any budding journalist that wants to get into business. So with that said,
2:24
you know, we have a very busy agenda tonight and we'll start right now.
2:29
So at long last, Jimmy Johnson is going into the Dallas Cowboys Ring
2:34
of Honor on December thirtieth, twenty twenty three against Bud Detroit Lyons and the
2:38
day after my birthday. With that said, Jacob Christner, what are your
2:45
thoughts about Jimmy Johnson finally getting his due with the Cowboys? Well, you
2:49
know what it is. It's two older men that had a bitter feud realizing
2:53
that they're old and this is not worth it and it's time to bury the
2:58
hatchet. It's time to go. And I'm happy for this. I love
3:00
it. It's time to get I would love to be able to see a
3:06
lot of this happen over the years with a lot of different sports. But
3:09
here's the thing. At least these ones like in their eighties, ones in
3:13
their seventies, so this is bound to happen. A lot of the other
3:15
ones are younger, so I believe truthfully, we're not going to see this
3:21
happen normal. But I'm happy for this one jab the fact that it took
3:28
this long, stupidest thing ever. You know, Jimmy Johnson was there when
3:34
they changed from Tom Landry. He led the teams with Troy Aikman and Michael
3:39
Irving and Emitt Smith to great heights. You know, he was phenomenal team
3:46
wasn't as good when they switched to Barry Switzer. You know, Jerry Jones
3:51
just had to forgive and let go of whatever emotions he had and be happy.
3:59
You know, there's no reason for stupidity like this. It took way
4:02
too long without Jimmy Johnson. They weren't the same team afterwards, which was
4:08
evident, and it's about time this has happened. Yeah, very you could
4:12
say that Barry Switzer's ring was compliments of Jimmy Johnson. Go ahead, yeah,
4:19
definitely. Really, you know, Jimmy went I think it was forty
4:24
four and thirty six as the coach, but take a look at his postseason
4:28
records seven to one. Long overdue, I agree, guys. I mean,
4:31
you know, it took too long. I've seen these situations before though.
4:35
These owners are sometimes hard heads, and we had a situation here with
4:42
one of our teams in Michigan, and I mean, this is something that
4:45
happens all over and it's unfortunate because, like you said, it's like you
4:49
don't want to say too little, too late, because it's not too little
4:51
too late. It's an honor and it's late. But we no way would
4:58
you belittle that from half. So you know, I appreciate uh Johnson's braveness
5:06
and not shouting out his mouth or anything like that. I mean, Jerry
5:10
Jones is that type of guy though, So uh now I'm happy for I'm
5:14
happy that it's coming well overdue. Yeah, now that Johnson's going in the
5:17
Ring of honor, don't be surprised that Jerry Jones bothers to make another phone
5:21
call you have any more. Hearschel Walker trades up your back at tricks.
5:26
They can do a little bit of whether one by the way, the one
5:30
infinitive forty four and thirty six is just because of one in fifteen and seven
5:33
and nine. Yeah, well two and a half Super bowls. I still
5:39
don't think Switzer deserves. But yeah, now that Jimmy and Jerry are talking,
5:44
you know, you know, I'll be talking more than just a ring
5:46
of honor, maybe like personnel moves, even though the Fox will probably look
5:49
the other way. So all right, well, let's talk about fantasy football.
5:54
I never thought I'd see the day that I'd be bring fantasy football up.
5:58
I have a good reason too, so sit tight Minnesota Vikings wide receiver
6:01
Justin Jefferson on fantasy football my health is way more important than winning your fantasy
6:08
games. It doesn't matter how many times y'all flood my direct messages taking talking
6:15
about me selling your team. I don't care. All right, well,
6:18
you know what, Justin Jefferson, I agree with you. I don't play
6:23
it anyways. All right, Jacob good Good. You know that little meme
6:29
JB when they showed the guy the comedian on the thing good remember that one.
6:34
Yep, that's what I'm gonna say. Good, Yes, that's what
6:40
the whole point. Yeah, I play fantasy and yeah I have a little
6:44
bragger because I'm winning both this year, you know, having a little fun
6:46
with it. But one of the biggest issues with fantasy football, what we
6:51
have all the time is you get these players that have a bad moment and
6:57
they get injured. Then they get threats on the on dms, and they
7:00
get threats under social media and all this stuff. They get angry from people
7:04
has spent a bund like his Oh we put one hundred dollars on this,
7:06
we put one thousand dollars on this one. That's your fault. These are
7:12
still human beings for families. You're overboard here, you're overboard, and the
7:16
biggest thing is you're putting all this money out on a twelve team league,
7:19
ten team league, which means you're maybe hoping for third place at the least
7:24
the thing to be able to get money back. This is your fault,
7:27
this is your stupidity. Leave these players alone. They're still human. And
7:31
yeah, I personally, to me, the way that these fantasy football players
7:35
go always Justin Jefferson would just finish the year out and just sit just to
7:40
irritate them. I know he won't because he's gonna they have a possibility of
7:44
playoffs. But it makes me want to see that because it drives me insane
7:46
the way these players act, the fantas players we listen. This is another
7:54
example of fans that are just dumb. Players are people, you know.
8:03
Yes, we all look up to players. Before I started doing this,
8:09
I was a fan. I was a fan first. I liked who I
8:11
liked. I dislike guys on my team. But when it comes down to
8:16
it, I play fantasy football. If I lose a fantasy football it's because
8:20
of me. It's not because of Justin Jefferson. I'm the guy that picked
8:24
him. I'm the GM of my fake team. So I said, let
8:28
me get justin Jefferson. It's not his fault if he drops the pass that
8:33
I lose, it's my fault because I thought he was better than what he
8:35
was. But guess when he's still a person and I'm not going to say
8:39
sit here a rag on him because he made a mistake. Or you know,
8:43
they have people attempt that have death threats against them that you know,
8:48
talk about their families online. Get over yourself. What kind of person has
8:54
that little of a life that because they lost in fantasy or they lost a
8:58
bet, that they're threatening a professional athlete or talking bad about their family,
9:05
or you know, people that use racist, homophobic slurs on these players.
