Speaker 1 (01:25):
See, I'm a radio fiend. I need it. I need it,
so I figure I pull in like a song that
like kind of gave our listeners a feeling of how
I feel about doing this show. Fiend. I be fienan

fast re shipping, free road has a protection and over
ten thousand recommended installers tirac dot com. The way tire
buying should be. I did want to ask you guys
this because I need to find out whether and you
guys travel a hell of a lot more than me,
so I need to find out whether this is a
me thing or if no, we were a little bit screwed.

(02:27):
Is it normal now for hotels.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
To just not give you room service or or like
clean your room?

Speaker 5 (02:34):
Yeah, like clean the room.

Speaker 1 (02:35):
Have to request. After COVID, you have to request.

Speaker 5 (02:38):
That's that's like a new thing.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
After COVID was unaware of that. Room service is a
weird thing. Depends on where you're at, like Vegas, you're
good certain places you're good with room service. Most other
places they don't even do room service anymore. And then
in terms of like getting your room clean and stuff
like that, you've got to call and request or stop
out a front desk on your way out and say

(03:00):
can you clean my room? That's such such room boom,
and they'll go clean your room.

Speaker 5 (03:04):
Because of COVID, that's when it started.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
Yeah, it changed a lot of the trends.

Speaker 6 (03:09):
I think there's you know, look, every every business is
looking for ways of cutting costs, and you know, oftentimes
everyone's like, a while, we have to have the four
pm chickens because it takes a while to clean all
those rooms, and if there's a shortage of staff to
go clean those rooms, you know, being able to utilize
the staff better is make people who are staying in
your hotel request for the room to be clean if

(03:32):
they're staying there, and that way, if they're not cleaning,
you know, current people who are guests, they're cleaning rooms
that need to be turned over. So that's typically how
it's ended up working.

Speaker 5 (03:41):
Wow, truer appreciation for graduate hotels after this last day
all I'll put it that way, big fan of graduate hotels.
If they could get one in Chicago downtown area.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
When have you stayed at a graduate hotel Colombia?

Speaker 5 (03:57):
Yeah, Columbus.

Speaker 3 (03:58):
Ye, that's right, Columbus.

Speaker 5 (04:00):
You Sydney couple, no graduates watch Lee put on a
show there at that.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
I mean, I stay there all the time. You know.
In fact, my face is on one of the keys.

Speaker 5 (04:12):
Yeah I heard that. Yeah, yeah, did you go.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
Into the room? I use my face to get into
that room. How about that?

Speaker 5 (04:21):
It's pretty cool.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
I be flexing on them too, like when I'm in
State college, Like when I kiss the ground when I
get off of the airplane, and then I still.

Speaker 3 (04:30):
Evidence of this, by the way, you keep talking about it.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
It's the truth.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
I don't I don't doubt. I just want to see it.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
It's the only place where I get up off of
the plane, I come down the uh and which, by
the way, I don't think they will ever make the
airport big enough where you don't get off on the jetway.
So for the amount of time that I have benepit
State Nidney Lyne alumni. When I get off the plane
and stay college, I kiss the ground. First thing I

(04:57):
do is kiss the ground like I and I don't
put like. It's more I put it like I kissed
my hand and then I put it on the ground
like I don't put my lips on the ground.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
Oh see, entirely different there.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
You like, I get on my knees and yeah, I
thought you yeah, I thought, yeah, it's like, yeah, I
get down there. I get down there. Though, I definitely
get down there because I levitate soon as I as
soon as I make contact with the ground in the
ground and I oft State College became.

Speaker 5 (05:26):
Okay, and kind of kind of lost a lot of
respect for you there.

Speaker 3 (05:28):
To be honest. Now, I don't care to see it.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
It's not the same, okay.

Speaker 7 (05:32):
So I really thought you were like getting down and
kissing like legitimately.

Speaker 1 (05:37):
No, No, I don't get all the weight down kiss
my hand. I go down to the ground. I touched
the ground and I rubbed the ground. I rub it
and then I love it. Yeah, I rubbed the ground
and a circular motion. Circular motions clockwise are kind of
clockwise clockwise clockwise, always clockwise.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
Yeah, yeah, not working against the clock, I said.

