  Speaker 1: mondading live from the scratch. The secret sauce made from

  Speaker 1: scratch from old family recipes. Here is from the world
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: famous Fox Sports Radio Studios. Now Chris in Houston who's
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: working the dreaded day shift, and Eke in Roseville, Minnesota,
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: who's not. They both know though, this show is made
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: possible in part by our friends at ti Iraq. That's right,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: ti Iraq. For over forty years they've been helping customers
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: like Al in Minnesota and Chet in San Diego find
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: the right tires for how, what and where they now.

  Speaker 1: Meller prop Guy he loves the factorship fast and free,

  Speaker 1: mobile tire installation, tire act dot com the way tire
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: buying should be. So we'll pick up the baton and
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: we will slice and dice the continued in depth team
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: coverage from the post mortem out of Super Bowl sixty.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: There the dissecting and analyzing has continued. The autopsy of
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl sixty and nothing really all that memorable about it.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: It was a bit of a dud, and yet the
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: reaction continues to be overwhelming. I must have been watching
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: a different game. I must have been watching a different game,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: because the game that I watched I didn't think Sam
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Donald was very good. Did you think he was good?
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: I didn't think he was good and yet overwhelming? You
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: were wrong, Maaler, You didn't know, You don't Why were
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: you want?
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: I know?
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: You should be on the radio or they always you're
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: on overnights. You know that whole thing. Okay, So if
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: you haven't been following, that's just a few of the
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: handpicked messages in my inbox. But if you have not
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: been following this love affair. As every hack sports blogger
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: there used to be sports writers, but every hack sports
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: blogger and social media insider, they all follow the same dogma.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: And the dogma is that this is one of the
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: great redemption stories of all time, and you can't push
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: back on that with any reality. You're not allowed to
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: push back on the reality of the situation. So the
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Sam Darnald, we're in the part of the story where
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: the Sam Donald mythmaking is going on.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: Here.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: We're pupping up Sam Donald next level on to the
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: next level here. Now, despite what most knowledgeable people would
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: say was a middling performance in Super Bowl sixty on Sunday,
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: we are now supposed to believe that Sam Donald has
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: somehow skyrocketed. He's leap frogged up into the upper echelon
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: of quarterbacks of the NFL because he has won a championship. Ooh,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: it's so excited. It's a romance, is what it is.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: It's a real romance with Sam Donald. It has no limits.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: I'm determined based on a minutes long deliberation, there is
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: no limit to the romance of Sam Donald adall because
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: Seattle won and that's it. So it's been a slabber
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: slaber slaver slaber slaber slaberfest. And so even our guy
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Fried Daddy, who's a longtime member of the Mallard Militia,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: sworn in member of the Mallard Militia. Fried Daddy, who's
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: a proud Eagle fan from the heart of Pennsylvania, Harrisburg, PA,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: the capital right there in the middle of Pennsylvania. Very
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: proud man, loves the birds, and even he has been
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: drinking the kool aid when it comes to Sam Donald
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: sent me a message that he would rather have Sam
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Darnald over Jalen Hurts. That's what he's Yeah, And by
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: the way, he's not alone, he's not a loan. So
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: let's let's stop right there. With the pause button. Good
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: jumping off point, and let us discuss the question. Let's
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: make this a multiple choice question. So the multiple choice question,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: would you rather have a Jalen Hurts of the Eagles
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: or b Sam Donald of the twenty twenty five into
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty six Seattle Seahawks. What is your verdict on that?
