Dodgers Win Back-to-Back & Bengals Defense Stinks · Height Differential

• 0:01
  Give it, give it to me. Ready to do this.
• 0:14
  It's the high differential. We're back.
• 0:16
  Missed. Missed our show on Sunday, but
• 0:19
  for good reason. We all start off.
• 0:21
  First off, that's Neil the the 6-6 Neil, I'm the the 410, Nick.
• 0:25
  We missed the show on Sunday, but I would say for good reason.
• 0:29
  We were suffering. We were competing in the Rowdy
• 0:31
  Cup, first ever, first ever Rowdy Cup 4 on 4.
• 0:35
  Neil and I were on the same team.
• 0:38
  We. You were the captain.
• 0:40
  Don't, don't sell yourself short.
• 0:41
  You were the captain of the squad.
• 0:43
  I was a captain of the squad, but I thought that, you know, we
• 0:46
  did everything as a team. We discussed everything.
• 0:48
  Yeah. You don't start off slow.
• 0:53
  Well, two, we're down to oh, after scramble.
• 0:55
  Down to oh we lost the 1st 2:00 and.
• 0:57
  Then we go to alternate after that nine holes.
• 1:00
  You needed what would we hold on?
• 1:01
  We needed five and a half to win, right?
• 1:03
  You, yeah, I mean, five would have split it 5 1/2 to win, yes.
• 1:07
  So down to oh, right off the bat and.
• 1:08
  We right off the bat and did not play well, did not play well.
• 1:11
  I would I did not play well. You did not play well.
• 1:13
  And then we, we played together, we got off each other's team and
• 1:18
  that was planned anyways. It wasn't it was already
• 1:20
  planned. Like we had this, we had the
• 1:22
  team set. Then we played alternate and I,
• 1:26
  I think the point that your team got in that alternate was very
• 1:30
  crucial, beating probably the best player in, in the Rally
• 1:34
  Cup, you know, bringing that point home.
• 1:36
  And then Van and I were able to get the last two holes to secure
• 1:40
  a split, which ended up being huge.
• 1:42
  So we go into the last day down, what, 2 1/2 to 1 1/2?
• 1:48
  Two and a half 1/2. Yep.
• 1:51
  And then we split the four ball on Sunday morning.
• 1:55
  We go to singles and we're down one 3 1/2 to 2 1/2.
• 1:58
  You won your match. Joe got beat because he had a
• 2:02
  little too much to drink. So Matt beat him and I was able
• 2:08
  to beat Garrett who was playing as good as anybody all week with
• 2:11
  some good chips late and took all the Variety Cup in a pretty
• 2:16
  dramatic fashion and been on Cloud 9 pretty much ever since.
• 2:21
  Dramatic fashion's an understatement.
• 2:22
  I mean, it took us, we played it in the rain, played in, oh, it
• 2:26
  was awful in a little bit of cold, and we basically closed
• 2:31
  them out, or you closed out Garrett Garrett on hole 16.
• 2:35
  So we didn't even need to play the last two holes.
• 2:37
  And that round still took 5 1/2 hours.
• 2:39
  It was one of the most miserable rounds of all time.
• 2:43
  And I would say the back nine, those first four holes I played
• 2:45
  really well. And then we had like a 45 minute
• 2:48
  delay. We let that team, we let that
• 2:50
  couple play through and I was limping down down the stretch
• 2:54
  like it was cold. It was miserable.
• 2:56
  But luckily my gap wedge came through with two really good
• 3:00
  chips on 15 and 16 where I was able to one put and that that
• 3:05
  gap, that gap wedge one is the Dang thing.
• 3:07
  But. There you go.
• 3:09
  And we got we got to do this again.
• 3:10
  This was fun. Thanks to Joe Ziegler for
• 3:13
  allowing us to stay at the in laws place all week and all
• 3:16
  weekend and played down at Park Mammoth, played at Barren River,
• 3:19
  Barren River Lake State Course and just once the weather was a
• 3:22
  little warmer on Sunday. Yeah, that would have helped,
• 3:25
  you know, if we could have just played in that weather that we
• 3:28
  had today or Monday when it was 676567 degrees, beautiful and
• 3:33
  the sun was out. Beautiful on Monday too, yeah.
• 3:36
  We missed it by a day or two. I mean, I'm wearing thermal
• 3:39
  polo, thick quarter zip and a hoodie and AT Bob and the
• 3:44
  electric Cam warmers and it was, it was it was fighting through
• 3:48
  it a little bit and it was spitting a little bit.
• 3:50
  Yeah, yeah, it was not much fun, but winning always makes things
• 3:54
  better. It does and was great to win,
• 3:57
  was great to hang out with everybody and we're able to
• 4:00
  watch a lot of sports while we were down there.
• 4:02
  We watched Forever Young win the Breeders Cup, passing Sierra
• 4:07
  Leone late and the the same trifecta that we had last year,
• 4:10
  just in a different order as Sierra Leone came a second and
• 4:14
  Fierceness in third, the first Japanese horse to ever win the
• 4:17
  Classic. Watched a lot of football, but I
• 4:21
  think we got to start off with what you said maybe 500 times on
• 4:25
  Saturday night. This is the best World Series of
• 4:28
  all time. Of all time, Yeah, of all time.
• 4:31
  I mean, there have been some great ones then, you know, in
• 4:33
  our lifetimes, like we mentioned before we got on the show, you
• 4:36
  know, some of these Game 7 World Series that and most recently
• 4:40
  that come to mind. We're thinking like the Cubs
• 4:43
  went in their first one since 19.
• 4:44
  What O 8 or whatever it was over the Indians back in 16 Billy.
• 4:49
  Goat was. Was was lifted in extra innings
• 4:52
  in dramatic fashion on on that one.
• 4:55
  So that was a good one. We talked about the Yankees
• 4:58
  Diamondback series of 2001, the 90 what, 97 Indians in Marlins
• 5:05
  series when the Marlins pulled that one out.
• 5:07
  So then your Braves, I think your Braves.
• 5:10
  Twins. Braves, Twins in 91, so which
• 5:12
  really people said was the best seven games?
• 5:14
  I mean, there's there's been some good ones, but this one
• 5:17
  with arguably the greatest baseball player in the history
• 5:20
  of the game doing what he did and setting records of getting
• 5:23
  on base 9 times. We had an 18 inning game.
• 5:27
  We had walk off. We have any walk.
• 5:29
  No, we didn't have any walk off, but we had some late inning home
• 5:31
  runs in game seven. It's just, you know, and then
• 5:38
  some like the talent on these, like the talent just all around
• 5:41
  was probably some of the best we've seen.
• 5:43
  The dramatics. I mean, they have it was what
• 5:46
  did I see there was between the US, Canada and Japan, there was
• 5:49
  50 something million people tuned into Game 7, which is the
• 5:53
  most watched game that they've said in in a long, long time.
• 5:57
  So well. Those three countries are going
• 5:58
  to be interested. I mean sure, but 50 something
• 6:01
  million people tuned into the Game 7 like incredible,
• 6:04
  absolutely incredible, must watch TV and it was it's to me
• 6:08
  is the best best of all time, at least I.
• 6:10
  Mean it's the the Dodgers become the first team to repeat since
• 6:14
  the Yankees and the late 90's. The first National League team
• 6:17
  to repeat since the Reds did it with the Big Red Machine in the
• 6:20
  70s. They always say it's hard to
• 6:23
  knock down the champion, right? And you get down 3:00 to 2:00
• 6:25
  and you're going home. And the Blue Jays are feeling
• 6:27
  good and they figure out a way to win Game six and then Game 7.
• 6:32
  The Blue Jays are leading the whole way.
• 6:34
  Let's get into Game 7 because I I want you to give me some
• 6:37
  credit. You see, you don't give me
• 6:38
  credit this, you need to give me some.
• 6:40
  Credit. You're always asking for credit.
• 6:41
  You need to give it to me. We're sitting there.
• 6:43
  We're watching Game 7 and what so so the situation Will Smith
• 6:49
  hits that home run in the what were the 11th inning that.
• 6:53
  Was the 11th, but a lot happened before that to get to that
• 6:55
  point. That is true.
• 6:56
  That is true. You got to talk if you're going
• 6:59
  to talk the whole game. You got to talk to Miguel Rojas
• 7:01
  in the 9th. I mean, yeah, Rojas's bomb off,
• 7:04
  hopping with one out when basically it looked all but
• 7:07
  wrapped up. The Blue Jays were cruising, I
• 7:09
  think, at that point a little bit.
• 7:11
  He hadn't. He hadn't had a home run in the
• 7:12
  postseason, hadn't had a home run period, I think since
• 7:15
  mid-september. And Hoffman had been really,
• 7:17
  really good in these playoffs. And, you know, he gave up that
• 7:21
  that solo shot. So you're right.
• 7:23
  Give Rojas the credit to get us the extras.
• 7:25
  Once extras happen, we get to that 11th inning we made.
• 7:28
  The play in the bottom of the night too.
• 7:30
  He made the play in the bottom. I just we all understand.
• 7:32
  That play like this close, like AI don't even know what that is
• 7:36
  in measurement. It's a 10th of a second.
• 7:38
  It was about Will Smith lists his foot up.
• 7:41
  It almost comes off the plate. Slow down.
• 7:43
  He did get that total. IKEA doesn't get the greatest
• 7:46
  lead, which if he gets a better lead, he's going to score on
• 7:49
  that. Like, I don't know, like it's
• 7:52
  just baseball. That's what makes baseball great
• 7:55
  is just it can come down to those split seconds.
• 7:57
  And but yes, that's how we got to where you are with Will Smith
• 8:01
  in the 11th. So Will Smith hits the bomb in
• 8:04
  the 11th. Dodgers go up 1, Blue Jays come
• 8:07
  right back in the bottom of the 11th.
• 8:09
  Runner on We have Runner on 3rd right with one out first the.
• 8:16
  3rd. No, it's third.
• 8:18
  Yeah. Runner on third, one out.
• 8:21
  All Blue Jays need to do. There was a little bit of
• 8:22
  drinking on Saturday. So yeah, it was offensive, but
• 8:25
  there was runner on third one out.
• 8:27
  All the Blue Jays really need to do is SAC fly almost as kind of
• 8:30
  just put it in play all you really need to do.
• 8:32
  And what did I tell you? What did I say to you?
• 8:34
  They should walk. Who was I don't know who was it
• 8:36
  bad? Do you remember?
• 8:38
  I don't remember who the first guy was.
• 8:40
  Regardless, walk the guy, set up the potential double play
• 8:43
  because I think your chances of getting the double play to end
• 8:46
  the game are greater then that run.
• 8:49
  Not scoring. So what do they do?
• 8:51
  It was basically an unintentional intentional walk.
• 8:53
  They pitched around him and then.
• 8:56
  I mean, the double, it started up, I still don't agree with
• 8:58
  putting the winning run on base. And we we argued this on
• 9:00
  Saturday. You gave yourself an in the
• 9:02
  world. You gave yourself the out the
• 9:05
  the chance. No, it worked out.
• 9:07
  It worked out. I don't understand the double
• 9:09
  play. I don't understand why you don't
• 9:11
  agree with it. I've, I've told you 500 times, I
• 9:13
  wouldn't put the winning run on base.
