- 2:05Speaker 1: still late Wednesday in the West, and our lead from
- 2:09Speaker 1: the Gift that keeps on Giving and the Boy you
- 2:12Speaker 1: look for these kind of.
- 2:13Speaker 4: Storylines, You're like, man, this is great.
- 2:15Speaker 1: I have a daily talk show every night I have
- 2:17Speaker 1: to come into talk radio and how boring would it
- 2:19Speaker 1: be if there was nothing interesting to talk about. So
- 2:22Speaker 1: we're gonna start out in in Philly and here we
- 2:26Speaker 1: go again. The Eagles continue to be the most disfunctional
- 2:33Speaker 1: seven and two team in modern organized football.
- 2:36Speaker 4: Now you would think you would.
- 2:38Speaker 1: Think the Eagles based on the air around the building,
- 2:43Speaker 1: you would think they are two and seven.
- 2:46Speaker 4: And the drama is just oozing out of the team
- 2:49Speaker 4: facility there. It's like a ruptured sewer. Line, and man,
- 2:53Speaker 4: is that great? Boy? I can't tell you how great
- 2:55Speaker 4: that is.
- 2:56Speaker 1: So if you've not heard the latest on this, if
- 2:57Speaker 1: you're not keeping up on it because you actually have
- 2:58Speaker 1: a life, perhaps not here.
- 3:00Speaker 4: Disgruntled the wide receiver A J. Brown.
- 3:05Speaker 1: He jumped on a Twitch stream this week. A lot
- 3:08Speaker 1: of our sports news. This is something that didn't exist
- 3:11Speaker 1: years ago. We had a lot of our sports news
- 3:12Speaker 1: on Twitch. Guy's gaming. That's where we got the famous
- 3:17Speaker 1: sound from that World Series stiff for the Dodgers, who
- 3:22Speaker 1: mister Blake Snell there, Vassay's buddy who went out there
- 3:25Speaker 1: and rode the vomit common in the World Series.
- 3:26Speaker 4: But it was on Twitch.
- 3:27Speaker 1: He said, I ain't playing this ag at mind brawl,
- 3:30Speaker 1: I'm risking my life brawl. That was from Twitch. What
- 3:33Speaker 1: happening at AJ Brown was on there is playing Madden.
- 3:36Speaker 1: You know, that's what all the cool guys do. And
- 3:38Speaker 1: then right after the Monday night game, Monday night football
- 3:42Speaker 1: game there the day after and he casually, casually made
- 3:47Speaker 1: a decree to those that play fantasy football, which is
- 3:52Speaker 1: probably you. And the decree was, if you got me
- 3:55Speaker 1: on fantasy, he said, get rid of me.
- 4:01Speaker 4: Now he was asked about that.
- 4:03Speaker 1: He was asked about that, and surprisingly he did not
- 4:07Speaker 1: back down. I believe that's the third AJ Brown cut.
- 4:10Speaker 1: But here's AJ Brown. He was asked whether or not
- 4:12Speaker 1: he's gonna apologize for the comments he made on Twitch
- 4:16Speaker 1: and let's hear.
- 4:18Speaker 6: What he had to say, or right, you know that
- 4:21Speaker 6: in that moment where I'm just talking to my friend,
- 4:23Speaker 6: having found with my friend, I'm not apologizing for that,
- 4:26Speaker 6: like I said, because if you have eyes, you can
- 4:28Speaker 6: see that, and so like, it's not that I was
- 4:30Speaker 6: throwing anybody on the bus.
- 4:31Speaker 5: I'm literally trying to laugh through.
- 4:33Speaker 6: Oh, but I'm trying to make fun of the situation
- 4:36Speaker 6: and to try to get through it.
- 4:37Speaker 5: So you know, it is what it is.
- 4:41Speaker 1: Yes, it's such a tragedy of humanity and thoughts and
- 4:45Speaker 1: prayers to AJ Brown to smile while you don't get
- 4:50Speaker 1: targeted enough with the football. It's one of the great
- 4:52Speaker 1: American tragedies that we have today. Man, all right, but wait,
- 4:57Speaker 1: there's more. That's every great late night infomercials, says, wait
- 5:00Speaker 1: there's more. So AJ then stands in front of the
- 5:04Speaker 1: locker and continues to wax poetic about the state of
- 5:09Speaker 1: the Eagles even though there's seven and two, the top
- 5:12Speaker 1: record in the National Football Conference. He's standing in front
- 5:16Speaker 1: of his locker. They're telling reporters that the offense is
- 5:18Speaker 1: not they're not doing their job. Do your job, they're
- 5:22Speaker 1: not doing their job. And here's Aj Brown, but it's
- 5:25Speaker 1: cut one on this take our listen.
- 5:27Speaker 6: We're really focusing on winning and doing our job like that.
- 5:30Speaker 6: We can't just keep slapping the band aid over the
- 5:33Speaker 6: defense doing their job and getting us out of trouble.
- 5:36Speaker 6: At what point we're gonna pick up ox slack as
- 5:38Speaker 6: an offense that we're saying we're so great, you know?
- 5:41Speaker 6: And that's where I'm getting it. It's not about we're
- 5:44Speaker 6: not winning or I don't care about winning. All I
- 5:46Speaker 6: care about is step No, it's been a week out
- 5:50Speaker 6: the week. Sometimes we're not contributing.
- 5:52Speaker 5: We're not doing our job on offense. So you can't
- 5:54Speaker 5: keep slapping a band aid over there.
- 5:56Speaker 6: And if you strict the win later late in the
- 5:57Speaker 6: year and you think you're gonna go to it at
- 5:58Speaker 6: end of the year, it's not gonna all right.
- 6:01Speaker 4: There you go, Hey, we've got three bleeps in.
- 6:03Speaker 1: That's good, all right, So that's a good jumping off
- 6:05Speaker 1: points this the Eagles offense not doing their job, and
- 6:08Speaker 1: of course not about the stats, not about the stats. No, no, no, no, okay.
