Speaker 1: human from the world famous Fox Sports Radio Studios where
1:24
Speaker 1: mister Pickham is complaining because of some bad programming decisions
1:29
Speaker 1: that certain people made, and I tried to inform mister Pickham.
1:32
Speaker 1: He clearly doesn't pay attention when I mentioned the iHeartRadio app,
1:36
Speaker 1: but he did say, mister Pickham, I would really like
1:38
Speaker 1: to hear about tires, and I said, you know, mister Pickham,

2:43
Speaker 1: bowl dot com slash disclosures. I got some messages that
2:46
Speaker 1: some of you did not hear. The punchline for the
2:48
Speaker 1: last joke of Last Hour. I don't know how that
2:50
Speaker 1: could have happened. So if you missed it because you
2:53
Speaker 1: didn't have good hearing the joke, I don't The person
2:57
Speaker 1: that sent this did not write their name, but it
2:59
Speaker 1: was What's the end? NBA's media nickname for Victor one
3:02
Speaker 1: Banyama after he skipped out on the media the other night,
3:06
Speaker 1: it was Victor Where's he Yama? I thought that was
3:12
Speaker 1: a pretty good joke. Yeah, anyway, all right, On that note,
3:16
Speaker 1: the Spurs, by the way, mollywopped the thunder as anticipated.
3:21
Speaker 1: We will get our Game seven on Saturday night and
3:24
Speaker 1: it will likely be a blowout. It really just depends
3:26
Speaker 1: on which way the NBA wants to go. They're going
3:29
Speaker 1: to send in Scott Foster, Tony Brothers, who they going
3:33
Speaker 1: to send in there to make sure the desired outcome
3:36
Speaker 1: happens and what would be the desired octim I would
3:38
Speaker 1: think the NBA would rather see Victor one Banyama and
3:41
Speaker 1: the Spurs, as he's the next big thing in the
3:43
Speaker 1: finals against the Knickerbockers, that that would be more compelling.
3:48
Speaker 1: We'll find out anyway, are they? This Hour is from Houston. Decisions, decisions,
3:54
Speaker 1: decisions that are being made as teams have workouts, very
3:59
Speaker 1: big week for workouts around the NFL, and then eventually
4:02
Speaker 1: everyone will be on vacation for another month before the
4:05
Speaker 1: training camp period opens up. We go to the Lone
4:07
Speaker 1: Star State where the team they've already picked up the
4:11
Speaker 1: fifth year option on their quarterback see Jay Stroud feels
4:15
Speaker 1: that he has done his part to earn a contract extension.
4:20
Speaker 1: Of course, he acclaimed, well, this is my agent's handling that,
4:23
Speaker 1: and I'm not focused on the negotiations with the Texans
4:26
Speaker 1: out if you heard any of this or not, maybe not.
4:28
Speaker 1: I always snicker and I give a little sidey when
4:32
Speaker 1: I hear an athlete say I'm not worried about the negotiation.
4:35
Speaker 1: So I'm not worried about somebody who wants to pay
4:37
Speaker 1: me lottery money. I'm not worried about that. Come on anyway.
4:42
Speaker 1: Stroud is eligible for a mega mega mega millions extension
4:47
Speaker 1: for the first time since he arrived on the scene
4:49
Speaker 1: with gray great hopes, high expectations in twenty twenty three,
4:52
Speaker 1: because he's been a disappointment. He was the second overall
4:55
Speaker 1: pick in the draft and things are not going well
4:58
Speaker 1: right now, it has. He's been a discussion within the CJ.
5:02
Speaker 1: Stroud camp, he says, But he says, he lets his
5:06
Speaker 1: agent handle that, like we said there and all blah
5:08
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah. My job is to play football. Yeah, okay,
5:12
Speaker 1: well you're not very good at that right now, Pale
5:14
Speaker 1: according to mister irrigation and my eyeballs. So that is
5:17
Speaker 1: a good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question. CJ.
5:22
Speaker 1: Stroud he feels that he's he's held up his end
5:27
Speaker 1: of the bargain, all right, And that's the money quote.
