30
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:32,320
Speaker 1: Their fomenting dissent and I don't like it. That's like

31
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 1: when whenever we do a mail bag, guaranteed at least

32
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: five questions like who would win in a fight between

33
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 1: the four of you? It's like always like what can

34
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,640

Speaker 1: wait till we were actually successful and we're making some money,

36
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: then we will hate each other. There would never be

37
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:52,760

38
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,080

Speaker 1: So we will dig into some news coming out of

67
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: those UH games, some of them pretty wild obviously. UM.

68
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 1: I was able to watch most of them from the

69
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 1: Dominican Republic. They air on non h D television and

70
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 1: the resort I was staying at. But I did get

71
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: to catch up once I got home Sunday night, so

72
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: I can talk with you guys about that game with

73
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 1: some semblance of knowledge, not at a scientist level, but

74
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: I'll do my best. Will also start looking ahead to

75
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: the Divisional round and I think I don't know if

76
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 1: it's something you've said, Greg, but I certainly agree with

77
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: whose ever sentiment it is best weekend of the year

78
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 1: Divisional round playoffs. You got all these like you get

79
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 1: rid of kind of the bump playoff teams and now

80
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,719
Speaker 1: you've got a nice stable of stud teams going at

81
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 1: it for the chance to play UH in the final

82
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 1: game in February. So always some classics. Think back to

83
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 1: last year you had Packers Cowboys, which is a good

84
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: game marred by a bad call. You had Ravens Patriots,

85
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 1: which one of the best games going, and then you

86
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: always have like one big upset, and last year that

87
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 1: was the Broncos going. If any season ever needed it,

88
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: it's this season because it's been a lot of bad football.

89
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 1: This was not a great wild Car weekend. So yeah,

90
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: they'll make up for it. I would be a little nervous,

91
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,840
Speaker 1: Greig about that one big upset occurring, you know, off

92
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 1: the mass Pike up there in New England. Shocker. Uh

93
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,799
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, just listen, this is a live

94
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: in the future looking at Gillette Stadium, you know, in

95
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: their little shopping mall where a football field is. Let's agony.

96
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,840
Speaker 1: They would if if the Paget's really lost, it would

97
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 1: just be silence. Everyone would be out by the middle

98
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,119
Speaker 1: of the fourth quarter. Shot fire against your own fan base.

99
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 1: Uh so, yes, six mysteries of the divisional round. We'll

100
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: talk about. West wrote a really good piece only around

101
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 1: the NFL page. She'll'll dig into that and uh talk

102
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: about some of the mysteries that lie ahead this weekend,

103
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 1: and we're gonna try something. I am almost certain, even

104
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:31,919
Speaker 1: though it was my idea, I'm almost certain it was

105
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 1: a bad one listener phone calls. We put it out

106
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 1: there Sydney, who's just awesome work behind the glass. I'm

107
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 1: sure Sydney likes it better when Colleen's hosting because she's

108
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 1: not getting bombarded with requests forty one minutes before the

109
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 1: show starts as I did today. But Sidney rounded up

110
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: some great listeners who wanted to either ask a question

111
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 1: or make a comment, and we'll try this out. It

112
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 1: most likely will go terribly either logistically or just the

113
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: you know, the conversation, but we'll give it a shot.

114
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 1: That's the Around the NFL podcast for Tuesday's presented by

115
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 1: Scott Trade. So let's get to it, and we'll start

116
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 1: by going behind the glass and formally saying hello to Sydney. Hey, guys,

117
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 1: how's it going. Hi? Did you miss me? I did

118
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,159
Speaker 1: miss you. I will say it was nice to have

119
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 1: a little another girl around because I'm severely outnumbered. It's

120
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 1: tough being in the sports media landscape as you are,

121
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 1: and you're a rising star, not even joking around. Sydney

122
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 1: is awesome at what she does, uh and and she does.

123
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: She brings, she reps for the ladies. That's a little slangy.

124
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: That's a lot of pressure. But yeah, let's do some news. Sure, Oh,

125
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: I think you need a Grammy Award? Who is that?

126
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: That was pac Man Adam Jones saying, uh, Antonio Brown

127
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: deserved the Grammy Award for his acting performance. So he

128
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: called Joe Parter Jerry Porter, which was hilarious and he

129
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 1: and he said, uh that Antonio Brown needs a Grammy

130
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: And Antonio Brown had a great response on Twitter. He

131
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: had some sort of picture of him singing out a

132
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 1: microphone that is I would just like to say once

133
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 1: an idiot. Oh, he's an idiot because he had literally

134
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: a seventy five percent chance of getting it right, because

135
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 1: he said he could have said oscar, which would have

136
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,679
Speaker 1: been fine. That's not even the part I'm talking about

137
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: acting like he's faking a concussion the second time. He

138
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 1: could have said Emmy, that would have been right. Could

139
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 1: have said Tony jar that would have worked, That would

140
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 1: have been right, could have said Golden globe. So he

141
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 1: had an eighty percent chance, and yet he said Grammy, No,

142
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 1: No narrative of mine has crashed more than the Adam

143
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 1: Jones rejuvenation season that he had this year. And in

144
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 1: uh in spectacular. That wasn't even a narrative. He had

145
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: a good season. Well, let's talk about We'll start with

146
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 1: talking about his teammate Bantes Perfect, who of course had

147
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: the hit on Antonio Brown over the middle. Uh that,

148
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: and we'll talk about Adam Jones as well. Um. He

149
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 1: referred to it as some type of acting job. But

150
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 1: the truth of the matter is that Antonio Brown was

151
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: um you know, diagnosed with a concussion on the play

152
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: and it was um perfix you know. Not the first

153
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 1: time he's been labeled a dirty player, and the NFL

154
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 1: announced Monday that they were fed up with it. They

155
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: said that he had been suspended without pay for the

156
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 1: first three games of the regular season for quote, repeated

157
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: violations of safety related playing rules. Let's start there. He's

158
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: gonna appeal it. In fact, he has appealed it. Um

159
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: uh do you think that was fair to do? That?

160
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,199
Speaker 1: Is Perfect, the guy that needed this type of discipline,

161
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: He got off easy. What are you talking about? This

162
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 1: guy is a threat to the health of every other

163
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 1: player on the field, including his teammates. He's out of control,

164
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: He's over the line, and if Marvin Lewis isn't gonna

165
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,719
Speaker 1: stop him, the NFL needs to That's like a that

166
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: was a good like Mike f there. This guy is

167
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 1: a dirty, dirty player who needs to be punished. Put

168
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:12,199
Speaker 1: this heat on NFL network. I like it. Wes uh,

169
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 1: you know, I'm just saying, if you're counting it about it.

170
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 1: He knocked the three best dealers players out of games

171
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: this year, all three of them Levan Bell, Antonio Brown,

172
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 1: and Big Bend. He got fined. It also flew under

173
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,319
Speaker 1: the radar when they announced this. He got fined for

174
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 1: a hit on Max Williams, the Ravens tight end, in

175
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,200
Speaker 1: the season finale, and they announced that yesterday too. He

176
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,719
Speaker 1: the Panthers called for his suspension last year because he

177
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,839
Speaker 1: got caught twisting ankles after the whistle on Cam Newton

178
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 1: and Greg Olson. This is what he does. It's his

179
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,559
Speaker 1: m O. And look, he's a throwback to the fifties

180
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 1: when that stuff was encouraged and allowed, and TV wasn't

181
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,959
Speaker 1: out there, and the sport wasn't popular because America knew

182
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,240
Speaker 1: that it was too violent and there had to be restrictions.

183
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 1: The NFL has restrictions now. He has to play under

184
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: the rules. You've con to me. At first, I thought, yeah,

185
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 1: At first, I thought, you know, three games is a lot.

186
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,960
Speaker 1: What's the precedent. Aren't there other dirty players in dirty

187
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 1: plays happening all the time. He hasn't even been suspended

188
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 1: one game, so I'm thinking back to Brandon Merryweather who

189
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 1: got one game, remember, and then he got too and

190
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 1: that was eliminated upon it is a certified head owner

191
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 1: like Perfect, But Perfect does dirty stuff after the whistle

192
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: continually that that's totally fair. And there was a vine

193
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 1: out there of him doing it on Big Ben's shoulder

194
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 1: injury hit, so that's all fair. And they definitely referred

195
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: to his history that it was a repeat offender and

196
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: that's why he got it. It's amazing though, if you

197
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 1: think about it, If Jeremy Hill doesn't fumble that ball,

198
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 1: so many things are different. I guess that's obvious. But

199
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 1: Perfect would have been the hero. They had the game

200
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 1: on NFL Network yesterday while we were at work and

201
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: I'm watching the game. Perfect had an incredible game capped

202
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,480
Speaker 1: by an incredible inner sception that would have been one

203
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: of the plays of the century for the Bengals. I mean,

204
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 1: he peeled off one guy in a zone, kind of

205
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 1: tricked Landry Jones then comes back an amazingly athletic play,

206
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 1: intercepts the ball and if Jeremy Hill just holds onto

207
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,719
Speaker 1: the ball or the Bengals get the first round there

208
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: perfect is an absolute hero. He's playing this week, He's

209
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,320
Speaker 1: certainly playing the next three games of next season and

210
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 1: in at all and they probably heard someone this week too.

