Weekend Sports Recap

00:05:54
Speaker
Like I felt like my whole world, like I was caught in the rapture and everything was gone. And what is wrong with you? There's so many sports on. No, no, no, because I don't want basketball. He was on.
00:06:14
Speaker
That was a women's basketball. I saw a sport over the weekend was women's basketball, but it wasn't WNBA or college ah basketball. It was some women's league like laces versus nylon or something. Yeah. what yeah what it the hu and I watching, and I watched a little bit while wrestling was on last night.
00:06:39
Speaker
Uh, but I watched a little bit of hockey. I got, got to see a little bit of hockey, uh, bluejack, shout out to blue jackets. They, uh, beat the Kings in overtime. And, uh, unfortunately the kraken smacked up my penguins. I think, uh, I do believe the sabers lost yesterday too. He was a three, two game. The sabers did lose to the oilers and, um, yeah, the predators.
00:07:06
Speaker
I don't know if you're a hockey guy or not, Derek, but your Nashville predators lost to the mighty jocks. They're not good. The Preds are not good this year. yeah in A little bit. We've been struggling since we fired the coach a couple of years ago. That and since Carrie Underwood's boyfriend retired.
00:07:30
Speaker
Oh yeah. for husband But we were good. We were good after he left too. And then like, when he came back that one year and made a good, you know, it made a good run and then we were all right. And then we just kind of, that was it. It's been rough. Now the blue jackets are hanging tight to that wildcard position of the last wildcard position in in the Eastern.
00:07:53
Speaker
area. So I'm excited for that. The Blue Jackets are doing much better this season than I thought that they would after last season. So I train wreck of a of a season. But so, yeah, I watched a little bit of hockey, man, basketball. I I've been keeping up

NBA Player Stats Overview

00:08:14
Speaker
on it. I haven't won. I think I've watched like one game. This may be two games this season or the Cavs did lose to the Rockets.
00:08:24
Speaker
just Last night, they still have the they still the best record in the NBA. So I can tell you this much about the NBA, about the NBA. LeBron James is averaging less than 24 points a game. Steph Curry is averaging less than 23 points a game. Nikolai, I don't even know how to say his last name, is averaging more than 30 points a game. Women Yama is averaging less than 25 points a game. Joel Embiid is averaging less than 25 points a game. And Giannis is averaging more than 31 points a game. And I only know that because I have a free play for $500 on it. nice That is the extent of my NBA knowledge. and I don't even have to keep track of it because they do it for me.
00:09:17
Speaker
Well, we're doing a sports show now guys. So I'm going to need you to do your homework. Yeah. That league just started. It's called unrivaled and it's three V three. It just started on Friday. It's women's. Didn't they try to do something like that with trampolines on the court at 1.3 V three

Women's Basketball and Caitlin Clark

00:09:33
Speaker
with trampolines? Yeah. I think I was like, yeah is that the league that went after Caitlin Clark? And that was going to give her like a ton of money before, if she joined that league instead of the WNBA.
00:09:45
Speaker
I don't know, but Caitlin Clark left the WNBA and she went to play in Europe. Yeah, she's just opened in Europe in the off season. Yeah, they're like the live off of fucking WNBA. I thought she said she wasn't going back to the WNBA. I don't know, but if she doesn't, I don't blame her. I mean, in all honesty, there was there was legit felonies being up against her on the court every game she played. I mean, that's all matter.
00:10:14
Speaker
Oh, yeah, dude, like they were assault and battery type shit, man. They were just physically just and and no fouls were being called like picking fights with their starting fights with their because their garbage fucking nobody likes the WNBA. It was only that Angel Reese chick. That was the only one it was. No, it was the entire league. Every game she played in.
00:10:35
Speaker
And, and I, so and I, and I said it, and I know I ruffled some feathers when I said it, and I don't give a damn. You do a role reversal and that's a, and that's a black player and white players are doing that to her and it's the end of the world. Yep. but it was the whole Every, uh, every game she played in. So, I mean, you know what? Uh, if she does go to Europe for good and she leaves the WNBA good for her, good for her, because you know what she did? She did something that nobody else does facebook that she still play. Um,
00:11:05
Speaker
What she's done for the NBA that no other player has done in the existence of the WNBA is put asses in seats. Yep, without a doubt. No player in the history has done that. Not your Leslie Sparks or or any other big name. Well, you know any other big name player you can think of. She put asses in seats and there was a fan base for that league this this past season that everybody was watching.
00:11:30
Speaker
Um, and she, she was treated like ass by not only her teammates, but other players out because of jealous, jealousy, man, jealousy and spite. And it's, and it's sad. Uh, you, you know, because what that means for the rest of the league, the people are coming to the games and people are, we be, that means ladies, you're going to get more money at the end of the day. I think the average salary there is only like 75,000 a year.
00:11:59
Speaker
Yeah, like instead of hating on Caitlin, how about just play good ball and try to earn some new fans? You know what I mean? Like she's bringing more people to the seats. Just go out there and play ball and other people will become fans as well. You know, there's just like Jordan and then all of a sudden later on they were like, well, I like Scotty Pippin, Dennis Rodman, you know what I mean?
00:12:25
Speaker
I don't know that anybody liked Dennis Rodman. They just liked the watches. You were, you were, but you were barking up the wrong tree with all Dennis Rodman reference. I actually liked him. It was just fun to watch his antics on the court. You want it's for entertainment anyway. You know, say, you know, say what you say, what you want about dead Dennis Rodman, his antics on and off the court. The guy could ball.
00:12:53
Speaker
Yep. The guy was a baller man. yeah i mean he a realbo Like expert yeah yeah um monster, you know, and it yeah, no, I mean, you got a player like, and there's a line and no shade on angel Reese. She's a phenomenal player as well. But I think Caitlin Clark is one of those once in a lifetime type players that in, in, in a women's sport that she's just a monster man. I was watching some,
00:13:19
Speaker
I've always clowned the WNBA. Even myself, I found myself kind of paying more attention this past season because of Kaitlyn Cart. But I was watching some highlight reels and there was a game where they were playing against, it was it was Iowa um LSU in college when she was playing against Angel Reese. And they were mugging her then like getting physical and pushing her and elbow and and everything else.
00:13:44
Speaker
And Iowa was down by so many points. And then all of a sudden Caitlin Clark, man, she turned it on and just went in on the entire LSU team and they couldn't stop her. And it was, it was ridiculous that that girl is a phenomenal athlete. Um, and you know, some people like the.
00:14:05
Speaker
Judge people do based off their looks. She's not your traditionally good looking girl, but she does clean up pretty nice. I mean, I was judged off my looks last night. You can call me Luke Combs from now on, Derek. We didn't change your name there, Luke. You can call me Luke Combs going forward. Let me get a feature, man. Let's do a song. We can do a match up together, man. I can always use backup dancers.
00:14:31
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah, man. I'm like, Hey, can we get some of that? Can we get some of that money over here to help the network? Yeah. That's where podcast started in. He was a backup dancer.
00:14:42
Speaker
correct But, uh, yeah, yeah. Like I said, um, Yeah, we are we are starting to transition into a full fledged sports show.

Ohio State Victory and Big Ten Achievements

00:14:55
Speaker
So you guys got to start doing some doing some homework. But first, but first we must discuss the fact. Ohio State is national championships in college football. ah Congratulations to the Big 10 for having their second straight big national championship. I said I'll take it. Hey, that's close enough. I'll take it.
00:15:17
Speaker
I put working on that field on Monday night. I will take that much from you. Yeah, you did. Yeah, you did. I went back. I told you like was pocket so Tuesday I get a Snapchat for Rick. We won. We did it. I'm like, we, I didn't see your big ass out on the field. He was like, yeah, you missed me. I was all over. So I had to go back and watch the replay. and shuts off I said, I said, I was out there zooming around so fast. My ears were pinned back to my head.
00:15:45
Speaker
I didn't know Rick was on the on the Buckeyes. In all honesty, congratulations to the Ohio State Buckeyes. Like I said, for the first time in my life ever, I said go Irish.
00:16:01
Speaker
i and yeah I didn't have I didn't really have a dog in that fight. I mean, um I was excited for the Big 10 being there again. Obviously I'm always going to represent represent the Big 10. So I'm excited for that fact that the Big 10 has won their second straight. Natty next year will be our third straight when. Oregon, Ohio State, Penn State or Michigan wins it again. Yeah, CC. Yeah, they'll still be in the playoffs every year.
00:16:29
Speaker
But they're not being handed championships anymore, so they're done. You're done SEC. You're done. You're done. take Nobody cares. hey Take a seat over there next to the ACC and let the big boys from the Big 10 step up and we'll run this show for a little while. That's the crazy thing about it is like I feel like that's the reason like Texas and Oklahoma went to the SEC.
00:16:49
Speaker
You know what I mean? Cause they wanted that off better opportunities. And now it doesn't even matter where you play. You just play good ball. You've got an opportunity. yeah Yeah. You just got to win your conference and you're in. I mean, at the end of the day, uh, I just realized Kurt Warner's beard officially is the same color as his hair.

Cost of Living Discussion

00:17:08
Speaker
It wasn't like that when the season started, his beard officially blends perfectly into his hair color.
00:17:15
Speaker
i still I still stand by what I asked you the other day. um I live in Ohio. I work in Columbus. bra rounded um come go I'm I'm not blaming you. Trust me, ah you will never hear me brag about living in Ohio. but I've actually got a calendar on the wall counting down the days until I can leave. I get, quote unquote, paroled for good behavior. Huh?
00:17:44
Speaker
yeah i agree micy from the back out ohio is stupid Yeah, but she's going to try and get you to move to Pennsylvania. No, no, no, no. We're going south. We're going back down to south ah South Carolina. So the options are Charleston, Tampa, or Galveston. Okay. So avoid Tampa. Tampa is just old people. There's nothing to do there.
00:18:03
Speaker
Well, i say ter no yeah camp like I say Tampa because I do Tampa's kind of become like a second home to me. I've got a fuck ton of friends down there. So let me go to do this way. any from the return lord cartens The guy that created that just moved to Tampa is a great place to visit. Not a great place to live. not Exactly. yeah That's why it's a party state.
00:18:27
Speaker
Yeah, not even that. It's so fucking so the girlfriend had to move back down there for her son. It is so fucking expensive to live there now. She's like in the two years that I was gone to coming back now. Eighty five thousand a year won't cover the bills for a single person. Yeah. No, I my number one spot where I want to be at is yeah I want to be back in Charleston. I loved it down there. It was perfect.
00:18:54
Speaker
The cost of living wasn't terrible. And it's got a good mix of young and older people. There's stuff to do that's not all touristy. There's stuff to do that is all touristy. So you can entertain guests when they come to town. Charleston is actually a really good city. Mostly for me, it's the historical value because I love it. That's what I love about it. The history and the architecture.
00:19:15
Speaker
Yeah, that's what I love about it. It's like 45 minutes from Savannah, which they call a little bit. ah the What is it? The little sister to Charleston because it's actually almost an exact replica of Charleston. You say 45 minutes from Savannah to Charleston, like 45 minutes to an hour. I think your numbers are skewed tremendously. Oh, no, because I can be wrong. I was in a moment.
00:19:47
Speaker
they did advantage It's about two hours. we close Yeah, bro. I argued me. I got it pulled up right here.
00:19:58
Speaker
looked to records still dont know Hold up. It's about two hours. I don't know. I made it there pretty quick. anyway one went down there I went down there a couple of times.
00:20:10
Speaker
um see question steve I had a buddy of mine whose son played baseball and he he called me one day and he was like, bro, uh, I need you to do me a favor right over to the house. My stupid son forgot his cleats. I'm like, okay, where are you guys at? He's at Savannah. I was like, isn't that like six hours away, bro?
00:20:30
Speaker
He's like, no, man. It's just like right down the road. So it didn't feel like a two hour drive. Cause I got there pretty quick. And then there was, then there was a random weekend where I was like, I'm not, it was after, after me and the X split. And I was like, I want to go to Savannah for the weekend. That whole section there from about Savannah up to.
00:20:51
Speaker
basically OBX, the Outer Banks. That's a really big baseball area. Huge baseball area. yeah My boss, my boss went to minor league baseball after college and everything.