9:11
It happened earlier in the year to his teammate to Madison. You know,
9:18
these people need to seek mental health because this is a disgusting behavior. You
9:22
know, I don't want to be friends with people like that, and I
9:26
get it sucks to lose, But don't you think it's more important that the
9:30
guy's healthy so he can continue his career. Yeah, well said Joe.
9:35
I'll tell you what. I won't even have a comment because you pretty much
9:39
took everything you fall into the GMTA tonight Joe, great mindset. So I'll
9:46
I lean in your direction, and that's all I have to say. I
9:50
don't play fantasy football. I like to just cover the sport and talk about
9:54
it, and that's it. I have no use for that other stuff.
9:58
Nothing against what people do for entertainment, but it doesn't interest me anymore,
10:01
all right, George, Well, yeah, I'm in your boat to Scott.
10:07
I mean, I've never participated in it. I understand the vast majority
10:13
of the guys that are in it, and ladies as well. They enjoy
10:16
it and have fun. But yeah, when this stuff hits home in a
10:20
real life scenario and this kind of crap going around about contacting them and threatening
10:24
them and all this other bs, that's got to stop. There's no question
10:28
about it. I mean, you know, okay, yeah, well,
10:31
look at all the guys that had Kirk Cousins. Well, wasn't his fault.
10:33
I mean he got injured and now you know, you know, he's
10:39
gone for the year. I mean, the people that had Rogers and with
10:41
the Jets or whoever. I mean, you know, these things happen.
10:45
These are real life situations, like you said, and these injuries are real
10:48
life. They're not faking it. But their life is just all not football.
10:54
They have a family, the support, They've got a family to love,
11:00
to nourish, and you know, the fans are a big part of
11:03
every athlete's repertoire, if you will, But the family and and you know,
11:09
their health is number one and number two. So I think it's I
11:13
think it's wise to try to just put the brakes on this stuff a little
11:16
bit people and try to make sure that you have a level head and not
11:20
a crazy obsession which some of them obviously have turned into fantasy football with no
11:26
I I'm sorry, can just speaking back real quick. And then you know,
11:31
people have the nerve to be upset when players don't want to interact with
11:35
fans. This is part of the reason why, because people become obsessed and
11:39
impulsive about things like this, And why would I want to now interact with
11:45
the fan I see outside because I may have to hear all, you know,
11:48
three weeks ago, I cost you a game that meant nothing, you
11:52
know, so you can't have it both ways. Yeah, those are good
11:58
points. I have to admit. I'd win two championships yea who leagues and
12:01
always had a good record. But then again, I don't want to boast
12:05
of bragga when you're in the business covering it, you'd like to think you
12:09
know a little bit more about what's going on in the average outsider, not
12:11
boasting. I actually wanted in a family league because my wife asked me to
12:15
play in it. They needed a player, so they I ended up doing
12:18
it one year, and one year I actually played in the Yahoo league where
12:22
I picked like tenth and they got the first pick in the second round and
12:24
then but I never traded players if they were no good. I just got
12:28
rid of them, like I get rid of a lot of people that get
12:31
on my nerves. Anyways, it was like, I see you later,
12:33
you get on out of here, you know that kind of stuff. I'm
12:35
gonna call you for next year's draft in scott All right now, I'd rather
12:43
you find some of these fans out there instead. Maybe they can help me
12:46
out. Now. It's okay. I appreciate you can call me anything,
12:50
but that. Okay, all right? On our third topic, which I
12:54
think is pretty cool actually, although if you're an Auburn Tigers fan, isn't
12:58
so cool. But a painfull loss by Auburn and a very expensive one,
13:03
I might add too because New Mexico State got one point eight million dollars check
13:11
from Auburn, then the delivery thirty one to ten beat down to the Tigers
13:15
who were six and five, who were just twenty six point favorites. Hats
13:20
off to Jerry Kill formerly used to coach over at University of Minnesota, and
13:24
the Aggies play in the Conference Title USA in two weeks with Liveries. So
13:30
now I found some other interesting stats on this and I thought were actually pretty
13:35
good. And one of the things I should point out about it is that
13:39
this is New Mexico State University's first win over an SEC team, seventh straight
13:46
win, and secures the first nine win season at Norton New Mexico State University
13:52
since nineteen sixty. So when you look at everything in perspective, here,
13:58
okay, New Mexico State they had to jump into Conference WHOSA because they're running
14:03
out of options to play, and I think got one point eight million dollars
14:05
of their athletic program and got to beat an SEC team. This is good
14:11
stuff. What do you think tak them? I'll tell you this. It
14:16
just shows it is a reminder of my alma mater. This is twenty years
14:22
ago played Auburn. Lee University plays Auburn. We then about five minutes left,
14:26
they are up six and then blows it. But it's but then they
14:30
played like Hawaii beat them. They lost a couple of close games with these
14:33
teams, Like with exhibitions, and all of a sudden, you never I
14:37
look at the schedules every year. Nowhere close to any of those kind of
14:39
exhibitions. Ever again, twenty years later, it's like, and that was
14:43
twenty years this is now, and it's like, you schedule these exhibitions,
14:48
you give them their money, and then now they're beating you. Now they're
14:52
beating you, and it's like the reason they're beating you is because it can
14:58
be a Division III school, can be an NAI school, could be Division
15:01
two. We talked about the Tyson bages in the NFL as a starter,
15:05
the partial and you from Shepherd who played Colorado School of Mines for his final
15:09
game and then first game he gets his Minnesota. So these are the little
15:16
things. These are real athletes now. I mean levels are everywhere now,
15:20
not just going from D two to Division one to the top, the levels
15:24
are everywhere. Most of the time. It's grades, most of the time,
15:28
it's whatever. But you can't just write off any game anymore. It's
15:33
like Florida State last week. You get I mean, they get a team,
15:37
I forget who they They're down fourteen to nothing two and it was three
15:39
and seven North Alabama and they're three and seven. So you can't write anybody
15:45
off. These are real. These athletes go everywhere now. So it's just
15:50
shows. I mean, Auburn did what Auburn basically was twenty years behind on
15:54
that little situation obviously, and and Alabama's gonna murder him. Yeah, but
16:00
I'll tell you that you're talking about Auburn against New Mexico State is what we're
16:04
talking about. And this is a monumental win for this program. Jerry Kill
16:08
is probably the most underrated coaching college football. He really really is. And
16:14
not only to click one point eight million dollars beat an SEC school for the
16:17
first time, you get a win and you look good doing it. And
16:22
he has the coolest name in college football. Yeah, the Aggies, No
16:26
Kill, Ary Kill. Okay, it's the coolest name college football. I
16:30
know we have a few Aggies out there, but we won't talk about Texas
16:33
A and m Aggies because that's for another day, another time. Jb Ellis,
16:37
we're your thoughts about n m SU beating the ty guys. Welcome to
16:44
the new state of NCAA football where the SEC has way too many teams that
16:48
they're not as good as they used to be, and you have teams that
16:56
surprise you because now there's a transfer portal, so you could go to that
16:59
other school to start. I could start at New Mexico State, play two
17:03
years and transfer to Michigan or Calabama if I'm good enough. I don't have
17:08
to start there as a freshman and work my way through that system. I
17:11
can at the playing time in New Mexico State, and now I could transfer
17:17
my junior year, my senior year, or be a grad student transfer.