Speaker 1 (05:59):
No, I don't work against it. I wish I could
turn back the hands of time, you know, I would
go back to college one hundred times over. If they
said you had to choose between anything else, for me,
as long as I could end up in the space
that I'm in right now with my family and my

(06:20):
wife and all that stuff, I would turn back the
hands and go back. I wouldn't want pro I want
college every single time, junior year in particular.

Speaker 5 (06:31):
Yeah, but if not for the pros, you wouldn't have
had your wife.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
Well that's not true. It would have had to have
been college that led to that, that ultimately led to that, So.

Speaker 5 (06:42):
You would have you would have taken full advantage of
the COVID year and the ability to get that extra
season and all that.

Speaker 1 (06:50):
These were left a year early. Man. I wish me
and Joe were on better terms. Man, Like when I
was there, if we were on better terms, I'm might
have came back. I just we just were. We butted
heads so badly that it was like by the time
I got to my junior year, like everybody talked about

(07:12):
like the the the talk with Joe, like it's time
for you to go, Like how you feel that you
go into the office, y'all have a conversation that you
think between me and Joe, if we were on the
same page. If we were like like good to go
with one another, I don't know, really we got really tight.

(07:36):
We got really tight later on, like like tears, like
hugged each other, were like in tears in his office
as as we talked about you know, life and and
understanding what life is about and how you go about
handling your business and stuff like that, and you know,
it was it was. It was a really cool deal.

(07:57):
But when I was in school, I always it felt like,
you know, he had it in for me, you know
what I mean. And it's like I didn't understand why,
because I tried to be the best player he ever coached.
Like I always wanted Joe to be like that is
the guy, Like that's my guy. I always wanted that,
you know, that buy in from him, or that that

(08:20):
endorsement from him, and he never gave it to me.
But I digress. I mean I felt like sharing that.
But but man, I looking back on my colleges, man,
oh man, being in school, was that that was amazing amazing.

(08:40):
I don't miss the snow. But other than that, boy,
was that an amazing time in life. Man, Golly, listen,
I'm reliving like ten different stories right now, all at
the same time. Then you can share in the air,
and then you're old and then you're old. Right. So
one time we had just beat Ohio State and and

(09:06):
we went to a party. Me and my boys went
to this little night spot. It was real popular back then,
and it was like a scene out of a movie.
You go down these steps, you go all the way down.
It's like two flights of steps you go down, and
then it opens up into like this like little nightclub
type spot, and then then right in the center of

(09:26):
the floor, you gotta go down a couple other little
steps to get onto the dance floor. And one of
my buddies was the DJ, like literally was DJ, and
I come walking in and he was like, oh snap,
guys who just walked into the building. Like one of
them songs was on, like like Quad City DJs or

(09:48):
something like that, like some Florida type music was on
or something like that. It was like crazy, and the
lights was going to strobe lights. Going walking in with
my teammates just like a scene out of the program.
So I come walking in, I was gonna go sit down,
you know, maybe get me a beer or to get
a pop or whatever. And and he starts hyping it
because we had just beat Ohio State, and I'm looking

(10:11):
on the like the TVs, and the TVs is going
they showing the highlights from the day, like your boys
on the highlights, like it's like some cool type stuff,
like real super slower type stuff. And he's hyping it
and he's hyping it. So I just go straight onto
the dad's floor and he goes, Okay, here we go.
We're gonna turn it up. We're going to see who

(10:32):
can freak LeVar Errington the best. And he turned on
some song and I mean it was like I don't
know how many people it was. I don't know, I
do not know. I'm gonna it's really gonna happen. This
is really happening. And I'm looking around, can you I'm

(10:55):
looking around saying freak.

Speaker 7 (10:56):
King looks like, by the way, yeah, exactly does that
mean when they say that.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
Oh well, it was being defined by a whole lot
of mother's daughters that night. I'll say that. And let's
just say I'm glad that I used to Even though
my legs aren't big back then, they were really, really
really strong and they're a lot of lifting and a
lot of people was using my leg as a pole

(11:23):
at the same exact time. Now, at the same exact time, Like,
I don't know how that many people were able to get.