Minor League Baseball Memories

00:21:02
Speaker
And he went to college in South Carolina. He played ball here in Georgia, went to South Carolina, then got picked up by a team out of Chicago and fucking then cocaine and alcohol took hold and he didn't play ball very well. So he went back to being a business owner. You know, a little much.
00:21:20
Speaker
yeah yeah We used to go to the River Dogs games all the time, the minor league baseball in Charleston, and it it was always a man. They had a nice stadium and and they had like this really cool fucking party patio where like Thursday nights they had a DJ and shit up there and there's a dance floor and dude, it was crazy. and for i have like I have the room about 10 minutes from me. We have we we have a really cool We have the Columbus Clippers and their stadium is actually right across the street from my building where my, where I work at. Yeah. I have nationwide arena. I think you showed it to me. establish before Yeah. Nation wide arena Huntington park where the, um, where the blue jackets or where the ah Clippers play. And then right next door to Huntington park is lower level that.com arena or whatever the hell they call it, where our major league soccer team plays, uh, the Columbus, they actually had the MLS.
00:22:16
Speaker
Yeah, they actually had the MLS all-star weekend was in Columbus issue because they sat up in the in the courtyard right in in front of my buildings. It was so cool, man. Like I'm not a big soccer guy, but man, they were setting up in that light that Friday that I was there. They they opened up all the events and stuff like that. And because I worked down there and I worked in the buildings, you could go over for free.
00:22:35
Speaker
And there was a lot of cool things, man. Not being a soccer fan, I just kind of walked through real quick and and talk to a few people. But it was really cool that they had the the major league all-star weekend there. The all-star game was there. I haven't seen the arena, but I want to. I've heard it's a really cool ah arena that they have for the crew. The old one, they've actually turned into a concert venue now. So the old cruise stadium is is now a concert venue.
00:23:05
Speaker
but um Yeah, man, we you know, we got lots of sports right here in the area, but yeah. So I been here too i love my early baseball man Clippers used to be an affiliate to the Yankees. I've met Jeter and some other ah Yankees who came through when I was a kid when younger. um He this is what he was young. He was i was gonna say before he became an asshole.
00:23:32
Speaker
Yeah. Uh, this is, yeah, this is before he became huge, a bunch of other players. Now we're, uh, now we're, uh, an Indians affiliate or guardians. I'm sorry. Um, yeah, we have been right. We have been for years. So, you know, there's a lot of, go ahead, ah finish that up before I lose the thought. But yeah, a lot of players come through in the minor leagues before they hit the majors and then when they're injured, uh, because I know when I was in Charleston, uh, what's his name for the Yankees when he was coming back for an injury, he actually was playing on the river dogs team.
00:24:03
Speaker
I can't remember who it was. But that was really cool because he actually turned out to be a pretty nice guy. And you hear bad stories about him and he actually turned out to be a nice guy. But anyways, what's your thought? Do you think if the Washington commanders turn back into the Washington Redskins, then it will spark a precedent and teams will change back to what they were?

Washington Commanders Name Speculation

00:24:26
Speaker
Yes. You will get the Cleveland Indians back versus the Cleveland Guardian.
00:24:32
Speaker
Do you think that'll be the case? Because I know they're they're heavy in that conversation of the Guardian or the commanders going back to being the Redskins.
00:24:45
Speaker
So I'm currently watching all the clips and shit. They're talking about draft day and stuff like that. For the Eagles and the commanders, because they made some big big trades on draft day.
00:25:03
Speaker
So, but, uh, yeah, so Ohio state managed to pull it off and dominate, absolutely dominate ass over the Notre Dame falling Irish, um, or failing Irish, whatever you want to call them today. I gotta, I give props to Ohio state for their play. on england day was that was di They went on a terror after that loss for the big 10 or after that loss to Michigan. And once that loss happened, they were like,
00:25:34
Speaker
If we don't win out, Ryan days loses his job. gave a fucking moron And we're going to be irrelevant for two seasons. So they just went out and they played and his le very ridiculous football. Yeah. like um Dominantly ridiculous football. Although I will say they were this close.
00:26:02
Speaker
to imploring in the second half of that Notre Dame game. They were this close to absolutely self-destructing and losing that game. And that would have been absolutely atrocious. Like that would have been the end of Ryan Day's coaching career at Ohio State, no doubt in my mind. Yeah, you you know like I said, shout out to Ohio State, man. Nice win. Congrats.
00:26:28
Speaker
Congrats on on the on the on the Natty and everything like that. I know like I know I was I talked a lot of shit. That's what I do. I talk shit. guys That's what I do. It's a sports show. You want somebody that's going to talk shit. You want somebody that's going to be crazy. I talk shit. But congratulations. that I'm excited for the Big Ten. That's yeah again, I say. But however, Ryan days a fucking moron. Well, he's definitely not one of our best head coaches we've ever had quote after they won the national championship. oh this year's national championship team could beat last year's national championship team. Hey, stupid! You ain't beat that team in four fucking years. And this year's 90 national championship team, they lost to the worst Michigan team I've seen in a decade. Yeah. Like you barked the wrong shit out right there. Like you're an idiot for that one. I'll even say he's an idiot. So now what you've done and Michigan is going to be
00:27:23
Speaker
180 better than what they were this year that defense should speak volumes What we had this year and all those guys are coming back and more that defense should speak volumes of how scary nasty they can they can be with with an offense and they're stacking their offense this year this offseason and Michigan's coming back to form. They're going to be a force to be reckoned with again in the Big Ten I think we're gonna see another six or seven teams from the Big Ten and the playoffs this year coming up Yep. Indiana looks good. I don't think that was a flute from Indiana. I think they've got a really good head coach in Indiana. penstein always yeah Penn State is always usually pretty good team in the mix. Oregon, we know Oregon is going to do what Oregon has always done. They're always a good team. Oregon's been a top 10 team for the last 10 years. Yeah. Ohio State is always good.
00:28:15
Speaker
Um, you know illinois was this year a fluke for illinois or are we going to get shocked in the ally? And are they actually building a fucking team out there? Nobody expected wouldn't that be something if the fucking fighting ally and I decided they were suddenly wanted to show up and play in the big 10 for a little while Yeah, you know, so I mean the big 10 And we have you and we have you you see it or usc now. Yep ah They're typically a good team And you have to think about this, you have three teams in the upper Midwest that are due to have their turnaround time between Nebraska, Wisconsin, and Iowa. Those three teams notoriously roll through changes about every 10

Iowa's NFL Defensive Talent

00:28:54
Speaker
years. And then all of a sudden Iowa is producing some of the top defensive players in the NFL draft.
00:29:01
Speaker
big I mean, I'm wearing one right now AJ up an S a Iowa boy like these those schools up there produce your Star defensive players in the NFL Really? Yeah, so I mean get ready for the Big Ten. We're We're much like much like Michigan did in Ohio. We're planting our flags You're staking our claim as being in the best conference in college football and And I'm excited for it. I'm excited for college football. I said it all season long. I said it last year when it was announced and I know they're going to tweak it and I know they're going to, you know, make some changes and whatnot. But I love this playoff system in college football, ah an actual playoff system where the committee is almost completely out of the equation.

New College Football Playoff System

00:29:49
Speaker
It's based off your records. It's based off of winning a conference. We joked about SMU early in the season and
00:29:58
Speaker
We didn't even realize they were in the ACC and we we're making and I'm and I was I was an i like I jumped on the SMU bandwagon and at the beginning of the season. and yeah they got there they got smoked in the playoffs but they were there maybe they had the chance they had the chance man SMU let's go I still don't know where they're from I don't know what their mascot is but let's go SMU they're the Mustangs choose so so the mustangs and mexico south maryily i don't know where they're from but let's go s andu they're the Mustangs they're the SMU Mustangs
00:30:33
Speaker
Yeah, I don't know where they're from. But anyways, you know, I think the playoff system is going to not the college walls. It never not been exciting, but I think it's going to get better and it's going to be better. And it's going to be fun to watch. Uh, and I'm excited for it at the end of the day, the Southern Methodist university out of Dallas, Texas, Southern meth. That's all I heard.
00:30:57
Speaker
Let's go. Woo hoo. That's fucking great.
00:31:05
Speaker
Oh, but now I think the cool thing about it is we're going to see teams like Boise and Hawaii. And even if they have that one fluke season where they're good, we're going to get to see these teams that we've always wanted to see make them make a national championship or the, or, or, you know, the 14 playoff and be given a chance because as we learned.
00:31:28
Speaker
from Jamie Foxx and Al Pacino, any given Sunday, any given Saturday. So just so you know, a little bit of backstory about your SMU Mustangs. So the next time you want to hype them up and somebody's like, you don't know nothing about them. You can tell them. Well, I know that. Laura Bush graduated from there, and Rick Scott graduated from there, and Courtney Kardashian graduated from there, and so did Brian Baumgartner, and Kathy Bates, and Aaron Spelling. Those are all SMU alum. Wow, that person had to get it. Jason DeChambeau, he's SMU alum. Yeah.

Misery. I thought she did an old, old horror movie. I thought it was Psycho.
00:32:41
Speaker
I don't think she was in Psycho, but she did Misery. That was the Stephen King thriller horror movie where she kidnapped the writer and like had him chained to the bed and broke his ankles and shit. Yeah, yeah it's just.
00:32:55
Speaker
Yeah. She's, she's a great Aaron spelling who we all have heard that name before.

Notable SMU Alumni

00:32:59
Speaker
If, if for no other reason than the fact you watch D to the mighty ducks, when he talks about his uncle Aaron spelling, I think uncle Aaron would be rather upset. Oh, oh, I'm sorry. Please don't tell Mr. Spelling as they get in their drinking orange juice. If you've never seen D to the mighty ducks climb up one of these, you're rock. Yeah. watch that um yeah man there's there's um There's a lot going on in the sports world. I'm excited that we're going to go on to a full fledged sports show and talk all sports. It is my, it is, you know, I'm an expert by no means, but I enjoy talking sports. So, we'll we'll be around to talk some stuff while football's taking a little while.
00:33:46
Speaker
Yeah. I was going to say, it's not just, it's, it's, there's just going to be, there's not going to be as many games. We still have a whole coaching round table to go through. We've got trades. We've got draft. We've got all the um news out of the coaching round table. Speaking of which OC Joe Brady for the Buffalo bills has opted out of a second interview with new Orleans and said he is remaining as the Buffalo bills, offensive coordinator. Nice.
00:34:11
Speaker
ah Two things I want to ask you guys, speaking of the coaching roundtable, this coaching coach, the circulation first thing right off the rip, Pete Carroll to Vegas. Did he go? Is that where he went? He got hired. yeah He got hired. That was that was one of, you know, Tom Brady's I'm not the Raiders. And that was, I guess that was a Tom Brady decision to bring to bring Carol to to to Vegas. what what What you think on that there?
00:34:41
Speaker
I don't know. I just heard it. Yeah. that is That's it. I'm like, I need to look it up. I need to look into it. I don't even remember. I'm not mad. I like Pete Carroll as a coach. remember I don't even remember who the quarterback is for the Raiders right now. I don't think anybody knows who the quarterback is because I thought no don't know. who I don't know who plays on the Raiders right now. Is the AOC Aidan O'Connell?
00:35:10
Speaker
Dude, they were playing quarterback were left this year. Yeah, they they were kind of fucked up with a quarterback. Let me see if I mean they being of like that period since they've been to Vegas. Well, I will say that they do have. In my opinion, you know. In my opinion, probably, and I know that it doesn't typically typically go to this player. But.
00:35:39
Speaker
a rookie of the year without a doubt outside of, you know, take Jane Daniels and, and, and, uh, Bo Nix out of the equation is Brock Bowers. Tight in who had an absolute monster season. yeah wow They got, they got Aidan O'Connell, Desmond Ritter. Uh, and, and they, they had men shoe out there at the beginning of the season. He's not listed on their roster anymore. Um,
00:36:03
Speaker
Yeah, plus, I mean, he's not. We've seen how that story plays out multiple times. Yeah, I think I think. Maybe. Next year, and and I'm not the biggest fan of Pete Carroll. I think he's a bit of a scumbag, especially the way he did USC when they started getting into their legal issues. Kind of had coach. so He dipped, but no, he's a he's a

