Chiefs beat Ravens, Cowboys-Packers tie, Bad Bunny playing Super Bowl halftime show | 09.29 · The Right Time with Bomani Jones

• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the right time. A wave original.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: My name is Beaumont Jones. Thanks for listening wherever you
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: get your podcast. Thanks for watching us on YouTube. Subscribe, like,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: rate us, review us, give us five stars. You only
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: give us four stars. I'm inclined to believe you are
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: a hater. Obviously, we got a lot of NFL action
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: to talk about. We got a NFL Super Bowl halftime
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: to talk about. I wish I could repeat to you
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: the text that Elle Duncan sent me Sunday morning when
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: I said that it must have been a good day
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: to be her husband after Vanderbilt won and Georgia lost.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: And boy, there was a little bit of tension in
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: that household. Good gracious. But anyway, we had a panic
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: bowl on Sunday. The panic bowl was at Arrowhead Stadium.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: It was the Ravens and the Chiefs. And I think
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: that this is pretty fair to say, even about the Chiefs,
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: who obviously would be the team least inclined to panic
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: out of any team in the NFL. That was a
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: panic bowl. That is too. Excellent teams are teams that
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: we came into this year thinking of as probably being excellent.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: Two teams with excellent quarterbacks, right? With multiple time MVPs
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: at quarterback, both of whom went into that game with
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: a one and two record. Like this was kind of
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: sort of must win. Now, I would contend that actually
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: going into the game, it was a bit more of
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: a must win for the Chiefs. than it was a
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: must-win for the Ravens. The reason I would say that
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: it was more of a must-win for the Chiefs than
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: it was for the Ravens is that the Chiefs are
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: in a very good division, right? I think I would
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: stop short of saying excellent because the Raiders, right? But
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: they are in a very good division. The Ravens, I mean...
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Are you really believing in the Steelers right now? Like,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: are you sure about the Steelers? Are you positive about
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: the Steelers? Because I'm not positive about the Steelers, right?
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Then after that, it's the Bengals who, you know, we
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: had real questions about them. And that was before Joe
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Burrow got hurt. And then it's the Cleveland Browns who, man, wow.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: I didn't realize, Ryan, just how bad the Saints and
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: the Titans were until I realized how much worse their
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: point differential was than the Browns.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: Still throwing out Joe Flacco.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: They are still throwing out Joe Flacco. What's so funny
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: about them is if you don't root for them, it
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: really doesn't matter at all who plays quarterback. Like none
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: of that is going to change the end result. And
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: by the way, since the last time we talked about
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Shador on this show, is that when he said the
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: thing about he'd be watching the league and seeing half
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: of them cats and knowing that he could play? And
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: it's just like, stop.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: Don't.
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: Don't.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Don't do that. He handled the before this process so well.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: And he wants to see it. And watching Joe Flacco
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: is breaking.
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: But also, to be fair to him, and I think
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: this is a very important point, I, too, think that
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: I can do that. Like, at least Shador was nice
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: enough to say that he was looking at the rest
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: of the league.
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: Correct.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: Not his own locker room. He wasn't talking about, you know,
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: when he watches the rest of the league, when he
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: watches film of the Browns. Yes, the rest of the
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: league is also in these games, but directly in front
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: of him It's Joe Flacco, because I guarantee you this,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Dilley Gabriel's mama is telling everybody that her son can
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: play right now in those games. I guess Kenny Pickett
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: don't play for them no more, but he looking at
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: Joe Flacco like, I don't really understand why I'm over
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: here behind Geno, who was cheat in this last game.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: But anyway, back to the Ravens, who also were looking cheats.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Point differential is a thing now. That I think really
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: matters the farther along you go in the season. Like
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: I think really at the midpoint of a season, it
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: matters the most in terms of being a measure of
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: how good your team is. It starts mattering a bit
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: less at the end of the season. And I only
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: say that then because the injury situation starts flipping up
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: and more teams got more people banged up. And the
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: team that you have at the end of the year
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: becomes less reflective of the team that you've had through
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: the duration of the sample over which you collect the
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: point differential. You see what I mean? What the team
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: is in weeks, call it 12, is better connected to
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: that total in many cases than what the team is
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: in week 17 because the team that has week 17
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: got a lot more people in traction and shit. But
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: the Ravens right now have a point differential of negative two.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: That's not bad. That's kind of crazy for a team
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: that is one in three. This game against the Chiefs,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: they got smacked. Those other two losses obviously were close ones.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: And also to be fair to them, the three teams
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: that they've lost to are probably fairly good, right? We
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: still don't know how good the Chiefs are, though credit
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: to them on this. Number one, They looked like they
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: had the confidence and they were going long. Anyway, I
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: guess we saw this in some previous games too, but
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: they are going for chunks. It's not just the nickel
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: and dime show that it often feels like. They're clearly trying.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Mahomes hasn't been as good on the default as you like,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: but they're going for chunks. And two, and I think
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: this part is important, Taequann Thornton, whose name at this
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: point in my old ass life sounds like he could
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: be one of several wide receivers and defensive backs in
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: the NFL. I don't know where he went to college.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: I don't know any particular details about him. I will
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: look this up them up as we speak. However, he
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: appears to be good and he appears to be good
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: in a way that I think for the rest of
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: the season for the Chiefs. Worthy came back and that
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: for me, at least, is as good as I feel
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: like I've seen Xavier Worthy look. in the NFL right
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: so he's back Thornton is able to go long and
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: do those things and then at some point Rasheed Rice
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: is going to be back at which point just throwing
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: this out there they could be kind of terrified um
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: holy smokes uh did you know Ryan, that Tyquan Thornton
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: ran a 4-2-1 unofficial 40 at the Combine in 2022?
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: I did not. I just remembered that he went to Baylor.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: So he's very one of those.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you this. That boy went to
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Baylor and he is from Miami. And I am saying
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: that to say to you, there's a story. I don't
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: know what exactly that story is, but for those two
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: entities to come together with all those miles in between.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: Them, Yeah, the Miami to Waco pipeline isn't exactly.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Not strong, not strong, not strong, not strong. There's a, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: There's a story there. But anyway, that boy can burn.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: It appears that maybe he's been good all along and
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: we just didn't know it because he had been playing
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: for the modern incarnation of the New England Patriots. Just
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: throwing it out there. But the Chiefs, the Chiefs may
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: be better than it appeared. They could be a team
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: that is putting it all together. Meanwhile, back to the Ravens.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: I threw out the point about point differential to kind
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: of undercut the point somewhat when talking about the Ravens.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: It matters.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: But the question about them is why y'all stay losing
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: this game? And why do y'all stay looking like this
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: when you lose this game? My buddy Nick makes this point,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: and I think his inclination can be to point more
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: toward Lamar than is Dan is mine. But I do
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: think the first place we look is the guy whose
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: job Lamar saved seven years ago. And it's Harbaugh because
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: it's not just Lamar. Now, look, fairness to the Ravens. Also,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: that defense is looking like Afghanistan. You know what I'm saying?
