WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.580
Hey, guess what? You just landed on the Sports

00:00:03.580 --> 00:00:14.480
Bastards. Sorry about your luck. Sports Bastards.

00:00:52.780 --> 00:00:54.659
Oh, I don't think anybody's ready for nine hours

00:00:54.659 --> 00:00:56.979
of this. Oh, okay. Well, I guess you're just

00:00:56.979 --> 00:00:58.740
going to have to use your power bank on something

00:00:58.740 --> 00:01:02.420
else. And good thing the power didn't go out

00:01:02.420 --> 00:01:04.760
last night because now you'd have about one hour.

00:01:04.879 --> 00:01:07.079
Yeah, I would have had to be scrambling to recharge

00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:13.980
it. Yes. Ow! Okay. Hot coffee burn baby. Oh,

00:01:14.019 --> 00:01:17.560
yeah, yeah, yeah. Having a rain man moment there.

00:01:18.859 --> 00:01:21.700
All right, so. Okay. I want to start off. Sports

00:01:21.700 --> 00:01:24.540
bastards. We didn't say that, did we? No, we

00:01:24.540 --> 00:01:27.920
didn't. Okay. Here we are 35 seconds in, and

00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:31.340
we haven't still told how well. You know what?

00:01:32.099 --> 00:01:33.560
They're getting what they pay for, aren't they?

00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:37.040
Exactly, yeah. You give people a free podcast,

00:01:37.299 --> 00:01:39.760
they take what they get. Yes, that's right. So

00:01:39.760 --> 00:01:42.079
I'm going to start off with a Christmas Day triple

00:01:42.079 --> 00:01:45.569
header. They have not announced the games. Just

00:01:45.569 --> 00:01:48.390
two day games on Netflix and one night game on

00:01:48.390 --> 00:01:52.129
Amazon Prime. Interesting. So they're essentially

00:01:52.129 --> 00:01:55.790
both on apps. Yeah. So like they're threatening

00:01:55.790 --> 00:01:59.730
to do. And like I said, I really do believe this

00:01:59.730 --> 00:02:01.969
is going to be true. They're spreading them out

00:02:01.969 --> 00:02:04.349
so far to where when they bring them all to one

00:02:04.349 --> 00:02:07.890
home, maybe NFL Network app or something. That's

00:02:07.890 --> 00:02:09.490
what I'm guessing. Yeah, or what's going to run

00:02:09.490 --> 00:02:11.150
to that. Well, you can get everything right here.

00:02:11.229 --> 00:02:14.599
Yeah. It makes sense because the NFL has been

00:02:14.599 --> 00:02:18.099
selling the TV rights for the games to all these

00:02:18.099 --> 00:02:20.919
networks who are in turn making a profit on it.

00:02:21.020 --> 00:02:24.219
So the NFL has realized if we keep these games

00:02:24.219 --> 00:02:26.860
ourselves and broadcast them ourselves, we'll

00:02:26.860 --> 00:02:29.340
get that profit. Because if they can afford to

00:02:29.340 --> 00:02:32.520
pay us $50 million and still make a profit, we

00:02:32.520 --> 00:02:35.740
will too. So the NFL network is setting itself

00:02:35.740 --> 00:02:40.069
up to become the home for all NFL games. And

00:02:40.069 --> 00:02:41.830
I believe that's probably what's going to happen

00:02:41.830 --> 00:02:43.930
is that right there. And then they can charge

00:02:43.930 --> 00:02:45.830
whatever they want for it per month, and people

00:02:45.830 --> 00:02:47.810
will pay it. Especially if you're gambling on

00:02:47.810 --> 00:02:49.189
the games, you're going to have to pay it so

00:02:49.189 --> 00:02:50.909
you can watch and make sure. And that's where

00:02:50.909 --> 00:02:54.009
the mobile phone comes in, the smartphone. And

00:02:54.009 --> 00:02:56.550
they have mentioned this several times about

00:02:56.550 --> 00:03:01.389
they want it easy to be phone accessible through

00:03:01.389 --> 00:03:05.030
apps. The reason that is is the guy with more

00:03:05.030 --> 00:03:07.509
than a rooting interest. He's, I don't know,

00:03:07.610 --> 00:03:10.909
camping. He goes, oh shit, hang on. I put $20

00:03:10.909 --> 00:03:14.409
down on the Vikings. Let's see what's going on

00:03:14.409 --> 00:03:16.550
there. Okay, I can watch. Oh, it's a fourth quarter.

00:03:16.770 --> 00:03:18.509
They're behind by three and they're driving.

00:03:18.729 --> 00:03:21.330
He puts on the game. He watches it because he

00:03:21.330 --> 00:03:23.669
has that money down on him. Yeah, I think that's

00:03:23.669 --> 00:03:25.789
going to be the driving force behind getting

00:03:25.789 --> 00:03:28.189
high -speed internet and cell phone coverage

00:03:28.189 --> 00:03:30.750
to the entire nation, including these remote

00:03:30.750 --> 00:03:33.169
and rural areas, because there's money to be

00:03:33.169 --> 00:03:36.240
made off of them. Remote areas of camping in

00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:38.259
southern Missouri, I know people that go deer

00:03:38.259 --> 00:03:41.240
hunting every year. For a long time, you just

00:03:41.240 --> 00:03:43.180
had to, you know, well, I hope they're okay,

00:03:43.379 --> 00:03:46.180
you know. You get a satellite phone, maybe that

00:03:46.180 --> 00:03:48.719
would work. Yeah, that would be it, satellite

00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:50.599
phone, kind of like ship to shore out there.

00:03:50.780 --> 00:03:54.180
But what it is, is they can get phone service

00:03:54.180 --> 00:03:57.819
all through those deep woods now. It's a combination

00:03:57.819 --> 00:03:59.939
of there's money to be made off the people in

00:03:59.939 --> 00:04:02.430
the remote areas. Plus, there's tracking data

00:04:02.430 --> 00:04:06.030
together and cell based on those people. Yeah,

00:04:06.150 --> 00:04:08.009
because if you provide them cell phone service,

00:04:08.289 --> 00:04:11.169
you can track them constantly, and then somebody

00:04:11.169 --> 00:04:14.430
will pay you for that tracking data. Yeah. Money

00:04:14.430 --> 00:04:17.370
to be made. Yeah. So I'm saying people are out

00:04:17.370 --> 00:04:18.949
deer hunting, and they have a little bit of money

00:04:18.949 --> 00:04:21.389
on the game, so that's a win -win for them. Yeah.

00:04:21.550 --> 00:04:24.310
So NFL Network is positioning themselves really

00:04:24.310 --> 00:04:28.430
well, I think. I'd be surprised if they let this

00:04:28.430 --> 00:04:30.449
opportunity get past them. But, yeah, I would

00:04:30.449 --> 00:04:33.569
say within the next three to five years, all

00:04:33.569 --> 00:04:36.730
the games will be on NFL, and you need the NFL

00:04:36.730 --> 00:04:39.290
app, and they're going to charge what they want

00:04:39.290 --> 00:04:42.589
to charge. Yeah, like business as usual, in other

00:04:42.589 --> 00:04:45.990
words. Yeah, yeah. All right. Next, the NFL owners

00:04:45.990 --> 00:04:47.990
have voted to align the regular season overtime

00:04:47.990 --> 00:04:50.810
rules more closely with the postseason overtime

00:04:50.810 --> 00:04:53.129
rules. I'd heard about that one, yeah. Yeah.

00:04:54.910 --> 00:04:57.310
The overtime rules in the postseason, the period

00:04:57.310 --> 00:04:59.430
is 15 minutes long, and both teams are guaranteed

00:04:59.430 --> 00:05:02.129
a possession. Yeah. Even if a team gets the ball

00:05:02.129 --> 00:05:05.170
first and scores a touchdown. Yeah. So what happened

00:05:05.170 --> 00:05:09.250
in the Super Bowl two years ago won't happen

00:05:09.250 --> 00:05:12.889
again. Yep. So. You keep making these rules to

00:05:12.889 --> 00:05:16.910
make it harder for the Chiefs to win. Yes. They

00:05:16.910 --> 00:05:19.750
are picking on the Eagles this time with the,

00:05:19.810 --> 00:05:22.790
what is it? Tush push, but they tabled it. Yeah,

00:05:22.970 --> 00:05:25.430
the butt blast. They tabled it. Yeah, the ass

00:05:25.430 --> 00:05:28.870
dozer. The ass dozer. Well, I'll tell you one

00:05:28.870 --> 00:05:31.129
thing is, if they outlaw it, they're going to

00:05:31.129 --> 00:05:33.589
cleverly figure out ways around it. True. And

00:05:33.589 --> 00:05:36.589
get people hurt. But what I think other teams

00:05:36.589 --> 00:05:39.870
should do, under the current rules, each team

00:05:39.870 --> 00:05:42.089
needs to hire somebody who's about five feet

00:05:42.089 --> 00:05:44.970
tall and weighs 75 pounds. Yes. And list them

00:05:44.970 --> 00:05:48.779
as an eligible number. Yeah. So he can line up

00:05:48.779 --> 00:05:51.120
under center, receive the snap, and then three

00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:53.740
big guys pick him up and throw him over the line

00:05:53.740 --> 00:05:55.819
of scrimmage. I love that idea. That is perfectly

00:05:55.819 --> 00:05:58.579
legal under today's rules. Yeah. Why aren't they

00:05:58.579 --> 00:06:00.500
doing it yet? Well, you're going to see a rule

00:06:00.500 --> 00:06:04.220
change next year. Yeah. Remember when Major League

00:06:04.220 --> 00:06:07.850
Baseball, one team signed a little person? whose

00:06:07.850 --> 00:06:10.449
strike zone was so tiny that he got walked every

00:06:10.449 --> 00:06:13.230
time. The very next year they changed the strike

00:06:13.230 --> 00:06:15.449
zone to be no matter how tall or short you are,

00:06:15.529 --> 00:06:17.470
this is the strike zone. This is the strike zone

00:06:17.470 --> 00:06:20.029
between your, what is it, between the top of

00:06:20.029 --> 00:06:22.370
your, hey, you know what, that's baseball, who

00:06:22.370 --> 00:06:25.069
cares. Yeah, but it's interesting how many rules

00:06:25.069 --> 00:06:28.290
are in place to stop teams from cheating. Yeah.

00:06:28.350 --> 00:06:30.810
Not to prevent them, to stop them in the first

00:06:30.810 --> 00:06:33.170
place. Can you imagine the little people? I mean,

00:06:33.170 --> 00:06:34.670
they're already pissed off about everything.

00:06:35.209 --> 00:06:37.110
you do that in football oh my gosh they'll be

00:06:37.110 --> 00:06:39.149
picketing games they'll be out there think of

00:06:39.149 --> 00:06:41.709
all the actors who are also little people who

00:06:41.709 --> 00:06:43.970
got shut out of the snow white movie in favor

00:06:43.970 --> 00:06:47.529
of cgi you know i know yeah yeah well you know

00:06:47.529 --> 00:06:50.490
there's a fire at the epcot center it got better

00:06:50.490 --> 00:06:53.029
it got better numbers than the snow white movie

00:06:53.029 --> 00:06:57.389
so yeah i haven't really looked at anything about

00:06:57.389 --> 00:06:59.610
the snow white movie because right now youtube

00:06:59.610 --> 00:07:02.420
is just sending me fake videos about whatever

00:07:02.420 --> 00:07:04.540
it thinks I'm interested in. Oh, no, it was a

00:07:04.540 --> 00:07:06.699
complete, complete flop. That's what I figured,

00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:09.000
but, you know, YouTube is at this point is trying

00:07:09.000 --> 00:07:10.779
to tell me what it thinks I want to hear, so

00:07:10.779 --> 00:07:12.500
I'll click on the video and watch it. You know,

00:07:12.639 --> 00:07:14.399
Hollywood's too busy trying to teach everybody

00:07:14.399 --> 00:07:17.779
a lesson. Nobody wants that. Yeah, it's really

00:07:17.779 --> 00:07:20.839
weird for such an industry that is so obsessed

00:07:20.839 --> 00:07:24.350
with making money and staying on top. they still

00:07:24.350 --> 00:07:27.329
feel like they can throw in some material that

00:07:27.329 --> 00:07:30.310
maybe not everybody wants to see or is willing

00:07:30.310 --> 00:07:33.209
to pay for. Yeah, I pay for a movie. They're

00:07:33.209 --> 00:07:35.430
not making strictly business decisions, are they?

00:07:35.470 --> 00:07:37.889
No, and I'm not saying I agree with it or not

00:07:37.889 --> 00:07:40.310
or anything like that. What I'm saying is I want

00:07:40.310 --> 00:07:43.110
a movie if I pay for a movie. I don't want it

00:07:43.110 --> 00:07:45.810
skewed one way or another to try to teach me

00:07:45.810 --> 00:07:50.160
something or to point out something. Yeah. Think

00:07:50.160 --> 00:07:52.339
of a band you like, and if their next album comes

00:07:52.339 --> 00:07:56.160
out and it's all a discussion of French literature

00:07:56.160 --> 00:07:58.560
from the 1800s. You're not going to buy it. No.

00:07:58.560 --> 00:07:59.899
You're going to be like, yeah, that's cool. And

00:07:59.899 --> 00:08:02.519
that's a perfectly valid subject, but I don't

00:08:02.519 --> 00:08:05.069
want to pay for to hear it. So that's what people

00:08:05.069 --> 00:08:06.730
are saying about any movie they don't want to

00:08:06.730 --> 00:08:08.610
see is like, yeah, I'm not interested in that,

00:08:08.649 --> 00:08:11.129
and I'm voting with my money. Yeah, and that's

00:08:11.129 --> 00:08:12.889
what's been going on a lot, how a lot of these

00:08:12.889 --> 00:08:14.670
movies have been flopping because they throw

00:08:14.670 --> 00:08:16.370
their own twist on it, and people are like, that's

00:08:16.370 --> 00:08:18.389
not how I remember it. Yeah, and then the worst

00:08:18.389 --> 00:08:20.470
thing they can do is start blaming the public

00:08:20.470 --> 00:08:22.649
for being racist or bigoted or stupid. And that's

00:08:22.649 --> 00:08:26.050
been going on too. Yeah, and that always works.

00:08:26.439 --> 00:08:28.300
Really poorly, doesn't it? Yes, it's like I'm

00:08:28.300 --> 00:08:30.259
none of the above, and I don't appreciate the

00:08:30.259 --> 00:08:32.539
accusation, and that's going to make me even

00:08:32.539 --> 00:08:36.019
stay away from you guys further. Okay, so both

00:08:36.019 --> 00:08:38.559
teams are guaranteed a possession. So under last

00:08:38.559 --> 00:08:41.500
year's rule, the touchback is so – okay, but

00:08:41.500 --> 00:08:43.100
that's no longer the case. So that's going to

00:08:43.100 --> 00:08:45.899
be like another – the way I read this and the

00:08:45.899 --> 00:08:48.179
way I read it is it's going to be another quarter.

00:08:48.840 --> 00:08:54.250
Yeah, a full quarter. Yeah, and that's it. Under

00:08:54.250 --> 00:08:56.769
last year's rule, the touchback was at the 30

00:08:56.769 --> 00:09:00.610
-yard line. Now it's at the 35 -yard line. Oh.

00:09:01.049 --> 00:09:04.570
Yeah, so you're going to see more scoring. That's

00:09:04.570 --> 00:09:06.970
interesting because I had read something about

00:09:06.970 --> 00:09:09.330
them wanting to change that because so many teams

00:09:09.330 --> 00:09:11.429
were opting for the touchback because it was

00:09:11.429 --> 00:09:13.490
good field position that it became a dead play

00:09:13.490 --> 00:09:15.490
again. This is going to make it worse. I know.

00:09:15.529 --> 00:09:17.370
Who's going to pay attention to kickoff when

00:09:17.370 --> 00:09:19.169
it's, you know, they kick the ball, they fair

00:09:19.169 --> 00:09:21.350
catch, and they spot it at the 35, and now we

00:09:21.350 --> 00:09:22.950
go to commercial again. I think they figured

00:09:22.950 --> 00:09:25.250
out that a lot of people like scoring. Yeah,

00:09:25.309 --> 00:09:27.750
that's true. So, I mean, I think that's what

00:09:27.750 --> 00:09:31.149
it is. And they'll tweak it again, too. And then

00:09:31.149 --> 00:09:33.309
the other big rule is now the footballs are going

00:09:33.309 --> 00:09:36.029
to contain a computer chip, and they will tell

00:09:36.029 --> 00:09:37.970
you exactly where the football is so there's

00:09:37.970 --> 00:09:40.490
no more whining. Yeah. And we know who they are.

00:09:41.250 --> 00:09:46.039
Yes. We got that guy. They didn't spot the ball

00:09:46.039 --> 00:09:48.659
right. Yeah, and that's such the easiest thing

00:09:48.659 --> 00:09:50.919
to say, too. And like it's the first time that's

00:09:50.919 --> 00:09:52.919
ever happened in the history of pro football.

00:09:52.919 --> 00:09:55.600
I know. Amazing. Yeah, I like the human element,

00:09:55.700 --> 00:09:58.159
you know. So, all right, they missed one. But

00:09:58.159 --> 00:09:59.799
I'm not even saying they missed one. I don't

00:09:59.799 --> 00:10:02.059
think they missed that one against the Bills.

00:10:02.299 --> 00:10:05.200
There was no clear -cut evidence showing that

00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:07.659
Josh Allen was over the line. No clear -cut.

00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:10.179
It has to be clear -cut. Yeah, if you've watched

00:10:10.179 --> 00:10:13.039
TV for like, I don't know, any portion of your

00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:16.000
life, you realize that camera angle tells everything.

00:10:16.340 --> 00:10:19.320
Yes. If they show this camera angle, and you're

00:10:19.320 --> 00:10:20.980
like, oh my God, it was over the line. Then they

00:10:20.980 --> 00:10:22.980
show that camera angle, oh, it's not over the

00:10:22.980 --> 00:10:24.759
line. It's just whichever angle they want to

00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:29.340
show you. Yeah, yeah. And so the whole thing

00:10:29.340 --> 00:10:32.039
about, oh, they ripped us off, is not valid.

00:10:32.509 --> 00:10:34.730
Because there's no way it could be proven and

00:10:34.730 --> 00:10:37.149
it's always been like this and always will be

00:10:37.149 --> 00:10:39.710
like that. If you cannot prove it, it can't be

00:10:39.710 --> 00:10:42.029
overturned. It's got to be clear -cut evidence

00:10:42.029 --> 00:10:44.669
that that's what happened like a fumble. They

00:10:44.669 --> 00:10:46.629
have to have clear -cut evidence that the guy's

00:10:46.629 --> 00:10:49.450
knee wasn't down. And if there's a bunch of bodies

00:10:49.450 --> 00:10:52.269
in there and they couldn't tell, then they can't

00:10:52.269 --> 00:10:54.519
rule it. And like, who recovered the fumble?

00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:57.139
It changes hands Langer 10 times when all these

00:10:57.139 --> 00:10:59.220
bodies are piled on top of each other. They can't

00:10:59.220 --> 00:11:01.559
tell. They do their best guess. Yeah, they can't

00:11:01.559 --> 00:11:03.480
tell. They do their best guess. And that's it.

00:11:04.039 --> 00:11:07.500
And that's part of the game. And if you don't

00:11:07.500 --> 00:11:09.440
like it, I mean, that's just too damn bad, you

00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:11.620
know? Yeah, if you remove all that human element,

00:11:11.700 --> 00:11:13.480
you might as well just have the game simulated

00:11:13.480 --> 00:11:17.899
on a video game console. Yeah. Why not? Why not?