17:22
So there's so many different more options for these players now where they're not locked
17:26
into that I'm stuck at Michigan, I'm stuck at whatever school, so I
17:30
can go to that smaller school. And on top of that, these teams
17:36
are getting paid to come to these these you know, institutions that are you
17:42
know, what you think of great college football, You think of Auburn,
17:47
you think of Michigan. You have these little schools or these schools that don't
17:51
have that tradition coming into beating them. It's a bad look for the game,
17:56
you know. Yeah, well, it's a good look for the game,
18:00
Not Joe. Is that year you're going to have the twelve team college
18:03
football playoff and some of these teams that you don't hear about a lot now
18:07
one or two of them could slip into that playoffs. So but you make
18:10
some other great points about it, for sure, all right, George,
18:14
Well yeah, I mean, you know, Auburn is Bowl eligible, but
18:18
yeah, they face a tough, tough task against the Alabama this week.
18:23
No, I'm happy for New Mexico State. Long time ago, we had
18:26
a team called Appalation State who everybody overlooked, and they pulled into ann Arbor
18:33
to face the Mighty Wolverines at the Big House. And we all know how
18:37
that one turned out, didn't We Nobody gave Appalation State a heck of a
18:41
chance to win that game, and lo and behold, they did. So
18:45
you're right, Scott, I mean, you know, this is a big
18:47
boost for them, a big boost for their program in Vesico State, hats
18:51
off beating Auburn. I know this isn't the best Auburn year obviously, but
18:56
it's still a big team and a big victory, and of course it's going
19:00
to propel New Mexico State into a nice ball game obviously as well. But
19:07
yeah, I mean, you know, things are are There's there's a little
19:11
bit more parody. You can see that happening now in college football, definitely
19:15
with the transfer portal and obviously things like that going on. So I congratulate
19:19
New Mexico State as well. Great great win. Well let me point this
19:23
out to you, George. Okay, you say nobody gave Appalation Chick State
19:26
a chance. I actually thought they could give Michigan a heck of a game.
19:30
And I'll tell you why. I had a prognosticator down here. You
19:33
used to give me, come to me for ideas, because he knew I've
19:36
been around the game a long time, and I knew that Appalachian State had
19:40
won the championship. I think it was they call it FCS now with Division
19:45
one or one, DOUBLEA, whatever, it's FCS. And when they did
19:48
this, and I told this guy, said, you know what, Appalachian
19:52
State, if Michigan takes them lightly, they may end up losing this thing.
19:56
And you know when I where I was watching the game, I was
19:59
covering Florida Atlantic against Middle Tennessee State, and lo and behold they did win
20:03
it. So you know, I had a real weird feeling about it.
20:07
Okay, anytime you bring in an FCS school, that's one. Okay,
20:11
that is one a championship on their level. Hey, look at James Madison,
20:15
what they're doing. You know, this team may not even get into
20:18
a bowl game because they have to wait two years. Okay, this is
20:22
the topic you should have had punded funding, Jacob. Okay about James Madison,
20:26
about the two year requirement before you can actually get in there. Hi,
20:29
Ralph Williams happy. Actually, I know about the requirement. We actually
20:32
talked about about six weeks ago. I didn't know if it would be a
20:34
double thing. We talked about. It's the idea, but Matt, Matt,
20:37
six weeks ago, probably four months. It's based off the idea.
20:41
It's only talking four months. We're talking later. Okay, they don't have
20:45
the record that they had. Okay. Liberty, Okay, you can ring
20:48
the Liberty bell in Philadelphia, but when you ring the Liberty football, they're
20:52
a pretty good program out there. They really are Madison as well, so
20:57
you know when you have that rule. But not to get off subject too
21:00
much. On this whole deal is what Mississippi New Mexico State did was great.
21:06
But again, as Joe mentioned moments ago, you've got lots of different
21:10
ways you could build programs much quicker. Dion Sanders thought he could do it
21:14
by having all these transfers, but all of a sudden he's sitting at for
21:17
it one making a ball. But that'll be for another night. So more
21:21
power to New Mexico State University. And you have a great coach there and
21:25
Jerry Kill who's outside of his epilectic seizures. This guy's won in a lot
21:30
of different places and I'm really happy for him. So all right, on
21:33
our next topic, Lebron James comes the first player in NBA history to reach
21:37
thirty nine thousand career points. To me, more power to him, and
21:41
every record he sets there on points, he's already padding on the whole thing.
21:45
So I think it's a big deal. No, I really don't,
21:48
and I'll tell you why. And he had played in a different era where
21:52
there isn't a lot more hand checking. Out't think he gets thirty nine thousand
21:56
points, so I think he could get thirty well maybe, but I'm from
22:00
as we can talk about pleasant memories the basket Bros Era, Okay, of
22:07
old time basketball when it mattered and then players played it right. Thirty nine
22:11
thousand. I don't think he sniffed that number in the old days, but
22:15
more power tol him. He's got thirty nine thousand. That's my thought one
22:18
as yours Jacob. Yeah, I mean it's gonna happen. The thing is,
22:22
he's on his twentieth season, maybe twenty one, and he's just going
22:26
to be patting the numbers now, and it's like, of course, it's
22:30
depressive. The impressive thing about it is the fact that there's more There are
22:33
certain games where he looks twenty eight years old still, which shows the million
22:37
dollars a year that he spends on his body to keep it going. And
22:41
I give it that, but it's like, at the same time, remember
22:45
there's no hand checking right now. It's not near rough of a game.
