Speaker 3: Bill Bird gives his mount rushmore of Boston athletes.

6
00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:15,880
Speaker 2: So what's your Boston hierarchy of sports?

7
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 4: Boston hierarchy? Well, pick, I'll give you my top five

8
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:33,599
Speaker 4: top five, and okay, you gotta go Bill Russell. As

9
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 4: far as the Celtics hierarchy, Bill Russell, that's the foundation.

10
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 1: Bird.

11
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:42,919
Speaker 4: Listen, how are you gonna let me answer it? You're

12
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,240
Speaker 4: just gonna do it. I'm just gonna Bobby Larry Bird.

13
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 4: You probably lived in Southee and you stole cars and

14
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:48,839
Speaker 4: you were good at math, and you said, how do

15
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,480
Speaker 4: you like them apples? Huh?

16
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: Listen, movie.

17
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 4: I already already was judging you because you were from Kansas,

18
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 4: but the fact that you're from California. You know what's

19
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:05,319
Speaker 4: funny about Ropeblublicans is they love TV people. They will

20
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 4: fucking because I was just thinking, like the other day,

21
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 4: it's like they keep electing the host of a reality

22
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 4: show TV star, right, they like the host of the Apprentice,

23
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 4: they like Schwarzeneger movies, Reagan No, and then watching like Trump,

24
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 4: I don't know what he's doing. He's like talking about

25
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 4: national security with doctor Phil. Have you seen his ratings?

26
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 1: Now?

27
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 4: It's like Trump, this is a little more fucking important.

28
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 4: And then he replaced a warmonger with dementia. The joke

29
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 4: I've been doing my actors the last three president's elections.

30
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:43,960
Speaker 4: We're picking presidents the way the Browns pick quarterbacks. We got,

31
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 4: We're in this vortex, we got, we gotta get out

32
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 4: of it. And then fortunately somebody comes along and whacks

33
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 4: the CEO and gives us a chance to breathe a little.

34
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: So who's the Baker?

35
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 4: Like, what are we doing?

36
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 1: Huh?

37
00:01:55,960 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 2: Who's the Baker Mayfield of presidents? In that Baker may too?

38
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying.

39
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 4: You know what, I love that, love that Colin Cowhard

40
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 4: has to stay up at night knowing he was wrong

41
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 4: and can't get himself to admit it, and his desk

42
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 4: is just going to keep getting bigger. I still have

43
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:14,640
Speaker 4: to go to a physical therapist looking up at him

44
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 4: during those interviews I did on his show, Oh my god,

45
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 4: look at that? Would you look at that? Ty debtmur?

46
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 4: I can't even.

47
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 2: Oh my god, Charlie Fry isn't win from the Brady draft, Yes, spurgeon.

48
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 4: Brady Quinn Jake, not the loan from uh the Panthers.

49
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 4: They got rid of him. He was a fucking baller.

50
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,800
Speaker 4: He almost beat us. Uh was not afraid of the

51
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 4: Super Bowl, even remore Colt McCoy. Dude, they they should,

52
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 4: they should get all of these guys together and sit

53
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 4: around the biggest round table you could ever get, like

54
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 4: a forty seven person round table, and it's just called

55
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,920
Speaker 4: I was drafted number one by the Browns, and you

56
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 4: and you talk about all the success you had at

57
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 4: all levels leading up to that, and then he went

58
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 4: to the Browns and nobody blocked. And now for the

59
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 4: rest of your life, you go into a Dick Sporting

60
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 4: Good and some mantated fat fuck gets to say you sucked,

61
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 4: like that's that's what you're signing up for.

62
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 2: Baker Bak won a playoff game for them.

63
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 4: Okay, so what what is my fascination was? It wasn't

64
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 4: always we were in the hierarchy of Boston, but oh okay,

65
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 4: all right, Bill Russell, Uh wait a second, stop throwing

76
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 2: So Ernie came in here and talked for three hours,

77
00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 2: and by the end he was like this sleeping.

78
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: All right.

79
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 4: Well, there's two different lists. There's the people that I

80
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 4: liked and then the best ever. Okay, some of them

81
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 4: are on the same list, so like the best ever.

82
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 4: You gotta go, Bird, I mean Bill Russell, Bird, I'm

83
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 4: going like Celtics right now. And that's it. I'm kidding.

84
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 4: I'm too old to remember anybody past the fucking nineties.

85
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 4: Then he got it, Bobby orr who even warning Gretzky's

86
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 4: I said, that's the greatest of all time. Cam Neely,

87
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 4: cam Neely, you want fifty goals? And I beat the

88
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 4: fuck out of your team, you know that guy? And

89
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 4: he owned the Canadians when we couldn't beat the Canadians,

90
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 4: and we were all, oh my, oh, we'll go in

91
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:38,720
Speaker 4: to the form. I'm gonna lose. He would get a hat

92
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 4: trick on Patrick Waugh, who changed the game for We

93
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 4: move on, Kennelely.

94
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 1: Do you have a take on Olf Samuelson?

