x at Alberprier a B. Good morning, I'd be Thursday
(01:46):
to you. Hey, we are good.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Week.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
One most surprising result for you, either good or bad,
was what.
Speaker 6 (02:01):
That's a good question?
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Uh?
Speaker 7 (02:03):
The most surprising, you know, I god, I don't know that.
I was really stunned by anything. I thought Caleb would
look better, I think, on Monday night than he did.
Speaker 6 (02:15):
I thought he held the ball.
Speaker 7 (02:16):
And I thought like it kind of still looked it
looked like he wasn't playing fast enough. I would say,
I don't know. I mean, like I know most people
will say the dolphins, but I thought the dolphins were
going to have some problems, you know, coming.
Speaker 6 (02:33):
Out of the gate.
Speaker 7 (02:36):
It stump me there, Jonas. I don't know, I don't
know that anything was really shocking.
Speaker 6 (02:40):
Any shocking guys.
Speaker 8 (02:42):
Yeah, the Colts. I didn't think the Colts were going
to actually drum the Dolphins. I thought the teams maybe
the Colts good.
Speaker 6 (02:49):
Yeah, I think the Colts are a good one.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Brady.
Speaker 7 (02:51):
I like, and I think like it's probably another example
of like what what what happens with quarterbacks in the NFL?
You know, And and I think kind of an evangelist
for these guys like you know, Sam Darnold and Baker
Mayfield and Gino Smith and how what would we give
up on guys who are highly drafted And the ultimate
example of it, probably from fifteen years ago is you know,
(03:12):
it was Alex Smith, you know, but I think, you know,
Shane Steiken did a good job of building an offense
for Daniel Jones, and you know, like really what they
were looking for and this was you know, sort of
like I think an interesting component to it. Like they
gave me the stat when I was there over the
summer where they were twenty ninth in the league in
(03:32):
total defense and thirtieth the giveaways last year and they
still won eight games, Right, So they bring in luey
in and Romo to fix the defense, and then you know,
like really like what Shane's thing was was like, we
just need to play a lot cleaner on offense, and
we just need somebody to come in and operate, to
operate the system. And they didn't feel like Anthony Richardson
(03:55):
was doing that at a high enough level, and they
really felt like it was holding the talent they had
on that side of the ball back. And I think
what you saw with Daniel Jones wasn't necessarily spectacular, but
I don't think that that's what they thought they needed.
Like they felt like what they needed with somebody's gonna
put you know, Michael Pittman and Josh Downs and Alex
(04:16):
Pearce and Tyler Warren and Jonathan Taylor in a position
to make plays. And that's exactly what Daniel Jones did, right.
Speaker 9 (04:23):
Carly Ers Gordon wearing headphones in that Colts game.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
That did that also add to your.
Speaker 7 (04:31):
Surprise of Yeah, yeah, I don't know how often the
owners on the headset I have first stories about.
Speaker 6 (04:40):
Have you guys heard about these like.
Speaker 7 (04:41):
Where like sometimes they're in the suite and they'll have
like a transmitter or whatever, or they'll have I don't
know if it's an actual headset all the time, like
maybe it's like just that an ear piece or something,
but they'll they be able to hear it. Like have
you you have heard of that, right?
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Yeah? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (04:56):
I mean so, like, I guess it's not that unusual that, like,
you know, the owner would want to listen in. I
don't know how much you're gleaning from it if you're
the owner, unless you're like, like I just I mean,
you guys know what it sounds like ono headsets.
Speaker 6 (05:11):
It's like if you don't.
Speaker 7 (05:13):
Really know what's going on, Like it's like everybody's talking
in code, you know what I mean. Like, so, but
I think we've seen that before too, So I don't know.
I I it is a little bit of a weird
look for your first game as principal owner, But you know,
I don't think it's that uncommon that owners will kind
of hover in those.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Sorts of ways.
Speaker 8 (05:34):
So, so part of the discussion we had it wasn't
so much about like whether or not she should be
doing this. It was more like, well, then you need
to be listening really throughout the week because otherwise you
don't really have the context to what's happening. And her
explanation of like well maybe someone tagged the wrong route
or and it's I'm like, okay, that's not how this works,
(05:55):
but you know it sounds bad saying Brady.
Speaker 7 (05:59):
Is like if you don't have that, like if you
weren't in practice every day during training camp, like how
would you be able to really make heads Because like
it's like anything else, right, Like if you've had a
running conversation with somebody on something for a month and
a half and like you're and somebody just jumps in
and listens to you having that running conversation with somebody
about anything, like they're going to lack all the context
(06:22):
that you've got on it, right, Like I'm not even
just not just football, just like in anything, right, No.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
Yeah, I mean you're right.
Speaker 8 (06:30):
And then but again it kind of just showed that
like even what she was saying, well, this problem, you know,
if it reveals itself, it's like, well that problem isn't
really a reality, is what she was trying to describe.
The gridded question becomes because when I heard this My
first thought was, Ooh, that's bad for Shane Steichen then,
because Chris Ballard's not on that like a general manager
(06:52):
is not being evaluated with every single game on a
headset like that, right, So it almost led me to
think that, like if there is, because it's technically new
ownership in a way, Yeah, it almost let me to believe, like,
what's Shane Steichen's in the crossairs of them, not Chris Ballard?
Yet Ballard's been there for longer, they haven't won a division.
(07:13):
I think you could make some you can you could
have some questions about how they built this roster.
Speaker 5 (07:19):
Did you get that sense though, that like.
Speaker 8 (07:21):
Maybe it's pointed at the coach for some reason, at
least based on those comments.
Speaker 6 (07:25):
I don't know.
Speaker 7 (07:26):
I mean, look, I think you know it's weird because,
like I know a lot of coaches, there's a little
paranoia with coaches sometimes over this. And I think I
hesitate to use that word because I think sometimes it's
justified paranoia. I mean, I think in a lot of
cases is justified paranoia. Where like if there is any
sort of divide, and I'm not saying there is one
(07:46):
between Chris and Shane, but like if there is any
sort of divide between the coach and the general manager,
what the coach will say to you will is, well,
who sits next to the to the owner during the games? Right,
And there's always this feeling like is the GM up
there picking apart, like, well, I gave him players, Well
look at how look at this guy's talent? Well look
(08:08):
at that catch that guy made. How come he doesn't
have seven catches?
Speaker 6 (08:11):
Look at that? Look at that? Look look at that?
Look at that pressure?
Speaker 7 (08:15):
The sense of end God, how come we can't get
him to the quarterback more?
Speaker 6 (08:18):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 7 (08:19):
Like, so that definitely can exist, and you know, in
a lot of cases, like the owner will feel a
little bit more I would say a little bit more
connected to the to the general manager, because the general
manager is a front office person. The general managers generally
more of a suit you know. So so yeah, I
(08:40):
mean I think those sorts of dynamics exist. And I
would say this like, if if you have a coach
who is in any way dealing with any sort of
pressure on his job, you have to be very careful
about the things that you do to exacerbate at that.
Speaker 6 (09:00):
And I would say, like if if.
Speaker 7 (09:03):
If there's any sort of feeling the shanstake and is
coaching for his job this year, I think you just
have to have like the self awareness to know, if
you're the owner, this is gonna have to be a
really bad look for him. This is not going to
make me look good, and this is ultimately gonna create.
Speaker 6 (09:20):
A problem for for for for.
Speaker 7 (09:23):
Him and his staff and potentially something that could seep
into the locker room.
Speaker 6 (09:27):
So I'm with you on that.
Speaker 7 (09:28):
Like that, you have to be aware of the of
the of the spot that you're in and maybe that's
just part of the process and in learning how to
do the job becoming the principal owner.
Speaker 6 (09:38):
If you're probably a.
Speaker 9 (09:39):
Sagor of court abe uh Brian day Ball he made
a decision that's a I don't know if it's considered
a gutsy decision or the most sensible of decisions, but
he named Russell Wilson the starter going into Week two
of the NFL season. What's your take on that and
(10:03):
how much runway and your estimation does Dave Ball have.
Speaker 7 (10:08):
So I think I think a lot of this is
going to relate back to the offensive line they didn't
have Andrew Thomas in week one. We'll see, you know,
when they get him back.
