00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 2: my boy, and there it was less Sunday, a huge

10
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:43,239
Speaker 2: victory over the Ravens. Will you say, my brother, Good morning, Dozzie.

11
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 1: So there are certain wins, there are certain games. I

12
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:47,519
Speaker 1: got a phrase for a game where you just put

13
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: your feet up. You don't have to really be attend

14
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 1: to it. It's called a beer game. You just sit back,

15
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:52,840
Speaker 1: enjoy your beer. Doesn't really matter.

16
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 2: Should we call that a cigar piece or a or

17
00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 2: a rock and chair ride?

18
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 1: Oh? I like a rocket share ride is classy? Like that?

19
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 1: That's just screams classy. I'm stealing rocket Share ride. I

20
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,319
Speaker 1: hope that's what the Raiders have tomorrow. But I will

21
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: tell you this, last Sunday was what I like to

22
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: call a Crumble Cookie Day, not for me, for my neighbors,

23
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,040
Speaker 1: because my neighbor's gonna learn some new words, and that

24
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,199
Speaker 1: means that I'm gonna have to take over some Crumble

25
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 1: cookie on Monday, which is exactly what I did. Like

26
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 1: I got the sweetest couple that lives right next door.

27
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: Like when the door's open, they hear the mother efforts

28
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,319
Speaker 1: coming out, they hear all of the chaos. And I'm

29
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 1: telling you, when the Raiders won that game in the

30
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 1: fourth quarter, there were things spewing out of my mouth

31
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: that would have had nuns blushing. So I Monday, I

32
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: did what you do, was a good neighbor, and I

33
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,559
Speaker 1: took over a four pack of Crumble cookies and said,

34
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, that's the kind of day it was on Sunday.

35
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 1: And I didn't even mind overspending for the cookies because

36
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: that was a huge I'm telling you, man, Like some

37
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 1: sometimes a coach needs identity, right, like you gotta find

38
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 1: a way to make a team sort of take your identity.

39
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 1: And I always say, you gotta have this tag team

40
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 1: like coach and quarterback. I think because the Raid don't

41
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: have the quarterback that is their identity, They've instead taking

42
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: this identity from Antonio pears in This and identity from

43
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,959
Speaker 1: Max Crosby, and they've made it the fabric of who

44
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: they are as a franchise. And man, it was on

45
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 1: display on Sunday. I had goosebumps watching that because that

46
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 1: was truly an identity character win for one team. That

47
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: was a beautiful thing. But I'm still high on it

48
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 1: six days later.

49
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,920
Speaker 2: Dude, I hear it. I love it. I heard your voice. Man,

50
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 2: you got you got the giddy up.

51
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 1: Well, I'm hanging out with you. That gives me the

52
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 1: giddy up on Now.

53
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 2: I missed you, buddy, I missed you.

54
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 1: Next week man, Saturday Morning Cartoons, I'm telling you.

55
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,680
Speaker 2: On the other hand, I am. We're giving up on

56
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 2: the season. It was a week of drama in my

57
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 2: town after Let me ask you, let me get into

58
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 2: it and ask you, because listen, I understand and I

59
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 2: appreciate the numbers and analytics and and I and I

60
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,920
Speaker 2: get it, and it's a it's a very useful tool.

61
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 2: But I say this all the time. I say, you know,

62
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:23,239
Speaker 2: when you use numbers as a religion and you completely

63
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,960
Speaker 2: forego the feel of the game, and you sell out

64
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 2: to purely the numbers and what the what the sheet says, right,

65
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 2: it's it's just a recipe for disaster. You know, there's

66
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 2: a reason why Jim Harball just wins and Jim Harball punts,

67
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 2: he kicks field goals. At times he runs the ball

68
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 2: when the other team has no time out, Like that's

69
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 2: kind of football. Like I understand that a lot of

70
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 2: new young head coaches think they invented the game five

71
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 2: years ago by playing Madden. But the game's been around

72
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 2: a long time and there's basic tenants of the game

73
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 2: that I think you need to respect. So if you

74
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 2: see that the game is gonna be one where points

75
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 2: they're gonna be at a premium, right, you got true

76
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 2: running backs, get you got Bijon Robinson, Saquon Barkley. So

77
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,359
Speaker 2: two teams are gonna try to run the ball, which

78
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 2: means the clock's gonna run, right, So you know it's

79
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 2: not gonna be a shootout. Therefore you go, I'll take

80
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:42,799
Speaker 2: the points on the fourth drive of the game because

81
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 2: it just makes sense to take the points in that

82
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 2: spot and not go fourth on fourth and fourth and

83
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,719
Speaker 2: if there's you know, the Falcons have no time out

84
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 2: even if the play works right and you know, I'll

85
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,159
Speaker 2: never deny that throwing the ball to Barkley is a

86
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 2: good idea. Yeah, I do think it's a good idea,

87
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 2: except when they have no timeouts, because when you throw

88
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 2: the ball, inherently, there's two bad things that can happen

89
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 2: as opposed to one good thing. Right, there's a multitude

90
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 2: of freakish things that could cause Barkley to drop the football,

91
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 2: like he just drops it, or Jalalen just happens to

92
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 2: air mail it. There's it just happens. You know, it

93
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,720
Speaker 2: may only happen ten times out of one hundred and

94
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:34,479
Speaker 2: ninety times he catches the ball. But you gotta you

95
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:40,279
Speaker 2: gotta subscribe to the theory that why I don't need

96
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 2: to win the game there. Yeah, it's nice, but I

97
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 2: don't need to win the game there not when I

98
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 2: that could happen. I see, it drives me insane.

99
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: What really stands out to me about analytics because I

100
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 1: think it's not I'm not anti or row analytics. I

101
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: think they're one factor in the decision.

102
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 2: To say it that way.

103
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 1: The hardest part about analytics is that they don't take

104
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: into context what's happened in the rest of the game.

105
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: They don't like saying you should go for it on

106
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: fourth and three in this situation of fourth and four

107
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: in that situation doesn't give me any context to what

108
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,479
Speaker 1: was the other team's defense tired right now? Like a

109
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 1: fourth and four right there is different than a fourth

110
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: and four, you know early in the game, like how

111
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 1: how is the offensive line playing? Like what's what's the

112
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 1: brotherly shove look like? Right now? You know, I think

113
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 1: there are so many other factors other than just saying, well,

114
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,040
Speaker 1: the data shows this. I get what the data says

115
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:37,919
Speaker 1: as part of it, but you do also have to

116
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 1: watch some feel of the game. And I think right

117
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:45,360
Speaker 1: now there is this epidemic in the NFL of cuteness

118
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 1: from offensive ass and I I don't understand it.

119
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,040
Speaker 2: Like I'll be back the word I use this week, cute'

120
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 2: that's the Eagles get too cute.

121
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 1: I mean, I'll go back to the Ravens beating the Raiders.

122
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,279
Speaker 1: If Todd Munkin, the offensive coordinator for Baltimore, acknowledges the

123
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: same thing that the broadcast crew acknowledged in the fourth quarter,

124
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,159
Speaker 1: which was that the Raiders defensive line was gassed. They've

125
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,039
Speaker 1: been out on the field a bunch they had nothing left.

126
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 1: They were talking about it on the broadcast. Yet when

127
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: you have Derrick Henry there, you just stopped running the

128
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 1: football on several drives, you got cute and went for

129
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 1: a nice little first down pass instead, which only fed

130
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 1: Max Crossby. Like that made no sense. I think the

131
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 1: Ravens getting away from the run is the reason they

132
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: lost the game. And you know, you look at it

133
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 1: at Philly in that situation, and I understand, I genuinely

134
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: can say I understand the logic of let's do an

135
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 1: aggressive play call here and get the ball to a

136
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: guy that could be the MVP of the NFL this season.

137
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 1: What could go wrong? I understand the concept behind the

138
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: plane call, But I also do understand that as a coach,

139
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 1: you got to look around and say, okay, risk reward,

140
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: what's our risk here? What's our reward? If you're in

141
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 1: a situation where you can get yourself within a few

142
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: inches of put in the game away, that's a better

143
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 1: situation to me, and you're running the ball effectively. I

144
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 1: just I thought it was unnecessarily aggressive. And I love

145
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 1: aggressed Blake calling. It's fine. It just was one of

146
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: those things where you left the door cracked, and you

147
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: didn't have to leave the door cracked. So to me,

148
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: there is this level of like risk reward. Maybe that's

149
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: the gambler in me, Like I constantly look at risk

150
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 1: reward on all of this and say when is enough enough?

151
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: That felt to me like that was just unnecessary risks

152
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 1: to try and you know, put the dagger in their hearts.

153
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: And I understand why people love all of that.

154
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 3: It's just you.

155
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: Gotta be real, that's fine, it costs you the game,

156
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,119
Speaker 1: and right now, I'm not sure that you can afford

157
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: to just throw that game away for any team in

158
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,559
Speaker 1: the NFC exactly.

159
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,320
Speaker 2: And you threw a conference game away on a weekend

160
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 2: when you have all kinds of upsets. Right you saw

161
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 2: San Francisco go down, you saw Dallas get destroyed, you

162
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 2: saw Detroit lowse at home. Like that was a big

163
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 2: that's a big game, especially for a team that doesn't

164
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 2: look very good, that's got some major issues defensively and

165
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:04,199
Speaker 2: a key offensive cogged down in aj Brown. So now

166
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, you look, you're one and one,

167
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 2: and you got to go play at New Orleans and

168
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 2: then at Tampa and back to back weeks.

169
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 1: Dad and that's that's just all part of what has

170
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 1: to be. You know, we mentioned we started this off

171
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: by saying identity, and I understand that there are some

172
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 1: franchises that aggressiveness is just going to be the identity,

173
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 1: and that that's what a coach chooses. The funny thing

174
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 1: to me is we sit there and we praise Dan

175
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,319
Speaker 1: Campbell's aggressiveness all the time until it cost him a game,

176
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 1: and then we say, well, what is he doing?

177
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, we all said you should have kicked a field

178
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 2: ball last year.

179
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 1: We all said it through the course of the regular season.

180
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,439
Speaker 1: He was like, no, I love the fact that Dan

181
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: Campbell's out here, you know. And you can also look

182
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 1: at the entire Chargers coaching staff was changed because of aggressiveness.

183
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 1: Like you just what you mentioned with harball is so

184
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 1: simple and so true, and we forget this element of it,

185
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: like there is a part of football that's about getting

186
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 1: points on drives. I look at any drive that ends

187
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,199
Speaker 1: with points was a successful drive to me. And once

188
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 1: you start chasing points, you gotta chase points the rest

189
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 1: of the game. And how often have we seen that

190
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 1: where it's like, man, this game will be a lot

191
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 1: different right now if they're taking the field goal in

192
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: the first half, So this whole like I'm gonna go

193
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: for the jugular mindset, Like that works for some boxers,

194
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: to live and die by the knockout punch. It works,

195
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 1: But there are going to be times where you're going

196
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 1: to have to box. You're gonna have to actually be

197
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 1: able to hit and counter hit and take punches. And like,

198
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 1: I just I don't know that the knockout mentality is

199
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 1: really something that you can bank on sustainably over the

200
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: course of a seventeen game season, over the course of

201
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 1: eighteen weeks.

202
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,839
Speaker 2: No, I know. I mean, you know, it's ridiculous at

203
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 2: times when when we lose the identity of football, like

204
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 2: sometimes like I I and again, if it's the Chiefs

205
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,679
Speaker 2: and you're playing Kansas City and you're the underdog and

206
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 2: you're on the road, and or you know, you're playing

207
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 2: a team and it's the Raiders are playing I don't know,

208
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 2: somebody that Detroit and you know what's gonna be. You

209
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:11,200
Speaker 2: gotta score, man, you gotta get seven's by all means,

210
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,199
Speaker 2: go for it fourth and four in the first quarter.

211
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 2: I get it. Like, you know, you want to try

212
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 2: to make a statement, you're you're an underdog, you know

213
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 2: it's gonna taking a lot more points. Field goals aren't

214
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,560
Speaker 2: gonna win the game by all means. I I you know,

215
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:27,080
Speaker 2: fourth and four, you know you take the shot. But

216
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,199
Speaker 2: if you're a favorite and you're at home and you're

217
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 2: in a game where it's gonna be a run game

218
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 2: and two running backs and clocks gonna be moving, like like,

219
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:42,079
Speaker 2: why that's where hardball kicks the field goal and that's

220
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 2: where and that's where some of these young old sees

221
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:49,079
Speaker 2: and there's some great young minds, but they're also this

222
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 2: like it's choice stick football, right, and it's not like

223
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 2: it's not Madden. As much as we want to have

224
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 2: video games imitate life, it's still life.

225
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 1: The funny thing is, as you say that, what it

226
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 1: really makes me think through all of this is if

227
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:14,680
Speaker 1: we simply were taking analytics and making analytics the only

228
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,439
Speaker 1: thing the factor in, then why have a head coach

229
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 1: at all? Just have a check GPT on the sidelines. Dude, Ah,

230
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 1: you're so right, Just have Ai coached the game.

231
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, because it's hysterical because it's like you got like

232
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 2: Nick Sirianni's the coach and he is the CEO, coach.

233
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:34,960
Speaker 2: This is what's going on my talent. It's a lot

234
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 2: of drama because Syriany, of course got stripped of well

235
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 2: he never called the plays last year, but he was

236
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 2: really involved in the offense. Now to Kelvin Moore production

237
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 2: and he's kind of on the outs and he is

238
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:54,199
Speaker 2: more the CEO coach who is overseeing things Vic Fangiosis

239
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:58,559
Speaker 2: the defense. He oversees the game and they all include

240
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 2: those decisions, but except he's not really making those decisions

241
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,840
Speaker 2: because the Eagles are one of these teams that are

242
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 2: all analytics and and they're heavy handed with analytics, and

243
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 2: so they jump in and you know, it's like this

244
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 2: whole thing. I mean, it's bizarre because people are like,

245
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 2: I actually feel sorry for him because people were ripping

246
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 2: them for kicking the field goal. I don't know where

247
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:28,199
Speaker 2: you where you're where you uh, how you line up here?

248
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 2: So in the case of they go for it, forget

249
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 2: about I think it was stupid. You run the ball,

250
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 2: you try to get two yards, you to push it

251
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 2: and go for the first down or whatever. But it's

252
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 2: now it's fourth and three and a half, right, he

253
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 2: kicks the field goal to go for to get put

254
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 2: him up six, which I agree with, but there were

255
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 2: a lot of the analytics people said, no, you go

256
00:13:56,400 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 2: for the first down there and try because three doesn't

257
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 2: mean anything. I'm thinking, what plan? Well, it doesn't right.

258
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 2: What planet is it where you you don't let them

259
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 2: have to score a touchdown a tie with a field goal.

260
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 2: I don't get it.

261
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 1: I mean I sat there and watched a Thursday night

262
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 1: football broadcast where they spent an extended amount of time

263
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 1: talking about rule changes that should be made because of

264
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: the accuracy of kickers from beyond fifty yards. We cannot

265
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 1: have our cake and eat it too, folks, Like there's

266
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 1: some level of if we're gonna sit here and acknowledge

267
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 1: that this year a historic level of post fifty yard

268
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 1: field goals are being hit, we need to acknowledge that

269
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 1: many teams, all they have to do is get to

270
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 1: about the forty yard line, the plus forty yard line,

271
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 1: and they're going to be in field goal range. So

272
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 1: how are you gonna tell me that there isn't a

273
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 1: difference between a three point and six point Like, the

274
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 1: only way you get beat when you have a six

275
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: point lead is if you give up a touchdown. Your

276
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: defense can just bend and bend and break. You just

277
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 1: not break. You just can't give up the touchdown. Like

278
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:58,480
Speaker 1: that's a substantial difference. That to me, that's confirmation bias,

279
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 1: where somebody is using the outcome to decide what should

280
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 1: have been done with the play itself, and you can't

281
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 1: do that. Like there is a level of give your team,

282
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 1: give the fifty three, give the the one hundred and

283
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 1: fifty people in that building that worked their ass off

284
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 1: all week the best chance to win, and that actually

285
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,479
Speaker 1: comes from putting points on the board. I this conversation

286
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 1: of not taking a field goal and stretching it to

287
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 1: you can only get beat one way, to me, makes

288
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 1: absolutely zero sense.

289
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 2: No, thank you, I'm not crazy. Thank you. No, I

290
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 2: appreciate that we got a ton to talk about. I'm

291
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 2: still looking my Williams after last night and the line

292
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 2: I coming back and a killer taking out the Huskers,

293
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 2: and on the Brands had a chance miss the field

294
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 2: goal at the end, and I'm a Dylan Rayola. I

295
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 2: love this kid. He's the freshman quarterback for Nebraska. I

296
00:15:57,880 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 2: love him.

297
00:15:58,360 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: Man.

298
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 2: And then they he just got caught, man, they got

299
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 2: caught behind the sticks in overtime and the aligne I

300
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 2: win in Lincoln. It was a big night Friday night football.

301
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 2: It was that Lincoln krowd, you know, mother sellout like

302
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 2: they do. It was loud, they were into it. And

303
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 2: the align I man, give him credit.

304
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 1: Big win, stunning win. I mean I have gone on

305
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 1: all of my Yahoo shows repeatedly talking about why I

306
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 1: thought a seven and no Nebraska team was going to

307
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 1: be taken on Ohio State and why I think Nebraska

308
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 1: has a real shot at the College Football Playoff because

309
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 1: of the way the schedule lays out. I did not

310
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 1: see this one coming. I didn't and kind of stunning

311
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 1: to me. And you know, good on Illinois for getting

312
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 1: a big win. Not a lot of people have been

313
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 1: paying attention to him. Ryola, by the way, still played

314
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 1: really well in that game. You're right. It's just it's

315
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 1: it's so funny that the margins are so thin. And

316
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 1: I was talking to a Big twelve coach about this

317
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 1: last week who said, you know, the thing that we

318
00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 1: all understand is the margins were incredibly thin, and you

319
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 1: got that sense watching Illinois Nebraska take each other on.

320
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 1: I think I walked away from that saying, man, maybe

321
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:07,960
Speaker 1: I've slept a little bit on Illinois this year. Maybe

322
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,879
Speaker 1: I haven't given them the respect they deserve. Certainly this

323
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 1: is the sort of game that Nebraska sort of learns from.

324
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,159
Speaker 1: The nice thing is that with the College Football Playoff

325
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,040
Speaker 1: being the way it is, they still had plenty of

326
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 1: real estate ahead of them to try and get there.

327
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 1: But man, no, this was a This was a to me,

328
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:24,439
Speaker 1: it was a wild loss. It was kind of a

329
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 1: stunning moment for a Nebraska team that really had everything

330
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: in front of him.

331
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:32,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's also a reminder that you know, it's it's

332
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:36,159
Speaker 2: second year coach, right, Like, you know, I know Matt

333
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 2: very well, and I talked to him all the time,

334
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 2: and we were talking, you know, this week, and you know,

335
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:48,960
Speaker 2: he actually was a little not you know, you love,

336
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 2: you welcome the expectations, but it makes you a little

337
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,160
Speaker 2: nervous when you know that. You know, he's in year

338
00:17:56,200 --> 00:18:00,159
Speaker 2: two of the rebuild, right so you know you so

339
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 2: it'll only be able to run on that front. Yeah,

340
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 2: Like at certain times, like the hope is, you know,

341
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 2: three years, I think he was ready to really make

342
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 2: that leap next year, right, like he'll have it'll be

343
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 2: his third year. Two full years of recruiting is when

344
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 2: you start to kind of see it and you get

345
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,200
Speaker 2: to kind of really have your stamp on it, even

346
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:28,400
Speaker 2: though you have the quarterback.

347
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think on the other side, Brett Bielima

348
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: quietly is just sort of got Illinois. He's got him turning.

349
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 1: They get a second ranked win early in the season.

350
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 1: I meant, quarterback play, yeah, really good efficient quarterback play too.

351
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 1: Four touchdown passes in that game. I think it was

352
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:50,360
Speaker 1: like it just it was one of two stunning I think,

353
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,439
Speaker 1: you know, I was pretty surprised the way Stanford came

354
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 1: back and you know, kicked a field goal to beat

355
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,080
Speaker 1: Syracuse in a game that they got a just a

356
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,720
Speaker 1: monstrously lucky pass down the side line as that game

357
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 1: was coming to an end. So, you know, good for them.

358
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,360
Speaker 1: Better to be lucky than good. If, just if that's

359
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 1: the tone for the weekend. Man, we are in for

360
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 1: one this weekend because I'm telling you, like I'm watching

361
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 1: Friday night football, thinking Friday night football is usually supposed

362
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 1: to suck. But I do think it's a kind of

363
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 1: a beautiful thing that a game like Nebraska Illinois on

364
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 1: a Friday night. I think in a couple of weeks

365
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 1: we have Michigan's take.

366
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 2: Fox like I love it.

367
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm in I love it, dude. We love it

368
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,119
Speaker 1: sitting out in the bar on Friday night, you know,

369
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 1: and like football that actually counts on all the TVs.

370
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:31,239
Speaker 1: I'm in for that.

414
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:32,919
Speaker 1: You know what I'm going to be doing tomorrow football,

415
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 1: So I am going to be pulling some of the

416
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 1: animatronics out to start prepping it. Wow for some Halloween. Yeah,

417
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,160
Speaker 1: like it's it's and but I'm with you there.

418
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 2: Tell the audience to be favor You gotta tell the

419
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 2: audience what you do if they haven't heard. I think

420
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:51,879
Speaker 2: I got to take a drive off this year with

421
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:52,679
Speaker 2: the kids.

422
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:56,440
Speaker 1: Oh yeah. So you know, for the place in Nashville

423
00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 1: for years still has a different movie in the front

424
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,560
Speaker 1: lawn all over the place, and so I think last

425
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 1: year there were thirty something Halloween movies represented, and so

426
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 1: I've been building the collection in Connecticut to to compete

427
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,360
Speaker 1: with that. Although you know it's hard. That's a lot

428
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 1: of movies. But the animatronics go out, they go everywhere,

429
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,479
Speaker 1: and then I'll start putting up like the plastic all

430
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 1: over the house because I like to create false walls

431
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:23,880
Speaker 1: inside so like even as people come through the house,

432
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:25,720
Speaker 1: it's like kind of you're living in a haunted house.

433
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,200
Speaker 1: I've got stuff that like, I've got you know, bodies

434
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,920
Speaker 1: that mount on walls and all like everything you can imagine.

435
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: I've added a few new animatronics already this year. So

436
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 1: feeling good, feeling froggy. It's a gonna have a big

437
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:41,640
Speaker 1: Old Halloween party. I will this. This is like an annual,

438
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 1: the Big Old Halloween Party. I'm gonna have the first one.

439
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:46,719
Speaker 1: First time. I have a big one in Connecticut, and

440
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:48,440
Speaker 1: it's gonna be on a Friday night, So the next

441
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 1: morning I'm gonna be on air with you still raging

442
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 1: from the party.

443
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 2: Is the goal?

444
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 1: Like, my goal is for people to still be partying

445
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 1: when we start the show. That's you know, I'm sober

446
00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:59,000
Speaker 1: right now. What the goal is for them to still

447
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 1: be for them to to be partying. But yes, it's

448
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 1: it's a it's gonna be uh, it's gonna be fun.

449
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 1: Like it's funny. I had some guys working in the

450
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:08,720
Speaker 1: Connecticut house to fix some things, and I forgot to

451
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,440
Speaker 1: tell them that there's a storage area in the basement

452
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 1: that has a bunch of like life sized animatronics in it.

453
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 1: And one of the guys opened the door just like

454
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 1: literally went running out because he he I didn't tell him.

455
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 1: It wasn't I wasn't here. But the main contractor that

456
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 1: was working in the house was like, yeah, you're scared that,

457
00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:26,680
Speaker 1: you know what out of my guys because they opened

458
00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:28,439
Speaker 1: the door and all they saw was Michael Myers, like

459
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,640
Speaker 1: and he was he still has the animatronic working because

460
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,440
Speaker 1: he's oh way, so he just started like trying to

461
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:37,399
Speaker 1: stab somebody. They ran out of the house. I'm like,

462
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 1: there we go. That that's what happens. So uh yeah,

463
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 1: it's time to Uh I'll start putting stuff out inside

464
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:45,679
Speaker 1: by the windows so that it looks like the it

465
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 1: looks like I have serial killers in my house.

466
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 2: That starts using Ah, dude, that's classic.

467
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 1: I will send you pictures, my friend, I will send

468
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:53,399
Speaker 1: you a picture.

469
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 2: Oh you have to Oh my god, that's awesome. That's

470
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,639
Speaker 2: flat out awesome. It's funny. The contract reminds me of

471
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:03,960
Speaker 2: a buddy Mind. He came when he came over from Italy.

472
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,679
Speaker 2: He didn't realize that he was doing construction right like

473
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 2: and working on houses and doing interiors and stuff. And

474
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 2: he didn't realize that he was doing uh, he was

475
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:20,360
Speaker 2: working at at this one job was at this funeral

476
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:24,880
Speaker 2: parlor because in South Philly, like it's you know, they're

477
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 2: like these houses that are turned into this, you know,

478
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,360
Speaker 2: they're turned into the funeral power. Anyway, he's walking into

479
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 2: the room and he sees someone on the chair and

480
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:39,919
Speaker 2: he says good the morning, right, and then nothing, you know,

481
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,959
Speaker 2: the person doesn't answer them. He says it again, you know,

482
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 2: the good in the morning, and then nothing, and because

483
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,480
Speaker 2: he's walking in and out of the room, finally he says,

484
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 2: good morning, what's the matter with you? And he goes

485
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 2: to tap them on the shoulder, and the body just

486
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 2: slumps and falls to the ground.

487
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 1: Right, that's straight out of a movie. That's insane.

488
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 2: And he completely freaks out. He's like, oh my god, like

489
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 2: that's cursing Italian, like, oh my god, run it out,

490
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 2: run it, for go God. And then he didn't realize

491
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 2: it was that there was a funeral power and it

492
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 2: was a body that they were getting ready to to

493
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,719
Speaker 2: groom and they had it actually sit up. They had

494
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,639
Speaker 2: it sitting up in a chair so they could do that.

495
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,880
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that is you know, now suddenly I'm

496
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,920
Speaker 1: sudden changed. The horror freaking me is changing my mind,

497
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 1: like maybe I don't want to be cremated, Maybe I

498
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 1: want to try and scare somebody on the death There

499
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 1: we go. You're talking me into it just to freak

500
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 1: me out. It's like put it in my will. It's

501
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 1: I can leave leave my body slumped in the in

502
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 1: the in the funeral home for a couple of days,

503
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 1: just just to freak people out. That would be the

504
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:45,720
Speaker 1: way to go.

505
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, oh that's classic. That's absolutely classic.

506
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 1: Uh.

507
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,639
Speaker 2: We got lots to get to. I gotta I gotta

508
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:58,160
Speaker 2: get to We gotta go all over all the football,

509
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 2: the NFL, college, a lot of stuff, but I gotta

510
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:04,760
Speaker 2: hit you with shoh Otani gave us what I think,

511
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:08,600
Speaker 2: he's the greatest game of my lifetime in any sport.

512
00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 2: And we've seen you know, I sold Jordan's score or

513
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 2: whatever it was at the garden. It was some ridiculous thing.

514
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 3: You know.

515
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:20,440
Speaker 2: We know we've watched Kobe's you know, put a ton

516
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 2: of points up and all this stuff. Great quarterback play

517
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 2: and running backs and receivers of all kinds of you know,

518
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 2: pin ball numbers. Never have I seen ten for ten,

519
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 2: three home runs, six for six, three home runs, ten RBI,

520
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 2: four runs, score, two stolen bases, and a dude, he

521
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 2: files it up last night with another home run and

522
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 2: another stolen base for the Dodgers. It's unbelievable. With this

523
00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 2: it's he's he's ridiculous. He's the greatest athlete that I

524
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,439
Speaker 2: think I've seen in my lifetime. Oh yeah, I mean

525
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 2: dominates the sport.

526
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:07,920
Speaker 1: The funniest thing to me is you and I have

527
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 1: talked so much about, like how do you get somebody

528
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 1: to transcend the number of my friends just casually that

529
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: are coming in and like, here's the question that people

530
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:19,240
Speaker 1: are asking. Are we allowed to say he's the greatest

531
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 1: we've ever seen? Because that's what it feels like, and

532
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,159
Speaker 1: nobody wants to be hyperbole with it or hyperbolic with that.

533
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:25,800
Speaker 1: I should say, but how are we're supposed to say that?

534
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:29,400
Speaker 1: I don't know, a hyperbolics the chamber, whatever. But there

535
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 1: is this piece of me that what you're saying is right, like,

536
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:37,480
Speaker 1: this is the single greatest thing I've ever seen in

537
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 1: baseball and maybe the greatest thing I've ever seen in sports.

538
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 1: I mean, just when you start talking about it's so

539
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,959
Speaker 1: rare to get a moment in baseball that makes everybody say, hey,

540
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,199
Speaker 1: if you're not watching this, turn it on right now.

541
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: And this a few times where social media was winning

542
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 1: because I wasn't paying attention at the beginning of the

543
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 1: game and all of a sudden, everybody's like, no, you

544
00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:59,360
Speaker 1: got to tune this, tune in, tune in, tune in. Yeah,

545
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,200
Speaker 1: And it felt like the time I've told you about before.

546
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,720
Speaker 1: It felt like when we were watching Sosa versus McGuire

547
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 1: and the home run chase, and all of a sudden,

548
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,280
Speaker 1: ESPN was cutting into every single moment when they were

549
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 1: at bat. It was must see TV to watch that

550
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 1: game and then to see that that's the way that

551
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: he got the fifty, like it just man, it just

552
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 1: hit different. And this is for you. We say what

553
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,119
Speaker 1: we want about where show he's playing, and you know,

554
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 1: the angels and all of these different things, but to me,

555
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,920
Speaker 1: nobody's paying the same level of attention if he's not

556
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:31,119
Speaker 1: where he is. It just I thought it was a

557
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 1: perfect moment for baseball. It was a perfect moment for

558
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 1: the player. It was a perfect moment for sports. Like

559
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:39,160
Speaker 1: it felt like a Disney movie, not an actual night.

560
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 1: And that that's incredible.

561
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 2: Oh my god. Yeah. I And I gotta tell you,

562
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 2: I I'm kind of over the moon with it because

563
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 2: I you know, I'm a baseball fan and like this

564
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 2: stuff that I had never seen. He's He's ridiculous. I

565
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:57,920
Speaker 2: had a friend of mine who was who was a

566
00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 2: huge baseball fan, and he's become casual nowadays and he's like,

567
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:06,240
Speaker 2: wait o, Tani has that kind of speed. I'm like, yeah,

568
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 2: you know, he's got ridiculous speed, ridiculous power. And oh,

569
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 2: by the way, he's a ridiculous picture. Like lost in

570
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 2: this year is he's recovered from Tommy Child Like last year,

571
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 2: he's gonna be throwing every five days. I mean, come on, like,

572
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:30,960
Speaker 2: we've never seen anything like this, And sometimes I feel

573
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 2: like we're not. We're not. We don't talk about it enough.

