- 3:43over here. I told you when we were going to
- 3:46do this draft that I was not going to pick 53 players on a
- 3:50roster. So I already said it's your turn
- 3:53to do it. I will just play the roster when

- 4:40athletic head. As we all know, Jabba lost 30
- 4:43lbs. Congratulations to Jabba
- 4:45Chamberlain losing 30 lbs. You look damn good, man.
- 4:48You really do. Thanks.
- 4:49You look, it's great too, because I got one of those
- 4:52those, I don't know what they're viral, whatever, those walking
- 4:57treadmills too. But you don't need that.
- 5:00You're outside all the time I know, but like if if it's
- 5:03raining or something and you got like a meeting or something,
- 5:06it's nice to be able to get all your stuff done walk and still
- 5:09be able to be productive and oh so get some stuff done so wait a
- 5:13second. You got a treadmill, So when
- 5:15you're on a meeting call, you're going to be walking the
- 5:18treadmill. That's what you're going to be
- 5:19doing you're. Just going to be chilling.
- 5:20Out and nobody hears the treadmill in the background.
- 5:25Really, it's quiet. I'm always on a meeting when I'm
- 5:27on the treadmill and people say, how could you be on a meeting?
- 5:30I'm at the gym and I have my headsets that.
- 5:33Yeah, because you're at the gym. Yeah, but you can't hear
- 5:35anything because it's sound. What do they call it?
- 5:38The sound barrier earphones? Where you.
- 5:41Reducing or. No, no, no.
- 5:42It's like AI think that's I think that's a sham because you
- 5:45can still hear stuff. I yeah, probably you can hear
- 5:48stuff, but I can't hear nothing. It's like completely closed up
- 5:53air with nothing coming through those headsets.
- 5:56So I actually love doing those meetings when I'm on the
- 5:59treadmill now and and I've been on the treadmill practically
- 6:02five days a week. I'm going about 2 1/2 three
- 6:05miles a day and I am at 20. I think I said I was at 2:02
- 6:10today. I lost almost 3334 lbs.
- 6:14So at, I think two months ago I was 234, I dropped about 32 lbs.
- 6:20So I'm very happy. I had an A1C that was absolutely
- 6:24horrific and my doctor said I, I was pre diabetic so I had to do
- 6:29something about it. So I had to cut out some sugar
- 6:32drinks. So now I'm just going with the
- 6:34watering meal, ladies and gentlemen.
- 6:36So if you want to go to Walmart and get your meal, get the acai
- 6:40or the acai Berry and go over there.
- 6:43Actually, it's really delicious and it, there's no sugar in it,
- 6:46so artificial. What do they call that?
- 6:48Sweetener. So I absolutely.
- 6:51Or whatever it is. Yeah, it's sweetener.
- 6:53But my doctor says I could do it and I could take it and I've
- 6:56been doing it. So I've been doing it.
- 6:59Caffeine bot, baby. I I'm not a caffeine drinker.
- 7:02I'm not a coffee drinker. A coffee as the Bostonites or
- 7:07Boston, Boston Ice, as they say, it's coffee, not coffee.
- 7:12I I don't use coffee, by the way.
- 7:14I say coffee. So I try I'm going to correct my
- 7:17spelling in my my English language as fish is the quote UN
- 7:21quote teacher on on this quota over here today.
- 7:25So anyways, at 8:45 we'll be talking to Co founder of all 22
- 7:31fantasy football, Chris Lombardi.
- 7:32He's been on our show before we had his partner on the show.
- 7:35So that'll be fun. Mr. Kato or Kodo or whatever.
- 7:40Gremlin lover. The Gremlin lover.
- 7:42The Travis AKA Gremlin Hunter lover.
- 7:46And at 9:45, we'll be talking to former Falcons, Giants and
- 7:50Bagels linebacker Michael Boley. And by the way, Super Bowl
- 7:54champion Michael Boley. Thank you to Nathan for adding
- 7:58that beautiful guest to our list of great topics we have tonight.
- 8:04And Speaking of topics, Pablo Torre on The Athletic podcast
- 8:09Pablo Torre Finds Out, reported a bombshell story earlier on
- 8:14Tuesday suggesting the LA Clippers paid Kawhi Leonard $28
- 8:19million to work a no show job in order to pay him more than a Max
- 8:26contract allowed by the NBA salary cap when they signed him
- 8:31to an extension before the 2021 and 2022 season.
- 8:36The this situation revolves around the company Aspiration,
- 8:41which Clipper owner Steve Ballmer made a $300 million
- 8:46partnership with in I'm sorry within 2021, including a $50
- 8:51million personal investment. Aspiration went bankrupt and is
- 8:57under federal investigation with their Co founder already
- 9:01pleading guilty to two counts of wire fraud and defrauding
- 9:05investors and lenders of more than $248 million.
- 9:11Ballmer allegedly set up a four year, $28 million deal between
- 9:18between aspirations and Leonard's personal LLCKL two
- 9:23Aspire where he did not have to do anything and get paid, but
- 9:29would be voided if he left the Clippers.
- 9:33The timing and nature of the deal makes it look like Ballmer
- 9:39gave Kawhi an extra $28 million Max contract allowed in order to
- 9:45keep him in LA. The Clippers and Ballmer flatly
- 9:50deny any wrongdoing, but the NBA came out a few hours ago with a
- 9:56statement that the Clippers and this Kawhi Leonard situation are
- 10:01now under an NBA investigation. In 2000, when the Timberwolves
- 10:07were found to skirt the salary cap with Joe Smith, they were
- 10:13stripped of five first round picks, fine 3.5 million, and
- 10:18band coach Kevin McHale and owner Glenn Taylor for the year
- 10:24while avoiding Smith's contract. This is a very, very interesting
- 10:30story. And again, a story that Pablo
- 10:34Torre has come out with. Now when Pablo comes out and he
- 10:38investigates these stories, these stories obviously have
- 10:42some legs and has some back end to the story.
- 10:46Kawhi Leonard to me is one of my favorite players.
- 10:49I've been watching. Kawhi Leonard when he was
- 10:51drafted by the San Antonio Spurs, he won championships with
- 10:55the San Antonio Spurs. Then he went over there to
- 10:57Toronto and won a championship with Toronto and he had to
- 11:02decide where he was going to go. Now he wanted to go back to LA,
- 11:05as we all know, where he went to school.
- 11:08He went to San Diego State and he wanted to go back home and he
- 11:13wanted to be closer to home with his mom and his family.
- 11:16And it was between the LA Lakers and the LA Clippers.
- 11:19He didn't want to go to the Lakers, and one of the main
- 11:21reasons why he didn't want to go to the Lakers was because of
- 11:24LeBron James. So it was the LA Clippers or
- 11:28somewhere else, maybe Golden State because that's another
- 11:30California team. But the fact is he decided to go
- 11:35to the Clippers and a lot of people when he decided to go to
- 11:38Clippers were questioning why would he go to an organization
- 11:41that always loses when they had Doc Rivers and Chris Paul there
- 11:46and Lob City. It didn't work.
- 11:49It never worked, and we could go back in time for the Clippers
- 11:53organization. They were an absolute debacle.
- 11:57When you think about Kawhi Leonard, this guy was the best
- 11:59two way player in basketball at the time when he decided to go
- 12:03to LA. Now he had knee problems and
- 12:05before he signed the contract, there were questions on why the
- 12:09LA Clippers would give him an extension and give him a
- 12:12contract when they knew after bringing him to the organization
- 12:16he might need knee surgery. But nevertheless, adding a
- 12:20superstar player like Kawhi and the way the organization was now
- 12:24building through owner Steve Ballmer, a fairly new owner, one
- 12:29of the richest owners in professional sports, they needed
- 12:33a way to draw this man to the organization.
- 12:38And knowing that if they can set up some kind of flaw in the
- 12:45contract and create a company, a corporation called Aspiration,
- 12:51they can find a way to give Kawhi Leonard $28 million more
- 12:56where he would accept going to an LA Clipper team that
- 13:00obviously was in a rebuilding stage and obviously was trying
- 13:04to find a way to draw more superstars to come and play
- 13:07there. Kawhi Leonard is a guy that I'm
- 13:12not saying had anything fully to do with this because we don't
- 13:15know the full story, but we all know Steve Ballmer comes from an
- 13:19organization, a very well known organization, a computer
- 13:24organization called Microsoft and Bill Gates.
- 13:28If anybody knows about Bill Gates and his back end story,
- 13:32he's a very smart man, but he stole a lot of people's ideas.
- 13:36That's how he became rich. Now, just because you steal
- 13:40ideas and you bring it to the forefront does not mean you
- 13:43can't make billions of dollars off those deals.
- 13:47And that's what obviously Bill Gates did.
- 13:50But when you hear a story like this and you talk about the past
- 13:54of what the NBA has done to organizations, including, as we
- 13:58said, the Timberwolves, the Minnesota Timberwolves, and what
- 14:02they did to the GM and the owner and Kevin McHale.
- 14:07And I remember it very, very well because Kevin McHale was
- 14:10the one that was in the forefront of drafting Kevin
- 14:14Garnett. Do we remember Kevin Garnett,
- 14:16one of the greatest power forwards of all time and also
- 14:19behind drafting well, making the trade and then drafting Stephon
- 14:24Marbury? If you remember that when you
- 14:27look at the fact of what the NBA did to Kevin McHale ownership in
- 14:34Glenn Taylor over there in Minnesota at the time in 2000,
- 14:38you would honestly believe that If the NBA investigates this
- 14:41story and looks deeper into it, there has to be some kind of
- 14:47hammer being dropped on an organization like the LA
- 14:50Clippers. First of all, that is patent
- 14:52with money. This is an organization is the
- 14:55richest organization and professional basketball.
- 14:58Think about it. The Lakers just sold their
- 14:59organization for what, twelve $13 billion?
- 15:05You talk about the Clippers and you talk about Ballmer.
- 15:09Ballmer is a guy that's very smart.
- 15:11He understands business. He understands how to hide and
- 15:14deliver money to players and people in a business standpoint.
- 15:18Aspirations. I remember the patch that they
- 15:22were wearing on their jersey at the time this was going on.
- 15:26I remember it when Fish told me we were going to get into this
- 15:29story. I remember it very, very well.
- 15:31I didn't even know what aspiration was.
- 15:34I know the Nike sign. I know the Jordan sign, which
- 15:36most NBA teams are wearing on their jerseys now, and now the
- 15:40NBA is allowing teams to use sponsorships to put on their
- 15:45jerseys, which we're going to see in the next two to three
- 15:47years. You're going to see a lot of
- 15:49different things on NBA jerseys. As a matter of fact, if you go
- 15:53to Europe and you see the European jerseys, that's all
- 15:56they do. All their sponsors are promoted
- 15:59on their jerseys. You, you obviously have to
- 16:03understand the way the NBA works.
- 16:05You have to understand how professional sports work.
- 16:09College football has agreed to bring in NIL deals, paying
- 16:14players to play college football, the NBA, and the money
- 16:18that these guys are making. As we as I brought up and what's
- 16:22that smell yesterday, There are players that are making 10s of
- 16:28millions of dollars and never step on the basketball court
- 16:31once in a game. Just think about it.
- 16:36We had a coach, as I brought up yesterday that was making
- 16:39$150,000 playing for the Lakers and riding the bench, and
- 16:44players were saying to that specific coach, Coach, how could
- 16:49you live on $150,000 when the average American don't even
- 16:54break $100,000 a year? Think about it.
- 16:59And now you look at these stories and I'm sure this isn't
- 17:01the first time we've heard this. I'm sure this isn't the first or
- 17:05the last time we're going to hear an owner maneuver some kind
- 17:09of way to deliver more money to a player under the table and try
- 17:13to play like he knew nothing about it.
- 17:17Now, obviously, he has come out and agreed and pleaded guilty to
- 17:22two counts of wire fraud. OK, Just think about that.
- 17:27Wire fraud is a felony. That is a felony.
- 17:33And you also think that if it was me or you, and I'm talking
- 17:37about Speedy, you're not Jabba because Jabba is Jabba
- 17:39Chamberlain. He's a multi millionaire.
- 17:41So we all know who Jabba Chamberlain is.
- 17:43But if it was me or Speedy that does something like that, we're
- 17:46going to jail. We're going to jail for at least
- 17:505 to 10 years, at least for two felonies or two felony counts of
- 17:55that magnitude. Oh, Tony, going back to what we
- 17:59have heard and the stories behind the whole Tony debacle
- 18:03with the condos and the money that was delivered or
- 18:08disappeared as his agent claims that it wasn't these two fellas
- 18:12money divided out when they were trying to build these
- 18:16condominiums. I honestly believe that the NBA
- 18:20will brush this under the rock. I do because the NBA knows that
- 18:24Steve Ballmer is is a very important piece to the growth of
- 18:29the NBA and NBA business sponsorships, advertisements.
- 18:34This is a guy that's a mastermind of understanding how
- 18:37to build businesses around his professional sports team.
- 18:41And I, I do believe that Steve Ballmer with the money that he
- 18:45has behind him as we see money talks and bull, you know, what
- 18:48walks Steve Ballmer is a guy that understands how to figure
- 18:53out how to negotiate things and brush things in places that you
- 18:58will never talk about or find ever again.
- 19:02Now, this isn't David Stern. Now, if it was David Stern that
- 19:07was behind this situation, you know, David Stern will drop the
- 19:11hammer on ownership. You know, David Stern will
- 19:14absolutely press on the Clippers and do what he did in 2000 to
- 19:21the Timberwolves. I think that was his final, I
- 19:23think final two or three years if I'm not mistaken.
- 19:27Yeah, because I know Garnett was just trades at the topics.
- 19:30It was right around that. David Stern was still running
- 19:33the NBA organization. He gave Adam Silver the reins.
- 19:35I think if I'm not mistaken, it was 2005 or 2006.
- 19:39It was right after Eli Manning was drafted, if I'm not
- 19:42mistaken, when David Stern walked away and gave the reins
- 19:47to Adam Silver. Adam Silver has, and I'm not
- 19:51saying he's ruined the league. I'm not saying that, and I'm not
- 19:54saying that Adam Silver isn't a smart, intelligent man.
- 19:57Adam Silver has let the players control the league.
- 20:01He has let the players decide where and how the league should
- 20:08be run, as we all call it, the LJA on their show, the LeBron
- 20:12James Association. And then, and this is a big
- 20:15league, which has become international because of Michael
- 20:18Jordan and now LeBron James. It's big all over the place.
- 20:21We talked about how soccer, European football is big all
- 20:25around the world. Basketball is coming to that
- 20:28point. Basketball is becoming that
- 20:32second international sport. It's not hockey.
- 20:35I know everybody's going to say, well, what about hockey?
- 20:37Hockey's big internationally, but it's not as big as
- 20:40basketball is. Basketball is played in over 200
- 20:46countries. All you need is a basketball.
- 20:48You don't even need sneakers anymore.
- 20:50You could go. You can run up and down a court
- 20:53and shoot a basketball. And with the money that
- 20:56sponsorships and sneaker deals that these players are getting,
- 21:00as we have attacked many different WNBA players,
- 21:03attacking Caitlin Clark on what she's doing for the WNBA, we all
- 21:08know that money does grow on trees for the NBA.
- 21:12And $28 million to an NBA team is nothing.
- 21:17It's pennies. It's nothing to a guy like Steve
- 21:20Ballmer, the amount of money that is being brought in through
- 21:25TV deals and sponsorships. So we all know the NBA knows
- 21:29that $28 million. Oh, we'll just brush this under
- 21:31the rug. Well, we'll give a fine.
- 21:33You're not going to lose draft picks.
- 21:35It's not going to be like it was in 2000 because Adam Silver has
- 21:39allowed ownership and allowed players to control the league,
- 21:43not the commissioner, as the commissioner should be stepping
- 21:47in and saying what he should be saying as a commissioner and
- 21:52attacking ownership and why you should not be paying players
- 21:56onto the table that kind of money when you're giving these
- 21:59guys multi million mega deals. You're talking about Steph
- 22:03Curry, who just got, I'm sorry, not even Steph Curry.
- 22:06Brown from the from the the Celtics just got a $400 million
- 22:10contract. Jason Tatum, I'm Did he just get
- 22:13a contract? Yeah, he got one last.
- 22:14Year. What was it, 500 million?
- 22:16He was low 300. I think his was 310.
- 22:18And then you'll look at Shane. It's less Season 2.
- 22:20I mean, it's ridiculous. These players are making
- 22:22ridiculous amount of money, more than we're going to be talking
- 22:26about basketball players making more than baseball players a
- 22:29year. Just think about that.
- 22:31This is very few players on a basketball team.
- 22:34What is there 1213 guys on a? Roster and it's like, I think
- 22:37there's 15 technically, but like.
- 22:39You know what I'm doing, what I'm speaking to them.
- 22:41There can be, yeah, there can be a total of 14, I think 14 or 15.
- 22:44Yeah, so but you're 13. Players usually only play if if,
- 22:48depending on a coach, if even Tom Thibodeau only played eight
- 22:51guys. But you know what I mean, If,
- 22:52if, if it's a certain. But even even that 11th and 12th
- 22:55dude still getting like a million or two to do nothing.
- 22:58No, then the 11th or 12th guy on an NBA team like it makes more
- 23:02than a lot of second line NHL players.
- 23:04It's ridiculous how much these guys are making.
- 23:06I wonder. I mean.
- 23:09How much do you think, though, really an average guy playing,
- 23:13riding the bench? I know there was a Knick player,
- 23:15a big man that the Knicks gave an extension to and they were
- 23:19paying him. If I'm not I'm not mistaken, 8
- 23:22or 9 million a year and he didn't step on a basketball
- 23:26court once that season and then the Knicks decided to drop him
- 23:31and pay pay off the contract. I think they signed up to A2
- 23:34year deal worth about 16,000,000.
- 23:36I don't remember the player. It was a big man, 7 foot 7 foot
- 23:40guy. I I draw a blank on the name
- 23:42too. I think it was in the Phil
- 23:43Jackson era. It was in the Phil Jackson era
- 23:46and I remember it because, and it was either in a Phil Jackson
- 23:51or Jeff Hornacek, Jerome James, Jerome James, that's who it was.
- 23:55And I remember when the Knicks gave him that big guy.
- 23:57He didn't step on the Court One time that season, not once.
- 24:02He was terrible. Absolutely.
- 24:05It says the average NBA just bench salary, like the minimum
- 24:09contract is between 1.1 and 3.3. And it just depends on
- 24:14experience, how many years you have, but it could be up to 12.4
- 24:19if you're if you're mid level. Think about that.
- 24:22If I was a parent right now and I'm sitting pretty and I say,
- 24:26hey, son, you're athletic. You're about 6 foot 36 foot
- 24:29four. What would you what, what would
- 24:31we put you in? What kind of sport do you enjoy
- 24:34playing? Football's too.
- 24:36It's too much of a contact sport.
- 24:37I don't want you to have CTI, don't want you to have brain
- 24:39trauma in the future. Baseball, you got to go up to
- 24:43single A and AA and AAA. You might never step on a
- 24:46baseball field. And you definitely don't want to
- 24:48get paid that rinky dinky money in the minors.
- 24:51And and then you talk about hockey, hockey, there's the AHL,
- 24:57there's junior and then AHL. But are you ever going to step
- 25:00on an NHL ice? And, and if you do, an average
- 25:03player is probably bringing in 500,000.
- 25:06Honestly, the sport that I'm telling my kid to play is
- 25:10basketball. Why?
- 25:12You know, there's no contact whatsoever because if you lay a
- 25:15pinky, they're at the free throw line.
- 25:17And internationally, you go to Europe right now, they're paying
- 25:20guys five $6,000,000 to play international basketball.
- 25:23Ask Stephon Marbury, whatever statue over there of him in
- 25:27China. And then yeah, here in the NBA,
- 25:31if you're a bench player, even if you're AG League player,
- 25:33there are G League players that were not drafted that we're
- 25:38making $500,000 a year. Sometimes before they were
- 25:42drafted. Yeah, 17 years old Mitchell
- 25:44Robinson, if I, if I'm not mistaken, was making like
- 25:46$350,000 playing overseas because he didn't play college
- 25:52ball. He decided that year he was
- 25:54going to go to the NBA drafts, which was a big mistake because
- 25:57he probably was a top ten, top 15 pick if he played for SMUI
- 26:01remember it. And instead, instead he decided,
- 26:04hey, you know what, I'm going to go play overseas.
- 26:06I don't want to play college ball.
- 26:08I don't want to play if if I'm not miss It was Larry Brown
- 26:11decided to step down. I I don't.
- 26:13Know he was in a scandal, so he had to step down.
- 26:15I think so little before the Arizona scandal.
- 26:17So that's why he probably decided to go overseas.
- 26:19I don't remember the whole story, but the fact is and the
- 26:23NBA and the amount of money these players are bringing in is
- 26:26significant and ownership. I am not surprised that they're
- 26:30paying these players under the under the table and they're
- 26:33going to find ways to create LLC's corporations.
- 26:37And what is $300 million to a guy like Ballmer?
- 26:40It's nothing. This guy is what he's worth
- 26:43about $22 billion, $300 million is like $30 in his pocket.
- 26:49It's not a lot of money. It really isn't.
- 26:52Oh, it's not $30.00, but you know, $30,000 in his pocket.
- 26:55He's not crying about losing 300 million.
- 26:58He added the best player, the best two way player at the point
- 27:01of no return in the NBAI don't care if he had knee problems.
- 27:05This guy was the best two way player and he just come and came
- 27:08off winning a championship with a Toronto Raptor team that
- 27:13honestly had no business winning a championship.
- 27:15That's what I'm saying. So I'm going all in on it. 28
- 27:19million, I'll give you let's let's give you a nice 40
- 27:22million. That's nothing to me. 300
- 27:25million open up a corporation. I'm losing money.
- 27:27Who cares? I'm I'm Steve Ballmer, I'll
- 27:30just, I'll take another billion out and put it in my pocket.
- 27:33Who cares? As we all know, Stevie, Uncle
- 27:35Stevie, he paid, he paid Mr. Juan Soto $768 million and he
- 27:44made a billion dollars the year before that.
- 27:46What is $768 million to a guy that's a hedge fund owner and
- 27:51he's he's bringing in one to $2 billion a year?
- 27:55Honestly speak, and I've made that analogy before, the the
- 27:58Clippers are a lot like the New York Mets.
- 28:00When Steve Cohen bought the Mets, the Cohen was involved in
- 28:03scandals at the time that he ended up being wrongly,
- 28:05wrongfully accused of, but still was involved in a lot of stuff
- 28:08like that. Trying to do it with the Mets,
- 28:10trying to especially when they traded for Lindor at the time.
- 28:12I think that was when the scandal really start to took off
- 28:14more and both those teams are the 2, the two rich stoners in
- 28:18sports. They're both like high profile
- 28:20getting these big name guys and both both teams.
- 28:23Now the Mets finally made the NLCS but before that they were
- 28:25doing nothing in the playoffs and the Clippers forget about
- 28:27it. They did nothing in the playoffs
- 28:28whatsoever, even with Kawhi Leonard there.
- 28:31The best series, actually, was when Kawhi Leonard got hurt.
- 28:34They beat Utah and they went to the Western Conference finals
- 28:36before losing to Phoenix. And then you want to be
- 28:39established yourself as a reputation over the Lakers.
- 28:42Kawhi Leonard wanted that image. Oh, I don't want to play with
- 28:44LeBron James. I want to be my own guy.
- 28:46He brings in Paul George, helps the Thunder win a championship
- 28:49with all the draft picks and trading Shay and all that other
- 28:52stuff. Didn't they have to wait a year
- 28:53for Paul George and I? If I'm not mistaken, when they
- 28:56made the move for Kawhi Leonard, he was out for 1 1/2 season
- 29:00because of the knee injury. They already knew that he had a
- 29:03knee injury and they still signed him and brought him to
- 29:06the LA Clippers. They didn't care about his knee
- 29:09injury because they got Kawhi Leonard a a champion not for one
- 29:14organization, but two. And how many times did we talk
- 29:17about like all these different Kawhi Leonard trade rumors too
- 29:19that we're going to have? Oh, they lost in 2022.
- 29:23They lost to Dallas, I think at the playoffs.
- 29:24Sorry, their window closing at that point that Kawhi Leonard
- 29:28randomly gets extended out of nowhere.
- 29:29We were talking about Kawhi Leonard, I think the Knicks one
- 29:31offseason as a trade potential. And if it didn't work out with
- 29:35the Clippers over there, then even last year too.
- 29:38The Clippers are getting old. Obviously, Paul George leaves,
- 29:40he goes to Philly and oh, Kawhi Leonard still signs another
- 29:43random extension. All of a sudden now you see.
- 29:45Wow. Wait a second.
- 29:46They at one point had Russell West, Westbrook, they had James.
- 29:49Now they have James Harden, they extended James Harden and and
- 29:53again, money is no object to Steve Ballmer, but who wants to
- 29:55go and play for the Clippers? They're the the little brother
- 29:59of the LA Lakers. Say whatever you want.
- 30:01Luke is there. LeBron might not want to be
- 30:03there anymore. The Lakers are Showtime.
- 30:06That's what they are. The Clippers are baby time.
- 30:09Nobody cares about the LA Clippers.
- 30:11Yeah, and they're trying to, like, establish themselves in
- 30:13the weirdest ways by, like, making these special kinds of
- 30:16seats in their arena. Oh, we're going to go separate
- 30:17ourselves from the Staples Center and establish ourselves
- 30:21or something else from the Lakers, too.
- 30:22Meanwhile, the Clippers, if you look at the history of their
- 30:24franchise, I think before the Chris Paul, Blake Griffin era,
- 30:27they were. As Putras, Yeah.
- 30:28But think about it. I call it Dock City because
- 30:31that's all it was pretty They were docking.
- 30:33And then they were Choke City. Alley.
- 30:35That's right, that's right, that's fine.
- 30:38They were docking, they were choking and they were dropping
- 30:41at the end. Yeah, dropping with injuries too
- 30:44because Chris Paul couldn't stay healthy.
- 30:46Now quite a letter to Paul. George can stay healthy.
- 30:48Yeah, that's that's your ownership right there.
- 30:50So So what does Steve Baldwin decide to do?
- 30:52Let's go manipulate by going against the salary cap, which is
- 30:56obviously illegal. Now, I've always had a loosely
- 30:58objection to the way the NBA salary cap works as it is where
- 31:01I think you're right. It's very lenient towards the
- 31:03players where it gives them way too much room to all right,
- 31:05maybe if they trade a contract or two to make it work, but
- 31:07there's no right real salary cap like it is in the NFL type
- 31:10thing. And these guys are manipulating
- 31:12it to that. What I don't understand is why
- 31:15create a corporation? And I know it and me and Fish
- 31:18were going back and forth. We were trying to figure that
- 31:19out because it is $28 million. You can't hide $28 million.
- 31:24You're going to have to find a way to claim it.
- 31:26So that's probably why Ballmer had to create a some kind of
- 31:30aspiration corporation. But again, the way he did and
- 31:33the way he set it up, how did he not think that somehow or some
- 31:37way the NBA wasn't going to figure this out and wasn't going
- 31:41to investigate it? That's and, and Steve Ballmer's
- 31:44a very smart man. He is a businessman.
- 31:47So that's why I'm a little turned off on this story on why
- 31:50Ballmer actually thought that there was no way the NBA was
- 31:54going to figure this out. Now, the LJA is completely
- 31:58different from what the NBA was when we had David Stern running
- 32:02the organization. But Adam Silver is a guy that is
- 32:05going to sit back. He's going to sit around the
- 32:08round table and have LeBron James leading that table and
- 32:11say, hey, you know what, It's just $28 million.
- 32:13You know, there's got to there's got to be more to that 28
- 32:17million. Like, and I don't know if you
- 32:19guys saw it, but Cuban was going back and forth with Pablo and
- 32:23like, you know, come on his show because Cuban, he was on the
- 32:26side of Ballmer, obviously. But you know how they used to
- 32:29get away with it too and not have to create corporations.
- 32:32They used to give it to churches and it was, it was big in
- 32:35college and they could, they could go help the church.
- 32:39And are you really going to come out?
- 32:40Mind you, it wasn't $28 million, but that's the way that they
- 32:44could funnel and hide it where it wasn't a big deal.
- 32:46So the kid would go, you know, to the church and be like, hey,
- 32:49he, you know, he helped, you know, pick up chairs or whatever
- 32:52and picking up chairs got him 5 grand or what?
- 32:54And that's so that's kind of how they did so, but 28 million of
- 32:59of somebody that is a business guy that gets it.
- 33:03Yeah, 2028 mil is probably a throw in the hat, which is is
- 33:07disgusting to even say. But for him it really is.
- 33:11And to show like all of like the debtors and all the other stuff
- 33:16that like went with it. It's there.
- 33:18It there's more to it. I just don't know what angle it
- 33:22it is. So it wasn't his company
- 33:24allegedly, right? He wasn't a founder of the
- 33:28company. The founders went down for wire
- 33:30fraud and basically running Ponzi scheme type things against
- 33:34with their investors. But one of the investors was
- 33:38Ballmer. Ballmer invested $50 million and
- 33:42then curiously, not even in the middle of the season, he did
- 33:46that right before the season. Around the same time Kawhi
- 33:48Leonard signed his extension with the with the Clippers.
- 33:51If you remember, this is also the year I believe speedy Paul
- 33:54George. So there was a big emphasis on
- 33:56this. And it looks like Kawhi and his
- 33:58people who listen, there's a lot of stories about Kawhi's people.
- 34:02They going back to his uncle with not playing with the quad.
- 34:05But we, we know the Kawhi's people might have been like,
- 34:08well, you know, we want a little bit more than the Max.
- 34:11And they were like, all right, fine.
- 34:12I got a company. I know this guy, I'll give him
- 34:15$50 million. He'll give you 28,000,000 / 4
- 34:19years. As long as you stay with us for
- 34:21four years, you keep that extra 28 million, you leave, that's a
- 34:25little sweetener you don't get. And that's like, OK, that's,
- 34:28that's a nice little icing on the deal.
- 34:30Now I'm coming. I wonder what Paul George got
- 34:33personally, because if Kawhi got that, what did Paul George get?
- 34:37Because it sounds like that's how he plays, right?
- 34:39Right. This isn't the first time he's
- 34:41done something like that. There's no way.
- 34:44By the way, Fish, before you consider Jamie Lee of the comic
- 34:46Kawhi needs to retire. Yeah, him and Steve Ballmer's
- 34:49funding. Kawhi Leonard and Paul George
- 34:50did not. Play Paul George is a waste of
- 34:52space everywhere he's gone ever since that horrific injury with
- 34:56Team USA, he is. He's still a great player, but
- 34:59he hasn't been the same player when he was with Indiana and and
- 35:02again, going back to the whole Kawhi Leonard situation with
- 35:06Chris Paul and now even James Harden.
