Baseball Season and Team Analysis

00:12:40
Speaker
Talk a little N.M.M. Major League Baseball. That's also Omar's bag, so to speak. But, Canteen has been coming in with fletch, pinch-hitting for baseball whenever Omar's not around. We'll see out for the MLB.
00:12:52
Speaker
All right, man. So we're kind of in the bring of the baseball season, man. We're closing in. We're about mid-August. We're about mid-August, man. August is halfway through August. And then we're going to roll right into September, man. And before you know it, it'll be playoff time.
00:13:08
Speaker
Uh, pennant and division type time. But right now, when you look at the American league, he's right now. Um, it's kind of Nick and Nick because the ah Orioles are 70 and 49. We look at the ah Yankees, Aaron judge and the Yankees and company. The Yankees are 70 and 50 there. There are half a game behind. So, you know, I don't want.
00:13:26
Speaker
Jake to put on his classes or sunglasses or cut his lights on or whatever. But his Yankees are superb. You only have a game behind Red Sox or 62 and Rays are 59 and 59 or 10 and a half games behind. And then we have the Blue Jays, which are 15 games behind. When we look at the American League Central, man, the Guardians,
00:13:46
Speaker
are at 70 and 49, but the twins are three and a half games behind at 66 and 52. Royals at five games behind. The Tigers at 14 games behind. And then when we look at Clubber D's Chicago White Sox, they are poor, pitiful, pissy, and pathetic. At 29 and 91, they are 41 and a half games behind. 41 and a half games behind. I don't know what the professor gonna say about that, but what move forward?
00:14:16
Speaker
Um, I just said it for PC and pathetic. I mean, what is when we see i think you you missed this part. Oh, Mark, you missed, you missed the, uh, MVP Lebron James. lu at theater
00:14:31
Speaker
Oh, hey, put that in the Louvre, baby. Hang it up in the Louvre. That's the that's the co and and it' a beautiful piece of piece of art that's doing great. Hold on, can't you say that again about the Yankees real quick? What were they? As I said, the Yankees are ah half a game behind. They're 70 and 50. The Orioles at 70 and 49. The Yankees are on the brink.
00:14:55
Speaker
of making a huge come up. I'll just leave it at that. It is very scary, guys. When we look at the American League. They're in first place, right? In the The Orioles are in first place. Yeah. I know. Are they really? They're half a game ahead.
00:15:12
Speaker
I warned you, and I'm not worried about the Orioles. There's only one team I worry about that's the Guardians. The Yankees have nothing to worry about. I feel this is their year. I feel it's 09 all over again. Juan Soto, my boy ah ah Aaron Judge, it reminds me of when A-Rod and Derek Jeter pulled that 2009 ship. It's the same thing. History repeats itself, guys. I can't wait. And then when we look at the American League West,
00:15:38
Speaker
And so that's six three and fifty five the manners are half a game behind those guys and then ah the Rangers are eight and a half games and then we have the Angels eleven and a half games and then we have to add the Oakland ace at 13 and half The the National League kind of still looks the same. I mean the the Phillies are having a It's kind of a field day there at 69 and 49, but the Braves are only seven games behind. Omar's Mets are eight eight games behind, so I think the Mets can make a solid come up. I i even think the Braves and the Mets will be neck and neck. When we look at the National League East, um the Nationals are kind of way out of it that trip at almost 16 games, and then the Marlins are like almost 30 games behind everybody. so
00:16:22
Speaker
We don't have to worry about them, but I think that either the Mets and either the Braves will um ah make a run. The Brewers are 67 and 51. Cardinals are seven and a half games behind them. Cubs, Reds, and then the ah Pirates round out the division at 711 games.
00:16:40
Speaker
Now, here's here's here's here's where things get kind of squeaky, guys. When we look at the National League West, National League West is where the rubber meets the road because you got a 70 and 49 Dodgers team there at the top. But then you got the Diamondbacks and Padres are both tied up. They're both 3 1,5 games with 67 wins and 53 losses. They're tied up. ah The Giants are 10 games behind, and then I don't think the Rockets are going to catch up. They're almost at like 30 games behind, but 27.
00:17:07
Speaker
So, I mean, there's a lot of good baseball left. I'll let Omar chime in and give it a spin. Fasten, give it a spin on everything. But as we move into the brink of the season, I think the National League East may be shaking up just a little bit. I'm not going to say the Phillies have won it, but the Braves are kind of in that place, that sweet spot. But I think, and I'm just being honest with the Braves, with all their injuries and all the things that have happened with the Atlanta Braves, I think the Mets can round out and possibly jump in as a wild card and probably make a run.
00:17:35
Speaker
in the playoff is just head of the braves head of your braves be honest man just be honest that's just my take so mar the sports professor give us your baseball Canteen talked it up. He talked it up for you. Now you just got to hit it out of the park. Well, I mean, first of all, I got to say what an amazing job in by my brother, Canteen. Man, the man, man can out here dropping the knowledge playoffs ahead of with the records. I appreciate that. the Braves ahead of Helping me with the hard leg your Braves. Just be honest. Just be honest. That's just my take. That's what I got. work that Yale men's work. So thank you, sir. Let's go through everything you said. Right. Let's start with the New York teams.
00:18:15
Speaker
yeah um yeah first yeah first first of all the Mets I would love to agree with you I do not the Mets just got swept by the Rockies one of the worst teams in the league and before that they lost two out of three to the Mariners so the Mets are actually on the down slide a little bit while your braves are actually held holding pretty steady. So I see the opposite there. I see the Braves taking the wildcard, the Mets falling out. But there are some other things that you mentioned that are very important to point out. You mentioned the A.L. West, where you have Houston and the Seattle Mariners. cry the mariners our set are the sorry The Mariners are six and four, the Astros are seven and three in their last 10. So they're both on the upward swing. Now let's move over to the AL East. The Guardians are still hanging in fine. But when you talked about the Yankees, ah first of all, let's give the big news of the day. Jazz Chisholm has come out, they say he has a UCL sprain, which in all pictures usually means a Tommy John surgery.
00:19:18
Speaker
not don't dare it doesn't It doesn't mean that for hitters. So he probably will be gone. He probably will be gone, at least ah for the rest of the regular season, and four to six weeks. It could be gone the rest of the year, depending on how they want to play things, how his elbow reacts.
00:19:37
Speaker
of The Dodgers, the Dodgers are on the come up. You really want to look at a a division that is on the come up, look no further than the NL West, where you have the Dodgers are seven and three, the Diamondbacks eight and two, the Padres eight and two, and the Giants are six and four in their last 10. All four of those teams are above 500. So definitely keep your eye out for the NL West.
00:20:23
Speaker
That's pretty much all the big news right now for the standings. I saw that as Canteen was going through the kind of the you know the standings.
00:20:34
Speaker
ah Who do you think Arizona or San Diego have a better chance of surpassing the Dodgers at this point? Or is it just going to be a toss-up? Or is there one of those teams you see having a know kind of better end of the season than surpassing the Dodgers? One of those two teams.
