• 0:22
  Speaker 1: you know, people out there, they want us to comment

  Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday, which, despite what all these idiot talking heads
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: out there, I want to tell you, is clearly a
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: very smart move, very smart. And on that note, we
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: have on our show today one of those talking heads
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: who apparently disagrees with us because he knows absolutely nothing
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: about head coaching in the NFL. Former Not Good jets
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: and Brown's head coach and now fs won NFL analyst
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Eric Mangini jets and Brown's Wow, what a sparkling resume. Yeah, exactly. Well,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: before we get in all that people, you know, our
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: long time listeners out there are millions of you. You know,
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: you're probably sitting there wondering why this show is suddenly
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: on a different podcast feed after we've been absolutely dominating
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: Philly Sports Talk for twenty three years and counting. As
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: you well know, well, h we have a huge announcement,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: don't we don't it we should though we are here
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: had door announced after several months of tense negotiations that
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: we one hundred one we have arranged a partnership with
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: I Heart Radio, Premier Network, and Fox Sports Radio to
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: distribute this show right here. As they say in the business,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: if you can't beat them, join them. And that's why
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio and I Heart have given in to
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: our many demands and partnered with us to gain access
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: to our huge audience. Yeah. Clearly they wanted to cash
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: in on Philly Sports right now because it's so hot
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: and obviously you know, we are the trusted and authenticated
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: voices of Philly sports for twenty three years and counting
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: almost twenty four. Yeah, we are one hundred percent originals.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Don't listen to those other phonies out there, yeah, exactly. Anyway,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: now that we have an even more massive reach, companies
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: have been lightened up our phones seven, begging us to
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: do ad reads on this show, basically throwing money at us.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: So luge sums of money. Yeah, huge. So right now
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: we're gonna do a little business and do an ad
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: read for our good friends at red Box. Do you
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: stream movies online? What do you lose a hermit or something? Yeah,
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: get out of the house, weirdo. Red Box available at
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: some CVS locations. All titles subject to availability. Okay, well,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: now that we got that business out of the way, Tony,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: it's time to get new top segment here. You know,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: on other shows, the host they don't know anything about sports,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: so they're constantly telling you what they got wrong. Not us.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: We are always one percent on the money. So that's
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: why right now we're gonna do one of the most
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: populous segments where Polly and Tony were right? Where were right?
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: All right? First out of the gate, here we go.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: You know a few idiots out there this week, Tony,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: they're coming up to us and saying that was somehow
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: wrong because last week we said that the Phillies were
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: a lock to win the World Series. Well now they're saying, oh, well,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: the Phillies lost quote unquote to the Astros. Hold on, people,
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: you'll do realize we're talking about the Houston Astros here
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: known Cheetahs. This series isn't close to over yet. You know,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: we're only in the opening stage, is he? You know,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: next spot comes the lawsuits, right then the trial. You know,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: we have to carefully review all the film, all the
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: dugout foot and then litigate the entire series in a
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: court of law. It's the only fair thing to do, right, Tony. Absolutely,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: As I recall, in the Rules of Baseball it clearly
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: says in Statue sixteen point four point five point seven
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: f B that if a team is suspected to be cheating,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: that is enough to delay certifying the results of the
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: series until a proper investigation is completed. So until then,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: trust us, the Phillies will win the series in a
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: court of law around the year seven. Great insight, Tony,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: so valuable, and that the ego people, that's what we
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: call research. So until then you can quit your whinding.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: Where Pauli and Tony were right. As we mentioned up
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: top earlier this week, the Colts fired head coach Frank Reich, who,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: like most people, was good in Philly but sucked everywhere else.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: But now that the cults, they rushed to hire a
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: new coach, and this somehow took a lot of people
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: by surprise, but not us. I mean the moment we
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: heard that the Courts were looking for a new coach,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Tony and I we turned to each other simultaneously and said, Jeff,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday, we're going. You know, now, people, this this
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: is not a good higher because Jeff Saturday has zero
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: professional coaching experience. But that doesn't matter one bit, right Tony.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Of course, not think about it. When NFL teams draft
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: players out of college, do they have professional experience? If
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: you wanted all your players to have professional experience, then
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: you wouldn't ever be able to have any players. Great point, Tony.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: And you know, even Jim Ersay, the owner of the Colts,