Speaker 7 (11:31):
A hold of me, but it was like, Lee, I mean,
what team we talked about here? No, no, this is
Penn State's State College.

Speaker 1 (11:42):
Oh yeah, this was not team Lee. Yeah, it was
the other team.

Speaker 5 (11:48):
Oh yeah, hey, hey.

Speaker 1 (11:51):
Then we I can't tell y'all the rest of the story,
but I'll tell y'all or I'll text it to y'all.
I'll text it to y'all. But needless to say, that
was an amazing, amazing night. And then we went to
we went to the diner after where everybody congregates after
and I got me some nice, nice breakfast potatoes with

(12:15):
some steak and eggs and washed it down with a
sticky bun, you know, the famed sticky bun of of
State College. Yeah, And then went to sleep for like
an hour, and then went up and got my lift
in and we did a little film review and then
you know the wash some NFL football. Damn that now

(12:35):
that I could do if I was in reindeer games,
like and it was like kind of like every single
day repeats that would have been one of them. That
would have been one of them. Yeah, well, so thank
you guys for allowing me to have a moment. I
don't even know how the hell we got here.

Speaker 7 (12:56):
I don't know, but you know what, what's usually john
us I did accountability for it, but it's one hundred percent.

Speaker 5 (13:06):
Hold on what did I do?

Speaker 3 (13:07):
I didn't.

Speaker 5 (13:07):
All we did was say that we were disappointed that
he didn't Actually did we.

Speaker 6 (13:12):
Have any of these stories the past four days which
I had to anchor?

Speaker 1 (13:15):
No, we did exactly.

Speaker 6 (13:19):
I would say, you are the ingredient that that you
know puts us down this winding.

Speaker 5 (13:24):
Are you saying, see somebody told me this one time,
Mike Carmen, Fox sports radio host. Uh, he said one
time that I have this ability to bring out the
worst and everybody I'm around. Are you saying that that's
the case on this is Shue.

Speaker 3 (13:37):
I didn't say that.

Speaker 7 (13:37):
Okay, you definitely directed the conversation down this path that
we got there.

Speaker 5 (13:42):
Look, all I'm saying is this, Oh, I was just
a little disappointed he didn't actually get down and kiss
the ground. It was just the hand on on the pavement.
That's disappointing kind of changes, how.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
I thought, asked me.

Speaker 3 (13:55):
But then you got this.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
Could you guys ask as what we would I have
stayed in college? Like, yes, I would have stayed in college. Absolutely,
it could be worse. You get your text message, look
at your text message. Walking down the sidewalk with my
teammates and they're laughing at me. And I didn't know
why they was laughing at me. And this was why
they were laughing at me, because they were looking at
my my, my jeans and how messed up my jeans.

Speaker 5 (14:19):
Oh, you had a sticky but before the sticky button.

Speaker 3 (14:23):
Just could have break, just just could have break.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
Why would you say that?

Speaker 5 (15:51):
The Two Pros and a Cup of Joe here on
Fox Sports Radio. So coming up in a little over
twenty minutes from now, we are going to have the
BQ News, a Wednesday tradition here from the time iraq
dot Com studios. But speaking of another Wednesday tradition and
apparently it's a daily tradition. The takeover was real and
he's back. The old p on Twitter is where you
can find in Petro's Papadegas, the Cost of the Petros

(16:14):
and Money Show, which you can hear on the Blowtorch
and five seven e LA Sports Fox college football analyst
p how to go Your thoughts on having to work
daily with LeVar and Brady.

Speaker 7 (16:27):
It was fun. It was We had a good time.
You know, it's not easy getting up and then doing
the other.

Speaker 9 (16:33):
Show in the afternoon, as you know, Jonas.

Speaker 7 (16:35):
Yeah, but I only did an hour and that's all
I was allowed to do, so we had a good time.
I thought it went okay. There were some controversies. Brady
got a little upset about a comment or two that
I made, was that what was.

Speaker 3 (16:53):
That upset about Petros?

