We've 47 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 1: sold a lot of soap. But let's talk some sports. 48 00:02:55,280 --> 00:03:00,799 Speaker 1: Let's go to Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. And I'm 49 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 1: so happy that this happened this year and not last 50 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: year because I would have been blamed, you know, it 51 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: making all about me. I was able to go to Arrowhead. 52 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: I saw the Chiefs last year last November against the Broncos, 53 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: one of the craziest games I've ever been at. That 54 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: was the game the Broncos had the game winning field 55 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: goal blocked and the Chiefs won, and they end up 56 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: going to the Super Bowl before they fell apart, and 57 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: the hangover has continued. So Kansas City playing host to 58 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: the Chargers in an AFC West Brew ha ha in 59 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: this key game for Kansas City, Stand Alive, Stand Alive, 60 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: taking on the Chargers. I don't know if you watch the 61 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: game or not. Now, if you had Kansas City winning 62 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 1: this game and staying alive in the playoff race in 63 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: the AFC, you are a big fat loser. You're a loser. 64 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: As the Chargers said, turn out the last the parties over, 65 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: they eliminate Kansas City from playoff contention. They are d 66 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: e a D dead dead debt Derwin James picking off 67 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 1: a pass from Gardner Minshew. Yes, Gardner Minshew, number seventeen 68 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: in year program, but number ninety nine in your heart. 69 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew was in there. He had taken over for 70 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: an injured Patrick Mahomes. As we mentioned earlier in this program, 71 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: Mahomes done for the season. He was injured late. The 72 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: game was already over pretty much at that point, closing seconds, 73 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,160 Speaker 1: and so Ken's City goes down. Chargers get a win. 74 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: They won by three, and the reigning AFC champions are 75 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: no more as they have been exterminated and decommissioned from 76 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: the playoffs. Justin Herbert had two unred ten yards. Modest numbers, 77 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 1: and so the quarterback apologists will say, he's hard, he's hard. 78 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 1: What's long with ye out? Okay? Fine? Two hundred ten 79 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: yards and a touchdown for the team from so CA. 80 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 1: The Chargers get to ten wins, ten and four consecutive 81 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 1: ten win seasons for the first time since they were 82 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: the old San Diego Chargers. Show me your lightning ball 83 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: way back in six seven. My god, So the rare 84 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 1: season sweep, very rare season sweep for the Chargers over 85 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 1: the Chiefs. The story here, though, is clearly in the 86 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: loser's locker room. This is a pivot point, is it not? 87 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 1: At least it feels like a pivot point that here 88 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: we are. The Chiefs have been eliminated. They have been 89 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: x communicated from the NFL postseason after all of these years, 90 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: first time in ten years, ten years, the Chiefs will 91 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: not be hanging out in playoff football. No wild card game. 92 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,479 Speaker 1: You don't have to worry about the AFC Championship game. 93 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: You don't have to worry about going to the Super 94 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 1: Bowl in San Francisco, although I imagine many of those guys 95 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,160 Speaker 1: will go out there to sell all the crap they're 96 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,599 Speaker 1: trying to sell you on radio roll. That's usually what happens. 97 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 1: But let us discuss the question, and we're gonna get 98 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 1: into this right now with we're gonna focus on Andy Reid, 99 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 1: all right, So the question is who who gets most 100 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:18,159 Speaker 1: of the blame for Andy Reid's Chiefs missing the plus 101 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: who's most to blame for Andy Reid's Chiefs missing the pluffs? 102 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: So I've got sewing machine, swamp water, and Applebee's and 103 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 1: we will combine all of these things together and we 104 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: will punch you right in your intestines, is what we're 105 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: gonna do. So before we get into this, let's hear 106 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 1: from Andy Reid. Everyone's very concerned about the morale, the 107 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: morale of Kansas City. Here's what Andy Reid had to 108 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:45,359 Speaker 1: say on that topic. 109 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,919 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, guys are down our best with their butt 110 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 3: to win, to win the game, you know, And I 111 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 3: wouldn't expect anything less. So you know, it's not a 112 00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 3: great feeling. I wouldn't expect it to be after losing 113 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 3: a game. 114 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,279 Speaker 1: Okay, was anyone expecting any other feeling? They think they 115 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: were gonna have like a Chuck E Cheese party, go 116 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 1: down and play some ski ball or something like that, 117 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: Like what are you gonna do? So as far as 118 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 1: who's most to blame for the Chiefs missing the playoffs 119 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: under Andy Reid number one. Let's start at the very top. 120 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: The snake rots from the head down. Let's start with 121 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: mahomes magic. It went poof, Oh my god, you can't 122 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: say that. Yeah, you can't absolutely say he ends the 123 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,679 Speaker 1: year in the injury tent, which is a bummer. However, 124 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: let's not let that cloud the reality of the situation. 