- 1:26Speaker 1: listens when the Bills win. When the Bills, he says,
- 1:29Speaker 1: I can't listen. I only need positivity, I say, no,
- 1:33Speaker 1: you need negativity when your team loses. But this portion

- 2:05Speaker 1: this hour from Sun Day Night. Foot Ball as the
- 2:12Speaker 1: day and it's still another game on Monday, but we'll
- 2:15Speaker 1: lead off in Western New York where the last game
- 2:20Speaker 1: was played here and a patriotic performance at AFC East.
- 2:25Speaker 1: Slobber Knocker was the set up there. And if you
- 2:29Speaker 1: had the Buffalo Bills going seventeen and oher, you are
- 2:33Speaker 1: a loser. You're a loser. Drake may get being credited
- 2:38Speaker 1: with leading the Patriots. He did not have a touchdown pass,
- 2:41Speaker 1: but he did matriculate the ball down the field a
- 2:44Speaker 1: couple of times there. Patriots get it done a thirty
- 2:49Speaker 1: seven yard drive late, setting up a rookie kicker from Miami.
- 2:53Speaker 1: I'm sure that'll go well when the weather gets bad
- 2:55Speaker 1: in the Northeast, Andy bore gallis a fifty two yard
- 2:58Speaker 1: field goal within fifteen seconds left, and it was turned
- 3:03Speaker 1: out the last the Barties over on the undefeated season
- 3:07Speaker 1: for the Buffalo Bills as they lose twenty three to
- 3:09Speaker 1: twenty on a Sunday night. And so now the NFL.
- 3:13Speaker 1: I don't how many guys are left from the seventy
- 3:16Speaker 1: seventy two Dolphins that went undefeated, but if there's any
- 3:19Speaker 1: of them still living, they seem like they A lot
- 3:21Speaker 1: of them have died in recent years. But any of
- 3:24Speaker 1: them still left can crack the champagne there as there
- 3:27Speaker 1: will not be an undefeated team in the NFL five
- 3:30Speaker 1: weeks into the season and they're all gone, all gone,
- 3:34Speaker 1: all the unbeaten teams. To Fawn Diggs ten catches for
- 3:37Speaker 1: one hundred and forty six yards of the Patriots off
- 3:40Speaker 1: to the three and two start on the season. That
- 3:43Speaker 1: is a winning record. My computer, like Brank, tells me
- 3:45Speaker 1: after five games and they win there the game there
- 3:49Speaker 1: in Buffalo at diggs first game back there since he
- 3:54Speaker 1: was excommunicated from the Bills sent packing to Houston. Despite
- 3:59Speaker 1: we said, this guy with the show named Andy, the
- 4:01Speaker 1: comic book guy who was part of Bill's mafia, and
- 4:03Speaker 1: Andy was, oh, no, Sefon Diggs. No, he's a model citizen,
- 4:07Speaker 1: model teammate. Of course, we all knew that was bull
- 4:09Speaker 1: crap and it's proven correct as time has gone on
- 4:13Speaker 1: here when you talk about what happened. But for the Patriots,
- 4:16Speaker 1: Diggs had a big day. Remandre Stevenson did not have
- 4:20Speaker 1: a backbreaking fumble in this game. He had a couple
- 4:23Speaker 1: of touchdowns on the ground and also the second one
- 4:26Speaker 1: set up by Stefan Digs who had a thirty two
- 4:29Speaker 1: yard catch and run, and the Patriots win. Drake May
- 4:33Speaker 1: twittered seventy three yards passing for the game, but no touchdown.
- 4:37Speaker 1: Throws but no interceptions, so you know, turn the ball
- 4:40Speaker 1: over and the defense made some plays. The Buffalo Bill's
- 4:44Speaker 1: very generous in this game. But the better story is
- 4:47Speaker 1: in the losing locker room and Josh Allen not holding back,
- 4:51Speaker 1: not biting his tongue. Here Josh Allen about the Buffalo
- 4:55Speaker 1: Bills and the offense, the performance of the Buffalo Bills.
- 4:57Speaker 1: I think we have that audio. Let's go to the audio.
- 5:00Speaker 1: Here's Josh Allen commenting on the performance of the Buffalo
- 5:04Speaker 1: Bills offense take a.
- 5:05Speaker 5: Listen, we just played sloppy. It's not gonna win a
- 5:10Speaker 5: football game. Turning the ball over three times in our
- 5:13Speaker 5: red zone, gave them one in their red zone. That's
- 5:16Speaker 5: just bad, bad football. And we just did not play
- 5:19Speaker 5: good tonight. But again, we shouldn't have shouldn't have even
- 5:22Speaker 5: been in it with three turnovers. So that's a Again,
- 5:24Speaker 5: that's just that's just piss poor offense.
- 5:26Speaker 1: There you go see piss poor offense for the Buffalo Bills.
- 5:30Speaker 1: Josh Allen. That's a quote, Josh Allen, piss poor offense
- 5:34Speaker 1: by the Buffalo Bill. All Right, so let us discuss
- 5:36Speaker 1: the question. How do you read the Josh Allen sound?
- 5:40Speaker 1: But you just heard it there, his take on the
- 5:43Speaker 1: Bills losing here at home to the Patriots. So I've
- 5:46Speaker 1: got Purple Hayes, Jim bro and Sinkle, and we will
- 5:52Speaker 1: combine all of these things together and we are going
- 5:56Speaker 1: to put the biscuit in the basket, is what we're
- 5:59Speaker 1: going to do. But the bi get in the basket.
- 6:01Speaker 1: So a this was a Smelling Salts special, a smelling
- 6:08Speaker 1: Salt special for the team from Buffalo. They needed a
- 6:12Speaker 1: wake up call. Now, normally you don't need a wake
- 6:15Speaker 1: up call. My experience, when you play an Island game
- 6:19Speaker 1: at night, you genuinely do not need a wake up call.