- 35:08What did James Harden just get in his extension?
- 35:10He just signed an extension with Ballmer.
- 35:12And you know, James Harden, it's all about money.
- 35:14It's always been about money. Or he would have stayed with.
- 35:17OK, you see his, did you see his videos today?
- 35:21No, I haven't seen his videos. James, there was a workout
- 35:24video. Nice.
- 35:25Oh, he's getting fat. Yeah, we, we called him James
- 35:28Fatten. That's what we called him on
- 35:29this show because he, he got fat all the time.
- 35:32And by the way, I remember somebody, an ex NFL player that
- 35:35told me, Eric Coleman told me that he would take James Harden
- 35:39over Allen Iverson of all time, which was an absolute ridiculous
- 35:43statement. I, it was one of the worst, you
- 35:45know, back and forth banter when it came to sports media I've
- 35:49ever had with an ex athlete. And Eric, if you're listening to
- 35:52the show, which I know he's been in tuned to the show a couple of
- 35:55times, especially when I talk about his Atlanta Falcons and
- 35:59his New York Jets. He has come out and told me that
- 36:03I maybe I should do a little bit more investigation on his teams.
- 36:07Well, let me ask you a question. If you really thought that James
- 36:12Fatten was ever as good as AI, well, tell me what year it was
- 36:18because even at the tail end of Allen Iverson's career, Allen
- 36:22Iverson in his bad years was putting up almost 20 points a
- 36:26game and he was still the third or fourth guy that was playing
- 36:30on a very good team. So it made absolutely no sense.
- 36:33And I, and again, Eric Coleman has his own obviously thoughts
- 36:37when it comes to sports and and and basketball, because he says
- 36:40I know basketball just as much as I know football.
- 36:43Well, if you knew basketball as much as you know football, you
- 36:46definitely wouldn't take James Harden over AI.
- 36:49James Harden is not a top ten player of all time.
- 36:52Alan Iverson is so terrible statement, but James Harden, I
- 36:56guarantee you, guarantee you was paid, being paid under the under
- 37:01the table because if you look at his contract, the contract is
- 37:05not in a huge extension. I think if I'm not mistaken, he
- 37:08signed a three-year extension and get me the numbers.
- 37:11Does anybody have it? That's something my producer
- 37:14should be doing. What the the James Harden
- 37:16contract, the most recent one, his new contract that he just
- 37:20signed, it was like 100 million for three years or something.
- 37:24Yeah, two year, 81 1/2. Yeah, 81.
- 37:26I just had it. Was 40 million a year, 40
- 37:28million. So you definitely, I definitely
- 37:30believe he was getting paid. He's getting paid under the
- 37:32table at least 11:50 more $1,000,000 because think about
- 37:36isn't that what he's doing? Like an average star is making
- 37:40every star in the NBA is making 50 million or more.
- 37:44If you look at it, if you look at the numbers and it all
- 37:46started with game time. Game time was making.
- 37:49He he got an extension with a Portland worth about 60 million
- 37:53a year. Then he went over there to
- 37:54Milwaukee and now he's back with Portland, which makes no sense
- 37:58by the way. But nevertheless, that was when
- 38:01we saw the transition of these extension in these big one year,
- 38:052 year contracts that these players are getting.
- 38:08And now the average star in the NBA is making 50 million or
- 38:12more. So you're going to tell me right
- 38:13now James Harden, really, because Kawhi Leonard is back
- 38:16and forth and he's not 100% healthy.
- 38:18James Harden, who is the best player on the Clippers right
- 38:21now, isn't getting 50 million or more.
- 38:23Come on guys. I say the way the Clippers left
- 38:26to load manage everything and the way James Harden likes to.
- 38:28Make you Palmer is not cheaping out on this one.
- 38:31No, it's not cheaping out, it's just paying him in different
- 38:33ways to say all right, we have enough cap space to go get a
- 38:36random all washed up old guy again.
- 38:38Well, James Hardy, James Harden is not that bad speed.
- 38:41No, he's fine. No, I'm saying who's going to be
- 38:43pairing with James Hardy because the Clippers don't develop young
- 38:45players around. He doesn't play any.
- 38:47He doesn't play a lick of defense, but the guy offense
- 38:50that's what happened to him in the last five years is the
- 38:52defense went he was never a good defensive no right, but at least
- 38:55he was he was a high effort defensive.
- 38:58Oh yeah, high. At times he'll stop at the foul
- 39:00line. At times he'll stop at the foul
- 39:02line and let you run past not a game sevens, but at times
- 39:06listen. No, James Harvest just missed 12
- 39:08threes. He he was like the players were
- 39:11like a ball and he was like with the guy with the red sash.
- 39:13Oh, hey, oh, hey, that's what James Harden would do, play
- 39:17defense. He let you run right past him.
- 39:19It didn't matter to him as long as he get his fifty.
- 39:21The matador, the matador, that's what it is.
- 39:24That was a strip club. So here's my problem with all
- 39:26this. If Kawhi Leonard gets a Max
- 39:29contract in the NBA but also receives $28 million on top of
- 39:35it, doesn't that mean the market says that Kawhi Leonard is worth
- 39:40$28 million more than a Max contract 100% And shouldn't he
- 39:44be allowed to make that money? Because if not, you are
- 39:49intentionally gaming the market to keep players salaries down.
- 39:53That's why people argue against the salary cap.
- 39:56And that's Kawhi Leonard, who is past his prime.
- 39:59Think about what we're, you know, we said when LeBron was at
- 40:01the height of his powers, how much he really should have been
- 40:04getting paid. That guy shouldn't have got in a
- 40:06Max contract. He should have made been making
- 40:08over $100 million a year for about a decade straight because
- 40:13that's what that guy was really worth if he was out on an open
- 40:16market getting that kind of money.
- 40:19And that's not even including, you know, his side projects and
- 40:22all those things, you know, his movie studio company.
- 40:27You know, that's what happens his movie studio, his blaze
- 40:30pizza company, I mean everything the man owns LA red wine,
- 40:34hyperbaric chambers. He's he's Magic Johnson S Magic
- 40:39Johnson owns everything. He owns movie theaters, he owns
- 40:42sports teams, he owns pizza delivery companies, he owns Uber
- 40:47companies. I mean, that guy is, is a multi
- 40:51multi multi billionaire by all the companies he has built
- 40:55around his basketball career. And LeBron, he's doing the same
- 40:57thing as he's come out and said when he's done with basketball,
- 41:00he's going to own an NBA team, AKA Alex Rodriguez as he owns
- 41:04the Timberwolves. So not surprised when you're
- 41:08hearing stories like this as NBA players are bringing in a brush
- 41:12fire of money. And I'm telling you 50 million,
- 41:15just think about it, $50 million for 82 games.
- 41:19Most of these guys don't even make the playoffs.
- 41:21Think about that. You're you're talking about guys
- 41:24like Trey Young, right? He plays for the Atlanta Hawks.
- 41:28The Atlanta Hawks are not a really good basketball there.
- 41:31They're up and down. How many times in the last 7-8
- 41:34years have they made the playoffs?
- 41:353 Just think about it. He's been in the NBA for almost
- 41:397 years. Trey Young Trey Young has made
- 41:41the playoffs for three out of the seven years, if I'm not
- 41:45mistaken. And they, like the all the other
- 41:46years they were a play in team like they weren't even that
- 41:49good. And he's bringing in almost 40
- 41:51something $50 million and the guy hasn't even really got his
- 41:54next extension. It's ridiculous.
- 41:56Steph Curry just signed up $275 million contract.
- 42:00What was it 2 years ago? It's crazy.
- 42:03It's crazy amount of money. This is Monopoly money.
- 42:06The NBA is Monopoly. All they got to do is jump from
- 42:09one place to another or one whore to the other, as we all
- 42:13know NBA players like to do as Will Chamberlain.
- 42:16I don't know if anyone can top that record. 10,000 women as
- 42:21he's come out and say sure, it was a round Number of 10,000,
- 42:24you know, he said. 10,000 women. Rounded up fish, it's a 10,000.
- 42:27You think he was at 9999? He must have only one more.
- 42:31That's it. I'm done after this one.
- 42:34That's the number I was shooting for.
- 42:36I'm going to stop it exactly. He was final push.
- 42:39Will Chamberlain was counting women who he was sleeping with,
- 42:42and Bill Russell was counting championships.
- 42:44That's the difference. How many rings do you think he
- 42:50do you think he counted like, because there ain't no chance it
- 42:52was just one at a time. Do you think like if there was
- 42:55like a group of me counted that as one or did he count that as
- 42:58like if there was 4, did he count it as 4?
- 43:00Did he count the stats job? I'm going.
- 43:02To have. How many days does it take to
- 43:04count that? You know, does he have like a
- 43:08clicker? Did he write it down or?
- 43:10Yeah. What do you do?
- 43:10I'm very high. I mean, no computers back then.
- 43:12Maybe a typewriter. Remember that commercial?
- 43:15How many licks does it get to the center of a Tootsie roll
- 43:18pop? And it's 123.
- 43:21I don't know if if he was licking that many times, he
- 43:25would get to the end of the Tootsie Roll Pop.
- 43:26When it came to these women, it said it claimed in a 1991
- 43:32autobiography, A View From Above, he slept with 20,000
- 43:36women. That's even more multiplied by
- 43:39two. Still round Number, though.
- 43:42Still a round Number. Yeah, you're right.
- 43:44Physically, how did it? How did it not fall off?
- 43:48I mean, the man, you know what his nickname was?
- 43:51You know what his nickname was? His nickname was Goliath Wilt
- 43:54the still. No, it was Goliath.
- 43:56That was his nickname. They called him Goliath.
- 43:59So David and Goliath, you know, he was the biggest man in many
- 44:04different ways. Speeding.
- 44:05You might know, might not know, but I'm.
- 44:07Sure. I'm sure.
- 44:08If Nathan if Nathan has access to time travel, he might want to
- 44:11live that life. You know they say that if that
- 44:14story was true. David, I love Lisa Ann.
- 44:16Throw the rock at like the speed of a bullet, almost with like
- 44:20one of those slingshots. I saw like one of those
- 44:21Mythbusters how fast you could throw a rock like that.
- 44:24Pretty fast. You can throw like through some
- 44:27stuff. It's pretty crazy.
- 44:28I'm not throwing any rocks at Wilt Chamberlain if he was still
- 44:31alive, because I would be afraid he'd grab me with his palm of
- 44:34his hand and take me and throw me 50 miles away.
- 44:37I mean, that guy's hands were bigger than Shaquille O'Neal.
- 44:40Think about that. You.
- 44:42I don't know if anybody's met or seen Shaquille O'Neal in person.
- 44:45His hands are ridiculous. Just think about.
- 44:48He shook my elbow. You shook your elbow?
- 44:52Very specific. Yeah.
- 44:54Hey, Jabba, what a nice elbow you have over there.
- 44:58It was unlike he he we stood up and I was like, OK, here we go.
- 45:02And then, like, shook my hand and I was like, whoa, he was so
- 45:07nice. And then he took off and just
- 45:08walked down the street and went back to his hotel.
- 45:11Whoa. I like that song like whoa.
- 45:14All right, ladies and gentlemen, we're moving on to the next
- 45:20segment as we are getting in to our AFC preview.
- 45:27Duty Dodger. Pass Liquor.
- 45:30All right, let's go baby, let's go AFC.
- 45:33All right, we have the division betting odds up for all of the.
- 45:38AFC we already. Talked about the AFC West
- 45:43previously. Well, a lot of us, we're not
- 45:46picking the Kansas City Chiefs to be the favorites, but they
- 45:49are the favorite still at -110 in the West.
- 45:53The Broncos sitting at 2nd at plus 280.
- 45:55A lot of us pick them. The Chargers not far behind,
- 45:57plus 340. Pretty loaded division this
- 46:00year. Raiders not much of a chance at
- 46:02plus 1100 like all of us said. So let's begin our talk tonight
- 46:08about the AFC S. Let's go a particularly strong
- 46:13division. We got the Titans, the Colts,
- 46:15the Texans and Jaguars. Who do we think is the favorite
- 46:19coming out of this one, boys? The Houston Texans, 100% it's
- 46:23going to be the Houston Texans. CJ Strout and and a guy that his
- 46:27sophomore year wasn't as strong as his freshman year, but it was
- 46:30pretty damn good. CJ Strout is absolutely for
- 46:33real. Nico Collins is one of the best
- 46:36underrated wide receivers in the league.
- 46:38You can see it if you play in fantasy right now.
- 46:41He's one of the top five fantasy guys right now.
- 46:44And honestly, when you look at the weapons that they have and,
- 46:47and what they're going to provide this year, they don't
- 46:49have the running game with Joe Mixon, but they added Chubb.
- 46:52I think Chubb is going to give him a significant decent running
- 46:56game. But again, CJ Shroud is a guy
- 46:58that's not only a pocket present quarterback, he's going to step
- 47:01in, he's going to step out, He's going to use his legs.
- 47:03He's got a tremendous amount of weapons.
- 47:06And and by the way, one of the more underrated defenses in all
- 47:09of football. Top five top 6 defenses in
- 47:12football. I love the Texans in this
- 47:15division. I could see them winning 10 or
- 47:1611 games. Yeah, definitely 10 or 11 games
- 47:18has to be the window. When you look at the way that
- 47:20they've improved a lot on that front 7.
- 47:22They're one of the best probably pass rushing duos.
- 47:24When you look at Daniel Hunter and Will Anderson, combined with
- 47:27the fact that, like you're saying, even though they have
- 47:28some receivers hurt, they still draft the two of them.
- 47:30The only thing that concerns me a little bit is the offensive
- 47:32line. Obviously losing tonsil in the
- 47:34offseason. They haven't really drafted well
- 47:35at those positions. They have a couple rookies that
- 47:37they're trying to work in, so that might be the only thing
- 47:39holding them back from maybe taking that big leap like we're
- 47:42thinking the Broncos could do. But their defense is very
- 47:44complete, too. Obviously paying Stingley, Jalen
- 47:46Petrie is a very underrated safety as well, and they're a
- 47:48linebacker factory with Tobecca. Ryan's there.
- 47:51I love Ryan's and Ryan's is one of the guys that I think was up
- 47:55for coach of the year last year. Very well deserved to be a top
- 47:58three coach of the year and had a chance again to take his team
- 48:03far into the playoffs again. They they had a lot of injuries
- 48:06last year. They're going into the season
- 48:08with some some losses and their wide receiving core that they
- 48:12thought they were going to have for the next three to four
- 48:15years. They're missing one big name
- 48:17they did have they did add Hollins in the draft.
- 48:20I think Hollins is going to play a big part in their offense.
- 48:23He could be the number 2 on this team with Nico, Nico Collins.
- 48:27We'll see. But I I like the Texans.
- 48:29I think they're going to be explosive and and again, a
- 48:31defense, they can shut you down. Yeah.
- 48:34I think CJ Stroud just going to get better too.
- 48:37I think it's always funny when you talk about like coaches of
- 48:39the year too. And I know it's kind of a side
- 48:40note, but like, what do you think?
- 48:42Like sets, like he's deserving of coach of the year, but like
- 48:45there's got to be something that sets like him apart.
- 48:47Like the X's and O's are just like what he's he's built with
- 48:51the team. There's There were no
- 48:52expectations for that Texans team in 2023 when they made the
- 48:56playoffs. They were supposed to be.
- 48:58They were the number three pick in the draft.
- 48:59They dropped the Will Anderson. They traded up.
- 49:01They had expectations to improve, but they were never
- 49:04expected to be anywhere close to a playoff team.
- 49:08Don't forget about their special teams being pretty excellent as
- 49:10well. You got Amy Fairbear in one of
- 49:13the bigger legs in the NFL. Townsend, pretty good punter.
- 49:16They were ranked 6th, tied for 6th in the NFL specials as well.
- 49:20Just a really well coached team with some really good young
- 49:23talent. Expecting them to get better.
- 49:25I love the two Iowa State receivers they took, especially
- 49:28Higgins. I think they're going to both
- 49:30play a big impact with them if that passing game really takes
- 49:33off this year. So they're the favorites, but
- 49:34they're the only favorite in the AFC that you can get it plus
- 49:38money guys. So that might, if you really
- 49:40believe in the Texans, you can get them.
- 49:42Currently on FanDuel at plus 1/15.
- 49:47After that, we got the Jaguars coming in at plus 260 and the
- 49:51Colts at plus 340. Not a lot of faith in Cam Ward
- 49:55in this first year. Titans are sitting in the last
- 49:59+700. Probably not good news for Brian
- 50:01Callahan and the staff over there.
- 50:02Well, I will say this. They have a great defense.
- 50:05This is a defense that was one of the top 10 defenses in the
- 50:08league. Tennessee has Jeffrey Simmons,
- 50:11who's a great pass rusher, one of the best sack leaders when it
- 50:15comes to defensive lines in all of football and they're going to
- 50:18be able to get at you. The problem with them is
- 50:20offensively, they have a young quarterback in Ward and they do
- 50:24have Ridley. Calvin Ridley is good.
- 50:26They added Tyler Lockett in the offseason and and they do who
- 50:29have a pretty decent running game.
- 50:31The problem with them is are you going to depend on a guy like
- 50:34Tony Pollard all season long who can't stay healthy, is second
- 50:37year coach who almost lost his job in the offseason.
- 50:40So I I don't know if, if if he starts the season very, very
- 50:44slow and he doesn't have, you know, put off at least one or
- 50:48two wins in his first five or six games.
- 50:50Do they fire their head coach? That is the question.
- 50:53And, and like I said over the last last couple of weeks, I've
- 50:56heard he was on the hot seat in the offseason.
- 50:58So very interesting story with the Tennessee Titans.
- 51:01You're right, the defense is definitely strong in the front
- 51:037. They've tended to develop well
- 51:04when it comes to their their pass rush.
- 51:06Obviously losing Harold Landry could hurt, but they lost him a
- 51:09lot of the 2023 season, Vrabel's last year and their defense was
- 51:11still very good. Offensive line is still a little
- 51:13questionable. They don't haven't drafted as
- 51:15well as they usually do when it comes to that.
- 51:17And that's going to be a big key for Cam Ward.
- 51:18Is he going to be able to extend plays right away?
- 51:21Tony Pollard, you're right, he's kind of an inconsistent runner
- 51:23as a pure runner and Ty J Spears already hurt.
- 51:25Where are they going to get the kind of depth I kind of see like
- 51:27a six win team? They'll improve, but they're not
- 51:29there yet. No, I'm interested to see what
- 51:32Cam Ward does, if he, if he can slow the game down, Obviously
- 51:35the jump from college to NFL to see if he can slow down.
- 51:38Obviously seems like he has the demeanor throughout all of his
- 51:41interviews and the way he conducts himself and you know,
- 51:44how he's focused in what he his preparation for the game and,
- 51:48and how he's talked about it. And yeah, it's, it's always like
- 51:51when you when you're doing these fantasy dress as we all talk
- 51:53about, it's like, OK, you're going to get certain guys.
- 51:56Pollard's one of those guys. When is he going to get hurt?
- 51:57It's not it's not if it's, it's when.
- 52:00And so I think, yeah, probably 5 or 6, but I'm interested to see
- 52:04how Cam reacts to the NFL and, and makes the adjustment.
- 52:07I think that second best team right now is the Jacksonville
- 52:09Jaguars in the South. I I really do believe that the
- 52:13question is, is their defense going to be able to hold up?
- 52:15It's been a big problem back and forth over the last two seasons.
- 52:19Liam Cohen is is a is a young coach.
- 52:22He's taken over. He's a good, smart coach.
- 52:24But they have multiple running backs and Travis Etienne is not
- 52:29the number one guy anymore. They've got three.
- 52:31They got a triple headed monster and we don't know.
- 52:34And if you're a drafter, you're not drafting any one of these
- 52:37guys because you don't know who's going to start and who's
- 52:39going to finish. And again, Brian Thomas is
- 52:43sensational. I think he's one of the more
- 52:44underrated young wide receivers in the league.
- 52:46And I said it, three years from now, this guy's going to be the
- 52:49number one wide receiver in all the fantasy.
- 52:52This guy is so explosive. Look who was throwing him the
- 52:54ball last year. It wasn't even yes, Mr. Trevor
- 52:58Lawrence. So and, and this guy put on,
- 53:01they had 12 touchdowns or 11 touchdowns and he had over 1200
- 53:04yards and he didn't even have him.
- 53:05He had Mac Jones throwing him the ball.
- 53:07Trevor Lawrence has got to stay healthy.
- 53:08This is his chance right now under Liam Cohen show and prove
- 53:12himself to be a franchise quarterback.
- 53:15And here's another thing that I'm going to say Travis AKA
- 53:18Gremlin himself. He needs to show up and play 2
- 53:23headed the type of football defensively and offensively.
- 53:28Yes, ladies and gentlemen, Travis the Gremlin, Hunter, the
- 53:32Unicorn as he calls himself, needs to show up week by week
- 53:36depending if he's playing defense or he's playing offense.
- 53:39He said that he's going to be more of a wide receiver this
- 53:42year than a corner. I think Mr. Liam Cohen should
- 53:45have chose corner over wide receiver.
- 53:48I just don't know if he's going to hold up and he's going to be
- 53:51the player that didn't didn't come out that he was wide
- 53:53receiver 1 and cornerback 2. Wide receiver two No, he's wide
- 53:57receiver too and he's going to play probably in sub packages in
- 54:01I don't know if he's going to be in the slaughter outside speedy.
- 54:04I would imagine they probably put.
- 54:05Him Jordan Lewis they sign he was the cowboy slot corner so I
- 54:08don't know even he might rotate in some.
- 54:10I think there may be some like like they may play some like 425
- 54:14stuff where there's there's a lot of D backs on the field.
- 54:17He's a lot of teams are playing a lot of are you still thinking
- 54:20like the 60, sixty, 70% mark on the defensive side?
- 54:23If he grows. He should.
- 54:25That's what he should be doing. You guys.
- 54:27Sorry Thomas. They're everything they're
- 54:29saying is he's #2 receiver, he's going to play more than half the
- 54:32snaps of receiver and he's only going to be in sub packages.
- 54:35So that probably is about 1/3 of the time on defense.
- 54:38So that add those things up together, you might get to that
- 54:41high 60s job like you're saying, but his his first year, I don't
- 54:45think they're going to want him to go that high and I don't
- 54:48think they want him to go that high in general.
- 54:50But you know, this guy is a one-of-a-kind guy and you had to
- 54:54say that you're going to do this with them if he was going to go
- 54:56there in the draft, right. So Brian Thomas is going to be
- 55:00the number one and Travis, AKA Gremlin Hunter is never going to
- 55:04be the number one over there as long as Brian Thomas is there.
- 55:06This guy is so explosive. He's going to be so fun to
- 55:09watch. Anybody that drafted him in your
- 55:12draft, you're looking and searching for a treat this year.
- 55:16He's your treat. He's a nice ice cream sundae
- 55:19that you you can put extra fudge on because this guy's going to
- 55:22have 14 touchdowns if Trevor Lawrence stays healthy, 1415
- 55:26touchdowns, fourteen, 1500 yards and he's going to be up for one
- 55:31of the offensive players of the year.
- 55:32I'm telling you, he's that kind of player, fun to watch and he's
- 55:36going to be able to go out there and put up those numbers.
- 55:38Ariel, you mentioned it to the second level talent on this
- 55:40Jaguars team definitely screams like it could be a borderline
- 55:43playoff team. It's just the trenches, the.
- 55:45Defensive side too, the secondary too.
- 55:48It's a little reasonable. Yeah, you're going to you're
- 55:50going to bet that Travis the Gremlin hunter is going to be
- 55:53able to play two way football and he's going to have to be
- 55:56your number one corner, possibly because your corner play is
- 56:00really there's no depth on that team, right, Really not I like.
- 56:03Tyson Campbell's a number one corner, but after that, they're
- 56:05very questionable. They they signed as as a safety
- 56:08Darnell Savage from Green Bay, who's played well, but he's also
- 56:10injury prone. And then their pass rush too.
- 56:12Outside of Josh Allen, Eric Armstead's been injury prone and
- 56:16Trayvon Walker's been a bust of a number one pick.
- 56:18Yeah. Absolutely, and then got good
- 56:21job. No, no, it's just I fishy kind
- 56:26of said it's like, yeah, he may be capable to do it, but do you
- 56:29really want him doing that in his first year?
- 56:31Like and especially like you said, there's just no depth in
- 56:34in in what they're going to do. So what I mean, one of your main
- 56:37attractions is obviously to to your team, but I mean, I'm, I
- 56:41don't think I'm risking, you know, getting 60s, you know,
- 56:4470%. I mean, we've had guys say it's,
- 56:47it's going to be that 60 to 70% mark that it, that it played in
- 56:50the league. So I, I don't know, I'm going,
- 56:52I'm putting at the corner position.
- 56:54That's where they need the depth.
- 56:56He is better as a corner than a wide receiver.
- 56:58I think they're making a mistake.
- 57:00I'm telling you, I think they're making a mistake.
- 57:02But hey, I'm not a coach in the NFL.
- 57:04We'll we'll see what Mr. Cohen's going to do at the end of the
- 57:07season when the media is going to attack him and say, well, I
- 57:10don't know if you should have done it this way.
- 57:12I think you should have went the other route.
- 57:14Well, you know, Colin was pretty Dang good with Baker Mayfield,
- 57:18so I I'm willing to give him a shot with that kind of
- 57:21firepower. If Hunter is, you know, maybe
- 57:24not. So was Canalis.
- 57:25What did Canalis do with Carolina last year?
- 57:28Well, I mean, look, you got Brian Thomas, you got toys.
- 57:31You look, they didn't have toys over there, but they they
- 57:32realize they can kind of use Bryce Young by the end of the
- 57:35season. There's some toys over here.
- 57:37If they can get Trevor Lawrence to play halfway decent.
- 57:40And that's going to be the story of their season.
- 57:41If he can play halfway decent, they get a shot at this
- 57:44division. They really do.
- 57:45And then I think you're absolutely right.
- 57:46And then there's the Colts and the Colts, no Richardson this
- 57:49year. Daniel Dimes, Danny Dimes is now
- 57:53the starting quarterback. And then the question, a lot of
- 57:56Giant fans don't like it, but I think he has an opportunity now
- 58:00with a better coach, a guy that I think will be able to run his
- 58:03offense through Daniel Jones and a great running game.
- 58:06Jonathan Taylor this year is healthy.
- 58:09No contract disputes this guy. It could be up for an MVP.
- 58:13This guy is explosive. He could put up the numbers.
- 58:16He could go out there and absolutely dominate a game and
- 58:19really kill a game. And by the way, Indiana has a
- 58:23very good offensive line. This is a very good often
- 58:27offensive like quit Nelson. They've got a tremendous
- 58:31offensive line from the tackles position to the garden center
- 58:34position. So I like it at their defense a
- 58:36little questionable, but I think they're they're running game and
- 58:40they have Pitman. I think they're going to have a
- 58:43pretty good depth offensively. And Daniel Jones, if he stays
- 58:46healthy, and we might see Riley Leonard this year if he goes
- 58:49down. Hopefully Richardson, we don't
- 58:51see him at all this year. He was an absolute bust.
- 58:53But I think Daniel, Daniel Jones is going to have a better year
- 58:56than people think, yeah. Last year they were very close
- 58:58with a really bad defense and they're trying to make patch
- 59:01things together at both corner and on the defensive line.
- 59:03They bring in Xavion, Howard, Charvarius were trying to
- 59:05reverse rebirth some veteran corners and they had they've had
- 59:08trouble drafting edge rushers really since they had Frannie
- 59:10and Mathis. It's been a curse for them for a
- 59:12while. They're linebacker, but you're
- 59:14right, that offensive line is top ten in football.
- 59:16Braden Smith's a very good one. Bernard Ryman, who held my L22
- 59:19team last year, was very good. And like you said, Daniel Jones
- 59:21is just a better thrower of the football.
- 59:23So they're going to be a little more efficient than Anthony
- 59:25Richardson. How much more is it going to be
- 59:26the question? That'll be the difference in the
- 59:28making the playoffs. And I don't want everybody to
- 59:30jump on this that I think Danny Dimes is going to put up 4000
- 59:33yards and he's going to run for like 8 touchdowns.
- 59:36All I'm saying is he's going to be efficient, he's going to put
- 59:40up decent numbers. And if you need a quarterback in
- 59:42your fantasy league, if it's 14 or even 16 teams, you can pick
- 59:47up a guy like Danny Dimes and and maybe depend 3000 yards or
- 59:513200 yards, 8 touchdowns, 7 touchdowns run in and maybe 700
- 59:56yards when it comes to mobile, because he's a mobile
- 59:58quarterback that can make plays in the open field.
- 1:00:01Giant fans know that. Well, he could before he got
- 1:00:05hurt, you know, And then he got hurt.
- 1:00:08And then he wasn't as good and not as accurate and he can't hit
- 1:00:11anybody in the preseason. If you watched any of the games
- 1:00:13he doesn't he hit. He misses open receivers.
- 1:00:15Like looking like arch man. You just hate 1 Daniel Jones
- 1:00:19because he was a Giant. Tell me if I'm wrong.
- 1:00:21He missed everybody in the preseason.
- 1:00:22Wide open guys, you hate him. It doesn't matter if he was
- 1:00:25good. It's preseason.
- 1:00:27Nobody cares. Watched him for a number of
- 1:00:30years. So he does not know how to run
- 1:00:33an offense that works in the NFL.
- 1:00:36I don't expect them. This is how they're going to
- 1:00:38win. He throws the ball 15 * a game.
- 1:00:42Jonathan Stewart gets 37 carries behind a great offensive line
- 1:00:47and they play 1980s and 1990s football.
- 1:00:50That's the only way they're winning with Daniel Jones
- 1:00:52record. And you're right, speedy, he's
- 1:00:54better than Anthony Richard, Jonathan.
- 1:00:55But that says a lot about Anthony Richard, not retired.
- 1:00:58He's come a long way since you guys interviewed at the Super
- 1:01:01Bowl. He.
- 1:01:01Retired. He was playing, he was walking
- 1:01:04around with his backpack over that radio raw.
- 1:01:06So that's as close as he's going to get to a football field and
- 1:01:09hopefully has some footballs in that basketball bag.
- 1:01:12So I, I honestly, Daniel Jones is not as bad as you think he
- 1:01:16is, but hey, only time will tell.