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: he agrees with us to He said this about Jeff Saturday.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: This is what he said. I am glad he doesn't
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: have any NFL experience. I'm glad he hasn't learned the
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: fear that's in this league and has a real good
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: point here, doesn't eat Tony. Yeah, look at the most
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: dominant coaches right now. They're young, Nick Sirianni, Sean McVeigh,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Mark McDaniel. The old coaches like Bill Belichick and love E. Smith.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: They're losing. Why Because they have too much experience, They
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: know way too many plays. It gets confusing for them
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: and their play is what you want is a coach
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: who doesn't know that many plays. Terrific analysis that Tony.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: You know, in the NFL, you have to think fast.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: That clock is ticking. And if you're thinking back to
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: all the many Super Bowls you've been in and all
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: the plays you ran and called, you're gonna be there
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: all day. Clock is gonna pick to zero. But if
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: you know you know just three or four plays, well,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: then you can make those decisions much quicker. Yeah, too
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: many coaches overthink. Wouldn't it be better to have a
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: coach who underthinks so well? Said Dony. We're Pauli and Dony,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: you were right. Finally, on the subject of Bill Belichick,
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: you know, we've said for years that he's a degenerate
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: cheatah and you know, people, it's taken a while here,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: but Bill Belichick is finally admitting it. You know, the
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: other day he told reporters he said that opposing defenses
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: are jumping plays and reading his defenses do well, and
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: he's saying it's because the Patriots offensive players are tipping
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: the plays, making moves and giving away which play they're
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: gonna call. And Tony, this is a clear admission of
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: guilt by Bill Belichick, isn't it? Absolutely? Now, while it
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: might not sound to you like an open admission, we
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: have to rely on the principle of he who smelt
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: it felt it. If you extend that principle to football,
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: then he who smelt the cheating felt the cheating. Great point, Tony,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: And you know this is just another sign that Bill
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Belichick has been in the league way too long. He's
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: no longer good at his best skill cheating. Yeah, he's
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: getting out cheated by other teams. Clear sign that it's
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: time to hang it up. Well, speaking of Belichick, we
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: got one of his former assistants coming on the line
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: who worked for him in New England and also went
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: out the head coach. The Jets and Browns are the
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: very reputable football organizations there. Anyway, let's just go ahead
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: and bring him on the FUSCO satellite network. Alright, now,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: our guessed on the line. Apparently he wants to educate
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: us about head coaching in the NFL, like he knows anything.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: He's a former fired coach from both the Jets, in
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: two thousand eight and Browns, So that tells you everything. Now,
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: he does weekdays First Things First on Fox, which comes
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: on at three o'clock. Now for some reason then they
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: haven't even retitled the show, so who knows what's going
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: on there. Anyway, let's bring him in. Eric Mangini, Welcome
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: to the show. Uh it is. It is such an
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: honor to be here with you guys. I know this
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: is your your first show on a on a bigger
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: and a bigger stage, and you guys are technically it's
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: the same size you know them, Yeah, exactly. You like
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: the Eagles, you know what I mean. You're you're undefeated,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: you're doing great things that I'm just so to be here. Wow,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: what a great open. See that's how you be at
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Mr Main Yeah all right, so you know,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: let's look at the news. Eric, coach you'd like to
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: be called coach? Eric? What do you like to be called?
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Whatever you guys feel comfortable with? All right, we'll do both,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: all right. You know, people are up in arms over
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: the Colts hiring Jeff Saturday even though he has no
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: professional coaching experience. But don't you think that coaching experience
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: is overrated. Yeah, I mean absolutely, I totally think that way,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: and I think that way about a lot of profession
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: You know, oftentimes I choose my doctors by how little
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: experience they have. Sarcastic started off. He started off with
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: that nice welcome, and he's behaving battle switch. You can
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: just tell us how you really think that if I
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: could be on the air with a couple of podcasts
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: very little experience in football, knowlogy? You know I always
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: embraced his name. Are you taking said anything? Yeah, well
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: the executives at Fox Sports Radio disagree with you. Yeah,
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: I think it's a good, good decision. It's a good decision. Okay,
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: the gloves are off, alright, but hold on, you know,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: I can tell you being sarchistic, but you know, teams
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: draft players out of college all the time. I have
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: no professional experience, So why can't get coaches without professional experience?
