- 0:00Speaker 1: Oh, what is going on?
- 0:01Speaker 2: I hope you're early Friday morning festivities or grand hope
- 0:06Speaker 2: everything's going well.
- 0:08Speaker 1: I want to get to in a few minutes. It
- 0:10Speaker 1: was a very.
- 0:11Speaker 2: Popular opinion a few months ago, and it's turned out
- 0:16Speaker 2: to be completely wrong.
- 0:18Speaker 1: A lot of.
- 0:18Speaker 2: People were saying this over and over and over. Popular
- 0:23Speaker 2: opinion has been completely wrong. I'll give you that just
- 0:26Speaker 2: a couple of minutes here, But I want to start off.
- 0:29Speaker 2: We got another sex toy on the court of a
- 0:32Speaker 2: WNBA game. Now, this is the fourth sex toy that
- 0:36Speaker 2: has reached the court of a WNBA game. Now, there
- 0:39Speaker 2: are a couple of layers here. I didn't realize what
- 0:42Speaker 2: was going on. I'm like, wait a minute. So over
- 0:46Speaker 2: the last week and a half, there have been four
- 0:49Speaker 2: sex toys that have been thrown onto a WNBA court
- 0:53Speaker 2: during the game. Okay, what I didn't realize was all
- 0:58Speaker 2: of the sex toys that were thrown at WNBA games
- 1:02Speaker 2: that didn't reach the court. Because I'm looking at this
- 1:06Speaker 2: and I'm like, okay, I'm looking at all this information.
- 1:09Speaker 2: It's just all kinds of stuff. I'm not gonna bombard
- 1:11Speaker 2: you with all of these things, but a couple of
- 1:13Speaker 2: them are kind of interesting, as best I can tell,
- 1:17Speaker 2: And I tried to research this as best I can.
- 1:19Speaker 1: It's it's tough.
- 1:20Speaker 2: It's like you ever see a beautiful mind where Russell
- 1:24Speaker 2: Crowe is kind of losing his mind and he's like, oh,
- 1:26Speaker 2: this connects to that and this means this, And that's
- 1:29Speaker 2: how I was trying to figure out the timeline of
- 1:33Speaker 2: the sex toys being thrown on WNBA courts. This is
- 1:36Speaker 2: the best I can tell. So I believe this started
- 1:40Speaker 2: back on July twenty ninth, so a little more than
- 1:44Speaker 2: a week ago. It was Tuesday to twenty ninth. It
- 1:48Speaker 2: was the Valkyries and the Dream. There was a man
- 1:51Speaker 2: that was arrested, Delbert Carver, twenty three years old, threw
- 1:56Speaker 2: a sex toy on the court. Now he was arrested
- 1:59Speaker 2: and charged with get this, those in all these charges
- 2:02Speaker 2: disorderly conduct, public in indecency, slash, indecent exposure, and criminal trespass.
- 2:11Speaker 1: Sounds like a lot of stuff.
- 2:12Speaker 2: Like I'm no lawyer, I don't know, if you know
- 2:16Speaker 2: he's found guilty all across the board what that means.
- 2:19Speaker 2: But that's a lot of stuff to be charged with.
- 2:22Speaker 2: I know that much, and so I'm piecing this together. Okay,
- 2:25Speaker 2: it happened a couple of nights later, Friday, August first,
- 2:28Speaker 2: Valkyri's Chicago Sky Game.
- 2:31Speaker 1: All right.
- 2:32Speaker 2: Then I'm like, wait a minute, something's weird with August fifth.
- 2:36Speaker 2: So this is Tuesday, August fifth, one week after the
- 2:40Speaker 2: first sex toy was thrown on the court. Okay, and
- 2:43Speaker 2: so I'm reading this story about an eighteen year old
- 2:47Speaker 2: who was arrested. He tried to throw a dildo on
- 2:51Speaker 2: the court. Didn't make it, you know, didn't reach the court.
- 2:55Speaker 2: It hit like an uncle and the niece, like a
- 2:59Speaker 2: nine year old niece or something like at these two people.
- 3:02Speaker 2: It didn't make it onto the court. This guy was tackled,
- 3:04Speaker 2: you know, he was arrested, the whole thing. And he
- 3:08Speaker 2: said the eighteen year old, this guy named Caden Lopez,
- 3:12Speaker 2: he told officers. He was like, it's just a stupid
- 3:16Speaker 2: prank that I was that was trending on social media.
- 3:19Speaker 2: He apologized that I'm sorry, I was just following this
- 3:21Speaker 2: stupid prank. That's what it is, like, go back to
- 3:24Speaker 2: when you were eighteen. Now, I wasn't like dildo thrown
- 3:29Speaker 2: on the court stupid during a game.
- 3:32Speaker 1: When I was eighteen, but it's pretty freaking stupid.
- 3:35Speaker 2: And if there was something that, oh, it's just the
- 3:38Speaker 2: new thing to do, I probably would have been like,
- 3:40Speaker 2: oh cool.
- 3:41Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 3:41Speaker 2: It's like there's plenty of things I've done at eighteen
- 3:45Speaker 2: years old that were completely dumb, and looking back.
- 3:47Speaker 1: Like, what the hell was I thinking? That's what's happening here?
- 3:51Speaker 2: But that happened at a Connecticut Son Phoenix Mercury game.
- 3:58Speaker 2: All right, wait a minute, didn't That same night there
- 4:03Speaker 2: was a sex toy that hit Sophie Cunningham of the
- 4:07Speaker 2: Indiana Fever, And.
- 4:09Speaker 1: I'm like, wait a minute.
- 4:10Speaker 2: On that same night, August fifth, there was another sex
- 4:14Speaker 2: toy thrown at the Wings Liberty game, and that sex
- 4:19Speaker 2: toy didn't reach the court. So on the same night
- 4:22Speaker 2: there were three different games. I didn't realize any of this.
