Two Pros and a Cup of Joe, Fox Sports Radio,
Navar Arrington, Jonas Knox with you here. No Brady Quinn,
but in honor of b Q, it is still a
football Friday here on Fox Sports Radio, and we are
going to get into the latest on Deshaun Watson. Was
there some negotiating on a punishment we'll talk about that.
Was there some shenanigans at the top of the NBA Draft.
(00:21):
We will have that discussion for you here. Somebody has
a bold prediction for their second year in the NFL,
a major decision in the world of college football. We've
also got the scraps, We've got over unders, we've got
in case you missed it, and we've got you It's
all coming up next year on a Friday edition of
Two Pros and a Cup of Joe Fox Sports Radio.
(00:43):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio. Yeah, and we got
some shenanigans to start things off. Somebody in ca hoots
with somebody else in the world of sports. We'll get
into all that for you here coming up in just
a couple of moments from now. It's Two Pros and
Up at Joe Fox Sports Radio. LaVar Arrington, Jonas knocks
(01:03):
with here on FS are no Brady Quinn. He will
be back with us again coming up on Monday at
six am Eastern time, but it will be Sticks and
I taking you all the way up until nine am
Eastern time six o'clock Pacific. You can hang out with
us is always on the I Heart radio app. You
can find us on hundreds of affiliates all across the
country and wherever the hell you are making us a
part of your Friday morning. We appreciate you doing so. Uh, Sticks,
(01:26):
how we feeling here on a Friday. I'm feeling real
smooth man? Oh yeah, yeah, I'm feeling real smooth. How smooth?
Like real smoothing? Almost like the Dollar Shave Club six
blade razor, which brings noticeably smooth shaves with six stainless
steel blades for swift hair removal and a lubricating strip
that keeps saying smooth. Dollar Shave Club razors are sold
of Dollar Shave Club dot Com or in stores. How
(01:48):
about it. We're getting this thing careful. Yeah, you gotta be.
You gotta be careful there. But you know a lot
of people think that, um, you know, even though Brady
is out, that we're just going to ignore what day
of the week it is. Uh, and and they're probably thinking,
you know, as you look at the calendar and you
see that it's June going into July, and there's no
(02:10):
real NFL coming up anytime soon, we're all kind of
waiting and we might have you know, more information later
on in the show about Deshaun Watson and whether or
not he's going to be suspended and what that's gonna
look like. So people are thinking, oh, does that mean
you guys aren't going to do what we think you
normally do here? Oh, I mean I didn't think we
were going to do without you. It's a football Friday,
(02:31):
a football Friday, and in the honor of Brady Quinn
who was not here, little football Friday. Yeah, spinning, Yeah,
so it is. It is a football Friday here on
Fox Sports Radio as tradition, every single Friday, as we
(02:53):
closed up the week here and so of course it
would be only appropriate to open up a football Friday
with the NBA Draft. So let's let's get right into
it here. Um, congratulations to Paula Bankro, who is the
number one pick of the Orlando Magic. Um. You know,
life changing moment, I know, LaVar. You've been there, You've
(03:15):
you've been drafted high before. Yeah, but this is uh
kind of a cool moment that point nine percent of
us will never ever truly understand. But you're one of
the guys who actually gets it, one of the guys
who knows at the moment. It's pretty cool, man. It's
a it's a dream recognized. You work so hard for
so long, so you know, when you're you're sitting there
(03:40):
and you're waiting for you waiting for them to call
your name, it's it's just it's a it's a pretty
surreal moment. You know. I thought about all the emotions
that would possibly take place when if they called my
name during the draft and you just you just don't know,
you just don't know how you going to feel in
(04:01):
that moment. I thought that I'd be overwhelmed with emotion,
probably would start crying all over the place, um out
of joy and happiness. And then when they called my name,
it just was like it was like a sense of
let's go. Like it turned into like a real intense feeling,
like I was like almost like I was ready to play.
(04:22):
Like it put me in like a game playing mode
when they called my name. So when I was walking
to the stage to go meet Roger uh Paul Taglabu,
it was it was like I was literally walking out
into the arena to go perform. So anyways, you know,
congratulations to all the guys I got got drafted that
(04:45):
that we're able to um realize that dream. But you know,
the one thing that you do realize in those moments, Jonas,
is that it's very short lived because because now you
really have to take on the weight and the understanding
of you. You've become that investable for for a company,
(05:09):
and there's with with that investment comes a whole lot
of pressure. Yeah, and it's also uh and you realize, God,
if I don't deliver, I'm gonna be viewed at, you know,
beyond one of those top ten guy you know the
word I hate the most bust list or like that
whole that whole thing, and then the narrative is going
to be written about you for the rest of you.
And I think a lot of those guys carry that
(05:30):
with them the rest of their lives. I mean, look,
Sam Booie was a great player in college, but the
fact that he was taking ahead of Michael Jordan's and
then you saw what happened. It just he's got to
carry that with him forever like that, that's never gonna
leave him. He's always going to be viewed at as
as the guy who went, you know before Michael Jordan's
(05:52):
in Portland was criticized for it, and so you just
you think about all of that, and that's why, you know,
when when you think about the pressure and how much
going on, I could totally understand why that there would
be so much. But that's also that's also a badge
of honor though. I think once you get done playing
the game and you realize the magnitude of being good
(06:14):
enough to to be drafted where you're drafted at. I mean,
I was in the same draft class as Tom Brady,
you know, so there are a lot of guys that
went before Tom Brady in that draft. I had to
live with that, you know that they were taken before
Tom Brady. But the reality of it is is that
(06:34):
in that moment, at that moment, everybody that went in
front of Tom Brady was considered to be better than
Tom Brady for the team that took you know that
that player. So for me, I I carry it as
a distinction of you know what, like, at that point
in time, it is what it is, It was what
it was. I don't I don't look at it as
(06:55):
I like, you know, I didn't have the type of
career anywhere near some of the guys that I was
in the draft with that went after me. But at
that moment in time, I was the highest rate of
player in that draft class. And that's a distinction that
for good or forbad. That still is what it is,
that still exists. So you just take it at face value.
(07:16):
And also it's it's about where you get drafted. And
I know that people kind of throw that out there,
and I feel like everybody knows that, but they forget
about it. When you know, something comes up about a
player who doesn't deliver early on in their career and
it's like, oh my god, you know what an awful pick.
It's like, okay, we we know. Maybe it's not the pick,
maybe it's not the player, maybe it's a situation. And
(07:39):
so like you you look at like players that are
that are deemed as uh, you know, wow, they weren't successful,
they were busts. Like I just don't think it's a
black and white conversation. I think there's more to it.
You know, a situation dictates everything, and who the hell
knows if Tom Brady goes and gets drafted in in
the first round to another organization, probably doesn't have the
(08:01):
same storyline and the same career that he had. Like
it just it's all about where you go and where
you end up. And I think that plays into it.
And it's it's like people know that, they acknowledge it,
but then when the discussion comes about the player not delivering,
we don't really want to look at that. We just
want to look at, you know, that player singularly and say, well,
you know, they just they weren't what they were drafted
(08:21):
to be and uh and and things didn't work out
for him, and that's on them. It's like, come on, man,
I mean a lot of hypotheticals, and I mean it's
a it's it's a it's a good perspective, it's a
it's a good take. But it is really just all
about perspectives, right, I mean, if you think about it,
(08:41):
there's the Barry Sanders of the world. You know, they
didn't have anything, but yeah, it's considered one of the
greatest of all time and was wildly you know productive,
they're they're they're really you gotta look at it is.
