Speaker 1 (00:02):
Is the best of two pros and a couple Joe
with Lamar Rings and Brady Winn and Jonas Knox on radio.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
I bet you you could pop it better than all it.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
Oh yeah, I don't even know what popping it is,
but I bet you you could do it better than anybody.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
If you will.
Speaker 4 (00:24):
Burt Bert, Yeah you bad. Brady, Yeah, Brady you bad.
Know how we're gonna take that.
Speaker 5 (00:32):
But it's two pros and a cup of Joe here
on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
I'm not really sure how we're going to Brady Quinn, Jonas, you.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Know you'd be popping it? Yeah, it in between breaks.
I don't dance.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
You're a two stepper if you.
Speaker 4 (00:48):
Want to be be honest. I'm actually a wrong spring
break on vacation with the fam, so we could be
hearing that as they get up here. Momentarily, I've been
doing push ups in between the breaks with my eldest daughter,
so she's, uh, she's trying to wrap them out right now,
and now she's asking if she can get a donut,
which is like parenting one on one, like your kid
does a little bit of physical activity and now they
(01:10):
want a donut, And I'm like, I get it. We're
on vacation. You're supposed to be, you know, having the
time of your life. But I don't know that we're
gonna get donut at seven am Eastern time.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
So were y'all in in Florida?
Speaker 4 (01:23):
We are going to divulge everything?
Speaker 3 (01:25):
But yeah, yeah, okay, my bad. You know what the
hell y'all move for? If y'all going to just keep
going back there?
Speaker 4 (01:33):
There can't think I go to Alaska and mind his
own business.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Have you guys ever been to Bermuda? I haven't been.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Raccoons. I had some raccoons swimming playing in my pool.
I got woke up to raccoons out back this time.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
Don't get me started. Don't get me he's your guy,
don't they. I mean, I've got a lot of respect,
a lot of respect for them. But those little dirty creatures,
let me tell you something. They will absolutely take a
dump in your pool on a daily basis and then
walk through side to politely wash off their front paws
(02:12):
and hind and get out.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
Yeah, they will give you the finger. They know how
to use them real well. You know it's interesting. I
almost grabbed my burner and and put it on them,
and then you're not killing.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
It, you know, you're just maiming it to the point
where it's not that correct. But he's gonna come back
ticked off the next time.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
I don't think so.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
I think that that would have been a deterrent, Like dang,
like they bust it up and lee Roy's ass man,
it's a deterrent.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
But they comes back with five friends and now they're
all dumping out right.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
I got but I got enough rounds for all of
all his friends. That's the problem for them.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
I think we might need a lethal option there.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Well, I don't know that we need lethal because if
they if getting hitting the ass with that that pellet
doesn't work, then I'll just hit them with some tear gas.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
So I was just like a skunk with it. Let's
just let's just let's just full go down this road
for a second. Because I also had an issue before
we left, all right. We had a deer that got
hit by a car that ended up near a property
and I'm calling I'm calling around because I'm like, all right,
there's there's a few options here. You can let nature
(03:18):
take its course, or you can call the township, the county,
the city. You know, someone you'd think like wildlife, like
someone's gonna be able to help out with this issue.
And I called the Sheriff's department and you kind of asked, like,
can you point me in the right direction? And then
the way he was no. The lady just goes, she
goes basically your sol you like, the nature has to
(03:41):
run its course on that. I said, well, you know, like,
I don't know that that's a great idea. We've got
young kids. I don't know that you own a bunch
of predators. We've we've seen a coyote out on the
property before, Like, I don't know if you want all that.
And she's like, yeah, I don't know how I tell
you to help out with that. So we call wildlife.
You know, they're not open. Over the course of a
weekend call back Monday, okay, we called the county, we
(04:04):
called the township and basically I'm not gonna say who
it was. I go, I get a hold of one
guy and the guy goes, yeah, oh, where's that deer
at I said, well, it's it's in a ditch like
near the entrance of the road, but not like like
you know, on the road. And he goes, yeah, pal,
let me tell you something.
Speaker 6 (04:26):
He goes, If that deer found some way of making
its way up there on that road. You catch what
I'm saying there, Pal, If that deer gets near that road,
let me tell you something, someone's gonna come right around
and pick it up.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
He goes.
Speaker 6 (04:40):
Now, if that deer happens to just stay in that ditch, he.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
Goes, I don't. I can't help you that path. That's
a that's a personal property issue. You're gonna have to
have to figure that thing out in your own And
I go, so, can you just repeat that one more time?
I just want to get this straight. I go, you
want or excuse me? I go, you mean, if this
dead carcass finds its way of moving, like if something
(05:09):
just a religious miracle happens and it just happens to
move up onto the road. You're telling me that, then
someone will come away to pick it up. I don't
have to worry about this. He goes, Yes, sir, that
is correct. I was like, okay, I go, well, I
appreciate your time. You've been the most helpful of anyone
that I've talked to you so far today, and I'll
(05:29):
just have to call back Monday. And figure this out more.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
I wish I knew you back then. I would have
told you swing around, didn't matter what time of shwing
around home depot, and you'd be good. My guy Jonas's
in laws would have came.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
And oh, by the way, by the way, hey, to
that point, brouh to that point. The first lady I
talked to with the Sheriff's office goes, because I said,
is there not like someone will grab it? She goes, well, sweetheart,
she goes, let me tell you if you don't know
the exact of when it got hit. She's like, I
(06:03):
can't really help you because she's like, there are people
who will come around and grab these things, but typically
in our case, if they're maimed and still alive, will
son someone who will put it out of its misery
and then they'll pick it up to take the meat,
but they have to make sure it doesn't have a
disease on it. I was like, wait a second. I
was like, you're telling me, like, you guys have people
who would just come up like basically pick up roadkill
(06:25):
and then use it for meat. And she goes, yes,
ma'am or yes, sir, that is correct, And I go
all right, Well, maybe I just need to find the
direct number to those people, because I'm sure because I
was like, I know what's happening in the last hour.
It was not then when I first went went went home,
and then I came back, it was there. And the
girls with my girls, they're like, go check on a dad.
(06:47):
I was like, nah, I've a hundred enough to know, Like,
I'm gonna let it lay there for a while because
if it is still alive, there's a chance it'll get
up and find its way. If it's not, you know,
eventually we can go back and grab it. Make sure
I go. The problem is gonna be if we wait too. Basically,
if you don't find kind of a sweet spot for
it to kind of go in there and make sure
it's dead and then get rid of it. Predators get after.
(07:10):
It's gonna get plucked out, the testings will be out.
It's probably a defecate everywhere. It's all that. Wait, So
how are you gonna get it on the road? Uh, well,
I'm gonna call today once the office opens up, and
I think there's actually the health department too, is supposed
to like kind of help handle these issues. So either
that or I'm gonna call LeVar after the show and
(07:31):
see if he's got a couple of guys.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
So I'm just telling you, bruh, I had at least
I had because I had a gate. I had one
of those type of gates when I lived in Maryland
where you know, you get impaled if you tried to
go over it.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
And I had a buck on there one time I had.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
I've gotten babies caught in the gate trying to run
through it, all kinds of different stuff, you see. I
just go right to home depot like as soon as
I see them go.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Why your eyes go like that, Jonas, what happened with
your eyes? Jody? I go, hey, I go to home
deep on and be like you do you want they?
I got buck, you know.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
And then after the first few times they like they
see me coming, they'd be like another one, yeah, they
will be there, all right. They come straight through that
thing be gone, and a couple of men, and I
mean not one time it was a big ass buck too.
They came and got him. They unimpelled him and took
him out of there quick. There was one time the
(08:28):
deer was still alive. You know.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
The secret menu hobbyers.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Well, venison is not bad. It's not a bad deal.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
Hey, hang on your fence. You don't know what about
you don't know how it got there. Like like you said,
they just got to make sure that get to go
free free range.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
That's it's halfway over the fence. It's optimistic about this. Yeah,
there was range.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
There was a baby there that was caught in in
the fence when we were on our way home, and
my kids.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Were like, Dad, Dad, save it, save it. There's like
the whole bunch of them are on the road hollering.
He's hollering. Everybody's hollering.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Ah.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
Right, So I get out and I grabbed I grabbed
the two the two rails or whatever that the poles
that the deer has caught in, and I screamed real loud.
My kids were like, Daddy, Superman. The deer got out,
(09:34):
the deer goes running out.
Speaker 7 (09:35):
They're like, it's saved them, he saved.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
It wasn't that hard, but I made it seem like
it was the hardest thing to do in the world
that I won that day.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Just know that Daddy won.
Speaker 4 (09:47):
Yeah, speaking of deer, And then the deer ran off,
and a coyote.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
And just got knocked off. Two minutes later, there was one.
I tried to give it water. It got up out
of here in the middle of me trying to give it.
Why I was just trying to like keep him, keep him,
keep him up, keep him alive. Here you got up
out of there. Yeah, I will.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Depending on the other chilling, they'll come up and get you.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
I didn't know.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Oh, I'll bust a cap in their ass though. See
that's the thing I was bearing arms on that property.
I'll destroy you now. I'll try to help you, but
if you give me some problems, I will I will
exercise my right to to go ahead and knock you down.
So yeah, better you let me help you rather than
me not help you in the other way, you know
(10:34):
what I mean.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
If you know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
I was just confused, like and you said, uh, because
you mentioned like Jonas's and laws home deeper, I didn't
know what that had to.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
Do with the deer, like, and they'll come get it. Yeah,
they'll come get it. But we had it, we had
an we had an animal control in Maryland, you know
you animal control. They'll come get it. They'll come destroy
it too. Like if if the animal can't be saved.
They will destroy it and take it to the woodchip
(11:04):
or leave it. Yeah, they throw it in the woods.
Yeah they will. They'll drag it to the woods. The
one I had to get destroyed, they had to drag down.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
They drug it.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
I had forty forty some acres, so they just drug
it to where there was just woods.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
You know, So you know it is what it is.
Speaker 5 (11:20):
By the way, do you know how many people listening
right now are mortified?
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Hey?
Speaker 3 (11:25):
Man, so I like work sometime. Them them raccoons. It
wasn't a bad story, wasn't a sad story. It looked
like they just courting each other. Like the one was
like in the water, like screaming like ahha. The other
one was standing there like trying to like mess with it.
I thought it was drowning at first. Then I realized
once we was watching them for for a couple of seconds,
(11:45):
it's like, man, they they rapping. They're on a date
right now.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
They're smouting. No, they were. They were come back good time.
Speaker 5 (11:53):
If there's anything there they liked, they'd come back. Because
my nephew had chickens, like had a whole chicken coop
and one raccoon came to sniff it out.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
And then within three days.
Speaker 5 (12:05):
Those chickens were annihilated because like three or four of them,
and they came back for more because they got a
taste of the blood. And then one was hanging out
in the tree, and then he wasn't hanging out in
the tree anymore.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
You know, it's crazy what happened.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
You know, how might I might have to go ahead
and just deter them. Yeah, we'll see what happens next time.
If I see if I hear them hollering like that
and playing in my pool like that and I wasn't
invited to hang out with them, I might bust a cat.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
I thank you, Thank you, Jerry, Thank you.

advanced in the NCAA tournament this weekend. We are going
to pay off this tease. Somebody in the NFL has
(13:00):
found their guy. I did want to mention this so
Amir Khan, who was the star of the opening round.
So he's on his way to NC State with Will
Wade and this guy made reportedly over six figures in
nil money. Whether it was a tax company, a Buffalo
(13:24):
wing company, there were some other sponsors that were out there.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
So all he had to do.
Speaker 5 (13:30):
Was hold a boom box with a strap walk out
before the game, shoulder strap, and he's making sick careful
you know.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
You know, straps is a different that's just different terminology
for straps, you know what I mean? Yeah, that shoulder strap.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
You know, and he's getting paid.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
How about that?
Speaker 4 (13:49):
I mean, look, I don't have a problem with it.
I would just ask all those people who are spending
all the nil money on this young man, like, why
not the players? I mean, no disrespect to the kid,
but if the basketball team isn't good enough, he's not highlighted,
Like if they're a crappy basketball team and he's leading
(14:11):
him out with a boombox, no one cares. So it's like,
can we not, Like are the players getting some of
this too? I mean some of those players are also
going to follow their coach to NC State and it
stinks for McNeese, but that's just the reality of where
college sports are at. And I just kind of go
back to him not against the young man earning it.