- 4:27Speaker 2: I'm piecing it together, like, wait, okay, we got the
- 4:30Speaker 2: section of this is the fourth sex toy that has
- 4:32Speaker 2: reached the court, But there's another like sub section of
- 4:37Speaker 2: sex toys that are thrown at games that haven't reached
- 4:40Speaker 2: the court, but they were thrown nevertheless, Like I'm like,
- 4:44Speaker 2: oh my gosh, I didn't realize all all this stuff
- 4:48Speaker 2: is happening. But that's where we are. I don't know
- 4:52Speaker 2: what the official count is. There are at least four
- 4:55Speaker 2: sex toys that have made it onto the court, which
- 4:59Speaker 2: is stupid and dangerous. It hits Sophie Cunningham. It could
- 5:03Speaker 2: have been way worse that the trend like the fun
- 5:06Speaker 2: is over. At least that's how I see it. Maybe
- 5:09Speaker 2: you look at the first one like oh wow that,
- 5:12Speaker 2: or it hits Sophie Cunningham and you're like, wow, that's
- 5:14Speaker 2: kind of a coincidence. She put it out there on
- 5:16Speaker 2: X like stop doing this, and then she's the one
- 5:18Speaker 2: who gets hit by it. And to me, the fun
- 5:22Speaker 2: is over, if there ever was any fun, the fun
- 5:24Speaker 2: is officially over.
- 5:25Speaker 1: This is dumb. It's played out. It's not even like
- 5:29Speaker 1: oh wow, Like.
- 5:30Speaker 2: The whole shock value of it is worn off, like
- 5:34Speaker 2: the betting aspect of you could bet.
- 5:36Speaker 1: On the color of the next one to reach the court.
- 5:39Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 5:40Speaker 2: To me, the whole thing is just like what are
- 5:42Speaker 2: we doing at this point? Like this thing is done?
- 5:45Speaker 2: Like this is the equivalent of well, I don't even know.
- 5:48Speaker 2: I don't want to make it the exact same thing,
- 5:51Speaker 2: but you know, when something gets played out where it
- 5:54Speaker 2: was cool for a month for someone to say, Oh,
- 5:58Speaker 2: he's all that and a bag of ship, and then
- 6:01Speaker 2: someone said it like months later that it was a
- 6:04Speaker 2: completely outdated No, we're not doing that anymore. Man's It's
- 6:07Speaker 2: like someone shows up to the party now and dabs
- 6:10Speaker 2: and you're like, Wow, dude, that's that way, or no, man,
- 6:15Speaker 2: that's not the thing.
- 6:16Speaker 1: That's where I'm at with this whole thing. It's wow.
- 6:19Speaker 2: It's time to turn the page on this one. But
- 6:23Speaker 2: does that not blow your mind? I didn't know that.
- 6:25Speaker 1: I didn't know.
- 6:26Speaker 2: On Tuesday, just a couple of nights ago, three different games,
- 6:31Speaker 2: sex toys are just being thrown around from the crowd
- 6:34Speaker 2: trying to make it onto the court. They might just
- 6:37Speaker 2: hit someone upside the head and not make it to
- 6:39Speaker 2: the court. By the way, I'll turn the page on
- 6:42Speaker 2: all this. I just had a flashback, so I'll tell
- 6:45Speaker 2: you a brief story. This has nothing to do with
- 6:49Speaker 2: sex toys being thrown at games, but it reminded me
- 6:52Speaker 2: of one game I was at a famous game and
- 6:54Speaker 2: something else was thrown and it didn't quite make the field.
- 6:58Speaker 1: But so what I would do?
- 7:00Speaker 2: So I'm from South Bend, Indiana and way back in
- 7:05Speaker 2: what was it five? I was part of the Notre
- 7:10Speaker 2: Dame pregame show. And what was awesome about that is
- 7:15Speaker 2: they would give you a pass. You could go up
- 7:18Speaker 2: to the press box and watch the game, and you
- 7:20Speaker 2: could actually go down to the field for the final
- 7:23Speaker 2: five minutes of the game. Really cool, right, And I
- 7:27Speaker 2: went to the Bush Push game. There's USC at Notre Dame.
- 7:30Speaker 2: Famous game. And so this is gonna sound like first
- 7:34Speaker 2: world problems, but I actually hated being in the press
- 7:39Speaker 2: box because it's enclosed in glass. You can't feel the crowd.
- 7:44Speaker 2: It's a quote unquote working environment. You can't er, you
- 7:48Speaker 2: know what I mean. Like, I'm a lifelong Notre Dame fan.
- 7:50Speaker 2: Notre Dame scores a touchdown against number one ranked USC,
- 7:55Speaker 2: and I'm just supposed to sit on my hands.
- 7:56Speaker 1: And be like, oh, that was a good play.
- 7:59Speaker 4: Man.
- 8:01Speaker 1: I'm not built like, I can't do that. I can't.
- 8:03Speaker 2: So what I would do throughout that season, I would
- 8:07Speaker 2: just stand on top of the press box. You could
- 8:10Speaker 2: go up this flight of stairs and be up there
- 8:13Speaker 2: where the Eagles nest, you know, and have this bird's
- 8:16Speaker 2: eye view of the entire stadium. You can feel the crowd.
- 8:21Speaker 2: You could cheer if you wanted to. I'm like, this
- 8:24Speaker 2: is the spot. So for that USC game, it was packed,
- 8:28Speaker 2: Like everybody's on top of the press box and you're not.
- 8:33Speaker 2: It's like there's a ledge in front of you. It's
- 8:35Speaker 2: you know, it's almost like kind of like a treehouse
- 8:39Speaker 2: or something, I don't know, something like that. So it's
- 8:42Speaker 2: not like we're just standing on a slab of metal
- 8:45Speaker 2: and we might topple over at any point. It's it's
- 8:48Speaker 2: kind of like enclosed, right, But it was packed. I
- 8:50Speaker 2: think they closed it down after that game. There were
- 8:53Speaker 2: way too many people up there. They're trying to film
- 8:56Speaker 2: the game, and all these people are up there from nowhere,
- 9:01Speaker 2: but I wedged my way in. I'm watching the game
- 9:04Speaker 2: on top of the breast box and I don't know why.
- 9:07Speaker 2: There was a touchdown score Notre Dame scored a touchdown.