00:11:18.019 --> 00:11:22.110
Yeah. So these people that are asking for something

00:11:22.110 --> 00:11:24.730
different, it doesn't matter because when they

00:11:24.730 --> 00:11:28.710
get jabbed by the new rule, then they're going

00:11:28.710 --> 00:11:31.629
to bitch about it again and go, well, okay, so

00:11:31.629 --> 00:11:34.090
what happens is we're going to have that extra

00:11:34.090 --> 00:11:36.029
quarter and then someone's going to get stiffed

00:11:36.029 --> 00:11:37.350
by it and then they're going to want to go back

00:11:37.350 --> 00:11:39.470
to the other way and go, well, how come we can't

00:11:39.470 --> 00:11:41.230
go back? We would have won this because we scored

00:11:41.230 --> 00:11:43.450
the touchdown first. That's not what you said

00:11:43.450 --> 00:11:45.409
last year. Well, see, that's the brilliant thing

00:11:45.409 --> 00:11:48.049
about the NFL. They can change their rules every

00:11:48.049 --> 00:11:50.639
year if they want to. They decide this year we're

00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:52.460
going to have the rules favoring this type of

00:11:52.460 --> 00:11:55.059
offense and this type of game play. And then

00:11:55.059 --> 00:11:56.600
the next year they're like, eh, let's change

00:11:56.600 --> 00:11:59.120
it to something else. Yeah, yes. They're under

00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:02.419
no obligation to keep the rules consistent. I

00:12:02.419 --> 00:12:05.820
find it funny that every one of these rules are

00:12:05.820 --> 00:12:08.120
a direct result of Mahomes beating somebody.

00:12:10.299 --> 00:12:12.820
That is kind of a recurring theme, isn't it?

00:12:14.889 --> 00:12:17.730
And then the good old people that can't handle

00:12:17.730 --> 00:12:22.230
a dynasty in the Midwest. They cheated. The refs

00:12:22.230 --> 00:12:25.129
are always on their side. You're full of shit.

00:12:25.149 --> 00:12:28.070
I never heard the league office once complain

00:12:28.070 --> 00:12:30.610
about the referee's calls. I never heard the

00:12:30.610 --> 00:12:34.210
gambling institution in Vegas and Atlantic City

00:12:34.210 --> 00:12:36.809
complaining. And if things were being fixed or

00:12:36.809 --> 00:12:39.350
thrown, don't you think the bookies would know

00:12:39.350 --> 00:12:41.870
or object? if it wasn't going in their favor?

00:12:42.009 --> 00:12:44.429
Oh, gosh, yeah. No, the whole thing is just ridiculous.

00:12:44.470 --> 00:12:47.370
Yeah. I mean, the general public is saying, this

00:12:47.370 --> 00:12:49.350
is wrong, this is fixed. The people actually

00:12:49.350 --> 00:12:51.389
doing it are just twiddling their thumbs and

00:12:51.389 --> 00:12:53.889
raking in the money. Yeah, and I think you said

00:12:53.889 --> 00:12:55.289
it first. It's not broken. It's working exactly

00:12:55.289 --> 00:12:58.230
how they designed it to work. I think you're

00:12:58.230 --> 00:12:59.789
the one that said this first, and it makes so

00:12:59.789 --> 00:13:04.889
much sense. Yeah. Okay. All 32 teams. Okay, we're

00:13:04.889 --> 00:13:06.590
going to have the Chiefs win for the next 10

00:13:06.590 --> 00:13:08.509
years. Yeah, we're all just going to give up

00:13:08.509 --> 00:13:10.929
and roll over and let the Chiefs beat us. That

00:13:10.929 --> 00:13:14.429
sounds like a great idea. 31 other competitive,

00:13:14.750 --> 00:13:17.669
highly motivated business owners or business

00:13:17.669 --> 00:13:19.690
owning groups, they're just going to roll over

00:13:19.690 --> 00:13:21.629
and let the league tell them to let the Chiefs

00:13:21.629 --> 00:13:23.730
win? Yeah. I don't think so. No, I don't think

00:13:23.730 --> 00:13:27.809
so either. So, okay, so it's like always, you

00:13:27.809 --> 00:13:31.830
know, losers, weepers. Yeah, people look for

00:13:31.830 --> 00:13:34.769
a reason for something that happened that makes

00:13:34.769 --> 00:13:38.070
it not their fault. Yeah, yes. And also another

00:13:38.070 --> 00:13:42.110
thing is, it's great talk. It's great fucking

00:13:42.110 --> 00:13:45.269
water bottle talk. And it's great for the radio,

00:13:45.470 --> 00:13:48.110
for internet shows, for podcasts, to keep stirring

00:13:48.110 --> 00:13:52.250
up this type of controversy and concern about

00:13:52.250 --> 00:13:54.830
it. It makes money. In sports radio, it used

00:13:54.830 --> 00:13:58.509
to be the Pete Rose rule. So you don't have anything

00:13:58.509 --> 00:14:01.830
going on. It's dead. You just start up the, should

00:14:01.830 --> 00:14:03.509
Pete Rose be in the Hall of Fame? Then you get

00:14:03.509 --> 00:14:06.570
500 calls. Yeah, you bring that one up during

00:14:06.570 --> 00:14:11.610
ratings week. Yes, and that is something nobody

00:14:11.610 --> 00:14:13.970
really gives a fuck about, but everybody has

00:14:13.970 --> 00:14:17.029
an opinion on it. Do you remember the early days

00:14:17.029 --> 00:14:20.570
of call -in radio when people first started getting

00:14:20.570 --> 00:14:24.289
cell phones? Yeah. They would prioritize those

00:14:24.289 --> 00:14:27.029
calls on the radio. Yes. And they would announce

00:14:27.029 --> 00:14:29.309
to you, this is so -and -so calling in on a cellular

00:14:29.309 --> 00:14:33.049
phone. Yes. And the excuse they gave was, well,

00:14:33.129 --> 00:14:34.889
they're paying for their minutes, so we'll try

00:14:34.889 --> 00:14:38.129
to get them on faster. The reality was, is the

00:14:38.129 --> 00:14:40.470
cell phone industry, their advocacy group, was

00:14:40.470 --> 00:14:43.169
paying the radio stations to promote... cell

00:14:43.169 --> 00:14:46.590
phone ownership as fun and cool and a thing you

00:14:46.590 --> 00:14:48.909
want to do. Yeah, look, you can be driving down

00:14:48.909 --> 00:14:51.570
the road and calling and bitch at me. So I'm

00:14:51.570 --> 00:14:53.789
remembering all those times where they said,

00:14:53.870 --> 00:14:56.750
here's Bill from Topeka calling in on a cell

00:14:56.750 --> 00:14:59.629
phone. They were getting paid for every single

00:14:59.629 --> 00:15:02.210
time they did that. I remember Don Fortune doing

00:15:02.210 --> 00:15:05.809
that a lot. Yeah. So it's important also to realize

00:15:05.809 --> 00:15:08.250
that the advertising is everywhere. It's not

00:15:08.250 --> 00:15:10.769
just during the commercial breaks. It's everywhere.

00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:13.720
They could throw away the commercial breaks and

00:15:13.720 --> 00:15:16.399
still make a shit ton off of advertising with

00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:21.159
everything. Yeah. Yeah. No, you're right. Keep

00:15:21.159 --> 00:15:23.879
that in mind when paying for your streaming service.

00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:29.519
Yes. Yes. Well, all right. I'm in a cranky mood

00:15:29.519 --> 00:15:31.639
today. I apologize to all our listeners. I'm

00:15:31.639 --> 00:15:33.179
kind of cranky. I'm going to try to turn it around.

00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:36.919
Well, I mean, getting woke up by thunderstorms

00:15:36.919 --> 00:15:39.059
and all that stuff doesn't help. It doesn't lend

00:15:39.059 --> 00:15:42.820
to it. Yeah. Day two of a migraine. Oh, really?

00:15:43.000 --> 00:15:46.840
Yeah. I'm on my medication, so I'm feeling okay

00:15:46.840 --> 00:15:49.700
now. You're okay? Okay. It still kind of weirds

00:15:49.700 --> 00:15:52.960
me out. Okay. All right. That's cool. Well, and

00:15:52.960 --> 00:15:57.700
also the doom and gloom of the, you know, oh,

00:15:57.779 --> 00:16:00.340
no, no. We got conditions favorable for tornadoes

00:16:00.340 --> 00:16:04.740
at four in the morning. Nice. Nice. Thanks. Yeah.

00:16:05.430 --> 00:16:08.590
So, yeah, I'm going to go to sleep and feel really

00:16:08.590 --> 00:16:11.690
good when I go to sleep now. Thanks. Oh, and

00:16:11.690 --> 00:16:13.429
besides that, if you don't get nailed by a tornado,

00:16:13.509 --> 00:16:15.549
you've got large hail and damaging winds. Yeah.

00:16:15.669 --> 00:16:17.970
Maybe even baseball size. So enjoy. Have a good

00:16:17.970 --> 00:16:20.970
night. What's that Metallica song, Now I Lay

00:16:20.970 --> 00:16:23.470
Me Down to Sleep? Yeah. I pray the Lord my soul

00:16:23.470 --> 00:16:29.070
to keep. A little baby don't say a word. Inner

00:16:29.070 --> 00:16:32.070
Sandman. Inner Sandman, yep. I just heard that

00:16:32.070 --> 00:16:35.230
the other day. Yeah. That would have been a hell

00:16:35.230 --> 00:16:37.470
of a way to do your nighttime prayers, just whip

00:16:37.470 --> 00:16:40.629
out a guitar and start jamming. Hush little baby,

00:16:40.870 --> 00:16:44.070
don't say a word. And that baby will be in therapy

00:16:44.070 --> 00:16:48.809
the rest of its life. Sports show, that's right,

00:16:48.870 --> 00:16:51.490
sports show. Yeah, it's all right. We'll get

00:16:51.490 --> 00:16:54.029
to the music creeds later. Yeah, yeah. But, you

00:16:54.029 --> 00:16:57.090
know, I mean, obviously, you know, it doesn't,

00:16:57.110 --> 00:16:59.429
the downloads are about the same as the rest

00:16:59.429 --> 00:17:01.330
of them. That's good. Evidently, they must not

00:17:01.330 --> 00:17:04.529
care. Yeah. Either that or they put it on to

00:17:04.529 --> 00:17:06.670
go to sleep. Yeah. Or it's the same group of

00:17:06.670 --> 00:17:09.430
people who can't get to their phone to turn it

00:17:09.430 --> 00:17:11.930
off. Yeah. Somebody turned it on to make them

00:17:11.930 --> 00:17:15.049
sad. Yeah, yeah. And it's like, man, I sure wish

00:17:15.049 --> 00:17:17.670
I could get to that phone. I don't want to hear

00:17:17.670 --> 00:17:24.690
it anymore. We give. We give. Okay. Ten cent

00:17:24.690 --> 00:17:31.400
raise. Just turn that shit off. All right. Well,

00:17:31.599 --> 00:17:33.660
do you want to do some more report cards? Yeah,

00:17:33.660 --> 00:17:36.440
sure. All right. Topher, I'll let you begin.

00:17:36.740 --> 00:17:39.420
All right. Well, we all remember what fun the

00:17:39.420 --> 00:17:43.140
New York Jets were last year. We're both a mess.

00:17:43.460 --> 00:17:47.420
Oh, yeah. And then, is he going to Pittsburgh

00:17:47.420 --> 00:17:49.480
or not? Oh, yeah. I wanted to talk about that.

00:17:49.539 --> 00:17:53.660
You know, Aaron Rodgers is doing the coy gimmick

00:17:53.660 --> 00:17:58.119
again. Well, I may retire. I don't know. Maybe

00:17:58.119 --> 00:18:00.779
I'll stay. Trying to raise his price and get

00:18:00.779 --> 00:18:03.359
his perks. Yeah, and I don't think that's happening

00:18:03.359 --> 00:18:05.680
this time. I don't think so. I think people got,

00:18:05.819 --> 00:18:07.500
in the past two years, they've gotten an idea

00:18:07.500 --> 00:18:10.039
of what Aaron Rodgers can do for a team. Not

00:18:10.039 --> 00:18:12.720
as much as you're going to have to pay for. Yeah.

00:18:13.299 --> 00:18:16.240
He's kind of Russell Wilson. It's kind of like,

00:18:16.359 --> 00:18:19.039
hmm, I don't know if he's worth the money. Yeah.

00:18:19.240 --> 00:18:24.140
Yeah, so. Well, I. I got a cut off here of the

00:18:24.140 --> 00:18:25.900
treatment of families, but I think it was about

00:18:25.900 --> 00:18:29.220
a B. You know what? Make it up. It's fine. No

00:18:29.220 --> 00:18:30.539
one knows. Because they said it was all right.

00:18:31.059 --> 00:18:36.220
Okay. They got a B plus in nutrition and diet,

00:18:36.380 --> 00:18:39.420
a B in strength coaches, and a B in head coach.

00:18:40.519 --> 00:18:45.170
Everything else was a C or lower. Okay. So, food

00:18:45.170 --> 00:18:47.849
and dining area was a D minus last year. They

00:18:47.849 --> 00:18:50.289
brought it up to a C minus this year. Oh, God

00:18:50.289 --> 00:18:54.029
bless them. The players rate the taste of the

00:18:54.029 --> 00:18:57.009
team's food at 6 .8 out of 10. That's not very

00:18:57.009 --> 00:19:00.930
good. Freshness at 7 .5 out of 10. That's better.

00:19:01.069 --> 00:19:02.789
So, you know they're getting some mushy grapes

00:19:02.789 --> 00:19:06.329
and brown bananas. They rate their dining areas

00:19:06.329 --> 00:19:10.930
a 7 .28 out of 10, making them 27 out of 32 teams.

00:19:11.089 --> 00:19:14.650
I believe that. Nutrition and dietitian are okay.

00:19:15.349 --> 00:19:20.009
Locker room, D+. Most of that's Aaron Rodgers.

00:19:20.130 --> 00:19:23.730
Yeah. It's amazing. The two teams with the New

00:19:23.730 --> 00:19:28.789
York franchise in their name are crap. And they're

00:19:28.789 --> 00:19:31.029
crap organizations, and they have crap facilities.

00:19:31.289 --> 00:19:33.900
This is New York. I guess nobody really cares

00:19:33.900 --> 00:19:35.880
that much anymore. There's just so many other

00:19:35.880 --> 00:19:38.019
things to do. Like the Los Angeles, there's always

00:19:38.019 --> 00:19:40.400
something else to do. Yeah, and I think that

00:19:40.400 --> 00:19:43.940
is part of the deal why the NFL probably doesn't

00:19:43.940 --> 00:19:46.440
necessarily care as much as they used to. That

00:19:46.440 --> 00:19:49.920
they realize that these other teams are actually

00:19:49.920 --> 00:19:54.099
garnering the underdog status, and they like

00:19:54.099 --> 00:19:58.140
that. Well, 73 % of the players feel they have

00:19:58.140 --> 00:20:00.549
enough room in their individual lockers. So that

00:20:00.549 --> 00:20:06.109
means 17 % or 27 % think they don't. 28 % feel

00:20:06.109 --> 00:20:09.329
their locker room size itself is too small. Okay.

00:20:10.009 --> 00:20:15.589
The training room got a C. Their rankings were

00:20:15.589 --> 00:20:19.150
75 % to 80 % on hot tub space, cold tub space,

00:20:19.529 --> 00:20:21.549
full -time physical therapist. So they're like,

00:20:21.549 --> 00:20:26.670
neat. Training staff is a C. They feel that the

00:20:26.670 --> 00:20:28.869
training staff only slightly contributes to their

00:20:28.869 --> 00:20:33.519
success. And only 74 % of the players feel they

00:20:33.519 --> 00:20:36.420
get enough one -on -one action. Or attention,

00:20:36.660 --> 00:20:41.059
I say, action. I know what you're saying. Weight

00:20:41.059 --> 00:20:45.400
room is a C+. The equipment quality is okay,

00:20:45.500 --> 00:20:47.859
but the weight room itself is way too small.

00:20:48.759 --> 00:20:54.619
Strength coach has got a B. Team travel has got

00:20:54.619 --> 00:20:58.900
a C+. 84 % of the players say they have enough

00:20:58.900 --> 00:21:03.430
room. But pretty much most of the players said,

00:21:03.509 --> 00:21:06.049
our schedule's not efficient. They leave at bad

00:21:06.049 --> 00:21:11.630
times. They arrive at bad times. Let's go into

00:21:11.630 --> 00:21:14.390
that just a second. Do you think that they're

00:21:14.390 --> 00:21:17.150
buying cheaper flights? Yeah. That's what it

00:21:17.150 --> 00:21:19.869
is. I think that for a lot of these team charters,

00:21:19.910 --> 00:21:23.109
some teams own their own plane. Other teams will

00:21:23.109 --> 00:21:26.710
charter a plane. But I think in a lot of the

00:21:26.710 --> 00:21:29.150
cases, they tell the airlines whose facilities

00:21:29.150 --> 00:21:33.690
they're using, work us in whenever, just charge

00:21:33.690 --> 00:21:35.970
us less money per week to park our plane here

00:21:35.970 --> 00:21:38.809
and service it. So if you've got five flights

00:21:38.809 --> 00:21:41.230
that need to go out, you can push us to the back

00:21:41.230 --> 00:21:42.930
of the line. We don't care as long as we get

00:21:42.930 --> 00:21:45.430
the cheaper rate. That's what teams are doing,

00:21:45.490 --> 00:21:47.430
and the players are having to sit around for

00:21:47.430 --> 00:21:49.950
hours waiting for their plane to take off. Because

00:21:49.950 --> 00:21:51.849
once they close the doors and push it back from

00:21:51.849 --> 00:21:54.960
the gate, You're not getting off. No. Not unless

00:21:54.960 --> 00:21:57.500
that plane's on fire. They are not letting you

00:21:57.500 --> 00:22:00.220
off. So you're hostage there for five, six, seven

00:22:00.220 --> 00:22:03.420
hours waiting for clearance to take off. I think

00:22:03.420 --> 00:22:05.079
that's part of what they're talking about of

00:22:05.079 --> 00:22:07.940
inefficient travel. Oh, yeah. Okay. That would

00:22:07.940 --> 00:22:11.200
make sense. I was a hostage on a plane before,

00:22:11.259 --> 00:22:17.460
too, trying to leave DFW. And there was hailstorms

00:22:17.460 --> 00:22:21.690
all around us. Oh. And I'm like, oh, okay, they're

00:22:21.690 --> 00:22:23.930
going to let us back in the airport. No. No.

00:22:26.049 --> 00:22:27.990
They'll make you sit there until the toilets

00:22:27.990 --> 00:22:30.109
overflow and run down the aisles and they won't

00:22:30.109 --> 00:22:31.809
push you back to the gate to let you off. No,

00:22:31.930 --> 00:22:34.009
I know. And we were there for over two hours

00:22:34.009 --> 00:22:36.009
just sitting there. And then when all the weather

00:22:36.009 --> 00:22:39.099
calmed down. Okay, we can go now. I'm like, well,

00:22:39.140 --> 00:22:40.779
I guess I never, you know, I was like thinking,

00:22:40.839 --> 00:22:44.400
oh, I'll get to buy a pizza, get a Coke. Well,

00:22:44.400 --> 00:22:46.700
see, the big thing is if they don't let you off

00:22:46.700 --> 00:22:49.039
the plane, they don't have to refund your money.

00:22:49.079 --> 00:22:51.380
They don't have to give you a voucher. They don't

00:22:51.380 --> 00:22:53.819
have to do anything. If they take you back and

00:22:53.819 --> 00:22:56.740
let you off the plane, now they got to pay. So

00:22:56.740 --> 00:22:58.960
as long as they keep you on that plane, they

00:22:58.960 --> 00:23:00.799
don't have to spend another penny on you. That

00:23:00.799 --> 00:23:03.200
makes sense. That's why they do it. Okay. You

00:23:03.200 --> 00:23:05.200
know, we've always heard these airlines are operating

00:23:05.200 --> 00:23:07.759
on like a. Razor thin profit margin. Well, this

00:23:07.759 --> 00:23:10.819
is part of the way they stay profitable is once

00:23:10.819 --> 00:23:13.200
they have your money, they do everything possible

00:23:13.200 --> 00:23:15.119
to make sure they never have to give any of it

00:23:15.119 --> 00:23:18.380
back. Yeah. Or give you any perks for the inconvenience.

