8
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a fun ride, especially this weekend here,

9
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 1: Championship weekend in the NFL. We've got some interesting NBA

10
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 1: stories percolating. Gosh, I do kind of enjoy when the

11
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:50,839
Speaker 1: Brooklyn Nets go down, especially Katie doesn't play Kyrie pouting

Speaker 1: Nets getting smashed Vampy the Cavaliers, Oh boy, that will

13
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 1: be a fun topic. But mostly this will be an

14
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 1: NFL show, given that it is championship weekend. Three games

15
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 1: left in the NFL season. That's it. Then we turned

16
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 1: to college hoops, NBA, NFL Draft. I mean, the show

17
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 1: must go on. You guys know that just because football

18
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 1: is ending, it it'll be a melancholy field. But we

19
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: will stay upbeat. I do want to start the show,

20
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:23,320
Speaker 1: of course, just touching on the passing of a legendary

21
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:31,399
Speaker 1: baseball figure. Henry Aaron Hammer and Hank passed away on Friday. Obviously, listen,

22
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: the guy was a Titan in the sport and I

23
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: was reading a bunch of oh bits. Just yeah, I

24
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 1: got I get caught. I've gotten kind of weird. I

25
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,119
Speaker 1: don't know, Gavin if will dive down the rabbit hole

26
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: of of death, but I have thought a little bit

27
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 1: more about death over the last ten months. You know.

28
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: I guess when like a nine eleven is happening every

29
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 1: day and we're losing three thousand people, you know, I'm

30
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: checking in more with the parents. I'm not gonna I'm

31
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 1: not gonna fake the funk their folks. Um. And I've

32
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: been reading about these oh bits for Hank Aaron, and

33
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 1: my gosh, this guy went through some stuff. Um. Just

34
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 1: a legendary baseball player. I love watching when he passed

35
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: Babe Ruth. I love watching him around the bases and

36
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 1: then that the guy just like runs over to hug him,

37
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 1: some random guy. Um. But I thinks I didn't know

38
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 1: where that the Braves had hired two Atlanta Police officers

39
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 1: to sit in the stands while off duty overlooking Hank

40
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: Aaron as he approached Babe Ruth's record, just looking for trouble.

41
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 1: I got tons of death threats and I didn't totally

42
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: realize that. You know, in the seventies, people were very

43
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: very upset that, you know, a black guy, Hank Aaron

44
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 1: was gonna break Babe Ruth's record. And we actually have

45
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,959
Speaker 1: the home run call from the legendary Vince Scully. It's

46
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,799
Speaker 1: I mean, you just take a deep breath and think

47
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: about this for a second. Here's Hank Aaron passing Babe

48
00:02:54,760 --> 00:03:00,519
Speaker 1: Ruth all time on the home run list. Puck the

49
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: goes back to the friend Deity God. What a marvelous

50
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: moment for baseball. What a marvelous moment for Atlanta and

51
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: the state of Georgia. What a marvelous moment for the

52
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: country in the world. A black man is getting a

53
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 1: standing ovation in the Deep South for breaking a record

54
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: of an all time baseball idol. And it is a

55
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 1: great moment for all of us, and particularly for Henry Aaron,

56
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: who was met at home plate not only by every

57
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: member of the Braves, but by his father and mother.

58
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: He threw his arms around his father and as he

59
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: left the home plate area. His mother came running across

60
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: the grass, threw her arms around his neck, kissed him

61
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: for all she was worth. Vince Scully on Hank Aaron,

62
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: A couple of things jump out. Number one. I mean

63
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: this was which you know, feels like fifty years ago. Um,

64
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 1: the roar of the crowd is not something we've heard

65
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 1: in sports over the last year. I will say I

66
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 1: am very excited for fans to get back in stadiums

67
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,679
Speaker 1: for sporting events because that deafening roar, it's just awesome.

68
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 1: Like you know, I can totally see the Chiefs getting

69
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 1: a sweet touchdown this weekend and you hear the smattering

70
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 1: of fans cheering and the piped in noise, But there

71
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 1: isn't anything like the authentic, vibrant fan screaming at an

72
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:44,160
Speaker 1: awesome touchdown. Um, we missed that in sports. We're gonna

73
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: have it back in second man. I that's a phenomenal

74
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 1: call by the legendary Vince Scully. Been a tough go

75
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:56,679
Speaker 1: lately for baseball fans, particularly Dodger One's given the recent

76
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,039
Speaker 1: passing a Tommy Losorda. But I just wanted to touch

77
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 1: on Hank Aaron at the outside of the show a

78
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 1: real legend um and uh, by all accounts, a really

79
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 1: good man. I would recommend The New York Times oh

80
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 1: bit if you, uh you know, have a subscription and

81
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 1: want to read. It's a pretty detailed breakdown of his life.

82
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: Just a incredible career for Hank Aaron. All Right, it's

83
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 1: time to get to football and two really good games Sunday.

84
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 1: I don't know how we're gonna spend our Saturday, Gavin,

85
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,479
Speaker 1: have you given it much thought? What the hell are

86
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 1: you gonna do? This is where you make up for

87
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 1: all the time you've missed during the season with the

88
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 1: with the wife or girlfriends. So do stuff around the house,

89
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 1: go shopping. The honeydow list is lengthening. I will say this.

90
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: It's raining out here in Los Angeles today, so not

91
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 1: only do you have to stay inside, but there's no

92
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 1: football to watch. I mean, I guess you could. I

93
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 1: suppose you could dive into college hoops, but um, you

94
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 1: know you're gonna need to do some homework. College basketball

95
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 1: very tough go for the sport again, similar to what

96
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 1: we've seen in college football, just a ton of COVID

97
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 1: impact did games just not showing up with the schedule,

98
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 1: I have no idea what the NBA schedule is. Maybe

99
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 1: there's a big NFL trade Deshaun Watson, you know, we

100
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 1: have one more coaching higher. But otherwise it's a quiet

101
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: Saturday and then Sunday. You know, depending on where you're

102
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: on the country, you gotta wait a little bit for

103
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: the a f C, NFC championship games. Brady Rodgers is first,

104
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: followed by UM Chiefs versus the Bills, and I want

105
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 1: I thought about it. You know, the two rematch angle

106
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: is interesting, but essentially we have the four m VP candidates,

107
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 1: all of them quarterbacks, left in the playoffs. And I

108
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:39,840
Speaker 1: looked a little further and I did talk about this

109
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: on Straight Fire earlier this week by Daily podcast. I'm

110
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:46,480
Speaker 1: sure you've heard about it. Um. If you look at

111
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,040
Speaker 1: the teams that are left, and you look at the

112
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 1: highest ranked offensive efficiency teams in the league, four the

113
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 1: last five remaining teams our top five in offense, sorry,

114
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 1: the top the fourth remaining teams are in the top

115
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 1: five for offense. But if you look at defense, must

116
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 1: not nearly the case one in the top ten. Defense

117
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 1: doesn't really matter. And that's why I've been pounding the

118
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: table from my Jets to get an offensive minded coach.

119
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 1: We'll get to the coaching moves later. Obviously, Gavin's Chargers

120
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: make a big move with Brandon Staley. I don't hate

121
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 1: the Robert Salah or Brandon Staley hires, although they aren't

122
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 1: offensive guys. But I should add Brandon Staley was a

123
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 1: quarterback in his time, UM defensive coach with an offensive mindset. Yeah.

124
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 1: His By the way, Staley's press conference was pretty impressive.

125
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 1: Some of the stuff he was saying. If you're a

126
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: Chargers fan, you've got to get excited. You guys are

127
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: gonna be a contender real quick. Jets, we don't quite

128
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: have the pieces in place. UM, but when you look

129
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 1: at the four teams left, I was looking at kind

130
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 1: of what's at stake for each of the four teams. Right,

131
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: we know what's at stake for Brady. I mean, the

132
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: guy already has six rings. If he is able to

133
00:07:54,840 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 1: go to the Buccaneers and in one year vault them,

134
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 1: Remember they have made the playoffs and I believe twelve

135
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: years they have made a conference championship game since like

136
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: two thousand two. If Brady is able to go there

137
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: in the first year and then get to the Super

138
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: Bowl and win the damn thing. Like, I mean, Tom

139
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: Brady is the records already impeccable. You can't really say

140
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: anything negative about Tom Brady three years old. He's done

141
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: everything right. Yeah, he's had a couple of scandals with

142
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: the deflated balls and what have you, But come on, man,

143
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 1: the guy is greatness personified. Tom Brady goes to the

144
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 1: NFC and is instantly in the NFC title game. Like,

145
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: I think, he's just amazing. Remember he's played twenty seasons,

146
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 1: but you remove one for the a c l injury

147
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:48,079
Speaker 1: in the first week fourteen of the nineteen seasons, he's

148
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 1: been in the conference championship game. At some point it's like, wow,

149
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 1: you know Belichick was important, the system in New England

150
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 1: was important. Damn Tom Brady is just freaking good. Now

151
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 1: for Aaron Rodgers, I think the stakes are a little

152
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 1: bit higher, if that's possible. We're talking about a guy

153
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,080
Speaker 1: who has all the tools, had to sit behind Brett

154
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 1: Farvan waste a couple of years, and I think many

155
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:17,719
Speaker 1: would agree on sheer talent alone, Aaron Rodgers is a

156
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 1: top five quarterback all time. Now, some people are gonna say, well,

157
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 1: John Elway is up there. Uh and Peyton Manning's one

158
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: of the most probably the most cerebral. But I think

159
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,679
Speaker 1: you've got a strong argument for Aaron Rodgers as the

160
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 1: most talented quarterback of all time. Is the first time

161
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 1: he's hosting and NFC title game first time. Maybe Rogers

162
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,839
Speaker 1: wasn't holding the Packers back all these years. Maybe it

163
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 1: was McCarthy. So the opposite is true with Brady Belichick.

164
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 1: Belichick got a lot of credit, obviously, but Aaron Rodgers

165
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: didn't get as much. I wonder. I mean, McCarthy had

166
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 1: a disastrous year in Dallas, Okay, I know they were

167
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 1: kind of in the playoff hunt um towards the end

168
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: of the season. They law stack, But it's not like McCarthy,

169
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,599
Speaker 1: you know, improved his standing as a head coach with

170
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 1: this past season. So Aaron Rodgers a lot now, Josh Allen,

171
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 1: I think you could say has the biggest burden on

172
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 1: his shoulders this weekend. Right, the city of Buffalo just

173
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:19,080
Speaker 1: starved for a championship. They haven't been to a super

174
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:25,439
Speaker 1: Bowl in a generation. Three was the last time. I mean,

175
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,839
Speaker 1: we're looking at twenty eight years since they've been to

176
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 1: a super Bowl, and it's tough because Alan played his

177
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 1: last two games at home, they had a bit of

178
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 1: a home field advantage. The defense lucked out a little

179
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 1: bit right getting all these stops and I'm using air

180
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 1: quotes as I say stops. The Colts and Ravens combined

181
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: to go to for eight in the red zone against

182
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:49,839
Speaker 1: the Bills, and folks, if you go watch the games,

183
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 1: it wasn't anything the Bills specifically we're doing. There was

184
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 1: some luck involved. Okay, this stat's crazy. Eleven trips inside

185
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:06,079
Speaker 1: the Bill's thirty so far in the playoffs, three missed

186
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,720
Speaker 1: field goals, four turnovers, so seven of the eleven trips

187
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:13,000
Speaker 1: inside the buffalo thirty of results at no points come on.

188
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: That cannot continue. I do like the over in Chiefs Bills.

189
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 1: I think I'm the only one. A lot of people

190
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: are on the under there um. But finally we've got

191
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,679
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes. And you know, even if you're a die

192
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,319
Speaker 1: hard NFL fan, and we talked NFL NFL on this

193
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 1: show so often, I think it's tough to imagine a

194
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: scenario like this for a guy like Pat Mahomes, who

195
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,679
Speaker 1: remember the Chiefs had to trade up to ten to

196
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 1: get him, and there was you know, some mocking like,

197
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 1: what are we doing? We're trading up with we got

198
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 1: Alex Smith and we're drafting Patrick Mahomes. The hell are

199
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 1: they doing? He sits the first year as a backup

200
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 1: to Alex Smith, and in Patrick mahomes first season as

201
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:01,199
Speaker 1: a starting quarterback, he wins the MVP and loses to

202
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 1: the Patriots in the a f C Title Game at home.

203
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:07,120
Speaker 1: The second year, wins the Super Bowl, wins the Super

204
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,839
Speaker 1: Bowl MVP. Third year as a starter in the a

205
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 1: f C Title Game, hosting it again. I mean, I know,

206
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 1: we're looking at Brady and the group, the Goat and

207
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,960
Speaker 1: all that, and it's gonna be very difficult to match

208
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 1: what Brady has done numbers wise, But my gosh, Patrick

209
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:29,319
Speaker 1: Mahomes already making a really good case. He's twenty five

210
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: years old, that he's been to three straight an f

211
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 1: C title games, that he already is going to put

212
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 1: himself in the category of one of the greatest quarterbacks

213
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,439
Speaker 1: of all time. I mean, Kevin, how high can I

214
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,439
Speaker 1: put him? Let's say he wins two Super Bowls and

215
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: his first three years as a starter, is he automatically

216
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 1: a top ten quarterback all time? Or is that too

217
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 1: high because he has not the numbers. It's hard to say,

218
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 1: you know, because you think of guys like Terrell Davis, right,

219
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 1: who had short careers really high peaks. But you know,

220
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,679
Speaker 1: is Pat Mahomes already a Hall of Famer? Is you know?

221
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,199
Speaker 1: If it's hard to to put that on them, you

222
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 1: look at guys like Philip Rivers. The longevity is kind

223
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,439
Speaker 1: of what made him so great. So yeah, I mean

224
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 1: it's a listen, it's difficult to talk about greatness with

225
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 1: somebody's twenty five years old, but I think we can

226
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:17,439
Speaker 1: all see it barring a major injury. Right now, the

227
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 1: scary thing about concussions, which it doesn't sound like he

228
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,599
Speaker 1: actually had a concussion. Yeah, that's an interesting topic. I

229
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: don't know how we define that. But but the scary

230
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,439
Speaker 1: thing is, and you hear about this lot in fighting, Um,

231
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 1: when you do get one or you get knocked out,

232
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 1: it's a lot easier to have happened again. So hopefully

233
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 1: he never really had one and this won't be a

234
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: constant problem. That's a great point, you know, And I

235
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 1: wonder are the Chief's gonna take it a little easier

236
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,559
Speaker 1: on Mahomes because we know he's a really good running quarterback,

237
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:55,439
Speaker 1: dynamic outside the pocket. Andy Reid's system has a lot

238
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 1: of Hey, remember it's what was it, third and fifteen.

239
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 1: We're just gonna sending everybody deep and have Chad Henny

240
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 1: scramble for fourteen and a half yards setting up fourth

241
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:08,199
Speaker 1: and one. So I wonder are we not going to

242
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 1: see Mahomes running. He also has the toe injury, which

243
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 1: kind of feels bigger than the concussion, given the potential

244
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 1: for turf toe impacting map Ma Homes every time he

245
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 1: drops back. But man, this guy Patrick Mahomes is really

246
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 1: setting a new standard. Like I don't care what anybody

247
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 1: does across sports. You know, Patrick Mahomes is doing some

248
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 1: damn awesome things. And we'll wrap up with this. Here's

249
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 1: Andy Reid on Patrick Mahomes running the football. It's hard

250
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: to stop somebody from using their legs and running when

251
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 1: they when they choose to run. So if he can't

252
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,520
Speaker 1: do that, he's probably not gonna be able. He's probably

253
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: not passing protocol to be able to do that. So

254
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 1: you know, you don't want to put him out there.

255
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 1: If you can't, he's gonna be in. He can't move. Yeah,

256
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 1: it's not quite Kyler Murray banged up as he was

257
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 1: the season and refusing to run. This is more of

258
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: are we going to call as many designed runs with

259
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 1: Mahomes and the other injury he does have the toe

260
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 1: im So massive games Sunday afternoon. The ratings are going

261
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 1: to be ridiculous for Rogers Brady first meeting in the

262
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 1: postseason of all time ever. Um, we'll have picks a

263
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 1: little bit later and a chiefs writer, a chiefs beat

264
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 1: writer coming on the show a little bit later. UM,

265
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 1: I do think I like the favorites. I'm leaning toward

266
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 1: the favorites, not to cover, but maybe just in a

267
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 1: money line parlay. But we will give out Gambly winners

268
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 1: later for sure. But first I gotta say, coming up

269
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 1: next year on Fox Sports Radio, We're gonna take a

270
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 1: moment and make fun of the Brooklyn Nets, just because

271
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 1: there's so much meat on that bone and it's kind

272
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 1: of listen, it's early season NBA. We can find some

273
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 1: jokes in it. We'll talk about Kyrie and the Nets

274
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 1: getting smashed by Cleveland. Um, we will go later in

275
00:15:59,920 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 1: the show. There's some Bradley Beald trade shatter out there.

276
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 1: Of course, Lebron's greatness continues, but it'll be a heavy

277
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 1: NFL show, So keep it locked here on Fox Sports Radio.

278
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 1: Call on Farmers and you could save on your auto insurance.

279
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:16,400

00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 1: post got any likes. Again, call one eight Farmers to

281

Speaker 1: Called one Farmers to switch and you could save a

286
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 1: bundle on your auto insurance. Gavin just reminded me we

287
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 1: have Connor McGregor tonight fighting. I have no idea. Justin Pourier,

288
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 1: who he beat a few years ago, You're gonna have

289
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 1: to give me the breakdown on that. I mean, I

290
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,760
Speaker 1: haven't seen UFC in months. A couple of strikers. Look,

291
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 1: I think this is the thing. Last time on her

292
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 1: fought was this time last year? So are we Is

293
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:05,680
Speaker 1: this going to be what we have now? Because he

294
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:07,880
Speaker 1: was supposed to be more active, He was supposed to fight,

295
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,640
Speaker 1: you know, three times four times a year. I thought

296
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 1: he retired he had retired and then he came back

297
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:16,120
Speaker 1: out and he fought and he said, hey, I'm gonna

298
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 1: be really active. And but the thing is with Connors,

299
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: he definitely likes guys to come to him. He doesn't

300
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 1: want to chase down those guys because right now he's

301
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 1: not the top ranked fighter right he's not the welterweight champion.

302
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 1: He's not he doesn't have all the accolades as as

303
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:34,640
Speaker 1: of right now. So maybe this will be the path back. Um,

304
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 1: he is a favorite to win. I'm expecting a great fight,

305
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,840
Speaker 1: but a quick finish I think from Connor McGregor. So

306
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 1: you're gonna get the fight, I think. So it's a

307
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 1: little it's harder now because he used to be he

308
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:50,640
Speaker 1: get buddies together. Yeah, and you know with the price

309
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: tag on the ease and yeah, we're still not We're

310
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 1: not there yet, you know. So, but I do plan

311
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: to watch it. Let me just say, yeah, I will say, uh,

312
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,480
Speaker 1: given you know, you get to get together as with friends.

313
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 1: We uh I we do know some people who've gotten

314
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 1: the vaccine out here, some front line workers and secondary

315
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 1: front line workers. And I'm I'm just i gotta get

316
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,520
Speaker 1: the damn thing I needed I mean, I'm obviously not

317
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 1: a front line worker. I have essential you know, not really,

318
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 1: but I am essential seriously, um, and uh, I'm excited

319
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: to get it and get this show on the road.

320
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 1: You know, we just we were gonna go away because

321
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 1: the kids out here have this thing called ski Week,

322
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 1: which we've never heard of growing up on the East Coast,

323
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 1: but they have it in California, in parts of California,

324
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: and you know, we're like, oh, finally we'll get the

325
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 1: hell out of here. Yes, okay, And now l A

326
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 1: County is like, listen, if you leave the state, when

327
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 1: you come back, you have a ten DA quarantine and

328
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:47,920
Speaker 1: that means you can't send your kids to school. And

329
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,879
Speaker 1: we're like close to sending our kids to school, you know,

330
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 1: my my younger when the second grader is going to

331
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 1: be doing like three days a week in the middle

332
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:58,440
Speaker 1: of February. So we can't go. We can't do a

333
00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,920
Speaker 1: pop down to Cabo or try to go to Hawaiian

334
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 1: none of that. I can't do it. Uh. And it's man,

335
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 1: I gotta say so. Now Gavin the wife is like,

336
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,200
Speaker 1: we could go skiing for a couple of days, and

337
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,920
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, that doesn't appeal to me. I just, oh,

338
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:16,119
Speaker 1: you're not a snow guy. Held on, Hey, I can

339
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 1: like I moved out here to get away from this.

340
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, I mean, jeezush. Yeah. Anyway, So so now

341
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 1: we're having that discussion, I will confess I'm probably gonna

342
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 1: lose that battle, um because the wife wants the kids

343
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 1: to know how to ski, and I'm like, that's fine,

344
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,159
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go out. I just I don't need

345
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 1: to get an injury. I'm not great at it. Um.

346
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,639
Speaker 1: There is a great COVID story coming out of Dubai

347
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 1: where this UFC two seventies. If you want some some

348
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: break time reading, look up Ottman as Atar. He is

349
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 1: a fighter who was just released by the UFC for

350
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 1: violating COVID protocols. Very interesting story though, because basically he

351
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,160
Speaker 1: all the fighters were given a wristband, you know, kind

352
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: of the tracking thing, and he cut off his wristband

353
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 1: and gave it to someone outside the bubble. That person

354
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 1: taped it together, came inside, and there's a weird story

355
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,879
Speaker 1: about him jumping on balcony's and it's very strange. We

356
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 1: might even have the sound of Dana White in the system.

357
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:17,920
Speaker 1: I think we have on earth would this guy do that?

358
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 1: He and his team cut off their wristbands, gave him

359
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,439
Speaker 1: to somebody outside the bubble. I don't know how they

360
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 1: even did it. That guy taped him, showed up here

361
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:34,399
Speaker 1: with a bag, went into a room, shimmied across four balconies.

362
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:38,879
Speaker 1: When in his room, dropped the bag off, changed his clothes,

363
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,640
Speaker 1: and then left. Now when security try to stop him,

364
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:48,200
Speaker 1: he wouldn't stop either way. And yeah, it's just that

365
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:52,239
Speaker 1: he's gone. He's no longer a UFC fighter and uh,

366
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 1: he's not fighting to night. Wow, what was in the bag, Jason?

367
00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 1: Hopefully nothing bad Man's gracious. That is um slightly terrifying.

368
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 1: But these are terrifying times, um, very strange. These are

369
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 1: the days where I have so many tabs on my

370
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,360
Speaker 1: computer of stories that I have to read that it's

371
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:13,959
Speaker 1: like they're I don't know when you're gonna read them,

372
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: because I have this and we'll get into it later.