(14:32):
I'd hope he's sharing it with the players because again,
like and this isn't taking away from what a manager does.
He works his tail off, I'm sure, but have we
gotten to the point now where we've kind of missed
the substance of what makes March madness. What makes his
story great is that he's a manager who walks out
(14:55):
with a boombox and wraps maybe does or does not
say the I don't know. You can be the judge
of that. You can read his lips. But he's the
one getting the deals. It's like the manager of the
bull Like if Michael Jordan, all right, if Michael Jordan
was during this era, Like, would would Michael be like
(15:16):
mj would he be able to create his own shoe?
Or are we given the manager of UNC when he
was there or the manager of the Chicago Bulls when
he was there the nil deal? Like what's happening here?
Is this like the most ass backwards thing we've ever seen.
Speaker 5 (15:32):
I Mean, if there's so much extra money to throw
around that you're giving that guy money, Like, yeah, it
does seem like there would be a little left for
some other people.
Speaker 4 (15:40):
And by the way, if you're McNeice and you're like
any people who are part of it who are giving
him money, maybe you give it to players. Maybe they
don't leave to go to NC State, Like maybe that
actually could could have happened. He keep some of those
players there with you instead of them leaving to go
to NC State supposedly to get more money. I just look,
it's one of the cool stories of March madness. I
actually I picked up on this earlier this year. But
(16:04):
we're going way over the top with the whole aura
thing and all that. Yeah, their aura lasted for what
around they got in the second round and that was it.
We'll just call it what it is on fire, Yes, exactly,
And let's be honest. They they played a team in
(16:24):
Clemson that played its worst half of basketball all year,
maybe the worst half of basketball. And Clemson fans, could
you know, chime in on this, maybe the worst half
of basketball we've seen in the last decade. That was
how atrocious the first half was versus McNeese and they
turned around and scored what fifty four points in the
(16:45):
second half, which is like a break neck pace I
mean covered by the way based on the liveline that
I saw a half, but damn near came back to
tie it up taking an over overtime. So I know
we're making a bunch of this, but like, come on, man,
we can we help out the players. Can we help
out those guys, the guys that actually got McNeice there
in the first place. Yeah, And look, maybe I'm wrong.
(17:06):
Maybe someone's gonna come home and say, no, man, he's
sharing it with them or is. I haven't seen any
of that, Like, I haven't seen him come out and
say that. I haven't seen anything that states that any
of these McNeese players are getting six figure type nil deals.
And they're the reason he's in They're the reason he's
there in the first place. Without them, he's walking out
with a boombox solo or without them having success. No
(17:31):
one cares if you don't win. No one cares when
you walk out with a boom box rapping to pick
your rap or pick your hip hop so or whatever.
No one cares if you're a crappy basketball team. I'm
sure there's plenty of teams that have some similar walk
out something else going on that weren't very good this year,
and their guy, their manager's not getting paid ANIL deals.
(17:53):
I mean especially you know if they may or may
not have said the word. You know there's that too.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
I'm just glad he got the money. You know, I'm
glad he got it. In the n I L.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
I think that these guys when they do services, they're
they're tremendously undervalued. And you know what, it's it's about
time guys like Jonas Knox get recognized, appensated for the
things that they bring to the table. Just when these
athletes just are so they get so far ahead of
(18:23):
themselves that they just think that all the money needs
to go to them, And you know what, what about
the people that next next thing? You know, now, now
we're going to get the training room involved. You know,
we're gonna get the student trainers. We're going to get
them paid. Like we're going to get a n I
L deal of them taping the ankles and stretching them
out and you know, rolling out the I bands. You know,
(18:46):
we're gonna turn those into NI L deals of content.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
I like this. I like where this is going.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
That's That's what I'll say, damn, shame on these athletes
for thinking that all the nil money is supposed to
be for them. You know, because name, image and likeness
doesn't say athlete, name, image and likeness. It says your name,
image and your likeness. So if you're building that that
that value brand, if you're building that brand, you sill
not brood it for you.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
You got to build the brand.
Speaker 4 (19:15):
So when they go to Nancy State and he's walking
out with a boom box and they stink like this year, well.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
He's got to just keep He's just got to keep
you know, his oria crap. Then he's just got to
keep evolving because whether it takes a national you know,
footprint with what he's doing because of the success or
lack thereof of the team, he still can grow that
brand locally and still be monetizable in the local market.
(19:43):
So you just keep your head down and you keep
pushing forward, and you keep building your brand, young sir,
And you know what, I'm happy for you six figures.
You go push for seven now, you know, and maybe
these guys learn from you and and they'll start doing
the same thing.
Speaker 5 (19:59):
I heard he could gotten more, but he was listening
to up on game on that boom box.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Oh yeah, oh, Dan, he must have heard them say
that Jonas Knox was up next and they tuned out.
It must have been that part where I said, yeah,
I know, Jonas is up next.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Anybody home, be sure to catch live editions of Two
Pros and a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar
Errington and Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern, three
am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 5 (20:34):
Speaking of NFL quarterbacks, it is time for our daily
check in on the latest with what the hell is
going on with Aaron Rodgers and who's he going to
sign with? Report came out over the weekend that Rogers
met with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Friday. It was like
a six hour visit or something along those lines. I
(20:55):
think Jeremy Fowler or ESPN pointed out that it was
such a serious meeting that Pittsburgh skipped Michigan's Pro Day,
which is a big deal for the Pittsburgh Steelers. So
everybody was there, GM coach, front office, like offensive coordinator,
everybody met with Rogers, and according to Mike Florio uh
(21:16):
talking with a source that it's a safe bet that
Rogers will eventually sign with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Now we
just wait around to see when that's gonna happen.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
So there's your your latest on the Aaron Rode.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
So they said that the agent advised his his client,
Aaron Rodgers to take his time. What they said like
two weeks or so. I think that that's what they said.
I mean, my my biggest question is I would pose
to you guys, like because that's it got me thinking
because we did say that, like Q you did mention
that last week that it's like he doesn't need to
(21:50):
be in a rush to sign with a team.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
But my my thoughts are, well.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
If that's the case, why is why is Pittsburgh handling
it this way that that would be like, what's the
reason for waiting? Is it because you don't want to
report in? If you don't want to report in, just
say I don't want to report in. I'll sign with you,
but I just don't want to report in. Is it
(22:16):
you're trying to hold out for more money? How does
that work? Because is he in that much of a
demand where waiting is going to add more money.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
As as time passes on.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
I just I'm just curious as to what is the
thought process behind waiting. I mean, what's what's left to
look at, what's less left to monitor or be aware
of in terms of where he's going to go play.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
I think the quick answer to that would be that
the off season has not really started yet, so he's
he's not missing out on really anything at this point.
So you know, until the offseason training activities begin, and
really there's a couple of phases, right we all know,
there's the workout phase. We talked about the workout bonuses
(23:06):
that some players have in their contract for that portion
of it that extends into the practices and all that.
Until that time frame comes, you know, then you're probably
looking at a little bit more of a deadline being
on this. But again, you know, those training sessions occur
and you still haven't drafted your rookies, some of which
are going to be starters, you know, some of which
(23:28):
are going to be prime contributors on special teams and
backups on offense or defense. So when you really think
about it, like he's played forever outside of learning a
new system, which you know he did degrees of that,
you can make the case whether it was during his
time in Green Bay or even being with the New
York Jets, I think he's gonna be fine. Like he's
(23:50):
gonna be way ahead where the rookies are at. So
looking at it from that standpoint again, I keep going
back to the draft being in essence the deadline, because
at that point, the Steelers could have a player drop
to them. They could make a decision on a veteran guy,
which that's a whole other conversation with who still is
out there based on some reports. But I think, look,
(24:13):
if his agent's telling him to be patient, and Rogers
has talked to the team, he's talked to the coaching staff,
which we've seen from reports, and they're all on the
same page, it's kind of like, all right, well, you know,
like what's the rush for any of them at this point?
I mean, free agency is still kind of open, even
though it's almost done, at least for some of the
big names. It wasn't a huge free agent class, and
(24:35):
so that being said, like they weren't changing the trajectory
of this team through that. It took a trade. I mean,
DK Metcalf's been the biggest thing that's happened to this team,
and that was via a trade. So I look at
him to say, I understand why there's no reason to
rush into making this decision. I think there's a lot
(24:56):
of players who when they're trying to decide if they
want to keep playing or retire, it drags on into
this to some degree. And I think, again, this is
about his legacy, and this is probably about whether or
not he wants to go and do a situation and
figure out if he wants to do it again, and
if he can actually win doing it. I don't think
he took the Jets opportunity thinking like everything was going
(25:19):
to go the way it did, right, I mean, looking
back on it, if he would have known this, like
he probably would have went to the New York Jets,
I'm gonna have taken up a different opportunity, maybe just retired.
So I don't think he wants to make that same
mistake twice, and I don't think he would if he
went to the Pittsburgh Steelers. But at the same time,
I don't think he's rushing to make that decision to
go there. Either.
Speaker 5 (25:41):
Take your time, you know what I mean, Like, let's
just have this, we could do it, babe. Take your
time do it tonight. Okay, you know, give somebody something
to talk about. You know, something wrong with that? I mean,
you know how long we had to sit there and
debate whether or not the Cowboys were going to give
Dak Prescott a contract during COVID. We been through worse
in sports media, all right, Like we went through COVID.
(26:04):
We went through all that crap. Nothing going on, Like,
just let love Rogers take his time, He'll make a decision.
He's probably gonna end up in Pittsburgh. And if you're
the Steelers, what other options you got?
Speaker 2 (26:15):
Well, if you're Aaron Rodgers, what other options do you have?
You know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (26:19):
I think they're both in the same situation here, and
I would ultimately say the situation is.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
Best for both sides.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
So if they met with them, and they had the conversation,
and they you know, didn't go to a Michigan pro day,
because that can be offensive, right for a team to
not show up to a blue blood school for their
pro day and miss out on seeing the prospects and
having that time with the coaching staff and with with
(26:50):
the players. For them to do this meeting, so they
showed the level of importance and just the way that
it looks with with the way they brought in DK Metcalf.
They they have pickings, they have Friar Move. I mean,
this is this is uh, this is a wide receiving
(27:10):
corps that could turn out to be one of the
you know, top tandems in in the National Football League.
And you also will you know, have more opportunities for
Friar Move to to get involved and and take maybe
another step forward and being an elite tight end as
well in the league. So I think it's a great
opportunity for for Aaron Rodgers. And like I said, you know,
(27:34):
a lot of people are saying, you know, kind of
like sloppy seconds.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
This is this is a horrible thing.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
For for Pittsburgh to be in a situation like this.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Uh you know, oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
I heard I heard I mean I'll throw I heard
Harmon said, and I uh heard Harmon said, Uh.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
So he gets he gets the first boy because he's
the top of the bracket?
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Is that? Why not not? Not Hartman? Harmon different? You
know that? Damn. The interesting thing is.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
My guy, I feel like there's a lot of people
that feel is though Minnesota was was definitely the destination
that that Aaron Rodgers wanted, and then now how do
you handle things from here?
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Which I think that the.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
Positives and all of this is is that the Steelers
are still in need, and they're not too far off
from being a more competitive team, and Aaron Rodgers needs
a team, and we don't know how far off from
being what he can be in terms of a positive
contributor to a team. We just know he did finish
out his season strong with the Jets, and in the
(28:50):
right situation, I think everybody would assume that Aaron Rodgers
comes and he has a comeback year type of year,
come back player type of year for for a team,
and I think that the Steelers will be the ideal
place for that. So, you know, it'll just be interesting
to see how quickly it plays out.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
You know, I'm curious to see if they're all full
of piss and vinegar if Rogers signs in Pittsburgh. Roethlisberger,
because he's not a big fan of other quarterbacks that
have tried to take over in Pittsburgh. Mason Rudolph got
drafted and Roethlisberger took time out of his off season
to call into some sports radio show on the weekend
to criticize the move if they land Rogers, who's got
(29:30):
the credentials he's got. I'm just curious how Ben Roethlisberger
is going to handle that because he's not shy about
airing out the organization and what's going on with the organization.