211
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 1: He's a phenomenal player. He had a great game that game.

212
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 1: He had a great game in the regular season finale.

213
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 1: He was coming into his own recapturing the for me

214
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: and when he was their best defensive player before his

215
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 1: knee injury. It's just a shame that he can't get

216
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 1: under control. And Adam Jones, as we were just talking about,

217
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 1: this is what he had to say to the Dan

218
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 1: Patrick Show on Monday morning about the hit back can

219
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 1: cust Antonio Brown and left his availability and and some uh,

220
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: some doubt for U Divisional round weekend. Here's the quote. Nah,

221
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,680
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown was not hurt. I know he was faking it.

222
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 1: Go back and look at the play. If you go

223
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: back and slow motion, yes, go on, ad him. You

224
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 1: tell me Vante has hit him in the head or

225
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 1: if his shoulder pads barely touched him. What are you

226
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 1: talking about, bro, That's he's an idiot. Doctor, an idiot

227
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:15,839
Speaker 1: the doctor's outline. That's insane. I mean, that's more. And

228
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 1: Bengals fans, of course believing pac Man Jones on this

229
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 1: that Antonio Brown is faking beans and and I hope

230
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 1: they start thinking for themselves. Please. His eyes were rolling

231
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 1: into the back of his head. The camera showed it.

232
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 1: I mean, not that we even he's even to defend

233
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 1: the reality of the situation, which is that, by the way,

234
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown is not expected to even play this week.

235
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: So if it's all an acting job, the Steelers are

236
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 1: are doing some strange things for it. It's crazy. And

237
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna cost Adam Jones money. It's not

238
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 1: that big of a deal. But I don't think the

239
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 1: Bengals are going to resign him now, even though he

240
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: had a great season for them. He's a free agent

241
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: and I gotta think they'll just be like, he's thirty

242
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 1: five years old, it's is time to move on. You know,

243
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 1: we got more out of Adam Jones than you would

244
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 1: have ever expected. And if they don't resign him, how

245
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,320
Speaker 1: many teams out there are gonna really want to dive

246
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: into the Adam Jones experience at thirty five years old.

247
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,079
Speaker 1: I was thinking about I was thinking about that after

248
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 1: after the game, and just like you know how you

249
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 1: know in the playoffs, it's changes everything. The stage is

250
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 1: so big. It's how you're remembered. It really can define

251
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 1: a career. And when you do something like he did

252
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 1: in this game, and it's really how he's gonna be remembered.

253
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 1: Despite all the good things he's done in Cincinnati as

254
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 1: a player. Um, I I think he could have a

255
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 1: hard market. I could I I could see the Bengals

256
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 1: be like, we don't want it you here anymore after

257
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: what you did in the biggest game of the year.

258
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:45,560
Speaker 1: He's in trouble. Marvin lewis his he's already started on

259
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 1: his offseason program that you have to have more poise.

260
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 1: This is an area of emphasis because it has to

261
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 1: be for that team. And why would you resign pat

262
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 1: Man Jones If that's your priority? All right, then we'll

263
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: look over the Steelers now. And Ben Roethlisberger uh spoke

264
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 1: to a Pittsburgh area radio station, Katie k A in

265
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh about his shoulder injury. And you know, Ben likes

266
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 1: to explain, uh to the media and the fans what

267
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 1: is wrong with him exactly. You could read into that

268
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 1: however you like. But he did disclose on Tuesday that,

269
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 1: in addition to the Um sprained a c joint, which

270
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 1: Ian and Albert Brier both reported earlier this week, he

271
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 1: also does have torn ligaments in that throwing shoulder. Um

272
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 1: and admitted and acknowledge that he has not even touched

273
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 1: the football since that fourth quarter drive to beat Cincinnati.

274
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 1: Uh So, he made it sound like he was unsure

275
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 1: about whether he'll play on Sunday. Mike Tomlin. Mike Tomlin

276
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 1: sounds because you got to build up the biggest drama possible,

277
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: because it's a big Ben's move and he's been using

278
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: it for ten years. It's always been funny to me

279
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 1: that the dichotomy between the tough physically toughest quarterback in

280
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 1: the NFL and the need to tell everyone and how

281
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 1: banged up you are and to drag as much drama

282
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 1: out of it as possible. Are you noticing a lot

283
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 1: of fire? I love it. I love it. You are

284
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: fired up? Mr Wesley. What's about me? West of this came?

285
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 1: I mean, the afterglow is right now, like my like

286
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 1: a child, like my child, ellis after Christmas. So it's

287
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 1: not just about Chris. It's about the day after Christmas

288
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 1: playing with those toys, the next day playing with those toys.

289
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 1: And west of this you should have got Castle Skull exactly.

290
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 1: He was here on Sunday night. And uh, if you

291
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 1: go back and listen, Dan, just go to the Bengal

292
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 1: Steelers segment that was. It was a great conversation. And

293
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 1: West was just ride and high because it was the

294
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 1: greatest West of Us he ever could have had. It

295
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 1: was a west of his miracle. I am still riding

296
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 1: high and I might this might carry me through two.

297
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 1: Don't you remember what we were talking about? Yeah, so

298
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 1: what I guess you guys, You guys sound confident that

299
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: this is all part of the Ben act, the Ben

300
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 1: play that he goes through. How about you a swich.

301
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 1: If he doesn't play, well, that's fine, But is he

302
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 1: going to be the Ben Roethlisberger that we love to

303
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: watch throwing down the field. If he doesn't have an

304
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 1: Tonio Brown that that first hurts, and if he's not

305
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 1: throwing the deep ball that takes away you know, his

306
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 1: biggest asset. Let's not forget the Steelers season was on

307
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 1: the line, and they put Landry Jones out there for

308
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 1: that under two minutes, right, But if Big Ben sitting

309
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 1: there in the helmet the first drive, that's true. He

310
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 1: did come out there. The PR director, by the way,

311
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: reported through their Twitter that Ben is coming back on

312
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 1: the field. He's gonna give it a go. But it

313
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: didn't happen, and then one thirty eight to go they

314
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 1: go with Landry Jones on it. That was the thing

315
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 1: I couldn't figure out or whatever. It was amazing that

316
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 1: if it's not for the hill fumble again, Landry Jones

317
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: would have taken that last thing and we never would

318
00:16:58,120 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: have known that Ben could have played. So I gotta

319
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 1: think it's pretty banged up and he can't throw the ball.

320
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to dismiss the amount of pain he's

321
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,960
Speaker 1: in that he's always like he could have said, spring

322
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,479
Speaker 1: a C jointing. He's thrown in the torn ligaments. Just

323
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,159
Speaker 1: so you know and you appreciate how tough he is

324
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 1: once he comes out and leads the Steelers to an upset,

325
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 1: I'm just wondering, And so he's gonna be out there.

326
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 1: We don't know if the angela Williams is going to

327
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,879
Speaker 1: be out there, and I don't know if Old Jerry

328
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 1: Porter is gonna be out there or or Joey Porter,

329
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,439
Speaker 1: because they might suspend Maybe they'll suspend Joey Porter for

330
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 1: all the you know, grief that Adam Jones took. Uh,

331
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 1: he had a right to be upset because they were.

332
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 1: They were annoyed by Porter going into the game. And

333
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 1: I think that seems like a kind of an idiot too.

334
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 1: I mean, heat, do you remember I can't remember who

335
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 1: had the pick six earlier? William William Gay and he's

336
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 1: crawling on the field that exaggerated uh celebration and he's

337
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 1: got Andrew Whitworth he um. You know. He came out

338
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,159
Speaker 1: and said that he before a game the season, he

339
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:57,440
Speaker 1: was like on at midfield, mother fffing everyone on the field. Uh,

340
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 1: he shouldn't have been on the field during that moment

341
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 1: of the game in the wild, like he could easily

342
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 1: got in the flag and ruined their season. Paul Gunter,

343
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,640
Speaker 1: the defensive coordinator, what did he called? He called Porter

344
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 1: a clown basically embarrassment and ment words at all. You

345
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 1: don't really hear that too often come embarrassments of coaching profession.