00:23:18.480 --> 00:23:20.099
That's why you're a prisoner on the airplane.

00:23:20.400 --> 00:23:23.359
Yeah. And you know what? I mean, look, I mean,

00:23:23.420 --> 00:23:26.160
I want safe flights above anything. So that's

00:23:26.160 --> 00:23:28.220
what it takes and that's what it takes, you know.

00:23:28.559 --> 00:23:30.319
They need that extra money for a little bit more

00:23:30.319 --> 00:23:32.880
safety. Okay. It's kind of like the school districts

00:23:32.880 --> 00:23:35.859
that won't call a snow day because if the students

00:23:35.859 --> 00:23:37.599
aren't physically there in the building, they

00:23:37.599 --> 00:23:39.539
don't get paid by the federal government for

00:23:39.539 --> 00:23:42.720
that day. Yeah. So they won't call a snow day

00:23:42.720 --> 00:23:44.640
because they need the money. Yeah, that's right.

00:23:44.779 --> 00:23:48.359
Yeah. Okay. That's how things work. Yeah. Okay.

00:23:48.559 --> 00:23:54.529
New York Jets. Owner got an F. You figured, Woody

00:23:54.529 --> 00:23:59.369
Johnson. Moron. Aptly named Johnson. Yes. Letting

00:23:59.369 --> 00:24:01.829
his teenage sons run the team for him because

00:24:01.829 --> 00:24:04.349
of what they see on Madden football and read

00:24:04.349 --> 00:24:08.029
on social media. Normally a story like that is

00:24:08.029 --> 00:24:11.809
a fringe story. Not now. You spend billions on

00:24:11.809 --> 00:24:14.650
a team and you let your kids run it on their

00:24:14.650 --> 00:24:17.589
whim. Yeah. Whatever the hell, man. I don't care.

00:24:18.059 --> 00:24:20.940
I trust you guys. Go ahead. Oh, that player wasn't

00:24:20.940 --> 00:24:23.039
so good in Madden football? Well, we won't sign

00:24:23.039 --> 00:24:26.140
him in real life then. Forget it. We all know

00:24:26.140 --> 00:24:28.980
Madden football is so reliable. Yeah, that's

00:24:28.980 --> 00:24:32.000
why when the head coach was fired last year,

00:24:32.079 --> 00:24:34.460
he said, literally, I'm taking orders from teenagers.

00:24:35.000 --> 00:24:37.319
I remember that. Uh -huh. He was dead serious

00:24:37.319 --> 00:24:40.359
about it. Anyway, okay, so Woody Johnson gets

00:24:40.359 --> 00:24:44.519
a rating of 5 .58 out of 10, ranking him dead

00:24:44.519 --> 00:24:47.670
last. I believe it. That's perceived willingness

00:24:47.670 --> 00:24:51.250
to invest in the facilities. Yeah, I believe

00:24:51.250 --> 00:24:55.230
that. And you know how players feel. They all

00:24:55.230 --> 00:24:57.670
slightly contribute, somewhat contribute to a

00:24:57.670 --> 00:25:00.190
winning attitude or positive team. The players

00:25:00.190 --> 00:25:03.809
feel that Johnson does not contribute to a winning

00:25:03.809 --> 00:25:06.170
attitude and a positive culture. Just flat out

00:25:06.170 --> 00:25:09.210
doesn't. There's no maybe, a little bit, sort

00:25:09.210 --> 00:25:11.609
of. No, they're just dead flat out. So this guy's

00:25:11.609 --> 00:25:17.220
nothing. I got to say, I get it. All the stuff

00:25:17.220 --> 00:25:22.420
that came out, yes. And only enough players agreed

00:25:22.420 --> 00:25:25.200
that he was somewhat committed to building a

00:25:25.200 --> 00:25:27.920
competitive team to only getting him a rank of

00:25:27.920 --> 00:25:32.559
31 out of 32 teams. Wow. Yeah. Okay. It's amazing

00:25:32.559 --> 00:25:34.819
how the league office just lets this happen.

00:25:34.839 --> 00:25:36.940
They're like, eh, we don't care. No, I know.

00:25:37.079 --> 00:25:39.720
Run this New York franchise into the ground.

00:25:40.039 --> 00:25:42.619
If their overall profits are good, then I think

00:25:42.619 --> 00:25:45.079
a lot of it just gets overlooked anyhow. So their

00:25:45.079 --> 00:25:47.819
overall profits are really good. I'm just imagining

00:25:47.819 --> 00:25:50.480
a team in New York that is doing well and everybody

00:25:50.480 --> 00:25:53.759
is enjoying and they sell about three to five

00:25:53.759 --> 00:25:57.079
million jerseys. Yeah. Why wouldn't you want

00:25:57.079 --> 00:25:59.859
to? Why are you letting the Giants and the Jets

00:25:59.859 --> 00:26:04.299
just kind of. muddle around and get by. Yeah.

00:26:04.400 --> 00:26:07.579
I don't know. Yeah. Well, there's things they're

00:26:07.579 --> 00:26:10.259
not telling us. Oh, well, yeah. Look, I mean,

00:26:10.279 --> 00:26:12.900
like I said, the overall profit is really good.

00:26:13.000 --> 00:26:15.160
So a lot of this stuff is they're going to consider

00:26:15.160 --> 00:26:22.380
ancillary, secondary. You know, it's kind of

00:26:22.380 --> 00:26:24.460
like, well, look at this business model. It's

00:26:24.460 --> 00:26:27.140
working, obviously. So we're not going to really

00:26:27.140 --> 00:26:29.589
stress about that too well. That's something

00:26:29.589 --> 00:26:31.470
that the players will have to take up with their

00:26:31.470 --> 00:26:36.029
owners, you know. Yeah. All right. I have the

00:26:36.029 --> 00:26:40.289
Bears. Go Bears. But they're surprisingly in

00:26:40.289 --> 00:26:42.470
the middle. They're number 14 overall ranking.

00:26:43.569 --> 00:26:48.769
And, you know, I mean, the Bears is kind of like

00:26:48.769 --> 00:26:51.470
a combination, and this is not this right here

00:26:51.470 --> 00:26:55.230
related, but there's a combination of the wrong

00:26:55.230 --> 00:27:00.109
management with wrong draft picks. Now they may

00:27:00.109 --> 00:27:02.349
have a right draft pick, and they may have the

00:27:02.349 --> 00:27:04.869
right management, but we don't know because who

00:27:04.869 --> 00:27:07.609
they got in, we'll have to wait and see. But

00:27:07.609 --> 00:27:09.869
at least they're trying. They got Eric Biennemi

00:27:09.869 --> 00:27:13.829
in there, who is used to a winning team. I mean,

00:27:13.829 --> 00:27:15.390
the last couple of years, no, but when he was

00:27:15.390 --> 00:27:17.950
with Kansas City, he had a great deal to do with

00:27:17.950 --> 00:27:20.990
everything, obviously. And he's seasoned very

00:27:20.990 --> 00:27:24.549
well. So I think he has more influence than people

00:27:24.549 --> 00:27:26.799
think. I think that he's like, well, you know,

00:27:26.839 --> 00:27:28.539
I really like this running back, and I kind of

00:27:28.539 --> 00:27:30.319
like this guy right here. I think Caleb Williams

00:27:30.319 --> 00:27:32.160
can do it if we complement him with this and

00:27:32.160 --> 00:27:35.019
this, the play calling. I remember some Chiefs

00:27:35.019 --> 00:27:39.440
players saying that Eric Bien -Ami, they liked

00:27:39.440 --> 00:27:42.519
the way he held the players accountable for what

00:27:42.519 --> 00:27:44.119
they were doing and what they were doing wrong

00:27:44.119 --> 00:27:46.339
in their actions, et cetera, but he did it in

00:27:46.339 --> 00:27:48.680
such a way that you wanted to learn from it and

00:27:48.680 --> 00:27:51.259
get better. It's not like he was yelling at you

00:27:51.259 --> 00:27:54.180
and running you down. When he got to the commanders,

00:27:54.460 --> 00:27:56.240
that's how they took it, and they hated him there

00:27:56.240 --> 00:27:57.980
because they felt like he was picking on them.

00:27:58.079 --> 00:28:00.039
In the Chiefs, it was like, okay, yeah, we get

00:28:00.039 --> 00:28:01.539
what you're saying, and you want this team to

00:28:01.539 --> 00:28:03.920
be better, so okay. And you're also talking about

00:28:03.920 --> 00:28:06.180
a winning culture too. Yeah. A winning culture

00:28:06.180 --> 00:28:08.420
is accountability. That's a big part of it. And

00:28:08.420 --> 00:28:10.400
when the enemy went to the commanders, they still

00:28:10.400 --> 00:28:13.359
had the most toxic owner in all the sports, Daniel

00:28:13.359 --> 00:28:17.980
Snyder. Yeah, that's right. So once he left,

00:28:18.039 --> 00:28:19.839
it was like, you know, the wicked witch dying.

00:28:19.980 --> 00:28:21.619
Yeah, it's like, hey, everything's good now.

00:28:21.779 --> 00:28:26.980
Yes. Okay, they ranked 14th overall, ranking

00:28:26.980 --> 00:28:30.720
the breakdown. Treatment of families, C +, they're

00:28:30.720 --> 00:28:33.640
19th. Room for improvement. Yeah, food and dining

00:28:33.640 --> 00:28:38.299
area, 22nd, a C +, not very well. Nutrition,

00:28:38.319 --> 00:28:41.960
dietician, a B, they're number 19th. Locker room,

00:28:42.039 --> 00:28:44.180
A-, they're 8th, and some of this is cut. Oh,

00:28:44.259 --> 00:28:47.880
maybe it's not. Okay. Weight room, they got an

00:28:47.880 --> 00:28:51.339
A. Nice. They're number six. Strength coaches,

00:28:51.599 --> 00:28:57.019
B plus. They're 20th with a B plus. That means

00:28:57.019 --> 00:28:58.740
there are a lot of teams with really good strength

00:28:58.740 --> 00:29:01.359
coaches. Yeah, and that would figure that they

00:29:01.359 --> 00:29:04.880
would hone in on that, too. Team travel, they

00:29:04.880 --> 00:29:07.180
got a B. They're number 19. But they're also

00:29:07.180 --> 00:29:09.099
in the middle of the country, too. That's true.

00:29:09.420 --> 00:29:12.819
And Chicago. I mean, there's like 10 airports

00:29:12.819 --> 00:29:17.220
there. So if they were anything lower than that,

00:29:17.240 --> 00:29:21.259
I would have serious... I think half the problems

00:29:21.259 --> 00:29:23.480
with travel out of Chicago is because it's just

00:29:23.480 --> 00:29:26.099
so congested. It's not the team's fault or the

00:29:26.099 --> 00:29:27.579
airline's fault. It's just because there are

00:29:27.579 --> 00:29:29.400
so many people in the air. That's why I won't

00:29:29.400 --> 00:29:31.640
take O 'Hare layover. I'll take a Midway Air

00:29:31.640 --> 00:29:36.140
layover, but not O 'Hare. That's not Atlanta

00:29:36.140 --> 00:29:40.279
bad or Denver bad, but it's bad. Alright, head

00:29:40.279 --> 00:29:43.480
coach C. 32nd, but that's going to, you know,

00:29:43.519 --> 00:29:46.519
we'll see. Yeah, the new head coach. Yeah. Ownership,

00:29:46.519 --> 00:29:49.519
A -. They did okay. They've got a new stadium

00:29:49.519 --> 00:29:51.599
coming, too. Yeah, and that's going to help things,

00:29:51.700 --> 00:29:54.319
too. Because with a winning culture, also a new

00:29:54.319 --> 00:29:56.680
stadium definitely helps. Oh, yeah. All right.

00:29:57.000 --> 00:29:59.500
Treatment of families. They've got the C -. Bears

00:29:59.500 --> 00:30:01.880
provide daycare during home games and family

00:30:01.880 --> 00:30:07.470
room during home games. There was one team, their

00:30:07.470 --> 00:30:09.910
family meeting room for after the game was a

00:30:09.910 --> 00:30:12.490
tent in the parking lot. Oh, I know. I can't

00:30:12.490 --> 00:30:14.630
remember which team that was. Who was it? Yeah,

00:30:14.750 --> 00:30:16.650
I mean, you're a multi -billion dollar sports

00:30:16.650 --> 00:30:19.890
franchise, and the team's family gets to go stand

00:30:19.890 --> 00:30:21.069
around in a tent in the parking lot. I can't

00:30:21.069 --> 00:30:23.789
remember who the hell that was now. The ones

00:30:23.789 --> 00:30:26.309
we've already covered I left at home, but I believe

00:30:26.309 --> 00:30:30.109
it was an NFC team. Post -game area, 7 out of

00:30:30.109 --> 00:30:34.799
10. Me? Food, dining area, C+. Taste of the team's

00:30:34.799 --> 00:30:38.799
food is a 7 .6 out of a 10. Freshness of their

00:30:38.799 --> 00:30:43.500
food is a 7 .4 out of a 10. The 7 .4 is 24 out

00:30:43.500 --> 00:30:48.460
of 32 teams. And the 7 .6 of the rate of the

00:30:48.460 --> 00:30:52.819
food is 10 out of a ranking of 23. So that's

00:30:52.819 --> 00:30:59.539
not too bad. Nutritionist, dietician, B. 71 %

00:30:59.539 --> 00:31:01.400
of players reported they get an individualized

00:31:01.400 --> 00:31:05.019
nutrition plan, ranking them 26 out of 32. The

00:31:05.019 --> 00:31:07.099
players believe their dietician is moderately

00:31:07.099 --> 00:31:10.380
accessible, a ranking of 22 out of 32. Moderately

00:31:10.380 --> 00:31:11.960
accessible. Moderately. That's not very good.

00:31:11.960 --> 00:31:14.940
Must not pick up the phone all the time. Must

00:31:14.940 --> 00:31:18.259
be busy. Busy man. Hang on. I've got to check

00:31:18.259 --> 00:31:20.039
this guy's mashed potatoes. I'll be right with

00:31:20.039 --> 00:31:24.480
you. The sodium content's getting a little crazy

00:31:24.480 --> 00:31:26.559
here. Hang on, I'll be back a little bit later.

00:31:26.660 --> 00:31:28.380
I'm going to fly to Idaho and source some better

00:31:28.380 --> 00:31:32.019
potatoes. Yes. I'm checking in the Himalayan

00:31:32.019 --> 00:31:38.019
pink salt. I'll be right back. Locker room, A

00:31:38.019 --> 00:31:41.799
-. Eighth out of 32 teams. It's a shame they'll

00:31:41.799 --> 00:31:43.500
have to leave it behind when they're moving to

00:31:43.500 --> 00:31:47.180
the new stadium. I know. 94 % of players feel

00:31:47.180 --> 00:31:49.460
they have enough room in their individual lockers.

00:31:49.519 --> 00:31:52.420
10 out of 32 is their rank. 100 % of players

00:31:52.420 --> 00:31:55.579
believe locker room size is adequate, making

00:31:55.579 --> 00:31:59.960
Bears one of five teams 100 % with a perfect

00:31:59.960 --> 00:32:02.259
score. Wow. The Chiefs did pretty poorly with

00:32:02.259 --> 00:32:03.579
their locker rooms, as I recall. Yeah, we did.

00:32:04.279 --> 00:32:06.140
Evidently, they bumped elbows quite a bit. Yeah.

00:32:06.200 --> 00:32:08.740
I mean, we've got a stadium that was built in

00:32:08.740 --> 00:32:13.099
1972, so that's, what, 53 years ago? Yeah. So

00:32:13.099 --> 00:32:15.579
there's some basic architecture there they have

00:32:15.579 --> 00:32:18.759
to work around. Well, if we get the stadium in

00:32:18.759 --> 00:32:20.980
Johnson County, you're going to look for a really,

00:32:21.019 --> 00:32:24.220
really high facility. Yeah. I don't think that

00:32:24.220 --> 00:32:28.420
Kansas City can afford it. In a lot of ways,

00:32:28.440 --> 00:32:30.740
I don't think Kansas City should try to afford

00:32:30.740 --> 00:32:34.279
it. If Johnson County slash Overland Park slash

00:32:34.279 --> 00:32:39.079
whatever can afford the stadium and the facilities

00:32:39.079 --> 00:32:42.769
and all that, I don't care. Look, I mean, our

00:32:42.769 --> 00:32:45.289
paved roads are about like gravel roads in certain

00:32:45.289 --> 00:32:48.930
areas. And our crime is out of control. We have

00:32:48.930 --> 00:32:51.549
bigger issues. Absolutely. But we want to keep

00:32:51.549 --> 00:32:53.609
the Chiefs in the Kansas City area, so I think

00:32:53.609 --> 00:32:55.990
it's only the smart thing to do is relinquish

00:32:55.990 --> 00:32:58.809
them to Johnson County. Why not? Yeah. I mean,

00:32:58.849 --> 00:33:00.509
I would love to see the stadium that come up,

00:33:00.549 --> 00:33:02.130
but they're talking about a retractable roof.

00:33:02.230 --> 00:33:05.640
That way we can get a Super Bowl. Yeah. God bless

00:33:05.640 --> 00:33:07.920
them. I hope they get it. It helps when you don't

00:33:07.920 --> 00:33:10.579
define your manhood based on whether you have

00:33:10.579 --> 00:33:13.980
an NFL team in your city. Yeah. That really helps.

00:33:14.059 --> 00:33:17.299
Yeah, it does. If you don't do that. Yes. And

00:33:17.299 --> 00:33:22.680
right now, if a city was to get rid of a team

00:33:22.680 --> 00:33:25.839
so successful in a dynasty, that would be horrendous.

00:33:25.900 --> 00:33:28.059
Yeah. That would probably be one of the dumbest

00:33:28.059 --> 00:33:30.640
things ever done by a city. Yeah. But we've been

00:33:30.640 --> 00:33:33.079
pretty good about doing dumb things. Yeah. All

00:33:33.079 --> 00:33:37.799
right. Training room, it got cut off, but 86

00:33:37.799 --> 00:33:40.259
% of Bears players feel they have enough full

00:33:40.259 --> 00:33:44.099
-time trainers, so 19 out of 32. 84 % of players

00:33:44.099 --> 00:33:46.200
feel they have enough full -time physical therapists,

00:33:46.339 --> 00:33:49.960
ranking them 18 out of 32. Probably a B range

00:33:49.960 --> 00:33:52.259
group. Yeah, they have enough hot tub space,

00:33:52.460 --> 00:33:55.799
4 out of 32. And the Bears have one of four teams

00:33:55.799 --> 00:33:59.019
with a perfect score about cold tub space. So,

00:33:59.059 --> 00:34:02.819
evidently, they have a lot of ice. Yeah, go chip

00:34:02.819 --> 00:34:05.000
some chunks of ice out of Lake Michigan and bring

00:34:05.000 --> 00:34:07.339
them into the locker room. This one's got a carp

00:34:07.339 --> 00:34:10.360
in it. They have trucks that do that. This one's

00:34:10.360 --> 00:34:12.619
got a chunk of the Edmund Fitzgerald in it. Hey,

00:34:12.920 --> 00:34:15.719
let that thing melt a little bit. Let's get that

00:34:15.719 --> 00:34:18.119
out of there and then chunk it up. Oh wait, wrong

00:34:18.119 --> 00:34:21.619
lake. It wasn't Michigan. Does that look like

00:34:21.619 --> 00:34:26.739
sewage? Oh, they must have went to Joliet. Let's

00:34:26.739 --> 00:34:28.840
hope that that's just a freeze -dried burrito.

00:34:32.349 --> 00:34:35.769
All right. Training staff is a B. That looks

00:34:35.769 --> 00:34:38.130
especially like a cornback rattler. I don't know.

