WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.540
Hey, guess what? You just landed on the Sports

00:00:03.540 --> 00:00:13.779
Bastards. Sorry about your luck. Alright, we

00:00:13.779 --> 00:00:17.359
are the Sports Bastards. Welcome to another bastard

00:00:17.359 --> 00:00:20.940
-y episode. Yes, we are approaching now, we are

00:00:20.940 --> 00:00:25.260
in the third week. of the NFL 2025 regular season,

00:00:25.600 --> 00:00:29.019
and our beloved Chiefs are 0 -2. Yeah, well,

00:00:29.019 --> 00:00:31.640
we're not the only 0 -2 team out there. It still

00:00:31.640 --> 00:00:35.119
kind of sucks to be there. It does, but I think

00:00:35.119 --> 00:00:36.820
there's going to be a lot of lessons to be learned

00:00:36.820 --> 00:00:40.920
when they look back. Definitely. Here, let me

00:00:40.920 --> 00:00:43.759
scoot some stuff around to make noise. For one,

00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:49.750
is there royalty in football? Is there? Is there

00:00:49.750 --> 00:00:52.250
really royalty in football? Not really. They

00:00:52.250 --> 00:00:55.469
just kind of build some teams up and some players

00:00:55.469 --> 00:00:58.509
up. So do you think that they think that Travis

00:00:58.509 --> 00:01:04.329
Kelsey still has enough left in him? Man, it's

00:01:04.329 --> 00:01:06.969
not looking like it, is it? It doesn't. I'm starting

00:01:06.969 --> 00:01:10.650
to wonder, really, what he's got left. He looks

00:01:10.650 --> 00:01:14.189
like an athlete that's beat up, tired, very sore.

00:01:14.209 --> 00:01:15.109
That's what I was getting at right there. There's

00:01:15.109 --> 00:01:17.689
things that have been hurting him since 2017.

00:01:18.879 --> 00:01:23.900
He's 35, born on 36. Yeah. He is a tight end.

00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:26.980
Yeah. He takes a lot of shots. That's like dog

00:01:26.980 --> 00:01:30.040
years, you know, seven years. One year for a

00:01:30.040 --> 00:01:32.140
tight end is like three years for a construction

00:01:32.140 --> 00:01:36.819
worker. Yes. Well, I don't know. You've done

00:01:36.819 --> 00:01:38.879
construction. I haven't. Carrying glass up a

00:01:38.879 --> 00:01:41.260
fucking flight of stairs will probably take a

00:01:41.260 --> 00:01:43.219
couple of minutes off your life. Probably so,

00:01:43.359 --> 00:01:47.260
yes. So, okay. But still not getting... that

00:01:47.260 --> 00:01:50.159
just hammered like dog shit every day. Yeah.

00:01:50.819 --> 00:01:55.219
Okay. I think that maybe the Chiefs had a double

00:01:55.219 --> 00:01:57.659
thing going on where they thought, well, he's

00:01:57.659 --> 00:02:02.159
royalty. Yeah. And we think he has some left.

00:02:02.340 --> 00:02:04.739
So the problem with this is once you start getting

00:02:04.739 --> 00:02:08.159
into the mid to late 30s, as we all know, your

00:02:08.159 --> 00:02:11.520
body doesn't just kind of decline. It starts

00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:14.780
jumping off a cliff. You know, that's actually...

00:02:15.520 --> 00:02:19.360
Backed up very much by medical science. I learned

00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:23.039
recently that at age 30, you start losing kidney

00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:26.300
function. About a half percent to one percent

00:02:26.300 --> 00:02:29.520
every year. Yeah, so 30 really is a dividing

00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:34.039
line. So you got a guy that's 35 going on 36,

00:02:34.219 --> 00:02:37.599
he's taken punishment his whole life. Yeah. Had

00:02:37.599 --> 00:02:40.360
several operations. Yeah. He's probably slowed

00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:42.580
down his step. You know he's missed a lot of

00:02:42.580 --> 00:02:45.099
sleep in his life. That adds up. Yeah, yeah.

00:02:45.879 --> 00:02:49.159
All the distractions of Taylor Swift and all

00:02:49.159 --> 00:02:51.439
that. I think that's why he got engaged right

00:02:51.439 --> 00:02:53.879
before the season. Let's get this over with.

00:02:54.259 --> 00:02:56.659
Maybe not wanting to do it right now, but let's

00:02:56.659 --> 00:02:58.659
get this over with so it's out of here. And now

00:02:58.659 --> 00:03:01.840
they're starting to hide her instead of promoting

00:03:01.840 --> 00:03:04.680
her. Yeah, yeah. I see where you're talking now

00:03:04.680 --> 00:03:08.919
about royalty in the NFL. Now that I know what

00:03:08.919 --> 00:03:10.400
we're talking about, yeah, there is royalty.

00:03:11.840 --> 00:03:13.520
Because Kelsey's definitely there. I'm sorry,

00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:17.060
I didn't describe it right. Loyalty and royalty.

00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:21.500
Yeah. So the loyalty part I get. I think you

00:03:21.500 --> 00:03:24.280
have to have loyalty to a certain degree. But

00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:27.379
also it depends on the other person too. The

00:03:27.379 --> 00:03:29.919
other person has to go, you know, I'm eating

00:03:29.919 --> 00:03:33.439
up a lot of salary. Yeah. And I'm not getting

00:03:33.439 --> 00:03:37.569
enough done. Yeah. The sad thing is, is he was

00:03:37.569 --> 00:03:42.930
our leading receiver in 66 yards. Yeah. Another

00:03:42.930 --> 00:03:45.150
sad thing is, you know who our rushing leader

00:03:45.150 --> 00:03:49.310
is by far? Patrick Mahomes. Yeah. I mean, it's

00:03:49.310 --> 00:03:53.689
not even close. There's so much that's just not

00:03:53.689 --> 00:03:55.669
going the way they told us it was going to go

00:03:55.669 --> 00:03:57.569
at the beginning of the season. We were promised

00:03:57.569 --> 00:03:59.870
all sorts of stuff, weren't we? Yeah, we were.

00:04:00.870 --> 00:04:03.889
Pacheco. I've never been that high on him. Have

00:04:03.889 --> 00:04:07.310
you? No. I mean, he was fun, but right from the

00:04:07.310 --> 00:04:09.150
beginning, I thought this is not a sustainable

00:04:09.150 --> 00:04:11.409
way to run the football. He's going to be fun

00:04:11.409 --> 00:04:13.330
for a couple years, and he's going to be injury

00:04:13.330 --> 00:04:16.209
-prone. I think he's already done. I think so.

00:04:16.290 --> 00:04:19.829
I think that whatever he had, other teams have

00:04:19.829 --> 00:04:21.930
figured out, and it's just not where the Chiefs

00:04:21.930 --> 00:04:24.269
are going right now anyway. Is Mitchell even

00:04:24.269 --> 00:04:26.829
on our – the guy we got from San Francisco, Eliah

00:04:26.829 --> 00:04:29.740
Mitchell, is he the running back? Is he even

00:04:29.740 --> 00:04:32.199
on our roster? I have not seen him on the field

00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:34.639
yet. I have not. Supposedly he's there on the

00:04:34.639 --> 00:04:37.720
roster. I don't think he's injured because that's

00:04:37.720 --> 00:04:40.240
been the knock on him. He's had over 1 ,000 yards

00:04:40.240 --> 00:04:44.600
one year, and he wasn't injured. Yeah. I imagine

00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:46.600
they never intended him to be the feature back

00:04:46.600 --> 00:04:48.819
or anything. I think they pretty much decided

00:04:48.819 --> 00:04:53.779
that's Hunt. But I can't remember Kareem Hunt

00:04:53.779 --> 00:04:58.139
running the ball. on Sunday. He was okay, but

00:04:58.139 --> 00:05:00.899
that's another problem that I have is running

00:05:00.899 --> 00:05:04.399
the ball, it seems like they get a lot more penalties

00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:08.519
from that asshole Juwan Taylor. Number 74. Yeah,

00:05:08.519 --> 00:05:12.899
number 74. So maybe they're afraid to run it

00:05:12.899 --> 00:05:14.759
because that guy's such an idiot, he doesn't

00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:17.319
know how to not flinch. And that is all on the

00:05:17.319 --> 00:05:20.480
front office and coaching staff. It is. If your

00:05:20.480 --> 00:05:24.379
starter... is so bad that you have to modify

00:05:24.379 --> 00:05:27.680
your game plan to accommodate him, then what

00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:29.500
the hell are you doing in that front office anyway?

00:05:30.759 --> 00:05:34.060
They need to change schemes. I mean, you know,

00:05:34.120 --> 00:05:36.100
meet the new boss, same as the old boss. Yeah.

00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:38.620
I mean, that's what you got. You got an offensive

00:05:38.620 --> 00:05:42.180
line that's worthless in some aspects. You have

00:05:42.180 --> 00:05:43.860
a couple of really good guys, and then the rest

00:05:43.860 --> 00:05:46.800
might not even be there. Yeah, that's true. You

00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:49.550
have subpar blocking. And a lot of that is on

00:05:49.550 --> 00:05:52.670
Kelsey, too. Kelsey doesn't look to me like he's

00:05:52.670 --> 00:06:01.610
much of a blocker anymore either. Yeah. I remember

00:06:01.610 --> 00:06:04.069
seeing Kelsey when he started learning how to

00:06:04.069 --> 00:06:05.949
block, and he became a really good blocker. Yeah,

00:06:05.949 --> 00:06:07.689
because at first it was kind of like, well, he's

00:06:07.689 --> 00:06:09.810
a guy that can go out and run some routes. But,

00:06:09.829 --> 00:06:11.769
yeah, he wasn't much for the blocking game. And

00:06:11.769 --> 00:06:13.850
then he learned how to block to his credit. He

00:06:13.850 --> 00:06:17.360
focused hard. He learned. A lot of it was Andy

00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:20.120
Reid coming on board, too. Andy Reid knows how

00:06:20.120 --> 00:06:24.160
to process and harness these guys. I forgot who

00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:30.420
the coach was before that. It wasn't Todd Haley.

00:06:30.639 --> 00:06:33.319
It was after Todd Haley. Oh, well. Romeo Cornell

00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:35.120
was in there somewhere. I think it might have

00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:39.300
been Cornell. Well, no, actually. Yeah, I don't

00:06:39.300 --> 00:06:42.939
know. Well, anyhow, it doesn't matter. When they

00:06:42.939 --> 00:06:48.439
got Reid. That's when they started having discipline

00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:52.160
in areas like that. But I also wonder if they

00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:54.899
didn't let things grow old on the bottom. Yeah,

00:06:54.920 --> 00:06:59.579
that's what Hank Stram did in the 70s. I don't

00:06:59.579 --> 00:07:03.620
see Kelsey making a lot of effort to block. It

00:07:03.620 --> 00:07:05.860
seems like they've kind of taken a lot of that

00:07:05.860 --> 00:07:09.259
responsibility away from him. Well, and also

00:07:09.259 --> 00:07:13.639
the injury to Xavier Worthy. No. That he caused.

00:07:13.959 --> 00:07:17.540
Yeah. And which he admitted and apologized for.

00:07:19.639 --> 00:07:26.220
That right there. There are just too many things

00:07:26.220 --> 00:07:28.339
going on with him right now that are detrimental

00:07:28.339 --> 00:07:31.980
to the team. Yeah. He had that one really nice

00:07:31.980 --> 00:07:35.680
fingertip catch on fourth down, but then he deflected

00:07:35.680 --> 00:07:37.420
the ball into somebody's hands in the end zone.

00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:40.579
Again. Again. And Mahomes tried to take the blame

00:07:40.579 --> 00:07:42.379
for that because he's a good teammate, but no,

00:07:42.439 --> 00:07:44.600
that was Kelsey. No, the look on his face said

00:07:44.600 --> 00:07:47.259
it all when they panned him. He wanted to kill

00:07:47.259 --> 00:07:51.180
him. Yeah. How must that feel for Patrick Mahomes

00:07:51.180 --> 00:07:53.620
that here's this guy that's just been an automatic

00:07:53.620 --> 00:07:56.680
for all these years and now he's fading? That's

00:07:56.680 --> 00:07:59.740
the problem. The transition. Yeah. They're having

00:07:59.740 --> 00:08:01.860
problems with the transition, not because of

00:08:01.860 --> 00:08:04.319
the talent, but because of injuries and boneheaded

00:08:04.319 --> 00:08:07.360
moves like rushing Rice. He's out for six games

00:08:07.360 --> 00:08:10.500
fucking us because he's an idiot. Yeah. Let's

00:08:10.500 --> 00:08:12.279
hope he's not an idiot anymore, but he certainly

00:08:12.279 --> 00:08:14.160
was that day. He better get his head out of his

00:08:14.160 --> 00:08:15.839
ass because I'll tell you what, if he doesn't

00:08:15.839 --> 00:08:17.899
have a good season after these six games, you

00:08:17.899 --> 00:08:20.420
cut him. Get him the fuck out of here. I'm tired

00:08:20.420 --> 00:08:23.139
of bullshit like this. Yeah, I'm starting to

00:08:23.139 --> 00:08:28.079
get a short amount of patience as you. No. I'm

00:08:28.079 --> 00:08:29.839
not willing to sit here and wait three or four

00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:32.679
years for somebody to reveal their potential.

00:08:32.779 --> 00:08:35.240
Injured last year, missing six this year. No.

00:08:35.720 --> 00:08:37.519
Especially when you see other teams that are

00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:41.200
getting production right away. It doesn't have

00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:43.200
to take two or three years before you're really

00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:45.139
getting what you wanted out of the guy. That's

00:08:45.139 --> 00:08:47.539
another thing that I have problems with, the

00:08:47.539 --> 00:08:52.139
development. It's hard to believe that we have

00:08:52.139 --> 00:08:54.840
such a successful team when you look at it on

00:08:54.840 --> 00:08:57.419
the surface sometimes. Yeah, they seem to go

00:08:57.419 --> 00:08:59.600
for the long -term projects. That's one of their

00:08:59.600 --> 00:09:02.019
favorite things. Find the guy that was injured.

00:09:02.720 --> 00:09:05.019
and didn't get good stats or find the guy with

00:09:05.019 --> 00:09:07.320
all this raw talent and ability and then we'll

00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:10.940
groom him. But then again, Kedarious Tony. Yeah.

00:09:11.100 --> 00:09:13.539
We may not have won that Super Bowl without him.

00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:17.360
Yeah. So, I don't know. You know what? Playing

00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:21.620
the other side. Yeah, that's – when it does kind

00:09:21.620 --> 00:09:23.460
of work out their way, that's when they say,

00:09:23.519 --> 00:09:25.500
see, it works. We're going to keep doing it.

00:09:25.580 --> 00:09:27.559
They have been to five out of six Super Bowls.

00:09:27.679 --> 00:09:29.419
Remember, Croponzo. And they have won three of

00:09:29.419 --> 00:09:33.169
them. Croponzo Thorpe. Where do I know that name

00:09:33.169 --> 00:09:36.990
from? Wide receiver. Crap Ponzo. Crap Ponzo,

00:09:37.029 --> 00:09:41.289
okay. He was touted to be wonderful. He was nothing.

00:09:42.470 --> 00:09:45.529
Ryan Sims was a defensive lineman. Oh, I remember

00:09:45.529 --> 00:09:50.070
him, yeah. Total bust. Total bust. And kind of

00:09:50.070 --> 00:09:53.830
pompous, too, if I remember correctly. On and

00:09:53.830 --> 00:09:56.830
on and on. Yeah. So, do you want to move off

00:09:56.830 --> 00:09:59.720
of the Chiefs and go to the Tush Push? One more

00:09:59.720 --> 00:10:01.360
thing I want to say about the Chiefs, and this

00:10:01.360 --> 00:10:04.879
is something that I heard on the show yesterday.

00:10:06.820 --> 00:10:10.639
The ones that are not as good as us. Yes. Yeah,

00:10:10.740 --> 00:10:12.399
we feel sorry for them. Yeah, but we've got to

00:10:12.399 --> 00:10:15.100
leave some airtime free. Yeah, we do, yes. They

00:10:15.100 --> 00:10:21.240
were saying in the game against the Eagles, Jalen

00:10:21.240 --> 00:10:26.639
Hurts had 25 or 26 pass attempts. The Chiefs

00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:33.059
blitzed him on 16 of those. Now you combine that

00:10:33.059 --> 00:10:36.259
with the number of times the Chiefs have called

00:10:36.259 --> 00:10:39.440
a zero blitz this year, which is nobody's in

00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:42.759
coverage, you're sending all 11 guys in. So zero

00:10:42.759 --> 00:10:45.480
coverage, everybody's on blitz, you've got to

00:10:45.480 --> 00:10:47.379
get to the quarterback because nobody's in coverage.

00:10:47.820 --> 00:10:50.220
In the first two games, they've done that 14

00:10:50.220 --> 00:10:56.779
times. And with the exception about... five teams,

00:10:57.039 --> 00:11:00.340
that's more than all of the rest of the league

00:11:00.340 --> 00:11:03.919
combined. I've got a question. That's a great

00:11:03.919 --> 00:11:05.799
point you put up. I've got a question. Yeah.

00:11:06.399 --> 00:11:10.200
Does Spagnuolo not have very much faith in the

00:11:10.200 --> 00:11:13.879
backfield? I think it's because the D -line isn't

00:11:13.879 --> 00:11:15.440
where it's supposed to be. That's where it is.

00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:18.039
Yeah. They don't trust the D -line to get the

00:11:18.039 --> 00:11:19.860
pressure all by itself, even though we spent

00:11:19.860 --> 00:11:24.000
money on Carl Loftus and Chris Jones and O'Menehu.

00:11:25.000 --> 00:11:28.200
And on and on and on. And they don't trust the

00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:30.019
D -line to get there all by themselves. They

00:11:30.019 --> 00:11:32.960
have to blitz over and over and over. Chris Jones

00:11:32.960 --> 00:11:35.059
is a great player, but, I mean, I don't know.

00:11:35.179 --> 00:11:37.860
It seems like he misses a lot. They've figured

00:11:37.860 --> 00:11:39.980
him out. He is a great player, great talent,

00:11:40.200 --> 00:11:42.399
amazing physical ability, but I think they've

00:11:42.399 --> 00:11:44.720
figured him out. Well, look at the game against

00:11:44.720 --> 00:11:48.379
the Chargers where he took and he held off. when

00:11:48.379 --> 00:11:52.299
he was supposed to go in after Herbert, and he

00:11:52.299 --> 00:11:54.200
admitted it afterwards. He goes, yeah, he goes,

00:11:54.259 --> 00:11:56.399
I thought it was going to work like that, and

00:11:56.399 --> 00:12:01.899
I blew it. So, okay. I don't agree with the freelancing

00:12:01.899 --> 00:12:04.460
either, because if he was doing an extraordinary

00:12:04.460 --> 00:12:07.019
job, then you would let him free and go, okay,

00:12:07.059 --> 00:12:09.299
Derek Thomas is pretty much like, they're like,

00:12:09.379 --> 00:12:11.679
just get the guy, okay? Whatever it takes, get

00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:15.039
the guy, and he would. That's not what you have

00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:18.570
with Chris Jones. No. Chris Jones is a big guy

00:12:18.570 --> 00:12:21.990
that can break up plays, but he hasn't been.

00:12:23.230 --> 00:12:26.330
Yeah, and it's not the scheme anymore where you

00:12:26.330 --> 00:12:29.370
can just let one guy improvise. You need to know

00:12:29.370 --> 00:12:32.730
exactly what all 11 guys are doing every moment

00:12:32.730 --> 00:12:35.590
on every play. It should be an orchestrated attack

00:12:35.590 --> 00:12:38.529
every time. Yeah. Because that's where the game's

00:12:38.529 --> 00:12:41.629
played. It's a game of chess. Only probably even

00:12:41.629 --> 00:12:44.950
more intricate than chess, as odd as that seems.

00:12:45.800 --> 00:12:48.120
I would agree, because in chess, you've got one

00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:51.779
piece moving per turn. In football, you've got

00:12:51.779 --> 00:12:54.720
22 pieces moving all at the same time, and then

00:12:54.720 --> 00:12:56.100
you have to stop and figure out what happened.

00:12:56.940 --> 00:12:59.200
That's a little more difficult. That's another

00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:02.039
thing. You see them on the sideline, right? They

00:13:02.039 --> 00:13:04.000
have these little iPads and stuff. It's like,

00:13:04.039 --> 00:13:06.600
what are you getting off of that? Are you really

00:13:06.600 --> 00:13:09.879
figuring something out? I don't think so. I think

00:13:09.879 --> 00:13:14.220
they're playing Nintendo. They're still getting

00:13:14.220 --> 00:13:18.440
money. from Microsoft to use their official.