22:48
So the big the biggest thing about this is you got to remember the basketball
22:53
we grew up with. You couldn't go in that free will to be able
22:57
to get something like that, so you would have to be a better outside
23:00
shooter than he is. Would he have thirty nine? No, thirty probably,
23:06
but thirty is still amazing. There's very few to have that. That's
23:08
five people. It's like five people in the NBA's got that. So I
23:12
didn't say thirty was bad. I'm just saying thirty nine. He wouldn't have
23:15
gotten it back then. That's all no, no, no no. And
23:18
it's like and you got to remember, it's like he's got it on this
23:21
twenty seasons. But I think we get I think we get all of us
23:23
and this is all of us. We all get irritated with the lebron because
23:26
he'll just take his time off, sweet time off. And there was aras.
23:30
You have a Kareem abdul Jabbar who had sixteen years of eighty two games.
23:37
You know, like he's out of his twenty one years. He had
23:40
a ridiculous stamina. And it's like so it's like, what could you do
23:45
for your body good that you do take care of your body, But so
23:48
did a dul Jabbar And it's obviously he did yoga because he was all flexibility.
23:52
He was all skinny and he was all flexibility. And he made it,
23:56
and he did constantly playing. He didn't get hurt the same way.
24:00
So what could you do to be able to keep eighty two games going?
24:03
I'll tell that to AJ Green or is it a C. Green? Yeah?
24:08
Oh yeah, he played them all. This guy didn't have an excuse.
24:11
He just suit it up like cal Ripken all those other man. All
24:14
he did was play every game, So AC Green, there's ever a record
24:18
that that would never be poking in a it would be that one because of
24:21
lower management. All right, ja Jab's trumping at the bit to get his
24:25
hands on this one. All right, give it to me, JB.
24:27
Listen. Anyone that knows me knows I'm not a fan of Lebron, But
24:32
you know what, Listen, it's a great record. He's a winner.
24:37
He does what he needs to do to get his team to play at their
24:41
best. Do I I think when I think he would be able to play
24:47
back in the eighties, nineties and early two thousands, he would have played
24:52
differently. He'd still be great. He has all the talent. W do
24:56
you have thirty nine thousand points? Probably not, but he'd still be one
25:00
of the better players without a doubt. You know, I just think it
25:04
was a different game than compared to how he is how it is today.
25:08
He definitely would to cry the way he does now because guys like Charles Oakley,
25:14
Dennis Robbin, they would to put up with that. Someone would have,
25:17
you know, knocked him out somewhere along the lines, you know,
25:21
but that's neither hero there. And you know, but listen, great accolades
25:25
for him. He's definitely a winner. I can't say, you know,
25:29
that would at him. I can't say enough about that. As much as
25:32
I dislike his game, he's you know, I never liked Bird, but
25:37
I respected him. I never liked Jordan, but I respected him. Same
25:41
thing with Lebron. You know, nothing but respect for his game. Do
25:45
I think he cries too much? Yeah, you know, but whatever,
25:49
he wins and he makes his team better and he's still doing it at whatever
25:53
age he is right now, thirty eight, thirty nine, whatever. And
25:57
you know that's what you wanted to team. You want a guy that's gonna
26:02
make your team better till the end. And when you play that long and
26:06
you're the best in the game, you're gonna set records and you're gonna be
26:11
the best and do these things so more power to them, Okay, George,
26:17
Yeah, Lebron congratulations. I mean, you know, in any sport,
26:21
we can look back and say, ah, well, you know,
26:23
if you played in that era or of this era. I know that's something
26:26
that I don't usually do, but I see your point on that, Scott
26:32
and Crew. But the fact of the matter is he still had a brilliant
26:36
career, lots of scoring and obviously, you know, things have changed so
26:40
much in the NBA over the years as far as where the shots come from,
26:45
not where they used to come from back in the days of Will Chamberlain
26:49
and Bill Russell and Dave Bang and Rick Berry and all these other greats.
26:53
But I'll tell you what, I'll still take it. I mean, his
26:57
record is a record, and there are a lot of great players in the
27:03
NBA, and he's certainly in my top five, but you might not be.
27:07
Let's put it this way, the most friendliest basketball player to all the
27:14
fans and to all the faithful. But he certainly knows how to play the
27:19
game and has done a remarkable job. So that's off. You know,
27:25
it's a good record for him. Okay, I'll dress another topic here.
27:30
Denver Broncos safety Kareem Jackson is thirty five years of age, has been given
27:36
a four game suspension for his week eleven head on Minnesota Vikings quarterback Joshua Dobbs.
27:41
That suspension was upheld by officer Derek Brooks on Tuesday. He's obviously for
27:48
repeated violations of playing rules with the intent to protect the health and safety of
27:53
players now earlier this season, these numbers staggering too. In a separate four
27:59
game ban that was reduced to two games before fitted two hundred and seventy nine
28:03
thousand dollars. He's been fined four times for eighty nine thousand, six hundred
28:07
and seventy These four games are gonna cost him five hundred and fifty nine eight
28:11
eighty nine. When will he ever learn? Well, I'll tell you what
28:15
I say. He hadn't learned by now. He never will, and that's
28:18
all I'm going to say. I'll let you guys take this topic away,
28:21
but don't hold your breath. He's not gonna learn Jacob. This was the
28:26
this is the era of I mean, he is like the NFL version of
28:29
the fan that watches a bunch of Wtube videos of a bunch of hits from
28:34
the eighties, wishing that it was back to the good old days, and
28:40
he just watches and watches and watches, and then he does it himself.
28:44
There is no question he has an old school in him that he wants to
28:48
because if he if this doesn't stop by now, it never will. It's
28:52
his mindset that he will. You can't change his mindset. That is the
28:56
issue. He's probably your today's losing all this money. But this is this
29:00
is what happens when you hear a comment section that says, I wish it
29:06
was the good old days. You have somebody trying to make it that way.
