I'm just the believer of if you 18 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 2: can actually go seven plus innings in a game, an 19 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 2: extra doffing of the cap. 20 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:12,199 Speaker 1: Also Game three of the NBA Finals and Mets Best 21 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 1: record in Baseball Night. So there's that going on. 22 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 2: The Dodgers took the series from the Padres. That was 23 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 2: kind of the Wait a second, I think another coach 24 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 2: just rejected the Nix. Do you have proof of that? 25 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 2: Do you have proof of that? We need proof of this, Aladyne, 26 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 2: Every coach, all the coaches are done except for Doc. 27 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,760 Speaker 2: But what did I do about Billy Donovan? Right because 28 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,040 Speaker 2: he was the number three longest tenured coach, And then 29 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 2: what do we get from KC hoops? Yeah, but now 30 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 2: you can throw anybody out there. People would believe it. 31 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:41,479 Speaker 2: You can throw all anybody else a liar. You could 32 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 2: throw anybody out there. They've rejected the Nick. I'm just 33 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 2: waiting for Luke Walton to tell you guys to beat it. 34 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 2: It's eventually going to get down to Doc or nobody. 35 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 2: It's Doc. I mean, now I'm going to that point 36 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 2: where it's the only only Doc is the only going 37 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 2: You asked everybody else. Everybody else said no, you know, okay, 38 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 2: I'm here, I'm standing the gug you. I mean at 39 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 2: this point, really, it would be better for the Knicks 40 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,279 Speaker 2: if they just blanketly send out a note to every 41 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 2: NBA team saying we'd like to talk to your head 42 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 2: coach and see what you get back. That would be more, 43 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 2: that would least be less labor intensive than getting told 44 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 2: no individually by all of these coaches every five bleep 45 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 2: in minutes. Seems like you gotta just set down a 46 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,239 Speaker 2: mass email BCC to everybody and see who were responded 47 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 2: in the affirmative. Okay, you know what, we'll get to. 48 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 2: We'll get I'm still stand no, we gotta do this now? 49 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 2: Uh do we'll get to the n A five? I mean, 50 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 2: really it is, I'm I'm I've now convinced it's gonna 51 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 2: get down to that. The Knicks are gonna go get done. 52 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 2: But if that means because I mean the Bucks have 53 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 2: been selling the idea that they need Doc to keep 54 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 2: Yannis happy. If Doc leaves for the Knicks comes with Doc, boy, 55 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 2: I don't know. You know what? 56 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 3: Give me? 57 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 2: Let me think about that for a couple of minutes. 58 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 2: Let me think about it. You've got to love but 59 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 2: I get Doc because I just watch what Doc has 60 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,839 Speaker 2: done with Yannis, and that was nothing. Close your eyes? 61 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 2: What do you see? Nothing? So if Yannis comes with Doc, 62 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 2: how do I think that's gonna work? I just watched 63 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 2: Doc for two years completely under it. Hin have Jalen 64 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,679 Speaker 2: Bruns with him. It doesn't matter, man, you didn't have Chlamy. 65 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 2: It's gonna be down to it's not gonna be down 66 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 2: to doc or rehiring TIBs like that's where the Knicks 67 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 2: are eventually gonna get negotiate a higher pay rate. Okay, 68 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 2: so till me thirty million, but I'm not coming back 69 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 2: for a pen. You have to take in the paperback 70 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 2: if yeah, and that long goodbye? I mean, didn't you 71 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 2: have the violins playing for you as you read that one? 72 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 2: I need to have a personal intervention here for a second. Again, 73 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 2: we'll get to the NBA five there at halftime right now, 74 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 2: four point lead for the Pacers. Yeah, but James Dolan 75 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 2: is lee putting up some tasty licks right now. The 76 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 2: Knicks have now been told no from teams who they 77 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 2: want to interview their head coaches. They've been told no 78 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 2: by the Rockets for you Doka. They've been told no 79 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 2: by the Mavericks for Jason Kidd. They've been told no 80 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 2: by the t Wolves for Chris Finch, Chris Finch, Chris Finch, 81 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 2: Chris Finch. They've been told no by the Atlanta Hawks 82 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 2: for Quinn Snyder. 83 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 3: Yeah. 84 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 2: Now they've been told no by the Bulls for Billy Donovan. 