So we will wait to see and if there's any
news on Aaron Rodgers signing in Pittsburgh, we will have
it covered here on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
Because it'll happen this early in the day. You know,
well I wouldn't. We'll get that breaking news. Damn, you
got to be awake to make some signing. Yeah, it's
alarms is just going off while we all.
Speaker 5 (30:05):
You know, don't forget we were on the air when
when OJ died filling.
Speaker 4 (30:11):
In for DA. We were. I was in state college,
Yeah he wasn't.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
No.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Be sure to catch live editions of Two Pros and

You would think that, you know, you're going somewhere your
you're famous that at like, no, like when you're in college,
people don't really know you all like that, which is
cool because you could go have a good time. Like

you want to hang out, and you know, you have
a good good time. Good Deck, Mango Deck. You just
have a good time at places like Mango Deck.

Speaker 3 (31:52):
I can guarantee you, dude, questionable things man time.
Speaker 4 (31:57):
Yeah, I'll be your whale. You know, hang that that

Speaker 2 (32:02):

Speaker 5 (32:03):
Oh Jonah, I've got that one confused to what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (32:09):

what you're named after.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
I was like, you were swallow Jonas?
Speaker 4 (32:15):
But wait does she pronounce it? Is that why?
Speaker 2 (32:19):
I don't know?
Speaker 4 (32:19):
I think she.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
I think she had Jonah something. Nah, Jonahs is plural,
you're jonah one? Oh no, it's wrong with you, man.
Speaker 4 (32:34):
He just picture Jonas out there. He has a little
French tickler and all that. What's up? I'm Jonas wild.
You gotta get your drink or something.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
Your nimble pier No, I couldn't do it.
Speaker 4 (32:52):
You thought about Carlie though, Yeah, cartilage just pierced. I
had a librett.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
Uh know you had a little Brett John did you have?
Did you want.
Speaker 4 (33:04):
Piercings? Do you want to see all my piercings?
Speaker 2 (33:07):
You were going? Were you going full grunge? No? I
wasn't grunge.
Speaker 4 (33:13):
You weren't. No.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
It sounds like you were hitting towards full grun.
Speaker 4 (33:17):
No grunges like he was a vampire not showering.
Speaker 3 (33:21):
You know, aren't like piercing people though, like grun that's grunge.
That's more grunge. Right, Like you were a mosh pitter.
You had like, you know, rings on all your fingers
and you would use them to punch people upside the head.
Speaker 5 (33:36):
It's different. That's different. You're you're confusing goth and grunge.
Grunge is flannel shirts.
Speaker 4 (33:44):
Uh, you know.
Speaker 5 (33:45):
Unkept hair, body odor a little questionable.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
Yeah, piercings.
Speaker 4 (33:52):
Gothic is more.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
That's that's the mash picking. Mosh pitting Goth isn't mosh pitting.
That's that's ath is.
Speaker 2 (34:00):
More like.
Speaker 3 (34:02):
Uh like you know sting, you know, like like the
wrestlers sting, Like they're not mosh pitting.
Speaker 2 (34:11):
They're they're more.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Or less like skateboarding maybe a little bit maybe acting.
Speaker 2 (34:16):
They're Thespians, you know, Thespians. Thank you, thank you, Lee.
I'll be hit y'all with little one job.
Speaker 3 (34:26):
Uh but anyways, I think God Goth they're not they're
not mosh pitting grun most pitts.
Speaker 4 (34:36):
Uh No, not really.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
Emo.
Speaker 5 (34:38):
Emo's like really desperate for uh, you know, attention, like
wants everybody to know that they're like, hey, I'm in
another place right now, even though I'm present, you know,
like those weirdos, It wasn't like that just uh, you know,
some queshionable thousand choice.
Speaker 4 (34:54):
That's actually a great way of describing it.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Like is it?
Speaker 4 (34:58):
Am I wrong? Like that's just how Emo do it?
One more time? Hey, listen, Like I know, I'm like present,
I'm somewhere else right now. Is that like while you
have a beanie on, even though it's like seventy five,
it's like a long beanie and like a really deep
V step through to put it on.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
It's just dumb, you know.
Speaker 4 (35:17):
And I wear my beanie because you know, I want
to stay warm but inside of cold, you know, because
I'm Emo.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
I think emos are are capable of mosh there at
mosh pitters. Emo is more on par with with grunge
if you ask really, I think so it's close.
Speaker 4 (35:36):
I think emails of the dudes gets knocked out in
those grunge pits.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
They might, they might, but they're like they're more punk,
like punk rocker type dudes, right, Like I got that
punk feel to them.
Speaker 5 (35:48):
They're like they're like vegan goths. Okay, okay, so it's
kind of like you're still married to.
Speaker 3 (35:58):
The goth thing like God, are goths mash pitting? I
don't think goths are mosh pitt.
Speaker 5 (36:04):
I don't think anybody really moshpits anymore, to be honest
with you, But historically, who did punks?
Speaker 4 (36:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (36:12):
Punks?
Speaker 3 (36:13):
Right?
Speaker 2 (36:13):
Rockers like grunge? Isn't that connected to grunge? I thought
it was. Maybe I had it wrong. I don't know,
maybe I.
Speaker 7 (36:21):
Had Big Four are emo, gothic, grunge and punk?
Speaker 4 (36:25):
Hm did you just AI that?
Speaker 1 (36:27):
Lee?
Speaker 4 (36:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (36:29):
Okay, thank you?
Speaker 4 (36:30):
By the way, Lee, would you say since AI has
come around, you've become exponentially better as a producer as
far as research?
Speaker 7 (36:39):
Uh, exponentially No, I mean maybe slightly.
Speaker 4 (36:45):
If we had this show ten years ago. I don't
think you're able to research as well as you do now.
And what is your AI of choice? By the way,
I really don't use it too often. I mean I
I'll I just use Thatchine but A I mean, yeah,
I don't need it. What about AI? I'll just say
maybe maybe that's part of the issues. You don't have
grock or chat GBT. I do.
Speaker 7 (37:06):
I do chat GPT once in a while.
Speaker 4 (37:08):
I actually have been used trying to use that a
little bit, like I think Grock's better. I think that's
the best of all of them.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
Really, I use chat GBT every day.
Speaker 4 (37:17):
Gros phenomenal Rocks.
Speaker 2 (37:22):
What's the difference, Well, chat GBT when.
Speaker 4 (37:24):
I when I've done some research on it, there are
some stuff like when I was looking at NFL off
season moves, it was blatantly didn't happen or like was
two years old, and like I said, like, that's not
from you know, this time period, and it was like,
you're right, we got that wrong. I was like, okay,
this is I mean, I'm glad there's like a human
element of it. But at the same time, I was like,
(37:45):
you've ruined my trust and you Chat GBT. I'm moving
on to Grock.
Speaker 5 (37:49):
Dang, you know, you know, Brady good point. We did
get that wrong, Like you're supposed to tell me.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
You know, I did do that on national radio guys,
Thank you check GBT for doing that to me. I
trusted you.
Speaker 4 (38:03):
I did no longer now I trust Lee, which and
here's the thing is, as our listeners know, if Lee
gets the wrong, we laugh about it, we have fun
with it, and it's bound to happen. It's a coin flip,
so it's more fun that way.
Speaker 3 (38:16):
But at least you could get away with it saying
that you trusted Lee to do it, because now Lee's
got to give you an explanation as to why he
violated your trust, which gives an entertainment value that our
audience can appreciate, you know.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
So there you go. It's a win win situation.
Speaker 5 (38:32):
Give a Lee credit though for this, Like I had
no idea that he still had lingering shoulder and wrist
issues from the fall New Orleans.
Speaker 2 (38:39):
He never really complained about that. Didn't complain about that.
Speaker 4 (38:42):
Like the knee that was scraped up at the super
Bowl that got gang green, he.
Speaker 2 (38:46):
Didn't complain about that either. He was wearing jeans the
next day with no bandage.
Speaker 4 (38:52):
It basically looked like a Civil War wound, and.
Speaker 2 (38:55):
He rubbed a different wound like that wasn't even the
original wound. He rubbed it on with a jeans. Why
you got all them old bloodstained.
Speaker 4 (39:04):
By you never changed his jeans. He wor jeans like
four or five days of the road.
Speaker 3 (39:08):
Just rubbing on the knee, Like Lee, your knee is
changing colors, bru like knees air what.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
Are you doing? I would blad a.
Speaker 7 (39:20):
We're taking like two or three this year and they're
piling up.
Speaker 2 (39:25):
Dang, that's crazy. I'm mortified of falling. I ain't gonna lie.
That's I'm scared the fall.
Speaker 3 (39:31):
Boy. I had a couple of close ones going down
the stairs. I do not want to fall. That's just
not what I want to deal with.
Speaker 2 (39:38):
Man.
Speaker 3 (39:39):
But if I were faded like Lee was, I don't
know how that would go. Like would I feel it?
I know I'm gonna feel it later, But in the moment,
how bad would it be? It's such an inconvenience to
have falls like that.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
Man.
Speaker 4 (39:51):
It's always better to have people fall for you.
Speaker 2 (39:54):
Oh wow, you know what I mean. Dang, thank you
shooting me. Thank you appreciate that, jeans, that's very nice.
Can we.
Speaker 5 (40:04):
Can we give a a little the cap to us
somebody who deserves I mean somewhat say an apology. I'll
just put it as some respect. The great John Calipari
had to sit there and listen to an ungrateful fan
(40:25):
base like Kentucky wear him out, mistreat him, bully him,
just the way they've talked about him delivering them a
national title. You know, which I mean seemed like it
was just yesterday, and now he decides to go elsewhere
(40:46):
and pursue a job elsewhere. He gets stark and saw
they're underdogs against Saint John's. Everyone just assumes that Rick
Patino is the better coach and he's going to take
his team places and John Calipari in Arkansas get it
done over the weekend. So congratulations a huge.
Speaker 4 (41:06):
I mean, you're not going to acknowledge that it was
against Saint John's, a higher seed, a team that was favored.
I'm not really sure why. Again, that was one of
the games and the matchups that look Arkansas's more talented team.
He brought a lot of those kids with him from
Kentucky hit a much bigger nil pool. I still think
Rick Patino is a better coach, and I understand that
John cala Parry is what second coach in men's NBA
(41:30):
history to excuse me, NCAA history, to take four different
teams of the Sweet sixteen. It had been what five
six years since he took a Kentucky team to the
Sweet sixteen. That's it's one of the reasons why they
kind of pushed him out. And there also comes a
point in time. I think in a coach is ten year,
where like sometimes things get stale, and I think that's
probably where his time was at. Kentucky and Arkansas felt
(41:51):
motivated and they have generated a lot of momentum behind him,
at least for this year. But Kentucky's in the Sweet
sixteen too, so that's the other side of the Like,
there's so many storylines off this matchup. The first thing
I'll say though, about that game, that was the worst
officiated game I think I'd seen in the tournament so far.
I mean the fouls. It was like forty two fouls
(42:14):
or something like that we're called It might have been
more than that, I think, I forget at what point
in the game I saw that flash up on the screen.
Speaker 2 (42:20):
I was like, my god, it was a rough watch.
Speaker 4 (42:22):
Well, I mean, look, and I understand it was a
physical game, but there were some inconsistencies. It felt like,
especially towards the end, the officials really wanted to like
make their legacy about being the officials that were a
part of this game. And there's a lot. I mean, look,
that was Brick Patino and John Caliperriy. We're two and
two versus each other. Coming into that matchup and Cali
Parry now is the you know, the advantagees you know,
(42:44):
three and two against Patino. But that was a game
that was huge, I think for either side and kind
of making their case as far as for Kentucky fans,
who was probably the better between the two. Again, I
still side with Patino, but at the end it put
even more pressure on Mark Pope and for Kentucky to
(43:04):
be able to get to that level, to the sweet sixteen,
if not even further, I mean either a higher seed
they had a better season, but still like that, like
where Kentucky goes as compared to where Arkansas goes. And
this is not the right way to look at it,
but it's how it's gonna be discussed. It's gonna send
Kentucky fans into a state of chaos if Arkansas makes
(43:28):
it further than Kentucky, Like they are gonna go nuts
if that takes place. And the sad thing about it is,
I don't know that Kentucky's as talented as Arkansas is
with all the players who left and all the players
cal braw with them. But if they play how they
did this past weekend, like to me, they're a final
four team. That's that's where I've got them going. Part
(43:48):
of that's more my heart than my head because I've
grown up kind of a Kentucky basketball fan. But we'll see,
we'll see what the rest of the tournament holds.