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: Bombed out and depleted. They are down, not just guys,
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: but like good players. Like they've got issues on defense
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: that aren't really anybody's fault. They also may have some
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: issues that are people's fault, like what exactly our man
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: Zach Orr is over there doing, right? But too often
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: in games of this consequence or against teams of this
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: quality who are not the Cincinnati Bengals, whose asses they
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: consistently whoop, It looks a lot like this or it
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: gets to the end and then it gets back to
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: looking like this. And to me, the answer to that
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: question is probably you need to go talk to the
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: coach and see what is going on in that situation.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: I will tell you another funny story with my buddy Nick.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: There were two games that were on yesterday. We'll talk
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: more about one of them later. But it was the
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: Eagles and the Bucks with a day slate and the
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: Ravens and the Chiefs were in the night in the
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: four o'clock joint. And I decided to myself that that
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: was not a good day to go to Nick's house
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: to watch football. Number one, he's heavily invested in Baker
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: Mayfield and Baker Mayfield went to Oklahoma. So like, you know,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: I don't really be getting down with that. And I'm
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: still not sold. But anyway, then it was the Ravens
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: and the Chiefs. And I had a realization when the
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Ravens played the Detroit Lions on Monday night. And in
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: case you're curious, the Detroit Lions have the highest point
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: differential in the NFL. Did you note that?
• 9:48
  Speaker 6: Anyway, I'm watching the game and I realize that I
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: had gotten back to this game of being a fan,
• 10:03
  Speaker 6: and it's kind of new to me.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: Because I divorced myself after I got myself off that
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcon narcotic. So I hadn't been a fan in
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: a long time. And I looked up and I realized
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: that being a fan, they required me to do something
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: that I generally ain't about doing. I generally kind of
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: prefer not to do. And in fact, what I absolutely
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: don't do, which is I was in a position where
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: I had to root against Lamar Jackson. I just don't
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: like doing that. I don't at all. But what I
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: really wasn't feeling like, even with one of my very
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: good friends, I can't be over there sitting next to
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: this white man that is vehemently rooting against Lamar Jackson.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: And look, look, look, look, look, you got to understand something.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: We're talking about Nick here. My brother didn't know that
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: Nick was white until sometime in the year 2018. And
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: when I told him, he didn't believe. You know what
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: I'm saying? Like, a lot of y'all be out here
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: extending invites to the cookout. You sound ridiculous. But in
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: this particular case, cookout might be at Nick's house. So
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: I don't want y'all to think that I'm casting any
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: aspersions upon him with what I'm saying. Because I ain't
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: worried about that at all when it comes to Nick.
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: He's just a really big fan of the Kansas City Chiefs.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: But especially now that he got that long hair, I
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: just couldn't be sitting next to this white man.
• 11:24
  Speaker 7: Viciously rooting against Lamar Jackson. Like, you know, I ain't
• 11:27
  Speaker 7: that far in my journey. It don't feel right. Me
• 11:30
  Speaker 7: and Dominique talk about this all the time. We got
• 11:32
  Speaker 7: enough black quarterbacks now that I ain't got a ride
• 11:34
  Speaker 7: for all of them.
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: We ain't got to do that. Shout out to you,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: Tony Banks. My pops still like you. You know what
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: I'm saying? But we ain't got to live like that
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: no more. That wasn't going to feel right. I couldn't
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: be in that place.
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: And it would have been extra bad because Lamar was
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: out there doing exactly what Nick be saying he do.
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: Allegations were not being beaten, right? It's all there for them.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: And what is troubling, or would be troubling to me,
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: if I were a Ravens fan, I am not a
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: Ravens fan, just to be clear. I'm just not in
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: the business of rooting against Lamar Jackson. I ain't even
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: got to root for him all the time. I can't
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: be rooting for him. No, no, no, no, no. That's
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: what me and L was talking about last show. He
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: be meeting us. But anyway, I don't know what the
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Ravens can do in the course of the season that
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: will alleviate the skepticism that I think that they have
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: earned about the vaunted games that matter place, right? And
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: I tend to be, I try to be careful about
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: talking about, you know, oh, they can't win big games
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: because what happens when somebody says that you can't win
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: big games is that the games that you win by
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: definition then can't be big. So again, for example, We
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: don't say that Joe Burrow can't win big games, but
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Joe Burrow can't win games against Lamar Jackson, using those
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: terms in the way that y'all dumbasses be using them,
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: like quarterbacks or whole teams, right? We don't say that
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: about Burrow. Now, in part, obviously, it's because he went
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl, but we pick and choose which
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: of the big games matter. College football, James Franklin is
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: the one who is dealing with that. Like, I feel
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: like James Franklin has gotten him boys to a Rose
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: Bowl and won a Big Ten championship. feel like that
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: probably involved winning a big game. But you'd have lost
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: enough of the other ones that you're just the guy
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: that can't win a big game, right? Now, with Franklin,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: in the ones that I've watched at least, I don't
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: see a great through line as to what happens or
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: how it goes. With the Ravens, the through line seems
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: pretty simple, man. They seem to go out there tight.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: Like, they.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: They seem to go out there, shook up, playing these games,
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: which is on one level wild because so many of
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: their good players have been in the league so long
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: at this point. But I also think, like, Ray Lewis
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: does not play for this team. Ed Reed does not
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: play for this team. Terrell Suggs does not play for
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: this team. Peter Bulwer does not play for this team.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: The point that I'm making when I say that, because
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: obviously they're all old. They don't play for this team.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: But.
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: This isn't a collection of dudes that have been there before.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: It's just not. You know, they get some guys that
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: have been there at different points, like Kyle Van Noy,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: for example. But this isn't a bunch of guys who
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: have done this before. I don't know what it is
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: about them. I don't know if it really is directly
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: to blame on the coach. That's just the place to look.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: But one in three for them doesn't feel like the
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: season's over. just because of how close a lot of
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: these games have been, it doesn't feel like the season's over.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: They're going to have the best player on the field
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: probably for the rest of the games they play this season.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: It doesn't feel like the season's over. The question is
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: whether or not it matters if the season's over. If
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: when you got a, hey, when this or the season's
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: over game, And there's not just a distinct possibility, but
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: a likelihood, preponderance of evidence, perhaps, that this is the
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: way that you're going to wind up showing up, right?
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: And again, this against a team that be handing your
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: ass to you every time y'all play against them. Y'all
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: ain't even look salty about it, right? That's the stuff
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: that's easy for me to say from a distance. I
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: fully understand. Forgive me if I'm being that guy. What guy?