00:34:41.110 --> 00:34:44.610
Don't lick it. No, Virginia, you must not put

00:34:44.610 --> 00:34:48.710
your lips upon it. All right. Training staff,

00:34:48.869 --> 00:34:54.469
B. 17th out of 32 teams. 85 % of Bears players

00:34:54.469 --> 00:34:57.389
receive enough one -on -one training, ranking

00:34:57.389 --> 00:35:00.739
them 20 out of 32. Players feel the training

00:35:00.739 --> 00:35:02.800
staff's moderate lead contributes to their overall

00:35:02.800 --> 00:35:07.079
success, 13 out of 32. Weight room, they got

00:35:07.079 --> 00:35:10.679
an A. The players report the weight room equipment

00:35:10.679 --> 00:35:13.559
is high quality, ranking them 7 out of 32 teams.

00:35:14.079 --> 00:35:16.420
The players feel they have more than enough space

00:35:16.420 --> 00:35:19.460
in their weight room, a ranking out of 6 out

00:35:19.460 --> 00:35:24.139
of 32. Strength coaches B +, 20th out of 32 teams.

00:35:24.559 --> 00:35:27.559
98 % of players report that they get individualized

00:35:27.559 --> 00:35:32.949
training. Training plan, 6 out of 32. And the

00:35:32.949 --> 00:35:34.929
players feel their strength coaches moderately

00:35:34.929 --> 00:35:37.829
contribute to their overall success, 26 out of

00:35:37.829 --> 00:35:44.289
32. Not very well, but yeah. I'm not sure what

00:35:44.289 --> 00:35:47.789
this B is about. It's kind of off. Team travel.

00:35:47.969 --> 00:35:49.590
Oh, okay. It's right after strength coaches.

00:35:49.690 --> 00:35:52.650
Okay, thank you. 84 % of Bears feel they have

00:35:52.650 --> 00:35:54.409
a comfortable amount of personal space on team

00:35:54.409 --> 00:35:57.320
flight, 22 out of 32. The players feel their

00:35:57.320 --> 00:35:59.079
team's travel schedule is somewhat efficient,

00:35:59.219 --> 00:36:01.920
ranking them 6 out of 32, but we also stated

00:36:01.920 --> 00:36:03.659
they have two hubs and they're in the middle

00:36:03.659 --> 00:36:06.639
of the country, so they should do well. Head

00:36:06.639 --> 00:36:09.800
coach, C. I'm not even going to read that because

00:36:09.800 --> 00:36:15.179
he's gone. They got a new one. All right, what

00:36:15.179 --> 00:36:17.719
is the next one up there after head coach? Ownership.

00:36:17.940 --> 00:36:20.360
Okay, ownership. The McCaskey family's average,

00:36:20.440 --> 00:36:23.380
they got an A-, rating for perceived willingness,

00:36:23.539 --> 00:36:26.980
and that is 13th out of 32 teams. Their willingness

00:36:26.980 --> 00:36:31.800
to invest in facilities, 9 .3 out of 10. The

00:36:31.800 --> 00:36:34.619
Bears players are ranking at 14 out of 32 owners

00:36:34.619 --> 00:36:36.840
in the league. And that's a turnaround because

00:36:36.840 --> 00:36:40.320
I remember in the 80s, the Bears ownership was

00:36:40.320 --> 00:36:42.920
considered to be pretty much hands -off and didn't

00:36:42.920 --> 00:36:44.880
want to invest. Yeah, I remember that. And it

00:36:44.880 --> 00:36:47.300
was still the McCaskies back then. So they've

00:36:47.300 --> 00:36:49.420
made improvements in how much they're willing

00:36:49.420 --> 00:36:52.469
to invest. And it makes sense because... In the

00:36:52.469 --> 00:36:54.630
80s, you could make a certain amount off an NFL

00:36:54.630 --> 00:36:58.469
franchise. Now you can make way more off of it,

00:36:58.530 --> 00:37:00.829
you know, multiple times as much. So it's a worthwhile

00:37:00.829 --> 00:37:04.170
investment now. And only the idiots are not investing

00:37:04.170 --> 00:37:07.050
in their teams. Yeah. Like Woody Johnson. Like

00:37:07.050 --> 00:37:10.309
Woody Johnson, yeah. And whoever it is that owns

00:37:10.309 --> 00:37:13.190
the Arizona Cardinals. Oh. Who are dead last.

00:37:15.349 --> 00:37:19.349
And it shows. It does show. Well, number one,

00:37:19.409 --> 00:37:21.900
their market. Nobody gives a shit about football

00:37:21.900 --> 00:37:24.599
there. It's such a bad place to put it. They're

00:37:24.599 --> 00:37:26.940
retired and they're in golf carts going around

00:37:26.940 --> 00:37:30.159
their neighborhood. The players feel that McCaskey

00:37:30.159 --> 00:37:32.760
family moderately contributes to a positive team

00:37:32.760 --> 00:37:35.699
culture, ranking them 15 out of 32. So no rah

00:37:35.699 --> 00:37:39.099
-rah from him. No. The players feel McCaskey's

00:37:39.099 --> 00:37:41.199
family is extremely committed to building a competitive

00:37:41.199 --> 00:37:44.179
team and rank 14 out of 32. And I would agree

00:37:44.179 --> 00:37:46.460
with that. They always go for what they think

00:37:46.460 --> 00:37:49.909
is the best pick. They try to hire. the coach

00:37:49.909 --> 00:37:51.929
that they think is the best coach, they really

00:37:51.929 --> 00:37:53.630
don't skimp on that. No, no. They've just been

00:37:53.630 --> 00:37:56.289
hitting it wrong. Yeah. Instead of hitting a

00:37:56.289 --> 00:37:57.929
bullseye, they've been hitting the outer ring

00:37:57.929 --> 00:38:00.710
of 10. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But that's a good way

00:38:00.710 --> 00:38:02.730
to put it. They're trying. They're just not succeeding

00:38:02.730 --> 00:38:04.349
yet, but they're still trying. They're trying

00:38:04.349 --> 00:38:06.389
to do what's best with it, and they'll get it.

00:38:06.530 --> 00:38:07.650
I mean, they'll figure it out. Sooner or later,

00:38:07.809 --> 00:38:11.090
they're going to get that magic potion. They're

00:38:11.090 --> 00:38:13.150
going to figure it out. And it might be this

00:38:13.150 --> 00:38:16.130
year. We'll see. Okay, Chicago Bears overall

00:38:16.130 --> 00:38:22.099
ranking 20 -25. Yeah. This is 14, and it doesn't

00:38:22.099 --> 00:38:25.840
tell what... Yeah, this is pretty much the end

00:38:25.840 --> 00:38:29.260
of this. Cut a bunch of stuff off. Where's the

00:38:29.260 --> 00:38:32.960
gun pile? I'm just grabbing it over here. Oh,

00:38:32.960 --> 00:38:35.420
okay. You just turn them upside down. I've got

00:38:35.420 --> 00:38:37.920
the Tampa Bay Buccaneers up next. By the way,

00:38:38.000 --> 00:38:41.440
how many stacks of paper, computer paper, did

00:38:41.440 --> 00:38:44.780
you use on these things? 32 teams. It was about

00:38:44.780 --> 00:38:49.159
11 pages per, so... About 400 pages. 400 pages.

00:38:49.239 --> 00:38:52.519
Okay, so that's about half of a stack of paper.

00:38:52.699 --> 00:38:56.219
Yeah, I had to go in there and feed the printer

00:38:56.219 --> 00:38:58.360
several times. Oh, me too. I hate it. Then he

00:38:58.360 --> 00:39:00.699
gets that error. It's like, hey, I got nothing.

00:39:00.760 --> 00:39:04.159
Oh, shit. Hang on, hang on. Mine flashes a red

00:39:04.159 --> 00:39:06.679
light and just kind of stares at me. Yeah. Hey.

00:39:07.679 --> 00:39:13.460
So, anyhow. Buccaneers. Let's see. The good side

00:39:13.460 --> 00:39:16.760
is... They consistently highlight the support

00:39:16.760 --> 00:39:19.420
staff and the strength coaches who always earn

00:39:19.420 --> 00:39:22.199
high grades. This time they got a year, an A.

00:39:23.360 --> 00:39:26.320
The team improved its treatment of players' families

00:39:26.320 --> 00:39:30.480
from an F to a C -. And the big change they made

00:39:30.480 --> 00:39:34.119
is the year before, they were charging players

00:39:34.119 --> 00:39:38.159
daycare for their kids. Now they stopped charging

00:39:38.159 --> 00:39:41.039
by the child for daycare. God, I would think.

00:39:41.139 --> 00:39:46.489
That is just, yeah. You watch your owner drive

00:39:46.489 --> 00:39:51.250
up in this half a million dollar car and he can't

00:39:51.250 --> 00:39:53.750
pay for your kid's daycare while you go to work

00:39:53.750 --> 00:39:57.869
and earn him money. Think of all the money that

00:39:57.869 --> 00:40:00.289
you make this person and then they charge you

00:40:00.289 --> 00:40:02.789
for daycare. I'd be like, I don't know about

00:40:02.789 --> 00:40:04.730
this. You might as well charge them for the water

00:40:04.730 --> 00:40:07.969
they drink out of the water fountain. Yeah. Anyway,

00:40:08.070 --> 00:40:09.710
that was enough to bring them from an F to a

00:40:09.710 --> 00:40:12.369
C -. It was just they quit charging him for daycare.

00:40:12.760 --> 00:40:15.639
Yeah. But they still want better food quality,

00:40:15.760 --> 00:40:18.440
more variety in the cafeteria. Another major

00:40:18.440 --> 00:40:22.900
concern is locker room cleanliness. Oh. 44 %

00:40:22.900 --> 00:40:25.880
of players report ongoing plumbing issues and

00:40:25.880 --> 00:40:28.820
persistent bad odors in the locker room. That's

00:40:28.820 --> 00:40:32.019
not good. This is an NFL franchise that recently

00:40:32.019 --> 00:40:34.920
won a Super Bowl. Yeah. And they have a locker

00:40:34.920 --> 00:40:39.400
room that smells like a campground toilet. Well,

00:40:39.480 --> 00:40:41.500
part of that Raymond James Stadium is a dump.

00:40:41.760 --> 00:40:46.179
It is. It's awful. It's just bad. So food and

00:40:46.179 --> 00:40:48.619
dining, daycare, etc. They've got a good score

00:40:48.619 --> 00:40:50.659
in training staff and weight room. B, strength

00:40:50.659 --> 00:40:54.900
coaches, A. So we'll skip ahead to team travel.

00:40:56.739 --> 00:41:00.860
They've got a C-, which is odd because you'd

00:41:00.860 --> 00:41:02.380
think there'd be a lot of flights in and out

00:41:02.380 --> 00:41:06.119
of Tampa. Yeah, but they say only 65 % of the

00:41:06.119 --> 00:41:07.860
players believe they have enough personal space

00:41:07.860 --> 00:41:10.699
on the flight itself. Wow. And they rank the

00:41:10.699 --> 00:41:13.059
team's travel schedule as somewhat efficient.

00:41:14.579 --> 00:41:18.599
Head coach got a B+. They say he's receptive

00:41:18.599 --> 00:41:21.000
to locker room feedback, efficient with their

00:41:21.000 --> 00:41:25.019
time. He reserves a perfect score, one of six

00:41:25.019 --> 00:41:29.500
coaches across the league. Wow. Okay. But ownership

00:41:29.500 --> 00:41:35.619
is a D+. The Glazer family's average rating for

00:41:35.619 --> 00:41:37.760
perceived willingness to invest in the facilities

00:41:37.760 --> 00:41:41.980
is 6 .5 out of 10. Wow, I thought it'd be a little

00:41:41.980 --> 00:41:44.780
bit higher than that, but okay. Yeah. I think

00:41:44.780 --> 00:41:48.250
if they would get a new stadium... That would

00:41:48.250 --> 00:41:50.710
go a long way towards fixing that score. I think

00:41:50.710 --> 00:41:53.889
you're right. Exactly. Ray J is a dump, and it's

00:41:53.889 --> 00:41:55.610
been proven to be a dump, and it's been around

00:41:55.610 --> 00:41:57.769
for a long time, and they do. They need to come

00:41:57.769 --> 00:42:00.869
up with another facility. Yep. But I think them

00:42:00.869 --> 00:42:04.550
and Tampa are at a standstill right now. Yeah.

00:42:04.769 --> 00:42:07.429
And I don't think St. Petersburg has enough money.

00:42:09.309 --> 00:42:11.250
So it's going to be interesting to see what happens.

00:42:11.289 --> 00:42:12.829
I don't think they're going to leave the area.

00:42:13.309 --> 00:42:16.530
But they've got some finagling to do. They've

00:42:16.530 --> 00:42:19.809
got to figure this shit out. All right, because

00:42:19.809 --> 00:42:21.349
they're not going to continue to play there.

00:42:21.429 --> 00:42:22.889
That's all there is to it. I mean, they're going

00:42:22.889 --> 00:42:26.389
to have to get out of there. Madden football

00:42:26.389 --> 00:42:28.610
has nothing to do with real life, but when you

00:42:28.610 --> 00:42:31.630
fire up the game and you're in owner mode, there

00:42:31.630 --> 00:42:34.030
are certain teams that you can move the team

00:42:34.030 --> 00:42:37.340
right away. The stadium is so bad, and Tampa

00:42:37.340 --> 00:42:39.800
Bay's been hitting that list for several years

00:42:39.800 --> 00:42:43.340
now. I can believe that. Washington was another

00:42:43.340 --> 00:42:46.239
one. Oh, yeah, that's an old stadium. The problem

00:42:46.239 --> 00:42:48.139
with Washington is I think they'd have to do

00:42:48.139 --> 00:42:49.980
it in the offseason. There's no room up there,

00:42:50.119 --> 00:42:53.119
none at all. They'd have to tear down the existing

00:42:53.119 --> 00:42:55.400
one and then put up one right there. Yeah, it'd

00:42:55.400 --> 00:42:56.940
be the thing where they'd have to play a year

00:42:56.940 --> 00:42:59.699
somewhere else, like a nearby college stadium

00:42:59.699 --> 00:43:02.159
or something. Unless they go way out in the bird

00:43:02.159 --> 00:43:03.960
somewhere. That's the way it's going to have

00:43:03.960 --> 00:43:09.599
to be is that. All right, Baltimore Ravens, 13th

00:43:09.599 --> 00:43:14.519
out of 32 teams. Top half. Yeah. All right, once

00:43:14.519 --> 00:43:16.300
again, Baltimore Ravens finish in the middle

00:43:16.300 --> 00:43:20.059
of the pack. No significant weaknesses. Treatment

00:43:20.059 --> 00:43:24.400
of family, C +, that's 17th. Food, dining area,

00:43:24.559 --> 00:43:28.820
B, that's 14th. Nutritionist, dietician, B, that's

00:43:28.820 --> 00:43:33.739
20th. Let me get this page here that's kind of

00:43:33.739 --> 00:43:38.960
stuck together. Okay. Training staff, B-, that's

00:43:38.960 --> 00:43:44.400
22nd. Yeah. Weight room, B +, that's 15th. Strength

00:43:44.400 --> 00:43:49.300
coaches, B +, that's 22nd. Team travel, A-, and

00:43:49.300 --> 00:43:51.380
they're on a coast. Yeah. That's pretty good,

00:43:51.519 --> 00:43:57.900
11th. Head coach, a B, they're 28th. So John

00:43:57.900 --> 00:44:00.260
Harbaugh is kind of, I don't know, man. They're

00:44:00.260 --> 00:44:02.460
not, like, really that favorable of them. It's

00:44:02.460 --> 00:44:07.039
28. Wow. I mean, but it is a B score, so. Yeah,

00:44:07.099 --> 00:44:10.860
that shows that most of the coaches are getting

00:44:10.860 --> 00:44:14.920
a B. Yeah. Yeah, so, yeah, most of them are.

00:44:15.340 --> 00:44:19.000
And ownership is an A, and they're ranked ninth.

00:44:19.139 --> 00:44:22.420
So that's pretty good. Okay, treatment of families

00:44:22.420 --> 00:44:26.929
is C+. It's cut off, so I don't know quite why

00:44:26.929 --> 00:44:33.409
it's a C+. They organize family events several

00:44:33.409 --> 00:44:36.309
times a year, ranking 21 out of 32. Postgame

00:44:36.309 --> 00:44:40.150
is rated 7 .6 out of 10. Players express a desire

00:44:40.150 --> 00:44:42.250
for better, more direct communication between

00:44:42.250 --> 00:44:45.090
the team and their families. All right, food

00:44:45.090 --> 00:44:47.849
and dining area, they have a B. They're 14th

00:44:47.849 --> 00:44:52.030
out of 32nd. The Ravens ranked the taste of their

00:44:52.030 --> 00:44:57.289
food 8 .16 out of 10 and 16 out of 32 ranking.

00:44:57.929 --> 00:45:03.530
Wow. You would not necessarily keep going back

00:45:03.530 --> 00:45:06.010
to a restaurant that only was like 8 to 8 .5

00:45:06.010 --> 00:45:08.590
out of 10. No, no, no, no. That would be like,

00:45:08.590 --> 00:45:10.949
oh, they were okay. Yeah. That wouldn't be like

00:45:10.949 --> 00:45:12.050
they were horrible. It would be like they were

00:45:12.050 --> 00:45:14.030
okay. Yeah. That's really it. I mean, it's like,

00:45:14.090 --> 00:45:17.469
yeah. They rate the freshness of their food 8.

00:45:17.739 --> 00:45:21.679
8 .50 out of the 10. 14 out of 32nd, which isn't

00:45:21.679 --> 00:45:24.579
that good. The players rate their dining area

00:45:24.579 --> 00:45:28.079
8 .6 out of 10. That is number 16 out of 32.

00:45:29.320 --> 00:45:32.659
Nutritionists and dieticians, 20th out of 32

00:45:32.659 --> 00:45:36.760
teams. 81 % of the players say they get individualized

00:45:36.760 --> 00:45:40.380
nutrition plans. That's 21 out of 32. The players

00:45:40.380 --> 00:45:42.860
believe their team's dietician is very accessible.

00:45:43.039 --> 00:45:48.460
21 out of 32. Again. Locker room, B minus. That's

00:45:48.460 --> 00:45:52.900
17th out of 32 teams. 68 % of players feel they

00:45:52.900 --> 00:45:55.280
have enough room in their individual lockers,

00:45:55.320 --> 00:46:00.500
a ranking of 26 out of 32. 87 % of players believe

00:46:00.500 --> 00:46:02.420
the locker room size is adequate, ranking the

00:46:02.420 --> 00:46:07.000
Ravens 18 out of 32 again. They're not doing

00:46:07.000 --> 00:46:10.440
bad. No, they're doing okay. They're better in

00:46:10.440 --> 00:46:14.550
the middle of the pack, mostly. All right. What

00:46:14.550 --> 00:46:17.610
is the next one? Because this is cut off. After

00:46:17.610 --> 00:46:21.670
food and dining. Training room. Training room

00:46:21.670 --> 00:46:28.150
is training staff. Okay. Oh, wait. You said weight

00:46:28.150 --> 00:46:33.090
room. Training room. Training room. Okay. Training

00:46:33.090 --> 00:46:38.739
staff. Okay. 92 % of Ravens feel they have enough

00:46:38.739 --> 00:46:40.860
full -time trainers, ranking them 12 out of 32.

00:46:41.460 --> 00:46:44.320
93 % of players feel they have enough full -time

00:46:44.320 --> 00:46:48.300
physical therapists, a rank 4 out of 32. 73 %

00:46:48.300 --> 00:46:50.099
of players feel they have enough hot tub space,

00:46:50.300 --> 00:46:54.420
ranking them 23 out of 32. 75 % of players feel

00:46:54.420 --> 00:46:57.000
they have enough cold tub space, a rank of 24

00:46:57.000 --> 00:47:03.659
out of 32. Yeah, not very well there. Training

00:47:03.659 --> 00:47:09.769
staff, a B -. 87 % of the Ravens players responded

00:47:09.769 --> 00:47:11.989
that they receive enough one -on -one training,

00:47:12.190 --> 00:47:15.449
ranking them 18 out of 32. The players feel their

00:47:15.449 --> 00:47:17.570
training staff slightly contributes to their

00:47:17.570 --> 00:47:20.889
overall success, ranking them 28 out of 32. Slightly

00:47:20.889 --> 00:47:22.429
is not very good. Slightly is not very good.