00:13:18.639 --> 00:13:21.460
So they have to be seen a certain number of minutes

00:13:21.460 --> 00:13:23.279
per broadcast. I bet you're right. So I think

00:13:23.279 --> 00:13:25.840
a lot of those are fake or not even turned on.

00:13:25.980 --> 00:13:27.080
I bet you're right. And they're just telling,

00:13:27.179 --> 00:13:29.539
hey, go walk around the sideline holding this

00:13:29.539 --> 00:13:31.480
and make sure the camera sees you so we satisfy

00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:34.000
the number of on -screen minutes for the company

00:13:34.000 --> 00:13:37.419
name and logo. Yeah. It's not about football

00:13:37.419 --> 00:13:40.330
anymore. It's about making money off of it. football.

00:13:40.549 --> 00:13:42.210
Yeah, why didn't I think of that? That's right.

00:13:42.370 --> 00:13:44.269
They don't, yeah, they're probably not looking

00:13:44.269 --> 00:13:47.710
at anything. Yeah, yeah. It's like those cooking

00:13:47.710 --> 00:13:50.549
shows or home improvement shows. Stills of Aaron

00:13:50.549 --> 00:13:53.230
Andrews. This is not a home improvement show.

00:13:53.509 --> 00:13:59.049
This is a show about making money. Yes. And pretending

00:13:59.049 --> 00:14:01.610
to improve a home is how they make money, but

00:14:01.610 --> 00:14:04.690
this show is not here to improve homes or fix

00:14:04.690 --> 00:14:07.129
homes, just like the Chiefs are not here to win

00:14:07.129 --> 00:14:11.120
football games. They're here to make money. And

00:14:11.120 --> 00:14:13.659
if winning football games makes them more money,

00:14:13.700 --> 00:14:15.960
then they're going to do that. If keeping a bunch

00:14:15.960 --> 00:14:19.620
of famous players on the roster that really aren't

00:14:19.620 --> 00:14:21.500
performing anymore makes them money, they're

00:14:21.500 --> 00:14:23.440
going to do that. That's true. It's not about

00:14:23.440 --> 00:14:26.019
winning unless winning makes you money. Yeah.

00:14:27.240 --> 00:14:33.340
You know, that's a good point. Sorry to be so

00:14:33.340 --> 00:14:37.879
cynical. No, no, no. No, I like it. I like what

00:14:37.879 --> 00:14:40.279
you said. Seriously, look at the whole thing

00:14:40.279 --> 00:14:42.179
of football. None of that would move an inch

00:14:42.179 --> 00:14:45.620
unless lots of money was changing hands. There's

00:14:45.620 --> 00:14:48.259
no way people would just do that for fun. There

00:14:48.259 --> 00:14:50.539
are people who go out and play disc golf for

00:14:50.539 --> 00:14:54.419
fun or regular golf just for fun. NFL would cease

00:14:54.419 --> 00:14:57.279
to exist unless it was being massively funded

00:14:57.279 --> 00:15:00.519
and paid for. I agree. It just couldn't exist

00:15:00.519 --> 00:15:05.940
anymore. Yeah. Well, I mean... Look, I'm going

00:15:05.940 --> 00:15:07.940
to go ahead and cap it off with this. Okay. I

00:15:07.940 --> 00:15:11.419
think the Chiefs are okay. Yeah, I think they're

00:15:11.419 --> 00:15:13.559
going to be okay. Yeah, yeah, because they could

00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:16.559
have won both games. Yeah. If one play, well,

00:15:16.679 --> 00:15:18.740
actually, both of them came down to Kelsey. Yeah,

00:15:18.779 --> 00:15:21.639
unfortunately. Yeah. Yeah, that was the comment

00:15:21.639 --> 00:15:24.320
I heard about the first game is that the Chiefs

00:15:24.320 --> 00:15:26.720
have shown you can beat the Eagles. It's just

00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:29.059
they couldn't do it that day. Yeah. They were

00:15:29.059 --> 00:15:30.639
close to it, and they showed everybody, look,

00:15:30.679 --> 00:15:33.350
you can. You can beat the Eagles. Everybody was

00:15:33.350 --> 00:15:37.149
like, oh, this team scores 40 on everybody. Oh,

00:15:37.309 --> 00:15:40.090
they're a death machine. Well, they only scored

00:15:40.090 --> 00:15:46.389
20. Only 20. That is not a successful day. I

00:15:46.389 --> 00:15:49.289
mean, the defense is doing decent against both

00:15:49.289 --> 00:15:52.990
opponents, but it's taking massive amounts of

00:15:52.990 --> 00:15:55.190
blitzing to get it done, and then we give up

00:15:55.190 --> 00:15:57.389
a lot of big plays. Yeah, and some of that is

00:15:57.389 --> 00:16:01.809
Spagnuolo's blood. He's a very aggressive guy.

00:16:02.590 --> 00:16:04.669
And, again, I have to go back to this. As bad

00:16:04.669 --> 00:16:10.149
as it looked at times, he gets it done. Yeah.

00:16:10.230 --> 00:16:12.049
He has one more ring than Andy Reid, doesn't

00:16:12.049 --> 00:16:15.169
he? Yeah, he does. Yeah. Do you remember the

00:16:15.169 --> 00:16:20.009
Cowboys flex defense from the 70s? Yes. It was

00:16:20.009 --> 00:16:22.350
the bend but don't break. That was Tom Landry

00:16:22.350 --> 00:16:24.850
was the head coach at that point. His idea was

00:16:24.850 --> 00:16:27.830
we're not going to gamble. We're not going to

00:16:27.830 --> 00:16:30.580
go all out and stop something. They're going

00:16:30.580 --> 00:16:32.820
to complete some passes. They're going to get

00:16:32.820 --> 00:16:35.159
some runs. But we're going to limit them to short,

00:16:35.279 --> 00:16:38.940
modest gains. Or to three points while you're

00:16:38.940 --> 00:16:43.000
scoring seven. Yeah, yeah. And the gamble was

00:16:43.000 --> 00:16:46.899
we can make you take 10, 11 plays to get down

00:16:46.899 --> 00:16:48.740
the field, and you're going to make a mistake.

00:16:49.059 --> 00:16:51.139
And then we're going to get the ball back from

00:16:51.139 --> 00:16:53.120
you. But you're not going to score in, like,

00:16:53.120 --> 00:16:55.200
two or three plays. We're going to make you work

00:16:55.200 --> 00:16:57.580
and work and work for it, and you'll make a mistake.

00:16:57.940 --> 00:17:01.210
Yeah, the prevent. Yeah. But that used to work,

00:17:01.309 --> 00:17:04.250
but everybody's gotten better now that you can't

00:17:04.250 --> 00:17:06.230
count on them making a mistake at that point.

00:17:06.309 --> 00:17:09.930
Teams can do 10, 11, 12 play drives and just

00:17:09.930 --> 00:17:13.430
be perfect. Yes. So the flex, bend but don't

00:17:13.430 --> 00:17:16.890
break defense, man, that just doesn't work at

00:17:16.890 --> 00:17:19.170
all anymore. No. Because you've got to commit

00:17:19.170 --> 00:17:23.119
to a game of that for it to work, and wow. If

00:17:23.119 --> 00:17:25.440
there's any whiff of that going on, it's just

00:17:25.440 --> 00:17:28.500
like, well, we'll just play it. Oh, no, you can't

00:17:28.500 --> 00:17:29.680
do that. It's too easy for a game to get away

00:17:29.680 --> 00:17:35.599
from you like that, too. Yep. Yep. That used

00:17:35.599 --> 00:17:38.319
to be the Raiders' M .O. back in the 70s. They'd

00:17:38.319 --> 00:17:40.259
pound you up the middle with the running game.

00:17:40.559 --> 00:17:43.099
That's what she said. Yeah. And then when you

00:17:43.099 --> 00:17:46.539
weren't expecting it, the mad bomber, Daryl LaMonica,

00:17:46.640 --> 00:17:49.400
would throw one 70 yards over your head. And

00:17:49.400 --> 00:17:52.619
Boletnikoff would reel it in and he'd take three

00:17:52.619 --> 00:17:55.140
steps and be in the end zone. And that's how

00:17:55.140 --> 00:17:58.299
they'd get ahead. They couldn't play a regular

00:17:58.299 --> 00:18:00.819
type of football game. They had to go for the

00:18:00.819 --> 00:18:02.940
big play every now and then. And it worked. They

00:18:02.940 --> 00:18:04.740
got some championships that way. They did. Yeah,

00:18:04.799 --> 00:18:08.140
that's true. It's interesting to see how the

00:18:08.140 --> 00:18:11.640
whole thing changes over the years. You've got

00:18:11.640 --> 00:18:13.359
to keep coming up with new stuff because the

00:18:13.359 --> 00:18:16.589
athletes are just... so much more talented, so

00:18:16.589 --> 00:18:19.130
much stronger, so much faster. It's just crazy.

00:18:19.309 --> 00:18:22.750
I agree. And then now running games, as important

00:18:22.750 --> 00:18:24.809
as they are, they're not viewed the same because

00:18:24.809 --> 00:18:28.450
running backs get hurt so much. Yeah, yeah, the

00:18:28.450 --> 00:18:30.690
days of the, here's our one guy and we're going

00:18:30.690 --> 00:18:33.250
to ride this one. No, not so much. Eddie George

00:18:33.250 --> 00:18:36.650
is. Just at least two. Yeah. Yeah. Eddie George

00:18:36.650 --> 00:18:39.289
was a good workhorse. You put him in there for,

00:18:39.430 --> 00:18:42.650
you'd be up 17 to 10 and you have five minutes

00:18:42.650 --> 00:18:45.670
to kill. Give the ball to him constantly. Yep.

00:18:47.190 --> 00:18:49.190
Terrell Davis for the Broncos. Terrell Davis

00:18:49.190 --> 00:18:52.630
is another one. He would get, like, 170 yards,

00:18:52.690 --> 00:18:55.009
and every other running back on the team combined

00:18:55.009 --> 00:18:57.529
would get, like, 17. Yeah. Because it was just,

00:18:57.589 --> 00:18:58.750
if we're going to run the ball, we're going to

00:18:58.750 --> 00:19:00.869
give it to him. And that used to work great.

00:19:01.190 --> 00:19:04.009
It did. Jamal Charles was really good at that,

00:19:04.210 --> 00:19:06.690
too. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Priest Holmes. Priest

00:19:06.690 --> 00:19:09.109
Holmes was really good. Have you heard about

00:19:09.109 --> 00:19:15.130
Priest Holmes' health? No. He has got a form

00:19:15.130 --> 00:19:19.670
of dementia. It's concentrated mostly in the

00:19:19.670 --> 00:19:23.869
frontal lobes of his brain. His wife is pretty

00:19:23.869 --> 00:19:27.089
sure that it's due to repetitive brain and head

00:19:27.089 --> 00:19:31.710
trauma injuries. She says right now he only really

00:19:31.710 --> 00:19:35.170
remembers two things. One is their daughter's

00:19:35.170 --> 00:19:38.029
name, and two is that he used to play football.

00:19:38.450 --> 00:19:42.299
And that's about all he remembers. Wow. Yeah.

00:19:42.819 --> 00:19:45.640
Oh, that's sad. He's not that old. No, he really

00:19:45.640 --> 00:19:47.900
isn't. But that's why you're not hearing from

00:19:47.900 --> 00:19:51.980
Priest Holmes. He's losing his brain. I'm pretty

00:19:51.980 --> 00:19:54.339
sure he's still in his 50s. Yeah. But I'll find

00:19:54.339 --> 00:19:56.680
out here real quick. I remember when Schottenheimer,

00:19:56.819 --> 00:19:59.859
Marty Schottenheimer, got his dementia so bad,

00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:03.759
he always remembered his wife. And that was it?

00:20:03.880 --> 00:20:06.819
Yeah, he remembered. They'd say, you know, who's

00:20:06.819 --> 00:20:09.000
your wife? He'd say, Pat. And he'd point right

00:20:09.000 --> 00:20:12.450
to her. Yep. It's like he never lost that. No,

00:20:12.450 --> 00:20:16.529
he didn't. And he forgot football. He did. People

00:20:16.529 --> 00:20:18.150
told him, they said, you know that you were a

00:20:18.150 --> 00:20:20.450
coach and you played football? And he'd just

00:20:20.450 --> 00:20:23.549
be like, that's what they say. Yeah, he wasn't

00:20:23.549 --> 00:20:26.250
even really sure what football was. Yeah. Yeah.

00:20:26.829 --> 00:20:29.569
Isn't that, man, yeah, that's sad stuff. The

00:20:29.569 --> 00:20:34.150
sacrifices that these predominantly men make

00:20:34.150 --> 00:20:36.470
to play football, to entertain everybody, is

00:20:36.470 --> 00:20:40.279
just... Something else. He's only 51. Yeah. Oh,

00:20:40.299 --> 00:20:45.299
that's sad. Yeah. Jeez, per guy. So another CTE

00:20:45.299 --> 00:20:48.220
pretty much. Scratch that up on there. Damn.

00:20:49.059 --> 00:20:51.759
Yeah, that's too bad. He was a good guy and a

00:20:51.759 --> 00:20:53.839
great player. He was one of my favorite Chiefs

00:20:53.839 --> 00:20:55.900
players ever. Yeah, yeah. I always forget that

00:20:55.900 --> 00:20:58.130
we got him from Baltimore. Yeah, yeah, because

00:20:58.130 --> 00:21:00.690
they had Jamal Lewis. Yes, they did. Didn't that

00:21:00.690 --> 00:21:03.170
guy? No, it was Jamal Anderson from the Falcons.

00:21:03.250 --> 00:21:05.390
He had the massive thighs. Yeah, yeah, that was

00:21:05.390 --> 00:21:07.569
Anderson from the Falcons. Yeah, but Jamal Lewis.

00:21:07.670 --> 00:21:09.730
Jamal Lewis was pretty good too. Oh, he was huge.

00:21:10.690 --> 00:21:14.289
He was kind of like a Derrick Henry. Just a huge

00:21:14.289 --> 00:21:16.569
guy that you couldn't stop. You could jump on

00:21:16.569 --> 00:21:19.529
top of him or grab his knees. Good luck either

00:21:19.529 --> 00:21:22.009
way. Isn't that weird that for a span we had

00:21:22.009 --> 00:21:26.069
a bunch of really successful running backs in

00:21:26.069 --> 00:21:31.339
the NFL? Name Jamal. That's true. Yeah. So at

00:21:31.339 --> 00:21:34.539
some point in the past, women or whoever were

00:21:34.539 --> 00:21:37.720
naming their children Jamal and apparently bestowing

00:21:37.720 --> 00:21:40.579
football skills on them with that name. I guess

00:21:40.579 --> 00:21:43.740
so. Hey, let's change our names to Jamal. Maybe

00:21:43.740 --> 00:21:47.319
we can make the team. Yeah, let's do it. I'll

00:21:47.319 --> 00:21:49.799
walk on there and they'll go, where's Jamal?

00:21:50.079 --> 00:21:52.259
Yeah, I don't think I could pass for a Jamal.

00:21:52.319 --> 00:21:56.130
I don't either. Right here. Well, if you've got

00:21:56.130 --> 00:21:58.029
a lot more sun, you could probably pass for a

00:21:58.029 --> 00:22:00.930
Jamala. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm seasonal leather.

00:22:01.049 --> 00:22:03.869
Yeah. Yeah, this is true. This is true. But during

00:22:03.869 --> 00:22:06.990
the winter, no, forget it. Well, three of my

00:22:06.990 --> 00:22:09.089
sons are Lebanese. They could probably pass for

00:22:09.089 --> 00:22:10.730
a Jamala. Oh, yeah, that's right. Yeah, they

00:22:10.730 --> 00:22:12.990
could. Yeah, they get a good tan during the summer

00:22:12.990 --> 00:22:15.930
too, don't they? That's funny. Three of them

00:22:15.930 --> 00:22:20.049
are half Lebanese and fairly exotic looking.

00:22:20.150 --> 00:22:24.730
And then my other two sons. are like the palest,

00:22:24.730 --> 00:22:26.769
most white -skinned kids you've ever seen in

00:22:26.769 --> 00:22:30.269
your life. People walk by and go, hmm, I wonder

00:22:30.269 --> 00:22:33.009
what happened there. One, Louis is blonde and

00:22:33.009 --> 00:22:36.089
blue -eyed, and Jeffrey is ginger and blue -eyed.

00:22:36.230 --> 00:22:40.869
Yep. Cool. And both going to college and doing

00:22:40.869 --> 00:22:43.289
well. Yeah. Oh, they're out of college now. Oh,

00:22:43.289 --> 00:22:44.750
they're out of college now. I didn't know that.

00:22:44.869 --> 00:22:47.049
Okay. Are they living in Columbia still? They

00:22:47.049 --> 00:22:48.509
just still live in the town. Yeah, they just

00:22:48.509 --> 00:22:52.720
like the city of Columbia. A lot of females there.

00:22:53.200 --> 00:22:56.119
Yes, they are. They're young men. Let's see.

00:22:56.200 --> 00:22:58.839
I think we got off there. We got stuck on the

00:22:58.839 --> 00:23:01.000
name Jamal and kind of derailed there. Oh, okay.

00:23:01.000 --> 00:23:02.859
All right. Well, the tush bush. You want to go

00:23:02.859 --> 00:23:06.900
into that now? Yes. Let's do that. Well, I used

00:23:06.900 --> 00:23:10.460
to be for it. Yeah, I didn't really like it,

00:23:10.480 --> 00:23:12.180
but I thought, well, it's fair. I mean, they

00:23:12.180 --> 00:23:14.400
figured out something, but it's not really fair,

00:23:14.500 --> 00:23:17.099
is it? No, it isn't. No, after examining it and

00:23:17.099 --> 00:23:19.880
having people bring it up and show it and point

00:23:19.880 --> 00:23:22.680
it out and put circles around it and stuff, it's

00:23:22.680 --> 00:23:26.019
true. It's a form of cheating to me now. Yeah,

00:23:26.119 --> 00:23:29.380
the offense lines up all sides. Yeah. They are

00:23:29.380 --> 00:23:32.619
encroaching into the – there's supposed to be

00:23:32.619 --> 00:23:34.960
a neutral zone there the length of the football,

00:23:35.039 --> 00:23:37.720
and neither the offense nor the defense can encroach

00:23:37.720 --> 00:23:40.279
on that. Only the center can reach out and touch

00:23:40.279 --> 00:23:42.980
it. And also, referees hate it. Yeah. They hate

00:23:42.980 --> 00:23:47.039
it, so I think it's going to end. Yeah, and it's

00:23:47.039 --> 00:23:49.279
interesting. None of the Madden football games

00:23:49.279 --> 00:23:52.059
have figured out how to make that play and get

00:23:52.059 --> 00:23:53.240
it into the game. That's because it's illegal.

00:23:53.579 --> 00:23:56.140
Yeah, it just doesn't work. When they try it,

00:23:56.240 --> 00:23:59.859
it either completely never works or the offense

00:23:59.859 --> 00:24:04.250
gets flagged for encroachment. Yeah. Yeah, it's

00:24:04.250 --> 00:24:05.809
one of those things that they're letting it happen

00:24:05.809 --> 00:24:07.990
in real life because it's popular with the fans.

00:24:08.470 --> 00:24:12.670
And we know this already, that the NFL will ignore

00:24:12.670 --> 00:24:15.910
their own rules if it's working out for them.

00:24:16.089 --> 00:24:18.410
Oh, yeah, yeah. And then a couple years when

00:24:18.410 --> 00:24:20.109
the Eagles – oh, go ahead. I was going to say,

00:24:20.170 --> 00:24:22.890
so to tell the league, hey, this is breaking

00:24:22.890 --> 00:24:28.369
the rules, they're like, yeah, so? Well, the

00:24:28.369 --> 00:24:30.349
good thing now is the referees are helping the

00:24:30.349 --> 00:24:34.160
Eagles instead of us. Yeah. Yeah, we're not getting

00:24:34.160 --> 00:24:35.819
any breaks this year, are we? No, no, no. As

00:24:35.819 --> 00:24:37.400
a matter of fact, it's the opposite now. They

00:24:37.400 --> 00:24:39.700
don't want us in there, so they are deliberately

00:24:39.700 --> 00:24:42.460
influencing the game against us. And you know

00:24:42.460 --> 00:24:44.900
what? That is perfect. Yeah. I think that is

00:24:44.900 --> 00:24:46.940
absolutely perfect. Do it. Because now the Chiefs

00:24:46.940 --> 00:24:49.759
can fight all year, and nobody can claim that

00:24:49.759 --> 00:24:52.000
they would hand it to them. And if they can get

00:24:52.000 --> 00:24:54.180
into the Super Bowl and win it, then it should

00:24:54.180 --> 00:24:56.220
shut a lot of people up. They already went on

00:24:56.220 --> 00:24:58.740
the road. They already went on the road and won.