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: That guy. What guy? That guy. Forgive me if I'm
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: doing that. But it can't keep being like that for
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: them on the other side if the Chiefs can string
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: a couple of these together everybody in the AFC is
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: going to be shook and we're going to be back
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: to thinking that they're the team that's going to win
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: the conference and the division a division that would be
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: their 10th straight it's just a little bit crazy All right, man,
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: we watched a few other games yesterday. Ryan, I don't
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: know how much of that Eagles-Bucks game that I told
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: you I didn't want to go to Nick's house to
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: watch that you got a chance to see. At first,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: my read on that game was it felt like watching, because,
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: you know, the Bucks are 3-0 going in, but they
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: had all these nail-biter wins against teams that aren't good.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: And a lot of injuries are starting to mount up
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: for them.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: Yes, but it felt like It felt like one of
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: those years where, for whatever reason, Mississippi State is 7-0.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: And they play Alabama. Yes. Yes.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: That is exactly how it felt. It was just like, oh,
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: one of these teams is much better than the other.
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: And, like, with your little bitty quarterback running around and
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: trying to do whatever it takes to make it happen. Like,
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: that's what it felt like at first. And the Eagles
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: were just smacking and blocking kicks. You know, like it
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: just it looked like that. And then, of course, it
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: didn't end like that, did it? Right. The Bucs managed
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: to bring it around. They came back. And how long
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: are we cutting the Eagles slack for kind of sort
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: of barely getting it done? I mean, I think that's
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: the fair question at this point. Ryan, I watched it.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: I didn't notice it as this happened. But did you
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: say that Jalen Hurts did not complete a pass in
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: the second half?
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: Did not complete a pass in the second half.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: That's a Jimmy Garoppolo thing, right? Remember that playoff game
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: that the 49ers had where Garoppolo did not, I don't
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: even remember if they let him throw a pass.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: I think he threw eight passes the whole way.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: Come on, man. Like, y'all got to stop acting like
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: the skepticism. How you going to act like this Southern
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: Raw with me being skeptical of him when he got
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: their head coached? feel the exact same way. You got A.J.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: Brown talking about you just got to shrug your shoulder.
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: Don't make a scene. Just shrug your shoulder. You just
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: made a scene. For those of you who don't know
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: what I'm talking about, after the game.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: Can I read the quote?
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: Yes, please.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: Hold on.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: Just so people know. A.J. Green, after the game, posted
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: the following in a screenshot.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: If you are not welcomed, not listened to, quietly withdraw.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: Don't make a scene. Shrug your shoulders and be on
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: your way.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: I believe that A.J. Green is married and I ache
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: for that woman because this is the most passive aggressive
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: man on planet Earth.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: I love you did the call of AJ Green instead
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: of AJ Brown. Oh, my bad.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: My bad. AJ Green, I apologize to you because there
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: are few traits I dislike more than passive aggression. AJ Brown, oh,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: nothing's wrong. See, the old nothing's wrong ass dude.
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: Why would you think anything's wrong?
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: Right, right, right, right.
• 18:55
  Speaker 8: No, no.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: You know, what's wrong is that you keep asking me
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: what's wrong.
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: I wasn't angry, but now I'm starting to get angry.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: There we go. This is what we've got here. I
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: can't believe this. But at the same time, to be
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: fair to him, it's one thing where the receiver's not
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: getting the ball and he's upset. It's got to be
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: extra tough when you're not getting the ball and there's
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: clearly a problem. But you're winning. So nobody wants to
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: hear what you have to say. Nobody does. That's where A.J.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: Brown is in dealing with whatever it is with the Eagles.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: But you can't win for real like this. Like, you
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: tell me if I'm wrong. But I don't– like, this
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: is not a– this is not a sustainable situation.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: You're not going to score 31 points with 200 yards
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: of offense every week.
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: No.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: That is– that is not going to be what the
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: thing is. Like this is, this is what the Chiefs,
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: this feels like what the Chiefs were last year, right?
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: Just getting it done a little bit. Nickel and diamond here.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: They're so talented and they are champions. So there's an
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: element of find a way to win, but that is
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: not a sustainable strategy.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: What do they want now? Twenty one. Twenty of twenty
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: one straight.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: Twenty or twenty one. Good for you guys. You clearly
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: have something that's going, but you can't feel good about this.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: And clearly, A.J. Brown does not feel good about this.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: Speaking of not feeling good about something, by the way,
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: I just saw this ride. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: three and one after that close loss to the Eagles
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: and their point differential is now zero. Just throwing it
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: out there that they're kind of scraping and getting by too.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: But speaking of not feeling good, I'll never forget something once.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: It was a different era in time. And so some
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: of you young people need to understand that people would
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: say things like this on television. but there was a year.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: I can't remember which season it was, but this is
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: back when there were ties in college football because it
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: wasn't always overtime. So in my lifetime games would end
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: in ties and Michigan had a season where I believe
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: their record was eight Oh, and three, it's like eight wins,
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: no losses in three ties. But anyway, Lee Corso was
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: asked about how it felt to get the tie and
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: whether that, you know, would be disappointing. And, um, Lee
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: Corso said, and I quote, because this used to be
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: a line here, he says, a tie is like kissing
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: your sister, but a loss is like kissing your brother. Anyway,
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: no brothers were kissed in Jerry World where there was
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: a tie game. And I, okay, I normally don't do this,
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: but I watched the 930 game, the game from Ireland.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: with the Steelers. By the way, their backup quarterback guy
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: jumped in the streets of Dublin the night before the game.
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: This guy jumped and robbed. And I'm trying to figure
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: out if they started off to rob him and then
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: decided to jump him, or started off to jump him
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: and then decided to rob him. Anyway, I'm saying I
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: watched the 930 game. I watched games all the way
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: through the day. Tried to sneak a little nap action
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: when I could, but I watched a lot of football.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: And I was struggling real hard to watch that game
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: with the Cowboys and the Packers. And I have to say,
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: I found the tenor of the broadcast to just be messy.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? Like, I understand that the
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: intrigue or the allure of this game was Micah Parsons
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: coming back to play against Dallas. But I just felt
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: like the whole game, all they was doing was instigating.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: And every time it felt like Micah Parsons had a
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: run on the quarterback, they was getting excited like Dak
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: was the one that traded him. You know what I'm saying?
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: By the way, shout out to you, Dak Prescott, because
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: he out here throwing the eeny, meeny, miny ammo. He
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: is getting it done. He looked excellent in that game.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: And I was texting with Dominique about it, who made
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: the point that he's been excellent all year. But he
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: looked really, really good in this game. And also a
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: measure of credit to the Cowboys in the sense that
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: they got a lot of good players that they got,
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: you know, Like low in the draft, like dudes with
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: names that you don't know about until they play for
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys. Like Turpin is a good example of that. Right.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: They out there, you know, they still.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: They still draft.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, they draft very well. And look, the Make-A-Wish
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: Foundation was back out there passing out dreams again in
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: this game. Don't get me wrong. The point I wanted
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: to make was and I got to feel like I
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: feel like everybody else did. My old ass worked really hard.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: And I believe that game went till midnight, which does
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: not typically happen on Sunday night football. I was up
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: all that time, sweating out a field goal to tie
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: the game. That was it. To tie the game. We
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: got to get back to the old rules, baby. There
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: was nothing wrong with sudden death over time. Everybody wanted overtime,
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: to be fair. Josh Allen didn't even get to touch
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: the ball. Then he should have won the game the
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: other place. I would be okay if the tiebreaker was
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: a goddamn coin flip. It's a tiebreaker. Everybody had their
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: chance to win. Instead, we running out a whole nother quarter?