346
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 1: Let us now move over. Uh, we are out of now.

347
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 1: I think we're out of hot butt season. Now there's

348
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 1: one sizzling in Detroit, sizzling posterior. I don't really like

349
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 1: I just remembered. I don't really like these images. This

350
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:33,440
Speaker 1: just imagine I mentioned the heat rising up under the buttocks,

351
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,120
Speaker 1: and you're just not comfortable because your your butt it's

352
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: super hot. You got a hot butt, and you might

353
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,920
Speaker 1: get fired. You're talking about Jim Caldwell. Jim Caldwell, it's

354
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:46,679
Speaker 1: very hot right now. Oh, I can't smell good. New

355
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 1: general manager. Uh you know, has his press conference hired

356
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,879
Speaker 1: from the Patriots in Detroit. They asked him about it,

357
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 1: and he goes with the oh, I have a lot

358
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 1: of respect for Jim called goodbye. It just it just

359
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,200
Speaker 1: sounded like it's a matter, it's time and and can

360
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: you really see a guy from the Patriots organization thinking, Okay,

361
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: let's keep called well, let's keep the guy from the Colts.

362
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 1: I don't know, I just don't. It just doesn't seem

363
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 1: to mess. It's not there. Jim Caldwell is not a

364
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 1: Patriots kind of guy, so he stays in that job

365
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,959
Speaker 1: until the Patriots are knocked out the playoffs and they

366
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,240
Speaker 1: get Josh McDaniels. Now I think he's fired this week.

367
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 1: I think I think I think we could we could

368
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 1: get a three or four graph shorty up, you know,

369
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 1: get it ready, because I think the odds right now

370
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 1: and I'm not on a limb here. Ian Rapp Report

371
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,159
Speaker 1: or NFL media insider said he's on thin ice. He

372
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,080
Speaker 1: thinks he's gonna go. You know what that respect gets

373
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:41,800
Speaker 1: Jim Caldwell. He gets a sit down privately where the

374
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: owner tells him he's fired, as opposed to being leaked

375
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,639
Speaker 1: to like an insider like rap Sheet. First, there's the respect.

376
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,360
Speaker 1: I could be wrong, what do I I'm this base.

377
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 1: I'm just guessing here, but it just seems like a

378
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 1: weird marriage that a Patriots GM guy is gonna keep called. Well,

379
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: you're allowed to deduce. Speaking of weird marriages, the San

380
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 1: Francisco forty Niners are set to meet with I'm coughlin,

381
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 1: the former Giants coach who was not kidding when he

382
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 1: said he wanted to continue his career um despite being

383
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:10,399
Speaker 1: sixty nine years old. UM. He is meeting with the

384
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,160
Speaker 1: with the Niners on Tuesday, according to rap Sheet Coughlin

385
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 1: had met with the Eagles on Monday, and that would

386
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 1: be that would just be bizarre if Tom Coughlin was

387
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 1: on the sideline with the Eagles during one of those

388
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 1: NFC East m rival tilts with the Giants. Don't think

389
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,679
Speaker 1: Big Blue fans would like to see that. It'd be awesome,

390
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 1: is what it'd be. I hope that's what happens. Just

391
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 1: seems weird. Is Coughlin really gonna be able to win

392
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:38,440
Speaker 1: there quickly? That's a strange situation. Eagles sounds great. I

393
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 1: mean our our friend, uh, Colleen Wolfe's husband, John Gonzalez.

394
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 1: I'm just thinking of his tweet when when they were

395
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 1: talking about like the Coughlin interview, it just said, please please, please,

396
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 1: please please, because this is exactly what the Eagles media wants.

397
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 1: It's a great story. Root for the story there. He's

398
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 1: a good coach. I'd like to see good coaches still

399
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 1: doing the job. Also that that Eagles beat writer that

400
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:00,920
Speaker 1: draws all the cartoons stick figures would probably have a

401
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:05,080
Speaker 1: lot of fun time. Oh, Jimmie Kemski kemsco Yeah, he

402
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 1: would have fun. Another coaching news Terrell Prior would like

403
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,439
Speaker 1: the Browns the hire Hugh Jackson. Hey Trrell, you know,

404
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 1: just be happy if a roster spoby fight down a

405
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: little bit. He knows he's gonna be back in Cleveland.

406
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 1: Tarrell Pryor, who I think the wide receiver maybe is

407
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 1: the third strink quarterback. I have this to say every

408
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 1: day when I woke up in Oakland, when during their

409
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 1: time together in Oakland, I was like, man, I gotta

410
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,159
Speaker 1: get to work. I wasn't even playing in two thousand

411
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 1: eleven when he was head coach, and you're always you

412
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,640
Speaker 1: don't always feel a part of things, but Hugh made

413
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,440
Speaker 1: it fun every single time. He would be a great choice.

414
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: I can tell you that the Browns are obviously it

415
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 1: seems like they're very hot for Hugh. And I'll throw

416
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:47,119
Speaker 1: out a hashtag hot for you, hot for you. I

417
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,199
Speaker 1: will throw this out there, um, because there is a

418
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,160
Speaker 1: report also out there. I believe from rap sheet that

419
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 1: you know the Giants want to meet with you, um

420
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:59,400
Speaker 1: as well. If you're Hugh Jackson, why would you ever

421
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 1: take the Oune job if you had a chance to

422
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,680
Speaker 1: get the Giants job. It just wouldn't makes sense to me.

423
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,159
Speaker 1: I know it's getting a job, it's hard, but I

424
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 1: would play it out a little bit. If I was

425
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 1: Hugh and not dive into that Cleveland job, if I

426
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:13,879
Speaker 1: had a chance to get one of the best coach

427
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 1: jobs in the league. In my opinion, maybe he's trying

428
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 1: to enter the Ohio Sports History Hall of Fame. That's right.

429
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 1: Sessler did make the point last week that the Browns

430
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:25,879
Speaker 1: have the most potential to be a hero and have

431
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 1: a football life about you, because the man that turns

432
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 1: around the Browns will be a hero. But there's a

433
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,360
Speaker 1: reason why it hasn't happened. You're right, the job isn't

434
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:37,399
Speaker 1: as good. But Hugh Jackson, Tom Coughlin, I think you

435
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 1: know they're the they're the big names in this coaching search.

436
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,640
Speaker 1: But there is no hot coaching commodity. There's no guy

437
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 1: that's like, we gotta get him signed now. They've all

438
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,400
Speaker 1: been out there now for a week plus, they've all

439
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 1: had multiple interviews. Mike Silver, who's very close with Hugh Jackson, says,

440
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 1: no one, no one's offered Hugh Jackson a job. It's

441
00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,160
Speaker 1: not that he's choosing, it's not that he's leveraging one.

442
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,199
Speaker 1: No one's given him an offer. And that makes a

443
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 1: lot of sense because I think if the Browns really

444
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,640
Speaker 1: wanted Hugh Jackson, they'd offer him the job and he'd

445
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,359
Speaker 1: probably take it, because you don't know what you're gonna

446
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 1: get in New York, the same reason why Rex took

447
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 1: the Bills job last year, because it was there, and

448
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 1: I think he would take the first job that he got.

449
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 1: So I think we've got a game of musical chairs

450
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: here where none of the coaches and none of the

451
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 1: landing spots are all that attractive, so they're all leaving

452
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 1: their options open, like the dating world for over thirty

453
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:31,399
Speaker 1: year olds in the tender era like that. Well, the

454
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 1: Eagles and Giants are fine jobs, but I think in

455
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:35,959
Speaker 1: their mind they just want to be thorough and they

456
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 1: want to take their time. They were in no hurry

457
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 1: because none of these. They can live without any of these.

458
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,720
Speaker 1: Since well since West cracked open the door. What's going

459
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 1: on in your dating life right now? Christ? Well, I'm

460
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 1: I don't really want to sit it out. I don't

461
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 1: want to say there's something good going on, But I

462
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,200
Speaker 1: don't want to say something good. I don't want to

463
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 1: do Today's January twelve. By the way, January twelve, the

464
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 1: anniversesary of Super Bowl three, the last time the Jets

465
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:05,639
Speaker 1: made the Super Bowl of victory over the Baltimore Coulson.

466
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,399
Speaker 1: Let me tell you something, guys, Joe guaranteed it. Wow.

