the news that's got everybody a little bit shook in
the world of sports that came out a short time
ago that we talked about on the air, the Great
Franco Harris passed away according to reports, at the age
of seventy two. Obviously, as Eddie mentioned, this is on
(01:25):
you know, the doorstep of the fifty year anniversary of
the Immaculate Reception, one of the most historic plays in
the history of sports, not just football, and the plan
there because of the fifty year um anniversary of that,
they were going to retire his jersey this weekend. They
were playing the Raiders on Christmas Eve. It was a
big celebration there in Pittsburgh. They were going to do
(01:47):
a football life documentary on the NFL network, and so
three days before the Great Franco Harris passes away. Just, uh,
just tough situation. I know, LaVar obviously Penn State or Pittsburgh,
Steve Lare, that was somebody that was a big part
of your growing up and you know, majority of your
football life. Yes, I'm still in shock, just kind of
(02:09):
still in shock, trying trying to uh, trying to process it.
Just just got off the phone with um, a couple
of family members or whatever, just just close to the situation.
Just still trying to process at all. I don't know.
I don't want to discuss, you know what what my
phone call was. But I'm not ready yet. But uh
man playing out on national radio right now. Huh just shocked.
(02:34):
I'm shocked. It's not yeah, I'm just I don't know.
I'm at a loss right now. So, I mean Franco,
Franco is like he's he's like he's our he's our
gold standard. Like and when I say our, obviously everyone
who's ever ever gone to Penn State, anyone who's ever
represented school. UM, what he meant to you know, our
(02:58):
community in Pittsburgh, all things that he did to get
back to the community. Uh. I've known I've known Franco
since I was fourteen years old, and he's just always
been He's always been our role model. He he's always
been again what what you you want to strive to be?
(03:19):
He's just always been you know what, what's good, what's
good about us as as athletes, what's good about us
as people? And what we represent? So that's you know, ah, man,
it's just uh, I mean I lost family members. I
just a fount out all radio that I lots of
family member uh. And and so that's that's kind of
(03:42):
you know, this is a little bit uh, you know,
it's emotional moment I'm having right now. Yeah. When him, man,
what the Ohio State game? I was there? Yeah, jeez,
that's rough. Man. Well listen, it's uh, obviously a tough
(04:04):
thing to have to find out at any time, and
especially in the middle of doing a live show, and
and just to see I certainly would have liked to
have gotten this information in a different place, you know.
And and I think it's the you know, the feeling
of a lot of people are are sort of shook.
Like if you go on social media, people are is
this real? Like they are askets there. It's it's a
(04:24):
it's definitely real. It is definitely real. And man, just
there's just a lot of emotions. And there's a lot
of emotions right now. And I'm not just speaking for me,
I'm saying with the phone call I was just on,
it's it's a man, it's a lot of emotion. Yeah.
(04:45):
And then as we talked about he's just like a Manton.
You you you come down that elevator and there is every time,
every time, every time you just see you see the
immaculate reception at the Pittsburgh Airport and just a great
career and from all accounts, great dude and uh obviously
a penn Stater Pittsburgh Steeler and gone at seventy two.
(05:07):
That's that's crazy. Just a couple of days before they
honored him with the retired jersey and and all of
that stuff for the for the Raiders Steelers. Now that
adds another another element to that whole situation, and it
turns what was supposed to be a great moment into
a real tough one for a lot of people. So, uh,
any other details come out, we'll let you know. But
(05:28):
people should celebrate him though you know it's it's going
to be a lot of emotions and raw feelings right now,
but people should really, truly um do their best to
celebrate him because he he certainly is worthy of all
the celebration of all the things that he's done. Franco's
(05:48):
Italian Army, that was the army on man, this is
a whole lot of a whole lot of memorable you know,
things connected to to Franco, you know. And and that's
you know man, that's him and Lidell so so Lidell
Mitchell they were really really tight and they do this
annual event every every single year where they they raise money, um,
(06:14):
you know, for for a charitable cause. And him and
Lidell is like every time you see them, it's like
one of the coolest things seeing Lidell Mitchell and and
Frank o'harris, like it's it's weird. You start as as
you're getting older, you start to think about the great
ones that that you've you've been blessed enough to to
(06:36):
be around and learn from and experience their presence. And
Lenny more would have been the one that you know,
like you're like, you know, the Redding rocket is getting
up there and and age, and you start to prepare
yourself for the ones you know in life where they
may not be here anymore. But godly man, that's that's uh.
(06:59):
I guess it's never easy even if it if it
would have been a different name. It's just but that
name out of all names for for Eddie to say,
it's like, I'm a Pittsburgh Steelers fan, you know, what
I mean. So if he would have said Terry bradge Shaw,
you know, it's like, man, that would have hurt, but
it would have been like man like dang Terry, Terry Bradshaw,
(07:20):
you know, And the is you keep it moving. This
is different this one. This one hits all the way
in the house. This is in my house, this hits
this one hits home. So I don't know, man that
you know, I'm a I'm a find a way to feel,
you know, good enough for us to go ahead and
do what we need to do. But if I am
(07:40):
quiet at any point in time, y'all will forgive me.
If if I have quiet moments during the course of
the show, man, well listen, uh you know that's why
I mean, Brady and I will slap it up a little.
We'll be a little uh you know, we'll we'll goof
and uh we'll try and uh, you know, have fun
as as much as we can, obviously in a tough situation.
So that is the penn Stater. Like that's like we
(08:03):
didn't lose a pen Stater. We lost the pen Stater.
Like that's that's that's him. You know, I lost our guy.
But you gotta be you. You know, that's that's how
life works. And then you gotta again, you gotta celebrate
what what what matters most, which is what he did
while he was here. I mean, it was a life
(08:25):
well served and he got it. He got a lot
out of it, so a ton out of it. So
you know, there's that. Yeah, he always seemed like he
was in good mood too. He never seemed like he
was moved. Yeah, just kind of always smiling kinda yeah.
I just never like there was never any sort of
weird interview or anything that he did that sort of
(08:48):
came across as well, this guy thinks he's better than everybody,
and he thinks he and uh and that's kind of
rare for a guy with his credentials and his success.
So it's a it's a top one man. Um, it's
two pros and a cup of Joe. Here on Fox

for you here as we take you up until nine
am Eastern times, six o'clock Pacific. Alright, so, coming up next,
we are going to have an update on one situation
at the NFL at quarterback. One team is mulling over
a decision that could impact a playoff run. We'll have
(09:33):
that for you right here on fs ARE. Be sure

(09:54):
out with us as always on the I Heart Radio apps.
Coming up a little over ten minutes from now from
the tire Act dot Com studios, we are going to
have a discussion here about some decisions that have been
made in the world of football regarding the future of
two quarterbacks. We'll get into that for you right here
on fs ARE. Before we get to this story in
the NFL, any decision at quarterback for one other team
(10:17):
I want to let you know we are brought to
you by Gillette Fellas. It's time to stop treating your
groins like junk, introducing the Gillette Intimate Pubic Care Tremor.
It's a gentle and easy shade from America's number one
trusted men's grooming brand. Show your pubic regions some respect
with Gilette Intimate the best demand can get all Right's
Nick Sirianni, the pison passion that is the head coach
(10:38):
of the Philadelphia Eagles. He gave an update on his
quarterback Jalen Hurts yesterday, and let's see if it's a
little bit cleaner than the that's game f you, He
shouted at the Cowboys sideline. The last time they played
here was the Eagles coach. I don't put anything fast.
Jalen Hurts um as far as his mental and physical toughness,
So there's a chance he can play this week. He
(10:59):
is one of the toughest guys I know, and he
heals fast. He's a free His body is not like
yours are mine. So there it is. That's Nick Sierriani
talking about the situation at quarterback. Now. Robert sal outside
about Mike White apparently not being able to heal fast.
