1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:07,560
Speaker 1: Omaha, omaha. It's our number four, Hour number four, ready

2
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:10,360
Speaker 1: to go. And here in hour number four we talk

3
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:14,080
Speaker 1: about that early primetime game Bucks and Lions. How much

4
00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:19,439
Speaker 1: damage does that stink bomb performance do for Bucks quarterback

5
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:23,919
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield's MVP campaign. Also, quarterback Jared Goff knows the

6
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 1: Lions should have blown that game open, implying that they

7
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 1: could have played much better. Your thoughts on that? And

8
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:34,280
Speaker 1: should the NFL get rid of these code current NFL

9
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: Monday night games, these Monday night games where they stack

10
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:39,919
Speaker 1: them and they bleed into each other. We'll talk about that.

11
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 1: Here it is our number four. Have a wonderful Tuesday.

12
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:48,720

35
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 1: it and we saved the Monday night. A game, not

36
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: the big game, not the big game, the a game

37
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:40,959
Speaker 1: for the a block of our number fall that's right,

38
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: our under fun preview of coming attractions there, so our

39
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 1: number four and a big game big I guess relatively speaking,

40
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: a big game. The way they've been doing this, there's

41
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 1: normally one good match up and then one eh eh.

42
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 1: This is the last of the doubleheaders. More on that

43
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: in a minute. Not double headers because they're co current,

44
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 1: concurrent games on Monday Night football. But our lead is

45
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: from Motown. We did not see the Commodores out on

46
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 1: the field, but did see double barrel action in the NFL.

47
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: And the featured game was in me Chagan where Baker

48
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: Mayfield leading the Buccaneer bandwagon chure into Detroit. There a

49
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:29,359
Speaker 1: little wrestling match with Jared Goff and the MotorCity kiddies.

50
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: Were you watching this game, We're watching the baseball game.

51
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 1: This started about an hour before the baseball game. You

52
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 1: had the Fox refugees, Joe Buck and Troy Aikman. They

53
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: had the call and you know this was the bigger

54
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: game because they sent dan Orlofsky to the game in Seattle,

55
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: which went to the Seahawks, and they sent Aikman to

56
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 1: this game, so you know this game was more important.

57
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: Otherwise they would have said Aikman to Seattle, but they

58
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 1: didn't do that. So if you didn't see it and

59
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 1: you missed the game. Jamiir Gibbs rumbling and stumbling and

60
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: bumbling a pair of touchdowns. He had a career high

61
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: two hundred and eighteen yards from scrimmage. Now, I didn't

62
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 1: play in the NFL off to check with Ryan Clark,

63
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: but I think that's a good performance. He led the

64
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 1: Lions to a twenty four to nine victory, which also

65
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 1: I'm told is good over the Buccaneers on Monday Night,

66
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 1: the Lions five and two, and they boomerang back after

67
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 1: losing into Cansa City, And so there you go, flawlessly. Well,

68
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 1: they weren't flawless. There were some mistakes in the first half,

69
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 1: but they have been very good for the last three years.

70
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 1: They have the NFL's longest active streak fifty one games

71
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 1: without dropping two straight in the regular season. Now, if

72
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 1: you took someone and put them in they take them

73
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: from the year I don't know, two thousand and seven,

74
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: two thousand and eight, two thousand and nine, or any

75
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 1: point before that, and you put them into a trance

76
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 1: like state, say in the year two thousand, thousand and seven,

77
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 1: and you then woke them up from their coma in

78
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 1: the year twenty twenty five, and you said the Lions

79
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: have now gone nearly three years without losing back to

80
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 1: back game, they would have said, this is a dream.

81
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,160
Speaker 1: This is not real. This is a dream. They don't

82
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,359
Speaker 1: do that. The Lions lose two or three games every

83
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,040
Speaker 1: stretch of time anyway, so the lines are five and two.