- 6:23Speaker 1: This is not a morning game. This was not a
- 6:25Speaker 1: team traveling from a different time zone to have to
- 6:28Speaker 1: play a game and an odd out or no. This
- 6:30Speaker 1: was a standard East Coast night game between two teams
- 6:33Speaker 1: that are in the Eastern time zone. And yet the
- 6:36Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills were like sleepwalking at the beginning of this game.
- 6:41Speaker 1: And I guess they thought Patriots are so bad they
- 6:44Speaker 1: don't have to play a full gusto here. They can
- 6:47Speaker 1: sleepwalk divisional home game against the Patriots and all that stuff.
- 6:52Speaker 1: And the Bills got what they deserved. They just got
- 6:56Speaker 1: what they deserve. I mean, we saw the game, if
- 6:58Speaker 1: you heard about it, and we saw it appen listening
- 7:00Speaker 1: to on the radio. Whatever, they got a big fat
- 7:04Speaker 1: capital L loss, primetime loss, that's what they deserved. The
- 7:08Speaker 1: way they played in this game. That was a supermarket
- 7:11Speaker 1: Steve special is what that was. Meaning, there's a spill
- 7:15Speaker 1: on Aisle seventeen, and we need a mop and a
- 7:18Speaker 1: bucket because the Buffalo Bills made a mess of themselves.
- 7:22Speaker 1: They defecated all over Asle seventeen. It's a bad job
- 7:26Speaker 1: by them. Eleven accepted penalties eleven against the Buffalo Bills.
- 7:32Speaker 1: But wait, there's more Buffalo. What they did here was
- 7:37Speaker 1: another caller, this guy Hayes, Purple Hayes, we call him
- 7:40Speaker 1: from Minnesota, who calls the show every four or five months,
- 7:44Speaker 1: and he works at a mortuary in Minnesota and he
- 7:49Speaker 1: picks up bodies and takes care of them and all
- 7:51Speaker 1: that stuff when they meet their demise. And so for him,
- 7:55Speaker 1: it's like the Buffalo Bills. They needed that because they
- 7:57Speaker 1: needed a grave digger. They'd already done the grave. The
- 8:00Speaker 1: problem was not the grave. They dug their own grave. Here.
- 8:03Speaker 1: They dug the hole. They jumped in. They wanted to
- 8:06Speaker 1: get out, but they left their shovel up top, and
- 8:09Speaker 1: they didn't have a ladder to get out of the grave.
- 8:10Speaker 1: They dug themselves. And so that was it. Josh Allen
- 8:14Speaker 1: headlining the episode of Disaster Piece Theater in this game
- 8:18Speaker 1: for how long do we hear that the Bills had
- 8:20Speaker 1: that long stretch? They said, an NFL record for most
- 8:23Speaker 1: games without turning the ball over, making mistakes and all
- 8:26Speaker 1: that stuff. So you figure it's gonna even out right
- 8:29Speaker 1: all things even out over a period of time, and
- 8:31Speaker 1: so they even out here in the first half. You
- 8:33Speaker 1: had my math is right, I wrote, I jotted down.
- 8:38Speaker 1: I don't know what that is. I jotted down fumble,
- 8:41Speaker 1: jotted down punt, fumble, field goal punt. That's your game
- 8:45Speaker 1: script for the Buffalo Bills. So again that's fumble, punt, fumble,
- 8:48Speaker 1: field goal punt. That's it. And you play with the
- 8:53Speaker 1: live hand grenades, and they were certainly playing with live
- 8:56Speaker 1: hand grenades there. You play with those and then eventually
- 8:59Speaker 1: come boom, get some shrapnel. That's what happens there. We're
- 9:03Speaker 1: not surprising enough. If you watch Benny versus De Penny.
- 9:05Speaker 1: We had another, to quote Josh Allen, piss poor weekend
- 9:09Speaker 1: on the NFL. But that's one of the things we
- 9:11Speaker 1: did get right was the Patriots plus the points against
- 9:15Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills there. So we were not shocked by
- 9:18Speaker 1: this perform and still to see the Bills turn the
- 9:20Speaker 1: ball over that much, that was surprising. He said, Oh,
- 9:22Speaker 1: they lose the game, but they wouldn't do it because
- 9:24Speaker 1: the turnovers. But they did, and the Bills, if you
- 9:27Speaker 1: look at their record, Bill's Mafia is not gonna like me. Oh,
- 9:30Speaker 1: I can't believe there's such a hater because anything that's reality,
- 9:34Speaker 1: anything reality base people get all upset about. But the
- 9:36Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills have been skating on thin ice for a
- 9:40Speaker 1: while here. Remember that opening game, the Ravens had it
- 9:43Speaker 1: in control and then Derrick Henry gave it away. I said,
- 9:47Speaker 1: I want to win. We're gonna give the win to you,
- 9:49Speaker 1: and he fumbled. Fumbleup set the Bills up for the
- 9:52Speaker 1: crazy comeback late in the game the Dolphins right there
- 9:58Speaker 1: on the fourth court. That lowly mind Miami Dolphins went
- 10:01Speaker 1: into Orchard Part, New York and had a shot that
- 10:04Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints. The Bills could not cover the
- 10:08Speaker 1: points spread against US Saints. That's an embarrassment. So you
- 10:13Speaker 1: were you were playing with some issues here and you
- 10:17Speaker 1: finally got burned with it and eventually the luck runs
- 10:19Speaker 1: out or whatever if you believe in that kind of things.
- 10:21Speaker 1: But this was the universal signed from above from the heavens,
- 10:27Speaker 1: right that the universe giving them the knock them down
- 10:31Speaker 1: a couple of pegs situation here for the Buffalo Bills.
- 10:35Speaker 1: And can't keep showing up half asleep, generally speaking, half
- 10:38Speaker 1: asleep and expect the football gods to keep bailing you out.
