  Speaker 1: Oh, what is going on? Welcome in. I hope your
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: early morning hours are going great so far. Lots to
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: get to in the wei hours here on Fox Sports Radio,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: lots of ball on the brain. I wanted to dive
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: into this because Mike Sando, he used to work at ESPN.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: He works for the Athletic now, but he's done his
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: QB tiers list for the twelfth straight year. So we'll
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: talk to fifty NFL coaches, GMS, former GMS executives, all
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: these people involved in the NFL, and he'll get their
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: anonymous comments about current NFL quarterbacks and then they're ranked
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: into one of five tiers. But the comments are what
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: are really interesting to me. They stand out the most.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: And so I was thinking about going with the twenty
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: twenty four quarterback draft class, the six first round picks
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: right from that draft, all those quarterbacks that got taken
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: in the first round, because some of the comments are
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: pretty freaking interesting. Man, A couple of them stand out
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: a lot, and so I'll just kind of start an order,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: like I'll start with the Caleb Williams. Now, there were
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: a couple of comments on both sides. There were some
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: positive comments. By the way, probably the worst tees in
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: radio history. Man, that clock was tiken abnormally fast last hour.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: You know, I thought I had like ten seconds. Turned
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: out those ten seconds evaporated very quickly. It is my
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: fault completely, But I was trying to say some scathing
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: some scathing comments and some glowing compliments. So it's a
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: combination of both, right, So Caleb Williams, here's one. On
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: the positive side. This wasn't as eye opening, but kind
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: of interesting. There was a defensive coordinator in the NFL
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: talking about Bear's quarterback, Caleb Williams, and this defensive coordinator said,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: he's very talented. Ben Johnson is more under center. He
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: likes to have his quarterbacks under center. Think of Jared
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Goff the Lions. He's rarely in shotgun, almost always behind
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: the center or under the center. I should say Caleb
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: is more of a shotgun quarterback. So that dynamic is
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: going to be interesting to me. This defensive coordinator says,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: I would not be shocked if the kid plays well.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Ben is good, he can adjust. I'm sure they will
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: find a happy medium somewhere. So I think that's an
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: interesting point to make, where Ben Johnson likes to have
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: his quarterback under center more and Caleb Williams operates in
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: the shotgun a ton. That's what he did almost exclusively
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: in college at USC. So it was a compliment but
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: kind of like a red flag at the same time.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: Now this one is that's about as glowing as it gets.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Now we get to the scathing comments. These are the
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: good ones, right, So here's another defensive coordinator on Caleb Williams.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Listen to this. He's got the talent to go up
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: in terms of, you know, the quarterback rankings, but in
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: terms of processing ability and getting the ball out of
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: his hands, it was the worst we played against. He
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: just holds the ball forever. I'm thinking the ball should
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: go right there, throw it, throw it, and he did
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: not throw it. That's a defensive coordinator. Think about that.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: The defensive coordinator game planning against Caleb Williams in his
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: head saying he should throw it, throw it, throw it.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: He wouldn't do it. So, yeah, man, that's a habit
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: that's got to be broken from Caleb Williams. There's no
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: doubt about that. The thing to me is it's like
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: he's just trying to hit a grand slam far too
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: often where he's just holding the ball waiting for the
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: big play, and it's like, you're much better off playing fast.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, you can look for a big play here
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: and there, but you can't do it as much as
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Caleb Williams has done it and be successful. It just
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: doesn't work like that. You got to play fast, take
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: the quick five yard out, little positive game, you know,
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: stay on schedule. If you're doing the baseball thing, you know,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: stop looking for ran slams. Like literally fouling a pitch
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: off can be a good thing during in that bat.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: It's not always going to be a home run or
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: a triple or you know something like that. It might
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: just be fouling a pitch off. That's kind of staying
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: on schedule in football, make it second in five instead
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: of looking for a fifty eight yard touchdown pass and
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: it's you know, second in fifteen because he got sacked,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: so he's got to play quicker. There's no doubt about that.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: There was one other head coach that said this about
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Caleb Williams. He's definitely a one talent, meaning like a
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Tier one talent. I just think it's going to take
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: him longer than Jaden Daniels. He is not playing fast
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: right now. There is something there. His processing to me
