Oh, you gotta get 19 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,559 Speaker 1: Devil's perch, Devil's perch. Whenever you could get the spot 20 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 1: in the bar where you're on the corner where you 21 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 1: have your own little world, and you could see everything out. 22 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: No one's behind you, but you could see everything, and 23 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 1: you've got easy access to the bartender and most importantly 24 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 1: of all, devil's perch. That's where you are right now. 25 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 1: Do you have beer in here? We actually do, But 26 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: Sydney has some behind the I mean it's been there, 27 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:44,679 Speaker 1: some beer, new money. Why has that beer been in 28 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: the fridge for two years? Sydney. They're like pounders. It's 29 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 1: been here longer than I have. So I say we 30 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 1: drink those after the title games. Uh. This season, I've 31 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: ranked the best Devil's purchase. Okay, well, Lost and Found 32 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: is number two. Huckfos has the best Devil's purchase, all right, 33 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: that's fair. More from l a standpoint, I'm gonna put 34 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:10,799 Speaker 1: um the cozy number one. Yeah, upset because it's the 35 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 1: jukebox there. And you know that little corner, Yeah, that 36 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: little corner Lost and Found has the gross popcorn machine 37 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: and the juke box. Well also, you know, I've not 38 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 1: been to Lost and Found in a while, but but 39 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,360 Speaker 1: the recent times that I went there was there was 40 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: a duo that they own the devil's perch and no 41 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: one else is allowed to sit there. It's that kind 42 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 1: of a bar. So they're falling down the rankings. That's 43 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,239 Speaker 1: you can't take away devil's perch from the people. Uh. 44 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: Today's Around the NFL podcast, the Tuesday edition, sponsored of 45 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: course by Mr Flames, economics class in the Hague, the Netherlands. 46 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: Just a note, it is his birthday today. Birthday to 47 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: Mr fo Love. Mr f what a Man also contributed 48 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 1: heavily to New Money's uh windfall money money, So why 49 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:09,119 Speaker 1: the beer's freshly stocked back there? There's been a sort 50 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 1: of a cold new richness to Sydney since she got 51 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: the money. She's not quite the sweet, you know, naive 52 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: young friend of ours anymore. She's a world weary. She 53 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 1: only travels with one of those pure bread great Danes 54 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: now and um, she wears sunglasses at all times. She 55 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 1: valets her car now. I think a great Dane would 56 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 1: take me for a walk. It's probably about the size 57 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: of me. Today's show, the Monday Night Recap, a Monday 58 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 1: night football game between the Green Bay Packers and Philadelphia Eagles, 59 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: will start there. We have some news to hit, not 60 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: a lot, but a couple of items that we should 61 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: touch on. Um, we will, Oh, we haven't done this 62 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: in a while. There is you know, we're we're we've 63 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: hit the home stretch. When Week thirteen begins, it will 64 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: be December one. So how about a little what's more likely? Uh, 65 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: focusing on the anger of the two thousand sixteen regular season, 66 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: and then we'll hit the Thursday night preview, which is 67 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: a game between Greg What come on, you gotta know 68 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: the Thursday night it's Tuesday, the Minnesota Vikings, a team 69 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 1: of a t L. I'm just getting you in the mix. 70 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: I know the game coys, Yes, the Cowboys and Vikings. 71 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 1: So how exciting. Colleen's here for it all. Uh, let's 72 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 1: start with a little Monday night football. Yes, the Green 73 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:52,920 Speaker 1: Bay Packers with their backs against the wall on the road, uh, 74 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 1: infilt Philadelphia. They needed this win to kind of stay 75 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: in the mix in the NFC South, and they got 76 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 1: the NFC North, and they got it done in a 77 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: big way. There's only their second road win of the year, 78 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 1: a seven thirteen victory for the Packers, and a victory 79 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: in many ways that you could attribute directly to Number twelve. 80 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: Behind center had an incredible ball game. Here is one 81 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: of my favorite throws of the season. Here's the call. 82 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: Chapter Rogers back pedals, locks the lot side of the 83 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 1: ends one for dvat Diandams makes the catch backlide of 84 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 1: the adamside. Touch stuff. Hey sense says, you know, throw 85 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 1: and catch to beat Nolan Carrol West. Only one quarterback 86 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 1: and football can make that pass. In my opinion, Aaron 87 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: Rodgers looks like Aaron Rodgers and that keeps the Packers relevant. 88 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: I thought this was, along with the Falcons game a 89 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: few weeks ago, his best performance in September of last season, 90 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 1: and it started from the opening whistle. The Packers controlled 91 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: a game that a lot of people expected them to lose. 92 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,799 Speaker 1: Rogers looked great, Davante Adams has been coming on, Jordy 93 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 1: Nelson playing much better, and they didn't have much of 94 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: a run game again, but as well as Rogers played 95 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 1: and the defense didn't embarrass itself, I have to feel 96 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 1: a little bit better about the Packers chances in that 97 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: division right now. Well, this was there, must this was 98 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 1: their last stand. They go four and seven, three games 99 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: back there, they're done, and they go out there and 100 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 1: they play their best game of the season, and I know, Mark, 101 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: you kind of wanted this Packers team to die and 102 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 1: and go away, and yet I still have I still 103 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: have a feeling this team is gonna be right there 104 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,359 Speaker 1: in week seventeen playing for the playoff spot. I'd be 105 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: surprised if they're not. I mean, watching it, and I 106 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: couldn't agree with you more. It was vintage Aaron Rodgers. 107 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: That was shotgun out of a two year old film reel. 108 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: He looked fantastic, and you know, the defense, which has 109 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: been such an issue on the road, put up a 110 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:51,039 Speaker 1: good show. I'm concerned. I think all primetime games get more. 111 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: More is drawn and assumed from a primetime game than 112 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 1: like if it were lost on a Sunday. That annoys 113 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: me always. But at the same time, that was a 114 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,599 Speaker 1: statement win by the Packers saying we're not done yet. 115 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: Sorry Mark, Cessler, sorry everyone else who wants this team 116 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 1: out of here. Well, I'm really glad that the Packers 117 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: could get themselves right again against the Eagles at home 118 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: in prime time. It was really nice. It was really 119 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: nice to watch. I was watching at home last night 120 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 1: and I was yelling at the TV and John was like, 121 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: are you caring right now? And I was like, yes, 122 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: I care. Because the Eagles defense at home had been 123 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: really good before the Packers, the wheels were falling off. 124 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: I thought maybe this would be the game that the 125 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: Eagles could step up. But the offense they were playing 126 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: with the skeleton crew. They had three rookies on the 127 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: offensive line. Then they had to bench Nelson Aghaloor because 128 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on with him. He has 129 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: the yips or something or whatever. They have to bench him. 130 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: Then Jordan Matthews gets hurt, Ryan Matthews is out, They're 131 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 1: playing with Darren Sprawls. It's a mess. Can that version 132 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: of the Eagles offense legitimize any defense, much less the 133 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: Packers defense, which had been the worst in the NFL? 134 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: Over the page, it gives them a chance because they 135 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: don't have a line, and they don't have receivers, and 136 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: they have a rookie cord back who's not going to 137 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: be able to overcome those sort of struggles. This was 138 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: the best past rush we've seen from the Packers in 139 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: a long time, and I think that's attributable to the opponent. 140 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: But then you look at the teams they struggled against. 141 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:14,239 Speaker 1: It was a lot of good offensive lines, and coming 142 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: up their schedule sets up pretty well for them, whereas 143 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: your Eagles, I felt like that was kind of the 144 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: Eagles last stand two. That was this is one of 145 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: those games, right we were which what type of game? 146 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: Which I didn't know that they go I would fork 147 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: him if we were still doing the fork. This is 148 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 1: something College and tweeted in the middle of the game, 149 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: which I appreciated. Um, even though it was, you know, 150 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: existential angst. I can't be without Twitter, but it's ruining 151 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 1: everything I love. I just want everything to go back 152 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: to the way it used to be. So I totally 153 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: agree with that. Well, I was like, that really could 154 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:56,319 Speaker 1: have been a mark as to the Eagles and and everyone. 155 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: I was guessing the Eagles and Trump a little bit 156 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,559 Speaker 1: at the same time. All of that. Yes, but we 157 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 1: cut the cord. We don't have cable, and so every 158 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: single live stream of the games, but no, every single 159 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 1: stream is delayed. So when I'm on tweet deck or 160 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: I'm looking at Twitter, everything is spoiled. We're like a 161 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: minute and a half behind you, and uh, you and 162 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: West should have wine and cheese parties. He's told us 163 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: he doesn't watch TV about five thousand times I watched TV. 164 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 1: Also clarified, it has nothing to do with being too 165 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,959 Speaker 1: cool for TV. I am too cheap to pay the 166 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 1: going rate for whatever they want to charge for a 167 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: service like cable or direct TV. Well, I'm going to 168 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 1: get cable today after last. Yeah, I'm done. That was 169 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: the breaking point. But you're going the other direction. You 170 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,440 Speaker 1: gotta watch did you watch? You watch watch ESPN on 171 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 1: the app. Let's let's carve out more time to you know, 172 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,559 Speaker 1: promote an absolute competitors mobile. Can we can we clip 173 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 1: off Colleen vouching for cable and see if you can 174 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 1: get a sponsor have finders. Yeah, like, I'm going back 175 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 1: people anyway, here's the rest of the schedule. Yeah, the 176 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: Eagles are done, see you later, Better luck next year. 177 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: Sorry calling the Packers though, sets up pretty well home 178 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,319 Speaker 1: against the Texans, And you gotta like that matchup rock 179 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: Oswiller on the road. You like that matchup, Packers defense, Seahawks, 180 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 1: tough game at Bears home against Vikings. You gotta like 181 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 1: your chances at home again at Lions. Now? Are those 182 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 1: Are they the overwhelming favorites in all those games? No? 183 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: But I think they're I think they're gonna sniff nine 184 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: wins and that might get the job done. Let's compare 185 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 1: that to what the Lions have left, which is much 186 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: more difficult. At STS tough game home versus the Bears, 187 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: give him a win. The Bears are starting Matt Barkley. 188 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: Whatever at Giants, toss up at Cowboys versus Packers. Well, 189 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: the Packers have to be thrilled. They're playing the Vikings 190 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: and Lions, two teams that they already have wins. Actually, no, 191 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 1: the Vikings won the first time. You want to have 192 00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 1: the win in the pocket against the Train and you 193 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 1: want to be playing Minnesota, who knows if they're going 194 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: to be behind. You want to be able to control 195 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: and play Detroit and mince final two games. I have 196 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: future breaking news, breaking news from the future. The Sunday 197 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 1: night game in week seventeen will be green Bay at 198 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: Detroit for the NFC North. Breaking news from the future. 199 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: It's that's it's happened that way. It's happened that way 200 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 1: a few times, right. Packers Bears had a Sunday night 201 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: to decide and Packers Vikings had a Sunday night to decide. 202 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 1: It steth Packers Bears the game that Rogers came back 203 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: from the color boon at and had touchdown to Randall. 204 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: Cop was one potential, one potential roadblock for your television 205 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: scenario there. The Redskins and Giants play on January one 206 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 1: as well. There's some good ones. That's some massive ratings 207 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: coming at you. The Redskins, they might have, you know, 208 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: one of them wins the division, the other ones. The 209 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 1: wild cards scenario could be cooking there. In my opinion, 210 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: we'll see nobody's winning the division except the Cowboys. Oh yeah, 211 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: that's right, Well we're talking, but it could be a 212 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 1: winner gets into the playoffs, loser sits home. And how 213 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: did you feel about the tent situation? Thought the tent 214 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:09,440 Speaker 1: situation was interesting? What took so you have this tent 215 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: on the sideline? Aaron Roder inside the tent. It turned 216 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 1: out he had slightly strained his hamstring and they taped 217 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 1: him up. What took so long for people to get 218 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:21,079 Speaker 1: the tent going on? And why doesn't have like eighteen 219 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 1: of him on the side It back to the locker room. 220 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,679 Speaker 1: I believe the packers have done it for years and years. 221 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: They remember reference. I get it's been under people's radar, 222 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 1: but remember r G three in the red shed. That 223 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 1: was like the game where he hurt himself and Shanahan 224 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: had him in and out of the shed. That well, 225 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 1: the one the other. The other thing that made me 226 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 1: feel a little strange about the tent was that one 227 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: of the center for the packers had um guessed that 228 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 1: he had gone there to go number one, and Lisa's 229 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: falter said it on you're breaking down what number one, 230 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 1: which which means I don't know, maybe overseas listeners they 231 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 1: don't do into two. I don't know, but they do 232 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 1: and they yeah, it's not the names, you know, just 233 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: but that means that people go on that tent to pee. 234 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: And if you're going in there to get taped up 235 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: for five minutes, it can't be a pleasant scene in there, right. 