Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Yeah, that Chuck Norris was chasing the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
- 0:05Speaker 2: The Rex was not chasing the Jeep. Murray!
- 0:08Speaker 3: Murray, you there?
- 0:10Speaker 2: You love sandwiches, huh? Let's go to 80. His name
- 0:14Speaker 2: is Bo.
- 0:16Speaker 1: Wow.
- 0:16Speaker 2: That's prime time, baby. I had a crush on Betty Rubble.
- 0:19Speaker 1: I honestly, until after the segment ended and we went
- 0:22Speaker 1: to commercial break, had no idea that Jonathan Coachman was black.
- 0:25Speaker 1: He cost them the game last night. Although they won
- 0:28Speaker 1: the game. You're listening to Stugatz & Company. It is
- 0:32Speaker 1: Stugatz & Company presented by FanDuel and the FanDuel Sportsbook
- 0:35Speaker 1: with Stugatz & Hop is coming up in hour number two,
- 0:39Speaker 1: set two. But yesterday, I get a text, me and Taylor,
- 0:44Speaker 1: from Mikey A., who was at home watching soccer. He
- 0:47Speaker 1: took a picture of his television screen. I forgot what
- 0:50Speaker 1: he texted us, but it was his day. It's his
- 0:53Speaker 1: soccer day. We did a quiz last week. And now
- 0:55Speaker 1: Mikey has his favorite soccer team. I have my favorite
- 0:58Speaker 1: soccer team. I forget what the name of my team is.
- 1:00Speaker 1: But you had a day yesterday, Mikey, eh?
- 1:04Speaker 4: First off, come on the Chels. That's what you texted us.
- 1:09Speaker 1: Yes.
- 1:12Speaker 5: I had my first glimpse into a winning culture on weekends.
- 1:18Speaker 4: And this was nice.
- 1:20Speaker 5: Even though it was Monday, I consider it to be.
- 1:22Speaker 5: the Monday night football of the soccer slate.
- 1:25Speaker 2: So the Chelsea one, huh?
- 1:27Speaker 5: The Chelsea didn't just win. They looked dominant, right? They
- 1:30Speaker 5: won three to two. They, they overcame an early equalizer. Um,
- 1:35Speaker 5: and they, they, they were there, this new guy they
- 1:38Speaker 5: got like he's, he's something else. He kicks the ball
- 1:42Speaker 5: in the net. Unlike anyone else I've ever seen.
- 1:44Speaker 2: Yes, this new guy, right?
- 1:47Speaker 3: So what I appreciate here is Mikey's buy-in level is
- 1:52Speaker 3: at an all-time high right now.
- 1:54Speaker 2: I can tell.
- 1:55Speaker 4: New guy.
- 1:55Speaker 2: He couldn't have.
- 1:56Speaker 3: Gotten a better first result for Chelsea because I texted Mikey.
- 2:00Speaker 3: I said, hey, I just want to prepare you. Winning
- 2:03Speaker 3: on the road in the Premier League, it's tough at times.
- 2:07Speaker 3: They're going to Fulham. They're going to Craven Cottage. You
- 2:10Speaker 3: don't just go to Craven Cottage and come out. a victor,
- 2:13Speaker 3: even though it's like two miles down the road from,
- 2:15Speaker 3: from Chelsea.
- 2:16Speaker 2: Right. But it's a, you know, it's a fortress. It's
- 2:18Speaker 2: a different part of town.
- 2:19Speaker 4: Right.
- 2:20Speaker 2: I know. Listen, it's only separated by two miles, but
- 2:22Speaker 2: you would never know it.
- 2:24Speaker 3: And then Chelsea gets the early goal, like Mikey mentioned.
- 2:27Speaker 3: And I'm like, wow, Mikey must be buzzing. And then I,
- 2:30Speaker 3: I couldn't imagine how quickly he flatlined when, when Fulham equalized,
- 2:34Speaker 3: but Chelsea at the very least this season, Chelsea is
- 2:38Speaker 3: going to be interesting because they have so many attacking
- 2:40Speaker 3: options moving forward. And the guy that Mikey's talking about,
- 2:44Speaker 3: Morgan Rogers, that they brought over.
- 2:46Speaker 2: The new guy.
- 2:47Speaker 1: Man.
- 2:48Speaker 3: They brought him over from Aston Villa.
- 2:49Speaker 6: Right.
- 2:50Speaker 3: From Stu's team.
- 2:51Speaker 2: Oh, that's my team. What?
- 2:52Speaker 4: Yeah. Stu. Thanks for that.
- 2:54Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:55Speaker 3: So I knew Stu didn't watch because, one, he would
- 2:59Speaker 3: just never watch.
- 3:00Speaker 2: Right. Well, I forgot who my team was.
- 3:02Speaker 1: I mean.
- 3:03Speaker 3: Aston Villa. They put the S in Aston Villa this weekend.
- 3:06Speaker 2: Okay. What happened?
- 3:08Speaker 3: They lost 4-0 to Brighton.
- 3:10Speaker 1: Okay, so I'm used to that.
- 3:12Speaker 3: This was how the first half went for Brighton-Aston Villa.
- 3:18Speaker 3: Aston Villa gives up an own goal, 1-0. In the
- 3:21Speaker 3: 8th minute, 18th minute, Brighton scores. It's 2-0. 30th minute, 3-0.
- 3:27Speaker 3: 31st minute, 4-0. Red card for Aston Villa, 40th minute.
- 3:32Speaker 4: It sounds to me like they figured the defense out
- 3:34Speaker 4: in the second half.
- 3:35Speaker 1: Yes.
- 3:35Speaker 2: I have one question for Mikey A, though. How did
- 3:37Speaker 2: it feel?
- 3:40Speaker 4: Like a warm blanket.
- 3:41Speaker 2: Really?
- 3:42Speaker 4: Like a warm blanket.
- 3:43Speaker 5: Just sitting here, I'm sitting there going, oh, man, all
- 3:45Speaker 5: these teams. My team's going to lose because it's the weekend.
- 3:49Speaker 5: It's coming on the fall, and all of a sudden
- 3:50Speaker 5: I was like, wait a minute.
- 3:51Speaker 2: Right.
- 3:52Speaker 4: They're not going to lose. They're good.
- 3:54Speaker 2: Yes.
- 3:56Speaker 5: We should try this in the NFL sometime.
- 3:59Speaker 2: What, for the Jets to be good?
- 4:02Speaker 4: Root for a team that can win on a weekend.
- 4:05Speaker 2: Yes. We're saddled with a team that we have, unfortunately.
- 4:08Speaker 1: I'd be happy to take an NFL quiz, and Taylor
- 4:10Speaker 1: could assign us new favorite NFL teams.
- 4:12Speaker 2: That would be fun. Can we do that?
- 4:14Speaker 3: Mikey, the next level for you. You have to learn
- 4:17Speaker 3: the songs and the chants because once you learn the
- 4:20Speaker 3: songs and the chants.
- 4:21Speaker 2: How about he learns the names? I mean.
- 4:23Speaker 3: I mean, that'll come with time.
- 4:25Speaker 4: I'll get there. That'll come with time. I'll get there.
- 4:28Speaker 3: Once you learn the songs and the chants and you're buzzing,
- 4:31Speaker 3: like I know Chelsea, it's like, I think, Ricardo, their
- 4:34Speaker 3: chant is just like, Chelsea. It's a very easy chant
- 4:37Speaker 3: to learn.
- 4:37Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like Chelsea, Chelsea, we wear blue.
- 4:40Speaker 2: It's so easy that you don't know it.
- 4:42Speaker 3: Well, I'm not a Chelsea supporter.
- 4:44Speaker 4: That's the thing.