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: All right? So I've got party trick, farm to plate
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: and halo effect, and we will combine all of these
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: things together and we are gonna put the biscuit in
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: the basket, is what we're going to do. So A,
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: am I gonna take the letter A? No? Am I
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: gonna take the letter beaten? No surprise. I'm going with
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: options see on the multiple choice option see is none
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: of the above. Now, why why am I going tone
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: the above? Because both these guys are bus riders. They're
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: not driving the bus. They're not. They're not like our
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: guy Roberto who quit the life of radio for the
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: celebrity life of being a bus dropper. They are not.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: They're not driving the bus. However, if you put a
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: gun to my head, I would be upset by that.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: Don't do that. But if you put a gun to
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: my head and I had to pick, you gotta pick
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: one that gun to the head. I'm going with Jalen Hurts.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: I would take Jalen Hurts over Sam Donald. And here's why.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: Side by side the blind Pepsi challenge, there is one
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: thing and one thing only that Jalen Hurts does at
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: a truly elite level that Sam Donald cannot even get
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: close to. And every man, woman and child that's paid
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: a attention to football the last couple years knows this,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: all right. The reality is that the one elite skill,
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: the one elite skill there touch pushe god toush ay pushe.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: That's it. That's his superpower, period stop. That's the cheat code.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts he has a party trick and it always
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: works ninety five point whatever percent of the time. And
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: so that's that's why. And Donald isten. He's got a
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: lot of carry on luggage. He's got that. And Seattle
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: did drag him like a sofa across the finish line there,
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: and listen, Jalen Hurts won. Jalen Hurts did win the
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: MVP of his Super Bowl, and Sam Donald almost lost
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: out to a kicker. It was a running back who
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: didn't even score a touchdown, did not get in the
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: end zone. That's how bad Sam Donald was in the
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: eyes of the voters for the MVP. And so that's it.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: And so Donald, listen, he hasn't sniffed that that air.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: He has not. And he was a passenger. He had
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: a middle seat, didn't even have an aisle seat or
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: a windows seat. That's it. And so for me, it
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: doesn't really change all that much. It wouldn't be all
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: that excited if you had Sam Donald as your quarterback.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: But I clearly I'm in the minority on that, based
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: on the prisoner of the Molmont syndrome, which is alive
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: and well with a lot of you idiots who love
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: loved Sam Donald all of a sudden. So again, if
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: I had just on my own, I'd pick Door C.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: But if you forced me to pick, I would take
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: between Jalen Hurts and Sam Donald. I would take Jalen Hurts.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: And that's it. Now, staying in the Pacific Northwest, some
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: other comments that got my attention. So we had the
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: Seahawks coach Mike McDonald who had the morning after the
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl conversation, and he was yapping yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: He was yapping about wide receiver Cooper Cup, and Cooper
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Cup did nothing amazing in the Super Bowl. The Seatows
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: offense was pretty blob He's kicked a lot of field goals.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: So the question was about what impact is now Cooper Cup.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: He won with the Rams when he was actually good
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: and now he sucks. But he won again with Seattle.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: So the question is what does this do following another
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: championship Cooper Cup was a part of. And so then
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: Mike McDonald got on the podium and started putting. Well,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: I guess he got on the point and then he
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: got down his knees. He wore some knee pads and
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: really laid into it for Cooper cups that he is
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: a force multiplier. He's a stud of a person and
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: a stud of a teammate. This should cement him in
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. Close quote question are you on board?
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Are you on board with Seahawks coach Mike McDonald's claimed
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: that Cooper Cup is now a lock for a gold jacket.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: Lock it up, lock it up. So my reaction here
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: the Seattle coach Mike McDonald out there peddling what I
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: call grade a farm to plate organic bologney. All right, again,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: that's grade a farm to plate organic bologney. Stay off
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: the weed. As some have said in the past there
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: at McDonald I as stand to get intoxicated in this case,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: not necessarily on the weed or the booze, intoxicated with
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: confetti and leftover gatorade things like that here. But let's
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: address this without being a prisoner of the moment. Cooper Cup.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: I don't hate the player. I like the player. I
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: like Cooper Cup. He wanted a magic carpet ride with
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: the Rams, and for one season he was the top
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: receiver in the NFL. As far as McDonald said, why
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: he's a stud teammate and all that stuff. Okay, well
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: that's great. Is there a nice guy wing at the
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: museum there in Cannon. I don't know. Maybe they have
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: a wing there it says, hey, this is where all
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: the nice people go. Then we can have our murderers
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: ring where they can you know, they can have people
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: that were involved in some serious crimes go over to
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: that side. Ojy's wing and Ray Lewis, where's the white suit? Ray?
