0:47
Speaker 1: I was looking forward to doing one on Christmas Day.

0:51
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm good with that. I don't know, you
0:54
Speaker 1: know how what we would discuss draft probably about exciting stuff.
1:01
Speaker 1: That's what's going on right now, that's for sure. A
1:03
Speaker 1: couple of buds, Yeah, talk about the Senior Bowl. Comft
1:09

1:11
Speaker 1: don't know yet. You'll find out very We're gonna find
1:13
Speaker 1: out soon. We'll get to go back to your roots there. Yeah,
1:17
Speaker 1: my hometown, man is where I was born, is it really?
1:20
Speaker 1: It's good. I've driven through there many many times. Didn't
1:23
Speaker 1: grow up there, I mean, yeah, we left when I
1:25
Speaker 1: was young. Yeah, it's a nice place. Actually, I can
1:27
Speaker 1: get back to my house still. I can drive to that.
1:30
Speaker 1: You know you should do that. I don't know why
1:31
Speaker 1: we're talking about this right now. You brought its mobile
1:33
Speaker 1: it is. Let's put that on the black burner for now. Okay,
1:36
Speaker 1: we'll get back to January talk when we have to
1:39
Speaker 1: get to January talk. Here's what's coming up on the
1:41
Speaker 1: show today though, final thoughts on week fifteen, our first
1:45
Speaker 1: look at the Dolphins, and a very special guest on
1:48
Speaker 1: the phone. Former Dolphins kicker oh Lindo Mary joins us
1:51
Speaker 1: on the program today, as does John Osier, and we'll
1:55
Speaker 1: get social with Josh Koby coming up. Linda marey Man
1:59
Speaker 1: a long time kicker in the He played a long time.
2:01
Speaker 1: It was a really good kicker for a long time.
2:03
Speaker 1: He played for quite a few teams, but mainly the
2:06
Speaker 1: Dolphins for the majority of his career and a friend
2:09
Speaker 1: of mine and um heck of a golfer, to see.
2:13
Speaker 1: This is a theme, obviously, the kicking theme. But they're
2:16
Speaker 1: all golfers. I only associate with people that play golf.
2:19
Speaker 1: If you don't play golf, then we really can't be friends.
2:23
Speaker 1: I mean we can try, but there's not much to
2:25
Speaker 1: talk about. Like us, we don't really have a lot
2:28
Speaker 1: to talk about it. How's your golf game, it's not
2:30
Speaker 1: very good? Yeah, then well the John will be here short.
2:34
Speaker 1: His golf game is worse than mine. Redskins Jaguars sixteen
2:39
Speaker 1: thirteen Final. The Jaguars Josh had twenty net passing yards
2:44
Speaker 1: in the game, a franchise low, fifty seven yards from
2:48
Speaker 1: Kessler thirty seven sackyards. There's your math and not a
2:53
Speaker 1: good day at the office. There the defense, whether you
2:56
Speaker 1: threw the interception late and then set him up near midfield.
3:00
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson churned out some yards on the final drive
3:02
Speaker 1: to get them into field goal range and then a
3:04
Speaker 1: point blank between the hash marks field goal to win
3:07
Speaker 1: it for the Redskins with no time remaining. And that's
3:11
Speaker 1: just a bad day at the office. On Sunday had again, Yeah,
3:14
Speaker 1: it wasn't a fun day, that's for sure. Um, but
3:17
Speaker 1: it did seem like the Jags had the game in
3:20
Speaker 1: control for the most part the entire game, and the
3:23
Speaker 1: late turn turnover did not help. A couple of late
3:27
Speaker 1: big plays by the Redskins allowed them to get in
3:31
Speaker 1: position for the field goal to win the game. But
3:33
Speaker 1: you know, it's just just a synopsis of how the
3:36
Speaker 1: season has gone for the Jags this year. Just I
3:39
Speaker 1: feel like we say that every week they found another
3:41
Speaker 1: way to lose, and we're all just kind of waiting
3:45
Speaker 1: for this to end so we can move on and
3:47
Speaker 1: get to next year. But we still have to talk
3:50
Speaker 1: about it. That's what I mean. Two more games to go.
3:52
Speaker 1: But this is this is kind of how it went
3:54
Speaker 1: on Sunday. I mean, you had a four string quarterback
3:57
Speaker 1: was on the street two weeks ago, comes out there
3:59
Speaker 1: and and runs around some It makes some throws, you mean,
4:03
Speaker 1: some other throws that weren't so great. Didn't you expect that?
4:06
Speaker 1: And then a veteran running back who can still run
4:10
Speaker 1: someone first ballot Hall of Famer, there's no doubt. But
4:14
Speaker 1: that's about it. That's all they had. On offense, they
4:16
Speaker 1: didn't have much and you could tell, you know, the
4:20
Speaker 1: enthusiasm level for the Jags defense probably wasn't all the
4:24
Speaker 1: way there. I mean, when you get to this point
4:26
Speaker 1: in this season, you're pretty much ready to shut it down.
4:30
Speaker 1: And unfortunately that's just reality. I mean, fans probably don't
4:34
Speaker 1: like to hear that, but that is reality when you're
4:37
Speaker 1: just ready to get done with it and and move
4:40
Speaker 1: on and hopefully something better happens next year. But I
4:43
Speaker 1: mean it's still some players had some nice games. Has
4:46
Speaker 1: had a really good game. I mean they held the
4:50
Speaker 1: Redskins is sixteen points v defense, Yeah, I mean the
4:54
Speaker 1: Jags offense right now is averaging a little bit more
4:57
Speaker 1: than that per game so far, so that should typically
5:00
Speaker 1: winning an NFL game, but not this year and especially
5:04
Speaker 1: not the last few games for the Jaguars offense. We
5:07
Speaker 1: got some things to talk through on offense. Tody Kessler
5:10
Speaker 1: was back out there, and we saw the passing yard
5:13
Speaker 1: totals there. The running back situation is now an interesting
5:18
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ahead with Carlos Hide inactive. You've traded
5:22
Speaker 1: a fifth round pick for him and now he's not
5:24
Speaker 1: even suited up. Leonard for Nette playing in the first half, okay,
5:29
Speaker 1: and then was back there to return kickoffs and I
5:32
Speaker 1: think you only had two touchers in the second half. Well,
5:35
Speaker 1: David Williams got the bulk of the carry's in the
5:37
Speaker 1: second half of the football game. He's a a practice
5:40
Speaker 1: squad player that was signed off the Denver practice squad
5:43
Speaker 1: in week six to this season. So what's going on
5:46
Speaker 1: a running back is a big question here. There's a
5:48
Speaker 1: lot going on and it's a lot of things up
5:52
Speaker 1: in the air right now. UM with Leonard number one,
5:57
Speaker 1: who knows what's going on with him. I mean, he's
6:00
Speaker 1: obviously had a lot of things happened this year, from
6:02
Speaker 1: suspensions to fighting to you know, a lack of good play. Um,
6:08
Speaker 1: there's a whole lot going on with him. UM, and
6:11
Speaker 1: the fact that he was put into return a kickoff
6:14
Speaker 1: is not good. I'll tell you that. It's not. Why
6:18
Speaker 1: it It kind of feels like a punishment or a
6:20
Speaker 1: demotion uh by Doug Morone or whoever to say go
6:25
Speaker 1: ahead and get out there. Maybe they didn't have someone
6:27
Speaker 1: else to return kicks, but I guarantee he was probably
6:31
Speaker 1: fourth or fifth string kickoff returner at that point. So
6:35
Speaker 1: there's there's a lot going on with him. He's got
6:38
Speaker 1: to figure out some things on his end individually, UM,
6:42
Speaker 1: and hopefully he gets it figured out and is ready
6:46
Speaker 1: to go next season, because it just seems like this
6:49
Speaker 1: is a last season for him, obviously for it is
6:53
Speaker 1: for the team. Um, but he he was there's a
6:56
Speaker 1: reason he was a top five draft pick and he
6:59
Speaker 1: really has to start acting like it on and off
7:02
Speaker 1: the field. Just a strange sight to see him off
7:05
Speaker 1: to the sideline when when it's a one score game,
7:08
Speaker 1: it's a tight football game and he's your he's your
7:11
Speaker 1: starting running back and he's not in football and then
7:13
Speaker 1: came out with a foot injury after the long run late,
7:17
Speaker 1: kind of limped off there, and he'll be on the
7:19
Speaker 1: report this week, Doug Maron said with a foot Yeah, Dougs,
7:21
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know if you're gonna play that audio.