- 4:46Speaker 2: Yes, but you're not a Jets supporter, and you know
- 4:49Speaker 2: their cheer.
- 4:50Speaker 3: Yeah, it's the lamest cheer. Fireman Ed, get out of here.
- 4:52Speaker 2: I know, but you know it.
- 4:55Speaker 4: I will say this in regard to my fandom right now.
- 4:59Speaker 4: I am buzzing. I am all in on this.
- 5:04Speaker 5: I took an actual separate quiz that The Athletic put
- 5:07Speaker 5: out where you're trying to figure out which team you
- 5:09Speaker 5: should root for.
- 5:10Speaker 4: Root for, again, I got Chelsea. So I'm like, okay,
- 5:13Speaker 4: this is a match made in heaven.
- 5:15Speaker 5: I am buzzing, and I will also say that I
- 5:18Speaker 5: am one loss away from totally dismissing this whole thing.
- 5:20Speaker 2: And firing the coach, right?
- 5:22Speaker 3: That's what I was really worried about yesterday. A loss
- 5:25Speaker 3: and a setback to Mikey's soccer fandom.
- 5:29Speaker 1: I want to fire the Aston Villa coach.
- 5:31Speaker 2: I mean, Jesus, can I have some feel good? Anywhere
- 5:35Speaker 2: in sports, can I have.
- 5:36Speaker 4: Some feel good?
- 5:37Speaker 3: So you don't fire him, you sack him.
- 5:38Speaker 2: Oh, you sack them. Is that what you do?
- 5:41Speaker 3: That's such a buzz in sack. Like, I'll tell you what.
- 5:46Speaker 3: The England fans, they know what they're doing.
- 5:48Speaker 2: Right.
- 5:49Speaker 4: It would be great. You know what?
- 5:51Speaker 2: I like that term better.
- 5:53Speaker 1: Like, if Adam Schefter reported that, I don't know, Robert Sala,
- 5:57Speaker 1: the Titans sacked Robert Sala, that would be funny.
- 6:00Speaker 2: I like that term better. Do you, Mikey? Sacking as
- 6:03Speaker 2: opposed to firing.
- 6:04Speaker 1: Yes.
- 6:05Speaker 5: I think we actually had this conversation like three weeks ago.
- 6:08Speaker 2: I've had so many of them. They're all blurred together.
- 6:11Speaker 2: I have no idea.
- 6:12Speaker 1: But anyway, so Mikey's soccer team is 1-0. My soccer
- 6:15Speaker 1: team is 0-1.
- 6:18Speaker 4: They're 1-0.
- 6:18Speaker 2: 1-0.
- 6:19Speaker 1: Lingo. Well, the season started, right? They haven't played more games,
- 6:23Speaker 1: just one?
- 6:24Speaker 3: Yeah, that was the first match, opening day.
- 6:26Speaker 2: Everyone knows in the Premier League you have to win
- 6:28Speaker 2: week one. It's big. It's big.
- 6:30Speaker 3: It sets the tone for the season.
- 6:32Speaker 4: On the road?
- 6:33Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
- 6:35Speaker 1: So anyway, we'll get to the weekend observations here on
- 6:38Speaker 1: a Tuesday in just a minute.
- 6:41Speaker 2: But first, Taylor has a Dolphin report.
- 6:42Speaker 1: I want to talk about the Big Ten as well
- 6:44Speaker 1: and their decision that they made in terms of guys
- 6:47Speaker 1: going to the NFL and coming back to college. We'll
- 6:49Speaker 1: get to that in just a second. But you have
- 6:51Speaker 1: a Dolphins report for us. Is this courtesy of Joe Shad?
- 6:55Speaker 1: Because the last time you just read us a text
- 6:57Speaker 1: string or a tweet string of Joe Shad at Dolphin practice,
- 7:01Speaker 1: and it sounded like the saddest thing I.
- 7:03Speaker 2: Have ever heard.
- 7:04Speaker 3: Yeah, so this one's not from Joe Shad, who Joe Shad...
- 7:08Speaker 3: Joe Shad is kind of the ringleader in terms of
- 7:10Speaker 3: sounding the alarms right now for this Dolphins team, so
- 7:13Speaker 3: I was surprised that it wasn't Joe Shad, but the
- 7:15Speaker 3: joint practice last week with the Giants was such a disaster,
- 7:20Speaker 3: carried over to the preseason game against the Giants. This week,
- 7:24Speaker 3: the Dolphins are having joint practices with the Atlanta Falcons
- 7:28Speaker 3: before this game, and Omar Kelly tweets... Dolphins practice is over.
- 7:34Speaker 3: The Dolphins offense was a disaster.
- 7:37Speaker 2: Wow.
- 7:38Speaker 3: They were so bad, Malik Willis got the team together
- 7:41Speaker 3: for a talk midway through. It didn't help.
- 7:47Speaker 2: Why would it?
- 7:47Speaker 1: His players and teammates are lousy. I'm not even certain
- 7:51Speaker 1: he's good. Omar Kelly never has anything good to say
- 7:56Speaker 1: about the Dolphins. I can tell you that much. If
- 7:58Speaker 1: Ricardo's listening and he's sitting right next to you, he
- 8:01Speaker 1: is nodding his head in agreement. Someone tell me the
- 8:04Speaker 1: last time Omar Kelly had something positive to say about
- 8:07Speaker 1: the Dolphins.
- 8:07Speaker 2: And quite frankly, he's right. Because they don't deserve it.
- 8:11Speaker 2: They're lousy. They're a terrible organization.
- 8:15Speaker 1: And they think they're going to fix it with Jeff Halfley.
- 8:17Speaker 2: Halfley? I can't say his name.
- 8:18Speaker 3: Yep, Halfley.
- 8:20Speaker 2: I was guessing there. The new guy. And Malik Willis,
- 8:23Speaker 2: the other new guy. And they're not.
- 8:24Speaker 1: Their team is awful. They're in a tough division. The
- 8:27Speaker 1: Jets are decent. The Bills are very, very good. Super
- 8:30Speaker 1: Bowl good. And the Patriots are the Patriots. And so
- 8:34Speaker 1: Omar Kelly has every reason to be negative about the Dolphins.
- 8:36Speaker 3: This feels like your first admittance that the Jets might
- 8:40Speaker 3: be good this season.
- 8:41Speaker 2: I hate saying it.
- 8:42Speaker 3: You said decent. I'm buying in right now on this
- 8:45Speaker 3: Jets team. I'm buying low while the price is still low.
- 8:48Speaker 3: I saw a lot from Geno Smith on Friday.
- 8:51Speaker 2: Did you?
- 8:51Speaker 3: Didn't see an incompletion.
- 8:55Speaker 2: I mean, do it in the regular season. I'm positive
- 9:01Speaker 2: on the Jets.
- 9:01Speaker 1: My soccer team is so lousy that I have to
- 9:03Speaker 1: find some positivity somewhere, and so where I found it
- 9:07Speaker 1: is with Geno Smith, Brees Hall, and the Jets offense.
- 9:11Speaker 1: That's where I have found some positivity, but Omar Kelly reported,
- 9:15Speaker 1: the Dolphins sound like a misery.
- 9:17Speaker 2: Do they not?
- 9:17Speaker 1: Just based on Joe Shahad and Omar Kelly, it seems
- 9:20Speaker 1: like a team that's going to be lucky if they
- 9:22Speaker 1: get three wins. Mikey, if I set the win total,
- 9:25Speaker 1: what is the win total for the Dolphins, by the way,
- 9:28Speaker 1: on FanDuel? I think it four and would you go
- 9:31Speaker 1: over four and a half would you guys.
