A Historical Moment! · Armstrong & Getty One More Thing

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: It's an important historical moment. It's one more thing.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: I'm strong, and one more thing.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Before we get to some important history from a bygone era.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: The less famous Kelsey not not Taylor Swift's boyfriend, but
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: his brother Travis.
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: Jason, Yes, center for the Eagles of Philthladelphia.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Yes, retired from football yesterday. Gave an emotional press conference
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: and it got a tremendous amount of attention. So would
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: it have gotten this much attention if it hadn't been
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: for his brother dating Taylor Swift?
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: You know, I was just going to say the internet
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: meme that was so funny where gals would try to
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: convince their husbands that nobody would know who Travis Kelsey
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: is unless it was for Taylor Swift, and they would
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: get all mad and flustered because he's a famous football player.
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: That was very amusing.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: I think there's a certain amount of truth to it
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: for Jason Kelsey outside of fans of say the NFC East,
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: because he's Jason of the Eagles.
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: Who's just retiring as a hell of a football player.
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: He will be wearing the mustard yellowjacket at Kanton, Ohio
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: at some point.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: Will unless it's my team I don't usually know standout
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: centers offensive whiteman.
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I had no idea who he was.
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: And tell all of this at the risk of getting
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: all footballly is we talked on the air about a
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: few months ago whenever it was if you look at
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: the highest paid players on NFL squads, number one is
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: the quarterback. Numbers two, three, and four I believe are
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: offensive linemen. It's interesting those are the money guys. Now
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: your number one edge rusher might be in that group,
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: and then the next guy's an offensive lineman.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: But I don't doubt that, and for obvious reasons if
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: you're into sports. But I still don't usually know the
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: offensive linemen of other teams. That is AnyWho, he is
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: going to be a Hall of Famer and his brother
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: dates Taylor Swift. So anyway, you give a press conference
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: yesterday about his retiring in and got a lot of attention,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: And here's a little of how it sounded.
• 2:10
  Speaker 6: Thanks for coming, guys. We'll see how long this lasts.
• 2:20
  Speaker 6: But this all brings us here to today where I
• 2:24
  Speaker 6: announce that I am retiring. Where I announced I'm retiring
• 2:35
  Speaker 6: from the NFL after thirteen seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles.
• 2:40
  Speaker 6: I don't know what's next, but I look forward to
• 2:43
  Speaker 6: the new challenges and opportunities that await and I know
• 2:46
  Speaker 6: that I carry with me the lessons from my time here,
• 2:50
  Speaker 6: and that forever and that forever we shall all share
• 2:58
  Speaker 6: the bond of being Philadelphians.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: And it went on like that for quite some time,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: and he talked about his brother and they cried together
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: over that, and how they used to play football together
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: in the backyard and stuff like that.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Was very nice.
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: I also wonder if they put together one of those
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: big video presentations, probably before he went up there, just
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: to get him emotional, because he was pretty emotional right
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: before he even started talking, you know, and they usually
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: play some slide show or something highlights.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So I don't know any thoughts on any of
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: that before we move on.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: He seems like a really nice fellow, and I wish
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: him well. You know, being a football player has been
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: such a huge part of his identity for so long
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: it's got to be extremely difficult to walk away.
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: Although I would think.
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: The battering you take in that line of work would
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: be a pretty good push factor.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, didn't get offered a single Division I college scholarship. Wow,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: and then was a sixth round pick in the NFL,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: So didn't he He certainly didn't have Hall of Fame
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: stamped on him coming out of high school.
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: So interesting.
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: One of the other things he talked about in his
• 4:07
  Speaker 5: speech was being the underdog. Yea said that that was
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: his main thing.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: The part that's interesting to me now that I'm older,
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: is that these guys when they retire, they're like thirty something.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: So the end of a long here, let's look back
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: over at you're thirty something. I mean, I don't even
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: start looking forward in my life untill like roughly when
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: you quit a thirty six Yeah, exactly.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, which is some guys use that to
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: parlay it into a long success story, whether it's in
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: the broadcast booth, or they buy a bunch of Ford
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: dealerships or what have you.
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: Some of them crack up.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: We had an NBA player in the studio one time
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: who'd written a book about it, and he's you. Most
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: of you wouldn't know who he was. He wasn't a
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: big enough deal in the NBA, but he wrote a
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: book about the transition or something like that, and he
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: he said he was prepared for it. He knew, you know,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: man is going to be tough with and you no
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: longer go out there in the crowds cheering and blah
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: blah blah. And he said, I was prepared for it,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: and it still was devastating. It It'd be quite a change.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, not being with the Fellas anymore. It's just
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: a completely different lifestyle.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: I need to be cheered. I want non stop people
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: cheering me. I've never been cheered so.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: Or certainly a break from the derision now, right, huh,
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: people throwing stuff to ask if that came to a stop,
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: that'd be awesome.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: So we played it.
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: Maybe you'd be wait, I got a good one.
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: Maybe you'd be happier if your pants were just a
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: little looser in the critical areas.