7:23
Speaker 1: But Doug Maron's comments on it was that he didn't
7:27
Speaker 1: even realize that that had happened until it was too late.
7:31
Speaker 1: So for for that to happen is kind of a
7:34
Speaker 1: little strange for me just as a former player. It's
7:36
Speaker 1: kind of strange to get that feeling that that was
7:40
Speaker 1: a sequence in which had happened. Now to the positive
7:43
Speaker 1: part of Sunday's game, Special Teams, What a day it
7:48
Speaker 1: was for the special teams units for this and you know,
7:52
Speaker 1: in the stands as a spectator like I was, I mean,
7:56
Speaker 1: it was fun to watch the kickers and punters do
7:59
Speaker 1: their job, and obviously the return game as well. Uh.
8:03
Speaker 1: You always think of the special teams as an afterthought
8:06
Speaker 1: as the third phase offense defense, and then special teams
8:10
Speaker 1: way off as a third but they were by far
8:14
Speaker 1: and away the better team of the of the three,
8:18
Speaker 1: and Logan Cook had his best game as a Jaguar
8:20
Speaker 1: without a doubt. The seventy two yard net punt that
8:24
Speaker 1: he had was one of the best punts I've ever seen.
8:27
Speaker 1: I mean, it was amazing. But his numbers with a
8:30
Speaker 1: fifty two yard gross uh and fifty yard net, that's
8:34
Speaker 1: gonna raise your average way up because his numbers were
8:37
Speaker 1: pretty far down. Um And obviously you see right there,
8:40
Speaker 1: but um, you know it was He's he's had kind
8:44
Speaker 1: of a tough season, but he's trending in the right
8:47
Speaker 1: direction to go into next year. And obviously, Kai for
8:51
Speaker 1: Bath got signed because of Lambeau being hurt and hopefully
8:56
Speaker 1: it's not too much of an injury that's gonna prevent
8:59
Speaker 1: him from being out too long. But uh, for Bath
9:02
Speaker 1: did a great job in his place and made both
9:04
Speaker 1: of his field goals and and uh also Logan Cook
9:08
Speaker 1: kicked off very well too, a couple of touchbacks for him,
9:10
Speaker 1: which he did that in college. He did kick off.
9:12
Speaker 1: He's got a big leg, whether it's punning or kicking off,
9:16
Speaker 1: so he's very capable of that. But uh, you know,
9:19
Speaker 1: good job by for Bath to come in and and
9:21
Speaker 1: put points on the board. Logan Cook now with the
9:23
Speaker 1: second longest punt in the league this year, and it
9:27
Speaker 1: was all almost in the air. That was the impressive part.
9:29
Speaker 1: It didn't roll twenty yards, it was it was a
9:31
Speaker 1: most needed to flip the field. And I mean it's
9:34
Speaker 1: went from the Jaguars ten yard line to the Redskins
9:38
Speaker 1: eighteen yard line. That is that is, if there's flipping
9:41
Speaker 1: the field that is doing it, that is a long way.
9:43
Speaker 1: And that Logan Cook now tied for seventh in net
9:47
Speaker 1: punting average in the league this year. That's great. I mean,
9:49
Speaker 1: he he didn't start there, that's for sure. It's great
9:54
Speaker 1: to to get to this point as a specialist, especially
9:57
Speaker 1: late in the year. It's it's really hard to get
9:59
Speaker 1: numbers to get better late in the year because you
10:02
Speaker 1: have a big sample size, especially when it comes to punting,
10:06
Speaker 1: and the Jaguars have punted a lot this season, so
10:09
Speaker 1: kudos to him. He's obviously worked hard, he's been hitting
10:13
Speaker 1: the ball much better, and the coverage team has been
10:15
Speaker 1: doing their job. Josh Lambeau off to the side. So
10:18
Speaker 1: for Bath, as you said, had to come in there
10:20
Speaker 1: in an emergency and kick here. As a you've been
10:25
Speaker 1: injured during a season before us, the worst thing that
10:28
Speaker 1: can happen for a guy, especially when he's kicking well,
10:30
Speaker 1: like Josh was, Yeah, it's it's not fun to ever
10:33
Speaker 1: be injured, but as a kicker, no position players ever
10:38
Speaker 1: expect a kicker to be injured, so when it happens,
10:41
Speaker 1: it's very annoying. And I spoke to Lambeau last week
10:44
Speaker 1: whenever it happened, and he was just trying to, you know,
10:47
Speaker 1: pick my brain about the times that I've been injured
10:50
Speaker 1: during the season, and I just told him to, you know,
10:53
Speaker 1: trust what the trainers are telling you. Rehab as fast
10:56
Speaker 1: as you can, don't worry about it. On See, this
11:00
Speaker 1: is a bit of a lost season, but he's still
11:03
Speaker 1: having a fantastic season and he's gonna be around here
11:07
Speaker 1: long term and hopefully the front office uh for the
11:12
Speaker 1: Jags decide to offer him a nice long term contract
11:15
Speaker 1: and get him here for a while, because he's been
11:18
Speaker 1: fantastic since he got here last year. He really has,
11:21
Speaker 1: and I hope he gets well for sure. UM but
11:23
Speaker 1: call fore beast went around the league a little bit.
11:25
Speaker 1: Now when he can come in and fill that role
11:28
Speaker 1: as long as he needs to hear. You know, he's
11:29
Speaker 1: a very accurate kicker. I was actually with him in
11:33
Speaker 1: New Orleans, UH for the preseason, the last place I was.