236 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 1: He was followed in by somebody, so that's what kind 237 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 1: of caught me off guard. If he was going in. 238 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: I don't think people go in there to pee. I 239 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 1: think he was having a little fun. I think people do. 240 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: I think people are peeing in the tent. I think 241 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: people just YEA. Well, it's an odd request to tell 242 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: fifty three young peoples players players, three people to go 243 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 1: three or four hours without going in the bathroom. The 244 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 1: ted rais is a good point, though, what if his 245 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: hamstring is injured? Everyone kind of looked past that. Okay, 246 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 1: finished the game, it's cold weather. He fought through it. 247 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 1: He was limited after that. He did not move around 248 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,959 Speaker 1: as well. That's that's something to watch because he was electric. 249 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: I think he's played really well for a month now. 250 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 1: But if he's not a hundred percent Aaron Rodgers, they 251 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: don't have any margin for error. They're counting on him 252 00:13:58,040 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 1: to play like an m v P for any chance 253 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,199 Speaker 1: to rip off these games. And Colleen, lastly, any thoughts 254 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: about the Eagles trolling the Packers by putting fourth and 255 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 1: twenty six on the scoreboard before the game, referencing the 256 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,320 Speaker 1: two thousand three playoff game. Little motivation for the Packers. 257 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: You don't want to go down that road with that stuff, 258 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: you don't. I loved it, but it obviously did not 259 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: turn out okay, But it was Freddie Mitchell's birthday, so nice. 260 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: You just hope he has a computer in the clink. Yes, 261 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 1: where's Freddie Mitchell for you? On your like hierarchy or 262 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 1: your stable of boys? You know all time Eagles legends. 263 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't he's not really in the stable, 264 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: but he's sort of on the property. Just one of 265 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 1: the few players that Bill Belichick publicly lambasted, said that 266 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 1: he's a bad player that when he sees him on 267 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 1: the field, he gets excited. I mean it's a good thing. 268 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: Remember that Freda had talked garbage about the path secondary 269 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: before that Super Bowl. Anyway, that's Monday night football. Let's 270 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 1: do some news. Everyone's getting on anybody? Nobody know that. 271 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: It sounds like one of those videos where they try 272 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 1: to sync up what the players are really saying with 273 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 1: what they I don't know what that was. Kirk Cousins 274 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: on the sidelines of the Packers game. Kirk Cousins, Well, 275 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 1: he's a little bit of a goop, but he's a 276 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 1: lovable goop. Yeah, I got you. Let's start with an 277 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: NFC playoff contender, the Atlanta Falcons, who are dealing with 278 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: some health woes right now. On their defense. Doctors confirmed 279 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 1: that the pectorial injury suffered by Desmond true font Um 280 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 1: require surgery, and the Falcons announced Tuesday that they've placed 281 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl cornerback on injured reserve. It's over for him. 282 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: And there was more stuff falling in on Tuesday, falling 283 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: against the Falcons. The Falcons will also lose defensive end 284 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: Adrian Clayborne for three to five weeks as he undergoes 285 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: surgery to trim a partial partially torn meniscus rap sheet 286 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 1: reported and Chris Wesley. So you figure he's out until 287 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: the playoffs and most likely maybe he gets back by 288 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: the very end of the regular season. But these are 289 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: two big um losses for a team that's not loaded 290 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 1: at defense. Two of their top four or five defensive players. 291 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 1: I would say Truffont was a Pro bowler last year, 292 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 1: one of the top ten cornerbacks in the NFL. Then again, 293 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: they have enough offensive firepower to win these games in 294 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 1: the regular season. They're already playing with the worst past 295 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 1: defense in the NFL. Right, but that that lowers there 296 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: seeing you don't want to go through the playoffs needed 297 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: to score fifty points. Oh, I think it's a huge 298 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 1: but not for the regular Right. They remind me a 299 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: little bit of the Cardinals teams with with Kurt Warner 300 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: who did make one run and they kind of went 301 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: into each playoffs. They're Dome team knowing that you got 302 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 1: to score forty points each game. I I you know, 303 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 1: at the command of some people downstairs, wrote an NFC 304 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: playoff picture a banker. Well, no it was not, and 305 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 1: I'm not going to call it that. It was a 306 00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: block and tackle publication and butt NFL dot pitch. Yeah, 307 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: I really sold it. But it's the Falcons I talked 308 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 1: about as the NFC's secret weapon. Not that everyone says 309 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: the Seahawks can derail Dallas. It's the Falcons that I 310 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: thought could potentially. But you know, I need to go 311 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 1: rechange all that because if you can't, their offense can 312 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 1: score points. But their defense, which shaped up a little bit, 313 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: I would I'd struggle to see them going through the 314 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,239 Speaker 1: NFC playoffs and not getting waxed at some point with 315 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 1: their defense. It worries me because look at the Saints 316 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: and their defense is terrible, and their offense has a 317 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,479 Speaker 1: ton of firepower, and it's not like bleedy Ray Wilson 318 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: is going to come in and help. Here's their schedule. 319 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: They've got the Chiefs. This is why they can get 320 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: They gotta win the division and they're going to barring 321 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: something crazy out of Tampa Bay. But you've got the Chiefs, 322 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 1: the Rams, the forty Niners, the Panthers, and the Saints. 323 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: A lot of those teams look better to us in 324 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:52,640 Speaker 1: terms of reputation than what they really are. This team 325 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 1: can play with anyone. Yeah, I can play with the Cowboys. 326 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 1: That's why I put them in as that secret weapon, 327 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 1: because they can hang with that. That that is a 328 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 1: tough matchup, I think for Dallas, because I if that, 329 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,640 Speaker 1: if that happened in the playoffs, Atlanta like going to Seattle, 330 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: going outdoors in the weather. I just already did that 331 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 1: and almost that's fair. It wasn't as good, and I 332 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: think Seattle is gonna be a better team then. But 333 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 1: you can see them going to Dallas and just getting 334 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:18,919 Speaker 1: in to shootout that comes. I would not want to 335 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,360 Speaker 1: play down in the last quarter. Let's move on some 336 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 1: A lot of trouble right now around the Rams, who 337 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,159 Speaker 1: are losing games and a lot of you know, not 338 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:30,680 Speaker 1: a lot of flattering pieces being written about Jeff Fisher, 339 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 1: whose contract expires at the end of the season, and 340 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: now they have an issue with the most famous or 341 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 1: greatest Ram in history, arguably Eric Dickerson Um, who told 342 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:44,640 Speaker 1: ESPN on Monday that Rams coach Jeff Fisher uh told 343 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 1: Dickerson he didn't want him on the sideline during games 344 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 1: because some public comments he's made Dickerson have made players 345 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 1: on the Rams quote uncomfortable. Uh. Dickerson also had this 346 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: to say, I won't be at the coliseum as long 347 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 1: as Fisher is coaching. I'm a man of my word 348 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 1: and if I tell you something, I'm going to do 349 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 1: it now. On the RAM side of this, Kevin dem Off, 350 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 1: who I believe is there CEO president president um tweeted 351 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: out that this was a miscommunication and they're trying to 352 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:18,120 Speaker 1: uh reach out to Eric Dickerson to try to clear 353 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: things up, and uh, you know, Jeff Fisher kind of 354 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 1: stepped back and said that wasn't the case. How Dickerson 355 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: paint did it. But either way, Mark Sessler not a 356 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,200 Speaker 1: good look for the Rams, especially as they're trying to 357 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 1: get a foothold here in l A. Yeah, but in 358 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 1: my initial response, that did not take long because we 359 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 1: knew that the second season for the Rams was where 360 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:37,479 Speaker 1: a lot of the issues could come when the the 361 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 1: shine is off. The idea of them returning to Los Angeles, 362 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 1: it was. It was a few months ago, right before 363 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,640 Speaker 1: the season, when we were sent down to a hotel 364 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,399 Speaker 1: right side of outside of L a for what was 365 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,360 Speaker 1: essentially a Jeff Fisher meets his team to tell them 366 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 1: how to get ready, how to move to l A, 367 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 1: how to deal with it. And Dickerson was there and 368 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 1: treated like a national hero. I mean it was the 369 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: figurehead in the most important player in Rams history arguably. 370 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 1: And it's November. And this is what happens to bad 371 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: teams when they're alumni critique the current state of the team. 372 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 1: They often don't take it well. You see it with 373 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: the Browns. You see with a lot of other teams 374 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: where you've got issues with with what we're heroic players 375 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 1: now starting to you know they're being honest about the 376 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: way the Rams are playing. Well, they can't be that 377 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 1: sensitive about it. This is this is a huge figure 378 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,719 Speaker 1: in that organization just in terms of a historic standpoint too, 379 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 1: and in the NFL, and it's like, come on the 380 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 1: way that you're performing. You are a team out there. 381 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: You can't just like crumble when somebody says something. Right. 382 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 1: But but as Dan would say, I gotta say, come 383 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,719 Speaker 1: back to us, Eric Dickerson. They offered him, they say, 384 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:46,880 Speaker 1: they say, you can go sit in your luxury suite 385 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,400 Speaker 1: with your friends. He's asking for sideline passes for your 386 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:53,200 Speaker 1: friends and the guy's burying assistance and players on the team, 387 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 1: they're like, hey, how about you go sit in the 388 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 1: luxury see Derek Dickerson. It's like, I don't feel like 389 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,399 Speaker 1: I don't think either side particularly looks good. But it's 390 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,679 Speaker 1: fair to put point out both sides look stupid. That 391 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: a guy's whining and moaning. Just say, I think to 392 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:13,160 Speaker 1: the average person, the Rams look small here, right. I'm 393 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 1: not saying that Tson is is what they think he is. 394 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: Necessarily I'm not. I don't know Eric Dickerson, but the 395 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 1: Rams come out looking small. And here here's what all 396 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 1: you need to know about Eric Dickerson. This is what 397 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: he says. He told the Rams coach. You can go 398 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 1: any place else. You can go back to Tennessee and 399 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 1: go to Cleveland, you can go to s C. I'm 400 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 1: gonna be still. I'm gonna be Eric Dickerson of the 401 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 1: Los Angeles Rams. That's why I wear that gold jacket. 402 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 1: I have the right to say whatever I want to say. 403 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 1: All this little sounds delightful, yea, oh god, yeah. The 404 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: paramore is a huge Rams fan. Oh famous. We talked 405 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: about this last night. She could not be more embarrassed 406 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 1: for the organization. It's embarrassed and also pointed out kind 407 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 1: of what Greg was. Greg didn't really say this, but 408 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:58,400 Speaker 1: she's of the opinion that Eric Dickerson is is desperate 409 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:01,880 Speaker 1: to remain relevant in lass. She wouldn't be the first 410 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 1: person to but she wouldn't be the first person accused 411 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 1: him of that over years. It's a tricky situation for 412 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 1: teams that have a legendary player that wants to remain 413 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 1: in the limelight or gets calls from reporters. The Jets 414 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 1: have had this issue with Joe Namath, the Browns have 415 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,880 Speaker 1: had it with Jim Brown. Eric Dickerson in the Rams. 416 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: I'm sure there are other examples. They speak and then 417 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 1: it gets reported everywhere because it's a big name, there's 418 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 1: a platform, and then it gets into the echo chamber, 419 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:31,719 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, it's everywhere, and the 420 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 1: team is probably like, wait a second, whoever ex legend is, 421 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 1: we take care of you better than anybody else in 422 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: our organization, and we're not asking you to kind of 423 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,639 Speaker 1: be on our dime and and and speak possibly, but 424 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:43,640 Speaker 1: we don't want you to be destroying us either well, 425 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: and not to go back to the Rams again. But 426 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 1: the Browns had with Bernie Kozar, who was fired as 427 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 1: a preseason analysts because he ripped who the Rams receivers 428 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: and who responded crazily about it, Jeff Fisher. So Jeff 429 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 1: Fisher might be a little sensitive, little touchy jef uh 430 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: Finally in the news, I thought this was an interesting nugget. 431 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: We didn't talk about this in our our pre show talk. 432 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 1: But because whenever you wanna, you know, touching on the 433 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 1: throne of sleeves. You know, Tim Tebow, this is way 434 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 1: back two thousand fourteen. You have to bring it up 435 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 1: before the show because we all would have shot at 436 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 1: this islets thank you mark hashtag cancel the Patriots safe football. 437 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 1: Tim Tebow had signed with the Patriots in two thousand fourteen, 438 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,399 Speaker 1: got offered one million dollars for a one day shoot 439 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: for a commercial, and he wanted to run it by 440 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: Bill and Bill, I just want to make sure this 441 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: is okay with you, Bill said, and I quote Timmy, 442 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 1: I would really appreciate it if you didn't. Tim Tebow 443 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 1: turned out a million dollars for one day of work, 444 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: and then the Patriots cut Tim Tebow shortly. Thereat you know, 445 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 1: I just feel like you should. I just want to say, 446 00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,400 Speaker 1: that's a news item. That's all supposed to rel Sorry 447 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: for a millionaire football player, you can get to make 448 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 1: another million every minute he tried to play pro football. 449 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 1: He was passing up money because he could have made 450 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: a lot more money making this, like he is now 451 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 1: making speeches and being in the media. I mean, he 452 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,719 Speaker 1: had his public appearance fees, all of that sort of stuff. 453 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 1: You know, give me a break, don't ask for pres'll 454 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 1: come after me.

