25W: The One Stadium Bobby Refuses To Step Foot In + LeBron’s Future as a Laker with Law Murray + NFL International Games Debate · 25 Whistles with Bobby Bones (A Football Podcast)

0:03
Speaker 1: This is a podcast called twenty five whist Stocking fun
0:07
Speaker 1: Ball and they are were a whist so yet it's supid,
0:11
Speaker 1: But what did you expect?
0:13
Speaker 2: It's a podcast called twenty five Whistles te oh blow it?
0:20
Speaker 1: Okay, So Week one is going to be Patriots and Seahawks.
0:23
Speaker 1: That's fun. Oh. Kevin's a massive Patriots fan, so it's
0:30
Speaker 1: fun for us. I think if I'm a Patriots fan,
0:32
Speaker 1: I don't want that because you're gonna get drummed.
0:35
Speaker 2: You think so, I would think so.
0:37
Speaker 1: I guess the benefit is it's Week one and everybody's
0:39
Speaker 1: a little off kilter week one. But the Seahawks are
0:42
Speaker 1: just such a better team the Patriots. Not that they
0:45
Speaker 1: weren't a good team, but there were some things that
0:46
Speaker 1: really fell their way to get to the Super Bowl,
0:48
Speaker 1: including playing a court well the second string quarterback for Denver.
0:53
Speaker 2: Yeah, and off field drama. Yeah.
0:55
Speaker 1: The variable that is not going to die. It's not
0:59
Speaker 1: going to die. So are you excited about that?
1:03
Speaker 3: Yeah? I am excited because that means that if you're
1:04
Speaker 3: playing Week one, first game primetime, it means your team
1:08
Speaker 3: is relevant and you are good.
1:09
Speaker 1: It means your team was relevant last year for sure,
1:12
Speaker 1: because a lot of times it is the Super Bowl repeat, right,
1:16
Speaker 1: I don't know, a lot of times it's either the
1:19
Speaker 1: super Bowl repeat or like one of the championship. So
1:22
Speaker 1: that's fine. I just kind of felt bad for Kevin.
1:23
Speaker 1: He's excited about it.
1:25
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm ready because I feel like it's like a
1:28
Speaker 3: revenge game and we have a good shot to your
1:31
Speaker 3: point week one. You never know what's gonna happen in
1:32
Speaker 3: Week one, and they have a new team. We have
1:34
Speaker 3: a new team, and I think the Patriots are gonna
1:37
Speaker 3: play pissed off this year. I know that the schedule
1:39
Speaker 3: is gonna be a lot harder, but man, I'm ready.
1:42
Speaker 4: Hold on, it's a revenge game from the Super Bowl.
1:45
Speaker 4: Can there be a revenge game from the ultimate Game?
1:48
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, you lost, so you're gonna get revenge a
1:50
Speaker 2: different stage.
1:51
Speaker 5: Yeah.
1:52
Speaker 1: Well, I'm anxious to see if Rabel keeps his job.
1:56
Speaker 2: Yeah.
1:58
Speaker 1: The longer this lin, the more the chances are he
2:04
Speaker 1: does not remain the coach. I've never thought he wasn't
2:07
Speaker 1: going to be the coach. I would have said ninety
2:09
Speaker 1: nine percent chance he stays the coach. A week after
2:12
Speaker 1: the Russini stuff. Now I'm gonna say sixty eight percent
2:16
Speaker 1: chance he stays the coach.
2:17
Speaker 4: And what would it be just because it's such a
2:19
Speaker 4: distraction from the team.
2:20
Speaker 1: There's just new stuff that keeps coming up, and no
2:22
Speaker 1: owner wants a distraction. Luckily for him, he went to
2:24
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl last year. Yeah, I think had they
2:26
Speaker 1: fell out in the wildcar round, I don't think he'd
2:30
Speaker 1: have his job still, do you, Kevin?
2:32
Speaker 3: No, I don't think so either, especially if they miss
2:35
Speaker 3: the playoffs. It's too much, it really is. It just
2:38
Speaker 3: keeps coming and coming. So I pray I wake up
2:41
Speaker 3: every day and I pray that there's no more photos
2:43
Speaker 3: of being leaked today so he can keep his job
2:45
Speaker 3: and our team can be good.
2:46
Speaker 2: Did you see the picture of her kissing her husband?
2:49
Speaker 3: I did on Mother's Day?
2:51
Speaker 2: Oh recent picture.
2:52
Speaker 4: It was for sure set up, but it was taken
2:55
Speaker 4: by a bystander in public.
2:57
Speaker 2: It's an interesting person to take it.
2:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yes, yes, okay, bystander. But they kind of
3:05
Speaker 1: staged it to where they knew they were being looked at,
3:07
Speaker 1: Like you could see the wedding ring on. He was
3:09
Speaker 1: kissing her on the mouth. His hat was backwards so
3:11
Speaker 1: he could see his face.
3:13
Speaker 3: She had a kid, in her hands.
3:15
Speaker 2: Oh I didn't remember that part.
3:16
Speaker 3: Yeah, she had one kid. She was holding one kid.
3:19
Speaker 2: So yeah, I hope he gets to keep his job.
3:22
Speaker 1: I hope they were Sini family stays together, bounce and
3:26
Speaker 1: is stronger from it. Yes, I hope the story goes away. Yeah,
3:30
Speaker 1: there was a time when I was entertained by it.
3:32
Speaker 1: Now I feel bad for them. Yeah, man, I'm with
3:34
Speaker 1: you now. It's like who we're real life. It was
3:37
Speaker 1: real life to begin with. But for that kind of stuff,
3:40
Speaker 1: I like to see a glimpse of it and then
3:42
Speaker 1: go on and fix it. I think the two reasons
3:44
Speaker 1: that it continues to exist are. Number one, they obviously
3:49
Speaker 1: lied about it at the beginning, because they released that
3:52
Speaker 1: statement and they were like, no girls trip driving up.
3:56
Speaker 2: We just happened to see each other, two old friends.
3:59
Speaker 1: At this point, we can all agree that's a blatant lie, right,
4:02
Speaker 1: That's a lie. And so when you lie, what it
4:05
Speaker 1: does is it encourages people to prove you're lying. So
4:07
Speaker 1: the story continues. It's just festering, right, So that's one
4:12
Speaker 1: reason that it is still existing. And the second is
4:18
Speaker 1: that TMZ didn't break it, and so now TMZ wants
4:20
Speaker 1: to prove that they still have their chops because I
4:22
Speaker 1: believe the New York.
4:22
Speaker 2: Post broke the story. Oh I didn't realize that.
4:24
Speaker 1: And now it's TMZ that continues it because they weren't
4:28
Speaker 1: the breaker of the story, so they want to continue
4:29
Speaker 1: to prove Okay, we didn't break it, but no, guys,
4:32
Speaker 1: but we're still good at this.
4:34
Speaker 2: I think that's been a part of it too. Kevin,
4:35
Speaker 2: your thoughts on.
4:36
Speaker 3: That, Yeah, that's a good point. I haven't really thought
4:38
Speaker 3: about that, actually, because I know that New York Posts
4:40
Speaker 3: did break it, and now everything that is trickled after
4:44
Speaker 3: has been TMZ for the most part, I believe. So
4:46
Speaker 3: I haven't even thought about that. And they are ruthless.
4:50
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they're embarrassed because they weren't the ones to
4:52
Speaker 1: break the story. I think they actually passed on the
4:55
Speaker 1: pictures because whomever was shopping them was a low number
4:58
Speaker 1: they were shopping them for, I believe if I read correctly,
5:01
Speaker 1: and I may not have, but I think I did.
5:03
Speaker 1: I think they passed on the pictures and it ended
5:05
Speaker 1: up being this massive story and they're like, oh, we
5:07
Speaker 1: look like fools, because that's that's our beat, just gossip, cheating, celebrities,
5:14
Speaker 1: and we're not the people owning it.
5:16
Speaker 2: So what else is making this story last?
5:18
Speaker 1: Like?
5:18
Speaker 4: Is it the fact too that this has been going
5:20
Speaker 4: on for so long that we're finding out that man,
5:22
Speaker 4: they've been at this forever.
5:24
Speaker 1: If they just came out immediately they were like, oh, yep,
5:28
Speaker 1: we got caught.
5:29
Speaker 2: That sucks, I'll do better.
5:30
Speaker 1: This story doesn't go past that, Yeah, except in the
5:33
Speaker 1: NFL circle.
5:35
Speaker 2: That's the only place that exists.
5:36
Speaker 1: But it doesn't exist like this because it's not really
5:38
Speaker 1: a pop culture story.
5:39
Speaker 2: You got an.
5:40
Speaker 1: NFL coach that's never been in the popular culture news,
5:45
Speaker 1: and you got someone that's even less famous than him
5:47
Speaker 1: that's only known in the NFL circle. So none of
5:49
Speaker 1: that should have broke and crossed over. And so the
5:55
Speaker 1: reason it did is because they got caught lying about it.
5:58
Speaker 2: Yep. So yeah, it's a bizarre story. I'd like for
6:02
Speaker 2: it to go away.
6:02
Speaker 1: I feel bad now I've been reporting on it way way,
6:04
Speaker 1: way less because I do feel bad for them, But
6:07
Speaker 1: I now the football season is starting.
6:09
Speaker 2: You don't think he's gonna get that everywhere he goes. Yeah, signs,
6:12
Speaker 2: it's gonna be everywhere. Yeah, brutal people yelling at.
6:16
Speaker 1: Him anyway, congrats on week one Kevin. Hey, thanks do
6:19
Speaker 1: you guys, And this is a real question, it's not
6:21
Speaker 1: do you want to do you plan to go to
6:23
Speaker 1: any games this year?
6:25
Speaker 2: Man? I hadn't planned on it at all.