373
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if anybody's heard of whoop. I had

374
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 1: never heard of it. Chris Scavengers of it as a

375
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,960
Speaker 1: sponsor on something else. So essentially, it's this wrist band

376
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,640
Speaker 1: that you wear that tracks your heart, raid and your

377
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,719
Speaker 1: sleep and your recovery and all that stuff, and are

378
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 1: you working hard enough exercise wise? And I got it

379
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 1: from my birthday and I'm like, okay, and now you're

380
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 1: wearing it and you're more incentivized to get more sleep

381
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 1: because it's it's saying, last night, Jason, you slept, you

382
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 1: had like five hours and thirty eight minutes of good sleep,

383
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 1: and you're like, what, that's not good. They're telling you

384
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,920
Speaker 1: that's not good. You need to sleep more. Um, and

385
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:55,680
Speaker 1: and you want to go to bed earlier, but there's

386
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,680
Speaker 1: just so much to read and watch. Um yeah, there's

387
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 1: just not enough time in the day. But with football over, folks, yes,

388
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,439
Speaker 1: finally I will have time to dive into it. Oh

389
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 1: my gosh, we're late on Yeah, you know what. We'll

390
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 1: come back with Kyrine in a second, Kyrie and the

391
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:13,640
Speaker 1: Nets lose again. But first, um, and we'll talk about

392
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:15,680
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson. I don't know if you guys heard, he

393
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: is a little bit ticked off in Houston. But we'll

394
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 1: do that. But first you Ralph Irvine with what's trending

395
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,879
Speaker 1: in sports? Well, thank you very much, Jason. Yeah, we're

396
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 1: a day away from the a f C and NFC

397
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:30,680
Speaker 1: championship games, so we can still talk some NBA basketball,

398
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,200
Speaker 1: where the Clippers are now tied with the Lakers for

399
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 1: the best record in the NBA. L A winning their

400
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 1: sixth straight Friday Night over Oklahoma City six KWHI. Leonard

Speaker 1: thirty one points, Paul George has twenty nine, Joel Embied

402
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:48,200
Speaker 1: at thirty eight points, eleven rebounds. The six years outscore

403
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 1: Boston one ten, Philadelphia now nine and one at home

404
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,399
Speaker 1: this season. Trey Young forty three points in Atlanta, soared

405
00:22:56,480 --> 00:23:01,640
Speaker 1: through Minnesota one. Clinton Capella ten blocks in that game

406
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: for the Hawks. Colin or Colin Saxon twenty five points

407
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:09,920
Speaker 1: that led the Cavaliers over the Nets. Cleveland second straight

408
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 1: win over Brooklyn, Brooklyn's second straight loss. Since the return

409
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,680
Speaker 1: of Kyrie Irving to the lineup, Luca Donche has scored

410
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,119
Speaker 1: thirty six he out of eleven assist Alice one. In

411
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:24,960
Speaker 1: San Antonio one seventeen, Malcolm brockden a late three lifted

412
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:30,119

00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:39,199
Speaker 1: Lavine twenty five points, leading the Bulls past Charlotte one

416
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 1: one ten. As we sent it back now to Jason McIntyre.

417
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:48,200
Speaker 1: Thank you, Ralph Irvin. Uh, it's me Jason McIntyre live

418
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,639
Speaker 1: from the Farmers Insurance Fox Sports Radio Studios called on

419
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 1: Farmers and you could save a whole lot of something

420
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:59,680
Speaker 1: on auto insurance. Alright. So Kyrie Irving and the nets

421
00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:03,800
Speaker 1: for of all. Kyrie returns from his UM two weeks sabbatical.

422
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:08,720
Speaker 1: If you will, um and listen, it's easy. It's low

423
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 1: hanging fruit to just go after Kyrie and mock him.

424
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 1: I've done that. It's easy. UM. I went a little deeper,

425
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 1: a little next level, thinking, you know what, Kyrie is

426
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 1: a bit of a lost soul right now. He is.

427
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 1: That's nothing wrong with that. UM trying to find himself

428
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 1: or something like that at age eight and and he's

429
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,920
Speaker 1: going through some stuff, doesn't really know who he is

430
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:32,920
Speaker 1: or where he is or where what is his place

431
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 1: in society? With all this money he's making, he's doing

432
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,680
Speaker 1: nice things off the court, UM, helping out folks, but

433
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 1: he's not really helping out his teammates. So Kyrie returns

434
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,359
Speaker 1: and then he's got to work with James Harden and

435
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:49,159
Speaker 1: then Kevin Durant sat out last night. So this is

436
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 1: a staggering stat that try to take it in. The

437
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 1: Nets have allowed a hundred and thirty four points in

438
00:24:55,600 --> 00:25:01,200
Speaker 1: the paint over the last two games, most in any

439
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 1: two games span over the last twenty five seasons. Here's

440
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:11,159
Speaker 1: the problem. It came against the Cavaliers. The Calves are

441
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:16,680
Speaker 1: a disaster. They're awful. And consider this, they scored a

442
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 1: hundred and forty seven points the Calves did against the Nets,

443
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 1: and a hundred and last night. Before that, they had

444
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 1: gone nine straight games under a hundred points and then

445
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 1: they had a hundred six and then they just explode

446
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,880
Speaker 1: against the Nets who have no interior defense. And we've

447
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,439
Speaker 1: seen this before, teams that think, oh, we'll just win

448
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,399
Speaker 1: with our offense and we get to the playoffs and

449
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 1: we'll just outscore people. Listen, it's early for the Nets.

450
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna you know, I'm not digging the grave

451
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:48,680
Speaker 1: and getting it ready to just fire them in there.

452
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 1: They're obviously going to figure things out, but it is

453
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 1: embarrassing to watch, like Kyrie doesn't play any d giving

454
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,720
Speaker 1: away Jared Allen and that the trade to get hard

455
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:01,880
Speaker 1: and really hurt. Essentially, they're playing DeAndre Jordan at center.

456
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 1: Jeff Green is like the backup center, and Kevin Durant

457
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 1: is another big guy. That's it like it's it's bleak

458
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:14,120
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna add this and Gavin we we haven't

459
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,480
Speaker 1: done much on it. So NBA ratings in the bubble

460
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 1: were terrible. They were abysmal. But Christmas Day ratings were

461
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: up significantly for the NBA and MLK Day ratings for

462
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,880
Speaker 1: the NBA were up as well. So as bad as

463
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,720
Speaker 1: the basketball has been, there's nobody playing any defense. If

464
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:34,639
Speaker 1: you're betting the NBA right now, all you're betting is

465
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:38,159
Speaker 1: overs because there's a cashing at a ridiculous clip. But

466
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 1: the return of Steph Curry, Kevin Durant, the trade of

467
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 1: James harden Um. We we now have Zion back, We

468
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 1: have Luca don Chech. What's he gonna do next? Like

469
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 1: the young players and the stars in the league, people

470
00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 1: are tuning in for now. The games themselves have been bad,

471
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:01,120
Speaker 1: and that's why I just wanted to spend a couple

472
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 1: of minutes kind of bashing the nets. They're gonna figure

473
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:04,679
Speaker 1: it out and they're gonna be They're gonna go through

474
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 1: a streak where they win like ten twelve games in

475
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:08,960
Speaker 1: a row, and everybody's gonna say, let's crowd him. But

476
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 1: just remember this, they're gonna be going up against potentially

477
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,200
Speaker 1: and beat in the East, and the honest as well.

478
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 1: Who takes the final shot? Whoever's open. I don't think

479
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:29,640
Speaker 1: that's a good I think it should be Katie. Yeah. Well,

480
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 1: I mean the weird thing is, like James Harden is

481
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 1: totally differing right now. If you guys are watching, Kyrie

482
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 1: is taking way more shots than him, and Harden's kind

483
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 1: of in the point guard roule, but Kyrie Irving's out

484
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 1: like a shooting guard. He's like six one. They've got

485
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:46,640
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff to figure out. The tough part

486
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 1: is Steve Nash has never been a head coach before,

487
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 1: and it ain't gonna be easy figuring this out. Luckily,

488
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,119
Speaker 1: he's still got what fifty where they they're nine and

489
00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,159
Speaker 1: seven and they're doing seventy two games, so they got

490
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 1: like forty games left to figure things out. Something. Maybe

491
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 1: my math is off there for yeah, And and it's

492
00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:07,719
Speaker 1: the NBA, so they'll get in the playoffs. Like everyone

493
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:11,400
Speaker 1: pretty much gets in the magical win the first game

494
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 1: right of the seven game series, It'll be interesting, the

495
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 1: seating will be interesting, and like, will there be fans

496
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 1: in the stands? Come what is it April? I really

497
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,920
Speaker 1: hope so, because we saw that last year. Part of me,

498
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:30,439
Speaker 1: I do wonder these champions how much, especially in the NBA,

499
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:32,680
Speaker 1: the fans affect it. You know, you go to the

500
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 1: foul line, right, and that is like a staple of

501
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 1: the NBA postseason, having the fans getting your ears, and

502
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 1: you've seen Russell Westbrook get into it, and man, I

503
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 1: really want that aspect back. I don't want the bubble anymore.

504
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: I don't know if if if they're not going to

505
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:53,480
Speaker 1: have fans indoor, it's gonna be a rough postseason. And listen,

506
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 1: the COVID stuff in the NBA is really bad. Two

507
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,320
Speaker 1: games post boone last night. I don't know what they

508
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 1: do if there's an outbreak in the season, Like, you

509
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 1: can't push back the series, right, you just gotta go

510
00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:06,560
Speaker 1: with what you got. You gotta do a best of

511
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 1: five instead of best of seven. I don't know. I mean,

512
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:13,200
Speaker 1: you would think at that time in June you could

513
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 1: have every city that's hosting a series would have a

514
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 1: few thousand vaccinated fans, like we're gonna see at the

515
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 1: super Bowl, And you could do that even if it's

516
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 1: only five thousand fans. It's still in an auditory, you know,

517
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 1: in in an arena, you can still hear that. Well,

518
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:31,959
Speaker 1: I can tell you right now, Um, if I get

519
00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 1: the vaccination, I have go to a Lakers game. Yeah. Fun.

520
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 1: That would be like seeing I mean Lebron and a

521
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,960
Speaker 1: d in the playoffs against Listen, your just doing some things,

522
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 1: Luca playing well, you know they're going to hear the

523
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,360
Speaker 1: things that you're yelling at them. Oh yeah, No, I

524
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 1: would definitely go if I got the vaccine. Now, if

525
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 1: I didn't get it, I'm not going to a game. Um,

526
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 1: just I don't need that risk in my life. Anyways.

527
00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 1: I want to pivot quickly to back to the NFL

528
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,040
Speaker 1: and a story that came out yesterday, and I will

529
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 1: confess I was Mike. We've set up some fourth grade

530
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:11,080
Speaker 1: basketball games for outdoors, obviously for some of the kids. Um,

531
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 1: and we had it. And I get back inside and

532
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 1: I'm texting with Gavin. What are we gonna talk about?

533
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 1: And then he mentions something about McCown interviewing, and I

534
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 1: was like, wait, Josh McCown, the backup quarterback interviewing, And

535
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 1: then I had to google it and I'm like, oh

536
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 1: my gosh, this is where the Houston Texans are at

537
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 1: this point. They just interviewed Josh McCown, who finished a

538
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 1: playoff game this time last year for the Eagles. He

539
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 1: interviewed for the head coaching job. That's where Houston is.

540
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 1: And you guys want to know why Deshaun Watson wants

541
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:48,200
Speaker 1: out because a crap like that, I get outside the

542
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 1: box thinking, totally get Jim Callwell, they brought into UM.

543
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 1: But the idea that they're gonna bring in Josh McCown,

544
00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 1: who I think was a backup in in Houston this year,

545
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 1: I think he was aught on and yeah, he was

546
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 1: brought on as like the third stringer emergency quarterback. Watson

547
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 1: had been being dinged up a little bit and you know,

548
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 1: they wanted a third stringer just in case, and then

549
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:15,360
Speaker 1: they bring in Josh McCown to interview. Now, instantly I

550
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:17,040
Speaker 1: thought about this that I'm like, well, wait a second,

551
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 1: is it possible that Deshaun Watson is totally ghosting the

552
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 1: front office? UM? The owner who lied to him. And

553
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 1: maybe they're bringing in Josh McCown two see if he

554
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 1: has any intel on Deshaun Watson. And you know, um,

555
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 1: did you spend a lot of time together? You know,

556
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,160
Speaker 1: can you salvage Watson or whatever? Can you repair the relationship?

557
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 1: Like but they don't get it. Gavin Watson has made

558
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 1: it clear he doesn't want to be there. He asked

559
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,640
Speaker 1: the owner to his face. The owner asked him, hey,

560
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 1: give me some input, and then the owner said, oh,

561
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 1: thank you, and then the owner didn't take him up

562
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:59,360
Speaker 1: on an even I don't know if it's past the

563
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:03,080
Speaker 1: point of no return? Can they fix this? Is it salvageable?

564
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: And you know, I said this on Cowherd Show yesterday.

565
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:10,880
Speaker 1: Obviously the Jets make a lot of sense. The Jets

566
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 1: have extra draft picks. They can get this deal done.

567
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,040
Speaker 1: One team that I heard keep an eye on this

568
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 1: Jason was the Carolina Panthers. And I guess there is

569
00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 1: a sense that Watson wouldn't mind returning home. And of

570
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 1: course he grew up in Georgia, but only like I

571
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 1: think it's like four hours away from uh Charlotte where

572
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 1: Carolina plays, so it would be kind of a going

573
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 1: home of sorts. Um. And if you look at Carolina,

574
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:42,960
Speaker 1: they have a young, good coach in Matt Rule. They've

575
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,959
Speaker 1: got a lot of offensive weapons with McCaffrey and uh

576
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 1: Robby Anderson, and he would thrive in that offense. The

577
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 1: only thing is, I don't know if Carolina has the appetite,

578
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,640
Speaker 1: given they are run by a new owner who's a

579
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 1: big analytics guy. I think they made all his money

580
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 1: in tech. Is their front office willing to give up

581
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 1: a boatload of picks for Deshaun Watson? My guests would

582
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 1: be Matt Rule would jump at that to heartbeat. I

583
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 1: looked at the roster the Caroline Panthers don't have one

584
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:16,120
Speaker 1: player from Clemson. Um, I don't know that that would matter,

585
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 1: But I'm just saying I had heard that he has

586
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:21,720
Speaker 1: an interest in going back home. Does that mean he

587
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 1: doesn't want to go to the Jets or the Dolphins. No,

588
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 1: of course not. I how it usually works in NFL

589
00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:32,400
Speaker 1: circles is you know here, Well, this guy's would love

590
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,960
Speaker 1: to go here. He may sign with this team and

591
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 1: it either definitely happens or it's a team that's never

592
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 1: been mentioned. Um, Because you guys know how the NFL

593
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 1: news machine works, right. The agents really control a lot

594
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,800
Speaker 1: of it, and the teams have been super buttoned up

595
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:55,760
Speaker 1: because remember, nobody had Josh McCown interviewing with the Texas.

596
00:33:56,240 --> 00:34:00,880
Speaker 1: Nobody had the Eagles hiring this kid, Nick Sirianni. Everybody

597
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 1: was like, oh, Josh McDaniels, Josh McDaniels. Um, they kind

598
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 1: of everybody early had Robert Sala ticketed to the Lions.

599
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 1: I don't think Gavin you could correct me on this.

600
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,799
Speaker 1: Did Was Brandon Staley linked to the Chargers a lot? Yeah,

601
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 1: we had heard about two interviews, but the hiring was

602
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,920
Speaker 1: really quick. I mean it was right after that second interview.

603
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 1: Brian dave Ball was supposed to go to the Chargers

604
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 1: by everything we had heard about, and and they, you know,

605
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:31,800
Speaker 1: Mick Staley, which was a little bit of a surprise.

606
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:33,959
Speaker 1: My thought is, and it's kind of like when Sean

607
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,839
Speaker 1: McVeigh interviewed a few years ago, Like they went, they

608
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:38,919
Speaker 1: had the interviews and went, we can't let this guy

609
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 1: go because he's going to get hired somewhere else. That's

610
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:45,399
Speaker 1: a good feeling if you are that interview uh guy

611
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,640
Speaker 1: who crushes interviews and they want to hire you instantly.

612
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:49,479
Speaker 1: All right. Coming up next year on Fox Sports Radio,

613
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:53,960
Speaker 1: one team that did not get to the Conference Championship

614
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:58,360
Speaker 1: Round is about to go through a massive rebuild and

615
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 1: it probably won't be pretty. I'll tell you who that

616
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:04,520

Speaker 1: using your phone to see if your post got any likes. Again,

622
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:24,879
Speaker 1: was growing up, my parents and me and my brother

623
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 1: would always spend New Year's Eve with our friends who

624
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:30,799
Speaker 1: would have like a New Year's Eve party and all

625
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, I'll never forget the New Year's Eve

626
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 1: where the Bengals played, and like I was obviously smitten

627
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,320
Speaker 1: with I guess is it is it to Chris two Bengals.

628
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 1: Women who are in that group walk like an Egyptian

629
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 1: or is it? I think it's three three, okay? And

630
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:50,759
Speaker 1: I was just like glued to the TV looking at

631
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 1: these gorgeous girls singing and dancing and it's like a

632
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 1: good vibe song and like they were playing the Dick

633
00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,560
Speaker 1: Clark's Rocket New Year's Eve. So I I like this

634
00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,279
Speaker 1: on the and it always brings me back to my youth.

635
00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 1: That music is cool like that. It just always does

636
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 1: that for me to be. Jason McIntyre live from the

637
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:13,600
Speaker 1: Farmer's Insurance Fox Sports Radio Studios call Farmers Today for

638
00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:17,800
Speaker 1: a quote. Went to Twitter during the commercial break, just briefly,

639
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 1: of course, some guy. The Calves are fifth in the East.

640
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:24,719
Speaker 1: I think I called them a disaster and a dumpster fire.

641
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:28,920
Speaker 1: Look closer at the standings, buddy, they are two games

642
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:34,000
Speaker 1: from the East is basically first class, which would be

643
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,360
Speaker 1: the seventies sixers right now, and the Bucks are like

644
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 1: right behind them. And then there's I think ten, ten,

645
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,360
Speaker 1: maybe nine teams jumbled and then at the bottom Charlotte

646
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:49,279
Speaker 1: and Detroit, and Detroit's really bad this year. Um, So

647
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 1: just relax, folks. I love how people just hear something

648
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,719
Speaker 1: and want to jump on social media to try to

649
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:59,400
Speaker 1: correct you sample size. Calves fifth in the East. All right,

650
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 1: Let's get to a team that in the NFL I'm

651
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:06,280
Speaker 1: worried about. So over the last three seasons, including the playoffs,

652
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,560
Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints are second in the NFL and

653
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 1: wins with thirty nine Kansas Cities first. Saints are second

654
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:22,800
Speaker 1: last three years. And I'm not screaming this into a bullhorn.

655
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:26,239
Speaker 1: It's over. The Saints are done. The dynasty's over. But

656
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:29,800
Speaker 1: I'm pretty close to it. I have confiscated the bullhorn

657
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:33,960
Speaker 1: and I'm ready to shout into it. Um whatever you

658
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 1: want to say about their postseasons, unlucky, bad calls, it's over.

659
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:46,720
Speaker 1: Like they had their chances. There was the Minnesota miracle,

660
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 1: the bad um non past interfear, it's called in the

661
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:56,160
Speaker 1: Rams game. Yeah, the Vikings pulled one out last year.

662
00:37:56,280 --> 00:38:00,680
Speaker 1: There was m Drew Brees throwing three pick in his

663
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 1: own end, costing me some serious coin this past weekend.

664
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,360
Speaker 1: And and Gavin, you know, I know you love gambling.

665
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:09,640
Speaker 1: I'll say this, I will still go to the grave

666
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:13,160
Speaker 1: saying yeah, I would bet the Saints again in that spot.

667
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,759
Speaker 1: I know it did cross through from three to two

668
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,879
Speaker 1: and a half late in the day before kickoff, meaning

669
00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:21,399
Speaker 1: there was a lot of bucks money. But I still

670
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:25,560
Speaker 1: watch that game and said, man, Saints were basically the

671
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:29,000
Speaker 1: better team. I thought, if Drew Brees doesn't throw three

672
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 1: interceptions at his own end, Jared cook up a touchdown

673
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:37,439
Speaker 1: fumbles in Tampa territory. Yeah, I mean it's it goes

674
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:39,799
Speaker 1: without saying that Drew Brees cost him the game, which

675
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 1: is why it's hard to picture him going out like that,

676
00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:46,919
Speaker 1: especially at home. Well, I don't see him returning. And financially,

677
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,880
Speaker 1: there was a breakdown that said the Saints have to

678
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:55,879
Speaker 1: reduce more than ninety million of their payroll to get

679
00:38:55,960 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 1: to uh the salary cap numbers. And given the pandemic,

680
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 1: if the salary cap dips, Saints are even in more trouble.

681
00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:10,080
Speaker 1: I mean, it is really bleak. My guess is Taysom

682
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:12,799
Speaker 1: Hill is the guy next year, and Jameis Winston gets

683
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:16,040
Speaker 1: an offer elsewhere, and you're gonna see that Saints defense,

684
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:19,680
Speaker 1: which was very good, probably lose like four or five starters.

685
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 1: Michael Thomas doesn't seem happy. It seems like he knows

686
00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,960
Speaker 1: the end is near. I'm just telling you. Like the

687
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints awesome run appears to be over. It

688
00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:36,040
Speaker 1: feels like a rap. And I'm curious as to what

689
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:40,920
Speaker 1: Sean Payton will do because this rebuild. It's tough to

690
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:43,480
Speaker 1: rebuild on the fly in the NFL, especially without a quarterback.

691
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:48,279
Speaker 1: I like Sean Payton as much as the next guy. Okay, Like,

692
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 1: I don't know how he turns Taysom Hill into a

693
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,759
Speaker 1: we're gonna We're gonna be a playoff contender without a

694
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 1: defense behind him. Um. Also in this Saint story, Sean

695
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 1: Payton apparently tried to move up in seen to draft

696
00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:06,920
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes um. And obviously the Chiefs were aware of that,

697
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 1: and they definitely were able to get my homes. But

698
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,040
Speaker 1: if you're a New Orleans Saints fan, hey, you guys

699
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 1: just had an incredible run. Okay, my Jets haven't made

700
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 1: the playoffs in a decade. Enjoy it. It's over. Drew

701
00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:20,359
Speaker 1: Brees apparently he's headed to a retirement where he will

702
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:23,840
Speaker 1: go to the phone booth. Not the phone booth, the

703
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,359
Speaker 1: announcing booth. Uh. So, good luck to Drew Brees. Coming

704

00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 1: average a four hundred and seventy dollars on auto insurance.

710
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:54,719
Speaker 1: That's a lot of money for a quick phone call,

711
00:40:54,800 --> 00:41:01,400
Speaker 1: don't you think average nationwide annual savings survey data July

712
00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:09,560
Speaker 1: to December. We are all right? During football season. We'd

713
00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 1: like to bring in our guy to talk gambling. And uh,

714
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 1: there's only two games this weekend. Really stinks. This season

715
00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 1: is nearly over. But hopefully he will maybe toss a

716
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,560
Speaker 1: prop at us a total. I have a couple of props.

717
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:24,600
Speaker 1: I'm interested and I'll bounce him off of him. But

718
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:28,239
Speaker 1: t A from Sharp Football Analysis dot Com t A,

719
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:31,319
Speaker 1: how are you? Man? What's up? Jason? How you doing? Yeah?

720
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,000
Speaker 1: I'm hanging in there. You know, a little rain out

721
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 1: here in California. Today's stinks? How is how's life with

722
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 1: the wife and the kid in the new house. Everything's great,

723
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 1: although it is sad that football season is coming to

724
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:45,160
Speaker 1: an end. You know when I have to switch out

725
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:49,959
Speaker 1: spending seven hours watching football on Sundays in my little

726
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,880
Speaker 1: office and you know, having to find more time for

727
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,680
Speaker 1: my wife and daughter. Are you gonna do a lot

728
00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:59,239
Speaker 1: of college hoops this? Uh? This off season? Are you

729
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:02,759
Speaker 1: gonna do some NB? He I I'm just curious. It's

730
00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:05,239
Speaker 1: hard because normally this would be the time of year

731
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,839
Speaker 1: that you know, maybe I start, um, you know, doing

732
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:09,440
Speaker 1: a little bit more of that. But just with with

733
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:12,360
Speaker 1: all the COVID issues and just you know, the NBA

734
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:15,200
Speaker 1: and there's just it's I'm I'm a guy that relies

735
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:18,040
Speaker 1: on modeling and stats and if you've got so much

736
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:20,960
Speaker 1: incomplete information because some games that the you know, star

737
00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:23,920
Speaker 1: players and playing and you know guys are in a lineup,

738
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,960
Speaker 1: it's just really hard to do that. So you know,

739
00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:30,320
Speaker 1: when I do something, it's just really specific to like,

740
00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,279
Speaker 1: I really like this this number here for for whatever reason.