- 9:33Speaker 5: Go over i already bet the under i'm trying to
- 9:36Speaker 5: catch that number i'm trying to catch that number early
- 9:39Speaker 5: before it starts.
- 9:40Speaker 6: Right before it's down to two it's four and a
- 9:43Speaker 6: half but the under is juiced to minus 146 right
- 9:47Speaker 6: so you're better off almost just getting three and a
- 9:49Speaker 6: half at that point.
- 9:50Speaker 1: We uh we did the win loss with them last
- 9:52Speaker 1: week i believe didn't.
- 9:53Speaker 3: We yeah i don't think we got more than three
- 9:55Speaker 3: wins three yeah we had one win and.
- 9:59Speaker 4: It wasn't hard it wasn't hard to get there it
- 10:01Speaker 4: was like no that's.
- 10:02Speaker 3: I think it was they split with the jets i
- 10:04Speaker 3: think that's what we kind of.
- 10:05Speaker 1: Settled on so poor malik willis because he's trying to
- 10:07Speaker 1: do the thing where he's the leader he's the captain
- 10:10Speaker 1: he's the quarterback he's the most important guy on the
- 10:12Speaker 1: team he's trying to show off he's trying to show
- 10:14Speaker 1: off to his bosses and so he tries to stop
- 10:16Speaker 1: practice gather all the guys around And tell him how
- 10:19Speaker 1: bad practice is going and how bad the offense is.
- 10:22Speaker 1: But he gets in that huddle and he realizes halfway through,
- 10:26Speaker 1: what am I doing here? Look who I'm talking to.
- 10:30Speaker 1: We're bad because the players I'm playing with and against
- 10:33Speaker 1: are bad.
- 10:34Speaker 3: I want to root for Malik Willis this year. I
- 10:36Speaker 3: think there's a chance that he could actually develop into a...
- 10:39Speaker 3: good to solid NFL quarterback.
- 10:42Speaker 2: Right.
- 10:42Speaker 3: But I'm not going to say poor Malik Willis when
- 10:44Speaker 3: he signed a $ 45 million fully guaranteed contract.
- 10:47Speaker 2: Totally fair. Yes. Right.
- 10:48Speaker 3: This is my little violin for him.
- 10:51Speaker 2: Is that what you're playing right there?
- 10:52Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 10:53Speaker 4: Mini violin.
- 10:55Speaker 2: It's funny.
- 10:55Speaker 1: In the fantasy magazines, Malik Willis is ranked ahead from
- 10:58Speaker 1: a fantasy standpoint because people figure, I guess, the Dolphins
- 11:02Speaker 1: will be down in a lot of games. They'll have
- 11:04Speaker 1: to throw it all over the field. They'll get some touchdowns,
- 11:07Speaker 1: some garbage TDs in the fourth quarter. He's ranked in
- 11:10Speaker 1: like the top 15 in just about every single fantasy magazine.
- 11:15Speaker 2: Crazy, right?
- 11:18Speaker 4: I love garbage time.
- 11:19Speaker 2: So do I.
- 11:19Speaker 4: Garbage time is one of my favorite times.
- 11:21Speaker 2: Garbage time is winning time. Yes.
- 11:24Speaker 4: You know who is the king?
- 11:26Speaker 5: I've crowned him the all-time king of garbage time, Blake Bortles.
- 11:30Speaker 5: Every time that guy– that guy would have like 48
- 11:33Speaker 5: yards in the fourth quarter and finish with 412 yards
- 11:36Speaker 5: and three touchdowns.
- 11:37Speaker 4: Right. In a– In a 48-12 loss.
- 11:40Speaker 2: Right.
- 11:41Speaker 1: Taylor, put it on the poll. In fantasy football, is
- 11:43Speaker 1: garbage time winning time?
- 11:48Speaker 2: It is.
- 11:49Speaker 1: Like, there is nothing more enjoyable than having a wide
- 11:52Speaker 1: receiver on a team that's down 21 going into the
- 11:54Speaker 1: fourth quarter.
- 11:55Speaker 2: And he's a good wide receiver.
- 11:57Speaker 1: Because you know the quarterback, like Tariq Hill had some
- 11:59Speaker 1: games like this, where he would have no catches, zero catches,
- 12:03Speaker 1: zero catches, fourth quarter down 21.
- 12:06Speaker 2: And what would happen? They would always throw the ball,
- 12:08Speaker 2: and eventually.
- 12:09Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill would end up with like seven or eight
- 12:13Speaker 1: catches for 97 yards, all of them coming in garbage time.
- 12:16Speaker 3: So I just Googled best quarterbacks all time in garbage time.
- 12:20Speaker 2: Yes. Oh, what a great stat.
- 12:22Speaker 3: Blake Bortles.
- 12:23Speaker 2: Wow.
- 12:24Speaker 1: Yes!
- 12:26Speaker 3: It says Blake Bortles is widely considered the ultimate historical
- 12:31Speaker 3: king of garbage time for racking up late game statistics
- 12:35Speaker 3: and blowouts. While recent data shows high volume passers like
- 12:39Speaker 3: Matthew Stafford and Jacoby Bursette leading modern garbage time metrics.
- 12:43Speaker 3: That's just from his lion's.
- 12:44Speaker 2: Days, though. Who is the second best quarterback in garbage time?
- 12:48Speaker 3: It's probably Jacoby Bursette.
- 12:49Speaker 1: Hmm.
- 12:51Speaker 2: He only plays in garbage time. He only plays in
- 12:54Speaker 2: garbage time. Put it on the poll. Does Jacoby Brissett
- 12:58Speaker 2: only play in garbage time?
- 13:01Speaker 3: Feels like Gino's right there, too.
- 13:04Speaker 1: On the flip side, it's frustrating when you have a
- 13:06Speaker 1: quarterback like Stafford, and he has three touchdown passes in
- 13:09Speaker 1: the first half, and they're up by 75 points, and
- 13:12Speaker 1: he stops throwing the ball in the second half.
- 13:13Speaker 3: You're like, this is not going to last long. You're
- 13:16Speaker 3: looking at how many points he has for fantasy football,
- 13:18Speaker 3: and it's like, the projections telling you 45, even though
- 13:21Speaker 3: he's at 26 and you're like, they don't know that
- 13:23Speaker 3: he's about to come out of this game.
- 13:25Speaker 4: This is, this is ending at 27.
- 13:26Speaker 3: Yes.
- 13:28Speaker 1: Who is a garbage time candidate besides Brissette this year?
- 13:32Speaker 1: Like I put two in that class, like a garbage time.
- 13:35Speaker 1: He's just going to crush it down 21 in the
- 13:36Speaker 1: fourth quarter.
- 13:37Speaker 2: Like he is. Who else? Garbage time quarterbacks. I am
- 13:42Speaker 2: so happy we're here.
- 13:44Speaker 3: I think Cam Ward's always a strong candidate.
- 13:46Speaker 4: Cam Ward is a great one.
- 13:49Speaker 2: I'm starting to wonder if he's good. I got to
- 13:51Speaker 2: be honest with you. Are you?
- 13:53Speaker 4: No, I'm not. How about Jaden Daniels?
- 13:55Speaker 2: Oh, that's a good one. Jaden Daniels.
- 13:57Speaker 3: I think the commanders are going to be too good
- 13:59Speaker 3: for garbage time.
- 14:00Speaker 2: But if they're bad.
- 14:00Speaker 4: I don't think so.
- 14:01Speaker 2: Right. But if they're bad, garbage time king right there, man.
- 14:05Speaker 2: Who else? Trevor Lawrence. Oh, Dak. Dak all time is
- 14:11Speaker 2: one of the best ever in garbage time.