95
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 4: Do I have a take on him? Uh? My only

96
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 4: take on that guy is that whenever I hear Pittsburgh

97
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 4: fans whining about what they did to Sidney Crosby in

98
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 4: his career, it's like, you have Alf Samuelson in your

99
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,480
Speaker 4: ring of honor. So I mean, I don't I mean,

100
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,480
Speaker 4: live by this sword, die by this. They also had

101
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 4: Matt Cook. I mean, they just they like guys like

102
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 4: that unless they're coming at them. So, you know, I

103
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 4: don't know, you know, whatever Alf did, he had, he

104
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,719
Speaker 4: had like a long career, But I mean, I just

105
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 4: don't I don't think like going at somebody's knees. I

106
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 4: don't think that, you know. Okay, So then what did

107
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 4: what did that do for hockey? That took cam Neely away?

108
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,359
Speaker 4: And then you're left with Alf Samuelson. So like, I

109
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 4: don't mind guys that played physical and that type of thing.

110
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,680
Speaker 4: You know, these guys that were on the line, like

111
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,720
Speaker 4: Claude Claudelein Meeux, all right, that guy did a lot

112
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 4: of dirty ship. But he could also he could play

113
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,919
Speaker 4: the game. So it's you know, I don't know, you

114
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 4: know what, fuck you for bringing his name up all

115
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 4: the fucking championships.

116
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:49,920
Speaker 1: And shit, it's fucking sky.

117
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, but western Massachusetts, that's that's not even America. Forget

118
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 4: about Massachusetts. That's just like people who can't find the

119
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 4: Appalachian Trail. Look at his beard. Do you think he

120
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 4: has running water in his house?

121
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:02,479
Speaker 2: No?

122
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 4: I don't either. And then as far as Patriots, I

123
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 4: mean John Hannah, Andre Tippetti, you gotta go. Steve Grogan

124
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 4: one of one of the great toughest fucking guys.

125
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: Grogan, dude.

126
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 4: Grogan played the last five years of his career wearing

127
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,479
Speaker 4: a neck brace. He looked like he just got to

128
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,840
Speaker 4: a car accident. And he played on AstroTurf and he

129
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 4: would hold that fucking ball until the like the camera

130
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 4: would always go at the ball. He would just see

131
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 4: him fly out of frame as the ball went like

132
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,160
Speaker 4: that way, and he would just get up. The guy

133
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,280
Speaker 4: just would get up. Yeah, he was Oh my god,

134
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 4: that naked bootleg on Monday night football.

135
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 1: Fifty yardists didn't see it.

136
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 4: Fucking white guy giving us all hope. We could run.

137
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 4: I could make it. Stanley Morgan, there it is.

138
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: He wore that.

139
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,599
Speaker 4: First of all, he had the same genetics as as

140
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,160
Speaker 4: Peyton Manning, where they just had extra neck, you know

141
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 4: what I mean, like usually the helmet fits the thing.

142
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 4: I don't know what, I don't know what, you know.

143
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 4: I don't think Peyton's that brighter guy. So he's always

144
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 4: cheating on people, you know the papers. I think that

145
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 4: that's why it happened. I'm just fucking with I love Peyton,

146
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 4: but the fucking guy. I did his show and all

147
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 4: he did was like he was like, remember when ELI

148
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 4: did this. It's like, yeah, I do, I don't remember

149
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 4: when you did it. Yeah, he always does that. Oh

150
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 4: my god. The cheating ass Colts. The fucking cheating ass Colts.

151
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 4: Brilliant dude.

152
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 2: You know what, I didn't realize how much I hated

153
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 2: the Colts until I started doing a podcast with Gronk

154
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 2: and seeing how much he hated the Colts.

155
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 4: You really hate the biggest whining bitches that ever. Fucking

156
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 4: it's AFC Championship banner runner up.

157
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 2: That's what they have. They have an AFC runner up.

158
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 4: How about how about the fact their owners sat on

159
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 4: the Competition Committee and made the way we were covering

160
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 4: their receivers illegal. And then they stole our offense and

161
00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 4: won a fucking Super Bowl and they didn't say anything,

162
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 4: which I don't give a fuck. It's a dirty game.

163
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 4: But don't go around weighing a football. I mean, what

164
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:07,239
Speaker 4: the fuck?

165
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 2: Same amount of their footballs were underinflated, underinflated, and he

166
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,240
Speaker 2: hired this guy who said he was a scientist who wasn't.

167
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 4: How about the fact.

168
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 2: That I still can't stand him right now.

169
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 4: How about the fact that the owner of a losing

170
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 4: team was allowed to conduct an independent investigation that was

171
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 4: upheld by the NFL. Roger Goodell, that appetizer eating fucking

172
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,079
Speaker 4: Fred Frindstone looking sack Roge. Okay, I get it. You

173
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 4: gotta protect your connections. I'm not a fan. And the

174
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 4: first thing Roger Goodell needs to do is buy a

175
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 4: suit that fucking fits all right. He always looks like

176
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 4: he just ate a bunch of potato skins. That big

177
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 4: dub Fred Flintstone had he he should have been like,

178
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 4: you're not conducting an independent investigation?

179
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 1: I do that.

180
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 4: You're not gonna be the fuck are you? And he

181
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 4: went like, oh yeah, this looks pretty good. Like, what

182
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:56,400
Speaker 4: the fuck?

183
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,680
Speaker 1: What was that quick question?

