23
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:18,679
Speaker 2: Sports Radio NBA Insider about this incredible trade. Then we

24
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 2: got into talking about that was crazy that we were like,

25
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 2: you know, we had a you know, basically a previous

26
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 2: show for the Super Bowl, Like what just happened. Anthony

27
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 2: Davis did play by the way today, played great for

28
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,320
Speaker 2: Dallas and then he got hurt. So we'll get an

29
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 2: update on his situation. And of course, Luca is expected

30
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,479
Speaker 2: to make his Lakers debut on Monday, as they play

31
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 2: one of the worst teams in the If you're going

32
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 2: to have a debut, the Utah Jazz is a really

33
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 2: good team to debut against.

34
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 3: So if you are.

35
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 4: Going to change your entire TV schedule around, maybe confirm

36
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 4: that before you do that. ESPN because it screwed over

37
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 4: college basketball, like they were gonna, you know, move the

38
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 4: Indiana Pacers Lakers game, and they did. They moved everyone around,

39
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 4: and then Luca's not playing, right and now Lebron is

40
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 4: not playing. So you have this game that's gonna be

41
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 4: on ESPN, No Lebron, no Luca, Lakers and Pacers amazing right.

42
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 2: Now, Lakers winning a game by fifteen points. Yeah, even

43
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 2: with everyone pretty much sitting out this game. The Lakers

44
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 2: are significantly better than any By the way, yesterday I

45
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 2: did a TV interview with Laker legend Derek Fisher. Yeah.

46
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,079
Speaker 2: Of course, after his playing career was over, he coached

47
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 2: briefly with the Knicks and he went to the La

48
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,519
Speaker 2: Sparks of the WNBA. He's now coaching high school basketball

49
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 2: in the LA area. His son was on the team,

50
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 2: and his step sons, the sons of Matt Barnes, the twins,

51
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 2: they're on his team right now. But it was interesting

52
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 2: talking to him about the Lakers situation and you know,

53
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 2: the idea of being a first year coach like JJ Reddick.

54
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 2: I mean, it was a similar situation in the terms

55
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,639
Speaker 2: of when d Fish got the nixt job, he had

56
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 2: zero coaching experience. Of course, that didn't go well for

57
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 2: him there, but he says he's very rest by what

58
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 2: JJ Reddick has done. But he also admitted having to

59
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 2: change midstream, especially when your team's playing well. Yeah, and

60
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,920
Speaker 2: you're losing someone as dynamic as Anthony Davis, certainly on

61
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 2: the defensive end, so it's a process. Plus, remember Luke

62
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 2: hasn't played at all since Christmas Day, so he said,

63
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 2: you know, be patient. There's plenty of time. But yeah,

64
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 2: when you're in the middle of a season and you're

65
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,239
Speaker 2: trying to put all the pieces together and all of

66
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,799
Speaker 2: a sudden, somebody flips a switch and now you've got

67
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 2: to restart in the middle of the season. Even with

68
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 2: a player as great as Luca, it can be a challenge.

69
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 4: I was at the Lakers Clippers game at Into It Dome.

70
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 3: I went with Bree.

71
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 4: We went and we listened to JJ Reddick before and

72
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 4: they asked him about the trade and he's like, it's

73
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 4: very difficult to say if a trade is going to

74
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 4: work right then and there. Well, well know in a

75
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 4: year whether this trade worked out, but it's really difficult

76
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 4: to say it right now.

77
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 3: Whether it was a good trade.

78
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 4: Obviously they're looking forward to it, but he even said,

79
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 4: you know, we're in mourning and we're happy, but we're

80
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 4: in morning because of losing eighty.

81
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 3: But he said that right.

82
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 4: Before them, He's like, it's impossible to know right now

83
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 4: how good the trade really is.

84
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 2: Well, I agree with you, and you know, who knows.

85
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 2: Maybe they'll maybe it'll click immediately and they'll figure this

86
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 2: whole thing out. My guess is, hey, again. He hasn't

87
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 2: played since Christmas Day. Okay, so he's been off for

88
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,600
Speaker 2: a while. So the idea that he's going to come back,

89
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 2: I mean, watch, he'll put up fifty points probably some

90
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 2: crazy like that. He's certainly capable of doing that. Does

91
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 2: have a chip on his shoulder right now, he does.

92
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 2: He does. By the way, your Clippers just signed Ben Simmons.

93
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 2: You know what, I and I don't hate it.

94
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:37,839
Speaker 3: Am I crazy?

95
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 4: I feel like he can actually maybe help us out

96
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 4: in the holes that we have Ben Simmons.

97
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 2: Here's the thing. Obviously, he's a very offensively challenged place rightly,

98
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 2: but we don't need him to score. He doesn't take

99
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 2: any three point shot.

100
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:50,919
Speaker 3: That's fine.

101
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 2: But he's really good on the defensive end. Yeah, and

102
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 2: he's a big guard. He's a matchup ar He's a

103
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 2: really big guard. So you know that's a pretty good

104
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 2: could play for him.

105
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: All right.

106
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,919
Speaker 2: Well, speaking of what's going on around the NBA, joining

107
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,799
Speaker 2: us right now, as he so graciously does well whenever

108
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 2: Montsy asked him, I mean that's pretty much what happens.

109
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,840
Speaker 2: Here is our NBA insider here at Fox Sports Radio,

110
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,359
Speaker 2: Mark Medina. Mark. Obviously we've been talking about what is

111
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 2: going to happen with the big debut of who I

112
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 2: did bet you U Luka Doncic And and here's the thing.

113
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 2: Yesterday I was talking to an old buddy of ours,

114
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 2: Derek Fisher, who's coaching now at Crespy High School of

115
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 2: all places, about this situation, and he said, look, I

116
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 2: mean you got to be fair to JJ Reddick in

117
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 2: the sense that you are literally flipping the switch in

118
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 2: the middle of the season. You lose one of the

119
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 2: best two way big men in the league. You obviously

120
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 2: gain a superstar in Luka Doncic, but making it all

121
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 2: work and immediately could be a challenge. So what's your

122
00:05:55,200 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 2: sense of maybe the biggest challenges facing the Lakers Lebron

123
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 2: James and company and getting the most as quickly as

124
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 2: possible from Luka Dancic.

125
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,240
Speaker 5: Yes, Steve, a lot of good things you and Derek

126
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 5: Fisher unpacked. I think that the main things to look

127
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 5: for to look for that are going to be challenging

128
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 5: are two things. One, how to become a good defensive

129
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 5: team without Anthony Davis. Even with Davis there, but in

130
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 5: defensive Player of the Year type highlights, they weren't really

131
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 5: a good defensive team. They don't have great perimeters. That's

132
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 5: number one. Number two, what are the right roster combinations

133
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 5: around Luka Doncic. I think the obvious question that I've

134
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 5: certainly asked JJ Reddick and Lebron James and others have

135
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 5: as well, is what's the dynamic going to be like

136
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 5: with Lebron and Luca? And yes, things take time, but

137
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 5: the expectation is that's going to be established very quickly

138
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,600
Speaker 5: because a they're both really talented stars, and B I

139
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 5: don't think there's going to be as much of a

140
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 5: pushbull on how to divide ball handling duties as Lebron

141
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 5: had with Russell Westbrook Indiangral Russell for a simple reason,

142
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 5: Luca Doctors just substantially a better player than either of.

143
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 6: Those two players.

144
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 5: But even when you take that new account that Lebron

145
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 5: and Luke are expected to hit the ground running, all

146
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 5: the other parts out line the defense and the rest

147
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 5: of the supporting cast that could be a work in

148
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 5: progress the rest of the season.

149
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 4: Mark, thanks for joining us. I know you're a busy

150
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 4: man right now, so we appreciate it. Another big trade

151
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 4: that happened was Jimmy Butler to the Warriors.

152
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 3: How did that come about?

153
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 4: Because originally didn't he say he didn't want to sign

154
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 4: an extension. There the Warriors really want Kevin Durant and

155
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 4: then Durant said he didn't want a reunion.

156
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 3: What more can you tell us as to how that

157
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 3: went down?

158
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 5: Well, Montse I think it was desperation meets desperation. Jimmy

159
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 5: Butler was running, but it was desperation where you know,

160
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 5: both sides can benefit from this. Jimmy Butler's got an extension,

161
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,679
Speaker 5: he got paid here, He's on a team that still

162
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 5: is pretty good and make a deep playoff push the Warriors.

163
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 5: They ran out of options, but at the same time

164
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 5: they were able to thread that needle by that sweet spot. Yes,

165
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 5: they will have to give up a lot to get

166
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 5: Jimmy Butler. That included Andrew Wiggins, a first round pick,

167
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 5: and some role players, but they still cut their young core.

168
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 5: They still have two draft picks. So you know, when

169
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 5: I was at the Warriors Lakers game when Jimmy Butler

170
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 5: did his introductory press conference, their expectation is they can

171
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 5: win an NBA championship. I think that's strong because they're

172
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 5: eleventh in the West right now. But I think it's

173
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,960
Speaker 5: their argument that you have Steph Curry on your team,

174
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 5: you have Raymond Green on your team, you have Jimmy

175
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 5: Butler on your team. Those are three dynamic players and

176
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 5: they all compliment each other well because Steph's still shooting well.

177
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 5: Jimmy Butler gives them additional scoring help in things that

178
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 5: Steph doesn't do. Jimmy Butler's a mid range guys drives

179
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 5: to the basket. Steph Curry takes care of the threes.

180
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:58,440
Speaker 5: Raymond and Jimmy Butler are very fiery competitors that a

181
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 5: lot of guys I talked to a lot of interesting

182
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 5: blow up moments in practice. But it's not going to

183
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:08,440
Speaker 5: be like Draymond and Jordan Poole and other teammates because

184
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:12,199
Speaker 5: Draymond likes guys that have that same kind of competitive

185
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 5: edge and that can go toe to toe. So I

186
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 5: think because of that, they feel like they can make

187
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 5: a push and they could be one of those teams

188
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 5: that no one wants to see in the first round.

189
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,559
Speaker 5: But bottom line, Monts it's still the Oklahoma City Thunder

190
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 5: in the rest of the field because of how great

191
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 5: Shag Gilgris Alexander is and how deep that roster is

192
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 5: completely all right.

193
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 2: Let's get back to the Mavericks situation. So there's a

194
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 2: lot of speculation floating out that the Addamlson family wants

195
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 2: the Mavericks out of Dallas and they want to move

196
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 2: into Vegas. The guy that has been really quiet since

197
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,080
Speaker 2: all of this came down as Adam Silver, Like, where

198
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 2: is the guy? I mean, I mean, where is the guy?

199
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,319
Speaker 2: I look, I knew David Stern, And first of all,

200
00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,959
Speaker 2: Stern would never have allowed the way this one down.

201
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 2: It was just there was just a cloud of mystery

202
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 2: that he would not have been comfortable with. But Adam

203
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 2: Silver is completely out of the mix. But do you

204
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 2: buy into the idea that the ownership of the Mavericks

205
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:18,199
Speaker 2: is literally trying to dismantle a franchise if I'm not correct?

206
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 2: Did they not offer refunds to the fans after the trade?

207
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 2: I mean it's like, really, are they purposely trying to

208
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 2: dump on Dallas to make it easier to make a

209
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 2: move to Las Vegas, where obviously their family resides. Yeah.

210
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 5: Well, actions always speak louder than words, so it's hard

211
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 5: to know what's going to happen. But I will just

212
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 5: give you my take. I don't see any scenario where

213
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 5: they'll relocate, because if they were to try to do that,

214
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 5: the NBA would not allow it. They're in the expansion business,

215
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 5: not the relocation business now, or they're driving forces on

216
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 5: the new ownership influencing this trade very well, because Mark

217
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 5: Cuban had been on record that he would never allow

218
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 5: Luka Doncic to get traded, so much that if he

219
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 5: had to choose between divorcing his wife or trading Luka Doncic,

220
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 5: he would become single number two. Niko Harrison's that is

221
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 5: a huge element as well. He was a GM that

222
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 5: is fairly new, and he wasn't the guy who drackted Luca,

223
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 5: and so sometimes the gms want to have their fingerprints

224
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 5: on who the guy is.

225
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 1: Now.

226
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 5: The excuses that we're pedaling out that they want to

227
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 5: be a defensive oriented team or they were concerned about

228
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 5: Luka Doncic's conditioning, it just doesn't lie.

229
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 6: Well with me.

230
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 5: Here's why. Yes, I do believe in the old adage

231
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 5: that defense wins championships, but in the modern NBA you

232
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,960
Speaker 5: can produce enough offense to offset that, and Luka Doocich

233
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:52,320
Speaker 5: is a generational star number two, even if he is

234
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 5: not going to be considered the guy who is mister

235
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 5: ironman who keeps himself in tiptop shape. He's still an

236
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,320
Speaker 5: All NBA player. He carried him to the finals last year,

237
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,679
Speaker 5: and he's twenty five years old. A lot of times

238
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 5: NBA stars don't take care of their body until they

239
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:10,839
Speaker 5: actually have to. You know, Kobe Bryant was a maniacal competitor,

240
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,319
Speaker 5: but he admitted two years after he scored eighty one

241
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 5: points in two thousand and six that his pregame diet

242
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 5: that day was Temperoni pizza and grape soda. So what

243
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 5: I'm getting at is Luca Doctric is just starting his

244
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:28,080
Speaker 5: career and I think that he can therefore learn better habits. Now,

245
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 5: how this applies to the Lakers. He's with Lebron James,

246
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 5: he takes care of his body. Well, there's obviously the

247
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 5: pressure with being with the Lakers because it's what they represent,

248
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 5: but they're also open for having their training staff work

249
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 5: with his trainer so that there can be more fine

250
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 5: tuning with his body and his training habits.

251
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 4: You know, it's just hard to believe that somebody would

252
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,680
Speaker 4: be willing to let go of Luca because he doesn't

253
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 4: look like Lebron James when you went to the finals

254
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 4: last year. It makes no sense to me, Mark, like,

255
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 4: I don't believe it. There's got more to the story

256
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,680
Speaker 4: that we don't know. But up to the MAVs today,

257
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 4: Anthony Davis his debut and he has a.

258
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 3: Non contact injury in the third quarter. Do you know

259
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 3: anything more about that?