- 6:14Speaker 1: So we'll jump off on that point and let us
- 6:16Speaker 1: discuss the question.
- 6:18Speaker 4: What is your read on A. J.
- 6:20Speaker 1: Brown and turned. I guess whistleblower would be the way
- 6:25Speaker 1: we'll describe this. A whistle blower on the Eagles offense,
- 6:28Speaker 1: the state of the Philadelphia Eagles.
- 6:30Speaker 4: The record would indicate very good.
- 6:32Speaker 1: AJ Brown. The way he's sounding not so good. So
- 6:35Speaker 1: my thoughts on this, I've got dashboard, hula girl, smoke detector,
- 6:40Speaker 1: and camp counselor, and we will put all of these
- 6:45Speaker 1: things into a food processor and we're gonna make some
- 6:48Speaker 1: puree out of this. So he let me begin by saying,
- 6:53Speaker 1: God bless AJ Brown. He got paid and he is
- 6:57Speaker 1: providing content not for the Eagles, but for gas bags
- 7:01Speaker 1: from coast to coast, from sea to shining Sea. This
- 7:04Speaker 1: guy refuses to play nice, and I'm here for it.
- 7:07Speaker 4: I got buttered popcorn.
- 7:09Speaker 1: He is filling up the content machine on a weekly basis.
- 7:12Speaker 4: You realis I went back, I looked through my notes.
- 7:14Speaker 4: I've gotten at.
- 7:15Speaker 1: Least one AJ Brown monologue in I believe it's eight
- 7:18Speaker 1: out of the eleven weeks of the NFL season. That
- 7:22Speaker 1: is unbelievable production by AJ Brown. I guess outstanding. Typically
- 7:28Speaker 1: headphones to AJ Brown here and so in the cartoon
- 7:31Speaker 1: bubble in my head, and you have a different cartoon
- 7:35Speaker 1: bubble in your head, because if you're in my head,
- 7:36Speaker 1: you're a stocker. But in the cartoon bubble in my head,
- 7:39Speaker 1: AJ Brown is driving around in a very expensive automobile
- 7:42Speaker 1: with Hannah. Now you know who Hannah is. Hannah is
- 7:45Speaker 1: the dashboard hula girl from Arco and he's bringing that
- 7:49Speaker 1: sutty personality where she is. He gets that venturous spirit
- 7:53Speaker 1: and pouring gasoline on the Eagles offense there because it's quality,
- 7:58Speaker 1: top tier gas for last and stir the pot.
- 8:01Speaker 4: Stir the pot.
- 8:02Speaker 1: It's not like the locker room already smells like a
- 8:05Speaker 1: chemical spill despite the record.
- 8:07Speaker 4: Heck, they need green hazmat.
- 8:09Speaker 1: Suits to go in there, because that I mean, the
- 8:13Speaker 1: tell you there's a toxic plume of green coming out,
- 8:17Speaker 1: and shelter in place order.
- 8:19Speaker 4: Shelter in place. Do not breathe the fubes. Do not
- 8:22Speaker 4: breathe the fubs.
- 8:24Speaker 1: Now we love that AJ admitted that he just he's
- 8:29Speaker 1: just reading off the talking points.
- 8:31Speaker 4: One of the sound bites he gave. He's as I said,
- 8:33Speaker 4: all the right things after after the.
- 8:36Speaker 5: Game, and uh.
- 8:37Speaker 1: And then it still became a story, which means that
- 8:40Speaker 1: he went to sportscliche dot com, a website that I
- 8:44Speaker 1: have been a contributor to a few times over the
- 8:47Speaker 1: years of my name is in the mentions of people
- 8:50Speaker 1: that have contributed content to that website. I love the cliche,
- 8:53Speaker 1: I live for the cliche. I love the mockla cliche.
- 8:56Speaker 1: So sports cche dot com and he just copy and
- 8:58Speaker 1: pasted some some click and we just got to execute,
- 9:02Speaker 1: you know, move, move on and all that stuff. And
- 9:05Speaker 1: so that backfired. So then he just went on Twitch
- 9:08Speaker 1: and said what he really felt.
- 9:09Speaker 4: Now Page two.
- 9:11Speaker 1: And the whispers out of Philly there's another layer to this.
- 9:15Speaker 1: The whispers out of Philly say that that Bizarro deep
- 9:19Speaker 1: shot on fourth down and six. You remember Monday night, if
- 9:23Speaker 1: you saw the whole game, the Eagles had the ball,
- 9:25Speaker 1: they had a three point lead, There was about thirty
- 9:28Speaker 1: seconds to go in the game. It was fourth down
- 9:30Speaker 1: and six and at Lambeau and it turns out they
- 9:35Speaker 1: they passed and it was not a play. According to
- 9:38Speaker 1: the whispers from the Eagle locker room, it was not
- 9:41Speaker 1: a play that was called by coach Nick Sirianni or
- 9:44Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator. The boys decided to freelance it. They
- 9:48Speaker 1: ignored the headset, They annoyed, they were annoyed, but they
- 9:52Speaker 1: ignored the offensive coordinator, Kevin Patulo, and the head coach there,
- 9:58Speaker 1: and so Jalen Hurts and AJ Brown. I guess they
- 10:00Speaker 1: they went rogue, as the report goes, and that the
- 10:05Speaker 1: play was incomplete, giving the Packers another shot. Now, now
- 10:10Speaker 1: coach Kevin Sirianni, Oh, Kevin sirious a, Knick Seria. I
- 10:13Speaker 1: don't know Kevin, maybe his brother, Nick Sirianni. So he
- 10:16Speaker 1: got into a spirited back and forth with the with
- 10:21Speaker 1: the media over the.
- 10:22Speaker 4: Play and the lack of targets. We have some audio
- 10:27Speaker 4: on that. I think it's a cut too from Sirianni.