85 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 2: Like they think it's two thousand and nine, Okay, let 86 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 2: me just say this. Stop doing this. All you're doing 87 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,479 Speaker 2: is embarrassing yourself. What did I say last night? You 88 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 2: can't keep doing this because eventually you get to the 89 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 2: point where you think, do people even want the job? 90 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 2: Does anybody? Does anybody want this job? Because being told 91 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 2: no by the teams is like being told no by 92 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 2: the coach, because if the coach wanted the job, he 93 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 2: would say now, wait, now, wait, no, wait, I know 94 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 2: you don't know you want to give permission, but I 95 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 2: really want that job. And what have we said when 96 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,480 Speaker 2: a coach says If a coach said I want to 97 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 2: talk to the Knicks about the job, guess what, he's 98 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 2: not coming back to that team. It's done. Whether he 99 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 2: gets the job or not, it's done. You can't bring 100 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 2: a guy back to coach when he says I want 101 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 2: to go coach, and go and go coach that team. 102 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 2: So if you get a coach saying yes, then what 103 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,280 Speaker 2: you're doing is figuring out the compensation, which is what 104 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 2: you're doing anyway if someone said yes, so it doesn't matter. 105 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 2: Nicks are being told no. These are coaching teams that 106 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 2: are telling the Knicks no, and the Knicks are embarrassing 107 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 2: themselves by continuing to ask and say no, I'm sorry, 108 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 2: but just because you're single, you're not going to get 109 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 2: people to break up with their prom dates so you 110 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 2: can take them to the prom. It's not going to 111 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 2: happen in one day. In twenty four hour span, the 112 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 2: Knicks have gone from what a destination? What a job? 113 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 2: This is how many people are going to. 114 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: Be clamoring and climbing a lot of each other to 115 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: get this job, and now it's nobody wants it. They 116 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: can't get anybody, and they're embarrassing themselves with interview because 117 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: basically now they've been told no five times six. If 118 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 1: you want to count, Jay Wright, you say, em, I'm 119 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 1: kind of happy staying in retirement.

It's so embarrassing and 124 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: I want the Knicks to just stop. No one is leaving, 125 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,679 Speaker 1: No one is leaving their job to come coach the team. Okay, 126 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 1: I know you think that maybe it's not embarrassing because 127 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: well we're just asking for visiops.

And oh, by 130 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: the way, what coach is gonna say yes? Because coaches 131 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: want to feel like they're special, right like if you say, hey, 132 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: we want to talk to you about talking to your coach.

But this would 173 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 2: be a much different search and your feeling, I believe 174 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 2: for you and for well for the rest of the 175 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 2: basketball loving world, would be much different if it was 176 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 2: a cattle call for all of the non tenured coaches, 177 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 2: i e. Everybody that's out in the free agent market 178 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 2: looking for their next job in between fishing trips, right, 179 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 2: because then it's a we can bring guys in, talk 180 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 2: to them and have some learnings, uh, and maybe glean 181 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 2: some insight what did they see? What you know, philosophy 182 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 2: of how they would utilize the roster we have. And 183 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 2: for Leon Rose, that's what you want, right, You want 184 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 2: them throwing flowers at your feet because they can find 185 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 2: because every one of them is gonna come in and 186 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 2: tell you how great their role players could be in 187 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 2: their system, right, because that's why you got rid of 188 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,439 Speaker 2: Doc top Tibodous. See, I'm bringing Doc Rivers in his 189 00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:00,319 Speaker 2: Thibodeau is that he didn't utilize the roster you you'd 190 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 2: assembled that was a more complete roster. No, he went 191 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 2: five and then occasionally plus two, plus three depending on 192 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 2: the game, sometimes not at all. Right, So all of 193 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 2: that to say, you're going back to all of these 194 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 2: coaches with jobs. I don't think it's untenable for a 195 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 2: guy to go have a conversation because in the end 196 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 2: you have to. You can't hold him a hostage, say no, 197 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 2: you're not talking to them. And if you're the coach, 198 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 2: look you're hired to be fired. You know that it's 199 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 2: going to end for you in that spot at some 200 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 2: point anyway, So have the conversation and then you come 201 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 2: back and in calmer heads until it's number five, number six, 202 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 2: number now serving number fourteen, which is now we're at 203 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,679 