Danny 36 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 2: g means so much that he does extra effort to 37 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 2: put together a hell of a best of every day. 38 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 2: He could stream that wherever you get your pods. But 39 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 2: last night you're watching some baseball. 40 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: Look at the Blue Jays. 41 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 2: And your pudgy little pal Kirk hitting bombs. This Blue 42 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 2: Jays team looks like they're in fuego, and I'm like, 43 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 2: wait a minute. 44 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:17,359 Speaker 1: In Seattle, the road teams are now five. 45 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 2: And zero in the ALCS and NLCS, and you got 46 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 2: to ask yourself, like what does that even mean? Like 47 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 2: how is it you can't say that it's home team's 48 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 2: pressing that much or could you No, I think that's 49 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 2: exactly what it is really to that level, it's a 50 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 2: home field disadvantage. That's the only thing I can come 51 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,519 Speaker 2: up with, because I would see it when the Yankees 52 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 2: were in the postseason, Remember that, Yeah, I do. I 53 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 2: felt like they were gripping the bat a little tighter. 54 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:46,920 Speaker 2: I know the fans are there cheering them on, but 55 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 2: that just adds to the pressure. And I know they're professionals, 56 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 2: but they're also really young men trying to do their best. 57 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 2: And when you're trying too hard, sometimes that's when you're 58 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 2: not playing at your best. 59 00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. 60 00:02:58,000 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 2: I hit up my buddy Elias from the Sports Beer, 61 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 2: but I think he's on vacation in a sinote in 62 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 2: Mexico somewhere. 63 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 1: I mean, what else could it be. 64 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,959 Speaker 2: But I do wonder if in baseball history, how far 65 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,239 Speaker 2: have we gone into this level, this tier of the 66 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 2: playoffs where the home team is winless. Meaning I can 67 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 2: only imagine if the Brewers win at Dodger Stadium tonight, 68 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 2: And I mean, I know there's two games today, but 69 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 2: even then, if it was if six and oh seven 70 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 2: and zer possibly today, if the road teams keep winning, 71 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 2: there's got to be something about that that's never been done. Yeah, 72 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 2: it seems like a switch went off all of a sudden. 73 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 2: The Blue Jays bats are alive again. Vladi Gurero remembered 74 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 2: how to hit, and Yeah, I really do think it's 75 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 2: just a matter of that extra pressure on the biggest 76 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 2: scale possible, on the highest level possible. 77 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: It's like that kid who. 78 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 2: Does really well and then when his parents show up 79 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 2: at the little league game, that's when he strikes out 80 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 2: because he knows they're watching. 81 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: And it's that little added pressure that you try to 82 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: ignore but is always there. 83 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 2: Now, just to be real here and keep it real, 84 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 2: I'm looking at it this year's baseball standings. I just 85 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 2: think expectations are so high and fans nowadays, you know, 86 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 2: especially in New York. I keep going back to my 87 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 2: Yankees because I wish they were in the postseason. If 88 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 2: you're not producing and if you're not winning, you're losing 89 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 2: and you're getting booed. And I think these teams so 90 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 2: desperately want to win for their cities, especially teams like 91 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 2: the Brewers, teams like the Mariners, that the pressure starts 92 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 2: to add up because it means so much to the 93 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 2: fans they've never won before. 94 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: They're excited to be there. 95 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 2: You know, they're gripping that bat tight, and it's definitely 96 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 2: subconsciously affecting them to a disadvantage. It's not home field advantage, 97 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 2: it's home field disadvantage. At least it's been so far. 98 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 2: All right, thirty teams in baseball now, we love to 99 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 2: talk macros and micros. 100 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: Spout our video guys. 101 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 2: Spot loves to talk about his macros when he eats 102 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 2: and the gym that'll put you to sleep. 103 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: I will, will you need your pro teams and your 104 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 1: Cobra hundreds. 105 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 2: I'm talking about the macro look at the season versus 106 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 2: the micro look. 107 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: We're talking about five or seven game series. 108 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 2: It's hard to really say that that is played in 109 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 2: the same way as you look at one hundred and 110 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,840 Speaker 2: sixty two game season. No, but would you believe different 111 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 2: of thirty teams, three teams had a better road record. 112 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 2: And it goes exactly with what you're saying. Let me explain, 113 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 2: all the teams that perform better on the road have 114 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 2: no fans. The A's, the Marlins, and the Washington Nationals. 