- 1:01:19True that. All right, so let's get to the
- 1:01:21next division we got and we only got about 8 minutes for this, so
- 1:01:24we're going to go a little quicker right now we've got the
- 1:01:27AFC North. Everyone knows the Browns are
- 1:01:30terrible let's start there. How bad do you think the odds
- 1:01:33are? Let's just guess for the Browns
- 1:01:35to win that division 1700, no worse really plus 2200 worse
- 1:01:435000 no 3000 + 3000 for the Browns to win.
- 1:01:49I'm betting on you want to talk about that debacle, You want to
- 1:01:51just move on No, let's move on. I, I think they're going to be
- 1:01:53really, really bad and, and honestly.
- 1:01:55I think it's obvious. I'm interested to see what
- 1:01:58they're going to do with Jerry Judy.
- 1:01:59If he starts off really strong. Do they move him at the trade
- 1:02:02deadline? Because Jerry Judy might be a
- 1:02:03nice he was because Jamis was throwing jump balls to him.
- 1:02:06And let's face it, no they don't have Jamis throwing to him right
- 1:02:09now. How long before Jamis just goes
- 1:02:11to the media? Like stop trying to be a
- 1:02:14quarterback at this point. I think it's going to be soon
- 1:02:16and I think he's going to be great with the media.
- 1:02:18Joe Flacco is not a bad quarterback and I think he's
- 1:02:20going to be able to get how long is he going to stay healthy at
- 1:02:23age 40, though? That's fine.
- 1:02:24That's fine. I think Jerry Judy is going to
- 1:02:26have a better year than you think he's going to have.
- 1:02:28I just don't think it's going to be as good as last year.
- 1:02:31I think if they, if you're hoping that that guy who's never
- 1:02:33shown that he was that good, you know, to do that, I don't know,
- 1:02:36but they got the Steelers at plus 550.
- 1:02:39Not a lot of faith in your boy a Rod Errol after his performance
- 1:02:44in MetLife Stadium last year. I like the kid Johnson that they
- 1:02:47drafted in the third round. The running back.
- 1:02:49I think he I think he's going to be the starting running back.
- 1:02:52I know everybody keeps thinking that it's going to be Warren and
- 1:02:55he's going to run away with the because he could be a three back
- 1:02:58type of running back and that's why they decided to move Naji
- 1:03:00Harris and not bring him back. I think obviously it's going to
- 1:03:04be Johnson. I think he's going to be the
- 1:03:05number one guy and it's going to be Warren again, where you're
- 1:03:07going to be able to move him around.
- 1:03:08He can catch the ball in the backfield.
- 1:03:10The question is who's the number two guy as the wide receiver?
- 1:03:13You know, DK Metcalf is there. We understand that they have two
- 1:03:16tight ends there. Their offensive line is fairly
- 1:03:19good. And Mike Tomlin is this his
- 1:03:21final year? Because I know he's under
- 1:03:23contract. I know he extended his contract,
- 1:03:25but if he has another year where he gets knocked out if they
- 1:03:29don't make the playoffs, but if they make the playoffs and get
- 1:03:31knocked out in the first round, Oh my.
- 1:03:33Oh, my God, yeah. You can't bring them back nine
- 1:03:35straight years being knocked out in the first round.
- 1:03:38I I just, there's there's no depth.
- 1:03:39They're a good defensive team. They're always a great team,
- 1:03:42defensive team with TJ Watt there, they're going to be
- 1:03:44explosive on the defensive line. And they have very good
- 1:03:46secretary in Porter as well. So I think they're going to be
- 1:03:49fine. And they made that trade for,
- 1:03:51you know, trading. Was it Fitzpatrick in the
- 1:03:54offseason? Yeah.
- 1:03:55So. Jalen Ramsey, your boy.
- 1:03:57Jalen Ramsey is going to play a big part on the secondary and
- 1:04:00the defensive side of the ball. I think they're going to be a
- 1:04:02prolific top end defense, but offensively are they going to be
- 1:04:06able to do enough? Are they?
- 1:04:07And I think there's structure to just be an all world running
- 1:04:10team. A guy like Aaron Rodgers isn't
- 1:04:13the same guy he was when he was with Greenback.
- 1:04:15Yeah, it's a bad fit because also DK Metcalf wants to stretch
- 1:04:18the field and he doesn't really have an elaborate route tree
- 1:04:20like the whole thing at different levels and Aaron
- 1:04:23Rodgers needs that type of guy at this point in his career.
- 1:04:26Fish, what you were mentioning with the tight ends too, I was
- 1:04:28curious on like, maybe they do they go that right?
- 1:04:30I love Darnell Washington out of the draft.
- 1:04:32At the time when they got him, there's been a lot of injury
- 1:04:34issues. He's still got Friar, moved
- 1:04:35there. Now you got Jonny Smith, so I
- 1:04:37see an 8-9 win team. Yeah.
- 1:04:39I don't know if it's going to be that that.
- 1:04:40Good job. What do you think?
- 1:04:42Yeah, I kind of I kind of just want to see Aaron Rodgers go
- 1:04:46give the big middle finger to everybody, to be honest with
- 1:04:48you, just because I think it'll be hilarious.
- 1:04:51But I think they'll probably he'll find a way to scratch
- 1:04:56probably seven or eight wins. I don't see any more than that.
- 1:05:00I think it's the last year at Tomlin, right this.
- 1:05:03If they don't get to 500, it'd be the first time in his career.
- 1:05:06I think that's going to happen this year.
- 1:05:08I don't think I think he's going to be the thing he's going to be
- 1:05:10out. But let's move on to the top two
- 1:05:13teams in this division. The Ravens are sitting at -150
- 1:05:17at the top of the division with the Bengals, I'm assuming with
- 1:05:20no faith in their defense whatsoever at plus 240, despite
- 1:05:25the fact Joe Burrow might be a guy who can throw 5000 yards
- 1:05:28this year. Derek Henry has to stay healthy.
- 1:05:30They need Derek Henry to stay healthy and do not exactly what
- 1:05:33he did last year. But Lamar Jackson, we know what
- 1:05:36he can do offensively. The defense is going to be
- 1:05:38elite. We know they can go at it and
- 1:05:40they can they can compete with anybody offensively and
- 1:05:43defensively. I they're they're a good running
- 1:05:45team. The question is, and I'll go
- 1:05:47back to it, the depth of their wide receiving corps.
- 1:05:51Do they have enough? They couldn't really show up in
- 1:05:54the playoffs and they haven't showed up in the playoffs
- 1:05:57back-to-back years. As far as the wide receivers are
- 1:06:00concerned. If they show Bateman stays
- 1:06:02healthy and they can do more on the offensive side of the ball
- 1:06:06with deep throats, Baltimore is going to be the best team in the
- 1:06:09NFCI. Don't think you can argue that.
- 1:06:10They've got everything and Lamar Jackson is by far the best wide.
- 1:06:14The best best quarterback in the NFLI.
- 1:06:17Don't think you can argue that two way.
- 1:06:19A guy that can use mobility and his arm strength to dominate a
- 1:06:24game. Yeah, the defense.
- 1:06:25Filled with the biggest thing they need and Malachi starts out
- 1:06:27of the draft. They had trouble guarding slot
- 1:06:28receivers. They get more corner depth as
- 1:06:30well, bringing in Jair Alexander receiving depth.
- 1:06:33I agree with you as a bit of a concern.
- 1:06:34We'll see what DeAndre Hopkins is, but Bateman when he was
- 1:06:36healthy last year was very good. I agree this is the best team in
- 1:06:38the AFC if they could stay healthy.
- 1:06:40And the Bengals, by the way, they got nothing defensively.
- 1:06:44I have no idea, no idea how they're going to stop any other
- 1:06:49team. They're going to have to put up
- 1:06:504050 points, which they can. Joe Burrow, Higgins and and
- 1:06:55obviously Jamar Chase they got. I got Chase Brown, who could
- 1:06:59probably run the ball and he's so overrated.
- 1:07:01I don't know why anybody thinks a guy like Chase Brown is one of
- 1:07:05the elite running backs in the league, but nevertheless, the
- 1:07:07offensive lines and they're going to be able to put up
- 1:07:10points defensively. Trey Hendrickson might not even
- 1:07:12stay there. They might be traded at the
- 1:07:14trade deadline. They did extend them.
- 1:07:16They gave him a one year, $30 million deal.
- 1:07:18I, I think he's underpaid for, to me, one of the best pass
- 1:07:21rushers in all the football. So that's what I got to say
- 1:07:23about the Bengals. They're not even making the
- 1:07:25playoffs. I I think they fall out, they
- 1:07:27miss the playoffs. Yeah, I mean.
- 1:07:31I do before we move on, I do like Lamar Jackson being able to
- 1:07:36address what people said he wasn't great at and he's
- 1:07:39becoming above average thrower now.
- 1:07:41So hats off to him To be able to spread the floor, the floor
- 1:07:45spread the field to be able to not only be 1 dimensional, but
- 1:07:48but go and do the yeah floor field.
- 1:07:50Same thing right before we get to the AFC East and Errol gets
- 1:07:55to spend some time on The Jets. No, I'm not going to spend too
- 1:07:57much time. I I have to show you what
- 1:08:00ChatGPT thinks of the Indiana Jones version of Daniel Jones
- 1:08:05over here coming in with the whip into Indy trying to get to
- 1:08:11the AFC S title. All right, not really here we go
- 1:08:15guys to the AFC East. How bad do you think The Jets
- 1:08:19are? Fate are dogs in this division.
- 1:08:24I will say this losing Elijah Vera Tucker today for the season
- 1:08:27definitely hurts the New York Jets, especially what they're
- 1:08:30going to do with Justin Fields and running the ball.
- 1:08:32You expected that this offensive line is going to be the strength
- 1:08:35of this team. I still think it's a strength.
- 1:08:37You didn't lose your tackles, but losing a guard of that
- 1:08:39magnitude a guy that was looking to get a contract in the
- 1:08:42offseason this this was his fifth year and and The Jets were
- 1:08:45talking about maybe extending him.
- 1:08:47I don't think they can. And now I'm hearing they're
- 1:08:49moving tipman, possibly to the guard position and moving Myers
- 1:08:54as their center. I think that works.
- 1:08:56I think Tippmann's a better guard for his size than he is as
- 1:09:00a center. But again, I I thought, I
- 1:09:03thought that this team was going to have that depth.
- 1:09:05And now as far as the the defense, this is going to be an
- 1:09:07elite defense. There's no question.
- 1:09:09I think will McDonald's going to be one of the elite guys in the
- 1:09:12league when it comes to Sachs. I think he's going to go at you
- 1:09:15and he's going to be able to attack.
- 1:09:16He's got many different ways to beat you on the outside added
- 1:09:20added 15 lbs of muscle in the offseason and I now you have
- 1:09:23Jermaine Johnson whenever he comes back this year, is it week
- 1:09:253 or week 4, he's going to add that depth as far as the run
- 1:09:29defense and they added guys they made moves before the season in
- 1:09:33Phillips. I think they're going to be able
- 1:09:34to stop the run this year. So if they can get the triple
- 1:09:38team off of Quinton Williams, Quinn Williams can have one of
- 1:09:41his best seasons. I think he right behind the one
- 1:09:44Dexter Lauren, sexy Dexy. I think he's the second best
- 1:09:47defensive tackle in football. So we we want to see more
- 1:09:50Quinton Williams. We want to see what they could
- 1:09:51do Justin Fields, he can have a season.
- 1:09:54I think Aaron Glenn is the real deal.
- 1:09:56I think he's a great guy. I I think they're going to be
- 1:09:58able to run the ball. Wide receivers, no depth
- 1:10:01whatsoever. I want to see what Taylor can do
- 1:10:03all season long. Young, young, a young tight end.
- 1:10:07It usually takes three years for him to develop, but I think he's
- 1:10:10going to be fun to watch. Garrett Wilson will be fun.
- 1:10:12If you drafted him, he's going to put up 1000 yards.
- 1:10:14He's going to give you about 9 or 10 touchdowns.
- 1:10:16But Justin Fields is the secret to the success of this offense.
- 1:10:19So better than the Dolphins? Yes, better than the Dolphins.
- 1:10:23I actually have the opposite better than the Patriots because
- 1:10:26I think the Patriots are a little overhyped this year.
- 1:10:28I think I think they had a lot of free agents that they brought
- 1:10:31in. There's a lot of new all at
- 1:10:32once, especially with the new coaching staff.
- 1:10:33And they overpaid a lot of defensive players in my opinion.
- 1:10:36And their offense maybe got a little better, but I I don't
- 1:10:38know how much better that they got.
- 1:10:40The Jets to me, have a lot more real threats on offense.
- 1:10:42Like Errol saying the offensive line besides the Bills in this
- 1:10:45division is easily way better than the Patriots and the
- 1:10:47Dolphins. I don't think they're a playoff
- 1:10:48team, The Jets, but this reminds me of like the 2022 Lions.
- 1:10:51They're going to be in every game, establish A-Team culture,
- 1:10:54A-78 win team that's going to be very tough to beat.
- 1:10:56If they can get any level of a passing game, like a top 15 type
- 1:10:59passing game, they're a playoff team easily.
- 1:11:04Yeah, I mean, I, I just, I'm going to keep a clicker or a
- 1:11:06tally of of how many times we have to talk about The Jets and
- 1:11:09the good and the bad when when everything gets going because we
- 1:11:12know Errol's going to going to get going.
- 1:11:14But realistically, like Errol, like fandom aside, and like a
- 1:11:18fan, like, do you think eight wins is realistic for The Jets?
- 1:11:21No. I think The Jets in a good
- 1:11:24season, 7 wins will be a good season for a guy like Aaron
- 1:11:27Glenn. I, I I don't think they get to 8
- 1:11:30this year. A lot of people think they can
- 1:11:32win 10 the way the schedule is set up for them.
- 1:11:34I just don't. I don't think they have enough
- 1:11:36wide receivers. I think that's what they look in
- 1:11:39the draft next year. They look for a quarterback who
- 1:11:42probably is the future. We were talking about that
- 1:11:45yesterday with Mr. Booty. I expect, I expect that's where
- 1:11:50The Jets go with that and wide receiver.
- 1:11:52That's what they're missing. Maybe they make a trade for
- 1:11:55Myers if he becomes available or maybe Alave because we've heard
- 1:11:59Alave wants to move and he him and Justin Fields and Garrett
- 1:12:02Wilson are very close. So if The Jets could add Alave
- 1:12:05at some point, then we're talking about maybe a borderline
- 1:12:099 win team, but without that secondary wide receiver.
- 1:12:12Now, I I don't see it. I don't see it all.
- 1:12:14I do believe there are top three defense though.
- 1:12:16I do Well, guys, we have one obvious favorite in this
- 1:12:22division as the Buffalo Bills sitting at -270 to win the
- 1:12:26division. Very many people think of them
- 1:12:29as Super Bowl favorites going into the season from the AFC, at
- 1:12:34least to get there, right? A lot of people picking the
- 1:12:36Eagles, but that would be pretty interesting matchup.
- 1:12:39Josh Allen seems to be unstoppable to the the naked
- 1:12:43eye. He was able to beat the Chiefs
- 1:12:45in that in the snow game during the regular season.
- 1:12:47Couldn't get away with it by the, you know, skin of it.
- 1:12:50Knuckles of Dalton Kincaid not being able to make that catch in
- 1:12:53the postseason. Pretty close to being a perfect
- 1:12:57throw as well in a impossible, impossible play with Spags with
- 1:13:01a corner blitz out of nowhere. We talked a lot of people at the
- 1:13:04Super Bowl about that play, guys, how good are the Bills and
- 1:13:08are they Super Bowl? Possibly.
- 1:13:10It's all about their defense. And again, this goes to
- 1:13:13coaching. This is might be the final year
- 1:13:16of their head coach if this team does not go to a Super Bowl and
- 1:13:19they fall short once again. They went to an AFC title game
- 1:13:22and lost against the same Kansas City Chief team.
- 1:13:24They're better than Kansas City. They are still one of the elite,
- 1:13:28one of the lead teams in the AFCI think they're the second
- 1:13:30best team, right behind Baltimore.
- 1:13:32They have the defense, they have the running game.
- 1:13:35They paid Cook in the offseason. I want to see Cook be used
- 1:13:39important parts of the game. They stopped running the ball
- 1:13:42against Kansas City in the AFC title game when they were
- 1:13:45absolutely killing Kansas City in the run game.
- 1:13:47And and by the way, I want to see Coleman actually take that
- 1:13:51next step as a number one wide receiver.
- 1:13:54They don't really have enough depth on the wide receiving.
- 1:13:56So they got to they got to on Kincaid to be that guy and be
- 1:14:00that guy that's going to be consistent, which she was
- 1:14:03inconsistent last year as the number one, I think pass catcher
- 1:14:08for the Buffalo Bills. So I do believe they're for
- 1:14:10real. I think they're a 1011 win team.
- 1:14:13They are a Super Bowl contender. Josh Allen gets married.
- 1:14:18I looks very, very happy. Hard Knocks.
- 1:14:20They look like they're fun team to watch and but McDermott is on
- 1:14:24the hot seat. But boys and I think if this
- 1:14:26team, if this team doesn't start off strong from the gates,
- 1:14:31they're going to have a problem. Yeah, I'm, well, it's one thing
- 1:14:33I'm worried about. I'll make it quick as our guess
- 1:14:35is in the secondary is the biggest thing because they can't
- 1:14:37draft corners to save their life.
- 1:14:38Safeties they've had issues with.
- 1:14:40It's weird to think like when McDermott started, they had a
- 1:14:42great secondary. Now they have a great pass rush
- 1:14:43and don't have the secondary. So they're going to need a
- 1:14:45couple veteran pieces. I agree with the Ravens one.
- 1:14:47Bills 2, Chiefs 3 and Broncos 4 for me in the AFC.
- 1:14:50There you go. Yeah.
- 1:14:51All right. Yeah, I agree.
- 1:14:53Go ahead. Go ahead.
- 1:14:54White looked looked pretty good in Hard Knocks.
- 1:14:57Maybe he's really back from that.
- 1:14:59If that happens and he can play, you know, 75 to 85% of what he
- 1:15:03used to be as an all pro corner, that could give them just enough
- 1:15:07to to be really, really dangerous defensively.
- 1:15:10Guys, that's our AFC preview. It's been, it's going to be a
- 1:15:14real exciting season. I don't want to hear, I don't
- 1:15:16want to hear from Dion Dawkins all season.
- 1:15:18I can't stand the SOP. I can't stand that man.
- 1:15:22All right, So as long as he keeps his mouth shut, I'll be
- 1:15:26very excited. And I think Buffalo is
- 1:15:28definitely the team to beat in the AFC East.
- 1:15:30I don't think that is an argument.
- 1:15:31All right, ladies and gentlemen, my deuce of the day.
- 1:15:33The deuce of the day you log not a log.
- 1:15:37I don't have a log, but no. All right, ladies and gentlemen,
- 1:15:48my deuce of the day goes to the New England Patriots, as today
- 1:15:54they've come out and said that they're going to build a statue.
- 1:15:57Of who? Not Tom Brady, because it's
- 1:16:00already there of Bill Belichick. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, he's
- 1:16:05going to have a wonderful statue built over there in Fox.
- 1:16:10I call it Foxwoods because that's all I care about is going
- 1:16:14and making a bet. Ladies and gentlemen, what does
- 1:16:16that smell? It smells like garbage.
- 1:16:18I could care less about Bill Belichick.
- 1:16:20He walked out on the New York Jets 24 hours when he got the
- 1:16:23job. Bill Parcells just screwed up.
- 1:16:25And let me tell you something, Billy.
- 1:16:27Billy Bell, what are you doing over there with North Carolina?
- 1:16:30I'm going to tell you what, when you build the statue, I'll make
- 1:16:33make sure I lay a nice little. Doo Doo.
- 1:16:36On it. That's what I'm going to say.
- 1:16:38It's absolute crap I could care about.
- 1:16:40I can't care less about Tom Brady and Bill Belichick.
- 1:16:43And by the way, Tom, I know you're a little announcement
- 1:16:45when they announced your nice little statue.
- 1:16:48I'm going to tell you this about the New York Jets.
- 1:16:50If it wasn't for Bill Belichick leaving and going to your one
- 1:16:53and only New England Patriots, you would have been a New York
- 1:16:56Jet, you ass. All right, that's it.
- 1:16:57That's my dues of the day. I had to say that I had to give
- 1:17:01that I could careless if they're building a statue or a nice
- 1:17:04little thumbs up right to Bill Belichick and Tom Brady.
- 1:17:07All right, when we come back, ladies and gentlemen, we will
- 1:17:10have a guy that we know very, very well.
- 1:17:13We had his Co founder on the show last week.
- 1:17:16He knows a little bit about us. I know a lot about him.
- 1:17:19Yes, Co founder of all 22 fantasy football, which was
- 1:17:23today the one and only Chris Lombardi.
- 1:17:25But first, our sports minute with the one and only Mr. Fish
- 1:17:29himself. This is the Jabba and the Mouth
- 1:17:34Sportsman ads. All right guys, Aaron Fishman
- 1:17:38here with your sports minute. Got a few stories before we get
- 1:17:42into the scores this evening. Florida State University's
- 1:17:45celebration after knocking off Alabama and jumping to #14 in
- 1:17:49the AP poll from being unranked unfortunately came to a
- 1:17:52screeching halt shortly after, as reports came in earlier on
- 1:17:56Wednesday about freshman reserve linebacker Ethan Pritchard, who
- 1:17:59was shot in the back of the head Sunday night.
- 1:18:02Richard, remarkably, is in stable condition at Tallahassee
- 1:18:06Memorial Hospital. Richard's father, Earl, said
- 1:18:08that Pritchard was shot while driving his aunt home from a
- 1:18:11family get together in Havana, FL, near the Georgia border.
- 1:18:14The case is currently under criminal investigation.
- 1:18:17Head coach Mike Norvell said Wednesday that he was able to
- 1:18:20visit Pritchard in the hospital briefly.
- 1:18:22It's a lot. I'm not going to say it's not,
- 1:18:24Norbell said. I try to give players a daily
- 1:18:27update. I was able to go by yesterday
- 1:18:29for a short period of time with limited visitation, just getting
- 1:18:32a chance to be there for a handful of minutes.
- 1:18:34It was good to be with him. He's still in stable condition.
- 1:18:37We are absolutely praying for him every day and trying to be
- 1:18:41there for our players, too. Yes, it's one thing on the
- 1:18:43field, but it's also off the field.
- 1:18:45That's one of their brothers and a guy they deeply care about.
- 1:18:48Just working through this part of the tragedy of what it is.
- 1:18:51Extra prayers to Pritchard and his family as he hopefully
- 1:18:54recovers from this senseless tragedy.
- 1:18:57As Errol said just a second ago in the the bit with The Jets,
- 1:19:01they The Jets announced earlier today that Elijah Vera Tucker,
- 1:19:05their guard, may miss the entire season with the torn triceps
- 1:19:08that he suffered in practice on Tuesday.
- 1:19:11Vera Tucker is seeking a second opinion to see if he can avoid a
- 1:19:14season ending surgery. Sheriff Tucker, who's 26, is in
- 1:19:18the last year of his rookie contract and will make 15.3
- 1:19:21million guaranteed. His durability has been an issue
- 1:19:24his entire career, missing 12 games in 2023 with the torn
- 1:19:27Achilles and tearing his other triceps in 2022 missing another
- 1:19:3110 games. It's a serious blow for both the
- 1:19:33player and the team, which could certainly use a quality guard in
- 1:19:36their expected heavy run focused offense with new signal caller
- 1:19:39Justin Fields under center. And finally, ESPN Shamsurania
- 1:19:44reports that the Dallas Mavericks in power forward PJ
- 1:19:47Washington agreed to a four year $90,000,000 extension on
- 1:19:50Wednesday. With Washington in the fold, the
- 1:19:52Mavs now have agreed with Washington, Gafford, Kyrie
- 1:19:56Irving and this offseason keeping their core together
- 1:19:59around rookie number one pick Cooper Flag.
- 1:20:01Washington came over at the trade deadline two years ago,
- 1:20:04averaged 14.7 points, 7.8 boards and over a block in the steal
- 1:20:08game with 38% three-point shooting with.
- 1:20:12Anthony Davis, Washington Gaffer Derrick Lively, the 2nd and
- 1:20:15flag. The Mavericks are loaded in the
- 1:20:17front court, and at some point we'll have Kyrie Irving back
- 1:20:19from his torn ACL suffered last year.
- 1:20:22Not bad for a team that inexplicably fumble Luka Doncic
- 1:20:26away to the Lakers at the deadline this past season.
- 1:20:29At least on paper. Guys, we are streaming live on

- 1:24:06Like that I call it a meat. And you can pick between three
- 1:24:10different types of deals. You type in the code that comes
- 1:24:12with it, we'll ship it to you and then you guys are going to
- 1:24:14pick it. So be looking for that.
- 1:24:16We'll. We'll do that here too.
- 1:24:18Tenderizer. Yeah, that's what I was looking
- 1:24:19for. Oops.
- 1:24:21I like, I like meat beater better.
- 1:24:23I like the meat beater. Speaking of beating meats,
- 1:24:26ladies and gentlemen, you're all 22 is now over.
- 1:24:31I don't know about beating meats.
- 1:24:32Beating knows all about it. And hopefully.
- 1:24:34I only know bending meats. You you bend meat.
- 1:24:36I was the meat Bender. That's right, but do you bend
- 1:24:38meat and beat it? I don't know.
- 1:24:40Job is the meat beater. I'm the Bender.
- 1:24:41Well, if you want him to beat your meat, I'm just kidding
- 1:24:44anyways. No, no, no, I'm not.
- 1:24:47None of that meat meeting. Over a double denial.
- 1:24:50Chris, obviously, let's get into some fantasy football and the
- 1:24:56number one player in this year's fantasy football was Jamar
- 1:24:59Chase, now obviously well respected in the league as one
- 1:25:03of the top three wide receivers and having the season that he
- 1:25:07had Joe Burrow getting his new contract.
- 1:25:09T Higgins, this team could be explosive, but are they going to
- 1:25:13be as explosive as they were last year?
- 1:25:16And why was Jamar Chase over Saquon Barkley or BJ Robinson,
- 1:25:20who? I think Dijon Robinson who was
- 1:25:22sensational all last year and very healthy, Why do you think
- 1:25:26fantasy and football put him as the number one guy?
- 1:25:30Jamar Chase. Yeah, it feels like things have
- 1:25:33changed over the last few years where receivers are starting to
- 1:25:35get a lot more love than they used to, right?
- 1:25:37And this is a a time when, you know, people are changing the
- 1:25:41rules a little bit. They're given some points for
- 1:25:42receptions and things like that. So I think it's just a little
- 1:25:45bit more glamorous. People have just been hurt too
- 1:25:48many times by running backs. I mean, it's every year that
- 1:25:51running backs go down with injuries.
- 1:25:52Yes, Bijan stayed healthy last year, so did Saquon.
- 1:25:56But I mean, if you've had Saquon in the last 5-6 years, you know
- 1:25:59that it's a rarity when he plays a complete season.
- 1:26:02And, and most running backs that is, that is going to be the case
- 1:26:05where receivers nowadays, you know, especially a guy like
- 1:26:08Chase who's tough as nails, right?
- 1:26:10Like, they do stick around, they stay on the field.
- 1:26:13You know, I'm saying all that. Meanwhile, his teammate T
- 1:26:14Higgins misses a lot of time, right?
- 1:26:16So I I do think it's by the player.
- 1:26:18You guys were talking about it before, though, right?
- 1:26:20Like Elijah Vera Tucker is out for the season again, right?
- 1:26:25Players that get hurt tend to get hurt again and again and
- 1:26:29again. Saquan again had a most
- 1:26:32unbelievable season last year, but it's a blessing when he
- 1:26:35stays healthy. You go the receiver route,
- 1:26:37especially one that stayed healthy.
- 1:26:38A guy like Jamar Chase makes all the sense.
- 1:26:40But you guys just had your all 22 draft, right?
- 1:26:42Like who went first in your draft?
- 1:26:44So Joe Burrow went number one overall to our our friend Shane
- 1:26:48Hallam, big NFL draft guy Hallelu, baby Hallelu and he.
- 1:26:54Won last year, didn't he? No, he was in the finals.
- 1:26:56He lost by, I think, less than a point to the Commissioner that
- 1:26:59now ditched us. The little bastard he is.
- 1:27:01I'm sorry. Yeah.
- 1:27:02So that was the problem. That's why I kept message you,
- 1:27:04Chris. We lost five teams as a result
- 1:27:06of that and. We finally.
- 1:27:07Had our had our draft as a result today, Errol actually had
- 1:27:10the number two pick and I, I drafted him a Laura Jackson
- 1:27:14because he couldn't make it. I gave him a Laura Jackson.
- 1:27:16Lamar is mine, baby. Yeah.
- 1:27:19Let's kick ass tonight. Let's kick ass today.
- 1:27:22Let's kick ass all season. I'm sorry, I just had to do
- 1:27:24that. And by the way, race, I'm not
- 1:27:27licking anyone. By the way, race.
- 1:27:28Ray must have encouraged his friend Ivan, who just joined the
- 1:27:31league late to draft the Gremlin Travis Hunter irrelevant.
- 1:27:35Oh, OK. Yeah, love that.
- 1:27:37So when Ray was on the show a few weeks ago, Errol and him got
- 1:27:40into a lot of it, which was Hunter with what type of player
- 1:27:43he's going to be. And I was curious what it went
- 1:27:45for all 22 because I'm like, oh, is he going to be both?
- 1:27:47I don't care. Listen to the receiver.
- 1:27:49But yeah, let's stay on that. What is your thoughts?
- 1:27:51With, that's not the. Gremlin Travis Hunter.
- 1:27:54Travis Hunter, I mean, I'm, I like him, I'm excited for him.
- 1:27:57I mean, he's, he likes to dance and practice and he's obviously
- 1:28:01a big personality, but there's just no denying how how.
- 1:28:04Building this, Chris, please, because they're.
- 1:28:06All. Just getting more mad, more mad.
- 1:28:09I love me. I'll keep going, man.
- 1:28:11I mean, I do think, I do think there's a chance that this is
- 1:28:14the best year by a country mile that we see from Trevor
- 1:28:18Lawrence, right? Maybe Travis Hunter only ends up
- 1:28:21having 800 receiving yards. But if it makes Travis, Trevor
- 1:28:26Lawrence is what I meant to say, If it makes Trevor Lawrence
- 1:28:28significantly better, then it's worth it, right?
- 1:28:31And I think if they win games and what what happens when you
- 1:28:34have a receiving duo like Brian Thomas Junior and Travis Hunter,
- 1:28:38it's going to result in winning games and it's going to result
- 1:28:40in Trevor Lawrence really being a better player.