84
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: They bounce back from the loss. And the better story, though,

85
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:29,480
Speaker 1: is in the losing locker room the Buccaneers, the feel

86
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 1: good story to begin the NFL season, the scrappy Buccaneers

87
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 1: and they end up doing what, well, nothing really of

88
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 1: note offensively, just a stink bag performance. And before we

89
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,720
Speaker 1: get into Baker Mayfield's play on the field, Baker had

90
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 1: some issues with the Zebras. Apparently he's not a fan

91
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: of the Zebras, so he was not happy with a

92
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 1: couple of things that went the way of the Lions.

93
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 1: He felt like there was a bit of injustice, if

94
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: you will, against the Buckets. What Rather than me get

95
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 1: into it, here's Baker Mayfield explaining his issues with the Buccaneers.

96
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 1: Take a list.

97
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 2: I'm still pretty damn confused about the double review. A

98
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 2: lot of things in that game that a little questionable,

99
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 2: but a lot of frustration at the end of that

100
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 2: and it might be displaced on the John Hussey in

101
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 2: the moment, but I work my ass off when I

102
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 2: put a lot into this game. So when things that

103
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 2: I don't seem are deemed fair, I'm going to let

104
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 2: somebody know. And that's good, bad, and different.

105
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: Okay. We recorded that on a mister microphone from nineteen

106
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,479
Speaker 1: eighty two and it sounds really good. So let us discuss.

107
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield is the jumping off point. He did not

108
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: play well in this game. So how much damage? Here's

109
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: the question, how much damage? As we discussed, does this

110
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 1: game do for the NVP campaign of Bucks quarterback Baker Mayfield.

111
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: So on this one, I've got magic carpet ride, I've

112
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 1: got thing and mom and Pop diner, and we will

113
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: combine all of these things together and we are going

114
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: to make the Gobba gool. We're gonna make the Gobba goool,

115
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: all right? So number wa, I said, number that's right?

116
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 1: All right? This was a body blow, body blow, body

117
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: blow to the Baker Mayfield MVP hype train. The train

118
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 1: is slowing down right now. Now. If you want to

119
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 1: be the man, you have to get it done in primetime, right, MVP,

120
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 1: If you want to be the MVP of the NFL,

121
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 1: you cannot go to Motown and play a sour note.

122
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 1: You can't do it. Can't lay a big fat creamsicle egg,

123
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: which is essentially what Baker Mayfield did here nine stinking points.

124
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 1: You're not going to win the MVP with this type

125
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 1: of more if you can dominate Atlanta at one o'clock

126
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:58,559
Speaker 1: on Sunday or Carolina at one o'clock on Sunday. Okay, fine,

127
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: but we saw and I'm a Baker Mayfield. I'm now

128
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 1: on the Baker bandwagon. Jue Churee, I'm on the bad wagon.

129
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 1: I might have to jump off though. What we saw

130
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 1: was a magic carpet ride for the first part of

131
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: the NFL season, and the carpet inside the dome at

132
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 1: Ford Field actually ripped mid air. That's not good. It's

133
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 1: kind of like when the propellers on a helicopter stopped spinning.

134
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: There's only one way to go. Uh yeah, there's no

135
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 1: soft landing. So Baker has been living under the narrative

136
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 1: he's the ultimate underdog. He's in bra he was the

137
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:40,679
Speaker 1: number one overall pick, right, top pick. How are you

138
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 1: in the under Jared Goff the same thing. These guys

139
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 1: were both the top pick and the draft. They're like, oh,

140
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 1: the underdog. Okay, really, I thought, if you're the top pick,

141
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 1: you're not the underdog. And he has that chip on

142
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 1: his shoulder and it works for him. And the cute

143
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 1: little story that he's getting it done there and I

144
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: didn't nobody thought he could do it. And he played

145
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,680
Speaker 1: it two different colleges before it was cool to play

146
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: at two different colleges and all that. And he went

147
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: out there and the Lions just bit his kneecaps off

148
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: and it was a flushit kind of performance. Now, when

149
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: I say flushit kind of performance, get out the charman, Grandma,

150
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: I gotta flush it down the pipes. That kind of performance.

151
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 1: Twenty eight to fifty passing, which is not great, just

152
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 1: two hundred twenty eight yards. He was very similar to

153
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 1: c J. Stroud, which is not a compliment.

154
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 3: C J.

