
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 2: teaser trailer. Jerry leaks out, Dallas is out, the Sharks

121
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 2: starts circling. The debate shows start going on and on

122
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 2: about the cowboys. Of course, Jerry don't have to say

123
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 2: anything for the debate shows to talk about the cowboys.

124
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 2: Everyone gets all worked into a lather, all worked into

125
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 2: a ladder, and suddenly the cowboys are the lead story

126
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 2: yet again. And Max Crosby right now is sitting on

127
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 2: a folding chair somewhere out there, maybe a table, I think,

128
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 2: maybe a chair, sitting on a chair there, And the

129
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 2: flea market is open for business. And then the Raiders

130
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 2: are walking around and Tom Brady's got his skinny pants on.

131
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 2: You get the megaphone out there, who wants an all

132
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 2: pro pass rusher? Come on down, Come on down right now?

133
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 2: Do I hear two first round picks? How about two

134
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 2: first rounds? The second round pick? Now, somebody, here's my

135
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 2: theory on this. If somebody met the reserve price for

136
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 2: Max Crosby.

137
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: Then he wouldn't be in Vegas.

138
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 2: And I just checked before we cracked the microphones and

139
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 2: he's still He's still with the Raiders, so he.

140
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 1: Hadn't been traded.

141
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 2: There's no report of a trade happening, so that would

142
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,239
Speaker 2: mean that that report was wishful thinking.

143
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 1: And they did use the weasel word.

144
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 2: Remember this is the time of the year Pop goes

145
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 2: to weasel You got to pay attention to the weasel words.

146
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 2: And so when you use words like potentially a right,

147
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 2: potentially great weasel word, really solid weasel word, potentially.

148
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just outstanding. So throw it all together.

149
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:55,559
Speaker 2: And it hadn't happened in the trade of Max Crosby, Say, Jerry,

150
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,719
Speaker 2: is it possible Is there a world, a dimension in

151
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:04,080
Speaker 2: the multiverse where Jerry Owns leaked this out? And the Cowboys.

152
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,840
Speaker 2: They stay in the headlines. And then it's the art

153
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 2: of negotiation via trickeration, the old negotiation trickeration, smoke mirrors

154
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 2: and a couple of planted stories to useful idiots in

155
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 2: the media, and the message to Crosby. It's like a

156
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 2: dog whistle to Crosby. And I'll say, hey, listen, if

157
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 2: you want to play in Dallas, which is the Raiders

158
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 2: with a different logo on the helmet, then start raising

159
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 2: a ruckus in Vegas. You got to create chaos, a

160
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 2: hulla baloo if you want that. Now, keeping the theme

161
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 2: going page two here, as we continue all night on

162
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 2: the Ben Maler Show, so we are told the Cowboys

163
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:52,559
Speaker 2: are expected to shift their focus to instead of continuing

164
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 2: to try to get Max Crosby to acquire when the

165
00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:02,319
Speaker 2: new league year begins, free agent Trey Hendrickson of the

166
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,559
Speaker 2: well he was with the Ben Gals. So let's pretend

167
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 2: for the purposes of this Malar monologue that that's not

168
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,840
Speaker 2: some kind of squeeze play and that this is actually

169
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 2: the real deal.

170
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,240
Speaker 1: And that's true. So the question.

171
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 2: If Dallas is pivoting to Trey Hendrickson over Max Crosby,

172
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 2: how big a downgrade.

173
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 1: Would that be for the Cowboys side by side?

174
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 2: So if you go side by side, if the Cowboys

175
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 2: do pivot from Max Crosby to Trey Hendrickson, I'm gonna

176
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 2: use a sandwich analogy, the hogi analogy here. It's similar,

177
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 2: but not the same. For example, Max Crosby, if you

178
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 2: were to look not a list, but a big board,

179
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 2: Benny's big board of sandwiches, a properly made cheese steak.

180
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,959
Speaker 2: As the godfather of Fox Sports Radio, the great Tony Bruno,

181
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 2: taught me years ago, you gotta have the proll alone,

182
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 2: not the cheese whiz on that, the right kind of bread,

183
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 2: the whole thing.

184
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: Throw that together.

185
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,680
Speaker 2: That's a perfect sandwich, the cheese steak sandwich with the onion,

186
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 2: the peppers and all that.

187
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:10,839
Speaker 1: That's the way to do it. Now.

