- 0:04The New York Giants have fired head coach Brian Dayball after
- 0:08yet another pathetic late game collapse and yet another lost
- 0:12season for Big Blue. What started off so promising
- 0:15with a playoff run out of nowhere in his first year was
- 0:18only a mirage as the Giants never reached 500 again under
- 0:22the former Belichick assistant. We know it's not the playoffs,

- 3:52Executive producer Mr. Aaron Fish Fishman and the one on only
- 3:57Mr. Tommy Poops. Or we can call him the scooper
- 4:01or the scooper pooper, whatever you want to call him.
- 4:03He is on the board. As always, Mr. Board OPS man,
- 4:06it's been a crazy, crazy week and weekend for me.
- 4:10I, I would say it was probably very unlucky and I, I don't know
- 4:15what luck is and I don't believe in luck, but if there's anything
- 4:20that we can commit to, it's if there is luck.
- 4:24I am probably the most unlucky person, so I don't want to get
- 4:29into it. But anybody that's listening
- 4:31that knows me and knows what happened over the last, I don't
- 4:35know, 124 hours, I would say 200 hours if I could, but it hasn't
- 4:43been good. And yeah, so I was trying to
- 4:47enjoy the weekend. I got a chance to watch The Jets
- 4:50absolutely up and win a game. But I'm not going to hate
- 4:53because Aaron Glenn has proven himself once again to be a
- 4:57competent coach because now the players are actually playing for
- 5:00him. So maybe the bad seeds in the
- 5:02locker room, the Quinn Williams or I don't know, Sauz Garner,
- 5:07who didn't really look good in his first game as in
- 5:09Indianapolis Colt, Maybe they were the reason why this team
- 5:13were not playing at the top level that we thought they were
- 5:15going to be. That's a whole nother story.
- 5:18Jabba, what's up, man? Nada, just enjoying the frigid
- 5:22cold here. We're we're going to get the
- 5:23Jekyll and Hyde of. Nebraska.
- 5:26Weather here again we. It was. 18 this morning and
- 5:30we're going to be up to we got up to about 28 today and then by
- 5:34the end of the week we'll be in the 70s.
- 5:36So my skin hates me right now. It literally just like the back
- 5:40and forth just crushes my beard in my face.
- 5:43But. You know we're pulling through.
- 5:45Well, they said we're going to get about 40° weather and
- 5:48tomorrow probably around night time, it'll be in the 20s.
- 5:51That's what I'm hearing here in Long Island.
- 5:54And it's, I wouldn't say it's Jekyll and Hyde over here, but I
- 5:57will say that we have rain today when it was sunny for a little,
- 6:01a little bit, the clouds went up.
- 6:03Then it started pouring and then it just kept on pouring.
- 6:06And what I hate about this time is the leaves, because if it
- 6:10rains and the leaves are falling, it sticks to your car
- 6:14and leaves the leave. I don't even know what it is.
- 6:17The outline of the leaf like sticks to your car.
- 6:19And then when you take the leaf off, you have to go for a car
- 6:22wash because it ruins the the paint it it's, it's horrible.
- 6:26All the dirt and stuff from the leaves.
- 6:27Yeah it yeah see you guys don't get the Jekyll and Hyde us is
- 6:30like I'll go to the gym in the morning right be freezing and
- 6:34then mid afternoon you kind of you're not as layered up and
- 6:36then if you go out like when it's 6570 you're like in two or
- 6:40three different outfits. It's just like.
- 6:42But. We don't get that when it's
- 6:45cold, it's cold. When it's warm it's hot, and
- 6:48when it's hot it's scorchering. So Long Island, New York, it,
- 6:52the weather doesn't make any sense.
- 6:54That's why I can't stand it. But there's nothing like Long
- 6:58Island because of, I guess, the crazy, ridiculous people that
- 7:02absolutely do not know how to drive.
- 7:04And sometimes I wonder if I'm going to die half the time.
- 7:06But nevertheless, the weather really is interesting.
- 7:12And like I said, the holidays are right around the corner.
- 7:15Yeah, Thanksgiving, which is a couple of weeks away, which I'm
- 7:19excited for. I like Thanksgiving because it
- 7:21sets up obviously, Christmas and New Year's.
- 7:24The one thing I hate more than anything is listening to
- 7:27Christmas music right now. I have no idea.
- 7:31What's, what's your what's your time frame on Christmas music?
- 7:34Because. That's right after Thanksgiving.
- 7:36Right after Thanksgiving. It shouldn't be before
- 7:38Thanksgiving, but. Obviously I don't, I don't
- 7:41celebrate Thanksgiving as a native.
- 7:42So like ours is legitimately like right now, like you'll go
- 7:48into some stores and it is literally all over the speakers.
- 7:51Like, I mean, it's, it's nuts. I mean, it's, you see Christmas
- 7:56decorations and it's crazy because like usually it's after
- 7:59the holiday that like decorations go on sale, right?
- 8:03I was walking I think like Walmart or something like that
- 8:06and they were like 40% off of Christmas decorations.
- 8:08I was like, isn't, isn't that little backwards?
- 8:11But hey, they're getting people in the, in the spirit, I guess
- 8:14the, the 40% off to get them. I actually bought a couple, like
- 8:17nice little decorative bowls to put candy and stuff in for when
- 8:20Carter gets home. Well, I will say this, I, I, I
- 8:24like Christmas. I like seeing the kids enjoy the
- 8:27presents and and the trees and putting the tree up.
- 8:30Brittany loves the tree, so I like she makes me put up the
- 8:34tree and decorate it. I'm actually pretty good at it.
- 8:36You ever? Had a white Christmas?
- 8:40Here in in long, Absolutely. I've had, I've had one in my
- 8:44life. In 40 years, I've had one years
- 8:46ago. I think it was five years ago.
- 8:48Yeah, we've had a couple of white Christmases, not like
- 8:51heavy, heavy snow, but we've had white Christmases.
- 8:54But I I don't think we're going to have one this year.
- 8:56I don't think we get snow until probably around January.
- 8:58Did you see what happened to Chicago and what you're hearing
- 9:01Chicago's getting? Chicago's supposed to get 12 to
- 9:0314 inches. I, I it's crazy what I'm hearing
- 9:06right now with the storms and the winter storms.
- 9:09Buffalo's going to be hit, so I'm interested to see what's
- 9:12going to happen in the next couple of days.
- 9:14But Long Island will not see snow probably until the new
- 9:18year. And I will say this, anybody
- 9:21that sits here and tells me they enjoy the holidays, I don't
- 9:25because I'm absolutely broke after the holidays.
- 9:27So it's never fun when you know that you have money and it's
- 9:31completely gone after that and when you have a girl that wants
- 9:35everything and she don't. And the one thing I can tell you
- 9:37about Brittany is she's not going to dig into your pockets.
- 9:40She'll do it for herself just like I would.
- 9:43You have to guess what she she wants.
- 9:46And you can't pick out clothes for her because she's very
- 9:49particular on how it sits on her body and her sneakers.
- 9:53She says she's an 8 1/2, but she's better off with a nine.
- 9:57So if I get her a nine, it's too big in her eyes, and if it's an
- 10:018 1/2, it's too small. So what is it?
- 10:04You can never guess what her sneaker size is.
- 10:06So it's horrible shopping for her.
- 10:08And last year I spent the six hundred $650 on a Michael Kors.
- 10:14I think it was a yeah, it was a coat.
- 10:15I $650 Michael Michael Kors coat.
- 10:18And I bought her a $600.00 bag Michael Kors bag.
- 10:22She uses the bag here and there because she likes to just look
- 10:25at it and stare at it. The.
- 10:28Is it? Is it a special occasion purse?
- 10:31Yeah, I get no, she's got a lot of purse.
- 10:33I I've spent a lot of money on her purses over the years.
- 10:36I've always gotten her nice purses.
- 10:37But what really bothers me is that coat, $650 coat, which she
- 10:42hasn't even taken the tags off of it.
- 10:43And because it doesn't fit her, because she lost like 40 lbs,
- 10:47she's like, well, I'm not going to wear it.
- 10:49And I said, what are you going to do with it?
- 10:51And she says, I don't know, maybe I'll get a tailored, I'll
- 10:54just give it to somebody. I said, you're going to give a
- 10:56$650 coat that I bought to somebody.
- 10:59That's nice, real nice. So I've been fighting with her
- 11:02over the last, I would say week about her getting a tailored or
- 11:05something or I'll do it and that'll be a part of her
- 11:08Christmas gift. That's a double gift, like you
- 11:12got it already and now you're getting it to fit her again.
- 11:14So I'll do it for free. I'll do it for free.
- 11:17She just has to give me the damn code.
- 11:19So I've been dealing with this, so I'm sorry.
- 11:23How are you going to alter it? No, I'll bring it to an.
- 11:25I'll bring it to. Oh yeah, I thought.
- 11:27I thought you said you'd do it for free.
- 11:29No, my nephew, not like. That actually my nephew who's
- 11:32like 13 years old, he's a really good, he's really good at
- 11:36selling. I could go to him, but I, I, I'd
- 11:39rather go to a professional, you know, no offense to my nephew.
- 11:41I'd rather. Go to professional not giving
- 11:43him any credit. No, I'm giving him credit.
- 11:45I just, I don't want to hear from her that he made a mistake.
- 11:48So she's really, really bad. She's very particular on her
- 11:52stuff. So I don't want to get myself
- 11:53into trouble because then we'll have Nathan say I would Brittany
- 11:56also or some crap like that. You know, Nathan has his own,
- 12:00you know, is spunk to it. Anyways, a little bit later in
- 12:03the show at 8:45, we will be talking to pop singer and
- 12:06national anthem singer Allie Burke will be joining us.
- 12:09Allie's been on her show before. She will be singing the national
- 12:12anthem for the Bills game November 16th versus the Bucks.
- 12:17So that that's fun and I'm sure Allie's excited.
- 12:20I know she's a big, huge Josh Allen fan so and we've had her
- 12:25father on the show. He's a fan of the show and the
- 12:28friend of the show so I'm sure any his Otani take so always be
- 12:33remembered deep inside my brain. As a matter of fact, I wrote a
- 12:36story which is now posted on our social media about the Class A
- 12:42and Ortiz comparable to the Otani situation with the betting
- 12:48scandal. It's very, very funny.
- 12:50Go check it out on our website. I guarantee you'll be laughing
- 12:53at it. I put it together it, I started
- 12:56it last night. I was done with it.
- 12:58So I go, well, I was dealing with that at my headquarters, at
- 13:00my office building, but I, I took me a couple hours, but I
- 13:03put it together. It's very, very funny.
- 13:05So, and I'm I'm sure Jabba won't think it's funny because he's an
- 13:08Otani lover, but that's a whole nother story.
- 13:11ESP NS Adam Schefner reports that the New York Giants have
- 13:16fired head coach Brian Dabel after 3 1/2 seasons with the
- 13:20team. This came after the Giants blew
- 13:22another double digit lead with under 4 minutes to go against
- 13:27the Bears on Sunday, the 4th double digit lead they have
- 13:31blown this season, all on the road.
- 13:35After winning nine games and making the playoffs in Gables
- 13:38first season in 2022, the Giants have only won 11 games since,
- 13:44second worst in the NFL behind only the Titans.
- 13:48The Giants went two and eight under Gable this season and he
- 13:52finished 20 and 40 and one as the Giants head coach.
- 13:57His 336 win percentage is bad enough for 18th worse all time
- 14:04for coaches who coach 50 games or more. 4 spots worse than Jets
- 14:08legend AK Bambi Sala at 22. Reports say that Jackson Dart
- 14:17being given designed runs and Dart getting concussed in the
- 14:22game was the last straw for Giants owner John Mayra.
- 14:27But many off the field incidents added up over the years with
- 14:32Gable, from the lack of player development to his feuds with
- 14:37former defensive coordinator Wink Martindale to this year
- 14:41being fine for going into to the blue medical tent, which is
- 14:45against the rules to try to get Dart back on the field.
- 14:50Joe Shane keeps his job as the GM for now and offensive
- 14:55coordinator Mike Kafka will take over as interim head coach.
- 15:00Now, Mike Kafka has been wanting this opportunity for the last
- 15:05three seasons. I mean, three seasons because he
- 15:07entered, he interviewed for the job.
- 15:10He wanted the job, but the Giants decided to go with Gable
- 15:14with his his success under the the Buffalo Bills.
- 15:18And he might go, he might go back to the Buffalo Bills after
- 15:21this season because Buffalo has Brady and he will be up for a
- 15:24coaching job possibly. We'll see how this offense ends
- 15:28at the end of the season. But I do believe Brian Gables, a
- 15:31great offensive coordinator, there's no question, very cocky,
- 15:35very confident guy. Don't know him personally, never
- 15:38met him. I know Fitch met him, I know
- 15:41Nathan has met him. I know a lot of people have met
- 15:43this guy. Lost a lot of weight, loves
- 15:45wearing his Nike Jordan sneakers on the sidelines and looking
- 15:49pretty now for his lady. The New York Giants have not
- 15:54played good football and I wouldn't blame just his
- 15:58coaching, lack of really talent around them.
- 16:01And you look at, I blame Joe Shane on that.
- 16:04You have Darry Slayton, who's your number one guy.
- 16:07It seems like Robinson looks like he's a player, but he's too
- 16:10small to be a number one. I don't know if he's a bona fide
- 16:13#2 he's a slot guy. So with the lack of offensive
- 16:17weapons that they have had over the last couple of years and
- 16:21deciding to part ways with Saquon, Saquon Barkley and then
- 16:25Cam Scataboo looking like he was, I don't know, a Battingham
- 16:30Ram or who looked like he was going to be a player and then
- 16:32goes down the way he did early this season.
- 16:36I you wonder where are the Giants when it comes to their
- 16:40future? You look at this offensive line,
- 16:43there's a lot of questions to it.
- 16:45Is Thomas going to be there for the long haul?
- 16:47The guy can't stay healthy. And then you'll look at some of
- 16:51the other guys on this line that we've we've spoken about.
- 16:55I mean, Neil, Evan Neil, who's a first round talent in the top 10
- 16:58is no longer in the starting lineup.
- 17:01We don't even know if he's a part of this roster anymore.
- 17:04You have Thibodeau, who was a first round talent, top ten pick
- 17:09in the same draft. Is he really going to make this
- 17:12team in this roster next year? Do they give him an extension?
- 17:15And the answer would probably be no.
- 17:19You look at the offensive weapons that they have provided
- 17:23under Dabel. I mean, it's very scarce or as
- 17:28anybody would say in different parts of the country, scarce.
- 17:32There is nothing that sticks out to me with the accomplishment
- 17:37except the first year of the head coach that Dabel was the
- 17:41guy. Now, there are a few guys that I
- 17:45can tell you would be a slam dunk for the New York Giants.
- 17:48Slam dunk. And one of them used to coach
- 17:51the Dallas Cowboys and the Green Bay Packers.
- 17:54And if I were the Giants, I'd be making a call to him right now.
- 17:59But I'll get into that in just a few moments.
- 18:02The fact here is this is an organization that has been known
- 18:07to win. They have won four Super Bowls
- 18:11and remember their accomplishments with under two
- 18:14of the greatest coaches of all times, Bill Parcells and Tom
- 18:17Coughlin. These guys were successful
- 18:20because of the way they coached, the way they pushed their
- 18:24players. They stood by their beliefs.
- 18:28Gabel tried to follow that belief and the players were not
- 18:33following him. I don't believe the coaches
- 18:36trusted him and I don't think the players trusted him.
- 18:39After the first season of Giants football with him under the
- 18:43helm, you look at the coaching staff, Wink Martindale.
- 18:47Wink Martindale couldn't stand him and this is a guy that was
- 18:52good friends with Dabel and that's why Wink was hired by
- 18:55Dabel to be his defensive coordinator because they were so
- 18:58close and so tight. Their families were so tight and
- 19:02Wink wanted to get far, far away from Dabel.
- 19:05After what, 1 1/2 seasons? Kafka, there's been back and
- 19:09forth banter that him and Mike Kafka didn't like each other and
- 19:13the only reason why Kafka has a job is because John Mayra likes
- 19:17Mike Kafka and that's why he kept his job because I believe
- 19:22Gable wanted to get rid of him in the offseason this past year.
- 19:27I don't know what is there to look forward to with this team
- 19:32in this roster. Now.
- 19:33Dexter Lawrence might not be 100% healthy.
- 19:37He got paid a lot of money about a year and a half ago.
- 19:39I still think Dexter Lawrence has a lot left in him.
- 19:42I think they're they're young first round rookie from Penn
- 19:47State. Looks like he's special.
- 19:49There's no question that he is, but I question their secondary.
- 19:54I question their offense stability.
- 19:57They have no offensive line to really look forward to next
- 20:00year. And Jackson Dart, who I think
- 20:02could be the future of this organization, only time will
- 20:06tell, is been running for his dear life.
- 20:09Why? Because Gable has thrown him out
- 20:12there to really be killed. There is nobody protecting this
- 20:17kid. He's running right, he's running
- 20:19left, he's scrambling, trying to figure out who he's going to
- 20:22throw to. Nobody is open.
- 20:24And then he's running up the gut, running to the side,
- 20:27getting killed, getting smacked by defensive lineman over £350.
- 20:32Eventually this kids going to go down, He's not going to get back
- 20:35up. And Eli made an interesting
- 20:39statement recently on his, what do they call it, the Manning
- 20:43cast. He said something about Jackson
- 20:46Dart because he likes Jackson Dart played in the same school
- 20:50as him in college. So he an Ole Miss.
- 20:53He he, he roots him on and he, he believed in Jackson Dart when
- 20:57the Giants drafted him. He said that if Dabel doesn't
- 21:01clean up his offensive stability at the helm, this kids going to
- 21:08be dead by the year by year 2. And now he's getting fired.
- 21:13I I wonder if you're a giant fan, what is the future of this
- 21:20team if it isn't Jackson dart? I mean, seriously, think about
- 21:24it. If you look at this roster right
- 21:26now and Abdul Carter special, he is and and I think Dexter
- 21:33Lawrence has a lot left in him. I don't, I don't care what he
- 21:35and Burns, he's expected, but he's had a great season.
- 21:39He's going to be an all pro player.
- 21:41But how many years does Burns have?
- 21:42He's 27. I think he's 27 years old.
- 21:45How many years does this guy have it at the top of his game?
- 21:48Maybe 2. Because linebackers usually
- 21:50start to, you know, lose their their athletic ability at the
- 21:55age of 2930. They're not the same.
- 21:58They're not as fast, they're not as athletic after the age of 29.
- 22:05So how many years does Burns have left as a an elite player?
- 22:09So you're, you're going to depend on two players that you
- 22:11have maybe 3 and and you hope Scataboo comes back and he's
- 22:15he's a good #2 maybe a number one in the future.
- 22:19There is nothing Thomas, you can't, you can't, you can't
- 22:22believe he's going to stay healthy.
- 22:24I mean, the guy hasn't stayed healthy since he's come into the
- 22:27league. So where do they go and what do
- 22:31they do? And my answer to that is very
- 22:34simple. You have to bring in a veteran
- 22:37coach that you're going to be able to build offensively with.
- 22:43With Jackson Dart. You need a good, offensively
- 22:48minded, offensive minded coach that has been in the NFC, has
- 22:53been successful in the NFC for a significant amount of time, even
- 22:57a Super Bowl championship. You know what I'm speaking
- 23:01about? McCarthy.
- 23:02That's right, Mike McCarthy is the guy.
- 23:07If you're a giant fan, Mike McCarthy is a slam dunk.
- 23:12You cannot look and bring in a rookie coach.
- 23:15Once again. The Jets have done it for years,
- 23:19the Browns have done it for years, and these teams are
- 23:24unsuccessful. Miami has done it for years.
- 23:27The Giants, with their success, they have done well when
- 23:31bringing in veteran guys, guys that have been successful in
- 23:37their division or their conference.
- 23:41And I believe Mike McCarthy is an absolute slam dunk guy and
- 23:46also a guy that understands how to play in the NFC East.
- 23:50Why? Because he was successful in the
- 23:52NFC East with the Dallas Cowboys.
- 23:55Think about it, the Cowboys success when he was there, I
- 24:00think it was five seasons with 10 or more wins.
- 24:03Think about that. The Giants haven't won 50 games
- 24:08in, I don't know, 7-8 years. This guy's won 50 games in five
- 24:14years, maybe even less. You need a guy that's going to
- 24:19help this kid develop and I believe the way he can run his
- 24:24offense and you need to figure out what his strengths are in
- 24:28the pocket and how you can keep him safe in the pocket instead
- 24:32of running out of it. So he gets killed and and to me,
- 24:35the West Coast offense is to me the most important when it comes
- 24:41to Jackson darts success for his future.
- 24:45Think about it. Aaron Rodgers played in Mike
- 24:48McCarthy's offense. Now when Aaron Rodgers came into
- 24:52the league, he was a mobile quarterback and he control he
- 24:55was he was a great thrower, obviously great arm, but he was
- 24:58one of the best at figuring out when to run, move inside and out
- 25:01of the pocket, step into the pocket or even reverse.
- 25:05Do the things that you want your quarter ball quarterback to do
- 25:08with mobility. Jackson darts obviously a lot
- 25:12more athletic, lot more mobility.
- 25:16I, and I'm not saying that he has Aaron Rodgers, his arm
- 25:19strength, but what I can tell you is his ability to figure out
- 25:25and hold on to the ball as long as he does in the pocket and
- 25:28make plays the way he does is a perfect fit in the West Coast
- 25:32offense. It's perfect.
- 25:34And again, the what Mike McCarthy does so very well is
- 25:38make sure that it keeps his quarterback out of harm's way.
- 25:42Say whatever you want about Dak Prescott, Dak Prescott, besides
- 25:46the injury, the, the bad injury he had and, and again, Dak
- 25:50Prescott decided to move outside of the pocket when his leg got
- 25:55bent, you know, bent back the way he did.
- 25:59That wasn't Mike McCarthy's offense.
- 26:00That was Dak Prescott deciding to move outside of the pocket
- 26:04when he should have stayed in the pocket.
- 26:06Mike McCarthy is the perfect fit for the New York Giants.
- 26:10He is the perfect John Mara. I'm giving you a tip, John.
- 26:13If you're listening to the show right now, which you probably
- 26:15not, you should be reaching out to the agent of Mike McCarthy
- 26:21right now as we speak because to me, there is nobody else out
- 26:25there that I would pick to be my next head coach.
- 26:28Nobody. You need to bring in a veteran.
- 26:31There is no way this team's success is going to come back
- 26:35the way it did with Tom Coughlin and Bill Parcells.
- 26:38Look at the guys that have they've been successful over the
- 26:41last 30 years. Bill Parcells, a guy that wasn't
- 26:44a rookie head coach that understands how he wants to run
- 26:48his his offense and his defense. Then you had obviously now I
- 26:52know a lot of people are going to start to bring out Bill
- 26:54Belichick. I know Bill Belichick's name is
- 26:56going to be brought up probably in the next couple of weeks.
- 26:59Why? Because he's not doing so well
- 27:01in North Carolina. And this guy's been successful
- 27:05over there with New England and he's he loves the Giants
- 27:08organization. As he's come out and said it,
- 27:10one of his long lasting dreams was to coach the New York
- 27:14Giants. So maybe you'll hear Bill
- 27:16Belichick's name being brought up.
- 27:18To me, the guy is Mike McCarthy. And I think that if you're a
- 27:24Giant fan and you're sitting here right now and you're
- 27:27wondering what makes more sense going into the offseason,
- 27:30because the Giants are not going to have as much money as they
- 27:36would have had if they decided this offseason not to spend as
- 27:41much as they did. Now.
- 27:44Again, the Giants are going to have to figure out if Neighbors
- 27:49is going to be healthy next year because Neighbors might not be
- 27:52back until mid season. That's the question.
- 27:55That's the interesting thing. When is Neighbors going to come
- 27:58back? Is he going to start the season
- 28:00on the IL or what? And that's probably what's going
- 28:03to happen because he I think he tore his, it tore his ACL, right
- 28:07Speedy. So he's going to be out until
- 28:09mid season. So what do you have to do in the
- 28:12offseason to bring in another guy, a number one guy?
- 28:15You're going to have to decide what you're doing.
- 28:17Robinson. Maybe you don't bring Robertson
- 28:18back and then you go after two. If the Giants believe there are
- 28:21two guys out there that they can add in the offseason where there
- 28:26he's affordable or they're affordable, that's where the
- 28:29Giants and but they don't do anything until they find out and
- 28:32figure out who their next head coach is.
- 28:33And I'm going to tell you this right now, Joe Shane better not
- 28:37go to the Buffalo Bills and pick his next coach.
- 28:40He better not do that. He better not go to it and bring
- 28:43Brady in or any of those guys. He needs to bring in a veteran
- 28:47guy that makes a lot of sense for this team in this roster
- 28:51because there's a lot of questions on what they need to
- 28:54do to fix up the offensive part of their game.
- 28:57They have no offensive on. They got one guy, Schmitz.
- 29:00He's not the guy. He is not the future center of
- 29:03this team. Maybe you move from the guard.
- 29:05Neil is going to be gone. This this offensive line, which
- 29:08is a bunch of has beens guys that you don't want to be a part
- 29:12of your roster. They need to move on from.
- 29:15There's a lot of clean up at Runyon.
- 29:17Yes, they brought in Runyon last year as well.
- 29:20I'm, I'm reading what Fish said. I don't know if Runyon is that
- 29:24good. And I think the Giants overspent
- 29:26for him. Runyon did come from the Green
- 29:28Bay Packers, so maybe he knows that kind of offense.
- 29:31I I'm sure he understands how to run the West Coast offense.
- 29:34But I think that the Giants, if there's only one guy for this
- 29:38job, there's nobody else. And I don't want to hear about a
- 29:41college coach. I don't want to hear about
- 29:43something, one of these up and coming like Kingsbury or Clint,
- 29:47whatever his name is. Kingsbury.
- 29:48All these guys that I'm hearing names that the Giants are
- 29:51bringing up or some of the different writers that I've read
- 29:54over the last, I don't know, 10 hours of guys that could be
- 29:58interested in this job. You bring in a veteran guy that
- 30:02knows how to win in the NFC. Yeah, it's shifted back kind of
- 30:07when you look at the coaching trends of kind of 2018 to now.
- 30:11And I think that Jim Harbaugh and Sean Payton, the last two
- 30:15off seasons, those kinds of trends grown with a rookie
- 30:17quarterback are helping out a young quarterback like Herbert,
- 30:20rookie quarterback like Nick's with Sean Payton, kind of
- 30:22shifted back to change. Those two teams are 8 and two
- 30:25and seven and three right now. And it's shifted away from the
- 30:28guys that are these young hotshot candidates that kind of
- 30:31fall off the next year. When you look at somebody like
- 30:33Bobby Slow with the Texas, everybody thought, oh, is he
- 30:35going to get another head coaching job because of the
- 30:37transformation Houston had with CJ Stroud?
- 30:39Then he gets fired the next year.
- 30:41That kind of trend does not help A-Team like the Giants, whose
- 30:44rosters are pretty far behind. You can get away with it if
- 30:46you're a team like the Seahawks. The Seahawks hired A
- 30:49inexperienced head coach, a guy that was barely a defensive
- 30:52coordinator in the NFL. He was a college defensive
- 30:54coordinator. Why?
- 30:54Because they have enough talent on their roster.
- 30:56The Giants are nowhere close to that right now.
- 30:58So. They need somebody.
- 31:00That could just be a quarterback developer for the until the rest
- 31:03of the team is able to catch up both.
- 31:04Injury wise because. I don't know if they need a
- 31:06quarterback developer. I I think they need a coach.
- 31:09They need a guy that knows offenses in the NFL and he
- 31:14understands how to run a successful offense.
- 31:16Say whatever you want about Dak Prescott.
- 31:18Look at his numbers when Mike McCarthy went there.
- 31:20Yeah, Mike, that's the perfect example of that because I think
- 31:23Dak was somebody who was kind of a middle tier quarterback until
- 31:25McCarthy got there. Then he had three top five
- 31:28quarterback seasons in that that span you were you were making
- 31:30the case for MVPA few years ago. I remember in 2023 and they had
- 31:35DVOAY some of the best offenses we've seen in that stretch of
- 31:38time with with the Cowboys, even though again, they didn't have a
- 31:41lot of. Talent on their roster.
- 31:42They had CD Lamb, they had. A couple good years with Zeke,
- 31:44but like it wasn't like, all right, this is this is the
- 31:47Bengals offense that has all this receiving talent galore.
- 31:50It's a a different case with the Giants.
- 31:52When I think when you look at I again, I compare it to the
- 31:54Broncos because the Broncos had very low expectations last year
- 31:57with again, a couple young offensive players, Bow Nicks,
- 32:00that was still kind of a question mark.
- 32:01And Dart, I think in a way is still kind of a question mark
- 32:03too, with some of his miscues on short throws, some of his
- 32:06strange. He's a rookie, right?
- 32:08And I think, but also all the strange decisions to run and not
- 32:11slide. And that's coaching.
- 32:13And that's why I think you need somebody that is a stabilizer of
- 32:16that. Regardless if they're going to
- 32:18win games right away. You can't just hope for the team
- 32:20like the Giants that it lacks talent to be a quick fix right
- 32:23away. It's not going to be the 49ers
- 32:25going over there with Kyle Shanahan.
- 32:27And I think that's why a lot of these teams have been and
- 32:29miscue. I think that kind of trend like,
- 32:31oh, the 49ers in 2019 go from three wins to a Super Bowl.
- 32:34That's not going to happen overnight across the league.
- 32:36So the Giants, I agree with. You have to find.
- 32:37Stop finding those coaches from the Bills, the Chiefs, these
- 32:40other teams, just because they developed elite quarterbacks
- 32:42that play well without great coaching.
- 32:44Yeah, I think too, like, you know, we've always talked about
- 32:47it that there's, you know, always the fall guy, but I don't
- 32:50necessarily think it was a fall guy.
- 32:52I think like what you're talking about Errol too, like you have
- 32:55to bring a personality into with with what they've constructed,
- 32:58you know, this roster around right, like they have to have
- 33:00somebody that understands it brings in a mentality too, but
- 33:03also kind of understands that, you know, that younger generator
- 33:06and look, you know what he did with with DAC and in his young
- 33:09years and the good years of Zeke before Zeke ate Zeke and when he
- 33:13could actually wear the belly shirts and then the belly shirt
- 33:15just ate itself at that point. So I.
- 33:20Think that's it's a great, I mean it's a great comparison to
- 33:23bring him in. It's always interesting like
- 33:25when I look at, you know, guys getting fired and and kind of
- 33:28the trajectory that they thought they were going to go.
- 33:31And do you do you fire just the coach or do you fire like the
- 33:35conglomerate as a whole? And would he have been fired if
- 33:38the injuries wouldn't have happened in the way that they
- 33:41they would have a? 100%, absolutely.
- 33:45There's no way he keeps his job. The only way he keeps his job is
- 33:48is if the Giants almost sneak into the playoffs or get into
- 33:52the playoffs. That's the only way he was
- 33:54keeping his job. There's just so many back end
- 33:57stuff that has gone on with this team, with the players and with
- 34:01the coaching staff. Think about it, how many coaches
- 34:04were he was he fighting with? How many coaches has he let go
- 34:08over the last two seasons because he couldn't get along
- 34:10with him? And he chose those coaches to be
- 34:13on his coaching staff. So think about it.
