Recorded live from the historic River Market area in downtown Kansas City proper near the banks of the crystal blue waters of the Missouri River, we give you the Sports Baskets.

00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:31,000
Harambe used to call into our original show, Two Dip Shits and a Cheap Radio Shack Candy Recorder. Harambe stopped calling into our original show, Two Dip Shits and a Cheap Radio Shack Candy Recorder.

3
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:44,000
Why did Harambe stop calling into our original show, Two Dip Shits and a Cheap Radio Shack Candy Recorder? Harambe was senselessly murdered because some idiot could not watch her children properly while looking at her phone.

4
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:49,000
Sadly, Harambe does not listen to any show anymore. Sorry, Harambe.

5
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:57,000
The Sports Basterds. Yes. Hi everybody. Howdy, howdy, howdy.

6
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:07,000
Alright. Well, I mean, so much has happened in the NFL. I don't even know where to start. You got something you want to start with?

7
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:19,000
Yeah, yeah. Let's talk about the fact that Trevor Lawrence has become somewhat irrelevant to the fact that I didn't even know he was out and wasn't playing.

8
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,000
I didn't either. I heard nothing.

9
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:30,000
So, he's got a shoulder injury that apparently he got against Philly in that game. And he missed last week too.

10
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:36,000
Didn't know that either. Didn't know that. Mack Jones has been starting for him since he's been injured.

11
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:41,000
But, wow, that's how irrelevant Jacksonville has become in the Kansas City market.

12
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:45,000
That is, that's something else because he was a high draft picker, remember?

13
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:52,000
Yeah, yeah. And he was part of the group of the hot, young, upcoming quarterbacks that were in the Mahomes era.

14
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,000
So. Yeah, that's true.

15
00:01:55,000 --> 00:02:00,000
How the mighty have fallen. Yeah, he has fell big time.

16
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:09,000
And you know, I don't wish ill for the Jacksonville organization or for the town of Jacksonville because I think Jacksonville as a city is pretty awesome.

17
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:15,000
Okay. But I think that organization that they have now is not viable.

18
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:21,000
Just like Caroline is not viable. Dallas isn't viable. Vegas is not viable.

19
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:25,000
There's so much that needs to be done to fix that. Yeah.

20
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:32,000
That I'm not going to sit here and be a booster and support them because they're not going to get better until they make some tough choices.

21
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:37,000
That's just it. I agree.

22
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:42,000
Okay. There's a couple of things we go into that really need to be talked about.

23
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:49,000
Number one, the collapse of the Cincinnati Bengals. Yeah. Yeah. It is epic.

24
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:52,000
I mean, they should have been a Super Bowl contender. Yeah. Yeah.

25
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:57,000
I mean, they started out kind of okay, but now they're just awful. Yeah.

26
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:05,000
Joe Burrow has been saying questionable stuff. And you brought up the point the other day about you think he's positioning for a trade.

27
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,000
Yeah, I think he's getting everybody ready for an offseason trade.

28
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:14,000
Yeah. And that's why you would say stuff like, well, me and a couple other guys are playing well, but the rest of the team, no.

29
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:22,000
Does he not like Zach Taylor also? Probably not at this point.

30
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:29,000
He's probably thinking that Zach Taylor is one of the people interfering with the glorious arc of his career.

31
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:35,000
Yeah, I think you're right. And also, Burrow was the one that was mad at Mahomes for taking less money. Yeah.

32
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:40,000
Okay. Well, that right there speaks volumes. Selfish. Selfish. Yeah.

33
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:45,000
I know the first thing he did when he got his huge contract was give back to his community. Yeah.

34
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:50,000
He probably had that in the contract. You're going to give me so much to give the community. Yeah.

35
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:55,000
I have no proof of that or nothing, allegedly. This is just what I personally think might have happened.

36
00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:00,000
It's like when the players are required to pay fines, the teams can't pay it for them, but you know they do.

37
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:07,000
They do. Yeah, hell yeah. Yeah. They have someone drive over with a suitcase full of cash and say, here, that makes up for your fine.

38
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:12,000
Yeah. Yep. Here. Nothing happened, right? Yeah. Oh, nothing happened.

39
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:16,000
I mean, it's just like all the Bounty Gate stuff. And there's been many cases.

40
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:21,000
I mean, the most common one would be the Greg Williams bounty case. Yeah.

41
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:27,000
But there's been so many. I mean, even I think one Marty Schottenheimer accused of that. Yes. Yes, he was.

42
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:32,000
Yeah. Paying players to hurt other players and knock them out of the game.

43
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:37,000
The first instance I saw of that was a Packers Bears game back in the 80s.

44
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:45,000
No one paid them. They didn't. Yeah. There was a Packers player. I think his name was Gerald Williams, a defensive tackle or defensive end or something.

45
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:52,000
Sounds about right. He had a towel that he hung from his waistband and it was a hit list. It said hit list on it.

46
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:59,000
And he had the jersey numbers of some Bears players, one of which was number nine, Jim McMahon.

47
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:04,000
And during the game, McMahon threw an interception.

48
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:08,000
So at that point, McMahon became a blocker instead of a quarterback.

49
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:17,000
And Gerald Williams ran up, picked him up and slammed him down to the field on his injured shoulder. I remember that. Yeah. Yeah.

50
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:27,000
And since he had already put it on his hit list and he had said in a pregame that, you know, I want to get in his face and knock him out of the game.

51
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:35,000
It's like, OK, you pretty much made it easy for us to they suspended him. They find him. It was a big deal. Yeah, I remember.

52
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:43,000
But I think McMahon came out OK on that, didn't he? Yeah. I mean, it irritated the shoulder, but it really didn't put him out or anything.

53
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:50,000
And did anyone really think Gerald Williams, the Packers player, came up with this all on his own? Yeah.

54
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:58,000
No, this is something that the defensive coaches and coordinators were telling him and telling all the other players, knock him out, put him out of the game.

55
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:03,000
If they're on the sideline injured, they can't hurt him. See, I think psychologically, that's the worst thing you could do to a player.

56
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:08,000
What they're saying is you're not going to win if this player is in. So you need to knock him out. Yeah.

57
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:16,000
What kind of message is that sending to somebody? They may not even think it outwardly, but inside, subconsciously, they've got to be thinking. Yeah.

58
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:24,000
I'm not good enough to win fairly. Yeah. So I have to cheat. Yeah. I mean, what happened to the just just do it?

59
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:30,000
You know what? You can you can do this. You can do this. You can beat this guy. He's beatable. We looked on tape.

60
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:36,000
Here's the things that he is flawed at. So exploit him. Yeah. That's the way you should win football games.

61
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:44,000
But I don't know if there's still bounty gates going on or not in the modern game, because I mean, they really watch that closely.

62
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:53,000
They really do. Yeah. If it is, then it's something the coaches have found like one player on the team and said, we can't do this anymore.

63
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:58,000
But you can. You get in the locker room and you do you set it up. Well, yeah. OK.

64
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:03,000
So now back to Zach Taylor. There's been a lot of questionable hits and stuff under his belt.

65
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:09,000
I mean, the most famous one, the championship game. Yes. But Kerr was going to make a 60 yarder anyhow.

66
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:16,000
We know. OK. You can feel it. He's that good or a 58 yarder. All this did was ensure it was a chip shot.

67
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:25,000
But that late hit was blatant. So why do their players do that? There's been several after that.

68
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:29,000
And I don't want to look them up to run them down. But I think you remember there's been three or four.

69
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:34,000
Some of them in crucial games where they got the 15 yards and not just against the Chiefs.

70
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:40,000
No, no, no. It's against other teams. Yeah. So at the very least, this is a discipline issue.

71
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:49,000
Yeah. Yeah. That's a good way to put it. Another thing is subliminally and outwardly when you don't add to your team before the deadline.

72
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:58,000
Yes. And do nothing and you're losing. That means we don't think you guys would be capable of winning it anyhow.

73
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:03,000
Yeah. They can say, oh, we've got the right pieces. We just need it. No one's buying that. No, no.

74
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:07,000
They're just like that. We're not doing anything because you guys we might as well go for a draft pick.

75
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:12,000
Yeah. At the very least, they could have come out and said, oh, well, you know, salary cap and this.

76
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:17,000
We can't afford. But then you got to prove it because salary cap is pretty much open. Yeah.

77
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:22,000
For the most part. If I was Joe Burrow, I think you would have a hell of a case to move.

78
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:30,000
Yeah. And imagine the effect on the rest of the team if word gets out within the organization that Burrow isn't going to be here next year.

79
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:38,000
Oh, I'm sure. I'm sure that's got out. I mean, if this is in fact what's happening, your star stud quarterback is out.

80
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:45,000
And think of how many players base their contracts and who they're going to play for and how long based on there being a franchise QB.

81
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:51,000
So, you know, anybody who resigned in the last couple of years was expecting Burrow to be here.

82
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:55,000
And now if he's leaving, that's going to piss off a lot of people. Yeah.

83
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:59,000
It's like, hell, man, I would have gone to Detroit, but I thought Burrow was going to be here.

84
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:06,000
Oh, yeah. Like Devontae Adams. Oh, man. Car. Yep. He thought he was going to be playing with Derek Carr.

85
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:10,000
Yeah. He thought Derek Carr was going to be the quarterback. And then all of a sudden they sit him the rest of the year.

86
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:16,000
He's probably like, fuck. He made a stupid choice. Well, not. Yeah.

87
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:20,000
He should have stayed with the Packers and love. Yeah. Who would have really fit him well there.

88
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,000
He would be their number one receiver by far. Yes, he would by far.

89
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:29,000
And yeah, poor Devontae Adams. He gets to the Jets and the Jets are worse than the Raiders are pretty much.

90
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:33,000
Yeah. You know, because the Raiders are just inept and aren't doing things right.

91
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:43,000
The Jets are like letting some cranky 40 plus weirdo run the team from the quarterback position. Yeah.

92
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:47,000
It's yeah, there's going to be Jets and Raiders.

93
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,000
There's going to be a massive sweep three spring cleaning.

94
00:09:51,000 --> 00:10:01,000
I thought the NFL you learned this lesson. You do not give a quarterback that much authority when they hijack you to come in in the first place.

95
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:06,000
They're like, I don't care. I'm not going to come in unless this, this and this is done. You should walk. Yeah.

96
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:11,000
So we'll find our own guy. Thank you. Shows how desperate some franchises get. The Jets were. Yeah.

97
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:22,000
And now this is what they get. I mean, you know, you got people that are unhappy gremlin, this black cloud and where this dark force is hanging over them is from within.

98
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:26,000
Yeah. Someone didn't just walk over there and cast a spell.

99
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:34,000
Oh, you got a dark cloud or whatever it is all over you. Yeah. Rock pretty much starts from within in almost every single case.

100
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:40,000
And they got to look at themselves and that's the culture. And then that what the culture is, is this is what it means.

101
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:44,000
You got to start over. Pretty much. You got to get rid of everybody.

102
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:50,000
Office front office coaches, assistant coaches. The GM got rid of the coach.

103
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:58,000
Yeah. The GM is already starting the GM for the Jets has already started looking at real estate at Baltimore.

104
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:04,000
He's planning on going back to Baltimore. Yeah, I believe it. Yeah. So did he really? Is that true?

105
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:16,000
That's where he came from the Baltimore organization. And I read an article yesterday saying that he's saying things indicating that he knows he won't be here next year, which, you know, is smart. He's not.

106
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:23,000
Yeah, I mean, and he to that end, he's pretty sure he's going to get rehired by the Ravens organization.

107
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:31,000
So he's looking for houses in Baltimore. Okay. So he is he is shopping for real estate in Baltimore. That that part's a fact.

108
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:37,000
So his motivation, oh, I just want to live here. I think he's the way Baltimore has been playing.

109
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:43,000
They may have a strong case to bring him in. Yeah. Yeah. If he was good at his job, then why not bring it back?

110
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:52,000
Because, you know, he sucks as a GM, but that doesn't mean he sucks at everything. Oh, the GM. Why not think defensive coordinator? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. The GM. Yeah. Yeah.

111
00:11:52,000 --> 00:12:00,000
If he's going to be something else, then okay. So be it. But he wants to be there. So maybe that's part of the problem. He doesn't want to be there.

112
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:09,000
Years ago, I think it was in the 60s or maybe the 50s, a book came out about everyone rising to the level of their incompetence, which is so true.

113
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:14,000
Yeah. Say you're in an organization and your buddy gets promoted to supervisor and he's he's okay at that.

114
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:20,000
And that's like, okay, well, let's promote you to manager and see how you do. And he learns that he's okay.

115
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:25,000
And then they say, okay, well, let's promote you to district manager. And he sucks. He just can't do it.

116
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:31,000
Do they demote him back to manager? No, they leave him at district manager. Yeah, which is crazy.

117
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:40,000
But business after business does it. They promote you until you're in a job you really can't do. But then demoting you would be too humiliating.

118
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:45,000
Plus, it would mean the business made a mistake hiring you promoting you. That's true.

119
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:49,000
But what's humiliating is not being able to do your job correctly, constantly getting stepped on.

120
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:55,000
And that's when people start fudging reports and faking their job. And it's happening in football.

121
00:12:55,000 --> 00:13:03,000
You get people promoted to, you know, director of player personnel or general manager or offensive or whatever.

122
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:07,000
And they were good at their previous job and they're not so good at this job.

123
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:12,000
But they hang on to it too long because the person who put them in that job wants to save face.

124
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:20,000
Yeah. Current job not included in this. I want to make that clear. So I know some people there listen. I'm not talking about where I work now.

125
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:26,000
No. OK. Former employers and I don't really talk about it very much.

126
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:32,000
And even once before them, I don't talk about it very much anymore. I saw that happen in real time right in front of my eyes.

127
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:39,000
Yeah. And it's not a good look. No. People resent someone not knowing what they're doing ahead of them.

128
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:44,000
You get people defying them because they don't know what they're doing. Yeah.

129
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:48,000
You get people refusing to do things because they don't know what they're doing.

130
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,000
I've had bosses at the post office like that.

131
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:57,000
The post office is a good example of people being promoted into positions that they just can't do and then they stay there.

132
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:05,000
You have to have some sort of concrete cause to get them out of that position like they intentionally screwed up or they stole or something.

133
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:12,000
But just being bad at your job doesn't get you fired at the post office. Doesn't get you reassigned. You just stay there.

134
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:19,000
Well, yeah. And another thing is about this and then we go into different subjects. I've also seen this too.

135
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:28,000
At a certain other job, they would hire someone. They hired someone that would brutalize people.

136
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:36,000
Yes. The enforcer. Bores them, scream at them, throws stuff. I mean all this stuff, but they didn't care because why? They were making money.

137
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:43,000
And that was one of the worst things I've ever witnessed. That idiot ran off so many qualified people.

138
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:51,000
And they never did question it because they were looking at their paychecks. They were looking at their ownership or whatever.

139
00:14:51,000 --> 00:15:00,000
So it never worked stuff like this. And you know what? If they're still listening to this, because I know they listen to some of them, you know I'm fucking right.

140
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:09,000
Yeah. I used to complain about how crappy things were at the post office. And at one point my sister said, it's everywhere.

141
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:13,000
It's not just the post office. That's every big business. No, I know it is. I know it is.

142
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:21,000
And that really got me past the hump of feeling like I picked the worst place in the world to work. It's like, no, they're all kind of like this.

143
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:26,000
I'm just choosing to get really pissed off about it. Yeah, you're right.

144
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:33,000
I would have had a much happier time at the post office if I just decided to let this stuff go and not worry about it.

145
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:39,000
Yeah. Yep, yep, yep. Well, you know what? Okay, back on the NFL subject here.

146
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:45,000
Yeah, that supposedly had something to do with football. It was about coaches getting promoted to jobs they don't qualify for.

147
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:50,000
I'm trying to purposely reel us in now. We're going to go long, I think.

148
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:57,000
We always do. And I don't care if we go long. It's just like, my God, we get lost in everything. We over examine it so much.

149
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:01,000
It's entertaining, but some people might be wanting to see the NFL show.

150
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:02,000
That's true. Yeah.

151
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:11,000
So, I'm trying to just be like the other side or whatever, if you will. But then again, it's free.

152
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:12,000
This is true, yeah.

153
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,000
You get your money's worth, sometimes.

154
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,000
You don't always get your money's worth here.

155
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:21,000
Because there's this thing called time spent listening. You don't get that back.

156
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,000
Yes, the hours of your life kind of thing.

157
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:28,000
Yeah, yeah, where you could be doing something productive. We can't do anything about that, sorry.

158
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:32,000
Even just personal body grooming, that's more important.

159
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:35,000
Well, I hear that our audience is horrible at it.

160
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:39,000
Hey, get together and groom each other the way apes do. That'd be cool.

161
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,000
Pick the mites off their back.

162
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,000
Yes. I've heard it's very calming.

163
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:48,000
And right then we keep going off on other subjects, but I don't care.

164
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:49,000
Alright, football.

165
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:53,000
Okay. This is not quite, but it is a football question.

166
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:57,000
Netflix was a complete disaster.

167
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:58,000
Oh my gosh, yes.