184
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 2: Why do all comedians drink drink the liquid death?

185
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,079
Speaker 4: Well, I initially got into this ship because because it's

186
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 4: it's rather than being a plastic bottle.

187
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 1: And I know you're so green friendly.

188
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 4: You've just you ask questions and then you fucking interrupt.

189
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 4: I've never even got to my list.

190
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 1: Well, I just don't got random.

191
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 2: I'm random ado, Okay, so high art.

192
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,319
Speaker 4: He's wearing women's shoes and now he's explaining away his

193
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 4: behavior with diagnosis. Are you self diagnosed.

194
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 1: As add or don't know?

195
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,520

00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 4: a d d well childhood trauma. No, Well that if

197
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,760

198
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 4: thought about what a dick your dad was, that's why

199
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:46,400

Speaker 4: My my dad was a fucking loom. I don't know

202
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 4: what happened to him with old pipe smoker. By the

203
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,840
Speaker 4: time I met him, he was fucking ninety. I don't

204
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 4: know what he did when he's still when he's still

205
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 4: his last couple of years in the league, when he

206
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 4: was forty, I don't know what he did to my dad.

207
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 4: But you know, we all paid for it. So like,

208
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 4: I literally cannot fucking sit still in my own house.

209
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 4: I have to be doing I'm playing a guitar, I'm

212
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 1: I'm right there with you.

213
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I was a little bit or like third grade.

214
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 2: The principal brought my parents into the the office and said, yeah,

215
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 2: we recommend your your son needs riddling. My dad almost

216
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 2: fought him.

217
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 1: That's a good dad, He goes, you.

220
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 4: so they just started drugging class clowns. And that's the

221
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 4: story that they don't want you to know.

222
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 1: So Russell Bird, you.

00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 4: lye your ass off on your webroag grog.

225
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 2: John Hannah, John Hannah, No, Mike Haynes, No, Brady.

226
00:10:56,280 --> 00:11:00,359
Speaker 4: Mike Haynes. Well, I'm still in pat Patriot.

227
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 2: I mean, how many fucking people are on the hierarchy

228
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 2: Usually I'm mount rough it to you.

229
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,439
Speaker 1: Yet, No, I didn't want to be on.

230
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 4: There I'm gonna give you at the end of this podcast.

231
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 4: I'm gonna give you the hug your dad never gave you.

232
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 2: I see him looking at me right now and really

233
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,839
Speaker 2: thinking about like, Yeah, this kid's he needs a hug.

234
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:23,840
Speaker 1: No, he needs a hug.

235
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 4: Or maybe I'm just projecting. Maybe I'm hoping that I

236
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,080
Speaker 4: could get a hug from the hands that caught that

237
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 4: ball right off the turf. Maybe that could have Maybe

238
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 4: you could hold me gently rock me before I go

239
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:43,599
Speaker 4: to my next dancing monkey gig that I have to do.

240
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 2: You do you do do a lot of these dancing

241
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 2: monkey gigs?

242
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 1: Because I do?

243
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 4: And this is probably the bottom of the list.

244
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:54,439
Speaker 2: Clearly not because three weeks ago Bill Burr actually showed

245
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 2: up to the fucking house.

246
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,559
Speaker 4: I have him on my goddamn I clicked on the

247
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 4: wrong address and I fucking to the house and they

248
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,079
Speaker 4: were like, you're not here for like another three weeks,

249
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:05,439
Speaker 4: and I was like, what the fuck? I mean? That

250
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 4: is my day every fucking day, Like I just wake up,

251
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 4: and you know, I got to start moving forward to

252
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,320
Speaker 4: get the demons behind me. It's like called the smoke.

253
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 4: I got to stay ahead of the smoke. So I

254
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 4: clicked on the wrong day and I ended up out

255
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,599
Speaker 4: here how far away was supposed to be on this

256
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 4: side of the you know, oh over there. You know,

257
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 4: it was what it was. And then I got there

258
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,959
Speaker 4: and it didn't matter, you know what I mean. I

259
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 4: was like all stressed out. They're like, no, it's fine,

260
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 4: it's fine. It's like so one of these times just arbitrary,

261
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 4: like you know, ten o'clock whenever you want to get here, Like,

262
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:39,920

00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:39,080
Speaker 1: What about your sports?

282
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,319
Speaker 2: How did Tom Brady? How does your fandom in sports go?

283
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 1: Does it?

284
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,319
Speaker 4: And then I can only pick one white wide receiver,

285
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 4: so I'll go with Wes Welker standard standard, I mean, no, you, Yeah,

286
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 4: Julian Edelman, You're on the list, buddy. Thanks, I didn't

287
00:13:59,360 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 4: forget about you.

288
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 3: Next, Keegan Michael Key on the game that changed everything

289
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:06,960
Speaker 3: for the Detroit Lions.

290
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,080
Speaker 2: Now, he's just the greatest game of all time.

291
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 5: I will say this, I think this may be the

292
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 5: greatest game of all time for the Detroit Lions franchise.

293
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 5: I think this is bigger than when Barry Sanders like

294
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 5: just went out of his mind against Dallas in ninety

295
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 5: one ninety two. Yeah, and that game was huge. But

296
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 5: the nineties is somehow, I mean, it's just math, right.