11:37
Speaker 1: Didn't he feel like I was there, but he and
11:39
Speaker 1: I kind of got to know each other. UH played
11:41
Speaker 1: a lot of golf for the month that I was
11:43
Speaker 1: there together. And he's very accurate kicker. Doesn't have the
11:47
Speaker 1: biggest leg, but he's you know, he's played seven years
11:50
Speaker 1: already in the league and UH career field goal percentage
11:53
Speaker 1: of eighty four, which is very good. And UH he's
11:57
Speaker 1: the type of guy that fills in like this, and
12:00
Speaker 1: he honestly shouldn't have been out of a job whenever
12:02
Speaker 1: he was with the Vikings because they drafted a kicker
12:05
Speaker 1: and decided to release him. Um. And but they've since
12:09
Speaker 1: signed Dan Bailey and and dance doing just fine. But guys,
12:13
Speaker 1: you know, done a good job in the league for
12:15
Speaker 1: seven years. A couple of late news nuggets today, the
12:19
Speaker 1: Jaguars just before four o'clock announcing that a couple of
12:22
Speaker 1: practice squad players have been claimed by other teams. Alan Lazard,
12:26
Speaker 1: the wide receiver, goes to the Packers, and the Seahawks
12:30
Speaker 1: signed running back both Starborough off the Jaguars practice squads.
12:34
Speaker 1: So the Jags added a couple of players to the
12:36
Speaker 1: practice squad today. But you know when we're talking about
12:39
Speaker 1: the running back position here and you had Scarborough in
12:42
Speaker 1: the room, but here comes the Seahawks to take him
12:45
Speaker 1: away from you for their last couple of games of
12:48
Speaker 1: the season. Yeah, it'll be interesting to see what happens. Um.
12:51
Speaker 1: I was very shocked to see Carlos Hide with the
12:54
Speaker 1: healthy scratch or whatever happened Sunday, because the Jags gave
12:58
Speaker 1: up a draft pick for him, and he's obviously a
13:01
Speaker 1: talented back with a lot of starts in the NFL,
13:05
Speaker 1: So I'm sure whatever is going going on with him,
13:07
Speaker 1: hopefully that in soon, um, But it will be interesting
13:11
Speaker 1: to see if Leonard for Nett can go this week
13:14
Speaker 1: and if Carlos Hide is healthy and if he's gonna play,
13:18
Speaker 1: play left to come on Jaguars Happy or the final
13:21

16:14
Speaker 1: thanks for coming on with us. How are you great?
16:18
Speaker 1: Thanks for having me. It's Dolphins week, so we like
16:21
Speaker 1: to get a former Dolphin on the line. Where are
16:24
Speaker 1: you now? Where are you living? I lived just north
16:27
Speaker 1: of Charlotte in Carolina. Wow, okay, that's a little different
16:30
Speaker 1: than South Florida. I guess it is definitely different than
16:34
Speaker 1: South Florida. A lot of Linda. It's it's Josh, by
16:38
Speaker 1: the way, Thanks for coming on, but uh, this is
16:44
Speaker 1: a new number something. You don't recognize his voice, but
16:48
Speaker 1: it seems like a lot of former kickers and punters
16:52
Speaker 1: relocate to Charlotte. What's the deal with Charlotte. Ah, So
16:59
Speaker 1: in my neighborhood, Jason Baker lives here, right, Brad Maynard
17:09
Speaker 1: lives here. Um, Jason Elam, I just bought a place
17:14
Speaker 1: up this way, and then I know down in Charlotte, Um,
17:18
Speaker 1: suck up, Andy Lee. There's four or five. I don't know.
17:22
Speaker 1: I don't know. You tell me. I mean, the only
17:24
Speaker 1: reason why I was here is because I had a
17:27
Speaker 1: place like fifteen years ago. And then you know, when
17:31
Speaker 1: you get old, you start moving around from town to town.
17:33
Speaker 1: And I went to New Orleans and I got hurt.
17:35
Speaker 1: And I was right after Katrina when I broke my hip,
17:38
Speaker 1: and I was like, well, I'm not staying here in
17:41
Speaker 1: My house in South Florida is sold, and I was like,
17:43
Speaker 1: let's gonna try this Carolina thing out. I ended up
17:46
Speaker 1: signing year four years later. So that's why we're here.
17:50
Speaker 1: It's halfway from South Florida and my wife from Long
17:53
Speaker 1: Island in New York meet in the middle. Why not
17:56
Speaker 1: that makes a lot of sense. Far enough from everybody,
17:59
Speaker 1: but close enough for everybody. A little distance in there.
18:04
Speaker 1: It kind of sounds like you guys are starting some
18:06
Speaker 1: type of secret society, like a fraternity of former kickers
18:11
Speaker 1: and punters there that obviously I didn't get the invitation
18:14
Speaker 1: for so um yeah. So it's so it's an invite only.
18:19
Speaker 1: We basically get together once a month and just bash
18:22
Speaker 1: all the people who are not here. And uh, you
18:26
Speaker 1: know last month it was you. We had a great day.
18:29
Speaker 1: It's a great day. That's a wow. We were just
18:33
Speaker 1: talking about, like at it now says that I had
18:38
Speaker 1: fifty three touchbacks and Scobie at thirty nine. Wait a minute,
18:42
Speaker 1: when when was this? What year? This was two thousand eleven?
18:47
Speaker 1: You must have got I'm just I'm just looking at
18:50
Speaker 1: the NFL histories here. I was just, uh, you know,
18:53
Speaker 1: I think I just turned forty. However, however, and I
18:57
Speaker 1: was beating and I was beating the young kid. You
19:00
Speaker 1: also played for a team then that actually scored points?
19:03
Speaker 1: You probably, Yeah, No, that was Cam Newton's what rookie year? Yeah, man,
19:09
Speaker 1: that's when he he had He had a he had
19:12
Speaker 1: a great I believe it or not. A record wasn't great,
19:15
Speaker 1: but you know, we did have a good team. Rivera's
19:18
Speaker 1: first year and all that stuff. So we actually played
19:21
Speaker 1: you guys in the Monsoon game. You remember that. I
19:25
Speaker 1: remember the Matt Turch got released after that when um,
19:32
Speaker 1: he dropped the punt snap and the coach they cut
19:36
Speaker 1: him and he I guess his excuse, not really an excuse,
19:40
Speaker 1: was he said he watched the film in like thirteen
19:45
Speaker 1: passes were dropped by Jack Warre's receivers. That sounds but
19:49
Speaker 1: wait a minute, none of those guys got cut. Well,
19:51
Speaker 1: we also had blame gather and throwing him the ball too,
19:53
Speaker 1: So there's that was one of the worst ring games
19:57
Speaker 1: I've played in in my the only other. And I
20:00
Speaker 1: think you might have been a part of a a couple
20:01
Speaker 1: in Miami. You know. Now it's like unbelievable's like a dome.
20:04
Speaker 1: But back then we had the clay. We had, you know,
20:09
Speaker 1: no roof, and you know, I think at the time,
20:12
Speaker 1: you know, when I was there, I think that Marlin's
20:14
Speaker 1: and went to the World Series two or three times,
20:16
Speaker 1: so that clay was there till like November, and uh,
20:20
Speaker 1: you know when you start getting wet in there, and
20:22
Speaker 1: that's a dangerous place. But I was recently for doing
20:27
Speaker 1: the points up there, and maybe a couple of months
20:29
Speaker 1: ago and I mean that stadium is unbelievable. I mean,
20:32
Speaker 1: the grass, everything about it's nice. You know, Linda Barre
20:36
Speaker 1: is with us. How much football do you watch these days? Linda? Um,
20:41
Speaker 1: I'm starting to watch a little more and more. I've
20:43
Speaker 1: got four kids. I've got the eight eleven, thirteen year
20:48
Speaker 1: old girl and a sixteen year old boy, so three boys.