00:20:50
Speaker
The better built team, the better um you know constructed team ready For the playoffs, I believe in my eyes is Arizona.
00:21:02
Speaker
um i oh that amazing Yes, I believe they continue like last year where they made a nice playoff run. I believe they'll capture one of the wildcard spots and make another run like they did last year. That being said, obviously you cannot count out the San Diego Padres. General Manager A.J. Prater there has always gone for at a trade deadline and this year was no different. He made moves that were to shore up the team to make them better as well. So, you know, we'll see. They're both right there. Both teams are neck and neck. So, really, it's whatever you prefer. But I prefer the construction of the Diamondbacks. Although, Blake Snell from the Padres, through his first no-hitter last week, and, and you know, could, if he if he comes around back into Cy Young for him, because he was the Cy Young last year, if he can get back to that,
00:21:55
Speaker
I mean the Padres can be dangerous with Tatis and Machado and all them out there. Right. Okay. One more question then and I'll let Jake chime in. But I was looking at the standings again as Canteen was going through his numbers. And Baltimore Yankees are kind of neck and neck. And Yankees kind have kind of been the favorite you know all year. ah kind of It's been looking like a possible you know Phillies versus Yankees. But do you see maybe? Because you said last year Baltimore was kind of ahead of schedule.
00:22:27
Speaker
are they kind of like starting to come into form now this year or are they still slightly ahead of schedule because last year they kind of they kind of flattened out at the end of the year and kind of didn't pan out but are they coming into form now it is this the time for the Orioles to really shine that is a That is an awesome question, Flo. First of all, I want to commend you have a strong long-term memory like I do. So um I'm very surprised you remembered that I said that, but I did say that. Yeah, you did. Yeah. oh yeah You said they were here. I remember you. They are. everyone try I tried to listen to the professor because he's... I like it. I like it, man. That's awesome. I'm surprised you remembered that, but I did say that. And I still do think they are a little early. I think they're a very, very young team.
00:23:08
Speaker
um Obviously they traded for Corbin Burns in the offseason to take that next step. Right. They got Adley Rushman. He's probably the best catcher in the league. um You know right now ah you know they've got a lot of good young potential players holiday. You know all the players Jackson holiday all the players they have out there that they are good prospects that have come up. um ah And so I think they really do have a good chance to dethrone the Yankees. But okay if we're looking at star power, if we're looking at overall team, if we're looking at experience, the Yankees have all of that in spades. OK, so you think if the if they made it farther, that you know, they say they make it to the World Series or maybe at least to the yeah do the finals in the FAL, do you think
00:23:58
Speaker
they would be considered still ahead of schedule then, right? If they went that far. You know, at this point, they stay are expected to make the playoffs. Are they expected to win the championship? No. Or go to the World Series? Not yet. Okay. So they would be... it wouldn you united They would be happy with going to the World Series, of seare let's sayd say that. If they went to the World Series or even the conference series, right ah you know, they would be happy with that achievement. And I know your your buddy, is it windy?
00:24:27
Speaker
We be. We be. We be. We be the baseball. Yeah. Yeah. Jake's got me confused by calling him Wimby. Yeah. We be. We be. Yeah. He's he's probably excited.
00:24:39
Speaker
I mean, you got to be again, they've got a really, really good young squad. And I mean, I, I could even name all the players cause it would take me all day, you know, Gunnar Anderson. They traded for Zach Eplin. They got the picture Grayson Rodriguez. Like they've got a lot of, I mean, Cedric Mullins is a beast of a center fielder. So they they've got a lot of good young players. They rounded out the team with the trade deadline. So it's not like they're not going for it. I just think they would be satisfied if they made the conference or even the world series. I think omar So let me ask you this question, I know we're talking baseball. Right now, if you had to project two powerhouses coming out, one out of the National League, one out of the American League, who who would you forecast right now that could potentially go and go to the World Series and make some fillies, right? You said fillies, right? That's a great question. And let and let me tell y'all, the professor has updated his power rankings, and the Dodgers
00:25:35
Speaker
are now ahead of the Phillies in my NL power ranking. oh If you let the Dodgers get on a run like they are now, seven and three, and they're doing that without Mookie Betts. They're doing that without their pitcher Yamamoto. They got, they got Kershaw to come back for one game.
00:25:54
Speaker
and yeah're We're kind of up in the air on what's going to happen with him. And they're still winning. Why? Because they still have Shohei Ohtani. They still have Freddie Freeman. They still got other young good arms in the bullpen, in the chamber, in their starting rotation. I'm going with the Dodgers. If Clayton Kershaw can come back fully healthy, which I don't think will probably happen, it but if it could, and I hope he does, they will be amazing. so And and they and it coming out of that, ah You know, was it the NL West? Like you said, I mean, that's a tough race there. If they come out of that, you know... I mean, right, right, right. Head on top. That should show that they're ready for the, you know, to make a right. I mean, as you said, the American League East is really tight right now with the Orioles and Yankees in the end. When you look at the AO West, the Mariners only a half a game behind the Astros at this point. Yeah. Close race. You got anything, Jake?
00:26:53
Speaker
before we move on here. I'm just wondering why nobody's taking the feeling serious. He brought up Arizona. What's going on? Why are you feeling me? He asked me a question between two teams. He asked me. I can only pick one of the two. I think the Phillies are still good. I do. I think the Phillies are still good. Then you put the Dodgers ahead of them, I guess, in your power ranking. I do right now. That's fluid. That list is fluid, baby. That changes all the time. But right now, as of right now, today, the Dodgers barely ahead of the Phillies. Fairly. Slightly ahead. OK, that's fair. Slightly. That's where I was on my biggest complaint.
00:27:30
Speaker
No, I mean, no, no, Jake, they're a good team. Not only that, recently, the Dodgers have won a chip. I don't think the Phillies went, they lost, didn't they? They're still hungry. Yeah, they're still hungry. They're still hungry. When did they go? Two, three years ago? They're still hungry right now. You gotta get a line that's hungry. Wait, didn't they go last year? Yeah, but they lost. But they lost? Yeah.
00:27:57
Speaker
No, they didn't play your Texas Rangers last year, did they? I thought was a Diamondback. Oh, it was a Diamondback. It was a Diamondback. They lost to go to the World Series. They were supposed to, everybody's gonna- Philly's lost to Diamondbacks. That's what I thought. okay Okay, so I was right. Okay, all right. Yeah, you're right. But they went two, three years ago, didn't they? Yeah, they've gone there they've gone they've gone a couple they've gone to the like championship series three years in a row or something like that.
