Speaker 1 (01:21):
Moment you said, can we submit new songs this time?
Because I didn't even choose that song, but I know
that that whoever chose that song for me kind of
knows what I like, which is kind of interesting because
they made a choice for me that I didn't make,
but would have known that I did at one point
like that song. But there are some songs that I

(01:44):
just like and I always liked for one reason or another.

Speaker 5 (01:48):

I made a email for everybody so that we could
all be on the same chain together.

Speaker 8 (02:23):
LeVar, would your song have to be edited? No, it's
gonna it's gonna catch you off guard.

No, he was on the road to fame.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
His daddy was somewhat daddy daddy.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
Moment, Can we take a moment? I feel like we

way first.

Speaker 2 (03:45):
I'm just trying to figure out what happened this past
weekend for Lee. Yeah, what happened? Lee? Why is your
phone on green?

Speaker 5 (03:52):
Well?

Speaker 7 (03:53):
I don't understand this whole green thing, the green versus blue.

Speaker 5 (03:56):
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (03:57):
Everything's fine.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
Green means something is Wrongly, let me bring you into
like today's world. Green means something is wrong. Blue means
everything is right.

Speaker 5 (04:09):
Now, Cylinders, I'm typing in words into my eye message
to Lee, and it's fine. It's blue, all right, I
know what you guys are talking about. I'm going to
send something to the group chat. Let me see, and
I'm going to see whether or not this goes through.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
Because you don't know. Oh well, I think you do
know if it's blue because of the.

Speaker 5 (04:27):
Arrow, right, yeah, this will This will be the indicator
here so we can get to just to see.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
Whether see it's blue. Now you know what it is.
Let me tell you what it is. That green time
is when he's only communicating with the show boss. That's
what it is. Because now I'm blue, everything is good
to go.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
See.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
So when he's communicating with Jonas, he's clearly not communicating
with Brady Quinn or LeVar Arrington.

Speaker 4 (04:54):
That's what this is. Now now I get it.

Speaker 5 (04:56):
Did the message? I just said over on the group
text that go through correctly. I just want to make
sure that everybody's phone is worth I'm.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
Sorry, Jonas, can you explain it's not loading what exactly?

Speaker 7 (05:04):
I'm not getting any group text.

Speaker 2 (05:06):
I'm not getting anything either.

Speaker 1 (05:07):
See I got the tackle, Jonas. What do you get there?
Who is that getting tackled? I don't know who that
is getting tackled, but it's the Bills and it's the
Patriots plaint.

Speaker 5 (05:23):
I mean, there's there's a you're not getting it.

Speaker 8 (05:27):
Oh, something came onto the field. There was, there was
exactly where you're missing.

Speaker 5 (05:33):
Some guy threw his chair on the field.

Speaker 4 (05:35):
Somebody threw a buildou onto the field. Yeah, what was.

Speaker 7 (05:40):
That you said, LeVar U Bill?

Speaker 5 (05:42):
No, No, not that you said. I'm blue blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue,
beetle blue.

Speaker 1 (05:57):
That is really a cool song too, by the way,
I really enjoyed that song, Sam.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
That's not your song.

Speaker 5 (06:03):
Ye oh yeah, that's our song.

Speaker 1 (06:05):
That will not be my entries. That will not because
it's not cool enough. It's really it's corny cool, but
it's not cool cool. It's not like sturdy grown man
ass cool. You know, that's like glow sticks and playing
around cool.

Speaker 5 (06:22):
Yeah, great call.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
By the way, Hey, how did you have that so
so readily available?

Speaker 4 (06:31):
Jonas?

Speaker 1 (06:32):
I'm curious is that saving your videos and your photos? Like,
I mean, it wasn't such a quick it was such
a quick sind like, how do you how do you
have that so readily available.

Speaker 5 (06:46):
Save all your good gifts?

Speaker 2 (06:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (06:47):
I just I just wanted to make sure that everybody
was on the same page here, that we were all
working together.

