- 0:35Speaker 1: Touchdown tight end rookie, Eli Raritan's first NFL TD. 45-yard
- 0:39Speaker 1: line in New England.
- 0:40Speaker 2: Fourth and one under center lock.
- 0:42Speaker 4: Fakes the handoff.
- 0:43Speaker 2: Throws a pass.
- 0:44Speaker 1: Caught.
- 0:44Speaker 2: 40-yard line.
- 0:45Speaker 4: Breaking the tackle.
- 0:46Speaker 1: 35-30.
- 0:46Speaker 4: It's Jackson Smith and Jigman.
- 0:49Speaker 1: 15, 10, 5. Touchdown. Touchdown, Seattle.
- 0:54Speaker 5: 45-yard catch and run by the explosive Jackson Smith and Jigman.
- 1:01Speaker 2: Fourth and one.
- 1:03Speaker 4: An extra point will tie early in the fourth. Third
- 1:07Speaker 4: down five. Patriots down by three. 26 seconds to go.
- 1:11Speaker 4: Shotgun snap to May. Moved out of the pocket.
- 1:14Speaker 2: Throws a pass.
- 1:15Speaker 1: End zone.
- 1:15Speaker 5: Intercepted in the end zone. Was he inbounds? Intercepted by Jobe.
- 1:25Speaker 5: Seattle has picked off May. They've done it again! The
- 1:31Speaker 5: defense of Seattle has done it again! Drake May has
- 1:38Speaker 5: thrown his third interception in this quarter.
- 1:41Speaker 1: Saturday is fun day, church is on Sunday, then we
- 1:44Speaker 1: get the barbecue out. Westwood won on the call there.
- 1:51Speaker 1: We just talked about this. Just talked about it.
- 1:54Speaker 6: There is something to Bo Nix about.
- 2:01Speaker 1: That has never happened to him. He has never been
- 2:05Speaker 1: the reason why you lost a game like that, like
- 2:07Speaker 1: what Drake May just did. And it's three interceptions in
- 2:11Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, but that last one is you're at
- 2:14Speaker 1: the 16-yard line down three with 30 seconds.
- 2:18Speaker 6: Left or whatever it was. You're guaranteed overtime.
- 2:22Speaker 1: Guaranteed. You just can't do that. And think about it
- 2:26Speaker 1: this way. You'd be heading into overtime... Against a team
- 2:29Speaker 1: with a backup quarterback. If you were to set odds
- 2:33Speaker 1: on that, it's like 75% chance you win the game outright,
- 2:37Speaker 1: even if you go to OT. I just, I was
- 2:40Speaker 1: blown away at that fourth quarter from Drake May. Blown
- 2:43Speaker 1: away by it.
- 2:45Speaker 7: That last interception just stunned me. It stunned me.
- 2:49Speaker 1: I mean, it would have been a perfect pass. It
- 2:52Speaker 1: had to be perfect for.
- 2:53Speaker 6: It to work.
- 2:54Speaker 7: You're in the red zone.
- 2:56Speaker 1: What are you doing? What are you doing there? When
- 3:03Speaker 1: we talk about, well, how has Bo Nix won all
- 3:06Speaker 1: of these games as a guy that's maybe most not considered,
- 3:11Speaker 1: you know, a top 10 quarterback in the league.
- 3:14Speaker 6: Because he did what drew lock did last night.
- 3:16Speaker 1: Correct. He it's, it's, you know what, if you ever
- 3:18Speaker 1: played ping pong and, and, All you're trying to do
- 3:23Speaker 1: is keep the ball on the table and wait for
- 3:24Speaker 1: the other guy to make the mistake. That's all they
- 3:27Speaker 1: were doing. It's like they slow played it by Drew
- 3:30Speaker 1: Locke's going to throw a five-yard out route to a
- 3:32Speaker 1: guy that's wide open, and then they're going to run
- 3:34Speaker 1: the football and probably punt and just wait for Drake
- 3:37Speaker 1: May to make a mistake like that. That's the entire
- 3:40Speaker 1: fourth quarter.
- 3:41Speaker 7: That fourth down play to JSN. That broke the game open.
- 3:45Speaker 7: That was crazy.
- 3:46Speaker 1: Well, that was, JSN is open and then runs by
- 3:51Speaker 1: 11 people on the field all the way to the
- 3:53Speaker 1: end zone.
- 3:53Speaker 8: Yeah, did you have the same reaction when he turned
- 3:56Speaker 8: and ran? I'm like, surely he's not going to get
- 3:58Speaker 8: to the end. Wait, he's still running.
- 4:00Speaker 1: Wait, what's going on here?
- 4:02Speaker 2: I thought to myself, dang, that's a lot of speed.
- 4:06Speaker 2: It seemed like the Patriots had plenty of guys in
- 4:08Speaker 2: the secondary that should have, would have, could have made
- 4:10Speaker 2: that tackle and stop, but He just kept motoring, all
- 4:14Speaker 2: of a sudden there's separation, and all of a sudden
- 4:16Speaker 2: he's in the end zone. And Vic, I was watching
- 4:18Speaker 2: last night, and as soon as it happened, I go, that.
- 4:23Speaker 2: That right there. That is why I don't fear Bo
- 4:28Speaker 2: Nix having some sort of a regression type of situation.
- 4:32Speaker 2: Drake May last season, guys, he threw eight interceptions all
- 4:37Speaker 2: year long in 17 games. He threw three in the
- 4:41Speaker 2: fourth quarter last night. Bo Nix will never, he'll never
- 4:44Speaker 2: ever do that right there. And that should make you
- 4:49Speaker 2: feel good.
- 4:50Speaker 1: That's the biggest separation. And I hate to, I don't
- 4:53Speaker 1: want to make this a bigger thing. Look, it's one week,
- 4:56Speaker 1: opening week games, opening games to the NFL season, always
- 5:00Speaker 1: have a little wonkiness to them, it feels like.
- 5:03Speaker 6: But I went back and looked.
- 5:06Speaker 1: A lot of games the Patriots won last year, they
- 5:09Speaker 1: beat the snot out of some teams. They had one
- 5:11Speaker 1: of the easiest schedules, I guess, now looking back in hindsight.
- 5:14Speaker 1: I was reading they had one of the easiest schedules
- 5:16Speaker 1: in the history of the league last year, which I'm
- 5:18Speaker 1: not taking that away from them.
- 5:19Speaker 6: They're still a really good team.
- 5:21Speaker 1: But what I noticed is when games really mattered or
- 5:25Speaker 1: when pressure was ramped up or when the game was
- 5:27Speaker 1: close late, Drake May did not play well.
- 5:31Speaker 6: He really didn't. And I'll take you through it.
- 5:34Speaker 1: If you guys remember, even on the way to a
- 5:36Speaker 1: Super Bowl last year, Drake May in the divisional round
- 5:39Speaker 1: was not great against the Chargers. They won 16-3. They
- 5:45Speaker 1: played against the Houston Texans. They won 28-6. He had
- 5:49Speaker 1: 179 passing yards. But you guys remember how that happened, right? C.J.
- 5:53Speaker 1: Stroud couldn't hang on to the football. Gave him five turnovers.
- 5:57Speaker 1: Then you had the Broncos game. Did Drake May play well? No.
- 6:01Speaker 1: And then you had the Super Bowl. Did Drake May
- 6:03Speaker 1: play well? No, it feels like when the pressure ramps up,
- 6:08Speaker 1: Drake may feels it. I think he feels it a
- 6:11Speaker 1: little bit.
- 6:12Speaker 7: Well, uh, drew lock did something steady could not. And
- 6:17Speaker 7: he did it with later notice instead.
- 6:19Speaker 6: Well, you know what?
- 6:21Speaker 1: Drake may did one thing that Jared Stidham didn't do.
- 6:24Speaker 1: He just didn't turn it over. And that was enough
- 6:28Speaker 1: in that game. You know, um, Without JSN making that
- 6:34Speaker 1: freakish play where it's just that burst of speed gets
- 6:37Speaker 1: past everyone, I mean, you look at the drives for Seattle.
- 6:41Speaker 1: There was a lot of, like, four-play punt 15-yard drives
- 6:46Speaker 1: that were mixed in there. Now, horrible situation to be
- 6:49Speaker 1: put in. You saw it. It reminded me a little
- 6:52Speaker 1: bit of Aaron Rodgers on the Jets running out with
- 6:55Speaker 1: the flag four plays into the season. It's over.
- 6:59Speaker 6: Now, they said they got good news on the hip.