There's really no excuse when talking about being on the
(09:02):
pursuit of greatness. Sometimes it happens in your favor and
sometimes it doesn't, you know, but you take on the
you take on the challenge of it, and things happen,
right Injuries happen, Coaching changes happen, you know, better coaching
from other teams happened. You know, better players against you
(09:24):
on other teams happened. I mean, there's just a lot
of different factors that play into why players don't have
the type of success that they might have been looked
at to have during the course of well when they
got drafted. So I don't I don't ever look at,
you know, my career. I certainly did not have anywhere
(09:45):
near the type of career that I would have liked
to have had in the in the pro level. While
it was productive, it wasn't as productive as I like,
even if we weren't winning. You know, I would have
liked to have have a cheve that achieved more and
and meaning achieved more for longer. Like my trajectory was
(10:07):
good and then it it dropped off of a cliff right,
Like it was like my rookie year, it was like
it was all right, and then my second year, I
became one of the top defensive players you know, in
the in the game. And that that was for a
three year period of time. I just needed to keep
going and I and I wasn't, you know, for one
(10:28):
reason or another, I wasn't able to continue on on
that trajectory. But I don't make any excuses about it.
And I don't believe I had a Hall of Fame.
I know I didn't have a Hall of Fame NFL career,
and that's something that you have to live with. That's
probably the toughest thing to live with, is when you're
you're so good at every level. You know, coming out
(10:48):
of high school, I was the highest rated player coming
out of high school. You know, one to Parade All
American Player of the Year award, you know, the Downtown
Bobby Dott Award. You know, when you're talking about like
being being decorated, I was pretty decorated coming out of
high school. I was pretty decorated coming out of college,
and at one point in time, I was pretty decorated
(11:12):
as as a pro player. But you just know, when
you get drafted, your your opportunity is to play a
professional game, get paid the king's ransom, oh for for
a game that children play, and you live pretty good.
And if you're able to put those things in perspective,
(11:32):
like those guys I just got drafted for the NBA,
it's even it's even more intense because you're talking about
what is a sixty draft picks. Yeah, I mean, that's
that is That is just dumb, stupid, ridiculous to think
that you could be one of sixty people in the world,
(11:53):
not not just America, in the world. You're your sixty
of the best of of that sport at this point
in time. So I think you just take it in
and you take it at face value. But I think
you ultimately, you know, you embrace the fact that you're
going to have to work, and you're going to have
(12:16):
to work at a level where it's almost like an
obsession for the sport in order to live up to
the expectation that comes with being drafted so high. It's
almost like you have to give up really like almost everything,
having a life, Like it's crazy. I was talking to
Greg Lloyd. I interviewed Greg Lloyd yesterday. Yeah, he's my
(12:38):
favorite football player of all time. Like that was who
I patterned my my game after. That's why I admire
him so much. And just listening to the way he trained.
I thought I trained hard, like I really did. I
thought that I did a lot of things, like I
trained two or three times a day. I would get up,
I would I would run, I would do fundamentals midday,
(13:00):
I would do weightlifting. Um, And I was listening to
the things that he did when he was probably Can
I just say, and I'm sorry to interrupta he looks fantastic,
Yes he does. I mean that, like he looks like
he walked into any room and beat somebody's ass. Today.
You gotta hear the interview. Oh my god, it's one
of the most intense. It's the best interview I've ever
(13:21):
done in my life. I'm still right, and I'm still
flying on a real high right now, because that's like
a bucket list thing was to interview all of all
of the linebackers from that ninety four Steelers team. Unfortunately,
you know, I can't because Kevin Green isn't here. But
I did get an opportunity to interview um, Chad Brown
(13:43):
Levon Kirkland and now I had the opportunity to talk
to uh, to Greg Lloyd. I mean, it was just amazing.
They were so good man, what a crew? What a crew? Um?
And so where can people find the interviews? And it's
already up correct? I think he has sent a little
preview there up on game go to up on game feed,
you know, check it out. I mean it's up on
(14:03):
Game Presents. But I'll tell you what amazing it was.
I mean he kept it all the way really and
you'll be shocked to hear that the defensive m v
P he did some stuff that that ge Lloyd was like,
he was not he was not fond of You'll you'll
(14:24):
want to hear about it. I'm sure that's gonna play
well in Pittsburgh. Yeah, if there's someone, if there's someone
you can stand, it's Greg. Yeah. When you hear the
story why he wasn't too fond of it, you'll be
like wow, Like you wouldn't believe that that T. J.
Watt would have did what he did. But it's interesting.
(14:46):
You gotta go check it out. That's awesome. It's two
pros and a cup of Joe. Fox Sports Radio LaVar Arrington,

(15:53):
What bit just you know who's singing this all? I
don't know, but burtos at it again with the TVs.
Oh my gosh, okay, oh man, it's Sellman Louise. Yeah.
(16:17):
And you can go ahead and uh do the math
on that as to what led to the them running
from the law. All right, so man, oh man, Uh dude,
that's just jarring when you know you're not expecting it.
You know, twenty minutes after three in the morning on
a Friday in June, you know what I mean, Well,
(16:38):
you should always expect unexpected. With bt is, we had
a we had a baton studio. Who am I getting
here earlier in the week? I mean, you gotta that.
I hope people go and listen to it if they
didn't hear that segment. That is some of the most
epic unscripted radio off the cuff radio. It was funny
(16:59):
as hell. Yeah. I listened to it at least three times, man,
because we don't know the how we're doing. And then
you know it's early in the morning. You know you're
just coming to your senses. Uh, you know, you're trying
to gather yourself. You're doing a radio show. There's you know,
a lot of moving pieces, and then all of a sudden,
a bat starts flying around the inside of a radio
(17:19):
studio like you did when you did radio for a
long time in d C. I've done radio and other places.
I can assure you a bat has never flown into
the studio while we've been on the A I've never
seen a bat. I gotta admit, I've never seen a bat.
What was the weirdest thing? By the way, two pros
and a cup of Joe Fox Sports Radio, LaVar Rington,
Jonas knoxually here on fs are, what's the weirdest thing
(17:41):
you've ever dealt with in a radio station? Because I
have one earthquake while I was on the potty, on
the squatty potty and the earthquake happen, I was so
I was so vulnerable. I realized in that moment that
is the most vulnerable position of person to be in
a lot of second Was this in d C? Yes,
(18:04):
then an earthquake in d C bro I was on
the second floor and of all places to be, you know,
how like when you're in those movies and they're like, Oh,
they're so dumb. Just run. You would have made it
out of that. You would have made it out of
the building. If you would have just no, I would
have been dead. I would have been at that building
(18:24):
came down. I would have been dead and gone, and
the way they would have found me would have been
so embarrassing. Okay, what year was this? I don't remember.
I mean it would have been like two ten. All right,
So here's what we need to do. Can we as
southern California, you know, residents here, people that have been here,
born and raised in Southern California. We need to investigate
(18:45):
how big this earthquake was that LaVar freaked out about
it was It was like a I think it was
like a four or five, and for d C, that's
pretty big. Four or four or five In l A,
it is like a mouse fart. I was. I was, well,
I was, we're getting radio here. But I was with
a doctor. He was in d C, and he was
freaking the heck out. He's he's from he's from Peru.
(19:06):
So he's like, I'm in d C, but there's a
freaking earthquake. He was freaking out like he's like, why
is that there's an earthquake in d C. He was
like freaking out. Well, in Peru they got eight to nine. Ye. Yeah,
I remember exactly when that happened, not even just the quakes. Um,
by the way, so you are stupid, did right there?
(19:27):
Absolutely shopping. Let's go live to are I have an
update on the earthquake that made LaVar Craft down the
side of his leg and d C on the second
floor to a radio station insider lead to laugh of
the latest league. Only so many earthquakes you can find
on the East coast. I see a three point six,
and um, that was likely it or unless it was
(19:48):
this five point eight, but yeah, it shook the building
gas Like no, no joke. Like, what I'm trying to
tell you is I was sitting on the porcelain. God, man,
I'm sitting on the porcelain. God, it's not about its
going down my leg. It's about it's going down for real.