Speaker 6 (10:18):
That's a really big deal.
Speaker 7 (10:19):
Guys like I like, I like, I.
Speaker 6 (10:22):
Feel like this is something.
Speaker 7 (10:24):
This is a piece of this puzzle that people have
really overlooked. They spent a lot of resources and rebuilding
their offensive line last year.
Speaker 6 (10:32):
And they felt like, all right, like the.
Speaker 7 (10:34):
First five or six weeks of the season, they actually
played pretty well, and then Andrew Thomas, their left tackle,
goes down, and then one thing led to another and
the whole thing imploded and it became a big mess again.
And so like this year, they've gone back and they've
doubled down on the same group. So it's you know,
(10:55):
it's it's Thomas and Illumina at the tackles. It span
Rodin and and run In at the guards, and it's
and it's it's it's Schmid's at center.
Speaker 6 (11:05):
Right, So you've got the same group coming back.
Speaker 7 (11:08):
You've made that conscious decision that you know, we did
get it right in twenty four, but the Thomas injury
undermined everything.
Speaker 6 (11:14):
And so like, you know, you've made that bet on
your offensive line.
Speaker 7 (11:18):
When Thomas gets back in there, you'd hope things stabilize
and I think if things stabilized, then that's when you've
got the Lee way to go to Jackson Dart.
Speaker 6 (11:27):
They think the world of them.
Speaker 7 (11:28):
I said this over the summer, like I like, I like,
I really feel like, if anything, the least got shorter
on Russell Wilson as Jackson Dart really started to check
check every box with the coaches, and they have already
displayed to all of us in a public way by
making him the second quarterback they would feel comfortable putting
him in a game right here, right now. So you know,
(11:50):
I think, you know, part of this is just kind
of making sure that you're you're looking out for the
development of the young quarterback and and and trying to
put them in a good situation. And you know, I
think as far as that goes, it's going to be
like when that offensive line is stabilized, then you feel
comfortable putting him in there. And then I think Russell
Wilson's unnoticed. But he's got to play a lot better
(12:11):
than he did last week, that's for sure, because a
lot of the problems the Steelers people had with the
way he played last year were certainly there.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
On Sunday against the Commanders, Albert Breer, senior NFL reporter,
lead content strategist at the MMQB, joining us here on
Fox Sports Radio Get him on X at Albert Breer. So,
you'd mentioned the Dolphins performance that you weren't totally surprised
by it because you didn't have high expectations for him.
But it just feels like the conversations are getting louder
(12:40):
and louder surrounding Mike McDaniel. What are you hearing from
people as to how thin the ices that he's currently
operating on.
Speaker 6 (12:51):
Well, so I think i'd said there are a couple
of things to know. First of all, he was extended
last year, so you would be.
Speaker 7 (12:55):
The the This is never a non factor that the
owner would be eating some money and all of that.
Speaker 6 (13:00):
That's that's not a nonfactor.
Speaker 7 (13:03):
And I think Mike's a I think Mike's a really good.
Speaker 6 (13:05):
Coach, you know.
Speaker 7 (13:06):
I like, I think he from a tactical standpoints, one
of the best in the NFL, you know, But like
there were these questions with him, like before he became
a head coach, what happens when the bleep it's the
fan and then you hear stuff, you know, through the
off season is that place, is that Is that building
healthy right now? Is the locker room healthy right now?
Speaker 6 (13:29):
They go through a bit.
Speaker 7 (13:30):
Of a rebuild and trading Jalen Ramsey Toront Armstead retires.
You know, I think they've aged out and and and
in certain positions. And he's got two problems now, Like
I think the first problem is that a lot of
the narrative flows into the fact that the effort didn't
look good, that did not look like a team that
(13:51):
had a lot of energy playing against the Colts on Sundays,
So you want to call him narratives whatever they are
over the last few months, they sort of match what
happened in the opener. So that's problem number one. Problem
number two is that if you are going through this
sort of reset where you're moving off of this team,
this group that you went all in on while two
(14:12):
was on his rookie contract, this would be the natural
time to start asking big picture questions.
Speaker 6 (14:18):
Is this the guy that.
Speaker 7 (14:18):
We want to lead our rebuild if we are going
to rebuild, is this the.
Speaker 6 (14:22):
Person that we want there?
Speaker 7 (14:24):
And a kind of a sidebar to that is the
fact that you've got a guy in your defensive coordinator,
Anthony Weaver, who some people view as a as a
future head coach, who's interviewed head coaching job. So you
have somebody on your staff that you might want to
take a look at. So like, I'm not declaring it's
over after one week. They've got plenty of time to
(14:46):
come off the mat.
Speaker 6 (14:47):
Week one's weird.
Speaker 7 (14:48):
You know, they could come out and rip off three
straight wins and this conversation looks stupid. But you know,
I'd say those two things are really sort of working
against Mike right now. You know, I'd say number one
again like kind of how the narrative matched the effort
on Sunday. And then number two, like the fact that
(15:09):
they're at this, you know, this natural point of resetting
some things with the ross or where you do ask
those big picture questions on whether or not you want
the current leadership leaving the rebuild.
Speaker 8 (15:22):
We were just having this conversation about the San Francisco
forty nine ers kind of where that team's at.
Speaker 5 (15:27):
You know, mccaffree is still doing with the calf injury,
pretty carry down multiple weeks.
Speaker 8 (15:31):
Kittles on IR, I mean, it just it feels like
this is a team that hit their ceiling and you know,
might be a playoff team because the NFC is obviously
weaker than the AFC, but is probably closer to a
rebuild or treading in that direction more so than a
team that's that's building.
Speaker 5 (15:49):
Do you disagree with that? Like where where would you say?
Speaker 8 (15:51):
The San Francisco forty nine ers are out at this point?
Speaker 7 (15:54):
So like they actually have like kind of started to rebuild, Brad.
They played a lot of reviews on defense on Sunday,
and they I think are starting to lean into some
younger players on offense as well. And you know, like
that that's Ricky Piersoll, you know, like that's you know,
(16:14):
I think Juwan Jennings when he gets healthy is another
piece of that. Like you know, I you's not old
and Iuka is Ayuka is not out there right now,
you know, so they are starting to lean on some
some younger players.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
You know.
Speaker 7 (16:28):
It's interesting the conversation I had with Kyle and John
Lynch about this over the summer, a lot of it
centered on like how the guys that they let go
this year, the difference is that those are guys like
those aren't guys that they.
Speaker 6 (16:41):
They didn't want to keep.
Speaker 7 (16:43):
You know what I mean, like they let go of
some guys they really like, Like they like Sufunda, they
like green Law, they like Jordan Mason, you know, who
wound up with the Vikings. So they let go of
guys that they really thought, like, you know, these guys
still have something left. We still like these guys, you know,
And it was because the of going all in over
the last few years. Now here's the good news. The
(17:05):
good news is they still have like a crew of
like Hall of Fame, Hall of Fame level players, right,
so Nick Bosa, Fred Warner, George Kittle, Christian McCaffrey. And
then you know, if you combine that with all right,
like we're playing a lot of rookies who should be
better in December than they are in September, you can
(17:25):
see where maybe this all does come together with a
weaker schedule, you know what I mean, Like maybe this
is an eleven or twelve win team that's supremely well coached.
Here's the problem with that, though, is they're already really
banged up. And is that a coincidence, right, or is
that just happen what happens with an older team because
Kittle's banged up, you know, like McCaffrey's banged up, you know, like,
(17:50):
is this just hey, it's an older team, like this.
Speaker 6 (17:53):
Is what happens?
Speaker 7 (17:54):
You know.
Speaker 6 (17:54):
Well, we'll have to see.
Speaker 7 (17:56):
But if they can keep those older guys on the field,
Warner and both and Kitt'll get back out there, and
Purty gets back out there, and mccaflee can stay healthy.
If they can keep those guys healthy and going, then
I still think they have a shot just because of
the strength of the program.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
All right, so moment of truth here, All right, enough
with all the shenanigans.
Speaker 4 (18:18):
Albert Brier, do you believe.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
That this Saturday, when it's all said and done, that
the Ohio State Buck guys will have beaten the Ohio
Bobcats by more than thirty and a half points.