260
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 5: Yes, Jason Kidd, for what it's worth, after the game

261
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 5: said that he thinks he'll be okay. But it's a

262
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 5: huge copyat because they haven't done any medicals yet. This

263
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 5: is a huge concern because we saw Anthony Davis miss

264
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 5: five games last week with the abdominal injury. I'm going

265
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 5: to make it clear here, even though he has an

266
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 5: injury history, he has been a lot more durable than

267
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 5: twenty twenty three when they went to the West Finals

268
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,959
Speaker 5: with the Lakers. But his injury history is what it is,

269
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 5: and so when you're trying to make an instant impact

270
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 5: on a Dallas Mavericks team whose fan base is very

271
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,559
Speaker 5: upset that they lost their star player, this is terrible news,

272
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 5: especially when you look at how dominant he was playing

273
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 5: at the beginning of this game. He was showing what

274
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,080
Speaker 5: makes Anthony Davis so great with hitting a lot of

275
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 5: shots both from the posts and the outside, being a

276
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 5: great facilitator, being a great defender. And I think the

277
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 5: one thing that we have to keep in mind is

278
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 5: that he could have a bigger impact on Dallas than

279
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 5: he had with the Lakers this season, only because their

280
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 5: roster depth. Dallas specifically has better three point shooters, has

281
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 5: more score So even though I thought ad was playing

282
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 5: at a reasonably high level this season, he could still

283
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 5: be in that upgrade for Dallas this season. But the

284
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 5: tie this all together on why I still don't think

285
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 5: it was good for Dallas to trade to make this

286
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 5: trade is that they're upside. It's really only this season,

287
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 5: maybe next season. And given the fact that I think

288
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 5: Oklahoma City has so much separation between themselves and everyone

289
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 5: else in the West, I just don't think that this

290
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 5: move will automatically thrust them into shift page of contention.

291
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 2: Well, bottom line here, the NBA did the unthinkable. They

292
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 2: actually gave reason for people to talk about the NBA

293
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 2: during Super Bowl War. I mean, now give it to him.

294
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 2: It was a very quiet, uneventful week in New Orleans.

295
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 2: Two teams that have been there, they were going to

296
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 2: make any big noise, obviously getting ready for the big game.

297
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 2: And so the NBA was actually able to seize the

298
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 2: moment and that doesn't happen and maybe that's why Adam

299
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 2: Silver just took a step back and said, yeah, let

300
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 2: this play out. You know, the Nico Harrison press conference

301
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 2: and all the crazin that's gone on, this has been

302
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 2: a big plus this week for the NBA. It's always

303
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 2: a plus to have this guy on. Mark Mendina. Mark,

304
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 2: we appreciate your time. Thank you so much, and we

305
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 2: will be calling on you a lot, if that's okay

306
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 2: with you again, Monci when she calls, I know you

307
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 2: take the call.

308
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 5: Hey, Dave Monse it's a pleasure. And of course anytime

309
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 5: you all reach out to me, I will happily go

310
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 5: on your show because it's the best show on Fox

311
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 5: Sports Radio on Saturday.

Speaker 2: I gave you a story one week ago, guaranteed it

331
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 2: and it was ignored until it's like, oh damn, he

00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 2: was right. We'll explain if you don't quite understand. This

339
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:23,800

340
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 2: worked out well in New Orleans this week. Again we're

341
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 2: gonna have Dan Bayer, who's been there for Fox Sports Radio,

342
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 2: veteran of many Super Bowl weeks. But the weather cooperated

343
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 2: and security was tight, to say the least, after the

344
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 2: incident on New Year's Eve New Year's Day in New Orleans.

345
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 2: I was in New Orleans covering the Super Bowl in

346
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,119
Speaker 2: two thousand and two, in the aftermath of nine to

347
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 2: eleven oof, and it was wow. You talk about security,

348
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 2: it was crazyville and so you know, but you got

349
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 2: to take care of it. I mean, it's it's it's

350
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 2: the biggest sporting event I obviously in this country every

351
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 2: single year. And after the incident they had earlier just

352
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,440
Speaker 2: a month ago in New Orleans, it's good to hear

353
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 2: that they had security. So everything seems to be on

354
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 2: the up and up. We're gonna have much more obviously

355
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 2: on the game. But I have to mention.

356
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 3: This, Yeah, you have to.

357
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 2: So when I have when I go on the air

358
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 2: and I say I have inside information that you might

359
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 2: be interested in, I'm actually serious, Like I have inside information,

360
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,680
Speaker 2: and so when it comes to the Pro Football Hall

361
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:46,919
Speaker 2: of Fame, I have a connection that will tell me

362
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 2: in advance usually who actually is going in. Okay, now,

363
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:56,199
Speaker 2: I will admit this. The last couple of years on

364
00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,479
Speaker 2: the air, I have made predictions on who the class

365
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 2: was going to be, and if you're checking the box,

366
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 2: I was right on every single person in the last

367
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,920
Speaker 2: three years. And that was because I actually already knew

368
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 2: in advance.

369
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:09,680
Speaker 3: Oh sneaky.

370
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,879
Speaker 2: But this year was different, so they changed the process.

371
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:17,119
Speaker 2: You still had the same fifteen finalists, but instead of

372
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 2: what they do is and this is a virtual. It

373
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 2: used to be all in a meeting room the day

374
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 2: before the Super Bowl. Those days are over. So this

375
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,119
Speaker 2: was actually done like three weeks ago, and they're on

376
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,920
Speaker 2: a virtual the forty eight member committee and they're talking

377
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 2: you know this, and then they do a vote. So

378
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 2: it used to be you vote from fifteen to ten,

379
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 2: and then you vote again from ten to five, and

380
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 2: then all five of those people would actually make it. Okay,

381
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 2: this year they had a vote from fifteen to ten

382
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:51,680
Speaker 2: and then ten to seven, with the idea that anywhere

383
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 2: between three and five of those seven would make it,

384
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 2: and I did not know who was going to make it,

385
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 2: but I also knew who had actually been cut, and

386
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:05,439
Speaker 2: so I came on the air and said, one person

387
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 2: that has been eliminated is Eli Manning one hundred percent.

388
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,520
Speaker 2: In fact, he was part of the very first cut.

389
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 2: He did not even make it to the ten. Really,

390
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 2: so the first five that were cut, he was among

391
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:22,160
Speaker 2: the very first five. He was not a serious candidate.

392
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 2: So as the week went on and I'm reading, you know,

393
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 2: like a buddy like Adam Rank, a dear friend of mine,

394
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 2: and he's saying he's going to make it, I'm like, Adam, stop,

395
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 2: anybody that was on this, listen to me, Listen to me.

396
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,119
Speaker 2: I already knew he was a limited I said it

397
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 2: on it, I said it right here. What do you

398
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 2: think I just I'm going to make up a story

399
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 2: like that. I'm not making up a story. I literally

400
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 2: told you that. I have it as a fact that

401
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 2: Eli Manning will not be in the Hall of Fame.

402
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:03,960
Speaker 2: He missed the cut. So I mean, so for the future,

403
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 2: trust me on this subject matter. I know will hard

404
00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 2: me wrong all the time, something like.

405
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 8: This, I'm not wrong.

406
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:13,920
Speaker 3: Sometimes I'm your picks. You're really wrong.

407
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,959
Speaker 2: Those are my picks. Okay, that's not my insights. But

408
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 2: when I'm telling you about the Hall of Fame, I

409
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,800
Speaker 2: have the results ahead of time. Now you may not

410
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,120
Speaker 2: want to know the results. But that's why I didn't

411
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,120
Speaker 2: offer up what other guys were cut. I couldn't give

412
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 2: you all. I knew all eight guys that have been eliminated.

413
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,480
Speaker 2: I didn't mention any I just wanted to make sure

414
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:38,119
Speaker 2: that people understood Eli Manning will not be part of

415
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame.

416
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 3: That was That was the juicy one.

417
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 2: That was a juicy one. That's the only one. And

418
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 2: all week lone kept saying about Eli Manning, I'm like it, and.

419
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 4: Then Peyton Manning, i think right before the show or

420
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 4: like during the show, was asked about it and Peyton

421
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 4: man was like, Eli already knows if he got internet.

422
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 3: And then people took that as, oh, he's going.

423
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 4: To be in, because why would Peyton Manning even say

424
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 4: anything about it, Like if it was a null, why

425
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 4: would he even say anything?

426
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 2: Well, what was interesting One of the guys that hadd

427
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 2: to make the cut to seven was Tory Holt, and

428
00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,879
Speaker 2: Isaac Bruce came out saying the weight is over, so

429
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 2: that was one of the reasons I thought, well, because

430
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 2: I didn't know who got in. I had told you

431
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:21,520
Speaker 2: I was pretty sure Antonio Gates was going to get in.

432
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 2: I also said Jared Allen. I was so thrilled for

433
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:28,200
Speaker 2: Eric Allen, one of the super super people that I've

434
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 2: ever met in connection with the NFL. He had to

435
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 2: wait till his nineteenth year of eligibility. Great cornerback. I'm

436
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 2: so happy for him that he got in. But I

437
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 2: was surprised about the Tory Holt situation because I thought

438
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,480
Speaker 2: Holt will probably get because there's like this, now understand this,

439
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,479
Speaker 2: it's not good news for Eli coming up next year,

440
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 2: Drew Brees. There's an automatic, So two guys will be

441
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 2: first ballot next year, Larry Fitzgerald and Drew Brees automatic,

442
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 2: no questions asked. Philip Rivers is eligible next year, and

443
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 2: then the year after that, Ben Roethlisberger is eligible. And

444
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,400
Speaker 2: so all this noise about Eli Manning, and by the way,

445
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 2: he's a great guy, Eli Manning, love love love him,

446
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,120
Speaker 2: This is not gonna play out well for Eli. He's

447
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 2: going to be an afterthought for several years. Yeah, and

448
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 2: his name is just gonna linger for several years. So

449
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:17,880
Speaker 2: I know there was a lot of noise this year

450
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 2: about first ballad. But you know, I'm not saying he

451
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 2: won't make the Hall of Fame.

452
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:24,159
Speaker 3: It's just gonna take a little bit.

453
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:28,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, because if Brady's coming up and then Aaron Rodgers,

454
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:31,200
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, so the eligibles are gonna show up.

455
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:35,400
Speaker 2: So anyway, again, next time I talk Hall of Fame,

456
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 2: listen to me. All right, When I make a pick,

457
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 2: you can ignore it or bet the other weather away.

458
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,400
Speaker 2: All right, let's find out what it's trending right now.

459
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,480
Speaker 2: The guy that has been doing well as usual everything

460
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 2: everything today, he's co hosting, he's updating. He was a

461
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:55,200
Speaker 2: little I guess disappointed. I wasn't in New Orleans, Martin.

462
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,679
Speaker 2: I wasn't quite sure what was going on there. Let's, uh,

463
00:23:58,080 --> 00:23:59,359
Speaker 2: let's find out right now.

464
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:04,879
Speaker 8: I have two things first quickly, Yeah, and like in

465
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 8: a tweet length answer, Steve, is Eli Manning a Hall

466
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:07,880
Speaker 8: of Fame?

467
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:08,359
Speaker 1: Yes or no?

468
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,120
Speaker 8: That should Eli Manny be a Hall of Famer? Yes

469
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:11,399
Speaker 8: or no?

470
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 3: Yes?

471
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 2: In my opinion, Yes, I don't think Eli Manning was

472
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,480
Speaker 2: ever one of the elite quarterbacks of the NFL, not

473
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 2: even close.

474
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 8: I'm here with you. I'm here with you.

475
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,440
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean again, but I have I'd say

476
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,200
Speaker 2: a third of the guys in the Hall of Fame

477
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 2: I would take out. Oh, they're just doing to me.

478
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 2: You have to be, at some point of your career

479
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 2: one of the top one, two three players at your

480
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 2: position at some point if you are going to be

481
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,920
Speaker 2: immortalized with a bust in Canton, Ohio, the whole you.

482
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 8: Can tell the story. You can't tell the story of

483
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 8: the NFL. You know who You can tell the story

484
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 8: of the NFL without Nick Foles. He also beat Tom

485
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:54,439
Speaker 8: Brady in a Super Bowl. Yeah he did, you know,

486
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 8: Yeah he did, so knock to ELI. But when you're

487
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:58,120
Speaker 8: talking about the Hall of Fame.

488
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 2: Look, this is personal for me because Jim Plunket is

489
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 2: someone I know. I worked with Jim when I was

490
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:06,200
Speaker 2: with the Raiders. He won two Super Bowls, both upset wins.

491
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 2: He got one Super Bowl MVP Award. He's never gotten

492
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 2: a sniff of the Hall of Fame.

493
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:15,200
Speaker 8: So the other thing, which is personal to Steve, which

494
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 8: is why I rolled my eyes at him, just because

495
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 8: when I was there at Glendale, Arizona two Super Bowls

496
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 8: ago and I'll tell you he's never been to Radio

497
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,920
Speaker 8: Row if soom noo. Okay, so when you're there, it's

498
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,880
Speaker 8: not as g and glorious as it once was according

499
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:37,359
Speaker 8: to Steve. But Steve walks around Radio Row like he floats. Okay,

500
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:41,720
Speaker 8: he walks around like he's just a big bat s

501
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 8: on his chest, can't do wrong. And so I have

502
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 8: to find out today Steve showed his opportunity to walk

503
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,320
Speaker 8: around like George Jefferson walking into his apartment.

504
00:25:55,240 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 2: I was shocked, honestly, Martin, you saw me and will

505
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 2: probably be my last appearance ever in what is now

506
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 2: called media Row.

507
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:07,680
Speaker 1: Uh.

508
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 2: The only positive I love how Martin sets this up.

509
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:16,880
Speaker 2: So Chris So, Chris Russo, mad Dog Russo, who I've

510
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,680
Speaker 2: known for a long time, is someone that Martin wanted

511
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,879
Speaker 2: to meet, and then I introduced him. And at that

512
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:25,120
Speaker 2: point Martin wanted to eschew the idea of me being

513
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 2: part of the conversation. It was like, Okay, you introduced me.

514
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:30,440
Speaker 2: It doesn't mean that you have to continue to.

515
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:34,119
Speaker 8: Steve all the time, exactly I was trying to. I

516
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:36,359
Speaker 8: never got an opportunity to talk to Mad Dog Russo.

517
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 8: And this is before he was on ESPN right just

518
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 8: before he had his you know, the gen z TikTokers

519
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,919
Speaker 8: found out. I was on YouTube watching Mike and the

520
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:47,200
Speaker 8: Mad Dog back in the day. Great guy, I've taken

521
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,160
Speaker 8: up a lot of your time. Here's the here's the row.

522
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 8: The Mavericks beat the Rockets one sixteen to one oh five.

523
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,360
Speaker 8: Anthony Davis played thirty one minutes left with a non

524
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:55,360
Speaker 8: contact injury.

525
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:55,879
Speaker 1: Uh.

526
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,119
Speaker 8: They've yet to do imaging. We don't know what the

527
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 8: deal was. He did not return in the game.

528
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 1: Uh.