(20:12):
And I I was sitting there, I'm thinking that it
was like a water main rupture or something like that.
I'm like, man, in my mind, I'm like making a
joke out of it at first, like, man, the water
is gonna shoot up, make me hit sealing of this,
of this this bathroom. But then I realized, like this
is something's wrong, like the building is moving and and
(20:34):
and it was in that moment where I said, and
I said, I will never make fun of a girl
tripping and falling in a horror flick ever again. I'll
never do it to a dude. I'll never do it
to anybody. Because if I was watching that scene on
the movie, I would have been judging what I did.
I could not bring myself to moving like I could
(20:57):
not the embarrassment that I would have had to live
with to save my own life, I would have had
to have jumped up mid flight and started running out
of that building to make it out alive if that
building started to come down. So when you see the
movie Lethal Weapon and Danny Glover's on the toilet and
he's got like you can relate to that. I can. Yeah. Uh,
(21:19):
now did you this important question? Did you wipe? Did
you clean up after yourself? Or we too traumatized, said
you just said screw it, I'll buy you underwear. No.
I was already down, so it wasn't like my my
underwear was in danger of anything. I was already I
was vulnerable, did Okay, I mean it was over. I
(21:43):
still had to vacate the building, you know, and everybody
had to go down into a different structure, you know.
But yeah, I mean I had to finish. Yeah. That
that's more. That's more traumatizing than my story. I remember
the radio station in South Carolina. I was at UM.
It was a cluster, and in radio they call a
cluster where you've got a sports station in there. There
(22:05):
was you know, an R and B station, a pop station,
news station like. So it was all in the same building.
And so you mingle with some of the R and
B guys, or you mingle with some of that and
it's fun because the fun atmosphere because they all want
to talk sports and you want to talk music, and
it just oh yeah, it's not even not even close.
UM And so we I was in there on a
(22:27):
Monday and the computer system was all screwed up. It
was a Monday morning there, bright and early co hosting
the show with my guy Tony d Tony Dissiri, and
I tell him, I'm like, hey, we got an issue here.
What ended up happening was during one of the weekend shows,
one of the guys who was doing some post production
work brought his kids in and one of his kids
(22:49):
downloaded porn on the computer in the radio station and
they got they got a virus, and it was and
every single computer in the entire station because they were
all there. So I'm trying to record an update covering
South Carolina game, you know what, football, and literally there
is full fledged porn in my face for the entire
(23:13):
three hours, and I couldn't do anything about it. I
couldn't shut it down. I didn't have access. It was
too early to call the guy who handled the I
T guy who handles any of the technical stuff. So
we had to sit there and look at what appeared
to be open mic night. Um, I sorry to god,
(23:34):
it was I It was like on a loop turnstyle
after turnstile after and I don't know what I'm supposed
to do, and we're trying to keep a straight face,
we're interviewing people were doing like serious topics and the
whole time what was going on, but you know, not
(23:55):
not as dangerous as you know, sitting on the toilet
during an earthquake. I didn't know that story. That's that's phenomenal.
That's a great story to tell. It was, and you
were so traumatized by earthquakes you moved out to southern
California to do radio that's there and have gone through
plenty of earthquakes. You're veteran now, oh man. By the way,
we are brought to you by Discover with prices soaring

In the world of sports, I smell bs. But for
all the latest from around the world of sports, a
man who always smells the opposite of b S. It's
(24:37):
Eddie Garcia. Well, thank you very much. How about that, Eddie?
A little compliment here. No one's ever commented on the
radio about how I smell. Fortunately, I guess. So, you know, listen,
we got to paint the picture for the never smell

the Dollar Shave Club. The Dollar Shape Club six blid
Razor brings noticeably smooth shaves with six stainless deeel blades
or swift hair removal and a lubricating strip that keeps
saying smooth. Dollar Shape Club raisors are sold at Dollar
Shape Club dot Com or in stores. Twelve minutes from now,
(27:28):
we're going to get into a story about somebody in
the NFL right when he thought they were weird enough,
things take another turn, So that'll happen here on a question, Yeah,
Rambo series or expendables Rambo. If you have to choose
going Rambo, yeah, come Rambo, Yeah, Rambo, not even a question,
(27:52):
Rambo at I've never seen any of the expendable movies,
so I'll have to go Rambo on Rambo. Yeah, alright,
it's just that easy. I mean, you know, come on,
that was that was a bad question. No, no, it's
just as a fair question. It's just the expendables just
sounds like, you know, like a like a supergroup. Rambo's
like the actual band, you know. Yeah, he's the whole,
(28:14):
He's the whole. Yeah, I mean you guys, you guys
don't feel like he overdid it with Like I feel
like he's overdid it with every single movie series that
he's had. True, but there's still some gems in there,
Like it's not all the Rambos are good. But okay, yeah,
the first two all you need is First Blood, and
(28:35):
I would take that against all the expendables. Yeah, that's fair.
I don't know. And the Ramble that he did years later,
which was like twenty where everybody got cut in half
by it. Yeah, the most grotesque Gruci shooting shootout movie,
like Jesus, Like, okay, so while we're on while we're
(28:56):
on Rocky Balboa, which which one is your favorite? Rocky
Bouboa two? Yeah against against three is club Lane? Yeah
to our two is the Tiger? Yeah, great, great, great
finish where he beats the count, pulls himself up on
the rope, spoiler aler pulls himself on the road, and
(29:20):
uh yes, I would go one or two. I wasn't
that crazy four in Russia? I love that's my favorite. Yeah,
I don't know, it's it's a little that's my favorite.
I don't know. I mean, you know, it's a little cheesy. Yeah,
if you could change there was a lot going on
in the world, and yeah, it's just like how can
(29:42):
we work in this storyline to try and get people
to rally around the movie. It's just like, come on, dude,
Like say Rocky three with Cluver Lane, Club Lane, that's
a good one. That would be my second. That'd be
number two. Yeah. So no, old so no, old man.
Rockies were your favorites? Like Rocky five where he's fighting
you know, Tomler, Tommy Yeah, Tommy Gunn. How are the
(30:05):
Creed movies? I haven't seen any I haven't seen any
pretty solid good. Yeah, they're pretty good. Do you include
that in the conversation though, when you rank Rocky films? No?
But yeah, yeah, but he didn't take him long to
change the same character you have. It's just it's a yeah,
it's a spin off. I mean, they do spin off
of his you know, his following father. You know, Paulo
(30:28):
Creed obviously lost his life and and and four, you know,
And that was another reason why I think that was
my favorite, because that was such an unexpected twist plot twist.
Like I didn't like the fact that that he got
killed in the ring, you know, he died in the ring.
I just didn't like it. But the James Brown performance
was epic. It was amazing. His ring entry, it was amazing.
(30:52):
You know. Paula Creed, he was just I was a
big fan of him, you know. I thought it was
a really well done movie. I'm sorry. Yeah, yeah, I
mean his motivation was real motivation to to get you know,
Ivan Draggle. You know, yeah, I don't know, just uh,
I don't need the international flavor. I was trying to
make it. I was just trying to make a good,
(31:13):
good argument for for four buzz I think that a
lot of people. That's the best soundtrack of them all, easily,
even though I had the Tiger is the most epic.