- 10:28Speaker 1: But here's Nick Sirianni, and listen to how the temperature
- 10:33Speaker 1: gets raised.
- 10:34Speaker 4: Take a listen.
- 10:37Speaker 1: Apparably we don't have that, but he said, I knew
- 10:39Speaker 1: exactly what the play was and that we were calling,
- 10:43Speaker 1: and that that was run in the moment, he said,
- 10:45Speaker 1: And then the reporter questioned him, and he came back,
- 10:48Speaker 1: Sirianni in the blow bible, He said, wait a minute,
- 10:52Speaker 1: is that a Are we debating? Was the way he
- 10:55Speaker 1: answered it, and and so they went back and forth,
- 10:59Speaker 1: but it was it was interesting, Are we in a debate?
- 11:01Speaker 1: That was the money quote from Nick Sirianni as he
- 11:05Speaker 1: shot back. So the question, I wish we had it,
- 11:07Speaker 1: but we don't. So what's the temperature in the Eagle
- 11:10Speaker 1: coaches room? As Nick Sirianni gets into it with the
- 11:15Speaker 1: reporters there and they're questioning the targets for aj Brown
- 11:19Speaker 1: and all that, and he comes back and just says,
- 11:22Speaker 1: are we in a debate?
- 11:23Speaker 5: With the reporter?
- 11:24Speaker 1: So the temperature in the room here is it's smoky,
- 11:29Speaker 1: it's a little spicy. It's in fuego. It's making a
- 11:33Speaker 1: run to Taco bell at two in the morning, That's
- 11:35Speaker 1: what that is. He's an angry.
- 11:37Speaker 4: Bird flapping at the podium.
- 11:40Speaker 1: Sirianni there because he knows, right, he knows deep down
- 11:45Speaker 1: these guys they tune them out.
- 11:48Speaker 5: A lot of.
- 11:48Speaker 1: Players tune out the coaches. But this has been going
- 11:51Speaker 1: on for a while now. Instead of just cleaning up
- 11:53Speaker 1: the mess, Sirianni gives you that koy I knew exactly
- 11:58Speaker 1: what the play was, what we called what happened, acting
- 12:03Speaker 1: like he's testifying in front of Congress. So instead of
- 12:07Speaker 1: just answering the question, now, did Jalen Hurtz and AJ
- 12:11Speaker 1: Brown conspire for an audible on that player or not?
- 12:16Speaker 1: It's a yes or no situation. Sirianni looked like a
- 12:19Speaker 1: guy who was caught trying to fuld a fitted sheet.
- 12:24Speaker 4: Uh, you know, it.
- 12:25Speaker 1: Just didn't really seem like he was happy. He was angry,
- 12:28Speaker 1: a little confused. There's the temperature getting raised, there, the
- 12:33Speaker 1: sweat blaming the sheet that he was trying to, you know,
- 12:36Speaker 1: to put on the bed, and.
- 12:38Speaker 4: You could hear the fuse burning on him.
- 12:41Speaker 1: And this whole AJ Brown thing that this guy's become
- 12:44Speaker 1: a walking smoke detector for Drama again every week, Beep beep,
- 12:51Speaker 1: beep be Time to change the battery. That changed another issue,
- 12:58Speaker 1: And now Nick Sirianni sniping at reports.
- 13:01Speaker 4: Are we in a debate?
- 13:03Speaker 1: Yes, Nick, because your offense looks like it's stuck in molasses.
- 13:08Speaker 1: This team is seven to two, and yet it feels
- 13:13Speaker 1: like they're hosting the La La palooza for dysfunction. Every
- 13:18Speaker 1: tent is chaos palooza. The headliner Hurts and Brown, which
- 13:23Speaker 1: sounds like a law firm the rogue sessions. So major,
- 13:29Speaker 1: major red flag.
- 13:32Speaker 4: On this one.
- 13:33Speaker 1: All right, last word, so let's go big picture on
- 13:37Speaker 1: this as we continue the theme of the hour. The
- 13:40Speaker 1: reigning Super Bowl champions at Pro Football the.
- 13:45Speaker 4: Birds.
- 13:46Speaker 1: So question thumbs up or thumbs down thumbs up, thumbs
- 13:51Speaker 1: down on the internal angst between AJ Brown, Jalen Hurts,
- 13:57Speaker 1: and Nick Sirianni affecting the Eagles law long term. All right,
- 14:02Speaker 1: so you have to really stretch your imagination on this one.
- 14:07Speaker 4: Okay, we'll start with.
- 14:07Speaker 1: This because they are, as we said, seven and two,
- 14:11Speaker 1: and they look like they're being held together by duct
- 14:13Speaker 1: tape and a Xanax prescription. So I'm gonna go in
- 14:19Speaker 1: terms of the question thumbs up thumbs down to this
- 14:21Speaker 1: being this internal issue affecting the Eagles long term.
- 14:24Speaker 4: I'm gonna go thumbs up because you know who the
- 14:27Speaker 4: Eagles are.
- 14:27Speaker 1: The Eagles are like the guy that wins a blackjack
- 14:30Speaker 1: tournament while his marriage has collapsed, his car is getting repolled,
- 14:34Speaker 1: and the hotel just kicked him out.
- 14:36Speaker 4: Because his credit card no longer works. The scoreboard looks fine,
- 14:40Speaker 4: all right.
- 14:41Speaker 1: Things are kind of in the dumpster though, Like Nick
- 14:43Speaker 1: Sirianni standing there like a camp counselor and he's got
- 14:48Speaker 1: it's in the middle of summer.
- 14:50Speaker 4: He's a camp counselor.
- 14:51Speaker 1: There's no bug spray, and they're getting swarmed by locusts,
- 14:55Speaker 1: overwhelmed and clearly not in control. Every win, every win
- 15:01Speaker 1: comes with drama, a new league here, a new fight
- 15:04Speaker 1: over there, a new cryptic quote. This week we had
- 15:08Speaker 1: a new twitch uh twitch ray on the video game Pig.