- 9:10Speaker 2: The crowd's going crazy, and for whatever reason, something just
- 9:13Speaker 2: caught my eye in the crowd. This one guy was
- 9:17Speaker 2: celebrating and he was sitting up pretty far, pretty up there,
- 9:20Speaker 2: you know, high up, and he took it had to
- 9:25Speaker 2: be like this super big gulp, this obnoxiously huge, either
- 9:32Speaker 2: thermous or like literally a big gulp, like this monstrous
- 9:35Speaker 2: sized soda, and to celebrate, he just threw it as
- 9:40Speaker 2: far as he could. He just heaved this thing and
- 9:44Speaker 2: I'm watching it just soar through the air, just majestically
- 9:49Speaker 2: soared toward the field, didn't quite make the field, and
- 9:53Speaker 2: about the tenth rower or something. It just bam nails
- 9:58Speaker 2: this dude on the side of the head.
- 10:00Speaker 1: I'm like, oh.
- 10:03Speaker 2: Man, what you got those people at games? Man, these people,
- 10:07Speaker 2: it's a good idea, you know, but sorry, the the
- 10:13Speaker 2: the dildo's being thrown at w NBA games and not
- 10:16Speaker 2: quite reaching the cord. I had a flashback with the
- 10:19Speaker 2: Bush push game. You know, you never know who's listening.
- 10:24Speaker 2: It's the famous line with radio.
- 10:26Speaker 1: It's so true.
- 10:27Speaker 2: I've had so many times throughout the years where something
- 10:30Speaker 2: peculiar happens, and this this person was listening.
- 10:34Speaker 1: Really another real cool story.
- 10:37Speaker 2: So I do a show on Sundays, it's called Countdown
- 10:41Speaker 2: and one of the guys on the show, it's it's
- 10:42Speaker 2: Jeff Schwartz, former NFL player, and it's Bill Krackenberger. He's
- 10:46Speaker 2: a professional sports handicapper and crack is here in Vegas
- 10:51Speaker 2: and it was a couple of weeks ago, he sent
- 10:54Speaker 2: a text to the group and he was like, hey,
- 10:56Speaker 2: I met Frank Caliendo.
- 10:58Speaker 1: I met him.
- 10:58Speaker 2: We ate some pizza. You know, I was out, he
- 11:01Speaker 2: was out. We're like, hey, you want to hang out.
- 11:03Speaker 2: He's like, he listens to the show on Sunday. I
- 11:06Speaker 2: guess he's got this whole routine he I don't know.
- 11:08Speaker 2: He he does like some sort of physical therapy, or
- 11:11Speaker 2: he gets in a pool and early on a Sunday
- 11:13Speaker 2: morning and he listens to the show. It's like, oh
- 11:16Speaker 2: my gosh, that's awesome. Frank caley Endo is hilarious. I
- 11:20Speaker 2: love that guy. You never know who's listening in radio.
- 11:24Speaker 2: I would not be shocked at all if either the
- 11:27Speaker 2: dude who threw the big gulp at the Bush Bush
- 11:30Speaker 2: game was listening or the dude who got knocked upside
- 11:33Speaker 2: the head was listening, Like, yeah, I was that guy.
- 11:36Speaker 2: I don't know what hit me. It was a big gulp. Really,
- 11:39Speaker 2: that's what That's the magic of radio, right there, no
- 11:42Speaker 2: doubt about that. All right? Coming up next, feel free

- 13:30Speaker 2: The way tire buying should be. All right, let me
- 13:33Speaker 2: throw a quick take at you and I'll get right
- 13:35Speaker 2: to the militia. I want to pay this off real quick.
- 13:38Speaker 6: Though.
- 13:39Speaker 2: It was a very popular opinion just a few months ago,
- 13:42Speaker 2: and it's turned out to be completely wrong.
- 13:44Speaker 6: Now.
- 13:44Speaker 1: It's it's not over.
- 13:46Speaker 2: With yet, We're still early in the game, but it's
- 13:49Speaker 2: trending toward people being dead wrong.
- 13:51Speaker 6: Right.
- 13:51Speaker 2: So, when Shador Sanders was about to get drafted and
- 14:00Speaker 2: the first round came and went no Shadeur Sanders being drafted,
- 14:03Speaker 2: and then day two came and went no Chadur in
- 14:07Speaker 2: rounds two or three, and at that time it was
- 14:11Speaker 2: very popular to say, well, I mean, if you draft Shador.
- 14:15Speaker 2: You gotta deal with Dion Sanders, right, what if Deon
- 14:19Speaker 2: Sanders shows up. Deon Sanders's gonna weigh in, He's gonna
- 14:22Speaker 2: have all these opinions about what the Browns should be.
- 14:25Speaker 2: They should be playing Shador. Why aren't they playing my son?
- 14:28Speaker 2: That's what a lot of people were saying. Has Deon
- 14:31Speaker 2: done any of those things? There was a story this
- 14:34Speaker 2: week where Deon Sanders was maybe gonna go check out
- 14:38Speaker 2: training camp and Shadeur.
- 14:39Speaker 1: Was like, Pops, like, just.
- 14:42Speaker 2: Just don't bother. It's gonna be a circus, it's gonna
- 14:45Speaker 2: be a whole thing. Let's just let's not do that.
- 14:48Speaker 2: So Dian hasn't even been there. Has he said anything
- 14:51Speaker 2: about the Browns. Have you caught a clip? Do you
- 14:53Speaker 2: see anything on Sports Center where Dion is like, what's
- 14:56Speaker 2: up with my son not getting first team reps?
- 14:58Speaker 1: What's up with that?
- 14:59Speaker 2: Has he had anything to say about his son the
- 15:04Speaker 2: Cleveland Browns? Whatsoever? Any stories out there?
- 15:08Speaker 3: No?
- 15:09Speaker 1: Nothing.
- 15:11Speaker 2: That was such a ridiculous take at the time, and
- 15:13Speaker 2: it looks so much more stupid now, this idea that
- 15:17Speaker 2: it was just gonna be Dion Sanders meddling with his son.
- 15:22Speaker 2: The Cleveland Browns. And that's why these teams were smart
- 15:25Speaker 2: to just stay away from Shador. You just don't want
- 15:28Speaker 2: to deal with Dion Sanders. If any team made a
- 15:31Speaker 2: decision based on that, they have no balls, I don't
- 15:34Speaker 2: know any other way to say it. I mean, you
- 15:37Speaker 2: have no spine whatsoever. You're like, Oh, Dion Sanders might
- 15:42Speaker 2: weigh in and share an opinion or two, and then
- 15:45Speaker 2: the heat is really gonna be turned up.