Like I mean, the contrast between coaches in the NFL
(11:22):
and the way they talk about this stuff is amazing.
But well, I mean Tony Romo did call it. He
said they were broken ribs in the game, and so
apparently he knew what was going on. It's much has
been diagnosed as that has anyone said they're broken ribs.
I saw that it was a rib fracture somewhere, but
I haven't seen that, you know, I have I haven't
seen absolutely stuff from a quote from Romo during the game. Yeah,
(11:44):
well it could have been his. It was a transcript.
It's just weird. He was able to finish the game,
but you know, hasn't been able to play. S's a
little odd. It's a little a little sub Did he
practice last week as well? I thought so. But look,
I mean he saw ten doctors. Maybe it was the
eleventh doctor he should have seen that would have cleared him.
Maybe they're able to practice if you're visiting so many doctors.
(12:06):
I mean, for anyone who's going to a doctor's office,
it's like you go in, you sit there, you fill
out some information. Maybe they already have it. I don't know,
but you're sitting you're reading a magazine that's probably at
least three four months maybe six months old, you know,
and then and you're just sitting there waiting. You're you're
waiting to finally go. And mind you, you set up
(12:26):
an appointment, you know, so what in the hell could
the doctor be doing this entire time if he's got
all these appointments right, like they knew you were coming,
and yet they can't get there in time. And then
you gotta sit there and you gotta wait. So now
you're sitting, you're waiting, you're waiting. They finally bring you in.
They probably go through some general questions for general health
(12:46):
and you know, height, weight or something like. Maybe they
give you a hernia in check. I don't know. But
the whole point is like it never makes sense when
the doctor just can't be a prompt on time to
ena of his appointments. And I'm sure there's some doctor
out there he's shaking his he's been like whoa, you know,
we sometimes you have to deal with a certain patient.
It takes a little longer paperwork or some other things
like come on, pal, figure it out, all right, We've
(13:09):
we've We've got other business models that we can figure
it out. We can figure this out in medicine too.
My kids doctor is in forty five minutes to an
hour late every single time, every time, every time it's
a kid because Lucy couldn't take a shot. Is that
what it is? I mean, dude, figure it out. I don't.
I don't. I'm not trying to tell you how to
do your job. I'm just saying do your job, better,
(13:31):
do it faster. Yeah, that's all we need. So if
somebody could speed this up, we can get an answer
on Mike White. We'd appreciate it. They got a Thursday
game to look after, all right, but we will. We
will get to all the latest developments on the Jets
in their situation at quarterbacks. You know what if if
they don't have a sense of humor, they can kiss
my ass, all right, and we'll just call that right
now and you can print it. Okay, kiss my ass
(13:54):
if you don't have a sense take so seriously, though,
like every think everything else in this world. Fair. We'll
tell Santa Claus and now the life of me an injury.
Besides ribs now, Ian Rappaport was dealing with multiple rib fractions.
This is really just making me hungry right now. Yeah,
I cook some of the other day. I'm just gonna say, like,
where's your favorite rib spot on my house? So you
(14:17):
cook your favorite ribs? Okay, pretty good? And here's my
thing here. Like beef ribs or pork ribs? I like
poor I like poor baby back ribs. I think are
better than beef ribs. I do both. I will say
I like pork ribs better. Yeah, I think they're meteor Yeah,
(14:38):
I think beef yeah, I think so yeah they are.
Yeah wow, even coach, I'm not sure I agree with
that they are. Um, here's the thing, I um. I
put them on top of a bit of five guys
French fries. I don't. I don't make my own fries
that d C d C coming in there with the
(15:00):
five guys. Yeah. Yeah, so I love their fries. Their
fries are the best. Fries are so good. You just
put a whole thing of them into a big old,
you know, kind of pan. Did their fries come in
a brown bag and a white cup, white cup and
a brown bag with the with the grease spots on it?
(15:20):
What is it with a brown bag that makes everything
taste better and fries. They just they know that the
product is undeniable, so they don't have to waste any
money on anything else. They know you're gonna enjoy that
forty ounce. Yeah that can't. They know you're going to
enjoy them fries. Yeah. I bought a forty ounce for
I think it was a gift for somebody at the
(15:41):
liquor story. Now that was just to get him migrated. Now.
I bought it. I bought it for as a gift
for somebody, like some sort of a gag gift. And
the guy said, you want a bag? And I was like, yeah,
you try to give me a black plastic bag. What
are you doing on? Man? Like, get that brown stuff
in there. Let's go and wrap that up. Let's get
it go. Just the St. Louis style. Um, spare ribs,
(16:05):
it's their meteor. Okay, ribs are good. Interesting. I've had
some beef ribs out in Texas. I loved him. You
know who else does really good beef ribs? Joe Davis
been to his house for that green egg action. I'm
just saying, dude, he can make some ribs now whatever,
that's fine. You know what he has Joe Davis has
(16:25):
got a big green egg. He does, does he? He does?
Fired up with that big green egg. Any one of
those lifetime warranty, you know, that big in the studio,
I'd be great. Can you imagine that, like Roberto, would
you be able to like handle the green egg and
the show at the same time? Yeah? Yeah, in the
(16:45):
smoker and yeah, but but there's no ventilation in the room.
You just gotta deal with from that door. Get news
for you. They've dealt with worse. They dealt with worth
in that studio and I got used where they dealt
with worse yesterday at the end of the show. If
(17:06):
my memory serves me correctly, they got a little present
from I don't know that. Just Berto was cheating. The
bar was cheating all the way down. I did pull
them all the way down. I didn't want to. I
(17:26):
pulled it all the way down. Bro, who's yours? So yeah, absolutely,
I want to make sure they go every bit of it. Wow,
he took the he took the silencer off his gun.
He's like, no, no, no, you're and aim it was
a full moon bear let go. Oh yeah, wow, there's
(17:52):
there's boot particles there. Oh yeah, I guess if that's
the way we were interpreted. I was, but I was
wondering why you came back in, because you left the
studio and then came back into hurry. I'm like, oh, no,
I'm gonna get I'm gonna catch a stray here because
you're trying to get these other guys. So that's just,
(18:12):
you know, that's terrible what is happening here at the studio.
But you know, hey, we're all good. So back to
the Eagles in their situation at quarterback. When it comes
to Jaylors, we were talking about, Yeah, I think we were.
I forget who knows the ribs? Yeah, I delivered a
bowl yesterday after the show that that's what we were
(18:35):
talking about. Yeah, your ribs aren't hurt. I mean, you know,
you can't have clothes over top of your head. I
guess you can have a glove. I guess you can
have And I'll just say this, by the way, the
best ribs to finish the point with my brother's ribs. Hey, Brady,
I brought ribs in for you when you were in
studio one time. You were in studio one time and
(18:56):
had a long time ago. God, they were good though
your brother and cook. You want to know some really
really dope wings and it's a chain. Um was um
um Damon's You ever had dams from around? You? Remember Damons?
Of course? Yeah, the big TVs you can tune in
(19:19):
at your table into which which which big screen you
want to watch? Yeah? Absolutely they had to. Yeah, the
audio was at your tame. Their ribs were fire Damon's
fire ribs. Yeah. Anyways, yeah, famous daves they got now?
Is that that's a chain too? Yeah? Is that out here? Yeah,
(19:41):
there's there's some out in the West, the favorite Daves
in California. You're serious famous daves? You ever you said
you went to see? Uh? Dr Andrew's Dreamland is off
the chain to Dreamlands. Fantastic? Yeah, Dreamland. I mean there's
so we could do this forever. Yeah, good stuff. That
(20:01):
pulled me out of the stupor seed a fat boy
and me. Is it coming out? That makes me happy?