Speaker 7 (16:55):
Well about the size of his head, which which we
did come to find out that Petros doesn't.

Speaker 9 (17:01):
Come to find out anything.

Speaker 3 (17:03):
Well, we did.

Speaker 6 (17:03):
We discovered this because Petros doesn't like acknowledging the fact
that he actually wears a bigger size hat. But then
we it led us to the conclusion that he thinks
my head's just longer, not necessarily bigger than his, because
his looks like a medicine.

Speaker 7 (17:16):
Well, I mean, I think, well, no, that's not what
I said. That's like you said, is not toothpick.

Speaker 3 (17:24):
Well, that's true, but that's the conclusion we came to.

Speaker 7 (17:27):
No no, No, I'm not gonna You're gonna put words
in my mouth when I'm the gas now, which is
the exact same thing you just did to me. Petrosan. No, listen,
here's what the Brady got buttered. Because his head looks
like a shoe box.

Speaker 3 (17:42):
I would rather have a shoe box. I'm not laughing
a medicine ball.

Speaker 9 (17:46):
I think we should.

Speaker 2 (17:47):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (17:48):
The true measurement is.

Speaker 1 (17:49):
Not shoe box of medicine ball.

Speaker 3 (17:52):
So we have to do that. We have to do
the we have to do the We have.

Speaker 7 (17:57):
To do the measurement where you know, like they used
to measure our body fat on the football team, they
have to put him in a vat of water.

Speaker 9 (18:04):
Do it with you'all's heads.

Speaker 1 (18:07):
They're gonna use the little squeeze the caliber dense My gosh.

Speaker 3 (18:14):
Remember the calipers.

Speaker 1 (18:18):
They gonna squeeze up heads.

Speaker 7 (18:23):
That is amazing, did you guys Like we had this
kinesiology department at USC which is in the p Pe Building,
which is this ancient building at USC that it used
to have all the locker rooms and all that when
my dad played there. In fact, the building is so old.
They had the nineteen thirty two Olympics. The pool in

(18:46):
that building is the one from the movie Cocoon You've
never seen.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
Yeah, so the eggs in there.

Speaker 7 (18:53):
Yeah, it's an indoor pool at USC and it's classic
because it's from the thirties. Actually did a lot of
rehab there. But there's all these weird rooms in that
old building. And they used to take us into the
building to measure our body fat where they put you
in the vat of water.

Speaker 3 (19:12):
And they didn't.

Speaker 7 (19:13):
Realize that like half the dudes on the team, well
not half, but a lot of dudes were not comfortable swimming.

Speaker 3 (19:19):
And it just became a real I can't see how.

Speaker 9 (19:23):
Anybody got an accurate measurement on with.

Speaker 3 (19:25):
All the splashing and thrashing around.

Speaker 9 (19:28):
It was a mess.

Speaker 3 (19:29):
But I think that would be the true.

Speaker 7 (19:31):
Mark of being able to measure whose head is in
fact the biggest between braid.

Speaker 3 (19:38):
We will set this up. I'll fly out to La
to set this up.

Speaker 7 (19:41):
There has to be a bucket of water and it's
a measure of the spill, the overtness.

Speaker 5 (19:51):
Hey, what size hat do you wear? Petros seven and
five eighths? Ok, but you know if I shaved my
shirt up telling I'm Bruce Bochi. Shut up, Brady, just
because your head comes up like a pin, like a bottle.

Speaker 3 (20:09):
Thanks for Kevin Hawts and the good Year blim.

Speaker 6 (20:11):
Couldn't use your head today to float shut out the
golf tournaments.

Speaker 7 (20:14):
Yeah, you don't even know where the Goodyear Blimp takes off. Carson, California.
It's not there's one, Carson, Ohio.

Speaker 1 (20:24):
It's a lot.

Speaker 3 (20:25):
There's only one.

Speaker 7 (20:26):
It's Carson calis won an acron California, Ohio is a lie.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
I used to every day going to Long Beach any day.

Speaker 3 (20:34):
Carson, you're delusial for getting nailed by the King.