125 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: You watch the NFL this year, long before Mahomes suffered 126 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 1: the season ending injury, Patrick Mahomes went to the candy 127 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 1: shop and he ordered fun dip. Except it wasn't so fun. 128 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: The fun dip wasn't fun. Normally, Mahomes has been a wizard, 129 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: the wizard of Arrowhead and under pressure pulling rabbits out 130 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 1: of the helmet and this guy's magic wand and all that. 131 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: And this year he turned on the sewing machine and 132 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: he stitched together a bunch of overthrows and bad reaths 133 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: and ill timed giveaways and passes bouncing off receivers, hands 134 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: and helmets and all that stuff. And on the deep 135 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: ball for Mahomes, it has been the Rocky Mountain horror 136 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: show is what it's been here and more picks than 137 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: touchdowns for Mahomes, barely completing a third of those deep 138 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: passes for the Kansas City Chiefs offense. Now, is he 139 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 1: still an elite player? Sure? Has he had an elite season? No, 140 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: he did not have an elite season, and a lot 141 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: of butter fingers around him. Butter fingers, a lot of 142 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: butterfingers at the worst possible moments, which is part of 143 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: the story. And he didn't get much help. But ultimately 144 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: a lot of that is on Mahomes though also for 145 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,679 Speaker 1: not there were some terrible games, he said the last 146 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: month here, as things continued to go the wrong direction. 147 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: You also have to point out the drops were often 148 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: drive killers. They were Rashie Rice. I hope he is 149 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: better now at the driving than he was before, because 150 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 1: he's not very good at football these days. My god, 151 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey, who's thirty six, I believe he moves like 152 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 1: a cell phone. He might be older than that now, 153 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:27,079 Speaker 1: like a cell phone on low power, like the you know, 154 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 1: the batteries kind of low and it says, all right, 155 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: you plug your phone in, you got ten percent power. 156 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: And he caught passes the way you'd expect a podcast, 157 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: like if we put Joe Rogan out there and said, hey, Joe, 158 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 1: catch some passes, Okay, Joe would catch passes the way 159 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey caught passes a lot of bricks brick house 160 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: like the combodoors. There no separation, no vertical threat at all. 161 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 1: The front office. Now, the other indictment here is on 162 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 1: the Chiefs front office, like they just assume we're gonna 163 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: get some guys back, and you know what happens when 164 00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 1: you assume and we'll be okay and everything'll be fine. 165 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: There sat on their hands at the trade deadline. They 166 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: refused to give up any draft picks to try to 167 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 1: complete the roster. They just kind of waited. It was like, 168 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: it's like we're out of samples at Costco. Let's wait 169 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 1: until they fill up the sample trade. Okay, well wait, 170 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,680 Speaker 1: well they never did. They went home. The people that 171 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: put the samples out, their day was done. That was it. 172 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: And so you look at everything. Yeah, the defense, Chris Jones, 173 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: keeping up with the Joneses. If there's one moment to 174 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: me that sums up this entire season for the Chiefs, 175 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 1: it was the game against Jacksonville was I believe a 176 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: Monday night game, and you remember Trevor Lawrence fell down 177 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: a couple of times and Chris Jones, mister all everything, 178 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:50,839 Speaker 1: defensive star face of the franchise. His effort, his lack 179 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 1: of hustle was next level and just caught on tape 180 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,559 Speaker 1: and then got all defensive about it and all that. 181 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 1: Like that kind of sums up this season, just like 182 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: the offense had the thing of the jigs that weren't working, 183 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 1: the watching mccolles. But the defense, the numbers weren't terrible, 184 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 1: but then there were these little things like they couldn't 185 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 1: get the do hickey to work, and it was just 186 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 1: a big It was a big mess bottom third and 187 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: sacks