574
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,640
Speaker 2: And I just had to bring this up, man.

575
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 1: We don't talk about it enough, because what do we

576
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 1: all like? This is my whole argument with the Lebron conversation.

577
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 1: There's a lot of people right now that continually think

578
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 1: it's just sexy to you know, doo doo all over

579
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 1: Lebron's legacy. It just happens all the time, and I

580
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 1: laugh at it. I genuinely laugh at it, because we

581
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 1: all know what's gonna happen in forty years. The same

582
00:29:57,560 --> 00:29:59,959
Speaker 1: people today that are sitting here saying, oh, Lebron isn't there,

583
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 1: Lebron isn't that are gonna be the people that are

584
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 1: sitting and it's gonna be the grandpa sitting in the

585
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 1: living room saying, oh, don't talk to me about that.

586
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 1: I saw Lebron play. Yeah, right, Like, that's that's what's

587
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: going to happen to all of the Lebron haters right now.

588
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 1: Eventually they'll become Lebron stands late in life. They're like, no,

589
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 1: these kids today don't know. We are literally watching that,

590
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 1: like we are watching the one that's like no, no, no, no, no,

591
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 1: no no, don't talk to me about that guy I

592
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 1: saw show. Hey, Like, it's there is such a power

593
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 1: to what's happening right now that will be generational. That's

594
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 1: just that's so rare. It's it's truly iconic. And I

595
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 1: don't think you can celebrate or appreciate it enough because

596
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 1: I don't know that I'll ever see this again in

597
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 1: my lifetime. And that when you when you think about

598
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 1: it that way, it just to me, it just hits

599
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 1: incredibly different.

600
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 2: I do it spot On man spot On. It's it's

601
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 2: just so uh just it it's crazy to me, like like,

602
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,280
Speaker 2: and he follows it up with a game last night

603
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 2: where he's three for four hits another Homebron awful lefty

604
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 2: by the way, and and steals a lot of base

605
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 2: Like what like, I mean that that's crazy. Now he's

606
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 2: in the uh, you know, fifty one fifty one club, Like,

607
00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:15,080
Speaker 2: come on, man, that's absurd. That stuff's craze, insane. I

608
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 2: just I had to I have to discuss at it,

609
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 2: and you're spot on. That's exactly what people are gonna

610
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,480
Speaker 2: do with Lebron. It's like, you know, I'd always like

611
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:28,000
Speaker 2: to cherish greatness when it's in front of it. You

612
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 2: got to cherish it, man, you gotta you have to

613
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:30,840
Speaker 2: nurture it.

614
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,920
Speaker 1: I mean this objectively. I would probably make more money

615
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 1: in my life if I didn't feel this way. But

616
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 1: my whole thing is like, who really cares if Lebron's

617
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 1: better than Michael? I mean, through all of it, it's

618
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: not going to change anything. It's the grown up equivalent

619
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 1: of my dad can beat up your dad. Nobody's ever

620
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 1: gonna be able to solve one side of this the other.

621
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 1: It's only opinion. You can't convince anyone of anything in it.

622
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 1: And like, but there's also this point of like, instead

623
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 1: of sitting here and filling just hours and hours and

624
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:05,520
Speaker 1: hours of daily content on shows yelling about that stupidity.

625
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 1: Why don't we have like smart conversations, like why don't

626
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 1: we guys like Legs tell us what's great about Lebron

627
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 1: instead of sitting here and trying to figure out whether

628
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 1: Lebron could play in the nineties or nineties Michael could

629
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 1: play today? Like who cares? Who cares?

630
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 2: I'd same way I could have. I stupidly did not

631
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 2: sell out to uh, you know, ridiculous conversations, hot takes

632
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:32,560
Speaker 2: and fake fake takes and the whole thing. I hear you.

633
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 2: I hate that stuff. I always love to like cherish

634
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:41,600
Speaker 2: sport and greatness and discussing how does it happen? And like,

635
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:44,680
Speaker 2: you know, the rarity. It's like a rare gem and

636
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 2: and in reality nobody cares about the adjectives.

637
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, god, that is that is so well said. And

638
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 1: it's just it's funny because I was doing an interview

639
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 1: with a site to promo some of the Yahoo shows

640
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 1: that I'm doing, and the host asked me about, you know,

641
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 1: twenty four hour news cycle and some of the yelling

642
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 1: debate shows and if they've become the problem with society.

643
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: And the funny thing is I said to him was like, no,

644
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:13,400
Speaker 1: I don't think that they're the problem. I think it's

645
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 1: easy to blame them instead of looking at the real problem,

646
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 1: which is that's what people want, you know, and like

647
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 1: through all of it, we can just be honest for

648
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 1: a second. The reason that you know, stephen A and

649
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 1: Shaysha are you know, making the money they make is

650
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, they can have

651
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 1: that conversation about Michael versus Lebron and it's going to

652
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:35,440
Speaker 1: get ten times the views that a smart basketball video will.

653
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 1: And that's not stephen A's fault, that's the viewer's fault.

654
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:41,720
Speaker 1: But everybody wants to blame, you know, everybody wants to blame,

655
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 1: you know, the content, when it's really the consumption of

656
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 1: the content that's problem. If we really didn't want that

657
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,080
Speaker 1: people stop consuming it, then it wouldn't be made anymore.

658
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 1: But how do you get people to stop consuming it?

659
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 1: So that's a meta thought for this early in the

660
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 1: morning on a Saturday. It's just you know, stands out to.

661
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 2: Me, h spot on, my brother spot on on. We're

662
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:02,040
Speaker 2: to think quick time out will come back. I have

663
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:05,880
Speaker 2: a I have a question for you on the other side,

664
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:09,080

00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,880
Speaker 2: Right, I'm telling you it's shaking the earth.

683
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:19,440
Speaker 1: I didn't need any more juice in my veins to

684
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:21,440
Speaker 1: get ready for the gym after this workout today, But

685
00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:23,520
Speaker 1: now I got it, Like I'm gonna have to have

686
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 1: the guys that I'm gonna have to breathe play that

687
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:27,720
Speaker 1: force right before the end of the show, just because

688
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:29,759
Speaker 1: that's gonna be the thing that amps me straight over

689
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,759
Speaker 1: to the gym. Look, I'm not I'm not saying things

690
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:35,000
Speaker 1: are good. I'm just saying things are good. Like body

691
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,759
Speaker 1: fat's reduced a little bit more. I am down at

692
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 1: this point, a whopping thirty eight pounds. So I am

693
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 1: thirty eight pounds down. By the way, I was already

694
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: a scrawny guy, but I'm thirty eight pounds down. But

695
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,040
Speaker 1: my trainer did tell me this. All right, I'm probably

696
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:48,880
Speaker 1: at the lowest weight that I'm gonna be at now,

697
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,239
Speaker 1: Like I've cut everything I'm gonna cut. Now we start

698
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,480
Speaker 1: the process of like increasing my overall mass. Right, So

699
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:57,760
Speaker 1: like now I'm in this. I mean I'm lifting heavier,

700
00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 1: like i'm lifting, I'm lifting bigger. So I'm not going

701
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 1: to brag or anything, but I'm gonna brag. The other day,

702
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,680
Speaker 1: I was doing calves on like the you know, the

703
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:06,880
Speaker 1: leg press machine. I got to four hundred pounds of

704
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,240
Speaker 1: my calves. Like I'm telling you these things at dude,

705
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 1: these chicken legs or are putting it up. I'm at

706
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:15,800
Speaker 1: this like this is nothing for somebody like you're you

707
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:17,960
Speaker 1: and the boys like you guys are big, Like I'm

708
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 1: not somebody that's ever lifted weights until this journey. So

709
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 1: the fact that now I regularly bench press more than

710
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:26,480
Speaker 1: I weigh, I'm like, that's that's significant to me, Like

711
00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,560
Speaker 1: that's my my upset is more than my way. So

712
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:31,840
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, I'm getting there, like you know, like

713
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:34,279
Speaker 1: my my goal is to get to where I can

714
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:36,480
Speaker 1: two twenty five at a bunch like NFL guys do.

715
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:38,880
Speaker 1: Like I'm not there yet, but I will say this,

716
00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:42,040
Speaker 1: like I actually I stumbled until somebody hadn't seen in

717
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,319
Speaker 1: a minute yesterday and he just stopped. I haven't seen

718
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,359
Speaker 1: him in probably ten years. They looked at me, He's like, dude,

719
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 1: you look like a different human being. So it's it's

720
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,000
Speaker 1: it's actually kind of crazy, like you know, And I'm

721
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:52,840
Speaker 1: doing this, by the way, at the ripe age of

722
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:54,960
Speaker 1: forty seven. For everybody that sits there and they can't

723
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,400
Speaker 1: says they can't do it, Like I am genuinely in

724
00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 1: the best shape of my life in forty seven, at

725
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 1: forty seven, and I've done all of it in twenty weeks.

726
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:05,439
Speaker 1: So like you know, faster than if I had gone

727
00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:07,720
Speaker 1: And like we're being honest ay on radio for a second.

728
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,080
Speaker 1: He because I actually went to a place and I

729
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 1: look to try and see if I could just get

730
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:13,279
Speaker 1: lighto because I've always had a little belly, so I

731
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 1: was like, I just want my tiny belly sucked out.

732
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 1: And the doctor was like, yeah, we could probably do

733
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,239
Speaker 1: this and that and that the recovery time would have

734
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,759
Speaker 1: been six months, so in less time than it would

735
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:24,920
Speaker 1: take to get you know, everything sucked out. I've actually

736
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 1: done it the right way, and like I don't have

737
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,720
Speaker 1: abs yet, but man I I sort of have abs,

738
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:32,560
Speaker 1: Like I sort of got like the cutout abs. It's

739
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:35,160
Speaker 1: almost there. It's almost there. So you know, like all

740
00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 1: I've had to do is eat diligently for twenty weeks

741
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:39,239
Speaker 1: and work out. You know, I go to the gym

742
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 1: six days a week. So we're down thirty eight pounds.

743
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:45,680
Speaker 2: Thirty eight pounds, dude, that's amazing. That's absolutely amazing. God

744

Speaker 2: bless your Barty fit Chies Fitness.

745
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:50,560

746
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:50,879
Speaker 1: more time?

747
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 7: Fitzes Fit this journey update?

Speaker 8: Yes, I'm glad you like it.

749
00:37:57,840 --> 00:37:59,239
Speaker 1: Well, You're gonna have to sell that to me. So

750
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:00,800
Speaker 1: I could just play it right when I get on

751
00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:02,840
Speaker 1: the tread bill, like right to start my sprints. At

752
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:03,840
Speaker 1: the end, I'm just gonna be like.

753
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:07,280
Speaker 8: It's like it's like an intro song like for wrestling

754
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 8: when you're coming out, Like I feel like that would

755
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,440
Speaker 8: be like you're coming out to the treadmill and then

756
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 8: you just play that and just gets you all pumped up.

757
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:17,880
Speaker 1: No, no, yeah, so that plays. That's like current wrestling,

758
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:20,359
Speaker 1: you know, when I'm running in the ring to save

759
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:24,800
Speaker 1: Anthony right like that that plays the something you know,

760
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 1: like something dramatic like NF plays and I run out

761
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:31,640
Speaker 1: to n F after the Fit Fitness Fitsy's Fitness Journey update,

762
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 1: Like that's Anthony Gargano. What would your ring music be

763
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 1: if you were a professional wrestler? What would bring you out?

764
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:38,319
Speaker 3: Uh?

765
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:42,720
Speaker 2: I mean probably would go with Public Enemy.

766
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:45,880

773
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:11,320

Speaker 8: random song maybe like something like eighties like rock. I

777
00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:20,160
Speaker 8: think that would be it.

778
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:20,799
Speaker 2: That's cool.

779
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,800
Speaker 8: We're backstree boys also probably, but maybe a little backstory.

00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:25,760
Speaker 8: Boys gotta go old school.

781
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:28,400

Speaker 2: and the car that is before us lots to get to.

799
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:42,840
Speaker 2: We got a full slate of college last night. We

800
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:47,239
Speaker 2: already talked about it, UH Friday night football, and it

801
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:49,400
Speaker 2: was it was a lot of fun. Then it was

802
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 2: Nebraska Illinois the aligne I come in with a major

803
00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 2: victory on the road and Link in tough place to play,

804
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:04,880
Speaker 2: linket Nebraska. Everybody's feeling it right, they're feeling a potential

805
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:08,240
Speaker 2: playoff run. And you gotta give you a line night credit.

806
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,759
Speaker 2: A terrific game last night. They went in overtime thirty one,

807
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:16,960
Speaker 2: twenty four. Stanford goes to Syracuse in its first ACC

808
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 2: game FITSI and wins that one on the road twenty six,

809
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:27,560
Speaker 2: twenty four, and then the thriller Washington State San Jose

810
00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:31,360
Speaker 2: State double overtime fifty four to fifty two. That was

811
00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:33,320
Speaker 2: last night's action.

812
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:38,080
Speaker 1: Yeah. I still think by the way that Stanford Syracuse game,

813
00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:42,719
Speaker 1: really incredible ending to it. And I think one of

814
00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 1: the themes we saw last night was, man, you just

815
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:50,560
Speaker 1: it's such a thin line between winning and losing, and

816
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 1: you know, the acclamation of Stanford straight over to go

817
00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:58,239
Speaker 1: into two Syracuse that's tough. That's a tough trip to make, right.

818
00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:01,000
Speaker 1: Nobody really cares about that, but I thought that made

819
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 1: an impact and a difference huge for them to get

820
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:05,520
Speaker 1: that win. It's a really big deal to.

821
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:09,319
Speaker 2: Me, especially when you know you're looking now at these

822
00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:14,440
Speaker 2: crazy conferences right like, you know, how about USC Michigan today?

823
00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:18,719
Speaker 2: Right here it is it's a big ten matchup at

824
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:26,320
Speaker 2: USC in the big House. Orgy gets to start for Michigan.

825
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:31,240
Speaker 2: So queebac chain QB change for Michigan that day. Listen.

826
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:33,920
Speaker 2: They had to do it. I mean they were getting nothing.

827
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:36,240
Speaker 2: I mean you had to make the change.

828
00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:39,040
Speaker 1: I think the most surprising part is that over the

829
00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:42,239
Speaker 1: course of the first few games, when things didn't look good,

830
00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:45,719
Speaker 1: they weren't giving Orgy a lot of opportunities. Like I

831
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 1: think it's stunned me in the beginning that we haven't

832
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:51,320
Speaker 1: seen a quarterback change midgame. Hey, this isn't working with

833
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 1: us in Jackson energy. Orgie comes in, and this to

834
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:56,319
Speaker 1: me means Michigan's game plan is going to be all

835
00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:58,960
Speaker 1: about running the ball right now. And that means not

836
00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:01,200
Speaker 1: just running the ballsanding the ball off. They're going to

837
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:04,360
Speaker 1: be finding interesting ways to utilize the athleticism of a

838
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:07,359
Speaker 1: young kid that can run and throw right. So look,

839
00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 1: I understand that there's a learning curve and a development

840
00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:11,279
Speaker 1: curve and all of these things that you're worried about,

841
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:13,120
Speaker 1: but man, I want him in just to see how

842
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,839
Speaker 1: he plays. I think this absolutely changes the game plan

843
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 1: for Michigan. I was a little surprised that this was

844
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:20,719
Speaker 1: the game they put him in, considering I think they

845
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:23,000
Speaker 1: have Minnesota next, which would have been a much easier

846
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:25,840
Speaker 1: intro for him. But I think what they're telling you

847
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:27,440
Speaker 1: is that they see it every day and they think

848
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:29,359
Speaker 1: he's ready, and he better be ready because it's going

849
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:30,040
Speaker 1: to be a big game.

850
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:36,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they had no choice. I mean, Warren two touchdowns,

851
00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:42,879
Speaker 2: six interceptions, forty eight or seventy two. I mean, it's

852
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:44,960
Speaker 2: just not good, just not good enough.

853
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:45,239
Speaker 3: Man.

854
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:47,440
Speaker 2: You get look at some point we saw in the

855
00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 2: NFL with Bryce Young, like I can't play it, Like

856
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,759
Speaker 2: you're unplayable right now. Just give me no chance to win.

857
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:58,680
Speaker 2: And you know, at some point it's just not fair

858
00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:01,400
Speaker 2: to the rest to the football team if you give

859
00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:02,120
Speaker 2: me no chance.

860
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you'll lose the rest of the football team quickly.

861
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:07,320
Speaker 1: If you turn around and keep saying no, no, no, no,

862
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:10,839
Speaker 1: best player gets in, We're gonna everybody's competing, and it's like, well,

863
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 1: not at the most important position in all the sports,

864
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:17,800
Speaker 1: Like what are we doing here? So absolutely, it's just

865
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:21,799
Speaker 1: I just want to remind Michigan fans loudly it's okay

866
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:23,480
Speaker 1: to be in a bit of a rebuild. Like you

867
00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:27,319
Speaker 1: lost your head coach, you lost most of your productivity

868
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 1: from last year from this team. This is a different

869
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:32,399
Speaker 1: Michigan team, and I think it's going to take more

870
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:34,879
Speaker 1: just a minute to establish who he is and who

871
00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:37,800
Speaker 1: they are with him, you know. So there's a bigger

872
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:40,759
Speaker 1: difference here too, because even as much as I've talked

873
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,120
Speaker 1: about where I think there's a learning curve for Kaitlin

874
00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:45,720
Speaker 1: to bore over at Alabama, Nick Saban is still present

875
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 1: around Alabama, Like there's still a sense of like, hey,

876
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 1: this is a handoff. Hardball's not president around Michigan, He's

877
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:55,000
Speaker 1: doing another job, right. So this was truly a thank

878
00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:57,080
Speaker 1: you so much appreciated tip of the cap. I love

879
00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:59,280
Speaker 1: you guys, you love me. We want to Naddy together.

880
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:01,960
Speaker 1: I'm off to different things and like that's a you

881
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:03,960
Speaker 1: just got to change your mindset around that. If you're

882
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:06,960
Speaker 1: a Michigan fan, I just think that right now, it's

883
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:09,880
Speaker 1: about can we see Orgy develop into somebody that can

884
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:11,880
Speaker 1: be competitive for the next couple of years. If so,

885
00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:14,360
Speaker 1: the wins and losses don't matter as much as it

886
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:15,919
Speaker 1: matters just to put your best foot forward.

887
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:21,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's gonna be interesting to see what Orgy

888
00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:25,520
Speaker 2: can be because remember, I mean, he only played a

889
00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:30,279
Speaker 2: little bit behind McCarthy, and there's some worry about, you know,

890
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:34,800
Speaker 2: does he have the arm to play this position? You know,

891
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:40,200
Speaker 2: the dramatic he's dramatically different than McCarthy. You know, just

892
00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:43,800
Speaker 2: he people worried about his ability just to throw the ball.

893
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:47,360
Speaker 2: You remember last year he come in, he had a

894
00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:51,360
Speaker 2: couple underthrows, right that people are like, oh, oh, like

895
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:54,200
Speaker 2: what's that about. They start stacking a box against them.

896
00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 2: So it's gonna be interesting to see what he gives you,

897
00:45:58,680 --> 00:45:59,719
Speaker 2: right m.

898
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:03,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, and like you got to figure that out, because

899
00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:08,800
Speaker 1: I it's important in modern college football to understand that

900
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:12,320
Speaker 1: modern college football ain't that different than the modern NFL.

901
00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:15,040
Speaker 1: If you do not have a quarterback that can win

902
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:17,640
Speaker 1: you big games, you are not going to win a Natty.

903
00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:20,080
Speaker 1: I don't think you can just sort of coast your

904
00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:21,759
Speaker 1: way through at the quarterback pos that you've got to

905
00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:23,759
Speaker 1: have somebody that can come in and make three or

906
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:24,840
Speaker 1: four game saving plays and.

907
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,359
Speaker 2: Not just run the ball. Like back in the day.

908
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:29,480
Speaker 2: You get away with that, right, You get away with

909
00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:32,400
Speaker 2: a quarterback that was an option read option guy, and

910
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:34,800
Speaker 2: you know a big part of the run game and

911
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:39,080
Speaker 2: you know pass sparingly. You need a You need throwers

912
00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:42,840
Speaker 2: to win in college football, just like you need throwers

913
00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:44,040
Speaker 2: to win in the NFL.

914
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:48,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think you need throwers, and you need

915
00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:50,839
Speaker 1: to either have a guy you're developing or a guy

916
00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:53,160
Speaker 1: that's already developed enough that you're coming right in and

917
00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:55,239
Speaker 1: saying we're winning right now. Like you can't have the

918
00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:58,279
Speaker 1: in between, you know, And there are rare moments like

919
00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:00,520
Speaker 1: you could make the argument, as we did on Yahoo

920
00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:02,920
Speaker 1: Sports this week, that Texas might have two number one

921
00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:05,919
Speaker 1: overall picks at the quarterback position. Quiches just played really

922
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:09,160
Speaker 1: well and arch Is, I mean arch Is arts right, like,

923
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 1: so you know that's such a rarity. But you better

924
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 1: have a plan because that's what Texas has and that's

925
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,279
Speaker 1: what you're competing against. You know, they the eyes of

926
00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:19,719
Speaker 1: Texas are on how much money those Nils have spent

927
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:22,200
Speaker 1: to get the guys in they've got, But look, it

928
00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:24,440
Speaker 1: doesn't matter at this point. That's what you're competing against.

929
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:26,879
Speaker 1: So you either got a guy, you're developing your guy,

930
00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:29,399
Speaker 1: or you are screwed in modern college football.

931
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:34,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, what do you make of speaking of quarterbacks

932
00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:37,880
Speaker 2: and I just referenced them, but I mean, you couldn't

933
00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:38,960
Speaker 2: play Bryce Shack anymore.

934
00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:44,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, and this is unfortunate because I genuinely believe that

935
00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:47,399
Speaker 1: the Panthers have done everything they can to ruin the kid,

936
00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:50,040
Speaker 1: and there are problems. There are problems with Bryce's game.

937
00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:53,080
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he doesn't have ownership in this, but

938
00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:55,400
Speaker 1: this is not a JaMarcus Russell, like Bryce got in

939
00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:57,520
Speaker 1: the league and just didn't really care. This is how

940
00:47:57,560 --> 00:47:59,719
Speaker 1: many voices can you put in the kids here we

941
00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:01,279
Speaker 1: can in a week out. And I think it's a

942
00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:03,319
Speaker 1: fair point right now to look around and say, oh, also,

943
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:06,200
Speaker 1: by the way, we've watched the reclamation of Sam Darnold

944
00:48:06,239 --> 00:48:08,600
Speaker 1: and the reclamation of Baker Mayfield. What are those guys

945
00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:11,160
Speaker 1: have in common? They were both quarterbacks for the Carolina

946
00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:13,479
Speaker 1: Panthers at one point Carolina let him out of the building.

947
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:17,120
Speaker 1: They can't. They can't develop or reclamate anybody, and that's

948
00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:18,480
Speaker 1: a weird.

949
00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:18,920
Speaker 2: Spot to be in.

950
00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:19,160
Speaker 4: Man.

951
00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:21,640
Speaker 1: Like, I just I think Dave Canalys is doing the

952
00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:24,400
Speaker 1: only thing Dave Canallis can do. The knock on Brice

953
00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:26,759
Speaker 1: coming out at Alabama, the only thing that I heard

954
00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:29,600
Speaker 1: negative from people around Alabama was that he struggled with

955
00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:32,560
Speaker 1: pre snap recognition and communication with the offensive line, so

956
00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:35,279
Speaker 1: Blitz could get him. Sometimes formations can get to me,

957
00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:37,000
Speaker 1: like he just got a little confused. He was gonna

958
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,480
Speaker 1: need work. I don't think they've given him that proper work.

959
00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:42,520
Speaker 1: That's absolutely haunting him right now. So they had to

960
00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:45,239
Speaker 1: take him out. But also the offensive line is played

961
00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:45,360
Speaker 1: for you.

962
00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:48,120
Speaker 2: I mean that in his size, right, I mean yeah, yeah,

963
00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:52,000
Speaker 2: that's a I mean that's something you can't come back from.

964
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:57,080
Speaker 2: Like if your pre stat recognition is not there and

965
00:48:57,239 --> 00:49:00,399
Speaker 2: you can't be able the same page protection of wives

966
00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:04,440
Speaker 2: calling out the protections, uh, and you're that size, well

967
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:06,399
Speaker 2: then you're never going to get throwing on those You're

968
00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:07,280
Speaker 2: gonna be a disaster.

969
00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:10,279
Speaker 1: Now. Throwing windows huge part of that. And I do

970
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:13,280
Speaker 1: think Carolina tried in the offseason by investing in veteran

971
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:17,120
Speaker 1: offensive linemen to help with that. It just hasn't happened.

972
00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:19,120
Speaker 1: And now you put Andy Dalton and looked. I think

973
00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 1: they were sort of damned if they do and damned

974
00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:23,439
Speaker 1: if they don't. I've watched the Raiders lose several games

975
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:25,360
Speaker 1: to bad teams that made a quarterback switch. So I

976
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:28,120
Speaker 1: understand that nothing is given in this league. But you

977
00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:30,640
Speaker 1: either were gonna put a quarterback in that struggles to

978
00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:33,600
Speaker 1: figure out, you know, where it's coming from against the

979
00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:36,640
Speaker 1: defense that sends it from everywhere, or you're putting in

980
00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:39,040
Speaker 1: an immobile quarterback that's a little older, that's seen a

981
00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:41,799
Speaker 1: lot of football. But now, boy, that offensive line better

982
00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:44,319
Speaker 1: hold up because if Max gets through, Andy Dalton ain't

983
00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:48,120
Speaker 1: gonna outrun him right like. So that that's the interesting part.

984
00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:50,360
Speaker 1: I think that the Panthers have what looks like a

985
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:53,000
Speaker 1: bad matchup if they're if their offensive line doesn't have

986
00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:53,840
Speaker 1: the game of their lives.

987
00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:59,600
Speaker 2: No, I think you're completely spot on. All right, let's

988
00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:03,480
Speaker 2: keep going on around the world of college now, So

989
00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:08,560
Speaker 2: here's your twenty big new kickoff Ohio State and Marshall.

990
00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 2: So we'll get to see Ohio State. What's your early

991
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:17,720
Speaker 2: impressions of Ohio State. Obviously in plenty body they wrecked

992
00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:22,440
Speaker 2: Akron fifty two to six, and then they wrecked Western

993
00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:27,719
Speaker 2: Michigan fifty six to nothing. Remember today, it's Marshall next

994
00:50:27,760 --> 00:50:33,279
Speaker 2: week at Michigan State, then it's a home Iowa, and

995
00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:38,520
Speaker 2: then finally Ohio State gets the test in Eugene on

996
00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:39,520
Speaker 2: October twelfth.

997
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:42,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think the hardest part is it because they

998
00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:44,640
Speaker 1: haven't played anybody. How do we know anything?

999
00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:45,160
Speaker 3: You know?

1000
00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:48,239
Speaker 1: And like I would love to keep they look great,

1001
00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:50,480
Speaker 1: they look great, They have athletes at every level. We

1002
00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:53,200
Speaker 1: know that, and Will Howard should be a decent quarterback

1003
00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:56,120
Speaker 1: for him. But like, man, do we know anything yet?

1004
00:50:56,480 --> 00:51:00,279
Speaker 1: And I'm not trying to be to avoid the question

1005
00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:03,200
Speaker 1: of the conversation, but you know, beating Akron in Western

1006
00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,720
Speaker 1: Michigan by an average of fifty something to three essentially,

1007
00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:10,239
Speaker 1: like what does that mean? It doesn't mean anything. Like

1008
00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:12,719
Speaker 1: they're gonna they're gonna run all over Marshall and put

1009
00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:14,839
Speaker 1: up a bunch of points and that means absolutely nothing.

1010
00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:18,200
Speaker 1: Michigan State. I don't think Michigan State's particularly good, but

1011
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:20,239
Speaker 1: Michigan State at this point is at least once a

1012
00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:24,359
Speaker 1: football games and you know, belongs in the conference. Like again,

1013
00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:25,880
Speaker 1: I don't I don't put a lot of weight in

1014
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:28,520
Speaker 1: Michigan State. I just don't think they're tested until they

1015
00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:31,440
Speaker 1: hit that run where it goes, you know, Oregon, Nebraska,

1016
00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:34,120
Speaker 1: Penn State, and that's a pretty brutal run. But even

1017
00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,640
Speaker 1: at that, they get a week off after Oregon before

1018
00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:39,480
Speaker 1: they take on Nebraska. So like it's just their schedule

1019
00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:42,720
Speaker 1: just lays out so pretty for them. I think Ohio

1020
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:45,360
Speaker 1: State's very good. I just don't think we've seen anything

1021
00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:46,239
Speaker 1: to know if they can.

1022
00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:49,320
Speaker 2: Be battle tested. I know it's funny in it. I

1023
00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:55,960
Speaker 2: mean it's it's the truth. You go, all right, they

1024
00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:59,320
Speaker 2: look nasty, but who are they? And I guess we

1025
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:03,520
Speaker 2: gotta wait for that game at Oregon. That'll tell us everything.

1026
00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:07,319
Speaker 1: I wish to college football. Gods, by the way, could

1027
00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:11,600
Speaker 1: come in and set like a scheduling standard and I

1028
00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:13,880
Speaker 1: don't care if that's you have to play, you know,

1029
00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:17,160
Speaker 1: a conference opponent in the first two weeks, Like, give

1030
00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:20,400
Speaker 1: me something that gives us some opportunity to see if

1031
00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:23,480
Speaker 1: these teams are any good because right now what the

1032
00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:25,880
Speaker 1: ap pole is doing and trying to figure out who's

1033
00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:31,400
Speaker 1: better between Texas, Georgia, Ohio State, Alabama. You know, do

1034
00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:33,800
Speaker 1: we have a real sense of any of that, because

1035
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:36,000
Speaker 1: the strength to schedule for all of them is so

1036
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:39,560
Speaker 1: wildly different. Who the hell knows, you know, And I

1037
00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:41,960
Speaker 1: don't think that's necessarily great for the game. Like, through

1038
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:44,680
Speaker 1: all of this, I'm not asking Ohio State to schedule

1039
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:46,799
Speaker 1: tougher out of conference. I think less and less teams

1040
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:49,279
Speaker 1: are gonna do that because your conferences are getting bigger

1041
00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:51,719
Speaker 1: and those schedules are gonna get tougher. So I'm not

1042
00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:54,040
Speaker 1: sitting here saying, well, the only answer is for Alabama

1043
00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:56,040
Speaker 1: to schedule a tough Big ten team early on, Like,

1044
00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:58,360
Speaker 1: I just don't think that's realistic. But there has to

1045
00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:00,839
Speaker 1: be some way to shift this schedule around. It doesn't

1046
00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:03,160
Speaker 1: give me Akron, Western, Michigan and Marshall and back to

1047
00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:04,080
Speaker 1: back to back weeks.