Pete Carroll and Raiders Impact

00:36:33
Speaker
phenomenal coach. I think he did relatively pretty well ah in Seattle outside of the stupid Super Bowl, where you have arguably one of the best running backs in the league and you're on the one yard line and you decide to throw the ball and you lose to the Patriots because you right now that was a fucking yeah i remember a retarded move. Yeah. ah But um I think I think within two seasons, we'll probably see a a little bit of a turnaround.
00:37:00
Speaker
with the Raiders, with Pete Carroll running the show. That's what I was going to say. They're going to have to give him a couple of seasons for sure. Yeah. um And and and i think I think I don't know how long his contract is, but within if he's there for at least five years in that five year span, I think that they'll become a playoff team. Now, granted, I mean, they do play in a pretty tough the, you know, uh, and in the, uh, AFC West, which is, I mean, pretty tough with Kansas, LA and Denver. Yeah. Yeah. Those are three teams that all hit the playoffs this year. That's a hell of a fucking conference division. Does the coaches salary count against the cap? No, no, no. Did they pay him retard money?
00:37:59
Speaker
I don't know what they gave him. No, that's why I was asking though, because they gave Chucky all that money and then they're still paying him, right? Or did they get out of paying them because of what happened? I think they might've got out of paying them because of what happened. 100 million. Yeah, I wonder. one Okay. So, okay. Here we go. Pete Carroll has a, uh, Raiders agreed to report, reported three year contract as new head coach.
00:38:28
Speaker
Um, so I, I definitely see a turnaround by year two, maybe year three, they might, uh, uh, they might, uh, uh, give them a contract extension. good Raiders offer Carol opportunity to rebound, uh, the 14 year attending. And they've got 94 million in cap space. And they got they got a lot of to work with.
00:38:57
Speaker
Um, they don't say how much Pete Carroll, it doesn't say how much he's getting paid. Maybe they could buy all the rest of the Sean Watson's contract for you guys. I'm you, I'm telling you, um, I think if Cleveland Cleveland has an argument to get out of that contract with, uh, with his dumb ass, making little picky talks, dancing around without it and then re-injuring himself.
00:39:25
Speaker
They, they, they, ah they, uh, it says Raiders owner Mark Davis later said the team reached a settlement with Gruden over the final years of his contract. Even then he was there for years. They'd already given him 40 million, I guess. Yeah.
00:39:43
Speaker
yeahga paint if i'm scary right yeah right Also in, uh, Chief chiefs are seven. I know with 12 passing touchdowns is their interceptions since Chiefs week lost 11 of the bills The bills are putting up 12 passing touchdowns in three games. Who the fuck are you selling that statistic to? the jes are One of the lowest scoring offenses in the league Yeah, they're garbage garbage team Yeah, I remember what happened with Gruden, right? Yeah yeah we got thank you What do you think he's doing right now? laughing
00:40:19
Speaker
I'm saying like, you know, yeah, of course he's paid, you know, but I mean, the way those pretty embarrassing, you know, with his little emails and shit like that. Yeah, whatever it was, I didn't see it. they said is saying racist stuff. So, you know, I mean, obviously, that's not. go Yeah. I think he called john it called somebody a Dunlop. He's an advisor. He's an advisor for the Milano Seaman of the European League of Football. ah
00:40:56
Speaker
yeah knew i was this sir i i laugh star I'm surprised you're able to straight face that statement. Milano semen. Milano semen. Oh, I don't think I'll ever look at a cookie the same.
00:41:18
Speaker
What you eating there? Oh, you know, a little Milano semen. Just a cookie. It's just a cookie. It's just a cookie. I didn't you say he was getting paid. I know y'all probably moved on past that but uh with the Raiders. Oh, I don't know. It didn't. It didn't say how much he's getting paid. I can't remember his damn name now. Uh we'll see. How much is Pete Carroll making this deal with Vegas? The parole. Uh three-year deal. right poorly agreed Three-year contract.
00:42:00
Speaker
Yeah, it doesn't, doesn't say the details of his, of his deal. Damn. He's 73. Holy shit. but An option for a fourth year.
00:42:11
Speaker
du type yeah So yeah now that I just learned that Pete Carroll went to the Raiders, should we talk about Brian Schottenheimer as the new Cowboys head coach?
00:42:26
Speaker
i either When the real man of genius in the NFL, Jerry Jones makes fucking utterly idiotic decisions. Oh, Deon Sanders is but hurt he didn't get the head coach. on dollars I don't blame him. I don't blame him. Do you know how many people are saying that it's because Jerry Jones is racist? Damn. I mean,
00:42:56
Speaker
What? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. And you're going to tell me in that argument, you're going to tell me Dion Sanders was more qualified, more qualified than a multitude of the coaches that are circling looking for a job right now.

Deion Sanders and Jerry Jones Debate

00:43:15
Speaker
Yeah. And because he didn't get picked because he's done what? yeah One year in college as a coach. He's he's he's done four i think he's done four years in college.
00:43:26
Speaker
Jerry Jones got an ego. Yes. Exactly. He don't want Dion there taking all the light. Not him. Yep. It's a Dick measuring contest at the end of the day. That's exactly what it is. And one hundred percent what it boils down to. I am. I do not. Um,
00:43:52
Speaker
i just tell you about homes will three feet big shot. out like while With the help of all his step daddies and black and white. Yeah, your cool they right there, buddy. Yeah. um Yeah. Jerry Jones is an idiot. First and foremost, the Dallas Cowboys. Nobody cares about Dallas Cowboys. Let's be honest.
00:44:12
Speaker
Oh, well, Dallas Cowboys fans care about the Dallas Cowboys, but nobody cares about Dallas Cowboys fans either flip plug yeah everywhere, dude. They're like goddamn mosquitoes. They are literally all over the place. They're like, that's just because they used to be America's team. Quote unquote. yeah They were never America's team. They were always just Dallas's team. They were, they were labeled as America's, you know, that, you know, that threaten when the and when the NFL was doing that,
00:44:39
Speaker
trying to name America's team. You know who they went to first? They went to Pittsburgh Steelers. from dallas Yeah, it pis and I can't think of the owners of the the Steelers. um They said no either way.
00:45:00
Speaker
Yeah, they're like, yeah, no, we're, we're the Pittsburgh Steelers. We don't need that Monica. We're, we're, you know, we like we know where we stand as a, with a fan base. We don't need that Monica. We're going to go ahead and pass. But I think, I think quote unquote America's team. I think they should treat that like, like a presidential thing and, and, and let the fans vote on it every couple of years.
00:45:19
Speaker
Every year, every year, let's do it every year, every year, every two years, something like that. We're like, all right, let's, let's take a van, a fan poll and see who America's team is. And you know what? Let's do it a little bit further. Whoever gets voted as America's team hosts the pro ball that year.
00:45:38
Speaker
that That'd be cool. Oh, that'd be so cool. Right? Because they needed the chance. Well, ah but you also have to ban the Swifties from casting their vote because they literally changed the entire demographic of the NFL. i'm for you ah good deal yeah roger goodell you wased that on yeah human flash i think I think the only downside with with the Americas team hosting the Pro Bowl is that players wouldn't be nearly as excited because, you know, the Pro Bowl is always in Hawaii.

Pro Bowl and NFL Draft Event Proposal

00:46:08
Speaker
Well, not in Orlando now. Is it Orlando this year? Yeah. but doing it like why like years but Tickets only $29. I could have gone to it. It's like 20 minutes. A few years ago, but that would that would be cool. You know, is anybody can watch the pro bowl anymore now that it's flag football.
00:46:27
Speaker
but the i shop angel call science competitions are cool They made that like uh god, what was that old show they used to do where they had all the weird little skills competition It's almost kind of like american gladiators for skills. I was gonna say american gladiators. Yeah Yeah, that's all i They ought to have them play american gladiators yeah that's funny No, I, yeah. Ever since the switch to a flag game and I don't care about the game anymore. I used to love watching because i mean even when it was an actual game, it's not like the guys were going a hundred miles an hour. You know what I mean? They weren't trying to hurt each other, but they were still playing contact football. You know what I mean? Um, and then when they made that switch over to flag, I'm like, this is fucking lame. At least they started to steal. I love the skill competitions. I think those are super cool. I watched those during the NBA all-star break.
00:47:20
Speaker
Uh, the major league baseball all-star break that's you're into combine too. Yeah. Um, you know, but, uh, but yeah, no, that would be a cool concept, man. You vote every year and the winner hosts the the pro bowl or, or even, or even somehow, uh, get the, get the, get the draft involved in there. You know, um, cause you know, when you take even, even when Cleveland hosted the NFL draft a couple of seasons ago, a couple of years back.
00:47:47
Speaker
And I wanted to go so bad, but a buddy of mine, he he, him and his, him and his sons went. And it was funny because you send me a picture and he's got one son who's a Browns fan, one son who's a Bengals fan, another son who's like a Panthers fan. He's a, he's a 49ers fan and they're all out there. They're, they're gear. They went to all the events and everything like that. Um, that's something I would like to attend this draft weekend on you because that, that looks like it'd be fun as hell as well. So and here's an idea.
00:48:17
Speaker
Why don't we move the Pro Bowl to say March or April? Okay. And include the draft in it. This way, those that are picked that still have playoff games left or Super Bowl left can actually play.
00:48:33
Speaker
that would be cool too if you made like a you would have to almost make it a like a week-long event. Well the dude I was gonna say CMA Music Fest in June in Nashville is a week-long event and Derek knows this it is a week it is like a Wednesday to Monday kind of deal. The Pro Bowl and the draft combine it all into one big thing you have a stadium in Orlando that they're doing it in make it a bucket thing, have all sorts of activities. I did. It's nothing but a moneymaker for the NFL to put the Pro Bowl and the draft all in one. And then you and do it in like March or April, whenever they're, whenever the draft would be, because then you allow the teams who's, well, I can't say Buffalo because they literally had nobody, yeah which is hysterically funny, but you allow the teams that have players that are still going to the Superbowl that are going to have to opt out anyways.
00:49:25
Speaker
It's just, I think it would make more sense to do that. And then like you said, make it like a week long thing. Yeah, that would, that would be cool. That would be, man, you want to talk about an event that would just. If you make it a week long, put the call and put the combine there to start the week with the combine.
00:49:44
Speaker
Yeah, you you want to talk about massive money coming to us. Oh, my God, it would be ridiculous. Yeah, that that would be. But it would be so cool. And with the Pro Bowl being so affordable.
00:49:57
Speaker
You don't say, okay, so the price goes from, cause tickets are as low as $29 for this year's Pro Bowl in Orlando, right? yeah So you up it to $59, you combine all that in there. And then if you want a ticket to the draft party, you know, that's an add-on that you can get. yeah And then, you know, you've got all that stuff.
00:50:20
Speaker
in one, you know, that's like, uh, especially a kid, a kid dreaming of being a football player. Well, that'd be like a dream come true for a kid. oh yeah See all that stuff all in one, one setting to see the players that are doing the combine and possibly meet and greet and talk with players who potentially could be your next Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, you know, that would be so cool for those kids.
00:50:42
Speaker
I was thinking that too when you said the cool part would be about those guys going ahead and meeting them. But you know what, I think the problem is, which I guess this could happen anyway, and I'm not leaning either side, but I mean, I don't know like if it's a problem either, but what about those players that they meet and they're trying to like convince them to come to their team?
00:51:08
Speaker
a that i mean with you no I don't think there'll be a problem because, you know, teams are already, you know, they're very teams yeah teams are already reaching out to players that are coming into the draft. Cause I know, uh, Sanders, like they, they had an article the other day that Sanders has already talked to Cleveland Buffalo.
00:51:31
Speaker
New York, I think. but And because of that, I just saw an article. that He may not, he may not throw at the combine yeah because of that. yeah That's what I was thinking too, is my next thing was, okay, but what about these kids? You know, they come out there and they do the little skills challenges and they suck, but they're really good. Now the team's looking at them and they probably wasn't even trying. They were just having fun.
00:51:53
Speaker
and yeah for now g Yeah, we might not want that kid we want to drive this other guy Yeah, i mean i give but it' still be fun though i still think it's a good idea and we don't love be like i'm sorry go ahead yeah it would definitely be a fun event and especially for the kids cuz like I said, you know, my son, uh, you know, he's 11 and, and, and, and this season, uh, last season, he was, he was watching football and paying a little bit of attention this year. He's like, he's, he's, he's in, man. He he's, we were back here talking about the playoffs ever since the playoffs started, uh, last, not last week of the weekend before he was sick and he was laying back here.
00:52:37
Speaker
uh, in the bedroom while we were doing the show. And then when I got up, I asked him if he wanted to come out to the living room and he's like, I'm going to, um I'm just going to lay here and watch the game. And he laid back here and watch the watch, I think the Philadelphia game or something, whatever the early game was. And, uh, he kept coming out and just giving me updates. And I'm like, I got it on out here, bro. You can watch it with with me. Uh, but you know, he's, he's on board and I think that'd be something cool to take him to like that.
00:53:01
Speaker
Just take a week off work, man, and go and get the combine. You get the the pro bowl experience and you get the draft experience. So here's another thing to add to it. Now you've also got the biggest names of these teams interacting with these college kids at the combine.
00:53:17
Speaker
which allows you to see if they're going to jive together because you know teams like like the Jets from there and Rogers or even probably the Bills with with Allen the Chiefs with my homes those players have an impact on who the GM picks in the draft.
00:53:31
Speaker
You know that because if a quarterback says, I don't like that receiver. I don't like the way he he carries himself off the field. I don't like the way he treats people who pay attention to him. They're not going to draft that guy. So now you have a chance to get your top tier players intermingling with these college kids to see what ones do jive together because you need that, that camaraderie and that, that, um, like You need that company shipping everything right there between those players. They have to be able to mesh for it to be successful. Yeah, you gotta you gotta see if you have that cohesion. Yes, that's the word I wanted.