Speaker 4 (18:35):
At the shoot?
Speaker 7 (18:37):
Well, oh, You've got a special place in my heart
for the Halloweens. I've spent there back in the day,
and they're a pretty good team, right, like I did
beat West Virginia.
Speaker 6 (18:48):
Am I right about that?
Speaker 3 (18:49):
Right?
Speaker 4 (18:50):
I believe?
Speaker 3 (18:51):
So?
Speaker 4 (18:51):
Yeah, they're one in one.
Speaker 7 (18:54):
Yeah, I mean you know what, like you know what,
I'll throw you a bone. Oh maybe, oh you covers thirty.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Five close loss at Rutgers for Ohio in Week one,
and then they followed that up with a win against
West Virginia.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
As you pointed out, we did they they did?
Speaker 7 (19:09):
They not win the MAC last year? Is that right?
Speaker 4 (19:12):
I don't recall.
Speaker 6 (19:14):
I don't know.
Speaker 7 (19:14):
Yeah, you have been you have been, uh, you have
been thrilled down on the on the on the MAC.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Well, I'm just I'm surprised that you gave as much
love as you did to the opponent, because normally it's
a very one sided, uh synopsis of a game involving
Ohio State, And here you are throwing love and and
those Halloween parties, those Halloween parties last year? Did they
they won the MAC last year?
Speaker 4 (19:38):
Abe?
Speaker 2 (19:38):
How good were those Halloween parties that that was the
lead as opposed to your Buckeyes.
Speaker 6 (19:43):
And your Brady. You can talk Brady.
Speaker 7 (19:45):
You I mean, you're in Ohio and you've ever been
to Halloween that Athens?
Speaker 2 (19:50):
I think I think we're having Uh we got some
technical difficulties with Brady at this point.
Speaker 6 (19:55):
Oh, that's unfortunate.
Speaker 7 (19:56):
No, Halloween and Athens is one of I would say
that they hit in the Marria and jim As Halloween
in Athens Ohio, it is.
Speaker 6 (20:04):
It is something else for sure.
Speaker 7 (20:06):
So yeah, I spent I spent a couple of halloweens
in Athens, and that's got a special place in my heart,
A fantastic, fantastic place Joe burrows hometown too.
Speaker 4 (20:16):
Yeah, I can imagine. I can imagine that was fun.
Speaker 3 (20:20):
Things took place there, huh out.
Speaker 7 (20:22):
Abts lots of lots of things that can't be discussed
on this Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
Ohio, Yay, that's why they call it Athen.

cut It. Jonas his neck is too. It's too long.
You need to cut it. Cut it, cut it, chin hears,
cut it, cut.
Speaker 4 (22:40):
It, cut it, cut it.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
You need to cut it.
Speaker 4 (22:47):
Two pros and a coup of jailpone Sports Radio. It's
a song about hookers.
Speaker 9 (22:53):
Yeah, uh, anybody anybody arrested off this song.
Speaker 4 (23:00):
Oh, it's about prices going up. We need to cut it.
Slash those prices.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
What price? What price is Lorena?
Speaker 4 (23:08):
You know the prices?
Speaker 5 (23:11):
Oh, that is a fun game.
Speaker 8 (23:13):
If you get a any city, you know, just yell
out the window how much?
Speaker 3 (23:19):
Who's the plug? I mean?
Speaker 8 (23:21):
Some people want to do market research, you know, they
do always surveys, that's one way of doing it.
Speaker 9 (23:25):
Then they come back with the conclusion they need to
cut it.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Well, that's why I always go to Home Depot because
everyone knows first impressions start with the first code. That's
why you can trust Kills primers for a two and
professional Finish Kills Primers now available exclusively at the Home
Depot if you're a pro, you know, sponsored by at
the Home Depot. All right, so we're going to have
Lee's leftovers coming up here in about fifteen minutes from now,
But there is a big matchup later on tonight in
(23:53):
the NFL. It's the kickoff of Week two in the
National Football League.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
We get a good one.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
I don't think I actually don't think Al Michael has
complained about any of the matchups in a little while.
I think people have gotten on him enough to where
you know, he just says, Hey, whatever, man is what
it is. I'm getting paid. I'm still great, and I'll
just call these games. But Commander's Packers, as Brady pointed
out earlier, does feel like these are two playoff teams.
Maybe they're going to meet up again, and so they'll
(24:19):
be kicking off in Green Bay, Wisconsin later on tonight.
And the big discussion on this show is whether or
not Lee can keep it together, because if there's one
thing Lee loves, it's watching the game and having a
couple of drinks followed by a couple dozen more.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
And so whether or not he's going to be able
to hold.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Off and not lick the lid, as they say later
on tonight, is really the big discussion here.
Speaker 4 (24:47):
I mean, are you confident going into this, Lee or no?
Speaker 5 (24:51):
Confident?
Speaker 4 (24:53):
No, but I'm dedicated, determined.
Speaker 8 (24:57):
That's interesting. That's a good way of putting it. Lee
we're rooting for you all though. I think you're definitely
gonna have a few adult beverages.
Speaker 4 (25:03):
Well, it depends how Michah performs tonight.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
Why is it just Micah?
Speaker 5 (25:07):
No, it doesn't. You didn't drink either way, Dude.
Speaker 4 (25:10):
For every sack you get, I get a beer a shot.
So I thought I thought of this one earlier. All right,
what about Evan Williams? What about every for every tackle.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Evan Williams makes? Yeah, you have a little mini bottle
of Evan Williams.
Speaker 4 (25:23):
Yeah, that's that's a good call. Yeah, how did how
do he did he have last week? I know we
got the intersection.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
I think he had two. So you had as many
of those in the first quarter. Yeah, so that's good.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
Well, I think that that that'll Uh. I think I
took care of that with the pregame. So we're all
good for week one. We're flush.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
Who are you planning on watching the game with? That
also would impact I don't know.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
I don't know yet. I'd like to probably just watch it.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
Home so you're at home.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
Yeah, he did have three tackles last week, by the way, Okay, I.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Mean three mini bottles will get you get a nice
little head.
Speaker 4 (25:56):
Star, wouldn't it? Oh yeah, yeah, all right.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
So we will see whether or not any of that
stuff entered into the equation when Lee decided to come
up with these lines for another edition of something we
do on the show called this.
Speaker 10 (26:14):
Time to put your money where your mouth is.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
I have been losing, you know, you aligning low life
gamely the.
Speaker 5 (26:20):
Genuine it's over under.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
You guys are gonna get that work again in a
pick segment on this show.
Speaker 4 (26:26):
That's all I do is win? All right, Lee, what
do we got? So the Packers are three and a
half point favorites versus the Commanders, but the over under
on the game is forty eight and a half on draft.
Speaker 8 (26:36):
Picks under first off, First off, Joonas, you're a last
in are against the spread picks.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
Now, because you guys are doing that whole nickel and dime.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
For last week's results.
Speaker 4 (26:49):
We didn't have last week. We didn't do over unders last.
Speaker 5 (26:51):
Week against the spread. We did though, Yes we haven't gotten.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
Over correct And if you want to know those you.
Speaker 5 (26:57):
Went, you went perfect. You were perfect on the week.
Speaker 4 (26:59):
You are eight to zero are with your money lines
and Brady six and one, Jonas is five hundred three
and three.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Okay, Jonas, all right, the whole If I call money line,
I get extra credit for the assignment.
Speaker 5 (27:12):
It's ridiculous. It's not You're ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (27:15):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
If you miss the pick and you go money line,
you should get you should lose points more than just
one point.
Speaker 5 (27:21):
Good thing for us. We didn't lose any points. Then
say what about that?
Speaker 7 (27:24):
Do we?
Speaker 4 (27:24):
That's fine? That's fine. See this, this what's happening here.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
You guys are a team Ryan Clark picking on the
non player here. That's what's going on here. You're teaming up.
You're teaming up to side with your buddy Ryan Clark,
and I've got to sit here and go into battle
with Peter Schrager.
Speaker 5 (27:37):
Yeah, don't get that.
Speaker 3 (27:38):
That's what I gotta do. Guy, yourself, very strange man.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
All right, Lee, who's getting bashed this week? What's the line?