bottom third and pressures third down stops were not 188 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 1: great for the Chiefs defense, and they couldn't get off 189 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 1: the field. Often when they needed to get off the field, 190 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 1: they couldn't get off the field. So the malor math, 191 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: if you knew the male of Math, crunch the numbers 192 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: on the Chiefs. Here it's shared blame, which is never fun. 193 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 1: But the buck ultimately does stop with Mahomes because he's 194 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: he was able to elevate the players around him, and 195 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,959 Speaker 1: this year he did not elevate the players around him 196 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 1: on offense, and the defense wasn't good enough to pick 197 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 1: up the slack and now they find themselves watching the 198 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: playoffs when that comes around here in January. All right now, 199 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,559 Speaker 1: page two, So continuing the theme of the hour, the 200 00:11:56,559 --> 00:12:00,679 Speaker 1: theme of the hour, The question here is Chiefs coach 201 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: Andy Reid big Rad. Is Andy Reid in danger of 202 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: being whacked? Is he going to be collateral damage from 203 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 1: the Chiefs being failures this year, not even making the playoffs? 204 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 1: So in terms of Andy Reid being in danger, is 205 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: he about to get fired? 206 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 2: No? 207 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: Is he in stranger danger? I'm nodding my head. Yes, 208 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna nod my head. Yes, on Andy Reid. I 209 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:30,079 Speaker 1: don't see him being fired. He's like you get out 210 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: of here. However, the massage goodbye, I call it the massage. 211 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 1: Whether he's finesse, you know what I'm talking about. Like 212 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,959 Speaker 1: this whole thing smells right now, And it doesn't smell 213 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 1: like delicious barbecue at the tailgated arrowhead. It doesn't smell 214 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: like that. It's musty, it's funky, and it's kind of 215 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 1: like the equipment. If you've ever been around hockey, the 216 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 1: goalies equipment smells like ass just horrible. Or I guess 217 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,839 Speaker 1: any gym bag, any gym bag on a hot, hot day, 218 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:03,560 Speaker 1: sitting out there in the sun, dry, and the summer 219 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: just smells really gnarly bad and terrible. And Andy Reid talking 220 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 1: about Mahomes being the Wizard of Arrowhead. Well, Andy Reid 221 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: was the maestro of offensive play calling, and this season 222 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 1: the Chiefs attack it looked like his spell book. The 223 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 1: spellbook for Andy Reid was soaked in swamp water and 224 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,839 Speaker 1: the pages were sticking together. There was no real creativity, 225 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 1: just kind of reheated leftovers, and it wasn't working and 226 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 1: so and this didn't just pop up one overnight for 227 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 1: the Chiefs. Now, this has been festering. You remember last 228 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: year in the second half there were some signs that 229 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: things were not going well, and then it bottomed out 230 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl when the Chiefs got smoked by 231 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles, and so Big Red was unable to 232 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 1: find the source of the mildew, couldn't find it. And Mahomes, 233 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 1: as good as Mahomes has been this year, he could 234 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: not find a can of fabreeze big enough to take 235 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 1: care of the flatulence in the phone booth that was 236 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: taking place here. And normally you get a mulligan when 237 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,200 Speaker 1: you're a legend we're gonna give that person a mulligan. 238 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,079 Speaker 1: They're a legend of the game that the whispers out 239 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 1: of Kansas City are that there are some factions saying 240 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 1: it's time to make a change, and it's the perfect 241 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 1: time now with Mahomes being hurt, cause you bring in 242 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 1: a new coach, you let them settle in. There'll be 243 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: no expectations for the chiefs. Kelsey's gonna retire, Mahomes will 244 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: be out at least probably half the year. Next year, 245 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: you bring a new coaching staff in, they don't have 246 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: any real pressure on them. They go in there kind 247 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: of set up their own thing. And these are grassroots whispers, 248 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 1: is what they are. You know, pitchforks padded in bubble wrap, 249 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 1: if you will, and all that stuff, and people gonna 250 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: lean into the age game. We saw what happened with 251 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll was not fired by the Seattle Seahawks. Although 252 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 1: he was fired, they made it seem like he left 253 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 1: to take an advisor's role. We know that's bull crap 254 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: because he immediately came back to coach the Raiders, if 255 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: you want to call what he's doing coaching the Raiders, 256 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 1: and so it'd be like, well, Andy Reid's old Let's 257 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: just send Grandpa to the retirement home at midnight when 258 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: no one's looking, and I just can watch. My advice 259 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 1: now is to watch for leaks, watch for the league 260 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: source behind a paywall on the athletic watch for someone 261 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 1: connected to Mahomes questioning Andy Reid, and useful idiots in 262 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: the media pushing the Andy slipping stories in the media 263 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 1: that he's not doing this right and he's screwing this 264 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: thing up. And then the Mahomes needs a new voice. 