• 9:16
  Like I'm not going to allow a a gapper to beat me.
• 9:20
  And when once you put the winning run on base, that allows
• 9:22
  that to happen. With the runner on the runner on
• 9:26
  the play, well then if he hits the gap, the guy at the plate
• 9:28
  hits the gapper Runner on 3rd scores and he's in scoring
• 9:30
  position still with only one out.
• 9:33
  You gave. Yourself.
• 9:33
  The game's not over. No, but you.
• 9:37
  But but if you don't put them on base, you have no opportunity of
• 9:39
  winning in that at bat. 0 percent chance of winning.
• 9:43
  Now you've upped your chances of winning in that at bat with the
• 9:46
  double play and that's what happened.
• 9:47
  You might have got a strikeout instead of walking the guy like.
• 9:50
  No. Yes, like it worked out.
• 9:53
  I get it. But I I as a manager would not
• 9:56
  be putting the winning run on base.
• 9:59
  There's no way like I'm going to make them hit the ball over the
• 10:02
  fence to beat me in that situation.
• 10:04
  But not only you, might you you see it as you put the winning
• 10:07
  run on base, you also put the game ending out at the plate.
• 10:12
  And it wasn't before. I mean, yeah, that's true.
• 10:15
  I mean, that still goes back to my point.
• 10:18
  I will. Continue to say it.
• 10:19
  So you, you, you say that, but you put, you put the World
• 10:22
  Series ending out at the plate and that's what happened.
• 10:26
  It is, it is. Give yourself a chance to win
• 10:27
  the game you gave. Yourself and look, you did say
• 10:30
  it before it happened and I argued that I wouldn't do it and
• 10:33
  it ended up working out. But I mean, if that ball is more
• 10:37
  to the left and goes to the 5.50 and Mookie Betts doesn't get a
• 10:40
  glove on it, now you're tied and you've got runners in 1st and
• 10:43
  2nd. So now the winning runs in in
• 10:46
  scoring position to beat you. So there's a lot of ways.
• 10:49
  To basically, but it would still take a base hit to beat you.
• 10:51
  Still take a base hit. It would still take a base hit
• 10:53
  to beat you. It still would, yeah.
• 10:55
  Yeah, but if you didn't walk the guy that singled, you still got
• 10:59
  to band it first. Like, I don't know, there's a a
• 11:02
  lot of strategy. That's why baseball is one of
• 11:04
  the best sports because there's a lot of things that you can do
• 11:07
  and. And obviously the strategy
• 11:10
  worked out, but. Should I be a baseball manager?
• 11:13
  I don't think so. I can do it.
• 11:16
  I don't think so. There's a lot of, there's still
• 11:18
  a couple of openings. The Braves opening got filled by
• 11:21
  Walt Weiss the other day, but there's still a couple openings.
• 11:24
  But I mean, the other, the other thing we have not talked about
• 11:27
  is Yamamoto getting three wins in the World Series.
• 11:30
  Yeah. Becoming the World Series MVP,
• 11:33
  the first player to have three wins in the World Series since
• 11:36
  Randy Johnson did it in that Diamondbacks World Series that
• 11:38
  you were just talking about. But I don't know if it's the
• 11:42
  best World Series of all time. It's definitely on the list of
• 11:45
  of the greatest. And no, it's just.
• 11:49
  I mean the drama it's bad when. Baseball is over.
• 11:52
  All that drama of the 9th inning, the top of the bottom of
• 11:55
  the 10th inning, the top of the 11th inning, the bottom of the
• 11:59
  11th inning, like there was drama every step of the way.
• 12:02
  Every the World Series, Yeah, in in a tied game or a one run
• 12:06
  game. So yeah, there's going to be
• 12:07
  drama. No, because it could have been 1
• 12:09
  to 1 going into the 9th and nobody gets on base and we go to
• 12:11
  extras and nobody gets on base in the 10th and there's just a
• 12:14
  solo home run in the 11th and it's just over.
• 12:16
  Like, no, there could be a lot less drama than what there was,
• 12:19
  and you know that. Game six and seven both ended on
• 12:21
  double plays. Hell, that's right.
• 12:24
  How how do you get how do you get picked off on on on Game 6?
• 12:28
  How do you get doubled off? 2nd is just unreal but.
• 12:30
  Yeah, that's that should not happen, No.
• 12:32
  And if if you were the manager, which you are a great manager
• 12:35
  and never make bad decisions, that would not happen.
• 12:38
  I would have DF8 him right there.
• 12:39
  DF8 him on the spot but we got to give credit to our guy Will
• 12:44
  Smith. Louisville native with the
• 12:46
  game-winning home run for the 6th consecutive year, Will Smith
• 12:50
  has won the World Series. Yep.
• 12:53
  Will Smith did it with the Dodgers in 20 and then Will
• 12:56
  Smith does it the other Will Smith the pitcher.
• 12:58
  Will Smith does it with the Braves, the Astros and the
• 13:01
  Rangers 21/22/23 And now Will Smith, the Louisville native and
• 13:05
  the Dodgers catcher has done it the last two years so.
• 13:08
  What a run, though for the other Will Smith You get in three
• 13:10
  straight World Series with three different teams.
• 13:12
  Like you just end up in great situations.
• 13:15
  And he closed games for the Braves in 2021.
• 13:17
  He was not that great. He figured out ways to get it
• 13:19
  done. He didn't pitch that much for
• 13:21
  the other two teams, but was on their teams.
• 13:23
  But yeah, if you can win 3 World Series with three different
• 13:25
  teams, that's that's pretty hard to do.
• 13:29
  But sad that the World Series is over.
• 13:33
  Sad when the baseball season ends.
• 13:34
  But we got crossover season now. We've got plenty of sports
• 13:38
  action. We got football and basketball
• 13:41
  now on our plate. And I think we need to start off
• 13:45
  with a little college football, as the top two teams in college
• 13:51
  football, both in the Big 10, both continue to dominate.
• 13:58
  Ohio State takes care of Penn State, Indiana takes care of
• 14:01
  Maryland. What stood out to you on those
• 14:03
  two games? I mean, we didn't really watch
• 14:06
  much of it on Saturday because we were on the golf course and
• 14:08
  I, you know, I expected IU to win.
• 14:11
  I didn't expect them to win as big as they did.
• 14:13
  I know they've been crushing teams.
• 14:15
  I thought maybe Maryland would be kind of a lazy game on the
• 14:17
  road, but man, they just signetti and the Hoosiers just
• 14:20
  continue to just dominate teams. Like like like we've said
• 14:23
  before, like that's just the sign of what a great team does
• 14:26
  is they just beat the the heck out of the teams that you're
• 14:29
  supposed to beat the heck out of.
• 14:30
  And, and they they, they just continue to do it.
• 14:32
  They're right now they're just an unstoppable train.
• 14:35
  I don't know what's slowing them down. 580 yards.
• 14:39
  They recovered 3 fumbles. It's their 5th 50th point game
• 14:45
  of the season. 550 point games. That's insane.
• 14:50
  They are 9 and O for consecutive seasons after failing to ever
• 14:56
  start 9 and O their first 136 years.
• 15:01
  And then you've got Ohio State where I mean their offense is
• 15:05
  really starting to click. We already do.
• 15:07
  They had probably what was the best defense in the country,
• 15:10
  Jeremiah Smith with another touchdown, his 24th receiving
• 15:12
  touchdown since his debut last year.
• 15:16
  Julian saying is really, you know, coming into his own.
• 15:19
  He had his third game with 85% completion percentage and 300
• 15:24
  yards and 4/4 touchdowns. But I did a comparison of Ohio
• 15:30
  State and Indiana, Yeah, with points per game, opponents
• 15:35
  points per game, yards per game, and opponents yards per game.
• 15:41
  And before I see the say these like if you had to pick IU or
• 15:46
  Indiana to be the top team in the country, you're going
• 15:50
  Indiana. It's hard not to.
• 15:53
  I'd go Indiana. So in the the College Football
• 15:57
  Playoff, they obviously they went with Ohio State and then
• 16:01
  Indiana at what, number 2? Yeah.
• 16:05
  So I mean, I would go Indiana just because the way that they
• 16:09
  just put everybody in the bed. Yeah, I mean they and they,
• 16:13
  they've got the bet out if you, if we compare the resumes of the
• 16:15
  two, they have the best win, I think out of the two beating
• 16:18
  Oregon at Oregon, I mean Ohio State's best win so far.
• 16:21
  We're looking at Texas maybe. And one was was a struggle, but
• 16:25
  you know everybody. So it's week 1, you can't really
• 16:28
  into it, but. After Texas has struggled their
• 16:30
  way to the last three wins, it's it's surprising that Ohio State
• 16:34
  was every win a ugly game like that because that's the games
• 16:37
  that Texas seems to be winning lately.
• 16:39
  But points per game, Ohio State ranks 19th.
• 16:44
  Do you know what Indiana ranks? 1. 1st.
• 16:47
  Yeah. Opponents points per game.
• 16:51
  Ohio State we know ranks first. Do you know what Indiana ranks
• 16:53
  second? Third thing yards per game.
• 16:58
  Indiana or Ohio State ranks 29th.
• 17:01
  Indiana does not rank first, but they ranked 4th in the country.
• 17:06
  And then opponent charge per game.
• 17:09
  Once again, Ohio State ranks first.
• 17:11
  And this is where just Indiana just doesn't get the credit.
• 17:14
  They're seventh in opponent's yards per game.
• 17:17
  So they're a top ten in the country or top seven in the
• 17:19
  country and both of those defensive categories.
• 17:23
  And like I said, they had three fumble recoveries in the win
• 17:26
  over Maryland. And I just we talked about their
• 17:29
  offense. We talked about Mendoza, you
• 17:31
  know, we just, we did not enough talk about how good their
• 17:35
  defense is. No, I mean absolutely.
• 17:38
  Like you, the numbers don't lie. And these numbers are saying
• 17:40
  that they are a top 10 defense. So like you're right.
• 17:42
  Like the offense gets all the credit because they're putting
• 17:44
  up 50 something points and running up and down the field on
• 17:47
  folks and just dominating. But the defense like like
• 17:50
  they're they're right up there with them.
• 17:52
  Like they're just as good as that offense.
• 17:53
  So yeah, I mean, you you look at the numbers, you look at the
• 17:57
  strength of wins. It's, it's hard to say that it's
• 17:59
  not IE, but you know, like these two teams are on a collision
• 18:03
  course to meet up on December 6th in Indianapolis and it's
• 18:07
  going to be, that's going to be quite the show.
• 18:10
  I mean, it's it's going to be the show that all obviously, but
• 18:13
  they're one and two. That goes without saying.
• 18:15
  But everybody's going to be highly anticipating that game.
• 18:19
  And I mean, I don't know who's going to be favored in it if
• 18:23
  they did play right now. But I mean, if Ohio State's a 2
• 18:26
  1/2 point dog, I'm I'm rolling Indiana all day in that game,
• 18:30
  especially being in our home state.