- 7:02Speaker 1: Initially of Sam Darnold, that it just wasn't a fracture
- 7:06Speaker 1: or anything like that. Now, I would assume he's probably
- 7:08Speaker 1: going to miss some time. I don't know if he'd
- 7:11Speaker 1: miss enough time for the Thursday night game that the
- 7:14Speaker 1: Broncos play against them in week six, but he could.
- 7:18Speaker 1: I mean, the weird thing was he limped off the
- 7:22Speaker 1: field and then he was standing by himself. They took
- 7:24Speaker 1: him in the blue tent and it's like, your night's over.
- 7:27Speaker 1: There's something going on there.
- 7:29Speaker 2: It's interesting, guys, because... The team that won, depending on
- 7:33Speaker 2: the injury situation at Darnold, you feel like maybe you
- 7:36Speaker 2: lost or you lost some hope for the season to
- 7:39Speaker 2: repeat as a Super Bowl champion.
- 7:40Speaker 1: Bless you.
- 7:42Speaker 2: Bless you again. Good to see you. Good to see you.
- 7:45Speaker 1: Oh, yes!
- 7:46Speaker 2: So it feels like, okay, we won the game, but man,
- 7:50Speaker 2: now our starting quarterback is going to be out for
- 7:52Speaker 2: how long? If you're a Patriots fan today, you got
- 7:57Speaker 2: to look at that and go, Wow, was that all
- 7:59Speaker 2: fool's gold? I mean, what?
- 8:01Speaker 6: Was last season fool's gold?
- 8:03Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
- 8:05Speaker 2: Because, I mean, look, our defense played pretty dang well
- 8:08Speaker 2: last night. But, man, oh, man, your starting quarterback and, quote,
- 8:13Speaker 2: MVP candidate.
- 8:14Speaker 1: You know, Vic, it looked to me like he just
- 8:17Speaker 1: got a little big for his britches in that fourth quarter.
- 8:20Speaker 2: And maybe he was feeling the pressure, but it's also like, oh, yeah,
- 8:22Speaker 2: I'm great. No, you can't do it, dum-dum. You can't
- 8:26Speaker 2: do it.
- 8:27Speaker 7: You know, I– Watching that game and the postgame, I
- 8:30Speaker 7: still have an affinity, a soft spot in my heart
- 8:33Speaker 7: for Drew Locke.
- 8:34Speaker 1: I don't know about you guys, but I was really fortunate.
- 8:35Speaker 1: I love Drew. I really was. I was happy for Drew.
- 8:39Speaker 8: And he came in as a second-round quarterback. A ton
- 8:43Speaker 8: of expectations were placed on his shoulders here. And it
- 8:47Speaker 8: just didn't work out. And when he got traded, when
- 8:49Speaker 8: he was part of that flood of trades for Russell Wilson,
- 8:52Speaker 8: he just got lost in the wash.
- 8:54Speaker 1: He survived.
- 8:56Speaker 7: He's found his niche as a backup. He won a
- 8:59Speaker 7: Super Bowl, and the first game after that Super Bowl,
- 9:03Speaker 7: he wins a game in a key game at home.
- 9:06Speaker 7: I'm happy for him.
- 9:09Speaker 1: The funny thing with Drew, he was the first quarterback
- 9:12Speaker 1: drafted after Brock, right? Was he the first quarterback that
- 9:17Speaker 1: was drafted after Osweiler?
- 9:20Speaker 2: I don't remember that. I had to look it up.
- 9:24Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure he was. Are you talking about Broncos quarterback? Yes.
- 9:29Speaker 2: Yeah. Oh, yeah. I thought you meant in that particular draft.
- 9:32Speaker 1: No, no, no.
- 9:33Speaker 7: I want you to rewind and give us a sentence
- 9:37Speaker 7: where we can make sense of it.
- 9:38Speaker 1: Okay. He was the first quarterback drafted after Osweiler by
- 9:42Speaker 1: the Broncos. Yes. I thought that was a given with
- 9:45Speaker 1: our discussion. Sorry.
- 9:46Speaker 2: That is correct, then. That is after. I think I
- 9:48Speaker 2: just made it look too easy.
- 9:49Speaker 6: So the point I was getting to was.
- 9:52Speaker 1: This was your question. He was the first quarterback drafted, right?
- 9:57Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Paxton. Paxton Lynch, yes. The first one in
- 10:01Speaker 1: a while is what I was getting at.
- 10:02Speaker 2: He just made a freaking mess of the whole dang thing.
- 10:05Speaker 1: Here's your question. Drew Locke was the quarterback.
- 10:08Speaker 7: He was the first of those, right?
- 10:11Speaker 1: The first quarterback drafted after... Yes, it should have been
- 10:15Speaker 1: Paxton Lynch, not Brock Osweiler. That's my bad. But by
- 10:18Speaker 1: the Broncos... which is why the expectations were so high
- 10:22Speaker 1: on him here. If you draft a quarterback in the
- 10:24Speaker 1: second round, that's not like you're thinking to yourself, okay,
- 10:27Speaker 1: this is going to be the savior of this franchise.
- 10:29Speaker 1: You're like, okay, maybe this guy's got a little bit
- 10:32Speaker 1: of promise. But if a second round quarterback doesn't work,
- 10:35Speaker 1: it doesn't feel the same as drafting somebody in the
- 10:37Speaker 1: first round that doesn't work.
- 10:39Speaker 3: Paxton?
- 10:40Speaker 2: Paxton's Paxton.
- 10:41Speaker 1: Because he was the next, the only guy that was
- 10:43Speaker 1: drafted in a huge timeframe, you put the expectations on him.
- 10:47Speaker 1: They were grass minutes draws. It was quarterback after quarterback.
- 10:49Speaker 7: He was a second round quarterback.
- 10:51Speaker 1: I mean, in the.
- 10:52Speaker 8: expectations placed on him were those of first-round material. He
- 10:55Speaker 8: wasn't a first-round guy, and I know that doesn't always matter,
- 10:59Speaker 8: but he was treated like a first-round guy.
- 11:00Speaker 2: Is that safe to say? Yeah, but he's making plenty
- 11:02Speaker 2: of money in the league. He has a nice career going.
- 11:05Speaker 7: That's what I'm saying.
- 11:06Speaker 1: I'm happy for him. I'm happy for him. I have
- 11:08Speaker 1: a question for you, Brent. Who's that guy? It was
- 11:14Speaker 1: a much better question than you're making it out to be.
- 11:16Speaker 1: I just forgot the detail of Broncos, and I got
- 11:18Speaker 1: the wrong quarterback. It was just two things that I
- 11:21Speaker 1: missed in the question. It's not that big a deal. 24-14.
- 11:26Speaker 2: Yeah!
- 11:27Speaker 7: 24-14.
- 11:30Speaker 1: What?
- 11:31Speaker 7: Hey, I was right on the under. Did I hit
- 11:35Speaker 7: the under? You didn't get anything right.
- 11:36Speaker 1: No, no, no. You said 24-14 is what you said.
- 11:39Speaker 1: I said Seahawks would win.
- 11:44Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 11:45Speaker 1: You know what, Vic? You nailed it. You called everything
- 11:47Speaker 1: that happened last night. You're right.
- 11:51Speaker 7: Good news for the Seahawks. We'll see how good it
- 11:53Speaker 7: is when results come back. They say that the hip
- 11:56Speaker 7: is not broken for Sam Darnold. That's what happens when
- 11:59Speaker 7: Draymond Jones.
- 12:00Speaker 1: Sits on you.
- 12:01Speaker 8: Hip is not broken, but the way he went down
- 12:05Speaker 8: and the pain he was in, there's something off in there.
- 12:07Speaker 1: And those hip injuries, they could be catastrophic. It didn't
- 12:10Speaker 1: look that weird to me.
- 12:11Speaker 2: But when the knee does that into the hip like that.
- 12:15Speaker 7: Just a big jam job.
- 12:16Speaker 2: We remember Neil Lomax. Neil Lomax was a quarterback for
- 12:20Speaker 2: the Cardinals when I was a kid.
- 12:21Speaker 1: I remember the name.
- 12:23Speaker 2: He had that happen, and it killed the blood, like
- 12:26Speaker 2: Bo Jackson. It killed the blood vessels in his hip,
- 12:30Speaker 2: and that area died, essentially, inside the body and atrophied bad. Jeez. Yeah,
- 12:36Speaker 2: I mean, that's also a really long time ago, and
- 12:39Speaker 2: the amount of advancement is pretty significant.
- 12:44Speaker 6: Was Bo Jackson a hip?
