2:02
we got a great show lined up for you today. I got a
2:06

2:37
Choice winners. We're gonna talk about a concert that I saw that's gonna be
2:40
in Kentucky, that's gonna be amazing. And then I got my Top ten
2:46
list coming up at the end of the show. So we got a big
2:50
pack show. So let's get into it. First thing we're gonna talk about
2:53
is the NFL Draft. That's right. We are two months away from the
2:58
NFL Draft. Free agency starts month, actually in a few weeks, in
3:01
the first week of March, but the NFL Draft is the big thing that
3:07
everybody's talking about. We already talked last week about NFL free agents that are
3:09
going to be on the market starting around March fifth, but we haven't talked
3:15
about the NFL Draft yet and who's going to be out there for all the
3:17
teams and who I think will end up on the Chicago Bears. So let's
3:22
go into that right now. So as everybody knows the top pick in the
3:27
draft, via the Carolina Panthers, who had the worst record in the NFL
3:31
last year, they traded the Chicago Bears in a haul package to get the
3:37
number one draft pick. To draft Bryce Young who ended up doing absolutely nothing
3:40
for them this year was the Chicago Bears. They traded Dj Moore their number
3:46
one pick for this year, and I believe in number two for next year.
3:50
There was like a few draft picks in there and everything, But so
3:53
that puts the Chicago Bears in the driver's seat again with the number one draft
3:58
pick two years in a row. Last year they traded it for a hull.
4:01
This year, we're not sure what the Bears are gonna do. Number
4:04
two is the Washington Commanders. Number three in the draft is gonna be the
4:09
New England Patriots, and then I believe Arizona Cardinals, and then so on
4:13
and so forth all the way through the draft. Bears also have a number
4:16
nine pick of their own for where they finished the season. So the Bears
4:20
are sitting pretty with two top ten draft picks this year. Most likely,
4:26
if the Chicago Bears decide to trade that pickaway, they're gonna most likely trade
4:33
to either New England or Washington. Now it could be anybody else too,
4:39
but the point of the trade is Washington is going to want that first slot
4:45
to try to get the quarterback of their choice. There is a few quarterbacks
4:48
of course that are on this list. Caleb Williams everybody knows from USC.
4:54
He was in his sophomore year. He was the Heisman Trophy winner last year.
4:59
His junior year didn't play as well as he did in his sophomore year,
5:02
and I don't believe he was even really in consideration for that Heisman Trophy
5:08
this year. But Williams has been one of college football's top playmakers for three
5:12
years. He is always a threat to advance the ball with his arms and
5:15
legs. NFL covets quarterbacks who can create on their own. No one does
5:20
that better than Caleb Williams. We're gonna see, of course, the draft
5:24
combine is next week. A lot of this could change because of write out
5:30
him being the number one prospect. That could change after the combine. The
5:33
combine is where all the scouts go to watch the players do different drills and
5:39
see what they can do on the field and everything, and that can change
5:43
their approach of who they're gonna go for with their pick. So right now,
5:47
Caleb Williams is number one, but he may not be after the combine
5:53
depending on how he They're gonna look at his stats for the season but they're
5:57
also gonna look at his combine going into the NFL. So we'll see next
6:00
week. That's gonna be an interesting week. It starts Thursday. It's gonna
6:04
be a crazy, crazy weekend for the NFL with the combine. Number two
6:11
on the list. Marvin Harrison Junior a wide receiver. Obviously, everybody knows
6:15
his dad, Marvin Harrison, who was on the Super Bowl winning Indianapolis Colts
6:20
that beat my Chicago Bears in two thousand and six. Marvin Harrison a great
6:26
wide receiver, Hall of Famer, and his son a generational talent is what
6:30
they're calling him. They're calling that to Caleb Williams two at quarterback. So
6:33
we'll see if it pans out. But I think Marvin Harrison has a higher
6:38
ceiling because of who his dad is, and I think that because he was
6:43
helped being trained by his dad. I think he is going to be that
6:46
generational wide receiver that everybody's talking about. We're gonna see, says, Imagine
6:51
if former Colts legend Marvin Harrison Senior was four inches taller and twenty pounds heavier.
6:57
That's a good way to explain his son as a prospect. Marvin Harrison
7:00
Junior's technique is beyond his years. He has a lead body, control,
7:03
reliable hands, and a wide receiver one athletic ability. Obviously, being the
7:11
namesake of Marvin Harrison is going to help him, but I don't think he
7:15
needs that. I have watched this kid play for Ohio State against Michigan,
7:19
which is my team, and he is a amazing wide receiver. And I
7:26
don't care if you're a Wolverines fan or not. If you cannot accept the
7:30
fact that he could be a Chicago Bear, I don't know what to tell
7:33
you. This kid is awesome. This kid's amazing. I don't care where
7:38
he played in college. If the Bears have a chance to get him.