Speaker 3 (43:55):
Is Contino pool Louis out. That's that was like, that
was a big conversation coming out of the game. That's
your player of the year in the big Big East.
Why would you why would Patino pull him out and
never put him back in? I mean, he didn't answer
the question, but I'd ask you, guys, like if you
have your I know he said, he played his minutes
(44:17):
and there was four minutes left, but you needed you know,
you needed points.
Speaker 2 (44:22):
They weren't scoring.
Speaker 4 (44:22):
As many want to hear from slick Rick.
Speaker 2 (44:24):
Come on, let's hear it.
Speaker 4 (44:26):
You had RJ on the bench, you know for a
pretty long stretch at the end.
Speaker 2 (44:30):
Was that just because he just didn't wasn't making him
or was there something more to it?
Speaker 8 (44:35):
Played thirty minutes, It's a long time, so he was tired. No,
played thirty minutes and I went with other people. You
already know the answers, Roger, you're asking leading questions Geordy
know it, So don't ask leading question.
Speaker 4 (44:48):
Geordy know why he didn't play. Was there one play
with ARJ that made you sit him in the last
five minutes?
Speaker 8 (44:53):
You know, he was three for seventeen. You know, he
was oh for three, So you're answering your I'm not
going to knock one of my players.
Speaker 2 (44:58):
So so he pulled for poor play basically, That's that's
the reality of it is.
Speaker 4 (45:04):
Yeah, he hit a bad shooting night, and that happens.
Like we talked about that being the Achilles Heel for
any team that's a top seeded team or one of
the best teams in a sudden death tournament like that,
Like it only takes you know, one bat shooting night
and you're out, which is unfortunate. But I look, that's
the one thing where I look at it and say,
if I was going to disagree with anything, it's it's
(45:25):
like you got to give your star player a shot. Yeah,
you know, and I know think yeah, and I think
sometimes and here's the thing I would say about his
bad shooting night, and then this is just my blood,
you know, watching the game, watching how it played out,
I thought he took some bad shots. It wasn't even
that he was missing a lot of shots, which he was,
but it was compounded by the fact that they weren't
(45:47):
great shots. And if it was either deep into the
shot clock, I get that that's kind of thrown on you.
But there was times where it just it wasn't a
great decision, it wasn't a great shot. And I wonder
how much that played a factor or played a role
in two and him saying like, it's not even just
that he's having offshooting night, he's not even taking the
shots you're lik him to take in this instance.
Speaker 3 (46:09):
I mean, I respect, you know, obviously Rick Patinos is
going to be more in tune with what he needs
to do, you know, more than myself. But I just
felt like in that moment when you pull your best
player out with four minutes left, like you pull them
out and it's like, take a deep breath, are you
all right? Okay, get back in there, you know, to
(46:31):
hold him out, and the whole team was struggling to
score they they were, the whole team was struggling on offense.
So to me, I just felt like, you got to
put your best player back in and see if you
see it through, see if he can catch catch fire
for you down the stretch.
Speaker 5 (46:46):
I think there was more to it, because Lewis said
after the game something along the lines of, I didn't
play like a leader today, and I just wonder if
you might have popped.
Speaker 2 (46:57):
Off, and that might have been all so part of
the reason why he was left out.
Speaker 4 (47:02):
You think he popped off, You think that was what
it was.
Speaker 2 (47:04):
I think something.
Speaker 3 (47:05):
I wouldn't have kept him out for that either, Like,
let's handle that after the game. I mean, he he
played to lead off with well he played thirty minutes, Like,
come on, Rick, I know it's a leading question, and
you're right, it was a leading question. I get that
he was trying to lead you down somewhere where he
already knew the answers. You know, he felt like he
was playing poorly. But I still don't feel like that
(47:28):
was total justification. So to your point, Jonas, there could
have been something more to it that wasn't being discussed,
that maybe there was an idea of what the relationship
could have been.
Speaker 2 (47:40):
Maybe that could have played a part in it.
Speaker 4 (47:42):
It can't just be well, he had a bad shooting night,
so did everybody on the team.
Speaker 2 (47:45):
Everybody by the.
Speaker 4 (47:47):
Way, that was one of the worst shooting performances by
both teams in the tournament. They missed, mister, watch everybody did.
And going back to like another apple with this earlier
and to your point, LeVar like like keep the guy
in there, eventually help him work it out of it.
I mean, I remember Tim Hardaway, like back in the
(48:07):
day from the Miami Heat. Dude, that guy if he
was having a bad shooting night, you know, because he
just keeps shooting and like eventually law of averages, like
he would go shoot his way out in.
Speaker 2 (48:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (48:17):
But you know, I look at Braden Smith, the point
guard for Purdue, and to go back and watch their
high point matchup, their opening matchup, he struggled, And I'm
sitting there watching with my pops, watching with Chopper, and
I was kind of hyping him up going into it.
I'm like, hey, like Tonzo had a lot of great
things to say about him, and you know, he's he
was like over six seven eight, like in the stretch
(48:40):
of what we were when we were watching the game,
and he's like, man, he just can't buy a bucket tonight.
And and the reality is Painter still left him in
He wasn't going to take him out. He's that integral
to his team, and I think when you have a
star player like that, you have to allow him to
find other ways of being able to get points or
getting the basket. And what he ended up doing. He
found ways to get layups towards the end as they
(49:00):
started to distance themselves, and he found ways again to
the free throw line, and he ended up, you know,
hitting a few free throws that I think helped a
little bit towards the end too, and him getting getting
back into a rhythm. So that was the one thing
I think was questionable by Patino in the end. I'm
still not sure it was going to make a difference,
Like I just think Arkansas was the more talented team
and they were going to make a play in the
end to win that game.
Speaker 5 (49:21):
Uh leah quickly for the people that weren't with us
earlier in this the uh standings on the bracket Challenge
on Fox Sports Radio dot.
Speaker 2 (49:30):
Com, we need a whole segment to get to your
rank it.
Speaker 4 (49:36):
Did LeVar fill his out?
Speaker 3 (49:38):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (49:39):
Yeah, Var you're.
Speaker 2 (49:40):
There too, so seventh.
Speaker 9 (49:41):
Yeah, you're in seventh right now. Brady's in second at
fifty four points. LeVar you're at forty six points at seventh.
You had Yukon in the final.
Speaker 2 (49:48):
I'm in good.
Speaker 3 (49:48):
I'm in good. I'm in good, a good position. I
did have Yukon making it.
Speaker 4 (49:53):
Making it thought he was picking the women's tournament.
Speaker 7 (49:58):
Well, and then of course I think.
Speaker 3 (50:00):
That's so funny. I mean, a lot of my teams
are still alive. I think only one slot is not
filled with a team that I've chosen, regardless of how
we got in there. I have a lot of teams
still alive.
Speaker 9 (50:13):
Does Michigan State winning it all against Alabama and Kentucky's
there in the final four. I did mention Yukon in there,
so no Yukon he had. You had Yukon and Saint
John's not in the final four though the Elite eight.
My final four are still available. My final four in
my championship, you had Yukon.
Speaker 2 (50:34):
I had Yukon.
Speaker 4 (50:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (50:35):
No, No, I have Michigan State winning.
Speaker 7 (50:37):
You have Michigan.
Speaker 3 (50:38):
You have Yukon in the final final four? Oh oh, okay,
well I have three. I have three teams still alive.
Speaker 2 (50:46):
Go I have four.
Speaker 9 (50:48):
By the way, if you guys want to know what
I'm doing, get to break only one point behind you,
buddy to break?
Speaker 2 (50:57):
Yeah, I gotta get the cares. Oh lovely, No, no
one cares.
Speaker 4 (51:02):
Would you have the drink last night?
Speaker 2 (51:03):
Though?
Speaker 4 (51:04):
Before you get a break?
Speaker 7 (51:04):
I had read one. I had a little pino there
you go.
Speaker 9 (51:10):
Oh and then I had a pin not a not
a Mitchellata had a mango cart with some tahin earlier
than this.
Speaker 4 (51:16):
Sounds delicious, it was very refreshing, Lee, Was that it
for the night? Did you have a little bit more?
Speaker 2 (51:20):
That was it for the night?
Speaker 4 (51:22):
Okay?
Speaker 7 (51:23):
But I did see that beat Box for twenty dollars.
Speaker 2 (51:24):
And that was insane.
Speaker 4 (51:26):
You're such a lie.
Speaker 3 (51:27):
So that's the reason why you didn't get it is
because it was twenty dollars. If it was cheaper, you
would have grabbed. I just saw it at a bar
and I was interested. I said how much is the
beat box? And they said twenty dollars and I thought
that was ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (51:39):
How much they normal markup?
Speaker 7 (51:40):
Well, you get at the liquor store for like five bucks.
Speaker 5 (51:44):
By the way, they're a sponsor. I was watching a
bowling on FS one last week and beat Box one
of the sponsors there.
Speaker 9 (51:52):
Yeah, they're get there, Yeah, Lee, Look you've started. Oh,
they were at the Lorena sent me a picture. They
were at the festival. She was that they had a
big loud.
Speaker 2 (52:01):
Yeah, big stowling loud. Lonzo Ball was there tugging. He
was real thugged out on stage with all of his
homies you know from uh, you know from Chin o' hills.
Speaker 4 (52:14):
Yeah. Brady texted me He's like, man, check this guy out.
He's thugging and bugging.
Speaker 2 (52:18):
Thugging and bugging.
Speaker 4 (52:19):
That sounds like something I'd sack dozen la far and
then yeah.
Speaker 1 (52:22):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (52:23):
Then for the record, Jonas has two teams left in
his final four. He's got Duke in Houston, both Saint
John's and Texas and m my guy buzz Whims unfortunately eliminated,
but uh yeah, he's got two left. Why should I
be held accountable for bad play? Mostly because you talked
so much trash to our listeners before the termament started.
(52:43):
That is, I believe you said you would publicly beat anyone.
Speaker 2 (52:47):
You did your bracket, you did, and you're like almost
near last place.
Speaker 9 (52:52):
Yes, speaking of our listeners, shout outs to Gary Anderson
at the top with fifty eight and fifty seven.
Speaker 7 (52:59):
Yeah, Gary Anderson, the.
Speaker 4 (53:00):
Kicker, Harry Henderson the kicker.
Speaker 7 (53:02):
Sweet, it's perfect.
Speaker 2 (53:04):
We don't know that for certain, do we?
Speaker 4 (53:07):
No?
Speaker 3 (53:07):
No?
Speaker 4 (53:07):
Hey, Lee, could you check what is my avatar for
my bracket challenge?
Speaker 7 (53:12):
I can't make it out, but maybe it's because I'm
not looking close enough. What is that avatar?
Speaker 4 (53:17):
Could you try zooming in a Is it possible?
Speaker 7 (53:20):
Because I had it on my phone and I can't.
Speaker 4 (53:22):
Let's let's do this quickly then, Lorenda, could you please
play some like Jeopardy music for us? Oh no, we'll
all take a stab at.
Speaker 2 (53:29):
What this is here?
Speaker 4 (53:31):
We go all right, leave all your first stuff. It's
a recent event that has taking place, a recent event
that in the sports world.
Speaker 3 (53:40):
Okay, that's that's a good clue. In the sports world
the super Bowl, No Jonas, it goes to you.
Speaker 4 (53:51):
Notre name winning the Orange Bowl. That is incorrect, Lee.
Speaker 2 (53:54):
Last track.
Speaker 7 (53:56):
Sorry, I'm holding it up. We're looking at it, rand,
isn't it?
Speaker 2 (54:01):
It's I didn't get.
Speaker 7 (54:03):
What it's Tracy Morgan.