And do you 457 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 1: know what, it's not Bill Belichick. It's not like Bill 458 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 1: Belichick once he said, don't do that because he was 459 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,639 Speaker 1: trying to avoid the circus. Now I have to I 460 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: could keep you on the team, like I owe that 461 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 1: to you.

How micro their 463 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 1: viewpoint is on things that instead of letting him do 464 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,880 Speaker 1: that that silly, stupid commercial that no one would ever 465 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 1: paid attention to, he was like, I don't want you 466 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,399 Speaker 1: to do that. Commercial because he thinks in such a 467 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 1: tunnel vision way about his team let him do the 468 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 1: stupid commercial. No one would even known about it. Do 469 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 1: we know what the commercial was for. We'll never know. 470 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,479 Speaker 1: Maybe he was dressed up. Maybe he was dressed up 471 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 1: as Bill Belichick in the commercial. That awesome. Maybe there. 472 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:15,360 Speaker 1: It did come out of Tebow's upcoming books shake Mark 473 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,960 Speaker 1: Sessler has agreed to purchase, read and give a detailed 474 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: report negative long form on it dot com.

Um, 481 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 1: that's what's happening in the news. I wasn't a slaughter 482 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 1: job of Bill, but I just thought it was kind 483 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:52,399 Speaker 1: of interesting. It was topical. I think, really the bigger 484 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 1: crime is a young person with nothing to offer the 485 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 1: world in terms of wisdom writing books, much bigger crime 486 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 1: than Bellichick. That's what's happening in the news. Before we 487 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 1: move on to what's more likely, little I want to 488 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 1: throw a little curveball another one. This is part of 489 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:15,159 Speaker 1: my jobs to keep everybody on their toes, um, and 490 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 1: I want to start here, all right, so we know 491 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 1: we know the Vikings they fell again last Thanksgiving and uh. 492 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 1: This prompted our own Mark Sesler on Sunday Show to 493 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 1: share this tidbit about his takeaway from Thanksgiving. The entire 494 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 1: NFC East deserves the playoffs more than the Phi. The 495 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings right now they are. They had a chance 496 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,919 Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving to rest away that division and they couldn't 497 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 1: get it done. Bye bye. Now you said that, you 498 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: said that three days after I had a very interesting 499 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 1: conversation with my friend Bob Um at Thanksgiving feast, uh, 500 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 1: and he had run something by me that I thought, 501 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: you know, why not get my Bob, my friend Bob 502 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 1: on the line and he could pitch something that he 503 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,399 Speaker 1: pitched to me. And if all I asked for you 504 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 1: from you guys is open ears on what he pitched 505 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 1: to me, which at the very least I found an 506 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:10,359 Speaker 1: industry trying to get out of the team of a 507 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 1: t L. Aren't you listen, my friend Bob, are you 508 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 1: on the line. Yes, Hello, Hey guys, Hey Bob, Bob. 509 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 1: You guys know Bob first time, first time, long time. 510 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 1: A little fun fact. Uh, my friend Bob actually started 511 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:33,119 Speaker 1: the subreddit that is so popular, and I kind of 512 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 1: started it, like I squatted on it because I just 513 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 1: I like read it. So I was like, oh, nobody 514 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 1: has so I got the name and then did nothing 515 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 1: with it. Yeah, so Greedy really is the guy that 516 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 1: he is the hero. I'm like beyond the Winklevoss Twins. 517 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 1: All right, that's there now, Bob. I I don't know 518 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: if you heard Mark's comments from Sunday Show about the Vikings. Um, 519 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 1: bye bye? Yeah he said bye bye? And I if 520 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: you would would you would you just kind of pitch 521 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 1: to the group here, including Connie Fox Colleens with us today. 522 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: Um what you kind of pitched to me during Thanksgiving feast? Yeah? Absolutely, 523 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 1: I mean, guys, I just I feel like we need 524 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 1: to talk about the King's because it's just not working out. 525 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 1: You know, like it was really exciting when it started. 526 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: Like you guys that could hear in your voices you're 527 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: all excited. Uh, you start buy them through some hard times, 528 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 1: but you know you just tell you're not happy, like 529 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 1: none of you are happy with this. It's in your voices. 530 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 1: You guys deserve better. You you know, you only live once. 531 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 1: That's the saying I think. And uh, I just think 532 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 1: that you know you do you? You know, there's no 533 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 1: reason to kind of force yourselves to get excited about 534 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 1: another damaged franchise on the podcast. And that's just when 535 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 1: you gets to be happy, that's all, you know, Bob. 536 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 1: I mean, he's liking it to a relationship. And and 537 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: it is funny that in really fluttering us up here 538 00:28:54,880 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: in retrosp Bob's done that to view time. Yeah, in retrospect, 539 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 1: it is kind of funny that this is the podcast 540 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 1: where there's a Jets fan and a Browns fan, and 541 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: then we went down the road of getting behind a 542 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 1: Vikings team, which is right in that in that top 543 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 1: echelon of like pained franchises, Like what were we asking for? 544 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: And Bob, you're saying, we deserve better? So how do 545 00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 1: how do you think we should rectify that? I don't know, 546 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 1: I mean, I know it's like a foreign concept for 547 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 1: I guess all of you to be single, but um, 548 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 1: I don't know, give it a sigh. Maybe just kind 549 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 1: of break up with the Vikings and spend the rest 550 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: of this year just kind of dating around and seeing 551 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 1: what's out there. Yeah, but it feels safe the Vikings. 552 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 1: It feels it feels just like I'm used to it. 553 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 1: We sit on the couch together and watch Black Mirror 554 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: and sweatpants and eats thanks getting leftovers. It feels Okay. 555 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: I get it's comfortable. It's comfortable. I get it. But 556 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: you know, like I hear when you know, when the 557 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 1: Titans come up like a little there's like a there's yeah, 558 00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 1: either's just kind of like the dress right one that 559 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: got away. I feel the same way about the Chargers. 560 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 1: But you know, we can have an open relationship. You know, 561 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 1: the Vikings don't have to. But I have an agreement 562 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 1: that if I come upon the Titans on a lonely 563 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 1: Friday night, that's my cheat. Open relationships never work. I mean, 564 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 1: we to be right along the party line with what 565 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: Bob suggesting. I threw it out there a couple of 566 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 1: weeks ago that we could at least entertain the concept 567 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 1: of two team of a t l S. Because the 568 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: minute we went with the Vikings, there was this, uh, 569 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 1: you know from certain parties a very present Fisher, like, no, 570 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 1: it should have been the Raiders, or now it's the 571 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: Titans popping up in great and then the Fisher was 572 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 1: their their team falling into us saying yeah, and the 573 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 1: Mike Zimmer murdered all those stuff to animals the way 574 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: that that really started off, They've disappointed beyond comprehension, and 575 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 1: they they probably will disappoint more so I would say this, 576 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: I have an open mind to doing anything with Team 577 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: of a t L. I don't go to bed worried 578 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,479 Speaker 1: about Team of a t L. I mean, I propose 579 00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: the vikings, I made this mistake. Here's a concern. Here's 580 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: the concern I have, And and I don't think it 581 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: was a mistake. Mark, That's what your heart was saying 582 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 1: at the time. Yeah, you guys have grown apart, so 583 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:14,719 Speaker 1: you're proposing a side piece. He's supposing going. I think 584 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 1: I know where you're going without my concerns, because I 585 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 1: don't believe in any of this open relationship stuff that 586 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: always ends terribly for everyone. I think you either stay 587 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: and you work things out, stay together for the kids, 588 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 1: or you break it off and have a fresh start. 589 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 1: But here's my concern. We break it off, of course, 590 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 1: and then the Vikings go hit the gym, and the 591 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,479 Speaker 1: Vikings read some books, and the Vikings start listening to, 592 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 1: you know, some new podcasts, and all of a sudden, 593 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 1: the Vikings are looking pretty good again. They got a 594 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,719 Speaker 1: couple of wins, they're looking kind of sexy. It's kind 595 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 1: of reminding you of the old Vikings and and they're 596 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: not going to take us back. Right. Not only not 597 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 1: only would we have missed the fun part of the journey, 598 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 1: we've been exposing our lack of character for not being 599 00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: loyal to them. That is the worst possible result is 600 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:02,360 Speaker 1: the Vikings going out a tear after we get up 601 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: with them. Break up with them, well, so I want 602 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 1: to avoid that's the only way that can end. But 603 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 1: this time around one caveat, we would all be able 604 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 1: to you know, show after show we could blame Bob. Oh, yeah, 605 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 1: that's true. Can I offer a different point of view? Yeah? Sure? 606 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 1: All along the Vikings were some hideous, toothless contraption that 607 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 1: we were too drunk at two in the morning when 608 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 1: we agreed to go home with them, And now we're 609 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 1: in this awful relationship and we didn't even know that 610 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 1: they were that bad. It's been like two months of 611 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 1: just them being horrible wives to us or husband. I 612 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 1: was like, I was the sober friend as a listener 613 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 1: and as you guys kind of talked yourselves into Sam 614 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 1: Bradford and I was like, don't do it. This is also, 615 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 1: by the way, that never works out. You know who 616 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: the Oakland Raiders are. They're the girl next door that 617 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:52,320 Speaker 1: you should have been with all along now. Absolutely, they're 618 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 1: the vapid, good looking girl next door once he hung 619 00:32:54,760 --> 00:33:00,040 Speaker 1: out with him, the girl next door that's Dankee. This 620 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 1: is the problem still like a flying blow the radar 621 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 1: for the last two decades. Come on, the girl next 622 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 1: door that you can stay up all night with and 623 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: talk things out and then you don't even realize how 624 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,760 Speaker 1: pretty she is. That's the Raiders wandering eyes here. So 625 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 1: I feel like you should cut the relationship off at 626 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 1: this point, Colleen, you've broken many hearts in your past. 627 00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 1: We've talked about um it's not true in Europe. So 628 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: in your opinion, you think it's time to say goodbye. Well, yeah, 629 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 1: I mean all the signs are right in front of us. 630 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 1: We've just talked through them. I don't know if you 631 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:38,560 Speaker 1: can fix this at this point reconcilable. Yeah, can we 632 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 1: have a kid to fix it? No, that's never idea. Quickly, 633 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, Bob, what's the band aid baby? Um 634 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 1: parallel here? Oh man, that's uh. Don't worry about it 635 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 1: because it's a terrible idea. Trying to help us, Sam 636 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 1: Bradford gets injured on Thursday night, Sean Hill comes in 637 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 1: and leads them to the Promised Land. I don't know alright, anyway, 638 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 1: I don't think there's It's tough because you guys jump 639 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 1: from one long term relationship to the next, and you 640 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:15,560 Speaker 1: don't really give yourself that much of what I think 641 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 1: this is. This might be the last team of a 642 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 1: t L ever, so that's also something to keep in mind. 643 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 1: I could keep them, I could keep the Vikings because 644 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 1: I do feel loyal to that decision. But then we 645 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 1: can have wait, we can have well, I said they're 646 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,560 Speaker 1: not gonna gonna make the playoffs, but I don't need that. 647 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,400 Speaker 1: But we can have four team of a t l 648 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 1: s to make this as murky and complicated as possible. No, 649 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: I don't think we should do that. It has to 650 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:40,799 Speaker 1: be unanimous, and I'm sticking with them. Unlike the four 651 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 1: of you. I've been in this wild and wacky dating 652 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:49,920 Speaker 1: world in l A. I can attest that it's not pretty. Yeah, Will, 653 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 1: I think you will love again, Greg, I don't want 654 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,800 Speaker 1: you to be so negative about that. I love the Chargers, 655 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 1: I love the Bucks, but I don't know I want 656 00:34:58,160 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 1: to you love the Bucks again. I can't. I don't 657 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 1: even know.