7:42
I was a fan of Justin Fields coming here even though he was from Ohio
7:45
State didn't bother me. I had taken CJ. Stroud. I don't care
7:48
about that. I don't like them on the field when they play Michigan once
7:53
they go into the pros. If you're good, you want to come to
7:56
Chicago, you are more than welcome in my book. And I will buy
7:59
your jersey notture Ohio State jersey, but i'll buy your pro jersey number three
8:03
on this list. Drake May QB out of North Carolina may possess his ideal
8:09
NFL arm talent. He can hit just about any throw asked of him at
8:13
the pro level with velocity and ball placement. He still puts the ball in
8:16
harm's way with more turnovers than you'd like, but the magnitude of the good
8:22
he can do as a passer far always the band. Here's the thing that
8:24
might take on this when it comes to turnovers, and a lot of people
8:28
disagree with this, I don't care. You can email me if you disagree
8:31
with this, or follow me on socials and you can talk to me on
8:35
there. But honestly, turnovers do not always matter if you're winning, if
8:41
your team is winning out there, because everybody believes that wins and losses go
8:46
on a quarterback, which I don't fully believe in, but I get where
8:50
they're coming from. You are the leader of the team. Turnovers, depending
8:54
on if you're winning or losing, can make a difference. Okay, if
8:58
you're losing, of course, and you threw a pick at the end of
9:01
a game, yeah you're gonna get crucified for that. We all know this,
9:05
Okay, But if you're winning and you throw three touchdowns and two interceptions,
9:11
do those interceptions matter if you're winning games? You know, Brett Favre,
9:16
one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time for the Packers and one of
9:20
the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history, had a ton of picks in his career,
9:26
a ton, almost as many interceptions as he did touchdowns. But he
9:31
said, at the end of the day, they were winning divisions, they
9:35
were getting into the playoffs, they won a super Bowl. It doesn't matter.
9:39
I don't care. Look at Josh Allen, not the greatest one it
9:41
comes to turnovers, but he wins, He gets to the playoffs, and
9:46
he wins divisions. This is what counts in the NFL. Fans only care
9:52
about your turnovers when you lose. They don't care about your turnovers when you
9:56
win. If you throw one to two picks a game, but you're winning
10:03
and you're throwing three to four touchdowns in a game, I can forgive your
10:07
interceptions. Now, if your interception comes at a crucial time and you lose
10:11
because of it, even if you throw four touchdowns and two picks, that
10:15
one pick was at a bad time. That's just how it goes in the
10:18
NFL, and that's just how it is. Let's go on with the list
10:20
here. Number four wide receiver Molik Neighbors from LSU. It says, turn
10:28
on the tape and it won't take long to realize Neighbors moves differently than his
10:31
peers. His body control and route running potential are already good enough to stand
10:35
out in the pros. He's a future focal point of an NFL passing attack.
10:39
I like Melik Neighbors if we can't get Marvin Harrison. I'll talk about
10:45
the different scenarios the Bears have in the draft after I go through a few
10:48
more of these names. But Melik Neighbors I would take, and there's one
10:52
more coming up that I would take. Also, I'm only gonna go through
10:56
about ten of these because there's I mean, I might go through the list
11:01
and see if there's a few more, but really, your top ten is
11:05
what you gotta look for. If you're in the top ten in drafting,
11:07
which the Bears are one to nine, so they have a chance at two
11:11
of these picks, depending on if they trade to a team that's a little
11:15
further back. So we'll go over that. Let's see number number five tackle
11:22
Joe Alt from Notre Dame, and this is a position that we do need
11:26
on the offensive line. At six foot eight all brings elite size to offensive
11:31
tackle. He's been even better this year at using that size and length to
11:37
his advantage. Yet he maintains technique with leverage to mitigate any natural weaknesses.
11:43
He's a good tackle. I've watched tape on this kid. He will make
11:46
a difference on any offensive line he goes to, and he will make that
11:50
difference from day one as a rookie. Definitely need to look at the offensive
11:56
line. He will be gone somewhere, probably in the top ten, so
12:01
Bears, you know, have a shot at getting him. But like I
12:03
said, we're gonna go over a few scenarios that the Bears have that could
12:07
alter who they draft. Let's see number six. We don't need this in
12:13
my eyes, is not a important position that we need to utilize right now
12:16
in a draft, especially with two top ten picks. Tight End Brock Bauers
12:22
out of Georgia. Bowers has been the best tight end in college football over
12:26
the past two seasons. He might not get picked as early as Kyle Pitts,
12:30
but many think he's a better prospect because of what he could do as
12:33
a blocker in addition to his receiving ability. Now, could we use a
12:37
blocking tight end, Yes, we could, But at the same time,
12:41
I think we have more holes that we need filled in the top ten that
12:45
can make a difference on offense and possibly on defense if we can do it.
12:50
But let's see number seven. Here's another receiver that I would like if
12:54
we can't get Marvin Harrison. Junior wide receiver Roma Dunz from Washing Doonsday brings
13:01
top tiers, speed, size, and strength to the receiver position. He
13:05
is consistently dominated at the catch point this season and can reportedly run four to
13:09
three to four four at around two hundred and fifteen pounds. Definitely a big
13:15
receiver that we would love to have on the other side of Oh my gosh,
13:22
I just brain farted DJ Moore. Sorry, and because right now all
13:28
we really have is DJ Moore. We also have, of course, our
13:33
tight end col Comet, So I think we're good there, but you do
13:39
need a few more receivers. But there is a way to get two more
13:41
receivers, one as a rookie and one as a veteran, And that's through
13:46
free agency. Few good ones that we talked about last week. I wouldn't
13:48
mind having a T. Higgins here. I think he would be a good
13:52
fit as a number two receiver or as a slot receiver, depending on who
13:56
we draft. That's gonna be up in the error with the offense who they're
14:01
gonna have. I'm sure there's gonna be a fight for those three positions,
14:05
so we'll see where they go. Number eight not as important for us,
14:11
but it's cornerback. Cooper Dijon from Iowa. Dejan is one of the most
14:16
well rounded athletes in college football. He could play outside corner, he could
14:20
play slack corner and even safety due to his size six to two hundred five
14:24
pounds and speed combo. He also has some of the best ball skills of
14:30
any defensive back in the class. He's one of the draft's top playmakers.
14:33
Not I don't think we're needing that as much. I mean our corners.
14:39
We can always get somebody a free agency or later on in the draft.