You know. The training montages are phenomenal from there. I
still work out to those if I just had to
work if and when I just have to work out,
it's two pros and a cup of Joe. Here, Fox
(31:35):
Sports Radio Brock The Dollar Shave Clubs. Dollar Shave Club
six blade razor brings noticeably smooth shaves of six stainless
steel blades were for swift hair removal and a lubricating
strip that keeps saying smooth. Dollar Shape Club razors are
sold a Dollar Shape Club dot Com or in stores. Um,
all right, so let me just sub I want to
say this real quick before we get to break because
I tease it. Radio Formatics here for for the kids
(31:58):
out there. UM, I call bs on what happened at
the top of the NBA Draft last night. What a
bunch of crap that we are being fed by Adrian Woodsnarowski, ESPN,
The Orlando Magic whoever is behind it is full of crap.
So Jabari Smith is projected to be the guy to
go number one to Orlando. I mean the odds would
(32:21):
tell you weeks and weeks and weeks of build up.
Jabari Smith is a guy going number one at the draft,
and then all of a sudden, an hour before, Woe
just got a tweet that says, you know, there's some
speculation blah blah blah, there could be Paula Bancarro from
Dooke who could go number one, and and what do
you know? The draft starts and Bancarro ends up going
(32:43):
number one overall and people are shocked, and Jabari Smith
has got to look on his face like, what the
hell just happened? I was thought, I thought something else.
It's all bs. One of two things. Actually, let me
say one of three things happened. One of three things happen.
Either ESPN is so desk for it for ratings and
for people to give a crap about the NBA Draft
(33:04):
and their sport that they waited until the final hour
to pump up some interest, realizing we got a problem
here based on some of the ratings and reports on
the ratings in the NBA finals, So they waited until
an hour before and had Woes drop a quote unquote
Woes bomb that it could not be Jabari Smith, that
might be Bankcarre was gonna go number one. Overall, it's
(33:24):
either that or Woes is in some sort of coots
with the Orlando Magic who's been feeding him information and
letting it throw out there when in reality, he knew
what was going to happen the entire time, because the
idea that Wog is gonna get duped by the Orlando
Magic in the draft the first time maybe in his career,
has ever been duped by a team or see options.
(33:45):
See somebody made some money and we're gambling on polo
band Caro behind the scenes, because you would have made
a significant amount of coin if that were the case.
I called bs. I think it's all shenanigans and somebody
needs to get called out for it. That his is
me off Man. Just drop the mic. It just it
just pisses now. It was a pen. Yeah, he can't
(34:05):
drop the mic here professional he is a radio studio,
you know the Yeah, this is the stuff here and
it can't drop this stuff in the Did you push
it out of Okay? No, no, I don't push it
out of the way. It just it's like people just go,
oh my god, what a what a stunner At the
top of the NBA Draft to who it's just it's
(34:26):
such bs and and and ESPN and woes just just
like Woes works for ESPN. So of course he's got
a vested interest to want to get as many people
to watch the product as possible. Nobody cared about yesterday
Yesterday's NBA draft, A lot of people didn't even know
what was on. Nobody gave a crap. And so what
does ESPN do an hour before Here's what we've got
(34:49):
for you, Like there could be a surprise at the
top of the draft, and what do you know, the
surprise ends up happening. A question in that scenario, in
some way, somehow, somebody was around the people that gets
that information and they placed a bet. Would anybody ever
know only if somebody opened their mouth later on, only
(35:12):
if somebody made said something later on, only if somebody
made a comment later on. And I'm not trying to
accuse anybody of gambling on it, but there's a reason
why sports books put limits on things like this, because
it's an information based bet, and so somebody knows something.
And so it's like why you see the Heisman odds,
(35:32):
Like a couple of years ago when Kyler Murray was
in the race for the Heisman. All of a sudden,
one weekend, you came back in and the Heisman odds
completely changed because somebody talked to some voters, got an
idea for what was going to happen with the Heisman,
and they adjusted the line accordingly. Screwed to it. You
gotta be deep into it to get that type of Yeah. Now,
(35:53):
I think that's a little bit different than like a draft. Yeah,
a draft, I mean, just the idea it woes didn't
know what was going to happen until an hour before
the draft is such a bunch of crap. It's it's
so I just don't buy it for a second. All right,

you here on FS are coming up top of next
hour about ten minutes from now. We're gonna have an
update and on one of the big stories in the
world of sports, maybe the biggest over the past ever.
We are brought to you by the Dollar Shave Club
but six Blade razor, which brings noticeably smooth shaves of
(37:39):
six stainless steel blades for swift hair removal and a
lubricating strip that keeps saying smooth. Dollar Shave Club razors
are sold at Dollar Shave Club dot Com or in stores.
Sometimes you can't get to everything in the world of sports.
Or entertainment. Good thing. The guys are here to bring
you in case you missed it, and for that we
turn it over to our exact get the producer the
(38:00):
great lead to us Lap the lap Fellows. We've talked
a lot about Dan Snyder this week, whill a story
surfaced yesterday from a former employee testifying his name is
David Pokin, that there was a feud between Dan Snyder
and Washington Nationals owner Mr. Lerner, who sold him property
for parking lot. Well, Snyder thought he paid too much,
(38:23):
so his way of getting back at him was he
had his employee go into his sweet and pour milk
under the seats so that when his family came in
on game day it smelled like sour milk. I mean, yeah,
but does it work? I would I would think that
would work, right, Like if you would have to be
(38:44):
sour milk, right. Well, he went in on a non
game day to pour the milk so that it would
sour by the time the family came by. Yeah, but
some milk. Yeah, but see that that's maybe poor planning
because it did he look at the date when the
milk would expire. That's what I'm saying. Unless it's a
really hot environment. Turn on the heat. Yeah, yeah, I
don't know. I mean I that you know, I feel
(39:05):
like you could have done something better, Like there's you know,
if if anybody's ever ding dong ditch before. Yeah, like
what are your thoughts on interested? Yeah, I just know
the name any stories, I know the name. If you
wanted to prank somebody, wouldn't it be better to throw
like some sardines in somewhere, Yeah, like where you get
(39:25):
that instant stinking like even though you know it happened,
you can't get it out because also like when somebody
has to come out, Yeah, and when somebody has to
pick up a sardine, now their hands are gonna smell.
Uh you know. Now It's like like I just feel
like sardines or throwing like a piece of fish in
there would have been better than this. At a Washington
football team, Well, this was at FedEx Field. Learner had
(39:49):
a suite at the at the at the stadium, and
so you're going to jack up your own stadium to
get back at Okay, all right, it's and it's have
a subtle way to do it. You know you could
that's a subtle way. Well you can you can plead ignorance,
You can say I don't know how that snow got there? Okay,
(40:09):
all right? I mean what would you have done to
Dan Snyder if you wanted to get even lamar uh?
Sent him some some get taller pills and the mail.
That's not nice. Go on you too, oh manh yeah, listen,
(40:31):
I just you know, I feel like this we are
we just scratching the surface on some of the feels
like more and more of this stuff is coming out
the fact that this guy would feel comfortable enough to
drop a story that he threw sour mill because it's
basically vandalism, right, that's vandalism on his own established Like,
so he vandalized himself just because he couldn't stand Dan Snyder.

Navar Arrington, Jonas Knox with you here. No Brady Quinn,
but in honor of b Q, it is still a
football Friday here on Fox Sports Radio, and we are
going to get into the latest on Deshaun Watson. Was
there some negotiating on a punishment we'll talk about that.
Was there some shenanigans at the top of the NBA Draft.
(00:21):
We will have that discussion for you here. Somebody has
a bold prediction for their second year in the NFL,
a major decision in the world of college football. We've
also got the scraps, We've got over unders, we've got
in case you missed it, and we've got you It's
all coming up next year on a Friday edition of
Two Pros and a Cup of Joe Fox Sports Radio.