467
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:10,639
Speaker 1: You know what. It's also the anniversary of now that

468
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: we're on the topic, but my son's birth one year.

469
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 1: Way to make it through a year? Good job. That

470
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,280
Speaker 1: is great. I love it. And I did not realize

471
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:23,440
Speaker 1: that he was born on the Jets Super Bowl Day,

472
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:28,399
Speaker 1: foreshadowing that he will break the Jets long slide or

473
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,919
Speaker 1: break my heart and be a Jets fan. You never know,

474
00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:34,640
Speaker 1: he'll break his own heart if he does that. Where

475
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 1: were we any other? Oh? Rob Bryan by the way,

476
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,159
Speaker 1: did we talk about this on Sunday? Okay, he's on

477
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:46,440
Speaker 1: Rex Ryan's staff. He's hired as an assistant coach. Uh

478
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 1: and that seems like a weird move, um destined for failure? Well,

479
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: you could you could make the point that they both

480
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 1: you know, who's gonna try harder than the Ryan brothers both,

481
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 1: there's so much to prove this year. You said it, well,

482
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 1: I think Dan, it seems uh, it seems like there

483
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,560
Speaker 1: will be a memorable It will be great memories for them,

484
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,359
Speaker 1: and you can understand it personally, and yet it just

485
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:13,159
Speaker 1: seems like a recipe. And twenty years they'll be on

486
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,360
Speaker 1: a lake drinking beer together, talking about their two thousand six.

487
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 1: Well there's something to that if you and your brother

488
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 1: were both you know, big time coaches in the league.

489
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 1: Who knows, I mean, this might be Rex Ryan's last head.

490
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 1: They're just like, of course they want to do that

491
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:32,080
Speaker 1: kind of stuff. I worry about Rob Ryan's um presence,

492
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 1: day to day presence, how it will affect Rex Ryan's

493
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:44,199
Speaker 1: body potential. But Rob's plugged in, like he has a

494
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,359
Speaker 1: good time and likes to eat. Now Rex and Roy

495
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,480
Speaker 1: will be together, We'll will Rex be able to stick

496
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 1: to his diet with Rob there, who could be a

497
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 1: bad influence. These are the things I'm tracking more than anything.

498
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 1: What's the science on the stapling thing? Isn't it that

499
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 1: you can't really become You're not hungry, You're not hungry enough,

500
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,639
Speaker 1: you can't fill it up. Yeah, but Rob Bryan is

501
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 1: force nature. I saw him at a Chick fil A

502
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 1: in the Indianapolis Airport last February, and that guy, he

503
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 1: even even when he orders fast food, it's like fun

504
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,520
Speaker 1: and boisters. I could see Rex getting sucked back into

505
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 1: the world around Santa Monica. I'd be great. We should

506
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 1: have him in on the podcast now that I would like. Uh, finally,

507
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:27,440
Speaker 1: in the news, I'm in on that totally. Um big news,

508
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 1: big big news. Here the headline, the source here tmz

509
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: dot com. But you can also see it on Instagram

510
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 1: and if you if you watched the Golden Globes on it.

511
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 1: Oh nos, the n C Double A Championship game a

512
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:48,720
Speaker 1: little sideline during Alabama Clemson. Here's the headline from TMZ. Jewel.

513
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:54,399
Speaker 1: I'm dating a hot NFL quarterback, and that quarterback. Ladies

514
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:58,399
Speaker 1: and gentlemen, there's no other than friend. Well we've never

515
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,479
Speaker 1: met him, but we have no idea. Doesn't know who

516
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:06,639
Speaker 1: we are. He is clipboard Jesus Charlie Whitehurst. My goodness,

517
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:10,359
Speaker 1: How did this not happen sooner? It makes so much sense. Well,

518
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,720
Speaker 1: the crumbs were there for us for years and years,

519
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: Jewel laid them out. Now Glycine, which is the theme

520
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,919
Speaker 1: song with Charlie Whitehurst according to you, according to me,

521
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 1: but he has a guitar and he's learning how to

522
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:27,640
Speaker 1: play it. Released in nineteen six, Right Jules album Went

523
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:34,399
Speaker 1: Nuts and this song you're listening to right now, listen

524
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: to this line dark eyes, careless hair, fastly, sensitive but cool,

525
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 1: too cool to care? When was that written? Though? Like,

526
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:54,280
Speaker 1: but she was like Jewel is She's about forty. Jewel

527
00:27:54,520 --> 00:28:00,439
Speaker 1: is west You and I we've tied an immense shown her.

528
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,359
Speaker 1: We've talked about Jewel on this podcast. Why does it

529
00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,679
Speaker 1: matter how old she is? No? No, My point was

530
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 1: when she wrote those lyrics, what was Charlie Whitehurst doing?

531
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:10,879
Speaker 1: You know he was like in high school. It was

532
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:12,399
Speaker 1: in the stars, is what I'm saying. It was in

533
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:16,040
Speaker 1: the cosmic all along, and the crumbs of of this

534
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 1: moment were laid out there for us to follow. But

535
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:20,879
Speaker 1: how it would have been hard to follow? It's an

536
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 1: amazing development. Now if you saw a headline on TMZ

537
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,680
Speaker 1: take the Jewel aspect, because I think we all agreed

538
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 1: Jewel and Charlie white Hurst are meant to begether? What

539
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 1: is her? What's her first thought? You were meant for me?

540
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,160
Speaker 1: Maybe that's about him. Her first single was who Will

541
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 1: Save Your Soul? But if you saw Jewel, you just

542
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 1: saw like pop star. Basically, I'm dating a hot NFL quarterback?

543
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 1: How many quarterbacks? If you were just blind guessing would

544
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 1: you have to guess before you got to Charlie white Hurst.

545
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 1: I don't know how many of how many were named

546
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 1: sexiest man of Nashville exactly. I would it would be

547
00:28:55,720 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 1: really okay. I don't think like hot NFL quarterbacks Drew

548
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,360
Speaker 1: Stanton and then the hot thing doesn't throw me off

549
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 1: the NFL quarterback thing because people people think of when

550
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,720
Speaker 1: you think of NFL quarterbacks immediately. It's great, though this

551
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,800
Speaker 1: probably won't work out, Let's be honest. It's just it's

552
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 1: it's tough for celebrities and clipboard Jesus is a huge

553
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 1: one and Jewel to stay together. But if this begins

554
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 1: to push Charlie down the road that I'm hoping the

555
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:30,480
Speaker 1: Jesse Palmer road where he's on The Bachelor, this will

556
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:32,720
Speaker 1: all come together. Or maybe he'll fall in love with

557
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 1: Jewel and will be together forever. That'd be great too.

558
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,640
Speaker 1: We're happy for for Charlie. It's one of the biggest

559
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 1: stories of the year. If these two kids can't make it,

560
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 1: what kind of hope does that give the rest of us?

561
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 1: And uh, one last note, I didn't want to miss it. Uh.

562
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick showed up at his press conference UM on

563
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 1: Tuesday with a shiner, h a black guy and Greg,

564
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 1: I wanna ask you a peace scale. How nervous does

565
00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 1: this to make you? That he has Bill Belichick the

566
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:04,600
Speaker 1: hooded one um, the man that is, you know, impenetrable

567
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 1: now showing signs of wear and tear physically ahead of

568
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 1: the playoffs. It makes me feel great. He's in fighting mood.

569
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 1: That's when he's at his best. He's whoever gave him

570
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 1: this shiner is gonna pay. The Chiefs are gonna pay

571
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 1: for whoever gave Bill Belichick this shiner exactly. I like it.

572
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 1: He's a feisty I want to fight the angry Belichick.

573
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 1: Did anybody have the onions to ask what happened? Yeah,

574
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 1: they asked him. He said, you know, he didn't think

575
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:36,920
Speaker 1: they had to disclose the reason on the injury report

576
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 1: or something some crack like that. Seeing the other guy,

577
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 1: he didn't say anything that was what happened. Well, he

578
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 1: wouldn't say, all right, let's get what are the possibilities

579
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,720
Speaker 1: for getting a blackouts? He was either in a fight, right,

580
00:30:52,840 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 1: he fell, or he murdered someone horsing around with his kids, grandkids?

581
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,719
Speaker 1: Would he doesn't horse around? I don't know there's not

582
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 1: a lot of options of what he could have done.

583
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 1: But if he was fixing something on his boat and

584
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 1: a pulley came and hit him in the face, he says,

585
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:12,240
Speaker 1: I think. He just says, I think I'll live. I

586
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 1: don't think we need to list coaches on the injury report.