14:43
These aren't necessarily all gonna go in the top ten. Obviously, there's other
14:50
players that may meet needs of other teams, so these guys could fall into
14:54
the second round. This is just where they are on here. Number nine
14:58
is tackle. I'm lend I don't even know how to say this dude's name
15:03
from Penn State. He's one of the smoothest movers we've seen in pass protection
15:07
since Tyron Smith at Joe Thomas. His tenacity in the run game could be
15:11
better, but he's a dream offensive tackle prospect for what he can do as
15:16
a pass blocker, which is a big thing we need. We could use
15:18
a run blocker, but we definitely need a pass blocker to give Justin Fields
15:24
or whoever else. It's gonna be a little more time in the pocket.
15:28
And I know Justin Fields held the ball all a while, but if he
15:31
had better blocking, he wouldn't be scrambling around like crazy and missing open guys.
15:37
So we could always use better tackles and stuff on the offensive line.
15:46
And then number ten is di It's Juwan Newton from Illinois. Newton, all
15:52
around interial or defensive lineman, is productive as both a run defender and a
15:58
pass rusher. Over All sizes on the smaller side, but his first step
16:02
and elite hand speed allow him to live in backfields. Defensive defensive line is
16:10
definitely a need of ours, but I definitely want to get a real edge
16:15
rusher before we do anything else. I think our line's pretty decent. I
16:19
think that our secondary could use a little more work. Obviously, linebacker corps
16:27
I think is I think pretty much set. I think we're good at linebackers.
16:32
You know, Edmunds and Edwards were a huge pickup for us. That's
16:37
good. Maybe one more, maybe like a middle linebacker or something, but
16:40
not in the draft. I would go maybe free agency for that. Get
16:42
some veterans in there if you're not gonna stick with who you got at middle
16:45
linebacker. Now number eleven, we got Jaden Daniels, another good quarterback out
16:52
of LSU. Daniels is a dual threat quarterback who has tons of yards from
16:57
scrimmage. Last year, he focused on taking care of the ball and had
17:00
one of the lowest turnover worthy play rates of the nation. This year,
17:03
he's focused on playing better under pressure while pushing the ball down field more often,
17:08
and he's done both at career high levels. His growth in all areas
17:14
is encouraging and shows that he could be a QB to invest in. I
17:18
would be happy with him too, depending on how we go with the quarterback
17:22
round. Let's see, here's one that I want to look at. If
17:27
you're the Bears from Alabama edge Dallas Turner. Turner entered twenty twenty three as
17:33
one of the class best speed rushing three four outside linebackers, but this year
17:38
he looks like he has bulked up a bit and to add new strength to
17:42
his game and solidify his first round status. He's gonna be good. I
17:48
would look at him at number nine, and let's see. I think that's
17:52
pretty much it that I'm gonna look at. Well, actually, I got
17:56
two more. Hold on. I don't. I don't think this guy's gonna
18:00
go in the first round, but he might. Quarnerback Kool Aid McKinstry from
18:06
Alabama. Mckinnistry has shut down CB one potential for schemes that rely on more
18:11
man coverage. He's very comfortable playing in press and with his back to the
18:17
ball. Plus, he has one of the highest forced incompletion totals in the
18:19
country over the past two seasons. I would look at him for a second
18:23
round. I wouldn't look at him for the first round, but I would
18:26
possibly look at his Adam not just because his name is cool Kool aid that's
18:30
pretty cool, but you could always use another corner all the time. So
18:37
depending on what we get in the first round and what we get through free
18:41
agency. Remember free agency comes before the draft, so sometimes you could get
18:45
a better thing out of the first round. And then my last one that
18:49
I want to look at is or to actually I just found one more.
18:53
QB Michael Penick Junior. Pennix is a bit of a college football journeyman,
18:59
but his lady the scoreboard in twenty twenty three. His combination of experience and
19:03
high end arm talent is propelling him. He has a bit of an unorthodox
19:07
throwing style from his lower body mechanics to his throwing motion, but can sling
19:11
it. He'd be a good possible project. And then we got QB Bo
19:18
Nicks out of Oregon. Overwhelming Bonnicks we knew from Auburn seems long gone nowadays,
19:23
Knicks is as good as dual threat athlete with a legit NFL arm.
19:29
Most importantly, he's playing much better under pressure, even if it isn't pressured
19:33
as often. He does have a really good offensive line, which is something
19:38
that he could struggle with in Chicago if he became a Bear because we know
19:44
our offensive line isn't good. But if we improve our line, then there's
19:48
a good chance. And then I'm looking for one more. But he's very
19:52
low on the list. Actually, I don't even need it. I watched
19:56
him all year. JJ McCarthy good quarterback. I don't think JJ McCarthy goes
20:02
in the first round. I am a huge Michigan Wolverine fan, but I
20:07
don't think he goes in the first round. I just don't. He's good,
20:12
but I don't think he's good enough for that. There's a lot of
20:17
good quarterbacks in this class that I would take over McCarthy. Obviously, Caleb
20:21
Williams. He is number one in the nation for a reason as of now,
20:26
before next week with the combine, but I would definitely take a look
20:30
at even Michael Pennix, Junior bow Knicks, Drank May. These are all
20:37
guys that I would look at if the Bears are going quarterback. Now,
20:41
the Bears have a couple different options with what they can do. Number one,
20:48
they have to decide is Justin Field's the guy for next year. If
20:51
he's the guy, then you know what you're doing with the number one pick.
20:55
You're either gonna draft Marvin Harrison Junior with number one, which would throw
21:00
off the entire NFL because I don't think anybody's expecting the number one pick to
21:04
be a wide receiver. And it would be great if the Bears did it.
21:08
We all know if the Bears aren't going to stick with Justin Fields,
21:11
they are going for Marvin Harrison Junior. That is hands down what they're gonna
21:15
do. But are they gonna do it with the number one pick? Because
21:21
if I'm the Bears and I know I have leverage and you know that that
21:23
draft quarterback class is stacked, Obviously Washington and New England prefer most likely as
21:33
of now, depending on what happens on the combine, everybody wants Caleb Williams.