1048
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:09,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, I think you have to. Probably the

1049
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:16,040
Speaker 2: best early game is a very interesting one Oklahoma State

1050
00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:21,640
Speaker 2: and Utah, so cam Rising against the Cowboys. This is

1051
00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:26,480
Speaker 2: a this could be really good game. Utah has won

1052
00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:32,400
Speaker 2: at Utah State, they beat Baylor and Southern Utah and

1053
00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:36,320
Speaker 2: in Okie State they've beat They were all over Tulsa.

1054
00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:38,799
Speaker 2: Last week they beat Arkansas and over time and then

1055
00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:42,440
Speaker 2: they beat South Dakota State. So that's your that's your

1056
00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:46,680
Speaker 2: probably your your the afternoon game, it's four o'clock Eastern,

1057
00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:51,520
Speaker 2: one Pacific. Utah and Oklahoma State twelve against fourteen.

1058
00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:55,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, and look, Cam Rising got hurt earlier and he's

1059
00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:58,239
Speaker 1: going to be available as what everybody feels like. But

1060
00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:01,839
Speaker 1: Utah has been a little Lincoln Sate and the Big

1061
00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:04,600
Speaker 1: twelve is just sitting here screaming, somebody take over, somebody

1062
00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:07,399
Speaker 1: win this thing up. You know, So in Oklahoma States

1063
00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:09,960
Speaker 1: had a little bit of a struggle running the football so.

1064
00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:10,480
Speaker 2: Far this year.

1065
00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:12,480
Speaker 1: We know the identity of Utah is supposed to be

1066
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:16,560
Speaker 1: particularly physical. And this game is huge for the playoffs,

1067
00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:19,520
Speaker 1: right because you start thinking about what we expect from

1068
00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:22,759
Speaker 1: the Big twelve, there are so many teams that are

1069
00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:26,880
Speaker 1: going to absolutely just rise in the Big ten and

1070
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:29,320
Speaker 1: in the SEC. The Big twelve has really got to

1071
00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:31,800
Speaker 1: make statements, especially if they want any shot in a wildcard.

1072
00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:34,600
Speaker 1: Like I think that's where people keep talking about twelve

1073
00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:37,560
Speaker 1: playoff spots and I want to correct that mindset out

1074
00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:40,080
Speaker 1: of the gates, because what that really is is seven

1075
00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:43,919
Speaker 1: playoff spots because the Power four and the Group of five,

1076
00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:46,759
Speaker 1: you know, or the power Yeah, the powerful and the

1077
00:54:46,880 --> 00:54:49,160
Speaker 1: group of five are gonna take five of those spots.

1078
00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:52,200
Speaker 1: So there's only seven remaining spots. And then you start

1079
00:54:52,239 --> 00:54:55,320
Speaker 1: looking around and you're like, okay, let's quick math here, Like,

1080
00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:58,200
Speaker 1: if Ohio State wins a big ten, for example, well

1081
00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:01,239
Speaker 1: you still got organ and sitting around that looks like

1082
00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:03,520
Speaker 1: a you know, a playoff caliber team. Penn State sitting

1083
00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:06,719
Speaker 1: around that looks like a playoff caliber team. That list

1084
00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:09,279
Speaker 1: of USC could end up looking like a playoff caliber team.

1085
00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:12,880
Speaker 1: In the SEC, you're gonna have Tennessee and Alabama, presuming

1086
00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:16,000
Speaker 1: Georgia wins, you know in Texas. You just start doing

1087
00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:18,560
Speaker 1: the math and you're like, man, this gets really tough.

1088
00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:21,080
Speaker 1: So I think this game is pretty significant for everybody.

1089
00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:24,200
Speaker 1: Oklahoma's got to run the ball better. Their offensive line

1090
00:55:24,239 --> 00:55:26,960
Speaker 1: has really got to play well. Obviously, this is strength

1091
00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:30,600
Speaker 1: on strength Oklahoma State's offensive line versus Utah's defensive line. Like,

1092
00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:33,480
Speaker 1: I think this is just a slobber knocker of a

1093
00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:34,000
Speaker 1: football game.

1094
00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:36,920
Speaker 2: I cannot wait, Ah with you, completely with you. I

1095
00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:41,040
Speaker 2: think it's a terrific one. And then the best game

1096
00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:43,160
Speaker 2: of the night for the best game of the days

1097
00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:49,440
Speaker 2: at night and the Valves. Man, what a darling the

1098
00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:53,759
Speaker 2: early season darling. The Volves a six and a half

1099
00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:59,319
Speaker 2: point favorite in Norman tonight. I can't wait for that one.

1100
00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:05,319
Speaker 2: That's great on the Whites. Saturday Night Football, Tennessee, Oklahoma.

1101
00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:11,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, and and look my preseason I was asked for

1102
00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:14,960
Speaker 1: Yahoo to give a preseason playoff team that's a little

1103
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:17,160
Speaker 1: off the radar, and my pick was Tennessee. I'm not

1104
00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:19,200
Speaker 1: sure how off the radar they were nationally, but I

1105
00:56:19,320 --> 00:56:21,560
Speaker 1: just I think they're a playoff team, and the more

1106
00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:24,040
Speaker 1: we watch them, I think they're a national championship contender.

1107
00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:27,000
Speaker 1: Like we know what Josh Hippel, the head coach, that

1108
00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:29,279
Speaker 1: Tennessee can do to simplify an offense to help a

1109
00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:34,160
Speaker 1: quarter with. So Nico, IAmA Liavo. Yeah, I mean, Nico

1110
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:38,360
Speaker 1: is what we're gonna call him. Nico's good. He's gonna

1111
00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:40,040
Speaker 1: have to face a lot here. He's gonna have to

1112
00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:42,480
Speaker 1: be better in this game because he's had some bad

1113
00:56:42,520 --> 00:56:45,600
Speaker 1: early throws in games. While he settles down, Hypel's gonna

1114
00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:47,719
Speaker 1: have to make sure that that happens for Nico. I

1115
00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:50,360
Speaker 1: think he will, But the biggest story of Tennessee is

1116
00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:52,480
Speaker 1: not the offensive side of the ball. Like the difference

1117
00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:54,759
Speaker 1: between this version of Tennessee and what we saw a

1118
00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:57,399
Speaker 1: few years ago with Hendon Hooker is a few years

1119
00:56:57,440 --> 00:57:00,440
Speaker 1: ago Hypel had to make sure that Hooker and Hiatt

1120
00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:03,719
Speaker 1: were just points points points points points. This version of

1121
00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:07,400
Speaker 1: Tennessee plays defense with a lot of speed and explosiveness,

1122
00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:10,279
Speaker 1: Like they swarm as quickly on the defensive side of

1123
00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:11,880
Speaker 1: the ball as they do on the offensive side of

1124
00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:13,960
Speaker 1: the ball. Like I think Tennessee is playing some of

1125
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:16,280
Speaker 1: the best team defense we're seeing in the country right now.

1126
00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:19,720
Speaker 1: I think they're absolutely going to just destroy Oklahoma. This

1127
00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:22,400
Speaker 1: is a wild did you win? You win?

1128
00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:25,400
Speaker 2: Dude? I feel the same way I look at him, going, man,

1129
00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:26,640
Speaker 2: I love Tennessee tonight.

1130
00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:27,560
Speaker 1: I do.

1131
00:57:27,760 --> 00:57:30,480
Speaker 2: I you know, I think they're begging you to try

1132
00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:34,080
Speaker 2: to take Oklahoma at home, and I think the matchup

1133
00:57:34,280 --> 00:57:36,640
Speaker 2: is all Tennessee, all foals.

1134
00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:42,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, and this becomes the awakening moment for Tennessee nationally.

1135
00:57:42,320 --> 00:57:44,720
Speaker 1: As much as you mentioned there, Darling, I think people

1136
00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:47,080
Speaker 1: are still a little bit reserved to go all in

1137
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:49,440
Speaker 1: on them. But if you look at this, you know

1138
00:57:49,520 --> 00:57:51,480
Speaker 1: they've got this Oklahoma game, which will be a big,

1139
00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:53,880
Speaker 1: big moment for him. They still have on this schedule

1140
00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:58,320
Speaker 1: Alabama and Georgia. Right now, I think they're playing better

1141
00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:00,680
Speaker 1: football on both sides of the ball. Can like, if

1142
00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:04,080
Speaker 1: we're talking about complimentary football. I think right now Tennessee's

1143
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 1: playing better football than Georgia, and Georgia's offense is out

1144
00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:08,680
Speaker 1: of sync. So I'm not willing to sit here and

1145
00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:11,360
Speaker 1: just hand the SEC or the SEC East over to

1146
00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:13,520
Speaker 1: Georgia until we see Georgia get better and play the

1147
00:58:13,560 --> 00:58:15,480
Speaker 1: way that they should play, and we need to see

1148
00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:17,000
Speaker 1: a bit of a drop off from Tennessee. I think

1149
00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:20,040
Speaker 1: Tennessee has a real shot at winning the SEC East.

1150
00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:23,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I'm with you. I agree. All Right, fella's

00:58:56,880 --> 00:59:00,360
Speaker 2: let me ask you a quick question about just about

1161
00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:08,080
Speaker 2: public decorum. All right, are you obligated to acknowledge someone

1162
00:59:08,240 --> 00:59:12,120
Speaker 2: in the elevator because I see a lot of like

1163
00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:16,320
Speaker 2: a non acknowledgment of people in the elevator and it's

1164
00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:18,440
Speaker 2: starting to bug the elevator attquate.

1165
00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:21,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like I always just naturally like hey,

1166
00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:24,200
Speaker 1: Like I'm a friendly guy, so I feel like I

1167
00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:25,760
Speaker 1: just naturally kind of go to that.

1168
00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:29,800
Speaker 2: Go to that spot right, Like do you like, like,

1169
00:59:30,120 --> 00:59:32,920
Speaker 2: I don't know why it bugs me that you feel

1170
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:35,800
Speaker 2: like you need to look at your phone the whole

1171
00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:38,440
Speaker 2: time without even put your head up to give me

1172
00:59:38,560 --> 00:59:42,440
Speaker 2: a nod or to you know, like if you're pressing

1173
00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:47,200
Speaker 2: the button, Like if you're in first, don't you go

1228
01:02:03,040 --> 01:02:04,840
Speaker 1: I don't like your grandma that much, I don't want

1229
01:02:04,840 --> 01:02:07,000
Speaker 1: to hear a conversation about her, Like I don't want

1230
01:02:07,040 --> 01:02:09,720
Speaker 1: to hear you talk your kids.

1231
01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:12,600
Speaker 2: Right, it's paid enough for your You hear the one

1232
01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:15,320
Speaker 2: side of the conversation. Now you got to hear both

1233
01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:18,520
Speaker 2: sides of the conversation, and it's like why.

1234
01:02:18,800 --> 01:02:21,240
Speaker 1: Why and and then you've got like, on top of that,

1235
01:02:21,360 --> 01:02:24,320
Speaker 1: the person's obviously barely paying attention to whatever they're doing

1236
01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:25,880
Speaker 1: because they've got their phone in front of them and

1237
01:02:25,920 --> 01:02:27,840
Speaker 1: they're facetiming while it's happened, Like it feels like this

1238
01:02:28,000 --> 01:02:30,320
Speaker 1: is always a FaceTime thing. And I'm like, you're you're

1239
01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:32,680
Speaker 1: walking through the mall. You don't need to FaceTime while

1240
01:02:32,680 --> 01:02:35,360
Speaker 1: you're walking through the mall, Like it's just just pull

1241
01:02:35,360 --> 01:02:37,640
Speaker 1: your head out of your phone and go ahead and

1242
01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:39,920
Speaker 1: walk around and if you need, if you need some

1243
01:02:40,000 --> 01:02:42,400
Speaker 1: advice on what to buy, then pull off to the

1244
01:02:42,480 --> 01:02:46,400
Speaker 1: side and FaceTime somebody look at it with your headphones in,

1245
01:02:46,640 --> 01:02:48,320
Speaker 1: and then move about the day, like I don't want

1246
01:02:48,320 --> 01:02:50,240
Speaker 1: to have to figure out if I'm navigating around.

1247
01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:54,400
Speaker 2: You, dude, it's so funny. You were You were exactly

1248
01:02:54,600 --> 01:02:57,200

1252
01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:05,800
Speaker 1: just loud and obnoxious, that's fine if you want to

1253
01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:08,160
Speaker 1: be loud and obnoxious. If you pull out your phone

1254
01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:10,439
Speaker 1: because you want to post on social media how loud

1255
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:13,360
Speaker 1: and obnoxious you are chanting or you know, screaming on

1263
01:03:34,480 --> 01:03:40,760
Speaker 1: if you're je Jet Jet, it's the worst. It is

1264
01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:44,480
Speaker 1: the worst. Like, and I'll be honest, you know, this

1265
01:03:44,600 --> 01:03:46,840
Speaker 1: will surprise a lot of people. As much as I

1266
01:03:46,960 --> 01:03:49,240
Speaker 1: have made lifelong diehard Raders fan, as you well know,

1267
01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:51,240
Speaker 1: and it as much as it is a fabric of

1268
01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:54,120
Speaker 1: my being, I am one of the least likely people

1269
01:03:54,200 --> 01:03:56,280
Speaker 1: you will ever meet in your life to just see

1270
01:03:56,280 --> 01:03:59,600
Speaker 1: another fan and scream red from across the room. I'm

1271
01:03:59,600 --> 01:04:02,400

1272
01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:05,600
Speaker 1: everybody else in the universe, and it makes me uncomfortable

1273
01:04:05,600 --> 01:04:07,960
Speaker 1: as hell. If I'm walking through because I'm always wearing

1274
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:10,320
Speaker 1: a raid or something. If I'm walking, you know, down

1275

1331
01:06:55,000 --> 01:06:55,920

Speaker 2: to live by.

1335
01:07:06,200 --> 01:07:09,680
Speaker 1: And look, I'm just gonna be honest. If you don't

1336
01:07:09,800 --> 01:07:12,320
Speaker 1: have a friend in your life that will look at

1337
01:07:12,360 --> 01:07:14,880
Speaker 1: you and be like whoa man you have? Let yourself go?

1338
01:07:15,360 --> 01:07:17,280
Speaker 1: Then you need to find that friend. You need a

1339
01:07:17,320 --> 01:07:20,560
Speaker 1: friend that will be honest. Like when you know, when

1340
01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:22,280
Speaker 1: a group of girls comes out and one of them

1341
01:07:22,360 --> 01:07:24,760
Speaker 1: just looks awful, my first thought is like her friend's

1342
01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:26,600
Speaker 1: let her down. She didn't let herself down, like her

1343
01:07:26,640 --> 01:07:29,200
Speaker 1: friend's let her down. If I'm walking around and I've

1344
01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:31,560
Speaker 1: got something hanging out of my nose and nobody tells me,

1345
01:07:32,040 --> 01:07:33,880
Speaker 1: my friends let me down, Like you've got to have

1346
01:07:34,040 --> 01:07:36,040
Speaker 1: somebody in your friend group that will look at you

1347
01:07:36,040 --> 01:07:38,520
Speaker 1: and be like, hey man, rest thank and it's like, okay,

1350
01:07:42,280 --> 01:07:44,800
Speaker 1: have that friend. I feel like we're being that friend

1351
01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:47,480
Speaker 1: for people that just need to hear the hard way, Like, hey,

1352
01:07:48,280 --> 01:07:51,680
Speaker 1: you're fifty three years old. You don't need to yell

1353
01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:55,280
Speaker 1: jets across the plane because you're headed to a game.

1354
01:07:55,440 --> 01:08:00,240

01:09:07,680 --> 01:09:11,400
Speaker 2: in Bangkock and and this has happened to.

1375
01:09:11,400 --> 01:09:15,040
Speaker 1: Me repeatedly in my life, walking through airports or different countries.

1376
01:09:15,479 --> 01:09:17,640
Speaker 1: And I think the right way to handle it is,

1377
01:09:18,560 --> 01:09:22,880
Speaker 1: uh like, for me, if I can't get to them,

1378
01:09:22,960 --> 01:09:24,320
Speaker 1: if I if like I can get to them, I'm

1379
01:09:24,360 --> 01:09:25,880
Speaker 1: gonna throw my hand way up in the air for

1380
01:09:25,920 --> 01:09:27,960
Speaker 1: an awkward high five. I mean like let's go, and

1381
01:09:28,080 --> 01:09:30,040
Speaker 1: that's it, Like it's two guys, quick interaction.

1382
01:09:30,200 --> 01:09:30,439
Speaker 2: Let's go.

1383
01:09:30,520 --> 01:09:34,040
Speaker 1: Doesn't disrupt anybody else with the up up nod like

1384
01:09:34,120 --> 01:09:35,479
Speaker 1: the quick, the chin up in the air like the

1385
01:09:35,560 --> 01:09:37,719
Speaker 1: quick like hey, what's up brother? Like that that moment,

1386
01:09:37,800 --> 01:09:41,720
Speaker 1: liked the acknowledgment. Sure if if we cannot see each other,

1387
01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:44,080
Speaker 1: then no, I'm just gonna like I'm gonna do the

1388
01:09:44,160 --> 01:09:45,960
Speaker 1: up nod and like a smile. I mean like, yeah,

1389
01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:48,479
Speaker 1: we got this. I might say from the distance like

1390
01:09:48,600 --> 01:09:51,240
Speaker 1: let's go. It may like that there's like go raiders,

1391
01:09:51,360 --> 01:09:55,360
Speaker 1: like that's it. I'm not going to yell in this

1392
01:09:55,479 --> 01:09:58,160
Speaker 1: big disruptive way for everybody else that's at the you know,

1393
01:09:58,360 --> 01:10:00,880
Speaker 1: street market in Germany. It's just not you know, like

1394
01:10:01,479 --> 01:10:05,080
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna ruin somebody else. I'm not gonna do it.

1395
01:10:05,240 --> 01:10:06,880
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do it. I'm not gonna ruin somebody

1396
01:10:06,880 --> 01:10:08,240
Speaker 1: else's October Fest. I'm not.

1397
01:10:10,720 --> 01:10:10,760
Speaker 3: Like.

1398
01:10:11,680 --> 01:10:14,200
Speaker 1: It's just it's a weird phenomenon to me.

1399
01:10:14,280 --> 01:10:20,000
Speaker 2: Like I will tell part I too love football fans, right, yeah,

1400
01:10:20,520 --> 01:10:26,240
Speaker 2: like I do. I love them. I love the boisterous

1401
01:10:26,680 --> 01:10:29,519
Speaker 2: like being. I love how they're boisterous I do. I

1402
01:10:29,680 --> 01:10:34,120
Speaker 2: have to admit I love that. I appreciate them, and

1403
01:10:34,600 --> 01:10:41,800
Speaker 2: I often find the football fan meets the non sports

1404
01:10:41,880 --> 01:10:47,960
Speaker 2: fan is a fascinating just from a sociological standpoint, it's

1405
01:10:48,120 --> 01:10:53,960
Speaker 2: fascinating to watch because invariably the non sports fan looks

1406
01:10:54,160 --> 01:10:57,360
Speaker 2: down on the football fan as a haughty from like

1407
01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:01,800
Speaker 2: being hawny. Would you agree? I agree?

1408
01:11:01,880 --> 01:11:05,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think the phenomenon here because certainly I've

1409
01:11:05,080 --> 01:11:08,160
Speaker 1: toured with and know many people in entertainment that just

1410
01:11:08,240 --> 01:11:11,439
Speaker 1: aren't football fans, are sports fans. And the number of

1411
01:11:11,479 --> 01:11:13,080
Speaker 1: times you hear like I just don't get it, and

1412
01:11:13,200 --> 01:11:15,880
Speaker 1: it's like, okay, Like there's a difference between I don't

1413
01:11:15,960 --> 01:11:19,720
Speaker 1: get it and I'm going to I'm going to belittle it.

1414
01:11:19,920 --> 01:11:22,719
Speaker 1: And that's the line like, look, I don't get opera

1415
01:11:23,040 --> 01:11:24,920
Speaker 1: and I was a class coal musician for most of

1416
01:11:24,960 --> 01:11:29,200
Speaker 1: my childhood. I don't get opera. But if you do

1417
01:11:30,040 --> 01:11:33,559
Speaker 1: and you come in and you're like, man, I love opera.

1418
01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:36,800
Speaker 1: I cannot wait to listen to Wagner the Ring Cycle.

1419
01:11:36,840 --> 01:11:39,639
Speaker 1: That's an opera. Firenced guys, look it up. If that's

1420
01:11:39,680 --> 01:11:41,920
Speaker 1: where you are with that, I am not going to

1421
01:11:41,960 --> 01:11:43,360
Speaker 1: look at you and be like, you know, I just

1422
01:11:43,920 --> 01:11:46,680
Speaker 1: that's stupid. I don't understand you opera people like, I'm

1423
01:11:46,720 --> 01:11:48,680
Speaker 1: just not going to do that. I'm probably going to

1424
01:11:48,720 --> 01:11:51,080
Speaker 1: be the guy that's like, well, you know, it's it's

1425
01:11:51,120 --> 01:11:53,400
Speaker 1: not something i've really connected with, but if you want

1426
01:11:53,400 --> 01:11:54,960
Speaker 1: to go, I'll go with you and I'll try it out.

1427
01:11:55,080 --> 01:11:57,479
Speaker 1: And like, I'll go and I'll be super into it,

1428
01:11:57,640 --> 01:11:59,439
Speaker 1: and if I don't like it, I'll tell you afterwards,

1429
01:11:59,439 --> 01:12:00,960
Speaker 1: but I'll do it that. It's like, hey, that's not

1430
01:12:01,080 --> 01:12:04,519
Speaker 1: for me, but like totally cool, Like I just I

1431
01:12:04,800 --> 01:12:08,680
Speaker 1: don't understand. If you're not into sports, that's fine. What

1432
01:12:08,800 --> 01:12:11,400
Speaker 1: I don't understand is why there has to be condescension

1433
01:12:11,479 --> 01:12:12,200
Speaker 1: with that announcement.

1434
01:12:12,720 --> 01:12:16,639
Speaker 2: But isn't it like a true wisdom? They look down

1435
01:12:16,720 --> 01:12:19,439
Speaker 2: on us, there is, and they look down on us.

1436
01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:23,120
Speaker 1: For me, it's like, okay, if you're super into theater,

1437
01:12:23,200 --> 01:12:26,519
Speaker 1: if you're super into music, if you're super into sports,

1438
01:12:26,560 --> 01:12:29,680
Speaker 1: if you're super into credit card points, I don't care.

1439
01:12:29,840 --> 01:12:32,080
Speaker 1: Whatever it is that, whatever your thinking is that gets

1440
01:12:32,080 --> 01:12:35,200
Speaker 1: you camarader like, whatever it is that brings you together

1441
01:12:35,280 --> 01:12:39,000
Speaker 1: with your buddies, go for it. Like I really like

1442
01:12:39,120 --> 01:12:41,439
Speaker 1: playing cards and I like board games like that sort

1443
01:12:41,479 --> 01:12:43,640
Speaker 1: of thing. Like I really like you give me the

1444
01:12:43,760 --> 01:12:45,760
Speaker 1: choice between going out and raging at a bar or

1445
01:12:45,800 --> 01:12:48,320
Speaker 1: sitting at home with a bunch of friends and playing catchphrase.

1446
01:12:48,560 --> 01:12:51,559
Speaker 1: I would rather do catchphrase. But that's okay. Like if

1447
01:12:51,640 --> 01:12:53,120
Speaker 1: if you're the type that still needs to go to

1448
01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:55,880
Speaker 1: the bar and just rage, okay, I'm not here to

1449
01:12:56,000 --> 01:12:58,479
Speaker 1: judge that. I just don't know why, why why everybody

1450
01:12:58,520 --> 01:13:01,840
Speaker 1: has to put such behind it. It's like, oh, I

1451
01:13:01,880 --> 01:13:04,799
Speaker 1: don't understand. I do not get you guys with football.

1452
01:13:04,800 --> 01:13:06,760
Speaker 1: And it's like, okay, I think are there people that

1453
01:13:06,880 --> 01:13:07,439
Speaker 1: take it too far?

1454
01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:07,920
Speaker 2: Yes?

1455
01:13:08,080 --> 01:13:10,639
Speaker 1: Have I been one of those people before? Absolutely, I'm

1456
01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:12,840
Speaker 1: the first to admit it. Does it normalize in life?

1457
01:13:12,880 --> 01:13:14,800
Speaker 1: I think as you get older for most people it does,

1458
01:13:15,040 --> 01:13:18,600
Speaker 1: like you reprioritize some things. But also, if there's this

1459
01:13:19,360 --> 01:13:22,439
Speaker 1: fellowship in brotherhood that brings us all together, why does

1460
01:13:22,479 --> 01:13:24,840
Speaker 1: it matter? Like, if you don't like it, then just

1461
01:13:24,880 --> 01:13:26,599
Speaker 1: stay out of the way of it. Why does it matter?

1462
01:13:26,920 --> 01:13:32,040
Speaker 2: Look what football's doing in New Orleans saving lives. There

1463
01:13:32,120 --> 01:13:34,519
Speaker 2: has been a murder. It's an amazing store. I'll give

1464
01:13:34,520 --> 01:13:36,280
Speaker 2: it to you. On the on the other side, where

01:14:42,880 --> 01:14:48,600
Speaker 2: get off the air. Uh all right, Bri, you had a.

1482
01:14:48,680 --> 01:14:53,560
Speaker 8: Question for us, Oh I was it was about the

1483
01:14:53,600 --> 01:14:57,400
Speaker 8: airport thing that we were talking about off air, Yes, yes,

1484
01:14:58,000 --> 01:15:00,960
Speaker 8: so it was about when you're walking through the airport.

1485
01:15:01,080 --> 01:15:03,639
Speaker 8: If somebody is walking towards you and they're on their phone,

1486
01:15:04,640 --> 01:15:07,400
Speaker 8: is it appropriate just to keep walking or.

1487
01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:09,560
Speaker 2: Well that's what I do.

1488
01:15:09,760 --> 01:15:11,800
Speaker 8: I keep walking and I just let them bump into

1489
01:15:11,880 --> 01:15:14,240
Speaker 8: me because I'm like, you should be aware of your surroundings,

1490
01:15:14,479 --> 01:15:16,960
Speaker 8: which maybe isn't the most a polite thing all the time.

1491
01:15:18,080 --> 01:15:20,880
Speaker 1: I think if they're heads in their phone and they're

1492
01:15:20,920 --> 01:15:22,800
Speaker 1: walking in the airport and they don't see you or

1493
01:15:22,920 --> 01:15:25,920
Speaker 1: the mall anywhere, really my answer is just to scream

1494
01:15:25,960 --> 01:15:28,439
Speaker 1: heads up, like I'm not moving. I'm just screaming heads

1495
01:15:28,520 --> 01:15:31,120
Speaker 1: up right before so that they their jarred and they

1496
01:15:31,200 --> 01:15:32,640
Speaker 1: look like that. That's the thing me.

1497
01:15:33,160 --> 01:15:38,720
Speaker 2: You know, she's taking the charge I am.

1498
01:15:39,720 --> 01:15:42,240
Speaker 1: She's going straight like Ron Hextall in the eighties. It's

1499
01:15:42,280 --> 01:15:48,160
Speaker 1: just like charge charge. I will say this too, I am.

1500
01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:51,840
Speaker 1: I am the type to condescendingly after I've been bumped

1501
01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:54,640
Speaker 1: into loudly say maybe if you kept your head out

1502
01:15:54,680 --> 01:15:56,720
Speaker 1: of your damn phone, Like I am the guy that

1503
01:15:56,840 --> 01:15:59,200
Speaker 1: does that. I'll lookmit that like I got passive aggressive

1504
01:15:59,240 --> 01:16:01,120
Speaker 1: from my mom. She passed it down to me, so

1505
01:16:01,320 --> 01:16:03,479
Speaker 1: like I'm the type to do that for sure, And I.

1506
01:16:03,520 --> 01:16:06,120
Speaker 8: Give the dirty look and I'm like, see, what what

1507
01:16:06,240 --> 01:16:08,040
Speaker 8: are you doing? Why'd you bump into me? Like I

1508
01:16:08,160 --> 01:16:10,400
Speaker 8: you know, and I put the blame on them because

1509
01:16:10,439 --> 01:16:13,000
Speaker 8: it is there. It is their fault, right, Like I

1510
01:16:13,280 --> 01:16:15,479
Speaker 8: just took the hit because I'm I'm not going to

1511
01:16:15,560 --> 01:16:18,040
Speaker 8: go out of my way and move just because you're

1512
01:16:18,120 --> 01:16:21,960
Speaker 8: not paying attention. So that was something that I.

1513
01:16:22,360 --> 01:16:24,680
Speaker 1: Also went through a stage like in my life, you know,

1514
01:16:24,720 --> 01:16:26,800
Speaker 1: because there was a stage in my life where I

1515
01:16:26,800 --> 01:16:29,040
Speaker 1: felt like every time somebody knocked into they just said

1516
01:16:29,120 --> 01:16:31,519
Speaker 1: my bad, and I'm like, really, you had to clarify

1517
01:16:31,600 --> 01:16:33,559
Speaker 1: that that was your bad. Like you could say I'm sorry,

1518
01:16:33,640 --> 01:16:35,479
Speaker 1: but if you say my bad, I'm just like, obviously

1519
01:16:35,560 --> 01:16:37,479
Speaker 1: it's your bad. I was walking and you bumped into me.

1520
01:16:37,760 --> 01:16:40,280
Speaker 1: So I went into a stage where whenever that happened

1521
01:16:40,280 --> 01:16:42,519
Speaker 1: and it was an obvious my bad situation, I would

1522
01:16:42,560 --> 01:16:44,760
Speaker 1: just loudly say you're bad, like just to just.

1523
01:16:44,800 --> 01:16:45,519
Speaker 2: Let them all rule.

1524
01:16:45,520 --> 01:16:48,640
Speaker 1: It's like, oh no, that's great. Look, there was a

1525
01:16:48,720 --> 01:16:51,600
Speaker 1: really confrontational version of me fifteen twenty years ago that

1526
01:16:51,640 --> 01:16:54,640
Speaker 1: doesn't exist anymore. That's just kind of you know, it

1527
01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:56,400
Speaker 1: was out there. So yeah, I'll admit that.

1528
01:16:57,200 --> 01:17:00,160
Speaker 2: All right. I like you too, I love it. You

01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:09,160
Speaker 2: that's good, that's great.

1532
01:17:10,080 --> 01:17:11,840
Speaker 1: Cousin is never gonna want to travel with us because

1533
01:17:11,880 --> 01:17:13,360
Speaker 1: he feels like he's gonna have to actually be the

1534
01:17:13,439 --> 01:17:14,400

Speaker 2: Anyway. Uh oh, you guys correct for me. Uh So,

Speaker 2: tonight's gonna be great because I'm really looking forward to tennis. See.