- 10:43Speaker 1: And by any way you slice it, any way that
- 10:47Speaker 1: you slice it. Here just a flat game, and it's
- 10:51Speaker 1: an island game. And I don't know, I don't think
- 10:53Speaker 1: it's like you have seventeen You supposedly hear how hard
- 10:57Speaker 1: these people work, and they spend all year working on
- 10:59Speaker 1: but yet they still some teams, you know, a couple
- 11:01Speaker 1: times a year you just have a clunker. The Bills
- 11:04Speaker 1: have had several clunkers. They won most of them, but
- 11:06Speaker 1: it finally came back to bite them. And so it's
- 11:08Speaker 1: a ce la Vis situation for the Buffalo Bills at
- 11:12Speaker 1: this point, such as life in Buffalo. Now. The good
- 11:15Speaker 1: news is you look at that division, it's like, well,
- 11:17Speaker 1: the Patriots are the only chance, the only threat lurking
- 11:21Speaker 1: in that division is the Patriots. Like the Patriots are
- 11:24Speaker 1: just mediocre, then the Bills have nothing to worry about.
- 11:27Speaker 1: If the Patriots are better than that, then there's something there.
- 11:30Speaker 1: There's absolutely something all right now turning the Patriot. So
- 11:33Speaker 1: we'll stay with this game. There's some drama o rama
- 11:37Speaker 1: going on between Stefan Diggs, who had a breakout game,
- 11:40Speaker 1: was targeted twelve times Digs the former Bill who's now
- 11:44Speaker 1: toiling in New England, that he enjoys the pink drank
- 11:49Speaker 1: or the pink goo or whatever that stuff was that
- 11:52Speaker 1: they had on the boat there with Cardi b and
- 11:53Speaker 1: having a grand old time there at the Eye. But
- 11:56Speaker 1: Sefon Diggs twelve targets, ten catches for a hundred and
- 12:00Speaker 1: forty six yards. I'm told that is good against his
- 12:03Speaker 1: old friends, the Bills. I didn't play in the NFL,
- 12:05Speaker 1: but I don't want to offend Ryan Clark. But I'm
- 12:07Speaker 1: told that's good. I'm told that's good. Then Diggs gave
- 12:10Speaker 1: us the money quote after the game. Stefan Diggs, when
- 12:15Speaker 1: asked about his old stomping grounds there in Western New York,
- 12:20Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs on the Patriot Bills game, said that it
- 12:23Speaker 1: was quote one hundred percent personal, one hundred percent personal.
- 12:28Speaker 1: Close quote from Stefan Diggs on the matchup against his
- 12:33Speaker 1: former team, the Bills. So can you decode that particular
- 12:37Speaker 1: quote from Stefan Diggs. Of course we can. We have
- 12:40Speaker 1: the ultimate mather of Rosetta Stone. We can decode all
- 12:42Speaker 1: of this stuff. So that response it's one hundred percent personal,
- 12:46Speaker 1: is on brand. It's obviously on brand here. Classic narcissism
- 12:51Speaker 1: by Stefan Diggs. And that's what it's all about, right,
- 12:55Speaker 1: just obviously it was all about it. It's never enough
- 12:58Speaker 1: just to play well. And it's not just digs. It's like,
- 13:01Speaker 1: you just can't go out and play well. To play well,
- 13:05Speaker 1: you have to have motivation, right, You've got to sprinkle
- 13:07Speaker 1: in some drama, little flakes of drama. You just sprinkle, sprinkle, sprinkle,
- 13:12Speaker 1: sprink You sprinkle those in just like that. It's personal.
- 13:17Speaker 1: And the thing is great about this is there are
- 13:20Speaker 1: a lot of dumb fans that think, well, yeah, he's right,
- 13:22Speaker 1: it was personal. The bills did him dirty? No, no,
- 13:27Speaker 1: they did not. That that would be incorrect. Here. You
- 13:30Speaker 1: were the problem, Stefawon Diggs in Buffalo. We had said it.
- 13:34Speaker 1: Everyone knew it, who paid attention to it. You were
- 13:37Speaker 1: the issue there, not the bills. You were the problem there,
- 13:40Speaker 1: and you look at it and you powdered your way
- 13:43Speaker 1: out of Buffalo. You powdered your way out of the bills.
- 13:46Speaker 1: You don't want to be there, And it was the classic.
- 13:49Speaker 1: Now he's acting like it's the breakup, you know, the
- 13:52Speaker 1: cliche of the boyfriend girlfriend breaks up. The girl dumps
- 13:54Speaker 1: the boy, and the guy's like, all right, I'm a
- 13:56Speaker 1: gym bro man. I'm gonna post a bunch of photos
- 13:59Speaker 1: from the gym, right Jim Selfie's captioned living my best
- 14:03Speaker 1: life like crap like that. That's essentially what Stefan Diggs
- 14:06Speaker 1: is doing here right now, pretending he's over it. But
- 14:08Speaker 1: he's not over it. He's obviously not over it. And
- 14:11Speaker 1: that's the big You understand how much the Bills had
- 14:14Speaker 1: enough of Stefan Diggs. They kept around two years longer
- 14:17Speaker 1: than they should have. But Stefan Diggs, if you look
- 14:20Speaker 1: at it, when he was there at the very end
- 14:24Speaker 1: in Buffalo, and the Bills publicly leaked a lot of
- 14:28Speaker 1: stories to make it seem like there was no issue,
- 14:29Speaker 1: but there were so many clues along the way there
- 14:33Speaker 1: were problems there. And you look at it and it's
- 14:35Speaker 1: like the Buffalo Bills and I went back and I
- 14:38Speaker 1: checked my notes because I was pretty confident I was right,
- 14:41Speaker 1: and I believe I am correct here. In order to
- 14:44Speaker 1: get rid of Stefan Digs at the end of his
- 14:46Speaker 1: time with the Bills, the Buffalo franchise ate the biggest
- 14:50Speaker 1: non quarterback salary cap hit in the history of the NFL.