20:52
Speaker 1: So the boys are you know, the older ones are
20:53
Speaker 1: getting into it with their friends, you know, so more
20:57
Speaker 1: and more. Um, you know, I enjoy watch in it.
21:00
Speaker 1: And I'm sure you know, Josh to back me up
21:03
Speaker 1: with this, I think it's harder to watch. Um. Yeah,
21:08
Speaker 1: I don't know as many guys, you know, and and
21:11
Speaker 1: so you know, like this, the last two summers, I
21:14
Speaker 1: was in Houston, um, helping a former friend, Larry is
21:18
Speaker 1: a special teams coach, out with this young kicker. They
21:22
Speaker 1: had a Kaimi Fairbaron, who's you know, he's doing really well.
21:27
Speaker 1: But as Josh knows, like all the guys that we
21:29
Speaker 1: played with are either college coaches or NFL coaches, they're
21:33
Speaker 1: not on the field. So it's a little harder to
21:35
Speaker 1: watch a bunch of these guys that you don't really know,
21:38
Speaker 1: you know, Yeah, it's hard to really root for certain
21:41
Speaker 1: people or certain former players because they're not around anymore
21:46
Speaker 1: or former teammates. Yeah, I mean, I'm you know, obviously
21:49
Speaker 1: I root for the Jaguars, but you know, I'm watching
21:51
Speaker 1: the games and half of them I don't have a
21:53
Speaker 1: clue who they are, and I got to look them
21:55
Speaker 1: up and figure out that, especially with what I'm doing now.
21:59
Speaker 1: But yeah, completely understand where you're at with that. Yeah,
22:04
Speaker 1: the you know, the Jaguars are not on my They're
22:07
Speaker 1: not on my good list. You know. My my biggest
22:10
Speaker 1: memory of Jacksonville, there's there's two of them. One obviously
22:16
Speaker 1: the blowout we had, um which was Marino's last game. Yes, yes,
22:23
Speaker 1: I was, Yes I was, and now I mean it
22:27
Speaker 1: was I forgot it was. It was like twenty eight
22:30
Speaker 1: nothing in the first half. I actually saw Fred Taylor
22:34
Speaker 1: not too long ago, and you know, I think he
22:37
Speaker 1: reminded me of it also, But um uh it was,
22:41
Speaker 1: you know, that was it. And then we had another
22:43
Speaker 1: game that we had a we had a punter in
22:45
Speaker 1: for some reason and he walks out at halftime. It
22:50
Speaker 1: was a windy game and he couldn't pump like he
22:54
Speaker 1: he could pump, but he couldn't and he has this
22:58
Speaker 1: like handy problem them all of a sudden and he's like,
23:01
Speaker 1: I can't punt, And I was like, wait a minute,
23:05
Speaker 1: you put it the first half he didn't get hurt,
23:07
Speaker 1: super windy, and all of a sudden, So like I
23:09
Speaker 1: go out there and I think I punted a couple
23:12
Speaker 1: or whatever. But those are like my last memories of like,
23:16
Speaker 1: what the hell is going on here in Jacksonville. I'm
23:20
Speaker 1: pretty sure we lost that game, but they're they're heading
23:23
Speaker 1: in the right direction, hopefully, I hope. So who's that way,
23:27
Speaker 1: Miami or Jacksonville. Who's who's heading in the red gime?
23:29
Speaker 1: I hope both of them. Yeah, I do know coach Marone,
23:31
Speaker 1: you know Sircus guys, and um, I know Coughlin obviously,
23:38
Speaker 1: so I think, uh, you know, I was going to
23:42
Speaker 1: say they're similar, except Jacksonville's defense is pretty legit um
23:47
Speaker 1: right now and Miami's got a bunch of young players.
23:49
Speaker 1: So you know, maybe this isn't the year, but I
23:52
Speaker 1: think it's I think they're both going forward, if you
23:56
Speaker 1: know what I mean. Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah, I
23:58
Speaker 1: mean obviously with the AAG Wars this year, we had
24:01
Speaker 1: high expectations, as did everyone around here for this season,
24:06
Speaker 1: and it's it's been a huge disappointment. Um. I think
24:09
Speaker 1: Miami season is turning out to be a lot better
24:13
Speaker 1: than the Jaguars right now. But you're right, both teams
24:15
Speaker 1: are ascending. Uh you know, in terms of positivity. It
24:20
Speaker 1: just doesn't feel like it's down here, uh in in
24:23
Speaker 1: Jacksonville right now. Yeah, because you're in the you're in
24:26
Speaker 1: the middle of it. You know, you talk to you know,
24:29
Speaker 1: obviously every time you go out and somebody as a
24:30
Speaker 1: football fan or something, you talk to these people and
24:33
Speaker 1: to try to explain like reality to them, you know,
24:36
Speaker 1: because they only hear what they see on TV or read.
24:39
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, each team has you know, four
24:43
Speaker 1: three two whatever it is, like superstars, and then you
24:47
Speaker 1: got four or three filling guys and everybody else is
24:49
Speaker 1: in between and howard coach, what position they play, if
24:53
Speaker 1: they have a good day, who's hurt, who's not, you know,
24:56
Speaker 1: and who makes least amount of mistakes. I mean read,
25:00
Speaker 1: abody is good in the NFL. I mean, you know
25:02
Speaker 1: that's one thing that people forget, like, you know, the
25:04
Speaker 1: guys on the other sideline. Not only do they get
25:07
Speaker 1: paid as much. They just you know, they work as hard,
25:09
Speaker 1: and it's just I mean, it's so small. The margin
25:12
Speaker 1: for air is so small in the NFL that you know,
25:16
Speaker 1: I think it's you know, you seem like each team
25:19
Speaker 1: is just like you know, as you know you've been
25:21
Speaker 1: in the in the meeting rooms. You know, if we
25:24
Speaker 1: just did this and that, it would have been different,
25:25
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like, I mean, it's it's
25:27
Speaker 1: to me, it's that close. So I think, like, you know,
25:31
Speaker 1: the big turnarounds and these big things obviously, you know,
25:34
Speaker 1: you know if you look at you know that like
25:37
Speaker 1: like you know, Telichick or Indy Read are these guys
25:39
Speaker 1: that have been doing it for recision years and successful,
25:42
Speaker 1: you know, I mean some of it is just I mean,
25:45
Speaker 1: you know it's not even about that. Sometimes your record,
25:47
Speaker 1: I mean, didn't Schotenheimer gets fired for going fourteen and
25:51
Speaker 1: two or something? You know, that's what the that's the
25:55
Speaker 1: last guy told me I forgot. I did something on
25:57
Speaker 1: the radio and he said, how does that guy go
25:59
Speaker 1: fourteen and two? And then um, I forgot? I apologize
26:03
Speaker 1: the guy for the Cleveland won three games and three years, Like,
26:06
Speaker 1: how does that even work? Well, you know, it's weird.
