• 2:51
  Speaker 1: hour from NFL training camp. Date line La LA Land
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: date line La La Land. A long standing rumor, A
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: long standing rumor has taken a new plot twist. The
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: La Rams have officially logged a quote tryout for retired
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: defensive tackle Aaron Donald.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: Now, if you didn't see.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: This, perhaps not a little birdie was chirping that this
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: is not your standard run of the mill free agent
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: tryout because obviously this guy's a Hall of Famer, not
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: to be put in the Hall of Fame yet, but
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: he will be there, and was simply Aaron Donald getting
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: some football work in at the Ram facility. We are
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: told that Donald, who's in his mid thirties now, he
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: wanted to participate in some football drills and he wanted
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: to wear a helmet, and that is taboo. It's taboo
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: unless you have the proper approval. He retired in March
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: of twenty twenty four, ten year year run with the Rams,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: eight first team All Pro. Remember, the Pro Bowl doesn't matter.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: They play tic tac toe with the Pro Bowl. The
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: thing that matters is first team All Pro. That means
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: you're good, and he's good. Here's Sean McVeigh. I'm told
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: he is still the coach of the Rams, much duardess
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: May you were hoping you'd go off a new TV.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Here is Sean McVay commenting on the latest developments with
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Aaron Donald.
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: The NFL Transaction Wire had Aaron Donald working out with
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: the Rams today, which.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: I guess had come across as a tryout. It did
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: come across that tryout that we've ever had. Okay, do
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: you think he could make the team? I think he
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: could make the Yeah.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: That was honestly our way of being able to get
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: a workout with him within the you know, parameters of
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: of what's necessary.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: But give Smith said it's the greatest tryout he's ever had.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: All right, what media are those pr people for the
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Rams or those reporters they really like that? The man,
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Sean mcmay very funny, who knew? All right, So that
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: is a good jumping off point. Let us discuss the
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: question what is the word? What is the word for
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: Aaron Donald's free agent try out with the Rams. I've
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: got Picasso, Original AI and Golden Retriever, and we'll combine
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: all of these things together and we are.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Going to go shooting. We're going to shoot. The breeze
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: is what we're going to do. We're gonna shoot the breeze.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: So number one number stop. My word is perfunctory. That
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: is my word. What is the word.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: It's perfunctory as in the bureaucracy of football, the NFL's
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: red tape tango is what This is the perfunctory.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: That's the word.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: It's a show up. Well, you're not allowed to put
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: on a helmet because we have lawyers. It's a liability,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: so you can't do that. So uh yes, sign, I'm
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: gonna clippard. Here's a pen sign and an initial three times,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: initial three times, and then sign at the very bottom there, okay,
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: and then jog around the cones.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: Okay, it sounds good.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: And then you're legally allowed to wear a ram helmet
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: without Roger Goodell sending the Gestapo in with a bunch
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: of cease and assist letters and all that stuff.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: So call it what you want.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: Donald as a permission slip and all that. He's not
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: technically in camp. He's camp adjacent Aaron Donald. It's token participation.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: A Publo Picasso paint by numbers set a little appetizer
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: piecemeal set up here an appetizers sampler of the finger
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: foods available at training camp to Meanwhile, Donald also hired
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: an agent to get him some you know, some of
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: those no show media jobs where these meat heead athletes
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: get on television and radio and are terrible, but they
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: get paid because they used to play one of those jobs.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: I'd want one two of I was a pro athlete.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: It's great, just show up and they pay it for
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: sports cliches anyway, So Donald hired an agent to get
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: one of those jobs. And a couple of theories going on.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: So the theory. One theory is that Aaron Donald is
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: gonna signed right after training camp. In fact, Sean McVay
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: has said that he said the arrow's pointing up and
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: that likely after training.