Speaker 5 (27:49):
Go ahead? No?
Speaker 4 (27:49):
Yeah, well over unders forty eight and a half of
the game under easy.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
I'm gonna take the over.
Speaker 5 (27:57):
I'm gonna take the over as well.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
All right, guys. We uh we talked about it in
the first hour. Micah Parsons sacks in the game. DraftKings
has it at point twenty five, which is typical for
a defender.
Speaker 5 (28:10):
I'm gonna take the over five.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
I'll take one over two five, Yeah, because they think
you might get a half a sec.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Yeah, I'm gonna take the over.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
And Jonas, you took the under. I took the over
all right over over over guys. Lambeau leaps in tonight's
Thursday night football game one and a half.
Speaker 8 (28:28):
Ooh, I took the over the game, so I've got
to take the over of this as well.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
I guess you said one and a half lambeau Leaps, correct.
I'm gonna take the under.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
So Lee, what was you You were telling me during
the break that there's only one a game?
Speaker 4 (28:44):
No, I just say, typically you'll they'll do one. I
don't know if they necessarily do the lambo. They don't
do the lambo leap every touchdown obviously, but uh, I
think they usually get one in and I don't know
if they usually get two. Why does this seem like
they do way more than one?
Speaker 5 (28:59):
Yeah? Why why don't you tell me that before I
spent my pick? Can I switch now? I mean I
go under?
Speaker 4 (29:06):
You could?
Speaker 5 (29:06):
Yeah, you can? I mean Jonahs hasn't even picked yet.
You're giving this insider information.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
I'm gonna go with the over because I think it's
Thursday night football and I think you know, it's prime time.
They're gonna be all gassed up and they're gonna, you know,
jump into that sea of cheese at least twice in
this game.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
So, Brady, what do you think it? Over or under?
Speaker 5 (29:28):
I'm gonna take the under, all right.
Speaker 4 (29:30):
Speaking of sea of cheese, I var pick. Yeah, I
Var took the under, So you're you're lone star. There
are jonas on the over and guys speaking of sea
of cheese. Number of cutaways to cheese curds in the
broadcast from the opening kickoff to the end at a half,
I'm sorry, over half.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
I'm gonna take the under.
Speaker 9 (29:52):
Now, if you had said cheese heads, that would be different,
but cheese curds.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
Cheese take the under.
Speaker 8 (29:57):
So do they have to specifically be showing cheese curds.
There could just be someone eating on their plates cheese curds.
Speaker 4 (30:03):
It would it would be somebody on their plate to
you know, if they cut away to a bar and
there's cheese curds on the table, I'll count that, all right.
Speaker 5 (30:10):
I'll take the over.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Yeah, because what else have they got out there?
Speaker 4 (30:15):
They have this new they have this new pretzel concoction
that's covered in cheese. But they they've been pushing it's decoction.
Speaker 5 (30:24):
It sounds like a pretzel covered in cheese.
Speaker 4 (30:26):
Well, I don't know, they've been pushing it. They've been pushing.
Speaker 7 (30:32):
Men.
Speaker 5 (30:33):
Yeah, a pretzel.
Speaker 4 (30:35):
Speaking of which, did you see the TCU corn dog?
Speaker 6 (30:38):
No?
Speaker 4 (30:39):
Oh, they have this new purple corn dog in section
one O nine. It's got all this it's like a
Korean uh Korean infusion. But it looks like it looks
like a big lull. It looks is it like the flavored?
It is the ube flavored? So it's purple yam, Yeah,
I'm out flavored?
Speaker 2 (30:53):
No thanks, Yes, discuss it looks like you remember when
I went on that soft pretzel spree when we were.
Speaker 4 (30:59):
Traveling, you had at least five pretzels.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
I don't know why. I just was in the mood
for soft. I don't think I've had one since it
was a lot of sodium. It's spent like two years.
I haven't had one since. I just I think I
think that killed it for me. Yeah, yeah, so I
guess you know is that it or we get on
on the page, did you take over?
Speaker 4 (31:16):
Under? On the on the wich the over over? And finally,
number of drinks I have during the game two and
a half.
Speaker 3 (31:26):
All right, I'm gonna take the over sticks sticks.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
Can we get some some parameters here? What do you
consider a drink?
Speaker 4 (31:36):
A beer? Or and or a shot? Ounces? Twelve ounces
is a beer? Two and a half? Mm hmm over
knocks locks?
Speaker 5 (31:54):
This is drinks for you tonight.
Speaker 4 (31:55):
Ly during the game.
Speaker 5 (31:56):
Yes, dude, don't lie to us. I'm gonna take the over.
Speaker 4 (32:03):
When's whens okay? And it all comes down to help
Michael Parsons performs. You know, like I said, if you
get the sack, why do you keep saying that?
Speaker 5 (32:14):
Like you're a free man. Drink if you want to
drink exact.
Speaker 4 (32:18):
But that's my goal.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
I want to go back to my land bow leap.
I want to change my pick.
Speaker 4 (32:23):
Okay, over why I want to go.
Speaker 9 (32:25):
Over because I'm I'm taking the over. I'm taking the
over on the points. So I'm gonna say on the
points it's at least going to be three touchdowns that
that they get. That's three opportunities to to do the
leap and you said it's out one and a half.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
Yeah, I'm gonna take the over. I'm gonna I'm.
Speaker 5 (32:45):
Gonna go back to the over too.
Speaker 3 (32:47):
Yeah, I'm gonna go back to the over.
Speaker 8 (32:49):
All right, because I was saying the same thing then
Lee talked me out of it. Yeah, that's state, which,
now that I think about it, I'm like the hunter
said to you, more than one, especially if it's a
high scoring game.
Speaker 3 (33:00):
It's prime time. It's prime time game. They're the only
game I.
Speaker 4 (33:04):
Think it's I think the prime I'm going over.
Speaker 5 (33:06):
But I'm going over.
Speaker 3 (33:08):
No.
Speaker 4 (33:08):
I stick by my analysis though that typically it's just
one Lambeau leap a game.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
So wait a second, so my handicap is now being
copied by everybody else. I should get extra points if
this is it hits the over since I was.
Speaker 5 (33:21):
The first, I don't even know what you're talking about.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
I pointed out prime time. I pointed out, you know's
inaccurate comedy.
Speaker 8 (33:28):
We're the ones that picked the over in the game,
which is what levarn I've been talking about. So we're
allowed to change, especially if Lee gives us information afterwards.
Speaker 9 (33:36):
Changing If I'm going to live with the over, which
I do think they'll hit the over.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
They're going to hit the over.
Speaker 9 (33:41):
Then it's prime time, Like it's it's feasible to think
that they'll do the lead more than one time more. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5 (33:49):
Yeah, I'm gonna take the over. What was the last one?
You said? Just drinks during the game. You keep saying
during the game.
Speaker 3 (33:55):
Yeah, during the game. That's it's like, so.
Speaker 5 (33:58):
What you're saying, a drink before the he doesn't count.
Speaker 9 (34:00):
It's not like he's excited to prove that he's not
going to drink more than one or two drinks.
Speaker 8 (34:05):
Well, the problem is that we could get blacked out
drunk before the game.
Speaker 4 (34:08):
Well not oh my old spot.
Speaker 9 (34:13):
Yeah, it's any drink, Lee, Like you can't say during
the game. It's any drink.
Speaker 4 (34:18):
You guys want to change it.
Speaker 5 (34:20):
Have you been dry this week or not?
Speaker 2 (34:22):
I have?
Speaker 3 (34:23):
Okay?
Speaker 5 (34:24):
Then what why you keep saying during the game.
Speaker 4 (34:26):
I've always said during the game whenever this prop comes up,
I've always said that.
Speaker 3 (34:29):
Just to be just because we're not doing doing that.
Speaker 4 (34:32):
I've always done that, Lee for five years.
Speaker 3 (34:35):
Lead.
Speaker 4 (34:36):
No, have you had a beer this week? No?
Speaker 5 (34:40):
Non alcoholic beer?
Speaker 4 (34:42):
Yes, plenty of non alcoholic Now with your neighbor does.