26:10
Speaker 1: It's very weird. Yeah, that from top to bottom there's
26:13
Speaker 1: not a whole lot of difference between the talent level
26:16
Speaker 1: um and that's the way that it's supposed to be
26:18
Speaker 1: set up. And it's all about execution. And the teams
26:22
Speaker 1: that stay healthy the longest and execute the most and
26:27
Speaker 1: and and don't turn the ball over the or turn
26:30
Speaker 1: the ball over the fuse amount of times are going
26:32
Speaker 1: to give themselves the best chance to win. And that's
26:34
Speaker 1: what Jacksonville has done this year. But we appreciate you
26:39
Speaker 1: coming on with us and and chatting a little bit.
26:41
Speaker 1: And it's always good to get a former player on
26:43
Speaker 1: and get perspective of of when you play with that team,
26:50
Speaker 1: Dophins or not. You'd say whatever you want, except uh,
26:53
Speaker 1: yeah you can say that. I think you just said it.
26:57
Speaker 1: Thanks for your time, man, Good talk to you. Hey.
27:00
Speaker 1: I always appreciate you letting me in on Jacksonville. H
27:06
Speaker 1: make sure I call the Dolphins and tell them all
27:08
Speaker 1: the insight you guys gave me. Great, we'll see that
27:11
Speaker 1: on Sunday then. Thanks Linda. All right, Linda, thanks awesome, guys,
27:14
Speaker 1: appreciate you having me all right, Thank you, Linda, mar
27:17
Speaker 1: longtime kicker. One are the greats really in the NFL history?
27:21
Speaker 1: You know, I mean that the guy played ten years
27:23
Speaker 1: in Miami, sixteen year career, You might be the best
27:26
Speaker 1: kickoff specialist in the history of the NFL. He heard
27:31
Speaker 1: him brag about the amount of touchbacks he had that year. However,
27:35
Speaker 1: go back and look at it. Two thousand and eleven,
27:37
Speaker 1: I had I think the first or second best kickoff
27:41
Speaker 1: touchback percentage in the NFL. We'll look that up in
27:43
Speaker 1: the break. We'll come back with John Osier will look
27:46
Speaker 1: a little more at the Dolphins, including their specialist when
27:49

29:58
Speaker 1: the Biami Dolphins. We do it each of every Tuesday.
30:00
Speaker 1: We look at the other teams. Specialist Jason Sanders, a
30:05
Speaker 1: rookie kicker from New Mexico. Pretty good this year, Joshua.
30:09
Speaker 1: That's seventeen of eighteen. Wow, for this guy probably leads
30:12
Speaker 1: the NFL. I would think in percentage right now, that's
30:15
Speaker 1: really good. Pretty close. That hack is the putter from
30:19
Speaker 1: Arizona State, second year man net of thirty nine point to.
30:25
Speaker 1: The long snapper at the bottom has four tackles this year.
30:28
Speaker 1: Probably the biggest long snapper you'll ever see. He's been
30:31
Speaker 1: around for a while, fourteen years from Yu. He is large.
30:34
Speaker 1: He's like six five six six, and he looks like
30:39
Speaker 1: like a caveman basically, long hair, big old chops. Here.
30:44
Speaker 1: Uh loves some golf too. How long is the Cowboys
30:49
Speaker 1: long stamper been around lads not as long close though, right, Yeah,
30:56
Speaker 1: probably ten years or so. But Denny's been around for
30:58
Speaker 1: a long time. Danny was with uh Lindo whenever Linda
31:02
Speaker 1: was there in mind. Yeah, okay, so he's been around
31:05
Speaker 1: a while. The specialist watches in. It's Sean Ozier's favorite
31:09
Speaker 1: segment each and every show, and the senior writer joins us, Now, Hi, John,
31:13
Speaker 1: what are we doing here with? How is not available?
31:15
Speaker 1: Can we not call microphone up a little bit? We
31:17
Speaker 1: need a kicker. Mike wouldn't be able to see over
31:20
Speaker 1: the desk. Get a chair for him. What we're doing here?
31:24
Speaker 1: Linda mary Man? Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was I've covered
31:29
Speaker 1: games with Linda more playing in. That's right. He's the
31:31
Speaker 1: insight you brought today. Yeah, I mean so he was good.
31:36
Speaker 1: He was good. Good kicker. Here's a good kicker. The
31:39
Speaker 1: Jaguars struggling again, of course. Sixteen thirteen, the final Redskins.
31:43
Speaker 1: We touched on this running back stuff earlier, John, what
31:47
Speaker 1: is what is going on with a running back position?
31:49
Speaker 1: All of a sudden with high inactive for net not
31:52
Speaker 1: touching the ball in the second half, David Williams getting
31:54
Speaker 1: carries both Scarborough claimed by the Seahawks. By the way,
31:59
Speaker 1: what's what now? Well, you're gonna play David Williams, I
32:03
Speaker 1: think quite a bit on Sunday, play a little bit
32:06
Speaker 1: of t J Yeldon. I'm sure four Nette will start.
32:10
Speaker 1: Uh if healthy he's got a foot now, Uh, clearly
32:13
Speaker 1: they're done with Carlos Hyde. You know, if they're not
32:16
Speaker 1: done with Carlos Hide, I don't know why you would
32:20
Speaker 1: deactivate him as a healthy scratch. That's usually the place.
32:23
Speaker 1: You know, Barry Church was deactivated healthy Scratch and then
32:27
Speaker 1: was gone. So you know it's not a guarantee. But
32:31
Speaker 1: if if that's not gonna happen, then you wonder why
32:34
Speaker 1: it happened. Uh on Sunday, so you get a heavy
32:38
Speaker 1: dose to Dave Williams. I think you know, if last
32:42
Speaker 1: week was a message to four Nett, it's certainly sounded
32:45
Speaker 1: if you listening to Doug reading between the lines afterward,
32:48
Speaker 1: that he's basically saying we're not gonna lose a whole
32:50
Speaker 1: lot with David Williams in the game to fo Net,
32:53
Speaker 1: which you know that's uh, he really loves David Williams.
33:00
Speaker 1: Doug or it is ready to see what else you
33:04
Speaker 1: got it. I'm not sure that that Leonard ran as
33:08
Speaker 1: well in his two games back after suspension as he
33:12
Speaker 1: did against Buffalo. In Pittsburgh. He looked on it. He
33:16
Speaker 1: looked like he was throwing guys off, running as hard
33:19
Speaker 1: as the god times last year. He didn't look like that.
33:22
Speaker 1: In the last couple of games he was good. I
33:26
Speaker 1: mean both of those games yards against Pittsburgh got against Buffalo. So, Um,
33:32
Speaker 1: that guy is a really good effective running back. I
33:37
Speaker 1: Doug said done Monday. It's you can't discount the offensive
33:42
Speaker 1: line injuries and what they have done to this offense
33:46
Speaker 1: as a reason for for net run the way he is.
33:48
Speaker 1: So at this point, you got two games left in
33:50
Speaker 1: the season. Um, fans talk all the time about wanting
33:55
Speaker 1: to see what somebody else has. Well, that's what they did.