Community and Sports Watching

00:54:08
Speaker
Yep, you need to update your background. No, I don't. It's playoffs. I'm not and you know how much works involved in and why don't you update it for me? Why? You know how much works involved in getting an updated bracket?
00:54:20
Speaker
just
00:54:23
Speaker
It's just it's just it's just a playoffs you are you just like disappeared. You're like where did it's like Wilson for home improvement just put your eyes up Hey Wilson got a question about today's football games, okay um um I'm a little bit disappointed that you know part of me is disappointed. We don't we don't have our lawyer present today, but nonetheless i like it I like the casuals. I like the casuals. I don't lie. I was a sinner today. I skipped church. It's OK, though, because you had to pray to the football gods for the Bills to beat the Chiefs. That's right. and I told Wyatt that him and his sister need to hold hands and pray to whatever football gods there are that the Chiefs lose today. But so here's a here's the neat fact about today's game with the Chiefs and the Bills, because we are a sports podcast. So let's keep it sports, too.
00:55:19
Speaker
The officiating crew for the Buffalo Bills, Kansas City Chiefs game today is led by none other than Klete Blakeman, who, if you pay attention, the Chiefs are only six and five when Klete is, is officiating their games. He is notoriously known as one of the more fair officials when he is officiating a Kansas City Chiefs game. So that is big help.
00:55:49
Speaker
I've seen a somebody did a TikTok video and they imposed Josh Allen's head on Adam Sandler's head from the longest yard. And he said the Buffalo Bills play in the playing the Kansas City Chiefs. And it was- Was that when he hit him in the nuts with the football?
00:56:05
Speaker
yeah You're going to call the fair game now, right? Yeah. ah fucking I almost said it to you. I was like, and then I saw it too. I love the ones where they A.I. Chris Collins worth the voice of the almighty Mahomo, the almighty Mahomo. Don't touch my boyfriend. Don't touch Don't touch the almighty Mahomo.
00:56:35
Speaker
alighty myhold i's doing a zestty dropback that protect me um but i seen one too um wish i could show it on here so funny if i could send it to you there was a player for the eagles in nineteen thirty five and thirty six named eggs mansky
00:57:04
Speaker
And one of them was John Goodyear. All right, I just sent you that one on messenger, Gleek. Okay. Is it on my homo clip? It's not a clip, it was just I could, he'll see it. The Almighty, my homo drops back in his zesty dance. I can just hear it now, Jim Nance. It's like, and it's intercepted by Hamlin for the first time in 31 years. The Buffalo Bills are heading back to the Super Bowl and then it's he says, oh, Jim, we got a late flag here. Yeah. Yeah. Yup. Yup. That's exactly. That is a damn fact. Um, one real quick here, uh, speaking to the coaches, uh, you know, the, the coaches a little craziness going on here. Did you guys hear about the Jaguars hired? Uh,
00:58:00
Speaker
I heard they hired somebody, but I don't remember who it was. They, they hired off the bucket ears, offensive coordinator, Liam, Liam Cohen, uh, to be their new head coach. But here's the thing. There was like a, there was some like shady underhanded type shit going on there. Cause Liam told the bucks, like I'm your guy. I'm not going anywhere. Blah, blah, blah. And then went MIA for a couple of days. Wasn't returning phone calls. Wasn't answering emails. Wasn't answering texts messages.
00:58:30
Speaker
And then it popped up, I think it came up Friday, Thursday or Friday. Uh, after a couple of days of no contact with the Buccaneers, he sent him an email saying that he had taken the job with Jackson. Mind you, he'd already told Jacksonville that he wasn't going to take the offer. You know, he he ah unaligned himself with Jacksonville, told him they wasn't going to take the offer, told but Tampa he wasn't going to take the offer. He was staying in Tampa and then went ghost mode.
00:59:00
Speaker
And then the next thing I hear from, from Liam and Tampa is I have taken the head coaching job in Jacksonville. I mean, it is what it is. The coaching carousel is always going to be full of some shady shit. Yeah. i think But it goes the same for these owners and the way they fire these coaches. Look what they did to Mike Vrabel. He went to be inducted into the ring of honor in New England. And because he did that, Tennessee fired him and he was a winning coach. Yeah.
00:59:29
Speaker
Like it's the shady shit goes from the owners all the way to the coaching man to fuck those two. That's like worried about too rich people arguing over an extra decimal or a decimal point misplace and I'm tightening up. I'm tightening up. You know what I mean? Unless, you know,
00:59:44
Speaker
You know, you know how it is. We're making picks and I'm tightened down, you know, and I know oh I hope that he beats the brakes off of us this year. Oh, yeah. My variable, I think is a phenomenal hire for the New England Patriots. I think he is an absolutely phenomenal hire. He's got the history there. He's got the respect there. I truly think that he is going to bring New England back to where they are competitive with Buffalo on a regular basis.
01:00:13
Speaker
Um, and it actually makes me a little bit nervous because he very likely, and he's also still really good friends with Bill Belichick. So he very likely could be the next Bill Belichick in New England. And that makes me super nervous because he's young. So he can do it for a long fucking time. Speaking of a Belichick, I've seen an article the other day.
01:00:33
Speaker
with this coaching carousel and all the hires that are potentially out there and new hires and teams looking for coaches. Apparently his deal with, with North Carolina is not 100% locked in yet. I don't think he's coming back. I don't think he'll come back to the NFL. I really don't. just i just don't like I want to see what he can, I want to see what he does in college. I think he'll take a cow i would like to see him take a college team that is not like ah Alabama or anything like that and make them a respected team in college football. North Carolina is not really a football. I mean, they're known for basketball. They've had some good football teams. Don't get me wrong. But it even, and even in recent years, they've had decent football tears. They've had bowl games, but yeah not a reputable ball game. Does, does a Belichick factor make North Carolina
01:01:27
Speaker
in a couple seasons, a playoff contender in college football. i If it does, it will simply be do be due to commitments for the name. Because, I mean, i mean don't forget, North Carolina, I believe is ACC. They are ACC. So they are in Clemson, Syracuse, FSU.
01:01:54
Speaker
SMU's over there. up yeah They have those schools over there. Duke, Louisville, Georgia Tech, Boston College. I mean, i mean that you've got it. There are some good schools over there. Florida State, fucking Florida State. Except for Florida State. They are not a good school.
01:02:13
Speaker
Talk about the biggest busted in 2024. What the fuck, dude? What the fuck, Norval? Like you literally went from, we deserve to be in the playoffs. We deserve to be in the playoffs too. Bro, what happened to your team? What are you doing?
01:02:34
Speaker
ah Yeah, so let's ah let's let's let's get it done let's get let's get into a little bit of today. What's what's happening today? We got the conference championships, AFC, NFC. I will say last last week was not a good week.

Playoff Picks and Key Plays

01:02:52
Speaker
For anybody. Derek, you were two and two on your picks. You had your lone wolf with the Eagles and you had the Chiefs beating the Texans.
01:03:01
Speaker
Uh, Rick, you were one in three. You had your lone wolf with the bills last week. Uh, and, uh, uh, I was Oh, and four on my pick. Oh, you didn't even get one. Right. I ate absolute dog shit, which puts us in the playoffs with a, I am a, I am four and six overall playoff picks. Uh, Derek is six and four and Rick is five and five.
01:03:30
Speaker
Rick is, uh, I'm a Cleveland Browns of the playoffs right now. not a good year However, lone wolf status. Uh, I am one in one and you guys are both going to know lone wolf statuses. So last week I ate absolute dog shit. Uh, and I will say this, man, speaking of the games last week, we we talked about the Texans chiefs game last Sunday. We talked about the lions commanders game last Sunday.
01:03:59
Speaker
ah But I will say I think the I think the Eagles benefited from shitty weather against the Rams Because um the Rams could not play in that snow given to Eagles don't normally play in that snow either. So that was Yeah,
01:04:23
Speaker
Barkley has played and I mean and in all honesty I They benefited from the snow in the weather, but they still got lucky because the Rams were not out of that game by no means. Man, they started clicking in the fourth quarter and I was like, oh, funny enough, Cooper Cup is currently on game day morning right now. Yeah. So, uh, I think that they definitely, uh, benefited due to the weather. Um, but they, they, they they pulled it out, man. The Eagles, uh,
01:04:58
Speaker
I think had it been had it not been a snow factor, I think i think the Rams would have definitely gone out there and had their way with the Eagles, because I mean they still put up a hell of a fight. And then, man.
01:05:13
Speaker
The unthinkable happened. Something does not never happen. does not never have I don't know if that's proper English. Nice double negative right there, bud. Hopefully there's no teachers in the chat. yeah I'm going to get crucified for just annihilating the English. egg and do it words at heart just yeah Words are hard. Hashtag words are hard, ladies and gentlemen. Man, and in a million years, I would have put a million dollars on Mark Andrews.
01:05:43
Speaker
to show the data The bills put a hundred thousand to his charity afterwards yeah literally lost the game Basically, yeah, no he didn't because it would have only tied at that point it would not first time oh The first time that he fumbled the ball Working their way down the field, you know i'm saying I mean there was a lot in that game there was there was two two key plays that, that I think turned that game around and they all, and they both fell on Mark Andrews. He had to drop pass for the two point conversion to tie the game, which he never drops passes. That's, that's the more safety net, man. He's been the more safety net.
01:06:30
Speaker
Yeah. And then he fumbled the ball, man. Like, I'm not saying Buffalo was going to lose the game, but holy shit. I mean, those are games. Those are game-changing plays right there that you don't see. Those are not mistakes that Mark Andrew makes. mark and mark andrews makes And it was just like, holy smokes. what the hell and At the end of the day, at the end of the day, you cannot solely blame Mark Andrews for that loss. There was a lot of things. There was a lot of things for the Ravens that didn't click.
01:07:00
Speaker
Okay. How about the bills kept Derek Henry under a hundred yards. And in the first game, he went for almost 200 yards. yeah So that right there was a huge, huge deciding factor in that game was containing King Henry.
01:07:17
Speaker
No, yeah no i'm i'm talking so I'm talking specifically and people like andrew yeah and you leave me specific game changing moments and that fumble and that drop pass are are game changers. not saying like said I'm not saying that.
01:07:34
Speaker
Baltimore would have won or or anything like that. I think it was a good game. I think we got exactly what we expected from that game, from those two teams. But those were the two plays that were going to keep them in the game. And that's why when he crumbled that ball, it was like, Oh my God. And then not that I wanted them to win, but I'm just saying, if you're going, you know what I mean? Anytime I'm watching games like this in the playoffs, I'm going for both teams.
01:07:59
Speaker
You know what I mean? I just want to see good football and I want to see people can't, you know what I mean? Good things happening. And yeah, as soon as it happened that first time, and then when he dropped the ah ball in the end zone, that' the first thing I texted my homeboys, all people,
01:08:16
Speaker
into the like of all people, you know what I'm saying? Andrews would be less's weird, but what it it should have never boiled down to that. the Ravens should have had themselves in a position. And this is, this goes the same for every team out there. If your game comes down to one or two plays going differently, you were barely in that game to begin with. The fact that they had three turnovers, that's unacceptable. You're hard to win a game when you're turning the ball over to the other team on a regular basis, you know, turnovers changes the entire dynamic of a game.
01:08:54
Speaker
But to have those three turnovers and still be in the game and only lose by two points at the end of the day, I mean, again- Yeah, that's what I was gonna say. That's the whole point is you are still in the game. And at the end of the day, those things already happened. And now we're at the end, we need you to make plays. And Mark Andrews is a go to guy. Yeah.
01:09:19
Speaker
I mean, he's been Lamar's safety net for for years. And that's why, and that's why Andrews is, is when when you talk top tight ends in the league, that's why Andrews is right up there because he has been that safety net for Lamar Jackson for so long. and and And in all honesty, he was kind of quiet this season. And I think that boils down to the fact that Lamar was playing much better football. Wasn't he hurt for a little while too though? And Derek Henry being there.
01:09:48
Speaker
Yeah, I think, I think he got, I think he missed a couple of weeks, maybe if that, yeah, Derek Henry was there, but Lamar was playing better football. He was, he was passing more, I think, you know, than he normally, he wasn't running as much as he normally does. Yeah. And that's where he would get into a lot of trouble. And Mark Andrews was always there to bail him out. Cause Lamar would start running around in the backfield, doing his little dance, he dance and teams would close in on him and load who was right there, you know, to make a play for him.
01:10:17
Speaker
was Mark Andrews. So it was a good game nonetheless. I wish the bracket would have worked out to where the AFC championship game that we were seeing were Buffalo and Baltimore as opposed to. That would have been pretty good. As opposed to Buffalo, Kansas City again. Yeah. However, with that said, I am glad that Buffalo is in the AFC championship against Kansas City because they truly need to get this fucking monkey off their back against Kansas City in the playoffs.
01:10:45
Speaker
We can beat them. We can beat them 20 years in a row in regular season. But if we lose to them 20 years in a row in the playoffs, we're still stuck with that fucking monkey on our back. Yeah. And that's where we kind of are is Josh's. I think he's busy seven and oh, against him in regular season, but Owen Owen for against him in the playoffs. I think I saw some sort of stat like that. Let's ah seven and six and one. Maybe I'm not sure.
01:11:16
Speaker
but like you look at this and on paper, if you take the refs completely out of the equation and that's a big if, when it comes to Kansas city. So Josh Allen is four and one for four and one against the Kansas city chiefs in regular season and regular season in the playoffs, they need this monkey off their back, you know, it's, and we've beat them at home and an arrowhead.
01:11:46
Speaker
Like we've beat them at both places in regular season. So it's not like we can't go into Arrowhead and win a game. By the way, the state of Kansas City or the state of Missouri has enforced if you now have to produce a Kansas City driver's license to buy a folding table this weekend and kids in Kansas and Missouri because the bills mafia came into town so heavy to buy tables.