- 15:11Speaker 1: So it's the classic. Winning is masking the rot and
- 15:16Speaker 1: there's a lot of rot. It's masking the rod. And
- 15:18Speaker 1: it's a nice paint job. Yeah, your house is covered
- 15:21Speaker 1: in termites. You want to sell the house, so you
- 15:24Speaker 1: put some new dry wall up and you paint the
- 15:26Speaker 1: house and you're like, okay, we're gonna just cover up
- 15:29Speaker 1: the termitesat and we're good. Uh. And the crazy part,
- 15:33Speaker 1: I'm sure if you you said to them behind the scenes,
- 15:36Speaker 1: do you think this is gonna work? That they say, well, yeah,
- 15:38Speaker 1: it's sustainable. I don't think they're lying by that. They
- 15:41Speaker 1: believe it's sustainable.
- 15:42Speaker 4: For them.
- 15:43Speaker 1: They're winning through complete dysfunction, and it is impressive and
- 15:49Speaker 1: it's deeply stupid at the same time. Dumb d dumb,
- 15:53Speaker 1: dumb dumb. It's just fascinating. And the Eagles could have,
- 15:56Speaker 1: should have, probably would have traded AJ Brown if they
- 15:59Speaker 1: had known this was going to continue. But how could
- 16:01Speaker 1: they not know this was going to continue? It has
- 16:03Speaker 1: been an ongoing theme that has shadowed the Philadelphia Eagles
- 16:09Speaker 1: for the better part of two years now. AJ Brown
- 16:12Speaker 1: got there, he got paid, and it's like he's the
- 16:15Speaker 1: forgotten man in the offense. And it's pretty pretty wild,
- 16:19Speaker 1: all right, So they think they're going to be able
- 16:22Speaker 1: to get it done. I would bookmarket done this for
- 16:26Speaker 1: more than a couple of years now, and this stuff
- 16:28Speaker 1: almost always shows.
- 16:30Speaker 4: Up in January, and then when.
- 16:33Speaker 1: You finally lose in the playoffs, it's where the poop
- 16:36Speaker 1: hits the fan and there's poop in the air everywhere,
- 16:40Speaker 1: and all the dirty laundry comes out. I didn't like
- 16:43Speaker 1: that guy, I didn't like that. I'm pointing fingers over here.
- 16:46Speaker 1: And the Eagles, they are a playoff team built on
- 16:50Speaker 1: what built on passive, aggressive comments, burner accounts.
- 16:56Speaker 4: And rogue fourth down audibles, it would appear. What could
- 17:00Speaker 4: possibly go wrong? What could possibly go wrong with all
- 17:04Speaker 4: of that stuff?

- 18:28Speaker 1: Falcons were expected to be pretty good this year, they're not.
- 18:33Speaker 4: They're not.
- 18:34Speaker 1: And their quarterback was supposed to take things to a
- 18:36Speaker 1: higher level.
- 18:37Speaker 4: He's not. No, So when asked who who he has to.
- 18:43Speaker 1: Lean on during these trying times, Falcons quarterback Michael Pennex
- 18:48Speaker 1: Junior was honest and well, his honesty is the story.
- 18:55Speaker 4: We have the audio tape. Let's go to the audio tape.
- 18:57Speaker 1: Here's Michael Pennex Junior again, asked about who he leans
- 19:01Speaker 1: on during these trying times.
- 19:02Speaker 4: Take a listen.
- 19:04Speaker 5: Like mentally, I like my fiance.
- 19:05Speaker 8: She's always there for me, So I know whenever I
- 19:09Speaker 8: get home, it doesn't matter how I played, she's always
- 19:12Speaker 8: gonna be there for me. She's gonna have a smile
- 19:14Speaker 8: on her face and give me a hug and make
- 19:16Speaker 8: me feel.
- 19:17Speaker 5: Feel good no matter what.
- 19:19Speaker 8: But as far as you know, as far as like physically,
- 19:21Speaker 8: the on the field stuff, it's not nobody that I'll
- 19:25Speaker 8: talk to like as far as another quarterback or anything
- 19:28Speaker 8: like that.
- 19:28Speaker 5: You know, I do have people reach out to me.
- 19:30Speaker 8: I do have quarterback coaches though back at home that
- 19:34Speaker 8: that reach out to me as well. You know, tell me, hey,
- 19:37Speaker 8: like you need to clean this up, clean that up,
- 19:39Speaker 8: you know, and everything would be good. So those guys
- 19:42Speaker 8: help me as far as that too, so I can
- 19:44Speaker 8: shout out them.
- 19:47Speaker 5: All right.
- 19:47Speaker 1: So he didn't mention the head coach, She did not
- 19:50Speaker 1: mention the quarterback coach. He did not his quarterback coach
- 19:53Speaker 1: is offensive coordinator? Or did he mention the backup quarterback
- 19:57Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins. So that's pretty good jumping off point. Let
- 20:00Speaker 1: us discuss the question who is more to blame for
- 20:03Speaker 1: the Falcons mess with Michael Pennock Jr. Looking like a
- 20:07Speaker 1: total bust and not evenere close to a franchise quarterback,
- 20:11Speaker 1: just just a typical run of the mill quarterback who'll
- 20:15Speaker 1: be selling insurance in a couple of years. So who's
- 20:17Speaker 1: more to blame for the Falcons mess with Michael Pennock Jr.
- 20:20Speaker 1: Is it the quarterback, the coach or the backup quarterback?
- 20:25Speaker 5: All right?
- 20:25Speaker 1: So my observations on this one, all right, my observations
- 20:30Speaker 1: on this one. I've got chopped onions, We've got silver
- 20:36Speaker 1: tongued devil, and we also have if that was not enough,
- 20:41Speaker 1: we have the always a popular romania, and we will
- 20:44Speaker 1: combine all of these things together and we are going
- 20:48Speaker 1: to put the biscuit in the basket.