- 34:15If he's not getting along with his own friends, he's not
- 34:18getting along with the right people and the players on his
- 34:21roster either. Java, you also bring up a good
- 34:23point too. Like I think you need AGM that
- 34:25has enough trust to be able to rebuild his team in his old
- 34:28image. I'll bring up two examples of
- 34:29that, one of which is the Seahawks.
- 34:30I think John Schneider has been there for a while, has a good GM
- 34:34and still drafted really well amidst Pete Carroll kind of
- 34:38losing his touch as the as a coach towards the end of his
- 34:40tenure with Seattle there and Phyllis really drafted well
- 34:43after that. They drafted unconventionally
- 34:44for a while. Then they bring in all these
- 34:45great offensive lineman. They just drafted A Jigba and
- 34:47all these other guys and really built the team a different mold.
- 34:50And the and the other one is the Bears.
- 34:52Recently the bears were struggling to find a head coach,
- 34:53but they they have AGM and Ryan polls has found some really good
- 34:56talent on that team. And now they finally have a
- 34:58coach not like ever flu and Ben Johnson.
- 35:00That's not wasting talent and now they look like a playoff
- 35:02team right now. So, you know, some guys as
- 35:08coaches just aren't great head coaches and they don't, they
- 35:13don't realize it until they have a chance.
- 35:14And I think we saw tables just not going to be a head coach in
- 35:18this league ever again. He's probably going to be a good
- 35:21offensive coordinator again at some point soon.
- 35:24Maybe not next year, but probably soon.
- 35:26He knows football. He gets guys open.
- 35:28That's all you can ask of an offensive coordinator, except
- 35:31you need to ask a lot more of a head coach.
- 35:34And you can tell the culture things.
- 35:35You know, he wasn't a culture creator.
- 35:38He might be a guy who can exist in a culture and be good for a
- 35:41culture. And I think he's proven that
- 35:43over his career with Belichick, with the Bills, that he is that
- 35:47guy. But when it was up to him to run
- 35:49the culture and to be that guy who needs to be even keeled on
- 35:52the sidelines, he never was. And look, my first year
- 35:57coaching, just high school kids, you don't know what you're
- 35:59doing. So what do you how do you react?
- 36:01Most people yell a lot. They blow a lot of whistles for
- 36:04up downs. And, you know, you kind of fake
- 36:06it till you make it. And every year I coached, I
- 36:10yelled less and less and blew the whistle to the point where I
- 36:13don't even have a whistle. I don't think I've used the
- 36:15whistle in like 5 years coaching football.
- 36:17I don't need it. I'm so confident with what I'm
- 36:19doing. And you could tell that, you
- 36:21know, you were hoping and I think Mara hoped that Dabel
- 36:24would kind of evolve over time. So they kept giving him chance
- 36:28over chance to kind of become that guy who can be composed on
- 36:32the sideline. And it was even worse this year
- 36:35than it was in the past. You know, he he just couldn't
- 36:38compose himself. And I mean, and then you blow
- 36:41four games that you should have won by, I mean speedy you, you
- 36:45got the advance stats on the win probability of those four games
- 36:48on the road that they should have won those games like 90% of
- 36:51the time for all four of them. And also fish like I think Dabol
- 36:56is first year and even 2023, even though they weren't a great
- 36:59team, he's still coaching aggressively too.
- 37:01We've seen him coach very stale at times, which never was like
- 37:05him. There's a 2022, a lot of the
- 37:07reasons why the Giants won so many close games is he was
- 37:10aggressive, yet you're kicking a field goal on like the three
- 37:12yard line when you again, you could ice the game with a
- 37:14touchdown or you put the Bears really far back.
- 37:17As some of our commenters have mentioned, like the Giants were
- 37:20able to rush the pastor most of that game and get pressure on
- 37:23Caleb Williams. I just couldn't bring him down.
- 37:24But maybe in the back of the end zone you can force him to make a
- 37:26mistake. Stuff like that too.
- 37:28And same kind of thing with the Broncos game, like Errol was
- 37:30saying, if they stopped running the ball, well, Scanabo got hurt
- 37:32and again, it just doesn't help and he's trying to kind of out
- 37:35coach himself in a way. And, and eventually it just
- 37:38caught up to them and a lot of senses where I think when you
- 37:41have a bad team, sometimes you have to coach creatively to do
- 37:44it. As soon as you heard Carl Banks
- 37:47and and Dexter Lawrence go back at it with each other, you knew
- 37:50it was over for Dave. You knew it.
- 37:53I'm telling you, any fan that watches the New York Giants and
- 37:57something happens in the locker room and the Giants are not The
- 38:01Jets. I will say that I'm a Jets fan.
- 38:04The Giants are on a team. Besides Odell Beckham and his
- 38:06craziness when he was there with the organization.
- 38:10The Giants are an organization that keeps it within.
- 38:12They don't really go out there. They don't really shed out their
- 38:15information to the the media and to the fans.
- 38:19The Jets are very known to do that and that's because of Woody
- 38:21Johnson and ownership over there.
- 38:24When you heard Dexter Lawrence and call Banks go at it with one
- 38:28another, it was all over the tabloids and, and how many
- 38:32people were riding it and, and, and throwing call banks under
- 38:36the bus. And then Dexter Lawrence, maybe
- 38:37he's not the real deal and maybe he's overpaid.
- 38:39As soon as you heard that and all Dabo needed to do is stop
- 38:43it, you know, pretty much go into that locker room or pull,
- 38:46pull to the, you know, pull, call Banks, 'cause he's always
- 38:49at the practices, pull him to the side and say, listen, Carl,
- 38:52let's, let's settle this between you and Dex and, and let's,
- 38:54let's quit this. Let's, let's not keep talking
- 38:56about this anymore. And, and it kept getting worse
- 38:59and worse. And Dexter Lawrence was on
- 39:01social media and then Carl Banks kind of tried to cool it down
- 39:05and sees that, that that argumental thought on who is
- 39:10what and what is what with Dexter Lawrence this year.
- 39:13As soon as you knew that was going on, it was over.
- 39:16Abel was done. And I knew that it, this was, it
- 39:19was a matter of time. As a matter of fact, Tommy
- 39:22scoops came up to me and I think it was last week, right, Tommy?
- 39:26Was it last week when you said that if the if the Giants lose,
- 39:30it was the Eagles? Yeah, if he said that if the
- 39:33Giants lost against the Eagles, I wouldn't be surprised if Dabel
- 39:37loses his job after the game. That's what he said to me.
- 39:39And I said I think it'll be one or two games after.
- 39:42And then what happened one game after he's fired.
- 39:46So I think John Mara was just waiting for the right time.
- 39:49And then after this loss after in 4 minutes you up double
- 39:53digits and you lose a game against the Chicago Bears.
- 39:57Chicago Bears. They're a good team, but to lose
- 40:01like that against a young quarterback in a in a first year
- 40:05coach when you pretty much were. Thinking that you know what out
- 40:09of them for 3/4 and then and lose a game like that the way
- 40:14you did, I mean absolutely. It to me is an absolute
- 40:19dismissal to the head coach after the game.
- 40:21I don't know what's worse though.
- 40:22Errol, the loss, which he's done three other times this season in
- 40:26almost the same fashion, or which I think I've got him
- 40:30fired. And I was listening to a couple
- 40:32of the Giants beat writers talk about it today when I got home.
- 40:35The fact that they were constantly doing these designed
- 40:38runs, not like scramble plays, but designed runs like off
- 40:42tackle runs with Jackson Dart, like knowing he's going to take
- 40:47hits on these plays. What are we doing?
- 40:50Like, well, you're you're proud that Jackson darts a tough guy
- 40:53that's great. He's the future of the franchise
- 40:55that you're not going anywhere this season.
- 40:57Maybe don't call Tim Tebow plays for him.
- 41:00Didn't we? What are we doing?
- 41:02Didn't we talk about that? I brought it up a week ago or
- 41:04two weeks ago and I was just like, why is he doing this at
- 41:07the end of the game like you're down 21 points running
- 41:10quarterback counter Trey to hope he doesn't get hit.
- 41:14He like you think your play calls that great.
- 41:16I called the same thing in high school football.
- 41:18I know what happens on the play. Everyone does that's one of the
- 41:20oldest plays in the book is from the 80s.
- 41:23Everybody knows it's a good play, but why do that when the
- 41:27game is over with your prized asset?
- 41:30And I think that was the last straw.
- 41:33But, you know, yeah, go ahead, real.
- 41:35Quick. I'm going to join in real quick
- 41:36on that. I can't put myself on the camera
- 41:39for some reason. But for like you saying though,
- 41:42with Jayden Daniels, that was exactly the same reason why I
- 41:45don't know why anybody had Jayden Daniels in the game.
- 41:48And look at what happened. He had a dislocated arm.
- 41:50He effed up his arm so bad to the point that a lot of us
- 41:53viewers were looking at it. Jackson direction has still been
- 41:56in the game. Like that's, that's, that's
- 41:57exactly what we were saying. Jackson not still been in the
- 42:00game, but Jackson direction has still had those design runs for
- 42:02him. If I'm being honest, if I'm the
- 42:05Giants, I would sit dark for the rest of the year.
- 42:07There's not going anywhere for the rest of this year.
- 42:09Caleb, I'm sorry, not Caleb Williams, Jameis Winston or
- 42:12Russell Wilson will be a much better fit for the rest of these
- 42:16guys who you have thrown the ball to Wanda Robinson or
- 42:18whatever guys come off the bench or whatnot.
- 42:20Dart shouldn't play another game for the rest of the year.
- 42:23That's my personal going into this the next.
- 42:25Here's the thing, you're a rookie quarterback.
- 42:28You want to play. That's what your your, your goal
- 42:31your whole career was to go and play NFL football.
- 42:34You're not going to say, hey, you know what, I'm not going to
- 42:36play for the rest of the season because I don't want to hurt
- 42:38myself. Jackson Dart is a competitor.
- 42:41And if you're a competitor, you're going to want to go out
- 42:43there. John Jabba, you know this,
- 42:45you're a, you're a professional athlete.
- 42:47You got a chance to prove yourself.
- 42:48Now with Mike Kafka, this is even more to show everybody that
- 42:52you're the future quarterback of this organization to go out
- 42:55there and put up numbers and play as hard as he does.
- 42:58This could this could give Mike Kafka an opportunity to maybe
- 43:02interview for the job. So why would they sit out their
- 43:06young quarterback when he has a chance to flourish?
- 43:09I think it's a bad move for the New York Giants if they sit him
- 43:11out. I can see it both ways.
- 43:14I understand where Scoops is coming from because you want
- 43:17that to be the franchise and that's kind of what they've
- 43:19said. But on the other hand, it's like
- 43:22we don't want to sit because then first of all, it makes us
- 43:24look soft to our teammates. If if nothing's wrong, because
- 43:27who knows what's being said in the clubhouse.
- 43:29And hey, you know what, I'm just going to, you know, we're loot.
- 43:32We lost our guys. You know what?
- 43:33Now I'm just, I'm, I'm going to protect myself.
- 43:36I'm I'm bigger than the team, kind of.
- 43:38And I don't know if that's the case.
- 43:39I don't know the guy. We're not in the clubhouse.
- 43:41We don't know. But I'm saying it could be
- 43:43misconstrued like that from that perspective.
- 43:46And it's like, hey, sometimes we've seen when a new coach
- 43:48comes in, it's like, yeah, we got nothing to lose at this
- 43:51point, right? And it it could show like he
- 43:53gets an opportunity. And then for Jackson Dart at the
- 43:56same time, it's like, hey, I understand that that we've lost
- 43:59a bunch of guys injuries. You know what, I'm going to go
- 44:01play balls to the wall and I'm going to show you that I don't
- 44:03care who's on the field. I'm going to play with
- 44:06everything I got and tried us to put us in the best position even
- 44:08though we're not going anywhere. So I can see both sides of it.
- 44:11But especially as a rookie, like if he's probably a little older
- 44:14with, with what's going on, he probably has a little bit more
- 44:17say and kind of what happens. But there's no way you're going
- 44:21to, I wouldn't say fold on the team, but be like, Hey, I'm just
- 44:24going to take it easy. Because in in reality, if he's
- 44:27going to do that and just play, you know, half ass, that's when
- 44:30you really get hurt. There are two.
- 44:33Coaches. Mike McCarthy would be my #1 the
- 44:37other guy that I would look at. And I'm just, this is a guy that
- 44:41I think was successful when he took over for Vegas.
- 44:45He was an ex giant Antonio Pierce.
- 44:47He's been out there all over social media, he's been on
- 44:52different shows speaking about Gable and, and, and really
- 44:56throwing Gable under the bus saying you don't put your
- 44:57quarterback in harm's way at any point at any part of the game
- 45:01when you're trying to get this guy to feel the rhythm, feel his
- 45:05rhythm and understand what his rhythm is in the NFLI think
- 45:09Antonio Pierce is going to be interviewed because I know John
- 45:12Mayra looks very, I mean, speaks very highly of him and looks at
- 45:16him as a great football mind, but it's it's.
- 45:19Hold on, do you think that mentality is from the fact that
- 45:22he played the game and it's kind of been in the situation where
- 45:24he saw from a players mentality? I think he was successful as a
- 45:28player and he was successful for the little bit of time as a head
- 45:32coach the Vegas Raiders didn't. That first year.
- 45:36Yeah, he was good and I think he was.
- 45:38Good in that first year. He wasn't an exes an O's guy
- 45:41though. They had no talent though.
- 45:43Well, he didn't have the right offensive coordinator.
- 45:44He didn't have anything. No, he needed, he needs a good
- 45:48offensive coordinator to stand by him.
- 45:50Antonio Pierce is a great leader.
- 45:52He is a great leader of men, young men.
- 45:55I've heard a lot of stories about him.
- 45:56I've talked to Michael Strahan Offset before and even other
- 46:01guys that Speedy, you know, Speedy's in love with Speedy's
- 46:04favorite player of all time. Speedy, why don't you tell
- 46:06everybody just and talk? I've had conversations with him
- 46:10and he said the leader of that defense was Antonio Pierce and
- 46:12Antonio Pierce was the the voice of reason with that roster.
- 46:17I think Antonio Pierce would be a great get for the Giants if
- 46:20they have the right offensive coordinator to help him out.
- 46:24But I honestly believe, honestly believe, if you're a Giant fan,
- 46:28it's Mike McCarthy. Nobody else.
- 46:31I got a list of three guys that you didn't mention.
- 46:33I have three different guys. I'm not into McCarthy, although
- 46:36I do agree he's a winning coach. But I have I have a young guy,
- 46:40an old guy and the right guy. The young guy who I like is my
- 46:44favorite young coach is Jesse Minter.
- 46:46I'm willing to take a look at that Harbaugh tree.
- 46:48If I'm going to take a look at any tree for young coaches,
- 46:52that's the one I want to take a look at first.
- 46:54But I don't want him. He's the young guy I would take
- 46:56if you're going. You do not want to bring in a
- 46:58defensive coordinator. I don't, I don't agree with
- 47:00that. I think if you have a you.
- 47:01Do not want to bring in a defensive coordinator.
- 47:03You want to bring in an offensive coordinator to help
- 47:06the kid develop. I wouldn't do.
- 47:07That the old guy talk about quarterback developing Happened
- 47:11to watch a great episode of Gruden's QB camp with Jackson
- 47:14Dart and Jon. Gruden wants to get back into
- 47:17coaching and Jon Gruden, in my opinion, is one of the best
- 47:20moulders of quarterbacks we've ever seen.
- 47:23It's not going to. Happen.
- 47:24I don't know. I don't think it's going to
- 47:25happen. But like I said, this is the old
- 47:26guy that I'd like now. The right guy, I think, is Brian
- 47:30Flores. Ryan Flores has done water.
- 47:34You're wrong about that. There's defensive corners get
- 47:36jobs all the time. Yeah.
- 47:39All the time. And they're successful, too.
- 47:41They're successful, too. D'amico Ryan's doing a lot with
- 47:44a very little bit of offense over there.
- 47:46He's got to figure out the offense, but it's not his fault.
- 47:48Ryan Flores had a problem in Miami with his quarterback.
- 47:51Well, Ryan Flores had a lot of problems in Miami, We know.
- 47:54About. That I'm just saying I'm not
- 47:56bringing. But take a look at what's going
- 47:57on with him right now. He's going to get assistant
- 47:59coach of the year. He's doing things over there.
- 48:02That's that guy, Defensive coordinator of the year, and he
- 48:06was a good head coach. The only reason he's not a head
- 48:07coach is he sued the NFL. So the only reason he's not a
- 48:10head coach and that Miami tried to intentionally lose.
- 48:14We know this. This is documented.
- 48:16That guy is better than everyone else available.
- 48:19He just is. He's a really good coach.
- 48:21Mike McCarthy is the best one available.
- 48:23He's a lot younger than McCarthy.
- 48:24McCarthy is like 65. It doesn't matter.
- 48:27Mike McCarthy has been in the games.
- 48:29I, I, I do not. The Giants want to win now.
- 48:32And the Giants and John Mayer, they're they're getting up there
- 48:35in age. He wants to see another
- 48:36championship. He believes he has a quarterback
- 48:39to the future. You have to bring in a guy
- 48:41that's going to develop him. You're not bringing in a
- 48:43defensive corner. You're not bringing another
- 48:45rookie and Jon Grudy, and as much as I love him and I think
- 48:48he's a slam dunk, if the Giants go that route, there's no way
- 48:52the New York Giants and John Mara is going to go that route
- 48:55because John Gruden, I don't believe in any shape or form is
- 49:00ever going to get a job in the NFL.
- 49:01The way the NFL looks at him with those racist remarks.
- 49:04Unfortunately, the NFL screwed him.
- 49:07So it's not going to be John, it's Mike McCarthy.
- 49:10Guys, I'm telling you, I'm going to write a story.
- 49:13If the Giants are a smart, well, they're not.
- 49:16But if they were smart of an organization, which they haven't
- 49:20been over the last, I would say 10 years, if they're right, the
- 49:24right way to go is to bring in a veteran guy that knows the West
- 49:29Coast offense. What has been the most
- 49:30successful Let's. Talk West Coast.
- 49:33Let's talk. Let's talk West.
- 49:34Coast Hold on. Hold on West Coast offense.
- 49:37Speedy. What has been the best moving
- 49:40offense in the NFL in the last 20 years?
- 49:43Yeah, West. Coast.
- 49:44It's the West Coast. And who is?
- 49:46It has been. It's a 40 year old offense from
- 49:48the 1980's, the West Coast offense.
- 49:51That's what it is. It was created by Bill Walsh.
- 49:54It was created by Bill Walsh and every disciple, they don't run a
- 49:59West Coast offense. They run a derivative of the
- 50:02West Coast offense and it's not the same.
- 50:05What word It's it's definitely nowhere close to time.
- 50:09And like Jackson darts not a timing route guy.
- 50:11Aaron Rodgers wasn't a timing route guy even when he was doing
- 50:15it 1015 years ago. That's not West Coast because he
- 50:19rolls out of the pocket. There's no rolling out of the
- 50:21pocket in the West Coast offense.
- 50:23It's on timing. 123 throw 12345 Throw.
- 50:27So stop, stop this. But that's a scramble when the
- 50:31play breaks down or a design draw all the.
- 50:34Time he did it all the. Time that's but you're saying
- 50:38that you want Jackson Dart to learn how to be like 123 go.
- 50:41I'm not. Telling you, but that's West
- 50:43Coast. That's what that means when you
- 50:44say West Coast. It's a timing route.
- 50:47I agree. With you, I disagree with you.
- 50:49But that's like the definition. But bringing your you want to
- 50:51bring in a defensive coordinator.
- 50:53That doesn't work. It doesn't.
- 50:55Help. I think West Coast is simple.
- 50:56I I think that's a simple offense.
- 50:58I'll tell you if you're going to do that.
- 51:00I think he needs to be different.
- 51:01Tell me. Tell me the last defensive
- 51:03coordinator that took over over an NFL job for the first time
- 51:07that's developed a quarterback? Have you looked at CJ Stroud?
- 51:11Yeah. He's great, he's been.
- 51:13Great. He's really good.
- 51:15He has nothing there. He's been horrible.
- 51:17You think that he's bad. You think CJ Stroud is horrible.
- 51:20I wouldn't say he's been horrible.
- 51:23He was an. Amazing rookie.
- 51:24They have the worst offense, one of the worst offensive lines.
- 51:28His third year has been crap. They're.
- 51:30They might make the playoffs, I don't think.
- 51:32I don't sell them short. They're on the They've been
- 51:35really good recently and that coach D'amico, Ryan's defensive
- 51:38coordinator, is excellent. Let me tell you something, if
- 51:42that's excellent, if that's what you're.
- 51:44Trying. I would take D'amico Ryan's
- 51:45today, tomorrow and every day and twice on Sundays.
- 51:49Now, guess what? There's only one coach that I
- 51:51can tell you right now that is a defensive mind that's developed,
- 51:56a quarterback in this NFL that's been successful, and that's the
- 52:00Buffalo Bills. That is it.
- 52:02That is it. So you're going to come at me
- 52:06and you're going to tell me. I mean Belichick develop Brady.
- 52:09That's that's a long time ago, dude.
- 52:11That's 25 years ago. That's a long.
- 52:14That's a long time ago. It might be longer than 20. 5I
- 52:18it's it's, it's been over. 25, it's 25, yeah.
- 52:21But here's the facts. And I don't care what their
- 52:23numbers are. My my thought here is you bring
- 52:25in a veteran guy that's done it and has won in the same division
- 52:29and he knows the Cowboys, he knows the Eagles and he knows
- 52:32the Commanders and he knows the NFC North, which is the best,
- 52:37really the best division in football.
- 52:39So I'm going that route. And I don't care how old he is.
- 52:42He was, he's missed one season. His offense absolutely works,
- 52:48absolutely works still. And he can make Jackson Dart a
- 52:52successful quarterback in the NFL.
- 52:54Speaking of quarterbacks, with three weeks left until
- 52:57conference championship week, the race for the Heisman Trophy
- 53:02is at full gear. Currently a dead heat between #1
- 53:06Ohio State freshman quarterback stay in, which is a + 170, I
- 53:09mean plus 160 and #2 Indiana quarterback Mendoza plus 170.
- 53:15Mendoza made a huge statement this past weekend in a thrilling
- 53:19fourth quarter game-winning drive on the road against Penn
- 53:22State. They don't have the coach
- 53:25leading announcer Gus Johnson to freak out before declaring him
- 53:31the Heisman winner on the spot after completing A miraculous
- 53:35touchdown to Why receiver Cooper The next closest Heisman
- 53:40competitor is Alabama's quarterback Simpson, which is a
- 53:43+ 500 Texas A&M quarterback. Read +6700 with Ohio State star
- 53:50receiver Smith a + 3000 Notre Dame running back.
- 53:54Also Love is at a + 3500. Having the best odds for non
- 54:00quarterbacks saying is the current betting favorite and can
- 54:06become the first freshman to win a Heisman Trophy since Johnny
- 54:10Manziel did back in 2012. I've watched an itty bit of time
- 54:18of football and college football this year.
- 54:20I'm going to be honest with you guys.
- 54:22I've watched a lot of Mendoza, Fernando Mendoza.
- 54:26I've watched at least five games this year.
- 54:28Why? Because Josh Silverberg, I'm
- 54:31going to give him a shout out who does a show on our network
- 54:34and it's a funny show and he does a great job with his friend
- 54:38Eric and he does a great job with his father.
- 54:41They're really game on. By the way, I'm going to give
- 54:43you the name. He has been saying this for a
- 54:46year and a half that Fernando Mendoza is the guy.
- 54:49Fernando Mendoza is going to be the best quarterback going into
- 54:52the season. And I could honestly say that he
- 54:55was right. Fernando Mendoza has the ability
- 54:58to step into the pocket, move outside of the pocket.
- 55:01He is not a mobile quarterback, but he's he's kind of like a
- 55:05Daniel Jones type of quarterback.
- 55:07He's a lot faster than he looks. He's not slow.
- 55:11So for anybody to say, oh, he's he can't run.
- 55:13He can run. I've seen him run.
- 55:15He can run. But he's not one of those guys
- 55:18where he's Jalen Hurts or he's Johnny Manziel or one of these
- 55:21guys. He's not that kind of
- 55:22quarterback. He's a guy that steps into the
- 55:25pocket, can make every single throw.
- 55:26He's the Eli Manning, I would say Peyton Manning slash Tom
- 55:31Brady type of quarterback. Now, is he that good?
- 55:35I don't know. Is he going to make it in the
- 55:37NFL as a star quarterback? I don't know.
- 55:40What I do know is he is the absolute bona fide Heisman
- 55:45Trophy winner right now. In my eyes, he absolutely the
- 55:50Heisman Trophy winner. Now, Indiana has done something
- 55:53that we didn't think they were going to be 1, undefeated, 2.
- 55:57They're the number 2 ranking team in the country.
- 56:00Now going into the season, did anybody think they were going to
- 56:03be a top three team? I don't think anybody did.
- 56:06Anybody did because their roster isn't that good.
- 56:08They don't have elite wide receivers.
- 56:11They don't have any elite power back.
- 56:14They have a good offensive line, which they usually do, and they
- 56:18have a pretty good defense. But with this quarterback and
- 56:23what he does and what he does very well is he makes everybody
- 56:27around him better, which is what you look for when you're looking
- 56:31for a star or a future franchise quarterback in the NFL.
- 56:35Fernando Mendoza is that guy. I look at Alabama quarterbacks
- 56:40over the years, not successful. We go up and down.
- 56:44I mean, Matt Jones has been probably the most successful one
- 56:47out of all of them and he's a backup quarterback right now for
- 56:49the 49ers, Yes. Oh, and if you're listening,
- 56:52you're backup quarterback. They don't and they're not
- 56:56successful in the NFL. Jalen Hurts, I wouldn't even
- 57:00consider him an Alabama quarterback because his final
- 57:04years, whereas with Oklahoma, so he went into the draft as an
- 57:08Oklahoma quarterback. So I'm not even going to say
- 57:10he's an Alabama quarterback. So I don't know what Simpson is.
- 57:16He is going to be in the NFL draft this year.
- 57:18Is he a first round talent? I don't know.
- 57:22What I do know is he's a good, he's a good quarterback that can
- 57:26he's much as much more mobility than a Fernando Mendoza.
- 57:31Mendoza, like I said, out of all the quarterbacks we mentioned,
- 57:34is probably the most pocket present quarterback out of all
- 57:38of them and that is what a lot of coaches and a lot of GMs look
- 57:44for. For a quarterback that you want
- 57:46to build your team around. Sayin is the betting favorite.
- 57:51Now, why is he betting favorite? Well, he is not going in this
- 57:54year's draft. He is still a freshman.
- 57:57He has two more years left, but we have seen this before, Johnny
- 58:02Manziel. Now Sayin is a quarterback that
- 58:06has the ability to throw the ball, but he is a mobility
- 58:10superstar. This guy can run all over the
- 58:13field. He does so many things great,
- 58:17but does he do it sensational? Is he?
- 58:20Is he great? I know everybody keeps saying
- 58:23Sane is going to be a #1 prospect and a number one
- 58:26quarterback in the draft in the next couple of years.
- 58:28I don't know. Again, teams are going to have
- 58:31tape on him. Teams are going to be able to
- 58:33watch him. We're going to see how he plays
- 58:35in his sophomore year in college.
- 58:37And we all know Ohio State, they always get the best recruits and
- 58:41they still have Smith one more year.
- 58:43So he'll be just as good next year because Smith, I believe,
- 58:45is going to be either the number one or #2 pick in next year's
- 58:49draft. He's that good.
- 58:51He's going to be that good. But again, I look at all three
- 58:56of these quarterbacks and I I don't think Texas AM's
- 58:58quarterback is going to have a chance.
- 59:00Reed I don't think Smith because they don't usually pick wide
- 59:03receivers unless the quarterback player just absolutely
- 59:06despicable. The last quarterback, the last
- 59:08wide receiver to win a Heisman was Smith, Devante Smith, and
- 59:12that's because the quarterback play that year.
- 59:14I think Mac Jones was in that right.
- 59:17I'm not picking Mac Jones over devoid Smith.
- 59:19Smith was breaking records that year.
- 59:20I'm not going, I I'm not going with the quarterback I'm looking
- 59:24at and Nora Dave running back is, is fantastic.
- 59:26And is he, is he a sophomore speedier?
- 59:29No, he's a junior. He's going to be in a draft this
- 59:32year. So he might be a first round
- 59:33talent. We'll see how everything falls.
- 59:35Might be a late first round, early second round pick like a
- 59:38lot of these star running backs are.
- 59:41I'm telling you right now, Mendoza should win the Heisman,
- 59:46absolutely should have run away with it.
- 59:48The only reason why they're looking at saying right now is
- 59:50because he's part of the number one rank Ohio State Buckeyes and
- 59:55expected to win a national championship.
- 59:57And he has been remarkable on the field offensively,
- 1:00:01leadership. He's done everything you want a
- 1:00:04young quarterback to be and not expect Ohio State Buckeyes
- 1:00:07quarterback to be as Joe Burrow, who decided to part ways and go
- 1:00:11to LSU because he never got a shot over there in Ohio State.
- 1:00:15Because they decided to go with quarterbacks dad they thought
- 1:00:18were better than him, which they were absolutely wrong about.
- 1:00:21So I'm I'm absolutely going with Hernandez.
- 1:00:25I don't care. I mean, I'm sorry, Mendoza over,
- 1:00:29over saying. And obviously Simpson, because
- 1:00:32what I've seen in the five games that I watched him is it is the
- 1:00:35quarterback that's very confident, not cocky, knows how
- 1:00:37to speak to the media, and there's a bona fide star in the
- 1:00:41NFL. Yeah.
- 1:00:42It's also something where you look at awards in general, when
- 1:00:44you look at the NFL MVP, when you look at certain NBA MVP
- 1:00:49races as well, which you have two guys usually in the top 10,
- 1:00:52they're generally going to cancel out.
- 1:00:53That's why I'm surprised that saying is labeled as the
- 1:00:55favorite right now. Now I think his bulk games have
- 1:00:58been maybe better than some of those guys, but I don't think
- 1:01:02it's as consistent as somebody like Mendoza or even somebody
- 1:01:04like Marcel Reed too. That's been pretty steady
- 1:01:06throughout the year. Simpsons kind of started slow.
- 1:01:08He's come along later. They're saying Reed is like a
- 1:01:10third round talent. Well, I think for the NFL
- 1:01:12standards he has, but like he also he he's been more
- 1:01:16consistent. He has the dual threat ability,
- 1:01:17which could help him when it comes to the rushing yards.
- 1:01:19Maybe that could elevate him in the in the polls.
- 1:01:21And I don't want to say something if The Jets miss out
- 1:01:25on Mendoza because it looks like they are because they keep
- 1:01:28pointing for some damn reason. I'm not taking shots at Aaron
- 1:01:31Glenn, but I understand. I think Reed would be the guy
- 1:01:35that the judge have to look at in this year's coming class.
- 1:01:38In the third round, you got two third round draft picks.
- 1:01:41If they're saying Reed is a third round talent, you have one
- 1:01:44of those picks. I would absolutely take a shot
- 1:01:47with Reed because I think he could be a good quarterback in
- 1:01:50this league if you put him with the right offensive coordinator.