33:59
Speaker 1: What they went today, That's what it looks like. Yeah,
34:01
Speaker 1: they're gonna get a lot of those younger guys on
34:03
Speaker 1: the field the last couple of weeks. Now, fans who
34:05
Speaker 1: want that, Josh, don't complain if you get housed on Sunday. Yeah,
34:10
Speaker 1: there's a fine line there because if you want to
34:12
Speaker 1: see the guys, but they don't want to get crap
34:15
Speaker 1: kicked out. If you're doing that. Don't ride into the
34:19
Speaker 1: ozone and blame her own for it. This is the
34:22
Speaker 1: both public service announcement for that. If you want the
34:25
Speaker 1: young guys to play right, they might play like young
34:28
Speaker 1: guys jp yea, they might you know. So, Um again,
34:32
Speaker 1: I've said a couple of times, I think most people
34:33
Speaker 1: realize that, Uh, the last two games are gonna be
34:35
Speaker 1: really tough. You're on the road against teams ma'am, Miami's
34:40
Speaker 1: barely in it, but they're still in it road games
34:43
Speaker 1: and not Joshing probably speaking is better than I can
34:46
Speaker 1: because he's been on teams that have been out of
34:47
Speaker 1: it unfortunately. UM, road games, when you're out of it.
34:52
Speaker 1: Home games, it's easy or to sort of fight the
34:56
Speaker 1: good fight and everybody's together and you're feeding out the ground.
34:59
Speaker 1: Road games have a different element where even when guys
35:02
Speaker 1: want to try, when they want to stick together, if
35:04
Speaker 1: something goes bad and you're out of it on the road,
35:07
Speaker 1: it's tough to get back in it. And it's I
35:08
Speaker 1: think it's just human nature. It's not that you don't
35:10
Speaker 1: want to play well, it's just, you know, human nature.
35:14
Speaker 1: Once you're out of it and you're on the road,
35:16
Speaker 1: I haven't seen that many teams play well in that
35:20
Speaker 1: situation very often, um in twenty four years, don't it. Yeah,
35:25
Speaker 1: it's it's deflating, is the word you can use for it,
35:28
Speaker 1: because especially when you get behind on the road late
35:31
Speaker 1: in the year, when you're no longer in it, because
35:33
Speaker 1: you hear it from the fans and everyone's walking around
35:36
Speaker 1: with their shoulders slumped, and like you said, it's human nature.
35:39
Speaker 1: That's just the way it is. And people get frustrated,
35:42
Speaker 1: just like anyone else does in life whenever things are
35:46
Speaker 1: going poorly and you're just kind of hoping for them
35:49
Speaker 1: to end a little bit sooner than they really will.
35:51
Speaker 1: And I still maintain everybody wants to talk about that
35:57
Speaker 1: as quitting, it's not. And it's a hard distinction to
36:01
Speaker 1: make because everybody talks about a quitting. But it's more
36:05
Speaker 1: dB goes for an interception, trying to make a play,
36:09
Speaker 1: but not always playing within that team concept. It's more, uh,
36:15
Speaker 1: you know, maybe selfish. Yeah, you get individual and selfish
36:19
Speaker 1: on it and you think maybe if I make a play,
36:22
Speaker 1: then I'll stand out and I'll look good to the
36:24
Speaker 1: coaches and they'll I'll put it on tape for the
36:26
Speaker 1: rest of the league, and so I think that's that's
36:29
Speaker 1: part of it, and it's the difficult job for a
36:32
Speaker 1: coach is keeping that together and keeping it all moving
36:34
Speaker 1: in the same direction, because, as everybody knows, the line
36:37
Speaker 1: is so fine in the NFL between winning and losing
36:40
Speaker 1: anyway that if you've got a couple of that one
36:43
Speaker 1: or two plays like that, all of a sudden, guys
36:45
Speaker 1: going fifty six yards against Tennessee, you know, make it
36:49
Speaker 1: look a lot worse than it probably is. And so
36:52
Speaker 1: again I think, I think the last two weeks are
36:53
Speaker 1: gonna be uh josh for him. He's wrapping up, putting
37:00
Speaker 1: a bow on it. This was this is the last
37:02
Speaker 1: one with him. I feel like a senior today. I'm like,
37:05
Speaker 1: you know, it's the last day of school, so I
37:07
Speaker 1: can say whatever I want to do, whatever I want
37:09
Speaker 1: to going to you add right, so yeah, I'm probably
37:11
Speaker 1: gonna Yeah. It was a parade that was always the
37:16
Speaker 1: most as in a side that was always the most
37:19
Speaker 1: amazing thing to me. When the seniors in high school
37:22
Speaker 1: would write, you know, we're out of here seniors now,
37:27
Speaker 1: I was thought, yeah, you gotta get a job. I
37:31
Speaker 1: guess what Careful asked on my way to junior car. Yeah,
37:37
Speaker 1: it's still kind of out of here. Well, nless you
37:39
Speaker 1: were in there high school. Ain't that bad? The real
37:42
Speaker 1: world is worse. And on that note, On that note, defensively,
37:48
Speaker 1: speaking of the young guys playing well, some young guys
37:51
Speaker 1: are playing now on defense and some of that's due
37:54
Speaker 1: to injury, some of that is not. But um, you're
37:57
Speaker 1: this is what the defense is starting to see too. Well.
38:00
Speaker 1: Good news. Tven Bryant is stepping up and playing well.
38:04
Speaker 1: Uh you know, Smoot has played a little more in
38:06
Speaker 1: recent weeks and played better. Uh, you would almost you know,
38:13
Speaker 1: you don't want to see anybody hurts. I'm not gonna
38:15
Speaker 1: phrase it that way, but Ramsey Boy and Hayden are
38:19
Speaker 1: awfully tough to get off the field. You would love
38:22
Speaker 1: to see Meeks. You would love to see Trey Herndon.
38:25
Speaker 1: Those are two guys they really like. Um, so you
38:29
Speaker 1: wonder if you I can't imagine you're going to see
38:32
Speaker 1: either those guys play over those guys, but that would
38:34
Speaker 1: be an ideal situation. Jared Wilson played pretty well the
38:37
Speaker 1: other day. Nick de Luca playing but again, you're just
38:41
Speaker 1: not gonna see them sit frontline guys. I don't think
38:46
Speaker 1: in favor of younger guys who need the shot. It
38:50
Speaker 1: has to happen mostly through injuries. Fortunately, on offensive had
38:53
Speaker 1: so many injuries that it's not really an issue on
38:55
Speaker 1: defense there the coaches are still gonna want to save
38:58
Speaker 1: some face when it comes to finishing out. The last
39:01
Speaker 1: two coaches still want to win, you know they do.