- 15:47Speaker 1: Oh my gosh.
- 15:49Speaker 2: If anyone thought like that, they are pathetic as an
- 15:53Speaker 2: NFL organization.
- 15:54Speaker 1: This is the NFL.
- 15:57Speaker 2: Controversy is all over the place, Negativity is all over
- 16:01Speaker 2: the place, opinions are everywhere you turn. You should be
- 16:05Speaker 2: playing this guy. You should be running less of this
- 16:07Speaker 2: and more of that.
- 16:08Speaker 1: That's how it goes. That comes with the territory. You
- 16:12Speaker 1: can't make.
- 16:13Speaker 2: A decision based on something like that. And it never
- 16:17Speaker 2: even came to be this thought that, oh, Dion is
- 16:21Speaker 2: just gonna be a maniac with all these opinions that
- 16:24Speaker 2: he's going to be sharing. I haven't heard one. I
- 16:29Speaker 2: haven't seen an article, nothing, nothing. Dion shockingly focused on
- 16:35Speaker 2: his job in Colorado. I just don't I never understood
- 16:40Speaker 2: that take at the time, then I understand it even
- 16:42Speaker 2: less now.
- 16:44Speaker 1: But that's the thing. I'll say real fast and I'll
- 16:45Speaker 1: get to the militia. This is the other thing.
- 16:50Speaker 2: A lot of people are saying a lot of stupid
- 16:54Speaker 2: things because they simply don't like Shaduur Sanders.
- 16:58Speaker 1: Now here's the thing. You don't have to like him.
- 17:02Speaker 1: I mean, if he rubs you the wrong way.
- 17:04Speaker 2: Okay, he dances, he does the wristwatch thing, whatever, you
- 17:08Speaker 2: think that he's full of himself, a little too flashy
- 17:11Speaker 2: for your taste.
- 17:12Speaker 1: Okay, none of that stuff bothers me.
- 17:15Speaker 2: But if it rubs you the wrong way you don't
- 17:17Speaker 2: like him, fine, you don't have to like the guy.
- 17:21Speaker 2: But I would say to anyone who doesn't like him,
- 17:24Speaker 2: just be careful that you're dislike doesn't infiltrate your opinions,
- 17:31Speaker 2: because there are a lot of people that they just
- 17:33Speaker 2: flat out don't like shador.
- 17:35Speaker 1: Again, they don't have to.
- 17:37Speaker 2: But you can't sound like a moron just because you
- 17:40Speaker 2: don't like the kid, you.
- 17:42Speaker 1: Know what I mean, And there are a lot of
- 17:43Speaker 1: people who do.
- 17:44Speaker 2: There are a lot of people who sound like idiots
- 17:47Speaker 2: because they don't like the guy. And it's just something
- 17:51Speaker 2: to keep in mind. You know, there was a story
- 17:55Speaker 2: that Archie Manning, the you know, the gram father of
- 18:00Speaker 2: arch Manning. So Arch Manning's at Texas, he might be
- 18:04Speaker 2: the number one pick in next year's draft. And Archie
- 18:08Speaker 2: Manning came out and he told the Texas Monthly he said,
- 18:13Speaker 2: arch isn't going to do that in terms of, you know,
- 18:16Speaker 2: leaving for the NFL Draft next year, He's not going
- 18:19Speaker 2: to do that. He'll be at Texas. And my reaction
- 18:23Speaker 2: first was, this is on the doorstep of the college
- 18:27Speaker 2: football season. Why the hell are we talking about the
- 18:30Speaker 2: twenty twenty six NFL Draft. Shouldn't we be focused on
- 18:34Speaker 2: the twenty twenty five college football season. Texas is the
- 18:38Speaker 2: number one team and the Coaches Bowl, They've got a
- 18:40Speaker 2: legit shot to win a national championship.
- 18:43Speaker 1: And we're talking about the twenty sixth draft. Why are
- 18:45Speaker 1: we doing that?
- 18:47Speaker 2: And my next thought was, can you imagine if all
- 18:51Speaker 2: things were equal, and this is what Shaudor Sanders was
- 18:56Speaker 2: either saying, or Dion Sanders was saying, or if Shador Sanders'
- 19:02Speaker 2: grandfather might have been saying that, Oh my gosh, do
- 19:05Speaker 2: you realize what people would be saying? They'd be like,
- 19:10Speaker 2: oh my gosh, Shadore, can you focus on the upcoming season?
- 19:13Speaker 1: Why you're worried about the draft? Yahda YadA.
- 19:15Speaker 6: Oh.
- 19:15Speaker 2: There'd be so many people coming out of the woodwork
- 19:18Speaker 2: saying that with arch Manning is a shoulder shrug. It's
- 19:21Speaker 2: almost like a non story today. And that's my point.
- 19:24Speaker 2: Don't let your dislike infiltrate your opinions just because you
- 19:29Speaker 2: dislike Shador. When Shador was drafted, I got all these
- 19:34Speaker 2: tweets from all these people saying it made sense for
- 19:37Speaker 2: him to be the one hundred and forty fourth pick,
- 19:40Speaker 2: and some of the reasons they're not even close to accurate.
- 19:44Speaker 2: One guy was like, hey, he's not tough. I'm like,
- 19:46Speaker 2: not tough? Did you watch him play? This offensive line
- 19:50Speaker 2: was awful. That dude took a beating and he was
- 19:54Speaker 2: for sure tough man. He took a lot of hits
- 19:57Speaker 2: and was still upright, didn't miss games. You cannot say
- 20:01Speaker 2: Shador Sanders is not tough.
- 20:03Speaker 1: And be accurate. That's an inaccurate statement. But that's my point.
- 20:08Speaker 2: There are people that just don't like him, and it
- 20:10Speaker 2: turns into well, dish and well, he's not even tough.
- 20:13Speaker 1: He's not even accurate. I mean, he doesn't do anything well.
- 20:16Speaker 2: It's like, no, you just don't like the guy, and
- 20:18Speaker 2: you're saying a bunch of dumb things.