(00:43):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio. Yeah, and we got
some shenanigans to start things off. Somebody in ca hoots
with somebody else in the world of sports. We'll get
into all that for you here coming up in just
a couple of moments from now. It's Two Pros and
Up at Joe Fox Sports Radio. LaVar Arrington, Jonas knocks
(01:03):
with here on FS are no Brady Quinn. He will
be back with us again coming up on Monday at
six am Eastern time, but it will be Sticks and
I taking you all the way up until nine am

(01:26):
how we feeling here on a Friday. I'm feeling real
smooth man? Oh yeah, yeah, I'm feeling real smooth. How smooth?
Like real smoothing? Almost like the Dollar Shave Club six
blade razor, which brings noticeably smooth shaves with six stainless
steel blades for swift hair removal and a lubricating strip
that keeps saying smooth. Dollar Shave Club razors are sold
of Dollar Shave Club dot Com or in stores. How
(01:48):
about it. We're getting this thing careful. Yeah, you gotta be.
You gotta be careful there. But you know a lot
of people think that, um, you know, even though Brady
is out, that we're just going to ignore what day
of the week it is. Uh, and and they're probably thinking,
you know, as you look at the calendar and you
see that it's June going into July, and there's no
(02:10):
real NFL coming up anytime soon, we're all kind of
waiting and we might have you know, more information later
on in the show about Deshaun Watson and whether or
not he's going to be suspended and what that's gonna
look like. So people are thinking, oh, does that mean
you guys aren't going to do what we think you
normally do here? Oh, I mean I didn't think we
were going to do without you. It's a football Friday,
(02:31):
a football Friday, and in the honor of Brady Quinn
who was not here, little football Friday. Yeah, spinning, Yeah,
so it is. It is a football Friday here on
Fox Sports Radio as tradition, every single Friday, as we
(02:53):
closed up the week here and so of course it
would be only appropriate to open up a football Friday
with the NBA Draft. So let's let's get right into
it here. Um, congratulations to Paula Bankro, who is the
number one pick of the Orlando Magic. Um. You know,
life changing moment, I know, LaVar. You've been there, You've
(03:15):
you've been drafted high before. Yeah, but this is uh
kind of a cool moment that point nine percent of
us will never ever truly understand. But you're one of
the guys who actually gets it, one of the guys
who knows at the moment. It's pretty cool, man. It's
a it's a dream recognized. You work so hard for
so long, so you know, when you're you're sitting there
(03:40):
and you're waiting for you waiting for them to call
your name, it's it's just it's a it's a pretty
surreal moment. You know. I thought about all the emotions
that would possibly take place when if they called my
name during the draft and you just you just don't know,
you just don't know how you going to feel in
(04:01):
that moment. I thought that I'd be overwhelmed with emotion,
probably would start crying all over the place, um out
of joy and happiness. And then when they called my name,
it just was like it was like a sense of
let's go. Like it turned into like a real intense feeling,
like I was like almost like I was ready to play.
(04:22):
Like it put me in like a game playing mode
when they called my name. So when I was walking
to the stage to go meet Roger uh Paul Taglabu,
it was it was like I was literally walking out
into the arena to go perform. So anyways, you know,
congratulations to all the guys I got got drafted that
(04:45):
that we're able to um realize that dream. But you know,
the one thing that you do realize in those moments, Jonas,
is that it's very short lived because because now you
really have to take on the weight and the understanding
of you. You've become that investable for for a company,
(05:09):
and there's with with that investment comes a whole lot
of pressure. Yeah, and it's also uh and you realize, God,
if I don't deliver, I'm gonna be viewed at, you know,
beyond one of those top ten guy you know the
word I hate the most bust list or like that
whole that whole thing, and then the narrative is going
to be written about you for the rest of you.
And I think a lot of those guys carry that
(05:30):
with them the rest of their lives. I mean, look,
Sam Booie was a great player in college, but the
fact that he was taking ahead of Michael Jordan's and
then you saw what happened. It just he's got to
carry that with him forever like that, that's never gonna
leave him. He's always going to be viewed at as
as the guy who went, you know before Michael Jordan's
(05:52):
in Portland was criticized for it, and so you just
you think about all of that, and that's why, you know,
when when you think about the pressure and how much
going on, I could totally understand why that there would
be so much. But that's also that's also a badge
of honor though. I think once you get done playing
the game and you realize the magnitude of being good
(06:14):
enough to to be drafted where you're drafted at. I mean,
I was in the same draft class as Tom Brady,
you know, so there are a lot of guys that
went before Tom Brady in that draft. I had to
live with that, you know that they were taken before
Tom Brady. But the reality of it is is that
(06:34):
in that moment, at that moment, everybody that went in
front of Tom Brady was considered to be better than
Tom Brady for the team that took you know that
that player. So for me, I I carry it as
a distinction of you know what, like, at that point
in time, it is what it is, It was what
it was. I don't I don't look at it as
(06:55):
I like, you know, I didn't have the type of
career anywhere near some of the guys that I was
in the draft with that went after me. But at
that moment in time, I was the highest rate of
player in that draft class. And that's a distinction that
for good or forbad. That still is what it is,
that still exists. So you just take it at face value.
(07:16):
And also it's it's about where you get drafted. And
I know that people kind of throw that out there,
and I feel like everybody knows that, but they forget
about it. When you know, something comes up about a
player who doesn't deliver early on in their career and
it's like, oh my god, you know what an awful pick.
It's like, okay, we we know. Maybe it's not the pick,
maybe it's not the player, maybe it's a situation. And
(07:39):
so like you you look at like players that are
that are deemed as uh, you know, wow, they weren't successful,
they were busts. Like I just don't think it's a
black and white conversation. I think there's more to it.
You know, a situation dictates everything, and who the hell
knows if Tom Brady goes and gets drafted in in
the first round to another organization, probably doesn't have the
(08:01):
same storyline and the same career that he had. Like
it just it's all about where you go and where
you end up. And I think that plays into it.
And it's it's like people know that, they acknowledge it,
but then when the discussion comes about the player not delivering,
we don't really want to look at that. We just
want to look at, you know, that player singularly and say, well,
you know, they just they weren't what they were drafted
(08:21):
to be and uh and and things didn't work out
for him, and that's on them. It's like, come on, man,
I mean a lot of hypotheticals, and I mean it's
a it's it's a it's a good perspective, it's a
it's a good take. But it is really just all
about perspectives, right, I mean, if you think about it,
(08:41):
there's the Barry Sanders of the world. You know, they
didn't have anything, but yeah, it's considered one of the
greatest of all time and was wildly you know productive,
they're they're they're really you gotta look at it is.
There's really no excuse when talking about being on the
(09:02):
pursuit of greatness. Sometimes it happens in your favor and
sometimes it doesn't, you know, but you take on the
you take on the challenge of it, and things happen,
right Injuries happen, Coaching changes happen, you know, better coaching
from other teams happened. You know, better players against you
(09:24):
on other teams happened. I mean, there's just a lot
of different factors that play into why players don't have
the type of success that they might have been looked
at to have during the course of well when they
got drafted. So I don't I don't ever look at,
you know, my career. I certainly did not have anywhere
(09:45):
near the type of career that I would have liked
to have had in the in the pro level. While
it was productive, it wasn't as productive as I like,
even if we weren't winning. You know, I would have
liked to have have a cheve that achieved more and
and meaning achieved more for longer. Like my trajectory was
(10:07):
good and then it it dropped off of a cliff right,
Like it was like my rookie year, it was like
it was all right, and then my second year, I
became one of the top defensive players you know, in
the in the game. And that that was for a
three year period of time. I just needed to keep
going and I and I wasn't, you know, for one
(10:28):
reason or another, I wasn't able to continue on on
that trajectory. But I don't make any excuses about it.
And I don't believe I had a Hall of Fame.