You know? Yeah? There you got famous and that's there's
a few others. The name is Dave's ribs are the
lick for certain for certain around Yeah. Yeah. With their
(20:24):
French Their French fries are good too, real good. Yeah. Yeah,
I mean I have to go find it's not a
sponsor of this show, so I'm not willing to give
them that much credit. I'll tell you that right now.
Well maybe they will now, yeah, maybe some ribs, I
mean had some ribs, and for sure it would be
(20:45):
land next to me, Irvine, Famous Daves, Victorville. That's too far.
It's big time to go only though, that's all. I
don't need it. I don't need to go South California.
We still have problems out here. You know, got to
be careful. Yeah, yeah, the big paint can of a
(21:06):
hand sanitizer. Every time you bump into it. You just
gotta make sure. You gotta be gotta be you know,
clear here. You gotta be safe everybody. But on the
subject of the Dallas Cowboys in the Philadelphia Eagles, can
I ask you guys this, is there any possible way
Dallas gets out of this weekend and just feels great
(21:28):
about things? Because I'm seriously, because it's kind of a
lose lose if if Jalen Hurts plays, or if if
if Gardner Minshew plays and they win the game. I
mean it's Gardner Minshew. He's a backup, but you know
he's kind of dealing with his own loss and Mike
Leach and he was just he was excused to go
speak at Mike leach his funeral. You know, he's kind
(21:49):
of and and you know, again he's a backup. And
then if you lose, you lost to a backup. Dallas
is screwed either way. This is a loser situation where
the Dallas ow boys, So I kind of feel like
maybe the story isn't as important on the Philly side
of it feels like they're gonna get, you know, home
field advantage. All they've got to do is win one
more game this season. Dallas is kind of in this
(22:10):
awkward spot, especially after all that trash that uh we
are Michael Parson agree and disagree at the same time.
But I'm gonna let you go first and have it.
You you can have it. But I'm an I'm gonna agree,
but I'm gonna disagree to Oh. I mean, I just
would just I would just generally say this. I'm kind
of with Jonas on this, Like, I don't know that
(22:32):
there's any upside to this weekend because the expectation is
by oddsmakers there was a four or five point favor
or something like that they should win the game, they're
going up against the backup. There's all those like storylines
to it, and if they don't, then it's just like, well,
here you go again, same old Cowboys. I mean, I
just I don't know. I think there's there to your point, Jonis,
(22:54):
there's there. There really is no upside to this for
for the Boys. Uh in this case, Yeah, I think
it's it's it's all like basically, Nick Sirianni and the
Eagles can go out there, play loose, play free, and
even though there's obviously big divisional stakes on the line,
they can still sit there and say we'll find the
backup quarterback. It is what it is, or maybe they're not.
By the way, if Jalen Hurts, can heal in time
to be able to you know, actually, I mean his
(23:15):
body is different than everybody else's. Um, you know, Jalen
Hurts being out for me, I still look at it
from from this perspective. Um, he doesn't play defense for
for the Philadelphia Eagles, and so the wind hare for
(23:36):
Dallas perceivably is have a good day on offense, like
you expect to see the Cowboys defense be able to
have a level of of success that they may not
have had if Jalen Hurts is out there and that's
that extra dimension and that ability to leave the pocket
and run and hurt you with his legs. But Jalen
(23:59):
hurt doesn't play defense for the Philadelphia Eagles. And and
so what I would say is the win that could
take place for Dallas and and the way they could
leave the game feeling positive is if their offense has
a a solid day at the office. I won't even
say phenomenal, I won't say spectacular. I'll just say if
(24:22):
they have a solid showing where they come out and
they handle their business and you can see it like
how we talk about the way Philadelphia's offense has looked,
and it's looked very balanced. They've they've been able to
run the ball, they've been able to throw the ball.
If this is a team, the Dallas team is a
team where they should have that type of balance as well,
(24:45):
because they have a quarterback that can throw the ball,
they have receivers that can catch the ball, and they
have running backs that can run the ball. I would
like to see their offense have a solid day for
it to be a win. Like just think about what
you're saying. You've got like, I'm serious, like Mike McCarthy,
offensive minded head coach, Dak Prescott, franchise quarterback money Zeke
(25:10):
Elliott has already been paid, like all of this stuff
on offense, and still as we approach Christmas, we still
have questions about whether or not the offense can perform
and get it done. And you're just looking for moral
victories more so from the offense, or or looking for
the offense to shine this late in the season just
(25:33):
to feel better about them going into the into the playoffs.
That's crazy. It's kind of damning for that entire side
of the football that that's where we're at. I mean,
when you got I mean honestly, like I get that
there's no real upside when you're playing against a backup
quarterback like that. I get that, But wouldn't you guys
agree they need to have a positive showing against this defense,
(25:58):
Like you can't use Allen Hurts as an excuse for
not having a good outing on on on the offensive
side of the ball. If your Dallas Cowboys, in fact,
you should say this puts more pressure on their defense
to to perform on on Sunday or Saturday is a
Saturday or Sunday, Saturday, Saturday, and that that that this
(26:19):
is one of those moments where let's take full advantage
and let's throttle down on these dudes. So to me,
that's that's the bigger To me, that is the bigger
storyline here is what will Dallas's offense do because if
they do, in fact, let this game get away, which
they very well could let this game get away from them,
(26:42):
if it happens, it's going to be because their offense
was not good enough in this game period. Yeah, well listen, uh,
Michael Parsons, they better, they better. Oh yeah, I'd like
to see that that go down at some point and
look at maybe Jordan Mylotta will have some Christmas carols
(27:05):
or something for us, uh, you know, getting ready for
the holidays as well too. That that that awesome phenomen
all right, it is, uh, two pros and a cup
of Joe here on fs are. By the way, So
Boe Nicks is coming back? Here? Is that the the
word out of Oregon. He's decided he's gonna come on back.
Huh like that were like two days later? This he's
coming back a big deal. Um. Kind of interesting that
(27:28):
he's decided to come back in a great year at
Oregon Um. You know, his offensive coording are left to
go take the head coaching job at Arizona State. And
I think if you look at this year's draft class
as compared to next year's, it's maybe would have been
more advantageous for him to come out now. And the
reason why I say that is, you know, if you
(27:49):
look at Bryce Young, who I'm a huge fan of,
I think he should be the first quarterback taking this
draft class. But people have concerns about his size, and
so that's gonna be a knock on him. Maybe other
people don't have him, or other teams don't have him
as their number one guy. You look at Will Levis,
He's got the arm, he's got the size, the intelligence,
to toughness, all that stuff. Film didn't look good this year,
(28:10):
was in a new offense with rich Scan Garrillo, who
was literally a one and done it in Kentucky and
now he's gone. Well, Levis is coming out in the draft.
He's coming off some bad film. But when you see
him a T shirt and shorts, you watch him throw,
people are gonna be really impressed. You know, Anthony Richson
is a absolute you know, physical freak. I mean, he's
just I don't know that you can compare him to anything.
(28:32):
He's that you know, he's that much of an athlete,
and he actually has some good, you know, fundamentals and
tools as far as how he plays from the pocket,
he's just in consistent with it, but maybe the strongest
arm in the draft. And I could see him, depending
on how people look at his skill set, as being
a guy that goes really high in this draft too.