- 14:57Speaker 1: Now I am a salary cap truther, but that's still
- 14:59Speaker 1: a ton of money that the Buffalo Bills ate. The
- 15:02Speaker 1: bills ate it. They did not have barbecue sauce, they
- 15:05Speaker 1: did not have honey mustard. They just they just ate it.
- 15:08Speaker 1: They decided they would rather eat the money mana money,
- 15:11Speaker 1: eat that money, then deal with the sideline hissy fits
- 15:15Speaker 1: from mister Diggs there and the bad body language, the sulking,
- 15:20Speaker 1: the whole routine right, the whole routine there, and at
- 15:23Speaker 1: the end Diggs acted when he was with the Bills
- 15:26Speaker 1: like he was a prisoner in Guantanamo Bay. The way
- 15:29Speaker 1: the way he was acting there with Josh Allen, you know,
- 15:33Speaker 1: every time Alan wouldn't throw them the ball, it was
- 15:35Speaker 1: like a personal assault against the von Diggs and all
- 15:37Speaker 1: that stuff. So I do enjoy the revisionist history, like
- 15:42Speaker 1: there's something else that was going on. There's nothing else
- 15:44Speaker 1: going on. It's it's unbelievable. Sevon Diggs was pouting poudy, poudy,
- 15:48Speaker 1: poudy with Josh Allen at Loggerheads. I ain't playing nice now,
- 15:52Speaker 1: they're not working together. They're former work friends, and you
- 15:55Speaker 1: can play nice and all that stuff. But it wasn't
- 15:58Speaker 1: just Josh Allen. There were issues with the coaching staff
- 16:00Speaker 1: have There were the cryptic text tweets back then, and
- 16:05Speaker 1: I'm all for that. I don't have a problem with that.
- 16:06Speaker 1: Good for talk radio when you send cryptic messages out.
- 16:10Speaker 1: But Buffalo did not do Stefan Diggs dirty. They did not,
- 16:14Speaker 1: and finally called his bluff. They got rid of him.
- 16:17Speaker 1: And and so this is like Stefan Diggs doing some therapy.
- 16:21Speaker 1: So I'll sit in the chair and I'll do a
- 16:23Speaker 1: little therapy here. And you know, he needed this game.
- 16:26Speaker 1: He convinced himself clearly had big stat line. Good for
- 16:28Speaker 1: him that he's still the guy coming off the operation
- 16:32Speaker 1: when he was in the with Houston, he hurt himself,
- 16:33Speaker 1: had had the surgery of the ACL But deep down, right,
- 16:38Speaker 1: you look around and Stefon Diggs, he knows the Bills
- 16:44Speaker 1: don't miss him, and that's gotta bother. Right, Bill's had
- 16:47Speaker 1: a good year essentially the same team they were with him.
- 16:51Speaker 1: They're not a legit championship team in Buffalo in that regard,
- 16:55Speaker 1: they're a fraud, but they're a solid second line contender,
- 16:58Speaker 1: right the Bills. They will get you into the playoffs.
- 17:02Speaker 1: They'll get you win a couple of games in the
- 17:03Speaker 1: play but ultimately they'll f up, they'll screw something up,
- 17:06Speaker 1: and they'll lose. That's what the Bills do. And so
- 17:09Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs got his revenge. Congratulations, he got a little
- 17:13Speaker 1: bit of closure. But they play these teams play each
- 17:15Speaker 1: other twice a year, so there'll be another match up here.
- 17:17Speaker 1: The problem though, Diggs has is still trying to convince
- 17:21Speaker 1: everyone and even himself that he was the victim, like
- 17:27Speaker 1: because everyone loves victimhood and all that stuff, and the
- 17:29Speaker 1: Bills somehow did him wrong. And of course I looked
- 17:32Speaker 1: at the evidence and they rescued themselves from Stefan Diggs.
- 17:37Speaker 1: All right, now, last thing and the last word here,
- 17:41Speaker 1: Does this count? This Patriots win on Sunday Night and
- 17:45Speaker 1: even game over the Buffalo Bills with a late field
- 17:48Speaker 1: goal under twenty seconds to go. The Patriots get that
- 17:52Speaker 1: late field goal. Does this count as a signature win
- 17:56Speaker 1: for Drake May's Patriots? So I will be Benny Bright's
- 17:59Speaker 1: side to a point, and I will nod my head, yes,
- 18:02Speaker 1: I'm nodding my head, yes, that this does count as
- 18:05Speaker 1: a signature win. Here's why Drake May had no signituit.
- 18:09Speaker 1: So anything literally anything against the halfway decent team would
- 18:13Speaker 1: have been a signatuoit. So what I'm trying to say
- 18:16Speaker 1: here is if you look at it, the bar has
- 18:19Speaker 1: been replaced by a sinkhole. For the Patriots, there's no
- 18:23Speaker 1: bar to clear. You're just trying to jump over a sinkhole,
- 18:26Speaker 1: is what you know. That counts as a signature win
- 18:29Speaker 1: in this modern era of the Patriots, not for the
- 18:33Speaker 1: Belichick Brady days, not in that era. Those guys are
- 18:37Speaker 1: long gone. Bill Belichick getting his face smashed in in
- 18:41Speaker 1: college football and Tom Brady, by the way, is there
- 18:44Speaker 1: a worse general manager than Tom Brady? What he put
- 18:47Speaker 1: together with the Raiders? Holy crap. But you can't rip
- 18:50Speaker 1: Brady because he's football Royalty. What a terrible job tom
- 18:52Speaker 1: Brady did, Pete Carroll and Gino Smith more on that later,
- 18:56Speaker 1: Holy crap, that's Tom Brady. He handpicked the coach, he
- 19:00Speaker 1: hint picked the quarterback and they blow anyway. So those
- 19:04Speaker 1: guys are gone. But like a house by the side
- 19:07Speaker 1: of the road. But you look at the team the
- 19:10Speaker 1: pageot and this does again the bar is low. It's
- 19:13Speaker 1: a sinkhole. So let's not go nuts. I'm not gonna
- 19:16Speaker 1: overreact to this. The Bills were sloppy. That was a
- 19:19Speaker 1: large part of the game. But a lot of these
- 19:22Speaker 1: games are decided because most games are lost, not one,
- 19:25Speaker 1: so that is a factor in this. Eleven penalties we
- 19:29Speaker 1: mentioned that early eleven penalties, a couple of turnovers as well.