168
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,000
Does this put the Christmas Day games in jeopardy?

169
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:05,000
Absolutely. I think the NFL needs to take immediate action on this.

170
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,000
Yeah.

171
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:22,000
If nothing else, somebody needs to spring for the money for whatever servers or extra capacity Netflix is going to need to make sure those NFL games go off without a hitch.

172
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:29,000
You see, I got a little bit different opinion on this. I think without them saying it, of course, it was a test run.

173
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:30,000
Yeah, true.

174
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,000
They're like, offer for free so we'll get everybody watching it.

175
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:37,000
That's true, that's true. That was their beta test.

176
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:44,000
And you noticed the fight was on the same day that the report was released that the Pentagon has failed their seventh audit in a row.

177
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,000
Oh no. See how good they are?

178
00:17:46,000 --> 00:18:00,000
Yeah, see that was what they were distracting us from with the fight was the fact that the Pentagon is lying so hard and so much and have for at least seven years they can't even pass a government audit.

179
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:01,000
Yeah. Yep.

180
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:04,000
But, you know, don't think about that. Just think about Mike Tyson and Jay Powell.

181
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,000
They know that everybody was focused in on that.

182
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:14,000
They have people that they examine and comb everything and whatever there's like even the slight buzz about something, they'll throw stuff out there.

183
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:15,000
Yeah.

184
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:23,000
It's just like this latest bill going through Congress. Look it up. Just Google latest bill going through Congress and see some of the money allocated to what.

185
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:24,000
Yeah.

186
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,000
And what this is, is this equivalent. Now both sides do this.

187
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,000
Absolutely. All sides.

188
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,000
All sides do this.

189
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:34,000
Okay, but this is a lame duck bill.

190
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:42,000
I'm going to try to get what I can right now through favors for people that support them, all this stuff.

191
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,000
And like I said, every side does this.

192
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:51,000
Yeah, that's pretty unfortunate tradition that the lame duck president has nothing to lose, especially when the other party won the election.

193
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:52,000
Yeah.

194
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:56,000
It's like, I'm going to do everything I want to do now and fuck the consequences.

195
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:57,000
Yeah.

196
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:03,000
So you expect a bunch of pardons to come out from the Biden president, White House right at the end.

197
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:04,000
Yeah.

198
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:09,000
Ironically, you're going to expect a bunch of pardons to come out the moment Trump gets into the White House.

199
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,000
Yes, absolutely. Yeah. Like himself.

200
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:17,000
Himself and everybody who was convicted of anything for the January 6th.

201
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,000
They're going to be completely pardoned.

202
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,000
And they'll probably be cleared too.

203
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,000
Yeah. Unless it's state charges. He can't do anything with state charges.

204
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,000
The state writer said that. He has state charges in Georgia.

205
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,000
He'll have to face them after the presidency, but right now they can't touch him.

206
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,000
Yeah.

207
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:32,000
So.

208
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:36,000
All those January 6th people are like, pack your bags, man, we'll be out.

209
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,000
Yep. Yep.

210
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:44,000
And if anyone is upset over the election, it's your fault. It's your fault.

211
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:49,000
As collectively as Americans, we have the government that we wanted and deserved and paid for.

212
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:50,000
Exactly.

213
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:56,000
The people said, I don't think things are going right like they had many times, like they did when Trump was out of office.

214
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,000
They said, we're going to try another alternative.

215
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:02,000
They tried that alternative and they decided the one before was a little bit better.

216
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:03,000
Yeah.

217
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,000
If not a lot better, I don't know. You know, that's up to the person.

218
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:11,000
So you have nobody to blame but yourself.

219
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,000
Because if you don't demand better government, you'll never get it.

220
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:15,000
Yep. Yep.

221
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:16,000
So.

222
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:20,000
It'll be interesting to see how the Democrats handled this loss because in 2016.

223
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:21,000
I know.

224
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:25,000
They started off by lying to themselves and everybody about why they lost.

225
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:26,000
Yeah.

226
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:31,000
And then they finally started admitting exactly what they did wrong and then four years later, they won.

227
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:35,000
Yep. And if anyone wonders about these polls, people lie.

228
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:41,000
Oh, I lie constantly when people are taking a poll. When it's a poll taker, I make up anything.

229
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:42,000
Oh, me too.

230
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:45,000
I don't tell the truth. I'm not going to tell something stranger what I really think.

231
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,000
I do that at work all the time.

232
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,000
So I'm going to start talking politics. I go, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

233
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:51,000
And I don't really say anything.

234
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:52,000
Yeah.

235
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:57,000
The smart ones catch it. They're like, OK, he doesn't adhere to that.

236
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:02,000
It's like the post-game press conferences. You're not going to hear anything interesting or new or real.

237
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:03,000
You're just going to get the garbage.

238
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:11,000
Yeah. This has all been pre-written, scripted, you know, very scripted, like as in, well, you got to hit these points.

239
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:14,000
Here's how you do it. Here's how you look.

240
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:19,000
We're going to change the lighting so you look, you know, you know.

241
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,000
So anyhow, all right.

242
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:28,000
Nick Sirianni, this is all over. Yeah, of the Eagles. This is all over the Internet.

243
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,000
His striking resemblance to the kid in Elf.

244
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:37,000
It's all over media.

245
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:38,000
Oh, that's funny.

246
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:43,000
Oh, yeah. And if you look back to back, you would go, that's him a little bit older.

247
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,000
Wow. Yeah.

248
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,000
That's not going to really help his credibility in the locker room, is he?

249
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:52,000
No, no. Everyone's going to look at him and look at the little kid in Elf.

250
00:21:52,000 --> 00:22:01,000
Yeah, when he's over there, like, I don't know, chastising someone for doing a stupid job or whatever or doing a serious speech,

251
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,000
they're going to look at him and he's going to change that kid from Elf.

252
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:11,000
I remember a supervisor we had for a while in Argentine that unfortunately earned the nickname SpongeBob

253
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,000
because he kind of looked like SpongeBob.

254
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:19,000
And once everybody got that, nobody paid any attention to him.

255
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:25,000
I mean, he was still the boss, but everyone just laughed and disregarded him because they're like, OK, SpongeBob.

256
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:31,000
And they eventually had to take him out of the station because nobody would take him seriously.

257
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:35,000
Yeah. It matters. It really does matter. Yeah.

258
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:40,000
That's why I worry about some of these athletes doing these commercials where they act like utter fools.

259
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,000
Yeah, because it's like clowns, morons.

260
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:46,000
It's like, OK, well, some player is going to be looking to you and thinking,

261
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,000
oh, this is the guy that was drooling on himself in that TV commercial.

262
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,000
What about Andy Reid in the Fumble Rusky?

263
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:55,000
He looked like he was having a fucking stroke, didn't he?

264
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:56,000
I know. Yeah.

265
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:01,000
Seriously, I have way less respect for Andy Reid now since he did that commercial.

266
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:02,000
Fumble Rusky do?

267
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:12,000
Yeah. If he's willing to do that on camera for money, then I've lost a lot of respect for him

268
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:16,000
because there's no amount of money in the world that would get me to go on camera and act that way.

269
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,000
You notice Patrick Mahomes wasn't the one doing it.

270
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,000
Yeah. OK.

271
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:26,000
His choice, but I've lost a significant amount of respect for Andy Reid

272
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:31,000
because now I just see him as a clown, just like Deon Sanders for jumping around and flapping his arms.

273
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,000
Yes. Same thing.

274
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:37,000
I was like, I will never take him seriously again. Never.

275
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,000
Talking to a duck. Yeah.

276
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,000
OK. Yeah, an imaginary duck.

277
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,000
Yes. It's not even Gilbert Godfrey.

278
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:45,000
A CGI duck.

279
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,000
Yeah, a CGI duck. Not even a real voice, I bet.

280
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:52,000
And then he's supposed to be Mr. Coach in Charge and you do what he says.

281
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:58,000
Dude, you were out there dry humping a duck yesterday on TV. I'm going to listen to you.

282
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,000
Is that Nick Saban that does it?

283
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:05,000
OK. Nick Saban, at least he is always like he had the role of the coach knows best.

284
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:11,000
And every time someone would go Aflac, he would go, that means money.

285
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,000
He had the more serious role.

286
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:18,000
Yes. And it was brilliant, too, because this wise old coach told you Aflac is money.

287
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,000
So you're going to run out and go, oh my God, it's money.

288
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,000
Coach Saban said so. Look at how many rings he has.

289
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:31,000
Meanwhile, Coach Prime was jumping around like he had a tick biting his scrotum.

290
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:35,000
And one of the students, I think, stole his car.

291
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,000
Yeah. I wonder if Aflac gave him money for that.

292
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:43,000
Allegedly or whatever. Yeah, Aflac is like, we're sorry about your car, Dion.

293
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:47,000
Yeah. And then he's supposed to be the Jets head coach next year.

294
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,000
I can't wait to see that, if that's true.

295
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,000
I don't. Yeah, I know.

296
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,000
If that's true, I can't wait to see.

297
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,000
That was heard of last year. Yeah.

298
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,000
Yeah. Yeah.

299
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:05,000
I can't imagine Dion Sanders in New York making it all about him, promoting himself endlessly,

300
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,000
and then half-assing it as coach.

301
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:08,000
Yeah.

302
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:16,000
Players are going to know it, and they're not going to respect him any more than they respect the guy who got fired, Salah.

303
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,000
Salah. Salah. Yeah.

304
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,000
I think it's Salah. It is Arabic.

305
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:25,000
Yeah. I think it's Arabic, so you would go Salah.

306
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:29,000
Probably everything we're hearing is the Americanized version of his name, so it doesn't matter anyway.

307
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,000
You'd probably like going, what the fuck? What do they call me?

308
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,000
Yeah. Okay.

309
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:38,000
And then now, the most serious subject going around the internet, and I hate to bring this up,

310
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,000
I mean, this is really serious, okay?

311
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,000
Mike Tyson's unusually long nipples.

312
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:45,000
Yeah. Yeah.

313
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,000
What up with that?

314
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,000
Somebody's been sucking on those babies.

315
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,000
I guess so. Did he have nipple rings in and take them out, maybe?

316
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,000
That could be. That could be.

317
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:58,000
But I don't know, more like somebody's been boobieslapping them.

318
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:03,000
It's just stretching and gravity taking its toll.

319
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,000
Tune in Tokyo on him or something?

320
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,000
We have no idea what Tyson's into in the bedroom.

321
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:10,000
And we don't want to know. It's like, hey, we're good with it, whatever.

322
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:13,000
I don't want to know what anybody else does in the bedroom except me.

323
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,000
And I don't want to imagine it either.

324
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,000
No, I don't.

325
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:21,000
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, anyhow.

326
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:26,000
Well, should we get to our, I'm sure, mostly right picks?

327
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,000
Yeah. Yeah, only 25 minutes in, and we're getting to the...

328
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:33,000
Yeah.

329
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,000
Let's see. Okay. Do you want to know how we did, first off?

330
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:37,000
Yes.

331
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,000
You missed five.

332
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:40,000
Okay.

333
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:41,000
I missed one.

334
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:42,000
Wow.

335
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:43,000
I was having a really good day.

336
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,000
You had a real good day.

337
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,000
And I was just flying by the seat of my pants on a lot of these, so don't think I'm a genius.

338
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:52,000
I was going the opposite. I was playing an upset.

339
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:58,000
It really is the upset season right now where teams are banged up and looking ahead to the next game.

340
00:26:58,000 --> 00:26:59,000
Yeah.

341
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:03,000
Yeah. I'm doing that old gag. Maybe I'll stop just to get a few right.

342
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,000
Yeah.

343
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,000
All right. First game was Washington at Philly.

344
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,000
Philly won 26-18.

345
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:15,000
I predicted 26-13. You predicted 32-24.

346
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,000
Oh, wow. Okay.

347
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:21,000
And Philly really didn't look like they were having trouble at all this game.

348
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:22,000
Not at all, no.

349
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,000
And this is a young Washington system.

350
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:31,000
Washington is developing, and that's going to happen when you have that type of a situation is.

351
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,000
You're going to have really good games and really bad games.

352
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:34,000
Yeah.

353
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:39,000
But however, last night I did see and improved CJ Stroud learning some things.

354
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:40,000
Yeah.

355
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:44,000
He's learning some things and figuring out some things in the NFL, which is very good.

356
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:45,000
That's what he needed to do.

357
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:50,000
Yeah. Yeah. He won without throwing a single touchdown pass and a pick.

358
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:53,000
Yeah. And Mixon getting it a...

359
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,000
He got it going big time.

360
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:56,000
Yeah. He got it going really big.

361
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:59,000
So it looks to me like they're heading in the right direction,

362
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:03,000
and they might be a pretty powerful force by the time they come to Arrowhead.

363
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:04,000
Yeah.

364
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,000
Late December.

365
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:07,000
I think so, yeah.

366
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,000
Yeah. Something like that. It's going to be a great matchup.

367
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:11,000
Yeah. I think Washington is on that same trajectory.

368
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:12,000
They are.

369
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,000
Yeah.

370
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:14,000
Definitely.

371
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:17,000
Jaylen Daniels looks really good. Then he looks okay.

372
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,000
I mean, that's the way it is. You get your ass kicked.

373
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:20,000
Yeah.

374
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,000
The NFL is a victim of Patrick Mahomes.

375
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,000
Yeah.

376
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:28,000
Everyone wants to compare to him coming in and just fucking going lights out.

377
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,000
That is not the normal. That's not the normal.

378
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:35,000
Most quarterbacks get their teeth kicked in for a couple of years, and then they figure it out.

379
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:36,000
Yeah.

380
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:37,000
Yeah.

381
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,000
Okay.

382
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:43,000
Next game is Las Vegas at Miami.

383
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:47,000
Miami won 34-19. It was never in doubt.

384
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:48,000
Yeah. Yeah.

385
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:53,000
I predicted 27-10. You were 24-7. So we were pretty close.

386
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,000
We had the idea.

387
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:59,000
Yeah. Tyreek Hill.

388
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:03,000
Has he slowed down?

389
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:04,000
I think so, too.

390
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,000
Yeah. He's definitely come back to the pack.

391
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:07,000
Yeah.

392
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:13,000
For receivers. When he was in his heyday, he was up there in the top five of receivers and everyone was talking about.

393
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:24,000
Now, there are so many receivers ahead of him in ability and younger that he is nowhere near the desirable commodity he once was.

394
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:25,000
Yeah.

395
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:30,000
He's still really good on that team and doing well and helping him out a lot.

396
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:34,000
But you take him to a different team, I don't think he's going to have the standard of success.

397
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,000
I think every time he moves, he's going to take a step back.

398
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:38,000
Yeah.

399
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,000
And he should just stay where he is now and finish his career.

400
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,000
They have not done any contract talks, have they?

401
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:43,000
Not that I'm aware of.

402
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:49,000
And he's on his last year. That wouldn't indicate to me that they're not really that interested in signing him.

403
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:55,000
Yeah. Because for his money, you can get two guys that will be pretty much as good as him in the combo.

404
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:58,000
Look at what the Chiefs did. They got like what? Four draft picks?

405
00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:59,000
Yeah.

406
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:04,000
And one of them were starters. I mean, that needs to go down as one of the biggest bus trades.

407
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,000
Oh yeah, one of the better trades. Yeah.

408
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,000
And Tyreek wasn't a bus by any means.

409
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:16,000
No, it's just like they could have done that trade and all the draft picks didn't work out and then it would have looked horrible.

410
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:17,000
Right, right.

411
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,000
So, anyhow.

412
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:29,000
It's funny. Vegas now is two and seven. Miami is four and six. So they're not too far off in record.

413
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:32,000
But I see Miami continuing to win and do things.

414
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:38,000
Well, but their starting quarterback was out. Now he's back at Tagovaiola.

415
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:44,000
So, all of a sudden Miami became a formidable opponent. Maybe not playoff-wise, but I mean at least.

416
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:45,000
They're in every game.

417
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:49,000
Yeah, they're in every game. And that's the difference. Vegas is just bluff.

418
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:57,000
Yeah, yeah. Just like the Jets. They need to flush and put some drain cleaner down and flush again.

419
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:01,000
Yeah, it's been speculated that Mark Davis doesn't really give a shit.

420
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:06,000
I wouldn't think he does. He's enjoying being a rich guy and that's all he cares about.

421
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,000
Yeah, he's in Vegas being a rich guy. He's happy.

422
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,000
Never had the passion for football that Al did.

423
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:16,000
No, no. Love him or hate him, Al had a passion for football.

424
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:17,000
Yes, he did.

425
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:26,000
It's funny, if Al Davis' vision for the NFL had come true, it would not be anywhere near as successful.

426
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:30,000
Because most of the successful things Al Davis fought tooth and nail.

427
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:38,000
Yeah, yeah, that's true. Including getting the AFL and the NFL together.

428
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:42,000
Wasn't he part of the Foolish Dozen?

429
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:47,000
Yeah, the original owners of the AFL franchise.

430
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:51,000
Never work. They're all foolish or stupid. They're insane.

431
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:59,000
And Al Davis hated the whole idea of easy trades and free agency and all that stuff.