Speaker 1 (06:52):
You know, it almost got stepped on, but for some
strange reason, it came across, it came through unscathed.

Speaker 4 (06:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (07:00):
Well, all right. They they're built different in Buffalo, you.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
Know, they're clearly you know, but was that Buffalo because
they they don't have on dark jerseys they have on
white jerseys.

Speaker 5 (07:13):
Yeah, it was in Buffalo. Huh Yeah, I mean listen.

Speaker 4 (07:16):
They when do you wear white jerseys at home?

Speaker 2 (07:19):
In football?

Speaker 5 (07:21):
They're playing the Patriots here, right, That's what The Cowboys
were white jerseys at home, don't they. I'm pretty sure
the Cowboys do. They switched it and then they wear
purple against non conference So yeah.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
I know, when it's hotter outside, teams will will wear
the white jerseys because it's reflective. Of the sun rays,
and well, that might keep you cooler. But generally speaking,
don't you wear dark at home? You wear your darker color.

Speaker 5 (07:48):
What about you?

Speaker 1 (07:50):
Well, Lee wears his darker color every day, always color
that's always darker.

Speaker 4 (07:55):
We always plays at home.

Speaker 5 (07:57):
Well, you know, he's not going to be playing at home,
and they're not gonna be playing anywhere for the next
couple of weeks. Jonathan Taylor, All right, what a bummer man. So,
Jonathan Taylor, we finally start to see him rolling. You've
got the Indianapolis Colts in a playoff spot right now,
and then the news comes out yesterday he's gonna miss
the next couple of weeks because he's got he's gonna
have surgery out his thumb, banged up his thumb, and

(08:20):
so he's not going to be available for the Indianapolis Colts.
And this was a team with Gardner Minshew quietly playing
pretty good football that finds themselves in the seventh spot
in the AFC playoffs. And if you look right now
on DraftKings, the betting odds would suggest it's pretty even
as far as whether or not they're going to make
that playoff spot. And I wanted to see Gardner Minshew

(08:42):
and Jonathan Taylor get this thing rolling and instead more
injury issues with Jonathan Taylor here this late in the season.

Speaker 2 (08:49):
Sucks.

Speaker 5 (08:51):
Sucks for the Indianapolis Colts. Yes or no thoughts.

Speaker 1 (08:56):
I mean, I'll say whenever you lose, especially with what
Jonathan Taylor went through this past offseason and just how
much it took for him to kind of get his
mind right to go back onto the field and give

(09:16):
it what he needed to give. I certainly, I certainly
would say that that's a disheartening and a heartbreaker if
you're a Jonathan Taylor fan, and if you're a football fan,
because Jonathan Taylor, win healthy and win on his game,
is one of the best players in the National Football League.

(09:38):
So you already have lost your starting quarterback. Gardner Minshew
is one of those guys that you can get behind
and feel happy about because he's a personality and he's
a brand outside of just being a quarterback in the league.
He's just got that personality and that look and he

(09:59):
actually he's pretty good. He's a pretty good football player.
And this Coats team, for what it's worth, I think
jim Irsay is like the American American dream persona fied
in a lot of ways, the way he handles things,
the way he leans on that tree and sings his
song with the ersa band and the Tree Leaners.

Speaker 4 (10:21):
I really think.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
There's a lot to the story of this Colts team
and them being overachievers, and so when you hear something
like this takes place, I think it's a little bit
of a downer. I think it's a little bit of
a downer, and I'm wishing the best for Jonathan Taylor
and hoping he has a speedy recovery.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
All right, Will this team be a playoff team? Because
if the playoffs started today, they'd be in. However, in
the period of time he'll be away, they go back
to back weeks on the road, they come home for Pittsburgh.
I don't know that they can have much of a
margin of air here, especially with like Denver, the way
they're playing right now. Who's behind them, you know, Houston, Jacksonville.

