Here you got me, Sarah Spain Stu Gatts, 3 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,159 Speaker 1: the Around the Horn legend Taylor who probably watched a 4 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:14,960 Speaker 1: little bit he was growing up. 5 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:16,720 Speaker 2: How are you, Sarah, So good to see you. 6 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:18,280 Speaker 3: I'm good. Thanks. 7 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 4: I'm obsessed with the family signed behind Stew's head that 8 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,160 Speaker 4: I'm seeing in this shot. It really makes me wonder 9 00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:27,400 Speaker 4: what the rest of the Stu family decor is because 10 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 4: he wouldn't strike me as a live, laugh, love person, 11 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,040 Speaker 4: but it feels like maybe whoever's in charge of decorating 12 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:34,200 Speaker 4: the house is that person. 13 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,199 Speaker 5: Yeah, we just moved in. It's bear. I gotta be 14 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:37,919 Speaker 5: honest with you. 15 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:39,920 Speaker 6: Christians makes fun of me because he thinks I should 16 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,320 Speaker 6: have sports things behind me, and I just I don't 17 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 6: have any boxes in the garage. 18 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 1: Yes, it would be weird because this is the kitchen 19 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:51,280 Speaker 1: that he's in if it had just a bunch of 20 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:52,319 Speaker 1: sports stuff behind him. 21 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 2: But I get it, so we start. 22 00:00:54,560 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 5: All it has. That says family in my book, Sarah. 23 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 1: We started the show earlier today because of that terrible 24 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,400 Speaker 1: Monday night football game of trying to figure out things 25 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 1: to discuss, and Taylor took the reins and decided you 26 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 1: want to talk about Roger Craig, who apparently had a 27 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 1: moment yesterday on the sidelines. But now Taylor has an 28 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,680 Speaker 1: even more probably confusing or useless question for you. 29 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 2: Go ahead, Taylor, I wouldn't call it useless. 30 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 5: So well, the first time you're going back to him? Uh, 31 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,040 Speaker 5: I mean, I mean. 32 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 7: Sarah, I consider you a Chicago vet. And when I 33 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 7: went to Chicago the last time I asked Billy gil 34 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,119 Speaker 7: for advice on what I should do in Chicago, he 35 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 7: gave me the the new Telecafe and the Starbucks Reserve, 36 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 7: two of the worst suggestions I've ever gotten for going 37 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 7: to a city. So I'm wondering, from your perspective, one 38 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 7: what do you think about those recommendations? And two what 39 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 7: would you actually recommend to do in Chicago. 40 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: Quick side note, Billy actually said after recommending that to 41 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: Taylor that he didn't like the Starbucks experience, but he 42 00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 1: wanted somebody else to do. 43 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 4: He wanted someone else to about the same experience. It's 44 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 4: like smelling a part. I don't know why you asked 45 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 4: Billy Gil Well, I mean, I love Billy, but he's 46 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 4: not from here, so it's a weird choice, and that 47 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 4: explains why you got weird suggestions. I have been to 48 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 4: the Starbucks Reserve place once. It's not a place you 49 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 4: need to go to. More than that, it's the lines 50 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 4: are insane and it's just a Starbucks, so not really necessary. 51 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 3: But I've never even been to the New Tella Experience 52 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 3: or whatever that is. 53 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 4: Those are terrible recommendations. There's a million places you could 54 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 4: start in Chicago. Obviously, if it's that time of year, 55 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 4: you got to start at Wrigley Field, the Institution, the 56 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,239 Speaker 4: friendly confines not just the building itself, but the neighborhood 57 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 4: around it. If you want to get touristy, you pop 58 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 4: by the Bean, you walk to Navy Peer, you walk 59 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 4: along the lakefront. You go to the Museum of Science 60 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 4: and Industry, the Field Museum, the Aquarium, the Planetarium like 61 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 4: those are all better touristy suggestions than Nutella Experience, whatever 62 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 4: the hell that is for Starbucks or a Starbucks, no 63 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 4: matter how fancy and big the building is. Yeah, I mean, 64 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,679 Speaker 4: you could walk around Lincoln Park, by Lincoln Park Zoo 65 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 4: with beautiful views and fall foliage in the lake. 66 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:07,639 Speaker 3: You could. 67 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 4: You know, there's a million things to do in Chicago 68 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 4: that are better than going to two retail locations that 69 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 4: exist in every other city. 70 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 3: Uh. Yeah, it depends on who you are to be, Frank. 71 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 4: I have lists that I have copy pasted for people 72 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 4: because people always ask me and I start with like 73 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 4: are you bringing kids? 74 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 3: How much money do you want to spend?

So 97 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 4: I think on an average day, you can't walk in 98 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 4: now and see it like you used to. But if 99 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 4: it's a game day, if those like doors are open, 100 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 4: yeah you could go check it out. 101 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 5: What's the uh like the sports pegging order in Chicago? 102 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 6: Meaning, if if Chicago fans could have one of their 103 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,359 Speaker 6: teams go on and unpressure run for the next ten. 104 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 5: Years, what team would they choose? Bears? 105 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, because the Bears unite the whole city in a 106 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 4: way that the Bulls used to. 107 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 3: And it's been a long time for the Bulls. 108 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 2: I would have Guesst Cubs, uh. 109 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, but Cubs in white sox split the city. 110 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 5: There are tons there are Bulls have already done. 111 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 4: It right, and the Bulls we had the Jordan Run 112 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 4: more recently, which, of course it's been a long time, 113 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 4: but not as long as nineteen eighty five.