Oh so you grew up with the whole town? Yeah? Yeah, 684 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:34,399 Speaker 1: that was kind of on the coal side of town, 685 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 1: though I was one on like or in the Precious Metals. 686 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:42,160 Speaker 1: Any other questions, everybody? Yeah, maybe I'll just do an 687 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 1: A M A on Reddit questions. Um, all right, my 688 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:53,359 Speaker 1: friend Bob by l Right. We didn't accomplish anything there, 689 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: but it was good to talk. Well, we can have 690 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 1: an answer by Thursday. Could we a bad weather? We're 691 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 1: breaking up? Right? Okay? Or not? I don't care. You 692 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,239 Speaker 1: get some locks and bagels. Maybe you go into the 693 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 1: fork room and figure it out. Maybe it's one of 694 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:08,399 Speaker 1: those things that was the equivalent of having like the 695 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 1: seven hour chat through the night into the dawn trying 696 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:14,839 Speaker 1: to work out what the future is. I don't know. 697 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 1: M h. Those are not fun chats. We've all had them. 698 00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:20,360 Speaker 1: They're awful. So now we're gonna wait for the Vikings 699 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,920 Speaker 1: to make the first move. It's a very it's we're 700 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,799 Speaker 1: in a sticky situation stuff. I'm not talking to them 701 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,399 Speaker 1: right now, all right, I have to make the first move. 702 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:33,359 Speaker 1: It time to play one of our favorite games. Yes, 703 00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:37,359 Speaker 1: what's more likely? A A game whereby each of us, 704 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 1: five of us present one um scenario. It's basically an 705 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:48,960 Speaker 1: either or game. UH O R R. Speaking of O 706 00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:51,600 Speaker 1: r R, Connor will be joining us next week. Little 707 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,839 Speaker 1: teas there um for to talk a little bit what's 708 00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:56,399 Speaker 1: going on in life of Connor. But for right now, 709 00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:59,680 Speaker 1: we will each throw out what's more likely, and we'll 710 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:04,839 Speaker 1: start with Mark Sessler. All right, I actually did not 711 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 1: put anything on paper until about five minutes ago for preparation. 712 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:13,280 Speaker 1: But here we go between now in the regular season ending, 713 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:18,360 Speaker 1: UH what's more likely Tony Romo makes a start, Jimmy 714 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:22,879 Speaker 1: Garoppolo makes a start, or r G three wins enough 715 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 1: games for the Browns could be won to keep them 716 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 1: from getting the number one pick. Oh that's a tough one. Well, Brady, 717 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:39,279 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna get hurt. He's only gotten hurt once 718 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:41,879 Speaker 1: and they're currently tied with the Raiders for the best 719 00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 1: record at the ANFC, So there's a to me, a 720 00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,400 Speaker 1: fairly good chance they're gonna need those games, even the 721 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 1: last game. So I'm gonna rule out him. Romo for 722 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 1: Prescott just whether Prescott gets injured, I don't know, or 723 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,560 Speaker 1: if they ran away with the number one seed, they 724 00:38:57,560 --> 00:38:59,840 Speaker 1: could start Romo in week seven. I was thinking about that. 725 00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 1: Do you think they would would do It's a weird 726 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 1: I dont think you would want to do that because 727 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,240 Speaker 1: it just raises too many things, plus city people stupid. 728 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 1: I already rolled out the RG three factor that's not 729 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 1: going to happen. I'll say Romo is the more likely because, 730 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:19,759 Speaker 1: as Dan said, Brady doesn't get hurt. Connie, I'll go 731 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 1: I'll go with Romo starting because I can't stand the 732 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: Cowboys and that seems like something that they would do. 733 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:29,760 Speaker 1: You know what, I will agree with you. In fact, 734 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:32,560 Speaker 1: I think it's a bad idea to even introduce X. 735 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 1: But I think in Jerry Jones's mind it would be 736 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:37,439 Speaker 1: a way of like giving him throwing up a bone. 737 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:40,120 Speaker 1: Are they at home in week seventeen? That also factors 738 00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 1: in here. It's a great question. If they're at home 739 00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:44,680 Speaker 1: in week seventeen and the Cowboys have nothing to play, 740 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 1: that seems like a disaster is like a good bye 741 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 1: farewell basically, that's how they'll play it. I think it's 742 00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 1: more likely Deck gets injured and Romo starts seventeen Dallas 743 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 1: is on the road against the Eagles. Okay, so that 744 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:03,640 Speaker 1: eliminates it basically unless that gets hurt. Um, But you 745 00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:05,200 Speaker 1: know that it's just an injury, all right, I'll go 746 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:07,120 Speaker 1: with I'll go through a moment r G three. I 747 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:09,200 Speaker 1: think the forty Niners have their chance to win this 748 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:12,799 Speaker 1: week against the Bears. But if they don't, I think 749 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:15,960 Speaker 1: we we've all thought the brown will likely win one game. 750 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,440 Speaker 1: It sounds like I don't think that anymore. It sounds 751 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:22,000 Speaker 1: like r G three'll start a game and uh, I 752 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 1: don't know what the strength of victory is No one 753 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,319 Speaker 1: knows that at this point, but even one win might 754 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:28,840 Speaker 1: be enough to do it. So I'm going Rgs have 755 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:32,080 Speaker 1: three games remaining where they could conceivably they could. They 756 00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:35,359 Speaker 1: played fairly well for three straight weeks. All right, up next, 757 00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 1: Chris Wesley. Was more likely the Green Bay Packers come 758 00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:45,960 Speaker 1: back from being what were there four and six to 759 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,759 Speaker 1: make the playoffs, or Aaron Rodgers ends up as the 760 00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:52,240 Speaker 1: NFL's touchdown leader after we spent half the season wondering 761 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:55,000 Speaker 1: what was wrong with him? Where we are right now 762 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 1: with that, he is to total touchdowns behind Drew Brees 763 00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:02,399 Speaker 1: for the NFL. Oh so rushing as well rushing. He's 764 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,720 Speaker 1: their rushing leader for touchdowns as well. He's got thirty 765 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 1: total and Breeze has thirty two total. I like Breeze 766 00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:15,359 Speaker 1: winning that title, though, well you've gotta like the other 767 00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 1: side of it though, too. Yeah, what's the other side again? 768 00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:20,000 Speaker 1: They win? They win the NFC. Yeah, I'll go with that. 769 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:22,239 Speaker 1: I think the Packers have a real good shot to 770 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:26,319 Speaker 1: win the NFC North. Mark's right, we put too much 771 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:29,959 Speaker 1: stock into primetime games sometimes, but I look at Aaron 772 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:31,920 Speaker 1: Rodgers playing at the pretty close to the height of 773 00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:34,440 Speaker 1: his powers, right now, and I see that going a 774 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 1: long way in a mediocre division. I'm not sold on 775 00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:40,120 Speaker 1: the Packers defense. I think that Aaron Rodgers is going 776 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 1: to have to throw the ball and keep scoring and 777 00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:45,359 Speaker 1: keep that offense up high in games. So I'm going 778 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 1: with the second. I I would agree. I think the 779 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:52,719 Speaker 1: Packers getting into the playoffs. I'm going with that side 780 00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:55,360 Speaker 1: of things. I will too, because they've beaten the Lions, 781 00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 1: and they played the Lions again in the finale. They 782 00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:00,880 Speaker 1: could conceivably win the division at nine and seven by 783 00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 1: by winning that game and sweeping Detroit, and Rogers will 784 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:05,720 Speaker 1: be right there. But I think I think he's gonna 785 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:08,320 Speaker 1: just miss the touchdown total, especially if any of the 786 00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:10,839 Speaker 1: running backs start scoring touchdowns, which until last night had 787 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,560 Speaker 1: not happened. Let's hope that hamstring health is healthy as well. 788 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:21,160 Speaker 1: That could be a difference maker up next more. All right, 789 00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,840 Speaker 1: every head coach in the NFL still has their job 790 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 1: on Christmas morning talking about this stuff. I literally wrote 791 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:36,120 Speaker 1: a colibut last week the box make the playoffs. Win 792 00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:38,440 Speaker 1: a playoff game for the first time since two thousands, 793 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:42,600 Speaker 1: win a playoffs. I just make the playoffs. What the 794 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 1: first one was? They all have their jobs on Christmas Morning. 795 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:49,319 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody's getting fired before, yeah, the end 796 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:51,960 Speaker 1: of the season, so I'll say that's more likely. Christmas 797 00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:57,399 Speaker 1: morning is the day after Week sixteen, although a few 798 00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 1: teams are playing on Christmas, So yeah, I would say, 799 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:01,879 Speaker 1: would say that's more likely. I said, I would say 800 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 1: that's even likely. It would be kind of a badass 801 00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 1: evil who's going to fire something that Christmas Eve? They 802 00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 1: make it Kelly did last year. Didn't they make an 803 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:15,640 Speaker 1: eighties comedy about this movie firing somebody on Christmas Day? 804 00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 1: You're right, fired? Why you'll love it? You're right. Market's 805 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 1: not unprecedented at all to fire guys in week fifteen sixteen. 806 00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 1: It does happen for a teams that want to get 807 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:30,719 Speaker 1: a head start. So just thinking to those teams, could 808 00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:33,800 Speaker 1: the Jaguars or the Bears. Those would be two teams 809 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:37,160 Speaker 1: that that come to mind, the idea that Jaguars just 810 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 1: can't resist the temptation to see Doug Moron in. Actually, 811 00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 1: I was thinking about that. I think it's unlikely because 812 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:47,279 Speaker 1: there isn't a team sitting out there, even with the 813 00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,280 Speaker 1: bad teams, where the situation is toxic enough, you usually 814 00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:52,719 Speaker 1: there's some lead up where you hear about discord, you 815 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:56,759 Speaker 1: hear rumors something, But yeah, Jeff Fisher, But I mean 816 00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:59,520 Speaker 1: that's that I'm not sure that the ownership there is 817 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:01,680 Speaker 1: plugged in to make that decision enough. You know, the 818 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:05,720 Speaker 1: week before the season ends, I will go Bucks because 819 00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:09,000 Speaker 1: I like the idea of it. I love it. Well, 820 00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:11,040 Speaker 1: there are six teams right now kind of in the 821 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 1: mix for those two playoffs spots, so that it's gonna 822 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:17,360 Speaker 1: be hard for them to even get to the playoffs 823 00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:20,800 Speaker 1: with their schedule. Well, you need the Redskins or Giants 824 00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:23,279 Speaker 1: to melt. I need But let's see, the are only 825 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:26,400 Speaker 1: half a game up. Schule are good is coming for 826 00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:28,919 Speaker 1: the Giants, one step at a time. For the Bucks, 827 00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:30,239 Speaker 1: even if they make the plus, I don't know if 828 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:31,840 Speaker 1: they're ready to win a game. So I'm gonna go 829 00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 1: with no dismissals. By the way, Black Monday is my birthday, 830 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:40,520 Speaker 1: so appropriate. How many coaches are gonna be fired on 831 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:44,759 Speaker 1: my birthday? Probably four to six? You think four we 832 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 1: haven't really talked about. I feel like that's that's only 833 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:50,000 Speaker 1: talking about. We'll talk about it. Okay, that's right. Isn't 834 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:54,359 Speaker 1: remotely true? You should come up with kind of a 835 00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:56,640 Speaker 1: fun you know, you do a lot of work at NFL. Now, 836 00:44:56,920 --> 00:44:59,400 Speaker 1: I just feel like Black Monday, your birthday on the 837 00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 1: same day. That's just a recipe for some zan I'll 838 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:07,040 Speaker 1: be opening up presence with just throwing that out there. 