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: He can be on that side of the Hall of Fame.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: But on the other side, we can have the nice
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: people and there's Cooper Cup and I don't think there
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: is one. Unfortunately, there is there a wing for one
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: hit Wonders in the NFL. Do we have a one
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: hit Wonders wing in the NFL? We don't, Okay, all right,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: So the cole Hard malor math is not in favor
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: of Cooper Cup. Just looking at Cooper Cup, it's not
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: in favor of him. And then you have just the
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: actual data, the Hall of Fame monitor where they track
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: you're based on a numerical equation whether or not you
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: are on the road to the Hall of Fame. So
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: to be a Hall of Fame receiver, it's according to
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: people the Pro Football Reference. A lot of nerds work
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: at Pro Football Reference. So according to the nerds, you
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: have to reach one hundred and one point seven to
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: get into the Hall of Fame, as at Pro Football
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: Wide receiver one hundred and one point seven. You want
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: to take a guess where Cooper Cup is no cheating.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: I know mister nice guy's about the cheat, so don't
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: do that, and Danny and Nashville's gonna cheat. Don't cheat.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: The correct answer Cooper Cup is at a thirty eight.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Thirty eight, all right, So I know I'm not a
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: math measure and I just do an overnight radio show,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: so what the hell did I know? But if you're
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: at thirty eight, you're long in the tooth. Now how
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: do you close the gap? And for those of you
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: in the back of the room who aren't paying attention
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: because you're actually working, that's not even the same zip code.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: That is not the same zip code. He's stuck in
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: the suburbs while the greats are at the Gala, and
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: they're at the Galla there. And so Cooper Cup his career,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: like many, he was a shooting comet and it was
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: magical with the Rams, bright and flashy and then gone
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: in a blink and that's it. And for all those
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: they said, well, the Rams shouldn't let this guy go.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: He's not that good. The RAMS have better wide receivers.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: They made the right decision. They made the Cooper Cup's
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: not that good anymore. And he wasn't that good in
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. There were no game breaking plays by
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: Cooper Cup. That's just the reality situation. So the idea is, well,
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: the Rams shouldn't have got rid of Cooper Cup. No,
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: they were right. He's not very good. That's it. And
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: his career comps Cooper Cup not exactly Randy Moss or
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: t O or Jerry Rice, more like Willie Golt and
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: Darryl Jackson if you remember him. So solid. Yeah, okay, good,
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: good run there for a couple of years. Gold jacket,
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: that's for Gayzy's what that is. That's for Gazy. So
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: the mal are verdict again, super is a team achievement. Oh,
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: you shouldn't say that. It's a team achievement. It's not
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: a lifetime accomplishment. It's like, yes, cool to have it,
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: but you don't have to have it. Hall of Fame's
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: individual greatness. So stop sniffing, sniffing the smelling salts, Mike
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: McDonald please. Yeah. So as a resume, there's a few
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: holes there. It's like certain types of Swiss cheese have
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: the holes there. Meanwhile, we go now to La La
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: Land in the hood and Ingleood and up to no good.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: The team that should be in San Diego has made
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: a move, as we have learned that Adam Gase crazy
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: Eyes is back in the NFL. And how sweet it
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: is if you didn't see this Adam Gase. Yeah, the
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: same guy that had the crazy eyes with the Jets
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: and then proved he couldn't coach with the Miami Dolphins.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: So sucked with two AFC East teams and has been
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: embargoed out of the NFL for years. He is back
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: his first coaching gig in five years. He was so bad?
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: How bad was he?