- 20:21Speaker 1: Just check yourself right again.
- 20:23Speaker 2: You don't have to like him, but be careful of,
- 20:26Speaker 2: you know, avoiding saying stupid things based on not liking him.
- 20:31Speaker 1: That's all I would say. And then we get out
- 20:33Speaker 1: to the phones here, let's get to the militia. Love
- 20:35Speaker 1: hearing from.
- 20:36Speaker 2: Then my guy Kyle is in Boston talking some raiders.
- 20:39Speaker 2: Let's go, oh, Kyle's not there, good to know. Or
- 20:45Speaker 2: we've got blind Scott. Let's get blind Scott in here.
- 20:47Speaker 1: What's going on? Blind Scott?
- 20:49Speaker 6: Hey, what's up? Yeah? We were talking to radio earlier.
- 20:52Speaker 7: Like I love radio so much, Like I think radio
- 20:55Speaker 7: is making a comeback now. They got to put more
- 20:57Speaker 7: radio people on radio. Though you can't put people who
- 21:00Speaker 7: haven't been on radio before on radio. It just doesn't
- 21:03Speaker 7: sound like correctly.
- 21:04Speaker 6: Like here's an opinion about radio.
- 21:06Speaker 7: I have the greatest person in radio right now, I
- 21:08Speaker 7: think is Ryan Seacrest.
- 21:10Speaker 6: I listen to his shows every day.
- 21:12Speaker 7: He has a really good cadence, He does really good bits,
- 21:15Speaker 7: and he knows how much time to have in between
- 21:17Speaker 7: each segment, and his voice just sounds like it fits
- 21:21Speaker 7: right into every segment he does. I think if anybody
- 21:25Speaker 7: listens to his show that wants to work in radio,
- 21:27Speaker 7: they can get the perfect model for how you're supposed
- 21:30Speaker 7: to talk on radio. But I think you remind of
- 21:32Speaker 7: him kind of Brian. I think you could sit in
- 21:33Speaker 7: that same format. He does all these dating bits like
- 21:37Speaker 7: in the La Market.
- 21:38Speaker 6: I think they're like, really really good. He has people
- 21:40Speaker 6: call up.
- 21:40Speaker 7: But I wanted to talk about Mike Brabel. This Mike
- 21:43Speaker 7: Brabel stuff in New England is amazing. Like you're supposed
- 21:47Speaker 7: to teach these players not to act up, not to
- 21:49Speaker 7: act like clowns. Mike Brabel's a great football, great guy,
- 21:53Speaker 7: a great football mind. He jumps into that pile with
- 21:56Speaker 7: no helmet on and gets cut in the face. I
- 21:58Speaker 7: guess you can see him after he's bleed, and these
- 22:00Speaker 7: all happys all fight up, the teams all behind them
- 22:03Speaker 7: and stuff. It's totally fake. It's all staged for the media,
- 22:07Speaker 7: you know, But I don't know. As a coach, and
- 22:09Speaker 7: you're trying to teach these players not to act out
- 22:11Speaker 7: in games, to stay discipline, I don't know as a
- 22:14Speaker 7: coach how you can just go like that on a
- 22:16Speaker 7: field and jump in the pile and then just act
- 22:18Speaker 7: like a maniac.
- 22:19Speaker 6: It's total It's total lunacy.
- 22:21Speaker 7: You know what I'm saying, Brian. It doesn't fit into
- 22:24Speaker 7: the coaching standards of today. I grew up, I played
- 22:26Speaker 7: college sports. The coaches used to act like that.
- 22:29Speaker 6: Back then.
- 22:30Speaker 7: They would do everything that you would use, every slur
- 22:32Speaker 7: in the book in the locker room. You know, nobody
- 22:34Speaker 7: really scrutinize you the coaches that much back then. That
- 22:37Speaker 7: is not a modern day coach right now. And he's
- 22:40Speaker 7: like walking a fine line of being like a social
- 22:43Speaker 7: media star in like a hardcore old school NFL coach.
- 22:47Speaker 7: But he's not Bill Belichick. Bill Belichick would have never
- 22:49Speaker 7: done that. That's what I want to point out. Bill
- 22:52Speaker 7: Belichick would have never jumped in the pile like that.
- 22:54Speaker 6: Like what is that? You know? You know?
- 22:57Speaker 2: Listen, blind Scott, I love you, and you do you
- 23:00Speaker 2: make a great argument, and I see it completely differently.
- 23:05Speaker 1: But I love your argument.
- 23:07Speaker 2: Yeah, Like that's the best funniest thing about sports radio.
- 23:10Speaker 2: I love a good argument, and you made a great argument.
- 23:13Speaker 2: I see it totally differently. But that's the thing, Like
- 23:17Speaker 2: a lot of people think that I want them to
- 23:19Speaker 2: agree with me, don't. I don't rage against someone seeing
- 23:23Speaker 2: it differently. I rage against a bad argument. It might
- 23:27Speaker 2: be an argument on my side, you know, like we
- 23:30Speaker 2: both think I don't know. Let's say that we both
- 23:33Speaker 2: think the Chiefs are gonna win the Super Bowl this season.
- 23:35Speaker 2: I don't know, And your reasoning is, oh, yeah, because
- 23:39Speaker 2: I don't know, just something stupid, like you know, they're
- 23:43Speaker 2: they're gonna throw you know, Mahomes is gonna throw twenty
- 23:46Speaker 2: five touchdowns on deep balls this season.
- 23:48Speaker 1: That's It's like, that's.
- 23:49Speaker 2: A horrible argument, even though we both think that the
- 23:53Speaker 2: Chiefs are gonna win the super Bowl. I completely disagree
- 23:55Speaker 2: with your reasoning. So it's all about the argument. To me,
- 23:58Speaker 2: it's not about which side you're on. But listen, blind
- 24:01Speaker 2: Scott made a great argument. I'll say real fast why
- 24:04Speaker 2: I don't agree with it. The reason I do not
- 24:06Speaker 2: agree with it is that you're trying to establish a culture,
- 24:12Speaker 2: and you're trying. What Rabel's going for is a tough
- 24:15Speaker 2: a culture of toughness, and I think that serves an
- 24:18Speaker 2: NFL team very very well. I mean this idea that
- 24:23Speaker 2: what uh, that was just a social media thing.