00:47:22.570 --> 00:47:25.469
Yeah. And what is the next one after that? After

00:47:25.469 --> 00:47:32.170
training staff? Yes. Feels. I'll find a better

00:47:32.170 --> 00:47:35.199
website next year. Oh, well. Weight room. We're

00:47:35.199 --> 00:47:38.920
getting the point across, I believe. Okay, B

00:47:38.920 --> 00:47:41.719
+, 15th out of 32 teams. The players can leave

00:47:41.719 --> 00:47:43.659
their weight room equipment. Quality is good,

00:47:43.980 --> 00:47:47.260
15 out of 32. The players feel they have adequate

00:47:47.260 --> 00:47:51.159
space in their weight room, 12 out of 32. Strength

00:47:51.159 --> 00:47:56.119
coaches, B +, 22nd out of 32 teams. 91 % of players

00:47:56.119 --> 00:47:58.460
think they get an individualized training plan.

00:47:59.079 --> 00:48:01.539
From the strength coach, 22 out of 32, which

00:48:01.539 --> 00:48:04.260
isn't bad. The Ravens players feel they have

00:48:04.260 --> 00:48:06.519
the strength coaches moderately contribute to

00:48:06.519 --> 00:48:11.519
their overall success, 20 out of 32. The next

00:48:11.519 --> 00:48:18.000
one. Team travel. 95%. They got an A-, 11th out

00:48:18.000 --> 00:48:20.860
of 32, 95%. The Ravens feel they have a comfortable

00:48:20.860 --> 00:48:23.599
amount of personal space on team flights, ranking

00:48:23.599 --> 00:48:26.440
them 7 out of 32, which is good. Again, you're

00:48:26.440 --> 00:48:29.099
not too far from D .C., and there's like... 500

00:48:29.099 --> 00:48:32.079
airports in that area. Yeah, that's true. They

00:48:32.079 --> 00:48:33.940
could go out as a small one and probably get

00:48:33.940 --> 00:48:37.360
out in 10 minutes. The players believe their

00:48:37.360 --> 00:48:39.320
team's travel schedule is somewhat efficient

00:48:39.320 --> 00:48:44.619
and rank 14 out of 32 teams. Older players appreciate

00:48:44.619 --> 00:48:46.679
their head coach allows them to stay at home

00:48:46.679 --> 00:48:48.820
before the home games instead of sleeping at

00:48:48.820 --> 00:48:51.860
the team hotel. Nice. That is good. I remember

00:48:51.860 --> 00:48:54.570
the Chiefs... Pre -game hotel for home games.

00:48:54.710 --> 00:48:56.809
They ranked it as really awful. Oh, I remember

00:48:56.809 --> 00:48:58.769
that. And we're like thinking it's like the one

00:48:58.769 --> 00:49:00.530
right next to Arrowhead, that run -down piece

00:49:00.530 --> 00:49:05.789
of crap. Yeah. Okay. Head coach, B. 75 % of the

00:49:05.789 --> 00:49:07.789
Ravens players feel their head coach, John Harbaugh,

00:49:07.869 --> 00:49:10.769
is efficient with their time. A rank 28 out of

00:49:10.769 --> 00:49:13.530
32. And players feel that Harbaugh is moderately

00:49:13.530 --> 00:49:15.650
receptable to feedback from the locker room.

00:49:15.670 --> 00:49:19.050
Moderately. 25 out of 32. So he doesn't listen

00:49:19.050 --> 00:49:21.929
very well. Nah. Yeah, he seems headstrong. Yeah.

00:49:23.210 --> 00:49:27.349
What's the next one? Ownership. All right. Owner

00:49:27.349 --> 00:49:33.289
Steve Biscotti. An average perceived willingness.

00:49:33.849 --> 00:49:36.289
I wonder if his family had anything to do with

00:49:36.289 --> 00:49:39.590
those delicious breakfast treats. Could be. Let's

00:49:39.590 --> 00:49:41.550
go dunk him in some hot coffee and see what happens.

00:49:41.730 --> 00:49:45.210
Hey, Biscotti. You know, he got a lot of shit

00:49:45.210 --> 00:49:47.630
going on. Do you think Biscotti was on the Star

00:49:47.630 --> 00:49:50.989
Trek? Yes, I think so. Beam me up, Biscotti.

00:49:53.710 --> 00:49:56.110
You know, he probably heard everything. Oh, I'm

00:49:56.110 --> 00:50:01.010
sure. Yeah. All right. Owner Steve Biscotti's

00:50:01.010 --> 00:50:04.110
average rating for perceived willingness. I think

00:50:04.110 --> 00:50:06.750
he's Italian, maybe. I don't know. Maybe it's

00:50:06.750 --> 00:50:08.329
Steve Buscemi and they just didn't want to say

00:50:08.329 --> 00:50:10.469
it. That's it. Yeah, I read something about that.

00:50:12.269 --> 00:50:15.190
The willingness to invest in facilities is 9

00:50:15.190 --> 00:50:18.929
out of 28 out of 10. Wow. Yeah, that's pretty

00:50:18.929 --> 00:50:21.130
good. So Biscotti's doing something well besides

00:50:21.130 --> 00:50:23.880
dunking in coffee, isn't he? Yeah. A ranking

00:50:23.880 --> 00:50:26.940
9 out of 32 owners in the league, so he did all

00:50:26.940 --> 00:50:28.559
right. He must have some pretty good coffee.

00:50:29.380 --> 00:50:32.519
The players filled biscotti significantly contributes

00:50:32.519 --> 00:50:36.179
to a positive team culture. A rank 8 out of 32.

00:50:36.599 --> 00:50:38.519
The rest are more fond of Pop -Tarts. That's

00:50:38.519 --> 00:50:41.679
right. And who doesn't love Pop -Tarts? Oh, really?

00:50:41.900 --> 00:50:44.920
They're delicious little pieces of toast from

00:50:44.920 --> 00:50:47.039
heaven. There's only a few of them that are non

00:50:47.039 --> 00:50:49.940
-dairy that I can eat. Yeah, I'm sorry. If I

00:50:49.940 --> 00:50:51.940
buy a box, I eat the whole thing all at once,

00:50:51.980 --> 00:50:53.460
so I just don't buy them. You know what? I don't

00:50:53.460 --> 00:50:55.239
blame you. They're damn good, aren't they? Yes.

00:50:56.280 --> 00:50:58.199
And the fact that you can throw them in a toaster

00:50:58.199 --> 00:51:02.860
and they pop out delicious is amazing. Hey, I'm

00:51:02.860 --> 00:51:05.079
old enough. I remember Pop -Tarts before they

00:51:05.079 --> 00:51:08.880
were frosted. And you talk one dry, cardboard

00:51:08.880 --> 00:51:12.400
-tasting piece of crap. I think I remember that.

00:51:12.539 --> 00:51:15.559
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Those were awful. Those were

00:51:15.559 --> 00:51:19.559
so bad. Especially the off -brand ones my parents

00:51:19.559 --> 00:51:21.659
would buy. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's just like

00:51:21.659 --> 00:51:25.340
the off -brand sodas. One was Canfield's, I believe.

00:51:25.480 --> 00:51:27.760
Oh, that shit was horrible. Oh, yeah. We'd go

00:51:27.760 --> 00:51:29.000
to the lake and they're like, hey, let's get

00:51:29.000 --> 00:51:30.960
some orange pop. And I'm like, no, no, no, no.

00:51:30.980 --> 00:51:35.280
Not that one. Oh, no. Oh, no. That was the cheapest.

00:51:35.340 --> 00:51:38.699
Fuck. But you can use that to clean your battery

00:51:38.699 --> 00:51:41.900
terminals. Oh, it did very well. And I hear it

00:51:41.900 --> 00:51:46.559
is effective against the clap. Bull weevil clap

00:51:46.559 --> 00:51:48.440
or just a regular clap? Oh, no, no. Bull weevil

00:51:48.440 --> 00:51:51.139
clap is there. Oh, that's the big stuff. Oh,

00:51:51.159 --> 00:51:53.400
yeah. I've got to retell that story. You know

00:51:53.400 --> 00:51:55.320
that a lot of our podcasts don't exist anymore.

00:51:55.539 --> 00:52:00.519
Oh, gosh. Yeah. It's like last of the second

00:52:00.519 --> 00:52:03.320
season or first of the third season. Yeah, it

00:52:03.320 --> 00:52:06.420
only takes so many on RSS, and all the other

00:52:06.420 --> 00:52:10.960
ones feed off of that. So we probably have, I

00:52:10.960 --> 00:52:14.489
don't know, maybe 60 of them non -existent. Gosh,

00:52:14.489 --> 00:52:16.050
I'll have to go through the archives and see

00:52:16.050 --> 00:52:17.610
if I have any of them. Yeah, what I'd like to

00:52:17.610 --> 00:52:20.590
do is if I could get them all downloaded, I will

00:52:20.590 --> 00:52:22.829
make best ofs in all of them. That way we consolidate,

00:52:22.949 --> 00:52:25.150
and I'll go all the way up to the season that

00:52:25.150 --> 00:52:27.969
we're on. Nice. And then that way they get a

00:52:27.969 --> 00:52:30.650
pretty good idea of everything on there, and

00:52:30.650 --> 00:52:32.309
it's consolidated where it'll fit everything.

00:52:32.329 --> 00:52:34.210
Yeah. We'll have to see if our storm special

00:52:34.210 --> 00:52:37.329
is still up. I think it is because it's got its

00:52:37.329 --> 00:52:39.670
own little section. I hope so because, man, that

00:52:39.670 --> 00:52:41.550
thing is excellent. I can repost that one. I

00:52:41.550 --> 00:52:44.139
got that one. Okay. All right. The player's field,

00:52:44.239 --> 00:52:46.460
Biscotti, is extremely committed to building

00:52:46.460 --> 00:52:49.019
a competitive team. I rank 9 out of 32 teams.

00:52:50.199 --> 00:52:54.500
And the overall ranking is not on there. Okay.

00:52:55.599 --> 00:52:58.079
That is all I have with this one. All right.

00:52:58.760 --> 00:53:00.579
Yeah, the rest, I don't know what it's saying.

00:53:00.639 --> 00:53:04.340
It's just like ancillary crap. Yeah. Well, I'm

00:53:04.340 --> 00:53:07.889
going to do two kind of together because... They

00:53:07.889 --> 00:53:10.469
both mostly have good ratings, but one or two

00:53:10.469 --> 00:53:13.170
bad ones. Okay. The first one is the Broncos.

00:53:14.369 --> 00:53:18.230
They had an overall ranking of 17. And they got

00:53:18.230 --> 00:53:22.090
A's and B's in everything except treatment of

00:53:22.090 --> 00:53:26.710
families. And they got a C - there. And the big

00:53:26.710 --> 00:53:29.630
reason is they're another team where their post

00:53:29.630 --> 00:53:32.030
-game family area is out in the parking lot,

00:53:32.170 --> 00:53:35.690
regardless of the weather. I still cannot believe

00:53:35.690 --> 00:53:40.719
that they do that. Cheap -ass motherfucker. The

00:53:40.719 --> 00:53:45.059
players are constantly harping on this. In Denver,

00:53:45.119 --> 00:53:47.480
during the early season, it's damn hot out in

00:53:47.480 --> 00:53:49.699
that parking lot. In the late season, it's frickin'

00:53:49.699 --> 00:53:52.519
cold and snowy and icy. In Denver, all of them.

00:53:52.519 --> 00:53:54.320
And the players and their families have to go

00:53:54.320 --> 00:53:57.079
stand in a tent in the parking lot for their

00:53:57.079 --> 00:54:01.420
postgame. Jeez. Because Denver's cheap. Man,

00:54:01.420 --> 00:54:03.539
no wonder they've been having problems landing

00:54:03.539 --> 00:54:05.679
free agents. Everything else on the report card

00:54:05.679 --> 00:54:08.880
is A's and B's. But treatment of family is crap.

00:54:09.400 --> 00:54:11.559
That's horrible. So I guess if you're a young

00:54:11.559 --> 00:54:15.400
single guy with no kids, Denver's a fine place

00:54:15.400 --> 00:54:17.440
to play. But if you've got a family you care

00:54:17.440 --> 00:54:21.559
about, no. Wow. And the second one's the Tennessee

00:54:21.559 --> 00:54:23.480
Titans, who are ranked just above them in the

00:54:23.480 --> 00:54:28.320
16th. Again, B's and A's in just about everything.

00:54:29.710 --> 00:54:32.269
But the reason that they turned it around, the

00:54:32.269 --> 00:54:37.309
biggest change was they hired Ainsley Moore as

00:54:37.309 --> 00:54:39.829
director of player and family affairs. They boosted

00:54:39.829 --> 00:54:42.010
their family treatment grade from a D -plus to

00:54:42.010 --> 00:54:45.349
a B -plus. That's good. And they jumped their

00:54:45.349 --> 00:54:48.710
team travel grade from an F to a B because first

00:54:48.710 --> 00:54:51.550
-year head coach flipped the seating chart and

00:54:51.550 --> 00:54:54.409
said, players, now you get first class. Coaches

00:54:54.409 --> 00:54:56.739
and staff. You're back in economy. I love that.

00:54:56.900 --> 00:54:59.239
Yep. That's great. But up until last year, the

00:54:59.239 --> 00:55:02.260
Titans players had to fly economy while the coaches

00:55:02.260 --> 00:55:05.260
sat in first class. That's such a bad precedent.

00:55:05.260 --> 00:55:07.719
I wouldn't play for a team like that. I would

00:55:07.719 --> 00:55:10.199
not play for a team like that. No. It's like

00:55:10.199 --> 00:55:13.019
I'm sitting out a year, find a place to trade

00:55:13.019 --> 00:55:15.900
me. Wow. Yeah, I would too. I'd be like, no way

00:55:15.900 --> 00:55:20.960
I'm going to that cheap bastard. And then I'm

00:55:20.960 --> 00:55:22.880
trying to go through the last thing. He's just

00:55:22.880 --> 00:55:28.659
hit the highlights. Okay. Report card of the

00:55:28.659 --> 00:55:31.659
Dallas Cowboys. Oh, I can't wait to see what

00:55:31.659 --> 00:55:33.760
they think of their owner. Well, they're 10th

00:55:33.760 --> 00:55:36.320
out of 32 teams, and that's what my hesitation.

00:55:36.400 --> 00:55:38.539
I'm like, am I reading this correct? They're

00:55:38.539 --> 00:55:41.420
overall 10th? Overall 10th. Wow. That's much

00:55:41.420 --> 00:55:44.400
better than I ever thought. Yeah, they should

00:55:44.400 --> 00:55:46.599
have good facilities. Yeah, and Brian Schottenheimer

00:55:46.599 --> 00:55:48.340
is going to do nothing but improve that whole

00:55:48.340 --> 00:55:53.860
thing. Okay. Let me go bet everything I have

00:55:53.860 --> 00:55:58.119
on him. I'm still flabbergasted and befuddled

00:55:58.119 --> 00:56:03.039
and in awe of such a stupid move. It must be

00:56:03.039 --> 00:56:05.559
that Jerry Jones can fit his hand right up the

00:56:05.559 --> 00:56:07.699
back of Brian Schottenheimer's back and move

00:56:07.699 --> 00:56:10.300
his mouth for him with his hand. He blows in

00:56:10.300 --> 00:56:12.019
everything, and Brian Schottenheimer's like,

00:56:12.099 --> 00:56:15.199
okay, okay, because of what did you say? Yeah,

00:56:15.199 --> 00:56:18.000
just like Jerry Jones, tell me what to say. He's

00:56:18.000 --> 00:56:19.900
got his hand up his back moving his mouth like

00:56:19.900 --> 00:56:22.119
a ventriloquist dummy. Yeah, yeah, no clout at

00:56:22.119 --> 00:56:24.869
all, just like him. It's like, I'm Jerry Jones,

00:56:25.010 --> 00:56:26.610
you're Brian Schottenheimer. We know the pecking

00:56:26.610 --> 00:56:29.869
order here, so act as such. Jerry found someone

00:56:29.869 --> 00:56:32.269
who was just happy to be there. And that's him.

00:56:32.610 --> 00:56:36.210
Yep. He'll do whatever Jerry Jones tells him,

00:56:36.230 --> 00:56:39.610
no matter how disastrous it is. They finish this

00:56:39.610 --> 00:56:41.989
season in the top ten, excelling in several areas.

00:56:42.409 --> 00:56:44.469
So we're just going to go right to it. The ranking

00:56:44.469 --> 00:56:49.639
breakdown, food, dining area, B +, 11. Nutrition,

00:56:49.639 --> 00:56:53.079
dietitian, B plus, 17th. Locker room, A, 6th.

00:56:54.059 --> 00:56:58.820
Training room, C, 27th. Training staff, C, 30th.

00:56:59.039 --> 00:57:01.860
Weight room, A minus, 11th. Strength coaches,

00:57:02.039 --> 00:57:05.840
B plus, 18th. Team travel, B minus, 23rd. I would

00:57:05.840 --> 00:57:07.780
have expected it to have been a little bit better

00:57:07.780 --> 00:57:10.559
than 23rd because they are in the middle and

00:57:10.559 --> 00:57:14.320
they have two huge hubs. Yeah. You know, they've

00:57:14.320 --> 00:57:17.480
got Love and they've got DFW, which goes everywhere.

00:57:17.800 --> 00:57:23.039
So, head coach A, they like McCarthy, who isn't

00:57:23.039 --> 00:57:27.860
there anymore. Ownership B, 18th. Oh, McCarthy

00:57:27.860 --> 00:57:32.420
was 14th out of overall. The Cowboys provide

00:57:32.420 --> 00:57:35.760
daycare during home games. Players rate the postgame

00:57:35.760 --> 00:57:39.639
family area 9 out of 5 out of 10. 2 out of 32

00:57:39.639 --> 00:57:44.440
teams. The players feel this team frequently

00:57:44.440 --> 00:57:47.480
organizes family events, which ranks 1 out of

00:57:47.480 --> 00:57:53.460
32 teams. Food and dining area, B+. 8 .26 out

00:57:53.460 --> 00:57:57.900
of 10. 8 .58 out of 10 on the freshness. And

00:57:57.900 --> 00:58:01.679
9 .14 out of 10 players rate the dining area.

00:58:02.360 --> 00:58:07.400
So they got a B +, 17 out of 32 teams. 73 % of

00:58:07.400 --> 00:58:09.559
players report they get individualized nutrition

00:58:09.559 --> 00:58:12.340
plan. The players feel their team dietician is

00:58:12.340 --> 00:58:15.699
very accessible, 9 out of 32. Locker room A,

00:58:15.820 --> 00:58:17.519
I'm leaving some of this out because it really

00:58:17.519 --> 00:58:20.639
doesn't matter. I'm just telling them what they

00:58:20.639 --> 00:58:26.940
think of them. Locker room A, 6 out of 32. 95

00:58:26.940 --> 00:58:28.940
% of players feel they have enough room in their

00:58:28.940 --> 00:58:31.539
individual lockers, a ranking of 8 out of 32,

00:58:31.639 --> 00:58:33.159
and they should. They have that brand new stadium.

00:58:33.179 --> 00:58:35.280
Yeah, who spent the money on that stadium? Yeah,

00:58:35.300 --> 00:58:37.860
so they should. However, center players believe

00:58:37.860 --> 00:58:40.480
the locker room size is adequate, so they did

00:58:40.480 --> 00:58:42.860
that okay, too, making the Cowboys one of five

00:58:42.860 --> 00:58:45.179
teams in the NFL with a perfect score. Nice.