- 19:33Speaker 1: For the Buffalo Bills in this game and the pictures,
- 19:35Speaker 1: it didn't exactly wow you. It's not like you we WHOA,
- 19:38Speaker 1: this is like, oh, this is a team that's gonna
- 19:40Speaker 1: really contend in the AFC and all that stuff. No
- 19:43Speaker 1: touchdown passes for Drake may in this game. However, he
- 19:46Speaker 1: did average nine yards per pass attempt. There were a
- 19:49Speaker 1: couple of big plays mixed in there, so didn't turn
- 19:51Speaker 1: the ball over and possession of the ball is nine
- 19:54Speaker 1: tenths of victory, so that was a big thing and
- 19:58Speaker 1: you didn't have to watch the usual slop the Patriots
- 20:02Speaker 1: have had there. It's in the last couple of years,
- 20:05Speaker 1: the Patriot quarterback situation. It's a Rubik's cube, but you're
- 20:09Speaker 1: trying to solve it while you're blindfolded, all right, So
- 20:12Speaker 1: this does count as happy beat days. Are here again.
- 20:17Speaker 1: Happy days are here again. No more Cam Newton from
- 20:21Speaker 1: a couple of years back throwing medicine balls. You don't
- 20:24Speaker 1: have to pretend like you're interested in dog food Mac Jones.
- 20:27Speaker 1: That's what he was with the Patriots. He was dog
- 20:29Speaker 1: food and Bailey Zappy cosplay, Zappi mania. You don't have
- 20:34Speaker 1: to worry about that either. All that off the table
- 20:38Speaker 1: right there, See you later. So that's where we are.
- 20:41Speaker 1: And the Patriots are a winning team. And you know
- 20:45Speaker 1: some of the records, it's how bad they've been. This
- 20:47Speaker 1: is uncharted territory since twenty nineteen. It's how pathetic the
- 20:51Speaker 1: Patriots have been. Here that back to back wins for
- 20:54Speaker 1: the first time since twenty twenty two. That looked like
- 20:56Speaker 1: a Mike Vrabel like what he did in tennesse See,
- 20:59Speaker 1: that type of perform RAN's heavy, underdog on the road,
- 21:02Speaker 1: grinded out type of game. And that's what the Titans
- 21:06Speaker 1: did back before things got really nasty there in Tennessee
- 21:09Speaker 1: at the end. But you tighten up the AFC East
- 21:12Speaker 1: race and really again it's a two team race. The
- 21:15Speaker 1: Jets have already been eliminated, the Dolphins have already been eliminated,
- 21:19Speaker 1: and it's really just the Patriots or the only hope
- 21:22Speaker 1: to unseat the Buffalo Bills in that division and the
- 21:27Speaker 1: rebooted Patriots. Is it something? Is it going to continue? Well,
- 21:31Speaker 1: well we'll see here. But the post dynasty, the post
- 21:35Speaker 1: dynasty wasteland, all right, they were competent. It's just being
- 21:41Speaker 1: a little bit better than average is where you get
- 21:44Speaker 1: a little giddy.

- 23:36Speaker 5: Be.
- 23:37Speaker 1: And so we are back at it again, and our
- 23:41Speaker 1: lead this hour from baseball. We're gonna talk some baseball
- 23:45Speaker 1: here and oh what a scene it was, Oh what
- 23:48Speaker 1: a see. I don't know if you're watching any of this.
- 23:50Speaker 1: I know we had we had action. We had much
- 23:53Speaker 1: action going on in the NFL throughout the day. But
- 23:57Speaker 1: we also had an interesting the scene in torun the
- 24:00Speaker 1: Blue Jays and the Yankees. They were locking horns here
- 24:05Speaker 1: in a matchup that was going on. Well, NFL football
- 24:10Speaker 1: was going on. I was flipping back. We actually we
- 24:12Speaker 1: had a bunch of games going on in football and baseball,
- 24:16Speaker 1: twell two in baseball, the American League side of the bracket.
- 24:19Speaker 1: But I bring this up. We start out in Toronto
- 24:22Speaker 1: where the Blue Jays and the Yankees were going at it.
- 24:26Speaker 1: And this game was no contest out of you were
- 24:30Speaker 1: watching or not, but it was absolutely no contest, a
- 24:33Speaker 1: domination situation for the team from Canada.
- 24:38Speaker 9: All god.
- 24:42Speaker 1: And someone we had never heard of stepped up on
- 24:45Speaker 1: the mound and shoved it down. The New York Yankees
- 24:49Speaker 1: throats A rookie Trey Yes Savage set a Blue Jay
- 24:54Speaker 1: postseason record by striking out eleven in five and a
- 24:59Speaker 1: third no hit innings in Vladimir Guerrero Junior hit his
- 25:04Speaker 1: first postseason Grand Salam and the first one in team history. There,
- 25:08Speaker 1: Toronto beat the Yankees thirteen to seven, a game that
- 25:11Speaker 1: was not that close the Yankees with some stat stuffing
- 25:15Speaker 1: at the end there, and so a two nothing lead
- 25:19Speaker 1: for the team from Canada. The Yankees marry, it's not
- 25:24Speaker 1: a best of seven, it's a best of five. Someone
- 25:28Speaker 1: named Dalton varshow also had a couple of home runs
- 25:30Speaker 1: there and four extra base hits, as the Blue Jays
- 25:34Speaker 1: did it from all sides there. He even had that
- 25:36Speaker 1: cheating astro forever, a cheating astro, George Springer, who hit
- 25:42Speaker 1: a home run there as well. And so the Blue
- 25:44Speaker 1: Jays yet again a dominating performance against the New York Yankees,
- 25:50Speaker 1: and they are on the brink of advancing. They won
- 25:52Speaker 1: the game on Saturday ten to one, so if you
- 25:55Speaker 1: do the math, that's twenty three to eight advantage in
- 25:58Speaker 1: favor of the team from Canada, which leads us into
- 26:02Speaker 1: the postgame commentary of who else but Aaron Judge. As
- 26:08Speaker 1: Aaron Judge, you said, and I want to chime in
- 26:10Speaker 1: on this, and I got some things to say, and
- 26:13Speaker 1: he did, and well, but we actually have the audio.