Speaker 2: the deli counter with the Knicks, and you're all out 204 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 2: of turkey, roast, beef and anything you actually wanted. Now 205 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 2: we're getting into the you know, jar of pickled meats 206 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 2: and things of that nature. That's all that's left because 207 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 2: you've sold out. So for the Knicks, you you're in 208 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 2: that horrible spot. And we talked about it when the 209 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 2: odds first came out A lot of big names, a 210 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 2: lot of guys with great resumes, former Coach of the 211 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 2: Year candidates and winners, great assistant coaches that you can 212 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 2: go and talk to. UH And now you've just become 213 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 2: the laughingstock to where anytime there's a no, you have 214 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 2: to make sure it's Central versus Centel, you have to 215 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 2: make sure it's Shans versus Charms. Because I really had 216 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 2: to look for the Billy Donovan when I'm like, okay, 217 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,679 Speaker 2: now wait, let me make sure this is real. Yes, 218 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 2: I did what I know because you thought I'd said 219 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 2: I'm a bogus account to try to trick you.

So I was 224 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:46,319 Speaker 2: wheeling in d like that's that's a legitimate source. That's 225 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 2: legit as loud. It's a meat. Now it's Billy Donovan, 226 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 2: I'm being told. The Knicks reached out to coach Carter, 227 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 2: the Knicks reached out to Gene Hackman, and I said, Hey, 228 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 2: what's go I was gonna say the greatest fictional football 229 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,599 Speaker 2: coach was Herman Boone, according to one website. 230 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 1: At this point, at this point, don't the Nicks just 231 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 1: call Greg Burholter?

I mean, if you're there, you're embarrassing yourself so much. 234 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 2: If the coaches wanted the job, they would, they would 235 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 2: let you. You would find a way and you would ask 236 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 2: back channel. You just keep communication. Told no, being told 237 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 2: no by the team is like being told no by 238 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 2: the coach.

All the stuff it breaks down to, 652 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: that's because that's what the Pacers do. It's how they 653 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 1: cut into leads, it's how they they do what they can. 654 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,000 Speaker 1: It's how they open up their offense, because everybody on 655 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 1: the floor can hit threes. Right, it's a two point game, 656 00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 1: and tonight the Pacers are six out of twenty two 657 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: for three point range, six out of twenty two, and 658 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 1: still somehow it's a two point game. 659 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 2: Well, you've done a really good job of taking care 660 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 2: of Thunder turnover. 661 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 1: The Thunder have four players in double figures doesn't matter, 662 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: doesn't matter somehow, it's a it's a two point game 663 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: and they can't hit a three to save their lives 664 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: like that, like that that show would I look at 665 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: this and I go, okay, this this doesn't make sense. 666 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 2: It doesn't make sense. Late in the third they had 667 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 2: seventeen points off turnovers, a couple of easy walk in layups. Uh. 668 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 2: Chet Holmgren got out to that huge start. That was 669 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 2: all fun. Yeah, Chet Hogan, he was a je Holmer. 670 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 3: I mean that. 671 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 2: Look my two guys, Hey, I want to I want 672 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 2: to bet the first quarter that Homegren scores double digits 673 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 2: and SGA doesn't score. That's what I want. And then 674 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 2: Matherin goes nuts in the second quarter. You and I 675 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 2: were joking before the show, right, Look that's fourteen. That's 676 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 2: the other part of it is late in the last 677 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 2: like month, Bettett Mathren has proven Hey he's the best 678 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 2: sixth man in the NBA. And he's not even the 679 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 2: first guy off the bench. He's got twenty two right 680 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 2: now in eighteen minutes. This is the fourth or fifth 681 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 2: time in the playoffs. You can go, how does the 682 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 2: guy have this many points in this amount of time? 683 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 2: And shoot this well, Mathern is keeping them in the game, 684 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 2: like he's the guy. Like Halliburton's having a good game. 685 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 2: Is he having an incredible great game? Nobody's having a 686 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 2: good game, right he's yeah, and Siakam's having a good 687 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 2: all around game. But Mathrin with twenty two and eighteen, 688 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 2: he's eight out of ten from the floor. Man, It's like, 689 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, he's he's Vinnie Johnson on steroids. 690 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 2: You know what the thing about it, I don't get 691 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 2: anything for the Vinnie Johnson reference.