6:28
Speaker 4: However, when the schedule came out and this just happened
6:31
Speaker 4: to be a thing because my son, it turns thirteen
6:34
Speaker 4: in September, and all my boys when they turned thirteen,
6:37
Speaker 4: we told him, like, pick one place in the United
6:39
Speaker 4: States to go that you want to visit, and we will.
6:42
Speaker 2: Take you there.
6:42
Speaker 4: It's kind of like your thirteen year old present, you know,
6:45
Speaker 4: your whatever you're growing up, go see the world. So
6:49
Speaker 4: my son had already picked New York City as the
6:52
Speaker 4: place he wants to go when he turns thirteen.
6:53
Speaker 2: That's in September.
6:55
Speaker 1: The schedule comes out and the Cowboys are playing the
6:57
Speaker 1: Giants in New York City, and now he is like, Dad,
7:01
Speaker 1: do you think we can do this?
7:03
Speaker 2: That would be cool for you too.
7:05
Speaker 4: Would be great. However, is it dangerous in there for
7:10
Speaker 4: visiting teams? No, like I would never go see him
7:13
Speaker 4: in Philly, like I would never.
7:14
Speaker 2: Go see you.
7:14
Speaker 1: I can even do that is if you're not fighting anybody.
7:17
Speaker 1: It's not gonna be dangerous. The only place I would
7:19
Speaker 1: ever worry of any stadium of any team period in
7:23
Speaker 1: all United States sports, and I wouldn't even worry because
7:26
Speaker 1: I would go. But the only place that I would
7:28
Speaker 1: worry if I were wearing opposing gear, that anything bad
7:32
Speaker 1: could happen to me is blank. And it's not Philly. Huh,
7:36
Speaker 1: where do you think it is, Mike Tennessee. No sc
7:41
Speaker 1: fans are awesome. Generally speaking, there's some rotten batches. There's
7:44
Speaker 1: rotten batches everywhere, and usually it's drunkenness.
7:47
Speaker 2: But not NFL. I'm just any pro sports team.
7:51
Speaker 1: I was thinking, like the Raiders man in Oakland, that
7:52
Speaker 1: would have been bad for sure. No, they're awesome too.
7:55
Speaker 1: They're just passionate. If you don't try to like fight
7:57
Speaker 1: somebody or drunk. Nobody really messes with folks.
7:59
Speaker 4: Okay, something in college, now, where would it be dangerous?
8:06
Speaker 2: I don't know.
8:08
Speaker 1: It's not college. I don't feel like no colleges are awesome.
8:12
Speaker 1: I've been to some situations. Texas.
8:13
Speaker 2: They were really rude to me, but they were really.
8:15
Speaker 1: Drunk and we were winning like all, and I was
8:17
Speaker 1: seated in a weird place like, there are a lot
8:21
Speaker 1: of factors that went that went down for that to happen,
8:24
Speaker 1: but it's rare.
8:26
Speaker 2: But we're the only place I would worry. So, Kevin,
8:29
Speaker 2: you want to take.
8:30
Speaker 1: A shot, Yeah, Dodger stated, that's exactly it, Dodgers. If
8:34
Speaker 1: I were rooting for the opposing team and I had
8:37
Speaker 1: on gear, let's just say I have San Fransco Giants
8:40
Speaker 1: gear on and I'm walking out, that's the only place
8:42
Speaker 1: I would be like, hmm, I should just kind of
8:44
Speaker 1: look around. Really, that's it. Wow, I can get all
8:48
Speaker 1: the pro sports, but have you been to a game?
8:51
Speaker 2: Never been?
8:51
Speaker 4: But and when I watch on TV, I guess I
8:53
Speaker 4: really don't see a lot of visiting jerseys.
8:56
Speaker 6: No.
8:56
Speaker 1: I think it's just what you hear about afterward in
8:57
Speaker 1: like the parking lots, because a lot of those fights
9:00
Speaker 1: tend to be after the games in the parking lots.
9:02
Speaker 1: And it also is probably drunk people. It's probably people
9:04
Speaker 1: that are mouthed and they won. The Dodgers lost. You
9:06
Speaker 1: got fair, But that's the only place I've concerned.
9:10
Speaker 2: I don't know.
9:10
Speaker 4: Maybe my Instagram algorithm is all on fights and I'm
9:14
Speaker 4: getting a lot of fights at sports places. People drink
9:17
Speaker 4: and they don't care kids are around. So I'm like, man,
9:19
Speaker 4: are they gonna beat me up in front of my
9:20
Speaker 4: kid if I go to a Giants game?
9:22
Speaker 1: But they're not if you don't get mouthy back, because
9:24
Speaker 1: that would be the worst. My dad be like, my
9:26
Speaker 1: dad got his butt kicked.
9:28
Speaker 2: Kevin. You love in South of California. Does the Dodgers
9:30
Speaker 2: thing make sense to you? Yeah?
9:31
Speaker 3: Absolutely. I actually did go to a twenty eighteen World
9:34
Speaker 3: Series game when they're playing the Red Sox. I think
9:36
Speaker 3: it's Game four, I believe, and the Red Sox came
9:38
Speaker 3: back and won that game. Dodgers fans were pissed, and
9:42
Speaker 3: I knew, my dad knew, and our friend knew, Like,
9:45
Speaker 3: don't say anything while walking out, And then there was
9:48
Speaker 3: my drunk brother just sitting there just screaming, oh yeah
9:51
Speaker 3: about those Red Sox. And we had to tell them
9:52
Speaker 3: so many times, you'd shut up, we're gonna get killed.
9:55
Speaker 2: Did you get beat up?
9:56
Speaker 3: No, we didn't. But there is definitely some people that
9:58
Speaker 3: you could tell the look in their eye they wanted to.
10:01
Speaker 2: It's alcohol that does it?
10:03
Speaker 1: Yeah?
10:03
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
10:03
Speaker 1: And then if you're already generally living on edge, and
10:07
Speaker 1: then it's the alcohol, and then it's you're obnoxious. Why
10:10
Speaker 1: you're drunk, because you're just not gonna get beat up
10:13
Speaker 1: for wearing another team's uniform walking out of any stadium.
10:16
Speaker 3: You're just not.
10:18
Speaker 2: No one's that mad. It just picks up.
10:19
Speaker 1: I should say that that there have been situations where
10:21
Speaker 1: people have walked up and punched.
10:22
Speaker 2: People when the guy got like that out of nowhere.
10:25
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, but that's rare. That's just very
10:27
Speaker 1: really drunk.
10:28
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that was a Philly fan, and that Philly
10:30
Speaker 4: is yeah, as an Eagles fan.
10:34
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know that that's true. I
10:35
Speaker 2: think it was.
10:36
Speaker 1: Oh, I don't know. I don't know a specific instance.
10:38
Speaker 1: I've just heard of those type stories where people just
10:40
Speaker 1: punch chewed I remember, and I think he got arrested
10:42
Speaker 1: and everything. It was a bad deal.
10:43
Speaker 4: I think you just fight an anti Philly right now
10:45
Speaker 4: more than any I'll definitely look at the prices. I mean,
10:49
Speaker 4: season opener in New York.
10:52
Speaker 2: Against the Cowboys.
10:53
Speaker 4: I feel like that's a pricey ticket, but I'm gonna
10:56
Speaker 4: look into it because that would be amazing for both
10:58
Speaker 4: of us.
10:59
Speaker 1: Something that the UFL is doing, which I like, is
11:02
Speaker 1: that they are allowing refs to be interviewed about questionable
11:05
Speaker 1: calls after games.
11:06
Speaker 2: That's cool. I love that.
11:07
Speaker 1: Yeah, and remember the kickoff rule was first like an
11:12
Speaker 1: XFL rule, and they can use these leagues to test
11:16
Speaker 1: out certain things see how they do, possibly move them up.
11:18
Speaker 1: It's basically the Talcobill test kitchen. Yes, yes, so the UFL,
11:24
Speaker 1: which is pretty cool. They are even during games, sideline
11:28
Speaker 1: reporters can approach the officiating crew and interview them in
11:31
Speaker 1: certain spots of the game, and then referees can explain
11:35
Speaker 1: what actually happened with calls that appear to be controversial.
11:39
Speaker 1: It also gives fans a peak behind the curtain. It
11:41
Speaker 1: gives perspective on the decision making, and then even afterward
11:45
Speaker 1: they can answer questions about it, which I think is
11:48
Speaker 1: great and I think in the age of betting, I
11:49
Speaker 1: think this needs to happen. Yes, pre betting referees are
11:54
Speaker 1: kind of unicorns. Who knows if they're real or not.
11:56
Speaker 1: They're making decisions, they disappear. We don't even know what
11:58
Speaker 1: they look like in real life. Now with being I
12:00
Speaker 1: think there needs to be explanations even on wrong calls.
12:04
Speaker 2: It's like what they saw on why.
12:06
Speaker 1: Otherwise people will go, oh, the gambling is affecting it
12:11
Speaker 1: and it's rigged, because I don't think it is. I
12:15
Speaker 1: think there are certain players that will do things, and
12:17
Speaker 1: we've seen those players get arrested. Yes, like if it's
12:21
Speaker 1: under two rebounds and somebody puts a million dollars on
12:24
Speaker 1: under two rebounds for Terry Rogier, Yeah that's and I'm
12:28
Speaker 1: just making up a story here. Yeah that's screams fish.
12:32
Speaker 1: So I do like them, that's really cool.
12:34
Speaker 4: But as fans man, we have to just take that
12:38
Speaker 4: for what it is, like accept it. If a ref
12:41
Speaker 4: says like, yeah, he didn't catch the ball, like he
12:43
Speaker 4: didn't have his feet in whatever, then we can no
12:46
Speaker 4: longer argue, nah it was a catch, Like nah, no,
12:48
Speaker 4: we lost it because that call. If he says what
12:51
Speaker 4: it is and everyone agrees, like, we have to just
12:53
Speaker 4: take it for what it is. You think fans are
12:54
Speaker 4: just going to take it for what it is, But
12:56
Speaker 4: that's no chance we should. There's no chance.