741
00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,719
Speaker 1: It's very specific driven. And then you know, obviously when

742
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,399
Speaker 1: attorney comes around, I'll uh dive in a little bit more.

743
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:42,120
Speaker 1: But for now, it's just it's very sporadic for me. Yeah.

744
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 1: So for instance, Thursday, USC was playing Stanford and I

745
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,319
Speaker 1: know some people from USC, and somebody texts and me, hey, man,

746
00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:53,880
Speaker 1: uh Zayre Williams is not playing for Stanford, And I

747
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:55,720
Speaker 1: was like, what what happened? You know, there's a COVID

748
00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 1: and I instant, first, this is the new Jason Well,

749
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:01,400
Speaker 1: I've been doing this for a little bit. Instantly go

750
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:06,000
Speaker 1: and make a wager on USC. And the line starts

751
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:09,359
Speaker 1: creeping up, moving and then you hear uh COVID say

752
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:12,839
Speaker 1: Zaire Williams. But then they canceled the game, and you're like, man,

753
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 1: I just wasted all that, Like I was all excited

754
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,320
Speaker 1: and like, you're right. COVID has really been brutal for

755
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:20,360
Speaker 1: college sports. But thankfully we have two games in the

756
00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 1: NFL this weekend. Uh, let's get started. First of all,

757
00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,840
Speaker 1: do you like a side in either game? It looks

758
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:31,239
Speaker 1: like Green Bay's painted at three and a half and uh,

759
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:33,839
Speaker 1: Kansas City's three three and a half, but it looks

760
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,439
Speaker 1: like it's probably gonna be a three and a half. Yeah,

761
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:38,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I think at the time of year, you

762
00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:41,160
Speaker 1: know that these lines are so efficient, especially only two games,

763
00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:42,840
Speaker 1: so it's really hard to just say, oh, I just

764
00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:45,640
Speaker 1: I'm I'm being in the table on one one side

765
00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:48,840
Speaker 1: or another. But I didn't make a bet on Tampa

766
00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:52,360
Speaker 1: three and a half. Yeah, you know, the more I

767
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:55,399
Speaker 1: broke it down. Um, when you look at Green Bay lets,

768
00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:58,680
Speaker 1: they've been awesome this year, especially offensively. Roger has been great.

769
00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:02,880
Speaker 1: They of all, they faced the single easiest schedule, uh

770
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:04,840
Speaker 1: in the NFL. When you look at you know, some

771
00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:07,520
Speaker 1: of the advanced metrips, right, so you know they haven't

772
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:11,360
Speaker 1: faced necessarily, you know, top notch opponents and you know

773
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:14,560
Speaker 1: defensively or sorry, offensively. You know they're number one in

774
00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:18,400
Speaker 1: the NFL in protecting Aaron Rodgers. They've allowed only a

775
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 1: fifteen percent pressure rate. Right, Like, he's just had plenty

776
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:23,360
Speaker 1: of time to throw the ball, and he's he's completely

777
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:26,960
Speaker 1: dominated and decimated opponents when he's had a clean pocket.

778
00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:30,239
Speaker 1: Number one pretty much in every stat right, But he's

779
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:33,439
Speaker 1: only faced three defenses that rank in the top four

780
00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:36,880
Speaker 1: team UH in pressure rate in the NFL. It's the Saints,

781
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:40,640
Speaker 1: it's Tampa earlier in the year, um, and it's the Eagles.

782
00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:43,720
Speaker 1: And in those games, he was actually pressured uh forty

783
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:46,560
Speaker 1: two times, so third almost thirty eight percent of the dropbacks,

784
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 1: which is a significant number. Okay. And in those on

785
00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:52,279
Speaker 1: those forty two dropbacks, he was twelve of thirty three

786
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:55,600
Speaker 1: for a hundred sixty eight yards UM in seven facts

787
00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:57,719
Speaker 1: there's only five yards per attempts, so he actually was

788
00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:00,279
Speaker 1: rattled a little bit. And we did see that first

789
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:02,279
Speaker 1: Tampa game. And so maybe you sit there and say,

790
00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 1: is that coincidence? I'm not sure. I mean, he only

791
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,359
Speaker 1: faced three defenses that really get after you, and all

792
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:10,360
Speaker 1: three did get after him, Um, And you know they

793
00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:13,320
Speaker 1: obviously we were dominated against Tampa. Now he did, he

794
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,480
Speaker 1: did play well in general against New Orleans and Philly,

795
00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:18,680
Speaker 1: but he wasn't you know, kind of his all world self.

796
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 1: So I think, you know, I took a little bit

797
00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:22,920
Speaker 1: from that first matchup. You know, you kind of throw

798
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,640
Speaker 1: out what happened at first game because they were you know,

799
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:27,720
Speaker 1: they're up tend nothing in a couple of picks sixes.

800
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:29,960
Speaker 1: It was just kind of random. But I still think

801
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:31,840
Speaker 1: you can get to Rogers and the fact that he

802
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:34,359
Speaker 1: had David Bactr in that game. Right in that game

803
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:37,279
Speaker 1: and the first first matchup where he was pressured a ton,

804
00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:40,399
Speaker 1: they were pressured over forty percent of the time, back

805
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:43,840
Speaker 1: tr gave up zero pressures himself. So not only do

806
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 1: you have to face this defense that can get you know,

807
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:48,640
Speaker 1: obviously complit and get after him, and they got great athletes,

808
00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 1: but you're doing it without your best tackle who didn't

809
00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:52,719
Speaker 1: give up anything in the first matchup. So I'll keep

810
00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:54,759
Speaker 1: an eye on that, Um. And like I said that,

811
00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:56,879
Speaker 1: just in terms of schedules, like they haven't really faced

812
00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:59,879
Speaker 1: a ton of teams. They faced twelve teams who rank

813
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:02,120
Speaker 1: the top teams that rank in the top twelve and

814
00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:04,440
Speaker 1: net E P a P play, which is again an

815
00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:07,759
Speaker 1: advanced metric. The Colts Tampa, New Orleans and they went

816
00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:09,759
Speaker 1: one and two in those games, and they only win was,

817
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:13,040
Speaker 1: you know, against the Saints by seven. So I just

818
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:14,879
Speaker 1: think we gotta keep that in mind. Even last week,

819
00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 1: Look that defense allowed Jared Goff to move up and

820
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:19,320
Speaker 1: down the field like they were really good. When you

821
00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:21,000
Speaker 1: look at some of the success he had, especially on

822
00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:25,120
Speaker 1: early downs, success rate on early downs, Like they moved

823
00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:28,640
Speaker 1: the ball, scoring eighteen points with a guy who's playing

824
00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:31,279
Speaker 1: with a dislocated thumb, and cold Weather didn't have one

825
00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:33,320
Speaker 1: of his offensive lineman, didn't have his best weapon in

826
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:35,440
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup. Like, I was actually surprised they moved the

827
00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:37,719
Speaker 1: ball as well as they did. So I think Tom

828
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:40,760
Speaker 1: Brady will have success in this game. He's had success

829
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 1: against everybody who is not at the you know, in

830
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:46,440
Speaker 1: the top ten in in d v O A defense. UM,

831
00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:50,360
Speaker 1: He's thrown thirty five touchdowns, five interceptions, completed almost seventy

832
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:54,040
Speaker 1: of his passes against uh, every team that's not in

833
00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:55,719
Speaker 1: the top ten in d v O, A defense in

834
00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 1: green Bay is seventeen, so I think I'll have pressure,

835
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:01,600
Speaker 1: he'll have six. That's here. I think Tampa will get

836
00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:05,479
Speaker 1: enough pressure to you know, stop green Bay on some drive.

837
00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:07,440
Speaker 1: I think think game goes under the total. I think

838
00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:10,040
Speaker 1: this is like a twenty four twenty three type of game.

839
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:13,279
Speaker 1: So I think not only uh, the Tampa have a

840
00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:15,959
Speaker 1: really good shot of winning. I think they've got it worst.

841
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:18,120
Speaker 1: They've got a shot to cover the three and a half.

842
00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 1: I mean green Bay is allowed a bunch of teams,

843
00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:23,680
Speaker 1: namely the Lions, the Panthers, and some others that have

844
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:25,759
Speaker 1: able to backdoor them. You know, even if they have

845
00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:27,279
Speaker 1: a big lead, because they don't really well in the

846
00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:30,000
Speaker 1: first half. They get these big leads in the first

847
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:32,319
Speaker 1: half and then they let teams back in it. Um,

848
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:34,319
Speaker 1: I think they can cover at the very worst at

849
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:35,560
Speaker 1: three and a half on the back door. I think

850
00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:36,759
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a really good game. And I think

851
00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:38,400
Speaker 1: Tampa the shop that went out right. But I like

852
00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:41,279
Speaker 1: the three and a half here interesting. So I'm looking

853
00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:43,880
Speaker 1: at the screen here and it looks like there is

854
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:48,040
Speaker 1: the temperatures like nine degrees in lambeau Field right now,

855
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:51,480
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, eleven degrees and it's gonna be somewhere in

856
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:55,239
Speaker 1: the twenties. T A. A big narrative this week is well,

857
00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:57,839
Speaker 1: you've got a warm weather team going to cold weather,

858
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,840
Speaker 1: and I know everybody says, well, Tom Brady's played in

859
00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:05,280
Speaker 1: New England winters for nineteen years. He's going to be fine, okay,

860
00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:07,920
Speaker 1: But I'm more curious about the rest of the team.

861
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:10,560
Speaker 1: The coldest weather game they played in this year was

862
00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:13,719
Speaker 1: that Washington playoff game was like thirty five degrees. Every

863
00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:16,400
Speaker 1: skill position player war short sleeves. Didn't look like a

864
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:20,040
Speaker 1: big deal. They it was like, I think it's like

865
00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:23,120
Speaker 1: seventy eight degrees in Tampa. They're gonna land. There's like

866
00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:27,160
Speaker 1: a sixty degree difference. Do you think at all in

867
00:48:27,239 --> 00:48:30,880
Speaker 1: any way, shape or form, whether it's heavier clothes, uh,

868
00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:34,920
Speaker 1: sitting on the sideline, um, just being outside, do you

869
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:36,920
Speaker 1: think that has any impact at all? Is it a

870
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:40,480
Speaker 1: zero impact or like something but unquantifiable? How do you

871
00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:43,439
Speaker 1: hit characterize the weather? Yeah, I mean I think there's

872
00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:46,000
Speaker 1: there's a little impact. Um, it's hard to quantify. I

873
00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:49,120
Speaker 1: have seen some studies, Um that you know, maybe it

874
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:51,239
Speaker 1: adds like an extra half a point or a point

875
00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:53,880
Speaker 1: to you know, whatever you model out the point spread

876
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:55,960
Speaker 1: to be. And I personally have this game at UM

877
00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 1: using my numbers A green Bay a too, So like

878
00:48:58,719 --> 00:48:59,880
Speaker 1: either if you get to two and a half of

879
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:01,880
Speaker 1: for you, I still think there's value there. I mean

880
00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:04,600
Speaker 1: you're looking at the temperature now, I mean I'm looking tomorrow.

881
00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:07,520
Speaker 1: It looks like it's you know, in the upper twenties,

882
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:09,680
Speaker 1: and there's and really the issue for me would be

883
00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:12,160
Speaker 1: the wind. There's no wind, and it took seven miles

884
00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:15,200
Speaker 1: an hour, um. And let's let's take a look. So

885
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:18,520
Speaker 1: we know Brady has had success. Obviously he's fine in

886
00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:21,640
Speaker 1: this cold leather is used to it. Gronk, Obviously it's fine.

887
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:24,040
Speaker 1: You know, he's used to it. Uh, look at Chris Godwin.

888
00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:26,200
Speaker 1: Chris Godwin went the Penn State. Like he's not some

889
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:29,640
Speaker 1: you know California kid or Florida kid. You know, he

890
00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:31,640
Speaker 1: went to Penn State. Like, I don't think it's really

891
00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:35,200
Speaker 1: that big of a deal. Um, if it was single

892
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:38,200
Speaker 1: digit temperatures and it was like just a frigid like

893
00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 1: when you know, huge wind and and you know, like

894
00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:43,879
Speaker 1: I think that could have a factor. But I don't

895
00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:46,239
Speaker 1: think upper twenties. But no wind is really that with

896
00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:49,000
Speaker 1: no precipitation is really that big of a deal. Like

897
00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:50,719
Speaker 1: I said, if you want to up at like a

898
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:53,040
Speaker 1: half a point, sure, but I think at the end

899
00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:54,680
Speaker 1: of the day, it's not not really the end of

900
00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:56,759
Speaker 1: the world. So the other aspect before we get to

901
00:49:56,800 --> 00:50:00,640
Speaker 1: the next game, bucks third straight road game and if

902
00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:02,280
Speaker 1: you go back to the end of the regular season,

903
00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:04,399
Speaker 1: they did not have a buy in the playoffs. Fifth

904
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:07,799
Speaker 1: road game in six weeks. We have at times during

905
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:10,680
Speaker 1: the regular season seen teams struggle in these you know,

906
00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:13,839
Speaker 1: big road trips. The rams come to mind, um any

907
00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:17,480
Speaker 1: factor at all in the handicapping for you. No, Like

908
00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:19,080
Speaker 1: I said, I mean, I think these things are all

909
00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:22,000
Speaker 1: just kind of minor, kind of on the fringes um

910
00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:25,040
Speaker 1: type of type of things. But like at this point

911
00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:28,000
Speaker 1: in the in the game, like your adrenaline, they they're

912
00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:30,680
Speaker 1: full focused there. Like if this is mid season like

913
00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:33,120
Speaker 1: that stuff, I think can can get to a team

914
00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:35,160
Speaker 1: that maybe you have a law right and it's like, oh,

915
00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:37,640
Speaker 1: I gotta go back on the road again, and you know,

916
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:41,320
Speaker 1: maybe maybe you don't take things that seriously or you know,

917
00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:43,760
Speaker 1: you get kind of relaxed. I mean but you're adrenal.

918
00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:46,120
Speaker 1: Their adrenal is gonna be pumping throughout like that. That's

919
00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:47,960
Speaker 1: I don't that's not really a worry for me. I mean,

920
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:50,400
Speaker 1: I think in general, when you get to this stage

921
00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:54,920
Speaker 1: of the game, having having a first round by is advantageous. Um.

922
00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:57,319
Speaker 1: You know that like those types of things I think

923
00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:00,799
Speaker 1: matter more than you know it's multiple games on the road.

924
00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:03,440
Speaker 1: It's just in general, whole fil advantage has always been

925
00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:07,160
Speaker 1: huge in playoffs that it just always has. But without fans,

926
00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:09,560
Speaker 1: I think it's it's less than a little bit. Um.

927
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:11,960
Speaker 1: So I don't take I don't take that to be

928
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:15,040
Speaker 1: a huge deal there. Right, So home field advantage is

929
00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:19,000
Speaker 1: a perfect pivot to U Ksey Buffalo. One interesting thing

930
00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:22,440
Speaker 1: about the Bills is if you read the Colts players,

931
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:25,680
Speaker 1: they said it was very loud in Buffalo in the

932
00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:30,279
Speaker 1: opening round weekend. If you watched Ravens Bills, when the

933
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:34,400
Speaker 1: Justin Tucker kicks hit the upright, it sounded like a

934
00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:37,280
Speaker 1: fifty thou fans I know there weren't Now the Bills

935
00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:41,799
Speaker 1: have to go on the road, Um, any impact there

936
00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:44,680
Speaker 1: at all for for Buffalo, Kansas City, a home field

937
00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:48,840
Speaker 1: advantage we've seen home field advantage being negated this season. Basically, No,

938
00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:50,759
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I mean the Browns game last week,

939
00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:52,560
Speaker 1: it didn't really. I don't think that old crowd really

940
00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:55,120
Speaker 1: affected them there. Um, like I said, these are minor things.

941
00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:56,960
Speaker 1: These are these are things on the fringes. Like it's

942
00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:59,239
Speaker 1: not like Josh Allen's not gonna be able to snap

943
00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:02,040
Speaker 1: the ball because of the the other crowds too loud,

944
00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:04,839
Speaker 1: Like that stuff doesn't really I don't like that really

945
00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:06,600
Speaker 1: impact the thing. I mean, I think last week it

946
00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:08,759
Speaker 1: was for the Raven it was just the wind and

947
00:52:08,960 --> 00:52:11,640
Speaker 1: the stuf fact that could um in the wind. But

948
00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:14,719
Speaker 1: I mean for this game, I don't have a play

949
00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:17,400
Speaker 1: on a side just because I think it's it's just

950
00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:19,680
Speaker 1: too difficult, like the way Kansas City has been playing.

951
00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:22,279
Speaker 1: If you if you just stripped out the names right

952
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:25,080
Speaker 1: and he just looked at their resumes and the numbers

953
00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:29,120
Speaker 1: this year, you would clearly take Buffalo here, right because um,

954
00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:31,920
Speaker 1: they are actually on looking again, looking at a lot

955
00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:34,279
Speaker 1: of the advanced metrics and whatnot, they're they're the better

956
00:52:34,400 --> 00:52:36,600
Speaker 1: team overall, and at worst it's probably would be a

957
00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:39,040
Speaker 1: pick them. I think if it wasn't, if you didn't

958
00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:41,200
Speaker 1: have kind of priors. If you didn't know who who

959
00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:43,560
Speaker 1: came to City and Buffalo were, um, this would probably

960
00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:45,719
Speaker 1: be closer up pick them. So but we know who

961
00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:47,160
Speaker 1: they are, We know who the Chiefs are, we know

962
00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:49,759
Speaker 1: who Patrick Mahomes is, and they have the ability to

963
00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:52,040
Speaker 1: kind of turn it on. So I'm staying away from

964
00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:56,120
Speaker 1: the side. I actually took the Bill's team total over UM.

965
00:52:57,040 --> 00:52:59,000
Speaker 1: I like, I think they can move the ball in

966
00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:03,680
Speaker 1: this Chief defense. I rewatched that first Kansas City Buffalo

967
00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:09,600
Speaker 1: Gamel Well. I unfortunate, unfortunately, I do have game paths

968
00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:12,960
Speaker 1: that I had the condensed versions. It fast forward through everything,

969
00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:14,520
Speaker 1: So I just wanted to see, like what happened, and

970
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:16,520
Speaker 1: I did watch it live, but you know, obviously I

971
00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:19,920
Speaker 1: don't recall exactly what happened. Josh Allen actually had a

972
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:22,239
Speaker 1: lot of guys open. Now, he did get pressured the

973
00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:25,439
Speaker 1: most um off season in that game. They did blitz

974
00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:28,120
Speaker 1: him a lot, but he did have he did have

975
00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:30,560
Speaker 1: time to look down the field and what he did

976
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:34,040
Speaker 1: was I think he really forced the defall a lot. Um.

977
00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:37,799
Speaker 1: There were times where guys like the running backs were opened. Um.

978
00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:40,600
Speaker 1: John Brown, There's one instance John Brown did like a

979
00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:43,520
Speaker 1: five yard in an outcut right, and there wasn't a

980
00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:46,800
Speaker 1: Kansas City defensive back within ten yards of him, and

981
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:50,520
Speaker 1: Josh Allen was just staring down stefon dig deep. He

982
00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:52,560
Speaker 1: ended up throwing into double coverage. It was like a

983
00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:54,440
Speaker 1: forty yard bomb if you just would have looked to

984
00:53:54,520 --> 00:53:58,040
Speaker 1: his lock uh and taking a dump off to John

985
00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:01,120
Speaker 1: Brownie would have ten fifteen yards easy um. And he

986
00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:05,600
Speaker 1: went over six um on deep deep shots in this game.

987
00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:09,920
Speaker 1: He had two uh past interference penalties, one interception and

988
00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:13,080
Speaker 1: just didn't complete anything else. I think they learned from that.

989
00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:15,000
Speaker 1: I think they will look at the film. They're gonna

990
00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:17,399
Speaker 1: take this. He's gonna take what's there. He's gonna take

991
00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:20,359
Speaker 1: what's there underneath UM. I don't think he's gonna force

992
00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:23,400
Speaker 1: it as often as he did, because even when he

993
00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:25,800
Speaker 1: did go underneath two, he was he was inaccurate. Just

994
00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:27,959
Speaker 1: something about that game, I think maybe because it was raining.

995
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:30,560
Speaker 1: I think that they're gonna learn from that. I think

996
00:54:30,560 --> 00:54:33,920
Speaker 1: they're gonna use a lot more Josh Allen design runs. Uh.

997
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:35,839
Speaker 1: They did that four or five times, and he gained

998
00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:37,400
Speaker 1: about thirty yards doing that. But if you want to

999
00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:39,080
Speaker 1: look for a prop I like to Josh Allen over

1000
00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:40,719
Speaker 1: rush yard. I think they'll do that a lot more.

1001
00:54:42,440 --> 00:54:44,880
Speaker 1: Let me ask real quickly, a lot of these misses,

1002
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:46,960
Speaker 1: do you remember if they were first half or second half?

1003
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:50,920
Speaker 1: I'll tell you why in a sec um. I don't recall.

1004
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:52,759
Speaker 1: I think it was a combination with the two, but

1005
00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:55,239
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't recall exactly which happened. The only

1006
00:54:55,320 --> 00:54:57,239
Speaker 1: reason I asked is because I looked this up. This

1007
00:54:57,360 --> 00:55:00,160
Speaker 1: is a crazy stat I haven't heard people talk about it. Right.

1008
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:03,640
Speaker 1: The last time the Buffalo Bills trailed in the second

1009
00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:06,080
Speaker 1: half of a football game, it was like over two

1010
00:55:06,160 --> 00:55:09,120
Speaker 1: months ago, the Hail Marie game. They have faced zero

1011
00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:12,200
Speaker 1: adversity in the second half. And I think your point

1012
00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:15,319
Speaker 1: about Josh Allen, you know he likes a little there's

1013
00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:18,000
Speaker 1: some yolo in his game. I'm gonna make things happen.

1014
00:55:18,320 --> 00:55:20,399
Speaker 1: I'm gonna scramble, I'm gonna I'm not gonna take the sack.

1015
00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:23,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna chuck a deep. And I just am curious

1016
00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:26,520
Speaker 1: how on the road he's gonna do if he's trailing

1017
00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:28,239
Speaker 1: in the second half. Has not been behind in the

1018
00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:31,200
Speaker 1: second half since that Arizona game. I mean t a

1019
00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:34,640
Speaker 1: We've seen him late in playoff games, whether it was Ravens,

1020
00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:37,560
Speaker 1: whether it was could just you know, the Texans last

1021
00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:40,440
Speaker 1: year just get a little sketchy in the pocket. And

1022
00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:43,319
Speaker 1: I think that that's not something that you can quantify, right,

1023
00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:46,400
Speaker 1: it's not predictive. I just don't know how Alan is

1024
00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:49,960
Speaker 1: gonna fare second half trailing in a football game. Yeah,

1025
00:55:49,960 --> 00:55:51,879
Speaker 1: I agree, And that's why I didn't take the side here.