00:24:59.210 --> 00:25:01.490
And if they do a wild card and get to there,

00:25:01.609 --> 00:25:03.569
then I think that's even better because they're

00:25:03.569 --> 00:25:05.349
going to have to – man, people are just going

00:25:05.349 --> 00:25:07.890
to have to shut their mouths. Yeah. You go up

00:25:07.890 --> 00:25:10.789
to Buffalo, you win there in January, late January.

00:25:11.049 --> 00:25:13.769
That's tough. Kansas City you win in late January.

00:25:13.890 --> 00:25:17.210
Yeah. Okay. So you win against the other best

00:25:17.210 --> 00:25:21.470
team both times, but you're a fraud. Yeah. So

00:25:21.470 --> 00:25:25.890
anyhow. Yeah. And then the narrative to try to

00:25:25.890 --> 00:25:28.910
say that it's the Chiefs doing this, no. No,

00:25:28.910 --> 00:25:31.470
no. Because the other 31 teams would gang up

00:25:31.470 --> 00:25:34.130
and make sure it stopped. It's the league doing

00:25:34.130 --> 00:25:37.589
everything. You know, if they pick the Chiefs

00:25:37.589 --> 00:25:40.069
to be the recipient of all the good calls, the

00:25:40.069 --> 00:25:42.009
Chiefs had nothing to do with it. No. Because

00:25:42.009 --> 00:25:43.769
next year they'll pick a different team. And

00:25:43.769 --> 00:25:46.230
three years ago they picked a different team.

00:25:46.329 --> 00:25:49.269
It's not the Chiefs. No. They're just the ones

00:25:49.269 --> 00:25:51.250
being picked and going along with it. Because

00:25:51.250 --> 00:25:54.660
why wouldn't you go along with it? If it's making

00:25:54.660 --> 00:25:56.400
money, that's all they care about is they look

00:25:56.400 --> 00:25:58.940
down and go, wow. So they're selling a lot of

00:25:58.940 --> 00:26:01.599
green jerseys right now. So you're going to see

00:26:01.599 --> 00:26:04.640
things going their way. So imagine you go to

00:26:04.640 --> 00:26:08.390
work and the boss tells you, you know what? The

00:26:08.390 --> 00:26:11.170
whole corporate has decided to make you an example

00:26:11.170 --> 00:26:13.210
of our favorite employee. So you're going to

00:26:13.210 --> 00:26:15.910
get a raise and an office and someone's going

00:26:15.910 --> 00:26:18.809
to do your work for you and you're going to get

00:26:18.809 --> 00:26:21.690
a lot more time off. You'd say, hell yeah, sign

00:26:21.690 --> 00:26:24.089
me up. I'd strip naked and walk around everywhere

00:26:24.089 --> 00:26:26.500
because I could. And then, like, a year later,

00:26:26.559 --> 00:26:27.960
they're like, oh, yeah, we're done with you,

00:26:27.980 --> 00:26:29.660
and now it's this other person. I put my clothes

00:26:29.660 --> 00:26:32.720
back on. Yeah. But how silly would it be to blame

00:26:32.720 --> 00:26:35.259
you? Like, you're telling your employer, oh,

00:26:35.319 --> 00:26:37.599
you have to treat me this way. You have to. No.

00:26:37.960 --> 00:26:41.000
No, no. Tail's not wagging the dog. No, you're

00:26:41.000 --> 00:26:43.750
right. The chiefs are on the receiving end. The

00:26:43.750 --> 00:26:45.750
hose is going to get shut off at some point.

00:26:45.829 --> 00:26:48.309
And it already has. I think it's starting to

00:26:48.309 --> 00:26:50.549
be, yeah. I think somebody's out there stepping

00:26:50.549 --> 00:26:52.890
on the hose to cut the water flow. They are.

00:26:53.390 --> 00:26:55.910
They saw, and they're like, all right, we're

00:26:55.910 --> 00:26:58.509
going to change things up. They got a new sexy,

00:26:58.730 --> 00:27:00.849
and they're going with it. And keep in mind that

00:27:00.849 --> 00:27:04.369
if the NFL's official gambling partners don't

00:27:04.369 --> 00:27:07.730
have a problem with what's going on, then you

00:27:07.730 --> 00:27:10.250
can be sure that the league and the bookies are...

00:27:10.670 --> 00:27:12.630
calling the shots and running the show. Well,

00:27:12.750 --> 00:27:15.009
I mean, it really well could keep going on, but

00:27:15.009 --> 00:27:17.049
I kind of look at since gambling is involved

00:27:17.049 --> 00:27:18.849
so heavily that some people are going to have

00:27:18.849 --> 00:27:20.470
a problem with that going, hey, wait a minute.

00:27:20.750 --> 00:27:24.490
These teams do the tush push all the time, and

00:27:24.490 --> 00:27:27.670
it's cheating us out of money. Here's an interesting

00:27:27.670 --> 00:27:30.970
thing to think about. Missouri has just now legalized

00:27:30.970 --> 00:27:34.710
sports betting. So you know a lot of people are

00:27:34.710 --> 00:27:36.670
going to jump on and want to bet on the Chiefs.

00:27:36.769 --> 00:27:39.650
Yes. So here's an opportunity to set people up

00:27:39.650 --> 00:27:42.450
with expectations and then yank the rug out from

00:27:42.450 --> 00:27:44.230
under them late in the season and make them lose

00:27:44.230 --> 00:27:46.970
all those bets. Oh, yeah. So I think the Chiefs

00:27:46.970 --> 00:27:49.549
season is going to go whichever direction it

00:27:49.549 --> 00:27:53.329
needs to so that the bookies make money. I think

00:27:53.329 --> 00:27:54.950
that I'm going to call it. Okay. I'm going to

00:27:54.950 --> 00:27:57.509
call that. The Chiefs' final record will be whatever

00:27:57.509 --> 00:27:59.210
the bookies tell them it's going to be. Oh, yeah.

00:27:59.289 --> 00:28:01.670
Well, I mean, the Chiefs are in a transition

00:28:01.670 --> 00:28:04.710
period with a receiver core and their defense

00:28:04.710 --> 00:28:07.829
both. You know, the fact is, is the way the NFL

00:28:07.829 --> 00:28:11.630
is structured, and which I have no problem with.

00:28:11.730 --> 00:28:13.990
I have a problem with baseball that doesn't have

00:28:13.990 --> 00:28:18.089
a structure like that. So they know what they're

00:28:18.089 --> 00:28:20.789
doing, and the whole thing is they want you to

00:28:20.789 --> 00:28:23.490
have to constantly rebuild because of money reasons.

00:28:24.829 --> 00:28:27.789
And I agree with him. So the Chiefs always have

00:28:27.789 --> 00:28:29.630
to be really inventive because they're putting

00:28:29.630 --> 00:28:32.829
out a lot of money on players that, I don't know,

00:28:32.910 --> 00:28:35.509
you know, Kelsey and Chris Jones may not quite

00:28:35.509 --> 00:28:37.710
be worth it now, I don't know, but, you know,

00:28:37.730 --> 00:28:39.250
they're putting out a lot of money. Yeah, they

00:28:39.250 --> 00:28:41.990
are. So they have to be inventive on who they

00:28:41.990 --> 00:28:45.609
have, which means a lot of rookies. And you can

00:28:45.609 --> 00:28:47.650
always find yourself in the position that the

00:28:47.650 --> 00:28:51.230
Bengals do now, is that they had to pay Joe Burrow

00:28:51.230 --> 00:28:54.039
a bunch of money. And now they've lost him for

00:28:54.039 --> 00:28:56.299
the bulk of the season again. I know. And there's

00:28:56.299 --> 00:28:58.660
nothing you can do. I mean, what were you going

00:28:58.660 --> 00:29:00.900
to do, not sign him because he might get injured?

00:29:00.980 --> 00:29:03.240
That's stupid. Hey, Skippy. You just got to do

00:29:03.240 --> 00:29:08.799
it. Skippy. Skippy. Where are you now? A little

00:29:08.799 --> 00:29:11.119
Skippy ball -less. Yeah, a little skip -turned

00:29:11.119 --> 00:29:14.880
ball -less. Yeah, where are you now? You know,

00:29:14.900 --> 00:29:16.960
when things don't work out for him, he just throws

00:29:16.960 --> 00:29:20.220
a tantrum. Yeah. Yeah. Bill Burrow's still the

00:29:20.220 --> 00:29:22.880
best. They stepped on his toe intentionally.

00:29:23.299 --> 00:29:26.500
Yes. He's run off to find Mrs. Golfenstein and

00:29:26.500 --> 00:29:30.380
cry on her shoulder. Yeah. Yeah, we still need

00:29:30.380 --> 00:29:33.700
to find her so she can turn Rob back. Yeah. It's

00:29:33.700 --> 00:29:36.279
really sad. It is. Rob's getting molested by

00:29:36.279 --> 00:29:37.880
a bunch of monkeys, and he can't do anything

00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:40.900
about it. Although, you know, he's doing a lot

00:29:40.900 --> 00:29:42.859
of work on TV commercials. Yes, he is. Every

00:29:42.859 --> 00:29:45.039
time you see those little black and white monkeys

00:29:45.039 --> 00:29:46.900
running around, that's Ronald. Yeah, he's there.

00:29:47.099 --> 00:29:49.460
So he's doing well. And he's easy to control.

00:29:49.680 --> 00:29:52.200
He loves peanuts. Yeah. Yeah, you just throw

00:29:52.200 --> 00:29:54.619
peanuts in front of him and he goes after them.

00:29:56.000 --> 00:30:00.420
Rob's going to be listening to this. Motherfuckers.

00:30:00.440 --> 00:30:04.319
He's like, quit talking about me, man. I remember

00:30:04.319 --> 00:30:06.480
that one time they didn't have a female monkey,

00:30:06.559 --> 00:30:08.480
so they dressed him in a miniskirt. Oh, he was

00:30:08.480 --> 00:30:13.140
mad. Yeah. Oh, he was so mad. Okay, all right.

00:30:13.180 --> 00:30:16.880
Let's get off Rob. Okay. Okay, the tush push.

00:30:17.059 --> 00:30:18.740
Do you think they should ban it, and do you think

00:30:18.740 --> 00:30:25.440
they will? Yeah, I think so. It is clearly not

00:30:25.440 --> 00:30:28.509
a legal formation. I know they've been letting

00:30:28.509 --> 00:30:32.390
that slide. The potential for injury, as you

00:30:32.390 --> 00:30:35.990
mentioned, is higher in that kind of situation.

00:30:37.329 --> 00:30:40.230
The ball can change hands five or six times in

00:30:40.230 --> 00:30:42.349
that pile, and you never know. How are you going

00:30:42.349 --> 00:30:45.450
to tell exactly where the ball is at the end

00:30:45.450 --> 00:30:49.250
of it? When does forward momentum stop? I guess

00:30:49.250 --> 00:30:50.849
if you've got the chip in the ball, you can get

00:30:50.849 --> 00:30:54.589
some of that. Yeah. As long as it's really popular

00:30:54.589 --> 00:30:56.569
with the fans, they're going to try to keep it

00:30:56.569 --> 00:30:59.789
around. I don't know if it's popular anymore.

00:30:59.789 --> 00:31:02.089
It was at first, but now I think people are getting

00:31:02.089 --> 00:31:04.750
tired of it because they do view it as cheating.

00:31:05.069 --> 00:31:06.829
I think what it's going to take is for it to

00:31:06.829 --> 00:31:10.150
start not working and then for some players to

00:31:10.150 --> 00:31:12.589
get seriously injured because of it. Then people

00:31:12.589 --> 00:31:13.710
are going to say, you know what? That's when

00:31:13.710 --> 00:31:15.990
you're going to see it really happen. Because

00:31:15.990 --> 00:31:20.880
the chop block. Is illegal. Is illegal, but it

00:31:20.880 --> 00:31:23.680
used to be perfectly legal. Yeah. Or sometimes

00:31:23.680 --> 00:31:25.720
they call it the crack back. The crack back,

00:31:25.799 --> 00:31:28.599
yeah. It used to be completely legal, but they

00:31:28.599 --> 00:31:30.519
were losing players left and right to injury.

00:31:30.559 --> 00:31:32.200
That's the only reason they made it illegal,

00:31:32.500 --> 00:31:34.460
because the fans loved it. They loved seeing

00:31:34.460 --> 00:31:36.539
the players get just creamed out there on the

00:31:36.539 --> 00:31:40.480
field. So it's going to take some serious injuries

00:31:40.480 --> 00:31:42.079
for the league to say, you know what, this just

00:31:42.079 --> 00:31:44.740
isn't financially worth it. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:31:44.960 --> 00:31:49.660
And also, hey, NFL. You guys are being dry jacked.

00:31:49.660 --> 00:31:53.519
Watch out for the Chiefs. Right now, you're fucking

00:31:53.519 --> 00:31:56.299
coming in your pants. A little bit later, it's

00:31:56.299 --> 00:31:59.900
done. Yep. I can see the Chiefs sitting back

00:31:59.900 --> 00:32:01.859
saying, yeah, go ahead, write us off. Yeah, write

00:32:01.859 --> 00:32:03.680
us off. I mean, that's what they do good at.

00:32:03.779 --> 00:32:06.700
I mean, billboard material, bulletin board material

00:32:06.700 --> 00:32:08.740
is what it is. You know, you walk by and go,

00:32:08.819 --> 00:32:12.779
hey, hey, you guys see this one? Yeah. Look what

00:32:12.779 --> 00:32:15.779
they just said about you. Yep. Yeah. And it's

00:32:15.779 --> 00:32:18.460
great motivation. So, do you want to go on to

00:32:18.460 --> 00:32:21.180
little Joey Burrow? Let's talk about little Joseph.

00:32:21.500 --> 00:32:28.880
Okay. Little JoJo, again, is injured. Yeah. He's

00:32:28.880 --> 00:32:30.960
going to be out at least three months. Yeah.

00:32:31.920 --> 00:32:33.920
Okay. Probably the season, but they're saying

00:32:33.920 --> 00:32:36.640
three months. A season ago, he was out all year.

00:32:37.759 --> 00:32:40.779
Last season, they were supposed to go to the

00:32:40.779 --> 00:32:42.900
Super Bowl, according to a lot of people. Yeah.

00:32:43.380 --> 00:32:45.640
They didn't make the playoffs. No. Playoffs.

00:32:45.680 --> 00:32:49.890
Playoffs. Okay, so this year, looks like you're

00:32:49.890 --> 00:32:52.869
doing great 2 -0. Burrow's out for at least three

00:32:52.869 --> 00:32:57.049
months. I think they got ripped off. They paid

00:32:57.049 --> 00:33:00.710
him a shit ton of money. Yeah, yeah. Well, it

00:33:00.710 --> 00:33:03.829
was their choice. Absolutely 100 % their choice

00:33:03.829 --> 00:33:09.589
to pay him. But, yeah, look at them now. There's

00:33:09.589 --> 00:33:12.289
millions going to Joe Burrow this year, and they're

00:33:12.289 --> 00:33:15.269
getting zero from him. Nothing. And now they

00:33:15.269 --> 00:33:17.089
get a... They're going to find somebody to take

00:33:17.089 --> 00:33:20.490
his place and pay that person too. Yep. Everybody

00:33:20.490 --> 00:33:22.609
else that they signed for large amounts of money,

00:33:22.650 --> 00:33:25.309
like Trey Hendrickson, so they could play and

00:33:25.309 --> 00:33:28.029
support the team and help them. Now all that

00:33:28.029 --> 00:33:31.009
was you might as well not have. Yeah. You know,

00:33:31.049 --> 00:33:33.230
with Burrow out for the majority of the season,

00:33:33.289 --> 00:33:35.569
why wouldn't you let Trey Hendrickson sit out

00:33:35.569 --> 00:33:37.730
the season too and not pay him? It doesn't matter

00:33:37.730 --> 00:33:41.549
anymore. No, I agree. Yeah, yeah. So, yeah, you

00:33:41.549 --> 00:33:45.640
paid Jamar Chase and you paid – Oh, I forgot

00:33:45.640 --> 00:33:48.220
the other guy's name. Higgins. Higgins. You paid

00:33:48.220 --> 00:33:51.240
T. Higgins and now Hendrickson. So there's not

00:33:51.240 --> 00:33:54.440
a whole lot of money left. So anywhere that joins

00:33:54.440 --> 00:33:56.480
Cincinnati, you're going to have to do it for

00:33:56.480 --> 00:33:59.980
a smaller price. Yeah. I imagine there are probably

00:33:59.980 --> 00:34:03.039
emergency funds available under the table from

00:34:03.039 --> 00:34:05.119
the league as in whole because they're not going

00:34:05.119 --> 00:34:08.980
to let a team fail. No. You know, they're not

00:34:08.980 --> 00:34:11.539
going to let a team go bankrupt or get themselves

00:34:11.539 --> 00:34:16.179
in unwinnable salary cap hell. It's like they're

00:34:16.179 --> 00:34:18.000
going to get them some help and relief under

00:34:18.000 --> 00:34:20.340
the table that we don't know about because the

00:34:20.340 --> 00:34:23.519
NFL doesn't want a team to flounder that way.

00:34:23.599 --> 00:34:25.199
You'll never rebuild their reputation. I'm sure

00:34:25.199 --> 00:34:29.000
Jacksonville is subsidized. Yeah. Carolina, I'm

00:34:29.000 --> 00:34:31.000
sure, is subsidized until they get profitable.

00:34:31.519 --> 00:34:35.659
Yeah. So, oh well. Do you want it? Well, we both

00:34:35.659 --> 00:34:41.300
think that Joey Burrow is not that guy and that

00:34:41.300 --> 00:34:43.940
he doesn't probably command the salary he got.

00:34:44.000 --> 00:34:48.280
But you know what? It's all fair and great because,

00:34:48.340 --> 00:34:50.719
you know what, he got that much money. That's

00:34:50.719 --> 00:34:53.920
what he deserves. Yep, yep. He negotiated that

00:34:53.920 --> 00:34:58.260
with his agent. Great deal. Yelled at Patrick

00:34:58.260 --> 00:35:03.630
Mahomes for taking less. Yep. I wonder at what

00:35:03.630 --> 00:35:05.610
point Joe Burrow is going to start getting the

00:35:05.610 --> 00:35:09.230
reputation of fragile. I think he already has.

00:35:09.309 --> 00:35:11.369
I would think he already has because this will

00:35:11.369 --> 00:35:13.309
be the second time he's missed the bulk of the

00:35:13.309 --> 00:35:16.969
season. He missed another long stretch, too,

00:35:17.070 --> 00:35:20.190
earlier in his career also. So third time. Yeah,

00:35:20.190 --> 00:35:23.610
third time. Yeah, third time he's had an extended

00:35:23.610 --> 00:35:26.690
injury that's directly impacted their season

00:35:26.690 --> 00:35:29.550
and will. And it's bad enough when it just, you

00:35:29.550 --> 00:35:31.010
know, if it happens, then it'll never happen

00:35:31.010 --> 00:35:35.409
again. But those add up. Yes. And he's had three

00:35:35.409 --> 00:35:38.550
now, and those injuries could recur. More injuries

00:35:38.550 --> 00:35:41.769
could happen. Turf toe is horrible. It's awful.

00:35:41.989 --> 00:35:43.889
Oh, it is like one of the worst things you can

00:35:43.889 --> 00:35:47.449
have because it doesn't completely go away. No.

00:35:47.550 --> 00:35:50.730
Deion Sanders had his toe amputated because of

00:35:50.730 --> 00:35:54.030
turf toe. Yeah. So that tells you how serious

00:35:54.030 --> 00:35:58.139
it can be. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it hangs around

00:35:58.139 --> 00:36:03.880
and hangs around, and basically it's... How would

00:36:03.880 --> 00:36:07.500
you describe it? Like you put a really loose

00:36:07.500 --> 00:36:10.260
sock on your foot, and you can grab the sock

00:36:10.260 --> 00:36:12.920
and twist it around, and your foot stays in place.