297
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 5: The nineties is certainly closer to the fifties than the

298
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 5: aughts are to the fifties or the twenties art of

299
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 5: the fifties, so that thirty that gap, that over thirty

300
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 5: year gap is huge. And the fact that if you

301
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 5: were a young when I was a young kid, we

302
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 5: still hung our hats on. Well, we won the nineteen

303
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 5: fifty seven championship, you know what I mean. But you

304
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 5: can't do that in the twenties, not in this news.

305
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 5: It was just too long of a drought and too

306
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 5: significant of a drought there. This was so harrowing. I

307
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 5: thought to myself, Okay, after the previous season, after beating

308
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 5: Green Bay first of all, winning a divisional game in

309
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 5: Lambeau against Aaron Rodgers ending on a pick, it was

310
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 5: it was the hope was so high. Could you could

311
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,040
Speaker 5: taste it? And then I was deflated when I saw

312
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 5: the schedule come out and go, what it's us? We've

313
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 5: got to.

314
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 2: Play Casey in Arrowhead.

315
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, And I thought to myself, maybe I afforded myself

316
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 5: just a small hint of hope. I mean, I believe

317
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 5: in Dan, I believe in Brad Holmes, our general manager.

318
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 5: I think we can win this game. The fact that

319
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 5: they came out with the victory, I think this is

320
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 5: such a market change in the culture of Detroit football.

321
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 5: Those games that we would lose, those games that when

322
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 5: we get into overtime, they're going, Oh, they're just gonna

323
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 5: march down the field and get a field goal and

324
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 5: win those games where you're like, all we need to

325
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 5: do is stop them here, you know. Yeah, Detroit's big

326
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 5: one of our big signature things was always it's like

327
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 5: two thirty two in the fourth quarter, You're like, oh,

328
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 5: God is gonna get whatever first down they need, and

329
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 5: the team would always get the first time form an offense,

330
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 5: and we'd always collapse and they would just seal the deal.

331
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 5: And this game, this game is going to be one

332
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 5: of the most important games, if not the most important

333
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 5: game in the annals of Detroit Lions football history because

334
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 5: of seeing this blueprint in action, seeing the culture literally change.

335
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 5: He needed this win.

336
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: I can see that.

337
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 2: I don't think you're crazy for saying that, Like that

338
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 2: is going out and beating the defending Super Bowl champs

339
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 2: after playing your best football at the end of this

340
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 2: at the end of the year, yep, after a rough,

341
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 2: rough start, you know, the end of the year, they

342
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 2: were playing really good ball, really good ball. To go

343
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 2: out and then we'll get it. We'll dive into the game.

344
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 2: But to to to go out and beat the defending

345
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 2: champs on a platform where everyone is watching. That gives

346
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 2: your team confidence and to do it that's like a

347
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 2: that's like a switch that, like, guys, we believe actually

348
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 2: what we're preaching here now, that's that's a confirmation on

349
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 2: everything that the coaches were saying from that point on

350
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 2: after the season, you know, after the great the ending

351
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,440
Speaker 2: of their season, that right there, everything that they were

352
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 2: you know, preaching, to have that come out and start

353
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 2: the season the way they did that was that's that.

354
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think you're crazy for saying that.

355
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 5: No, I I appreciate it, says it says so much

356
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 5: about the direction that the team was going in. And

357
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,679
Speaker 5: and I remember, I mean I was jazzed when we

358
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 5: were on hard Knocks and I thought that HBO made

359
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,160
Speaker 5: a really good choice that that was the right time

360
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,160
Speaker 5: to do it. We were the right time to pick.

361
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 5: It's like pick a team when it looks like there's

362
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 5: going to be a significant culture change. And I want

363
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,199
Speaker 5: to give a lot of credit to Sheila hamp to

364
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 5: Sheila Ford Hamp who's our who's our team owner, who

365
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 5: and and also to missus Ford, who is our team

366
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 5: owner emeritus. You know Sheila. I thought Sheila took a

367
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,640
Speaker 5: very big swing, a very courageous big and I thought

368
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 5: it was a shrewd and a smart swing. When she

369
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 5: got Matt Patricia, I could see that in her mind,

370
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 5: She's going, let's go somebody with somebody who's been in

371
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 5: a culture, in a winning culture for a long a

372
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,639
Speaker 5: person you know very well who's been in a culture

373
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,439
Speaker 5: for a very long time. I think he might be

374
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 5: able to make the shift. She made the right The

375
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 5: thinking was right, The thinking was right, So I thought

376
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,640
Speaker 5: I was really I started feeling hopeful when Sheila kind

377
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 5: of took over the reins for her mom. Martha is

378
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,439
Speaker 5: a passionate football person. She loves her team, she loves

379
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 5: the staff. I think it was right for her to

380
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:39,439
Speaker 5: kind of go, I'm going to give the reins over

381
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 5: to my daughter. I think she's got good ideas. I

382
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,440
Speaker 5: think she's moving in the right direction. So I have

383
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 5: to give her kudos for that. Matt Patricia higher and

384
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 5: then you know, I think that Dan, unless you're in

385
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 5: the league or a real huge sports maven, Dan was

386
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 5: not a completely unproven quantity Because I thought he did

387
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 5: really good stuff in Miami, and but he he he

388
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,439
Speaker 5: again was the right choice. She just went swinging for

389
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:07,919
Speaker 5: the fences.