• 18:31
  And yeah, just really looking forward to that one and seeing,
• 18:37
  I mean, it's just I know we've talked about it over and over
• 18:39
  again, but the job that Signetti's done is is amazing.
• 18:43
  And you know, if you look at the the rest of the games.
• 18:46
  Georgia beats Florida 24 to 20, their 48th straight win over
• 18:50
  unranked opponents. Ole Miss moves to 8 and one with
• 18:54
  their win, their third time their eight and one under Lane
• 18:56
  Kiffin. Louisville kind of dominates in
• 18:59
  the second-half, beats house, scores Virginia Tech 21 to
• 19:02
  nothing. They had 235 rushing yards as
• 19:05
  Isaac Brown had 130 and K1 had 94.
• 19:10
  Texas did it again, Figured out a way to win an ugly game.
• 19:15
  We're up 34 to 24 late and Pavius throws a touchdown.
• 19:19
  They go for the onside kick and I don't, I don't know if you saw
• 19:23
  that ball bouncing around, but Vandy should have picked it up
• 19:26
  and had a had a chance to win that game late.
• 19:28
  They weren't able to do it. Pavia threw for 368 yards and
• 19:33
  three touchdowns. And you know, we've given March
• 19:36
  Manning a lot of grief as he's not really lived up to the
• 19:40
  height, but he had 328 yards and, you know, he's now at three
• 19:45
  games with 300 plus yards and three touchdowns.
• 19:48
  And there's only four quarterbacks in the history of
• 19:50
  Texas that have done that three times.
• 19:54
  Colt Manning, Colt McCoy did it and in O nine, Major Applewhite
• 19:58
  in 99 and then Casey Thompson in 21.
• 20:00
  So for as as much as we've kind of he hasn't lived up to the
• 20:04
  height, there's no doubt, but he's still putting up OK
• 20:06
  numbers. Yeah, he's, he's doing fine.
• 20:08
  He's doing fine. And then?
• 20:10
  A couple shake UPS you've got to mention, like the Georgia Tech
• 20:13
  losing their first game of the season, that NC State kind of
• 20:16
  really hurting their playoff chances, and then Miami with
• 20:19
  their second loss of the season at SMU.
• 20:22
  So some shake up in the ACC Miami.
• 20:25
  Continues. I mean, that's what Cristobal
• 20:26
  does, right? Yeah, it's kind of as MO lately.
• 20:30
  Yeah, in the last couple of years.
• 20:32
  The Georgia Tech just couldn't get a stop in that game and you
• 20:35
  know, kind of cost them Haynes King's numbers were were out of
• 20:38
  were great in in that game, but they just couldn't get enough
• 20:41
  stops to win. Notre Dame struggled against A1
• 20:46
  win BC team but got a pick and then Jeremiah Love broke one
• 20:50
  late to to pull away by two scores and Dabo lost again at
• 20:55
  Clemson to Duke for the second search right year.
• 20:57
  They lost to Duke and he he's in his press conference talking
• 21:01
  about it's the low of the lows and he may get fired today as
• 21:04
  his as his 80s back in the back of the room.
• 21:06
  He had a couple other words as well, mostly toward the
• 21:09
  officials. I think he got fined a little
• 21:11
  bit, cost him a little, hit him in the wallet a little bit for
• 21:13
  some of his comments. But but they they announced the
• 21:17
  reveal of the top 12 yesterday been in Ohio State, Indiana A&M,
• 21:23
  Alabama, and then it goes Georgia, Ole Miss, BYU, Texas
• 21:30
  Tech, Oregon, Notre Dame, Virginia and Memphis.
• 21:37
  We're going to get BYU and Texas Tech playing each other this
• 21:42
  weekend. So you wait to see who's going
• 21:46
  to come out because they're playing each other at noon on on
• 21:48
  Saturday. That game will be fun to watch.
• 21:50
  We'll see what Baerbach Meyer can do can do in that one.
• 21:54
  But and it's early to like so the Memphis is the at large it's
• 21:59
  in right now. You know, James Madison is like
• 22:02
  second best chance to get that at large spot.
• 22:06
  A team that played Louisville tough at home a couple a month
• 22:09
  or so ago where they were running 2 quarterbacks out
• 22:12
  there. They really didn't look that
• 22:13
  great but it but it was still a struggle for the cards.
• 22:17
  Yeah, I mean, James Madison sitting there ready to pounce if
• 22:19
  Memphis, you know, somehow messes up.
• 22:23
  One game that we didn't talk about is Satterfield and
• 22:26
  Cincinnati. Yeah, getting a chance to kind
• 22:29
  of show what they got on the national stage in Utah, just
• 22:33
  kind of put it on 45 to 14, so. Yeah, I might have overestimated
• 22:37
  how how good I thought the Bearcats were.
• 22:39
  You, you're just such a Satterfield Homer that.
• 22:45
  Yeah, but I mean, not not much to say on that one.
• 22:48
  They just they, they got their butts whooped.
• 22:51
  But the big ones this week, as I mentioned, you got #7 VYU at #8
• 22:55
  Texas Tech, which would be the game of the week.
• 22:58
  A&M coming off the vibe plays at #22 Missouri, Missouri to see if
• 23:02
  they can stay undefeated. And then you've got #9 Oregon at
• 23:05
  at #20 Iowa, who who continues to move up in the rankings.
• 23:12
  Yeah, not not a bad slate of games on Saturday.
• 23:17
  So we talked a little bit about the the Oklahoma win over
• 23:21
  Tennessee. Yeah, their kicker, Tate Sandel
• 23:28
  have have have you? He's 18 for 19 on the year, 6 to
• 23:33
  6 from 57, eight from 40 to 49 transfer from UTSA.
• 23:38
  So dude, dude is, he's just money right now.
• 23:43
  Yeah. Kirk Kerb St. was on the game on
• 23:47
  Saturday. And I mean, dude, sandals,
• 23:52
  pants. They ain't pants.
• 23:53
  They're not pants. Nope, saw the picture.
• 23:56
  Not paints. They, I don't even know, Like
• 23:59
  we're wearing shorter shorts in basketball.
• 24:01
  We're getting back to the way that it used to be, you know,
• 24:03
  before the Fab Five really changed it and had shorts
• 24:05
  hanging down to their ankles. Yeah.
• 24:07
  But do we need football guys wearing, I mean.
• 24:09
  He's wearing biker shorts. He's wearing biker shorts.
• 24:11
  Do. We need football players wearing
• 24:13
  biker shorts. I mean, that's it's, he's not
• 24:16
  the only one. Like you see some of these
• 24:18
  players out there like you, you, you're supposed to wear like
• 24:21
  knee pads and stuff. Like these pads are not covered
• 24:23
  in your knees. Your knees are 4 inches below
• 24:25
  where your pants are in it. There's no way to wear a new pad
• 24:27
  if you don't have pants there. So, yeah, pants are getting
• 24:31
  shorter and shorter in college football.
• 24:33
  I mean, that's, I don't know if as a kicker like you like that
• 24:36
  you you don't have as much resistance on your leg as you're
• 24:39
  swinging that thing to kick a 55 yard field goal.
• 24:41
  But yeah, I mean, it's, it's not, they're not paints, they're
• 24:46
  short. They're Daisy Dukes as as Kirk
• 24:49
  Kerb, as Kirk Kerb, St. said. And even Dion, who I mean, he
• 24:53
  wasn't involved in the game, got into the actus.
• 24:56
  He said he's talking in his post game and saying how do us as
• 24:59
  coaches, how do we allow that to happen?
• 25:01
  How do we allow our players to go out and look like that?
• 25:04
  And I don't know if it's. The game's changed since Dion
• 25:07
  was a player though. Game's changed.
• 25:09
  I don't. I don't want to show my legs off
• 25:11
  like that. Nobody wants to see your legs.
• 25:16
  But I mean, I it's working for for Tate Sandel.
• 25:20
  I mean 18 for 19 and 6 to 6 from 50 plus.
• 25:24
  Yeah, yeah. Let's get that's getting the job
• 25:26
  done a little bit there. Gotta keep it.
• 25:28
  Yep. So I guess now do we have to
• 25:33
  transition to the NFL? What's the NFL?
• 25:37
  Never heard of it, Don't want to hear of it.
• 25:39
  It's a no fun leak if you're if if you want to celebrate and if
• 25:43
  you're a Cincinnati Bengals fan. But you know what it stands for,
• 25:46
  but you know the the silver lining and what happened to the
• 25:48
  Bengals on Sunday. And it was the complete, there's
• 25:52
  no words for it because we didn't get to watch a single
• 25:55
  snap. And I was perfectly OK with it.
• 25:58
  For my mental health, I'm glad I did not watch a single play of
• 26:01
  that game. Well, I can't say the last time
• 26:03
  that I did that. So because I am a glutton for
• 26:08
  for punishment, that is for sure.
• 26:10
  I will say the first quarter I had it on the speaker and our my
• 26:14
  team mates told me to turn it off because it was distracting
• 26:17
  me a little bit. Did catch win that after it was
• 26:21
  a 14 point game that they scored and got the onside kick.
• 26:23
  So then I quickly turned it on, saw that they scored to take the
• 26:27
  lead, screamed a little bit, but then realized.
• 26:31
  I heard you from a fairway over scream, but you had it.
• 26:34
  I thought you had a good shot. And.
• 26:37
  Took the lead with 54 seconds left.
• 26:39
  Flacco hit Yoshi Vas in the back of the end zone.
• 26:41
  And so I I did a little screen, but then I realized there was 54
• 26:45
  seconds left and they're only up one point.
• 26:47
  So they're probably going to lose because all the Bears
• 26:51
  needed was a field goal and it turned out to be just go ahead
• 26:55
  and get a touchdown. We'll break a tackle at the 32
• 26:57
  yard line and just just run it all the way in.
• 27:00
  I mean, like when you think things can't get worse, like you
• 27:05
  think that you're just at rock bottom and then you just somehow
• 27:08
  find a new layer under the rock to hit the bottom.
• 27:11
  Like this defense. I, I, I, I still don't
• 27:15
  understand how people have not been fired.
• 27:17
  I don't understand it. Like nobody's taking this
• 27:19
  seriously in the ownership group.
• 27:22
  The offense is now they hate the defense.
• 27:25
  It's like basically come out and said so in their post game
• 27:27
  comments with Jamar Chase and Chase Brown, you know, using a
• 27:30
  couple F bombs directed toward their their Bengals defense.
• 27:34
  You know, there's, there's reports of Bengals defenders
• 27:37
  kind of laughing it up a little bit after the game, like, you
• 27:40
  know, not taking it seriously, like it's a complete joke.
• 27:43
  You have Joe Flacco at the ripe age of what is he 4142 years
• 27:46
  old, a great quarterback in the in this NF and in the NFL throws
• 27:50
  for a career high. The Bengals put up 42 points.
• 27:54
  He throws for a career high and you still lose.
• 27:58
  You just don't think it's possible.
• 28:03
  It's it's wild. It's wild.
• 28:06
  And I've got some numbers here that you.
• 28:11
  Don't make me cry if you if you say them.
• 28:14
  But Joe Flacco's only 40 give you he's he's not 4142, but he
• 28:18
  does get he does got a little Gray in his beard.