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: What are you talking about? No, first score wins, as
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: it was, as it should be. first score wins. That's
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: what it always should have been. I was so grumpy
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: that I was so tired and all we got out
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: of it was a tie. That was it. A tie.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: I hated that.
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: I hated that.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: But anyway, I also have to say that Michael Parsons
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: coming back to play against the Cowboys really didn't prove
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: to be as compelling as I thought it might be.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: The revenge game, right, I believe, is really only a
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: truly interesting topic if it's a quarterback. Otherwise, you're just
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: one of 11 guys.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's very hard to get... Unless you're Lawrence Taylor
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: out there, it's really hard to get the true full
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: pass rush revenge game special. It's also more of a
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: basketball game topic than a football game topic.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: I think that's fair, right? Maybe it's got some hockey
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: in it or you could be a pitcher. You can
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: go out here and throw a no-hitter. I think with baseball,
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: it's less like a revenge game than just a return.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: I remember when Darryl Strawberry came back to Shea Stadium
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: for the first time and they gave him a standing boo.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: People stood up and clapped and booed. at the same time, right?
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: Like that was the middle ground that they had established
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: when it came to that. But yeah, that didn't, it
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: didn't do it for me as a television show. as
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: I thought it would. I tell you, a television show,
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: we might need to start watching, though. Watching the Titans
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: press conferences after games. Number one, the head coach, who
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: all of us think stinks, is starting to get a
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: little salty with the questions. But, you know, by the way,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: shout out to Malik Neighbors. It looks like he tore
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: his ACL in the game on Sunday. That's a terrible
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: thing to hear. And we have been talking about how
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: you know it's bad when the rookies come in salty, right?
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: Like when the rookies have already had enough of it.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: And neighbors was like that as a rookie but now
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: he's in his second year um cam ward the number
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: one overall pick who and what i've seen has looked
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: pretty good so you can play yes but i don't
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: know who else on that team looks like they could
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: play they look bad and they just go out here
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: like They just getting their asses kicked. They lost to
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: the Rams 33-19. They lost to the Colts 41-20. Those
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: two were at the crib, by the way. Then they
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: went to Houston and lost 26 to nothing. And please understand,
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: the ownership group of the Tennessee Titans wants nothing less
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: than to go to Houston and get shut out like
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: they did. A team that was 0-3 coming into that game, right?
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: And so here is Cam Ward after the game being
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: asked about how the team played.
• 27:22
  Speaker 9: Um, everything from interception to a penalty to an incompletion
• 27:29
  Speaker 9: by me, a bad ball. Um, and then once we
• 27:33
  Speaker 9: pass the 50, we just not continuing the drive. Um, so,
• 27:37
  Speaker 9: I mean, if we keeping a buck right now, we ass. So,
• 27:40
  Speaker 9: we over for it. We have, at this point, we
• 27:42
  Speaker 9: got nothing to lose. We dropped a quarter of our
• 27:44
  Speaker 9: fucking game.
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: If we're keeping it a buck. Now, we got another
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: one where I couldn't even tell what he was asked about,
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: but this was his answer.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: They think you played personally.
• 27:53
  Speaker 10: Ass.
• 27:53
  Speaker 9: Ass.
• 27:55
  Speaker 4: Mm-hmm.
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: It was asked about how he thought he played personally.
• 27:59
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: Ass, but what killed me was at the end.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: Mm-hmm. I love how he slips in the... He starts
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: in quarterback talk, just can't help himself.
• 28:09
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: And then goes back right to it. But, like, you
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: can tell it's the true honesty because... he like breaks
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: character for like exactly eight seconds and he says you.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: Know we're ass can't believe they're this sorry look man
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: this dude was a no-star recruit from west columbia texas
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: he went to incarnate word he went to washington state
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: and then he went to miami he cannot believe how
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: terrible this team is that he currently plays for just
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: shocks him at every turn it I always say nothing's
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: worse than being on a bad baseball team, but at
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: least they don't hit you in baseball, right? Like being
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: on a bad baseball team, you got to do this
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: shit 160 some times a year. At least they don't
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: hit you, right? Like football, they hit you while you're
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: being terrible. That's, that's rough. We also had a fun thing.
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: I didn't see this during the week, Ryan. So I
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: was unaware that at his press availability, Robert Sala apparently,
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: had told people, or had said that Liam Cohen, the
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: coach of the Bucs, was very good. No, sorry, he's
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: now the coach of the Jaguars. He was officer coordinator
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: of the Bucs last year. But that he was very
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: good at legally stealing signs. And if you're not familiar
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: with Liam Cohen, he's the dork, well, at least he
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: looked like a dork at the press conference. Duval, remember that?
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: And so, Sala tried to shake his hand after the game.
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: The Jaguars won, by the way. They looked good, too.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: They won that game, and Sala tried to go dab
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: him up, and Cohen walked away from him, and then
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: walked away and told him to keep his name out
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: his mouth. Did you see, by the way, that Sala
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: told him that he would end his life?
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: Again, we were talking about this before the show. Talk
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: about a stay-ready all-star.
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I would not
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: want to fight Robert Sala under any circumstance whatsoever. Oh,
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: he told him, these are quotes, okay? I was trying
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: to compliment your ass. I will fuck your world up.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: You don't want to fuck with me. I will fucking
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: end your fucking life.
• 30:30
  Speaker 11: Whoa.
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: I got it.
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: Yo.
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all right.
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: That is amazing. What an amazing thing to say. And
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: by the way, Ryan, this is my question. If you
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: are walking away and you hear him say that, on
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: one level, you got to stop and turn around, but
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: on another, you can't, right?
• 30:55
  Speaker 10: Right.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: No, you gotta keep walking. Especially if you turn around
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: and there's a Robert Sala behind you.
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: Well, it is also very clear that Robert Sala is
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: a little bit more invested in this than perhaps I was. Although,
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: I think Liam Cohen.
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: Apparently more invested than Liam Cohen is because he kept walking.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: Well, I was thinking, well, Cohen thought he was doing something. Man,
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: keep your name out of my mouth. He really thought
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: he was. And then he found out. He was not.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: He was not.
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: Last thing before we go into this break, I'll throw
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: this out here. Jackson Dart did not look much better
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: than Russell Wilson to me in what I saw in
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: that game. Although he did get a Russian touchdown and
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: he looked like he did the Theo Huxtable touchdown dance.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: I have a lot of questions about our friend from Utah.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: He did a year at USC and then he went
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: to Ole Miss. And do his parents even recognize him?