21:38
If they're going to draft a quarterback, people will fight for Caleb Williams.
21:44
Now, will people take a Drake May at number two or the second
21:48
guy gone out as a quarterback? Of course, Drake May is amazing.
21:52
He's just as good, I think as Caleb Williams, maybe better than Caleb
21:56
Williams. Could Bo Nixby as good? Could Michael PENNOCKX Junior be as good?
22:02
Yeah? They could. But obviously the number one pick of quarterbacks is
22:11
most likely gonna be Caleb Williams. It's either gonna be to the Bears or
22:15
Washington or New England. One of those two teams will trade the Bears for
22:19
a haul. All I want is your number two pick from Washington and then
22:25
a few extra picks and then maybe a player if you could throw somebody decent
22:30
in. We already know we fleeced Washington for Montese Sweat. That was an
22:36
amazing trade. That was to me as good as the DJ Moore trade because
22:41
we got a big defensive guy and then we also got a big wide receiver.
22:45
With Dj Moore, Ryan Poles has fleeced two teams out of two really
22:52
good players. If we could trade and get that number two pick for our
22:59
number one pick and let Washington have his their pick of quarterback, we could
23:04
end up with Marvin Harrison Junior and about three or four more draft picks from
23:10
Washington. That would be amazing. If we can maybe squeeze out a first
23:15
round or for next year, and let's say Caleb Williams plays for them and
23:18
chokes like everybody still like a lot of people think he might generational, Yeah,
23:25
a lot of people are generational. Nobody said Patrick Mahomes was generational,
23:30
and he was so usually the guys who they say are generational at quarterback usually
23:34
aren't. People. Remember, these same critics who want Caleb Williams to be
23:41
generational are the same ones who said Mitch Trubisky would be better than Patrick Mahomes.
23:47
I was hoping he would be because we ended up with them, but
23:51
he wasn't. And as much as I love Mitch and to this day,
23:56
I still feel that Mitch could have been a better quarterback elsewhere. I think
24:00
if Mitch would have went to Kansas City, he would have been just as
24:02
good as Mahomes because he would have had Andy Reid, he would have had
24:07
a staff that knew how to train a quarterback. Because I don't think that
24:14
Mahomes would have played as Mahomes in Chicago, I really don't. I think
24:21
Naggi would have killed him in Chicago, just like he did to Mitch Trubisky
24:26
and to Justin Fields. Naggi could take some This is why possibly the Chicago
24:32
Bears may get rid of Justin Fields, because when Poles came in here,
24:41
Poles wanted to clean house of anything that Ryan Pace brought in coaching staff,
24:48
players or whatever. Unless they were amazing players. He's not gonna get up
24:52
rid of amazing just to be a GM that builds his own team. He
24:57
wasn't, but has just been amazing enough for them to keep them. Probably
25:03
not. So there's a chance that, yes, we could end up with
25:07
a new quarterback under center next year. And maybe it could be. It
25:14
could be a free agent, could be somebody like a Kirk Cousins, who's
25:18
a guaranteed guy that can get you thirty five hundred and four thousand yards on
25:25
a season. He doesn't get hurt in like last year. And believe me,
25:27
anybody who says he's injury prone, just stop it. It's an achilles
25:32
terr It can happen to anybody. I've worked with people at Amazon that have
25:36
torn their achilles at work. It could happen to anybody. Is he a
25:41
little more susceptible maybe because he's thirty five. Possibly, But I'll take that
25:48
risk because if we get a Kirk Cousins, then you do draft a quarterback,
25:52
but you don't necessarily have to draft at number one. You could draft
25:59
a quarterback like Bo Nicks. You could draft a quarterback like Michael Pennocks junior.
26:07
You possibly could even draft uh JJ McCarthy because what the Bears need if
26:15
they draft Kirk Cousins or any veteran quarterback like that, do not draft a
26:19
quarterback first round. Wait till the second or third round, see who's left,
26:23
and draft one of them, because what you're gonna need is you gotta
26:27
get him another receiver, because he's not gonna have enough with Dj Moore here.
26:33
Even though he's a better quarterback and he's a veteran, you still need
26:36
somebody better. So you're gonna have to get a Marvin Harrison junior. You're
26:41
gonna have to draft a Roma Duze, you know, somebody like that,
26:45
or go T Higgins and free agency. If you get somebody like that.
26:51
I don't think the Bears go veteran, but it would be amazing to have
26:56
a veteran quarterback with a rookie who he can mold into a quarterback. And
27:03
this is how Green Bay did it. Rogers behind Farv Love behind Rogers Boom
27:11
good quarterbacks in New England, Brady behind Oh my gosh, see i'm having
27:22
brain farts today. Hold on one second, let me think for a second.
27:26
So Brady sat behind Drew Bledsoe was amazing, Alex Smith was in front
27:32
of my homes. There you go, veteran quarterbacks, you don't have to
27:37
be great to mold the quarterback. You just have to say, kid,
27:41
watch me play, watch my good things, watch my bad stuff. That's
27:45
how you become an NFL quarterback. So I would be for that. I
27:48
don't think the Bears go that route. I don't think they want a veteran.
27:52
I think they want a rookie who they can get on a cheap rookie
27:55
deal like Fields was on, and just throw them out there. Let's say,
28:00
go out there, kid. You know, not Tyson Beagent, Beijent
28:07
won't be I don't even think Beijen's gonna be a Bear, I think for
28:11
long. I think he'll be here this year, but I don't think he's
28:14
gonna be here for long. I think the Bears could go route of getting
28:18
maybe like an older veteran QB to be a backup for their rookie, just
28:26
in case he gets hurt or something. But I don't think we're going to
28:30
end up with a big time quarterback. I doubt that's gonna happen. So
28:37
you know, we'll see what happens the drafts coming up? Free agencies first,
28:41
we'll see next week at the combine. What happens. A lot of
28:45
NFL news coming up, We'll be talking about it in the next two months.