00:58:46.320 --> 00:58:50.059
The plumbing is ranked high. Oh, okay. It just

00:58:50.059 --> 00:58:52.019
left that on its own, but it got off after that.

00:58:52.320 --> 00:58:54.980
All I could see was the plumbing was ranked high,

00:58:55.000 --> 00:58:56.980
and I couldn't see anything else. So the toilets

00:58:56.980 --> 00:59:00.900
don't back up. Yeah. Okay. So good. I'm not sure

00:59:00.900 --> 00:59:06.949
what the next one is. After a locker room or

00:59:06.949 --> 00:59:15.369
what? Locker room. Training staff? Okay. 75 %

00:59:15.369 --> 00:59:18.929
of players feel they have enough full -time trainers.

00:59:19.789 --> 00:59:22.329
60 % of players feel they have enough physical

00:59:22.329 --> 00:59:27.429
therapists. Hot tub space is great with 95%.

00:59:27.429 --> 00:59:30.710
88 % of players say they have enough cold stuff

00:59:30.710 --> 00:59:35.510
or cold space. Cold tub space, yeah. Okay, training

00:59:35.510 --> 00:59:40.869
staff is C, 30th out of 32 teams. 72 % say they

00:59:40.869 --> 00:59:44.449
get enough one -on -one treatment. Weight room,

00:59:44.510 --> 00:59:48.329
A-, they report the equipment is high quality,

00:59:48.489 --> 00:59:50.590
11 out of 32. They feel they have more than enough

00:59:50.590 --> 00:59:52.750
space to train in their weight room, 10 out of

00:59:52.750 --> 00:59:56.829
32. Strength coaches, B +, 18th out of 32. The

00:59:56.829 --> 00:59:58.750
Cowboys feel their strength coaches moderately

00:59:58.750 --> 01:00:01.929
contribute to their overall success. Team travel,

01:00:02.170 --> 01:00:04.840
B -. 81 % believe they have a comfortable amount

01:00:04.840 --> 01:00:07.219
of personal space on team flights. 24 out of

01:00:07.219 --> 01:00:09.440
32. The players feel team travel is somewhat

01:00:09.440 --> 01:00:13.079
efficient. A rank 17 out of 32. Head coach, an

01:00:13.079 --> 01:00:16.300
A. 14 out of 32. So an A doesn't really mean

01:00:16.300 --> 01:00:18.559
that much because that's middle of the... Yeah.

01:00:18.619 --> 01:00:21.019
Okay. The players feel that McCarthy was highly

01:00:21.019 --> 01:00:25.000
receptive to locker room feedback. No fat jokes.

01:00:25.260 --> 01:00:31.480
Rating him 11 out of 32. Ownership. 18th out

01:00:31.480 --> 01:00:36.699
of 32 gives him a B. Jerry Jones. Amazing. I'm

01:00:36.699 --> 01:00:39.599
not even reading that. That's bullshit. I know.

01:00:39.639 --> 01:00:41.920
I don't understand how they can give him a B

01:00:41.920 --> 01:00:44.500
rating when he is the single most destructive

01:00:44.500 --> 01:00:47.000
force in that franchise. He's the main reason

01:00:47.000 --> 01:00:48.460
they're not winning championships. Right now

01:00:48.460 --> 01:00:50.719
I'm questioning this whole thing. I know. It's

01:00:50.719 --> 01:00:53.900
ridiculous. Yeah. How could that guy get a high

01:00:53.900 --> 01:00:55.940
score? How? I don't get it. He's done nothing

01:00:55.940 --> 01:00:59.440
but screwed up the team. Yeah. Okay, all right.

01:00:59.519 --> 01:01:03.659
I don't know. All right, well, Jacksonville Jaguars.

01:01:04.920 --> 01:01:09.460
They surprisingly got B's and A's in just about

01:01:09.460 --> 01:01:12.800
everything. Okay. They got a C for head coach

01:01:12.800 --> 01:01:15.920
because they felt Doug Peterson wouldn't listen

01:01:15.920 --> 01:01:20.900
to anybody. Okay. He wasted a lot of their time

01:01:20.900 --> 01:01:22.980
and just didn't want to hear what they had to

01:01:22.980 --> 01:01:29.000
say. Treatment of families, F. Dead Solid F.

01:01:30.119 --> 01:01:35.380
They do provide daycare during home games, but

01:01:35.380 --> 01:01:38.880
their post -game family area is ranked 5 .4 out

01:01:38.880 --> 01:01:43.219
of 10. Oh, my God. Yeah. The treatment of families

01:01:43.219 --> 01:01:45.460
is the team's lowest -graded category. They believe

01:01:45.460 --> 01:01:48.219
that many changes need to be made. More access

01:01:48.219 --> 01:01:51.099
to sideline passes so they can actually see their

01:01:51.099 --> 01:01:54.840
families before the game. During the game, players

01:01:54.840 --> 01:01:56.059
want to... That's pretty good. That's a good

01:01:56.059 --> 01:01:58.670
one. During the game, players want a family room

01:01:58.670 --> 01:02:00.849
so their families can escape the heat and allow

01:02:00.849 --> 01:02:03.010
mothers to change or nurse their babies. There

01:02:03.010 --> 01:02:06.269
is none. They're just on their own. You've got

01:02:06.269 --> 01:02:08.429
to go do wherever you are or go stand in a stinky

01:02:08.429 --> 01:02:11.650
bathroom to do it. Whatever, yeah. That's, yeah.

01:02:11.909 --> 01:02:14.909
And their post -game family is crap. Their post

01:02:14.909 --> 01:02:19.110
-game family area is crap. Their food got a C

01:02:19.110 --> 01:02:24.949
+, because it's just not very fresh. And the

01:02:24.949 --> 01:02:27.489
taste is bad. But their dining area is really,

01:02:27.550 --> 01:02:30.090
really nice. It's just when you go there to eat,

01:02:30.150 --> 01:02:33.610
the food's crap. So that's kind of the highlights

01:02:33.610 --> 01:02:35.409
of the Jaguars. They're actually doing a lot

01:02:35.409 --> 01:02:37.409
of things right, but they're doing a few things

01:02:37.409 --> 01:02:39.670
really, really, really, really poorly. Yeah.

01:02:40.369 --> 01:02:43.130
Do you want to do the rest of them next time

01:02:43.130 --> 01:02:45.329
and do a little game I call forward -backward?

01:02:45.449 --> 01:02:48.769
Yes. Okay. We're going to do the Western Division.

01:02:49.230 --> 01:02:53.250
Okay. Okay, I'm going to mention a team. And

01:02:53.250 --> 01:02:55.230
you say you think they're going to move forward

01:02:55.230 --> 01:02:57.369
or backward this next year. Ooh, I like this.

01:02:57.510 --> 01:03:01.409
I do too. Let's start at the bottom feeder, Oakland

01:03:01.409 --> 01:03:04.789
Raiders. Or not Oakland, Las Vegas. I think they're

01:03:04.789 --> 01:03:06.889
going to take a step ahead. Me too. I definitely

01:03:06.889 --> 01:03:10.250
do. They put a lot of good pieces in place. I

01:03:10.250 --> 01:03:15.389
think so also. So Oakland, Las Vegas Raiders

01:03:15.389 --> 01:03:18.010
are going to take a step forward. Do you have

01:03:18.010 --> 01:03:21.250
an idea of what? What position they'll be in?

01:03:21.329 --> 01:03:25.889
First, second, third, fourth? I'm going to put

01:03:25.889 --> 01:03:29.309
them third. I think they're going to finish above

01:03:29.309 --> 01:03:33.150
either Los Angeles or Denver, but I'm not sure

01:03:33.150 --> 01:03:35.949
which one. Yeah. I'm going to put them third,

01:03:36.010 --> 01:03:37.829
and they're going to have at least a winning

01:03:37.829 --> 01:03:40.269
record. Yeah, I think so, too. I think it might

01:03:40.269 --> 01:03:42.809
be nine and eight. Yeah. And that's probably

01:03:42.809 --> 01:03:44.929
it, or it could be... It could be eight and nine.

01:03:44.949 --> 01:03:46.309
Eight and nine, yeah. That's pretty close to

01:03:46.309 --> 01:03:47.769
a winning record. It's the closest you can get.

01:03:48.510 --> 01:03:50.820
Okay. You know, I'm going to go ahead and put

01:03:50.820 --> 01:03:53.400
them fourth again. Okay. But they're going to

01:03:53.400 --> 01:03:54.880
have a group. But they're going to be a better

01:03:54.880 --> 01:03:56.460
team. Yeah, the Western Division is going to

01:03:56.460 --> 01:03:59.539
be tough. Yeah. So, I mean, look at everybody

01:03:59.539 --> 01:04:03.340
that was hired to beat Reed and Mahomes. Pete

01:04:03.340 --> 01:04:06.380
Carroll. Yeah. Super Bowl winner. Tom Brady is

01:04:06.380 --> 01:04:10.559
now on board. Yeah, many Super Bowl winner. Okay,

01:04:10.699 --> 01:04:13.139
so not only Pete Carroll was hired, but also

01:04:13.139 --> 01:04:16.079
you have Jim Harbaugh, who's been in the Super

01:04:16.079 --> 01:04:18.690
Bowl. And then you have Sean Payton, who has

01:04:18.690 --> 01:04:21.230
won a Super Bowl and been to many playoff games.

01:04:21.550 --> 01:04:24.250
All these guys are going against Andy Reid and

01:04:24.250 --> 01:04:27.730
Patrick Mahomes. So it's going to be a very tough

01:04:27.730 --> 01:04:31.269
division. It will. And I think getting home field

01:04:31.269 --> 01:04:33.630
advantage is going to be hard to from here on

01:04:33.630 --> 01:04:35.489
out. Fortunately, the Chiefs really don't need

01:04:35.489 --> 01:04:37.550
home field advantage to succeed in the playoffs.

01:04:38.070 --> 01:04:40.309
Actually, they did better in playoffs. Yeah,

01:04:40.349 --> 01:04:42.550
they did pretty well when they were on the road.

01:04:42.610 --> 01:04:46.260
Yeah, they did very well. Part of that is Mahomes,

01:04:46.420 --> 01:04:50.159
he doesn't seem to have nerves. Yeah. He just

01:04:50.159 --> 01:04:52.320
gets out there and does the same thing. Yeah.

01:04:52.440 --> 01:04:57.079
Unless he's flat on his back. Yeah. So, yeah,

01:04:57.139 --> 01:04:59.139
the Raiders, I think, are going to be fourth,

01:04:59.199 --> 01:05:01.639
but I think it's going to be 9 -8, 8 -9, and

01:05:01.639 --> 01:05:03.599
that's just because the strength of the division.

01:05:03.800 --> 01:05:05.800
Yeah. I would give them a leap forward, but I

01:05:05.800 --> 01:05:07.340
think the other two teams are going to take a

01:05:07.340 --> 01:05:10.400
leap forward, too. Yeah. So, all right, then

01:05:10.400 --> 01:05:13.440
let's go to the Chargers. Okay, I think they're

01:05:13.440 --> 01:05:15.079
going to take a step back. I'm going to put them

01:05:15.079 --> 01:05:17.300
fourth. You know, I think they're going to take

01:05:17.300 --> 01:05:19.119
a step back, too, but I think it's still going

01:05:19.119 --> 01:05:22.219
to be they're going to win the tiebreaker is

01:05:22.219 --> 01:05:24.179
what I think between them, and it might be a

01:05:24.179 --> 01:05:26.559
9 -8, 8 -9 situation. Oh, it could be, yeah.

01:05:27.019 --> 01:05:29.900
But, I mean, either one of those could be interchangeable

01:05:29.900 --> 01:05:31.980
and would not surprise me at all if Vegas finished

01:05:31.980 --> 01:05:36.900
above them. Yeah. I'm kind of thinking Justin

01:05:36.900 --> 01:05:40.239
Herbert's going to have a little... crisis of

01:05:40.239 --> 01:05:41.860
confidence this year and he's going to have a

01:05:41.860 --> 01:05:46.800
bad season. That would make sense. They're not

01:05:46.800 --> 01:05:48.480
going to want to pull him. They're going to try

01:05:48.480 --> 01:05:50.159
to let him struggle through. I think he's going

01:05:50.159 --> 01:05:51.820
to have a really bad year and it's going to drag

01:05:51.820 --> 01:05:55.400
the team down. The second coming of Patrick Mahomes

01:05:55.400 --> 01:05:58.260
is really not looking like the second coming

01:05:58.260 --> 01:06:01.039
of Patrick Mahomes. I cannot count how many...

01:06:01.280 --> 01:06:03.119
Kind of looks like the second coming of Jackson

01:06:03.119 --> 01:06:08.519
Mahomes. Oh, I'm sorry. Oh, that was bad. I'm

01:06:08.519 --> 01:06:10.119
sorry. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So he's getting businesses

01:06:10.119 --> 01:06:15.760
closed down, allegedly. So, all right. Yeah,

01:06:15.800 --> 01:06:19.179
I look at Justin Herbert the way back in 85.

01:06:21.769 --> 01:06:24.190
The Patriots had a quarterback named Tony Eason

01:06:24.190 --> 01:06:26.469
who was supposed to be the next big thing, and

01:06:26.469 --> 01:06:28.449
then he got into the Super Bowl against the Bears

01:06:28.449 --> 01:06:31.230
and was destroyed, and he was never the same

01:06:31.230 --> 01:06:33.889
again. No. The only thing is I don't look for

01:06:33.889 --> 01:06:36.469
the Chargers to even make the Super Bowl. No.

01:06:37.369 --> 01:06:40.630
But same thing. Yeah, I think Herbert's going

01:06:40.630 --> 01:06:43.630
to have a bad year, and Harbaugh's not going

01:06:43.630 --> 01:06:46.090
to know what to do about it until too late. No,

01:06:46.230 --> 01:06:49.630
I know. I think that he is just not as much as

01:06:49.630 --> 01:06:52.630
they thought he was. He's great. if he's cheating,

01:06:52.750 --> 01:06:57.469
allegedly in college. Yeah, yeah. When you're

01:06:57.469 --> 01:07:00.469
in college and you're bossing around 18 to 20

01:07:00.469 --> 01:07:03.869
-year -old young men, that's very different from

01:07:03.869 --> 01:07:06.769
bossing around 21 to 35 -year -old men who are

01:07:06.769 --> 01:07:09.670
so rich they can buy and sell you. Yes. And they

01:07:09.670 --> 01:07:11.449
just don't give a damn. And they're going to

01:07:11.449 --> 01:07:13.349
be like, okay, great, you got a championship

01:07:13.349 --> 01:07:19.210
with Michigan. So. Yeah. Yeah. So the next one

01:07:19.210 --> 01:07:23.139
is the Denver Broncos. Okay, I think they are

01:07:23.139 --> 01:07:25.480
going to take a step forward. I think so too.

01:07:25.780 --> 01:07:29.699
And they're going to finish first or second.

01:07:31.400 --> 01:07:36.559
Very well could be. I'm giving Denver a reasonable

01:07:36.559 --> 01:07:40.440
chance to win the division over the Chiefs. Could

01:07:40.440 --> 01:07:45.420
be. They're a younger team. They're a hungrier

01:07:45.420 --> 01:07:50.900
team. There were so many games in the last even

01:07:50.900 --> 01:07:53.239
two years that the Chiefs were just like really

01:07:53.239 --> 01:07:57.119
damn lucky to win. And if those start going not

01:07:57.119 --> 01:08:01.300
the Chiefs' way, Denver could easily sweep ahead

01:08:01.300 --> 01:08:04.000
and win the division. So I'm looking at Denver

01:08:04.000 --> 01:08:07.460
to take a step forward and finish either first

01:08:07.460 --> 01:08:09.980
or second. I'm keeping Denver in second place

01:08:09.980 --> 01:08:13.980
just because of the Mahomes -Reed factor. I think

01:08:13.980 --> 01:08:15.900
that Denver is going to do really well, but they

01:08:15.900 --> 01:08:19.100
just cannot do it. against the Chiefs like no

01:08:19.100 --> 01:08:21.899
one has been able to. Yeah, that might be a confidence

01:08:21.899 --> 01:08:24.119
thing as well. I think some of that is, yeah.

01:08:25.020 --> 01:08:28.539
Their quarterback, I mean, great. I like it,

01:08:28.579 --> 01:08:31.100
yeah. I like Bo Nix a lot. Nix is fantastic,

01:08:31.180 --> 01:08:33.579
and I think that he's going to continue to do

01:08:33.579 --> 01:08:36.960
well, and he will decide in the next couple of

01:08:36.960 --> 01:08:38.960
years whether he's the guy that takes the team

01:08:38.960 --> 01:08:41.840
on the back or not. Right now, it's possible.

01:08:42.460 --> 01:08:45.899
It's in the equation, but it is still undetermined.

01:08:46.100 --> 01:08:49.010
Yeah. We're going to find out more when they

01:08:49.010 --> 01:08:51.310
get to some crucial games at the end of the season

01:08:51.310 --> 01:08:54.770
and playoff games. Yeah, absolutely. And that's

01:08:54.770 --> 01:08:57.189
going to determine, to me, the next five years

01:08:57.189 --> 01:09:00.390
of how they do against the Chiefs. I mean, because

01:09:00.390 --> 01:09:02.649
if you look at the Chiefs, they're just trying

01:09:02.649 --> 01:09:04.829
to stay put with defense and they're loading

01:09:04.829 --> 01:09:07.170
up on offense. So their defense might take a

01:09:07.170 --> 01:09:09.010
step back, but their offense looks to me like

01:09:09.010 --> 01:09:11.109
they're taking a couple of steps forward. Yeah,

01:09:11.149 --> 01:09:13.970
that was a pretty low -scoring season last season.

01:09:14.289 --> 01:09:17.689
Yeah, and they still – One lost one game, essentially.

01:09:17.729 --> 01:09:20.229
The other one was backups. It's like none or

01:09:20.229 --> 01:09:23.449
almost none games over 30 points. Yeah, and they

01:09:23.449 --> 01:09:25.710
still won them all. So I look for the defense

01:09:25.710 --> 01:09:30.869
to do well again. But I also think that the offense

01:09:30.869 --> 01:09:33.930
is going to take a step or two forward. Yeah,

01:09:33.970 --> 01:09:35.909
another 10 points a game would be really nice.

01:09:36.229 --> 01:09:38.130
I think you'll see that happen, not in every

01:09:38.130 --> 01:09:39.470
game, but I think you're going to see that happen

01:09:39.470 --> 01:09:42.130
in a lot of games. So I'm going to say that the

01:09:42.130 --> 01:09:46.489
Chiefs are probably going to be 13 -4. As odd

01:09:46.489 --> 01:09:48.850
as that sounds with their schedule, last year

01:09:48.850 --> 01:09:52.569
would I have ever picked 15 -1? Hell no. Well,

01:09:52.609 --> 01:09:55.090
15 -2, but no. No, I would have been like, no

01:09:55.090 --> 01:09:58.170
way. Especially their play. I've been like, there's

01:09:58.170 --> 01:10:01.430
no way. I picked them 15 -2 last year. Oh, you

01:10:01.430 --> 01:10:04.369
did, didn't you? I did, yeah. Okay. And I thought

01:10:04.369 --> 01:10:08.329
you were nuts. Yeah. Okay. I think you're going

01:10:08.329 --> 01:10:12.909
to have 13 -4 because every game the ball isn't

01:10:12.909 --> 01:10:14.510
going to bounce in the right direction. Yeah.