(11:06):
Houston's you know, butting into being at least a wild
card team with Jacksonville now ahead of in the AFC South.
But you start kind of looking through the rest of
like the AFC AFC North. Obviously Baltimore Pittsburgh. Youll get
those two teams. Maybe Buffalo can climb back into it.
Miami obviously has control of that division, which just kind

(11:27):
of interesting. I don't know. I mean, we'll see who
the seventh team is, but kind of a tough, tough
portion of the season to go through when arguably he'd need,
you know, your best player Jonathan Taylor healthy. But now
the pressure's on Minshew. We'll see what he's capable of
doing and if you can help carry this team for
the next few weeks to be able to keep them
in the playoff hunt. Pretty remarkable to what Shane Stykeen

(11:50):
has done. I kind of said this, I think when
the news of Frank Wright came out, I wonder if
that plays a role that Shane Steikeen, in his first year,
still with a backup quarterback, has been able to keep
this team afloat and in the playoff hunt where Carolina
hasn't even been competitive. And Shane stike And obviously has

(12:11):
got a lot of credit for his offensive prowess and
the creativity different things he's done. But I mean, maybe
you can make the case the two rosters are in
different positions, But I still think you know, you look
at you look at what Indiapolis has done, It's it's
pretty remarkable.

Speaker 5 (12:27):
I mean, if Indianapolis gets into the playoffs and Buffalo doesn't,
but that's that's pretty damning considering the gap and talent
and if you look at you know, Buffalo down the stretch,
much more difficult task to try and you know, get
to that ten win threshold that we talked about to
try and get it and get into that last wildcard spot.

(12:47):
I would say Buffalo is a more dangerous seven seed
than Indianapolis, but the odds are pretty stacked against him.

Speaker 2 (12:54):
Yawn.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
I love my team or a dream. We are better
than the boats because we are the colts. We lean
on things and we lean on them real well. We're
going to go to the playoffs and that will be swell.

(13:18):
That was just that was just a piece out of
one of one of Jim Mersey's songs with the Tree Leaners.
You know, that was just that was one of the
fight songs.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
Very well done, Yeah, very well done. Great.

Speaker 1 (13:33):
We don't lean on something today, that's the funk version.
We're gonna lean on something today's guys.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
You know me, guys, guys, guys.

Speaker 5 (13:48):
Guys, what do you make of his comments where he
said he was targeted for being a rich white billionaire
when he got fourteen?

Speaker 1 (13:57):
Every person, every rich white billionaire, is a target. I mean,
I'd like to say that that's very true.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
I was trying to sift through his explanation of the
of the event and trying to figure out, like, all right,
like does this make sense? Can you go back through
it again?

Speaker 5 (14:18):
Johnas, Yeah, he got pulled over. They found a trash
bag full of pills and cash and everything else in
the back, and he said that quote, let me just
pull up the exact quote here, blah blah blah blah blah.
I'm prejudiced against because I'm a rich white billionaire. If

(14:40):
I'm just the average guy down the block, they're not
pulling me in, of course not. I don't care what
it sounds like. It's the truth. I could give a
damn what people think how anything sounds or sounds like.
The truth is the truth, and I know the truth.
So that was Can I.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
Just say, jim Irsay is a stone cold g man.
I mean, you can have whatever opinions about him that
you want. That dude keeps it real. He's He's a
keep it real type of dude.

Speaker 2 (15:09):
I bet.

Speaker 4 (15:09):
Like I've made fun of.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
Situations where we've talked about Jim Mersey, but I actually
think that I would be tight with a Jim Mersy
Like I think we would be super cool, like we
beat people's like we could roll, we could roll together,
like like I'm rolling with you, LeVar, Like, come on,
let's go roll with Jim Mercy.

Speaker 5 (15:27):
Failed several roadside field sobriety test.

Speaker 4 (15:30):
I mean, how many would you have failed? Jonas?

Speaker 5 (15:32):
Well, I would fail one sober. I've tried it. It's difficult, man.
The whole walk in a straight line.

Speaker 2 (15:40):
There was one point. There was a one point to
Jonas's point my left foot like the Liz Frank and
then finally got surgeon all that it was so bad.
I was like, man, they maybe do something on one
foot if it's left I do bro, I've got a
medical condition. This is not going to look normal. Stop.