12:59
Speaker 1: The other thing was I wanted to acknowledge was Kevin's
13:02
Speaker 1: twins are a year old.
13:04
Speaker 2: Wow, that's wild.
13:06
Speaker 3: Yeah, crazy guys, time fly, you're already feeling it. I'm sure, man,
13:11
Speaker 3: it's crazy.
13:12
Speaker 1: I saw your Instagram and at first it was Kevin
13:14
Speaker 1: talking about his babies, and I was like, please, don't
13:16
Speaker 1: be one of these influencer type things. Yeah, I know,
13:19
Speaker 1: and I'm all for it, like do your thing. But
13:22
Speaker 1: a bit I was like, oh this kind of firstimes
13:24
Speaker 1: I kind of get it's a little crunchy, but it's
13:26
Speaker 1: got to be crunchy, right, do it till it works
13:29
Speaker 1: part of it. But I was like, oh no. And
13:31
Speaker 1: then he's like they're one. I was like, oh, that's awesome.
13:34
Speaker 1: He's not trying to do bottle station in or whatever
13:36
Speaker 1: you're doing, but drink station Yeah yeah, yah, yeah, yeah,
13:39
Speaker 1: yeah yeah yeah.
13:40
Speaker 2: Congratulations man, that's really cool.
13:42
Speaker 3: Thank you.
13:42
Speaker 5: Yeah.
13:42
Speaker 3: It's crazy to think about. It's and I was talking
13:45
Speaker 3: to my wife about it, and it's like they're no
13:48
Speaker 3: longer you know, eight months old, eight and a half
13:50
Speaker 3: months old. Now, it's like they're a year old. So
13:52
Speaker 3: you put the year on it, which is just wild
13:55
Speaker 3: to wrap our head around because it seemed like we
13:57
Speaker 3: were never ever going to get there and we're here.
14:00
Speaker 3: It's gonna take a while to get used to, but
14:02
Speaker 3: it's just crazy to think about.
14:03
Speaker 4: Watch out though, because some parents still do the Oh yeah,
14:06
Speaker 4: my son's fourteen months old.
14:07
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, what is that? Twelve plus two?
14:08
Speaker 6: Oh?
14:08
Speaker 2: Okay, you have trouble.
14:10
Speaker 1: You have trouble with math, because, like he's right, I
14:13
Speaker 1: love it when you get to that year point because yeah,
14:15
Speaker 1: my kids won, my kids two when they you get
14:17
Speaker 1: rid of those months, dude, it gets so complicated. Do
14:20
Speaker 1: you have trouble with military time? I don't even try
14:22
Speaker 1: military time.
14:23
Speaker 2: That that tricks. Do you have anything in military time?
14:26
Speaker 1: No? But if somebody says the time, I know exactly
14:28
Speaker 1: what time it is. Okay, if it's like sixteen twenty,
14:30
Speaker 1: what's that?
14:31
Speaker 4: Give me a second, twelve, thirteen fifty six. That's four
14:35
Speaker 4: o'clock four twenty four to twenty, is that right?
14:39
Speaker 2: Yeah?
14:39
Speaker 1: Okay, you get there. Yeah, I have to count it out,
14:41
Speaker 1: like nineteen seventeen.
14:42
Speaker 4: Oh boy, sixteen was four sotour?
14:48
Speaker 2: Uh seven? Which was the second?
14:53
Speaker 1: Yeah?
14:53
Speaker 2: Yeah, seventeen seven, yeah, seven seventeen.
14:55
Speaker 1: The easy way to do it is twelve, right, Yeah,
14:59
Speaker 1: that's the clock, and then anything plus twelve just starts
15:02
Speaker 1: over at one. Explain that thirteen hundred hours one o'clock, yeah,
15:06
Speaker 1: one o'clock. Yeah, fourteen two, fifteen three on down? Is
15:10
Speaker 1: that not how it goes in your head? I just
15:12
Speaker 1: have to count it out. I started twelve, but then
15:14
Speaker 1: if you give me a nineteen, I'm like, oh great,
15:18
Speaker 1: nineteen minus twelve is oh see.
15:20
Speaker 4: I'd rather go twenty four minus go to the twenty
15:24
Speaker 4: four and then making it more difficult.
15:25
Speaker 2: Really, I just subtract two from it.
15:27
Speaker 7: What do you mean if it's nineteen, you just say
15:30
Speaker 7: minus two at seventeen, So I'd just say seven, So
15:33
Speaker 7: you're doing minus twelve then yeah, hold on, he's here
15:36
Speaker 7: in my head though.
15:36
Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's fifteen. We all have a way that works.
15:39
Speaker 4: So it's fifteen minus two. So five minus two is three,
15:43
Speaker 4: so it's three o'clock.
15:44
Speaker 2: Yeah.
15:45
Speaker 1: If you don't so, you'd you'd really just be doing
15:47
Speaker 1: the two off the back number, not the whole thing.
15:49
Speaker 2: That's legit, Mike, I could do that.
15:52
Speaker 3: I've never heard that.
15:53
Speaker 1: So twenty one hundred hours is okay? Twenty one oh
15:56
Speaker 1: negative one?
15:57
Speaker 2: Okay, see what time is that? Is that eleven? No,
16:04
Speaker 2: it's not eleven.
16:05
Speaker 1: Twenty three would be eleven. Okay, gosh, it's so hard.
16:08
Speaker 1: And my dumb brother, he liked everything in his car,
16:11
Speaker 1: his house and clocks. Everything's military time. You're such an idiot.
16:16
Speaker 2: That's awesome, Kevin, congratulations, man, thank you, that's super cool.
16:19
Speaker 1: We just did not nine weeks this week, nine weeks
16:23
Speaker 1: while you're still in the weeks. It's crazy mm.
16:26
Speaker 2: Hmmm, because if you say two months in one week,
16:29
Speaker 2: that's too many words. Yes, it is minus two.
16:32
Speaker 1: Because I'm not that guy who's going to do the
16:34
Speaker 1: weeks in the months the whole time. But mostly it's
16:35
Speaker 1: like word efficiency. Yeah, so yeah, we were at nine weeks.
16:39
Speaker 2: Now you feel like time is flying.
16:40
Speaker 1: I feel like it is a snap of a fingers
16:42
Speaker 1: and gone. But there's an element of it that feels
16:45
Speaker 1: like every freaking day is twenty seven hours long. Yeah,
16:50
Speaker 1: it's just exhausting, and not like exhausting lifting heavy things,
16:55
Speaker 1: just constant attention. Like my brain's fried a lot because
16:57
Speaker 1: I used to get off work and take a minute eat,
17:01
Speaker 1: maybe do some other work, or if I was like
17:03
Speaker 1: super fried, thirty minutes, play a little PlayStation, give them
17:06
Speaker 1: mind right before I start back again, or go work out.
17:08
Speaker 1: Now it's like, as soon as I get off work,
17:10
Speaker 1: I might get to do nothing except go to baby.
17:13
Speaker 1: If Caitlin's not feeling well or and then it's his
17:15
Speaker 1: baby until bedtime and the days are one hundred years long.
17:19
Speaker 2: Yeah, feels like man.
17:21
Speaker 4: My son graduated kindergarten yesterday and they had balloons that
17:25
Speaker 4: said class of two thousand.
17:30
Speaker 1: Thirty eight crazy, And I was like, Oh my gosh,
17:33
Speaker 1: I'm going to be.
17:34
Speaker 2: So old when this dude graduates high school.
17:36
Speaker 1: That's what I feel like about picturing my daughter getting older,
17:39
Speaker 1: is that I'm going to be one hundred Yeah.
17:41
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm like, they're gonna have to put us in
17:43
Speaker 2: Walkers Zoo to go to this graduation.
17:50
Speaker 1: All right, let's welcome in Law Murray, NBA writer for
17:52
Speaker 1: the Athletic based in LA, one of the go two
17:55
Speaker 1: reporters when it comes to the Clippers and really anything
17:57
Speaker 1: NBA related. Been covering the NBA for years. Join the
18:00
Speaker 1: Athletic in twenty twenty one and go check out his riding.
18:03
Speaker 1: It's fantastic, especially now when it's all NBA. Go to
18:06
Speaker 1: the Athletic dot com. Law appreciate you coming in. I
18:09
Speaker 1: do want to go first to Lebron Is he a
18:12
Speaker 1: Laker next year? Does he play in the NBA at
18:14
Speaker 1: all next year?
18:15
Speaker 6: And good morning to you guys. I really think Lebron's
18:20
Speaker 6: going to be in the NBA, whether it's with the Lakers,
18:23
Speaker 6: that's what I'm most interested in. I think both sides
18:26
Speaker 6: would be interested in certain conditions.
18:29
Speaker 5: I think that's what the posturing is here.
18:32
Speaker 6: I think the Lakers don't want to pay Lebron like
18:36
Speaker 6: a MAX player at the age that he's at, the
18:38
Speaker 6: phase vis career that he's at, given the shortcomings that
18:42
Speaker 6: they have.
18:43
Speaker 5: You have to keep in mind like.
18:45
Speaker 6: Since the bubble, they've only advanced in the playoffs twice
18:49
Speaker 6: in the last six postseasons, and they and both of
18:53
Speaker 6: those postseasons ended in sweeps and the conference finals in
18:56
Speaker 6: twenty twenty three and just now in the Conference semifinals
18:59
Speaker 6: in twenty twenty. So that's what the Lakers' perspective is.
19:03
Speaker 6: And for Lebron, he's still that dude. I mean, he
19:06
Speaker 6: might not be an MVP candidate, he might not be Luca,
19:11
Speaker 6: but that dude.
19:13
Speaker 5: Just deferred to Austin Reeves, you know what I'm saying.