He's jacked, you can do backflips. He just he I mean,
(28:56):
he's he's Honestly, I've never seen anyone like him. Like
people want to try to make like Will Levis and
Josh Allen, you know, comparable, it's not. Anthony Richardson is
the is the closer comp to and with Josh Allen
as far as you know when you watched Josh Allen
and Wyoming and how raw he was. But with like
(29:16):
this athleticism, then you've got Anthony Richardson who takes up
to another notch like again Alliser for an arm. He again,
he actually has some really good fundamentals. At times he
just doesn't doesn't do it consistently, but his ability to
run and play tough and all that, like that's unquestioned,
like you can see it watching him, um and then
(29:37):
c J. Stroud, who was who's maybe the most accurate
of all these quarterbacks in this draft class from Ohio State.
But that's kind of the top four, if you will.
And I think bow Nicks, you know, honestly, after that
is probably somewhere in that mix. Whereas next year, like
you know, you're, you're You've got Caleb Williams, Drake May
like it literally starts there, and then the other quarterbacks
(29:58):
fall in line after that. You know, this draft class,
I think there's different you know, thoughts on the order
of these quarterbacks and where they should be. And I
think Nix might, because of the season he had this
past year, fall into that group. And I just wonder
what another year in organ is really gonna do for
him in a draft class where I think at best
he's gonna be the third quarterback taking to that draft class.
(30:19):
In this one, maybe some people view him ahead of
you know what Richardson and Will Levis put on tape
this year, because bo Nick's tape is probably better than
those two. I just don't know if his upside is
the same as what those two guys are capable of.

all right, oh uh huh, I just thought us up.
So that's it's so dumb what I was just thinking,
(31:50):
What are you thinking about? It's like, man, we what
to you? It wouldn't be the first time. Yeah, where's
this going? Uh? We lost Peach two as well. Another
Niitney line has gone to Niitney Lion Heaven? Do you
know that story? Brady? P twenty two? Is this mountain
(32:15):
lion that I guess would show up on these cameras
out here in l A and it's finally caught up
to her, I believe, And so they tagged Peach. I
think they put a king on him. It's dead now,
whatever it is. They showed him too. They showed his
body and they were like, yeah, they're making sure they
check on his uh, check on the cat's vitals and
(32:38):
stuff like that. Looking at that thing like it looked
like a stuffed animal day and no way that thing
coming back to life. So apparently this thing got hit
by a car or something and and it passed and
it was just kind of it became like this, you know,
quote unquote celebrity. These losers did a walk for it
(32:59):
like they together over the weekend, and like a memorial walk,
A memorial walk for this mountain lion that tried to
play Frogger on the freeway and got hit by a car.
Come on, what are you talking about? Be more elusive? Hey,
(33:20):
I almost hit a coyote this morning. Guess what. That
thing had his head on the swivel got out of
the way. I'm not doing a walk for that coyote
because it got out of the way. Two rest easy,
pea two like r I p. Twenty two. Hey wow, okay, fellas,
(33:41):
it's time to stop treating your groins like junk. Introducing
the Gillette Intimate Pubic Care Trimmer, a gentle and easy
shade from American's number one trusted men's grooming brand. Show
your pubic readson some respect with Gilette Intimate the best
of it I can get. There are some good things
that happened, and there's some bad, and then there's some
(34:03):
downright ugly things. It's time for good, bad and all
right to lead the lap. Who's got like this week?
This week we start with the good, as we always do. LaVar,
you have good this week? Yeah, I'm just gonna go
with we're super close to Christmas and a lot to
be thankful for, a lot to be grateful for. Man,
(34:25):
sounds like horrible timing to say it, but you know,
there's gonna be people that didn't make it to Christmas
this year, um won't make it to see a new year.
So the fact that we're closer to to Christmas and
and obviously there's gonna be some really good football being
play We're getting closer to two playoffs. I think that's
the good to focus in on, is like we're we're
almost here, We're almost too Christmas. It's in the air. Yeah. Yeah.
(34:50):
And then for some and for some there's there's that
obviously or actually snakes that are living in your Christmas
tree that you've brought into your house and might have
not a known that that snake was there until it
slithered out and he was, you know, grabbing it and
removing it from your crib. What do you mean what happened?
You didn't see that on the news. It was just
(35:11):
reported on on the on the news that this family
brought home a Christmas tree and there was a snake
living in the trub they discovered. I mean, I guess
I could have gave that to you for b Q News.
But yeah, it was I don't know what type of
snake it was. I'm sure um, it didn't look like
it was poisonous the way the guy was handling the
(35:31):
snake and rescued it. And hopefully it didn't suffer the
same demise as Peach twenty two. Hopefully it was released
back into the wild. Brandy, what do he calls candy asses?
Will that happen in Dublin? Yeah? I wish it wouldn't
(35:55):
happen here. I've embarrassed. Actually didn't see those people on
a wall, Like, come on, manager, Christmas vacation. If you're
gonna walk around celebrating p. Twenty two, did they bring
their chihuahuas unleashes? It's just it's disgustingly, it's disgusting. And
this is your community, Lee, this is your southern California,
not mine. Yours. Sure, I'll take that, alright, guys, you
(36:20):
can't have good without the bad Jonas? What was bad
this week? Anybody'd been to them all this week? Anybody
happen to kind of go out and try and get
some Christmas shopping done? Yeah, it's a it's a miserable, awful,
horrible experience. It's just terrible. The parking situation everywhere is bad.
(36:41):
It's just the people are rude. Everybody's walking around with
like a Venta Lata, Coco whatever Moco coffee in their hand,
with a bunch of bags on one arm. They don't
they they're not paying attention where they're going. It's just
a miserable experience. And for some people that want to
be efficient and know where they're going and get in
(37:04):
and get out, they're not allowed to do it because
those people got a stall and wait around and and
look at everything and oh look it's a it's a
fake Christmas tree. Yeah, it's the same one that was
over by the other kiosk right up the way. We
don't have to stop and look at every single one
of them. It's miserable. It's an awful experience. So that's
my bad for the week. From bed to worse. Brady,
(37:27):
what was ugly this week? Uh? Well, I don't know
if it was ugly this week. Maybe it's been ugly
for a while. It's been going on for a while.
It could be going on for sure today in these
final hours, do you guys know it's the early signing
period today, so a lot of high school uh student
athletes will be signing out of their future schools to
go play and probably it rolled early and in this January.
(37:49):
I would assume for most of these guys and uh,
well patn or Doozy, that this is a weird one
to me. He he came out and said, I don't
know what he knows about Drake. He was the quarterback
at North Carolina. But he's basically said that there's been,
you know, a couple of teams who have reached out
and tried to basically entice Drake made it come to
their school for five million bucks for a college quarterback.
(38:14):
By the way, I don't doubt that that's not true.
But why is Patton Ardozy, who's the head coach for Pitt,
in the know on this? Like why does he know this?
Shouldn't it be Mack Brown? And you would see in
North Carolina he's talking about who do you think who
do you think the two teams were? I think it's
Nor Doozy because maybe I don't know. Jordan Addison, who
(38:35):
was the political off win or two years ago, was
taken off their roster and Pitt. So maybe Nardozy is
bringing this up as a way of saying, maybe it's
a team there in southern California that's oh man, I'll
put it this way. I've heard explicitly after they played
one team this year a player was offered seven figures
on the field from that team. Oh yeah, that ugly.
(39:04):
It's like that now, uh million? Sheeez? Games Sol not
told God. Yeah, that's a lot of money to get offered.