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: Like he out here doing them dances. He got that
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: expensive chain on. And my buddy Shannon, I was trying,
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: I meant to mention this, but I got distracted. My
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: buddy Shannon was like, who on the defense will try
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: to take his chain? And I just thought about this.
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: If these cats was wearing chains like this back when
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: football was a little bit less of a civil game.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: I feel like it would be at least one player
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: whose whole identity, it would be like a wrestling character.
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: In fact, somebody could still do this right now. You
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: make yourself a chain snatcher. Like, you need a cat
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: out there. Like, I bet you if these cats was
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: wearing these chains out there in the days of Dick Buckets,
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: I don't even want to think about what he would
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: call them people, but he would definitely be snatching them chains, right? Now,
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: I don't mean a chain snatcher like Aqib Tlaib, who
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: just really had a problem with that one man having
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: a chain snatcher. And that's the chain that he snatched.
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: And when he snatched the chain, he just threw it
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: on the ground. I'm talking about the chain snatcher, whoever
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: got a chain on around him, like really on some
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: like legit Devo. He coming and he's snatching your chain.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: And unlike to leave who snatched the dude's chain and
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: threw it on the ground. Nah, this motherfucker gonna take
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: your chain and go to the sideline and put it
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: in the bag with all the other chains that he
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: done snatched. And you ain't even really gonna do nothing
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: about it because you don't want no problems with the
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: chain snatcher. Like James Harrison, he could have been a
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: good person to be the chain snatcher. So I'm telling you, man,
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: if there's a cat out there that's bite it, bite it,
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: that's truly got it in his soul, you can go
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: out there and you can make yourself a chain snatcher.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: We need some more. Game ain't got no villains. Game
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: ain't got no real scary people. I mean, they scare me,
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: but you know what I'm saying. The game ain't really
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: got no real super duper scary dudes anymore. Somebody need
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: to come out there and make himself a chain snatcher.
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: But anyway, I made the point that he didn't really
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: look that much better, Jackson Dart, than Russell Wilson to
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: simply say, sometimes it's not about what it is, it's
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: about how it feels. And watching Russell Wilson be bad,
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: it felt demoralizing. Watching Jackson Dart be bad, it feels
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: like it could be better. Even if it's the same.

• 35:27
  Speaker 2: get to some stories from the weekend. Turns out Bad
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: Bunny will be headlining the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: in San Francisco. Bo, what were your thoughts?
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: Okay, so I don't speak enough Spanish yet to be
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: out here listening to Bad Bunny and understanding what's going on.
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: I am always impressed by the fact that people can
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: go tour in these other countries where people don't even
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: speak their language and they be doing it all and
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: knowing all the words. Now, part of it, of course,
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: is that these other people are more sophisticated than we
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: are in the United States. But on the other hand,
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: they are able to like find a way to appreciate,
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: you know, languages that they don't understand. That's wild to
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: me because when people start speaking languages around me that
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: I don't understand, I be getting nervous trying to figure
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: out what the word for black is. Just in case.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? I don't care if we
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: talk about the nail shop, the Bronx, any of them places, man.
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: That's how it goes. So anyway, I don't know enough
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: of the language to say that I really understand it
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: can get down like with his music. It's not my speed,
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: but I know a superstar when I see one. And
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: that is 100% a superstar. So I think it's really
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: cool that he is doing the Super Bowl in part
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: because I think that very often Our concepts of race
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: and ethnicity and all of those things in this country
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: is binary. We think in the context of black and
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: white and we just forget our Latino brothers and sisters
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: are here in a lot of those discussions. Now, Latino
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: obviously is a very broad term, right? So I don't know.
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: I don't know how, for example, I don't know how
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: much Mexicans enjoy bad butt. I just literally do not know, right?
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: So I'm not saying that this is an act That
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: is for every Latino in America. I understand that there's
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: a measure of nuance there. However, I do think that
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: this is a choice for Latino, right? That is putting
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: them out front in terms of, you know, who you
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: are hoping to primarily entertain with this show. This is
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: much different than Shakira and Jennifer Lopez in Miami. That's
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: kind of a little something for everybody. If you know me.
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: Just playing.
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: But anyway.
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: This is different than that. So I thought it was
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: kind of cool that they did that. I will also say,
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: I looked this up before we started the show. I
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: don't think people have noticed this boy. The last 20
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: years of Super Bowl halftime have been a little bit
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: of a race war. We have not had just regular
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: old white people headline the Super Bowl halftime show since
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: Maroon 5 in February of 2019. Since then, Shakira, Jennifer Lopez,
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: The Weeknd, Dr. Dre and them. I mean, Eminem was
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: part of it, but you know what I mean. Rihanna, Usher,
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: Kendrick Lamar, and now Bad Bunny. Jay-Z done took it back, boy. Okay,
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: but I did not notice this about the decade before.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: The decade before... Beyonce played at the Superdome in February, 2013.
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: That's the Super Bowl where the lights went out. That's
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: also that Super Bowl where Beyonce like licked her finger
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: and did a little hip, woo, good gracious. Anyway, after that,
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: Bruno Mars, a little something for everybody. But then Katy Perry, Coldplay,
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: Lady Gaga, Justin Timberlake, and Maroon 5. They started off
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: the decade with The Who. Hell, after that, it was
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: the Black Eyed Peas. I don't know who that was for,
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: but it damn sure wasn't for me. But anyway, yeah.
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: So shout out, man. This is a cool little situation.
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: They got Bad Bunny out there. And hopefully by the
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: time that comes around, I'll know what the hell he
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: be out there talking about.
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: All right, let's look to college football this past weekend.
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: Alabama beat Georgia 24-21. Oregon beat Penn State in double overtime.
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: Ole Miss beat LSU 24-19. Bo, to you, what was
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: the most shocking result?
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: I don't know if any of them were shocking.
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: Know what?
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: I think it would be fair to say for me
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: that the Alabama Georgia game, I don't know if it
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: was shocking, but Alabama guys, they still got dudes. Right.
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: Like Georgia doesn't have dudes in the same way. And
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: even Alabama doesn't have dudes in the same way. But
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: I was the talent level at Alabama. I looked at
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: it and you know what it made me think? Oh, buddy,
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: Kalen DeBoer, this win is actually going to make your
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: life harder. Not easier because now you've shown that you
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: could do it.
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: So if you go out here and lose to Vanderbilt again,
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: Vanderbilt smoked somebody else over the weekend. That's what we
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: were talking about with Ellen and her husband. But, yeah, Georgia,
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: this is, it is, I think it becomes interesting. We
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: talked about this with Elle. They've got a nemesis that
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: they just can't get over. Just can't. Actually, who am
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: I kidding? This Ole Miss thing, like, there's a number
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: of reasons that I can never get on board with
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: them ever under any circumstance whatsoever, right? Lane is supposed
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: to lose those games. Like, I don't, I don't like
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: this thing and where we're supposed to take them seriously.
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: I don't. I don't.
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: Is it the old miss of it or the lane
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: of it to you?