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: was alarming watching the tape. That's another head coach talking
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: about him, you know, and it's just a guy telling
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: you what he sees, what he thinks. Dane Brugler, he
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: does a really good job breaking down the NFL draft
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: for the athletic He produces the beast. He's got like
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: these extensive notes on all these NFL prospects. He's probably
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: working on next year's list right now. It's crazy. But anyway,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: he said this one time, and it certainly relates to
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Caleb Williams. You need quick minded players, and the way
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: he broke it down, he was like, you'd rather have
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: a Jeopardy champion, you know, quick, quick thinking, fast, fast
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: at quarterback than a four point zero student. At four
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: point oh student. That's great, but you don't have time
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: in the NFL. You could be a four point oho student,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: very bright, but if you're kind of slow with your
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: decision making as an NFL quarterback, forget it. It's a rap.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: You're going nowhere. And so both things apply to Caleb Williams.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Got to be a whole lot faster, you know, get
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: rid of the ball process. Faster, stop looking for home
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: run plays. I think that can do him a lot
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: of good in year two. Now, some other qbs in
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: the draft class, the number two pick Jaden Daniels, you
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: would imagine it's very positive. He had a spectacular rookie season.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Some of these stats are just ridiculous with what he
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: was able to do. Where you know, he became the
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: only rookie starting quarterback in the Super Bowl era to
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: reach a conference championship game without a top defense. The
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: Washington Commanders, they ranked twenty fourth in defensive EPA per play.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: It's like expected points added. You're just talking about like average,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: and where they are in terms of their average. They
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: were twenty fourth defensively and they're in the NFC title game.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: That's insanity. What he was able to do his rookie
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: year was just crazy. But you know, the comments are
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: very positive. There's a defensive coordinator on Jaden Daniels saying
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: what I respect most is it never seems too big
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: for him. He would stand in the pocket and deliver
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: the ball. Once we saw him running around, it was okay,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: he's going to be a problem. And that's exactly what
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: Jaden Daniels is. Man he is a problem. So all
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: of it was positive that there weren't too many naysayers.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: I don't know all time rookie season, need to see more.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: All the comments were pretty positive with Jaden Daniels, Drake May,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: third overall pick last year's draft. So here's one that's positive.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: We'll start with that. As an offensive coordinator, he says
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: of Drake May, his team was so bad Vince Lombardi
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: couldn't have gotten that team any more wins than they got.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: May has promised there is talent, there is ability. I
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: think he looked very natural at the position. Okay, here's
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: a not so complimentary comment. This is a defensive coach
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: whose team faced May, so he pushed back on this
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: early excitement as far as Drake May is cons earned.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: This defensive coach said, I remember coming out of our
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: game and people were like, oh, we saw the future,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, I don't know about that. He made
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: about three throws. Let's not Winston wolfit yet, is what
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: that defensive coach said. So not buying into the hype
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: just yet. Not a believer as of right now. Another one,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: there's nothing to say about JJ McCarthy. He didn't play
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: last season, right, so the jury still out on him.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: As far as Michael Pennix Junior goes, there was an
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: offensive coach that said small sample size, but I thought
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: the guy played really well in that two minute drill
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: against Washington. How you play in two minute is the
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: X factor for quarterbacks in the NFL. For a young guy,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: he went in there and he was slinging it. I
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: think he can win. I think you can win with
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: him in a healthy run game. So they have positive
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: feedback on Pennix Junior. This one stopped me in my tracks.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: This is about Coopskuy bow Knicks, who played very well.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: He was among the quarterbacks from the twenty twenty four
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: draft class. He ranked second only behind Jaden Daniels with
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: this QB tiers list from Mike Sando, so you know,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: ranked pretty highly among those twenty twenty four guys. There
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: was a coach that was talking about bow Knicks overtaking
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Jaden Daniels this year. Okay, that's what the coach said.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: What we are going to see is Sean Payton's ability
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: to develop a quarterback relative to Cliff Kingsbury's ability to
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: do that. I'm interested in seeing who is able to
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: grow the most this coming year. I actually think bow
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Knicks is going to win out in that And that's like, WHOA,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: all right, now you could I would need a follow