5:30
Speaker 1: He said, I think I've held my bargain up. Whatever
5:33
Speaker 1: happens happened. So that's his quote. So c J. Stroud
5:36
Speaker 1: feels he's held up his end of the bargain to
5:38
Speaker 1: earn a contract extension from the Houston Football team. How
5:44
Speaker 1: wrong does that quote feel to you? How wrong does
5:49
Speaker 1: that quote feel to you? The I've held my bargain up, Well,
5:54
Speaker 1: it's the phrasing's wrong right off the top. Anyway, I've
5:57
Speaker 1: got Arctic ocean, cubicles and grave digger, and we will
6:03
Speaker 1: combine all of these things together and we are going
6:09
Speaker 1: to have a big bowl of the gabba of the
6:13
Speaker 1: babaganoosh and then the Gobba gool inside. So the ball
6:16
Speaker 1: will have the the baba gush and then we'll have
6:19
Speaker 1: the Gobba gool on the side. So to kick off here,
6:22
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be naive to the fact that you
6:25
Speaker 1: cannot expect c J. Stroud to just come out and say, oh, yeah,
6:28
Speaker 1: I shouldn't get paid. I suck. I've sucked at a
6:31
Speaker 1: time you cannot suck, which is every big game I've
6:33
Speaker 1: been in in my life, in the NFL and the playoffs.
6:36
Speaker 1: So you expect c J. Stroud to advocate for himself.
6:39
Speaker 1: Obviously you would do that. You would expect that. Now
6:42
Speaker 1: that being said, the man sounds like a total crumb bum.
6:47
Speaker 1: Why we we've watched him play. The gap between c J.
6:52
Speaker 1: Stroud's level of confidence and his self evaluation and his
6:56
Speaker 1: actual resume on his Pro Football Reference page and watching
7:00
Speaker 1: and listening to the games, it's wider than the Texans
7:04
Speaker 1: defensive cushion on a third and twenty five.
7:06
Speaker 3: C J.
7:07
Speaker 1: Stroud talking about an extension of big money. It's like
7:11
Speaker 1: a C student, And I know a thing or two
7:13
Speaker 1: about being a C student demanding that you're the Valedictorian
7:19
Speaker 1: and you get all the privileges of that, Like, let's
7:21
Speaker 1: be real, c J. Stroud is getting worse. He's not
7:24
Speaker 1: getting better, period stop. C J. Stroud is getting worse.
7:28
Speaker 1: Comma not better, period stop. And if this is holding
7:33
Speaker 1: up your end of the bargain, what does failing look like?
7:37
Speaker 1: I'm asking for a friend seriously, Like, how do you
7:40
Speaker 1: regress three straight years and still walk around like you're
7:43
Speaker 1: what Josh Allen or something like that, come on. His
7:47
Speaker 1: playoff performances are not sequels, they're straight to DVD or
7:53
Speaker 1: I guess we should update that to streaming disasters right
7:56
Speaker 1: after promising at the beginning, I don't know he individual promises,
8:01
Speaker 1: but there was a lot of excitement, there was a
8:03
Speaker 1: lot of optimism, and he came out of the gates
8:06
Speaker 1: Gangbusters looked like, man, this guy knows what he's doing.
8:09
Speaker 1: The Texans have a big time quarterback and he's ready
8:12
Speaker 1: to go and watch out and all that stuff. And
8:14
Speaker 1: he followed that up with a couple of catastrophic rewrites
8:21
Speaker 1: like the Texans fan base, guys like mister Irrigation and
8:24
Speaker 1: all that. They do not need reassurances. What they need
8:28
Speaker 1: is a quarterback. Who doesn't melt like beeswax candles in
8:33
Speaker 1: the playoffs playoffs, and by every and I truly mean this,
8:37
Speaker 1: by every objective measurement, c J. Stroud has shrunk like
8:42
Speaker 1: someone jumping in and saying I'm gonna swim a couple
8:45
Speaker 1: of laps around the Arctic Ocean. That's him in the postseason.
8:49
Speaker 1: There's a lot of shrinkage, if you know what I mean.
8:51
Speaker 1: And while he has won a wild card game each
8:55
Speaker 1: of his three seasons, whooped, hee damn, do you then
8:58
Speaker 1: realize he's been bailed by his defense. The Texans have
9:02
Speaker 1: not gotten past the division round. His playoff passer rating
9:06
Speaker 1: c J. Stroud is lagging. It's I think around eighty.
9:10
Speaker 1: And he's worse measurably worse than he is in the
9:16
Speaker 1: regular season. He's turnover prone under pressure. Stroud gets bailed
9:20
Speaker 1: out like the banking industry the car industry did in
9:24
Speaker 1: America years ago. But in his case, he gets bailed
9:27
Speaker 1: out not by the White House or Congress. He gets
9:29
Speaker 1: bailed out by the Texans defense. In fact, he is
9:32
Speaker 1: zero and three in playoff games. Here's a fun fact.