• 40:47
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: Yes. No, this is the old miss of it that
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: does legitimately bother me. And I don't think we talk
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: about this enough. Obviously, Lane Kiffin understands that being old
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: miss has some. It's a bit fraught. in terms of
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: your attempts to recruit and the likes, right? So I remember-
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: Some obstacles. Yeah, so their slogan used to be, I
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: don't know if they still do it, but like the
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: hashtag was come to the SIP, right? And so it's
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: laying on the sideline in a hoodie with the state
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: of Mississippi on it. And it's the SIP, the SIP,
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: the SIP. Nah, either y'all gonna be the Ole Miss
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: Rebels or you're not. You don't get to pretend that
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: this isn't what it is when you're trying to trick
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: the black people into coming to your school. Right. If
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: you want to be the Ole Miss Rebels, do that
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: shit all the time. Put on your loser, your great
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: loser suits. Right. Walk around with muskets or whatever it is.
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: You don't get to act like that's not who you
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: want to be when it's time for you to get players.
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: Be it all the time or don't be it ever.
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: So, yeah. Yeah.
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: I just I guess the shock is people really be
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: sending their kids to go to school. I just cannot
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: imagine telling my dad, I think I want to go
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: to Ole Miss. I can't. I could tell him I
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: was going to Duke first. By the way, how you
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: feeling about Ryan Kelly? You, LSU, LSU guys, how do you?
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: It's going to be a long, it's going to be
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: a long, it's going to be a long, it's been
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: a long journey. It's going to keep being a long journey.
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: Hey man, you can't, even if you eventually win a
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: national championship, it can't be fun when you actively hate
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: your coach, because you're not happy for him when any
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: of this happens, like you can't do that.
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: It is, it, it really is amazing because it is
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: so unlikable in so many ways that he plays an
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: unlikable style of football. They, they run an unlikable offense
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: and he's an unlikable person. So it is a, is
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: quite an unlikable experience.
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: Our guy, Van Lathan, hit Brian Kelly with an all-time
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: haymaker on the Ranger tailgate. And he says, everybody says
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: that any coach can win at Ole Miss. And coaches
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: win at Ole Miss. The last three have won there. Yeah, LSU, yeah, sorry. LSU. Saban,
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: Les Miles, and Ogeron. But they're wrong. Men win at LSU.
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: Damn!
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: Men win national championships at LSU. LSU, just so everybody understands,
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: is 4-1.
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: 4-1, 13th ranked team in the country, and this is
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: how the fan base feels.
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: Nobody's happy.
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: Nobody's happy. Alright, so speaking of shocking things, Indiana's quarterback,
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: they might have one of the best quarterbacks in the country.
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: He spoke after their win, after taking an intentional safety.
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: Take a listen. Yeah, there was, I mean, whatever it
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: takes to win the game. So, coach said, hey, take
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: a safety, run to the back of the.
• 44:01
  Speaker 9: End zone, and.
• 44:11
  Speaker 4: I didn't ever want to put our team in jeopardy
• 44:13
  Speaker 4: where maybe if I slid, you know, with one second left,
• 44:16
  Speaker 4: there could be some type of, you know, maybe some
• 44:19
  Speaker 4: quirk that would be called and we'd have to punt
• 44:20
  Speaker 4: it or do something on fourth down.
• 44:23
  Speaker 12: So, I just wanted to get out of the safety.
• 44:25
  Speaker 12: I know I probably, like, obviously shouldn't be saying this,
• 44:27
  Speaker 12: but I know I probably... cook people's spreads and stuff
• 44:30
  Speaker 12: like that. And I really apologize for that. However, in
• 44:34
  Speaker 12: that moment, my goal was to win the game. At
• 44:37
  Speaker 12: that point, I 0-0.
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: Number one, I shouldn't be saying this.
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: Stop.
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: Right there. Right there. Right there. Right there. You had
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: a great out. That's what we call it.
• 44:45
  Speaker 10: Out.
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: You had an out. Right there.
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: Don't.
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: You remember when... Alabama was playing against Oklahoma when Kyler
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: Murray was there in a semifinal game and Quentin Williams
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: was about to start talking about Kyler Murray and caught
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: himself in the middle and was.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: Like, uh-uh.
• 45:00
  Speaker 3: Uh-uh.
• 45:01
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: It was before the game. He started shaking his head.
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: He realized he was about to mess up the money
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: and was like, no, no, no. We're not doing that.
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you, all you boys, don't make any acknowledgement
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: to any of the gambling in public ever. I'm assuming
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: that he knows about this because they was blowing up
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: his mentions. Don't. Guys, leave it be. And don't don't
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: don't acknowledge these people. You can't give them anything. You
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: can't do that. Number one. Number two, bra on your horizons.
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: You keep talking about the people you messed it up for.
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: How about the people you made winners? Like everybody talks
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: about the bad beat. What about the good win? Right.
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: Like for somebody, them bad beats be like pennies from heaven.
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: You don't think about it like that, do you?
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: All right, moving over to the concerts, you know, people
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: have noticed throughout the country that concerts keep getting more
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: and more expensive. That doesn't seem to be a problem
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: to everyone, including the Live Nation CEO. Let's take a listen.
• 45:53
  Speaker 8: For you, music is a better business, though, than selling
• 45:55
  Speaker 8: tickets for sports, I assume.
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: Yes, 100%. Yeah, yeah.
• 45:59
  Speaker 10: I mean, you know, I think music has been underappreciated.
• 46:04
  Speaker 10: You know, I always joke, sports, it's like a badge
• 46:07
  Speaker 10: of honor to spend 70 grand for a Knicks courtside.
• 46:11
  Speaker 10: They beat me up if we charge $ 800 for Beyonce, right?
• 46:14
  Speaker 10: So it's a real, it's a very under, we have
• 46:17
  Speaker 10: a lot of runway left, right?
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: So when you read about.
• 46:19
  Speaker 8: The ticket prices going up, it's still average concert price
• 46:23
  Speaker 8: is $ 72. Try going to a Laker game for that,
• 46:26
  Speaker 8: and there's 80 of them or whatever the hell. The
• 46:28
  Speaker 8: concert is underpriced, has been for a long time.
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: Okay, this is the problem that cats like this have
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: in these moments. Because I will say that I thought
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: that he presented a pretty compelling argument. If you were
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: going to say that concert tickets are underpriced, okay? It
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: don't feel that way. You're not going to convince anybody
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: that they're underpriced. You can explain that you are providing
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: value at the number or whatever it is, right? But
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: you also need to understand this. There is no ticket
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: at any concert that is better than a courtside seat.
• 47:15
  Speaker 6: Of course.
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: And it is not a badge of honor. We talk
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: about those prices like they're crazy also. And do you
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: notice who sits for the courtside seats at those games?
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: It's only super duper rich people, right? We acknowledge the
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: courtside seat as being in this untouchable air of things.