19:15
Speaker 6: Like, he's he's a player who is still one of
19:20
Speaker 6: the better players in the NBA, certainly in All Star
19:23
Speaker 6: caliber talent, and he could be that to a number
19:27
Speaker 6: of teams in the NBA. I would dare say, all,
19:30
Speaker 6: but you know, we can be reasonable. So he's not
19:32
Speaker 6: going to consider every NBA team and he shouldn't, So
19:35
Speaker 6: I think that's that's the tricky part there. I think
19:39
Speaker 6: both sides in some aspects could use each other and
19:43
Speaker 6: maybe even need each other. But the Lakers aren't trying
19:46
Speaker 6: to pay the most Lebron, and Bron's not trying to
19:48
Speaker 6: pay for the play for the minimum.
19:50
Speaker 1: It seems to me that from very far out that
19:53
Speaker 1: Lebron has a decision to make. Does he want to
19:56
Speaker 1: try to win another championship or does he want to
19:59
Speaker 1: make a lot of money because both kind of can't
20:01
Speaker 1: happen because if he gets a max deal somewhere, he's
20:04
Speaker 1: going to be taking the lion's share of money, maybe
20:05
Speaker 1: him in one other guy, and that's probably not conducive
20:09
Speaker 1: to having a team that's gonna win a championship because
20:11
Speaker 1: he's not gonna be the number one guy, possibly number
20:13
Speaker 1: two guy. So would you say that that assessment is
20:16
Speaker 1: accurate that he has to decide between money and maybe
20:18
Speaker 1: having a shot to win another one.
20:19
Speaker 5: I think there's a happy medium.
20:21
Speaker 6: I mean, he's gonna get paid, and where the floor
20:26
Speaker 6: is for Lebron, I think is the question. Again, We're
20:29
Speaker 6: not talking about a dude just saying I'll take the
20:32
Speaker 6: minimum to play. You know, he's Lebron's never taken a
20:37
Speaker 6: pay cut, not to my recollection, and maybe that's the consideration.
20:42
Speaker 6: It's like how much if you look at Tom Brady
20:45
Speaker 6: and I know Lebron that buyers Tom Brady, and especially
20:49
Speaker 6: what Tom Brady was able to do, not just in
20:51
Speaker 6: his forties but in his post New England Patriots career,
20:55
Speaker 6: but playing quarterback in the NFL. It's like, yeah, I'm
20:58
Speaker 6: gonna make this up by just having the talent to
21:02
Speaker 6: play with and obviously being Tom Brady, there are options
21:07
Speaker 6: that you have. Does Lebron have that approach? And that
21:11
Speaker 6: is an adjustment That's something that you have to kind
21:13
Speaker 6: of really wrap your mind around. It's like, what are
21:16
Speaker 6: you playing for? How much are you playing for? What's
21:19
Speaker 6: going to be satisfying to you to where you can
21:22
Speaker 6: be happy enough to focus on trying to win that championship,
21:26
Speaker 6: like Lebron not going to the Sacramento Kings. Like that's
21:30
Speaker 6: what I meant earlier when I was like, look, every
21:33
Speaker 6: team could use him in some aspect, but it's not
21:35
Speaker 6: like you can cut like forty percent of the NBA
21:38
Speaker 6: out of that conversation. And so that's I think that's
21:42
Speaker 6: the biggest thing for Lebron is adjusting to what the
21:47
Speaker 6: adjustment is.
21:49
Speaker 1: It seemed to me like over the last couple of
21:51
Speaker 1: years the Lakers they didn't have a big man like
21:53
Speaker 1: DeAndre and he ain't it. We were able to see that,
21:56
Speaker 1: and so Lebron had to carry him through the first series. Obviously,
22:00
Speaker 1: Thunder they just suffocate you. No one really expected the
22:03
Speaker 1: Lakers to win the series. And it's forty one year old.
22:07
Speaker 1: Dude's still out there playing like real basketball, like Leber.
22:09
Speaker 1: Like you said, Lebron may not be a top five guy,
22:11
Speaker 1: but he's a top twenty five guys still at age
22:14
Speaker 1: forty one. But for the Lakers to get a big guy,
22:16
Speaker 1: they need money and they don't have money because they
22:18
Speaker 1: got three dudes now sucking up all the payroll, which
22:21
Speaker 1: are Luca, Austin Reeves and Lebron. So something's got a budge, right, right.
22:26
Speaker 6: It's not just that it's three dudes either, it's those
22:29
Speaker 6: three dudes. Like you saw what the Oklahoma City thunder
22:34
Speaker 6: did anytime Austin Reeves was in coverage, like it was
22:38
Speaker 6: fade on site. So you think that's going to be
22:43
Speaker 6: better with Luca Dungic like you have. The Lakers are
22:47
Speaker 6: setting themselves up to have their two most prominent shot
22:53
Speaker 6: creators be players that they need to protect in one way.
22:58
Speaker 5: Or the other.
22:58
Speaker 6: The reason the Lake and people are gonna talk about
23:01
Speaker 6: DeAndre Ayton and the centers, And I mean, look, DeAndre
23:04
Speaker 6: Ayton probably should opt out and see what options he
23:08
Speaker 6: has out there. You know, he's probably better than an
23:11
Speaker 6: eight million dollar player, but I don't think you find
23:14
Speaker 6: a lot of teams willing to trust him on a
23:16
Speaker 6: multi year contract that pays him, say thirty million, right, Like,
23:22
Speaker 6: if you really look at it, Ayton's not a bad
23:25
Speaker 6: run protector. He's not a special one. But if he's there,
23:27
Speaker 6: he's okay. Jackson Hayes was decent in a backup role
23:33
Speaker 6: when the Lakers had issues offensively, it was because one
23:36
Speaker 6: of those dudes is away from the basket and your
23:38
Speaker 6: low man is someone like Austin Reeves or Luka Dancic, Like,
23:43
Speaker 6: you're gonna make a lot of layup shift. That's your
23:45
Speaker 6: last line of defense in a help or a rotation situation.
23:50
Speaker 6: And so that's that's the question. It's like, yeah, Lebron
23:54
Speaker 6: can't make a lot given the pay bump that Austin
23:57
Speaker 6: Reeves is about to get, because you have to fill
24:01
Speaker 6: out your roster because you need depth. And it's not
24:03
Speaker 6: just a defense. The Lakers were probably a worse offense
24:08
Speaker 6: than they should have been given to some other parts
24:12
Speaker 6: because of a depth issue. There was a there's a
24:15
Speaker 6: lack of skill when one of Lebron or Luca or
24:18
Speaker 6: Austin were out. And guess what, there were a lot
24:21
Speaker 6: of games where at least one of those dudes weren't available.
24:24
Speaker 6: That's why it took until March for those dudes to click.
24:27
Speaker 6: And that's why I took Lebron sacrificing and saying, Austin,
24:30
Speaker 6: you do your thing as the second guy and I'll
24:33
Speaker 6: fall back for it to actually, you know, Marin Nate,
24:38
Speaker 6: there's a lot to be considered, and Lebron's contract is
24:41
Speaker 6: the big swing factor.
24:43
Speaker 1: If Lebron doesn't stay with the Lakers, I don't know
24:46
Speaker 1: to meet Cleveland Golden State, Like where do you think
24:49
Speaker 1: Lebron would end up or want to play?
24:51
Speaker 5: I don't know if he'd want to play.
24:53
Speaker 6: And be honest with you, I got like I'm just
24:56
Speaker 6: being real, Like I feel like a lot of people
24:58
Speaker 6: are just talking Lebron and I'm part of that now,
25:01
Speaker 6: you know, Like I know that going to Cleveland for
25:06
Speaker 6: him would serve a whole lot more people that aren't
25:09
Speaker 6: named Lebron James. And I think you got to really
25:13
Speaker 6: look at that. It's like every I think everyone looks
25:15
Speaker 6: at Lebron and looks at the stories that they want
25:18
Speaker 6: to tell. And you know, they did the same thing
25:20
Speaker 6: with JJ Reddick. It's like JJ Reddick got mad Steve
25:23
Speaker 6: Kerb pat Riley comps, you know, which has said more
25:28
Speaker 6: about the people wanting to write those stories than it
25:30
Speaker 6: did about JJ Reddick, you know. And I thought and
25:33
Speaker 6: still think JJ Reddick did really well as head coach
25:38
Speaker 6: this year. He was better even if the results were
25:41
Speaker 6: pretty similar to the year before. And I think JJ
25:45
Speaker 6: would tell you that as well. So I don't want
25:48
Speaker 6: to see Lebron.
25:49
Speaker 5: James play for the Golden State Warriors. I'll tell you
25:51
Speaker 5: that right now.
25:52
Speaker 6: I don't know if Lebron wants that, Like people want
25:56
Speaker 6: that because people want to cover the Golden State Warriors,
25:59
Speaker 6: a team that, if you really zoom out, aren't good
26:02
Speaker 6: enough to be given this level of coverage and haven't
26:04
Speaker 6: been for years. So like, I think it's between the
26:10
Speaker 6: Lakers and the Cavs, to be honest with you, and
26:12
Speaker 6: the Cleton Cavaliers thing.
26:14
Speaker 5: It's like it would be easy.
26:17
Speaker 6: But Lebron would have to get there mentally and emotionally
26:20
Speaker 6: to do it, whereas with the Lakers, you don't have
26:23
Speaker 6: to make those same adjustments. It's just a matter of
26:25
Speaker 6: how much do you want to sacrifice to play with
26:27
Speaker 6: these dudes again? And you know what, the chemistry wasn't
26:30
Speaker 6: that bad. It's just going to be a business thing.
26:33
Speaker 6: Will they handle the business in a way that doesn't
26:35
Speaker 6: calls Lebron James to be like, Okay, I gotta not
26:38
Speaker 6: play for these dudes next year.
26:40
Speaker 2: How pumped up are the clips they got that five pick?
26:43
Speaker 6: They're very excited, I mean very excited, and they anticipated
26:49
Speaker 6: the chance of excitement it that's what you do when
26:52
Speaker 6: you make a trade of the magnitude that they made
26:55
Speaker 6: in February. It's like, look, there's a slightly less than
26:59
Speaker 6: fifty to fifty chance that that's going to come up.