Speaker 4 (54:10):
Let me tell you something right now, man, Okay, little done?
All right? You know that that damn bloody knows food poisoning.
Speaker 3 (54:24):
Hey, he really was up in the hospital, like plugged
up though, like maybe something did really go wrong, you know,
and was maybe just self induced, Like maybe something was
really going wrong. All right, he's feeling better.
Speaker 4 (54:38):
What a class act.
Speaker 3 (54:40):
I'm glad that you wasted no time making that his deal,
like like too soon, Like is it to son to
make that your avatar? It was, well, my thought was
this bracket and I could be puking up all of
the floor.
Speaker 2 (54:55):
So okay, wow, alright, that makes sense.
Speaker 4 (54:59):
Unbelievable
Is the best of two pros and a couple Joe
with Lamar Rings and Brady Winn and Jonas Knox on radio.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
I bet you you could pop it better than all it.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
Oh yeah, I don't even know what popping it is,
but I bet you you could do it better than anybody.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
If you will.
Speaker 4 (00:24):
Burt Bert, Yeah you bad. Brady, Yeah, Brady you bad.
Know how we're gonna take that.
Speaker 5 (00:32):
But it's two pros and a cup of Joe here
on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
I'm not really sure how we're going to Brady Quinn, Jonas, you.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Know you'd be popping it? Yeah, it in between breaks.
I don't dance.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
You're a two stepper if you.
Speaker 4 (00:48):
Want to be be honest. I'm actually a wrong spring
break on vacation with the fam, so we could be
hearing that as they get up here. Momentarily, I've been
doing push ups in between the breaks with my eldest daughter,
so she's, uh, she's trying to wrap them out right now,
and now she's asking if she can get a donut,
which is like parenting one on one, like your kid
does a little bit of physical activity and now they
(01:10):
want a donut, And I'm like, I get it. We're
on vacation. You're supposed to be, you know, having the
time of your life. But I don't know that we're
gonna get donut at seven am Eastern time.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
So were y'all in in Florida?
Speaker 4 (01:23):
We are going to divulge everything?
Speaker 3 (01:25):
But yeah, yeah, okay, my bad. You know what the
hell y'all move for? If y'all going to just keep
going back there?
Speaker 4 (01:33):
There can't think I go to Alaska and mind his
own business.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Have you guys ever been to Bermuda? I haven't been.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Raccoons. I had some raccoons swimming playing in my pool.
I got woke up to raccoons out back this time.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
Don't get me started. Don't get me he's your guy,
don't they. I mean, I've got a lot of respect,
a lot of respect for them. But those little dirty creatures,
let me tell you something. They will absolutely take a
dump in your pool on a daily basis and then
walk through side to politely wash off their front paws
(02:12):
and hind and get out.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
Yeah, they will give you the finger. They know how
to use them real well. You know it's interesting. I
almost grabbed my burner and and put it on them,
and then you're not killing.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
It, you know, you're just maiming it to the point
where it's not that correct. But he's gonna come back
ticked off the next time.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
I don't think so.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
I think that that would have been a deterrent, Like dang,
like they bust it up and lee Roy's ass man,
it's a deterrent.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
But they comes back with five friends and now they're
all dumping out right.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
I got but I got enough rounds for all of
all his friends. That's the problem for them.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
I think we might need a lethal option there.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Well, I don't know that we need lethal because if
they if getting hitting the ass with that that pellet
doesn't work, then I'll just hit them with some tear gas.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
So I was just like a skunk with it. Let's
just let's just let's just full go down this road
for a second. Because I also had an issue before
we left, all right. We had a deer that got
hit by a car that ended up near a property
and I'm calling I'm calling around because I'm like, all right,
there's there's a few options here. You can let nature
(03:18):
take its course, or you can call the township, the county,
the city. You know, someone you'd think like wildlife, like
someone's gonna be able to help out with this issue.
And I called the Sheriff's department and you kind of asked, like,
can you point me in the right direction? And then
the way he was no. The lady just goes, she
goes basically your sol you like, the nature has to
(03:41):
run its course on that. I said, well, you know, like,
I don't know that that's a great idea. We've got
young kids. I don't know that you own a bunch
of predators. We've we've seen a coyote out on the
property before, Like, I don't know if you want all that.
And she's like, yeah, I don't know how I tell
you to help out with that. So we call wildlife.
You know, they're not open. Over the course of a
weekend call back Monday, okay, we called the county, we
(04:04):
called the township and basically I'm not gonna say who
it was. I go, I get a hold of one
guy and the guy goes, yeah, oh, where's that deer
at I said, well, it's it's in a ditch like
near the entrance of the road, but not like like
you know, on the road. And he goes, yeah, pal,
let me tell you something.
Speaker 6 (04:26):
He goes, If that deer found some way of making
its way up there on that road. You catch what
I'm saying there, Pal, If that deer gets near that road,
let me tell you something, someone's gonna come right around
and pick it up.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
He goes.
Speaker 6 (04:40):
Now, if that deer happens to just stay in that ditch, he.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
Goes, I don't. I can't help you that path. That's
a that's a personal property issue. You're gonna have to
have to figure that thing out in your own And
I go, so, can you just repeat that one more time?
I just want to get this straight. I go, you
want or excuse me? I go, you mean, if this
dead carcass finds its way of moving, like if something
(05:09):
just a religious miracle happens and it just happens to
move up onto the road. You're telling me that, then
someone will come away to pick it up. I don't
have to worry about this. He goes, Yes, sir, that
is correct. I was like, okay, I go, well, I
appreciate your time. You've been the most helpful of anyone
that I've talked to you so far today, and I'll
(05:29):
just have to call back Monday. And figure this out more.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
I wish I knew you back then. I would have
told you swing around, didn't matter what time of shwing
around home depot, and you'd be good. My guy Jonas's
in laws would have came.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
And oh, by the way, by the way, hey, to
that point, brouh to that point. The first lady I
talked to with the Sheriff's office goes, because I said,
is there not like someone will grab it? She goes, well, sweetheart,
she goes, let me tell you if you don't know
the exact of when it got hit. She's like, I
(06:03):
can't really help you because she's like, there are people
who will come around and grab these things, but typically
in our case, if they're maimed and still alive, will
son someone who will put it out of its misery
and then they'll pick it up to take the meat,
but they have to make sure it doesn't have a
disease on it. I was like, wait a second. I
was like, you're telling me, like, you guys have people
who would just come up like basically pick up roadkill
(06:25):
and then use it for meat. And she goes, yes,
ma'am or yes, sir, that is correct, And I go
all right, Well, maybe I just need to find the
direct number to those people, because I'm sure because I
was like, I know what's happening in the last hour.
It was not then when I first went went went home,
and then I came back, it was there. And the
girls with my girls, they're like, go check on a dad.
(06:47):
I was like, nah, I've a hundred enough to know, Like,
I'm gonna let it lay there for a while because
if it is still alive, there's a chance it'll get
up and find its way. If it's not, you know,
eventually we can go back and grab it. Make sure
I go. The problem is gonna be if we wait too. Basically,
if you don't find kind of a sweet spot for
it to kind of go in there and make sure
it's dead and then get rid of it. Predators get after.
(07:10):
It's gonna get plucked out, the testings will be out.
It's probably a defecate everywhere. It's all that. Wait, So
how are you gonna get it on the road? Uh, well,
I'm gonna call today once the office opens up, and
I think there's actually the health department too, is supposed
to like kind of help handle these issues. So either
that or I'm gonna call LeVar after the show and
(07:31):
see if he's got a couple of guys.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
So I'm just telling you, bruh, I had at least
I had because I had a gate. I had one
of those type of gates when I lived in Maryland
where you know, you get impaled if you tried to
go over it.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
And I had a buck on there one time I had.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
I've gotten babies caught in the gate trying to run
through it, all kinds of different stuff, you see. I
just go right to home depot like as soon as
I see them go.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Why your eyes go like that, Jonas, what happened with
your eyes? Jody? I go, hey, I go to home
deep on and be like you do you want they?
I got buck, you know.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
And then after the first few times they like they
see me coming, they'd be like another one, yeah, they
will be there, all right. They come straight through that
thing be gone, and a couple of men, and I
mean not one time it was a big ass buck too.
They came and got him. They unimpelled him and took
him out of there quick. There was one time the
(08:28):
deer was still alive. You know.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
The secret menu hobbyers.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Well, venison is not bad. It's not a bad deal.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
Hey, hang on your fence. You don't know what about
you don't know how it got there. Like like you said,
they just got to make sure that get to go
free free range.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
That's it's halfway over the fence. It's optimistic about this. Yeah,
there was range.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
There was a baby there that was caught in in
the fence when we were on our way home, and
my kids.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Were like, Dad, Dad, save it, save it. There's like
the whole bunch of them are on the road hollering.
He's hollering. Everybody's hollering.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Ah.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
Right, So I get out and I grabbed I grabbed
the two the two rails or whatever that the poles
that the deer has caught in, and I screamed real loud.
My kids were like, Daddy, Superman. The deer got out,
(09:34):
the deer goes running out.
Speaker 7 (09:35):
They're like, it's saved them, he saved.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
It wasn't that hard, but I made it seem like
it was the hardest thing to do in the world
that I won that day.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Just know that Daddy won.
Speaker 4 (09:47):
Yeah, speaking of deer, And then the deer ran off,
and a coyote.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
And just got knocked off. Two minutes later, there was one.
I tried to give it water. It got up out
of here in the middle of me trying to give it.
Why I was just trying to like keep him, keep him,
keep him up, keep him alive. Here you got up
out of there. Yeah, I will.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Depending on the other chilling, they'll come up and get you.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
I didn't know.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Oh, I'll bust a cap in their ass though. See
that's the thing I was bearing arms on that property.
I'll destroy you now. I'll try to help you, but
if you give me some problems, I will I will
exercise my right to to go ahead and knock you down.
So yeah, better you let me help you rather than
me not help you in the other way, you know
(10:34):
what I mean.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
If you know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
I was just confused, like and you said, uh, because
you mentioned like Jonas's and laws home deeper, I didn't
know what that had to.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
Do with the deer, like, and they'll come get it. Yeah,
they'll come get it. But we had it, we had
an we had an animal control in Maryland, you know
you animal control. They'll come get it. They'll come destroy
it too. Like if if the animal can't be saved.
They will destroy it and take it to the woodchip
(11:04):
or leave it. Yeah, they throw it in the woods.
Yeah they will. They'll drag it to the woods. The
one I had to get destroyed, they had to drag down.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
They drug it.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
I had forty forty some acres, so they just drug
it to where there was just woods.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
You know, So you know it is what it is.
Speaker 5 (11:20):
By the way, do you know how many people listening
right now are mortified?
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Hey?
Speaker 3 (11:25):
Man, so I like work sometime. Them them raccoons. It
wasn't a bad story, wasn't a sad story. It looked
like they just courting each other. Like the one was
like in the water, like screaming like ahha. The other
one was standing there like trying to like mess with it.
I thought it was drowning at first. Then I realized
once we was watching them for for a couple of seconds,
(11:45):
it's like, man, they they rapping. They're on a date
right now.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
They're smouting. No, they were. They were come back good time.
Speaker 5 (11:53):
If there's anything there they liked, they'd come back. Because
my nephew had chickens, like had a whole chicken coop
and one raccoon came to sniff it out.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
And then within three days.
Speaker 5 (12:05):
Those chickens were annihilated because like three or four of them,
and they came back for more because they got a
taste of the blood. And then one was hanging out
in the tree, and then he wasn't hanging out in
the tree anymore.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
You know, it's crazy what happened.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
You know, how might I might have to go ahead
and just deter them. Yeah, we'll see what happens next time.
If I see if I hear them hollering like that
and playing in my pool like that and I wasn't
invited to hang out with them, I might bust a cat.

buying should be all right. So congratulations to everybody who
advanced in the NCAA tournament this weekend. We are going
to pay off this tease. Somebody in the NFL has
(13:00):
found their guy. I did want to mention this so
Amir Khan, who was the star of the opening round.
So he's on his way to NC State with Will
Wade and this guy made reportedly over six figures in
nil money. Whether it was a tax company, a Buffalo
(13:24):
wing company, there were some other sponsors that were out there.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
So all he had to do.