- 24:26Speaker 1: It's just for the media. That's that's not true.
- 24:28Speaker 2: You wouldn't have players come right out in full support
- 24:32Speaker 2: of this.
- 24:33Speaker 1: This is your quarterback, Drake May.
- 24:34Speaker 2: Here's what he said about Vrabel getting into a skirmish
- 24:37Speaker 2: the other day at practice.
- 24:39Speaker 4: That's what we're trying to build, I think. And it
- 24:40Speaker 4: starts with the coach. Starts with the head coach. The intensity,
- 24:42Speaker 4: bringing it every day, you know, taking no crap and
- 24:44Speaker 4: you know when we're out there on the field. But
- 24:46Speaker 4: also it comes to a time where our guys offensively
- 24:49Speaker 4: and get over there and get some tussles and kind
- 24:51Speaker 4: of have some penalties and extra after the whistle, you
- 24:54Speaker 4: can get us some trouble. But for mentality, I like it.
- 24:56Speaker 4: I think that's what you want. I mean, I almost
- 24:58Speaker 4: got in there, but I think maybe no, maybe.
- 25:00Speaker 1: So I'm here to tell you that is not fake whatsoever.
- 25:05Speaker 2: Rabel knows what he's doing getting in there and you know,
- 25:08Speaker 2: showing that type of toughness or at least willingness to
- 25:12Speaker 2: put your nose in there is Players love that stuff.
- 25:16Speaker 2: It's not like they all rolled their eyes in like oh,
- 25:18Speaker 2: that was clearly for the media. That was just for
- 25:20Speaker 2: social media clicks. That wasn't their reaction at all. This
- 25:23Speaker 2: was Mario Davis, the wide receiver. This is more funny
- 25:26Speaker 2: than anything I say.
- 25:29Speaker 1: You should have seen the other guy. I loved it,
- 25:33Speaker 1: But to me, I get the counter argument.
- 25:36Speaker 2: I do, and a guy that I really respect who
- 25:39Speaker 2: had a lot of success in the NFL, Tony Dungeee,
- 25:43Speaker 2: Tony Dungee would agree with what blind Scott said there
- 25:46Speaker 2: completely and Tony Dungee his approach was exactly what blind
- 25:51Speaker 2: Scott talked about in Colts training camp. No fights, we're
- 25:56Speaker 2: not you know, we're not getting penalties here. We're not
- 25:58Speaker 2: doing in the regular season. We're not doing it in
- 26:01Speaker 2: training camp, we're not doing it in practice, preseason games.
- 26:04Speaker 2: There's no place for it here. And it served them well.
- 26:08Speaker 2: That was a good approach for them. I don't think
- 26:12Speaker 2: that applies to everybody. You can a lot of different
- 26:17Speaker 2: ways to approach these things. And for the Patriots who
- 26:20Speaker 2: only won four games, who've been kicked.
- 26:23Speaker 1: Around for a long time now.
- 26:25Speaker 2: It's been a long time since Brady and Belichick won
- 26:28Speaker 2: the last Super Bowl, and there have been some lean
- 26:31Speaker 2: years in between that year in these last handful of years,
- 26:36Speaker 2: so you're trying to establish a new culture, toughness, you know,
- 26:39Speaker 2: all of that stuff.
- 26:41Speaker 1: And I also think this too. I think that.
- 26:44Speaker 2: It's easier, say in the in preseason or training camp,
- 26:49Speaker 2: or this was a joint practice with the Washington Commanders. Okay,
- 26:54Speaker 2: I think it's easier if you step over the line. Right,
- 26:58Speaker 2: there's a skirmish there, there's a fight. You're not going
- 27:00Speaker 2: to do that in the regular season. It would be
- 27:02Speaker 2: a penalty. I think it's easier if you step over
- 27:06Speaker 2: the line in training camp to dial it back when
- 27:10Speaker 2: the real games roll around. I think it's easier to
- 27:13Speaker 2: dial it back than it is to crank it up.
- 27:17Speaker 2: I actually I would rather have my team step over
- 27:20Speaker 2: the line from time to time. Maybe there's a fight
- 27:23Speaker 2: here that maybe there's a late hit, maybe there's a
- 27:25Speaker 2: coach that jumps into a dog pile, what have you.
- 27:28Speaker 2: I think it's easier to dial it back than it
- 27:30Speaker 2: is to crank it up.
- 27:32Speaker 1: I'll say it this way. My Dolphins. I love the Dolphins,
- 27:35Speaker 1: but they're too pretty.
- 27:38Speaker 2: I would love it if Mike McDaniel jumped into a
- 27:41Speaker 2: pile that's never going to happen. I would love it.
- 27:44Speaker 2: I would love it if there was a fight in practice.
- 27:46Speaker 2: And some might hear this and look at it and
- 27:48Speaker 2: be like, what are you talking about. No, for this example,
- 27:53Speaker 2: it's case by case. But for the Dolphins, the problem
- 27:56Speaker 2: with them is they're way too pretty. They're way too pretty.
- 28:01Speaker 2: They play a pretty style of football. They thrown it
- 28:03Speaker 2: all over the place. They've gotten pushed around in the
- 28:06Speaker 2: trenches for years, completely pushed around.
- 28:11Speaker 1: I would love to.
- 28:12Speaker 2: See more edge, more toughness, even a little bit of stupidity.
- 28:16Speaker 2: Like you could make an argument that it's stupid to
- 28:19Speaker 2: get into a fight or do something after the whistle.
- 28:21Speaker 2: You're just costing your team. You could say all those things.
- 28:24Speaker 2: I don't think it applies all across the board to
- 28:27Speaker 2: every single team. A team like the Dolphins who's gotten
- 28:30Speaker 2: pushed around in the trenches that plays this pretty style
- 28:34Speaker 2: of football, and if it's ninety degrees out and you're
- 28:36Speaker 2: at home, like they could look really really good. But
- 28:39Speaker 2: if it's a cold, nasty game, you're not able to
- 28:43Speaker 2: throw it around all the time. That the conditions aren't
- 28:46Speaker 2: made for it. It's like you gotta be able to
- 28:48Speaker 2: push people around you gotta be able to knock them
- 28:51Speaker 2: off the ball, run the ball down their throat, stop
- 28:54Speaker 2: the run. You gotta be tough, and the Dolphins just
- 28:57Speaker 2: aren't tough enough. I would love for them to do
- 29:01Speaker 2: something like that and to show more edge. So I
- 29:05Speaker 2: totally disagree with blind Scott, and he gave a great argument.