27:01
Speaker 5: Roses for them.
27:03
Speaker 6: I was sitting there and I'll tell you I emotionally
27:06
Speaker 6: was not invested in the lottery like that, right, you know.
27:09
Speaker 6: And I say emostly because naturally I've covered the team
27:13
Speaker 6: for a long time. I think a lot of fans
27:16
Speaker 6: think that if you cover a team, it's because you
27:18
Speaker 6: wore Darius Miles jersey or something like that. And anyone
27:21
Speaker 6: who knows me knows that's not the case. I think
27:23
Speaker 6: people just be projecting. But I've been around those dudes.
27:26
Speaker 6: I've got relationships with that organization, with the players, with
27:29
Speaker 6: the coaches. I have written critically about them, and they've
27:35
Speaker 6: let me know in certain terms how they felt about
27:39
Speaker 6: what I got to say. Sometimes it's agreement. Sometimes they
27:43
Speaker 6: need to get over themselves.
27:44
Speaker 5: It is what it is.
27:45
Speaker 2: Like.
27:45
Speaker 6: I don't take it personal, but to see that envelope
27:49
Speaker 6: with the Clippers on it, it put a reaction to
27:53
Speaker 6: me that I've never had before because I've you know,
27:55
Speaker 6: I'm from Philly. I moved to LA in twenty ten
27:58
Speaker 6: when Alfredukaminu was there ten pick over Paul George, you know,
28:03
Speaker 6: and like they've not had a top five pick since
28:06
Speaker 6: Blake Griffin in two thousand and nine. Like the Clippers,
28:09
Speaker 6: say what you want about their shortcomings and their lack
28:12
Speaker 6: of postseason success, they have a winning record fifteen years
28:16
Speaker 6: in a row. They have emptied out their asset chests
28:19
Speaker 6: to get a team that only advanced to the conference
28:22
Speaker 6: finals once and that was with Kawhi Leonard recovering from
28:25
Speaker 6: a acl tair that the team didn't want to tell
28:27
Speaker 6: us about when it happened.
28:29
Speaker 5: So this is a huge moment for them.
28:31
Speaker 6: It's a big swing point and they are excited, but
28:34
Speaker 6: that also means they have a lot of work to
28:35
Speaker 6: do because if they didn't get that pick, then it
28:37
Speaker 6: would have been like, you know, business as usual, you know,
28:40
Speaker 6: being picking in the first round because the Oklahoma City
28:44
Speaker 6: come to have their lottery pick. But now it's like,
28:48
Speaker 6: you can be excited, but you got to nail this
28:49
Speaker 6: pick or you got to nail the decision that comes
28:51
Speaker 6: with this pick. And looking at some of these dudes,
28:55
Speaker 6: it's a lot that they're going to have to pick
28:58
Speaker 6: between you.
28:58
Speaker 5: As far as prison.
28:59
Speaker 1: Cons Yeah, probably the best freshman class in college basketball
29:03
Speaker 1: that I've ever seen in my life, at least based
29:05
Speaker 1: on all the criteria they use to rank these guys.
29:08
Speaker 1: Right there, and they've tiered them out the top four,
29:11
Speaker 1: but even that second tier of like five through nine,
29:13
Speaker 1: they would have been top three picks the last three
29:16
Speaker 1: years in the draft. So I feel like you're five six, seven, eight,
29:19
Speaker 1: like you still have a hard decision to make because
29:21
Speaker 1: those are actually really good franchise type ball players.
29:24
Speaker 6: Well they're really good players, but I see floor like
29:29
Speaker 6: I see skinny dudes. I see dudes with a lack
29:33
Speaker 6: of explosion. I see dudes with short arms, bad defense,
29:38
Speaker 6: all kinds of things that you need to even the
29:42
Speaker 6: better prospects. And there are guys that I like, and
29:44
Speaker 6: there are traits that I like, But then you got
29:47
Speaker 6: to look at your own team, like your two best players.
29:51
Speaker 6: One is thirty four years old on their league investigation
29:54
Speaker 6: and has a not great track record of durability and availability,
30:00
Speaker 6: you know, one of the best in the league. But
30:01
Speaker 6: still that's what we're looking at. How do you support
30:04
Speaker 6: that player. He's not the biggest player in Kawhi Leonard
30:08
Speaker 6: for those who thought I could possibly be talking about
30:10
Speaker 6: anybody else. And then there's Darius Garland, a guy you
30:13
Speaker 6: traded for, and the biggest thing with Darius besides the durability, availability, issues,
30:18
Speaker 6: which I'd tell you if Darius Garland was more durable,
30:23
Speaker 6: if you didn't have as many concerns there, he'd probably
30:25
Speaker 6: still be in Cleveland.
30:27
Speaker 5: Right.
30:28
Speaker 6: A lot of the dudes that you could say make
30:31
Speaker 6: up the bulk of the depth in this draft are
30:35
Speaker 6: smaller guards. Like who do you draft that fits in
30:40
Speaker 6: the short term, knowing that the draft is a long
30:43
Speaker 6: term endeavor. That is the biggest question facing the Clippers, Like,
30:48
Speaker 6: there are guys in this draft that can make a real.
30:51
Speaker 5: Difference down the line.
30:53
Speaker 6: What does that mean for the guys that you have
30:56
Speaker 6: today on your roster?
30:58
Speaker 2: How do you feel about Weimby is on schedule ahead
31:01
Speaker 2: of it?
31:02
Speaker 5: I would say a little bit ahead of it.
31:04
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean Wenby hasn't even gotten the rookie scale
31:09
Speaker 6: extension yet that's coming, you know after the season, Like
31:15
Speaker 6: this is his first playoff run and it's not a
31:19
Speaker 6: playoff run where they don't have expectations and they're I mean,
31:24
Speaker 6: these dudes could win a championship. They played like that
31:26
Speaker 6: all regular season. They beat the best teams regularly all
31:30
Speaker 6: regular season, and your only question was it just a
31:34
Speaker 6: matter of the quote unquote experience? And I love this
31:38
Speaker 6: series with the Minnesota Timberwolves, because Minnesota Timberwolves have made
31:41
Speaker 6: a living in the last two years of beating teams
31:44
Speaker 6: that people didn't trust him to beat, both because of
31:47
Speaker 6: the makeup of their current team as well as the
31:49
Speaker 6: way we talk about the Timberwolves. The Timberwolves are obviously
31:52
Speaker 6: a team that win thirteen years by a playoff run.
31:57
Speaker 5: They squandered most of Kevin Garnett's career.
32:00
Speaker 6: These aren't those Simmerwolves, like the Timberwolves are going to
32:04
Speaker 6: They know who they are at this time of the year.
32:06
Speaker 6: And I'm so sad for the Timberolves because obviously physically
32:09
Speaker 6: they're not the best version of themselves. But you know what,
32:11
Speaker 6: a lot of teams are dealing with that. And the Timberwolves,
32:14
Speaker 6: I remember them being down three to two in the
32:17
Speaker 6: conference in my finals and beating the defending.
32:20
Speaker 5: Champs that was just two years ago.
32:22
Speaker 6: That's going to be the test, and Victor web Benyama
32:25
Speaker 6: and the San Antonio Spurs closed out a team that
32:28
Speaker 6: is not dead until they're dead. But I was I
32:32
Speaker 6: was talking about this recently. I do not want to
32:36
Speaker 6: get used to taking Victor wen Benyama for granted. Like
32:41
Speaker 6: we're seeing things that you have to really do some yoga,
32:46
Speaker 6: bigroom stretching to compare him to contemporaries, compare him to
32:53
Speaker 6: dudes from previous generations playing a game that ain't being
32:57
Speaker 6: played today. So yeah, I would say he's ahead even
33:02
Speaker 6: with everything that has come with the expectations regarding Victor
33:06
Speaker 6: winm Binyama and the takeover that we all expected when
33:09
Speaker 6: he was drafted.
33:11
Speaker 1: What do you think the skill set is he can
33:13
Speaker 1: improve on in the offseason as he goes from this
33:15
Speaker 1: season and next.
33:16
Speaker 6: That's the thing I'm most excited about, because as great
33:20
Speaker 6: as he is now being an MVP finalist, there are
33:23
Speaker 6: things that you know he can be better at. Like
33:28
Speaker 6: he's a good shooter, I wouldn't consider him a great shooter, right,
33:31
Speaker 6: Like this is a dude who I mean? The Timberls
33:34
Speaker 6: are in this series still because Victor missed all eight
33:38
Speaker 6: three pointers that.
33:39
Speaker 5: He took, which is two problems.
33:41
Speaker 6: That's a shot selection thing, Like I'm gracious that a
33:45
Speaker 6: guy with that level of not just size but the
33:49
Speaker 6: skill to put the ball on the floor and get
33:51
Speaker 6: to his spots would choose to have half of his
33:55
Speaker 6: shot attempts come twenty three feet from the basket. So
34:00
Speaker 6: you know, Victor is going to get better with that
34:03
Speaker 6: part of it. That's two things, just a shooting skill
34:07
Speaker 6: as well as the shot selection, the ability to put
34:12
Speaker 6: the level of pressure offensively on a defense. And I
34:18
Speaker 6: think he can still be a better playmaker. I think
34:20
Speaker 6: he's the turnovers went down significantly, and the big part
34:23
Speaker 6: of that is the ball is in the hands of
34:26
Speaker 6: so many of those guards, you know.
34:28
Speaker 5: And they all do different things.
34:29
Speaker 6: I was not seeing how those guards were all going
34:33
Speaker 6: to find their role and all play well. But between
34:37
Speaker 6: the Aaron Fox, who you notice how he closes really well,
34:42
Speaker 6: and Dylan Harper he comes in and he gives them
34:45
Speaker 6: that different dynamic off the bench, and Stefan Castle, he
34:49
Speaker 6: actually has been the guy to soak up more of
34:52
Speaker 6: the ball handling and that has Fox taken a real
34:56
Speaker 6: back seat.