You gotta think about that. Would you take if you
guys are playing. I couldn't leave. Pence Day is a
different era. Though I might have left today, I wouldn't

the news that's got everybody a little bit shook in
the world of sports that came out a short time
ago that we talked about on the air, the Great
Franco Harris passed away according to reports, at the age
of seventy two. Obviously, as Eddie mentioned, this is on
(01:25):
you know, the doorstep of the fifty year anniversary of
the Immaculate Reception, one of the most historic plays in
the history of sports, not just football, and the plan
there because of the fifty year um anniversary of that,
they were going to retire his jersey this weekend. They
were playing the Raiders on Christmas Eve. It was a
big celebration there in Pittsburgh. They were going to do
(01:47):
a football life documentary on the NFL network, and so
three days before the Great Franco Harris passes away. Just, uh,
just tough situation. I know, LaVar obviously Penn State or Pittsburgh,
Steve Lare, that was somebody that was a big part
of your growing up and you know, majority of your
football life. Yes, I'm still in shock, just kind of
(02:09):
still in shock, trying trying to uh, trying to process it.
Just just got off the phone with um, a couple
of family members or whatever, just just close to the situation.
Just still trying to process at all. I don't know.
I don't want to discuss, you know what what my
phone call was. But I'm not ready yet. But uh
man playing out on national radio right now. Huh just shocked.
(02:34):
I'm shocked. It's not yeah, I'm just I don't know.
I'm at a loss right now. So, I mean Franco,
Franco is like he's he's like he's our he's our
gold standard. Like and when I say our, obviously everyone
who's ever ever gone to Penn State, anyone who's ever
represented school. UM, what he meant to you know, our
(02:58):
community in Pittsburgh, all things that he did to get
back to the community. Uh. I've known I've known Franco
since I was fourteen years old, and he's just always
been He's always been our role model. He he's always
been again what what you you want to strive to be?
(03:19):
He's just always been you know what, what's good, what's
good about us as as athletes, what's good about us
as people? And what we represent? So that's you know, ah, man,
it's just uh, I mean I lost family members. I
just a fount out all radio that I lots of
family member uh. And and so that's that's kind of
(03:42):
you know, this is a little bit uh, you know,
it's emotional moment I'm having right now. Yeah. When him, man,
what the Ohio State game? I was there? Yeah, jeez,
that's rough. Man. Well listen, it's uh, obviously a tough
(04:04):
thing to have to find out at any time, and
especially in the middle of doing a live show, and
and just to see I certainly would have liked to
have gotten this information in a different place, you know.
And and I think it's the you know, the feeling
of a lot of people are are sort of shook.
Like if you go on social media, people are is
this real? Like they are askets there. It's it's a
(04:24):
it's definitely real. It is definitely real. And man, just
there's just a lot of emotions. And there's a lot
of emotions right now. And I'm not just speaking for me,
I'm saying with the phone call I was just on,
it's it's a man, it's a lot of emotion. Yeah.
(04:45):
And then as we talked about he's just like a Manton.
You you you come down that elevator and there is every time,
every time, every time you just see you see the
immaculate reception at the Pittsburgh Airport and just a great
career and from all accounts, great dude and uh obviously
a penn Stater Pittsburgh Steeler and gone at seventy two.
(05:07):
That's that's crazy. Just a couple of days before they
honored him with the retired jersey and and all of
that stuff for the for the Raiders Steelers. Now that
adds another another element to that whole situation, and it
turns what was supposed to be a great moment into
a real tough one for a lot of people. So, uh,
any other details come out, we'll let you know. But
(05:28):
people should celebrate him though you know it's it's going
to be a lot of emotions and raw feelings right now,
but people should really, truly um do their best to
celebrate him because he he certainly is worthy of all
the celebration of all the things that he's done. Franco's
(05:48):
Italian Army, that was the army on man, this is
a whole lot of a whole lot of memorable you know,
things connected to to Franco, you know. And and that's
you know man, that's him and Lidell so so Lidell
Mitchell they were really really tight and they do this
annual event every every single year where they they raise money, um,
(06:14):
you know, for for a charitable cause. And him and
Lidell is like every time you see them, it's like
one of the coolest things seeing Lidell Mitchell and and
Frank o'harris, like it's it's weird. You start as as
you're getting older, you start to think about the great
ones that that you've you've been blessed enough to to
(06:36):
be around and learn from and experience their presence. And
Lenny more would have been the one that you know,
like you're like, you know, the Redding rocket is getting
up there and and age, and you start to prepare
yourself for the ones you know in life where they
may not be here anymore. But godly man, that's that's uh.
(06:59):
I guess it's never easy even if it if it
would have been a different name. It's just but that
name out of all names for for Eddie to say,
it's like, I'm a Pittsburgh Steelers fan, you know, what
I mean. So if he would have said Terry bradge Shaw,
you know, it's like, man, that would have hurt, but
it would have been like man like dang Terry, Terry Bradshaw,
(07:20):
you know, And the is you keep it moving. This
is different this one. This one hits all the way
in the house. This is in my house, this hits
this one hits home. So I don't know, man that
you know, I'm a I'm a find a way to feel,
you know, good enough for us to go ahead and
do what we need to do. But if I am
(07:40):
quiet at any point in time, y'all will forgive me.
If if I have quiet moments during the course of
the show, man, well listen, uh you know that's why
I mean, Brady and I will slap it up a little.
We'll be a little uh you know, we'll we'll goof
and uh we'll try and uh, you know, have fun
as as much as we can, obviously in a tough situation.
So that is the penn Stater. Like that's like we
(08:03):
didn't lose a pen Stater. We lost the pen Stater.
Like that's that's that's him. You know, I lost our guy.
But you gotta be you. You know, that's that's how
life works. And then you gotta again, you gotta celebrate
what what what matters most, which is what he did
while he was here. I mean, it was a life
(08:25):
well served and he got it. He got a lot
out of it, so a ton out of it. So
you know, there's that. Yeah, he always seemed like he
was in good mood too. He never seemed like he
was moved. Yeah, just kind of always smiling kinda yeah.
I just never like there was never any sort of
weird interview or anything that he did that sort of
(08:48):
came across as well, this guy thinks he's better than everybody,
and he thinks he and uh and that's kind of
rare for a guy with his credentials and his success.
So it's a it's a top one man. Um, it's
two pros and a cup of Joe. Here on Fox
Sports Radio, LaVar Arrington, Brady Quinn Jonas knocks so that
you can hang out with us. Is always on the
I Heart Radio apps. So again, Uh, Franco Harris, the
(09:11):
Great Franco Harris passing away a short time ago at
the age of seventy two, and we will give you
any details that come out on that. We'll have that
for you here as we take you up until nine
am Eastern times, six o'clock Pacific. Alright, so, coming up next,
we are going to have an update on one situation
at the NFL at quarterback. One team is mulling over
a decision that could impact a playoff run. We'll have
(09:33):
that for you right here on fs ARE. Be sure
to catch live editions of Two Pros and a Cup
of Joe with Brady Quinn, LaVar Arrington and Jonas Knocks
week days at six am Eastern three am Pacific on

and a Cup of Joe, Fox Sports Radio, LaVar Arrington,
Brady Quinn, Jonas Knocks. Are you here. You can hang
(09:54):
out with us as always on the I Heart Radio apps.
Coming up a little over ten minutes from now from
the tire Act dot Com studios, we are going to
have a discussion here about some decisions that have been
made in the world of football regarding the future of
two quarterbacks. We'll get into that for you right here
on fs ARE. Before we get to this story in
the NFL, any decision at quarterback for one other team
(10:17):
I want to let you know we are brought to
you by Gillette Fellas. It's time to stop treating your
groins like junk, introducing the Gillette Intimate Pubic Care Tremor.
It's a gentle and easy shade from America's number one
trusted men's grooming brand. Show your pubic regions some respect
with Gilette Intimate the best demand can get all Right's
Nick Sirianni, the pison passion that is the head coach
(10:38):
of the Philadelphia Eagles. He gave an update on his
quarterback Jalen Hurts yesterday, and let's see if it's a
little bit cleaner than the that's game f you, He
shouted at the Cowboys sideline. The last time they played
here was the Eagles coach. I don't put anything fast.