Speaker 7 (20:37):
This was and the and the Goodyear Blimp flies over
the only amusement park that matters Disneyland and knots. Yeah,
now that is not true anyway. That's what happened while
you were gone. Just a lot of this paintings.

Speaker 6 (20:53):
Petros did an amazing job, as he always does, stepping
into it, he putting flare on it.

Speaker 1 (20:58):
It was awesome.

Speaker 3 (20:58):
It was a lot of fun to it.

Speaker 5 (21:01):
I mean, Petros. From what I'm seeing here, we finally
have the answer, and it looks like the Lakers are
zeroing in on JJ Reddick as their head coach. Can
you believe it? Because I thought for sure this was
going to go in another direction, But apparently the wording
being used is that there's zeroing in on him and

(21:22):
that Lebron James, as you put it, Pee, is lamad
about Kyrie Irving not being his teammate anymore. So we
have figured out a way to get the Lakers in
the finals somehow, some way. Congratulations to your friends at
the Bus family on their job well done here, Pee.

Speaker 7 (21:39):
Can you believe that late Judas is lay mad about
lay betrayal today from like ten years ago?

Speaker 1 (21:47):
Uh?

Speaker 7 (21:48):
You know, it's really funny. We had Robert Orion yesterday
and you guys.

Speaker 3 (21:53):
Know Robert or of course, yeah, of course, big Shut.

Speaker 9 (21:56):
Seven championships and all that.

Speaker 7 (21:58):
And Robert or is interesting because he has a son
who played big time Southern California high school basketball and
has committed to Mick Cronin and U C l A,
so he knows about Brownie and all that too. And uh,
we asked him about the JJ Reddick thing and.

Speaker 9 (22:16):
He called him a reach around code.

Speaker 1 (22:18):
Oh wow, oh wow, wait and that way, wait, who's Mick?

Speaker 9 (22:26):
No, Robert Or he said that JJ Reddick was a Reacher.

Speaker 7 (22:31):
Oh my god, and uh yeah, and then he was like,
Brodnye James six three. I could tell you wasn't six
three my son six three. And I was like, damn
ri yeah, yeah, get it, Robert or joining us courtesy
a bet online?

Speaker 3 (22:45):
What else you got?

Speaker 1 (22:47):
Really?

Speaker 7 (22:51):
I like the Mavericks and five he was awesome. Uh
and uh it was. It was pretty funny. But you're
starting to hear people with a little bit of pushback.
It's not like they're reading the tea leaves, but you're
starting to hear people that are also getting tired of
being mailed by the king.

Speaker 3 (23:09):
And they didn't even live here in La.

Speaker 7 (23:12):
But I mean, hire whoever you want, do whatever you want,
act however you want, but stop acting like it wasn't
you that did it, right, Stop hiding behind all of
these different executives that you act. I mean, it's he's
doing the same thing with Kyrie. Well I'm mad. I'm
not playing with Kyrie. It's like, well it was because

(23:33):
of you in the first place.

Speaker 3 (23:34):
It's you know, a Reacher round.

Speaker 1 (23:38):
That's crazy, right, that's crazy. I mean I heard it
all on radio.

Speaker 6 (23:44):
Yeah, And if I was to tell you that Kyrie
Irvin actually has a player option after next season.

Speaker 3 (23:50):
With that shock you were surprise.

Speaker 7 (23:51):
You No, I mean, I don't know that, But why
would you want to Like why do you want to
go back to play with Lebron?

Speaker 1 (23:58):
Like?

Speaker 3 (23:58):
Why would you want to go back to do that?

Speaker 6 (24:00):
That's a great question, but it's not one that I
think in this I guess when I watched what you
were responded to on X yesterday, I think it's more
of a plead from Lebron that maybe he's trying to
make sure Kyrie knows that he wants to play with
him again. But your question is fair, like why would
you want to go back to that at that point
in time in Kyrie's career, given where he's at now

(24:22):
with the Mavericks.

Speaker 9 (24:23):
This is all I mean.

Speaker 3 (24:26):
It's terrible.