587
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 1: I'm sure for quiet to we'll do it. Blow Hard,

588
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 1: just tell us what happened. I'm gonna get to the bottle.

589
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 1: I'm loving this. Dan convinces himself to pick against the

590
00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:30,720
Speaker 1: Patriots in the playoffs again. It's almost like and the Bengals.

591
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 1: I said on Network Greg that uh are a network

592
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 1: hit that we tape today, that you're a little worried

593
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 1: that this is gonna be like that game against the

594
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: Ravens in two thousand nine that pot was dog that

595
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:47,200
Speaker 1: was the worst. I can't even say it now. This

596
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 1: is a good Patriots team. They have a good defense,

597
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 1: they have Tom Brady, they've got Gronk. It's not perfect

598
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 1: right now, but it's a good team. And I don't

599
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 1: buy this. By the way, everyone should be watching around

600
00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 1: the NFL. We should plug that too. It's on two

601
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 1: to four every day with host Playoffs with host Andrew

602
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 1: Sicilia Pacific time. That's right for to six it right

603
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 1: five five to seven East. I'm seeing how tough it

604
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 1: is five to seven Eastern every day and we're doing

605
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 1: a couple of hits per day. And yes we're doing that.

606
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 1: Um so check it out, DVR it, watch it live

607
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 1: if you're unemployed. Uh, all things you can do. Andrew

608
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 1: does an awesome job. Another guy is a better host

609
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 1: than me. Uh technically speaking, that guy's a pro. And

610
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 1: we gotta get Andrew back on the show because he

611
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 1: uh a friend of the show, Andrew Siciliano. Uh and

612
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:41,120
Speaker 1: a ment she at Andrew Siciliano. And that's what's happening

613
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 1: all right. Now, let's look ahead, guys to the Divisional

614
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 1: Round West. You wrote a very nice piece. I enjoyed it.

615
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 1: Read the whole thing. Come and recover uh six biggest

616
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 1: mysteries of the divisional Round, which you could find at

617
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:58,160
Speaker 1: NFL dot com slash all these mysteries. Gotta dig in

618
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 1: find out what are the answer? Is that a vanity?

619
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:05,240
Speaker 1: You r l that's active right now? Well, that would

620
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 1: seem counterproductive. You want it to be simple, something you

621
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,640
Speaker 1: can send out on Twitter. I don't know what that

622
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 1: we try it again. NFL dot Com slash West figured

623
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 1: it out. All these mysteries no longer need to be

624
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 1: I think like NFL dot Com slash super sleuth, that

625
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 1: would be see that's more along the lines of what

626
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,120
Speaker 1: we're thinking, dan uh in the words of t d

627
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 1: Either way, all right, let's start with let's go down

628
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:32,360
Speaker 1: the list. West, you did a great job of this,

629
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 1: which Peyton Manning? Will we see and that one that

630
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense because you're wondering if it

631
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 1: will be Let's say and listen. Now we're going back

632
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 1: all the way to the beginning of last season to

633
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,520
Speaker 1: set this up and early two thousand fourteen Peyton Manning

634
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 1: when he was still one of the most productive passers

635
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:53,240
Speaker 1: in the league, or midpoint two thousand fourteen and on

636
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 1: all the way through this season. Will we see that

637
00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 1: guy who can't throw a ball, he can't get going,

638
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 1: he's always hurt. Which one will we see? Answer that mystery? West.

639
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:07,000
Speaker 1: This one's fascinating to me because he was the biggest

640
00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 1: offseason mystery. I thought, which Peyton Manning when we're gonna

641
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 1: see And now we go into the playoffs and he's

642
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 1: still the biggest mystery because the range of outcomes is

643
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:19,760
Speaker 1: so huge. Could he be two thousand early two thousand

644
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 1: fourteen or two thousand thirteen Payton Manning, Or could he

645
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 1: be the liability of the first two months of the season,

646
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:28,880
Speaker 1: or could he be the guy who's completely broken against

647
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:30,600
Speaker 1: the Chiefs and he has to get yanked from the game.

648
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,759
Speaker 1: I feel like any of these things are possible. I

649
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 1: gotta admit I'm nervous that Peyton Manning is gonna be

650
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:40,240
Speaker 1: Peyton man As a Patriots fan, that's the worst possible

651
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,200
Speaker 1: outcome is having to go to debt. First of all,

652
00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 1: Denver winning that game. I'm rooting for the steal. I

653
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,520
Speaker 1: don't think that's I don't go into Denver and then

654
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:49,240
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning playing really well, that'd be a really painful

655
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,200
Speaker 1: like it would just be terrible to lose to Peyton Manning.

656
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 1: And he's he's supported by a great defense now, so

657
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,680
Speaker 1: I don't think we're gonna see pre Kubiak Manning. But

658
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 1: if he's just good with that def events and they

659
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:02,839
Speaker 1: take care of business again, if they if they come

660
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:04,360
Speaker 1: out of the a f C, that'd be a painful

661
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:07,040
Speaker 1: pilosopher for the page. I know I'm a bigger fan

662
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 1: of Peyton Manning than others in this room. But I

663
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 1: gotta say, isn't it more fun that he's in the

664
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 1: mix right now? It just adds a whole level of

665
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 1: drama playoffs that we needed. Uh. So we'll see what happens.

666
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,799
Speaker 1: They're a good mystery West. Next up, how beat up

667
00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:24,239
Speaker 1: are the Steelers? That is a big mystery because we

668
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 1: don't know how serious Ben's injury is. He's said he's

669
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 1: telling us exact type of injuries that he's dealing with. Well,

670
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:32,840
Speaker 1: we don't know if that's gonna keep him out of

671
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:35,319
Speaker 1: the out of action. D'angela Williams. We don't know if

672
00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 1: he'll get back. It's not looking good. Antonio Brown, we

673
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 1: don't know if he's gonna play after you get he

674
00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:43,400
Speaker 1: got concussed, whether or not Adam Jones believes it. So

675
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 1: you put those big three, uh potentially out of the game.

676
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:48,960
Speaker 1: You know, the Steelers don't have a shot. This is

677
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:51,440
Speaker 1: such a mystery that from the time I wrote this

678
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 1: yesterday afternoon to this morning, the whole tenor of the

679
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 1: Steeler's part changed. That I wrote that optimism was the

680
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:02,680
Speaker 1: order of the day, that the Pittsburgh Post Casette said

681
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 1: that you know, Antonio Brown is expected to be fine

682
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,479
Speaker 1: for this weekend. They also said big Ben is likely

683
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:13,840
Speaker 1: to play. That they deeply embedded since ten reports have

684
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,400
Speaker 1: come out saying Antonio Brown is unlikely to play, and

685
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 1: Big Ben has come out and said, look, I have

686
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,279
Speaker 1: in addition to a spring bac joint, I got torn

687
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,400
Speaker 1: ligaments in the throwing shoulder. It's a good test of

688
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:27,160
Speaker 1: the old concussion protocol. Now, if Antonio Brown plays, I

689
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,920
Speaker 1: don't think that necessarily means the concussion protocol is a

690
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,919
Speaker 1: sham or anything like that. There's just we just don't know.

691
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 1: But if he does not play because of the concussion,

692
00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 1: I think that does show on some level that that

693
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,360
Speaker 1: the protocol and the concussion and all that, that's the

694
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 1: type of thing that maybe would not have happened as

695
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,160
Speaker 1: recently as two years ago. Because Antonio Brown's the best

696
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:49,120
Speaker 1: receiver in football. I mean, I think he's the best

697
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:51,920
Speaker 1: receiving football. He's been as valuable as any receiver. His

698
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:54,480
Speaker 1: His loss is just massive. A j green last year

699
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 1: in the playoffs, wasn't he unable to get cleared? That

700
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 1: kept him out? So yeah, progress is being made. Maybe

701
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,399
Speaker 1: Brown becomes the X guy. You want to see him

702
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:03,160
Speaker 1: playing in that game, but if his head's up right,

703
00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 1: he can't. A third mystery the New England Patriots of

704
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:12,120
Speaker 1: October when they were forty Burger hanging world beaters or

705
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:15,719
Speaker 1: December when they were bums greg They couldn't. They could

706
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 1: barely beat anybody. Can't can't do anything on offense, and uh,

707
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:22,799
Speaker 1: you know, we're looking very human. Which version of the

708
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,479
Speaker 1: patch shows up. I think the best they can hope

709
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 1: for is like I'm early November version, because this is

710
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 1: a lousy running game. They're not getting doing it Dion

711
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:34,279
Speaker 1: Lewis or Blunt back. The two guys that they don't

712
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:38,360
Speaker 1: know right now are Volmer and Chandler Jones, who really

713
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:40,719
Speaker 1: hasn't been hurt earlier in the year. It sounds like

714
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:44,840
Speaker 1: they're getting Edelman high Tower back. That's good a Mendola,

715
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 1: we'll see If it's Edelman, I think you'll see a

716
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:49,480
Speaker 1: good Patriots team. It's a good defense. I'm not worried

717
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:52,680
Speaker 1: about this defense. From everything I've read out of New England.