01:10:14.859 --> 01:10:18.739
And I think that that's going to be tied or close

01:10:18.739 --> 01:10:24.520
to getting home field advantage. We'll see. We've

01:10:24.520 --> 01:10:27.119
got to see because Buffalo seems to be making

01:10:27.119 --> 01:10:30.079
more moves, and they're not fucking around. They

01:10:30.079 --> 01:10:35.659
want to be the guy. So that's one thing. And

01:10:35.659 --> 01:10:37.939
Josh Allen has a limited lifespan left, just

01:10:37.939 --> 01:10:40.119
like Mahomes has a limited lifespan left. It's

01:10:40.119 --> 01:10:42.579
like you can't wait any longer to start your

01:10:42.579 --> 01:10:44.729
dynasty. You've just got to go now. Something

01:10:44.729 --> 01:10:46.449
I'm noticing right now, Mahomes is starting to

01:10:46.449 --> 01:10:48.109
keep in a little bit better shape. Why is that?

01:10:48.510 --> 01:10:50.829
Because he's hitting 30 years old. Yeah. And

01:10:50.829 --> 01:10:53.229
he knows. He looked back and looked at Tom Brady.

01:10:53.310 --> 01:10:55.970
Tom Brady, the older he got, the more strenuous

01:10:55.970 --> 01:10:58.350
his workouts were because he knew you're going

01:10:58.350 --> 01:11:00.229
to lose a certain amount each year, so you've

01:11:00.229 --> 01:11:02.289
got to stay ahead of the game. Mahomes is that

01:11:02.289 --> 01:11:04.489
smart. Yeah. And he's starting, I notice, he's

01:11:04.489 --> 01:11:07.819
starting to work out more. He cut his hair a

01:11:07.819 --> 01:11:09.359
little bit, kind of got a little bit different

01:11:09.359 --> 01:11:12.199
look now. I think that he's going to be the serious

01:11:12.199 --> 01:11:14.840
guy that's going to be kind of buff. I mean,

01:11:14.859 --> 01:11:18.140
he's already maybe one of the best ever, easily.

01:11:19.659 --> 01:11:23.479
And the study of the motion of the human body

01:11:23.479 --> 01:11:26.840
and the way our systems work together is advanced

01:11:26.840 --> 01:11:30.979
so much that you can tailor a workout to not

01:11:30.979 --> 01:11:34.039
only the position he plays and how he plays it,

01:11:34.119 --> 01:11:37.680
but the age he is. So you make sure you don't

01:11:37.680 --> 01:11:41.619
hurt or strain anything because a 30 -year -old's

01:11:41.619 --> 01:11:43.760
workout shouldn't be the same as a 20 -year -old's

01:11:43.760 --> 01:11:47.539
workout. No, and they know this. And also, I'm

01:11:47.539 --> 01:11:49.560
pretty sure that Mahomes probably has his own

01:11:49.560 --> 01:11:52.699
trainer. He'd be smart to, yeah. And I don't

01:11:52.699 --> 01:11:54.760
know if the team pays for it for him, but I'm

01:11:54.760 --> 01:11:57.920
sure he has one guy or two or three dedicated

01:11:57.920 --> 01:12:00.779
to him only. I would say he probably pays them

01:12:00.779 --> 01:12:02.720
himself. That way he knows they're working for

01:12:02.720 --> 01:12:07.109
him and not the team. Yes. I agree. So Denver,

01:12:07.310 --> 01:12:14.329
10 -7, could be 11 -6 easily. Yeah. Okay, so

01:12:14.329 --> 01:12:17.649
I pick the Chiefs number one, and you pick them

01:12:17.649 --> 01:12:23.130
one or two, right? Yeah. I'm looking for a race

01:12:23.130 --> 01:12:26.550
at the end of the season for the AFC West title

01:12:26.550 --> 01:12:29.770
between Denver and Kansas City. I haven't seen

01:12:29.770 --> 01:12:31.670
the schedule yet to see what kind of games are

01:12:31.670 --> 01:12:33.510
late in the season, but they generally try to

01:12:33.510 --> 01:12:36.189
pack the end of the season with some pretty significant

01:12:36.189 --> 01:12:38.329
games that are going to affect people's playoff

01:12:38.329 --> 01:12:41.310
seedings. Yeah, playoffs. Playoffs. So that's

01:12:41.310 --> 01:12:45.550
what I'm kind of looking for. I see the Chiefs

01:12:45.550 --> 01:12:49.289
doing about as well this coming season as they

01:12:49.289 --> 01:12:51.489
did last season, but as you said, in a slightly

01:12:51.489 --> 01:12:53.270
different way. The defense will be all right.

01:12:53.369 --> 01:12:55.850
Offense is going to pick up a little more. But

01:12:55.850 --> 01:12:59.409
everybody's a year older. I think it's going

01:12:59.409 --> 01:13:02.590
to take a toll. I'm giving Kelsey a bounce back

01:13:02.590 --> 01:13:07.390
here. I could see that, yeah. Worthy is so fast.

01:13:08.130 --> 01:13:12.489
Hollywood Brown is a speedster. You have a bunch

01:13:12.489 --> 01:13:14.390
of other components, and plus probably a new

01:13:14.390 --> 01:13:16.750
running back, too, that they're going to draft.

01:13:16.850 --> 01:13:19.850
And you have Hunt, and you might have Pacheco.

01:13:20.909 --> 01:13:22.989
You're going to get Rice back probably halfway

01:13:22.989 --> 01:13:24.989
through the season. Yeah, Rushie Rice. They're

01:13:24.989 --> 01:13:27.520
saying maybe the first of the season now. Oh,

01:13:27.560 --> 01:13:30.500
okay. Rasheed is definitely, he's saying, I'm

01:13:30.500 --> 01:13:32.960
going to be back the full season. And supposedly

01:13:32.960 --> 01:13:35.100
his progress is good enough to where it's in

01:13:35.100 --> 01:13:40.739
the cards. Could be. Yeah. You know, there's

01:13:40.739 --> 01:13:43.359
the injury plus the legal issues. Yeah. And as

01:13:43.359 --> 01:13:46.340
far as the legal issues go, whatever the courts

01:13:46.340 --> 01:13:49.199
decide for him, you know, that has to happen.

01:13:49.600 --> 01:13:52.399
But the NFL can decide to just give him a slap

01:13:52.399 --> 01:13:55.380
on the wrist. If they really want him to play.

01:13:55.500 --> 01:13:57.899
I look for them to do that because he is a high

01:13:57.899 --> 01:13:59.659
-caliber player and they want to see what he

01:13:59.659 --> 01:14:02.220
can do. And I kind of think that they're going

01:14:02.220 --> 01:14:05.000
to be like, look, nobody was killed. They're

01:14:05.000 --> 01:14:07.239
figuring all this out in courts. Nobody's really

01:14:07.239 --> 01:14:08.960
freaked out about it. Let's just go ahead and

01:14:08.960 --> 01:14:11.600
keep it low. Let this guy play. Remember how

01:14:11.600 --> 01:14:14.840
difficult it was for the league to suspend Tom

01:14:14.840 --> 01:14:17.819
Brady for a couple three games? Yeah. They hated

01:14:17.819 --> 01:14:20.920
doing that because the ratings plummeted because

01:14:20.920 --> 01:14:23.739
Brady wasn't on TV. so they learned their lesson

01:14:23.739 --> 01:14:25.439
there is you know if this player does something

01:14:25.439 --> 01:14:28.800
really ugly and horrible let's keep him playing

01:14:28.800 --> 01:14:31.319
and just figure out a way to sell it and schmooze

01:14:31.319 --> 01:14:34.840
it and spin it i agree yeah yeah so they kind

01:14:34.840 --> 01:14:38.359
of like uh but i mean the real atrocity wasn't

01:14:38.359 --> 01:14:41.960
to play gate it was spy game yeah and they hid

01:14:41.960 --> 01:14:44.340
that under the rug with something else yeah and

01:14:44.340 --> 01:14:46.659
that was it so Yeah, they didn't want him going

01:14:46.659 --> 01:14:48.300
away because if they went away, a lot of the

01:14:48.300 --> 01:14:50.140
ratings went away because everybody was waiting

01:14:50.140 --> 01:14:51.960
for him to get their ass kicked, which happened

01:14:51.960 --> 01:14:54.520
a couple of times and not that much. Plus, there's

01:14:54.520 --> 01:14:57.399
still a ton of money to be made on talking about

01:14:57.399 --> 01:15:01.539
the Patriots dynasty and doing shows about it.

01:15:01.560 --> 01:15:03.460
And if you tarnish that legacy, no one's going

01:15:03.460 --> 01:15:05.140
to be interested and you've lost all that money

01:15:05.140 --> 01:15:06.640
-making opportunity. Yeah, they're going to go,

01:15:06.739 --> 01:15:08.659
yeah, you know what, that was just bullshit because

01:15:08.659 --> 01:15:13.239
they cheated. It's like how they covered up Bob

01:15:13.239 --> 01:15:15.880
Saget's death. Oh, yeah, that's right. Because

01:15:15.880 --> 01:15:18.460
if they had revealed exactly the bizarre, weird,

01:15:18.600 --> 01:15:20.619
and creepy circumstances under which he died,

01:15:20.760 --> 01:15:22.880
nobody would watch the reruns of his show anymore.

01:15:23.100 --> 01:15:25.460
No, that's true. And there's revenue gone. Isn't

01:15:25.460 --> 01:15:28.800
that that pervert? Yeah. So they sanitized the

01:15:28.800 --> 01:15:31.039
method of his death so people would still watch

01:15:31.039 --> 01:15:33.420
his TV show reruns. Yeah. Would they do that?

01:15:33.619 --> 01:15:35.439
You're damn right they would. Why wouldn't they?

01:15:35.619 --> 01:15:37.680
There's money to be made. Why wouldn't they?

01:15:37.880 --> 01:15:39.460
They don't give a shit about him. They never

01:15:39.460 --> 01:15:42.500
did. Or the family. No. They certainly don't

01:15:42.500 --> 01:15:44.460
care about us and telling us the truth. Oh, hell

01:15:44.460 --> 01:15:46.420
no. They lie to us routinely, and they think

01:15:46.420 --> 01:15:52.539
it's funny. All right, Chiefs 14 -3, 13 -4, even

01:15:52.539 --> 01:15:55.739
11 possibly. Any of those would not surprise

01:15:55.739 --> 01:15:58.760
me in that range. Yeah, I'm kind of seeing the

01:15:58.760 --> 01:16:01.300
Chiefs and the Chargers in the range between

01:16:01.300 --> 01:16:05.060
12 -5 and 14 -3. Chargers or Broncos? I mean,

01:16:05.079 --> 01:16:09.000
I'm sorry, Broncos. Okay. So I think you're pointing.

01:16:10.320 --> 01:16:14.340
I have an old man brain. Yeah. I think a lot

01:16:14.340 --> 01:16:17.260
of this is going to depend on Bo Nix. Yeah. They're

01:16:17.260 --> 01:16:18.840
going to depend on the running game that they

01:16:18.840 --> 01:16:22.140
have. If it's still successful, then Bo Nix is

01:16:22.140 --> 01:16:25.319
going to have a better season. Another thing

01:16:25.319 --> 01:16:28.100
is the receivers that they're going to draft.

01:16:29.479 --> 01:16:31.079
And I don't know if they're going to pick up

01:16:31.079 --> 01:16:33.239
any, but I expect them to get him some help.

01:16:33.380 --> 01:16:35.239
Yeah. And they're like, you did pretty good,

01:16:35.279 --> 01:16:36.880
but we're going to get you some help, and we're

01:16:36.880 --> 01:16:38.420
going to try to get you over the top. We're going

01:16:38.420 --> 01:16:40.520
to try to get you to that next level. We're going

01:16:40.520 --> 01:16:44.859
to try to get you in the top six or five. I remember

01:16:44.859 --> 01:16:48.920
the Broncos having a punishing running game when

01:16:48.920 --> 01:16:51.760
they were making it to the Super Bowls. Well,

01:16:51.819 --> 01:16:53.640
when they won Super Bowls, they did. When they

01:16:53.640 --> 01:16:55.960
lost Super Bowls, they did not. And that was

01:16:55.960 --> 01:16:58.779
John Elway's army. No defense, no running game.

01:16:58.939 --> 01:17:01.390
Yeah, yeah. And every year they get their ass

01:17:01.390 --> 01:17:06.270
kicked in the Super Bowl. Nobody enjoyed that.

01:17:06.630 --> 01:17:08.189
Yeah, but at least they made it to the Super

01:17:08.189 --> 01:17:12.850
Bowl, not like other teams. Yeah. All right.

01:17:14.210 --> 01:17:16.470
I just wanted to cover the Western Division.

01:17:16.569 --> 01:17:18.689
Next week we can do another one. Sounds good.

01:17:18.850 --> 01:17:20.729
All right. You want to go into the music creeps?

01:17:21.010 --> 01:17:23.390
I've got a whole page of NFL records. Oh, good.

01:17:23.489 --> 01:17:25.770
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I forgot about that.

01:17:25.789 --> 01:17:28.270
Yes. Now, here are some NFL records that you

01:17:28.270 --> 01:17:32.109
really don't want to break. Because, I mean,

01:17:32.149 --> 01:17:34.569
I'm not being mean. The NFL actually keeps track

01:17:34.569 --> 01:17:36.329
of these records. No, no, no, I love this thing.

01:17:36.569 --> 01:17:39.729
These, yeah. Okay, our first one here is the

01:17:39.729 --> 01:17:43.369
shortest career as measured in playing time.

01:17:44.850 --> 01:17:48.770
Ryan Sutter was a Panther safety. His entire

01:17:48.770 --> 01:17:54.630
career was five seconds. He was activated off

01:17:54.630 --> 01:17:58.020
the practice squad. sent in for the opening kickoff,

01:17:58.180 --> 01:18:01.579
during which he missed a tackle, fell and hurt

01:18:01.579 --> 01:18:05.039
his shoulder, and his career was done. Five seconds.

01:18:05.220 --> 01:18:08.000
Five seconds. One play. One play. And he missed

01:18:08.000 --> 01:18:11.779
the tackle. Oh, my gosh. Poor guy. That's the

01:18:11.779 --> 01:18:16.380
Al Bundy. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. All right.

01:18:16.420 --> 01:18:20.119
Most arrests by an NFL player. Michael Irvin?

01:18:21.359 --> 01:18:26.069
The number is ten. Ten arrests. Adam Pac -Man

01:18:26.069 --> 01:18:31.069
Jones and Alden Smith. Wow. Mostly drug and violence

01:18:31.069 --> 01:18:33.810
-related charges. There was some trespassing

01:18:33.810 --> 01:18:35.550
in there, but most of them were drug and violence

01:18:35.550 --> 01:18:38.170
-related. I forgot about Pac -Man. Yeah. He's

01:18:38.170 --> 01:18:43.689
cleaned his act up. He is now. Yeah. He eventually

01:18:43.689 --> 01:18:45.829
dropped the name Pac -Man during his playing

01:18:45.829 --> 01:18:47.649
time. He says, I don't want to be that guy anymore.

01:18:47.810 --> 01:18:49.970
Just call me Adam Jones. Just like Andre Rison.

01:18:50.109 --> 01:18:52.369
Yeah. No more Bad Moon. What was he after that?

01:18:52.430 --> 01:18:54.510
I forgot. Oh, well, it doesn't matter. I can't

01:18:54.510 --> 01:18:56.829
remember. But it's funny, when he dropped the

01:18:56.829 --> 01:18:58.810
Pac -Man. Spider -Man. Yeah. When he dropped

01:18:58.810 --> 01:19:00.970
the Pac -Man, he became Adam Jones, which is

01:19:00.970 --> 01:19:02.789
the same name as the guitar player for Tool.

01:19:02.970 --> 01:19:06.250
Oh, yeah, that's right. Okay, now the most arrests

01:19:06.250 --> 01:19:12.090
as a team since the year 2000, Vikings have had

01:19:12.090 --> 01:19:16.210
60. Really? 60 arrests. You wouldn't think of

01:19:16.210 --> 01:19:19.069
them as being a high team for the rest because

01:19:19.069 --> 01:19:21.189
you don't hear that much about them. Well, a

01:19:21.189 --> 01:19:24.050
big chunk of that was that whole party boat thing.

01:19:24.630 --> 01:19:26.229
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Remember they had the team

01:19:26.229 --> 01:19:28.930
party boat and they were giving lots of drugs,

01:19:28.989 --> 01:19:32.550
lots of underage girls, lots of date rape going

01:19:32.550 --> 01:19:35.770
on. That was a whole Vikings thing. They got

01:19:35.770 --> 01:19:37.729
nailed for that one. You don't want to break

01:19:37.729 --> 01:19:42.829
that record. No, no. Heaviest player ever for

01:19:42.829 --> 01:19:46.090
the NFL. Bears offensive tackle Aaron Gibson

01:19:46.090 --> 01:19:51.409
at 410 pounds. Wow. He made the refrigerator

01:19:51.409 --> 01:19:54.270
probably look somewhat skinny. Yeah, I remember

01:19:54.270 --> 01:19:58.109
William Perry, he was like, he was right around

01:19:58.109 --> 01:20:00.810
300 pounds. And people thought that was just

01:20:00.810 --> 01:20:03.350
comically obese for any human being. But now

01:20:03.350 --> 01:20:05.310
300 pounds for an offensive tackle. That's pretty

01:20:05.310 --> 01:20:06.869
normal. Yeah, that's normal. Pretty normal, yeah.

01:20:06.869 --> 01:20:08.609
But then again, they're not built like he was

01:20:08.609 --> 01:20:10.409
either. I mean, to where it's kind of like a

01:20:10.409 --> 01:20:12.819
lot of fat. going over your belt line and all

01:20:12.819 --> 01:20:16.100
that. Plus, the players now who are carrying

01:20:16.100 --> 01:20:19.260
that weight, they've trained all their lives

01:20:19.260 --> 01:20:22.140
and conditioned to carry that, whereas William

01:20:22.140 --> 01:20:25.100
Perry basically just ate his brains out and put

01:20:25.100 --> 01:20:27.520
on a bunch of fat. And this is self -admitted,

01:20:27.539 --> 01:20:30.159
too. He admits to it, so it's not like we're

01:20:30.159 --> 01:20:34.199
telling anything new. This one's fun. The shortest

01:20:34.199 --> 01:20:37.239
punt ever in NFL history. Oh, this is going to

01:20:37.239 --> 01:20:40.479
be good. Remember Sean Landetta of the Eagles?

01:20:41.210 --> 01:20:45.470
Thank goodness. 1985 playoffs versus the Giants.

01:20:45.510 --> 01:20:48.930
Playoffs. Playoffs. He punted for negative seven

01:20:48.930 --> 01:20:52.869
yards. And that's basically how far behind the

01:20:52.869 --> 01:20:54.909
line of scrimmage he stands. So that punt must

01:20:54.909 --> 01:20:58.970
have gone straight up. And then it came straight

01:20:58.970 --> 01:21:01.010
down and was recovered by a Giants player and

01:21:01.010 --> 01:21:05.989
returned for a touchdown. Oh my gosh. In the

01:21:05.989 --> 01:21:11.100
playoffs. Playoffs. A negative seven -yard punt.

01:21:11.340 --> 01:21:15.000
I love it. Oh, my God. I bet you he bought all

01:21:15.000 --> 01:21:18.539
of the footage on that. Yeah. Yeah, he did a

01:21:18.539 --> 01:21:21.060
Tom Hanks. He's like, I'm never making the Hall

01:21:21.060 --> 01:21:22.779
of Fame now. I might as well just give it up.

01:21:22.899 --> 01:21:26.340
Yep, that's it. But I'll bet you that football

01:21:26.340 --> 01:21:28.279
is probably in the Hall of Fame. I bet it is,

01:21:28.279 --> 01:21:29.760
too. I'll bet it is. This is the minus seven

01:21:29.760 --> 01:21:31.739
football. Hey, come here. Everybody, take it.

01:21:31.739 --> 01:21:36.319
Nobody's ever done this before. Oh, shit. Shit,

01:21:36.359 --> 01:21:38.479
shit, shit, shit, shit. That's all right. It

01:21:38.479 --> 01:21:42.279
worked. Okay. It's all right. Well, sorry about

01:21:42.279 --> 01:21:46.300
that. Let's see if I've got a napkin or something.