Speaker 7 (24:26):
The NBA has ruined their schedule, and obviously with the
two conference championships that went faster than they would want
them to, and this long gap between the end of
the finals and the end of the Conference finals in
the beginning of the NBA Finals, which is still one
night away written in cursive, horrible, it really is, And

(24:54):
so what has become the storylines the twenty four hour storylines.
Whatever Lebron wants to say on his podcast that becomes
circulated national news in the in the car wash of
the twenty four hour news media, and this WNBA tit
for tat back and forth steven A and Chinee or

(25:16):
whatever the girl's name is yelling at each other.

Speaker 3 (25:20):
You know, it's sad, that's not our name.

Speaker 1 (25:26):
I don't believe so, Molly, Oh, I don't know that's
the you're talking about this studio show.

Speaker 7 (25:31):
Yeah, whatever, it is, like, that's you know, I turn
on my thing. It's like Kendrick Perkins says this about
Caitlin Clark. I say, this is what was said about
Angel Reese, and it's like, my god, what are you
guys doing to yourselves? Schedule this better. I mean, I
know there's hockey games or whatever, and I know that
there's concerts at these venues, but we got to do
this a little bit better.

Speaker 3 (25:52):
We have like two weeks.

Speaker 7 (25:54):
Of nothing to talk about before we fall into the
crevass of baseball and the the football summertime in earnest.

Speaker 1 (26:02):
Did you just say crevis yes or crevass yeah. I
mean the way you said it was way more high
high society. But that was like just making sure you
meant Crevis.

Speaker 7 (26:14):
Crevass Petro's I want to pick your brain just about
We read the story earlier and Netflix is struggling to
sell advertising for their Christmas Day games that they.

Speaker 3 (26:24):
Pilled seventy five million.

Speaker 6 (26:28):
Does this shock you at all, as like streaming services
get more involved in the TV world and just how
this all works in live sports.

Speaker 7 (26:34):
I'm not that smart about this stuff, but I go
to the Fox Seminar.

Speaker 9 (26:40):
Every year, at least I'm barely hanging on.

Speaker 7 (26:44):
And last year was really interesting to me because they
had somebody up there I think it was Rupert Murdoch
Son or you know, one of these high ranking television
global executives, and it's it's because they said, all of
these companies have created these streaming services, whether it's Hulu.

Speaker 9 (27:06):
Or Netflix or I mean name some other ones.

Speaker 7 (27:10):
Amazon, Paramount, Apple, plus, they all are losing money. They
are all sinking billions and billions of dollars to make
these streaming things work. Because Netflix was so successful when
it started. Where Fox and because of the political angles
or whatever of the news these days, people feel it's

(27:34):
unsavory or something to mention Fox News, But just purely
mentioning it as a live news company, right or Sky
which is what they do in Australia and in Europe. Yes,
Sky News. They pivoted. They don't have a streaming service.
So Fox got out of all that, got smaller, pivoted

(27:57):
to do only live news and live sports, and they're
not losing money. So I mean that when you mentioned that,
that's what comes into my mind is that kind of
macro simplistic thing where the Fox people were like, look,
we're not doing this because everybody else is losing money

(28:19):
and trying to throw a football game on here, trying
to throw this on there to push their streaming services.
But the truth is, I mean, what do you do
if you have a game on Netflix or Amazon, NFL
whatever it is. You watch the game and they inundate
you and push you with whatever commercials for whatever show

(28:39):
they have, right, and like this will make everybody watch
Ted Lasso, you know, or whatever, And it doesn't really
work that way, not really. I mean, people just want
to watch a game, and I don't know how much
it helps you when you get your advertising advertising and
maybe people will watch your shows or buy this stream

(29:00):
mean service, but those things are going in the wrong direction,
and I don't know if sports will be able to
put enough fingers in the dike to.

Speaker 3 (29:08):
Plug the holes of a.

Speaker 7 (29:10):
Financial I guess what would you say, hemorrhaging, which is
from what I understand.

Speaker 9 (29:17):
What's happening with a lot of those services.

Speaker 7 (29:19):
So it doesn't surprise me because I was awake for
that part of the seminar.

Speaker 1 (29:25):
Hey, Pee, I know, I know we only have a
couple of minutes left, but I want to touch on something.