Kansas City and Buffalo Bills Traditions

01:12:09
Speaker
Nice. So but but if you take the refs out of the equation,
01:12:15
Speaker
hands down, Buffalo should dominate this game on paper through the season, looking at every game this season, Buffalo is by far a better team than the three, three win Kansas city chiefs.
01:12:28
Speaker
You know, Buffalo has, I think Kansas cities had, what was it? What was the step that I saw two games where they scored more than 30 points and Buffalo only had three games where they didn't score at least 30 points. o So, you know, you look at the regular season and even into the playoffs right now and look at the teams, Buffalo hands down is a better team than the Kansas city chiefs going into this game without a doubt.
01:12:54
Speaker
one And they should roll into Arrowhead and and should annihilate the Chiefs and if they blow the if they blow them clean out like 42 to 7 in the fourth quarter. I hope Josh doesn't come out and sit that fucking game I hope he stays out there and just keeps his foot on their throat and rubs it the fuck into Kansas City because nobody ever does You're forgetting one thing
01:13:23
Speaker
the refs. That's if you take the refs out of the equation. Yeah, I mean, and then and that's and that's honestly, you know, that's what you have to do because you you know when they played in the regular season. Uh yeah, well Buffalo jumped out to a 16 point lead early. And and then the Chiefs came back. To get within two.
01:13:53
Speaker
And then they went up by 14 and then they were, you know, Kansas was able to, you know, bring it within, within nine points, but you got it. That's what, that's, that's what teams have to do. They have to jump on Kansas fast and early. And, and then they have to, uh, stay on top. That's what Baltimore did against them. Oh, I'm sorry. no and Just stay away from Patrick Mahomes.
01:14:20
Speaker
Yeah. Stay away from him. 100%. Don't even breathe in his direction. Because, and we, and we dropped this stat last, ah you know, a couple of times about their records. And obviously they had everybody benched when Denver just came out and embarrassed them 38 to nothing, but they had everybody benched. Um, but that's what Buffalo, I'm trying to figure something out here. I'm i'm intrigued to know.
01:14:49
Speaker
Who was the official for the Bills Chiefs game earlier this season? Yeah. I know we've got Cleat Blakeman today.

Fair Officiating in Kansas City Games

01:15:04
Speaker
But who was the official earlier?
01:15:13
Speaker
um
01:15:16
Speaker
oh No. But, um, the biggest game of the week is I just want to see his fair a football game. And I understand the refs make mistakes. I'm not looking for him to be perfect. I just don't want no bullshit going on with the Patrick Mahoney situation.
01:15:37
Speaker
And then I think after this season with all this going on, I think that they need to address the rules about if you want to protect a quarterback, well, then the quarterback needs to quit running the damn ball. Yep. as you said they're gonna They're adding the quarterback slide to the instant replay review next year.
01:15:57
Speaker
Well, I you know, just this is kind of a smart ass thing to say, but I also I truly believe this and I've said it for a couple years now. We're not too far away from quarterbacks with either being two hand touch or flags flag football where you can't even tackle a quarterback at the end of the day. um Yeah, I gotta quit that. You know, just I don't like it either because i I don't see it happening, you know what I mean? With a any running quarterbacks personally, except for Patrick Mahomes. Nope. after i off Jared had a blatant miss roughing to pass her call. Blatant.
01:16:38
Speaker
Yeah, well, not only that, I just say what annoys me is, you know, too, is this not even this season. This is like the previous two seasons as well as my home's running around and he's running. And then you already don't want to get a flag, but you got to tackle him. And then he does one of these like he'll.
01:16:56
Speaker
And he leans over this way and runs again. You know what I mean? It's like, dude, you can't do that. You can't pretend that you're giving up and then keep running the ball. That's like me pretending to do a fair catch and then going, Oh, no, just kidding. And then taking off.
01:17:13
Speaker
Well that, or he does that stupid shit where he starts to like slide or whatever, but then he passes, he does that weird sideways pass defenders come up off of him. No, know I'm sorry. I agree with you a hundred percent, man. Would you, once you, once you start running the ball, you're, you're, a you're a runner. If you get fucking smoked, you get fucking smoke, bro.
01:17:33
Speaker
The line of scrimmage, especially past the line of scrimmage, like ah behind the line of scrimmage, I can understand a little bit, you know what I mean? But especially once you're past it, like, come on, man. So earlier this season, the officiating crew for the first Buffalo, Kansas City game in air and and Buffalo this year was Tom Steven, Paul King, Brad Freeman, Jabir Walker, Land Clark, Dominique Pender, and Jeff Hutchins.
01:18:00
Speaker
So we'll see how this cleat Blakeman thing goes for Buffalo in this game. And then I got an idea. They want to protect the QB. All right, as soon as he pretends like he's going down, they should blow the whistle.
01:18:18
Speaker
You know what I mean? So he can't be faking nobody out, running around, getting extra yards, throwing a note. As soon as you go, like you're giving yourself up, there is no throwing the ball. There is no nothing else. Whistle blown. That's the end of the play. You gave up balls down right there. You know, cause it's just, I don't know, man, it's just a little, it just seems a little cheap to me, a little cheapskate ways, you know what I mean? To be getting around the rules of the game. So here's some, here's some fun stats on today's game.
01:18:48
Speaker
Buffalo is 10 and 0 at home, and Kansas City is 9 and home. 9 and 0 at home. They're both undefeated at home this season. But Blakeman's games, the lowest home team winning percentage in 2024 at 31.3% with a 5 and 11 record. Blakeman called penalties at a higher rate against the home team at 53.2%.
01:19:18
Speaker
Is he in the game today? He is the official, the head official for the game. He is the most experienced referee team in the NFL for for postseason with 16 postseason calls. And this this game's in Kansas? It's in Kansas City, yep. So Cleed Blakeman will lead the crew for the conference title game between the Bills and Kansas City. The league announced Sunday Arrowhead. He's considered one of the top officials in the NFL.
01:19:45
Speaker
His assignment comes a week after officials were criticized for controversial penalties that aided Kansas City's 2314 division around victory over the Texans.
01:19:57
Speaker
And of course Mahomes said on Wednesday, he doesn't believe the chiefs received favorable calls from the referees. But what quarterback that calls are going his way is going to say, yeah, mean official fucked up. That shouldn't have gone against them. It should have been not right. but but think He'll complain though about calls. Mahomes is six and five in games officiated by Blakeman by Blakeman.
01:20:20
Speaker
It's his second worst record among 20 referees who officiated his games. The five losses under Blakeman's crew account for 21.7% of mom's 23 career losses. I mean, you think these other refs, man, are sneaking around and gambling? No doubt in my mind, no doubt in my fucking mind, sending their brothers, their brother-in-laws with different last name to go and do it for him. Yeah. Right.

Betting Trust and Referee Scandals

01:20:48
Speaker
Yeah. and They're like, look, trust me. You trust me. You can bet this parlay. I got. Yes. Yep. I'll make sure you did it's no different than the mob doing it way back in the day. Yeah. Yeah. I think you think what do you think Vegas is? Vegas is a modern day racketeering mafia for money. That's all they are. Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if, you know, five, 10 years on the river, whatever.
01:21:13
Speaker
Yeah. You know, whatever the biggest mafia in country is the government. I mean, yeah. Hands up. Don't shoot. We're not paying more taxes now. Yeah. ah No, I wouldn't be surprised if five, 10 years down the road, there's a quote unquote investigation that finds out that, you know, referees were betting on games and whatnot.
01:21:34
Speaker
Yep. Uh, but, but I mean, at that point in time, what do you do? You can't go back and change the record books. I was going to take away the super bowl wins. Yeah. Yeah. You know, exactly. Those flags got to come down. like so here's Here's a fun fact. Cleat Blakeman was a college football quarterback for the university of Nebraska behind Steve Taylor, who was selected by the Colts in 89.
01:22:02
Speaker
He also had an eight year career in the Canadian Football League. So you're putting up, you're putting a whole lot of hope into Blakeman. He's the also when he's not an official when he's not an official. Guess what his job is.
01:22:19
Speaker
judge. Nope. He's a personal injury attorney now an advantage and partner at Carlson and Blakeman LLP.

Game Commentators and Referee Influence

01:22:31
Speaker
He's been practicing law for 30 years. He's an ambulance chaser. Basically, basically those are Rick's over here. and He's like,
01:22:46
Speaker
I'm not even putting any faith or hope into my team. I'm actually putting all my faith and hope into this one referee. Well, listen, it and the way, but but you have to, when you're playing against Kansas city, it's sad to say, but you literally have to against Kansas city. And it's neat that our local newspaper back in Rochester, New York, the Democrat and Chronicle wrote up this whole fucking, like they got the whole backstory on the referee, the umpire, the down judge, and where they played college, what they do. Like it's, it's fucking crazy.
01:23:16
Speaker
It's what some of these guys did. It's crazy. Who's commentating the game? but Oh, God, please don't be Collins worth. Yeah, you know we we we talk about the cheats. I mean, the Chiefs. But it's crazy when you look up when you when you when you Google, you know, Kansas City, whether however you want to phrase it, one of the top stories that still comes up, one of the first top stories that still come up was was back when they had the, the divisional matchup between Cleveland and Kansas city, that helmet to helmet that costs Cleveland the game. Oh, I'm not mad. We got fucking Jim Nance and Tony Romo calling the game today. so tony romo Was audibly best about the call last week against kids and city. So I am not mad about this one. At least it's not Chris suck. Patrick Mahomes, Dick Collins worth like legit. That makes me super happy.
01:24:13
Speaker
I know it' you yeah but but he he does stay on on his balls. Pretty. Oh my God. Yeah. But I'll take, I will take Nancy and Tony Romo and to make it better. If he wasn't contracted under prime, they should have brought Fitz magic up there too. Oh yeah. with that that would Honestly, I think so. This is my thing. You give somebody

NFL Commentary Improvements

01:24:35
Speaker
like Jim Nance.
01:24:36
Speaker
the ability to, or or Joe Buck, as much as I can't say in Joe Buck, give them the ability to be the the main announcer, right? And then get you a panel. of two quarterbacks from AFC and NFC and two receivers to be your, ah your secondary commentators that are recently played like, like putting Romo and fits magic up there or Brady and Fitzpatrick up there, you know, to announce with Jim Nance, I think that would be really cool and highly educational for the average, not in depth NFL watcher.
01:25:11
Speaker
And then they should have a chat going. They should have a chat box going where people are like, you know what I mean? Saying stuff so they could. Ask it a question that they don't understand. Like what's the difference between encroachment offsides, false start neutral zone infraction. Yeah, and they can count. Commercial breaks about certain things like that. I mean, you you break that down. You break down a neutral zone infraction encroachment and offsides and most people can't tell you what the difference between the three of them is.
01:25:40
Speaker
because they're so, it's such a small margin of difference between those three calls. Like to me, encroachment and neutral zone infraction are the same fucking thing. It's just a different a different way of calling it. I was gonna say, isn't one an offensive penalty and the other one a defensive penalty? Correct. Neutral zone infraction is an offensive penalty. Encroachment is a defensive. Encroachment is basically the defense's false start. So,
01:26:09
Speaker
I'm sorry. Every time I think about that, I I go back to that one Pittsburgh game a few years back where he was lined up clean across the line. No, they they do they threw the they threw the flag and the ref comes out and he's like false start on the entire offensive line except the center. It was it was against Pittsburgh and at the entire line except for the center jumped and the center is like the **** is going on. And he was trying to keep a straight face, but he was like, false start entire offensive line, except center.