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: up question basically because you could look at this and
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: really break down each word where it's like, okay, so
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: you're saying, you see where bo Nicks is right now,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: where Jaden Daniels is right now, and you see bow
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: Nicks growing more than Jayden. Doesn't think how special Jaden
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: Daniels was last season, so he doesn't have that much
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: room for improvement. You know, he doesn't have that much
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: growing to do. Meanwhile, bow Knicks, who played well, he
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: does have more growing to do. So if you look
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: at it like that, is it based on where they
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: are and you see more growth from bow Knicks, Okay,
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: that's not as hard to buy. But if you're just
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: talking about bow Knicks basically surpassing Jaden Daniels each I E.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: I don't know about that man. That bar is high
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: with Jaden Daniels, so I would be selling that comment.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: But hey, listen. Another defensive coordinator talked about bo Nicks.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: He looks pretty sharp, he knows where to go with
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: the ball, he runs better, than you think. He throws
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: better than you think, he looks like. He is a
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: good competitor who makes people around him better. That is
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: what your quarterback has to do. So that's a defensive
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: coordinator with you know, pretty solid thumbs up for bow Knicks.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: It's just look, man, I I know Sean Payton's track record,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: and it speaks for itself what he's done with Drew
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Brees had a lot of offensive success. Now, Drew Brees
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: is an all time quarterback, right, so I don't know
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: that all of a sudden, bow Knicks is gonna resemble
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: Drew Brees or you know, make make a you know,
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: leap like that. Maybe not to the same level, but
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: you know, be one of the upper echelon quarterbacks. Just
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: because Sean Payton did great things with Drew Brees doesn't
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: mean that he's destined to do great things with bow Knicks.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: And look, man, like this Cliff Kingsbury thing. I get it,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: there are some red flags, but why do we put
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: everything on Cliff Kingsbury. You know what's funny to me
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: is if you look at this quarterback tiers list and
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: what some people say about Kyler Murray, and it's what
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: you would expect. It's like, the dude plays video games.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: Is he committed at all? He fades every single season,
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: So it's like, okay, why are we saying those things
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: about Kyler Murray and then just talking about Cliff Kingsbury
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: and you know, he just fades and oh you know Cliff,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: you know he had Kyler Murray. If you're talking about
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: trash about Kyler Murray, maybe it might have been more
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: of Kyler Murray's fault than Cliff Kingsbury's fault. Right, So
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: this idea that well, Cliff, he's had some shortcomings as
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: a coach before, so I don't know. Yeah, maybe it's
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: going the air was pointed down with Jayden Daniels. After all,
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: It's like, dude, he was a rookie with the Cliff
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: Kingsbury who maybe you're not sold on, and he overcame
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: all of that as a rookie, Jayden Daniels did, So
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: I don't know why you'd still be like, well, I mean,
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: you know, Sean Payton, Cliff Kingsbury. I think that's just
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: overstating it myself, But hey, what do I know? These
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: are coaches talking about this stuff. I just think Jayden
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: Daniels is special man and for quarterbacks to overtake him.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: I've got Jaden Daniels, this top five guy, and I'll
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: get to that a little bit more in depth later
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: in the show. But I think he's that good already.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: I really don't need to see years and years and
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: years and years. I can understand how some people would.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: I get it. It's a short sample size, but it
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: was that special. And like one of the coaches said,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: when you see the run pass mixture, Lamar Jackson was
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: the only quarterback to rush for more yards than Jaden
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: Daniels last season. Daniels rushed for almost nine hundred yards.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: And he's got a great feel too. It's like he's
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: not looking to run all the time, he's not looking
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: to just primarily throw, like he's got a great feel
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: for what he should be doing on that particular play.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: And that sas a rookie. He has a feel look
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: like a five ten year veteran as far as Fueld goes.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: So I could not be more impressed with Jaden Daniels.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: I'd be very surprised if he took it takes a
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: significant step back. And although I was impressed with bow Nixt,
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: I don't make it sound like I wasn't. I just
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: don't see him making a leap where bow is surpassing Jayden.
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: I don't see that. But there you go. A few
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: comments to chew on right there. Coming up next, man,
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: Normally I don't find this interesting at all, but there
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: was one nugget related to this story that I found
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: to be incredibly interesting, so I'll share that with you next.