9:36
Speaker 1: He's zero in three in playoff games where the defense
9:39
Speaker 1: doesn't score a touchdown. So if the Texans don't get
9:42
Speaker 1: a defensive touchdown, they've not won a playoff game with
9:45
Speaker 1: c J. Stroud. That doesn't seem sustainable. Not that I'm
9:48
Speaker 1: an expert or anything like that. I just do the
9:49
Speaker 1: overnight show. That does not seem sustainable. Twenty twenty five
9:53
Speaker 1: playoffs were especially ugly. Ten turnovers for c J. Stroud,
9:58
Speaker 1: five interceptions, five fumbles and a couple of them lost
10:03
Speaker 1: across just two games. And he's very popular with the
10:07
Speaker 1: Patriots because that includes that historically low. I think he
10:09
Speaker 1: had a twenty eight passer rating if I remember I
10:11
Speaker 1: after go back to check my notes, I think it
10:12
Speaker 1: was right. I think it was exactly twenty eight percent.
10:15
Speaker 1: And not one, not two, not three, but four interceptions
10:17
Speaker 1: against the New England football team, which is a heartburn situation.
10:23
Speaker 1: Is what that is. Now keep in mind, will objectively
10:27
Speaker 1: you would say c J. Stroud's not that good. He's
10:29
Speaker 1: going the wrong direction. The ace in the hole for CJ. Stroud,
10:35
Speaker 1: You know what it is, fomo fomo, foe mo. The
10:41
Speaker 1: fear of missing out, and all these teams in professional
10:44
Speaker 1: sports are so afraid of getting it wrong, even though
10:47
Speaker 1: when every key indicator says, this guy's not the guy.
10:52
Speaker 1: We saw it with Kyler Murray. They gave him a contract,
10:55
Speaker 1: they knew he wasn't the guy in Arizona. They just
10:57
Speaker 1: finally got out of the contract that they were still
10:59
Speaker 1: paying the price. They knew he wasn't the guy, though
11:01
Speaker 1: they paid him anyway because we can't allow him to
11:03
Speaker 1: go somewhere else and be good as well. We'll see
11:05
Speaker 1: what happens with the Minnesota Vikings. And there's a bunch
11:08
Speaker 1: of mediocre quarterbacks, justin Herbert with the Chargers, Mediocre, not
11:14
Speaker 1: a big game guys, empty stat guy he got paid.
11:18
Speaker 1: It's a lot of mediocre quarterbacks that have made a
11:20
Speaker 1: lot of money because of Fomo. And I believe that
11:23
Speaker 1: c J. Stroud, whether it's the Texans or some other dumb,
11:27
Speaker 1: dumb team like the Browns or whoever will pay him
11:31
Speaker 1: because of Fomo, well, the Texans would be the first option.
11:35
Speaker 1: We'll see what he does this year. Furthermore to Philadelphia
11:37
Speaker 1: we go. This is the last weekend of May. Did
11:41
Speaker 1: you know, Yeah, the last last weekend of me miss it,
11:46
Speaker 1: And so we are inching closer to June first, which
11:49
Speaker 1: I believe, if I'm correct, is on Monday, and it
11:53
Speaker 1: is expected either on Monday or Tuesday of next week.
11:56
Speaker 1: The birds, the bird is the word, the bird brain
12:00
Speaker 1: are going to say, as Dick and Dayton would say
12:02
Speaker 1: bye bye. They're gonna say bye bye to disgruntled wide
12:06
Speaker 1: receiver A. J. Brown, and they're gonna trade him up
12:10
Speaker 1: I ninety five to the New England football team. However,
12:15
Speaker 1: there are some last second reports that indicate the Eagles
12:19
Speaker 1: and Patriots are are not close. They're not close to
12:23
Speaker 1: completing a trade, and could there be I love this
12:28
Speaker 1: a mystery team, the mystery team entering the chat right now,
12:34
Speaker 1: that's always fun. We love a good mystery, all right.