That's Benedict Mathrin. He's 695 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 2: the new Vinnie Johnson microwave chicken because I just had 696 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 2: that right before dinner. Oh but a guy that can 697 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 2: that can fill it up. An unheralded hero of those 698 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 2: teams made folk hero, yeah, but on the grander scale, 699 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 2: he never gets included in any best of No. But 700 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 2: now I'm just thinking about the microwave chicken I had 701 00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 2: before the show. That was real, thinking about thinking about 702 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 2: eating chicken for dinner.

Talked 753 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,320 Speaker 2: about what it's going to be like having Aaron Rodgers 754 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:51,520 Speaker 2: in now that he is the Steelers quarterback. And we've 755 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 2: told you for a while, Look what kind of fit 756 00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 2: is this gonna be? The Steelers hate throwing the football. 757 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin wants to run the football, whether or not 758 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 2: the Steelers are good at it. They're bad at running 759 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,239 Speaker 2: the football. They don't they're a volume running team. They 760 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,920 Speaker 2: have the lowest yards per carry average in the NFL 761 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 2: last Yearnie Harris was like three because he's just a guy. 762 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 2: He's just a guy. J Warren is a little bit better. 763 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 2: But all they do is run the football to just 764 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 2: keep time off the clock. That's all they do. They 765 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 2: don't run the ball particularly well. You can't win games 766 00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:27,440 Speaker 2: ultimately and win big in the NFL. This is how 767 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:30,360 Speaker 2: you're playing. But now you're bringing Aaron Rodgers, right, And 768 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 2: Arthur Smith met the media today, they said, hey, how 769 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:34,400 Speaker 2: are you gonna work Aaron Rodgers into the offense assistant? 770 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 2: He says, well, when you sign Aaron Rodgers and you 771 00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 2: trade for DK Metcalf, you're not bringing these guys in 772 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,800 Speaker 2: to run the wishbunk, which is a great it's a 773 00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:45,799 Speaker 2: great's done. So she got there. Now, just thinking back 774 00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 2: to like Oklahoma in the eighties with like Jamel Holloway 775 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:55,000 Speaker 2: running the option and how great that was. Let's go 776 00:36:56,760 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 2: oh man, Jamel Holloway was so good. Now, okay, that's 777 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 2: a great thing to say, but you're not gonna do 778 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:09,480 Speaker 2: it because Aaron Rodgers. Aaron Rodgers is not gonna be 779 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,359 Speaker 2: happy handing the football off twenty five times a game, 780 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:14,840 Speaker 2: maybe more. But guess what, that's what he's going to 781 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:18,360 Speaker 2: do suddenly. Mike Tom's not suddenly gonna say, oh, we 782 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 2: have Aaron Rodgers, let's throw it fifty times. Not gonna happen. 783 00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,719 Speaker 2: Rogers is going from a team that at least threw 784 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:26,759 Speaker 2: the football more than anybody out The Jets had the 785 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,759 Speaker 2: fewest rushing attempts of anybody in the NFL, mainly because 786 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,040 Speaker 2: they stunk and we're playing from behind most of the time. 787 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 2: But they didn't run the football. Rogers got to throw 788 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:37,360 Speaker 2: it a ton. That's not happened in Pittsburgh. Man. This 789 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 2: is why this whole Rogers Steelers marriage doesn't make sense. 790 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 2: He needs to throw the football. He likes to do it. 791 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,839 Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin likes his quarterbacks to be necessary evils. We're 792 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:49,879 Speaker 2: not gonna suddenly. There's not gonna be all these games 793 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:53,240 Speaker 2: where there's forty five fifty passes being thrown. They're simply 794 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:55,919 Speaker 2: not gonna do it. Rogers needs the reps he needs, 795 00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 2: and it's not gonna happen. This is a marriage made 796 00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:01,840 Speaker 2: in hell. Right, you've heard of a marriage made in heaven. 