I know I didn't have a Hall of Fame NFL career,
and that's something that you have to live with. That's
probably the toughest thing to live with, is when you're
you're so good at every level. You know, coming out
(10:48):
of high school, I was the highest rated player coming
out of high school. You know, one to Parade All
American Player of the Year award, you know, the Downtown
Bobby Dott Award. You know, when you're talking about like
being being decorated, I was pretty decorated coming out of
high school. I was pretty decorated coming out of college,
and at one point in time, I was pretty decorated
(11:12):
as as a pro player. But you just know, when
you get drafted, your your opportunity is to play a
professional game, get paid the king's ransom, oh for for
a game that children play, and you live pretty good.
And if you're able to put those things in perspective,
(11:32):
like those guys I just got drafted for the NBA,
it's even it's even more intense because you're talking about
what is a sixty draft picks. Yeah, I mean, that's
that is That is just dumb, stupid, ridiculous to think
that you could be one of sixty people in the world,
(11:53):
not not just America, in the world. You're your sixty
of the best of of that sport at this point
in time. So I think you just take it in
and you take it at face value. But I think
you ultimately, you know, you embrace the fact that you're
going to have to work, and you're going to have
(12:16):
to work at a level where it's almost like an
obsession for the sport in order to live up to
the expectation that comes with being drafted so high. It's
almost like you have to give up really like almost everything,
having a life, Like it's crazy. I was talking to
Greg Lloyd. I interviewed Greg Lloyd yesterday. Yeah, he's my
(12:38):
favorite football player of all time. Like that was who
I patterned my my game after. That's why I admire
him so much. And just listening to the way he trained.
I thought I trained hard, like I really did. I
thought that I did a lot of things, like I
trained two or three times a day. I would get up,
I would I would run, I would do fundamentals midday,
(13:00):
I would do weightlifting. Um, And I was listening to
the things that he did when he was probably Can
I just say, and I'm sorry to interrupta he looks fantastic,
Yes he does. I mean that, like he looks like
he walked into any room and beat somebody's ass. Today.
You gotta hear the interview. Oh my god, it's one
of the most intense. It's the best interview I've ever
(13:21):
done in my life. I'm still right, and I'm still
flying on a real high right now, because that's like
a bucket list thing was to interview all of all
of the linebackers from that ninety four Steelers team. Unfortunately,
you know, I can't because Kevin Green isn't here. But
I did get an opportunity to interview um, Chad Brown
(13:43):
Levon Kirkland and now I had the opportunity to talk
to uh, to Greg Lloyd. I mean, it was just amazing.
They were so good man, what a crew? What a crew? Um?
And so where can people find the interviews? And it's
already up correct? I think he has sent a little
preview there up on game go to up on game feed,
you know, check it out. I mean it's up on
(14:03):
Game Presents. But I'll tell you what amazing it was.
I mean he kept it all the way really and
you'll be shocked to hear that the defensive m v
P he did some stuff that that ge Lloyd was like,

What bit just you know who's singing this all? I
don't know, but burtos at it again with the TVs.
Oh my gosh, okay, oh man, it's Sellman Louise. Yeah.
(16:17):
And you can go ahead and uh do the math
on that as to what led to the them running
from the law. All right, so man, oh man, Uh dude,
that's just jarring when you know you're not expecting it.
You know, twenty minutes after three in the morning on
a Friday in June, you know what I mean, Well,
(16:38):
you should always expect unexpected. With bt is, we had
a we had a baton studio. Who am I getting
here earlier in the week? I mean, you gotta that.
I hope people go and listen to it if they
didn't hear that segment. That is some of the most
epic unscripted radio off the cuff radio. It was funny
(16:59):
as hell. Yeah. I listened to it at least three times, man,
because we don't know the how we're doing. And then
you know it's early in the morning. You know you're
just coming to your senses. Uh, you know, you're trying
to gather yourself. You're doing a radio show. There's you know,
a lot of moving pieces, and then all of a sudden,
a bat starts flying around the inside of a radio
(17:19):
studio like you did when you did radio for a
long time in d C. I've done radio and other places.
I can assure you a bat has never flown into
the studio while we've been on the A I've never
seen a bat. I gotta admit, I've never seen a bat.
What was the weirdest thing? By the way, two pros
and a cup of Joe Fox Sports Radio, LaVar Rington,
Jonas knoxually here on fs are, what's the weirdest thing
(17:41):
you've ever dealt with in a radio station? Because I
have one earthquake while I was on the potty, on
the squatty potty and the earthquake happen, I was so
I was so vulnerable. I realized in that moment that
is the most vulnerable position of person to be in
a lot of second Was this in d C? Yes,
(18:04):
then an earthquake in d C bro I was on
the second floor and of all places to be, you know,
how like when you're in those movies and they're like, Oh,
they're so dumb. Just run. You would have made it
out of that. You would have made it out of
the building. If you would have just no, I would
have been dead. I would have been at that building
(18:24):
came down. I would have been dead and gone, and
the way they would have found me would have been
so embarrassing. Okay, what year was this? I don't remember.
I mean it would have been like two ten. All right,
So here's what we need to do. Can we as
southern California, you know, residents here, people that have been here,
born and raised in Southern California. We need to investigate
(18:45):
how big this earthquake was that LaVar freaked out about
it was It was like a I think it was
like a four or five, and for d C, that's
pretty big. Four or four or five In l A,
it is like a mouse fart. I was. I was, well,
I was, we're getting radio here. But I was with
a doctor. He was in d C, and he was
freaking the heck out. He's he's from he's from Peru.
(19:06):
So he's like, I'm in d C, but there's a
freaking earthquake. He was freaking out like he's like, why
is that there's an earthquake in d C. He was
like freaking out. Well, in Peru they got eight to nine. Ye. Yeah,
I remember exactly when that happened, not even just the quakes. Um,
by the way, so you are stupid, did right there?
(19:27):
Absolutely shopping. Let's go live to are I have an
update on the earthquake that made LaVar Craft down the
side of his leg and d C on the second
floor to a radio station insider lead to laugh of
the latest league. Only so many earthquakes you can find
on the East coast. I see a three point six,
and um, that was likely it or unless it was
(19:48):
this five point eight, but yeah, it shook the building
gas Like no, no joke. Like, what I'm trying to
tell you is I was sitting on the porcelain. God, man,
I'm sitting on the porcelain. God, it's not about its
going down my leg. It's about it's going down for real.
(20:12):
And I I was sitting there, I'm thinking that it
was like a water main rupture or something like that.
I'm like, man, in my mind, I'm like making a
joke out of it at first, like, man, the water
is gonna shoot up, make me hit sealing of this,
of this this bathroom. But then I realized, like this
is something's wrong, like the building is moving and and
(20:34):
and it was in that moment where I said, and
I said, I will never make fun of a girl
tripping and falling in a horror flick ever again. I'll
never do it to a dude. I'll never do it
to anybody. Because if I was watching that scene on
the movie, I would have been judging what I did.
I could not bring myself to moving like I could
(20:57):
not the embarrassment that I would have had to live
with to save my own life, I would have had
to have jumped up mid flight and started running out
of that building to make it out alive if that
building started to come down. So when you see the
movie Lethal Weapon and Danny Glover's on the toilet and
he's got like you can relate to that. I can. Yeah. Uh,
(21:19):
now did you this important question? Did you wipe? Did
you clean up after yourself? Or we too traumatized, said
you just said screw it, I'll buy you underwear. No.
I was already down, so it wasn't like my my
underwear was in danger of anything. I was already I
was vulnerable, did Okay, I mean it was over. I
(21:43):
still had to vacate the building, you know, and everybody
had to go down into a different structure, you know.
But yeah, I mean I had to finish. Yeah. That
that's more. That's more traumatizing than my story. I remember
the radio station in South Carolina. I was at UM.
