• 2:14
  Speaker 1: from the game, and oh what a game it was.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Were you watching? Did you know? Maybe not? I don't know.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: We'll start out Value of the Sun, Glintondale, Arizona. There
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: that was the stage for the big college football matchup,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: the Orphans of Ole Miss dumped by Lane Kiffen for
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: that sexier lady in Baton Rouge taking on the you
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: from Miami. I'm old enough to remember when Michael Irvin
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: was a playmaker. Now he's like Spike Lee or something
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: like that. He's a cheerleader on the sideline. He's going
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: for it, going all in, man, come on now, all right,
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: But it was a winner into the national title game
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: winner gets a date at hard Rock in South Florida.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: There and they would take on the winner of the
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: Oregon Indiana game, the Canes. If you like to gamble
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: on such things, a three point favorite coming in. You
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: had Herbie Kirk, Kirkstreet and Chris Father there yapping into
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: microphones on the broadcast in Island game. Did you watch again?
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he did not, I have no
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: idea we watched. Still, that's all we care about. Carson Beck.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Carson Beck, who, Yeah, he's been around forever. He scrambled
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: for a three yard touchdown with eighteen seconds left. Is
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: Miami matriculated the ball down the field all the way
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: you assumed that, well, let's just get a field goal.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: This game's gonna go over to No no, no, no,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: no no. Carson Beck not known as the most mobile quarterback,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: but he got into the end zone, hit pay dirt,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: and Miami punching their ticket back to their home base
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: and they have a shot at their first national championship
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: since way back in twenty one. I will not tell
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: you what I was doing after Miami won their championship.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: And yeah, I've been right here behind these microphones anyway,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: nonetheless the big win there for the Canes. They beat
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Old Miss thirty one to twenty seven in an exhilaration
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: situation there the College Football Playoffs semi final at the
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: Fiesta Bowl, and then afterwards Carson Beck was a sports
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: cliche machine, was like nuke Lusha there. We never flinched,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: he said, in the face of adversity, we had to respond,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: and we respond. Went all the quotes, all the sports
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: cliche quotes, and Beck finished with two hundred and sixty
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: eight yards, had a couple of touchdowns, did have an interception,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: and so the Hurricanes. Remember there was this great uproar,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: the hullabaloo before the college football play Well, I don't
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: understand why Miami was let's get another big ten team
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: got on the SEC team in there. Well, all the
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: whining and the bitching and the complaining from Notre Dame
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: and Alabama and all that, and it's Miami that ends
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: up not winning the a SEC. They didn't play in
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: the ACC title game. Try to win the ACC title game,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: we don't play in it. And they didn't play in
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: that title game, and they were the controversial pick, and
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: they have made their way through. Well, let's hear before
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: we move on, we must celebrate the cliche. Here's Carson Beck,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: who just is like an empty vessel, just spewing out
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: sports cliches. Tago, listen, I'm so proud of this team.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: We never played swee. I mean, thanks the adversity. When
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: we responded, we responded, but we never gave up. You know,
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: I looked at the guys on the sideline and you
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: could just see it in their eye. You can see
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: it in their eye. Just we all had a good
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: feeling that what just happened was about to happen. All
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: the work that we put in, all the preparation that
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: goes into this as for moments like these, you know,
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: you played this game for moments like these.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: You lived for moments like these. You know, I'm so
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: proud of this team. I'm so proud of the way
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: that we fought. The great thing about that is he
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: didn't mention any of the schools, and he can't. He's,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: you know, because he's changed schools. So you just got
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: to keep a generic. He got to get we call
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: that in the business, we call that evergreen is what
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: we call all right. So the two lost Hurricanes will
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: face either Indiana or Number five Oregon, Nike you in
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: the national title game that'll be coming up on January nineteenth.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: All right, very exciting, But that's good jumping off points.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: So let us discuss the question, does this Carson Beck
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: championship run for Miami does it count as a Cinderella story?
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: Woo?