- 14:14Speaker 5: It's got to be a real– Dak is somebody that
- 14:17Speaker 5: has 20 points at halftime, and then he ends with 60.
- 14:20Speaker 2: Right. Jackson Dart was great in garbage time last year,
- 14:23Speaker 2: I can tell you that. He won me my league.
- 14:26Speaker 3: So I have a nominee right here. I'm looking at–
- 14:30Speaker 3: I'm trying to do my own metric, basically. The quarterback
- 14:33Speaker 3: still has to be really good. That's why I'm kind
- 14:35Speaker 3: of down on Tua, but his team has to be
- 14:37Speaker 3: pretty bad. Tyler Shuck. I can see Tyler Shuck lighting
- 14:42Speaker 3: it up in garbage time.
- 14:44Speaker 1: Tyler Shuck's supposed to join us tomorrow. I forgot to
- 14:48Speaker 1: respond to him. But I could see him being a
- 14:52Speaker 1: good garbage time quarterback.
- 14:53Speaker 2: I could. Well, he is a good garbage. I think
- 14:56Speaker 2: the Saints are going to be pretty good. Do you
- 14:58Speaker 2: guys agree?
- 14:59Speaker 4: No.
- 14:59Speaker 2: Really?
- 15:01Speaker 5: I think they're going to be right in the thick
- 15:02Speaker 5: of that NFC South. And I don't know if that
- 15:05Speaker 5: means they're good. I just think they're going to be
- 15:07Speaker 5: right in.
- 15:07Speaker 4: The thick of it.
- 15:09Speaker 2: I'm just looking. Bryce Young is pretty good in garbage time.
- 15:13Speaker 2: I mean, he is.
- 15:13Speaker 4: All right.
- 15:16Speaker 1: Anyway, I'm done with garbage. Let's talk about the Big
- 15:19Speaker 1: Ten here. What did you guys make of the Big
- 15:20Speaker 1: Ten saying, hey, if you go to the NFL, if
- 15:22Speaker 1: you're a professional, you can't come back to college. So
- 15:24Speaker 1: the Big Ten is making a stance. I think the
- 15:26Speaker 1: SEC is going to try to follow suit. The only
- 15:28Speaker 1: problem is Lane Kiffin coaches in that conference.
- 15:32Speaker 3: It's crazy that we've come to the point in sports
- 15:34Speaker 3: where we even need college football to come out and
- 15:37Speaker 3: make these rules and the conferences to come out and
- 15:39Speaker 3: take a stand. And it sounds good that the Big
- 15:42Speaker 3: Ten's coming out and saying, no NFL players in the
- 15:46Speaker 3: Big Ten. Until a judge in Ann Arbor says, except
- 15:51Speaker 3: for Michigan. And then a judge in Eugene, Oregon says,
- 15:54Speaker 3: except for Oregon. And then everybody starts going backtracking. Because
- 15:59Speaker 3: I think we could all agree that Lane Kiffin... Has
- 16:02Speaker 3: asshole tendencies when it comes to college football coaches. But
- 16:06Speaker 3: he's just early on this trend. He's not necessarily in
- 16:11Speaker 3: the wrong here, even though some people might think he's
- 16:13Speaker 3: in the wrong. He's just early to this trend of
- 16:16Speaker 3: where he's getting his talent.
- 16:18Speaker 4: He takes out the middleman.
- 16:20Speaker 1: Yes, he lives in the wrong. He might not think it,
- 16:24Speaker 1: but Lane Kiffin lives in the wrong.
- 16:26Speaker 2: In the wrong.
- 16:26Speaker 3: So all coaches in college football, they dip their toe
- 16:30Speaker 3: in the wrong. Lane Kiffin..
- 16:32Speaker 2: Dives right in.
- 16:33Speaker 3: Lane Kiffin goes to the highest high board ever, and
- 16:35Speaker 3: he does six flips into the pool and says, I'm
- 16:39Speaker 3: bathing in the wrong right now. And then once he's
- 16:41Speaker 3: swimming in the wrong, he's looking at all the other
- 16:43Speaker 3: coaches like, come on, guys, come on in. The water's
- 16:46Speaker 3: nice and warm. And the other coaches... With their toes,
- 16:48Speaker 3: they're like, okay, now we can use the ladder and
- 16:51Speaker 3: put ourselves into this pool.
- 16:52Speaker 1: He's not trying to cut through the water like an
- 16:54Speaker 1: Olympian diver. He is trying to make the biggest splash possible.
- 16:57Speaker 2: Splash. It's a cannonball.
- 17:02Speaker 4: He's trying to soak the other coaches with his splash.
- 17:04Speaker 2: Right, and we're standing outside the pool. Anyone else want in?
- 17:14Speaker 4: You're already wet. Might as well jump in.
- 17:16Speaker 1: And by the way, he's perfectly happy if no one
- 17:19Speaker 1: else jumps in that pool. He'll take the entire pool
- 17:21Speaker 1: to himself.
- 17:22Speaker 3: He's looking at Jeff Lebby at Mississippi State like, Jeff Lebby,
- 17:26Speaker 3: I am about to cannonball splash you, so you're soaked
- 17:30Speaker 3: for the next three days.
- 17:31Speaker 1: Wait, so you guys are saying that the Big Ten
- 17:34Speaker 1: is saying the right thing, but secretly, behind.
- 17:37Speaker 2: The scenes, all these schools..
- 17:39Speaker 1: Are looking for a judge inside their state that either
- 17:42Speaker 1: went to Michigan, went to a Big Ten school, or
- 17:45Speaker 1: someone who's going to rule in their favor.
- 17:46Speaker 2: Yep.
- 17:47Speaker 3: They're all angling for judges that they have in their
- 17:50Speaker 3: back pocket.
- 17:50Speaker 2: Right. What a time. I mean, seriously.
- 17:54Speaker 5: Yeah, guys, guys, we can't allow this to happen. They
- 17:57Speaker 5: cannot come to– but if the judge says they're allowed,
- 18:00Speaker 5: I guess we're just going to have to let this
- 18:02Speaker 5: guy come back.
- 18:03Speaker 2: What can I do?
- 18:04Speaker 4: Because the judge said he was.
- 18:05Speaker 2: Right.
- 18:06Speaker 5: And I mean– We're not breaking any rules here. Like,
- 18:11Speaker 5: miss me with your moral police.
- 18:12Speaker 2: Don't blame me, the judge. I mean, seriously.
- 18:15Speaker 3: And then a quarterback's going to want to come back
- 18:17Speaker 3: to play in college football, and then the schools are
- 18:20Speaker 3: going to be like, well, it's really important for this
- 18:22Speaker 3: guy to come back and get his education. We're really
- 18:25Speaker 3: prioritizing his education and not the fact that he has
- 18:28Speaker 3: an absolute cannon of a right arm.
- 18:29Speaker 4: Give me a break. And Ohio State is vulnerable this year.
- 18:34Speaker 6: Right.
- 18:34Speaker 1: So technically, Drew Aller, who was lighting it up for
- 18:37Speaker 1: the Steelers, he could go back, if he found the
- 18:39Speaker 1: right judge, could go back to his school, right?
- 18:42Speaker 2: To Penn State?
- 18:42Speaker 3: Yeah, Penn State doesn't want him, though.
- 18:44Speaker 2: He stinks. Yeah, but without Franklin.
- 18:47Speaker 4: I mean, maybe he could go back to Virginia Tech.
- 18:50Speaker 2: Oh, that's right.
- 18:51Speaker 3: Penn State, they got a good quarterback this year. Penn
- 18:54Speaker 3: State's one of my dark horses this season in college football.
- 18:57Speaker 3: Very easy schedule. They get Matt Campbell from Iowa State.