115 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 2: These are bottom feeders, meaning there's no pressure from the 116 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 2: home crowd because they stink. So when you look at 117 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 2: the A's who don't even have a home, really the Marlins, 118 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 2: who you go to a Marlins game if they're playing 119 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 2: the Mets or Phillies or a division rival, the Braves, 120 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 2: that more than half that stadium is opposing fans, can 121 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 2: I give you phinalogy? And the National stink this year 122 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 2: as well. So I think over the long season, home 123 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 2: field advantage is a thing. Probably also just you're sleeping 124 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 2: in your own bed and your home and you're comfy 125 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 2: and cozy. But the reality is it's funny that the 126 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 2: these moments, the teams that did better on the road 127 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,359 Speaker 2: were all bad teams. I think it just reminds the 128 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 2: players of how big this moment is. Everyone's on their feet, 129 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 2: they have to come through. Everything matters. We're all under 130 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,359 Speaker 2: a microscope in this moment and in real life. I think, 131 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 2: let's say relationships. You ever been in a relationship when 132 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 2: things are easy, breezy, and you're just grooving. You know 133 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 2: everything's going good and the relationship's easy, You're not trying 134 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,160 Speaker 2: hard to please anybody. You ever try to save a relationship, 135 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 2: and then you start trying extra hard and everything goes wrong. 136 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 2: It seems like the more you try and the more 137 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 2: you push, the more you fall on your face. And 138 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 2: that's what happens in the batter's box. That's what happens 139 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 2: at these games. And that's the analogy of playing loose, right, 140 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 2: Playing loose is how you win, and if you're able 141 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,720 Speaker 2: to slow down those clutch moments, that's when you're able 142 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 2: to step up. It's the theory that Jazz Chishom tries 143 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 2: to explain. It didn't work for him obviously in the postseason, 144 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 2: but well, just as the secret to his success this 145 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 2: year was playing seventy percent. Because when you're trying to 146 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 2: play one hundred percent and you're really trying to give 147 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,239 Speaker 2: it your all, you're really tripping over your own feet 148 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 2: because you're trying too hard. So if you're playing loose 149 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 2: and you're playing at seventy percent and you're not feeling 150 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 2: that pressure and you got no worries, that's when you 151 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 2: really are at your best. I like to use the 152 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 2: term loosey goosey, loosey goosey no, but you ever been 153 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 2: there in a relationship rich where the harder you try, 154 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 2: let's say you're trying to win a girl's heart back, 155 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 2: and everything you do, the universe feels like it's working 156 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 2: against you. It's because you're trying too hard. It's unnatural 157 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 2: at that point. 158 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 3: In twenty twenty three, the road team won eleven times. 159 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 3: That was the Texas Rangers, setting a record. And then 160 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 3: in twenty nineteen the World Series, there the road team 161 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 3: won every game. 162 00:07:58,800 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: Remember I do remember that. 163 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 2: I remember that clearly, being like, wow, it is no 164 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 2: one could get the job done at home. 165 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: So I think in the micro we talk about. 166 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 2: This postseason not your favorite dirty jobs guy, not Micro 167 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 2: in the micro. 168 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 1: Shout out to Micro though he's a good dude. 169 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 2: I think we talked about sabermetrics and analytics that all 170 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 2: goes away in a short series. You can rely on 171 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 2: that over one hundred and sixty two game schedule to work, 172 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 2: but in a small sample you got to go with 173 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,239 Speaker 2: your gut, and I think over the long haul, sleeping 174 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 2: in your own bed, being around your family, playing in 175 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 2: front of the home crowd will obviously be an advantage. 176 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 2: But I think in a series where high stakes and 177 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 2: high pressure, maybe it's not as shocking that these teams 178 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 2: are falling flat at home. Let me ask you a 179 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 2: question of course, is a typical covinoon rich rich question. 180 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 2: When you were a single man, did you perform better 181 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:48,559 Speaker 2: at home or on the road? 182 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: If you know what I mean? 183 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 2: If the girl said come back to my place, or 184 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,559 Speaker 2: you said no, no, come over my place? 185 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 1: Where do you feel like you had your. 186 00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 3: You're talking about cooking right your kitchen? 