29:08
You know of that kind of thing, you know, the the spearing,
29:11
the targeting, all that kind of stuff without any kind of provocation or
29:18
without any kind of problem. But now what do we have. We have
29:22
fines. We have fines for the Deonta foreman to find just putting his head
29:27
down and try to get extra three yards and he gets twenty one grand.
29:32
It's like they're really getting onto that type of thing. So Kareem Jackson ain't
29:36
going to learn. In fact, he's probably going to be done with the
29:37
league sooner than later. Jabie, are you kidding me? Is this football
29:48
or are we playing basket weaving? It wasn't that bad of a hit?
29:52
Can it maybe be be? Can it possibly be? Because it's a short
29:56
paytent team with bouty gate and that everybody's buy from years ago. Maybe that's
30:00
why they're they're coming after this guy so hard. You know, it wasn't
30:04
that bad of a hit. It's football, Get over it. It's one
30:11
thing. You know, there have been much worse hits. You know,
30:15
he has a track record, so that obviously puts him in the minds of
30:19
the front office in the NFL where they're going to look at everything he does.
30:26
But it really wasn't that bad of a plight. I want to know
30:30
how you're supposed to run at full speed attempt to tackle somebody that is an
30:37
amazing shape, Because every offensive player in the NFL is an amazing shape.
30:41
They're better shape than ninety nine percent of Americans. You have to tackle them.
30:47
Well, you're running, get full speed, but be careful you don't
30:48
put your shoulder ahead a certain way because you're gonna get suspend your five or
30:52
stop when the quarterback goes to slide. When you're run at full speed,
30:56
Get out of here. This is football. You could see the difference with
31:00
things that are obvious. This wasn't that bad of a head. Get over
31:06
it. We're suspended. A guy cost it a thousands of dollars for a
31:11
football play. You want to get somebody just wait, This wasn't the play
31:15
to do it. The only thing that han and was his unfortunate reputation.
31:21
And he's starting to develop a rap sheet like Condomican sue when he was with
31:25
the Lions. If there's anybody that had a rap sheet and had to go
31:27
to the principal's office, it was the dominicant sue. But you know what
31:30
jab other than that. You're right, people realize that football is a physical
31:36
score. We're not talking flag football, by the way. We're talking real
31:40
football. We're not talking fantasy football where everybody can threaten each other through a
31:45
DM. We're talking ram football, right, you know, we hit each
31:48
other. Well. Once upon a time, there was a guy named Dick
31:52
bucke is Oh. I can only imagine how many fines he would have gotten
31:55
during this time. He got a lifetime band At this point, you'd have
32:00
a lifetime ban if you played there. Yeah, I know that's what that's
32:04
my point again, you're back to the gmt A thing. Elis, you're
32:07
getting bet at this stuff dmt A. All right, George, how do
32:15
I follow that? Jacob? How do I follow these two guys? Question?
32:22
But try listen. Conrad Dobler, there's another one that got away with
32:24
a lot back of the day to the preseason. Yeah, yeah, I
32:30
know what you're saying, JB. I've noticed that too. These call,
32:34
some of these calls by these reps. I mean they are really marginal.
32:38
I mean they're protecting the quarterbacks like crazy, and of course they you know,
32:44
and and and the same in college football. Oh my god, if
32:45
it wasn't one, you got five of those, uh play under review?
32:50
Uh you know, head contact to hellegal contact with the helmet or whatever.
32:55
Hey, come on, I mean, you know, like I I get
32:59
it. I mean this this is a sport that was always banging each other
33:04
and banging helmets and and you know, I mean there's certain things obviously you
33:07
can't do, stomp on a player and all that. But I'll tell you
33:10
what, Uh yeah, it's the reputation thing. I've seen it before with
33:15
you know, guys having a reputation of Rick Mahorn or back in the day
33:19
at Dennis Rodman. And like you mentioned earlier, you know, there's so
33:23
many players that get these reputations, and I really think that this one was
33:29
a little borderline. But again, you know, you're sitting in a situation
33:32
where the NFL they're gonna come down. They're going to come down, and
33:36
they're going to come down hard, especially if you had previous falls or previous
33:39
suspensions. So I see it. I don't particularly like it because some of
33:44
the cases are a little bit extreme for me and not fair to the players.
33:49
Well, you better remember that Derek Brooks form ANFL player, right he
33:52
ended up making the call on this, So they're starting to bring more and
33:53
more into these decisions making roles, and he's the one who didn't go out
33:59
there and reduce it because of his track record. So we're talking about a
34:02
player who obviously made the call on a former a former player making a call
34:07
on a player. All right, Well, you know what, we'll tone
34:10
it down just a little bit here, and I want to know what everyone
34:15
is thankful for. I'll lead off with Jacob this. I'm thankful always for
34:23
the usual the family friends I get, but I am thankful for Sideline really
34:29
am, because we started this whole deal during COVID. We did, and
34:32
JB knows this part. I got onto their Journey with the Jays, very
34:36
one of the verys. The funny thing is the only show I ever made
34:40
was Journey the Jays, and I've been on everything else multiple times. No,
34:46
I'm proud, but no, I'm thankful for this, this opportunity because
34:52
I've gotten. I've gotten so much better and everything I've done, from acting
34:55
to a lot of my discipline that I've done everything. I couldn't be prouder
34:59
of these situations. I'm thankful for everybody here, I mean, and yeah,
35:04
Scott being honest with me at all times, JB. Giving me the
35:07
chance. I mean, Scott and George both my mentors. And I am
35:09
proud. You know, I'm proud of all this and I'm learning from the
35:13
very best, and I couldn't be more thankful for that. That's right.