• 15:45
  Speaker 1: did you know this coop that uh, mister nice guy
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: used to go back with us years and years ago.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: I saw his handle is turned to not so mister
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: nice guy. I think it is, at least it starts
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: off that way. Did he turn heel? Did he go
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: to the dark side on us over here?
• 16:00

• 16:08
  Speaker 5: let me double check.
• 16:09

  Speaker 1: version of mister nice guy.
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: I guess.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: So wow, what a waste of time. But anyway, it
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: just it popped into my head because you know, it
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: was probably the impostor, I would imagine, but one of
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: the most recent times I filled in for Ben, it
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: was probably the impostor. Mister nice guy was like, geez,
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: can you let the music breathe a little bit before
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: you start talking? Gosh. It was basically like, I'm like,
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: what happened to my guy, mister nice guy? Right, we're
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: doing weekend overnights years ago? Mister nice guy was awesome?
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: Ye yeah, big time. Okay, well, I'll be on the
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: lookout for the impostor the low life. That wow, if
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: you don't know any better, it's like I thought that
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: was mister nice guy. He went to the dark side.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: Well good, I feel better that he hasn't, at least
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: I hope he hasn't.
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: Or has he?
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: Well, that's what if both of them have. It's a
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: you know, a tag team. Not good can only cross
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: our fingers. That's not the case. Before I get to
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: the militia. One thing. Let me pay this off where
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: I typically don't find this interesting at all, and you're
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: probably like, well, then why would you be talking about it? No,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: because I found something interesting about this subject. I typically
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: don't care about whatsoever. These lists come out, you know,
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: at some point during the year, probably around this time,
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: and it lists how much franchises in pro sports are worth.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: So it's like, the average NFL team is worth seven
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: point one to three billion dollars. That's pretty crazy, just
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: the average team is worth that much. Now when you
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: see like it's broken down in many different ways, and
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: most of it I just don't care about even a
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: little bit. Where this list is like, okay, the Cowboys
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: lead the way again. They're valued at twelve point eight
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: billion dollars. And then there are a couple other teams
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: that have crossed the ten billion dollars threshold. The Rams
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: have done that ten point four billion, Giants ten point
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: two billion. This to me is just like le it's
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: white noise. It's like, Okay, we get it, they're worth
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: a lot of money. Great, what else you got for me?
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: You know? But what stood out to me was this
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: little nugget where the Bengals. They're the team that's worth
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: the least in the NFL. They're still worth five point
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: five billion dollars the Cincinnati Bengals. But this nugget is
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: what really stood out. So the Bengals, even though they're
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: in last place in terms of value among all NFL franchises,
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: five point five billion dollars, that's more than every NHL team.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: That's more than all but four MLB teams, and that's
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: more than all but seven NBA teams. Think about that.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: That blows my mind. Where you're the you know, the
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: runt of the litter, basically the Bengals in terms of
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: what that franchise is worth. But it's still worth more
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: than all but four MLB teams. Only four teams in
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: Major League Baseball are worth more than the last place
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: Bengals in the NFL, and then the NBA. The NBA
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: has only seven franchises that are worth more than the Bengals.
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: That's it. They have twenty three franchises that are worth
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: less than the last team in terms of NF value.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: That is wild to me. Like, we get it, we're
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: football obsessed. We understand that football is king, NFL is king,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: but man when you break it down in some of
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: those ways, it's still staggering to me. Like the least
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: valuable is more valuable than almost every MLB franchise. That's
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: just like wow, Like these I can just picture these
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: commissioners and these you know, these other team owners of
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: like NBA MLB squads. You can talk to Manfred or
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: Adam Silver and it's just like oh, yeah, yeah yeah,
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: NFL yeah yeah yeah. You know, it must be so
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: annoying for those guys to hear about this all the time,
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: you know, Like they came out with the the Christmas
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Day slate. I think it was Fan Duel tweeted this
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: out today and it just broke down how the games,
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: you know, when they're scheduled and the over lap, and
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: it's I just feel bad for the NBA. I love basketball.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: I love the NBA. You know I say it. You
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: don't get a whole lot of people saying that proudly.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: I do. I love the NBA, not like football, And
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: I just feel bad for the NBA when you look
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: at this Christmas Day slate, all the NBA games are
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: gonna be on ABC, which is pretty cool, right, It's
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: on network television all five games, boom, just keep it
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: locked on that. You have to say, is this on ESPN?