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Everyone loves their Cinderella story. So I've got funions, shake
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: and Bake and Walmart Greeter, and we will combine all
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: of these things together and we are going to have
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: a pa rt Why party. We're gonna have a party,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: all right, So a to ask the question, does this
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: count as a Cinderella story? No, of course no, what
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: are you stupid? This is not some rags to riches.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: It's rich person changing banks. That's what that's positifically what
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: it's in. Carson Beck was already making a lot of
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: money on the n NIL. Good for him. It's semi
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: pro football. And so think of this like a designer remake,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: if you will, for Carson Beck. That's what this was,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: a designer remaking. You zoom out wide angle lens on
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: all of this, and it is a sign of the times.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: It is a modern remix on a fairy tale where
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: the pumpkin in this version of Cinderella is leased and
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: the carriage has a big swoosh on it. There's a
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: big sponsor logo. Carson Beck obviously did not come from rags.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: He came from the Georgia Bulldogs and sec power house
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: with room service and trophies and servants and all that.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: This was not a rescue mission. This was another bank
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: heist for the quarterback, Carson Beck. Good for him in
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: the nil era. This is what it's all about. The
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: glass slipper is a big fat collective deal and Beck
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: dancing straight to the ball and mo what the ball
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: he had chasing? I suppose there were four million dollars.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: That's a four million dollar quarterback. That's a nice payday
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: for the Hurricanes. There he grabbed a bag of funions
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: on his way out as well. Enjoined those funions, had
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: a fun time. And that's not Cinderella. It's more Oceans
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: eleven wearing shoulder pads is what this is. And it's
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: savvy capitalism, whatever way you want to frame it, but
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: it's what we have today. We have free agency in
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: college football and you don't really have to do tern papers.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: I don't think I can't imagine you think, when's the
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: last time Carson Beck went to class? Does it? Matt?
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: Who cares? We watched some semi pro football. We don't
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: care if these guys go to school. We don't care.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: They're idiots. Who cares. Just catch the damn ball or
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: throw the damn ball. Don't call it magic though, Don't
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: call it. No, don't do that. Carson Beck did not
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: stumble into into midnight. He set a bunch of alarms,
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: took a bunch of calls, He negotiated and went back
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: and forth, and to his credit, he actually has played
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: pretty well well enough in this college football playoff to
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: justify the price tag. Right, you pay if you're the
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Boosters at Miami, you pay four million dollars to get
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: to the National Championship Game and to win it. They
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: haven't won it yet, but they're there now, one win away,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: and the ledger at Miami reads money well spent. They
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: purchased the ring. They just might have to return it,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: but at this point they have it, so we'll see
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: what happens there now. Staying with the theme of the hour,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: on the lose ers side, this space mountain ride, it
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: has come to a stop. It is ov R for
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: the Cindo rel. It's hard to call Old missus Cinderella
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: because in the SEC it's like, like SEC Cinderella would
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: be Vanderbilt. That would be kinda that would be kind
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: of that. But looking at the long term weather models here,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: let's let's break this down. Is the future bright as
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: the dust settles? Is the future bright? For coach Pete Goldings,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Old Miss team after the college football run is now
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: dun skies is the future bright. So you pop onto
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: the hood here and again you look at the long
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: term weather models, because not only do we do sports here,
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: we do weather. And if you look at the forecast,
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: you see some clouds, there's a little bit of drizzle,