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: Camp that's when the decision will be made.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: There is a world in the multiverse where Aaron Donald
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: does not sign right away and is a little wishy
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: washy and then waits until the season plays out the
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: first part of the season, not wanting to play the
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: full season, and then ends up playing say half the
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: games or a little he can't play half because there's
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: an odd.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: Number of games. But you get the point. You get
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: the point.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: So we could hide out at a halfway house doing
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: some bad television or radio and then.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: Run off to the Rams mid season.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: So there's possibility that still plays out that all indications
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: are he's going to play. Whether he plays half the
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: year or almost half the year or the full year,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: we will see.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: One thing we can agree on. He ain't into going.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: To training camp at the first exhibition game in the NFL,
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: not for the Rams, but the first exhibition game in Canton,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Ohio will be played later today, and so the let
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: the games begin, of course, a soft launch for the
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: NFL soft launch there.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: Those exhibition games are a dime a dozen now.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Meanwhile, Page two, staying with Sean mcvay's team, there the
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Rams quarterback Ty Simpson that was the number thirteen, number
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: thirteen overall pick in the twenty twenty six NFL draft
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: for reasons that no one seems to understand.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Some video clips of Ty Simpson went viral this week.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw these or not, from
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: training camp, and it showed Ty Simpson, the former Alabama quarterback,
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: scrambling and then throwing a rap the limp incomplete past.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: Now, that video.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: Sparked a lot of trolling, a lot of trolling, which
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: is what you do, the only reason that social media
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: exists is to is to troll.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: And you know, people were saying, oh man, this is
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: bur this guy sucks and all that.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: Well, Mike from Seattle sent me no less than six
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: email messages demanding that I discuss ty Simpson's poor performance
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: and said.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: If it had been a Seahawks, you would have led
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: the show with you. But you live the Seahawks. Are
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: you need to talk about it? Boom?
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: Which a is not true because I don't really get
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: too worked up about on field performance in practice.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: I don't.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: I should be better for me, be easier for me
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: to sit here and rant and rave behind the bully
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: pulpit when somebody has a bad practice.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: I just don't really care.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: It's like getting upset over somebody playing bad in spring
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: training in baseball. I don't.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: It doesn't do anything.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: It does but to pacify, to pacify this guy, Mike,
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: I will address this situation, so the question.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Will frame it this way.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: How concerned should Sean McVay be with the LA Rams
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: training camp struggles of rookie quarterback Tye Simpson, so.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: On a malor scale of one to ten, level of.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: Concern for the Rams based on Ty Simpson and his
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: apparently weak training camp, I am at a on a
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: scale of one to ten. I'm at a zero again,
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: scale of one to ten, absolute zero, Antarctic in February zero.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Anyone turning Ty Simpson throwing a wobbly pass like that's
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: some kind of State of the Union address. Just sit down,
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: take a time out, hydrate a little bit, take some
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: deep breasts. Here's a paper bag, and knock yourself out. Like, look,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: we didn't care for the pick.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: Mike wants me to be like a ram cheer, like
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: those people that were interviewing McVeigh that sounded like they
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: had their knee pads.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: On doing the Hawk Tour. But I'm not doing that.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: I didn't like to pick.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: At the time, Simpson was clearly overdrafted. It was a
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: panic move by the Rams front office. And his ceiling
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: looks to be that of a game manager. And you
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: don't draft that guy in the first round. You can
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: get that guy in the fourth round or the fifth round.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: You don't need to take that guy in the first round.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: In the middle of the first round, and so he
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: had zero business being drafted where he was now.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: Nevertheless, I get I.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: Don't get worked up into a lather over practice reps, good.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: Bad or ugly. A rookie looked like a rookie video
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: at eleven now.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: Nevertheless, remember the gospel of the original AI that. Of course,
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: for you kids that don't know who this is, there
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: was a basketball player named Alan Iverson years ago. He's
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: pretty good, pretty good, and we talked about practice.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: Not a gay, not a game. Not again.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: I'm the star player we hear talking about practice. Ty
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: sims is a developmental quarterback. He is supposed to look
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: like a baby draft learning to walk in training camp.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: The Rams knew this.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: They drafted him to not play him, and Sean McVay
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: is not worried. He's cooking up spells in the sorcerer's
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: workshop right now, throwing the quarterback Ty Simpson into Hogwarts
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: with the playbook and Matthew Stafford, for better or worse,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: is the straw that stirs the drink.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: We thought he wouldn't play last year because of his
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: bad back.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: He surprised us and went out and won the Most
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: Valuable Player of the Year award. And if it had
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: not been for a phantom two point conversion that was
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: illegally given to Seattle Seahawks.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: The Rams would have won the Super Bowl.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: Now without him, the offense of the Rams is water,
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: it is pond water. And so Ty Simpson, you can
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: send me every one of his crappy throws in training camp,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: all the clips you want, and I get it.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: It's ammo for you.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: You want to attack, and you want to go on
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: the war path and all that. It just doesn't change
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: means the reality of the situation. This is essentially a
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: red shirt season for ty Simpson.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: If something goes.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: Terribly wrong, he's going to play. The plan is for
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: him not to play, all right, final point to the
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: Electric Company. We go and right out of the tabloids,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: quarterback Justin Herbert. Justin Herbert and his fiance singer Madison Beer.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Remember she's the woman that couldn't sell tickets on her
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: tour at the end there it was very embarrassing. So
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Justin Herbert and his fiance Madison Beer went viral. Then
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: that went viral. What did they do well? It was
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: a fan video that showed the new It couple sharing
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: some affection. They were really enjoying each other's company. There
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: in the middle of Chargers training camp. Who goofed. I've
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: got to know. Now in the video clip, you have
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: the singer there, Madison Beer, Madison Beer stroking Justin.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: Herbert's hair while they sat together on the field. Now
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: that PDA, Yeah, that's PDA.