00:28:26
Speaker
sad i agree yeah you guys are kind of like smith the only kind of like the little tear for but a yangers family like i like it Okay. All right. Anything else but before Professor goes in and, you know, kind of swishes around in the mixed bag and get pulled something out. What do you, anything else for him, Professor? Or he gets in here as mixed
00:28:59
Speaker
No, that's funny. ah Part of my mixed bag that was brought in to earlier was the jazz chism injuries. I just want to make sure that um that you know, you can't pull out of the bag before it's time. Oh, Mark, come on. I know. I apologize. I should not have. But what we are looking at is I want to wrap up ah what happened at the Olympics. So that's going to be my mixed bag today. We did talk olympics earlier. but Hopefully, it's not. Oh, did you? What'd you already touch on? Oh, we touched on everything. We touched on, uh, Katie Ledecky becoming the, uh, the most decorated woman's Olympian. We talked about men's and women's basketball, the women winning eight consecutive gold medals, uh, with the women's gymnastics and the men also, uh, for the first time since 2008, winning the all around medal and Simone Biles becoming the second most decorated women's gymnastics. And they'll make history, 11 medals, seven goals. And I think that's what we, that's what we had.
00:29:59
Speaker
And then we showed LeBron getting dunked on. that That's about it. With friends. Does that cover all your mixed bag or you got you got something else in there? i got Did you talk about the Jordan Chiles gymnastics controversy? No, we didn't. We just mentioned Simone Biles. I appreciate you leaving something for me in the mixed bag. It flows mixed bag. Okay. It's taking on my content. Anyways, ah so Jordan Charles, she was on the, she is on the US gymnastics team. She, uh, meddled in bronze.
00:30:38
Speaker
on the vault behind Simone Biles who got silver and ah the Brazilian girl, I'm blanking on her name right now. I apologize. She came with gold. Actually, it was an amazing moment, right? Because it was the first time on the medal stand that there were three black gymnasts. So it was an amazing time. It was cool to speak. um How did this happen though? Because before she was put on the medal stand,
00:31:04
Speaker
Two Romanian girls were tied for bronze. So let the professor break down what happened to you in this controversy. The Romanian girl scored 13.7 while she scored 13.667,
00:31:21
Speaker
right? So she was two thirds behind the other girls. the U.S. filed a complaint that they took off a tenth of a point for difficulty that they should not have taken and she should have had a .767 instead.
00:31:39
Speaker
Now, the judges at the time gave her the bronze medal after awarding her that .1. They agreed with them. Right. cool So she gets on the medal stand, she gets the bronze,
00:31:52
Speaker
That's it, right? We think everything's over. Everybody's happy. We all go home, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Right. Everybody goes home. So then a few days later, the Romanian faction files an appeal that the US team filed the complaint four seconds too late. Oh, wow.
00:32:14
Speaker
Yeah. And so you're probably saying to yourself, like, well, why would that matter at all? Right. Why would, uh, well, it's like a shot mark, right? And if you throw up a shot after the shot clock, it's not done. Right. So in gymnastics, they actually have a period after the first three events, you are, you have up to four minutes to file an appeal.
00:32:33
Speaker
But in that last event, which this was, you only have one minute to appeal. And apparently the Romanians have them on have proof of them submitting it at one minute and four seconds. So four seconds too late. A four seconds. Wow.
00:32:51
Speaker
so the IOC c said yes this did happen Romania actually pushed for three bronzes for everybody but another federation did I guess the international gymnastics federation or something said they couldn't approve anything it was up to the IOC the IOC said they're not awarding free bronzes so now The appeal has been denied. Jordan Childs has apparently, and the U.S. is going to try to appeal again. But as of now, she is going to be stripped of her bronze medal. It will be back awarded to the two Romanian girls. I am hoping that either the International Gymnastics Federation or the IOC, one of them stands up like some damn non-corrupt organizations and gives free bronzes to all the damn ladies, man. This is ridiculous. Hey, listen to that you boy. Listen to that you boy.
00:33:39
Speaker
Wrong punches. I'm pissed about this. This is ridiculous. You're taking away the shine from three beautiful women that have worked their lives for this moment, and you took it away from them. You shattered the Romanian girl's dreams first by something that, you know, whether it is a good appeal or not, maybe you need to change that rule, right? Maybe give another minute or so, or maybe be on your P's and Q's and know whether a minute has been gone over, IOC, or whoever that is at the table.
00:34:07
Speaker
Y'all are, this is, this is ridiculous. Y'all are causing consternation to these ladies who do not deserve it. It's four seconds over, it's over. I mean, if that's the rule, you got to stick by the rules. So then make sure you know that there. Why are we waiting days later? You need to have that, somebody need to have that stopwatch at the time. Why are we waiting days later? Right. Okay. Jake, that's fair. I think Jake, take it away. I'm a little pissed, Jake. You had something, Jake?
00:34:37
Speaker
yeah no I just thought it was the dumbest thing I've ever seen. That was one of the worst mistakes I've seen in the Olympic history. Speaking a man of the dumbest things we've ever seen.
00:34:49
Speaker
Y'all see this next big bag item. Oh, no, I'm just saying you've seen this breakdance. Yes, that's what I was talking about it. I was like, that's not even funny. You didn't tell me that was breakdancing. I would never have known that was. Yo, first of all, I'm going to I'm going to have to tell everyone to stop this merging the great name of Professor Rachel Gunn. She actually has a master's and she teaches in Australia as a professor. So shout out to a fellow professor. She did her thing. Don't let anybody tell you that the dinosaur T-Rex move wasn't amazing because it was.
00:35:27
Speaker
oh oh my god it me with this regular baby get you a regular baby That's one of my favorites. That's one of my favorites. Look at T-Rex.
00:35:38
Speaker
you get him put i mean everybody's trolling this is yeah though dont know yeah i like what do you call it That's my girl. She got you out. Don't let anybody be a hater. All right. So the real story behind this, her name is Rachel Dunn. She is a professor. She's 36 years old. She knew she wasn't going to win. She said she was probably not going to point against these younger competitors who are quicker and can do more stuff than she can do. I thought that was going to be in your mixed bag for sure, professor. Yes. What is in my mixed bag? You keep taking my mixed bag items. Oh, I thought you were done.
00:36:09
Speaker
No, I wasn't I got two more stories. I got one more. No, we're done with make the bag Way gun right she ray gun. Yeah, and she just wanted to come out and try to be ah as artistic and and and creative and fun as well she you know march She gives me hope that I can maybe win in breakdown. There you go. That's it. He inspired many people around the world to think that they can make me a living, even though they probably never will. That being said, shout out to Marr, Wild Card Marr, who went absolutely off and demolished this poor lady last night on the late night owl. And by the way, that's a shameless plug to check me out tonight on the late night owl with Wild Card Marr. I'll do it. Wild Card Marr, a friend of the show.
00:36:55
Speaker
He has a city chief fan, by the way, too. I think you may want to hear his last story, though. I think you may. I think you may. Make it quick.
00:37:07
Speaker
yeah Did you know what the medal count was at the end? Did anybody know what the final medal count was? No, blow it up. 126 medals for the U.S., 40, they tied with China, 40 gold. Ooh, say that again, close. Say that again. What happened now? China and the U.S. tied for 40 gold each, but U.S. ran away with total medals, 126 medals, China with 91.
00:37:30
Speaker
Now, the US is always going to run away with their TotalMed account because we have so many more athletes than any other country. That's why most countries just look at the gold, which is why it hurts to lose that, or at least tie with China, because we don't have the world super power, right? Right, yeah. but Let me give you a little insight into this. There's one thing that have been avoided to make us win the gold medal count. And I don't want to crap on this guy anymore than if people already are, because they're crapping on it. Oh, Noah Lyles, I hear him. No, not Noah Lyles. Not Noah Lyles.