00:36:13.179 --> 00:36:16.260
Yes. That's what happened with Joey Burrow's

00:36:16.260 --> 00:36:19.880
toe skin. His toe stayed in place, and all the

00:36:19.880 --> 00:36:24.150
skin moved around it. So... Every connection

00:36:24.150 --> 00:36:27.050
between his muscles and bones and everything

00:36:27.050 --> 00:36:30.429
and his skin was just ripped. And now they all

00:36:30.429 --> 00:36:33.550
have to regrow, and it's insanely painful. If

00:36:33.550 --> 00:36:35.829
he comes back this season... I'll be stunned.

00:36:36.050 --> 00:36:38.429
Yeah, I will too. No matter which foot it is,

00:36:38.530 --> 00:36:40.269
you've got to be able to plant and step on it

00:36:40.269 --> 00:36:43.329
and cut and move. Oh, yeah, and even next season.

00:36:43.530 --> 00:36:45.909
Yeah. This thing could go on a long, long time.

00:36:46.010 --> 00:36:48.349
If he comes back this season, it's still going

00:36:48.349 --> 00:36:50.510
to hurt him next season. He's going to have to

00:36:50.510 --> 00:36:53.170
miss all of this season and seriously rest it

00:36:53.170 --> 00:36:55.929
to be back to 100 % next year. I agree. I think

00:36:55.929 --> 00:36:57.530
that's a decision they're going to have to come

00:36:57.530 --> 00:36:59.230
to. They may have already made that decision,

00:36:59.349 --> 00:37:01.309
and they just don't want to tell anybody because

00:37:01.309 --> 00:37:03.309
people quit coming to the games. Yeah, yeah.

00:37:03.489 --> 00:37:05.610
As long as you tell your fan base you still have

00:37:05.610 --> 00:37:07.449
a chance, they'll still keep coming to the games

00:37:07.449 --> 00:37:09.690
and buy your merchandise, even though you know,

00:37:09.730 --> 00:37:11.570
yeah, we don't got a shot because this guy's

00:37:11.570 --> 00:37:14.590
having surgery next week. Who do we want for

00:37:14.590 --> 00:37:21.679
Gardner Minshew? Who could they dangle? T. Higgins.

00:37:21.760 --> 00:37:27.360
No. Oh, gosh. No, we don't want an attitude like

00:37:27.360 --> 00:37:32.219
that. No. Or Chase. Yeah. Jamar Chase, everything

00:37:32.219 --> 00:37:34.500
that he said where he almost complimented Mahomes,

00:37:34.579 --> 00:37:38.780
he took back again. Fuck him. Jamar, you picked

00:37:38.780 --> 00:37:40.880
the wrong team, plain and simple. Don't be mad

00:37:40.880 --> 00:37:44.800
at us. They had that D -back, Eli Apple, that

00:37:44.800 --> 00:37:48.429
was always fussing. As soon as he got off to

00:37:48.429 --> 00:37:51.449
a different team, he quit talking about the Chiefs.

00:37:51.730 --> 00:37:54.010
Yeah. He was only doing it because he was on

00:37:54.010 --> 00:37:55.929
the Bengals. Then he went to another team and

00:37:55.929 --> 00:37:57.949
was like, okay, who's our rival? Then he started

00:37:57.949 --> 00:38:01.369
talking crap about them. Yeah. The Bengals are

00:38:01.369 --> 00:38:04.130
like this. They're disgruntled at their own demise.

00:38:04.949 --> 00:38:08.829
They did all of this to themselves. True. I mean,

00:38:08.829 --> 00:38:11.289
you can look and say, well, the Bills have been

00:38:11.289 --> 00:38:13.190
in our way and the Chiefs have been in our way.

00:38:13.969 --> 00:38:16.210
That's not our issue. That's your issue. They

00:38:16.210 --> 00:38:18.409
made it one time, and that's because Patrick

00:38:18.409 --> 00:38:20.909
Mahomes gifted it to them. And that's because

00:38:20.909 --> 00:38:22.769
he had to take the game on his back. I'm not

00:38:22.769 --> 00:38:26.889
making anything. Mahomes is perfect. No issues

00:38:26.889 --> 00:38:28.469
with that at all because that's going to happen.

00:38:28.550 --> 00:38:30.409
And that's how they made it to the Super Bowl.

00:38:30.510 --> 00:38:32.969
It wasn't Joe Burrell coming out and throwing

00:38:32.969 --> 00:38:37.389
that explosive last -minute touchdown. I imagine

00:38:37.389 --> 00:38:39.869
that a lot of people tend to remind them of that

00:38:39.869 --> 00:38:43.380
fact. You got into the Super Bowl because somebody

00:38:43.380 --> 00:38:45.239
else would kind of let you in, and then when

00:38:45.239 --> 00:38:47.460
you got there, you stunk it up. Yes. Even if

00:38:47.460 --> 00:38:49.360
it's not completely true, that's what people

00:38:49.360 --> 00:38:51.699
are telling the Bengals, I'm sure. I'm sure they

00:38:51.699 --> 00:38:54.780
are, too. And, look, it's not entirely true,

00:38:54.880 --> 00:38:57.960
of course. Yeah. But a lot of truth is to it,

00:38:57.960 --> 00:39:00.900
though. You have to start looking at public perception,

00:39:01.019 --> 00:39:03.280
and in a way that is more important than what's

00:39:03.280 --> 00:39:05.519
really happening or what the truth is. What do

00:39:05.519 --> 00:39:07.480
people think is happening, and how are they going

00:39:07.480 --> 00:39:09.340
to react based on that? How are they going to

00:39:09.340 --> 00:39:11.539
react to it based on it, yes. You can tell them

00:39:11.539 --> 00:39:13.460
the truth all day long, but if they've decided

00:39:13.460 --> 00:39:14.900
that they're going to believe this thing over

00:39:14.900 --> 00:39:17.320
here and react based on that, you better get

00:39:17.320 --> 00:39:20.639
ready. Yeah. You can shout all day, but that's

00:39:20.639 --> 00:39:23.300
not, no, doesn't matter. No, no, no. Number one,

00:39:23.380 --> 00:39:25.760
nobody gives a shit. Really? Yeah. It'd be like,

00:39:25.780 --> 00:39:28.619
fuck it. Pack it up, go over there. I don't care.

00:39:28.840 --> 00:39:32.460
Yeah. Yeah. So it's just pretty much like people's

00:39:32.460 --> 00:39:35.159
political opinions anymore. I'm like, there's

00:39:35.159 --> 00:39:38.179
plenty of room over there. So go over there and

00:39:38.179 --> 00:39:42.119
speak about it. Leave me the fuck alone. Yeah.

00:39:42.380 --> 00:39:44.659
I've seen a lot of, without getting into too

00:39:44.659 --> 00:39:46.679
much here, I've been seeing a lot of people complain

00:39:46.679 --> 00:39:50.099
about, well, I thought we had free speech. Well,

00:39:50.239 --> 00:39:53.969
you do. But everyone misunderstands it. Because

00:39:53.969 --> 00:39:56.849
the school doesn't teach you properly. Free speech

00:39:56.849 --> 00:39:59.050
is between you and the government. The government

00:39:59.050 --> 00:40:03.349
cannot deny you freedom of speech unless certain

00:40:03.349 --> 00:40:07.090
circumstances. But your employer, there's no

00:40:07.090 --> 00:40:08.909
guarantee you can write a free speech. They can

00:40:08.909 --> 00:40:10.489
fire you because they don't like the way your

00:40:10.489 --> 00:40:14.369
nose is shaped. That's absolutely legal. So if

00:40:14.369 --> 00:40:17.090
employers are firing people over comments on

00:40:17.090 --> 00:40:19.090
social media, they've been doing that already

00:40:19.090 --> 00:40:22.070
for years. They have been. And it's always been

00:40:22.070 --> 00:40:23.989
legal, and now they're doing it for a slightly

00:40:23.989 --> 00:40:26.170
different reason, and it's all still perfectly

00:40:26.170 --> 00:40:29.889
legal, so quit pointing. Well, let's see. I think

00:40:29.889 --> 00:40:31.989
it's something about people celebrating someone's

00:40:31.989 --> 00:40:34.530
death, someone's assassination and murder. Yeah,

00:40:34.530 --> 00:40:37.949
that's right. I think it's that one. Oh, yeah,

00:40:37.989 --> 00:40:40.710
yeah. You mean these people that are all loving

00:40:40.710 --> 00:40:43.210
and forgiving? The ones that are supposed to

00:40:43.210 --> 00:40:45.849
be tolerant and accepting and want to get along

00:40:45.849 --> 00:40:48.570
and want to ban guns and don't want there to

00:40:48.570 --> 00:40:50.710
be any wars, and suddenly they're shooting people.

00:40:50.969 --> 00:40:52.929
Well, the last time I checked, shooting was a

00:40:52.929 --> 00:40:55.769
violent act. Especially killing someone by shooting

00:40:55.769 --> 00:40:58.269
them in the neck. Extremely violent. That sounds

00:40:58.269 --> 00:41:00.190
extremely violent. And then for this loving,

00:41:00.289 --> 00:41:02.530
tolerant, and accepting group of people to suddenly

00:41:02.530 --> 00:41:04.710
be celebrating and cheering and hoping for more?

00:41:05.710 --> 00:41:09.010
I'll tell you what. If anyone does that in front

00:41:09.010 --> 00:41:12.469
of me, I will speak to them again. Yeah, it's

00:41:12.469 --> 00:41:16.269
important to keep watching and see who is exposing

00:41:16.269 --> 00:41:17.909
themselves. Oh, I know some people's true soul.

00:41:18.559 --> 00:41:20.940
I know some people's true soul, because they

00:41:20.940 --> 00:41:23.760
fucking let it show. Yeah, they let it show.

00:41:24.099 --> 00:41:26.179
Someone who's having a lot of trouble with this

00:41:26.179 --> 00:41:29.739
right now is the author Stephen King. Okay. Because

00:41:29.739 --> 00:41:34.239
he came out with a comment when he learned of

00:41:34.239 --> 00:41:37.139
this certain person's death. He said, you know

00:41:37.139 --> 00:41:43.460
he's advocating stoning gays, right? What? Because

00:41:43.460 --> 00:41:45.519
that's in the Bible, that if someone's homosexual,

00:41:45.780 --> 00:41:48.260
you stone them to death. Yeah, there's a lot

00:41:48.260 --> 00:41:50.460
of stuff in the Bible that probably is not...

00:41:50.460 --> 00:41:52.940
You're supposed to kill people who get a tattoo.

00:41:53.400 --> 00:41:55.579
Yeah. Or if you don't honor your mother and father,

00:41:55.699 --> 00:41:57.320
you're supposed to kill them. Yeah, so anyway,

00:41:57.559 --> 00:41:59.860
so he made that comment. The point is taken,

00:41:59.920 --> 00:42:04.199
I know what you're saying. And then a man posted

00:42:04.199 --> 00:42:07.590
a response saying, for your information... Batman

00:42:07.590 --> 00:42:09.969
came over and had dinner with my husband and

00:42:09.969 --> 00:42:12.210
me the other night, and he was wonderful, and

00:42:12.210 --> 00:42:14.550
we had a great time, and it was pleasant, and

00:42:14.550 --> 00:42:18.289
he didn't know a single time to drive for a rocket.

00:42:19.409 --> 00:42:24.269
And Stephen King's response is, well, yeah, but

00:42:24.269 --> 00:42:28.090
what I meant is, he says in principle he supports

00:42:28.090 --> 00:42:31.389
it. No matter what people say, Stephen King keeps

00:42:31.389 --> 00:42:34.369
trying to excuse what he said, trying to work

00:42:34.369 --> 00:42:37.159
around it. But what I meant was, Well, yeah,

00:42:37.280 --> 00:42:40.300
but... He needs to just say, you know what? I

00:42:40.300 --> 00:42:42.599
was wrong. Sorry. I'm going to go away for a

00:42:42.599 --> 00:42:44.619
while. But people aren't doing that. They're

00:42:44.619 --> 00:42:47.480
trying to excuse what they say. And once again,

00:42:47.639 --> 00:42:50.860
someone thinks that they have a talent at something,

00:42:51.019 --> 00:42:53.519
that they have the right to speak about everything,

00:42:53.619 --> 00:42:56.300
and everyone should listen to them. Yeah, yeah.

00:42:56.380 --> 00:42:59.099
No, no. I don't give one else a shit what he

00:42:59.099 --> 00:43:01.780
thinks. Never did, never will. It's so funny

00:43:01.780 --> 00:43:04.449
when people realize that... even though they

00:43:04.449 --> 00:43:07.469
have somewhat of a celebrity status or people

00:43:07.469 --> 00:43:10.289
pay them money or people pay attention, it could

00:43:10.289 --> 00:43:12.349
change in an instant. All of a sudden, yeah,

00:43:12.389 --> 00:43:14.610
we don't want you anymore. Yeah. And then you're

00:43:14.610 --> 00:43:18.750
just done. Yeah. And, you know, Stephen King,

00:43:18.869 --> 00:43:21.030
he's got nothing left to offer, so all he can

00:43:21.030 --> 00:43:23.050
do is just sit in his corner and fucking, you

00:43:23.050 --> 00:43:25.829
know, bad mouth. He's got that new movie coming

00:43:25.829 --> 00:43:27.860
out. I imagine there are a lot of people that

00:43:27.860 --> 00:43:29.619
aren't going to go see his new movie. I won't.

00:43:29.619 --> 00:43:33.360
I'll never support him again. And this is all

00:43:33.360 --> 00:43:36.239
people making choices, and they're choosing how

00:43:36.239 --> 00:43:39.019
they want to react to a given situation. Nobody's

00:43:39.019 --> 00:43:41.760
doing anything illegal by firing people or shunning

00:43:41.760 --> 00:43:44.900
people or cutting them off. It's, hey, you want

00:43:44.900 --> 00:43:46.820
to say it? Go ahead. Here are the consequences.

00:43:47.219 --> 00:43:49.639
Yes. And you know what? Everybody gets those

00:43:49.639 --> 00:43:52.380
consequences. Yep. And it's been going around.

00:43:52.460 --> 00:43:55.820
Now it's coming around. Yep. I'm just sitting

00:43:55.820 --> 00:43:57.679
back while eating popcorn and watching people

00:43:57.679 --> 00:44:00.059
destroy their own lives for their stupidity.

00:44:00.699 --> 00:44:04.059
You know what? It's fine with me. And to speak

00:44:04.059 --> 00:44:06.519
of Stephen King, he must be a miserable sack

00:44:06.519 --> 00:44:09.420
of crap. He must be. Because he could just sit

00:44:09.420 --> 00:44:12.639
over there like Roger Waters. Roger Waters mouthed

00:44:12.639 --> 00:44:16.000
off about Ozzie. Why? Why? The only thing I can

00:44:16.000 --> 00:44:18.280
think is in his demented mind, he thought this

00:44:18.280 --> 00:44:20.099
would be a good thing to get him a lot of attention.

00:44:20.480 --> 00:44:23.639
I guess. Boy, he thought wrong. He certainly

00:44:23.639 --> 00:44:26.159
did. He picked on someone that's like 10 times,

00:44:26.179 --> 00:44:28.219
20 times more loved than him, more than that.

00:44:28.460 --> 00:44:30.900
And the vast majority of the music industry is

00:44:30.900 --> 00:44:32.960
going to turn their back on Roger Waters, if

00:44:32.960 --> 00:44:34.940
they haven't already. They already have, but

00:44:34.940 --> 00:44:38.179
this didn't help anything. It's done. Even the

00:44:38.179 --> 00:44:40.179
fringe people who are still supporting him. I

00:44:40.179 --> 00:44:42.699
mean, I know somebody who was a huge Roger Waters

00:44:42.699 --> 00:44:45.619
fan, going to his concerts, and I bet he's never

00:44:45.619 --> 00:44:48.019
going to go near him again. Nope, I know about

00:44:48.019 --> 00:44:51.159
everybody I know now says that guy is just...

00:44:51.449 --> 00:44:53.050
One of the biggest assholes that ever stepped

00:44:53.050 --> 00:44:55.230
on the face of this earth. Yeah, I think Jack

00:44:55.230 --> 00:44:58.690
Ellsworth was right. Yeah, yeah, he's a see you

00:44:58.690 --> 00:45:00.449
next Tuesday. His dad thought he was a see you

00:45:00.449 --> 00:45:03.070
next Tuesday, and he was. And he proved him right.

00:45:03.210 --> 00:45:06.710
Yes, he was. Yeah. I love that, though. But,

00:45:06.710 --> 00:45:09.690
you know, in Britain, the see you next Tuesday

00:45:09.690 --> 00:45:12.789
word is not like it is here. No, uh -uh. It's

00:45:12.789 --> 00:45:15.110
more like a dick, a dickhead or something. It's

00:45:15.110 --> 00:45:19.320
not like the, uh... uh very derogatory slang

00:45:19.320 --> 00:45:23.820
term yeah it's used over here it's not as well

00:45:23.820 --> 00:45:26.400
it's offensive but not in the same way not in

00:45:26.400 --> 00:45:28.679
the same way it's just like bloody over there

00:45:28.679 --> 00:45:32.440
it's like saying fucking yeah yeah and over here

00:45:32.440 --> 00:45:36.280
it's like what what yeah i don't see any blood

00:45:36.280 --> 00:45:38.699
on there you know yeah there was a i remember

00:45:38.699 --> 00:45:41.130
a song called bloody well right Oh, yeah, yeah.

00:45:41.210 --> 00:45:43.530
For the English mark, that's the super tramp.

00:45:43.710 --> 00:45:46.289
Super tramp, that's right. But for the British

00:45:46.289 --> 00:45:50.130
mark, it's like saying fucking A. Yeah. That's

00:45:50.130 --> 00:45:52.809
kind of what it's like. We could play it over

00:45:52.809 --> 00:45:56.969
here. Yeah. That actually is something you can

00:45:56.969 --> 00:46:00.030
do. You can release a song in the English -speaking

00:46:00.030 --> 00:46:04.190
world that has the most vile, disgusting, profane

00:46:04.190 --> 00:46:07.590
words in it in another language. And as long

00:46:07.590 --> 00:46:10.670
as you release it in a country where they don't

00:46:10.670 --> 00:46:14.489
speak that language, not a problem. Or how about

00:46:14.489 --> 00:46:18.530
the old skit, Sofa King. Yeah, the Sofa King.

00:46:19.369 --> 00:46:25.530
And his Sofa King good prices. And they played

00:46:25.530 --> 00:46:27.730
it on virtually every radio station in America.

00:46:27.809 --> 00:46:29.389
There was nothing the FCC could do about it.

00:46:29.429 --> 00:46:33.130
It's going, we're not saying the F word. They're

00:46:33.130 --> 00:46:35.150
saying Sofa King. I don't know what the problem

00:46:35.150 --> 00:46:40.199
is. I say the word shit every time I say shih

00:46:40.199 --> 00:46:44.360
tzu. Yeah, yeah. Well, the really good shows

00:46:44.360 --> 00:46:48.079
knew ways around it. Yeah. And they had a good

00:46:48.079 --> 00:46:50.239
way of making fun of it and illustrating how

00:46:50.239 --> 00:46:53.880
absurd it was. Yes. And that's a lot of the reason

00:46:53.880 --> 00:46:56.019
I liked a lot of the shows that I did watch is

00:46:56.019 --> 00:46:58.739
because they constantly ridiculed the FCC and

00:46:58.739 --> 00:47:00.059
there was nothing they could really do about

00:47:00.059 --> 00:47:03.260
it. Because the way that it was worded and said...

00:47:03.739 --> 00:47:06.280
They use their own idiocy against him. Yeah.

00:47:07.679 --> 00:47:09.800
Anyhow, we're getting off subject again. I got

00:47:09.800 --> 00:47:11.460
some bullet points, unless you got something.

00:47:11.760 --> 00:47:14.900
Do me bullet points. All right. All right. Should

00:47:14.900 --> 00:47:16.920
the Chiefs, I asked this already, and I know

00:47:16.920 --> 00:47:19.179
you're in favor for it, but I had to ask it again.

00:47:20.280 --> 00:47:25.179
Should the Chiefs try to set up a trade for Tyreek?

00:47:26.159 --> 00:47:29.880
Because Mike McDaniels, I think the GM, he already

00:47:29.880 --> 00:47:32.840
got fired, didn't he? Or is he on the verge?