28:48
But let's move on now. Let's talk about something different. Cubs and
28:52
Socks report. Not much there, just wanted to throw that out there.
28:56
In fact, the Cubs playing Socks play there first game today, but by
29:02
the time you hear this, it'll be over. But they do also play
29:04
tomorrow the Socks if you're a Sox fan, and I believe the Cubs do
29:07
tomorrow too, But yeah, so definitely check that out if you're a Cubs
29:12
and Socks fan. But yeah, the game, you could probably watch the
29:17
replay tonight. If you're just finding out that the game is tonight, you
29:19
could watch the replay of it later on tonight. If you're a Cubs or
29:23
Socks fan, I'm sure they'll show it. But another major to report.
29:26
The only big thing is Tim Anderson, the former White Sox player signed with
29:33
the Miami Marlins. I'm a huge Ta fan. I will still probably wear
29:38
his Southside jersey that I have because I'm a fan of his and I'm sad
29:42
that he's gone, but then again, his stats were not that great last
29:47
year, so I can see why they had to get rid of them.
29:49
But at the same time, it's sad to see veterans go, and I
29:53
believe that you need veterans in there to help the young kids. But obviously
29:57
the Socks thing differently than I do. But that's okay. Conder Bernard has
30:03
been back for now about two weeks. He's been on fire. He's got
30:08
a couple of goals and a bunch of assists since he's been back. Conder
30:14
Bernard was great. I did see one thing that made me happy, and
30:18
this is gonna make people scratch their head. But I am glad that the
30:21
Hawks are last place again because now we will have the number one draft pick
30:25
two years in a row. And the last time that we were able to
30:30
get two good draft picks, we got Caine and Taves back to back years,
30:34
and that was when we ended up going out a tear and winning three
30:37
Stanley Cups. So if we can get one more rookie sensation to go with
30:41
Connor Bedard and then build around them with some veteran players and maybe some other
30:48
young rookies, we can make this team almost exactly like two ten Chicago Blackhawks,
30:55
not as good as them. I don't think we're ever gonna have a
30:57
Hawks team as good as they were, but it would still be great to
31:02
see us win championship. But yeah, Connor Bard's back. I'm happy with
31:07
the rookie year that he's had so far, and he's only got what about
31:11
a month month and a half left before the season's over to you know,
31:15
really turn some heads. I would like the Hawks to keep losing some games
31:19
so we keep that number one spot at least get a top three draft pick.
31:22
You know, maybe not number one, but even top three in my
31:26
book, would be really good. So I'm hoping that happens. Right,
31:30
Let's move on to our next topic, WWE Elimination Chamber. Yes, that
31:37
is tomorrow and it is an early one if you're in the United States.
31:41
If you're in Australia where it is at in Perth, then you know what
31:48
you're not you're watching it at night like a normal pay per view. But
31:51
if you're in the United States, it's gonna be crazy. So let's go
31:55
into some stuff about that really quick. The next stop on the road WrestleMania
32:00
is gonna be Elimination Chamber. Of course, SmackDown is tonight, but some
32:05
of you may have seen some spoilers already. That's because they were gonna be
32:08
in Australia this week, so they've pre taped SmackDown from last week. So
32:15
last week they filed two Spackdowns, so the fans that were there got to
32:20
see two tapings, the live and then a taped one for this week.
32:22
So that's pretty cool. So the next big stop on the Road to WrestleMania
32:29
goes through OPTAs Stadium in Perth, Australia, and that is tomorrow, February
32:35
twenty fourth. If you're in the United States, it will start at five
32:38
am Eastern time, So yes, we have to get up, just like
32:43
the people in the UK have to get up for our pay per views.
32:45
We will get to see what it's like to be in the UK and watch
32:50
a pay per view that early. Now, me myself, I'm not getting
32:53
up to watch that. I will watch it later in the day. I
32:55
actually had my friend coming over and he's gonna watch it with me. We're
33:00
gonna watch it at five at night because honestly, we're not getting up that
33:04
early. So I'm gonna have to stay away from social media a little bit
33:07
tomorrow so I don't see any major spoilers. You could watch it, of
33:13
course, on Peacock anytime tomorrow, from five am Eastern all the way through
33:17
the day. If you want to watch it at night like a normal pay
33:21
per view, or in the afternoon, you can even get up and have
33:23
an eleven o'clock brunch and watch it because it should be done. My guess
33:30
is three four hours, So if it starts at five am Eastern, should
33:34
be over by like nine am Eastern. Probably that's four hours. So yeah,
33:39
so definitely check that out. Here's the matches for tomorrow. They did
33:44
add a tag team match for the tag women's tag titles. The Kabookie Warriors
33:49
are gonna face Indy Hardwell and her partner. I don't even know who they
33:52
are, honestly, they must be on with NXT or something because I never
33:57
see them, but they're gonna face it. Indy Hartwell is from Australia,
34:01
so that's a big reason that she got thrown into that match. But here's
34:07
the card for tomorrow. During the main card, only four matches are gonna
34:10
be on the card, which is that's all really you, Neique, because
34:15
the two elimination chamber matches are at least they're gonna be an hour apiece almost.
34:21
So you got the women's elimination Chamber match, Becky Lynch, Bianca bell
34:24
Air, Live Morgan, Naomi, Tiffany Stratton, and Raquel Rodriguez. Now
34:31
I heard that Raquel's name got changed now to the Gonzales, so that's something
34:37
to watch tomorrow when they announced her, but the Triple H didn't announce Gonzales,
34:43
so yes, I guess they changed their name. I don't understand name
34:45
changes, especially with the normal name. I don't understand that. What's the
34:49
point. But I am picking in this match. I think Becky Lynch wins.