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: and maybe some some stray thunderclaps out there. So this
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: is not a clear blue sky situation. It is not.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: I don't think you'd say that either. Old Miss has
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: has been a college football wasteland for decades, a place
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: where dreams go and take a nice nap in Oxford
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: and forget the alarm clock and just snooze. And then
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: Lane Kiffin showed up like a red bull IV drip.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: He would do the shaken bake and the Bugie will
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Gee on the camera and as they say in that
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: commercial that kept getting played during the game, he was
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: the hotty toddy Lane Kiffin there at all miss and
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: he's sold hope like it was a late night infomercial.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: But wait, there's more now. Golding I don't know much
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: about him. There's a couple of sound bites that I like.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: The early read is though, that he's much more of
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: an instructional manual kind of a coach. It's necessary, nobody's
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: that excited about it. Though it's standard issue, solid, dependable.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: Golding's not bad. It's not that he's conference room oatmeal
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: is what he is. That's what he's conference has bland
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: and it's not that warm, and it's there for if
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: you want it. In today's college football, though the economy
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: it doesn't make it tingle. And this always comes back
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: to three letters nil, name, image, likeness. You got to
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: pay the man to be the man. To be the man,
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: you got to pay the man. And that's the gas
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: pedal without the bags of cash. You're riding on a
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: tricycle and you're trying to win the Daytona five hundred.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Good Luck on that. Good luck on trying to win
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: the daytona five hundred on a tricycle. Now, the thing is,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: the boosters are still there. There's obviously a fair amount
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: of money at All Miss and they got nothing else
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: to spend it on other than their football team. But
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: yet the future it's not it's not dark. I'll say
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: it's overcast. How about that, because you're you're still in
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: the SEC. Although that's it's not quite as good right now,
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: at this moment, Right at this moment, the SEC is
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: not looking as good as it did a year ago
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: or two years ago, three years ago, whatever. So might
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: want to bring the umbrella if you're a fan and
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: the sun is not guarantee. It is not guaranteed, all right?
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: Last word to the Lane train, true true, yeah so
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Lane commenting at the end. There was a controversial play,
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: the final play for Old Miss, where there was some
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: serious wrestling going on. You make the call, is that
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: a pass interference penalty in the end zone? And then
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: you have one more play. It wouldn't you know, it's
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: not the NFL, so it wouldn't have been the one
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: yard line, but they would have picked up a trunk
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: of yards and moved the ball closer and had one
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: last play or is it a non call? So it's
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: Lane was like, ah, that was a penalty. And if
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: I was laying kiff And I would have said the
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: same thing. Because he had a quarter of a million
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: dollar wager, not on DraftKings. That was at Old Miss,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: that was a university, Louisiana State University. A quarter of
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: a million dollars. Now, an Old Miss win would have
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: earned Lane Kiffen another two hundred fifty thousand dollars. Now,
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: I watched it and I was like, I really wanted
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: to go passing deference passing inference, but they were both
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: grabbing each other. So it's like, you know, and they
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: almost never call that at the end of the game, right,
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: They almost never call that because let them decide the
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: game on the field and all that. And if it
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: had been completely one sided where it was just the
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: Miami player grabbing the Old Mess player, I said, okay,
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: that you gotta call that, but it was they were
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: grabbing each other, all right. Question, are you bummed out?