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: He was so bad, Adam Gase, that he had to
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: sit out five years, five years to get another job. Now.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh clearly has a soft spot in his heart
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: for failed coaches, and he hired Adam to join his
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: coaching staff there as a passing game coordinator. That sounds
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: like a no show job, all right. So question based
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: on the resume. Based on the resume, how did Adam
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: Gaze leave the no fly list? Because he was on
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: the no fly list for coaching gigs and returned to
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: NFL coaching with the Chargers. So Adam Gase, former Jets
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: and Dolphins coach, finessed his way, that's my word, finessed
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: his way back into the NFL using the halo effect.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: It doesn't work for the Angels in baseball. It does
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: work though, just being in the room with someone that's good.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: And then they elevate you. They elevate you the halo effect.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: Er go, he happened to be in the room when
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: Peyton Manning was on the good stuff from his wife
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: there according to the Dark Side documentary, and was lighting
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: the scoreboard up for the Denver Broncos in twenty thirteen.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: The Peyton Manning halo effect, which I know we are
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: thirteen years gone by that, and yet still that's something
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: case is the ultimate beneficiary of the coached a legend rule,
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: coached a legend rule in the NFL twenty thirteen Broncos.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: They said, all kinds of records. I don't know if
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: those have been broken. I don't think they have in
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: terms of points scored and all that pass yards, et cetera.
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: Et cetera.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: So even if even if Peyton was basically the coach
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: on the field and the resume line still works, it's
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: pure solid gold, still solid gold. And for a guy
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: like Harball's, although I would argue this is not so
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: much Jim Harbaugh, that this is not about trying to
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: pump up Justin Herbert, who's a lost puppy. When the
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: playoffs come around here, it's uh, you sad out. You
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: had the deed talks for five years. Adam Gaze, he
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: sat out for five years in NFL circles, five years
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: is again it's an internity. Five seasons have come and
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: gone without Adam Gaston. He was getting paid buco bucks
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: by these teams that were stupid enough to hire him
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: as a head coach. And that stanks. Ye, that's not
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: even even that not long. That stank from that two
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: and fourteen JET season. That does not just dissipate even
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: after five years here. So some clearly somebody with the
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: Chargers like, well, he's been rehabilitated now, Adam Gas and
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: all that stuff. And so it's a mix of tapping
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: in to a favor the good old boys network gob
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: and then that's the final piece with the halo effect
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: and whatnot. Here. So the Chargers new offensive quarter Mike McDaniel,
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: and he he's the guy Harbaugh just took off the
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: scrap heat from Miami. And you got Adam Gazon McDonald
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: who are or McDaniel rather, who are inter connected here.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: They're locked together like legos in the coaching web. And
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: Harbaugh's essentially what he's doing now, it would appear the
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: Chargers are running a support group for former Miami Dolphin
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: head coaches in LA. You're a former dolphin coach, you
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: can head up there, and I mean there's a lot
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: of former dolphin coach. If Brian Flores like he's we're
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: in Minnesota, but if he wants to come, they're having
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: a group group meeting there. Support group for former Dolphin
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: head coaches.

• 21:51
  Speaker 1: the games beginning, not the Olympic Games. No, no, no, no.