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: Is it on ESPN two? Is this the ABC gat Nope,
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: everything on ABC won't matter. They'll still get their teeth
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: kicked in. It's like, so it starts off at noon,
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: calvs Nicks, Okay, one pm, Cowboys Commanders flip, you know,
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: flip over the ball, and then you know it's a
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: Spurs thunder that probably wrap up right before kickoff of
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: Lions Vikings, which is another really good game on Christmas Day.
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: So it's like MAVs Warriors year ratings just got slashed
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: in half, most likely cause you're going head to head
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: with Lions Vikings. And then the nightcap Rockets at the Lakers. Right,
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: you see KD going against lebron squad Luca on the floor.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: All right, we get we're cooking with grease over here.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: Well yeah, like fifteen minutes later, it's gonna be Broncos
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: at the Chiefs. So yeah, have fun with that, NBA,
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: have fun with that. It's it's a rough reality right here.
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: You can put all your games on ABC. Not gonna matter,
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: not gonna matter, Your your audience is still gonna get
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: crushed happens every time. But the point is, like Adam Silver,
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: NBA team owners when they're like, oh yeah, cool, you know,
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: just just when we're you know, we've already had a
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: bunch of gut punches and we know our Christmas Day
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: ratings are going to pale in comparison to the NFL.
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: Now we get this, what franchises are worth? You're telling
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: me we only have seven NFNBA franchises worth more than
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: the Bengals that are the least valuable NFL team. Cool. Great,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: very uplifting news. Here on a Thursday, you know, Lett
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: go out to the phones. Here the militia is waiting
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: on hold patiently. I appreciate that. My guy Andre is
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: in mass He's got thoughts. What's going onre.
• 23:12
  Speaker 6: How you doing? Thanks for taking the call. Let's say
• 23:14
  Speaker 6: the NFL is King Willis acknowledges this will see.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you this last time, Willis? What
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: kind of what kind of dog is this? Andre?
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: Will Willis?
• 23:25
  Speaker 6: You can hear the energy. Yeah, he's a malanof And
• 23:29
  Speaker 6: I didn't know what malanol was. You're getting a taste
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: of it.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: Malanol.
• 23:34
  Speaker 6: Those are the canine police dog.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: Oh wow, Okay, down, he's up in arms.
• 23:39
  Speaker 6: There's no intruder here in Touristown, which is good, quiet night,
• 23:43
  Speaker 6: Uh in tourst Town, and so willis Uh. He barks
• 23:47
  Speaker 6: and he'll continue to bark. But we got to get
• 23:48
  Speaker 6: him a Stacker Rudy to calme him down so we
• 23:50
  Speaker 6: can get back to the sports takes there.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: You go, nice, Yeah, you get him.
• 23:53
  Speaker 6: A Stacker Rudie. But yeah, he's he's a loyal you know,
• 23:57
  Speaker 6: he's obviously energetic, fired up late at night, but he's
• 23:59
  Speaker 6: a rescue from Georgia and didn't know what Malana meant.
• 24:04
  Speaker 6: You know, I'll get to my sports take, but I've
• 24:05
  Speaker 6: learned that it's the K nine military dog. So he's
• 24:08
  Speaker 6: a shepherd in a black lat mix. So he's black,
• 24:11
  Speaker 6: you know, mid size. You know, he's fired up, he's
• 24:14
  Speaker 6: you know, and he will work for Stacker Rudy's. But
• 24:18
  Speaker 6: it turns of the NBA and Adam Silver. You know what,
• 24:21
  Speaker 6: can we say, no shame in their game?
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 24:23
  Speaker 6: They're not the NFL. Nobody's the NFL. Roger Goodell has
• 24:26
  Speaker 6: that ship on their way to a twenty five billion
• 24:29
  Speaker 6: dollars you know, annual revenue. You know, and you look
• 24:34
  Speaker 6: at the Dallas Cowboys, Jerry Jones with the constant soap
• 24:36
  Speaker 6: offera there worth eleven twelve twelve billion dollars in and
• 24:40
  Speaker 6: amongst themselves. And Roger Goodell, you know, not satisfied. Like
• 24:43
  Speaker 6: we learned from the wire, he's coming for the Christmas
• 24:46
  Speaker 6: Day corners. Christmas used to be the purview of the NBA.