- 12:46Speaker 1: Yep.
- 12:47Speaker 2: Yes. Same thing. Knee and the hip, the femur goes
- 12:51Speaker 2: right up into the hip socket and breaks and cuts
- 12:55Speaker 2: off blood supply.
- 12:56Speaker 8: Rod Smith's career ended with a hip. Couldn't recoup from
- 12:59Speaker 8: that hip. A lot of people lose their careers because
- 13:02Speaker 8: of hip injuries. And they're the kind of injuries that
- 13:04Speaker 8: you can't, you know, you don't see them.
- 13:06Speaker 7: They're not as prominent on television like an Achilles or
- 13:10Speaker 7: an ACL, but it's all there in the inside, under
- 13:13Speaker 7: the hood.
- 13:14Speaker 1: Yeah, I wonder....
- 13:18Speaker 6: How long is that injury going to keep him out?
- 13:20Speaker 6: Because think about it.
- 13:21Speaker 1: You, that game against Seattle is in a little over
- 13:25Speaker 1: a month, a little over. So they had good news
- 13:29Speaker 1: that it's not a fracture, which would mean he's probably
- 13:32Speaker 1: out for the season.
- 13:33Speaker 6: That's why it's good news.
- 13:34Speaker 1: But you could potentially have a Thursday night game here
- 13:38Speaker 1: in Denver against the defending Superbowl champs that now becomes
- 13:43Speaker 1: a drew lock.
- 13:44Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 13:44Speaker 1: Reunion party. You know what I mean?
- 13:46Speaker 2: But isn't it interesting, too, because A.J. Brown left with
- 13:49Speaker 2: that ankle for the Patriots. Yeah, he did. Week one
- 13:53Speaker 2: of the NFL season. I mean, it hasn't even really started.
- 13:56Speaker 2: It's a Wednesday night. And when you have these injuries,
- 14:01Speaker 2: all of a sudden, your whole outlook just sort of changes.
- 14:05Speaker 2: I guess I get fearful. I mean, even week number one,
- 14:07Speaker 2: these teams are going to suffer injuries. You're going to go,
- 14:09Speaker 2: good gosh. All these things that we thought that we
- 14:12Speaker 2: could do. Maybe that's off the table now.
- 14:17Speaker 7: Somebody says here on the text line, Keener, you're correct.
- 14:20Speaker 1: The question was fine. Thank you.
- 14:22Speaker 7: When you ask if it's cloudy outside, you don't have
- 14:24Speaker 7: to ask if it's specifically cloudy on Earth. People should
- 14:27Speaker 7: understand that there are some things you should already know.
- 14:30Speaker 7: Everybody knows the Broncos drafted Drew.
- 14:32Speaker 1: Okay, I'm going to use your logic.
- 14:33Speaker 2: I'm going to use.
- 14:34Speaker 7: Your logic, guy.
- 14:36Speaker 1: What's the weather tomorrow? Huh?
- 14:43Speaker 2: Huh?
- 14:43Speaker 1: What's the weather tomorrow?
- 14:44Speaker 2: 80?
- 14:46Speaker 1: I'm not going to tell you where. I'm not going
- 14:48Speaker 1: to tell you where.
- 14:48Speaker 2: I'm going, where I live.
- 14:50Speaker 1: What's the weather tomorrow? Vic, I would assume you don't
- 14:52Speaker 1: mean Mumbai.
- 14:54Speaker 6: What's the weather tomorrow?
- 14:55Speaker 1: That would be my assumption. Well, you'd probably be talking
- 14:58Speaker 1: about in a general area surrounding us, what would it be?
- 15:01Speaker 1: This is a communications activity.
- 15:03Speaker 7: Communicating the proper language.
- 15:07Speaker 6: Is very important.
- 15:08Speaker 1: I'll go to break on this. Coming up next on
- 15:10Speaker 1: this sports radio show in Denver, Colorado. We'll discuss something that, well,
- 15:14Speaker 1: it's actually funny, Moshe. What you said, you were asking, well,
- 15:19Speaker 1: is last year a fluke for the Patriots?
- 15:21Speaker 6: I want to paint a scenario for you.
- 15:22Speaker 9: Sure.
- 15:23Speaker 1: Similar to what could happen here. We'll get to it next.
- 15:25Speaker 2: Vic, how old do you think Alvin Kamara is?
- 15:28Speaker 1: Today?
- 15:28Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 15:32Speaker 7: That's a clarifying question. Again, this show is about clarification.
- 15:37Speaker 7: It's about being specific. It's about proper information exchange. If
- 15:43Speaker 7: you're not going to be detailed.
- 15:44Speaker 2: I forgot about that one.
- 15:45Speaker 1: Oh, Nelly, that's such a great poll.
- 15:47Speaker 2: Excellent. Vic, how old do you think Alvin Kamara is? Today? Yeah.
- 15:53Speaker 2: Do the floor one.
- 15:54Speaker 1: Hang on, hang on. Do the floor one. That yeah
- 15:57Speaker 1: from Mosher, too. Today? Yeah. Yeah. Today? Yeah. Oh, you're right, Vic.
- 16:07Speaker 1: That's another one. What floor are you on? Carpet?
- 16:10Speaker 2: I demand.
- 16:13Speaker 2: Specificity.
- 16:14Speaker 7: That's my one and only demand.
- 16:16Speaker 1: Specificity. You would be impossible to have a conversation with.
- 16:21Speaker 1: Who's that? Who's the... Oh, who's the older guy that
- 16:27Speaker 1: always wears the suits that talks to....
- 16:31Speaker 3: Neil deGrasse Tyson?
- 16:33Speaker 1: No. Peterson. Whatever that guy's name is. Jordan Peterson? Yes,
- 16:38Speaker 1: that guy. Where it's always like, do you love cheesesteaks? Well,
- 16:42Speaker 1: what do you mean by love? It's like, how am
- 16:45Speaker 1: I supposed to have a conversation with you? There's a
- 16:48Speaker 1: colloquial nature in which we talk to each other. We
- 16:50Speaker 1: know what words mean.
- 16:51Speaker 2: There's, I guess, the ultimate test of specificity.
- 16:56Speaker 1: Do you mean a door?
- 16:58Speaker 6: Do you mean?
- 16:59Speaker 2: What was the name of that John Travolta movie where
- 17:03Speaker 2: he had a brain tumor?
- 17:06Speaker 1: But he became like this genius.
- 17:08Speaker 2: But they thought he was an alien?
- 17:10Speaker 1: Kasoff?
- 17:11Speaker 2: No, it was a phenomenon?
- 17:12Speaker 1: Is that what it's called? I think that's it, yeah.
- 17:15Speaker 1: Saturday Night Fever.
- 17:16Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what it is. Yeah, he's getting down in
- 17:18Speaker 2: the dance club. Face-off. Specificity, yeah. No, but the scientist
- 17:23Speaker 2: is asking him to be specific. You remember that?
- 17:26Speaker 1: No, he's like.
- 17:27Speaker 2: He's asking him a question like.
- 17:29Speaker 1: What's somebody's birthday if they were born in 1962? Well,
- 17:31Speaker 1: what time? Well, what part of the Earth? Well, what hospital?
- 17:35Speaker 1: What time zone? That's Vic right now.
- 17:37Speaker 2: Yeah, if you can find that, I think before the
- 17:40Speaker 2: end of the show... That will be a Vic Lombardi.
- 17:44Speaker 2: That will be his epitaph right there.
- 17:46Speaker 7: Is one of my feet going to be off the ground?
- 17:47Speaker 2: Of course.
- 17:47Speaker 1: Does that look like I'm launching? Look at me right now.
- 17:50Speaker 1: Look at me right now.
- 17:50Speaker 7: Do I look like I'm launching?
- 17:51Speaker 1: I'm running. I'm running at a human being.
- 17:53Speaker 2: What floor are you on?
- 17:55Speaker 1: I'm on a carpet here. All right. Anyway, Chad Brown
- 18:04Speaker 1: is going to join us at 8, Leggy at 9.
- 18:07Speaker 1: We have another game tonight that's right here on 92.5
- 18:10Speaker 1: at 6.30. It is Niners and Rams in Australia. But
- 18:14Speaker 1: Mojo asked this question. You said after seeing the results
- 18:18Speaker 1: of last night's game, was last year fluke for the Patriots?
- 18:26Speaker 6: Let me ask you a question.
- 18:28Speaker 7: Their schedule was easy. Their schedule was easy. Their division
- 18:31Speaker 7: is easy. So there's no denying that.