Speaker 9 (34:46):
Non alcoholic have any type of alcohol in it at
point five.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
But if you're going to count that then this week, No,
that's not weakly.
Speaker 5 (34:55):
You haven't drank with your neighbor.
Speaker 4 (34:56):
No, he didn't have one beer. He's on the non
drink thing too. He he asked me out for a
drink last night. I said, no, No, you told me
that you had.
Speaker 5 (35:04):
He's not drinking too. He asked out for a drink.
Speaker 4 (35:06):
You told me that you had a beer with your
neighbor earlier in the week. Yeah, I said, I said
on Sunday before before the game, we had We did
have a drink. We were celebrating.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
You are the biggest.
Speaker 5 (35:17):
You're a liar.
Speaker 4 (35:18):
What are we talking about?
Speaker 5 (35:19):
I've been talking, so it's not dry if you broke
the seal? Man, Like, why can't you just be honest?
Speaker 4 (35:27):
I am honest.
Speaker 3 (35:28):
You are the biggest.
Speaker 8 (35:29):
I can see why your relationship is the way it
is because you are habitual.
Speaker 4 (35:33):
I can see why it is too.
Speaker 9 (35:35):
He's beyond habitual. He's like far gone, bro, Like, that's scary.
How how bad.
Speaker 5 (35:41):
You have a perceptional reality?
Speaker 4 (35:44):
I apparently do you do?
Speaker 3 (35:48):
That's crazy? Man? What is going on that's crazy.
Speaker 4 (35:55):
All right, fine, final drink, okay, exactly.
Speaker 9 (36:00):
All right, listen, but it's all day. It's all day.
It's not game time. Because, like Q said, it's a
great point. Like if you're blacked out drunk before the
game and you said, well I didn't drink anything like
that's that's that's miss that's misleading.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
It's misleading.
Speaker 4 (36:15):
It's not misleading because I'm telling you what it is.
Speaker 3 (36:19):
It's misleading because you're gonna drink before that. What about?
Speaker 2 (36:23):
Hey, what what if you what if you have a
beer but you put those fake soda can labels.
Speaker 4 (36:30):
On them that I gave you for your birthday that
one year. I mean that would be like I'd be
like to who's ever around me? But I would tell you, guys, I.
Speaker 2 (36:37):
Gave lee these fake soda can labels that you can
put on your beers or like coozies to go over
your beer.
Speaker 4 (36:43):
So it looks like you're drinking, Yeah, drinking. Have you
used those lead Yeah, but not really to hide anything.
Just for fun. I haven't actually tried to hide. Why
not those off?
Speaker 2 (36:54):
So if you can, uh, if you can get away
with it tonight, the trick you know, I have let's
go to.
Speaker 9 (37:00):
Break and let's call lea therapist. Let drn break. Let's
let's let's hit up some one eight hundred.
Speaker 3 (37:07):
Lee.

I'm just saying, be honest about what we're talking about.
That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (37:13):

You guys aren't listening.
Speaker 5 (37:17):
Well, looks a lot, Kelly.
Speaker 9 (37:18):

Speaker 5 (38:44):
Joe all right?
Speaker 4 (38:45):
Dalapp, what do we got guys? Uh? The NBA is
gonna implement a new rule change for the next season
where unsuccessful end of period heaves will now be recorded
as a missed field goal attempt against the team, but
not the player. Those long heaves will no longer impact
their individual players shooting percentages more thieves then, but it
(39:07):
will count if they make it. They won't count against
their their their personal stats if they miss it, but
they will count if they make it. And this is
for the first.
Speaker 9 (39:17):
Three ego massaging is what it's called. That's called pacifying
the babies.
Speaker 5 (39:24):
How many times do is just even coming to play.
Speaker 3 (39:27):
A lot these days? Really like at least at least
four times?
Speaker 5 (39:33):
No, hold on, they're not always heaving the ball at
the end of the quarter.
Speaker 8 (39:38):
Maybe, but are they not doing that because they are
against their stats?
Speaker 4 (39:42):
They say, players, to tell you exactly why.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
All you need to know they're in the position they
are that that's the solution.
Speaker 3 (39:55):
We're not talking. We're talking.
Speaker 9 (39:57):
It doesn't count against your field goal presentage if you missed.
Speaker 2 (40:01):
The NFL has got the kickoff back, and the NBA
is worried about field goal percentages.

He is the one and only Albert Prier, senior NFL
reporter leave content strategist at the MMQB. Get him on
x at Alberprier a B. Good morning, I'd be Thursday
(01:46):
to you. Hey, we are good.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Week.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
One most surprising result for you, either good or bad,
was what.
Speaker 6 (02:01):
That's a good question?
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Uh?
Speaker 7 (02:03):
The most surprising, you know, I god, I don't know that.
I was really stunned by anything. I thought Caleb would
look better, I think, on Monday night than he did.
Speaker 6 (02:15):
I thought he held the ball.
Speaker 7 (02:16):
And I thought like it kind of still looked it
looked like he wasn't playing fast enough. I would say,
I don't know. I mean, like I know most people
will say the dolphins, but I thought the dolphins were
going to have some problems, you know, coming.
Speaker 6 (02:33):
Out of the gate.
Speaker 7 (02:36):
It stump me there, Jonas. I don't know, I don't
know that anything was really shocking.
Speaker 6 (02:40):
Any shocking guys.
Speaker 8 (02:42):
Yeah, the Colts. I didn't think the Colts were going
to actually drum the Dolphins. I thought the teams maybe
the Colts good.
Speaker 6 (02:49):
Yeah, I think the Colts are a good one.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Brady.
Speaker 7 (02:51):
I like, and I think like it's probably another example
of like what what what happens with quarterbacks in the NFL?
You know, And and I think kind of an evangelist
for these guys like you know, Sam Darnold and Baker
Mayfield and Gino Smith and how what would we give
up on guys who are highly drafted And the ultimate
example of it, probably from fifteen years ago is you know,
(03:12):
it was Alex Smith, you know, but I think, you know,
Shane Steiken did a good job of building an offense
for Daniel Jones, and you know, like really what they
were looking for and this was you know, sort of
like I think an interesting component to it. Like they
gave me the stat when I was there over the
summer where they were twenty ninth in the league in
(03:32):
total defense and thirtieth the giveaways last year and they
still won eight games, Right, So they bring in luey
in and Romo to fix the defense, and then you know,
like really like what Shane's thing was was like, we
just need to play a lot cleaner on offense, and
we just need somebody to come in and operate, to
operate the system. And they didn't feel like Anthony Richardson
(03:55):
was doing that at a high enough level, and they
really felt like it was holding the talent they had
on that side of the ball back. And I think
what you saw with Daniel Jones wasn't necessarily spectacular, but
I don't think that that's what they thought they needed.
Like they felt like what they needed with somebody's gonna
put you know, Michael Pittman and Josh Downs and Alex
(04:16):
Pearce and Tyler Warren and Jonathan Taylor in a position
to make plays. And that's exactly what Daniel Jones did, right.
Speaker 9 (04:23):
Carly Ers Gordon wearing headphones in that Colts game.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
That did that also add to your.
Speaker 7 (04:31):
Surprise of Yeah, yeah, I don't know how often the
owners on the headset I have first stories about.
Speaker 6 (04:40):
Have you guys heard about these like.
Speaker 7 (04:41):
Where like sometimes they're in the suite and they'll have
like a transmitter or whatever, or they'll have I don't
know if it's an actual headset all the time, like
maybe it's like just that an ear piece or something,
but they'll they be able to hear it. Like have
you you have heard of that, right?
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Yeah? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (04:56):
I mean so, like, I guess it's not that unusual that, like,
you know, the owner would want to listen in. I
don't know how much you're gleaning from it if you're
the owner, unless you're like, like I just I mean,
you guys know what it sounds like ono headsets.
Speaker 6 (05:11):
It's like if you don't.
Speaker 7 (05:13):
Really know what's going on, Like it's like everybody's talking
in code, you know what I mean. Like, so, but
I think we've seen that before too, So I don't know.
I I it is a little bit of a weird
look for your first game as principal owner, But you know,
I don't think it's that uncommon that owners will kind
of hover in those.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Sorts of ways.