34:54
Honestly, I think her road to WrestleMania, she's gonna want to be
35:00
the main title match, and I think her and Rio Ripley will be amazing.
35:04
If that's how they go, We'll see what happens with that. But
35:07
my pick tomorrow for that will be Becky Lynch undisputed WW Tag Team Championship Match,
35:15
The Judgment Day, Damian Priest and Finn Balor versus Pete Dunn and Tyler
35:20
Bait. Obviously, I think Judgment Day walks out with the tag titles.
35:23
I don't think they lose it at Elimination Chamber. I think that they're gonna
35:27
lose it, possibly at WrestleMania. Well, we'll talk more about that later
35:32
on. But like before WrestleMania, Women's World Championship Match, Rio Ripley the
35:39
hometown girl, She's from Australia. She's gonna get a huge ovation defending her
35:45
title against Naya Jacks. I'm going, obviously with Ryan Ripley. I think
35:51
Nia Jacks has just thrown in there to put her in a match. They
35:53
needed a big match for her, and who bigger than Nia Jacks. Nia
35:58
Jackson is a good wrestler and I think that it's gonna be a decent one
36:04
and Real Ripley's gonna get the big championship win in front of her home crowd.
36:08
Men's Elimination Chamber match Drew McIntyre versus Randy Orton, versus Bobby Lashley,
36:15
versus ell A Night Yeah, versus Kevin Owens, and versus Logan Paul.
36:22
Every single person in this match could win. I'm gonna pick Drew McIntyre though,
36:29
because of the storyline with him as Seth Rollins is going to be amazing.
36:32
But now Seth Rollins is in two storylines going into WrestleMania, so it's
36:37
gonna be crazy. Seth Rollins is gonna have a very big part in WrestleMania.
36:43
We're gonna talk about that in a second. But yeah, so I'm
36:45
picking Drew McIntyre. I think he has the most to win in this because
36:52
of his winning at WrestleMania. During COVID he didn't get in front of the
36:55
crowd, and I do believe he does face South Rollins and beats them at
37:00
russell Mania. South Rollins has definitely taken some time off to heal some injuries
37:04
after Mania. He's been a workhorse with that title and he definitely deserves some
37:09
time off now. The other big thing and another hometown boy that's going to
37:16
have a thing at Elimination Chamber is, of course, Australia's own Grayson Waller.
37:27
The Grayson Waller Effect is going to be live in Perth, Australia tomorrow
37:31
with guests Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins. Will the Rock be there, we
37:38
don't know. He made a funny speech the other day on his TikTok and
37:45
it kind of opened the door for him possibly being in Perth. But we'll
37:49
see. But yes, they are going to be out there because The Rock
37:52
did tell Grayson Waller and the referees and the fans that if Cody Rhodes and
37:57
his little girlfriend South Rollins as Rock, go watch that on TikTok. Go
38:01
follow Dwayne the Rock Johnson on TikTok. He is taking his character and moving
38:07
it over to TikTok. It's great. He was wearing a Versace shirt and
38:12
everything, and he did say on there, if Cody Rhodes and his little
38:15
girlfriend make any comments about The Rock, He's going to get on a plane
38:21
and before that interview is over, he's gonna show up in Perth and lay
38:23
the SmackDown. Could The Rock be there tomorrow, That's a possibility. Who
38:29
knows. We won't know until that, but that Grayson Waller effect's gonna be
38:34
good. And that is where I believe Cody and Seth are going to lay
38:37
down a challenge to The Rock and Roman for Night one of WrestleMania. Now,
38:43
if that happens, that means that Roman reigns, Cody Rhoads, and
38:46
Seth Rollins all will be wrestling twice because Roman that weekend Night one. I
38:54
believe that they're gonna kick off Night one with Seth and Drew. I think
39:00
Seth and Drew or could they start with the tag team match with The Rock
39:08
and Roman versus Cody and Seth and then and the night with Cody with Seth
39:15
losing. We already know Night two's main event is going to be Cody and
39:21
Roman. They've already said it. Now Here's what I feel is gonna happen.
39:27
The Rock is going to turn on Roman at WrestleMania in Night two.
39:31
He's going to help Cody win it by attacking the Bloodline. They are going
39:36
to get involved, just like they always do. Jimmy Usso solo and everybody's
39:43
gonna think The Rock is gonna do it too, and he's not. He's
39:46
gonna end up turning on them unless they do something crazy with the bloodline and
39:55
bring in the Rock's daughter and the Rock. Could you imagine the Bloodline being
40:02
the Rocks daughter, the Rock, Roman, Jimmy Usso, maybe Jay Uso
40:08
turns back. Who knows. They could really go somewhere with this. It's
40:14
gonna be a crazy WrestleMania season. But this does lead to a tag team
40:19
match at WrestleMania. I think the Rock and Roman taken on Cody and Seth
40:24
night one and then Cody. Of course, Seth is gonna have to defend
40:28
his title in Night one also, so he's either gonna have to kick off
40:31
and end the show somehow. So I'm thinking Seth maybe loses to Drew and
40:37
then him and Cody win, so at least he gets the send off of
40:40
a win and a loss on one night, and then Cody the next night
40:45
gets his big I believe Cody's gonna win that title though, and that's gonna
40:49
lead to the Rock and Roman. Maybe the Rocks daughter comes down and everybody
40:54
thinks, oh my gosh, he's gonna join the bloodline, and then her
40:57
and the Rock turn on Roman together. It would be great father and daughter.