529
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,360
Speaker 8: This is his first game back from an abdominal injury.

530
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:07,359
Speaker 8: Luca didn't play. Lakers right now thirteen one, thirteen to

531
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 8: one hundred over the Pacers with about five minutes eleven

532
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:12,679
Speaker 8: or fourth quarter. Luca didn't play. Lebron was a late

533
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,440
Speaker 8: scratch and Auburn lost to Florida, their number one team

534
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:15,880
Speaker 8: in the nation.

535
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 2: Back to you guys, all right, man, thank you very much.

536
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:21,160
Speaker 2: All right? Are we going to get h he's ready?

537
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:22,239
Speaker 2: Is he ready to go?

538
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:22,800
Speaker 3: Ready to go?

539
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 2: So you, like I said, I covered many Super Bowls

540
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 2: with this man. Is piling him up? Yes, over the years,

541
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,440
Speaker 2: no question about that. Dan Buyer Johnny is right now

542
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,719
Speaker 2: from New Orleans. How many Super Bowl weeks. Is this

543
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:35,639
Speaker 2: for you now, Dan, over the years?

544
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:39,359
Speaker 6: So my first thought was super Bowl forty So that

545
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:43,240
Speaker 6: was in Detroit, yep, and Steve was there. Myers got

546
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 6: mad at him because Steve was so loud. Yes, I'll

547
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,880
Speaker 6: never forget that one.

548
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 1: And that is a fact.

549
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:52,240
Speaker 2: That is a fact.

550
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:55,880
Speaker 6: Yes, Yes, it's true. So without Super Bowl fifty five

551
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:57,960
Speaker 6: because of COVID, and I didn't go to the game

552
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 6: in LA. But it's about seventeen or eighteen. But yeah,

553
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 6: probably about the last twenty years or so have been

554
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 6: at radio rope.

555
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, and like I said, it's sort of more from

556
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:09,640
Speaker 2: a radio road more to a media role. A lot

557
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:14,160
Speaker 2: of podcasters. I mean, it's it really is a vision

558
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,959
Speaker 2: of how the media has changed, certainly in covering sports

559
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 2: over the years. So, you know, Dan, from this end,

560
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,959
Speaker 2: just as an outside observer, it seems like it's been

561
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 2: a pretty quiet week, which is predictable. With two teams

562
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 2: that know all about Super Bowl weeks, you know you're

563
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:30,879
Speaker 2: not going to make any noise. It just seemed like

564
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 2: early in the week the one prevalent question was why

565
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 2: is everything fixed? For the Kansas City Chiefs. I saw

566
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 2: Goodell was asked that question. Chiefs players were asked that question,

567
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 2: what has been your take of any buzz at all

568
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,400
Speaker 2: that has emanated out of New Orleans this week?

569
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 6: Tom Brady even addressed that question and said it was ridiculous.

570
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 6: I don't think it's foreign that the stars in any

571
00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 6: sport get called.

572
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 1: They think that the whole East.

573
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,600
Speaker 6: Topic just kind of I don't want to they blew

574
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,360
Speaker 6: out of proportion, but it just seems to always happen

575
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 6: and be in favor of the Kansas City Chiefs or

576
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 6: of Patrick Mahomes, especially in some of the biggest spots

577
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 6: that we've seen AFC Championship Game a couple of years

578
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 6: ago against the Bengals, when we saw it against the

579
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 6: Buffalo Bills and the fourth down call. But you know,

580
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 6: we do have to remember what happened when the Chiefs

581
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 6: were playing the Patriots and there's an offside call when

582
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 6: Kansas City could have had an opportunity to go to

583
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 6: the Super Bowl, and instead the Patriots drive stays alive

584
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,120
Speaker 6: and they end up doing it. But yeah, you're right, Steve,

585
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 6: it wasn't dressed earlier in the week, but it's it's

586
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 6: kind of faded. What I find interesting in all of

587
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 6: this because I believe it, and I've read the articles

588
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 6: about Las Vegas and how the action there isn't as

589
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:50,360
Speaker 6: big of a deal. It may not be a big

590
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:53,040
Speaker 6: deal to you and me and Momsey and Martin and

591
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,960
Speaker 6: everybody there and for a lot of the country, but

592
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,080
Speaker 6: it's a big deal to Chiefs Eagles fans. And I

593
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 6: don't know if it's proximity wise where it's a more

594
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 6: doable trip than say Glendale, Arizona, or if you were

595
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,800
Speaker 6: back out in La or wherever. There is a larger

596
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 6: contingent of actual Chiefs and Eagles fans here in New Orleans.

597
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 6: And it also made me because essentially located that I

598
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 6: have seen before. So that's kind of the story that

599
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 6: I kind of feel maybe hasn't been talked about as much.

600
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 6: Not that it's a great story, but the Chiefs getting

601
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 6: favorable calls was something that happened earlier in the week.

602
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 6: But I've been pretty impressed with the turnout of both

603
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 6: fans because it does seem like on a national scale,

604
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 6: we just aren't that interested in this matchup.

605
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 4: That was actually going to be my question, Dan, because

606
00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 4: everyone is saying that, oh, I'm not.

607
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 3: Into the Super Bowl, I'm bored. It's the same teams.

608
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 4: It's not the teams that people necessarily wanted to see,

609
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 4: but you are seeing a lot of.

610
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:47,720
Speaker 3: People in New Orleans.

611
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,960
Speaker 4: I yes, okay, today I just was like everyone saying

612
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 4: they're not going to watch you. You feel like, no,

613
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 4: this is It is just as big of a Super

614
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 4: Bowl as any other year.

615
00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, and I'm actually surprised Montie, because that's not a

616
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 6: would actually be dominated by Eagles the fans, because Kansas

617
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 6: cities just seem to, you know, be here so often. Yeah,

618
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 6: and again it's more convenient for you know, maybe for

619
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 6: their fans to be here. But Philly is really showing up.

620
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 6: And I don't know if it's just the strength of

621
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 6: their fan base, but everywhere you go, you just hear

622
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 6: go bird calls. And it's not meant to say that

623
00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 6: there are more Eagles fans than Chiefs fans here, but

624
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 6: it has been really since Thursday, it's kind of been

625
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,760
Speaker 6: a log jam. And we're centrally located. We're not in

626
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 6: the French Quarter, but we're on the other side of

627
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 6: it by the convention Center, where there's a lot of

628
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 6: restaurants and a lot of things going on. And I

629
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,800
Speaker 6: even walked the French Quarter today and saw just as

630
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 6: many Eagles jerseys as Chiefs jerseys there. But you know,

631
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 6: for Philadelphia fans it would have been a no brainer

632
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,240
Speaker 6: for them to come here. But I'm actually impressed for

633
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 6: the Chiefs who seem to make this an annual trip.

634
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 8: Yeah.

635
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 2: I mean one of the things I've talked about as

636
00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:57,760
Speaker 2: far as the Eagles are concerned, you know, because again

637
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,240
Speaker 2: people just think, well, it's just fixed. You know, the

638
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 2: Chase are going to win this game somehow, whether it's

639
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 2: intentional or unintentional, will find a way. But there's a

640
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 2: big advantage to the Eagles having been there just two

641
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 2: years ago. You know that that's always an X factory.

642
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 2: Has the team been there? Are they overwhelmed by the

643
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 2: whole NFL experience. I don't know if you had a

644
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,320
Speaker 2: chance to get anywhere near some of the players on

645
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 2: either of the team's dan But I think that that,

646
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 2: to me is a great equalizer in this matchup, the

647
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 2: fact that not only were the Eagles there two years ago,

648
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 2: but had it not been for a fluky fumble by

649
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts where he literally just drops the ball and

650
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 2: it bounces into the Chief's hands, and they run for

651
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 2: a touchdown. The Eagles could very well have won that game.

652
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, absolutely, and a late call that went in favor

653
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 6: of the Chiefs that allowed them to milk the clock,

654
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 6: So Harrison Butter could think that game winning figle. Again,

655
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 6: going back to the Chiefs getting all of the calls,

656
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,040
Speaker 6: I think there's a sense of what you're saying that

657
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,600
Speaker 6: is very true. The one thing that I would say,

658
00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:00,680
Speaker 6: and it's not a counter it's just more of adding

659
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 6: on to it, is the Eagles have a lot of

660
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,440
Speaker 6: turnover on defense from the defense two years ago, so

661
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 6: there are a lot of new guys. But I'd be

662
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 6: more worried if that was the case on offense. And

663
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,440
Speaker 6: Jalen Hurts actually played one of the better Super Bowls

664
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,840
Speaker 6: that we've had two years ago for Philadelphia in that game.

665
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:18,800
Speaker 6: I think he's kind of in a weird no win

666
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 6: situation in this contest unless he does what he did

667
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 6: two years ago in Arizona in that loss. But I

668
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:29,760
Speaker 6: think offensively, you're right. The only one who is really

669
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:32,360
Speaker 6: new to the scene is Saquon Barkley, and I think

670
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 6: that we all feel that he's going to show up

671
00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 6: and do what he does. But on the offensive side

672
00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:39,120
Speaker 6: of the ball. I do think that that does help Philadelphia.

673
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:40,959
Speaker 6: If it was the other way around, where he had

674
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 6: defensive guys and maybe new players on offense that maybe

675
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 6: think it was an issue. But I think you're right.

676
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 6: I think that does help Philly that that offensive unit

677
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 6: by and large has been at the Super Bowl before.

678
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 3: Dan, Before we let you go, who do you have winning?

679
00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 2: What is the score?

680
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 6: Well, I do want to say, well, it's my eighteenth

681
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 6: or nineteenth super Bowl. It's also like my eighteenth or

682
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 6: nineteenth straight in the year of hearing the Steve Hartman

683
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 6: have started Radio Row story, So I was glad that

684
00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:09,640
Speaker 6: I got to hear that that street continues. Even though

685
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 6: I'm not with you guys in Los Angeles, it does

686
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:15,720
Speaker 6: continue in twenty twenty five. I'm siding with the Eagles,

687
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 6: and it's a little bit of what Steve said. I

688
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,120
Speaker 6: also think that Kansas City, every time they stepped on

689
00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:24,280
Speaker 6: the field this year, their defensive line was the best

690
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 6: unit that was on the field, and I think Philadelphia

691
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 6: matches up well in that scenario. So I know the

692
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 6: chief sero point favorite. I like Philadelphia in this one,

693
00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:36,399
Speaker 6: and I'm taking you over. I'm saying thirty three, twenty

694
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:38,359
Speaker 6: seven Philadelphia, And by the way, for.

695
00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 2: All your media friends and Dan Osamal, why didn't they

696
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,040
Speaker 2: listen to me last Saturday when I broke the story

697
00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:47,480
Speaker 2: that Eli Manning had already been eliminated from the Hall

698
00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:49,799
Speaker 2: of Fame vote. The vote was done three weeks ago.

699
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 2: I already had that story, I said. I didn't want

700
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:54,880
Speaker 2: to reveal all the guys that have been eliminated. I

701
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,319
Speaker 2: just wanted to make sure every understood Eli Manning will

702
00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 2: not be in the Hall of Fame this year. Doesn't

703
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:00,719
Speaker 2: mean he can't be in the YouTube, but it won't

704
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,560
Speaker 2: happen this year. And then all week long, Eli's gonna

705
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:05,440
Speaker 2: make it. I'm like, did you guys listen to me?

706
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 8: I got the story.

707
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,800
Speaker 6: I'm just glad they showed restraint and just fill a class.

708
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:13,400
Speaker 6: I thought there were other guys that maybe should have

709
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,400
Speaker 6: gotten in, but they've been jamming guys in for the

710
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,520
Speaker 6: last twenty years, and the finally show restrained time that

711
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:20,440
Speaker 6: I appreciated.

712
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 2: I'm with you one hundred percent. Well, Dan, enjoy the

Speaker 2: live from me, Steve, what a breath tire rack dot

729
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 2: com Studios. I love this song.

730
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:06,240
Speaker 3: It's a good song. It's a good jam.

731
00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:09,279
Speaker 4: It's one of those where everyone starts moving like it

732
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,760
Speaker 4: comes on, even just a little bob like, everyone starts

733
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:13,640
Speaker 4: moving with the song.

734
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:16,799
Speaker 2: The all reason I jumped in so quick as we're

735
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 2: really up against it.

736
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 3: We are a good song.

737
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 2: It is, by the way, sort of a final note

738
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:27,240
Speaker 2: on we're talking about the Hall of Fame. But yeah,

739
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:31,880
Speaker 2: I mean when they said Josh Allen MVP over Lamar Jackson,

740
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:36,360
Speaker 2: I mean to put this in perspective. So the last

741
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:42,400
Speaker 2: time that the MVP was a quarterback who was not

742
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 2: first Team All Pro and it was a little bit

743
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 2: of It was a year that Steve McNair and Peyton

744
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 2: Manning tied in the MVP, and obviously Peyton was First Team.

745
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 2: But the last time it really happened was nineteen eighty

746
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 2: seven when Joe Montana was First Team All Pro and

747
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 2: John Elway won the MVP award. I was I did

748
00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 2: not see that coming at all, But indeed Josh Allen

749
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 2: was voted Most Valuable Player over Lamar Jackson. What's crazy

750
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,239
Speaker 2: about this is when you look at his numbers this

751
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,680
Speaker 2: year Lamar Jackson opposed of last year, It's like night

752
00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 2: and day. Oh yeah, And last year he got all

753
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:24,520
Speaker 2: but one first place vote he won. He got forty

754
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 2: nine out of fifty first place votes. But this year

755
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 2: the electors went a different direction.

756
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:29,520
Speaker 8: Yeah.

757
00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 4: I mean I was very vocal about last year that

758
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:36,160
Speaker 4: I thought it was Christian McCaffrey easier to be the MVP.

759
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,399
Speaker 3: And it wasn't that Lamar was bad.

760
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 4: I just thought Lamar had a really good defense that

761
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:45,280
Speaker 4: really solidified their number one seed. And you just mentioned

762
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:48,360
Speaker 4: he wasn't top ten in any of the categories. This year,

763
00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 4: he blew everybody out. He was a top in all

764
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 4: the categories. But I Vegas is never wrong. So Josh

765
00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:59,000
Speaker 4: Allen was always favored to win MVP the entire time.

766
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 4: And so I was like, I don't think Vegas is wrong.

767
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,839
Speaker 4: And I had heard that stat that since in eighty seven.

768
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:06,440
Speaker 4: You said, right that that had never happened. But I

769
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 4: was like, Vegas is never wrong. Like they have to

770
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,759
Speaker 4: know something, just like you knew something, you're insider. I

771
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,400
Speaker 4: was like, so I thought it was I thought it

772
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 4: was a big possibility, just because the entire season, Josh

773
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,279
Speaker 4: Allen had the edge of winning the MVP.