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: I want you to be honest, Are you bummed out
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: that former Old Miss coach Lane Kiffen missed out on
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty thousand dollars in a bonus. Yeah,
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: so I'll go first. I gotta tell you I am
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: absolutely I'm for klemped here. I've already lit a candle
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: in the remote studio. Here. Lane Kiffin is down to
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: his last yacht payment. Think about that. This is tragedy.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: It's absolutely tragic. This is like Grapes of Wrath stuff.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: If you know that movie back in there. Lane's gone,
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: He's gone from Old miss He's now in Baton Rouge.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: And I'm thinking he probably went out after the game
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: and started rattling a tin cump and said, you know,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: send me money like our friend weed man, hippie. You know,
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: got some spare nil money. I need some help here.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: Of course, it's it's all fake hardship, right, this is
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: Instagram influencer, poor hard scrabble streets unless it's not. And
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: Lane didn't lose any money. He just got extra bonus
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: on top of bonus on top of bonus. Because the
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: people at Louisiana State have They've got some have you
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: got some issues? Anyway? It's like you tell like when
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: you back in the day, people used to have this
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: thing called change, and every once in a while in
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: the old days, people would drop some change into the sofa,
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: into the couch cushions, and you decide is it worth
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: my truble to dig around and find it? And oftentimes no,
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: And then like once every couple of years, you'd dig
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: through the sofings. Oh man, I got like I got
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: two dollars and thirty five cents. That's pretty good. That's
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: pretty good. Now. My favorite part is that he's you
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: don't get the money, but I guess he gets his
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: staff back, right, that's the thing. They all head to
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: batal rugs now and they'll have a big meeting, big
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: pow wow where and that's how it goes. So it's
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: not really a loss. It was like a coupon, buy
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: one coordinator, get the rest for free. And so Lane Kiffin,
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: who always has fallen up, he always falls up. The
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: guy's the deluxe snake oil salesman, Lane Kiffin. In a
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: business filled with people who are all cut out of
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: the same cloth, Lane just as a little more sleazy
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: and that drives the other snake oil salesman, Battie, drives
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: a Battie and he's the kind of guy Lane that
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: would have no problem selling flood insurance in the middle
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: of a drought in the desert and he'd be fine
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: with it. And so the two hundred and fifty thousand,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: he's likely going to make that back by the end
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: of the day on Friday before actually not even the
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: end it before lunch by flirting with some LSU boosters
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: and sub tweeting some recruits and Lane as a snake charmer.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: He's a Walmart greeter, big smile, kind of dead eyes,
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: kind of dead eyes. There, welcome in. Also, Hey, what's
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: your forty time and your GPA? And how much would
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: it cost for you to come to school here? How
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: would you feel about transferring? Yeah, Boutton Rouge is really
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: nice in the winter, it's really nice. So he'll get
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: back and Lane will be poaching talent. How many of
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: these Old Miss players? How many of these guys are
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: going to transfer to follow Lane Kiffin to LSU. What's
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: the number is? Do we have an over under on that?
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Is it four? If I said over under four players
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: that played in the championship game for Old Miss end
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: up playing for LSU in the portal, I'll sit the
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: over on earth. It's not zero, right? Can we agree
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: it's not zero? At least a couple of players will
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: go and Lane will be out there poaching talent like
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: a raccoon in a dumpster behind Whole Foods, just going
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: for it, just having a grand old time. And why not,
• 18:23

• 19:07
  Speaker 1: onto the national Championship game in college football in the NFL.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: They're onto a new coach, the Hipster Coaches out. That's
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: our lead store. If you somehow miss this, I don't
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: know how you would have a day or so after
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: saying hey I'm back, baby, I'm back, the Dolphins said no,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: you're not loser, and the Dolphins gave Mike McDaniel the
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: old heave. Ho told them to take a long walk
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: off a short peer, and he did so. This after
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: he said he would be sticking around in Miami. They
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: cut ties with their coach after a second straight season
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: where they did not make the postseason. Dolphins, if my
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: math is right, is it the eighth team?
• 19:49
  Speaker 5: Now?
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: I believe it is. He's the eighth NFL team that
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: has decided to say bye bye to their head coach.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: So twenty five percent, twenty five percent failure rate in
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: the NFL. Twenty five percent of coaches have been let
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: go and we're not even done yet. There's more coming
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: after wildcard weekend. Somehow, Aaron Glenn is not one of
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: those coaches. So all right now. Stephen Ross issued a
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: prepared statement. That's the rich guy that owns the Dolphins.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: He said, quote after careful evaluation and extensive discussion since
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: the season ended, I have made the decision that our
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: organization is in need of comprehensive change. That's the money
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: quote from that also a good jumping off points. So
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: let us discuss the question after firing Stephen Ross. After
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: firing mister McDaniel, Stephen Ross said, Stephen Ross, the owner
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: said that the Dolphins need a quote, comprehensive change after
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: they let go of Mike McDaniels. So how do you
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: unpack this one? So my observations, I've got kombucha, Wendy's,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: and Picky Eater, and well combined all of these things
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: together and we were going to play connect three now
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: number enough. Well, when Stephen Rass says the Dolphins need
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: comprehensive change, that's his quote. That those are his words
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: or somebody wrote them for them, but they were pretending
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: that that's what he said. So fine, that is not
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: corporate jargon. That is a concession speech. It is that
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: is a billionaire the billionaire version of uh, yeah, this
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: ain't it, dude, Yeah, this ain't it, dude, It's not it.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: He rolled the dice. He hired the guy that looked
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: like he shouldn't be a head coach. He hired the
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: guy that looked like he should be doing a podcast
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: at south By Southwest or serving you coffee at Starbucks.