00:47:32.880 --> 00:47:34.739
I think he's on the verge of Mike, but Daniels,

00:47:34.739 --> 00:47:37.380
they're starting to call for his firing. Yeah,

00:47:37.400 --> 00:47:39.239
I imagine they'll both be gone by the end of

00:47:39.239 --> 00:47:42.340
the year. Yeah. Which would probably mean a complete

00:47:42.340 --> 00:47:44.760
rebuild. Like, Tagovaiola probably won't even

00:47:44.760 --> 00:47:48.360
be there. No. No, he's pretty much fragile at

00:47:48.360 --> 00:47:50.500
this point because one more hit in his head,

00:47:50.659 --> 00:47:53.119
one more serious hit, and the dude shouldn't

00:47:53.119 --> 00:47:55.659
play football again. There's some sort of a chemistry

00:47:55.659 --> 00:47:58.800
issue, too. Something going on there. They can't

00:47:58.800 --> 00:48:02.829
do anything right this year. Yeah, kind of like

00:48:02.829 --> 00:48:06.110
the Bears. Those Bears are something else. Caleb

00:48:06.110 --> 00:48:10.650
Williams, I wrote him off. Yeah, for the longest

00:48:10.650 --> 00:48:12.730
time I've been hoping that Caleb Williams would

00:48:12.730 --> 00:48:15.670
catch fire and be a great quarterback, but I'm

00:48:15.670 --> 00:48:19.489
not seeing it. He had targets all day long, all

00:48:19.489 --> 00:48:22.210
day long to hit. They could have destroyed Detroit,

00:48:22.489 --> 00:48:26.869
but he couldn't hit them. Yeah, there's something

00:48:26.869 --> 00:48:29.650
lacking there. No vision. He doesn't have any

00:48:29.650 --> 00:48:32.860
vision on the field. The game is too fast for

00:48:32.860 --> 00:48:34.699
him, which means he did not progress into the

00:48:34.699 --> 00:48:37.179
majors. That's the knock on Trevor Lawrence,

00:48:37.300 --> 00:48:40.559
too, in Jacksonville, is that he hasn't really

00:48:40.559 --> 00:48:43.579
progressed beyond what he was in college. So

00:48:43.579 --> 00:48:46.340
you can be a backup, a perennial backup that

00:48:46.340 --> 00:48:50.760
way. But, gosh, what a shame. Yeah. Yeah, it

00:48:50.760 --> 00:48:54.579
is. Okay, will the Chiefs be a serious contender

00:48:54.579 --> 00:48:57.340
this time if the O -line stays as bad as it's

00:48:57.340 --> 00:49:01.119
looked at times? No. I agree. Because Mahomes

00:49:01.119 --> 00:49:03.059
will get beat up. The running backs will get

00:49:03.059 --> 00:49:06.460
beat up. There will be tons of interceptions

00:49:06.460 --> 00:49:08.760
and desperation throws. I guess I never answered

00:49:08.760 --> 00:49:10.760
your previous question about trading for Tyreek.

00:49:11.039 --> 00:49:13.440
Oh, no, you didn't? I'd say no. I think he's

00:49:13.440 --> 00:49:15.699
too much of a distraction. He's bad -mouthed

00:49:15.699 --> 00:49:18.500
the Chiefs too often, and he's really not going

00:49:18.500 --> 00:49:22.849
to contribute. enough to justify the distraction.

00:49:23.190 --> 00:49:25.710
I agree, and I got this little story here about

00:49:25.710 --> 00:49:28.269
more domestic violence allegations against him.

00:49:28.369 --> 00:49:31.250
All right. Yeah, he's not a very pleasant guy,

00:49:31.309 --> 00:49:34.489
apparently. No, I wouldn't want him on my team

00:49:34.489 --> 00:49:36.250
either. I'm glad you said that. Yeah, I wouldn't

00:49:36.250 --> 00:49:37.909
want to hang out in a bar with him. Because I

00:49:37.909 --> 00:49:39.690
said that at work to a couple people. They're

00:49:39.690 --> 00:49:41.590
like, oh, no, you've got to get him. And I'm

00:49:41.590 --> 00:49:43.650
like, no, you don't. They're thinking about what

00:49:43.650 --> 00:49:45.769
he used to be 10 years ago. Yeah, he's not that

00:49:45.769 --> 00:49:48.369
anymore, obviously. And he's going to cost a

00:49:48.369 --> 00:49:50.829
lot of money. Yeah, there's no way. And also,

00:49:50.929 --> 00:49:55.070
I'm waiting for Jalen Royals to get back. Yeah.

00:49:56.170 --> 00:49:59.250
I want to see Thornton. I want to see him keep

00:49:59.250 --> 00:50:01.590
progressing because Thornton has become a real

00:50:01.590 --> 00:50:04.909
threat. I really like Ty Cole and Thornton. Him

00:50:04.909 --> 00:50:07.889
and Worthy are going to be one hell of a combination.

00:50:08.429 --> 00:50:12.050
Yeah. Whether it's in tandem or one alone. Smith

00:50:12.050 --> 00:50:14.230
-Schuster still doing good stuff. Hollywood Brown

00:50:14.230 --> 00:50:16.909
had a few good catches. Hollywood Brown is starting

00:50:16.909 --> 00:50:19.550
to look pretty... Like he can be that go -to

00:50:19.550 --> 00:50:24.469
guy like we've had for so long. I think Remigio.

00:50:24.530 --> 00:50:28.250
Remigio, yeah. Remigio, yeah. I think he is developing

00:50:28.250 --> 00:50:31.110
into that go -to guy also. Wouldn't that be awesome

00:50:31.110 --> 00:50:35.969
if Brown and Remigio could take over being the

00:50:35.969 --> 00:50:40.739
safety belt from? Travis Kelsey. From Travis

00:50:40.739 --> 00:50:42.579
Kelsey. That's what I was thinking, too. So you

00:50:42.579 --> 00:50:44.920
can get Travis off the field more often and get

00:50:44.920 --> 00:50:47.280
two faster running backs in and play in his place.

00:50:47.320 --> 00:50:49.280
If you give him a third of the snaps that he

00:50:49.280 --> 00:50:52.239
has now, I have a feeling he'll be much more

00:50:52.239 --> 00:50:55.079
effective. Yeah, I think he'll catch more than

00:50:55.079 --> 00:50:59.579
Kelsey. Yeah. And I also think Ramiho and maybe

00:50:59.579 --> 00:51:04.300
Royals or somebody like that could probably.

00:51:05.159 --> 00:51:08.019
be the other guy of that tandem. I don't think

00:51:08.019 --> 00:51:09.960
you want to do it with one. I think you'd have

00:51:09.960 --> 00:51:12.719
to do it with a couple. I know Kelsey still gives

00:51:12.719 --> 00:51:17.079
you those tough contested catches, but so can

00:51:17.079 --> 00:51:19.300
Noah Gray, and so can your running back. Well,

00:51:19.340 --> 00:51:21.980
good are they if you drop the easy ones. The

00:51:21.980 --> 00:51:23.960
two that he dropped that could have won games,

00:51:24.000 --> 00:51:27.280
well, one led to an interception, almost a pick

00:51:27.280 --> 00:51:32.199
six if it wasn't for Josh Simmons. Yes. Amazing.

00:51:32.199 --> 00:51:34.539
Oh, I could not believe that. That guy deserves

00:51:34.539 --> 00:51:37.139
an award for that. They showed him on the replay.

00:51:37.239 --> 00:51:38.800
He says, look at this guy. This is a left tackle

00:51:38.800 --> 00:51:41.139
running his ass down. I know. And he got him,

00:51:41.179 --> 00:51:43.400
too. I could not believe it. I'm like, pick six.

00:51:43.639 --> 00:51:46.820
Thank you, Kelsey. Bam, he knocked him out. You

00:51:46.820 --> 00:51:48.719
know, a pick six might have been a godsend at

00:51:48.719 --> 00:51:50.500
that time. It might have been, yeah. It might

00:51:50.500 --> 00:51:54.179
have been a wake -up call. But, you know what?

00:51:54.920 --> 00:51:58.130
I'm okay with Owen, too. Yeah. It's all right.

00:51:58.269 --> 00:52:02.030
Yeah, you know what? Because we play everyone

00:52:02.030 --> 00:52:04.489
in our division at least once, most of them twice.

00:52:05.670 --> 00:52:08.110
So we can take care of ourselves in the division

00:52:08.110 --> 00:52:10.690
if we do. Yeah, we still have five division games

00:52:10.690 --> 00:52:13.650
left. Yeah, so we can take care of business there.

00:52:14.329 --> 00:52:16.989
And then after that five, you probably need another

00:52:16.989 --> 00:52:19.829
six, seven wins to get into the playoffs. Yeah,

00:52:21.829 --> 00:52:23.090
they're going to have to play really well from

00:52:23.090 --> 00:52:24.969
this point on, but they can do it. They can do

00:52:24.969 --> 00:52:27.429
it, yeah. Instead of starting a season with 10

00:52:27.429 --> 00:52:30.030
or 11 wins in a row, it's like, okay, get them

00:52:30.030 --> 00:52:34.150
now. Start your run to victories now. It's better

00:52:34.150 --> 00:52:36.269
to flounder right now than later in the season,

00:52:36.309 --> 00:52:39.050
like a lot of teams do. Yeah. A lot of teams

00:52:39.050 --> 00:52:41.750
get out of the gate hot, and you're like, oh,

00:52:41.769 --> 00:52:44.590
those guys are it. That's the new contender.

00:52:44.690 --> 00:52:47.349
And then. Flame out. Yeah, December they start

00:52:47.349 --> 00:52:53.019
falling off. Yeah. Okay. So. The 17 -game schedule

00:52:53.019 --> 00:52:56.659
has been around a few seasons now. Are we ready

00:52:56.659 --> 00:52:59.579
for the 18 -game? We know it's coming. I don't

00:52:59.579 --> 00:53:01.360
think we're ready yet. I don't think we're ready

00:53:01.360 --> 00:53:05.000
for the 17, but we're doing it. I think one of

00:53:05.000 --> 00:53:09.739
the spokespeople for the NFL Players Union the

00:53:09.739 --> 00:53:12.199
other day said, don't think the 18 -game season

00:53:12.199 --> 00:53:14.960
is a done deal. Well, yeah, it is. It is a done

00:53:14.960 --> 00:53:17.480
deal. They would have never done that. But coming

00:53:17.480 --> 00:53:21.099
up with an uneven amount of... You know, of games.

00:53:21.500 --> 00:53:25.760
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, they went to 17 because they

00:53:25.760 --> 00:53:28.940
wanted to get to 18. Yeah, 17 was the step that

00:53:28.940 --> 00:53:31.000
they had to take. Yeah, it was never the final

00:53:31.000 --> 00:53:35.440
destination. Yeah. So I would say by the end

00:53:35.440 --> 00:53:37.780
of the decade, definitely. Well, they want that

00:53:37.780 --> 00:53:40.739
money. Yeah. And also, that's another game that

00:53:40.739 --> 00:53:45.460
they can flux overseas. I really don't know that

00:53:45.460 --> 00:53:47.619
they could take away another preseason game,

00:53:47.719 --> 00:53:51.059
though. Because look how unprepared teams are

00:53:51.059 --> 00:53:53.380
with those three that they used. They might start

00:53:53.380 --> 00:53:57.179
earlier. Here's what I got to go by. This year,

00:53:57.340 --> 00:54:01.699
right after Oklahoma won the NBA championship,

00:54:02.199 --> 00:54:06.000
it was like a week later and the training camp

00:54:06.000 --> 00:54:09.500
started. Why would they want training camps to

00:54:09.500 --> 00:54:13.860
start the week following of the NBA championship?

00:54:14.159 --> 00:54:18.429
If it goes seven games, it's a week later. And

00:54:18.429 --> 00:54:20.250
all of a sudden, bam, you've got football talk.

00:54:20.510 --> 00:54:25.090
Yeah. I think they may be thinking of that going,

00:54:25.150 --> 00:54:26.869
you know what, this is a perfect opportunity

00:54:26.869 --> 00:54:29.590
to influx ourselves in that little time there

00:54:29.590 --> 00:54:32.769
where people only have like baseball and maybe

00:54:32.769 --> 00:54:34.429
a little bit of soccer to look at or something

00:54:34.429 --> 00:54:37.070
like that, the big sports. Well, you'll notice

00:54:37.070 --> 00:54:39.630
that as the NFL season winds down and then we

00:54:39.630 --> 00:54:43.929
get into the postseason. Suddenly baseball is

00:54:43.929 --> 00:54:46.230
doing stuff and getting in there. Oh, look, now

00:54:46.230 --> 00:54:48.489
we're having an owner's meeting and we're deciding

00:54:48.489 --> 00:54:50.730
these things. It's intentional. It's like all

00:54:50.730 --> 00:54:53.389
your focus is over here, so we'll drop our innovation.

00:54:53.409 --> 00:54:56.230
Now you can all think about us too. Yeah. So

00:54:56.230 --> 00:54:59.429
it's a very smart thing to do is coordinate your

00:54:59.429 --> 00:55:01.829
season with other seasons. What you'll never

00:55:01.829 --> 00:55:05.070
hear us say very much is baseball is smart. You

00:55:05.070 --> 00:55:07.590
want to hear us say that very much? Yeah. No.

00:55:07.820 --> 00:55:09.679
So you might write that down. What is it? The

00:55:09.679 --> 00:55:14.019
16th of September at 1117. Yeah. That's the last

00:55:14.019 --> 00:55:16.519
time you'll hear it from us. Yep. All right.

00:55:18.239 --> 00:55:20.940
I've got a question here that I've pondered and

00:55:20.940 --> 00:55:22.519
pondered, and I've got ten different answers.

00:55:22.960 --> 00:55:26.820
So would Mahomes win a Super Bowl without Reed

00:55:26.820 --> 00:55:29.940
if he went to another coach when he was drafted?

00:55:32.320 --> 00:55:37.949
Wow. Now think about that. Yeah. What if you

00:55:37.949 --> 00:55:44.449
were inherited Chip Kelly? Yeah. Or there's a

00:55:44.449 --> 00:55:47.170
better one that I can think of, Kiffin. What

00:55:47.170 --> 00:55:50.030
if you inherited Lane Kiffin? What if Mahomes

00:55:50.030 --> 00:55:54.429
inherited him? You know, I think what really

00:55:54.429 --> 00:56:00.389
sticks out first from that is how Patrick Mahomes

00:56:00.389 --> 00:56:04.559
has matured and flourished under. The type of

00:56:04.559 --> 00:56:06.500
environment we have here, not just on the team,

00:56:06.539 --> 00:56:09.539
but in the city. Yes. And he could have gone

00:56:09.539 --> 00:56:13.059
a different direction in a bigger place like

00:56:13.059 --> 00:56:17.860
Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles. If he went to Chicago,

00:56:18.039 --> 00:56:19.519
I don't think he would have won a Super Bowl.

00:56:19.519 --> 00:56:22.719
No, definitely not Chicago. But then a different

00:56:22.719 --> 00:56:27.219
team philosophy and thought. He might not even

00:56:27.219 --> 00:56:30.239
be married with kids at this point. Yeah, that's

00:56:30.239 --> 00:56:32.219
true. You know, his life might have gone a totally

00:56:32.219 --> 00:56:34.380
different way, and he might be, you know, party

00:56:34.380 --> 00:56:36.380
guy, and they'd be talking about all his potential

00:56:36.380 --> 00:56:39.000
wasted. You see. You never know. And that's the

00:56:39.000 --> 00:56:42.199
route that I took, too, is because you take people,

00:56:42.239 --> 00:56:44.340
put them in different situations, and they act

00:56:44.340 --> 00:56:48.000
differently. Yeah. And I wonder if maybe he would

00:56:48.000 --> 00:56:50.840
even be a malcontent because he knows a better

00:56:50.840 --> 00:56:54.460
way. Well, yeah, he is really fiery and really

00:56:54.460 --> 00:56:56.679
insistent. And I'm not dogging him at all. No,

00:56:56.699 --> 00:56:58.980
no, no. He's great. He's perfect. And in this

00:56:58.980 --> 00:57:02.440
organization, they know how to harness them.

00:57:02.460 --> 00:57:04.159
Yeah, harness is the word I was looking for,

00:57:04.219 --> 00:57:06.719
yeah. But another team, they just like yelling

00:57:06.719 --> 00:57:09.719
at them. It's like, shut up. Yeah, exactly. That's

00:57:09.719 --> 00:57:12.039
what I'm saying. And then a lot of teams stifle

00:57:12.039 --> 00:57:14.199
that creativity where the Chiefs find a way to

00:57:14.199 --> 00:57:15.940
get it out there. Yeah. You know, because they'll

00:57:15.940 --> 00:57:19.010
come up and go, hey, Andy, I got this idea. And

00:57:19.010 --> 00:57:20.750
instead of like, get out of here, quarterback,

00:57:21.030 --> 00:57:23.230
shut the door. It's kind of hot out there. Yeah.

00:57:23.309 --> 00:57:25.570
It's like, oh, well, sure, let's talk about it.

00:57:25.929 --> 00:57:27.789
You want to go to the board and figure this out?

00:57:28.250 --> 00:57:30.489
Yeah. Yeah, they talk about all the time about,

00:57:30.570 --> 00:57:34.929
you know, how Mahomes will come up with a play

00:57:34.929 --> 00:57:37.670
and then Reid will get a hold of it and re -advise,

00:57:37.730 --> 00:57:42.090
you know. Yeah. So, and those two working together

00:57:42.090 --> 00:57:46.269
especially. Yeah. Especially. So, and here's

00:57:46.269 --> 00:57:49.119
another thing I'd go by, too. They got rid of

00:57:49.119 --> 00:57:52.079
Tyreek Hill, right? Part of the success that

00:57:52.079 --> 00:57:54.699
Mahomes had at first. He had a better season

00:57:54.699 --> 00:57:56.860
the year after. Yes, he did. Stat -wise, much

00:57:56.860 --> 00:58:00.699
better. So, that tells you right there, it's

00:58:00.699 --> 00:58:03.260
not the two people they had in place there. Yeah.

00:58:03.320 --> 00:58:06.980
Now, winning that 13 -second game for the championship,

00:58:07.179 --> 00:58:10.619
that was Kelsey and Hill and Mahomes all together.

00:58:10.840 --> 00:58:12.980
Yeah. Without those three people, you would not

00:58:12.980 --> 00:58:18.000
have done that. No. So. But anyhow, I'm with

00:58:18.000 --> 00:58:21.239
you. Yeah. I think, oh, do you think he would

00:58:21.239 --> 00:58:26.059
win one or not? I'm going to say no. He would

00:58:26.059 --> 00:58:28.420
have been like Dan Marino. You know, all the

00:58:28.420 --> 00:58:32.139
talent, putting up great numbers, but the rest

00:58:32.139 --> 00:58:34.159
of the team lets him down. Oh, yeah. Well, I

00:58:34.159 --> 00:58:36.800
mean, look at Reed. Reed, like, looked, and he

00:58:36.800 --> 00:58:40.179
figured that Sutton, Bob Sutton, was not getting

00:58:40.179 --> 00:58:42.119
it done, which was pretty easy to figure out.

00:58:42.179 --> 00:58:44.929
Yeah. And he's like, well, I need to take that

00:58:44.929 --> 00:58:48.070
next step on defense. Spagnuolo was available,

00:58:48.190 --> 00:58:50.309
and he looked at him and said, that is the guy.

00:58:50.829 --> 00:58:53.710
A lot of head coaches might have been intimidated

00:58:53.710 --> 00:58:56.969
and said, I'm not hiring him. Reed didn't care.

00:58:57.070 --> 00:58:58.789
He was like, no, I want somebody here that can

00:58:58.789 --> 00:59:00.610
do this and do it right, so I'm going to get

00:59:00.610 --> 00:59:04.710
Spagnuolo. That type of no ego lends to winning.

00:59:04.849 --> 00:59:06.989
And then be able to turn the defense over and

00:59:06.989 --> 00:59:09.630
say. Do it your way. That's what I hired you

00:59:09.630 --> 00:59:11.409
for. He pretty much admits it, too. He's like,

00:59:11.449 --> 00:59:13.090
I don't know. I got spags over there for that.

00:59:13.650 --> 00:59:19.030
I'm an offense guy. All right. Is NFL tired of

00:59:19.030 --> 00:59:23.869
the Chiefs? Yes. Yeah. Very much. Yep. And it's

00:59:23.869 --> 00:59:26.570
mostly because the NFL fans have gotten tired

00:59:26.570 --> 00:59:30.050
of them and the sales of jerseys have started

00:59:30.050 --> 00:59:32.150
to dip. Yeah, it's nothing personal. It's just

00:59:32.150 --> 00:59:35.389
the fact of natural. Yeah, it's fatigue. Yeah,

00:59:35.530 --> 00:59:38.070
it's fatigue. People have Chiefs fatigue. They

00:59:38.070 --> 00:59:39.610
used to be like, oh, the Chiefs are coming to

00:59:39.610 --> 00:59:41.170
play? I'm definitely buying a ticket for that.