1026
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:54,239
Speaker 1: That's why I didn't take Buffalo because I think there

1027
00:55:54,440 --> 00:56:01,000
Speaker 1: is an unquantifiable um angle here where Look, Mahomes and

1028
00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:02,839
Speaker 1: the Chiefs have been there before. They know what they're

1029
00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:05,759
Speaker 1: doing in a tight situation. I feel I trust them

1030
00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:07,719
Speaker 1: more than a Josh Allen who has never been in

1031
00:56:07,719 --> 00:56:10,360
Speaker 1: a conference championship game. Um, only made one, you know,

1032
00:56:10,520 --> 00:56:12,960
Speaker 1: had one playoffs start before this year. Um, you never

1033
00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:15,600
Speaker 1: know what happens in a tight situation like that. If

1034
00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:17,839
Speaker 1: you can drive the team downfield for for a game,

1035
00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:21,239
Speaker 1: game winning drive, um, those sorts of things are tough

1036
00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:24,200
Speaker 1: to to quantify. And so that's why I like more

1037
00:56:24,320 --> 00:56:26,000
Speaker 1: just I like the team total more than I do

1038
00:56:26,160 --> 00:56:27,320
Speaker 1: the side to at the end of the day, that

1039
00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:30,440
Speaker 1: this is tough to to really accomplish. I mean, we

1040
00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:33,360
Speaker 1: saw two years ago Patrick Mahomes got to the the

1041
00:56:33,480 --> 00:56:37,120
Speaker 1: A Conference championship game and struggled in the first half

1042
00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:39,880
Speaker 1: against the Patriots. They did turn it on. Yeah, they

1043
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:41,520
Speaker 1: did turn it on at the end, but you know

1044
00:56:41,560 --> 00:56:43,480
Speaker 1: they it was a little kind of too little, too late,

1045
00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:46,480
Speaker 1: and then he needed that, in my opinion, to kind

1046
00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:49,640
Speaker 1: of get through the playoffs, uh, you know last year,

1047
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:51,480
Speaker 1: uh and win a super Bowl. So I think it's

1048
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:53,120
Speaker 1: one of those you kind of have to feel that

1049
00:56:53,160 --> 00:56:56,640
Speaker 1: adversary adversity first before you can kind of get to

1050
00:56:56,719 --> 00:56:59,600
Speaker 1: the to the super Bowl. So um in that situation,

1051
00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:01,520
Speaker 1: That's why I, like I said, I think from a

1052
00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:04,360
Speaker 1: from a side perspective, I probably if I had to

1053
00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:06,359
Speaker 1: gun to my head and lean cheeks if I get

1054
00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:09,560
Speaker 1: the three UM. But I just think I think both

1055
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:10,920
Speaker 1: team will be able to score. I think this goes

1056
00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:14,919
Speaker 1: over the total UM and I just think that Josh

1057
00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:17,800
Speaker 1: Allen Um, like I said, from a from a winning

1058
00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:21,040
Speaker 1: or a covering perspective, it's a tougher as to me.

1059
00:57:21,080 --> 00:57:23,120
Speaker 1: If you get over the feel better about Yeah, I

1060
00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:25,800
Speaker 1: I took you over. I know it's chalky and square

1061
00:57:25,840 --> 00:57:27,480
Speaker 1: and whatever else you want to say, but I went

1062
00:57:27,600 --> 00:57:31,800
Speaker 1: with the money line parlay Chiefs and Packers. Um, I

1063
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:35,560
Speaker 1: just square money line, very very square. It's it's the

1064
00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:39,720
Speaker 1: cheesiest play. But um again, like you, you made great points.

1065
00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:41,720
Speaker 1: You can make a case for the Bucks and you

1066
00:57:41,760 --> 00:57:44,120
Speaker 1: can make a certain case for the Bills. Uh, no

1067
00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:47,240
Speaker 1: doubt so I I just I hate the hook and

1068
00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:49,040
Speaker 1: I didn't want to die on that hill. So anyways,

1069
00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:52,840
Speaker 1: t a as usual, an amazing season, great insight. Obviously,

1070
00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:54,440
Speaker 1: we'll have you back in a couple of weeks ahead

1071
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:56,840
Speaker 1: of the super Bowl. And um, I'm sure you'll have

1072
00:57:56,960 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 1: plenty of props. By the way, I did grab a

1073
00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:01,640
Speaker 1: little heard four net over forty and a half just

1074
00:58:01,720 --> 00:58:05,080
Speaker 1: because Bruce arians is obsessed with running the football. He's

1075
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:08,760
Speaker 1: gonna die on that hill. Um and uh a couple

1076
00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:11,000
Speaker 1: other props, but I'll post them on my column for

1077
00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:13,600
Speaker 1: Fox sports dot com. I do like Chris Godwin, by

1078
00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:16,600
Speaker 1: the way, Chris Godwin because he's gonna be in the slide,

1079
00:58:16,600 --> 00:58:19,680
Speaker 1: He's gonna be away from Gyra. Yeah, that is one

1080
00:58:19,720 --> 00:58:22,320
Speaker 1: receiving prop. I d certainly Godwin. Um so t a

1081
00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:25,400

Speaker 1: the conference championship games. Keep it locked, Fox Sports Radio.

1087
00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:48,880
Speaker 1: Call one eight Farmers and you could save on your

1088
00:58:48,880 --> 00:58:51,120
Speaker 1: auto insurance. It's better than using your phone to see

Speaker 1: if your post got any likes. Again, Call one eight

1090
00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:58,520
Speaker 1: eight Farmers to get a quote. We are Farmers written

1091
00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:01,919
Speaker 1: my farmer Sharper Fire insurance changes the earth every It's

1092
00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:07,720
Speaker 1: me Jason McIntyre live from the Farmer's Insurance Fox Sports

1093
00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:11,360
Speaker 1: Radio Studios. Call one at eight Farmers to switch and

1094
00:59:11,400 --> 00:59:14,560
Speaker 1: you could save a bundle on your auto insurance. As

1095
00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:19,760
Speaker 1: I look at the lines for the championship games, both

1096
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:22,320
Speaker 1: have basically been around the most key number in the

1097
00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:29,120
Speaker 1: NFL three all week. It looks like Green Bay is

1098
00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:30,760
Speaker 1: probably gonna go off at three and a half. Maybe

1099
00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:32,960
Speaker 1: there's some late Tampa money tomorrow pushing it to three.

1100
00:59:33,560 --> 00:59:36,920
Speaker 1: Kansas City, there are some some threes left, some juice

1101
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:40,200
Speaker 1: trees that are gonna get to three and a half. Um, Gavin,

1102
00:59:40,280 --> 00:59:44,840
Speaker 1: have you fired on anything yet? Yeah? Um, you know

1103
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:48,480
Speaker 1: I love a teaser. Turn a teaser down. I have

1104
00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:54,240
Speaker 1: bills plus nine and bucks plus ten from earlier in

1105
00:59:54,320 --> 00:59:58,120
Speaker 1: the week a teasers. Yeah, um, those numbers have come

1106
00:59:58,160 --> 01:00:01,920
Speaker 1: down a little bit. Um idea fire on Packers minus

1107
01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:04,000
Speaker 1: three and a half today. Just looking through some of

1108
01:00:04,040 --> 01:00:07,040
Speaker 1: the numbers, I'm kind of I see a lot of

1109
01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:09,120
Speaker 1: different ways that the Packers could run away with a

1110
01:00:09,160 --> 01:00:13,840
Speaker 1: game tomorrow. So if I had to ultimately make one

1111
01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:17,640
Speaker 1: bet this weekend, I think I would go with the Packers. Um.

1112
01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:21,680
Speaker 1: I just don't think Tampa without Antonio Brown as well,

1113
01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:23,840
Speaker 1: I just don't think they're gonna be able to keep

1114
01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:25,800
Speaker 1: up with the firepower of I mean, look what the

1115
01:00:25,880 --> 01:00:30,240
Speaker 1: Packers did against the Rams number one defense. Maybe Brandon

1116
01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:32,280
Speaker 1: Staley just had his head in the clouds thinking about

1117
01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:36,680
Speaker 1: that Chargers gig he's about to get. But yeah, I

1118
01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:39,040
Speaker 1: just I don't know. Now they do get Vita Vea back,

1119
01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:45,200
Speaker 1: that will be a factor. Um SO Championship game totals

1120
01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:49,360
Speaker 1: Conference championship game totals since two thousand two, twelve and

1121
01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:54,800
Speaker 1: two to the overs. Again, tiny sample size, but conference

1122
01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:58,840
Speaker 1: championship game totals have tended over in the last eighteen years.

1123
01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:01,040
Speaker 1: Another number and again not a trend guy. I just

1124
01:01:01,120 --> 01:01:06,680
Speaker 1: found these moderately interesting. Aaron Rodgers as a home favorite

1125
01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:10,920
Speaker 1: under a touchdown right, twenty seven, twelve and one against

1126
01:01:10,960 --> 01:01:14,400
Speaker 1: the spread. Aaron Rodgers at home not a big number

1127
01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:18,800
Speaker 1: he delivers. Now again, they were big numbers against Jacksonville

1128
01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:23,200
Speaker 1: against Who's the Carolina and he's not covering those. And

1129
01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:25,280
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, if you want to go with the trend,

1130
01:01:25,400 --> 01:01:29,160
Speaker 1: has not been great in championship games, right the NFC

1131
01:01:29,400 --> 01:01:32,160
Speaker 1: title games, his stats have not been terrific. Now they've

1132
01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:35,760
Speaker 1: all been on the road until this one, so we'll

1133
01:01:35,760 --> 01:01:39,560
Speaker 1: see ward final trend. I mentioned the third straight road

1134
01:01:39,600 --> 01:01:44,720
Speaker 1: game to t A. He was unimpressed teams in the

1135
01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:47,320
Speaker 1: playoffs that have had three straight road games. In that

1136
01:01:47,400 --> 01:01:52,720
Speaker 1: third game, five and twelve against the spread, that's not good. Bravens.

1137
01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:56,240
Speaker 1: Last week UM had their third straight road game. Now

1138
01:01:56,320 --> 01:01:58,120
Speaker 1: wasn't third straight playoff game because they were on the

1139
01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:00,680
Speaker 1: road for week seventeen, But I do think is something there.

1140
01:02:00,760 --> 01:02:02,720
Speaker 1: I I tend to fade teams on the third strade

1141
01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:05,360
Speaker 1: road game just to travel wears on you man. You

1142
01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:07,360
Speaker 1: guys know what it's like to travel for work. Back

1143
01:02:07,440 --> 01:02:09,960
Speaker 1: when you could travel. It ain't fun now I think

1144
01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:14,600
Speaker 1: about it, playing a football game, going and freezing, freezing weather.

1145
01:02:15,880 --> 01:02:17,280
Speaker 1: All you want to do is get the heck home

1146
01:02:17,560 --> 01:02:19,440
Speaker 1: to Tampa and start that off season. Not that you

1147
01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:21,640
Speaker 1: don't want to go to the super Bowl, but you don't.

1148
01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:24,760
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, man, I think there's something there. So

1149
01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:26,640
Speaker 1: I'm with you, Gavin. I wold say, do you have

1150
01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:31,880
Speaker 1: a pick war two? I like the Chiefs. Um Chiefs cover,

1151
01:02:32,680 --> 01:02:35,760
Speaker 1: but um, I do agree with Gavin that probably the

1152
01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:40,040
Speaker 1: Green Bay game has um the highest propensity to maybe

1153
01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:42,320
Speaker 1: cover that. And then some you know, yeah, a lot

1154
01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:44,680
Speaker 1: of people are saying, well, the Bills have covered seven

1155
01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:48,080
Speaker 1: of eight and the Chiefs have not covered the spread

1156
01:02:48,080 --> 01:02:50,560
Speaker 1: in their last nine games, So give me the Bills.

1157
01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:52,840
Speaker 1: And again a lot of those Chiefs spreads were big,

1158
01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:55,800
Speaker 1: only one three, and they pushed on the road. Now

1159
01:02:55,800 --> 01:02:58,680
Speaker 1: they're at home. We'll see all right. Coming up next,

1160
01:02:58,720 --> 01:03:00,800
Speaker 1: we're bringing in a Chiefs beat writer, the latest on

1161

1162
01:03:06,160 --> 01:03:08,240
Speaker 1: the weather going to be a factor in casey? All

1163
01:03:08,320 --> 01:03:12,720
Speaker 1: that coming up next, But first Ralph Irvin with what's

1213
01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:13,800
Speaker 1: start by, Well, let's let's just go with what they

1214
01:06:13,880 --> 01:06:16,560
Speaker 1: call the inverted pyramid in the old days of the business.

1215
01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:19,760
Speaker 1: You go with the top and come on down. We'll

1216
01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:24,960
Speaker 1: start with Patrick um So, barring some bizarre twist in

1217
01:06:25,040 --> 01:06:28,160
Speaker 1: the next twenty four hours, that Patrick is fully expected

1218
01:06:28,200 --> 01:06:30,520
Speaker 1: to play now. But we've had our sort of week

1219
01:06:30,600 --> 01:06:35,720
Speaker 1: of funny twist, or at least just some mystery and

1220
01:06:36,160 --> 01:06:39,680
Speaker 1: vagueness to this situation. And and the bottom line is,

1221
01:06:40,600 --> 01:06:43,080
Speaker 1: you know, he told us yesterday he's been cleared through

1222
01:06:43,120 --> 01:06:46,800
Speaker 1: every protocols, he's good to go. Um. You know, the

1223
01:06:46,920 --> 01:06:52,760
Speaker 1: protocols include a five step um process and independent doctors

1224
01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:55,960
Speaker 1: and chiefs doctors. And I think there are probably are

1225
01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:58,040
Speaker 1: plenty of cynical people who think, well, you could, of

1226
01:06:58,080 --> 01:07:01,520
Speaker 1: course you can game the system. Um, and maybe there

1227
01:07:01,600 --> 01:07:03,840
Speaker 1: is room for that, right. And we saw what it

1228
01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:05,840
Speaker 1: looked like when he got up, and that that was,

1229
01:07:06,760 --> 01:07:10,680
Speaker 1: you know, just chilling. But I think also that we

1230
01:07:10,800 --> 01:07:14,120
Speaker 1: need to remember that this is the Chiefs golden goose.

1231
01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:17,400
Speaker 1: The Chiefs understand that, uh, first of all, on a

1232
01:07:17,520 --> 01:07:20,160
Speaker 1: human level, the Chiefs understand that this this guy is

1233
01:07:20,200 --> 01:07:24,960
Speaker 1: a person, and also that he's their future. UM. I

1234
01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:27,080
Speaker 1: might be naive, but I find it hard to think

1235
01:07:27,160 --> 01:07:30,720
Speaker 1: that anybody wilfully, recklessly is pushing through something here that

1236
01:07:30,800 --> 01:07:34,880
Speaker 1: they shouldn't. But I also understand anybody that thinks, well,

1237
01:07:34,920 --> 01:07:37,120
Speaker 1: how can he be playing after that? There is a

1238
01:07:37,240 --> 01:07:39,840
Speaker 1: school of thought. And I've been told this by an

1239
01:07:39,880 --> 01:07:42,480
Speaker 1: informed observer, and and a few of our reporters have

1240
01:07:42,520 --> 01:07:46,560
Speaker 1: been told similar things. Come inside that what happened was

1241
01:07:46,840 --> 01:07:49,240
Speaker 1: less a concussion, less a matter of it being a

1242
01:07:49,280 --> 01:07:54,840
Speaker 1: concussion than a than a knockout chokehold uh, inadvertent assumably, um,

1243
01:07:55,080 --> 01:07:58,120
Speaker 1: which would account for how he got up and also

1244
01:07:58,200 --> 01:08:00,560
Speaker 1: account for why the no go pro a call had

1245
01:08:00,640 --> 01:08:03,840
Speaker 1: to be engaged regardless of weather. Was concussion. I just

1246
01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:06,400
Speaker 1: wish somebody would tell us that on the record if

1247
01:08:06,480 --> 01:08:08,720
Speaker 1: that's the case, so that that's that's part of what

1248
01:08:09,240 --> 01:08:11,280
Speaker 1: doesn't make sense to me and some of this well,

1249
01:08:11,360 --> 01:08:15,080
Speaker 1: what's what else is interesting is I believe Andy Reid

1250
01:08:15,240 --> 01:08:17,479
Speaker 1: never used the word concussion unless that changed you in

1251
01:08:17,520 --> 01:08:20,599
Speaker 1: the last twenty four hours. But I didn't hear him

1252
01:08:20,600 --> 01:08:23,360
Speaker 1: out of the word concussion. And uh, you know, maybe

1253
01:08:23,400 --> 01:08:27,280
Speaker 1: you can confirm apparently the doctor was doctor Roger Goodell,

1254
01:08:27,360 --> 01:08:31,040
Speaker 1: who cleared him for this game. Have you kidding? Of course?

1255
01:08:31,200 --> 01:08:36,479
Speaker 1: All right, it was his twin brother. Uh, okay, twin brother. Okay,

1256
01:08:36,520 --> 01:08:40,519
Speaker 1: that's what it was. Any word on Edwards Hilaire or Watkins, obviously,

1257
01:08:40,800 --> 01:08:43,559
Speaker 1: Edward Hilaire is the big one to watch because as

1258
01:08:43,600 --> 01:08:46,639
Speaker 1: well as Williams ran last week, I think Andy Reid

1259
01:08:46,680 --> 01:08:50,360
Speaker 1: trust the rookie a lot. Yeah he does. And you

1260
01:08:50,439 --> 01:08:53,120
Speaker 1: know they really carved up Buffalo and that with the

1261
01:08:53,200 --> 01:08:56,240
Speaker 1: ground game in that that first game. Um. The other

1262
01:08:56,320 --> 01:08:59,320
Speaker 1: thing it is interesting, Sammy Watkins of course is a

1263
01:08:59,360 --> 01:09:03,839
Speaker 1: former Buffalo Bill last I saw with the injury reports yesterday,

1264
01:09:03,920 --> 01:09:06,439
Speaker 1: it's my understanding that that we should be expecting them

1265
01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:09,559
Speaker 1: to play. But I will say I thought what Darryl

1266
01:09:09,560 --> 01:09:11,800
Speaker 1: Williams did last week makes me feel a lot better

1267
01:09:11,880 --> 01:09:16,120
Speaker 1: about their situation. If if if if Edwards lair is,

1268
01:09:16,320 --> 01:09:18,840
Speaker 1: you know, not quite what he normally moviv can't go that.

1269
01:09:18,960 --> 01:09:21,240
Speaker 1: There's a little mystery here as a side story, but

1270
01:09:21,560 --> 01:09:24,000
Speaker 1: why Levian Bell hasn't been more a part of things.

1271
01:09:24,120 --> 01:09:27,680
Speaker 1: And I think it's just sort of been between the

1272
01:09:27,800 --> 01:09:30,559
Speaker 1: lines that that he maybe has had a little trouble

1273
01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:33,280
Speaker 1: with with getting all the nuances of the playbook down,

1274
01:09:33,360 --> 01:09:34,640
Speaker 1: and there's just there's been a little bit of a

1275
01:09:34,640 --> 01:09:36,120
Speaker 1: school of thought of that. And I think also we

1276
01:09:36,240 --> 01:09:39,599
Speaker 1: realized he's he's a year or two past his peak. Um,

1277
01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:42,720
Speaker 1: not that he can't still do good things. We've seen

1278
01:09:42,800 --> 01:09:45,960
Speaker 1: some moments from him, but but uh, it's I think

1279
01:09:46,040 --> 01:09:48,439
Speaker 1: it's it's the wear and care of an NFL running back,

1280
01:09:48,600 --> 01:09:51,680
Speaker 1: and he certainly had his wear and tear. Yeah, I

1281
01:09:51,800 --> 01:09:54,840
Speaker 1: almost think that that year off kind of really cost

1282
01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:58,120
Speaker 1: He's just not looked like the same dynamics smart runner

1283
01:09:58,200 --> 01:10:00,519
Speaker 1: that he was back in Pittsburgh. All right, So the

1284
01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:04,679
Speaker 1: final one I guess, um is the is the Watkins

1285
01:10:04,760 --> 01:10:08,519
Speaker 1: you'd mentioned he's a former bill Um. You know, Mahomes

1286
01:10:08,560 --> 01:10:10,760
Speaker 1: has had him in every playoff game he's been. You know,

1287
01:10:10,880 --> 01:10:13,840
Speaker 1: memories are just quiet in the regular seasons, but in

1288
01:10:13,920 --> 01:10:16,400
Speaker 1: the playoffs for whatever reason, he is that home run

1289
01:10:16,520 --> 01:10:19,040
Speaker 1: hitter for Mahomes. How instrumental do you think he is?

1290
01:10:20,320 --> 01:10:22,920
Speaker 1: I think he's really important. Um. You know, it's funny.

1291
01:10:22,920 --> 01:10:24,960
Speaker 1: I kind of come to think of my Homes, Kelsey

1292
01:10:25,160 --> 01:10:28,240
Speaker 1: and Tyree kill is sort of the Bermuda triangle where

1293
01:10:28,280 --> 01:10:31,920
Speaker 1: defenses get lost, right, But but what what changes the

1294
01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:35,600
Speaker 1: dynamics of it a bit more and makes it so

1295
01:10:35,720 --> 01:10:38,880
Speaker 1: that you can't just have you know, five guys covering

1296
01:10:38,920 --> 01:10:43,360
Speaker 1: Kelsey and Hill each and is is Sammy Watkins. Um,

1297
01:10:43,960 --> 01:10:49,280
Speaker 1: And so that's important from that standpoint, absolutely is Um.

1298
01:10:50,439 --> 01:10:52,960
Speaker 1: They need him. They've got other guys who stepped in.

1299
01:10:53,080 --> 01:10:55,360
Speaker 1: You know, you keep waiting to see Hardman have a

1300
01:10:55,880 --> 01:10:59,160
Speaker 1: couple of really consistent great games. He's certainly incredibly fast

1301
01:10:59,240 --> 01:11:02,800
Speaker 1: and has a potential, but you know, every game or so,

1302
01:11:02,920 --> 01:11:04,720
Speaker 1: you feel like you see something that didn't quite work

1303
01:11:04,760 --> 01:11:06,800
Speaker 1: out right with them. Whether it was a miscommunication with

1304
01:11:06,920 --> 01:11:10,559
Speaker 1: Mahomes or whatever. And Byron Pringle can play to Marcus Robinson.

1305
01:11:10,640 --> 01:11:13,600
Speaker 1: They've got other guys, but not the complete package that

1306
01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:15,920
Speaker 1: Watkins is. All right, I'll wrap up with this one,

1307
01:11:16,080 --> 01:11:19,040
Speaker 1: vay Um. You know, they're part of the issue with

1308
01:11:19,200 --> 01:11:21,760
Speaker 1: the Chiefs. And again, it's tough to find issue with

1309
01:11:21,840 --> 01:11:24,000
Speaker 1: a team that's lost two games and one of them

1310
01:11:24,120 --> 01:11:27,400
Speaker 1: was all backups in the in the regular season finale.

1311
01:11:27,720 --> 01:11:31,200
Speaker 1: But there's this idea that they're not as hungry. You

1312
01:11:31,280 --> 01:11:34,479
Speaker 1: can't quantify it, but they've you know, not been great

1313
01:11:34,520 --> 01:11:39,480
Speaker 1: at putting away teams, covering the spread, their winning but unimpressively.

1314
01:11:39,600 --> 01:11:43,640
Speaker 1: So is there any way that you can wrap your

1315
01:11:43,800 --> 01:11:45,880
Speaker 1: arms around it? You know, they want a Super Bowl

1316
01:11:45,960 --> 01:11:48,439
Speaker 1: so that the hunger isn't there. I know that sounds

1317
01:11:48,520 --> 01:11:51,760
Speaker 1: cheesy to say, but they're not winning as convincingly as

1318
01:11:51,800 --> 01:11:54,800
Speaker 1: they did last year. They're letting teams hang around. Any

1319
01:11:54,880 --> 01:11:59,280
Speaker 1: thoughts on that overall? Yeah, I think it's a misunderstanding

1320
01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:01,599
Speaker 1: the things that it's not the hunger. In fact, I'd

1321
01:12:01,720 --> 01:12:04,280
Speaker 1: argue that the hunger is scotten them to where they are.