155
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,559
Speaker 1: Stroud sucks at his job. Baker Mayfield on this night

156
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 1: sucked at his job. Four point six yards per attempt.

157
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:33,079
Speaker 1: He had one touchdown, one interception. There wasn't fumble, and

158
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 1: I know he recovered it. He recovered it. Fumbles are

159
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 1: fifty to fifty balls. They're fifty to fifty balls. Listen.

160
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 1: It was not very MVP like. That's the point of

161
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: this diatribe. That's the point of this rant. You're not

162
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 1: on a glamour team, much to the dismay of my

163
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: friend TJ. Reeves, who's the sideline reporter for the Tampa Buccaneers,

164
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: you are not a glamour team. You're not in Dallas, Okay.

165
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 1: You're not in Kansas City with Taylor Swift and her

166
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,680
Speaker 1: fifty fan based supporting Travis Kelsey. You're in Tampa. And

167
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: when you're in Tampa, in order to win an MVP,

168
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 1: you have to dominate these island games live the Island life.

169
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: Didn't do it, didn't. You have to be head and

170
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 1: shoulders above everyone else. And Baker didn't just fall short

171
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 1: of that bar in this game. He dug a hole

172
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 1: and buried the bar. He had a ceremonial of a bearing,

173
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 1: you know how, like the Dodgers dug up the pitching

174
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 1: mound to honor the death of Clayton Kershaw's career as

175
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: a Dodger. Well the in the the opposite here, Baker

176
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 1: Mayfield dug a hole and buried the bar, the MVP bar.

177
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,320
Speaker 1: Now Mayfield's campaign this is it feels like more of

178
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 1: a speed bump. It's more than that. It's like a

179
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,200
Speaker 1: It's like a thud. That's the sound I heard. I heard.

180
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 1: It was a thud that I heard. Now the voter

181
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 1: saw it. I saw it. I was flipping back and

182
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,199
Speaker 1: forth out the MVP train. Now it's not I don't

183
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 1: want to be too dramatic. I have a show to

184
00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:01,319
Speaker 1: do tonight. It is not derailed, like, it's not completely

185
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 1: off the tracks the MVP campaign. Let's just say that

186
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,959
Speaker 1: it's belching some smoke right now. It's farting a little bit.

187
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,319
Speaker 1: That's what trains do. They fart smoke. And the conductors

188
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,559
Speaker 1: got that little worried look on his face, like I

189
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 1: don't know what to do if he's supposed to do,

190
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 1: I don't know what to do. What am I gonna do?

191
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 1: I have no idea what to do all right now?

192
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 1: Following that game, and we mentioned the bucks and that's

193
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,959
Speaker 1: the better story. But in the winning locker room, the Lions,

194
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 1: they win the game. But here's the question. Quarterback Jared

195
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 1: Golf I'm still haunted by his time with the Rams.

196
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 1: Jared Goff knows. He said postgame that the Lions quote

197
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 1: should have blown that game open close quote, implying rather

198
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 1: obviously that they did not play that well, could have

199
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: played better. Should have won by more, could have, would have,

200
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 1: should have. So your thoughts on Jared Goff saying the

201
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: Lions should have blown that game open? All right? So

202
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,079
Speaker 1: my thought, my first thought is like spot the dog,

203
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: this is spot on. Absolutely, he's right, He's dead right.

204
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: I agree with Jared Goff on this alliance and listen

205
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 1: on the TV or the YouTube show now Benny versus Benny.

206
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 1: I did take I'm not gonna lie. I took it.

207
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,199
Speaker 1: I went one and one on the night I had Tampa.

208
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 1: I like the scrappy quarterback. I like the team that's

209
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 1: trying to overachieve and all that. So I was on

210
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 1: the wrong side of this game and watching the game

211
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 1: in real time, I did think there's no chance. The

212
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: butcher can have no chance, and yet they had a

213
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,560
Speaker 1: legitimate opportunity in the second half because of the generosity

214
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: of the Lions. The Lions should have wrapped this thing up.