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: And what did he get? He got a lukewarm tuna
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: fish sandwich, which, for some of you is edible. It's
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: also forgettable and they didn't even include a pickle. Finished
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: up thirty five and thirty three. Not exactly evolution. That
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: is like the screensaver on your laptop. It just keeps
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: popping up when you step away for a couple of minutes.
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: Four years zero playoff wins now Ross finally admitting the
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: owner there that Mike McDaniel was in over his jet
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: skis if you know what I'm saying. There supposedly a
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: great play caller, smart guy and all that, but the
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: head coach not so much. And it's watching him coach.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: It was always bizarre because he just didn't look like
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: it and his team's performed often like he didn't know
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: what he is doing, and it was kind of like
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: asking your valet to fly the plane. Why would you
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: ask the valet to fly the plane as well, because
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: he knows where the keys are. I know, he knows
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: where the keys are, but he didn't know how to
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: fly plane. But he knows where the keys are, and
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: then you can put the key in the thing, and
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: the planes even half keys. I don't know. But the
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: issue was the fire in the belly. The fire in
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: the belly. Mike McDaniel has a small belly, the fire
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: in the belly. It's just kombucha, lots of kombucha, as
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: in kombucha tea. Being a leader of men generally speak,
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: not always, there are exceptions, but generally speaking requires edge,
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: some snarl. Is there any snarl in mcdang? I don't
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: think so. Instead, what they got there was no kombucha. There.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: There was a lot of flax seeds and vibes. That's it.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: And then Stephen Ross doesn't sound mad, just sounded disappointed.
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: And that's worse. Isn't that worse than being mad? Disappointed
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: is worse than being mad. And this is him saying,
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: the experiment is ov r ov are over. The dolphins
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: want now a real coach, be careful what you wish for.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: Less silicon valley, more hard hat, lunch pale type coach,
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: less wellness, seminar, more whistle whistle whistle. And so they
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: say comprehensive change. Comprehensive change, which means stop mistaking clever
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: for commanding. That is not commanding. That is the mumbling
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: and the blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, the
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: stumbling and the mumbling, the whole thing there and pretending
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: like the positivity is a win in January, it is not.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: Now page two, continuing the frame by frame in depth
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: team coverage breakdown of the coaching change in Miami. So
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: the question what's next for Mike McDaniel after the Dolphins firing?