1550
01:18:00,280 --> 01:18:04,080
Speaker 2: I love Tennessee. I think Tennessee is really good. So

1551
01:18:04,120 --> 01:18:07,320
Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to that game. I mean, obviously watching

1552
01:18:07,560 --> 01:18:11,439
Speaker 2: Arch play. Now they got Monroe, Louisiana Monroe, so it's not,

1553
01:18:11,680 --> 01:18:14,439
Speaker 2: you know, the big opponent, but Arch makes it must

1554
01:18:14,560 --> 01:18:18,800
Speaker 2: CTV watching Arch Manning. Give me another game that you're

1555
01:18:18,840 --> 01:18:19,960
Speaker 2: looking forward to today.

1556
01:18:20,040 --> 01:18:22,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I know we already talked about, but I

1557
01:18:22,120 --> 01:18:25,160
Speaker 1: think the Utah Oklahoma stake is the game that also

1558
01:18:25,360 --> 01:18:27,120
Speaker 1: really stands out to me. I think that's good. But

1559
01:18:27,240 --> 01:18:30,120
Speaker 1: also Missouri's taken on Vandy. And I'm not saying Vandy's

1560
01:18:30,120 --> 01:18:32,439
Speaker 1: any good. I'm just I'm just curious what Missouri continues

1561
01:18:32,479 --> 01:18:32,880
Speaker 1: to look like.

1562
01:18:33,080 --> 01:18:37,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, when you think about UCLA, I because like

1563
01:18:37,880 --> 01:18:40,960
Speaker 2: this could be an LSU beat down. We'll continue the

1583
01:19:52,920 --> 01:19:54,680
Speaker 5: I was. I think it was a little before. We've

1584
01:19:54,720 --> 01:19:57,120
Speaker 5: worked together Fits before, but like you know it on

1585
01:19:57,320 --> 01:19:59,519
Speaker 5: this particular show. I used to be on the board

1586
01:19:59,520 --> 01:20:03,120
Speaker 5: and I used to harass Gargano constantly, pretty much him

1587
01:20:03,160 --> 01:20:03,519
Speaker 5: and Figy.

1588
01:20:05,160 --> 01:20:07,160
Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's probably but you know that

1589
01:20:07,400 --> 01:20:10,080
Speaker 2: you don't want you don't call me by my last name,

1590
01:20:10,920 --> 01:20:12,080
Speaker 2: no cuz, excuse me.

1591
01:20:12,160 --> 01:20:13,160
Speaker 7: It's been it's been a minute.

1592
01:20:13,200 --> 01:20:17,120
Speaker 2: It's been a minute, and buddy, whatever you want to call,

1593
01:20:17,280 --> 01:20:19,519
Speaker 2: but not by our last name. Not by the last name.

1594
01:20:19,560 --> 01:20:22,400
Speaker 2: I hate that. Unless you're my coach. I don't want

1595
01:20:22,400 --> 01:20:22,920
Speaker 2: to hear you call me.

1596
01:20:23,080 --> 01:20:25,320
Speaker 5: That's that's so different for me growing up in the

1597
01:20:25,360 --> 01:20:27,960
Speaker 5: Midwest and having like everyone it's you know, you never

1598
01:20:28,040 --> 01:20:30,360
Speaker 5: get first name, it's just last name because it's easier

1599
01:20:30,439 --> 01:20:31,240
Speaker 5: to identify by.

1600
01:20:31,920 --> 01:20:32,439
Speaker 2: It's funny.

1601
01:20:32,840 --> 01:20:35,080
Speaker 1: I haven't been called Jason for most of my adult

1602
01:20:35,400 --> 01:20:37,320
Speaker 1: or for most of my life. I mean, there were

1603
01:20:37,360 --> 01:20:39,640
Speaker 1: six Jason F's in my sixth grade class. So that

1604
01:20:39,720 --> 01:20:41,320
Speaker 1: was the first time that I ever got fits and

1605
01:20:41,400 --> 01:20:42,600
Speaker 1: it's still were left after that.

1606
01:20:42,760 --> 01:20:42,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1607
01:20:43,760 --> 01:20:46,519
Speaker 2: Well, but again we talked about this. FITZI is a

1608
01:20:46,640 --> 01:20:51,640
Speaker 2: perfect nickname though, because it still has that endearing quality

1609
01:20:51,760 --> 01:20:56,400
Speaker 2: to it and it's not just fits, Like I don't

1610
01:20:56,560 --> 01:21:00,679
Speaker 2: like just fits. I like FITZI. I think it makes

1611
01:21:00,760 --> 01:21:03,479
Speaker 2: it more endearing and lovable.

1612
01:21:04,680 --> 01:21:07,639
Speaker 1: There's a magic to I like that. Yeah, Like certainly,

1613
01:21:07,680 --> 01:21:11,040
Speaker 1: whenever whenever somebody's like Jason, I'm like, whoa, we got

1614
01:21:11,720 --> 01:21:13,639
Speaker 1: what we're doing here? Like did something happen?

1615
01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:13,920
Speaker 3: Like?

1616
01:21:14,439 --> 01:21:18,800
Speaker 1: Am I in trouble? I mean the middle name? Are

1617
01:21:18,880 --> 01:21:19,599
Speaker 1: we pulling that out?

1618
01:21:19,680 --> 01:21:20,320
Speaker 3: Like? What are we doing?

1619
01:21:20,680 --> 01:21:24,439
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, I like it all right. So a couple

1620
01:21:24,479 --> 01:21:26,880
Speaker 2: of things. One I got to answer this because one

1621
01:21:26,920 --> 01:21:30,160
Speaker 2: of the big stories of the week before we get

1622
01:21:30,160 --> 01:21:31,599
Speaker 2: to the NFL. I I a lot to go through

1623
01:21:31,720 --> 01:21:33,920
Speaker 2: with the card, but that one of the big stories

1624
01:21:33,960 --> 01:21:38,640
Speaker 2: of the week was the ultimate woj bomb dropped the

1625
01:21:38,760 --> 01:21:43,600
Speaker 2: mic so Adrian Woodronowski, who I used to work with

1626
01:21:43,720 --> 01:21:48,920
Speaker 2: in New York. Uh, woj leaves, he becomes the pre

1627
01:21:49,040 --> 01:21:54,400
Speaker 2: eminent NBA reporter. God bless killing it right, woj bombs.

1628
01:21:55,200 --> 01:21:57,560
Speaker 2: You wanted to know what's going on in the association.

1629
01:21:58,520 --> 01:22:04,960
Speaker 2: The woje is the man, and he leaves to become

1630
01:22:05,360 --> 01:22:12,519
Speaker 2: GM of the Saint Bonaventure men's basketball program. Now he's

1631
01:22:13,400 --> 01:22:18,040
Speaker 2: a Saint Bonnie alum, and he leaves to do the

1632
01:22:18,400 --> 01:22:23,439
Speaker 2: h to become the GM of the program, which you

1633
01:22:23,520 --> 01:22:26,879
Speaker 2: know again, this this new role of GM in college

1634
01:22:26,960 --> 01:22:32,439
Speaker 2: sports is a real deal. And uh, I applaud him.

1635
01:22:33,320 --> 01:22:36,799
Speaker 1: What do you think, FITZI, Well, I think it's amazing

1636
01:22:36,840 --> 01:22:40,040
Speaker 1: when you've got somebody that, you know, according to reports,

1637
01:22:40,120 --> 01:22:42,960
Speaker 1: got ten million dollars a year to be uh, you know,

1638
01:22:43,040 --> 01:22:46,040
Speaker 1: an NBA insider and really was a newsmaker. There aren't

1639
01:22:46,120 --> 01:22:49,439
Speaker 1: very many newsmakers left in sports media, right, and he's

1640
01:22:49,479 --> 01:22:52,559
Speaker 1: a newsmaker. But one thing that's clear, and I've worked

1641
01:22:52,560 --> 01:22:55,320
Speaker 1: with Woljes a bunch Wlch is a good friend. For

1642
01:22:55,439 --> 01:22:57,800
Speaker 1: my time at ESPN. One thing that was always clear

1643
01:22:57,840 --> 01:22:59,880
Speaker 1: about Wolves was his love for the Bonnies, right, And

1644
01:23:00,160 --> 01:23:03,160
Speaker 1: so to me, you look at somebody that put in

1645
01:23:03,280 --> 01:23:06,040
Speaker 1: the work and did the grind and has these relationships

1646
01:23:06,080 --> 01:23:07,519
Speaker 1: and he looks around at some point and he's like, man,

1647
01:23:07,560 --> 01:23:09,519
Speaker 1: I've made enough money that I never have to work again.

1648
01:23:09,880 --> 01:23:12,120
Speaker 1: What do I want to do? And so I wasn't

1649
01:23:12,160 --> 01:23:14,920
Speaker 1: surprised because it was Saint Bonnie. He's like, if it

1650
01:23:14,960 --> 01:23:16,800
Speaker 1: had been some other school or some other random job,

1651
01:23:16,840 --> 01:23:18,800
Speaker 1: I probably would have been shocked. But the minute you

1652
01:23:18,840 --> 01:23:21,439
Speaker 1: saw that come out, it's like, yep, this only makes sense.

1653
01:23:21,520 --> 01:23:25,400
Speaker 1: And think about Wojes and his connections, right, Like I mean, obviously,

1654
01:23:25,400 --> 01:23:28,200
Speaker 1: if you're Saint Bonavitz usally gonna miss his donations because

1655
01:23:28,240 --> 01:23:31,200
Speaker 1: he can't donate now as the GM, But I'm sure

1656
01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:34,920
Speaker 1: that given his connections it's going to help. Also his

1657
01:23:35,080 --> 01:23:37,640
Speaker 1: ability just to connect people around the league, Like his

1658
01:23:37,760 --> 01:23:40,000
Speaker 1: ability to know the league. If you if you're a

1659
01:23:40,040 --> 01:23:41,600
Speaker 1: kid and you're trying to figure out where where to

1660
01:23:41,600 --> 01:23:44,080
Speaker 1: play ball and you want to play somewhere that you

1661
01:23:44,240 --> 01:23:46,719
Speaker 1: know can give you insight into what the NBA's thinking

1662
01:23:47,200 --> 01:23:50,240
Speaker 1: Woch can do that right, So you know, it's a

1663
01:23:50,320 --> 01:23:53,160
Speaker 1: huge moment for him personally, and it's going to be

1664
01:23:53,200 --> 01:23:55,040
Speaker 1: a huge thing for ESPN to try and figure out

1665
01:23:55,040 --> 01:23:57,400
Speaker 1: how to feel like if Sham's just got a lot richer.

1666
01:23:57,520 --> 01:23:59,800
Speaker 1: I will say that because whether ESPN gets some or not,

1667
01:24:00,479 --> 01:24:02,840
Speaker 1: when his contracts over, there will be a bidding war

1668
01:24:02,920 --> 01:24:05,120
Speaker 1: for the next to the next best insider in the business.

1669
01:24:06,200 --> 01:24:10,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, you got that front. God bless. I started

1670
01:24:10,720 --> 01:24:13,320
Speaker 2: thinking back to my days as a reporter. I'm thinking

1671
01:24:14,280 --> 01:24:17,240
Speaker 2: I liked all sports, so I was one of these

1672
01:24:17,280 --> 01:24:20,000
Speaker 2: I love all sports, and I'm thinking myself, Man, I'm

1673
01:24:20,000 --> 01:24:22,479
Speaker 2: an idiot. I should have just picked one and just

1674
01:24:22,560 --> 01:24:23,160
Speaker 2: stayed with it.

1675
01:24:25,680 --> 01:24:28,759
Speaker 1: It's just it's crazy that, you know, you've got basically

1676
01:24:29,320 --> 01:24:32,479
Speaker 1: one major insider in every sport that just has become

1677
01:24:32,960 --> 01:24:36,000
Speaker 1: synonymous thro the sport. They give the news out like

1678
01:24:36,080 --> 01:24:36,879
Speaker 1: it's it's everything.

1679
01:24:37,240 --> 01:24:40,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's It's pretty wild. But I'll ask you

1680
01:24:40,720 --> 01:24:44,040
Speaker 2: this because I would love I was talking about this

1681
01:24:44,200 --> 01:24:48,679
Speaker 2: before Wojes announced he was doing this on my show

1682
01:24:50,240 --> 01:24:53,160
Speaker 2: last week. There was actually a week before less I

1683
01:24:53,240 --> 01:24:58,920
Speaker 2: was messing around. My goal is to take over one

1684
01:24:59,240 --> 01:25:04,320
Speaker 2: of the schools the smaller schools in the Philadelphia area

1685
01:25:04,960 --> 01:25:10,960
Speaker 2: colleges and try to build a college football program. So

1686
01:25:11,120 --> 01:25:15,720
Speaker 2: there's a school Westchester or the University of Delaware that

1687
01:25:15,960 --> 01:25:20,400
Speaker 2: are like borderline D one D two schools, and my

1688
01:25:20,640 --> 01:25:24,560
Speaker 2: goal is now to take one of those schools and

1689
01:25:24,800 --> 01:25:29,479
Speaker 2: then knowing, like to Michael Rubin of the Fanatics, right,

1690
01:25:30,160 --> 01:25:33,680
Speaker 2: get start getting people like that. You and I did

1691
01:25:33,840 --> 01:25:38,840
Speaker 2: the Fanatics Fest at the Garden at.

1692
01:25:38,760 --> 01:25:42,200
Speaker 1: The At in New York a couple of weeks ago

1693
01:25:42,640 --> 01:25:43,200
Speaker 1: at the convention.

1694
01:25:44,160 --> 01:25:47,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I want to do like I want to

1695
01:25:47,920 --> 01:25:52,080
Speaker 2: use the NIL money to build the program. Like the

1696
01:25:52,240 --> 01:25:55,719
Speaker 2: beauty of where we stand now is with the portal

1697
01:25:55,920 --> 01:26:00,800
Speaker 2: and the NIL money. If you got big time donors,

1698
01:26:01,760 --> 01:26:06,679
Speaker 2: you're in, like you could build the program a real program. Yeah.

1699
01:26:06,720 --> 01:26:09,240
Speaker 1: I mean that's the funny thing that the power that

1700
01:26:09,280 --> 01:26:11,439
Speaker 1: comes in all of this is that you can you

1701
01:26:11,520 --> 01:26:16,280
Speaker 1: can win anywhere if you are willing to financially invest

1702
01:26:16,360 --> 01:26:19,160
Speaker 1: in it, you know, And that's that's just real. So

1703
01:26:19,720 --> 01:26:22,160
Speaker 1: that's empowering, and basketball particularly, you got to pay the

1704
01:26:22,240 --> 01:26:24,120
Speaker 1: right guys. I mean, I keep going back to this,

1705
01:26:24,200 --> 01:26:26,559
Speaker 1: but a few weeks ago, you know, Nick Saban said

1706
01:26:26,600 --> 01:26:28,439
Speaker 1: on College Game Day in a really powerful moment. They

1707
01:26:28,479 --> 01:26:30,360
Speaker 1: were talking about NIL and he said, just make sure

1708
01:26:30,400 --> 01:26:32,599
Speaker 1: you pay the right guys, because if you don't, you're

1709
01:26:32,720 --> 01:26:34,439
Speaker 1: s out of luck. And you know, he said that

1710
01:26:34,520 --> 01:26:36,519
Speaker 1: live on air, and I thought, man, that is an

1711
01:26:36,520 --> 01:26:38,840
Speaker 1: important part of this, Like you really have to have

1712
01:26:38,960 --> 01:26:41,479
Speaker 1: a talent evaluator to make sure you're getting the right people.

1713
01:26:41,560 --> 01:26:45,120
Speaker 1: But right, man, if you get the right people, good lord.

1714
01:26:45,240 --> 01:26:46,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like, I mean, well that's why I want to

1715
01:26:46,920 --> 01:26:49,160
Speaker 2: do it. Like I know I can. I have the eye,

1716
01:26:50,400 --> 01:26:54,920
Speaker 2: so so I want to do this right, Like I

1717
01:26:55,040 --> 01:26:56,559
Speaker 2: want to create I want to take one of these.

1718
01:26:56,920 --> 01:27:00,519
Speaker 2: Now I'm you know, involved in youth football and so

1719
01:27:00,760 --> 01:27:03,360
Speaker 2: I I already have my eye on talent.

1720
01:27:05,920 --> 01:27:11,600
Speaker 1: I mean that's the funny thing is like there's so

1721
01:27:11,720 --> 01:27:15,200
Speaker 1: much value added for schools to have people like this,

1722
01:27:15,520 --> 01:27:17,639
Speaker 1: Like it's just going to be a bigger and bigger

1723
01:27:17,720 --> 01:27:20,400
Speaker 1: part of how things move forward. And one thing that

1724
01:27:20,600 --> 01:27:22,920
Speaker 1: we saw in major college football that I think will

1725
01:27:22,960 --> 01:27:26,439
Speaker 1: impact every level of college football and really makes even

1726
01:27:26,520 --> 01:27:29,240
Speaker 1: more NIL attainable is Tennessee's decision to add a ten

1727
01:27:29,280 --> 01:27:32,679
Speaker 1: percent surcharge on season tickets to go towards a collective

1728
01:27:32,840 --> 01:27:34,639
Speaker 1: And to me, that's brilliant.

1729
01:27:34,840 --> 01:27:35,000
Speaker 3: You know.

1730
01:27:35,080 --> 01:27:36,960
Speaker 1: I know some fans have freaked out about it, but

1731
01:27:37,160 --> 01:27:40,719
Speaker 1: to me, like, it's almost like when stadiums are built

1732
01:27:40,720 --> 01:27:42,840
Speaker 1: and they have a tax on the stadium for any

1733
01:27:42,880 --> 01:27:45,640
Speaker 1: ticket that's sold there, And again people hate that too,

1734
01:27:45,680 --> 01:27:47,280
Speaker 1: and they're like, well, why is there a tax? Well

1735
01:27:47,479 --> 01:27:49,560
Speaker 1: to taxing the people that are actually using it. So

1736
01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:52,040
Speaker 1: it's a smart way to say, hey, we're gonna we're

1737
01:27:52,080 --> 01:27:54,719
Speaker 1: going to just cook this into our season ticket prices.

1738
01:27:55,200 --> 01:27:57,400
Speaker 1: And if we have one hundred thousand people that buy

1739
01:27:57,479 --> 01:27:59,760
Speaker 1: tickets and all of them are giving X amount of

1740
01:27:59,760 --> 01:28:01,840
Speaker 1: dollars the game, that adds up pretty quickly on being

1741
01:28:01,880 --> 01:28:04,160
Speaker 1: able to make sure that you can continue to pay

1742
01:28:04,240 --> 01:28:05,960
Speaker 1: the top talent that's going to be a part of

1743
01:28:06,000 --> 01:28:09,200
Speaker 1: this process moving forward. So there are so many smart

1744
01:28:09,240 --> 01:28:12,960
Speaker 1: ways to figure out how to raise money. Now all

1745
01:28:12,960 --> 01:28:14,400
Speaker 1: you got to do is figure out the right place

1746
01:28:14,439 --> 01:28:15,360
Speaker 1: to spend that money.

1747
01:28:16,360 --> 01:28:18,080
Speaker 2: Right. That's where I come in as the GM.

1748
01:28:20,080 --> 01:28:22,920
Speaker 1: I like, this can be Can I be the assistant GM?

1749
01:28:23,400 --> 01:28:24,479
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I would love that.

1750
01:28:25,240 --> 01:28:27,800
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Like I'll just handle all the I'll handle

1751
01:28:27,840 --> 01:28:30,120
Speaker 1: all the minutia and everything. And I will say too,

1752
01:28:30,479 --> 01:28:33,320
Speaker 1: It's interesting because my buddy Adam Brenneman. We work together

1753
01:28:33,400 --> 01:28:36,760
Speaker 1: on the College Football Power Hour on Yaho's Sports. He

1754
01:28:36,920 --> 01:28:38,519
Speaker 1: was a college football coach for a little bit with

1755
01:28:39,280 --> 01:28:43,880
Speaker 1: Arizona Arizona State, former Penn State player. But Brennaman was

1756
01:28:43,920 --> 01:28:46,479
Speaker 1: talking the other day on social media about modern coaching

1757
01:28:47,200 --> 01:28:51,479
Speaker 1: is eighty percent recruiting and twenty percent developing, and if

1758
01:28:51,560 --> 01:28:54,680
Speaker 1: you are a great recruiter, you will move up the

1759
01:28:55,960 --> 01:28:58,920
Speaker 1: ladder incredibly quickly in college sports. I do think that

1760
01:28:59,040 --> 01:29:01,360
Speaker 1: there is something to just having somebody that knows how

1761
01:29:01,360 --> 01:29:03,439
Speaker 1: to read the room and identify with kids. You know, like,

1762
01:29:04,080 --> 01:29:08,040
Speaker 1: these are going to become interesting positions aside from coaching,

1763
01:29:08,080 --> 01:29:11,000
Speaker 1: because we used to assistant coaches also being recruiters. I

1764
01:29:11,080 --> 01:29:13,639
Speaker 1: think we're going to look at full front offices sooner

1765
01:29:13,720 --> 01:29:16,880
Speaker 1: than later, and probably at some point some level of

1766
01:29:16,920 --> 01:29:19,920
Speaker 1: a salary cap for all of college football as they

1767
01:29:20,000 --> 01:29:23,040
Speaker 1: figure out how to normalize this. But yeah, building a

1768
01:29:23,160 --> 01:29:25,640
Speaker 1: front office of people that are handling the logistics is

1769
01:29:26,240 --> 01:29:28,519
Speaker 1: going to be important. And as I've said repeatedly, if

1770
01:29:28,560 --> 01:29:30,560
Speaker 1: I ran a school right now, I would start a

1771
01:29:30,640 --> 01:29:33,439
Speaker 1: department that was the nil department, where I would have

1772
01:29:34,200 --> 01:29:36,479
Speaker 1: law majors that want to learn how to become agents.

1773
01:29:36,479 --> 01:29:39,240
Speaker 1: I'd have them in there. I'd have marketing people in there,

1774
01:29:39,280 --> 01:29:42,040
Speaker 1: I'd have people, social media people in there. Everybody getting

1775
01:29:42,040 --> 01:29:44,639
Speaker 1: their degrees and learning how to work specifically with athletes

1776
01:29:44,880 --> 01:29:47,559
Speaker 1: towards helping athletes build their brand, which would, by the way,

1777
01:29:47,640 --> 01:29:51,200
Speaker 1: create connections that would create future livelihood for everybody. Imagine

1778
01:29:51,240 --> 01:29:53,600
Speaker 1: how many kids could become agents because they met a

1779
01:29:53,640 --> 01:29:56,479
Speaker 1: football player at Temple. And by the way, I was

1780
01:29:56,520 --> 01:29:59,400
Speaker 1: part of the NIL department and I got my degree

1781
01:29:59,520 --> 01:30:02,400
Speaker 1: in law as an agent, and you know, with an

1782
01:30:02,520 --> 01:30:05,360
Speaker 1: NIL major at Temple, So now I understand what it's

1783
01:30:05,400 --> 01:30:07,000
Speaker 1: like to be a sports agent. And this is a

1784
01:30:07,040 --> 01:30:08,880
Speaker 1: social media guy we could hire. Like you could do

1785
01:30:09,000 --> 01:30:10,840
Speaker 1: all of that as a school right now if you

1786
01:30:10,920 --> 01:30:12,120
Speaker 1: were forward thinking.

1787
01:30:12,360 --> 01:30:19,479
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, without a doubt, spot on, Yeah, I love it.

1788
01:30:19,560 --> 01:30:23,600
Speaker 2: I love the like to me, it's one thing, you know,

1789
01:30:23,920 --> 01:30:27,559
Speaker 2: the recruiting is one thing. It's like to me, now

1790
01:30:27,720 --> 01:30:33,120
Speaker 2: the onus is truly the talent evaluator. Like I get

1791
01:30:33,320 --> 01:30:37,120
Speaker 2: there's X amount of kids and you know, if you're

1792
01:30:37,760 --> 01:30:40,720
Speaker 2: like you do you do some stuff for rivals, right

1793
01:30:41,360 --> 01:30:44,200
Speaker 2: and so like you see some of the elite, you know,

1794
01:30:44,280 --> 01:30:47,800
Speaker 2: blue chip talent. There's a lot of talent. Man, there's

1795
01:30:47,840 --> 01:30:50,120
Speaker 2: a lot of talent out there, and if you're a

1796
01:30:50,200 --> 01:30:54,760
Speaker 2: good evaluator. Besides just people put the recruiting aside because

1797
01:30:54,920 --> 01:30:58,720
Speaker 2: you have the money right to pay them. But if

1798
01:30:58,760 --> 01:31:02,040
Speaker 2: you can identify the talent and put together a team,

1799
01:31:02,840 --> 01:31:06,000
Speaker 2: because there's one thing just to go. I'm Georgia and

1800
01:31:06,120 --> 01:31:09,920
Speaker 2: I'm going to go collect the ten bests, oh you know,

1801
01:31:10,080 --> 01:31:13,320
Speaker 2: d line and the ten best you know, you know,

1802
01:31:13,600 --> 01:31:18,800
Speaker 2: the six best linebackers, and I'm going to stockpile. But

1803
01:31:18,960 --> 01:31:20,920
Speaker 2: now it's different because I think there's going to be

1804
01:31:21,000 --> 01:31:24,360
Speaker 2: more competition for players, and it's going to take a

1805
01:31:24,520 --> 01:31:29,320
Speaker 2: discerning eye to understand how to build a team and

1806
01:31:29,479 --> 01:31:31,920
Speaker 2: where you spend your money in the sellar gap because

1807
01:31:32,000 --> 01:31:34,760
Speaker 2: before you just go it's a race to get as

1808
01:31:34,840 --> 01:31:38,439
Speaker 2: many as much talent as possible. But now you actually

1809
01:31:38,600 --> 01:31:40,759
Speaker 2: have to pay the right people.

1810
01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:44,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's such a huge part of it, because

1811
01:31:45,880 --> 01:31:47,920
Speaker 1: it's one thing. If you're churning and burning and there's

1812
01:31:47,960 --> 01:31:50,240
Speaker 1: no money involved, all right, no harm, no foul. You

1813
01:31:50,280 --> 01:31:51,960
Speaker 1: get the wrong kid and get them out. Who cares.

1814
01:31:52,720 --> 01:31:55,080
Speaker 1: There's going to be a limited number of Buddy Garrity's

1815
01:31:55,120 --> 01:31:57,160
Speaker 1: out there Friday night lights that want to spend money

1816
01:31:57,560 --> 01:32:00,640
Speaker 1: on quarterbacks that aren't getting playtime. So I just I

1817
01:32:00,760 --> 01:32:03,320
Speaker 1: do think that at some point, you know, because there

1818
01:32:03,360 --> 01:32:06,320
Speaker 1: are there are major college football programs right now that

1819
01:32:06,439 --> 01:32:10,000
Speaker 1: haven't that have a total NIO budget of less than

1820
01:32:10,040 --> 01:32:12,720
Speaker 1: a million dollars for their entire roster. So you're going

1821
01:32:12,800 --> 01:32:14,720
Speaker 1: to have to turn around and say, Okay, if I

1822
01:32:14,760 --> 01:32:16,880
Speaker 1: have less than a million dollars, I better be really

1823
01:32:16,960 --> 01:32:19,400
Speaker 1: spot on with whoever I bring into this team. I

1824
01:32:19,479 --> 01:32:22,960
Speaker 1: got to use every dollar wisely. So I do agree

1825
01:32:23,000 --> 01:32:25,240
Speaker 1: that talent evaluators, you're going to see more and more,

1826
01:32:25,680 --> 01:32:27,920
Speaker 1: you know, gms too, Like we always see coaches in

1827
01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:29,599
Speaker 1: the college game and ask what they look like at

1828
01:32:29,600 --> 01:32:31,240
Speaker 1: the pros. I think you're going to see more and

1829
01:32:31,280 --> 01:32:34,360
Speaker 1: more front office than scounting people going to college football

1830
01:32:34,360 --> 01:32:34,920
Speaker 1: for that reason.

1831
01:32:35,960 --> 01:32:40,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, totally, totally right. Yeah, I just think it, and

1832
01:32:40,600 --> 01:32:43,920
Speaker 2: I think it's so fascinating. I love this new world

1833
01:32:43,960 --> 01:32:46,400
Speaker 2: of college football. I'm like so into it. I just

1834
01:32:46,479 --> 01:32:49,840
Speaker 2: think it's it's got so much good stuff, so much

1835
01:32:49,880 --> 01:32:52,040
Speaker 2: good stuff to In fact, buddy of mine, who was

1836
01:32:52,120 --> 01:32:58,080
Speaker 2: working with the Eagles as Howie Roseman's top guy, left

1837
01:32:58,960 --> 01:33:03,439
Speaker 2: to start his own company to consult with with a

1838
01:33:03,520 --> 01:33:08,479
Speaker 2: bunch of the schools. He's consulting with Oklahoma, Nebraska and

1839
01:33:08,640 --> 01:33:10,320
Speaker 2: how to build the front office.

1840
01:33:12,240 --> 01:33:16,040
Speaker 1: So the funny thing too, is like that's the beginning

1841
01:33:16,479 --> 01:33:18,400
Speaker 1: and then schools are going to start looking and say, Okay,

1842
01:33:18,400 --> 01:33:20,320
Speaker 1: if we outsource it, it costs this much. If we

1843
01:33:20,400 --> 01:33:22,519
Speaker 1: bring it in house, it costs this much. Right, Like,

1844
01:33:22,600 --> 01:33:24,599
Speaker 1: So it's just these are the layers in the levels.

1845
01:33:24,800 --> 01:33:26,439
Speaker 1: Like college football is going to look so different in

1846
01:33:26,479 --> 01:33:30,479
Speaker 1: five years. I can't wait for it totally. I love change.

1847
01:33:30,720 --> 01:33:34,120
Speaker 1: I embrace the change in all of this chaos. Yeah,

1848
01:33:34,240 --> 01:33:36,160
Speaker 1: and for everybody that sits there, it's just like ah,

1849
01:33:36,200 --> 01:33:40,719
Speaker 1: I mean, like, look, in the modern college sports environment,

1850
01:33:41,000 --> 01:33:43,240
Speaker 1: your team can be as competitive as their wallace want

1851
01:33:43,280 --> 01:33:45,800
Speaker 1: to be so. Like, as a UNLV fan growing up

1852
01:33:45,840 --> 01:33:49,519
Speaker 1: for UNLB basketball, all UNLV has to do for basketball

1853
01:33:49,600 --> 01:33:52,560
Speaker 1: to be really competitive is get all those casinos to

1854
01:33:52,600 --> 01:33:54,679
Speaker 1: pop a little bit of money into an nil kitty

1855
01:33:54,960 --> 01:33:57,640
Speaker 1: and then identify some talent. They could win national championships.

1856
01:33:57,680 --> 01:34:00,439
Speaker 1: If Vegas wants to win Natties, they can. I love

1857
01:34:00,520 --> 01:34:02,960
Speaker 1: that level of empowered. If Vandy really wants to be

1858
01:34:03,040 --> 01:34:06,360
Speaker 1: a great football team, they can go to their alumni base,

1859
01:34:06,400 --> 01:34:08,760
Speaker 1: which by the way, has done very well financially, and

1860
01:34:08,840 --> 01:34:11,839
Speaker 1: they can say, Okay, we want to be successful in football,

1861
01:34:11,920 --> 01:34:14,840
Speaker 1: let's build a collective. Like all of these things are attainable.