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: That sparked criticism, a lot of mocking of Justin Herbert,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: suggesting that that public display is not a good sign
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: as the teams are supposed to be locked in getting
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: ready for the regular season. So the question, and keep
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: in mind, this thing went viral, it didn't get a
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: lot of mainstream play, didn't get a lot of mainstream play.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: So the question why does Justin Herbert seemingly get the
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: kid glove media treatment when there are other quarterbacks with
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: his postseason resume who get roasted like a butterball turkey
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving? So this one's rather simple. The NFL media
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: elites protect Justin Herbert. You watch a Charger game on
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: Network TV, whether it's.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: Aikman, Collinsworth, Romo the Drunk, I.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: Guess he's not around anymore, Romo for now, any of
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: these guys, I guess Tom Brady.
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: They have the mute button on with Tom's on because
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: he's terrible. But any of those guys, any of them.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: You know, they run interference, they give a little shoulder
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: rubs to Herbert, and they love them.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: They can't get enough of them.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: The other factor too, with the football media like Debate
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: TV or debate radio, the Chargers don't exactly get great clicks.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: There's not a lot of engagement farming because they're not
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: really good clickbait. If you've ever been fishing and you've
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: had the wrong bait, the Chargers of the wrong bait. Nevertheless,
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: on this show, we believe in the fairness doctrine.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: We give no quarterbacks a pass. None.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: We are equal opportunity assassins of the quarterback position. And
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: justin Herbert just became the first quarterback I believe, and
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: you can correct.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: Me if I'm wrong. I'll give out the number a
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: couple minutes.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: But we're pretty sure he's the first quarterback in any
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: of a history to get sacked by a public display
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: of affection.
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: So that's that's what happened.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: And look we get that he's engaged, and that's exciting.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: You know, it's one of those steps in life. You
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: think about the circle of life. You're born, you grow up,
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: you go to school. Uh, maybe you go to more
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: school college, maybe not your your first job.
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: You know, you learn how to drive somewhere in there.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: You end up finding someone to spend your life with,
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: and then you end up maybe having a family, or
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: you don't have a family, but you live your life
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: and these things happen, and that's it. It's a circle
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: of life. And so this is one of those events
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: in the circle of life. And it's it's great how
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: he's at work. There are plenty of NFL players who
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: have dated hot people, hot.
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: Women, uh, married said hot women, famous women.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: Uh. And I do not recall and again I might
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: be wrong with this. I don't recall any on field
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: canoodling during training camp. I don't remember this happening. It's
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: possible that Joe Namath before my time, Joe Namath had,
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: you know, a couple of hobbies out there at practice
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: for the yet I don't know. But the notes I have,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: I mean, did Taylor Swift give Travis Kelcey a foot
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: massage at Chiefs training camp last year? Or I know
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: they're not together anymore, but was Cardi b rubbing Stefan
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: Digg's head mid practice?
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: I don't have that in my notes. I don't so if.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: You haven't seen The Clipper, if you're blind, justin Herbert
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: looked like a Golden retriever getting his hair stroked at
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: the dog park.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: That's kind of what he looks like. I got a
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: laid back surfer dude.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: He has that persona the laid back surfer dude thing,
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: and just came across his tone deaf. I understand he's
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: already got allergies and he doesn't take his allergy medication.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: The allergies flare up every postseason game he plays in.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: And now you've got Jim Harbaugh kind.
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: Of okay with this.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: It would appear Jim Harbaugh the Chargers are turning their
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: training camp into a nineteen nineties rom com.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: And it just it's like, man, I know it was
• 17:57

• 21:38
  Speaker 1: to the Seahawks again. Well, you're gonna need more than
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: two points this year, no, studenus. You're gonna have to
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: get at least three points, like an extra field goal,
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: possibly a touchdown.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: To beat the Rams. Now there you go.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: Uh, that's it, Dan writes in he says Herbert justin

  Speaker 1: Jackson writes and says Russell Wilson and Sierra were ridiculous

  Speaker 1: I guess I blocked that out or I didn't see it.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: I did not see it.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Yaphemi writes in says.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: What if it's all a con to advertise Aaron Donald's
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: new TV show?