- 26:16Speaker 1: Believe we have the audio this, yes, all right, let's
- 26:18Speaker 1: go to the audio. Tip. Here's Aaron Judge some of
- 26:20Speaker 1: his postgame comments as the New York Yankees end up
- 26:24Speaker 1: getting their face smashed in by the Toronto Blue Jays Tago. Listen.
- 26:28Speaker 10: Well, you know it's supposed to see anything's going to happen.
- 26:30Speaker 10: You know, you never know that it's going to be
- 26:32Speaker 10: a pitcher's duel till the end, or you know, offenses
- 26:35Speaker 10: are going to explode early on. So they've been able
- 26:38Speaker 10: to do that both games and kind of put us
- 26:40Speaker 10: at bay earlier when they were ever put up. You know,
- 26:42Speaker 10: six seven, eight runs, you know, first couple of innings
- 26:44Speaker 10: makes it tough to kind of climb back as an offense,
- 26:46Speaker 10: but it doesn't phaze us offensive. You know, he still
- 26:49Speaker 10: climbed back to tonight a little bit. But you know,
- 26:52Speaker 10: we got to kind of take it to them, you
- 26:54Speaker 10: know when we get back to New York, you know,
- 26:55Speaker 10: we got to be the one to score first and
- 26:57Speaker 10: kind of put the pressure on them and kind of
- 26:58Speaker 10: flip the script.
- 26:59Speaker 1: All right, So that's the commentary from Aaron Judges. The
- 27:02Speaker 1: Yankees end up on the wrong side of things. So
- 27:05Speaker 1: let us discuss the question on this one. Is the
- 27:10Speaker 1: Yankees captain Aaron Judge right when he said his comment
- 27:14Speaker 1: the money quote that's been going around, it's nothing new
- 27:16Speaker 1: for us or is this just postseason denial? All right,
- 27:21Speaker 1: that is the question. So let's tackle it this way,
- 27:25Speaker 1: all right, Aaron Judge, you have to be measured when
- 27:29Speaker 1: you're the captain of the Yankees, right the Yankees is
- 27:31Speaker 1: the New York Yankees, all this bull crap. And also
- 27:34Speaker 1: the Yankees are cooked, okay, Like there are some teams
- 27:38Speaker 1: that have fight that you know are going to come
- 27:40Speaker 1: back and you know are going to not roll over
- 27:42Speaker 1: and play dead. The problem is the Yankees. I don't
- 27:45Speaker 1: think they have it in him to play three consecutive
- 27:47Speaker 1: perfect playoff games, which is what they're going to have
- 27:50Speaker 1: to do. Even if they're at home, it doesn't matter.
- 27:52Speaker 1: You've got issues in the bullpen with Weaver. This was
- 27:57Speaker 1: a massive, a massive feet for the Yankees when you
- 28:02Speaker 1: think about the fact that you had Max Freed on
- 28:06Speaker 1: the mound, who supposedly is a big time player, a
- 28:09Speaker 1: big start member with the Atlanta Braves against the cheating
- 28:11Speaker 1: Astros back in the day, and it got completely char
- 28:18Speaker 1: broiled here. So on the Malord scale of concern for
- 28:21Speaker 1: the New York Yankees, one to ten, with ten being
- 28:24Speaker 1: planning your Bahamas vacation, I'm at a nine point oh
- 28:30Speaker 1: for the New York Yankees, A nine point zero for
- 28:33Speaker 1: the Yankees. And I don't care what Aaron Judge says,
- 28:36Speaker 1: you know, and all that stuff, and it's listen, the
- 28:39Speaker 1: Yankees are absolutely cooked here. And the fact that they
- 28:44Speaker 1: had nothing against this Trey Y Savage of the Toronto
- 28:50Speaker 1: Blue Jays is an absolute stunner. You thought, well, they're
- 28:55Speaker 1: not gonna they're not gonna fall by twelve nothing or
- 28:57Speaker 1: whatever it was. I mean, my god, pathetic. And I
- 29:01Speaker 1: don't care what Aaron Boone saying that, it doesn't matter.
- 29:02Speaker 1: Nothing's gonna change with the Yankees. Aaron Boone will still
- 29:05Speaker 1: be there. Aaron Judge, of course, will be there. They're
- 29:08Speaker 1: not gonna get rid of anybody. The Yankees could have
- 29:11Speaker 1: done this three or four years ago. They're gonna lose
- 29:13Speaker 1: this series. Toronto's gonna get to the American League Championship Series.
- 29:17Speaker 1: But nothing's gonna change. Aaron Boone will still be there.
- 29:20Speaker 1: They'll just say, well, we just the pitching fell apart
- 29:22Speaker 1: we had and we didn't have Garrett Cole all year.
- 29:24Speaker 1: They'll make a whole list of excuses, right, They'll do
- 29:28Speaker 1: all of that, and in the end, nothing will change.
- 29:31Speaker 1: The Yankees will be back and we'll have the same
- 29:33Speaker 1: core of the team will be back and they'll be like, well,
- 29:36Speaker 1: we lost one Soto, we still made the playoffs, so
- 29:38Speaker 1: it's all good there. Meanwhile, how about the situation in
- 29:42Speaker 1: Seattle as the Detroit Tigers looking to take a two
- 29:46Speaker 1: to zero series lead over the Seattle Mariners after winning
- 29:50Speaker 1: their game on Saturday, And how did this game turn out? Well, surprise, surprise, surprise.