41:01
Can you imagine that helping Cody win the title. You couldn't write a
41:06
story ending like that and ending to Cody's story and a new chapter beginning Cody
41:10
as a champion. Everybody said, what happens when a story ends? What
41:15
happens if he wins, he starts a new chapter, He starts a new
41:17
book. What do authors do when they write a book and it ends,
41:22
they write another one. So his story, he will end the story which
41:27
is his dad never getting the title. Now he starts the story of him
41:30
being the champion and doing what his father couldn't do. So that's what I
41:36
believe is gonna happen, all right, So tomorrow, don't forget to check
41:38
out Elimination Chamber. It is early on the East Coast five am Central time,
41:44
four am, So if you're up that early, check it out.
41:46
If not, check it out anytime during the day tomorrow. Of course,
41:50
I'll be showing replays of it all day long. Peacocks will check that out.
41:54
Now we're gonna talk about the NBA All Star Game. There was good
41:58
and there was bad in it. I'm gonna talk about that right now.
42:02
So last week was NBA All Star Weekend. It was a weekend full of
42:07
different events. He had the Three Point Contest, Slam Dunk Contest, Rising
42:09
Stars, Skills Challenge, Shooting Stars, GLI League, All Star Game,
42:15
he had the All Star Game MVPs, and then of course he had Steph
42:19
Curry facing I forgot what her name was. She's from the w NBA,
42:23
and they had a three point competition. Steph Curry won it. But it
42:28
was really fun and hopefully they bring it back and do something like that again.
42:31
It was really cool. But let's kick it off with talk about the
42:35
three Point Contest really quick. Damian Lillard had an amazing game, amazing weekend.
42:43
He won the three Point Contest for the second year in a row.
42:46
He was amazing, just like he always is. So he was the winner
42:51
of that and that was his second time. He did it last year with
42:53
the Trailblazers and then this year he did it as a buck So that was
42:59
pretty amazing. So let's go on to the Slam Dunk competition. The slam
43:05
Dunk contest winner was, of course back to back again was Matt McClung who
43:09
did it last year and this year with the seventy six ers. He did
43:14
win that back to back, which was amazing. That was good for him.
43:17
I was excited for him. He was good, he had some good
43:20
stuff, and he's G League. That's the crazy thing. He's a G
43:23
League player. I was just like, what, how does that happen?
43:29
But yeah, so let's go on to the next one. Rising Stars Competition.
43:42
Team Jalen won twenty six to thirteen over Team Debt left Shremph. The
43:49
MVP of that was Benedict Mayhern from the Pacers hometown boy. Because it was
43:53
in Indianapolis, so it's cool that they got to see that skills challenge the
43:59
winners. So that was Team Pacers, so the Pacers fans got to see
44:02
that we're there, got to see their team represented and winning two of them,
44:07
the skills contest and then the other one. But yeah, so Team
44:12
Pacers won that one. That was a skills competition shooting stars. Let's see.
44:25
Oh, that's weird, so it doesn't say anything about this year.
44:31
Well, I guess that don't matter. That's not on here. And then
44:36
the G League All Star Game was also that weekend. It's weird and it
44:43
doesn't say anything about this year, so we'll just go on and then let's
44:47
cover the NBA All Star Game. So the NBA All Star Game this year,
44:52
the MVP was Damian Lillard. So Damian Lillard won not only the three
44:55
point competition, but he was also the MVP of the All Star All Star
45:00
Game was won by the East to eleven to one eighty six. Come on,
45:07
guys, and this has been talked about all over sports this whole week.
45:13
Why do you even have an All Star game? I don't want to
45:16
see a glorified horse game, Okay, I don't. I really I would
45:22
take NFL flag football at the Pro Bowl overseeing no defense at all played in
45:29
an NBA All Star Game, because at least in the flag football game,
45:32
people were trying to defend, even without pads on. They were at least
45:37
trying to get there. They were making it look like a good game.
45:43
This was pathetic. I don't want to see this ever again. This is
45:46
horrible. I don't understand why the NBA does this, Like, why do
45:50
you allow these players to go out and play no defense and just go and
45:53
let them shoot around. It's a glorified shoot around. You go to a
45:59
bulls practice and see this, Like, at least the practices for the teams
46:05
probably play harder defense on each other than what we saw in that game.
46:08
Two eleven should never happen in the NBA game, even the All Star Game.
46:14
Come on, guys, what was the over under on this game?
46:16
Because it had to be way over. Next year they're probably going to have
46:22
the over under of four hundred, because I mean, they put up two
46:27
eleven and one to eighty six. So I mean, you're looking at three
46:31
ninety three hundred and ninety seven points between two teams. I knew the math
46:39
pretty quick on that too. I was looking at it while I was talking.
46:43
But yeah, three hundred and ninety seven points. So the over under
46:47
is probably gonna be four hundred next year. But this is pathetic. I
46:52
hope that maybe next year these guys get together and say, you know what,
46:57
let's watch some nineties Filma All Star games. Let's play like they did.
47:00
Let's go out there and have a good game and not get hurt.
47:02
But let's go out there and have fun. But let's play hard against each
47:06
other. Let's actually make this a real contest, not just a glorified big
47:12
shoot around where everyone just shoots from half court and just does all this weird
47:15
stuff. It really turned me off to wanting to watch an NBA All Star
47:21
game, and I wasn't even home for it. I work on Sunday,
47:22
so I didn't get to see it live. I saw like just video of
47:27
it, and even just watching the video made me sick to my stomach because
47:30
I'm like, this is terrible. I don't want to see this kind of
47:35
thing. I want to see teams go out there and play to win.
47:39
But I'm happy for Damian Lillard getting to win the three point competition and then
47:44
of course winning the what's it called? Then he won the thing, so
47:52
it was nice to see him win the MVP and the three point competition.