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: Hey, listen, anything is possible. I wouldn't be shocked.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: You imagine if we find out a couple weeks from
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: now and your Femi's right, and it's like.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: Aaron Donald has got a Netflix.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: Docu series on his come back to the NFL, and
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: then at the end of it, the last episode he
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: doesn't want to come back. Mister irrigation, friend of the show,
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: legend of the show, mister Irrigation from the City of
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: Houston or the Greater Houston area, says, I for one
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: am glad the Dodgers spent two hundred million dollars on
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: Kyle Tucker.
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: They really should have paid him more. I agree, Just
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: pay him.
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: More, more and more and more and more, more and more.
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: And more and more and more.
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: Mister irrigation also says, is the Triple Crown dead?
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: Will justify be the last Triple Crown winner in horse racing?
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: It's not dead.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: However, there's a priest and a rabbi and a shaman
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: outside and they're all talking, waiting to go into the
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: room for the Triple Crown. As you know, mister irrigation,
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: we live in the age out of an abundance of caution.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: So why would you risk.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: Running a horse in all three races of the Triple
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: Crown races and you have to go from Kentucky to
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: Baltimore and New York. Oh my god, and what if
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: the horse gets hurt and you lose all that money?
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: And so, my goodness, ferg Dog rides in and he says,
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: I am so tired of people trying to drag mallards
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: teams down, saying the Dodgers are ruining baseball, taking shots
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: at an irrelevant Rams draft pick, and a podcaster fabricating
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: a Clipper scandal that's faker than Robbie's Canadian girlfriend.
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: Wow?
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: Does Robbie have a Canadian girlfriend? Did I not? I
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: must have missed that. I must have not gotten that story?

  Speaker 2: That means as good as all the rest Anthony. But
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: thank you. All Right, there he goes Anthony in Louisiana.
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: It's uh, you think he's like it right on the
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: bayou there, surrounded by swamps and all kinds of critters
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: and things that go bumpitty bumping the night out there.
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: It's possible.
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: Never been there, I don't know. Now, have you ever
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: lived in a basement? Do you like living in the basement?
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: Do you enjoyed the basement? Well, it turns out a
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: baseball player that has one of those forever contracts appears.
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: To like the basement. That would be Mike Trout.
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: Remember all those rumors getting clicks that Mike Trout was
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: going to go to the Phillies or the Yankees of
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: the Red Sox at the deadline and Mike Trout went nowhere?
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: Didley squat? Didley squat for Mike Trout? So one of
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: the toe licking Angel media people asked Mike Trout whether
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: or not the Angels unloading it was about thirty percent
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: of their big Lee roster changed his desire to stay
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: with the team. Did Mike Trout A say no comment,
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: B say I wish I had been.
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: Traded, or see nothing's changed the answer.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: See Mike Trout asked about the Angels getting rid of
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: a bunch of players, granted a lot of these guys
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: were dead beats, and he said, hasn't changed Anything's what
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: a great life, what a tremendous life that Mike Trout has.
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: You talk about living the dream, Live in the frickin' dream.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: This guy spends six months a year, seven months a year,
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: I have more like six. In half the time, he's
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: in Laguna Beach, right on the Pacific Mansion, right there
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: in Laguna looking out at the mighty Pacific Ocean. And
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: then he spends the rest of his time in his home.
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: Territory there in New Jersey.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: He plays for the Angels, gets paid a lot of money,
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: and it's like being in the major leagues. But not
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: being in the major leagues, you lose every year. You're
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: in a market where you're not held accountable. You don't
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: really get booed, you don't get judged.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: You know, you don't.
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: Get any of that because, as Arti Marinos said, the
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: owner of the Angels, the man in charge, he said,
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: they did market research and they determined that the fan
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: base there, the fan base is very excited to just
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: get cheap prices on the nachos, and they just want
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: a safe environment. They want affordable nachos. They would like
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: nice pretzels, soft pretzels, preferably, and that's all they want.
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: They don't need anything other than that. That's all they need.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: And so Troud's very happy, happy there. So I thought
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: that that was amusing. And Trout's getting to the point
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: now where he's getting to the age where it's not
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: likely he's going to play anywhere else, at least not
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: while he's under contract, because no one's going to trade
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: for him or the Angels would have to pay the money,
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: and Arti Marino's not going to do that unless the
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: team's sold.
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: So good luck on.
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: That situation and ripping Canadian baseball. How about this the
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: gas man, Kevin Gossman, journeyman pitcher, good pitcher, but he's
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: bounced around, his pitched for a bunch of teams around
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: the major leagues. So he was just traded this week
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: from the team representing the blue the Toronto Blue Jays.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: From that squad, he was sent from there to Chicago,
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: the North side the Cups. So Kevin Gosman gets to
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: Chicago and he was asked what the difference is between
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: playing baseball in Chicago and playing for the Toronto baseball team, and.