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: The concert ticket is not that, right? And I'll say this,
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: me personally. I am good to put some bread on
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: a very good concert ticket. Maybe part of it is
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: because I live in New York City now or whatever,
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: but I've even found this for me in other places,
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: but My seats are creeping farther and farther back. And
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: it's because these tickets cost too much money. I mean,
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: the sports tickets, too. I was up there in the
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: nosebleeds at the U.S. Open for $ 300 for.
• 48:07
  Speaker 2: The third round. It is a very American concept to
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: talk like we talk about how expensive these tickets get
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: as these resale markets as they're a good thing.
• 48:20
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: Oh, like, oh, look, these tickets are selling for X
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: on the secondary market. That's an American. It's a very American. Yeah.
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: I would ask this man this where he says the
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: average price of a ticket is this and that I
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: die and everything else. Now, compare it is to Europe.
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: Where you don't have the resale game dominating as it
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: does here, you don't have all the fees. than everybody
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: because i was we talk about the average concert ticket
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: is 72 what are the fees on that is that
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: what it is after fees because there's no way in
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: the world that you're going to tell me the average
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: concert ticket right now after all the fees and everything
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: else is i.
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: Mean it is cheaper for the on these mega tourists
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: for people to fly to iceland or portugal or to
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: spain to go see you know these people are touring
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: internationally and for you know Beyonce's, the Coldplay's, obviously when
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: Taylor Swift's tours again. It's now cheaper to go abroad.
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: Including the ticket! In some cases.
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it is it has lost the plot and finally
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: the Jimmy Kimmel situation seems to have resolved going back
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: on the air on Tuesday even though Nexstar and Sinclair
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: local stations did not have him on the air, but
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: those local stations are now airing Late Night with Jimmy Kimmel. Though, obviously,
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: you know, this is not how we thought the situation
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: was going to resolve itself. How surprised were you that
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: this is what happened?
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: I did not... I didn't think that Kimmel would come back. Like,
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: my thought about immediately saying that it's over there was
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: I thought that Kimmel was going to receive all of
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: this as such a violation of trust. Like, how could
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: you ever feel comfortable? Going back on the air, me personally, right?
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: And being sincere in your work, knowing that they're not
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: going to back you up, even if you could justify
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: them not backing him up. I didn't think that there
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: would be any chance that he would come back. So
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: by the time we put that out, it was incorrect.
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: We had a good four hours.
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we had a good, I tell you, there was
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: never a moment where I might have been wrong, but
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: I didn't think I was going to be wrong that fast, right?
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: It never, that never dawned on me, but apparently part
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: of what happened was ABC reminded everybody, we've got football
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: and we're going to have the Super Bowl and you're
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: not going to get it.
• 50:35
  Speaker 10: Oh!
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: We're done.
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: Right. So maybe they feel like they did all they
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: had to do to convince the people that they wanted
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: to convince that they was on the right side. Right.
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: Like maybe they did what was necessary to convince on
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: that front.
• 50:48
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: I just don't. The question to me, and I guess
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: we'll see more on what the ultimate answer for this
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: is as we go, but is the real moral of
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: the story that they overplayed their hand? those who believe
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: that it was the place of the government to tell
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: a company to shut down something that they were doing.
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: And then it happens.
• 51:11
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: Did they overestimate how much pull they truly had on that? Now,
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: while I say that, on the other hand, it's looking
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: like they're throwing people in jail for not the greatest
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: reasons in the world. So maybe I need to be
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: worried a little bit less about Jimmy Kimmel than I
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: need to be worried about everybody else.
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: All right, the voicemail line's open. A lot of good ones.
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: Here's our first.
• 51:39
  Speaker 5: Hey, Bomani, long-time listener. I got out of church, checked
• 51:44
  Speaker 5: my notifications, and I saw that Sam Pittman has been
• 51:47
  Speaker 5: fired from Arkansas and that they have promoted Bobby Petrino
• 51:52
  Speaker 5: to interim head coach. And if you have not covered
• 51:56
  Speaker 5: this as a part of your morning segment, I will
• 51:59
  Speaker 5: be so disappointed. So, I'd love to hear you just
• 52:03
  Speaker 5: talk about one of the greatest scandals in sports history
• 52:06
  Speaker 5: for those younger that don't know about it. I think
• 52:09
  Speaker 5: our audience in the world would be better for it.
• 52:11
  Speaker 11: Thanks, man.
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: Have a good one.
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: So for those of you who don't know this, Bobby
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: Petrino is a legendarily sleazy sort of dude. And the
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: reputation for his sleaze started when He was an offensive
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: coordinator at this time for, okay, no. He had been
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator at Auburn, and then he went and
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: took the job at Louisville. And toward the end of
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: the 03 season, the Auburn Boosters, as is their want,
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: were getting a little bit anxious with Tommy Tuberville and
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: jumped on the plane to go holler at Bobby Petrino
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: about maybe taking the job while the job was still filled. Okay.
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: He worked that job at Louisville, was very good. When
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: it took the head coaching job with the Falcons, where
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: he thought his quarterback was going to be Michael Vick,
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: and instead his quarterback turned out to be assumed to
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: be a convicted felon, and his quarterback was actually Joey Harrington.
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: and it did not go well. He took the job
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: at Arkansas in the middle of the football season, didn't
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: say a word to anybody, and just left notes in
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: the players' lockers. He gets to Arkansas, where he does
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: an excellent job, and he was out one day riding
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: a motorcycle, and he was thrown from his motorcycle and
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: thrown into a ditch where he had broken bones in
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: his neck, among other things. The thing was, he was
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: on the motorcycle with a woman, who wasn't his wife,
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: who worked in the athletic department. And so he was
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: ultimately fired for having the improper relationship with the young lady.
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: But where it became interesting is Bobby Petrino was face
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: first in a ditch with broken bones in his neck
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: and immediately began to cook up a coverup for what
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: had happened and arrange for a phone call to be
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: made to his homeboy in the state troopers to come
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: and get him and take care of everything. And he
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: only got caught because a good Samaritan saw his motorcycle,
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: called it in, read off the license plate number, at
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: which point they figured out it was Bobby Petrino. But
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: in a ditch with a broken neck, he immediately began
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: to cook up lies. And it almost worked. Do you
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: realize what a dedicated liar you have to be in
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: that moment to where your first concern is not just
• 54:45
  Speaker 1: get somebody here as soon as possible. It's hold on.
• 54:49
  Speaker 2: Not just for me, for the person who also got
• 54:51
  Speaker 2: thrown off from the motorcycle as well.
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: From time to time, I forget that she was also
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: thrown off from the motorcycle. In fact, I'm assuming she
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: was okay. But, you know, there's different conspiracy theories that
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: he didn't get thrown off from the motorcycle. He actually
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: got beat up or whatever. No, no, no. when he
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: got thrown from this motorcycle. And he did the all-time
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: legendary press conference with the neck brace and the Sugar
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: Bowl cap to remind them that Bobby Petrino had gotten
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: them to the Sugar Bowl.