Jalen Hurts um as far as his mental and physical toughness,
So there's a chance he can play this week. He
(10:59):
is one of the toughest guys I know, and he
heals fast. He's a free His body is not like
yours are mine. So there it is. That's Nick Sierriani
talking about the situation at quarterback. Now. Robert sal outside
about Mike White apparently not being able to heal fast.
Like I mean, the contrast between coaches in the NFL
(11:22):
and the way they talk about this stuff is amazing.
But well, I mean Tony Romo did call it. He
said they were broken ribs in the game, and so
apparently he knew what was going on. It's much has
been diagnosed as that has anyone said they're broken ribs.
I saw that it was a rib fracture somewhere, but
I haven't seen that, you know, I have I haven't
seen absolutely stuff from a quote from Romo during the game. Yeah,
(11:44):
well it could have been his. It was a transcript.
It's just weird. He was able to finish the game,
but you know, hasn't been able to play. S's a
little odd. It's a little a little sub Did he
practice last week as well? I thought so. But look,
I mean he saw ten doctors. Maybe it was the
eleventh doctor he should have seen that would have cleared him.
Maybe they're able to practice if you're visiting so many doctors.
(12:06):
I mean, for anyone who's going to a doctor's office,
it's like you go in, you sit there, you fill
out some information. Maybe they already have it. I don't know,
but you're sitting you're reading a magazine that's probably at
least three four months maybe six months old, you know,
and then and you're just sitting there waiting. You're you're
waiting to finally go. And mind you, you set up
(12:26):
an appointment, you know, so what in the hell could
the doctor be doing this entire time if he's got
all these appointments right, like they knew you were coming,
and yet they can't get there in time. And then
you gotta sit there and you gotta wait. So now
you're sitting, you're waiting, you're waiting. They finally bring you in.
They probably go through some general questions for general health
(12:46):
and you know, height, weight or something like. Maybe they
give you a hernia in check. I don't know. But
the whole point is like it never makes sense when
the doctor just can't be a prompt on time to
ena of his appointments. And I'm sure there's some doctor
out there he's shaking his he's been like whoa, you know,
we sometimes you have to deal with a certain patient.
It takes a little longer paperwork or some other things
like come on, pal, figure it out, all right, We've
(13:09):
we've We've got other business models that we can figure
it out. We can figure this out in medicine too.
My kids doctor is in forty five minutes to an
hour late every single time, every time, every time it's
a kid because Lucy couldn't take a shot. Is that
what it is? I mean, dude, figure it out. I don't.
I don't. I'm not trying to tell you how to
do your job. I'm just saying do your job, better,
(13:31):
do it faster. Yeah, that's all we need. So if
somebody could speed this up, we can get an answer
on Mike White. We'd appreciate it. They got a Thursday
game to look after, all right, but we will. We
will get to all the latest developments on the Jets
in their situation at quarterbacks. You know what if if
they don't have a sense of humor, they can kiss
my ass, all right, and we'll just call that right
now and you can print it. Okay, kiss my ass
(13:54):
if you don't have a sense take so seriously, though,
like every think everything else in this world. Fair. We'll
tell Santa Claus and now the life of me an injury.
Besides ribs now, Ian Rappaport was dealing with multiple rib fractions.
This is really just making me hungry right now. Yeah,
I cook some of the other day. I'm just gonna say, like,
where's your favorite rib spot on my house? So you
(14:17):
cook your favorite ribs? Okay, pretty good? And here's my
thing here. Like beef ribs or pork ribs? I like
poor I like poor baby back ribs. I think are
better than beef ribs. I do both. I will say
I like pork ribs better. Yeah, I think they're meteor Yeah,
(14:38):
I think beef yeah, I think so yeah they are.
Yeah wow, even coach, I'm not sure I agree with
that they are. Um, here's the thing, I um. I
put them on top of a bit of five guys
French fries. I don't. I don't make my own fries
that d C d C coming in there with the
(15:00):
five guys. Yeah. Yeah, so I love their fries. Their
fries are the best. Fries are so good. You just
put a whole thing of them into a big old,
you know, kind of pan. Did their fries come in
a brown bag and a white cup, white cup and
a brown bag with the with the grease spots on it?
(15:20):
What is it with a brown bag that makes everything
taste better and fries. They just they know that the
product is undeniable, so they don't have to waste any
money on anything else. They know you're gonna enjoy that
forty ounce. Yeah that can't. They know you're going to
enjoy them fries. Yeah. I bought a forty ounce for
I think it was a gift for somebody at the
(15:41):
liquor story. Now that was just to get him migrated. Now.
I bought it. I bought it for as a gift
for somebody, like some sort of a gag gift. And
the guy said, you want a bag? And I was like, yeah,
you try to give me a black plastic bag. What
are you doing on? Man? Like, get that brown stuff
in there. Let's go and wrap that up. Let's get
it go. Just the St. Louis style. Um, spare ribs,
(16:05):
it's their meteor. Okay, ribs are good. Interesting. I've had
some beef ribs out in Texas. I loved him. You
know who else does really good beef ribs? Joe Davis
been to his house for that green egg action. I'm
just saying, dude, he can make some ribs now whatever,
that's fine. You know what he has Joe Davis has
(16:25):
got a big green egg. He does, does he? He does?
Fired up with that big green egg. Any one of
those lifetime warranty, you know, that big in the studio,
I'd be great. Can you imagine that, like Roberto, would
you be able to like handle the green egg and
the show at the same time? Yeah? Yeah, in the
(16:45):
smoker and yeah, but but there's no ventilation in the room.
You just gotta deal with from that door. Get news
for you. They've dealt with worse. They dealt with worth
in that studio and I got used where they dealt
with worse yesterday at the end of the show. If
(17:06):
my memory serves me correctly, they got a little present
from I don't know that. Just Berto was cheating. The
bar was cheating all the way down. I did pull
them all the way down. I didn't want to. I
(17:26):
pulled it all the way down. Bro, who's yours? So yeah, absolutely,
I want to make sure they go every bit of it. Wow,
he took the he took the silencer off his gun.
He's like, no, no, no, you're and aim it was
a full moon bear let go. Oh yeah, wow, there's
(17:52):
there's boot particles there. Oh yeah, I guess if that's
the way we were interpreted. I was, but I was
wondering why you came back in, because you left the
studio and then came back into hurry. I'm like, oh, no,
I'm gonna get I'm gonna catch a stray here because
you're trying to get these other guys. So that's just,
(18:12):
you know, that's terrible what is happening here at the studio.
But you know, hey, we're all good. So back to
the Eagles in their situation at quarterback. When it comes
to Jaylors, we were talking about, Yeah, I think we were.
I forget who knows the ribs? Yeah, I delivered a
bowl yesterday after the show that that's what we were
(18:35):
talking about. Yeah, your ribs aren't hurt. I mean, you know,
you can't have clothes over top of your head. I
guess you can have a glove. I guess you can
have And I'll just say this, by the way, the
best ribs to finish the point with my brother's ribs. Hey, Brady,
I brought ribs in for you when you were in
studio one time. You were in studio one time and
(18:56):
had a long time ago. God, they were good though
your brother and cook. You want to know some really
really dope wings and it's a chain. Um was um
um Damon's You ever had dams from around? You? Remember Damons?
Of course? Yeah, the big TVs you can tune in
(19:19):
at your table into which which which big screen you
want to watch? Yeah? Absolutely they had to. Yeah, the
audio was at your tame. Their ribs were fire Damon's
fire ribs. Yeah. Anyways, yeah, famous daves they got now?