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: Now that that little pesky Super Bowl, which was a
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: dud is over with. Let the game beginning, the silly season,
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: the silly season. The chatter continuing for the second time
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: in the last couple of weeks. More noise coming out
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: of lost wages, Nevada, a kocoffney of sounds coming out
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: of Vegas. If you've not been following the story, perhaps not.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: We've learned now yet again that edge rusher Max Crosby,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: Mad Max Max Crosby, the man born to play for
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: the silver and black of pirate's life for me. Max
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: Crosby weapon he's not happy, and it has been repeated
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: that he face to face told Tom Brady good old
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: skinny jeans Tom Brady there, that he wishes to leave
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: the Raiders. Max Crosby does not want to be part
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: of the Raiders organization anymore. We report last a couple
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: of days here saying that Max Crosby told old Tom
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: Brady he will never play for the Raiders again from
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: an unnamed GM. An unnamed GM, that is a fact.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: He told them that he will retire before he ever
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: plays for them again. Max Crosby supposedly telling the Raiders
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: I'm out suckers, seel it. I had that part, but
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: the quote says, I'm not sure they're actually going to
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: trade him, they being the Raiders. Miles Garrett said the
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: same thing last year. We know how that ended up.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: So that is a good jumping off point. Let us
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: discuss the question what are the odds? What are the
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: odds that Max Crosby, the Raiders star edge rusher Max
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: Crosby ends up changing laundry this offseason. So my observations,
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: I've got marketing slogan, Disney storytelling, and Hogi Shop, and
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: we will combine all of these things together, and we're
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: gonna go one, two, three, and ab so is what
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: we're going to do. But we always start out with
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: number one. All right, So we own up the Mallor
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: Sports Book. Now I'm not associated with DraftKings or any
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: other legitimate gambling operation. This is the Malor Sports Book
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: and the Mallard Sportsbook. Gods, we have Max Crosby wearing
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: different laundry, changing laundry this offseason at minus one eighty,
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: minus one eighty the mallarods minus one eighty, that implies
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: a sixty five percent chance that he is gone. Gee
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: oh and eight gone Max Crosby. It's the part of
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: the movie where they're doing the saber dance. Right now,
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: they're saber rattling Max Crosby and his group. It's the
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: silly season. It's silly. It's the silly season of the NFL.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: So this is where you see those cryptic message that
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: get sent out on social media that he said, he said,
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: which are great for talk radio. They keep the VU
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: meter moving on talk radio. It's wonderful. So Crosby and
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: his guys are rattling the cage, if you will, rattling
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: the cage because he is Dny, all right. So he's
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: out and he's done. And he's also done with the
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: updated marketing slogan. And I don't know how this thing
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: got improved. I'm not sure what ad firm the Raiders use.
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: When I was a kid, I'm getting old, But when
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: I was a kid, the Raiders always went with the
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: commitment of excellence. And somewhere along the way when they
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: moved to Oakland into Vegas, they changed it up. And
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: now the commitment to excrement doesn't have the same ring
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: to it. But that's what the Raiders have done since
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: they were really twenty years plus, twenty years plus the
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: rich Gannon super Bowl where Barrett Robbins went to Tijuana
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: to enjoy some nice shows and whatever else he was doing,
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: and that whole thing. But it has been the commitment
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: to excrement for the Raiders. There pure organic excrement. And
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: that's just the way it is right now. And so
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: it's a vast wasteland, a dystopian world there in the desert.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: You've got Tom Brady who's quote running things but doesn't
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: want the title as the GM. So he hired a
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: buddy of his old college buddy to be the GM
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: there from and he's running the Raiders from, understand, from
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: his home in Miami, the Miami area, or the home
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: he's got in La or the place in Boston, or
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: northern California, anywhere he wants to be. The south of France.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: He's running the Miami Dolphin Miami, running the Raiders from Miami,
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: although he did at one point want to run the Dolphins. Meanwhile,
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: you've got he Tom Brady and his bff, Alex Guerrero.
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: The con artist Alex Guerrero, not my opinion, it's a fact.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: He was convicted of it, roaming the halls in a well.
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: He's like the wellness ghost, Alex Guerrero, and he's haunting whoa, whoa. So,
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: if I'm Max Crosby, If I'm Max Crosby, i am
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: looking around. I'm saying the Patriots they need some help
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: on the defense was pretty good, but they could use
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: some more help there. You look around and say, would
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: the Raiders trade me to an AFC team? They certainly
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: wouldn't trade you to an AFC West team. So you
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: can eliminate the Chiefs or your Max Crosby. What about
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: the Ravens or Buffalo or how about in the NFC
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: the Lions of the Rams one of those teams. So
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: what about that? Anyone with a pulse? Anybody want Max Crosby?
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: Does anyone want Mad Max there? And what about the Raiders?