00:38:06
Speaker
it's not really, he the 200, he should have won the 200. And go back and watch the wildcard man last night, because he goes off when new allows as well. So he was mad last night, wildcard man. But what anyway, no, American High Jumper, Shelby McEwen, and again, I hate to pile on guy, I'm sorry, but I'm the professor, I report facts.
00:38:28
Speaker
American high jumper Shelby McEwen had a decision. It was on Saturday night. Him and New Zealand's Amish Kerr found themselves at a tie at the end of the high jump competition. Both men were able to clear 2.36 meters but could not clean two point three eight you may remember this happened back in tokyo back in twenty twenty when two high jumpers agreed to share gold meadows so they were both get gold medals right and not in the in the same event right in the same event, right? So they were just two gold medals awarded. This happened back in 2020. The competitors back then chose to take the gold. Here, the competitors chose not to take the gold and instead go for the glory of all for either one of them and the American loss in the jump off.
00:39:22
Speaker
to the New Zealander and ran a silver instead of a gold, which, if you would have taken the gold, would have allowed us to beat China in the overall. Oh, wow. Yeah. So last year, or the 2020, it was Varshim and Tambiri from Italy and Varshim from the car. They tied last wet, 2.37, and so actually shared the gold. Yep.
00:39:47
Speaker
ye yeah and so this year so they went for it and and the usa guy lost he just kind of lost it instead of taking the gold and having i but i got it i got it i got it i got a shout out Noah Lyles too he should he was the he was the favorite for the 200 so that's two that we that we should have won so both of those um guys wow was that apparently he came out before the 200 and was like hyping the crowd up and doing a bunch of like jumping jacks i don't i don't know if it's true i don't know if that was before 200 when but
00:40:20
Speaker
Right. If that's true, and then he went out and lost the race, he was wasting so much energy. Yeah, he up blown he did do that, though. He was jumping around, hyping up the crowd, for sure. Yeah, you can't do that. Not before racing. Yeah. do that Yeah, not before racing. That could have been part of it. He said he was sick, but who knows? All right, so that's it. A sports professor, Vic Bang.
00:40:43
Speaker
All right. All right. So let's get to some NFL. ah Professor went a little long on us, so we're going to go straight to the NFL here. break those are Breaking news, Flo. Breaking news. what's the You what you going to me want to throw out the breaking news? you know jj I think JJ McCarthy had to have surgery, man. like Season in seizing in see it isn't but season's an ending, they weren't sure yet until after they got into surgery. The last time I saw her was Season injury, man. Season injury. Yeah, I saw it as well right before. They said it could be season injury, but they wouldn't know until they actually got him in there and see how bad the tear was. A meniscus tear in the right knee. Right. So they weren't sure until they would get in there. So yeah, that's and that's definitely part of the news that we're talking about. ah We were going to actually just kind of talk about, you know, ah of course it's preseason, but you can still learn some things.
00:41:34
Speaker
You know, usually they let the rookies play, especially the quarterbacks that may be starting or have potential to start. Which QB rookie quarterback impressed the most, even though JJ McCarthy may be out for the season, but we don't know yet. oh who Who impressed you the most, Canteen, out of the rookies? I mean, we could just go with Caleb, but I mean, who else? Anybody who really impressed you? Man, I know what Nick's going to say, so no no no he's going to go last.
00:42:03
Speaker
I already know what Jake's going to say. I mean, who is Jake going to say? You know, he's going to say, Bo. I know who you saw. I know what y'all saw. I know what y'all saw. We know what he's going to say. So let's just go with somebody else because we know what he's going to say. All right. Go ahead. What do you think? Who impressed you the most as far as you could be?
00:42:21
Speaker
Oh, okay. Man. Yeah. that they got They all got a little bit of playing time. I mean, everybody got good. Drake May, JJ McCarthy, Bo Nicks. I think ah ja Jaden Daniels got some time. Of course, Caleb Williams got some time. So, I mean, kind of out of those kookabees who impressed you the most. it could be You can go with Caleb. That's fine. that doesn't man I'm just saying. um mean I mean, um i mean for for me, man, Caleb Williams probably had the, you know, with the best numbers and had the best reps and best looks and different things like that. Right.
00:42:50
Speaker
And then, I mean, if we look at some other guys, I'll be honest with you, man. Penix. Man, hey, Penix the lefty. Penix shocked me, man. Yo, please stop calling him Penix, OK? We're not doing this. We're not doing this, OK? You did that last football season. I'm not doing this all season long. So Omar, it's Penix. You know, you don't campaign like him.
00:43:16
Speaker
pronounced. I know. OK. I just don't want to hear. OK. Michael Penix. Michael Penix. Penix is great. OK. Penix also played. Yeah. He played really well against the Miami set, man. So I like him. I like Drake Nate. Caleb wins. But I mean, nobody really had a lot of reps and really, really did really, really good enough. I mean, Caleb was on the one hand.
00:43:46
Speaker
monicks had quite a few everybody else, they played their rookies and then they brought in like their dudes, man. Right. I mean, McCarthy played a little bit. I mean, there's a few that played Jake and Daniel's only the Giants brought in DeVito.
00:44:00
Speaker
i was a du go Yeah. I mean, but we're just talking about the rookies. What do you think? like i so I mean, when I look at the rookies like maybe once these's not one wins, but who would pressure the most like out of those drinks? We're not all naming all that's fair. What do you think Omar? I mean, I have to agree. with king Just based on the fact that the other ones didn't do anything.
00:44:26
Speaker
yeah I mean, none of the other one's really had much Michael Pinnix had one name really good throw that he's good off at. I mean, Bo next, yes, he showed that he can at least be competent, hopefully in a pro level offense.
00:44:45
Speaker
You know, Jaylen, Jayden Daniels used his legs to show his potential in that area. JJ McCarthy, before he got hurt, also showed that he has a little bit of an arm on him. But it doesn't matter because none of them were as good as Caleb Williams.
00:45:01
Speaker
caleb williams showed he has the if factor he shows that he can get rid of the ball he knows that a commanded offense he can play he's better than all the rest of the rookie orderback by far and Yeah. we have jail with wants to go with go i'm sorry i yeah no i was going to say and and i guess kind of quieting a few critics, because people were still unsure of him coming in. Even you, Omar, I kind of questioned it. I know i know for sure Jake is questioning Caleb Williams, ah what potential he had, that he could be ah a good starter. But he kind of showed a little bit that he's, he felt, he looked pretty comfortable out there, Omar. I mean, to be honest, he didn't look skittish at all. ah He looked fairly comfortable for a rookie quarterback. that I think that was pretty impressive, ah no matter, because there's a lot of pressure on him, you know, being drafted number one.
00:45:48
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, I think you're... I think you may be a little off. I think that was Jake, because I never questioned Caleb Williams. I actually think the Bears are probably going to be a playoff team, because I think that their offense is really good. Okay, we'll have to go check the tape. By the way, go ahead. Caleb Williams had a screen pass for 60 yards.