432
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:07,000
He liked the idea of once you got drafted by a team, they owned your football rights until you died, basically.

433
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:15,000
Well, I might have said that a few years back, like, well, he was right, but now I won't say that because that's part of the intrigue of football.

434
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:19,000
You look through the wires, see who they picked up like a trade deadline.

435
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:25,000
Wasn't that exciting? Every day I'm sitting there scouring through them, seeing who got who, who did what.

436
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:33,000
Yeah, with this system it makes it way more difficult to have a team that is the dominant franchise for over a decade.

437
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:41,000
I mean, New England could still do it. Other teams could still do it. But it used to be that you got a good team, nobody could touch you.

438
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:47,000
Because none of your players could go anywhere and you could pay them shit if you wanted to.

439
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,000
And that's part of him being a businessman.

440
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:55,000
Yeah, that was the owner side of Al Davis coming through over the football part.

441
00:32:55,000 --> 00:33:04,000
Alright, next up we have Cleveland at New Orleans. And New Orleans woke up and beat them 35-14. We both got that right.

442
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:08,000
Tyson Hill or Tayson Hill, I think it's Tayson Hill. Tayson Hill, yeah.

443
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:16,000
Yeah, Tayson Hill had like 120 yards. And then he's supposed to be like one of those quarterback slash runner guys.

444
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:21,000
What would you call it? I forgot, the Wildcat? Yeah. Yeah. He's supposed to be like a Wildcat guy.

445
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:28,000
They used to call him slash quarterback. Slash, yeah. Cordell Stewart. They named him Slash because he was like one of the original.

446
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,000
Quarterback slash running back. Yeah.

447
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:39,000
Yeah. I don't know how that game, I mean Tayson Hill would probably be a big reason having 120 yards.

448
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:48,000
And then again, you're talking about a team that's descending and maybe New Orleans is starting to figure some stuff out.

449
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:54,000
Yeah. Yeah. I didn't figure New Orleans could just suck the whole rest of the way out. They'll win some more games.

450
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:59,000
No, I mean they're a decent team. They just needed to get their act together. And when they lost Derek Carr...

451
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:07,000
Yeah, Rattler wasn't really the answer. No, they lost the rudder to the, you know, or...

452
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:16,000
Team leader, the guy everyone looks to. Yeah. So, I mean, they were already trying to figure it out.

453
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:20,000
Then they lost him and then it just poof, they hit rock bottom. Now they're getting better.

454
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:25,000
So you'll see this. They will beat up on a Carolina or something if they get them.

455
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:35,000
That's who we play next. Well, no, I'm not. No. Trapping. We are everybody's Super Bowl. Yeah. Everybody's. Everybody's.

456
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:42,000
Is it a trap game? Who's behind them? Who's behind the Chiefs? No, Carolina. The Chiefs, Carolina.

457
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:46,000
Then what's the game after them? Who are the Chiefs? I don't know. I didn't look that far ahead.

458
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:51,000
Okay. Well, I was going by trap game like they're looking ahead too. So, anyhow.

459
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:56,000
I was thinking like, you know, they lost and they're like, okay, well we got Carolina. We should win that one.

460
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:59,000
And then they don't try as hard. Oh, that could be. That could be. Yeah. That kind of trap.

461
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:07,000
Because that is a trap game too, like that. Yeah. All right. While you're looking that up, I'll go on to the next.

462
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:15,000
Indianapolis at the New York Jets. This brought up some intriguing plot points. Yes.

463
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:25,000
Indie won 28-27. I got that correct. That was one of the ones you picked the Jets 20-17.

464
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:40,000
Something I took off of this was it seems like the Jets are looking to dump Aaron Rodgers contract.

465
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:48,000
Really? Yeah. They're that far into it to where they're like, okay, this isn't worth. Well, I mean, I think they're right.

466
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:52,000
Yeah. So, this season is done. I think they've realized that. The season's done.

467
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:55,000
The season's done. Offseason, we're going to have to fire everybody.

468
00:35:55,000 --> 00:36:00,000
And they're starting to think now that keeping Aaron Rodgers doesn't make any sense. No.

469
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:05,000
Because the only reason to have him was the final push to get you into the playoffs in the Super Bowl. Yeah.

470
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:14,000
That's out of the question. So, now they don't want to waste a bunch of salary money on Aaron Rodgers when next season isn't going to be all that much better.

471
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:19,000
Well, you might as well get the guy you think is going to be it and put him in there and just let him go.

472
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:24,000
I mean, if you see something really good there, then you can add to it the following year.

473
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:31,000
But, I mean, that's the big rage now. Yeah. You know, when Young went to Carolina and then who was the other one that did really well?

474
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:37,000
Stroud. Stroud went to the Texans. Well, a lot of people thought Young was going to be the guy.

475
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:44,000
A lot of people were like, oh, no, no, Stroud's trash. Yeah. You know, so maybe some of it's the team he went to.

476
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:52,000
But this is also part of the intrigue. Stroud is a guy that's doing well. Went to the playoffs the first year. Yeah.

477
00:36:52,000 --> 00:37:00,000
Has a great deep ball. Has a pretty good football sense. And then Young seemingly is clueless. Yeah.

478
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:05,000
Yeah, he's struggling big time. Yeah. We'll get a good look at him when.

479
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:09,000
When. Yeah, Chiefs play him.

480
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:17,000
When Jones is in his face and Carl Loftus is sneaking around the corner and Omenahew is back. Yeah.

481
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:23,000
Or you always got Nick Bolton in there and you also have Reed who can do a sneaky little. Yeah.

482
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:30,000
They've sent Reed on blitzes. They've sent McDuffie on blitzes. Yeah, Reed and McDuffie both are great on blitzes. Yeah.

483
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:38,000
But something else that's coming out about Aaron Rodgers is, you know, he's definitely lost the fan base in New York.

484
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:43,000
And now people are openly pointing out flaws in Aaron Rodgers game.

485
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:54,000
And they talk about how late in the game Aaron Rodgers won't throw the deep ball to try to win because he's trying to avoid interceptions, which look bad on the stats.

486
00:37:54,000 --> 00:38:02,000
That makes a lot of sense. Yeah. Mahomes, he was trying to get back in the game at the very end of the Bills game and he threw an interception. Yeah.

487
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:13,000
He didn't care. He didn't care. He wanted to win. He didn't want the stats. But this is becoming something that is openly discussed in Jetfan forums is how Aaron Rodgers protects his own stats. Yeah.

488
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:18,000
At the expense of losing the game. It's like, we'll lose who cares. But I don't want to throw any more picks.

489
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:28,000
And also he won't run that he thinks he's going to get bulldozed on. Yeah. Mahomes, Allen will. That's the difference there. Right there. So. Yeah.

490
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:37,000
Yeah. Aaron Rodgers just is really showing himself to be a really bad idea for anybody's team. He's selfish. He's crabby.

491
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:44,000
He gives up. He blames everything, everybody and everyone else. Why would you want that guy?

492
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:53,000
I don't even know if he'll be in the NFL next year. Yeah. Oh my God. Wouldn't that be funny if he was with the Raiders? Oh.

493
00:38:53,000 --> 00:39:06,000
And then Devontae is like, can I go back to the Raiders now? You know, Devontae might as well give up with his, with his wannabe with Derek Carr or Aaron Rodgers. Yeah.

494
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:13,000
He might as well just give up on that and go, you know what? I got my own career and I want to win a Super Bowl and it isn't with either one of them.

495
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:18,000
He ought to look at signing with the Chiefs in the offseason. Well, that was a big rumor. They couldn't afford him.

496
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:26,000
I think somebody said that the Chiefs were mentioned by him a couple of times. Yeah. And it's from someone from ESPN.

497
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:32,000
Plus the fact that the Chiefs are still paying for a lot of injured players who aren't producing and then paying for their replacements.

498
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:43,000
Yes. Yeah. That's a, that's a thing too right there. That's stuff out of your control. But also DeAndre Hopkins cost you nothing and he's at the end of his contract. Yeah.

499
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:51,000
So they could afford him. That's true. Devontae Adams, I'm sure they wanted him. But yeah, that's true. He was a trade. So his contract follows with him.

500
00:39:51,000 --> 00:40:02,000
It's not like he's a one year free agent. So he's a great player. But also the other thing that I have is whenever he doesn't like something, he wants to bolt. He doesn't try to be to me.

501
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:10,000
Well, that's true. It's he doesn't try to be a part of the solution. Two teams now going on a third is it ain't working here. So I'm out. Yeah.

502
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:23,000
So I, I view that as a flaw. And if you're going to sign him to a huge contract long term deal, that would make me think twice and maybe look for someone else. Yeah, true.

503
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:33,000
So anyhow, well, I guess we can go on. All right. Next up we have Minnesota at Tennessee. Minnesota one twenty three thirteen.

504
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:44,000
We both got that correct. Good. I really don't see much from Tennessee the rest of the way out. No, they're I'm not even going to say they're trying to get a decent draft pick or nothing like that.

505
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:52,000
I just think they have nothing to offer their team. It's just flatlined. Yeah. They traded Derek Henry before the season, right? Yes.

506
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:57,000
So it seems like they were already kind of figuring that this year wasn't going to be much for him. Yeah.

507
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:04,000
They kept the Andre Hopkins, I think just so Will Levis would have someone to throw to. Yeah. A little bit more.

508
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:12,000
And help get the fans in the in the seats. Yeah. Game day. Yeah. Then the trade deadline. They're like, yeah, let's dump his salary. Yeah, it wasn't working.

509
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:18,000
They got a great stadium and they got a great fan base. I've been I have not been in.

510
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:23,000
I've been to Nashville several times, but never when a game was taking place. Otherwise, I would have went.

511
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:30,000
They have a beautiful Nissan Stadium is beautiful. It's right up against the damn I forgot the name of the river that goes through there.

512
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:37,000
It's the Ohio, isn't it? No. No, Kentucky. No. Hang on. It's a weird name. I forgot.

513
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:44,000
It's Memphis. It starts with an M. Oh, that's right. Goes. Yeah. Memphis is farther east. Yeah, it is. Hang on. Let's find out.

514
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:51,000
It's right up against that river. OK. What is the river that goes through Nashville?

515
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:56,000
Cumberland. Cumberland doesn't start with an M, but the Cumberland River is right there.

516
00:41:56,000 --> 00:42:00,000
They do a lot of paddle boat drinking stuff on there. I mean, it's a river.

517
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:06,000
And you can see the skyline in Nashville real really easy from some of the stadium points.

518
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:12,000
It's just a really nice stadium. Is the stadium in Nashville or Memphis? No, it's in Nashville. Nashville. That's right.

519
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:18,000
OK. Memphis does not have an NFL team. No, but I think they claim Nashville is what people said. Yeah.

520
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:26,000
It's like a regional team. Yeah. So, but they're fine other than having a team is what I'm saying. Yeah.

521
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:34,000
They support them. I mean, just like their NHL team, the Predators, they don't do well a lot of the times,

522
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:41,000
but they get a lot of support from Nashville. Yeah. So they're fine. The Titans are fine.

523
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:48,000
They just need to get, find the guy. I don't know if this coach is or not, but wow.

524
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:55,000
Are you getting a tattoo? Is that what that is? Yeah. Yeah. Yes. I'm getting a arrowhead on my ass cheek.

525
00:42:55,000 --> 00:43:02,000
A little picture of Joe Burrow kissing it.

526
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:12,000
Little Joe Burrow with his little tiny fists out. I don't like this. Let me go. I'm better than my homes.

527
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:21,000
What about trophies? He got his participation trophies, I'm sure. Yeah. If I could make a cricket noise, I would.

528
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:28,000
Yeah, he got participation trophies. Yes. Little Joey Juicebox and his frosted tips.

529
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:34,000
That was the thing, when Little Joey Juicebox dyed his hair blonde with those blondes. It ruined the team.

530
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:37,000
Yeah. The team went downhill ever since. Yeah. It's his ass fault.

531
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:43,000
You want me to fucking play football with Mr. Fucking New Kids on the Block over there? Yeah.

532
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:47,000
No, I don't think so. He might have been trying to audition for the Barbie movie. I don't know.

533
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:55,000
I think he was. Yeah. I think he wanted to be Barbie. He read Justin Bieber's biography. Host, did he?

534
00:43:55,000 --> 00:44:04,000
And he decided that frosting his tips would be a great idea. I wonder if he did it to his pubes, too.

535
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:10,000
Probably. Yeah. I don't know. He might not be old enough to grow pubes.

536
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:17,000
Yeah, if he has that little peach fuzz, he probably narrowed it off.

537
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:21,000
All right, moving right along. Yeah, you know what? That just went straight down the toilet, didn't it?

538
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:31,000
It did, indeed. Green Bay at Chicago. Green Bay won 20-19. We both got that wrong. It was a blocked field goal right at the end.

539
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:38,000
Yeah, yeah. I mean, we would have gotten it right, but they did a Chiefs. And if people go, that's not legitimate, when it is.

540
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:49,000
Oh, hell yeah. Yeah. I mean, just like the Chiefs won was legitimate. And they saw a flaw, and they exploited it, and they won in the same way with Green Bay.

541
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:58,000
Yeah, to say anything like that isn't a legitimate win, it's excuses. That's loser talk. Yeah. That's loser talk.

542
00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:03,000
You don't want to admit that you got beaten by the rules, within the rules. Yeah.

543
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:13,000
That's people that their teams are losing, or the team up against lost, saying that. So, I'm sure everybody in Denver probably came up with the refs did it. Yeah, or whatever.

544
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:23,000
And I've seen that in a number of shows, where a couple of people are competing, and the winning shot is something kind of half-ass, or barely makes it, or whatever.

545
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:28,000
And they're like, oh man, you're going to beat me with that shot? That ain't right. They'll still beat you. Yeah.

546
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:36,000
And it's a TV plot gimmick that people have started to latch onto and say in real life. Yeah, yeah, you're right.

547
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:43,000
And these fans are saying that you can tell that they pay way too much attention to what the TV tells them. I agree, yes.

548
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:49,000
Because real, normal, rational people are like, yeah, it was in the rules, that's the way it goes, oh well.

549
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:55,000
But these are the people that the TV tells them, oh, you're special, you're always right, your team's the best.

550
00:45:55,000 --> 00:46:01,000
They have state farm insurance. Yeah, yeah. Because they want to bundle and save. Yeah.

551
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:07,000
And they buy the same coffee that their hero drinks. Yeah, yeah. Because they have no opinion of their own. Yeah.

552
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:13,000
Yeah, I heard that new Suck My Dick coffee is really good. Have you heard about that? Oh my gosh, yeah.

553
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:20,000
Oh, yeah. I've heard it's got a real bite to it. Oh, yeah, it does.

554
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:28,000
I like their one-strain foreskin. Yeah. Oh, that is great. A little chewy at times, but it's good. Yeah.

555
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:32,000
All right.

556
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:38,000
We just saw the straight face. Hey, if you know, you know, you listen to that segment.

557
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:44,000
Okay, next up we have the hapless Jacksonville Jaguars at the Detroit Lions.

558
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:49,000
So it was the kittens versus the lions, basically.

559
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:55,000
What was it, 52 to 7 or something? 52 to 6. Jacksonville got what, two field goals?

560
00:46:55,000 --> 00:47:02,000
I guess. Yeah, I guess that's it. Detroit is still pounding people. Yeah, they're formidable and they are a Super Bowl contender.

561
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:07,000
But it's November. It's November. Yeah. Remember that. I said it's November.

562
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:13,000
December, if you're still doing this, get back with me. Yeah. Right now, the teams that are the top teams, they're all the top teams.

563
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:19,000
No one's won it yet. No. Yep. Nobody's secured a playoff spot. Yeah.

564
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:25,000
The Chiefs are still the reigning champions because the next game has not been decided that decides the champion.

565
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:31,000
So I thought it was interesting that the second half Jacksonville was completely shut out.

566
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:41,000
Not a point. It looked to me like they gave up. Did I mean, if you didn't see the game live, just go to YouTube and look at the highlights.

567
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:46,000
I mean, they were flatline. I mean, I don't know if you can necessarily chalk this all up to lions.

568
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:51,000
Yeah, there were one or two players on Jacksonville's defense that looked like they were still trying.

569
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:57,000
But the rest of them are just like, yeah, let's just run out the season and collect our paychecks and get the hell out of here.

570
00:47:57,000 --> 00:48:00,000
They know Doug Peterson's gone. Yeah. They're just waiting for it.

571
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:06,000
There's no reason to invest on learning anything he's got to teach you because the next guy is going to come in and teach you something different.

572
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:13,000
So he's the ultimate lame duck at this point. Yeah. So that tattoo kind of hurts. Oh, man. Yeah.

573
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:19,000
Oh, man. You know what? At least narrowhead doesn't take very long. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, no, the red in it.

574
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:25,000
Oh, my God. When he puts the red in, it's going to really hurt. But Frosted Tips is what I'm worried about.

575
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:32,000
How are they going to look on my butt cheek? They'll probably just leave it skin tone. Okay. That's good. That's a good idea.