774
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:21,440
Speaker 3: According to Las Vegas.

775
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:23,840
Speaker 2: Well, I look at you could certainly make an argument

776
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:27,280
Speaker 2: for Saquon Barklay. Yeah, and again it's you know, it's

777
00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 2: like a quarterback award, and Saquon gets Offensive Player of

778
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,440
Speaker 2: the Year, just like Cooper Cupp was. It seems like

779
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,879
Speaker 2: offensive player of the year more often than not, we'll

780
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,040
Speaker 2: go to a running back or a wide receiver. Yes,

781
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:38,759
Speaker 2: that kind of thing.

782
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:39,919
Speaker 3: Yes, it seems that way.

783
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:42,960
Speaker 2: You know of all the stats, and you look, I'm

784
00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:45,239
Speaker 2: already on record with the Eagles, so I've been that.

785
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:47,520
Speaker 2: So what we'll talk more about that next hour. By

786
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 2: the way, Adam Kaplan will join us. But here's something again.

787
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 2: Someone said, what give me a key stat for this game.

788
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:58,320
Speaker 2: I go, that's very simple. Saquon Barkley has had fourteen

789
00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:01,920
Speaker 2: hundred yard rushing days, including the playoffs, and the Eagles

790
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:05,960
Speaker 2: have won thirteen of those fourteen games. On the other side,

791
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:08,719
Speaker 2: the Chiefs have yet to allow any running back get

792
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,239
Speaker 2: one hundred yards rushing. Right, I think that is so

793
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:15,880
Speaker 2: that is that is that's the start. Right. If Barkley

794
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:20,320
Speaker 2: gets one hundred yards rushing in this game, the Eagles

795
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:26,200
Speaker 2: will win. Yeah, one percent. There is no way I

796
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:29,759
Speaker 2: can see him having over one hundred yards and not

797
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:31,439
Speaker 2: winning and not winning the game.

798
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:33,680
Speaker 4: I actually I hear what you're saying. But I think

799
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,919
Speaker 4: that is a possibility still because when the Chiefs played

800
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 4: the ravens Lamar had over one hundred rushing yards, so

801
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:41,960
Speaker 4: they have a lot of player to do that.

802
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,919
Speaker 2: It just wasn't a running back, so they could.

803
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 4: Obviously, the goal is stop saying one Barkley, that is

804
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:49,920
Speaker 4: the obvious goal for the Chiefs.

805
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 2: All right, Well, we have a lot of numbers for

806
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:53,840
Speaker 2: you to break down as we get ready for the

807
00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:56,440
Speaker 2: big game. And that's why we're here. We're going to

808
00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:58,960
Speaker 2: make this as easy for you as possible. And when

809
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 2: you make that wager, this is Fox Football Saturday.

810
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:06,880
Speaker 8: Yeah, rolling along here.

811
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:10,360
Speaker 2: As we are getting ever so close, ever so close,

812
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 2: I know, in fact, less than.

813
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:15,880
Speaker 3: Twenty five and twenty four hours away.

814
00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:18,640
Speaker 2: Less than twenty four hours away the kickoff of Super

815
00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 2: Bowl fifty nine between the Chiefs and the Eagles, and

Speaker 2: way tire buying should be.

821
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:40,239
Speaker 1: So.

822
00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:45,120
Speaker 2: I watched a repeat of Super Bowl fifty seven two

823
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:47,920
Speaker 2: years ago between the Eagles and the Chiefs, and that

824
00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:53,240
Speaker 2: was a wildly entertaining game. Again, if Jalen Hurts plays

825
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:55,839
Speaker 2: anywhere near the level he did two years ago, forget it.

826
00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:58,879
Speaker 2: This game is over. He played that well in the game.

827
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:03,319
Speaker 2: But you know, everyone's been talking about the Chiefs and

828
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:05,960
Speaker 2: this is really weird for me. By the way, twenty

829
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:09,920
Speaker 2: five years ago today, one of the greatest Chiefs players

830
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,600
Speaker 2: of all time, Derek Thomas, passed away. In the aftermath

831
00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:17,359
Speaker 2: of an automobile accident that he had been involved in.

832
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 2: I mentioned that because one I got to know Derek,

833
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 2: he was in our celebrity race in Long Beach.

834
00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:24,440
Speaker 8: He was what a character.

835
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:26,959
Speaker 2: This guy was, Hall of Fame linebacker and everything else.

836
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,360
Speaker 2: But he played in an era where you know, the

837
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:32,120
Speaker 2: Chiefs were had some decent years, but they were never

838
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:36,239
Speaker 2: really serious contenders. And you know, they only they hadn't

839
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:39,680
Speaker 2: been in a super Bowl, you know, for fifty years,

840
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:44,359
Speaker 2: until all of a sudden, Patrick Mahomes showed up. And

841
00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 2: now here they are in their fifth super Bowl in

842
00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:50,680
Speaker 2: six years. That has never happened before. Crazy, that's never

843
00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,960
Speaker 2: happened before. They are the first team ever to win

844
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,359
Speaker 2: back to back Super Bowls and actually get to the

845
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 2: super Bowl with a chance of winning a third consecutive

846
00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:02,200
Speaker 2: Super Bowl. And so it just seems weird to me

847
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:06,320
Speaker 2: as a kid. I like the Chiefs because of their uniforms.

848
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:08,879
Speaker 2: I just I love the color and everything else. And

849
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,400
Speaker 2: I mean, this is going back to the AFL days.

850
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:17,040
Speaker 2: But it's just amazing how a team that he had

851
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:21,080
Speaker 2: been so insignificant really unless you're a diehard fan of

852
00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:23,680
Speaker 2: that team for so many years. It's very similar to

853
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:29,160
Speaker 2: the Patriots before Tom Brady suddenly gets that label hated team.

854
00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:33,840
Speaker 2: And what is there really to hate if you're the Chiefs.

855
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,719
Speaker 2: I mean, you're a Taylor Swift fan, so we'll get

856
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:41,520
Speaker 2: into that whole dynamic. But when you look at Patrick Mahomes,

857
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:46,319
Speaker 2: what's there to hate about Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid? I mean,

858
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:51,120
Speaker 2: the lovable schlub that he is, football genius that he is,

859
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:54,920
Speaker 2: And I just I'm trying to figure out where or

860
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 2: why other than the fact that they're just good and

861
00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,839
Speaker 2: they I'm ways to win games. Shouldn't that be more

862
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:04,720
Speaker 2: admired than hated.

863
00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:05,799
Speaker 3: I mean, we've.

864
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 4: Talked about this, how I don't hate the Chiefs. They

865
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:11,000
Speaker 4: don't bother me and I'm not a Chiefs fan. And

866
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,239
Speaker 4: it has nothing to do with Taylor Swift. I love

867
00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:15,480
Speaker 4: Taylor Swift, nothing to do with that.

868
00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:21,560
Speaker 3: I feel that the people just want to find something

869
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:24,160
Speaker 3: to be mad about. There is no real reason.

870
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:28,600
Speaker 4: You're right, why you don't like Travis Kelsey because he's

871
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:32,320
Speaker 4: dating Taylor Swift. You don't like Patrick Mahomes because he

872
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:35,719
Speaker 4: has adorable babies and a wife that loves him.

873
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:39,360
Speaker 3: I don't know, Andy Reid. He just wants to have

874
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:40,239
Speaker 3: a cheeseburger.

875
00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:43,960
Speaker 4: How like, really though, Steve Spagnolo, how I don't know

876
00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:45,720
Speaker 4: why they're hated.

877
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:46,359
Speaker 3: I don't know.

878
00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:51,560
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, look, obviously, Harrison Bucker, with his political

879
00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:55,319
Speaker 2: beliefs religious beliefs, drew the iyer of some people. He

880
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 2: was confronted by the Way in New Orleans about that. Yeah,

881
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,600
Speaker 2: that's one players the kicker. He's the kicker, right, that's what.

882
00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:06,640
Speaker 4: And if you say I don't like him, it's like, okay, fine,

883
00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:08,640
Speaker 4: you don't like him, right that, like you just said,

884
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:11,320
Speaker 4: that's a perfect example. But for everyone else it doesn't

885
00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:14,520
Speaker 4: make sense. Okay, Patrick Mahomes brother, maybe like is that

886
00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:15,399
Speaker 4: why you don't like him?

887
00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:18,880
Speaker 2: Again? This stat of all the things that Chiefs, the

888
00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:23,680
Speaker 2: Chiefs have won now seventeen straight one score games. You really,

889
00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 2: you know you hear a stat like, oh that that's good. No, no, no,

890
00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:32,480
Speaker 2: you don't understand. You don't understand. I mean, if you're

891
00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:36,480
Speaker 2: betting on anything, it's a fifty to fifty proposition, right,

892
00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:38,640
Speaker 2: I mean, that's it. I mean, it's like you're betting

893
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:40,839
Speaker 2: for a team one word or the other. Either they're

894
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 2: gonna win or they're gonna lose. You know, over under.

895
00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:47,480
Speaker 2: I mean, it's a fifty to fifty one score games

896
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:50,520
Speaker 2: if you look at it, traditionally, even out over time,

897
00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:54,239
Speaker 2: but none of them, but not with this Chiefs team.

898
00:44:54,400 --> 00:45:01,160
Speaker 2: The fact, the fact is they, yeah, people, we talk

899
00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:04,000
Speaker 2: about their offense, and their offense hasn't been very special.

900
00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:07,239
Speaker 2: And this AFC Championship game was their first thirty point

901
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:09,799
Speaker 2: game of the year. And the answer to that is

902
00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:11,959
Speaker 2: because that's the first game they actually had to score

903
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:15,239
Speaker 2: thirty points to win, right, I mean, that's it, I

904
00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:17,399
Speaker 2: mean happens. I mean you throw away the last game

905
00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 2: obviously against Denver where they didn't play anybody. Their only

906
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:25,239
Speaker 2: other loss was to Buffalo. And so this team is

907
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:30,440
Speaker 2: so good right now that they can control the narrative

908
00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 2: and literally only have to score as many points as

909
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:40,240
Speaker 2: they have to score because in the NFL, unlike college football,

910
00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:42,600
Speaker 2: we have to impress polsters and move up in the

911
00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:46,560
Speaker 2: polls and everything else. That there's no style points in

912
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:50,120
Speaker 2: the NFL. It is a hard line. Either you win

913
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:55,480
Speaker 2: or you lose, and how you win doesn't matter. In

914
00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:59,560
Speaker 2: the NFL, It's just about win names The Chiefs not

915
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:00,800
Speaker 2: trying to prove anything.

916
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 4: They've already proved it They don't need to score forty

917
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:07,239
Speaker 4: on you for you to see what kind of team

918
00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:07,600
Speaker 4: they are.

919
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:08,680
Speaker 3: They've been showing us for.

920
00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:12,000
Speaker 4: The last five out of six years how good they are,

921
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:13,200
Speaker 4: and it.

922
00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:15,080
Speaker 3: They we've talked about. I said it.

923
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 4: I'm like, I feel like they just do what they

924
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,239
Speaker 4: need to do to win. Like you score, Okay, we

925
00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:21,520
Speaker 4: gotta score. You didn't score, all right, We're gonna try

926
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:23,080
Speaker 4: to score, you know, like they're they're not.

927
00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:24,400
Speaker 2: They don't have to prove anything.

928
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:26,319
Speaker 4: And I do think, you know, sitting here, when you

929
00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:29,239
Speaker 4: ask why do people not like them, it has to

930
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:32,279
Speaker 4: be a little bit of the access we have to

931
00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 4: these athletes because of social media. You know, like back

932
00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:38,040
Speaker 4: then you would just see them on TV playing and

933
00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:39,480
Speaker 4: you didn't really know the type.

934
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 3: Of person they were.

935
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:44,560
Speaker 4: But because Travis Kelcey does a podcast, because Patrick Mahomes's

936
00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:47,479
Speaker 4: wife is all over on social media post, I feel

937
00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:51,680
Speaker 4: like people think they know them, that they know them personally,

938
00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:55,160
Speaker 4: and they've developed these ideas as to why they don't

939
00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:57,279
Speaker 4: like them. And I think this goes across not just

940
00:46:57,320 --> 00:47:00,239
Speaker 4: the Chiefs, but the Chiefs right now because they're in

941
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,440
Speaker 4: the Super Bowl again and people really seem to not

942
00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:05,200
Speaker 4: like them. It's I think this is just what's happening

943
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:09,640
Speaker 4: with people feeling like you know a famous person because

944
00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:11,160
Speaker 4: of social media.

945
00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 3: And like you know them and thus you don't like them.

946
00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:14,800
Speaker 3: When Retta, you don't know them, well.

947
00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:17,080
Speaker 2: Hate watch hate watch you.

948
00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:17,520
Speaker 1: Yeah.

949
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:20,239
Speaker 2: When the Chargers moved out of San Diego, I'm in

950
00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:22,759
Speaker 2: San Diego. The Chargers of left town to La, right,

951
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:25,520
Speaker 2: and they're trying to convince these Charger fans of San

952
00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:28,719
Speaker 2: Diego to truck up to some soccer stadium, you know,

953
00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:31,319
Speaker 2: and Carson Yeah, went to several of them, and you know,

954
00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:33,920
Speaker 2: they get the collective bird from all the San Diego

955
00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:36,719
Speaker 2: Charger fans. I mean, I don't think they understand how

956
00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:40,640
Speaker 2: much San Diego hates LA hates La. LA doesn't hate

957
00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:43,000
Speaker 2: San Diego. LA didn't he want the Chargers. They're like,

958
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:45,040
Speaker 2: we live them in San Diego. That's why we go

959
00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:45,880
Speaker 2: to San Diego.

960
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:47,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's true.

961
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:52,400
Speaker 2: So, but that first year, the TV numbers for the

962
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:56,160
Speaker 2: Charger games were biggins because people were hate watching. So

963
00:47:56,520 --> 00:47:59,160
Speaker 2: if you're one of those people that are sick and

964
00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:04,080
Speaker 2: tired of the Chiefs hating that fixes in you're watching right.

965
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:04,760
Speaker 8: Yeah.

966
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 2: I remember years ago when they did the Howard Stern

967
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:13,399
Speaker 2: movie and they were talking about Howard Stern and his

968
00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 2: ratings when he first like became big, and they were like,

969
00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:19,359
Speaker 2: you know, why are all these people listening? He goes, well,

970
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:22,839
Speaker 2: here's the really crazy part. Those that identify that they

971
00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:27,480
Speaker 2: hate him actually listen to him longer than those that

972
00:48:27,760 --> 00:48:28,080
Speaker 2: like him.