188
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 2: Hendrickson, he's a sandwich. However, he's like a spicy chicken

189
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 2: sandwich that's been sitting out under a heating lamp at

190
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,439
Speaker 2: a seven to eleven for the last twenty two hours.

191
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 2: Not quite the same, not quite the same, a sandwich,

192
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,120
Speaker 2: but not quite the same. Now, both these guys get sacks. However,

193
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 2: when the run game comes towards Hendrickson, he undergoes a metamorphosis.

194
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 2: He travels through time to Madrid, Spain. He becomes a bullfighter,

195
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 2: a matador olay olay olay oley and running backs. They

196
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 2: just go who right by him? Now, Crosby. When you

197
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 2: look at his body of work here, he's a Swiss

198
00:11:55,480 --> 00:12:00,160
Speaker 2: army knife and he's able to play the run, and

199
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 2: he wants to play all the time, and all that

200
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 2: has been durable. And he's also a little bit younger

201
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 2: and in that business, obviously, that's a big deal. The

202
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 2: kind of a guy that is the centerpiece. Not that

203
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,560
Speaker 2: Hendrickson wouldn't be the centerpiece of the cowboys have a

204
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:16,079
Speaker 2: bunch of no names and bums on defense, flotsam and jetsam.

205
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 1: But he's more.

206
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 2: Instead of a Swiss army knife that has a little

207
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 2: bit of everything, he's more like a switchblade.

208
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 1: I doesn't have the other attachments, just a switchblade. That's it.

209
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:29,199
Speaker 1: That's all he's got. So Jerry is being a it

210
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:30,479
Speaker 1: would appear again.

211
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 2: How much of this is true and how much of

212
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 2: this is for public consumption? As Jerry likes to say,

213
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 2: when things get boring around here, I.

214
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:38,439
Speaker 1: Like to stir it up a little bit.

215
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 2: So it looks from the outside that Jerry is being

216
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 2: a frugal shopper, that he's being a frugal shopper, and

217
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:52,440
Speaker 2: budget's tight, and it's true that those mega yachts and

218
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 2: Jerry's got a really nice yacht last we heard, and

219
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 2: you need to have a bunch of people on staff

220
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,560
Speaker 2: for that. If you want to enjoy the South of France,

221
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 2: you got to have the internet on there.

222
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:05,559
Speaker 1: You gotta have the.

223
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 2: Greatest chefs and the cleaning people and servants and all

224
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 2: that on those mega yachts.

225
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: And so if you spend a little more on Max Crosby.

226
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 2: Do you then have to get rid of your butler,

227
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 2: your second or third butler.

228
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:21,960
Speaker 1: On the yacht. That's a tough decision.

229
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 2: I think we can all understand and relate to the

230
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,680
Speaker 2: dilemma that Jerry would have. All right, now, last word

231
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,680
Speaker 2: to the belt Way, we go a player that we

232
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 2: have talked about way too much. I was saying about

233
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 2: this when I was coming in to the studio, was like,

234
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:37,720
Speaker 2: we have talked about this guy way too much, considering

235
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,839
Speaker 2: how few impact moments he's had in his career. Now

236
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 2: who am I talking about? That would be Brandon Auk,

237
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 2: the wide receiver who I guess is technically part of

238
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,079
Speaker 2: the forty nine Ers. I guess the new league year

239
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 2: starts next week. So there is some chatter, and we

240
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 2: love our chatter, that the Commanders could sign Brandon Auck

241
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 2: to a one year proven deal, a one year prove

242
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 2: it deal if the forty nine Ers.

243
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 1: End up doing they release.

244
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 2: Them, which I assume we all assume that's going to happen.

245
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 1: It seems like.

246
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 2: That's obviously the Niners have pretty much said they're gonna

247
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:16,200
Speaker 2: get rid of him, whether they trade them.

248
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 1: Or release them.

249
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,320
Speaker 2: More likely you would just release them, because why would

250
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 2: you trade for a player who's going to be released anyway?

251
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 2: So the question on this one what stands out, if anything,

252
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 2: what stands out to you about Washington, the team formerly

253
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 2: known as the Redskins looking to add wide receiver Brandon

254
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 2: Iyuk on a prove it contract.

255
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: So the first thing is rather clear. I think everyone

256
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 1: you can. You know, the.