1862
01:34:14,920 --> 01:34:15,040
Speaker 2: Now.

1863
01:34:15,120 --> 01:34:17,240
Speaker 1: It's not just well we don't have Nick Saban so

1864
01:34:17,320 --> 01:34:19,040
Speaker 1: we can't compete. No, no, no no. If you've got

1865
01:34:19,080 --> 01:34:20,240
Speaker 1: the pockets, you can compete.

1866
01:34:21,000 --> 01:34:25,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, spot on, All right, We've got lots of

1867
01:34:25,280 --> 01:34:29,360
Speaker 2: storylines go over in the NFL, so let's do that

1868
01:34:29,680 --> 01:34:38,280
Speaker 2: coming up next. And also the specter of Bellichack. He's around, man,

1869
01:34:39,600 --> 01:34:44,760
Speaker 2: every coach that's feeling heat, he's around, and he's not shy.

1870
01:34:46,160 --> 01:34:51,599
Speaker 2: He's actually incredible on the air too. It's amazing. Where

1886
01:35:55,720 --> 01:36:03,040
Speaker 2: How about this? This is interesting. My just had it.

1887
01:36:04,040 --> 01:36:11,000
Speaker 2: So in New Orleans here it is. This is awesome.

1888
01:36:11,680 --> 01:36:17,679
Speaker 2: New Orleans has gone eighteen days without a murder. Crime

1889
01:36:17,800 --> 01:36:23,360
Speaker 2: experts say it's the longest stint in years and it

1890
01:36:23,560 --> 01:36:28,400
Speaker 2: has to do with the belief that it's football. So

1891
01:36:28,680 --> 01:36:35,400
Speaker 2: Derek Carr and the Saints putting a bite into crime

1892
01:36:36,280 --> 01:36:43,599
Speaker 2: like McGruff, and I think it's a great story. Violent

1893
01:36:43,880 --> 01:36:48,400
Speaker 2: crime went down in the city of Philadelphia two years

1894
01:36:48,439 --> 01:36:51,800
Speaker 2: ago during the Phillies run and the Eagles, when the

1895
01:36:51,840 --> 01:36:54,400
Speaker 2: Eagles were off the really good start and the Phillies

1896
01:36:54,439 --> 01:36:59,120
Speaker 2: were doing their Red October World Series run. Violent crime

1897
01:36:59,200 --> 01:37:03,240
Speaker 2: went down to z Era and we see murder with

1898
01:37:03,400 --> 01:37:09,120
Speaker 2: the murder rate falling into New Orleans. Sports can have

1899
01:37:09,360 --> 01:37:12,280
Speaker 2: that kind of impact on local society.

1900
01:37:12,800 --> 01:37:14,760
Speaker 1: No, I mean when you say that way, it's so

1901
01:37:15,120 --> 01:37:17,240
Speaker 1: stunning when you think about it, and you're right, and

1902
01:37:18,000 --> 01:37:21,479
Speaker 1: it's amazing what it does for community. Also, I don't

1903
01:37:21,479 --> 01:37:23,760
Speaker 1: know if you saw this, but if you look at

1904
01:37:23,840 --> 01:37:26,360
Speaker 1: Derek Carr's career, this was out on X this week

1905
01:37:26,439 --> 01:37:29,719
Speaker 1: and true, no, no, if you look at Derek Carran

1906
01:37:29,760 --> 01:37:33,559
Speaker 1: election years, Derek carrn election years is an MVP candidate sixteen,

1907
01:37:33,600 --> 01:37:37,040
Speaker 1: twenty and twenty four, there is something weird, Like I

1908
01:37:37,080 --> 01:37:40,800
Speaker 1: don't know what happens to DC in election years, but

1909
01:37:40,960 --> 01:37:44,479
Speaker 1: it absolutely it hits different. It hits different for sure.

1910
01:37:44,600 --> 01:37:46,920
Speaker 1: So it's amazing how all of this has come together.

1911
01:37:46,960 --> 01:37:48,439
Speaker 1: And Brie, by the way, on our show, a big

1912
01:37:48,520 --> 01:37:51,160
Speaker 1: Saints fan, I owe her a mea culport because I

1913
01:37:51,560 --> 01:37:54,160
Speaker 1: definitely thought that this was the like it's going to

1914
01:37:54,200 --> 01:37:57,200
Speaker 1: come back to earth, the Saints aren't that good whatever whatever.

1915
01:37:57,479 --> 01:37:59,559
Speaker 1: Boy was I wrong, because I mean, my god, New

1916
01:37:59,680 --> 01:38:03,920
Speaker 1: Orleans absolutely just hammering people right now. So you know,

1917
01:38:04,160 --> 01:38:07,480
Speaker 1: kudos to the way they're playing there, and just incredible

1918
01:38:07,560 --> 01:38:11,320
Speaker 1: to think that it has that level of impact to

1919
01:38:11,880 --> 01:38:14,800
Speaker 1: an entire city. But there's a different joy when when

1920
01:38:14,840 --> 01:38:17,240
Speaker 1: your team's good. There's definitely a different joy. I think

1921
01:38:17,240 --> 01:38:18,240
Speaker 1: we can all agree on that.

1922
01:38:19,080 --> 01:38:21,519
Speaker 2: No, I think it's beautiful. Hey, one to have a

1923
01:38:21,600 --> 01:38:24,120
Speaker 2: think a a car, I thought you were going here.

1924
01:38:25,640 --> 01:38:29,960
Speaker 2: I'm sorry I had the wrong I'll get to it later.

1925
01:38:30,040 --> 01:38:35,360
Speaker 2: That's a Baker Mayfield piece. The thing about teams doing

1926
01:38:35,560 --> 01:38:40,920
Speaker 2: well in a community and that it does such good

1927
01:38:41,680 --> 01:38:45,759
Speaker 2: has such a major impact on the spirit that people

1928
01:38:45,920 --> 01:38:51,760
Speaker 2: feel good about themselves, that the community rises, that there's

1929
01:38:51,840 --> 01:38:59,240
Speaker 2: an uptick and polite behavior. It's a fascinating study. Man, Listen,

1930
01:39:00,000 --> 01:39:05,920
Speaker 2: Sports saves lives, Sports builds churches. I love. I'm a

1931
01:39:06,040 --> 01:39:08,599
Speaker 2: big believer in it, man. I think there's a lot

1932
01:39:08,640 --> 01:39:09,479
Speaker 2: of goodness there.

1933
01:39:10,840 --> 01:39:11,000
Speaker 3: Man.

1934
01:39:11,280 --> 01:39:15,960
Speaker 1: That's it's wild to think that that has that level

1935
01:39:16,000 --> 01:39:18,479
Speaker 1: of impact. Like it it's hard to imagine you're right,

1936
01:39:18,600 --> 01:39:20,519
Speaker 1: and then numbers bear it out. It's just hard to

1937
01:39:21,320 --> 01:39:22,640
Speaker 1: conceptualize that, you.

1938
01:39:22,680 --> 01:39:25,640
Speaker 2: Know, like to to well, think about it though it

1939
01:39:26,080 --> 01:39:35,960
Speaker 2: fosters uh happiness, togetherness. Yeah, I mean that community feeling

1940
01:39:36,800 --> 01:39:40,960
Speaker 2: is real, Like, yeah, how it is you're more apt

1941
01:39:41,080 --> 01:39:45,400
Speaker 2: to do right by your neighbor. Like It's it's odd,

1942
01:39:46,400 --> 01:39:49,680
Speaker 2: but sports is such a big deal in our society

1943
01:39:50,400 --> 01:39:52,320
Speaker 2: that it that it can have that kind of impact.

1944
01:39:52,360 --> 01:39:54,920
Speaker 2: But let's let's let's be real about something too.

1945
01:39:55,680 --> 01:39:55,800
Speaker 3: Uh.

1946
01:39:56,000 --> 01:39:58,880
Speaker 2: In an era when organized religion is probably at its

1947
01:39:58,960 --> 01:40:03,479
Speaker 2: lowest in our lifetime time. The biggest religion, the biggest

1948
01:40:04,040 --> 01:40:09,519
Speaker 2: organic gathering of souls is by sports fans is by

1949
01:40:09,600 --> 01:40:15,680
Speaker 2: football fans. It's you know, they gather at stadiums, they

1950
01:40:15,760 --> 01:40:20,400
Speaker 2: gather in parking lots, they gather in houses. There is food,

1951
01:40:21,160 --> 01:40:25,479
Speaker 2: there is togetherness. I mean, it's tell me that that's

1952
01:40:25,560 --> 01:40:26,080
Speaker 2: not church.

1953
01:40:27,320 --> 01:40:29,840
Speaker 1: I mean everything you've just described one hundred percent. And

1954
01:40:30,560 --> 01:40:32,799
Speaker 1: I lived a lot of that. Like a really special

1955
01:40:32,840 --> 01:40:34,880
Speaker 1: moment my life was covering the Preds the year that

1956
01:40:34,920 --> 01:40:37,599
Speaker 1: they went to the Stanley Cup Final and just seeing

1957
01:40:37,680 --> 01:40:40,519
Speaker 1: the way that Nashville came together. It's funny to me

1958
01:40:40,640 --> 01:40:44,639
Speaker 1: that so many people that they're just sort of casual

1959
01:40:44,880 --> 01:40:49,400
Speaker 1: whatever hockey knowledge, people don't even realize that the Preds

1960
01:40:49,400 --> 01:40:51,640
Speaker 1: at one point were on the precipice of moving. The

1961
01:40:51,720 --> 01:40:54,759
Speaker 1: relocation was real and nobody was going to that arena,

1962
01:40:55,280 --> 01:40:57,880
Speaker 1: And then you think about where it is now or

1963
01:40:57,920 --> 01:41:00,599
Speaker 1: where it's gone to in that era that I covered,

1964
01:41:01,040 --> 01:41:03,840
Speaker 1: watching the entire community come together for street parties where

1965
01:41:03,840 --> 01:41:06,680
Speaker 1: people were just absolutely slammed into the Concourse area and

1966
01:41:06,760 --> 01:41:08,720
Speaker 1: up and down the lower broad just to watch a

1967
01:41:08,800 --> 01:41:11,080
Speaker 1: hockey team. And it made friends out of enemies. Like

1968
01:41:11,200 --> 01:41:14,120
Speaker 1: that's that's the craziest thing about what can happen when

1969
01:41:14,160 --> 01:41:16,280
Speaker 1: it feels like you're sitting in the middle the middle

1970
01:41:16,280 --> 01:41:19,320
Speaker 1: of a magical moment. And I don't know, like somebody

1971
01:41:19,360 --> 01:41:21,040
Speaker 1: smarter than me would know the answer to this, But

1972
01:41:21,560 --> 01:41:23,960
Speaker 1: I don't know that that's the case if you're you know,

1973
01:41:24,560 --> 01:41:27,000
Speaker 1: a Celtics fan or a Patriots fan, Like if you're

1974
01:41:27,000 --> 01:41:28,679
Speaker 1: in a city that wins all the time, blah blah

1975
01:41:28,720 --> 01:41:31,960
Speaker 1: blah blah blah. But there is a a moment here

1976
01:41:32,040 --> 01:41:34,519
Speaker 1: where you know you you have to look at it

1977
01:41:34,560 --> 01:41:36,680
Speaker 1: and say, when it happens once and it's magical when

1978
01:41:36,720 --> 01:41:39,080
Speaker 1: it when you have that that first moment, and when

1979
01:41:39,360 --> 01:41:41,840
Speaker 1: an unexpected moment, it definitely draws people together.

1980
01:41:42,800 --> 01:41:43,519
Speaker 2: It just stoles.

1981
01:41:43,640 --> 01:41:43,800
Speaker 1: Man.

1982
01:41:45,360 --> 01:41:50,479
Speaker 2: I love it. I absolutely love it all right. Story

1983
01:41:50,600 --> 01:41:53,840
Speaker 2: the Saints, Now, let's look on the field. How real

1984
01:41:54,560 --> 01:41:59,880
Speaker 2: is New Orleans? They go in and absolutely annihilate the

1985
01:42:00,160 --> 01:42:02,400
Speaker 2: Cowboys on the road.

1986
01:42:02,720 --> 01:42:02,960
Speaker 3: Man.

1987
01:42:03,840 --> 01:42:07,320
Speaker 2: They have a great running game with Camara, who has

1988
01:42:07,400 --> 01:42:13,000
Speaker 2: built life behind a rebuilt offensive line, and they have

1989
01:42:13,200 --> 01:42:19,240
Speaker 2: two great receivers. I love a lave and Shaheed is

1990
01:42:19,360 --> 01:42:23,080
Speaker 2: one of the just fastest players. He can run through

1991
01:42:23,120 --> 01:42:26,360
Speaker 2: a cover two and there's a lot of space on

1992
01:42:26,439 --> 01:42:29,280
Speaker 2: the field. How real? And they have a good defense,

1993
01:42:30,000 --> 01:42:32,320
Speaker 2: So how real are the Saints?

1994
01:42:33,080 --> 01:42:36,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I think the biggest thing about the Saints

1995
01:42:36,120 --> 01:42:39,120
Speaker 1: that's studdying to me is their efficiency offensively right now?

1996
01:42:39,280 --> 01:42:41,519
Speaker 1: You know, so how real are they? I think we

1997
01:42:41,640 --> 01:42:44,760
Speaker 1: get a big answer to that because there is going

1998
01:42:44,840 --> 01:42:48,639
Speaker 1: to be a hone in on Alvin Kamara. Do anything

1999
01:42:48,680 --> 01:42:50,200
Speaker 1: you can to take him out of the game plan

2000
01:42:50,320 --> 01:42:52,080
Speaker 1: and see if Olave and kar can still beat you.

2001
01:42:52,160 --> 01:42:53,439
Speaker 1: That is going to be a real part of what

2002
01:42:53,520 --> 01:42:54,679
Speaker 1: we see over the next few weeks.

2003
01:42:54,720 --> 01:42:54,880
Speaker 2: Now.

2004
01:42:55,680 --> 01:42:57,800
Speaker 1: Carr has had his issues in the red zone. I

2005
01:42:57,840 --> 01:42:59,960
Speaker 1: think everybody knows that it's been really well covered for

2006
01:43:00,120 --> 01:43:03,800
Speaker 1: a long time. So I'm wondering, has that suddenly been

2007
01:43:03,880 --> 01:43:06,000
Speaker 1: solved a new offensive coordinator suddenly he has found the

2008
01:43:06,640 --> 01:43:09,639
Speaker 1: trick to that, don't I don't know, but man, as

2009
01:43:09,720 --> 01:43:11,439
Speaker 1: well as they're playing right now. I know it's only

2010
01:43:11,479 --> 01:43:13,360
Speaker 1: two weeks, but to put up the points they're putting

2011
01:43:13,439 --> 01:43:16,160
Speaker 1: up and to do it as effortlessly as they're doing

2012
01:43:16,240 --> 01:43:19,000
Speaker 1: it right now, I think there is a statement being made.

2013
01:43:19,160 --> 01:43:21,680
Speaker 1: I don't think you can deny the statement that New

2014
01:43:21,800 --> 01:43:24,280
Speaker 1: Orleans has made. I think they're real, But man, I

2015
01:43:25,160 --> 01:43:26,719
Speaker 1: a lot of that is because I think so highly

2016
01:43:26,760 --> 01:43:29,240
Speaker 1: of the Cowboys, and the Cowboys just got their assets kicked. Like,

2017
01:43:29,760 --> 01:43:32,000
Speaker 1: I think this weekend's matchup against Philly is one of

2018
01:43:32,000 --> 01:43:34,439
Speaker 1: the most interesting because Philly's gonna come in with a

2019
01:43:34,760 --> 01:43:37,760
Speaker 1: absolute you know, we will we will do everything we

2020
01:43:37,840 --> 01:43:40,479
Speaker 1: can to stop this run. And that's something that simply,

2021
01:43:40,520 --> 01:43:42,720
Speaker 1: as you well know, the Cowboys have never been capable of.

2022
01:43:42,840 --> 01:43:45,439
Speaker 1: They can't stop runs out of that scheme. So let's

2023
01:43:45,439 --> 01:43:47,360
Speaker 1: see if Philly has a better answer for him. And

2024
01:43:47,400 --> 01:43:49,160
Speaker 1: if they don't, then I think we do need to

2025
01:43:49,200 --> 01:43:51,439
Speaker 1: step back and say, yep, this is a much better

2026
01:43:51,560 --> 01:43:52,760
Speaker 1: New Orleans team than we thought.

2027
01:43:54,000 --> 01:43:56,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Eagles run defense is woeful.

2028
01:43:57,479 --> 01:44:03,760
Speaker 1: Yes, so so the fact that's gonna be the case

2029
01:44:03,800 --> 01:44:05,920
Speaker 1: throughout the course of the season, because I just I

2030
01:44:06,000 --> 01:44:08,280
Speaker 1: feel like they're there. Their tackles are too good to

2031
01:44:08,320 --> 01:44:10,040
Speaker 1: be terrible against the run all year, are they not?

2032
01:44:11,560 --> 01:44:15,000
Speaker 2: I don't know. Their tackles are young and inexperience, right,

2033
01:44:15,120 --> 01:44:18,519
Speaker 2: so their tackles could be a bust. I mean, I

2034
01:44:19,360 --> 01:44:22,600
Speaker 2: love Jalen Carter. I think Jaalen Carr is legit. He

2035
01:44:24,040 --> 01:44:28,000
Speaker 2: was late and did not play the first five snaps

2036
01:44:28,040 --> 01:44:31,599
Speaker 2: of the game, got in, saw out a double team.

2037
01:44:32,000 --> 01:44:35,240
Speaker 2: He's going to be good, But the rest of that front,

2038
01:44:35,920 --> 01:44:39,840
Speaker 2: I don't know what you got. Jordan Davis can't stay

2039
01:44:39,880 --> 01:44:46,599
Speaker 2: on the fields. He's a big, huge disappointment. Trade up

2040
01:44:46,800 --> 01:44:50,280
Speaker 2: to get the big big right to get the big

2041
01:44:50,479 --> 01:44:55,360
Speaker 2: boy in the middle clogging him up, and he's just

2042
01:44:55,560 --> 01:44:58,800
Speaker 2: been bad. He has not been able to stay on

2043
01:44:58,920 --> 01:45:04,000
Speaker 2: the field, not enough snaps. So Jordan Davis big question mark.

2044
01:45:04,120 --> 01:45:11,680
Speaker 2: And then their edges are horrible, like Bryce Hoff. They

2045
01:45:11,840 --> 01:45:17,360
Speaker 2: pay spent fifty million dollars on Bryce Huff and he's

2046
01:45:17,439 --> 01:45:21,920
Speaker 2: been a ghost. He can't sniff, they can't sniff the quarterback,

2047
01:45:22,920 --> 01:45:26,720
Speaker 2: and they play a scheme Fangio scheme where they don't

2048
01:45:26,800 --> 01:45:30,439
Speaker 2: like to blitz a lot. And that was that was

2049
01:45:30,600 --> 01:45:35,920
Speaker 2: just horrible defense. Like, as someone who loves defense, watching

2050
01:45:36,000 --> 01:45:40,479
Speaker 2: the end of that game and watching Cousins on one

2051
01:45:40,720 --> 01:45:44,400
Speaker 2: leg still recover from the achilles go down the field

2052
01:45:44,800 --> 01:45:50,000
Speaker 2: untouched with no timeouts was absolutely an embarrassment.

2053
01:45:51,360 --> 01:45:54,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with that that portion of it. Like

2054
01:45:54,120 --> 01:45:56,439
Speaker 1: as much as we've already talked about sort of some

2055
01:45:56,600 --> 01:46:01,280
Speaker 1: of the faults of the and whether or not they

2056
01:46:01,280 --> 01:46:03,400
Speaker 1: should have thrown the ball to Saquon. There is also

2057
01:46:03,439 --> 01:46:05,559
Speaker 1: another spot of like you let one leg at Kirk

2058
01:46:05,560 --> 01:46:09,080
Speaker 1: Cousins do that to you. And it is alarming to

2059
01:46:09,160 --> 01:46:12,760
Speaker 1: me how the entire conversation about the Minnesota Vikings has

2060
01:46:12,880 --> 01:46:17,559
Speaker 1: changed based on one drive, because like, the Vikings offense

2061
01:46:18,080 --> 01:46:20,840
Speaker 1: didn't necessarily look great the rest of the time, but

2062
01:46:21,000 --> 01:46:22,760
Speaker 1: they looked great for that one drive. And now all

2063
01:46:22,800 --> 01:46:24,439
Speaker 1: of a sudden, it's like, wow, the Vikings have really

2064
01:46:24,479 --> 01:46:26,639
Speaker 1: figured this thing out, and look at all the changes

2065
01:46:26,680 --> 01:46:28,400
Speaker 1: they made and blah blah blah, and it's like, man,

2066
01:46:28,600 --> 01:46:31,800
Speaker 1: that's just a dangerous, dangerous sort of way to go,

2067
01:46:31,960 --> 01:46:34,280
Speaker 1: because I don't know if I believe that that's sustainable

2068
01:46:34,280 --> 01:46:37,320
Speaker 1: for Minnesota. And I think we're really overreacting to what

2069
01:46:37,600 --> 01:46:40,760
Speaker 1: was one good drive. It's a little concerning in my mind.

2070
01:46:41,760 --> 01:46:47,000
Speaker 2: Maybe it funny because how we it is unbelievable how

2071
01:46:47,040 --> 01:46:52,920
Speaker 2: we overreact, Like we're NFL fans, you know, week to

2072
01:46:53,080 --> 01:46:58,800
Speaker 2: week if skies fall in and rash statements, but you know,

2073
01:46:59,320 --> 01:47:03,200
Speaker 2: it is what it is. There's always a modicum of

2074
01:47:03,360 --> 01:47:04,120
Speaker 2: truth behind it.

2075
01:47:04,680 --> 01:47:06,960
Speaker 1: But also, like I always say, and I'll say again

2076
01:47:07,040 --> 01:47:09,880
Speaker 1: now for the new audience, like The toughest part of

2077
01:47:09,960 --> 01:47:13,640
Speaker 1: what we do is that we are asked specifically to

2078
01:47:13,720 --> 01:47:16,559
Speaker 1: write a book report after every chapter of a book,

2079
01:47:17,160 --> 01:47:19,519
Speaker 1: and like, if we're being real, sometimes you read the

2080
01:47:19,520 --> 01:47:21,599
Speaker 1: first chapter of a book, you're like, man, this thing's great.

2081
01:47:21,880 --> 01:47:23,360
Speaker 1: Then you get to the end of it and you're like, man,

2082
01:47:23,439 --> 01:47:26,160
Speaker 1: this thing sucks. Imagine if every thirty minutes they stopped

2083
01:47:26,160 --> 01:47:28,720
Speaker 1: a movie and said, Okay, give us a review. How

2084
01:47:28,800 --> 01:47:30,280
Speaker 1: good is this movie going to be? Well, I don't know.

2085
01:47:30,320 --> 01:47:32,440
Speaker 1: I got to see it till the end. But unfortunately,

2086
01:47:32,520 --> 01:47:34,559
Speaker 1: for what we do, it's not like we could turn

2087
01:47:34,560 --> 01:47:36,080
Speaker 1: around and say, guys, we're not going to make any

2088
01:47:36,120 --> 01:47:39,240
Speaker 1: sweeping generalizations about the Eagles until the season ends. Like

2089
01:47:39,520 --> 01:47:41,559
Speaker 1: that is not a luxury any of us have provided.

2090
01:47:41,840 --> 01:47:43,720
Speaker 1: So the best you can do is just sort of

2091
01:47:44,080 --> 01:47:46,360
Speaker 1: give your best opinion based on what you see. And

2092
01:47:46,720 --> 01:47:48,640
Speaker 1: that's where I think, like the ad we run on

2093
01:47:48,720 --> 01:47:50,800
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio all the time about even when Colin

2094
01:47:50,880 --> 01:47:53,680
Speaker 1: Coward's wrong, he's right, he is kind of right, Like

2095
01:47:53,720 --> 01:47:57,080
Speaker 1: the evidence changes every week, So we overreact because we

2096
01:47:57,200 --> 01:47:59,240
Speaker 1: have to over I just don't know, I don't know

2097
01:47:59,280 --> 01:47:59,880
Speaker 1: any other way.

2098
01:48:00,200 --> 01:48:02,960
Speaker 2: You know, right now, it's well, listen it's the truth.

2099
01:48:03,040 --> 01:48:05,280
Speaker 2: Like we were talking about that. I was talking about

2100
01:48:05,280 --> 01:48:07,839
Speaker 2: it this week with you know, when you see defensive

2101
01:48:07,880 --> 01:48:12,479
Speaker 2: play that poorly, you know, I mean, how does that

2102
01:48:12,680 --> 01:48:18,080
Speaker 2: get fixed overnight? Like unless the young players suddenly blossom

2103
01:48:18,160 --> 01:48:20,639
Speaker 2: before your eyes and a couple of them don't even

2104
01:48:20,640 --> 01:48:23,439
Speaker 2: appear to have any ability to play at this level,

2105
01:48:24,120 --> 01:48:27,800
Speaker 2: then I don't know how that changes. So that's something

2106
01:48:27,840 --> 01:48:30,559
Speaker 2: that when you strap light for the rest of the season,

2107
01:48:31,840 --> 01:48:35,599
Speaker 2: that your defense is that porous, then you got issues.

2108
01:48:36,040 --> 01:48:40,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, And the crazy thing about defense particularly is that

2109
01:48:40,360 --> 01:48:43,120
Speaker 1: I think we need to remind everybody you only have

2110
01:48:43,200 --> 01:48:45,800
Speaker 1: fourteen padded practices per year, and you can't have two

2111
01:48:45,840 --> 01:48:48,080
Speaker 1: in a week during the course of the regular season.

2112
01:48:48,560 --> 01:48:51,559
Speaker 1: So if your team is bad on defense, if they're

2113
01:48:51,600 --> 01:48:53,760
Speaker 1: bad at taking angles, they're bad at tackling the bad

2114
01:48:53,800 --> 01:48:55,519
Speaker 1: at all of those things, they can work on some

2115
01:48:55,680 --> 01:48:58,519
Speaker 1: of that, but they can't really fix that. Like there

2116
01:48:58,600 --> 01:49:02,600
Speaker 1: is no if your team is just bad defensively, I

2117
01:49:02,720 --> 01:49:05,240
Speaker 1: don't know what fixes that. Sometimes they get a little

2118
01:49:05,280 --> 01:49:07,320
Speaker 1: bit better, but usually it's a scheme change that has

2119
01:49:07,360 --> 01:49:09,840
Speaker 1: to happen. Something has to happen in what they're being

2120
01:49:10,000 --> 01:49:12,680
Speaker 1: asked to do, rather than you know, you can't do

2121
01:49:12,800 --> 01:49:15,120
Speaker 1: much about I don't think player development on the defensive

2122
01:49:15,160 --> 01:49:17,519
Speaker 1: side of the ball that takes you from a terrible

2123
01:49:17,600 --> 01:49:19,679
Speaker 1: defense to a great defense. During the course of a season,

2124
01:49:19,920 --> 01:49:21,920
Speaker 1: you might go from being okay to being a little

2125
01:49:21,960 --> 01:49:24,320
Speaker 1: better than okay. But if your hope is that, well,

2126
01:49:24,360 --> 01:49:26,800
Speaker 1: everything's going to click defensively, I do believe everything can

2127
01:49:26,880 --> 01:49:28,920
Speaker 1: click offensively because timing is such a part of it.

2128
01:49:29,280 --> 01:49:31,000
Speaker 1: But if your team's bad on the defensive side of

2129
01:49:31,040 --> 01:49:32,599
Speaker 1: the ball, they're just going to be bad this year.

2130
01:49:34,200 --> 01:49:38,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I think your spot or your spot on

2131
01:49:38,800 --> 01:49:41,080
Speaker 2: all that, which is a sad message to get fans,

2132
01:49:41,120 --> 01:49:44,320
Speaker 2: but I'm just being honest, you know, yeah, and I

2133
01:49:44,560 --> 01:49:50,680
Speaker 2: know I feel you. All right. So, how real are

2134
01:49:50,760 --> 01:49:55,720
Speaker 2: the Cowboys problems defensively? Because you know they have ability,

2135
01:49:56,080 --> 01:49:58,160
Speaker 2: they just can't stop any kind of run.

2136
01:50:00,560 --> 01:50:03,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's huge. The fact that they get run on

2137
01:50:04,000 --> 01:50:07,880
Speaker 1: by Kyle Shanahan offensive schemes is huge, like, because that's

2138
01:50:07,920 --> 01:50:09,960
Speaker 1: what they're gonna have to face. And look, you know,

2139
01:50:10,000 --> 01:50:12,160
Speaker 1: I've been the biggest Cowboys guy. I'm the guy that's

2140
01:50:12,160 --> 01:50:14,559
Speaker 1: like they're gonna be just fine. But then you see

2141
01:50:14,560 --> 01:50:16,160
Speaker 1: that and you're like, oh god, this is why they

2142
01:50:16,200 --> 01:50:18,720
Speaker 1: always lose in the playoffs because they just can't do

2143
01:50:18,880 --> 01:50:20,360
Speaker 1: some of the basic things that you have to be

2144
01:50:20,400 --> 01:50:22,800
Speaker 1: able to do against really good teams. And I don't

2145
01:50:22,840 --> 01:50:25,280
Speaker 1: know how you fix that either. If you haven't fixed

2146
01:50:25,280 --> 01:50:28,160
Speaker 1: it like a new defense was supposed to. They were

2147
01:50:28,160 --> 01:50:30,439
Speaker 1: supposed to fix that during the offseason. So to get

2148
01:50:30,520 --> 01:50:33,599
Speaker 1: kicked in the teeth like that, Oh, that's I mean,

2149
01:50:33,680 --> 01:50:37,320
Speaker 1: that's a staggering. That is truly an important moment for

2150
01:50:37,600 --> 01:50:40,600
Speaker 1: whatever they're trying to accomplish. That You cannot tell me

2151
01:50:40,680 --> 01:50:45,240
Speaker 1: that that doesn't give cause for concern to literally everybody involved.

2152
01:50:46,240 --> 01:50:52,680
Speaker 2: Ah, dude, I feel you. I feel you. But all right,

2153
01:50:52,720 --> 01:50:57,920
Speaker 2: let's can you around the NFC and what do you

2154
01:50:58,040 --> 01:51:02,439
Speaker 2: make of Caleb williams struggles. One thing about young quarterbacks

2155
01:51:02,520 --> 01:51:06,560
Speaker 2: coming in the league right now, the sea change of

2156
01:51:07,640 --> 01:51:12,559
Speaker 2: how defense is way ahead of the offense right now.

2157
01:51:14,120 --> 01:51:20,960
Speaker 2: It's it's pretty pretty dramatic, and a lot of the

2158
01:51:21,120 --> 01:51:25,000
Speaker 2: young quarterbacks are realizing they can't play joystick football at

2159
01:51:25,040 --> 01:51:25,519
Speaker 2: this level.