- 29:09Speaker 2: There are a lot of people that will agree with
- 29:10Speaker 2: everything that he said. Tony Dungee would be one of
- 29:13Speaker 2: those people, and he had a lot of success. I
- 29:16Speaker 2: really respect him. Tony Dungee's one of the greats. But
- 29:20Speaker 2: I don't think that everybody has to approach it the
- 29:22Speaker 2: same way. You don't have to be like, Okay, it
- 29:24Speaker 2: worked for Tony Dungee, I'm gonna do the same thing.
- 29:27Speaker 2: Or it worked for Belichick, he's not jumping into the
- 29:30Speaker 2: pile up. That doesn't mean Mike Vrabel doesn't need to
- 29:33Speaker 2: do that. I think that was one of the things
- 29:35Speaker 2: where it seemed like Gerard Mayo might have been on
- 29:38Speaker 2: the right track because he wasn't trying to be Belichick.
- 29:42Speaker 2: It didn't work out, But how many times have we
- 29:45Speaker 2: seen that we saw who was the Lions head coach
- 29:49Speaker 2: that was that Matt Patricia was a former defensive coordinator
- 29:52Speaker 2: and then what was he like the offensive flag caller.
- 29:57Speaker 1: For a little bit with the Patriots. I couldn't believe that.
- 30:00Speaker 3: You know.
- 30:00Speaker 2: One of my buddies said, I'm a Patriots fan. I'm sorry,
- 30:05Speaker 2: but I have to just side note. A couple of
- 30:08Speaker 2: years ago, I'm like, hey, who's gonna be your offensive coordinator?
- 30:11Speaker 2: And he said to me, I think it's gonna be
- 30:12Speaker 2: Matt Patricia.
- 30:13Speaker 1: Actual.
- 30:14Speaker 2: I was like, what what the defensive coordinator's calling?
- 30:17Speaker 1: You can't be serious, And sure enough it was.
- 30:21Speaker 2: But anyway, Matt Patricia when he was with the Lions,
- 30:24Speaker 2: he tried to be Belichick. He tried to check all
- 30:27Speaker 2: of his players, be this hard ass. He didn't have
- 30:30Speaker 2: the credentials. No one took him seriously. So I think
- 30:36Speaker 2: you can run into a lot of problems trying to
- 30:38Speaker 2: be just like Belichick. So I don't buy something, oh,
- 30:42Speaker 2: this is different than what Belichick would do. In some
- 30:45Speaker 2: ways good because you're not him. Mike Vrabel is not Belichick.
- 30:51Speaker 2: And even though Belichick is not jumping into a pile up,
- 30:54Speaker 2: that's fine if Mike Vrabel wants to.
- 30:58Speaker 1: I think it works. I think it's This team gained.
- 31:01Speaker 2: More respect for him for doing that than lost respect
- 31:04Speaker 2: for him doing that. And here's the thing, man, You
- 31:08Speaker 2: get these training camp fights, these joint joint practice skirmishes,
- 31:13Speaker 2: all this stuff. When do you really see that carry
- 31:17Speaker 2: over to the regular season.
- 31:19Speaker 1: I mean outside of the.
- 31:20Speaker 2: Raiders back in the day when they are literally getting
- 31:22Speaker 2: the fights all the time. But do you see this
- 31:25Speaker 2: commonly in this day and age. We're not talking way
- 31:28Speaker 2: back in the day when the rules are different, the
- 31:31Speaker 2: way the game is officiating is officiated is different.
- 31:34Speaker 1: We're talking now.
- 31:36Speaker 2: When do you see a team that gets into a
- 31:39Speaker 2: training camp fight, joint practice FI When do you see
- 31:43Speaker 2: that just be a common theme and plague them all
- 31:47Speaker 2: season long?
- 31:49Speaker 1: You don't. You don't see that.
- 31:52Speaker 2: So I don't look at that as, oh, this is
- 31:54Speaker 2: ridiculous as a silly approach by Verbel. I personally loved it,
- 31:59Speaker 2: and I think for it that just won four games
- 32:01Speaker 2: last season to build some toughness edge.
- 32:05Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of good that comes with that.
- 32:09Speaker 2: And I just don't think the stupidity of maybe doing
- 32:12Speaker 2: something after the whistle is going to carry over to
- 32:15Speaker 2: the regular season and you're going to see the Patriots
- 32:17Speaker 2: be plagued by this, I just don't buy it. I
- 32:20Speaker 2: think it's easier to dial it back than crank it up.
- 32:24Speaker 2: I'll put it this way. Say you go to the gym,
- 32:27Speaker 2: I see like some sort of fat burner commercial on maybe.
- 32:30Speaker 2: So say you go to the gym, you typically do
- 32:33Speaker 2: a hard workout for an hour, all right? Which is easier?
- 32:38Speaker 2: Is it the next day to do a harder workout
- 32:42Speaker 2: for an hour and a half, or is it easier
- 32:46Speaker 2: to do a thirty minute workout where you go hard.
- 32:49Speaker 2: It's easier to scale back, to dial it back than
- 32:54Speaker 2: it is to crank it up. So for these teams
- 32:57Speaker 2: like the Patriots and Mike Rabel jumping into a.
- 33:00Speaker 1: A skirmish right there.
- 33:02Speaker 2: It's easier for a team that maybe goes over the
- 33:05Speaker 2: line in training camp to dial it back and not
- 33:10Speaker 2: do that in the regular season.
- 33:11Speaker 1: Then it is for a team.
- 33:13Speaker 2: That doesn't show edge, doesn't show toughness in the in
- 33:16Speaker 2: training camp, and then I just got to crank it
- 33:19Speaker 2: up come the regular season. It's tougher to do that.
- 33:22Speaker 2: So I don't have an issue with it at all.
- 33:24Speaker 2: I don't I'm actually on board with it.