Speaker 1 (15:57):
I'm just that one time that the Liz Frank did
that to you. How many other times would the List
Frank have not been a reason why. I can't even
tell you the amount of times that he would have
been bad for me. I'm just being honest. Now that's
a younger LeVar like I don't you know when I
LeVar allen it I'm into ubers, you know what I mean?

Speaker 4 (16:18):
Or I got like a little black truck.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
Yeah, that's what we're talking about, dead sober like. I see,
I could see Jonas's lack of I mean, he probably
doesn't do any balance work. Oh he's doing is trying
to crush weights all the time.

Speaker 1 (16:30):
And you know what, if you don't your balance work,
there's something to be said about not doing balance work.
I'm telling you, because if you don't work on that, like,
you're off balance, even even like them in the most
normal I'm a rain maker, even in the most normalists

(16:53):
of normal situations. If you don't practice balance people, some
people don't realize, like, there are two there are two
places on your body that could have the greatest success
in sports. And it's your hands and it's your feet
where y'all thought I was going to to the.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
Bill's football field.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
Yes, okay, there are three places on your body that
could actually play a major part in your success as
an athlete. For some there you go, yeah, you got well,
you got to strengthen your hands. You gotta strengthen your feet.
There are things that you do that you do to

(17:34):
strengthen your feet, and there are things that you do
to strengthen your hands. But if you didn't know to
do that, you don't do those exercises. Those are very
very fine, detailed, minute like type what's it called, like
details of a of an exercise to strengthen your feet,
to strengthen your toes, fingers in your hands.

Speaker 5 (17:56):
How many cops out there do you think make people
go through multiple Bullfield sobriety tests just because it's so
funny to watch him fail the first time. They're like,
let's see what we can get him to do this time.

Speaker 2 (18:05):
Do it again?

Speaker 5 (18:06):
Yeah, come on, hey, this time walking a straight line
account backwards one hundred all the way down to one.
And then you know, see if you can do uh,
you know, some sort of calisthenics on the second road.

Speaker 1 (18:17):
Y'all remember the one video where the officer had the
dude like doing vogue walking like step step pop pop
step pop pop pop pop step.

Speaker 2 (18:30):
And he was killing it.

Speaker 1 (18:32):
And then he did something he got so comfortable doing,
doing the whole pop pop step like you know, rock
star steps that he said something I think he just
admitted that he was drunk, and then she she arrested him.

Speaker 5 (18:44):
LaVar, you really stepped in it because you got just
disgusted looks from Iowa, Sam and Lee to that for
what you just said. Why is that, Lee, because that's
Reno nine one one is.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
That that wasn't real. That wasn't in real life.

Speaker 4 (18:57):
No, sir, it should have drinking tonight.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
It should have been. It should have been in real life.
I saw it. It should have been in life. These
writers take that stuff from things that really.

Speaker 5 (19:11):
Happen, right. Lee and Sam both at the same time
in Unison, were like, oh jeez, they were just so
disappointed in you.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
I mean, you shouldn't be disappointed in me. I mean,
I'm just saying, like step step.

Speaker 2 (19:24):
Pop, Hey.

Speaker 5 (19:25):
Moral of the story is John.

Speaker 1 (19:27):
Clerk, after you you've you've passed a sobriety test.

Speaker 5 (19:30):
That and Jonathan Taylor get back healthy because we'd like
to see Gardner Minshew in the Indianapolis Colts in the playoffs.
So that's the moral of the story. Here from the

of the great reunions in recent sports history, and it's happening.