1322
01:12:04,800 --> 01:12:06,679
Speaker 1: You know, they have won twenty four the last twenty

1323
01:12:06,760 --> 01:12:10,240
Speaker 1: five games that my homes started, and it's not easy

1324
01:12:10,479 --> 01:12:12,600
Speaker 1: in the NFL. And one thing I talked to a

1325
01:12:13,080 --> 01:12:15,360
Speaker 1: an old friend of a sports psychologist friend of mine

1326
01:12:15,360 --> 01:12:17,479
Speaker 1: the other day, and he makes the point that you're

1327
01:12:17,560 --> 01:12:19,759
Speaker 1: trying to repeat is harder for a lot of reasons,

1328
01:12:19,840 --> 01:12:21,920
Speaker 1: and one of them is just the randomness of events.

1329
01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:24,880
Speaker 1: You know, when you win a championship, you win because

1330
01:12:24,920 --> 01:12:27,559
Speaker 1: you're great, but also because maybe some things went your

1331
01:12:27,600 --> 01:12:30,160
Speaker 1: way right, And we saw plenty of that last year,

1332
01:12:30,200 --> 01:12:33,160
Speaker 1: whether it was a Bill O'Brien ill advised fake punt

1333
01:12:33,240 --> 01:12:36,599
Speaker 1: when they're you know, Houston's leading seven, a couple of things,

1334
01:12:37,880 --> 01:12:40,240
Speaker 1: things like that. You don't necessarily expect that those things

1335
01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:44,200
Speaker 1: are gonna happen the next time around. So I get

1336
01:12:44,280 --> 01:12:47,080
Speaker 1: why people think that, oh, they're they're maybe they're vulnerable,

1337
01:12:47,160 --> 01:12:49,400
Speaker 1: they're they're not as good. But I think a lot

1338
01:12:49,439 --> 01:12:51,880
Speaker 1: of those games they won close are games that most

1339
01:12:51,960 --> 01:12:55,559
Speaker 1: teams would have just lost and they'd be eleven and five. Um.

1340
01:12:56,200 --> 01:12:58,680
Speaker 1: I think that you saw that at the end with

1341
01:12:58,800 --> 01:13:00,920
Speaker 1: Cleveland too, even with my Homes out of the game

1342
01:13:00,960 --> 01:13:04,519
Speaker 1: and Handy in there. Winning eight games earlier this season

1343
01:13:04,600 --> 01:13:07,040
Speaker 1: by one score or fewer, had something to do with

1344
01:13:07,160 --> 01:13:11,640
Speaker 1: why they won that game against Cleveland. M interesting observersy.

1345
01:13:11,720 --> 01:13:14,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm taking the Chiefs here. I don't love

1346
01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:17,519
Speaker 1: the three and a half, but I do think they prevailed.

1347
01:13:17,840 --> 01:13:20,320
Speaker 1: I mean vying. We're looking at Patrick Mahomes in his

1348
01:13:20,439 --> 01:13:23,519
Speaker 1: first three years as a starter, losing in the a

1349
01:13:23,680 --> 01:13:26,240
Speaker 1: f C Title Game to the eventual Super Bowl champs,

1350
01:13:26,479 --> 01:13:29,120
Speaker 1: winning the Super Bowl and the m v P and

1351
01:13:29,240 --> 01:13:32,840
Speaker 1: now going back. I mean, he's won games and there

1352
01:13:32,840 --> 01:13:34,800
Speaker 1: were for some reason doubters. I don't know. You're You're

1353
01:13:34,880 --> 01:13:37,720
Speaker 1: very fortunate man to see this team up close. It's

1354
01:13:37,760 --> 01:13:40,360
Speaker 1: really fun and Patrick is a kind of a revelation.

1355
01:13:40,439 --> 01:13:42,960
Speaker 1: Here's one other staff for your listeners that I find interesting.

1356
01:13:43,040 --> 01:13:46,719
Speaker 1: And it'll change, right, we know trends change. But between

1357
01:13:46,920 --> 01:13:51,519
Speaker 1: the last Super Bowl and for forty years between the

1358
01:13:51,560 --> 01:13:54,360
Speaker 1: last Super Bowl, Mahomes became their starter. The Chiefs were

1359
01:13:54,439 --> 01:13:58,639
Speaker 1: four and sixteen in the postseason, four and sixteen. They're

1360
01:13:58,680 --> 01:14:01,320
Speaker 1: now five and one with my hopes, so they won

1361
01:14:01,360 --> 01:14:03,640
Speaker 1: more games in the last two plus post seasons and

1362
01:14:03,760 --> 01:14:09,200

1384
01:15:19,200 --> 01:15:21,519

1386

01:15:42,000 --> 01:15:43,960
Speaker 1: have a camera here in the studio, but if you

1390
01:15:44,040 --> 01:15:46,760
Speaker 1: guys could see, Iowa Sam with his Wayne's World hat

1391
01:15:46,840 --> 01:15:51,160
Speaker 1: on and his glasses. He bears a little bit of

1392
01:15:51,200 --> 01:15:55,120
Speaker 1: a resemblance. Do you get that often? I'm kind of

1393
01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:59,759
Speaker 1: a composite between Garth and Wayne right now, indeed coming

1394
01:15:59,800 --> 01:16:02,600
Speaker 1: out the side. Uh. And I just I had to

1395
01:16:02,640 --> 01:16:04,240
Speaker 1: do a double take as I looked up and saw

1396
01:16:04,320 --> 01:16:09,640
Speaker 1: that earlier. Uh, it's me Jason mcintuck live from the

1397
01:16:09,680 --> 01:16:13,439
Speaker 1: Farmers Insurance Fox Sports Radio Studios called Farmers Today for

1398
01:16:13,520 --> 01:16:16,160
Speaker 1: a quote. So I just wanted to touch on this,

1399
01:16:16,280 --> 01:16:17,559
Speaker 1: and we still got a lot of stuff to cover

1400
01:16:17,640 --> 01:16:20,200
Speaker 1: in the final hour, but I had to because I

1401
01:16:20,320 --> 01:16:22,920
Speaker 1: keep getting badgered. You know, we're in an error right

1402
01:16:22,920 --> 01:16:26,680
Speaker 1: now where people can't really do much, especially out here

1403
01:16:26,720 --> 01:16:29,720
Speaker 1: in California, so people are watching streaming stuff all the time,

1404
01:16:30,360 --> 01:16:32,719
Speaker 1: and you know, i'd like to say, I am watching

1405
01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:35,200
Speaker 1: a lot of streaming stuff. But you know, I got

1406
01:16:35,240 --> 01:16:37,360
Speaker 1: the two young kids. I'm trying to keep them active.

1407
01:16:38,200 --> 01:16:40,800
Speaker 1: I just started them in coding classes online, which is

1408
01:16:40,880 --> 01:16:44,880
Speaker 1: really nerdy, but hey man, you know, the kids gotta

1409
01:16:44,960 --> 01:16:47,240
Speaker 1: learn to code. I don't know what I'm doing, um,

1410
01:16:47,720 --> 01:16:49,960
Speaker 1: So I just kind of listened to the teachers give

1411
01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:54,000
Speaker 1: them their private lessons over zoom or whatever. I'm like, okay,

1412
01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:57,639
Speaker 1: and I just haven't had a lot of time to stream.

1413
01:16:57,720 --> 01:17:00,599
Speaker 1: So I guess this Tiger Woods thing comes up HBO

1414
01:17:00,720 --> 01:17:05,000
Speaker 1: Max h Slash HBO, and I'm getting ready for the show,

1415
01:17:05,560 --> 01:17:07,120
Speaker 1: and I had remembered, okay, I've gotten a lot of

1416
01:17:07,160 --> 01:17:08,840
Speaker 1: people text about this. Let me just check it out.

1417
01:17:10,040 --> 01:17:14,439
Speaker 1: And the first part is Tiger's ascension and his rise,

1418
01:17:14,920 --> 01:17:18,679
Speaker 1: and the second part is his downfall. Now, first of all, Gavin,

1419
01:17:18,760 --> 01:17:23,000
Speaker 1: you said you've seen it, Yes, I would, Sam have you, No,

1420
01:17:23,120 --> 01:17:26,720
Speaker 1: I've only read about it. And Ralph or Irvin a

1421
01:17:26,840 --> 01:17:29,000
Speaker 1: big golf guy, you have seen it, correct, Ralph? Yes,

1422
01:17:30,920 --> 01:17:33,640
Speaker 1: The stuff about his dad is obviously very troubling. I

1423
01:17:34,240 --> 01:17:36,679
Speaker 1: didn't get a lot of new ground there. I don't

1424
01:17:36,720 --> 01:17:38,720
Speaker 1: know if you guys did, but I didn't see a

1425
01:17:38,840 --> 01:17:43,680
Speaker 1: lot in the father relationship, although the part about his

1426
01:17:43,880 --> 01:17:47,600
Speaker 1: dad having a camper at the golf course when he

1427
01:17:47,760 --> 01:17:49,880
Speaker 1: was like teaching Tiger and then his dad would like

1428
01:17:50,960 --> 01:17:55,639
Speaker 1: give these young hop moms lessons and then Tiger's dad

1429
01:17:55,840 --> 01:17:58,519
Speaker 1: and the golf pro wherever this was, they would just

1430
01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:02,360
Speaker 1: like go back to the camper with the moms, have

1431
01:18:02,560 --> 01:18:05,960
Speaker 1: some drinks. Now, Ralph, is this stuff with that stuff

1432
01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:08,360
Speaker 1: out there before or No, there was a lot of

1433
01:18:08,439 --> 01:18:10,360
Speaker 1: stuff about her old woods that it was out there.

1434
01:18:10,439 --> 01:18:13,080
Speaker 1: I mean, that wasn't anything new. I mean really nothing

1435
01:18:13,240 --> 01:18:16,519
Speaker 1: in this was new because it had all been reported,

1436
01:18:17,400 --> 01:18:20,360
Speaker 1: so zero broken ground. You're a big Tiger guy. Every

1437
01:18:20,479 --> 01:18:23,000
Speaker 1: everything that was there, I mean half the people that

1438
01:18:23,040 --> 01:18:26,559
Speaker 1: they were talking to our reporters, so it had been reported.

1439
01:18:27,280 --> 01:18:32,599
Speaker 1: I mean that that wasn't new. Wrote like a book

1440
01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:35,080
Speaker 1: on Tiger. Yeah, I mean this, you know, everything that

1441
01:18:35,200 --> 01:18:39,320
Speaker 1: was there, it was in a nutshell. The problem is

1442
01:18:39,439 --> 01:18:43,360
Speaker 1: is that this isn't authorized. So you're basically talking to

1443
01:18:43,479 --> 01:18:46,720
Speaker 1: everybody who's been rejected by Tiger, and that's what you're

1444
01:18:46,720 --> 01:18:50,160
Speaker 1: going to base an entire thing off. Now, his former

1445
01:18:50,240 --> 01:18:52,679
Speaker 1: caddie was in there. They've of course he's been rejected

1446
01:18:54,439 --> 01:18:57,479
Speaker 1: so here's the reason a lot of it felt new

1447
01:18:57,600 --> 01:19:00,519
Speaker 1: to me. This is gonna sound strange, given that I

1448
01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:06,120
Speaker 1: talked about sports all the time. I missed the Tiger rise.

1449
01:19:06,760 --> 01:19:08,639
Speaker 1: I know this is crazy, but I had just gotten

1450
01:19:08,640 --> 01:19:13,960
Speaker 1: out of college as Tigers ascending, and I was trying

1451
01:19:14,000 --> 01:19:16,320
Speaker 1: to be cool in New York City and trying to

1452
01:19:17,080 --> 01:19:20,640
Speaker 1: meet girls and go out three nights a week, and

1453
01:19:21,160 --> 01:19:24,679
Speaker 1: my weekends were spent recuperating. Like I was not watching

1454
01:19:24,800 --> 01:19:28,080
Speaker 1: golf on Sundays while I was living in New York City.

1455
01:19:28,120 --> 01:19:30,080
Speaker 1: That was just not something I was doing. So I

1456
01:19:30,280 --> 01:19:33,360
Speaker 1: missed a lot and a big hole in my sports,

1457
01:19:34,360 --> 01:19:39,120
Speaker 1: um background knowledge whatever is that early two thousand's. I

1458
01:19:39,479 --> 01:19:43,719
Speaker 1: just I was never into Tiger, And I know that's crazy.

1459
01:19:43,960 --> 01:19:49,040
Speaker 1: It's gonna sound insane. He's one of the most recognizable, famous, popular,

1460
01:19:49,120 --> 01:19:53,640
Speaker 1: successful athletes in the last fifty years. But I mean

1461
01:19:54,640 --> 01:19:58,560
Speaker 1: a lot of his downfall I was into, uh, you know,

1462
01:19:58,600 --> 01:20:01,160
Speaker 1: I had started the website and he was a click

1463
01:20:01,960 --> 01:20:06,519
Speaker 1: gold mine. All this stuff about um, you know, hooking

1464
01:20:06,600 --> 01:20:10,160
Speaker 1: up with that waitress from Perkins. Now, the troubling thing

1465
01:20:10,200 --> 01:20:12,240
Speaker 1: about that is they did now, Ralph, I don't know

1466
01:20:12,280 --> 01:20:14,439
Speaker 1: if you knew this, but they had video of Tiger

1467
01:20:15,320 --> 01:20:19,479
Speaker 1: um with her following his car and the Tiger getting

1468
01:20:19,520 --> 01:20:22,439
Speaker 1: out and then I'm going to hook up in the vehicle,

1469
01:20:22,600 --> 01:20:25,240
Speaker 1: Like had you seen that video? Yeah, I heard about

1470
01:20:25,280 --> 01:20:28,200
Speaker 1: that stuff. I mean again, I lived two miles away

1471
01:20:28,240 --> 01:20:30,640
Speaker 1: from him for a number of years in Orlando, so

1472
01:20:30,800 --> 01:20:33,080
Speaker 1: I mean this was this was there. I mean, to me,

1473
01:20:33,200 --> 01:20:36,240
Speaker 1: it was like talking about New York Giants they won

1474
01:20:36,320 --> 01:20:38,639
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, or you can obsess over their nine

1475
01:20:38,680 --> 01:20:42,080
Speaker 1: and seven regular season. The thing about the dock that

1476
01:20:42,160 --> 01:20:44,240
Speaker 1: I think and Ralph, I don't know if you agree

1477
01:20:44,280 --> 01:20:47,479
Speaker 1: with this, but Tiger to me is the most dominant

1478
01:20:47,560 --> 01:20:51,639
Speaker 1: athlete in his sport of all time. I know, there's

1479
01:20:51,720 --> 01:20:54,280
Speaker 1: never been another athlete that was so much better than

1480
01:20:54,360 --> 01:20:57,120
Speaker 1: the number two. Okay, would you agree with that? Ralph

1481
01:20:57,479 --> 01:21:01,360
Speaker 1: for his air, absolutely clearly there is a lot of interest.

1482
01:21:01,400 --> 01:21:03,439
Speaker 1: I didn't realize you guys were that into this. Okay,

1483
01:21:03,680 --> 01:21:05,120
Speaker 1: So we're gonna have to touch on this a little

1484
01:21:05,120 --> 01:21:06,519
Speaker 1: bit later because coming up next, you know, we got

1485
01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:08,920
Speaker 1: a guest to talk about Tom Brady. But we're gonna

1486
01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:12,360
Speaker 1: revisit this um the Tiger Woods dock. Listen, I'm gonna

1487
01:21:12,400 --> 01:21:14,240
Speaker 1: have to do some more homework, but coming up next,

Speaker 1: the Tom Brady Podcast, Gary Myers from New York City. Gary,

1512
01:22:32,920 --> 01:22:34,920
Speaker 1: how are you this afternoon? Now? Sorry, I was gonna

1513
01:22:34,920 --> 01:22:39,759
Speaker 1: say morning. I'm doing good. How are you? I finished

1514
01:22:39,800 --> 01:22:43,720
Speaker 1: watching the second part of the Tiger Woods documentary last night.

1515
01:22:43,840 --> 01:22:46,320
Speaker 1: Was very good. Yeah, yeah, well I got you here. Well,

1516
01:22:46,400 --> 01:22:48,080
Speaker 1: let's let me ask you your thoughts on that. So

1517
01:22:48,920 --> 01:22:51,400
Speaker 1: I was not a huge Tiger guy. I was in

1518
01:22:51,439 --> 01:22:53,560
Speaker 1: New York City, you know, kind of being young and

1519
01:22:53,680 --> 01:22:56,599
Speaker 1: dumb in the early two thousand's, So I wasn't watching

1520
01:22:56,680 --> 01:22:59,080
Speaker 1: a ton of golf. You're a longtime New York columnist,

1521
01:22:59,640 --> 01:23:02,439
Speaker 1: Um were you? Were you aware that there was really

1522
01:23:02,520 --> 01:23:04,680
Speaker 1: no new ground broken here? Or did some of it

1523
01:23:04,760 --> 01:23:08,000
Speaker 1: feel new to you? You know the part that felt

1524
01:23:08,080 --> 01:23:12,519
Speaker 1: And I knew about um what kind of domineering, um

1525
01:23:13,240 --> 01:23:19,160
Speaker 1: helicopter type father Earl Woods was, but I wasn't really.

1526
01:23:20,080 --> 01:23:23,160
Speaker 1: I thought what I learned in this one was really

1527
01:23:23,280 --> 01:23:29,519
Speaker 1: how how strict he was and and guiding Tiger's career

1528
01:23:29,680 --> 01:23:32,680
Speaker 1: even more than I had imagined and I wound up

1529
01:23:32,760 --> 01:23:36,360
Speaker 1: feeling sorry for him about what his early years were like,

1530
01:23:36,640 --> 01:23:39,679
Speaker 1: you know, through his teen years that his father didn't

1531
01:23:39,760 --> 01:23:42,200
Speaker 1: let him be a kid, and you know how that

1532
01:23:42,280 --> 01:23:45,760
Speaker 1: impacted him as he went through his troubled period. You know,

1533
01:23:45,880 --> 01:23:48,479
Speaker 1: only he knows, but I thought that was that was

1534
01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:52,800
Speaker 1: really interesting and UM and most of the other stuff

1535
01:23:52,840 --> 01:23:55,920
Speaker 1: I did know and UM, you know, the one thing

1536
01:23:56,000 --> 01:24:01,360
Speaker 1: they didn't mention about UM, this woman Rachel could tell

1537
01:24:01,400 --> 01:24:04,320
Speaker 1: I think the way you're pronounced is that her her

1538
01:24:04,479 --> 01:24:10,080
Speaker 1: husband passed away in nine eleven. And when the story

1539
01:24:10,200 --> 01:24:12,120
Speaker 1: first came out that she was the one he was

1540
01:24:12,200 --> 01:24:15,559
Speaker 1: having an affair with UM, one of the New York

1541
01:24:15,600 --> 01:24:19,840
Speaker 1: papers ran back a picture that they had published right

1542
01:24:19,920 --> 01:24:23,760
Speaker 1: after nine eleven where she was like standing on a

1543
01:24:23,840 --> 01:24:27,479
Speaker 1: street corner with one of those you know those posters

1544
01:24:27,560 --> 01:24:29,400
Speaker 1: that you know the world in the city at that time.

1545
01:24:29,720 --> 01:24:31,439
Speaker 1: Have you seen this man kind of thing in a

1546
01:24:31,960 --> 01:24:34,519
Speaker 1: picture of her husband? And then it turned out she

1547
01:24:34,760 --> 01:24:36,760
Speaker 1: was the one, you know, ten years or so later,

1548
01:24:36,920 --> 01:24:39,559
Speaker 1: that I was having this a fair with Tiger. They

1549
01:24:39,600 --> 01:24:41,479
Speaker 1: didn't mention that part of it. Last night, I was

1550
01:24:41,520 --> 01:24:43,840
Speaker 1: kind of surprised about that. Yeah, you're right, I I

1551
01:24:44,080 --> 01:24:46,559
Speaker 1: you can see that if you google image, Rachel ok

1552
01:24:46,680 --> 01:24:50,000
Speaker 1: Tell looks very different. I guess it was all the

1553
01:24:50,040 --> 01:24:53,839
Speaker 1: surgery and stuff. It's weird though, Uh Gary on Tiger,

1554
01:24:54,280 --> 01:24:58,439
Speaker 1: you know he needed that helicopter Dad's stuff to become

1555
01:24:58,520 --> 01:25:01,320
Speaker 1: the great golfer, and then it was it ended up

1556
01:25:01,360 --> 01:25:04,120
Speaker 1: not only being blessing but a curse as well, because

1557
01:25:04,439 --> 01:25:08,000
Speaker 1: it wrecked him off the golf course. When they showed

1558
01:25:08,080 --> 01:25:11,920
Speaker 1: the video of him like a three year old hitting

1559
01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:14,439
Speaker 1: ball into a net, he hit it better at three

1560
01:25:14,479 --> 01:25:18,280
Speaker 1: than I can hit it now. It's it's pretty amazing.

1561
01:25:18,439 --> 01:25:21,639
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously, you know his career, his career has

1562
01:25:21,720 --> 01:25:26,120
Speaker 1: been sidetracked by you know, the marital problems in that

1563
01:25:26,240 --> 01:25:30,879
Speaker 1: car accident and and all these surgeries that he's had. Otherwise,

1564
01:25:31,080 --> 01:25:32,760
Speaker 1: if that stuff didn't come a boat, I think he

1565
01:25:32,840 --> 01:25:36,840
Speaker 1: certainly would have gotten to nineteen majors and broken Jack

1566
01:25:36,960 --> 01:25:39,760
Speaker 1: Nicholas's record. Yeah, all right, let's get to another great

1567
01:25:39,840 --> 01:25:44,519
Speaker 1: athlete of the last fifty hundred forever all time, Tom Brady,

1568
01:25:44,920 --> 01:25:48,160
Speaker 1: gunning for another trip to the Super Bowl, and you're

1569
01:25:48,200 --> 01:25:52,720
Speaker 1: hosting an iHeart I Heart Radio podcast about Brady the goat. Um.

1570
01:25:53,360 --> 01:25:55,639
Speaker 1: I don't know where are you right? Now on tom

1571
01:25:55,720 --> 01:25:59,439
Speaker 1: he leaves New England and everybody's like, oh wow, we'll

1572
01:25:59,479 --> 01:26:01,720
Speaker 1: see if he can do well in Tampa and bing

1573
01:26:01,840 --> 01:26:05,519
Speaker 1: bang boom. He's in the NFC title game. Yeah, you know,

1574
01:26:05,640 --> 01:26:07,719
Speaker 1: I can't. I mean, I guess I'm a little surprised

1575
01:26:07,760 --> 01:26:10,040
Speaker 1: that he's made it this far. But I thought the

1576
01:26:10,080 --> 01:26:12,759
Speaker 1: Bucks would do well this year. They were ready made team,

1577
01:26:13,479 --> 01:26:15,360
Speaker 1: you know, with all the offensive talent that they had.

1578
01:26:15,439 --> 01:26:17,240
Speaker 1: They had a good defense. I mean it's not a

1579
01:26:18,000 --> 01:26:20,800
Speaker 1: shutdown defense, but it's good enough to win a championship.

1580
01:26:21,360 --> 01:26:24,240
Speaker 1: You know. He walked into a situation, Jason, where the

1581
01:26:24,320 --> 01:26:27,439
Speaker 1: skill position players were probably the best he's never ever

1582
01:26:27,560 --> 01:26:31,360
Speaker 1: had as a group in his career, or at least

1583
01:26:31,680 --> 01:26:35,479
Speaker 1: on part somewhat with the Oh seven Patriots when he

1584
01:26:35,560 --> 01:26:40,800
Speaker 1: had Um Randy Mowson and West Walker Um. This group,

1585
01:26:41,680 --> 01:26:44,040
Speaker 1: the group of wide receivers, the tight ends that he has,

1586
01:26:44,560 --> 01:26:48,080
Speaker 1: two good running backs, a pretty good offensive mine. It

1587
01:26:48,240 --> 01:26:50,680
Speaker 1: was a situation where he can just walk in and

1588
01:26:51,080 --> 01:26:52,640
Speaker 1: play well. I mean it hurt him a little bit.