00:46:11
Speaker
He was 4 for 7 for 95 yards. We're running around like he did everything right. What are we talking about? Jay, Jay, Jay, it's still preseason, man. It's preseason. The way he looks at it. I don't know. It's about how you look. That same energy with Bo Nix and Bo Nix is your star. Bo Nix win 15 for anyone.
00:46:30
Speaker
He had 125 yards passing. He had one touchdown. Not only that, let me add this here. Every time he had the ball, he got a field board touchdown. This man is him. I'm calling it now. It's about to be scary season in Denver, Colorado. I'm so ready. Who you got week one? Who do you got week one? that seattle I All right. Doug. Doug. Let me tell you something. are you winning Are you winning the AFC West?
00:46:56
Speaker
hey look get there flo by the way flo we just have with unlike y'all we have to go against the defending champions. I know y'all get to go play Piddle paddle. We now know that Trey Lance is a starting the weight.
00:47:10
Speaker
Come on. The Dallas Cowboys had a tough schedule. So wait a minute, Jake. Yeah, they do. But here, let's let Jake go. So who was more impressive? Because we all agree, Caleb was. ah But are you saying? Bonus was the most impressive. He stepped in the gross. He stepped up. He made sure. Guys, I think too many of y'all were watching the Olympics this past weekend. You should have saw the future quarterback of the league right now. This is what happened.
00:47:39
Speaker
Hey, you know what? bri I wanted to hype up somebody else, Jake, on your own team, though. How about this? How about who? Not Bo Nix. How about Zach Wilson, baby? Traded to come in and take the number one spot. Forget Bo Nix. Hold on. Bo Nix already got it first. He gets first reps next week.
00:47:59
Speaker
We now know that Jared Stidham's done for. He threw a pick in the first quarter. So he's gone. This should have looked good. Maybe four for seven for 37 yards. So Jake here.
00:48:13
Speaker
Are you sure you want Bo Nicks? Why not let Jared Stidham start and let kind of Bo Nicks win? Absolutely not. Absolutely not. Because what a Bo Nicks player. This is pre-season, Jake. This is a hard-line season. One thing you can't hide from these players, Flo, is realness. They saw that player go out there and they knew he was already better than the other team quarterbacks on the depth chart.
00:48:34
Speaker
I'm telling you right now. All right. He's stepping in throws. He's doing what he does. here's it not No, no, no. OK. OK. So OK. So here we go. So you're all into the Bonex fix thing. Bono's best. Are you going to tell me right now that he's going to have a better season than CJ Stroud had last year as a rookie? No, sir. No, sir. No, sir. He's not in the same division. No, sir. yeah flow It doesn't matter. they both come on at yeah I'm not talking about record wise. I'm talking about.
00:49:03
Speaker
having the same type of year that CJ Brown had. the same type of year where he over, you know, he goes above what he's, and he maybe even makes the playoffs. You think that bonus can have that type of seed? I can say this, we are this year's, we are last year's Houston Texans, the Broncos teams. What? So we will overachieve, go look it up. We're supposed to only win five games this year. No, no, I tell you what, I tell you what. I told you we're doubling that. I tell you what, I tell you what, hold on, hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Let me get to this point though.
00:49:37
Speaker
No, we're do this next week man we're getting i i hold go deal with Hold on hold on let me say this cuz I'm kind talking about right up all these rookie QBs JJ McCarthy threw a pick. I already got hurt best availability is what got of no right but Best ability is availability not based availability Is he there? He's gone. We'll see you later. We don't know. We don't know yet. Bust out the window. Push. See you later. Wind is gone. What about Caleb? Next one. Caleb Williams. I have to see more from you, buddy. You can't throw a screen pass and make me wow. You have to do more than that. I want to see more from him, but not Bonnet.
00:50:24
Speaker
Bonix has already done what he had to do right now. He is the starter for good. I know that for us. You're saying Caleb may not be the starter? I'm saying Caleb will be the starter, but I hope I don't lie to you. I heard Omar just scream and say he's the best quarterback in this draft. I don't believe that. He is by far. I mean, doesn't not even have far but I think he'll be competing with Bonix for the best quarterback in this draft.
00:50:47
Speaker
Hold on. Okay. Hold on. Drake made. He underachieved. What's up Tony? He looks better than him. What was his, Joe Milbourn? What's his name? He looks better than him. Sorry, Drake, man. You're gone. Wush out the window. Certainly. Jaden Daniels looked OK. Here's the only thing that's going to hurt Jaden Daniels. I think Jaden Daniels is going to be better than both of us. He is. He is. Jaden Daniels is going to be better than both of us. No, stop that. Stop until he gets an offensive head coach. He won't do nothing. He's got an offensive coordinator that knows how to do an offensive head coach. He's got Kingsbury. He got Kingsbury. What are you talking about, Jaden?
00:51:24
Speaker
and I don't know about that. You got an offensive man in teams, baby. You got a defensive man. Cliff had, Cliff had Kyler Murray. You didn't do much after a while. What? That's cause that, that's cause Kyler didn't like. What? No. He didn't like his coach. Yeah. I mean, that was a problem.
00:51:41
Speaker
No, you couldn't get along with his coach. But anyway, despite what you might think of Kingsbury, hey, what's up, terrorists? Tyrus Mitchell, don't you know him? and I'm just calling. No, I'm just saying, I'm just saying, I'm just saying. Oh, this is looking like that.
00:51:58
Speaker
Okay. He's already showing. Okay, so like, man, flo i dont I don't want to go too deep into the NFL season yet. Yeah, we're not going too deep into the NFL. Next week, we're going to start. We do a... So let's make this choice. Are we doing NFC picks next week or AFC picks? What do you think? AFC. AFC next week? Let's go get AFC out of the way. That's fine with me. Jake, when did you start your new business? What do you mean? Look at this bump. Look at what he put. Bound up. Bound up. Blast off those bozos. What'd you bozo for, man?
00:52:28
Speaker
This guy is a hater. Look at his name. Look at his name, Flo. Look at his name. Get out of here. Horrible. who didn did that horrible tap Look below it. That bum right there. That bum right there.
00:52:45
Speaker
founder of blasphemous bozos who did that? did you do that to yourself? omar the sports idiot i didn't know you could do that either i didn't either i was trying to edit my own and then i found your blasphemous bozos i want to bring up breaking news also from being wrapped before you brought it up early about 30 that's hilarious that's hilarious
00:53:09
Speaker
Brandon Iyuk and the Steelers and the Niners have a trade in place that will send them there. Here's the issue. OK. Ian Rappaport recorded this just before you look it up. We believe you. The Niners have not agreed to it. OK. It's in play already for the Iyuk to accept it. Iyuk is fine with the acceptance. He just needs the Niners to agree. At the same time, the Niners are sending one more last chance contract to Brandon Iyuk.