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: He said the following quote.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: I saw this bouncing around. He said, it's the first
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: time my wife's been here.
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: That's top right there. How is that possible?
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: Gasman's been Gospin's rather been in the major leagues for
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: a very long time and never like these guys go
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: on family road trips, so they bring their wives and kids.
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: Every team does it. I guess Chicago's not a family
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: road trip destination. I know when at a buddy of
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: these work for the Pittsburgh Pirates and they'd come in
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: in italygue play they play the Angels, and they would
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: stay at a resort in Dana Point, South, Orange County
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: and have Disney trips and all that. Like there was
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: a family trip and a lot of teams do that.
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: A lot of teams do that.
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: He never went to Chicago.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: Chicago's a beautiful and during the summer, it's a top
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: five city in America. Chicago during the winter not so much. Anyway,
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: Gospin quote continues, said, you know, he said his.
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: Wife had never been there.
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: After the first day, Gosman said, the new cup pitcher,
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: it's so different than Toronto. I was like, yeah, the
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: focus is baseball, it's real grass, it's outside.
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: Close quote.
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: So he didn't mean to poop on Toronto. He just
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: pooped on Toronto where they play in the great indoors
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: in downtown on turf, and that's what they do. Although
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: I would argue that, and I've been to Wrigley before
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: and after they renovated Wrigley Field, and I.
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: Enjoyed it more before before they renovated it.
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: Now it's like downtown Disney, except instead of Mickey Mouse,
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: they have the cub logo. That's what they got going

  Speaker 2: go with von Miller of the Broncos. Well, von Miller,
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: A lot of people don't remember he broke.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: In as a running back and they think that he
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: was only a defensive end edge rusher. So tremendous answer.
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: Unfortunately incorrect. The correct answer would be Kareem Hunt. Kareem Hunt,
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: Hunt Hunt. Cleveland Browns also played with Kansas City there
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: twenty seventeen, so that was the last time, and then

  Speaker 5: to talk about last year and that he wants to
• 38:24
  Speaker 5: quote put last year behind me and just come out
• 38:26
  Speaker 5: here and do it again.

  Speaker 2: Yeah. Ben.

  Speaker 5: Only two running backs in the last twenty five years
• 38:29
  Speaker 5: have led the league rushing back to back years, Derrick
• 38:32
  Speaker 5: Henry and Ladanian Tomlinson.
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: Do you think Cook can become the third?
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: Well?
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: Could he? Yes? I like that the instant trivia tied
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: into this coup, by the way, the synergy that we
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: have on this Yes, I plan that is amazing. Yes,
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: So can he yes? Will he know? For multiple reasons.
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: Typically extreme outcomes are followed by more moderate ones, and
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: you also have the injury bug that is floating around
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: in the NFL. So I'm gonna go No, I'm gonna
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: go no, James Cook?
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: Can he yes? Will he know? Next?
• 39:04
  Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers revealed that Mike McCarthy wants him out there
• 39:07
  Speaker 5: for thirty to forty plays in the Steelers' first two
• 39:09
  Speaker 5: preseason games. Now, Ben Roethlisberger said on his podcast this
• 39:13
  Speaker 5: week that he thinks it's a bad idea. He said
• 39:14
  Speaker 5: those snaps should be used to evaluate Pittsburgh's future.
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: Ben is he right?
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, No, they don't have a future quarterback on the roster.
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: They've got two.
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: Players who, you know, just kind of look at him.
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: Maybe they might be good, maybe they won't be good. Now,
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: Rogers will go out there, he'll hand off. Let's say
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: he plays thirty plays, He'll hand off twenty five times
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: and throw five bubble screens, and then there'll be two
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: other plays he picks his nose on.
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: That's what he's going to do. So, now, you.
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: Don't play scared, you don't coach scared. I just I
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: hate that mindset.
• 39:46
  Speaker 5: Next Ceedee Lamb told reporters on Tuesday that he thinks
• 39:48
  Speaker 5: George Pickens should get all the money in the world.
• 39:51
  Speaker 5: Ben does a Lamb endorsement factor into the Cowboys decision
• 39:54
  Speaker 5: on a long term contract for Pickens?
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: Yes, I think he should get the gross domestic product
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: of small c trees in Europe.
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: Why not?
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: No, it doesn't who cares like it would be more
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: meaningful if he trashed him Like these guys always advocate
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: for each other. Which by the way, doesn't happen in
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: my business and radio, but in that business it happens
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: all the time.
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: But it doesn't matter. There it is how do we
• 40:15