• 28:21
  But yeah, I mean, he threw for 470 yards, 4 touchdowns.
• 28:25
  Like you said, it was just career high as a as a 40 year
• 28:28
  old who is had a great career. But the Bengals, per Sports
• 28:34
  radar, 25 missed tackles versus the Bears, most by any team this
• 28:40
  season and the second most since they started tracking missed
• 28:44
  tackles in 2007. Washington had 26 in 2015.
• 28:49
  The record for the most missed tackles and 1/4 is 9.
• 28:53
  The Bengals tied that in both the third and the fourth
• 28:56
  quarters on Sunday, and their 18 missed tackles and a half broke
• 29:02
  their previous record of 13. They have 109 missed tackles.
• 29:08
  We're we're continuing on the missed tackle stats.
• 29:11
  Yeah, they have 109 missed tackles on the season.
• 29:15
  Give me a guess of what the next highest is.
• 29:19
  The Washington Commanders. How many missed tackles do the
• 29:22
  Washington Commanders have for the second most in the NFL?
• 29:25
  What? What was our number again?
• 29:27
  109. 78. 76 really good guess you know say I'll never give you
• 29:38
  credit I'm giving you credit right now we.
• 29:41
  Cincinnati. Been 30% more tackles than the
• 29:45
  second worst team. 30% more missed tackles than the second
• 29:49
  worst team in the NFL. They're averaging 12 missed
• 29:52
  tackles per game, which puts them on pace for 206, which
• 29:56
  would be the lead beat the previous league record of 165.
• 30:02
  We keep going. They have the top three players
• 30:08
  in the NFL in missed tackles. Jordan Battle leads the NFL with
• 30:15
  15. See if I can guess who they are.
• 30:17
  Can I? Can I?
• 30:18
  You said Demetrius Knight. OK, say Geno Stone on that list.
• 30:22
  Yes, Demetrius Knight at 14 and Geno Stone at 13.
• 30:26
  Barrett Carter also ranks in the top ten with like 9 missed
• 30:30
  tackles. So they've lost the last two
• 30:35
  games. 39 to 38 to The Jets, 4742 to the Bears. 6 times in
• 30:40
  the last two years they have lost games when scoring 33
• 30:43
  points. And I'm still not done.
• 30:46
  Oh. God.
• 30:50
  Do you want to know who who has scored the most points in the
• 30:52
  NFL since Week 6? I'm going to take a guess and
• 30:57
  say that it's the Cincinnati Bengals, Nick.
• 31:00
  The Cincinnati Bengals lead the NFL in scoring since week six
• 31:05
  with 131 points. Their record in those four
• 31:10
  games? One and three.
• 31:13
  The Colts are second during that span with 127 points.
• 31:17
  They are three and one. The Chargers are third with 117
• 31:20
  points. They are three and one.
• 31:22
  The Bears are 4th mainly because of their performance on Sunday
• 31:26
  with 114 points. And guess what?
• 31:28
  Their record is 3 and 1 and. I'm done.
• 31:36
  Oh, we're finally done. So you read all these numbers,
• 31:39
  all these stats were the worst at this, the worst at that.
• 31:42
  Like not just the worst in historically bad, historically
• 31:47
  bad defense. And there has been no
• 31:50
  accountability anywhere, anywhere.
• 31:54
  The ownership hasn't even come out said this.
• 31:56
  This is not acceptable. Like nothing.
• 31:59
  Not a pretty, not a word, nothing.
• 32:01
  What do? You do you start firing people,
• 32:04
  Nick, you start firing people. You fired.
• 32:05
  You should have fired people last week when we got I sat here
• 32:08
  and I went on the ramp I need. I need fired.
• 32:10
  Exactly. Well, number one, you start with
• 32:12
  Duke Tobin, get him the heck out of town because he he is just
• 32:16
  completely whiffed on the talent on this roster.
• 32:19
  Like the the first round draft picks that he's had these
• 32:21
  defensive rounds, first and second round, third round draft
• 32:24
  picks that they've all sucked. Let's not be like they've all
• 32:26
  sucked. Shamar Stewart, terrible.
• 32:28
  Miles Murphy, terrible. The two rookie linebackers
• 32:32
  terrible. All terrible.
• 32:34
  And came Taylor Britt. Came Taylor Britt terrible.
• 32:37
  Dax Hill terrible. All of them terrible.
• 32:40
  And they were all high round draft picks.
• 32:42
  So you've missed, they've absolutely missed evaluating
• 32:44
  talent. Then you fire Zach Taylor and
• 32:46
  you're especially Al Golden. Just I've we've, I've already
• 32:50
  said my piece about Al Golden. Get off my sideline, get off my
• 32:53
  sideline, get out of the city, get get on a Greyhound bus.
• 32:57
  Go on back up to South Bend IN and you maybe take over the
• 33:00
  Notre Dame defense again, because what you have done this
• 33:02
  year has been absolutely terrible.
• 33:05
  Get out of town and take Zach Taylor with you and don't ever
• 33:09
  come back. OK, so Duke Tobin 100% is the
• 33:13
  first one that should go now. Getting rid of him in the middle
• 33:15
  of the season doesn't really accomplish anything.
• 33:18
  No, you, you know what it does it it tells the fans that you
• 33:20
  care. No, I, I I would have done it
• 33:24
  yesterday. Yes, the show that.
• 33:26
  He didn't with the team since 1999.
• 33:28
  The season is over. After the Keely Smith in 1999
• 33:31
  and he didn't get fired for that so.
• 33:34
  The the season's a watch. Just just show the things you
• 33:37
  care and start making changes now.
• 33:38
  I don't. I don't know what else you can
• 33:40
  do. It's not going to get better
• 33:42
  this year. No, there's nothing that's going
• 33:44
  to make it better. Well, I just gave you those
• 33:46
  offensive numbers with the 40 year old Joe Flacco and you're
• 33:49
  going to fire Zach Taylor, who's in charge of this offense.
• 33:53
  Yes, give me damn Pitcher Pitcher.
• 33:55
  He knows the offense. He can call plays.
• 33:58
  But but you do see what I'm saying here, right?
• 34:01
  OK, you're the leader of this team.
• 34:02
  This team, you have offensive guys fighting with defensive
• 34:05
  guys like you. You like, like there's no
• 34:08
  kidding leadership. There's no leadership. 42 points
• 34:10
  at that. I know that.
• 34:11
  I understand that. And the right offensive guys are
• 34:14
  rightfully to have a right to be mad.
• 34:16
  But your teammates are fighting each other at this point like
• 34:19
  there's no leadership. Zach Taylor's not leading this
• 34:21
  team. I don't I don't care if you put
• 34:23
  up 40 points. The the a damn pitcher can put
• 34:26
  up 40 points. He knows the offense.
• 34:27
  He can call the plays, The offense will still be fine with
• 34:30
  the weapons they have. This offense will be fine
• 34:32
  without Zach Taylor. Get out and take Al Golden.
• 34:36
  I think so, but I mean you don't know 100%.
• 34:40
  He does not to give. Him some credit for what he's
• 34:43
  doing for the offense, but he's in charge of the entire team.
• 34:46
  He's in charge of the entire team as the head coach and he
• 34:49
  brought in Al Golden. And I mean, you can't fire Al
• 34:53
  Golden after 9 games or. Why can't you?
• 34:59
  I don't. What do you mean you can't?
• 35:00
  Yeah, of course you can. Like.
• 35:03
  The whole thing to me was never going to work.
• 35:06
  It doesn't matter who the defense quarter.
• 35:08
  You made no changes on that defense except for bringing in
• 35:11
  rookie linebackers. You brought in TJ Slayton to at
• 35:15
  least one guy on the defensive line, but you did nothing else.
• 35:18
  Like, you're deep. You, you, you're, you're
• 35:20
  starting safety. You know how you motivated him?
• 35:23
  You asked him to take a pay cut. So Gino Stone like we gave you 2
• 35:27
  year contract. You weren't great in year 1
• 35:29
  here. Would you take a little less
• 35:30
  money to still play every down Like you're asking Al and I,
• 35:35
  we've went into this before, but you're asking Al Golden to to do
• 35:38
  miracles. He took out that defense, but he
• 35:41
  made it worse like he made it worse.
• 35:42
  The same. You're not.
• 35:44
  Make it worse. Like they're 100% worse.
• 35:46
  Like you can't be the guy that comes in and makes it.
• 35:49
  Worse. But yeah, I I don't know, it
• 35:53
  doesn't do anything for this season, but I think if you fire
• 35:55
  Duke Tobin at least shows that you're serious about trying to
• 35:58
  make this team better. You have to blow that side of
• 36:02
  the ball up completely in the offseason.
• 36:05
  Every single one. Every position.
• 36:08
  Well, you keep DJ Turner. I mean Roma Dusi didn't even
• 36:11
  have a catch. Like he's doing his job fine.
• 36:15
  Think you have one player that's that's showing up this year.
• 36:18
  They watch Logan Wilson's going to go to the Cowboys and become
• 36:21
  an All Pro. Well, and that's another thing
• 36:23
  too, like. Expecting it.
• 36:25
  On a defense that's terrible, are you OK?
• 36:28
  On the defense that's terrible, you're relying on 2 rookie
• 36:32
  linebackers that are in the top ten in the NFL, missed tackles
• 36:35
  and are a lot of times in wrong positions.
• 36:38
  And Shamar Stewart takes terrible angles and it's just
• 36:44
  it's such a waste to have such a good offense even with the 40
• 36:47
  year old backup quarterback and. I mean, that's the sad thing is
• 36:51
  if Joe Burrow was our quarterback, like you'll say Joe
• 36:54
  Burrow didn't get hurt and we're like, we still lose these games.
• 36:57
  Like I don't want to, I don't want the, I don't want the
• 36:59
  ownership to use the excuse of, oh, Joe Burrow got hurt, you
• 37:02
  know, like that we would have been better.
• 37:04
  Like no, this team could not be any better with Joe Burrow on it
• 37:07
  right now. Well, Neil, I mean, I'd said
• 37:09
  like this their sixth time in the last two years they've lost
• 37:11
  a game when scoring 33 points. They lost 38 to 33 to Washington
• 37:15
  last year, 41 to 38 to Baltimore, 3534 to Baltimore and
• 37:19
  44 to 38 to Pittsburgh. And we still ended up with a
• 37:22
  winning right that was. All with and.
• 37:23
  We had up with a winning record, won the last five games and
• 37:26
  almost made the playoffs. I I don't blow, you got to blow
• 37:33
  it up and blow. It up now, it starts now.
• 37:35
  Make a move now. But anyway, Duke Tobin needs to
• 37:38
  be the first one to go. One team that didn't make a move
• 37:44
  is the Colts and gave up a lot, gave up two first round draft
• 37:49
  picks. Too much.
• 37:50
  To get Sauce Gardner. Is that too much?
• 37:53
  Yes, I mean, first of all, isn't Sauce Gardner, isn't Sauce
• 37:57
  Gardner one hurt right now? Well.
• 37:58
  He didn't play against the Beagles 2 weeks ago.
• 38:00
  Right. I don't know if he they they're
• 38:01
  on a bye week, so I don't know, but yeah.
• 38:03
  But anyways, two first round picks.