- 29:58Speaker 1: The Mariners had a two lead against the ace of
- 30:03Speaker 1: the Detroit Tigers and then blew it and the Yeah,
- 30:07Speaker 1: the Tigers came back. The game was tied to two
- 30:10Speaker 1: and j Rod Julio Rodriguez with a tie breaking ribby
- 30:15Speaker 1: double for the Seattle Mirrors in the eighth inning. The
- 30:18Speaker 1: crowd goes wild the Mariners, who that run the runner
- 30:23Speaker 1: ahead of Rodriguez. The big Dumper got on base there
- 30:25Speaker 1: and the Tigers go down and the Mariners went three
- 30:29Speaker 1: to two the finals, So that means the series is
- 30:31Speaker 1: tied up at one to one. As the Mariners offense
- 30:35Speaker 1: coming to life, cal Raley is he gonna win the
- 30:36Speaker 1: American League VP? Probably not because of the New York bias,
- 30:39Speaker 1: although he should. Cal Raley with the double and we
- 30:43Speaker 1: won out. And then shortly after that Julio Rodriguez doubling
- 30:47Speaker 1: home Raleigh and the Mariners go up and they win
- 30:50Speaker 1: the game. And so now that series is tied up
- 30:53Speaker 1: at one to one. The better story, though, is in
- 30:56Speaker 1: the losing locker room. So let us discuss the question
- 31:00Speaker 1: on this one. The Tigers starting pitcher this game was
- 31:05Speaker 1: their the reigning Cy Young winner and the greatest pitcher
- 31:09Speaker 1: the Tigers have had since what Verlander or Jack Morris,
- 31:14Speaker 1: Ben's how far back you want to go? But the
- 31:17Speaker 1: Tigers lose this game, even though by all accounts their
- 31:21Speaker 1: ace pitched pretty well. So how big a blow? A
- 31:24Speaker 1: body blow? Body blow? Body blow? Is this for the
- 31:28Speaker 1: Tigers to lose with Trek Scoobel on the mound in
- 31:32Speaker 1: game number two of the Alds. So on this one,
- 31:36Speaker 1: it is massive, right, This is the size of the
- 31:39Speaker 1: mighty Pacific Ocean. Is what it is here? You just
- 31:43Speaker 1: expect it's you know what this is. It is a
- 31:46Speaker 1: rotisserie cooker on a late night infomercial. When you start,
- 31:51Speaker 1: if you're the Tigers, you send Terrek Scoubel to the mound.
- 31:54Speaker 1: It is a set it and forget it situation, the
- 31:58Speaker 1: late great Ron Pope, the king of the infomercial back
- 32:01Speaker 1: in the day. But it is a set it and
- 32:03Speaker 1: forget it situation. You just assume you're going to win
- 32:06Speaker 1: the game because this guy is one of the top
- 32:08Speaker 1: three or four pitchers in baseball, if not just top
- 32:10Speaker 1: two in all of Major League Baseball. And obviously they
- 32:14Speaker 1: were in position the marriage to win the game to
- 32:16Speaker 1: nothing as Hori Polanko hit a couple of home runs
- 32:20Speaker 1: off of Terrek Scuoble. Play the lottery if you're the
- 32:24Speaker 1: Seattle Mariners. But the fact that the Mariners came back
- 32:28Speaker 1: and I technically Schooble didn't lose the game, finning in
- 32:31Speaker 1: the bullpen lost the game. So you say, well, technically
- 32:33Speaker 1: the Tigers did not lose with Trek Scuball on the mound. However,
- 32:37Speaker 1: this was his day. It's supposed to be guaranteed win day. Again,
- 32:41Speaker 1: set it and forget it, the Rotisseriy thing, and that
- 32:44Speaker 1: did not happen for the Detroit Tigers. And so this
- 32:47Speaker 1: series is a total toss up. And you certainly like
- 32:50Speaker 1: the Mariners in Game three, mainly because it's a bet
- 32:53Speaker 1: against Flaherty, who's going to pitch that game and has
- 32:58Speaker 1: been not the most con assistant starter for the Detroit
- 33:03Speaker 1: You talk about hot and col he's like a yo yo,
- 33:04Speaker 1: he's up and down Jack Flaherty, but he'll he'll be
- 33:06Speaker 1: on the mound there in that game coming up here
- 33:10Speaker 1: on I think that's on Tuesday, travel Day on Monday,
- 33:13Speaker 1: so we'll play on Tuesday. And I did see that
- 33:16Speaker 1: Horey Polanco the fourth Mariner player with multi home well
- 33:20Speaker 1: multi homerun game in the postseason. The only other ones
- 33:23Speaker 1: to do it Ken Grivy Junior, Edgar Martinez, and Jay Buhner.
- 33:27Speaker 1: They all did it way back in nineteen ninety five,
- 33:30Speaker 1: so it's been thirty years since the last time that happened. Now. Meanwhile,
- 33:36Speaker 1: moving on from that interesting story in the NFL, I
- 33:40Speaker 1: want to go back to the NFL for a second.
- 33:42Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins, a bad team taking on a worst team,
- 33:46Speaker 1: at least in theory a worst team, the Carolina Panthers.