257
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 2: Person in the back of the room over, the person

258
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 2: in the way in the back of the warehouse is

259
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 2: not even listening.

260
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 1: They know.

261
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 2: The NFL motto is never give up on talent, even

262
00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 2: when the talent, like in this ca This is clearly

263
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 2: given up on their own frontal lobe. You just don't

264
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 2: give up on the talent, you don't, you know. And

265
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 2: there's a wide receiver right now in jail who killed

266
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 2: a young woman and her dog. They burned up alive

267
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 2: because of him, and he's gonna get out of jail

268
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 2: relatively soon, and someone's gonna give him a tryout. That's

269
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 2: how the NFL operates. That's how they do things there. Obviously,

270
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 2: this is not that this is much much different. But

271
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 2: Brandon auc has a large yellow sticker that has been

272
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 2: slapped on his back and it.

273
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 1: Reads buyer, Beware, buyer, Beware.

274
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 2: A dynamic separation merchant, an artist of separation who has

275
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 2: also managed to separate himself from his teammates. His coach

276
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 2: is not his own ego, though he cannot separate himself.

277
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 1: From his own ego.

278
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 2: And after that Frisco fiasco where he cost himself a

279
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 2: cool twenty seven.

280
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 1: Million, you realize in the annals of the.

281
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 2: NFL there are only a handful of people in the

282
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 2: history of the NFL that have blown twenty seven million

283
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 2: dollars of their money guaranteed loot. There's a guy in

284
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 2: jail that was going around robbing banks to go to

285
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 2: Chiefs games and to gamble. And that guy didn't get

286
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 2: twenty seven million when he was robbing banks. This guy

287
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 2: gave up twenty seven million, the steepest exit tax to

288
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 2: leave California yet and so in NFL history, and he's

289
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:29,600
Speaker 2: now looking to have what make it prove it deals,

290
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 2: that's what he's got.

291
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 1: Which even that, you're like, why does he even have that?

292
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: What is he out to prove?

293
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:38,080
Speaker 2: He's out to prove what that He's not some kind

294
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 2: of high speed social media addicted powder keg.

295
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 1: And that's what is it?

296
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 2: If the commanders and then the commanders are in this

297
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 2: weird spot. They came out of know where, they had

298
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 2: sucked for years, They came out of nowhere. It got

299
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 2: to the Final four and then got smoked in the

300
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 2: final four, had that magic playoff run. Jayden Daniels looks

301
00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 2: like he's gonna snap at any moment.

302
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 1: He snapped last year.

303
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,360
Speaker 2: And the commanders are terrible, And so if they pull

304
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:09,119
Speaker 2: the trigger on this, they can enjoy a nice lunch

305
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 2: menu that includes their own sandwich, the knuckle Sandwich from

306
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 2: the Knucklehead in Chief, and look forward to the two

307
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 2: receiver set in Washington. On one side, you'll have scary

308
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 2: Terry McLaren. On the other side, you'll have scary immaturity

309
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:32,880
Speaker 2: AYUK and good luck, good Luck and Washington supposedly realizing

310
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:34,399
Speaker 2: that even if they got this guy, they still have

311
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 2: to go get somebody else at the White opposition.

312
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 1: And so the reason you would have to do.

313
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:44,639
Speaker 2: That is because whoever adds the soon to be former

314
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:45,240

Speaker 2: The rest of Raider Nation assured me that Max will

449
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 2: be a Raider for life. If you can't trust Raider Nation,

450
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,399
Speaker 2: you can't trust anybody. You're trying to annoy, Perito. I

00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 2: Marcus Steve writes, and he says, are we sure that

457
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 2: Brandon I just refuse to play for the San Francisco

458
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 2: forty nine ers because he was tired of the living

459
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 2: in San Francisco with all the homeless and the drug

460
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:28,120
Speaker 2: addicts or not? He wrote, Nor, I think he meant not. Yeah,

461
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:29,879

463
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:33,360

00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:34,639
Speaker 8: while we were in Frisco.

465
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:38,399

00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 2: that's the spot right there.

467
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 1: I'm sure they would have loved to share.

468
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 2: And the cool thing when you walk the streets of

469
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:48,959
Speaker 2: downtown San Francisco, it's it's like an obstacle course, you know,

470
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,440
Speaker 2: do you step over the guy who's taking a nap.