Speaker 3 (29:30):
You want to make room for the BQ news.

Speaker 1 (29:32):
I know we don't want to go.

Speaker 3 (29:34):
It's better than are you in or are you out right?

Speaker 1 (29:36):
That's probably true.

Speaker 9 (29:37):
Would you rather be sticky or itchy or itchy?

Speaker 3 (29:42):
Well, I don't know what would Jonah say?

Speaker 5 (29:44):
Wait a second, was that one that one of them sit.

Speaker 7 (29:47):
Here waiting to come on at four fifty in the morning,
and I'm like, I can't.

Speaker 9 (29:51):
I don't think I could do this.

Speaker 3 (29:57):
You guys went number two all over our games.

Speaker 1 (30:00):
You guys talked the other day about USC and Lincoln rally,
and Q had made a point at that it wasn't
a successful tenure for him thus far. You kind of
pushed back on it. It made me wonder. I guess
I wanted to follow up on how important is this

(30:20):
year for Lincoln Rally in terms of could this be
a hot seat year for the rally? It doesn't have
a good year, yes, looking at it?

Speaker 3 (30:31):
Okay, wow, yeah, I mean look at last year.

Speaker 7 (30:36):
Last year is one of the most disappointing years in
USC football history, coming off a Heisman winner, an offseason
pumping up this player talking about I think they started
out as a top five team in the country and
it was less than less than worse.

Speaker 3 (30:53):
I mean it was bad.

Speaker 7 (30:55):
So if they if they have any kind of season
like that again, if he's a five hundred coach again,
and they don't show a bunch of promise with the
new quarterback on the new defense, yeah he's gonna be
on the hot seat. He's got a brand new quarterback,
he's got a new ad that didn't hire him, and
obviously massive challenges and a new conference. Did you see

(31:16):
that Joel Clatt came out and supported Colin Cowherd in
his blasphemy. Did you see that about getting rid of
the USC Notre Dame rivalry? How are we going to
handle Joel Clatt?

Speaker 6 (31:26):
Joel takes a shot at Notre Dame every summer, every offseason.

Speaker 3 (31:32):
It has to include them at some point.

Speaker 9 (31:34):
We got into a thing with you a few times.

Speaker 6 (31:36):
Yeah, and the reality is is, and I hate to
admit this, I wonder if some of the motivation is
behind wanting to get one of the blue Blood's a
big brand out there, right, Like it's like you're always
going to talk about the Cowboys, we talk about the Lakers,
we talk about Lebron like those continually come up in
new cycles because they're polarizing, people want to talk about them.

Speaker 3 (31:56):
That doesn't really have much weight to it.

Speaker 6 (31:59):
But if if that's what Southern Cap wants to do,
that's what Southern Cap wants to do. I don't think
Notre Dame will have any shortage.

Speaker 7 (32:04):
Well just because Colin Cowhard and Joel Klatt say something
about us, he does that mean that's what USC.

Speaker 3 (32:09):
Wants to do.

Speaker 6 (32:10):
Damn it's a valid question. But there'll be no shortage
of suitors though for that rivalry. Uh, you know, I
if Michigan wants to bring back an annual rivalry or
someone in that nature.

Speaker 3 (32:19):
So again, Penn State, Penn State, there you go.

Speaker 1 (32:23):
Make that was a big one. Was a big one.

Speaker 7 (32:25):
Yeah, Well, if we're not going to have SC play
Notre Dame, what are we gonna do? Why are we
even playing college football anymore?

Speaker 1 (32:30):
Well, we're gonna stop caring about USC more so than anything.
Oh geez, if we replace it with Ohio State, Michigan
or Penn State, then people will be like, why are
we paying attention to USC?

Speaker 3 (32:42):
I will see this, Petros and don't joke it.

Speaker 7 (32:46):
I will say this stuff because there is a bit
of a sense on the West coast of like, hey,
you know, USC isn't what it was when Matt and
Reggie were there.

Speaker 3 (32:54):
But I think there's a lot of people.