215
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,079
Speaker 1: They should have had it gift wrapped and done and

216
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,960
Speaker 1: that's it. See you later. They could have put the

217
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 1: creamsicles on ice. They did not do that. Detroit was

218
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,960
Speaker 1: up fourteen to three at halftime in this game. It

219
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 1: should have been twenty eight to nothing. And I'm not exaggerating.

220
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 1: It should have been twenty eight to nothing at halftime.

221
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:03,079
Speaker 1: This wasn't even close on the statue, and the Lions

222
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 1: kept FFing up. The Lions at halftime had two hundred

223
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 1: seventy five yards of offense. The Buccaneers had fifty eight

224
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: at the break. That's so bad. How bad is it?

225
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,839
Speaker 1: That's like a Raider Chiefs game. How lopsided this was

226
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 1: at halftime. But yet it was only an eleven point game.

227
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 1: And Tampa they had no pulse on offense, they had

228
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 1: no rhythm, they had no nothing, and yet mathematically they

229
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 1: were still in the game. And that's the part that

230
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,960
Speaker 1: should worry you if you are a member of the

231
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 1: Marching and Chid of Society of the Detroit Lions, like

232
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 1: you're supposed to be a heavyweight contender for the Championship

233
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 1: of Theuero and you're supposed to be the team that

234
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: steps on people's throats. Didn't see it? You left the

235
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 1: door open, you did. They led a team with Baker Mayfield,

236
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 1: who I like wasn't playing well, and a bunch of

237
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 1: guys that were together. They had Elmer's glue and they

238
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 1: had Scotch tape, and they just kind of threw it

239
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 1: all together and they had duct tape and Detroit was

240
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 1: out there fiddling around. Despite having all of these yards

241
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,199
Speaker 1: and all that stuff, they let a team end up

242
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 1: sneaking her back into the game. And it's not like

243
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: they don't have the firepower with Aman Rossy and Brown,

244
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 1: Jamir Gibbs went absolutely bonkers with the two hundred plus yards.

245
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 1: They got a host of playmakers. You know it. I

246
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: know it. Every man, woman and child that pays attention

247
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: to the football knows it. And yet still it was

248
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 1: anyone's game, any one's game. A lot of yards that

249
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: were like empty yards because they were between the twenties,

250
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 1: so there was a lot of that where they were

251
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 1: intriculating the ball down the field and then once they

252
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: got to about the thirty yard line, right around that area,

253
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 1: there were some issues. And so that's where we are.

254
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 1: And so with Dan Campbell, he's got the vibe man,

255
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 1: good vibes. It's just a it's messy and you look

256
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 1: around and the Lions are clunky. It's not clean. And

257
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: that's part of a larger trend that we've noticed around

258
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 1: the NFL. Like the Chiefs, you say, well, they're playing

259
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 1: really good. Now they played the Raiders. I mean, they

260
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,960
Speaker 1: did beat the Lions, but the Chiefs didn't look very

261
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 1: good early in the year. And now we're in the

262
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 1: middle part of the year, the middle class of the

263
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 1: NFL season, they're doing better. The Bills, eh, lost of

264
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 1: the Falcons. You lost to the loss of the Patriots

265
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 1: at home, So that's mat The Eagles have warts, they're

266
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 1: signing guys out of the retirement home. Even Kathy and

267
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 1: Madison's like, what are you doing? And now the Lions

268
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,960
Speaker 1: are in the same bucket. I have them in that

269
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 1: same bucket. Talented, but it's complicated, it's messy. It's messy.

270
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 1: So again, the vibes are but the thing of a jig.

271
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 1: See that's the thing of a jig, the engine, whatever

272
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 1: you want to call it. It's not fully humming at

273
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: this point, so it's kind of coughing. It's coughing down

274
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 1: the interstate. So this is this is where you either

275
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 1: sharpen things up around this point because a couple of

276
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 1: weeks from now will be down on the stretch we come.