Is that that's a chain too? Yeah? Is that out here? Yeah,
(19:41):
there's there's some out in the West, the favorite Daves
in California. You're serious famous daves? You ever you said
you went to see? Uh? Dr Andrew's Dreamland is off
the chain to Dreamlands. Fantastic? Yeah, Dreamland. I mean there's
so we could do this forever. Yeah, good stuff. That
(20:01):
pulled me out of the stupor seed a fat boy
and me. Is it coming out? That makes me happy?
You know? Yeah? There you got famous and that's there's
a few others. The name is Dave's ribs are the
lick for certain for certain around Yeah. Yeah. With their
(20:24):
French Their French fries are good too, real good. Yeah. Yeah,
I mean I have to go find it's not a
sponsor of this show, so I'm not willing to give
them that much credit. I'll tell you that right now.
Well maybe they will now, yeah, maybe some ribs, I
mean had some ribs, and for sure it would be
(20:45):
land next to me, Irvine, Famous Daves, Victorville. That's too far.
It's big time to go only though, that's all. I
don't need it. I don't need to go South California.
We still have problems out here. You know, got to
be careful. Yeah, yeah, the big paint can of a
(21:06):
hand sanitizer. Every time you bump into it. You just
gotta make sure. You gotta be gotta be you know,
clear here. You gotta be safe everybody. But on the
subject of the Dallas Cowboys in the Philadelphia Eagles, can
I ask you guys this, is there any possible way
Dallas gets out of this weekend and just feels great
(21:28):
about things? Because I'm seriously, because it's kind of a
lose lose if if Jalen Hurts plays, or if if
if Gardner Minshew plays and they win the game. I
mean it's Gardner Minshew. He's a backup, but you know
he's kind of dealing with his own loss and Mike
Leach and he was just he was excused to go
speak at Mike leach his funeral. You know, he's kind
(21:49):
of and and you know, again he's a backup. And
then if you lose, you lost to a backup. Dallas
is screwed either way. This is a loser situation where
the Dallas ow boys, So I kind of feel like
maybe the story isn't as important on the Philly side
of it feels like they're gonna get, you know, home
field advantage. All they've got to do is win one
more game this season. Dallas is kind of in this
(22:10):
awkward spot, especially after all that trash that uh we
are Michael Parson agree and disagree at the same time.
But I'm gonna let you go first and have it.
You you can have it. But I'm an I'm gonna agree,
but I'm gonna disagree to Oh. I mean, I just
would just I would just generally say this. I'm kind
of with Jonas on this, Like, I don't know that
(22:32):
there's any upside to this weekend because the expectation is
by oddsmakers there was a four or five point favor
or something like that they should win the game, they're
going up against the backup. There's all those like storylines
to it, and if they don't, then it's just like, well,
here you go again, same old Cowboys. I mean, I
just I don't know. I think there's there to your point, Jonis,
(22:54):
there's there. There really is no upside to this for
for the Boys. Uh in this case, Yeah, I think
it's it's it's all like basically, Nick Sirianni and the
Eagles can go out there, play loose, play free, and
even though there's obviously big divisional stakes on the line,
they can still sit there and say we'll find the
backup quarterback. It is what it is, or maybe they're not.
By the way, if Jalen Hurts, can heal in time
to be able to you know, actually, I mean his
(23:15):
body is different than everybody else's. Um, you know, Jalen
Hurts being out for me, I still look at it
from from this perspective. Um, he doesn't play defense for
for the Philadelphia Eagles, and so the wind hare for
(23:36):
Dallas perceivably is have a good day on offense, like
you expect to see the Cowboys defense be able to
have a level of of success that they may not
have had if Jalen Hurts is out there and that's
that extra dimension and that ability to leave the pocket
and run and hurt you with his legs. But Jalen
(23:59):
hurt doesn't play defense for the Philadelphia Eagles. And and
so what I would say is the win that could
take place for Dallas and and the way they could
leave the game feeling positive is if their offense has
a a solid day at the office. I won't even
say phenomenal, I won't say spectacular. I'll just say if
(24:22):
they have a solid showing where they come out and
they handle their business and you can see it like
how we talk about the way Philadelphia's offense has looked,
and it's looked very balanced. They've they've been able to
run the ball, they've been able to throw the ball.
If this is a team, the Dallas team is a
team where they should have that type of balance as well,
(24:45):
because they have a quarterback that can throw the ball,
they have receivers that can catch the ball, and they
have running backs that can run the ball. I would
like to see their offense have a solid day for
it to be a win. Like just think about what
you're saying. You've got like, I'm serious, like Mike McCarthy,
offensive minded head coach, Dak Prescott, franchise quarterback money Zeke
(25:10):
Elliott has already been paid, like all of this stuff
on offense, and still as we approach Christmas, we still
have questions about whether or not the offense can perform
and get it done. And you're just looking for moral
victories more so from the offense, or or looking for
the offense to shine this late in the season just
(25:33):
to feel better about them going into the into the playoffs.
That's crazy. It's kind of damning for that entire side
of the football that that's where we're at. I mean,
when you got I mean honestly, like I get that
there's no real upside when you're playing against a backup
quarterback like that. I get that, But wouldn't you guys
agree they need to have a positive showing against this defense,
(25:58):
Like you can't use Allen Hurts as an excuse for
not having a good outing on on on the offensive
side of the ball. If your Dallas Cowboys, in fact,
you should say this puts more pressure on their defense
to to perform on on Sunday or Saturday is a
Saturday or Sunday, Saturday, Saturday, and that that that this
(26:19):
is one of those moments where let's take full advantage
and let's throttle down on these dudes. So to me,
that's that's the bigger To me, that is the bigger
storyline here is what will Dallas's offense do because if
they do, in fact, let this game get away, which
they very well could let this game get away from them,
(26:42):
if it happens, it's going to be because their offense
was not good enough in this game period. Yeah, well listen, uh,
Michael Parsons, they better, they better. Oh yeah, I'd like
to see that that go down at some point and
look at maybe Jordan Mylotta will have some Christmas carols
(27:05):
or something for us, uh, you know, getting ready for
the holidays as well too. That that that awesome phenomen
all right, it is, uh, two pros and a cup
of Joe here on fs are. By the way, So
Boe Nicks is coming back? Here? Is that the the
word out of Oregon. He's decided he's gonna come on back.
Huh like that were like two days later? This he's
coming back a big deal. Um. Kind of interesting that
(27:28):
he's decided to come back in a great year at
Oregon Um. You know, his offensive coording are left to
go take the head coaching job at Arizona State. And
I think if you look at this year's draft class
as compared to next year's, it's maybe would have been
more advantageous for him to come out now. And the
reason why I say that is, you know, if you
(27:49):
look at Bryce Young, who I'm a huge fan of,
I think he should be the first quarterback taking this
draft class. But people have concerns about his size, and
so that's gonna be a knock on him. Maybe other
people don't have him, or other teams don't have him
as their number one guy. You look at Will Levis,
He's got the arm, he's got the size, the intelligence,
to toughness, all that stuff. Film didn't look good this year,
(28:10):
was in a new offense with rich Scan Garrillo, who
was literally a one and done it in Kentucky and
now he's gone. Well, Levis is coming out in the draft.
He's coming off some bad film. But when you see
him a T shirt and shorts, you watch him throw,
people are gonna be really impressed. You know, Anthony Richson
is a absolute you know, physical freak. I mean, he's
just I don't know that you can compare him to anything.
(28:32):
He's that you know, he's that much of an athlete,
and he actually has some good, you know, fundamentals and
tools as far as how he plays from the pocket,
he's just in consistent with it, but maybe the strongest
arm in the draft. And I could see him, depending
on how people look at his skill set, as being
a guy that goes really high in this draft too.