718
00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 1: Edelman looks fantastic in practice, is cutting as well as

719
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:57,720
Speaker 1: he ever held big For that, I don't worry about

720
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,279
Speaker 1: that part of the passing game whatsoever. And m Dola

721
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 1: is healthy now, Gronks healthy. But I really do worry

722
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:06,719
Speaker 1: about the offensive line is huge, that's the big question.

723
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:09,240
Speaker 1: It's a weird thing, but it's just a cascading effect.

724
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:11,879
Speaker 1: It's not like Volmer's an All Pro. But when he's

725
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:15,719
Speaker 1: out of there, then both their tackle positions they're just lousy.

726
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:17,960
Speaker 1: And it's the wrong They're they're okay at right tax

727
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:19,879
Speaker 1: you know, everything is just a little better. The wrong

728
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,880
Speaker 1: defense to be lousy at tackle. And other Patriots news,

729
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,319
Speaker 1: Juliet Edelman said he'll be taking down his carboard in

730
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:32,919
Speaker 1: Providence next month because his neighbors are awful. Hey, they're

731
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 1: all the same. To man, it was amondla and he

732
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:40,480
Speaker 1: has awful human beings his neighbors. It's like your nine

733
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:42,279
Speaker 1: year old self grew up to be a person who

734
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 1: complains about a cardboard way to God. It was an

735
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:51,160
Speaker 1: eyesore in the neighborhood. Who have nothing better to do

736
00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:55,720
Speaker 1: with their lives than complain about other people. No nothing,

737
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:59,719
Speaker 1: Please move on. Why we're gonna bring us something up?

738
00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:03,360
Speaker 1: Martha's been near it or something. Did you know he

739
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:08,080
Speaker 1: used to drive a strawberry truck? Next mystery is that

740
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 1: a pizza delivery man? Is that every man enough for

741
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:15,839
Speaker 1: you washer in Beverly Hills. I was a pizza guy

742
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:19,680
Speaker 1: in western Massachusetts. A lot of people are pizza guys.

743
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:24,200
Speaker 1: Is the Packers offensive renaissance a one game miurage? Now?

744
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 1: This is this is one of my favorite mysteries here

745
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,839
Speaker 1: because this team, this is why the NFL doesn't make

746
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 1: any sense. And I'm glad, I'm super glad that you

747
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:35,680
Speaker 1: know I'm not some type of addict living outside Vegas,

748
00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 1: because who would have thought the Packers were all of

749
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 1: a sudden put it together after we saw months of

750
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,120
Speaker 1: tape saying it's not gonna happen, and they're down nine

751
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,520
Speaker 1: nothing on the road and it seems like everything's going wrong,

752
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:49,839
Speaker 1: and then they returned to form. Uh. And yet now

753
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:51,800
Speaker 1: they have a matchup against the Cardinals team West that

754
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:55,600
Speaker 1: completely they embarrassed them, shut down that offense, made Rogers

755
00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:58,880
Speaker 1: look like a subpart quarterback. Will that momentum carry over?

756
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,560
Speaker 1: A great mystery? Well, I think you look at this

757
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:04,239
Speaker 1: matchup and you shouldn't expect the same result as the

758
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 1: last time. The Packers are more confident right now and

759
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:09,279
Speaker 1: their offensive line is much better at healthier than it

760
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:13,920
Speaker 1: was in that game. But I fully believe James Jones

761
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:17,840
Speaker 1: cannot physically get away from Patrick Peterson, and Patrick Peterson

762
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:20,080
Speaker 1: is going to dominate that matchup and shut him down.

763
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:24,440
Speaker 1: Davante Adams reportedly unlikely to play through a knee injury.

764
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,279
Speaker 1: So what does that leave you in the passing game?

765
00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:31,640
Speaker 1: Randall Cobb, Jared Aberdarrris a flyer on Jeff Janis. Yeah,

766
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:33,560
Speaker 1: one thing you saw in that and we'll talk about

767
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:35,480
Speaker 1: it Thursday win in preview the game. But one thing

768
00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:37,719
Speaker 1: you saw. They're so confident in their guys winning one

769
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:41,200
Speaker 1: on one that they sent a lot of crazy, crazy

770
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:43,480
Speaker 1: blitzes at him. They got exotic. I mean, they can

771
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:45,719
Speaker 1: do whatever they want up front, sending extra guys. If

772
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 1: you're confident, you can just lock them down. Um. So

773
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,200
Speaker 1: there you go. Those are four mysteries of division, Rund.

774
00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:53,200
Speaker 1: We want to see the other two. You have to

775
00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 1: check it out at NFL dot com, slash around the

776
00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:59,560
Speaker 1: NFL Professional that's how you do it. And now let's

777
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 1: let's van now and uh, like I said, I have

778
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:05,799
Speaker 1: some misgivings right now about this experiment, but I did

779
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:08,440
Speaker 1: it felt like a good time for us to touch

780
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:12,280
Speaker 1: base with our listenership, our loyal listenership across the globe.

781
00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 1: And you know, just it's good to to talk. You

782
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:18,920
Speaker 1: talk to You don't have to be a psychotherapist to

783
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:22,960
Speaker 1: know that it's good to talk. So Sydney did the work.

784
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:25,799
Speaker 1: She uh. We sent out a tweet called out for

785
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 1: people who want to call into the show today, and

786

Speaker 1: got first, Sydney? Yeah, first up, we have Nathan in Sacramento.

788
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:37,720
Speaker 1: So he's on the line right now. All right, Nathan

789
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:41,680
Speaker 1: and Sacramento the capital of California. For those that are

790
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:44,799
Speaker 1: not in the know, what's up, Nathan? How's it going, heroes? Well,

792
00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:51,440
Speaker 1: actually it's a nicer kind of day. I'm excited. I'm

793
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:53,319
Speaker 1: on the way to an eye doctor appointment right now.

794
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:55,920
Speaker 1: You got nice pipes. You could You should be on

795
00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:58,319
Speaker 1: the podcast, Nathan. I've heard that a few times. It's

796
00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:00,200
Speaker 1: it's pretty cool. Thank you very much. Maybe you do

797
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:04,239
Speaker 1: better than me too, just like Colleen. Wait, you weren't

798
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:06,000
Speaker 1: one of the people that tweeted at me, did you?

799
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 1: Was that you weren't one of the people that tweeted

800
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:10,520
Speaker 1: at me about how Colleen was going to replace me?

801
00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:14,319
Speaker 1: Were you? I did not, I'm I'm loyalty. Then I

802
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,120
Speaker 1: love you. Nathan, Do you have what do you got?

803
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:17,440
Speaker 1: You got a question? You got a comment? What do

804
00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,440
Speaker 1: you got? Yeah? No, No, I've got a question. So

805
00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:22,239
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, we've we've already witnessed a j

806
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:25,239
Speaker 1: McCarron try try his best at h holding down a

807
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:28,040
Speaker 1: playoff team, didn't really work out, and now Big Ben's

808
00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:31,840
Speaker 1: hurt teams kind of been the year for the backup

809
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 1: in some cases of backups, backup for any of the

810
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:37,720
Speaker 1: remaining playoff teams. You know, if if they're key players

811
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,840
Speaker 1: went down, whose understudy would you guys trust to potentially

812
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:45,640
Speaker 1: carry him to the super Bowl. That's a good question. West, Well,

813
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 1: we have to go through these good Tavaris Jackson, Derrick Anderson. Well,

814
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 1: this is sports talk radio. Now, you gotta think quick.

815
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:54,879
Speaker 1: On you've got Tolzin brock Coss Wild Well, the easy

816
00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:58,399
Speaker 1: answers as because he's got the best defense and he's

817
00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 1: already been playing. But it's the wrong answer. Jimmy wow

818
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:08,080
Speaker 1: hold on Chase Daniel former making the leap candidate would

819
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 1: I would go Garoppolo. I like still hanging the torch

820
00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:16,359
Speaker 1: for Garoppolo. He's never played a game. He's supported by

821
00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:20,960
Speaker 1: a great coaching staff, a good defense Gronkowski. I would

822
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,719
Speaker 1: give him him the best chance. But Chase Daniel would

823
00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:26,120
Speaker 1: be fun. That wudn't what a story it would be.