Speaker 5 (13:30):
Was hold a boom box with a strap walk out
before the game, shoulder strap, and he's making sick careful
you know.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
You know, straps is a different that's just different terminology
for straps, you know what I mean? Yeah, that shoulder strap.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
You know, and he's getting paid.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
How about that?
Speaker 4 (13:49):
I mean, look, I don't have a problem with it.
I would just ask all those people who are spending
all the nil money on this young man, like, why
not the players? I mean, no disrespect to the kid,
but if the basketball team isn't good enough, he's not highlighted,
Like if they're a crappy basketball team and he's leading
(14:11):
him out with a boombox, no one cares. So it's like,
can we not, Like are the players getting some of
this too? I mean some of those players are also
going to follow their coach to NC State and it
stinks for McNeese, but that's just the reality of where
college sports are at. And I just kind of go
back to him not against the young man earning it.
(14:32):
I'd hope he's sharing it with the players because again,
like and this isn't taking away from what a manager does.
He works his tail off, I'm sure, but have we
gotten to the point now where we've kind of missed
the substance of what makes March madness. What makes his
story great is that he's a manager who walks out
(14:55):
with a boombox and wraps maybe does or does not
say the I don't know. You can be the judge
of that. You can read his lips. But he's the
one getting the deals. It's like the manager of the
bull Like if Michael Jordan, all right, if Michael Jordan
was during this era, Like, would would Michael be like
(15:16):
mj would he be able to create his own shoe?
Or are we given the manager of UNC when he
was there or the manager of the Chicago Bulls when
he was there the nil deal? Like what's happening here?
Is this like the most ass backwards thing we've ever seen.
Speaker 5 (15:32):
I Mean, if there's so much extra money to throw
around that you're giving that guy money, Like, yeah, it
does seem like there would be a little left for
some other people.
Speaker 4 (15:40):
And by the way, if you're McNeice and you're like
any people who are part of it who are giving
him money, maybe you give it to players. Maybe they
don't leave to go to NC State, Like maybe that
actually could could have happened. He keep some of those
players there with you instead of them leaving to go
to NC State supposedly to get more money. I just look,
it's one of the cool stories of March madness. I
actually I picked up on this earlier this year. But
(16:04):
we're going way over the top with the whole aura
thing and all that. Yeah, their aura lasted for what
around they got in the second round and that was it.
We'll just call it what it is on fire, Yes, exactly,
And let's be honest. They they played a team in
(16:24):
Clemson that played its worst half of basketball all year,
maybe the worst half of basketball. And Clemson fans, could
you know, chime in on this, maybe the worst half
of basketball we've seen in the last decade. That was
how atrocious the first half was versus McNeese and they
turned around and scored what fifty four points in the
(16:45):
second half, which is like a break neck pace I
mean covered by the way based on the liveline that
I saw a half, but damn near came back to
tie it up taking an over overtime. So I know
we're making a bunch of this, but like, come on, man,
we can we help out the players. Can we help
out those guys, the guys that actually got McNeice there
in the first place. Yeah, And look, maybe I'm wrong.
(17:06):
Maybe someone's gonna come home and say, no, man, he's
sharing it with them or is. I haven't seen any
of that, Like, I haven't seen him come out and
say that. I haven't seen anything that states that any
of these McNeese players are getting six figure type nil deals.
And they're the reason he's in They're the reason he's
there in the first place. Without them, he's walking out
with a boombox solo or without them having success. No
(17:31):
one cares if you don't win. No one cares when
you walk out with a boom box rapping to pick
your rap or pick your hip hop so or whatever.
No one cares if you're a crappy basketball team. I'm
sure there's plenty of teams that have some similar walk
out something else going on that weren't very good this year,
and their guy, their manager's not getting paid ANIL deals.
(17:53):
I mean especially you know if they may or may
not have said the word. You know there's that too.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
I'm just glad he got the money. You know, I'm
glad he got it. In the n I L.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
I think that these guys when they do services, they're
they're tremendously undervalued. And you know what, it's it's about
time guys like Jonas Knox get recognized, appensated for the
things that they bring to the table. Just when these
athletes just are so they get so far ahead of
(18:23):
themselves that they just think that all the money needs
to go to them, And you know what, what about
the people that next next thing? You know, now, now
we're going to get the training room involved. You know,
we're gonna get the student trainers. We're going to get
them paid. Like we're going to get a n I
L deal of them taping the ankles and stretching them
out and you know, rolling out the I bands. You know,
(18:46):
we're gonna turn those into NI L deals of content.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
I like this. I like where this is going.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
That's That's what I'll say, damn, shame on these athletes
for thinking that all the nil money is supposed to
be for them. You know, because name, image and likeness
doesn't say athlete, name, image and likeness. It says your name,
image and your likeness. So if you're building that that
that value brand, if you're building that brand, you sill
not brood it for you.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
You got to build the brand.
Speaker 4 (19:15):
So when they go to Nancy State and he's walking
out with a boom box and they stink like this year, well.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
He's got to just keep He's just got to keep
you know, his oria crap. Then he's just got to
keep evolving because whether it takes a national you know,
footprint with what he's doing because of the success or
lack thereof of the team, he still can grow that
brand locally and still be monetizable in the local market.
(19:43):
So you just keep your head down and you keep
pushing forward, and you keep building your brand, young sir,
And you know what, I'm happy for you six figures.
You go push for seven now, you know, and maybe
these guys learn from you and and they'll start doing
the same thing.
Speaker 5 (19:59):
I heard he could gotten more, but he was listening
to up on game on that boom box.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Oh yeah, oh, Dan, he must have heard them say
that Jonas Knox was up next and they tuned out.
It must have been that part where I said, yeah,
I know, Jonas is up next.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Anybody home, be sure to catch live editions of Two
Pros and a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar
Errington and Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern, three
am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 5 (20:34):
Speaking of NFL quarterbacks, it is time for our daily
check in on the latest with what the hell is
going on with Aaron Rodgers and who's he going to
sign with? Report came out over the weekend that Rogers
met with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Friday. It was like
a six hour visit or something along those lines. I
(20:55):
think Jeremy Fowler or ESPN pointed out that it was
such a serious meeting that Pittsburgh skipped Michigan's Pro Day,
which is a big deal for the Pittsburgh Steelers. So
everybody was there, GM coach, front office, like offensive coordinator,
everybody met with Rogers, and according to Mike Florio uh
(21:16):
talking with a source that it's a safe bet that
Rogers will eventually sign with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Now we
just wait around to see when that's gonna happen.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
So there's your your latest on the Aaron Rode.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
So they said that the agent advised his his client,
Aaron Rodgers to take his time. What they said like
two weeks or so. I think that that's what they said.
I mean, my my biggest question is I would pose
to you guys, like because that's it got me thinking
because we did say that, like Q you did mention
that last week that it's like he doesn't need to
(21:50):
be in a rush to sign with a team.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
But my my thoughts are, well.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
If that's the case, why is why is Pittsburgh handling
it this way that that would be like, what's the
reason for waiting? Is it because you don't want to
report in? If you don't want to report in, just
say I don't want to report in. I'll sign with you,
but I just don't want to report in. Is it
(22:16):
you're trying to hold out for more money? How does
that work? Because is he in that much of a
demand where waiting is going to add more money.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
As as time passes on.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
I just I'm just curious as to what is the
thought process behind waiting. I mean, what's what's left to
look at, what's less left to monitor or be aware
of in terms of where he's going to go play.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
I think the quick answer to that would be that
the off season has not really started yet, so he's
he's not missing out on really anything at this point.
So you know, until the offseason training activities begin, and
really there's a couple of phases, right we all know,
there's the workout phase. We talked about the workout bonuses
(23:06):
that some players have in their contract for that portion
of it that extends into the practices and all that.
Until that time frame comes, you know, then you're probably
looking at a little bit more of a deadline being
on this. But again, you know, those training sessions occur
and you still haven't drafted your rookies, some of which
are going to be starters, you know, some of which
(23:28):
are going to be prime contributors on special teams and
backups on offense or defense. So when you really think
about it, like he's played forever outside of learning a
new system, which you know he did degrees of that,
you can make the case whether it was during his
time in Green Bay or even being with the New
York Jets, I think he's gonna be fine. Like he's
(23:50):
gonna be way ahead where the rookies are at. So
looking at it from that standpoint again, I keep going
back to the draft being in essence the deadline, because
at that point, the Steelers could have a player drop
to them. They could make a decision on a veteran guy,
which that's a whole other conversation with who still is
out there based on some reports. But I think, look,
(24:13):
if his agent's telling him to be patient, and Rogers
has talked to the team, he's talked to the coaching staff,
which we've seen from reports, and they're all on the
same page, it's kind of like, all right, well, you know,
like what's the rush for any of them at this point?
I mean, free agency is still kind of open, even
though it's almost done, at least for some of the
big names. It wasn't a huge free agent class, and
(24:35):
so that being said, like they weren't changing the trajectory
of this team through that. It took a trade. I mean,
DK Metcalf's been the biggest thing that's happened to this team,
and that was via a trade. So I look at
him to say, I understand why there's no reason to
rush into making this decision. I think there's a lot
(24:56):
of players who when they're trying to decide if they
want to keep playing or retire, it drags on into
this to some degree. And I think, again, this is
about his legacy, and this is probably about whether or
not he wants to go and do a situation and
figure out if he wants to do it again, and
if he can actually win doing it. I don't think
he took the Jets opportunity thinking like everything was going
(25:19):
to go the way it did, right, I mean, looking
back on it, if he would have known this, like
he probably would have went to the New York Jets,
I'm gonna have taken up a different opportunity, maybe just retired.
So I don't think he wants to make that same
mistake twice, and I don't think he would if he
went to the Pittsburgh Steelers. But at the same time,
I don't think he's rushing to make that decision to
go there. Either.
Speaker 5 (25:41):
Take your time, you know what I mean, Like, let's
just have this, we could do it, babe. Take your
time do it tonight. Okay, you know, give somebody something
to talk about. You know, something wrong with that? I mean,
you know how long we had to sit there and
debate whether or not the Cowboys were going to give
Dak Prescott a contract during COVID. We been through worse
in sports media, all right, Like we went through COVID.
(26:04):
We went through all that crap. Nothing going on, Like,
just let love Rogers take his time, He'll make a decision.
He's probably gonna end up in Pittsburgh. And if you're
the Steelers, what other options you got?
Speaker 2 (26:15):
Well, if you're Aaron Rodgers, what other options do you have?
You know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (26:19):
I think they're both in the same situation here, and
I would ultimately say the situation is.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
Best for both sides.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
So if they met with them, and they had the conversation,
and they you know, didn't go to a Michigan pro day,
because that can be offensive, right for a team to
not show up to a blue blood school for their
pro day and miss out on seeing the prospects and
having that time with the coaching staff and with with
(26:50):
the players. For them to do this meeting, so they
showed the level of importance and just the way that
it looks with with the way they brought in DK Metcalf.
They they have pickings, they have Friar Move. I mean,
this is this is uh, this is a wide receiving
(27:10):
corps that could turn out to be one of the
you know, top tandems in in the National Football League.
And you also will you know, have more opportunities for
Friar Move to to get involved and and take maybe
another step forward and being an elite tight end as
well in the league. So I think it's a great
opportunity for for Aaron Rodgers. And like I said, you know,
(27:34):
a lot of people are saying, you know, kind of
like sloppy seconds.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
This is this is a horrible thing.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
For for Pittsburgh to be in a situation like this.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Uh you know, oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
I heard I heard I mean I'll throw I heard
Harmon said, and I uh heard Harmon said, Uh.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
So he gets he gets the first boy because he's
the top of the bracket?
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Is that? Why not not? Not Hartman? Harmon different? You
know that? Damn. The interesting thing is.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
My guy, I feel like there's a lot of people
that feel is though Minnesota was was definitely the destination
that that Aaron Rodgers wanted, and then now how do
you handle things from here?