187 00:08:59,160 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: Oh yea yeah? 188 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,959 Speaker 2: Where are you cooking in their kitchen? Because I could 189 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 2: always leave when I wanted to stop it? Where do 190 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 2: you think you've had yours for her? Where do you 191 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 2: think you've had your quote best performances at Homer on 192 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 2: the road, Like if you had a fun random fling 193 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 2: with a girl if you say, hey, come over my place, 194 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 2: would they be more pressure? 195 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 1: She's coming over my place? I gotta be. 196 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 2: I think it was more fun on the road unless 197 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 2: they had cats or something, all right, then they'd be 198 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 2: all on the way. 199 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: What's going on here? How many cats do you have? 200 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 1: This is weird? More than three? She's crazy? They ever 201 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 1: go to a place and there's like it's like a 202 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: big mess too, Like what kind of person? Are you 203 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: not sick? 204 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 2: So yeah, I think I was on the road performer myself, rich, 205 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 2: So I think that's really what it is. 206 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: Except here's here's what's hard to believe. It's hard to 207 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 1: believe for us because you're like. 208 00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 2: They're professionals, so you assume that they're oblivious to this, 209 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 2: and baseball is also different. So much pressure, but especially 210 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 2: for the teams that never won. I really feel like 211 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 2: the Dodgers do have less pressure. 212 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:10,959 Speaker 1: They won. 213 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 2: They're the Dodgers, they have superstars. They know that if 214 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,840 Speaker 2: one superstar doesn't step up, someone in that lineup is 215 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 2: going to step up. 216 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: You're saying, like Blue Jays and Mariners. 217 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 2: Fans blue Jays the Mariners like, there's gotta do it. 218 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: The fan bases are so thirsty and the players know it. Yes, 219 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: you know. 220 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 2: I think Dan Byer's Seahawks when I think of the 221 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 2: last time maybe a home field advantage meant that much, 222 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 2: because home field advantage drewers Mariners. Listen, over our lifetime football, baseball, basketball, 223 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 2: there have been significant like yo, home home field for 224 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 2: that team means a lot. The last one that to 225 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 2: me was almost impossible was a time in the twenty 226 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 2: tens when if you went to Seattle twelfth man legion 227 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 2: of boom was that Dan bar Would you agree the 228 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,959 Speaker 2: last time a home field meant that much. 229 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, darn near close, because I can't think of another 230 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 4: one that that comes to mind. 231 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: Lambo in the nineties, maybe late nineties, early two thousands. 232 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean Packer fans are great, and there's there's many, 233 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 4: many of them, but an actual home field advantage of 234 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 4: affecting the game, I don't think lambeau Field is it. 235 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 4: But when you went to lumen Field, you went to 236 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 4: the Kingdome, even that those were the those were the 237 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 4: places heck in baseball going way back, So it wouldn't 238 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 4: even be close to the to the Seahawks. How loud 239 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 4: was it to play at the Homer Dome with the 240 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 4: Twins and those those Homer hankies and an indoor sort 241 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 4: of facility. 242 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 2: You could picture that, right, You could picture all the 243 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 2: head of the wave in the towels. 244 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 4: And honestly, like as of late, just to go back 245 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 4: to the Seahawks, their issue, who has been they haven't 246 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 4: actually been good at home? 247 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:51,839 Speaker 1: We've been. Yeah, So that's what I'm saying. 248 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 2: It feels like there's not one now, Like for a 249 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 2: minute you were like the Chiefs that arrowhead. 250 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: But if you look at the couple of years and 251 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: they're splits. 252 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 2: It's not like it's not like anyone's undefeated at home, 253 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 2: and like, yeah, good luck seeing them in January at home. 254 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 1: Like, and think how we set up these expectations. 255 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,839 Speaker 2: Buffalow just lost at home in a primetime game, and 256 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 2: you thought they had the the those white uniforms at 257 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 2: home on a like in the new unis no less 258 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 2: could so yeah, yeah, I added to it. But when 259 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 2: you think about the expectations, not only from the fans, 260 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 2: you know, those players have even greater expectations, Like they're supposed. 261 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: To win at home. 262 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 2: Instead of just playing the game and doing their best, 263 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 2: we gotta win, They're expected to win it's. 264 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:38,439 Speaker 1: A home game. 265 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 2: And I think all those things subconsciously mess with you 266 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 2: and you get the opposite result. 