1589
01:26:52,680 --> 01:26:55,040
Speaker 1: Like I heard everybody that there's no off season this year,

1590
01:26:55,760 --> 01:26:58,360
Speaker 1: and which makes the fact that they've come together as

1591
01:26:58,479 --> 01:27:02,000
Speaker 1: quickly as they have, you know, even more amazing. Uh.

1592
01:27:02,080 --> 01:27:04,280
Speaker 1: And He's taken in an organization that had just a

1593
01:27:04,320 --> 01:27:08,120
Speaker 1: horrible reputation as being a bunch of losers and you know,

1594
01:27:08,280 --> 01:27:11,880
Speaker 1: losing his team in pro sports history, and in four months,

1595
01:27:13,120 --> 01:27:16,280
Speaker 1: he's changed the perspective of that organization, the perception of

1596
01:27:16,320 --> 01:27:19,840
Speaker 1: that organization, and the culture of that team in a

1597
01:27:19,960 --> 01:27:22,360
Speaker 1: such a short period of time. It just really shows,

1598
01:27:22,920 --> 01:27:26,400
Speaker 1: you know, the power of Tom Brady walking in and

1599
01:27:26,520 --> 01:27:30,439
Speaker 1: having immediate respect in that locker room and being a

1600
01:27:30,520 --> 01:27:36,400
Speaker 1: great leader and having you know, those six championships players

1601
01:27:36,520 --> 01:27:39,600
Speaker 1: just brought in immediately to what he was selling. Is

1602
01:27:39,680 --> 01:27:42,479
Speaker 1: it interesting to you, Gary that we're watching him go

1603
01:27:42,600 --> 01:27:45,400
Speaker 1: up against Aaron Rodgers, a guy who couldn't get the

1604
01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:48,760
Speaker 1: Packers to draft so much as a wide receiver, right,

1605
01:27:49,280 --> 01:27:52,360
Speaker 1: And Tom Brady goes to Tampa and says, hey, let's

1606
01:27:52,400 --> 01:27:54,920
Speaker 1: get Grounk out of retirement. Oh let's go grab Antonio Brown,

1607
01:27:55,439 --> 01:27:58,400
Speaker 1: and oh let's go grab Leonard four Nette. Like Brady

1608
01:27:58,600 --> 01:28:01,920
Speaker 1: pretty quickly made this team what he wanted, you know,

1609
01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:03,559
Speaker 1: Like I know, Bruce Arians is a bit of an

1610
01:28:03,560 --> 01:28:06,880
Speaker 1: alpha and he's the head coach, But to me, this

1611
01:28:07,080 --> 01:28:10,960
Speaker 1: is already Tom Brady's team. Yeah, I mean for million

1612
01:28:11,000 --> 01:28:13,320
Speaker 1: dollars a year. I think there five or six million

1613
01:28:13,360 --> 01:28:16,679
Speaker 1: dollars included in that. That he is now the general

1614
01:28:16,760 --> 01:28:21,320
Speaker 1: manager of the team as well, because all those moves. Now,

1615
01:28:21,439 --> 01:28:23,519
Speaker 1: I think that the books was smart enough. They know

1616
01:28:23,720 --> 01:28:26,519
Speaker 1: that this window is not for the next ten years,

1617
01:28:27,040 --> 01:28:29,479
Speaker 1: that they have probably a two year window here that

1618
01:28:29,600 --> 01:28:32,479
Speaker 1: Brady can play at this level, you know, maybe three years,

1619
01:28:33,080 --> 01:28:36,120
Speaker 1: so you better take advantage of it. And they did

1620
01:28:36,160 --> 01:28:40,280
Speaker 1: a really good job giving him the pieces that he wants. Now.

1621
01:28:40,360 --> 01:28:43,120
Speaker 1: Gronk hasn't had a big year, but he is definitely

1622
01:28:43,240 --> 01:28:46,479
Speaker 1: the security blanket. When all else fails, he'll just look

1623
01:28:46,560 --> 01:28:50,200
Speaker 1: for Gronk and or the Brown won't play tomorrow. He

1624
01:28:50,360 --> 01:28:52,840
Speaker 1: has made some He made the big play in the

1625
01:28:53,000 --> 01:28:55,800
Speaker 1: second Atlantic game where they came from way back and

1626
01:28:55,840 --> 01:28:59,240
Speaker 1: he caught the winning touchdown pass. So he's he's certainly

1627
01:28:59,360 --> 01:29:03,800
Speaker 1: capable of breaking at at any point. Um and I listen,

1628
01:29:03,840 --> 01:29:05,640
Speaker 1: I don't know who's gonna win tomorrow. I'm really bad

1629
01:29:05,680 --> 01:29:09,120
Speaker 1: at picking games, but I give them a chance for

1630
01:29:09,240 --> 01:29:12,120
Speaker 1: two reasons. One is that um, I mean, I give

1631
01:29:12,200 --> 01:29:13,720
Speaker 1: him a good chance for two reasons. One is that

1632
01:29:13,760 --> 01:29:15,920
Speaker 1: Braid is used to playing in the cold, and he's

1633
01:29:15,960 --> 01:29:19,240
Speaker 1: just got to convince his teammates too. You know, mind

1634
01:29:19,280 --> 01:29:21,200
Speaker 1: over matter here, just put it out of your mind.

1635
01:29:21,800 --> 01:29:23,640
Speaker 1: You know, we want to get to Super Bowl, win

1636
01:29:23,760 --> 01:29:25,800
Speaker 1: three games to get back home. We knew one of

1637
01:29:25,840 --> 01:29:28,080
Speaker 1: them was going to be in Green Bay. The second

1638
01:29:28,120 --> 01:29:30,160
Speaker 1: thing is, I don't know what percentage of fans are

1639
01:29:30,160 --> 01:29:33,440
Speaker 1: allowing into lambeau Field, but it's not a big percentage.

1640
01:29:33,760 --> 01:29:37,599
Speaker 1: And there's such a mystique in January at lambeau Field,

1641
01:29:37,640 --> 01:29:41,680
Speaker 1: the playoffs history. The fans there are sold loyal and

1642
01:29:41,720 --> 01:29:45,120
Speaker 1: supportive of the Packers and with that, without that element there,

1643
01:29:46,400 --> 01:29:48,679
Speaker 1: I really think it's a huge advantage for the Bucks

1644
01:29:48,760 --> 01:29:51,519
Speaker 1: not having to walk into these hostile stadiums like the

1645
01:29:51,560 --> 01:29:54,160
Speaker 1: same thing that happened in the Superdome last week. They're

1646
01:29:54,160 --> 01:29:56,759
Speaker 1: able to call their offense, you know, without a silent account,

1647
01:29:56,800 --> 01:30:00,560
Speaker 1: which you can't do with the Superdome under normal circumstances

1648
01:30:00,600 --> 01:30:03,719
Speaker 1: in a regular season, no less the playoffs. So wouldn't

1649
01:30:03,720 --> 01:30:06,880
Speaker 1: they think three games on the road? Uh? Not. A

1650
01:30:06,960 --> 01:30:10,080
Speaker 1: lot of teams have done it, but nobody's had to

1651
01:30:10,080 --> 01:30:13,960
Speaker 1: advantage the Bucks have had of doing this before relatively

1652
01:30:14,080 --> 01:30:16,960
Speaker 1: empty stadiums, and and that's a big thing. All right, carry,

1653
01:30:16,960 --> 01:30:18,720
Speaker 1: I'll get you out of here on this one. When

1654
01:30:18,800 --> 01:30:22,760
Speaker 1: you look at Brady leaving New England and how far

1655
01:30:22,920 --> 01:30:25,040
Speaker 1: the Patriots fell this year. I know they had the

1656
01:30:25,120 --> 01:30:27,920
Speaker 1: COVID opt outs, but it's pretty clear he wanted the

1657
01:30:27,960 --> 01:30:31,800
Speaker 1: break up with Belichick. Do you think if Belichick had

1658
01:30:31,880 --> 01:30:34,320
Speaker 1: to do it all over again, and this is gonna

1659
01:30:34,360 --> 01:30:37,679
Speaker 1: sound simple, he would have been nicer to Tom Brady

1660
01:30:37,760 --> 01:30:41,120
Speaker 1: instead of belittling him to the point that Giselle complained

1661
01:30:41,160 --> 01:30:45,439
Speaker 1: to Robert Kraft about the constant negativity that Belichick would

1662
01:30:45,479 --> 01:30:47,479
Speaker 1: fire at her husband. Do you think Belichick would have

1663
01:30:47,479 --> 01:30:50,479
Speaker 1: done it differently and Tom could have stayed well? I

1664
01:30:50,680 --> 01:30:53,519
Speaker 1: think that he had reached the point where there were

1665
01:30:53,600 --> 01:30:57,280
Speaker 1: a lot of factors that it caused him to leave,

1666
01:30:57,880 --> 01:31:00,519
Speaker 1: not the least of which is that even if Belichick

1667
01:31:00,560 --> 01:31:03,280
Speaker 1: had given him the same contract that the Bucks did,

1668
01:31:03,400 --> 01:31:06,360
Speaker 1: that um Belichick didn't want to go more than a

1669
01:31:06,520 --> 01:31:10,120
Speaker 1: year year to year, Tom still look around there and said, Okay,

1670
01:31:10,120 --> 01:31:12,799
Speaker 1: who am I throwing the ball to, which is exactly

1671
01:31:12,840 --> 01:31:14,920
Speaker 1: the problem that Cam Newton had this year and what

1672
01:31:15,080 --> 01:31:18,120
Speaker 1: Tom had last year. That I don't think he felt

1673
01:31:18,160 --> 01:31:23,719
Speaker 1: he could win there. And even if Belichick had treated

1674
01:31:23,760 --> 01:31:26,200
Speaker 1: him with the respect that he deserved the last few years.

1675
01:31:26,760 --> 01:31:28,920
Speaker 1: I think the twenty years kind of wore him down,

1676
01:31:29,680 --> 01:31:34,519
Speaker 1: and he was just he was just really curious to say, Okay,

1677
01:31:34,840 --> 01:31:36,800
Speaker 1: I've been in the same place for twenty years, the

1678
01:31:36,840 --> 01:31:39,599
Speaker 1: same system, the same coach. What is it like somewhere

1679
01:31:39,640 --> 01:31:43,120
Speaker 1: else will be more fun? And yeah, by the way,

1680
01:31:43,160 --> 01:31:46,800
Speaker 1: he wanted to live in warm weather, and he was

1681
01:31:46,880 --> 01:31:48,840
Speaker 1: in Michigan for five years, in New England for twenty.

1682
01:31:48,920 --> 01:31:51,840
Speaker 1: So that's twenty five years for a California kid in

1683
01:31:52,200 --> 01:31:55,240
Speaker 1: brutal winter weather. And he's really enjoyed wearing shorts this

1684
01:31:55,360 --> 01:31:57,240
Speaker 1: time of the year. So I don't I don't know

1685
01:31:57,320 --> 01:31:59,720
Speaker 1: if Belichick had changed his approach to him the last

1686
01:31:59,760 --> 01:32:01,920
Speaker 1: few years, if it would have made a difference. I

1687
01:32:02,000 --> 01:32:04,680
Speaker 1: think it was the cumulative effect of being there for

1688
01:32:04,760 --> 01:32:07,920
Speaker 1: twenty years that Tom just had enough. Okay, Gary Meyers,

1694
01:32:27,040 --> 01:32:31,679
Speaker 1: similar to Tiger, similar to Lebron, Like, enjoy these guys

1695
01:32:32,320 --> 01:32:36,720
Speaker 1: while you have them, because when it's over, man, that's

1696
01:32:36,760 --> 01:32:40,000
Speaker 1: gonna be rough. Like we you can't just fill the

1697
01:32:40,080 --> 01:32:42,040
Speaker 1: void with another Tom Brady. It doesn't work like that

1698
01:32:43,120 --> 01:32:46,080
Speaker 1: another Lebron. These guys just come around once, not even

1699
01:32:46,160 --> 01:32:49,560
Speaker 1: a generation. Forget generation, is it once in like a

Speaker 1: Woods documentary. Also, um, I wonder what people think hearing

1703
01:33:02,240 --> 01:33:04,360
Speaker 1: Tiger Woods documentary. I know he's kind of old news,

1704
01:33:04,960 --> 01:33:07,679
Speaker 1: but I think we can have a good conversation around it. Also,

Speaker 1: we will rank the NFL head coaching hires. We know

1721
01:34:13,120 --> 01:34:17,439
Speaker 1: Like animal thing going on insect underwater. I have no idea.

1722
01:34:17,960 --> 01:34:21,920
Speaker 1: And then of course the Star Wars trilogy, so epic.

1723
01:34:24,040 --> 01:34:26,479
Speaker 1: All right, let's quickly go back to the Tiger Woods thing. So,

1724
01:34:26,600 --> 01:34:32,080
Speaker 1: Ralph Irvin, I need to ask you this. Um, I

1725
01:34:32,360 --> 01:34:38,160
Speaker 1: I enjoyed the the Tiger Dock. UM. A lot of

1726
01:34:38,240 --> 01:34:40,000
Speaker 1: it was new ground for me. I guess I would

1727
01:34:40,000 --> 01:34:43,920
Speaker 1: be qualify as a casual at best golf fan. Um.

1728
01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:46,679
Speaker 1: I've probably played more golf in my life than I've watched,

1729
01:34:48,479 --> 01:34:53,840
Speaker 1: and I don't know it didn't make me feel a

1730
01:34:54,240 --> 01:34:58,320
Speaker 1: little bit sympathetic to Tiger as opposed to oh man,

1731
01:34:58,400 --> 01:35:01,439
Speaker 1: this is rich idiot who's talented, just ruined his life

1732
01:35:01,439 --> 01:35:04,599
Speaker 1: by cheating with a bunch of strippers and call girls.

1733
01:35:04,880 --> 01:35:08,000
Speaker 1: What a moron and his wife was very attractive, seemed

1734
01:35:08,000 --> 01:35:13,120
Speaker 1: like a great person. Tigers Tigers a jerk and um,

1735
01:35:13,280 --> 01:35:15,360
Speaker 1: I don't know, Ralph, what did you take away any

1736
01:35:15,439 --> 01:35:17,360
Speaker 1: of that? Or did this not change your mind at

1737
01:35:17,360 --> 01:35:22,719
Speaker 1: all as a big golf guy. Oh, Ralph is not available.

1738
01:35:22,720 --> 01:35:26,479
Speaker 1: He's doing updates right now. But I do think that anyone,

1739
01:35:26,800 --> 01:35:29,719
Speaker 1: especially the biggest Tiger fans, I don't think this changed

1740
01:35:30,320 --> 01:35:33,520
Speaker 1: any opinion of them, just like the Michael Jordan documentary,

1741
01:35:33,600 --> 01:35:36,840
Speaker 1: didn't you know You're gonna be stuck in wherever you

1742
01:35:36,920 --> 01:35:40,960
Speaker 1: are on that? And Tiger the documentary, as Ralph noted earlier,

1743
01:35:41,040 --> 01:35:44,200
Speaker 1: it hasn't shown anything we didn't already know, but it

1744
01:35:44,320 --> 01:35:47,000
Speaker 1: has put it together in a beautiful manner that it's

1745
01:35:47,200 --> 01:35:49,840
Speaker 1: you know, maybe I forgot, but had you seen the

1746
01:35:51,200 --> 01:35:54,640
Speaker 1: police video of him when he was popped up on

1747
01:35:54,760 --> 01:35:58,120
Speaker 1: like five different pills and they were like, I need

1748
01:35:58,160 --> 01:36:00,680
Speaker 1: you to touch your head back and say the alphabet

1749
01:36:01,280 --> 01:36:03,400
Speaker 1: and then Tiger like didn't respond. They're like, can you

1750
01:36:03,479 --> 01:36:05,439
Speaker 1: repeat what I have to do? And he's like, don't

1751
01:36:05,560 --> 01:36:08,720
Speaker 1: say the national anthem backwards? And you're like, yeah, I

1752
01:36:08,720 --> 01:36:11,280
Speaker 1: don't know. He was the hell was he on? He

1753
01:36:11,439 --> 01:36:16,360
Speaker 1: was on several different pain killers. Yeah, no, it's uh,

1754
01:36:16,920 --> 01:36:21,599
Speaker 1: I am curious the whole double life angle. Um. That's

1755
01:36:21,680 --> 01:36:24,160
Speaker 1: by the way, that's what makes it so impressive. What

1756
01:36:24,360 --> 01:36:29,280
Speaker 1: he was doing was he was the greatest golfer of

1757
01:36:29,479 --> 01:36:34,880
Speaker 1: his era while leading a double, triple, quadruple like, So,

1758
01:36:35,000 --> 01:36:40,920
Speaker 1: do you think that makes him his accomplishments even greater

1759
01:36:41,400 --> 01:36:43,920
Speaker 1: or do you view it as man imagine if he

1760
01:36:44,120 --> 01:36:46,519
Speaker 1: didn't have all that junk going on, he would have

1761
01:36:46,560 --> 01:36:49,080
Speaker 1: been even better. Well, who knows. Maybe that stuff is

1762
01:36:49,120 --> 01:36:51,320
Speaker 1: what made him. That's the thing that's what makes it.

1763
01:36:51,640 --> 01:36:54,320
Speaker 1: He talked about having to clear his head and Rachel

1764
01:36:54,360 --> 01:36:57,040
Speaker 1: you could tell, helped him clear his head. And you know,

1765
01:36:57,200 --> 01:37:02,120
Speaker 1: maybe that kind of messed up you know, craziness helped

1766
01:37:02,240 --> 01:37:04,760
Speaker 1: him on the you know, I don't know, but it's

1767
01:37:05,000 --> 01:37:07,000
Speaker 1: it is phenomenal that he was able to do that.

1768
01:37:07,400 --> 01:37:10,599
Speaker 1: But didn't he win a ton before all the vegas

1769
01:37:10,680 --> 01:37:13,280
Speaker 1: madness started? Wasn't he winning that? He was already great?

1770
01:37:13,360 --> 01:37:17,680
Speaker 1: But his dad when with his dad's passing, that's what

1771
01:37:18,160 --> 01:37:23,240
Speaker 1: made everything spiral, Ralph, I think is back. Yes, I

1772
01:37:23,320 --> 01:37:26,000
Speaker 1: will say. The other thing is like as a father

1773
01:37:26,160 --> 01:37:30,160
Speaker 1: of a young couple of kids, Um, man, it definitely

1774
01:37:30,200 --> 01:37:32,040
Speaker 1: makes you want to pull back and not be that

1775
01:37:32,200 --> 01:37:36,679
Speaker 1: guy because his dad, like you don't want your kids

1776
01:37:37,439 --> 01:37:42,760
Speaker 1: down the thirty years from now being like, man, I'm

1777
01:37:43,320 --> 01:37:46,200
Speaker 1: I want to be like my dad. And my dad

1778
01:37:46,280 --> 01:37:48,200
Speaker 1: was an awful human being, which I think we can

1779
01:37:48,280 --> 01:37:50,439
Speaker 1: agree his dad was a pretty awful person. We can

1780
01:37:50,520 --> 01:37:56,160
Speaker 1: agree on that, right, Ralph, No, no, no, Tiger Woods

1781
01:37:56,200 --> 01:38:00,519
Speaker 1: is extremely successful in living in an amazing life. I mean,

1782
01:38:00,800 --> 01:38:03,639
Speaker 1: is that not true? Has there been bumps on the road,

1783
01:38:03,680 --> 01:38:08,040
Speaker 1: of course, But you can't exactly say he's failed. He

1784
01:38:08,320 --> 01:38:10,960
Speaker 1: I mean, this is not Todd Marinovitch we're talking about here.

1785
01:38:12,160 --> 01:38:16,080
Speaker 1: We're talking about Tiger Woods. He has yacht he has estates,

1786
01:38:16,120 --> 01:38:20,439
Speaker 1: he has buildings, he has businesses, he has a family success.

1787
01:38:21,160 --> 01:38:23,360
Speaker 1: He he has kids that he loves that love him.

1788
01:38:23,439 --> 01:38:28,519
Speaker 1: I mean, he's had situation, sure, but he can't say

1789
01:38:28,560 --> 01:38:30,640
Speaker 1: that he's an awful, horrible person because of what he

1790
01:38:30,720 --> 01:38:34,040
Speaker 1: did to Tiger My goodness, he succeeded in in in

1791
01:38:34,200 --> 01:38:38,160
Speaker 1: doing what he did, and that it's it's it's hard

1792
01:38:38,240 --> 01:38:40,680
Speaker 1: to you know. Again, you can say that there's all

1793
01:38:40,760 --> 01:38:42,840
Speaker 1: sorts of flaws with the guy. Absolutely, you can say

1794
01:38:42,880 --> 01:38:46,040
Speaker 1: there's horrible things. But you can't then say that he

1795
01:38:46,240 --> 01:38:49,640
Speaker 1: failed or he did bad things by Tiger when you

1796
01:38:49,680 --> 01:38:52,120
Speaker 1: look at the end result of Tiger. And that's the

1797
01:38:52,240 --> 01:38:55,160
Speaker 1: problem with the documentary when you've got the high school

1798
01:38:55,200 --> 01:38:58,479
Speaker 1: girlfriend saying how awful everything was that they did for Tiger.

1799
01:38:58,680 --> 01:39:00,840
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, look at Tiger Woods right now. You tell

1800
01:39:00,920 --> 01:39:03,840
Speaker 1: me if it's awful. I don't know. He has no friends. Um,

1801
01:39:04,720 --> 01:39:06,479
Speaker 1: all he's got is a bunch of fans who don't

1802
01:39:06,600 --> 01:39:09,000
Speaker 1: know him. That's but but that's not true. He does

1803
01:39:09,080 --> 01:39:13,280
Speaker 1: have friends. They've shown, That's why they're not in the documentary.

1804
01:39:14,280 --> 01:39:16,280
Speaker 1: They've shown on a lot of the recent you know,

1805
01:39:16,800 --> 01:39:19,240
Speaker 1: you know golfing right now, he's been very friendly on

1806
01:39:19,280 --> 01:39:20,920
Speaker 1: the course and looks like he has a lot of friends.