Speaker 5 (21:12):
Two Pros and a cup of Joe Fox Sports Radio,
LeVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox with you here. Coming
up less than twenty minutes from now, We're going to
hand out some awards. It's our Midweek Awards. It's the good,
the bad, and the ugly. That'll be yours here again
less than twenty minutes from now from the ti iraq
dot com studios. I mean you want to talk about
a heartwarming tale in the world of college football. I
mean you want to talk about how sometimes you can

(21:35):
go back one of the great reunions in the history
of recent sports memory in my mind, Bobby Petrino has
agreed to become the next offensive coordinator at Arkansas. He
is going back to Fayetteville, where he was once a
head coach and also was asked to leave because he

(21:57):
had an affair and then crash his motorcycle while out
with his side piece, if you will, and then showed
up at a press conference and a neck brace with
what appeared to be third degree burns all over his
head and torso. And then it turns out well, some

(22:19):
of the reports say that maybe the significant other of
the person he was having the affair with may have
shown up on the scene and might have beat his
ass in Fayetteville. And so all these years later, over
a decade later, Bobby Petrino is back, and if he's
got a comedic bone in his body, he will write
a moped into the press conference.

Speaker 2 (22:42):
Yes, I mean I don't foresee that happening. But that
being said, I mean, this is an alzheimer. This is
what makes college football great is we can have reunions
like this. You know, sometimes LeVar, they say you can't
go back. This is this is proof. This is an
example is never say never, folks, because sometimes you can.

(23:06):
All right. So here's what I want you to do,
if you're listening out there, don't give up hope, all right,
don't lose faith all right. Yeah, so maybe some things
were messed up, maybe some things didn't work out, all right,
Maybe you crashed your motorcycle, all right, maybe you got
your ass kicked, whatever it is, don't give up, okay,
stay positive, and you remember, you can always go back,

(23:29):
all right. You can find a way, all right, And
it might be a long, hard road to get there,
but one day you and maybe a neck brace, you
could both find your way back.

Speaker 4 (23:40):
And knows by the way, super super cheery grad cheery gate.

Speaker 9 (23:47):
You know.

Speaker 5 (23:48):
I will say this, It is actually kind of encouraging
that people are willing to look past a mistake and
be like, hey, listen, we'll buy gods, we buy gouds.

Speaker 4 (23:58):
Is forgiven.

Speaker 5 (23:59):
You're a pretty good offense of mine.

Speaker 2 (24:00):
Why we got ou in Texas coming in the conference.
We're gonna need to get a lot better down here
in Fanville. We need we need some offensive firepower, all right,
Like I.

Speaker 5 (24:10):
Mean, he always was respected to be a good offensive mind.
So you know, I just now we have seen this
in the NFL where Vance Joseph was the Broncos head coach.
Now he's a defensive coordinator. That was a little surprising
that he was sure. But yeah, stuff, I just like,

(24:31):
who do you think it was more difficult to come
to terms with the idea on this? Was it Bobby
Petrino and his family or was it Arkansas I who
said it didn't end well? But you know, we'll welcome
him back. Kind of a kind of an uncomfortable conversation
to have, is it.

Speaker 2 (24:48):
Yeah, well, especially, I mean I don't remember the exact
details of there was a buyout or how that works
back then. I'm sure he was they used cause to
get I don't know. I mean, it's the whole fig
is amazing. It's it's one of the reasons why as
much as I hate in some ways the directions that
college football is going, there's also this element of, Look,

(25:11):
it was once kind of regionalized. Now it's being nationalized,
where you're gonna start seeing these stories on a national stage.
And once people start really dipping into the storylines of
college football, like, it doesn't get any better than that.
I brought up the other day about Virginia Tech celebrating
their robbery win versus UVA and they go out to

(25:32):
commemorate it, and the field's crew there and Charlottesvielle turns
on the sprinklers to run r the photo. When would
that ever happen in the NFL. It would literally never
happen in the NFL, or there would be like some
sort of lawsuit or something that would take place, like
only in college football, does stuff like this exist, and
so as it becomes more nationalized, hopefully these stories become

(25:54):
a little bit more national in nature, and you get
people who are walking on New York saying, Hey, how's
the bomb mock? I what to do you hear about
that coach? She's going back to Fayetteville. He's got the
neck brace and everything. What do you think about that?
You know, like, I hope those conversations start happening more
and more.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
If he wins, it's going to be a pretty cool story.
If he loses, he will be he will be punchlined,
joked to death in Arkansas. Out of Arkansas. I think
he's he's only the OC. I mean, it's still on
Sam Pittman. I don't know, man, it's been a rough
year for O Seeds. I mean, I'm a Pennsylvania guy,
so you know I'm speaking by partial of course, but it's.