- 33:50Speaker 1: So I don't know if you were watching this game,
- 33:51Speaker 1: probably not. It was regional covers. You had to be
- 33:54Speaker 1: flipping over to the game to watch it. You had
- 33:56Speaker 1: to go out of your way to watch it. So
- 33:58Speaker 1: I bring this up because in the particular game, the
- 34:02Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins jumped out to a seventeen to nothing lead,
- 34:06Speaker 1: a seventeen to nothing lead over the team from Carolina,
- 34:10Speaker 1: who has had all kinds of issues they can't get
- 34:13Speaker 1: out of their own way. And what happens the rest
- 34:16Speaker 1: of the game, Well, I'll tell you what happened. The
- 34:19Speaker 1: team from Carolina from Charlotte scored twenty seven points the
- 34:26Speaker 1: rest of the game. The Dolphins only got one touchdown,
- 34:30Speaker 1: and so Carolina gets their second win of the year,
- 34:33Speaker 1: and the Dolphins dropped a one in four. They bought
- 34:36Speaker 1: a seventeen to nothing lead against one of the worst
- 34:38Speaker 1: teams in the NFL, the Carolina Panthers. Because the Dolphins
- 34:42Speaker 1: also one of the worst teams. Let's hear from the
- 34:44Speaker 1: head coach of the team from Miami. Miami, Miami, you
- 34:48Speaker 1: know we love the goof on Sean McDermott or not
- 34:50Speaker 1: Sean McDermott. Mike McDaniel, got my coaches like the goof
- 34:54Speaker 1: on mixed up. But here's the Dolphins head coach commenting
- 34:57Speaker 1: postgame after Miami loses yet again, and it sounds like
- 35:02Speaker 1: he's fit to be tied. Here's the Dolphins head coach
- 35:05Speaker 1: Mike McDaniel takes.
- 35:06Speaker 11: There's no if ans or butts about it. You don't
- 35:10Speaker 11: give up that many line of scrimmage yards without or
- 35:15Speaker 11: unless you're uncoordinated in certain ways. It just it can't
- 35:21Speaker 11: continue to go on like this, and it's already gone
- 35:23Speaker 11: on too long.
- 35:24Speaker 1: Yeah, the Dolphins had the worst run defense in the NFL.
- 35:27Speaker 1: We handicapped this game on benny versus the penny. Did
- 35:29Speaker 1: not see a way that Carolina could take advantage of that.
- 35:32Speaker 1: I had no idea that Rico Dowdell would play like
- 35:35Speaker 1: he's back in college. Holy the Carolina running back had
- 35:40Speaker 1: two hundred and six yards, averaged nine yards per carry,
- 35:45Speaker 1: nine yards. They had more yards on the ground than
- 35:48Speaker 1: they did passing the ball as the quarterback continues to
- 35:52Speaker 1: suck in Carolina. But it doesn't matter. So the Panthers
- 35:55Speaker 1: are two and three on the year that Dolphins dropped
- 35:57Speaker 1: to one and four, and to a tongue of Bylawa,
- 36:00Speaker 1: you look at the.
- 36:00Speaker 12: Stat lines, Well, you had a good game. I don't
- 36:02Speaker 12: know what you're talking about. He played well, he played great,
- 36:05Speaker 12: you know, Okay, well not well enough. The Dolphins needed more.
- 36:10Speaker 12: You cannot seventeen point lead against one of the worst
- 36:13Speaker 12: teams in the NFL.
- 36:14Speaker 1: That is an embarrassment, in absolute embarrassment for the Dolphins
- 36:19Speaker 1: to lose that game, and they're gonna blow that whole
- 36:23Speaker 1: thing up at the end of the year. Tyreek Hill,
- 36:25Speaker 1: he'll be gone. He's not gonna come back and play
- 36:27Speaker 1: it again. For the Dolphins and Tua. Are they gonna
- 36:30Speaker 1: be able to get out of that contract. The language
- 36:32Speaker 1: on that not particularly great. But they'll have a new
- 36:34Speaker 1: coaching staff there. They'll have a new head coach, we'll
- 36:37Speaker 1: have a new GM. It's all going to go away.
- 36:40Speaker 1: All of it's going They're gonna have new people there
- 36:42Speaker 1: and everyone will be woozy in Miami. And of course
- 36:45Speaker 1: they'll still stink, but they'll have at least a different
- 36:47Speaker 1: kind of stank in Miami because someone else will be
- 36:51Speaker 1: running the show there. But what a what a horrific
- 36:55Speaker 1: day that one. I mean, man, they were the slight favorite,
- 36:58Speaker 1: but to give up twenty seven points and now wasn't
- 37:02Speaker 1: all unanswered because the Dolphins did score late, but it
- 37:06Speaker 1: was twenty unanswered points. And then the Dolphins got a
- 37:10Speaker 1: touchdown pass from Tua, and then the Carolina came back
- 37:14Speaker 1: and they got a late touchdown that was the difference
- 37:17Speaker 1: in the game. Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox

- 39:03Speaker 9: and they actually have the best point differential in all
- 39:05Speaker 9: of the NFL at plus seventy four. Do you think
- 39:07Speaker 9: it's the time we start taking them seriously?
- 39:08Speaker 1: No?
- 39:09Speaker 8: They the Raiders gave him like twenty four points. Just
- 39:12Speaker 8: handed a gino Smith here score hole o leole, No listen,

- 39:25Speaker 1: I don't buy it. I saw him in person. I
- 39:27Speaker 1: wasn't overly impressed with the Colts against the Rams. They

- 39:40Speaker 9: four points over previously winless in le Bruins, and they lost.
- 39:45Speaker 1: No, I didn't just lose Ben James.
- 39:49Speaker 9: Franklin is signed through the twenty thirty one season, but
- 39:53Speaker 9: do you think his job is in peril?
- 39:55Speaker 1: Well, he's got a giant buyout. That's the problem. I
- 39:58Speaker 1: don't know the boosters. I guess got a lot of money,
- 40:00Speaker 1: but other people they need somebody with a big, big
- 40:03Speaker 1: check to cut it. If they can find the right booster,
- 40:06Speaker 1: he's out. I mean there, I guarantee there's phone calls
- 40:09Speaker 1: going around. We got to get rid of this guy now.
- 40:11Speaker 1: Whether they can find the money, that's the bomb. Next.
- 40:14Speaker 9: Earlier in the weekend, it was reported that the Eagles
- 40:16Speaker 9: have absolutely no plans on trading AJ Brown After their
- 40:20Speaker 9: loss against the Broncos.
