Transcript
- 0:11It is the last Sling TV Sunday of the NFL season. Hey everybody,
- 0:16I'm Alex Garrett with one leg up on the big Game, on the Super
- 0:20Bowl with some stats for you. But I've got one question tonight, and
- 0:25if you're in New Yorker you kind of get it because we see it every
- 0:29time Super Bowl winner is crowned. Who will light the Empire State Building?
- 0:33If you check out my instagram Alex g NYC one, I have a picture
- 0:37in my Niners and my Chiefs gear in front of the Empire State Building.
- 0:42Of course, gear provided by Fanatics, thanks to them as always. And
- 0:48we'll drop a link in case Christian McCaffrey does something amazing tonight you'll want to
- 0:53wear his jersey. I'll put that in the bio. And of course,
- 0:56when you do buy from my Fanatics affiliate link, I do make a mission
- 1:00which supports the Alex Garrett podcast network. But I got a couple of stats
- 1:04for you tonight. Do you know I'm part of this Inbox Dollars team,
- 1:10And Inbox Dollars said, are you going to watch the Super Bowl? I
- 1:14said, of course I am, and I normally watch it just for the
- 1:15game twenty seven percent of that poll, according to Inbox Dollars, said they
- 1:21will not be watching the super Bowl, and that was the most of all
- 1:25the votes in this certain survey. So will you be watching the super Bowl
- 1:30or are you one of the twenty seven percent according to Inbox Dollars that say
- 1:34we're not going to watch super Bowl? Now? Of course, the super
- 1:37Bowl to me, the Big Game is always a cultural icon, whether it
- 1:42be well mainly for the halftime show or the commercials. Do we ever really
- 1:48talk about that incredible play, you know, that Roethlisberger to Antonio Holmes's touchdown
- 1:53against the Cardinals or I don't know, the manning to Tyree? I mean,
- 1:59does the game ever get featured as the game nowadays? Or do you
- 2:02talk about the cultural aspect of the Super Bowl? It's something we all gather
- 2:07around the TV for one another, unless you're one of the twenty seven percent,
- 2:13But mostly we gather around the TV and it's something to talk about at
- 2:16the water cooler the next day. But this year, as I've stressed with
- 2:22a couple other Super Bowl drop ins this week, I feel like it's all
- 2:25about the entertainment today in Vegas. I mean, when do we think Taylor
- 2:30Swift landing in Los Angeles would have any effect on the Super Bowl coverage,
- 2:34but it has, and I guess we have to just live with it and
- 2:38accept that she's part of the fold, because she's in the Kelsey family fold.
- 2:43Right, So there's that. But today today, I gotta say,
- 2:49though a lot of Swifties, a lot of Chiefees are rooting for the Chiefs,
- 2:54I gotta say, Vivid Seats, according to Sports Not said the majority
- 2:59of fans in Vegas are predicted to be well, this is this is expected
- 3:06considering that San Francisco is right next to Vegas and a sense right to stay
- 3:09over. So there's a percentage according to Sports and Vivid Seats out there,
- 3:16let's say the Chiefs the Niners fan base will dominate the actual group and attendance.
- 3:24I gotta pull up that stat for you here from Vivid Seats because it
- 3:29was sort of like, wow, all this stuff about Taylor and all this
- 3:31stuff about what Mahomes will do whether he wins this third Super Bowl, or
- 3:36what Kelsey will do. Yet it was reported that vivid Seats is saying,
- 3:44you know, San Francisco will have more fans out there than than the Chiefs,
- 3:52which I think makes sense, don't you. I think so. I'll
- 3:57find that set in a second. But what will you be doing today for
- 4:02the Super Bowl? Will you be enjoying it? Will you be not watching
- 4:06it? Will you watch it for different reasons? Once your game plan today?
- 4:15I know I will be certainly watching it with my future in laws in
- 4:18Low Island. That'll be fun. And of course wearing my Montana jersey and
- 4:26believe it or not, my football my New York State football sweater, because
- 4:30I do believe at the end of the day, we are in New York
- 4:33State and we should be repped on Super Bowl Somenday. But it's no surprise
- 4:43that the Chiefs that the Niners will have more representation out in Vegas. Do
- 4:49you like it being in Vegas? Did you like Super Bowl Week? Did
- 4:53you like the coverage of it? Because I thought it was kind of exhausting
- 5:04some of the coverage about it being in Vegas, about it being the Swifty
- 5:12Bowl, I mean all of that. Uh it was. It wasn't about
- 5:18the game this week, and here we go. This is the set I
- 5:21was looking for. According to vivid Seats, fifty eight percent of the crowd
- 5:27at Allegian Stadium today will be supporting the forty nine ers in their eighth ever
- 5:32Super Bowl appearance. Teos fans will represent just forty two percent, so fifty
- 5:38eight percent group want to be the anti hero today. And I certainly looked
- 5:46for Christian McCaffrey to be a factor. I look for brock Party to you
- 5:50know, Altho, always a young kid. He looked poised against the Lions
- 5:55and that comeback run, so I look for him to have a game today
- 5:59as well. And of course some breaking news here, Kadarius Tony not expected
- 6:05to play today against the forty nine ers, even though he was taking off
- 6:10the injury report. So as we started the Super Bowl droppings, the troubling
- 6:17case of Kadarius has maybe a case closed because he will not be playing in
- 6:25today's Super Bowl. And you know what I am, uh, I'm okay
- 6:31with that. I think if you're local, you gotta keep an eye on
- 6:35running back Isaiah Pacheco, Rutgers alum. Right, Rutgers guy, keep an
- 6:41eye on him. And if your Notre Dame, you know, keep an
- 6:46eye on those alums as well. A lot of factors playing into today,
- 6:51and please, just please, can we focus on the game for sixty minutes,
- 7:00steam minutes. I know that they dropped in on Taylor Swift for about
- 7:02thirty eight seconds. That's really all it should be. Nothing more, nothing
- 7:10less. Thirty eight seconds is fine. Just focus on the big game,
- 7:15the Lombardi Trophy as that's what it's all about today. Super Bowl Sunday.
- 7:24Yeah, I met Joe Montana. But you know why. I also liked
- 7:26the Niners. I just I have said it before. I love that Christian
- 7:30McCaffrey has re energized his team. And by the way, I am all
- 7:33about snapping droughts, and the Niners haven't won since the nineties, since the
- 7:40nineties, and a little bit of throwing things in the chaos, I wouldn't
- 7:48mind that. If the which is Greek word by the way, if the
- 7:54Niners pulled it off, can they seal the deal? That's the question I
- 7:57asked earlier this week, and I'll say it again on Super Bowl Sunday.
- 8:01Did anybody ask these guys, how will you seal the deal against the Chiefs?
- 8:05That's the question of the week. Enjoy it. It's gonna be fun,
- 8:11it's gonna be intense, and it's gonna be magnified and swiftified. I
- 8:24have to just say Miserabowl is swiftified, and whether you like it or not,
- 8:28we just have to accept it and say, hey, let's focus on
- 8:31the game. It's Super Bowl Sunday. All the marvels today in Allegiance Stadium
- 8:37in Viva Las Vegas. Talk to you soon on the Alex Scatt podcast Network. Enjoy