- 1:01:53Yeah, and that's what I'm saying.
- 1:01:54Lately. The Texas and Alabama are
- 1:01:56interesting because they don't have to play each other this
- 1:01:57year. Usually they do for SEC West
- 1:01:59schools, but don't have to do it.
- 1:02:00So there's a chance that obviously Alabama already lost.
- 1:02:03But Texas going defeat in Alabama's they lost the first
- 1:02:06game of the season, but since then it looked great.
- 1:02:07They might be able to look. They might performance wise, it
- 1:02:09looks like the best team in the country.
- 1:02:11But you're looking at a case where Simpson, I think, because
- 1:02:13he started slow, might be a little further behind and he
- 1:02:15doesn't run like he does. So that could I think that could
- 1:02:18give Reed the edge to be the second guy.
- 1:02:20I Smith is the best receiver. He's probably the best non
- 1:02:22quarterback in the country right now.
- 1:02:24But again, because you have to say in there because, like you
- 1:02:26say, oh, I have saved his load of talent around him.
- 1:02:29I don't know if you're going to give him a Heisman Trophy unless
- 1:02:31he finishes like 2000 yards or CE or something like that.
- 1:02:33Like it would take a lot for it's a, it's a little bit more
- 1:02:36impressive what Indiana is doing right now, what Mendoza is doing
- 1:02:39with nothing, honestly, nothing. And, and I don't care.
- 1:02:43I know everybody's going to say, well, what was his numbers this
- 1:02:45weekend? He didn't even throw over 200
- 1:02:47yards. Who cares when he needed to make
- 1:02:50a play, he made the play and he made it in a way where a lot of
- 1:02:54quarterbacks in the NFL probably couldn't have made the throws
- 1:02:57that he was making. So it was impressive.
- 1:03:00I would I would say, and I'm I'm sure fish would agree with me.
- 1:03:03And I know he was like, wow, did you say when we were had our
- 1:03:05meeting on Sunday, like they did watch like when Delta did at the
- 1:03:08end of the game. So I I mean, it was impressive
- 1:03:11there. It was no question.
- 1:03:12And there were going to be some level that Indiana was going to
- 1:03:14be have a sense of adversity. And again, if you're like that,
- 1:03:17that's coming wise when you look at the Big 10 schedule, like you
- 1:03:20could have said, all right, A-Team like Penn State who's
- 1:03:22normally good at a bad year or, or one of these other Big 10 E
- 1:03:24teams are going to say, all right, maybe they would cover
- 1:03:26the spread and play in close. In some you.
- 1:03:28Know what I worry about? I worry about obviously saying
- 1:03:32playing Mendoza in the conference championship game and
- 1:03:37and Mendoza losing and, and they give it to saying because of
- 1:03:40that, that's it because it because or Ohio State is a much
- 1:03:44better team than Indiana. The only way a guy like Mendoza
- 1:03:48wins is if he keeps the game close and then loses the game.
- 1:03:52You know, he loses at the end of the game and and he kept his
- 1:03:54team in. I, I think that's, that's why
- 1:03:56I'm worried about because that's they're going to match up
- 1:03:59against each other, the two best teams in the country.
- 1:04:01And it bothers me because Mendoza, he doesn't have
- 1:04:05anywhere close to the talent Ohio State has.
- 1:04:07Yeah. We hope the.
- 1:04:08Voters would evolve to not include like the regular season
- 1:04:12record is defining thing for a quarterback step because Ohio
- 1:04:14State could even win and Mendoza could outplay say it in that
- 1:04:17game. And like, just because of the
- 1:04:18talent discrepancy there and the experience that Ohio State has,
- 1:04:21Indiana's playing over their head right now.
- 1:04:23I mean, they're not a new team. They did great last year too.
- 1:04:26But like just because of that you hope the recency price
- 1:04:28doesn't go in that direction. But again, you.
- 1:04:31Want a fresh? Freshman like that.
- 1:04:32So that's why the voting polls are going to go like that.
- 1:04:34But I agree with you, Mendoza. I'll be at the.
- 1:04:36Heisman dinner, I'm going to be there there again this year, so
- 1:04:39I'll get the opportunity to speak by piece with all those
- 1:04:43guys. You know what you'll you see
- 1:04:45when you watch those two guys, I see a really good young freshman
- 1:04:49quarterback who's got a bright future throwing to top 10
- 1:04:54receivers on on both sides of the field and he is just
- 1:04:58dominating because it's pretty easy to dominate with that team.
- 1:05:02He's doing a great job. Power to him.
- 1:05:03He's got a crazy touchdown interception ratio, an 80.8%
- 1:05:08completion percent of Gerald. It's unheard of to be over 80%
- 1:05:12with what saying is doing. But what I saw Mendoza do,
- 1:05:15especially in that last drive, if you needed the ball to be on
- 1:05:19the upper right corner of his right shoulder, that's exactly
- 1:05:22where the ball is going to be. If you need the ball on the seam
- 1:05:25to the back shoulder of the seam, he could do that too.
- 1:05:28And he just has this elite ball placement.
- 1:05:31And then that last one under pressure, he throws it to the
- 1:05:33back of the end zone and the receiver, great play by that
- 1:05:36receiver to get that foot in, But that throws unbelievable.
- 1:05:41He made unbelievable throw after unbelievable throw.
- 1:05:43He might not win the Heisman arrow, but I think he's going to
- 1:05:46be the number one pick in the draft and he has.
- 1:05:50I think he's kind of showing that he has the kind of arm
- 1:05:53talent. That's rare.
- 1:05:55Let's look at that. Let's look at that right now.
- 1:05:58Now I'm looking at tank a thon right now.
- 1:06:01And before I, I checked The Jets win yesterday, the tank a thon
- 1:06:06was, hold on, I'm bringing the NFL tank a thon.
- 1:06:09Titans are #1 I know Titans. The Titans have ward, so they're
- 1:06:12not drafting a quarterback. They're not.
- 1:06:15So you have the Saints, you have the Giants, you have Cleveland
- 1:06:19and you have The Jets. Right now you have 123.
- 1:06:22The Giants aren't drafting the quarterback.
- 1:06:24The Saints can. Cleveland is not drafting a
- 1:06:27quarterback. They have two of them and
- 1:06:29they're they're they're going to try both of these guys it.
- 1:06:31Is Cleveland though? They are stupid.
- 1:06:33Yeah, I don't think it's it's either The Jets or the Saints
- 1:06:36that are sitting there right now are going to be fighting for
- 1:06:38that that pick. Now The Jets have a, they have a
- 1:06:42ton of draft stock and sitting there at 5:00 and I think The
- 1:06:45Jets will be in the top three by the end of the season.
- 1:06:48They're scheduled besides the Saints.
- 1:06:50The Saints are probably going to beat The Jets after what I saw.
- 1:06:53I think the Saints are playing better football than The Jets.
- 1:06:56I I think they're going to, they're going to hop the Saints.
- 1:06:59And I still think, yeah, I, I still think The Jets are going
- 1:07:03to probably lose out the rest of the games this season.
- 1:07:06I can't see them winning any more games.
- 1:07:08So the Patriots should beat them both times.
- 1:07:10I, I and I think the Bills will beat them again.
- 1:07:12So I, I don't see The Jets winning another game.
- 1:07:14So I, I expect The Jets by the end of the season to be in a top
- 1:07:17three. Do The Jets make a trade with
- 1:07:20Tennessee if they think Mendoza is the guy?
- 1:07:23Do they give up an extra first round draft pick to jump that
- 1:07:26one or two spots to get the guy that they have been really
- 1:07:30coveted over? The last I, I've heard over the
- 1:07:33last couple of weeks, they've been going and watching his
- 1:07:36games and winning games. As a matter of fact, am I not
- 1:07:39mistaken that Jets have won back-to-back games?
- 1:07:41So I mean, I everybody that said Aaron Glenn's horrible.
- 1:07:47He's got more wins than Dan Campbell does in the 1st 10
- 1:07:50games of his career. I haven't lost for three
- 1:07:52straight weeks. So I mean, he's done more, he's
- 1:07:54won more back-to-back games than Robert Sala did in his tenure.
- 1:07:59So, I mean, for all you Jet fans that said that Aaron Clay can't
- 1:08:03coach, well, they just traded their two best players at their
- 1:08:06positions and they won against a Browns defense that he's elite,
- 1:08:11top three in the league and they didn't have a quarterback to
- 1:08:15throw over 50 yards. Think about that.
- 1:08:18So that's coaching, boy. So I don't want to hear from the
- 1:08:21Jet fans anymore. They've got a coach.
- 1:08:24Stop it. Stop with the crap that comes
- 1:08:26out everybody's mouth. I'm so tired of Jet fans coming
- 1:08:29up with the most I have, by the way, wearing my new Jet jersey
- 1:08:32like it. I think it's, I think it's
- 1:08:34actually pretty nice. Is it Gray?
- 1:08:36It's like a it's like a greenish Gray.
- 1:08:39It's like a nice greenish Gray. I actually like it.
- 1:08:42It's it's really cool, really cool looking.
- 1:08:44My favorite jersey because I got the black.
- 1:08:46I get all of them, but this is I just got it today and I I wanted
- 1:08:49to sport it. It says the mouth on the back
- 1:08:51and I might wear it at our dinner November 17th.
- 1:08:54So to show it off because it's a beautiful jersey.
- 1:08:57So we'll see. Maybe the Danny Dimes to piss
- 1:09:00off all the giant fans. I don't know.
- 1:09:02We'll figure it out. I or maybe my jism jersey
- 1:09:05because I got that one too. Silver Slugger.
- 1:09:08Jazz Chism. Oh please, I don't want to.
- 1:09:11Got a lot more to do and we got a guest waiting and we're gonna
- 1:09:14go right into the Golf Club of the day.
- 1:09:18This deserves a golf clap, no doubt.
- 1:09:21Golf clap. Golf clap.
- 1:09:24So my golf clap of the day, I wanted to go with the Jake Paul
- 1:09:27situation because Jake Paul's trying to find an opponent,
- 1:09:31ladies and gentlemen, and he's reaching out to everybody.
- 1:09:35He's pulling no, no arms or he's trying to pull an arm or trying
- 1:09:39to pull a finger like Babe Ruth used to do to fart in people's
- 1:09:42faces. Well, he reached out to a UFC
- 1:09:45champion recently, Francis Nagano, and challenge Francis
- 1:09:51Nagano and has called him out saying he can't even beat good
- 1:09:55boxers. As he you know, he got knocked
- 1:09:58out by a boxer that a lot of people think Jake Paul is trying
- 1:10:02to chat a challenge as well. Nagano came out and said well,
- 1:10:05first I'm going to read what he said about Nagano.
- 1:10:07First of all, dear friend, dear Francis, just say you already
- 1:10:11got humiliated in in in a boxing scare to lose to to lose to Jake
- 1:10:18Paul. I accept that you are a light
- 1:10:20your light work, my friend stuck in the mud.
- 1:10:23Jake's social media posted and read as expected, fans took the
- 1:10:29took what Jake Paul said and attack Jake Paul.
- 1:10:32All of social media. Quite a a few UFC fighters came
- 1:10:35out and spoke their piece about Jake Paul and said you don't
- 1:10:38want this, you don't want this. Francis Nagano actually came out
- 1:10:43and said, choose your words wisely, boy.
- 1:10:46I agree that you need someone to discipline you for what you did
- 1:10:51to Mike Tyson, but stay in your lane as he came out and said
- 1:10:56that to Jake Paul. And Nagano is laughing because I
- 1:10:59don't think he wants Nagano. I think what he's doing, he's
- 1:11:02just trying to provoke somebody that he doesn't want any part
- 1:11:05of. So my golf clap of the day goes
- 1:11:08to Jake Paul on his stupidity on calling out not only a world
- 1:11:13champion UFC fighter, a guy that almost knocked down, well,
- 1:11:18almost knocked out Tyson Fury, a world champion.
- 1:11:21So my Golf Club goes to the one and only Jake Paul for screwing
- 1:11:26up again and challenging an idiot.
- 1:11:28Challenging an idiot. He's a challenging idiot.
- 1:11:32Didn't challenge an idiot, he's a challenging idiot.
- 1:11:35So there it is. I'm trying to figure out my
- 1:11:37words tonight. It's a it's a little lost and
- 1:11:40I'm a little lost with words, but yeah, Nagano, that that
- 1:11:42story. And by the way, I've watched
- 1:11:44like 4 UFC mixed martial arts podcast and said that if Francis
- 1:11:50Nagano fights Jake Paul even in a short time, I think what the
- 1:11:53fight supposed to be in a week, if Nagano accepts his fight and
- 1:11:58fights him, he'll knock him out in the first round.
- 1:12:00I don't think Jake Paul lives to see another day after the first
- 1:12:03round. So I don't think it's going to
- 1:12:05happen. But nevertheless, I'm hearing
- 1:12:08that there are other fighters, lighter fighters that have been
- 1:12:11champions that are interested in maybe jumping in the ring with
- 1:12:15him for Davis's spot because there's a lot of money involved
- 1:12:19with it. So we'll see what happens.
- 1:12:21He's got probably 24 to 48 hours to pick a fighter because I
- 1:12:26don't think anybody's going to fight by next week if if he
- 1:12:29doesn't. So we'll see what happens with
- 1:12:30the Jake Paul fight if it ever happens.
- 1:12:33All right, when we come back, ladies and gentlemen, she's been
- 1:12:36in the backroom. We're going to be talking to
- 1:12:37her. She's been on our show before.
- 1:12:40She's got a lot of great songs out right now on Spotify and
- 1:12:43Apple. She's doing big things and she's
- 1:12:46been all over the world, all over the United States doing the
- 1:12:49national anthem. And now she'll be doing the
- 1:12:52national anthem for the Bills game, November 16th versus the
- 1:12:55Bucks. The one and only, our friend
- 1:12:58Allie Burke. But our sports minute with the
- 1:13:00fish. Says the Jabba and the Mouth
- 1:13:06Sportsman ads. All right guys, Aaron Fishman
- 1:13:10here with your sportsman. I got a couple of stories for
- 1:13:13you before we go through the scores this evening.
- 1:13:15ESPN made some news Thursday, signing a partnership deal with
- 1:13:19DraftKings, making them ESP NS official sports book odds
- 1:13:24provider. Starting in December, DraftKings
- 1:13:26will be integrated into ESP NS various platforms.
- 1:13:30Our betting approach has focused on offering an integrated
- 1:13:32experience within our products, ESPN Chairman Jimmy Pitaro said
- 1:13:36in a statement. Working with DraftKings, a
- 1:13:38leader in the space, will allow us to build upon that
- 1:13:40foundation, continue to super serve passionate sports fans and
- 1:13:45grow our ESPN Direct to consumer business.
- 1:13:47We are excited about this new collaboration with DraftKings.
- 1:13:51This move comes on the heels of ESPN ending their partnership
- 1:13:53with Penn Entertainment and their ESPN Bet software, which
- 1:13:57had provided their betting content prior to this new deal.
- 1:14:00A full rollout is expected in 2026, starting however, with
- 1:14:04daily fantasy and pick six, and ESPN reported on Friday that Fox
- 1:14:09Sports analyst Mark Sanchez will not return to the air and has
- 1:14:14been fired. After his incredibly peculiar,
- 1:14:17embarrassed, and embarrassing October arrest.
- 1:14:20We can confirm that Mark Sanchez is no longer with the network.
- 1:14:23There will be no further comment at this time.
- 1:14:26Fox Sports announced that future Hall of Fame quarterback Drew
- 1:14:29Brees will take Sanchez's place starting in Week 11.
- 1:14:33Sanchez has been off the air since an incident at the Westin
- 1:14:36Hotel in Indianapolis on October 4th.
- 1:14:38Sanchez, who was in town to call the Colts game that weekend,
- 1:14:41apparently drunkenly attacked an elderly truck driver, injuring
- 1:14:44him, before the truck driver fought back and stabbed Sanchez
- 1:14:47multiple times in the chest. The driver, who claims
- 1:14:50self-defense in the incident, is suing Sanchez in Spot and Fox
- 1:14:53Sports for an unspecified amount.
- 1:14:56Sanchez, who said in his only public comment that he is
- 1:14:59focused on his recovery, clearly is going to need some time to
- 1:15:02come to grips with how he butt fumble the golden opportunity
- 1:15:05away once again. Sanchez's trial date is set for
- 1:15:08December 11th. Guys, we are streaming live on

- 1:17:23about with you doing the national anthem November 16th,
- 1:17:2716th with the Bills in the books?
- 1:17:30Yeah, so I've been travelling around the United States for the
- 1:17:33past two years doing the national anthems for a lot of
- 1:17:36Major League sporting events. I'm at 20 out of 30 for the
- 1:17:41Major League Baseball. I've gotten the opportunity to
- 1:17:44do the New York Giants, the New York Knicks, the New Jersey
- 1:17:47Devils. It's been nothing less than
- 1:17:51exciting for all of these opportunities, that's for sure.
- 1:17:56I was astonished when I got to do the New York Giants.
- 1:18:00That was like, you know, the biggest deal to me besides from
- 1:18:03the garden. That was like a complete bucket
- 1:18:05list item that was crossed off my list.
- 1:18:08And now to do the Buffalo Bills is more than a dream come true.
- 1:18:13It's my favorite team. I ride or die for the Buffalo
- 1:18:15Bills. They're the way they play
- 1:18:17effects my mood the entire week. So as you can, I can imagine I
- 1:18:20am not a happy camper this week, but I'm just really excited
- 1:18:25because I get to go there this weekend.
- 1:18:27So, you know, I kind of was working with my team and my
- 1:18:31publicist and I was like, hey, like, you know, favorite team.
- 1:18:35Like I just freaking love them. And I watch all the games I go
- 1:18:40to as many as I can. And I was like, how cool would
- 1:18:43it be if we could get to do the Bills?
- 1:18:44And I knew it was so far fetched, of course, because, you
- 1:18:47know, they're pretty. I like to say they're a decently
- 1:18:49good team. And, you know, being in Buffalo
- 1:18:52and things like that, I'm sure they book out like pretty far in
- 1:18:55advance. But we were pretty persistent
- 1:18:58and they came back with the date.
- 1:18:59And yeah, I've known about this since June.
- 1:19:02So it's been quite the countdown.
- 1:19:04You know, it's interesting. I, I am, I root on Josh Allen.
- 1:19:08I know you have a, a love for Josh Allen.
- 1:19:11I think a lot of people out there have a lot of respect for
- 1:19:14the guy because of what he has done as an NFL player and for
- 1:19:17all the people that have taken shots at the guy.
- 1:19:20He seems pretty happy. He's married now.
- 1:19:22He says he's in a good place. And right now his team might
- 1:19:26sneak into the playoffs. This might be the first year in
- 1:19:28five years that they don't win the division.
- 1:19:32Getting a chance to go to Buffalo in a cold time of year.
- 1:19:36What? What are you going to be dressed
- 1:19:37in and how are you going to keep cover from possibly the snow or
- 1:19:42maybe the 20° weather? Yeah, so I actually, I'm really
- 1:19:46excited about my outfit. I got custom made Buffalo Bills
- 1:19:52boots from NFL shop. Actually they are the sickest
- 1:19:56thing ever. If I was on the camera I would
- 1:19:58100% show you, but you'll have to.
- 1:20:01Stay tuned and see on my Instagram they are bedazzled
- 1:20:04Buffalo Bills booty heels. I am pretty excited, pretty
- 1:20:10excited. And then I also have somebody
- 1:20:12very talented. Her name is Abigail Lee.
- 1:20:15She actually made me a custom bomber jacket with Josh Allen on
- 1:20:20it that I'm going to get to wear, so I'm very, very excited
- 1:20:24about that. Just layer up.
- 1:20:25You know, Buffalo gets cold, so I think I'm probably going to be
- 1:20:29sweating because I'm going to be anxious and nervous.
- 1:20:31But I'm sure as soon as I hit the last note I will go back to
- 1:20:34freezing. Have you ever seen Speedy
- 1:20:36actually sing any song? Billy Joel?
- 1:20:39I could never see Speedy sing the national anthem.
- 1:20:41I mean, if you gave him singing lessons, I don't think he can
- 1:20:45sing the national anthem. I mean, that's how bad Speedy's
- 1:20:49tune is. I mean, have you ever actually
- 1:20:52gone out there? I know you've trained singing
- 1:20:55for such a long time. Have you ever actually trained a
- 1:20:58young singer how to hit a note? I have not, no.
- 1:21:04So that's this is the first time for you.
- 1:21:06So if maybe we hook you up with Speedy for one night or one day,
- 1:21:10do you think you could teach him how to hit a decent note?
- 1:21:13So we could actually, I think. I feel like the one thing I'm
- 1:21:16pretty confident in is the national anthem, so I feel like
- 1:21:20I'd be able to kind of guide him through that.
- 1:21:21All right, Speedy, Are you ready to sing the national anthem?
- 1:21:25No. Yeah.
- 1:21:25Well, we're going to do this. We're going to hang up, get me
- 1:21:27the national anthem. Just the just the instrumental.
- 1:21:32Yeah, the instrumental national anthem.
- 1:21:34We're going to get Allie Burke and Speedy to sing the national
- 1:21:37anthem as a two out. Now, what do we call that?
- 1:21:42It's not a trio because you have to have three.
- 1:21:45I'm not. It's a duet.
- 1:21:46There you go. That's it.
- 1:21:47That's it. A duet.
- 1:21:49Ali, obviously your father's been in the studio.
- 1:21:51You got a chance to watch your father on our show.
- 1:21:54His his, his love is Otani for some reason.
- 1:21:58And you know, there's a lot about Otani that I don't like.
- 1:22:02And there's a lot about Otani your father does like Now, is
- 1:22:06there anything in particular your father is asking for for
- 1:22:09Christmas that maybe has something to do with the Dodgers
- 1:22:12or Watani? And if it is, I don't, I, I know
- 1:22:15he's probably watching. So I'm not going to throw
- 1:22:18anything under the bus where you're, you're giving away what
- 1:22:20you're going to come. But is there anything you're
- 1:22:22thinking about when it comes to Dodgers apparel or Otani apparel
- 1:22:27that you're thinking about getting him for Christmas?
- 1:22:29Well, it's actually funny because for the past like month
- 1:22:33or so I've had it in my mind that I knew that I was going to
- 1:22:37get him an Otani jersey for Christmas.
- 1:22:40And then of course one of his like best friends like gets him
- 1:22:431. And I was like, Oh well, I don't
- 1:22:45know what to get him now. So he stole.
- 1:22:47He stole my Thunder there. I've got ideas.
- 1:22:49I've got ideas. We could talk.
- 1:22:53I have ideas. I mean, Jack has this love for
- 1:22:57this guy. I don't know what it is now.
- 1:22:59I, I understand he's a great player and Jabba loves him too.
- 1:23:02I I I honestly believe that Jabba, I've never seen Jabba
- 1:23:06love a player since he started with he's begun his his path
- 1:23:12with us over the last past year. I don't think there's a player
- 1:23:15out there that he has mentioned more than Shayo Otani.
- 1:23:18It's like a love finish for this guy.
- 1:23:21And it seems like it's everybody that comes on this show too.
- 1:23:24They unbelievable. So I mean that's a whole nother
- 1:23:30thing. Are we ready?
- 1:23:30Are we ready for this? No, we're not ready for it.
- 1:23:32So we're we're waiting to get the instrumentals for the
- 1:23:35national anthem. We do.
- 1:23:37We'll get alley. Go ahead, Speedy.
- 1:23:38I was going to ask, last time we had you on the show, I think you
- 1:23:40were at #12 on your ballpark try.
- 1:23:42I think you were just go. You just came back from Arizona,
- 1:23:44I believe it was. And now you're at 22.
- 1:23:46I saw on your Instagram Kansas City was the last one.
- 1:23:48So talk about some of the experiences you had in that span
- 1:23:51with those 8 ballparks. And you have any particular
- 1:23:53favourites? Yeah, actually I got to do the
- 1:23:57Dodger in one of those, so that was pretty cool.
- 1:24:01As you can imagine, my dad was jumping for joy over that one.
- 1:24:05But again, it was another it. I actually got that one the same
- 1:24:10week I found out about the Bills.
- 1:24:12So that was kind of a crazy week.
- 1:24:14I think they let me know like a week or what was it 10 or 12
- 1:24:17days ahead of time? I don't even remember.
- 1:24:20But I literally got the call about the Buffalo Bills and I
- 1:24:23think like 2 days later I got the call about the Dodger.
- 1:24:26So it was a pretty crazy week. The Dodgers, I can't tell you
- 1:24:31I'm a Dodgers fan, but definitely doing the Dodgers was
- 1:24:36one of the bigger ones. I definitely thought that that
- 1:24:38would be one of my last two. I definitely think that Yankee
- 1:24:43Stadium will kind of be the one to close it out, but I
- 1:24:46definitely thought that the Dodgers would be right behind
- 1:24:48it. So it was really cool to get to
- 1:24:50do that opportunity. I got to go to Tampa to do the
- 1:24:55Rays. Gosh, I don't even.
- 1:24:58It's so hard to keep track of all these.
- 1:25:00Teams you. Did the Cubs you?
- 1:25:02Did I did the Cubs San. Diego, you said San Diego,
- 1:25:05right? Yeah, I've done all the
- 1:25:08California parks now. I've done the Cleveland
- 1:25:12Guardians. I've done, I've done, I've done
- 1:25:17quite a lot. Let me.
- 1:25:18Ask you a question. Let me ask you a question.
- 1:25:19What is up with the New York Yankees?
- 1:25:21I I mean, you and your father have spoken about this quite a
- 1:25:24few times and, and he says for some reason the Yankees are
- 1:25:28giving him the most problems to get you to sing the national
- 1:25:31anthem. So we're on this show right now.
- 1:25:33We've had a couple of Yankees. We have a Yankee on this show, a
- 1:25:37former Yankee, and we've had a bunch of Yankee analysts that
- 1:25:40still work with the Yankees. Let me ask the Yankees a
- 1:25:43question here. This girl deserves an
- 1:25:46opportunity to sing the national anthem.
- 1:25:48She's been in newspapers, she's been in magazines.
- 1:25:51She's been promoting it. Her father's been pushing it.
- 1:25:55She's got a publicist. What is the Yankees and their
- 1:25:59problems with singing the national anthem?
- 1:26:02And, and Speedy, I think you need to write a letter.
- 1:26:04I think you need to write a letter, letter to the New York
- 1:26:07Yankees and make sure that Ali gets a job.
- 1:26:09What do you say about that, Ali? I mean, that would be
- 1:26:12incredible. I definitely, I'm not sure why.
- 1:26:15I do know the Yankees obviously are like a freaking humongous
- 1:26:19deal, the huge corporation. But I think that, you know, the
- 1:26:23more that I build my resume, the more impressive it will be to
- 1:26:27them. I do also know, I don't correct
- 1:26:30me if I'm wrong, but I do believe they don't have an
- 1:26:32anthem singer every night. I think they do.
- 1:26:35They do have like an organist or something like that.
- 1:26:37So I definitely think it's a, it's a little bit of a tighter
- 1:26:41schedule than it is for like a. 100, Ali They're haters.
- 1:26:45That's what the Yankees organization are.
- 1:26:46They're a bunch of haters. They don't want somebody that is
- 1:26:50beautiful, that has the voice of an Angel, that can sing the
- 1:26:54national anthem with our hearts set on fire.
- 1:26:58Right, Speedy? Yeah, except I don't know how
- 1:27:00much traction I'm going to have to get some leeway into the
- 1:27:02Yankees organization. But we do have another one,
- 1:27:04Jabba, that might be able to get you in Ali.
- 1:27:07Yeah, I mean any, any, anything helps here.
- 1:27:10I definitely think that I to me, it's like if I could get the
- 1:27:15Buffalo Bills, I should be able to get the Yankees.
- 1:27:18I think so too. By the way, we are talking to
- 1:27:20pop singer and national anthem singer Allie Burke.
- 1:27:23She will be singing the National anthem for the Bills game
- 1:27:27November 16th versus the Bucks. Get a chance to see Baker, AKA
- 1:27:32the Mayfield and the one and only Joshua Allen out there and,
- 1:27:37and you get to watch the game. You get to hang out, maybe get
- 1:27:39to meet Josh Allen's beautiful wife.
- 1:27:42I mean, who's better than you? I feel like I have to ask you a
- 1:27:46question. Go ahead.
- 1:27:47Hippie, because I feel like you're so you have such strong
- 1:27:51opinions about sports and I think that's something so
- 1:27:53interesting and why a lot of people watch this.
- 1:27:56That was just because you have such like a passion for it.
- 1:27:59But I I don't know if you are like a buff.
- 1:28:02Well, English. I don't know if you are a
- 1:28:05Buffalo fan or a football fan, but what did you think about the
- 1:28:09game yesterday? Well, what do I think?
- 1:28:12And I, I know fish is going to say you can't do it, you can't
- 1:28:16do it. But I'm I'm going to tell you
- 1:28:17what I thought. I think that the Buffalo Bills
- 1:28:21problem right now is there's no consistency on their defensive
- 1:28:26side of the ball. 100% and there's too many guys hurt right
- 1:28:30now. Yes, I think there's no
- 1:28:32consistency. They lost Oliver for the season.
- 1:28:35I I think that they're, they're beating a dead horse right now.
- 1:28:39And, and I still think the Buffalo Bills are going to make
- 1:28:42the playoffs. And they're probably the only
- 1:28:44team in my eyes, as good as the Patriots have played, they
- 1:28:47played nobody and Baltimore Ravens, I think they'll sneak
- 1:28:50into the playoffs. I don't trust the Pittsburgh
- 1:28:52Steelers. As we watched last night, the
- 1:28:54Chargers lost their two starting tackles.
- 1:28:56I don't think they're I don't think they're they're going to
- 1:28:59they're going to be any good. And the Broncos, well, Bo Knicks
- 1:29:03in sophomore year, he hasn't looked good in this defense is
- 1:29:06still elite. They're not doing enough
- 1:29:08offensively to to I think to beat the Kansas City Chiefs, an
- 1:29:11old Kansas City Chiefs team that's not any good.
- 1:29:14So my opinion here is if bus, but if Buffalo could figure out
- 1:29:18the defensive side of the ball and and and get a chance to keep
- 1:29:23give Josh Allen an opportunity to win with their offensive side
- 1:29:27of the ball. I think I still think the
- 1:29:28Buffalo Bills could go all the way to the Super Bowl and maybe
- 1:29:31win the Super Bowl this year. It's crazy to say that that this
- 1:29:34is probably the year that you would think that they can't.
- 1:29:36But that's usually the time and the opportunity where we see
- 1:29:40teams come out of nowhere and go all the way to the Super Bowl
- 1:29:43and win. So I Josh Allen is absolutely
- 1:29:46the factor on if this team is going to go all the way.
- 1:29:49But I I don't think Kansas City's any of that any good
- 1:29:52either. The two best teams right now and
- 1:29:54the two teams I think they're going to challenge for a Super
- 1:29:56Bowl this year, as of right now, is still the Buffalo Bills and
- 1:30:01the Kansas City Chiefs. That's just my opinion right
- 1:30:03now. We'll see what happens.
- 1:30:04Still a lot more football left to be played, but the AFC is so
- 1:30:08bad. It's I think it's crazy how they
- 1:30:10they played so well against the Chiefs last week and then
- 1:30:14yesterday it's like they just threw it all away.