471
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 1: Because he had too much too many drugs, or do

472
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 1: you walk around them? It's you have to decide that

473
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,199
Speaker 1: when you're walking, like, I don't know. I do like that.

474
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 2: They pushed everyone over a couple of blocks when the

475
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 2: super Bowl was there, so then people that were shuttled

476
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,200
Speaker 2: in on limousines like Pat McAfee were.

477
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 1: Like, oh, I don't understand what everyone's talking.

478
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:13,120
Speaker 2: About Live the Overnight Radio Life Buddy, walk a few

479
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:13,680
Speaker 2: blocks over.

480
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 1: It's an eye opening experience.

481
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 2: Michael writes in says, hey, Ben always a plus on

482
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 2: the monologue. But it doesn't matter what you say, Tom

483
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 2: in Texas will always hate you. How dare you talk

484
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:30,880
Speaker 2: about the Cowboys football or anything related to sports. I'd

485
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 2: like to hear blind Scott have a fight with that. Yeah,

486
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 2: he says, yeah, all right, well there you go. Anyway,

487
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 2: Let's see here. Now we do have someone that would

488
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 2: like to do an octagon on the on the show.

489
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 1: Let me see here, let me go to him. Is

490
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:54,720
Speaker 1: he online right now? Is that? Is that I think, so, okay, no,

491
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:55,159
Speaker 1: he is.

492
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 2: Uh, let's go to Lucky Tony, who is throwing down

493
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 2: the gauntlet. Is this correct, Lucky Tony? Are you throwing

494
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:03,960
Speaker 2: down the gauntlet here, Tony?

495
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 9: Well, if the guys online. If not, I'm just trying

496
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:09,439
Speaker 9: to entertain the masses, you know what I mean?

497
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:13,399
Speaker 2: All right? All right, all right, so here's he's always okay,

498
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,640
Speaker 2: all right, well he is online. So this is gonna

499
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 2: be a we didn't plan this, We didn't plan this. Well,

500
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,440
Speaker 2: Lucky Tony, you're you'd like to get into the octagon

501
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 2: with blind Scott?

502
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,680
Speaker 1: Is that correct? Yes, you're nodding your head, yes, over there. Okay.

503
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 1: So the verbal Octagon, if you're new to the show,

504
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:29,800
Speaker 1: is three.

505
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:34,160
Speaker 2: Rounds of verbal sparring and they go back and forth. Now,

506
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 2: the problem I have with this is Lucky Tony can't

507
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 2: go more than ten seconds without cursing, and if you curse,

508
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,919
Speaker 2: you lose points, and if you curse twice you're disqualified,

509
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:45,399
Speaker 2: you lose.

510
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 1: So I'm a concern about that. But if everyone wants

511
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,439
Speaker 1: does anyone say no to this octagon? Does anyone say no?

512
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 1: Any objections?

513
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 10: I mean, I don't think it'll last very long.

514
00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:59,440
Speaker 1: But okay, all right.

515
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 8: Well listen ready on the jump button.

516
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 1: Okay, all right?

517
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 2: Uh, And the issue here, Lucky Tony is you do

518
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 2: not like blind Scott.

519
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:09,399
Speaker 1: Is that correct? You have an issue with blind Scott?

520
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 1: Would that be accurate?

521
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:13,920
Speaker 9: Said man? I'm just I'm just here to punch.

522
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,680
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, I got you. Hold on and put

523
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 1: him on.

524
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 2: Let's see if Scott's blind Scott, are you accepting or

525
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:26,320
Speaker 2: declining the challenge of Lucky Tony in New yor call give.

526
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 6: Me a couple of seconds, or this is good radio.

527
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:30,760
Speaker 6: This guy's a piece of crap. He swears he eats

528
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,119
Speaker 6: my radio. Time out, Tony, I gotta tell you something.

529
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,879
Speaker 1: But no, no, no, we haven't started, Scott.

530
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 2: We have not started yet. We have not started yet. Okay,

531
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 2: all right, all right, let's uh why don't we here.

532
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 2: Here's the way we're gonna do this on the fly.

533
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 2: You listen to our live coverage. We're gonna workshop this.

534
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 2: We're gonna do this right now in real time. So

535
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 2: we've got Lucky Tony. I normally do this big introduction.