1807
01:39:21,040 --> 01:39:23,280
Speaker 1: It's a little bit like Lance Armstrong. He has a

1808
01:39:23,320 --> 01:39:26,639
Speaker 1: lot of friends. But again, what defined friend Like, Yeah,

1809
01:39:26,760 --> 01:39:28,840
Speaker 1: somebody smiles and gives him a knuck off fist bump

1810
01:39:28,920 --> 01:39:31,200
Speaker 1: on the golf course. Um, guys that call him up

1811
01:39:31,360 --> 01:39:35,360
Speaker 1: and he mentors, Yeah, from the growth perspective, not from

1812
01:39:35,439 --> 01:39:40,560
Speaker 1: a human perspective. So you don't have business associates that

1813
01:39:40,600 --> 01:39:42,160
Speaker 1: are your friends. I mean, that's what a lot of

1814
01:39:42,200 --> 01:39:44,120
Speaker 1: people's friends are based onf I mean, it's easy to

1815
01:39:44,200 --> 01:39:48,080
Speaker 1: be friends with a multimillionaire who's probably borderline billionaire. Do

1816
01:39:48,200 --> 01:39:49,960
Speaker 1: they want to be with Tiger because he's a good

1817
01:39:50,080 --> 01:39:52,719
Speaker 1: person or because that he can help them get something,

1818
01:39:52,760 --> 01:39:55,760
Speaker 1: whether it's better at golf or something financial. So when

1819
01:39:55,800 --> 01:39:58,480
Speaker 1: they call him, when he calls them be and congratulates

1820
01:39:58,520 --> 01:40:02,479
Speaker 1: them on their successes, that's not a friend. I think

1821
01:40:02,520 --> 01:40:05,800
Speaker 1: we're getting lost in like we're saying Justin Johnson is

1822
01:40:05,840 --> 01:40:07,920
Speaker 1: a great like. I mean a lot of these guys

1823
01:40:07,960 --> 01:40:10,960
Speaker 1: are jerks. They're not super. Yeah, I don't know judge

1824
01:40:12,400 --> 01:40:15,479
Speaker 1: Paulina Gretzky stuff, but but I don't judge people like

1825
01:40:15,680 --> 01:40:18,800
Speaker 1: I don't think that's so we're judging him now. I

1826
01:40:19,080 --> 01:40:21,439
Speaker 1: don't know, Jason, you brought it up. I don't judge

1827
01:40:22,439 --> 01:40:26,160
Speaker 1: based on what you've what the documentary shows, and that's

1828
01:40:26,160 --> 01:40:29,400
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It's it's completely flawed. You know. This

1829
01:40:29,640 --> 01:40:31,320
Speaker 1: is where I go back to the New York Giants

1830
01:40:31,360 --> 01:40:35,120
Speaker 1: analogy is the journalists who are in the piece will

1831
01:40:35,280 --> 01:40:37,639
Speaker 1: the thing that they'll say is there's nothing in there

1832
01:40:37,680 --> 01:40:41,240
Speaker 1: that isn't true. Okay, it's not that's fine. The New

1833
01:40:41,320 --> 01:40:45,000
Speaker 1: York Giants were nine and seven in eleven. They lost

1834
01:40:45,040 --> 01:40:48,920
Speaker 1: to a five and eleven Washington Redskins team twice that year,

1835
01:40:50,040 --> 01:40:52,560
Speaker 1: but they won the Super Bowl. That's what matters. So

1836
01:40:52,800 --> 01:40:55,240
Speaker 1: is there so is there stuff that was in the

1837
01:40:55,320 --> 01:40:58,240
Speaker 1: documentary that was not true? No, everything in there is true.

1838
01:40:58,600 --> 01:41:00,960
Speaker 1: But there's also a ton of stuff that is very

1839
01:41:01,040 --> 01:41:03,639
Speaker 1: true also that was not in the documentary. So if

1840
01:41:03,680 --> 01:41:06,960
Speaker 1: everything because it's not giving, you're not given access to it.

1841
01:41:07,240 --> 01:41:10,439
Speaker 1: So if everything and there's true about the dad, this

1842
01:41:10,640 --> 01:41:13,519
Speaker 1: takeaway is still he's a good person. Well, how would

1843
01:41:13,520 --> 01:41:15,320
Speaker 1: you you know what's true about the dad? Did you

1844
01:41:15,439 --> 01:41:18,439
Speaker 1: did the mom talk in the documentary? No? Did Tiger

1845
01:41:18,520 --> 01:41:22,000
Speaker 1: talk in the documentary? No? Do they know him best? Yes?

1846
01:41:22,479 --> 01:41:25,320
Speaker 1: So we have no idea about the total thing. We

1847
01:41:25,439 --> 01:41:29,879
Speaker 1: know the final result. The final result is Tiger Woods

1848
01:41:30,600 --> 01:41:33,679
Speaker 1: is Mohammad Ali of golf. He's Michael Jordan of golf.

1849
01:41:34,760 --> 01:41:37,400
Speaker 1: That's the result. And that's what his dad said would

1850
01:41:37,400 --> 01:41:40,800
Speaker 1: happen when Tiger was named college Golfer of the Year.

1851
01:41:42,120 --> 01:41:44,599
Speaker 1: So he was right. Well, I guess that's what's pretty

1852
01:41:44,640 --> 01:41:47,920
Speaker 1: cool is that you know multiple people can watch something

1853
01:41:47,960 --> 01:41:52,120
Speaker 1: and their takeaway can be dramatically different. Well, I mean again,

1854
01:41:52,200 --> 01:41:55,320
Speaker 1: this is you know, this coming from twenty five years

1855
01:41:55,400 --> 01:41:59,080
Speaker 1: of knowledge and following Tiger Woods. Also, yeah, I think

1856
01:41:59,120 --> 01:42:01,920
Speaker 1: it's a thing Jason, of your watching it, not coming

1857
01:42:02,000 --> 01:42:04,000
Speaker 1: into it with a lot of knowledge on Tiger, right,

1858
01:42:04,000 --> 01:42:08,960
Speaker 1: and definitely you're watching there. You know. It's a lot

1859
01:42:09,120 --> 01:42:11,080
Speaker 1: like how people watch news, you know, if you just

1860
01:42:11,160 --> 01:42:13,160
Speaker 1: take what they're telling you. But you guys did say

1861
01:42:13,280 --> 01:42:15,880
Speaker 1: that everything in there was factual. Yeah, but you could

1862
01:42:15,880 --> 01:42:19,519
Speaker 1: also do that about um, I don't know anything. Like

1863
01:42:19,760 --> 01:42:23,080
Speaker 1: if you just give certain facts, right, you're going to

1864
01:42:23,240 --> 01:42:25,519
Speaker 1: have one perception, but there's also another side, you know,

1865
01:42:27,600 --> 01:42:30,040
Speaker 1: both sides. I think we can agree it showed the

1866
01:42:30,200 --> 01:42:33,880
Speaker 1: good of Tiger's dad, but then they also the very bad. Sure,

1867
01:42:34,040 --> 01:42:35,479
Speaker 1: but I mean I hear I'll give you an example,

1868
01:42:35,680 --> 01:42:39,880
Speaker 1: is I could say Jason McIntyre doesn't work. Okay, I

1869
01:42:39,960 --> 01:42:42,439
Speaker 1: could say that. Wait, that's not factually correct. No, wait,

1870
01:42:42,520 --> 01:42:45,519
Speaker 1: wait wait, because I'm telling you from the perspective of

1871
01:42:45,600 --> 01:42:48,240
Speaker 1: everything that I'm saying. If I don't see you work,

1872
01:42:48,600 --> 01:42:51,200
Speaker 1: you know, if you're not involved in the documentary and

1873
01:42:51,280 --> 01:42:54,360
Speaker 1: someone says I just hear Jason McIntyre talk, I don't

1874
01:42:54,400 --> 01:42:57,800
Speaker 1: think he actually researches the point being is if they

1875
01:42:57,840 --> 01:43:01,599
Speaker 1: don't see you doing it, they don't you know, that's

1876
01:43:01,640 --> 01:43:05,439
Speaker 1: their perception. And everyone in this in this documentary is

1877
01:43:05,479 --> 01:43:09,720
Speaker 1: giving their perception. If you don't say no, no, hold on,

1878
01:43:09,760 --> 01:43:14,360
Speaker 1: hold on perception or their experiences with Tiger because we're

1879
01:43:14,400 --> 01:43:18,080
Speaker 1: all around him, right, it's both. But your example of

1880
01:43:18,160 --> 01:43:20,360
Speaker 1: Jason mcintires doesn't work. That's people who are on the

1881
01:43:20,360 --> 01:43:23,439
Speaker 1: outside who don't actually know me. Okay, but everyone in

1882
01:43:23,520 --> 01:43:26,040
Speaker 1: this documentary is outside of his family. But they were

1883
01:43:26,200 --> 01:43:30,600
Speaker 1: inside the Tiger Woods world. I mean, his Caddy was

1884
01:43:30,640 --> 01:43:33,120
Speaker 1: there for how many years, Williams was there for a while,

1885
01:43:34,479 --> 01:43:37,920
Speaker 1: Rachel Uktell hanging out with him from multiple years. I

1886
01:43:37,960 --> 01:43:40,960
Speaker 1: mean Tiger's team was flying her around the world so

1887
01:43:41,080 --> 01:43:44,040
Speaker 1: he could cheat on her and his wife with her. Um,

1888
01:43:46,040 --> 01:43:48,880
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, that's not unlike any professional

1889
01:43:48,960 --> 01:43:53,200
Speaker 1: athlete that I've known, baseball players that I know that

1890
01:43:53,320 --> 01:43:59,320
Speaker 1: have a girl in every city. Right, this is Tiger

1891
01:43:59,400 --> 01:44:02,519
Speaker 1: Woods in his team put out a he is super

1892
01:44:02,560 --> 01:44:05,920
Speaker 1: squeaky clean, he is the greatest guy. He's going on Oprah,

1893
01:44:05,960 --> 01:44:08,240
Speaker 1: He's going on the Today's Show. He's a family guy.

1894
01:44:08,320 --> 01:44:11,919
Speaker 1: He's like you put out one image and the reality

1895
01:44:12,120 --> 01:44:14,479
Speaker 1: was nothing close to it. Would that be? Is that

1896
01:44:14,600 --> 01:44:17,519
Speaker 1: a factual statement? I would say that's about every high

1897
01:44:17,560 --> 01:44:20,720
Speaker 1: profile athlete that's out there. That's what happened with the

1898
01:44:20,800 --> 01:44:24,559
Speaker 1: Last Dance. Well, no, that I we knew everything about

1899
01:44:24,640 --> 01:44:27,080
Speaker 1: Last Dance, right, we knew. We got a lot of

1900
01:44:27,280 --> 01:44:30,439
Speaker 1: stories from Michael Jordan's side that a lot of people

1901
01:44:30,520 --> 01:44:33,439
Speaker 1: have disputed. Well, the other thing about that is Michael

1902
01:44:33,479 --> 01:44:35,200
Speaker 1: Jordan had final say of what could go into it

1903
01:44:35,280 --> 01:44:38,120
Speaker 1: and what couldn't write. This was a little different in

1904
01:44:38,240 --> 01:44:41,800
Speaker 1: that Tiger had no say in what goes in and

1905
01:44:41,880 --> 01:44:45,840
Speaker 1: what doesn't. Yeah, so you're only getting that you are

1906
01:44:45,960 --> 01:44:49,960
Speaker 1: talking about somebody that ultimately is I don't need this documentary.

1907
01:44:50,080 --> 01:44:52,160
Speaker 1: I don't need the glory. I don't need There's no

1908
01:44:52,320 --> 01:44:54,639
Speaker 1: positive that's going to come from it. So why should

1909
01:44:54,640 --> 01:44:57,599
Speaker 1: I be involved unless I control it like Michael Jordan

1910
01:44:57,720 --> 01:45:00,719
Speaker 1: did with the Last Dance, And that that's the cost

1911
01:45:00,800 --> 01:45:04,000
Speaker 1: that you pay. You know, they say winners write the history,

1912
01:45:04,800 --> 01:45:08,040
Speaker 1: and ultimately, if you want the history of the winner,

1913
01:45:08,120 --> 01:45:09,920
Speaker 1: you got to talk to the winner and you got

1914
01:45:10,040 --> 01:45:13,519
Speaker 1: to give that person to say over their story is

1915
01:45:13,600 --> 01:45:15,439
Speaker 1: their story? We we gotta go to trending. We got

1916
01:45:15,520 --> 01:45:17,479
Speaker 1: a guest. The last thing I said, I texted a

1917
01:45:17,520 --> 01:45:22,519
Speaker 1: buddy who was in the Stanford fraternity with Tiger. UM. Uh,

1918
01:45:22,880 --> 01:45:25,080
Speaker 1: you know, Tiger's used his fake I d before. I'll

1919
01:45:25,080 --> 01:45:27,439
Speaker 1: just leave it at that. UM, and he's said a

1920
01:45:27,520 --> 01:45:29,960
Speaker 1: lot of the stuff that was in the documentary applied

1921
01:45:30,000 --> 01:45:35,040
Speaker 1: to Tiger at college. UM. Apparently, though the perception among

1922
01:45:35,120 --> 01:45:39,040
Speaker 1: the inner Tiger circle is it was a little skewed negative.

1923
01:45:39,040 --> 01:45:42,200
Speaker 1: I'm sure you would probably agree with that. UM, if

1924
01:45:42,240 --> 01:45:43,880
Speaker 1: you if you guys watch it. All right, let's let's

1925
01:45:43,880 --> 01:45:47,960
Speaker 1: go to trending. UM ralph Irvan was trending in sports. Well,

1926
01:45:48,000 --> 01:45:50,880
Speaker 1: we got to college basketball off and running here on

1927
01:45:51,200 --> 01:45:55,000
Speaker 1: this Saturday, and the big game. I would say, it's

1928
01:45:55,000 --> 01:45:57,400
Speaker 1: got to be the ranks match up on Fox. Number

1929
01:45:57,439 --> 01:46:01,400
Speaker 1: eleven Creighton hosting number twenty three eleven fifty two to

1930
01:46:01,479 --> 01:46:03,960
Speaker 1: play in the first half, they're tied at eight. Meanwhile,

1931
01:46:04,040 --> 01:46:07,639
Speaker 1: Number eight Houston leader as they play at Temple six

1932
01:46:07,720 --> 01:46:10,880
Speaker 1: o three to play in the first half. Their number

1933
01:46:11,080 --> 01:46:14,160
Speaker 1: nine Kansas playing at Oklahoma. Not a good start for

1934
01:46:14,240 --> 01:46:18,320
Speaker 1: the Jayhawks. It's twenty the Sooners up with five eight

1935
01:46:18,400 --> 01:46:23,120
Speaker 1: teena play in the first half, and Syracuse lead over

1936
01:46:23,400 --> 01:46:27,240
Speaker 1: number sixteen Virginia Tech. That's with to play in the

1937
01:46:27,600 --> 01:46:31,040
Speaker 1: first half again. The a f C and NFC Championship

1938

Speaker 1: games coming up on Sunday. We do know now, of course,

1939
01:46:34,960 --> 01:46:38,120
Speaker 1: that uh Patrick Mahomes has been cleared from the NFL's

1940
01:46:38,120 --> 01:46:41,720
Speaker 1: concussion protocol, still worried about his injured toe though. That

1941
01:46:41,840 --> 01:46:45,400
Speaker 1: game will kick off at six forty Eastern on Sunday night.

1942
01:46:45,880 --> 01:46:49,200
Speaker 1: Earlier in the day, the Green Bay Packers hosting Tampa Bay.

1943
01:46:49,520 --> 01:46:53,040
Speaker 1: The Buccaneers will be without Antonio Brown is injured. Me

1945
01:46:55,200 --> 01:46:58,680
Speaker 1: team to Wisconsin. Will send it back now to Jason McIntyre.

1946

Speaker 1: Thank you. Ralph back here live from the Farmer's Insurance

Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio Studios called one eight Farmers and you

1948
01:47:05,720 --> 01:47:08,520
Speaker 1: could save a whole lot of something on auto insurance.

1949
01:47:08,600 --> 01:47:10,600
Speaker 1: All right, let's welcome to a guy in Houston. I

1957
01:47:30,200 --> 01:47:32,320
Speaker 1: of yours thing. Thank you very much. It's great to

1958
01:47:32,360 --> 01:47:36,120
Speaker 1: bring you on, especially with with some fun going on

1959
01:47:36,200 --> 01:47:39,040
Speaker 1: in Houston. So about James Harden, No, I'm kidding. Uh,

1960
01:47:39,479 --> 01:47:46,839
Speaker 1: let's on to the next one. Um. So, Deshaun Watson

1961
01:47:47,320 --> 01:47:50,920
Speaker 1: hasn't made it clear he wants out, but his agent

1962
01:47:51,080 --> 01:47:55,519
Speaker 1: has spoke a bunch about not wanting to stay in Houston.

1963
01:47:56,080 --> 01:47:59,560
Speaker 1: I don't know where to begin with the McCown interview.

1964
01:48:00,120 --> 01:48:04,680
Speaker 1: This owner Jack easterby Deshaun Watson a mess. Where do

1965
01:48:04,720 --> 01:48:08,160
Speaker 1: you want to start, Shan, Well, Uh, it's a hell

1966
01:48:08,200 --> 01:48:10,400
Speaker 1: of a lot of branches to it. Jason, it's interested.

1967
01:48:10,520 --> 01:48:14,559
Speaker 1: We'll let me start first with I understand Watson's plight

1968
01:48:14,880 --> 01:48:19,479
Speaker 1: because Jason, in any whether it's a corporation or a

1969
01:48:19,560 --> 01:48:22,920
Speaker 1: football team for instance, or a friendship or a marriage,

1970
01:48:23,600 --> 01:48:26,240
Speaker 1: once the trust is lost, it's really hard. It's it's

1971
01:48:26,280 --> 01:48:29,120
Speaker 1: hard to get trust, it's real easy to lose it,

1972
01:48:29,200 --> 01:48:31,360
Speaker 1: and then it's extremely hard to get it back. And

1973
01:48:31,960 --> 01:48:34,960
Speaker 1: when an owner listen, whether you agree across the country,

1974
01:48:35,000 --> 01:48:37,840
Speaker 1: if an owner should give a players say in personnel

1975
01:48:38,000 --> 01:48:40,679
Speaker 1: or hiring decisions, that's for you to decide. That's fine,

1976
01:48:40,720 --> 01:48:43,560
Speaker 1: it's opinion. But when you say you're going to do it,

1977
01:48:44,160 --> 01:48:45,640
Speaker 1: live by it. It doesn't mean you have to. Just

1978
01:48:45,800 --> 01:48:47,600
Speaker 1: all you gotta do is have a simple conversation with

1979
01:48:47,680 --> 01:48:49,280
Speaker 1: the cat and say, listen, who do you what do

1980
01:48:49,320 --> 01:48:51,400
Speaker 1: you do you like? Eric the enemy, like Matt Heberflush

1981
01:48:51,479 --> 01:48:53,880
Speaker 1: who you like? Okay, so that person feels like you

1982
01:48:53,960 --> 01:48:55,880
Speaker 1: lived up to your promise. We wouldn't be in this

1983
01:48:56,000 --> 01:48:59,040
Speaker 1: situation if cal mcmair wasn't a French fry short of

1984
01:48:59,080 --> 01:49:01,040
Speaker 1: a happy meal on how to approach trust and your

1985
01:49:01,080 --> 01:49:04,599
Speaker 1: best football player. That's one. So it's I get where

1986
01:49:04,640 --> 01:49:07,560
Speaker 1: de Shaun's coming from the other side is, regardless of

1987
01:49:07,600 --> 01:49:10,840
Speaker 1: whether you're on the Texans side or not, which most aren't. Uh,

1988
01:49:10,960 --> 01:49:13,160
Speaker 1: this is a great football player, great human being, a

1989
01:49:13,240 --> 01:49:16,439
Speaker 1: great character kid. And we don't trade people. Don't trade

1990
01:49:16,520 --> 01:49:19,640
Speaker 1: twenty five year old superstars in the league. Um at

1991
01:49:19,720 --> 01:49:22,519
Speaker 1: that position, you just don't. You don't. I mean what

1992
01:49:22,720 --> 01:49:26,120
Speaker 1: Jake Cutler and Jay wasn't Deshaun Watson, Dan Pastorini for

1993
01:49:26,200 --> 01:49:28,720
Speaker 1: Ken Stabor, Dan was in his surties. Who else? So

1994
01:49:29,040 --> 01:49:31,560
Speaker 1: but Jason, and you just don't do it. So you know,

1995
01:49:31,720 --> 01:49:36,639
Speaker 1: for this um, But the the Texans still hold the cards.

1996
01:49:36,760 --> 01:49:38,640
Speaker 1: And here's what he's under contract. Now, he's got a

1997
01:49:38,680 --> 01:49:40,840
Speaker 1: no trade clause, so you can't send him to where

1998
01:49:40,840 --> 01:49:43,120
Speaker 1: you want to send him. But who what idiot we

1999
01:49:43,160 --> 01:49:46,400
Speaker 1: would think about trading Deshaun Watson. And let's say you

2000
01:49:46,439 --> 01:49:48,760
Speaker 1: were like, okay, they say, gave us a kind of

2001
01:49:48,800 --> 01:49:51,240
Speaker 1: a seventy cents on the dollar. Hall all that talk

2002
01:49:51,320 --> 01:49:53,800
Speaker 1: we're having with Jane James, hard you gonna get equal value?

2003
01:49:53,920 --> 01:49:56,200
Speaker 1: The answers, no, because you got one in the hand.

2004
01:49:56,400 --> 01:49:58,639
Speaker 1: Maybe if you get four first rounders, are you sure

2005
01:49:58,680 --> 01:50:00,960
Speaker 1: it's gonna work? They need ass, But you're not. You

2006
01:50:01,080 --> 01:50:04,519
Speaker 1: got that guy. General managers, coaches, owners spend their entire

2007
01:50:04,600 --> 01:50:08,040
Speaker 1: lives in their careers looking for this guy, looking for

2008
01:50:08,120 --> 01:50:10,080
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson. If you get one, you're lucky. If you

2009
01:50:10,120 --> 01:50:12,439
Speaker 1: get to within, you've been blessed beyond belief as a

2010
01:50:12,479 --> 01:50:15,479
Speaker 1: front office guy or a coach. So Jason, listen, I

2011
01:50:15,600 --> 01:50:18,200
Speaker 1: don't believe there's gonna trade him. Now. I'm getting to

2012
01:50:18,280 --> 01:50:21,240
Speaker 1: the point where the dysfunction is so alive and well,

2013
01:50:21,360 --> 01:50:23,559
Speaker 1: I can understand, but there's a quarterback and'll hold out

2014
01:50:23,920 --> 01:50:26,519
Speaker 1: forty million dollars in the fall if you put a

2015
01:50:26,600 --> 01:50:28,280
Speaker 1: line in the sante. No, we're not trading him. If

2016
01:50:28,280 --> 01:50:30,240
Speaker 1: he doesn't show up, that's on him. So while he's

2017
01:50:30,280 --> 01:50:33,200
Speaker 1: under contract, they do hold those cards. We'll see if

2018
01:50:33,240 --> 01:50:35,200
Speaker 1: he can hold up. I think the right coach like

2019
01:50:35,280 --> 01:50:37,880
Speaker 1: an Eric the Enemy and Nick Cassero sitting down and saying, listen,

2020
01:50:38,080 --> 01:50:40,240
Speaker 1: let's get this fixed. The question is are they going

2021
01:50:40,320 --> 01:50:42,560
Speaker 1: to hire the right coach. So there's the beginning of

2022
01:50:42,640 --> 01:50:45,120
Speaker 1: these the drama that I gotta deal with every frigging

2023
01:50:45,200 --> 01:50:47,200
Speaker 1: day from four hours from six to ten in the morning.

2024
01:50:48,240 --> 01:50:51,840
Speaker 1: That yeah, that's right. Hey, Bilka played for a team

2025
01:50:51,920 --> 01:50:53,960
Speaker 1: that was born and twelve. We're getting more action than

2026
01:50:54,040 --> 01:50:56,639
Speaker 1: a team that was twelve and four. So I'm with you, brother. Yeah.

2027
01:50:56,960 --> 01:50:59,680
Speaker 1: If you mentioned trust and that that's the big word here, right.

2028
01:50:59,760 --> 01:51:02,520
Speaker 1: So we we were just talking about the Tiger Woods documentary.