34:57
Speaker 5: Wenby.
34:57
Speaker 6: Again, he doesn't have the ball in his hands as much,
35:01
Speaker 6: but I still think Wemby can still be a better
35:03
Speaker 6: playmaker or better decision maker. I mean a lot of
35:05
Speaker 6: it is just what it comes down to how he
35:08
Speaker 6: is Jew's and what he gets out of himself offensively,
35:13
Speaker 6: Like this is a guy who could average thirty. This
35:16
Speaker 6: is a guy who could average Morsis. This is a
35:18
Speaker 6: guy who could be even cleaner with his shots, and
35:23
Speaker 6: he's got his whole career to do all that.
35:26
Speaker 1: Law, I really appreciate the time and the insight. And
35:28
Speaker 1: you guys, not only can you read him on the
35:29
Speaker 1: athletic we can follow him at law Murray the U.
35:32
Speaker 1: But appreciate it. Really love your stuff now, especially we're
35:35
Speaker 1: in the weeds of it. So thanks for taking some
35:36
Speaker 1: time with us.
35:37
Speaker 5: Hey, thank you so much. Man, have a great one,
35:39
Speaker 5: say law.
35:45
Speaker 1: So, the NFL has put out all the international games
35:48
Speaker 1: for next year.
35:49
Speaker 2: Which one would you like to go to most? You
35:52
Speaker 2: know my answer?
35:53
Speaker 1: Yeah, But it's not really about the team. It's like
35:55
Speaker 1: the city. Oh yeah, don't do Cowboys. You can't do Cowboys. Okay,
35:58
Speaker 1: that's favorite team. Because we could say Cowboys in McAllen,
36:01
Speaker 1: Texas and you'd pick that one.
36:02
Speaker 2: Dude, that would be a dream game. Where would they
36:05
Speaker 2: do that though?
36:06
Speaker 1: The high school stadium McCallan high School Stadium.
36:08
Speaker 2: It seats two hundred people. That'd be pretty cool. Though.
36:11
Speaker 1: It's like the Savannah Bananas. They were going around playing
36:15
Speaker 1: pop up games. They got in a bus and they
36:17
Speaker 1: drove around like we're gonna play this high school sadium.
36:19
Speaker 1: Everybody meet us there.
36:20
Speaker 2: That's cool. What if the Cowboys did that? Amazing? My
36:23
Speaker 2: whole family, aunts, uncles, cousins, they would love it.
36:26
Speaker 1: Yeah, you wouldn't get in though, what you mean not
36:28
Speaker 1: all those people. It's hard to get into two hundred people.
36:30
Speaker 1: I'm not worried about them. I'm worried about me. Oh
36:33
Speaker 1: and we got connections.
36:34
Speaker 2: Here we go. Week one forty nine ers at RAMS
36:37
Speaker 2: in Melbourne, Australia. One out of ten. How much would
36:41
Speaker 2: you like to go? One? Wow? Australia is awesome? Yeah,
36:46
Speaker 2: I know.
36:46
Speaker 1: If it's a long flight, it's that's a commitment. A
36:49
Speaker 1: lot of these are gonna be pretty long. I'm gonna
36:52
Speaker 1: go Okay, I'll factor that in six out of ten
36:55
Speaker 1: on the Melbourne.
36:56
Speaker 2: But that's also gonna be a good game. Did you
36:58
Speaker 2: go to Melbourne? Nope? To Sydney, yep. Okay. I think
37:02
Speaker 2: the game though, is good.
37:05
Speaker 1: Because some of these games, if it's like Jacksonville versus
37:08
Speaker 1: the Jacksonville B team, that's usually what happened some oftime.
37:11
Speaker 2: Brown Kevin, what about that game?
37:14
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a that's like an eight for me. Okay,
37:16
Speaker 3: I really want to go to Australia. I've never been,
37:18
Speaker 3: so that on top of the good game, I'm.
37:20
Speaker 1: It Eddie is going to recuse himself from this one.
37:23
Speaker 1: The Ravens versus the Cowboys in Rio Dijonario, Brazil, Gionnaro,
37:29
Speaker 1: Rio desion NaIO.
37:31
Speaker 3: Kevin, Yeah, man, that's a nine or for me?
37:35
Speaker 2: Just go ten, dude, it's a five for me. Why
37:39
Speaker 2: you're scared of Rio?
37:41
Speaker 6: No?
37:43
Speaker 1: South America not my thing, dude. It's beautiful over there though.
37:49
Speaker 1: You have beaches, jungles, I've been mountains, but you've never
37:53
Speaker 1: even to Brazil. No, But I've been to South America.
37:55
Speaker 1: You've never even been, And you're trying to tell me
37:56
Speaker 1: what South America's like. But there's no way, there's no
37:58
Speaker 1: I have been, I know, but there's no way. All
38:00
Speaker 1: of South America looks the same. But everything you just
38:03
Speaker 1: said was in Costa Rica as well. But I like,
38:05
Speaker 1: I've literally been.
38:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've never been. Yeah, not even close.
38:09
Speaker 1: Mcallen's closest, probably to Mexico. Yeah, but that'd be close
38:12
Speaker 1: to Central America. Indianapolis Colts and Washington Commanders in London.
38:20
Speaker 2: Two. London's cool, But that's not the game. I want
38:26
Speaker 2: to go see in London.
38:27
Speaker 1: Nah, I don't like those teams and then London really
38:31
Speaker 1: like my wife is English, I guess, but like you'd
38:34
Speaker 1: like London though, is it cool?
38:35
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's London's awesome really. The food's fair.
38:39
Speaker 1: It's always rainy, but everything's so old and it's really cool.
38:42
Speaker 1: Like all the famous stuff you've ever seen through pictures,
38:45
Speaker 1: you see them all there.
38:46
Speaker 2: Just walking around London. That's pretty cool. Have you been
38:48
Speaker 2: to London?
38:49
Speaker 1: Right?
38:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've been a couple of times. I'm not a
38:51
Speaker 3: big fan of London.
38:52
Speaker 1: Probably because you've been a couple of times. I meant
38:54
Speaker 1: the first time you went, you were like, this is crazy.
38:55
Speaker 2: They'd fish and chips.
38:57
Speaker 3: Yeah that is true. Yeah, I mean like big band
38:59
Speaker 3: and that is really cool to see. But it almost
39:01
Speaker 3: seems like a like a La Europe or something. It's
39:06
Speaker 3: a lot of money there, a lot of rich people there,
39:09
Speaker 3: massive city.
39:11
Speaker 2: Yeah.
39:11
Speaker 4: I feel like I would expect everything to be old,
39:14
Speaker 4: but I know that it's modernized, you know, like parts.
39:18
Speaker 4: But do you walk in a building from twelve hundred? Right,
39:20
Speaker 4: But isn't it next to a skyscraper that was built
39:22
Speaker 4: last year?
39:23
Speaker 5: No?
39:23
Speaker 2: Not really? Oh, it's like different parts.
39:25
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, I can understand if you go to London
39:28
Speaker 1: three times, like I'm over it because it's a massive city.
39:30
Speaker 2: To me.
39:30
Speaker 1: The first time I went was super cool because it's
39:32
Speaker 1: just stuff I'd seen on television. Is that where like
39:34
Speaker 1: the Mona Lisa is and everything? No, the Mona Lisa
39:37
Speaker 1: is in Paris.
39:38
Speaker 2: Okay.
39:38
Speaker 4: What's cool in London? Other than the big clock, big
39:42
Speaker 4: bend and the old buildings. It's cool the freaking King
39:46
Speaker 4: and Queen Buckingham Palace. That's crazy to watch the guards
39:48
Speaker 4: stand there. I bet that's cool. That ers well that
39:53
Speaker 4: goes around seeing it. Yeah, yeah, pretty cool.
39:55
Speaker 5: Cool.
39:55
Speaker 3: One big eye?
39:56
Speaker 2: Yeah, is that what it's called?
39:58
Speaker 3: I think the big Eye is what it's called.
39:59
Speaker 2: Yet.
40:00
Speaker 1: Next up Philadelphia Eagles versus Jacksonville Jaguars in London. Same,
40:08
Speaker 1: I'd I'd rather go watch the Colts and Commanders than
40:11
Speaker 1: that game. The next Next up, Houston Texans and Jacksonville
40:14
Speaker 1: Jaguars in London.
40:16
Speaker 2: Dude, the Jaguars are just going to stay in London,
40:18
Speaker 2: they live over there. Dude.
40:20
Speaker 1: Man, that game sucks too, getting worse the Steelers and
40:24
Speaker 1: Saints in Paris. That sounds cool. That sounds cool. I'll
40:30
Speaker 1: give that a six. Saints kind of blow, Steelers mid blow.
40:34
Speaker 1: Paris maybe my second favorite city I've ever been to
40:36
Speaker 1: out America.
40:36
Speaker 2: I've heard you say that, so I feel like I
40:38
Speaker 2: really need to see Paris. Kevin.
40:41
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's up there. The only reason it's not
40:44
Speaker 3: higher than the brazil one is because I've been to Paris.
40:46
Speaker 3: But to your point, I love Paris. Paris is awesome.
40:50
Speaker 2: Cincinnati versus Atlanta and Madrid.
40:54
Speaker 4: Yes, ten, give me a ten. That's my homeland. Garcias
40:59
Speaker 4: do we all came from Spain and you like the game. Nah,
41:03
Speaker 4: I don't care about the game, but I just want to
41:04
Speaker 4: go to Spain.
41:06
Speaker 2: I'll go. I've never been. I go seven Kevin, Yeah,
41:13
Speaker 2: six and a half. You been in Madrid?
41:15
Speaker 3: Yeah, just for a quick weekend.
41:16
Speaker 2: What's that like, Vin, from Barcelona? A bunch of thees
41:19
Speaker 2: running around?