- 19:00Speaker 3: Rocco Beck goes over from Iowa State to Penn State,
- 19:04Speaker 3: Anthony Beck's son. How about that?
- 19:07Speaker 2: How about that? What'd you want me to do with that?
- 19:11Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. You're a Jets fan, Anthony Beck.
- 19:15Speaker 2: He's not a former Jets great.
- 19:18Speaker 3: I mean, the bar is very low. I think he
- 19:20Speaker 3: is a Jets great.
- 19:22Speaker 2: Do me a favor.
- 19:22Speaker 1: Okay, maybe he is. I could be wrong, all right?
- 19:25Speaker 1: Just look up Anthony Beck stats, okay? All-time Jets great,
- 19:29Speaker 1: and just rattle them off to me when you get
- 19:31Speaker 1: them up there. He's not an all-time great. I think
- 19:34Speaker 1: Mickey Shuler is the best tight end in Jets history.
- 19:37Speaker 1: I'm not certain if there's even a close second.
- 19:40Speaker 3: Dustin Keller, like a word? Yeah. Woody?
- 19:42Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 19:43Speaker 1: I mean, you guys said that together, you and Ricardo.
- 19:45Speaker 1: All right, give me Anthony Beck real quick.
- 19:50Speaker 3: Anthony Beck stats, all time. He had 1,537 yards, 21 touchdowns.
- 19:56Speaker 3: How many seasons? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11.
- 19:58Speaker 1: 11.
- 19:58Speaker 3: How many yards? 11.
- 19:59Speaker 2: So 11 seasons.
- 20:02Speaker 3: In the NFL.
- 20:10Speaker 2: And this all-time great had how many yards receiving?
- 20:13Speaker 3: So his career high was on the Jets, 356 yards,
- 20:16Speaker 3: four touchdowns. Different time.
- 20:19Speaker 2: What are you laughing at?
- 20:20Speaker 3: Different time.
- 20:20Speaker 4: That was a year.
- 20:21Speaker 2: That was a year.
- 20:25Speaker 3: 356 yards with Chad Pennington as your quarterback? Man, those
- 20:28Speaker 3: were the days.
- 20:29Speaker 1: Am I forgetting the Dustin Keller years? What am I
- 20:31Speaker 1: doing there? What's happening there? Like he had a good year, Mikey?
- 20:34Speaker 1: Is that what you're saying?
- 20:35Speaker 4: Yeah, Dustin Keller was a weapon.
- 20:38Speaker 2: Was he? Yeah, but not for long.
- 20:39Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 20:40Speaker 2: I mean.
- 20:41Speaker 3: It was right in those AFC championship windows where it
- 20:44Speaker 3: was Mark Sanchez and Rex Ryan, 815 receiving yards and
- 20:49Speaker 3: five touchdowns in 2011 with the Jets.
- 20:51Speaker 1: So in one season, he basically had more than Anthony
- 20:55Speaker 1: Beck had.
- 20:55Speaker 2: Different time.
- 20:56Speaker 3: It's a different time.
- 20:56Speaker 2: You don't understand that.
- 20:58Speaker 4: In an 11-year career. Rex Ryan opened it up.
- 21:02Speaker 2: Yeah. All right. If you guys say so. Anthony Beck
- 21:05Speaker 2: is an all-time great.
- 21:05Speaker 4: I'm sorry.
- 21:07Speaker 2: I am sorry.
- 21:08Speaker 1: Let's get to the weekend observations. Mikey, they're all yours today, buddy.
- 21:26Speaker 4: Let's do it.
- 21:28Speaker 2: Mikey, the streets have felt empty. No chance.
- 21:35Speaker 4: No drama.
- 21:36Speaker 2: No drama.
- 21:37Speaker 1: No last-minute heartbreak, but that's all about to change. New signings,
- 21:43Speaker 1: a packed-away end, and more 0-0 games, then you'll know
- 21:48Speaker 1: what to do with yourself.
- 21:50Speaker 2: Nil-nil. Nil-nil, sorry.
- 21:52Speaker 1: Because, Mikey, make no mistake about it. Just like that,
- 21:58Speaker 1: after a weekend filled with matches, the Premier League is back.
- 22:05Speaker 3: Woo!
- 22:06Speaker 2: The Prem. Just me?
- 22:11Speaker 1: Or is anyone else tired of the SEC and their statements?
- 22:17Speaker 1: You know what the S in SEC stands for?
- 22:20Speaker 4: I'm going to go with statements.
- 22:23Speaker 2: Bingo. You're on it. You're listening. I like it.
- 22:29Speaker 1: Kids going from NFL rosters back to college. College football.
- 22:34Speaker 1: Clown show. Mikey, you know what the C in college
- 22:38Speaker 1: football stands for?
- 22:41Speaker 2: Clowns. Clown show. Nice. All right.
- 22:45Speaker 1: If there was ever going to be a coach recruiting
- 22:47Speaker 1: from NFL rosters, it had to be Lane Kiffin.
- 22:51Speaker 2: You know what the K in Kiffin stands for?
- 22:55Speaker 6: No.
- 22:56Speaker 2: Clown.
- 23:02Speaker 3: I love Lane Kiffin.
- 23:03Speaker 4: So do I.
- 23:04Speaker 2: I didn't say I didn't.
- 23:05Speaker 3: Call him a clown.
- 23:06Speaker 2: I said the K in Kiffin stands for clown.
- 23:13Speaker 3: If Lane Kiffin asks me what the K in his
- 23:14Speaker 3: name stands for, I'm going to say keep his name
- 23:16Speaker 3: out your mouth.
- 23:17Speaker 2: Okay.
- 23:17Speaker 3: That's my coach.
- 23:18Speaker 4: Go Tigers.
- 23:19Speaker 2: Go Tigers.
- 23:20Speaker 4: So the K stands for coach?
- 23:22Speaker 2: Yes. For Taylor. Gotcha.
- 23:29Speaker 1: This is just your reminder that moral high ground doesn't
- 23:32Speaker 1: win games in the SEC. Ryan Day saying he absolutely
- 23:41Speaker 1: doesn't like NFL players returning to college football until one
- 23:44Speaker 1: of them wants to come to Ohio State. Then he'll
- 23:47Speaker 1: be singing a different tune.
- 23:50Speaker 2: I'm not certain he will.
- 23:51Speaker 4: It'll be a brand new day.
- 23:54Speaker 2: The judge, he forced me.
- 24:00Speaker 3: I really didn't want this guy who's going to help
- 24:01Speaker 3: us beat Michigan.
- 24:02Speaker 2: I didn't want this guy from the Steelers.
- 24:06Speaker 3: Not only do I have to take him on the team,
- 24:08Speaker 3: I have to play him 95 snaps a year, too.
- 24:11Speaker 3: Such a punishment.
- 24:11Speaker 2: Remember that? Moral high ground.
- 24:15Speaker 3: Wasn't there one coach who was like, instead of punishing somebody,
- 24:19Speaker 3: he was like, his punishment is he's going to have
- 24:21Speaker 3: to play every snap where it's like, give me a
- 24:23Speaker 3: break with this punishment.
- 24:25Speaker 2: It's the worst punishment, though, I think, right?
- 24:28Speaker 4: Depends on the position.
- 24:31Speaker 2: Correct. What's the position where you don't want to play
- 24:34Speaker 2: every play? Nose taggle?
- 24:36Speaker 4: Nose tackle.
- 24:37Speaker 1: Yes.
- 24:37Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 24:40Speaker 1: To everybody saying this ruins college football, let's be honest.
- 24:45Speaker 1: Just between us, we both know it doesn't.
- 24:53Speaker 4: I am morally outraged, and I cannot wait for week one.