- 1:28:43That's what matters. Will he end up playing some
- 1:28:45defense too and make the defense a little bit better maybe.
- 1:28:48I mean, I'm excited for it. I'm curious, Errol, why?
- 1:28:51What's with all the hate? Here we go.
- 1:28:55First of all, here's the reason why I don't like him.
- 1:28:57I was there at the Heisman Trophy.
- 1:28:59I I got a chance to meet the guy.
- 1:29:01He's a complete ass and he stands there like he's done
- 1:29:05something. He shouldn't have won the
- 1:29:06Heisman. First of all, I, I thought what
- 1:29:08Ashton Gente should have won the Heisman.
- 1:29:10He was the best player in the country.
- 1:29:12He put up the numbers. He deserved it.
- 1:29:14And a lot of people, both quarterbacks, believe that
- 1:29:17Travis Hunter shouldn't have won.
- 1:29:18And he only won because he had prima Donna and he's Prime's
- 1:29:20little boyfriend. That's the fact, OK.
- 1:29:23And the fact that Prime came out and tried to compare him to
- 1:29:25himself, he is not Deion Sanders.
- 1:29:28He will never be Deion Sanders. And he needs to stop believing
- 1:29:31that he is. And Deion Sanders got to stop
- 1:29:33telling people that he's not, that he is.
- 1:29:35I I do believe Travis Hunter is a lot better than I say he is,
- 1:29:39but seven years will be the longest he is in the NFLI think
- 1:29:43the guy is nothing but a crybaby, opens his mouth too
- 1:29:45much and teammates and players are not going to like him and
- 1:29:48they're going to make sure that they bust him in the jaw.
- 1:29:51He's the kind of guy that reminds me of Geno Smith.
- 1:29:55Remember what happened to Geno Smith when he was a New York
- 1:29:57Jet? I do remember his linebacker
- 1:30:00punched him in the jaw and broke his jaw and he was out for the
- 1:30:03season because he didn't pay $500 on a bet he lost.
- 1:30:06Travis Hunter is one of those guys.
- 1:30:08I'm just I my statement here is I don't like the guy.
- 1:30:11I met him. So you're going to say, well,
- 1:30:13you don't know him, I don't know him.
- 1:30:15I met him. He's an ass.
- 1:30:17Well, I one thing I will say because I have not met him, but
- 1:30:19I think he is definitely a better cornerback than he is a
- 1:30:22wide receiver. And I think that the right thing
- 1:30:24to do would have been to make him a full time corner and a
- 1:30:28part time receiver. Obviously the Jags didn't do
- 1:30:31that, but we'll, but we'll see, right?
- 1:30:34We'll see. We'll see what happens.
- 1:30:35I will agree with one thing you said as well is that if you
- 1:30:38watch the college tape, there are times where he's going in on
- 1:30:41a tackle and he gets bulldozed over by somebody and it looks
- 1:30:45like his chest got caved in, right?
- 1:30:46So like, will this guy actually stay healthy for a full NFL
- 1:30:49season? It's different in college,
- 1:30:50right? Like I played college football
- 1:30:53on 160 lbs. Like you will face guys that
- 1:30:55will never see the NFL field, right?
- 1:30:58When you get to the NFL level, these guys hit different, right?
- 1:31:02And when you play against that all the time, like again, he he
- 1:31:05didn't play against receivers like Jamar Chase every Sunday,
- 1:31:08like that's going to be a problem for a guy like Travis
- 1:31:10Hunter just in terms of the physicality.
- 1:31:12He could guard him, Chris, but he's going to take some shots.
- 1:31:14Chris, when he was a defensive player last year, he didn't play
- 1:31:18one top wide receiver in the country.
- 1:31:21Go look, go look at the teams that he played.
- 1:31:24They were a top SCC teams. I I mean, honestly, the
- 1:31:27conference was garbage. It was garbage.
- 1:31:29He didn't beat anybody and I know.
- 1:31:31He had some reps, Correct me if I'm wrong, but he had some reps
- 1:31:34Maybe it was his junior year, but against Tetero and McMillan.
- 1:31:37He actually played well in that game, but that was that was like
- 1:31:40with the only one that was like a big name receiver.
- 1:31:42Yes, and and again, he's got to do it every single week.
- 1:31:45Is he going to be able to compete every single week, week
- 1:31:48against the elite guys in the NFL and by the way, the lead
- 1:31:52elite corners? Is he going to be able to deal
- 1:31:54with Sauce Garner? He's going to be able to deal
- 1:31:56with Patrick Sir Tan when they're defending him as a wide
- 1:31:59receiver? That's the question.
- 1:32:01Yeah. Well, yeah, I mean.
- 1:32:03It's the it's the same. And Chris, you bring up a great
- 1:32:05point. It's like in his schedule and
- 1:32:08whatever. Yeah, he faced maybe one of
- 1:32:09those. Now you're going to face that
- 1:32:10one guy on a whole team of them and is his body going to be able
- 1:32:14to hold up? I mean, not the biggest dude,
- 1:32:17obviously they've I've only seen him on TV.
- 1:32:19I haven't seen him in person. So, but just comparable to some
- 1:32:22of the guys he's going to go against in, in the competition
- 1:32:24that he's played, like, yeah, he may have got to face that one
- 1:32:27dude, but now you're going to face all the dudes from the
- 1:32:29team. And now, and we were talking
- 1:32:31earlier about how is he going to get 60% on the field?
- 1:32:37And is his body going to hold up?
- 1:32:38And do they want him to do that? Because it's it's going to be
- 1:32:41different. He says he's ready.
- 1:32:42But when you actually strap it on and get to work, time will
- 1:32:45tell. And is he talented?
- 1:32:47Yes. Let's let's not take anything
- 1:32:49away from it. As much as Errol wants to talk
- 1:32:52like as he just said, he's like, yes, he is good.
- 1:32:54He's got leg for stilts. They're toothpicks, OK, I met
- 1:32:57him. They're like toothpicks.
- 1:33:00I don't know how this guy thinks he's gonna last in the NFL more
- 1:33:03than five. I mean, have you seen some of
- 1:33:06the guys? His legs, though, they're.
- 1:33:07Not. There's a lot of guys that
- 1:33:08they're not very. Big, I agree.
- 1:33:10Yeah. Like, I think Devonta Smith is a
- 1:33:11good comp for him, right, In terms of, like, what he can
- 1:33:14actually be as a receiver at the next level.
- 1:33:17Really good route runner. But you really depend on your
- 1:33:20athleticism. And Devonta Smith himself has
- 1:33:22been hurt quite a bit at the NFL level.
- 1:33:24And again, if he's going to try to do it on both sides, yeah,
- 1:33:28like, I think injuries start to stack up, unfortunately.
- 1:33:31I think he he should stick to corner, but that's that's not
- 1:33:34going to happen. See, This is why I like you, of
- 1:33:36course. This is why me and you, This is
- 1:33:38why a connection. I mean, your partner over there,
- 1:33:42we we go at it and I go at it with you sometimes as there you
- 1:33:45are. I mean, your partner over there
- 1:33:47has his own interesting, you know, comments in his takes with
- 1:33:51Travis, the the gremlin. He has like this love fest for
- 1:33:54the gremlin. You on the other hand, you like
- 1:33:57him. But yeah, kind of don't.
- 1:33:59So I, I think me and you have a connection here.
- 1:34:02I think me and you could be buddies.
- 1:34:04Your buddy over there. We can, we can smack each other
- 1:34:06or I'll smack them around a little bit.
- 1:34:08Damn. So you guys aren't buddies now?
- 1:34:09Like it took Travis Hunter to get you guys to be buddies.
- 1:34:12Damn, Meryl. That's a good job.
- 1:34:13I'm feeling hurt. Over here man.
- 1:34:14No doubt. Damn.
- 1:34:17I'm a New York guy too. Like we we could get drinks
- 1:34:19after after work one night, you know what I mean?
- 1:34:21Yeah, no doubt. Well, we're friends now, don't
- 1:34:25worry that you you Travis Hunter here below, but.
- 1:34:27Yeah. OK, we're good.
- 1:34:28Yeah, guys. But I'll tell you what, Ray has
- 1:34:30a lot of hard opinions and I deal with it like having
- 1:34:34arguments with Ray all the time. Then I I got Gray hair, so I get
- 1:34:37it. I get it, Trust me.
- 1:34:40Chris think of think of it as the solace this way.
- 1:34:42There's a lot of ex football players we have on the show that
- 1:34:44every interview will will take a shot of The Jets.
- 1:34:47So there. If there's ever one that sticks
- 1:34:48up for The Jets, he'll like all. Right, so here, here's the
- 1:34:50thing. And and I, I want to say this to
- 1:34:53all the guys and all the gals that come on this show.
- 1:34:56And for, for some reason, the first thing they attack when
- 1:34:59they find out I'm a Jet fan is hey, The Jets suck.
- 1:35:02They're a terrible organization. I know they're a terrible
- 1:35:04organization. I'm always down on the New York
- 1:35:07Jets. You have all these different
- 1:35:08radio show hosts, they're all over social media, there's
- 1:35:11millions of Jet fans following them.
- 1:35:13And why are they listening to the garbage that they're
- 1:35:15listening to? No matter what they're going to
- 1:35:17stake until this team finds themselves a quarterback and and
- 1:35:20he is going to be consistent, they're never going to win.
- 1:35:24So, and that's the facts. They're a good defensive team.
- 1:35:26They're built very well offensively, except they need
- 1:35:29another wide receiver, but they don't have a quarterback and I
- 1:35:31like Justin Fields. I don't know if Justin Fools is
- 1:35:34the guy, the future guy where they're going to win themselves
- 1:35:37a Super Bowl. That's the only problem.
- 1:35:38And by the way, congratulations to Brick ashore Ferguson as they
- 1:35:42built the street here in Freeport, they they called it to
- 1:35:46Brick Ashore Ferguson St. So congratulations to Debrick,
- 1:35:49very well deserved. One of the best offensive
- 1:35:52tackles to come out of Long Island, New York and he's a Hall
- 1:35:55of Famer, only missed one game in nine years.
- 1:35:58It is sensational. And he was great when he came
- 1:36:01out of college as well. So I had to add that job is your
- 1:36:03turn. Yeah, no, I was just I love when
- 1:36:08you get fired up. But no, it's just it's it's it's
- 1:36:11fun going into this seeing like all of you know the previews and
- 1:36:15guys and what they're going to do.
- 1:36:16Obviously we can cliche of of we see all the time health is one
- 1:36:20thing is there. I love talking about fantasy
- 1:36:22because it's always like this guy knows better.
- 1:36:24He did his research. Is there is there one for that
- 1:36:27like kind of just rose its head in in the draft that would
- 1:36:31probably surprise you in in the take that you have Chris on on
- 1:36:35the drafts and and and who would that because I'm interested
- 1:36:38because there's always like one that that stands out to people.
- 1:36:42That's, that's a great question. I mean, again, all 22 is a bit
- 1:36:45different. I'm going to answer as an all 22
- 1:36:47player, right, Because I'm going to do things a little
- 1:36:49differently. But Josh Simmons is an offensive
- 1:36:52tackle for the Chiefs that again, in all 22 you can draft
- 1:36:55offensive lineman. So offensive tackle sticks out.
- 1:36:59He's one of the players that during the preseason and during
- 1:37:01the draft process, Ray and I both agreed like he was by far
- 1:37:05the best offensive lineman in the draft in our opinions.
- 1:37:08Obviously Will Campbell goes to the Patriots like five overall
- 1:37:11or something like that. And Josh Simmons goes at the end
- 1:37:13of the first round. But now you're starting to kind
- 1:37:15of hear, right, like, oh, Josh Simmons is impressing a lot of
- 1:37:18people in practice. Oh, in his first 3 preseason
- 1:37:22games, he has an 84 run block or pass blocking game.
- 1:37:27You know, in those three preseason games, like he's, he's
- 1:37:29showing people like, hey, I'm going to be a starting offensive
- 1:37:32lineman at the next level. And guess what?
- 1:37:34The Chiefs in week one are starting him at left tackle.
- 1:37:36So in terms of like a sleeper offensive line is really hard to
- 1:37:40get right. And you just get like, the NFL
- 1:37:43just gave Patrick Mahomes a starting left tackle when like,
- 1:37:47maybe that could have been their team's Achilles heel, right?
- 1:37:51It's it's a it's a classic mistake.
- 1:37:52Classic mistake. You guys were talking about the
- 1:37:54Bills earlier. They drafted Maxwell Harrison in
- 1:37:56the first round right at cornerback.
- 1:37:58But like a total question mark of a cornerback.
- 1:38:00He's just kind of got speed. And then Josh Simmons, a
- 1:38:04starting left tackle, goes to the team that's, you know,
- 1:38:07perennial Super Bowl favorites. Now that's the player to me,
- 1:38:10Jabba, just like, again, talking from an all 22 perspective, if
- 1:38:13you slept on Josh Simmons and he's like available, go get him.
- 1:38:17Go make a trade for him. He's going to be a great player.
- 1:38:19But if you're asking me from traditional Isaac Tesla, the
- 1:38:24receiver for the Lions, people are starting to talk about him a
- 1:38:27little bit, right? I was totally shocked, right?
- 1:38:30This is a guy that basically had zero production in college, gets
- 1:38:33drafted in the third round. The lines trade three third
- 1:38:36round picks essentially to go get Isaac Tesla in the third
- 1:38:39round and he kind of proved all of us wrong, right?
- 1:38:42In his pre season games, I think he had three touchdowns.
- 1:38:45He led the league in pre season touchdowns.
- 1:38:47It's a pre season. It doesn't matter that much.
- 1:38:48But guess what? He's a starting wide receiver on
- 1:38:50the lines now and that's a really explosive offensive team.
- 1:38:54So I think there's a lot of people now starting to regret
- 1:38:56how they kind of let that guy slip past them.
- 1:38:59Maybe this guy's going to be something, again, not somebody I
- 1:39:01was super high on. So I think that answers your
- 1:39:03question a little bit more specifically.
- 1:39:05I wasn't a huge fan of him, but now you kind of have to take
- 1:39:08notice and say maybe this is a guy that's going to make a
- 1:39:10difference, you know, come week four or five down the season
- 1:39:13once he starts to get his feet under him.
- 1:39:15We are talking to cofounder of all 22 fantasy football, Chris
- 1:39:18Lombardi. He's a friend of the show.
- 1:39:20We love him. He's definitely an interesting
- 1:39:23personality we've had on the show quite a few times.
- 1:39:26You know, Chris, I've been back and forth with Mikey C Mikey C
- 1:39:29and me went back and forth for an hour and a half today talking
- 1:39:31about our drafts. And he has this love fest for
- 1:39:34Christian McCaffrey. Now, he says by the power of
- 1:39:37schedule, San Francisco is going to be a lot better than people
- 1:39:39say he's they're going to be. And Christian McCaffrey is going
- 1:39:42to be everything to that offense.
- 1:39:44I think he's on drugs. I think Christian McCaffrey is
- 1:39:46going to be good. Is he going to be, I think he's
- 1:39:50a top three, top 4 running back, but he's making him out to be
- 1:39:53like this guy could be up for MVP this year.
- 1:39:56Your thoughts to Christian McCaffrey and the power of
- 1:39:59schedule? And do you think that this
- 1:40:00offensive line is going to hold up enough for Christian
- 1:40:03McCaffrey to actually stay healthy all season long?
- 1:40:06Yeah, no, I mean, it's it's kind of like $1,000,000 question in
- 1:40:09reality, because I bet you there's about $1,000,000 worth
- 1:40:11of bets that are kind of banking on Christian McCaffrey being
- 1:40:13healthy this season. Goes to the conversation we had
- 1:40:16earlier, right? In terms of my thoughts, if a
- 1:40:18guy gets injured over and over and over again, why am I going
- 1:40:22to bank on him all of a sudden a year older being healthier,
- 1:40:25right? They just made a trade for Brian
- 1:40:28Robinson, junior from from Washington.
- 1:40:31And it's to me like that's a decent running back to go make a
- 1:40:35big trade for. That tells me that they also
- 1:40:39think like the 49ers think that they need to at least take some
- 1:40:42of the workload away from Christian McCaffrey because in
- 1:40:45order to keep him healthy, they need to run him less.
- 1:40:48So I don't expect him to get like, you know, total bell cow
- 1:40:52carries all game, all season long.
- 1:40:55I just don't expect that. Will his carries then be more
- 1:40:58valuable? Potentially.
- 1:40:59But again, that's banking that he stays healthy for 17 games.
- 1:41:02I just don't see that happening. I'm, I think I'm on the minority
- 1:41:07on that. People seem really high on him
- 1:41:08this year. I'm not one of those people.
- 1:41:10I, I again, I think that when running backs start to age, I
- 1:41:13walk away, right. I want those young guys.
- 1:41:16I'll go take risks on rookies before I take a guy like
- 1:41:18Christian McCaffrey, just because youth matters at the
- 1:41:21running back position so much more than just about anything
- 1:41:23else. So I'm going to go to the news
- 1:41:26that I'm sure you're excited about it as a Packer fan, they
- 1:41:28get Micah Parsons. Where does that put them in the
- 1:41:31NFC and Super Bowl contending process?
- 1:41:33Super Bowl winners, man, let's just, let's just talk about it,
- 1:41:36right? Super Bowl winners.
- 1:41:37That's all it is. It's either Super Bowl or bust.
- 1:41:39Micah Parsons is a Packer raised on 24/7 suicide watch as a
- 1:41:43Cowboy fan. And I'm very, very happy.
- 1:41:46I mean, guys like Micah Parsons, what you, you look at the
- 1:41:49analytics, right? They said that EPA per game,
- 1:41:52when Michael was on the field, the Cowboys were the best
- 1:41:55defense in the NFL. When he was off of the field,
- 1:41:57they were the worst team in defense in the NFL.
- 1:42:01You give that to a Packers team that already kind of had Super
- 1:42:04Bowl aspirations and you have to think that this defense goes
- 1:42:08from kind of middle of the pack to potentially one of those like
- 1:42:12top five defenses. I still think they got some
- 1:42:14holes on defense. They need some cornerback help.
- 1:42:16They need guys to step up, right.
- 1:42:17They really haven't had that in a few years.
- 1:42:19You know, they took bets on guys.
- 1:42:21You know, Jerry Alexander Leeson, free agency, Lucas Van
- 1:42:25Ness didn't become anything like they haven't really developed,
- 1:42:28but but they've had like 11 first round draft picks sitting
- 1:42:32on that defense. You add a guy like Michael
- 1:42:33Parsons and all of a sudden maybe you start to see things
- 1:42:36spark. Jordan Love is ready, right?
- 1:42:38Like I think he's kind of take the next step after a down year
- 1:42:41latcher when the team started to kind of figure him out.
- 1:42:44But you add Matthew Golden, you get you know, you get him what
- 1:42:46should be a much more unique route runner, a nuanced route
- 1:42:50runner than anything they've had with some serious speed.
- 1:42:53There's no reason that it doesn't happen.
- 1:42:56I'm sitting here today saying go put your money on the Packers,
- 1:42:59guys. Go put your money on the
- 1:43:00Packers. Well, you're a Packer fan.
- 1:43:02Stop trying to sell us here. Yeah, I was just going to say
- 1:43:05yeah. All the money on the Packers
- 1:43:06coming from the Packers fan. Are you wearing a Packers hat,
- 1:43:08buddy? No.
- 1:43:11I'm not. I wish I was, but I'm not.
- 1:43:14Chris, what's the one thing like obviously getting going into the
- 1:43:18season, but what's one thing you look forward to as this season
- 1:43:21gets going? Because there's always, you
- 1:43:22know, different parts of the game that get certain people
- 1:43:25excited. Like what's once this season,
- 1:43:27once you get all of this out of the way, like what's the one
- 1:43:29thing you look forward to once the season gets going?
- 1:43:32Yeah, for me, because I'm so into like, the scouting
- 1:43:34community, it's seeing how the guys that I've been watching all
- 1:43:38offseason and putting like, draft grades on, right, these
- 1:43:41guys finally got drafted. I was just talking about Josh
- 1:43:43Simmons. In reality, it means nothing
- 1:43:45until they step on the field and start to show you that they're
- 1:43:48talented. So for me, every week I'm
- 1:43:50looking at the rookie players and seeing like what their
- 1:43:53performance looked like to see if it kind of like, matched my
- 1:43:55expectations or if I was totally wrong.
- 1:43:57Right. Isaac Tesla is another guy.
- 1:43:58Like I was pretty down on him. If he shows up and does really
- 1:44:01well, that's something I'm going to kind of check in on week over
- 1:44:04week. But like also besides that, you
- 1:44:07know, running a fantasy solution takes a lot of time and energy.
- 1:44:10I'm so excited to sit down with like Bobby and Ray and like 5
- 1:44:15dozen wings and like a case of beer and just watch some
- 1:44:18football, honestly. Right?
- 1:44:20Like, because when you do what I do and you're like on the
- 1:44:22technical side as well, you kind of don't get as much time to
- 1:44:26just enjoy the game of football as you'd like to.
- 1:44:29I am so. I was just going to ask, do you
- 1:44:30actually get time to just like be a fan?
- 1:44:34Other than like, obviously I get it's your job, your profession,
- 1:44:37something you love, but like to take a step back and just like,
- 1:44:41oh, let my brain shut off and just enjoy the game as the game
- 1:44:45is. Yeah, and I'll tell you what.
- 1:44:48So I was talking to Ray earlier. Ray and I both have, like, very
- 1:44:50young children at home. And I was like, Ray, even if we
- 1:44:53have to go sit in your house with the TV on mute so that we
- 1:44:57don't wake up the kids, it'd be great to just, like, watch a
- 1:45:00football game together, right? So Thursday we're going to be
- 1:45:03having, like, headphones and potentially listening to the
- 1:45:05game just so that we can hang out, eat some wings and, like,
- 1:45:07be together. Yes, We always, like, make an
- 1:45:09effort to do it. But yeah, all offseason, like,
- 1:45:12you don't get it. Like Bobby was asking me
- 1:45:14questions like, oh, like who on the Packers are you excited for?
- 1:45:16I'm like, dude, I haven't had a moment to look at that stuff
- 1:45:19because I'm so in the weeds. And making sure that the
- 1:45:21solution is working the way it should be working, making sure
- 1:45:25that all the players are in the system with the right positions.
- 1:45:27You wouldn't believe the questions we get 24/7.
- 1:45:29It's a lot of it's a lot of grind for sure.
- 1:45:31We are talking to Co founder of all 22 Fantasy Football, Chris
- 1:45:34Lombardi before we let you go man, because I know you're a
- 1:45:37busy guy and and by the way, I'm actually probably going to the
- 1:45:40Bee's house to watch game number one of the NFL season at the
- 1:45:45Beevit's house. So leave it to the beef and
- 1:45:49hopefully he's been bothering. By the way, give me the $150.00
- 1:45:52I shot. Him I will.
- 1:45:53He he gives me nothing but a headache when you get baby the
- 1:45:57fantasy. Anyways, before we let you go, I
- 1:46:00I got a good question for you. Your your friend Ray, all right,
- 1:46:05Has this love fetish for some particular player speed.
- 1:46:10You know what I'm getting to, right?
- 1:46:12What did we get into with the last time we had Ray on the
- 1:46:14show? What was the player that he told
- 1:46:16us? Well, slam dunk this year.
- 1:46:20Draft him, Saquon Barkley. OK, so my final question to you,
- 1:46:26who is your slam dunk fantasy guy this year?
- 1:46:32If you didn't do your fantasy, you're doing your fantasy draft
- 1:46:35tonight or you already did your fantasy, who do you think is the
- 1:46:38slam dunk fantasy guy this year? I'm.
- 1:46:43Going to give you, I'm going to give you a weird answer because
- 1:46:46you, you've been saying it like I'm like the weird guy,
- 1:46:48different thinker. I'm not going to go with like a
- 1:46:51guy you get in the first round or even like maybe the 1st 5
- 1:46:54rounds. But I really think Bonex is
- 1:46:57going to have an awesome year. He proved that he was way better
- 1:47:01than everybody thought he was last year, and I was.
- 1:47:05I was really skeptical of Sean Payton before last year saying
- 1:47:08maybe he was just good because he had Drew Brees, right?
- 1:47:11Maybe he's not an actual good head coach.
- 1:47:14Maybe he can't do it with somebody that's not a Hall of
- 1:47:16Famer. But I'll tell you what, man,
- 1:47:18like what they did last year together, those two guys, Sean
- 1:47:21Payton and Bo Nicks was pretty special.
- 1:47:24And they add some really nice talent in running back RJ
- 1:47:28Harvey. They add Evan Ingram at tight
- 1:47:31end. So you start to give him, they
- 1:47:32call it the Joker position. Guys that can move around and
- 1:47:35play kind of all over the place for that offense.
- 1:47:38What if Bo Nicks ends up being like at least like a top five QB
- 1:47:43in the NFL and you got him in round 10?
- 1:47:46Like, to me, that's like a really exciting guy that I just
- 1:47:49don't think people are really talking about South, say Kwan,
- 1:47:52it's a very easy answer. Ray went to Penn State.
- 1:47:55He's going to give you that answer every single time.
- 1:47:57I'm going to go a little off the off the deep end and go with Bo
- 1:48:00Nicks here. And by the way, I, I said, what
- 1:48:03was it when he was drafted that Bo Nicks was going to be a star
- 1:48:07in this league? I said it.
- 1:48:09I, I really believed it. I thought it fit.
- 1:48:11I watched his documentary on YouTube and he looks like a
- 1:48:15straightforward, kind guy. He's, he's very, his family is
- 1:48:19very dedicated to his growth as a player and as a, as a human
- 1:48:23being. And his parents were so
- 1:48:25dedicated to his growth as a young kid, not only playing
- 1:48:28sports, but his his schooling and and really what he's become
- 1:48:33as a man, as a professional football player.
- 1:48:35So it's a really cool story documentary.
- 1:48:37I got to find out what the name of the documentary is, but it's
- 1:48:39like a eight part, seven part thing.
- 1:48:41You got a chance all the way to when he was drafted as he was
- 1:48:45drafted #16 I think it was #12 #12 it was the 6th quarterback
- 1:48:49taken though. Yes #12 did.
- 1:48:52You check that out. To the the one and only Broncos,
- 1:48:55but we really appreciate the time buddy and.
- 1:48:58Yeah, yeah, for sure. Let's.

- 1:49:03around or something and you can help me out.
- 1:49:05You can smack them together like like, you know, like he ratted.
- 1:49:08He ratted you out last time and said you were too busy for us.
- 1:49:11Yes, he. Did it never happened?
- 1:49:13I would never be too busy for you guys.
- 1:49:15He actually said you were driving in New York somewhere.
- 1:49:17Yeah. It's probably true.
- 1:49:19I was probably in the city for work that day, but like I said
- 1:49:22guys, I'm in the city sometimes. Love to get a drink with you
- 1:49:24guys sometime after work. We should definitely do that.

- 1:49:49Green Bay Packers fan Chris Lombardi.
- 1:49:52No, he's not related to Vince Lombardi.
- 1:49:54OK, so I, I, I don't know why anybody would think that, but
- 1:49:57hey, you know, he has the, he does have the Lombardi last
- 1:50:00name, but Chris is a sensational person.
- 1:50:03I, I love Ray. I, I just like building them up
- 1:50:07and having them attack each other because they're best
- 1:50:09friends and, and they both do all 22.
- 1:50:12So I, by the way, we are bringing back Save Your Tears.
- 1:50:20Mom, what's one thing? That you can't talk to me about
- 1:50:24my. Sexual fantasies.
- 1:50:27It. Is not ideal, but if it's what
- 1:50:30means it is not ideal. But if it's just not ideal.
- 1:50:32But if it is, what means? You can't treble stamp a double
- 1:50:35stamp. You can't treble stamp a double
- 1:50:37stamp Lord. You can't treble stamp a double
- 1:50:38stamp Lord. You guys, now it's time for save
- 1:50:44your tears. Everyone, I want to pull jobless
- 1:50:49panties down. I love this segment.
- 1:50:53Introduced with that drop now. Yeah, right, we are backwards.
- 1:50:59Save your tears guys. Everyone's favorite tier based
- 1:51:03fantasy game. It's been.
- 1:51:05Away since the end of basketball season.
- 1:51:07NFL season is back. I pick 3 football games and
- 1:51:12players from it. You have $15 of salary cap.
- 1:51:15The dreaded salary cap. I farted.
- 1:51:18Money to make your picks, guys. Here we go.
- 1:51:23I'm going to read them off right here for you as you decide on
- 1:51:28your guys. Suck.
- 1:51:29My indo back. We have the one and only Jaden
- 1:51:34Daniels, last year's Rookie of the Year at $5, followed by
- 1:51:37Jalen Hurts, Zach Prescott because we picked the Eagles and
- 1:51:41Cowboys game tomorrow night. We picked the Giants and
- 1:51:45Commanders game as well as 1:00 on Sunday and a four o'clock
- 1:51:49game. We took the Texans, and who do
- 1:51:53they have? The Rams, who are they playing?
- 1:51:54And the Rams in that game. So those are the three games.
- 1:51:58And we got Hertz, Prescott, CJ Stroud and Russell Wilson for a
- 1:52:02dollar at running back. Of course, Saquon Barkley is
- 1:52:05sitting there at $5, followed by Karen Williams, Tyrone Tracy of
- 1:52:12the Giants, Nick Chubb and Javonte Williams is the starting
- 1:52:15running back allegedly for the Cowboys.
- 1:52:18At receiver number one, we have CD Lamb Puka Nakua at 4,
- 1:52:23Neighbors at 3, Terry Mclaurin down to 2 and Debo Samuel for
- 1:52:28$1.00. Some good values here at
- 1:52:30receiver one. Again, you have to pick them
- 1:52:32from the same column. At the second column, we have
- 1:52:34Nico Collins, A.J. Brown for four, Devonta Adams at
- 1:52:383, George Pickens for two and Devonta Smith for a buck at
- 1:52:43tight end, Dallas Goddard, Jake Ferguson, Zach Ertz Dalton
- 1:52:47Schultz and Penn State legends Theo Johnson for the Giants at a
- 1:52:53dollar. So is how this works.
- 1:52:56We're going to let you guys pick your teams from this board right
- 1:53:02here, right now. So who wants to go first, boys?
- 1:53:06All right. Speedy.
- 1:53:07All right, so I'm going to go with I'm going to go with DAC to
- 1:53:09start. I think he's going to get a lot
- 1:53:11of passing yards are going to have to throw a lot with that,
- 1:53:13with the way that offense is structured.
- 1:53:15I like Kyron Williams, so that's seven.
- 1:53:17I'll go with Puka Nakua, give me 11.