Upcoming Game Predictions

01:26:44
Speaker
but So, so we've talked a lot about the chiefs and the bills today. And I think because of the historic rivalry right now in the last five years in the NFL, it's really overshadowing.
01:26:57
Speaker
of the Eagles commanders game today, which should be a really good game. yeah Before we jump to that real quick, i Rick, um I'm assuming you're picking bills. Yeah, obviously. It's our year, baby. Who you got in this one, Derek? I'm going bills. All right. and And you know what? We're going bills across the board. I can't pay it out.
01:27:24
Speaker
I, I, I, I was reading for the bills last week and I was like, I'm going to put my voodoo and juju to yourself. glad i' go I'm going to put my, I'm going to put my voodoo hex on the, on the Ravens. And I did, and I put my, my voodoo and my juju and all that away today. And we're going bills against Casey. I think it was a pretty easy pick. Um, I know last week,
01:27:51
Speaker
damn you derek oh he said he said i don't know i think the commanders could I'm going to go ahead and tell you right now just to jump it off and we can go ahead and just continue talking about it. I'm going commanders. Nice. You know, I'm going to go with Derek on this one. I think the commanders have the ability to beat the Eagles today.
01:28:21
Speaker
Um, and I think that you're looking at a Buffalo Washington Super Bowl. Um, I know last week on the show, and and I know Rick, you agreed with me. Uh, um, I said, I'm calling it right now. The Cinderella story that is Jaden Daniels in the Washington Redskins ends in Philly this Sunday, but I'm taking back what I said. Uh, I think after watching Philly almost.
01:28:48
Speaker
taken L against the Rams in in prime weather for Philadelphia in the snow and everything else. I think that I'm jumping on the bandwagon with you guys and i'm I'm going commanders in this game. I think the commanders and I think Derek, you said it last week.
01:29:04
Speaker
They are sneakily good, man. They are, i they, they are legit football squad in Washington. Um, I think, I think we spent all season thinking like, okay, when, when are they going to run into the team? That's just going to expose them. You know what I mean? Like, it was like, all right. They won this one. Oh, they won this one. And then they get into the playoffs.
01:29:30
Speaker
You know, but I mean, given I get it too. Cause you know, the lions, their defense was beat up. You know, they had a lot of injuries. So, but it's football and that's how it goes. And Jaden Daniels, man. What can I say? I wish he was a Tennessee Titan.
01:29:48
Speaker
yeah You're not a fan of, uh, now I will say. I will say in the regular season, the commanders and Eagles split. They were one in one. Uh, Billy took the first game 26 to 18. And at the end of the season, uh, Washington took the, took the game 36 33. So they've already played two good games against each other. They both want a game against each other. So, I mean, Washington has proven that they can beat Philly.
01:30:25
Speaker
Uh, so I think this is, this is going to be one of those in their division rivals, their NFC West rivals. Uh, West. Is it West or is it East? No, it's East. It's East. It's East. No, it's like, when did Billy move over to the West Coast? it's it's It's yeah. East. I know. Because Dallas always throws me off that they're in the, in the NFC, in the NFC East. Like, how did that, like, how did that happen? Why are they not in the NFC South?
01:30:55
Speaker
Yeah. I mean, you could, you could move Carolina to the NFC East and leave and put Dallas in the NFC South. That would make more sense. Yeah. so the farest north team in the east yeah that would That would make a lot more sense. Um, but yeah, I don't know why I said West, but yeah, Dallas, that Dallas thing always starts me off, but, uh, you know, so they do play each other twice a year, every year.
01:31:22
Speaker
They know each other. There's there's that that that division divisional rivalry. I think this could think this could be one hell of a matchup. And I think the commanders,
01:31:36
Speaker
man, they still, they you know, scary Terry, that guy, I don't think he ages. I think he's like in Tampa, but yeah, like like Mike Evans down in Tampa, he doesn't age.
01:31:48
Speaker
he He plays. He's on that TV 12. Right. I mean, Terry's in his sixth season. In the NFL, ah you wouldn't you wouldn't think it. I mean, he's still playing top tier ball at the end of the day. And not only that, but I mean, they've also got. um ah ah Sorry. Yeah, that's it. They've got to. um Brian Robinson Jr and he's been an absolute stud this season at running back.
01:32:25
Speaker
ah and And then they got Zach Hertz and we are all familiar with Zach Hertz from Philly. He was a stud in Philly. He's been doing pretty well this season and in and Washington.

Commanders and Eagles Matchup

01:32:45
Speaker
um He's not like a superstar or anything like that. He's just one of those guys that kind of step up when you need him to make a play. So I mean, Washington has all the components and damn Jaden Daniels, man. We were on him early in the season. I know Rick and I were on him early in the season. Can't get it out.
01:33:09
Speaker
ah No, this should slide. Yeah, thank you.
01:33:16
Speaker
And he was um he was an impressive rookie, man. You don't see this too often on a rookie quarterback's guy that can carry a team all the way into the all the way into a divisional championship game. Yep. So on the flip side of the coin, you have the Barkley effect.
01:33:37
Speaker
so Which is just in the rap doing whatever he wants to whoever he wants whenever he wants this season. So. Yeah, it'll I think they're pretty equally matched up overall. You know what I mean? Like as teams as a whole, you know, maybe not player by player, but teams as a whole. I think it should be a really good matchup. But I think the commanders are going to pull it off. I think I hope so. Well, it's ah it's a nice 40 degrees.
01:34:17
Speaker
in Philadelphia currently. No snow in sight. It's a brisk 33 in Kansas. That's pretty warm for winter. Right? It's a brisk 33 in Arrowhead today. So it's not looking like there's going to be a weather factor in either one of the games, but I think I think we know what we're going to get out of the Buffalo, Kansas game. As we said, I mean, that's become kind of a bit of a rivalry over the last five years between those guys. but i think we I don't think we know what we're going to get out of the Washington Billy game today. who Who's going to show up?
01:35:05
Speaker
um I'm gonna say the commanders are gonna show up and matter of fact, they're gonna steamroll the Eagles auto house steve I'm I'm gonna go Jaden Daniels and scary Terry Are going to they're taking the Eagles down by 14 today. Yeah Going in on um I Say yeah Brian Robinson jr.
01:35:35
Speaker
six tos and the case connected shift And the commanders win by 35.
01:35:47
Speaker
No, no, I think I think it'll be a good day. I think it'll be a close game. I'll give it a I'll give it a by seven that the commanders win by a Teddy. And it'll be one of those One of those just like breakout plays, whether it's whether it's BRJ or scary Terry and Jaden hook up on a big play. I think it's going to look like it could be within a touchdown like a one score game and then at the end it'll they'll win. But you know what I mean? Like they'll score again and seal the deal and be at least up by two scores. Lock it in so so. Eagles by 10 says Wally.
01:36:30
Speaker
It must be drinking early today. you know so So we're predicting, we're predicting a, oh shit, that's not what I wanted to do. um This is what I wanted to do. um We're predicting a a Bill's Commander's Super Bowl. That's the hope. I think that would be amazing too. I wouldn't be mad at that Super Bowl.
01:36:54
Speaker
I think it would be great the story of Jayden McDaniels and the commanders coming back as a team, you know, rebuilding how they have been, you know, what and and that's a great story. And then I think everybody's over this chief's bullshit with the refs. So the bills to get past that plus for the bills themselves, you know what I mean, to get past that all, you know, all of that combined. I think that makes, you know, the Super Bowl that,
01:37:22
Speaker
most people would want, unless you're an Eagles or a Chiefs fan. Right. Um, with our, and obviously we can, obviously we can readdress it, uh, next, next week. Um, you know, once, once we do have the Superbowl locked in, but say this is the Superbowl, say we are right. And the commanders go on and beat the Eagles. and And again, the Eagles are having a phenomenal year, but I think if you take Barkley out of the equation, the Eagles don't have the year they had. The Eagles are the Chiefs.
01:37:52
Speaker
They're not, they're barely a 500 team. Yeah. Yeah. Um, cause they said it earlier, Barkley can literally break out at any given point in time and score touchdown on a run. Barkley, say one Barkley is your next. And I say next because I don't really know how long before old King Henry is going to end up retiring because he's just getting beat up for a while. But say one Barkley is your next Derek Henry in the NFL.
01:38:19
Speaker
Yeah. Except for Barkley can catch like a wide receiver. Yeah. Yeah. Barkley can catch. So that, you know, that's, that's what I'm saying. You see you take, you take the Barkley equation out. Cause you know, just a Barkley's played in all 16 games this week, this season, he's rushed 345 times, which is a hundred more times than he rushed last season with the giants. Mind you.
01:38:42
Speaker
Last season with the giants, he only had nine 62. So what is this year? This year he had realizing improperly is what that tells me. So yeah. So he, he ran 345 times for 2005 yards. He was average a yards of game, one 25.3, uh, average yards, a carry 5.8. He had 13 tuddies.
01:39:07
Speaker
two fumbles, one for a loss. He's receiving 16 games, 33 receptions, 278 yards, 17.4 a a catch, a receiver, or a look a catch. He had two tuddies, one for 43, and he had one fumble as a receiver. So I mean, he's accountable for 15 touchdowns this season.

Saquon Barkley's Impact on Eagles

01:39:33
Speaker
And a team that's been winning games by seven to 10 points on average. um You know, they don't have a high point average per game. The Eagles don't know. No, no no they they're there. I think that's what it'll take for the Eagles to win today. Like, Barkley's got to have a monster game, not just a good game. I think if Barkley has a monster game, they can pull off the win. If he has just a regular good game,
01:40:04
Speaker
I think the command if he has a regular good game, A.J. Brown needs to have a spectacular game. Yeah, one of the Eagles to win. It has to be quiet. And he's been very quiet all season long. He is the guy they've talked about very much. The commanders, the commanders have only had three.
01:40:22
Speaker
one two three I'm sorry, four games, five games of 30 plus points.
01:40:35
Speaker
i mean And most games have, what's that? Five games at 30 plus? Yeah. How many is the Eagles had though? That's, that's Billy. Oh, Philly's only had five games. Washington has had one, two, three, four, five, six, seven. They've had seven games of 30 plus points.
01:41:06
Speaker
But they're also, ah they're also not really crush it. I mean, they had a few games like they, ah ah ah ah sorry, they're at the chief's game right now. Broadcasting with Steve Smith senior, all teams and there is two mafia guys stuff themselves right in the fucking middle of the camera shot surrounded by ketchup and mustard in their fucking blue. Nice. It's so funny. That's great.
01:41:40
Speaker
But um yeah, you you take the Barkley equation out of Philly and and and and and they aren't as good as they were. I wouldn't say that they're as bad as I say Kansas is if you take the ref factors out. I think i think you take the Barkley equation out of it. They might be just below 500, maybe a 500 team. I agree. You take the refs out of the equation. I still stand by what I said. Kansas wins three games this season. Yep.
01:42:10
Speaker
Five at max, five at max. Yeah.
01:42:15
Speaker
um Washington, I think they proven themselves time and time again, that they, that they are there. They're an all around squad. You know, you're, you're probably your biggest name on that team coming into this season was scary. Terry. Cause you didn't know what you were going to get out of Jaden. You can't always, can't always base off what a guy does in college to, to,
01:42:40
Speaker
Do the same in the NFL. I mean, we could name. I could, I can give you two from the Cleveland Browns, uh, Tim couch Heisman trophy winner. And that jerk off Johnny Manziel, which I never liked. They were great in college and then in the Ohio state quarterback outside of CJ shroud, they've come in, they've been good in college football and then they come into the NFL and their ass. So.
01:43:05
Speaker
You know, that doesn't always, that doesn't always carry over from college to to to pro, uh, with the quarterback, but Jayden, man, he slid right in and he's playing top tier quarterback in the NFL. The numbers don't lie. And I think Jay Daniels is, I think he's one of the, in, in two seasons and then at two years from now, mark my words, two years from now, Jane Daniels will be one of the top paid quarterbacks in the NFL and he will be working his way to fill the shoes of the Lamar Jackson's, the Josh Allen's, the Patrick Mahomes, because