267 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 4: Remember that playoff game, that wild card game with the 268 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 4: Pirates and Reds, and the Pirates shook Johnny Quato so 269 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 4: much dropped the. 270 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: Ball in his mitten, like like imploded on the mat. 271 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 4: Yeah that was in Pittsburgh. That was you know, a 272 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 4: decade ago or so. That gains It's crazy you don't 273 00:12:58,600 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 4: see it as much anything that was. 274 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 2: Honestly, they'd be great reference because that was the last 275 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 2: time I remember seeing someone visibly shuck. And if you 276 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 2: don't know why we're talking about this, you just joined us. 277 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 2: The home teams are zero to five this postseason in 278 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 2: the MLB. 279 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: I don't know if. 280 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 2: That's a first, but it sounds good to me. I 281 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 2: don't remember that being the case. So again, younger people, 282 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 2: crazy atmospheres, desperation to win, expectations to win greater than ever. 283 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 2: I think you're seeing a lot of people pressing too hard, 284 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 2: and that's why we're here. I'm trying to find the 285 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 2: stat on a carino. Maybe Dan Bayer knows or Danny 286 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 2: j It's all subconscious too, though, rich I found that. 287 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 2: I found it. It's also on the smallest level of 288 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 2: the lookman theory. We call this the Liukmont theory. And 289 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 2: this goes back to grade school. Seriously, how many times 290 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 2: when you were a kid, you're in your driveway and 291 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 2: you're just hitting three point shots. You're hitting circus shots 292 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 2: off the roof, on the pavement, into the bucket, you're 293 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 2: in the zone, you're sitting all these ridiculous shots, and 294 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 2: then you're like mo, Ma, watch, watch, and you try 295 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 2: to make that same shot again. 296 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 1: Brick brick air brick air ball. 297 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 2: Wait wait, wait, wait wait, and then as soon as 298 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 2: she walks away, it's back to the bottom of the net. 299 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 2: And it's just the way life works sometimes. And these 300 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 2: are younger men with with you know, much greater rewards 301 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 2: at hand. 302 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: Here, it's just human nature. 303 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 3: Was it you Covino who said you don't like it 304 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 3: when your family was in studio? Somebody had family serious exam, Dude, I. 305 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 2: Don't like it, right, but I do feel their nervous 306 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 2: energy on me, Like my mom gets all nervous and 307 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 2: I could feel her being nervous for me, and I 308 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 2: don't want that. It's not that I don't want my 309 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 2: mom there, so I know she's nervous for me for 310 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 2: some weird reason. So it's like, you know, take your 311 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 2: nervous energy. 312 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: Out of here. 313 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 2: And that's all part of it. Man, there's high stakes here. 314 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 2: We analyze every little thing. Social media adds to this. 315 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 2: You know, they didn't have to deal with that years ago, 316 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 2: the social media pressure in the backlash. Don't think these players, 317 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 2: especially the young players, don't see it, and their friends 318 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 2: see it and they talk about it. They have to 319 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 2: go home with it. It's a whole different level of pressure. 320 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 2: It didn't really apply the same way years ago the 321 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 2: way it does right now. 322 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 1: I was, Sam, what's up, buddy? 323 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 2: I actually have exclusive audio of Covino trying to get 324 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 2: his mom's attention. 325 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 1: I made it. No, I'll do it again. 326 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 2: And then round was like and then you missed a 327 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 2: shot every time, that's what's happening. You're trying to perform 328 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 2: at your peak in front of these fans it and 329 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 2: it backfires. Not that Lebron James needs me to hang 330 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 2: from his wavos, but I'm going to for a second. 331 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 1: Sure. 332 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 2: What was so remarkable about Lebron and the Cavs beating 333 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 2: the Warriors the year they went seventy three and nine 334 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 2: best record in NBA regular season history was that I 335 00:15:59,200 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 2: had to look it up. 336 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know why. 337 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 2: It took me more than ten seconds to find it. 338 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 2: But that twenty fifteen to twenty sixteen Golden State Warriors 339 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,120 Speaker 2: team forty one home games. 