- 24:56Speaker 3: Yeah, see you Saturday, 12 p.m., North Carolina, TCU, kicking
- 24:59Speaker 3: off in the Aer Lingus game.
- 25:01Speaker 2: I cannot believe you turned down a trip to go
- 25:03Speaker 2: see that game. That's crazy, Taylor.
- 25:05Speaker 3: Too long of a flight.
- 25:06Speaker 2: To see your team lose, right? I hear you.
- 25:09Speaker 4: Hey, listen, no one said you couldn't negotiate first class,
- 25:11Speaker 4: at least.
- 25:13Speaker 2: It's weird that he just said no. It's just a
- 25:14Speaker 2: flat no.
- 25:16Speaker 1: I miss the days when the biggest issue in college
- 25:18Speaker 1: football was players.
- 25:20Speaker 2: Getting free tattoos.
- 25:24Speaker 3: Feels so long ago.
- 25:26Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson saying the boos are for personal reasons and
- 25:30Speaker 1: not his play on the field.
- 25:32Speaker 2: Duh.
- 25:33Speaker 1: Duh, Sean Watson. Mikey, you know what the D in
- 25:38Speaker 1: Deshaun stands for?
- 25:40Speaker 4: Duh. Duh.
- 25:44Speaker 2: Duh, Sean Watson is such a great joke. Proud of you, Taylor. Duh,
- 25:54Speaker 2: Sean Watson. Bad quarterback. Worst person. By the way, Browns fans, enough.
- 26:04Speaker 4: Seriously.
- 26:08Speaker 1: That guy gets you off to a 2-0 start, 600
- 26:11Speaker 1: yards passing, five touchdowns, no interceptions. All those boos are
- 26:15Speaker 1: going to turn to cheer. You're a bunch of phonies,
- 26:17Speaker 1: all of you. Where were the boos on the front end?
- 26:20Speaker 1: I didn't hear any of them.
- 26:22Speaker 2: Not one. Not a one, except for Mike Ryan. And
- 26:26Speaker 2: I question his booze.
- 26:28Speaker 3: Dan Orlovsky today suggested that Browns fans should boycott the team.
- 26:33Speaker 2: Oh, stop it.
- 26:35Speaker 5: All the reasons that the Browns fans have had to
- 26:37Speaker 5: boycott that team over the decades.
- 26:40Speaker 4: This is where we're going to draw the line.
- 26:42Speaker 1: Now, it's an odd decision because he didn't outplay Shador
- 26:45Speaker 1: Sanders in the preseason through two preseason games. I would
- 26:47Speaker 1: give it to Shador, but the idea that Browns fans
- 26:50Speaker 1: are so outraged that Deshaun Watson is their starting quarterback,
- 26:53Speaker 1: don't want to hear it. I wanted to hear it
- 26:57Speaker 1: when he was first signed by the Browns, and I
- 27:00Speaker 1: didn't hear it except for Mike Ryan.
- 27:02Speaker 2: I don't want to hear it now.
- 27:04Speaker 1: And by the way, if you're booing now, you can't
- 27:06Speaker 1: cheer if he gets off to a 2-0 start, five touchdowns,
- 27:08Speaker 1: no interceptions.
- 27:09Speaker 2: You can't do it. I'm keeping track. Taylor, keep track. Duh,
- 27:15Speaker 2: Sean Watson.
- 27:20Speaker 1: Do you know how unlikable you have to be for
- 27:23Speaker 1: Shador Sanders to somehow become the likable quarterback in the room?
- 27:31Speaker 4: What a great question.
- 27:35Speaker 3: If Shador Sanders takes this job by, like, week four,
- 27:38Speaker 3: and he gets off to a hot start, he becomes America's.
- 27:41Speaker 4: Quarterback, I think.
- 27:41Speaker 2: You're saying week four, that's the first home game, right?
- 27:44Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 27:44Speaker 3: By the time they bench Deshaun Watson, they're like, you
- 27:46Speaker 3: know what? We don't need this bad PR to continue
- 27:49Speaker 3: if we're going to be this bad.
- 27:50Speaker 1: Right.
- 27:50Speaker 3: Here comes Shador Sanders, America's sweetheart.
- 27:53Speaker 2: Yes.
- 27:55Speaker 1: Orioles clinch their fourth straight season series win against the Rays.
- 28:00Speaker 2: You know what they have, Mikey?
- 28:02Speaker 4: They got their number.
- 28:03Speaker 2: Wow, you were on your game today, my friend.
- 28:05Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 28:07Speaker 1: Every day we get closer to September, the Marlins fall
- 28:10Speaker 1: another half game back in the wild card. A tradition
- 28:14Speaker 1: unlike any other. Ricardo has to be outraged sitting right
- 28:17Speaker 1: next to.
- 28:17Speaker 2: You right now.
- 28:18Speaker 3: He just shook his head.
- 28:18Speaker 2: Of course he did.
- 28:19Speaker 1: It's not your fault. It's the Marlins' fault. And it's
- 28:22Speaker 1: his fault for being a Marlins fan.
- 28:23Speaker 2: How about that?
- 28:24Speaker 3: Always have that June, though.
- 28:29Speaker 4: That was a special June.
- 28:31Speaker 2: Mm-hmm. Tommy DeVito can scoot. Where is he? Patriots?
- 28:40Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 28:42Speaker 1: Ruben Bain throwing people around like it's nothing. Now just
- 28:47Speaker 1: imagine if his arms were a half inch longer.
- 28:50Speaker 4: It's dominant.
- 28:53Speaker 2: Steal of the draft. That was the next observation. Tampa
- 28:59Speaker 2: Bay got the steal of the draft. Tampa Bain.
- 29:03Speaker 4: Very good.
- 29:05Speaker 1: Carnell Tate, zero catches through two games. Hey, Carnell Tate,
- 29:11Speaker 1: we're waiting.
- 29:14Speaker 2: See you, rookie.
- 29:15Speaker 4: Yep. Carnell, wait.
- 29:17Speaker 2: Carnell, back to college. Where'd he play?
- 29:22Speaker 3: Ohio State.
- 29:23Speaker 1: Wow.
- 29:24Speaker 3: Ohio State, man.
- 29:26Speaker 2: Ohio Tate. See how Ryan Day feels now.
- 29:29Speaker 3: Got to Ohio wait to see if he can get
- 29:31Speaker 3: a judge to approve him.
- 29:33Speaker 2: Oh, there's a judge. Do you think Ryan Day knows
- 29:37Speaker 2: the go-to judge right now?
- 29:38Speaker 4: He does, right?
- 29:39Speaker 2: They all do. Yeah. Yes.
- 29:41Speaker 3: It's their biggest boosters.
- 29:44Speaker 1: I feel like Cignetti's got like seven. Like just his entire.
- 29:47Speaker 2: Phone is state judges in Indiana.
- 29:51Speaker 1: That's it. False contacts. The Royals are the hottest team
- 29:59Speaker 1: in baseball. They are 26 games under. 500.
- 30:04Speaker 2: That's baseball. They are the hottest team in baseball right now.
- 30:09Speaker 3: Yeah, I think they've won eight or nine straight.
- 30:12Speaker 2: A losing record. I said, mm-hmm, you gave me two
- 30:15Speaker 2: options there. Eight or nine.
- 30:17Speaker 3: Yeah, you knew one of the two.
- 30:18Speaker 2: I said yes to both, though.
- 30:21Speaker 1: A losing record should automatically disqualify you from the postseason.
- 30:27Speaker 2: I agree. In every sport?
- 30:30Speaker 6: Yeah. Yes.
- 30:32Speaker 3: Nobody should get in from the AL West. Nobody should
- 30:34Speaker 3: ever get in from the NFC South.