00:59:41.269 --> 00:59:43.050
Now it's like, I don't want to see those guys

00:59:43.050 --> 00:59:44.550
again. Yeah, I've seen them ten times. Yeah,

00:59:44.650 --> 00:59:47.449
there's always something better you can do. Yeah,

00:59:47.449 --> 00:59:51.150
they definitely, and they'll never be as big

00:59:51.150 --> 00:59:54.050
as they were. Even if they come back and get

00:59:54.050 --> 00:59:55.909
super successful, people will still be tired

00:59:55.909 --> 00:59:58.389
of them. That original pop was something else

00:59:58.389 --> 01:00:01.550
because Mahomes was such a refreshing. Yes. They

01:00:01.550 --> 01:00:03.429
had that tagline where they had him as a bat

01:00:03.429 --> 01:00:06.710
boy running around for his dad. And they have

01:00:06.710 --> 01:00:09.050
him in high school. They have him in college.

01:00:09.329 --> 01:00:12.530
Yep. And he was like the old American kid. Yeah,

01:00:12.570 --> 01:00:15.880
he had a different, unique... He had kind of

01:00:15.880 --> 01:00:18.219
the demeanor of an excited little kid. Yeah.

01:00:18.340 --> 01:00:21.260
He was somebody who was very promotable. Easy

01:00:21.260 --> 01:00:24.320
to promote. Yeah. And also a good person. Yeah.

01:00:24.360 --> 01:00:26.760
He wasn't out doing stupid shit. Yeah. And then,

01:00:26.840 --> 01:00:29.400
you know, the team started succeeding. Andy Reid

01:00:29.400 --> 01:00:31.980
has been kind of a feel -good story. So it all

01:00:31.980 --> 01:00:34.420
came together to, like, you know, perfect storm

01:00:34.420 --> 01:00:37.820
of promote this team. It's not going to happen

01:00:37.820 --> 01:00:40.780
again for Kansas City. I don't imagine in my

01:00:40.780 --> 01:00:46.250
lifetime. Yeah, I agree. I agree. Do you believe

01:00:46.250 --> 01:00:49.170
the main reason Travis Kelsey is still in a Chiefs

01:00:49.170 --> 01:00:51.150
uniform is mostly because they don't want to

01:00:51.150 --> 01:00:55.349
piss off Mahomes? Yeah. Me too, 100%. Yeah, loyalty,

01:00:55.730 --> 01:00:59.849
reaction to the team, reaction to the fan base.

01:01:00.230 --> 01:01:04.650
And also, all the games he won for you. Yeah.

01:01:04.730 --> 01:01:06.969
You can't just throw them out. Look, I know we

01:01:06.969 --> 01:01:09.010
were in on him really good and everything, but

01:01:09.010 --> 01:01:13.280
the fact is he is royalty. Yeah. There are ways

01:01:13.280 --> 01:01:15.360
you have to take care of things, and you're not

01:01:15.360 --> 01:01:18.039
going to drop him in midseason. Well, number

01:01:18.039 --> 01:01:19.880
one, someone else will get him and use him against

01:01:19.880 --> 01:01:23.940
you. Number two. Get him, milk him for information

01:01:23.940 --> 01:01:27.179
on the Chiefs. Yeah, which he'd never do. No.

01:01:27.219 --> 01:01:31.280
No, he's a Chiefs for life. So I think what you

01:01:31.280 --> 01:01:34.780
need to do is start slowly taking him out of

01:01:34.780 --> 01:01:37.000
plays and slowly putting in people like we're

01:01:37.000 --> 01:01:41.929
talking about, like Royals or Remigio. Thornton,

01:01:41.949 --> 01:01:45.170
having them fill that role. Yeah, definitely

01:01:45.170 --> 01:01:48.210
not replacing him with another tight end. Put

01:01:48.210 --> 01:01:50.489
in another receiver. Well, Noah Gray was looking

01:01:50.489 --> 01:01:52.590
really sexy, but then he didn't have a good game.

01:01:52.750 --> 01:01:55.809
No, he hasn't been much this season yet. No,

01:01:55.809 --> 01:01:58.030
and I wonder if it isn't the pressure that's

01:01:58.030 --> 01:02:00.710
put on him because of all the talk. Yeah. Because

01:02:00.710 --> 01:02:02.449
everybody in the world last year was like, put

01:02:02.449 --> 01:02:06.530
in Noah Gray. He's awesome. Well, okay, he's

01:02:06.530 --> 01:02:09.230
awesome as a backup. Is he awesome as a starter?

01:02:09.550 --> 01:02:12.269
Yeah. He's not even a starter yet and is already

01:02:12.269 --> 01:02:15.170
starting to sputter. Well, I know from my perspective,

01:02:15.250 --> 01:02:18.949
last season was all about, you know, throw the

01:02:18.949 --> 01:02:25.170
ball to whoever, Kelsey, Gray, receivers, et

01:02:25.170 --> 01:02:28.010
cetera. During the offseason, they kept talking

01:02:28.010 --> 01:02:30.210
about the receivers, the wide receivers only.

01:02:30.329 --> 01:02:32.670
They didn't talk about Kelsey having big receiving

01:02:32.670 --> 01:02:35.449
numbers or Noah Gray. It was all about the wide

01:02:35.449 --> 01:02:38.269
receivers. Yeah. And now we've lost two of them.

01:02:38.699 --> 01:02:42.920
One to injury, one to suspension. So wouldn't

01:02:42.920 --> 01:02:45.019
you just go back to using the tight ends? Maybe

01:02:45.019 --> 01:02:48.460
they're not ready. Maybe the scheme was all about

01:02:48.460 --> 01:02:51.059
using the wide receivers and the speedy guys

01:02:51.059 --> 01:02:52.960
that run down the field, and now that they're

01:02:52.960 --> 01:02:55.960
out, they're floundering for what to do. Well,

01:02:56.000 --> 01:02:57.800
every time they try to use the tight end, he's

01:02:57.800 --> 01:03:00.659
dropped the ball in a critical situation. He's

01:03:00.659 --> 01:03:02.579
been open a few times. He's been open, yeah.

01:03:02.760 --> 01:03:05.460
Whoever they've put in as the number one tight

01:03:05.460 --> 01:03:08.420
end when Kelsey needs a break. They do get open.

01:03:08.460 --> 01:03:10.760
They are available, but it's always a little

01:03:10.760 --> 01:03:12.800
short stuff, and they immediately get hammered

01:03:12.800 --> 01:03:15.039
or the ball knocked out of their hands. That's

01:03:15.039 --> 01:03:16.659
something other teams are doing very well is

01:03:16.659 --> 01:03:20.619
tackling us on the spot. I have noticed it drives

01:03:20.619 --> 01:03:23.099
me crazy that it seems like every other team

01:03:23.099 --> 01:03:27.659
in the league is better at not only tackling,

01:03:27.780 --> 01:03:30.360
but the defender stays really close to the receiver.

01:03:30.960 --> 01:03:33.199
Yes. You know, when the Chiefs are catching the

01:03:33.199 --> 01:03:36.059
ball, there's a defender like an inch and a half

01:03:36.059 --> 01:03:39.119
away. Yeah. When the Chiefs are on defense, the

01:03:39.119 --> 01:03:40.840
receiver catches the ball, and the nearest Chief

01:03:40.840 --> 01:03:43.480
is five yards away. Yeah. And he's got to run

01:03:43.480 --> 01:03:46.739
over there and throw an arm at him. Yeah. I don't

01:03:46.739 --> 01:03:50.460
get why the Chiefs are always so far away. I

01:03:50.460 --> 01:03:52.619
don't either. I mean, I don't know if it's just

01:03:52.619 --> 01:03:56.159
lack of talent or if it's lack of game plan.

01:03:56.579 --> 01:03:58.699
I mean, because even if you're in zone, someone

01:03:58.699 --> 01:04:00.800
comes into your zone, you run over there and

01:04:00.800 --> 01:04:01.780
you start covering them. Yeah, you have to go

01:04:01.780 --> 01:04:03.599
cover them. You don't wait for them to come to

01:04:03.599 --> 01:04:07.339
you. But I see the Chiefs over and over. like

01:04:07.339 --> 01:04:09.820
the defender will be on the wrong side of the

01:04:09.820 --> 01:04:12.119
first down marker, and here comes the ball carrier.

01:04:12.239 --> 01:04:13.940
The Chiefs player will just stand there and wait

01:04:13.940 --> 01:04:15.739
for him to come to him. Does it maybe have –

01:04:15.739 --> 01:04:17.840
And can tackle him. You think maybe they fake

01:04:17.840 --> 01:04:22.880
blitz too much? And that takes and throws them

01:04:22.880 --> 01:04:25.579
off the game a little bit. They have that second

01:04:25.579 --> 01:04:27.780
or two that they're not there, and then that

01:04:27.780 --> 01:04:30.519
shows up downfield. But that's where your safety

01:04:30.519 --> 01:04:33.000
is supposed to come into play. Yeah, yeah. So

01:04:33.000 --> 01:04:36.039
– Yeah, I mean. I mean, if your team is fast

01:04:36.039 --> 01:04:38.420
enough, then you run at the guy who's got the

01:04:38.420 --> 01:04:40.300
ball or who's about to get the ball, and you

01:04:40.300 --> 01:04:42.400
make sure you're there when the ball is. If your

01:04:42.400 --> 01:04:44.500
team isn't fast enough, then they stand around

01:04:44.500 --> 01:04:46.380
and wait for the ball carrier to come to them,

01:04:46.440 --> 01:04:48.500
and then they try to make the tackle. And that's

01:04:48.500 --> 01:04:51.179
what I'm seeing a lot of. It's like, okay, you

01:04:51.179 --> 01:04:52.960
got the ball. When you get here, I'll tackle

01:04:52.960 --> 01:04:55.619
you. The good news about that is it's like Thornton

01:04:55.619 --> 01:04:59.320
and some of our faster guys are waiting for the

01:04:59.320 --> 01:05:01.420
ball sometimes. Yeah. They're already out there

01:05:01.420 --> 01:05:06.989
going, all right. Here I am. It's odd that Mahomes

01:05:06.989 --> 01:05:09.489
has been overthrowing people so much so far this

01:05:09.489 --> 01:05:11.530
season. Well, he's under duress. Yeah. He's running

01:05:11.530 --> 01:05:15.809
for his life. If he's in the pocket, he's standing

01:05:15.809 --> 01:05:18.210
there, he hits that guy every time. So maybe

01:05:18.210 --> 01:05:20.989
when Mahomes starts running and he's under duress,

01:05:20.989 --> 01:05:23.150
he should start letting out this ear -piercing

01:05:23.150 --> 01:05:26.170
scream so his receivers know, oh, pick up the

01:05:26.170 --> 01:05:28.110
pace, he's going to fling it as far as he can.

01:05:30.380 --> 01:05:32.579
I think start drilling them in the ass with a

01:05:32.579 --> 01:05:35.400
football. Yeah. I mean, you can't use, you know,

01:05:35.400 --> 01:05:37.280
speakers and the helmets beyond what they already

01:05:37.280 --> 01:05:39.980
allow, but if you stand back there and just scream

01:05:39.980 --> 01:05:42.360
bloody murder, your guy 50 yards down feels like,

01:05:42.380 --> 01:05:47.679
uh -oh, I better run a little faster. I still

01:05:47.679 --> 01:05:50.260
think paddling by the sideline is appropriate.

01:05:50.780 --> 01:05:53.699
Yeah. Yep. Pull their pants down, bend them over.

01:05:53.920 --> 01:05:56.000
Yep. Do something that boneheaded. And use that

01:05:56.000 --> 01:05:58.300
board of education on them. The board of education.

01:05:59.099 --> 01:06:01.420
And I want it to be a replica of old Sparky.

01:06:01.440 --> 01:06:04.980
Gas midways, paddle it. I might know it very

01:06:04.980 --> 01:06:08.280
well. Word on the street, rumor is I might know

01:06:08.280 --> 01:06:12.119
it pretty well. I remember watching one of the

01:06:12.119 --> 01:06:15.199
coaches also taught woodshop class, and I remember

01:06:15.199 --> 01:06:17.719
watching him one semester building a new paddle

01:06:17.719 --> 01:06:19.820
for himself. I did too. I watched old Sparky

01:06:19.820 --> 01:06:22.059
build it. Drilling all the holes in it so the

01:06:22.059 --> 01:06:24.219
air could get through and it could smack you

01:06:24.219 --> 01:06:27.940
harder. He probably built one new one every year

01:06:27.940 --> 01:06:29.860
just to scare us. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, he

01:06:29.860 --> 01:06:32.460
was a maniacal motherfucker. He was, like, sitting

01:06:32.460 --> 01:06:34.039
there putting these holes in it and looking at

01:06:34.039 --> 01:06:36.559
it. He's going, you're going to get it, Mark,

01:06:36.780 --> 01:06:38.500
and you're going to get it, and you're going

01:06:38.500 --> 01:06:41.440
to get this. I thought about sanding this down,

01:06:41.500 --> 01:06:43.619
but, nah, I'm just going to leave the splinters.

01:06:43.739 --> 01:06:48.179
I want it rough and raw. And he had a big old

01:06:48.179 --> 01:06:50.619
long stock on it, too. That way you could put

01:06:50.619 --> 01:06:53.579
your arms way out there and just, like, virtually

01:06:53.579 --> 01:06:58.800
jump. Yeah. And nail somebody. Well, here's a

01:06:58.800 --> 01:07:02.320
rule idea that I proposed the other day, and

01:07:02.320 --> 01:07:05.340
so far I've gotten good reviews on it. Okay.

01:07:06.860 --> 01:07:09.800
The end of the game when one team's out of timeouts

01:07:09.800 --> 01:07:11.679
and the other team's just running out the clock.

01:07:12.260 --> 01:07:15.280
At a certain point, like if you get a first down

01:07:15.280 --> 01:07:18.139
after the two -minute warning, then the game's

01:07:18.139 --> 01:07:20.480
over because the other team can't stop the clock

01:07:20.480 --> 01:07:23.530
and the first team can just run it out. At that

01:07:23.530 --> 01:07:27.389
point, why not just say game over and treat it

01:07:27.389 --> 01:07:29.489
like the bottom of the ninth inning if the home

01:07:29.489 --> 01:07:31.889
team's ahead? They don't play the bottom of the

01:07:31.889 --> 01:07:33.309
ninth inning. We already talked about this. I

01:07:33.309 --> 01:07:35.690
agree with it 100%. Yeah. So it's like, okay,

01:07:35.750 --> 01:07:37.489
at this point, all you have to do is kneel on

01:07:37.489 --> 01:07:39.349
the ball two or three times. Let's just skip

01:07:39.349 --> 01:07:41.789
it and spend the last minute and a half. Everybody

01:07:41.789 --> 01:07:44.929
get on the field and talk and mingle. They just

01:07:44.929 --> 01:07:47.679
don't have it. They're like, well. They don't

01:07:47.679 --> 01:07:49.960
need it. And it's not like you have to immediately

01:07:49.960 --> 01:07:53.420
cut away. You can still be covering the players

01:07:53.420 --> 01:07:56.320
and the coaches, and they'll have an extra minute

01:07:56.320 --> 01:07:58.599
and a half to mingle on the field and talk, et

01:07:58.599 --> 01:08:01.300
cetera. I don't know why it's so important to

01:08:01.300 --> 01:08:03.019
have them go through the motions of kneeling

01:08:03.019 --> 01:08:07.019
down a couple of times. I think the only reason

01:08:07.019 --> 01:08:09.739
is hopes that the ball gets slapped out. Kind

01:08:09.739 --> 01:08:11.900
of like what happened with Philadelphia and the

01:08:11.900 --> 01:08:14.239
Chiefs the last game. The ball got slapped out,

01:08:14.280 --> 01:08:16.380
but it may or may have not been on the ground.

01:08:16.880 --> 01:08:19.000
Well, I've seen that a couple of times when the

01:08:19.000 --> 01:08:21.100
team is just going to kneel on the ball and a

01:08:21.100 --> 01:08:23.579
defender comes flying across trying to tackle.

01:08:24.060 --> 01:08:26.020
The officials go to them and say, hey, knock

01:08:26.020 --> 01:08:28.720
it off, don't do that. Next time it's going to

01:08:28.720 --> 01:08:30.760
be a penalty for unsportsmanlike because we're

01:08:30.760 --> 01:08:32.640
just running the clock out and that's it. Yeah,

01:08:32.640 --> 01:08:35.300
again, that's it. So they do it once and they

01:08:35.300 --> 01:08:37.220
get reprimanded. So, no, I don't think there

01:08:37.220 --> 01:08:40.020
is any hope of the ball getting knocked out or

01:08:40.020 --> 01:08:43.060
a turnover or something. The league says they

01:08:43.060 --> 01:08:45.260
don't want dead plays. That's like a minute and

01:08:45.260 --> 01:08:47.460
a half of three dead plays. When the ball is

01:08:47.460 --> 01:08:50.819
spiked, and I think the Raiders did it, they

01:08:50.819 --> 01:08:53.100
jumped underneath the center with their hands

01:08:53.100 --> 01:08:54.939
and tried to catch the ball. They've been close

01:08:54.939 --> 01:08:57.020
a couple of times. I think there's some of that.

01:08:57.260 --> 01:08:59.039
And I'm like, well, just go ahead and let him

01:08:59.039 --> 01:09:01.699
do it. You never know, man. Well, spiking the

01:09:01.699 --> 01:09:05.260
ball. That's spiking, not hitting. And it's actually,

01:09:05.380 --> 01:09:08.699
you know, a hurry up, game on the line kind of

01:09:08.699 --> 01:09:11.569
play. Kneeling on the ball is, hey, this thing's

01:09:11.569 --> 01:09:13.229
over. We just got to go through the motions.

01:09:13.470 --> 01:09:16.670
It's like mopping up after the party or the concert's

01:09:16.670 --> 01:09:20.270
over. Why do we need to stand around and watch

01:09:20.270 --> 01:09:22.289
them go through the motions and pretending to

01:09:22.289 --> 01:09:23.970
do a place just so they can run the clock out?

01:09:24.010 --> 01:09:25.850
No, I agree. I mean, they might as well just

01:09:25.850 --> 01:09:29.329
go out on the field, and each one of them stays

01:09:29.329 --> 01:09:31.590
on their side, and they just stand there and

01:09:31.590 --> 01:09:34.050
look at the clock. And for the losing team, they're

01:09:34.050 --> 01:09:36.630
like, great, prolong the agony. And for the winning

01:09:36.630 --> 01:09:38.960
team, Fans of the winning team, I sit at home

01:09:38.960 --> 01:09:41.199
and thinking, what's the point, man? Just make

01:09:41.199 --> 01:09:43.399
it official. I'm not going to relax until you

01:09:43.399 --> 01:09:45.960
make it official. This is just irritating. Yeah,

01:09:45.979 --> 01:09:49.159
it is. I agree. And, yeah, you're right. And

01:09:49.159 --> 01:09:51.159
they don't cut for commercials or anything because

01:09:51.159 --> 01:09:53.420
the clock's running. So what benefit do they

01:09:53.420 --> 01:09:57.000
really get from making us watch that? Yeah, I

01:09:57.000 --> 01:10:00.539
agree. So far, most people I've mentioned this

01:10:00.539 --> 01:10:02.520
to are like, yeah, I could do without that part.

01:10:04.579 --> 01:10:10.250
Yep. Same here. All right. We both like the rule.

01:10:10.989 --> 01:10:14.090
Okay. I've noticed this season in particular,

01:10:14.250 --> 01:10:17.069
the Royals were in the playoff hunt, so the local

01:10:17.069 --> 01:10:21.050
channels found a way to air more key games down

01:10:21.050 --> 01:10:24.130
the stretch. The NFL already makes sure there's

01:10:24.130 --> 01:10:26.510
a free provider for local games in every market.

01:10:26.770 --> 01:10:28.930
Do you feel that will change soon, or will they

01:10:28.930 --> 01:10:32.210
leave it alone? I think it will change. I think

01:10:32.210 --> 01:10:33.689
so, too. I think they're going to start charging

01:10:33.689 --> 01:10:39.300
for local games. Yeah. Especially since there's

01:10:39.300 --> 01:10:43.340
a new change to over -the -air broadcasts. Oh,

01:10:43.359 --> 01:10:47.020
yeah. They've gone from version 1 up to version

01:10:47.020 --> 01:10:51.420
3 so they can put more information. Playoffs.