That's what's happening. Like, you've 147 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 4: got an owner in Ryan Storff who is way too 148 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 4: loyal to a fault and also is constantly in like 149 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,160 Speaker 4: the sort of mid range with his team, So like, 150 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 4: we don't really want to sell all the way out 151 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 4: and suck so that we can be good, and so 152 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 4: we'll just. 153 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 3: Constantly be a play and team. 154 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 4: You know, you look at the White Sox, they never 155 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 4: really get down to the studs. They're always trying to 156 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 4: hedge their bets because it's hard to sell tickets to 157 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 4: the White Sox that they're not any good because no 158 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 4: one cares. The Cubs can benefit from the fact that 159 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 4: people will show up at Wrigley tourists and otherwise regardless. 160 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 4: So they took their their moment to really suck and 161 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 4: then build up from there. 162 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:47,599 Speaker 3: Ryan Storff's teams don't do that. 163 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 4: I mean, they had a great start to the season, 164 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 4: you know, with Gidea out, it was tough, and I think, yeah, 165 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 4: I think we all know they're going to settle back 166 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 4: down and be a middle of the pack team, which 167 00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 4: is what they've been for years and years and years. 168 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 6: So the Chicago do most of the fans feel like 169 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 6: the Bears have finally gotten the quarterback and the head coach. 170 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 3: Right, Yes, I believe so. 171 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 4: I don't think anyone is deluding ourselves into thinking that 172 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 4: this team is. 173 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 3: Fixed. 174 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 4: Yet they make a lot of mistakes. But I don't 175 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 4: think you could actually Stu, you. 176 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 3: Can fully appreciate this because you're a Jets fan. 177 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 4: I was gonna say, I don't think you can fully 178 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 4: appreciate unless you're from here. The difference in watching a 179 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 4: team where the quarterback takes a safety and pops back 180 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 4: up and is like, all right, we're good, We're still fine, 181 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,239 Speaker 4: We're gonna win this, as opposed to going and sulking 182 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:40,239 Speaker 4: on the bench and getting a photoshopped cigarette. 183 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 3: Put in his mouth for the rest of the game Jakeler. 184 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 4: Right, or or a team that gives up the lead 185 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 4: with a minute left and the game's not over. 186 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 3: Like this is not the Bears. 187 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 4: Team we've had, and yes they make their mistakes, but 188 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 4: we have never been a cardiac kids kind of team. 189 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 3: We have been. It only gets worse. 190 00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 4: From here kind of team once things start to go wrong. 191 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 4: Ben Johnson's play calling is insane. Yes, and also I 192 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 4: just heard yesterday the Bears currently have the best pass rush. 193 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 3: Win rate in the league. 194 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 4: This is a team that has been so problematic on 195 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 4: the offensive line for the entirety of its existence practically, 196 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 4: so to be able. 197 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 3: To protect a quarterback. 198 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 4: I think they're taking the fourth least sacks, and a 199 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 4: lot of that is because Caleb still holds on the 200 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 4: ball too long. But what we've seen with the play 201 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 4: calling and everything else, like it's night and day. If 202 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,679 Speaker 4: you've been watching this team and been cheering for like 203 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 4: a two and a half yard run play, as like 204 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 4: the best display of offense for a long time. 205 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 1: By the way, I just watched a couple of days 206 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: ago bodycam footage of Jay Cutler's arrest. 207 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,680 Speaker 2: You mentioned a dou I arrest.

That's very to me, And it's so hard 527 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 4: to get another shot, even if it's entirely the faults 528 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 4: of the coach and the offensive line and the coordinators 529 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 4: and everybody else. 530 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:07,880 Speaker 3: So seeing people get another shot. 531 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 4: So that's not his story, but his story was one 532 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 4: of sort of like getting built up only to get 533 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 4: taken down. And I don't know how much of it 534 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 4: is attached to his dad and how much he's been 535 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 4: kind of led into saying and doing the wrong things 536 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 4: and starting off his career with a lot of controversy 537 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 4: surrounding him. So if he has success being thrust into 538 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 4: this opportunity as a human being and for him to 539 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 4: potentially mature into a more well rounded and likable adult, 540 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 4: I root for him. But it's the Browns and they 541 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 4: deserve nothing good, and I hope their quarterback situation plagues 542 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 4: them for eternity because of the fucking Deshaun Watson bullshit. 543 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 4: So on that side, I hope he fails miserably and 544 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 4: adds eleven more names to that quarterback jersey that just 545 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 4: keeps naming quarterbacks while they're continuing to look for someone 546 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 4: that will succeed. 547 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 1: Stue's been getting emotional because he's a proud dad and 548 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 1: he knows what that feels like. 549 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 5: Yesterday, imagine little. 550 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:07,920 Speaker 3: I got to meet little stew at a Bulls game. 551 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:11,640 Speaker 5: Yes she did.