00:53:38
Speaker
So it's a limbo whether Brad and I, you can assign with the Niners or finally the Niners are going to just give it up and say, yes, go ahead and go to the Steelers. So let's, let's assume he goes to the Steelers. Does this make them a legit? Absolutely not. i knew Did you see Justin Fields play?
00:53:55
Speaker
Because Russell sucks. We know that already. No, we don't. We don't know that. Come on, man. You were pretty good last year. He had a decent... He was like fifth in the... He was like fourth and fifth overall. I didn't know. Did him a chance. I love how quickly he jumped off of Russell Wilson.
00:54:17
Speaker
I know. but but but but this blow But when you got Russell Wilson, he was like, Super Bowl goals. Super Bowl goals. Super Bowl goals. I have to say that when they got Russell Wilson. I have to say my words carefully. I don't want to say anything derogatory.
00:54:33
Speaker
But Jake, you like to ride. You ride it. I don't want to say what I want to say. I know what you're saying. I know what you're saying. I'll say it. That's how you run, Jake. You was in my way. D-Rider. D-Rider. You a D-Rider. That's how you run, Jake. Guys, guys, guys. I can't see what y'all got. I'm honest with you. Canteen, I'm honest with you. I didn't keep a VG. I didn't say it. Yes, absolutely. I know. I know. Hold on. Think about this.
00:55:00
Speaker
Russ has not looked good, guys. I'm hearing that in practice, the Steelers want Justin Fields to start. He's injured. He's injured. How can he look good if he's injured? All I call what I've been told, the Steelers love seeing Justin Fields play a lot more. And boy, if you saw Justin Fields. I don't know. Boy, good luck. Well, even after this past week, Jake, they still had Russell Wilson, number one on the depth chart.
00:55:31
Speaker
that's fun they can have that's a mike tolin thing that's um know um so what i'm saying at a red quarterrter but if you would be as he was playing that well they may consider moving him so i don't know i don't know don't worry don't be a damn near mutiny in that damn locker room if something happens yeah I don't know. I just feel like ah last year Peyton Manning, he didn't really want Russ. So he didn't really give him a chance. I think manningel the league and well considering the coach didn't want him. So I think he played pretty well. So I think he comes back healthy. Let's see what happened. All right. So let's move on ah to the Eagles a report. The Eagles came out that hurts and Sirianni.
00:56:08
Speaker
uh relationship was fractured last year strained uh forget the exact quote that might just a paraphrase but it was fractured i think was used they were asked about it uh this past week and both of them kind of avoided uh the the the answer they didn't really say one way or the other so I don't know. I mean, they kind of collapsed towards the end of the year. You could tell something was going on. Santin, is this going to end up going into the season? Hurts and Sirianni's relationship being fractured. Is it healed? Is this healed or is this still something that's going to carry into the next season? All right, bro, it's kind of like an open moon that still festers, man. I think the Eagles got a lot of unanswered questions. Sirian, to be honest, man, I don't even think Sirianni's the answer for the Eagles organization.
00:56:54
Speaker
right? Um it's hard for me team that wins like 10 g they went on the 10 game like that last year. And t and losing at the end o know, to be fair cantin on a few of those when th And that's what I'm sayin to me weren't a fully put together team man and as you've already always said flow that it most times a quarterback that has a spectacular first year they go into a sophomore slump and that's kind of what happened to hers but hers had a lot of injuries man and you know as as i say what i think is going to happen for
00:57:30
Speaker
the and never had injury though They never put it out there that he had an injury but but he I mean he was limping I mean he he he he wasn't playing the ball that Jalen hurts plays so for me man I think that the Eagles they opened up against Green Bay in San Paulo Brazil man okay it's hard for me to predict what the Eagles gonna do man but I don't think I don't think that relationship is gonna be Nurtured of being in a position for them to be ready. Do you think that relationship has not completely healed though? No, man. No. Okay. What do you go. I'll go after Jake. Okay. Go ahead, Jake. I'm going to take this deeper, guys. And i'm gonna this is one of my first big moments that I'm going to call this before it happens, but I see it. It's a wide horizon.
00:58:21
Speaker
Guys, I think we're looking at the worst division in the NFL this year. I'm not playing. I don't see any of these teams going above 10 wins this year. flight I think the Eagles squeak it because of the Saquon Barkley. But I don't know what all in all, all four of these teams are complete garbage. They're going to be horrific to watch this season.
00:58:48
Speaker
And I'm telling you right now, it's not looking good. The Eagles have a franchise quarterback, and I'm hearing that they're even challenging if he will stay their franchise quarterback. That's embarrassing, guys. You just paid that man all that money. This is not head coaching anymore. I know you did that with- We may have three teams make it in that. But this ain't the same thing with quarterbacks, buddy. You're going to have to go through some hard, hard times. So without talking about the whole division now, I was just asking about the Eagles. Is that, is that relationship? yeah Breaking up the Eagles. This one hurts them with, with Nick Seriano. But do you think, do you think that relationship is still fractured? I think it's going to get worse. That's why I said this is going to be a vision all in all.
00:59:31
Speaker
This is a terrible division. I'm just talking about the Eagles. I see the Eagles now quarterback and coach are fighting each other. The Giants are going to be shit. We all knew or knew that already. And now we know for sure that the commanders can't do nothing because Dan Quinn's terrible. This is bad, guys. This is terrible. This is not going to be good football to watch this season. I'm warning you. I'm talking about the whole division when I asked about the Eagles. OK, can you stay out and touch Omar?
00:59:58
Speaker
is this new is Is this relationship healed? Is this still fractured? Is there still some healing to do? Is this going to carry into the season? You know, they had mentioned that Kellan Moore, you know, who is the the offensive coordinator, that Sirian is supposed to be hands off with the quarterback, which is kind of odd for a head coach and a quarterback. What do you think? Is this still a fractured relationship somewhat?
01:00:21
Speaker
It's not odd. This has happened so many times in the annals of history. I mean, how many times have we had coaches and QB's butt heads? It happens. They're both running an offense. They both want to run an offense their way. They both have things that they want to do. The coach can have his offense that he's going to instill. But the quarterback is always going to want to have input no matter who they are. So depending on your stature as quarterback, if you're Aaron Rodgers, you can tell, you know, the offensive coordinator for guys named to do whatever you want them to do. Neriani? Oh, uh, Kelly Moore? No, uh, no. There's Nathaniel Hayek at the idiot. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that one. The one that Sean Payton went off on. Yeah, Nathaniel Hayek. Oh, Nathaniel Hayek, yeah. Whereas if you're, you know, Bo Nix the non-fix, you know, you don't really have much respect in...
01:01:09
Speaker
You don't have much to say in what you're going to do. But every quarterback and every coach buttheads, it happens. It's going to happen. I'm not worried about this. The Eagles are a strong team. They're going to win at least 12 games. Oh, wow. 12 games. I mean, OK. All right. I don't know. Hold on. I want to ask this quick question real quick. Oh, my. Go ahead. Because they were already pissed at him for either making the playoffs and losing.
01:01:38
Speaker
But would you not be surprised, and I'm gonna say this, that three of the four teams in that division could fire their head coach by the end of the season? sure Think about it.