2160
01:51:26,920 --> 01:51:29,559
Speaker 1: The other part of it is, because you're right, look

2161
01:51:29,600 --> 01:51:32,519
Speaker 1: at it, what Caleb Williams doesn't do well all the

2162
01:51:32,600 --> 01:51:35,280
Speaker 1: way to college. The people that would look back at

2163
01:51:35,400 --> 01:51:37,640
Speaker 1: USC will tell you that he worked really hard to

2164
01:51:37,720 --> 01:51:40,920
Speaker 1: make huge plays, but sometimes just didn't take what was

2165
01:51:41,000 --> 01:51:43,320
Speaker 1: easy in their for him. And what's happening right now

2166
01:51:43,640 --> 01:51:46,400
Speaker 1: is that it feels like again he's running around trying

2167
01:51:46,439 --> 01:51:48,439
Speaker 1: to make huge plays. You got to coach that out

2168
01:51:48,479 --> 01:51:50,439
Speaker 1: of him. You got to figure out a way quickly

2169
01:51:50,560 --> 01:51:52,560
Speaker 1: to coach that out of him. I would argue, you

2170
01:51:52,640 --> 01:51:55,160
Speaker 1: know that Will Levis's stupidity on the football field is

2171
01:51:55,200 --> 01:51:57,080
Speaker 1: the reason the Titans aren't two and oh instead of

2172
01:51:57,160 --> 01:51:59,160
Speaker 1: oho and two. And I would also argue that you

2173
01:51:59,200 --> 01:52:01,000
Speaker 1: can go back and watch college film and see that.

2174
01:52:01,080 --> 01:52:04,280
Speaker 1: I would argue that Anthony Richardson's great throws and terrible

2175
01:52:04,360 --> 01:52:06,519
Speaker 1: throws or exactly who he was at Florida, and you

2176
01:52:06,600 --> 01:52:08,760
Speaker 1: got to coach that out of it with Caleb. You

2177
01:52:08,880 --> 01:52:11,000
Speaker 1: got to start right now. I think nobody's doing a

2178
01:52:11,040 --> 01:52:14,160
Speaker 1: better job with the young quarterback than Washington, other than

2179
01:52:14,160 --> 01:52:16,679
Speaker 1: the CJ. Stroud. Then Washington with Jade and Daniels, because

2180
01:52:16,720 --> 01:52:19,400
Speaker 1: they are being super cautious and how they bring him

2181
01:52:19,400 --> 01:52:21,599
Speaker 1: into this and they're just making sure, hey, we're gonna

2182
01:52:21,640 --> 01:52:23,760
Speaker 1: give him just a little taste of this so that

2183
01:52:23,840 --> 01:52:25,840
Speaker 1: he can be comfortable. And then we're gonna get it

2184
01:52:25,920 --> 01:52:28,280
Speaker 1: working from there. They're not doing that with Caleb, And

2185
01:52:28,680 --> 01:52:30,519
Speaker 1: right now it feels like the coaches are failing, in

2186
01:52:30,600 --> 01:52:31,519
Speaker 1: which I predicted.

2187
01:52:32,360 --> 01:52:36,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, all right, tight, because we got lots to discuss,

2188
01:52:37,680 --> 01:52:44,120
Speaker 2: including man, are the Rams dead? We're the Fellas fits

2189
01:52:44,200 --> 01:52:50,240
Speaker 2: he Cauz right here, Fox Sports Radio, Fellas hanging out

2190
01:52:51,200 --> 01:52:57,960
Speaker 2: on this Fox Football Saturday. Hey, let me ask you, Rams.

2191
01:52:58,080 --> 01:53:00,760
Speaker 2: Let's go. Let's go team by team a little bit.

2192
01:53:01,439 --> 01:53:05,880
Speaker 2: Rams in some trouble man no offensive line obviously, Kop

2193
01:53:06,120 --> 01:53:08,799
Speaker 2: and Pooka. I mean that's a killer.

2194
01:53:10,360 --> 01:53:13,120
Speaker 1: Yeah. And by the way, you know, we say every

2195
01:53:13,200 --> 01:53:14,640
Speaker 1: year at the end of the year, the team that

2196
01:53:14,760 --> 01:53:17,280
Speaker 1: was healthiest was the team that probably won a bunch

2197
01:53:17,320 --> 01:53:19,639
Speaker 1: of games. We are looking at some of the biggest

2198
01:53:19,640 --> 01:53:22,720
Speaker 1: teams in the league just absolutely decimated by injuries. I

2199
01:53:23,520 --> 01:53:26,320
Speaker 1: don't know what to expect with the Rams at this point.

2200
01:53:26,439 --> 01:53:28,920
Speaker 1: I think, you know, if they can even remain competitive,

2201
01:53:28,960 --> 01:53:31,720
Speaker 1: that's going to be absolutely shocking to me. So I

2202
01:53:31,800 --> 01:53:34,280
Speaker 1: think the Rams, through no fault of their own. I

2203
01:53:35,000 --> 01:53:36,920
Speaker 1: just don't think you can deal with what they're dealing

2204
01:53:36,960 --> 01:53:40,680
Speaker 1: with and still survive it. So they're up against it.

2205
01:53:41,000 --> 01:53:44,519
Speaker 1: This feels like a season gone wrong, a season wasted

2206
01:53:44,560 --> 01:53:46,200
Speaker 1: for them at this point lest they can suddenly get

2207
01:53:46,280 --> 01:53:47,519
Speaker 1: healthy in a very real way.

2208
01:53:48,520 --> 01:53:50,720
Speaker 2: Dude, I'm with you, and I don't know how you

2209
01:53:50,840 --> 01:53:53,880
Speaker 2: can you protect If you can't protect Stafford right like,

2210
01:53:54,240 --> 01:53:56,680
Speaker 2: we know that that's a disaster and then he's got

2211
01:53:56,760 --> 01:53:59,439
Speaker 2: nobody to throw to. I mean, you're when you're all

2212
01:53:59,520 --> 01:54:03,200
Speaker 2: lines like that, that just kills you nine by the way,

2213
01:54:04,280 --> 01:54:05,120
Speaker 2: but not enough.

2214
01:54:06,400 --> 01:54:09,679
Speaker 1: You mentioned the old line. Let's be a broken record

2215
01:54:09,720 --> 01:54:12,360
Speaker 1: here too. Said it last year there were not thirty

2216
01:54:12,439 --> 01:54:15,600
Speaker 1: two caliber starting caliber left tackles and right tackles in

2217
01:54:15,680 --> 01:54:18,519
Speaker 1: the NFL. What are we seeing across the board? Like

2218
01:54:18,800 --> 01:54:22,200
Speaker 1: we are watching quarterbacks just get hammered because offensive line

2219
01:54:22,240 --> 01:54:25,320
Speaker 1: play is bad, Like y'all like as much as we

2220
01:54:25,439 --> 01:54:29,080
Speaker 1: want to sit here and obsess over skill, possession, position,

2221
01:54:29,320 --> 01:54:31,960
Speaker 1: and quarterbacks because that gets fantasy football points for all

2222
01:54:32,000 --> 01:54:35,960
Speaker 1: of us. This is over simplification. But again, fat guys

2223
01:54:36,040 --> 01:54:38,560
Speaker 1: win football games. If your fat guys are not as

2224
01:54:38,600 --> 01:54:40,280
Speaker 1: good as the other team's fat guys, you are not

2225
01:54:40,400 --> 01:54:42,600
Speaker 1: going to win. And the hardest part is that it's

2226
01:54:42,640 --> 01:54:45,280
Speaker 1: a tough position to evaluate, it's a tough position to

2227
01:54:45,360 --> 01:54:47,920
Speaker 1: talk about. It's a tough position to watch on Sundays

2228
01:54:47,960 --> 01:54:50,120
Speaker 1: and to know where the problem is. But we sit

2229
01:54:50,200 --> 01:54:52,040
Speaker 1: here and we scream at running backs for not getting

2230
01:54:52,120 --> 01:54:54,240
Speaker 1: enough production, and we scream at quarterbacks for not getting

2231
01:54:54,320 --> 01:54:56,280
Speaker 1: rid of the ball, when we should be screaming at

2232
01:54:56,280 --> 01:54:58,960
Speaker 1: the fact that offensive linemen coming out of college for

2233
01:54:59,120 --> 01:55:01,480
Speaker 1: the most part, are not prepared to play. They're not

2234
01:55:01,600 --> 01:55:04,160
Speaker 1: getting groom to play, and they're coming into the league

2235
01:55:04,200 --> 01:55:06,800
Speaker 1: and they're not playing well. And so you got playoff

2236
01:55:06,840 --> 01:55:09,600
Speaker 1: caliber football teams left and right that are just getting

2237
01:55:09,640 --> 01:55:12,640
Speaker 1: their asses kicked because their offensive line is not good.

2238
01:55:13,280 --> 01:55:17,760
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I gotta give a Yoda my main tuco

2239
01:55:18,480 --> 01:55:23,000
Speaker 2: who is grooving it to Steely Dan in bed. We

2240
01:55:23,200 --> 01:55:31,800
Speaker 2: came back to steely Dad. That is amazing. Uh how

2241
01:55:31,840 --> 01:55:36,760
Speaker 2: about the Uh the Chiefs lose, that's a big loss, man,

2242
01:55:37,600 --> 01:55:42,160
Speaker 2: You losing the checko, that's a that's another big loss.

2243
01:55:43,040 --> 01:55:46,360
Speaker 1: Early And it's one of those moments that we just

2244
01:55:46,480 --> 01:55:50,640
Speaker 1: keep We just presume that, you know, Patrick Mahomes pull

2245
01:55:50,680 --> 01:55:52,320
Speaker 1: Mahomes his way through it, and I'm not gonna presume

2246
01:55:52,360 --> 01:55:55,120
Speaker 1: he won't because that's all he ever does. But man,

2247
01:55:55,600 --> 01:55:58,120
Speaker 1: that's another example of just a crack in the armor, right,

2248
01:55:58,200 --> 01:56:01,560
Speaker 1: now looking across the board, like the teams that we

2249
01:56:01,680 --> 01:56:04,800
Speaker 1: thought were gonna be great this year, cracks in the

2250
01:56:04,880 --> 01:56:06,600
Speaker 1: armor all the way across the board for most of them,

2251
01:56:06,800 --> 01:56:10,720
Speaker 1: like Baltimore does not look like they can get out

2252
01:56:10,720 --> 01:56:13,240
Speaker 1: of their own way. The Chiefs have an injury issue

2253
01:56:13,280 --> 01:56:16,200
Speaker 1: that I think is substantial. The forty nine ers are

2254
01:56:16,520 --> 01:56:20,280
Speaker 1: tesimated right now with injuries. The Cowboys, they come off

2255
01:56:20,320 --> 01:56:21,880
Speaker 1: a game where they couldn't stop the run at all,

2256
01:56:22,000 --> 01:56:24,200
Speaker 1: Like a bunch of these teams that we were pretty

2257
01:56:24,240 --> 01:56:26,360
Speaker 1: sure we're gonna be very good. Like if I'm Detroit,

2258
01:56:26,400 --> 01:56:28,040
Speaker 1: I'm just sort of laughing. If I'm the Bills, I'm

2259
01:56:28,080 --> 01:56:30,160
Speaker 1: just sort of laughing. I'm like, y'all keep worrying about

2260
01:56:30,200 --> 01:56:32,400
Speaker 1: all these other bigger brands. Well, we just go out here,

2261
01:56:32,840 --> 01:56:34,600
Speaker 1: stay healthy, and we win some football games.

2262
01:56:35,560 --> 01:56:39,240
Speaker 2: Well, any other aspect is too. Is the style you

2263
01:56:39,560 --> 01:56:43,280
Speaker 2: mentioned Buffalo. Look at the style in which now teams

2264
01:56:43,280 --> 01:56:50,240
Speaker 2: are playing. It's a run heavy, big package, you know,

2265
01:56:50,920 --> 01:56:56,760
Speaker 2: full backs, tight, double tights, twelve personnel, thirteen personnel, and

2266
01:56:57,280 --> 01:56:59,040
Speaker 2: it's teams are running the football.

2267
01:57:00,320 --> 01:57:01,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean one hundred percent.

2268
01:57:01,880 --> 01:57:02,600
Speaker 2: That's the Bills.

2269
01:57:03,760 --> 01:57:07,760
Speaker 1: And by the way, Josh Allen continues to be herculean

2270
01:57:07,840 --> 01:57:10,360
Speaker 1: no matter what's around him, because they're they're just they

2271
01:57:10,440 --> 01:57:12,640
Speaker 1: found a way to build around the strengths of their identity,

2272
01:57:12,720 --> 01:57:15,720
Speaker 1: which is Josh Allen and that offense. So you're right,

2273
01:57:15,840 --> 01:57:18,800
Speaker 1: and it's fun to see this sort of the teams

2274
01:57:18,840 --> 01:57:20,720
Speaker 1: that can move the line of scrimmage or at least

2275
01:57:20,800 --> 01:57:23,320
Speaker 1: hold the line of scrimmage, they can get any sort

2276
01:57:23,320 --> 01:57:25,920
Speaker 1: of run game going or just flat out better this year,

2277
01:57:25,960 --> 01:57:29,160
Speaker 1: And it's it's fun for me to watch it really is.

2278
01:57:29,440 --> 01:57:33,760
Speaker 2: I it's different, you know, it's you know that it's

2279
01:57:33,840 --> 01:57:38,240
Speaker 2: funny the uh that air raid head down the field

2280
01:57:39,320 --> 01:57:41,880
Speaker 2: with all the all wax, all the of the horizontal

2281
01:57:41,960 --> 01:57:46,560
Speaker 2: stuff that's all getting defenses are are caught up to that.

2282
01:57:47,080 --> 01:57:49,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they'll continue. This is a just counter adjust, right,

2283
01:57:49,760 --> 01:57:51,200
Speaker 1: So now you're gonna see the run win for a

2284
01:57:51,240 --> 01:57:53,440
Speaker 1: little bit and then everybody will figure out how to

2285
01:57:53,480 --> 01:57:56,240
Speaker 1: pass it. Like it's it's gonna be an interesting season

2286
01:57:56,320 --> 01:57:58,440
Speaker 1: to see what actually sustains. And it's funny to be

2287
01:57:58,520 --> 01:58:00,360
Speaker 1: through all of that that my beloved Raiders got an

2288
01:58:00,440 --> 01:58:03,800
Speaker 1: upset by abandoning the run completely because their offensive line

2289
01:58:03,880 --> 01:58:04,720
Speaker 1: is too bad to run.

2290
01:58:05,720 --> 01:58:09,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, how nuts is that? Oh man. All right, big

2291

2310
01:59:30,960 --> 01:59:34,800
Speaker 2: get off the air. Let's go game by game Fitsie,

2311
01:59:35,400 --> 01:59:38,560
Speaker 2: all right, and let's look at it and get your thoughts.

2312
01:59:39,200 --> 01:59:44,240
Speaker 2: So we'll start off Chargers and Stealers Battle two with

2313
01:59:44,360 --> 01:59:50,800
Speaker 2: those both teams playing old school hard scrabble football.

2314
01:59:52,000 --> 01:59:54,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, and by the way, you just heard Justin Herbert

2315
01:59:54,240 --> 01:59:57,480
Speaker 1: hi ankle sprain obviously gonna be significant in this one.

2316
01:59:58,200 --> 02:00:00,280
Speaker 1: Let's not sleep on the Steelers defense and how good

2317
02:00:00,280 --> 02:00:03,240
Speaker 1: they are. Justin Fields is playing well enough to win

2318
02:00:03,280 --> 02:00:06,360
Speaker 1: football games. He's playing fine. Hammered. The over on Justin

2319
02:00:06,360 --> 02:00:08,640
Speaker 1: Field's rushing yard in Vegas gets that wrong all the time.

2320
02:00:08,720 --> 02:00:14,280
Speaker 1: But you know, with Justin Herbert being less than himself,

2321
02:00:14,360 --> 02:00:16,560
Speaker 1: less than one hundred percent of himself, you might think

2322
02:00:16,600 --> 02:00:18,840
Speaker 1: that that hinders the Chargers. The only thing I'd say

2323
02:00:18,880 --> 02:00:20,880
Speaker 1: is that this is a hardball Chargers team. They're going

2324
02:00:20,960 --> 02:00:22,880
Speaker 1: to try and run the football three thousand times. So

2325
02:00:23,400 --> 02:00:25,960
Speaker 1: you know, this just feels like an ugly, ugly football

2326
02:00:25,960 --> 02:00:27,800
Speaker 1: game where two defenses are going to come to play

2327
02:00:28,160 --> 02:00:30,640
Speaker 1: and we'll see who makes the least mistakes. If Herbert

2328
02:00:30,760 --> 02:00:32,400
Speaker 1: is less than one hundred percent, which he will be

2329
02:00:32,440 --> 02:00:35,320
Speaker 1: if he's if Herbert's not himself, then the Steelers can

2330
02:00:35,360 --> 02:00:36,160
Speaker 1: win this football game.

2331
02:00:36,200 --> 02:00:36,320
Speaker 3: Though.

2332
02:00:37,120 --> 02:00:40,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you, man, I really am. I do

2333
02:00:41,080 --> 02:00:46,320
Speaker 2: think I love that still a defense man, that's still

2334
02:00:46,360 --> 02:00:50,280
Speaker 2: a defense And look, I mean Field struggles throwing the ball,

2335
02:00:50,920 --> 02:00:53,320
Speaker 2: but if you could just get it to be credible

2336
02:00:53,880 --> 02:00:57,320
Speaker 2: because of his running ability, they're dangerous. Like they're a

2337
02:00:57,400 --> 02:01:00,720
Speaker 2: dull shorten the game on youah me luck what they do,

2338
02:01:01,040 --> 02:01:03,000
Speaker 2: that's just that's Steeler football.

2339
02:01:04,240 --> 02:01:07,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you're right. I'm not much of a conspiracy theorist,

2340
02:01:07,840 --> 02:01:10,280
Speaker 1: but I think now that Justin Fields is in, it's

2341
02:01:10,320 --> 02:01:12,080
Speaker 1: gonna be hard to take Justin Fields out if he

2342
02:01:12,120 --> 02:01:15,320
Speaker 1: continues to do just enough to win. So and he's

2343
02:01:15,360 --> 02:01:18,840
Speaker 1: done that, I think we over complicate some of this

2344
02:01:18,920 --> 02:01:21,160
Speaker 1: based on the expectations that we have for Justin Fields.

2345
02:01:21,200 --> 02:01:24,000
Speaker 1: But the fact is right now Arthur Smith and that offense,

2346
02:01:24,040 --> 02:01:26,640
Speaker 1: the offensive coordinated for the Steelers. They need somebody that's

2347
02:01:26,680 --> 02:01:28,360
Speaker 1: a little mobile. They can get out, they can make

2348
02:01:28,400 --> 02:01:30,960
Speaker 1: things work. He can do that. I think the death

2349
02:01:31,000 --> 02:01:33,440
Speaker 1: of the Steelers underreported. They feel like the annual Steelers

2350
02:01:33,480 --> 02:01:34,320
Speaker 1: and nine wind h.

2351
02:01:34,760 --> 02:01:39,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, spot on, all right, Minnesota two and oh with

2352
02:01:39,760 --> 02:01:47,040
Speaker 2: Sam Donald, Sam I am Donald with weapons and an

2353
02:01:47,080 --> 02:01:52,240
Speaker 2: offensive line looking good. They hosted Texas. I by the way,

2354
02:01:52,280 --> 02:01:54,560
Speaker 2: I love the Houston in this game. I just think

2355
02:01:55,280 --> 02:01:59,760
Speaker 2: Houston is so good. Houston is so good, and we

2356
02:02:00,040 --> 02:02:01,520
Speaker 2: I don't think we've seen how good they are.

2357
02:02:02,440 --> 02:02:06,560
Speaker 1: I honestly think that what we're seeing at this point

2358
02:02:06,720 --> 02:02:10,800
Speaker 1: from CJ Stroud is almost Dann Marino, like when you

2359
02:02:10,960 --> 02:02:12,520
Speaker 1: just talk about a kid that just can come in

2360
02:02:12,720 --> 02:02:16,600
Speaker 1: and do everything from the outset, from the very beginning

2361
02:02:16,640 --> 02:02:20,800
Speaker 1: of his career. Like, I'm the CJ looks every bit

2362
02:02:20,880 --> 02:02:23,480
Speaker 1: as clean as he did last year, right, and this

2363
02:02:23,680 --> 02:02:27,720
Speaker 1: Texans team is really good. I think he's a little surprising.

2364
02:02:27,800 --> 02:02:29,640
Speaker 1: But did you find yourself with Sam Darnald? Let me

2365
02:02:29,640 --> 02:02:33,240
Speaker 1: ask you this with Sam, because I've been sassy with

2366
02:02:33,360 --> 02:02:35,400
Speaker 1: a lot of people saying that Sam Donald can still play,

2367
02:02:35,400 --> 02:02:37,280
Speaker 1: and I'm like, come on, relax, now, all of a sudden,

2368
02:02:37,280 --> 02:02:39,960
Speaker 1: he can play. I actually found myself last week saying, man,

2369
02:02:40,640 --> 02:02:43,040
Speaker 1: why JJ McCarthy, if you can get this much out

2370
02:02:43,040 --> 02:02:45,600
Speaker 1: of Sam Donald, why did you spend the equity on JJ.

2371
02:02:45,720 --> 02:02:48,640
Speaker 1: I understand it's because maybe you don't think this is sustainable,

2372
02:02:48,680 --> 02:02:52,240
Speaker 1: but dang, man, I don't know like this versus Sam Donald,

2373
02:02:52,560 --> 02:02:55,160
Speaker 1: Like kudos to Kevin O'Connell forgetting it worked out, but man,

2374
02:02:55,720 --> 02:02:57,960
Speaker 1: I watched it and thought, this is way better than

2375
02:02:58,000 --> 02:02:58,800
Speaker 1: I thought it could look.

2376
02:03:00,080 --> 02:03:04,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm still dubious when it comes to Donald and

2377
02:03:05,920 --> 02:03:09,120
Speaker 2: you know, and I get why, Like I would have

2378
02:03:09,200 --> 02:03:12,760
Speaker 2: went McCarthy too, So I'm I'm dubious with it. I

2379
02:03:12,800 --> 02:03:15,040
Speaker 2: don't know, you have those great you have great weapons,

2380
02:03:15,120 --> 02:03:18,760
Speaker 2: So I guess, you know, let's see, let's see what happens.

2381
02:03:18,840 --> 02:03:22,760
Speaker 2: Maybe he can. Uh, Eagles you like? I like Houston

2382
02:03:22,840 --> 02:03:26,800
Speaker 2: the game? Are you liking the game? I like Eagles

2383
02:03:26,880 --> 02:03:31,680
Speaker 2: and Saints again, we talked about them. Saints two and zero. Uh,

2384
02:03:31,880 --> 02:03:36,760
Speaker 2: Eagles lose a tough one Saints. Uh with that offense ridiculous,

2385
02:03:37,280 --> 02:03:38,800
Speaker 2: they were a two and a half point favorite.

2386
02:03:39,400 --> 02:03:41,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I like Philly in this game. I think

2387
02:03:41,160 --> 02:03:43,320
Speaker 1: Philly's backs up against the wall. We'll see an energized

2388
02:03:43,360 --> 02:03:45,840
Speaker 1: different version of Philly in this I mean not energizing different,

2389
02:03:45,880 --> 02:03:46,520
Speaker 1: but you know what I mean.

2390
02:03:46,560 --> 02:03:49,840
Speaker 2: I think, No, it's weird, right, Like the Eagles cover

2391
02:03:49,920 --> 02:03:52,600
Speaker 2: off the short week Monday Night, Saints looks so great

2392
02:03:53,320 --> 02:03:57,720
Speaker 2: rallying Dallas. That that's the way this league is, right,

2393
02:03:57,960 --> 02:04:00,240
Speaker 2: Like the other team comes in you all then in

2394
02:04:00,280 --> 02:04:01,280
Speaker 2: a short week it will win.

2395
02:04:02,520 --> 02:04:04,760
Speaker 1: Yeah. And there's just an element to me too where

2396
02:04:05,360 --> 02:04:07,520
Speaker 1: I keep waiting for the shoot to drop on on

2397
02:04:07,640 --> 02:04:09,960
Speaker 1: this offense for New Orleans and maybe I'm maybe I'm

2398
02:04:10,040 --> 02:04:12,320
Speaker 1: just taking too long to jump on the bandwagon. But

2399
02:04:12,800 --> 02:04:16,080
Speaker 1: I also think that our Philly conversation, if the to me,

2400
02:04:16,680 --> 02:04:19,760
Speaker 1: the guy that I think could be the MVP this year,

2401
02:04:20,200 --> 02:04:23,840
Speaker 1: holds onto the football, We're having totally different conversation about

2402
02:04:23,840 --> 02:04:25,840
Speaker 1: Philly right now. We're just tare and I know that

2403
02:04:25,920 --> 02:04:27,560
Speaker 1: that's not what happens, so we're not having that, but

2404
02:04:27,720 --> 02:04:30,800
Speaker 1: still I'm trying to keep that context in my mind.

2405
02:04:31,560 --> 02:04:34,000
Speaker 2: No, I get you. I will say this, it's a

2406
02:04:34,240 --> 02:04:37,360
Speaker 2: night It's a matchup nightmare for.

2407
02:04:37,480 --> 02:04:39,920
Speaker 1: The Eagles, the bad matchup for him.

2408
02:04:40,600 --> 02:04:42,720
Speaker 2: So it'll be interesting to see if the ebb and

2409
02:04:42,760 --> 02:04:46,520
Speaker 2: flow of the league fits Denver and Tampa speaking is

2410
02:04:46,800 --> 02:04:52,600
Speaker 2: another team that's dangerous, Tampa two and out. I want

2411
02:04:52,640 --> 02:04:59,640
Speaker 2: to read you as Baker Mayfield Drew Brees first ninety

2412
02:04:59,760 --> 02:05:05,680
Speaker 2: five games of their respective careers, Breeze twenty two thousand

2413
02:05:05,880 --> 02:05:11,120
Speaker 2: passing yards, Baker twenty one to nine touchdowns, Baker one

2414
02:05:11,240 --> 02:05:18,000
Speaker 2: forty five, Breeze one forty two interceptions, Drew Breese eighty five,

2415
02:05:18,240 --> 02:05:23,879
Speaker 2: Baker seventy eight. Passer rating Baker eighty nine, four Breeze

2416
02:05:24,120 --> 02:05:28,720
Speaker 2: eighty eighty five, Record Breeze forty nine and forty six,

2417
02:05:29,440 --> 02:05:34,240
Speaker 2: Mayfield forty six and forty nine. How fascinating is that?

2418
02:05:35,520 --> 02:05:37,640
Speaker 1: That's insane when you read it out that way. I mean,

2419
02:05:37,720 --> 02:05:41,320
Speaker 1: that's that's crazy. And I mean Baker at this point

2420
02:05:41,640 --> 02:05:44,960
Speaker 1: is just it's it's the version of Baker everybody wanted

2421
02:05:45,000 --> 02:05:49,560
Speaker 1: from the outset, right, Like, it's it's different. It's it's

2422
02:05:50,120 --> 02:05:51,680
Speaker 1: more relaxed, it's more in control.

2423
02:05:52,480 --> 02:05:53,720
Speaker 2: It just looks I.

2424
02:05:53,800 --> 02:05:55,760
Speaker 1: Say this a lot with really good football, but when

2425
02:05:55,800 --> 02:05:58,120
Speaker 1: it looks effortless, that's when you know it's it's working.

2426
02:05:58,600 --> 02:06:00,600
Speaker 1: Like I'm not talking about the result, I'm talking about

2427
02:06:00,600 --> 02:06:04,080
Speaker 1: the way. The result looks right. And there's just for

2428
02:06:04,240 --> 02:06:07,800
Speaker 1: this offense, for this, for this Bucks team, it looks easy.

2429
02:06:08,680 --> 02:06:11,080
Speaker 1: I'm really impressed with where Baker is. And and not

2430
02:06:11,200 --> 02:06:12,840
Speaker 1: for nothing, I thought it was gonna be the NFC

2431
02:06:12,960 --> 02:06:15,520
Speaker 1: sucking and the NFC South. Instead looks like it's pretty good.

2432
02:06:15,640 --> 02:06:17,800
Speaker 1: So you got to give them a lot of credit, dude.

2433
02:06:17,880 --> 02:06:21,160
Speaker 2: Not for nothing, man, it looks real good. And uh,

2434
02:06:21,360 --> 02:06:25,640
Speaker 2: Evans and Godwin are ageless. They are vampires.

2435
02:06:27,200 --> 02:06:30,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know how you stop them. And the

2436
02:06:30,280 --> 02:06:33,280
Speaker 1: way this this offense looks, it's just they can beat

2437
02:06:33,280 --> 02:06:35,440
Speaker 1: you in so many different levels and that's so difficult

2438
02:06:35,480 --> 02:06:38,560
Speaker 1: to defend. Yeah, it's it's really impressive. And where Baker

2439
02:06:38,720 --> 02:06:41,000
Speaker 1: is is impressive. It's a reminder that every time we

2440
02:06:41,080 --> 02:06:42,520
Speaker 1: want to give up on a quarterback, we just need

2441
02:06:42,600 --> 02:06:44,520
Speaker 1: to look at Baker and say, hey, it can be done.

2442
02:06:44,960 --> 02:06:54,360
Speaker 2: Yeah. Uh, Packers Titans mayo man against Uh No. I

2443
02:06:54,400 --> 02:06:57,160
Speaker 2: don't think Love is going to play in this. Uh,

2444
02:06:57,800 --> 02:07:00,880
Speaker 2: there's a chance, but I think probably give him one

2445
02:07:00,960 --> 02:07:04,200
Speaker 2: more week. Tennessee is a three point favorite.

2446
02:07:04,840 --> 02:07:09,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I mean what the Colts didn't do against

2447
02:07:09,320 --> 02:07:12,120
Speaker 1: Green Bay last week was coaching malpractice, Like to let

2448
02:07:12,200 --> 02:07:13,800
Speaker 1: them run all over you like that and then to

2449
02:07:13,920 --> 02:07:16,680
Speaker 1: not run the ball. I made no sense. The entire

2450
02:07:16,800 --> 02:07:20,080
Speaker 1: Colts game plan was trash last week. The Packers will

2451
02:07:20,120 --> 02:07:22,280
Speaker 1: come into this game for the Molik Willis revenge game,

2452
02:07:22,680 --> 02:07:24,760
Speaker 1: but go back and rewatch it like they won that

2453
02:07:24,880 --> 02:07:27,760
Speaker 1: game knowing that they couldn't throw the football. The Titans

2454
02:07:27,840 --> 02:07:30,480
Speaker 1: defense has played really well. They'll play really well here. Again.