- 18:34Speaker 1: And fluke's a tough word because you can only play
- 18:37Speaker 1: the schedule in front. They got the bills in their division.
- 18:38Speaker 1: I mean, they got the bills. But here's the question
- 18:41Speaker 1: I'd ask you. If on Monday night the exact same
- 18:45Speaker 1: thing plays out, Bo Nix does that, what would we
- 18:48Speaker 1: be thinking? Bo Nix pulls a... The same thing. It's
- 18:53Speaker 1: an ugly game. You're up 10-0. Fourth quarter hits, and
- 18:57Speaker 1: he throws three picks, including that one, at the end
- 18:59Speaker 1: of the game. Shot back, threw it to the other team.
- 19:01Speaker 1: What do we think?
- 19:02Speaker 7: We would be very disappointed, but that's very un-Bo Nix-like.
- 19:05Speaker 7: I think you hit on that in the first segment,
- 19:07Speaker 7: and you were perfectly accurate there.
- 19:09Speaker 1: This is what he.
- 19:10Speaker 7: Does not do, and this is what makes him valuable,
- 19:12Speaker 7: and that's why Sean Payton likes him, because he doesn't
- 19:15Speaker 7: do what we saw last night.
- 19:16Speaker 9: Exactly.
- 19:17Speaker 1: Exactly. And, well, here's the thing. I didn't think Drake
- 19:20Speaker 1: May did that either. That's what weirded me out. Drake
- 19:24Speaker 1: May had one game where he threw multiple interceptions last year. Ironically,
- 19:27Speaker 1: the Super Bowl was that game. That was it.
- 19:30Speaker 6: And he had three and a quarter.
- 19:31Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 19:32Speaker 7: You know, if you take each pick, the first one, okay,
- 19:37Speaker 7: you're trying to drive the ball downfield.
- 19:39Speaker 1: Tipped up in the air. Exactly.
- 19:41Speaker 2: Gets tipped.
- 19:41Speaker 1: That's sort of fluky. But whatever. It's still a dangerous pass.
- 19:45Speaker 1: It looked like bracket coverage. Second one, again.
- 19:49Speaker 7: another pick that didn't need to throw it there.
- 19:52Speaker 2: The third one.
- 19:53Speaker 1: The second pick, too, if you remember, that was the
- 19:56Speaker 1: play after Romeo Dobbs.
- 19:58Speaker 6: Had to go right through his hands.
- 19:59Speaker 1: Exactly.
- 20:00Speaker 7: And then Julian Love just crosses the entire field to
- 20:03Speaker 7: go get the ball. Great play by the Seahawks safety.
- 20:07Speaker 7: By the way, they got some. Ballers, some ball hops.
- 20:10Speaker 1: Julian Love's a good player, man. He's a very good player.
- 20:13Speaker 7: But anyway, the last one is the one.
- 20:16Speaker 1: That's the one.
- 20:17Speaker 7: Just totally unnecessary.
- 20:19Speaker 1: And I picture Bo in that situation. Because what was it?
- 20:23Speaker 7: Was it second down at the time?
- 20:26Speaker 1: Yeah, they had time and downs to try and get
- 20:29Speaker 1: in the end zone. If nothing else, just kick the
- 20:31Speaker 1: field goal.
- 20:32Speaker 5: Exactly.
- 20:32Speaker 1: This isn't a fourth quarter.
- 20:33Speaker 8: We got to find pay dirt or we're done. It
- 20:36Speaker 8: was a, hey, you're already in bonus range. You're already
- 20:39Speaker 8: going to tie the game. You're sending it to overtime against.
- 20:42Speaker 2: A backup quarterback.
- 20:44Speaker 1: It was 35. Still unnecessary.
- 20:46Speaker 2: Just throw it out of bounds and you've got a
- 20:47Speaker 2: tie game.
- 20:48Speaker 7: Yeah, that Dobbs drop, by the way.
- 20:50Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 20:51Speaker 2: Yeah, that's brutal.
- 20:54Speaker 1: Dude, think about this, though. God, I forgot. They started
- 21:00Speaker 1: that drive with five minutes and 50 seconds on the
- 21:05Speaker 1: clock It was a 15-play, 57-yard drive that they milked
- 21:13Speaker 1: the entire clock, did exactly what they're supposed to do,
- 21:16Speaker 1: which is at least give us a chip shot field
- 21:18Speaker 1: goal to send this thing into OT, and to have
- 21:21Speaker 1: it end on that, that mistake. I mean, we just
- 21:25Speaker 1: played Drew Goodman the other day for the Little League
- 21:28Speaker 1: stuff that the Rockies did in the first inning a
- 21:30Speaker 1: couple days ago. Hearing Tarika, who I think is excellent
- 21:35Speaker 1: at play-by-play, I think he's really good at it, Hearing
- 21:37Speaker 1: Tirico go, what was the exact thing he said? An
- 21:43Speaker 1: absolutely embarrassing decision or something like that. A terrible decision.
- 21:47Speaker 1: You do that immediately. You got a play-by-play guy doing that.
- 21:51Speaker 1: That is, it's got to be so egregious.
- 21:53Speaker 2: So egregious.
- 21:55Speaker 8: And the pick happened right in front of Barefoot Guy,
- 21:57Speaker 8: who was killing the Seahawks last night. Barefoot Guy made
- 22:00Speaker 8: a couple great.
- 22:00Speaker 1: Catches in the fourth quarter.
- 22:02Speaker 6: Matt Collins?
- 22:02Speaker 1: Yeah, and I was getting tired of Barefoot Guy.
- 22:04Speaker 7: Yeah. You remember last year?
- 22:07Speaker 1: Oh, I know.
- 22:08Speaker 7: Remember what he did coming into Denver? Do you guys
- 22:10Speaker 7: remember the act?
- 22:12Speaker 1: The theater? The little performance he put on? Oh, the
- 22:14Speaker 1: Warriors come out and play.
- 22:16Speaker 6: Yeah, that thing.
- 22:18Speaker 1: See, those are the little.
- 22:19Speaker 7: Things I just don't forget. Little things like that. Jaden
- 22:22Speaker 7: McDaniels talking noise. Matt Collins doing his theater. I just
- 22:27Speaker 7: don't forget that stuff. So it was a joy to
- 22:30Speaker 7: watch him go after the ball and have it get
- 22:32Speaker 7: picked in the end zone.
- 22:33Speaker 1: It did feel good that the Patriots lost yesterday. What
- 22:37Speaker 1: is it?
- 22:37Speaker 7: I mean, am I the only one, guys, am I
- 22:39Speaker 7: the only one, Denver, am I the only one who
- 22:41Speaker 7: really enjoys watching New England lose?
- 22:43Speaker 1: Yes, Vic, you're the only one.
- 22:46Speaker 2: I think that everybody loves this. Well, I don't know
- 22:48Speaker 2: that I breakdance in my living room, but it's.
- 22:52Speaker 1: One of the great joys for me.
- 22:53Speaker 7: Hate watching, the NFL's popular because there's a lot of
- 22:56Speaker 7: hate watching that goes on.
- 22:57Speaker 1: You know, it's very territorial.
- 22:59Speaker 7: And hate watching the Patriots for me is one of
- 23:02Speaker 7: the great pleasures in life.
- 23:04Speaker 6: I would agree.
- 23:05Speaker 1: I think so, too.
- 23:06Speaker 2: If the Packers get beat up by somebody, what do
- 23:08Speaker 2: you do?
- 23:09Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
- 23:10Speaker 6: Yeah, I feel good.
- 23:11Speaker 2: Feel good, huh?
- 23:12Speaker 9: Uh-huh.
- 23:12Speaker 2: Feels good.
- 23:13Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 23:16Speaker 1: Here's the deal. When you look at where these two
- 23:19Speaker 1: teams are kind of set up, and I'm going to
- 23:21Speaker 1: make an analogy here. And I did this in the
- 23:23Speaker 1: appetizer on a subject I know nothing about, which is business.
- 23:29Speaker 1: Starting a business. I tried to explain this as best
- 23:34Speaker 1: I could. I think I did an okay job. I'll
- 23:36Speaker 1: try and bring it to you again. I know that
- 23:39Speaker 1: Bo Nix is not going to do what Drake made
- 23:41Speaker 1: did yesterday. Like he's just, that's not in his DNA.