• 38:07
  Sauce. He had a great rookie year.
• 38:09
  I think he had a pretty good second year.
• 38:10
  And ever since then he's kind of gone downhill.
• 38:13
  He's not been the sauce gardener that he wasn't.
• 38:16
  I guess rookie year was. Probably 1 of the the best
• 38:18
  corners in the league. He hasn't been.
• 38:21
  Last year he wasn't. I don't think he's been this
• 38:24
  year. Here's my Yeah, it's 22 first
• 38:29
  rounds a lot, of course, but how hard is it to find a shutdown
• 38:35
  corner in the NFL? And if you've got two first
• 38:38
  round picks where you're drafting a corner in the first
• 38:40
  round and you're trying to get a a shutdown corner for the next
• 38:44
  10 years, or let's just say 5 because you just don't know how
• 38:47
  long corners are going to last in this league.
• 38:51
  I mean, what are the chances of being successful?
• 38:54
  No, no, you need it. So I think if you've got what
• 38:57
  you think is a known commodity and you know he's going to be
• 39:00
  that guy for the next 5 years where he can shut down the your
• 39:03
  opponent's best wide receiver. Yeah, I know.
• 39:05
  I, I agree giving up two corners or two first rounds is a lot.
• 39:09
  But if the Bengals had that, had that luxury where they had picks
• 39:14
  and they were able to bring in a shutdown corner and fix this
• 39:16
  defense, I'd do it in a heartbeat.
• 39:19
  No, I mean, yes, but I think I said, I think you're
• 39:22
  overestimating how good Sauce Gardner is.
• 39:27
  Maybe I am, but I mean, he's still super young and still
• 39:30
  regarded as one of the the better corners in the league and
• 39:35
  but he wasn't going to be available unless you're giving
• 39:38
  up that much. I just, I would love to see that
• 39:41
  kind of aggressiveness with the Cincinnati Bengals.
• 39:45
  No, I agree. I mean, the Bengals, Bengals
• 39:48
  have notoriously not made moves. Like we don't make moves, we
• 39:50
  don't make trades, we don't. We just throw a roster out there
• 39:54
  at the beginning of the year and that's the roster we usually end
• 39:56
  up with at the end of the year unless somebody gets hurt like
• 39:58
  Joe Burrow. But yeah, like the ownership
• 40:02
  never really. For the last two years they've
• 40:04
  made trades, which is kind of getting out of their their
• 40:07
  element last last year for Khalil Herbert because they
• 40:10
  didn't have any healthy running backs.
• 40:12
  And then they send Logan Wilson to the to the Cowboys for a
• 40:15
  seventh round pick, which I mean, you save money on the cap.
• 40:19
  He had an extent. I think he was signed through
• 40:21
  27. But you you can't tell me he
• 40:24
  couldn't help it. I don't care if he's lost a
• 40:25
  step. You can't tell me he couldn't
• 40:26
  help this just awful defense. No, I yeah, you're right.
• 40:33
  But the the rest of the the the Vikings upset the the Lions
• 40:37
  really put a lot of pressure on on Jared Goff.
• 40:39
  And, you know, we're able to nobody, I don't think anybody
• 40:43
  saw that coming. And JJ McCarthy had his first
• 40:45
  great game as a pro. The the Packers, Like, what do
• 40:49
  you think about the Packers? They're everybody's talking
• 40:51
  about them being one of the best teams.
• 40:53
  Now they have losses to both the Browns and the Panthers.
• 40:55
  Yeah. And Panthers at loss was in
• 40:57
  Green Bay I believe. Yeah, it was.
• 41:00
  Yeah, so I yeah, I I can't figure them out.
• 41:03
  Like I had them last week when we went through our rankings.
• 41:05
  I had them had them up there as AI think probably my favorite to
• 41:08
  win the NFC. And yeah, that's that's off the
• 41:13
  off the rails now. Like that's not what they what
• 41:16
  they what they showed on Sunday. So I don't know, I don't know
• 41:19
  what to make of the Packers the. The The Colts turned the ball
• 41:22
  over six times and yeah, Despite that, they still battled and had
• 41:26
  a chance late, but they lost in Pittsburgh 27 to 20.
• 41:30
  The Broncos keep winning close games, win 18 to 15 over the
• 41:33
  Texans. The the Rams roll past the
• 41:37
  terrible Saints and and what was the the game of the week?
• 41:41
  The Bills take care of the Chiefs in Buffalo 28 to 21,
• 41:47
  which we I had the Chiefs as the best team.
• 41:50
  If we do rankings again, we'll see.
• 41:52
  We'll see where they fall. And I mean good.
• 41:54
  How How good did Sam Darnold and the Seahawks look in Washington
• 41:57
  on on Sunday night? I made that game in Washington
• 42:01
  on on Sunday night. So do you want to do your top 10
• 42:05
  real quick? Yeah, let's roll through it.
• 42:07
  We can roll through. It I think it's it's your turn
• 42:09
  to roll first all. Right, let's see.
• 42:12
  Let me look at the old notes here.
• 42:16
  Oh boy, my number one team in the NFL.
• 42:22
  It's tough dude. You know what?
• 42:29
  I don't want you to cuss me out, so I'm not going to do it.
• 42:32
  Just do it. I'm not doing it.
• 42:34
  Oh man. Stick to your guns.
• 42:38
  I. Just think they're playing the
• 42:41
  best ball right now. I'm doing who's playing.
• 42:43
  I'm going to go Seattle Seahawks.
• 42:47
  Look, I I think them and the Rams are both really good.
• 42:50
  They're very good. And then the Niners are battling
• 42:54
  injuries, but they just keep winning two.
• 42:56
  I, I just think that NFC West is loaded.
• 42:58
  And I mean, the Cardinals just beat made the Cowboys look
• 43:02
  terrible with Jacoby Brissett under center.
• 43:04
  So I, I don't think that's that bad of a pick.
• 43:07
  I probably wouldn't go 1 yet. There's six and two.
• 43:10
  Their two losses are by a combined 7 points.
• 43:13
  They they both close games. The one the the first loss was
• 43:16
  week one. They lost by 4 to the 49ers.
• 43:19
  Ever since then, like they've just been playing good ball.
• 43:22
  And like I said, they dominated in Washington.
• 43:25
  They beat a pretty good Texans team the week before.
• 43:27
  They're they're, they're up there, man.
• 43:31
  Well, they're #1. Yeah, for me they are.
• 43:35
  I mean, it hasn't been pretty, but I mean, they're just,
• 43:40
  they're just Super Bowl champions.
• 43:42
  So give me the Eagles at 2:00. Eagles at 2?
• 43:47
  I don't know about that one. This is tough, man.
• 43:50
  I'm looking at this. This nobody's dominant.
• 43:53
  I mean, I'm going to go, it's still a tough call at #3 I'm
• 43:58
  going to go Buffalo Bills. They have an inexcusable loss at
• 44:03
  Atlanta on Monday Night Football a couple weeks ago.
• 44:06
  Then they lost at home to the New England Patriots.
• 44:08
  But they lost the Patriots. It's not as bad as, you know,
• 44:11
  what we thought it was going to be at the beginning of the year
• 44:13
  with Patriots sitting there at 7:00 and 2:00.
• 44:15
  So we know what that went off the Chiefs this week.
• 44:18
  Give me the Buffalo Bills at #3. And look, I'm going to get
• 44:21
  cussed out here because I'm picking A5 and four team as the
• 44:23
  4th best team in the in the league.
• 44:26
  I, I mean, I picked them first last week.
• 44:28
  I'm not dropping them out of the top ten.
• 44:29
  I'm going Chiefs of four. Right, All right.
• 44:35
  Despite the bad game that they just had in Pittsburgh with the
• 44:38
  six turnovers, to me, I think that's just an anomaly.
• 44:41
  They played such good football up until that point.
• 44:43
  Give me the Indianapolis Colts at number, where we at 5:00.
• 44:48
  Five. Yeah, give me the Colts at 5:00.
• 44:50
  Give me the Rams at six. You know who leads the NFL
• 44:54
  touchdown passes? Matt Stafford.
• 44:58
  Matt Stafford, old man. Give me the Rams at six.
• 45:02
  Rams at six. All right, I'll go with the
• 45:05
  Patriots. The NFC or sorry, the AFC East
• 45:07
  leading Patriots sitting there at 7:00 and 2:00.
• 45:10
  They continue to stack up wins. Mike Rabos got him, got him
• 45:13
  rolling. Give me the Patriots.
• 45:17
  I'll take the bucks. Where are we at?
• 45:20
  So this is. That was your 8th I think,
• 45:22
  right? 8th Give me the bucks.
• 45:25
  Bucks And then I mean, I don't know why we don't have the
• 45:28
  Denver Broncos ranked even higher, but give me the Broncos.
• 45:31
  They continue to win close games, but guess what wins?
• 45:33
  I mean, I don't trust Bo Knicks. You said that for all season and
• 45:39
  what's he doing? He's stacking.
• 45:40
  Stacking up wins he. Stacks wins, he plays bad for
• 45:43
  3/4 and then decides to just play out of his head.
• 45:46
  I mean, what if they want six in a row here?
• 45:49
  Yeah, they they honestly should be 8:00 and 1:00.
• 45:52
  Six in a row? Yeah, they should be 8 and 1.
• 45:54
  Like you can say you don't trust Bo Nicks, but trust that defense
• 45:57
  like the Broncos are for real. I probably should have gone
• 46:00
  Lions before the Bucks, but I know the Lions here.
• 46:04
  Can't believe we have the Lions sitting at 10.
• 46:06
  Well, they just lost to the Vikings and you did I know.
• 46:09
  So we don't even have the Packers in the in the top ten.
• 46:12
  We don't have the Steelers, We don't.
• 46:14
  We don't have the Ravens, we don't have the.
• 46:16
  Chargers. Yeah, No chargers.
• 46:18
  I think it's about the only the 49ers, but I think that's about
• 46:21
  the only teams that are. Don't have the?
• 46:22
  Really relevant that we kind of left.
• 46:24
  Out We don't have the Bengals in the top 10.
• 46:27
  Dude, I don't even want to talk about them.
• 46:29
  We talked about them too much on here.
• 46:31
  Yeah, but I'm done with the NFLI don't want to talk about it
• 46:37
  anymore. Let's move college hoops is
• 46:40
  here. And you know, one of the fun
• 46:44
  things about November is is all these tournaments getting to
• 46:47
  watch all these freshmen for the first time and Co Pete for
• 46:51
  Arizona and and they're upset win over the defending national
• 46:54
  champion Florida Gators opens up his career with 30 points and
• 46:59
  five assists. He's the first player in Big 12
• 47:01
  history to to have 30 and five in his debut.
• 47:06
  He was ranked I think 7th as on the incoming freshman list.
• 47:10
  And there's just a a lot of really good freshmen.
• 47:14
  AJ Debonza had 21 points and six rebounds and three assists.
• 47:18
  And BYU's win over Villanova, 5 point win.
• 47:21
  And that game was tied late and Debonce had like 6 of the next
• 47:25
  eight points to kind of pull away.
• 47:28
  And that one, he's he's the top rated and what a lot of people
• 47:30
  are saying is going to be the number one pick.