- 1:30:16OK, now Ali, Are you ready to sing with Speedy?
- 1:30:19Speedy. Well, we're going to.
- 1:30:21Ali's going to sing practically the whole song, but when the
- 1:30:25main parts come in, you're going to have to sit duet with her.
- 1:30:28Are you ready, Speedy? I'll try.
- 1:30:29All right, now listen. Yeah, you have to let Ali take
- 1:30:33over, of course. All right?
- 1:30:34And, and just kind of go undertone, undertone this, OK.
- 1:30:38Oh, say, can you see by the dawns early light, What's so
- 1:30:51proud at the twilight last? Gleam.
- 1:31:01Foods Broad stripes. And bright stars through the OR
- 1:31:14the help as we watch. We're so gallant.
- 1:31:45The oh say just that, straw spangles.
- 1:31:55Better yet. Or the
- 1:32:15Of. The.
- 1:32:18Oh, Ali bark, ladies and gentlemen.
- 1:32:21Fantastic. And Ali, I wasn't.
- 1:32:23Even prepared for that well. Listen, I thought you were great
- 1:32:27and, you know, Speedy was horrible, but that's that
- 1:32:29usually happens. You know, Speedy is just in his
- 1:32:32own little world. And sometimes I wonder I am far
- 1:32:35from a singer, Ali. No, he I think he's deaf in one
- 1:32:38ear. So, you know, sometimes he just.
- 1:32:40I did. Yeah, I did find out I have AI
- 1:32:42have some earwax issues that I could deal with.
- 1:32:44Yeah, well, that would be the case.
- 1:32:46All right, so your earwax and your earwax issues, Why don't
- 1:32:49you give her some of your Billy Joel take?
- 1:32:51All right, give us it ready. 123 Billy.
- 1:32:54When start the fire, it was always burning to the world.
- 1:32:59It's turning when start the fire going on and on and on.
- 1:33:11Look at Java's face. He's like, where?
- 1:33:13What the hell did I get myself into?
- 1:33:19Ali, before we let you go because you're fantastic and we
- 1:33:22want to get you on, How about we get you in the studio the next
- 1:33:25time you and your father, we won't talk about Itani because
- 1:33:28if we talk about Itani, he'll never, he'll never stop.
- 1:33:31But we'll get you and him, and we can.
- 1:33:33We can reconvene about where the Buffalo Bills are at that.
- 1:33:37Point Yeah, well, hopefully they win a Super Bowl for the first
- 1:33:40time in their team's history. I told my dad I was like, if the
- 1:33:44Buffalo Bills go to the Super Bowl, like I have to be there,
- 1:33:47so we have to start saving like last year.
- 1:33:51If the Buffalo Bills win the Super Bowl this year, Speedy is
- 1:33:56going to run through Buffalo butt ass naked right?
- 1:33:59Speedy, Honestly. I would too.
- 1:34:04You can do that. You're the nameless 1.
- 1:34:08Well, that's what he's saying to me.
- 1:34:09I think I am the shameless 1. And I probably would do it, but
- 1:34:12I I don't know if I'd do it for Buffalo.
- 1:34:15I would definitely do it for The Jets and and the Eagles won last
- 1:34:18year. I was very happy about that.
- 1:34:19But the Eagles are my second team.
- 1:34:21If The Jets ever win, I'm going to tell you this fans, if The
- 1:34:24Jets win the Super Bowl in the next 10 years, I promise you
- 1:34:28guys, during the parade I will cover my genital area with a cup
- 1:34:36and I will run butt ass naked throughout the parade.
- 1:34:39Yes, ladies and gentlemen, Jack, you could come and hang out with
- 1:34:46me. Ali, we love you, man, and we're
- 1:34:53we're so excited for you and we're going to get the Yankees
- 1:34:56to get you up there. The season is kind of right
- 1:35:00around the corner already. I mean think about it.
- 1:35:02What we got five months left. It's right there.
- 1:35:05I mean, why can't the Yankees have you sing opening day?
- 1:35:10How about that? Wow, that.
- 1:35:12Would actually be sick. We love that.
- 1:35:16Or maybe like the World Series next year?
- 1:35:19Yeah, well, I listen, I whatever we can do to help you out.

- 1:36:51That's right. And and maybe I'll have some
- 1:36:52pictures with Josh Allen. Baker Mayfield.
- 1:36:56There you go. I just want, I just want to
- 1:36:59exchange words to Josh Allen. That's all I want.
- 1:37:02Yeah, well, I mean, it's, if you think about how big Josh Allen
- 1:37:06is, he's 6 foot 5, so you'd probably be up to his belly
- 1:37:10button. So I mean, I know that's why I
- 1:37:13thought I, I met you. You're very small.
- 1:37:16So Josh Allen's a giant. So it's it's pretty cool.
- 1:37:21But I'm happy for you. I I think there's, there's so
- 1:37:25many opportunities you're going to have in the future.
- 1:37:27You're young, you're a beautiful girl and I, I wish nothing but
- 1:37:31the best for you. And we're fans of yours as much
- 1:37:34as you're fans of ours. And.
- 1:37:36I appreciate you guys so much. Thank you.
- 1:37:38Absolutely. November 17th, get your father
- 1:37:41to bring it down that it's going to be fun.
- 1:37:43We're going to have a lot of fun.
- 1:37:45So we definitely would love to enjoy an interview with the old
- 1:37:49and wonderful Ally Burke and Jack Burke, the one and only
- 1:37:53Otani lover himself. He'll come with a jersey at this
- 1:37:56point. Please don't.
- 1:37:58Oh my God, now wait, now he has his jersey.
- 1:38:00I'll come in my Josh Allen and he can come in his Otani.
- 1:38:03Well, oh, you're you could be 17 twins.
- 1:38:06There you go and all and I'll come in my Josh.
- 1:38:10Well, I'm not going to say it. I don't have a Jets Devante
- 1:38:13Adam's jersey from last year. I do actually, I do.
- 1:38:17No, I don't have that. I have a different jersey.
- 1:38:19It's either Danny Dimes or I'm going to bring about 17 that
- 1:38:23works or Jazz jism. I I I like that.
- 1:38:26I, I, I would love to piss off Yankee fans.
- 1:38:29So that would be something that I definitely want to wear.
- 1:38:31But we'll we'll figure it out. But Danny dives would complete
- 1:38:33the 17 five. I mean this jersey, I like this
- 1:38:35jersey. This is the new jet jersey.
- 1:38:37I don't know. I'll figure it out anyways, Ali,
- 1:38:40keep up the good work. We'll talk to you.
- 1:38:41Thank you, talk to you soon. Have a great night.
- 1:38:45Thank you, Ali Burr. I I wish nothing but the past.
- 1:38:47Your father's been really, really pushing her working
- 1:38:50Yankees to let her to sing, let her sing the national anthem.
- 1:38:53The Yankees have been the hardest to deal with.
- 1:38:55I don't know why. So if the Yankees or any of the
- 1:38:59executives for the New York Yankees are listening, let Allie
- 1:39:03Burke sing the national anthem. What is is is 82 games or
- 1:39:08something, 81 games in a season in Yankee Stadium.
- 1:39:10You can't give her one game at Yankee Stadium.
- 1:39:15What is wrong with them? I don't get it, Speedy.
- 1:39:17I don't get it. I'm lost with Java start making
- 1:39:20some calls. They.
- 1:39:23Don't like me either. They don't like, they don't like
- 1:39:27any of us. What else is new anyways?
- 1:39:30Yeah, So that was Allie Burke. She was sensational.
- 1:39:32And I want to apologize to the fans.
- 1:39:34We didn't have her on the video. There was something going on on
- 1:39:36her side. My producer should be figuring
- 1:39:39that out and should have tested before show started.
- 1:39:42But again, we're dealing with Speedy anyways.
- 1:39:46We call this Savior dear. Mom, what's one thing that you
- 1:39:50can't talk to me about? My sexual fantasy.
- 1:39:56It's not ideal, but if it's what music, it is not ideal.
- 1:39:59But if it's not ideal. But if it is, what music?
- 1:40:02You can't treble Stam a double stamp.
- 1:40:04You can't treble Stam a double stamp.
- 1:40:13Your tears. All right, guys, welcome back to
- 1:40:19Save Your Tears Week 10 of the NFL season.
- 1:40:23This is the compliment chorus where we will uncover the winner
- 1:40:27and shower him with his 51% genuine compliments.
- 1:40:33Oh, and it was a battle for sure this week.
- 1:40:36If you take a look at the board, some low dollar guys made some
- 1:40:40big points. Some big dollar guys didn't do
- 1:40:43so well like Sam Darnold. They didn't need any offense
- 1:40:46from him really. After the first quarter, Jacoby
- 1:40:49Bruce said a lot of garbage time.
- 1:40:50Jackson Dart, 2 touchdowns on the grounds.
- 1:40:53JSN Dominator always. Trey McBride big game.
- 1:40:58Let's see who it was. The winner of Savior Tears.
- 1:41:02Ohh the suspense. And it is the great Nathan as
- 1:41:10our champion. Go.
- 1:41:12With an 88.08 followed by Jarrett in second gets the
- 1:41:17silver 85 and then Speedy edges out Errol in the FedEx Cup
- 1:41:24standings by .1 for the bronze. I unfortunately came in dead
- 1:41:32last this week so I will be starting us off DJ Moore had
- 1:41:37four targets and no catches was real rough.
- 1:41:41I forgot Brenton Strange is on IR so I gave everyone who picked
- 1:41:45the Jaguars tight end Jonny Munt who was their starting tight end
- 1:41:50and he did basically nothing at one catch and that's pretty much
- 1:41:54it. We had JSM with 20 points, Roma
- 1:41:57Dunze with 20 points. No one really did anything at
- 1:42:00running back. Caleb and Jackson Dart ran in
- 1:42:04the way up there. Trey McBride, almost 30 points
- 1:42:07at tight end. Nathan, I'll start this off for
- 1:42:11you. You just, some people in this
- 1:42:16world dare to be different. Yum, Yum.
- 1:42:19Some of them dare to be great. Butt plug.
- 1:42:22And then some of them that dare to do the things they go 1
- 1:42:26Nathan Ramachandra. That's willing to do.
- 1:42:31My goodness. I got to go on a great.
- 1:42:32Performance once again Nathan, I think you are the MVP of the of
- 1:42:38the early NFL season of Savior. Time.
- 1:42:41You may be pound for pound the GOAT of this game.
- 1:42:47It's possible if we did all those advanced analytics, it
- 1:42:51wouldn't come back. We would enter it into computer.
- 1:42:54The computer would just spit out a piece of paper and it would
- 1:42:57say. Is bigger than yours.
- 1:42:59Nathan, no matter what, you the man, bro.
- 1:43:04Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you all.
- 1:43:12Right, who's next? Next will be Sebastian's Not in
- 1:43:15tonight, so we're going to go right to Java.
- 1:43:19Blow my back out Java. Well, I mean, I'm not blowing
- 1:43:23your back out, but I'll give you some compliments.
- 1:43:27I love Lee Sam. From from literally like the
- 1:43:32Dungeon of Nowheresville to now, I think you lead us in wins.
- 1:43:37I think it's just the aura of the blue blazer and the fact
- 1:43:41that you have nothing on your wall so just exudes just
- 1:43:44smartness straight into your brain because there's nothing
- 1:43:47blocking it. So it just goes right to you and
- 1:43:50it's showing because you're kicking all of our butts.
- 1:43:54No, I'm just. I'm just in the crowd watching
- 1:43:56the wedding every time you come down the aisle with somebody on
- 1:43:59a leash and. I need to blow up.
- 1:44:03Keep going net and don't hang anything on the wall and keep
- 1:44:06wearing your blazer because it sure shows working.
- 1:44:10Thank you, Jabba. That was great.
- 1:44:12Jabba like my SIM card? Next up on this list, it appears
- 1:44:16we're going to Mr. Errol Marx. Yeah, let's go, Errol.
- 1:44:21Is that your cucumber or are you happy to see me?
- 1:44:31Nathan Well, as I always do, and I always give you the most
- 1:44:36compliments. Hard working, dedicated we're
- 1:44:39at. You were at the jet game
- 1:44:40yesterday, then you came on our meeting.
- 1:44:43You do everything so precise and you work very, very hard.
- 1:44:47I, I see what you do. Even when we had the situation
- 1:44:51with Carmine's, you were, you got back on the phone with MJ
- 1:44:54and you worked out the Virgil thing.
- 1:44:56So I think you're, you're, you're more dedicated in this
- 1:44:59industry than a lot of people give you credit for.
- 1:45:02And I give you all the credit in the world now, as long as you
- 1:45:05don't. My rear end is burning.
- 1:45:07You burn out your rear end or. Lulu.
- 1:45:09Or. Carl plays with himself.
- 1:45:12Then you are the man. So thank you for all the.
- 1:45:16Hard work and the. Decision.
- 1:45:17You do. Thank you.
- 1:45:18Let's go. All right, now for a third place
- 1:45:22finisher. I want you for breakfast, lunch
- 1:45:25and dinner. All right, Nathan, as somebody

- 1:45:29Blazers, you're you're coming for my awful fantasy record.
- 1:45:33To tie me down. Save your tears Wins with my
- 1:45:36fantasy record so that it only has four wins, right?
- 1:45:38Now you want to jerk. Me off all this, all the luxury
- 1:45:40shrimp cocktail, the luxury chicken Curry.
- 1:45:43And. Jeez.
- 1:45:44Mom, all the gin and tonics that you want, Nathan, Maybe, maybe,
- 1:45:49maybe we'll add some blow pops in there too.
- 1:45:50Why not? Because you're, you're
- 1:45:53definitely very deserving. Of this I need Brittany also.
- 1:45:55You do a great job with everything that you do with
- 1:45:59bringing in our guests, bringing and setting up our live events.
- 1:46:01And now that you have a. 3rd 1/4 savior T Earth win coming for

- 1:46:12And finally, our second place finisher, our intern, Jared.
- 1:46:16I got to go back off now. Not gonna lie, I'm a little
- 1:46:22broken seeing these results. Miffen, congratulations.
- 1:46:27Well done this week. Once again, another big victory
- 1:46:30for you. You're one of the hardest
- 1:46:33working people I've seen, but you're I I'd also take into
- 1:46:36account and totally appreciate that you're always the first
- 1:46:39person to greet me every single time I join the call.
- 1:46:42Genuinely nice person. I'm always very entertained to
- 1:46:44see where you're coming from on your Google, on your camera,
- 1:46:47especially when I'm seeing you just walk outside while on the
- 1:46:50stream. Always great to see.
- 1:46:52And you're a fashion icon and you just got it down pat and
- 1:46:57well done, Sir. Thank you.
- 1:46:59Thank you. Thank you.
- 1:47:02Very much you already got a brown nose nith you don't have
- 1:47:04to keep going further in butt holes they.
- 1:47:06Were my pickle. Hey, my compliments are over.
- 1:47:11I understand my compliments still probably over 51%.
- 1:47:15Listen, if you don't like the results of save your tears, you
- 1:47:19can't cry about it. But I guess at least I'm making
- 1:47:21my. You got to save your tears.
- 1:47:23I'm making up for the wins for my fancy team, so that's good.
- 1:47:27I'll. Be joining.
- 1:47:28You I need a magnet fine glass. We'll be back.
- 1:47:32We'll be back for next week. Save your tears on Wednesday for
- 1:47:37Week 11. You know, it's, it's
- 1:47:41interesting. I'm trying to, I'm trying to
- 1:47:43figure out how everything works on this wonderful board of
- 1:47:47Disney over here. I'm like, still trying to figure
- 1:47:49out and everything is so deep slow tonight.
- 1:47:52I don't know what it is. But Speaking of slow, oh, let's
- 1:47:56get into some baseball, ladies and gentlemen, because it seems
- 1:48:00like the story keeps growing. ESPN's Jeff Passan reports
- 1:48:06Sunday that two Guardian pitcher reliever Ortiz and All Star
- 1:48:11closer Class A were charged with fraud and conspiracy and bribery
- 1:48:17from an alleged scheme where individual pitches they threw
- 1:48:23were rigged. They face over 60 years of jail
- 1:48:27if they are convicted. The US Attorney office in New
- 1:48:32York, the same one that investigated Terry Rozier's
- 1:48:35case, revealed evidence that Class A arranged with A better
- 1:48:43to throw specific pitches as early as May 2023.
- 1:48:49The prosecutors revealed Class A would deliberately throw balls
- 1:48:56on the first pitch to win bets on whether or not the first
- 1:49:01pitch would be a ball or a strike, and also would throw
- 1:49:05sliders to win bets on the under of how fast the first pitch of
- 1:49:12an ad pack would be. Ortiz joined the scheme after
- 1:49:18being traded to the Guardians in December of 2024 and started
- 1:49:22rigging his first pitches during his relief appearances in June
- 1:49:27of 2025. The MLB suspended several minor
- 1:49:31league prospects last year, including one Padre prospect who
- 1:49:37was banned for life. If Classe and Ortiz are guilty
- 1:49:43of all these charges, they would be subjected to the most harsh
- 1:49:48penalties baseball has ever given out since banning Pete
- 1:49:53Rose for life in 1989. Well, well, well, well.
- 1:50:01I don't think we're going to see Class A anymore.
- 1:50:05I. Mean unfortunately the best
- 1:50:07relief pitcher at one point in baseball and I don't think
- 1:50:12there's an argument to it. This guy was as dominant as any
- 1:50:15closure in baseball for a year and and probably one of the best
- 1:50:20really second halfs I've ever seen a picture ever have in
- 1:50:24relief. It's Mariano Rivera.
- 1:50:27This story is just crazy when you think about baseball and
- 1:50:32betting and and sports and betting and it's only going to
- 1:50:34get worse. It's not just Class A and, and
- 1:50:37Ortiz. There's going to be other guys.
- 1:50:40Otani was another. Otani got away.
- 1:50:42I wrote AI wrote a story. Go check it out on
- 1:50:44www.worldwideradio.com. Kind of comparing and making
- 1:50:49jokes about the Otani and Ortiz to Class A situation.
- 1:50:54It is very, very funny. So I'm I'm going to just let
- 1:50:57everybody know when you get a chance, go check it out.
- 1:50:59It is really, really good. I put a lot of time into it.
- 1:51:02I'm going to tell you this, if this is true and baseball
- 1:51:08investigates this the way they should have done with Otani, not
- 1:51:13only are these guys going to see time, baseball is going to have
- 1:51:17to figure out, just like basketball, how these, I guess,
- 1:51:22what do they call them speedy when it comes to pitches, hits,
- 1:51:26What do they call that? Props, prop bets have to be
- 1:51:30taken out of sports when it comes to DraftKings, FanDuel,
- 1:51:35Yeah. Honestly, it's horrible to think
- 1:51:38that players would do this knowing that baseball's been
- 1:51:42under scrutiny with the steroid era and all the significant
- 1:51:46situations that happened in the 90s for the for it to go on
- 1:51:50strike. I mean, if you haven't checked
- 1:51:52out the Montreal Expos documentary and Netflix, I mean,
- 1:51:55that pretty much ruined the Expos and why the Expos moved to
- 1:51:59Washington, that whole strike thing.
- 1:52:02And baseball might be going on strike after this year.
- 1:52:05And what if the baseball gods And what is Manfred going to do
- 1:52:10when this has been going to be brought up by the owners, by the
- 1:52:14GMs and by some of the players when they sit down with the
- 1:52:18players? I I mean, there's a lot that
- 1:52:20this story hasn't really shown yet.
- 1:52:23And the fact that they were tipping pitches or whatever the
- 1:52:26hell they were doing when it came to prop bets, it worries me
- 1:52:30that baseball and this has been going on a lot longer, even past
- 1:52:35the fact that Pete Rose has been suspended.
- 1:52:38Pete Rose was slammed by Bud Selig and Rob Manfred.
- 1:52:43I I really do believe that. Now, was Pete Rose right for
- 1:52:46what he did? No.
- 1:52:48He bet. He bet for his team when it came
- 1:52:52to baseball. Does that make him right?
- 1:52:54No. But now that betting has become
- 1:52:58legalized, these players are starting to see the opportunity
- 1:53:03they have to make money. And not only money that they're
- 1:53:07getting the millions and millions of dollars from
- 1:53:09ownership and the sell sales for their jerseys and all the other
- 1:53:13stuff, autograph signings. No, it's not enough for these
- 1:53:16guys. Now they're using their their
- 1:53:22ability to go out there and, and call prop bets on their pitches.
- 1:53:27And, and again, this is going to happen more often than we could
- 1:53:32even speak about because I don't even think it's going to be
- 1:53:35pitchers. It's going to be hitters.
- 1:53:37It's going to be it's going to be coaches and managers and DMS.
- 1:53:42This is still going to grow legs.
- 1:53:45If anybody thinks that baseball, if they find a way or the FBI
- 1:53:49finds a way to sentence these guys to 60 years, which I
- 1:53:54believe baseball and the FBI will find a way to make a deal.
- 1:53:58And these guys probably see a little bit of time, not 60 years
- 1:54:01deal because of the money they have.
- 1:54:03And obviously in that they're superstar players.
- 1:54:07Well, one of them is a superstar player.
- 1:54:10I just think that the facts here are still not out.
- 1:54:13I don't think there's enough facts to point our fingers to
- 1:54:16what Class A and Ortiz did. What I do know is if the FBI is
- 1:54:21involved with it and the FBI has dropped a hammer on the, the,
- 1:54:27the, the reports that we're hearing on these two players,
- 1:54:31obviously there's some truth to it, just like there was some
- 1:54:34truth without honey. Now innocent until proven
- 1:54:37guilty, as Job always says. I think baseball needs to
- 1:54:41investigate this even more deeper because when you look at
- 1:54:44basketball and you look at the Terry Rozier thing, and Terry
- 1:54:48Rozier has been doing this a significant amount of time.
- 1:54:52And then basketball investigated and let him play.
- 1:54:56And then the FBI dug deeper and then obviously arrested him
- 1:55:00after the fact. So I don't think Class A and I
- 1:55:03don't think Ortiz are the only guys in baseball that have done
- 1:55:06this. I think this has been going on
- 1:55:08since sports propping and sports betting has been legalized in
- 1:55:12really a significant amount of states, Baseball and FanDuel and
- 1:55:17DraftKings. It's been 2 years now that this
- 1:55:19is being legalized here in the States and in a lot of different
- 1:55:23states. I think I don't know how many
- 1:55:24states, how many states did you know that how many states right
- 1:55:27now are legalized when it comes to sports betting?
- 1:55:30So there's 39 states right now in the United States that have
- 1:55:34legalized FanDuel, DraftKings and all The MGM, all the sports
- 1:55:38betting. When it becomes even bigger
- 1:55:42throughout the country, when all the states are going to legalize
- 1:55:46it and make it legalized because I don't even think it's
- 1:55:48legalized in Nebraska yet. Right job.
- 1:55:50But it's not. It's not we'll.
- 1:55:52Be one of the last states. Right.
- 1:55:54And you're a Republican state, right, Jabba?
- 1:55:57Well, we're we're, we're actually one of the only.
- 1:56:01We're a weird, we're a weird state.
- 1:56:03So we have a unicameral, which is it's, yeah, it's weird.
- 1:56:06So. So Florida is not a state that's
- 1:56:08legalized it either. So there a lot of the Republican
- 1:56:12states are fighting it right now for some.
- 1:56:14Reason like we have like we have a sports book like in Lincoln,
- 1:56:18but you can't like you can only you have to go to the casino.
- 1:56:21You don't have like the, the apps or whatever.
- 1:56:24But the crazy part is if you go, I mean anywhere like in our
- 1:56:29town, if you go, it's technically it's Omaha, but it's
- 1:56:33in Iowa because it's called the boats, because the land where
- 1:56:37you walk in is Nebraska, but where you go to gamble and
- 1:56:40everything is on water, which the water is owned by Iowa.
- 1:56:44I love it when you say WADA WADA.
- 1:56:46So Iowa, you can gamble. So when you can drive 45 minutes
- 1:56:50from my house and legally gamble like it obviously Geo tracks
- 1:56:54you, but like when you're sitting there, you can bet on
- 1:56:55your phone. Yeah, you can.
- 1:56:57You can go to the sports book here in Nebraska and bet.
- 1:57:01You just can't do it like on your.
- 1:57:03Phone I'm, I'm worried that not just, you know, baseball, I
- 1:57:07think professional sports and we're gonna hear eventually
- 1:57:11we're gonna hear a prop thing with hockey and there's going to
- 1:57:14be players because listen, think about it.
- 1:57:17Remember the Chicago Blackhawks, remember that situation that
- 1:57:21happened with one of the hockey players and, and how everything
- 1:57:24was just like brushed under the rug and nobody's even talking
- 1:57:27about it. Still, I haven't seen a
- 1:57:28documentary with what happened in Chicago with the, the
- 1:57:32Blackhawks and certain players really didn't protect a specific
- 1:57:36player that was just sexually abused And, and the league
- 1:57:41obviously fired. Well, they fired Quinnville and,
- 1:57:45and then obviously got another job with the NHL twice.
- 1:57:48And, and he, he just seems to get another job because he's a
- 1:57:51great coach, but he did nothing to protect his players.
- 1:57:54You, you see that sports and teams know how to hide things.
- 1:57:59They know how to bury things because they got a lot of money.
- 1:58:02It's it's the league and and every year it's something new.
- 1:58:06Every year there's something that obviously creates a hitting
- 1:58:10factor of what the sport has delivered that specific year.
- 1:58:15And what I mean by deliver it is the specific things that
- 1:58:18happened during the season that you kind of shake your head.
- 1:58:21Nobody talks about that. That story is completely brushed
- 1:58:23under the rug. Nobody even mentions that story
- 1:58:25anymore. And then how about the player in
- 1:58:28the NHL that was doing? Who's the player that played for
- 1:58:32the Anaheim Ducks? The offensive player that is
- 1:58:36played for Edmonton last year, Speedy, you of all people pull
- 1:58:39things out of yours. Yeah.
- 1:58:41Corey Perry. Corey Perry.
- 1:58:42Remember that story, Speedy, Do you remember that?
- 1:58:45Yeah. He was allegedly investigated, I
- 1:58:47think with one of the flight attendants, I believe it was,
- 1:58:49but that was wrongfully convicted.
- 1:58:50So, so the, the story with Corey Perry was, is that something was
- 1:58:55going on with him and his wife and there was some kind of like
- 1:58:59sex triangle happening and, and, and Corey Perry kept his job.
- 1:59:04He lost his job with the Chicago Blackhawks and then somebody,
- 1:59:07some team picked him up. If I'm not, was it Anaheim,
- 1:59:10somebody picked him up. There was Dallas first, then
- 1:59:13Edmonton after that, whatever, somebody picked him up.
- 1:59:15But people forget about that story as well.
- 1:59:17So the NHL hid that and this with sports betting and sports
- 1:59:22propping. Now that we were talking about
- 1:59:25Porter, Michael Porter junior's brother who was suspended for
- 1:59:29life because of his his situation.
- 1:59:32Nobody's talking about Michael Porter's brother anymore.
- 1:59:35It's they completely forgot about it.
- 1:59:36Now you got Terry Rozier, Chauncey Phillips, Damon Jones.
- 1:59:40So now, now, now you have baseball, you have Class A, you
- 1:59:43have Ortiz. Oh, Tony's going to be buried.
- 1:59:45Now the story about, oh, Tony is buried.
- 1:59:49Why? Because he was, he wasn't
- 1:59:51convicted. His everybody was obviously
- 1:59:54thrown into jail. Everything was taken care of and
- 1:59:57baseball kind of just brushed it under the rug.
- 1:59:59Now you have two other guys. What is it going to take for
- 2:00:03ownership? And the commissioners of every
- 2:00:07single sport to to this completely push this out of the
- 2:00:11sport. The prop betting should be
- 2:00:12completely thrown away from professional sports.
- 2:00:16You want to bet on a game, you want to bet on the scores, the
- 2:00:19over unders that's been around for in Vegas for such a long
- 2:00:22time, do that. If it's not horse racing, there
- 2:00:26should not be prop betting in professional sports because you
- 2:00:30know that players and coaches can fiddle around with it
- 2:00:34because they're the ones that know the inside scoop of what's
- 2:00:37going on before the game and after the game.
- 2:00:42So that's my opinion. Yeah.
- 2:00:43You always wonder too, like the we talk about basketball players
- 2:00:46controlling their own outcomes too.
- 2:00:47And if if you're if you're pitching Java, you know, this
- 2:00:50you. I mean, I don't know if you're
- 2:00:51like calling every pitch on your own because the catchers are
- 2:00:53doing it to the managers doing it too.
- 2:00:54But like you're still having control.
- 2:00:55OK, I could throw a ball. I'll spike this pitch or I'll
- 2:00:58make it look like it's not going to be a strike, something like
- 2:01:01that. It's easier to do that than if
- 2:01:02you're a hitter and you have a prop bet.
- 2:01:04OK, I'm going to go get a I'm going to get a home run today.
- 2:01:06Anytime home run or I'm going to get two hits today.
- 2:01:09Like it's a little harder to control that kind of outcome,
- 2:01:11but when you're a pitcher makes it even harder.
- 2:01:13Same kind of thing with basketball players betting the
- 2:01:14under too. So it's a tricky situation.
- 2:01:16I agree with you, Errol. Like Ohtani's going to be buried
- 2:01:18because, OK, he's not a minor league guy that's bet betting
- 2:01:21400 bets to the Padres kid or the the Pirates one that was
- 2:01:24caught last year with a, with a cell phone in his hand or
- 2:01:26something like that. So like, there's a lot of
- 2:01:28different cases where they're just going to make an example
- 2:01:30out of the smaller guys. And besides Class A just take
- 2:01:33down everyone else that goes with it.
- 2:01:35And baseball's been the hardest one so far on these players
- 2:01:38until this recent NBA scandal. But still, Class A, he was a
- 2:01:41superstar in Cleveland. I mean, around the league.
- 2:01:44He's not. He didn't play for the Yankees.
- 2:01:46He didn't play for the Mets. He hasn't played for the Sox or
- 2:01:49the Dodgers. So if you don't know baseball,
- 2:01:51you probably don't know Emmanuel Class A, You really don't unless
- 2:01:55you're a baseball, baseball enthusiast fan.
- 2:01:58But he is a star. He's considered a star because
- 2:02:01of what he did the year that he was a so dominant.
- 2:02:04And I, we haven't seen a dominant year like that since
- 2:02:07Mariano Rivera. I mean, think about it before
- 2:02:10the playoff run, which he was horrible in the playoffs.
- 2:02:12Maybe he was tipping pitches and maybe there was maybe he was
- 2:02:16getting paid during the playoffs.
- 2:02:17And why the Guardians didn't go to the World Series and the
- 2:02:20Yankees did, Who knows? Who knows what the FBI has
- 2:02:24investigated on? All I'm saying is, if you
- 2:02:27didn't, if you're not a baseball enthusiast, you're not a
- 2:02:30baseball fan, you probably don't know a manual classic.
- 2:02:33That's all I'm saying on that. It's all interesting to me.
- 2:02:35It's, it's also readily available, like now everybody
- 2:02:38can see it. Obviously it was it, it was
- 2:02:41happening before all of this stuff was, you know, in the
- 2:02:44forefront of of, you know, commercials and so on so forth.