- 23:45Speaker 1: He's not going to make those mistakes in that moment,
- 23:47Speaker 1: especially one as stupid as that last throw was. So
- 23:53Speaker 1: the exciting part about this year for me is you're
- 23:56Speaker 1: going to get a true read on what drew, or
- 23:59Speaker 1: I'm sorry, what Bo Nix is. And, I said, right now,
- 24:03Speaker 1: it feels like Bo Nix is a mall Santa or
- 24:08Speaker 1: he's a spirit Halloween. He has one portion of the
- 24:12Speaker 1: game that he is just crushes it. Absolutely nails it.
- 24:19Speaker 1: But in April. Spirit Halloween's not making money, right? You
- 24:24Speaker 1: have this portion of the calendar, or in this case,
- 24:27Speaker 1: the game, where he is as good as you could
- 24:30Speaker 1: ever ask anything to be.
- 24:33Speaker 6: But it needs to be a year-round business now.
- 24:35Speaker 7: Do you use that analogy because, like, Clockwork, the building
- 24:38Speaker 7: right next to ours, the Spirit.
- 24:40Speaker 1: Halloween sign's already open. Oh, it's up and running, baby. No, no, no,
- 24:43Speaker 1: it's open. Oh, it's open already? They were putting stuff
- 24:46Speaker 1: in there in, like, June.
- 24:47Speaker 2: Yeah, they were. Yeah.
- 24:49Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 24:50Speaker 1: But what I'm saying is I need him to be
- 24:53Speaker 1: a year-round business and not just a seasonal business, okay?
- 24:57Speaker 1: And look, if you're going to crush any season, Christmas, Halloween,
- 25:03Speaker 1: pretty good one to do it. Really good one to
- 25:05Speaker 1: do it. But I need some sales in February too.
- 25:08Speaker 1: I need that.
- 25:08Speaker 6: And that's his biggest challenge, right? It's I know what
- 25:11Speaker 6: you do in the fourth quarter.
- 25:13Speaker 1: I know you aren't doing the Drake May stuff of
- 25:15Speaker 1: blowing a game with a bad interception to close things out.
- 25:18Speaker 1: But I need the first quarter to be better. I
- 25:20Speaker 1: need you to do something in the first half. I
- 25:22Speaker 1: need to have a lead going in the second half.
- 25:24Speaker 7: Well, Bo Nix was named one of the nine Broncos captains.
- 25:27Speaker 8: Can we play another trivia game? Can I trust Mosier
- 25:30Speaker 8: not to cheat if I ask you to play a game?
- 25:33Speaker 1: Can we go there or should I? Has he violated
- 25:35Speaker 1: all rules? I'm going to turn off his computer. I'm
- 25:37Speaker 1: going to power it down. In fact, I'll tell you
- 25:39Speaker 1: what I'm going to do. I'm going to get rid
- 25:41Speaker 1: of it. Just so there's no question. About authenticity here,
- 25:46Speaker 1: I'm going to close everything down.
- 25:48Speaker 2: Authenticity?
- 25:50Speaker 3: Go to this other microphone here so I can watch
- 25:52Speaker 3: your screen.
- 25:53Speaker 2: Yes. I shouldn't have to.
- 25:55Speaker 1: Oh, yes, you should.
- 25:56Speaker 2: I trust you here.
- 25:57Speaker 1: I'll trust you here. Just give me a little shift.
- 25:59Speaker 1: There you go. That's all I need. That's all I need.
- 26:01Speaker 1: Make sure the camera's on you. Here we go. Here
- 26:02Speaker 1: we go.
- 26:03Speaker 7: And this is a very.
- 26:04Speaker 2: You guys are amazing. It's off.
- 26:05Speaker 1: Well, no, this is what you get when you cheat openly.
- 26:08Speaker 7: If you heard the show yesterday, Mosher cheated during a
- 26:10Speaker 7: little game we played, and it was obvious.
- 26:12Speaker 1: We got proof of it. Raj got it.
- 26:14Speaker 7: It's the most circumstantial evidence case in the history of radio.
- 26:16Speaker 7: He's going to be forever doubted for the rest of
- 26:17Speaker 7: his life.
- 26:19Speaker 1: How did that bloody glove get there?
- 26:20Speaker 2: Who knows?
- 26:22Speaker 1: Hey, did the Avs really score? We don't know.
- 26:25Speaker 7: Here's the deal. Nine Broncos captains.
- 26:30Speaker 1: Name them.
- 26:31Speaker 2: Wow. Wow, bro.
- 26:33Speaker 1: Bo Nix.
- 26:33Speaker 2: All right.
- 26:34Speaker 7: Bo Nix is one.
- 26:37Speaker 2: Uh, Pat Sertan.
- 26:38Speaker 1: PS2 is two.
- 26:40Speaker 2: But why do you need nine captains? I don't know.
- 26:42Speaker 7: I thought that was excessive as well.
- 26:45Speaker 1: Uh, Garrett Bowles is not on this list. What? That's
- 26:47Speaker 1: strike one. You get three strikes, by the way. That's
- 26:50Speaker 1: strike one.
- 26:50Speaker 2: How about, is Nick Benito on the list?
- 26:53Speaker 1: That's strike two, ladies and gentlemen. I was going to
- 26:55Speaker 1: overrule him before that. Corlin Sutton. Corlin Sutton is on
- 26:59Speaker 1: the list. Yes. Here's the one. I want to get
- 27:02Speaker 1: the one that's a curveball because I just saw this yesterday.
- 27:04Speaker 1: It's got to be a special team. It was a
- 27:06Speaker 1: special team and the dude was surprised when he got it.
- 27:09Speaker 1: Hang on, hang on.
- 27:11Speaker 9: Is it.
- 27:15Speaker 1: Is it Devon Key? Yes.
- 27:17Speaker 2: Yeah. He's the newest addition to the list.
- 27:20Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you, thank you.
- 27:21Speaker 2: Good, good, Paul.
- 27:22Speaker 1: So you got four of them so far. Okay, Lutz.
- 27:27Speaker 1: Will Lutz is on that list. Okay. Wait, wait, wait.
- 27:29Speaker 2: You're Place kicker's a captain? Well, they always kind of give.
- 27:32Speaker 6: A kicker a punter a captain, yeah. We're at five?
- 27:35Speaker 1: You're at five.
- 27:36Speaker 7: Four more.
- 27:37Speaker 1: Four more Broncos.
- 27:38Speaker 2: McGlinchey!
- 27:40Speaker 3: Huh?
- 27:41Speaker 2: How many more strikes do we have? How many more strikes?
- 27:43Speaker 1: Wait, that's it. Strike three's out.
- 27:45Speaker 6: No, you didn't hear it.
- 27:46Speaker 2: It's over.
- 27:46Speaker 1: You didn't hear what it was. You didn't hear it.
- 27:49Speaker 1: See you later.
- 27:49Speaker 7: Quinn Miners.
- 27:51Speaker 2: Singleton on there?
- 27:51Speaker 7: Alex Singleton.
- 27:52Speaker 2: Yay!
- 27:53Speaker 1: DJ Jones.
- 27:54Speaker 2: See, I was going to say Singleton.
- 27:55Speaker 7: And Talanoa Hufunga.
- 27:57Speaker 2: Who Fong is on there. Yes.
- 27:58Speaker 1: Those are your nine Broncos. Hey, but I got Devon Key.
- 28:01Speaker 1: Devon Key's a good one. That's a good pull. That
- 28:03Speaker 1: was a good pull.
- 28:04Speaker 2: I recall, though, I mean, does it really matter?
- 28:06Speaker 1: Well, it matters for this.
- 28:07Speaker 2: I recall when Trevor Simeon was named a captain, and
- 28:09Speaker 2: I'm like.
- 28:10Speaker 1: Well, that's just it.
- 28:11Speaker 2: I mean, come on, man.
- 28:12Speaker 7: I've seen Broncos teams where the quarterback is not named
- 28:15Speaker 7: a captain, and I'm here to tell you, the quarterback
- 28:18Speaker 7: position by nature, if you're not a captain, you're wasting
- 28:22Speaker 7: everybody's time, right? Isn't that? Isn't that a fair deal?
- 28:26Speaker 7: I mean, you have to be a captain if you're not,
- 28:29Speaker 7: if you're a quarterback.
- 28:30Speaker 2: I don't think captaincy in football makes as big a
- 28:33Speaker 2: difference as it does in... No, Vic's right.
- 28:36Speaker 7: If you're on the football team, an NFL football team,
- 28:39Speaker 7: you're the quarterback, and you're not one of the captains?
- 28:42Speaker 2: Is Tua a captain with Atlanta?
- 28:44Speaker 7: No.
- 28:45Speaker 1: What does that say? That's my point.
- 28:47Speaker 2: Well, he's brand new. I guess it means you suck.