839 00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:10,360 Speaker 1: You're a huge help. Thank you. Here's the thing with 840 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,919 Speaker 1: the NFL networks, Greg Rosenthal, because he's on the air 841 00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,960 Speaker 1: and he's around all these big wigs of the industry. Uh, 842 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:22,359 Speaker 1: he feels closer uh to a head coach like he could. 843 00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:25,279 Speaker 1: He understands what it's like to be under the spotlight, well, 844 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 1: a leader of men at the point. Yeah, I don't 845 00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:33,640 Speaker 1: like the sound of this man each week, which I 846 00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:37,279 Speaker 1: think is what everyone feels that's listening. You might be 847 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:39,959 Speaker 1: speaking for the listener right not to mention the fact 848 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:42,160 Speaker 1: that you have to drag in this poor guy each 849 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:45,759 Speaker 1: and every week to perform this seared human You don't 850 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:47,680 Speaker 1: like seared buttocks on the podcast. It might be the 851 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:52,040 Speaker 1: hardest I've seen. It's also like he's it sounds like 852 00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:54,800 Speaker 1: he's in a shower of some sort too, because it's echoing. 853 00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:59,320 Speaker 1: It's really unsettling. Drag him into the custodian shower area 854 00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:04,080 Speaker 1: and light his ass on fire. All right, my turn. 855 00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:06,000 Speaker 1: You know I was gonna go with the Packers one 856 00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:09,480 Speaker 1: West two. This will not be my I can give 857 00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:11,600 Speaker 1: you my other one, but I'll just throw this one 858 00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:14,080 Speaker 1: out real quick. We don't need to discuss Packers win 859 00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:16,600 Speaker 1: NFC North or Colts win the a f C South. 860 00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:23,400 Speaker 1: That's a good one. Packers Packers, Yeah, I guess it 861 00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:26,160 Speaker 1: go Packers like West gets Flamin but AFC South. So 862 00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 1: I fascillate between the Colts and the Titans every week. 863 00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 1: But I really think the Lions schedule is too hard 864 00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:36,239 Speaker 1: for a team that could lose to any team. And 865 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,920 Speaker 1: but they're have two games on the Packers, so obviously 866 00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:41,359 Speaker 1: the Packers have to beat them, don't. You're talking about 867 00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:43,480 Speaker 1: a team that's lost to the Bears in the Texans, right, 868 00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:46,279 Speaker 1: But you're assuming they just need to gain one game, though, 869 00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 1: because they play Detroit in the final week and you 870 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:50,879 Speaker 1: own the sweep if they want. So it comes down 871 00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:52,880 Speaker 1: to week seven. They're kind of kissing cousins in a 872 00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:56,960 Speaker 1: way because both are led by amazing quarterbacks. The Packers 873 00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:00,239 Speaker 1: and Cults are both are flawed teams and middling to vision. 874 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Colts because I think the Cults are 875 00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:06,520 Speaker 1: gonna sweep both the Texans and the Titans in a 876 00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:10,319 Speaker 1: bad division where there's not a lot of wins and 877 00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:12,400 Speaker 1: who knows how this all gonna shake up. That's a 878 00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:15,200 Speaker 1: big time advantage. Now, maybe Houston goes to in the oh. 879 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:17,839 Speaker 1: I just blew my whole point. Houston won that first game. 880 00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:26,479 Speaker 1: Take all that away, all right, here's my real what's 881 00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:28,160 Speaker 1: more likely, which is really just a sneaky way to 882 00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 1: the Raiders win the first seed of the f C 883 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:37,319 Speaker 1: or the Browns win their first game, Raiders win the 884 00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:40,600 Speaker 1: first seat. I don't think the Browns are gonna win 885 00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:46,399 Speaker 1: Raiders beating out the Paths. I'm going Browns again. I'm 886 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:49,120 Speaker 1: not ruling out other teams from the a f C, 887 00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:51,640 Speaker 1: granted it, it's gonna be tough. But the chief I 888 00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:53,480 Speaker 1: guess the Chiefs would be the one team with a 889 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:56,600 Speaker 1: decent chance because they everyone forgets they beat the crap 890 00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:59,759 Speaker 1: out of the Raiders. They dominated the Raiders, they get 891 00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:02,279 Speaker 1: the Eaters in Kansas City. There are only one game 892 00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:05,360 Speaker 1: back that they're in that mix. But I I would 893 00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:07,480 Speaker 1: go Browns for that reason. I don't think r G 894 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:10,440 Speaker 1: three is helping the Brown's chances of winning games. It 895 00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:12,879 Speaker 1: sounds like he's gonna be in the mix. Also, he's 896 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:14,480 Speaker 1: going to be injured by the end of the first 897 00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:17,720 Speaker 1: quarter of the game. He plays most likely Mark Raiders, 898 00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:20,399 Speaker 1: play the Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Cults, and Broncos. I think 899 00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:24,360 Speaker 1: they're gonna slip up once or twice. Um, they're not 900 00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:26,400 Speaker 1: going to get the a f c's top seed, not 901 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:28,480 Speaker 1: with New England sitting there and Cleveland will go one 902 00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:32,239 Speaker 1: and fifteen. Let's see, where's your peace scale? By the way, 903 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,279 Speaker 1: on the Browns now. I know it sounds I know 904 00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:38,239 Speaker 1: this sounds tiresome to to uh most of the people 905 00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:40,279 Speaker 1: in the room, But I have no peace scale. I mean, 906 00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:43,120 Speaker 1: what what's gonna happen? What's gonna happen? Is gonna happen. 907 00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:46,440 Speaker 1: I it's there's enough things floating through the mind on 908 00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:49,640 Speaker 1: seven cycle that I have control over. I have no 909 00:48:49,719 --> 00:48:53,040 Speaker 1: control over this. The peace scale should be. How worried 910 00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:54,879 Speaker 1: are you that the Browns won't get the number one pick? 911 00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:58,439 Speaker 1: Not that that's much more if presuming there's some rock 912 00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:01,120 Speaker 1: star at number one. I don't want to see them 913 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:03,439 Speaker 1: for the eighth time in like ten years not get 914 00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:05,919 Speaker 1: the number one pick. Like I said, finish the job there. 915 00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:11,279 Speaker 1: I mean they don't feel Bengals, Bills, Charger Steelers. Who 916 00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:16,000 Speaker 1: are they going to beat the Bills? The Bills are 917 00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:18,759 Speaker 1: not a safe team in any game because they don't 918 00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:20,680 Speaker 1: have a passing game. They're they're a dangerous team. But 919 00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:25,640 Speaker 1: there's a reason why the Jaguars paid If the Jaguars 920 00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:27,320 Speaker 1: can play them straight up, and that let was a 921 00:49:27,440 --> 00:49:31,600 Speaker 1: very evenly played I think it's the Bengals, or it's 922 00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:34,840 Speaker 1: something weird happens. These things are always broken by something 923 00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 1: no one sees coming. I didn't like Hugh Jackson crying. 924 00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:40,200 Speaker 1: I feel like it's starting to really wear on the 925 00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:42,400 Speaker 1: I don't have a problem with him. I think that 926 00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:44,960 Speaker 1: for human, for Sashi Brown, the rest. They don't want 927 00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:48,080 Speaker 1: to go on sixteen. That again, all right? One more 928 00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:55,040 Speaker 1: from the Boss more West West was getting getting into 929 00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:58,000 Speaker 1: this a little earlier. Which which team is more likely 930 00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:02,239 Speaker 1: to careen out of They're eight and three record and 931 00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:05,080 Speaker 1: straight out of the playoffs. The New York Giants are 932 00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:12,760 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs Giants. Giants enter is coming. Giants, 933 00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:16,959 Speaker 1: it should be pointed out, have a full two game 934 00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:21,120 Speaker 1: lead they're on the number seven seed in the NFC 935 00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:24,359 Speaker 1: Chiefs play that they probably are in if they go 936 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:27,000 Speaker 1: two and three, which which is a nice spot to be. Yeah, 937 00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:28,680 Speaker 1: I think, like we said, Sunny, the one thing that 938 00:50:28,719 --> 00:50:31,239 Speaker 1: the Giants have going for them in that conference is 939 00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:33,640 Speaker 1: you may not like how they did it or they didn't. 940 00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:36,040 Speaker 1: They played some cheap competition potentially of the last weeks, 941 00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:37,760 Speaker 1: but they got to the point where they can slip 942 00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:40,080 Speaker 1: up and still back into the playoffs win every game 943 00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:42,920 Speaker 1: they're supposed to win. So we're asking them to change 944 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:45,759 Speaker 1: the identity of what they've established this point, which is 945 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:48,000 Speaker 1: all right. Maybe they won't beat the tougher team on 946 00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:49,880 Speaker 1: the schedule, but they should take care of business against 947 00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:51,719 Speaker 1: the lesser teams. That's why I think they're gonna get 948 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:54,120 Speaker 1: the ten wins. I don't believe that at all. They've 949 00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:56,360 Speaker 1: They've toyed around with lesser teams who they could have 950 00:50:56,400 --> 00:50:59,959 Speaker 1: easily lost those games, but they didn't. And and last, 951 00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,239 Speaker 1: like some d n A that says that they have 952 00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:05,000 Speaker 1: they have this natural strength that allows them to beat 953 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:08,359 Speaker 1: bad teams. Sooner or later, you get burned by that. Well, 954 00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:10,439 Speaker 1: they're playing all winning teams. The rest of the way 955 00:51:10,480 --> 00:51:14,520 Speaker 1: except the Sunday night game in Philadelphia, assuming that doesn't 956 00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:18,560 Speaker 1: get flexed Thursday. Look at the chief schedule. You've got 957 00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:22,920 Speaker 1: the Falcons, the Raiders, the Titans, they have Broncos and 958 00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:27,960 Speaker 1: the Chargers. I think it's that's not They're not going 959 00:51:28,040 --> 00:51:30,719 Speaker 1: to coast into January either. Is it true that they 960 00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:35,160 Speaker 1: played every single snap besides like three in eleven personnel 961 00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:38,160 Speaker 1: on Sunday? I didn't watch the game close Chiefs? Yeah? 962 00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:40,960 Speaker 1: Or no, the Giants. That's their normal offense. Yeah, Actually, 963 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,359 Speaker 1: going into the all season long, they're like, well that's 964 00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:46,160 Speaker 1: their strength. They don't they haven't had a running there's 965 00:51:46,200 --> 00:51:50,120 Speaker 1: only not two back offense. That's so predictable. Though. That 966 00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:52,400 Speaker 1: was such a such a big win by the Chiefs, 967 00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:54,040 Speaker 1: but they were pretty lucky to win that game. I'm 968 00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:58,239 Speaker 1: gonna go with the Chiefs are more likely to fall everybody, Uh, 969 00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:01,200 Speaker 1: share their piece there all it? Yeah, I couldn't throw 970 00:52:01,239 --> 00:52:06,200 Speaker 1: one more in go ahead West one more more. The 971 00:52:06,360 --> 00:52:09,040 Speaker 1: m v P Award is won by a member of 972 00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:12,840 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys or a member of the other thirty 973 00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:17,680 Speaker 1: one teams. Always take the field, you, you typically say, 974 00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:21,600 Speaker 1: but this is this might be a different case. Not 975 00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:25,640 Speaker 1: for me. I am taking the field. I think Tom Brady, 976 00:52:26,040 --> 00:52:29,040 Speaker 1: you know, little speed bump here lately, and I don't 977 00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:31,959 Speaker 1: think Brady's gonna get it. He's gotta be. He's gonna 978 00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:34,880 Speaker 1: be head and shoulders over the crowd like Joe Montana 979 00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:38,440 Speaker 1: was when he lost three games. That's the only president. 980 00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:40,920 Speaker 1: And Tom Brady has not been head and shoulders for 981 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:44,200 Speaker 1: the past month. I think he has been until last week. 982 00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:48,400 Speaker 1: But if that's a sign of things to come, that's troubling. 983 00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:51,560 Speaker 1: I think if Dak Prescott wins the m v P, 984 00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:56,880 Speaker 1: it's a it's a little bit of a couldn't that 985 00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:59,240 Speaker 1: That's what I was getting too. That makes some sense 986 00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:02,000 Speaker 1: to me, And you could see the writers kind of 987 00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:05,480 Speaker 1: getting behind that as almost like a let's reward the 988 00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:08,719 Speaker 1: running game. It's almost like giving it to the offensive line. 989 00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:11,799 Speaker 1: You could see that, And I mean, I totally think 990 00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:14,680 Speaker 1: that that. The Belichick and Brady should have won many 991 00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:17,439 Speaker 1: more head coaching awards and m vps over the years 992 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:20,480 Speaker 1: than they have. But the Patriots went three and one 993 00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:23,960 Speaker 1: without without Brady, and they've been this same team with 994 00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:26,879 Speaker 1: Brady record wise year after year. This year doesn't particularly 995 00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:29,920 Speaker 1: stand out necessarily, the Cowboys were what four and twelve? 