- 20:50Speaker 9: So number stop, stop the things bro stop, all right,
- 21:03Speaker 9: So here's the deal.
- 21:05Speaker 1: Okay, the Falcons. And you know, if you've heard this
- 21:09Speaker 1: show once a month or once every two years, what
- 21:14Speaker 1: do I always say? The better stories in the losing
- 21:16Speaker 1: locker room? And I can't get enough of bad. But
- 21:20Speaker 1: only when you're supposed to be good is it great?
- 21:24Speaker 1: And that is the Atlanta Falcons to a t. This
- 21:27Speaker 1: is a slow motion bus crash. And we're all rubberneckers,
- 21:32Speaker 1: all of us who pay attention. We believe that in
- 21:35Speaker 1: this case with Michael Pennix, h this is gonna shock you.
- 21:38Speaker 1: Nobody else has this take it's personal responsibility that Michael
- 21:43Speaker 1: Pennex SJU and your should blame the man in the
- 21:46Speaker 1: mirror and should take ownership on this.
- 21:48Speaker 4: There's no passing the buck.
- 21:50Speaker 1: No well, actually no, no, no, no.
- 21:54Speaker 4: No no.
- 21:55Speaker 1: Michael pennexj Andr looks less like a first round quarterback
- 21:59Speaker 1: and more like an Amazon delivery driver trying to find
- 22:04Speaker 1: the right house and the GPS isn't working. There's less
- 22:07Speaker 1: than you look at the numbers, less than sixty percent completions.
- 22:10Speaker 1: I believe in today's bubble scream throw behind the line
- 22:15Speaker 1: of scrimmage, NFL offense malpractice.
- 22:19Speaker 4: Mal practice is what that is.
- 22:21Speaker 1: And don't give me the whole Somebody will saying, well,
- 22:23Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins should be the veteran mentor.
- 22:25Speaker 4: That's a bad job. You don't give me that. Rigamaroor.
- 22:29Speaker 1: Cousins, last I checked, is not a big brother, and
- 22:34Speaker 1: I don't get it. There have been some quarterbacks over
- 22:37Speaker 1: the years that have said, listened, I'm not a mentor,
- 22:38Speaker 1: and guys like Joe Flacco Roethlisberger said that years ago,
- 22:43Speaker 1: and that's the proper position. I've never understood. It's one
- 22:47Speaker 1: of the dumbest things that sports fans say, Well, we
- 22:50Speaker 1: need the quarterback to mentor the other quarterback. Cousins is
- 22:54Speaker 1: not paid to hold Michael Pennix's hand and read him
- 22:58Speaker 1: bedtime stories from the old Kyle Shanahan playbook back in
- 23:02Speaker 1: the day. He's paid to play football and not run
- 23:07Speaker 1: some kind of quarterback daycare for first round projects. That's
- 23:11Speaker 1: not why Cousins is there. And yeah, as Cousins sucked.
- 23:14Speaker 4: On the field, sure right.
- 23:16Speaker 1: And this whole idea that Cousins was supposed to shepherd
- 23:19Speaker 1: in his replacement, well that wasn't well thought out. Please right,
- 23:23Speaker 1: If anything, he should hand him a map and say
- 23:27Speaker 1: all right, here's the nearest exit. Good luck, and then
- 23:30Speaker 1: you've got Raheem Morris. Now, Atlanta could have hired Bill Belichick.
- 23:35Speaker 1: They didn't want Bill Belichick to hire Raheem Morris. Now
- 23:40Speaker 1: you can goof on Belichick all you want, say, snooping
- 23:42Speaker 1: the young girl, they're the floozy and he's washed up
- 23:45Speaker 1: and all that. That's fine, But you hired Raheem Morris
- 23:49Speaker 1: over Belichick.
- 23:50Speaker 4: You could have had the same record.
- 23:51Speaker 1: At least you would have add Belichick on your sidelines.
- 23:55Speaker 1: Raheem Morris is showing yet again, great assistant coach, terrible
- 23:58Speaker 1: head coach, can act same guy. By all accounts, people
- 24:02Speaker 1: in the NFL say, Rahie Morris is a likable person,
- 24:05Speaker 1: he's got some raw raw energy to him.
- 24:07Speaker 4: Blah blah blah blah blah.
- 24:09Speaker 1: He's a defensive coach, right, He's a defensive coach, and
- 24:13Speaker 1: Pennex made a point not to.
- 24:17Speaker 4: Mention him, not to.
- 24:19Speaker 1: Mention him or his handpicked by Raheem Morris offensive coordinator,
- 24:24Speaker 1: Zach Robinson. That's a tail, that is a tel, that
- 24:29Speaker 1: is in fact a diadi it is. That's like a
- 24:34Speaker 1: Yelp review without the restaurant's name. You're screaming through the omission.
- 24:39Speaker 1: There's an obvious omission there, and do not get fool.
- 24:42Speaker 1: This is something we've learned. We learned this with Belichick,
- 24:45Speaker 1: more famous than anything, the Belichick Tree. A lot of
- 24:49Speaker 1: people have gone out and hired the Sean McVay coaching tree.
- 24:52Speaker 4: And when you hire.
- 24:53Speaker 1: People from Sean mcvay's staff, they don't come with Sean McVay.
- 24:57Speaker 1: Zach Robinson was not mastermind in La La Land.
- 25:02Speaker 4: In the hood in Inglewood. He was the soux chef.
- 25:06Speaker 1: He was the one chopping onions while McVeigh cooked up
- 25:09Speaker 1: the entree. And so Atlanta hired the assistant to the
- 25:14Speaker 1: assistant manager.
- 25:16Speaker 4: The Falcons did.