12:37
Speaker 1: So the question why are we getting these cold war
12:42
Speaker 1: reports that the teams are not talking regarding AJ Brown
12:46
Speaker 1: talks between Philadelphia and New England. So my first thought
12:52
Speaker 1: is the reason they're not talking is they've already got
12:55
Speaker 1: everything done and they just have to click on the
12:58
Speaker 1: DOCU sign and that's it on Monday or Tuesday and
13:02
Speaker 1: then the trade happens. So there's no reason to talk
13:06
Speaker 1: because they've already talked and they've got everything ready to go,
13:10
Speaker 1: and there's no need to give a primal scream or
13:13
Speaker 1: anything like that. The other thought I had is that
13:17
Speaker 1: the GM Howie Roseman, is not negotiating. He's got the
13:22
Speaker 1: deal laid out, the game plan. However, he's on a
13:26
Speaker 1: dinghy and he's out there on it. He's trying to
13:29
Speaker 1: catch catfish and a dinghy and he's begging anyone who's
13:34
Speaker 1: also a fan of the dinghy to outbid New England
13:37
Speaker 1: at the last minute before the clock runs out. It's like,
13:41
Speaker 1: if you ever buy any on eBay, you know there's
13:43
Speaker 1: a term. I think it's called eBay snipping, I think
13:46
Speaker 1: is what it's called, where the very last second they
13:49
Speaker 1: set a timer and he say, yet until like midnight
13:53
Speaker 1: to buy this bag. Well, I don't really want the bag,
13:56
Speaker 1: all right, I'll bid on the bag, But no, you
13:57
Speaker 1: wait until the very last second. Swoop in there and
14:02
Speaker 1: some mystery bidder is going to come in there at
14:04
Speaker 1: the very last minute and say, okay, I'll give you more.
14:09
Speaker 1: And why because the Eagles and brown are at a
14:12
Speaker 1: they're not at impass, they're past that. They're at a
14:16
Speaker 1: dead end, and they're at a dead end and they're
14:21
Speaker 1: surrounded by pit vipers, king cobras and black mambas. That's
14:25
Speaker 1: what they're at right there, that's where they're at. And
14:27
Speaker 1: Philly crossed the rubicon and burned the bridge behind them.
14:32
Speaker 1: Burn burn, burn, burn burn, and there's no rowing back. Merrily, merrily, merrily,
14:38
Speaker 1: can't do it. If the Godfather skips the wedding, which happened,
14:43
Speaker 1: the relationship is not strained. It's cooked. It's absolutely cooked.
14:47
Speaker 1: And Jalen Hurts, as we've talked about, the tabloids were
14:50
Speaker 1: all over this wasn't at AJ Brown's wedding because he
14:53
Speaker 1: wasn't welcome at AJ Brown's wedding. That is not awkward.
14:57
Speaker 1: That is a no flies. That is irreversible. And Jalen
15:03
Speaker 1: Hurts and AJ Brown are not teammates anymore. They're co
15:09
Speaker 1: workers currently waiting for the Human Resources Department to separate
15:13
Speaker 1: their cubicles. Okay, move these guys. Okay. The Eagles have
15:17
Speaker 1: already hit up home depot. They've gone down and bought
15:21
Speaker 1: some replacement parts, not good parts, but Hollywood Brown Journey.
15:26
Speaker 1: Even the wide receiver Elijah Moore, rookie with a good name.
15:30
Speaker 1: We'll see if he turns out to be a player.
15:31
Speaker 1: Makai lemon, you won't get a lemon. They got a lemon. Meanwhile,
15:36
Speaker 1: AJ Brown has his seat built fastened and he is
15:41
Speaker 1: ready to enter the NFL transfer portal and go to
15:45
Speaker 1: the Patriots and just put the knee pads on for
15:48
Speaker 1: Mike Rabel. We know some other people have done that
15:51
Speaker 1: and just celebrate Mike Raybaugh, great romance, the whole thing.
15:56
Speaker 1: So we expect that to happen by the end of
15:58
Speaker 1: the week. All right, last thing, San Francisco, we go
16:02
Speaker 1: where forty nine are defensive end Nick Bosa claiming his
16:05
Speaker 1: rehab is going. Well, that's not what we're going to
16:07
Speaker 1: talk about here. He was asked about NFL stadiums converting
16:11
Speaker 1: to grass for the FIFO World Cup, which is coming up,
16:15
Speaker 1: the great price gouging event that's trying to stick Americans
16:18
Speaker 1: with a tremendous credit card bill, and so the stadiums,
16:24
Speaker 1: these NFL stadiums are gonna have grass and then they're
16:26
Speaker 1: gonna revert to turf, the fake grass for NFL games. Bosa,
16:31
Speaker 1: when asked about this, says, quote, it's a little bizarre,
16:36
Speaker 1: but what can you expect. And he's not alone. I'm
16:40
Speaker 1: just using him as a jumping off point. He's not alone.