265 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 1: As we said and read the saving grace for Andy Reid, 266 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 1: there is a saving grace is there are no obvious replacements, 267 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 1: Like there's no obvious name that they say, Okay, we 268 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 1: get that guy and we're gold. The only one that 269 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 1: would make a little bit of sense will be Cliff Kingsbury, 270 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: who's the OC of the Washington Commanders, and he coached 271 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 1: Mahomes in college at Texas Tech. And there's a guy, 272 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 1: how about Cliff Kingsbury was a hot he was hot, 273 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 1: hot to trot. Last year Washington got to the final 274 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 1: four in the NFL playoffs, and then he didn't take 275 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 1: a head coaching job. He was very arrogant. He didn't 276 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 1: like the jobs that were open. And now you think 277 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: anyone's gonna go out of the way to hire Cliff 278 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 1: Kingsbury after the Washington offense tank this year. Come on, 279 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: he had a chance and he said it out. But 280 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: that would be the only one. Arrowhead mahomes Cliff Kingsbury. 281 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 1: There's a connection there. And so unless he leaves the 282 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: Beltway and heads over and with a with a whiteboard 283 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: in hand and drop plays for Patrick mahomes the loyalty. 284 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: So the malord math on Andy Reid, he's in the 285 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 1: danger zone. The good news is there's no one who's 286 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 1: really stepping up. You're like, oh, that guy's gonna get 287 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 1: the job, all right. Final point now to the pop 288 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 1: star in the corner of the room, question, what does 289 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: the storyline of the Chiefs being eliminated from playoff considerations? 290 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 1: What does this do for the Taylor Swift fueled NFL 291 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:22,479 Speaker 1: conspiracy theories that have been going around for several years. 292 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 1: So I'll address this. This is the snuffleophagus in the room. 293 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 1: This is what happens when a conspiracy theory runs out 294 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 1: of auxygen. There's no more auction here. The Taylor Swift 295 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: fueled NFL rigging crowd. Can we do a wellness check 296 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:45,239 Speaker 1: on them? Are they doing okay? Are they quietly right now? 297 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 1: They're slipping out the emergency exit at the Applebee's, and 298 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: they don't want to pay the check. They're like, I 299 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: was just going to get out of Apple's. We go 300 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 1: through the emergency exit. We're not paying the check. That's it. 301 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 1: For years, those that partake not farmer John. They're in 302 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,959 Speaker 1: engagement farmers is what they are. They're doing engagement farming. 303 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 1: And they've got their tinfoil sombreros on and they swore 304 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 1: up and down on the Holy Bible that the NFL 305 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 1: was greasing the skids, that it was all a rig 306 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 1: deal for Kansas City. It was the Travis kelce Taylor 307 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 1: Swift romance. It was the Golden Boy Patrick Mahomes, a 308 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:26,880 Speaker 1: scripted love story. And if it was a scripted love story, 309 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,479 Speaker 1: wouldn't it end with the Super Bowl confetti in the 310 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: air everywhere, drippling down, down, down, down down confetti, just 311 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:41,360 Speaker 1: like that February retirement. Then sometime in the spring wedding 312 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 1: Vibes with the biggest wedding in America in many, many years. 313 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 1: There instead Travis Kelcey couldn't I guess we could say 314 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 1: couldn't shake it off. He was unable to shake it 315 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 1: off this year and it was just a bad year. 316 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:57,639 Speaker 1: And he limped off Arrowhead and with a bit of 317 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:01,159 Speaker 1: a blank space. He had a bit of a like 318 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: space where the magic used to be, and he was 319 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 1: kind of frozen there. And that stench that the Chiefs 320 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 1: had on offense there. You know, it's just bad bad blood. 321 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 1: There's another one bad blood. So did not go well here, 322 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 1: and the wizardry of the Chiefs obviously away. M Kelsey's 323 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:30,879 Speaker 1: magic gone, the plot armor ripped away for the conspiracy theory. 324 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:34,160 Speaker 1: And this was not cinema. This was definitely not cinema. 325 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,959 Speaker 1: It was a documentary, but not the documentary Taylor Swift's 326 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: been in here recently.