Speaker 8 (05:34):
So, so part of the discussion we had it wasn't
so much about like whether or not she should be
doing this. It was more like, well, then you need
to be listening really throughout the week because otherwise you
don't really have the context to what's happening. And her
explanation of like well maybe someone tagged the wrong route
or and it's I'm like, okay, that's not how this works,
(05:55):
but you know it sounds bad saying Brady.
Speaker 7 (05:59):
Is like if you don't have that, like if you
weren't in practice every day during training camp, like how
would you be able to really make heads Because like
it's like anything else, right, Like if you've had a
running conversation with somebody on something for a month and
a half and like you're and somebody just jumps in
and listens to you having that running conversation with somebody
about anything, like they're going to lack all the context
(06:22):
that you've got on it, right, Like I'm not even
just not just football, just like in anything, right, No.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
Yeah, I mean you're right.
Speaker 8 (06:30):
And then but again it kind of just showed that
like even what she was saying, well, this problem, you know,
if it reveals itself, it's like, well that problem isn't
really a reality, is what she was trying to describe.
The gridded question becomes because when I heard this My
first thought was, Ooh, that's bad for Shane Steichen then,
because Chris Ballard's not on that like a general manager
(06:52):
is not being evaluated with every single game on a
headset like that, right, So it almost led me to
think that, like if there is, because it's technically new
ownership in a way, Yeah, it almost let me to believe, like,
what's Shane Steichen's in the crossairs of them, not Chris Ballard?
Yet Ballard's been there for longer, they haven't won a division.
(07:13):
I think you could make some you can you could
have some questions about how they built this roster.
Speaker 5 (07:19):
Did you get that sense though, that like.
Speaker 8 (07:21):
Maybe it's pointed at the coach for some reason, at
least based on those comments.
Speaker 6 (07:25):
I don't know.
Speaker 7 (07:26):
I mean, look, I think you know it's weird because,
like I know a lot of coaches, there's a little
paranoia with coaches sometimes over this. And I think I
hesitate to use that word because I think sometimes it's
justified paranoia. I mean, I think in a lot of
cases is justified paranoia. Where like if there is any
sort of divide, and I'm not saying there is one
(07:46):
between Chris and Shane, but like if there is any
sort of divide between the coach and the general manager,
what the coach will say to you will is, well,
who sits next to the to the owner during the games? Right,
And there's always this feeling like is the GM up
there picking apart, like, well, I gave him players, Well
look at how look at this guy's talent? Well look
(08:08):
at that catch that guy made. How come he doesn't
have seven catches?
Speaker 6 (08:11):
Look at that? Look at that? Look look at that?
Look at that pressure?
Speaker 7 (08:15):
The sense of end God, how come we can't get
him to the quarterback more?
Speaker 6 (08:18):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 7 (08:19):
Like, so that definitely can exist, and you know, in
a lot of cases, like the owner will feel a
little bit more I would say a little bit more
connected to the to the general manager, because the general
manager is a front office person. The general managers generally
more of a suit you know. So so yeah, I
(08:40):
mean I think those sorts of dynamics exist. And I
would say this like, if if you have a coach
who is in any way dealing with any sort of
pressure on his job, you have to be very careful
about the things that you do to exacerbate at that.
Speaker 6 (09:00):
And I would say, like if if.
Speaker 7 (09:03):
If there's any sort of feeling the shanstake and is
coaching for his job this year, I think you just
have to have like the self awareness to know, if
you're the owner, this is gonna have to be a
really bad look for him. This is not going to
make me look good, and this is ultimately gonna create.
Speaker 6 (09:20):
A problem for for for for.
Speaker 7 (09:23):
Him and his staff and potentially something that could seep
into the locker room.
Speaker 6 (09:27):
So I'm with you on that.
Speaker 7 (09:28):
Like that, you have to be aware of the of
the of the spot that you're in and maybe that's
just part of the process and in learning how to
do the job becoming the principal owner.
Speaker 6 (09:38):
If you're probably a.
Speaker 9 (09:39):
Sagor of court abe uh Brian day Ball he made
a decision that's a I don't know if it's considered
a gutsy decision or the most sensible of decisions, but
he named Russell Wilson the starter going into Week two
of the NFL season. What's your take on that and
(10:03):
how much runway and your estimation does Dave Ball have.
Speaker 7 (10:08):
So I think I think a lot of this is
going to relate back to the offensive line they didn't
have Andrew Thomas in week one. We'll see, you know,
when they get him back.
Speaker 6 (10:18):
That's a really big deal.
Speaker 7 (10:19):
Guys like I like, I like, I.
Speaker 6 (10:22):
Feel like this is something.
Speaker 7 (10:24):
This is a piece of this puzzle that people have
really overlooked. They spent a lot of resources and rebuilding
their offensive line last year.
Speaker 6 (10:32):
And they felt like, all right, like the.
Speaker 7 (10:34):
First five or six weeks of the season, they actually
played pretty well, and then Andrew Thomas, their left tackle,
goes down, and then one thing led to another and
the whole thing imploded and it became a big mess again.
And so like this year, they've gone back and they've
doubled down on the same group. So it's you know,
(10:55):
it's it's Thomas and Illumina at the tackles. It span
Rodin and and run In at the guards, and it's
and it's it's it's Schmid's at center.
Speaker 6 (11:05):
Right, So you've got the same group coming back.
Speaker 7 (11:08):
You've made that conscious decision that you know, we did
get it right in twenty four, but the Thomas injury
undermined everything.
Speaker 6 (11:14):
And so like, you know, you've made that bet on
your offensive line.
Speaker 7 (11:18):
When Thomas gets back in there, you'd hope things stabilize
and I think if things stabilized, then that's when you've
got the Lee way to go to Jackson Dart.
Speaker 6 (11:27):
They think the world of them.
Speaker 7 (11:28):
I said this over the summer, like I like, I like,
I really feel like, if anything, the least got shorter
on Russell Wilson as Jackson Dart really started to check
check every box with the coaches, and they have already
displayed to all of us in a public way by
making him the second quarterback they would feel comfortable putting
him in a game right here, right now. So you know,
(11:50):
I think, you know, part of this is just kind
of making sure that you're you're looking out for the
development of the young quarterback and and and trying to
put them in a good situation. And you know, I
think as far as that goes, it's going to be
like when that offensive line is stabilized, then you feel
comfortable putting him in there. And then I think Russell
Wilson's unnoticed. But he's got to play a lot better
(12:11):
than he did last week, that's for sure, because a
lot of the problems the Steelers people had with the
way he played last year were certainly there.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
On Sunday against the Commanders, Albert Breer, senior NFL reporter,
lead content strategist at the MMQB, joining us here on
Fox Sports Radio Get him on X at Albert Breer. So,
you'd mentioned the Dolphins performance that you weren't totally surprised
by it because you didn't have high expectations for him.
But it just feels like the conversations are getting louder
(12:40):
and louder surrounding Mike McDaniel. What are you hearing from
people as to how thin the ices that he's currently
operating on.
Speaker 6 (12:51):
Well, so I think i'd said there are a couple
of things to know. First of all, he was extended
last year, so you would be.
Speaker 7 (12:55):
The the This is never a non factor that the
owner would be eating some money and all of that.
Speaker 6 (13:00):
That's that's not a nonfactor.
Speaker 7 (13:03):
And I think Mike's a I think Mike's a really good.
Speaker 6 (13:05):
Coach, you know.
Speaker 7 (13:06):
I like, I think he from a tactical standpoints, one
of the best in the NFL, you know, But like
there were these questions with him, like before he became
a head coach, what happens when the bleep it's the
fan and then you hear stuff, you know, through the
off season is that place, is that Is that building
healthy right now? Is the locker room healthy right now?
Speaker 6 (13:29):
They go through a bit.
Speaker 7 (13:30):
Of a rebuild and trading Jalen Ramsey Toront Armstead retires.
You know, I think they've aged out and and and
in certain positions. And he's got two problems now, Like
I think the first problem is that a lot of
the narrative flows into the fact that the effort didn't
look good, that did not look like a team that
(13:51):
had a lot of energy playing against the Colts on Sundays,
So you want to call him narratives whatever they are
over the last few months, they sort of match what
happened in the opener. So that's problem number one. Problem
number two is that if you are going through this
sort of reset where you're moving off of this team,
this group that you went all in on while two
(14:12):
was on his rookie contract, this would be the natural
time to start asking big picture questions.