16:43
Speaker 1: There are other NFL players I could have used. I
16:45
Speaker 1: just choose Nick Bosa question. With all of this hullabaloo
16:50
Speaker 1: and pandemonium over turf fields versus grass fields, can you
16:55
Speaker 1: explain why NFL owners continue to be so stubborn towards them? Well, yes,
17:03
Speaker 1: thanks for asking, And it's not that hard. It's simple.
17:07
Speaker 1: It's Ockham's razor. The simplest answer is the right answer,
17:10
Speaker 1: because the NFL loves consistency, even if consistency is unpopular,
17:15
Speaker 1: and they don't care about your little algorithms and bots complaining.
17:20
Speaker 1: Owners love turf and the reason they love turf, it
17:24
Speaker 1: doesn't complain. It doesn't form a union, it doesn't ask
17:28
Speaker 1: for new contracts and new money and all that stuff.
17:30
Speaker 1: If they could replace all of the players with turf,
17:34
Speaker 1: they do it. They do it. Grass is for romantic
17:38
Speaker 1: purists of football who like to see grass stains and
17:42
Speaker 1: mud all over the uniforms. Turf is for reliable, dependable
17:47
Speaker 1: profits multi use stadiums, and these NFL stadiums only have
17:52
Speaker 1: eight or nine home games a year and then maybe
17:55
Speaker 1: a playoff game or two unless you're really lucky. Multi
17:59
Speaker 1: use stadiums are factories of revenue. We all know that.
18:03
Speaker 1: And turf survives and helps the bottom line. Owners are
18:09
Speaker 1: not giving up concert dates so the players can have
18:13
Speaker 1: cleats and play on grass. If grass can survive the
18:17
Speaker 1: era's tour with Taylor Swift, you know, okay, great, it can't, right,
18:23
Speaker 1: it can't survive the concert circuit with Taylor Swift. It's
18:26
Speaker 1: not gonna survive Derrick Henry and all these other guys
18:29
Speaker 1: running around. So if you want grass, the NFL loners
18:32
Speaker 1: will say, all right, take less money, take a little less,
18:35
Speaker 1: take a haircut, so the stadium can stop hosting the
18:38
Speaker 1: grave Digger and his pals at the Monster truck rallies
18:42
Speaker 1: in the offseason. And despite what the players say, the
18:46
Speaker 1: injury data is not one sided. It is mixed. The
18:52
Speaker 1: newer turf, that not the stuff they originally had, which
18:56
Speaker 1: is called astro turf, which was essentially green carpet on concrete,
19:00
Speaker 1: which they played on in the eighties into the nineties.
19:04
Speaker 1: The newer turf, it's closed the gap, it's narrowed the
19:08
Speaker 1: gap compared to the old astro turf, and so the
19:11
Speaker 1: injury rates are comparable. Of course, remember you can always
19:16
Speaker 1: manipulate the numbers and if you want to twist some
19:19
Speaker 1: things around. That's why the stats are fun to talk about,
19:23
Speaker 1: and the analytics are great to talk about. It's a
19:25
Speaker 1: lot of bull crap, and the people in sports have
19:27
Speaker 1: been completely brainwashed by the bull crap they have. You know,
19:32
Speaker 1: you've also got a lot of dome stadiums, which complement
19:36
Speaker 1: it's complicated to put grass down. You've got places where
19:41
Speaker 1: the sun doesn't shine very often, and you're in a
19:44
Speaker 1: dome stadium, which is a double whammie. And so these
19:47
Speaker 1: temporary World Cup grass fields that have been installed are
19:51
Speaker 1: very expensive and they're logistically complex, is what they are.
19:57
Speaker 1: They highlight the fact that the turf is just an
20:01
Speaker 1: easier option. It's cheaper, it lasts longer. And these guys,
20:05
Speaker 1: even though they're aristocrats and robber barons and oldigarks and
20:09
Speaker 1: all that, they prioritize the revenue from the non football events,
20:15
Speaker 1: things that you'll likely never attend, and they love the
20:18
Speaker 1: lower operational cost and there's less headaches and all that.
20:23
Speaker 1: So follow the money, as we always say, you follow
20:26
Speaker 1: the money, and the turf wins every time, and twice
20:30
Speaker 1: on Sunday, every single time. All right, it is the

32:52
Speaker 6: from the perspective of The Soviet. Union if you're a
32:54
Speaker 6: fan Of For All. Mankind it's kind of a going
32:58