576
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:39,000
Yeah. I was going to say kudos to Detroit on the one hand for not letting up. Not being a trap game.

577
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:46,000
And yeah, I also like to not letting up. But you got to wonder, did they give away too much?

578
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:52,000
Did they show too much in this game that they really didn't need to? Campbell is relatively a newer coach. Yeah.

579
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:58,000
He might have been tempted. Do you think that Bill Belichick would have done that? No. Andy Reid wouldn't have done that. No.

580
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:04,000
The Mike Tomlin would not have done that. I think once you were up by three scores,

581
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:10,000
you start getting super conservative until you're no longer up by three scores and then you go back on the attack.

582
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:17,000
Especially with Jared Goff where you're apt to throw him four interceptions in a row. Yeah. I mean, that's the kind of guy he is.

583
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:24,000
He did that last week, didn't he? Yeah. Yeah. He threw five interceptions and they won the game. Crazy.

584
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:32,000
That's because the other side was throwing interceptions too. It was funny. That was Houston. Yeah. That was Houston they were playing.

585
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:39,000
Stroud is a little bit, he's a little bit more interception prone, but that's good. He's learning. He's growing. Yeah. So. Yeah.

586
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:49,000
Anyhow. Los Angeles Rams at New England Patriots. The Rams won 28-22, but still didn't look good doing it.

587
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:55,000
No. That team's flatlined, I think. Is that Sean McVay head coach there? Yes.

588
00:49:55,000 --> 00:50:04,000
He's got to be worried about not necessarily getting fired, but they're not going to renegotiate his contract until he turns it around.

589
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:09,000
He's not going to bring in the good free agents and the front office just isn't going to trust him as much.

590
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:23,000
True. He's got to now wonder of replacing Matthew Stafford is what he's going to be having to look at now.

591
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:33,000
I think so, yeah. It's, I mean, he has receivers. It just doesn't seem to be there and he was not that great last year either.

592
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:38,000
He seems to be on the decline. When is his contract up? Good question.

593
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:42,000
I mean, I think now is the time you have to start looking for the next guy. Yeah.

594
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:53,000
So Sean McVay and their GM have to start being scouring around looking at potential draft picks and maybe moving up in the draft to get this guy.

595
00:50:53,000 --> 00:51:01,000
You know, there are times when a team will have a situation where they just need a quarterback to come in and, you know. Kirk Cousins.

596
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:12,000
Yeah. But with the Rams, excuse me, with a number of other teams, I think also the better idea is get the quarterback you believe in.

597
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:17,000
Yeah. And then get the players that quarterback can work with. Yeah.

598
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:23,000
Instead of like, well, we've got these three receivers and this running back and that tight end. Let's find a quarterback who can work with them.

599
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:31,000
Do it the other way around. Get the quarterback first and then each season keep adding players that quarterback wants.

600
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:36,000
Yes. That is the way to do it. If this is your guy and you're convinced of it, you will do that.

601
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:47,000
Yeah. So that's the reason to dump the staffer when you can and get in the guy you want and then start cycling out the other players.

602
00:51:47,000 --> 00:52:07,000
Yeah. So I don't think Sean Mavay is even worried about his job, like you said, at all. I think what he needs to start assessing is, is the, probably the realistic view of getting rid of a Super Bowl winning, very successful quarterback.

603
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:15,000
Yeah. That is probably his best time has passed him and you don't want him, the worst thing you can do is have fruit rotting on the vine.

604
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:19,000
Yeah. As Carl Peters said.

605
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:23,000
You got to make sure the fans are okay with you getting rid of Stafford too.

606
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:27,000
Well, that's where, it's LA.

607
00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:36,000
Yeah, that's true. You're not really worried about season ticket holders. In LA, you're going to sell tickets to the same kind of group of people who are just looking for something to do.

608
00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:51,000
Yeah. If that was Indianapolis or something, maybe, but not LA. And I was talking about the Andrew Luck, Peyton Manning deal where Indy lost a lot of ticket holders because they were so furious that they let Peyton Manning go.

609
00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:52,000
Yeah. Yeah.

610
00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:57,000
That Andrew Luck looked like gold, but didn't he explode his spleen getting hit or something?

611
00:52:57,000 --> 00:53:01,000
Yeah. He had some sort of hellacious injury and then he came back and...

612
00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:03,000
Played two games, I think, in retirement.

613
00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:04,000
Yeah.

614
00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:05,000
I don't want to do it anymore.

615
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:06,000
Smart guy.

616
00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:14,000
Imagine being out there and every time some big giant man is about to clobber you, you're thinking, is this going to put me back in the hospital? Is this going to end my life?

617
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:21,000
Yeah. And with him, this is true. I mean, just his body, whatever, cannot take that kind of blows.

618
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:28,000
Yeah. And probably wasn't using all the supplements and hormones and chemicals that some of the other players use to heal.

619
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:31,000
You're probably right. He reminded me of a big old farm hand.

620
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:32,000
Yeah.

621
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:38,000
I mean, I want to know what it was that Peyton Manning was on that made his forehead swell up so giant.

622
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:45,000
I mean, you look at his college photos and look at his photos now, his forehead is about 30% bigger.

623
00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:49,000
And it's not because his hair went back, it's because his forehead is enormous.

624
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:50,000
Yeah.

625
00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:56,000
And there's one kind of steroid where that is the predominant side effect is your forehead gets huge. That's Peyton Manning.

626
00:53:56,000 --> 00:54:00,000
Yeah. We're not saying that's what happened, but...

627
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:02,000
But all the evidence is there.

628
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:03,000
Yeah, yeah. Yep.

629
00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:11,000
And you know that any team Peyton Manning was on would do whatever it takes to fake his urine test and his blood test to make sure he can continue.

630
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:17,000
And the NFL League office would be right along there with him. It's like, yeah, we're not benching this guy. He's making too much money for us.

631
00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:19,000
Yeah, that's true. Yep.

632
00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:23,000
The giant forehead man. Hmm.

633
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:26,000
All right. Next game up. Baltimore at Pittsburgh.

634
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:32,000
Those roasted nuts, man, those beans smell so good.

635
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:37,000
They do. Just dip them in a little dark chocolate and eat them right up.

636
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:39,000
Oh, I love those.

637
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:46,000
Man, I got wired so much one time on chocolate covered espresso beans. I ate like a handful. It was vibrating.

638
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:49,000
Oh, no, no. I just ate them until I shook.

639
00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:53,000
The combo of chocolate and caffeine really seems to get me.

640
00:54:53,000 --> 00:55:00,000
Oh, yeah. I couldn't write my name. I was shaking so bad. But it was fun.

641
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:05,000
Baltimore at Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh won 18 to 16.

642
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:08,000
That was a good game. Yeah, yeah.

643
00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:11,000
That game either team could have won, but Pittsburgh gutted it out.

644
00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:15,000
Pittsburgh is showing that they are formidable and they might win the division.

645
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:20,000
Yeah, yeah. They passed Baltimore with that game.

646
00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:24,000
Yeah, and Baltimore to me is still, they're missing. Struggling.

647
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:26,000
Yeah, they're struggling.

648
00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:30,000
Yeah, it was interesting. Pittsburgh won on six field goals.

649
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:34,000
18 points on six field goals. Didn't get in the end zone once.

650
00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:38,000
It's just kind of weird. If it was Pittsburgh, I would be somewhat worried about that.

651
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:46,000
Yes. Yeah, Baltimore is missing something.

652
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:51,000
And I cannot put my finger on it because these close games, they should be winning. They're not.

653
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:55,000
We kind of figured it out with Cincy that it's probably Joe Burrow making an exit.

654
00:55:55,000 --> 00:56:00,000
But with Baltimore, something is going wrong there that it's affecting the whole team.

655
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:09,000
Yeah. They're not playing that good at times. Other times they look like world beaters, but it's against certain matchups.

656
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:12,000
Other matchups were, this is the way I see it right here.

657
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:16,000
John Harbaugh is a great coach and he is also a Super Bowl winning coach.

658
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:21,000
But there's got to be a flaw in their game plan that certain teams can get by and other ones can't.

659
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:25,000
I mean, you know what I mean? Yeah, people are seeing something in that team.

660
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:29,000
They're exploiting it. Yeah.

661
00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:36,000
We'll see how their trajectory goes from here, but I see Pittsburgh on the rise and Baltimore faltering.

662
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:38,000
I do too. And drop into a wild card.

663
00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:47,000
Well, I mean, case in point, all of their playoff games, all their playoff games, they had a chance of winning and they didn't.

664
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:53,000
Yeah. Yeah. That's almost worse than being overmatched is you had a chance and you blew it.

665
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:58,000
Well, yeah. What is it with the team that can't get over the hump and looks like they either receded some?

666
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:05,000
Yeah. Then you start getting, they question your dedication, your heart, your motivation, whatever term you want to use.

667
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:12,000
Yeah. Yeah, that's true. Well, yeah, I don't know what else to say about that is.

668
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:17,000
Yeah, Pittsburgh's ascending and maybe Baltimore is descending a bit.

669
00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:25,000
Yeah. I'm trying to figure out what I wrote here on this next game. Seattle at San Francisco is our next game.

670
00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:29,000
Seattle in 2017. I think you pick Seattle. I pick SF.

671
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:33,000
Yeah. And you also picked Baltimore in the previous game.

672
00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:35,000
Oh, that's right. Yeah.

673
00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:43,000
But I wrote down double something for Seattle. I can't read what I wrote.

674
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:47,000
So I'm trying to think. What could it be? Double what?

675
00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:49,000
Double TO, double TD.

676
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:51,000
Oh, it was in overtime.

677
00:57:51,000 --> 00:58:02,000
Oh, okay. Who knows? I wrote down something about it made it special for Seattle in some way, but...

678
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:06,000
Oh. I can't read my own damn handwriting. I don't remember what I was trying to say.

679
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:10,000
And I have no idea. I know it went to overtime. That's all I know.

680
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:15,000
Yeah. I mean, I saw the excerpts of it. Brock Purdy is coming back down to earth rather quickly.

681
00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:23,000
Yeah. I mean, this is another one of those classic, I think Kansas City broke this team.

682
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:30,000
This would be dynasty before they became one. And this last loss, I think you could see it in their faces.

683
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:34,000
They're like, we're never going to get by this. I think it's kind of in their head now.

684
00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:41,000
McCaffrey is showing signs of being McCaffrey. He's fantastic when he's on the field, but so many times he's not.

685
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:43,000
Yeah.

686
00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:50,000
Brock Purdy's a good quarterback, but he's probably not that guy that can take the game on his shoulder and win it for you.

687
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:54,000
Yeah. He doesn't have that pinpoint accuracy long.

688
00:58:54,000 --> 00:59:02,000
And they've been playing teams that they need to beat and they've been losing to them in the division

689
00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:10,000
or the teams that they're going to meet in the playoffs or the Chiefs themselves.

690
00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:22,000
Yeah. So I mean, both teams are just waddling right now in mediocrity. So what do you say?

691
00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:28,000
Geno Smith, Geno Smith, and at times he's Geno Smith and at other times he's not.

692
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:35,000
It's weird. Yeah. It's Jekyll and Hyde kind of thing for Geno Smith.

693
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:41,000
Well, yeah, I don't know what else to say about that. I mean, that's pretty much, yeah.

694
00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:47,000
Okay. Here's the thing that I was trying to...

695
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:49,000
Oh, is the double timeout.

696
00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:51,000
Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah.

697
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:55,000
Seattle called a timeout and then they went to timeout and they came back.

698
00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:59,000
And then Seattle tried to call timeout again, which you can't do.

699
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:01,000
Two timeouts in a row is a delay of game.

700
01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:08,000
But instead the officials huddled and then pretended as if Seattle hadn't tried to call a second timeout and let the game go.

701
01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:09,000
Yeah. Wasn't that bullshit?

702
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:16,000
It was absolute bullshit. And a former referee, a former NFL official would say, yeah, this is just totally wrong. It's total bullshit.

703
01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:18,000
It's the absolute wrong thing to do.

704
01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:22,000
They all knew what they were doing, obviously, by the way, they looked and how they did it.

705
01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:27,000
Now, I really, really hope that people won't look at the officials and say they did it.

706
01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:29,000
No, they were following orders.

707
01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:37,000
Somebody was telling the officials when they got huddled up and somebody told them, don't call this penalty, let it go.

708
01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:42,000
Yeah. I want to know who's making these choices that are deciding some of these games.

709
01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:46,000
Well, we know that everything is influenced heavily by betting.

710
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:50,000
Yeah. So you can make your own. You can make your own judgment.

711
01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:56,000
Yeah. And just like professional wrestling, I think certain teams are picked to be on the rise and be the good guys.

712
01:00:56,000 --> 01:01:01,000
And certain teams are picked to be on the decline and the villains.

713
01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:08,000
Right now, I think Dallas is one of the villains. I think San Francisco is one of the villains.

714
01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:14,000
There are some other teams that just seem to be getting crap calls that really screw up their game.

715
01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:23,000
So people dog. They dog Brady. They dog Mahomes. They dog other head coaches. They chum up with the referees.

716
01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:25,000
How is that a bad idea?

717
01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:31,000
Yeah, apparently it's legal. Apparently it's within the rules. And if it helps, then why isn't everyone doing it?

718
01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:33,000
I guarantee you it helps. Yeah.

719
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:38,000
I guarantee you if one guy's a prick to you and the other guy's really nice and signs you're a jersey for your kid,

720
01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:42,000
you're naturally, whether you realize it or not, you're going to favor that guy.

721
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:44,000
And it's like, man, he's so cool, man. That was great.

722
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:51,000
And there was a brief flare up of objection to the fact that the officials are buddying up to the players.

723
01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:56,000
And then it just died right out because people realize it doesn't really matter.

724
01:01:56,000 --> 01:02:02,000
No. No. What really matters is talent and being it when it matters.

725
01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:08,000
And Seema Holmes, right now he doesn't look like it. I guarantee you if his playoffs, he would look like it.

726
01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:12,000
He has another gear that he isn't using right this moment.

727
01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:19,000
Yeah. I got to go into this. I didn't look at it at all. But there's this report out by somebody that made a lot of sense.

728
01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:27,000
Whenever Holmes has the secret sauce, the recipe, you ever see him do his hand motions where he's just like, come here, come here, come here?

729
01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:32,000
That's when he's thought of something and he's excited. And that's when he's going to kill you.

730
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:38,000
But I got to get that whole article because there's a big article for different instances when he's done this.

731
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:43,000
He doesn't do it every huddle. Yeah. Yeah. And I have seen what you're talking about.

732
01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:47,000
At first they said that's him telling the sideline, you know, hurry up and give me the play.

733
01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:50,000
Yeah. But I think it means something else. No, no, no. I think it means something else, too.

734
01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:54,000
I think it means, guys, this is it. Come on. Let's go and do it. Yeah.

735
01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:59,000
So and I don't even know if he meant to do it at first. Oh, yeah. It could be just one of those tells.

736
01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:03,000
Yeah. I think it's one of those things like, guys, get over here. I got it. I got it. Yeah.

737
01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:07,000
So so he ought to start doing it intentionally to throw the other team off. That's what I say.

738
01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:12,000
Wow. They'll be like, oh, shit, they're they're deep one. Yeah, whatever.

739
01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:18,000
They'll use handoff to fucking hunt. And everyone's like looking deep.

740
01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:24,000
All right. Next, our next game is Atlanta at Denver. OK.

741
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:30,000
Denver, Cloverton, 38, six. Holy cow. Ah. But we both got that right.

742
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:34,000
Yeah. We both did. Denver is a good team. They are better.

743
01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:40,000
They shut out Atlanta in the second half. Yep. Kirk Cousins through one TD and one interception.

744
01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:44,000
He's being Kirk Cousins. No, no TDs in one interception. Yeah.

745
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:48,000
I mean, I don't know why any. He's a great guy. Awesome guy.

746
01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:53,000
Like I said, he's a neighbor that will come over and mow your lawn when you're gone. Yeah.

747
01:03:53,000 --> 01:04:01,000
But only mow three quarters of it. And then he'll run over your hose. Yes.

748
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:04,000
The party mowed will look great. Yeah. Yeah. But it's like great.

749
01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:10,000
Kurt's got. Oh, shit. What did he do here? Yeah.

750
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:15,000
It's funny. Minnesota got rid of Kirk Cousins and got a guy just like him in Sam Darnold. Yeah.

751
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:20,000
Yeah. And then Kirk Cousins went to Atlanta. Looked great. Now he's looking like Kirk Cousins again.

752
01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:25,000
Yeah. That's why I told the Tampa Bay people, they're like, oh, we're not going to win the division.

753
01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:28,000
I go, no, Kirk Cousins going to be Kirk Cousins. You wait. Yeah.

754
01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:35,000
Yeah. New Orleans is falling off a cliff. Atlanta's definitely showing cracks.

755
01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:39,000
Yeah. That division is there to be won. And Baker Mayfield has been there before. He's done that.

756
01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:47,000
I look for them to win it. Yeah. Right now, I think Tampa and Atlanta are the only two that really have a realistic chance of winning that division.

757
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:53,000
That's it. Yeah. But either one of them could get it. Yeah. Very, very much so. Yep.