• 24:49
  Speaker 6: Roger Goodell said, no, we're taking those corners as a matter.
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: If Christmas is on a Tuesday or Wednesday, you know,
• 24:54
  Speaker 6: now we're gonna have NFL games on Christmas to cut
• 24:57
  Speaker 6: into even those revenues. And Adam Silver had to dink
• 25:00
  Speaker 6: and duck right because the TNT games are on Thursday night.
• 25:04
  Speaker 6: But he saw that Thursday night football plus with Bezos,
• 25:07
  Speaker 6: even though the NFL, NBA has to deal with Bezos
• 25:09
  Speaker 6: because he's taken over the world through sports, amongst other things.
• 25:13
  Speaker 6: But the NBA moved their Thursday night games to Tuesdays
• 25:16
  Speaker 6: until the until the NFL season's over, right, So they're
• 25:19
  Speaker 6: kind of ducky and were running scared and there's nothing
• 25:21
  Speaker 6: though you can do about it. Football is king. I
• 25:23
  Speaker 6: just think you have to be strategic and try to win,
• 25:26
  Speaker 6: try to win where you can uh and go from there.
• 25:29
  Speaker 6: So I don't think it's one of these things is
• 25:30
  Speaker 6: that there's no competition. There's never been a competition college
• 25:33
  Speaker 6: basketball NBA like football is king. Let's just recognize that.
• 25:37
  Speaker 6: And goodell, he's he's been very assertive and proactive. Uh
• 25:41
  Speaker 6: so you have to kind of tip it sat. You know,
• 25:43
  Speaker 6: they're throwing it light around and they're winning. The will says,
• 25:45
  Speaker 6: throw your weight around and you get the W. So
• 25:48
  Speaker 6: I just still I'm gonna I'm an NBA guy. I'm
• 25:50
  Speaker 6: not a football you know. You know, I can't handle
• 25:52
  Speaker 6: the frozen conjure and all that hitting out there. But
• 25:54
  Speaker 6: I still think the NBA is healthy, the MLB is healthy. Right,
• 25:57
  Speaker 6: the other major sports can still can survive, not to survive,
• 26:01
  Speaker 6: but thrive and contribute. But you got a you know, heavyweights,
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: heavyweights to class. We got to give that to get
• 26:07
  Speaker 6: down in the NFL. All right, thanks so much for
• 26:08
  Speaker 6: taking a call me and Willis.
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: We're going to see the next time.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: There you go. All right, yeah, have a good night.
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: You know there he is, Drey and Willis. How about
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: that canine military mix shepherd and black lab. There we go.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: I'll take a you go Chihuahua.
• 26:25
  Speaker 7: There, small and Cudlee.
• 26:27

  Speaker 7: I've had a couple. You have, Yeah, I had a
• 26:31
  Speaker 7: long haired had a short haired.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: Okay, Coop, you have any dogs ever?
• 26:38
  Speaker 5: Growing up? I had dogs?
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 26:40
  Speaker 5: Yeah, uh several Rottweilers. Oh really, a couple of labs.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: Nice. What were their names? I give you go in order?
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: What'd you have?
• 26:51
  Speaker 5: Uh? Let's see. My very first dog was Tasha. That
• 26:54
  Speaker 5: was a German shepherd.
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 26:56
  Speaker 5: Then we got Alex Lab mix Dakota pure yellow.
• 27:01
  Speaker 7: Is there such normal names?
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 27:03
  Speaker 7: Right, Like my dog's names were. Let's say I had
• 27:05
  Speaker 7: a cat named escabible. My dog names we had. We
• 27:10
  Speaker 7: had a kio like Bill and then yeah that's bad.
• 27:18
  Speaker 7: He sure did love his taco bell though.
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you have boring names.
• 27:23
  Speaker 7: Those were human names, yeah, I mean yeah right.
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: Then there was Jenny Jenny. That was dog Christina.