He's jacked, you can do backflips. He just he I mean,
(28:56):
he's he's Honestly, I've never seen anyone like him. Like
people want to try to make like Will Levis and
Josh Allen, you know, comparable, it's not. Anthony Richardson is
the is the closer comp to and with Josh Allen
as far as you know when you watched Josh Allen
and Wyoming and how raw he was. But with like
(29:16):
this athleticism, then you've got Anthony Richardson who takes up
to another notch like again Alliser for an arm. He again,
he actually has some really good fundamentals. At times he
just doesn't doesn't do it consistently, but his ability to
run and play tough and all that, like that's unquestioned,
like you can see it watching him, um and then
(29:37):
c J. Stroud, who was who's maybe the most accurate
of all these quarterbacks in this draft class from Ohio State.
But that's kind of the top four, if you will.
And I think bow Nicks, you know, honestly, after that
is probably somewhere in that mix. Whereas next year, like
you know, you're, you're You've got Caleb Williams, Drake May
like it literally starts there, and then the other quarterbacks
(29:58):
fall in line after that. You know, this draft class,
I think there's different you know, thoughts on the order
of these quarterbacks and where they should be. And I
think Nix might, because of the season he had this
past year, fall into that group. And I just wonder
what another year in organ is really gonna do for
him in a draft class where I think at best
he's gonna be the third quarterback taking to that draft class.
(30:19):
In this one, maybe some people view him ahead of
you know what Richardson and Will Levis put on tape
this year, because bo Nick's tape is probably better than
those two. I just don't know if his upside is
the same as what those two guys are capable of.

or wherever you get your podcast. Uh huh yeah, Brady,
all right, oh uh huh, I just thought us up.
So that's it's so dumb what I was just thinking,
(31:50):
What are you thinking about? It's like, man, we what
to you? It wouldn't be the first time. Yeah, where's
this going? Uh? We lost Peach two as well. Another
Niitney line has gone to Niitney Lion Heaven? Do you
know that story? Brady? P twenty two? Is this mountain
(32:15):
lion that I guess would show up on these cameras
out here in l A and it's finally caught up
to her, I believe, And so they tagged Peach. I
think they put a king on him. It's dead now,
whatever it is. They showed him too. They showed his
body and they were like, yeah, they're making sure they
check on his uh, check on the cat's vitals and
(32:38):
stuff like that. Looking at that thing like it looked
like a stuffed animal day and no way that thing
coming back to life. So apparently this thing got hit
by a car or something and and it passed and
it was just kind of it became like this, you know,
quote unquote celebrity. These losers did a walk for it
(32:59):
like they together over the weekend, and like a memorial walk,
A memorial walk for this mountain lion that tried to
play Frogger on the freeway and got hit by a car.
Come on, what are you talking about? Be more elusive? Hey,
(33:20):
I almost hit a coyote this morning. Guess what. That
thing had his head on the swivel got out of
the way. I'm not doing a walk for that coyote
because it got out of the way. Two rest easy,
pea two like r I p. Twenty two. Hey wow, okay, fellas,
(33:41):
it's time to stop treating your groins like junk. Introducing
the Gillette Intimate Pubic Care Trimmer, a gentle and easy
shade from American's number one trusted men's grooming brand. Show
your pubic readson some respect with Gilette Intimate the best
of it I can get. There are some good things
that happened, and there's some bad, and then there's some
(34:03):
downright ugly things. It's time for good, bad and all
right to lead the lap. Who's got like this week?
This week we start with the good, as we always do. LaVar,
you have good this week? Yeah, I'm just gonna go
with we're super close to Christmas and a lot to
be thankful for, a lot to be grateful for. Man,
(34:25):
sounds like horrible timing to say it, but you know,
there's gonna be people that didn't make it to Christmas
this year, um won't make it to see a new year.
So the fact that we're closer to to Christmas and
and obviously there's gonna be some really good football being
play We're getting closer to two playoffs. I think that's
the good to focus in on, is like we're we're
almost here, We're almost too Christmas. It's in the air. Yeah. Yeah.
(34:50):
And then for some and for some there's there's that
obviously or actually snakes that are living in your Christmas
tree that you've brought into your house and might have
not a known that that snake was there until it
slithered out and he was, you know, grabbing it and
removing it from your crib. What do you mean what happened?
You didn't see that on the news. It was just
(35:11):
reported on on the on the news that this family
brought home a Christmas tree and there was a snake
living in the trub they discovered. I mean, I guess
I could have gave that to you for b Q News.
But yeah, it was I don't know what type of
snake it was. I'm sure um, it didn't look like
it was poisonous the way the guy was handling the
(35:31):
snake and rescued it. And hopefully it didn't suffer the
same demise as Peach twenty two. Hopefully it was released
back into the wild. Brandy, what do he calls candy asses?
Will that happen in Dublin? Yeah? I wish it wouldn't
(35:55):
happen here. I've embarrassed. Actually didn't see those people on
a wall, Like, come on, manager, Christmas vacation. If you're
gonna walk around celebrating p. Twenty two, did they bring
their chihuahuas unleashes? It's just it's disgustingly, it's disgusting. And
this is your community, Lee, this is your southern California,
not mine. Yours. Sure, I'll take that, alright, guys, you
(36:20):
can't have good without the bad Jonas? What was bad
this week? Anybody'd been to them all this week? Anybody
happen to kind of go out and try and get
some Christmas shopping done? Yeah, it's a it's a miserable, awful,
horrible experience. It's just terrible. The parking situation everywhere is bad.
(36:41):
It's just the people are rude. Everybody's walking around with
like a Venta Lata, Coco whatever Moco coffee in their hand,
with a bunch of bags on one arm. They don't
they they're not paying attention where they're going. It's just
a miserable experience. And for some people that want to
be efficient and know where they're going and get in
(37:04):
and get out, they're not allowed to do it because
those people got a stall and wait around and and
look at everything and oh look it's a it's a
fake Christmas tree. Yeah, it's the same one that was
over by the other kiosk right up the way. We
don't have to stop and look at every single one
of them. It's miserable. It's an awful experience. So that's
my bad for the week. From bed to worse. Brady,
(37:27):
what was ugly this week? Uh? Well, I don't know
if it was ugly this week. Maybe it's been ugly
for a while. It's been going on for a while.
It could be going on for sure today in these
final hours, do you guys know it's the early signing
period today, so a lot of high school uh student
athletes will be signing out of their future schools to
go play and probably it rolled early and in this January.
(37:49):
I would assume for most of these guys and uh,
well patn or Doozy, that this is a weird one
to me. He he came out and said, I don't
know what he knows about Drake. He was the quarterback
at North Carolina. But he's basically said that there's been,
you know, a couple of teams who have reached out
and tried to basically entice Drake made it come to
their school for five million bucks for a college quarterback.
(38:14):
By the way, I don't doubt that that's not true.
But why is Patton Ardozy, who's the head coach for Pitt,
in the know on this? Like why does he know this?
Shouldn't it be Mack Brown? And you would see in
North Carolina he's talking about who do you think who
do you think the two teams were? I think it's
Nor Doozy because maybe I don't know. Jordan Addison, who
(38:35):
was the political off win or two years ago, was
taken off their roster and Pitt. So maybe Nardozy is
bringing this up as a way of saying, maybe it's
a team there in southern California that's oh man, I'll
put it this way. I've heard explicitly after they played
one team this year a player was offered seven figures
on the field from that team. Oh yeah, that ugly.
(39:04):
It's like that now, uh million? Sheeez? Games Sol not
told God. Yeah, that's a lot of money to get offered.
You gotta think about that. Would you take if you
guys are playing. I couldn't leave. Pence Day is a
different era. Though I might have left today, I wouldn't
(39:26):