996 00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:32,640 Speaker 1: I think it stands out if he closes strong, he 997 00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:35,200 Speaker 1: his numbers are as good as they've ever been. Ryan 998 00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:37,440 Speaker 1: is a much better m VP candidate than Tom Brady 999 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:41,120 Speaker 1: a week ago, though he literally had better numbers than 1000 00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:44,160 Speaker 1: he's ever had in his entire career. I'm from a 1001 00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:48,719 Speaker 1: point is Elliott and whether it's Elliot or President and 1002 00:53:48,719 --> 00:53:51,160 Speaker 1: Prescott are both. They come in and the team goes 1003 00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:53,080 Speaker 1: four and twelve last year or whatever the record was, 1004 00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:56,120 Speaker 1: and they are now the best team in the NFL arguably. Well, 1005 00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:58,759 Speaker 1: the fact that the Cowboys have two guys that are 1006 00:53:58,840 --> 00:54:02,200 Speaker 1: legitimate Canada it's for it. It just they take up 1007 00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:04,640 Speaker 1: all the attention and so it's I think it's gonna 1008 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:06,640 Speaker 1: be really hard for anybody else in the field because 1009 00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:09,040 Speaker 1: if when you have two guys right there, everybody's looking 1010 00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:12,520 Speaker 1: at that team. Yeah, you're right, it's number one. I 1011 00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:14,520 Speaker 1: was gonna say, if you guys are voting today, I 1012 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:16,320 Speaker 1: know this is off what's more likely, But if you 1013 00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:19,040 Speaker 1: guys are voting today, who who would you pick? Not 1014 00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:21,400 Speaker 1: who do you think would win? But who would you think? 1015 00:54:21,440 --> 00:54:24,360 Speaker 1: I would have to study really hard between Ezeel Elliott 1016 00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:28,920 Speaker 1: and Matt Ryan. I would say, Ezekiel Elliott, I think 1017 00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:32,000 Speaker 1: I would go, Matt Ryan, are you pulling it if 1018 00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:34,520 Speaker 1: the season ended today? Yeah, I mean I know that's 1019 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:36,719 Speaker 1: a little tricky, but yeah, I thought you hated that. 1020 00:54:37,560 --> 00:54:39,719 Speaker 1: That was just like a one. You made a lot 1021 00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:44,120 Speaker 1: of things. Um, here's my dark horse in this. Matt 1022 00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:46,759 Speaker 1: Ryan's a very fair pick. I like that. Zeke and 1023 00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:48,640 Speaker 1: Dad could end up splitting the vote, which would cost 1024 00:54:48,680 --> 00:54:50,560 Speaker 1: both of them in this type of race. But how 1025 00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:53,239 Speaker 1: about if the if the Saints do grab wild card, 1026 00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:57,640 Speaker 1: spot Free is leading every statistical category, throws for five 1027 00:54:57,640 --> 00:55:00,799 Speaker 1: thousand yards and forty two touchdowns, that has a one 1028 00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:03,360 Speaker 1: tent passer rating, whatever, and they make the playoffs. I 1029 00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:06,279 Speaker 1: think they need That's that's that's the tough part. They're 1030 00:55:06,280 --> 00:55:08,839 Speaker 1: a losing record, you know, because again it's Drew Brees 1031 00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:12,080 Speaker 1: has been outstanding. But what is the difference in in 1032 00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:14,120 Speaker 1: the mind of some of these voters of Drew Brees 1033 00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:16,279 Speaker 1: this year in other years? To us, we see a 1034 00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:19,480 Speaker 1: difference potentially, But the Cowboys have two players that didn't 1035 00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:22,160 Speaker 1: exist in the NFL a year ago who are captivating. 1036 00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:24,200 Speaker 1: Go watch an NFL pregame show even on NFL Network, 1037 00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:27,960 Speaker 1: It's sixty minutes of Dallas Cowboys. The numbers. Are we 1038 00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:31,400 Speaker 1: missing anyone? By the way, Derek Carr, Derek Car a 1039 00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:33,799 Speaker 1: lot of people. I also think Matt Ryan has been 1040 00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:36,240 Speaker 1: a better quarterback than Drew Brees, leading a better offense 1041 00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:38,760 Speaker 1: than Drew Brees. I I agree. As much as I 1042 00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:42,560 Speaker 1: love Drew Brees this year and think he's been better 1043 00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:45,920 Speaker 1: than he's been the last few years and is solidly 1044 00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:48,080 Speaker 1: in the top three quarterbacks and would be on the 1045 00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:50,160 Speaker 1: top three or four m VP, I think Matt Ryan's 1046 00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:52,640 Speaker 1: been better Breese should be in the conversation though he 1047 00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:57,080 Speaker 1: really hasn't been. I'm not gonna I know people hate 1048 00:55:57,120 --> 00:55:58,640 Speaker 1: to hear that. I'm not gonna pick a player who's 1049 00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:00,600 Speaker 1: on a losing team to be in the m v P. 1050 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:03,440 Speaker 1: This is all to me under Yeah, they would have 1051 00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:05,839 Speaker 1: to go ted in six or something like that. Right now, 1052 00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:08,440 Speaker 1: he's on pace for fifty yards touch and a lot 1053 00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:10,600 Speaker 1: of people say, don't take his stats too seriously, but 1054 00:56:10,640 --> 00:56:13,799 Speaker 1: I do d yards, forty four touchdowns, twelve picks, and 1055 00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:17,280 Speaker 1: a hundred nine pass rating. Doesn't he do that every year? Yeah? 1056 00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:22,239 Speaker 1: He does, which is pretty amazing. I agree all right, 1057 00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:27,399 Speaker 1: Ryan leads the league in yards per tempt yards. It's 1058 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:30,840 Speaker 1: it's also it's not best stats. It's the most valuable player. 1059 00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:32,440 Speaker 1: And I don't and I feel like Tom Brady has 1060 00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:35,319 Speaker 1: been overlooked far too many times in general, the most 1061 00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:39,640 Speaker 1: valuable overall player in the league the entire century is 1062 00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:42,160 Speaker 1: to just I wouldn't reward him just this year just 1063 00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:44,880 Speaker 1: because other years we missed. Well, that stuff happens all 1064 00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:46,800 Speaker 1: the time. I agree with you in principle, but in 1065 00:56:46,920 --> 00:56:49,560 Speaker 1: just that Brady has been overlooked when he's been the 1066 00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:51,960 Speaker 1: most valuable player. He's not more than once. He's not 1067 00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:55,359 Speaker 1: gonna want for more decorations when he retires. That also 1068 00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:56,920 Speaker 1: has nothing to do with it. But I agree with you, 1069 00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:59,080 Speaker 1: but that that's not how the voters should think. Whether 1070 00:56:59,120 --> 00:57:01,640 Speaker 1: he wants an MVP trophy, I mean, I'm going Dallas 1071 00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:04,959 Speaker 1: number one, two time Most Valuable Player, three times Super 1072 00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:06,520 Speaker 1: Bowl m v P. I don't. I feel like Tom 1073 00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:12,920 Speaker 1: Brady has been well it would come a million a year. 1074 00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:16,480 Speaker 1: I don't really. I'm just does nothing for hashtag gradual decline. 1075 00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:23,760 Speaker 1: He's year come back Year award, eleven time Pro bowler, 1076 00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:26,680 Speaker 1: the point at under the radar all of this. These 1077 00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:28,840 Speaker 1: awards are narrative driven, and they look for something that's 1078 00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:31,720 Speaker 1: new and flashy. Last year, that's the Dallas Cowboys. It's 1079 00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:33,880 Speaker 1: not Tom Brady, and frankly, it's not Matt Ryan to 1080 00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:36,360 Speaker 1: most football back I think you're right, Mark, And I 1081 00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:39,320 Speaker 1: think if the award was being held today, another you 1082 00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:41,160 Speaker 1: know thing you said, I don't like. That's a little tweak. 1083 00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:44,320 Speaker 1: I think I think Elliott would win if I had 1084 00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:49,400 Speaker 1: to guess. Alright, let's move on, guys, talk Thursday night football. 1085 00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:53,680 Speaker 1: Speaking of the Dallas Cowboys, they head to Minnesota at 1086 00:57:53,760 --> 00:57:58,040 Speaker 1: ten and one. Cowboys have not lost uh in like 1087 00:57:58,160 --> 00:58:01,000 Speaker 1: over eighty days now seems like forever. And they lost 1088 00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:03,800 Speaker 1: the season opener to the Giants uh and have won 1089 00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:07,000 Speaker 1: every game since. And now they go and travel UH 1090 00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:11,480 Speaker 1: to Minnesota a team and the Vikings that really, um 1091 00:58:11,560 --> 00:58:14,920 Speaker 1: again did not look great on Thanksgiving their last game. 1092 00:58:14,960 --> 00:58:19,040 Speaker 1: They did, uh play well. Uh, We've got some big 1093 00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:21,200 Speaker 1: plays to beat the Cardinals the prior week, and then 1094 00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:24,040 Speaker 1: of course they lost four games in row prior to that. 1095 00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:27,400 Speaker 1: So I think in a lot of ways, uh, Colleen Wolf, 1096 00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:29,720 Speaker 1: the Vikings are still a team that everyone's trying to 1097 00:58:29,720 --> 00:58:32,240 Speaker 1: figure out were relationship wise, We're trying to figure them out. 1098 00:58:32,280 --> 00:58:34,360 Speaker 1: The NFL now trying to are the Vikings any good 1099 00:58:34,440 --> 00:58:37,160 Speaker 1: or not? And but we know how good the Cowboys are. Yeah, 1100 00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:40,800 Speaker 1: they could clinch a playoffs. But this week too with 1101 00:58:41,120 --> 00:58:43,680 Speaker 1: if they win in Washington loses or if they win 1102 00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:46,560 Speaker 1: uh yeah the Cowboys or and if they win in 1103 00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:50,280 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay loses or ties, which we've seen a lot of. 1104 00:58:50,360 --> 00:58:53,880 Speaker 1: But yeah, the Vikings, it's it's really hard to figure 1105 00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:56,000 Speaker 1: them out. It was kind of a boring game too 1106 00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:58,600 Speaker 1: to watch on Thanksgiving because after the first drive to 1107 00:58:58,640 --> 00:59:00,840 Speaker 1: tell me about it, I was here, I'm that was 1108 00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:02,840 Speaker 1: it for the offense, and then they just traded field 1109 00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:06,320 Speaker 1: goals back and forth until Sam Bradford, under pressure just 1110 00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:08,800 Speaker 1: throws a huge interception. I throw something out about that 1111 00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:10,600 Speaker 1: because I know in this room there's been a lot 1112 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:15,520 Speaker 1: of um positive comments about Sam Bradford this season, pointing 1113 00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:17,760 Speaker 1: Tim is not the problem. I'm not saying he's the problem, 1114 00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:20,640 Speaker 1: but they don't score any points. I mean, and he's 1115 00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:23,520 Speaker 1: the quarterback, so like he's having his best season. He's 1116 00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:26,760 Speaker 1: making throws right, but does But at the end of 1117 00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:29,840 Speaker 1: the day, though their offense is still not good. I'm 1118 00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:31,520 Speaker 1: not saying it's his fault, but this doesn't have to 1119 00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:33,360 Speaker 1: be a little bit better. A lot better at home 1120 00:59:33,880 --> 00:59:38,240 Speaker 1: is on the road. Seven touchdown zero And if you're 1121 00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:42,040 Speaker 1: watching the games, I don't think any straight minded person 1122 00:59:42,080 --> 00:59:44,320 Speaker 1: is gonna say Sam Bradford, I don't think he has 1123 00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:45,960 Speaker 1: to be better. I think I think he's dealing with 1124 00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:50,280 Speaker 1: the worst rushing attack we've ever seen in our lives. 1125 00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:54,840 Speaker 1: Two point four yards the worst rushing attack do not 1126 00:59:54,920 --> 00:59:57,280 Speaker 1: the answer. They don't pick up third and fourth and 1127 00:59:57,400 --> 01:00:00,200 Speaker 1: one in key situations, which means they don't convert red 1128 01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:02,520 Speaker 1: zone and they don't score touchdowns. They also have the 1129 01:00:02,560 --> 01:00:04,920 Speaker 1: worst offensive line in the NFL. But and I just 1130 01:00:05,040 --> 01:00:07,360 Speaker 1: have to be better. Though, well maybe he's not there. 