Speaker 2 (26:30):
Been a rough year for ocs man. I'll say this
much because obviously he was the OC in at Texas
and m you know, they had a number of issues
at quarterback and despite I think they've played was the
three quarterbacks this year so far, obviously kind of Wegman
got hurt. He was a starter, a lot of people
were really high on him. Max Johnson at one point

(26:53):
was in as well, and then they moved on to
this Jalen Jalen Henderson as well. So there's just there's
been a lot of moving parts. Despite that they're like
a top five scoring offense of the SEC, which is
kind of surprising all things considered.

Speaker 5 (27:06):
So, I mean, there's also the he's got one thing
left to do if he wants to make everything right,
all right, He's got to go back to the Falcons
at some point in time, because he did leave Atlanta
with a post it note in the locker room to
go ahead and take another job that so many people
were pleased in Atlanta to see the way his Arkansas

(27:27):
tenure ended, because apparently he just wrote on one of
those yellow post it notes, guys appreciate it, I'm out,
and then just left the Falcons to go take this
other gig.

Speaker 2 (27:35):
Now do you have any actual evidence that that was
how he left?

Speaker 5 (27:38):
No, but I just imagined that that that it was
a post it note.

Speaker 2 (27:42):
That's where Jonahs could be a bit reckless as he
says these things on radio with a lot of I
don't know just validity, like he's saying it like, yeah, no,
is this happened? Like, folks, listen, this actually happened. That
actually happened. No, it didn't.

Speaker 1 (27:55):
But I'd like to believe the sobriety field test, like
why would you tell that story? It's from Reno nine
to eleven Jonas, It's ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (28:03):
Yeah. Yeah, I feel like every time I listen to
the show, I'm like, yeah, people really can't listen to
anything we're saying. Take it seriously, can't?

Speaker 5 (28:09):
Why not?

Speaker 4 (28:10):
That is not true? That only in some instances. That's
pretty true.

Speaker 1 (28:15):
But I think we're joking around when we're not like
being fully honest and truthful. I think it's more bits
than it is anything else. Yeah, I think when it's
time to be serious, we're serious.

Speaker 10 (28:27):
But like if you were going to leave a no,
when Lee brings up death from talking about all the
time that that was interesting because I had that conversation offline,
by the way yesterday like would.

Speaker 4 (28:39):
You really save us?

Speaker 1 (28:40):
I was like hell, yes, yes, I was a hero
yesterday because of Lee's question, Well.

Speaker 5 (28:46):
Yeah, why wouldn't you?

Speaker 2 (28:47):
Why would you say hold on? You have more than
two people?

Speaker 1 (28:52):
I do now that became another conversation. Exactly that was?
That was that was an extended piece of the conversation. Well, Dad,
who would you save out of us? If you could
only say two? And that was a hard one to answer,
but I did.

Speaker 2 (29:09):
I did.

Speaker 5 (29:10):
What was the question specifically? Was it two thousand people?

Speaker 7 (29:13):
No, one hundred, two hundred, two.

Speaker 4 (29:15):
Hundred or two three? Three family members?

Speaker 2 (29:18):
Right? Three? Or two two two? Two?

Speaker 4 (29:21):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (29:21):
It might have been two. I'm taking my two family members. Man,
I'm sorry those two hundred, you.

Speaker 2 (29:28):
Know, I mean, I didn't answer it because I don't
really want to play out this hypothetical mind. I will
say this though, I will say this, probably before the
invention of social media, I would have said two hundred thousand,
like not even not even hesitate. Now I'm like, I
don't know, I don't know if that's yours true colors
out there. Maybe I am just going with the family member.