39:03
Speaker 1: It's they want to keep their jobs as well. The
39:06
Speaker 1: difference in six and ten with a couple of wins
39:08
Speaker 1: at the end, you win twice. All of a sudden,
39:10
Speaker 1: you've won three of your last five, right because you
39:12
Speaker 1: beat the Colts lost two. Winning three of the last
39:16
Speaker 1: five when people are making decisions sounds a lot better
39:19
Speaker 1: than losing twelve of your last thirteen. That's not a
39:23
Speaker 1: good status, whatever the number is. Two years ago when
39:26
Speaker 1: Doug Moron came in this interim, one two of the
39:30
Speaker 1: last three is what it was. One one of two
39:32
Speaker 1: but played much better Blue Tennessee out and then should
39:36
Speaker 1: beat in. The Colts carried momentum yeah, into an a
39:41
Speaker 1: f C Championship appearance. Really good season and momentum is
39:46
Speaker 1: huge even even if there is an off season in between, right,
39:49
Speaker 1: so there's always that push and poll with it. But yeah,
39:52
Speaker 1: I mean there will be guys to watch simply because
39:56
Speaker 1: injuries have forced there to be guys to watch. Ye
40:00
Speaker 1: South standings, the Houston Texans just can't lose all of
40:03
Speaker 1: a sudden. When they lost a couple of weeks ago,
40:05
Speaker 1: they snapped the winning stream. They lost, but they want
40:09
Speaker 1: to get last week there tendant four. They lead the way,
40:11
Speaker 1: of course, Indian Tennessee fighting for a wild card, and
40:17
Speaker 1: the Jags at the bottom. They have the a f
40:18
Speaker 1: C South. Of course, remaining games with the Jags at
40:21
Speaker 1: Miami and at Houston, and at Houston will still have
40:25
Speaker 1: plenty left to play for in that game. As we
40:27
Speaker 1: mentioned there, I mean there as we sit right now
40:30
Speaker 1: the number two seed in the a f C playoffs today,
40:33
Speaker 1: right there behind the Chiefs and ahead of Yes, so
40:36
Speaker 1: you would think they have a lot to play for,
40:38
Speaker 1: which is gonna make that game really tough. So there
40:42
Speaker 1: you have it. Yeah, thanks for Jimmy there standing just
40:45
Speaker 1: making sure you were aware of what was going on
40:48
Speaker 1: in the a f C South. John, Thanks, So we're

43:44
Speaker 1: Happy Hour on this Tuesday, JP Shadrick Josh Scoby, Final
43:48
Speaker 1: segment of the year with Josh Scoby. We're not having
43:51
Speaker 1: a Tuesday show the rest of the way because I'm
43:53
Speaker 1: not coming that on Christmas, it's somebody's birthday on Tuesday
43:57
Speaker 1: week it is, and then it's New Year's Day the
44:01
Speaker 1: week after that. That's America's other birthday. Is it just
44:05
Speaker 1: the New Year America's other other birthday? What about all
44:08
Speaker 1: the other countries that celebrate well? Ours is more important
44:12
Speaker 1: than the best. So it's a good point. That's an
44:15
Speaker 1: excellent point. Let's get to a social scope today. Let's
44:18
Speaker 1: start off with question number One's actually your comment. Uh.
44:22
Speaker 1: This is from earlier in the week when UM Jalen
44:25
Speaker 1: Ramsey said he ain't worried about nobody but myself after
44:28
Speaker 1: the game, when I asked about Doug Brone and his
44:31
Speaker 1: thoughts about the coach coming back and all that. It's
44:34
Speaker 1: a Philip Island tweet and this is what you had
44:37
Speaker 1: to say. I mean, I could have gone on and
44:42
Speaker 1: on about this, but my whole point but behind it
44:45
Speaker 1: was you really have to take care of yourself before
44:50
Speaker 1: you have before you worry about the team. It's number one.
44:53
Speaker 1: Worry about you before you worry about the person next
44:56
Speaker 1: to you. Yes, I understand when you're on the field,
44:59
Speaker 1: you you have to play a role as part of
45:02
Speaker 1: a team, but you have to take care of number one.
45:05
Speaker 1: And that's Jalen's mindset. He takes care of himself on
45:10
Speaker 1: and off the field. He really doesn't think about too
45:13
Speaker 1: many other people when it comes to that type of thing.
45:16
Speaker 1: But the point stands, and the tweet stands. It's it's
45:21
Speaker 1: an individual game in the broad scheme of things, um,
45:25
Speaker 1: even though people call it a team game. All right,
45:28
Speaker 1: And being a kicker for my entire career typically you are.
45:34
Speaker 1: You are your own player and your single person of
45:38
Speaker 1: your own team for your entire career. So that's that's
45:43
Speaker 1: what kind of what I meant by that. But Jalen, uh,
45:45
Speaker 1: he probably could have said it a little bit better.
45:47
Speaker 1: But I think he's a young star player, how to
45:51
Speaker 1: say things, that's frustrated learning his way, and we we
45:59
Speaker 1: still should be lucky that he's on this team because
46:03
Speaker 1: he's he's a really good player, and he's he's gonna
46:07
Speaker 1: learn a lot in this offseason at least, I hope.
46:11
Speaker 1: Let's continue another Josh Scobie Jim during the game, please
46:15
Speaker 1: take Kessler out a lot of Jack's chance. I kind
46:20
Speaker 1: of had this thought during the game, you know, but
46:23
Speaker 1: this one got a lot of attraction, by the way. Yeah,
46:26
Speaker 1: look at all those hearts and the retweets what do
46:29
Speaker 1: we call him? The favorites likes? What is it? Likes
46:33
Speaker 1: and retweets and comments and whatnot. Yeah, I mean I
46:36
Speaker 1: was in the stands watching it and it just got
46:39
Speaker 1: to be nauseating and I couldn't couldn't take it. So
46:43
Speaker 1: that's gonna do it now? No, they're not, and they're
46:46
Speaker 1: not gonna put Blake back in for a few different reasons,
46:49
Speaker 1: but yeah, I I just wanted to see a little
46:53
Speaker 1: bit more and at least throw the ball. That looked
46:55
Speaker 1: like he was reluctant to even attempt a pa us,
47:00
Speaker 1: as you can see by the fifty seven total passing
47:04
Speaker 1: yards net of twenty or whatever it was, so it
47:09
Speaker 1: just got to be, uh, extremely annoying. Well, they had
47:12
Speaker 1: one late, but it was overturned on the offensive past
47:16
Speaker 1: interference by Montcrieft. In the next play he tries to
47:19
Speaker 1: push it down overthrow ball interception and well, I guess
47:24
Speaker 1: you'd say hindsights still it. I mean throughout the entire game.
47:29
Speaker 1: I mean he would pull the ball down early and
47:31
Speaker 1: run a lot quite a bit, and it was it
47:35
Speaker 1: was frustrating to watch, and I could hear it all
47:37
Speaker 1: around me in the stands, that's for sure. Let's get
47:41
Speaker 1: to a fan question now on Twitter today. This is
47:44
Speaker 1: from that Metalworld Crazy. What was Josh's favorite Christmas present
47:47
Speaker 1: when he was a kid? Great question, it's a really
47:50
Speaker 1: good question. Let me think about this first second. Um, So,
47:56
Speaker 1: I mean I grew up playing baseball in soccer, and
48:00
Speaker 1: I remember the favorite thing I ever got was a
48:03
Speaker 1: pair of soccer cleats that I had wanted for a
48:05
Speaker 1: long time. They were Adida's Copa soccer cleats and they
48:09
Speaker 1: still make them there the exact same now as they
48:11
Speaker 1: were back then, but they were really expensive and my
48:15
Speaker 1: parents boughttom for me, and I remember like putting them
48:18
Speaker 1: down by my bed when I went to bed that night,
48:21
Speaker 1: and I would turn on the light and just look
48:23
Speaker 1: at them, turn the light back off, turn on the
48:25
Speaker 1: light and look at them, like, man, I finally got
48:27
Speaker 1: these cleats. So when I got to high school, that's
48:31
Speaker 1: what our team cleats were. We got them for free then,
48:34
Speaker 1: and I waited all that long time to get them,
48:37
Speaker 1: you know, for free, but my parents paid for them.