797 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:05,280 Speaker 2: This is a marriage made in hell. This is Mephistopheles. 798 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 2: Do you take piezlebub I do I do? Go play football? 799 00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,239 Speaker 2: This is not going to work. Right. For all you 800 00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:13,839 Speaker 2: talk about Rogers, great, put him on a good team. Yeah, yeah, 801 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 2: this is not good. There is one There is one 802 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 2: style and philosophy of how to how to call plays 803 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 2: offensively that Mike Tomlin Arthur Smith have all the way 804 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 2: over on the other side, drink your milkshake. All the 805 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:30,600 Speaker 2: way on the other side is Aaron Rodgers with, Hey, 806 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:32,759 Speaker 2: I don't like cannon. I want to throw it all 807 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,919 Speaker 2: the time. Yeah, good Lee's gonna audi pule the hell 808 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 2: out of it. Good luck when it goes well, you're 809 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 2: gonna have the begrudging lead the Mike Tomlin nod behind 810 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 2: the sunglasses and move on. I give you this as 811 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:51,239 Speaker 2: evidence that this can uh and and could work in 812 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 2: the Aaron Rodgers let's air it out mode. The final 813 00:38:54,760 --> 00:39:00,440 Speaker 2: three regular seasons of Ben Roethlisberger's career, Yes, one hundred 814 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 2: and seventy five pass attemps. Oh yeah, yeah, six hundred 815 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,839 Speaker 2: and eight pass attempts. Yeah, not doing that again. Six 816 00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:10,240 Speaker 2: hundred and five passes, not doing that again. He wanted out. 817 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:13,360 Speaker 1: He wanted out from the Ben Roethlisberger aerial show. 818 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 2: But that was also the end of Ben Roethlisberger, where 819 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:18,360 Speaker 2: he was no longer the guy that could extend plays 820 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 2: with his legs. He was crumbling. 821 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:21,239 Speaker 1: Well, this is this is how he explained to Mike 822 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:22,960 Speaker 1: tomm He said, listen, I know you like to run 823 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,640 Speaker 1: the football. I can't throw the ball more than five yards, 824 00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 1: so it's really like a running play. I'm accurate. I'll 825 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 1: complete the ball. It may only be a three yard game, 826 00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:33,600 Speaker 1: but it's like a running play. Oh well we'll do 827 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,879 Speaker 1: that then. Okay, great, But we've talked about that a lot. 828 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:38,840 Speaker 1: That's been the NFL for the last decade. 829 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:42,760 Speaker 2: Those are running plays essentially, right the quick flanker scream. 830 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 2: Don't you think that's Tomlin going from Okay, I hated 831 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:49,279 Speaker 2: the end of this era. What do you think it's 832 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 2: a coincidence that the quarterbacks they picked they have gone 833 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,800 Speaker 2: at the bargain basement guys that have the last chance 834 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:57,880 Speaker 2: hotel to come play. Yeah, because I want to make 835 00:39:57,920 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 2: sure you're not gonna be some guy to try to 836 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 2: spray the football all in the field. That's not what 837 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:01,839 Speaker 2: we do. 838 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:03,839 Speaker 1: You think there's a coincidence that that's what they've been 839 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,760 Speaker 1: going after and now this is just gonna be a disaster. 840 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 1: It's gonna be an I mean, think about it. 841 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 2: I told you taking the underage as. 842 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 1: I told you by December and thanks to Mike Tannebou 843 00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 1: for stealing our take that we've had like like months ago. 844 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 1: By December, it's gonna be. Can Aaron Rodgers finish the 845 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:20,919 Speaker 1: season as a starting quarterback or as Will Howard gonna 846 00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 1: get reps?