- 2:02:48And it's you. You brought up something
- 2:02:49earlier. It's just, you know, it's like
- 2:02:51hitters and all the other stuff like they showed high
- 2:02:54highlights. I don't know if you is it a low
- 2:02:56light now? I don't think it's a highlight.
- 2:02:58But it's not a highlight. There was a pitch that there was
- 2:03:00a pitch like a pitch he was supposed to throw for a ball,
- 2:03:05which he did. But Andy Pye has swung at it.
- 2:03:07So it's like, you know, and they did that story and the guy, you
- 2:03:11know, lost money or whatever and he sent like he sent us sad face
- 2:03:14or whatever. And it's just I, I don't know
- 2:03:18how involved like they get with this because it's like, is the
- 2:03:22risk the reward factor? I don't know where you're just
- 2:03:26not thinking honestly, because hey, I'm already making this
- 2:03:30amount of money. Why would do I need the extra?
- 2:03:32Like is it is it an addiction thing where you just have to
- 2:03:36have something else riding on it because you're not making as
- 2:03:38much money on the back end as you are to throw the baseball,
- 2:03:41right? And if you get caught, it really
- 2:03:43doesn't do anything for you, but make you look like an idiot in
- 2:03:46more ways. And one, so I, I don't, I don't
- 2:03:50get it. I don't know how or where like
- 2:03:53it, it comes and you get, so you get so far involved in it where
- 2:03:57you don't know where it starts or where it ends.
- 2:03:59And you know, you might have messed with some wrong people
- 2:04:01where you know, we've, we've heard examples obviously on this
- 2:04:04show of like, Hey, you're going to keep doing this or something
- 2:04:07bad is going to happen. So I, it's just, it sucks for
- 2:04:10sports in general, but it's become so in the forefront of,
- 2:04:14of what it is. You know, there is going to be
- 2:04:18these things that happen because people are going to get caught
- 2:04:20up and obviously they have. And you know, I think it's
- 2:04:24probably not the end of it and we'll kind of see what happens,
- 2:04:27but it just the risk reward factor just does not make sense
- 2:04:30to me whatsoever. It's kind of scary.
- 2:04:33It's kind of scary where sports is going when it comes to sports
- 2:04:36betting. And I think that anybody that
- 2:04:39understands what it what it, what has happened over the last
- 2:04:44couple of years, Everybody keeps talking about Pete Rose.
- 2:04:46Pete Rose is not inducted into the Hall of Fame.
- 2:04:49This is one of the greatest hitters of all time.
- 2:04:52This guy is not sitting in the Hall of Fame yet because he bet
- 2:04:56on baseball. And now we're we're seeing how
- 2:04:59sports betting has become a national, you know, phenomenon.
- 2:05:04There's so much money to be made.
- 2:05:06And it's not just fans and handicappers, it's players now,
- 2:05:10now professional at, you know, professional sports teams and
- 2:05:14and professional commissioners, the commissioners out there
- 2:05:17saying that you can bet on sports, but you can't bet on
- 2:05:19your own sport. So when is it not going to be
- 2:05:23stopped? Why?
- 2:05:24Why are the commissioners of professional sports allowing
- 2:05:27these players to bet props on other sports if they're not
- 2:05:31involved with it? If you're doing 1, you should be
- 2:05:34doing it for the other. That's my opinion.
- 2:05:37You should not be allowed to make prop bets as far as when it
- 2:05:41comes to professional sports. So if that's the case, just
- 2:05:44completely. You say in any like so if you're
- 2:05:47if you're a basketball player, you can't make prop bets in
- 2:05:49football. Though I, what I'm hearing right
- 2:05:52now is the way these commissioners are working is
- 2:05:55that if you're playing professional basketball, you can
- 2:05:57make prop bets in professional football.
- 2:06:00I don't, I don't think you should be allowed to do that
- 2:06:03because here's the reason why. Because if, if you're getting
- 2:06:08that feeling or what are you, you're getting hungry betting on
- 2:06:12other sports. You're going to bet on your own
- 2:06:13sports. You're going to get other people
- 2:06:15to bet for you under their names in other sports.
- 2:06:19There has to be some kind of change in professional sports or
- 2:06:23figure out a way where you can keep this from happening,
- 2:06:26because if you don't, it's only going to get worse.
- 2:06:29There's a massive amount of money to be made.
- 2:06:32As a matter of fact, last year in a in New York, there was like
- 2:06:36$350 billion made in sports betting.
- 2:06:39Some crazy amount of money that was made.
- 2:06:42Think about it that way. How many of that money was made
- 2:06:46from professional athletes betting on props?
- 2:06:49Think about it. You have all that money, you
- 2:06:52have hundreds of millions of dollars.
- 2:06:54Think about it this way. Dak Prescott makes 60 million a
- 2:06:57year. If Dak Prescott took $1,000,000
- 2:07:01and put it into prop bets, that's pennies to him if he made
- 2:07:05if. If he put $100,000 of that
- 2:07:07money, he can make double that $1,000,000.
- 2:07:11So it's really nothing to be a loss of.
- 2:07:13And if he has an inside scoop on what's going on with players and
- 2:07:18other players from other teams, because he's friends with them,
- 2:07:20he can prop it in any of those in in with any of those teams or
- 2:07:24any other sport because he has connections in the NBA,
- 2:07:27connections in the NHL, because he's friends, he's he's friends
- 2:07:30with these guys. So.
- 2:07:31But you you've seen where that's got caught before.
- 2:07:34Like you look at the baseball umpire who was doing it with his
- 2:07:37buddy and then, you know, that's how it comes, that's how it
- 2:07:41comes back to it. So I, I mean, I don't, I kind of
- 2:07:44disagree because it's, it's easy to do because we all have
- 2:07:48walking computers, right? We all have our phones.
- 2:07:50So you can check up the live stats and all the other stuff.
- 2:07:52So I understand what you're saying, but can you also, you
- 2:07:56can't take away we live in a free country, right?
- 2:07:59Like I, I see where you're coming with it, but I don't
- 2:08:02think you can take that prerogative away from you as a
- 2:08:06human being. Like if I want to gamble, I want
- 2:08:08to gamble If and it's not on my sport, I don't feel like you
- 2:08:11can, you should take that away from me because you know, that's
- 2:08:14like that's like saying or do you take all of the March
- 2:08:17Madness pools that are in every? But your job, I understand what
- 2:08:20you're saying, but you're allowing gambling and prop
- 2:08:23editing in other sports. So these players in these
- 2:08:26athletes know that they can get away with doing that.
- 2:08:29They can do it in their own sports.
- 2:08:31So I. Think a smart, a smart, ethical,
- 2:08:34morally correct person will not do it?
- 2:08:37How many people have played the game of baseball, basketball,
- 2:08:40football and how many have got caught?
- 2:08:41Let's just look at the numbers, if we're really gonna look.
- 2:08:43At Java I I think this is just the top of the iceberg.
- 2:08:47I'm. Understanding what you're
- 2:08:48saying, but there's more that haven't been on their own sport
- 2:08:51than there is that have. I I got you.
- 2:08:53That's because nobody has been caught yet, but it's going to
- 2:08:56happen really who who besides these other guys that you're
- 2:09:00mentioned? Oh, Tony got caught, but your
- 2:09:03baseball international superstar was put.
- 2:09:06You know, they decided to push it under the rug because he's
- 2:09:08Shayo Otani and he's their superstar.
- 2:09:11So if you're not a name, they don't care about you.
- 2:09:14Think about it that way. Look at what Porter.
- 2:09:17Junior. Porter got suspended for life
- 2:09:19because he used himself as a prop.
- 2:09:22Bet you're going to tell me Porter is the only player in the
- 2:09:24last two years that has proppetted his own his own
- 2:09:29basketball game? Not a chance in hell.
- 2:09:32And that's why I believe. Proppetting.
- 2:09:34So why is he the only one that's been caught then?
- 2:09:37Because obviously they're investigating it.
- 2:09:39You, you can't, you can't prosecute somebody that's doing
- 2:09:42it in a different way or using somebody to, to, to make those
- 2:09:45prop bets. So you have to investigate it.
- 2:09:48You can't just assume that he's the only one that's doing it.
- 2:09:52I'm sure there's a ton of players doing it right now and
- 2:09:54the FBI is investigating it right now.
- 2:09:57They're just. So.
- 2:09:58I think prop bets would. You say what?
- 2:10:00What percent would you say is I guarantee?
- 2:10:0228 percent, 28% of sports, at least 28 to 30% of these
- 2:10:08athletes are betting, making prop bets on either people that
- 2:10:12that players that they know in the league that are telling them
- 2:10:15they're not playing or in other leagues.
- 2:10:17OK. No chance?
- 2:10:18No. Chance.
- 2:10:19No chance. It's OK.
- 2:10:20No, I I disagree. I've been in a lot of clubhouses
- 2:10:23and I can promise you it's not that much.
- 2:10:25I would say they make prop bets on like, I want ground two
- 2:10:28touchdowns, so I'm going to bet it because I know him.
- 2:10:30You got to understand that's a respect thing.
- 2:10:32I would never call another athlete in another sport and be
- 2:10:35like, hey, are you playing tonight like?
- 2:10:37You might not, you might not, but there are other guys so.
- 2:10:41You're saying over 1/4 of the athletes that are playing all of
- 2:10:44sports are? Over 1/4.
- 2:10:45Friends and. Over 1/4 / 1/4, you said 28%.
- 2:10:49Yeah. Over 1/4, yeah, 20, no chance,
- 2:10:53yeah, OK, there's no chance. How about this?
- 2:10:55I'm not going to mention any names, but I know fighters that
- 2:10:59have bet prop bets with fighter, other fighters that they know
- 2:11:04that on certain specific things. So.
- 2:11:06No, I I understand that. But you're, you're talking about
- 2:11:09once I'm talking about you're talking all sports.
- 2:11:12There's no way. OK, so there's European football
- 2:11:17and if you want to talk about FIFA and how FIFA has been
- 2:11:21absolutely politically attacked because of who runs FIFA and
- 2:11:25what they were doing, you're going to tell me right now
- 2:11:28European football, which is legal over there in sports
- 2:11:32betting even before us, they're not prop betting.
- 2:11:35And what does it matter if it's legal?
- 2:11:36Who? Cares.
- 2:11:37It's professional sport, it's a professional.
- 2:11:39But it doesn't. Matter.
- 2:11:40It's legal. It's it's legal.
- 2:11:42You can't bet on your own prop bets.
- 2:11:44We're not talking about that. We're talking about prop
- 2:11:46betting. You cannot be.
- 2:11:48AI believe DraftKings and FanDuel should absolutely
- 2:11:52terminate prop betting for players.
- 2:11:55Absolutely terminate. Talking about it's legal, so.
- 2:11:58It betting is legal, but you're propping these athletes
- 2:12:02understand that they have an inside scoop and certain certain
- 2:12:06athletes are playing certain athletes leagues from different
- 2:12:09leagues. How many leagues are over there
- 2:12:11in Europe? There's a ton of soccer leagues
- 2:12:14and they're all connected. They're all friendly and stuff.
- 2:12:16They know that that guy's not playing, he's not 100% healthy.
- 2:12:19What are they going to do? They're going to prop bet on
- 2:12:21that specific bet. That's what they're going to do.
- 2:12:24So honestly it it to me, it's hurting professional sports,
- 2:12:28it's hurting the betting situation.
- 2:12:30It was fine when you were betting on games.
- 2:12:31The over unders the money line that you there's really nothing
- 2:12:36you can really change with that. It's very hard to to change the
- 2:12:39factor there. Honestly, the number one thing
- 2:12:42they need to do is get rid of prop bets.
- 2:12:44They have to do something or put it put something on these prop
- 2:12:48bets that don't give these players an opportunity to find a
- 2:12:53way to make money or cheat or do whatever.
- 2:12:55Whatever you call it, the FBI calls it when it comes to
- 2:12:58illegal, you know, illegal figure I don't know what do they
- 2:13:03call this speedy illegal. What I don't know illegal
- 2:13:05betting. So it's, and I, I wonder with
- 2:13:09my, my, my producer over here, if his head so far up his ass
- 2:13:12tonight, he doesn't speak and when he does speak, he doesn't
- 2:13:16say anything that really helps the conversation.
- 2:13:18Well, let me help out a little bit.
- 2:13:19They came out with something today in response to this class
- 2:13:24say thing that the sports books in the United States are going
- 2:13:28to establish a nationwide $200 betting limit on baseball wagers
- 2:13:33centered on individual pitches. Prohibit these types of bets to
- 2:13:37be included in parlays so that it's less manipulative, and they
- 2:13:42announced that in conjunction with baseball today.
- 2:13:46I don't. I think they'll find.
- 2:13:47I think they'll find a way to figure our way around that.
- 2:13:51I There's just I. See, but you're just, yeah,
- 2:13:54you're just looking and and fish is 100% right.
- 2:13:57But just because it's all these ones that do it here, you forget
- 2:14:01there's overseas betting that like people use that have been
- 2:14:04using for years, that probably use it just as much if not more.
- 2:14:09You think our sports are bad? Just look at soccer forever,
- 2:14:12bro, forever. Soccer for sure, like all over
- 2:14:16the world. Can't call it soccer.
- 2:14:18Watch those guys. Football, they don't like that.
- 2:14:20Did you watch that old 30 for 30, the two Escobars with the
- 2:14:23narco soccer? You want to talk about like rig
- 2:14:26stuff, man? Like there's like levels of it.
- 2:14:29There's real levels of this type of.
- 2:14:31Thing. I just think that there has to
- 2:14:33be something done with this prop betting.
- 2:14:35They have to do something with it.
- 2:14:37And I don't even think that making rules and figuring and
- 2:14:39configuring it, I think you either banish it or figure out a
- 2:14:43way where you could only make a certain amount of prop bets a
- 2:14:47day and it like a minimum amount of prop bets a day where it can
- 2:14:52affect. Are you talking minimum like a
- 2:14:54total number of bets or like a dollar?
- 2:14:56I don't know. I don't.
- 2:14:57Know, but you know, then you're just going to go to from one
- 2:15:00sports book to the other, making the same bets and that's what's
- 2:15:04going. To happen, I would have to think
- 2:15:05about it. What I would have to do is I
- 2:15:07would have to think about it and like put two and two together
- 2:15:10and maybe that's what I'll do. I'll figure out and I'll figure
- 2:15:12out a way and then write an article about it there.
- 2:15:15There's got to be some way in in the way sports betting is where
- 2:15:20you can critique it, where these players are not using prop bets
- 2:15:27in their own favor. I think it's really, really bad
- 2:15:29right now and I think it's only going to get worse.
- 2:15:32I love taking prop bets during the Super Bowl, like Gatorade
- 2:15:34color coin flip. Like certain they literally they
- 2:15:38they cap those like certain bets because there are so many Super
- 2:15:42Bowls a little bit different, but they do cap those profits in
- 2:15:45in certain in certain instances. So I don't know if that would be
- 2:15:49like, OK, you can take say 10 and it can't total over, you
- 2:15:54know, 1000 bucks or something. Like there's probably something
- 2:15:57that's just, I mean, it would be tough to do probably.
- 2:16:01But like Fish said, it's like, OK, I'm going to put I'm going
- 2:16:04to load up on 1000 bucks here. But then I can go to, you know,
- 2:16:09ESPN bet and do another, you know, 1000 bucks.
- 2:16:13That's where there's a will, there's a way, especially with
- 2:16:15the addiction of gambling and chasing.
- 2:16:18That that's another thing you can and I think there has to be
- 2:16:20a way with sports books. You you're there's a million
- 2:16:23sports books. So there has to be some kind of
- 2:16:26way where you can only with your Social Security use one sports
- 2:16:32book. Well, you can't jump from one or
- 2:16:34the other. That's the only way you can
- 2:16:35configure it where you know that somebody is not cheating is
- 2:16:39using your own Social Security. It's connected to you.
- 2:16:41There's got to be something that works in that kind of favor
- 2:16:45where it can kind of like close any possibility of these guys
- 2:16:51cheating or using sports betting and propping for their own
- 2:16:56advantage. I just, I don't know what it is.
- 2:16:59It's kind of bothering me because I just think that these
- 2:17:03guys, they have so much money and they're swimming in my it's
- 2:17:06like Scrooge Mcduck. You have Dak Prescott making $60
- 2:17:09million. He could swim in that money,
- 2:17:11$1,000,000 to him in sports betting is nothing, nothing.
- 2:17:15I try to give that example to my students and none of them know
- 2:17:18who Scrooge Mcduck is. Man it sucks.
- 2:17:21They just, it's like well past. Duck, tails duck.
- 2:17:24Tails, trust me, I know. Trust me.
- 2:17:26I grew up on you. Believe this game right now.
- 2:17:28This Packer, Packer and Eagle game.
- 2:17:30I mean, seriously, that's unbelievable.
- 2:17:32Tommy Scoops is playing me right now and he's real close to
- 2:17:36beating me, but nobody wants to score for either one of these
- 2:17:38teams. I got Jordan love.
- 2:17:40I don't I I could use Jordan Love but I don't know if if I
- 2:17:44lose if Jordan Love doesn't put up.
- 2:17:45The don't worry fish, all I need is like a touchdown from Saquon
- 2:17:48or whatever and like we're pretty much back in you.
- 2:17:50Don't have Saquon. You don't have Saquon in this
- 2:17:52league. I'm sorry, not on this league,
- 2:17:53no. No, I do have Romeo Dobbs on
- 2:17:55this team. So.
- 2:17:56You got Dobbs and like Gotter. Gotter, I have Saquon in my
- 2:17:59other league. That's why I'm I'm steady
- 2:18:02closely watching like both my leagues or whatever.
- 2:18:04But it's all right, I'm only caring about the playoffs for my
- 2:18:07revenge against Sarel later on when we get to the.
- 2:18:09Final ball bat it's. Going to be me very sarel.
- 2:18:12Listen, I I think it's going to to be me and Derek.
- 2:18:15That's what I think. Hey, you know I, Errol, I know
- 2:18:23some guy who's right over next to me that produces on this show
- 2:18:26who has a great statistic he wants to share with everybody.
- 2:18:29All right, let's go. Hopefully his head's out of his
- 2:18:32ass tonight because it it's the whole show, half of the show.
- 2:18:35His head's been so far up his anus I don't even know if he
- 2:18:38knows his own name. We call this speedy stat of the
- 2:18:41week the. Speedy well you may run like me,
- 2:18:47but you hit like start of the week.
- 2:18:52So Fish it will be a stat of a guy that is non neither Errol or
- 2:18:55on Errol's fantasy team, not Derek or Fish's fantasy team.
- 2:18:59And that is Jonathan Taylor for this week.
- 2:19:01He had 228 yards after contact, the most of any running back in
- 2:19:04a game since 2017, and now has 257 more yards from contact
- 2:19:11ahead of the next highest running back, which is Devon HN
- 2:19:14as a total now, a total now of 857 and or 891 HN, not 634 is in
- 2:19:23second right now. And then no other running back
- 2:19:25has more than 500. You're talking about Taylor,
- 2:19:28Jonathan Taylor. Well.
- 2:19:30Just killing it. I will tell you this, I got
- 2:19:32Jonathan Taylor an hour league. I'm loving it.
- 2:19:35I don't even have to. I didn't even need Dak Prescott.
- 2:19:37I Justin Fields as my starting quarterback.
- 2:19:40He didn't throw more than 50 semi yards to this week.
- 2:19:44I didn't need them. I didn't need a quarterback
- 2:19:46because I had a running back that gave me 45456 points.
- 2:19:51He's been unbelievable this year.
- 2:19:54And, and I think it has a lot to do with Daniel Jones.
- 2:19:56And you say whatever you want, Daniel Jones opens up the field
- 2:19:59for this guy to find the seams and he's a competent
- 2:20:02quarterback. And, and now that they have a
- 2:20:04competent quarterback, I thinking you're I think you see
- 2:20:07the riches they have on the offensive side of the ball.
- 2:20:11You do see them, and it's time, Tommy, for us to whip around.
- 2:20:22Whip around. Dildo.
- 2:20:26And we're going to start right there, Errol, with these Daniels
- 2:20:30rubber leg Indianapolis Colts touch lower on the music.
- 2:20:38There we go. So Jones, 19 to 26255, a
- 2:20:42touchdown pick, 7 carries, 53 yards on the ground.
- 2:20:47It's just another solid game from him.
- 2:20:49The real story though, as you said, speedy 244, three
- 2:20:53touchdowns from Taylor, another 42 in the air.
- 2:20:58Tyler Warren, 8 catches, 99 yards.
- 2:21:01He's not a top three tight end I've never seen.
- 2:21:03I don't know anything about football.
- 2:21:04That guy's unbelievable. He's real great.
- 2:21:06Alec Pierce, who we learned this week apparently played against
- 2:21:12one Sauce gardener every day in practice for two years in
- 2:21:15Cincinnati, wanted to only go against the best.
- 2:21:19Now they are teammates. The Colts pull this one out in
- 2:21:22overtime and Sauce's first game over there.
- 2:21:25I'll tell you that Sauce did not look good.
- 2:21:28He did not look good all game. Now obviously it's his first
- 2:21:31game. He's learning a new scheme, but
- 2:21:33he didn't look good and and for two first round draft picks.
- 2:21:36I think The Jets are smiling right now.
- 2:21:38Now we'll see if they smile all the way to the the Price is
- 2:21:42right or whatever the hell you're going to, whatever
- 2:21:44they're going to win out of this.
- 2:21:45We got to see what these players are going to turn out to be, but
- 2:21:48I, I think The Jets are very happy with the move.
- 2:21:50I'll we'll see again. And hey, if if the Colts win a
- 2:21:53Super Bowl and sauce has any bit a part of it or any bit a part
- 2:21:57of it, he gets an interception or he runs in a pick 6IN in a
- 2:22:01Super Bowl. I think it's well worth it for
- 2:22:03the Colts. They've only won one Super Bowl
- 2:22:06in the last last 1520 years. I with Peyton Manning and, and
- 2:22:10honestly was lucky because they beat the Chicago Bears and Rex
- 2:22:13Grossman. If you remember, who the hell is
- 2:22:16Rex Grossman? But I think Daniel Jones, he
- 2:22:19didn't have to have one of those big days.
- 2:22:21He didn't need to because he's got Jonathan Taylor.
- 2:22:24Jonathan Taylor to me is going to be up for offensive play of
- 2:22:27the year. I think when you think about it,
- 2:22:29Bijan Robinson, everybody thought was going to be the best
- 2:22:32running back. All season long.
- 2:22:33He's been up and down in certain, especially against
- 2:22:36certain defenses. Jonathan Taylor has been up, up
- 2:22:40and away all season long. And it seems like, look, it's a
- 2:22:44bird, it's a plane, It's Jonathan Taylor.
- 2:22:48It seems like he's Superman and very well deserved and and right
- 2:22:52now the best running back right now in the league.
- 2:22:54If Saquon was healthy, I would say Saquon, but Jonathan Taylor
- 2:22:58is the best right now. Yeah.
- 2:22:59When the Falcons are the number one pass defense, the game plan
- 2:23:01was obviously going to be the run the ball and Daniel Jones
- 2:23:02still was good at extending plays and spreading the ball
- 2:23:04around. But Jonathan Taylor feed the
- 2:23:06beast. At that point I'm not as worried
- 2:23:07about sauce. I think it was a tough match up
- 2:23:08against Drake London. Drake London's another big
- 2:23:10bodied receiver that breaks the press very well.
- 2:23:12Give it time. If he still struggles for two or
- 2:23:14three more games, maybe you start to be concerned.
- 2:23:15But they the trade is still worth it for them.
- 2:23:17It needed wow speedy. You could say a lot, but your
- 2:23:21your head's up your ass half the time.
- 2:23:23Interesting, interesting. Man, he was, he was.
- 2:23:26He was talking fast. Yeah, no.
- 2:23:28I'm a little lost to what he said.
- 2:23:31Week 10, he's got John Taylor's got over 1000 yards.
- 2:23:34I mean, it's kind of self-explanatory.
- 2:23:36Hits him with the walk off TD, which is always dope when you
- 2:23:39see it. But yeah, no, it was, it was
- 2:23:42interesting. It's always, always interesting
- 2:23:44to see when guys, you know, jump ship and you know, got a lot to
- 2:23:47say and then, you know, don't go outperform in their first week.
- 2:23:50But you know, like you said. 1st. 2-3 weeks and then then you
- 2:23:53start to get concerned and see what happens.
- 2:23:55But they keep scoring with Jonathan Taylor.
- 2:23:58They're going to. They'll be all right to to give
- 2:24:01up. A couple.
- 2:24:02Scores here and there. I will say this worries me about
- 2:24:05Bijan Robinson because I don't think he's 100% healthy.
- 2:24:09This guy the last two weeks has not looked good and I don't know
- 2:24:12what it is because it's health. I just, I got both running
- 2:24:17backs. I got there, I got Bijan.
- 2:24:20I am worried. I'm worried.
- 2:24:21It's not health with Bijan, it's just the problem with taking
- 2:24:25Bijan number one overall was they have the best backup
- 2:24:29running back in all the football and Tyler Algier got them.
- 2:24:31They're going to give them carries, but I know, but you
- 2:24:33can't play them both at the same time.
- 2:24:35Why not? And get the rewards in one slot,
- 2:24:37right? Right.
- 2:24:38Algier got 2 touchdowns in this game and Robinson didn't.
- 2:24:41They both averaged 5 yards of carry.
- 2:24:43It's not like either one of them were bad.
- 2:24:45They were both good. It's just, and that's a good
- 2:24:47defense. They did that against in that
- 2:24:49Colts defense. So I wouldn't be worried about
- 2:24:52it. But that's what you deal with
- 2:24:54with Bichon Robinson. I I was not one of those guys
- 2:24:57who was like he's number one with.
- 2:24:58I didn't really think there was a number one guy this year.
- 2:25:00Turns out Jonathan Taylor. I'm not.
- 2:25:03I'm not going to hate on Bichon. Bichon Robinson is a top three
- 2:25:06running back right now in fantasy.
- 2:25:07He's a top five, top three, top three, not top three.
- 2:25:11Not by points. Top three points this year?
- 2:25:14Not by the results. By my result.
- 2:25:17However you want. By my results.
- 2:25:19That's in the whole league. By my results. 7.
- 2:25:22By my results, so it doesn't matter so.
- 2:25:25So you're just making up whatever you want to say.
- 2:25:26OK, we'll buy the next thing. That's all right.
- 2:25:29It's all right. Tommy's going to beat you.
- 2:25:30Tommy's Tommy's going to beat you this week, and I'll be back
- 2:25:33in first. As always, he's going.
- 2:25:35To win. I feel like Tommy's guy.
- 2:25:38Is this what I'm going to call? Tommy's going to have a 1.9
- 2:25:42point lead going into the last play of the game.
- 2:25:44He's going to throw it to Romeo Dobbs, he's going to fumble it
- 2:25:47and I'm going to win by .1 points.
- 2:25:49That's what's going to happen. What are you smoking tonight?
- 2:25:52That's my call, my shot. Here we go.
- 2:25:55You never know. Crazier things have happened.
- 2:25:57We're not going to talk about the Giants game because God
- 2:25:59forbid we do that twice tonight. But The Jets, as you said, they
- 2:26:04beat the Browns in this game, 27 to 20, no chador to be found.
- 2:26:09Dylan Gabriel, 17 of 32, two touchdowns, 16754 yards rushing.
- 2:26:15He's been kind of meh since he's taken over.
- 2:26:20You know, nothing special, Not bad by any stretch of the
- 2:26:23imagination, but he hasn't been doing enough to win games.
- 2:26:27Quinn, Shawn Judkins, he's not averaging a lot for carry, but
- 2:26:30they're certainly feeding him. Jerry Judy had a touchdown in
- 2:26:33this game. The story for The Jets was the
- 2:26:36special teams. 2 special teams touchdowns in this game.
- 2:26:40back-to-back. Breece Hall took a 42 yard
- 2:26:43screen pass to the house. Besides that, Justin Fields had
- 2:26:4712 yards passing in this game. Just can't make it up.
- 2:26:50Yeah, if they didn't ask him to do much, they didn't have to.
- 2:26:53Smart game script. Now This is why.
- 2:26:56This is the difference in my opinion between Day Ball and
- 2:26:59Aaron Glenn. Gable found ways to have
- 2:27:02everything in his favor and lose the game where Aaron Glenn had
- 2:27:06nothing going on offense to the point where his quarterback
- 2:27:08can't do nothing. Good for him, great job.
- 2:27:11I think Aaron Glenn is so underrated as as a head coach.
- 2:27:16I think Jeff fans are realizing they don't have a quarterback.
- 2:27:19They really don't have the the weapons defensively that's going
- 2:27:24to win games for them. They're getting points from
- 2:27:26their special teams. And I credit the coach because
- 2:27:29he puts him in the right position and he has the right
- 2:27:32guys as coaches on the sideline that he picked to to be his
- 2:27:36coaches. And I think that Aaron Glenn's
- 2:27:39finding ways to win and that's that's a sign of a good coach.
- 2:27:43They don't need superstar players to win games.
- 2:27:46As Dan Campbell came out and said, I'll go back and say it.
- 2:27:50Dan Campbell says a good coach is a coach that finds a way to
- 2:27:54win no matter who is playing. Well, I could say that about
- 2:27:59Aaron Glenn for all you Jet fans that have given up on him
- 2:28:01already and saying let's bring in Mike McCarthy, let's bring in
- 2:28:05this guy. He is a Jet.
- 2:28:07And when he gets a quarterback and finally The Jets could say
- 2:28:10they have a quarterback, then you're going to see what Aaron
- 2:28:13Glenn can do. He is a winner.
- 2:28:16He can win for this team and be a winner.
- 2:28:20Something that Jets have not seen since Bill Parcells.
- 2:28:23Oh, what a quinky dink. I wonder who that is.
- 2:28:27Well, why don't we ask Aaron Glenn?
- 2:28:28Because he was a part of that team when they were winning.
- 2:28:32So that's all I'm going to say. Yeah, I'm talking about The Jets
- 2:28:34like being in a lot of these games and that's what you want
- 2:28:36to see with a sign. Now, obviously them against the
- 2:28:39Browns, you know, I mean, it's kind of fluky the way they took
- 2:28:41the lead. Obviously 2 special team
- 2:28:42touchdowns often. Do you see that?
- 2:28:43But The Jets, they don't quit. They they played well enough
- 2:28:46with new players on that defense starting.
- 2:28:48And yes, the Browns offense is nothing yet.
- 2:28:50But I agree there, Aaron Glenn is definitely getting these
- 2:28:52players, these new players, these young players to believe
- 2:28:54in him. And that's a good sign.
- 2:28:56The Browns, they're a mess. All right, let's move on to the
- 2:29:00next slate of games here. It'll go to the Thursday game
- 2:29:03first, that ho hum 10/7 Broncos win over the Raiders.
- 2:29:08Really not much going on statistics wise.
- 2:29:10In that game, Bone Knicks got picked off twice, Gino got
- 2:29:14picked off once. Neither one of them got more
- 2:29:16than 150 yards. Ash and Gente had a rushing
- 2:29:20touchdown, but he's really not had a good rushing average all
- 2:29:23season long. They have not much going on in
- 2:29:26the offensive line. My fantasy team is going to lose
- 2:29:29because Brock Bowers had one catch in this game for 31 yards.