390
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 1: Again. The shrewd choice was Brad Holmes. It was so funny.

391
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 5: I go, oh, I think this guy might be the

392
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,679
Speaker 5: this might be the piece. So somebody who's whose career

393
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 5: was has been spent scouting scouting, scouting scouting, and for

394
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,159
Speaker 5: him to say we're gonna build this team through the draft,

395
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 5: it's just balls. It takes balls. We're not gonna spend

396
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:32,919
Speaker 5: a ton of money. We're gonna be the word is shrewd.

397
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 5: We're gonna be shrewd, and we're going to make make

398
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:40,440
Speaker 5: informed choices to build a future for this team. That's

399
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 5: another thing I love about our team is that we're

400
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 5: building a team that could be good for a decade.

401
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 5: It's not let's go try to win a super Bowl

402
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 5: in one year. Let's spend all their money, bankrupt ourselves,

403
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:53,879
Speaker 5: go for what if you don't win? What if you

404
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,440
Speaker 5: don't get the stan Kronky, What if you don't get

405
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 5: the Stafford effect and you don't win the Super Bowl?

406
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 5: And then and then happens? Then what happened?

407
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 2: So I just shout out to Shila hamp Yeah, they've

408
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:05,880
Speaker 2: definitely gone foundational.

409
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 5: Foundational.

410
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 2: This is absolutely and that starts from the leader. And

411
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,159
Speaker 2: you know, I'll get into more of the lines and

412
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 2: where I believe in them, We'll get in there. But

413
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 2: you know, mcdc is a great fit for that city.

414
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,439
Speaker 2: I mean the toughness and you know, to show what

415
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 2: he's shown, everyone kind of thought he was just a

416
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:26,640
Speaker 2: big old meathead.

417
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 1: But you know the guy, the guy knows football.

418
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,439
Speaker 5: They didn't know and he knows football. They didn't know

419
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 5: what he meant. I don't think they knew what he

420
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 5: meant when he said grit, because when he says grit,

421
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 5: I think part of grit is also mental fortitude, not.

422
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:45,400
Speaker 2: Just testicular fortitude.

423
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 5: But mental cerebral fortitude. It's both. It's like you said,

424
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 5: people thought he was a meathead and he's you know,

425
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 5: he got the passion, got the best of them. And

426
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 5: he said the kneecaps thing and blah blah blah blah blah.

427
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,360
Speaker 5: It's the mental fortitude. On hard knocks. He did that

428
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,360
Speaker 5: thing where he shook out the means, the dust out

429
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 5: of the close and say we've got to get this off.

430
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 5: We're not that team. But just because you're here in

431
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 5: Allen Park, Michigan, in this training facility, let it. You

432
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 5: gotta let all that go at the door.

433
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 1: We're not.

434
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 5: We're different. It's it's been amazing.

435
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 1: To watch it is that.

436
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,880
Speaker 5: It's that that the culture and the philosophy's actually work.

437
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 3: Now we got Stavros Halki is giving us his Mount

438
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,440
Speaker 3: Rushmore of Baltimore athletes.

439
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 1: We got to have the Mount Rushmore.

440
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 2: Okay of Baltimore athletes.

441
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 1: Oh I love it.

442
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I mean.

443
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 1: Or from Baltimore, from Baltimore. We could do.

444
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 6: We can do a cultural. We could do a cultural.

445
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,280
Speaker 6: We could do a culture, and we could do an athlete.

446
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 6: I mean, if you're talking athletes, obviously Cow's got to

447
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 6: be on there. It really comes down to, uh, I

448
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 6: think Cow's gotta be on there. Ray Lewis and Ed

449
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,120
Speaker 6: Reid and then.

450
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 2: I mean, what do you what's telling you in your head?

451
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:00,240
Speaker 1: Right now?

452
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:02,359
Speaker 2: I just I see it.

453
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 1: It's just hard my answer. Don't say it? Are you

454
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:07,080
Speaker 1: gonna say it?

455
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 5: I don't. I don't think I can.

456
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 1: Is there something about him?

457
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 4: There is something about him?

458
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 6: Right, I'm not gonna say there's not something about him.

459
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:15,120
Speaker 4: It's a split.

460
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 6: I know that's a fucking completely, uh complete cowards way out,

461
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,680
Speaker 6: but it is. It's the quarterback slot and it's for

462
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 6: it's it's a split right now, Lamar and Flacco. But

463
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:29,240
Speaker 6: Lamar is so fucking like obviously this is a joke

464
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 6: character and I love Flacco and he is you know,

465
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,159
Speaker 6: he's the fucking man super Bowl MVP. It's insane, one

466
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:37,159
Speaker 6: of my favorite athletes. But Lamar is just like, you know,

467
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 6: I just think he does get shipped on a little

468
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,640
Speaker 6: too much. And obviously there's people who love him. I'm

469
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 6: not gonna say that he just has detractors. But he's

470
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,200
Speaker 6: so fucking good. He's so electric. It's I think it's

471
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 6: got to be Lamar man.