Speaker 7 (32:55):
Who live, well, USC wasn't what it was that fifteen
years before Matt and Reggie were there. I mean, sure,
but I'm just saying there's a lot of people who
are still living in that and I think the problem
is is like they've had if they didn't move to
the big ten. Like to me, even though they were
holding up the Pac twelve, they're getting lost a little
bit as you look at the Ohio States, the Michigan's,
the Georgia's, the Bamas of the world start to really

(33:16):
carry the rest of college football.

Speaker 3 (33:19):
And I think that's one of the way things.

Speaker 7 (33:21):
That I mean, Look, I don't sit here and I
don't wear my cardinal and gold very much. But we're
talking about a team they had a Heisman Trophy winner
and we're playing in a game for the playoff, like
thirteen or fourteen months ago.

Speaker 3 (33:36):
You know, I mean, okay, but what were they doing
before that?

Speaker 7 (33:39):
Well, they had to fire the coach. You know, they
paid one hundred million dollars to get a new coach.
They did that to themselves. And you went through a decade, right, Well, yeah,
they did to itselves. But you're only furthering my point.

Speaker 6 (33:50):
You went through a decade of I guess you'd say
mediocrity however you want to put it, but not playing
to the standard of what a lot of people feel
like the Matt Reggie that area, even with Pete Carroll
success they had in that run in that time the
early two thousands and so all I'm saying is I
think there's become this thought or a little bit of
if they don't want to play those rillies, that's fine,

(34:11):
but you're gonna start to fall by the wayside As
far as the big boys of college.

Speaker 7 (34:15):
Well, who said they don't want to play the rivalries.
I mean, it's just well, Colin Caller, that's.

Speaker 3 (34:18):
What I'm saying.

Speaker 7 (34:19):
You're making Colin Coward went to Eastern Washington and Joel
went to Colorado.

Speaker 3 (34:23):
Sure, like what I mean? We got Coach Prime.

Speaker 7 (34:26):
My thing, My thing is, my thing is. I don't
care what USC was like a decade ago. I don't
care what us he was like fifty years ago. I
don't care what us he is like now. I don't
care what Notre Dame is like. I don't even care
if they don't if they stop being Catholic, USC and
Notre Dame have to play.

Speaker 3 (34:43):
That doesn't understand your point. I get it.

Speaker 6 (34:47):
I don't think not one from Notre Dame side saying
we don't want to play Southern cal.

Speaker 9 (34:50):
And no one from USC is saying that they don't
want to play.

Speaker 7 (34:53):
No Coward's got an honorary degree. I think it's so
he doesn't his team has red turf. Joel Clott helped
get Coach Prime hired. Well, listen, I don't want this
advice about an intersectional rivalry that's been going on for
over one hundred years.

Speaker 6 (35:09):
Well, just saying all these Southern California people converted in
the Trojans.

Speaker 3 (35:14):
That's what's happened here.

Speaker 5 (35:15):
Well, listen, it is two Pros and a Cup of
Joe here Fox Sports Radio. Thank you to Pat Trose.

say pantsless man.

Speaker 7 (36:40):
Who was wearing a blouse, decided to crash a sedan
into the lobby of a county jail on Monday night,
making all sorts of threats. The car was seen to
be smashing through the lobby, leaking out oil, in which
the individual said, you want to light this entire place
on fire.

Speaker 1 (36:58):
The roof is on fire.

Speaker 5 (37:01):
No pants, so these weren't dressed and no pants? That
was nuts, right?

Speaker 3 (37:05):
Just a blank? Really something else going on there? How
about this one?

Speaker 7 (37:08):
A sixty nine year old man in the state of
Florida decided to try to scam a Floda nonprofit out
of thousands of dollars, posing.

Speaker 3 (37:15):
As a cancer patient.

Speaker 7 (37:17):
Yeah, apparently He's done this in four other states as well,
so this isn't the.

Speaker 3 (37:22):
First spot for him. Good to know there's still some
quality people out there.

Speaker 5 (37:25):
I mean, listen, if it worked, Deltawaere, why wouldn't you
try it? You know, here's four for four at that point, what.

Speaker 1 (37:32):

Speaker 5 (37:33):

the ball. He's made all four, Like.