- 2:29:32Tyler Lockett, who they just picked up off the street, had
- 2:29:36five catches and 44 yards to lead the way for them.
- 2:29:40Troy Franklin with another touchdown for Denver.
- 2:29:43Not much going on in that game. The game that we need to talk
- 2:29:45about though is this Dolphins 30 to 13 beating like shellacking
- 2:29:52of the Bills. It wasn't even close at any
- 2:29:55point really. And they they turned it over
- 2:29:58Josh Allen fumble and and was picked off James Cook didn't do
- 2:30:02all that much himself and also fumble.
- 2:30:05You know, you can't really win the games when you're losing the
- 2:30:07turnover battle. Josh Allen's numbers came in
- 2:30:09garbage time 306 yards, 2 touchdowns with that pick in the
- 2:30:13fumble, 22 touchdowns and two picks 173.
- 2:30:16The game story of the game was Devon a Chain though, as you
- 2:30:19said, speedy, second leading rusher in the league. 174 yards,
- 2:30:232 touchdowns, another 51 on 6 receptions through the air.
- 2:30:29That's pretty much the story of those two games, boys.
- 2:30:32Well, the Broncos, I I'm, I'm not buying into the Broncos
- 2:30:36anymore. I'm not buying into them.
- 2:30:38I I think they're in a lot of trouble.
- 2:30:41I don't think they're a good team.
- 2:30:42I don't care. They have the they have probably
- 2:30:45they're the worst, best record in the NFL.
- 2:30:48All right, their record. What are they 8 and 2 now?
- 2:30:51They they have to be 1 of the worst team.
- 2:30:54They remind me of Justin Jefferson's Vikings a couple of
- 2:31:00years ago when they I think that I think they won 12 games or 11
- 2:31:04games and they won those games by like 3 or less.
- 2:31:07Three or more, 3:00 to 5:00. Giants beat them.
- 2:31:10In the playoffs, they were the most overrated team.
- 2:31:13This is a very overrated team. This is not a good team as far
- 2:31:16as I'm concerned. Offensively, they're a good
- 2:31:18defensive team, but if they're not going to put on points and
- 2:31:21they're not put up points and Bonex doesn't show up to games,
- 2:31:25they're not winning anything. They'll make the playoffs, but
- 2:31:27that's about it. And I don't want to hear we
- 2:31:29should get Sanderson on the show because I, I, I would, I would
- 2:31:32absolutely murder him right now. As far as the Buffalo Bills and
- 2:31:35Dolphins, it's pretty on. It's pretty obvious the Buffalo
- 2:31:39Bills missing some of their good defensive players.
- 2:31:42They're getting dominated out the line of scrimmage.
- 2:31:45They're letting teams run against them.
- 2:31:46They're one of the worst that stopped in the run this year and
- 2:31:49it's shown. And Josh Allen is being depended
- 2:31:53on to do everything offensively. And when that happens, there's a
- 2:31:56lot of pressure on Josh and teams are realizing that they're
- 2:32:00using Josh as a dual threat because he's so powerful.
- 2:32:04He's trying to run through lines and throw the ball down the
- 2:32:08field. It doesn't work.
- 2:32:09And when guys aren't getting open, this is what happens
- 2:32:12against a Dolphin team that's not any good defensively.
- 2:32:14After giving up and trading Phillips and trying to trade
- 2:32:17Waddle at the trade deadline, it just didn't work out because no
- 2:32:19teams were get willing to give him up to giving them a first
- 2:32:23and a second, which they were asking for.
- 2:32:25Yeah, well, Mcdaniel's offense has always done well since he
- 2:32:28took over as head coach against the Bills.
- 2:32:30They were just losing games because of defenses.
- 2:32:32And finally, their defense plays well and in surprising fashion
- 2:32:35too. They were able to contain James
- 2:32:36Cook for most of that game and Josh Allen, probably his worst
- 2:32:39game in a long time against a team like the Dolphins like
- 2:32:42that. The Broncos, I agree with you.
- 2:32:43This is the first game their offensive line got outmatched
- 2:32:45and you really saw that they got broken.
- 2:32:47I mean, it's easy for teams to get broke when your offensive
- 2:32:49line is bad, but the Broncos have been so good all year in
- 2:32:51the trenches. Yeah, they did not have a good
- 2:32:53counter game plan at all and almost lost that game for that
- 2:32:55reason. All right, let's move on to the
- 2:32:58next slate of games. All right, we got the Ravens
- 2:33:02with a 27 to 19 victory over the Vikings.
- 2:33:08Lamar Jackson, 176 yards on 17 and 29 and a touchdown.
- 2:33:13Nothing really special there, 36 yards running, Derrick Henry, 75
- 2:33:17yards running. No one really stood out.
- 2:33:20Mark Andrews had the touchdown there.
- 2:33:22So where do we have the the wins?
- 2:33:25Well, we had a a bunch of fumbles that that they didn't
- 2:33:28lose. The Baltimore fumbles, Minnesota
- 2:33:31got them. It was a ugly game for most of
- 2:33:35it. I got to go to the gamecast.
- 2:33:37I'm assuming there's a whole bunch of special teams and
- 2:33:39defensive shenanigans in this one.
- 2:33:41Looks like we got an Aaron Jones touchdown, a whole bunch of
- 2:33:45field goals. Justice Hill.
- 2:33:48Yeah, No, nothing really crazy until the fourth quarter.
- 2:33:52JJ McCarthy tried to make it close.
- 2:33:54It just was a boring game. The real exciting game, however,
- 2:33:58was Patriots Bucks 28 to 23. This one came down towards the
- 2:34:04end when Trayvion Henderson. Yes, my sleeper pick who's
- 2:34:09killed me most of the seasons, finally woken up. 14 carries,
- 2:34:13147 yards, 2 touchdowns, including the breakaway
- 2:34:16touchdown at the end of the game where he wasn't sure if he was
- 2:34:20supposed to score or not and actually had enough time because
- 2:34:22he's so fast that he was able to look back to the sidelines and
- 2:34:27get the instructions. Yeah, you can go ahead.
- 2:34:29You can score the touchdown. Drake May.
- 2:34:31Another good game. Not nearly as efficient as
- 2:34:34normal. He's almost just over 50%.
- 2:34:36The 16 to 31272 touchdowns and a pick in this game, including a
- 2:34:42bomb to Kyle rookie Kyle Williams for 72 yard touchdown
- 2:34:46to kind of kick off the game. Emeko Buka another great game on
- 2:34:49the side for Tampa. 115 yards and a touchdown.
- 2:34:51Tight end K Aden 9 catches, 82 yards and Mayfield just
- 2:34:55continues to impress in the losing effort. 273 three
- 2:34:59touchdowns for Baker. Again, story of the game.
- 2:35:03You know the rushing attacks. Not really there for Tampa right
- 2:35:06now. The Ravens are going to figure
- 2:35:10things out. They're going to sneak into the
- 2:35:11playoffs. And if they sneak into the
- 2:35:13playoffs, I don't care how bad their defense has been this
- 2:35:15year. They've got playmakers there and
- 2:35:17they got the playmaker and Lamar Jackson.
- 2:35:20Lamar has never gotten this team over the hump, even when they
- 2:35:23were one of the best teams in the league and they were the
- 2:35:26number one seed or #2 seed in the AFC.
- 2:35:29I think if they sneak into the playoffs, they could be as
- 2:35:32dangerous as they ever have been because nobody expects them to
- 2:35:35go to the Super Bowl this year and that's when they're usually
- 2:35:38and that's when teams are usually the most dangerous.
- 2:35:41I'd watch out for Lamar Jackson in this.
- 2:35:43This team, They have gone on a tear since he's come back.
- 2:35:47I don't even think they've lost the game since he's been back.
- 2:35:49So it it tells me that Lamar Jackson is the heart and soul of
- 2:35:53this team and the Vikings are still a good team.
- 2:35:56They're a team that should make the playoffs and have an
- 2:35:58opportunity to make the playoffs.
- 2:36:00And the way Lamar Jackson manhandled them in the
- 2:36:03second-half of the game says a lot about who he is as a player.
- 2:36:06As far as the Patriots are concerned, let's be honest, I I
- 2:36:10know we all had Baker Mayfield. They don't have any running game
- 2:36:14and when you're 1 dimensional, you saw what the Patriots did to
- 2:36:18them. They couldn't run the ball.
- 2:36:20They were they were pressuring Baker to make throws,
- 2:36:23uncontested throws in certain situations that obviously
- 2:36:27through Baker Mayfield's in situations that he was
- 2:36:30uncomfortable in. I expect this Patriot team when
- 2:36:34they start to play good teams, which I don't even know.
- 2:36:37I've looked at their their schedule.
- 2:36:39I think the hardest game they have left is the Buffalo Bills.
- 2:36:43Their schedule is how easy the Patriots schedule is this year.
- 2:36:47I don't even have it in front of me.
- 2:36:49But if you read it off right now, what they have left, I
- 2:36:52looked at it last night when I was at Miller's Ale House.
- 2:36:54It's bad. It is really.
- 2:36:56They have The Jets twice. They should win both games.
- 2:36:59OK. They got Buffalo once.
- 2:37:01I think they have Miami again. I does anybody have the schedule
- 2:37:05up? I think they took off the
- 2:37:06Browns, too. Hold on.
- 2:37:07I'll pull it up right now. I mean, yeah, Drake May has.
- 2:37:11And you know, it's, it's so funny because Mikey C, he'd be a
- 2:37:13top five quarterback. In three years, he's going to
- 2:37:16be. Right about this, because of the
- 2:37:18scheduling, it is perfect. Take a look.
- 2:37:20They've lost. They lost to Vegas to kick off
- 2:37:22the season, they beat Miami and they lost to Pittsburgh.
- 2:37:25Those are their two losses. Not, not really.
- 2:37:28Great teams. Then they beat Carolina,
- 2:37:30Buffalo, the Saints, Tennessee, Cleveland, a flawed Atlanta
- 2:37:35team. Do you know, do you just so just
- 2:37:38so extra point and Tampa, so you said roster, so you said they're
- 2:37:42wins. So you said the Saints, they're
- 2:37:44a top five worst team in the league right now, in the top
- 2:37:46five to get a draft pick, so. The Browns in Cleveland, the
- 2:37:49Browns, Tennessee, those are three of the worst teams in the
- 2:37:52NFL and The Jets, they're going to have coming up.
- 2:37:55Who's the top five team that? They have to play.
- 2:37:57Twice which they should run all over them.
- 2:38:00So here's who they have left. They got The Jets twice, the
- 2:38:03Giants, who are so Cincinnati maybe before, maybe they lose
- 2:38:08because Joe. Burrow will be back.
- 2:38:10Joe Burrow won't be back till Thanksgiving game so that's the
- 2:38:12week before. So no Joe Burrow in their
- 2:38:14matchup against. Them, then Buffalo.
- 2:38:17Baltimore and Miami one more time.
- 2:38:20They'll have problems with Buffalo and Baltimore.
- 2:38:23That's about it. That's that's, that's a four
- 2:38:24loss season though, you know that's, that's a 13 and 4.
- 2:38:28Season. That they could easily get here.
- 2:38:30Pretty impressive. It's not impressive.
- 2:38:32It's against bad teams. That's it.
- 2:38:35There's nothing. It's against bad.
- 2:38:37Still good dude. I don't, I don't know.
- 2:38:41The schedule is so simple it falls right into their.
- 2:38:45Spot their. G spot.
- 2:38:46It makes me sick to my stomach Yeah, one thing that I think you
- 2:38:50do have to give some credit for another tow job is the patriots
- 2:38:54in the trenches too. Obviously we talked about them
- 2:38:56not trading for an offensive lineman or trading for.
- 2:38:59Help on defense at all they. Traded 2 of their defensive guys
- 2:39:01away and Tampa is always a team that you talk about all the
- 2:39:03time. Meryl Toddles loves to blitz,
- 2:39:05they bring pressure a lot, but they held their own in this game
- 2:39:07too. A game Tampa had no running
- 2:39:10game. What are you talking about?
- 2:39:12Stop with your analytics. Your analytics suck.
- 2:39:15OK, you're wrong. They had no running.
- 2:39:17Game and that's why they lost. They lost 28 to 23 because they
- 2:39:23had no running game. That's why they lost period.
- 2:39:28Enough with your statistics, Ravens.
- 2:39:29If they can get a league average defense with the offensive
- 2:39:32capabilities that they've had, they definitely could turn it
- 2:39:34around. And still, you know what?
- 2:39:35You know what's so funny about him?
- 2:39:36If he could do this, you know what the way he produces the
- 2:39:39show. I mean he'd be an All Star, but
- 2:39:42he can't do that. Sorry.
- 2:39:43He knows statistics and he knows how to analytics, but he he
- 2:39:46don't know how to control a freaking production end of it.
- 2:39:49Thank you, speedy. Thank you very much for your
- 2:39:51take. Next.
- 2:39:54All right, let's get into those Saints.
- 2:39:56And it ain't Spencer Rattler there.
- 2:39:58So they're winning now, Tyler. Shuck had his by.
- 2:40:01Far his best performance as a rookie in the NFL. 19 of 27282.
- 2:40:08Two touchdowns, 100 yards to Chris Olave and a touchdown.
- 2:40:12Almost 100 for Juwan Johnson, The tight end with the other
- 2:40:15touchdown Carolina outside of Rico Dowdle who continues to be
- 2:40:20good this year with another touchdown just did not show up
- 2:40:23at all. Cares about just an
- 2:40:25embarrassment for Carolina team that should have put themselves
- 2:40:30in in a six and four spot looking.
- 2:40:32For a playoff spot if they. Were real against the Satans
- 2:40:35team that should be easy to beat and now they're back to 500.
- 2:40:38They are effing pretenders if I've ever seen it and this was a
- 2:40:42really fun game if you watched it.
- 2:40:44You have to see the end on kind of like a walk off lineman pick
- 2:40:486 to end this game for the Texans.
- 2:40:51They never kicked the extra point.
- 2:40:52They were already winning by 1. It was a really good game back
- 2:40:56and forth. Trevor Lawrence wasn't great.
- 2:40:58Again, kind of a running theme all year here. 158 a touchdown
- 2:41:03and a pick, 35 yards on the ground.
- 2:41:05Etienne was okay, 58 yards and a touchdown.
- 2:41:09Had a nice touchdown catch to Parker Washington but Davis
- 2:41:12Mills yes Davis Mills filling in for CJ Stroud made this Texans
- 2:41:18offense can we move on are we really talking about the top you
- 2:41:22should because the Texans are a legitimate team they're not
- 2:41:25legitimates I'm. Telling you they're a legitimate
- 2:41:28team. They have a winning home record.
- 2:41:30And they're they're going to get into the second.
- 2:41:32Half of the season and I. Guarantee you this team is going
- 2:41:35to make some noise. Was the leading fantasy player
- 2:41:40in all. It was the leading fantasy
- 2:41:41quarterback in all of fantasy yesterday.
- 2:41:43This is not a good team. This is not a good offense.
- 2:41:46The Texans got lucky because the Jaguars suck.
- 2:41:49The Panthers are a joke. They.
- 2:41:51Should have beaten that team that what we call the Saints.
- 2:41:54I don't even call them the Saints.
- 2:41:55I call them the Devils, the Demons, because they can't do
- 2:41:58anything. So enough said.
- 2:42:00I, I don't, let's move on. These games are just pathetic,
- 2:42:04Pathetic, Speedy. Yeah, I'm with Errol.
- 2:42:10Texans are not great yet. I'm not gonna judge anything.
- 2:42:12Until a consistency 1 fluke performance from Davis.
- 2:42:15Mills is gonna sell. Anything in the Panthers, they
- 2:42:17looked like they were finally contending.
- 2:42:18But they're done. Look Nico Collins 7 for 1:36,
- 2:42:24they get him going, so it might be a different.
- 2:42:26Story over there. Everyone was picking him at like
- 2:42:28a top. 3 receiver this year going into all the drafts,
- 2:42:30right? So top five guy, 100% he hasn't
- 2:42:33been that. If he can get going, you never
- 2:42:36know. Here we go big high scoring
- 2:42:39games, all in the NFC West. Facing off in this one, the
- 2:42:45Seahawks 44, Cardinals 22. That one was explosive, but it
- 2:42:51happened early. It was all in the first quarter.
- 2:42:54We had two defensive touchdowns done almost identically in the
- 2:43:00same ways by DeMarcus Lawrence. He has former Cowboy legend
- 2:43:04DeMarcus Lawrence. Sam Darnold didn't do all that
- 2:43:08much, didn't have to. They just pounded the clock and
- 2:43:11ran that play, that game out. Jacoby good in his effort over
- 2:43:16there. The Rams 42, the 49ers 26 is
- 2:43:22another one where the Rams were in control basically the
- 2:43:25entirety of this game. Let me give you some stats real
- 2:43:29quick. Mac Jones and losing effort 319,
- 2:43:32three touchdowns, only 6 incomplete passes.
- 2:43:34But again, it didn't matter. Karen Williams ran all over them
- 2:43:37for two touchdowns. Puka Nakua touchdown.
- 2:43:40Devante Adams a touchdown. When you get 2 guys that are #1
- 2:43:43receivers going like that with Matthew Stafford, it's going to
- 2:43:46be tough to beat them. Merrill with that good defense,
- 2:43:48too. The Cardinals Sock.
- 2:43:53The Seattle Seahawks are probably going to win the
- 2:43:55division unless the Rams. Are going to fight them.
- 2:43:58All the way and the 49ers are a chump Trump organization that
- 2:44:02honestly, even when Purdy comes back, I don't think they're any
- 2:44:05good. They don't have a defense.
- 2:44:06Their defense isn't good anymore because they don't have their
- 2:44:09two best players on their defense.
- 2:44:10So I Seattle's playing good football.
- 2:44:13Sam Donald didn't have one of his best games.
- 2:44:15So I I don't know what Seattle is until they get into their
- 2:44:20hard part of their schedule at the end of the season.
- 2:44:23I think they have like they have they have two really bad big
- 2:44:26games coming up. I think they play the Rams.
- 2:44:28They're they're they need to beat the better teams and they
- 2:44:31need to play beat the good teams if they want to be be considered
- 2:44:34one of the teams in the NFC that are going to challenge the
- 2:44:37Eagles or some of these good teams in the North.
- 2:44:41As far as the 49ers are concerned, they suck.
- 2:44:44They suck, they suck. I don't know what more to say.
- 2:44:47The Rams are a better team than they are.
- 2:44:50They're younger and I just think they're Matthew Stafford is
- 2:44:54playing, you know, I honestly, I think he's the MVP of the league
- 2:44:58right now. I wouldn't give it to, I'm not
- 2:45:00going to give it to a guy that has had an easy schedule.
- 2:45:03I'm going. To give it to a guy that.
- 2:45:04Schedule is not easy and he's doing it against good teams, and
- 2:45:09the 49ers are much better than the crop that Drake made.
- 2:45:13Just played. OK, so I'm going to go with the
- 2:45:17Rams and what the Rams have done so far this year.
- 2:45:19The Rams are the, I would say the second best team right now
- 2:45:22in the NFC, if you would ask me. Yeah, it was only a matter of
- 2:45:24time for the Rams offense to wake up because their offense
- 2:45:26started slow, but they were still winning games.
- 2:45:28That defense was great. I agree with you on the 49ers.
- 2:45:30They've been fluky. They won, but they had a bad
- 2:45:32role, a point differential and they can only overcome so many
- 2:45:34injuries of Christian McCaffrey. Seattle, I agree with you.
- 2:45:37They probably need to face better teams.
- 2:45:38Is you is, are you coming back soon?
- 2:45:41Apparently in like 2 weeks or so, but it's still not to be
- 2:45:44determined. But the way it's not going to
- 2:45:45make a difference. Yeah, I don't think it will the
- 2:45:47window yet. So yeah, the 49ers are not
- 2:45:50making the playoffs as good as their defense has been.
- 2:45:52Seattle good. Kyle Shanahan out.
- 2:45:55Out. Two years in a row and you're
- 2:45:58going to keep this guy? As your head.
- 2:46:00Coach, it just shows you how stupid the 49ers organization
- 2:46:03is. If this guy keeps his job once
- 2:46:06again after the season when they miss the playoffs back-to-back
- 2:46:10years, there's something wrong over there in San Francisco.
- 2:46:13That's all I'm going to say. I'm going to say the same thing
- 2:46:15with Seattle too. I think Seattle last year looked
- 2:46:17good, but then they got swept by the Rams at the end of the year.
- 2:46:19So that's going to be the key for them to win the division.
- 2:46:20But there will be a while. Injuries always happen in
- 2:46:23football. If you're a great head coach,
- 2:46:26you win the games and he's not winning them.
- 2:46:29So in my honest opinion, if Kyle Shanahan keeps his job this year
- 2:46:34after not making the playoffs back-to-back years, the 49ers
- 2:46:37owner should sell the team. That's all I'm going to say.
- 2:46:40He doesn't deserve to keep his job.
- 2:46:42He doesn't. I mean, they have a winning
- 2:46:44record. Doesn't matter.
- 2:46:46Doesn't matter. You're not going to sell
- 2:46:47anything to me. They're not making the playoffs.
- 2:46:50You don't think it's like he has to?
- 2:46:51Be fired he should. He should back-to-back years no
- 2:46:55playoffs with your talent and and as great of a coach you are
- 2:46:58they. Lost.
- 2:46:59They lost all their defensive. Line that's no excuse you're
- 2:47:02he's a great coach it's not they still have a winning record it
- 2:47:05doesn't matter he's. He should be fine.
- 2:47:07I don't know. Maybe here we go with the next.
- 2:47:11One the lions. Now this one's interesting.
- 2:47:13Dan, how many games do we have to play?
- 2:47:15Is the last one all right? Dan Campbell.
- 2:47:17Took over the play calling for the first time in this.
- 2:47:21One and they put. Up 44 points on the Commanders
- 2:47:25not going their way this year for the Washington Commanders.
- 2:47:28Give you a couple of stats from this one.
- 2:47:30Jameer Gibbs 15 carries, 142 yards, 2 touchdowns.
- 2:47:34David Montgomery also 15 carries, 71 yards.
- 2:47:38Jameson Williams 6 for 1/19 and a touchdown.
- 2:47:41St. Brown had a touchdown.
- 2:47:43Gibbs had a receiving touchdown as well.
- 2:47:46Just awesome, awesome offense. Not there's no slowing that
- 2:47:50juggernaut down. Apparently everyone keeps
- 2:47:52forgetting about the Detroit Lions arrow.
- 2:47:55And then the Steelers, as expected, put up a dud against
- 2:47:59the Chargers 25 to 10. Aaron Rodgers was awful in this
- 2:48:03game. 16 of 31161, a touchdown and two picks.
- 2:48:08Fumble once got it back. Not much going on for them.
- 2:48:11Roman Wilson at a touchdown. People are going to start paying
- 2:48:14attention to him. Ladd Mcconkey went for 100 and a
- 2:48:16touchdown in this game. Kamani Vidal almost ran for 100
- 2:48:19and had a touchdown to Herbert. A nice, efficient game.
- 2:48:23Didn't have to do much in that one.
- 2:48:26Lions going to be chasing. They're going to have to chase
- 2:48:29because Chicago, Green Bay, there's so many good teams in
- 2:48:33this division. The Vikings are going to be the
- 2:48:35odd man out. Unfortunately, it's just the
- 2:48:38Vikings with a young quarterback they passed on Sam Donald.
- 2:48:42Maybe they shouldn't have, but the NFC is too good and the NFC
- 2:48:47is weak in the NFC is just too good.
- 2:48:49There's so many good teams. I think obviously they're going
- 2:48:53to fall short. I, I, I've been very, very
- 2:48:55impressed with that. The Lions, the Lions are, are
- 2:48:58just so explosive offensively. And when these two running backs
- 2:49:01could dominate the line of scrimmage, like Montgomery and
- 2:49:04Gibbs, watch out. I mean, Gibbs is a beast.
- 2:49:06I, I mean, I don't think anybody understands how when this guy
- 2:49:10finds a seam, how really unstoppable this guy is.
- 2:49:13Untouchable as I would call him. I, you ever see the movie
- 2:49:16Untouchables with Kevin Costner? Well, he's as untouchable as
- 2:49:20that movie. So I'm going to I, I think the
- 2:49:23Lions are just going to get better and better as the season
- 2:49:25moves forward as far as the Steel is concerned.
- 2:49:28To me, they're they should be shame of themselves showing up
- 2:49:32on Sunday Night Football and playing up a lousy goose egg
- 2:49:34against a team that has no, no offensive line with all the
- 2:49:40injuries they've had. And they couldn't really, really
- 2:49:43get to Justin, Justin Herbert. And, and honestly, this game was
- 2:49:46like really boring until the second-half.
- 2:49:48And then Justin Herbert took over the game and showed you why
- 2:49:50I think Justin Herbert should be considered one of the elite
- 2:49:54quarterbacks in the NFL. And, and you can see why Jim
- 2:49:57Harbaugh decided to take the scene.
- 2:49:59So I I think the Chargers to me are not a good team because of
- 2:50:04their their their offensive line woes.
- 2:50:07But it's pretty impressive what they did on Sunday night.
- 2:50:10It's pretty impressible what impressive what they're doing
- 2:50:13right now with with all the injuries they have on that
- 2:50:15offensive line and that's Jim Harbaugh.
- 2:50:16That's all Jim Harbaugh and his system, his game planning to
- 2:50:19make work. They countered a good pass,
- 2:50:20Ross. They did a great job against the
- 2:50:21Colts, which Errol you said is the best offensive line of it is
- 2:50:24last week. And they countered that kind of
- 2:50:26game plan very well. Fish, you mentioned the doll
- 2:50:27playing very well. They had the extra blockers in
- 2:50:29there sometimes to make it work, and the charters defense really
- 2:50:31just did the rest of that with that.
- 2:50:33Harbaugh deserves a lot of credit.
- 2:50:34Lions. Yeah, Errol's right.
- 2:50:35I still think they're a little behind the curve when it comes
- 2:50:37to NFC contenders, but they can run the ball and like what they
- 2:50:40did last week. There you go.
- 2:50:43There's our whip around for the week.
- 2:50:45It's long and agonizing. And Jabba was probably eating
- 2:50:48his popcorn and wearing his beans.
- 2:50:50No, I was. I was being a dad.
- 2:50:53Oh, you're being a dad, all right.
- 2:50:55Yeah. Hanging out with Carter.
- 2:50:56You don't expect those phone calls on a Monday.
- 2:50:58Night at 9:43, so my heart kind. Of give the population but.
- 2:51:05It was an adverted. He needed a password.
- 2:51:06Sorry. I'm glad that's what it was and.
- 2:51:11Not because when when you get. One of those at a random time.
- 2:51:14That's not it's usually. Not good this.
- 2:51:16Makes my pecker hard as all. It didn't do that.
- 2:51:20It kind of went in its shell and started hiding until I figured
- 2:51:24out. All right, so you got.
- 2:51:26AI had to take. A shit, as we all know.
- 2:51:29No, not yet. You just made my nipples hard.
- 2:51:33All right, I think. Should we go?
- 2:51:36Let's. Skip this.
- 2:51:37Yes, let's go to Sports Minute. Let's skip.
- 2:51:40The sports minute. We got a.
- 2:51:41Lot to get into and we have very, we don't have that much.
- 2:51:45Time, so let's skip the sports. Minute and let's go jump to
- 2:51:49Jabba Rules, Rules, rules. Yeah, we.
- 2:51:56Well, first of all this. Segment's brought to you.

- 2:52:38it's come, you know, here in the last.
- 2:52:41Probably, you know, few years. Blah, blah, blah.
- 2:52:44But the posting of the Japanese players and I just think it's
- 2:52:50really, really cool. Because.
- 2:52:53They acknowledge and they honor their right to play in Japan and
- 2:52:58they have to play for at least six years and then be posted.
- 2:53:02And it's just, it's awesome to see.
- 2:53:04The talent that. Has come out of there and
- 2:53:06there's obviously been someones that have failed, but I just
- 2:53:09think it's, it's awesome to see how we have obviously the
- 2:53:12international draft and then we have this draft and be able to
- 2:53:17to see these posting fees and these guys.
- 2:53:19Get what? They deserve and.
- 2:53:20You know, I just think. It's it's growing a sport you
- 2:53:23know in. So many.
- 2:53:23Ways and we've seen that so I I just love how it's a little bit
- 2:53:26different and it keeps things exciting with you know the two
- 2:53:29big names that are coming out obviously as as one hitter and
- 2:53:32one pitcher coming out this year.
- 2:53:34Amir Komen, my guy. Tatsuyaima.
- 2:53:37See he's got him as a sangha comparison with a little better
- 2:53:42numbers. Fastball is a tick higher.
- 2:53:44So we'll see how that plays, but I just think it's really cool
- 2:53:47and, and how everything can, you know, playoff off of this
- 2:53:51Japanese international draft that I that I think it just
- 2:53:54grows this game substantially. And I and I love seeing it
- 2:53:57because it brings new energy to the GM meetings.
- 2:53:59Now, now guys getting posted. Then we have winter meetings and
- 2:54:02it just keeps, you know, the offseason moving.
- 2:54:04So I love everything about it. All right, that's Jabba rules,
- 2:54:08ladies and gentlemen. And I, I think it's an
- 2:54:11interesting, interesting night and I.
- 2:54:14I will. Say this, I've been watching
- 2:54:15this Eagles game and it's one of the most boring games I've ever
- 2:54:20watched when it comes to Eagles games.
- 2:54:22I you would have thought that this game was going to be fun to
- 2:54:24watch, but this could be the NFC title game.
- 2:54:28And if it's this boring, it's not going to be one of the fun
- 2:54:31ones. But as it gets colder, depending
- 2:54:34on where it's going to be held, it could be held in Green Bay,
- 2:54:36could be held in Philadelphia. I think the game will be even
- 2:54:40more interesting if there's snow on the ground, maybe cold rain.
- 2:54:44So you have two power run games and Saquon Barkley and Jacobs
- 2:54:49and you have two quality quarterbacks.
- 2:54:51I think Jalen Hurts it to me is is is the champion.
- 2:54:56He's the MVP of last year's Super Bowl.
- 2:54:58I want to see if Jordan Love can show up in the big parts of
- 2:55:01these games and and win the ball game and they have a chance to
- 2:55:04put it in the end zone. We'll see.
- 2:55:05If they could do that and make this game even closer, then it's
- 2:55:10unbelievable. The Eagles have shut out Jordan
- 2:55:13Love and the Green Bay. It looks like they're going to
- 2:55:15put it in right now. Jacobs put it right in there.
- 2:55:17So first touchdown of the game, first points of the game for the
- 2:55:21Green Bay Packers. Former NFL commissioner Paul
- 2:55:28Taglibou passed away on Sunday from congestive heart failure.
- 2:55:32He was 84 years old. Taglibou.
- 2:55:34Taglibou was NFL. He was the NFL commissioner from
- 2:55:381989 to 2006 and before that served as the NFL lawyer of the
- 2:55:4419 of 1969 until becoming commissioner.
- 2:55:47Taglibou was replaced as the commissioner by his heir and
- 2:55:52apparent. His heir apparent and long time
- 2:55:55time #2 current commissioner Rodger Goodell in 2006.