The next winning the NBA Cup. 388 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 5: In any event where you're the last one standing and 389 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 5: you're able to hang a banner, especially iconic MSG, you 390 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 5: take that seriously, and all of our guys took it seriously. 391 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 5: But the most exciting part about it, I feel like we're. 392 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: In New loon righter, Let's go what fans we got love? 393 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,199 Speaker 1: It does? Yeah, of course he said the same thing 394 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 1: when he coached the Lakers and when he coached Cleveland. 395 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,679 Speaker 1: It's it's like a bad stand up comedian. You're the 396 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 1: greatest crowd I've ever had. Let me tell us that 397 00:23:57,600 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 1: I was in Detroit last night. The people in Detroit 398 00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:02,640 Speaker 1: were holes, right, and that you were doing. You did 399 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 1: that in Cleveland. Then you go the next time over, 400 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 1: you go to Pittsburgh. Well, bet me to I was 401 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: in Cleveland last night. Those people were schmucks. But you, peeple, 402 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 1: this is a great crowd. I'm a rack, all right. 403 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 1: So let's discuss here as well. Set your Liberty is 404 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 1: down the street from that arena. It's New York, New York. 405 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 1: They have that right there. So let us discuss the 406 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 1: question what does this Knickerbocker's in quote NBA Cup Championship 407 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 1: in quotes, what does this do for the franchise of 408 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 1: this title? So I've got snow globe, crude oil, and 409 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: dead wood, and we will combine all of these things 410 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 1: together and we'll charge you fifty bucks to park, because 411 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: that's how they roll in Vegas, where they try to 412 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 1: screw over the people that visit that town with overpriced 413 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: parking and no freebies anymore because the corporations have taken 414 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 1: over and they're a bunch of losers. I think you 415 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:56,400 Speaker 1: can also have a dirty water dog and a soft 416 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,439 Speaker 1: pretzel if you want, But those saft pretzels in New 417 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 1: York anyway, are the same consistency of the concrete that 418 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 1: you walk on. So a my first thought is the 419 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 1: the New York Knicks have done it. They have done it, baby, 420 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 1: Oh my god. I hugged Jason Smith in the hallway, 421 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:17,120 Speaker 1: my friend, longtime Nick suck Up. I said, I've known 422 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 1: you we uede radio back years ago. I said, man, 423 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 1: finally you get to celebrate.

They have whatever that is. I don't 430 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:40,159 Speaker 1: even know what it is. They just made it up. 431 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 1: Three They even have that. The first year it was 432 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 1: called the NBA Play Something Tournament. I don't remember what's 433 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,680 Speaker 1: called they then they changed it. They threw a corporate 434 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: sponsor on it, because that makes everything kosher when you 435 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: put a corporate sponsor on it. And that's right, you 436 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 1: get the Fugeesy Trophy Capital left Fugheze. Congratulations.

The piggy bank is still 495 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 1: going to be empty. Now, meanwhile, someone that gets it. 496 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 1: Page two here, Sir Charles has chimed in. Charles bark 497 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 1: he recently unloaded prior to this event, mind you, on 498 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 1: the NBA Cup speaking with a long time I got 499 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: whacked from his job on the sports radio of the 500 00:29:56,520 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 1: Bay Area. But Tom Tolbert and longtime Bay Area as back. 501 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: Now he's doing a podcast like everyone else is, and 502 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: so he had Barkley on because Tolbert knows Barkley because 503 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 1: he used to play in the NBA and played against Barkley. 504 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 1: So Charles Barkley confirmed that he hates hates the fact 505 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 1: that the tournament, the NBA Cup, is all about that 506 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 1: prize money and they have to entice the players to 507 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: prioritize those games because the regular season the players obviously 508 00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 1: don't care. We all know that it's an open secret here. 509 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 1: And Barkley called it ridiculous that they had to pay 510 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 1: the players essentially a bounty here to get them to 511 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 1: play with extra efforts. So the question how did Charles 512 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 1: Barkley's statement about the NBA Cup being embarrassing? How did 513 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,959 Speaker 1: that sound to you? So listen, Charles Barkley obviously preaching 514 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 1: to the choir. It was a symphony. It was an 515 00:30:56,640 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 1: absolute symphony. Every note, every note was It was just 516 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,640 Speaker 1: a standing ovation. Bravo to Charles Barkley. Does it again 517 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 1: at cacophony of goodness, cacoffny of goodness from Charles Barkley. Here, 518 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 1: Sir Charles, Now he did not genuflect to the altar 519 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 1: of staying of Adam. So I was gonna say, stan 520 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: Van Gundy, I was watching the game, so you wouldn't 521 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 1: have to. And I'm pretty sure stan Van Gundy had 522 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 1: knee pads with Adam Silver's face on him. I mean, 523 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 1: he was really going to town. Let me tell you, 524 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 1: take a breath there, stand calm down. He was praising 525 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 1: the cup and what a great thing. Dwayne Wade, who's 526 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: terrible as a broadcaster. Brother, I think God is on Amazon. 