758
01:04:53,000 --> 01:05:03,000
See, Tampa Bay was on a on a buy last week. Yeah. But I mean, they're four and six, which is kind of far out because Atlanta is now six and five.

759
01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:13,000
Yeah. Let's look at our remaining schedule. OK. Each one of them. You get Atlanta. I'll get Tampa Bay. All right.

760
01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:20,000
That that that that that that that Tampa Bay remaining schedule.

761
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:26,000
But Atlanta Falcons remaining schedule. All right. We have.

762
01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:33,000
Oh, Buccaneers play the Giants, the Panthers, the Raiders.

763
01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:39,000
Giants, Panthers, Raiders, Chargers, Cowboys, Panthers, Saints.

764
01:05:39,000 --> 01:05:48,000
That doesn't sound too tough. And listen to Falcons, their very next game is going to be to do the Chargers.

765
01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:54,000
So the Chargers are on a roll. Then they play the Vikings. You can beat the Vikings.

766
01:05:54,000 --> 01:06:02,000
Yeah. The Raiders. The Giants. Yeah. The Commander's going to be a tough game. Yeah. And then the Panthers.

767
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:11,000
So they got an easy schedule, too. Yeah. Well, I mean, look at the Buccaneers. They're at the Giants, at Panthers, home for the Raiders.

768
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:16,000
They should win all those at the Chargers. That's where the Bucs could lose. Yeah.

769
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:21,000
And that's where Atlanta can lose to. And then at the Cowboys, they should win that. Yeah.

770
01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:30,000
Post the Panthers and then at the Saints. I can see the Buccaneers going 10 and 7. I could, too. Yeah.

771
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:35,000
Interesting. Yeah. So, OK. I mean, yeah, I mean, that can go either way.

772
01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:41,000
And like I said, Kirk Cousins can win it for you, too. Yeah.

773
01:06:41,000 --> 01:06:50,000
All right. Now the painful one, Casey at Buffalo. Buffalo won 30 to 21. We both predicted Buffalo was going to win.

774
01:06:50,000 --> 01:06:59,000
Yeah. I think I predicted Nut Tugger, did you? You were 23-21. I was 27-20. You were closer.

775
01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:05,000
And you know, the Chiefs kind of played the way I thought they would. Same here, too.

776
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:12,000
A little disorganized. Things weren't quite working. Stupid penalties caused by either or both tackles.

777
01:07:12,000 --> 01:07:22,000
Yeah. Jawan Taylor's a big fat bitch. Oh, God. And Worthy doing his little double toe tap before he caught the ball.

778
01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:24,000
Yeah. And then just running right out of bounds.

779
01:07:24,000 --> 01:07:31,000
You see, I looked at that again and I agree with the referees now. At first, I thought that he had both of them on the ground ahead of time. He didn't.

780
01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:38,000
No. We could have won that game if he would have made that catch. But then again, I mean. He's a rookie. He's a rookie.

781
01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:46,000
Yeah. It shouldn't come down to that. And also, the Bills should be upset. And they should be trying to beat us. Yeah.

782
01:07:46,000 --> 01:07:51,000
That other team's good, too, on the other side. Yeah. They only have one more loss than us. That's it. Yeah.

783
01:07:51,000 --> 01:08:00,000
So the Bills pass rush was way better than the Chiefs pass rush. Yes. And Jim Kelly. I keep calling him Jim Kelly.

784
01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:08,000
Josh Allen's response to it was way better than Mahomes because Josh Allen was like, oh, you're coming throw.

785
01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:15,000
Yeah. Oh, you're about to hit me throw. Yeah. Mahomes was run. Scramble. Look around. Scramble's more. Run. Scramble. No.

786
01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:22,000
No. He holds it way too long. And he's still holding it way too long. If it's not there in three seconds, throw the damn thing away.

787
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:31,000
And then go tell your coach and receivers, get open or call a play where you're going to get open in the first three seconds because I'm not running back here for more than that.

788
01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:40,000
He needs to. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's got to be the focus is if nobody's open after three seconds, throw the damn thing away. Yeah.

789
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:46,000
And if nobody's open next time, throw it away again. Yeah. And the next time and the next time. And if you have to pump, then go to the headline.

790
01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:53,000
They go to the sideline and tell Andy, look, man, you're calling shit. Give me something that's going to work in three seconds.

791
01:08:53,000 --> 01:09:05,000
Well, I don't know, man. Matt Nagy. I don't know. Like I said to you personally, I think it's just a conversation not on this show was Eric Bienemme had to see.

792
01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:18,000
He had the secret sauce, it seems like. Man, Nagy, I don't know. Yeah. Eric Bienemme got everyone fired up, got everybody wanting to perform well and impress Eric and do what Eric wanted him.

793
01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:25,000
Yeah. Because when he Bienemme went to Washington, it failed there because the players are like, who's this guy yelling at us? Yeah. I don't know this guy.

794
01:09:25,000 --> 01:09:34,000
And I think the Chiefs players all started to relax and think, oh, yeah, we're just better than them. So our natural talent will be enough.

795
01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:41,000
But then again, we did win two Super Bowls in a row without him. Yeah. So. But I think the cracks are getting wider. I think they are too.

796
01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:48,000
It's going to take a hell of a lot of effort. They're going to have to reinvent themselves big time. Yeah. So anyhow, that will come.

797
01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:58,000
I have faith that it will. And I'm just going to go with my last statement on this, what Mahal said to Josh Allen. See you in January. Yeah.

798
01:09:58,000 --> 01:10:05,000
That's it. And they will. Yeah. So that's it right there. See you in January.

799
01:10:05,000 --> 01:10:12,000
All right. Next game, Cincinnati at the Chargers. Chargers won 34-27.

800
01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:22,000
Interesting game because Nattie came back in the first half and tied it up 27 to 27. Hello. Hi. How are you doing? Good. I love this. Great.

801
01:10:22,000 --> 01:10:34,000
Oh, yeah. Yeah. We encourage people just come up and talk. Really? Yeah. All right. OK. I'm going to turn the mic around. All right.

802
01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:41,000
Well, so you're down here every week or what? You ready for the Chiefs? Yeah, we're down here. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. That's what we're talking about. Oh, my God.

803
01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:49,000
I can't wait. We're ready to come back with a vengeance. Yeah. You know, it's some point in time, Buffalo.

804
01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:55,000
I mean, they win during the regular season and we win during the postseason. That's why I wanted. I don't want it changing. No.

805
01:10:55,000 --> 01:11:03,000
But I mean, Buffalo is a very good team and they are mad at us. Yes, they have a reason to be. Very much so. Me and him both picked Buffalo because of that.

806
01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:12,000
What? Yeah. Well, no, we don't want them to win. We just believe they was going to win. And that's because there's a little thing here, you know, like revenge. Huge revenge.

807
01:11:12,000 --> 01:11:20,000
So now we'll see them at the Super Bowl. I really have a championship game. Yeah. Yeah. Championship game. Yeah. We'll be there.

808
01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:28,000
We'll be there with them. That's I predict that's what's going to happen. Yeah. Yeah. And it's going to be us. It wins, of course. Of course.

809
01:11:28,000 --> 01:11:35,000
They'll be at Arrowhead and they'll have their heart ripped out again. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And we'll all be cheering, blowing out the stadium with decimals.

810
01:11:35,000 --> 01:11:44,000
Yeah. Well, I made a preseason prediction that was going to be the Chiefs and the Lions in the Super Bowl. That's so far. That's that's definitely a possibility.

811
01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:52,000
Yeah, it is. That's a pretty good. That's solid right now, isn't it? Wow. So what's your names? I'm Topher. I'm Mark. Nice to meet you. I'm Sue.

812
01:11:52,000 --> 01:12:02,000
All right. Keep on doing what you do. OK. I love it. Thanks for coming by and talking. Yeah. Anytime. Anytime you want to come by. I love it. We're here Tuesdays. Excellent.

813
01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:08,000
Have a great day. Thanks for talking with us. Thank you. That's the best part of being here.

814
01:12:08,000 --> 01:12:13,000
It is. I know people just come by and talking. That's so awesome.

815
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:18,000
There are going to be some times this winter where it's just too cold to come down here. And that's the part I'm going to miss. Yeah.

816
01:12:18,000 --> 01:12:27,000
The interaction. Yeah. Yep. Oh, well. Oh, well. We'll find other places to frequent inside. Yeah. So.

817
01:12:27,000 --> 01:12:34,000
All right. Well, I don't know what else to say about that. We'll see them in January. Yeah, definitely see them in January.

818
01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:42,000
OK. I bumped something when I was turning around there. I think we're back to normal. Oh, I forgot to tell her the name of our show.

819
01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:47,000
So she could. Oh, yeah. I'm glad she introduced herself because I was going to ask her. Yeah.

820
01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:59,000
Let's see. We were talking Cincinnati at Chargers. We already talked about what's probably going on with Joe Burrow and the effect that's going to have on the team.

821
01:12:59,000 --> 01:13:05,000
I mean, this is speculation, but man, everything is pointing towards him being unhappy and wanting to leave. Yeah.

822
01:13:05,000 --> 01:13:13,000
And I can't necessarily blame him. I don't think he believes in Zach Taylor. I don't think he believes in the front office because they made no moves.

823
01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:19,000
None. Not one move to say, hey, Joe, you've done it before. We believe in you.

824
01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:23,000
Here's a couple of guys we think are going to help you win. Really? Just that little vote of confidence.

825
01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:27,000
Yeah, they would have been important to. They just stood there whistling, looking in there.

826
01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:35,000
And I guarantee you, Joe Burrow, unless Joe Burrow already made his intentions clear before that and they're like, all right, well, we're not getting anybody.

827
01:13:35,000 --> 01:13:44,000
Yeah. See, that would play. That's another indication that we're right. Burrows on his way out. Yeah. And they also have the interim guy.

828
01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:50,000
I forgot their backup last year that played fairly well. That's true. That's true. When Burrow was out with an injury.

829
01:13:50,000 --> 01:13:55,000
What was their backups name last year? I can't remember. I assume he would still be there, but you know what?

830
01:13:55,000 --> 01:14:06,000
I think it also should concern Cincinnati fan and the team that Cincinnati's defense didn't show up for the first half. No, no, not at all.

831
01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:11,000
They did in the second half. Yeah. But in the first half, it was just like, yeah, whatever you guys want to run, we'll just step aside.

832
01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:17,000
Was that a game plan? Was that a failed game plan? That was a failure. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, boxers will do that.

833
01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:25,000
Hey, yeah, punch yourself out and get yourself tired. I can take it and then I'm going to beat you in the. Yeah. Yeah.

834
01:14:25,000 --> 01:14:29,000
You stand there. Yeah. But football teams don't do that.

835
01:14:29,000 --> 01:14:39,000
It was it was whatever Cincinnati had for their defensive game plan wasn't working and they were unable to shift it and modify it until much later in the game.

836
01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:49,000
Yeah. So it was I was surprised that Cincinnati came back and got it within a score. So there's some fight left in them.

837
01:14:49,000 --> 01:14:58,000
Yeah. Gosh, I really don't know. No, I'm starting to think Pittsburgh and Baltimore make the playoffs out of that division.

838
01:14:58,000 --> 01:15:02,000
And Cleveland and since the year just licking their wounds, they're licking their wounds. Yeah.

839
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:10,000
When you have Pittsburgh doing so well, Baltimore doing so well, there's no room. No, especially they have seven losses already. That's true.

840
01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:15,000
They're the way teams are playing this year. I mean, anything can happen. Of course. Yeah.

841
01:15:15,000 --> 01:15:22,000
Their chances of pro football focus 20, no, 18 percent, I think, of making the playoffs.

842
01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:28,000
See, they're 18 or 22 percent chance of them making the playoffs. Yeah. Playoffs. Playoffs.

843
01:15:28,000 --> 01:15:35,000
Yeah. Cincinnati would with going undefeated the rest of the way would wind up 10 and seven.

844
01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:42,000
Yeah. And Baltimore's already got seven wins. Pittsburgh's already got eight wins. Yeah. And they beat them head to head.

845
01:15:42,000 --> 01:15:47,000
So yeah. So there really isn't much of a chance without a complete collapse by two other teams in your division.

846
01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:54,000
They play them again. Each one of them, I do believe. Yeah. Because that was that was Pittsburgh's first division game of the year.

847
01:15:54,000 --> 01:16:00,000
Yes. So from here on out, Pittsburgh is basically playing division game. And I don't think they played Baltimore twice.

848
01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:08,000
So that would be the only thing. But you really think that they're going to go ahead and win both of those when they haven't done anything all year?

849
01:16:08,000 --> 01:16:15,000
No, I'm not even going to look at the remaining schedule. No, they're out of it. We know it. Yeah.

850
01:16:15,000 --> 01:16:27,000
And the Monday Night Football game. Houston at Dallas. Houston won very handily 34 to 10. We both picked it. It warmed my heart.

851
01:16:27,000 --> 01:16:36,000
Yes. Warmed my heart. Houston never trailed. No. They were ahead the whole game. Seven nothing first drive. I added on at 10 nothing.

852
01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:48,000
Then Dallas had that one really good pass and run after. Yeah. I mean, Dallas is just they don't have much of anything now, it looks like.

853
01:16:48,000 --> 01:16:54,000
Yeah. As you're saying, Dak Prescott up in the up in the booth laughing and giggling. He was having a fucking blast every time I showed him.

854
01:16:54,000 --> 01:16:59,000
And I almost wonder if it's on purpose. He's probably so happy to be out of that shit show. Yeah.

855
01:16:59,000 --> 01:17:06,000
He's sitting there. He's supposed to be analyzing offense, I'm pretty sure, and going, hey, here's what we did wrong. Hey, I think we need to do this.

856
01:17:06,000 --> 01:17:13,000
Instead, he's having it up with the camera boys or something. Yeah. Yeah. He's like, and every time they show him is at the wrong time.

857
01:17:13,000 --> 01:17:19,000
You got me on that one. Yeah. I wonder if that was intentional on the part of that. That's what I'm wondering.

858
01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:26,000
The director of who's directing the television broadcast. Like the director picks the camera shots that go out over the air.

859
01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:31,000
And he's like, you know, you keep your camera on Dak Prescott. And any time he looks like he's having a blast, let me know.

860
01:17:31,000 --> 01:17:37,000
We're going to cut to it. Yeah. Or they could just pre record them in advance. Yeah, that could be.

861
01:17:37,000 --> 01:17:42,000
Let's record about eight, nine bits of of him laughing and grinning and hamming it up.

862
01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:50,000
And then we'll play them right after Dallas does something shitty. Yeah, I'm really surprised that I haven't seen any means over that because it was pretty obvious.

863
01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:59,000
And, you know, any time the camera cuts, it could be going to something pre-recorded. Yeah, you know, so you can't trust that that's the reaction shot to what actually happened.

864
01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:03,000
There's some stock footage, if you will. Yeah. On everywhere. Yeah.

865
01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:09,000
You know, it's like, hey, how can we look so young? We didn't bother to get a recent picture. So anyhow.

866
01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:14,000
So I thought it was interesting. The Cooper Rush for Dallas had one one touchdown, one interception.

867
01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:25,000
How many yards did he end up with? Three hundred and fifty four. Well, he got like 70 of them on the on the 10 yard pass. Yeah. Yeah.

868
01:18:25,000 --> 01:18:30,000
I think a lot of them was run after catch, just like Alex Smith, the one year that he

869
01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:35,000
leaded the division, the year that we let him go the next year, we traded him to Washington.

870
01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:43,000
He had a 103.7 quarterback rating. Yeah. And he compiled a lot, almost 5000 yards. I mean, he looked great. He did.

871
01:18:43,000 --> 01:18:50,000
OK. And the reason was is he would throw that 10 yard, 15 yard pass and Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelsey would break it. Yeah.

872
01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:54,000
Stretch it. Yeah. They're like, how in the hell did Alex Smith get 370 yards?

873
01:18:54,000 --> 01:19:02,000
Well, Tyreek accounted for 140 of them by running after pass. You know, well, Dallas only rushed for 64 yards.

874
01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:16,000
Yeah. Ezekiel Elliott was nowhere to be found. They're done with him. Yeah. That's OK. Ezekiel Elliott will be the face of what's going on in Dallas.

875
01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:21,000
They're not looking for real answers. They're just looking for like little patches. Yeah. Yeah.

876
01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:26,000
It seemed like it was really just a bone to throw to the fans. Oh, you liked him.

877
01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:32,000
We'll bring him back and then you'll be happy again. And then he just craps all over the team and the team is worse for him being there.

878
01:19:32,000 --> 01:19:40,000
Yeah. That's if you're a Cowboys fan, that's what your organization is doing right now and thinks they're winning.

879
01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:46,000
Oh, yeah. We're doing the right thing here. Dallas, give up your tickets. I would be really worried.

880
01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:54,000
I would. I would. Yeah. I'd be like, you know what? Fuck you. Get rid of Jerry Jones. Decapitate the monster and then start from scratch.

881
01:19:54,000 --> 01:20:06,000
Here's a theory. In five years, we're going to hear that Jerry Jones had early onset had early dementia symptoms during this time.