35:16
We appreciate the kind of words, all right, JB. What do you
35:19
have? Obviously, family, the friendships I've gotten throughout doing this, I
35:23
mean three great people right here. The partnerships with both the South Florida Tribune,
35:30
dB TV and GBED, the Alumni media group. You know, I'm
35:37
sure forgetting people, but there's so many great partners we've gotten to work with,
35:44
you know, John, Jake Dave on Sideline Sports, who have become
35:47
like family as you guys have, you know, just getting to do what
35:53
we all love. You know, that's a pretty great, pretty great experience
35:58
when you could have fun and do what you love. Hey, George,
36:04
well, oh man, where do I start? I mean, you know,
36:09
I just scrambling for time. You have a little bit, yeah,
36:15
yeah, yeah, well, of course I go back with Scott so many
36:20
years, so forty three, forty four years. I'm just so pleased and
36:23
happy to be part of this crew right here. You guys have done a
36:27
terrific job. I know, Candy behind the scenes a great job. I
36:31
really appreciate the opportunity to be on with you all. Appreciate of course my
36:36
family and children and wife and and all my family members that have been supportive
36:40
of me during this journey. It hasn't been easy, but uh, and
36:45
you know, and I know Scott knows this, and you guys do too,
36:47
you know, the guys behind the scenes. Uh, you know,
36:51
we've had some tough issues with public relations, directors, media relations guys.
36:54
But there are a lot of good ones out there. And and I know
36:58
Scott Scott and I especially when he was in Michigan, we've dealt with a
37:01
lot of media people, media relations people, and there's a lot of them
37:07
that do deserve our thanks for credentialing and allowing us. Because we were not
37:13
the New York Times, we were not the Chicago Tribune, and you know,
37:16
we were a smaller entity, but again, working hard, and I
37:22
know Scott covered so many games and that was wonderful. And I just tell
37:27
you, it is a fun, fun business. It's the future is so
37:30
bright for Sideline and for the South Florida Tribune. It's just tremendous opportunity.
37:37
And I appreciate the first class efforts you all make and all these shows you
37:42
really do. Thank you. You know, I gotta mention Sidelines pot because
37:46
they're in this thing called the book Lessons from the Microphone. You get in
37:50
this book hat to earn your way in there. We got the people like
37:52
the jbols Is, we got the Jacob Krishner, we had the Denzil Snives,
37:59
I mean, the big three. Anyways, of course, I mentioned
38:01
John Sheer and Jake Mallifer a cup of coffee since they showed me how to
38:06
do this stream yard thing. But yeah, we go out there and haven't.
38:09
And by the way, one of the things I'm really thankful for is
38:12
my dad's still alive. I get to see him tomorrow for Thanksgiving dinner.
38:15
Albeit I think we do. There's a rib place here that's open on Thanksgiving
38:21
in these neck of the woods. And you know, I do have to
38:24
say this. Three years ago, twenty twenty November twenty twenty, my mom
38:31
died because of COPD, so it'll be three years next week that she's been
38:37
gone. And Thanksgiving is a little bit difficult for me every year since my
38:42
mom was passing. I'm just glad I was able to find a way to
38:45
hammer my way through some very cold temperatures to get there on time and go
38:49
from there. So, yeah, that's a little hard. But you know
38:52
what, let's go back to sideline for a moment. You know, I've
38:54
been with them better part of a year, a little over a year now,
38:58
JB. Something like that. You're always quick to respond to my text
39:01
messages, which come faster than I talk, Okay, and I realize I
39:06
do talk very fast, and this guy is very good about not only helping
39:09
us on social media, but returning those text messages in a very timely manner.
39:15
But I think what's enjoyable about my constant communication with you, JB.
39:20
Is we both see the same things. Obviously, we have some things in
39:22
the works for twenty twenty four which will divulge as time clothes on. But
39:28
this is just another step toward the joint operating partnership that we have that we're
39:31
looking forward to not only increasing our fan base, but continue to do what
39:36
we need to do, and that's educate, entertain and inform. So you
39:40
know, I feel dad looking forward to seeing you tomorrow, and of course
39:45
you know what I enjoy coming on the shows A JB and all you guys.
39:51
You guys are family, There's no doubt about it. I've only known
39:52
George Icorn forever, so it is what it is. So he always gets
39:58
in here full for me. Then again, he's used to it, so
40:00
what's the difference. And Jacob, I gotta tell you something, like you
40:04
Penal, you know what, if there's ever a guy to me that has
40:08
come a long way, that will go a long way. Since you adhere
40:13
to coaching. To me, you've come a long way, and I'm glad
40:15
that if I can be of any assistance to you. My goal is just
40:19
to help well, and I always appreciate because I'm learning from the best.
40:23
You know what I'm saying that it's like and JB and everybody. When I
40:28
say that, like I say, when I say things like media, I'm
40:31
not talking to us. You understand, us is a media that's honest,
40:38
that's trying to bring the reputation back proper. And I'm proud to be here.
40:44
I wouldn't go to anything else unless we I don't care how many millions
40:47
and billions of dollars the other sides have it, because I would love to
40:51
be able to give some of that money. But I want a situation where
40:57
if anybody was to take me or to be able to do that thing,
41:00
I want them to have the same idea that we're you know, of the
41:04
whether it is punditry or it is journalism or whatever, I have the same
41:08
idea of being honest and not just a hit click thing like clickbait. And
41:14
that's what I'm That's what I said. So when I think media, I'm
41:16
not talking to us we are good. We're the next step. Not that
41:21
the one thing that you have to continue to do that I've noticed that you
41:24
do do with pund It's fun and is I like the fact that you're very
41:28
different. You have a magazine style format and you're not afraid to go out
41:31
there and talk about all the tough topics. That's the one thing I've learned
41:36
from my mentors, to be different and be versatile. All right, now
41:38
that we've done all this self promoting here, I've got one or two storylines,
41:43
we're gonna have predictions about tomorrow's Thanksgiving football games. All right. Matt
41:47
mac Jones is hopeful he'll start despite the Patriots quarterback on certainty. All right,
41:52
well, you know what, I have a couple of topics. We'll
41:55
get to just many ones where they're very brief. What do you think Mac
42:00
about mac Jones? Will he be starting despite all the QB uncertainty? Jacob?
42:07
Who cares? How you really feel? Oh? You can even lead
42:16
it as a who cares if you want to. Yeah, he's some time
42:22
forget it all right? The JB ellis listen, Mac and Cheese is more
42:27
exciting than mac Jones. You know, the Patriots. They're in trouble.