- 30:36Speaker 2: So you don't want a football team getting in at 8-9?
- 30:39Speaker 3: No, especially if they're going to be hosting a playoff game, too.
- 30:42Speaker 4: Right.
- 30:42Speaker 1: But what if they're 2-9, win their last six to
- 30:44Speaker 1: get into the playoffs? They could be the hottest team
- 30:46Speaker 1: in the NFL.
- 30:47Speaker 2: I mean.
- 30:48Speaker 3: Got to keep them out. If you can't win half
- 30:50Speaker 3: your games.
- 30:51Speaker 2: Right.
- 30:52Speaker 3: You don't deserve to be playing for a championship.
- 30:54Speaker 2: Just my opinion. Okay. Baseball, I agree. But football, brutal sport,
- 30:59Speaker 2: tons of injuries.
- 31:00Speaker 3: Okay, Eric.
- 31:00Speaker 2: Yeah, but if the Bengals.
- 31:03Speaker 3: Just hear me out. He's always going with the Bengals.
- 31:05Speaker 2: Well, because it always happens to Burrow.
- 31:06Speaker 4: Because Joe Burrow.
- 31:08Speaker 1: So they're 2-9, and then Burrow comes back, and then
- 31:10Speaker 1: they get to 8-9.
- 31:11Speaker 2: They win their division. You don't want them in the playoffs.
- 31:13Speaker 3: Mikey, you know what this is? What? It's like those
- 31:15Speaker 3: balls of yarn where we just keep pulling at the thread.
- 31:17Speaker 3: We keep pulling at the thread. Where is this yarn
- 31:19Speaker 3: going to lead? Oh, here we are at the end.
- 31:21Speaker 3: It's the Cincinnati Bengals. It's Joe Burrow.
- 31:23Speaker 4: It's the Cincinnati Bengals.
- 31:26Speaker 3: Every conversation leads back to the Bengals.
- 31:28Speaker 2: You're on to me.
- 31:32Speaker 1: Cal Raleigh became the first Mariner to hit three home
- 31:36Speaker 1: runs in one game at T-Mobile Park.
- 31:39Speaker 2: First time for everything, the big dumper. He's getting hot, huh?
- 31:45Speaker 4: Just a bit late.
- 31:48Speaker 1: Cal Raleigh might be getting hot at the right time.
- 31:53Speaker 1: We're just a bit late.
- 31:55Speaker 3: I saw this stat, actually. So, before this home run stretch,
- 31:59Speaker 3: this stat comes from August 19th. cal raleigh has a
- 32:05Speaker 3: lower batting average this season than one-armed outfielder pete gray
- 32:09Speaker 3: did for the 1945 st louis browns wow he batted
- 32:14Speaker 3: 218 i think it's more i think it's more impressive
- 32:17Speaker 3: that pete gray batted 218 with one arm in.
- 32:20Speaker 4: 1945 i'll bet he could scoot yeah.
- 32:24Speaker 3: This also goes back to my point like Ricardo's already
- 32:28Speaker 3: saying no. If a guy batted 218 in 1945, if
- 32:33Speaker 3: you put me in 1945, I'm going to win the
- 32:37Speaker 3: batting title. What was going on during 1945, Taylor? The war.
- 32:41Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 32:41Speaker 3: So most of the players were off in the war.
- 32:43Speaker 3: These were replacement players.
- 32:46Speaker 2: So wait, Taylor, just so I'm clear, if I put
- 32:48Speaker 2: you back in the 1940s, he's right about that. There
- 32:51Speaker 2: was a war going on.
- 32:52Speaker 3: He checkmated me there a little.
- 32:53Speaker 2: Right.
- 32:53Speaker 4: Yeah, a little bit.
- 32:56Speaker 2: So if I put you back in 1945 with one arm.
- 33:01Speaker 3: Well, now I have one arm. I was going in
- 33:03Speaker 3: that I had two.
- 33:04Speaker 2: What was this guy's name?
- 33:06Speaker 3: Pete Gray.
- 33:07Speaker 2: How many homers for Pete Gray that year?
- 33:10Speaker 3: You have to imagine he didn't hit any.
- 33:11Speaker 2: Well, let's see.
- 33:13Speaker 3: No, zero career home runs.
- 33:15Speaker 2: Not his fault.
- 33:16Speaker 3: He played one season.
- 33:17Speaker 2: We give him a pass.
- 33:19Speaker 3: Replacement player, scab.
- 33:21Speaker 2: How many RBIs? Singles hitter, yes. Station to station.
- 33:24Speaker 3: 13 RBIs.
- 33:25Speaker 2: I mean..
- 33:26Speaker 4: Listen, I'm sure he was all right. Or left.
- 33:33Speaker 2: I gotta be honest.
- 33:34Speaker 1: Batting two-way team with one arm should put you in
- 33:36Speaker 1: the MVP conversation.
- 33:38Speaker 2: I mean..
- 33:39Speaker 3: Five stolen bases.
- 33:40Speaker 4: Wow!
- 33:41Speaker 3: Six caught stealing. Maybe you should stop trying to steal bases,
- 33:44Speaker 3: Pete Gray.
- 33:44Speaker 2: Leave Pete Gray alone. He's a war hero. I mean..
- 33:47Speaker 3: I don't think he was in the war. I think
- 33:48Speaker 3: that's why he was playing. I don't know.
- 33:50Speaker 2: Check it out.
- 33:51Speaker 3: Honorable discharge.
- 33:52Speaker 2: Look it up. If he was, we thank him for
- 33:58Speaker 2: his service.
- 34:01Speaker 4: T-Y-F-Y-S.
- 34:03Speaker 2: Gino Smith.
- 34:05Speaker 4: Do it.
- 34:06Speaker 2: In the regular season. Jason Sanders is a Jet?
- 34:12Speaker 4: What?
- 34:13Speaker 2: You know what the J in Jason Sanders stands for, Mikey?
- 34:17Speaker 4: J-E-T-S.
- 34:21Speaker 2: Our condolences. Carl Ravage, tip of the cap.
- 34:27Speaker 1: If Clay Thompson is good in Miami, petition to rename
- 34:32Speaker 1: Biscayne Bay Biscayne Clay.
- 34:37Speaker 2: But that, he's not going to be good. We're not
- 34:40Speaker 2: going to have to change the name. We're going to
- 34:41Speaker 2: be fine.
- 34:42Speaker 3: A lot of people down here, Stu, in South Florida
- 34:45Speaker 3: are comparing it to the Ray Allen signing.
- 34:46Speaker 2: They shouldn't be. Ray Allen. We had LeBron Wade and
- 34:51Speaker 2: Bach when we signed Ray Allen.
- 34:53Speaker 3: And now you got Giannis and Bam.
- 34:55Speaker 2: And Clay.
- 34:57Speaker 3: And Pell Larson.
- 34:59Speaker 2: Feels exactly the same.
- 35:00Speaker 3: And the Jovich guy.
- 35:03Speaker 2: DeMar DeRozan. Is it Denver Nugget? I'm reading this for
- 35:11Speaker 2: the first time and I'm shocked. I had no idea.
- 35:14Speaker 1: Mikey, you know what the D in DeMar DeRozan stands for?
- 35:18Speaker 4: Denver Nugget.
- 35:18Speaker 2: You got it. You know what happened to DeMar DeRozan?
- 35:24Speaker 2: The three-point line.
- 35:28Speaker 3: Imagine if he played in the 90s.
- 35:30Speaker 2: He'd be the greatest player in NBA history.
- 35:33Speaker 3: He's Michael Jordan.
- 35:34Speaker 2: Put him in the 40s.