973
00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:28,359
Speaker 6: Yep.

974
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:32,400
Speaker 2: So when people say, well, people aren't interested in the

975
00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:35,640
Speaker 2: super Bowl, I don't buy that because if there is

976
00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:40,880
Speaker 2: that much disdain for the Chiefs, you're watching and rooting

977
00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:45,799
Speaker 2: like crazy for them to lose. It's not about the

978
00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:49,759
Speaker 2: Eagles winning. It's about the Chiefs losing.

979
00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:52,920
Speaker 4: Absolutely. I hate watch the Lakers.

980
00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:55,080
Speaker 3: For years and years years.

981
00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 4: I watched more Laker games than I should have because

982
00:48:57,680 --> 00:48:59,120
Speaker 4: I hated them so much.

983
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,160
Speaker 2: Let me ask you this, And if they lost a

984
00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:01,960
Speaker 2: big game.

985
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:02,839
Speaker 3: Oh I felt so good?

986
00:49:03,160 --> 00:49:05,320
Speaker 8: Was it almost better than your team winning?

987
00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:05,520
Speaker 6: Yes?

988
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:08,760
Speaker 4: Yes, absolutely, you know what I mean, Like when Kobe

989
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:10,680
Speaker 4: would miss a shot, I was like, yes, you know,

990
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:13,640
Speaker 4: like I enjoyed them losing.

991
00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:16,160
Speaker 2: If you are a hater of the Chiefs, and if

992
00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:20,960
Speaker 2: the Taylor Swift dynamic has only amplified that, how much

993
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:25,520
Speaker 2: do you want to see her and Travis like crying?

994
00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:29,400
Speaker 2: Devastating that ring he was going to pull out to propose,

995
00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:32,200
Speaker 2: he puts it back in his pocket. Not the right

996
00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:33,279
Speaker 2: mom mailing.

997
00:49:34,080 --> 00:49:36,480
Speaker 3: That's what you want everyone.

998
00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:38,279
Speaker 4: Not everyone, but a lot of people on social media like,

999
00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:41,160
Speaker 4: I'm not watching this is it's rigged.

1000
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 2: I'm not worry.

1001
00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:44,279
Speaker 4: I am so curious to see the final numbers the

1002
00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:46,839
Speaker 4: next day as to how many people watch the Super

1003
00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:49,279
Speaker 4: Bowl because I think everyone's going to be watching this game.

1004
00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:54,400
Speaker 2: These are the two best teams right now in the NFL.

1005
00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:58,319
Speaker 2: There the point spread is, it's a point It's a

1006
00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:02,120
Speaker 2: pickham game. It's a pick them game. And that's because

1007
00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:06,680
Speaker 2: we have two really good teams that have been there, done,

1008
00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:11,760
Speaker 2: that know each other. This is really what you want

1009
00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:15,840
Speaker 2: in a Super Bowl. You want an even matchup, and

1010
00:50:16,040 --> 00:50:18,360
Speaker 2: this is an even matchup.

1011
00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:21,360
Speaker 4: I don't care who wins, right like I don't have

1012
00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:22,239
Speaker 4: a dog in the fight.

1013
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:24,480
Speaker 3: I have picked.

1014
00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:26,239
Speaker 4: The Chiefs to three peats since before the start of

1015
00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:29,800
Speaker 4: the season. But if the Eagles win, I would feel

1016
00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:33,879
Speaker 4: so happy for Saquon Barkley and Jalen Hurts. I would

1017
00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:37,000
Speaker 4: feel so happy for them. Nick Sirianni not so much,

1018
00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:40,839
Speaker 4: but I would feel so happy for Jalen Hurts and

1019
00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:44,319
Speaker 4: Saquon to have pulled this off together, you know, like

1020
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:47,520
Speaker 4: it would be. I don't care who wins. I really don't,

1021
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:50,560
Speaker 4: but I am. I'm just hoping for a good game

1022
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:52,799
Speaker 4: right coming down to the final, even.

1023
00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:56,480
Speaker 2: Though a well, look, we've had great games. Actually we

1024
00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:59,000
Speaker 2: had an overtime, and I mean the last couple of

1025
00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:01,560

1055
00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:44,480
Speaker 2: So Adam, we have a lot to talk about and

1056
00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:46,759
Speaker 2: we want to get to everything. But the first thing,

1057
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:50,839
Speaker 2: when we talked to you last week, I already had

1058
00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:53,760
Speaker 2: the inside word that Eli Manning did not make the cut.

1059
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:58,279
Speaker 2: So I have an insider, and I actually after you

1060
00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:00,439
Speaker 2: were on the air a half hour later, I broke

1061
00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:03,920
Speaker 2: it on the air for our listeners. Cool that I

1062
00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:06,000
Speaker 2: know the eight people that did not make the cut.

1063
00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:08,360
Speaker 2: It was a different cut this year. Instead of fifteen

1064
00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:10,279
Speaker 2: to ten, ten to five, it was fifteen to ten,

1065
00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:14,319
Speaker 2: ten to seven. And I knew that Eli Manning did

1066
00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:16,680
Speaker 2: not make the cut. And yet all week long, I'm

1067
00:53:16,719 --> 00:53:20,839
Speaker 2: listening to all these geniuses talking about, Oh, yeah, he's in,

1068
00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:24,080
Speaker 2: he's in, He's in. I'm like, no, I knew that

1069
00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:24,720
Speaker 2: he wasn't.

1070
00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:28,920
Speaker 9: I'm surprised though, that it would be that much. I mean,

1071
00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:30,640
Speaker 9: to be honest with you, being on Radio Row is

1072
00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:33,120
Speaker 9: not discussed at all. I mean, I must have interviewed

1073
00:53:33,120 --> 00:53:35,480
Speaker 9: for Sports Girard seventy people. We didn't talk about it,

1074
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:41,239
Speaker 9: but just because it was as you know, Thursday, this

1075
00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:46,400
Speaker 9: all came out, the buzz about Eric Allen getting in

1076
00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:48,479
Speaker 9: that it actually got out a couple hours before.

1077
00:53:48,719 --> 00:53:50,040
Speaker 1: Yes, I'm so happy that he got.

1078
00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:51,080
Speaker 2: Oh he's the best.

1079
00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:53,279
Speaker 1: It's a great dude. As you know, I love Eric,

1080
00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:53,879
Speaker 1: a great guy.

1081
00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:54,879
Speaker 2: So excited for him.

1082
00:53:54,880 --> 00:53:58,200
Speaker 9: One of the best human beings ever me ever it is,

1083
00:53:58,239 --> 00:54:01,080
Speaker 9: and that that's you know, the tie in with Eli Manning.

1084
00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:05,879
Speaker 9: It's like, okay, well Eric has been waiting so long

1085
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:07,960
Speaker 9: as you go to the Senior Committee. What's going to

1086
00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:11,840
Speaker 9: happen here? Eli can wait. You know, there's been a

1087
00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:14,840
Speaker 9: big debate whether Eli should ever get in because numbers

1088
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:17,240
Speaker 9: were never that good. It's kind of like with Joe Namath. Yeah,

1089
00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:19,520
Speaker 9: Joe Navis, his numbers were never that good. He just

1090
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:20,320
Speaker 9: won a Super Bowl.

1091
00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:22,080
Speaker 2: But he also was the first guy to have four

1092
00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:24,960
Speaker 2: thousand yards passing. I mean there were miles stats exactly

1093
00:54:25,520 --> 00:54:28,200
Speaker 2: back in those days. But there's nothing like that on

1094
00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:31,920
Speaker 2: Eli Manning. So as a MAZ two Super Bowl wins, I.

1095
00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:35,000
Speaker 9: Don't vote for the Hall of Fame. I voted in

1096
00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:38,719
Speaker 9: two polls for every single word. Uh, and you know,

1097
00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:40,640
Speaker 9: I'm glad, by the way, Well, although the one that

1098
00:54:40,719 --> 00:54:43,680
Speaker 9: surprised me, I I still think Lamar Jackson had a

1099
00:54:43,760 --> 00:54:47,320
Speaker 9: better year. Again, we have to look at that stuff, guys.

1100
00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:49,839
Speaker 9: Is that it's the totality of the regular season. It's

1101
00:54:49,880 --> 00:54:51,720
Speaker 9: not the second half. I think a lot of people

1102
00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:53,960
Speaker 9: a recency bias on the spectacular second.

1103
00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:55,720
Speaker 2: What do you think that was? I mean I was shocked.

1104
00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:58,839
Speaker 2: Why do you think ultimately, and by the way, how

1105
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:01,160
Speaker 2: do you feel all of their vot were then revealed

1106
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:01,920
Speaker 2: for the first time?

1107
00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:03,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't see that yeah.

1108
00:55:03,360 --> 00:55:06,040
Speaker 2: By the way, how does Tom Brady have a vote

1109
00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:08,799
Speaker 2: when he's the Raiders.

1110
00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:11,600
Speaker 8: I agree with you that there's a lot of weird

1111
00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:12,480
Speaker 8: on that committee.

1112
00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:15,279
Speaker 9: There's a lot of weirdness, But I do like that

1113
00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:19,759
Speaker 9: the writers like Paul Domowitch long time, he's retired, but

1114
00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:24,839
Speaker 9: he still participates. A Philadelphia area reporter, he was really

1115
00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:28,279
Speaker 9: calumnist for many years for the newspapers, and he was

1116
00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:30,560
Speaker 9: the guy who pitched Eric Allen. And it took a

1117
00:55:30,560 --> 00:55:32,880
Speaker 9: lot of work. And that's what you need, you know,

1118
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:35,120
Speaker 9: that's that's as you know, guys.

1119
00:55:35,120 --> 00:55:38,160
Speaker 2: But how shocked were you about this Josh Allen situation?

1120
00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:42,080
Speaker 1: I was surprised. I didn't. Again, I voted for two poles.

1121
00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:45,359
Speaker 9: Pro Football writer associations by far the most developed, I

1122
00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:49,759
Speaker 9: think fair and researched a lot of us who cover

1123
00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:52,960
Speaker 9: the league not just from a national basis, but locally

1124
00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:54,560
Speaker 9: or we you know, we have access to a lot

1125
00:55:54,560 --> 00:55:56,920
Speaker 9: of really smart people, and I didn't think it was

1126
00:55:56,960 --> 00:55:58,759
Speaker 9: really that close, to be honest with you, from my

1127
00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:02,080
Speaker 9: point of view, but the AP voters thought that Josh

1128
00:56:02,160 --> 00:56:03,640
Speaker 9: allensch Again and again, I think there's a little bit

1129
00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:04,640
Speaker 9: of recncy bias on it.

1130
00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:09,000
Speaker 4: Adam, we're less than twenty four hours away from game time.

1131
00:56:09,920 --> 00:56:11,600
Speaker 3: You cover the Eagles.

1132
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:17,799
Speaker 4: How surprised are you that Brandon Graham seems to be

1133
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:18,759
Speaker 4: available to play?

1134
00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:19,760
Speaker 1: He's going to play.

1135
00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:23,799
Speaker 9: So what happened was he tours left triceps in week

1136
00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:26,160
Speaker 9: twelve at the Rams and he said after the game,

1137
00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:26,680
Speaker 9: I'm done.

1138
00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:29,799
Speaker 1: A couple weeks in he said he was done on

1139
00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:30,440
Speaker 1: local radio.

1140
00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:34,200
Speaker 9: He is a spot early in the week on VIP

1141
00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:39,080
Speaker 9: and he basically said, about three weeks ago, don't count

1142
00:56:39,080 --> 00:56:40,920
Speaker 9: me out. I think I got a shot to play

1143
00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:44,600
Speaker 9: because he doesn't have to be able to do everything

1144
00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:47,920
Speaker 9: he was doing before. So my feeling I've kind of

1145
00:56:47,960 --> 00:56:51,000
Speaker 9: worked this around New Orleans this week is that you'll

1146
00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:54,000
Speaker 9: see him as a situational pass rusher. That was a

1147
00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:56,120
Speaker 9: really good run defenter. You probably won't see him doing

1148
00:56:56,200 --> 00:56:57,879
Speaker 9: much of that, if at all. You probably won't play

1149
00:56:57,880 --> 00:57:00,480
Speaker 9: in goal line situations. I'm sure you're already surprised me

1150
00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:02,719
Speaker 9: if he did because of the triceps. By the way,

1151
00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:04,759
Speaker 9: from your elbow to it just before the top of

1152
00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:05,960
Speaker 9: your shoulder, it's.

1153
00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:08,040
Speaker 1: On the back of your arm. It's his left arm.

1154
00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:10,840
Speaker 9: Now, what's interesting is the only player that I know

1155
00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:13,440
Speaker 9: who's ever torn it and come back in the regular

1156
00:57:13,480 --> 00:57:16,400
Speaker 9: season is a former Eagle. Hollis Thomas was with the

1157
00:57:16,400 --> 00:57:18,000
Speaker 9: Saints in two thousand and eight. He missed two and

1158
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,800
Speaker 9: a half months. Now, he was a backup then barely played.

1159
00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:23,680
Speaker 9: He was near the end of his career. And Brandon Graham,

1160
00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:26,640
Speaker 9: who's thirty six years old, turns thirty seven in April

1161
00:57:27,520 --> 00:57:29,040
Speaker 9: and will go in the team's Hall of Fame.

1162
00:57:29,080 --> 00:57:29,959
Speaker 1: He's going to play tomorrow.

1163
00:57:29,960 --> 00:57:33,480
Speaker 9: That's a lock. The question is can he see fifteen snaps?

1164
00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:34,120
Speaker 9: Ten snaps?

1165
00:57:34,120 --> 00:57:34,360
Speaker 1: Now?

1166
00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:36,440
Speaker 9: The one issue that you have is and I know

1167
00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:39,000
Speaker 9: that you know he was able to ride a bike

1168
00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:42,720
Speaker 9: and stay in shape and treadmill and all that. You

1169
00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:45,120
Speaker 9: just don't know about game conditioning and you know, the

1170
00:57:45,160 --> 00:57:46,440
Speaker 9: least day of the games endors you don't have to

1171
00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:47,960
Speaker 9: worry about being outside or getting hot.

1172
00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:50,959
Speaker 1: But that's he's an incredible football player. Guys.

1173
00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:53,360
Speaker 9: His best game of the last two years have to

1174
00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:54,680
Speaker 9: be in that game that he got hurt. He was

1175
00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:57,200
Speaker 9: unstoppable and unfortunately in that game of tour the triceps.

1176
00:57:57,600 --> 00:58:00,720
Speaker 2: What about this virus is spreading the locker with the Eagles,

1177
00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:01,800
Speaker 2: give us an update on that.