42:31
They're gonna lose Belichick at the end of the year. Mac Jones is not
42:36
the guy. You might as well play somebody else and hope they lose anyway
42:39
so they can move further for a draft pick. Well you, George,
42:45
Yeah, I mean, you know, I don't. I don't know if
42:49
he's probably not one hundred percent obviously we know that, but Mac Jones is
42:53
to me, he's been He's been a frustrating person, just like the whole
42:58
team has been frustrating this past year. More I agree. I think Belichick
43:04
has to go, I mean one way or the other. Uh, there
43:07
was a great run he had, but the the game has kind of passed
43:10
him by a little bit or else. He needs just a better scenery with
43:15
a chance for a contending team, that kind of thing. But I mean,
43:22
mac Jones is Mac Jones. I mean, I hope the kid can
43:23
do some good. But it's just another another really bad season for the New
43:29
England Patriots. Well, I say, put Bailey Zampi in there. What
43:34
do you got to lose at this particular point, Yeah, you already lose
43:37
it. Anyways, give him a full game or two. I mean,
43:39
what's the worst that can happen before they get zapped? I know you're trying
43:46
to get creative with the Ryans. Okay, leave it alone. Okay,
43:50
you had your turn. I had mine. I always like to mention that
43:52
line one type of show. I say, give it to Bailey Zappy and
43:57
you might as well go out there and go ahead and go from there.
44:00
All right. Another managerial hiring that's actually worth talking about. San Diego Padres
44:07
hired Mike schult as their manager. Why Saint Louis ever got rid of him?
44:09
As anybody's guests, but he's going to the San Diego Padres as Bob
44:15
Melvin went up to the San Francisco Giants. Okay, is this another one
44:20
here? Who cares? Here, mister Bunnet, Right, Mike Shill is
44:22
a top notch manager, and I would have Hey, he would have been
44:25
a lot better than David Ross. Maybe big Cubs have one now, but
44:30
I would have taken Mark shild any day of the week. That's a you
44:34
know, San Diego is going They're gonna start winning now. He's got a
44:37
high expectation. I'm happy for them, and then I'm like, this is
44:43
the big thing is like why Saint Louis got rid of them. I mean,
44:45
I don't know why. And the thing is, Saint Louis had a
44:49
reputation for the longest time. Now they don't, you know, they just
44:52
finally missed out this year and had the bad year. It's like, this
44:54
is what happens when you overthink things just a little bit. What do you
44:59
think, Jamim on my shelt oh really quick to Jacob's point about Saint Louis.
45:04
The reason why they're doing so bad, a guy named Matt Blood who
45:07
was in the front office. You know, that whole front office went to
45:10
Baltimore and you can see the transformation of Baltimore. Yeah, and you know
45:15
that's why Baltimore is doing as well as they are at Saint Louis is on
45:19
a decline. But I think it's a great hire by San Diego. You
45:22
know, they have talent, they are a good team. They just need
45:27
the right kind of lead them and hopefully, you know, they can turn
45:30
the quarter and make that that division interesting and not just Dodgers, Dodgers and
45:34
more Dodgers. George, Yeah, I think it's a good hire too,
45:39
I really do. I mean, he had quite a nice run with the
45:42
Cardinals Manager of the Year. I think it was about four years ago,
45:46
and he definitely is a very valuable He's been a valuable bench coach. But
45:52
moving back in, I know they only gave him two years, but that's
45:55
okay. I mean, you know, he's got a lot to give to
46:00
that team, and he'll bring a lot of good things to the Padres,
46:04
who obviously suffered this past year with some bad performance of those bad games.
46:10
But yeah, I think he's a good manager, a good selection. And
46:15
I always liked him too as well when he was with the Cards. All
46:17
Right, here's a good feel good story. The Philadelphia Philly signed Aaron Nola
46:22
to a seven year deal reportedly worth one hundred and seventy two million, which
46:25
insures that will probably play his entire career with Philadelphia. We don't see that
46:30
often, but boy, it's good that we'll probably see it here. Some
46:31
thoughts, mister pundit. Every once in a blue moon, you're gonna get
46:36
these We get less and less and less of these players that are playing longer
46:38
for a team. But I mean, Cardinal's gonna lose Wayne, right,
46:43
and they just lost it, and they just lost this catcher. I apologize,
46:50
but Yati, they just lost him. So those are twenty years and
46:53
then we for one team and then see was getting less and less and less.
46:57
But then now you get Nola possibility. So everyone wants to blue moon.
47:00
Like we'll say it. With football, you don't see the Warriors anymore,
47:05
but everyone's to Boe Moon. Then you get Matt Stafford, you know.
47:08
Then you get Josh Allen who want to give it all. So I
47:13
think we should all as the pundits, we all as people, and we
47:16
all as fans should stop saying it's not like that. Maybe it's less like
47:22
it, but everyone wants in the blue moon. You're gonna get the guy
47:23
that wants to stay. I mean, let's just say another football player that's
47:28
stayed in Philadelphia for a while, Boston Scott, who does mostly utility work
47:32
and everything like that, but he's been about seven eight years, and it's
47:36
like everyone's in the boom Moon. You're gonna get these players, the guy
47:39
that's the warrior, the guy that wants to stay, the guy who's just
47:43
basically family and sinking with his head, you know, and not the money.
47:46
So there's that, and it's like, let's just as fans and pundits
47:52
or whatever, just say maybe it's not as much, but it's there,
47:55
you know what I mean. Okay, JB. Listen, most guys don't
48:00
ever want to leave a team they've come up with if the opportunity is there
48:05
to make close to or the same amount of money. Most guys want to
48:10
play in the place where they you know, came up and have friends and
48:16
you know, the know the situation. They don't have to move their family.
48:22
Nobody wants to wake up one day and say, gee, I'm going
48:23
to move to a different city because I got an extra million or two.
48:28
But if the money's that much different, they're going to do that. So
48:31
he proved his work, the Phillies rewarded him by giving him a fair deal,
48:37
and now he'll stay there, hopefully his whole career. But you know,
48:40
generally, nobody says, gee, I want to jump ship and go
48:44
to a different team, unless he the team is horrible or it's a huge
48:47
disparity of what they're going to pay you. Those are the two reasons why
48:52
people leave teams. George, Yeah, I mean it's a situation where,
49:00
you know, a lot of times you're paying the pictures, the starters and
49:05
the hitters as well too. You're paying them for past accomplishments. I know
49:08
Dave Dombrowski. I read some of the comments he made about this one.