Speaker 1 (29:50):
It is all about the quality, not the quantity. And
I'm sorry you hating on you and you saved their lives. Like,
be careful how what you say? You think it's all
you know? That would be crazy, right, somebody who told
you to go jump off a bridge kill yourself? This, that,
and the other other vulgar things that they could say

(30:10):
to you, and you actually saw them in person and
they started choking on like a French fry or something
like that, and you're like right there, and you could.

Speaker 2 (30:18):
Say with a second, are you Twitter or X handles
so and so?

Speaker 4 (30:22):
And you're choking on this French fry right now? Do
you really want me to perform the heimlick on you?
Do you really want me to save you right now?
You would?

Speaker 1 (30:32):
You can't tell me you want me to cause you're choking,
But I'm telling you I could tell by the look
in your eyes that you want us to help you,
you know, like come on, that's kind of a real deal.
Like it's kind of funny, but it's interesting, like all
these morons and a holes that are on social media
totally like like bullying people actually may need help at

(30:54):
some point.

Speaker 5 (30:56):
Why do you respond though? Because I noticed that you do?

Speaker 1 (30:58):
Or I love to respond And actually I'm.

Speaker 2 (31:02):
A natural troll.

Speaker 4 (31:03):
I'm not I'm not an instigator, but I'm a natural.

Speaker 5 (31:07):
Why not? Like too many people are getting too worked
up and get sensitive about negative comments on social medi
Yeah me.

Speaker 2 (31:13):
Me, I like I enjoyed I enjoy it, right, I
lean in?

Speaker 4 (31:18):
Why not? Got to lean in.

Speaker 5 (31:21):
The wrong with it.

Speaker 1 (31:23):
I after the Michigan Ohio State game, I did my
little short video.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
What'd you say?

Speaker 4 (31:28):
You know I had been drinking. I was just kind
of like, I hope y'all bring that same energy.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
Oh yeah, I just gave the disclaimer like I'd been drinking.

Speaker 4 (31:37):
Yeah, I'd been drinking.

Speaker 2 (31:38):
I enjoy it.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
Wait, well, I just basically was like, you know, you
got all these people going crazy about James Franklin and
and how he lost to Michigan without without harballs that
I wonder if you guys will bring that same type
of energy for for day.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
They have I know they had they said your call
of farm.

Speaker 4 (32:01):
Yeah, no they did. But but here's the interesting thing
about it.

Speaker 1 (32:04):
I was in the gym yesterday, right, and I was
with an Ohio guy who who had on a Colorado's
Rockies hat on but.

Speaker 4 (32:13):
Nord there.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
But we were hanging out in the gym and we started,
you know, talking while we were lifting, which, by the way,
I despise I hate when people talk to me while
I'm lifting ahead that's hair Nord. But he started talking
to me about it, and he was like yeah, we
got to start thinking about getting rid of Ryan Day.
He's like, six losses and this, that and the other.

(32:34):
I said, the dude has one loss. Your coach has
one loss on the season. Your team, if the Ohio
State is your team has one loss on the season,
and you're talking about you have to get rid of
the coach.

Speaker 4 (32:47):
I said, in what world does that logic make sense?

Speaker 1 (32:50):
He's like, well, you hire a guy, and you want
that guy to win certain games and this and that.
I said, don't you want him to win all the games?
Don't you want that guy to win every game? You know,
there's big games and there's rivalry games. For a reason,
I was like, if he started losing all these other
games but he won those those those games that the
Michigan game, You're okay with him just winning the Michigan

(33:13):
game and not winning any other game.

Speaker 4 (33:15):
He's like, it's more acceptable.

Speaker 1 (33:20):
I said, you're a god dang lie, because if he's
losing all of those games up to the Michigan game,
you're sitting there and you're saying, if he had won
the other games, it would have made it would have
meant more to win the Michigan game because we'd be
going into the college playoff or da da da. This
is that you guys create no win situations. If that

(33:41):
man lost one game, he lost one game, and okay,
it's the biggest game of the season. He lost one game.
But you're saying that that your expectation and your standard
for the person that coaches your team is that they
can't lose a game. They pretty much can't lose a game.
That's pretty crazy to me.