1178
00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:03,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're going to everyone's going to play.

1179
00:58:03,800 --> 00:58:07,080
Speaker 9: In fact, Jalen Carter, they were really worried because what

1180
00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:10,080
Speaker 9: happens is when a player gets the flu or virus,

1181
00:58:10,120 --> 00:58:12,880
Speaker 9: they isolate them. And what they do is they put

1182
00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:15,880
Speaker 9: the player on Microsoft teams with the rest of his teammates.

1183
00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:18,360
Speaker 9: If the guy cannot be there. Now, the good thing

1184
00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:19,720
Speaker 9: is they caught it early.

1185
00:58:20,320 --> 00:58:20,560
Speaker 1: Now.

1186
00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:24,960
Speaker 9: Last week, Nolan Smith, one of their starting edgetrushers, had it.

1187
00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:27,640
Speaker 9: He got rid of it. There were like three or

1188
00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:31,000
Speaker 9: four players who were dealing with very limited symptoms, but

1189
00:58:31,040 --> 00:58:32,680
Speaker 9: they were all able to practice, so they're going to

1190
00:58:32,760 --> 00:58:34,560
Speaker 9: be able to go. So the good thing is now

1191
00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:38,160
Speaker 9: from entry standpoint, Chaser clean, all fifty three players in

1192
00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:42,320
Speaker 9: the roster will be available for the game. They got

1193
00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:45,080
Speaker 9: Eagles got Brandon Graham cleared. He's going to play.

1194
00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:45,800
Speaker 1: Kenny game well.

1195
00:58:45,840 --> 00:58:47,880
Speaker 9: By the way, Eagles number two back and by far

1196
00:58:47,920 --> 00:58:50,840
Speaker 9: the best pass protector. Yes, he is better than Saquon

1197
00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:53,280
Speaker 9: Barklay one thing, that's why he plays more than Barklay

1198
00:58:53,360 --> 00:58:54,360
Speaker 9: and pass the situations.

1199
00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:56,760
Speaker 1: He's been cleared, I could cush a protocol. So they're

1200
00:58:56,800 --> 00:58:57,280
Speaker 1: ready to go.

1201
00:58:58,440 --> 00:59:02,320
Speaker 4: So, Adam, what are your thoughts on if hypothetically the

1202
00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:04,840
Speaker 4: Chiefs win. Do you think we're going to hear some

1203
00:59:05,960 --> 00:59:08,080
Speaker 4: retirement announcement?

1204
00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:10,000
Speaker 9: Kelse, I don't think so. With a kind of money,

1205
00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:14,400
Speaker 9: I can't. He didn't indicate that just being there this week.

1206
00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:15,680
Speaker 9: It didn't seem like that was going to be on

1207
00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:16,040
Speaker 9: the table.

1208
00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:17,360
Speaker 1: Now.

1209
00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:21,120
Speaker 9: I know sometimes, like you know, when Bill Walsh retired,

1210
00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:23,800
Speaker 9: he kept it quiet from this players, and you saw

1211
00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:25,680
Speaker 9: him cry in the locker room, and they obviously knew

1212
00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:28,680
Speaker 9: he was going to retire after the eighty Super Bowl. See,

1213
00:59:28,800 --> 00:59:31,920
Speaker 9: you never know, like Brandon Graham now went back on

1214
00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:33,280
Speaker 9: his word, like he had announced it.

1215
00:59:33,240 --> 00:59:34,240
Speaker 1: Before the season started.

1216
00:59:34,840 --> 00:59:37,360
Speaker 9: It's pretty resolute, and the mid season he stipped really

1217
00:59:37,400 --> 00:59:40,560
Speaker 9: before he got hurt. He started having second thoughts because

1218
00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:43,120
Speaker 9: it's kind of like, let's say tomorrow, let's say he

1219
00:59:43,600 --> 00:59:46,840
Speaker 9: doesn't retear it because he did have procedure by the way.

1220
00:59:46,960 --> 00:59:49,920
Speaker 9: Let's say he's he plays well, it feels good, and

1221
00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:51,560
Speaker 9: let's say they lose by a field goal.

1222
00:59:51,600 --> 00:59:52,360
Speaker 1: He might want to come back.

1223
00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:55,320
Speaker 9: Now, he did win the he did win eight years ago,

1224
00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:58,040
Speaker 9: he did win his first ring in his first Super Bowl.

1225
00:59:58,480 --> 01:00:00,560
Speaker 1: So you kind of have to watch this situation for

1226
01:00:00,600 --> 01:00:01,040
Speaker 1: what it is.

1227
01:00:01,960 --> 01:00:04,200
Speaker 9: But you always give the player at a latitude to

1228
01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:09,040
Speaker 9: change his mind here. But the other question would be,

1229
01:00:10,320 --> 01:00:12,320
Speaker 9: is there anything we don't know about any other players

1230
01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:14,640
Speaker 9: who are older, you know, because there's some players maybe

1231
01:00:14,640 --> 01:00:17,000
Speaker 9: you're not we're not talking about, or like we know

1232
01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:20,960
Speaker 9: Jason Kelsey was going to retire last year. He actually

1233
01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:23,000
Speaker 9: told his teammates before the scenes started, and he kind

1234
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:25,240
Speaker 9: of kept it quiet, though a lot of us kind

1235
01:00:25,240 --> 01:00:27,280
Speaker 9: of knew from our people we speak with that he

1236
01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:29,960
Speaker 9: was he was going to stick with that, So you

1237
01:00:30,040 --> 01:00:32,360
Speaker 9: never know. But it's a little bit of extra drama

1238
01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:32,880
Speaker 9: to the game.

1239
01:00:33,400 --> 01:00:36,320
Speaker 2: All right, Well, Spagnola gets a lot of hype, and

1240
01:00:36,360 --> 01:00:39,360
Speaker 2: it's deserved. The guy is delivering Super Bowl wins as

1241
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:41,680
Speaker 2: a defensive coordinator. And then on the other side you

1242
01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:45,680
Speaker 2: got Vic Fangio, who is oh to eight against Patrick

1243
01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:48,400
Speaker 2: Mahomes actually to nine if you count, and being a

1244
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:51,520
Speaker 2: consultant two years ago for the Eagles defense. They're going

1245
01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:53,000
Speaker 2: to throw that onto the pile.

1246
01:00:53,160 --> 01:00:54,920
Speaker 1: Although they say he wasn't really working on the defense

1247
01:00:54,960 --> 01:00:55,400
Speaker 1: but going.

1248
01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:58,840
Speaker 2: Right, but I mean he was he was over all right.

1249
01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:02,040
Speaker 2: The bottom line, he's win us against Patrick Mahomes. Give

1250
01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:04,480
Speaker 2: us a little insight because you know, Vic Fangio. You

1251
01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:06,560
Speaker 2: followed his game. He's sure been a part of this

1252
01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:10,160
Speaker 2: league for a number of years, certainly a highly respected coordinator.

1253
01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:15,320
Speaker 2: Is he going to show us a wrinkle in this game?

1254
01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:18,320
Speaker 2: I mean it's not like he doesn't know the personneality.

1255
01:01:18,560 --> 01:01:21,080
Speaker 2: I mean he knows him backwards and forwards. He has

1256
01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:25,400
Speaker 2: seen thousands and thousands of hours of film trying to

1257
01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:29,280
Speaker 2: figure out what can I do, what will he do?

1258
01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:34,280
Speaker 2: What should we expect as a maybe an unforeseen wrinkle

1259
01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:35,440
Speaker 2: in this Eagles defense?

1260
01:01:35,440 --> 01:01:37,640
Speaker 9: All right, So, ironically, Steve in the same stadium in

1261
01:01:37,680 --> 01:01:40,440
Speaker 9: Week three in New Orleans where the Eagles surprised the Saints.

1262
01:01:40,440 --> 01:01:43,000
Speaker 9: This when the Saints first two weeks were not only

1263
01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:45,400
Speaker 9: league in the NFL scoring, they were setting team records,

1264
01:01:46,400 --> 01:01:48,360
Speaker 9: league record for the first two weeks of offense, and

1265
01:01:48,400 --> 01:01:49,560
Speaker 9: then they shut them down.

1266
01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:50,200
Speaker 1: In Week three.

1267
01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:53,640
Speaker 9: They brought out a front, an unscotted look that the

1268
01:01:53,640 --> 01:01:55,600
Speaker 9: Saints had never seen. So what they did is they

1269
01:01:55,640 --> 01:01:59,440
Speaker 9: took Zach Boughd, ironically, a former Saint who was an

1270
01:01:59,440 --> 01:02:01,680
Speaker 9: intrust for the Saints and now moved inside back or

1271
01:02:01,680 --> 01:02:04,120
Speaker 9: with Eagles. They actually brought him down and created a

1272
01:02:04,120 --> 01:02:08,640
Speaker 9: five man front and make all the cutback runs for

1273
01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:10,640
Speaker 9: Camara were crushed that he just couldn't cut back so

1274
01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:13,040
Speaker 9: that he completely stopped them. So on your point, Steve,

1275
01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:16,560
Speaker 9: he'll they're not going to spy him. I don't see

1276
01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:18,120
Speaker 9: that happening because he's not a runner. He's more of

1277
01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:21,320
Speaker 9: a scrambler. But the issue, the one issue with fanch

1278
01:02:21,440 --> 01:02:23,200
Speaker 9: I know the defense has been phenomenal. They're the number

1279
01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:26,000
Speaker 9: one defense statistically in the National Football League and we

1280
01:02:26,040 --> 01:02:28,640
Speaker 9: saw this with zach Ertz last week, a former Eagle.

1281
01:02:29,720 --> 01:02:32,360
Speaker 9: They have what we would call I ben don't break.

1282
01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:35,200
Speaker 9: You're talking to coaches who have gone up against Fangio.

1283
01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:39,000
Speaker 9: He'll give you everything underneath like he didn't care about that.

1284
01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:41,280
Speaker 9: You will not throw it over his head. They've g gon

1285
01:02:41,320 --> 01:02:43,439
Speaker 9: up the least amount of exposive pass plays the National

1286
01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:44,040
Speaker 9: Football League.

1287
01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:45,959
Speaker 1: They don't give up anything deep.

1288
01:02:46,040 --> 01:02:49,960
Speaker 9: So Travis Kelcey, if you're people who look at the

1289
01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:52,560
Speaker 9: prop bets, right, that's a guy he saw. I mentioned

1290
01:02:52,640 --> 01:02:55,600
Speaker 9: zach Ertz who had ten catches last week. Travis kelcher

1291
01:02:55,600 --> 01:02:59,480
Speaker 9: should do very well against his defense, and so what

1292
01:02:59,520 --> 01:02:59,920
Speaker 9: could he do?

1293
01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:00,200
Speaker 1: Now?

1294
01:03:00,200 --> 01:03:02,800
Speaker 9: The other thing you can do here is the one

1295
01:03:02,800 --> 01:03:04,800
Speaker 9: thing that they have to do is you have to get.

1296
01:03:04,640 --> 01:03:05,840
Speaker 1: Physical with those receivers.

1297
01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:09,520
Speaker 9: They've got two guys goold run Hollywood Brown and Xavier Worthy.

1298
01:03:09,520 --> 01:03:11,520
Speaker 1: He's been a big surprise. He's a well ahead of schedule,

1299
01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:13,200
Speaker 1: so what could he do.

1300
01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:15,760
Speaker 9: They don't play a lot of man coverage, okay, but

1301
01:03:15,960 --> 01:03:17,880
Speaker 9: they don't press a lot. What you got to do

1302
01:03:17,960 --> 01:03:21,800
Speaker 9: here is surprise everybody and you suppress coverage that you

1303
01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:24,280
Speaker 9: could play zone and keep your corners up a little bit.

1304
01:03:24,680 --> 01:03:28,400
Speaker 9: Just if you disrupt their timing. That's going to have

1305
01:03:28,560 --> 01:03:31,160
Speaker 9: Mahomes haul on the ball. And by the way, one

1306
01:03:31,200 --> 01:03:33,560
Speaker 9: note you should understand when you guys watch this tomorrow,

1307
01:03:34,120 --> 01:03:35,960
Speaker 9: let's not forget the left side of the chief has

1308
01:03:35,960 --> 01:03:38,480
Speaker 9: been changed. Joe Toney, the left guard is one of

1309
01:03:38,480 --> 01:03:40,200
Speaker 9: the top three in the league at that position. He's

1310
01:03:40,360 --> 01:03:42,760
Speaker 9: still going to play left tackle, and they're going with

1311
01:03:42,760 --> 01:03:44,880
Speaker 9: Mike and not Frank Kellando at left guard.

1312
01:03:44,920 --> 01:03:45,840
Speaker 1: He's not very good.

1313
01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:48,760
Speaker 9: That is a matchup where I think the Eagles could

1314
01:03:48,760 --> 01:03:50,760
Speaker 9: dominate and that would be a problem for Mahomes.

1315
01:03:51,720 --> 01:03:54,560
Speaker 4: I have a question not regarding this Super Bowl Adam,

1316
01:03:54,560 --> 01:03:59,120
Speaker 4: the NFL going to Ireland, going to Australia, Like, how

1317
01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:02,120
Speaker 4: many games are they going to take away from the fans.

1318
01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:04,760
Speaker 9: Well, that's MANSI that's a great question because I know

1319
01:04:04,800 --> 01:04:06,720
Speaker 9: Eagle fans were up in arms because that Green Bay

1320
01:04:06,720 --> 01:04:08,200
Speaker 9: game week won in Brazil was a home game for

1321
01:04:08,240 --> 01:04:11,800
Speaker 9: the Eagle. Yeah, there's nothing these fans can do about it,

1322
01:04:12,040 --> 01:04:14,960
Speaker 9: Like they're not going to sue. I mean they if

1323
01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:16,640
Speaker 9: they want, they can get a class action. They're going

1324
01:04:16,680 --> 01:04:19,760
Speaker 9: to lose it. It's just it's the NFL, the team's prerogative.

1325
01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:23,840
Speaker 9: And remember territorial rights, which it's really fascinating like that.

1326
01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:26,800
Speaker 9: Most fans don't know that that each team, Eagles had

1327
01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:30,000
Speaker 9: territorial rights in Brazil, so that means they promote there,

1328
01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:33,360
Speaker 9: they've got exclusivity from other teams promoting there. It's kind

1329
01:04:33,360 --> 01:04:35,840
Speaker 9: of weird, by the way, but that happens, and we're

1330
01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:38,840
Speaker 9: going to continue to see this. The NFL loves playing abroad,

1331
01:04:38,880 --> 01:04:42,280
Speaker 9: they love playing overseas. And I probably said this years

1332
01:04:42,280 --> 01:04:45,520
Speaker 9: ago on FSR, But when I worked for ESPN, a

1333
01:04:45,560 --> 01:04:47,640
Speaker 9: small scoop that I had as one so on to

1334
01:04:47,680 --> 01:04:49,400
Speaker 9: work in the league office told me in our lifetime,

1335
01:04:49,760 --> 01:04:51,520
Speaker 9: he goes, I'm not going to tell you what year

1336
01:04:51,560 --> 01:04:53,600
Speaker 9: or what decade we're going to have a team overseas.