Speaker 6 (14:18):
Is this the guy that.
Speaker 7 (14:18):
We want to lead our rebuild if we are going
to rebuild, is this the.
Speaker 6 (14:22):
Person that we want there?
Speaker 7 (14:24):
And a kind of a sidebar to that is the
fact that you've got a guy in your defensive coordinator,
Anthony Weaver, who some people view as a as a
future head coach, who's interviewed head coaching job. So you
have somebody on your staff that you might want to
take a look at. So like, I'm not declaring it's
over after one week. They've got plenty of time to
(14:46):
come off the mat.
Speaker 6 (14:47):
Week one's weird.
Speaker 7 (14:48):
You know, they could come out and rip off three
straight wins and this conversation looks stupid. But you know,
I'd say those two things are really sort of working
against Mike right now. You know, I'd say number one
again like kind of how the narrative matched the effort
on Sunday. And then number two, like the fact that
(15:09):
they're at this, you know, this natural point of resetting
some things with the ross or where you do ask
those big picture questions on whether or not you want
the current leadership leaving the rebuild.
Speaker 8 (15:22):
We were just having this conversation about the San Francisco
forty nine ers kind of where that team's at.
Speaker 5 (15:27):
You know, mccaffree is still doing with the calf injury,
pretty carry down multiple weeks.
Speaker 8 (15:31):
Kittles on IR, I mean, it just it feels like
this is a team that hit their ceiling and you know,
might be a playoff team because the NFC is obviously
weaker than the AFC, but is probably closer to a
rebuild or treading in that direction more so than a
team that's that's building.
Speaker 5 (15:49):
Do you disagree with that? Like where where would you say?
Speaker 8 (15:51):
The San Francisco forty nine ers are out at this point?
Speaker 7 (15:54):
So like they actually have like kind of started to rebuild, Brad.
They played a lot of reviews on defense on Sunday,
and they I think are starting to lean into some
younger players on offense as well. And you know, like
that that's Ricky Piersoll, you know, like that's you know,
(16:14):
I think Juwan Jennings when he gets healthy is another
piece of that. Like you know, I you's not old
and Iuka is Ayuka is not out there right now,
you know, so they are starting to lean on some
some younger players.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
You know.
Speaker 7 (16:28):
It's interesting the conversation I had with Kyle and John
Lynch about this over the summer, a lot of it
centered on like how the guys that they let go
this year, the difference is that those are guys like
those aren't guys that they.
Speaker 6 (16:41):
They didn't want to keep.
Speaker 7 (16:43):
You know what I mean, like they let go of
some guys they really like, Like they like Sufunda, they
like green Law, they like Jordan Mason, you know, who
wound up with the Vikings. So they let go of
guys that they really thought, like, you know, these guys
still have something left. We still like these guys, you know,
And it was because the of going all in over
the last few years. Now here's the good news. The
(17:05):
good news is they still have like a crew of
like Hall of Fame, Hall of Fame level players, right,
so Nick Bosa, Fred Warner, George Kittle, Christian McCaffrey. And
then you know, if you combine that with all right,
like we're playing a lot of rookies who should be
better in December than they are in September, you can
(17:25):
see where maybe this all does come together with a
weaker schedule, you know what I mean, Like maybe this
is an eleven or twelve win team that's supremely well coached.
Here's the problem with that, though, is they're already really
banged up. And is that a coincidence, right, or is
that just happen what happens with an older team because
Kittle's banged up, you know, like McCaffrey's banged up, you know, like,
(17:50):
is this just hey, it's an older team, like this.
Speaker 6 (17:53):
Is what happens?
Speaker 7 (17:54):
You know.
Speaker 6 (17:54):
Well, we'll have to see.
Speaker 7 (17:56):
But if they can keep those older guys on the field,
Warner and both and Kitt'll get back out there, and
Purty gets back out there, and mccaflee can stay healthy.
If they can keep those guys healthy and going, then
I still think they have a shot just because of
the strength of the program.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
All right, so moment of truth here, All right, enough
with all the shenanigans.
Speaker 4 (18:18):
Albert Brier, do you believe.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
That this Saturday, when it's all said and done, that
the Ohio State Buck guys will have beaten the Ohio
Bobcats by more than thirty and a half points.
Speaker 4 (18:35):
At the shoot?
Speaker 7 (18:37):
Well, oh, You've got a special place in my heart
for the Halloweens. I've spent there back in the day,
and they're a pretty good team, right, like I did
beat West Virginia.
Speaker 6 (18:48):
Am I right about that?
Speaker 3 (18:49):
Right?
Speaker 4 (18:50):
I believe?
Speaker 3 (18:51):
So?
Speaker 4 (18:51):
Yeah, they're one in one.
Speaker 7 (18:54):
Yeah, I mean you know what, like you know what,
I'll throw you a bone. Oh maybe, oh you covers thirty.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Five close loss at Rutgers for Ohio in Week one,
and then they followed that up with a win against
West Virginia.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
As you pointed out, we did they they did?
Speaker 7 (19:09):
They not win the MAC last year? Is that right?
Speaker 4 (19:12):
I don't recall.
Speaker 6 (19:14):
I don't know.
Speaker 7 (19:14):
Yeah, you have been you have been, uh, you have
been thrilled down on the on the on the MAC.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Well, I'm just I'm surprised that you gave as much
love as you did to the opponent, because normally it's
a very one sided, uh synopsis of a game involving
Ohio State, And here you are throwing love and and
those Halloween parties, those Halloween parties last year? Did they
they won the MAC last year?
Speaker 4 (19:38):
Abe?
Speaker 2 (19:38):
How good were those Halloween parties that that was the
lead as opposed to your Buckeyes.
Speaker 6 (19:43):
And your Brady. You can talk Brady.
Speaker 7 (19:45):
You I mean, you're in Ohio and you've ever been
to Halloween that Athens?
Speaker 2 (19:50):
I think I think we're having Uh we got some
technical difficulties with Brady at this point.
Speaker 6 (19:55):
Oh, that's unfortunate.
Speaker 7 (19:56):
No, Halloween and Athens is one of I would say
that they hit in the Marria and jim As Halloween
in Athens Ohio, it is.
Speaker 6 (20:04):
It is something else for sure.
Speaker 7 (20:06):
So yeah, I spent I spent a couple of halloweens
in Athens, and that's got a special place in my heart,
A fantastic, fantastic place Joe burrows hometown too.
Speaker 4 (20:16):
Yeah, I can imagine. I can imagine that was fun.
Speaker 3 (20:20):
Things took place there, huh out.
Speaker 7 (20:22):
Abts lots of lots of things that can't be discussed
on this Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
Ohio, Yay, that's why they call it Athen.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
Them bashing bobcats. All right, ab thanks man, we appreciate it.

the NFL. It's the kickoff of Week two in the

Speaker 2 (23:58):
I don't think I actually don't think Al Michael has
complained about any of the matchups in a little while.
I think people have gotten on him enough to where
you know, he just says, Hey, whatever, man is what
it is. I'm getting paid. I'm still great, and I'll
just call these games. But Commander's Packers, as Brady pointed
out earlier, does feel like these are two playoff teams.
Maybe they're going to meet up again, and so they'll
(24:19):
be kicking off in Green Bay, Wisconsin later on tonight.
And the big discussion on this show is whether or
not Lee can keep it together, because if there's one
thing Lee loves, it's watching the game and having a
couple of drinks followed by a couple dozen more.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
And so whether or not he's going to be able
to hold.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Off and not lick the lid, as they say later
on tonight, is really the big discussion here.
Speaker 4 (24:47):
I mean, are you confident going into this, Lee or no?
Speaker 5 (24:51):
Confident?
Speaker 4 (24:53):
No, but I'm dedicated, determined.
Speaker 8 (24:57):
That's interesting. That's a good way of putting it. Lee
we're rooting for you all though. I think you're definitely
gonna have a few adult beverages.