2029
01:51:02,840 --> 01:51:05,760
Speaker 1: He had built up so much trust with the you know,

2030
01:51:05,840 --> 01:51:09,120
Speaker 1: the national audience, and then he broke it badly and

2031
01:51:09,240 --> 01:51:10,880
Speaker 1: he couldn't really get it back. Now Here we are,

2032
01:51:10,960 --> 01:51:13,720
Speaker 1: what ten years later, and he has it back. I

2033
01:51:13,840 --> 01:51:16,720
Speaker 1: don't know that Deshaun Watson wants to hang out in

2034
01:51:16,840 --> 01:51:19,120
Speaker 1: Houston to find out if he can trust the owner

2035
01:51:19,479 --> 01:51:22,880
Speaker 1: and waste his career. You know, I agree, but so

2036
01:51:23,120 --> 01:51:25,200
Speaker 1: so what can what is the move? You can't just say, fine,

2037
01:51:25,200 --> 01:51:27,519
Speaker 1: we're gonna hire Eric b Enemy, will you stay? Because

2038
01:51:27,560 --> 01:51:29,800
Speaker 1: that's not gonna please anybody. That's not gonna work. They

2039
01:51:29,880 --> 01:51:32,519
Speaker 1: gotta hire a guy they want. It's pretty clear they

2040
01:51:32,600 --> 01:51:35,960
Speaker 1: don't want him, right, So it seems that well, it

2041
01:51:36,080 --> 01:51:38,160
Speaker 1: seems that way. I sorry, Jason, I mean interrupted, it

2042
01:51:38,280 --> 01:51:41,880
Speaker 1: does seem that way. But the longer this takes, if

2043
01:51:41,920 --> 01:51:44,320
Speaker 1: you would think, I mean, you and I sitting down,

2044
01:51:44,360 --> 01:51:45,840
Speaker 1: if we're having a beer, would think, okay, the longer

2045
01:51:45,880 --> 01:51:47,960
Speaker 1: it takes, it's one of the dudes who's still playing

2046
01:51:48,040 --> 01:51:50,200
Speaker 1: right in the final four. And those names that keep

2047
01:51:50,240 --> 01:51:53,920
Speaker 1: popping up are Leslie Fraser and and I mean and

2048
01:51:54,120 --> 01:51:56,320
Speaker 1: and Eric the Enemy. So you would think that, Yet

2049
01:51:56,360 --> 01:51:59,559
Speaker 1: then you mentioned that Josh McCowen, and and that Jim Caldwell,

2050
01:51:59,560 --> 01:52:03,200
Speaker 1: who's a very viable, good candidate. It isn't just about

2051
01:52:04,200 --> 01:52:06,280
Speaker 1: you can't just hire a guy that Deshaun wants. And

2052
01:52:06,320 --> 01:52:08,000
Speaker 1: I would imagine, but there's a lot of us. I

2053
01:52:08,400 --> 01:52:11,400
Speaker 1: I trust Derek being I'm not under the belief Jason,

2054
01:52:11,479 --> 01:52:13,400
Speaker 1: never have. And I posted a thing on what on

2055
01:52:13,760 --> 01:52:16,120
Speaker 1: on Twitter this morning about the traits a head coach

2056
01:52:16,240 --> 01:52:18,920
Speaker 1: must have. Being able to call offensive plays ain't one

2057
01:52:19,000 --> 01:52:21,800
Speaker 1: of them. I gotta hire good people to call him.

2058
01:52:21,800 --> 01:52:24,040
Speaker 1: I'm not every coach should know XS and knows. I

2059
01:52:24,120 --> 01:52:28,040
Speaker 1: need leadership, dynamic leadership, I need accountability, I need trust,

2060
01:52:28,120 --> 01:52:30,840
Speaker 1: I need uh people buying in all those things that

2061
01:52:30,960 --> 01:52:33,479
Speaker 1: go with with that. That that that I discussed. But

2062
01:52:34,280 --> 01:52:36,599
Speaker 1: being able to be in the play caller ain't one

2063
01:52:36,680 --> 01:52:38,840
Speaker 1: of them that I need. That WHOA, he didn't call plays,

2064
01:52:38,880 --> 01:52:41,479
Speaker 1: He's not qualified. That's that's a lazy take in a

2065
01:52:41,600 --> 01:52:43,800
Speaker 1: lazy narrative across the country that people just want to

2066
01:52:43,840 --> 01:52:46,000
Speaker 1: go to. If the enemy checks all the boxes, hire

2067
01:52:46,120 --> 01:52:48,360
Speaker 1: him before guys check all the boxes, then you got

2068
01:52:48,439 --> 01:52:50,920
Speaker 1: to go to the next level. Okay, what who's Deshaun

2069
01:52:51,000 --> 01:52:54,080
Speaker 1: comfortable with? And what kind of staff? That's another thing, Jason.

2070
01:52:54,120 --> 01:52:57,120
Speaker 1: You know this. The CEO of a company's fine and dandy,

2071
01:52:57,520 --> 01:53:00,200
Speaker 1: but if his president, his head of sales, the person

2072
01:53:00,200 --> 01:53:02,479
Speaker 1: who runs HR, if none of them trust another one,

2073
01:53:02,680 --> 01:53:04,800
Speaker 1: it's gonna crumble to the ground. Built on sand. So

2074
01:53:05,160 --> 01:53:07,200
Speaker 1: it's not just Okay, I hired a guy. We're good.

2075
01:53:07,439 --> 01:53:11,160
Speaker 1: Can Nick Cassario Casario be the the the bridge between

2076
01:53:11,200 --> 01:53:13,599
Speaker 1: the ownership and and the rest of them, because in truth, Jason,

2077
01:53:13,640 --> 01:53:17,120
Speaker 1: I played ten years, I promise you this. I didn't

2078
01:53:17,400 --> 01:53:20,120
Speaker 1: and I don't know many that did have five conversations

2079
01:53:20,560 --> 01:53:23,559
Speaker 1: with an owner outside of Dean Spanos in my last year,

2080
01:53:24,400 --> 01:53:26,160
Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't see the owner five times in

2081
01:53:26,200 --> 01:53:29,200
Speaker 1: ten years in the building ever. So you what you

2082
01:53:29,240 --> 01:53:30,920
Speaker 1: gotta do is the people that are in your circle

2083
01:53:31,200 --> 01:53:33,320
Speaker 1: take care of that will win without the owner once

2084
01:53:33,400 --> 01:53:35,920
Speaker 1: everybody's in the building. So I don't know how you're

2085
01:53:35,920 --> 01:53:37,960
Speaker 1: gonna get the Shawn's trust back. But one thing we

2086
01:53:38,080 --> 01:53:40,720
Speaker 1: have not heard yet, as you said, de Sean come

2087
01:53:40,760 --> 01:53:44,240
Speaker 1: out and publicly say I gotta get out. Representatives have

2088
01:53:44,479 --> 01:53:46,960
Speaker 1: great insiders that have knowledge, have and we have not

2089
01:53:47,120 --> 01:53:49,920
Speaker 1: heard the Texans say, well he did did, We're gonna

2090
01:53:49,920 --> 01:53:52,320
Speaker 1: we're we're considering trading him. The biggest problem for me

2091
01:53:52,439 --> 01:53:55,040
Speaker 1: is why haven't the Texans come out and said we're

2092
01:53:55,120 --> 01:53:57,200
Speaker 1: not trading him. I don't want to hear well, he's

2093
01:53:57,240 --> 01:53:59,559
Speaker 1: our quarterback. I hear that cop out all the time.

2094
01:54:00,040 --> 01:54:02,240
Speaker 1: Mountain say if you've got seven first round picks and

2095
01:54:02,360 --> 01:54:05,559
Speaker 1: three starters, will listen to your phone call squelch it now,

2096
01:54:05,680 --> 01:54:08,479
Speaker 1: because the trust from fans is at an all time

2097
01:54:08,560 --> 01:54:11,280
Speaker 1: low in this time. It's it's lower than the trust

2098
01:54:11,400 --> 01:54:14,160
Speaker 1: for the for the Houston Astros going through the craft.

2099
01:54:14,200 --> 01:54:16,400
Speaker 1: I'm telling you far lower right now. And that's a

2100
01:54:16,600 --> 01:54:18,679
Speaker 1: that's a crazy thing going on in this town. Jason.

2101
01:54:18,760 --> 01:54:20,320
Speaker 1: So a couple of things you mentioned. First of all,

2102
01:54:20,520 --> 01:54:23,639
Speaker 1: Leslie Fraser is in the mix. I'm stunned. The Buffalo

2103
01:54:23,680 --> 01:54:26,920
Speaker 1: Bills defense is not good and he's like sixty one

2104
01:54:27,040 --> 01:54:31,160
Speaker 1: he already at all I think, Jason, what happens is

2105
01:54:31,280 --> 01:54:34,240
Speaker 1: that he comes highly regarded by the guys like Tony Dungee.

2106
01:54:34,560 --> 01:54:36,520
Speaker 1: You saw what he did last week against Lamar, and

2107
01:54:36,600 --> 01:54:39,280
Speaker 1: I think, you know, we we are we are. What's

2108
01:54:39,320 --> 01:54:42,880
Speaker 1: what's the you know the the right now? Yeah, what's

2109
01:54:42,920 --> 01:54:45,400
Speaker 1: in the moment? Oh, look what happened. He's and and

2110
01:54:45,520 --> 01:54:47,440
Speaker 1: he's a good leader, and I think people think that

2111
01:54:48,000 --> 01:54:49,960
Speaker 1: he can And like I said, I know Leslie, but

2112
01:54:50,040 --> 01:54:51,800
Speaker 1: not well enough that I've never interviewed him. So these

2113
01:54:51,840 --> 01:54:53,360
Speaker 1: are all things that we see from the outside. I'm

2114
01:54:53,360 --> 01:54:56,320
Speaker 1: not sitting in an interview, But at least in this town.

2115
01:54:56,440 --> 01:54:59,400
Speaker 1: From the people that you hear, they're still talk that

2116
01:54:59,480 --> 01:55:01,760
Speaker 1: he's in the mid x SO and we'll know quick

2117
01:55:01,800 --> 01:55:04,960
Speaker 1: if Buffalo gets beat tomorrow and neither him nor Brian

2118
01:55:05,000 --> 01:55:08,680
Speaker 1: Dable are hired by tuesday, you'll know that. I keep

2119
01:55:08,840 --> 01:55:11,839
Speaker 1: thinking Dable was gonna be in the mix for Houston

2120
01:55:11,920 --> 01:55:14,920
Speaker 1: given his connections to the Patriots. But as soon as

2121
01:55:15,040 --> 01:55:17,240
Speaker 1: he didn't get the charger's job, he said, I'm staying

2122
01:55:17,240 --> 01:55:19,160
Speaker 1: in Buffalo. It sounds like he doesn't want to go

2123
01:55:19,240 --> 01:55:23,360
Speaker 1: to Houston, which leads me to this um Jack Easterby,

2124
01:55:23,920 --> 01:55:26,160
Speaker 1: who is I guess the most well known chaplain in

2125
01:55:26,280 --> 01:55:29,840
Speaker 1: sports history. Now given his last year or whatever, he

2126
01:55:30,000 --> 01:55:32,960
Speaker 1: has the owner's ear, we know him in Cesario or

2127
01:55:33,080 --> 01:55:36,280
Speaker 1: like a package deal. I don't you know? Is Josh

2128
01:55:36,400 --> 01:55:42,400
Speaker 1: McDaniels in play? Are we gonna no Josh McDaniels. You

2129
01:55:42,440 --> 01:55:44,160
Speaker 1: know he didn't get the EIL much Josh are we

2130
01:55:44,280 --> 01:55:47,200
Speaker 1: talking about now? They're interviewed every Josh. I'm changing my

2131
01:55:47,320 --> 01:55:49,160
Speaker 1: name to Josh so I can get an interview. Um,

2132
01:55:49,720 --> 01:55:53,440
Speaker 1: I guess the one concern with Josh mcdann now, people

2133
01:55:53,520 --> 01:55:56,560
Speaker 1: here you know it's it's unfair to Nick kiss cRIO

2134
01:55:56,680 --> 01:55:58,560
Speaker 1: for them to get lumped into the easter By thing,

2135
01:55:58,680 --> 01:56:01,280
Speaker 1: But we do because it's New England. Because the truth is,

2136
01:56:01,320 --> 01:56:02,800
Speaker 1: when people say, well, I don't want any more of

2137
01:56:02,800 --> 01:56:05,200
Speaker 1: that New England stuff here after Bill O'Brien, the truth is,

2138
01:56:05,240 --> 01:56:08,200
Speaker 1: you want all the good New England stuff, championships and

2139
01:56:08,600 --> 01:56:11,800
Speaker 1: understanding drafts and great leadership and how to keep it,

2140
01:56:11,880 --> 01:56:14,000
Speaker 1: you know, keep everything in the house, all those things

2141
01:56:14,080 --> 01:56:16,560
Speaker 1: that Belichick's done. You want Nick Cassario to bring And

2142
01:56:16,600 --> 01:56:19,400
Speaker 1: hopefully did we give him that chance? He deserves that,

2143
01:56:19,760 --> 01:56:21,760
Speaker 1: And but he's got a babysit the front office and

2144
01:56:21,840 --> 01:56:24,240
Speaker 1: then the draft and it's a crazy year, so his job,

2145
01:56:24,280 --> 01:56:27,800
Speaker 1: he's gonna earn his money. But yuh, here's what only

2146
01:56:27,840 --> 01:56:30,440
Speaker 1: concerns me about this. I don't trust mcdarren Easter me

2147
01:56:30,560 --> 01:56:32,360
Speaker 1: to make the right choice because they've made a lot

2148
01:56:32,400 --> 01:56:35,360
Speaker 1: of poor choices. I try to give people the glass

2149
01:56:35,400 --> 01:56:37,280
Speaker 1: half full benefit of the doubt. But the fact that

2150
01:56:37,400 --> 01:56:40,360
Speaker 1: Josh McDaniel's name is not mentioned at all here makes

2151
01:56:40,440 --> 01:56:43,000
Speaker 1: me worried that it's gonna be But I think, well,

2152
01:56:43,040 --> 01:56:44,840
Speaker 1: then why haven't you hired him? Why have we? Now

2153
01:56:44,880 --> 01:56:48,440
Speaker 1: they interviewed Josh McCowen, who's a great person, great X

2154
01:56:48,520 --> 01:56:50,920
Speaker 1: and those held in such high regard by peers and

2155
01:56:51,080 --> 01:56:53,880
Speaker 1: players in this league. But let's face facts. The city

2156
01:56:53,920 --> 01:56:57,000
Speaker 1: will go crazy simply because they'll say you're passing over

2157
01:56:57,480 --> 01:57:00,920
Speaker 1: qualified guys, that a guy who may not qualified yet

2158
01:57:01,120 --> 01:57:04,200
Speaker 1: or is and we just don't know. So I actually

2159
01:57:04,320 --> 01:57:07,280
Speaker 1: think for me, knowing what I know, and I've known Eboh,

2160
01:57:07,280 --> 01:57:08,720
Speaker 1: I haven't talked to him in years, but I know

2161
01:57:09,440 --> 01:57:11,320
Speaker 1: I know where he comes from. He's been an assistant,

2162
01:57:11,320 --> 01:57:13,960
Speaker 1: He's had failure, he's had success, he's been around. Andy's

2163
01:57:14,000 --> 01:57:16,240
Speaker 1: a great mentor. The longer it goes, the more I

2164
01:57:16,320 --> 01:57:18,800
Speaker 1: think it's him, But I don't trust it, and I

2165
01:57:18,880 --> 01:57:21,200
Speaker 1: think that's what DeShawn. They sit back and wait, Well,

2166
01:57:21,240 --> 01:57:22,840
Speaker 1: I I don't trust that he's gonna make the right

2167
01:57:22,880 --> 01:57:25,240
Speaker 1: decision either, And I get it, but this will be

2168
01:57:25,320 --> 01:57:29,200
Speaker 1: the most important higher not only in the twenty years

2169
01:57:29,200 --> 01:57:31,520
Speaker 1: of the franchise, and obviously because you don't get guys

2170
01:57:31,520 --> 01:57:33,360
Speaker 1: they've been begging for a quarterback like this. Screw this

2171
01:57:33,480 --> 01:57:36,120
Speaker 1: one up and they'll have to move to a minor

2172
01:57:36,200 --> 01:57:38,640
Speaker 1: league baseball field because nobody's gonna show up right, Sean,

2173
01:57:38,680 --> 01:57:41,640
Speaker 1: we gotta go. But last one word answer? Where is

2174
01:57:41,720 --> 01:57:46,040
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson quarterbacking Week one next year? Starting quarterback for

2175
01:57:46,120 --> 01:57:48,360
Speaker 1: the Text and under Center and in the gun for

2176
01:57:48,440 --> 01:57:50,680
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans. In spite of this, I hear your

2177
01:57:50,720 --> 01:57:54,000
Speaker 1: brother John Salisbury Sports Talk seven ninety listened to his

2178
01:57:54,080 --> 01:57:57,560
Speaker 1: show seven or nine a m. Eastern. Have a good weekend, Sean,

2179
01:57:57,840 --> 01:58:00,360
Speaker 1: Thanks Buccaneers and Chiefs. Moving on, I'll talk your brother.

2180
01:58:01,000 --> 01:58:03,400
Speaker 1: I love it. Just squeeze getting picks all right. After

2181
01:58:03,480 --> 01:58:06,280
Speaker 1: this we will wrap up the show. But live from

2182
01:58:06,360 --> 01:58:09,960
Speaker 1: the Farmers Insurance Fox Sports Radio Studios called one eight

2183

Speaker 1: something of auto insurance. Call one eight Farmers and you

2185
01:58:17,520 --> 01:58:19,840
Speaker 1: could save on your auto insurance. It's better than using

2186
01:58:19,880 --> 01:58:21,880
Speaker 1: your phone to see if your post got any likes. Again,

2187
01:58:22,120 --> 01:58:24,360

Speaker 1: There are fil parts on available every state. Back here

2190
01:58:32,320 --> 01:58:36,360
Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio. Live from the Farmers Insurance Fox

2191
01:58:36,440 --> 01:58:41,480
Speaker 1: Sports Radio Studios called Farmers today for a quote. Coming

2192
01:58:41,560 --> 01:58:48,400
Speaker 1: up next up on Game Hushvenzada LaVar Arrington Plexico Burris.

2193
01:58:49,320 --> 01:58:52,880
Speaker 1: I'm sure they'll agree with me on everything. Chiefs win,

2194
01:58:53,600 --> 01:58:57,600
Speaker 1: Packers win, Tiger Wood's dad was a terrible human being,

2195
01:58:57,880 --> 01:58:59,720
Speaker 1: you know, things like that. By the way, I will

2196
01:58:59,760 --> 01:59:03,760
Speaker 1: say I did really like even though Gavin and Ralph

2197
01:59:03,800 --> 01:59:07,240
Speaker 1: and I disagreed. I like that discussion on Tiger Woods.

2198
01:59:07,800 --> 01:59:10,280
Speaker 1: I like hearing different perspectives. Were in an era right

2199
01:59:10,360 --> 01:59:15,800
Speaker 1: now where people only want to hear their little uh

2200
01:59:16,360 --> 01:59:19,040
Speaker 1: echo chamber. Yeah, they want an echo chamber of I

2201
01:59:19,200 --> 01:59:21,480
Speaker 1: think this. I only want to hear this. I don't

2202
01:59:21,520 --> 01:59:24,400
Speaker 1: want to hear any outside inside. I've talked to several

2203
01:59:24,440 --> 01:59:26,280
Speaker 1: people about the doc. A lot of them are in

2204
01:59:26,360 --> 01:59:29,520
Speaker 1: agreement with me, and hearing different opinions makes me think

2205
01:59:29,520 --> 01:59:32,880
Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah, I think the most fascinating thing

2206
01:59:32,920 --> 01:59:36,760
Speaker 1: about Tiger is you're a Lakers guy, Jason. Think about

2207
01:59:36,880 --> 01:59:39,720
Speaker 1: Kobe and Shack winning their first title. How long ago?

2208
01:59:39,800 --> 01:59:43,520
Speaker 1: That was? That ancient history, right, That's the same time

2209
01:59:43,600 --> 01:59:46,600
Speaker 1: Tiger was winning the US Open and he's still playing.

2210
01:59:47,680 --> 01:59:51,080
Speaker 1: So to think about his career in that way and

2211
01:59:51,160 --> 01:59:54,880
Speaker 1: he's still competitive, like it's phenomenal. Yeah, No, certainly, Um

2212
01:59:55,320 --> 01:59:57,960
Speaker 1: and listen, all this stuff is subjective, like you can

2213
01:59:58,720 --> 02:00:02,680
Speaker 1: fifty people can watch, um, you know, the Mandalorian and

2214
02:00:02,840 --> 02:00:05,760
Speaker 1: view it differently. Um. You know, I don't know that

2215
02:00:05,840 --> 02:00:08,680
Speaker 1: the same applies to the Karate Kids series that I'm watching,

2216
02:00:09,000 --> 02:00:14,280
Speaker 1: Cobra Kai. Um. But you know all this stuff, people

2217
02:00:14,400 --> 02:00:16,680
Speaker 1: have different views and insights and I appreciate it. I

2218
02:00:16,840 --> 02:00:20,800
Speaker 1: like looking at things differently, um and hearing different UM

2219
02:00:21,480 --> 02:00:24,400
Speaker 1: thoughts on people like, for instance, Hush ben Zada is

2220
02:00:24,600 --> 02:00:28,000
Speaker 1: UM on my side in that. I know Justin Jefferson,

2221
02:00:28,120 --> 02:00:31,160
Speaker 1: the rookie from the Vikings, was amazing, but Chase Claypool

2222
02:00:31,160 --> 02:00:33,040
Speaker 1: to me is the best rookie ride receiver we saw

2223
02:00:33,120 --> 02:00:34,400
Speaker 1: this year. And a lot of people can say, well,

2224
02:00:34,400 --> 02:00:37,640
Speaker 1: look at the numbers, yes, Justin Jefferson was phenomenally had

2225
02:00:37,680 --> 02:00:41,120
Speaker 1: a better season. But when I'm watching the wrought talent,

2226
02:00:41,480 --> 02:00:44,120
Speaker 1: give me Chase Claypool the Steelers. And yeah, part of

2227
02:00:44,160 --> 02:00:47,320
Speaker 1: that is, you know what, I wanted the Jets to

2228
02:00:47,360 --> 02:00:49,960
Speaker 1: get him, and I wrote that and I was all

2229
02:00:50,080 --> 02:00:52,160
Speaker 1: excited about it. And the Jets had a chance to

2230
02:00:52,280 --> 02:00:54,920
Speaker 1: draft him in they they passed. And this kid, Denzel

2231
02:00:55,000 --> 02:00:58,440
Speaker 1: mims now um, who hopefully will be healthy next year,

2232
02:00:58,440 --> 02:01:00,920
Speaker 1: he couldn't stay healthy to save his life. Live last year. Um,

2233
02:01:01,240 --> 02:01:03,920
Speaker 1: hopefully he works out for the Jets. We I can't

2234
02:01:03,960 --> 02:01:06,040
Speaker 1: wait to do a lot of NFL draft stuff here

2235
02:01:06,080 --> 02:01:08,600
Speaker 1: in the next couple of weeks. Now there's not gonna

2236
02:01:08,680 --> 02:01:12,520
Speaker 1: be a combine, which stinks, although the Senior Bowls happening

2237
02:01:12,560 --> 02:01:16,400
Speaker 1: this week. Go figure. Um you know we got the

2238
02:01:16,480 --> 02:01:20,760
Speaker 1: Justin Fields for Zach Wilson debate. Um, My guy, Daniel

2239
02:01:20,840 --> 02:01:23,440
Speaker 1: Jeremiah is on my side with Zack Wilson on this

2240
02:01:23,720 --> 02:01:26,520
Speaker 1: over Justin Fields. I'm sure who's Venjatta will have different

2241
02:01:26,560 --> 02:01:29,840
Speaker 1: thoughts as he is intimately aware of both quarterbacks. I'm

2242
02:01:29,840 --> 02:01:32,840
Speaker 1: not gonna say how maybe he can um at any rate.

2243
02:01:32,920 --> 02:01:38,240
Speaker 1: Great show today, Thank you, Gavin, Ralph, Chris, Iowa, Sam.

2244
02:01:38,360 --> 02:01:40,800
Speaker 1: The podcast will be up. I don't know twenty thirty minutes.

2245
02:01:41,120 --> 02:01:44,480
Speaker 1: There are no football games today. It's a little depressing.

2246
02:01:44,480 --> 02:01:46,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna hang with the fam. I'm gonna dominate some

2247
02:01:46,440 --> 02:01:49,520
Speaker 1: board games. Uh, probably play some Madden. I'm out.