- 2:55:59Tagalabou is responsible for adding four new NFL teams, the
- 2:56:03Texans, the Panthers, the Jaguars, the Ravens was able to
- 2:56:07keep the Seattle, the Seahawks in Seattle after relocating
- 2:56:12rumors and is credited for having kept the Saints in New
- 2:56:17Orleans after the destruction from Hurricane Katrina.
- 2:56:22He also was vital in the relocation of other teams like
- 2:56:27the Raiders going to Oakland and the Houston Oilers moving to
- 2:56:32Nashville to become the Tennessee Titans and the Rams
- 2:56:37going to LA to Saint Louis and now in LA thanks to Goodell the
- 2:56:43idiot. He also was involved in setting
- 2:56:46up NFL Europe in 1991, which helped open the door for all the
- 2:56:53international games the NFL has had every year since then.
- 2:56:58He also took several national stands, including removing a
- 2:57:03Super Bowl from Arizona in 1993 when they refused to honor MLK
- 2:57:09and completely canceling NFL games after 9 11.
- 2:57:15Tagliab Tagliabu was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of
- 2:57:20Fame as part of the Centennial class back in 2020.
- 2:57:27So I wrote a story and I I wanted to get into this and, and
- 2:57:31the story is called Paul Tagliabu final challenge flag
- 2:57:36and it's on Rodger Goodell. You could check it out.
- 2:57:40And I went into, I kind of, and I, I know a lot of people, I, I,
- 2:57:44I know a lot of people think I hate Rodger Goodell.
- 2:57:46I don't like him. I'm not saying that Rodger
- 2:57:49Goodell isn't a good commissioner.
- 2:57:51He doesn't know how to make money.
- 2:57:52He does. But Tagliabue painted the way
- 2:57:57for the NF LS growth. He really did when you think
- 2:58:01about all the things that he did and he was the one when all that
- 2:58:06stuff was going on with Jerry Jones and, and all these owners
- 2:58:09were practically trying to kick Jerry out.
- 2:58:11He was the one in favor of possibly moving towards these
- 2:58:17teams earning their own profitable sponsorships through
- 2:58:22their own style of, you know, investments.
- 2:58:25And I think Tagliabue changed the game.
- 2:58:28He opened the wave of the NFL bringing in more sponsors and
- 2:58:33more advertisers to make this corporation the biggest in
- 2:58:37sports in America. When Tagliabue took over in the
- 2:58:42NFL in 1989, the NFL was up and down.
- 2:58:46It just came back from strike. There was just so much stuff
- 2:58:49going on in the NFL and when Tagliabue took over, there was a
- 2:58:54lot of questions where the NFL was going.
- 2:58:56And then you saw the the Cowboys dominate the way they did and it
- 2:59:01was a tail end of the San Francisco 49ers superior
- 2:59:04dominance in the 80s and the early 90s.
- 2:59:08It was it was Tagliabue that was trying to figure out where the
- 2:59:12NFL was going to move. Baseball was going on strike,
- 2:59:14strike at the way it did in 959495 and and baseball was the
- 2:59:20biggest sport in the 80s and and the 70's, the 80s and the early
- 2:59:2590s. Baseball was bigger than
- 2:59:27football. It was bigger.
- 2:59:29It was more watched on television.
- 2:59:31It it it they sold out more games going to baseball games
- 2:59:35than they did in the NFL. When Tagliabue took over, he
- 2:59:39changed that. He opened up the floodgates of
- 2:59:42the path of bringing in more money and more opportunities for
- 2:59:46the league to develop opportunities to bring in new
- 2:59:50teams and create opportunities to bring in paths of money that
- 2:59:54the NFL couldn't do in the 70s and the early 80s.
- 3:00:00And a lot of people thought the NFL was going to fall apart
- 3:00:03after the strike. They thought that the NFL was
- 3:00:05done, that there was, it was really a rich man's league.
- 3:00:08That's what they called it. And it's so funny when Jerry
- 3:00:11Jones brought it, brought it up on the Cowboys documentary on
- 3:00:15Netflix, he said the only people that own sports teams and the
- 3:00:18only people that own football teams were there.
- 3:00:21It was like a Country Club that that there was no money to be
- 3:00:25made in the NFL at the time when Jerry Jones took over.
- 3:00:29I thought that when Tagliabue took over and Jerry Jones became
- 3:00:34an owner, it changed the pave on the wave of the NFL.
- 3:00:40And everybody hates guys like Jerry Jones because they think
- 3:00:43he's ruined the game. But he's opened up waves of
- 3:00:46money and opportunity for the NFL to bring in so many
- 3:00:51different ways to bring in money.
- 3:00:53And I think Tagliabue allowed a guy like Jerry Jones to do that.
- 3:00:58And, and I, I think there's a lot to be said about Paul
- 3:01:01Taglibo, that Roger Goodell, yes, he was in the second
- 3:01:05command. He was behind Taglibu and
- 3:01:08Taglibo praised him. But if you think about it, what
- 3:01:12Rodger Goodell did was practically mimic what Taglio
- 3:01:16Boo did and just jumped on his ideas.
- 3:01:19That's all he did. It wasn't like, oh, Goodell is a
- 3:01:23genius. He did that.
- 3:01:25What Taglio Boo did was he didn't make enough money as the
- 3:01:28commissioner, as we see Rodger Goodell just making a pave of
- 3:01:31money. Think about it.
- 3:01:33Rodger Goodell was is averaging 55 to $60 million a year.
- 3:01:38Taglio Boo was thinking less than 5 million a year.
- 3:01:42Think about that that way. It it it bothers me because when
- 3:01:47you when you think of Goodell and I know a lot of people like
- 3:01:49Rodger Goodell and and it's fine.
- 3:01:51He has helped the game and bringing in advertisement of
- 3:01:54money. I think Speedy could have done
- 3:01:56it. I think I could have done it.
- 3:01:57I think Fish could have done it. I think you could have done a
- 3:01:59Jabba. I don't think it's rocket
- 3:02:01science what the NFL has done. I just think it's changing.
- 3:02:07What Tagliabue did was bring an expansion and and teams to the
- 3:02:11league. Think about it.
- 3:02:12When when he brought the Panthers into the league, how
- 3:02:15long did it take them to get to a Super Bowl?
- 3:02:179 years. Nine years.
- 3:02:19When When he brought the Jaguars in, how long did it take him to
- 3:02:23get to an AFC title game? Two years.
- 3:02:25When the Ravens, When he brought the Ravens in, how long did it
- 3:02:28take them to win a Super Bowl? Five years that, my friends.
- 3:02:32Says A. Lot about Paul Tagliabo.
- 3:02:36Now let's look at the expansion. Teams that.
- 3:02:39Roger Goodell has brought in. Think about it, Speedy.
- 3:02:42Could you name them? Well, the relocation teams are
- 3:02:45the ones that Roger Goodell brought in.
- 3:02:46Bring them up. The Texans were the last ones.
- 3:02:48So that technically is still Tagliabue, too.
- 3:02:50No, I mean, they haven't had the playoff success.
- 3:02:52So you've relocated the Raiders. This is the problem.
- 3:02:54I have. So you relocated the Raiders and
- 3:02:56the Rams again? Yeah.
- 3:02:57The Rams won a Super Bowl. Fine, the readers, because they
- 3:03:00pretty much bought their way into the Super Bowl.
- 3:03:03And and yeah, and you'll look at the angle of, oh, the NFL is
- 3:03:05trying to pump up this LA thing too.
- 3:03:07And I actually, I wrote a paper back in college on it where we
- 3:03:10knew the the whole fan thing was going to become, you see Rams
- 3:03:13and Chargers games all the time, like how many Rd. fans are in
- 3:03:16that stadium? And yes, the Rams are a well run
- 3:03:18team. The Chargers are pretty well run
- 3:03:20team for the most part, can be cheap sometimes.
- 3:03:22But like, they're not the they're not the issue with that
- 3:03:25as much as it is the fact that Roger Goodell wants to make this
- 3:03:27LA thing work for exactly what you're saying, Errol read.
- 3:03:29In his own way, he wants money for the league because it's more
- 3:03:33money. For him that he'll.
- 3:03:34Stash for his 55,000,000 and all his insurance for his kids and
- 3:03:37all that crap. And meanwhile you got this guy
- 3:03:40like Tagli Abou, like you said, resurrecting what Pete Roselle
- 3:03:43did. Pete Roselle had a lot of issues
- 3:03:45towards the end of his time as commissioner in the 80s.
- 3:03:47You mentioned the strike. There was literally a 1982
- 3:03:49season where a kicker 1 MVP because they went on strike and
- 3:03:53Tagli Abou helped resurrect. That started the salary cap
- 3:03:56error. And like you said, all these
- 3:03:57expansion teams keeping those two, the Saints and the Seahawks
- 3:03:59too. And, and here's another thing
- 3:04:01with all the crazy stuff that's happened in the NFL, the Ray
- 3:04:05Rice, the domestic violence, everything that's gone on, it's
- 3:04:09happened under Goodell, not Tagliabo.
- 3:04:13Think about it that way. All this crazy crap that's
- 3:04:17happened and now everybody's trying to find ways to make
- 3:04:19excuses in the NFL is trying to way to just brush it on the rug.
- 3:04:24I'm not saying the CT situation that wasn't under Tagliabue,
- 3:04:28that was under Goodell. So Goodell has just been a
- 3:04:32disgrace in my eyes with the NFL now, yes, he's grown the sport.
- 3:04:37I think a baby could have grown the sport because the sport,
- 3:04:40everybody loves contact sports. Everybody loves the the the
- 3:04:44aggressiveness of the game. So there's no doubt about it,
- 3:04:48but what bothers me about the NFL and what bothers me about
- 3:04:52what the NFL has transitioned into, it's become all about
- 3:04:56money. It's not become a really about
- 3:04:59the game and the the athletic gifts that these guys have and
- 3:05:03some of them have just tremendous athletic gifts.
- 3:05:06Offensive lineman are running 40s in in less than four, 4.8
- 3:05:11seconds. I mean, it's ridiculous.
- 3:05:13A £350 defensive lineman is running.
- 3:05:16They didn't have that. And then and they change the
- 3:05:18rules to better the offense. Does that make the game better?
- 3:05:22Well, it helps the youngsters bet on fantasy football.
- 3:05:26That's why he did it. Roger Goodell changed the games
- 3:05:30and the rules to help fantasy sports.
- 3:05:33He didn't do it for anything more than that.
- 3:05:35And I, and it just bothers me and that's why I wrote this
- 3:05:38article. Say whatever you want about what
- 3:05:41you think about it. And, and, and The funny thing
- 3:05:43and, and the way I kind of created it is Roger Goodell is
- 3:05:47the the devil. He really he's to me, that's
- 3:05:52what I think he is. And Tagliabue is the Angel of
- 3:05:56good. Eve is the you know, he he's,
- 3:05:59he's a good Angel trying to say, tried to save the league and
- 3:06:02made the league better. And I went back and forth and I
- 3:06:05tried to figure out how I could create something into a story
- 3:06:09and I had scoops actually read it before the show.
- 3:06:12And and Scoops. What did you what did you think
- 3:06:14about the the take of reading my story?
- 3:06:18I thought it was good. I thought it was very, very
- 3:06:20arrow like, if that makes any sense.
- 3:06:22But no, honestly, I think it went very much in.
- 3:06:25Depth with how Tagliabue and Goodell would handle a situation
- 3:06:30as if you were writing a story about them both at, at the
- 3:06:33moment that they were alive at the moment Tagliabue was alive
- 3:06:36at least. But you know, I I thought it was
- 3:06:38very I thought it was very concise.
- 3:06:39You know, you could see that word concise, concise.
- 3:06:43See, I don't see that job book don't make you spell it or
- 3:06:45whatever. Fish with a big word and fish
- 3:06:47with a big word. But no, yeah, I thought.
- 3:06:50Very well, I. Think exactly.
- 3:06:52What the way that? You inherited those both
- 3:06:56articles. With both those people on it, I
- 3:07:00think Taglibu and Goodell very much represented how in line
- 3:07:04that the NFL sees them and not only have the NFL season, but
- 3:07:07how you see him as well. Like you said, I just see I see
- 3:07:10the game differently and after I found out that Paul Taglibu has
- 3:07:14passed away at 84 years old. I think people forget the good
- 3:07:18that he brought to the league and the game and changed the
- 3:07:21game and made the game a world beater.
- 3:07:24You think about American football and what it is now
- 3:07:27today. It's not.
- 3:07:28It wouldn't be where it is today if it wasn't for Paul Tagliable.
- 3:07:32Nobody. And I know everybody's going to
- 3:07:34sit here and say, well, Goodell grew this and go, Goodell
- 3:07:37wouldn't be where he is today if it wasn't for Paul Taglibo.
- 3:07:40He was second in command. And I don't think anybody would
- 3:07:43have given Goodell the opportunity to be in second
- 3:07:46command unless Paul Taglibo was the one.
- 3:07:49And, and I, I just, I, I always say this, when you look at
- 3:07:54somebody's creation or what people grow from from nothing to
- 3:07:58something, you have to look at the meat part.
- 3:08:01And if you look at the meat part, the beef part, the, the
- 3:08:05sandwich that was created from 1989 to two O 2006 or 2005.
- 3:08:12It, it, it tells me what Tagliabue has done for the
- 3:08:14league and what Goodell hasn't done enough for the league.
- 3:08:18And that's my opinion towards it.
- 3:08:20I wanted to build back on what you said about fantasy embedding
- 3:08:22too, because that's also technology driven and more than
- 3:08:24it is just one person growing it like that was going to happen
- 3:08:27over time once that kind of access became available, phone
- 3:08:30apps and websites, all that stuff.
- 3:08:31Like Roger Goodell should not take like that much credit for
- 3:08:34that. Kind of, he does.
- 3:08:36Of course he does because he's an egomaniac who thinks he
- 3:08:38knows. He knows everything and
- 3:08:40meanwhile he's hurt what Tagli Abu bro with the NFL Europe,
- 3:08:43meanwhile, he's trying to put the games, all the games there.
- 3:08:45Meanwhile, that's not going to help.
- 3:08:47The same thing as having your own teams there have your own
- 3:08:49domestic league, whereas we've discussed it all the time.
- 3:08:51If you put a team in London, you put a team in Germany or
- 3:08:53whatever, they're going to have to travel.
- 3:08:55It's on the players that get so worn out.
- 3:08:57And at the same time you have somebody like Tagli Abu saving
- 3:08:59the Seahawks team. We consider them to 12, man, one
- 3:09:01of the best fan bases, the Saints, Jerry, you're a Saints
- 3:09:03fan, one of the best fan bases in the NFL.
- 3:09:05And that wouldn't have been there.
- 3:09:06It wasn't for Taglibo. Yeah, I think it's an incredible
- 3:09:09feat. And and I think Taglibo may rest
- 3:09:11in peace. My my heart goes out to him and
- 3:09:13his family. To hear somebody like that go,
- 3:09:16go 84 years old, that's still kind of young and and congestive
- 3:09:22heart failure. I mean, that's horrible way to
- 3:09:24go. But Jabba, your thoughts?
- 3:09:26Yeah, I think that's it. It's kind of across the board
- 3:09:29when you see, you know, commissioners and heads of, you
- 3:09:33know, corporations. Or.
- 3:09:34Whatever it's just you, you kind of ride the coattails of
- 3:09:37everything that that somebody's done.
- 3:09:39We've seen and in presidencies, we've seen it in corporations,
- 3:09:42we see it here. It's like, you know, it's, it's
- 3:09:44where does the credit start? Where does it end?
- 3:09:46Where does the new credit start? And you know, obviously the
- 3:09:49sport has continued to grow and it's because the men before and
- 3:09:53that's that's obviously in a lot of things in life too.
- 3:09:56And you know, and you have to, you have to understand and give
- 3:09:59credit where credit's due. Sometimes people don't, which,
- 3:10:02you know, this sucks, but people that really understand whatever
- 3:10:05know the work that a lot of these predecessors that come in
- 3:10:11know that they did the work. You just try to make it better
- 3:10:13and, and do that. So it's just great men.
- 3:10:16And great positions. Do really?
- 3:10:17Really good things, but you don't do it by yourself.
- 3:10:19You do it with everybody around you.
- 3:10:21And, and there's a board that they got.
- 3:10:23So it's, you know, obviously Goodell has done some great
- 3:10:25things, but he also learned and had him by his side to be able
- 3:10:29to help. And you know, really he, he was
- 3:10:32like, hey, have all the credit. I know what I did.
- 3:10:34I don't need, I don't need the pat on the butt to to say that I
- 3:10:37did. What I did?
- 3:10:38And. The best way that I could.
- 3:10:39So, you know, Goodell is they is that kind of that personality
- 3:10:43that Tagli Abou wasn't. So they go hand in hand and and
- 3:10:47we've seen it on all sides of the fence.
- 3:10:48But yeah, it's crazy. You know, when when good ones
- 3:10:51go, it always it always stinks. But 84 is a good run.
- 3:10:55I hope, God willing, I can I can make it to 84 the way I I stress
- 3:11:00out. I don't know if I'm going to
- 3:11:01live past 80, you know. Anyways, I I want to ask you
- 3:11:04bring goody in. I got a question.
- 3:11:06He asked both of you guys because you both understand the
- 3:11:10transition of the game. I mean, obviously Bud Selig and
- 3:11:14now Rob Manford, you have two different commissioners. 1 was
- 3:11:19the second in command. You seen the difference of what
- 3:11:21Bud Selig brought to the game. A lot of people question what
- 3:11:25Bud Selig has done obviously with the steroid era and it
- 3:11:30doesn't really take full responsibility for it.
- 3:11:32Now he's sitting in the Hall of Fame and George Steinberg is
- 3:11:35still not there. Makes no sense.
- 3:11:37And now you look at Rob Manford, they change of the game and the
- 3:11:40the transition of the game. When you look at both guys,
- 3:11:44would you have if, if you had a chance to choose between 1:00 or
- 3:11:47the other, would you have kept Bud Selig in?
- 3:11:50Or do you like what Rob Manfred has done for the game and do you
- 3:11:54think he's done better for the game since he's taken over?
- 3:11:57Go ahead, goody. I like what Bud Selig did.
- 3:12:00I think too many changes have been made.
- 3:12:02But then again, I mean, they're tailoring the game towards fans,
- 3:12:05but. Just been a lot of.
- 3:12:06Like I don't want to say controversies, but with the
- 3:12:10juice baseballs and you know, all the different rule changes
- 3:12:15and what not going on, I think for a lot of baseball fans that
- 3:12:18are traditionalists, it's probably just a little bit too
- 3:12:20much too soon. If you pick up a Bud Selig ball
- 3:12:24and you pick a a Rob Manfred ball, you can tell the
- 3:12:28difference right off the. Bat they're way different.
- 3:12:30It's it's weird. I mean every and you can kind of
- 3:12:34go stadium to stadium, but put balls in general when you get.
- 3:12:37Where you could 100. Percent tell the.
- 3:12:39Difference, You have to evolve with times and change and I get
- 3:12:43it. And there's obviously some
- 3:12:44things that Bud did that you know people didn't agree with.
- 3:12:47You know, he left and was still a commissioner but still had an
- 3:12:50office at the Brewers Stadium. That is that his daughter said
- 3:12:52and that a lot of people didn't agree with.
- 3:12:54But. Yeah.
- 3:12:56It's, you know, it's you're kind of, you're can't win for losing
- 3:13:00really when you're kind of in those positions because you're
- 3:13:03damned if you do, damned if you don't for some.
- 3:13:04Things you know. You're always going to be under
- 3:13:06the microscope. So it's it's tough.
- 3:13:09I don't know if I'd ever want to be in that position just because
- 3:13:11it's you. You kind of you have to listen
- 3:13:14to all sides and sometimes. You.
- 3:13:17Get clouded in in how your your perception as a person of what
- 3:13:20do you want to see for this game and these the people that you
- 3:13:23know are. Valued to this game.
- 3:13:26Is tough to do when you got so many directions of the business
- 3:13:29side, the personal side and everything else.
- 3:13:31So it does get tough, you know, being in those meetings
- 3:13:34sometimes aren't very fun when you're, you know, going through
- 3:13:37them and, you know, they talk about the state of the.
- 3:13:39Game. And, and I can only speak about
- 3:13:41my sport, obviously, I don't, I don't know much about what goes
- 3:13:44on in the other sides of it. But yeah, I just, I think Bud
- 3:13:48was a was a different kind of more old school and, and I I
- 3:13:51guess Rob is kind of been thrown to the wolves a little bit.
- 3:13:54How the game has changed. And what it is?
- 3:13:57I mean, there's some things that people like, There's some
- 3:13:58people, some things that people. Didn't think they.
- 3:14:01Would like that. Haven't really changed much of
- 3:14:03the game. Then there's others where I'm
- 3:14:05just like, this is stupid. Like it frustrates me as a
- 3:14:07baseball enthusiast and somebody that loves the game of baseball
- 3:14:11where you're like, is it really his final decision?
- 3:14:13Yeah. But is there more that goes into
- 3:14:16it? Yeah.
- 3:14:16I mean, it's the end of the day. Manfred is has grown the game of
- 3:14:21baseball, you know, so I guess he's doing his job.
- 3:14:24It's just. Maybe.
- 3:14:26Maybe for some it's, you know, too soon, too much too, too
- 3:14:29soon. I guess.
- 3:14:30You know what, you know what turns me off is we, we spoke
- 3:14:33about it and we had obviously Tim Donaghy on the show and, and
- 3:14:37we I brought up. David Stern, you know what I
- 3:14:39think about Adam Silver and what he has done for the game of
- 3:14:41basketball. I think he's let the players
- 3:14:43completely take over the game and, and he didn't like Stern
- 3:14:47for, for some reason, but obviously many reasons.
- 3:14:51And, and I, I put two and two together with what David Stern
- 3:14:55did and then Adam Silver. And if you look at what Stern
- 3:14:58did, he didn't let anybody push him around.
- 3:15:00When when Stern, you heard it from Tim, Tim said, he said he
- 3:15:05was, he reached out to the FBI and the FBI was afraid of him.
- 3:15:09He would not let go of this until he dropped the hammer on
- 3:15:14Tim Donaghy. So he wanted to put it on
- 3:15:17somebody and he put it on somebody.
- 3:15:18So it was interesting because I, I, I brought up Adam Silver and
- 3:15:22he smiled and he said Adam Silver should be fired because
- 3:15:26Tim knows the situation for what it is.
- 3:15:28And then he didn't like David Stern.
- 3:15:30So he says, yes, the league has grown, but he said, is it
- 3:15:34growing for the better? And, and you could see the the
- 3:15:36backfire. What Adam Silver is going to get
- 3:15:39if, if there's something that Adam Silver is going to be
- 3:15:42remembered by, he is going to be remembered by being pushed out,
- 3:15:46being pushed around by the players.
- 3:15:48Because this is around the time LeBron James or the LJA really
- 3:15:52took over. And you look at when David Stern
- 3:15:55was there, Michael Jordan was the superstar player.
- 3:15:57He was the guy and David Stern built the league around him.
- 3:16:01And that was the best time for basketball because you had Larry
- 3:16:04Bird magic. You had some of the greatest
- 3:16:07basketball players of all time. Now let's go to football.
- 3:16:10We talk about Taglia Boo and Goodell.
- 3:16:13And you look at the game Taglia Boo never made anywhere close to
- 3:16:18the money this idiot is making right now.
- 3:16:20This guy's making 55,000,000 a year.
- 3:16:23He's got his own. Chat him and his.
- 3:16:24Family have a lifetime of insurance.
- 3:16:28Their players don't, but they do.
- 3:16:31And, and that's why I wrote this story, because I feel like Roger
- 3:16:34Goodell is the devil. I, I, as much as everybody sits
- 3:16:37here and says, well, he's growing the game.
- 3:16:39He's made the game better. He's done this, he's done that.
- 3:16:41He's made more offense. No, he is the, he, the way he
- 3:16:45looks at the game is OK. How am I going to bring in more
- 3:16:49fans to watch a sport that is not what it used to be?
- 3:16:54It's not fun to watch anymore. And then after all that, he has
- 3:16:58these players getting away with things domestically, as you have
- 3:17:02Greg Hardy come back. This guy pulverized his
- 3:17:06girlfriend. He beat the hell out of his
- 3:17:08girlfriend, almost killed her, and this guy gets signed by the
- 3:17:12Cowboys after the fact. And that to me is a big problem
- 3:17:17because the NFL, if it was Taglibo, that guy would have
- 3:17:21been out of the league. He would have absolutely
- 3:17:23suspended that guy out of the league.
- 3:17:26And that's what he was. I think these new commissioners
- 3:17:29are been more lenient. Gary Bettman, That's why he's
- 3:17:32the best commissioner in sports right now, because Gary Bettman,
- 3:17:35Bettman's been around for over 30 years and he's not being
- 3:17:39pushed out. He's helping the game grow and
- 3:17:41he's showing that what he is doing, The development of
- 3:17:44decades has made the game more interesting for the younger fan
- 3:17:48to watch. And that's why I think Gary
- 3:17:51Bettman is the best commissioner in sports.
- 3:17:53And, and I think it's it's bad right now because we don't know
- 3:17:57where sports is going now that we were just talking about.
- 3:18:00Sports betting has become legalized in 39 states.
- 3:18:04I that's why I wrote the story. I I mean, I hope everybody
- 3:18:08checks out. Wow, so stupid.
- 3:18:09I don't know what's going on, but the Packers, I guess you
- 3:18:12guys are talking about the Packer game.
- 3:18:15I'll tell you this right now. This is one of the worst
- 3:18:20football you when you look at these two rosters and these two
- 3:18:22teams, you would think, wow, this game is going to be fun to
- 3:18:25watch. This game has been absolutely
- 3:18:28pathetic. And the Eagles, if they win this
- 3:18:30game, as you know, their idiot coach is sitting there pumping
- 3:18:34his hands up in the air. It they should be ashamed of
- 3:18:37themselves putting us on national television because this
- 3:18:39has been a horrible game, horrible football game.
- 3:18:42And yeah, Fish is losing right now.
- 3:18:44I don't think he's very happy right now.
- 3:18:46But I I think Gary Bettman, terrible call.
- 3:18:53Leave it up to Fish. Terrible call.
- 3:19:00But I I wanted. To hear you guys take because
- 3:19:03you guys were you, you've been a part.
- 3:19:04Of the league, you've seen the league for what it was in the
- 3:19:07transition of the league. It's very interesting how good
- 3:19:09he went with sealing. And I would say Jabba is pushing
- 3:19:13more to Manford. Am I?
- 3:19:15Am I right about that? Are you?
- 3:19:17I mean, it's just there was, there was, there's been more
- 3:19:21change, I guess. I mean, we can agree that
- 3:19:24there's been more. Change.
- 3:19:26As it. Happened fast.
- 3:19:28I think it Selig was kind of in in an era where it was kind of
- 3:19:32there was the steroid era that I guess towards the end was
- 3:19:36probably was that the Rocky Shimadore ball stupid thing or
- 3:19:41whatever. So yeah, I, I don't really care.
- 3:19:46Like honestly. There's they're going to be
- 3:19:49there, but at the end of the day, I don't really have much to
- 3:19:52say because you don't really have encounters.
- 3:19:54You just do you hope he does it for the right reason.
- 3:19:56I'm going to tell you guys, I'm going to tell you guys this.
- 3:19:58This is a great segment because I I didn't know where it was
- 3:20:02going to go and I wanted to know and it's interesting.
- 3:20:05How Goody likes the old way he he he thinks that Bud, the
- 3:20:10transition of Bud and maybe right now the way the league is
- 3:20:14transitioned, maybe if Bud was the commissioner, it'd be a
- 3:20:17different sport, maybe a better sport.
- 3:20:18And, and, and I think Jopbo goes the other way and looking at the
- 3:20:22sport where he likes the transition, he thinks it's open
- 3:20:25up the floodgates for the sport to grow.
- 3:20:27So it's interesting. It really is again, this to me,
- 3:20:32the Tagli Boo and the Goodell story that I have written up,
- 3:20:36I'm telling you guys read it. It's funny and it's it's my take
- 3:20:40of thought on where I think the NFL has gone and disturbing what
- 3:20:45I think Rodger Goodell is as a person.
- 3:20:47So it's funny. If you like to laugh, read it.
- 3:20:51It's funny. That's all I'm going to say.
- 3:20:54All right, ladies and gentlemen, dial it up.
- 3:20:57We interrupted this regularly scheduled hot mix to bring your
- 3:21:00important news. We got a big broadcast to do
- 3:21:03here. We're about to dial it all.
- 3:21:10It up All right, everybody welcome.
- 3:21:11Back to dial it up, everyone. 'S favorite lightning round news
- 3:21:16segment we're going to. Start it off.
- 3:21:18Errol hasn't heard any of these yet.
- 3:21:20He's going to hear him for the first.
- 3:21:21Time in this read and he's going to comment on him and we'll have
- 3:21:24one person go back and forth. We're going to start with the
- 3:21:27Big 10, Errol. There is a real interesting move
- 3:21:30that happened. Well, the Big 10 officials
- 3:21:34decided to move ahead without two of their member teams.
- 3:21:40Hold on. It's just a little too loud.
- 3:21:42Tommy, let's bring that down. All right, The 18 team Big 10.
- 3:21:46Conference. Only decided to use sixteen of
- 3:21:50its teams, Errol without Michigan and USC to decide to go
- 3:21:53forwards on a $24 billion capital investment with, get
- 3:21:58this, the California Pension fund investment Capital Group.
- 3:22:04The deal ties the Big 10 to the group for 20 years and would
- 3:22:09provide uneven distribution of funds favoring its larger
- 3:22:14brands. USC and Michigan would receive
- 3:22:173rd and 4th most behind Ohio State and Penn State.
- 3:22:22I believe Michigan actually be third, USC 4th, but they don't
- 3:22:26like this deal. USC and Michigan we're told the
- 3:22:28deal is going to go ahead without them and they have three
- 3:22:31to six months to jump on to the deal as a grace period.
- 3:22:35Or, presumably they're out of the Big 10.
- 3:22:39This deal will enable schools to dip into these funds for things
- 3:22:42like paying off expensive fired coaches as well as their own
- 3:22:48capital expansions. Errol, the Big 10 is making big
- 3:22:55moves with some big money. Tie a little.
- 3:22:59It's interesting because Michigan and USC are two really
- 3:23:02good programs. Big programs very well known.
- 3:23:05And I think the way they look at it is their brand is bigger than
- 3:23:09the buddy that they're bringing in.
- 3:23:10I think they can make. And then I, I do believe they're
- 3:23:13going to agree to terms. I, I think they want more of a
- 3:23:16portion of it. And I think one way or another,
- 3:23:19they're going to find a way how they're going to negotiate the
- 3:23:21deal. There's no way they're going to
- 3:23:22step away from billions of dollars or even millions and
- 3:23:25millions of dollars when when you see the 24 billion mark.
- 3:23:30But the question is why are they holding back?
- 3:23:32What is the reason, the reasoning behind it?
- 3:23:36And I, I do believe Michigan feels like their program is at
- 3:23:39an all time high. They won a national
- 3:23:41championship, even though they cheated as they've been caught
- 3:23:45and and USC over the years, as we all know, they were a part of
- 3:23:49a cheating scandal as well during the Matt liner chime and
- 3:23:53and obviously the the coaching staff over there.