277
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 1: So it's heading into week eight of the NFL season,

278
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 1: so there's no midway point. Midway point would be week

279
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 1: eight and a half. Once we get down to week eleven,

280
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: week twelve, that's when it gets really really good. And

281
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 1: so you're either going to sharpen the sword or you're

282
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 1: gonna get exposed either one. And so we'll find out

283
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 1: our final point to the broadcast world. We go the

284
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 1: broadcast world. Now we may have seen the very last,

285
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 1: the end of the road for the concurrent Monday night

286
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 1: football doubleheaders on a BC and that small cable channel

287
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: out of Bristol, Connecticut. The reason I bring that up

288
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 1: the head honcho of NFL Media. How much do you

289
00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 1: think that guy gets paid? The person that runs NFL

290
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:06,639
Speaker 1: media recently acknowledged that the experiment of airing concurrent Monday

291
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 1: night football games has quote not delivered yet. What does

292
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 1: that mean, Well, let's address it. Let's get into it,

293
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 1: the question should the NFL dump the concurrent Monday night

294
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 1: football game? All right? So what this means is they're

295
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 1: not getting the large audience they thought they were going

296
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 1: to get. They assumed the position that they were going

297
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 1: to get a large audience out here's the deal. To

298
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,919
Speaker 1: answer the question, though, the formal question of should the

299
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: NFL dump the concurrent NFL Monday Night games? Yeah, is

300
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 1: the sun up during the day. Is the stars in

301
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:49,679
Speaker 1: the sky at night? You said, Well, the stars are

302
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:51,120
Speaker 1: in the sky during the day too, we just don't

303
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,040
Speaker 1: see him. But the point is, you see him at night,

304
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 1: assuming it's not overcast and gloomy and cloudy and all that.

305
00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: You see him Monday night football see And this is like,

306
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 1: I guess it's an old guy take. I think it's

307
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 1: the right take, and normally I want more, I don't

308
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: want less. But when I grew up, it was a

309
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 1: spec like I'm so old. We didn't have Sunday night football.

310
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,479
Speaker 1: We did not have Thursday night football. It was like

311
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 1: a special thing. Monday night football was a big deal.

312
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 1: And I obviously the Island game and all that stuff,

313
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:21,920
Speaker 1: but it was a night where the entire football world

314
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: locked in, like you planned the whole thing, you watched it.

315
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 1: It was a communal experience, much like these games are.

316
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 1: But it's just not the same and it can't be

317
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 1: fully communal when you have two games that are overlapping

318
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 1: in the second half of the A game and then

319
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:40,680
Speaker 1: the first half of the B game, so you end

320
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:45,400
Speaker 1: up not watching parts of both games. It just it

321
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,920
Speaker 1: And so I look at it this way. Right, it's

322
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:52,119
Speaker 1: a Frankenstein experiment. The NFL, and as actually talking to

323
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 1: the great Steve de Seger, who's been sleeping for five

324
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:57,439
Speaker 1: five hours, even though you hear his voice all night.

325
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 1: But I saw him earlier when I was coming in here,

326
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 1: and we were talking talking about how the NFL now

327
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 1: they're so desperate to get even more money that they

328
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:09,160
Speaker 1: have to cannibalize the games and they have to chop

329
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 1: them up, and they need as many they call them

330
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 1: windows TV windows to sell. They're already preparing for the

331
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:19,359
Speaker 1: next TV contract. They're like, Okay, we're gonna play every Christmas.

332
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,360
Speaker 1: That's a standalone package. We can sell that to Netflix

333
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:26,400
Speaker 1: or whoever. We've got the Sunday, the Thursday, the Monday,

334
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,959
Speaker 1: but if we can have an extra window on Monday,

335
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 1: we can do that. Do I hear anyone for a Tuesday?

336
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 1: Can we get a Tuesday? Well, that's usually the day

337
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 1: off for the players. We can make more money. We'll

338
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: have them play on Tuesday. How about Tuesday. We can't

339
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,400
Speaker 1: play on Friday because the people get upset this high

340
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 1: school football Friday. But maybe part of the year we

341
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:42,880
Speaker 1: could we can sell a mini package. We could sell

342
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:45,640
Speaker 1: that on Friday. So they're trying to chop it up,

343
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 1: and it's cannibalizing the NFL schedule to make as much money.

344
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 1: We'll have every team play an international game. We'll sell

345
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 1: that to the BBC, we'll sell that to the different

346
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 1: national cable channels in the different parts of the country

347
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,400
Speaker 1: or world for that matter. And we're on our way,

348
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 1: all right. And so you've got two games at once.