1131 01:00:08,840 --> 01:00:11,959 Speaker 1: He need he Aaron Rodgers, I believe will be playing 1132 01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:14,360 Speaker 1: worse in this offense than Sam. Here's the thing. They've 1133 01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:18,880 Speaker 1: they've overcorrected, how careful they are. I know the offensive 1134 01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:21,800 Speaker 1: line is bad, but watching that game, Mark it must 1135 01:00:21,800 --> 01:00:24,880 Speaker 1: have driven you crazy. How they throw short of the 1136 01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:28,560 Speaker 1: sticks every freaking third down. And that's a little bit 1137 01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:31,040 Speaker 1: on Sam Bradford. He is about to set at all 1138 01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:34,760 Speaker 1: time record for completion percentage on one of the worst 1139 01:00:34,840 --> 01:00:40,760 Speaker 1: offenses in football, so that that doesn't compute. Yeah, that's fine, 1140 01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:43,320 Speaker 1: but you gotta something needs to change because that's not 1141 01:00:43,440 --> 01:00:46,240 Speaker 1: enough when you go again but twenty two, like, okay, 1142 01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:48,640 Speaker 1: you need to change, So now drop back another two 1143 01:00:48,640 --> 01:00:50,600 Speaker 1: steps and get sacked. No. I mean you just have 1144 01:00:50,680 --> 01:00:52,760 Speaker 1: to fit. You have to figure out ways to mix 1145 01:00:52,800 --> 01:00:55,760 Speaker 1: in some longer plays. I mean, when you score thirteen 1146 01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:58,800 Speaker 1: points against the Lions on a day where Sam Bradford 1147 01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:02,880 Speaker 1: played pretty well, it's like something's wrong. Average pass traveled 1148 01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:04,760 Speaker 1: three point for a right. That's that's what. That's all 1149 01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:06,880 Speaker 1: I'm saying. That's it's too much. You gotta have some 1150 01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:09,280 Speaker 1: That's what happened when Shermer took over for North term 1151 01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:12,000 Speaker 1: it is, and it's also a symptom of their personnel 1152 01:01:12,040 --> 01:01:14,040 Speaker 1: in their offense. They all they did not have stuff 1153 01:01:14,040 --> 01:01:17,000 Speaker 1: on digs in the lineup on Thanksgiving getting him back? 1154 01:01:17,560 --> 01:01:19,919 Speaker 1: Is it enough against the Dallas Cowboys? I would say 1155 01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:22,760 Speaker 1: absolutely not. But he gives you a downhill eleman, He's 1156 01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:24,760 Speaker 1: he's a star wide receiver. Watched that game and I 1157 01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:27,720 Speaker 1: thought the Vikings were a better team and and at worst, 1158 01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:30,520 Speaker 1: I don't think you can watch that game and think Oh, 1159 01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:32,800 Speaker 1: the Lions are some better team. They were just too 1160 01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:35,360 Speaker 1: evenly played teams who both had a lot of flowers 1161 01:01:35,720 --> 01:01:37,280 Speaker 1: and one of them, you know, came up with the 1162 01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:39,240 Speaker 1: plays that at the end. That's what the Lions do. 1163 01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:41,560 Speaker 1: But I don't think they're terrible. Really could have used 1164 01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:44,520 Speaker 1: this year is an impact performance from their first round pick, 1165 01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:47,440 Speaker 1: who was a wide receiver. Like that's almost flown under 1166 01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:50,120 Speaker 1: the radar. It's not like the quarterback that they're developed here. Yeah, 1167 01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:52,560 Speaker 1: he was a what the eighteenth nineteenth overall pick in 1168 01:01:52,560 --> 01:01:55,120 Speaker 1: the draft, and he is a nonentity in this office 1169 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:57,680 Speaker 1: and and a reliable kicker. Would they'd have a different 1170 01:01:57,720 --> 01:02:02,200 Speaker 1: record entirely if they had a reliable kicker team. The 1171 01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:05,560 Speaker 1: offensive line and ground attack are the Blake borders of 1172 01:02:05,600 --> 01:02:08,720 Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings. That's holding the team hostage. And it 1173 01:02:08,840 --> 01:02:11,440 Speaker 1: doesn't really you can point the fingers anywhere else on 1174 01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:13,960 Speaker 1: this team, but you'd be wrong. It's all the offensive 1175 01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:16,400 Speaker 1: line in ground attack. But this is a great matchup 1176 01:02:16,440 --> 01:02:20,400 Speaker 1: for them. I I know, uh, it's it's not a 1177 01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:23,160 Speaker 1: game they should be favored. But if you want to play, 1178 01:02:23,760 --> 01:02:25,760 Speaker 1: if you're the Vikings, the teams you want to play 1179 01:02:25,800 --> 01:02:30,000 Speaker 1: are teams that play safe defense, play zone defense, and 1180 01:02:30,040 --> 01:02:32,080 Speaker 1: have no pass rush. And oh, by the way, the 1181 01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:35,080 Speaker 1: Cowboys give up five hundred yards and eight freaking drives 1182 01:02:35,080 --> 01:02:38,920 Speaker 1: against Washington. They have no pass rush, and the Vikings 1183 01:02:38,920 --> 01:02:41,800 Speaker 1: are Redskins are averaging almost five hundred yards per game. Right, 1184 01:02:41,800 --> 01:02:43,120 Speaker 1: but that was an eight drive. It was one of 1185 01:02:43,160 --> 01:02:45,880 Speaker 1: the better offensive performances. All I'm saying is have your 1186 01:02:45,920 --> 01:02:48,160 Speaker 1: defense show up, make a couple of plays. And this 1187 01:02:48,240 --> 01:02:49,960 Speaker 1: is a defense, you should be able to move the ball. 1188 01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:52,240 Speaker 1: I I like, I like what you're saying. I where 1189 01:02:52,240 --> 01:02:53,920 Speaker 1: I would flip the script, though, is if you want 1190 01:02:53,920 --> 01:02:56,080 Speaker 1: to beat Dallas, you've got to do what Dallas does. 1191 01:02:56,160 --> 01:02:57,840 Speaker 1: You've got to find a way. You have to have 1192 01:02:57,920 --> 01:02:59,960 Speaker 1: the type of offense that can get on the few 1193 01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:01,960 Speaker 1: old and stay on the field for long drives. To 1194 01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:05,520 Speaker 1: keep Dallas and what they do on the sideline, keep 1195 01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:08,920 Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott on the sideline, keep keep a loaded passing 1196 01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:13,120 Speaker 1: game on the sideline. Minnesota has cannot sustain drives for 1197 01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:15,680 Speaker 1: all the reasons that we just mentioned. Adrian Peterson, by 1198 01:03:15,680 --> 01:03:17,560 Speaker 1: the way, not in the mix for this game, but 1199 01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:21,200 Speaker 1: positive news for the Vikings that he is uh now 1200 01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:24,160 Speaker 1: running off to the side at practice on Tuesday. According 1201 01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:27,200 Speaker 1: to Stacy Dale's of NFL Network, he might be ahead 1202 01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:30,240 Speaker 1: of schedule. But the question I guess and I'll ask 1203 01:03:30,320 --> 01:03:33,880 Speaker 1: us is do you think that matters between him coming 1204 01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:36,640 Speaker 1: back from a serious knee injury and an offensive line 1205 01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:38,880 Speaker 1: that's a major problem. I think it matters. He's an 1206 01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:41,920 Speaker 1: upgrade on Jerick McKinnon and Matt Matt Ausiata big time. 1207 01:03:41,960 --> 01:03:43,480 Speaker 1: But could he be a difference maker. You'd have to 1208 01:03:43,560 --> 01:03:46,000 Speaker 1: game plan for them differently if you're turing Peterson sitting 1209 01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:48,800 Speaker 1: in the back because they're they're in all these games 1210 01:03:48,960 --> 01:03:52,439 Speaker 1: that they're not a good team. But all of these 1211 01:03:52,480 --> 01:03:55,120 Speaker 1: losses except for the Bears loss came down to the 1212 01:03:55,120 --> 01:03:57,760 Speaker 1: final possession. So if you can get a little better 1213 01:03:57,760 --> 01:04:00,520 Speaker 1: with Adrian Peterson, you know you get if on big 1214 01:04:00,560 --> 01:04:02,920 Speaker 1: dig but maybe they can flip it, can flip some 1215 01:04:02,920 --> 01:04:05,480 Speaker 1: of these close games, convert some short yardage, which are 1216 01:04:05,520 --> 01:04:08,320 Speaker 1: the biggest plays in any game. Really, like you're in 1217 01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:10,040 Speaker 1: the red zone. You need fourth and one or third 1218 01:04:10,040 --> 01:04:13,680 Speaker 1: and one. They never make it. Hey, Vikings, tell me 1219 01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:17,760 Speaker 1: you love me, right, tell me you love This does 1220 01:04:17,800 --> 01:04:24,000 Speaker 1: seem personal, right, Zimmer If you've watched Zimmer in press 1221 01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:26,360 Speaker 1: this week. Oh, he is fired up. They are fired 1222 01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:29,040 Speaker 1: up for this game. He's fired up because he's been 1223 01:04:29,080 --> 01:04:31,800 Speaker 1: with the Cowboys a long time and it's a personal 1224 01:04:31,840 --> 01:04:34,040 Speaker 1: game with him, and he worked for the Joneses, and 1225 01:04:34,120 --> 01:04:36,520 Speaker 1: he knows they're underdogs and this feels like a back 1226 01:04:36,560 --> 01:04:38,240 Speaker 1: against the wild game. Will see the best out of 1227 01:04:38,240 --> 01:04:40,080 Speaker 1: the Vikings. It's a lot of that, and they play 1228 01:04:40,240 --> 01:04:42,720 Speaker 1: much better defense at home. But I think in the 1229 01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:45,520 Speaker 1: year two thousand and sixteen, the defense does not exist 1230 01:04:45,640 --> 01:04:48,040 Speaker 1: that can stop the Dallas Cowboys. Pick the game, Mark 1231 01:04:48,560 --> 01:05:04,480 Speaker 1: Dallas score thirty one Cowboys, Uh thirty to thirteen. Um, Cowboys. 1232 01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:10,360 Speaker 1: I think I know where our hearts are. Cowboys. I'm 1233 01:05:10,400 --> 01:05:14,640 Speaker 1: sticking with the Vikings. I mean, I I don't think. 1234 01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:17,400 Speaker 1: I don't think it's that crazy. You're right, I'd probably 1235 01:05:17,400 --> 01:05:19,360 Speaker 1: pick him in every game. That's Greg's not breaking up. 1236 01:05:20,560 --> 01:05:24,520 Speaker 1: I'm sticking with him. I mean, I think they have 1237 01:05:24,880 --> 01:05:28,200 Speaker 1: I think they have some some exciting, big games left 1238 01:05:28,240 --> 01:05:30,880 Speaker 1: in them, and this would be a season saver. It 1239 01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:34,960 Speaker 1: would end in that building in prime time. It wouldn't 1240 01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:36,960 Speaker 1: be the most stunning thing in the world. All right, 1241 01:05:37,240 --> 01:05:39,840 Speaker 1: that's it. Hey, before we go one more time Around 1242 01:05:39,840 --> 01:05:43,520 Speaker 1: the Horn we're talking about.

It's 1248 01:06:01,400 --> 01:06:02,880 Speaker 1: I didn't really get it at the time. It took 1249 01:06:02,920 --> 01:06:05,280 Speaker 1: a little time to figure it out. Around the Horn. 1250 01:06:05,440 --> 01:06:09,960 Speaker 1: First date movie that you saw came out December eleventh, 1251 01:06:10,120 --> 01:06:14,600 Speaker 1: nine five.

Well, our entire sixth grade class went 1260 01:06:45,360 --> 01:06:48,960 Speaker 1: to the same movie theater, and so it wasn't like 1261 01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:51,680 Speaker 1: I had to engineer the whole thing from complete scratch, 1262 01:06:52,320 --> 01:06:54,600 Speaker 1: we counting that? Should we count that it was a 1263 01:06:54,720 --> 01:06:57,600 Speaker 1: date that we were dating? For it? Did you pay 1264 01:06:57,640 --> 01:07:00,520 Speaker 1: for it? Pay for her?

What this was? 1268 01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:12,960 Speaker 1: I was legitimately dating this this young woman. Yes, I was. 1269 01:07:13,320 --> 01:07:17,480 Speaker 1: He was a girl. Wait what happened? What happened? I 1270 01:07:17,480 --> 01:07:19,400 Speaker 1: can't get into that. There was a lot of there 1271 01:07:19,480 --> 01:07:21,720 Speaker 1: was a lot of peer pressure from like very annoying 1272 01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:25,000 Speaker 1: male friends, Mark because it was one of the few 1273 01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:27,280 Speaker 1: dates probably happening in the theater, and there were a 1274 01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:31,880 Speaker 1: gang of like coming up right behind me saying stuff 1275 01:07:31,920 --> 01:07:34,400 Speaker 1: to us. And her name was Robin, a very nice girl, 1276 01:07:34,800 --> 01:07:37,560 Speaker 1: and I feel bad for it. Relationship crumbled soon after 1277 01:07:37,720 --> 01:07:40,760 Speaker 1: Mark before the show that something very disturbing was going 1278 01:07:40,760 --> 01:07:42,200 Speaker 1: on in the theater. Well it was that it was 1279 01:07:42,320 --> 01:07:45,120 Speaker 1: you had a peanut gallery. That was absolutely and it was. 1280 01:07:45,240 --> 01:07:51,040 Speaker 1: It was. It was unnecessary, all right, West, because I 1281 01:07:52,120 --> 01:07:53,960 Speaker 1: was always friends with girls before we went out. I 1282 01:07:54,000 --> 01:07:56,200 Speaker 1: didn't really date until I was forty two years old. 1283 01:07:56,240 --> 01:07:59,440 Speaker 1: But I do remember this last week. Back when I 1284 01:07:59,560 --> 01:08:01,960 Speaker 1: was one and I was delivering mail, a girl who 1285 01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:04,480 Speaker 1: grew up behind me asked me out when we went 1286 01:08:04,520 --> 01:08:08,680 Speaker 1: to go see Casino, and I fell. I fell asleep 1287 01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:10,400 Speaker 1: during the movie because I was getting up at like 1288 01:08:10,480 --> 01:08:12,160 Speaker 1: five in the morning to go on my mail route 1289 01:08:12,840 --> 01:08:15,240 Speaker 1: and like the date, like she wanted to go out again, 1290 01:08:15,280 --> 01:08:17,120 Speaker 1: and I was just like, man, I fell asleep during. 1291 01:08:17,840 --> 01:08:19,960 Speaker 1: I was going to say, like exciting, it's not a 1292 01:08:20,120 --> 01:08:22,360 Speaker 1: it's not the best movie to like go necking too. 1293 01:08:22,600 --> 01:08:26,040 Speaker 1: As Joe Peschi gets buried alive in a cornfield, I mean, 1294 01:08:27,200 --> 01:08:30,360 Speaker 1: good luck trying to neck with somebody who's sleeping. Nick, 1295 01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:35,599 Speaker 1: Who's why are you both still using that for noodle? 1296 01:08:37,320 --> 01:08:40,600 Speaker 1: I don't really remember a whole lot in general, but 1297 01:08:41,560 --> 01:08:46,240 Speaker 1: I don't know who knows, just you know, different things 1298 01:08:46,320 --> 01:08:49,919 Speaker 1: here and there. But the first date I can remember 1299 01:08:50,320 --> 01:08:54,960 Speaker 1: that was at a movie theater. It was Armacgeddono, and 1300 01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:57,880 Speaker 1: it was such a bad day. And every time I 1301 01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:02,120 Speaker 1: heard that song that was popular, it just reminded me 1302 01:09:02,200 --> 01:09:04,599 Speaker 1: of the date, and it just like would not stop 1303 01:09:04,680 --> 01:09:07,240 Speaker 1: playing everything you thought you were Ben Affleck and lived 1304 01:09:07,280 --> 01:09:09,160 Speaker 1: Tyler around that lawn that they were lying on with 1305 01:09:09,200 --> 01:09:11,720 Speaker 1: their animal Crackers. I needed to get out. The date 1306 01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:15,960 Speaker 1: was kind of not sanitary with the animal Cracker. No, 1307 01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:19,160 Speaker 1: not at all. I don't don't want to miss the thing. 1308 01:09:19,240 --> 01:09:24,320 Speaker 1: That was a terrible song. Greg. Finally, um, I think 1309 01:09:24,400 --> 01:09:26,200 Speaker 1: this was the first one, but I definitely remember it 1310 01:09:26,240 --> 01:09:29,960 Speaker 1: because it was so bad. I saw Legends of the Fall, 1311 01:09:30,320 --> 01:09:33,040 Speaker 1: all right. It was my freshman year of high school. 1312 01:09:33,040 --> 01:09:36,920 Speaker 1: It was exciting because my girlfriend was Hopkins and brads 1313 01:09:37,080 --> 01:09:40,240 Speaker 1: like he became. It was a terrible movie. Oh, I 1314 01:09:40,280 --> 01:09:43,280 Speaker 1: don't agree with that. That's how I remember. But it 1315 01:09:43,360 --> 01:09:46,040 Speaker 1: was exciting because because I was dating. I was a 1316 01:09:46,080 --> 01:09:50,200 Speaker 1: freshman and I was dating a junior. And I've seen 1317 01:09:50,280 --> 01:09:52,240 Speaker 1: pictures of you. You're in fourteen, you you were more 1318 01:09:52,320 --> 01:09:54,200 Speaker 1: muscular than you are now. She was. She had a 1319 01:09:54,280 --> 01:09:57,960 Speaker 1: car which was Beware Renault, which is a car that 1320 01:09:58,040 --> 01:10:01,240 Speaker 1: doesn't even exist anymore. Greg had really intimidating trap muscles 1321 01:10:01,280 --> 01:10:04,120 Speaker 1: when he was fourteen, developed the first State movie Don't 1322 01:10:04,160 --> 01:10:06,640 Speaker 1: go to a Brad Pitt film when he's just breaking out. 1323 01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:10,320 Speaker 1: It's like, I think, I think the opposite. I think 1324 01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:12,160 Speaker 1: that was why she wanted to go. You know, it's 1325 01:10:12,200 --> 01:10:15,880 Speaker 1: like to compare you to kind of like in the mood. 1326 01:10:16,920 --> 01:10:20,880 Speaker 1: He was already all right that I'm talking about dating 1327 01:10:20,920 --> 01:10:25,120 Speaker 1: the older girl. Good for you, all right, good job guys. 1328 01:10:26,240 --> 01:10:31,200 Speaker 1: Love to die for Nicole Kidman. Um, it obviously stuck 1329 01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:34,680 Speaker 1: with me. Sorry, no, no, that we're not gonna use 1330 01:10:34,800 --> 01:10:38,479 Speaker 1: names here. Um, you should beat that out. Yeah, it's 1331 01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:41,760 Speaker 1: going to get beat the Yeah to die for at 1332 01:10:41,760 --> 01:10:47,280 Speaker 1: the Pearl River Central Twin Theater. Since torn down, the 1333 01:10:47,400 --> 01:10:54,040 Speaker 1: memories stay, the structures go away. We'll be back on Thursday, Yeah, 1334 01:10:54,160 --> 01:10:56,679 Speaker 1: with a recap of the Thursday night game and maybe 1335 01:10:56,720 --> 01:11:00,120 Speaker 1: a decision on our relationship status of the Vikings. Probably not, 1336 01:11:00,240 --> 01:11:03,639 Speaker 1: though it's great. Shrugs shoulders gives a dismissive. I ral, 1337 01:11:04,120 --> 01:11:05,800 Speaker 1: we're not breaking up with them the day that they 1338 01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:08,479 Speaker 1: beat the Cowboys before, right before they beat the Cowboys. 1339 01:11:08,560 --> 01:11:10,200 Speaker 1: Come on, that would be funny to break up with 1340 01:11:10,240 --> 01:11:13,960 Speaker 1: them before a Cowboys dramatic Cowboys win. Yeah, so we'll 1341 01:11:14,040 --> 01:11:16,479 Speaker 1: recap that game and then preview all the week thirteen 1342 01:11:16,560 --> 01:11:21,240 Speaker 1: games until then.