472
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,440
Speaker 2: All right, all your thoughts on the resurgence of Joe

473
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 2: Flacco in Cleveland last year or two years ago.

474
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean it's hard for me not to root

475
00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 6: for Like, at the end of the day, I was

476
00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 6: not scared of that team, and it's like part of me.

477
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 4: I mean, wait, did he sorry, did he actually stime

478
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:06,639
Speaker 4: with the steels or is.

479
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 1: That a rumor? No? No, I don't crush it and

480
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:09,440
Speaker 1: sign good right.

481
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 4: No, No, I saw a rumor that he might anyway, so.

482
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 1: That would have been brutal Joe Flacco.

483
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:17,439
Speaker 4: I mean this run honestly.

484
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 6: That's also another reason I picked this game is that,

485
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 6: like I think, what is it is that, Like, yeah,

486
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 6: he had a legendary run, and I think he's fucking

487
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 6: really good and to be able to do this, you

488
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,160
Speaker 6: have to be one of the best. Like, it's crazy

489
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 6: the amount of people that go on a who have

490
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 6: their best football during the during a super Bowl run

491
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 6: is it's the best thing of all time. But I

492
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 6: think I think there's something about him. He feels relatable.

493
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 6: He's a mid Atlantic guy. He's like he seems like

494
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:47,959
Speaker 6: a guy you might have grown up with. It's, you know,

495
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,400
Speaker 6: from kind of I think he's like from the Philly bourbs.

496
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 6: He went to Delaware, went to fucking Delaware, he started,

497
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,960
Speaker 6: he played, and he played in Baltimore. It's like he's

498
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 6: got that I know, even though he's not from Baltimore.

499
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 6: He feels like a guy on Baltimore. It was never complicated.

500
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 6: The motherfucker just threw and he threw a beautiful deep.

501
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,679
Speaker 2: Ball and he was faster than what people. Yeah, he

502
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 2: was we used to ever Bill he's talking about Flanco, like,

503
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 2: don't let this motherfucker out the pocket now. I'm just

504
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:19,520
Speaker 2: telling you when he gets going to bring down. Yeah,

505
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:22,400
Speaker 2: he's a big fucking guy. He's a big guy.

506
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,879
Speaker 6: He's huge, and and I think there was just something

507
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,719
Speaker 6: awesome about him where it was like you just again he.

508
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 6: I also think there's a relatability in some ways, even

509
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 6: though again world class quarterback. You shouldn't relate to him,

510
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 6: you have nothing. The average fucking idiot on his couch

511
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 6: has nothing in common with Joe Flacco. But at the

512
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 6: end of the day, it's like he is from He

513
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 6: is from Delaware, like he he is a guy from

514
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 6: around where we're from. And he nobody really believed in

515
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 6: him at any point this he he put his money

516
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 6: and I think for me anyway and for other people,

517
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 6: he could watch that and get inspired and be like,

518
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:58,199
Speaker 6: I just need to fucking get it together when it

519
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 6: fucking matters, and like I could be a fucking legend forever.

520
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,520
Speaker 4: And Joe had We had great years and I loved

521
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:05,120
Speaker 4: rooting for him.

522
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 6: But I think it was like the combination of getting

523
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:08,639
Speaker 6: you a Super Bowl and just like how relatable and

524
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 6: how much like like people will ask him now in

525
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 6: interviews like oh do you, and they'll kind of try

526
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 6: and get him to like talk about how good the

527
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 6: Ravens are, but he's still like, I'm playing, motherfucker, I'm

528
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 6: still in the league if I want the Ravens, and

529
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 6: I like that attitude. It's like he's not he doesn't

530
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,359
Speaker 6: see it as like this like retirement tour. He sees like,

531
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 6: I still got I'm doing this fucking sign me and

532
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 6: I fucking love that dude, even though he might here's

533
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,399
Speaker 6: the other thing, he might be wrong, right, but you

534
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 6: need that a belief if no one's if you have

535
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 6: to believe yourself more than anyone else to be successful

536
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 6: with these hard things. And he was like for for

537
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 6: like him yanness like it is sports guys can absolutely

538
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 6: inspire you in your life for that, And I take

539
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,840
Speaker 6: a lot of that from Flacco and and you know,

540
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,679
Speaker 6: obviously Jiannis for how hard Giannis is like work ethic

541
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:57,119
Speaker 6: turn it.

542
00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 4: Coming from nothing to being one of the best.

543
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 6: And it's just sort of that kind of underdog story

544
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,680
Speaker 6: and the fact that it ends with the super Bowl

545
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:06,800
Speaker 6: and not super Bowl at a super Bowl that has

546
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 6: ray Lewis retires. Ed Reid got one with us, because

547
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 6: you know, Red is my favorite Raven, even though Ray

548
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,679
Speaker 6: obviously is a legend. But there's just he was just

549
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 6: so fucking cool and he was just so so incredibly

550
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 6: good and it was just such a special like that

551
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 6: kind of super Bowl keeps you going.

552
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,119
Speaker 4: Now, did I want us to win this year? Absolutely?

553
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 4: I love Lamar.

554
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 6: He's gaining on Reid for me because he's just incredible

555
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,320
Speaker 6: to watch and he's so fucking good. And I would

556
00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 6: have loved there was like the numerology every twelve years.