• 47:33
  Yeah, Darren Peterson had 21 points, only played like 18
• 47:37
  minutes and there Kansas's win over Green Bay, he he had what,
• 47:43
  3 rebounds and three assists, had a had a three Cam Boozer,
• 47:48
  Carlos Boozer's son playing for Duke, 15 points and 13 rebounds
• 47:52
  and their win over Texas. But he was only three to 12 from
• 47:55
  the field and 9:00 to 12:00 from the line.
• 47:57
  And then I guess we'll close out with Louisville's own Michael
• 48:01
  Brown, who had 11 points and a a really good 6 assists and yeah,
• 48:05
  but in 18 minutes, which was just a, a hard to watch game
• 48:10
  against a really bad South. Carolina yeah, that was a hard
• 48:12
  game to get through. Yeah, when you win by 59 points.
• 48:14
  But no, I mean, it's freshman class.
• 48:17
  I mean, it was highly touted coming in, but my goodness, like
• 48:19
  these guys are just living up to the hype superstars throughout
• 48:23
  the country. Really fun to watch.
• 48:25
  I mean, they're stepping up in big time games already.
• 48:27
  Like you said with Co Co Pete in that that game over the
• 48:31
  defending champion Florida Gators won a great game that
• 48:33
  that was to start off the season.
• 48:35
  But it's freshman class to me. I mean, and, and it's not just
• 48:39
  me, but you know, a lot of the national riders are saying this
• 48:41
  is the best freshman class they've seen.
• 48:44
  Yeah, it's, it's exciting. And I mean, we live in, like
• 48:47
  I've said before, we live in the heart of college basketball
• 48:50
  country. So we will be talking a ton of
• 48:52
  of college basketball here on the height differential.
• 48:54
  And it's no, it's just, it's always fun to watch these guys
• 48:59
  play for the first time because I mean, obviously you don't see
• 49:02
  them playing high school and but, but yeah, I mean, Pete's
• 49:05
  performance against Florida is the one that stands out to me.
• 49:07
  I mean, he just, he was super impressive and was putting up
• 49:12
  numbers that, you know, an Arizona freshman has, has never
• 49:15
  done before. And but there's one fifth year
• 49:18
  walk on senior that I think we need to talk about and that is
• 49:23
  Brandon Dwyer. He's a fifth year walk on
• 49:26
  senior. Like I said, at Florida Gulf
• 49:27
  Coast. He has built up a TikTok
• 49:32
  following of over 1.3 million followers with his Road to One
• 49:41
  Point series Road to one point. And in their game against new
• 49:49
  College Florida, which I believe is the NAIA school, Brandon
• 49:55
  Dwyer gets in, hits a three scores 6 points.
• 49:59
  So his and the crowd dude, the crowd just goes absolutely
• 50:04
  bonkers. But his road to one point is
• 50:07
  over and he's done that six fold as he now has 6 points in his
• 50:11
  career. Does he shut down the TikTok?
• 50:13
  Now what do you do? I think now you you go road to
• 50:17
  10 points and try to get the double digits.
• 50:20
  Maybe we go road to starting and maybe he goes road to the
• 50:22
  starter. Try to get a start in in his
• 50:24
  career maybe. I don't think he's going to
• 50:26
  start. He prior to that game he had
• 50:29
  appeared in eight games and averaged 1.4 minutes in those
• 50:33
  eight games. So I think he's a little bit
• 50:36
  away from starting, but I mean, we haven't talked about Dunk
• 50:42
  City in a while. You know it's it's.
• 50:45
  That's right. The the biggest story for Dunk
• 50:47
  City in a long time. Yeah, no good for that kid, man.
• 50:50
  Like, you know, you, you probably, you show up to
• 50:53
  practice every day. You put in the work.
• 50:54
  You know, you don't get any credit, you don't get to see the
• 50:56
  floor. But you know, you still got to
• 50:58
  show up every day and grind it out and be a part of the scout
• 51:01
  team and help your team win. And finally, you know, after
• 51:04
  five years, all that all that work pays off for the kids.
• 51:07
  So good for him. Six points you went off.
• 51:10
  Yeah, too bad he didn't get 7 points, so on that.
• 51:19
  So kid like these college students, whenever team scores
• 51:22
  67 points, these crowds are going nuts because that is the
• 51:27
  thing to do now. And there's video of a game in
• 51:32
  at Iowa State where they had a field trip game.
• 51:36
  Yeah. And we've all seen these field
• 51:38
  trip games where the crowd is just full of elementary, middle
• 51:42
  school kids and they get to 67. Points.
• 51:45
  Oh my God. And like I said, this has
• 51:48
  happened all over the country. But in this game, like the they
• 51:53
  actually just take the camera and they pan the crowd and you
• 51:56
  just see the entire all the kids, just every single one of
• 52:00
  them doing that and just screaming at the top of their
• 52:04
  lungs. You dressed up as 6-7 for
• 52:07
  Halloween. Yeah, sure did.
• 52:08
  Do you have? Some kind of explanation of what
• 52:11
  this? Is I don't know what it is.
• 52:12
  It annoys the the heck out of me.
• 52:15
  Like when's it going to end? Like I know I don't know what it
• 52:19
  means. I don't think anybody knows what
• 52:20
  it means. I don't think kids know what it
• 52:22
  means. Like nobody knows what it means.
• 52:24
  Just like when somebody was like, like we finally, finally,
• 52:27
  I think you've gotten over the Skibbity this and Skibbity Ohio
• 52:30
  Rizz and all that nonsense that went on last year.
• 52:33
  We finally got past that and now we get 6-7 drops in our lap.
• 52:37
  Like what's next 8925? Like what?
• 52:41
  What numbers are we going to come with, come up with next
• 52:43
  that don't mean? And look, with the Skippity and
• 52:47
  the rizz and all that, Rizz, actually, I'll give him credit.
• 52:49
  Rizz made sense. Like it's just short enough
• 52:52
  being charismatic like I, I think.
• 52:54
  I'm. Actually, that word is fine.
• 52:56
  We're going Skippity toilets and stuff.
• 52:58
  Like what? What?
• 52:58
  I'm totally what is that? I am not giving them any credit
• 53:01
  for that. But we finally got past all
• 53:03
  that, I feel like, and then now we get nonsense dropped in our
• 53:07
  laps. How long will this last The
• 53:10
  entire season when teams get 67 points that college students are
• 53:15
  going nuts like that? Yeah, probably, unfortunately
• 53:19
  until, until something new comes wrong, but yeah, yeah, probably.
• 53:23
  And it's going to. It's annoying.
• 53:25
  It's annoying. It is annoying.
• 53:30
  I guess a few things to close out with.
• 53:32
  We talked a lot of Ryder Cup and we talked a lot about how Rory
• 53:38
  was really heckled with by the fans, how it appeared that his
• 53:42
  wife had something thrown at her, which we eventually
• 53:45
  realized was not actually true, even though the entire team, the
• 53:51
  entire European team talked about how it was ridiculous that
• 53:54
  she got something thrown at her. But PGA of America chief
• 53:59
  executive Derek Sprague has sent a personal apology for the abuse
• 54:04
  directed at Rory and his wife and Rory's comment.
• 54:09
  I got a lovely e-mail from Derek Sprague apologizing.
• 54:13
  Should the PGA of America chief executive Derek Sprague have
• 54:18
  apologized to Rory? Hell no.
• 54:22
  Absolutely no, no, no apology. You get no apology.
• 54:26
  Like absolutely not. What are we doing?
• 54:29
  What are we doing? We should not be pandering to.
• 54:31
  I know he's one of the top players on the PGA Tour and you
• 54:33
  need him to to be successful, but no, come on, it's the Ryder
• 54:37
  Cup. It's the Ryder Cup.
• 54:38
  What do you expect? Rory was a big baby during those
• 54:41
  four, those three days and then probably some of the practice
• 54:44
  rounds, a huge baby. I mean, he's getting offended
• 54:46
  over sand bar fans saying hit it in the sand or whatever.
• 54:49
  We we said like get get out of here.
• 54:51
  Like, no, absolutely not no. I mean, I, I agree with you and
• 54:59
  I mean, I like Rory. Like I'll pull for Rory when,
• 55:02
  when it's not the Ryder Cup. But the his quote saying I got a
• 55:06
  lovely e-mail from Derek Sprague apologizing is just so lame.
• 55:14
  Like so lame. You know what should happen if
• 55:16
  Scotty Scheffler should write him another lovely e-mail.
• 55:18
  Tell him to go get bit somewhere, is what he should
• 55:21
  say. Well.
• 55:22
  Dude, and they're going to do this in two years.
• 55:25
  It's going to be the exact opposite.
• 55:27
  Like this is what this is like. I wish we had people heckling
• 55:30
  us. That's last weekend in the
• 55:32
  routing Cup. That's what the router, that's
• 55:34
  what the Ryder Cup is. It happens in both countries.
• 55:38
  There was the beer incident was not what it was made out to be.
• 55:41
  So sorry, Missus McElroy, you got hit by a beer, but it was
• 55:44
  unintentional. You know, like, I hope you dried
• 55:46
  off, got your dress dry cleaned. Like everything's OK now.
• 55:49
  We don't need to be apologizing. And if in a nicely worded
• 55:53
  e-mail, like get out. I want a new, give me a new PGA
• 55:56
  Tour president. And this guy sucks, get him out.
• 55:58
  I know he's new to the game because I think he just took
• 56:00
  over, but get him out. I think we got to bring it up.
• 56:04
  It's too late to apologize, right?
• 56:07
  It's been too long. Like it's been how many months?
• 56:10
  That's not what are we? What are?
• 56:12
  We doing also just go have a beer and hammer it out.
• 56:15
  You don't need to send an official e-mail.
• 56:18
  A lovely e-mail. It's embarrassing.
• 56:20
  Like you don't need that. Like it's embarrassing for the
• 56:22
  PGA Tour, absolutely embarrassing for the PGA, and
• 56:25
  it's not. Worries their guy.
• 56:27
  Worries their guy. The time where it's PGA Tour
• 56:29
  versus live Tour, you know, like this makes the live tour look
• 56:32
  cool and I hate the live tour, so whatever, like just just a
• 56:36
  bad look for the PGA Tour. Bending the knee to Rory
• 56:39
  McIlroy, the, you know, the crybaby of Europe.
• 56:42
  Just. Get out.
• 56:44
  Well, you talked about live. Yeah.
• 56:48
  The whole thing was there, 54 holes.
• 56:51
  It's like they're going like live Is the Roman numeral Liv
• 56:57
  454? Yeah, I don't know what the
• 57:01
  Roman numeral for 72 is, but I can look it up.
• 57:03
  Oh, I can. Oh, let me see if I can get it.
• 57:05
  Let me see if I can get it. V Let's see.
• 57:14
  What is it 72? It's LXII.
• 57:17
  Yeah. So they got to change the name
• 57:21
  of their league. No, that's 62.
• 57:25
  No, it's not. That is else 50 XXX, yes, 2 XS.
• 57:32
  So they have to change the name of their league to LXII Lexi.
• 57:36
  Lexi. I mean, don't they have to?