41:22
Speaker 3: Actually, no, a Spain.
41:23
Speaker 5: It's not.
41:24
Speaker 3: It's not Mexico, but it is Spain. But Barcelona is
41:27
Speaker 3: better because you're on the beach. Like Madrid is cool,
41:29
Speaker 3: but it's not the beach, you know, like Madrid's capital.
41:32
Speaker 2: Right.
41:33
Speaker 3: Yeah.
41:35
Speaker 2: How's the food over there? Is it like good food?
41:38
Speaker 1: Oh?
41:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's really good, but it does. It's the
41:42
Speaker 3: the tapas everywhere you go. You know, you get the
41:44
Speaker 3: paiea and the tapas everywhere. So it's not like a
41:46
Speaker 3: big burrito or something like that, more just finger food.
41:49
Speaker 1: Did you know what top is? That's the individual right,
41:52
Speaker 1: small plates? Yeah, you get like individual like taco No
41:55
Speaker 1: small plates.
41:56
Speaker 2: What do you mean like appetizers?
41:58
Speaker 4: Oh like okay, yeah yeah, not one? Yeah, but what
42:01
Speaker 4: do you expect like burritos. I didn't think that was Spanish.
42:04
Speaker 1: No, he said, like you and you want burritos. So
42:06
Speaker 1: he's like, hey, dude, it's not burritos.
42:08
Speaker 2: I know that, dude, it's Spain, it's not Mexico.
42:11
Speaker 1: The Patriots Week ten, the Patriots versus the Detroit Lions
42:15
Speaker 1: and Munich, Germany.
42:17
Speaker 2: That'd be cool. I mean, I think that'd be cool.
42:19
Speaker 2: I think Germany. Have you been to Germany? Yeah? Best
42:21
Speaker 2: hot dog you ever had, that's right. Brief.
42:24
Speaker 1: No, we stayed the night in Germany on the edge France,
42:28
Speaker 1: Germany across the border, stayed there, so I felt very
42:31
Speaker 1: French German. But then we stopped at Munich. I think
42:33
Speaker 1: I'd like to spend more time in Germany. So yeah,
42:37
Speaker 1: that's cool too. Seven and the game sounds pretty good. Yeah,
42:40
Speaker 1: the game also would matter to the Patriots and Lions.
42:43
Speaker 2: Kevin.
42:44
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good one. I've actually been in that
42:45
Speaker 3: stadium too, watched a soccer game there Byron Munich game.
42:48
Speaker 1: It was awesome, kind of so cultured. He lived over there,
42:52
Speaker 1: he like went to school there. I'm saying, but how
42:56
Speaker 1: do you like go to school? And where'd you go
42:57
Speaker 1: to school?
42:58
Speaker 2: Kevin?
42:59
Speaker 3: Barcelona, Oh, especially for three months. And I've been to
43:02
Speaker 3: Europe like a couple times other than that. But she
43:05
Speaker 3: just bounced around over there, no problem.
43:06
Speaker 1: It's going state to state there. Yeah, I realize even
43:09
Speaker 1: smaller than everything's so close.
43:11
Speaker 3: Yeah, trained it everywhere you wake up you're in another country.
43:13
Speaker 5: It's awesome.
43:14
Speaker 1: It'd be like in the Northeast. If you're in New York,
43:16
Speaker 1: you want to go to Connecticut. It's similar ish to
43:19
Speaker 1: that Pennsylvania right there, unless you're in Ireland and you
43:21
Speaker 1: can't get anywhere because I made that mistake and that's
43:23
Speaker 1: an island.
43:24
Speaker 2: That's an island.
43:24
Speaker 1: You gotta go on iroplat It Vikings and forty nine
43:28
Speaker 1: ers in Mexico City.
43:30
Speaker 2: Zero zero.
43:33
Speaker 1: That's a good game. Though zero. Dude, Mexico City is crazy.
43:39
Speaker 2: I'm telling you.
43:39
Speaker 4: I went to a Cowboys game there, Cowboys versus the
43:42
Speaker 4: Raiders in Mexico City. Essteca I think is the name
43:47
Speaker 4: of the stadium.
43:49
Speaker 2: Ricky Martin sang the national anthem. Dude, it was crazy.
43:53
Speaker 4: And then I remember I told you this story, but
43:55
Speaker 4: I remember they were throwing like I don't know, something
43:58
Speaker 4: happened like a bad call or something on the and
44:00
Speaker 4: they started throwing water bottles like down, you know, people
44:04
Speaker 4: in the top throwing them on the field. And whoever
44:06
Speaker 4: I was with, he's from Mexico, friend of the family.
44:09
Speaker 4: He's like, get down, cover yourself. I'm like, why, it's
44:12
Speaker 4: just water, Like, it's not water. It was pe They
44:15
Speaker 4: would pee in bottles and then chunk it.
44:18
Speaker 1: So different world, man, all right, pick one of all those.
44:21
Speaker 1: Hopefully you guys remembered which one would you go to.
44:25
Speaker 1: I'm going to Espana. I forgot the game. I think
44:28
Speaker 1: it's Atlanta and Cincinnati. Cincinnati, that's a that's maybe the
44:33
Speaker 1: closest one to us.
44:35
Speaker 2: Spain. Yeah, it's right there, Kevin you.
44:40
Speaker 3: Yeah, I hate to say this, but I gotta go.
44:42
Speaker 3: Ravens Cowboys in in Brazil.
44:44
Speaker 2: Let it go.
44:46
Speaker 3: Great area, never been so that'd be awesome.
44:49
Speaker 4: And it's not during Rio, but like, I'm sure they
44:52
Speaker 4: party hard down there.
44:56
Speaker 2: M I'm going to go, You're like, I'll watch them
44:59
Speaker 2: all from TV.
45:00
Speaker 1: Yeah, if I'm factoring in my wife going, we'd go
45:07
Speaker 1: to Paris because that's a close one and you love
45:09
Speaker 1: it already.
45:10
Speaker 2: It's great.
45:10
Speaker 1: But I think i'd probably go because of the game.
45:14
Speaker 1: And if it was just me by myself to the
45:17
Speaker 1: Patriots and Lions in.
45:18
Speaker 2: Munich, Germany.
45:19
Speaker 3: Nice.
45:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'd put so many wingers in my mouth.
45:22
Speaker 2: Get that hot dog. Yeah, it'd be NonStop when you
45:25
Speaker 2: need it, like ah.
45:26
Speaker 4: You know what I really like out of all those
45:28
Speaker 4: trips is to see the jersey situation. Like I have
45:31
Speaker 4: a theory that they're giving away those jerseys at the
45:33
Speaker 4: door all the different seems because every time they show
45:37
Speaker 4: the crowd, they were in every single jersey and they
45:39
Speaker 4: look like they're just kind of like like they got
45:41
Speaker 4: free tickets to the show.
45:43
Speaker 1: My theory is there are a bunch of NFL fans
45:46
Speaker 1: over there for a lot of different teams, but their
45:48
Speaker 1: team's not coming and they still want to go to
45:50
Speaker 1: the game. So they just wear the jersey the team
45:51
Speaker 1: they have. Yeah, that would be the normal. That would
45:55
Speaker 1: be my theory.
45:57
Speaker 4: I feel like there's some of the door like, oh,
45:58
Speaker 4: we never watch football here, here's this the Cincinnati Bengals outside.
46:01
Speaker 1: Yeah, where is is somebody with a clipboard? Like all right,
46:04
Speaker 1: we got seventeen Cincinnati jerseys out there?
46:06
Speaker 5: All right?
46:07
Speaker 2: Open the Jaguar box up? What team do you think
46:11
Speaker 2: has the worst jersey helmet?
46:14
Speaker 1: Like the ugly I was thinking about this yesterday, and
46:18
Speaker 1: I think a little bit of a two is like
46:20
Speaker 1: if you meet somebody in life and you don't like them,
46:24
Speaker 1: their name is kind of spoiled on the list of
46:26
Speaker 1: good names because you associate that name with that person.
46:30
Speaker 1: So let's say I love the name Benji, and I
46:33
Speaker 1: was like, man, Benji, it's a great name. But there's
46:35
Speaker 1: this dudenamed Benji that beat me up all the time.
46:37
Speaker 1: So now I kind of hate the name Benji because
46:38
Speaker 1: that dude was a douchebag.
46:39
Speaker 2: Yeah.
46:39
Speaker 1: I kind of feel like I'm letting that seep into
46:43
Speaker 1: what I think is the ugliest jersey logo because if
46:46
Speaker 1: they lose a lot, I think that affects it. So
46:49
Speaker 1: because my number one was the Cardinals, and I love Red,
46:52
Speaker 1: but I think the Cardinals have the worst logo full
46:56
Speaker 1: jersey situation to the bird head, the Cardinals the Browns.
47:01
Speaker 4: That's why I was gonna pick the Browns, because it's
47:03
Speaker 4: just an orange helmet and then their jersey is brown brown.
47:07
Speaker 2: I do like the simplicity of it. There's nothing to it.
47:11
Speaker 2: They might have a band on their arm that's orange. Maybe.
47:14
Speaker 2: I do like that little elf they have in the field. Elf. Yeah,
47:18
Speaker 2: fifty yard line. They put the helf out there for
47:19
Speaker 2: a while. I never don't think I've ever seen that
47:22
Speaker 2: the Browns have an elf. Look it up.
47:25
Speaker 3: The fans voted on it.
47:26
Speaker 2: I think it's Brownie the Yelf, really and he sits
47:29
Speaker 2: on the field. Yeah, and I think it's old.
47:30
Speaker 1: Mike.
47:30
Speaker 2: Would you give us the story of Brownie the Elf?
47:32
Speaker 7: Bigging back to nineteen forty six the miss I can't
47:35
Speaker 7: say that word mischiev is folklore characters inspired Tima as
47:41
Speaker 7: generic thing.
47:41
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a creepy little guy back from the forties.