Rookie Quarterbacks in the NFL

01:43:43
Speaker
he is what? Six, seven, six, at least six years behind Allen, you know, and, and those guys, so he will be your next generation of quarterback that is dominating in the NFL. I think the kid has the talent. If he stays healthy, he's done a really good job of avoid and getting his ass fucking pounded into the ground. But that's just it. He has to stay healthy.
01:44:06
Speaker
k i mean that that's ah That's a key factor for any player. you that means that That means that his GM and his head coach have to put an offensive line in front of him that is going to protect him. He cannot be taking the blindside hits that he doesn't see coming. He cannot be trying to run through.
01:44:27
Speaker
holes that were never actually there and getting leveled by your, your max Crosby's, your Von Miller's, your Matt Milano's. He can't be getting hit by guys like that. It's he will not have a sustainable career taking those hits. If he does like he's done so far, he's done a very good job at protecting the ball and protecting his body and not forcing a play. That's not there.
01:44:53
Speaker
for a rookie to play and and have the mentality and the, the, the intelligence in the NFL to not force the plays. The prime example, look at nothing, nothing against you, Derek, but look at Will Lewis. Look at Kayla Williams. I'm offended. Look at Mac Jones. look at Look at Daniel. Look at, look at the guys who tried to force plays that were never there to begin with and look at the turnover rate of those rookie quarterbacks when they were rookies.
01:45:21
Speaker
by forcing something that was there. Look at josha Josh, Josh Allen, prime example. it's It's a mental thing, man. You know what I'm saying? Because they're trying to be the hero. They know the team is looking for the hero. That's why they're playing at such a young age. And that's not because they years behind the veteran that's because the teams have left themselves in a position where when you come in, you have to come in as a hero immediately. You can't come in as a developmental quarterback.
01:45:46
Speaker
They don't, right and so yeah don't work that's kind a disconnect that's where the disconnect is between college and pro college is still your developmental stage. When you draft out of college, you are not pro ready. You need a season or two to develop under a coach and quarterback. And as much as we talk trash, because it's the refs, but my homes is a talented QB. I hate to rest, so but he sat for a year.
01:46:11
Speaker
behind a let was it was it smith was that there was that their court of alex smith yeah yeah yeah a year behind Smith. He only came in cause Smith got that leg fucked up. Yeah. Yeah. so he yeah smith is it Smith was, it didn't they go to the Superbowl with him? i was go when they went deep and deep in the playoffs So, you know, and look at the, you know, look at the other quarterbacks in the NFL that that got the chance to sit behind the Sam Darnold prime example, Sam Darnold.
01:46:44
Speaker
Came in with the Rams years ago when the Rams are still in St. Louis. That was where he drafted to, I believe, was the Rams in St. Louis. Got his ass fucking just devastated routinely. Then he got sent away any and he sat.
01:46:59
Speaker
And he sat behind some good quarterbacks and he sat underneath some good coaching. And then he went to Minnesota this year where he had the experience. He had the time to develop and learn. He had weapons per se. And I use that gender you know with air quotes because Justin Jefferson and Addison are not there.
01:47:20
Speaker
Odell Beckham Juniors on Minnesota. They're there when they make that big play. It's something talked about, but to be reliable, they don't have a reliable receiver that's going to be there every time you need to throw the ball. So that was where Sam Darnell kind of got the raw end of the deal in Minnesota.
01:47:34
Speaker
you know And unlike Jared Goff, who's in Detroit, who had those reliable receivers and those reliable running backs. So you take these rookies and you throw them right in out of college where they're still at the end of their developmental phase, and they don't get that chance to grow underneath somebody. you know That's where you end up with, like you said, they'll expect it to be the hero right off the bat, and they're not ready for that.
01:47:57
Speaker
And I think it gives them the time to acclimate to the speed change of the game. and You know what I mean? Absolutely. Like just walk them into it. Instead, you just throw them out there. but Throw them right through the walls. You know, it works. Sometimes it works. Some guys need that. You know what I mean? Some guys need to be thrown. They need that thrive under pressure situation. But not everybody and most of them, even those guys would probably could have been better. Would have preferred to be used into it. You know what I mean?
01:48:23
Speaker
I think if you, if you look at the numbers of quarterbacks that were thrown into it and succeeded versus quarterbacks that were thrown into it and fell on their face, the ones that succeeded is far less, far less. I mean, you can look at this year alone. Look at this year alone. Jayden Daniels thrown into it succeeded. Caleb Williams fell on his face. You can just look at the past years with all the number one draft picks that have been QBs. Where are they at? Yep.
01:48:51
Speaker
you know what I mean? That just shows it right there because all of them have been thrown out there and they're gone. They're like, no, it wasn't Joe burrow. Wasn't Joe burrow, the most sacked quarterback in the NFL, his rookie season. He was the, he's been the most set quarterback in the NFL. Like what what he's been in the league, what five years now, four years, like his worst three seasons. He was the most sack quarterback.

Quarterbacks and Legendary Receivers

01:49:13
Speaker
He's a guy whose career is going to get cut short because he gets his ass just beat down game after game after yeah game. But a lot of that goes to his intelligence level of not knowing when to get rid of the ball to putting himself in a position where he's going to get hit. and And I've said this about Joey B since he got drafted by Cincinnati. He's never going to, he's, yeah you can't deny his talent. You cannot deny how talented Joey B is.
01:49:39
Speaker
But he's not gonna win big in Cincinnati. You could put that man you could put that man on Cleveland's team. And I bet you he takes Cleveland to- He had all the weapons in the world two years ago and he still couldn't win it. Yeah. You know, he had every day in Cincinnati. I know Cinco was still there. I ain't gonna lie, that would have been nice to watch Burrow throwing to him, you know? Yeah.
01:50:02
Speaker
Well, you did a lot of young quarterbacks that I would have loved to see like throw to the players like Terrell Owens. Yeah. Terrell Owens, Randall L, you know, just just, you know, Randy Moss, you know, players in their prime. Can you imagine some of these young bucks like like Josh Allen throw into to some of these freaking old school wide, Michael Irvin Jerry Rice shit like that. Oh, my God. Sanders. Yeah.
01:50:31
Speaker
I don't know. Deon Sanders, though, he was on defense with me. He played. Yeah, he was a quarterback, wasn't he? Oh, see, he was. and And I'm listening to a nice conspiracy theory on game day this morning. Oh, geez. They're calling it the Jim Kelly curse. I i said it since Joe Burroughs got drafted. I mean, the poor kid, he's got all the fucking talent in the world. um But Cincinnati is not doing anything to help him.
01:51:01
Speaker
They're not and and he needs, you know, hopefully he, while he still has enough in the tank, he goes somewhere else.
01:51:13
Speaker
Rogers in the tank. Rogers in the tank, says Wally Rogers in the tank.
01:51:24
Speaker
That's an SCC idiot for you. Oh, you're got, you're not claiming them. Like all the Ohio state fans too. They try to claim Joe burrow as their quarterback. leon Did play wide receiver in Dallas. Yeah. So Wally said he played both ways. Yeah. you can
01:51:41
Speaker
Um,
01:51:46
Speaker
kick got her answer she just several a beautiful explanation What an interesting statistical curse. They call it the Jim Kelly curse and Jalen Hertz is trying to break it. No quarterback has lost their Super Bowl debut and returned to his Super Bowl again since 1993.

Jim Kelly Curse Speculation

01:52:07
Speaker
And he's going down the list of all these quarterbacks, including Drew Bledsoe, Rex Grossman, Jake Delome, you know, all these guys just going down this long list for the last hour, many years. It's never, it's never happened. And they, they call, I don't know why he calls it the Jim Kelly curse, but that's what he, that's what he's doing. And it's kind of a neat, Jim, Jim, Jim Kelly, Jim Kelly.
01:52:38
Speaker
Did you just see that commercial they was doing? but ah I'm on NFL. What was the game show? They just was doing the game show thing where like the the contestants were the different teams. and Yeah, they had some good stuff on there. I'm sorry, it was too funny, man. It was something going on with the Chiefs and they even said it on a little commercial. They said, oh they actually called a flag on the Chiefs.
01:53:07
Speaker
but so Nice. like dan He's Kyle Brand is one of the big Josh Allen advocates in the NFL, sportscasters, and I like him a lot. I like the energy he brings to the fucking TV. I like the way he the way he he went in there with the with the with the zip up on and he's like to quote the late Thanos sa about Josh Allen. He took his sweatshirt off. He's like, I'll do it myself. I like how random represents his arguments and stuff. He wanted to say that that argument about the Jim Kelly curse. Nice.
01:53:39
Speaker
That game, the next first game starts at three, right? Yeah. Three o'clock. Yes. Hold on a second. Uh, commanders Eagles at three o'clock on box. Okay. Bill's chiefs at six 30 on CBS.
01:53:56
Speaker
Oh, I'm going to get them. I'm going to have to get up out of here shortly too. I got, I got somewhere. I got to be. yeah go Oh, he's going to put his lawyer suit on. He's going to go do something fancy on a Sunday. It must be a big case. It's something it's it's huge today. now What time did you say the game was it 3 or 3.30? 3 and 6.30.
01:54:25
Speaker
yeah who sorry ah but mor games at six thirty The three o'clock game is good space filler yeah iin't even gone live man. You want to know what I'm going to be doing at three 30 taking a nap. Now I'm going to be at the movies watching a movie. I'm going to the movie theater. and you're going to see milwaana r on I'm not even going to be watching the first game. I just really want walk to watch the game. If I'm being honest, you're going to see Moana too. Aren't you? No sonic three.
01:54:55
Speaker
Oh, why are you going to the movies? It's already available on Prime Video. Watch it at home. Well, the movie theater we go to is AMC. I don't care. Movies are terrible. Yeah, I'm telling you, the AMC is awesome. Oh, I am awesome. I went to the AMC and it's just dude, it's awesome. It looks great. Sounds great. We have a place. Like I said, lean all the way back. Like you're just laying down lounging in a theater needed or cool.
01:55:25
Speaker
We have a place like that here called dinner and a movie and you can order dinner and drinks and they'll bring it to you during the movie and everything. It's ridiculously expensive. they there's I think, I think, I think it's AMC. Uh, we have AMC here in town and I mean, it's not, I mean, that you can get, you can you get alcohol and, and whatnot there. And we got the reclining seats as well, but there's a movie theater up in Easton and dude, you go in there.
01:55:54
Speaker
And they got like the normal, you know, the normal movie treats your popcorns and candies and nachos and stuff, but then they have a bar off to the side where you can order your drinks, but then you can order an actual meal. Yeah. Um, and dude, their seats are.
01:56:11
Speaker
Stupid company. They actually have couches in their theater. I don't like movie theaters. Anyway, I i do every once in a while. I enjoy going to the theater and see it just for the experience. You know, you got the big screen, you got the sound, you know, you get to get the the movie treats, you know, now I mean, I got a big screen at home, but it's not like I have a movie