527 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:35,719 Speaker 1: No one watches him, but God does he suck. So 528 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 1: Dwayne Wade was on there and he didn't know what 529 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: to say, so he was just kind of agreeing with 530 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,920 Speaker 1: Stan Van Gunney. But Stan should get a room. He 531 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: wants he wants that job, he loves that good paying 532 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,959 Speaker 1: job NBA broadcaster. And no one watches those games, so 533 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 1: nobody cares what he says. But I happen to be watching. 534 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 1: And man, that was some major sucking up to management 535 00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 1: by Stan Van Gundy, Like, dude, get a room. So 536 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 1: bad Now, this is how you juxtapost Charles Barkley the 537 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 1: stand van Gutty. Charles Barkley not a houseman, stand van Gutty, houseman, 538 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 1: big difference there. Charles Barkley is crude oil right, he's raw, 539 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 1: he's unfiltered. He stains the carpet, The whole thing tells 540 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 1: the truth, whether you like the smell or not. Okay, 541 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 1: and calling the NBA Cup embarrassing is not a hot 542 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 1: take by Charles Barke. It's basic math. It's basic math 543 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 1: on the mountain of bad ideas on the Mountain of 544 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: bad ideas. This gimmick is parked right near the summit, 545 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 1: right near the summit, on the Mountain of bad ideas, 546 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 1: just below Adam Silver spending years years defending load management 547 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 1: as a sound strategy while the product, the quality of 548 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 1: the product, quietly fell apart, like a stale churrow right 549 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:55,320 Speaker 1: in front of his fat face. Not fatty skinny, but 550 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 1: you get the point. Think about this. The NBA had 551 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 1: to bring in a eventually, the keepler elves. They had 552 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 1: to bring in a bunch of elves here and wave 553 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 1: a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. 554 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 1: To get these entitled players to try hard. They had 555 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 1: to say, hey, fellas, let me dangle five hundred plus 556 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 1: thousand dollars and please try in December. Thank you, signed 557 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 1: Adam Love y'all. Okay, Meanwhile, this is what I don't 558 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: get about, and maybe I'm wrong, and you can call up. 559 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 1: I'll give out the number in a few minutes. You 560 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 1: can explain why I'm misguiding. I don't understand why this 561 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 1: is such a big deal. The average salary, the median 562 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 1: salary in the NBA is twelve million dollars. Do you 563 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 1: understand the median salaries told me as well. Okay, that's 564 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 1: just because there's a lot of guys making fifty million. Okay, 565 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 1: so the minimum getting salary, Like you know how you 566 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 1: hired at McDonald's, you get minimum wage if you're hired 567 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: by the NBA. The minimum salary. You know what it is? 568 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:00,880 Speaker 1: You don't, Okay, what do you think you think? Yeah? Number? Okay, 569 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:08,280 Speaker 1: the minimum salary one point two million. Let me repeat 570 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:12,400 Speaker 1: that for the Yeah, in the fact, one point two million. 571 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 1: Uh Now again where I come from. If you make 572 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 1: one point two million, you are wait for it, you're rich, 573 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 1: is what you are. Okay. Uh So you don't have 574 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:26,240 Speaker 1: to shovel snow to make a couple of extra bucks. 575 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 1: You don't have to take an extra job with you know, 576 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 1: delivering food or whatever. You don't have to do any 577 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 1: of that stuff. You're not eating the Marcella and Brooklyn 578 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:38,239 Speaker 1: noodles and of Noodle's diet. You're not doing Ramen and 579 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:40,960 Speaker 1: Adam Silver. Again, I go back to the point this 580 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 1: bozo Adam Silver, who the NBA media doesn't want to 581 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 1: criticize because they love Adam Silver because they get access. 582 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 1: Adam Silver nurtured this culture. Uh he did right, and 583 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 1: now his little baby has grown up into a fire 584 00:34:55,719 --> 00:35:00,120 Speaker 1: breathing monster, a giant dragon, a three headed dragon. It 585 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 1: has happened. It's all grown up now, congratulations, all grown up. 586 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 1: And the only way to get the players to care 587 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 1: about a regular season event is to bribe them. That 588 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 1: is not innovation, Adam Silver. That is not That is 589 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:17,560 Speaker 1: desperation is what that is. 590 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:19,959 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Mellor 591 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 2: Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific. 592 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:26,280 Speaker 1: Let's welcome our contestants for Malar's Mountain of Money.