- 28:49Speaker 1: That's my point.
- 28:50Speaker 7: My point is, if you're not a captain, and you're
- 28:52Speaker 7: the quarterback, that speaks volumes.
- 28:55Speaker 6: You're in some trouble.
- 28:57Speaker 1: Yeah. They will do that as a courtesy to somebody
- 29:01Speaker 1: they don't even believe in. 100%.
- 29:03Speaker 2: Trevor Simeon. Was it Vaughn who was like, oh, yeah,
- 29:06Speaker 2: we all voted? And I'm like, no, nobody voted for
- 29:08Speaker 2: T-Rev to be a captain. That was a Koob's thing,
- 29:12Speaker 2: I think.
- 29:13Speaker 1: Yeah, but the picture says Tom Brady never wore a C.
- 29:20Speaker 2: They don't wear Cs.
- 29:21Speaker 1: Maybe they do differently over there. I mean, this team
- 29:23Speaker 1: announces nine captains. I mean, Tom Brady was pretty clearly
- 29:25Speaker 1: a captain of the Patriots. Can we all agree?
- 29:28Speaker 2: Yeah, but they don't put that on your uniform in
- 29:31Speaker 2: the NFL.
- 29:33Speaker 1: They do.
- 29:33Speaker 2: They do?
- 29:34Speaker 6: Some teams do, I think.
- 29:35Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever seen a C on a
- 29:37Speaker 2: guy like hockey.
- 29:39Speaker 1: Football players have... I mean, find me a photo of one.
- 29:45Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever seen it before.
- 29:48Speaker 1: Yeah, the captaincy thing is not like.
- 29:50Speaker 2: I swear they used to. Maybe in college or something.
- 29:55Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't think I've ever seen that.
- 29:58Speaker 1: Well... They're everywhere. I don't know if it still happens.
- 30:01Speaker 1: They're everywhere.
- 30:03Speaker 7: We've had this conversation before.
- 30:04Speaker 1: Mahomes has it. Jalen Hurts has it. He's got a
- 30:06Speaker 1: C on his uniform. Andrew Whitworth had it. Travis Kelsey
- 30:09Speaker 1: has it. Saquon Barkley has it. Why do I not
- 30:12Speaker 1: recall that then?
- 30:13Speaker 7: Captaincy is vital in hockey. It's the most important sport
- 30:17Speaker 7: with the captain, right?
- 30:18Speaker 1: That's it. You got a captain.
- 30:21Speaker 7: One. And then from there, football's got a hundred captains.
- 30:24Speaker 7: Everybody's a captain. Basketball's weird. Like, There is no captain, really. Like,
- 30:30Speaker 7: the Nuggets didn't have a captain. Do you remember how
- 30:33Speaker 7: emotional Nikola Jokic got when he went to Team Serbia
- 30:36Speaker 7: and they named him captain?
- 30:37Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 30:38Speaker 3: And he said, well, it's an honor.
- 30:39Speaker 2: Baseball, in terms of captains, baseball doesn't really have a captain,
- 30:43Speaker 2: do they?
- 30:43Speaker 1: Well, Derek Jeter.
- 30:44Speaker 2: I mean, that's the only guy I can think of
- 30:46Speaker 2: where he was Captain Yankee, but that's about it.
- 30:48Speaker 1: Yeah, you have captains in baseball, too. You do? Yes.
- 30:52Speaker 2: Dude, it's... Who's the captain of the Colorado Rockies?
- 30:56Speaker 1: I don't know if they announce it or do it.
- 30:58Speaker 1: But as a team, you have it.
- 31:00Speaker 2: Okay.
- 31:01Speaker 1: Well, look, the way it's done in the NHL. Every
- 31:02Speaker 1: team I played on, you voted for a captain.
- 31:05Speaker 2: Really?
- 31:05Speaker 9: Yes.
- 31:07Speaker 1: What is the responsibility?
- 31:08Speaker 2: Never had that all through my sporting life like that.
- 31:11Speaker 6: Who has C's on their shirts, Moj?
- 31:13Speaker 1: Other than the quarterback of the Broncos. The guy who
- 31:16Speaker 1: was just voted captain.
- 31:18Speaker 2: See, I don't even recall those.
- 31:20Speaker 1: Seats being there. And I think the stars underneath there
- 31:22Speaker 1: are how many times you've been voted that. And then
- 31:25Speaker 1: they go to some gold lettering if you've had a
- 31:27Speaker 1: million of them.
- 31:27Speaker 2: Really?
- 31:28Speaker 1: Yes.
- 31:29Speaker 2: Why is that not even in my brain?
- 31:31Speaker 1: I was like, what do you mean they don't wear seats?
- 31:34Speaker 1: And I just told Nellie, I go, pull up a
- 31:35Speaker 1: picture of Bo Nix, please.
- 31:37Speaker 7: See, that's from Mosier, who's never worn a letter jacket.
- 31:41Speaker 1: He didn't have any bars on his letter jacket. But
- 31:43Speaker 1: he had speech and debate.
- 31:45Speaker 2: The hell I don't... Okay. He had speech and debate
- 31:47Speaker 2: on his letters.
- 31:48Speaker 7: He had the bar for speech and debate, and that's
- 31:50Speaker 7: where it stopped.
- 31:50Speaker 1: And that's why.
- 31:51Speaker 2: Why didn't I bring it in? And by the way,
- 31:53Speaker 2: I could have lettered probably in everything at Holy Family.
- 31:57Speaker 2: All you had to do was show up and say,
- 31:59Speaker 2: thank God, and then you get a letter jacket. Okay.
- 32:02Speaker 7: I mean, there's another prominent C displayed after a game.
- 32:05Speaker 2: There's a couple of Cs out there, yeah. Hey, guys,
- 32:07Speaker 2: nobody wears a C in football. Well, I completely, completely
- 32:11Speaker 2: spaced that.
- 32:12Speaker 1: I mean, that's not even.
- 32:14Speaker 2: Look at P. Wills over here in the corner. Look
- 32:16Speaker 2: at him. Completely spaced that in my brain. That didn't
- 32:19Speaker 2: even register with me.
- 32:20Speaker 1: For those listening and not watching on Twitch or on
- 32:25Speaker 1: YouTube or on Altitude Television. All we did was pull
- 32:28Speaker 1: up a picture of Bo Nix.
- 32:29Speaker 9: True.
- 32:30Speaker 1: That's all we did.
- 32:31Speaker 2: That's true. I mean, with God as my witness, that
- 32:35Speaker 2: absolutely does not resonate with me at all.
- 32:38Speaker 7: Did you think he represented a company?
- 32:40Speaker 2: Do you think he was selling something?
- 32:41Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought he was a two-star general. He's in
- 32:43Speaker 1: the Coast Guard with a C.
- 32:44Speaker 2: Coast Guard.
- 32:45Speaker 1: MLB teams rarely have official team captains, but there are
- 32:48Speaker 1: two in the MLB right now. Aaron Judge for the
- 32:51Speaker 1: Yankees and Salvador Perez for the Royals.
- 32:54Speaker 2: All right. You know, there are some NHL teams, when
- 32:58Speaker 2: they go through transition, they won't have a captain. You
- 33:03Speaker 2: know that?
- 33:04Speaker 1: Like what transition? Transition from like a captain?
- 33:06Speaker 2: Like let's say their captain got traded or something of
- 33:08Speaker 2: that nature and there's nobody ready to take over that
- 33:11Speaker 2: captaincy yet. Like maybe you have a couple of 20-year-olds
- 33:13Speaker 2: who are studs.
- 33:15Speaker 6: The Avs went three years with nobody wearing a C.
- 33:19Speaker 1: That's true.
- 33:19Speaker 2: Well, they had a captain. He just couldn't play.
- 33:22Speaker 1: He wasn't really in the building every day.
- 33:24Speaker 2: No, he was not. No.
- 33:26Speaker 1: That's pretty much what you're talking about here. It's not
- 33:28Speaker 1: like they weren't transitioning per se, but....
- 33:32Speaker 7: This conversation is now going to cause me to turn
- 33:34Speaker 7: the channel.
- 33:37Speaker 1: Pull up a picture of Bo Nix.
- 33:39Speaker 2: You're part of it.
- 33:40Speaker 1: The NFL is going down under. Do you know that?
- 33:43Speaker 1: The Rams and 49ers meet in Melbourne, Australia. One-of-a-kind showdown.