• 27:31
  Speaker 5: You know, I guess, I guess I always had like
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: dogs named like that. Wow, yeah, I mean the Kiara
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: was one, but that was that even that's like you
• 27:42
  Speaker 5: know people named Kiara, but that was after like the
• 27:46
  Speaker 5: lion king.
• 27:47
  Speaker 7: Okay, yeah, see that makes sense. Same with its Gus
• 27:51
  Speaker 7: was off of a real monsters.
• 27:54
  Speaker 5: From Nice you see Nice that.
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: I just had. And Buddy, who was psychotic. He was
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: an American Eskimo dog, like a little, you know, furry
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: white dog who was the nicest dog on the face
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: of the earth until I don't know, he turned like
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: one or two years old, and then he hated the world.
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: I don't know what happened to Buddy. He was psychotic.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: And then we had Migo. We had a Migo who
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: was the awesomest dog. He was a yeah, he was
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: really cool, he really was. He loved everyone. He was
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: an Australian Shepherd, but Migo was the best. But that
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: was it. Only had two dogs growing up, and then
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: I'd love to get another dog, but like moving around
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: like crazy, it's not the easiest thing to have a
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: dog while you're just moving here, there, everywhere. So haven't
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: had one for a little while, but hope to get one.
• 28:46
  Speaker 5: Cats are a lot easier.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: I want to adopt Oreo and then get a dog.
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: That would be a great game plan. I feel like
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: Oreo was awesome. She hung out. I was filling in
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: in the morning, like at two pros in the morning,
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: so Lorena and I were double headering it over here,
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: you know, early late night, but Orio was here. It
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: was cute actually, So she's just the neighborhood cat. I'm
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: like a proud father. You have to bear with me
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: over here.
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: It's not even my cat.
• 29:12
  Speaker 7: That's the best part. You're like the adopted dad. No
• 29:15
  Speaker 7: one asked you to be this person. You just are
• 29:17
  Speaker 7: this person.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, right, But Oreo is the best man. She just
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: comes over. She visits all the time. So what happened
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: was I heard a noise. Normally I can hear her.
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: She'll either meow outside or the screen door is kind
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: of like this wire screen door, and she'll either jump
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: up and scratch it or kind of just like claw
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: at it, you know. So it's kind of like how
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: she knocks, you know. And so I heard a noise
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: in the final hour of Two Pros and a Cup
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: of Joe. We were filling in in the morning on
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: Thursday morning, and and then it went to a commercial
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: and I just forgot, you know, I was doing whatever,
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: getting the next topic ready, whatever I was doing. The
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: show ended right, Lorena, and I'm like, let me just
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: check to see if Oreo, if she is on the
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: porch or not I opened the door. She's laying down
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: on the porch. Oh, she's out there for who knows
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: how long, just like, dude, open up, like I've got
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: headphones on, I can't hear that well. And so I
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: opened it up for she ate some food. She you
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: know that time, it's like six thirty in the morning,
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: and she's ready to you know, jump in cabinets and
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: be crazy and and so it got to a point
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: where she was about to leave.
• 30:29
  Speaker 7: So she got to go home for the night.
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: Had to go home, had to go kill something. I
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: don't know, right, she got a whole secret life.
• 30:37
  Speaker 7: I'm mad that she has another home that she goes to.
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: No, no, it's no, no, it's totally fine. But I
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: opened the door for her to go, and she took
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: one step outside and it was hot, you could feel said.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: And it was sunny too, Like Oreo just comes out
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: at night. She doesn't mess around with the sunlight. She
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: is black. Yeah, so she's like sunlight and me, no,
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: thank you. She took one step outside and she just
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: stood there and I was like, you don't have to go, Oreo,
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: and she's like, yeah, it's a good idea, and she
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: just turned right around and hung out all day. She
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: left it like ten pm, right before the show started tonight.
• 31:14
  Speaker 5: Well, yeah, what is it like one hundred and twenty
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: degrees out there?
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: It's pretty warm. Yeah, it's easily over one hundred.
• 31:20
  Speaker 7: I couldn't imagine what her beans feel like on that
• 31:23
  Speaker 7: hot cement, you know.
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, sometimes out Yeah, she'll walk in and she'll just
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: start licking her pause, you know, like her back pause.