Movie Watching Preferences

01:56:30
Speaker
projection. The last movie I saw in theaters was Maverick. And I think the last movie we seen was Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. You know, yeah, we wouldn't watch Beetlejuice. I just got certain fuck off the wall like to watch it. I'd rather chill at home and watch a movie. Obviously we were going to rent it on prime and just watch it on prime. But I just certain movies, especially like little action movies, things like that. I enjoy being there. Just kick back in the, you know what I mean? on yeah lounge Yeah. Sometimes it's about the movie theater experience, you know? Yeah.
01:57:07
Speaker
Yeah, I get that. I'm with you on that, man. I mean, yeah, I know it's a little bit overpriced. It's it's it's it's a lot. It's a lot of overpriced. Let's be honest. So football games like that. Well, right. I was just thinking that. Oh, they call him Barkley's wife as white as the driven snow.
01:57:28
Speaker
I didn't realize that until he just walked up to her. wife She is white as a driven snow. She got red hair, bro. She definitely white. Yeah, yeah like like she don't go on the sun white.
01:57:41
Speaker
She's white. That's fantastic. I didn't realize that until he walked up to her. That's hilarious. oh Yeah, but football in the theater, that would be dope. So you did something like that in Buffalo years ago when the Sabres made a playoff run.
01:57:58
Speaker
Um, I don't know. You probably, you don't watch a lot of hockey, but they had a playoff run that went all the way to the Stanley cup against Dallas. And it was what we call the no goal goal. The side of the net got lifted and the puck slid under the side and they called it a goal. So and we lost the stand. We lost the Stanley cup on that, but this was before instant replay and all that crap. So when they did that, they did what was called the party in the Plaza.
01:58:20
Speaker
and they put a movie theater screen in the courtyard of the, so of the arena for the Sabers because they were selling out everything. Dude, you'd have 3000 people standing in this fucking courtyard and the dead ass, a winner watching the Sabers play hockey on a fucking, well, I think it was a 20 by 20 screen, 24 by 20 foot screen.
01:58:43
Speaker
And they were brought and they had the speakers on the outside of the arena broadcasting the announcing of the game. And we were out there just standing there drinking and carrying on like idiots in the freezing fucking cold. And it was free. Yeah. No, i got I will say that about. I will say that. Yeah. Right in. You know what I mean? Yeah, I will say that about the NHL, man. A lot of teams do that. Tell us the arena. Nashville, man.
01:59:13
Speaker
Yeah, Tampa does it, they they open up the arena, they put it on all the jumbotrons, and then they do the thing outside. Columbus a couple years back when they were in the playoffs, when we yeah we suck at Tampa. When the Blue Jackets swept the the lightning in the first round um of the of the playoffs, they were doing they had the big screen set up right outside a nationwide arena.
01:59:43
Speaker
and And Nationwide Arena is really cool because it's set up to go party. I mean, there's bars and restaurants all around the arena. I mean, like it's set up to party. But they they would they had the big watch parties outside. And they would have DJs coming in. And Tampa does the same thing. They get DJs that come in. And they're playing music. And they've got you know drinks and food and and everything else, man. NHL does it right. I think the NHL has that unlocked with there but their block parties that they do for playoff watch games.
02:00:13
Speaker
And I know a lot of teams open up the arena and and like Tampa they they you can buy tickets to come into the arena And they weren't like they weren't like stupid expense like regular season like regular game ticket Yeah, and you could and you could watch the games on the jumbotron inside lightning

NHL Fan Engagement

02:00:30
Speaker
arena. So Shout out to the NHL for doing or I wish the NFL would do something like that. But again, I Who wants to go stand out in the freezing cold in Philadelphia and for a block party or in Kansas City in the freezing cold? I mean, people are paying to go inside the stadium, but if I don't have to. If I'm not going to the game and sitting inside the stadium, well, probably more likely don't want to be standing out in the freezing cold when I can just as easily go to a B dubs or, or a bar and sitting. Yeah, man. A movie theater, movie theater, football.
02:01:05
Speaker
What up, Jedi? Making Sunday's great again, baby. That's what we do. That's what we do here at the Nonsense Eagle Network. My executive order.

We've had some good people come up and pop in lazy Jedi is fantastic. Chaka's great when they come up. Um, but then you get nights like last night where.

Podcast Format and Discussions

02:03:03
Speaker
Wild Bill Hillbilly and Stephanie come up and start calling people like me names and trying to call me fat without calling me fat by calling me Luke Combs. Listen, I wish I was that motherfucker with his money and his hot wife. But um another fraud podcast. Yeah, you could just sing like him, bro. You know, you gave hope to every fat guy out there. OK, so and they they come up and start talking shit. And it's just kind of funny if I could sing or rap.
02:03:33
Speaker
Yeah, I'll do that. But I've got issues in general with it. If I could if I could sing or rap like my guest can on Glick's House of Music, I wouldn't be doing this shit. You're right. All are doing. I'd be doing what y'all are doing. You'd be waving that money like Derek did at the beginning of the show, just waving them fucking on those out. Yeah. I'll be singing by yourself. I don't know if that was a lawyer settlement or if that was the music we paid like that. I figured it out yet. But does it matter?
02:04:01
Speaker
Yeah. No. Yeah. No, man. I'll be singing my ass off out here. Uh oh. We got Howie is saying Phil's commanders. Gronk is saying Philly, Casey, Jimmie Johnson.
02:04:17
Speaker
I don't even think Terry knows where he is. Let's be honest. Yeah. i'm i dude hey listen a couple He was almost um talking, so I wasn't saying nothing, but I had the same thought. I was about to go. And he's giving me the Biden kind of feel. I almost put I almost put Terry on my death list. I'm not going to lie. I retired know we're going to miss him, but come on. I do love me some Terry Bradshaw, man. The original TV.
02:04:45
Speaker
There are two sports announcers that almost made it on my celebrity death list. And the only reason I didn't is because I'll be sad if either of them passes. One of them was Terry Bradshaw. The other one and is Lee Corso. Oh, I don't think the man's ever going to die. He is looking well, you know, when he'll die, he'll die when he can't do game day anymore.
02:05:09
Speaker
Just like Joe Blau died when he couldn't coach football anymore. That's when Lee Corso will die. Dude, they could give him one show a year and he's going to stay alive.

02:06:42
Speaker
But he was wearing his damn Michigan tennis shoes the week before, the week after the game, and talking shit on Ohio State. I'm like, go, this is an NFL show, and you're talking shit on Ohio State. He's like, my show, my rules, motherfuckers.
02:07:02
Speaker
But, a oh, man. ah
02:07:09
Speaker
I'm getting white why you get closer as you get closer to game time. My brain is fucking doing 700 things about the bills game. And I'm like, you got to win this fucking game, man. hash hashtag Hashtag. Hashtag. Quiet down, Stephanie. Quiet down, Stephanie. Shut up. You drunken Jeff Goldblum. Fuck. Yeah. Oh, because I eat something before I go. You know, I was going to say, let's let's go ahead and wrap this. Wrap this little show. up Yeah, I got to watch Tom Brady announce this Eagles game.
02:07:40
Speaker
right? He's a handsome man. they dude did deny As much as I hated him when he played for New England, he is doing a bang up fucking job announcing like so I love it because he fucking knows he's one one season removed from the NFL. He fucking knows Well, that needs a bit of a goofball. He is. He's a you dude watching him play. I always thought he was the driest son of a bitch. like Him and Giselle only had sex missionary style. He was two pumps. And then he was like, okay, ma'am, I'm done. And he fell over it that kind of a guy. No, yeah he's not. He is fucking hysterical. And he's always smiling and he's always in a good mood. He's always on his game. Unlike Troy Aikman, who's drunk half the time and Collins worth. He can't get off homes and dick.
02:08:28
Speaker
and Well, yeah, well there's that but you also not only is eight men drunk half the time But you look like it's about to explode like his eyes are bugging right the fuck out of his face He's like he's like he did some ladies do a by Z commercial. He's getting done with What's his name ah Ben? What's his face?
02:08:47
Speaker
Ben Stein, whatever, and be like, only you need some bi-zine, bro. Only missionary fans. Well, there's a reason why we called Aitman back in the day, Captain Concussion. You talk about somebody who's got head trauma. yeah You know, you know, Aitman's got some issues upstairs.

Ben Roethlisberger's Playing Style

02:09:04
Speaker
I mean, lights are on, but nine times out of 10, nobody's home.
02:09:07
Speaker
the True story. That's why he drinks. It's like watching Bernie Kozar drunk ass calling, you know, when he's in Cleveland before the game post pregame and post show and then he's up in the booth during the game. It's like Bernie. I thought you could drink it, man. But it's not the drinking no more. It's that it's just this fucking head. Yeah, it's just I think you'll see Ben Roethlisberger like that pretty soon.
02:09:30
Speaker
Ben Roethlisberger has been like that his whole life. What are you talking about? You're right. You're right. yeah Again, as I was saying last night, kissed by an angel on the forehead. That's what my grandma used to call special needs kids. Yeah. He was kissed by something. ah hot but ah helmets couple of football Years of being kissed by guys on the forehead. Ben Roethlisberger was such a big oaf man. Like every time he would start to run the ball, I'm like,
02:09:56
Speaker
You can't, like he was just a big bumbling buffoon. He was so goddamn big and strong that somebody could roll in a refrigerator down a fucking hill and trying to stop it. Yeah. look It was funny to see him. I was going to say it was funny to see him like be like that, but still like stumble out of stuff and throw the ball. yeahp Yeah.
02:10:14
Speaker
How are you that big and they're wrapped around your ankles and you managed to maintain your balance to get out of it? Like that's mind boggling. And 100 100 percent but i'm pulling off Lamar Jackson stunts, but like looking like somebody who was flipping in the kitchen. You know what I mean? Look like the fucking big show from wrestling trying to act like Lamar Jackson. Oh, yeah, right. He was wild.
02:10:42
Speaker

Speaker
We'll start. kind our new so I think I think the new time will work out better. I know, Derek, you go to church and stuff on Sundays and you're kind of rushing on at noon. And, uh, you know, it'll give me the chance to get the kids up on a Sunday and get them fed after a late night when you're drunk as on Saturday.
02:11:26
Speaker
First. Listen, it's not me. Yeah, okay. It means six pounds of potatoes after the show ends. Get the fuck out of here. There's been a few Sundays where I've got that text in the morning from you.
02:11:39
Speaker
but Oh, yeah. You look like you look how I feel right now. for Yeah. Well, it's always your fault, though. No, you know what? is It's my fucking kids.

And they're just playing their hearts out on video games. Oh, you have free will. Derek, you influenced my children.
02:12:08

You have free will and we're eight hours or six hours away from each other however far away we are. I can't force you to drink buddy. It's it's not like I'm sitting there besides you with a funnel pouring them down your gullet.

Speaker
You would be if you could be. and jeff is Jeff has made that very clear. he's very he's He's very thankful that he's in Cancun and I'm in Ohio because he knew he knows that if we were to do this show together, he would be a raging alcoholic because he would not be not be able to do a show in my presence and not drink.

And, uh, also that Rick, you got anything before we roll bounce? Everybody take one second and say a prayer to the football gods that the officials do not fuck Buffalo out of this win.
02:14:58
Speaker
because the city needs it at this point, they might burn that bunker down. same The bills mafia in Arrowhead may burden the stadium down if a bad call decides that game, because we are about sick and fucking tired of losing to the Chiefs and the playoffs on bad calls. 100%. I agree. I just want to see a fair football game at the end of the day. I think in a fair football game, the bills come out on top, to be honest with you. I would agree. but That's all I got. Go Bills. Um, this is our year. I'm hoping if they win today, I have to go to my storage unit because I have to get my table. I have to get my table. I've had it for fucking years. I've had that table as the great Bubba Ray Dudley says in wrestling, give him on the tables. I've had that table for 15 years.
02:15:58
Speaker
And that'll is that'll be live on unnecessary roughness when Rick goes through a burning table. We'll have to make it a Sunday when my kids are here so they can set that bitch on fire for me and make sure they can call 911 if I can't get up. I have to take my watch off too so it doesn't go off for a follow.
02:16:19
Speaker
Not only is Rick going through a burning table, going to make for great content for the, for the show and the network, but if he can't get up and he's rolling around on the ground in a burning table, that's going to make for even better content. You, you will have to make it your mission to hype the show for a level of viewership that you've never seen before when I go through that table. So you're going through the table. If they make a Superbowl or if they win the Superbowl, if they win the Superbowl, I will go through a flaming table.
02:16:49
Speaker
Okay. Oh yeah. We'll hype the hell out of that. We'll hype, we'll, we'll hype train. Like you'll have to, you'll have to create like Facebook video posts and it's the posts and and TikTok posts to hype that up. So you can do it live. Yeah, I'm going to do it live on the show. and So ah yeah, I gotta be there. ah yeah If the bills win the super bowl.
02:17:10
Speaker
I will go through a flaming table to celebrate for something I'm going to do. Who do you think is going to win? Philly or Washington? We'll all do something. Oh, no. We got we got a celebrity picker in the building today. He came back to look and see who our picks were. It's probably going to be Philly, but I want the commanders. All right. Are you picking Philly or the commanders?
02:17:38
Speaker
i um eagles Oh, he's picking the you gotta you gotta howl. It's a lone wolf. It's it's it's gonna probably win who you got for bills Kansas City. So, so decide if I like your son or not. my pick I have the commander. Oh, cash is not lone wolf, but he's changing his mind. Oh, okay. So, he's on board across the board with us, right? Yep. He's with us. Uh and he said bills. Good. Smart kid. I don't I don't have to drive all the way to ohio All right, Mahalo, y'all. Later, Derek. Have a good weekend, buddy. Yep, I'll see y'all. Now I don't have to drive all the way to Ohio and power bomb cash through a table. very
02:18:20
Speaker
i think he's ah I think he's been a Bill's. He's been rooting for the Bill's the whole the whole playoffs. So I mean, we yeah obviously I have too. um But yeah, I think he's been going Bill's throughout the playoffs. so um All right. With that being said, thank you guys for listening.

Like I will, I will see, and see, you've got a couple right there. So yeah, we got oh yeah I've got this one that, uh, I found at the beginning of the season that I thought was pretty cool. Yeah.