- 25:17Speaker 1: And they're expecting a nice Michelin star cuisine or at
- 25:21Speaker 1: least a good solid steakhouse, and instead what have they got.
- 25:24Speaker 1: They've got a stagnant offense that tastes like a lot
- 25:29Speaker 1: of chemicals.
- 25:30Speaker 4: It's very bland, very very bland, lukewarm, lukewarm. It's kind
- 25:35Speaker 4: of like the order soup and it comes out it's
- 25:37Speaker 4: kind of cool.
- 25:38Speaker 5: Well, I don't want soup.
- 25:38Speaker 4: That's cool. I don't want I want the warm soup.
- 25:40Speaker 4: Why want I get souped?
- 25:41Speaker 5: That's cool?
- 25:41Speaker 4: Nobody wants that, and it's it should have come with
- 25:44Speaker 4: a government warning.
- 25:46Speaker 1: The way this is set up here may cause drowsiness.
- 25:50Speaker 1: Watching the Atlanta Falcons sixteenth in total offense, middle of
- 25:54Speaker 1: the pack passing team. They're just background noise. They're drywall
- 25:59Speaker 1: and two add humiliation on top of systemic incompetence in
- 26:04Speaker 1: the state of Georgia. The Atlanta Falcons decided this was
- 26:10Speaker 1: going to be their year. Now, how do I know?
- 26:12Speaker 1: The Falcons decided this was going to be their year.
- 26:15Speaker 1: The Falcons traded their twenty twenty six first round draft
- 26:19Speaker 1: pick to the Lrims. You can ram it all day,
- 26:23Speaker 1: you can ram it all night. And while the Rams,
- 26:25Speaker 1: many people believe, are the team to beat in the NFC,
- 26:28Speaker 1: the way Matthew Stafford's playing in that defense, the brilliant
- 26:31Speaker 1: coaching of Sean McVay. The Rams are obviously on a burner.
- 26:36Speaker 1: They're surging right now. The Falcons are three and six,
- 26:39Speaker 1: so that means if this continues, the La Rams will
- 26:42Speaker 1: be drafting in the.
- 26:43Speaker 4: Top ten of the NFL Draft and.
- 26:47Speaker 1: Potentially playing in a Super Bowl. So the Falcons are
- 26:51Speaker 1: three and six this year and they don't get to
- 26:53Speaker 1: use their pick because they don't have their pick.
- 26:55Speaker 4: They traded the pick to.
- 26:56Speaker 1: Improve the defense because they assumed that Michael Pennox Junor
- 26:59Speaker 1: was going to take them next step. How did that
- 27:01Speaker 1: work out? And so you've got Raheem Morris barring, barring,
- 27:07Speaker 1: Michael Pennix Junior barring, barring. All right, meanwhile, Pattree, we
- 27:12Speaker 1: go to Motown where the Lions run hot and cold.
- 27:17Speaker 1: They're on a uptick right now. Big game this weekend
- 27:22Speaker 1: the Lions and the Philadelphia Eagles. Dan Campbell does he
- 27:27Speaker 1: want the tush push band or does he support the
- 27:31Speaker 1: tush push Well, it's a big storyline anytime the Eagles
- 27:34Speaker 1: are involved. Here's Dan Campbell waxing loquacious the Lions coach
- 27:38Speaker 1: about his position on the future of the Tushy Pushy.
- 27:42Speaker 4: Take a listen, I don't I don't.
- 27:44Speaker 10: Well, here's why I'm the purest man. You take something
- 27:47Speaker 10: else out of the game, then we're taking the next
- 27:48Speaker 10: thing out of the game. Then you're taking another thing
- 27:50Speaker 10: out of the game. Then pretty soon we're not we
- 27:52Speaker 10: don't have pads anymore, and then pretty soon it's you're
- 27:54Speaker 10: only playing thirty minutes, and then pretty soon it's you know,
- 27:57Speaker 10: So that's why I don't want to take it out
- 27:59Speaker 10: of the game.
- 28:00Speaker 1: There's a.
- 28:02Speaker 10: You know, it's it's something a team's got a niche,
- 28:05Speaker 10: they found something, they're good at it, and it's for
- 28:07Speaker 10: everybody else to stop and uh and it's unique and
- 28:11Speaker 10: it's physical, and I just, more than anything, I just
- 28:15Speaker 10: don't want to take anything else out of the game.
- 28:17Speaker 5: You know.
- 28:17Speaker 10: I just want to leave the game alone.
- 28:19Speaker 4: It's me, all right, There is Dan Campbell.
- 28:22Speaker 1: So question, you just heard Lions coach Dan Campbell singing
- 28:26Speaker 1: the praises of the Eagles toush Push. Do you love
- 28:29Speaker 1: it or do you hate it?
- 28:31Speaker 5: All right?
- 28:32Speaker 4: So I love it.
- 28:33Speaker 1: Campbell's out there serenading the toush Push like it's the
- 28:36Speaker 1: star speckled banner. I pledge allegiance. No, he is right,
- 28:41Speaker 1: and that's a great point. I wish more people would
- 28:43Speaker 1: realize what he's talking about there when he talks about, well,
- 28:46Speaker 1: you start taking stuff out and then you take more
- 28:49Speaker 1: stuff out. It's kind of like taxation. You know, America
- 28:53Speaker 1: started with one of the reasons people came over to
- 28:55Speaker 1: America that kind of formed the country was, you know,
- 28:58Speaker 1: taxation without representation. They wanted taxes, and originally they started
- 29:02Speaker 1: just a little bit of taxes, and then they kept
- 29:03Speaker 1: adding and adding and adding and adding and adding and
- 29:06Speaker 1: adding and adding and adding and adding and adding and
- 29:08Speaker 1: adding and add and you get the point. Uh So
- 29:10Speaker 1: that's where we are where we are now. And you
- 29:12Speaker 1: say just a little bit, just I'm gonna take one
- 29:14Speaker 1: thing out and he's take another thing out. I'm gonna
- 29:15Speaker 1: put one thing in and put one thing.