- 1:53:21I love Devante Smith at a $1.00 value.
- 1:53:23That's a crazy good and leaves me with three left, so I'll take
- 1:53:26Zacker. All right.
- 1:53:29So wide receiver two, you have Devante Smith.
- 1:53:34Wide receiver 1, you had Collins.
- 1:53:36Is that right? No, I had puka.
- 1:53:39I had puka. Puka, puka.
- 1:53:41I knew it was a weird short name.
- 1:53:42Yeah, I. Had Kyron Williams and Doc
- 1:53:44Prescott. And ertz Ertz.
- 1:53:47And Smith? Yeah.
- 1:53:49OK, so here is your squad. Let's put it up there.
- 1:53:55Pull this one down. Oh, Nathan, you're here.
- 1:53:58Excellent. We'll put you in.
- 1:54:00Nath, you can play. All right, So Dak, Karen
- 1:54:03Williams, Puka Devanta and Zach Ertz All right.
- 1:54:06I know. Where I'm going, I'm going to go
- 1:54:07CJ Shroud for $2.00, then I'm going to go Sequan Barkley, then
- 1:54:15I'm going I'm going to go Puka, Devante Smith and then ertz.
- 1:54:26So you copied speedy except for the first two CJ.
- 1:54:30Stroud. So what?
- 1:54:31You don't. No, he he went, he went Saquon
- 1:54:35instead of Kyrie. Yeah, the first two, first 2
- 1:54:37running back, but you kept the other three.
- 1:54:39OK, so there it is. Remove, add.
- 1:54:42There you go. CJ Stroud, Barkley, Puka
- 1:54:45Devanta, and. Ertz.
- 1:54:47Nick Mania, what do you got for us?
- 1:54:50What's up, guys? I'm going to go Dak Prescott.
- 1:54:53I think with Dak, he has no excuses Now he's he's got George
- 1:54:57Pickens with him and obviously CD Lamb and the running game and
- 1:55:01obviously Jake Ferguson. I can start taking the next
- 1:55:03step. So no excuse for him.
- 1:55:05I got Dak Prescott my running back.
- 1:55:08I got I'm going to go Tyrone Tracy.
- 1:55:12I think. I think he's going to take a big
- 1:55:15leap here for the Giants get he's going to get a lot of snaps
- 1:55:19on the off and on the running game.
- 1:55:20So I I'm going with Tyler and Tracy by receiver, I'm going to
- 1:55:24go, go Terry Mclaurin. I think with now with the
- 1:55:29contract extension, I think he's going to obviously show he's
- 1:55:34going to have a big season with Washington, with Jane and
- 1:55:36Daniel. So I'm going with Terry Mclaurin
- 1:55:39and then I'm going to go let's see here.
- 1:55:42I'm going to go. I'm going to go Zach or no, hold
- 1:55:49on, I want to go. This is tough, OK, I'm going to
- 1:55:55go Dalton Schultz. I'm going to go Dalton Schultz.
- 1:55:57I think I think I can see him having a big year with CJ
- 1:56:00Stroud, CJ Stroudy again. So I'm going to go Dalton
- 1:56:04Schultz and I think that's it, right?
- 1:56:06Or I got one more it. Leaves you 5.
- 1:56:07You got Nico Collins if you want.
- 1:56:09Nico Collins Or you could save money and waste a dollar or two
- 1:56:13on the other guys. Who do you want?
- 1:56:16OK. We're not doing rollover like
- 1:56:18minutes used to be. We could throw out some minutes.
- 1:56:20I'm going to go Devo Samuel. You're going to spend what?
- 1:56:24No it doesn't. First off.
- 1:56:25What are you talking about? I'm trying to.
- 1:56:27Save $4. Nathan, are you?
- 1:56:29Are you out of your mind right now?
- 1:56:31Hold on, Nathan. The second wide receiver column
- 1:56:35you have $5 say you should take the guy worth $5.00, but you
- 1:56:41don't. Have to.
- 1:56:42You can't. Take a guy for $1.00 from the
- 1:56:44other column. Job.
- 1:56:45I like my swim cocktails. I'm taking Niko column.
- 1:56:48Nathan, you can't betray your your first round pick on your
- 1:56:50auto draft. Team way to way to figure that
- 1:56:53one out for good job. By you, Nathan.
- 1:56:55All right, here it is Team Nith, Dak, Tracy, Mclaurin, Niko and
- 1:57:02Schultzy. All right, I guess I'll go on
- 1:57:06this one. So I, I actually haven't put any
- 1:57:08thought into it other than making it.
- 1:57:11Who do I know I want? Well, I know I don't want guys
- 1:57:13on the Cowboys because I think they're gonna get their asses
- 1:57:16kicked. So I'm going to go with Jalen
- 1:57:19Hurts at QB. I'm going to take that Rams
- 1:57:28defense might do really shut down Chubb.
- 1:57:31I'm going to I'm going to go with Tracy.
- 1:57:33I think he's going to get good fantasy points.
- 1:57:36So now I'm at 7:00, I'm going to go into first receiver.
- 1:57:40I'm going to spend 3 bucks on Malik.
- 1:57:42Neighbors going Giants heavy. I'm sure you're surprised by
- 1:57:47that. So surprised 5 bucks left.
- 1:57:51I think the tight ends all kind of suck.
- 1:57:53I'm going to go with, well, no one's taken Goddard and then
- 1:58:00Pickens. No, I don't want Pickens.
- 1:58:02Devante Adams is interesting. All right, So I'm going to spend
- 1:58:08my last $5. Going to have a really good day
- 1:58:11against the. I think I'm going to spend it on
- 1:58:14Devante Adams and Dalton Schultz.
- 1:58:18All right, so there's my team, Adams and Schultzy, which is a
- 1:58:25great hockey nickname. Not so much tight end I guess.
- 1:58:29Cowboys. Where it is.
- 1:58:31Well, he was good with them for one year.
- 1:58:34I got Sis Schultz over here, Adams Neighbors, Tracy and
- 1:58:38Hertz, Donut at QB, Jabba. I'm going Stroud for 2 bucks,
- 1:58:48I'm going Kyron Williams for 4 bucks.
- 1:58:52I'm going Malik Neighbors. So that's puts me at 9:00.
- 1:59:00Yeah, the tight ends are kind of just 9.
- 1:59:05So I'm going to get, you know what I'm going to go with?
- 1:59:08I'm going to go. God, I love the Devonta Smith
- 1:59:12for a dollar, but Nah, that's not worth the money.
- 1:59:16I am going to go, you know what, I'll go.
- 1:59:17Nico Collins and Theo Johnson. Theo, they say he's going to
- 1:59:23play. A lot of people think he's a
- 1:59:24sleeper this year. We'll see what happens.
- 1:59:27I'm hoping for it, that's for sure.
- 1:59:29All right, there it is. Stroud, Williams, neighbors
- 1:59:32Collins and Theo up to Errol. What you got, man?
- 1:59:37All right, Jalen Hurts, Kyron Williams.
- 1:59:40I'll go. Terry Mclaurin, Devante Adams,
- 1:59:45Dalton Schultz, Lauren Adams and Schultz, and let's just show it
- 1:59:53to you again. We'll go over this on on
- 1:59:56Monday's episode and award the winner.
- 1:59:59Again. It's called Save your tears
- 2:00:01because you can't complain about it.
- 2:00:03You got to save your tears. And in fact, when you win, every
- 2:00:07other person has to give you at least a 51% sincere, long winded
- 2:00:12compliment. So those will take place on
- 2:00:15Monday. All right, ladies and gentlemen,
- 2:00:17our next segment, Speedies 6 Pack of the Week.
- 2:00:22Let's have a sixer. Hey, who wants to play Drink the
- 2:00:25Beer? It's time for the Speedy 6 pack
- 2:00:28of the week. Fish, where's panties?
- 2:00:33So yeah, this is simply just the game pics this week.
- 2:00:35There's a lot of interesting matchups.
- 2:00:37More later in the week for week number.
- 2:00:39One my rear end is burning. So we'll start with the NFC.
- 2:00:44So again, fish right here. Speedy.
- 2:00:47So just to let everyone know this what we're going to do now,
- 2:00:50Jabba and Errol, we're going to speed is going to make six
- 2:00:54different football picks each week and we're going to keep a
- 2:00:57record speedy and actually have a standings for the year off of
- 2:01:01the six game speedy picks for the NFL season.
- 2:01:05Speedy 6 pack. He's not here you go.
- 2:01:07He's not very good at this. I'm just telling, you know.
- 2:01:10Droba. Well, I'm curious to see Errol.
- 2:01:13You're great at, you know, the savior tears, you know, FedEx
- 2:01:17Cup standings, even though you don't win all that often.
- 2:01:20They get that the second places, the third places.
- 2:01:22You do a great job with that. If by the way, we got to see by
- 2:01:25the way, we got to instead of I know first place, come on, says
- 2:01:29points. We should see what the points
- 2:01:31section. Second, third place.
- 2:01:33There should be a points thing, a system by the well in the NFL,
- 2:01:36we can do it because everyone, you know, it's just one game a
- 2:01:39week. So it'll be easier to do them
- 2:01:40that with basketball. So maybe we will do that.
- 2:01:43All right, Speedy, what's the first game?
- 2:01:44All right. We'll start with the NFC West
- 2:01:45battle. The 49ers are at the Seahawks in
- 2:01:48Seattle. Four O 5 start time game.
- 2:01:50A lot of new faces in both, both those places for the 49ers and
- 2:01:54the Seahawks. I'm going to take the 49ers at a
- 2:01:57very tight, low scoring game. I'm going to say 49ers win like
- 2:02:002017. So now Errol, agree or disagree?
- 2:02:08Disagree. I, I think Seattle's going to
- 2:02:11win the game and it's, it's in Seattle, right?
- 2:02:13Oh, I, I think it, the 12th man is going to be very, very loud.
- 2:02:16I know it's Sam Donald's first game, but if you look at San
- 2:02:20Francisco in Seattle, they don't play very well there.
- 2:02:24And I just think Seattle, their coaching, their defense, their
- 2:02:27offensive line, I think, I, I do believe San Francisco's defense
- 2:02:31is going to be a lead. I don't know offensively how
- 2:02:33they're going to put off the points.
- 2:02:35I think Seattle's going to be able to put up the points.
- 2:02:37I think Seattle wins by three by a field goal.
- 2:02:40So I'm going Seattle. OK.
- 2:02:44All right, Gabba, I'm rolling with Speedy on this one.
- 2:02:49Yeah, for all, I mean, for all the reason I think obviously it
- 2:02:51is hostile going into that environment.
- 2:02:53But I think Darnold's first game and then I think, you know,
- 2:02:57Pretty coming out with the contract is going to, if they
- 2:03:00can put points on the board, I think he's got something to
- 2:03:02prove that he's not a fluke. So defensively, I think they can
- 2:03:05stop it. But yeah, I think they win.
- 2:03:07I think they win by 6 all right and I am going to take Seattle
- 2:03:12on this one. I think that this is going to be
- 2:03:14the one of the more underrated teams going into the season.
- 2:03:17I think their coach is good. I wonder I want to see him with
- 2:03:20his guys this year before we write them off.
- 2:03:23I I think Darnell might surprise some people after that
- 2:03:26disappointment in the playoffs. What's the next game Speedy, by
- 2:03:28the way, I think Cooper Cup is going to have a big day.
- 2:03:31So I I know a lot of people don't trust Cooper cup.
- 2:03:33I think he's going to be a lot better than people think this
- 2:03:35year. So just so you know.
- 2:03:37All right, next one we'll go to the double revenge game, the
- 2:03:39only one O clock game. I'm picking the Steelers and The
- 2:03:41Jets. I have The Jets winning this
- 2:03:43game. I think they went in a tight
- 2:03:44defensive duel by 6. I'm going to go with the
- 2:03:49Steelers in this game. I, I, I don't know if I trust
- 2:03:52The Jets in game number one with Aaron Glenn.
- 2:03:54I there's a lot of pressure on The Jets.
- 2:03:56I, I do believe that The Jets will keep it close, but
- 2:04:00something tells me The Jets are going to screw something up in
- 2:04:02this game. I think The Jets lose.
- 2:04:04I think it'll be very, very close throughout the day.
- 2:04:06It's not an offensive game. This is going to be a very low
- 2:04:08scoring game, defense to defense.
- 2:04:11I think The Jets lose like 1614 or something of 1613.
- 2:04:15That's where I think the score is going to be.
- 2:04:19Speedy, Where's the game at? Jets are home.
- 2:04:23They're home. Oh, yeah, I'm going with The
- 2:04:25Jets. I think Glenn coming in, I
- 2:04:27think, you know, obviously everybody on his side is a
- 2:04:30player coming in, right situation.
- 2:04:34I'm kind of being hypocritical because I said I wanted Rogers
- 2:04:37to kind of prove everybody wrong, but whatever, yeah, I'm
- 2:04:40going to go Jets. I'm going to go Jets.
- 2:04:43By a touchdown. I am also going to take The Jets
- 2:04:49on this one. I I'm a little concerned about
- 2:04:50Vera Tucker, but at the same time, Cam Hayward doesn't
- 2:04:53practice all preseason. He's been holding out.
- 2:04:55Even if he plays, he's not going to get a full regiment of snaps.
- 2:04:57So I, I think The Jets are going to be able to run the ball and I
- 2:05:00think they're going to be able to win this game at home,
- 2:05:01probably by a score as well next game.
- 2:05:04Speedy. All right, the Houston Texans
- 2:05:06and the LA Rams, a lot of them were in savior tears.
- 2:05:08I have the Rams winning this one.
- 2:05:09I think it will be actually a bigger gap.
- 2:05:11I think Houston still trying to figure a lot of things out,
- 2:05:13especially with that offensive line.
- 2:05:14I'm in the Rams and I think it's by double digits.
- 2:05:17I think the game's going to be very, very close.
- 2:05:19I, I, I like the Rams issue. Everybody knows how much I, I
- 2:05:22like what this team has put together in the offseason.
- 2:05:25Their defense is going to be elite.
- 2:05:26And I, they're very young and they're going to be able to run
- 2:05:29the ball. I, I, I think Williams is going
- 2:05:31to be explosive. And Devante Adams on the other
- 2:05:35side of Buka Nakua. Oh, explosive.
- 2:05:37I think they win by 7 like the Rams because Mcveigh's the
- 2:05:44Beyoncé girlfriend. Whatever is hot.
- 2:05:46Yes, she is. Actually, why?
- 2:05:48And they they married. Is it well what a good for him,
- 2:05:51whatever it is. Yeah, No, I I think they they
- 2:05:55have they have the weapons to do it.
- 2:05:59And I'm a fan of McVeigh. So I got them I got them winning
- 2:06:02by 10. I I really like the Texans.
- 2:06:06I'm not going to sleep on them this year.
- 2:06:08I I just think the Rams are going to be a little too good
- 2:06:11this week while Stafford's healthy.
- 2:06:14Stafford's health, I know I stayed way away from him.
- 2:06:18Fantasy drafts. I don't think that the back is
- 2:06:21going to hold up another year. I think we're going to see
- 2:06:23Stetson Bennett this year. Guys.
- 2:06:25I don't trust Jimmy G either. But hey, isn't he like?
- 2:06:2730. 2. Well, I'm the same age as Jimmy
- 2:06:29G Probably. They could hang out in Vegas in
- 2:06:32the offseason together. But next?
- 2:06:35So that's it. Next game, speedy.
- 2:06:37All right, we'll go to the NFC North battle, the Lions and the
- 2:06:39Packers. Obviously Mike Parsons going
- 2:06:41over there. I'm going to take the Packers.
- 2:06:43I think this is a higher scoring game though, even with Parsons
- 2:06:45being there, I think there will be a little bit of a rust.
- 2:06:47Green Bay wins a tight, high scoring game, I'll say by 6.
- 2:06:50Is it in Green Bay? In Green Bay.
- 2:06:52Yeah, I, I, it's hard to beat Green Bay and Green Bay, I think
- 2:06:55Mike is going to have at least 1 1/2 sacks in this game, his
- 2:06:59first home game. I, I love Jordan love.
- 2:07:01I really, really love Jordan love.
- 2:07:03I think he's going to have a great year.
- 2:07:04He's going to be up for an MVPI. Really do think he's going to
- 2:07:07have that kind of season. The weapons that he has, Matthew
- 2:07:09Golden and and Reed and Watson, I mean explosive.
- 2:07:13And by the way, they do have Jacobs.
- 2:07:14So I, I love, I live, I love the Packers.
- 2:07:18Give me the Packers. They win by three.
- 2:07:23Oh, I'm going to go. I I think Jordan Love doesn't
- 2:07:27get in get enough love, no pun intended.
- 2:07:29I think he's he's really, really good and he's going to have a
- 2:07:31great year. You had him by 10.
- 2:07:34I'm going to I'm going to I'm going to go Packers by 7.
- 2:07:39And I really like the Packers in this game as well.
- 2:07:43I think Parsons is going to give him a little too much new
- 2:07:46coaches at the coordinator positions.
- 2:07:48I think it's going to be a little too much Week 1.
- 2:07:50So I'm going to go by probably I'm going to say 10 points.
- 2:07:52I think it's going to be a little bit more than a score,
- 2:07:54but close most of the game. Speedy.
- 2:07:56Let's kind of get a little a little bit quick where our guest
- 2:07:58is in. So let's get.
- 2:07:59Through the rest. So Monday Night Football, the
- 2:08:00Vikings and the Bears. I got Chicago by 6.
- 2:08:03I got Minnesota in this game. I think McCarthy is going to
- 2:08:06have a great game. Something tells me McCarthy is
- 2:08:09going to be a lot better than people think he's going to be.
- 2:08:11I have McCarthy in Minnesota and Justin Jefferson, 2 touchdowns,
- 2:08:17win by 7. I got Vikings by 10.
- 2:08:23I think we're going to see a very different Bears team this
- 2:08:26year. I think this game is going to be
- 2:08:28in the favor of the Bears and they're going to shock
- 2:08:30everybody. I'm going to say the Bears win
- 2:08:31by it's called 4 points. All right, last one Sunday Night
- 2:08:34Football, the Ravens at the Bills.
- 2:08:36I'm going to take the Ravens in this one high scoring game.
- 2:08:38I'll say Ravens by 4. And where is it?
- 2:08:41In Buffalo. Buffalo, This is the best game
- 2:08:46of the week. I'm going to go Buffalo.
- 2:08:49I'm just going to take Buffalo. Josh Allen in front of the fans.
- 2:08:52Hard Knocks. Give me the Buffalo Bills.
- 2:08:55Buy a field goal. I got Josh Allen in the Bills.
- 2:09:00Plus at least three guys going through a burning table for
- 2:09:05pregame. Give me Bills by a touchdown.
- 2:09:09I see this coming down to whoever has the ball last.
- 2:09:11This is going to be an awesome game, a great way to start the
- 2:09:15season with a match up like this.
- 2:09:17I I think I'll just go with Buffalo at home.
- 2:09:19I think they'll get they'll end up winning that pulling this one
- 2:09:21out, but it's going to be an awesome game and really probably
- 2:09:24to win. You wish again.
- 2:09:25I wish that two guys could win that game, but only one can.
- 2:09:28All right, speedy, that's the six pack for week 1.
- 2:09:32I will say this, Josh Allen is going to want to prove himself
- 2:09:36of winning that MVP because a lot of people thought it was
- 2:09:38Lamar Jacksons and was stolen from him.
- 2:09:41Anyways, let's go to a sports minute.
- 2:09:43When we come back, our very special guest, we will be
- 2:09:45talking to former Falcons, Giants and Bengals linebacker
- 2:09:48Michael Boley. And ladies and gentlemen, Super
- 2:09:51Bowl winning linebacker Michael Boley.
- 2:09:54But first, our sports minute with the fish or the fisherman
- 2:09:57himself. This is the Jabba and the Mouth
- 2:10:02Sportsman ads. All right guys, another
- 2:10:06sportsman here with Aaron Fishman.
- 2:10:08Got a few stories for you before we get into baseball this
- 2:10:10evening. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers in
- 2:10:13right tackle Luke Gedicki reached a four year, $90,000,000
- 2:10:16extension on Tuesday, which will keep the tackle in Tampa for the
- 2:10:19rest of the decade $50 million is guaranteed in the deal,
- 2:10:23according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.
- 2:10:24Gedicki, who is going to his fourth NFL season, has ranked in
- 2:10:27the top 30 in the NFL at the tackle position the last two
- 2:10:30years, according to PFF. Despite not being named Pro
- 2:10:33Bowler since Gedicki was a second round pick, he was to be
- 2:10:36a free agent before signing the deal to stay with the Bucks.
- 2:10:39Tampa will now have keep All Pro Tristan Werfs, who was extended
- 2:10:42last year, on the left and get a key on the right of Baker
- 2:10:46Mayfield for the rest of the 20 twenties.
- 2:10:49Dodgers pitcher Slash DH Shohei Otani hit his 100th home run
- 2:10:53with the Dodgers on Tuesday night with authority.
- 2:10:56The home run, Otani's 46th of the year, left the two way stars
- 2:11:00batted 120 miles an hour, the second hardest hit Homer in the
- 2:11:03league this season. In only Otani's 294th game with
- 2:11:07the Dodgers, he reached a mark which is the fastest by far of
- 2:11:10any Dodger in history, breaking Gary Sheffield's record of 399
- 2:11:14games by 105. Despite Otani's continued
- 2:11:18dominance at the plate, the Dodgers fell to the lowly
- 2:11:20Pirates and only have a 2 1/2 game lead over the Padres for
- 2:11:23the NL W Division race. Otani has been inconsistent for
- 2:11:27his standards on the mound as he has tried to get back to the
- 2:11:29form. They got him some Cy Young votes
- 2:11:31back when he was on the Angels in the second-half of the
- 2:11:33season. This year, Otani, who is the
- 2:11:36overwhelming front runner for NL MVP yet again this season, will
- 2:11:40look to regain his form on the mound to a company is hitting as
- 2:11:43the Dodgers go for the first back-to-back titles since the
- 2:11:46Yankees 3 peat in 9899 and 2000. Speaking of the Yankees of
- 2:11:52yesteryear, say it ain't so was the colorful saying in the
- 2:11:55documentary title of the great Yankees catcher Yogi Berra.
- 2:11:59And if he were still here, that's what he'd be saying to
- 2:12:01the news that the Red Zone Channel will now have
- 2:12:03commercials. Yes, the newly purchased ESPN
- 2:12:06product will soon will be still be hosted by Scott Hanson, but
- 2:12:10he can no longer say 7 hours of commercial free football starts
- 2:12:14now at 1:00 PM ever again. Hanson went on the Pat McAfee
- 2:12:18Show and said the good old days are now over and there will be
- 2:12:20commercials in some shape or form going forwards.
- 2:12:23The business folks handle the business and I have no say over
- 2:12:26different elements that could or could not be in the show.
- 2:12:29Hanson said. The good old days are gone and
- 2:12:31before we even had a chance to say goodbye.
- 2:12:33Let's hope that the Worldwide Leader doesn't ruin every
- 2:12:36football fans favorite way to spend their Sundays.
- 2:12:40All right, in action right now in baseball, it's going to the
- 2:12:43bottom of the sixth in Houston. The Yankees are up 4 to one on
- 2:12:46the Astros going into that. We're in the bottom of the ninth
- 2:12:48right now. The Blue Jays trying to close
- 2:12:50out the Reds. It's 13 to 9, bottom 8.
- 2:12:53The Rays all over the Mariners, 9 to 4, top 8, all tied in
- 2:12:56Kansas City between the Angels and Royals.
- 2:12:58Also bottom 8 right now, Braves are up five, one on the Cubs.
- 2:13:02Bottom 7 Twins are actually going into the top of the
- 2:13:04eighth. Now the Twins are up 3 to one on
- 2:13:06the White Sox in Minnesota. Brewers 6, Phillies 3 in the
- 2:13:09bottom of the seventh, Cardinals 3, Athletics one.
- 2:13:11Top 841 Giants, Rockies going into the top of the fifth over
- 2:13:14there in Colorado. And everything else is finished.

- 2:13:19The Tigers beat the Mets 62, Diamondbacks shot the Rangers 2,
- 2:13:22nothing. Orioles over the Padres 7 to 5.

- 2:16:05guys for having me all man. Well, first of all, I, I want to
- 2:16:09know what you're doing. But now that you're away from
- 2:16:12obviously sports, are you working in the health field?
- 2:16:16I do some work. My mom works here at the
- 2:16:18hospital, so I got to do some work over here.
- 2:16:20I got it because, you know, I, when I, when I see the kind of
- 2:16:23stuff that you're wearing, it only tells me hospital, it tells
- 2:16:26me something in the whole field because scrubs.
- 2:16:30I, that's hospital. I, I work in the, the hospital
- 2:16:34field here and there. So I know a little bit about
- 2:16:36that. You will never see me wear a
- 2:16:38scrub because whenever I wear scrubs, they always ask me, are
- 2:16:42you a nurse? No, my girlfriend's a nurse.
- 2:16:44Why the hell I would be wearing scrubs?
- 2:16:46But nevertheless, you wear them every day.
- 2:16:48You are a scrub. You know what Kiss.
- 2:16:49My butt goba ass licker. Anyways, Michael, we're very
- 2:16:58happy to have you on. I obviously a lot of Giant fans
- 2:17:01love you on this show. Speedy's a Giant fan, Poops is a
- 2:17:04Giant fan. And our executive producer, he's
- 2:17:07sitting backstage, Mr. Aaron Fish, Fishman, very excited to
- 2:17:11have you on because you did win a Super Bowl with the New York
- 2:17:13Giants. We'll get into that.
- 2:17:14But first, what have you been doing doing since you've left
- 2:17:18the NFL? How what have you?
- 2:17:20Have you been working with organizations?
- 2:17:22What have you been doing? Man I've did a little bit of
- 2:17:25everything since since I retired.
- 2:17:28Mostly time with the kids lately.
- 2:17:34I mean, I've, my twins are 7, so they're busy non-stop during the
- 2:17:38weeks with gymnastics and tumbling and cheerleading.
- 2:17:41And my second oldest is just started his senior season at the
- 2:17:48University of Virginia playing, playing live tackle.
- 2:17:52He's playing, playing pretty well.
- 2:17:53So, you know, spend a lot of time making sure, you know, I
- 2:17:56keep an eye on him and, you know, making sure he's, he's
- 2:17:59doing good things both on and off the field.
- 2:18:01Well, offensive tackle, that means this kids probably like
- 2:18:046465, maybe even bigger than that.
- 2:18:06How big is your son? He's about, he's almost 66, just
- 2:18:13just under 66. He's about 3/15, 3:20-ish.
- 2:18:17Yeah. Big kid.
- 2:18:19Oh man, I can't wait to see him in the NFL like Daddy Dukes so.
- 2:18:23Hopefully one day. All right, so let's get into
- 2:18:26that 2011 season. I know Giant fans love the sound
- 2:18:30of Super Bowls and Super Bowl championships.
- 2:18:33What was it like playing for A-Team?
- 2:18:36That was very route well-rounded.
- 2:18:39Yeah. JPP.
- 2:18:40Yeah. Justin Tuck, you had an
- 2:18:42unbelievable OC human you are. What?
- 2:18:44What kind of team was that? Super Bowl champion New York
- 2:18:47Giants team. Man, like you said, it was a
- 2:18:51great all around team. You know it.
- 2:18:53It's crazy to think back to like how long it took us in the year
- 2:18:58to, to get everything rolling that year, because I mean, we
- 2:19:02had the pretty much the whole team throughout the same year,
- 2:19:05throughout that whole year. I mean, we, you know, we had a
- 2:19:07few Dings here and there with, you know, some players in and
- 2:19:10out of the lineup, but for the most part, the same team.
- 2:19:13And it's just, you know, it just took us that one game, you know,
- 2:19:16that game against The Jets for us to really just thank you, hop
- 2:19:19on that wave and, and, and ride it out to the rest of the rest
- 2:19:23of that season. You know, I was at that game.
- 2:19:25It was, and I'll never forget, it was Christmas Eve.
- 2:19:28I was at that game. I got a chance to enjoy, by the
- 2:19:31way, just so you know that after the game, after The Jets lost
- 2:19:34that game and I remember that was the that was the, the growth
- 2:19:39of Victor Cruz. If I, if I, I don't, I didn't
- 2:19:42forget, but I, I got a chance to see my friend piss off somebody
- 2:19:46because he ran into the car and then they chased us all the way
- 2:19:48through the city when we when we had to park our car next to the
- 2:19:52tree and hide because these six guys were looking for us because
- 2:19:55my friend was absolutely drunk. But that's a whole nother story.
- 2:19:58We were very upset. But yeah, I remember that
- 2:20:01season. It really made me sick to my
- 2:20:03stomach. And I remember it was Smith that
- 2:20:06missed the tackle against Victor Cruz and he ran it in.
- 2:20:09Eli Manning did not have his best game in the first half, but
- 2:20:12in the second-half, Eli Manning took over and your defense took
- 2:20:16over in the second-half. Made me sick to my stomach, just
- 2:20:18so you know. I mean, you know, we love to,
- 2:20:22you know, love to make people happy.
- 2:20:24I figured it. Made me happy because I had AI
- 2:20:26had a that year, because that year was the Dream Team Eagles
- 2:20:29allegedly that was going to happen.
- 2:20:30So I had a couple of friends that were Eagles fans.
- 2:20:33Yeah, I had nightmares that year.
- 2:20:34Yeah, yeah, since you're a second tier Eagles fan, yes, I
- 2:20:37know you probably had that kind of thing too, but obviously that
- 2:20:39was supposed to be. Their big year.
- 2:20:41I still thought the Giants were good though.
- 2:20:42Like I thought they would make the playoffs, but they was like,
- 2:20:45oh, the Eagles are going to wait out, they're going to make the
- 2:20:46playoffs and then you guys beat the Giants.
- 2:20:48So that whole adversity in the regular season, like the O Seven
- 2:20:50team was like the postseason was the difficult one, but they made
- 2:20:53the playoff season. You guys had to overcome a lot
- 2:20:54of it in the regular season, especially with the linebacking
- 2:20:56corps. What was that defense like
- 2:20:57between the defensive line and all those linebackers like you
- 2:21:00and Chase Blackburn coming in? All these random guys that
- 2:21:03really played well. You know, I tell, I tell.
- 2:21:07I've been telling people over the years like having AD line
- 2:21:09like that, like it's it. It makes life a lot easier in
- 2:21:14the backyard, like you say. You mentioned JPP, Tuck, OC
- 2:21:21Kiwi, Chris Canton was on that line.