- 33:47Speaker 1: Catch all the action live starting at 6 on Altitude
- 33:50Speaker 1: Sports Radio, your home for the NFL on Westwood 1
- 33:52Speaker 1: back after this. Texture says, Kaner, is that game that's
- 33:55Speaker 1: on 92.5 tonight between the Rams and the Niners at
- 33:58Speaker 1: 6 o'clock local time or 6 o'clock Australia time? You
- 34:01Speaker 1: did not specify.
- 34:04Speaker 2: We've got something at the end of this segment that is...
- 34:07Speaker 2: It's going to make a lot of sense for those
- 34:08Speaker 2: who have been with the program so far today for
- 34:11Speaker 2: 44 minutes. So stay tuned for all of that. Again,
- 34:13Speaker 2: back to last night, though, and I don't know what
- 34:15Speaker 2: the heck is going to happen tonight in Australia. Where's
- 34:19Speaker 2: that game being played? It's some cricket ground someplace or something.
- 34:22Speaker 1: It's being played in Australia.
- 34:24Speaker 2: Yeah, I know. There's a lot.
- 34:26Speaker 1: On grass.
- 34:29Speaker 6: Can you turn off your phone that's playing music or
- 34:31Speaker 6: something over there?
- 34:32Speaker 1: What's going on? I don't think so.
- 34:33Speaker 2: It's not turned up. I don't know what you're talking about.
- 34:36Speaker 1: You just hit something, and now it's not doing it anymore.
- 34:38Speaker 1: Would you just take responsibility?
- 34:40Speaker 3: It's going to be at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
- 34:43Speaker 2: Melbourne. So there's Melbourne. Here's what I know about Australia.
- 34:46Speaker 7: Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Steve's Town, that other place.
- 34:58Speaker 6: I know nothing about Australia.
- 34:59Speaker 2: So I only know like maybe a handful of cities,
- 35:03Speaker 2: but I know the biggies.
- 35:04Speaker 1: I know their voices are funny.
- 35:06Speaker 6: I know that Margot Robbie's hot.
- 35:09Speaker 1: That's two things I know.
- 35:10Speaker 2: It's a big circle.
- 35:12Speaker 1: All right.
- 35:14Speaker 2: Whatever it takes.
- 35:15Speaker 1: I'm going to be... Can I... Am I in the
- 35:17Speaker 1: trust tree? Am I?
- 35:21Speaker 7: You can be totally confident that if you say something foolish,
- 35:24Speaker 7: we will not make fun of you.
- 35:26Speaker 2: But I.
- 35:30Speaker 1: Have not seen nor know a single rule of cricket.
- 35:36Speaker 1: I don't know what the sport is. I don't know
- 35:40Speaker 1: how you score. I don't know when the game ends.
- 35:47Speaker 1: I don't know a single player who plays cricket.
- 35:50Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 35:52Speaker 1: I didn't know that the stadiums were circles.
- 35:55Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 35:56Speaker 1: Let me follow up.
- 35:58Speaker 7: I did a story on cricket. At one point, trying
- 36:01Speaker 7: to describe the sport. Back when I was on the news.
- 36:06Speaker 1: And upon doing that story, I still don't know what
- 36:09Speaker 1: the point is. Crickets. I don't know what they're holding.
- 36:14Speaker 1: I don't know why they bounce the ball.
- 36:16Speaker 2: The guy who pitches, I think, is called a bowler.
- 36:18Speaker 1: He is a bowler.
- 36:19Speaker 3: That's correct.
- 36:20Speaker 2: I got that right. And then the three sticks are
- 36:22Speaker 2: called wickets. I know that.
- 36:24Speaker 1: I don't know why they throw the ball with that
- 36:26Speaker 1: weird arm upright.
- 36:29Speaker 2: Motion?
- 36:29Speaker 1: Just throw it?
- 36:30Speaker 3: You're not allowed to bend at the elbow, which is
- 36:33Speaker 3: why they bring their arm straight up and over. They
- 36:35Speaker 3: keep it locked the whole time.
- 36:37Speaker 1: What happens? What do you mean you're not allowed? What
- 36:39Speaker 1: happens if you do?
- 36:41Speaker 3: You just can't bend your elbow when you throw.
- 36:44Speaker 1: Is it a violation?
- 36:45Speaker 3: That I don't know. But that's why they whip their
- 36:48Speaker 3: arm directly over their head and then it has to
- 36:50Speaker 3: hit the ground before it goes to the wickets. They
- 36:52Speaker 3: always bounce it before it goes to the batsman.
- 36:56Speaker 1: It's dumb.
- 36:57Speaker 2: You can hit it anywhere in the stadium, though, right?
- 36:59Speaker 3: Yes.
- 36:59Speaker 2: It can go anywhere, correct?
- 37:00Speaker 3: Any direction it goes off your bat, it is a
- 37:02Speaker 3: live ball. There is no foul or out of bounds
- 37:04Speaker 3: in cricket.
- 37:06Speaker 1: But then what happens? Then what?
- 37:08Speaker 3: You have to field it. If it goes directly behind
- 37:11Speaker 3: the batsmen, right behind them, someone's got to go get it.
- 37:13Speaker 1: But how do you score?
- 37:15Speaker 3: So there's some system of running between the wickets. That
- 37:17Speaker 3: I don't fully understand. But if the ball goes over
- 37:20Speaker 3: the small lower wall at the boundary right in front
- 37:24Speaker 3: of the stands, if it bounces over that, I believe
- 37:27Speaker 3: it's four points, but if you knock it into the
- 37:29Speaker 3: stands directly, that's six points.
- 37:31Speaker 1: And then what?
- 37:31Speaker 6: Hang on, I'm going to tell you something right now.
- 37:33Speaker 1: Way too many people are watching that sport. When does
- 37:36Speaker 1: it end?
- 37:37Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not sure how the overs work.
- 37:38Speaker 1: Yeah, I've heard that these things last like days.
- 37:42Speaker 6: These games last days.
- 37:43Speaker 1: No, thank you.
- 37:44Speaker 2: Nope.
- 37:44Speaker 1: Nope, nope, nope.
- 37:46Speaker 3: I will say, when I was in India for that wedding,
- 37:49Speaker 3: the hotel I was staying at, the TV that they
- 37:51Speaker 3: had in the lobby, cricket highlights or full game replays 24-7. Well,
- 37:55Speaker 3: I'll tell you this. The whole time I was.
- 37:57Speaker 1: There, just cricket. From dude throwing the ball without bending
- 37:59Speaker 1: your elbow like a zombie.
- 38:01Speaker 3: That was dope.
- 38:03Speaker 1: Imagine this, Vic. Imagine that game gets... They stopped the
- 38:08Speaker 1: game last night, and we jump on the air this morning.
- 38:10Speaker 1: We're like, that was a heck of a first quarter.
- 38:12Speaker 1: Can't wait to see what happens today.
- 38:15Speaker 2: What are we doing?
- 38:16Speaker 1: What is that?
- 38:18Speaker 2: It's kind of like what it is, I think. It's
- 38:21Speaker 2: like the game to me, it's like somebody said, you know,
- 38:25Speaker 2: I like a little bit of that game. You know,
- 38:27Speaker 2: I kind of like some of that. Like, let's just
- 38:29Speaker 2: do a game where we just throw a bunch of
- 38:31Speaker 2: stuff out there and whatever.
- 38:33Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 38:35Speaker 6: It's the charity make Dennis of sports.
- 38:37Speaker 2: Well, the reason I brought it up is like, Last night, A.J. Brown,
- 38:41Speaker 2: I don't know what his ankle's going to do. I
- 38:42Speaker 2: don't know. Who knows about Sam Darnold? Drake May threw
- 38:44Speaker 2: three picks in the fourth quarter. Like, kind of a
- 38:48Speaker 2: bam start. And, again, you try to get through these
- 38:51Speaker 2: things unscathed. But if you're Sean Payton and you're trying
- 38:55Speaker 2: to get it into your quarterback's head, not that you
- 38:59Speaker 2: need to.
- 38:59Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 39:00Speaker 2: But you say, see? This is why I tell you,
- 39:04Speaker 2: throw the ball away. This is why I tell you,
- 39:06Speaker 2: don't take sacks. And this is why not turning the
- 39:10Speaker 2: football over is so valuable.
- 39:12Speaker 1: It's the negative plays, man. And it's something that if
- 39:14Speaker 1: there is an elite quality to Bo Nix, I think
- 39:17Speaker 1: that he excels in the category of not making negative plays. Now,
- 39:22Speaker 1: we'll get back to this in a bit with Chad Brown.