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Which I think that the.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
Positives and all of this is is that the Steelers
are still in need, and they're not too far off
from being a more competitive team, and Aaron Rodgers needs
a team, and we don't know how far off from
being what he can be in terms of a positive
contributor to a team. We just know he did finish
out his season strong with the Jets, and in the
(28:50):
right situation, I think everybody would assume that Aaron Rodgers
comes and he has a comeback year type of year,
come back player type of year for for a team,
and I think that the Steelers will be the ideal
place for that. So, you know, it'll just be interesting
to see how quickly it plays out.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
You know, I'm curious to see if they're all full
of piss and vinegar if Rogers signs in Pittsburgh. Roethlisberger,
because he's not a big fan of other quarterbacks that
have tried to take over in Pittsburgh. Mason Rudolph got
drafted and Roethlisberger took time out of his off season
to call into some sports radio show on the weekend
to criticize the move if they land Rogers, who's got
(29:30):
the credentials he's got. I'm just curious how Ben Roethlisberger
is going to handle that because he's not shy about
airing out the organization and what's going on with the organization.
So we will wait to see and if there's any
news on Aaron Rodgers signing in Pittsburgh, we will have
it covered here on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
Because it'll happen this early in the day. You know,
well I wouldn't. We'll get that breaking news. Damn, you
got to be awake to make some signing. Yeah, it's
alarms is just going off while we all.
Speaker 5 (30:05):
You know, don't forget we were on the air when
when OJ died filling.
Speaker 4 (30:11):
In for DA. We were. I was in state college,
Yeah he wasn't.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
No.

Where would you go for spring break?
Speaker 2 (30:34):

people don't really know you all like that, which is
cool because you could go have a good time. Like

It sounds like you were hitting towards full grun.
Speaker 4 (33:17):
No grunges like he was a vampire not showering.
Speaker 3 (33:21):
You know, aren't like piercing people though, like grun that's grunge.
That's more grunge. Right, Like you were a mosh pitter.
You had like, you know, rings on all your fingers
and you would use them to punch people upside the head.
Speaker 5 (33:36):
It's different. That's different. You're you're confusing goth and grunge.
Grunge is flannel shirts.
Speaker 4 (33:44):
Uh, you know.
Speaker 5 (33:45):
Unkept hair, body odor a little questionable.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
Yeah, piercings.
Speaker 4 (33:52):
Gothic is more.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
That's that's the mash picking. Mosh pitting Goth isn't mosh pitting.
That's that's ath is.
Speaker 2 (34:00):
More like.
Speaker 3 (34:02):
Uh like you know sting, you know, like like the
wrestlers sting, Like they're not mosh pitting.
Speaker 2 (34:11):
They're they're more.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Or less like skateboarding maybe a little bit maybe acting.
Speaker 2 (34:16):
They're Thespians, you know, Thespians. Thank you, thank you, Lee.
I'll be hit y'all with little one job.
Speaker 3 (34:26):
Uh but anyways, I think God Goth they're not they're
not mosh pitting grun most pitts.
Speaker 4 (34:36):
Uh No, not really.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
Emo.
Speaker 5 (34:38):
Emo's like really desperate for uh, you know, attention, like
wants everybody to know that they're like, hey, I'm in
another place right now, even though I'm present, you know,
like those weirdos, It wasn't like that just uh, you know,
some queshionable thousand choice.
Speaker 4 (34:54):
That's actually a great way of describing it.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Like is it?
Speaker 4 (34:58):
Am I wrong? Like that's just how Emo do it?
One more time? Hey, listen, Like I know, I'm like present,
I'm somewhere else right now. Is that like while you
have a beanie on, even though it's like seventy five,
it's like a long beanie and like a really deep
V step through to put it on.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
It's just dumb, you know.
Speaker 4 (35:17):
And I wear my beanie because you know, I want
to stay warm but inside of cold, you know, because
I'm Emo.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
I think emos are are capable of mosh there at
mosh pitters. Emo is more on par with with grunge
if you ask really, I think so it's close.
Speaker 4 (35:36):
I think emails of the dudes gets knocked out in
those grunge pits.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
They might, they might, but they're like they're more punk,
like punk rocker type dudes, right, Like I got that
punk feel to them.
Speaker 5 (35:48):
They're like they're like vegan goths. Okay, okay, so it's
kind of like you're still married to.
Speaker 3 (35:58):
The goth thing like God, are goths mash pitting? I
don't think goths are mosh pitt.
Speaker 5 (36:04):
I don't think anybody really moshpits anymore, to be honest
with you, But historically, who did punks?
Speaker 4 (36:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (36:12):
Punks?
Speaker 3 (36:13):
Right?
Speaker 2 (36:13):
Rockers like grunge? Isn't that connected to grunge? I thought
it was. Maybe I had it wrong. I don't know,
maybe I.
Speaker 7 (36:21):
Had Big Four are emo, gothic, grunge and punk?
Speaker 4 (36:25):
Hm did you just AI that?
Speaker 1 (36:27):
Lee?
Speaker 4 (36:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (36:29):
Okay, thank you?
Speaker 4 (36:30):
By the way, Lee, would you say since AI has
come around, you've become exponentially better as a producer as
far as research?
Speaker 7 (36:39):
Uh, exponentially No, I mean maybe slightly.
Speaker 4 (36:45):
If we had this show ten years ago. I don't
think you're able to research as well as you do now.
And what is your AI of choice? By the way,
I really don't use it too often. I mean I
I'll I just use Thatchine but A I mean, yeah,
I don't need it. What about AI? I'll just say
maybe maybe that's part of the issues. You don't have
grock or chat GBT. I do.
Speaker 7 (37:06):
I do chat GPT once in a while.
Speaker 4 (37:08):
I actually have been used trying to use that a
little bit, like I think Grock's better. I think that's
the best of all of them.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
Really, I use chat GBT every day.
Speaker 4 (37:17):
Gros phenomenal Rocks.
Speaker 2 (37:22):
What's the difference, Well, chat GBT when.
Speaker 4 (37:24):
I when I've done some research on it, there are
some stuff like when I was looking at NFL off
season moves, it was blatantly didn't happen or like was
two years old, and like I said, like, that's not
from you know, this time period, and it was like,
you're right, we got that wrong. I was like, okay,
this is I mean, I'm glad there's like a human
element of it. But at the same time, I was like,
(37:45):
you've ruined my trust and you Chat GBT. I'm moving
on to Grock.
Speaker 5 (37:49):
Dang, you know, you know, Brady good point. We did
get that wrong, Like you're supposed to tell me.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
You know, I did do that on national radio guys,
Thank you check GBT for doing that to me. I
trusted you.
Speaker 4 (38:03):
I did no longer now I trust Lee, which and
here's the thing is, as our listeners know, if Lee
gets the wrong, we laugh about it, we have fun
with it, and it's bound to happen. It's a coin flip,
so it's more fun that way.
Speaker 3 (38:16):
But at least you could get away with it saying
that you trusted Lee to do it, because now Lee's
got to give you an explanation as to why he
violated your trust, which gives an entertainment value that our
audience can appreciate, you know.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
So there you go. It's a win win situation.
Speaker 5 (38:32):
Give a Lee credit though for this, Like I had
no idea that he still had lingering shoulder and wrist
issues from the fall New Orleans.
Speaker 2 (38:39):
He never really complained about that. Didn't complain about that.
Speaker 4 (38:42):
Like the knee that was scraped up at the super
Bowl that got gang green, he.
Speaker 2 (38:46):
Didn't complain about that either. He was wearing jeans the
next day with no bandage.
Speaker 4 (38:52):
It basically looked like a Civil War wound, and.
Speaker 2 (38:55):
He rubbed a different wound like that wasn't even the
original wound. He rubbed it on with a jeans. Why
you got all them old bloodstained.
Speaker 4 (39:04):
By you never changed his jeans. He wor jeans like
four or five days of the road.
Speaker 3 (39:08):
Just rubbing on the knee, Like Lee, your knee is
changing colors, bru like knees air what.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
Are you doing? I would blad a.
Speaker 7 (39:20):
We're taking like two or three this year and they're
piling up.
Speaker 2 (39:25):
Dang, that's crazy. I'm mortified of falling. I ain't gonna lie.
That's I'm scared the fall.
Speaker 3 (39:31):
Boy. I had a couple of close ones going down
the stairs. I do not want to fall. That's just
not what I want to deal with.
Speaker 2 (39:38):
Man.
Speaker 3 (39:39):
But if I were faded like Lee was, I don't
know how that would go. Like would I feel it?
I know I'm gonna feel it later, But in the moment,
how bad would it be? It's such an inconvenience to
have falls like that.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
Man.
Speaker 4 (39:51):
It's always better to have people fall for you.
Speaker 2 (39:54):
Oh wow, you know what I mean. Dang, thank you
shooting me. Thank you appreciate that, jeans, that's very nice.
Can we.
Speaker 5 (40:04):
Can we give a a little the cap to us
somebody who deserves I mean somewhat say an apology. I'll
just put it as some respect. The great John Calipari
had to sit there and listen to an ungrateful fan
(40:25):
base like Kentucky wear him out, mistreat him, bully him,
just the way they've talked about him delivering them a
national title. You know, which I mean seemed like it
was just yesterday, and now he decides to go elsewhere
(40:46):
and pursue a job elsewhere. He gets stark and saw
they're underdogs against Saint John's. Everyone just assumes that Rick
Patino is the better coach and he's going to take
his team places and John Calipari in Arkansas get it
done over the weekend. So congratulations a huge.
Speaker 4 (41:06):
I mean, you're not going to acknowledge that it was
against Saint John's, a higher seed, a team that was favored.
I'm not really sure why. Again, that was one of
the games and the matchups that look Arkansas's more talented team.
He brought a lot of those kids with him from
Kentucky hit a much bigger nil pool. I still think
Rick Patino is a better coach, and I understand that
John cala Parry is what second coach in men's NBA
(41:30):
history to excuse me, NCAA history, to take four different
teams of the Sweet sixteen. It had been what five
six years since he took a Kentucky team to the
Sweet sixteen. That's it's one of the reasons why they
kind of pushed him out. And there also comes a
point in time. I think in a coach is ten year,
where like sometimes things get stale, and I think that's
probably where his time was at. Kentucky and Arkansas felt
(41:51):
motivated and they have generated a lot of momentum behind him,
at least for this year. But Kentucky's in the Sweet
sixteen too, so that's the other side of the Like,
there's so many storylines off this matchup. The first thing
I'll say though, about that game, that was the worst
officiated game I think I'd seen in the tournament so far.
I mean the fouls. It was like forty two fouls
(42:14):
or something like that we're called It might have been
more than that, I think, I forget at what point
in the game I saw that flash up on the screen.
Speaker 2 (42:20):
I was like, my god, it was a rough watch.
Speaker 4 (42:22):
Well, I mean, look, and I understand it was a
physical game, but there were some inconsistencies. It felt like,
especially towards the end, the officials really wanted to like
make their legacy about being the officials that were a
part of this game. And there's a lot. I mean, look,
that was Brick Patino and John Caliperriy. We're two and
two versus each other. Coming into that matchup and Cali
Parry now is the you know, the advantagees you know,
(42:44):
three and two against Patino. But that was a game
that was huge, I think for either side and kind
of making their case as far as for Kentucky fans,
who was probably the better between the two. Again, I
still side with Patino, but at the end it put
even more pressure on Mark Pope and for Kentucky to
(43:04):
be able to get to that level, to the sweet sixteen,
if not even further, I mean either a higher seed
they had a better season, but still like that, like
where Kentucky goes as compared to where Arkansas goes. And
this is not the right way to look at it,
but it's how it's gonna be discussed. It's gonna send
Kentucky fans into a state of chaos if Arkansas makes
(43:28):
it further than Kentucky, Like they are gonna go nuts
if that takes place. And the sad thing about it is,
I don't know that Kentucky's as talented as Arkansas is
with all the players who left and all the players
cal braw with them. But if they play how they
did this past weekend, like to me, they're a final
four team. That's that's where I've got them going. Part
(43:48):
of that's more my heart than my head because I've
grown up kind of a Kentucky basketball fan. But we'll see,
we'll see what the rest of the tournament holds.
Speaker 3 (43:55):
Is Contino pool Louis out. That's that was like, that
was a big conversation coming out of the game. That's
your player of the year in the big Big East.