824
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:28,160
Speaker 1: It would be such a fitting moment in Alex Smith's

825
00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:30,239
Speaker 1: career that the Chiefs made it to the super Bowl

826
00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:32,560
Speaker 1: with that. With Chase Daniel, he always just feels like

827
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:35,600
Speaker 1: he gets the worst luck in terms of just getting

828
00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:38,640
Speaker 1: blamed for everything. I'll never forget the first Super Bowl

829
00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:41,279
Speaker 1: that we got to cover an NFL dot com mark

830
00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:45,440
Speaker 1: and I we're sitting uh watching Actually was the second

831
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:48,920
Speaker 1: super Bowl we covered, but Colin Kaepernick had supplanted Alex

832
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:51,560
Speaker 1: Smith as a starter, and that was a major story,

833
00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:54,040
Speaker 1: and Alex Smith had to sit there for the entirety

834
00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:57,440
Speaker 1: of Super Bowl Week answering questions why he got benched, benched,

835
00:43:57,440 --> 00:43:58,920
Speaker 1: why he wasn't good enough. I don't want to see

836
00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:03,800
Speaker 1: that happen to him. I down either, Yeah, Nathan, Yeah, Nathan,

837
00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:06,680
Speaker 1: did you have who do you think? Buddy? Uh? Yeah?

838
00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:09,560
Speaker 1: The easy answer probably would have been a spoiler for

839
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:12,000
Speaker 1: me too, just because we've seen you know what he's

840
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,000
Speaker 1: when he's been able to kind of do, especially when

841
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:17,000
Speaker 1: when being went down. But I was just curious about

842
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:19,359
Speaker 1: the other ones. Yeah, Daniels, looks like it could be.

843
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:22,360
Speaker 1: You know, it'd be just a hilarious story to Notrew Jones.

844
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:24,960
Speaker 1: All right, well, thanks, thank you, good luck with your

845
00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 1: eye appointment. I hope you have continued vision. Oh yeah, later, manute,

846
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 1: thank you. Brock Aslar by the way, he must hate

847
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:36,040
Speaker 1: Peyton Manley R secretly, like he must completely rag on

848
00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 1: him to his parents and stuff. You can imagine why

849
00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:42,080
Speaker 1: for that time where he he didn't let him on

850
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:44,520
Speaker 1: the field and then now, yeah, this whole thing. I

851
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:47,040
Speaker 1: would think that behind the scenes he's very frustrated. You

852
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,600
Speaker 1: don't think man, he's nice to brock Us Probably they

853
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:51,600
Speaker 1: probably get along. I don't think this is a Bledsoe

854
00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:56,520
Speaker 1: Brady situation where Bledsoe was sneaky undercutting. Well, that's that

855
00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:58,839
Speaker 1: was just barv Rogers. He was just all about going

856
00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:03,920
Speaker 1: to ever Clear concerts and um, all right, who do

857
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:05,719
Speaker 1: we got next? We got Sydney behind the glass on

858
00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:09,319
Speaker 1: the phones. Who's next Sydney except we have Paul and

859
00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:12,840
Speaker 1: he's from great Yarmouth, England. Is that right, Paul? Wow?

860
00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:16,400
Speaker 1: I live in great Yarmouth. I'm originally from Liverpool. But yeah,

861
00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:19,160
Speaker 1: there you go. How how inferior does all the people

862
00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:21,440
Speaker 1: that just live in Yarmouth feel when they hang around?

863
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:25,959
Speaker 1: But guys like you, well they should field obviously given

864
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 1: that given the title, right, um Paul is calling in?

865
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:35,239
Speaker 1: Is this Manti? It is? Okay? Okay? How did you?

866
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:38,800
Speaker 1: How do you know these things? Everyone in England? He do?

867
00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:42,719
Speaker 1: I've connected. He and our friend Neil Dutton actually likes

868
00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:45,600
Speaker 1: stale bread. They are buddies. And do you guys host

869
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:51,560
Speaker 1: a podcast together? We do? Yeah, d yeah, give it

870
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:55,600
Speaker 1: a proper plug. It's a the MDDA, so Mains in

871
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:59,200
Speaker 1: Adults Discools Football. There you go. I've been on that podcast.

872
00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:02,040
Speaker 1: So do you have a question or a comment? Paul?

873
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,760
Speaker 1: I have a question for Chris, which we probably discussed

874
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:09,000
Speaker 1: before both Jay Gruden's a head coach of the Washington

875
00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:16,040
Speaker 1: professional football team and the rest. Yes, they they got

876
00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:19,160
Speaker 1: to the playoffs this year. They have a quarterback who

877
00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 1: was very similar to Andy Dalton. So I'm thinking, do

878
00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:25,080
Speaker 1: I do I start worrying wondering whether I'm going to

879
00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:30,720
Speaker 1: be having a celebrity celebratory party every every wild Card weekend,

880
00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:34,799
Speaker 1: and what should I call it. I find this question insulting.

881
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:38,320
Speaker 1: Why it implies that, like my breakup of the Banks

882
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:41,759
Speaker 1: was just some lark that I just stumbled upon someday. No,

883
00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:44,600
Speaker 1: you should stay your team's doing well, you're in the playoffs,

884
00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:46,719
Speaker 1: You've got something to build around. Stay with it. In

885
00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:50,600
Speaker 1: your defense, though the red Skins, they've they had they

886
00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:53,719
Speaker 1: had their Super Bowl success, but since Dan Snyder's taking

887
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:56,000
Speaker 1: over the team, since really, you know, the late nineties,

888
00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:59,799
Speaker 1: this is an embarrassing franchise. One of the worst franchises

889
00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:02,080
Speaker 1: in the league. They do make the playoffs every once

890
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:05,040
Speaker 1: in a while, but they quickly lose. There's nothing memorable.

891
00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:07,480
Speaker 1: There's a lot of heartache for Do they have a

892
00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:09,719
Speaker 1: general manager? They seem to have a good one. Do

893
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:12,319
Speaker 1: they have a scouting staff? Then I don't want to

894
00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:14,680
Speaker 1: hear it. Well, I think what Paul is getting at

895
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:19,160
Speaker 1: is he has some concerns in terms of abilities that

896
00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:21,920
Speaker 1: we could be three years from now talking about the

897
00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:26,160
Speaker 1: Cousins scale. Well, that's fair, that's a fair question. You

898
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:27,960
Speaker 1: know what the twist would be. I don't know what

899
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:33,120
Speaker 1: you would call it. Uh, I don't know what you

900
00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:37,200
Speaker 1: would call it time, but I think it's Mainz time.

901
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:40,640
Speaker 1: The Redskins version is a little different. It actually occurs

902
00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:44,799
Speaker 1: every few years and it's only against the Seahawks. It's

903
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:47,360
Speaker 1: a first round loss against the Seahawks every three or

904
00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:50,000
Speaker 1: four years, where whenever you get a new coach something like,

905
00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:52,520
Speaker 1: except for the year it's against the Packers. How about

906
00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:56,240
Speaker 1: this ball just be thankfully you don't have John Beck anymore. Yeah,

907
00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:58,879
Speaker 1: I take offense to that. Thank you very very much.

908
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:03,640
Speaker 1: All thanks means later Manzie jeers, guys, thank you. Thanks.

909
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:06,799
Speaker 1: All right, let's let's take one more call me too?

910
00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:09,359
Speaker 1: What else? Who else you got? Um? I've got I

911
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:11,279
Speaker 1: think I have Terry on the line, Terry, can you

00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:15,720
Speaker 1: hear us? Hey, guys, Terry Terry from where? Terry? Terry's

913
00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:19,640
Speaker 1: calling in from Atlanta? Oh, whoa, that's a good thing

914
00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:24,400
Speaker 1: to start off with. Settle a debate, Terry. Um. The

915
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:29,880
Speaker 1: proper slang expression when describing the city of Atlanta, Georgia

916
00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:36,680
Speaker 1: is what Atlanta? No team? No second team? What about

917
00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:42,920
Speaker 1: a town? A town? Oh? Yeah, I remember this debate? Um,

918
00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:47,240
Speaker 1: I don't really hear anybody calling it that I'm talking about.

919
00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:52,000
Speaker 1: Nobody in Georgia's calling it a town. Oh yeah. I

920
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:53,960
Speaker 1: mean every time that song comes on at a wedding,

921
00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:58,879
Speaker 1: people go nuts. But in casual conversation, people aren't saying, hey,

922
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:03,480
Speaker 1: you know, hey, a out a town? All right, fair enough?