- 2:21:25Rocky Bernard, man, you know, like if you look at the depth
- 2:21:31that we had, like you can just throw any bunch of guys out
- 2:21:34there. They're going to get the job
- 2:21:35done. They're going to get pressure on
- 2:21:36a quarterback. And you know, Speaking of Chase,
- 2:21:40man, I love Chase. I love Chase to death.
- 2:21:44Chase was at home up until the week we played Green Bay that
- 2:21:47year. And I remember I pulled my
- 2:21:50hamstring. They brought Chase in and man,
- 2:21:53he, he picked up like he never left.
- 2:21:56He was like, dude, like, have you been here all season?
- 2:21:58Like, you know, he jumped right in the playbook.
- 2:22:00You know, they, they put him on the field and he was like, he
- 2:22:02never left. Obviously coming from the
- 2:22:04Falcons to New York, What people don't understand how different
- 2:22:08it is when you get to New York coming from somewhere else.
- 2:22:10What was that a big adjustment for you as far as like the media
- 2:22:14or like? Just like another day, that's
- 2:22:18all. Definitely.
- 2:22:19I mean, first and foremost, I spent the whole first part of my
- 2:22:22life in the South. Born and raised in Alabama,
- 2:22:25College in Mississippi being theirs.
- 2:22:27It's like, you know, I'm in the South, so I'm used to the South
- 2:22:31just in everything. And I get to New York and my mom
- 2:22:35has spent some time in, she was travel nursing when I was like
- 2:22:40in high school. She spent some time in Newark
- 2:22:43and a couple other places around the New York, New Jersey area.
- 2:22:46And so she had, she had been up that way before.
- 2:22:49And I remember one of my first weeks out there, I'm at the
- 2:22:51grocery store and it's like simple things.
- 2:22:52I'm like mom, I call my mom. Like I don't recognize any of
- 2:22:56these brands of bread, like what's good and but no, just as
- 2:23:03far as the organization. I mean, nothing bad about
- 2:23:06Atlanta. You know, Atlanta was great.
- 2:23:08I love, I love Mr. Blank. You know, he he's a great team
- 2:23:11owner. You know, he did a lot of good
- 2:23:12things with team down there. But it was just a different,
- 2:23:15different atmosphere coming to New York.
- 2:23:17Like you say, you mentioned the media man, like I remember in
- 2:23:20Atlanta, you know, yeah, you know, you play a game, you know,
- 2:23:23after the game or even after price, you might have one, maybe
- 2:23:27two people come by your locker want to talk to you.
- 2:23:30May you get to New York. And it's like at least 6 to 10
- 2:23:35people every time you're like, wow, like this is this is a much
- 2:23:39bigger media market than than what I was used to.
- 2:23:43So that it took, it took a little bit of getting used to
- 2:23:45because you know, like, like I said, you know, they weren't
- 2:23:47even coming after practice. And I wasn't used to like you
- 2:23:50normally you get a big crowd. It was normally after a game,
- 2:23:52not after practice. I want to get into the playoffs
- 2:23:55and how clutch. I mean, you got a chance to
- 2:23:58watch Eli Manning in 2007. Do it the way he did it against
- 2:24:02an undefeated Patriot team. But then go into the playoffs
- 2:24:06again and and go on a run and actually beat the Green Bay
- 2:24:10Packers, but didn't beat Brett Favre.
- 2:24:12Now he beat Aaron Rodgers in the same place in Green Bay.
- 2:24:16What what type of player, what kind of ice in the veins of Eli
- 2:24:21Manning that you can explain to us?
- 2:24:23What type of player is he in the locker?
- 2:24:25What type of player is he when you're playing in a big game on
- 2:24:28a football field in the absolute freezing called of Green Bay?
- 2:24:33Eli's not a rah, rah guy. Like you see a lot of these
- 2:24:36guys, you know, especially when games get really close and it's
- 2:24:40coming down that fourth quarter, they're, you know, they up and
- 2:24:44down the sideline, they're pumping their guys up.
- 2:24:47That was never Eli. Eli was just him.
- 2:24:49You know, it's funny because him and Peyton are completely
- 2:24:52opposites, but you know, you, you see, like the way he
- 2:24:57composes himself and like, he just, he's just him, you know,
- 2:25:00he attacked the field and it's like something happens.
- 2:25:03You know his, you know, you've seen the videos.
- 2:25:05His face just never changes, whether it's good or bad.
- 2:25:08He's just got that look on his face like, Oh yeah, you know, it
- 2:25:11happened. But that it doesn't make any
- 2:25:14sense because when I now I see him away from football, the guys
- 2:25:17in commercials, he's prancing and dancing around.
- 2:25:20He's doing commercials with Odell Beckham.
- 2:25:22He's he's playing practical jokes on people.
- 2:25:24Ex players him at Baker Mayfield.
- 2:25:27I see. Was he that type of player in
- 2:25:29the locker room? Would he play play practical
- 2:25:31jokes on you guys? All the time.
- 2:25:34My, my first, my O 9, my first year in New York, remember, I
- 2:25:39came out of a meeting, I get my phone out of my locker.
- 2:25:44It's in Japanese. So for him, like if you didn't,
- 2:25:47if you left your phone unlocked, he would go through and change
- 2:25:50your language. And luckily, luckily I had my
- 2:25:54iPad so I could just like, follow the steps of how to get
- 2:25:57my language changed back. And it's like, I'm looking
- 2:26:02around. They're like, oh, yeah, Eli did
- 2:26:04that. Yeah.
- 2:26:06He does stuff like that all the time.
- 2:26:07I'm like seriously, but it's like the it's like the subtle
- 2:26:11things like he, he played like a little practical jokes like that
- 2:26:13all the time. Yeah, it's funny.
- 2:26:15We actually a couple of years ago had Rich Soy Bird who was a
- 2:26:18guard on that team and he was saying like, oh, Eli's one of
- 2:26:20the funnier guys on the team. But I I always did, I always did
- 2:26:22the funnier stuff too. And he was like, I'm going
- 2:26:25through all. This stuff but.
- 2:26:26He was taking shots at Eli and stuff when he was on the show,
- 2:26:28like as a coach. Now it's kind of funny.
- 2:26:30We actually had a couple of them, too.
- 2:26:31Brandon Jacobs has been on our show.
- 2:26:32Prince Abukumar we interviewed at the Super Bowl.
- 2:26:35Justin Tuck. Justin Tuck We interviewed years
- 2:26:38ago at one Tom Coughlin's event, so I want to move on to Tom
- 2:26:40Coughlin like he was. Obviously as a Giant fan, my
- 2:26:43favorite coach was so annoying when they got rid of him and the
- 2:26:45Giants have not been the same since then.
- 2:26:47Annoying. Upsetting.
- 2:26:48Yes, definitely. But it was always thought of
- 2:26:50that way, like, like on the field when you're seeing him,
- 2:26:52he's like, oh, he's a tough nosed guy, but he was always one
- 2:26:54of the best players, coaches in the league.
- 2:26:56Like, did you get that kind of perspective with him?
- 2:26:57Coughlin was a hard coach. He's one of the coaches, like
- 2:27:00just on the field. Like he'd make you not like him,
- 2:27:02but then you talk to him off the field, he is the nicest guy
- 2:27:05ever. Like on that field, he's Drake.
- 2:27:08They will be followed or just won't be part of the group.
- 2:27:11My first year had surgery pre camp.
- 2:27:13He wouldn't say it directly to me.
- 2:27:15He'd come to the trainer that's standing by me while I'm, you
- 2:27:17know, doing the exercise bike or something.
- 2:27:19He'd say what's up with this guy?
- 2:27:21Like when's he coming back? Try to throw like little subtle
- 2:27:23jabs at, you know, I'm like, dude, like I, I had surgery,
- 2:27:26like what do you want me to do? He was hard, you know, but
- 2:27:29everybody loved playing for him. They loved his attitude.
- 2:27:31They loved his approach to the game.
- 2:27:32But he's a great coach. There's always seems to be be a
- 2:27:36guy that steps up. Obviously you had huge names on
- 2:27:38that team, but there's there's always that unsung hero.
- 2:27:42Who? The unsung hero?
- 2:27:43Is I don't think enough people give a lot of credit to the job
- 2:27:46that and I'm going to say it's three people enter a role beyond
- 2:27:50Grant, Kitty Phillips. I don't think a lot of people
- 2:27:51give enough credit to the job that those three guys did on the
- 2:27:55defense. Like for those three, because of
- 2:28:00the way we did our defense, Like it was hard for a lot of teams
- 2:28:05to put us at a disadvantage because we could put because
- 2:28:09Antrey was playing in our our nickel cornerback.
- 2:28:14But when teams will try to do a lot of motions and crazy sets,
- 2:28:18that kind of throw us off a little bit and a lot of
- 2:28:20different sets and motions and all that good stuff.
- 2:28:24And kudos to those guys for real, Dion Grant and Kenny
- 2:28:28Phillips. Kenny Phillips who?
- 2:28:30Who doesn't forget about Kenny Phillips?
- 2:28:32We are, as everybody knows, we are talking to former Falcons,
- 2:28:35Giants and Bengals linebacker Michael Boley, Super Bowl
- 2:28:38champion Michael Boley. And if you don't remember him,
- 2:28:41he was part of that linebacking core of the New York Giants that
- 2:28:45went all the way to the Super Bowl and surprise, the the one
- 2:28:49and only New England Patriots. Now going into the Super Bowl.
- 2:28:52What was it like experiencing that weak week and a half all
- 2:28:58the way to the Super Bowl and getting a chance to step on a
- 2:29:00field with one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, Tom
- 2:29:03Brady? Where you starstruck when you
- 2:29:06got on a field and you saw Tom Brady on the other side?
- 2:29:09Where you starstruck when you on one side of the sidelines and
- 2:29:12looking across and seeing Bill Belichick?
- 2:29:14What was it like playing against two of the greatest at both
- 2:29:18respectable positions? Well, just the the week in
- 2:29:21general was just amazing. You know, even just actually
- 2:29:25making it to the Super Bowl and then all the stuff that led up
- 2:29:28to it. You know, we, you know, we had
- 2:29:30all this stuff going on, you know, within the Giants and
- 2:29:33throughout the city. And then but as far as playing
- 2:29:38them, that was actually our third time playing them that
- 2:29:41season. So we played in the last pre
- 2:29:43season game of the year. I mean the starters didn't play,
- 2:29:46but you know, we played them as a team.
- 2:29:48We played them that year, during the year in New England,
- 2:29:52another, you know, it's kind of like, all right, we we've seen
- 2:29:56this show before, like. What can we?
- 2:29:59Expect, you know, we're still kind of, you know, we everyone
- 2:30:02know everyone. Knows Bill is a great.
- 2:30:04Coach and they know how he is a great game plan for every team
- 2:30:10that he goes against and so we kind of thought they would throw
- 2:30:14some wrinkles at us. So we kind of didn't know what
- 2:30:16to be prepared for, but to look across him and that at them in
- 2:30:21that moment, like it was a, it was a really in all moment, like
- 2:30:26wow. Like I'm on this stage against
- 2:30:28this team. It's like, wow, so seeing what
- 2:30:32Tom Brady and Bill Belichick have become now, obviously
- 2:30:34Belichick with the big loss, the 1st.
- 2:30:36Week of college season. Why do you have to bring that
- 2:30:38up? This has nothing to do with what
- 2:30:40Bill Belichick has done as a head coach in the NFL.
- 2:30:43And we talked about Tom Brady last week, obviously owning the
- 2:30:45Raiders, too, and the NFL kind of giving him a little bit of
- 2:30:48special. Treatment broadcasting.
- 2:30:50Now he has this $375 million contract.
- 2:30:53What are your thoughts? Are like both of them like since
- 2:30:55they've parted ways. You mean you say you say since
- 2:31:00them two harder ways. Yeah, well, Brady and Belichick
- 2:31:03and then and now, now. The NFL changes the rules for
- 2:31:06Tom Brady. He's 10%.
- 2:31:07Owner over there with the the Las Vegas Raiders and now they
- 2:31:11they've decided, hey, you know what, we're going to skip the
- 2:31:13rules. And now Tom Brady can go on the
- 2:31:16field, he can go into the locker rooms and he can actually be a
- 2:31:20play by play, you know, broadcaster for his own team's
- 2:31:23games. What are your thoughts to the
- 2:31:25NFL changing those rules for the one and only Tom Brady?
- 2:31:28Surprise, you know? The league is, you know, for
- 2:31:31one, the league is forever changing, you know.
- 2:31:34We've all, they've always been one to kind of put some stuff
- 2:31:38aside to, you know, change some rules and kind of see how it
- 2:31:41would go. But you know, Tom Brady is Tom
- 2:31:44Brady. You know, you, you know, he's
- 2:31:46arguably the GOAT, you know, at the quarterback position, you
- 2:31:50know, for him to play as well as he did for as long as he did so
- 2:31:54for and then for him to go off the field and still kind of be a
- 2:31:59symbol for a lot of people, like you said, being a minority owner
- 2:32:02but also being in the broadcast booth.
- 2:32:04Yeah, I think it's better open up windows for more people don't
- 2:32:07want to do stuff. As everybody knows.
- 2:32:09We are talking to former Falcons, Giants and Bengals
- 2:32:11linebacker Michael Boley. And I want to apologize.
- 2:32:14To the fans, there is no video because Michael Boley is in
- 2:32:18Arizona. There's a storm coming.
- 2:32:20So he's been going in and out. But we're very happy to have
- 2:32:22Michael on. I know he's a busy guy.
- 2:32:24He's got his son at six foot six, 330 lbs of absolute
- 2:32:29bulldozing offensive tackle in college right now.
- 2:32:33Hopefully he'll be in the NFL very, very soon and we maybe
- 2:32:37we'll get him in the studio. I, I would love to see a six
- 2:32:40foot six, 330 LB offensive tackle in the studio right now.
- 2:32:44But nevertheless, Michael, before we let you go, is there a
- 2:32:47particular player as an offensive, as a defensive player
- 2:32:52that you didn't like to play? And and who was the guy that
- 2:32:56talked the most crap on the football field against you?
- 2:33:00Gosh, there was a couple of them.
- 2:33:01But Victoria stands out in my mind.
- 2:33:03Michael Vick. Yeah.
- 2:33:05Oh man. You know, and that's just for
- 2:33:07me, like, as a defender, like. You know that's.
- 2:33:10Kind of like guys now, like you hate to see Lamar because you
- 2:33:13know, 1 he can, he can't throw the ball, but he's extremely
- 2:33:16dangerous with his legs. And it's like, you know, for
- 2:33:21both of those kind of guys like regardless of.
- 2:33:23How close or how many people? You threw at him in the
- 2:33:26backfield. You never really had him down
- 2:33:28until you had him down. And so that was that was one.
- 2:33:34But obviously, you know, you play.
- 2:33:35Against, you know, guys like Tom.
- 2:33:37Brady, Peyton Manning, you know, Aaron Rodgers, Those guys are
- 2:33:42extremely smart. Drew Brees, he was another one,
- 2:33:46and those guys are really good at making sex at the line.
- 2:33:51So those are guys you hate to play against because regardless
- 2:33:53of how much game planning you do, they'll come up and see one
- 2:33:57little small thing that looks off to them and next thing you
- 2:34:01know, you think you got it figured out and they're changing
- 2:34:03the whole play up. OK, who talked?
- 2:34:06Who spoke the most crap to you? On the football field, I mean.
- 2:34:10Across the field before the quarterback, you know, calls the
- 2:34:14ball and and calls the play, who is speaking what offensive
- 2:34:18lineman, what, what wide receiver, whatever.
- 2:34:21Who was the guy that spoke the most crap on the other side of
- 2:34:25the field when you were playing against them?
- 2:34:28Man? Steve Smith.
- 2:34:33We've heard that many, many times.
- 2:34:35We've had like. Steve, Steve was, you know,
- 2:34:38especially when I was in Atlanta, Steve talked it up and
- 2:34:40he backed it up like he's. One of those guys like he going
- 2:34:42to come out he going to let you know like it's going to be a
- 2:34:45long day for y'all and man like it's it's tough.
- 2:34:50You know when you get a guy who you know who's talking to you
- 2:34:53like that and then. You know your mind.
- 2:34:55Like, you know what, we got to set?
- 2:34:56We got to set this guy up. He's doing too much talking and
- 2:34:59then he comes out and he's still getting making catches on you,
- 2:35:02getting getting yards after the cats.
- 2:35:05And it's like, man, like, I can't stand this guy.
- 2:35:09But you know, Steve was especially, especially in his
- 2:35:11younger days, like Steve. Steve was like that.
- 2:35:14And then I remember playing Carolina when I think my first
- 2:35:19year in New York, but in my first or second year and I'm
- 2:35:25chasing. There was a run play and I'm
- 2:35:27chasing a ball down. He came in.
- 2:35:28And crack back. Blocked me and so I'm thinking
- 2:35:32OK, you know that's Steve. Like he going to be talking
- 2:35:35trash. Like the?
- 2:35:37Next series he actually came up was like my bad about that here
- 2:35:40earlier and it kind of threw me I'm.
- 2:35:41Like. I'm like he's, I'm like, he's
- 2:35:43messing with me, right? Like I'm like, I never seen
- 2:35:46Steve Smith like apologize to anybody.
- 2:35:48Like I'm like, I'm not him. Like he's got to be messing with
- 2:35:50me. But to me, like, I think that
- 2:35:52just showed maturity. Like, you know, he was getting,
- 2:35:54you know, he was getting older and.
- 2:35:56He's like, you know what I'm? All that childish, petty stuff
- 2:35:59is behind him. So it was Steve Smith.
- 2:36:04Interesting. It's not the first time we've
- 2:36:06heard this on this. Show and it probably.
- 2:36:08Won't be the last time. With all the different defensive
- 2:36:11players that we've had on this show, especially from that
- 2:36:13Atlanta team. We had like 4 of them, Steve
- 2:36:15Smith and I. I've never met Steve Smith but
- 2:36:18I've heard. So many stories I I spoke to
- 2:36:20Brandon. Marshall a couple of times and
- 2:36:23and Brandon Marshall is an offensive player.
- 2:36:25And I'm not talking about the linebacker Brandon Marshall, I'm
- 2:36:27talking about the wide receiver Brandon Marshall.
- 2:36:30And I I remember who was the guy that spoke to most crap on the
- 2:36:34football field and he says, well, I was on the field with
- 2:36:36him. But the guy on one sideline to
- 2:36:38the other, it was Steve Smith. He said Steve Smith didn't shut
- 2:36:41the F up. He he just kept yapping,
- 2:36:43yapping, yapping. And it didn't matter to him who
- 2:36:46he was playing against, how big the guy was, how small the guy
- 2:36:50was. He was a pest.
- 2:36:52He was a flea. He was a guy that didn't stop
- 2:36:54yapping. So not surprised that Michael
- 2:36:57Bolton, I mean, you love those kind of guys on your team,
- 2:37:01though. I mean, we had, I mean we had
- 2:37:02Brandon Jacobs. Brandon, Brandon.
- 2:37:05Brandon was taught before the game and he going to let you
- 2:37:07know, like you not going to tackle me?
- 2:37:09He let guys know he's like not a single one of y'all is going to
- 2:37:13tackle me. It's going to take a group
- 2:37:14effort. Yeah, well, and every time it
- 2:37:17took a group effort to get him down, well, speak of Brandon.
- 2:37:21Brandon Jacobs, he's. Been on our show quite a few
- 2:37:23times and decided. To.
- 2:37:24Disappear and he owes me and speedy a nice dinner and a jets
- 2:37:31and a jets giants game now Brandon, if you're listening to
- 2:37:35the show and we got to get Brandon Marshall he must have
- 2:37:37changed his Brandon Jacobs back on the show.
- 2:37:39He must have changed his number twice.
- 2:37:40I can't like even his e-mail. I can't get a hold of him ever.
- 2:37:43I, I, I, we, definitely. Got to get back him back on the
- 2:37:46show because he owes us a nice steak dinner.
- 2:37:49And a game to go to with him and his son, by the way, and his son
- 2:37:52huge, so huge, and has a chance to make the NFL next year.
- 2:37:55So very excited to get a chance to see.
- 2:37:58Is it? What is this?
- 2:37:59It's the second year of college football, I think.
- 2:38:01I think he's no, this is freshman year.
- 2:38:03This is freshman year. Yeah.
- 2:38:04I think he was registered last year.
- 2:38:06OK, so this is. His freshman year, so two more
- 2:38:09years of. College football and Brandon.
- 2:38:12Marshall's son is like a five star recruit offensive tackle,
- 2:38:15so very interesting. Both your sons are tackles and
- 2:38:19have a chance to make it to the NFL.
- 2:38:21So very interesting story. Brandon Marshall's son is 67300
- 2:38:25and 20 lbs. So Braden Jacobs and he's been
- 2:38:29on our show too. By the way, he was sitting right
- 2:38:31next to Daddy Dukes. But Michael, we'd love to get
- 2:38:35you on the show again when you're in, you know, in a place
- 2:38:38where we can interview you even better.
- 2:38:40I know you have a lot more other stories to get into when it
- 2:38:43comes to your giant years and your football career, but the
- 2:38:47fact that you came on, it didn't matter where you were sitting in
- 2:38:50the car or sitting on a bench at a park.
- 2:38:53We really appreciate the time, buddy.
- 2:38:56No problem, man. I appreciate you guys taking the
- 2:38:58time to have me on. Absolutely.

- 2:39:08safe after. Hopefully it's not too bad of a
- 2:39:11storm. Yeah, you know, we get those
- 2:39:14little dust storms out here from time to time.
- 2:39:17Say hello. To Mama Dukes too, by the way.
- 2:39:19All right, I will, man. Appreciate it.
- 2:39:21Michael Boley, ladies. And gentlemen, Super Bowl
- 2:39:23champion Michael. Boley and. 2011 New York Giants,
- 2:39:29great story, great person. Obviously you can tell that this
- 2:39:33guy is, is one of the best, one of one of the more interesting
- 2:39:37interviews we've had when it came to those New York Giants
- 2:39:40Super Bowl championship team. So we've had a couple of them.
- 2:39:44They've been on the show and I, I've been, I have a connection
- 2:39:48with Hakeem Nix. I want to get Hakeem Nix on the
- 2:39:50show. He I want to see what he's doing
- 2:39:53now, obviously away from football and and and moving
- 2:39:57forward in his offseason career. So I know he's doing something
- 2:40:01with the foundation, but I'm I'm working on getting Hakeem Nicks
- 2:40:04on the show. So that's that's going to be fun
- 2:40:07as well. All right, ladies and gentlemen,
- 2:40:09we call this next same segment in like Flint.
- 2:40:12Welcome to go with my lady. I've often heard that you'd give
- 2:40:14me a warm welcome if ever we met again.
- 2:40:20In like flan flan flan. What about did Mark?
- 2:40:24I had to take a shit, all right? Ladies and gentlemen, if you
- 2:40:28don't know, in like Flynn. So I'm going.
- 2:40:30To go through certain subjects and I want to go into fantasy
- 2:40:34and I want to go into the running backs in fantasy
- 2:40:37football. We were were speaking about this
- 2:40:39earlier and I see their ranking and I've been looking at all the
- 2:40:43different Yahoo rankings, ESPN rankings and all the different
- 2:40:46rankings, but this one really stood out from all the rest.
- 2:40:50So I'm going to go through the rankings and where they ranked
- 2:40:53these guys, and I'm going to give you a thumbs up or thumbs
- 2:40:55down if I believe that they should be placed in these
- 2:40:59positions. I'm going to go from 12:50.
- 2:41:03All right #10 Chase Brown, the Bengals running back, a lot of
- 2:41:09people like this guy. A lot of people think he's one
- 2:41:11of the more underrated running backs right now in the NFL.
- 2:41:15He had an interesting season last year.
- 2:41:17He, he was up and down when it came to health, but played a
- 2:41:20significant amount of time last year and showed himself to be a
- 2:41:24pretty good offensive option for Joe Burrow.
- 2:41:27I just don't think he's this high and I, I don't know why
- 2:41:30these fantasy drafts have rated him as high as they had had him.
- 2:41:34I, I was the argument Mikey C today and he said I, I would
- 2:41:37have went with Chase Brown if, if I was drafting 10 or 11 in
- 2:41:41some kind of, you know, in any fantasy draft.
- 2:41:44So especially a fantasy draft of 14.
- 2:41:46So I'm going to give this two thumbs down #9 Josh Jacobs.
- 2:41:52I'm very surprised Josh Jacobs was in higher when it came to
- 2:41:57these these fantasy points that Josh Jacobs when he is hot, when
- 2:42:01he is healthy, Josh Jacobs can do so many things.
- 2:42:05He, he can catch the ball in the backfield.
- 2:42:07He's he's very good at putting up a yardage and, and he's, he's
- 2:42:11a lot better than people think he is when it comes to the open
- 2:42:14field. I would have thought Josh Jacobs
- 2:42:16would be 6 or even 5 right now in in fantasy drafts.
- 2:42:21This guy could be strategically, if he stays healthy
- 2:42:25strategically in a draft. I'm drafting him in my top five.
- 2:42:28So I'm going to give this two thumbs down.
- 2:42:31By the way. By the way, he is your #2
- 2:42:32running back on your old 22 team.
- 2:42:34Yes, I like Josh Jacobs a lot, Kyron.
- 2:42:37Williams, number 8 on this draft, Paul.
- 2:42:41Here's the thing, I like Kyron Williams.
- 2:42:43He can't stay healthy. He hasn't been healthy for the
- 2:42:45last two seasons. When he is in, he's very
- 2:42:47important to an offense, a Sean McVay offense that is
- 2:42:51predominantly A Puka Nakua and Cooper Cup over the last couple
- 2:42:55of years. Now you have Devante Adams.
- 2:42:56Are we going to see a lot of Kyron Williams this year?
- 2:42:59That's the question. I know we had him in the Savior
- 2:43:02tears. Here's the thing, I do believe
- 2:43:06he's going to be a good running back, but is he rated in the top
- 2:43:09ten? I'm going to say no.
- 2:43:12So I'm going to give this another two thumbs down.
- 2:43:14I, I do not believe Kyron Williams is in my top 10 when it
- 2:43:18comes to running backs #7 Ashton Genti.
- 2:43:22Ashton Genti to me is a top five running back this year.
- 2:43:26Top five. I know he's a rookie and I know
- 2:43:29a lot of people question if he's there and he should be there.
- 2:43:32I I I disagree, but besides Brock Bowers and and Myers,
- 2:43:37Myers might not be there by the end of the season.
- 2:43:39He's going to want to be trade. He's demanded a trade.
- 2:43:41Geno Smith, they're going to be there.
- 2:43:43And Pete Carroll, Pete Carroll runs the ball.
- 2:43:46Seattle, Marshawn Lynch. That's what.
- 2:43:49Yeah, Penny over there. He likes to run the ball.
- 2:43:51Run ball first, run ball second, then throw the ball with Brock
- 2:43:55Bowers, Astringente should be a lot higher than 7.
- 2:43:58So another two thumbs down. Jonathan Taylor, number six.
- 2:44:04I think this is a perfect spot for Jonathan Taylor.
- 2:44:06This is a guy that could be an MVP candidate this year if he
- 2:44:09has a hot season. They don't have a quarterback
- 2:44:13now. We've heard this by Coach Fish.
- 2:44:15Daniel Jones is not the right guy, but Jonathan Taylor's going
- 2:44:19to give Daniel Jones a little bit more time to set, set his
- 2:44:22feet and throw the ball. Daniel Jones can run outside of
- 2:44:24the pocket. I like Jonathan Taylor at six,
- 2:44:27so I'm going to give him two thumbs up.
- 2:44:29Christian McCaffrey #5 I like Christian McCaffrey at #5 now
- 2:44:35anymore higher than #5 I would not write Christian McCaffrey.
- 2:44:40The problem with Christian McCaffrey is his injuries and
- 2:44:43his health. This guy is one year older than
- 2:44:46his age and he got a lot of money last year and that's why
- 2:44:51they brought Robertson in. I I really do believe they
- 2:44:53brought Brian Robertson in because they don't know if
- 2:44:55Christian McCaffrey could be healthy.
- 2:44:57We just talking about that with Chris Lombardi.
- 2:44:59That's the problem. If Christian McCaffrey could
- 2:45:01stay healthy, this guy's top three running back in the draft.
- 2:45:05So I'm going to give it 2 thumbs up.
- 2:45:08Jameer Gibbs. I love this spot.
- 2:45:10I think he's absolutely #4 in any fantasy draft, when it comes
- 2:45:15to the running backs, I love them.
- 2:45:17I think he's going to be, he's going to play a big part in
- 2:45:19Detroit's running game this year.
- 2:45:21Montgomery still there, David Montgomery.
- 2:45:23But this is going to be all Jameer Gibbs this year.
- 2:45:26David Montgomery will be 1/3. I would see a third, 3rd down
- 2:45:32back. That's where I I see him.
- 2:45:34Maybe he'll run the ball here and there on the first down.
- 2:45:36But Jameer Gibbs is going to be having, he's going to have a lot
- 2:45:39of touches this year and he's going to be so fun to watch.
- 2:45:42So I'm going to, I'm going to give him two thumbs up.
- 2:45:45Bijan Robinson #3 I first of all, Bichon Robinson, to me, you
- 2:45:50could put him #1 or #2 the fact that they have Derrick Henry on
- 2:45:54over him is crazy. But Bichon Robinson, he's always
- 2:45:58healthy. To me, he should be the number
- 2:46:01one back in this year's draft because he's always healthy,
- 2:46:04plays hurt, he puts a big numbers and on that offense he's
- 2:46:08going to touch the ball at least 25 to 30 * a game and he can
- 2:46:13catch the ball in the backfield. He's as efficient as any running
- 2:46:16back in this year fantasy draft, so 2 thumbs down.
- 2:46:20I think you should be higher. Derrick Henry #2 like Derrick
- 2:46:24Henry, like him a lot. I think he's the 6th best back
- 2:46:28in in this year's fantasy. He had a great season last year,
- 2:46:31but he's older. Remember he's lugging a lot of
- 2:46:34weight and he's more of a second-half running back, not a
- 2:46:37first half running back Over the years.
- 2:46:40This past last past season, he was very good all season long
- 2:46:43and he was healthy really all season long.
- 2:46:46So is Derrick Henry going to stay healthy?
- 2:46:48That's the problem. And I, I don't know if he would
- 2:46:50be this high. So I'm going to give him two
- 2:46:52thumbs down and Saquon Barkley number one.
- 2:46:55You can argue Saquon Barkley should be 1 or maybe even 2.
- 2:46:59I think he's a little too high. I, I have to see Saquon Barkley
- 2:47:02go back-to-back years healthy. I don't know if he's going to
- 2:47:06stay healthy this year. He won a Super Bowl.