340 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 1: What do you think their home record was? 341 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 5: I don't know. 342 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 1: Tell me thirty nine and two. Oh wow. 343 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 2: So the fact that in the playoffs and the NBA Finals, 344 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 2: down like they were, for Lebron James to find ways 345 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 2: to beat a team in the Bay Area when they 346 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 2: were thirty nine and two the whole season, only two 347 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 2: times had a forty one games did the Warriors come 348 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 2: up short at home that year? And I think that 349 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 2: also explains why some of these teams who have the 350 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 2: best records throughout the year end up falling short because 351 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 2: now they're expected to win and the pressure is greater 352 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 2: as a result. So I'll be honest, I'll pull a Fonsie. 353 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 2: I might have been rue Re wrong. I might have 354 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 2: been wrong because remember I said both series are two 355 00:16:55,840 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 2: to zero and they're going home. This is over, dude, 356 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 2: right based on last night and tonight postseason, it doesn't 357 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,200 Speaker 2: matter as much, if anything, he could be working against 358 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 2: them regular season. Yeah, And you know what, right now 359 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 2: for the Brew crew and Denny, I'm not saying I 360 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 2: hope this for. 361 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 1: You because you're a Dodgers guy. 362 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 2: But would it shock you if tonight, all of a sudden, 363 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 2: Contreras and Yelich and all these guys, the ball start dropping, 364 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 2: they get a little looser, and maybe they win tonight, 365 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:25,640 Speaker 2: maybe it's two to one. 366 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 1: They would that shock you? 367 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:28,439 Speaker 4: No One? 368 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 2: Their team that won ninety six games this year's you 369 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,640 Speaker 2: know they're they're gonna something's gonna happen something, And maybe 370 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,120 Speaker 2: they're like, all right, now, we're just in southern California. 371 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 2: We're away from all all the fun of Milwaukee. Oh, 372 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 2: pressure's off. Yelich gets to go get a home cooked 373 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 2: meal from his mom in southern California. Maybe this team 374 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 2: brings it tonight. And I wouldn't be shocked if Blue 375 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 2: Jay's tied up. And I wouldn't be shocked if the 376 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 2: Brewers stole on from the Dodgers tonight, and that would 377 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:54,200 Speaker 2: be what. 378 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 1: Seven seven and zero from the road teams of that, 379 00:17:58,040 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: that would be well. 380 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:00,880 Speaker 3: And it seems so simple to say, but all these 381 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:03,360 Speaker 3: teams are there for a reason. So you think any 382 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 3: of these teams are gonna wilt and just go away quickly, 383 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:06,400 Speaker 3: you're wrong. 384 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:08,880 Speaker 2: No, they're all great teams. These are good for reasons. 385 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 2: These aren't weakst teams that are like, I guess we're 386 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 2: gonna fold. No ninety six win team's gonna fold. No 387 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 2: Blue Jays team who beat out the Yankees for the 388 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,360 Speaker 2: Al East is gonna fold. And it's not just because 389 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 2: it's zero to five. So far, you could visibly see 390 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 2: that these teams were pressing at home and they seem 391 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 2: looser on the road. Yeah, I mean Blue Jays for example, 392 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 2: yesterday thirteen runs out of nowhere, they won thirteen to 393 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 2: four over the Mariners. So if you have any thoughts 394 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 2: on it, by all means, are we not making sense 395 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 2: to you? Do you still believe in the home field advantage? 396 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 2: We do, but in the postseason just doesn't seem to 397 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,400 Speaker 2: be there, not the way it was. Yeah, eight seven 398 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 2: seven ninety nine one Fox eight seven seven ninety nine 399 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,400 Speaker 2: one Fox at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio. 400 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 1: We'll take your feedback next. 401 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:54,479 Speaker 2: We'll talk more baseball later because I know you got 402 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 2: a bunch pick with shohl Tani. 403 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:56,479 Speaker 1: I mean you might. 404 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,920 Speaker 2: It's it's less about show, hey, It's more about how 405 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 2: we treat him, how people will treat him in the media, 406 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 2: se An untouchable. 407 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 1: So we'll talk a little show. 408 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,640 Speaker 2: Hey, we'll talk NFL as we believe this get into 409 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 2: week seven?

I can 417 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 2: visually see the extra pressure these home teams are putting 418 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 2: on themselves. It's because the postseason is different than the 419 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 2: regular season, higher stakes, more expectations.