557
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 6: The quarterback's twenty eight years old. I thought for sure

558
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,239
Speaker 6: we were winning because of that dumb bullshit. And then

559
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:45,919
Speaker 6: it would have been if we'd gotten that one, I

560
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 6: literally wouldn't have needed another super Bowl for the rest

561
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 6: of my life, you know what I mean, Three at

562
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 6: really pivotal points in my life would have been great.

563
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:53,920
Speaker 4: But we'll get him this year.

564
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 2: So Ed Reid, let's we'll jump into this Baltimore team. Yes,

565
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 2: good segue is ed Reid. I remember Edward's last year?

566
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 2: He lit me up in Baltimore. Yeah, do you remember that.

567
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 2: I don't know if you remember that. We ended up losing.

568
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 2: It was two thousand and it was this year it

569
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:13,919
Speaker 2: was the game that I played in. Edreid came and

570
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 2: he lit me up on a on a post them

571
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 2: and he just was so swaggy about it, like got

572
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:21,880
Speaker 2: a like he was just.

573
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:23,359
Speaker 1: A competitor, so cool.

574
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 2: Bill used to literally show like a forty play cut

575
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 2: up of Edrid every time we played him, and we're like, Bill,

576
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,639
Speaker 2: we saw this six weeks ago, and he's like, he

577
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 2: just show another cut up like Ed Reid this fuck

578
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:36,160
Speaker 2: he lost the one.

579
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 6: That's the one vent diagram for me and Bill Belichick

580
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,239
Speaker 6: is our admiration for Ed Reid is how much we

581
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,600
Speaker 6: how much we respect him because I've seen him talk

582
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,760
Speaker 6: about that and that's fucking cool. Yeah, and he'll show

583
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:48,199
Speaker 6: those where it's like how smart he was to like

584
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:51,400
Speaker 6: he was playing mine games with Peyton Manning. Yeah, it's insane.

585
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 6: And not only that, but he'll return kicks. He'll lateral

586
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,359
Speaker 6: like those block kicks, So yeah, he's up and under.

587
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 6: We used to show all our special teams his up

588
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:05,440
Speaker 6: and under move on blocking kicks because he was that legendary.

589
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 6: So Ed Reid's one of your favorite guys from this

590
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 6: team for sure, Ray Lewis, you love him. Movie Joe

591
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 6: Flaws and Ogden. Ogden gets forgotten in the like Ray

592
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 6: because ray lowis obviously good, you know, but like it

593
00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:21,359
Speaker 6: doesn't happen with that Ogden. They draft those guys the

594
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:23,640
Speaker 6: same year that was our the you know, and and

595
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,640
Speaker 6: like that's those are the cornerstones of our franchise. And

596
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:29,160
Speaker 6: he's in many ways, I feel like Ogden is what

597
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 6: the perfect left tackle became.

598
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:32,720
Speaker 1: You know.

599
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,119
Speaker 6: It's like that he got drafted a long time agoing

600
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 6: now it was just like he was so good it's insane.

601
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 1: He was.

602
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 6: He was kind of like Tim Duncan where it's like

603
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 6: it's kind of boring, gets forgotten. But I don't think

604
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 6: those teams. I don't think we win that first super

605
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 6: Bowl with without him for sure. And it's like he

606
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 6: he does get a little I want to give him

607
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 6: his credit because he to me, it's him. I think

608
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 6: of him and Ray Lewis as are the initial stars

609
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 6: that got us off the ground together. And I feel

610
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 6: like he gets forgotten too much offensive lineman. That's gonna happen,

611
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 6: but it happens. And also his personality is just like

612
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 6: a kind of a chill guy. He's not you know

613
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:10,920
Speaker 6: that he's not doing the sick dances that everybody sees.

614
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,239
Speaker 2: Linemen are in their own world for sure. They you

615
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 2: kind of have to be, you're getting, but they're the reason. Yeah,

616
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 2: I mean it's it's the trenches. I mean, you you

617
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,400
Speaker 2: listen to all the game, it starts in the trenches.

618
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 2: It's true.

619
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 3: Next ice Cube talks about Tom Brady and the twenty

620
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:27,240
Speaker 3: twenty five Las Vegas Raiders.

621
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 2: I'm always excited for the Raiders you met with as

622
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:32,680

Speaker 7: Jeane Smith Junie quarterback. I think he's a winner too.

644
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:41,920

645
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 7: he uh, he ready to get it off.

646

677
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 7: As I mean, Tom, I don't know how much he

678
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 7: really can do, you know, but but add a lot

679
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 7: of suggestions to the suggestion box.

680
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

681
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 7: Like being an owner and a minority owner in sports

682
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:45,240
Speaker 7: is it's kind of like just being a cheer leading

683
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,720
Speaker 7: a Super ticket season holder, you know.

684
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 1: It is.

685
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 7: It's like a super season ticket holder. You know, you

686
00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 7: get invited to a few things, but I don't know

687
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 7: how much they listen to you.

688
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:06,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're gonna find out. Yeah, we'll see a lot

689
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 2: of it depends on whoever the governing governing person.