01:21:46.600 --> 01:21:48.920
Okay, I'll go get a couple. All right, we'll

01:21:48.920 --> 01:21:52.020
hit pause here. Okay, excitement's over. Yeah,

01:21:52.060 --> 01:21:55.899
a little Cubano spillage there. Curtis and me.

01:21:57.000 --> 01:21:59.899
All right, where were we? Okay, next one. The

01:21:59.899 --> 01:22:06.850
only NFL team to lose a game to the CFL. I didn't

01:22:06.850 --> 01:22:09.130
know that was possible. They used to play exhibition

01:22:09.130 --> 01:22:16.010
games. But let's see. The Buffalo Bills lost

01:22:16.010 --> 01:22:18.810
an exhibition game to the Hamilton Tiger Caps

01:22:18.810 --> 01:22:21.710
38 -21. Does it have the quarterback's name on

01:22:21.710 --> 01:22:26.090
there? It does not. Oh, that's too bad. First

01:22:26.090 --> 01:22:29.449
half they played by the CFL rules. Second half

01:22:29.449 --> 01:22:32.430
they played by NFL rules. How confusing is that?

01:22:32.590 --> 01:22:35.039
That, yeah. I don't blame anyone for losing that

01:22:35.039 --> 01:22:37.520
way. I'd be like, I'm not even going to. Now

01:22:37.520 --> 01:22:40.939
here's the fun part for me. The game was played

01:22:40.939 --> 01:22:45.939
on August 8, 1961. That is the exact day I was

01:22:45.939 --> 01:22:49.180
born. Oh, wow. Just up the road in Rochester,

01:22:49.460 --> 01:22:51.659
New York, I was being born while this game was

01:22:51.659 --> 01:22:54.779
being played. Wow, against the CFL. And that's

01:22:54.779 --> 01:22:58.319
the last time the NFL ever played the CFL. Yeah,

01:22:58.340 --> 01:23:00.180
they didn't want to lose. Yeah, you beat us,

01:23:00.220 --> 01:23:03.229
we're not playing you again. Oh, you know Canada

01:23:03.229 --> 01:23:05.750
has that football up on display somewhere. But

01:23:05.750 --> 01:23:08.630
that was on my actual real birthday. That was

01:23:08.630 --> 01:23:11.329
kind of cool. Wow, that is cool. Yeah. And they

01:23:11.329 --> 01:23:13.750
just jumped across the border anyhow. Yeah, pretty

01:23:13.750 --> 01:23:19.909
much. All right, the most times a player has

01:23:19.909 --> 01:23:22.789
been traded. Oh, that's going to be interesting.

01:23:22.890 --> 01:23:26.350
This is a three -way tie at four trades. Okay.

01:23:26.770 --> 01:23:31.119
Brandon Cooks got traded four times. Kiki Alonzo,

01:23:31.260 --> 01:23:33.020
I think he was a linebacker, got traded four

01:23:33.020 --> 01:23:35.300
times. That sounds about right. And running back

01:23:35.300 --> 01:23:38.100
Eric Dickerson got traded four times. Oh, I knew

01:23:38.100 --> 01:23:40.460
Dickerson did quite a bit. For such a good player,

01:23:40.600 --> 01:23:44.140
he was really good at garnishing the key players

01:23:44.140 --> 01:23:48.680
for other teams. Now, Dickerson would have been

01:23:48.680 --> 01:23:52.199
all alone at five trades, except his final one

01:23:52.199 --> 01:23:54.319
to the Cowboys, he failed the physical, which

01:23:54.319 --> 01:23:57.270
voided the trade. Oh, okay. So he stuck it for

01:23:57.270 --> 01:23:59.289
him. That was probably later in his career, wasn't

01:23:59.289 --> 01:24:02.689
it? Yeah, he was going from the Falcons to the

01:24:02.689 --> 01:24:05.029
Cowboys, and the Cowboys said, no, you're not.

01:24:05.029 --> 01:24:07.250
The Falcons, he did play for them. Yeah, it was

01:24:07.250 --> 01:24:16.250
Rams, and then Colts, and then Raiders, and then

01:24:16.250 --> 01:24:18.909
Falcons. Okay. And then he was going to go to

01:24:18.909 --> 01:24:21.909
the Cowboys, but Bailey Fitzgerald. Wow. So four

01:24:21.909 --> 01:24:26.489
trades each. Okay. Okay. Most single season losses.

01:24:28.350 --> 01:24:33.090
16. So nobody's lost every game in the 17 -game

01:24:33.090 --> 01:24:37.289
schedule yet. But only two teams have lost every

01:24:37.289 --> 01:24:40.630
single game in the 16 games. The 2017 Browns

01:24:40.630 --> 01:24:45.569
and the 2008 Lions. Wow. Okay. Now, I thought

01:24:45.569 --> 01:24:48.130
Cincinnati was on that list. I thought I remembered

01:24:48.130 --> 01:24:50.689
Cincinnati losing every single game. Yeah. But

01:24:50.689 --> 01:24:53.390
I think it was Cleveland. I was thinking of Cleveland

01:24:53.390 --> 01:24:56.100
instead of Cincinnati. For some reason, Cincinnati

01:24:56.100 --> 01:24:57.800
sounds about right, but I guess not. But I think

01:24:57.800 --> 01:25:00.500
that maybe they won one or two games and escaped.

01:25:00.739 --> 01:25:06.119
Yeah, this is before Carson Palmer came in and

01:25:06.119 --> 01:25:08.319
all that. And I forgot the head coach that was

01:25:08.319 --> 01:25:14.159
there for years. Oh, yeah. I can't remember his

01:25:14.159 --> 01:25:17.340
name. Oh, well, anyhow. I don't remember. All

01:25:17.340 --> 01:25:20.140
right, the longest losing streak over multiple

01:25:20.140 --> 01:25:27.449
seasons. is the Chicago Cardinals. Wow. Yeah,

01:25:27.510 --> 01:25:29.689
before they were the Arizona Cardinals. Or the

01:25:29.689 --> 01:25:31.430
St. Louis Cardinals. Well, they were the Phoenix

01:25:31.430 --> 01:25:34.149
Cardinals. Then they were the St. Louis Cardinals,

01:25:34.170 --> 01:25:35.930
and before that they were the Chicago Cardinals.

01:25:36.210 --> 01:25:38.989
Okay. So back when the Bears and the Cardinals

01:25:38.989 --> 01:25:43.369
were both playing in Chicago, they had a playoff

01:25:43.369 --> 01:25:46.630
game to see which team was going to stay and

01:25:46.630 --> 01:25:48.550
which was going to leave. And the Cardinals lost,

01:25:48.750 --> 01:25:52.310
so they moved to St. Louis. Oh, wow. Yeah. So

01:25:52.310 --> 01:25:54.829
anyway, the Chicago Cardinals from 19... That's

01:25:54.829 --> 01:25:57.850
interesting. I never knew that. Yeah. Between

01:25:57.850 --> 01:26:02.649
1942 and 1945, so there's four seasons during

01:26:02.649 --> 01:26:06.649
World War II, the Cardinals lost 29 games in

01:26:06.649 --> 01:26:10.850
a row. Wow. Yeah. Oh, my gosh. They lost the

01:26:10.850 --> 01:26:15.279
last four of the 42 season. They lost all 10

01:26:15.279 --> 01:26:18.960
in the 43 season, all 10 in the 44 season, and

01:26:18.960 --> 01:26:22.659
the first five of the 1945 season. Just to give

01:26:22.659 --> 01:26:28.539
everyone an idea, an 0 -4 team is harder to do

01:26:28.539 --> 01:26:33.000
than an 0 -4 winning team. Yeah. 17 -0, it's

01:26:33.000 --> 01:26:36.640
harder to go 0 -17. Yes, it really is. Yeah,

01:26:36.659 --> 01:26:38.840
so that will give you an idea about how inept

01:26:38.840 --> 01:26:42.100
that team was. And this was including the year

01:26:42.100 --> 01:26:46.020
1944. The Chicago Cardinals temporarily merged

01:26:46.020 --> 01:26:48.319
with the Pittsburgh Steelers because neither

01:26:48.319 --> 01:26:51.199
team had enough players to field a team because

01:26:51.199 --> 01:26:53.819
everyone was all fighting World War II. Okay,

01:26:53.939 --> 01:26:56.939
that makes sense. 29 losses. And also there's

01:26:56.939 --> 01:27:00.199
no men to watch it. Yeah. But when they did break

01:27:00.199 --> 01:27:03.680
the streak with a win, they beat, I think, the

01:27:03.680 --> 01:27:06.439
Bears. Oh, okay. And then they lost the rest

01:27:06.439 --> 01:27:10.039
of the games that season. You know, the Bears

01:27:10.039 --> 01:27:12.609
are like. Oh, my gosh. What the hell? Yeah, why

01:27:12.609 --> 01:27:16.109
did we have to be the ones? I would have been.

01:27:17.270 --> 01:27:20.289
This one surprised me. Most Super Bowl losses

01:27:20.289 --> 01:27:23.670
by a franchise. Okay. Two teams are tied with

01:27:23.670 --> 01:27:26.909
five. One's the Broncos. I was getting ready

01:27:26.909 --> 01:27:28.770
to say Broncos, and that was John Elway. Who

01:27:28.770 --> 01:27:34.210
do you think the other one is? Buffalo. Patriots.

01:27:35.159 --> 01:27:37.220
Oh, that's right, because they lost two before

01:27:37.220 --> 01:27:42.180
Brady. Before Brady, yeah. They've been in so

01:27:42.180 --> 01:27:45.060
many Super Bowls that they've lost five of them,

01:27:45.100 --> 01:27:47.760
and they still are, I think, have the most Super

01:27:47.760 --> 01:27:52.520
Bowl wins. That's just crazy. Okay, most consecutive

01:27:52.520 --> 01:27:55.960
Super Bowl losses. Buffalo. Buffalo Bills, yep.

01:27:56.260 --> 01:28:00.159
They lost four in a row. In 1990, the loss to

01:28:00.159 --> 01:28:04.069
the Giants, NFC East team. In 91, they lost to

01:28:04.069 --> 01:28:06.710
the then Washington Redskins, NFC East team.

01:28:06.989 --> 01:28:10.529
And then in 92 and 93, they lost to the Cowboys

01:28:10.529 --> 01:28:13.909
both times. Again, NFC East. NFC East. So for

01:28:13.909 --> 01:28:16.569
four years in a row, we had the Buffalo Bills

01:28:16.569 --> 01:28:19.010
playing somebody from the NFC East in the Super

01:28:19.010 --> 01:28:20.670
Bowl. And losing everyone. Four years in a row.

01:28:20.750 --> 01:28:22.350
Yep. And lost all four of them. That's where

01:28:22.350 --> 01:28:24.850
the white right came from. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:28:24.869 --> 01:28:27.050
Scott Norwood. And then they were going to change

01:28:27.050 --> 01:28:31.229
their area code in Buffalo to 044. Yeah, I remember

01:28:31.229 --> 01:28:37.069
that one too. And then this Bill's Cowboys Super

01:28:37.069 --> 01:28:39.710
Bowl is going to come up later, too. Okay, lowest

01:28:39.710 --> 01:28:44.289
scoring Super Bowl. It was Super Bowl 53 in 2019.

01:28:44.390 --> 01:28:49.109
The Patriots beat the Rams 13 -3. Okay. That

01:28:49.109 --> 01:28:51.050
was boring as hell. It was also one of the most

01:28:51.050 --> 01:28:54.189
lowest rated Super Bowls. Well, there's no excitement

01:28:54.189 --> 01:28:58.369
between those two. Think of it. Yeah. Brady can

01:28:58.369 --> 01:29:04.239
only score 13 points. Okay. No, and by this time,

01:29:04.300 --> 01:29:08.260
Brady was like kind of a, you know. Yeah. All

01:29:08.260 --> 01:29:11.340
right, most Super Bowl turnovers by a single

01:29:11.340 --> 01:29:15.659
team. In Super Bowl XXVII, the Bills lost nine

01:29:15.659 --> 01:29:19.920
turnovers to the Cowboys. I'd forgotten about

01:29:19.920 --> 01:29:23.000
that, but I believe it. Yeah, that's more than

01:29:23.000 --> 01:29:25.630
two per quarter. How many did Jim Kelly lose,

01:29:25.789 --> 01:29:27.829
I wonder? I bet you he lost probably four of

01:29:27.829 --> 01:29:29.810
those, I would think so. Yeah, and that was the

01:29:29.810 --> 01:29:33.710
game where the Cowboys won 52 -17. Wow. Yeah.

01:29:34.109 --> 01:29:36.970
Now, the most Super Bowl turnovers totaled by

01:29:36.970 --> 01:29:42.489
both teams combined, 11. Yeah, Super Bowl V,

01:29:42.630 --> 01:29:45.930
which is sometimes called the Blunder Bowl, it

01:29:45.930 --> 01:29:49.470
was the Colts against the Cowboys. Now, two years

01:29:49.470 --> 01:29:53.050
previous, the Colts had been the NFC team playing

01:29:53.050 --> 01:29:55.930
the Jets. But then with the merger, the Colts

01:29:55.930 --> 01:29:58.550
got switched to the AFC, and now they represented

01:29:58.550 --> 01:30:01.390
the AFC in the Super Bowl. So the Colts have

01:30:01.390 --> 01:30:05.649
represented both sides. Okay. The Colts had seven

01:30:05.649 --> 01:30:08.789
turnovers. The Cowboys had four, but the Colts

01:30:08.789 --> 01:30:12.510
still won the game 16 -13. Wow. But it was just

01:30:12.510 --> 01:30:14.890
mistake after mistake. And it wasn't like, you

01:30:14.890 --> 01:30:17.109
know, punching out the ball or cool interceptions.

01:30:17.560 --> 01:30:20.079
It was just bad play. Bad play. It was just,

01:30:20.140 --> 01:30:22.979
yeah. Which is horrible. For the Super Bowl.

01:30:23.060 --> 01:30:27.199
Yeah. Anyway. All right. Only Super Bowl non

01:30:27.199 --> 01:30:31.220
-sellout. I can't believe that, but go ahead.

01:30:31.380 --> 01:30:35.779
Super Bowl I. Oh, I can. 1967 Packers versus

01:30:35.779 --> 01:30:38.600
Chiefs. It was carried on two TV networks simultaneously.

01:30:39.560 --> 01:30:42.119
Because the AFL had their own network and the

01:30:42.119 --> 01:30:45.340
NFL had their network. And also, they were still

01:30:45.340 --> 01:30:47.619
the foolish dozen that was never going to make

01:30:47.619 --> 01:30:49.579
anything. They were like, no, they're going to

01:30:49.579 --> 01:30:51.840
go under. And they never thought they'd merge

01:30:51.840 --> 01:30:55.340
with the NFL because they became so prominent.

01:30:56.600 --> 01:31:00.779
Yeah, after a couple of seasons, someone remarked

01:31:00.779 --> 01:31:04.140
that Lamar Hunt had lost a million dollars during

01:31:04.140 --> 01:31:08.060
the past season of football. And the NFL owners

01:31:08.060 --> 01:31:09.680
were chuckling about that, and then somebody

01:31:09.680 --> 01:31:11.920
commented, yeah, at that rate, he'll only last

01:31:11.920 --> 01:31:16.239
another 53 seasons. And then the NFL said, oh,

01:31:16.359 --> 01:31:19.039
shit, they aren't going anywhere. We better make

01:31:19.039 --> 01:31:24.939
a merger. Yep. Anyways, 30 ,000 unsold tickets

01:31:24.939 --> 01:31:27.739
to Super Bowl I, and the prices range from $12

01:31:27.739 --> 01:31:32.579
to $115. Oh, wow. But back then, it was not even

01:31:32.579 --> 01:31:35.460
called the Super Bowl yet. Uh -huh. The halftime

01:31:35.460 --> 01:31:38.699
show was a college marching band and demonstrations

01:31:38.699 --> 01:31:47.039
of jetpacks. Oh, my God, how much it's changed.

01:31:47.319 --> 01:31:50.859
And it is rumored that Packers star player Max

01:31:50.859 --> 01:31:54.460
McGee was hung over and hiding in the stands

01:31:54.460 --> 01:31:56.899
with the fans at the start of the game because

01:31:56.899 --> 01:31:59.119
he couldn't play. And somebody went and found

01:31:59.119 --> 01:32:01.439
him and made him dress and go in and play. Oh,

01:32:01.439 --> 01:32:03.159
that's funny. And he wound up doing really well.

01:32:04.970 --> 01:32:13.430
Two more. Biggest blowout in NFL history. It

01:32:13.430 --> 01:32:17.250
was the 1940 NFL Championships between the Bears

01:32:17.250 --> 01:32:20.970
and the then Washington Redskins. 73 to nothing.

01:32:22.229 --> 01:32:26.170
Wow. Oh my gosh. Ten touchdowns in the field

01:32:26.170 --> 01:32:30.289
goal. And it got to the point about halftime.

01:32:30.779 --> 01:32:33.100
The officials came to the Bears and said, listen,

01:32:33.199 --> 01:32:35.439
you've got to quit scoring touchdowns because

01:32:35.439 --> 01:32:38.100
when you do, you kick the extra point and we

01:32:38.100 --> 01:32:39.899
lose the ball. It goes in the stands and we're

01:32:39.899 --> 01:32:42.260
running out of footballs. So you need to quit

01:32:42.260 --> 01:32:43.920
scoring because we're running out of footballs.

01:32:43.920 --> 01:32:46.500
And Chicago said, screw that, and they just went

01:32:46.500 --> 01:32:49.079
ahead and kept scoring. So they had to go, when

01:32:49.079 --> 01:32:51.180
they kicked the extra point, they had to go into

01:32:51.180 --> 01:32:53.939
the stands and get the ball back so they could

01:32:53.939 --> 01:32:59.000
keep playing. Wow. Different times, huh? Yeah.

01:33:00.769 --> 01:33:07.409
okay biggest blown lead okay of all time was

01:33:07.409 --> 01:33:13.130
the 2022 colts they were up 33 to nothing over

01:33:13.130 --> 01:33:19.390
the vikings lost 39 36 in overtime wow i remember

01:33:19.390 --> 01:33:21.550
that game i remember seeing you know the scores

01:33:21.550 --> 01:33:24.029
flash up and the colts were just like destroying

01:33:24.029 --> 01:33:26.569
the vikings and then the vikings started coming

01:33:26.569 --> 01:33:31.560
back and I think the Colts had to kick a field

01:33:31.560 --> 01:33:34.479
goal to send it into overtime to tie it at 36.

01:33:34.800 --> 01:33:37.600
Then the Vikings won it in overtime. Wow. That

01:33:37.600 --> 01:33:40.699
was one point better than the Bills beating the

01:33:40.699 --> 01:33:42.760
Houston Oilers in the playoffs, overcoming a

01:33:42.760 --> 01:33:47.739
32 -point deficit. Was that Warren Moon? Yep.

01:33:47.779 --> 01:33:51.359
The Oilers were ahead by 32 points, and it was

01:33:51.359 --> 01:33:54.319
like second half already. I think I remember

01:33:54.319 --> 01:33:56.899
that one. And I was like, wow. And Jim Kelly

01:33:56.899 --> 01:33:58.800
even got knocked out of the game. And backup

01:33:58.800 --> 01:34:02.239
Frank Reich came in and brought him all the way

01:34:02.239 --> 01:34:05.399
back and sent the Oilers home. And Carl Peterson

01:34:05.399 --> 01:34:11.100
was on the phone. So, that's what I got for you.

01:34:11.279 --> 01:34:13.979
Those are NFL records that you don't want to

01:34:13.979 --> 01:34:16.060
break. No, no, no, no. You don't want to get

01:34:16.060 --> 01:34:19.260
those. Yes. All right. All right, so shall we

01:34:19.260 --> 01:34:21.579
end this segment and proceed to the next? Yeah.

01:34:22.509 --> 01:34:24.850
Thanks for listening. Go fuck yourself.