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: She's like, it's hot.
• 31:35
  Speaker 7: You never be at a pool and you have to run.
• 31:38
  Speaker 5: Over to where like your toup.
• 31:39

  Speaker 1: Really, okay, yeah, we're I.
• 36:34
  Speaker 5: Mean not necessarily where I no longer think it's a

• 36:39
  Speaker 5: first time and I'm like, wow, that might be my
• 36:42
  Speaker 5: favorite movie of all time. And then I watched it
• 36:45
  Speaker 5: a second time. I'm like, Okay, it's a good movie.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know that I've ever done that, you know,
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: I can.
• 36:51
  Speaker 5: Think of one off the top of my head, which
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: and like I said, it's a great movie, but Django unchained.
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: Okay.

  Speaker 1: In the moment, I just.
• 37:24
  Speaker 5: Think I think I went into that one not knowing
• 37:28
  Speaker 5: what to expect, and I was, you know, pleasantly surprised,
• 37:34
  Speaker 5: and but I don't know, it's hard to put anything
• 37:36
  Speaker 5: over pulp fiction, like, well, I.
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: Mean, yeah, it's an all timer right, by the way,
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: I found the whole line here, Coop, this is Denzel's
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: that's twenty five thousand dollars Alpaca. You blot that s
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: you don't rub it, put the club soda on. There
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: is what he's that's the whole life, fairly, that's what
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: he's saying. In American Hustle, we recommend it in a
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: very good movie. Russell Crowe very good in that movie
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: as well, right, American Gangster, did I say Hustle?
• 38:06
  Speaker 5: Yeah, which is another good movie.
• 38:08
  Speaker 7: You know what do the Hustle?
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: There are a lot of people that talk trash about
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: American Hustle. I liked it a lot. Yeah, it was
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: good with Amy Adams performances. Yeah, yeah, Bradley Cooper's in that.
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: He's got a weird role in Lawrence, Jennifer Lawrence and
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: Christian Bale, Right.
• 38:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Christian Bale, who like gained like forty pounds for
• 38:27
  Speaker 5: that role.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: Yes, right, that's right. His love interest was Amy Adams
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: in that one. You know, I guess he had love interests.
• 38:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he was a Jennifer Broncos fan Amy Adams.
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: That's right, as you found out right, right and stuff
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: left and right. Here's here's a crazy betting story. This
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: is wild. So our guy Arnie Spanier, you know, another
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: host here on Fox Sports Radio. He texted me this
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: earlier in the day and it was a veteran Indiana.
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: I wish this was me, But this veteran Indiana he
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: bet on thirteen NFL preseason games. Last week he did
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: a thirteen leg parlay and he turned ten bucks into
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: almost thirty one thousand dollars. And I know, like, listen,
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: this is just like a rags to riches type story.
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: It doesn't happen commonly, but this one is an all
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: timer because of how he got there. So there was
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: one game, it was the Bears Dolphins. He just went
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: money line on. Thirteen games had a lot of upsets too,
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: at like six or seven money line upset wins, and
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: the Dolphins Bears game was a tie. So that game
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: gets thrown out right, it's basically no action, it's voided.
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: So now it's down to a twelve leg parlay. He
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: hit on everything else and he got saved by the
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: betting gods. Basically, this was that Falcons Lions game where
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: there was a scary injury right. There was this safety
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: for the Lions, Maurice Norris. The first play of the
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: fourth quarter, he goes in for a tackle. He runs
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: up from his safety position, he hits the running back
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: and his his neck kind of snaps back and he's
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: on the on the ground for like twenty minutes. They
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: stopped the game. The ambulance comes out, like all these
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: EMTs are there, they're taking care of him, so he
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: drives off the field. He gets driven off in the ambulance,
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: and the game they snapped the ball and they just
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: let the clock roll until they were like six and
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: a half minutes to go, and then the NFL called
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: it off. That's how he won. The game has to
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: be at least fifty five minutes and it didn't go
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: long enough, so that leg of the parlay was voided
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: and he probably would have lost. His team was losing
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: by seven points at the time. Who knows, We won't know,
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: but he might have won thirty thousand dollars thanks to
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: a game ending prematurely. That's insane, man,