- 3:23:56So I interesting, I'm interested to see what what are the reasons
- 3:24:00why they're not buying into it right now that that's what I
- 3:24:05want to see. But I think in six months you're
- 3:24:07going to hear that they're going to buy into.
- 3:24:08There's no way they're going to walk away from money like that.
- 3:24:10Yeah, it's interesting because I think when you look at the Big
- 3:24:1210, they're trying to grow with the the PAC 10, PAC 10 and PAC
- 3:24:1612 teams already. And USC, it seems like the
- 3:24:18biggest name in that group. I know maybe they're not the
- 3:24:21most successful football program and Oregon collectively has
- 3:24:23mother good sports teams too, but it feels like they kind of
- 3:24:26both need each other, especially Michigan, Michigan in addition
- 3:24:29to football, Like they're really good with hockey, they're really
- 3:24:31good with basketball, they're really good with lacrosse,
- 3:24:33They're really good with everything I know.
- 3:24:34So it's like a lot of different things combined with that.
- 3:24:37So it's kind of weird like thinking that they wouldn't want
- 3:24:39to be involved in this and this being the next step in it,
- 3:24:41especially with all the sanctions they're going through
- 3:24:43with the football team. You would think they would want
- 3:24:45to be involved in this in USC just trying to recreate their
- 3:24:48image and not be more than just a short term football and
- 3:24:50sometimes good basketball school.
- 3:24:52That's really it. You know, they're going to buy
- 3:24:53into it. You know, they are.
- 3:24:55They're just sitting here waiting because they want a
- 3:24:58bigger portion of it because they think they're bigger than
- 3:25:00all the other schools except Ohio State.
- 3:25:02That's the only reason why. Yeah.
- 3:25:03And then there's enough of a rivalry aspect, too, that you
- 3:25:05have to compete from an INIL perspective with Ohio State.
- 3:25:08Ohio State's addition to Texas is like, the most every year
- 3:25:11with their football. You know what I heard?
- 3:25:12You know what I heard? Lincoln Riley might leave
- 3:25:16college football to become an offensive coordinator next year
- 3:25:20in the NFL. There is a story that I have
- 3:25:23read and and somebody close to Lincoln Riley says that he might
- 3:25:27be interested in coming to the NFL as an offensive coordinator.
- 3:25:30Think about that. Not getting a coaching job and
- 3:25:32becoming an offensive coordinator in the NFL and
- 3:25:35getting a huge contract as an offensive coordinator.
- 3:25:37That's interesting because IA lot of people were thinking like
- 3:25:40him as a head coach in the NFL, which I wasn't crazy about.
- 3:25:43I don't think he is either because sometimes his game
- 3:25:45planning is in game coaching is not great, but as a schemer for
- 3:25:48the NFL, yeah, I could see that work.
- 3:25:50All right, let's move back while the Eagles make, I don't know,
- 3:25:54wild decision allowing the Packers back into this game.
- 3:25:59Oh my goodness, what? In God's name is going on.
- 3:26:02Over here, But we'll talk about that I guess on Wednesday.
- 3:26:06Let's. Get into.
- 3:26:06This Giants kicker, Errol, did you see that last week, Giants
- 3:26:10kicker Graham Gino reported about getting death threats.
- 3:26:15No, I haven't heard that. Following the game against the
- 3:26:1849ers in Week 9. Well, you know he's been hurt.
- 3:26:22Pretty much for the last like 3-4.
- 3:26:24Seasons, but before that was an excellent kicker.
- 3:26:26He's my age now basically. But he's missed.
- 3:26:29A lot of kicks this last couple of years.
- 3:26:31I hear everyone else's frustration.
- 3:26:33Media, fans shoot. Ever since sports betting
- 3:26:36started happening, I get people telling me to kill myself every
- 3:26:40week, Gino said. Because I'll hit a kick that
- 3:26:43loses them money. I'll miss a kick and it loses
- 3:26:45them money. It was the other day that
- 3:26:47someone told me to get cancer and die.
- 3:26:50I mean, that stuff is still part of it.
- 3:26:53It's all the same, Meryl. It's just what what are people
- 3:26:57doing when it comes to threatening kickers?
- 3:27:01And is this something that we got to really be worried about
- 3:27:05actually someone acting upon, especially these days with the
- 3:27:10gambling as we're seeing just. Being everywhere.
- 3:27:14And not to mention the guns already being everywhere.
- 3:27:17Dial it up. Well, think about it, The game
- 3:27:20has become all about gambling and now Gano's coming out and
- 3:27:24saying if I miss a. Kick it cost them money, cost
- 3:27:27them, you know, obviously pop bats and all this other stuff.
- 3:27:30To me, it's becoming more of an importance for the NFL to
- 3:27:35investigate this. I would be afraid if I'm a
- 3:27:38professional athlete and somebody is better, like some
- 3:27:42kind of mafia guy is betting on a game that I have to score two
- 3:27:45goals. And if I don't score two goals,
- 3:27:47they're going to lose $1,000,000 or they're going to lose 2 or
- 3:27:49$3,000,000 that they're going to send me death threats.
- 3:27:52I got to worry about putting that buck in the net on my
- 3:27:54family's going to be murdered. That is the problem and, and the
- 3:27:58mafia in the in the 90s and in the 80s, they would do that.
- 3:28:02They would go to you and tell you, you better shave off this,
- 3:28:04you better shave off that or you're, I'm going to kick your
- 3:28:06family. That would, that would affect me
- 3:28:09mentally and, and my family and my life and my livelihood as a
- 3:28:14professional athlete. I, I, I agree with Kuno.
- 3:28:17Why, why do I have to worry about going out there and making
- 3:28:21a kick? All I got to should worry about
- 3:28:23is doing what my job is there. You know, if, if I miss a kick,
- 3:28:27it shouldn't be, oh, I'm going to, I have to worry about being
- 3:28:29killed. I'm worried about my family
- 3:28:31getting shot up and my house getting shot up because they
- 3:28:33know where I live. That's scary as an as any kind
- 3:28:37of athlete, Jabba, you know that, Goody?
- 3:28:39You know that if you're playing in a baseball game and you,
- 3:28:42you're getting death threats that you better strike out the
- 3:28:44side or you're, you're I'm going to shoot up your house or that's
- 3:28:47it. And you're getting a letter in
- 3:28:49the mail or you're getting all this stuff that would scare the
- 3:28:51hell out of me when I have newborn kids or I have kids and
- 3:28:54I have a family I have to worry about and I have to protect.
- 3:28:56I agree with Gano. I, I shouldn't have to worry
- 3:28:59about that specific situation because I'm, I'm missing kicks
- 3:29:04or I'm not having a good week. 100%.
- 3:29:06And the fact that, you know, like you mentioned, the fact
- 3:29:08that like Cano's family is in danger, the fact that he's on
- 3:29:12the list or what not. Whatever it may be, the fact
- 3:29:15this is that you know Cano is is the Giants kicker.
- 3:29:19Now, of course, me as a Giants fan, I would of course hope that
- 3:29:22he makes every single kick, but sending death threats, sending
- 3:29:26tough stuff to his family or whatnot.
- 3:29:28That's a little bit out of out of out of left field or
- 3:29:30whatever. So my thing is, is that I think,
- 3:29:33of course, I had Justin Jefferson on my fantasy team
- 3:29:35last year for one of my fantasy teams.
- 3:29:38Whole point is, is that Justin Jefferson even made a good point
- 3:29:40about it too. He says I shouldn't worry about
- 3:29:42my health. I shouldn't have to worry about
- 3:29:44me rushing my health back. Me have to worry about my who,
- 3:29:47who I am or whatnot because you guys fantasy team is like not
- 3:29:52doing good or whatnot. Now my thing, I'm like a serial
- 3:29:54killer. My thing is, is that, you know,
- 3:29:57of course, Justin Jefferson is one of the best wide receivers
- 3:30:00in the league and. Graham Cano is one of the best
- 3:30:02kickers in the. League hoping this is that I
- 3:30:04think when you get to the point that you're over here sending
- 3:30:07death threats to the person's family sending death threats to
- 3:30:09the person that goes a little bit too far out into what the
- 3:30:13sport is known as of course from what's in the sport is supposed
- 3:30:16to be represented as I I personally don't think it's of
- 3:30:19course, like you mentioned Graham Cano shouldn't be having
- 3:30:22to have to worry about if he makes the next kick or whatnot
- 3:30:25because the mafia might have to come after his family or whatnot
- 3:30:27or whoever may be that has to come after his family or
- 3:30:30whatnot. My whole point is is that I feel
- 3:30:32like keep the game respectful keep the game how it's supposed
- 3:30:35to be played and just have fun that's really all it's I went
- 3:30:38over like a fart in church. It's not supposed to go like a
- 3:30:40fart in church and it's not supposed to go like a death
- 3:30:42threat in church or wherever the hell you might be.
- 3:30:45So death threat in church, threat in Tommy the pastor.
- 3:30:52No, no, we're going to. We're going to avoid any death
- 3:30:56threats of the pastor or whoever.
- 3:30:58Sometimes I said church. And like Java said.
- 3:31:01Sometimes he may sit on it so. We're gonna go with that.
- 3:31:04There's just a line in sports that you shouldn't.
- 3:31:06Cross and that's one. Of them he wanted.
- 3:31:08To give a shout out to the Giants mental health department,
- 3:31:11which he said it helped. Him through tough times,
- 3:31:14especially with things directed at.
- 3:31:15His family and children, which apparently happened frequently.
- 3:31:20Some of the thing about when you're cursing off the kicker
- 3:31:23for missing the kick or making the kick or making the over hit
- 3:31:27and you had the under kind of ridiculous guys.
- 3:31:31All right, moving on, next story.
- 3:31:34Alexander Ovechkin last week became the first ever player in
- 3:31:39hockey history to reach 900 goals.
- 3:31:44Sidney Crosby is the closest active player with 636 goals.
- 3:31:49We know he's not going to make it.
- 3:31:51So who's close? Well, the youngest player with
- 3:31:54over 400 goals is Austin Matthews.
- 3:31:57He has 410 at age 28, just turned 28 actually last month.
- 3:32:03So if anyone has a shot, it appears to be him.
- 3:32:06A couple other younger guys a little further down the list as
- 3:32:09well. But Errol, you know the
- 3:32:11question, it's really a question to ask now that we have someone
- 3:32:15at 900, is this ever going to happen again?
- 3:32:18Can somebody do this or is this just, you know, this was a
- 3:32:22legendary thing that we got to see that maybe we should have
- 3:32:27not taken for granted every time he was on the ice.
- 3:32:31Dial it up. You know what's so funny?
- 3:32:33The first time I watched Alexander Ovechkin play was
- 3:32:36before he was. Drafted in the.
- 3:32:38Olympics and everybody was talking about this guy like he's
- 3:32:41going to be one of the more special players that Russia has
- 3:32:44ever had. When we talked to some of the
- 3:32:46great guys, the Sergei Fedorov's, the Alexander McGill
- 3:32:49knees, the Pavel Bores, I, I remember all the great Russian
- 3:32:53players. And then you, you look at this
- 3:32:56guy and, and the guy was built like a truck and he can hit like
- 3:33:00a truck. And he, when he came into the
- 3:33:01league automatically fifty goals, fifty goals, fifty goals.
- 3:33:05And, and I, I said, this guy's a machine.
- 3:33:07And I don't think anybody's going to be able to compare to
- 3:33:10this guy. And now as we watch this guy
- 3:33:12grow into the player that he has become and recently coming out,
- 3:33:16when they asked him as like, how many years do you think you have
- 3:33:18left? And he says, I'm going to keep
- 3:33:19playing. My kids want me to play, I'm
- 3:33:21going to play. I don't think this is ever going
- 3:33:24to happen again. As a matter of fact, I don't
- 3:33:27think he's done. I, I think this guy is going to
- 3:33:29play at least another two more years.
- 3:33:32I wouldn't be surprised if he hits 950 or maybe even close to
- 3:33:361000. I, I don't think we're going to
- 3:33:38see a player like this again. When we talk about the Babe
- 3:33:42Roots, the guys that have transitioned the game
- 3:33:46offensively, I think he's a offensive changer, changing
- 3:33:50player. I don't think we'll ever see a
- 3:33:52player of this magnitude. The Gordie Howes of the 60s and
- 3:33:55the 50s and then a transition the way it did to the Wayne
- 3:33:59Gretzky's and then the Mario Lemuse and the Yammer Yagers and
- 3:34:03now we have Alexander Ovechkin. I don't think we'll ever see
- 3:34:07this again. This guy is the greatest goal
- 3:34:09scorer we'll ever see. I guarantee it.
- 3:34:12Austin Matthews isn't going to come close, not even close to
- 3:34:16this guy. This guy.
- 3:34:17This guy stays healthy too. He's always healthy.
- 3:34:21He plays her. It's crazy.
- 3:34:23Austin Matthews don't broken leg that one year, didn't he?
- 3:34:26This guy, Austin Matthews, when he breaks a toe, it breaks a
- 3:34:30finger. It breaks a nail.
- 3:34:31He's. Out for two or three weeks.
- 3:34:34This guy, this record will never be broken again, ever.
- 3:34:38Ever, you know, you know, you've mentioned Jager and that's the
- 3:34:42name that that I wanted to bring up when I was a kid.
- 3:34:45That was the. Guy, you know what?
- 3:34:46Especially Lemieux was retired. It was Jager, that guy, as soon
- 3:34:50as he might not have had the best team that year, he was on
- 3:34:53the Rangers. For a while there.
- 3:34:55He bounced around, but wherever he was when the puck hit his
- 3:34:59stick, everybody knew and there were all eyes where they needed
- 3:35:03to be that just just electric with the puck.
- 3:35:07And I would say Ovechkin gives you the same feeling, maybe even
- 3:35:11more so because of how fast of a skater he was throughout most of
- 3:35:14his career. Jager wasn't as fast later in
- 3:35:17his career, more of like a like a punk control guy later in his
- 3:35:20career. Ovechkin kind of played the same
- 3:35:22way all along and it was just this lightning fast power
- 3:35:26forward, just with the best shot accurate shot off his nails, did
- 3:35:31all The Dirty work. It was the guy that I spent more
- 3:35:36money going to hockey games against him as a Rangers fan
- 3:35:41then probably against anybody else out of my entire time being
- 3:35:45a hockey fan. So, you know, it's just amazing
- 3:35:48to see it. You know, I get to tell people I
- 3:35:50used to go see one of the greats and I do hope I get to see him
- 3:35:53one more time before you will. I, I everything that I've heard
- 3:35:58recently on an interview, on a podcast, he said.
- 3:36:01They asked him how many years is.
- 3:36:03This your last year? It says my kids are getting
- 3:36:05older, they want to see dad play.
- 3:36:07And I want my kids never really got a chance to see me because
- 3:36:10they're young and now they want to see me play.
- 3:36:12So I'm going to continue playing until I feel I can't do it
- 3:36:15anymore. And he he's playing in the
- 3:36:19hardest league in professional hockey and sports.
- 3:36:22Think about it. Yarmi Roger had to go to
- 3:36:24Czechoslovakia to continue playing.
- 3:36:26This guy is dominating still in the NHL, the National Hockey
- 3:36:30League, at the age of almost 40. Yeah, and he's got 10 points in
- 3:36:34his first 15 games in this already.
- 3:36:37Just unbelievable. Real sad.
- 3:36:40Story. For this next one, Dallas
- 3:36:42defensive end Marshawn Nealon passed.
- 3:36:44Away at age 20. 4 from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
- 3:36:48This happened on Thursday. If you guys are pretty much it
- 3:36:51was everywhere last week took his own life after a police
- 3:36:56chase north of Dallas. It led to the police finding him
- 3:37:01dead near his car from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
- 3:37:06Apparently, according to the police dispatch audio obtained.
- 3:37:10I'm assuming it was either TMZ or one of those places might
- 3:37:14have actually been People magazine reports say that texted
- 3:37:16his family goodbye before his death.
- 3:37:19He had just scored his first NFL touchdown only a few days
- 3:37:23earlier and he was 24 years old. Errol, it's I, you know, there's
- 3:37:28been a lot of discussion since this about mental health, about,
- 3:37:33you know, how you can let things get away from you and you kind
- 3:37:37of don't have the bigger picture clear in front of you sometimes.
- 3:37:42And, you know, obviously kind of like, kind of like anyone who
- 3:37:45wants to say anything on this one, go for it.
- 3:37:48But just real sad. Never want to see a guy this
- 3:37:51young, you know, take, take his life so senselessly.
- 3:37:55I just want to say something I wasn't giggling at.
- 3:37:57I'm looking at Nathan. He is like dead to the world on
- 3:38:00his couch. He's here.
- 3:38:02He's laying right there. I, I, he was like, I had to
- 3:38:07giggle at it because I'm like, this guy is out and about.
- 3:38:09Right over. There laying down, he's just
- 3:38:12He's asleep yeah, he was dead he was dead now he just woke up and
- 3:38:17doesn't sleep he waits. He.
- 3:38:19Waits. This.
- 3:38:20Is horrible. Story and I I Nathan actually
- 3:38:24reached out to me. And he told me, Did you hear
- 3:38:26about? Marshawn Nealon and I said no,
- 3:38:29and he told me he killed himself.
- 3:38:32And when you think about obviously mental health CTE
- 3:38:36situations that we've heard over the last couple of years and
- 3:38:39then recently what happened about the kid who drove all the
- 3:38:42way from Arizona to go to the headquarters of the NFL and
- 3:38:46shoot off the NFL and kill that kill the the security guard and
- 3:38:50the cop and, and, and multiple almost killed multiple people.
- 3:38:53So I mean, think about it with all the different stuff that we
- 3:38:57have seen over the last couple of years.
- 3:39:00And then you see this story. And this is a kid that we've
- 3:39:03heard from different people that a different teammates and even
- 3:39:08teammates that are no longer a part of the part of the Cowboys
- 3:39:12organization that's playing for the Packers organization.
- 3:39:15And Michael Parsons saying that the kid is he was a special kid,
- 3:39:18a good kid, kind soul, always there, always respectful, always
- 3:39:23understand, wants to learn. And he says, I could never
- 3:39:26imagine or can never. I didn't even see what was going
- 3:39:29on. And he actually, Michael Parsons
- 3:39:31came out and said, listen, his family, if his family ever needs
- 3:39:34anything or needs my help, I'm going to be there for them.
- 3:39:37It's a horrible, horrible situation.
- 3:39:39And you know, I, I just hope that what is going on in the
- 3:39:45world and all the different things in the trials and
- 3:39:48tribulations that we're going through that the, the world can
- 3:39:52see this and mental help and try to help certain people.
- 3:39:55When you see this problem, you see the situation that is
- 3:39:58happening to a certain person that you try to help them, you
- 3:40:02try to go out there and reach out to them and make sure that
- 3:40:04they're taken care of. It is a horrible story.
- 3:40:07He's a kid, man. I I he mid 20s dead.
- 3:40:12Not even not even. Sad first and foremost,
- 3:40:16obviously, but a lot of it too is, you know, you feel.
- 3:40:20Like you have the weight of the world, you're trying to take
- 3:40:22care of your family or whatever. And a lot of people don't know
- 3:40:24what's going on because they don't say anything.
- 3:40:26And you know, now day and age and you know, back, you know,
- 3:40:30years ago, you didn't, you didn't talk about it.
- 3:40:32And now it's, you know, come to the forefront where you need to
- 3:40:36talk about it. And and don't feel like you're
- 3:40:38less of a person if you know, you feel like you need help
- 3:40:40every once. We all need help, you know, So
- 3:40:43it's just, it's sad, especially at 24.
- 3:40:46And sometimes we think we're invincible and we can, you know,
- 3:40:49handle everything. On our own, we've all.
- 3:40:50Been there where we think, you know, we can handle this.
- 3:40:52We can't. Then it comes overwhelming and
- 3:40:55you. Know things?
- 3:40:55Happen. They pile up and, you know, it's
- 3:40:58just as we get older and and, you know, some people don't have
- 3:41:01that chance and he didn't have that chance.
- 3:41:03So you can just hope and pray that, you know, if, if something
- 3:41:07as as tragic as this can, you know, open somebody's eyes to,
- 3:41:10you know, to help them not go through this situation and be
- 3:41:13able to help themselves so that another family doesn't have to
- 3:41:16deal with that, then, you know, we're, we're all getting better.
- 3:41:19And it's just, it's sad that sometimes that's that's what it
- 3:41:23takes. And he had a a lot of life ahead
- 3:41:25of him, but you just pray for his family and and everybody
- 3:41:28around him and friends and family that they can come
- 3:41:30together and, you know, recognize him and celebrate him
- 3:41:33for, for all that he did. Yeah, I want to mention, too,
- 3:41:35like you wonder how long it was going on even when he was in
- 3:41:37college, too. He was a 2023 draft pick.
- 3:41:39And he was never. Like we talked about, the
- 3:41:41Cowboys like drafting all these. Guys that have the quote UN
- 3:41:43quote character issues in the past, but this was not never
- 3:41:46thought of that. But you never know what he's
- 3:41:47going through and it wasn't revealed in even something like
- 3:41:51that that the text. But you and Jabba, you mentioned
- 3:41:53it like you, you never know on that side like from teammates,
- 3:41:57even position group meetings and stuff like that.
- 3:41:59What you're going through is a football player because you're
- 3:42:01trying to be that tough guy. You're trying to like stand out
- 3:42:03as an athlete. Meanwhile, how these guys have
- 3:42:06had issues that Dak Prescott during the pandemic, his
- 3:42:09teammate obviously was one of the biggest advocates for mental
- 3:42:11health in the NFL at the time too.
- 3:42:13And it's really his brother, his brother committed to correct for
- 3:42:16that reason. And you, you saw that arrow we
- 3:42:18talked about with Henry Ruggs too, like he lost a close
- 3:42:20friend. And, and sometimes it leads them
- 3:42:22to do bad things. Other times it just
- 3:42:24unfortunately, it's unfortunate things.
- 3:42:25I will say something that Michael Parsons said.
- 3:42:28He says you don't understand how much pressure athletes go
- 3:42:31through because you're you don't know who's over over your
- 3:42:35shoulder or who's going to take your job away from you.
- 3:42:37And he said that the pressure that you have on yourself every
- 3:42:43single day of your life because you want to go out there and
- 3:42:46prove yourself. And sometimes you just can't
- 3:42:49compete. And he said that's what it a
- 3:42:52professional athlete has to go through.
- 3:42:53And we have two of them on the show that have gone through it,
- 3:42:57realizing that it was time. Time is over.
- 3:43:01I can't compete anymore with the younger players or I just, you
- 3:43:05know, my arm went out or my leg went out or my ankle went out.
- 3:43:09And I'm not the same player look we're seeing with Klay Thompson
- 3:43:12right now as we speak. As a professional basketball
- 3:43:15player, this guy was one of the greatest shooters we've ever
- 3:43:17seen. So it's scary when Michael
- 3:43:20Parsons comes out and says you don't know what kind of
- 3:43:22pressure, what it takes to be a professional athlete.
- 3:43:25Only athletes understand what it takes to be great and and be on
- 3:43:29top of your game. So and we've seen in like an all
- 3:43:31age group, we've seen in all sports too.
- 3:43:33Like Kevin Love was a big advocate for mental health as
- 3:43:35well. Fish, I think we talked about it
- 3:43:36last year with Kyle Singler, like what he had to go through.
- 3:43:39Like it was you don't really know it.
- 3:43:41It could be stars and it could be like, unlike Neyland, it was
- 3:43:44a young defensive end that was rising.
- 3:43:46But like, it wasn't thought of as a big name * But you don't.
- 3:43:49They don't get that same level of attention.
- 3:43:50And it's very sad. Yeah.
- 3:43:53Not going well for Singler. I had a.
- 3:43:54Sportsman out in a week or two ago.
- 3:43:56Apparently it's still going kind of South for him with the mental
- 3:43:59health. Everyone.
- 3:44:01If you're if you're struggling, reach out to somebody.
- 3:44:03We still got one more here for this wonderful dial it up.
- 3:44:09Oh, Errol. It's our favorite topic.
- 3:44:12Jordan Hudson's band jewelry. Yes, refuting Pablo Torres
- 3:44:19report that she was banned from the football program.
- 3:44:23Jordan Hudson showed up on the sidelines again at UNC latest
- 3:44:27football game wearing a necklace that says banned on it.
- 3:44:32UNC then clarify that she would not be working for the football
- 3:44:36program but would continue as the brand manager for her
- 3:44:40boyfriend, legendary coach Bill Belichick in that capacity and
- 3:44:46can be on the field in that capacity.
- 3:44:51So UNC is four and five this season and two and three in the
- 3:44:55ACC. Errol, the real reason this is
- 3:44:59up here is, is this what I'm going to have to look forward to
- 3:45:03next year on the sidelines at MetLife Stadium?
- 3:45:06Is this really what I'm going to have to deal with?
- 3:45:09Is this, is this what's happening?
- 3:45:12I need you to dial it up. The only thing I want to see is
- 3:45:16her half naked on the sidelines. If she's going to do any of
- 3:45:19that, that's what she should be doing.
- 3:45:21I don't want to hear about her branding and what she's doing
- 3:45:25for Bill Belichick and and North Carolina.
- 3:45:29UNC is a horrible football program right now.
- 3:45:32Belichick doesn't need branding. Who cares?
- 3:45:35I'm just saying she's come out and try to bring up her.
- 3:45:40Personality and and and and. She's been all over the place
- 3:45:45everywhere. ESPN loves her, CBS even loves
- 3:45:48Yahoo Sports, absolutely adores her.
- 3:45:51And, and, and what I think is a big problem is, is these kids
- 3:45:55that Bill Belichick has recruited or has brought them in
- 3:45:59through the portal is probably wondering, is the game about us
- 3:46:04or is the game about her? Because it's only been about her
- 3:46:08all season. All we've heard about UNC
- 3:46:11football is they suck and Bill Belichick's fiance or whatever
- 3:46:17the hell she is, is hot as hell and that's all I want to see is
- 3:46:20tits and ass. That's all I keep hearing about
- 3:46:23UNC football and if I was a recruiter or if I was a student
- 3:46:30that wants to be recruited by Bill Belichick, I'd rather go
- 3:46:34somewhere else and not have to deal with this debacle and
- 3:46:37disgrace. Honestly, I I think Bill
- 3:46:41Belichick needs to stop this and he needs to if he really cares
- 3:46:44about this program and wants to prove something for this
- 3:46:46program. He tells his girl to sit on the
- 3:46:50sidelines and shut up because to me, she's not making it any
- 3:46:55better for these young kids to even think to go and play for
- 3:46:58UNC football. Errol, you said it.
- 3:47:01If he cared about this program, he'd tell her to leave.
- 3:47:05He ain't telling her to leave. He don't care about.
- 3:47:08This program, in fact, he ain't going to give up that booty.
- 3:47:12He's not giving that up. Is what was she 3rd place Miss
- 3:47:17Main or or something like that? Good for her, you know, bronze
- 3:47:22medal. Still, I hope she bought him a
- 3:47:24lot of Cialis. I mean, in Belichick hearts.
- 3:47:27I mean, hey, what is he, 74 years old?
- 3:47:31Maybe we need to buy him. Maybe we need to buy him a new
- 3:47:33pump, if you know what I mean. That might work.
- 3:47:36But the Austin Powers. Pump the Austin Powers one I.
- 3:47:39Think he's a Peterson. Larger pump.
- 3:47:41Yeah, something needs to be enlarged because his brain
- 3:47:43isn't. I mean seriously, I am just so.
- 3:47:46I'm so fed. Up with seeing this?
- 3:47:49Girl, and you know what's so funny?
- 3:47:50I was watching ESPN the other day and they were talking about
- 3:47:52USUNC football and the first thing that popped up is her.
- 3:47:57Not the football team, not the logo, not Bill Belichick.
- 3:48:02It was her that is a problem. If I am a if I'm a kid trying to
- 3:48:07get recruited, do I want to deal with that?
- 3:48:11The. Answer would.
- 3:48:11Be No, I want to. I want me to have the attention.
- 3:48:16I'm I choose your school. I'm a top recruit.
- 3:48:19Why the hell do I want to deal with that crap?
- 3:48:21Stay the hell away. Stay away from UNC, please,
- 3:48:25guys, because Bill Belichick is watching.
- 3:48:28We're watching Bill Belichick fire and burn and he's burning
- 3:48:32himself and maybe burning a stake in his, you know, his, his
- 3:48:36abdomen or whatever you call it, his crotch pumping it up.
- 3:48:40So now, like if you, if you believe that, and I and I
- 3:48:43believe that too, that Belichick is just off the he's given up.
- 3:48:47He's given up. How?
- 3:48:48How? Long ago, as did he go off the
- 3:48:51deep end? Was it still a year or two left
- 3:48:53in New England? That he was off the deep end.
- 3:48:56You know, like how long has this been going on that he is just
- 3:48:59kind of out the long since the Tom Brady thing, honestly, since
- 3:49:02the Tom Brady thing. Remember on Netflix and
- 3:49:06everybody was talking about. Not attacking Robert Kraft and
- 3:49:09then he went up there and he surprised everybody and showed
- 3:49:11up there and they had a drink and Tom Brady gave him a drink
- 3:49:15and they're like, oh, drink it up.
- 3:49:16After that happened, the announcement of this, this
- 3:49:19woman, 24 year old woman that he started to date.
- 3:49:23That was when it happened, guys. Maybe whatever Tom Brady fed him
- 3:49:28or gave him drugged him enough to believe that he could sleep
- 3:49:32around with a 50 year less of an age of a man like that.
- 3:49:38And maybe she's half man, half animal or whatever the hell she
- 3:49:42is. She's definitely not half man.
- 3:49:44I don't know what you're talking about.
- 3:49:46I don't know, man. Hey, listen, there's a lot of
- 3:49:48things that happen in this world and the change of.
- 3:49:51Body structure can happen in just a split second.
- 3:49:54You're just describing some ancient Greek mythological job.
- 3:49:59Job, it says. Another total job.
- 3:50:01I will say this, I am staying far far away from.
- 3:50:06Talking. About UNC football.
- 3:50:08And by the way, if I was Drake May right now who was a UNC
- 3:50:12graduate and played for UNC football, I would absolutely be
- 3:50:17disgraced knowing that my my team and a team that I am
- 3:50:24rooting for and standing up for and what I'm doing right now in
- 3:50:27the NFLI got to deal with worrying about where my program
- 3:50:31is going with Bill Belichick in his 2 timing hoe.
- 3:50:36You know, So that's all that's all I'm going to say.
- 3:50:40That's what that's what she is. I mean, am I?
- 3:50:42Am I? Lying.
- 3:50:43That's what she is. She dances Well.
- 3:50:45How do you know she's 2? Timing.
- 3:50:48No, she's definitely. He's definitely not her first.
- 3:50:51OK. And won't be his.
- 3:50:55Won't. Be her last.
- 3:50:57She knows what she's doing. Mucho Dinero her new Possibly
- 3:51:00she ain't gonna. Do time nothing and.
- 3:51:02Lose that money, Train. Come on now.
- 3:51:04No, that train is definitely jumping aboard 2/2 her.
- 3:51:08Little 2 tops and all that other stuff.
- 3:51:11Anyways, that's it. For a show, ladies and
- 3:51:13gentlemen, the Goodster shows. Up as we.
- 3:51:16We love him. We're finally, we finally got
- 3:51:18him back. I know he's been busy.