2455
02:07:30,840 --> 02:07:32,840
Speaker 1: I don't think you can you know that there's Russian

2456
02:07:32,880 --> 02:07:35,040
Speaker 1: roulette playing with Molie Willis as your quarterback. They'll lose

2457
02:07:35,080 --> 02:07:35,400
Speaker 1: this time.

2458
02:07:35,960 --> 02:07:39,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. I like Tennessee a lot. In this game.

2459
02:07:39,760 --> 02:07:46,000
Speaker 2: Uh ooh the Giants a mockery that the Giants are.

2460
02:07:46,200 --> 02:07:52,800
Speaker 2: They're just pathetic and U and then the Browns Deshaun

2461
02:07:52,840 --> 02:07:56,480
Speaker 2: Watson just flat out steaks. I mean, just he stakes.

2462
02:07:57,080 --> 02:07:59,800
Speaker 2: And it's a shame because that's a good team and

2463
02:08:00,160 --> 02:08:04,879
Speaker 2: he is borderline unplayable. That they should have kept Flacco.

2464
02:08:07,560 --> 02:08:09,560
Speaker 1: They should have kept Flacco. I just can't even say

2465
02:08:09,560 --> 02:08:12,280
Speaker 1: that with the straight face and your right, it's gross,

2466
02:08:12,480 --> 02:08:17,160
Speaker 1: but you're right, and you know, to be as bad

2467
02:08:17,560 --> 02:08:21,000
Speaker 1: as Deshaun is on a roster that's got the potential

2468
02:08:21,120 --> 02:08:23,760
Speaker 1: that they have is just it's got to be making

2469
02:08:23,800 --> 02:08:27,840
Speaker 1: everybody sick. It really does. And I don't I can't

2470
02:08:27,920 --> 02:08:31,560
Speaker 1: imagine it, like as a fan, as an organization. If

2471
02:08:31,600 --> 02:08:34,920
Speaker 1: I'm Miles Garrett, I mean everybody in this process. I

2472
02:08:35,160 --> 02:08:36,520
Speaker 1: just I cannot imagine it.

2473
02:08:38,560 --> 02:08:44,040
Speaker 2: Ah, where we're at. Cults and bears, this line's crazy

2474
02:08:44,120 --> 02:08:47,800
Speaker 2: culture are one point favorite. I don't see how that's possible.

2475
02:08:48,960 --> 02:08:51,520
Speaker 2: I think I think their they I think they went

2476
02:08:51,560 --> 02:08:52,720
Speaker 2: by double ditch tomorrow.

2477
02:08:53,520 --> 02:08:57,600
Speaker 1: I also, at the same time, though there's this shock

2478
02:08:57,680 --> 02:09:02,240
Speaker 1: and awe over what we're seeing now around Anthony Richardson,

2479
02:09:02,280 --> 02:09:04,160
Speaker 1: and it's like, what did you expect?

2480
02:09:04,520 --> 02:09:04,680
Speaker 2: You know?

2481
02:09:04,840 --> 02:09:08,240
Speaker 1: Like to me, there's this little element of what Anthony

2482
02:09:08,320 --> 02:09:12,480
Speaker 1: Richardson so far is is exactly who he was when

2483
02:09:12,560 --> 02:09:14,560
Speaker 1: he was at Florida. Like he's gonna make a throw

2484
02:09:14,640 --> 02:09:17,120
Speaker 1: that you've never seen before. You cannot believe that anybody

2485
02:09:17,280 --> 02:09:19,840
Speaker 1: was capable of making that. Then he's gonna miss somebody

2486
02:09:19,880 --> 02:09:22,040
Speaker 1: wide open, like he's just they need to do what

2487
02:09:22,120 --> 02:09:24,200
Speaker 1: the Bills did with Josh Allen. Just tell all of

2488
02:09:24,280 --> 02:09:26,760
Speaker 1: us to shut up, just go back and say we're

2489
02:09:26,760 --> 02:09:29,000
Speaker 1: gonna it's gonna take three years, Like it took three

2490
02:09:29,040 --> 02:09:31,280
Speaker 1: years for Josh Allen to get great, and by the way,

2491
02:09:32,080 --> 02:09:34,400
Speaker 1: they lost year one of Anthony Richardson, so now you

2492
02:09:34,480 --> 02:09:37,040
Speaker 1: could be looking at three additional years to get to

2493
02:09:37,120 --> 02:09:40,320
Speaker 1: the point they're great. So, like, I just think everybody

2494
02:09:40,400 --> 02:09:42,120
Speaker 1: needs to calm down and understand the up and down

2495
02:09:42,240 --> 02:09:45,040
Speaker 1: is who Anthony Richardson is. Shane Stiken needs to get

2496
02:09:45,080 --> 02:09:47,920
Speaker 1: this under control and start running the football. Also, I

2497
02:09:48,000 --> 02:09:50,440
Speaker 1: think it's concerning that we've seen so few runs from

2498
02:09:50,440 --> 02:09:53,000
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson. You can't take away the entirety of what

2499
02:09:53,160 --> 02:09:55,600
Speaker 1: makes him a special quarterback, whether it's on him or

2500
02:09:55,600 --> 02:09:57,000
Speaker 1: whether it's on the offense. They got to find a

2501
02:09:57,040 --> 02:09:58,040
Speaker 1: way to get him more involved.

2502
02:09:58,480 --> 02:10:04,440
Speaker 2: Agreed, that's all the Uh, it got so bad that

2503
02:10:04,560 --> 02:10:08,760
Speaker 2: they had to make a change. So here's Andy Dalton

2504
02:10:09,400 --> 02:10:15,760
Speaker 2: the red rifle against your squad. The Raiders come it

2505
02:10:15,880 --> 02:10:22,600
Speaker 2: all the big win in Baltimore. You gotta be feeling good.

2506
02:10:24,040 --> 02:10:26,000
Speaker 1: I'm nervous. I think you know. The number of times

2507
02:10:26,000 --> 02:10:27,880
Speaker 1: I've seen the Raiders take on a quarterback on a

2508
02:10:27,920 --> 02:10:30,080
Speaker 1: bad team that's suddenly being put in and then lose

2509
02:10:30,160 --> 02:10:32,680
Speaker 1: the game makes me a little nervous. But man, I

2510
02:10:32,680 --> 02:10:36,240
Speaker 1: don't know this is I said earlier. Identity wins. Antonio

2511
02:10:36,360 --> 02:10:39,760
Speaker 1: Pierce's identity is a team that comes out with a fire,

2512
02:10:40,000 --> 02:10:42,880
Speaker 1: like with a thunder of the gods. This week tests

2513
02:10:42,960 --> 02:10:45,160
Speaker 1: that because this is the first time I can think

2514
02:10:45,200 --> 02:10:48,000
Speaker 1: of in Antonio Pierce's short regime with the Raiders if

2515
02:10:48,040 --> 02:10:50,360
Speaker 1: we go back to last year and now where the

2516
02:10:50,440 --> 02:10:53,600
Speaker 1: team has come in a heavy favorite expected to win, right,

2517
02:10:53,720 --> 02:10:56,320
Speaker 1: and that's not something that we're used to. So I'm

2518
02:10:56,360 --> 02:10:58,200
Speaker 1: interested to see if they come out with that fire

2519
02:10:58,280 --> 02:11:00,240
Speaker 1: in their belly and that same level of intent City

2520
02:11:00,280 --> 02:11:02,480
Speaker 1: home opener. They should. I think they should win this

2521
02:11:02,560 --> 02:11:05,880
Speaker 1: game by double digits. If they don't, then you gotta

2522
02:11:05,880 --> 02:11:08,400
Speaker 1: look around and say, Okay, what's going on. Andy Dalton

2523
02:11:08,440 --> 02:11:10,560
Speaker 1: getting into this game? I feel for him because he's

2524
02:11:10,600 --> 02:11:14,000
Speaker 1: not particularly mobile, and Max Crosby is on one right now.

2525
02:11:14,120 --> 02:11:16,800
Speaker 1: So you know, if there's no other reason to watch

2526
02:11:16,840 --> 02:11:19,120
Speaker 1: this game, watch it because Max Crosby is a delight

2527
02:11:19,240 --> 02:11:20,120
Speaker 1: to watch play the game.

2528
02:11:20,560 --> 02:11:23,320
Speaker 2: Oh my god. You know what's amazing about him is

2529
02:11:23,400 --> 02:11:27,920
Speaker 2: that he so wants to be great. Like when you

2530
02:11:28,120 --> 02:11:34,680
Speaker 2: watch a player that is so into their craft that

2531
02:11:34,880 --> 02:11:41,120
Speaker 2: they're obsessed with being great. That's Max. From his workouts

2532
02:11:41,680 --> 02:11:46,680
Speaker 2: to technique, I mean, it's so impressive. You know they

2533
02:11:46,720 --> 02:11:53,480
Speaker 2: do this pass work, this pass rushing, seminar getaway. Yeah,

2534
02:11:53,960 --> 02:11:56,040
Speaker 2: and a lot of the best pass rushes go out

2535
02:11:56,160 --> 02:11:59,240
Speaker 2: they and Max a big part of it. And the

2536
02:11:59,480 --> 02:12:04,520
Speaker 2: amount of the attention to detail on the rush. It's

2537
02:12:04,880 --> 02:12:09,320
Speaker 2: freaking fascinating, dude, It's unbelievable. He's such a great player.

2538
02:12:09,920 --> 02:12:12,880
Speaker 1: I remember interviewing him right after he signed his first

2539
02:12:13,080 --> 02:12:15,360
Speaker 1: huge deal and I asked him what he did the

2540
02:12:15,400 --> 02:12:17,120
Speaker 1: next day, and I was waiting for him to give

2541
02:12:17,160 --> 02:12:18,760
Speaker 1: me the went and bought this, went and did this,

2542
02:12:19,160 --> 02:12:21,120
Speaker 1: and he's like got into the facility at five am,

2543
02:12:21,240 --> 02:12:24,240
Speaker 1: had to work. And it's just like, y'all, if I'd

2544
02:12:24,280 --> 02:12:26,640
Speaker 1: signed one hundred and ten million dollar contract the next

2545
02:12:26,720 --> 02:12:28,760
Speaker 1: day I had taken it off, I would. That's why

2546
02:12:28,800 --> 02:12:31,680
Speaker 1: I'm not Max Crosby right, like one of a million reasons.

2547
02:12:31,760 --> 02:12:34,880
Speaker 1: But there's just guys are wired different. He's wired different.

2548
02:12:34,960 --> 02:12:36,760
Speaker 1: And that moment that they've made a big deal of

2549
02:12:37,200 --> 02:12:39,400
Speaker 1: in the broadcast last week was a big deal where

2550
02:12:39,440 --> 02:12:42,120
Speaker 1: he you know, he pulled Gardner Minshew aside as he

2551
02:12:42,240 --> 02:12:44,320
Speaker 1: was coming off the field after a stupid interception, and

2552
02:12:44,440 --> 02:12:45,760
Speaker 1: Max took that leadership role.

2553
02:12:45,840 --> 02:12:46,000
Speaker 3: Like I.

2554
02:12:46,480 --> 02:12:48,960
Speaker 1: He's more than a defensive player. He is the quarterback.

2555
02:12:49,000 --> 02:12:51,720
Speaker 1: He is the leader. He is the face of this organization.

2556
02:12:52,240 --> 02:12:54,040
Speaker 1: And I can't think of anybody that would be a

2557
02:12:54,120 --> 02:12:56,160
Speaker 1: better face, honestly because of the way he handles it.

2558
02:12:56,760 --> 02:13:03,680
Speaker 2: I know, Uh, Seattle Miami, of course, Uh, it's Shaeweed's

2559
02:13:03,720 --> 02:13:06,600
Speaker 2: We await whether or not to it can make it back,

2560
02:13:06,720 --> 02:13:12,000
Speaker 2: We'll make it back. We'll ever play again. Seahawks, you

2561
02:13:12,120 --> 02:13:12,560
Speaker 2: believe her.

2562
02:13:12,640 --> 02:13:17,640
Speaker 1: The Seahawks, Uh cautiously optimistic with the Seahawks. I think

2563
02:13:17,720 --> 02:13:19,520
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker, the third being out of this game is

2564
02:13:19,560 --> 02:13:22,680
Speaker 1: big though, Like I really do like he's he's an

2565
02:13:22,720 --> 02:13:26,000
Speaker 1: offense saver. So I think it's a little concerning obviously

2566
02:13:26,080 --> 02:13:30,160
Speaker 1: that he's not gonna be there. You got, Yeah, there's

2567
02:13:30,200 --> 02:13:32,880
Speaker 1: no doubt they still they still have capability of running

2568
02:13:32,880 --> 02:13:35,320
Speaker 1: the football. They're gonna have to. It was a particularly

2569
02:13:35,480 --> 02:13:39,080
Speaker 1: uninspired effort against New England. So and I'm still not

2570
02:13:39,200 --> 02:13:41,440
Speaker 1: a big believer that Gino has showed us that he's

2571
02:13:41,520 --> 02:13:45,520
Speaker 1: sustainably a high level quarterback. In the spreer, I think

2572
02:13:45,560 --> 02:13:46,280
Speaker 1: there's some concern.

2573
02:13:47,680 --> 02:13:50,440
Speaker 2: Uh, the best game of the day is a fascinating

2574
02:13:50,480 --> 02:13:56,280
Speaker 2: one Baltimore oh and two need this one bad. They

2575
02:13:56,360 --> 02:14:02,520
Speaker 2: go to Dallas after Dallas gets anoolated by the Saints.

2576
02:14:03,760 --> 02:14:06,600
Speaker 2: This is called to be a fun one man, because

2577
02:14:06,720 --> 02:14:08,560
Speaker 2: the Raiders can't start zero and three.

2578
02:14:10,040 --> 02:14:13,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, And Todd Munkin, the offensive coordinator that I threw

2579
02:14:13,320 --> 02:14:15,720
Speaker 1: under the bus earlier, has to be more disciplined as

2580
02:14:15,760 --> 02:14:18,040
Speaker 1: a play caller, doesn't he Like, Okay, the way to

2581
02:14:18,160 --> 02:14:21,320
Speaker 1: beat Dallas is by running the ball. So you've got

2582
02:14:21,400 --> 02:14:24,280
Speaker 1: Derek Henry run the damn ball like this is This

2583
02:14:24,440 --> 02:14:27,440
Speaker 1: is simple. And if you're Dallas, man, you need to

2584
02:14:27,480 --> 02:14:29,880
Speaker 1: get this offense clicking. I mean, you need to get

2585
02:14:29,960 --> 02:14:32,000
Speaker 1: things going quick and early in this game. You need

2586
02:14:32,080 --> 02:14:34,520
Speaker 1: to get the stink of the New Orleans game out

2587
02:14:34,640 --> 02:14:36,240
Speaker 1: in the first couple of drives. You got to come

2588
02:14:36,240 --> 02:14:38,160
Speaker 1: out and show that like that's not lingering, because I

2589
02:14:38,240 --> 02:14:41,240
Speaker 1: do think losses like that can linger for good teams.

2590
02:14:41,640 --> 02:14:44,560
Speaker 2: I'll be honest with you. I know we've kind of

2591
02:14:45,040 --> 02:14:47,080
Speaker 2: went back and forth on Dallas a little bit. I

2592
02:14:47,240 --> 02:14:50,680
Speaker 2: still don't get them. I don't. I don't think they're

2593
02:14:50,720 --> 02:14:51,160
Speaker 2: that good.

2594
02:14:51,840 --> 02:14:53,160
Speaker 1: I don't. I just don't.

2595
02:14:53,280 --> 02:14:56,360
Speaker 2: I don't know what like other than and to your point,

2596
02:14:56,720 --> 02:15:02,120
Speaker 2: and you're right about this every year at CD, all right,

2597
02:15:03,280 --> 02:15:05,720
Speaker 2: and look, Cooks in the game in the first game

2598
02:15:05,760 --> 02:15:10,560
Speaker 2: looked good, but they're run game. Man, How's that going

2599
02:15:10,640 --> 02:15:11,720
Speaker 2: to sustain a whole year?

2600
02:15:13,320 --> 02:15:15,320
Speaker 1: I don't know if it is. I think they just

2601
02:15:15,440 --> 02:15:17,920
Speaker 1: decided they could win without it. We'll see if they

2602
02:15:17,960 --> 02:15:20,840
Speaker 1: were right about winning without it. But I think that's

2603
02:15:20,880 --> 02:15:25,240
Speaker 1: what they decided. And uh, you know it's certainly I've

2604
02:15:25,280 --> 02:15:27,200
Speaker 1: got plenty of crow to eat. As positive as I've

2605
02:15:27,240 --> 02:15:29,160
Speaker 1: been on him and as bad as they looked last week.

2606
02:15:29,720 --> 02:15:32,360
Speaker 1: If they look that bad again here, I think there's

2607
02:15:32,520 --> 02:15:34,840
Speaker 1: there's reason for absolute panic at that point.

2608
02:15:36,040 --> 02:15:41,120
Speaker 2: I'll tell you I'm shocked like that. NFC East looks horrendous.

2609
02:15:42,280 --> 02:15:46,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, cause you're right so far, it absolutely was terrible.

2610
02:15:47,040 --> 02:15:52,360
Speaker 2: Oh my god, U Lions and Cardinals? Oh, oh my god.

2611
02:15:52,840 --> 02:16:01,240
Speaker 2: Mary uh to Marvin Junior, Wow, Mary looked amic. He

2612
02:16:01,400 --> 02:16:04,160
Speaker 2: gets the rook of value into the first week, he's quiet.

2613
02:16:04,840 --> 02:16:08,120
Speaker 2: Week two, he explodes some big plays down the field.

2614
02:16:08,720 --> 02:16:13,480
Speaker 2: This is a great game, man, Arizona Detroit. I still

2615
02:16:13,600 --> 02:16:15,440
Speaker 2: I am a huge believer in the Lions, even though

2616
02:16:15,480 --> 02:16:17,960
Speaker 2: they lost last week to Tampa. I still think the

2617
02:16:18,040 --> 02:16:21,000
Speaker 2: lines are the best team in the in the NFC.

2618
02:16:21,800 --> 02:16:24,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm a big believer in the Lions. But also,

2619
02:16:24,840 --> 02:16:27,640
Speaker 1: I mean, Murray is, there's plenty of people that owe

2620
02:16:27,640 --> 02:16:30,400
Speaker 1: an apology to the Cardinals because remember it was get

2621
02:16:30,440 --> 02:16:33,600
Speaker 1: out of that contract, go get yourself, Kayleb Williams. Somehow,

2622
02:16:34,200 --> 02:16:37,440
Speaker 1: you know, start over at the quarterback position, and it's like, actually,

2623
02:16:38,120 --> 02:16:39,720
Speaker 1: looks like you kind of did the right thing there

2624
02:16:39,760 --> 02:16:42,959
Speaker 1: because you know you've got your little guys playing lights out. Now,

2625
02:16:43,280 --> 02:16:46,120
Speaker 1: let's be honest, I mean, we see this go awry

2626
02:16:46,320 --> 02:16:49,240
Speaker 1: with it with health every single year. So let's get

2627
02:16:49,240 --> 02:16:52,880
Speaker 1: through an entire year healthy before I turn around and annoint.

2628
02:16:52,959 --> 02:16:54,800
Speaker 1: But man, the way he's playing right now, it's hard

2629
02:16:54,879 --> 02:16:57,560
Speaker 1: not to just step back and say, Holy cow, I

2630
02:16:57,720 --> 02:16:59,240
Speaker 1: know it looks great.

2631
02:17:00,240 --> 02:17:03,120
Speaker 2: Let's take quick time out. The brain's coming up for

2632
02:17:03,640 --> 02:17:06,440
Speaker 2: a little handicapping. We'll take a look at the world

2633
02:17:06,480 --> 02:17:10,760

02:18:00,920 --> 02:18:03,600
Speaker 2: morning Brain, Good morning Anthony.

2647
02:18:03,640 --> 02:18:05,720
Speaker 3: How are you a couple of good football games last night?

2648
02:18:05,720 --> 02:18:06,560
Speaker 3: Were you able to watch them?

2649
02:18:07,160 --> 02:18:10,440
Speaker 2: I know man, I watched of Churs. I watched it

2650
02:18:10,520 --> 02:18:15,920
Speaker 2: all alcohol, hoskered up and guys. Yeah, a tough one

2651
02:18:16,000 --> 02:18:18,800
Speaker 2: last night. I will say this though, ray Ol is

2652
02:18:18,879 --> 02:18:24,920
Speaker 2: the truth. Like he's next year, he's gonna be ridiculous.

2653
02:18:25,760 --> 02:18:29,880
Speaker 3: He'sman Trophy candidate. I actually believe. Yeah, he's really good. Yeah,

2654
02:18:29,959 --> 02:18:33,280
Speaker 3: I mean he's really really good. Uh And yeah, Nebraska

2655
02:18:33,400 --> 02:18:35,800
Speaker 3: the future is right. They have a good coach, they

2656
02:18:35,840 --> 02:18:36,640
Speaker 3: have a good quarterback.

2657
02:18:37,840 --> 02:18:38,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

2658
02:18:38,200 --> 02:18:40,600
Speaker 3: I think that that is a school that is certainly

2659
02:18:41,000 --> 02:18:42,400
Speaker 3: headed in the right direction for sure.

2660
02:18:44,160 --> 02:18:46,480
Speaker 2: So where do we start. Let's start with the college

2661
02:18:46,720 --> 02:18:52,560
Speaker 2: slate today and the big one Tennessee Oklahoma. I don't

2662
02:18:52,720 --> 02:18:55,120
Speaker 2: match ups, man, and more and more I study this game.

2663
02:18:55,320 --> 02:18:57,320
Speaker 2: The more and more I just go, Man, I don't know.

2664
02:18:57,959 --> 02:18:59,800
Speaker 2: I like I like the valves all day.

2665
02:19:01,200 --> 02:19:04,800
Speaker 3: You know, there has not been a line that you

2666
02:19:04,920 --> 02:19:09,480
Speaker 3: go from like before the year started to now where

2667
02:19:10,280 --> 02:19:12,480
Speaker 3: the line has changed this month. Now the line is

2668
02:19:12,560 --> 02:19:16,560
Speaker 3: teering between six and a half and seven. Okay, it's

2669
02:19:16,600 --> 02:19:19,320
Speaker 3: between six and a half nine thing Oklahoma. This year

2670
02:19:19,720 --> 02:19:23,120
Speaker 3: they played obviously a horrible Temple team h and they

2671
02:19:23,160 --> 02:19:24,840
Speaker 3: beat them. Okay, I'm not going to count that game.

2672
02:19:25,480 --> 02:19:27,800
Speaker 3: And then again it's the again, a not so great

2673
02:19:27,879 --> 02:19:30,680
Speaker 3: Houston team. They beat them at like only sixteen to twelve,

2674
02:19:31,200 --> 02:19:34,080
Speaker 3: sixteen to twelve at home. They didn't look great against

2675
02:19:34,120 --> 02:19:38,360
Speaker 3: Tulane and laid the Tennessee team Anthony. That granted, has

2676
02:19:38,440 --> 02:19:42,840
Speaker 3: not had the hardest schedule in the world, but man,

2677
02:19:42,959 --> 02:19:46,879
Speaker 3: what they have done in those games is absolutely unbelievable.

2678
02:19:46,879 --> 02:19:49,200
Speaker 3: They're out gaining the opponents by almost five hundred yards

2679
02:19:49,240 --> 02:19:52,360
Speaker 3: a game and winning by almost sixty points a game

2680
02:19:52,520 --> 02:19:55,560
Speaker 3: in scoring margin. Now again they're toughest. They did play

2681
02:19:55,600 --> 02:19:58,400
Speaker 3: NC State, who's obviously not a great team, but at

2682
02:19:58,480 --> 02:20:01,080
Speaker 3: least it's a you know, certainly probably if there's anyone

2683
02:20:01,120 --> 02:20:04,960
Speaker 3: Oklahoma's played. Look, I mean, for me, this game, I

2684
02:20:05,080 --> 02:20:08,480
Speaker 3: just I wish I'd seen Tennessee play against someone a

2685
02:20:08,640 --> 02:20:12,560
Speaker 3: little bit better, so to speak. I don't know how

2686
02:20:12,680 --> 02:20:16,080
Speaker 3: real they really are. Oklahoma I don't think is very

2687
02:20:16,120 --> 02:20:17,400
Speaker 3: good this year. I think he's just going to be

2688
02:20:17,480 --> 02:20:22,240
Speaker 3: a down Oklahoma year. And I think that they listen,

2689
02:20:22,320 --> 02:20:24,600
Speaker 3: I don't think they're really that good. The question is,

2690
02:20:24,680 --> 02:20:26,480
Speaker 3: can I trust Tennessee to win this game by a

2691
02:20:26,520 --> 02:20:29,039
Speaker 3: touchdown on the road. But what they've done so far

2692
02:20:29,040 --> 02:20:31,600
Speaker 3: are the answers. Yes, I didn't personally bet this game.

2693
02:20:31,640 --> 02:20:34,760
Speaker 3: It's the game I'm looking at that potentially live. I

2694
02:20:34,920 --> 02:20:37,040
Speaker 3: just don't know if I have enough gata to trust Tennessee.

2695
02:20:37,080 --> 02:20:40,960
Speaker 3: But obviously the pure numbers have been so dominant with

2696
02:20:41,000 --> 02:20:43,560
Speaker 3: them that's probably you know. I'm not looking at faith

2697
02:20:43,560 --> 02:20:43,920
Speaker 3: them either.

2698
02:20:45,240 --> 02:20:47,400
Speaker 1: So if that's where you are in Tennessee, which I

2699
02:20:47,480 --> 02:20:49,560
Speaker 1: totally understand, where are you on Ohio State because you

2700
02:20:49,640 --> 02:20:51,960
Speaker 1: were talking earlier about the fact that they played literally nobody.

2701
02:20:53,240 --> 02:20:55,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, well look Ohio State, and well they played in

2702
02:20:55,200 --> 02:20:58,240
Speaker 3: Marshall today and I mean looks. I mean they're laying around.

2703
02:20:58,320 --> 02:21:01,119
Speaker 3: I think it's around what he points or so Ohio

2704
02:21:01,200 --> 02:21:04,800
Speaker 3: State does not look It's funny. I've been a tad

2705
02:21:04,879 --> 02:21:07,760
Speaker 3: disappointed with Ohio States so far and how they've looked.

2706
02:21:09,200 --> 02:21:10,920
Speaker 3: I don't eve think they look I have a couple

2707
02:21:10,920 --> 02:21:12,840
Speaker 3: of these games against bad teams that let the teams

2708
02:21:12,840 --> 02:21:15,280
Speaker 3: hang around the first half, but they still have such

2709
02:21:15,320 --> 02:21:17,360
Speaker 3: an impressive roster. In my opinion, the team I've been

2710
02:21:17,400 --> 02:21:19,280
Speaker 3: most impressed with, which I don't think this is a

2711
02:21:19,280 --> 02:21:22,000
Speaker 3: surprise anyone has been in Texas. Uh, that's the team

2712
02:21:22,080 --> 02:21:24,800
Speaker 3: right now today that I think has like sort of

2713
02:21:24,840 --> 02:21:26,560
Speaker 3: speak Book of the Eye the Tiger, so to speak.

2714
02:21:26,560 --> 02:21:29,120
Speaker 3: The team to me that right now has obviously potentially

2715
02:21:29,320 --> 02:21:32,000
Speaker 3: arguably the two best quarterbacks in college football. Maybe it's

2716
02:21:32,040 --> 02:21:34,520
Speaker 3: not impossible to say that Ohio State is going to

2717
02:21:34,560 --> 02:21:36,040
Speaker 3: make the playoffs. I think they're going to win the

2718
02:21:36,080 --> 02:21:37,960
Speaker 3: Big Ten. I think they're going to be a very

2719
02:21:38,040 --> 02:21:41,520
Speaker 3: tough out. But have not been quite as impressed with

2720
02:21:41,600 --> 02:21:42,680
Speaker 3: them as I thought I would be.

2721
02:21:44,120 --> 02:21:48,040
Speaker 2: Ask you about or you're a Michigan guy, what orgy

2722
02:21:48,800 --> 02:21:51,320
Speaker 2: the books? Still you still even know? Could he throw

2723
02:21:51,520 --> 02:21:53,200
Speaker 2: cand he throw it where? Nobody knows?

2724
02:21:54,360 --> 02:21:57,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting. Look what they used him a not

2725
02:21:57,480 --> 02:21:59,880
Speaker 3: a lot. But last year, Anthony, he would come in

2726
02:22:00,000 --> 02:22:02,840
Speaker 3: and uh, and they usually come in to run the

2727
02:22:02,879 --> 02:22:04,720
Speaker 3: ball like and he would come in and usually and

2728
02:22:04,760 --> 02:22:06,439
Speaker 3: made a couple of big running plays.

2729
02:22:06,959 --> 02:22:08,959
Speaker 2: And looking yeah.

2730
02:22:09,720 --> 02:22:11,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, he helped in a couple of games actually with

2731
02:22:11,440 --> 02:22:14,360
Speaker 3: a couple individual plays where but again I don't really

2732
02:22:14,360 --> 02:22:16,280
Speaker 3: remember the letting him pass the ball much. It was

2733
02:22:16,320 --> 02:22:19,200
Speaker 3: basically just come in there, you have the extra blocker,

2734
02:22:19,200 --> 02:22:22,400
Speaker 3: and let him run. Now, Davis Warren was just awful,

2735
02:22:23,000 --> 02:22:26,400
Speaker 3: awful to me. It's just one of those things where

2736
02:22:26,400 --> 02:22:28,120
Speaker 3: I don't think they could keep playing Davis Warren. I

2737
02:22:28,160 --> 02:22:30,800
Speaker 3: think Davis Warren was a nice story, but you just

2738
02:22:30,879 --> 02:22:33,040
Speaker 3: see he just didn't have the goods, so to speak.

2739
02:22:33,440 --> 02:22:35,680
Speaker 3: I don't love what he's passing. Vote from nsaid, I

2740
02:22:35,720 --> 02:22:37,720
Speaker 3: don't know if he has any Like you said, I

2741
02:22:37,760 --> 02:22:40,520
Speaker 3: don't know if he have any, but I think we

2742
02:22:40,640 --> 02:22:42,520
Speaker 3: saw that Davis Warren. Look if they run the ball

2743
02:22:42,560 --> 02:22:46,120
Speaker 3: with Alex Orgi where he runs the ball seventeen times,

2744
02:22:46,160 --> 02:22:48,320
Speaker 3: I think they have more success than Davis Warren passed

2745
02:22:48,360 --> 02:22:52,080
Speaker 3: the ball seventeen times. Potentially. I don't think USC is

2746
02:22:52,160 --> 02:22:54,880
Speaker 3: nearly as good as texts the line for somewhat carrible.