- 33:27Speaker 3: I like it.
- 33:28Speaker 2: I like that Mike Vrabel jumped in there and was bloodied,
- 33:31Speaker 2: and I love that stuff. Man, I don't have an
- 33:34Speaker 2: issue with it at all. But hey, shout out to
- 33:37Speaker 2: blind Scott. I thought he made a great argument on
- 33:41Speaker 2: the complete opposite side, and.
- 33:43Speaker 1: I respect him for that. I love that. I love
- 33:45Speaker 1: a good debate.
- 33:46Speaker 2: I love someone that brings a great argument on the
- 33:49Speaker 2: complete opposite side. I embraced that completely and shout out
- 33:53Speaker 2: to him.
- 33:53Speaker 1: I thought I did a great job. I love that.

- 36:15Speaker 6: taking the championship game and the NFC conferdence.
- 36:21Speaker 1: So wait a minute, hollow In James, I don't get it.
- 36:22Speaker 2: You're calling your shot that the Vikings are going to
- 36:25Speaker 2: the Super Bowl?
- 36:25Speaker 6: Is that?
- 36:26Speaker 1: What's going on here?
- 36:28Speaker 6: I'm making a I'm making a prediction, a strong prediction.
- 36:33Speaker 6: The Vikings are really gonna look strong with jaj McCarthy
- 36:37Speaker 6: and I would call Bud Graham out on this. Bud
- 36:41Speaker 6: Grant deserves this championship for the Minnesota Vikings. He was
- 36:46Speaker 6: one of the toughest coaches, that one of the most
- 36:49Speaker 6: great cups in the Canadian Football League, but had a
- 36:53Speaker 6: hard time when he's a big game for uncertain reasons.
- 36:58Speaker 6: They know the right pushed off. I'm on a shot
- 37:05Speaker 6: the pushed off on an heir interference call of set
- 37:10Speaker 6: where they played the Miami Dolphins way back in the
- 37:15Speaker 6: day with Mandy Fernadds and I could date myself because
- 37:18Speaker 6: I'm sixty one years old and mean football ever since
- 37:21Speaker 6: I was a child.
- 37:22Speaker 1: I love that.
- 37:23Speaker 2: About you, Holler and James, that you can date yourself
- 37:25Speaker 2: as much as he won.
- 37:26Speaker 1: I love the old school football right there.
- 37:28Speaker 2: You know, my favorite Bud Grant memory was when he
- 37:32Speaker 2: went out for the coin toss. You remember this, Holler
- 37:34Speaker 2: and James. They had the freezing cold outside game and
- 37:39Speaker 2: he went out for the coin toss in a short
- 37:41Speaker 2: sleeve shirt. That was amazing by Bud Grant right there.
- 37:44Speaker 1: I love him for that.
- 37:45Speaker 6: Bud Grant was one of the toughest Canadian football coaches
- 37:49Speaker 6: you ever seed a round and he should have beat
- 37:52Speaker 6: Hans Stramp. And it was one of the first great
- 37:54Speaker 6: Super Bowls they ever played in with the Kansas City
- 37:58Speaker 6: Cheachs when they were called the Chiefs or Kansas City
- 38:02Speaker 6: and Hank Stam the Minnesota Likes and they based off
- 38:06Speaker 6: in Super Bowl What what super Bowl was that he recalled?
- 38:10Speaker 2: It was Super Bowl four And I don't agree with you.
- 38:12Speaker 2: They were talking what twenty three to seven. You know,
- 38:15Speaker 2: if memory serves the twenty three seven, that's not exactly
- 38:18Speaker 2: a close game there, hollow In James.
- 38:20Speaker 6: I know it wasn't a close game, and I know
- 38:22Speaker 6: you're gonna distribute with me, but don't you think the
- 38:26Speaker 6: Minnesota like you were upset because he got cheated out
- 38:29Speaker 6: of that game?
- 38:31Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 38:32Speaker 2: That sounds like some That sounds like some vikings bias
- 38:35Speaker 2: right there, holler In James.
- 38:36Speaker 1: I like where the Chiefs getting the calls way back?
- 38:38Speaker 1: I thought it was just like everybody.
- 38:40Speaker 2: Whinds about the Mahomes era and the calls it dates
- 38:42Speaker 2: all the way back to the Hank Stram days.
- 38:44Speaker 1: They're getting all the favorable calls.
- 38:47Speaker 6: Yeah, favor little close because there's been that way ever
- 38:50Speaker 6: since the beginning, even in nineteen ninety eight for Garry
- 38:54Speaker 6: Anderson Thomas Garry Innerson in the field, Oh yeah, nineteen
- 38:58Speaker 6: ninety eight.
- 39:00Speaker 1: Holler and James, Man, that was heartbreak city man.
- 39:04Speaker 2: I don't know, because he was perfect the whole year,
- 39:05Speaker 2: didn't miss a kick until that one terrible.
- 39:09Speaker 6: Or the biggest kicking was like, and why did random
- 39:11Speaker 6: Kreby have take a knee? And I got that jersey
- 39:14Speaker 6: and I got him eighty four Randy wash jersey that
- 39:18Speaker 6: play with the New England Patriots after he played with
- 39:22Speaker 6: the Raiders. He went to the Raiders first after the
- 39:25Speaker 6: Minnesota like. He's drafted them number one. But he went
- 39:28Speaker 6: into the Hall of Fame as a Minnesota like. And
- 39:32Speaker 6: now Jared Allen is sharing the same ring with Randy Wahson,
- 39:36Speaker 6: the same golden jacket.
- 39:38Speaker 1: That's pretty cool. No, that's cool that it came full
- 39:40Speaker 1: circle like that.
- 39:41Speaker 2: But man, you've had your heart broken many times over
- 39:44Speaker 2: the years, Holler and James, I feel for you the
- 39:46Speaker 2: Brett fav interception over the middle against the Saints. I
- 39:50Speaker 2: don't bring up bad memories, but you've had some heartbreak.
- 39:53Speaker 2: They've had some heartbreak over the years. Man, But I
- 39:55Speaker 2: always loved talking to you. Holler and thank you for
- 39:57Speaker 2: the call. Great stuff. I love that you've got passion, don't.