923
00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:06,400
Speaker 1: What do you got for us? Terry? So, I'm a

924
00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:09,880
Speaker 1: big fan of show, But well, Dan, while you were away,

925
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:13,600
Speaker 1: I thought Colling Wolf killed the hosting duties. So I

926
00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:15,640
Speaker 1: just want to know where's the old juicer on the

927
00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:22,239
Speaker 1: piece scale? Gona, Well, you just guaranteed you'll never be

928
00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:26,640
Speaker 1: on the show again. Yeah, hang up on Terry. Um. Well,

929
00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:28,200
Speaker 1: as I said at the top of the show, as

930
00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:32,000
Speaker 1: you'll hear when you listen, listen back. Uh, My pa

931
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:36,160
Speaker 1: scale is somewhat low only because I I value people

932
00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:39,440
Speaker 1: that are loyal and are loyal to the cause of

933
00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:41,960
Speaker 1: the Around the NFL podcast. And I don't think anybody's

934
00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:45,319
Speaker 1: gonna betray me anytime soon. But I will have my

935
00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:50,680
Speaker 1: radar up for betrayal always. And I know and Colleen,

936
00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:53,799
Speaker 1: I know for a fact, although I didn't listen, I

937
00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:56,000
Speaker 1: know for a fact that she is a professional and

938
00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:58,160
Speaker 1: was going to do a good job. What I didn't

939
00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:00,000
Speaker 1: know is that I was going to have so much

940
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:06,360
Speaker 1: you know, thrown my way we go is Terry, are

941
00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:10,160
Speaker 1: you still there? I knew this is gonna go poorly.

942
00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:20,160
Speaker 1: Sidney is crashing back there, musing your best ever since

943
00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:24,319
Speaker 1: we made fun of John Becks and he's shut down.

944
00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:29,200
Speaker 1: So to answer your questions, p scale whereas one would

945
00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:32,319
Speaker 1: be not even a trickle, ten would be I gotta

946
00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:35,319
Speaker 1: go put on some adult diapers because I peeed my pants.

947
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:38,320
Speaker 1: Because I'm so nervous that Colleen's gonna steal my job.

948
00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:41,759
Speaker 1: I'm gonna put it at a three. I don't think

949
00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:45,360
Speaker 1: Colleen hasn't. She doesn't even enter too. You want to

950
00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:48,880
Speaker 1: steal your something Mackavellian. No, she's not a Machavellian character.

951
00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:50,759
Speaker 1: We'll see about that. I don't know. I can see

952
00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:53,880
Speaker 1: in the Eyesland she's your friend. She is, we are friends.

953
00:50:54,560 --> 00:50:57,560
Speaker 1: So there's your answer, Terry, Um, just don't give up

954
00:50:57,560 --> 00:51:01,200
Speaker 1: on me. Dad, Oh, I never doubt the old zucer.

955
00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:08,239
Speaker 1: Have a nice day. And Terry, all right, that's Terry

956
00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 1: and uh, finally all right, turns out you I mean,

957
00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:13,440
Speaker 1: I'm sure there is a way to do two calls

958
00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:15,840
Speaker 1: at once, but if there is, I'm unaware of it.

959
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:18,800
Speaker 1: So we're gonna get our last caller on the line. Okay,

960
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:22,239
Speaker 1: let's see. She's doing a great job behind the Best City.

961
00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:24,680
Speaker 1: But this I kind of had a feeling this was

962
00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:26,680
Speaker 1: going to go off the off the trail, off the

963
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:28,680
Speaker 1: tracks kind of has a little We haven't had a

964
00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:32,719
Speaker 1: producer yet who has mastered the phone call. It's easy

965
00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:34,640
Speaker 1: for us to take shots. We have no idea what's

966
00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:36,520
Speaker 1: going on. You know, listen, I don't know how to

967
00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:40,680
Speaker 1: use a landline. I'm literally fair point. I'm surprised they

968
00:51:40,680 --> 00:51:45,480
Speaker 1: still make landlines. So Terry questioned me about Colleen, which

969
00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,160
Speaker 1: I found offensive, but also you had to ask the

970
00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:54,359
Speaker 1: question as good caller does um and elephant in the room? Yeah,

971
00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:58,719
Speaker 1: Paul is nervous about the Cousins scale becoming a thing

972
00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:01,160
Speaker 1: that's real. But I would say that means you're the

973
00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:03,200
Speaker 1: Redskins are getting in the playoffs every year, So I'd

974
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:05,200
Speaker 1: be kind of like the sound of Mainz E time

975
00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:11,400
Speaker 1: mains to this Mainzy time, all good ones, Um, Colleen,

976
00:52:11,719 --> 00:52:15,480
Speaker 1: excuse me, Sydney, do we now have our final caller

977
00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:18,560
Speaker 1: on the line? I believe we do our last caller

978
00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 1: is Connor from New Jersey. From New Jersey, what do

979
00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:26,359
Speaker 1: you got for us? Conna? Yeah, Hey, Dave, listen, I

980
00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:28,480
Speaker 1: love the damage the existode and I'm really happy to

981
00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:32,080
Speaker 1: be on the first time long time. I have a

982
00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:34,359
Speaker 1: question that the comment and I'll take my answer off

983
00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:38,760
Speaker 1: the year. All right, let's hear it. All right, Well,

984
00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:41,120
Speaker 1: you know, it seems to me you guys are leaving

985
00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:43,680
Speaker 1: out some good candidates as far as head coaches that

986
00:52:43,719 --> 00:52:47,279
Speaker 1: you talk about. I mean, you know, there's this Lombardi guy,

987
00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:49,600
Speaker 1: and I don't know if you guys know this, but

988
00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:54,439
Speaker 1: his grandfather was Vince Lombardi, and uh, you know, he's

989
00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:57,799
Speaker 1: obviously got the heart of a champion. Uh. So I

990
00:52:57,800 --> 00:52:59,840
Speaker 1: don't understand why you guys aren't talking about it and

991
00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:02,439
Speaker 1: have a great season in Detroit this year. I believe

992
00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:05,279
Speaker 1: you're referring to Joe Lombardi who was fired and then

993
00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:09,920
Speaker 1: his team immediately turned around. Yeah. My next point was

994
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:13,560
Speaker 1: for you, Greg rosen Bloom. You know what I wanted

995
00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:16,600
Speaker 1: to say was you're always picking on my giants, and

996
00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:21,239
Speaker 1: I'm wondering did you play for any anyway. I'll I

997
00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:23,399
Speaker 1: think the question was might have gotten kut off there.

998
00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:26,000
Speaker 1: What team did you play for? And he'll hang up

999
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:30,200
Speaker 1: and listen. Um the minutes Shag Regional High school tennis team.

1000
00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:32,920
Speaker 1: That was really the last team, I guess, unless you

1001
00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:39,080
Speaker 1: wanted to count the Zog Sports dodgeball team championship we

1002
00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:41,359
Speaker 1: had when I was twenty three, a little embarrassing. After

1003
00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:44,120
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks, I decided to quit Connor Connor

1004
00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:48,319
Speaker 1: from New Jersey and the voice sounded familiar. Um, by

1005
00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:51,480
Speaker 1: the way, but hitting all the tropes of a caller

1006
00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:55,360
Speaker 1: to a Northeast regional potentially w f A N type show.

1007
00:53:55,760 --> 00:54:02,239
Speaker 1: So I'll give my best. Francesa Conna come back to us. Geez, Okay,

1008
00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:06,920
Speaker 1: well done by Connor. So there we go. There's the

1009
00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:09,160
Speaker 1: phone calls. Let's check in with Sydney. Now you all right?

1010
00:54:09,160 --> 00:54:11,680
Speaker 1: After that, you were running around. You probably burnt over

1011
00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:18,839
Speaker 1: three thousand calories going between multiple phones, dial tone going

1012
00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:22,040
Speaker 1: on behind the class. Europe was involved at one point.

1013
00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:24,799
Speaker 1: You did your best and I enjoyed, enjoy it. Maybe

1014
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:26,720
Speaker 1: we'll do that again. That was kind of a disaster,

1015
00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:30,359
Speaker 1: but all the callers were h good people. I think

1016
00:54:30,360 --> 00:54:33,279
Speaker 1: it was fun. Good edit out the bat the other stuff. No,

1017
00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:35,840
Speaker 1: we should leave it in. It's important that people see

1018
00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:39,040
Speaker 1: uh in, in fact, the kind of shows that Sydney,

1019