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: They've got the number one pick coming in there. Oh,
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: it's so exciting. Fernando Mendoza, the new Messiah, the new
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: Savior of the Raiders, the old Hoosier. Yeah, appears that
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: that is not enough. Max Crosby has seen the highlight reel,
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: the sizzle reel of Fernando Mendoza, and it's clearly not impressed.
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: He still wants to go to divorce court there and
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: Vegas is shopping to see right now what they can
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: get in return. And we're just beginning the silly season today,
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: the tenth day of February. As we're doing this in
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: real time. So we have the franchise tag period which
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: is upcoming here the next couple of weeks in February.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: Then we've got the free agency, first wave of free
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: agency in March, always a fan favorite. And then we
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: have the combines which will be in March and the
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: lead up to the NFL Draft in April, all blocks,
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: building blocks on the silly season in the NFL. Now
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: page two, staying in Nevada, staying in the desert. There,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: the Raiders did make it official they welcome the Seahawks
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: offensive coordinator Clint Kubiak, the latest NEPO baby to get
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: a head coaching job in the NFL. And they posted
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: a twenty one second video clip of his family, Clint
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: Kubiak and he planing on a private plane because God forbid,
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: you fly Southwest Airlines private plane in Vegas, all dotting
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: the Raider gear, which can be getting. You can get
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: that stuff now at a discount store anyway. They have
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: the desert backdrop there and right oh, the arrival. Now
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: the Raiders are Now it's serious. Now, it's serious. So
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: Kubiak thirty eight. He landed just hours after the Seattle
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: Seahawks defense won the championship, not the offense, the defense.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: You don't win championships on field goals. You went on
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: defense in this case. And so super Bowl six he
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: goes the way of Seattle and the announcement, the post
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: on social media, all that stuff, and that's where we are.
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: So the question, what is your early assessment? What is
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: your early assessment on Tom Brady's vision? Oh, what a
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: vision it is. Tom Brady with Clint Kubiak, who he
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: slobbered all over was ill legal on the Bible belt.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: What Tom Brady was saying about Kubiak on the broadcast
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: is when heed the Seahawks forty nine er or a
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: RAM game? Actually a Ram game anyway? So what is
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: your assessment of tom Brady's vision with the former now
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: Seahawks offensive when air Clint Kubiak now in charge with
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: the Raiders? So vague? If you're a fan of the Raiders,
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: and most of the people that have season tickets to
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: the Raiders just do that for financial gain because you
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: can sell the tickets to fans of other teams and
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: they'll buy them, and so maybe you go to one
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: game a year and you make some money on the
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: other ones and all that stuff. But if you're a
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: real Raider fan, you should be petrified, terrified and zombie
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: fied at this particular point. In honor of the late
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: great Brian Wheeler Boom Shaka Laca, the Portland Trailblazer's broadcaster
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: of years gone by, But this is paranoia is what
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: this is, right, This is a it's pattern recognition. At
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: this point, we are now at pattern rec cognition is
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: where we are Tom Brady the puppeteer behind the curtain,
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: and you look at this and then he's like, well,
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: you know, he's essentially telling the Raider fans trust me brawl,
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: trust me brawl. That's the message from Tom Brady because
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: you just hired a coach, you just picked a quarterback
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: a year ago, and they were two of the worst.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: Pete Carroll and Gino Smith and Raider Nation, where have
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: you gone? Their lonely eyes, they pretty much roll their
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: eyes at this particular point, they roll their eyes and said,
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: we've heard that before. We've heard that one before. It
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: appears to Tom Brady's a big fan of the Disney
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: storytelling though, and the Raiders in general love the fairy tale.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: You don't think of the Raiders as a franchise that
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: would embrace the fairy tale. But this feels like the
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: Princess and the frog right that you have. You know,
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: in Vegas, you have to keep kissing toads and you're
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: waiting for Prince Charming to show up, and it's not
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: happening and since twenty twenty one, when the Raiders were
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: forced to get rid of John Gruden because of a
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: strategic dump to the New York Times in the Wall
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: Street Journal by someone some mystery person at the NFL.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: So Gruden got whacked. Then they had Rich Basakia, the
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: special Teams coach, but they didn't want him around, so
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: they hired Josh McDaniels. Because they wanted a guy that
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: sucks as the head coach. They hired Josh McDaniels. He
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: sucked as a head coach as the promotion for his work.