1337
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:55,520
Speaker 9: So I said to this guy, I like, are you

1338
01:04:55,520 --> 01:04:56,920
Speaker 9: got to your mind? There's no way you can do that.

1339
01:04:56,960 --> 01:04:59,160
Speaker 9: He goes, oh, I know, logisticalate it's hard. But he

1340
01:04:59,240 --> 01:05:00,840
Speaker 9: started to giving me some re since why and how

1341
01:05:00,880 --> 01:05:04,200
Speaker 9: they can do it because remember we played NFL Europe.

1342
01:05:04,200 --> 01:05:05,760
Speaker 1: We had it over there. I'm like, yeah, but that

1343
01:05:05,840 --> 01:05:06,880
Speaker 1: was minor league football.

1344
01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:10,840
Speaker 9: But they are guys so long and they love playing

1345
01:05:11,120 --> 01:05:12,360
Speaker 9: outside the States.

1346
01:05:12,400 --> 01:05:12,840
Speaker 1: They just do.

1347
01:05:13,160 --> 01:05:16,720
Speaker 4: Can teams veto like, do they have a say? Because

1348
01:05:16,720 --> 01:05:20,320
Speaker 4: I feel like going to Australia is such You're you're

1349
01:05:20,360 --> 01:05:24,640
Speaker 4: gonna lose three days just traveling. Can teams be like, no,

1350
01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:25,760
Speaker 4: We're not gonna do that.

1351
01:05:25,800 --> 01:05:28,480
Speaker 1: It's it's actual, no manci. They actually pitch it to them.

1352
01:05:28,600 --> 01:05:33,320
Speaker 9: Okay, those I believe are pitched and they like like

1353
01:05:33,400 --> 01:05:33,959
Speaker 9: Eagles wanted.

1354
01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:35,080
Speaker 1: The Eagles have made it clear.

1355
01:05:35,120 --> 01:05:37,040
Speaker 9: For instance, they want they want to play anywhere like

1356
01:05:37,080 --> 01:05:39,120
Speaker 9: they They don't want to do it every year, but

1357
01:05:39,160 --> 01:05:41,000
Speaker 9: they want to do it. Certain teams want to do it.

1358
01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:45,360
Speaker 9: Obviously the Jaguars because of Shatkhan the soccer team, and

1359
01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:48,400
Speaker 9: they've made this agreement they're good for a year, several

1360
01:05:48,440 --> 01:05:51,040
Speaker 9: years that they're going to be playing overseas, you know,

1361
01:05:51,040 --> 01:05:53,840
Speaker 9: in England most likely. But yeah, this is going to

1362
01:05:53,920 --> 01:05:54,640
Speaker 9: continue to happen.

1363
01:05:54,680 --> 01:05:54,919
Speaker 1: Guys.

1364
01:05:55,240 --> 01:05:58,440
Speaker 9: I know coaches don't like it because they you just

1365
01:05:58,520 --> 01:06:01,120
Speaker 9: mentioned it. MONSI the time difference. You know what's interesting.

1366
01:06:01,280 --> 01:06:02,440
Speaker 9: I don't know we were gonna go here, but I'm

1367
01:06:02,440 --> 01:06:05,440
Speaker 9: gonna throw another one for you in here. It is

1368
01:06:05,440 --> 01:06:07,760
Speaker 9: interesting because some teams don't want to have the buy

1369
01:06:08,000 --> 01:06:10,280
Speaker 9: right after they come back. Isn't it fascinating? They think

1370
01:06:10,320 --> 01:06:12,720
Speaker 9: it's I don't know why though, I'm not sure, but

1371
01:06:12,760 --> 01:06:14,680
Speaker 9: I'm not talking to some clubs that they like to

1372
01:06:14,720 --> 01:06:17,080
Speaker 9: keep the sameness. They they like to just play the

1373
01:06:17,120 --> 01:06:18,400
Speaker 9: next week. It's just kind of weird.

1374
01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:21,120
Speaker 2: All right, final question for you, and I'm not gonna

1375
01:06:21,120 --> 01:06:23,600
Speaker 2: get into who's gonna win, because we'll see who wins.

1376
01:06:23,680 --> 01:06:25,880
Speaker 2: But I'm gonna I'm gonna give you four names. Gonna

1377
01:06:25,880 --> 01:06:29,600
Speaker 2: eliminate four names from the Super Bowl MVP conversation. Yeah

1378
01:06:29,720 --> 01:06:33,120
Speaker 2: so no Jalen Hurts, no Patrick Mahomes, no Travis Kelce,

1379
01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:36,120
Speaker 2: no sa Kuon Barkley. I got one, all right, That's

1380
01:06:36,120 --> 01:06:38,320
Speaker 2: what I'm asking you. So I'm taking those four guys

1381
01:06:38,360 --> 01:06:41,120
Speaker 2: out of the mix. Give me a Super Bowl MVP

1382
01:06:41,720 --> 01:06:43,960
Speaker 2: aj Brown. He did great two years ago. They're not

1383
01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:46,520
Speaker 2: that good at corner of the Chiefs anymore. That would

1384
01:06:46,560 --> 01:06:50,120
Speaker 2: be my egos went out for the Chiefs. This is

1385
01:06:50,120 --> 01:06:52,080
Speaker 2: gonna this is gonna be a stunner. I wonder what

1386
01:06:52,120 --> 01:06:54,480
Speaker 2: the prop battles on this one. I'm sure it won't

1387
01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:55,600
Speaker 2: happen because he's a kicker.

1388
01:06:55,640 --> 01:06:58,640
Speaker 9: But Harrison, Harrison Bucker is way better than Jake La

1389
01:06:58,720 --> 01:07:00,760
Speaker 9: Jakellie used to be the NFL's best coat. He struggled

1390
01:07:00,800 --> 01:07:04,440
Speaker 9: mightily this season. The Chiefs don't score a lot of points.

1391
01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:07,040
Speaker 9: He might have four or five field goals tomorrow. Never

1392
01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:07,880
Speaker 9: had a kicker win.

1393
01:07:08,040 --> 01:07:11,840
Speaker 2: We had a special teams player obviously I know, never

1394
01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:14,280
Speaker 2: been there. So there you go, all right, Well, uh,

1395
01:07:14,760 --> 01:07:17,640
Speaker 2: enjoy the game. We just want a good game. That's

1396
01:07:17,640 --> 01:07:19,360
Speaker 2: all we want to know. We'll have a good game.

1397
01:07:19,360 --> 01:07:21,320
Speaker 2: And I think, by the way, yes.

1398
01:07:21,200 --> 01:07:23,080
Speaker 9: Real quick, you're not gonna believe this one. I had

1399
01:07:23,160 --> 01:07:25,480
Speaker 9: five NFL players tell me this week in New Orleans,

1400
01:07:26,200 --> 01:07:28,360
Speaker 9: five in particular, blowout Eagles will blow out the same

1401
01:07:28,440 --> 01:07:31,480
Speaker 9: the Chiefs. I said, guys, that's not happening. There's just

1402
01:07:31,520 --> 01:07:33,400
Speaker 9: no way to I see it being a three point game.

1403
01:07:33,480 --> 01:07:34,040
Speaker 9: I don't see that.

1404
01:07:34,720 --> 01:07:37,960
Speaker 2: Well, actually, I'm one of those yes, when you say

1405
01:07:38,040 --> 01:07:40,480
Speaker 2: blow out, I I think it's going to be I

1406
01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:41,800
Speaker 2: think a double digit victory.

1407
01:07:42,080 --> 01:07:44,000
Speaker 1: Well you were right last week with Eagles blowing out

1408
01:07:44,040 --> 01:07:45,560
Speaker 1: the the that idea. I'm not.

1409
01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:48,080
Speaker 2: It's not going to be anywhere near that. But yeah,

1410
01:07:48,080 --> 01:07:52,000
Speaker 2: I'm picking points ten point ten point win for the advice.

1411
01:07:52,640 --> 01:07:54,720
Speaker 2: That's you know, I'm with you. There's a reason why

1412
01:07:54,800 --> 01:07:55,800
Speaker 2: no teams won three straights.

1413
01:07:55,960 --> 01:07:58,360
Speaker 9: Hey, you know what, Manzi, Steve's good at letting us

1414
01:07:58,400 --> 01:07:59,360
Speaker 9: know which ones he gets right.

1415
01:07:59,400 --> 01:08:03,040
Speaker 2: So yes, oh yeah, no, no heed him.

1416
01:08:03,520 --> 01:08:05,640
Speaker 4: He's only mentioned that he was right about ELI seven

1417
01:08:05,640 --> 01:08:06,560
Speaker 4: times and we've been here.

1418
01:08:06,520 --> 01:08:07,800
Speaker 3: Ninety minutes.

1419
01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:11,840
Speaker 2: Because that wasn't a prediction, that was actual information I had.

1420
01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:13,040
Speaker 2: So everybody.

1421
01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:14,640
Speaker 8: Enjoy the game.

1422
01:08:14,680 --> 01:08:16,320
Speaker 2: Thanks so much, of course, we'll talk to you next

1423
01:08:16,360 --> 01:08:19,160
Speaker 2: week in the aftermath. Thanks Adam, Thanks guys, Adam Kaplan,

1424
01:08:19,200 --> 01:08:23,519
Speaker 2: there are Fox Sports Radio, NFL Insider. Now let's find

1425
01:08:23,560 --> 01:08:27,479
Speaker 2: out what is a trending? All right, Martin the.

1426
01:08:27,560 --> 01:08:31,240
Speaker 8: Dust finally settle on half of the trade that shook

1427
01:08:31,280 --> 01:08:35,639
Speaker 8: the NBA world. Unfortunately, construction is still going on in Dallas.

1428
01:08:35,760 --> 01:08:38,799
Speaker 8: Anthony Davis played thirty one minutes and that tortured metaphor

1429
01:08:38,960 --> 01:08:41,000
Speaker 8: doing a lot of work. He had thirty one minutes

1430
01:08:41,280 --> 01:08:44,360
Speaker 8: of action today and the Dallas win over Houston won

1431
01:08:44,520 --> 01:08:48,280
Speaker 8: sixteen to one oh five. However, he did leave the

1432
01:08:48,320 --> 01:08:51,160
Speaker 8: game with a non contact injury, Jason Kidd saying he's

1433
01:08:51,200 --> 01:08:54,679
Speaker 8: not expecting Anthony Davis to miss an extended amount of time,

1434
01:08:54,960 --> 01:08:57,600
Speaker 8: but still waiting to hear back with the medicals on

1435
01:08:57,680 --> 01:09:00,479
Speaker 8: that situation. He left the game in the third quarter.

1436
01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:02,719
Speaker 2: My thought was, look, he's been out for a while,

1437
01:09:02,840 --> 01:09:05,160
Speaker 2: obviously within an injury. I think it was anxious. I

1438
01:09:05,200 --> 01:09:08,080
Speaker 2: think he did a lot twenty six points, sixteen rebound,

1439
01:09:08,120 --> 01:09:09,280
Speaker 2: seven assists, three blocks.

1440
01:09:09,560 --> 01:09:12,320
Speaker 8: I think he over overserted himself a little bittle bit

1441
01:09:12,600 --> 01:09:15,960
Speaker 8: there was because I mean there was a week that

1442
01:09:16,080 --> 01:09:18,439
Speaker 8: was really nasty, exactly for the Anthony Davis.

1443
01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:21,400
Speaker 2: You just want to remind the world there were two players,

1444
01:09:21,520 --> 01:09:23,879
Speaker 2: all NBA players involved in this trade, not one.

1445
01:09:23,680 --> 01:09:25,679
Speaker 8: Because that's what you forget, right. This is the first

1446
01:09:25,720 --> 01:09:29,160
Speaker 8: time there was two all NBA players, and Davis one

1447
01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:31,960
Speaker 8: of those two. Next, Christie also had a good game today,

1448
01:09:32,000 --> 01:09:32,880
Speaker 8: but not one of the two.

1449
01:09:33,439 --> 01:09:33,919
Speaker 2: Exactly.

1450
01:09:34,080 --> 01:09:38,880
Speaker 8: Yeah, he but tough scene so we'll see. Hopefully he

1451
01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:42,479
Speaker 8: recovers quickly. Luka, Doncis will recover enough to play Tuesday

1452
01:09:43,800 --> 01:09:46,719
Speaker 8: on the tent. That's the TES Tuesday, Monday, Monday, Monday.

1453
01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:47,920
Speaker 8: How did calendars work?

1454
01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:48,200
Speaker 6: Uh?

1455
01:09:50,200 --> 01:09:52,320
Speaker 8: Seventeen. The Lakers beat the Pacers today. A lot of

1456
01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:55,200
Speaker 8: people thought, including ESPN, as Monte alluded to earlier, that

1457
01:09:55,280 --> 01:09:58,080
Speaker 8: this was going to be the debut, which is why

1458
01:09:58,120 --> 01:09:59,880
Speaker 8: we had to watch the number one team the nation

1459
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:03,720
Speaker 8: and the Auburn Tigers lose on ESPN two today to

1460
01:10:03,840 --> 01:10:06,760
Speaker 8: the six foot Florida Gators. So that that's, you know,

1461
01:10:06,920 --> 01:10:09,559
Speaker 8: just until you have that end of the first quarter

1462
01:10:09,800 --> 01:10:12,599
Speaker 8: for Victor wembin Yama and the Spurs against the Orlando

1463
01:10:12,640 --> 01:10:15,479
Speaker 8: Magic thirty two to thirty, the Magic in the lead.

1464
01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:19,360
Speaker 8: The Wizards lead the Hawks thirty to twenty six right

1465
01:10:19,400 --> 01:10:21,280
Speaker 8: now at the end of the first quarter as well.

1466
01:10:21,439 --> 01:10:25,479
Speaker 8: Often reeves forty five points today, Yeah, forty five, thirteen

1467
01:10:25,520 --> 01:10:27,360
Speaker 8: for thirteen from the free throw line. He's like, you

1468
01:10:27,400 --> 01:10:29,880
Speaker 8: know what, don't worry, guys, I got this. Uh well,

1469
01:10:29,880 --> 01:10:30,760
Speaker 8: how do you think it's gonna work.