• 57:38
  That's the whole. Brand, you can't you can't add 4
• 57:41
  as your logo and then play 72 holes.
• 57:43
  But good for Liv. They're finally, you know,
• 57:44
  playing some real golf, an actual golf tournament.
• 57:47
  But didn't a lot of the Liv guys, besides the fact that
• 57:49
  they're getting paid boatloads of money, go because they only
• 57:52
  had to play 3 rounds and wear shorts?
• 57:54
  I mean, it's all stupid. Like, quick, let's just get what
• 57:57
  what's in the nonsense. Let's shake hands, we'll have
• 57:59
  the truths, let's get back to being one big happy family and
• 58:02
  we all play on the same tour because this is just stupid.
• 58:05
  I mean, it's, I, I think that's what we're lean we're leaning
• 58:08
  towards. We've been leaning towards that
• 58:09
  for two years, but this? Gets you closer.
• 58:13
  I also think it they think it's going to help them with world
• 58:15
  points to get them into to more majors potentially.
• 58:19
  But I mean, your your whole brand.
• 58:22
  It's your whole brand, it's your whole brain.
• 58:25
  It'd be like us having a podcast called The Height Differential
• 58:28
  and then going getting 25 foot 10 guys to host it like that
• 58:34
  would make no sense. No sense.
• 58:37
  And now you're Liv, but you're playing 72 holes.
• 58:43
  Yeah, no, don't make any sense to me.
• 58:45
  But you know, glad they actually are playing a real golf
• 58:47
  tournament. But no, makes no sense.
• 58:49
  It's all a bunch of nonsense, just like I said, let's just
• 58:52
  shake hands and and and come back together as a family.
• 58:55
  Couple quick things to end. There was a high school football
• 58:57
  game in Illinois that I wanted to talk about.
• 59:00
  Porta High School trailed Fairfield eight to six with less
• 59:03
  than a minute to go and they had the ball in field Goal Ranch.
• 59:07
  They spiked the ball on 1st down, so now there's second down
• 59:10
  with 23 seconds left. They ran the ball to get a
• 59:14
  little closer and then the court so now it's third down.
• 59:18
  The quarterback gets confused and takes a knee so he takes a
• 59:24
  knee on 3rd down. So then they snap the ball on
• 59:26
  4th down and he spikes it and attempt to shot stop the.
• 59:29
  Clock. So he took the knee when he
• 59:30
  should have spiked it, is what we're saying on 3rd down.
• 59:33
  Yes, and they were saying that the clock was close to running
• 59:36
  out anyways, but they stopped the clock and 4th down had
• 59:40
  already passed. None of the officials seem to
• 59:43
  notice that they had already ran 4 plays the down marker
• 59:46
  operator. Where's the down guy?
• 59:48
  What's that guy? Did he fall asleep 3rd of?
• 59:50
  Course. What does he do?
• 59:51
  Until after the 4th down play had already been run.
• 59:55
  I'm sure the coach, the coaches had to be going nuts because
• 59:59
  they know that they had ran 4 plays.
• 1:00:01
  But Tom was put back in the clock and Porta hit a field goal
• 1:00:05
  at the buzzer. To win the game on 5th down.
• 1:00:08
  So the team that was winning that game at the time, like
• 1:00:12
  their coaches, didn't run out on the field and be like, hey, like
• 1:00:17
  what? What?
• 1:00:17
  Wait, what are we doing? Here I'm I'm running out there
• 1:00:19
  and tackling somebody. Somebody you're doing something
• 1:00:22
  like, how do you how, how do you allow that to happen?
• 1:00:27
  Well Zach Taylor did it in the AFC Championship against the
• 1:00:31
  Chiefs when the when the Chiefs got 5 downs when they I mean
• 1:00:37
  they got to stop on 4th and then they said that it was a flag so
• 1:00:41
  they got another. Chance, yeah.
• 1:00:42
  So this is this has happened in AFC championships.
• 1:00:45
  Not this brutal, not this obvious.
• 1:00:49
  Yes. I mean if Patrick Mahomes would
• 1:00:51
  have accidentally took a knee on 3rd down and then spiked it on
• 1:00:54
  4th and somehow they were allowed to still kick a still go
• 1:00:57
  to win the game, I would have been even more upset.
• 1:01:01
  Now we would have had Gene Sterator calling the officials
• 1:01:03
  in that game saying Nope, give him another down.
• 1:01:05
  So the Chiefs, we got away with it.
• 1:01:07
  The IHIHSA has a rule that any decisions made by officials are
• 1:01:11
  not subject to any sort of protest or review, so that that
• 1:01:16
  score is going to stand. Was that what a playoff game was
• 1:01:20
  it? I don't think it was a playoff
• 1:01:22
  game. That'll be a tough way to let
• 1:01:23
  your season come to an end. Yeah, but.
• 1:01:28
  Yeah, you can't have that happen.
• 1:01:29
  What do they do? Can't be getting 5 downs.
• 1:01:32
  I mean, if they were in Russia, they were in Russia, those
• 1:01:34
  officials would have been probably thrown in jail or
• 1:01:37
  whatever the hockey guy was subject.
• 1:01:39
  Dude, yeah, they're done. They're they're suspended for
• 1:01:44
  life. And maybe that's why we need to
• 1:01:46
  be a little more harder on officials like we talked about a
• 1:01:48
  couple weeks ago. Yeah.
• 1:01:51
  Do we need to talk about Tom Brady's dog?
• 1:01:52
  Yeah, no, we have to. Yeah, that's a wild story.
• 1:01:57
  So he his dog Luna dies in 2023. And before his dog passed away,
• 1:02:04
  he took a little blood. And with that blood, he was able
• 1:02:08
  to clone the dog through a company called Colossal
• 1:02:12
  Biosciences. And he now has a clone of his
• 1:02:17
  dog Luna. And that dog's name is Junie.
• 1:02:23
  Thoughts. It it blows my mind to be honest
• 1:02:27
  with you. Like how does that possible?
• 1:02:30
  I mean, I knew we did the whole clone thing with Dolly the sheet
• 1:02:33
  back in the day, and I don't even know if that was
• 1:02:35
  successful. I mean, I was not and this these
• 1:02:37
  same companies were involved in that.
• 1:02:39
  Like, it's absolutely wild that you can do something like that.
• 1:02:42
  And good for Tom Brady. I think.
• 1:02:44
  Like if your dog dies and you don't like dog, first of all,
• 1:02:48
  dogs are the greatest animal on earth.
• 1:02:50
  Dogs should never die. Dogs should outlive humans, you
• 1:02:52
  know, to be honest, but. Like kinda is doing that.
• 1:02:57
  Is I need? Is the dog?
• 1:02:58
  Is it? Does it look identical?
• 1:03:00
  Does it act identical you? Need to clone.
• 1:03:02
  But that's what a clone means, all right.
• 1:03:03
  So then when the dog like it's not a, how old is not a died
• 1:03:07
  probably old. I I don't have the age but.
• 1:03:09
  Then when you clone like a 13 year old dog, does the new clone
• 1:03:14
  have the like aged? Like is that a 13 year old dog
• 1:03:18
  that you got now? It's.
• 1:03:19
  It's still a baby, it's born, it's still a puppy when it's
• 1:03:22
  born, but it's going to grow up to have the same look and I
• 1:03:25
  guess the same personality is as the dog that it was cloned.
• 1:03:29
  How was it born? Who gave like what Did it pop
• 1:03:31
  out of a machine? It's they did the ember just
• 1:03:33
  like I don't know if they implanted into a dog or how they
• 1:03:37
  did it. That's not a clone.
• 1:03:38
  No, that's not a clone like they.
• 1:03:41
  Cloned this dog. Like a clone is like.
• 1:03:44
  Same company has cloned dogs for Barbra Streisand and for Paris
• 1:03:48
  Hilton and that was back in 2017 and 2022.
• 1:03:52
  So this is not the first time that they have cloned a dog.
• 1:03:54
  They just took dog D So they took dog DNA, put it on in like
• 1:03:59
  an embryo or something and did something like that.
• 1:04:02
  Like I'm thinking like Dolly the sheep.
• 1:04:03
  You know, you put a sheep in a machine and then out the machine
• 1:04:06
  comes another sheep right? Now, what happened back then, I
• 1:04:11
  mean, I don't know. I think it's actually pretty
• 1:04:13
  cool. No, I think it's pretty cool.
• 1:04:14
  Like I said, dogs are awesome. If you, if you're like love your
• 1:04:18
  dog like 99% of Americans do. And you know, you know, you have
• 1:04:22
  that attachment and you know, it's like part of the family and
• 1:04:24
  you lose a family member after 12 years, like it doesn't seem
• 1:04:27
  like you enough time. So dogs don't live long enough.
• 1:04:31
  So good for Tom Brady of, you know, bringing back the memory
• 1:04:34
  and the physical specimen of the dog that he loved.
• 1:04:38
  So good for Tom. I mean, I, there's no telling
• 1:04:41
  how much this cost a lot to, to, to get a dog that you've love
• 1:04:46
  cloned. But yeah, I mean, it's man's
• 1:04:50
  best friend for a reason. And when, when you lose your
• 1:04:53
  dog, it's, it's a super hard thing.
• 1:04:54
  And to be able to bring that back just a little bit is, I
• 1:04:58
  mean, if you can afford it, I, I can see why you would do that.
• 1:05:00
  But I absolutely understand it. I mean.
• 1:05:03
  The same company is known for its de extinction efforts, and
• 1:05:10
  they're they're they're trying to bring the the dodo bird back
• 1:05:13
  with. The dodo, which if if the
• 1:05:17
  company can bring back extinct animals like what's that?
• 1:05:19
  The woolly mammoth. That's I think the but.
• 1:05:23
  Like from back when I was in school, like the most famous
• 1:05:26
  extinct animal, I feel like it's the dodo bird.
• 1:05:29
  Everybody always talks about the dodo bird.
• 1:05:31
  I feel like if we if they're trying to bring it back.
• 1:05:33
  All right, so let's say we do the dodo bird and it's
• 1:05:35
  successful. Now we're starting to get down a
• 1:05:37
  little slippery slope. We're starting to get in like
• 1:05:39
  the Jurassic Park type kind of stuff.
• 1:05:41
  Well, Neil, all this stuff is slippery slope.
• 1:05:43
  This could be. All of this AI, all of this is
• 1:05:47
  slippery slope. Like we might be on our way to
• 1:05:49
  a. Robot.
• 1:05:50
  Jurassic Park type of situation, we don't want that, but.
• 1:05:53
  I mean all this technology that we're coming up with.
• 1:05:56
  Right now we're talking about the dog, like in this kind of
• 1:05:58
  what they were trying to do with Ted Williams.
• 1:06:01
  Well, he's frozen. Is he still frozen?
• 1:06:04
  Yeah, he he's still frozen. Like, like in that what they're
• 1:06:07
  in, in essence, aren't they trying to do something like this
• 1:06:09
  with Ted Williams to try to bring him back?
• 1:06:12
  The hope is yeah, yeah, he's frozen.
• 1:06:15
  He's. Been frozen for 25 years.
• 1:06:18
  Yeah, yeah, in essence. So when we he's just.