48:40
Speaker 1: I think even back then they were about a hundred dollars.
48:43
Speaker 1: So that was that was my best present. It's a
48:45
Speaker 1: healthy about for some yeah back in the mid nineties
48:51
Speaker 1: yea early nineties. Yeah, Well, I don't know, they asked you.
48:56
Speaker 1: I think mine is either a I'm gonna answer anyway,
48:59
Speaker 1: what was your favorite present? Um? I had There was
49:01
Speaker 1: a football. There was a Joe Montana football that had
49:05
Speaker 1: his name autographed into it, like remember that deal, And
49:08
Speaker 1: I had one of those. And then my first record
49:10
Speaker 1: player right, record player and CD player. I had both
49:15
Speaker 1: at the same time. Well, I had record player at
49:16
Speaker 1: the house, but my own from my own room, right
49:18
Speaker 1: was that. But I had my first CD player. First
49:21
Speaker 1: CD ever, Jimmy Buffett's greatest hit, Wow, came with the package.
49:25
Speaker 1: It was like, Wow, this is pretty cool. That's pretty cool.
49:28
Speaker 1: I couldn't even tell you who my first CD was
49:31
Speaker 1: it ever, had probably Tupac or something. But that's hand
49:35
Speaker 1: me down from my brother. It's a little different from
49:37
Speaker 1: Jimmy Buffer. Yeah, a little different. Um, interesting thought here
49:41
Speaker 1: on Facebook comments today. Thanks for your comments on the
49:43
Speaker 1: Facebook program today. Um, Joe brack uh Bria Tico about that,
49:50
Speaker 1: if your head coaching job was on the line, would
49:53
Speaker 1: you be playing Cody Kessler and Williams in the fourth
49:55
Speaker 1: quarter of a tight game? Interesting thoughts there. It's very
50:00
Speaker 1: interesting thought. Um, No, that would be my answer. No,
50:04
Speaker 1: if you're trying to win the game, you're going regardless
50:08
Speaker 1: of the scenario, regardless of what's going on, You're gonna
50:12
Speaker 1: be putting the players out there they give you the
50:14
Speaker 1: best chance to win, and it's not Kessler and and
50:17
Speaker 1: David Williams. However, David Williams did look good on Sunday
50:21
Speaker 1: and the opportunities that he had. But there's more talent
50:26
Speaker 1: on the sideline than when he was on the field,
50:29
Speaker 1: So definitely not. What's the what's the Christmas situation with
50:34
Speaker 1: the young guns still? Oh yeah, absolutely they if they're watching,
50:40
Speaker 1: um yes, um yeah, San is gonna be bringing them
50:44
Speaker 1: quite a few gifts. And frankly, I think he gets
50:47
Speaker 1: too much credit because I'm the one paying for it.
50:49
Speaker 1: Um But um, so they've been good this year. They've
50:53
Speaker 1: been luckily, I've been blessed with a very good kids.
50:57
Speaker 1: And you know, there's a week left and I think
51:00
Speaker 1: I'm done shopping for them now I have to find
51:03
Speaker 1: something for a couple other people. But they get a
51:06
Speaker 1: lot of presents and they love some Christmas just like
51:10
Speaker 1: kids should. Is one of those um people start with
51:14
Speaker 1: a J and end with a P and the last
51:16
Speaker 1: name s h eight no eight no no, no not quite.
51:21
Speaker 1: But I'll just I'll put him down real quickly and
51:23
Speaker 1: I won't see you between now. This is your last show,
51:24
Speaker 1: so I don't you know, I'll mail it up here.
51:27
Speaker 1: You want autograph, No, I don't want an autograph alright?
51:31
Speaker 1: That hurt now, Linda mar If we can get him
51:34
Speaker 1: back on the line, I'd take one. He did play
51:37
Speaker 1: longer than me, so I can understand what really did
51:40
Speaker 1: uh that social school? He is done for the day.
51:42
Speaker 1: Thank you for the questions, for the comments throughout the year.
51:45
Speaker 1: In fact, Josh's favorite segment one of them. Yeah, I
51:49
Speaker 1: think it's always good to get the fan perspective and
51:53
Speaker 1: and see the rational and irrational thoughts and questions from
51:56
Speaker 1: from our fan base. Tough week this week. This is
51:59
Speaker 1: gonna be the next two. As John was staying there,
52:02
Speaker 1: It's at Miami, it's at Houston. Both teams, both opponents
52:06
Speaker 1: have playoff aspirations still, the Jaguars do not there four
52:09
Speaker 1: and ten, So just the matchup going in, it's tough.
52:14
Speaker 1: Where will you watch the game on Sunday? I'll be
52:16
Speaker 1: at home, Uh luckily, so I'll be watching it at
52:20
Speaker 1: the house and rooting them on. And just like if
52:24
Speaker 1: they were tending four, I'd be rooting them on the
52:26
Speaker 1: exact same way. But you know, it's gonna be a
52:29
Speaker 1: tough matchup. Like you said, Dolphins are in the playoff hunt.
52:33
Speaker 1: If they win the last two, they're going to give
52:35
Speaker 1: themselves a pretty good chance of making it. And Uh,
52:38
Speaker 1: as you've seen, it's actually a hard place to go
52:40
Speaker 1: and play. For some reason, Tom Brady doesn't like to
52:43
Speaker 1: go there. So if tom Brady struggles there, then everyone
52:47
Speaker 1: else is probably going to as well. Um, we had
52:49
Speaker 1: a beat this year and then the miracle the rock
52:53
Speaker 1: out there. They can't tackle, So it's gonna be a
52:56
Speaker 1: tough last two weeks for the Jags. Uh. I can't
52:59
Speaker 1: tell you how many times I've finished a season in Houston.
53:03
Speaker 1: I don't know why the NFL likes to schedule these
53:07
Speaker 1: last or week seventeen games Jaguars at Houston, but they
53:11
Speaker 1: like to do it. And Uh, it'll be a very
53:14
Speaker 1: tough match up there. Um, depending on what Houston does
53:17
Speaker 1: this week, they probably have a good chance to lock Yeah,
53:21
Speaker 1: if they win this week, they lock up the division,
53:22
Speaker 1: they lock up a home game, but they still have
53:25
Speaker 1: that chance of getting the first round by so. Um
53:29
Speaker 1: they're on a tear right now, and the Jaguars aren't. Josh,
53:34
Speaker 1: have a have happy holiday and well done on the
53:37
Speaker 1: show throughout the year. Man, Yeah, it was fun and
53:39
Speaker 1: let's do it again. Let's do it again next year.
53:41
Speaker 1: Why not come up with some new stuff, fun stuff
53:46
Speaker 1: and Jaguars have a better season and we make it
53:50
Speaker 1: more fun. I like that. Josh Scoby, our entire crew,