01:01:49
Speaker
I agree with that. green because i could see i because i could Because I could see Dallas and Philly and the Giants all firing their coach. Even if they make the playoffs, I can still see them. That's actually a good prediction. That's actually not a bad prediction. But you know what? That's not to say anything about their record. hey all cat make my audience i been't doing this no you know But Jake, the point is that it doesn't matter what their record is, because even if they make the playoffs, they can still be fired. So it wouldn't be for a bad record. but They're going to look bad. Yeah. the The point for my Cowboys, I mean, they're going to win 10 level 12 games. I mean, Mark McCarthy could win 12 games and get fired next year and have it. Get fired. Yeah, because it's all about the playoffs. It's all about the playoffs at this point for the the Cowboys. So ah speaking of the Cowboys, so there is, and Jake kind of mentioned it, they're still trying to sign CD.
01:02:39
Speaker
Jerry Jones had mentioned, Jerry Jones had said, you know, that they didn't miss him or, you know, they weren't, they weren't in the urgency for signed CD, but then he says he does miss CD, but not because, you know, I mean, he needs to play because obviously it's preseason. So there was kind of a belt back and forth and then also Dak has not been signed. Will we see both of these guys get signed before the season or one of them? What do you think gets signed? What do you think, Ken? What do you, what do you like here?
01:03:06
Speaker
I told you, i get I gave you my two cents, man. To be honest, man, I would move you know move on without that Prescott at this point, man. flow I mean, what is that Prescott got? But he's going to be on there nick this year, though. You're saying so just let him play out his contract? Just let him play out his contract, man. But okay hell, man, we we go to the playoffs year after year, 10, 12 games, man. We get to the first round and get beat. I mean, what do we do next year, then? And I told you about Steven A. Smith and all the stuff I pointed out to you.
01:03:35
Speaker
We got to get beyond that, man. If if if it's left up to me, man, I would sign CD-Lam. I want to have a perennial powerhouse as a receiver, keep Michael Parsons. Hell, I would start Cooper Rush. I'd start Cooper Rush. OK. All right. Cooper Rush better than Trey Lance.
01:03:54
Speaker
Okay, so you're saying sign CD and let Dak play out his contract and we'll just start over with that quarterback, let Cooper Rush is play. i like As I said, Flo, it's cool to win 10, 11 or 12 games, man, but none of that matters, man. We could go up against, we went up against the 9 and 8, I think, Green Bay team. That was a wild card. Number seven seeded team. and and they They got hot at the end of the season. They were kind of the opposite of the end. And that's what I'm saying. and It's like we we we beat Detroit.
01:04:21
Speaker
We've worn out at the end of the year, but it it's like we we got the class, we got cold, man. Yeah, um I kind of went in the defense. I mean, they let us down. But ah what do you think, Omar? OK, what do you think, Omar? Do you think like that canteen says they move on from DAG and they sign CD at some point? um so That you're feeling. Yeah.
01:04:45
Speaker
Yeah, I believe, i' at I believe if the Cowboys do not win, if the Cowboys do not make the conference championship, I believe Mike McCarthy will be fired and then Dak Prescott will be let go.
01:05:03
Speaker
I do not think that's the right move. I would sign both Prescott and Lamb. um Jerry Jones, you're being a cheap man. And hang on to McCarthy. Hang on to McCarthy. At that point, bring whoever you want. Bring Belichick, whoever. I don't care. in it So you're saying if they make, even if they don't make the conference, just find everybody and just change coaches, that' that's the thing.
01:05:25
Speaker
I think the only way that McCarthy could even stay on as coach is if he's made the conference championship and that's it. He would have to make that leaf stack at leaf stack only and then and at least at least be close, right? He couldn't get blown out in the conference. No, a blowout, he'd be gone. A blowout, he'd be gone. Real quick. So make him close. He finished for two. And Dak too, and Dak too. Okay, you're saying both.
01:05:47
Speaker
Yeah, both. But it's not on cd is what you're saying I don't believe that's what they should do. I believe they should sign both of them. I believe Jerry Jones is being a cheap ass. That's what I believe. And I believe that Jerry Jones is also a dumbass. because That doesn't make sense because because the waiting is possible. Because he's out here talking every year. But he's also here, and this will prove that point. He's out here every day talking in the media. oh We're not worried about them. It's OK. No, well we're not worried about them. This is going to help you get your free tickets, Omar.
01:06:14
Speaker
yeah well you do know what he's spending money every day he don't sign him that price is going up yes it is going up so i'm saying how's he being cheap i'm trying to save him money player trying to save him money why are you trying to save jerry money like so he can give me tickets to come back to the game because they're being cheap and won't give me tickets even though right we spent over a thousand dollars on his own tickets and they prevented me from seeing the game they don't want to give us what you prevented your you know what okay I'm calling out your cheap organization and I'm calling out you pay your damn players because if you don't pay them now TD lamb is gonna be worth a million more in two weeks so you better hurry yeah
01:06:52
Speaker
Okay, you're saying pay both, but you think antin's starts, man. That price is shooting through the roof for both. And that's the thing I'm trying to get flow to understand is city land, man. That training can mean that none of the prominent things that like, and here's the thing. I'm going to say this right here. Jerry Jones is a billionaire.
01:07:12
Speaker
He's only worried about his assets and making money on that side. He don't care about them players, man. He really don't, Flo. He really don't. Ain't no way in hell we that good of an organization and ain't won no Super Bowl since 95. Make it make sense to me. Thank you.
01:07:28
Speaker
Yeah, he's just not a good general manager. That's his problem. He's a great owner. He's just not a good general manager. He needs to hire somebody for that. He's a great owner because he has money. There's a bunch of money. No, no, no, no. Because he's a great marketer of the team. I mean, and they were just making money. It's just a part of the point. Here's the thing, man. When you look at but you look at a businessman and making money,
01:07:49
Speaker
He don't care. but um As an owner, he's great. But I'm saying as a GM running football operations is not. So what I'm saying is this right here, Flo, it doesn't matter if he was a Super Bowl or not. He's they already have. I mean, if he wins a Super Bowl, he's not going to want to give up that power. That's my point.
01:08:05
Speaker
And that's the thing. It's been 30 almost 30 years. You need to hit rock bottom. I mean, I don't know. I hear reports of the spring the training camp that ah there weren't a lot of people out there. The fans are starting to protest a little bit. There weren't a lot of fans out there. they man People are tired of spending their hard earned money, going to Dallas, going

Dallas Cowboys' Challenges and Speculations

01:08:25
Speaker
to do what we did. I mean, in our case, we won't.
01:08:28
Speaker
Right. People that invest a lot into that organization and all you get is every year, 11 and five, 11 and six, 12 and five. Last three years have been three years have been 12. But it don't mean nothing if you can't get beyond the wildcard round or the divisional round, man. What do you think, Jake?