- 2:47:08He proved himself last year with and almost breaking Eric
- 2:47:11Dickerson's record. I, I don't think he's number
- 2:47:14one. I think he's #2 I think Bijon
- 2:47:16Robinson was #1 in this year's fantasy draft.
- 2:47:18So I'm going to give him two thumbs down.
- 2:47:20So that, ladies and gentlemen, is my in like Flynn of the week.
- 2:47:25I went to fantasy and the top 10 running backs as far as what
- 2:47:29I've seen, and I kind of characterized from ESPN, the
- 2:47:34NFL, the NFL Network and then Yahoo.
- 2:47:37This is the one that really to me is the closest thing where
- 2:47:41everything was rated. So Saquon 1, Derek Henry 2,
- 2:47:46Bijon 3, I think bijon #1 saquon #2 Derek Henry number six.
- 2:47:52I would say Jameer Gibbs #3 that's where I would put it
- 2:47:56first round picking the beef slick, yes.
- 2:47:58So that's where I would go. So there you go in like Flynn,
- 2:48:01ladies and gentlemen. I like that one and.
- 2:48:04If you're a fantasy fan, you don't have to follow me, but I'm
- 2:48:07pretty good when it comes to drafting running backs.
- 2:48:09I've done very well over the years when it comes to drafting
- 2:48:13running backs. All right, the Goodwood is
- 2:48:14playing with himself. Or he probably was finishing it
- 2:48:17up. Breaking news, Goody has no
- 2:48:20woody. I am a legend.
- 2:48:22Yum Yum butt plug give me. Some pound cakes.
- 2:48:25All right, ladies and gentlemen, we call this next segment
- 2:48:28goodies. Bag of balls.
- 2:48:30My mom was going to wire a car. Battery on my testicles trying
- 2:48:32to put Tiger Bomb on this jungle's nuts goodies bag.
- 2:48:36Of balls. That's how you become great.
- 2:48:38Man, hang your balls out there a.
- 2:48:40Lot of hot ladies. All right, we're back actually.
- 2:48:46Pass that on the couch. For a minute there.
- 2:48:49Do you want to jerk me off? I set an alarm.
- 2:48:52Set an alarm to get back up. Boy, it's.
- 2:48:54Tough, it's tough. Two kids.
- 2:48:58What time do you get up in the morning goody?
- 2:49:02Just depends. Sometimes 5.
- 2:49:03Sometimes. Seven depends if I.
- 2:49:06Work out or not? Sounds like me.
- 2:49:10My wife gets up at 3:00 so wow, I just got terrible.
- 2:49:13Allergies. So like I don't.
- 2:49:14Sleep very often right now I'm. Actually going to the allergist
- 2:49:17tomorrow, so we'll see what happens.
- 2:49:18You definitely need to go see an allergist.
- 2:49:20I could see it in your eyes. Do they do they do that poke on
- 2:49:22your back, like to tell you you? Did that to me when I was
- 2:49:25younger. I don't want to do I don't want
- 2:49:27to do it again. So I don't know what they got in
- 2:49:29store. Tomorrow will be the.
- 2:49:30First one, but glory hole. Yeah dude, I walk around.
- 2:49:33Looks like I've smoked 12 blunts.
- 2:49:35Like, yeah. I just can't.
- 2:49:38Breathe. All right, let's get this
- 2:49:41started. I'm going to.
- 2:49:44This one's. Titled No, this one's this one
- 2:49:50isn't rather the right title? All right, let me paint the.
- 2:49:52Picture for you top. Of the 5th inning, bases loaded,
- 2:49:562 outs. Framber Valdez.
- 2:49:59Faces Trent Grissom. Catcher Caesar Salazar tried to
- 2:50:05have Framber step off the plate step off the mound.
- 2:50:11Valdez was expecting something like a curveball change up, but
- 2:50:16instead Bramber threw a 93 mile an hour sinker at.
- 2:50:21Grisham crush for a grand. Slam making it 6 to 0.
- 2:50:23Yankees 2 pitches later, Valdez's next throw another
- 2:50:28sinker 93 miles an hour as we just saw right there, hit
- 2:50:32Salazar squarely and chest protector Salazar's like, bro,
- 2:50:36what? Like, like we serious right now?
- 2:50:40What's going on? Look, he knows.
- 2:50:41He knows something happened. Like Valdez.
- 2:50:43You don't even acknowledge it. He's pissed.
- 2:50:45Gave up a Grand Slam. Here we go.
- 2:50:49Both players insisted that this was unintentional.
- 2:50:53A miscommunication. Maybe the crowd noise was there,
- 2:50:57Valdez apologize, Salazar said. I could have pushed the wrong
- 2:51:00button on the pitch. Com my take here is this is
- 2:51:08this. The Houston Astros showing.
- 2:51:10Cracks in A and their battery mate and their and their
- 2:51:15batteries they got going on here or what?
- 2:51:17What do? We got going on.
- 2:51:18Houston is still 76 and 63. They're leading the ALS, but
- 2:51:24that clearly was not good. It's blowing up all over social
- 2:51:27media. It's it does not look good for
- 2:51:33for the Houston Astros. Well, hold on one second.
- 2:51:35Are they hitting pals in the the dugout like we remember?
- 2:51:38I mean, I do remember an. American League Championship
- 2:51:42while they were doing that against the Yankees, that was
- 2:51:43probably the Yankees best chance of winning a World Series.
- 2:51:47I think the closest thing from since 2000, 2009, Jabba
- 2:51:51Chamberlain's New York Yankees when Matsui and Philadelphia,
- 2:51:54the Yankees played Philadelphia in the World Series.
- 2:51:57So I, I, I don't know. I, I don't know if it's, it's
- 2:52:00something to worry about. We have to see how everything,
- 2:52:03how everything falls together in the American League.
- 2:52:06I, I do believe that Astros are going to win their division.
- 2:52:10And I think the Astros are as dangerous as any team right now
- 2:52:14in baseball because of their pitching staff.
- 2:52:15I think they have 3 legitimate starters.
- 2:52:18They're dangerous and they got a pretty good bullpen.
- 2:52:20Yeah, but was it a pure accident?
- 2:52:22Was it? Was there too much noise?
- 2:52:24Was there with a button. Misfire by Salazar, obviously
- 2:52:29it's terrible timing tell him to step off.
- 2:52:31Yet he hits a Trent Griffin just comes through and hits an
- 2:52:35absolute monster Grand Slam. Or do you think it was
- 2:52:37intentional just by the body language and and what what
- 2:52:42transpired after the Grand Slam? I'll let Jabba answer that
- 2:52:45because it seems like he doesn't think he thinks it wasn't
- 2:52:48intentional. No, I I mean did you not see
- 2:52:53like just look at his body language in the way?
- 2:52:55That like it was his. First was they called a change
- 2:52:58up, but just it was a non competitive pitch, like there
- 2:53:01was no there was nothing behind it.
- 2:53:02And then the second one he literally like doesn't wait.
- 2:53:05He gets right after it. And then just his reaction and
- 2:53:09just listening to everybody from, you know, on, you know,
- 2:53:12MLB Central and everything and, you know, guys, catchers that
- 2:53:16they've talked to and, and it, it was pretty, pretty obvious.
- 2:53:21But you know, Salazar and Framer, they did a good job of
- 2:53:24of trying to cover it up. Salazar.
- 2:53:26Looked very, very awkward when they asked him about it.
- 2:53:29He's like, oh, maybe you know, the crowd was loud.
- 2:53:31There's a lot of Yankee fans. Maybe.
- 2:53:33I pressed. The wrong.
- 2:53:34Pitch comp dog, you were fine the entire an entire time like
- 2:53:39Oh, and then I guess there. You know, there's guys coming.
- 2:53:41Out as is it on Salazar to be like.
- 2:53:44Hey. Step off.
- 2:53:45Or is it just like you look at the umpire and be like, hey
- 2:53:47time? So it's for me, it's very
- 2:53:52because I've been in this situation where you're not
- 2:53:55trying. Like.
- 2:53:56You know when you cross a dude up and you're like, oh, my bad,
- 2:54:01but you don't react the way that for Amber reacted by like, Oh, I
- 2:54:07I didn't quite hear him because it was too loud.
- 2:54:09No, it's my opinion. It was there was something to
- 2:54:14behind it. I don't.
- 2:54:16Know if it? Was him stepping off or what
- 2:54:19have you, but it just, it didn't look good, that's for sure.
- 2:54:23It doesn't look like they're getting along with each other
- 2:54:25and. And.
- 2:54:26The Astros have been an organization.
- 2:54:29That. Has stuck together, as we all
- 2:54:31know. I've mentioned winning the World
- 2:54:33Series the way they did and now their manager is now managing
- 2:54:38the Detroit Tigers. So we all know first place
- 2:54:41Detroit Tigers. Yes, I agree.
- 2:54:43I agree. I think Hinge is actually a very
- 2:54:45good manager. I just think that.
- 2:54:47The Astros are a team that has has a tremendous amount of
- 2:54:52talent as far as far as pitching talent.
- 2:54:54I want to see when they make the playoffs how it all falls
- 2:54:58together. And are they going to have
- 2:54:59enough hitting to go all the way?
- 2:55:01That's the problem. And Correa, you going to bet
- 2:55:03Correa at third base is going to give you enough offense to get
- 2:55:06you over the top. I don't know.
- 2:55:07So goody maybe the next evolving and cheating they got to hire
- 2:55:10those Dutch pigeons that spy on things.
- 2:55:14They could be relaying signs or something like him as
- 2:55:17controversy or just conspiracies.
- 2:55:19Right now. They might.
- 2:55:21They need. Something to clean it up because
- 2:55:23they ain't looking too good down there in.
- 2:55:25Houston, I mean they're. In the 1st place right there,
- 2:55:27they're always in the media and it's, it seems like for never
- 2:55:30like the right, you know, the, the, there's never like, hey,
- 2:55:34you know, the Houston Astros, you know, donated a heart, you
- 2:55:40know, or something. It's like, wow, always
- 2:55:43something. Crazy.
- 2:55:44All right, let's move on the next one.
- 2:55:46I'm tired of when this is what I wanted to title when.
- 2:55:48Pimpin goes. Wrong, right?
- 2:55:52When and what, Huh. Pimpin.
- 2:55:55Isn't easy. Pimpin isn't easy.
- 2:55:57Well, it. Was for Raphael Devers.
- 2:55:59Top of the first. Setting O2 count.
- 2:56:02Rocky's left-hander Kyle Freeland versus Rafael Devers.
- 2:56:04Devers A2 run Homer about up and close to 400 foot.
- 2:56:08Devers pause for a second there to admire the shot.
- 2:56:11He's walking slowly bat flip. You can see him.
- 2:56:13John right there then allegedly shot the first.
- 2:56:17Clearly the veteran. Both veterans but clearly clear
- 2:56:21the veteran. Kyle for them was a little
- 2:56:23pissed off and had some words with that young superstar and
- 2:56:29Raphael Endeavors and that set off a bench clearing brawl.
- 2:56:32Benches cleared, bullpens cleared.
- 2:56:33Which bullpens clearing is always funny to me because you
- 2:56:38literally hang out with the guys all game and then it's like, oh,
- 2:56:42you got to. Go clear.
- 2:56:43Benches and in most stadiums are and a lot of stadiums you come
- 2:56:47out of the same tunnel. So it's like hold on guys, I'll
- 2:56:50get the door for you before we go stand around.
- 2:56:53It's so it's honestly, it's so dumb, but it is what it is.
- 2:56:58And you're not warm. You're like literally we we
- 2:57:01cleared in Anaheim. And this is when K Rod I.
- 2:57:05Think had like. 58 saves or something.
- 2:57:07He's like, I think I just. Blew out.
- 2:57:08My hamstring, Yeah. It's not like you're.
- 2:57:11You just take off. You're like, we cleared in
- 2:57:15Baltimore and you know, Baltimore gay.
- 2:57:16They have the cobblestone stupid.
- 2:57:18The worst spot. I was afraid I was just
- 2:57:21literally going to catch a cleat and just get.
- 2:57:23Tripled because once you're going, you're.
- 2:57:25Screwed, you got nowhere to go unless you run off into the berm
- 2:57:28in the center. I remember we cleared in Toronto
- 2:57:32and I can't remember his name. Big.
- 2:57:35Dominican pitcher for Toronto at the time.
- 2:57:38Come running out and I'm sprinting and I look over and
- 2:57:41freaking. This dude is just rolling out of
- 2:57:43the thing. Like like literally head over
- 2:57:46the hills rolling. And this was a crazy one because
- 2:57:50this is this is when Gary Sanchez got punched in the face
- 2:57:55by who was the catcher for Toronto in. 2000 and. 15 He was
- 2:57:59Canadian. Russ Martin.
- 2:58:01Russ Martin came back on the other side and smoked Gary in
- 2:58:05the face. And this is when our bullpen
- 2:58:08coach, Mike Hark, Yeah, picked up grilled cheese, Jason Grilli
- 2:58:13and like, walked them back. But anyways, we were, I was
- 2:58:15watching that. And then Hark's a big man, by
- 2:58:18the way. That's a big he's absolutely.
- 2:58:20That's my that's my dude. Yeah, he's a he's a absolute
- 2:58:24legend. But I just talked to him the
- 2:58:26other day. Did you I need to?
- 2:58:28Shoot him at that spot. Then I felt this big Mitt.
- 2:58:31Just like go on my shoulder and I.
- 2:58:32Look up and it's a blue. It's the Blue Jays reliever.
- 2:58:35I can't remember his name for the life of me, but I think he
- 2:58:38pitched for the Phillies too. He's really good.
- 2:58:40Tall, right-handed pitcher. Ken Giles.
- 2:58:42Was it Ken Giles? Ken Giles.
- 2:58:44I know he pitched for both those.
- 2:58:45No, he's Dominic. Dominic.
- 2:58:47He's Dominic. Oh oh.
- 2:58:48Yeah, Nifit says. Roberto Asuna asuna.
- 2:58:51No. He's little.
- 2:58:53He was. Little this is a big dude if you
- 2:58:55said it. Like for whatever reason they
- 2:58:57like Santiago comes to mind. But I can't.
- 2:58:59Remember, he was he was a well known guy.
- 2:59:00I was gonna say it's not wouldn't Santiago to see it?
- 2:59:03He was with the job. But if I had like, you know,
- 2:59:05consolidate hours, I can probably remember it.
- 2:59:06But right. Now, but I look.
- 2:59:10Up. I look up and he's just like
- 2:59:12looking at me. And he's like.
- 2:59:16And I'm like, yo, I'm gonna find out.
- 2:59:18He like blew his he. Blew his calf.
- 2:59:22Blues calf right there, right on the spot, running out and I'm
- 2:59:26just, I don't know. I was just like.
- 2:59:28To me, I was just Miguel Castro. No.
- 2:59:31No, not Miguel Castro. He was a thicker Dominican dude.
- 2:59:35Bigger what year, 2015? Interesting. 2016 Two. 1016.
- 2:59:44Toronto. You know what?
- 2:59:46You know what's so funny? You know what's so funny about
- 2:59:48Rafael Devers and I? I think he's a talented.
- 2:59:51Kid, I think he has an. Amazing.
- 2:59:53Ability. The guy was bitching and moaning
- 2:59:55because he lost his job over there with the Boston Red Sox.
- 2:59:58So the Red Sox traded him for practically nothing, OK, just to
- 3:00:02get him out of there and this guy just got a $300 million
- 3:00:05contract from the Red Sox. What was it a year and a half
- 3:00:07before that? And and to me, Devers is, to me,
- 3:00:12he's one of those guys that. You either like him or you hate
- 3:00:15him. And when you hit a home run like
- 3:00:17that and you smack a ball like that and you dance in a prance
- 3:00:20in a rock, it's Benoit. Yeah.
- 3:00:22From the Tigers. Joaquin Benoit.
- 3:00:24Joaquin Benoit. I remember.
- 3:00:26Yeah, look how big. He is.
- 3:00:27That was a monster, bro. He put his hand on me.
- 3:00:29And I was like, whoa. And then he had a filthy.
- 3:00:32Changer. Well, first of all, goody,
- 3:00:34you're not the biggest guy, OK? It don't matter.
- 3:00:38You know, in the heat of the moment that I'm looking at him.
- 3:00:40He's like Boppy. I'm like, oh, what happened?
- 3:00:45He's like, he's like limping. I'm like.
- 3:00:47I was like. And then I put two and two
- 3:00:48together, he was rolling out. All right, before we fit, before
- 3:00:51we get. There though, who do you think?
- 3:00:53Who crossed the line? Devers.
- 3:00:55Was it Devers? Devers breaking the unwritten
- 3:00:57rules of baseball? Or was it Freeland overreacting?
- 3:01:00You know, you know, Devers with the Bob.
- 3:01:03He gave up and he's been having a rough go.
- 3:01:05Devers, I think he's he could be nasty.
- 3:01:08We all know the background background of Rafael Devers.
- 3:01:11I think you don't flip the bat, you don't dance and prance
- 3:01:14around the the the bases the way you did, and then you're
- 3:01:16attacking and you're yelling at the pitcher.
- 3:01:18Just run around the bases and just get to the get to the home,
- 3:01:23get to the home and and get out. Get into the dugout and shut up.
- 3:01:26I think Rafael Devers was at fault with that whole thing.
- 3:01:30So yeah, I'd agree with you. It is.
- 3:01:36Why I? I don't.
- 3:01:39Freeland's lost. 100 games. Three games.
- 3:01:41It's he said that didn't have. Anything.
- 3:01:43To do with it, he's been grinding.
- 3:01:45His balls. Off that plays a part.
- 3:01:47You lose 100 every year with no chance to 39 in 130. 9 and. 9
- 3:01:52And they've lost 103 years in a row like that's not there.
- 3:01:55Never could I. Don't even.
- 3:01:57Know how it feels because I've never been in that situation,
- 3:01:59but that's got to wear on you. And then Logan Webb coming out
- 3:02:02and doing whatever. Freeland's been around long
- 3:02:05enough, he gets it. Devers, whatever.
- 3:02:07I mean, it's part of the game obviously now.
- 3:02:12I mean, there was probably a little.
- 3:02:14Bit of. You know, just frustration as a
- 3:02:16whole from Freeland. Like, I mean, it took him, like
- 3:02:19they said, 13 seconds to get down to 1st.
- 3:02:21But for me, I don't care because I'm going to, I'm going to fist
- 3:02:24pump and tell you to go sit down.
- 3:02:26So I need to make a better pitch.
- 3:02:28It does. It don't bother me.
- 3:02:29Yeah, I'm not one to get pissed about Pimp Thomas, but.
- 3:02:35I don't know, I guess if you lost, I mean, I guess it's it's
- 3:02:38it just sucks too, because it's. Like it just looks like but.
- 3:02:41The Rockies it. Even though he says it didn't
- 3:02:45affect it because of what? But you imagine losing like you
- 3:02:48got no chance to win. And Kyle Freeland.
- 3:02:50I mean. He had a freaking Cy Young year
- 3:02:54and he just is, you know, literally just hanging out to
- 3:02:57dry and. With no chance.
- 3:02:59Of. Winning in this team is
- 3:03:01obviously. It was funny.
- 3:03:02I was walking around our sports. Store today I saw.
- 3:03:04Chris Myatt in a Rockies dream. I was like that dude, still like
- 3:03:08still around like crazy you. Have to use my.
- 3:03:12Saying he still exists, it's just a surprise.
- 3:03:15Yeah, right at. One point.
- 3:03:17He was in AVP, my last. Topic here this is.
- 3:03:22Ones for. The Boys.
- 3:03:23Interstellar. Visitor 3 I Atlas.
- 3:03:25Is it just a comment? Or is it something more one and
- 3:03:29more as far as as far as what do you mean by something more,
- 3:03:33you're going to your. House let me.
- 3:03:34Get. Into it here.
- 3:03:35I got a nice. Little I got.
- 3:03:36To read this one, I got a nice little deal here in.
- 3:03:40August of 2025, astronomers detected detected 3 I Atlas, the
- 3:03:44third confirmed interstellar object entering our solar
- 3:03:47system. It's hurling toward the Sun at
- 3:03:49roughly 130,000 mph, making it the fastest sub such object ever
- 3:03:55observed. It's sporting a comma, a glowing
- 3:04:00Halo typical of comets, but oddly lacks a tail, which one
- 3:04:04would expect as a solar radiation pushes dust behind it.
- 3:04:07It's path aligns nearly perfectly with the plane of our
- 3:04:10solar system. A1 in 500 chance.
- 3:04:13If purely random, the oddities LED Harvard Lobe.
- 3:04:19I'm bringing this guy back up to suggest that there is a 40%
- 3:04:22chance of this object could be an extraterrestrial artifact.
- 3:04:26Not just a comment. I actually watch some stuff on
- 3:04:28Avi Lobe. He's actually a pretty brilliant
- 3:04:30guy. So travelling 130 miles an hour,
- 3:04:33I guess we never know what extra 1130 thousand.
- 3:04:37Yeah, 100 and. 30,000 mph I guess if you don't know any end
- 3:04:40of. Like what the extraterrestrial
- 3:04:42could be, Who knows? Maybe they can, they can move
- 3:04:44that fast. You call that?
- 3:04:45I don't, I don't know offhand. I'm not like that physics guy,
- 3:04:48but like lightspeed or whatever. But you haven't really heard
- 3:04:51anything about it. So the the debate here is,
- 3:04:54should we trust? Like NASA's reassurance that
- 3:04:57it's not going to come and hit us or is there a reason I I feel
- 3:05:01like it's not going to hit like it's something that fast, like
- 3:05:03it probably will change directions at point still
- 3:05:05because it's anti. Gravity.
- 3:05:08All right. Are you trying to tell me like
- 3:05:10this is going to be like an Armageddon or like a?
- 3:05:13Deep impact this would. Be a situation going be a earth
- 3:05:19shatterer. Earth literally had metaphors.
- 3:05:25A lot of. A lot of Earth, a lot of.
- 3:05:26Wind and a lot of fire. Blood.
- 3:05:30Is this like that movie? Where like the the evil God came
- 3:05:33out of the north. Pole in like.
- 3:05:35The Marvel movie. The Eternals.
- 3:05:36I don't care if Java trains either.
- 3:05:39Oh, that's great. That's a great movie.
- 3:05:41No, this is actually more like Armageddon.
- 3:05:44Armageddon. So Bruce Willis, he's not doing
- 3:05:47so well right now, so I need to find somebody else.
- 3:05:50Just got put into a home. Yeah.
- 3:05:52I don't know, Maybe we can have, what's his name, Batman.
- 3:05:57Beneficial created Jennifer Lopez for a while, Ben Affleck,
- 3:06:00maybe Ben Affleck and goes to get the world dissect.
- 3:06:04I mean, if he's not busy, you know.
- 3:06:08Well, yeah. Well, there's time.
- 3:06:09For 30 mile an hour wait so goody do you?
- 3:06:12Believe that it's a comet. That's gonna hit us and we're
- 3:06:16going deep. Impact.
- 3:06:17And you know, Elijah Woodwind before he was roto has to like
- 3:06:21go like get to high ground saying is if I don't get my
- 3:06:23shining MU 2 for the damn comet and it's Earth, I'm gonna be
- 3:06:27absolutely. Pissed you just made my nipples.
- 3:06:29Do you think it's gonna like give you like MU 2's force field
- 3:06:32powers or something like that? I gave up the booty there.
- 3:06:35I just want to hold it in my hand as the fire comes through
- 3:06:39and I'll let you lick my buddy. All right, goody, what are the
- 3:06:42odds at the 130 mile an hour comet instead of being run by an
- 3:06:44extraterrestrial? 130,000. 130,000 mile per hour
- 3:06:49comet is being fueled by the. MU 2 that you want on that car?
- 3:06:53What about skid? Mark maybe just they don't have
- 3:06:58any. Skid Marks and definitely is not
- 3:06:59being spoiled. By.
- 3:07:00Me this dobber. Actually goody I think according
- 3:07:03to the lore that is how MU 2 originally.
- 3:07:05Arrived on the planet Earth by a comet with no tail.
- 3:07:12MU 2 is created in the lab. I got to go back off maybe.
- 3:07:15Maybe it was MU one. Maybe MU, but MU 2 is created a.
- 3:07:19Good job. Where did this story come from?
- 3:07:22And. Why are we talking about it?
- 3:07:26Well, the reason is because NASA has every incentive to to be
- 3:07:31transparent. But does.
- 3:07:34The the whole. Panic control doesn't outweigh
- 3:07:38public breaking news. Butt plug our government.
- 3:07:43You know they have hid. Breaking news I need.
- 3:07:47Brews all the time, so if let's say a comment this.
- 3:07:51Size was coming do. You think they would tell us
- 3:07:55Speedy's mom? No, but we'll say that for the
- 3:07:58spy pigeons. Do you think they were people
- 3:08:02are going. To like a bunker right now.
- 3:08:04And like there's just like lines of traffic, no form.
- 3:08:07If they. Told.
- 3:08:08Us or something like that. Well, it's just funny you speak
- 3:08:11about bunkers because. The Dude.
- 3:08:13Who owns face? Facebook.
- 3:08:16What's his name? Zuckerberg.
- 3:08:18Zuckerberg has a bunker like all over the was one in Hawaii.
- 3:08:22I think he's got another one. I mean the.
- 3:08:23Guy has bunkers. Like, I mean, he's clearly you
- 3:08:26had to have watched Doomsday Preppers.
- 3:08:28That definitely was your show, huh?
- 3:08:30Carl plays with himself. I know, I know that there.
- 3:08:36I mean, I know that there are doomsday.
- 3:08:37Preppers for real. Like, I don't know what that
- 3:08:42shows. I mean, clearly it's about
- 3:08:43people who probably prep. For the doomsday, I'm gonna.
- 3:08:45Tell you they're not in Nebraska, there's many people
- 3:08:48with guns and they'll just sit in their driveway and just wait.
- 3:08:53Are they going to have they're going to have a driveway to sit.
- 3:08:55I'm a three eye Atlas comes in and just obliterates.
- 3:08:58Everything you. Got to be in a bunker, you got
- 3:09:00to be up in the hills. Everybody got them things in the
- 3:09:03Shaman Mountains or whatever they're called.
- 3:09:04They got all these little secret spots.
- 3:09:06I can't remember what the movie was called, but it it was pretty
- 3:09:09crazy. Maybe like Scoops sits on the
- 3:09:10sitter. What we really need is the Kevin
- 3:09:13Mensch arsenal of weapons for Doomsay all the.
- 3:09:16Stuff he had at his house. Wants.
- 3:09:18Oh yeah, I got a I'm prepared. I'm prepared.
- 3:09:21You never have enough. I just wanted to.
- 3:09:25Do you? Think that the government would
- 3:09:26tell us if it was actually on course with us?
- 3:09:30Let's let's not get cancelled here, goody.
- 3:09:32I shut up on your face, goody. All I know is that.
- 3:09:37I as a diabetic. Wouldn't last very long because
- 3:09:39I wouldn't have. Insulin so I.
- 3:09:41Would probably party really hard those let those like first three
- 3:09:44days of this apocalypse when? The comet.
- 3:09:48Alpha Centauri 11 Magnum comes and hits the Earth without its
- 3:09:53tail. Three eye Atlas.
- 3:09:55But you know what? Have another thought on me?
- 3:09:58Fish. I like anal.
- 3:10:03I'm done. Oh goodies, bag of.
- 3:10:05Balls. All right, ladies and gentlemen,
- 3:10:07we call the final. Segment of the Night King of the
- 3:10:09Hell. Here's the.
- 3:10:11King of the. Hill this, Bobby, is the
- 3:10:14Beltline. You never ever.
- 3:10:16Hit below that. Not that kind of King of the
- 3:10:18hill, you. Dumb.
- 3:10:21This is King of the Hill. Drobo smack my ass.
- 3:10:25All right, guys. Welcome back to King of the
- 3:10:28Hill. Goody, you're going to be happy
- 3:10:30to know. That I was able to defend your
- 3:10:33crown without you. Therefore you get to keep your
- 3:10:35crown as the king for tonight's king of the hill for the NFL.
- 3:10:41Couple of things though, that we're going to change up about
- 3:10:44the game. We need a little bit more
- 3:10:47knowledge base things without simply reading it off of the
- 3:10:51Internet. So I'd like you guys to try to
- 3:10:53have your explanations not not have it up on your screen.
- 3:10:58You could have a list of deep teams and defenses, but you have
- 3:11:01to give your own thorough explanation, and if the king
- 3:11:06happens to think AI wrote it, he doesn't have to move you on to
- 3:11:11the next round. Same thing, Kings.
- 3:11:13Whoever you are, each week you need to make sure that the crowd
- 3:11:17that is voting for you believes in your stories.
- 3:11:20Anyway, here we. Go round one.
- 3:11:21Peasant fight. Everyone's going to play.
- 3:11:24I'll be on the side goodies the king best defenses in NFL
- 3:11:29history. We're going to stop.
- 3:11:31Start with Tommy poops. All right.
- 3:11:36All right. Well, First off, I'm just going
- 3:11:37to 1st off, I'm going to kind of go first.
- 3:11:41Off you're. Just kind of First off, I'm
- 3:11:43going to go over. The 20. 3rd Seattle.
- 3:11:46Seattle Seahawks Now look, I probably could have took.
- 3:11:48Some other teams or. Whatnot.
- 3:11:50But the Seattle. Seahawks were just absolutely
- 3:11:52dominant. That year, that team, that
- 3:11:53defense was coached well, that the, the entire coaching staff
- 3:11:57on that team was amazing. The entire defensive front, the
- 3:12:00entire defensive safety on that team.
- 3:12:02The Legion of Boom, Baby. Give me the Legion of Boom to
- 3:12:04start off with. Errol the 1985 Chicago Bears the
- 3:12:09best of all time. Nobody forgets linebacker Mike
- 3:12:13Singletary, the Super Bowl champions.
- 3:12:16I mean, this team was loaded from from top to bottom,
- 3:12:20secondary, front 7, dominating. They shut down teams every
- 3:12:26single game. I'm going the 1985 Chicago
- 3:12:28Bears, speedy. I'm going to go with the 2000
- 3:12:32Baltimore Ravens, a team that allowed only. 10 points.
- 3:12:35Per game in the postseason. That was a stash out to our
- 3:12:37friend Dwayne Starks. We had him on the show was
- 3:12:39mentioning that they led all for a single season.
- 3:12:42Everyone in turnover, I believe among 21st century defenses,
- 3:12:45obviously Ray Lewis, Hall of Famer Chris McAllister and
- 3:12:48Dwayne Starks in that secondary, too.