Speaker 2 (34:01):
Man. So the interesting thing too, was coming into that game,
Ryan Day actually had a better winning percentage than coach Meyer,
who we work with now. It was razor close. Like
I think he was fifty six and six going into
it something like that, and so his win percentage was

(34:22):
like point nine oh three and I think coach Myers
in his time in Ohio State was eighty three and nine,
which is flipping a third, and his winning percentage is
like point nine oh two. So with that loss, though,
it now puts Ryan Day behind Urban Meyer. But more importantly,
coach Meyer went seven to zero versus Michigan in that tenure.

(34:45):
And look, I've said it before. I know it sounds
crazy and all that. Growing up Ohio I do get
the frustration of the fan base. Like I grew up
in the John Cooper era. I was a recruit for
Jim Trestle. I remember Jim Trestle's first words at the
shot Steins Arena of Basketball game, like he made the
declaration that that Buckeye Nation would be proud come to
the Michigan game the next year. Didn't say Michigan, but

(35:07):
said that against that team up north. And I remember
sitting there thinking, as a Columbus Ohio kid, that was badass.
Like I loved coach Tressel, like I if I would
have went to play for Ohio State, that would have
been the singular reason that I love their staff. I
loved coach fit who, I loved all those guys, and
it just it just wasn't the right fit for me.

(35:28):
But I one hundred percent understood the rivalry, the stakes,
everything else, because that's what I grew up in. Like
when you go two and ten and one, that's how
it goes.

Speaker 4 (35:38):
That's fair, Yeah, but I don't. I don't find it
to be reasonable.

Speaker 2 (35:42):
But it's fair. It's not. I mean as far as
moving on from him at this point, it doesn't feel reasonable.
And the other thing is and I think Jonas you
said this last week, like if they had played the
COVID year, Ohio State would have wiped the floor with
Michigan that year. Yeah, they were like what two and
four or whatever they were, And unfortunately because of that
year that you couple with the last three, now it

(36:03):
feels like it's been so long. I mean it'll be
almost it'll be like eighteen hundred and nineteen our days
since the last time of how State be Michigan until
they play again, right, And that's what that's what hurts
is like it really would have been like, all right,
maybe it would have been three in a row, but
it wouldn't have felt quite as bad. His record would
look better against Michigan.

Speaker 5 (38:01):
All right, lead to lap Who's got what?

Speaker 4 (38:03):
Brady?

Speaker 7 (38:04):
You got the good this week?

Speaker 2 (38:05):
Oh? The good is the offense in Pittsburgh go for
four undred yards first time in almost sixty games. We've
seen that sort of offensive production. One of Kenny Pickett's
best games as a quarterback there, and I think it's
gonna translate to more points, not so much this time,
but it did get them to win. So the good
is the Pittsburgh Steelers offense this past week.

Speaker 7 (38:24):
Jonas, you've got the bad.

Speaker 5 (38:26):
It's gonna be Levar's disrespect towards the clock here on
the show. It just it's insulting to everybody involved. And
I'd like to apologize to the listeners. Brady and I
are doing our best, but it's really really hard. So
to Iowa, Sam and lead to lap it's bad and
I'm sorry you guys have to go through that.

Speaker 7 (38:43):
That's not very nice.

Speaker 2 (38:45):
LeVar.

Speaker 7 (38:45):
What was ugly this week?

Speaker 1 (38:47):
You know I had something good for the ugly, but
since Jonas will want to go there, I'll just say
the onus of the ugly is the dishonesty and the
bad of this week by Jonas.

Speaker 4 (38:59):
Now uh, and I'll just keep it at that. She's
she's the dishonesty Like wait, wait, did be constant the clock?

Speaker 2 (39:07):
Though? Get yat horrible? You got it horrible? You didn't? Horrible?
Ugly