01:08:50
Speaker
I know what we know. I think it's Cowboys. you yeah and jake It's embarrassing. It's embarrassing. That man said. He backtracks literally a day later and says, you are missed. Come on, man. Let me tell you something. This is embarrassing. It is embarrassing. It is. It's a sad, sad thing. But you know what, cowboy fans? I think he's going to see now. He's going to see now, like Joe Biden. And what makes it worse, what makes it worse is, dude, I'm telling you right now, Flo, ain't nobody in the NFL fair that fear, fear,
01:09:29
Speaker
that offense without C.D. Lam. There ain't nobody to worry about on that offense. I don't know. We got a pretty good, we got a pretty good. Stop. Don't do it. Please don't do that. Please don't do that. Please don't do that. Please don't do that. We got a pretty good Re-swatter stever group. Don't do that to yourself. C.D. Lam and a bunch of nobodies. They're not Randos. Come on now. They're definitely Randos. Hey, congratulations. You got, you got old Ezekiel Elliott.
01:09:58
Speaker
Boo, yeah. This is baby. Come on, man. No, these guys are pretty good. Brandon Kooks, Jalen Philbert are going to be pretty good. Hey, man. It's going to be pretty good. Jalen Brooks, he's young. OK, so Flo, do we have a top tier receiver? Do we have a top tier receiver? They don't even look good. These top four are going to be really productive this year. Do we as the Dallas Cowboys have a top tier receiver court right now?
01:10:26
Speaker
No! Yes. No, come on. We will. Come on, man. No one, no one said anything. Everybody questioned CD before he, before he came CD. No, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop. Yes, everybody was questioning. Can CD be that guy? Everybody was questioning. Brandon Brooks is good. Jaylen Tarver is coming on his own. Jaylen Brooks is really good. I'll give you, I'll give you that. Tarver is good, man. You got Brandon Brooks, dude.
01:10:53
Speaker
You got CDLAM and a bunch of blasts from his bozos out there. You know what's sad? Not one of them hit $1,000. Nobody else. With CDLAM, granted with CDLAM, we're you know twice as good. But what I'm saying is that we could survive with this with this group. no i point I think right there, Flo, you don't score over 14 points a game. Wow. No, we're going to score more than that. I might agree with that. I don't think so.
01:11:19
Speaker
but second Yeah, so we're gonna make the playoffs. I think that we're gonna be fine. This is what Jerry does every year but we got in Two weeks when you need to sign people he's gonna sign CD. He's trying to end up signing Dak um We'll see what happens. He does this all the time, and then he overpays, but that's what he does. I'm a countable fan. I've been a countable friend for a long time. He does this. This is what he does. So we can't do anything. He owns the team. He's paid a lot of money over the years. Well, I mean, he doesn't care. It's his money. He wants to waste the money. What do you want to do? So, I mean, that's what he does. So I guess he doesn't really care about money.
01:11:55
Speaker
I'm not saying he this is what he does. So this is why I count with me as a frustrated because this is but what he does every time. ah He thinks he can negotiate down or whatever he thinks he can get a discount hometown discount. And he's not going to do it. I'm now I agree with with ta with with can I think we should just let him play out his contract and move on from deck. Yeah. Unless he gets us to the Super Bowl. But I think Super Bowl blood for that flow flow. You got flow. You got it you got to think behind the scenes.
01:12:24
Speaker
Deon Sanders and Shadoor Sanders. And Jerry's like, I'm brewing. Shadoor Sanders will be donning a star on his helmet after this rap I'm telling you right now, bro. It's going to happen, man. What are you trying to say? What are you trying to say, Ganteen? Y'all must have the first round pick. Y'all must be following on what I said.
01:12:42
Speaker
should those sans will be a ah cowboy nature Yeah, but canine you can't keep saying that, because that means that you either well wasted a lot of picks to trade up, which would be stupid, or you only won like four games, five games. You don't think that's good. Go back, go back to that. See where I do. Hey, hey.
01:13:01
Speaker
Look at him, look at him. Looking after the door, man. He really wants the door. I know he wants one. You have to drive straight up. you have don't you wish a omar Don't you wish your girl would look at you the way Jerry Jones looks at you? I don't know what time it is. which other yeah You know what Jerry's going to be looking at? The ghost of me. He wished in power, Al Davis, when Shadura Sanders is a Raider next year. Oh, think so? I don't know about that. You're hoping he's a season Raider.
01:13:30
Speaker
I'll take them. I'll take them all day. Yeah, we'll see what happens. I don't know. This is what I think. This is my prediction. I think, unless we make the Super Bowl deck, they're going to move on from back. That's a period. And that's, you know, and of course McCarthy will be gone too. So we'll see. I don't know how he's going to hike in Panago Chidora. He's going to be a top pick. He's going to be in the top at least five. Yeah, he could be in the top five at least. I don't know how we're going to get that pick unless we give away future draft picks. I don't know what he does.
01:14:02
Speaker
Yeah, I'm just saying, I don't know how he's going to do that. So unless, unless he pulls a Eli Manning says, I'm not playing for that team and forces himself out of whatever can draft him. I mean, I guess that could happen. Well, I'm just saying, he could, he could say, Hey, I'm not going to play for anybody but Dallas.
01:14:20
Speaker
now He could do that. He could do that, right? Eli did it. but i'm not saying there Yeah, but Eli didn't choose his team. Yeah, but that he said I'm not paying for this team. He said he wasn't going to pay for it.
01:14:40
Speaker
They could do that, but the thing is, you're going to make it higher. Well, I don't know. Do you see the way they were taking pictures? Jerry wants to trade four first rounders, three second rounders, OK? If you want to, he'll trade away everything. You're going to be so much worse left than you are now. with what um I mean, how so? We have a rookie contract.
01:15:06
Speaker
because you only have three or four years. yeah Because you're trading all your future. You're trading you all your future. Right. Yeah, but it's a win now. He's going i going all in. and've never has hit and and that' it okay He's going all in. Next year, going all in. Both. And then when you can't afford Mica, then it's just inventory. Yeah, I guess so. We went all in. you know That's the way it is. I mean, i mean I'll be surprised. I'm good. It doesn't get traded in the next couple of weeks.
01:15:36
Speaker
i send it I said they're gonna have to let someone go. Really? um Wow. Y'all are good? Yeah. Well, we'll be good. We'll be good. I think you will, too. And that's enough cowboys. I'm tired of talking to talk about cowboys. All right. We're not gonna

This is about money. This is a fantasy league about money. You cannot

Fantasy Football League Rules

01:18:39
Speaker
be giving teams any advantage. And there was one other thing. I can't remember what it was, but I got to go back and look now. Well, if you can't remember, I'm not changing.
01:18:49
Speaker
Hey, but if I change that, you got to get in. I will if you do one other thing, but I will. You definitely got to change that. Definitely. OK, I've gained the advantage for one point. Man, you're really like ridiculous looking in there. I can't believe you would try some prep like that. What do you mean? I thought that was a good idea. It's not real. I'm not really visiting. But I'm saying it's home field. It's fantasy football. It means something if you get home field and see me. It's fantasy.
01:19:14
Speaker
it's your make leave It's not real. I know it's not real. There is no home field advantage. I don't know what the point of getting first place and in the regular season.