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: And then they hired Antonio Pierce who was born to
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: be a Raider until they had to coach games, and
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: then he sucked. And then lately it's been Pete Carroll
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: and now it's this Jackwagon who comes in from Seattle
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: that is not exactly a vision board.
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: It is not.
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: It's like a yard sale type thing. It's like, hey,
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: you want this how much? I don't know what's your
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: best offer? Two bucks? Okay, you got that two bucks
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: right there. Done So. Clint Kubiak, who will be the
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: latest head coach to get the baptism by fire, hired
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: as a sink or swim option and he gets a
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: five year contract. So this is an a one of
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: these guys gonna suck and then get paid out for
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: at least three years. And you got a rookie quarterback
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: on the way, what could possibly go wrong? Rookie coach
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: as a head coach, and a rookie quarterback in Fernando Mendoza,
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: the stop Watch, the doomsday clock, tic tic tic tic
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: tic tic tic tic tic tic tic tic tic tic
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: tic tic dick, just like that. And so don't be shocked.
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: The word that I'm hearing from reliable or unreliable sources
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: is that Gary Kubiak will parachute in. That's the daddy,
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: and he will be the adult in the room, going
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: to hire your dad to help you out. That's the
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: new trend in the NFL. Worked out so well in
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: Nashville when the Titans hired Bill Callahan to babysit Brian
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: Callahan and then they're all gone. Now see you later
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: on that the father son football combo in the NFL,
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: because apparently experience is hereditary. Now, oh, I guess that's
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: the way this works here. It's the NEPO baby way. Oh,
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: the NEPO baby way. It's organizational roulette, and the Raiders
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: are betting on green, not zero green double zero. That's
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: where the Raiders are betty. Meanwhile, we go back to
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, the losing locker room, the New England
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: side of things. Here. After his historically historically bad performance
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: on the big stage, the Patriots top draft pick from
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: the previous NFL draft to first round pick, top ten pick,
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: decided that he was too good to answer any questions,
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: and this has created a bit of a firestorm. So
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: the question Patriots first round pick offensive tackle Will Campbell
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: leave from baton rouge. So will Campbell declining to speak
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: to the media after a very rough outing at Super
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: Bowl sixty? What is your position on this? So we
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: watched Will Campbell who had one of the worst performances
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: ever for an offensive lineman, although he wasn't helped out
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: by Drake May who appeared to forget how to get
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: rid of the football and a rapid amount of time. Anyway,
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: the point is that if you look at the NERD stats,
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: Will Campbell allowed fourteen pressures. That is not blocking much
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: of anything. In fact, if you look at the numbers,
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: that is the worst performance since the NERD takeover in
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: the NFL. It's like a revolving door at a like
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: a Macy's back of the day there and what are
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: you doing? And so Will Campbell does he answer any questions?