- 29:17Speaker 4: Uh yeah.
- 29:17Speaker 1: So now he is right because banning the torch push
- 29:20Speaker 1: just because Jalen.
- 29:21Speaker 4: Hurts, you're too good at it.
- 29:24Speaker 5: Uh yeah.
- 29:24Speaker 1: It's like when they famously banned the slam dunkin basketball
- 29:28Speaker 1: was embarrassing then, and it's embarrassing that if the NBA
- 29:31Speaker 1: today would get rid of the three point shot because
- 29:34Speaker 1: Steph Curry.
- 29:34Speaker 4: Has been too good, it'd be ridiculous.
- 29:37Speaker 1: But it would be like, in the NFL, you know
- 29:39Speaker 1: that my homes in the playoffs is usually too good,
- 29:42Speaker 1: So why don't we just ban in the playoffs, We'll get.
- 29:44Speaker 4: Rid of the forward pass.
- 29:45Speaker 1: And because he's making the defenses usually look bad and
- 29:49Speaker 1: uh you know they make him look like mal cops
- 29:51Speaker 1: during the holiday shift and all that stuff. Uh yeah,
- 29:53Speaker 1: just too much success. Shut it down. Shut it down
- 29:56Speaker 1: out of an abundance of caution. And people crying about
- 30:00Speaker 1: tush push are the same people.
- 30:01Speaker 4: To cry about everything.
- 30:03Speaker 5: Now.
- 30:03Speaker 1: The reason I'm employed is because of you people, So
- 30:05Speaker 1: I thank you for complaining about everything. I remember when
- 30:08Speaker 1: I'm so old, I remember they brought this wildcat play in.
- 30:11Speaker 1: The Dolphins ran it with great success in the first game,
- 30:14Speaker 1: and oh my god, they've got to put a rule
- 30:16Speaker 1: in to stop the wildcat Hell RPOs. People are like,
- 30:20Speaker 1: I don't know about those RPOs. I don't I don't
- 30:23Speaker 1: I don't like that motion. I don't like the motion
- 30:25Speaker 1: in the ocean. I don't like that. They hate everything
- 30:29Speaker 1: except their team being good. And Dan Campbell sees through
- 30:34Speaker 1: the whining. At least it sounds like that he knows
- 30:37Speaker 1: that the NFL has already bubble wrapped the sport and
- 30:41Speaker 1: there's too many hard hits.
- 30:42Speaker 4: Let's get rid of the hard hits. Okay, we'll get
- 30:45Speaker 4: rid of the hard hits.
- 30:46Speaker 5: Uh.
- 30:47Speaker 1: You know, kickoffs, gotta newter those, cut the balls off those,
- 30:50Speaker 1: We've done that. This is the same league that used
- 30:52Speaker 1: to sell and I remember this.
- 30:54Speaker 4: This was in the early nineties.
- 30:56Speaker 1: They last sold it the VHS tape called Thunder and Destructed.
- 31:00Speaker 4: Thunder look it up. I'm not making it up. Thunder
- 31:04Speaker 4: and Destruction.
- 31:06Speaker 1: And now they slap fines on defensive players because they
- 31:10Speaker 1: breathe too aggressively or they look at a quarterback the
- 31:13Speaker 1: wrong way. They give them elevator eyes, and that's a penalty.
- 31:17Speaker 1: That's a punishment. From a viewer standpoint, I get that
- 31:20Speaker 1: people argue that tush push is boring.
- 31:23Speaker 3: It is a battering ram of a play. It's a
- 31:26Speaker 3: rugby play. It's the problem is it's ninety five percent successful.
- 31:31Speaker 3: What's the point of watching something is ninety five percent successful.
- 31:34Speaker 3: It's not sexy, it's not really innovative.
- 31:38Speaker 4: However, it is legal and it's within the rule book
- 31:41Speaker 4: of the NFL.
- 31:42Speaker 1: And so rather than get upset about, I think you
- 31:45Speaker 1: should celebrate the fact that Philly found this niche, right,
- 31:49Speaker 1: they found their niche. And this is what sports is
- 31:52Speaker 1: all about, all right, when you get down to the
- 31:53Speaker 1: basic part of sports, it's problem solving, it's strategy. If
- 31:59Speaker 1: it's unstoppable, then you should run the play as well.
- 32:03Speaker 1: If Philadelphia can run it at ninety five percent success, right,
- 32:07Speaker 1: you should be able to run it at least at
- 32:08Speaker 1: eighty five percent.
- 32:10Speaker 4: And if you can't run it, then come up with
- 32:13Speaker 4: a way to stop it. Just keeping it real.
- 32:16Speaker 1: Now, Also, Detroit, here's the other factor. Detroit does play
- 32:19Speaker 1: Philadelphia's we mentioned this week, and what do you want
- 32:22Speaker 1: Dan Campbell to say? Yeah, it's garbage. I hope the
- 32:26Speaker 1: league bans it before Sunday. Come on, he's buttering the bread.
- 32:30Speaker 1: He's a silver tongue devil when it comes to this,
- 32:32Speaker 1: and he knows Dan Campbell. If he trash talked it
- 32:35Speaker 1: and then Jalen Hurts converted three of them on his skull,
- 32:40Speaker 1: he'd looked.
- 32:41Speaker 4: Like a clown.
- 32:42Speaker 1: And so not that he doesn't already look like a clown,
- 32:45Speaker 1: but Campbell's basically saying, hey, we're rehn. We don't complain.
- 32:49Speaker 1: You want it, stop beat it. And that's how it
- 32:52Speaker 1: should be, whether that's his actual position or not. And
- 32:55Speaker 1: the NFL is at are well, it's sometimes sloppy. You
- 32:58Speaker 1: don't tell Paca so to.