Why would you why would Patino pull him out and
never put him back in? I mean, he didn't answer
the question, but I'd ask you, guys, like if you
have your I know he said, he played his minutes
(44:17):
and there was four minutes left, but you needed you know,
you needed points.
Speaker 2 (44:22):
They weren't scoring.
Speaker 4 (44:22):
As many want to hear from slick Rick.
Speaker 2 (44:24):
Come on, let's hear it.
Speaker 4 (44:26):
You had RJ on the bench, you know for a
pretty long stretch at the end.
Speaker 2 (44:30):
Was that just because he just didn't wasn't making him
or was there something more to it?
Speaker 8 (44:35):
Played thirty minutes, It's a long time, so he was tired. No,
played thirty minutes and I went with other people. You
already know the answers, Roger, you're asking leading questions Geordy
know it, So don't ask leading question.
Speaker 4 (44:48):
Geordy know why he didn't play. Was there one play
with ARJ that made you sit him in the last
five minutes?
Speaker 8 (44:53):
You know, he was three for seventeen. You know, he
was oh for three, So you're answering your I'm not
going to knock one of my players.
Speaker 2 (44:58):
So so he pulled for poor play basically, That's that's
the reality of it is.
Speaker 4 (45:04):
Yeah, he hit a bad shooting night, and that happens.
Like we talked about that being the Achilles Heel for
any team that's a top seeded team or one of
the best teams in a sudden death tournament like that,
Like it only takes you know, one bat shooting night
and you're out, which is unfortunate. But I look, that's
the one thing where I look at it and say,
if I was going to disagree with anything, it's it's
(45:25):
like you got to give your star player a shot. Yeah,
you know, and I know think yeah, and I think
sometimes and here's the thing I would say about his
bad shooting night, and then this is just my blood,
you know, watching the game, watching how it played out,
I thought he took some bad shots. It wasn't even
that he was missing a lot of shots, which he was,
but it was compounded by the fact that they weren't
(45:47):
great shots. And if it was either deep into the
shot clock, I get that that's kind of thrown on you.
But there was times where it just it wasn't a
great decision, it wasn't a great shot. And I wonder
how much that played a factor or played a role
in two and him saying like, it's not even just
that he's having offshooting night, he's not even taking the
shots you're lik him to take in this instance.
Speaker 3 (46:09):
I mean, I respect, you know, obviously Rick Patinos is
going to be more in tune with what he needs
to do, you know, more than myself. But I just
felt like in that moment when you pull your best
player out with four minutes left, like you pull them
out and it's like, take a deep breath, are you
all right? Okay, get back in there, you know, to
(46:31):
hold him out, and the whole team was struggling to
score they they were, the whole team was struggling on offense.
So to me, I just felt like, you got to
put your best player back in and see if you
see it through, see if he can catch catch fire
for you down the stretch.
Speaker 5 (46:46):
I think there was more to it, because Lewis said
after the game something along the lines of, I didn't
play like a leader today, and I just wonder if
you might have popped.
Speaker 2 (46:57):
Off, and that might have been all so part of
the reason why he was left out.
Speaker 4 (47:02):
You think he popped off, You think that was what
it was.
Speaker 2 (47:04):
I think something.
Speaker 3 (47:05):
I wouldn't have kept him out for that either, Like,
let's handle that after the game. I mean, he he
played to lead off with well he played thirty minutes, Like,
come on, Rick, I know it's a leading question, and
you're right, it was a leading question. I get that
he was trying to lead you down somewhere where he
already knew the answers. You know, he felt like he
was playing poorly. But I still don't feel like that
(47:28):
was total justification. So to your point, Jonas, there could
have been something more to it that wasn't being discussed,
that maybe there was an idea of what the relationship
could have been.
Speaker 2 (47:40):
Maybe that could have played a part in it.
Speaker 4 (47:42):
It can't just be well, he had a bad shooting night,
so did everybody on the team.
Speaker 2 (47:45):
Everybody by the.
Speaker 4 (47:47):
Way, that was one of the worst shooting performances by
both teams in the tournament. They missed, mister, watch everybody did.
And going back to like another apple with this earlier
and to your point, LeVar like like keep the guy
in there, eventually help him work it out of it.
I mean, I remember Tim Hardaway, like back in the
(48:07):
day from the Miami Heat. Dude, that guy if he
was having a bad shooting night, you know, because he
just keeps shooting and like eventually law of averages, like
he would go shoot his way out in.
Speaker 2 (48:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (48:17):
But you know, I look at Braden Smith, the point
guard for Purdue, and to go back and watch their
high point matchup, their opening matchup, he struggled, And I'm
sitting there watching with my pops, watching with Chopper, and
I was kind of hyping him up going into it.
I'm like, hey, like Tonzo had a lot of great
things to say about him, and you know, he's he
was like over six seven eight, like in the stretch
(48:40):
of what we were when we were watching the game,
and he's like, man, he just can't buy a bucket tonight.
And and the reality is Painter still left him in
He wasn't going to take him out. He's that integral
to his team, and I think when you have a
star player like that, you have to allow him to
find other ways of being able to get points or
getting the basket. And what he ended up doing. He
found ways to get layups towards the end as they
(49:00):
started to distance themselves, and he found ways again to
the free throw line, and he ended up, you know,
hitting a few free throws that I think helped a
little bit towards the end too, and him getting getting
back into a rhythm. So that was the one thing
I think was questionable by Patino in the end. I'm
still not sure it was going to make a difference,
Like I just think Arkansas was the more talented team
and they were going to make a play in the
end to win that game.
Speaker 5 (49:21):
Uh leah quickly for the people that weren't with us
earlier in this the uh standings on the bracket Challenge
on Fox Sports Radio dot.
Speaker 2 (49:30):
Com, we need a whole segment to get to your
rank it.
Speaker 4 (49:36):
Did LeVar fill his out?
Speaker 3 (49:38):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (49:39):
Yeah, Var you're.
Speaker 2 (49:40):
There too, so seventh.
Speaker 9 (49:41):
Yeah, you're in seventh right now. Brady's in second at
fifty four points. LeVar you're at forty six points at seventh.
You had Yukon in the final.
Speaker 2 (49:48):
I'm in good.
Speaker 3 (49:48):
I'm in good. I'm in good, a good position. I
did have Yukon making it.
Speaker 4 (49:53):
Making it thought he was picking the women's tournament.
Speaker 7 (49:58):
Well, and then of course I think.
Speaker 3 (50:00):
That's so funny. I mean, a lot of my teams
are still alive. I think only one slot is not
filled with a team that I've chosen, regardless of how
we got in there. I have a lot of teams
still alive.
Speaker 9 (50:13):
Does Michigan State winning it all against Alabama and Kentucky's
there in the final four. I did mention Yukon in there,
so no Yukon he had. You had Yukon and Saint
John's not in the final four though the Elite eight.
My final four are still available. My final four in
my championship, you had Yukon.
Speaker 2 (50:34):
I had Yukon.
Speaker 4 (50:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (50:35):
No, No, I have Michigan State winning.
Speaker 7 (50:37):
You have Michigan.
Speaker 3 (50:38):
You have Yukon in the final final four? Oh oh, okay,
well I have three. I have three teams still alive.
Speaker 2 (50:46):
Go I have four.
Speaker 9 (50:48):
By the way, if you guys want to know what
I'm doing, get to break only one point behind you,
buddy to break?
Speaker 2 (50:57):
Yeah, I gotta get the cares. Oh lovely, No, no
one cares.
Speaker 4 (51:02):
Would you have the drink last night?
Speaker 2 (51:03):
Though?
Speaker 4 (51:04):
Before you get a break?
Speaker 7 (51:04):
I had read one. I had a little pino there
you go.
Speaker 9 (51:10):
Oh and then I had a pin not a not
a Mitchellata had a mango cart with some tahin earlier
than this.
Speaker 4 (51:16):
Sounds delicious, it was very refreshing, Lee, Was that it
for the night? Did you have a little bit more?
Speaker 2 (51:20):
That was it for the night?
Speaker 4 (51:22):
Okay?
Speaker 7 (51:23):
But I did see that beat Box for twenty dollars.
Speaker 2 (51:24):
And that was insane.
Speaker 4 (51:26):
You're such a lie.
Speaker 3 (51:27):
So that's the reason why you didn't get it is
because it was twenty dollars. If it was cheaper, you
would have grabbed. I just saw it at a bar
and I was interested. I said how much is the
beat box? And they said twenty dollars and I thought
that was ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (51:39):
How much they normal markup?
Speaker 7 (51:40):
Well, you get at the liquor store for like five bucks.
Speaker 5 (51:44):
By the way, they're a sponsor. I was watching a
bowling on FS one last week and beat Box one
of the sponsors there.
Speaker 9 (51:52):
Yeah, they're get there, Yeah, Lee, Look you've started. Oh,
they were at the Lorena sent me a picture. They
were at the festival. She was that they had a
big loud.
Speaker 2 (52:01):
Yeah, big stowling loud. Lonzo Ball was there tugging. He
was real thugged out on stage with all of his
homies you know from uh, you know from Chin o' hills.
Speaker 4 (52:14):
Yeah. Brady texted me He's like, man, check this guy out.
He's thugging and bugging.
Speaker 2 (52:18):
Thugging and bugging.
Speaker 4 (52:19):
That sounds like something I'd sack dozen la far and
then yeah.
Speaker 1 (52:22):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (52:23):
Then for the record, Jonas has two teams left in
his final four. He's got Duke in Houston, both Saint
John's and Texas and m my guy buzz Whims unfortunately eliminated,
but uh yeah, he's got two left. Why should I
be held accountable for bad play? Mostly because you talked
so much trash to our listeners before the termament started.
(52:43):
That is, I believe you said you would publicly beat anyone.
Speaker 2 (52:47):
You did your bracket, you did, and you're like almost
near last place.
Speaker 9 (52:52):
Yes, speaking of our listeners, shout outs to Gary Anderson
at the top with fifty eight and fifty seven.
Speaker 7 (52:59):
Yeah, Gary Anderson, the.
Speaker 4 (53:00):
Kicker, Harry Henderson the kicker.
Speaker 7 (53:02):
Sweet, it's perfect.
Speaker 2 (53:04):
We don't know that for certain, do we?
Speaker 4 (53:07):
No?
Speaker 3 (53:07):
No?
Speaker 4 (53:07):
Hey, Lee, could you check what is my avatar for
my bracket challenge?
Speaker 7 (53:12):
I can't make it out, but maybe it's because I'm
not looking close enough. What is that avatar?
Speaker 4 (53:17):
Could you try zooming in a Is it possible?
Speaker 7 (53:20):
Because I had it on my phone and I can't.
Speaker 4 (53:22):
Let's let's do this quickly then, Lorenda, could you please
play some like Jeopardy music for us? Oh no, we'll
all take a stab at.
Speaker 2 (53:29):
What this is here?
Speaker 4 (53:31):
We go all right, leave all your first stuff. It's
a recent event that has taking place, a recent event
that in the sports world.
Speaker 3 (53:40):
Okay, that's that's a good clue. In the sports world
the super Bowl, No Jonas, it goes to you.
Speaker 4 (53:51):
Notre name winning the Orange Bowl. That is incorrect, Lee.
Speaker 2 (53:54):
Last track.
Speaker 7 (53:56):
Sorry, I'm holding it up. We're looking at it, rand,
isn't it?
Speaker 2 (54:01):
It's I didn't get.
Speaker 7 (54:03):
What it's Tracy Morgan.
Speaker 4 (54:10):
Let me tell you something right now, man, Okay, little done?
All right? You know that that damn bloody knows food poisoning.
Speaker 3 (54:24):
Hey, he really was up in the hospital, like plugged
up though, like maybe something did really go wrong, you know,
and was maybe just self induced, Like maybe something was
really going wrong. All right, he's feeling better.
Speaker 4 (54:38):
What a class act.
Speaker 3 (54:40):
I'm glad that you wasted no time making that his deal,
like like too soon, Like is it to son to
make that your avatar? It was, well, my thought was
this bracket and I could be puking up all of
the floor.
Speaker 2 (54:55):
So okay, wow, alright, that makes sense.
Speaker 4 (54:59):