Let's talk a little NFL. We'll 508 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 2: go to dB for an update. Yesterday, when we filled 509 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,199 Speaker 2: in for Dan Patrick, we talked about how everyone from 510 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 2: NFL on Fox to USA Today everyone has decided to 511 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 2: put out their power rankings as to where we are, 512 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 2: like a third of the way through the NFL season. 513 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:07,360 Speaker 2: USA Today has the Bucks and Colts number one and two. 514 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 2: Pro Football Talk has the Bucks and Colts at one 515 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:14,200 Speaker 2: and two. NFL on Fox has the Bucks at number one, 516 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 2: Colts are on their top five, and if you want 517 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 2: to add to the list, TB twelve himself. Tom Brady 518 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 2: decided to chime in. He has the Bucks and Colts 519 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 2: at one and two. So I ask you all, hold 520 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 2: on though, hold on. 521 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 1: You were right. 522 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 2: USA Today, Pro Football Talk all had Bucks and top 523 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 2: Brady one and two, but NFL on Fox n them off. Yeah, 524 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 2: they didn't even have Colts in the top five. Now 525 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 2: they had the Bucks and Lions at one and two. 526 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,919 Speaker 2: Packers Lions, Rams are Brady's three four five and if 527 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 2: you want to just play stat Boy, three four five 528 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 2: for USA today was Seahawks, Steelers, Lions, Lions, Rams, Steelers 529 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 2: for Pro Football Talk, Rams, Packers, Bills for NFL on Fox. 530 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 2: But they had the Lions at number two, So Lions 531 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,160 Speaker 2: seem like someone we could all get behind, like Lions 532 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 2: will be rich. It was all the hype that Baker 533 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,040 Speaker 2: Mayfield and the Buccaneers got this past weekend against your 534 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 2: team because everybody's injured. But I think what separated the 535 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,879 Speaker 2: Buccaneers is that Baker Mayfield still found a way to 536 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 2: win with all the other players despite the injuries. My question, Covino, 537 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,440 Speaker 2: because all of a sudden, everyone's swinging from Mayfield. 538 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:22,679 Speaker 1: My question for. 539 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,359 Speaker 2: Not only Ukavina, but for everyone in the room and 540 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:28,679 Speaker 2: everyone listening. When you think of power rankings, do we 541 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 2: interpret that as you genuinely feel like those are the 542 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 2: best teams, like in this moment, like you think moving 543 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:35,359 Speaker 2: forward to the best teams. 544 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:35,920 Speaker 3: Like that's in the moment. 545 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I feel like power rankings is such an 546 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 2: interesting thing. Is Listen, When I was a kid, I 547 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 2: don't know who the first to do it was, but 548 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,640 Speaker 2: I remember always looking up the power rankings to see 549 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 2: where the Niners were. And I'm sure you felt the 550 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 2: same about the Raiders and the Seahawks, like I would 551 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 2: always look at the power rankings as a kid with 552 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 2: such like it's a good place to be. 553 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 1: Like me, it's better to be there than not to 554 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 1: have an up arrow or a. 555 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 2: Down arrow, like power rankings are the thing we put 556 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 2: You know, I don't like weird stock into But do 557 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 2: you genuinely feel like the Bucks and the cult of 558 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 2: the two best teams in football. 559 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,920 Speaker 1: In a way? Yes, honestly. Like it's a tricky question 560 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:11,439 Speaker 1: because I'm not saying I disagree with you. 561 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 2: I'm sort of like, I mean, no way answer where 562 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 2: the Steelers stand tonight. 563 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,719 Speaker 4: The Buccaneers have answered the bell in a couple of 564 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:24,199 Speaker 4: really tough situations, including in Seattle and getting that win 565 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 4: against the Seahawks. It's one of the better wins. In fact, 566 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,400 Speaker 4: rich I would even argue that if the forty nine 567 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,160 Speaker 4: Ers wouldn't have lost to the Buccaneers this past weekend 568 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,680 Speaker 4: that there would be an argument for what your Niners 569 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 4: have done so far, because when you would if you 570 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,400 Speaker 4: were to win in Tampa, if you were to win 571 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 4: in Seattle and do what you did, that there'd be 572 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 4: an argument there. But I just I don't believe in 573 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 4: what the Eagles are right now. I think that the 574 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 4: Bills have many flaws, and I don't think we can 575 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 4: reward a team like the Chiefs, I big Denver to 576 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,399 Speaker 4: win the Super Bowl. Are at four and two, but 577 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,880 Speaker 4: could have lost to the Jets in London this past weekend, 578 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 4: So Ravens are not Yeah, well, I've been having the 579 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 4: good teams. I'm not to believe we were at a 580 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:04,120 Speaker 4: crown the Packers the Super Bowl champions after week two 581 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 4: and now we're like, wow, you really couldn't put away 582 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 4: a Joe Flacco led Bengals team this past week. 583 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 2: What's funny is Cavino and I we're joking about the 584 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 2: Packers earlier, how like the weirdest record because they had 585 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,400 Speaker 2: the bye week and the tie week. So the Packers 586 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 2: are three to one and one like it feels like 587 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 2: it doesn't belong and the rest of the standings, like 588 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 2: other teams four and two, five and one, one and 589 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:27,400 Speaker 2: five three. 