- 3:12:50And tons of talent up front from the Baltimore Ravens team.
- 3:12:54And again, 10 points a game in the playoffs is hard to fathom.
- 3:12:57I got to go with that Jabba 20. I'm going to go weird one.
- 3:13:05Team that actually missed the playoffs would be the O 4 Bills.
- 3:13:10They only average. They went nine and seven missed
- 3:13:14the playoffs and they averaged less than 5 five yards per play.
- 3:13:19I think Kyo Spikes had like 100, 100 tackles with five
- 3:13:24interceptions. I mean, that's that's crazy to
- 3:13:27to think they had 24 picks and to not make the playoffs and
- 3:13:32just have a defense like that. I just looked it up.
- 3:13:36London Fletcher had 142 tackles. He had to kill Spikes and then
- 3:13:39he missed the playoffs. So the defense like that, only
- 3:13:41averaging. 4. .3 yards is is pretty tremendous.
- 3:13:46They all had so many good guys on that defense.
- 3:13:47They lost the ball at all at once.
- 3:13:50There were some bad quarterbacks in.
- 3:13:51Buffalo during those years I was in college there, that was.
- 3:13:55JP. Lossman I think back then maybe
- 3:13:58it was a first round pick at that same.
- 3:13:59Draft with Eli and Rivers. And all those guys, all right,
- 3:14:02Java, your second pick. 2nd pick I'm going to go with.
- 3:14:09The I. Don't.
- 3:14:10Oh, you know what I'm going to. I'm going to give fish some love
- 3:14:14and I'm going to go the Giants. This is, I think right after I
- 3:14:19was. Born.
- 3:14:21I think 868786, yeah. Super.
- 3:14:26Bowl was 87. Oh yeah, I just.
- 3:14:29I see I did know something right there.
- 3:14:32I think Lt. Had 20 sacks I believe that year
- 3:14:37and it was a defense that literally, I mean.
- 3:14:41He kind of held. By himself.
- 3:14:44Carl Banks was on. That and.
- 3:14:45He was about the only other one that really did anything, but
- 3:14:49yeah, I'm gonna go with those guys.
- 3:14:51Damn, who got? Thrown out now, spady, I'm gonna
- 3:14:54go with the first Super Bowl championship.
- 3:14:56Team for the Tampa. Bay Buccaneers.
- 3:14:57In 2002 with John Gruden. Derrick Brooks, who I think
- 3:15:00somebody used as one of their linebackers a few weeks ago,
- 3:15:02Warren Sapa, obviously, arguably they're the best in his
- 3:15:05position. You probably see him and John
- 3:15:06Randall for defensive tackles. Ronde Barber, one of the best
- 3:15:09blitzing corners and issues all around skills that he had.
- 3:15:12Some underrated guys too on that team with with Greg Spires, with
- 3:15:15Dexter Jackson. It was a Super Bowl MVP.
- 3:15:17So that team needed the defense because they had Brad Johnson, a
- 3:15:20quarterback, go with that. Tampa 2002 1976 the 1970
- 3:15:26Pittsburgh Steelers Everybody remembers the.
- 3:15:28Steel Curtain. Mean Joe Green, Mel Blonde, I I
- 3:15:32mean Hall of Famers, top end defensive players they
- 3:15:36absolutely shut down and by the way, how we long to we remember
- 3:15:39him a very big part of that defense that 19761970 Pittsburgh
- 3:15:45Steelers. All right, I'm going.
- 3:15:51With Speedy. Actually took my 2002 Buccaneers
- 3:15:53that I was going to go with, but I'm staying.
- 3:15:55More on the recent. Side I picked the 2013 Seahawks
- 3:15:57and I'm going to go with the 2015 Denver Broncos the Super
- 3:16:00Bowl champion Denver Broncos and basically of course, like I
- 3:16:04said, one Super Bowl 50 they. Had a keep.
- 3:16:06To league DeMarcus Ware on that team, Chris Harris, junior
- 3:16:09people like TJ Ward, and of course they didn't get any
- 3:16:12better when Von Miller was up there running on being being a
- 3:16:15menace on the field like he usually does.
- 3:16:16So I'm going to go with the 2015 Denver Broncos and for my next
- 3:16:20pick I'm did anybody say the 72 dolphins?
- 3:16:24No, I'm going to the 72 Dolphins, going with the 72
- 3:16:27Dolphins, then the no name defense.
- 3:16:30That team just. Aside from the Super Bowl, of
- 3:16:32course. That team was the most perfect
- 3:16:33team in all of NFL history. They went of course undefeated
- 3:16:36in the regular season and was of course their defense was really
- 3:16:39big key in that Super Bowl at alone as well too.
- 3:16:43That score was absolutely a defensive scoring game.
- 3:16:46Yeah, I'm. Going with the 72 Dolphins,
- 3:16:49Errol. Now I know a little bit.
- 3:16:52About this, this defense. And and I do remember.
- 3:16:55A bits and pieces of what people have told me the 1969 Minnesota
- 3:16:59Vikings definitely stood out. I mean, look, listen to the
- 3:17:02listen to this defensive line. Alan Page, Jim Marshall, Carl
- 3:17:07Eller and Gary Larson. Everybody remember Gary Larson?
- 3:17:11He was pretty damn good. So, and they were all the pro
- 3:17:14ball players, yes, they that whole line were pro ball
- 3:17:19players, three of them. Were all pro players?
- 3:17:21That year, so I'm going to go with 1969 Minnesota Vikings
- 3:17:26speedy. I'm going to go a path kind of
- 3:17:28like Jabba, a very underrated defense for a team.
- 3:17:30I don't think that. Was overly good in the regular.
- 3:17:32Season but. The 1991 Philadelphia Eagles
- 3:17:35that I believe allowed AI think less than 50% of passes.
- 3:17:38There's some crazy stat that they had.
- 3:17:40Obviously the Reggie White was there.
- 3:17:42Clyde Simmons was 100 sack type pass rusher to Eric Allen who
- 3:17:45just got inducted into the Hall of Fame.
- 3:17:47Like that was crazy. And NFC East at that time, we
- 3:17:50talked about another King of the Hills in the past, that was a
- 3:17:52loaded NFC East that year with Dallas, Washington and the
- 3:17:55Giants. And I forget like the last team
- 3:17:56that was in there. But that would like that Eagles
- 3:17:59defense all at once in 91. Yes, you're right.
- 3:18:02The Phoenix Cardinals, you did mention that one week.
- 3:18:04That's right. But yeah, that 91 defense,
- 3:18:06that's some crazy numbers and great talent.
- 3:18:09All right. And wrap it up, Jabba.
- 3:18:11Yeah, That that was the team I was going to take to.
- 3:18:13They had. They had. 6 dudes with 100
- 3:18:15tackles was that. Was.
- 3:18:17Wasn't that the year Randall Cunningham blew out in the
- 3:18:19season opener? Right.
- 3:18:21I think so. Might have been in a little
- 3:18:23year. Yeah, my dad loved Randall
- 3:18:25Cunningham. That's really the only reason.
- 3:18:27I. Really probably knew that,
- 3:18:29actually. Oh shit, I'm I'm out on this one
- 3:18:33because I got nothing so you you can.
- 3:18:36Count me out. I'm pissed.
- 3:18:39I'm watching the Yankee game too, so this is ridiculous.
- 3:18:44All right, Goody, are you kid? Goody, who are you?
- 3:18:47Picking. I'll pick one, you pick.
- 3:18:49One all right, all right. All right, count of three. 1/2.
- 3:18:543 arrow, speedy. All right, arrow and speedy.
- 3:18:58Moving. On I thought Arrow's picks the
- 3:19:011st 2:00. Picks especially were excellent.
- 3:19:04There we go. All right, here we go back into
- 3:19:07the the presentation slides for you.
- 3:19:11Best defense history was round one.
- 3:19:13Now we go to the joust to take a chance to take on the king.
- 3:19:18Here it is the finalist Errol and speedy will compete in best
- 3:19:23home field advantage in the NFL. Tell me about the stadium and
- 3:19:29the team and why they have a home field advantage.
- 3:19:33Here we go start who you want to start goody let's let's go with
- 3:19:40the speedster. I feel like I.
- 3:19:42Want I want the pressure on arrow.
- 3:19:44All right, Speedy. All right, I'll, I'll go with
- 3:19:47the obvious 1 you guys mentioned earlier, the Seattle Seahawks,
- 3:19:49the 12th man. They had.
- 3:19:51The highest decibel record for a while until it was broken.
- 3:19:54It was kind of a foot flop with them and another team that might
- 3:19:57be used later in this in this segment.
- 3:19:59But obviously for a team that for a team that almost lost
- 3:20:02their team, remember in 1999 with the King Dome, like it
- 3:20:05rallied around that football community and then they retired
- 3:20:07the number 12 for that reason. They had, I think, only 10 home
- 3:20:10losses in the span of that whole stretch with Russell Wilson and
- 3:20:13the Legion of. Lesion a boom in a span of 10
- 3:20:15years. So I'm going to go with that,
- 3:20:18Errol. I'm going to go the Kansas City
- 3:20:21Chiefs in Arrowhead Stadium. 31 and 10.
- 3:20:25At home, 11 and two in the playoffs, we all know Patrick
- 3:20:29Mahomes, Travis Kelce and the one and only Andy Reid.
- 3:20:32I mean since Asia Land and by the way, Mr. Jones himself,
- 3:20:35Chris Jones. So I I mean look at the record.
- 3:20:37The record says it sells it for itself.
- 3:20:40And think about it, going to the playoffs year in and year out
- 3:20:44and winning at home the way they have dominantly 11 and two in
- 3:20:48the playoffs in the last one 5-6 years, I mean, it's pretty
- 3:20:51incredible. I'm going to go Kansas City,
- 3:20:53Arrowhead, speedy, All right, I'll go with another team that
- 3:20:56dominated in the playoffs for a while.
- 3:20:58That was the Patriots and Michael Bolivos on that Giants.
- 3:21:01Team that actually broke. Their home winning streak, it
- 3:21:03was I believe 28 straight games they won at home up until the
- 3:21:052011 Giants and beat them. They were in the AFC
- 3:21:08championship game seven straight years because they were winning
- 3:21:11a lot of those home playoff games.
- 3:21:12And obviously Brady and Belichick were there.
- 3:21:14You never wanted to play in the cold there and even really good
- 3:21:16team like the Steelers and the Colts really struggling up there
- 3:21:19in New England, the Buffalo Bills, Highmark Stadium,
- 3:21:24everybody knows the Buffalo Bills.
- 3:21:26Think about this. The Buffalo Bills at home in the
- 3:21:28regular season over the last, what, 5-6 years?
- 3:21:31They're 31 and eight. One of the best records.
- 3:21:33They have the best home record besides the besides the
- 3:21:37Baltimore Ravens, they have the second best record right behind
- 3:21:41the Baltimore Ravens at home in the AFC.
- 3:21:45So I'm going to go the Buffalo Bills Highmark Stadium.
- 3:21:48We all know the crazy fans that they are over there.
- 3:21:50I'm going to go Highmark Stadium last round speedy.
- 3:21:56Yeah, it's tough to not say home field advantage without.
- 3:21:58The team in. Wisconsin.
- 3:22:00The Green Bay. Packers, Lambeau Field,
- 3:22:02obviously the fans, all the traditions that they've done
- 3:22:06pregame, everything in the game, you never want to play up there,
- 3:22:09November, December, and they always say it's a very difficult
- 3:22:12thing for them in those frigid, frigid temperatures.
- 3:22:15There's only select few like the Giants that have beaten them in
- 3:22:17-10° - 4° temperatures in that NFC Championship game.
- 3:22:22Lambeau Field always decked out the some of the best fans
- 3:22:25probably in the NFL, as much as I can't send the Packers, but
- 3:22:27they always are prideful with their football.
- 3:22:30The frozen tundra of Lambeau Field.
- 3:22:34Yeah, so. So I.
- 3:22:36Thought it was. The best don't.
- 3:22:37I haven't don't have a final. Yeah, Errol, got Errol.
- 3:22:41Last one just I thought it was. More so like the atmosphere the
- 3:22:45fans produce, you know what I'm saying?
- 3:22:47Well, if. You want to be critical of one
- 3:22:49persons explanations. We could do that in a second
- 3:22:52after Errol's. Last pick, Errol, I'm going to
- 3:22:55go to the Denver Broncos Mile High.
- 3:22:57It's very hard to play over there.
- 3:22:58I mean high elevation. The fans are crazy over there.
- 3:23:02I I mean nobody and and I could I would have went with the
- 3:23:05Eagles. Philadelphia's another place.
- 3:23:07The fans are crazy. They're throwing, beating up
- 3:23:09Santa Claus. If you want to go that way, I
- 3:23:11would go Philadelphia. They're crazy.
- 3:23:13But the play hard, one of the hardest places to play and all
- 3:23:18the football is Denver. It it's, it's almost impossible.
- 3:23:21You ask Tom Brady, go look at Tom Brady's record at Mile High.
- 3:23:25It's he has the worst record at Mile High Stadium And, and Tom
- 3:23:29Brady's one of the greatest of all time.
- 3:23:30Peyton Manning before he went to the Broncos.
- 3:23:33Go look at Peyton Manning's record at Mile High.
- 3:23:36These guys are two of the greatest of all time.
- 3:23:38So I'm going to go Mile High. I think the Broncos are the only
- 3:23:40AFC team Brady has a losing record.
- 3:23:42Yes, it is. And and Peyton Manning, too.
- 3:23:45All right, Goody, who you going with to?
- 3:23:47Take on the king I want Tommy poop to.
- 3:23:50Take this one. Tommy celebrity shot come.
- 3:23:56On poop. I'm going.
- 3:23:59To. Go with turn your camera.
- 3:24:03On oh be on the can. You might be on the can.
- 3:24:06Does he know? Do you know the teams?
- 3:24:07Do you? Know you had Arrowhead and you.
- 3:24:10Also had what was your teams again?
- 3:24:11You had the Bills, I think. Buffalo Bills Arrowhead in
- 3:24:13Denver. You had.
- 3:24:16I had Seattle, I had New England, I had.
- 3:24:17Green Bay, Yeah, honestly. I'm going with Errol on this
- 3:24:22only because. Arrowhead is really hard to play
- 3:24:25in as well too. Arrowhead.
- 3:24:27Is, I think, by far the loudest stadium right now, yeah.
- 3:24:29They had. They took the.
- 3:24:30Record from the Chiefs, that's what I was.
- 3:24:32Or the Seahawks, that's what I was referencing.
- 3:24:33I was hoping he wouldn't pick them so I just saved.
- 3:24:35Them right, but yeah, that in the on top of that, honestly, I
- 3:24:39would have picked Seattle first, by the way.
- 3:24:40So right, probably that that would have been also.
- 3:24:42Too. That was a good pick on.
- 3:24:43Speedy too, I really. Like both of your teams, Speedy,
- 3:24:45Your teams are really good. All three of your.
- 3:24:47Teams are really good. But just the fact, of course,
- 3:24:49how loud Arrowhead is to play. I also said in the chat too, But
- 3:24:52Derek Carr said that when he went to New Orleans, he was
- 3:24:54showing what's his face back up Taysom Hill, how he puts little
- 3:24:57earpieces into his helmet because the stadium is just so
- 3:25:00damn loud over there. And of course, the Buffalo
- 3:25:02Bills, they just play in such a great stadium.
- 3:25:04Their fans, like Jabba always mentions are absolutely nuts.
- 3:25:08And you know, the fact this is that it's very hard to play over
- 3:25:10there in the cold as well, too. But Speedy, I know you were
- 3:25:13mentioning what the Patriots called, but I don't know.
- 3:25:15I just think it's a little and you mentioned Lambeau Field.
- 3:25:19That was one that I thought for sure it was really that was.
- 3:25:22That's a. Solid pick.
- 3:25:24Yeah, I thought it was close, but I thought Speedy's pick a
- 3:25:27Foxborough as opposed to some. Of the other ones that you just
- 3:25:30mentioned wasn't good enough, and I would have went with Errol
- 3:25:32as well. So here we go, Errol versus
- 3:25:36Goody, a chance for Errol to reclaim his crown.
- 3:25:40Jabba come back in. We're going to get into the
- 3:25:43voting after we see the last round where you take on the king
- 3:25:51time very appropriately, Errol, to talk about the best team
- 3:25:59owners in NFL history. Yes, a lot of news has been made
- 3:26:04about a certain owner on this program in the last week or so.
- 3:26:08I think his name might come up from a certain arrow marks in
- 3:26:13this one, perhaps. Let's start this one off, Goody.
- 3:26:18You're the king. You guys choose if you want to
- 3:26:20go first or second. First, because I know Arrow.
- 3:26:22I know Arrow's finna go hard on on the Stars down in Dallas.
- 3:26:27So we're going to start this one off with legendary Pat Baldwin.
- 3:26:34The guy was all about winning, and he brought a winning culture
- 3:26:38to the. Broncos.
- 3:26:40He didn't just. By the team or inherit the team.
- 3:26:44He built a winning machine from the ground up.
- 3:26:47We're talking legacy. Boland's legacy.
- 3:26:50He drafted smart. He hired smart people.
- 3:26:53He thinks like Mike Shanahan and then the John Elway era and
- 3:26:58knowing that he created the Mile Highs of Fortress guys.
- 3:27:03Incredible players, love them and he let the coaches.
- 3:27:07Coach that. Is a rare combination as an
- 3:27:11owner Errol. Now this guy, there's a lot of
- 3:27:16guys that I want to go and I'll I'll save.
- 3:27:18The one that you guys are waiting for?
- 3:27:19Me to say to the final, the final guy, but there there's two
- 3:27:23guys that really stayed out to me the most.
- 3:27:25Wellington Marrow was one of them.
- 3:27:27Wellington Marrow with the New York Giants, him and Dan Rooney.
- 3:27:30Those guys really revolutionized the game in ownership.
- 3:27:34You you talk about guys that really solidified themselves,
- 3:27:38Dan Rooney and Wellington Mara and I would go one and two with
- 3:27:40these guys. They solidified the ownership of
- 3:27:43the NFL. All right, I'll go I'm going to
- 3:27:46go Wellington Mara. I'll go Wellington Mara for what
- 3:27:49he. Did and and how?
- 3:27:51How he really redefined ownership in the NFL.
- 3:27:55If you think about what he gave the New York Giants in his final
- 3:27:58move for the ownership of the New York Giants, he gave him Tom
- 3:28:01Coughlin, he gave Bill Parcells. He gave Bill Parcells his first
- 3:28:04chance of being a head coach in the NFL.
- 3:28:06And you can see all the great, great coaches that came out from
- 3:28:09Wellington Mara's, you know, tree.
- 3:28:11Think about it, Bill Parcells, Tom Coughlin, Bill Belichick,
- 3:28:14and I'm sorry, Sean Payton, all those guys, they came from
- 3:28:19Wellington Mara's tree of coaches.
- 3:28:22I'm going to go Wellington, Mara, the Duke.
- 3:28:26All right, Cool. Cool.
- 3:28:27That's what's up. I like it.
- 3:28:29How's it going? Well, this guy.
- 3:28:33This guy is known for for popping in and getting a.
- 3:28:37Little rubbing. Tug on the side.
- 3:28:40We're talking about the. We're talking about the master
- 3:28:45pimp himself. He's blowing loads on the field.
- 3:28:48He's blowing loads in the in the rub and tugs, all right?
- 3:28:52He built a dynasty, and now he did it quietly.
- 3:28:55He gave Bill Belichick the reins.
- 3:28:57He gave them the freedom. He gave them the chance to draft
- 3:29:00right. And he created one of the most
- 3:29:02feared franchises in history. He won 6 Super Bowls with Tom
- 3:29:07Brady, the culture king. No drama in this guy's team, all
- 3:29:12right? Teams feared going up the
- 3:29:14Foxboro. A little extra flavor here craft
- 3:29:19crap. Is it a owner that necessary?
- 3:29:21And look at my dog right there. There we go See he's a pimp.
- 3:29:25He's like 95 in there and he's knocking it.
- 3:29:28So he don't even know how to build the.
- 3:29:29Team. He knows how to knack it to
- 3:29:30them. You know the ladies, but he's
- 3:29:33not one to shout. He see, you know, from what I
- 3:29:36understand, he just plots perfection, right?
- 3:29:41And other players and other owners that they hate they hate
- 3:29:45it they hate it because he's always three steps ahead and you
- 3:29:49know who that is? That's the man the craft cheese,
- 3:29:51Robert Robinson craft. All right, Errol.
- 3:29:56All right, so I, I was going to go with Dan Rooney, but I'm.
- 3:29:59I'm going to go somewhere else. I'm going to go with the great
- 3:30:02Al Davis. Remember those Oakland Raiders,
- 3:30:06those Raider teams, It's just who he was the personality that
- 3:30:10he was. You want to talk about rug and
- 3:30:11Rob and Doug, you ask anybody that we've had Raider guys that
- 3:30:14have been on Al Davis solidify the ownership.
- 3:30:17He really redefine ownership. When you talk about the guy
- 3:30:21moving from one guy who went to the Cowboys and we all we're I'm
- 3:30:25about to give you why I'm going to go with him next.
- 3:30:28I the Al Davis was the guy he solidified the position.
- 3:30:32Well, I'm sorry, Jones is mine. Well, I'm sorry.
- 3:30:35Alright, Alright. You could go with Jerry.
- 3:30:37Jones That's fine. Strong personality.
- 3:30:40Obviously transformed the Raiders into one of the greatest
- 3:30:43dynasties of the 70s. I'm going to go with Al Davis,
- 3:30:47Alright, last round. Well, we know I'm going with
- 3:30:51America's team right here, right?
- 3:30:53I'm going with Jerry Jones. And you know, I want you to.
- 3:30:55Time it a little bit on Jerry Jones too, because I know your
- 3:30:57blood pressure's ticking. I can see you sweating a little
- 3:31:00bit over there. You're getting a little tit
- 3:31:01sweat on there and your wife are you?
- 3:31:03What are you wearing right now? You got a backpack on it.
- 3:31:05What do you got? What are we going on here?
- 3:31:08What are you trying to get? It's like good.
- 3:31:09What are you playing with yourself?
- 3:31:10You're wearing AT shirt and probably wearing.
- 3:31:14You're probably in your. Underwear.
- 3:31:15Right now we, yeah, look at that TLC.
- 3:31:17That's right, at least I know how to sing.
- 3:31:22No scrub anyway. He's loud, he's brash, but you
- 3:31:27know what? Jerry Jones, He made the
- 3:31:30Cowboys. The NFL.
- 3:31:32Brand team like he is he he made.
- 3:31:37The Cowboys. Franchise, the franchise.
- 3:31:40He's won multiple Super Bowls. I mean, he's got a Billy with
- 3:31:44AB. He's a billion dollar franchise.
- 3:31:47He's a marketing genius. He turned America's team in the
- 3:31:50most famous sports brand on earth aside from the New York
- 3:31:53Yankees. You can love him, you can hate
- 3:31:55him, but he put his stamp on this league and he knows how to
- 3:32:00win in the business and he knows how to win in football.
- 3:32:03All right, finish it off Arrow. So I went with Wellington Mara,
- 3:32:07I went with Al. Davis and I'm going to go.
- 3:32:10I, I could go with either or, but I'm going to go with Dan
- 3:32:12Rooney. The Steel City.
- 3:32:13I, Dan Rooney is one of the greatest owners of all time.
- 3:32:16The Rooney family, they redefine ownership.
- 3:32:19Like I said with Wellington Mara, when we talk about the
- 3:32:22greatest owners of all time, you're going to hear the Rooney
- 3:32:24family and you're going to hear the Mara family.
- 3:32:26What he did with the Steel City, what he did with the Pittsburgh
- 3:32:29Steelers is revolutionary and revolutionary Super Bowl
- 3:32:33championship, everything strong, strong organization and and
- 3:32:36really kept the Pittsburgh Steelers in the city going and
- 3:32:40and why they're one of the greatest football teams of all
- 3:32:43time. I'm going to go with the
- 3:32:44Pittsburgh Steelers and Dan Rooney.
- 3:32:46So Wellington Mara, Al Davis and Dan Rooney.
- 3:32:51All right. I went Pat Boland, Robert Kraft.
- 3:32:55Pat Boland. And Jerry Goody.
- 3:32:59Unfortunately, Viking C is not here to judge good.
- 3:33:02To give you the Robert. Kraft.
- 3:33:03Pass bowling. All right, so I'm going to I'm.
- 3:33:07Going to vote goody. I love you man.
- 3:33:12But I love you man. But.
- 3:33:15This one. Wasn't super close tonight.
- 3:33:17Errol. Errol takes this one down.
- 3:33:19Pretty. Much bowling Maris and Rooney's
- 3:33:26football royalty. All right.
- 3:33:29Well, whenever you get hot. Minute Google Top NFL owners
- 3:33:33tell me the top three. Come up.
- 3:33:34By the way, Al Davis movie, that movie is coming out with Nick
- 3:33:38Cage playing Wait, Wait, don't change.
- 3:33:40The. Back John Madden, John Madden
- 3:33:43and Al Davis with Christian Bale Batman playing.
- 3:33:45Al Davis, that's going to be. Awesome.
- 3:33:47All right, well, whenever you get quick minute, go ahead and
- 3:33:50do that, someone comes up. My fault, King.
- 3:33:53Tommy, who you going amateur? I'm I'm going with Errol.
- 3:33:57Goody good try like like Fish said, it's just.
- 3:34:01Yeah. It wasn't heavy.
- 3:34:02Where's the crown? It wasn't as close to that.
- 3:34:05You know Mara and. Rooney are like right, Fish
- 3:34:09said. Just the absolute royalties of
- 3:34:10the. Of the ownership.
- 3:34:12And Al Davis is? Actually, they're related.
- 3:34:14They're family. No, Mara and Rooney are.
- 3:34:17Not. Family.
- 3:34:17No, no, no. Not Mara and Rooney.
- 3:34:18Yes, they are. Not that I they.
- 3:34:20They the two of them, weren't family.
- 3:34:24But they married. In of that yeah they married in
- 3:34:26but they're not family he's talking about Yeah well they're
- 3:34:30in the grandfathers yes I mean yes but yeah I'm going with
- 3:34:35Errol tonight I just thought his pics were way better than than
- 3:34:37goodies and I want a lot more elaborate just.
- 3:34:40Absolutely. More dominant.
- 3:34:42Sorry. Goody.
- 3:34:43All right, Jabba. Yeah.
- 3:34:46I've. I've been in that family.
- 3:34:47Before in a in a. Different.
- 3:34:49Way. The Rooneys and the mayor's SO.
- 3:34:52New York, NY was good to me. But yeah, I I know exactly where
- 3:34:58you're going, goody. But yeah, overall, I'll have to
- 3:35:03give this one to Errol. All right, that clinches it and
- 3:35:06speedy wrap it up. Yeah, I would have taken out.
- 3:35:09So still Rooney and Al Davis sort of in my top too as well.
- 3:35:12I think their influence on. Steelers were terrible.
- 3:35:15For a while, like they were almost like dead.
- 3:35:17They combined with the Eagles that one year, and then the
- 3:35:19Raiders, like all the spots they moved, establishing football
- 3:35:21culture there, too. And I was saying all our guests
- 3:35:24that we've had on from the readers say all the alumni
- 3:35:26association they put together with a lot of that to do with Al
- 3:35:28Davis. Al Davis was everything.
- 3:35:30And by the way, another guy that I would have used is Eddie
- 3:35:34Departolo. The San Francisco 49ers owner
- 3:35:37who really transformed the San Francisco 49ers in the late 70s
- 3:35:42and early 80s and he was the one that took a chance with Joe
- 3:35:45Montana in the second round. Goody, you did.
- 3:35:49You did win on most fun though probably to have with Robert
- 3:35:52Kraft. I know it just you needed five
- 3:35:54Mikey CS to be your judge. You would go Robert Kraft and
- 3:35:58Jerry. Jones and the most fun category.
- 3:36:00Certainly I would have went with.
- 3:36:02Jerry Jones as my third guy, by the way category.
- 3:36:05But I'm going, yeah, I'm going to pull this up real quick.
- 3:36:08Let me do a quick. All time.
- 3:36:12GOAT NFL owners, here we go. All right, they were just.
- 3:36:16Buyers, is that from your boy from.
- 3:36:17Harvard as well ready without any scientifically.
- 3:36:21Proven anything? Just look that up, all right?
- 3:36:25I've looked it up, you want. Me to give you my list.
- 3:36:29Yeah, this says Pat. Bolin, Robert.
- 3:36:31Kraft, Dan Rooney, Jerry Jones. Art Rooney, Al Davis, George
- 3:36:36Hallis, John Mara, George Hallis.
- 3:36:38All right, here's here's my list.
- 3:36:40John Mara. John Mara Here is my.
- 3:36:44Here's my list, Paul. Brown.
- 3:36:48Al Davis. Wellington Mara, Dan Rooney,
- 3:36:51Eddie Departolo and then Robert Kraft.
- 3:36:55That's that's my list right over here.
- 3:36:57Yeah. Paul Brown probably would be my
- 3:36:58third, like after Rooney and Davis, and then I would say
- 3:37:02Jerry Jones. So, all right, well.
- 3:37:06Errol, guess what that means? You are king of the hill and you
- 3:37:12get to regain your crown. I will say this, I I would have
- 3:37:15went well into Mara and Dan Rooney off the bat every single
- 3:37:18time because I think they changed the game.
- 3:37:21Yeah, that's why you won. It was, it wasn't fair.
- 3:37:23Even if you put Jerry Jones up against one of the two of them,
- 3:37:26you can't. I'm going to go with both of
- 3:37:28those guys. They changed the game.
- 3:37:29They really did. And they were the voices of
- 3:37:32reason when it came to the NFL. And when all the owners were
- 3:37:35sitting there in a round table and they were making decisions,
- 3:37:37those two guys spoke and everybody listened.
- 3:37:41So that's why I picked those two guys.
- 3:37:43And I've heard stories, but I've been around owners and stuff
- 3:37:47like that over the years and they say that these guys are the
- 3:37:49best. John Mayer, his son, asshole.
- 3:37:52Just so you don't like him. I I, I didn't like him.
- 3:37:56Remember when we met him at the Tom Coffin dinner?
- 3:37:58I didn't like him. I I didn't like his attitude.
- 3:38:01I didn't like how he was acting. So I, I wasn't Tish was nice.
- 3:38:05Yeah, Tish was very nice. He, he was really cool.
- 3:38:08He seemed like he was very interactive at once, I thought,
- 3:38:11I thought Tish was really, really cool.
- 3:38:12And his family was very, very nice there too, so.
- 3:38:15I I like the Tish family. Anyways, that's it for a show