349
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:06,119
Speaker 1: It's all overlapping. It's split windows, it's split attention. I

350
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:10,359
Speaker 1: don't like it. It's to me, it's it's brutal. And

351
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,360
Speaker 1: this has proven also based on the early results. They've

352
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 1: been doing this for a couple of years, it has

353
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,960
Speaker 1: been proven that it's not working. It's too much. It's

354
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: not what people want. You spend all day. Most people

355
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 1: work the day shift. You work the day shift. You

356
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 1: want com home, You want to watch one game. You

357
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,479
Speaker 1: don't want to have to watch two games, and then

358
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 1: you end up betting parlays and you start putting multiple

359
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 1: bets and it's just a hot mess. It's just a

360
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 1: hot mess. And the other problem, this is the biggest issue.

361
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,800
Speaker 1: You got one game that's got the juice, and then

362
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 1: you've got the other game that is usually forgettable, and

363
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:46,080
Speaker 1: so it's kind of like these concurrent NFL games. It's

364
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 1: like going into a mom and pop diner and they say, listen,

365
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 1: I love you. I'm gonna give you two meals. Their

366
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 1: their lukewarm. So I don't really want a lukewarm meal.

367
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 1: I just want one hot meal. No, no, we've got two.

368
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 1: We'll give you two, and but no I want one.

369
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: Uh and so maybe there's one good one. And some

370
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,639
Speaker 1: ways there's just two mediocre games. They're just is I

371
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,480
Speaker 1: just want one, as the kids say, one banger. That's

372
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,680
Speaker 1: all I want, and give me the main course. I

373
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 1: don't need this buffet stop. You know, back in my

374
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 1: younger days, I used to love buffets. Not now. So

375
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:26,720
Speaker 1: the NFL's problem is simple. They have an issue with

376
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:28,399
Speaker 1: trying to make more money. They have to chop the

377
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 1: games up and they have to cannibalize the games and

378
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: the schedule and all that stuff. And they also don't

379
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,679
Speaker 1: trust their own schedule. So like if you knew you

380
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 1: could put a good product out every Monday, remember Thursday

381
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 1: night football sucked for years and everyone complained so much

382
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 1: that they put the kebash on that because they started

383
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 1: putting better games, on Thursday night. They also, this is

384
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: what I've heard from people around the NFL. They have

385
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,680
Speaker 1: made it a point of emphasis for the players to

386
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 1: stop bitching about playing on Thursday night. For years it

387
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 1: was woe is me, Oh my god, what are they?

388
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 1: You're treating us like farm animals making us play on

389
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 1: Thursday night. You don't hear that hardly at all anymore

390
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:12,919
Speaker 1: because the NFL's requested the players zip it when it

391
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,640
Speaker 1: comes to that kind of stuff. So anyway, so listen

392
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 1: in the NFL's talking about getting rid of it. If

393
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,359
Speaker 1: they can sell it, they'll keep it. That's always what

394
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 1: this is about. If you can sell it, if you

395
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:24,919
Speaker 1: have inventory, someone's willing to pay you a lot of

396
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 1: money for it, you'll do it. End of story. But

397
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,120
Speaker 1: I think less is more in this case. I learned

398
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,119
Speaker 1: that also from iHeart University. Less is more And just

399
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 1: bring back the single Monday night showcase, make it mean

400
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 1: something again, something special, and that's it. It is the

401
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,280

Speaker 1: appears he played his final game on Monday night. We're

457
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 1: talking about Mike Evans of the Buccaneers. There are reports

458
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,920
Speaker 1: out in the overnight that that's it. He was carted

459
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 1: off the field. The team said it was a concussion

460
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,680
Speaker 1: and a shoulder injury. That was the initial report, but

461
00:25:56,760 --> 00:26:00,119
Speaker 1: there are some reports out overnight that it appears the

462
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 1: injury is feared to be a season ending injury, which

463
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,480
Speaker 1: will mean the Buccaneers obviously we have to play with

464
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 1: a bunch of secondary wide receivers, but also Jerry Rice somewhere.