47:44
Speaker 1: Hu And they put it last year, and I think
47:46
Speaker 1: they removed it after a while. But I like that,
47:49
Speaker 1: although it's not on the helmet. I at least like
47:51
Speaker 1: the Browns because they're not trying and the logo didn't
47:55
Speaker 1: end up bad because they were trying too hard. Where
47:58
Speaker 1: I feel like the Jacksonville Jaguars that one gost that's ugly. Yeah,
48:01
Speaker 1: I don't like Jacksonville. The Colors when they win, though
48:04
Speaker 1: it's cool, or I don't like that teal color. Now
48:05
Speaker 1: I like the color.
48:06
Speaker 2: I kind of like that.
48:07
Speaker 1: I'm going Cardinals, Jaguars. I don't like the Seahawks either. Oh,
48:11
Speaker 1: the Seahawks is so cool. I think they're lame that like,
48:14
Speaker 1: and the new jerseys are awesome, like, well, the latest,
48:17
Speaker 1: I need to see them. They got the little checker
48:20
Speaker 1: almost like you're adescent. It's like dark dark. I don't
48:25
Speaker 1: know is it dark blue or dark green. So I
48:26
Speaker 1: might just hate the Colors too. I think they're so cool,
48:29
Speaker 1: but I'm going these are the bad ones to me,
48:31
Speaker 1: the Cardinals, the Browns, Jacksonville, and the Seahawks. Three of
48:34
Speaker 1: those four have been pretty much perennial losers, so that
48:38
Speaker 1: could affect it.
48:39
Speaker 2: Also, I just don't like Green.
48:41
Speaker 1: Like if I were a big, high rated five star
48:46
Speaker 1: basketball player, I'm not going to play for a Green school.
48:48
Speaker 2: I don't care. I don't care if.
48:50
Speaker 1: Michigan State, it's like, we got you come on more
48:52
Speaker 1: than I owe money. I'm not going to a green school.
48:55
Speaker 1: That's funny, but I think green could affect it. Ugliest
48:57
Speaker 1: ones Eddie, I think the Eagles are ugly. Okay, you
49:00
Speaker 1: hate the Eagles though, that's just a Cowboys ris disgusting
49:04
Speaker 1: is what it is.
49:05
Speaker 2: I hate green. I don't hate the Eagles. You don't know.
49:07
Speaker 4: It's just a just generic green with a dumb feather
49:11
Speaker 4: on their helmet.
49:12
Speaker 1: It's like just you hate Philadelphia. You hate the Eagles,
49:16
Speaker 1: and that's okay. There are no rules, but I that's
49:19
Speaker 1: that's seeping in. Uh huh okay.
49:21
Speaker 2: What else? The Browns Okay, just nothing there?
49:24
Speaker 6: Uh.
49:24
Speaker 2: The Saints, I don't think.
49:27
Speaker 1: I don't think they've ever changed their logo or changed
49:29
Speaker 1: their helmet or changed their uniform. It's just kind of
49:32
Speaker 1: like they feel so old. I'm mid on the Saints. Yeah,
49:36
Speaker 1: anything else, and then probably the Texans. No, there's nothing
49:43
Speaker 1: there for me with the Texans. Dark blue is that
49:47
Speaker 1: what they are?
49:47
Speaker 2: Yeah?
49:48
Speaker 1: Dark blue with like a cow on their head. The
49:50
Speaker 1: dark colors mess me up a little bit, just being colorblind. Really. Yeah,
49:52
Speaker 1: I like the Texans, but maybe I don't know what
49:54
Speaker 1: color they really are. Ooh, you know what the Titans like?
49:57
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Titans terrible, so bad? Their helmets look pretty good. Yeah,
50:00
Speaker 1: good point, Kevin. This year they've shifted. They're much cooler.
50:03
Speaker 1: I need to sit on it though. We haven't seen
50:04
Speaker 1: it enough, Kevin. Who's your ugly list?
50:07
Speaker 3: Yeah, well pops in my head. Probably the Panthers.
50:10
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh, I like that one. That's a tough one.
50:13
Speaker 3: I feel like it could be a lot cooler, but
50:15
Speaker 3: it's just so boring to me.
50:16
Speaker 2: And they've lost a lot.
50:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, that has to do with it. And then another one.
50:20
Speaker 3: I know it's a classic, but man, the Steelers has
50:23
Speaker 3: always just been so boring to me.
50:25
Speaker 4: You know what's cool about the Steelers though, is you
50:27
Speaker 4: know what that logo is with a little colored stars.
50:31
Speaker 2: I don't know that's the steel logo.
50:34
Speaker 4: Like if you get a bottle of spray can, like
50:36
Speaker 4: a spray paint, Yeah, and the can has made a
50:38
Speaker 4: steel Their little logo is on that bottle.
50:41
Speaker 2: I didn't know that. Yeah, how fun is that? Fact?
50:45
Speaker 2: Check it out. It's pretty cool. I'm having fun right now.
50:47
Speaker 2: What a fact that is?
50:47
Speaker 4: And then When I was a kid too, I thought
50:49
Speaker 4: that the Steelers meant like robbers, so I was like, oh,
50:52
Speaker 4: I don't like these guys.
50:53
Speaker 1: That would have been cooler, yes, just to us. To them,
50:58
Speaker 1: that's the coolest because of the Steel city. But to us,
51:00
Speaker 1: we don't live there, so we don't have a relationship
51:02
Speaker 1: with steel. So we're like, ah, it's a factory, but
51:07
Speaker 1: steelers they steal steel. The looters, the bandits, right right,
51:13
Speaker 1: have you have anybody else?
51:14
Speaker 5: Yeah?
51:14
Speaker 3: One more? We're going green here. And it's not because
51:16
Speaker 3: I hate them, but their new uniforms, the Jets, they're awful.
51:20
Speaker 2: Oh I like the Jets.
51:21
Speaker 3: I don't.
51:22
Speaker 2: I don't really like the green. You don't like that
51:24
Speaker 2: dark green? Their helmet looks like a lollipop. I don't,
51:27
Speaker 2: but I don't hate it as much as like that
51:28
Speaker 2: Jaguar green. The teal is that? So that's not green? No,
51:32
Speaker 2: it's like a blue green. Or the Seahawks green. Is
51:35
Speaker 2: that green? Yeah? A different shade of No, that's blueish,
51:39
Speaker 2: that's more blue green.
51:40
Speaker 1: So MNE's a struggle color blind man, my coust the
51:43
Speaker 1: worst logo to you, commanders, Yes, do you like the
51:47
Speaker 1: new ones?
51:47
Speaker 2: With a W? No? It's just a w I like it,
51:50
Speaker 2: and the maroon is just a ghost.
51:54
Speaker 1: I don't like yellow mixed in, so I can do
51:56
Speaker 1: without that. But it's like when the Chiefs do heavy yellow,
51:59
Speaker 1: I don't like that. I like the Chiefs with white
52:01
Speaker 1: and red. Yeah, I'm just big red games. You can
52:03
Speaker 1: see that red perfect right.
52:05
Speaker 2: The red. That red's awesome.
52:06
Speaker 4: What do you guys think about the the Packers? Is
52:10
Speaker 4: that too to you?
52:12
Speaker 1: No?
52:12
Speaker 2: I like it.
52:13
Speaker 1: It's a little green and yellow both, which is a
52:14
Speaker 1: bit contrary to everything I just said, but they've won
52:18
Speaker 1: enough to make it cool.
52:19
Speaker 2: I like that.
52:19
Speaker 1: It's been really old, yeah, like there's something to that.
52:22
Speaker 1: It's been consistent since the beginning of the NFL. And
52:28
Speaker 1: it's just a letter, just a dult g Like I
52:31
Speaker 1: feel like that cardinal on that helmet, that's a lame cardinal,
52:34
Speaker 1: Like have it killing somebody, ripping a heart out of something.
52:37
Speaker 2: It's just a pretty little Cardinals it is, yeah, just.
52:39
Speaker 1: Like And then also I start to think back, maybe
52:42
Speaker 1: because I hate Saint Louis Cardinals because I'm a cup
52:44
Speaker 1: of fan, maybe that's affects it.
52:45
Speaker 2: I don't even realize it. So yeah, so what are
52:49
Speaker 2: your favorites. Do you like the Rams?
52:50
Speaker 1: It's now the Bengals by far the coolest helmets in
52:52
Speaker 1: the NFL. I think the Bengals have the but I
52:56
Speaker 1: also grew up loving the Bengals because Boomeraside someone's left
52:58
Speaker 1: handed quarterback, and I played it as left handed quarterback
53:01
Speaker 1: like early football, and I was like, that's my guy.
53:04
Speaker 1: But I think the Bengals have the coolest helmets. Do
53:07
Speaker 1: you feel that way?
53:08
Speaker 2: Yes, the white Tiger helmets are even good, even cooler.
53:11
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I'm gonna go Bengals.
53:13
Speaker 2: You Rams.
53:15
Speaker 4: I love the Ram horn just if you can just
53:18
Speaker 4: picture that being their horn, It's just awesome.
53:21
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love that. Meant to me, but I get it, Kevin.
53:25
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm trying to think. I mean probably the Eagles. Honestly,
53:30
Speaker 3: Sorry Eddie, but I like that you like that.
53:33
Speaker 7: Yeah, I kind of liked the Eagle talking about it,
53:36
Speaker 7: Mike Niners. I love that color scheme.
53:38
Speaker 2: That's cool.
53:39
Speaker 1: Golden red color scheme is good because logo logos kind
53:44
Speaker 1: of lamb.
53:44
Speaker 2: Yeah, logos lamb, but the colors look good.
53:46
Speaker 3: Yea.
53:46
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's a good color scheme where you know what,
53:48
Speaker 1: I think the Raiders could really redo their logo.
53:52
Speaker 4: To something cool because it's a great mascot. But like
53:55
Speaker 4: there's a louder that's.
53:57
Speaker 2: The Raiders are a.
54:00
Speaker 5: God.