2747
02:22:54,879 --> 02:22:57,000
Speaker 3: I think his game is can be close. But again

2748
02:22:57,360 --> 02:23:01,240
Speaker 3: Michigan's offenses looked so future guys, so futured. And I

2749
02:23:01,360 --> 02:23:04,400
Speaker 3: do think Lincoln Riley is a better coach than your

2750
02:23:04,440 --> 02:23:08,400
Speaker 3: own more. I trust Riley much more in a game

2751
02:23:08,560 --> 02:23:12,160
Speaker 3: like this. But again, Games in the Road is in

2752
02:23:12,240 --> 02:23:14,760
Speaker 3: the big house, and again they see it not a

2753
02:23:14,840 --> 02:23:18,640
Speaker 3: game I personally bet. But again I will say I

2754
02:23:18,680 --> 02:23:20,280
Speaker 3: don't think Michigan is going to get blown out in

2755
02:23:20,320 --> 02:23:21,720
Speaker 3: this one at all like they did against SEXT. I

2756
02:23:21,760 --> 02:23:23,080
Speaker 3: think this game is be a close game.

2757
02:23:23,760 --> 02:23:25,840
Speaker 1: Is there a heavy favorite today or a favorite in

2758
02:23:25,920 --> 02:23:29,039
Speaker 1: general that you just don't like, Well.

2759
02:23:29,280 --> 02:23:31,320
Speaker 3: Well I'm gonna flip it on you and give you one.

2760
02:23:31,360 --> 02:23:34,440
Speaker 3: I really have a favorite I do like if that's okay, sure,

2761
02:23:34,760 --> 02:23:39,480
Speaker 3: I really like l s U against UCLA. Two reasons here.

2762
02:23:39,520 --> 02:23:41,480
Speaker 3: First of all, l s U again, and it seems

2763
02:23:41,520 --> 02:23:44,760
Speaker 3: like the market is really hating LSU right now. And

2764
02:23:44,920 --> 02:23:47,480
Speaker 3: look I get it. You know, they lost the first

2765
02:23:47,560 --> 02:23:51,560
Speaker 3: game to USC. It's a close game, they did lose it.

2766
02:23:52,440 --> 02:23:54,280
Speaker 3: And then look they did make a nice comeback winning

2767
02:23:54,280 --> 02:23:56,080
Speaker 3: in Top Coroline. But the one thing they can do

2768
02:23:56,360 --> 02:23:59,400
Speaker 3: is score. Okay, they will be able to score. You see,

2769
02:23:59,520 --> 02:24:03,560
Speaker 3: eight in me has been absolutely like, I think, the

2770
02:24:03,720 --> 02:24:07,039
Speaker 3: least impressive team of any team I've seen this year.

2771
02:24:07,240 --> 02:24:10,440
Speaker 3: I honestly I think they've been They played two games

2772
02:24:10,600 --> 02:24:13,400
Speaker 3: and they've been absolutely instrocious in books. I backed them

2773
02:24:13,440 --> 02:24:16,840
Speaker 3: against Hawaii, who's awful. They beat them by a field

2774
02:24:16,879 --> 02:24:22,240
Speaker 3: goal in Indiana, who's law beat them by thirty points

2775
02:24:22,320 --> 02:24:26,280
Speaker 3: last week. I just think this team is potentially going

2776
02:24:26,360 --> 02:24:29,440
Speaker 3: to be like two and ten bad. I think they're

2777
02:24:29,480 --> 02:24:32,240
Speaker 3: that bad. UCA, I think. And this line has gone

2778
02:24:32,280 --> 02:24:35,720
Speaker 3: down from twenty four to twenty one. I really think

2779
02:24:35,800 --> 02:24:37,280
Speaker 3: this is one of these games and I talk about

2780
02:24:37,320 --> 02:24:40,200
Speaker 3: the campon all the time that halftime you're going to

2781
02:24:40,240 --> 02:24:44,320
Speaker 3: see like thirty five seven LSU. I think it's gonna

2782
02:24:44,320 --> 02:24:47,560
Speaker 3: be one of these games that you're covering at halftime

2783
02:24:47,640 --> 02:24:50,320
Speaker 3: that kind of after. I know it's a big number,

2784
02:24:50,760 --> 02:24:52,720
Speaker 3: and I know the market section we're going from twenty

2785
02:24:52,760 --> 02:24:56,280
Speaker 3: four to twenty one. I don't again, I just personally

2786
02:24:56,360 --> 02:24:58,760
Speaker 3: think that the East is really really bad.

2787
02:25:00,200 --> 02:25:04,360
Speaker 2: Think I'm done. I'm with you. Any any thoughts on

2788
02:25:04,760 --> 02:25:06,640
Speaker 2: Utah Oklahoma State.

2789
02:25:10,800 --> 02:25:13,480
Speaker 3: It's interesting that well, that's that's the thing. Like I've

2790
02:25:13,520 --> 02:25:18,840
Speaker 3: heard some conflicting things on how healthy Cam Rising is okay,

2791
02:25:19,440 --> 02:25:22,080
Speaker 3: uh and to me, you know, I came Rising to

2792
02:25:22,160 --> 02:25:24,520
Speaker 3: me is I'm a huge fan of that guy. I

2793
02:25:24,600 --> 02:25:28,720
Speaker 3: think he's like a total uh really good player and

2794
02:25:29,280 --> 02:25:31,560
Speaker 3: he's one of my favorite, one of my favorite guys

2795
02:25:32,240 --> 02:25:35,520
Speaker 3: now list the Oklahoma State I've been impressed with. This

2796
02:25:35,720 --> 02:25:38,880
Speaker 3: line has slipped multiple times because here's what happened. Uh,

2797
02:25:39,000 --> 02:25:42,120
Speaker 3: there was Utah was about a two point favorite. Then

2798
02:25:42,160 --> 02:25:44,160
Speaker 3: there was news that came out. I got news. I

2799
02:25:44,200 --> 02:25:47,640
Speaker 3: didn't play it that potentially Rising was more hurt than

2800
02:25:47,680 --> 02:25:50,400
Speaker 3: people thought. But I investigated. I didn't necessarily think that.

2801
02:25:50,800 --> 02:25:52,640
Speaker 3: Now it looks like he's probably gonna be more okay

2802
02:25:52,680 --> 02:25:55,080
Speaker 3: than people think. So it went from Utah being a

2803
02:25:55,080 --> 02:25:57,520
Speaker 3: slight favorite to Oklahoma State being a slight favorite. Now

2804
02:25:57,560 --> 02:26:00,480
Speaker 3: it's back to Utah being a slight favorite. Look, I

2805
02:26:00,560 --> 02:26:02,480
Speaker 3: think this is going to be the probably, in my opinion,

2806
02:26:02,480 --> 02:26:04,720
Speaker 3: if I could watch one game of an entire card,

2807
02:26:05,400 --> 02:26:09,080
Speaker 3: this would be the game I'd want to watch. Very

2808
02:26:09,120 --> 02:26:11,400
Speaker 3: tough game for me. I have a ton of respect

2809
02:26:11,480 --> 02:26:13,960
Speaker 3: for Utah, I really really do, but I also have

2810
02:26:14,000 --> 02:26:17,760
Speaker 3: a lot of respect for Oklahoma State. Oklahoma State defense

2811
02:26:17,879 --> 02:26:21,760
Speaker 3: is not that good though Gounda usually plays well at home. Look,

2812
02:26:21,879 --> 02:26:24,280
Speaker 3: I thought this line should be you tall by about

2813
02:26:24,320 --> 02:26:26,680
Speaker 3: one and a half. You know it's about Utah by

2814
02:26:26,720 --> 02:26:31,760
Speaker 3: one right now. Great game. I really think it's going

2815
02:26:31,800 --> 02:26:33,120
Speaker 3: to be a come down to the end. Again, not

2816
02:26:33,200 --> 02:26:34,840
Speaker 3: a personal game. I bet I will give you another

2817
02:26:34,920 --> 02:26:37,240
Speaker 3: college game I do you like And it's a team

2818
02:26:37,280 --> 02:26:39,960
Speaker 3: to people again, another team that the market doesn't really love,

2819
02:26:40,040 --> 02:26:45,360
Speaker 3: and that's Colorado. I have backbailed twice, actually cash with

2820
02:26:45,440 --> 02:26:48,680
Speaker 3: them twice, and they have a good defense, but I

2821
02:26:48,720 --> 02:26:51,920
Speaker 3: have not been impressed with their offense even a little bit.

2822
02:26:53,320 --> 02:26:56,039
Speaker 3: I actually think Colorado will be able to handle them offensively,

2823
02:26:56,720 --> 02:27:00,760
Speaker 3: and I do think Colorado at home will be able

2824
02:27:01,040 --> 02:27:02,760
Speaker 3: to win this game. This game is to pick them.

2825
02:27:03,520 --> 02:27:05,360
Speaker 3: I in Colorado win this game by let's call it

2826
02:27:05,360 --> 02:27:07,320
Speaker 3: at least a touchdown. So I like Colorado. I think

2827
02:27:07,320 --> 02:27:10,400
Speaker 3: They've been a little bit undervalued here, and I'm not

2828
02:27:11,080 --> 02:27:13,280
Speaker 3: not been that impressed with Daale because I've actually watched

2829
02:27:13,320 --> 02:27:17,200
Speaker 3: them very closely both these games and have not come

2830
02:27:17,240 --> 02:27:19,320
Speaker 3: away impressed from either either performance.

2831
02:27:20,520 --> 02:27:22,080
Speaker 1: All right, so let's switch to the NFL for a

2832
02:27:22,120 --> 02:27:26,680
Speaker 1: minute here, because everybody's survivor pools are all dead. Yeah,

2833
02:27:26,720 --> 02:27:30,200
Speaker 1: I mean, this is just it feels unprecedented. Is it unprecedented?

2834
02:27:30,280 --> 02:27:31,840
Speaker 1: Like it just feels like this year has been a

2835
02:27:31,959 --> 02:27:33,080
Speaker 1: weird and wild start.

2836
02:27:33,920 --> 02:27:36,080
Speaker 3: It's interesting. I think I heard a stat that this

2837
02:27:36,240 --> 02:27:38,920
Speaker 3: is the first time in NFL history, if if you

2838
02:27:39,000 --> 02:27:41,560
Speaker 3: listen to this, there's not been a double digit favorite

2839
02:27:41,640 --> 02:27:45,200
Speaker 3: in the first three games in the NFL season. Okay,

2840
02:27:45,440 --> 02:27:47,440
Speaker 3: I mean, like think about that. I mean it just

2841
02:27:47,640 --> 02:27:50,760
Speaker 3: there's the parody, you know, back in the day, Peter Roselle,

2842
02:27:50,760 --> 02:27:54,360
Speaker 3: I want parody. I mean, yeah, for me, the top

2843
02:27:54,440 --> 02:27:56,400
Speaker 3: I've never seen it like this, Like usually I do

2844
02:27:56,520 --> 02:28:00,959
Speaker 3: power rikings for every team. This is the lowest I've

2845
02:28:01,040 --> 02:28:04,959
Speaker 3: ever had like a top team ranked, Like, I think

2846
02:28:05,080 --> 02:28:07,560
Speaker 3: that the difference between being an average team and the

2847
02:28:07,640 --> 02:28:10,440
Speaker 3: best team NFL is the lowest it's ever been as

2848
02:28:10,480 --> 02:28:13,840
Speaker 3: of today. I mean, things can flip obviously as of today.

2849
02:28:14,080 --> 02:28:15,560
Speaker 3: So yeah, to answer your question, yeah, I mean this

2850
02:28:15,640 --> 02:28:18,760
Speaker 3: is that obviously makes things like Survivor Pulls way harder

2851
02:28:19,120 --> 02:28:21,560
Speaker 3: because you know, you're looking for a team that can

2852
02:28:21,600 --> 02:28:25,039
Speaker 3: get margins, can get spread. Uh, those games are harder

2853
02:28:25,080 --> 02:28:26,840
Speaker 3: to find now, they really really are.

2854
02:28:29,040 --> 02:28:34,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I do. I'm with you. It's the parodies there,

2855
02:28:35,640 --> 02:28:40,160
Speaker 2: the defenses there, It's it's a sea change, like the

2856
02:28:40,320 --> 02:28:44,120
Speaker 2: kind of back in the day. Like it's it's pretty interesting,

2857
02:28:44,120 --> 02:28:46,480
Speaker 2: all right. So let's go through a couple of games

2858
02:28:46,520 --> 02:28:51,240
Speaker 2: that you may like. I know you're like, I love Houston.

2859
02:28:51,320 --> 02:28:55,720
Speaker 2: You and I we don't. It's funny on Friday's Brains

2860
02:28:55,800 --> 02:28:58,840
Speaker 2: with me on my local show, and we don't go

2861
02:28:58,959 --> 02:29:02,600
Speaker 2: over at fits Go. I love the Texans. We both

2862
02:29:02,680 --> 02:29:06,280
Speaker 2: love the Jets. He had a big coin on the Jets.

2863
02:29:10,160 --> 02:29:12,879
Speaker 3: I do it's funny if the Texans and it's intertting.

2864
02:29:12,920 --> 02:29:15,360
Speaker 3: Two of my biggest buy on teams before the year

2865
02:29:15,680 --> 02:29:18,800
Speaker 3: with the Vikings and the Texans, so and I really

2866
02:29:19,360 --> 02:29:22,480
Speaker 3: had a feeling that Donald with O'Connor, who is going

2867
02:29:22,560 --> 02:29:24,280
Speaker 3: to play the best he's played in his career, which

2868
02:29:24,320 --> 02:29:25,959
Speaker 3: I guess isn't saying much because he hasn't only done

2869
02:29:25,959 --> 02:29:29,480
Speaker 3: anything in his career, but he's really, through two games,

2870
02:29:29,560 --> 02:29:32,480
Speaker 3: looked much more impressive than he looked at any point

2871
02:29:32,560 --> 02:29:35,440
Speaker 3: in his career. I really like what Minnesota is doing,

2872
02:29:35,600 --> 02:29:37,840
Speaker 3: I truly do, but I think Houston's in a different class.

2873
02:29:38,280 --> 02:29:40,840
Speaker 3: I think Houston right now, in my opinion, would be

2874
02:29:40,920 --> 02:29:42,880
Speaker 3: my pick to go to the super Bowl out of AFC.

2875
02:29:43,360 --> 02:29:46,040
Speaker 3: I just love how they're set up. I love now

2876
02:29:46,080 --> 02:29:48,200
Speaker 3: they don't have Joe Mixon this one, which I think

2877
02:29:48,280 --> 02:29:50,120
Speaker 3: will hurt them a little bit. Cam Akers is to

2878
02:29:50,240 --> 02:29:52,480
Speaker 3: me a legitimate downgrade there, but I just think the

2879
02:29:52,520 --> 02:29:54,920
Speaker 3: infrastructure with those two receivers in that quarterback, I just

2880
02:29:55,000 --> 02:29:56,640
Speaker 3: think they're a better team in Minnesota. Not say it's

2881
02:29:56,680 --> 02:29:58,520
Speaker 3: gonna be a blowout, but I thought the fine should

2882
02:29:58,520 --> 02:30:00,160
Speaker 3: have been at least a field goal. I really do.

2883
02:30:01,040 --> 02:30:03,120
Speaker 3: And I think Houston is just I really liked them

2884
02:30:03,160 --> 02:30:04,760
Speaker 3: only laying one and a half points. I think that

2885
02:30:04,879 --> 02:30:07,160
Speaker 3: line is at least a point and a half too short. Well,

2886
02:30:07,280 --> 02:30:09,160
Speaker 3: it's probably what I got there is my best game

2887
02:30:09,200 --> 02:30:09,560
Speaker 3: of the week.

2888
02:30:10,360 --> 02:30:12,680
Speaker 1: What are you doing with the Chiefs without Isaiah pa Checko?

2889
02:30:12,760 --> 02:30:16,320
Speaker 3: Now, you know it's funny like the Chiefs, I got

2890
02:30:16,400 --> 02:30:19,480
Speaker 3: to tell you. Look, they got it. Look, well, I

2891
02:30:19,520 --> 02:30:23,200
Speaker 3: thought they deserved to beat Baltimore. I did the game

2892
02:30:23,320 --> 02:30:28,520
Speaker 3: last week. I felt they were massively outplayed. I felt

2893
02:30:28,600 --> 02:30:31,720
Speaker 3: they got They got a defensive touchdown on a flute play.

2894
02:30:32,600 --> 02:30:35,400
Speaker 3: That pass interference on fourth and sixteen, well, I guess

2895
02:30:35,440 --> 02:30:39,440
Speaker 3: it was technically pass interference. It was it was an

2896
02:30:39,480 --> 02:30:42,880
Speaker 3: unnecessary penalty by the defensive back and they should have

2897
02:30:42,920 --> 02:30:45,360
Speaker 3: lost that game. Stone coach should have lost it. I

2898
02:30:45,520 --> 02:30:48,360
Speaker 3: downgraded the Chiefs in my rankings point in a half

2899
02:30:48,440 --> 02:30:51,560
Speaker 3: and I think losing to Checko is a huge loss.

2900
02:30:51,640 --> 02:30:53,960
Speaker 3: I thought he was the second most important aspect of

2901
02:30:54,000 --> 02:30:56,160
Speaker 3: their team last year in getting to the Super Bowl.

2902
02:30:56,480 --> 02:30:58,560
Speaker 3: Now they have a pote prie of guys like with

2903
02:30:58,720 --> 02:31:02,800
Speaker 3: you know, Smash t Ryan, potentially kareem On, potentially Carson Steel.

2904
02:31:03,400 --> 02:31:04,360
Speaker 3: But I don't know if any of them. I know,

2905
02:31:04,480 --> 02:31:06,280
Speaker 3: not Manio as good as but Checko. I know that

2906
02:31:06,440 --> 02:31:08,800
Speaker 3: for a fact, and I think that's going to hurt

2907
02:31:08,840 --> 02:31:11,119
Speaker 3: this Chiefs team. The Marquis bounce now out for the season,

2908
02:31:12,160 --> 02:31:14,200
Speaker 3: Kelsey and me looks a lot slower than he was

2909
02:31:14,320 --> 02:31:16,800
Speaker 3: last year. Now the face thing a Falcons team I

2910
02:31:16,800 --> 02:31:19,119
Speaker 3: don't think is all that great. But this line opened

2911
02:31:19,120 --> 02:31:20,760
Speaker 3: to the up look at line was like five. It's

2912
02:31:20,840 --> 02:31:24,200
Speaker 3: down to three. Listen. I think it's gonna be a

2913
02:31:24,240 --> 02:31:27,400
Speaker 3: tight game at three and a half. I definitely lean Atlanta,

2914
02:31:28,920 --> 02:31:32,560
Speaker 3: but I don't think the Chiefs are. Yeah, I'm not

2915
02:31:32,680 --> 02:31:34,920
Speaker 3: as optimistically necessarily going forward. I think they're gonna I

2916
02:31:34,920 --> 02:31:36,560
Speaker 3: think this injury is going to hurt them be quite

2917
02:31:36,600 --> 02:31:39,240
Speaker 3: a bit. I really really do. I think this is

2918
02:31:39,320 --> 02:31:41,960
Speaker 3: a bad injury for them. Uh one that I don't

2919
02:31:41,959 --> 02:31:43,480
Speaker 3: think they're able going to be able to afford because

2920
02:31:43,480 --> 02:31:46,240
Speaker 3: I don't think they have anyone to replace him as

2921
02:31:46,240 --> 02:31:47,800
Speaker 3: anywhere nearly as good, and I think the way they

2922
02:31:47,920 --> 02:31:50,560
Speaker 3: used him, it's just I think it's a really really

2923
02:31:50,640 --> 02:31:52,240
Speaker 3: gaggerable loss for them. Unfortunately.

2924
02:31:52,800 --> 02:31:57,840
Speaker 2: I give us some other games you like and maybe

2925
02:31:57,920 --> 02:31:59,080
Speaker 2: see crops mix it up.

2926
02:31:59,720 --> 02:32:03,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like I like Green Bad. I'm sorry Tennessee

2927
02:32:03,959 --> 02:32:06,360
Speaker 3: Tennessee again. Screen Bay laying two and a half points.

2928
02:32:06,959 --> 02:32:09,440
Speaker 3: I'm pretty confident, Jordan, what's not gonna play? Guys, And

2929
02:32:10,000 --> 02:32:13,200
Speaker 3: to me, Malik Willis potentially is as bad as any

2930
02:32:13,240 --> 02:32:16,959
Speaker 3: story in quarterback will be playing in all Sunday, especially

2931
02:32:17,200 --> 02:32:20,120
Speaker 3: Bright Shoung is out and I ain't gonna see really

2932
02:32:20,200 --> 02:32:22,640
Speaker 3: the h TO two team that should have been to

2933
02:32:22,760 --> 02:32:25,440
Speaker 3: and oh they outplayed the Jets, they outplayed the Bears.

2934
02:32:25,959 --> 02:32:28,280
Speaker 3: Levis made two brain cramps that cost some those games.

2935
02:32:28,760 --> 02:32:31,360
Speaker 3: Really like this Titans team. I think they win this

2936
02:32:31,440 --> 02:32:33,160
Speaker 3: game by double digits. I don't think it's gonna be

2937
02:32:33,280 --> 02:32:36,600
Speaker 3: that close. Lower scoring game obviously, but I really like

2938
02:32:36,680 --> 02:32:39,440
Speaker 3: the Titans quite a bit. I'll give you another game.

2939
02:32:40,480 --> 02:32:42,640
Speaker 3: But the Rams forty nine Ers game, Look, this is

2940
02:32:42,840 --> 02:32:45,200
Speaker 3: I mean the forty nine ers are potentially missing. I mean,

2941
02:32:45,480 --> 02:32:48,880
Speaker 3: I again, this is like a hoozo who's out? The

2942
02:32:48,959 --> 02:32:52,600
Speaker 3: forty nine ers penture to be missing, McCaffrey, deebo Kittle,

2943
02:32:53,240 --> 02:32:59,600
Speaker 3: Bosa Ward. I again, it's like the next man up thing.

2944
02:32:59,720 --> 02:33:01,840
Speaker 3: I know that Rams are missing the two receivers. I

2945
02:33:01,959 --> 02:33:06,200
Speaker 3: get it, and looking, yeah, iither, but they are getting

2946
02:33:06,240 --> 02:33:09,920
Speaker 3: one of their guys back off suspension, one of the starters.

2947
02:33:09,959 --> 02:33:12,200
Speaker 3: But yeah, listen, both teams are just deafnained interest. But

2948
02:33:12,280 --> 02:33:15,280
Speaker 3: to me, uh, this line before the year probably have

2949
02:33:15,320 --> 02:33:18,160
Speaker 3: been close to three and a half. I think the

2950
02:33:18,240 --> 02:33:21,240
Speaker 3: injuries are probably more more so for San Francisco than

2951
02:33:21,280 --> 02:33:23,959
Speaker 3: the Rams. Vanning, I think seven is just too much.

2952
02:33:24,280 --> 02:33:27,840
Speaker 3: I do. I think it's too much, and I personally

2953
02:33:28,000 --> 02:33:29,879
Speaker 3: think that the Rams can keep them winning a touchdown.

2954
02:33:30,080 --> 02:33:32,000
Speaker 3: I know they were absolutely got awful L's weich, I

2955
02:33:32,040 --> 02:33:35,000
Speaker 3: get it, but I just sick with all the injuries

2956
02:33:35,080 --> 02:33:36,440
Speaker 3: to this forty nine Ers team. I don't like the

2957
02:33:36,480 --> 02:33:38,720
Speaker 3: forty nine Ers are that good right now? I really don't.

2958
02:33:39,320 --> 02:33:42,000
Speaker 3: I say the game is a close game, and you

2959
02:33:42,080 --> 02:33:43,280
Speaker 3: want to give me a touchdown, I'm.

2960
02:33:43,160 --> 02:33:46,360
Speaker 2: Gonna gladly take it, all right, I like it, buddy,

2961
02:33:46,440 --> 02:33:50,520
Speaker 2: good stuff. Listen, best of luck to you. Keep cashing

2962
02:33:50,600 --> 02:33:52,240
Speaker 2: those bitcoins, man, all right.

2963
02:33:52,920 --> 02:33:55,320
Speaker 3: I like the and Teezers. Also. I like the Bengals.

2964
02:33:55,320 --> 02:33:58,000
Speaker 3: Everyone in Teezers. He's them down from minus seven last one.

2965
02:33:58,280 --> 02:34:00,440
Speaker 3: They'll fully expect Joe Burrow on Prime playing out of

2966
02:34:00,480 --> 02:34:02,640
Speaker 3: the game and to beat Washington easily. You can take

2967
02:34:02,680 --> 02:34:05,360
Speaker 3: down like twenty games. You can seese them with, and

2968
02:34:05,440 --> 02:34:06,800
Speaker 3: the Bengals will be the game that I would look

2969
02:34:06,840 --> 02:34:07,800
Speaker 3: to anchor those teasers.

2970
02:34:08,520 --> 02:34:11,320
Speaker 2: Love it good stuff there. He is the brain at

2981
02:34:58,720 --> 02:35:03,280
Speaker 2: that you're looking forward to the most this weekend. The

2982
02:35:03,440 --> 02:35:07,080
Speaker 2: fact that you guys could go two and one, I

2983
02:35:07,160 --> 02:35:08,360
Speaker 2: guess is number one, right.

2984
02:35:09,040 --> 02:35:12,520
Speaker 1: I mean, look, the opportunity to watch a game that

2985
02:35:12,600 --> 02:35:15,360
Speaker 1: I feel good about like, and then let's be honest,

2986
02:35:15,480 --> 02:35:17,440
Speaker 1: like one week at a time when your team is

2987
02:35:17,440 --> 02:35:19,080
Speaker 1: stunk for a long time, but the Raiders have the

2988
02:35:19,160 --> 02:35:22,240
Speaker 1: Panthers this week, then then they get the Browns after that.

2989
02:35:22,320 --> 02:35:24,560
Speaker 1: Brown's a good team. But I don't trust the Browns quarterback.

2990
02:35:24,920 --> 02:35:28,240
Speaker 1: Then they get the Broncos, Steelers rams. I mean, they've

2991
02:35:28,280 --> 02:35:30,240
Speaker 1: got some winnable games ahead of them like this, This

2992
02:35:30,800 --> 02:35:33,960
Speaker 1: football team, by coming back in that fourth quarter, have

2993
02:35:34,040 --> 02:35:38,199
Speaker 1: given themselves a real opportunity. So yes, I am most excited, obviously,

2994
02:35:38,320 --> 02:35:40,480
Speaker 1: but I think you know, there's this The most compelling

2995
02:35:40,600 --> 02:35:42,880
Speaker 1: game of the weekend, no matter what sport we're talking about,

2996
02:35:43,320 --> 02:35:45,480
Speaker 1: is definitely the Ravens and the Cowboys, because I mean

2997
02:35:45,520 --> 02:35:48,400
Speaker 1: you're talking about two teams with Super Bowl expectations that

2998
02:35:48,480 --> 02:35:50,800
Speaker 1: are both really up against the wall at this point.

2999
02:35:50,920 --> 02:35:53,720
Speaker 1: That's unexpected this early in the season to be talking

3000
02:35:53,760 --> 02:35:54,080
Speaker 1: about that.

3001
02:35:55,160 --> 02:35:59,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, oh in two and obviously the Cowboys,

3002
02:36:00,040 --> 02:36:04,120
Speaker 2: who looks so good Week one, get absolutely destroyed at

3003
02:36:04,160 --> 02:36:07,400
Speaker 2: home like that was that felt like Green Bay all

3004
02:36:07,440 --> 02:36:08,000
Speaker 2: over again.

3005
02:36:08,879 --> 02:36:10,880
Speaker 1: I mean, if the Cowboys are one and two or

3006
02:36:10,920 --> 02:36:13,480
Speaker 1: the Ravens are zero and three, it's gonna be absolute panic.

3007
02:36:13,760 --> 02:36:17,320
Speaker 1: I mean absolute panic from everybody that thought that these

3008
02:36:17,360 --> 02:36:20,320
Speaker 1: were gonna be two huge Super Bowl contenders, you know

3009
02:36:20,360 --> 02:36:23,160
Speaker 1: what I mean, And I know it's early. Frankly, I'm

3010
02:36:23,200 --> 02:36:24,840
Speaker 1: not here for any of the Bengals talk because they

3011
02:36:24,879 --> 02:36:26,120
Speaker 1: do this to us every year and the end of

3012
02:36:26,120 --> 02:36:29,039
Speaker 1: their schedules soft. So like the Bengals gonna be just fine,

3013
02:36:29,200 --> 02:36:32,119
Speaker 1: But watching these teams sort of implode with their own

3014
02:36:32,240 --> 02:36:35,840
Speaker 1: problems and bad coaching, particularly like we spent so much

3015
02:36:35,879 --> 02:36:38,600
Speaker 1: time talking about bad play. Bad coaching has been an

3016
02:36:38,640 --> 02:36:40,720
Speaker 1: epidemic early in this NFL season.

3017
02:36:42,000 --> 02:36:48,560
Speaker 2: I know, man, it's true your spot on. Let me

3018
02:36:48,600 --> 02:36:52,200
Speaker 2: ask you all of it. Monday Night's are first doubleheader

3019
02:36:52,480 --> 02:36:56,720
Speaker 2: Monday Night I love those. I think they should be

3020
02:36:56,800 --> 02:36:58,160
Speaker 2: a regular. Are you in or out?

3021
02:37:00,000 --> 02:37:02,040
Speaker 1: East Coast guy and me, I'm out. I'm out. I

3022
02:37:02,480 --> 02:37:04,240
Speaker 1: don't need I don't need to be split in my focus.

3023
02:37:04,320 --> 02:37:06,039
Speaker 1: I don't need to be up even later on Monday Night.

3024
02:37:06,080 --> 02:37:08,760
Speaker 1: I'm out. Plus, the more we the the more we

3025
02:37:08,840 --> 02:37:11,720
Speaker 1: take away from Sundays the worst. The Sunday afternoon games

3026
02:37:11,720 --> 02:37:14,640
Speaker 1: are I just like a Sunday afternoon that's just yoked

3027
02:37:14,760 --> 02:37:15,600
Speaker 1: with great football.

3028
02:37:17,920 --> 02:37:23,000
Speaker 2: Really, so you think that one game, the one Addie game,

3029
02:37:23,080 --> 02:37:25,000
Speaker 2: the Monday night just kind of it's.

3030
02:37:24,920 --> 02:37:30,560
Speaker 1: One more Monday and Sunday, and then we stack all

3031
02:37:30,680 --> 02:37:33,400
Speaker 1: these games Sunday early, and then all of a sudden,

3032
02:37:33,400 --> 02:37:36,760
Speaker 1: the Sunday four pm. It's like two games. Makes me sad.

3033
02:37:39,240 --> 02:37:42,360
Speaker 1: I like a lot of games. Sunday afternoon, that's the best.

3034
02:37:42,720 --> 02:37:43,240
Speaker 3: I love it.

3035
02:37:43,600 --> 02:37:45,480
Speaker 2: I love it. I get it, I get it. I

3036
02:37:45,840 --> 02:37:48,800
Speaker 2: do love the Monday night. And there's two good games, right,

3037
02:37:48,879 --> 02:37:53,200
Speaker 2: I mean yeah, I mean like Cincinnati and Washington, Buffalo