49:13
I was resigning Noah, good organization man, good good, good guy in
49:17
the clubhouse. He's proven himself. It was he twelve to nine this year.
49:23
But I think it's a good choice. I mean, you always take
49:28
a risk obviously when you reward pictures with long term deals, but hey,
49:32
if you want to retain somebody that you feel is a value and is contributing
49:37
to your team, sometimes you have to do that. And I think that's
49:39
why Debrowski in the Phillies gave him the long term deal. I always admired
49:44
him. I thought he was a good pitcher. This year not so good.
49:46
But again, you know, he's been really good in the past.
49:50
I think it's a it's a credit to the fine shape he keeps himself in
49:55
and he's forever trying to get better himself as a pitcher. He's a good
50:00
kid. I like him, all right. One thing I'm just gonna notate
50:04
individually, and I'll have one another and then we'll talk about Thanksgiving football.
50:07
Former al MVP Tigers great Willay Hernandez passed away at sixty nine. You want
50:14
to talk about one of the greatest seasons out there for a reliever, think
50:17
about this. To try to acquire Hernandez from the Philadelphia Phillies barely two weeks
50:22
before opening day in nineteen eighty four, and the train turned out turned his
50:25
career around almost overnight. Armed with a devastating screwball, his eighty four campaign
50:30
was one of the greatest seasons ever. As I mentioned for a reliever,
50:34
he went nine to three with a one point nine two earned her own average
50:37
zero point nine five to four, whip, one hundred and twelve strikeouts,
50:40
thirty two saves, and six homers allowed across the league, leading eighty appearances
50:46
for the one oh four and fifty eight Tigers. He remains the only left
50:51
handed reliever to win the MVP and Cy Young Cy Young in the same season.
50:57
So then you talk about his dominance and eighty four extended to the playoffs,
51:01
where he talied another three saves at a one point nine three year and
51:05
run average. In Game five of the World Series at Tiger Stadium, Hernandez
51:08
talied a two and he's saved to clinch the title for Detroit. All I
51:13
can say is rest in peace, Willy. A lot of people in Motown
51:15
will never forget you. One other thing, anybody want to quick come in.
51:20
I have one more thing before we go out there, and I mean
51:22
really quick. One other thing I want to address, Jacob Well, I
51:25
just want to ancho your sentiment, Scott obviously on Willie Hernandez a valuable player.
51:30
What a horrific trade that was when Bill Lajoy and Jim Campbell pulled that
51:36
off. And Hernandez is a great guy. Much too early to lose.
51:39
I'm sixty nine years old. We've lost almost oh, we've lost so many
51:44
of the ones from sixty eight and now we're losing something the eighty four Tigers
51:46
team. But good guy and a great, great, great athlete. Thanks
51:51
for mentioning him. Well, I no problem, Jacob JB. You want
51:53
to say anything about this or not real quickly. Eighty four is when I
51:58
started watching baseball years old, absorbing it. Just what I'm saying, and
52:02
see growing up. You're just seeing from like Okay, Mickey manno passes away,
52:07
Joe Demaggio passes away, those types. You know what I'm saying,
52:10
you see that. But when you know you're getting some age on you is
52:15
when eighty four they're passing, you know, and then there then and when
52:20
you see nineteen eighty four, it means they're near seventy. So it just
52:24
comes into a thing that life goes on by passes, and this and this
52:29
air. It's too early to die at sixty nine. That's too early of
52:31
a life. But me it could be diseased, it could be anything.
52:35
But usually sixty nine is a new thirty forty, depending on the person.
52:38
But you just can't ever tell. Nice to know. Thank you very much
52:42
for the words of wisdom. I appreciate it. Okay, all right,
52:45
and I say that sarcastically this time. Listen. It's just it's sad to
52:51
see these guys unfortunately pass away. I mean, I remember the eighty fourteen
52:55
I like Jacob was a young kid back then, you know, and you're
53:00
just getting geto baseball, and you know, it was a great team.
53:05
They started out on fire. They put everybody away early. They were fun
53:09
to watch, you know, and to see somebody pass away at a young
53:15
age, it's just it's always sad to see. All right, One other
53:20
baseball note and then we'll wrap this puppy up here. New York Kank hired
53:24
Brad Austmins is their bench coach, So you know, I'm glad to see
53:29
Brad I have an opportunity to go to New York be a bench coach.
53:34
Maybe you'll have an opportunity to go to a franchise and not inherit franchises on
53:38
the town side. So all right, so let's go ahead and get some
53:44
predictions for Thanksgimming only thanks Skimming, and that's it. Okay, the early
53:49
game. I don't need scores, I just need winners. Okay, we'll
53:52
start off with Jacob Tig all the games that I'll give you. Detroit against
54:00
Green Bank Detroit, okay, Washington against Dallas, Oh, Dallas easy and
54:07
last but not least for forty nine ers in the Seahawks Niners. But in
54:12
a throw in a field goal, JB. I said, I think Detroit
54:19
wins easy, Washington Dallas. I think Dallas wins easy and last, but
54:25
not least forty nine ers against the Seahawks San Francisco. Would's easy. I
54:31
don't think they're gonna be very fun games to watch. I like all three
54:35
favorites. Okay, Well, for that matter, We'll add I'll throw one
54:38
more game on the only Black Friday contest out there, the Miami Dolphins and
54:43
the Jets. All right, go ahead, Jacob yet scat to make that
54:45
four crazy ones and that Miami's got it's Tim Boyles to Miami's gonna murder him.
54:51
Okay, all right, Joe, I'm with Jacob. I mean,
54:54
four prime time games in two days, and I don't think any of them
54:59
is gonna be much fun to watch. George, Well, I'm gonna have
55:04
to go with the Lions, with Dallas and with San Francisco, and I
55:08
will go with Miami, so well, I won't lose voice saying this.
55:15
Ditto. There, you got it, Lions, Dot Cowboys, forty nine
55:20
Ers and the Dolphins. All right, With that said, okay, I