47:58
All right, let's move on now to something better than that crabby All Star
48:02
Game. Frankie Munez. If everybody remembers Frankie Munez, he was from the
48:08
show Malcolm in the Middle, and he's also been in other things too,
48:13
And he was in his first ever race for NASCAR, using the Daytona five
48:21
hundred. It was pretty cool to know that he was in there. I
48:23
didn't get to see it because it was Monday night because it got moved because
48:28
of the rain. But yeah, he ended up finishing number thirty out of
48:32
thirty five cars. It's pretty good, but it says he's no rookie in
48:40
a traditional sense. He's far older than the majority of drivers he's competing against.
48:45
For example, he's double the age of Sammy Smith, the reigning Exfinity
48:50
Series Rookie of the Year, so he is technically a rookie. But yeah,
48:54
so he finished in the United Rentals three hundred. At the Daytona he
49:01
got caught in that thirty seventh lap wreck or that thirty seventh lap of the
49:08
one twenty with that wreck, and he ended his race early. But he
49:13
ended up fishing and finishing thirty three out of thirty eight. So not too
49:16
bad for Frankie Munez. I'm excited for him. I don't have results from
49:21
the Daytona five hundred, but you know, hold on, let me look
49:25
it up really quick. I'll tell you who won it, all right,
49:28
So the winner of the Daytona five hundred was William Byron. He won it
49:32
this year. So that who won the Daytona five hundred, and that kicks
49:37
off NASCAR season, and so I know all the NASCAR fans are excited.
49:42
I watch it here and there. Not a huge fan of it, but
49:44
I'll watch it when there's really not much on on a Sunday, which right
49:47
now, with football being over, there really isn't much on. So yes,
49:52
I will definitely watch it here and there when I can. But yeah,
49:54
so I'm excited Frankie Munez. I hope he does pretty well this season,
50:00
obviously, finishing thirty third out of thirty eight. Not the greatest,
50:04
but for a rookie actor who's now a NASCAR driver, not bad at all.
50:08
I'm proud of him. So I used to watch Malcolm in the Middle.
50:10
It was a pretty decent show. So let's move on now to the
50:16

1:07:01
Next week, we're gonna have some fun on the show. We're gonna
1:07:03
talk more NFL news. We're gonna talk about different things in sports. There's
1:07:09
not a lot of sports going on right now. Nothing good. I know,
1:07:13
the Rock starts his new league. I'll have the results from Elimination Chamber,
1:07:17
and then of course Oscars are coming up I believe in March, so
1:07:20
we'll talk about those soon. Oh wait, ope, almost forgot my top
1:07:26
ten list. This is an out of WWE doing their Elimination Chamber this week.
1:07:30
My top ten WWE wrestlers of all time. Okay, so, like
1:07:35
we always do, this is my list. This isn't a list that's already
1:07:39
done. These are picked by me. If you disagree, you can email
1:07:43
me down below in my the thing that tells about my show, all my
1:07:48
informations in there. You can follow me on all the social media's you could
1:07:53
follow. You could email me any ideas your top ten lists, and if
1:07:58
you give me a good email, I'll read it online. I had a
1:08:00
hater that keeps emailing me. He don't really like me, but he listens
1:08:04
to the show, So that's okay. Keep hating, hater. I'm not
1:08:10
gonna even give your name out because you're just a giant hater. But it's
1:08:14
cool. But here we go. My top ten be wrestlers of all time.
1:08:16
Number ten, Roman Reigns, number nine, Warrior, number eight,
1:08:21
John Cena. That's a shock. I think a lot of people would think
1:08:25
John Cena would be top five, but he's actually not to me. Number
1:08:29
seven, Chris Jericho. These are older and current, so it's not just
1:08:33
now. Let's see number six Hulk Hogan. Number five is the Rock,
1:08:40
number four Triple h Number three is HBK. Number two Stone Cold Steve Austin,
1:08:45
and my number one favorite wrestl of all time is The Undertaker. A
1:08:48
lot of people would think that in my top five would be John Cena,
1:08:51
The Rock, Stone Cold will be number one or number two or his number
1:08:57
two. But honestly, the Undertaker was always my favorite. I love the
1:09:00
Undertaker from the day he debuted with the weird like bags under his eyes,
1:09:04
all red and stuff. It was awesome. Triple H comes before the Rock.
1:09:09
For me, I always loved Triple H. I always play the game.
1:09:13
HBK, mister WrestleMania always in my top three. Brett to hev Man
1:09:17
Heart would be probably if you're saying, where's Brett Hart, he'd be probably
1:09:21
number eleven or twelve on the list. He was a whiner, he was
1:09:26
a cry baby. I wasn't a big fan of his that way. I
1:09:29
love Brett Hart at certain points in his career, but not his whole career.
1:09:34
I love Triple H as a bad guy. I love Hbk's a bad
1:09:39
guy, Stone Cold, the Rock, Undertaker when they were bad, Hulk
1:09:42
Hogan as Hollywood Hogan, Jericho, John Cena as a heel, he was
1:09:46
awesome. Brett Hart was whiny and cry baby ish. I didn't like it.
1:09:50
So that's my list. Let me know what your list is. I
1:09:53
will see everybody next week. The show is almost seventy minutes long. I'll
1:09:58
see everybody next week. Make sure you. I'm also gonna have the Top
1:10:01
thirty Villains of TV next week, so we'n have some fun with that.
1:10:04
And I'm gonna tell you what's coming to Hulu, Netflix, HBO, Max
1:10:10
and all that in the month of March, so we'll talk about that next
1:10:13
week too. I will see everybody next week. Stay safe, stay out
1:10:16
there, stay safe, stay healthy, and don't die. I'll see everybody
1:10:19
next week. Peace,