It's Thursday and now a word with 1346 01:11:56,520 --> 01:12:03,240 Speaker 1: our sponsor. Born in Hans Roz was a Swedish medical doctor, academic, statician, 1347 01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:07,120 Speaker 1: and public speaker. He is currently the Professor of International 1348 01:12:07,200 --> 01:12:10,439 Speaker 1: Health at Karl Linsky Institute and co founder and chairman 1349 01:12:10,479 --> 01:12:14,120 Speaker 1: of the Gapminder Foundation. Rosling is a noted mind in 1350 01:12:14,160 --> 01:12:18,879 Speaker 1: the arena of developmental economics, and our friend and sponsor, 1351 01:12:19,120 --> 01:12:21,200 Speaker 1: Mr Flame is here with us today to talk a 1352 01:12:21,240 --> 01:12:24,880 Speaker 1: little Hans Rosling. Mr Epp, it's your birthday number one, 1353 01:12:24,960 --> 01:12:30,840 Speaker 1: Happy birthday, Thanks thanks Mark. I want to get right 1354 01:12:30,920 --> 01:12:33,960 Speaker 1: down to it. What makes Hans Rosling a central figure 1355 01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:38,719 Speaker 1: in the world of economic thought? Well, I think probably 1356 01:12:39,240 --> 01:12:41,720 Speaker 1: the most important thing about someone like Hans Rosling is 1357 01:12:41,800 --> 01:12:45,559 Speaker 1: that he brings to life the statistics that we teach 1358 01:12:45,720 --> 01:12:51,439 Speaker 1: in class. So frequently in an economics class um the 1359 01:12:51,600 --> 01:12:57,320 Speaker 1: statistics can seem dry or isolated in their applicability in 1360 01:12:57,360 --> 01:13:00,960 Speaker 1: the world. And and Hans Rosling does an amazing job 1361 01:13:01,800 --> 01:13:06,880 Speaker 1: with taking statistics and turning them into an explainable, interesting, 1362 01:13:07,040 --> 01:13:11,720 Speaker 1: dynamic presentation. And he's an amazing speaker. So I he's 1363 01:13:11,760 --> 01:13:13,960 Speaker 1: a professor of public health and I and I really 1364 01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:18,439 Speaker 1: enjoy his TED talks and met him once at a 1365 01:13:18,560 --> 01:13:22,560 Speaker 1: teacher conference, and he just was a really dynamic individual. 1366 01:13:23,240 --> 01:13:26,760 Speaker 1: And so I like his shows and presenting his shows 1367 01:13:26,760 --> 01:13:29,760 Speaker 1: to my kids to explain concepts with human development, UM 1368 01:13:29,840 --> 01:13:34,360 Speaker 1: and economic development, because they help bring the concepts alive. 1369 01:13:35,360 --> 01:13:37,679 Speaker 1: I I watched one of the TED talks, well about 1370 01:13:37,720 --> 01:13:40,040 Speaker 1: two minutes of it. Um got as much as I 1371 01:13:40,080 --> 01:13:42,920 Speaker 1: could out of it. Would that presentation, in your mind, 1372 01:13:42,960 --> 01:13:46,240 Speaker 1: have been better if the Today's Show's former host Jane 1373 01:13:46,280 --> 01:13:51,720 Speaker 1: Pauli had been moderating the production. Well, I don't know. 1374 01:13:52,000 --> 01:13:54,960 Speaker 1: I think it would make it a different show for sure. 1375 01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:57,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think they both would enjoy it, 1376 01:13:57,160 --> 01:14:00,720 Speaker 1: but I'm not certain if if I could answer that 1377 01:14:00,920 --> 01:14:04,080 Speaker 1: very well, He's so he was born in n not 1378 01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:06,840 Speaker 1: exactly a millennial or one who would be you know, 1379 01:14:07,160 --> 01:14:10,320 Speaker 1: the target to connect with millennials. But your class, um, 1380 01:14:10,560 --> 01:14:12,560 Speaker 1: are they? Is he? Is he a big Is he 1381 01:14:12,640 --> 01:14:14,599 Speaker 1: a big followship in your class? Are they a big 1382 01:14:14,680 --> 01:14:20,200 Speaker 1: fans of Hans Rosling? Actually it's surprising he does appeal. 1383 01:14:21,200 --> 01:14:24,040 Speaker 1: His shows are actually really his talks are really great 1384 01:14:24,120 --> 01:14:28,680 Speaker 1: on on on Ted. He's one of the foremost downloaded 1385 01:14:28,720 --> 01:14:32,320 Speaker 1: talks there. So yeah, I think students do like it. 1386 01:14:32,560 --> 01:14:35,160 Speaker 1: You know, the the idea of measuring a statistic is 1387 01:14:35,800 --> 01:14:39,200 Speaker 1: is really important in economics. We we've been measuring, for example, 1388 01:14:39,280 --> 01:14:43,280 Speaker 1: gross domestic products since the thirties extensively to try and 1389 01:14:43,400 --> 01:14:48,240 Speaker 1: get a handle on how our national economics, our national 1390 01:14:48,320 --> 01:14:51,639 Speaker 1: economy is doing. And we've also done sort of work 1391 01:14:51,720 --> 01:14:55,760 Speaker 1: since the nineties with Human Development Index in a mathematical 1392 01:14:55,880 --> 01:14:59,400 Speaker 1: way to analyze like how we're doing with how people 1393 01:14:59,720 --> 01:15:02,960 Speaker 1: are are their standard of living is measured, and so 1394 01:15:03,080 --> 01:15:06,840 Speaker 1: in isolation those statistics they don't mean very much. But 1395 01:15:07,040 --> 01:15:09,240 Speaker 1: when someone like Hans Roslin gets a hold of them, 1396 01:15:09,560 --> 01:15:11,200 Speaker 1: what he can do is he can bring to life. 1397 01:15:11,280 --> 01:15:15,120 Speaker 1: And so that's a great benefit to a teacher trying 1398 01:15:15,160 --> 01:15:18,200 Speaker 1: to explain something which in isolation might appear kind of boring. 1399 01:15:18,680 --> 01:15:20,920 Speaker 1: I read that when he was twenty there was something, 1400 01:15:21,160 --> 01:15:24,240 Speaker 1: you know, doctors diagnosed something wrong with his liver and 1401 01:15:24,280 --> 01:15:25,920 Speaker 1: he can never drink again. Do you think it's a 1402 01:15:25,960 --> 01:15:29,120 Speaker 1: good idea for um economists, especially economists in the in 1403 01:15:29,200 --> 01:15:31,839 Speaker 1: the Netherlands or in in you know, outside of America, 1404 01:15:31,920 --> 01:15:36,120 Speaker 1: to stay sober? Oh? Oh, I I know. I think 1405 01:15:36,200 --> 01:15:38,640 Speaker 1: that's a great tragedy that would be too bad if 1406 01:15:38,680 --> 01:15:40,240 Speaker 1: they tried to do that. They'd miss out on a 1407 01:15:40,320 --> 01:15:43,240 Speaker 1: lot of the benefit of living over here and close 1408 01:15:43,320 --> 01:15:47,600 Speaker 1: to Belgium with their famous beer brewing. And hopefully my 1409 01:15:47,680 --> 01:15:50,120 Speaker 1: students don't listen to this particular episode because we should 1410 01:15:50,120 --> 01:15:52,960 Speaker 1: be studying, get back to work. They really should. I know. Also, 1411 01:15:53,160 --> 01:15:54,880 Speaker 1: you know, just from talking to you a little bit 1412 01:15:55,360 --> 01:15:58,640 Speaker 1: um over email in in Facebook, that you are an 1413 01:15:58,720 --> 01:16:01,679 Speaker 1: avid bicyclist in the Nigue, in the Hague, the Netherlands. 1414 01:16:01,880 --> 01:16:05,560 Speaker 1: Would you describe yourself as anti car anti automobile are you? 1415 01:16:05,720 --> 01:16:09,080 Speaker 1: Is it some sort of movement that you're starting. I 1416 01:16:09,240 --> 01:16:11,960 Speaker 1: think I think it was probably when we moved here, 1417 01:16:12,520 --> 01:16:14,840 Speaker 1: we we didn't want to buy a car because they're 1418 01:16:14,840 --> 01:16:18,280 Speaker 1: pretty expensive. But boy, it is an amazing way of 1419 01:16:18,400 --> 01:16:20,880 Speaker 1: life to be able to ride your bike in Holland 1420 01:16:20,920 --> 01:16:23,320 Speaker 1: on the in the Netherlands on the on the bike paths. 1421 01:16:23,439 --> 01:16:27,760 Speaker 1: They are an amazing Uh. National infrastructure is incredible. You 1422 01:16:27,800 --> 01:16:31,519 Speaker 1: can go anywhere at any time and you're safe on 1423 01:16:31,680 --> 01:16:35,040 Speaker 1: the roads. So it is fantastic. And you are you've 1424 01:16:35,080 --> 01:16:37,519 Speaker 1: been out of the states for some time. You don't uh, 1425 01:16:37,840 --> 01:16:40,240 Speaker 1: you don't seem to appear on paper anywhere in terms 1426 01:16:40,280 --> 01:16:43,720 Speaker 1: of owning an automobile. Are you potentially are you on 1427 01:16:43,840 --> 01:16:46,720 Speaker 1: the run yourself from the US government or something here 1428 01:16:46,720 --> 01:16:49,760 Speaker 1: in the United States. I'm not not not as far 1429 01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:52,040 Speaker 1: as I know. I'm paying my taxes, I'm taking care 1430 01:16:52,080 --> 01:16:54,559 Speaker 1: of stuff on that. On that end, very good.