- 35:35Speaker 3: Oh, that's not even fair.
- 35:38Speaker 2: With one arm.
- 35:38Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 35:40Speaker 3: You blindfold DeMar DeRozan. He's scoring 85 points per game
- 35:43Speaker 3: in the 40s.
- 35:44Speaker 2: Brighton four.
- 35:46Speaker 1: Aston Villa nil. Aston Nilla. You know where Brighton took
- 35:54Speaker 1: Aston Nilla?
- 35:55Speaker 5: That would be behind the woodshed.
- 35:58Speaker 2: You got it. You know what the B in Brighton
- 36:00Speaker 2: stands for?
- 36:02Speaker 4: Behind the woodshed.
- 36:03Speaker 1: Boom!
- 36:05Speaker 2: Not boom, behind the woodshed. You were right. You're on it.
- 36:10Speaker 2: Tottenham Hotspur. Did I say that right? Tottenham Hotspur.
- 36:14Speaker 3: It sounded like you had a stroke midway through that word.
- 36:17Speaker 2: A mini one.
- 36:18Speaker 4: You totted them.
- 36:19Speaker 2: I felt like I had one. Dizzy.
- 36:25Speaker 1: Tottenham Hotspur. Picked up right where they left off. I
- 36:31Speaker 1: have no idea where they left off. I'll just have
- 36:33Speaker 1: to take Taylor's word on it.
- 36:35Speaker 4: Terrible.
- 36:35Speaker 6: Hot.
- 36:35Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 36:35Speaker 2: Okay.
- 36:36Speaker 4: No, terrible.
- 36:37Speaker 2: Spurs it. Okay.
- 36:40Speaker 4: The lily whites i'm cold spur it.
- 36:42Speaker 1: Feels like the ray allen signing clay thompson is not
- 36:44Speaker 1: ray allen and this heat team is not that heat team.
- 36:49Speaker 3: They need a chalmers though.
- 36:52Speaker 2: What someone with like irrational confidence.
- 36:54Speaker 3: Yeah yeah well i just meant just a point guard
- 36:56Speaker 3: right because it doesn't seem like they have one on
- 36:59Speaker 3: their roster right now davian mitchell come.
- 37:02Speaker 2: On was that ricardo saying yeah.
- 37:04Speaker 3: Ricardo i said davion mitchell and ricardo nodded his head
- 37:07Speaker 3: along like i said Prime Chris Paul.
- 37:09Speaker 2: Every team should want a fan like Ricardo. Every single team.
- 37:14Speaker 1: Because he knows Davian Mitchell is not good enough.
- 37:16Speaker 2: And yet he's like, yeah.
- 37:19Speaker 4: Yep.
- 37:21Speaker 2: He's not good enough. He knows it. I don't need
- 37:28Speaker 2: to see. I've already seen.
- 37:34Speaker 1: Bookmark that, and let's come back and discuss it 15
- 37:36Speaker 1: games into the season. You tell me if Davian Mitchell
- 37:38Speaker 1: is a good point guard.
- 37:40Speaker 4: Thank you.
- 37:40Speaker 2: I don't know why I'm lashing out at Ricardo. No
- 37:43Speaker 2: reason to do that. He's the greatest thing we have here.
- 37:49Speaker 1: Does anybody watch Hard Knocks anymore? That was my observation.
- 37:55Speaker 2: It was a question.
- 37:56Speaker 1: I know they're observations, but that was a question. I
- 37:58Speaker 1: don't watch it at Seattle. I'm not enjoying watching the
- 38:00Speaker 1: Super Bowl champions in training camp.
- 38:02Speaker 2: I want to see Misery. I tried. Yeah.
- 38:04Speaker 4: I tried. Couldn't get into it.
- 38:06Speaker 3: Now imagine if the Browns were on Hard.
- 38:07Speaker 2: Knocks this year. I'd be all over it. Yeah. That's
- 38:10Speaker 2: what I want to see.
- 38:10Speaker 3: I would say I'm all over it, and then after
- 38:13Speaker 3: the first episode, I probably wouldn't tune back in.
- 38:15Speaker 2: You're right.
- 38:16Speaker 3: After that theme song. Such a great theme song, the
- 38:18Speaker 3: Hard Knocks theme song. Once you start mixing in the sprinklers.
- 38:21Speaker 4: Do your fake Shriver, his voice.
- 38:26Speaker 1: This might be our best impression on the show. Do
- 38:29Speaker 1: the fake sprinkler again.
- 38:35Speaker 4: It's so good.
- 38:38Speaker 1: I would love to be a fly on the wall
- 38:40Speaker 1: for a Mike McDaniel and Jim Harbaugh conversation.
- 38:44Speaker 2: That's got to be great. Just sitting on the wall.
- 38:50Speaker 3: Two absolute cuckoos.
- 38:54Speaker 2: Crazy statement after crazy statement.
- 39:00Speaker 1: Death taxes and John Carlos Stanton getting hurt on his
- 39:06Speaker 1: way from coming back from being hurt.
- 39:08Speaker 2: It's a long trip.
- 39:12Speaker 3: I think it might be a blessing in disguise for
- 39:14Speaker 3: this Yankee team. Free up that DH spot for Aaron
- 39:17Speaker 3: Judge to come back.
- 39:20Speaker 1: Olivia Miles is bringing Rex Spex back. Olivia Miles, best
- 39:26Speaker 1: nickname in sports this decade.
- 39:29Speaker 2: The Spex.
- 39:32Speaker 3: She's exciting. She's got the Minnesota Lynx flying.
- 39:35Speaker 2: She's really good.
- 39:36Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 39:37Speaker 2: MVP.
- 39:38Speaker 1: Wow.
- 39:39Speaker 2: She should be the MVP.
- 39:41Speaker 3: She is in dark horse consideration. I believe I saw
- 39:43Speaker 3: Jess say that recently. If you look at just... impact
- 39:47Speaker 3: for the team. She doesn't have the flashing numbers of
- 39:49Speaker 3: somebody like an Asia Wilson, but her impact on that
- 39:53Speaker 3: Minnesota Lynx team is fantastic.
- 39:55Speaker 1: It should be Asia, Olivia, or Kaitlyn Clark. Kaitlyn Clark's
- 39:58Speaker 1: been great. She had 34-10 the other night. I'm watching WNBA.
- 40:01Speaker 1: Here come the fever.
- 40:02Speaker 4: They're good.
- 40:04Speaker 2: She's had that twice this season.
- 40:07Speaker 1: It's only been done two times before in the entire
- 40:11Speaker 1: history of the WNBA, a 34-10 game. She's done it twice.
- 40:15Speaker 1: There are four times where someone has done it in
- 40:17Speaker 1: that league. She has two of them, and two of
- 40:19Speaker 1: them are this season. She's great for that league. And
- 40:24Speaker 1: so is Olivia Miles. And the M in Miles, for me,
- 40:28Speaker 1: if I had to vote, stands for MVP.
- 40:30Speaker 2: Wow. She's been great.
- 40:33Speaker 1: Speaking of MVPs, NL MVP award. Pete Crow Armstrong. Collision course.
- 40:41Speaker 2: MVP.
- 40:43Speaker 3: I think it's over.
- 40:45Speaker 2: He's won it.
- 40:45Speaker 3: I think he's separated enough.
- 40:47Speaker 2: I agree.
- 40:48Speaker 1: If your fantasy draft is before the preseason is over,
- 40:53Speaker 1: you should fire your commissioner and tell him to go
- 40:55Speaker 1: to hell. It's a bit strong, but speaking of hell,
- 41:03Speaker 1: Art Bryles, Mikey, you are exceptional. And those are the
- 41:09Speaker 1: weekend observations.