- 39:25Speaker 1: I do want to mention in the middle of the game,
- 39:28Speaker 1: news broke of the passing of Barry Miller. who was
- 39:30Speaker 1: obviously huge in the hockey community as player, coach, analyst,
- 39:34Speaker 1: all of it, Moj. I'm sure. Have you met Barry?
- 39:38Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. Multiple occasions. I didn't know him very well,
- 39:41Speaker 2: but we talked hockey on multiple occasions. The last time
- 39:44Speaker 2: I saw him was at the hotel bar after game
- 39:49Speaker 2: three of the 2022 Stanley Cup final. Might have been
- 39:54Speaker 2: game four. No, it was game three for sure. And
- 40:01Speaker 2: his situation progressed, I think, more quickly after that.
- 40:05Speaker 6: Gotcha.
- 40:06Speaker 2: But I said on my tweet last night, I said, yeah,
- 40:11Speaker 2: I didn't know him very well at all, but every
- 40:13Speaker 2: time we talked, he was very cool to me. But, Brett,
- 40:16Speaker 2: when hockey needed a Barry Melrose as a coach in L.A.
- 40:23Speaker 2: when Gretzky was there, right? And they went to the
- 40:25Speaker 2: Stanley Cup final and they lost to Patrick Wall and
- 40:27Speaker 2: the Montreal Canadiens in 1993. But, I mean, in that market,
- 40:34Speaker 2: it was huge. And then when he became an analyst, Vic,
- 40:38Speaker 2: when he became an analyst, The league really needed a
- 40:43Speaker 2: guy like that to be that kind of personality, that
- 40:46Speaker 2: kind of free spirit, funny guy, hockey dude, the hair,
- 40:51Speaker 2: the whole nine yards. The game really needed that guy.
- 40:54Speaker 2: They needed a spokesman. Yeah, they needed that guy.
- 40:57Speaker 7: For a generation of us, Barry Melrose taught us the game.
- 41:01Speaker 2: Yes.
- 41:02Speaker 7: He walked us through the game. He and Levy were
- 41:05Speaker 7: like Tom Jackson and Chris Berman for the NFL. I mean,
- 41:08Speaker 7: that's like must-watch. After a hockey game.
- 41:11Speaker 2: Yep.
- 41:11Speaker 7: That's exactly the role he played for many years.
- 41:15Speaker 1: So rest in peace, Barry Melrose, a Titan of the hockey.
- 41:21Speaker 1: I mean, it was just, I guess industry, whatever you
- 41:23Speaker 1: want to call it.
- 41:23Speaker 2: Yeah, it was, it was, I think coming, but man,
- 41:28Speaker 2: when it hits you like that in 70 years old,
- 41:30Speaker 2: it's just a, such a terrible disease.
- 41:33Speaker 1: It's just such a bummer.
- 41:35Speaker 6: Something about, you know, Game coming up Monday.
- 41:40Speaker 1: There is going to be this weird thing where we're
- 41:42Speaker 1: watching all these games get done and you have that
- 41:45Speaker 1: extra day that you have to wait that I think
- 41:47Speaker 1: is going to be a killer. And we'll get to
- 41:48Speaker 1: some of this audio that I want to play yesterday
- 41:51Speaker 1: from Portland Sutton a little bit later in the show.
- 41:55Speaker 1: What I am fascinated by with tonight's game is the
- 41:59Speaker 1: experiment of how do you handle the time zone? Do
- 42:05Speaker 1: you get to some place a week early or and acclimate,
- 42:09Speaker 1: or do you show up 24 hours before the game
- 42:12Speaker 1: and just hope everything on your body clock is the same?
- 42:16Speaker 8: You've never done the transatlantic journey, correct? You've been as
- 42:19Speaker 8: far as the Dominican?
- 42:21Speaker 6: Correct.
- 42:22Speaker 2: But Vic, you've got to go over the Pacific. I know.
- 42:26Speaker 1: He's talking about changing time zones and body clocks.
- 42:29Speaker 2: While we're being specific on this show today, you can't
- 42:32Speaker 2: say transatlantic.
- 42:34Speaker 7: Transpacific in this case.
- 42:35Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 42:37Speaker 1: It's even worse.
- 42:38Speaker 4: It is.
- 42:39Speaker 1: It's worse because it's more time.
- 42:42Speaker 7: Which part, Moj, as you've done it, which part gives
- 42:46Speaker 7: you the most jet lag? Arriving or returning?
- 42:49Speaker 2: Vic, the furthest I've gone west is Hawaii. I've never gone.
- 42:56Speaker 1: To the Far East.
- 42:57Speaker 2: I've never gone to Asia.
- 42:58Speaker 1: What is Hawaii?
- 42:59Speaker 6: Like six hours or something?
- 43:00Speaker 2: It could be opposite, but for me, coming back from Europe...
- 43:05Speaker 2: Is the worst. Is always the way harder adjustment than
- 43:07Speaker 2: going to Europe.
- 43:08Speaker 1: Totally agree.
- 43:09Speaker 2: Going to Europe, I got that knocked. Dude, I could
- 43:11Speaker 2: be on body clock like that. Coming home, I'm screwed
- 43:15Speaker 2: up for at least a week.
- 43:16Speaker 7: In my experience, it's the opposite doing the Trans-Pacific.
- 43:20Speaker 1: It's the opposite.
- 43:21Speaker 7: It's going there is worse than coming back. Well, because
- 43:25Speaker 7: you lose a day. It's like you're going into a
- 43:26Speaker 7: cosmic wormhole. But you leave on a Thursday and you'll
- 43:29Speaker 7: arrive on a Friday. More than that, these are professional athletes.
- 43:34Speaker 7: So the Rams have done something. Last year it worked
- 43:36Speaker 7: when they played in London. But you're on a plane
- 43:39Speaker 7: for all those hours and you're seated.
- 43:41Speaker 1: You're not moving around.
- 43:43Speaker 7: The body just sort of gets stale. And I wonder
- 43:46Speaker 7: how they handle that. How do they re-energize their bodies
- 43:50Speaker 7: in time to play a football game?
- 43:51Speaker 2: Well, is.
- 43:53Speaker 1: Are the Rams treating this like we aren't adjusting our
- 43:56Speaker 1: body clocks?
- 43:57Speaker 7: Yes, that's exactly what they're doing.
- 43:58Speaker 1: Like we're just going to pretend that it's still... That
- 44:00Speaker 1: we're in L.A.
- 44:01Speaker 2: Today.
- 44:02Speaker 1: That it's 9 p.m. in L.A., so it's 9 p.m.
- 44:05Speaker 1: here is how we're going to think of it.
- 44:07Speaker 2: So the Niners have been there for like a week.
- 44:10Speaker 1: They adjusted.
- 44:14Speaker 2: Legit question. Can you eat a koala?
- 44:20Speaker 6: I highly doubt it.
- 44:23Speaker 2: Can you eat a kangaroo?
- 44:25Speaker 1: Okay. Why are you asking this?
- 44:28Speaker 2: Because my guess is if you can. I didn't know
- 44:31Speaker 2: you could eat a moose until I went to Sweden.
- 44:33Speaker 1: Okay.
- 44:34Speaker 7: I'm just wondering.
- 44:35Speaker 2: I didn't know people ate moose.
- 44:37Speaker 1: All right. We're talking about time zones.
- 44:39Speaker 2: No, I know, but I'm saying the Niners have been
- 44:40Speaker 2: there for a week.
- 44:41Speaker 3: Okay, Grandpa.
- 44:42Speaker 1: All right, Grandpa.
- 44:42Speaker 7: We're talking about time zones.
- 44:43Speaker 1: We're talking about time adjustments.
- 44:44Speaker 2: They've cleaned the joint out of koala and kangaroo.
- 44:46Speaker 6: Okay, Grandpa, let's get him down.
- 44:47Speaker 1: Specifics, Pop. Let's put him down.
- 44:50Speaker 7: Time to put him down.
- 44:51Speaker 2: All right, so here's today's show. As we get to
- 44:53Speaker 2: the top here, when's Chad Brown coming on, please?
- 44:55Speaker 6: In five minutes.
- 44:55Speaker 2: Five minutes. This is Vic Lombardi today. This is what
- 44:58Speaker 2: we're talking about.
- 44:59Speaker 9: How old is a person born in 1928? Man or woman?
- 45:04Speaker 1: Why? Specifics, Bob.
- 45:07Speaker 9: Okay, one more time. How old is a man born
- 45:11Speaker 9: in 1928? Still alive. If a man is born in
- 45:14Speaker 9: 1928 and he's still alive, how old is he? What month?