• 1:06:24
  Going I mean, in 2040, he's going to wake up for a long nap.
• 1:06:27
  What's when's Old Ted coming back?
• 1:06:29
  I need to know. You think about 400 again.
• 1:06:31
  Let's let's get all Ted back, get Teddy Ball game back out
• 1:06:34
  here. You know who else came back?
• 1:06:38
  Who that? Red Panda.
• 1:06:41
  Oh, she did. That's right.
• 1:06:44
  And she did it in pretty badass fashion.
• 1:06:49
  So she hurt. She broke her wrist in July at a
• 1:06:52
  WNBA game and she has not performed since.
• 1:06:55
  She works the Sixers Bulls game on Tuesday night and she does so
• 1:07:02
  we're in the Jordan 45 comeback jersey.
• 1:07:06
  That's GOAT status right there. Is it not?
• 1:07:08
  That is GOAT status. Like that's just tight.
• 1:07:14
  Like her coming back, we're in the we're in the 4-5, like Jay-Z
• 1:07:17
  said, pretty cool. And we've got the opportunity to
• 1:07:23
  see her in person. Did you actually?
• 1:07:25
  Did you? I was the participant.
• 1:07:28
  That was me. That's my claim to.
• 1:07:29
  Fame. What did you, what did you have
• 1:07:30
  to do? I threw her the bowls.
• 1:07:32
  I just thought I took the perfect toss of bowls so she
• 1:07:34
  could catch it, so she did. All over my field, Yeah, this is
• 1:07:38
  what, probably 2008 or 9? Yeah, somewhere around there.
• 1:07:43
  So they put obviously it's a baseball field, so you got to
• 1:07:45
  have a hard like surface. So we they put like a wood.
• 1:07:49
  Bore down like a. Wood board down and then your
• 1:07:52
  job was to what? Take the rice bowls and throw
• 1:07:56
  them to her on top of the unicycle and a perfectly
• 1:07:59
  fashioned, I had to throw it a certain way too, like sideways
• 1:08:02
  had a little spin on it. So I'd throw it perfectly to her
• 1:08:05
  so where she could catch it and not fall off the unicycle to
• 1:08:08
  where she then could perform her act.
• 1:08:09
  So I was a big part of that act and it was successful.
• 1:08:12
  I was, I, I bat, I threw 100%. I was 100% completion percentage
• 1:08:16
  that day. The panda was 100% in her bowl
• 1:08:19
  stacking on top of her head. So it was a great day all around
• 1:08:22
  there at the old slug. Do you do you think it's kind of
• 1:08:26
  crazy that she just relies on random people to that she
• 1:08:29
  doesn't have somebody that travels with her to do that?
• 1:08:32
  That is kind of great, I. Wonder.
• 1:08:33
  I wonder if that's changed now because her act was pretty new
• 1:08:37
  back then. Well, we as the B sing the bats
• 1:08:40
  at the time when we were there, I'm pretty sure we were the
• 1:08:42
  first baseball stadium that she had performed at.
• 1:08:45
  She'd always been basketball and whatever else, but I think we
• 1:08:48
  were the first outdoor baseball stadium that she had performed.
• 1:08:51
  At the time, but it's, it's, I'm glad she's back.
• 1:08:54
  I mean, she healed from that wrist injury pretty quick.
• 1:08:56
  I mean. I mean, can we, do we admit that
• 1:08:58
  she's probably the greatest halftime act that we've seen?
• 1:09:02
  She's up there and it's such a it's such a unique act.
• 1:09:06
  Like who would ever think that y'all, I'm going to ride this
• 1:09:09
  unicycle and I'm just going to kick balls.
• 1:09:12
  How do you and catch them? Yeah.
• 1:09:15
  So out of all that, what's real quick for me in the show, was it
• 1:09:19
  the slug? We've seen a lot of circus act
• 1:09:24
  type things that come through the slug for entertainment
• 1:09:26
  purposes, as you do in all AAA ballparks.
• 1:09:28
  I mean, that's what gets people there.
• 1:09:30
  Yep. What is your top one or two acts
• 1:09:33
  that you've seen roll through Global Slugger Field?
• 1:09:37
  I thought quick change was cool. Quick change was great.
• 1:09:40
  Which for those they just change their outfits a lot I.
• 1:09:45
  Mean. You can't go wrong with the
• 1:09:47
  famous chicken, famous chicken just it's a legend.
• 1:09:51
  So I I would probably go the chicken 1st and then maybe quick
• 1:09:55
  change but red pandas right there.
• 1:09:57
  Red paint is there. Yep, I think Quick Change is up
• 1:10:00
  there. The Chicago Boys I think was
• 1:10:03
  always one of my favorites where they're doing flips.
• 1:10:05
  Was that the? Acrobats.
• 1:10:06
  Or was that the buckets? That was the buckets are called
• 1:10:08
  bucket boys. Chicago Bulls were the acrobats
• 1:10:11
  and not like. That So they were the Chicago
• 1:10:12
  Bucket Boys and the Chicago Boys, right?
• 1:10:14
  Yeah, no, it's the bucket boys. Just the bucket boys.
• 1:10:17
  Yeah, they were from Chicago. Yeah, OK, yes, But no, the
• 1:10:20
  acrobatic ones that are flying through the air and jumping over
• 1:10:23
  people and doing all that crazy stuff, I think it's up there for
• 1:10:26
  me. Superstars.
• 1:10:27
  I think it was very, very entertaining.
• 1:10:30
  But the worst one I think I've seen Myron Noodleman.
• 1:10:34
  For cornwurst. Myron Noodleman.
• 1:10:37
  RIP. Yeah, he is dead unfortunately,
• 1:10:39
  but so when he was alive, the ACT not very good.
• 1:10:43
  No, I mean, I was never a fan, but you, you talked about how
• 1:10:45
  you got to help Red Panda with the bowls.
• 1:10:50
  Your boy picked up Myron Noodleman at the airport one
• 1:10:52
  time. You still just.
• 1:10:57
  Locked him there to be honest with you.
• 1:10:58
  No, he was a good dude. He was a good, I mean, his old
• 1:11:02
  actors would have a Halloween costume.
• 1:11:04
  Or the juggling guy turned. Into a business.
• 1:11:06
  Yeah, what was the juggling guy that got to juggle chainsaws?
• 1:11:09
  Remember him? Match hat, Match hat.
• 1:11:10
  He was all right. Match hat yeah yeah we we we
• 1:11:14
  used to have some good acts over at the at the slug I'm.
• 1:11:19
  Sure, some of them are still performing.
• 1:11:21
  Yeah, yeah, some of them. But all right, before we get off
• 1:11:27
  here, we got a so Doctor Phyllis Grant.
• 1:11:32
  Have you heard about her? Are you alone?
• 1:11:37
  And season ticket over for 76 years.
• 1:11:40
  She turned 100 years old on Halloween.
• 1:11:43
  She's been a football fan. A season ticket over for 3/4 of
• 1:11:47
  a century. And all those years that I
• 1:11:50
  talked about where they didn't start 9 and O, and now they've
• 1:11:52
  done it for two years in a row. I mean, she's got to be loving
• 1:11:55
  her life watching this. God bless her man.
• 1:11:56
  Like to sit through IU football for that long of a time and
• 1:12:01
  never have anything good happen. She's a deserves this.
• 1:12:05
  I hope she's enjoying every single bit of this that she
• 1:12:07
  deserves this man. All IU fans deserve this, but
• 1:12:10
  especially for somebody that stuck it out for that long and
• 1:12:14
  at the the young age of 100 now so good for her.
• 1:12:17
  Hope the Hoosiers bring home the entire title.
• 1:12:19
  I mean, if they weren't as good as they were, they'd be hosting
• 1:12:22
  a playoff game. But fortunately, well,
• 1:12:24
  fortunately they'll get that first round by and be end up
• 1:12:26
  playing at a neutral site. But no, good for her.
• 1:12:29
  Hope she is able to at least make it to one of these playoff
• 1:12:32
  games. No, I just, I just thought it
• 1:12:34
  was a cool story like the and the fact that, dude, that's what
• 1:12:37
  fandom's all about, right? And that's like sticking it
• 1:12:40
  through like thick and thin and just hoping that maybe one day
• 1:12:43
  we can we can make a run and. Are we going to be those Bengals
• 1:12:47
  fans at the age of 100 when they haven't been back to the Super
• 1:12:49
  Bowl and we suck? Let's be honest, as a kid, I
• 1:12:54
  didn't think we'd ever get to the Super Bowl.
• 1:12:56
  That's me neither. And we were at least able to
• 1:12:59
  experience that. Should have won it.
• 1:13:02
  We we lost Logan Wilson this week to the to the Cowboys.
• 1:13:06
  I mean that holding call against him on 3rd down will forever be
• 1:13:09
  burned in my brain. And one of the worst calls I've
• 1:13:12
  ever seen. And and in a game where they
• 1:13:13
  didn't call anything pretty much the whole game.
• 1:13:15
  It was called that. But yeah, I mean, at least the
• 1:13:20
  Bengals have got there. But.
• 1:13:23
  I want to win. We need to like Uncle Steve.
• 1:13:26
  Like Uncle Steve is that Bengals fan that's going to end up like
• 1:13:29
  Phyllis who just wears that that lucky Icky Woods jersey until
• 1:13:33
  he's 100 years old and he needs to see a Bengals Bengals Super
• 1:13:37
  Bowl. Yeah, I want it.
• 1:13:40
  I want it for Uncle Steve, but I want it for me too.
• 1:13:42
  Me too. But you know what, you got to
• 1:13:44
  play a little bit defensive, win football games and right now I
• 1:13:48
  don't. I think if me and you went out
• 1:13:49
  there and just, I don't think they could stop us.
• 1:13:53
  No, no. But the good news is we don't
• 1:13:56
  have to watch the Cincinnati Bengals this week because they
• 1:14:00
  are on by. Thank goodness.
• 1:14:03
  So Nope, but plenty of other things to watch with with hoops
• 1:14:07
  and football here. It's it's crossover season.
• 1:14:09
  Crossover season. So I I think we'll probably be
• 1:14:14
  back on Sunday. Yeah, I don't see why not we.
• 1:14:17
  Do not have a tournament to play.
• 1:14:18
  The Bengals aren't playing. So we'll be back here probably
• 1:14:21
  on Sunday to to recap the NFL and college football and college
• 1:14:25
  hoops and. Talk about whatever you got,
• 1:14:28
  cats and cards next week. Which is crazy, right?
• 1:14:31
  Wild that the Basketball Cats and Louisville, KY ravalries
• 1:14:35
  getting underway by ball game. A week from yesterday.
• 1:14:38
  Yeah, Game 3. Wild.
• 1:14:42
  It's just, it's going to be, it's going to be weird.
• 1:14:44
  Yeah, it's going to be weird. The cats and the cards playing
• 1:14:47
  before Thanksgiving. Yep.
• 1:14:50
  But it'll be fun learn a lot about these teams.
• 1:14:53
  Cards look good against South Carolina State They.
• 1:14:56
  Did. The game lasted 3 hours I felt
• 1:14:59
  like. It did.
• 1:15:01