590 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 1: To one and one. 591 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, and the losses to the Browns, Yeah, yeah, funky. 592 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 2: It's interesting because the two teams to wrap this up 593 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 2: to two teams that arguably every outlet is saying are 594 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:42,640 Speaker 2: one and two are both underdogs this week in the NFL, Well, 595 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 2: you two underdogs. 596 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 3: Better figure out after Week seven wraps up next Monday, 597 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,919 Speaker 3: who are the top teams? Because you've said, and you 598 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 3: extended last year on the radio show, said, by week seven, 599 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 3: we'll tell you who's who in the NFL. 600 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 2: Fie weeks, I would say, I have one more week, 601 00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 2: and you had this two very telling games based on 602 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 2: what Dan Byer and I were just discussing. 603 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:04,119 Speaker 1: Listen to this. 604 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 2: Get this as Tony no Breaks would say, this very 605 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 2: telling game. Out here in Los Angeles, the Chargers hosting 606 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 2: the Colts. Chargers are one and a half point favorites. 607 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,120 Speaker 2: If the Colts convincingly beat the Chargers out here in LA, 608 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:23,920 Speaker 2: that's to me, that's a stamp of they are real, 609 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 2: like real legit contenders. Now if they come out here 610 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 2: and stumble, I don't think it's the end of the world. 611 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 2: It could be an l on the schedule that doesn't 612 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,679 Speaker 2: destroy the Cults. But if you come out here and 613 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 2: beat the Chargers and moved to six and one, how 614 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 2: could you deny the Cults? 615 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 1: Right? 616 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 3: They played well last time they were at so far 617 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 3: against the ram yny them. 618 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 2: And you can't deny the Buccaneers either, because how many 619 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 2: people like the Colin Cowherds of the world too, who 620 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 2: used to dump on Baker Mayfield had to look back 621 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 2: and say, you know what, I was wrong about that 622 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 2: because look how great they're playing now. I don't think 623 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 2: people were quick to give the Buccaneers or Mayfield any credit. 624 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 2: And he's undeniably leading that team, so you have to 625 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 2: give him the credit. Well, then you should love the 626 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 2: second part of what I just said, because Monday Night 627 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 2: another double doozy for Monday Night football in a few 628 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 2: days from now, the first game which starts right at 629 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 2: the end of our show, four pm, West Coast, seven 630 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 2: o'clock back East Bucks at Lions. If that is not 631 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 2: the most telling game of the week, that's so good. 632 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 2: Box at Lions and Lions are five and a half 633 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 2: point favorites again an NFL on Fox. They're number one 634 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 2: and two Box and Lions according to the Power rank. 635 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 1: So Bucks and Lions. 636 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 2: You're gonna see what if Baker goes up to Detroit 637 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,959 Speaker 2: and with again you know, some bang ups on that offense. 638 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 2: What if they go beat the Lions? That would really 639 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 2: make you think crap Buccaneers? 640 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 1: It for real? 641 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, Rich loves to look at the schedule. 642 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:53,680 Speaker 1: Game you'll watch it. That's what I do best. All right, 643 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: what's gonna Dann buy for an update? 644 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 5: D me? 645 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: What's going on? My friend? 646 00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 4: I would actually argue, because I love rankings in college football, 647 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 4: that you should have them in the NFL. How great 648 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 4: would it be to promote one versus two on Monday 649 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 4: Night football? 650 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 1: Right? 651 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 4: Ultimately it's meaningless because we have a playoff at the 652 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 4: end that's determined by record. But if we actually did 653 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 4: incorporate power rankings, how great. 654 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 1: Would it be to see those matches? Hey, we got 655 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 1: a three versus five match up? 656 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 2: You know, some teams would play with a chip on 657 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 2: their shoulder if they like if you're the kNs City 658 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 2: Chiefs and Andy Reid Mahomes, you know, to think we're 659 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 2: not even ranked, We're not even top ten ranked. 660 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 3: The problem DV is a network would have to sell 661 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 3: twenty five versus twenty. 662 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 4: Eight, like oh Man that only goes to certain parts 663 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 4: of Charlotte and then other places.