465
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 1: I'm sure he will not celebrate this at all, but

466
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 1: Mike Evans has had one thousand plus yards in all

467
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: eleven seasons. That is tied with Jerry Rice for the

468
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:26,960
Speaker 1: longest streak in NFL history, and it appears they will

469
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:31,200
Speaker 1: remain tied as Mike Evans is down for the count.

470
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,400
Speaker 1: And if you're of a certain age and you grew

471
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 1: up a fan of baseball in the nineteen eighties, there

472
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 1: were two players that were more popular than anybody. And

473
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 1: it depends where you lived, obviously, but Wade Bogs with

474
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:50,119
Speaker 1: the Red Sox was very popular. And Don Maddingly and

475
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:55,360
Speaker 1: Donnie Baseball. Because Toronto reaches the World Series. Don Maddingly

476
00:26:55,560 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 1: finally has broken through a forty two year, forty two

477
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:07,439
Speaker 1: year World Series drought because he's coaching for the Toronto

478
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 1: Blue Jays and the Blue Jays are into the World

479
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:11,639
Speaker 1: Series for the first time in thirty one years. But

480
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 1: Don Mattingly, Donnie Baseball, who was like mister Yankee in

481
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 1: his career and all that and uh never all even

482
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 1: had great players in that era with the Yankees, legends

483
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 1: like Dave Winfield and Ricky Henderson and Mel Hall, but

484
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 1: unfortunately didn't win anything. And he played in baseball from

485
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 1: eighty two to ninety five and has been a coach

486
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 1: or a manager since twenty oh three. And I was

487
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 1: around him a lot when he was with the Dodgers

488
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 1: and fun dude. He's in sixties now, Don Mattingly mid

489
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 1: sixties and so Donnie Baseball wins the Pennant gets to

490
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 1: the World Series for the first time and goes against

491
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 1: the Dodgers, must be very upset. He managed the Dodgers

492
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 1: before they became the Dodgers of modern times, like Don

493
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 1: matting managers, and they had good teams, but they didn't

494
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 1: quite have the razzle dazzle, the over the top payroll

495
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 1: they have. Now, all right, we have some music we love.

496
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 1: Listener music. Oh my god, Listener music is so good.

497
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 1: So Halloween, it's the Halloween season. And one of the

498
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,119
Speaker 1: great talented people. And he's been so good. If you

499
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,920
Speaker 1: listen to the Fifth Hour podcast, you know that Ohio

500
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 1: aw is a big part of that. He sends us

501
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:24,880
Speaker 1: stuff and we play it every week for the mail

502
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:26,200
Speaker 1: Bag and some other bits that we do in the

503
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 1: Fifth Hour podcast. So he's been great and he sends

504
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 1: songs in and he's part of the Mallard Plusa. Now

505
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,919
Speaker 1: I've noticed a lot of you guys now only submit

506
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 1: songs to win an award at the maled Blues. We

507
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 1: used to have Rask with the band and Jay Scoop

508
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,520
Speaker 1: and Just Josh would randomly send songs. But I hope

509
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,240
Speaker 1: Jay Scoops okay. Haven't heard from Jay Scoo in a while,

510
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:48,280
Speaker 1: hopefully he's okay. But we'd have you guys submit songs

511
00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 1: and stuff just randomly, and we loved it. You didn't

512
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 1: have to wait to win an award. And so I've

513
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 1: stopped promoting this stuff. But Ohio al randomly decided to

514
00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 1: send a tune in and it's a Halloween theme song

515
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 1: with the Malord branding. So let's play it. We played

516
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 1: it earlier, there's some technical difficulty, so let's play it again.

517
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 1: The Great Ohio strike up the band, Here we go.

642
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:10,160
Speaker 1: don't think he wants to be known as Gabe the babe,

643
00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 1: but Babe Ruth. It worked for Babe Ruth, the Bambino

646
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 6: These people that call h one time and want to

00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 1: the game? He might never call again. There might be

651
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:31,919
Speaker 1: that one and done and if he loses a chain,

652
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:33,839
Speaker 1: it'll be out of discribs. Remember the guy in Rhode