536
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:54,480
Speaker 2: We're not gonna do the big introduction because this just

537
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 2: popped up.

538
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 1: On my radar. So we'll just announce the verbal octagon, which.

539
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 2: If you're you've never heard, it's three rounds of just

540
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 2: insults and you gotta keep it clean and all that,

541
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 2: which is always an issue here. We do these semi regularly,

542
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 2: although we've gone a long time at times without out

543
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 2: doing them. There's three rounds, so the opening round the

544
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 2: way this is gonna work. The opening round is only

545
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 2: ten seconds, which seems like no amount of time, but

546
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 2: trust me, it's often too long. And then we'll go

547
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 2: back and forth. Round two is twenty seconds. Round three

548
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 2: is the bloody knuckles yapping, and we're gonna limit that

549
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 2: to twenty five seconds if we even make it to

550
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 2: round three.

551
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,640
Speaker 1: So, gentlemen, we're gonna do this right now. Do we

552
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 1: have a bell here?

553
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 2: Do we have the boxing bell ready to signal the

554
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 2: start of this battle?

555
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 1: Royalty boxing bell?

556
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 11: Are gone?

557
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 1: Wow? I know this is the boxing bell. This is

558
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 1: boxing range, this is verbal boxing. It is the sweet science.

559
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 2: And we will go to the judges court card you'll

560
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 2: be able to vote on this. We'll have the vote

561
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 2: of the people, the vote of the people on X.

562
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 2: So again, three rounds, gentlemen, I've just given you your

563
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 2: instructions in this talk o rama again.

564
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 1: We must have a clean fight.

565
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 2: If we have to dump you, and we have to

566
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 2: do it multiple times, you will immediately be disqualified. We

567
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 2: will stop about and the other person will be declared

568
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 2: the winner. And that's just the way it goes. We

569
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 2: know what you can and can't say. Gentlemen, good luck,

570
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 2: protect yourself at all times. We're gonna put ten seconds

Speaker 2: down and we'll slice it and dice it and all

651
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:02,360
Speaker 2: that good stuff.

652
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well, it's what's the who am I?

655
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:11,640
Speaker 2: So my birth name is Denniston. I am known by

656
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,520
Speaker 2: my nickname. I am one of the more well known

657
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 2: NFL players. My pregame ritual involves Mountain dew and Chicken Alfredo.

658
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 1: Before most games.

659
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:24,680
Speaker 2: And most of my career, I have been on bad

660
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 2: football teams. In fact, I just recently had my first

661
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 2: winning season in my eleven year career. That goes all

662
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:33,520
Speaker 2: the way back to college, where my teams have almost

663
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:34,439
Speaker 2: always been bad.

Speaker 2: and we'll go to the judges' scorecards.

699
00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 1: I will go first.

700
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:29,240
Speaker 2: I thought round one. I gave Round one to Tony.

701
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 2: I thought he obviously knew what he wanted to do.

702
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:35,239
Speaker 2: Scott was pretty much blindsided on this. I thought Round

703
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:39,120
Speaker 2: one Tony was prepared, he had some material. They were

704
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 2: obviously scripted lines. I thought they were pretty good personal

705
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 2: assault lines. Scott seemed a little flustered.

706
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:48,720
Speaker 1: In round one, as you would expect.

707
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 2: I think he repeated some of the material that if

708
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:53,480
Speaker 2: I wrote down my notes right, I think it was

709
00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:56,960
Speaker 2: round one he repeated some of the lines there from Tony.

710
00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 2: Round two that is where Scott really showed that he

711
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:07,440
Speaker 2: is a maestro in the octagon. It was a personal assault,

712
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:10,200
Speaker 2: It was vicious, It was below the belt. It was

713
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:15,800
Speaker 2: just Scott throwing haymakers and mollywop. It just mollywopped Tony.

714
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:21,279
Speaker 2: Tony was staggered. Tony was staggered on my scorecard. So

715
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 2: round one I gave to Tony ten nine. Round two

716
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:31,279
Speaker 2: I gave to Scott ten nine. I thought Scott really

717
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 2: nailed it and didn't prepare and they just went below

718
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 2: the belt and nasty and all that stuff. Now round three,

719
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 2: so going in a round three it was dead even

720
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:46,840
Speaker 2: and then one of the greatest rounds in verbal octagon

721
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:51,279
Speaker 2: history that will never ever be matched if somebody can

722
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 2: try to.