882
01:20:06,000 --> 01:20:11,000
And we just didn't know about it. And that's why he made all those bad moves is because the poor guy had dementia.

883
01:20:11,000 --> 01:20:18,000
Yeah. And then Cowboy fan will forgive everything and believe all over again. Yeah. Yeah. And I got one for you.

884
01:20:18,000 --> 01:20:26,000
This is back to the Paul Tyson fight. The only five minutes I could get without buffering was Jerry Jones.

885
01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:35,000
I've been hearing that. Yeah. It's like him. But close up of his stupid mug saying stupid shit, bragging about stupid things.

886
01:20:35,000 --> 01:20:42,000
And it surprises me that whoever directed that broadcast thought that we wanted to see Jerry Jones face on TV.

887
01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:51,000
Everybody turned it off. So the people dumb enough to keep it on like me got to watch it. I was in hopes that it was going to stay like that.

888
01:20:51,000 --> 01:20:56,000
But then as soon as they went back to action. Yep. Yep. I had to watch it on my cell phone, actually.

889
01:20:56,000 --> 01:21:04,000
I saw a comparison video of Mike Tyson and how he acted during sparring and practicing. And he was fast. He was quick. He was on it.

890
01:21:04,000 --> 01:21:12,000
Then they showed how he acted in the ring half asleep. Yeah. He was just getting the paycheck. Both of them were just getting the paycheck.

891
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:21,000
I think they had a gentleman's agreement. Yeah. And you know, I knew it going in that it was going to be nothing and crap and worthless waste of time.

892
01:21:21,000 --> 01:21:28,000
So I didn't watch. I watched just because of the novelty of it. I mean, yeah. I want to see I want to see Iron Mike one more time.

893
01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:38,000
And I did. And his long nipples. I can't say I'm happy that I did, though. Maybe I should have left it the way it was.

894
01:21:38,000 --> 01:21:47,000
Yeah. It's like an old girlfriend that you know that you know is still evil and still like, I don't know, you know, a deceiver and all this stuff.

895
01:21:47,000 --> 01:21:54,000
And she gets you back at one last time. Like, Mark, I'm different now. No, no, no, no, no. No, really, Mark. It's different now.

896
01:21:54,000 --> 01:22:04,000
I want to settle down. Oh, no, no, no, no. Mark, really, really? OK.

897
01:22:04,000 --> 01:22:13,000
It's Mike Dyson. It's like, oh, you can still fight. Yes. Are you sure you can still fight? Oh, yeah. OK. I'll watch you fight.

898
01:22:13,000 --> 01:22:28,000
Well, one last thing I'll say about the Dallas Houston game is Dallas took a field goal off the board. Yes. They kicked a field goal, made it, and then put it back to what?

899
01:22:28,000 --> 01:22:35,000
Either a two or a one score. Yeah. Then they was it a 15 yarder, I think. It wasn't. It was like 50 yards. Yeah, it was a big one.

900
01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:46,000
And then there was a penalty on the penalty was a 15 yarder, wasn't it? Houston for unnecessary roughness. It was like a head hit or something like that. Right. Yeah.

901
01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:52,000
Yeah. So they moved it up 15, but Dallas already made the kick. Do you really take points off the board?

902
01:22:52,000 --> 01:23:01,000
Usually you don't, especially because that put it from a three score game to a two score game. Yeah. But Dallas took the points off and then the rest of the drive got nothing.

903
01:23:01,000 --> 01:23:13,000
So it's still a three point game. Mike McCarthy. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So a lot of people are second guessing that taking three points off the board, as it turned out, those three points wouldn't have made any difference in the final score.

904
01:23:13,000 --> 01:23:23,000
But then again, maybe the game would have gone different. Yeah. So more and more hijinks in Dallas. Yeah.

905
01:23:23,000 --> 01:23:32,000
So that's about everything I got. Football related. All right. Well, you want to go into some bullet points? Yes. Yes. Yes. All right.

906
01:23:32,000 --> 01:23:40,000
Now this one's just an odd one. And just because. Okay. If you could not root for the Chiefs, what team would you root for and why?

907
01:23:40,000 --> 01:23:54,000
Oh, I think this year I'd probably be rooting for Detroit. They've been down a long time. I'd like to see him get a chance in the limelight. I like a lot of the players on the Detroit Lions.

908
01:23:54,000 --> 01:24:06,000
If it were a different AFC team. Man, that's tough because there's not a lot of AFC teams. I'm going to go with the AFC team because AFC teams, we see them all the time at our arrivals. Yeah.

909
01:24:06,000 --> 01:24:17,000
I want Washington. I would root for Washington. They got rid of Dan Snyder, the idiot, and they got a really good young quarterback that is starting to get it done.

910
01:24:17,000 --> 01:24:30,000
And I would root for them because I already do. So. But Detroit. I'd root for Washington. I see Detroit though because, you know, they've always been the bottom dwellers and they finally got it together and a good head coach.

911
01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:42,000
And that town could really use a championship. And also this. The Rams got Matthew Stafford. They got one Super Bowl and that's probably it with him. Wouldn't it be great if Jared Goff got one?

912
01:24:42,000 --> 01:24:50,000
That would be. And it would be like, well, you traded for nothing, dumbass. So there you go.

913
01:24:50,000 --> 01:25:02,000
Okay. That question went better off than I did. When we started talking it out, I'm like, okay, yeah, we had really legitimate reasons. Yeah. Okay. But AFC, I think I'd probably go with Houston.

914
01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:11,000
Me too. I've always. Ever since they started as an expansion team, I've liked the Houston Texans. I have too. I really liked them in the playoffs. Yeah.

915
01:25:11,000 --> 01:25:24,000
Because we usually kick their ass. I remember I was up in Massachusetts on a job and I walk into. Okay. I was late because I was waiting for an Uber driver to come get me. Right.

916
01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:32,000
And I was late to that barbecue joint that I was going to watch the game at. Right. Because they had they were kind of a sports bar too. And so I was late.

917
01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:41,000
So I get to the game and we're behind 24 to nothing. And I'm like, what the hell happened? And I was motherfucking. I was wearing my home's jersey.

918
01:25:41,000 --> 01:25:47,000
He got next to me and said, you guys got my home. So I won't worry about it too much. Yeah. He had more faith than I did.

919
01:25:47,000 --> 01:25:58,000
Chris, we've been through a lot. He came up a little bit later. Yeah. We've been through a lot of heart wrenching losses in Kansas City with other quarterbacks.

920
01:25:58,000 --> 01:26:06,000
So we're still gun shy. That was the day Kobe Bryant died too. I remember I was watching the game and the big yellow screen said Kobe Bryant dead at whatever.

921
01:26:06,000 --> 01:26:17,000
And I'm like, what? I missed everything today. So anyhow. I remember watching an investigation into the helicopter crash that killed Kobe.

922
01:26:17,000 --> 01:26:23,000
And for the most part. Is this his fault? Well, it wasn't Kobe's fault. Oh, it wasn't? It was the pilot's fault.

923
01:26:23,000 --> 01:26:32,000
Oh, I thought he demanded to go in bed. He asked to. He said, I want to go to this certain place and get there by a certain time.

924
01:26:32,000 --> 01:26:43,000
It was like his daughter's game. Yeah. And the pilot was the same pilot that Kobe pretty much always used.

925
01:26:43,000 --> 01:26:50,000
And the guy had gone from a professional helicopter pilot to being a Kobe Bryant fanboy. Oh boy.

926
01:26:50,000 --> 01:26:57,000
He was spending most of his time trying to please Kobe and joke with Kobe and be Kobe's best friend instead of flying the damn helicopter.

927
01:26:57,000 --> 01:27:03,000
Yeah, I see what you mean. It was the pilot's fault because he agreed to do it when he knew better. Kobe Bryant didn't know.

928
01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:12,000
He was like, can we go? And he's like, sure. Anything. Yeah. And the helicopter pilot flew out of his designated flight path.

929
01:27:12,000 --> 01:27:22,000
He flew in the wrong area, got into a bank of clouds and then just lost his sense of direction. And they were winding up like flying sideways and down.

930
01:27:22,000 --> 01:27:28,000
And he thought he was flying straight level. And they just went plowing right in. A helicopter is not that fast in the dissension either.

931
01:27:28,000 --> 01:27:36,000
So it had been horrible. Yeah. Yeah. They probably knew a few seconds before they hit exactly what was going to happen to them.

932
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:46,000
But yeah, you don't party with the pilot. That's where a lot of people lose their lives is you to make friends or you party with them or you became buddies.

933
01:27:46,000 --> 01:27:56,000
Or there was another air crash where the captain had his kids come up and sit in the seat and fly the plane. Oh, I remember that. Yeah.

934
01:27:56,000 --> 01:28:04,000
And one of the kids disengaged the autopilot without realizing it. No one else did. The plane went down. Wow. Yeah.

935
01:28:04,000 --> 01:28:15,000
Yeah, I remember that. That was quite a while ago. Yeah. Yeah. The cockpit voice recorder recorded his kids up there sitting in the pilot seat, their hands on the controls.

936
01:28:15,000 --> 01:28:25,000
Wow. Another reason I don't like flying. Oh, yeah. If I can get around flying, I will. But man, there's nothing better than getting to Florida in like three hours. True.

937
01:28:25,000 --> 01:28:35,000
Oh, it's great. But anyhow, all right. Bullet points. Should the Super Bowl consider scaling down the halftime show or will the teams need that extra time to calm down and to game plan?

938
01:28:35,000 --> 01:28:43,000
Do you think it's actually a good thing? Yeah, I think the teams do benefit from having a little extra time to calm down.

939
01:28:43,000 --> 01:28:52,000
As far as the question, should they do? I don't think they ever will scale down the halftime because the halftime show makes a lot of money for the NFL. Exactly.

940
01:28:52,000 --> 01:29:00,000
Because the performers who perform at halftime pay for the privilege to perform at halftime. It also adds viewership. Yeah. Yeah.

941
01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:05,000
So who wasn't last year that bought the halftime show and then started farming pieces of it out?

942
01:29:05,000 --> 01:29:19,000
Well, after Breanna and all that stuff and her midsection touching stuff and all that stuff, I think last year is kind of not so quite a, what would you call it?

943
01:29:19,000 --> 01:29:27,000
Flamboyant. Flamboyant. Yeah. I can't remember who it was. It was an older artist, I believe, wasn't it? Like maybe it's Drake or something. I can't remember.

944
01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:42,000
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, for the NFL, it's a money opportunity. Yeah. For their performers, it's an exposure kind of thing because they will absolutely definitely get talked about because the media is obligated to.

945
01:29:42,000 --> 01:29:55,000
By contract, they're obligated to talk about the halftime entertainment and talk about it nicely. But if everyone is sick and tired of it and is tuning out, you know, because, hey, it's going to be 30 minutes.

946
01:29:55,000 --> 01:30:04,000
I'll just, you know, I'll set a timer, go watch the show, and then I'll come back when the second half starts. Then it's just not working out for anybody. I agree.

947
01:30:04,000 --> 01:30:21,000
They're going to have to change it or artists and entertainers are going to quit buying the halftime show because it's losing them money. The NFL, I think, wants to keep it the way it is. But as the fans start turning away, musicians and other people aren't going to keep forking out the bucks to do the halftime show.

948
01:30:21,000 --> 01:30:27,000
I think that's the best way to answer it. I agree with it 100%. I'll know what to add to that. Yeah. Yeah. Okay.

949
01:30:27,000 --> 01:30:38,000
When it comes to the NFL, they're going to chase the money. Yeah. First and foremost. It doesn't matter how anyone feels. This is the way it's going. Doesn't matter how it changes the game. Doesn't matter how it disrupts traditions.

950
01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:47,000
As a matter of fact, I think the players could go to them and go, we would like to scale down a little bit because it's really interrupting our flow and mindset. And they'd be like, no. No.

951
01:30:47,000 --> 01:31:00,000
All right. Next one. Should the NFL require an attendance standard for cities in the league and should teams be pulled because of lack of interest? So like Jacksonville. Yeah. Or Carolina. Yeah. I know they have horrible teams.

952
01:31:00,000 --> 01:31:17,000
But if this continues, should the governed body, it could be of who's there now or it could be the rest of the owners, could they dictate to them and go, listen, this area doesn't like you. We want to go somewhere else where there's more interest.

953
01:31:17,000 --> 01:31:30,000
Let's say Columbus, Ohio is a big market, right? Yeah. And they want their own team. And Jacksonville doesn't give a shit. Should they have the right to Columbus have the right to go, you know what? We're building a new stadium and we want them.

954
01:31:30,000 --> 01:31:39,000
Nobody there wants them. We do. Look at this fan base. Look at all these signatures. Look at all these season tickets we would sell.

955
01:31:39,000 --> 01:31:55,000
I mean, really the whole object is, is get as many people on the bandwagon and ready to go and talking about the NFL as possible. That would be a great way. But then there's that other side where if you go through a lull and people are like really pissed off like Dallas.

956
01:31:55,000 --> 01:32:07,000
Oh yeah. Yeah. Would you move the Cowboys? No. You're not going to move the Cowboys. Yeah. But it could be considered under this plan. As much as I like it, I don't like it.

957
01:32:07,000 --> 01:32:19,000
You know, as much as I like the thought that you have to add excitement and entertaining. Yeah. You got to earn your spot. Yeah. Basically, you got to earn your spot. But I think this is a bad idea. Yeah.

958
01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:41,000
I think it's already happening to a lesser degree informally. It has. The NFL franchise is basically fall into two categories. One is we want to be in this city and the others are we want to continue this franchise name regardless of where we are in the city.

959
01:32:41,000 --> 01:32:53,000
I agree. In the state, in the country, whatever. So Dallas, you would keep in Dallas, but you could bring pressure to flush out the owner, the front office, just totally make them revamp.

960
01:32:53,000 --> 01:33:06,000
And the way they bring pressure is they stop scheduling you for national games. They quit covering you so much in the press. Dallas will feel the squeeze and do what the league office tells them to.

961
01:33:06,000 --> 01:33:19,000
But like Jacksonville of Carolina, they're not really invested in those cities. So it's like, hey, if we can move on these teams to Columbus, Ohio, we could even rename them because people aren't really invested in those names per se.

962
01:33:19,000 --> 01:33:29,000
There's a lot of other emerging markets that are looking for a team because a city that has a professional team has their stamp. Yeah.

963
01:33:29,000 --> 01:33:39,000
You know, it's like, oh, OK, they're legitimate. You never hear about Columbus, Ohio, because they do not have a professional. Well, they have a soccer team. Yeah.

964
01:33:39,000 --> 01:33:49,000
But they're basically college sports kind of. Yeah. Yeah. Just like Nebraska is. Yes. Nebraska, I don't think would want an NFL team because college football is so important.

965
01:33:49,000 --> 01:34:01,000
Yeah. I mean, I mean, you could look at them if they wanted an NFL team and they'd be a great market. I'm sure. What a rivalry. Yeah. Kansas City. But this is not the way to do it.

966
01:34:01,000 --> 01:34:09,000
And I think that is not looking for expansion in America now. I think they're looking at it over. Yeah. Yeah. I think that's the smart way to go.

967
01:34:09,000 --> 01:34:20,000
All right. What football reporter is the most accurate? Who gets it right most of the time? I'm saying Adam Schaftor. Yeah, I would say Schaftor.

968
01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:33,000
Scott Van Pelt doesn't really do a whole lot. He's not out there the way Schaftor is. No, Schaftor digs. Scott Van Pelt, he's really good at what he does, but he's not necessarily the scoop guy.

969
01:34:33,000 --> 01:34:49,000
No, he's the show presenter kind of guy. Yeah, and he's very good at it. Yeah. So, yeah, I'd say Adam Schaftor would probably be it. Yeah, he's kind of the he's kind of it. Yeah.

970
01:34:49,000 --> 01:34:59,000
And the funny thing is, is for a long time he was not it. He kind of developed into it. Yeah, I think people kind of over time figured out that this guy knew what he was talking about more than a lot of other people do.

971
01:34:59,000 --> 01:35:13,000
Yeah. Oh, speaking of not knowing what you're talking about. I've seen some promos already talking about the draft. Uh huh. And they're still talking about Mel Kuiper.

972
01:35:13,000 --> 01:35:27,000
Why are they still on this guy? He is useless. He is he doesn't know what he's talking about. He's proved irrelevant. Yeah, he's so utterly useless and irrelevant and wrong, but they keep trotting him out every year.

973
01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:39,000
I don't know who it is that still believes him and wants to hear what he has to say. Yeah, yeah, who still wants to hear what he has to say. Yeah. I'm really surprised that Mel Kuiper's still hanging in there.

974
01:35:39,000 --> 01:35:49,000
And I don't know if he's still remember he had that whole magazine he would sell. Oh, yeah. What a dipshit. Yeah. I'm sure no one's buying that anymore. No, no, that guy.

975
01:35:49,000 --> 01:36:03,000
He's yeah, he proved to be an idiot in my opinion, a long time ago. And like I said, he's human foreskin. Yeah, just worthless. Yeah. Dick flap. Yeah. That's all. Yeah. He talks real fast and he says a lot of words.