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: So he got Is he gonna be selling you weight
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: loss drugs? Now? Is he gonna be working at the
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: coffee shop? Well, Daniel is living the life. You'll be
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: getting a nice big check from the Dolphins. And in
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: this business, if you want to call what they do
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: a business, you don't soul search. You don't have a
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: pity party. You repack your duffel bag and you splash
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: some water on your face, and you shove off to
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: the next township. And you're a carpetbagger. You're toting your
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: pack down the dusty winnemuck a road. More planes, trains
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: and automobiles, round and round and round and round, round
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: and then round and round and round the coaching carols.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: Then one of the early whispers has the Cleveland Browns
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: sniffing around. Yeah, that's uh, that would be good punishment
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: for Mike McDaniel. You've just been fired by Miami Dolphins.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: We're gonna send you not to Siberia. Cleveland, Okay, good
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: luck on that. You got no quarterback, they got a
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: bad owner. What could possibly happen there? And if you
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: believe the interweb, there are roughly seven or eight people
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: the Browns are going to hire as coach. Mike McDaniel
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: lee latest name to pop up. He does have a
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: history there. He was sentenced to a season back in
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: twenty fourteen, twelve years ago under Kyle Shanahan, who was
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: the OC in Cleveland at the time. And so the Browns,
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: he's done that, He's been there, he's been part of
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: that operation. And you can chalk that up to what
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: plausible deniability with interest you would think. Now the other question,
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: would Cleveland be a good landing spot, Well, that would
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: be a reach. That would be a reach. The one
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: positive it keeps you with a seat at the table,
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: and once you lose those gigs, it's hard to get
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: another one and you normally have to wait a while.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: And if you can hop, skip and jump in the line,
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: that would be the way to go. However, it's double jeopardy.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: If you go to Cleveland and you suck more than
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: you did in Miami, then that's it. You're destined to
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: just be a coordinator the rest of your time. That's
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: how that goes. And so he looked when the Dolphins
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: played in cold weather, which happened usually once or twice
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: a year, Mike McDaniel looked like a man trapped on
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: the Windy's menu board when you go through the drive through,
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: and what item Not the chicken sandwich, not the Nuggies? No, no, no,
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: that would be a frosty. That would be a frosty. Now,
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: imagine December on the shores of Lake I'd say January,
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: but the Browns would have to make the playoffs to
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: play in January. So a good luck, good luck. That
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: hoodie's not saving you.
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: The real answer, though, is that McDaniel, he's not gonna
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna rush. You just get an
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: offensive coordinator job on a good team. On a good team,
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: a team is gonna be a winning team. Handpicked that
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: and rehab the old resume. Do that, and then wait
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: for the right temperature in the room on the thermostat.
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: You do that, and the right owner comes a call in,
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: and you just go get an offensive coordinator job and
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: have the announcers lick your toes like Robert Salom with
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: the forty nine ers. Right, every time I watch the
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: forty nine ers play and they make a good defensive play,
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: they always show Robert Salah clap on, clap off the
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: sala And then when they make a bonhead play or
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: they get burned the forty nine or defense. I don't
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: know why they don't show Salad. It doesn't make any sense.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: I don't understand. All right, Now back to South Florida.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: What are the gambling odds on the Dolphins next coach?
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: What are the odds? So based on the percentages, I'm
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: gonna go from reverse to first. So the Broncos defensive
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: Cordner of Advance Joseph, believe it or not, is a
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: fifteen percent chance on the gambling market. The positive for
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: the Broncos is that the NFL devalues black coaches, so
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: they have to give teams that have them multiple drafting
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: Anyone think that's a good idea. By the way, I've
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: been blown away by this. They've know this for years,
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: the last few years. Anyway, where if you have a
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: minority coach and they go to a different team, the
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: team that had them gets two draft picks. This compensation,
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: which is to me, it just seems like a tremendous
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: lap in the face. I don't it's continued on anyway,
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: Robert Sala, who he coofed on because it's just ridiculous.
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: The forty nine are coverage he gets, He's a seventy
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: percent chance, same as Kevin Stefanski, the old Browns coach.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: Now then number two on the big board that would
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: be Jesse Minter, the Chargers defensive coordinator, a twenty percent chance.
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: And at number one at the very top of the board,
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: that would be Ravens' former coach, John Harbaugh at forty
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: five percent. So this is the classic combo. You've got Harball,
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: top test kitchen, Jesse Minter, and then three bags of
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: leftovers that didn't work out very well. So good luck
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: on that all right. Now, question do you buy John
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: Harbaugh as the gambling odds leader for the Miami Dolphins
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: coaching job? So I'm I'm shaking my head. No, I
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: am skeptical on this. And here's why. The Dolphins coaching
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: odds board looks like a South Beach art installation. Right.
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: It's very loud, chaotic, there's a lot going on. There's
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: some interesting stuff and it's open to interpretation. That's open
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: to interpretation. John harbaughd forty five percent. How could that be?