1470
01:10:30,760 --> 01:10:33,680
Speaker 2: It's kind of amazing they've been able to maneuver all this,

1471
01:10:34,080 --> 01:10:37,720
Speaker 2: these deals and not and still keep Reeves and RUI Hatchemura.

1472
01:10:37,800 --> 01:10:40,280
Speaker 2: I mean, everything just seems to work out for the life.

1473
01:10:40,280 --> 01:10:42,519
Speaker 8: I would say it was amazing, but I saw the

1474
01:10:42,600 --> 01:10:45,559
Speaker 8: reporting from Dallas, so it's less like is it amazing

1475
01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:47,280
Speaker 8: or is it just like really.

1476
01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:48,200
Speaker 2: Bad by Dallas?

1477
01:10:48,280 --> 01:10:52,040
Speaker 8: Yeah, right, it really bad by Dallas. Uh. That's really

1478
01:10:52,080 --> 01:10:54,439
Speaker 8: all that's going on right now. A couple college basketball games.

1479
01:10:54,479 --> 01:10:57,080
Speaker 8: Cincinnati's up sixty six to fifty five on BYU. But

1480
01:10:57,760 --> 01:10:59,400
Speaker 8: you know what they want to hear about the Super Bowl?

1485
01:11:12,479 --> 01:11:15,000
Speaker 2: are gonna do. We're gonna break a little early right

1486
01:11:15,040 --> 01:11:18,439
Speaker 2: now because on the other side, we're gonna get to

1487
01:11:18,479 --> 01:11:24,479
Speaker 2: our game day Geniuses, Super Bowl Edition. This is Fox

1488
01:11:24,720 --> 01:11:34,000
Speaker 2: Football Saturday, Steve Harby, Moncey Bolognas, Fox Football Saturday. We

1489
01:11:34,200 --> 01:11:39,360
Speaker 2: are live from the Tirak dot Com studios. Okay, it

1490
01:11:39,439 --> 01:11:43,679
Speaker 2: is that time, all right, So it's safe to say

1491
01:11:44,080 --> 01:11:52,360
Speaker 2: that it's over Montcy win one. Oh what is it

1492
01:11:52,400 --> 01:11:54,760
Speaker 2: a six point difference. What is it right now? It

1493
01:11:54,960 --> 01:11:58,960
Speaker 2: is a six point difference. And to quote Kendrick Steve,

1494
01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:01,040
Speaker 2: you may want turn your TV off.

1495
01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:04,080
Speaker 1: U now.

1496
01:12:04,160 --> 01:12:06,880
Speaker 2: Forty to thirty four is what it is right now

1497
01:12:06,920 --> 01:12:09,679
Speaker 2: pre Super Bowl. No matter how many times I changed,

1498
01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:12,080
Speaker 2: try to change the rules and did change the rules

1499
01:12:12,080 --> 01:12:15,679
Speaker 2: in an effort to try to get points on points

1500
01:12:15,680 --> 01:12:18,719
Speaker 2: that just kept backfiring on me time and time again.

1501
01:12:18,880 --> 01:12:24,640
Speaker 2: So I'm conceding you, champion, well as you join a

1502
01:12:24,640 --> 01:12:28,280
Speaker 2: long list of co host over the years that have

1503
01:12:28,400 --> 01:12:30,599
Speaker 2: beaten me head to head and making picks.

1504
01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:33,680
Speaker 3: No, you definitely were clear. Thank you.

1505
01:12:34,120 --> 01:12:37,559
Speaker 2: However, However, that being said, when do you think about it?

1506
01:12:39,800 --> 01:12:42,639
Speaker 2: What game matters most when it's all said and done,

1507
01:12:42,920 --> 01:12:46,759
Speaker 2: What single game matters most in the NFL season?

1508
01:12:46,800 --> 01:12:48,800
Speaker 3: The one that's happening in twenty.

1509
01:12:48,439 --> 01:12:51,360
Speaker 2: Three hours, That is correct, super Bowl?

1510
01:12:51,400 --> 01:12:51,920
Speaker 3: Super Bowl?

1511
01:12:52,240 --> 01:12:56,280
Speaker 2: All right? So, by the way, since there's really nothing

1512
01:12:56,360 --> 01:13:02,000
Speaker 2: at stake, we need scores, yes, so just winners, we

1513
01:13:02,200 --> 01:13:03,040
Speaker 2: need an action.

1514
01:13:04,640 --> 01:13:05,160
Speaker 3: Sounds good.

1515
01:13:05,200 --> 01:13:08,200
Speaker 2: And by the way, whoever's closest on the final score

1516
01:13:08,240 --> 01:13:14,360
Speaker 2: gets seven points forget that? All right? So would you

1517
01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:16,160
Speaker 2: would you like to go first? Mancie?

1518
01:13:16,320 --> 01:13:19,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll go first. Why not. Uh, you know, since

1519
01:13:19,800 --> 01:13:21,120
Speaker 3: the start of the season, I.

1520
01:13:21,200 --> 01:13:24,920
Speaker 4: Pick the Chiefs to win and three pete and I'm

1521
01:13:24,960 --> 01:13:28,559
Speaker 4: gonna stick with that. I know the Chiefs have not

1522
01:13:28,760 --> 01:13:32,920
Speaker 4: looked dominant like maybe the Lions looked all season, but

1523
01:13:33,040 --> 01:13:36,360
Speaker 4: it doesn't matter. The Chiefs don't have anything to prove.

1524
01:13:36,439 --> 01:13:40,360
Speaker 4: They are a well oiled machine. They know what they're doing,

1525
01:13:40,479 --> 01:13:44,040
Speaker 4: and they have stars all over the field, defensive side

1526
01:13:44,040 --> 01:13:46,960
Speaker 4: of the ball, offensive side of the ball, on the sidelines,

1527
01:13:47,160 --> 01:13:50,400
Speaker 4: with their coaching staff. They have stars all over the field.

1528
01:13:50,439 --> 01:13:52,760
Speaker 4: And I it's not that I think Patrick Mahomes will

1529
01:13:52,800 --> 01:13:55,679
Speaker 4: be the reason the Chiefs win. I actually think they're

1530
01:13:55,720 --> 01:13:58,680
Speaker 4: just going to be that. The Eagles are gonna get

1531
01:13:58,680 --> 01:14:01,720
Speaker 4: out coached by Steve Speck and Andy Reid. That is

1532
01:14:01,760 --> 01:14:03,880
Speaker 4: what I think is going to happen. And I think

1533
01:14:03,920 --> 01:14:10,000
Speaker 4: the Chiefs beat the Eagles in a close game twenty

1534
01:14:10,040 --> 01:14:11,200
Speaker 4: seven to twenty four.

1535
01:14:11,800 --> 01:14:16,559
Speaker 2: Twenty seven twenty four Chiefs, Chiefs, and they will would

1536
01:14:16,600 --> 01:14:21,120
Speaker 2: make it eighteen consecutive one score victories for them exactly.

1537
01:14:21,120 --> 01:14:22,200
Speaker 3: They will keep that going.

1538
01:14:22,640 --> 01:14:25,200
Speaker 4: Travis Kelce will maybe proposed to Taylor.

1539
01:14:24,880 --> 01:14:28,880
Speaker 2: Swift, well, it's an interesting score. It's wrong, you know,

1540
01:14:29,000 --> 01:14:33,519
Speaker 2: because take it from mister. By the way, I've finished

1541
01:14:33,520 --> 01:14:38,960
Speaker 2: second place out of two Yeah, okay, so I still

1542
01:14:38,960 --> 01:14:41,880
Speaker 2: got the silver packs. All right, here's how I see

1543
01:14:41,880 --> 01:14:45,040
Speaker 2: this game. I also picked the Chiefs to make the

1544
01:14:45,080 --> 01:14:50,160
Speaker 2: Super Bowl to lose the Super Bowl to the Dallas Cowboys. Yeah. No,

1545
01:14:50,240 --> 01:14:51,000
Speaker 2: that was a great pick.

1546
01:14:51,400 --> 01:14:52,320
Speaker 8: But I have the.

1547
01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:58,479
Speaker 2: Chiefs in the Super Bowl losing, so I'm sticking with

1548
01:14:58,560 --> 01:15:02,599
Speaker 2: that prediction, okay. And I say that this final score

1549
01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:05,840
Speaker 2: is going to surprise people. It's not going to be

1550
01:15:05,920 --> 01:15:10,800
Speaker 2: a blowout blowout, but it's not going to be overtime.

1551
01:15:11,880 --> 01:15:13,200
Speaker 2: Final score of this game.

1552
01:15:13,560 --> 01:15:13,920
Speaker 5: Uh huh.

1553
01:15:14,160 --> 01:15:22,920
Speaker 2: Eagles thirty four, Chiefs twenty four. Well, how about them Cowboys.

1554
01:15:23,640 --> 01:15:26,719
Speaker 2: So again I believe, and I've said this stat before.

1555
01:15:26,880 --> 01:15:31,040
Speaker 2: If Saquon Barkley, who's had fourteen hundred yard games this

1556
01:15:31,160 --> 01:15:34,240
Speaker 2: season including the playoffs, all three playoff games, by the way,

1557
01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:38,080
Speaker 2: and they won thirteen of those fourteen games, and the Chiefs,

1558
01:15:38,120 --> 01:15:40,160
Speaker 2: on the other hand, have not given up one hundred

1559
01:15:40,200 --> 01:15:44,160
Speaker 2: yards to a running back the entire season, it's going

1560
01:15:44,240 --> 01:15:48,639
Speaker 2: to change. Think about this. When the decision was made

1561
01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:51,599
Speaker 2: to set out Saquon Barklay in that last regular season

1562
01:15:51,640 --> 01:15:53,479
Speaker 2: game when he had a real chance to break the

1563
01:15:53,600 --> 01:15:58,040
Speaker 2: NFL record. The irony is now he is thirty yards

1564
01:15:58,080 --> 01:16:02,439
Speaker 2: away from the NFL record for most yards combining regular

1565
01:16:02,520 --> 01:16:05,639
Speaker 2: season and the playoffs. You can almost make an argument

1566
01:16:05,720 --> 01:16:09,120
Speaker 2: that's even a bigger record by the way, hell by

1567
01:16:09,160 --> 01:16:14,400
Speaker 2: the great Terrell Davis. So I think he goes off

1568
01:16:14,439 --> 01:16:18,479
Speaker 2: in this game. I know Smagnola's got four rings as

1569
01:16:18,479 --> 01:16:21,519
Speaker 2: a defensive coordinator, but I think the Eagles are going

1570
01:16:21,560 --> 01:16:24,760
Speaker 2: to run. I think when this is all said and done,

1571
01:16:24,960 --> 01:16:27,280
Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley is going to be a Super Bowl MVP,

1572
01:16:28,240 --> 01:16:31,120
Speaker 2: and it's going to be the Year of Barkley. He

1573
01:16:31,439 --> 01:16:36,799
Speaker 2: is the guy who is destined to be the ultimate

1574
01:16:37,000 --> 01:16:40,639
Speaker 2: face of the twenty twenty four NFL season.

1575
01:16:40,920 --> 01:16:44,000
Speaker 4: You know, everything you say makes sense, like I get it.

1576
01:16:44,280 --> 01:16:47,160
Speaker 4: But at the same time, how do the Chiefs not

1577
01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:51,040
Speaker 4: know that they are going to put everything on Saquon?

1578
01:16:51,080 --> 01:16:53,280
Speaker 4: They already know that, So they're going to go in

1579
01:16:53,320 --> 01:16:55,840
Speaker 4: with them and Telly, we gotta stop Saquon and we're

1580
01:16:55,840 --> 01:16:59,320
Speaker 4: gonna have to make Jalen run or throw or do something.

1581
01:16:59,400 --> 01:17:03,560
Speaker 2: Well, you heard earlier, obviously, Adam Kaplan talked about aj Brown.

1582
01:17:03,360 --> 01:17:05,840
Speaker 3: Being the MVP after you iliminate got.

1583
01:17:05,760 --> 01:17:09,280
Speaker 2: Devonte Smith or tight end has been dynamite right right,

1584
01:17:09,680 --> 01:17:13,960
Speaker 2: So they they have weapons they do if they try

1585
01:17:13,960 --> 01:17:16,120
Speaker 2: to go all in on stopping bark I just don't

1586
01:17:16,120 --> 01:17:19,400
Speaker 2: think they're going to do that. I think the Chiefs

1587
01:17:19,439 --> 01:17:22,360
Speaker 2: realize that going all in on stopping Barkley is not

1588
01:17:22,960 --> 01:17:25,479
Speaker 2: a winning formula for them. He's going to go off.

1589
01:17:25,520 --> 01:17:28,639
Speaker 2: He's going to have a huge, huge game.

1590
01:17:28,720 --> 01:17:31,400
Speaker 4: I also see him going off and the Chiefs still winning.

1591
01:17:31,479 --> 01:17:32,840
Speaker 8: Well, it's not gonna happen that way.

1592
01:17:34,439 --> 01:17:37,759
Speaker 2: It is not going to happen, I know. So where

1593
01:17:37,800 --> 01:17:40,240
Speaker 2: are you watching the game after we get done with U?

1594
01:17:40,320 --> 01:17:43,040
Speaker 2: By the way, if you don't know, tomorrow, yes, we

1595
01:17:43,160 --> 01:17:46,439
Speaker 2: will have the essentially pregame show here on Fox Sports

Speaker 4: and you're on till three with Rich.

Speaker 3: I'll, you know, maybe a little out a little before that.

1604
01:18:11,880 --> 01:18:14,519
Speaker 2: I don't know if I feel like socializing really to

1605
01:18:14,560 --> 01:18:16,240
Speaker 2: be honest with yourself.

1606
01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:19,679
Speaker 4: No, no, no, be at home and eat some veggie wings

1607

Speaker 4: Go somewhere and not to someone's house, but I just

1611
01:18:31,240 --> 01:18:35,240
Speaker 4: I don't know if I feel like so. Obviously, there's

1612
01:18:35,280 --> 01:18:39,639
Speaker 4: always tequila involved. Whether the Chiefs or the Eagles win,

1613
01:18:39,880 --> 01:18:43,200
Speaker 4: I'm gonna celebrate with tequila no matter what, because I said,

1614
01:18:43,400 --> 01:18:45,679
Speaker 4: if the Chiefs win, great, they are they three pete

1615
01:18:45,680 --> 01:18:46,240
Speaker 4: I called it.

1616
01:18:46,360 --> 01:18:48,519
Speaker 3: If the Eagles win, great, I'm happy for.

1617
01:18:48,520 --> 01:18:51,479
Speaker 4: Jalen Herts and for Saquon Barkley and everybody you know.