976
01:36:03,000 --> 01:36:11,000
But then you realize he really doesn't know what he's talking about. Yeah, he says a bunch of stuff that he has no idea and should comment on. Yeah.

977
01:36:11,000 --> 01:36:21,000
Okay, next one. Why in the world did Mike Tyson walk around with his ass hanging out of his ass floss that he had on? Did you see that?

978
01:36:21,000 --> 01:36:26,000
Why in the world would you allow that? He wants to get laid.

979
01:36:26,000 --> 01:36:40,000
Think that's it? Yeah. He did grab his penis during the weigh in. So maybe you're right. Yeah. Yeah. He's just out there. It's like his Tinder profile.

980
01:36:40,000 --> 01:36:54,000
Plus, it's titillating all the people watching. We saw butt cheeks. Look at my ass. My ass is so big or whatever or good or whatever. Not big. He doesn't have a big ass. My ass is so muscular.

981
01:36:54,000 --> 01:37:03,000
And it's kind of interesting and saddening sometimes to look at what entertains people. Because that was entertaining for a lot of people.

982
01:37:03,000 --> 01:37:08,000
Well, that was great big talk. That was great big talk. Everybody's talking about Mike Tyson's ass floss. Yeah.

983
01:37:08,000 --> 01:37:15,000
And I'm sure that's why the network, Netflix or whoever has put it out there is because they thought, ooh, this will get us some attention. You're right.

984
01:37:15,000 --> 01:37:28,000
It's like, remember that show NYPD Blue was one of the first ones to show ass nudity on network television. Yeah. And it was always done just for pandering and exploitative purposes.

985
01:37:28,000 --> 01:37:37,000
It never had anything to do with the story line. It was just, you know, it was just a gimmick to appeal to those type of people.

986
01:37:37,000 --> 01:37:46,000
And I think that's why Mike Tyson did it is it gets more people to feel less shitty about the last 30 minutes they spent watching that crap.

987
01:37:46,000 --> 01:37:53,000
You know what? And you're right. No one's really talking about the fight. They're talking about the antics of the fight. So there you go. You're right.

988
01:37:53,000 --> 01:38:01,000
It really seems like the whole thing was designed to be distraction and not really a sporting event. And that's what it wound up being. Yeah.

989
01:38:01,000 --> 01:38:12,000
So, you know, on that on that level, it succeeded in exactly what Netflix wanted. And, you know, their only issue, I'm sure, is the is the streaming problems they had.

990
01:38:12,000 --> 01:38:22,000
But as you said, that was probably a test run. Yeah. For the upcoming football games like, hey, let's throw out something that we don't give a damn about and see if our network can handle.

991
01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:29,000
That's true. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's a doorway game. And the only way you're going to get that amount of people, people are not going to buy that for 70 bucks.

992
01:38:29,000 --> 01:38:37,000
Yeah, because you would have had a lot of people demanding their money back. But by doing it for free, they probably knew going in, they were going to have a lot of problems or screw ups.

993
01:38:37,000 --> 01:38:43,000
It's like, let's do it for free. So we don't have to get sued by anybody. You can test the network then. Yeah. Right. Yeah. All right.

994
01:38:43,000 --> 01:38:51,000
We're being used as beta testers. Beta testers. Yeah. Unwilling beta testers. People like me cussing their TV. You know, I was cussing my internet provider.

995
01:38:51,000 --> 01:39:03,000
And then I realized it happened everywhere. Because I look on Facebook, I'm like, wait a minute. Yeah. So it's like the other day, I went through an enormous long rigmarole of getting logged in to the Office of Personnel Management,

996
01:39:03,000 --> 01:39:17,000
which is what retired federal employees go through. So I can pick my new health insurance for the coming year. And by the time I got through the whole login process and it transferred me to the government website, it was crashed.

997
01:39:17,000 --> 01:39:31,000
Because it's open season and everybody's logging in trying to mess with their health insurance and their network just can't handle it. So as soon as I saw that crashed, you know, web page is like, yeah, it's not it's not anything I have control over.

998
01:39:31,000 --> 01:39:44,000
It's at the source. They're overloaded and they can't handle it. You're right. Yeah. All right. That was Netflix. If you could put together a football commentator team, let's say two main guys, a field reporter and a halftime guy,

999
01:39:44,000 --> 01:40:01,000
who would you pick for what spot alive or dead? Literally anybody. Okay. Play by play with Kevin Harlan. Yes. Color commentary, Lind Awesome. Yep.

1000
01:40:01,000 --> 01:40:15,000
And then for the two sideline reporters, one would be Bill Grigsby. Oh, yeah. He's just so much fun. Yeah, he was. And the other one, Pam Oliver.

1001
01:40:15,000 --> 01:40:26,000
You know what? I see no reason to go against that. Yeah, I've always liked Pam Oliver. She's smart. She doesn't bullshit around. She's my favorite. She knows what she's talking about. Yeah. She doesn't pander.

1002
01:40:26,000 --> 01:40:40,000
She goes, man, Josh, that was such a good pass earlier in the third quarter when you were scrambling. No, she's just like, well, you know, you're going to make play. You know, stuff, you know, is this a step towards in the right direction of maybe getting past Kansas City?

1003
01:40:40,000 --> 01:40:54,000
You know, yeah, stuff that really is relevant that people want to hear. Yeah. So, okay. I was trying to think of remember there was a blonde woman. I think she worked for ESPN. Bonnie Bernstein. Yeah. Yeah.

1004
01:40:54,000 --> 01:41:04,000
She seemed like she was really with it and on the ball. She just disappeared. I see her anywhere. Yeah. It was just like one year, boop, gone. No idea where she went. I liked her a lot. Yeah, I think she did a really good job.

1005
01:41:04,000 --> 01:41:12,000
I was surprised that she was nowhere. Yeah. So it must have been her decision because I'm pretty sure someone would have picked her up if they in fact let her go.

1006
01:41:12,000 --> 01:41:25,000
Well, knowing ESPN, somebody probably tried to rape her at work and flooded her inbox with dick pics and she had had enough and left. That is ESPN's end. Yeah.

1007
01:41:25,000 --> 01:41:36,000
And Disney and McDonald's and US Steel. Wait a minute. What's this Brett Favre guy? Favre dude.

1008
01:41:36,000 --> 01:41:48,000
If you know, you know. Yeah. All right. What if the division is weak? The division champion is under 500. Should the winner of the division have to forfeit to the first team left out of the playoffs?

1009
01:41:48,000 --> 01:41:59,000
But only sub 500 and the next team like let's say a 10 of 17 is left out because the other two teams are 11 and 12 or 13 wins, right? Yeah. Okay.

1010
01:41:59,000 --> 01:42:12,000
And then you have the third one there like let's say Denver. The Chargers are second and Denver's like 10 and 7. And then let's say the Jets. Okay.

1011
01:42:12,000 --> 01:42:20,000
Let's just pick them. They win sub 500. Okay. Or Houston wins sub 500. Okay. I don't think they're going to.

1012
01:42:20,000 --> 01:42:26,000
Should they be allowed to take that final playoff spot because they're obviously the better team and better suited?

1013
01:42:26,000 --> 01:42:37,000
I would say yes. If you finish with a losing record and still win your division, you win your division and you win the title and you get all the glory that goes with that.

1014
01:42:37,000 --> 01:42:41,000
But you don't go to the playoffs. You don't get the automatic playoff births anymore. Playoffs? Yeah. Yeah.

1015
01:42:41,000 --> 01:42:52,000
So yeah, I think the four division winners should get automatic playoff births unless they have a losing record, in which case they get everything but the playoff birth.

1016
01:42:52,000 --> 01:43:00,000
Unless they happen to make it as a wild card themselves. But I don't see.

1017
01:43:00,000 --> 01:43:07,000
Has there ever been a wild card with a losing record? I don't think there ever has. There have been division winners with 500 records.

1018
01:43:07,000 --> 01:43:12,000
No, division winners got it, but wild cards usually have better records. Yeah, the wild cards pretty much always have to have winning records.

1019
01:43:12,000 --> 01:43:18,000
Yeah. So yeah, I would be in favor of a division winner giving up their playoff spot to somebody with a better record.

1020
01:43:18,000 --> 01:43:29,000
I would too, but like you said, you still get the title, you still get the accolades, yeah you win your division, but playoffs, no, you're not one of the upper teams. We're sorry. You're not going to be part of them.

1021
01:43:29,000 --> 01:43:39,000
There are some people who are advocating for at the end of the regular season, you just take the top 14 teams.

1022
01:43:39,000 --> 01:43:45,000
And you don't worry about NFC or AFC, it's just the top 14 teams. And then you see the playoff bracket.

1023
01:43:45,000 --> 01:43:53,000
I like that, yeah. Basketball does that. Yeah, basketball has done very well doing that. College basketball too.

1024
01:43:53,000 --> 01:44:02,000
The NBA is much better in my opinion when they started doing that, just taking the top teams. We don't care where you're from or what position you're at in your division.

1025
01:44:02,000 --> 01:44:07,000
What matters is wins and losses. And then some of them go by points. True, true.

1026
01:44:07,000 --> 01:44:20,000
But I think as long as there is value in the AFC-NFC rivalry, dating back to being separate leagues and now in the same league, as long as that rivalry has got market value, they're not going to change.

1027
01:44:20,000 --> 01:44:29,000
No, it's not going to change. And they love the underdog, and let me case in point, the New York Giants that beat the Patriots.

1028
01:44:29,000 --> 01:44:39,000
Yes. That's one of the reasons that Eli Manning got into the Hall of Fame, is because he beat the Patriots. Not that he won the Super Bowl, it's because he beat the Patriots.

1029
01:44:39,000 --> 01:44:50,000
What he did was he didn't make any mistakes. He didn't win it with his arm. The defense team, Spagnolo, won that. Like he probably won the Super Bowl last year.

1030
01:44:50,000 --> 01:44:59,000
But the NFL Hall of Fame is going the way of every other Hall of Fame, and it's not about achievement anymore. It's about popularity and will you draw visitors.

1031
01:44:59,000 --> 01:45:04,000
Yeah, it's kind of like the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Half of them aren't rock and roll, but they draw people.

1032
01:45:04,000 --> 01:45:07,000
And that's all they care about. Yeah, that's all they care about.

1033
01:45:07,000 --> 01:45:13,000
They should just call it the Music Hall of Fame and be honest about that. Yeah, they should. I agree.

1034
01:45:13,000 --> 01:45:22,000
All right, what two point conversions? Okay, should two point conversions be raised to three points to allow more teams to possibly tie or win?

1035
01:45:22,000 --> 01:45:28,000
Or should there be a possible three point conversion, but from like maybe the 15 yard line or 20 yard line?

1036
01:45:28,000 --> 01:45:34,000
So, okay, let me explain this a little bit better. Yeah. Okay, you're nine points down. Yeah.

1037
01:45:34,000 --> 01:45:42,000
You can get eight of them by doing it the traditional way, or you can go to this other way at the 20 yard line. You can get those three points.

1038
01:45:42,000 --> 01:45:46,000
I love that myself. I think that would be so good.

1039
01:45:46,000 --> 01:45:54,000
The UFL did something that the UFL doesn't kick extra points. No, I know. And that's kind of where I got the idea from a little bit of it. Yeah.

1040
01:45:54,000 --> 01:46:04,000
Yeah, you there's there's a you can go for one from the two yard line. You can go for two from the five yard line or you can go for three from the 10 yard line.

1041
01:46:04,000 --> 01:46:08,000
Yeah, I love that. I think that. Yeah.

1042
01:46:08,000 --> 01:46:24,000
An alternate that I've been thinking about is leave the one point kick and the two point conversion, but make every field goal over 50 yards a four pointer instead of three.

1043
01:46:24,000 --> 01:46:34,000
Yeah, yeah, that would work. I mean, if your two score is down and you need that four point field goal, you get down to, you know, the what the 35 yard line.

1044
01:46:34,000 --> 01:46:47,000
That's going to be a 52 yard field goal. Here's your four points. Just stop right then kick it, get the four points and you save time. Yeah, that would really open up a lot more things for strategy.

1045
01:46:47,000 --> 01:46:56,000
But I like your idea, too, is the farther away you go for it, the more points. Either way it could be done. I like both of them. Yeah.

1046
01:46:56,000 --> 01:47:04,000
So the reason I like the 15 or 20 yard line is because that makes it really interesting. It really opens up the playbook. Yeah.

1047
01:47:04,000 --> 01:47:12,000
Yeah, they have a better the sound stupid, but people in no football know seizure and make it from the 20 yard line and it is the five.

1048
01:47:12,000 --> 01:47:22,000
Yeah, you're down to the five and defense plays man because the back line of the end zone is like the fifth defender rack there. Yeah.

1049
01:47:22,000 --> 01:47:30,000
So you can play man all day in the in the, you know, right down there in the gala. That's how come you can get down there, but it's really hard. Much harder to get in. Yeah.

1050
01:47:30,000 --> 01:47:40,000
So there was a team in this. I'm sorry, a league in the 70s that just eliminated the extra point altogether. You score touchdown. It was seven points and you move on.

1051
01:47:40,000 --> 01:47:45,000
There's no kick. There's no nothing. That was an interesting way to that kind of sped up. I still like it.

1052
01:47:45,000 --> 01:47:56,000
I still like it whenever you miss an extra point and then someone wins by one point. Yeah. You know, I mean, there's still something about that because then the kickers even more of a bozo.

1053
01:47:56,000 --> 01:48:08,000
And then at the end, that's when they show close up of their face. Yeah. I think they need to change the onside kick rule because what we got now isn't working. No, it's onside kicks just aren't working at all. Yeah.

1054
01:48:08,000 --> 01:48:23,000
One suggestion I've heard is after you score, you can either kick off as normal or you can take the ball on your own 20 yard line and it's fourth and 25. I like that a lot.

1055
01:48:23,000 --> 01:48:30,000
So you've got to get at least 25 yards or turn the ball over on down. That would work. That would work. Yeah. Well, that deep in your own end zone.

1056
01:48:30,000 --> 01:48:41,000
That would make you think about it. But at least now you've got a chance to actually run a play. And if you're a great offensive team, you'll get it. Yeah. Way more often than you would some weird ass onside kick.

1057
01:48:41,000 --> 01:48:53,000
It also eliminates fluke wins. Uh huh. Yeah. So I like that fourth and 25 from your own 20. That's my favorite right there. It's like, sure. Here we are. Here's the 25 yard line. Have at it. Yep.

1058
01:48:53,000 --> 01:49:06,000
All right. What team has the dumbest jerseys and helmets? Oh, well, I'm going to go with their regular jerseys and helmets because some of those alternate ones are shit. Yeah. Yeah.

1059
01:49:06,000 --> 01:49:18,000
They know they're shit. Green Bay, Chicago and Denver and Pittsburgh have some of the ugliest, shittiest alternate uniforms. They're just revolting.

1060
01:49:18,000 --> 01:49:29,000
But as far as current ones, the jets have a horrible uniform. The jets I don't like. I think the Eagles, the colors are ugly. Yeah. They need to change the colors on there because they're just awful.

1061
01:49:29,000 --> 01:49:39,000
I can't, I just can't look at those Eagle colors for more than about 10 minutes without feeling nauseated. Carolinas powder blue doesn't work because that does not look tough.

1062
01:49:39,000 --> 01:49:49,000
And Tennessee, it's all baby colors. Yeah, it's all baby colors. Their logo is awesome. Yeah. But the uniform colors need to be something a little bolder.

1063
01:49:49,000 --> 01:49:58,000
Yeah. And I hate any team where their jersey blends into the field when it's rainy or snowing. I do too. Yep.

1064
01:49:58,000 --> 01:50:13,000
Yeah, I would say that things we just mentioned on the jersey and pants. But as far as the helmet, think about this. I don't like Washington's helmet.

1065
01:50:13,000 --> 01:50:22,000
No, Washington's helmet is boring. Yeah. Cleveland's helmet is boring. Cleveland's helmet sucks. That might be the worst. It's just color.

1066
01:50:22,000 --> 01:50:31,000
But please God, Cleveland, don't put that dumb ass little pixie on the side of your helmet. No, no. You've seen that that they occasionally put it at the half. I guess that's supposed to be a brownie.

1067
01:50:31,000 --> 01:50:39,000
Which is another little mythical creature. I thought they had to play at a college game when I first saw it. I'm like, oh, I wonder what college is around there. What happened to the regular field?

1068
01:50:39,000 --> 01:50:51,000
That's them. It looks like one of Santa Elves got some crack and found a football. Yeah. Yeah. That's kind of what that looks like.

1069
01:50:51,000 --> 01:51:00,000
Jacksonville's helmets are pretty mediocre. They could definitely be better.

1070
01:51:00,000 --> 01:51:03,000
Yeah, that's about it, I think.

1071
01:51:03,000 --> 01:51:16,000
Okay. All right. This is a second to last. Then the last is just a real quick one. Okay. Do you ever watch the Manning cast on Monday Night Football? I don't. No.