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: He's supposedly not talk to them. I know a lot
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: of this stuff is going on right now. They're just
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: not announcing it. They have zoom interviews and things like that,
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: but they don't talk about that stuff. And he's the
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: headline act and you know he's got the neon buzzing
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: in the window and all that stuff. I don't buy it.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: And here's why. John Harbaugh as a picky eater and
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: the Dolphins are a plate of broccoli and carrots at
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: I don't know if I want that. I want to eat,
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: but I don't know. I want the Broccolian, the cares, well,
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: why don't you want the Brocolian? The carts, Well, I'd
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: like to steak, but we serve Broccolian carts. But I
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: need a steak. Okay, we don't have that. Okay, Well,
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: then if you go to Buffalo or Philadelphia, is John
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: Harbor going to be actively rooting for certain teams to
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: lose so he can get a head coaching job in
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: one of those places? Stay tuned developing hot dot dot
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: Dot and so Miami wants him John Harbaugh more than
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: he wants Miami, it would appear. And so this is
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: what's known as a WT situation, wishful thinking with some
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: teal ink on it. Of those listed, the sharper play
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: would be, it's a starter job in Miami. So why
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: not start with jess Minter. Jesse Minter, the twenty percent odds,
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: the supposed quiet assassin. He's on the come, as they
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: say in gambling, and he's got the Michigan ties. We
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: know Steven Ross is a Michigan man. In fact, if
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: you cut him open, he bleeds maze and blue. He
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: might want to see a doctor. And then there's the
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: nostalgia Nudwicks, the nut Nicks out there pouncing around, pounding
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: the table. We want Shula, we want Shula, the Rams
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: defensive coordinator, Chris Shula. Nothing says, nothing at all says progress,
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: Like rewinding the VHS tape from back in the day
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: and the starter jacket with Don Shula and the teal jacket.
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: The teal is literally in the bloodstream of the Rams
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: defensive coordinator. Now, Don Shula was not just the godfather
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: now when he was the godfather who ran the family
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: business is what he was. And Chris Shula is just
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: kind of hanging on. There's a bit of a spotty
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: track record on the Sean McVay coaching tree. He does
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: so much. Now. The good news is Shula is a
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: defensive guy for the Rams. Imagine coaching the Dolph and
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: your grandfather was the all time winning his coach in
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: dolphin history. You think that's gonna shadow you around a
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: little bit? If me thinks it will. But what do
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: I know? What do I know?
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maler
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: Here we go, it's smaller. How about that?
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: To the third degree? This is one big Ben gets
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: grilled good.
• 33:26
  Speaker 6: With John Harbaugh getting fired, many assumed that Lamar Jackson
• 33:30
  Speaker 6: won the power struggle in Baltimore. However, a report this
• 33:33
  Speaker 6: week suggested that the Ravens could still receive offers from
• 33:36
  Speaker 6: Lamar Jackson and that they would listen. Ben, Do you
• 33:39
  Speaker 6: think there's any chance that they could still trade him?
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: Well? Yeah, of course. If somebody calls up and says,
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: I'll offer you twelve first round draft picks and you know,
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: six players or whatever, yeah, of course you'd listen. The
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: chances are not zero, but they're below two percent that
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: Lamar would be traded. No, I mean they're gonna. They
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: made their decision keeping him and hopefully he'll continue to
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: be a astonishing, breathtaking player and all that he wasn't
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: that this year next.
• 34:07
  Speaker 6: It is being reported that Bobashett is looking for a
• 34:10
  Speaker 6: contract worth three hundred million dollars.
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: So am i, Coop, I would also like that.
• 34:15
  Speaker 6: Now, there are some that think these demands are ridiculous
• 34:18
  Speaker 6: and could deter teams.
• 34:19
  Speaker 4: Do you think it will?
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: No, because the teams have money to burn and Boba
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: Schet's a good player. He's not a great player, he's