723
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:53,279
Speaker 1: Do it again, but it will never reach the same level.

724
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 2: Where lucky Tony decided that he would just not allow

725
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 2: scott voice to be heard by saying I believe he

726
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:07,279
Speaker 2: said Jigawatt over he was singing.

727
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:10,279
Speaker 1: Like the word yes, and initially I was worried. I

728
00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:11,200
Speaker 1: didn't know what that meant.

729
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 2: I thought, well, maybe that's something we shouldn't have on

730
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 2: the ringo, according to the Internet, is from Back to

731
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 2: the Future, part two, so I didn't. I don't remember

732
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 2: back to I remember Back to the Future the originally

733
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:21,600
Speaker 2: I saw it back to the Future too, but I

734
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 2: don't remember. So anyway, I thought that was a ten

735
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:27,439
Speaker 2: eight round. So I give the wind to a lucky Tony.

736
00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:29,480
Speaker 2: What about you, Lorraina, how did you see the fight?

737
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:29,839
Speaker 1: Quickly?

738
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:31,400
Speaker 8: Well, you know, I'm not as good as you at

739
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 8: uh grading this, but that's fine.

740
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:34,480
Speaker 1: That's fine.

741
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 8: Lucky Tony. I could tell he was premeditated. He was

742
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:38,960
Speaker 8: sitting there all day, like, what am I going to

743
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:41,760
Speaker 8: say in this verbal octagon that I am pre planning?

744
00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:42,640
Speaker 8: He did great.

745
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 11: I loved it.

746
00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:45,759
Speaker 2: I thought he was you know, so you give the

747
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,960
Speaker 2: wind to Tony well kind of kindness?

748
00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 11: Yes, all right?

749
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:53,560
Speaker 8: That was technically technically asked Tony one for me.

750
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:55,839
Speaker 1: Okay, Coop, how did you see the fight here? Cooper?

751
00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:57,719
Speaker 1: I feel like you looked at my notes.

752
00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:00,359
Speaker 10: It was almost exactly what I was going to to say.

753
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:01,080
Speaker 5: Uh.

754
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:03,960
Speaker 10: Tony was obviously the one that called for this fight,

755
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:06,439
Speaker 10: so he was ready in the first round. Scott wasn't.

756
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 10: But then, like you said, I thought, second round, Scott,

757
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:11,719
Speaker 10: you know, came through and did what Scott does.

758
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:13,600
Speaker 1: Killed it. He killed it, he did.

759
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:16,520
Speaker 10: But then the last round I couldn't hear Scott. I

760
00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 10: could only hear Tony. So we got to give it

761
00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:18,520
Speaker 10: to Tony.

762
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:22,160
Speaker 2: All right, So we have given the vote to lucky Tony.

763
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:24,280
Speaker 2: If you would like to vote the vote of the people.

764
00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:28,359
Speaker 2: A lot of people love Tony singing Oho Texho says,

765
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:29,880
Speaker 2: I got to give the edge to Lucky Tony for

766
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 2: successfully drowning Scott's voice with the he said the jigabt

767
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,239
Speaker 2: chan or whatever it was. JJ from Wrentt and says,

768
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,320
Speaker 2: oh my goodness, Ben, we need to do this segment

769
00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:40,800
Speaker 2: more often. You should have seen how my co workers

770
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:46,120
Speaker 2: were looking at me laughing so loudly, and just Josh says, hey, hey, ho,

771
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 2: jiggle what.

772
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:49,359
Speaker 1: Yeah.

773
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:49,680
Speaker 6: It was.

774
00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 1: Great.

775
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,359
Speaker 2: It was once I got past the thought that maybe

776
00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:57,080
Speaker 2: we had screwed this up. But anyway, all right, so

777
00:40:57,480 --> 00:40:59,399
Speaker 2: you can vote. You can vote real quick to who

778
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:02,759
Speaker 2: am I game? My birth name is Denniston. I'm known

779
00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:05,279
Speaker 2: for by my nickname. I played in the NFL for

780
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:08,239
Speaker 2: a number of years. My pregame ritual involves Mountain dew

781
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:11,719
Speaker 2: and Chicken Alfredo to get fired up for games. I

782
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:13,800
Speaker 2: have mostly been on bad teams. I just had my

783
00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:18,640