1072
01:51:16,000 --> 01:51:25,000
My DVR recorded it for some reason the other day, but then my DVR does that. It'll record things that I don't want just to get me to watch them.

1073
01:51:25,000 --> 01:51:31,000
So they pay extra to download on your DVR.

1074
01:51:31,000 --> 01:51:42,000
Which is irritating because the more full my DVR gets, the worse it functions. So I have to go through and erase all the crap that they've intentionally put on my DVR because they're trying to promote the show.

1075
01:51:42,000 --> 01:51:46,000
And that pisses me off to no end, but there's nothing we can do about it. They just do it.

1076
01:51:46,000 --> 01:51:52,000
Yeah. I don't own the DVR. Dish Network owns that DVR. So they do whatever the hell they want with it, don't they?

1077
01:51:52,000 --> 01:52:03,000
And they do. All right. And finally, this is a real easy answer and we can go on. Okay. For real, why did 50 million people watch the Tyson-Paul fight? Free.

1078
01:52:03,000 --> 01:52:04,000
Free.

1079
01:52:04,000 --> 01:52:14,000
Free. Other than that, I don't think it would have been that big of a buzz. You can always appeal to large groups of people by convincing them they're getting away with something.

1080
01:52:14,000 --> 01:52:25,000
Yeah. You're getting over on us. Oh, look, you're getting something you didn't earn or deserve or pay for. Look how you're taking advantage of us. And people will flock to that, even if it's something they don't even want.

1081
01:52:25,000 --> 01:52:34,000
Look, this bag of dirty diapers, who normally was $100, but we're just giving them away. People will line up to go get them because they heard they were free.

1082
01:52:34,000 --> 01:52:35,000
You're right.

1083
01:52:35,000 --> 01:52:49,000
It's the same with the fight. God, there's a hundred different things that are like that. I think crappy, shitty movies will start doing that. It's like, hey, free to come in as long as you buy stuff at the concession stand and see all the previews.

1084
01:52:49,000 --> 01:52:58,000
Yeah. And then you see all the product placement in the movie. Why do they even buy the charge you the admission? If they just made the movie free, they wouldn't have to worry about it so much.

1085
01:52:58,000 --> 01:53:03,000
And then they could do something like everybody that enters has to buy a popcorn and a drink.

1086
01:53:03,000 --> 01:53:18,000
Yeah, that could be it. You know, there's places where I say, you know, you get free admission if you bring canned goods for the food pantry. Do that in movie theater. You get to come in if you spend at least $10 at the concession stand, then you don't have to buy a ticket.

1087
01:53:18,000 --> 01:53:23,000
Yeah, they would get much more business. I think they would. I think the theaters would fill right up.

1088
01:53:23,000 --> 01:53:30,000
I would agree. All right. Well, is that the end of this one? Maybe?

1089
01:53:30,000 --> 01:53:40,000
I wanted to mention. Oh, OK. Remember the other day we were driving home and we went by the former Sprint Center and we saw those jelly roll trucks? Yeah. Yeah.

1090
01:53:40,000 --> 01:53:48,000
For that musician, Jelly Roll. We're driving by and we saw like six semis parked out front with the big Jelly Roll banner glued to the side.

1091
01:53:48,000 --> 01:53:53,000
I mean, what in the world does he have that requires six semis? Yeah, that was kind of a gee whiz moment.

1092
01:53:53,000 --> 01:54:00,000
And then we then we kept driving forward and looked around the corner and there were a dozen more. A dozen more down the road.

1093
01:54:00,000 --> 01:54:11,000
Yeah. He's got nearly 20 semis. And I started thinking, what the hell does he put in all those? How can he fit all that in there? And then I realized they're fake.

1094
01:54:11,000 --> 01:54:17,000
They're fake. Just just like those bands in the 80s that had that wall of amplifiers on stage. They were all fake.

1095
01:54:17,000 --> 01:54:23,000
They were all fake. They're empty boxes. There's one real one. But all the rest were there to make you go.

1096
01:54:23,000 --> 01:54:32,000
Wow. Yeah. The famous ones were Eddie Van Halen is fucking playing in that pose. Nope. Those are all just just just just for your eyes.

1097
01:54:32,000 --> 01:54:39,000
But yeah, I mean, Jelly Roll comes to KC and say he's got like four or five trucks that he needs.

1098
01:54:39,000 --> 01:54:47,000
So then he contacts a local trucking company and says, you know, we want to rent a dozen trucks for the day and just park them down at the Sprint Center.

1099
01:54:47,000 --> 01:54:52,000
And we're going to put our banner on the side. What a brilliant concept. No kidding.

1100
01:54:52,000 --> 01:54:56,000
You drive by like we do. And if someone's in the Jelly Roll, they're like, my God, look at that.

1101
01:54:56,000 --> 01:55:04,000
And it sets you up on your way in. You see all those trucks. You think, wow, this is going to be a great show.

1102
01:55:04,000 --> 01:55:10,000
And now you've got something invested in it being a good show. So you're looking for it to be a great show.

1103
01:55:10,000 --> 01:55:13,000
You're already in that mindset. And all they had to do is rent 20 trucks.

1104
01:55:13,000 --> 01:55:16,000
Yeah. When Monster Truck, when they come in, they only have five trucks.

1105
01:55:16,000 --> 01:55:20,000
And you're like, what in the hell can Jelly Roll do that? Yeah. Yeah.

1106
01:55:20,000 --> 01:55:27,000
And then, you know, the next day when he's off to Oklahoma City or whatever, he peels all those banners off the rented trucks.

1107
01:55:27,000 --> 01:55:32,000
And he rents some more down in Oklahoma City because those trucks don't even drive place to place.

1108
01:55:32,000 --> 01:55:38,000
They're just rented in the city where he is. And it's not just Jelly Roll. It's everybody. Everybody does.

1109
01:55:38,000 --> 01:55:42,000
Yeah. It's give the audience a gee whiz moment before they see the show.

1110
01:55:42,000 --> 01:55:47,000
And on their way out, they look at all those trucks again and go, wow, I sure got my money's worth.

1111
01:55:47,000 --> 01:55:53,000
Speaking of money's worth, Jelly Roll needs to get his money back from his tattoo artists.

1112
01:55:53,000 --> 01:55:56,000
Plain and simple. Anyhow, go ahead.

1113
01:55:56,000 --> 01:56:02,000
You know, I'm sure Jelly Roll is OK. I'm not really a fan of his music.

1114
01:56:02,000 --> 01:56:05,000
But what really bugs me the most... He has talent. Yeah, he does.

1115
01:56:05,000 --> 01:56:10,000
But what bugs me the most about him is that he stole someone else's name. Yeah.

1116
01:56:10,000 --> 01:56:17,000
A hundred years ago, there was a jazz and ragtime pianist and composer named Jelly Roll Morton. Yep.

1117
01:56:17,000 --> 01:56:22,000
And he was huge and he was famous and he played a lot and he sold a lot of songs.

1118
01:56:22,000 --> 01:56:28,000
And what's this guy do? He comes along and steals his name. That's bullshit. It is bullshit.

1119
01:56:28,000 --> 01:56:34,000
Come up with your own damn name. Yeah. You know, do I get to go on tour next week being Ozzy Osbourne?

1120
01:56:34,000 --> 01:56:38,000
No, that's somebody else's name. I don't get to steal it.

1121
01:56:38,000 --> 01:56:42,000
I mean, Jelly Roll, he could just go as fat ass. Yeah.

1122
01:56:42,000 --> 01:56:46,000
Or, you know, I deal with my emotional issues by overeating and getting tatted up.

1123
01:56:46,000 --> 01:56:49,000
That could be his name.

1124
01:56:49,000 --> 01:56:53,000
And, you know, there's lots of Jelly Roll fans and if you like him, great.

1125
01:56:53,000 --> 01:56:57,000
But for me, he stole someone else's name so I don't have any time for him.

1126
01:56:57,000 --> 01:57:04,000
He's got my cup of tea so I can't even comment on it because I have nothing. Yeah. Nothing.

1127
01:57:04,000 --> 01:57:10,000
Before my father died, he was really getting into the jazz and ragtime

1128
01:57:10,000 --> 01:57:17,000
and the early kind of blues and boogie woogie music from the 1920s and stuff.

1129
01:57:17,000 --> 01:57:22,000
And I remember seeing tons of manuscripts from Jelly Roll Morton.

1130
01:57:22,000 --> 01:57:28,000
So when this Jelly Roll guy showed up, I was like, wait a minute.

1131
01:57:28,000 --> 01:57:32,000
Well, I didn't even realize that. So, I mean, you know, man, that's cool.

1132
01:57:32,000 --> 01:57:36,000
And I think that's probably what he was counting on is like, eh, nobody's going to remember Jelly Roll Morton.

1133
01:57:36,000 --> 01:57:40,000
No, they didn't. You ever hear anything about it? No. Yeah. There you go.

1134
01:57:40,000 --> 01:57:45,000
But it makes a difference to me and I'm sure Jelly Roll is not going to miss the money I would have spent on him.

1135
01:57:45,000 --> 01:57:48,000
I mean, he doesn't care about me, but that's okay. You're not. He's demographic.

1136
01:57:48,000 --> 01:57:51,000
I'm just making a choice for me. I'm not telling anyone else what to do.

1137
01:57:51,000 --> 01:57:55,000
I'm just making the choice for me. I don't like it and I'm not giving him any money.

1138
01:57:55,000 --> 01:57:59,000
Yeah. No. I can't argue that.

1139
01:57:59,000 --> 01:58:02,000
Do you want to talk about anything else or do we want to go into the next show?

1140
01:58:02,000 --> 01:58:08,000
Just the one last thing is that I've been seeing ads lately for Robin Hood gold.

1141
01:58:08,000 --> 01:58:12,000
Have you seen those with the guy? A guy is on a yacht with a bunch of rich people.

1142
01:58:12,000 --> 01:58:15,000
And he's talking about how all these rich people invest in gold.

1143
01:58:15,000 --> 01:58:18,000
And now you can too as a little person. I have not.

1144
01:58:18,000 --> 01:58:25,000
Yeah. It's some old grizzled looking guy with a slight British accent.

1145
01:58:25,000 --> 01:58:30,000
And he looks like he might have been a movie star at one point. And it's a black and white ad.

1146
01:58:30,000 --> 01:58:34,000
And he's telling people that one of the ads is saying all these richy riches,

1147
01:58:34,000 --> 01:58:39,000
if they knew that you could buy gold just like them, oh, their world would just crumble.

1148
01:58:39,000 --> 01:58:44,000
They would know how to handle it. So it's trying to give the impression that if you buy gold,

1149
01:58:44,000 --> 01:58:46,000
you're herding the rich people. Yeah.

1150
01:58:46,000 --> 01:58:51,000
And I've seen some other places that are advertising, oh, buy gold, buy gold.

1151
01:58:51,000 --> 01:58:57,000
And gold is one of those things that only has value as long as people think it does.

1152
01:58:57,000 --> 01:59:04,000
If you stockpile gold and times get tough, the only thing you can do with that gold

1153
01:59:04,000 --> 01:59:07,000
is sell it to somebody else who's willing to buy it.

1154
01:59:07,000 --> 01:59:09,000
And guess what? They're buying food. They're not buying gold.

1155
01:59:09,000 --> 01:59:14,000
No. Everybody's going to have gold to sell. And nobody wants to buy it because you can't eat the damn thing.

1156
01:59:14,000 --> 01:59:18,000
You can't pay your utility bill with it. No.

1157
01:59:18,000 --> 01:59:23,000
So I think it's turning into one of those kind of sucker things.

1158
01:59:23,000 --> 01:59:28,000
Plus the fact that if you get this chunk of gold that you spent a bunch of money on,

1159
01:59:28,000 --> 01:59:33,000
you're taking somebody's word for it that it really is gold and it really is the purity they say.

1160
01:59:33,000 --> 01:59:35,000
Well, that's a great point. You brought that up the other day. Yeah.

1161
01:59:35,000 --> 01:59:39,000
What are you supposed to do? They don't have a kit that tells you the purity of it?

1162
01:59:39,000 --> 01:59:45,000
No. And if you buy the kit from them, they're going to sell you one that will give you the result that they want you to have.

1163
01:59:45,000 --> 01:59:53,000
Yeah. And gold is so soft and flexible. If that gold, whatever you buy, like a bar or something, it's not flexible.

1164
01:59:53,000 --> 01:59:56,000
It doesn't have that high of a gold content.

1165
01:59:56,000 --> 02:00:03,000
There have been tons of people throughout history who thought they were buying gold, but they were buying yellow colored lead.

1166
02:00:03,000 --> 02:00:08,000
Yes. Because it's about as heavy and about as soft and most people can't tell the difference.

1167
02:00:08,000 --> 02:00:13,000
And you're going to spend $3,000, $4,000 buying some gold bars.

1168
02:00:13,000 --> 02:00:17,000
And if you try to sell them, it's like melt this down and make a bullet out of it. That's all it's worth.

1169
02:00:17,000 --> 02:00:22,000
Yeah. And how about fool's gold? Fool's gold looks just like it.

1170
02:00:22,000 --> 02:00:27,000
It takes someone that really knows what they're doing to distinguish it.

1171
02:00:27,000 --> 02:00:37,000
And then look at the diamond industry. It's basically just horrible now because they make fake diamonds in labs and they have no impurities.

1172
02:00:37,000 --> 02:00:42,000
And the real diamonds actually are not rare in the least little bit.

1173
02:00:42,000 --> 02:00:50,000
The only reason that they're so expensive is because the diamond council or whoever it is,

1174
02:00:50,000 --> 02:00:55,000
strictly controls the number of diamonds that reach the market each year to keep the prices high.

1175
02:00:55,000 --> 02:01:00,000
And then when you buy it, they'll tell you all the consistency and the cut.

1176
02:01:00,000 --> 02:01:07,000
But when you sell it, that's not a very good cut. Look, that's dull right there. Oh, look, that's kind of letting...

1177
02:01:07,000 --> 02:01:11,000
And that's why diamonds are worth about 10% when you're trying to resell them.

1178
02:01:11,000 --> 02:01:17,000
It's because you bought them for way too much. That 10% you get when you resell them, that's about how much they were really worth to begin with.

1179
02:01:17,000 --> 02:01:23,000
Yeah. But they came out there and had a guy that knew what he was talking about and had that little telescope deal on his eye.

1180
02:01:23,000 --> 02:01:29,000
And oh yeah, oh yeah, this is a real deal. Then you buy it and then you take it back. It's like, oh man, now they...

1181
02:01:29,000 --> 02:01:33,000
Look, there's a lot of flaws in this. Look at it. It's not shiny, whatever.

1182
02:01:33,000 --> 02:01:41,000
Think of all those people who are buying expensive shiny rocks to give to someone simply because they've been told that that's what you do.

1183
02:01:41,000 --> 02:01:45,000
Exactly. That's the only reason people do it is because they've been told that's what you do.

1184
02:01:45,000 --> 02:01:51,000
I know people who just got their wedding ring tattooed. That was it. Yeah.

1185
02:01:51,000 --> 02:01:56,000
So, I mean, that's okay, but I mean, what if you get a divorce?

1186
02:01:56,000 --> 02:02:04,000
My wedding ring isn't gold. It's tungsten carbide, which was, you know, it's a big ass ring and it cost me about 60 bucks.

1187
02:02:04,000 --> 02:02:12,000
And it's virtually indestructible. That's all I care about. Mine's tungsten also, but I lost so much weight it doesn't fit my fingernails.

1188
02:02:12,000 --> 02:02:20,000
So, can't wear it. I'm sure a lot of people probably are like, what's going on, Mark? I don't wear this wedding ring anymore.

1189
02:02:20,000 --> 02:02:27,000
Do you have some issues? My father-in-law was like that. He didn't wear a wedding ring because his fingers got arthritic and swelled up.

1190
02:02:27,000 --> 02:02:31,000
And he just he wouldn't be able to get one on and off. So he just quit wearing one.

1191
02:02:31,000 --> 02:02:41,000
In that instance, I imagine getting a tattooed ring would be awesome. Yeah. Okay. You know what? I'm not going that far.

1192
02:02:41,000 --> 02:02:46,000
Yeah. I'm not real keen on tattooing anyway. Everything's working with it, just being like it is.

1193
02:02:46,000 --> 02:02:51,000
Later on, I'll get it refitted or something, whatever, and then I'll game weight.

1194
02:02:51,000 --> 02:02:56,000
So it's been all ahead. Hey, that's what I get. I get a fat ring and a skinny ring.

1195
02:02:56,000 --> 02:03:01,000
Good idea. A ring for every mood. That's right. And every weight.

1196
02:03:01,000 --> 02:03:05,000
Yes. All righty. Let's cut this bitch off. We're going to go into the prediction.

1197
02:03:05,000 --> 02:03:16,000
Do you ever wonder what these two dullards look like? Yeah, me neither.

1198
02:03:16,000 --> 02:03:22,000
Didn't you really sit there and listen to all that garbage that was being... Do you actually believe one inch of it?

1199
02:03:22,000 --> 02:03:36,000
I didn't think so. Hang on. Game over.