- 33:01Speaker 4: Say, you know you're using too much blue.
- 33:03Speaker 1: You got to cut back on the blue. You don't
- 33:05Speaker 1: outlaw play because your your team can't run it. You shouldn't,
- 33:10Speaker 1: you know, not not go play the philosophy. So stop
- 33:14Speaker 1: the legislation against success. I just grow up and lift
- 33:20Speaker 1: some more weights. Figure something out. There's if they can
- 33:23Speaker 1: run it as good as they have, there's a way
- 33:25Speaker 1: to stop it. Just people haven't figured out how to
- 33:27Speaker 1: stop it.
- 33:27Speaker 11: Now.
- 33:27Speaker 1: The final point staying with the Lions quick right, So
- 33:33Speaker 1: we had a Lion Commander game that was a blowout.
- 33:36Speaker 4: It was such a blowout that.
- 33:37Speaker 1: Commanders demoted their defensive coordinator because he was incompetent, and
- 33:42Speaker 1: so they made Dan Quinn do the walk of shame
- 33:45Speaker 1: and take over as the play caller. But in that game,
- 33:47Speaker 1: we had a bunch of touchdowns by Detroit and a
- 33:50Speaker 1: celebration for a president.
- 33:53Speaker 4: However, people got offended by that, and so the.
- 33:56Speaker 1: Question is how do you classify Lions wide receiver aman
- 34:01Speaker 1: Ross Saint Brown apologizing for his Trump dance after he scored.
- 34:08Speaker 5: One of the touchdowns there.
- 34:10Speaker 4: We actually have some audio on this.
- 34:11Speaker 12: Here.
- 34:12Speaker 1: Here is the apology. Here's I'm on Rossaint Brown Tiglas.
- 34:15Speaker 11: First of all, if I offended anyone, I do apologize.
- 34:17Speaker 11: I did not mean to offend anyone. It was just
- 34:19Speaker 11: we're having fun. You know, if any president was at
- 34:23Speaker 11: that game, I would if they had a dance, I
- 34:25Speaker 11: would have done. It had nothing to do with who
- 34:28Speaker 11: the president was.
- 34:30Speaker 1: All right, So it's a silly presidential jig that it's nothing.
- 34:35Speaker 4: And I asked the question, who is really mad about
- 34:40Speaker 4: a dance? You feel me on that? You feel me
- 34:43Speaker 4: on that? Seriously? I I think.
- 34:47Speaker 1: People have this warped sense. I think most people and
- 34:50Speaker 1: I've gone out and done these meet and greets, and
- 34:51Speaker 1: most people aren't very political.
- 34:53Speaker 4: That's number one. They just trying to.
- 34:55Speaker 5: Live your life.

- 35:37Speaker 1: they went back to eating their chicken wings and their nachos,
- 35:41Speaker 1: and their peanuts and their hot dogs.
- 35:43Speaker 4: And that was that. This is what happens when.

- 39:37Speaker 3: exposed to the evil things of the world.

- 39:49Speaker 12: Ferg Dog would like to know. Hi, Fergie, do you
- 39:52Speaker 12: want a driverless car?
- 39:55Speaker 4: No? I do not want to drive.
- 39:57Speaker 1: If I die driving a car, I want to be
- 39:59Speaker 1: the one hind the wheel making those decisions. I do
- 40:01Speaker 1: not want someone else making those decisions for me. I
- 40:05Speaker 1: don't because, knowing my luck, I'll be driving the car
- 40:08Speaker 1: and then somehow the global satellite system will die and
- 40:11Speaker 1: the car will stop working.
- 40:13Speaker 4: And yeah, so Lorraina, I.
- 40:15Speaker 13: Like the idea of having the options, so like on
- 40:17Speaker 13: long drives when it's a straight away and I can
- 40:19Speaker 13: just put my car and drive itself mode. But like,
- 40:22Speaker 13: for the most part, No, I do want to be
- 40:23Speaker 13: in control.
- 40:24Speaker 4: Yes, all right, koboloo.
- 40:27Speaker 12: Uh, I would like it, but not where we're at now.
- 40:30Speaker 12: I feel like we it have to be further into
- 40:33Speaker 12: the future when it's been perfected. But you know, if
- 40:36Speaker 12: I could take a nap all of my drive somewhere,
- 40:38Speaker 12: that'd be great.
- 40:40Speaker 4: Yeah. I mean that part is obviously attractive. You know,
- 40:44Speaker 4: it'd saved me.
- 40:45Speaker 1: I got a long trip in where I live pretty
- 40:46Speaker 1: far away from the studio, so it would help me
- 40:48Speaker 1: out in that department.
- 40:49Speaker 4: What is next? What do we have here?
- 40:51Speaker 5: Where are we at all?

- 41:04Speaker 1: when I that's four to five, sometimes five to six,
- 41:07Speaker 1: but usually that's the sweet spot because where I live
- 41:09Speaker 1: in LA, that's when the East Coast Games starts, so
- 41:12Speaker 1: I like to have the game on in the background
- 41:14Speaker 1: while I've eaten my supper, as they say, So that's
- 41:17Speaker 1: usually when I eat.
- 41:18Speaker 12: What about you, Lorraina, I'm a very sporadic eater.

- 41:23Speaker 4: of a grazer.

- 41:26Speaker 1: but you eat a little bit here, a little bit there.
- 41:28Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 41:28Speaker 13: But I'll eat like when I get off work in
- 41:29Speaker 13: the morning, before I go to bed, and then sometimes
- 41:32Speaker 13: I'll be got midday and then before work. I don't know, okay,
- 41:36Speaker 13: and they're all different.

- 42:04Speaker 1: stopped printing pennies. I'm fine, benny versus the penny will
- 42:07Speaker 1: continue and it'll have nostalgia. Now it's a nostalgic show,
- 42:11Speaker 1: which means it's more valuable to show.