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: Isn't that why the double standard? Well, typically those guys
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: so have played college football, so so they have that
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: that basis. And and look with Jeff, he played for
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: a long time, and there's been some other examples of
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: guys going from from the broadcast booth to coaching. I
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: would think that either one of you two guys. If
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: how Howie Roseman ever leaves, could probably take over the Eagles,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: you know, with your wealth of experience. So this guy
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: thinks he's at the last Lasset boulevard over there. No,
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: but guess what we could do the job he's doing.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: He's got to be a comic because head coaching didn't
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: work out. Yeah, exactly, he's opening up for Carrot Top.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: I think I'm going to buy podcasting Brian Heart Radio.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: That's my next. Now on the line with Galagha, I mean, hey,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: don't forget to take your waitress seriously, please, let's get serious.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: Don't you think there is something you know? Jim Marrisay
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: said that it's bad for coaches to have too much experience.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: You know, they become scared in this league after a
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: few years, And frankly, you know, we looked at your history.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: Doesn't that seem to apply to you, Like, you know,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: when you were coaching the Browns that season it was terrible?
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Was that because you were scared of making all the
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: same mistakes that you made with the Jets. Yeah, you know,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: you do get scared in situations like that. I remember
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: when we were beating the Eagles in the Super Bowl.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: You know, there were moments where we were scared. Oh,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: you're going back to the time the pain. I'm just
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: saying specifically, we were talking about the Browns. You a
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: super bowler quarterback Jake the lawn, and then you didn't
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: do anything with him because you were scared. Okay. I
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: think it's I think it's one of those situations where
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: you can get into a little bit of group think
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: because you've been in the industry for a long time
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: and that there's some value with bringing new ideas in,
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: fresh perspectives in And I think it's a lot like
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: like broadcasting sometimes people who have no ability to comment
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: on the quality of coaches. Again, he's going off tangent.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: Come out, come out and make a good point every
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: now and many writers because it's clearly not enough, it's
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: clearly not exactly alright. Before we wrap your set here,
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: you know, we'll give you another chance to get things right.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: You know you you did as you wanted to, shoeing
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: into the conversation. You were on the Patriots when they
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: won those Super Bowls, which you apparently want to take
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: credit for, even though you deserve about point zero to
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: a percent of it. But you know, uh, Bill Belichick
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: admitted that defenses are picking up on his plays because
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: the players are tipping them. But Tony, Tony, tell him
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: your perspective, You're a very smart perspective. Listen to this, coach, Eric.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: If we follow the principle of he who smelt it
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: dealt it, then we have to surmise that he who
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: smelt the cheating the cheating. Isn't this an admission to
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: guilt from Bill Belichick? Yeah? Again, another great point by you, guys,
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: um and and insightful too. I don't I don't think
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: that's necessarily the case he's talking about. He's talking about
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: his team and something they're doing, and the the the
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: idea that maybe they're being too predictable, and and I
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: don't think he's addressing it from a cheating perspective. I
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: think he's addressing it from a we need to do
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: at your very predictably. Are you? Are you asked? You
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: want him to hire you back? There's nothing I'm not
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: sticking up for anybody. I'm trying to give you some
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: insight into what I think he's trying to share their Okay,
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: you know what, let me this is the worst on
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: the show and I smelled how bad you? Uh? And
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: now I'm gonna, you know, start over. Is he off
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: the line? Jay, hang up the phone. You know that's
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: what they call in the business. A terrible booking. Should
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: have never been on the show. Horrible. Yeah, absolutely terrible
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: way for Fox Sports Radio to start off their partnership
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: with us. But you know, we're gonna need to talk
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: to somebody about getting better guests. You know, it was
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: a great show otherwise by us, So let's go out
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: on a positive note. Then, of course, thank our good
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: friends who have paid huge numbers for that ad read
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: our friends at red Box. Yeah, you know someone who
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: isn't tough friends, producer Jay? What corrections? What look? Number one?
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: You said, there's a baseball statute that says the MLB
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: can't certify the World Series if the Astros are suspected
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: of cheating. Yeah, yeah, trust me, no rule like that
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: has ever existed. Oh yeah, well I wish you never existed. Yeah,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: I'd like to rule you out of planet Earth. Yeah,
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: that's it. Normal. Second, what you said, older, more experienced
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: coaches in the NFL are losing Yeah, the dinosaurs, Yeah, embarrassing. No,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: Bill Belichick has a winning record this season, and Pete
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: Carroll is seventy and has the Seahawks in the first place.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: You guys are just way off again. Oh yeah, well
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: I hope you drive way off a cliff. Yeah, I'm
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: going to rip your head way off. Yeah. What of
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: that other thing up you called the Dolphins coach Mark McDaniel. Yeah, no,
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: his name is Mike McDaniel, not Mark. Oh yeah, will
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: mark my words, I'm going to beat you. Yeah, I'm
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: going to leave a huge mark on your forehead when
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: we're done. Now, terrific. He's dead. He's as dead as
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: looks with experience. Yeah, he's like an NFL head coach
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: who's been in the league too long. Scar Alright, well, look,