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: Does you say, well, this is what happened, that's what No, no, no,
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: he ducked out from the media. I have nothing to say.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: He slinked out the back door of the locker room
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: and like a thief in the night and said, I'm
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: out of here. See later, suckers. Because he is softy mixed,
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: soft is what he is. And so we advise, now
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: Will Campbell should open up his own Hogi shop and
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: forget the turkey or the pastrami, the corned beef sandwich. No, no, no,
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: Will Campbell should sell one sandwich and one sandwich only
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: based on his performance in the Super Bowl. The fluffer
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: Nutter sandwich. That's it. Have you ever had a fluffer
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: Nutter sandwich? You've not, Well if you watched the performance
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: of Will Campbell. He served up a fluffer Nutter sandwich
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl. That's the one I believe with
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: the marshmallow fluff is the fluffer Nutter And then got
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: peanut butter on one side. And you got the marshmallow fluff
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: stuff on the other side. And that's it. And then
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: he did the double vanishing actors because not only during
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: the game, but he then left after so zero accountability,
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: no accountability, just a total vanishing act from Will Campbell there,
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: not only during the game and then leaving after the
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: game and not not saying anything. So accountability is a
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: it's kind of a big deal in that business. It's
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: a big deal, and not even most businesses, it is
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: a big deal. Like every once in a while, we
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: go on the air and we bomb for four hours,
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: four hours. We just absolutely drop a bomb on you,
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: just terrible, and we're not hiding in the bathroom sucking
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: our thumb in the fetal position. We come back and
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: do it again the next day. And that's how that works.
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: And that's it. And you take the good, you take
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: the bad, and that's how it works. And if you're
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: Will Campbell, you go out, you get pulverized, which he did.
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: And then you refuse to answer some questions, well, all
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: you have to do is say a bunch of cliches
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: and everyone's fine with that. No one says they want
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: legitimate answers. They just want you to play the game.
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: It's all sauce. It's weak sauce, it's all of that.
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: Show weekdays at two a I'm Eastern, eleven pm Pacific.
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: It's Mallard. They got the end to the third degree.
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: This is one big Ben gets grail Kopalu.
• 38:10
  Speaker 4: Aj Brown appeared on MICHAEH.
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: Parsons podcast over the weekend and said that he is
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: excited to play in the eagles new offense. Ben, do
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: you expect a bounce back season from him?
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: Well, he's saying that, but the silly season is just
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: beginning here, Coop. I think there's a better chance that
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: the Eagles actually do end up trading aj Brown between
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: now and right before the NFL Draft. I'd be surprised
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: if he's back. He's caused problems the last couple years.
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: They were able to overcome it and win the Super Bowl.
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts is still there. His issue seems to be
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: with Jalen Hurts, So good luck on that. I say
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: no on the bounce back, at least not in an
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: Eagle uniform.
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: Next, it was reported this weekend that Derek Carr could
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: make a comeback if presented with the right situation and
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: coaching staff, Ben, do you think the right situation and
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: coaching staff will present itself?
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: No, that didn't. The Bengals content Derek Carr and say hey,
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: you want to play for the and the Colts contacted
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: him and said hey, you want to play for the Colts.
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: He said no. And at the time, Indianapolis was a
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: playoff team when Daniel Jones Danny Dimes got hurt and
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: the Bengals were still in contention. At the time Burrow
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: got hurt, there was some math that could make the play.
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: So I don't believe he wants to play. If he
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: wanted to play, why would you not come back last
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: year and take one of those opportunities and chat a
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: cherry pick a team that's better. And why would the
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: like Sumba said that he'll go back to the Raiders,
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: why would the Raiders want him back next?
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: The Pirates have signed Marcelo Zuna to a one year,
• 39:35
  Speaker 3: twelve million.
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: Dollars time the women at CHLDRED.
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: That's right, Dad, it's in an offseason that sees Pittsburgh
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: actually spending money on the roster. And do you think
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: they can make a playoff push while Paul Skeins is
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: in his mind.
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: I have a crystal ball. I'm never wrong about these things, Coop. So,
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: the Pirates did sign Marcelo Zuna, and he's going to
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: be on the team until July thirtieth or thirty first,
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: to trade dead line whenever that is. And they're counting
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: on Ozuna hitting a bunch of boppers, being a big
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: bopper there in Pittsburgh, and then right around the trade
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: deadline they will flip him for some low level pitcher
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: who will never make it in the major leagues. That's
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: the Pirates plan. They're not actually trying to win. They're
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: not anyway there. It is Mallard to the third degree.
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: How did we do?
• 40:21

• 40:24