It was a cluster, and in radio they call a
cluster where you've got a sports station in there. There
(22:05):
was you know, an R and B station, a pop station,
news station like. So it was all in the same building.
And so you mingle with some of the R and
B guys, or you mingle with some of that and
it's fun because the fun atmosphere because they all want
to talk sports and you want to talk music, and
it just oh yeah, it's not even not even close.
UM And so we I was in there on a
(22:27):
Monday and the computer system was all screwed up. It
was a Monday morning there, bright and early co hosting
the show with my guy Tony d Tony Dissiri, and
I tell him, I'm like, hey, we got an issue here.
What ended up happening was during one of the weekend shows,
one of the guys who was doing some post production
work brought his kids in and one of his kids
(22:49):
downloaded porn on the computer in the radio station and
they got they got a virus, and it was and
every single computer in the entire station because they were
all there. So I'm trying to record an update covering
South Carolina game, you know what, football, and literally there
is full fledged porn in my face for the entire
(23:13):
three hours, and I couldn't do anything about it. I
couldn't shut it down. I didn't have access. It was
too early to call the guy who handled the I
T guy who handles any of the technical stuff. So
we had to sit there and look at what appeared
to be open mic night. Um, I sorry to god,
(23:34):
it was I It was like on a loop turnstyle
after turnstile after and I don't know what I'm supposed
to do, and we're trying to keep a straight face,
we're interviewing people were doing like serious topics and the
whole time what was going on, but you know, not
(23:55):
not as dangerous as you know, sitting on the toilet
during an earthquake. I didn't know that story. That's that's phenomenal.
That's a great story to tell. It was, and you
were so traumatized by earthquakes you moved out to southern
California to do radio that's there and have gone through
plenty of earthquakes. You're veteran now, oh man. By the way,
we are brought to you by Discover with prices soaring
(24:17):
at the pump. Discover has your back with cash back.
He was discovered or in five percent cash back at
gas stations and Target now through June on and purchases
when you activate learn more Discovered dot com slash rewards

In the world of sports, I smell bs. But for
all the latest from around the world of sports, a
man who always smells the opposite of b S. It's
(24:37):
Eddie Garcia. Well, thank you very much. How about that, Eddie?
A little compliment here. No one's ever commented on the
radio about how I smell. Fortunately, I guess. So, you know, listen,
we got to paint the picture for the never smell
smells great. Know, not many people do, LaVar. I'm I'm
in the little news booth over here myself, and uh,
you know, we generally don't get close enough to you
(24:59):
know it. I'm gonna fix that. I'm gonna start smelling
you every day, Eddie. I want to come visit you. Hello. Yeah.
Well there's been some people that have worked in that
studio who leave food around afterwards. Uh, and the entire
studio smells. Eddie never pulls at you know. And I'm
not trying to call anybody out in the area. Doesn't
(25:20):
work here anymore. So he's not he's not whipping a
protein shakes. So we've been between updates, you know. So Hey.
The NBA Draft was last night. The Orlando Magic selected
forward Pollo Ben Carroll out of Duke with the number
one overall picking. Was one a four Blue Devil selected
in this year's first round at number two, the Oklahoma
City Thunder to accept foot center chet home ground of Gonzaga.
(25:42):
He was one of three first round picks for Oklahoma City,
and with a third pick, the Houston Rockets land at
Auburn guard Jabari Smith Jr. Who many expected to be
the number one overall pick. College football top high school
quarterback Arch Manning, the nephew of Peyton and Eli, announced
he's gonna attend the University of Texas in baseball games.
You note we had the Yankees scoring four in the
ninth to walk off of the seven six win over
(26:03):
the Astros. In the battle of the top two teams
in the American League, Aaron Judge the hero with an
RBI single to win the game. Brewers beat the Cardinals
six to four. Milwaukee moves back into a tie for
first in the NL Central with St. Louis. Those two
teams split their four games series twins. Good by the
Guardians one nothing starting pitcher Devin Smeltzer and three leaders
combined on a five a shutout, and the only run
of the game came on a Nick Gordon solo homer.
(26:24):
Minnesota avoids being swept in the series, and they moved
back into a tie with Cleveland for first in the
AL Central. Padres lose to the Phillies six too, while
the Dodgers wrap up a three game series sweep of
the Reds with a ten five acree l a reclaimed
soul possession of first in the NL Wester one game
up on San Diego and Dan's being swapsed into a
couple of homers with the Braves in their seven six

Dabar Arrington and Jonas Flocks in the Flox Sports Radio Studios.
Thanks Eddie. It's two pros and a cup of Joe.
Here on fs are we are brought to you by
the Dollar Shave Club. The Dollar Shape Club six blid
Razor brings noticeably smooth shaves with six stainless deeel blades
or swift hair removal and a lubricating strip that keeps
saying smooth. Dollar Shape Club raisors are sold at Dollar
Shape Club dot Com or in stores. Twelve minutes from now,
(27:28):
we're going to get into a story about somebody in
the NFL right when he thought they were weird enough,
things take another turn, So that'll happen here on a question, Yeah,
Rambo series or expendables Rambo. If you have to choose
going Rambo, yeah, come Rambo, Yeah, Rambo, not even a question,
(27:52):
Rambo at I've never seen any of the expendable movies,
so I'll have to go Rambo on Rambo. Yeah, alright,
it's just that easy. I mean, you know, come on,
that was that was a bad question. No, no, it's
just as a fair question. It's just the expendables just
sounds like, you know, like a like a supergroup. Rambo's
like the actual band, you know. Yeah, he's the whole,
(28:14):
He's the whole. Yeah, I mean you guys, you guys
don't feel like he overdid it with Like I feel
like he's overdid it with every single movie series that
he's had. True, but there's still some gems in there,
Like it's not all the Rambos are good. But okay, yeah,
the first two all you need is First Blood, and
(28:35):
I would take that against all the expendables. Yeah, that's fair.
I don't know. And the Ramble that he did years later,
which was like twenty where everybody got cut in half
by it. Yeah, the most grotesque Gruci shooting shootout movie,
like Jesus, Like, okay, so while we're on while we're
(28:56):
on Rocky Balboa, which which one is your favorite? Rocky
Bouboa two? Yeah against against three is club Lane? Yeah
to our two is the Tiger? Yeah, great, great, great
finish where he beats the count, pulls himself up on
the rope, spoiler aler pulls himself on the road, and
(29:20):
uh yes, I would go one or two. I wasn't
that crazy four in Russia? I love that's my favorite. Yeah,
I don't know, it's it's a little that's my favorite.
I don't know. I mean, you know, it's a little cheesy. Yeah,
if you could change there was a lot going on
in the world, and yeah, it's just like how can
(29:42):
we work in this storyline to try and get people
to rally around the movie. It's just like, come on, dude,
Like say Rocky three with Cluver Lane, Club Lane, that's
a good one. That would be my second. That'd be
number two. Yeah. So no, old so no, old man.
Rockies were your favorites? Like Rocky five where he's fighting
you know, Tomler, Tommy Yeah, Tommy Gunn. How are the
(30:05):
Creed movies? I haven't seen any I haven't seen any
pretty solid good. Yeah, they're pretty good. Do you include
that in the conversation though, when you rank Rocky films? No?
But yeah, yeah, but he didn't take him long to
change the same character you have. It's just it's a yeah,
it's a spin off. I mean, they do spin off
of his you know, his following father. You know, Paulo
(30:28):
Creed obviously lost his life and and and four, you know,
And that was another reason why I think that was
my favorite, because that was such an unexpected twist plot twist.
Like I didn't like the fact that that he got
killed in the ring, you know, he died in the ring.
I just didn't like it. But the James Brown performance
was epic. It was amazing. His ring entry, it was amazing.