01:10:51.560 --> 01:10:54.199
I didn't do that last time. They can put more

01:10:54.199 --> 01:10:56.899
information in the signal. So remember when it

01:10:56.899 --> 01:10:59.260
went from analog went to digital for over -the

01:10:59.260 --> 01:11:00.920
-air? Everyone had to buy a converter box or

01:11:00.920 --> 01:11:03.420
buy a new TV. Yeah, yep. Now you've got to do

01:11:03.420 --> 01:11:05.659
it again. If you're getting any kind of over

01:11:05.659 --> 01:11:07.819
-the -earth signal, you're going to need a converter

01:11:07.819 --> 01:11:11.300
box or buy a new TV. Are they selling these signals

01:11:11.300 --> 01:11:14.439
too? Because I think the digital, they sold the

01:11:14.439 --> 01:11:17.159
analog. I'm not sure if it's a new frequency

01:11:17.159 --> 01:11:20.800
or they're just changing the format of the incoming

01:11:20.800 --> 01:11:22.979
signal. And if your machine can't handle it,

01:11:23.060 --> 01:11:25.760
then you won't get a signal. Okay. So you need

01:11:25.760 --> 01:11:28.520
another converter box. Yeah. So they're already

01:11:28.520 --> 01:11:30.939
screwing with people's availability to watch

01:11:30.939 --> 01:11:33.359
just free games over the air. They're already

01:11:33.359 --> 01:11:35.359
starting to make it to where, oh, you still have

01:11:35.359 --> 01:11:37.819
to spend money. And then you have to watch commercials

01:11:37.819 --> 01:11:39.899
too. I think they're eventually going to phase

01:11:39.899 --> 01:11:42.119
it out, whereas, yeah, there are no free games.

01:11:42.340 --> 01:11:45.180
Everything's pay -per -view. Yeah. Well, there's

01:11:45.180 --> 01:11:47.880
$2 a game or $10 a game. That's going to be the

01:11:47.880 --> 01:11:50.140
question. And you'll still have ads to sit through

01:11:50.140 --> 01:11:50.760
even though you're paying for the game. Oh, yeah,

01:11:50.779 --> 01:11:52.060
yeah. They don't care. They're going to still

01:11:52.060 --> 01:11:54.119
do it. They're going to start putting, I mean,

01:11:54.119 --> 01:11:58.060
if COVID hadn't come along and pretty much wrecked

01:11:58.060 --> 01:12:01.720
the movie theater industry, there were going

01:12:01.720 --> 01:12:04.640
to be commercial breaks in theater movies. Yeah.

01:12:04.699 --> 01:12:06.739
That was already in the works. That was already

01:12:06.739 --> 01:12:12.699
planned. And studios are being encouraged to

01:12:12.699 --> 01:12:15.039
make longer and longer movies. And they were

01:12:15.039 --> 01:12:17.520
also being told, start working in commercial

01:12:17.520 --> 01:12:20.119
breaks into your story and your plots and your

01:12:20.119 --> 01:12:23.520
script because they're coming. Then COVID came

01:12:23.520 --> 01:12:26.079
along and the whole movie industry is like, yeah,

01:12:26.520 --> 01:12:28.739
now it's not going to work. Yeah, because now

01:12:28.739 --> 01:12:32.659
a lot of them are going under. And also, Hollywood

01:12:32.659 --> 01:12:39.399
is boring. Yeah, yeah. So much of the movies

01:12:39.399 --> 01:12:44.199
coming out are so... They're designed to be something

01:12:44.199 --> 01:12:46.560
entertaining and fun for the next week or so

01:12:46.560 --> 01:12:48.800
and then they never matter again. Either that

01:12:48.800 --> 01:12:50.840
or they're busy trying to teach me a lesson.

01:12:51.100 --> 01:12:54.439
Yes. Yes, you still get those movies where it's,

01:12:54.439 --> 01:12:58.539
oh, here's a lecture that's thinly disguised

01:12:58.539 --> 01:13:01.600
as an entertaining movie. Yeah, they show a close

01:13:01.600 --> 01:13:04.140
-up of the main character, and he's talking to

01:13:04.140 --> 01:13:07.939
them, and it's all just a fucking message. Steven

01:13:07.939 --> 01:13:09.840
Seagal used to do that in most of his movies.

01:13:09.859 --> 01:13:11.500
There'd be a point at the end where he'd get

01:13:11.500 --> 01:13:14.500
on a soapbox and deliver his heartfelt message,

01:13:14.560 --> 01:13:16.420
what the movie was really all about. It should

01:13:16.420 --> 01:13:21.520
have never came to this. Yes. Yeah. The guy can

01:13:21.520 --> 01:13:25.899
barely speak NEM. Oh, gosh. Yeah. But, yeah,

01:13:25.979 --> 01:13:28.659
I think guaranteeing the local games for the

01:13:28.659 --> 01:13:31.340
local market is going to go away. I think so,

01:13:31.380 --> 01:13:33.180
too. It's a little ways off, but it's going to

01:13:33.180 --> 01:13:35.460
happen. Yeah. Either that or they'll give you

01:13:35.460 --> 01:13:37.279
the bare -ass minimum. They'll give you some

01:13:37.279 --> 01:13:42.260
low -def signal with crappy audio. It's like,

01:13:42.380 --> 01:13:44.800
there, there's your free access to the local

01:13:44.800 --> 01:13:47.340
games, but we're not spending any more money

01:13:47.340 --> 01:13:51.840
on that. I agree. Take it or leave it. Yep. All

01:13:51.840 --> 01:13:54.779
right. Green Bay has seemed to sneak up on some

01:13:54.779 --> 01:13:57.060
people. Oh, yeah. We both thought they were a

01:13:57.060 --> 01:14:00.039
playoff team. I didn't get my house. Do you now

01:14:00.039 --> 01:14:03.680
feel they are a true Super Bowl contender? I'm

01:14:03.680 --> 01:14:05.720
not going to say Super Bowl contender yet, but

01:14:05.720 --> 01:14:10.000
I think they are definitely. Right now, I'd say

01:14:10.000 --> 01:14:12.600
the front runner to win the division. Yeah. Because

01:14:12.600 --> 01:14:16.260
the Lions are inconsistent. They can only seem

01:14:16.260 --> 01:14:17.880
to score when they've got something to prove.

01:14:18.020 --> 01:14:24.479
Yeah. The Bears are crumbling. And combined the

01:14:24.479 --> 01:14:26.859
first two games of this year with the last few

01:14:26.859 --> 01:14:30.279
games of last year for the Bears, it's dismal

01:14:30.279 --> 01:14:33.170
looking. And I just don't know about the Vikings.

01:14:33.270 --> 01:14:35.489
We'll see how their rookie quarterback goes.

01:14:35.630 --> 01:14:38.130
But if it was between the Vikings with a rookie

01:14:38.130 --> 01:14:40.529
quarterback and the Packers with a veteran quarterback,

01:14:40.770 --> 01:14:42.930
I'm picking the Packers. Yeah, me too. I think

01:14:42.930 --> 01:14:44.630
they're going to win the division. I think so

01:14:44.630 --> 01:14:47.890
too. All right, I think they are right now. We'll

01:14:47.890 --> 01:14:50.449
see. I mean, things change. Yeah. All right,

01:14:50.529 --> 01:14:53.489
and then finally, a few months ago, earlier in

01:14:53.489 --> 01:14:55.930
the year actually, Big and the Ball Biter sadly

01:14:55.930 --> 01:14:58.880
passed away. Oh, wow. Should I still be talking

01:14:58.880 --> 01:15:01.760
about what a psychopath he was? Yes. Yes. Absolutely.

01:15:01.960 --> 01:15:04.399
Yeah. His legacy lives on. Yes, it does. He's

01:15:04.399 --> 01:15:06.920
a ball biter. Yeah. All those biting and tooth

01:15:06.920 --> 01:15:09.779
marks can't have been in vain. Should I even

01:15:09.779 --> 01:15:13.199
tell the story or not? Why not? Okay. All right.

01:15:13.260 --> 01:15:15.060
We've got some minutes to kill, right? It's only

01:15:15.060 --> 01:15:17.180
an hour and 15 in. They can handle it. All right.

01:15:17.680 --> 01:15:19.579
Well, this is back in my high school football

01:15:19.579 --> 01:15:23.909
days. Uh -huh. And we had this big kid. I'm not

01:15:23.909 --> 01:15:25.770
going to call him a psychopath because he has

01:15:25.770 --> 01:15:28.869
passed away, but everything I speak at is factual

01:15:28.869 --> 01:15:32.810
that I speak about. He had some, he was, let's

01:15:32.810 --> 01:15:34.970
say he wasn't neurotypical. Let's put it that

01:15:34.970 --> 01:15:39.569
way. Yeah, yeah, there, there. Okay. So, what

01:15:39.569 --> 01:15:45.189
he did was, on his right hand, he grew his finger,

01:15:45.430 --> 01:15:47.050
what do they call it, the one next to the pinky?

01:15:47.510 --> 01:15:50.760
Ring finger. The ring finger? Yeah. and the thumb

01:15:50.760 --> 01:15:53.979
he grew those two fingernails out and filed them

01:15:53.979 --> 01:15:57.180
down into points they were like almost like knives

01:15:57.180 --> 01:15:59.319
and you can do things to make your nails really

01:15:59.319 --> 01:16:02.239
tough and strong too oh he was a farm hand oh

01:16:02.239 --> 01:16:05.199
yeah yeah so he had i mean they look like cattle

01:16:05.199 --> 01:16:10.800
chips so he filed them down and when you were

01:16:10.800 --> 01:16:14.970
in the dog pile and he was there too If you were

01:16:14.970 --> 01:16:17.630
the leg that he could get to, he would go right

01:16:17.630 --> 01:16:20.409
up, right up next to your scrotum and have short

01:16:20.409 --> 01:16:24.470
meat. Yeah, the real tender area of that thigh.

01:16:24.689 --> 01:16:27.710
He would pinch the fuck out of you. I mean, it

01:16:27.710 --> 01:16:30.189
would bleed a lot of times. Oh, it hurt. And

01:16:30.189 --> 01:16:33.489
so the whole thing about this was that was bad

01:16:33.489 --> 01:16:36.869
enough. But we used to, we were a very small

01:16:36.869 --> 01:16:40.090
school at Cass Midway, right? And we didn't have,

01:16:40.149 --> 01:16:43.079
we really couldn't afford a football team. But,

01:16:43.119 --> 01:16:45.060
I mean, we did win state championships. We did

01:16:45.060 --> 01:16:47.739
well. But the thing is, we really couldn't afford

01:16:47.739 --> 01:16:50.359
a football team, so we had to rely on donations

01:16:50.359 --> 01:16:54.460
from, like, Rockhurst. Okay. So we had these

01:16:54.460 --> 01:16:57.020
helmets that never fit. They were pretty much

01:16:57.020 --> 01:16:58.739
worn out by the time you got them, I imagine.

01:16:58.880 --> 01:17:01.960
And every time you get hit, your helmet was liable

01:17:01.960 --> 01:17:05.659
to pop off. Yeah. So no matter how much you strapped

01:17:05.659 --> 01:17:07.359
them on or whatever, the helmet was worn for

01:17:07.359 --> 01:17:10.350
three seasons. It was done. But it's all we had.

01:17:10.430 --> 01:17:13.529
We requested white helmets, so we put the Viking

01:17:13.529 --> 01:17:15.890
horn on the side. And that was it. You know,

01:17:15.930 --> 01:17:17.729
a little sticker. Like, okay, here's my new one.

01:17:18.149 --> 01:17:21.409
Here's my new helmet. So whatever his helmet

01:17:21.409 --> 01:17:24.270
would pop off, if he could possibly get in there

01:17:24.270 --> 01:17:27.569
in between your legs, he would bite you there

01:17:27.569 --> 01:17:31.250
instead of use his fingers. Yeah. So we were

01:17:31.250 --> 01:17:33.569
getting ready to play the Drexel Wildcats. He

01:17:33.569 --> 01:17:35.750
was our arch enemy. They were just to the south

01:17:35.750 --> 01:17:37.890
about 11 miles from us. I remember Drexel. Yeah.

01:17:38.409 --> 01:17:40.210
And they were a tough team. Yeah, they were.

01:17:40.409 --> 01:17:43.529
And it was September. It was really hot out.

01:17:43.569 --> 01:17:45.710
It was like 100 and something. It was summer

01:17:45.710 --> 01:17:48.869
slamming the door on the way out. Yeah. And they,

01:17:49.250 --> 01:17:52.050
Jimmy, this little running back that we had,

01:17:52.130 --> 01:17:55.829
fast little guy, he wore white because he was

01:17:55.829 --> 01:17:58.670
playing Drexel. Okay. He was playing them in

01:17:58.670 --> 01:18:01.970
practice. And Biggin was playing midway with

01:18:01.970 --> 01:18:07.020
the purple on. Yeah. So. Jimmy had some sort

01:18:07.020 --> 01:18:10.039
of jock itch or some sort of, I don't know, pariasis

01:18:10.039 --> 01:18:13.340
or something down in his nether regions. Some

01:18:13.340 --> 01:18:15.699
sort of fungus. Yeah, something, yeah. And it

01:18:15.699 --> 01:18:17.600
was, like, really bad. He showed us. We're like,

01:18:17.699 --> 01:18:19.739
oh, my God. He couldn't put his jock strap on.

01:18:19.840 --> 01:18:22.340
Oh, God. So he had to free ball, which is dangerous.

01:18:22.420 --> 01:18:26.399
Yeah, it's kind of dangerous. So Jimmy got by

01:18:26.399 --> 01:18:28.600
Biggin a couple of times, and Biggin was not

01:18:28.600 --> 01:18:30.960
real happy with him. Yeah. So the first dog poll

01:18:30.960 --> 01:18:34.250
he did. Biggin reached in between his legs there,

01:18:34.329 --> 01:18:37.550
and his helmet popped off. And he bit him as

01:18:37.550 --> 01:18:39.409
hard as he could, but I guess little Jimmy's

01:18:39.409 --> 01:18:43.770
scrotum was kind of hanging down there. He punctured

01:18:43.770 --> 01:18:46.949
his scrotum, caused massive bleeding on these

01:18:46.949 --> 01:18:52.130
white pants. And Jimmy jumps up screaming, screaming,

01:18:52.130 --> 01:18:55.869
holding his fucking, holding his junk and blood

01:18:55.869 --> 01:19:00.329
gushing out. And the coach is like, Fuck, shit,

01:19:00.390 --> 01:19:03.090
damn. He runs over there. He pulls his pants

01:19:03.090 --> 01:19:06.909
down. What? He's saying bite marks. He goes,

01:19:06.970 --> 01:19:09.229
who did this? Who did this? And everyone pointed

01:19:09.229 --> 01:19:17.090
at Biggin. So they had the health staff administer

01:19:17.090 --> 01:19:21.630
to Jimmy, our running back, and Biggin got pulled

01:19:21.630 --> 01:19:26.270
by the ear to the office. Oh, man. So anyhow,

01:19:26.489 --> 01:19:29.109
yeah, so Biggin, should I still call him a, you

01:19:29.109 --> 01:19:31.529
know what, after talking about that, yeah. Yeah,

01:19:31.529 --> 01:19:33.210
he's still a psychopath. Look, we love him, but

01:19:33.210 --> 01:19:37.029
he's a psychopath. Yeah. Yeah. Yep. Sorry about

01:19:37.029 --> 01:19:39.170
that viral meningitis that went to your heart.

01:19:39.409 --> 01:19:42.329
No. I think that's what, I heard that he had

01:19:42.329 --> 01:19:44.369
viral meningitis, that smoked him, and then I

01:19:44.369 --> 01:19:46.289
heard that he had a heart attack. Yeah. So I

01:19:46.289 --> 01:19:48.630
put together in his age and everything, he probably

01:19:48.630 --> 01:19:51.029
had viral meningitis. Yeah. Went to his heart.

01:19:51.590 --> 01:19:54.170
Yeah. Smoked him right there. Yeah, so anyhow.

01:19:54.840 --> 01:19:57.140
Well, at least he was able to bite somebody's

01:19:57.140 --> 01:19:58.579
balls on the football field. Yes, that's right.

01:19:58.579 --> 01:20:00.520
So he probably felt his life was complete. He

01:20:00.520 --> 01:20:02.760
probably did, yeah. Let's see, is he a year younger

01:20:02.760 --> 01:20:06.939
than me? So he's like mid -50s, something like

01:20:06.939 --> 01:20:10.399
that. Yeah. So I think he did good living that

01:20:10.399 --> 01:20:13.340
long, biting people's nuts. Well, in honor of

01:20:13.340 --> 01:20:16.600
Biggin, let's talk about testicles. Okay, let's

01:20:16.600 --> 01:20:19.020
do it. You thought about that when I was talking

01:20:19.020 --> 01:20:22.939
about it. Yeah, I started writing it down. The

01:20:22.939 --> 01:20:28.720
word testicles has a Latin root, I believe. It

01:20:28.720 --> 01:20:33.359
does. And you don't think about it, but it's

01:20:33.359 --> 01:20:35.380
the basic word. Oh, here comes the truck. Hang

01:20:35.380 --> 01:20:38.479
on a second. All right, truck gone. Here we are.

01:20:38.560 --> 01:20:43.300
All right. So the word for testicles is been,

01:20:43.479 --> 01:20:47.640
it's in a lot of cultures, et cetera. Did you

01:20:47.640 --> 01:20:51.890
ever wonder before there was a Bible? I mean,

01:20:51.890 --> 01:20:53.750
humans have been around before there were Bibles.

01:20:53.810 --> 01:20:56.710
Yeah. Definitely. What did people used to swear

01:20:56.710 --> 01:21:00.409
on when there was no Bible to swear on? Testicles.

01:21:00.430 --> 01:21:03.270
They swore on their testicles. Because only men

01:21:03.270 --> 01:21:06.270
were allowed to give evidence in court. Women

01:21:06.270 --> 01:21:08.970
had virtually no rights. I think that's still

01:21:08.970 --> 01:21:11.449
done in some things. It is. You put your right

01:21:11.449 --> 01:21:14.850
hand on your testicles and swear on your testicles.

01:21:15.210 --> 01:21:17.880
Yep. I believe that's one of the ways organized

01:21:17.880 --> 01:21:20.199
crime used to do theirs. Probably so. They didn't

01:21:20.199 --> 01:21:23.479
use a Bible. They swore on their testicles. And

01:21:23.479 --> 01:21:25.539
then there's a lot of other examples, too. But,

01:21:25.539 --> 01:21:27.699
yeah, isn't that fun? Wow. And that's how you

01:21:27.699 --> 01:21:30.420
get the word testimony. Testimony, yep. That

01:21:30.420 --> 01:21:33.060
is why it's called testimony, because you used

01:21:33.060 --> 01:21:35.880
to swear on your testicles. Testament. Testament

01:21:35.880 --> 01:21:39.060
is another one, yep. Another one. Testify. That's

01:21:39.060 --> 01:21:40.640
another one. You think of all those people jumping

01:21:40.640 --> 01:21:42.760
up in church and yelling testify, they're talking

01:21:42.760 --> 01:21:46.880
about swearing on your testicles. When someone

01:21:46.880 --> 01:21:50.439
gets testy, it's because their balls are acting

01:21:50.439 --> 01:21:52.920
up. Yeah, yeah. Someone yanked your nuts and

01:21:52.920 --> 01:21:56.020
you're mad. Think of all the times in your life

01:21:56.020 --> 01:21:59.060
that you've openly talked about testicles, but

01:21:59.060 --> 01:22:02.020
it was okay because you were testimony, testament,

01:22:02.260 --> 01:22:05.399
testify. It's all testicle related. Oh, no, the

01:22:05.399 --> 01:22:09.529
FCC is going to come after that now. So you say,

01:22:09.609 --> 01:22:12.989
I swear on my balls, man. People have been swearing

01:22:12.989 --> 01:22:15.590
on their balls for thousands of years. It's a

01:22:15.590 --> 01:22:18.189
time -honored tradition. So in honor of Biggin,

01:22:18.289 --> 01:22:22.229
we're going to testify that he was testy, and

01:22:22.229 --> 01:22:26.449
it's our testimony and testament that he tested

01:22:26.449 --> 01:22:29.210
everybody. There you go, Biggin. Rest in peace.