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: That's a transition.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: So during the radio show we ended up on the
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: topic of pants. The New York Times with a hilariously
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: long article about pants and how wide pants are in
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: now and skinny pants are out, which I was it
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: was hilarious. I read quite a bit of it just
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: because I found it hilarious. How seriously they took this
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: topic and how in depth they went. In The New
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: York times about it, but anyway did We then played
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: a little clip of Lyndon Baines Johnson, president of the
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: United States from sixty three to sixty eight, talking to
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: his tailor on the phone about his pants and Katie
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: had never heard it before because Katie's new to the show. Roughly,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: how long you've been here?
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: A year?
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: Wow?
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: Time flies?
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: Yikes.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: So this is Lindon made Johnson who had his pants
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: special made by a Taylor back in Texas.
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: And LBJ was.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: A corn ponem that's actually what the Kennedy people called him,
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Colonel corn Pone to his face. That nice relationship. Anyway,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: He's from small town, Texas and he's talking to his
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: tailor about getting a new pair of pants ordered, and
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: it sounded something like this.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: Go ahead, sir, Hello, Hello, miss Tiger Ye Joe Hager, Joe,
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: your phone is the one that makes the clothes. Yet
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: there we're all together, all made me some real light
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: weight slacks. Uh uh. He just made up on his
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: own sentiment or four months ago. It's a kind of
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: a light brown and a light green, rather soft green
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: and soft brown, and the real light weight. Now I
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: need about six pears for summer were. I wanted a
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: couple of maybe three of the light brown uh, kind
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: of a almost powder color, like powder on the lady's face.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Then there was some green, and then maybe some other
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: light parts. You had a blue in that or or black? Uh?
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: To have one blue and one black. I need about
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: six pairs or way around in the evening when I
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: come in from work, and I need uh about a
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: half inch too tight and no waist, and you would
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: call it back give I didn't want it on here
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: would get him right for you. No, I don't know you.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: You all just guessed out of my things. But once
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: you have the measurements they find for I can send
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: you a pair. I want them a half inch larger
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: in the waist than the where before, except I want
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: two or three inches of stuff left back in there
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: so I can take them up. I ury ten or
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: fifteen pounds a month, all right, So leave me at
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: least two and a half third inches in the back
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: where I can let them out or take them up,
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: and make these a half inch bigger than the waist,
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: make the pockets at least an inch longer. Money, my money,
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: and my knife, everything fall out now the pockets when
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: you sit down in the chair the knife and your
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: money comes out, so I need at least another inch
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: in the pockets. Yeah. Now another thing with crutch down
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: where your nuts hang is always a little too tight.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: So when you make them up, give me an inch
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: that I can let out there. Because they cut me.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: It's just like riding a wire fence. These are almost
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: these the best that I've had anywhere in the United States.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: But when I gain a little weight, they cut me
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: under there, So leave me. You never do have much
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: margin that. But see if you can't leave me about it.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: An age from the wire to zipper ends around under
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: my back to my bunghole. All right, so I can
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: rent it out there if I need to. Now, be
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: sure you got the best zippers in them. These are
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: good that I have, and if you get those coming,
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: I would sure be grateful. Where would you like to
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: whine house?
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: There you go at a historical moment, actual phone call with
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: President of the United States.
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: Cut me like I'm shitting on a wire fencer. Oh,
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: the fact, don't.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: Leave me much margin.
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: You gotta have margin.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: The fact that he burps right before he uses the
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: word bunghole is my favorite part.
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: That is what.
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: That's one of my favorite pieces of it.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: Amazing, it's amazing. Oh, it shows you who he was.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: He was from poor Texas hill country to his bones,
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: that's what he was.
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: That's the master of the Senate right there.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: Uh huh right.
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: And it's probably worth the tip of the cap that
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: he was calling the Hagar family who became, you know,
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: one of the great clothiers of that time of history.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: About five inches right back to my bung hole.
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: Where my nuts hang. That's the best part. Not crotch,
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: you know, where my nuts. Yeah, we know what a
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: crotch is.
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: The reason people use the word crotch is so they
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: don't have to say where your nuts sang?
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: As some plain talk there, Oh can I tell you?
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: And if you're actually into you know, history and this
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: sort of stuff, the Carol book about the relationship between
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: LBJ and the Kennedy family is amazing because he just
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: heard who the guy was. That's way different than the
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: Kennedy clan.
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: The Kennedys of Harvard.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, highennas Port Kennedy's and their you know, golf
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: clubs and tennis clubs and that sort of stuff. No
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: wonder they didn't get along with and vice versa with
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: lbj oh my god, where.
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: Their patrician accents and their crisp suits and the rest
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: of it with practically no margin where they're not sang
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: or banged at the time from their bunk holes.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: No, it seems in a minimum, it's like riding a
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: rail fence.
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's just, oh, my.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: God, like something my grandfather would say, Well, that's how
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: he gained some weight back, and.
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: It cuts me, cuts me oof.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: I can't believe that they all, how many presidents allowed
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: all their phone calls to be recorded, and then when
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: when do we get to hear them all?
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: I don't know, and I don't know.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: There's got to be some great conversations there. That's a
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: good one right there. Thanks for bringing that back, Michael.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: It's historical on that history way. Yeah, we're history buffs.
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: I'd rather have the Giddisburg address, but we have that,
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: so let's appreciate what we have.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: Well, I guess that's it.