(30:52):
You know. Paula Creed, he was just I was a
big fan of him, you know. I thought it was
a really well done movie. I'm sorry. Yeah, yeah, I
mean his motivation was real motivation to to get you know,
Ivan Draggle. You know, yeah, I don't know, just uh,
I don't need the international flavor. I was trying to
make it. I was just trying to make a good,
(31:13):
good argument for for four buzz I think that a
lot of people. That's the best soundtrack of them all, easily,
even though I had the Tiger is the most epic.
You know. The training montages are phenomenal from there. I
still work out to those if I just had to
work if and when I just have to work out,
it's two pros and a cup of Joe. Here, Fox
(31:35):
Sports Radio Brock The Dollar Shave Clubs. Dollar Shave Club
six blade razor brings noticeably smooth shaves of six stainless
steel blades were for swift hair removal and a lubricating
strip that keeps saying smooth. Dollar Shape Club razors are
sold a Dollar Shape Club dot Com or in stores. Um,
all right, so let me just sub I want to
say this real quick before we get to break because
I tease it. Radio Formatics here for for the kids
(31:58):
out there. UM, I call bs on what happened at
the top of the NBA Draft last night. What a
bunch of crap that we are being fed by Adrian Woodsnarowski, ESPN,
The Orlando Magic whoever is behind it is full of crap.
So Jabari Smith is projected to be the guy to
go number one to Orlando. I mean the odds would
(32:21):
tell you weeks and weeks and weeks of build up.
Jabari Smith is a guy going number one at the draft,
and then all of a sudden, an hour before, Woe
just got a tweet that says, you know, there's some
speculation blah blah blah, there could be Paula Bancarro from
Dooke who could go number one, and and what do
you know? The draft starts and Bancarro ends up going
(32:43):
number one overall and people are shocked, and Jabari Smith
has got to look on his face like, what the
hell just happened? I was thought, I thought something else.
It's all bs. One of two things. Actually, let me
say one of three things happened. One of three things happen.
Either ESPN is so desk for it for ratings and
for people to give a crap about the NBA Draft
(33:04):
and their sport that they waited until the final hour
to pump up some interest, realizing we got a problem
here based on some of the ratings and reports on
the ratings in the NBA finals, So they waited until
an hour before and had Woes drop a quote unquote
Woes bomb that it could not be Jabari Smith, that
might be Bankcarre was gonna go number one. Overall, it's
(33:24):
either that or Woes is in some sort of coots
with the Orlando Magic who's been feeding him information and
letting it throw out there when in reality, he knew
what was going to happen the entire time, because the
idea that Wog is gonna get duped by the Orlando
Magic in the draft the first time maybe in his career,
has ever been duped by a team or see options.
(33:45):
See somebody made some money and we're gambling on polo
band Caro behind the scenes, because you would have made
a significant amount of coin if that were the case.
I called bs. I think it's all shenanigans and somebody
needs to get called out for it. That his is
me off Man. Just drop the mic. It just it
just pisses now. It was a pen. Yeah, he can't
(34:05):
drop the mic here professional he is a radio studio,
you know the Yeah, this is the stuff here and
it can't drop this stuff in the Did you push
it out of Okay? No, no, I don't push it
out of the way. It just it's like people just go,
oh my god, what a what a stunner At the
top of the NBA Draft to who it's just it's
(34:26):
such bs and and and ESPN and woes just just
like Woes works for ESPN. So of course he's got
a vested interest to want to get as many people
to watch the product as possible. Nobody cared about yesterday
Yesterday's NBA draft, A lot of people didn't even know
what was on. Nobody gave a crap. And so what
does ESPN do an hour before Here's what we've got
(34:49):
for you, Like there could be a surprise at the
top of the draft, and what do you know, the
surprise ends up happening. A question in that scenario, in
some way, somehow, somebody was around the people that gets
that information and they placed a bet. Would anybody ever
know only if somebody opened their mouth later on, only
(35:12):
if somebody made said something later on, only if somebody
made a comment later on. And I'm not trying to
accuse anybody of gambling on it, but there's a reason
why sports books put limits on things like this, because
it's an information based bet, and so somebody knows something.
And so it's like why you see the Heisman odds,
(35:32):
Like a couple of years ago when Kyler Murray was
in the race for the Heisman. All of a sudden,
one weekend, you came back in and the Heisman odds
completely changed because somebody talked to some voters, got an
idea for what was going to happen with the Heisman,
and they adjusted the line accordingly. Screwed to it. You
gotta be deep into it to get that type of Yeah. Now,
(35:53):
I think that's a little bit different than like a draft. Yeah,
a draft, I mean, just the idea it woes didn't
know what was going to happen until an hour before
the draft is such a bunch of crap. It's it's
so I just don't buy it for a second. All right,
Two Pros and a Cup of Joe. Fox Sports Radio

you here on FS are coming up top of next
hour about ten minutes from now. We're gonna have an
update and on one of the big stories in the
world of sports, maybe the biggest over the past ever.
We are brought to you by the Dollar Shave Club
but six Blade razor, which brings noticeably smooth shaves of
(37:39):
six stainless steel blades for swift hair removal and a
lubricating strip that keeps saying smooth. Dollar Shave Club razors
are sold at Dollar Shave Club dot Com or in stores.
Sometimes you can't get to everything in the world of sports.
Or entertainment. Good thing. The guys are here to bring
you in case you missed it, and for that we
turn it over to our exact get the producer the
(38:00):
great lead to us Lap the lap Fellows. We've talked
a lot about Dan Snyder this week, whill a story
surfaced yesterday from a former employee testifying his name is
David Pokin, that there was a feud between Dan Snyder
and Washington Nationals owner Mr. Lerner, who sold him property
for parking lot. Well, Snyder thought he paid too much,
(38:23):
so his way of getting back at him was he
had his employee go into his sweet and pour milk
under the seats so that when his family came in
on game day it smelled like sour milk. I mean, yeah,
but does it work? I would I would think that
would work, right, Like if you would have to be
(38:44):
sour milk, right. Well, he went in on a non
game day to pour the milk so that it would
sour by the time the family came by. Yeah, but
some milk. Yeah, but see that that's maybe poor planning
because it did he look at the date when the
milk would expire. That's what I'm saying. Unless it's a
really hot environment. Turn on the heat. Yeah, yeah, I
don't know. I mean I that you know, I feel
(39:05):
like you could have done something better, Like there's you know,
if if anybody's ever ding dong ditch before. Yeah, like
what are your thoughts on interested? Yeah, I just know
the name any stories, I know the name. If you
wanted to prank somebody, wouldn't it be better to throw
like some sardines in somewhere, Yeah, like where you get
(39:25):
that instant stinking like even though you know it happened,
you can't get it out because also like when somebody
has to come out, Yeah, and when somebody has to
pick up a sardine, now their hands are gonna smell.
Uh you know. Now It's like like I just feel
like sardines or throwing like a piece of fish in
there would have been better than this. At a Washington
football team, Well, this was at FedEx Field. Learner had
(39:49):
a suite at the at the at the stadium, and
so you're going to jack up your own stadium to
get back at Okay, all right, it's and it's have
a subtle way to do it. You know you could
that's a subtle way. Well you can you can plead ignorance,
You can say I don't know how that snow got there? Okay,
(40:09):
all right? I mean what would you have done to
Dan Snyder if you wanted to get even lamar uh?
Sent him some some get taller pills and the mail.
That's not nice. Go on you too, oh manh yeah, listen,
(40:31):
I just you know, I feel like this we are
we just scratching the surface on some of the feels
like more and more of this stuff is coming out
the fact that this guy would feel comfortable enough to
drop a story that he threw sour mill because it's
basically vandalism, right, that's vandalism on his own established Like,
so he vandalized himself just because he couldn't stand Dan Snyder.