01:22:31.109 --> 01:22:34.159
That was fun. Just know you had your mouth around

01:22:34.159 --> 01:22:36.979
a set of balls. Oh, yeah, that's something you

01:22:36.979 --> 01:22:42.399
can never that's like Cartman And then his penis

01:22:42.399 --> 01:22:44.079
just fell into my mouth and I took a picture

01:22:44.079 --> 01:22:50.500
Well, we've got a new skit coming up I need Rob

01:22:50.500 --> 01:22:54.439
to do it though, but it's Rob's Uncle Rob's tips

01:22:54.439 --> 01:22:57.439
for life, right? I've heard that, I think. Okay,

01:22:57.500 --> 01:22:59.359
yeah, yeah, yeah. The first one was dick pics,

01:22:59.500 --> 01:23:02.479
the rules to dick pics. Yeah. Although we left

01:23:02.479 --> 01:23:04.520
off number three and people were pissed. And

01:23:04.520 --> 01:23:07.260
I don't know how we did that, but we did. I still

01:23:07.260 --> 01:23:08.859
have it written down. We still got to get around

01:23:08.859 --> 01:23:10.819
to editing it and put it in number three. But

01:23:10.819 --> 01:23:12.640
right now it's funny just to piss people off.

01:23:12.699 --> 01:23:17.319
Yes. But what do you do if you're getting a haircut

01:23:17.319 --> 01:23:19.539
and you have a male barber and he accidentally

01:23:19.539 --> 01:23:22.020
touches your shoulder with his penis or his elbow?

01:23:22.460 --> 01:23:25.479
for your elbow. Oh. Yeah, how do you get around

01:23:25.479 --> 01:23:27.819
that? Because your boat was standing there and

01:23:27.819 --> 01:23:31.119
he's touching your head and he just accidentally

01:23:31.119 --> 01:23:34.420
touched you with his penis. I think his tip goes

01:23:34.420 --> 01:23:37.659
away. I think so too. And if he touches him,

01:23:37.720 --> 01:23:39.699
he'd take the tip off his dick too. Oh yeah,

01:23:39.720 --> 01:23:41.739
yeah. It's like you're losing that tip too, man.

01:23:41.859 --> 01:23:44.800
I think you need to jump up and beat up the first

01:23:44.800 --> 01:23:49.720
paraplegic you see. Yeah. And then crush a beer

01:23:49.720 --> 01:23:52.829
can against your head. Yes. Yeah. Yes. Okay,

01:23:52.909 --> 01:23:55.590
there we go. We got it. And then yell NASCAR

01:23:55.590 --> 01:24:03.670
rules. Yeah. Yeah. That's it right there. Oh,

01:24:04.829 --> 01:24:07.350
I want to talk about kickers in the NFL because

01:24:07.350 --> 01:24:09.189
they've been having a rough start to this season.

01:24:09.289 --> 01:24:12.289
Yeah, Butker hadn't looked that good. No, Butker

01:24:12.289 --> 01:24:17.510
was having some trouble. And then Commander's

01:24:17.510 --> 01:24:21.119
kicker, York. missed two field goals, and kicked

01:24:21.119 --> 01:24:23.819
the kickoff out of bounds. Oh, yeah, I saw that.

01:24:23.840 --> 01:24:26.560
He's gone. Yeah, he's gone, yep. And then Moody

01:24:26.560 --> 01:24:29.039
for the 49ers missed two field goals, and he

01:24:29.039 --> 01:24:32.560
was cut. Yep. So it's amazing. All through training

01:24:32.560 --> 01:24:37.140
camp, all through the preseason games, and you

01:24:37.140 --> 01:24:38.840
still don't know what your kicker's no good.

01:24:39.060 --> 01:24:41.180
Yeah, that's true. Where's the ball in control,

01:24:41.460 --> 01:24:44.720
man? This is just weird. I don't get that either,

01:24:44.760 --> 01:24:46.979
how you go through all that and go, well, this

01:24:46.979 --> 01:24:50.260
is our guy. Is it something that happens in real

01:24:50.260 --> 01:24:52.880
games, like they flinch up or something? I guess.

01:24:53.779 --> 01:24:58.100
And if you knew the guy was not all that and

01:24:58.100 --> 01:25:01.220
was going to let you down. Why would you even

01:25:01.220 --> 01:25:03.000
have him out? Yeah, you're going to have to deal

01:25:03.000 --> 01:25:05.199
with that at some point. Why let him lose a game

01:25:05.199 --> 01:25:07.460
for you? Just do it now. Is it a money thing

01:25:07.460 --> 01:25:10.880
maybe? I guess. Where can we save money? Oh,

01:25:10.979 --> 01:25:12.659
let's get a shitty kicker. We don't use him.

01:25:12.699 --> 01:25:15.260
Ask Carl Peterson about that. Yeah. Yeah, that

01:25:15.260 --> 01:25:18.300
worked out so well for him, Len Elliott. Well,

01:25:18.319 --> 01:25:21.560
there was one season where the Chiefs pretty

01:25:21.560 --> 01:25:26.260
much never punted because they either scored

01:25:26.260 --> 01:25:28.220
or turned the ball over. Yeah, that was like

01:25:28.220 --> 01:25:29.939
– So for that whole season, they could have just

01:25:29.939 --> 01:25:32.000
done away with the punter. Just, you know, hey,

01:25:32.060 --> 01:25:34.159
if we ever have to punt, just use a backup quarterback.

01:25:34.380 --> 01:25:36.380
Yeah, that's when they're winning games 47 to

01:25:36.380 --> 01:25:39.779
45. Yeah. 43 to 42. I think they went to the

01:25:39.779 --> 01:25:42.920
playoffs. And got clobbered by Indy. Yeah, that's

01:25:42.920 --> 01:25:45.319
right. Indy punted once in the game. The Chiefs

01:25:45.319 --> 01:25:47.850
never punted. Yeah. That was the difference.

01:25:48.210 --> 01:25:54.229
Smoked. Yep. Yep, and that was it. Yep. Yep.

01:25:54.909 --> 01:25:57.210
But, I mean, on the other hand, though, their

01:25:57.210 --> 01:25:59.449
offense played well, too. Yeah, that's true.

01:26:00.529 --> 01:26:03.590
All right. We'll see what they do about this

01:26:03.590 --> 01:26:05.970
kicker situation. I also think that the NFL is

01:26:05.970 --> 01:26:09.270
going to try to make everything but the field

01:26:09.270 --> 01:26:14.050
goal part of the kicking game pretty much not

01:26:14.050 --> 01:26:16.359
an issue. Non -existent. Yeah. Because kicking

01:26:16.359 --> 01:26:20.680
the extra point, meh. Kickoffs, meh. Punts, meh.

01:26:20.859 --> 01:26:23.699
Field goal, oh, yeah, you can bet on that. There's

01:26:23.699 --> 01:26:26.520
tension. You can have the lead up to it in the

01:26:26.520 --> 01:26:29.319
last second. Somebody calls a timeout. It's just

01:26:29.319 --> 01:26:32.600
designed for TV drama. So the field goal is going

01:26:32.600 --> 01:26:34.119
to stick around. I think the rest of the kicking

01:26:34.119 --> 01:26:37.159
game is going to, oh, yeah, while you were commercial,

01:26:37.359 --> 01:26:39.640
we had the puns and the kickoffs. Yeah, no big

01:26:39.640 --> 01:26:44.600
deal. It's going to get to that point. The NFL

01:26:44.600 --> 01:26:47.460
is examining new domestic violence allegations

01:26:47.460 --> 01:26:50.439
against Tyreek Hill. Oh, yeah, let's sign him,

01:26:50.479 --> 01:26:53.380
sure. I know. Yeah, the people who want to sign

01:26:53.380 --> 01:26:56.380
him are going to think it's be fun and cute to

01:26:56.380 --> 01:26:58.579
have Tyreek catch a few passes. And they don't

01:26:58.579 --> 01:27:01.439
even bother to think about he's tying up a roster

01:27:01.439 --> 01:27:03.619
spot and he's going to cost you millions of dollars

01:27:03.619 --> 01:27:05.680
and he's going to start yelling at his teammates.

01:27:05.880 --> 01:27:07.739
It will be one of the stupidest ideas we've done

01:27:07.739 --> 01:27:10.960
in a while. Yeah, I really sincerely hope. The

01:27:10.960 --> 01:27:12.979
Chiefs are just talking about it to get everyone

01:27:12.979 --> 01:27:14.979
excited and leave it at that. I don't even think

01:27:14.979 --> 01:27:16.479
they're talking about it. I think their fans

01:27:16.479 --> 01:27:20.039
are, not them. Yeah, that's true. The league

01:27:20.039 --> 01:27:22.500
is examining allegations by Hill's estranged

01:27:22.500 --> 01:27:26.239
wife, Keita Vaccaro. In recent divorce proceedings.

01:27:26.560 --> 01:27:29.119
Isn't she the one who had about 20 % of his children?

01:27:29.399 --> 01:27:34.180
Yes, 20%. I think it equaled out to like 20 .3

01:27:34.180 --> 01:27:37.720
% or something. Hey, no judgment. It's just I

01:27:37.720 --> 01:27:41.119
think it's funny. That's what they want to do.

01:27:41.399 --> 01:27:48.319
She was a main contributor. Yes. Barry Jackson,

01:27:48.479 --> 01:27:51.439
Miami Herald wrote Wednesday, citing a league

01:27:51.439 --> 01:27:54.399
spokesperson. So it's went to the league already.

01:27:55.500 --> 01:27:58.399
TMZ obtained records of Hill and Vaccaro's divorce

01:27:58.399 --> 01:28:01.619
proceedings Monday, which purport to describe

01:28:01.619 --> 01:28:04.439
eight different instances of domestic violence

01:28:04.439 --> 01:28:08.739
inflicted on Vaccaro by Hill. These include allegations

01:28:08.739 --> 01:28:11.539
of whipping off a necklace, twisting intimate

01:28:11.539 --> 01:28:15.300
body parts. Twisting intimate body parts. That's

01:28:15.300 --> 01:28:22.699
a teeny twister. And in TMP's and TMZ's phrasing,

01:28:22.819 --> 01:28:29.840
getting physical while pregnant. Oh. Yeah. Yikes,

01:28:29.840 --> 01:28:35.000
that's just like make it extra bad. Yeah, that's

01:28:35.000 --> 01:28:39.020
like went from disgusting to third degree or

01:28:39.020 --> 01:28:41.760
first degree disgusting from second degree disgusting.

01:28:43.079 --> 01:28:46.279
Yeah, I can't even, yeah, it's like a whole other

01:28:46.279 --> 01:28:50.739
level disgusting. So, and it said that they've

01:28:50.739 --> 01:28:53.279
been in communication with NFL and let the process

01:28:53.279 --> 01:28:56.739
play out. Mike McDaniel told reporters Wednesday,

01:28:56.880 --> 01:28:58.300
but he's probably the one that turned him in.

01:28:58.500 --> 01:29:01.840
I would hope so. The Dolphins wide receiver previously

01:29:01.840 --> 01:29:05.020
pled guilty to a charge of domestic assault and

01:29:05.020 --> 01:29:07.859
battery. Oh, so he's already got that strike

01:29:07.859 --> 01:29:10.460
on him. He's got three years probation, so the

01:29:10.460 --> 01:29:11.960
next one might be a little bit of jail time.

01:29:13.020 --> 01:29:14.819
Yeah, I don't think they're going to be able

01:29:14.819 --> 01:29:17.100
to finagle, you know, hey, man, can you let him

01:29:17.100 --> 01:29:18.960
finish the season before you lock him up? No,

01:29:19.060 --> 01:29:22.199
I don't think so. I think that if he got convicted

01:29:22.199 --> 01:29:25.359
on domestic battery or abuse charges, they'd

01:29:25.359 --> 01:29:27.960
end the season right there and say, off you go.

01:29:28.380 --> 01:29:31.819
I agree. Another thing that's really disturbing

01:29:31.819 --> 01:29:34.579
about Hill is he's 31 years old and he's in the

01:29:34.579 --> 01:29:37.060
fourth year of the Dolphins' contract, which

01:29:37.060 --> 01:29:40.359
is his final year. And he's still not playing

01:29:40.359 --> 01:29:46.239
well. I wonder how long ago this happened and

01:29:46.239 --> 01:29:48.260
if the Dolphins were trying to move him before

01:29:48.260 --> 01:29:50.659
this broke. I think so. I think that's where

01:29:50.659 --> 01:29:53.920
all the rumors came from. It's like, before this

01:29:53.920 --> 01:29:56.060
guy gets arrested and misses the season because

01:29:56.060 --> 01:29:58.180
he's in jail, let's deal with some other team

01:29:58.180 --> 01:30:01.060
and let them deal with it. Yeah, I agree. I think

01:30:01.060 --> 01:30:04.140
that's probably what happened. It wouldn't be

01:30:04.140 --> 01:30:06.600
much difference from a business saying, hey.

01:30:07.159 --> 01:30:09.520
Our stock prices are tanking and we've lost all

01:30:09.520 --> 01:30:11.420
of our suppliers, so we're going out of business.

01:30:11.640 --> 01:30:15.560
Let's sell all our stock. Yeah. I don't think

01:30:15.560 --> 01:30:18.000
the NFL is shy on doing something like that.

01:30:18.180 --> 01:30:21.460
Probably not, but that's what these people think

01:30:21.460 --> 01:30:27.760
of you. Yeah. Or they prop it all up like GameStop

01:30:27.760 --> 01:30:31.840
and all that stuff. Yeah. And then they sell

01:30:31.840 --> 01:30:34.239
it the next day. Everyone's like, hey, I got

01:30:34.239 --> 01:30:37.239
this great tip, GameStop. What? GameStop? That's

01:30:37.239 --> 01:30:38.979
been gone a long time. No, no, no, there's still

01:30:38.979 --> 01:30:42.479
five stores. What do you think about the new

01:30:42.479 --> 01:30:46.560
rivalry jerseys the NFL is pushing? What are

01:30:46.560 --> 01:30:52.220
you talking about? It's certain teams have new

01:30:52.220 --> 01:30:56.260
uniforms that are designated as rivalry uniforms,

01:30:56.439 --> 01:30:58.460
and they only wear them when they're playing

01:30:58.460 --> 01:31:01.520
a rival. I didn't know this. Yeah, I think there's

01:31:01.520 --> 01:31:04.520
like three or four teams, maybe five, that have

01:31:04.520 --> 01:31:07.060
these rivalry jerseys for this season. So they're

01:31:07.060 --> 01:31:10.039
trying it out. So imagine if the Chiefs had a

01:31:10.039 --> 01:31:12.600
special uniform they'd put on whenever they played

01:31:12.600 --> 01:31:16.359
the Raiders. That's kind of what their idea is.

01:31:16.539 --> 01:31:19.619
Or the Steelers when they played with the Browns.

01:31:19.619 --> 01:31:21.979
They always fight real hard. So they'll have

01:31:21.979 --> 01:31:23.920
a special rivalry jersey. They're supposed to

01:31:23.920 --> 01:31:26.720
celebrate the rivalry. It's just a different...

01:31:27.039 --> 01:31:30.539
configuration to sell an extra jersey. So the

01:31:30.539 --> 01:31:33.460
backstory is this symbolizes the rivalry. The

01:31:33.460 --> 01:31:37.199
reality is it's just another jersey. And if it's

01:31:37.199 --> 01:31:39.779
an iconic jersey like the Chiefs or something

01:31:39.779 --> 01:31:43.140
like that, they'll change it slightly or sell

01:31:43.140 --> 01:31:45.600
ones with different colors like black jerseys.

01:31:45.600 --> 01:31:48.779
Oh, remember the black jersey craze? Yes. The

01:31:48.779 --> 01:31:50.960
Chiefs never did issue a black jersey, but I

01:31:50.960 --> 01:31:53.460
think pretty much every other team did. Yeah.

01:31:56.010 --> 01:31:58.170
It's typical. It's just reinvented. They're trying

01:31:58.170 --> 01:32:01.390
to sell jerseys. Yeah. Yeah, and then a couple

01:32:01.390 --> 01:32:04.029
seasons from now, they'll come up with a new

01:32:04.029 --> 01:32:07.550
gimmick to make new jerseys and try to sell us.

01:32:07.569 --> 01:32:10.710
Oh, this new jersey celebrates the 100th anniversary

01:32:10.710 --> 01:32:14.569
of the Hall of Fame or whatever. It's like mattress

01:32:14.569 --> 01:32:17.329
sales. There's always a mattress sale. Yeah.

01:32:17.569 --> 01:32:20.649
Oh, my foot fell off. Let's have a mattress sale.

01:32:20.909 --> 01:32:25.609
Yeah. And also, if you like a juice, one year

01:32:25.609 --> 01:32:27.670
you'll get a Super Bowl commemorative one, and

01:32:27.670 --> 01:32:29.949
the next year you get a Lamar Hunt commemorative

01:32:29.949 --> 01:32:33.229
one. So each year they change. About the only

01:32:33.229 --> 01:32:36.090
drawback I can see of that is you're used to

01:32:36.090 --> 01:32:39.930
seeing the hometown crowd, and it's like if it's

01:32:39.930 --> 01:32:42.609
the Broncos, you'll see a sea of orange. But

01:32:42.609 --> 01:32:44.850
if they have like eight different jersey combinations,

01:32:45.010 --> 01:32:47.970
it's like I can't tell what color the crowd is

01:32:47.970 --> 01:32:49.569
because they're all wearing different jerseys.

01:32:49.750 --> 01:32:51.890
I agree. I don't know if they even really care

01:32:51.890 --> 01:32:54.649
about that. That's one thing that I can see being

01:32:54.649 --> 01:32:58.890
kind of screwed up by the 19 different jerseys

01:32:58.890 --> 01:33:03.109
you're going to buy. Yeah, Tyreek Hill is not

01:33:03.109 --> 01:33:08.210
a commodity anymore. Tyreek Hill is done. I wouldn't

01:33:08.210 --> 01:33:10.270
be surprised if he doesn't come back to the NFL

01:33:10.270 --> 01:33:13.770
after this year. But there's probably someone

01:33:13.770 --> 01:33:16.869
willing to try to sign him because of his past.

01:33:17.659 --> 01:33:20.140
I don't see him possibly going into broadcasting.

01:33:20.220 --> 01:33:22.520
I don't see him possibly going into coaching.

01:33:22.600 --> 01:33:24.479
I don't think he's got the temperament for either.

01:33:24.720 --> 01:33:27.039
He's certainly not demonstrated the temperament

01:33:27.039 --> 01:33:29.340
for either. He doesn't have the personality at

01:33:29.340 --> 01:33:34.199
all. He lashes out way too much. I think the

01:33:34.199 --> 01:33:36.239
best choice for him would be at the end of the

01:33:36.239 --> 01:33:39.220
season, retire, and then start a pretty much

01:33:39.220 --> 01:33:41.800
no -holds -barred podcast. There you go, yes.

01:33:41.800 --> 01:33:44.619
Where he tells about his whole career. high school

01:33:44.619 --> 01:33:46.659
to college to every team he ever played for,

01:33:46.739 --> 01:33:49.500
naming names, telling things that happened, and

01:33:49.500 --> 01:33:52.180
just used the word allegedly a lot. Yeah. I think

01:33:52.180 --> 01:33:55.340
that would be wildly successful. I think I would

01:33:55.340 --> 01:33:57.680
tune in to hear what Tyreek had to say about

01:33:57.680 --> 01:33:59.000
some of the things that happened in his life.

01:33:59.020 --> 01:34:01.720
I would, too. Yeah. You know, somebody down the

01:34:01.720 --> 01:34:03.659
way there is peeling a child, and they haven't

01:34:03.659 --> 01:34:05.279
quite got all his skin. I wish I heard that,

01:34:05.319 --> 01:34:07.880
the motherfucker. Yeah. Peeling him like a banana.

01:34:07.979 --> 01:34:09.359
You're supposed to start at the bottom and not

01:34:09.359 --> 01:34:12.760
the top. Yeah. They just about got all the skin

01:34:12.760 --> 01:34:14.880
off. Yeah, that's good. I mean, it's looking

01:34:14.880 --> 01:34:16.939
good. It's looking good. Yeah, they just got

01:34:16.939 --> 01:34:19.659
the feet to go. It's a turf toe. It's turf body.

01:34:19.859 --> 01:34:26.579
Turf body. I am loose inside my skin. I think

01:34:26.579 --> 01:34:30.720
we're kind of waffling now. Yeah, okay. Let's

01:34:30.720 --> 01:34:32.800
go ahead and go to the music creeps. All righty.

01:34:32.800 --> 01:34:34.500
Hey, thanks everybody for listening. We really

01:34:34.500 --> 01:34:36.739
appreciate it. The listenership is way up. Thank

01:34:36.739 --> 01:34:41.439
you. Go fuck yourself. Oh, no. Looks like the

01:34:41.439 --> 01:34:44.479
show's over, kids. Mark has explosive diarrhea

01:34:44.479 --> 01:34:48.539
and can't afford a wireless mic. Fear not, assholes.

01:34:48.560 --> 01:34:50.739
They'll be back invading your ear holes soon.