690
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 7: Well, Mark, you know one thing, I like Mark Davis,

691
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:24,360
Speaker 7: and you know he's he's a good dude. He'll listen

692
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 7: to smart people. You know, he's not one of those

693
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 7: hard those dudes who was not looking to you know,

694
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 7: get smarter, get better, figure out, you know, who's who's

695
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 7: the best at what they do, and let him do

696
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 7: what they do without over interfering.

697
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 1: Sometimes you gotta let people cook.

698
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:51,800
Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, his pops was accused of too much

699
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,360
Speaker 7: being in the sauce, a little too much. I think

700
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 7: he you take a slightly different approach. He how to

701
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:02,680
Speaker 7: write people and let them do their thing. And you

702
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,800
Speaker 7: know they either swim, must sink or swim, you know

703
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:06,920
Speaker 7: what I mean, on their own.

704
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:11,800
Speaker 2: You gotta you know, it's tough, you know, patience is huge.

705
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 2: That's a tough position to be in. Because the holy

706
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:18,879
Speaker 2: trinity in football is the owner, gm head coach. That's

707
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 2: the trinity. Yeah, and you actually it's the quarterback too,

708
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,640
Speaker 2: It's the holy qutuity whatever that.

709
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,680
Speaker 1: Shit is, you know what I mean.

710
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 2: So you got to have all those, you know, but

711
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,719
Speaker 2: you gotta be patient enough to let it marinate. You

712
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,640
Speaker 2: gotta gotta let them meet marinate. You can't just you know,

713
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,320
Speaker 2: you put put it on real You gotta let that

714
00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:41,280
Speaker 2: thing sit for twenty four hours in the fridge forty years.

715
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 7: You know, games are long and you can't panic. You know,

716
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 7: you can like you can't win a game in the

717
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:54,520
Speaker 7: first quarter, but you can lose a game in the

718
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:55,320
Speaker 7: first quarter.

719
00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:57,839
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. You could do some stupid ship.

720
00:34:58,520 --> 00:34:59,359
Speaker 1: So that's real.

721
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:03,440
Speaker 7: Sometimes you just gotta let the guys play. And to me,

722
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:11,759
Speaker 7: it's really like owner cool GM whatever head coach do

723
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 7: the guys. Are the guys playing their ass off for

724
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:21,319
Speaker 7: this coach and if they are, you know, you gotta

725
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:24,320
Speaker 7: kind of let it roll. They're not playing their ass

726
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,680
Speaker 7: off for this coach, then it's something you need to do.

727
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that sometimes you don't have the right players

728
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:35,359
Speaker 2: for that coach. That's me. That's the thing. You know,

729
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 2: Like the GM brings in these guys that don't acclimate

730
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 2: to the system that they're trying to put them in.

731
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:43,280
Speaker 2: That's why it's a holy quatrinity whatever the c whatever.

732
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 2: That's why in the Big Three we don't have a gym. See,

733
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 2: that's why you don't have GM.

734
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,680
Speaker 7: We have a player captain and he gets to pick

735
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:55,040
Speaker 7: two co captains who he's gonna play with, and then

736
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 7: they draft two other players, So we.

737
00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 1: Don't have that pea.

738
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,520
Speaker 7: He already the chemistry is gonna be there. He's not

739
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,359
Speaker 7: gonna pick a guy he don't think he can win

740
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:09,400
Speaker 7: with that. He don't get along with that, he won't

741
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 7: go to war with I get it. So I think

742
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:16,920
Speaker 7: that that the other sports leagues need to try to

743
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 7: learn a little from that, because yeah, GM can put

744
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,520
Speaker 7: together a bunch of bullshit, you know what I mean,

745
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 7: like and and that you can't really who's on the

746
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,560
Speaker 7: field or they're not working together.

747
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 2: And then but it's one of those things where then

748
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 2: you got the owner, and then you got the head

749
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:37,759
Speaker 2: coach and the GM. The head coach has a meeting

750
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:39,640
Speaker 2: with the owner says, I don't got the fucking players, man,

751
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 2: I don't tell you. Then the GM comes and says, man,

752
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 2: we got the best players in the fucking league, but

753
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,239
Speaker 2: we don't have a goddamn coach. And so it's up

754
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:48,160
Speaker 2: to a guy that has to make the decision that's

755
00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 2: not really a football guy. You know, usually in most scenarios,

756
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 2: someone that's around the game. You guys were blessed to

757
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:59,279
Speaker 2: have Al Davis, who was a fucking coach, GM commissioner

758
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 2: everything for the league, so he knew football.

759
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:02,880
Speaker 1: He could make those decisions.

760
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:04,799
Speaker 2: But a lot of the time these people don't have

761
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,800
Speaker 2: that ability to know what they're even doing.

762
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,880
Speaker 7: A smarter owner, to me would know what he don't know.

763
00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,400
Speaker 7: And we have a football guy there you go handle

764
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:15,879
Speaker 7: that shit.

765
00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:16,640
Speaker 1: There you go.

766
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:19,560
Speaker 7: I don't even hear about it, Like, go talk to

767
00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:22,480
Speaker 7: my football guy. I'm just gonna go sit in the

768
00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:25,520
Speaker 7: stands with my goddamn family man, take pictures.

769
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,080