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: You know when you just have to lead with a
• 55:18
  Speaker 2: college football coach as sleazy? That's a really special character. Yes.
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: Now, the thing that I think has been interesting about him, though, was.
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: After he got fired at Arkansas, he got a job
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: coaching at Western Kentucky. Like he keeps like finding his
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: way back. But lately his new bag has been going
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: to these places where the coach is on the hot seat.
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: And so maybe he could slide his way in. So
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: like he went he went to Western Kentucky for a
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: year and then he went back to Louisville because as
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: much as people don't fuck with him, he is really
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: good at it. So we have to go get that
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: old thing back. Right. Arkansas. He went to when Jimbo
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: was on the hot seat at Texas A & M.
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: He took the OC job there because he thought he
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: could slide in. Didn't work. Peeps your day.
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: Um.
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: Then he gets back to Arkansas where Sam Pittman was
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: on the hot seat. And now Sam Pittman is gone
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: and he slides in as interim coach. And I know
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: he thinks that maybe, just maybe, he can get in
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: and he can keep this job. And he might.
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: It's certainly on the board.
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: Look, man, you give Bob Petrino enough money to get
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: some players and he can be a problem.
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: All right, here's our next one.
• 56:33
  Speaker 3: Bo man, what's going on? Big Tim from the DMV.
• 56:38
  Speaker 3: A couple of years ago, you and Spencer did an
• 56:42
  Speaker 3: episode where y'all basically did like a retrospective of like
• 56:47
  Speaker 3: Stevie Wonder. Like basically, hey, this is why Stevie Wonder
• 56:51
  Speaker 3: is amazing. And it's honestly one of my favorite episodes
• 56:55
  Speaker 3: that you've ever done. I know you're a Prince guy
• 56:59
  Speaker 3: just like I am. He is my favorite artist of
• 57:02
  Speaker 3: all time. So I guess my first question would be,
• 57:06
  Speaker 3: would you ever do one or can you do one
• 57:09
  Speaker 3: with Prince? That'd be, like, amazing. And then my second
• 57:14
  Speaker 3: question would be, is there, like, um a quintessential song
• 57:19
  Speaker 3: that like you go and say like i cool this
• 57:23
  Speaker 3: is the song that you play for someone if you're
• 57:26
  Speaker 3: trying to you know explain how amazing prince is um
• 57:31
  Speaker 3: like the one i always play is the door because
• 57:34
  Speaker 3: i feel like like nobody has ever explained love in
• 57:38
  Speaker 3: that way or whatever like just the way that he
• 57:40
  Speaker 3: explains it um that's the one that i'll explain be
• 57:43
  Speaker 3: like nah you can't get down with this i don't
• 57:45
  Speaker 3: know if you can get down Do you have one?
• 57:48
  Speaker 3: Appreciate it, man. Y'all have a good day.
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: Hey, man, I appreciate it. And I think the Stevie
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: Wonder episode of this podcast is the one that is
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: more people's number one than any other, right? Like if
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: they just have an episode that they can pull out
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: the air, it is that one. The thing about it was,
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: and why I haven't tried to redo that, is... What
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: really made that go was a very particular energy, excitement
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: and enthusiasm that we had in that moment in what
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: we were talking about. I don't know. It's an impossible
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: act to follow, right? Like, I don't know how to
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you can recreate it because it
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: wasn't really structured. And so when I look back on this, like, man,
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: I'd like to do something like that, perhaps with a
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: little bit of structure. And then with Prince, I'd be
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: out here for like four hours. trying to get it straight.
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: But I don't even think our, I don't even know
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: if our plan that show was to talk about Stevie
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: the whole time. Like I can't remember exactly how it
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: came together, but yeah, it was a hoot. It was
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: a whole lot of fun. And so, yes, I would
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: thought about doing similar things with similar artists. I think
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: I can go ahead and tell people this, Ryan, that
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: for 2026, we are planning on a series on the
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: rap albums of the greatest year in the history of rap.
• 59:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah. 1996.
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: And so we're going to we're going to put that together. But,
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: you know, we did the one for 94. We want
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: this to be a little different. And we learned what
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: we did the last time to make it a little structured.
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: and a little better. So similar things, yeah, have been
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: on my mind. Now, the Prince song to explain it
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: for me is tricky because Prince goes into like 18
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: different directions. What I would say, though, is I think
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: that Prince's greatest all-purpose song is Little Red Corvette. I
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: think that's the one that you're most likely to be
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: able to throw off to somebody, and they're going to
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: get it no matter what point they start on. The
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: most only Prince could do this is Too Soft. It's
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: When Doves Cry, which to me is just lights out,
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: but I wonder how easy it is for somebody to
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: immediately digest in this day and age, though it was
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: the number one pop single when it came out. And
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: the other one, obviously, is If I Was Your Girlfriend,
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: which is like, those are two songs that Prince has
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: got more songs that nobody can cover. Like, you can
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: try that if you want to, but it's not going
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: to work. Like, you've got the, like, nothing compares to
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: you and the other joints that are there. Yes, other
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: people can go ahead and do this. But there is
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: a wing of those that's like, all you guys need
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: to leave this one alone. Genuine, all people have the
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: nerve to try to redo with Duff's, because I can't
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: believe Prince cleared it. Um, You can't, you're not doing that.
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: TLC tried to do it if I was your girlfriend.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: The audacity. You guys ain't built for this. Like, that
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: is not a bunny slope for you to try. But yeah,
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: I guess we thought you were doing something on Prince.
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 1: It's just a matter of figuring out exactly how.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 2: All right, here's our last one.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 11: Hey, Bomani. And in Kansas City, Missouri, favorite Uber driver.
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 11: Just calling in. Shout out to all the Tidewater fans.
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 13: References my pops grew up in Norfolk well technically Suffolk
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 13: Virginia used to be called Pewsville and he went to
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 13: Tidewater Community College back in the day unfortunately passed away
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 13: shout out to him.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 3: But uh yeah.
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 11: Do you have a favorite non-fiction book that you would
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 11: recommend and when are you going to bring back your
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 11: book club thank you love the show by money my
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 11: brother and I Faithfully listening to you all. And just
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 11: looking forward to seeing the.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 3: Evolution of your show. All right.
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 2: Take care.
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: All right. Appreciate it, brother. Book Club is a possibility
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: for the summer. We've planted on things. We'll see how
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: that goes. Nonfiction books. The one that jumps to the
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: top of my mind is a bunch, obviously. But the
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: one that I think for this audience is probably the
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 1: way to go. And I think we did this in
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: the book club here. But it's fine. Friday Night Lights.
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: Buzz Bissinger. Possibly the best book I've ever read. Like,
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 1: it's not the movie. It's closer. I mean, it's closer
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: to the movie. It's not the TV show. It is incredible. Like,
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 1: I can't say enough. That one there. Like, you know, obviously,
• 1:01:55

• 1:02:44
  Speaker 1: to make people feel perfectly comfortable being straight out about