Speaker 4 (25:03):
Well, it depends how Michah performs tonight.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
Why is it just Micah?
Speaker 5 (25:07):
No, it doesn't. You didn't drink either way, Dude.
Speaker 4 (25:10):
For every sack you get, I get a beer a shot.
So I thought I thought of this one earlier. All right,
what about Evan Williams? What about every for every tackle.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Evan Williams makes? Yeah, you have a little mini bottle
of Evan Williams.
Speaker 4 (25:23):
Yeah, that's that's a good call. Yeah, how did how
do he did he have last week? I know we
got the intersection.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
I think he had two. So you had as many
of those in the first quarter. Yeah, so that's good.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
Well, I think that that that'll Uh. I think I
took care of that with the pregame. So we're all
good for week one. We're flush.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
Who are you planning on watching the game with? That
also would impact I don't know.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
I don't know yet. I'd like to probably just watch it.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
Home so you're at home.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
Yeah, he did have three tackles last week, by the way, Okay, I.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Mean three mini bottles will get you get a nice
little head.
Speaker 4 (25:56):
Star, wouldn't it? Oh yeah, yeah, all right.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
So we will see whether or not any of that
stuff entered into the equation when Lee decided to come
up with these lines for another edition of something we
do on the show called this.
Speaker 10 (26:14):
Time to put your money where your mouth is.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
I have been losing, you know, you aligning low life
gamely the.
Speaker 5 (26:20):
Genuine it's over under.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
You guys are gonna get that work again in a
pick segment on this show.
Speaker 4 (26:26):
That's all I do is win? All right, Lee, what
do we got? So the Packers are three and a
half point favorites versus the Commanders, but the over under
on the game is forty eight and a half on draft.
Speaker 8 (26:36):
Picks under first off, First off, Joonas, you're a last
in are against the spread picks.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
Now, because you guys are doing that whole nickel and dime.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
For last week's results.
Speaker 4 (26:49):
We didn't have last week. We didn't do over unders last.
Speaker 5 (26:51):
Week against the spread. We did though, Yes we haven't gotten.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
Over correct And if you want to know those you.
Speaker 5 (26:57):
Went, you went perfect. You were perfect on the week.
Speaker 4 (26:59):
You are eight to zero are with your money lines
and Brady six and one, Jonas is five hundred three
and three.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Okay, Jonas, all right, the whole If I call money line,
I get extra credit for the assignment.
Speaker 5 (27:12):
It's ridiculous. It's not You're ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (27:15):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
If you miss the pick and you go money line,
you should get you should lose points more than just
one point.
Speaker 5 (27:21):
Good thing for us. We didn't lose any points. Then
say what about that?
Speaker 7 (27:24):
Do we?
Speaker 4 (27:24):
That's fine? That's fine. See this, this what's happening here.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
You guys are a team Ryan Clark picking on the
non player here. That's what's going on here. You're teaming up.
You're teaming up to side with your buddy Ryan Clark,
and I've got to sit here and go into battle
with Peter Schrager.
Speaker 5 (27:37):
Yeah, don't get that.
Speaker 3 (27:38):
That's what I gotta do. Guy, yourself, very strange man.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
All right, Lee, who's getting bashed this week? What's the line?
Speaker 5 (27:49):
Go ahead? No?
Speaker 4 (27:49):
Yeah, well over unders forty eight and a half of
the game under easy.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
I'm gonna take the over.
Speaker 5 (27:57):
I'm gonna take the over as well.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
All right, guys. We uh we talked about it in
the first hour. Micah Parsons sacks in the game. DraftKings
has it at point twenty five, which is typical for
a defender.
Speaker 5 (28:10):
I'm gonna take the over five.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
I'll take one over two five, Yeah, because they think
you might get a half a sec.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Yeah, I'm gonna take the over.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
And Jonas, you took the under. I took the over
all right over over over guys. Lambeau leaps in tonight's
Thursday night football game one and a half.
Speaker 8 (28:28):
Ooh, I took the over the game, so I've got
to take the over of this as well.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
I guess you said one and a half lambeau Leaps, correct.
I'm gonna take the under.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
So Lee, what was you You were telling me during
the break that there's only one a game?
Speaker 4 (28:44):
No, I just say, typically you'll they'll do one. I
don't know if they necessarily do the lambo. They don't
do the lambo leap every touchdown obviously, but uh, I
think they usually get one in and I don't know
if they usually get two. Why does this seem like
they do way more than one?
Speaker 5 (28:59):
Yeah? Why why don't you tell me that before I
spent my pick? Can I switch now? I mean I
go under?
Speaker 4 (29:06):
You could?
Speaker 5 (29:06):
Yeah, you can? I mean Jonahs hasn't even picked yet.
You're giving this insider information.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
I'm gonna go with the over because I think it's
Thursday night football and I think you know, it's prime time.
They're gonna be all gassed up and they're gonna, you know,
jump into that sea of cheese at least twice in
this game.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
So, Brady, what do you think it? Over or under?
Speaker 5 (29:28):
I'm gonna take the under, all right.
Speaker 4 (29:30):
Speaking of sea of cheese, I var pick. Yeah, I
Var took the under, So you're you're lone star. There
are jonas on the over and guys speaking of sea
of cheese. Number of cutaways to cheese curds in the
broadcast from the opening kickoff to the end at a half,
I'm sorry, over half.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
I'm gonna take the under.
Speaker 9 (29:52):
Now, if you had said cheese heads, that would be different,
but cheese curds.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
Cheese take the under.
Speaker 8 (29:57):
So do they have to specifically be showing cheese curds.
There could just be someone eating on their plates cheese curds.
Speaker 4 (30:03):
It would it would be somebody on their plate to
you know, if they cut away to a bar and
there's cheese curds on the table, I'll count that, all right.
Speaker 5 (30:10):
I'll take the over.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Yeah, because what else have they got out there?
Speaker 4 (30:15):
They have this new they have this new pretzel concoction
that's covered in cheese. But they they've been pushing it's decoction.
Speaker 5 (30:24):
It sounds like a pretzel covered in cheese.
Speaker 4 (30:26):
Well, I don't know, they've been pushing it. They've been pushing.
Speaker 7 (30:32):
Men.
Speaker 5 (30:33):
Yeah, a pretzel.
Speaker 4 (30:35):
Speaking of which, did you see the TCU corn dog?
Speaker 6 (30:38):
No?
Speaker 4 (30:39):
Oh, they have this new purple corn dog in section
one O nine. It's got all this it's like a
Korean uh Korean infusion. But it looks like it looks
like a big lull. It looks is it like the flavored?
It is the ube flavored? So it's purple yam, Yeah,
I'm out flavored?
Speaker 2 (30:53):
No thanks, Yes, discuss it looks like you remember when
I went on that soft pretzel spree when we were.
Speaker 4 (30:59):
Traveling, you had at least five pretzels.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
I don't know why. I just was in the mood
for soft. I don't think I've had one since it
was a lot of sodium. It's spent like two years.
I haven't had one since. I just I think I
think that killed it for me. Yeah, yeah, so I
guess you know is that it or we get on
on the page, did you take over?
Speaker 4 (31:16):
Under? On the on the wich the over over? And finally,
number of drinks I have during the game two and
a half.
Speaker 3 (31:26):
All right, I'm gonna take the over sticks sticks.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
Can we get some some parameters here? What do you
consider a drink?
Speaker 4 (31:36):
A beer? Or and or a shot? Ounces? Twelve ounces
is a beer? Two and a half? Mm hmm over
knocks locks?
Speaker 5 (31:54):
This is drinks for you tonight.
Speaker 4 (31:55):
Ly during the game.
Speaker 5 (31:56):
Yes, dude, don't lie to us. I'm gonna take the over.
Speaker 4 (32:03):
When's whens okay? And it all comes down to help
Michael Parsons performs. You know, like I said, if you
get the sack, why do you keep saying that?
Speaker 5 (32:14):
Like you're a free man. Drink if you want to
drink exact.
Speaker 4 (32:18):
But that's my goal.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
I want to go back to my land bow leap.
I want to change my pick.
Speaker 4 (32:23):
Okay, over why I want to go.
Speaker 9 (32:25):
Over because I'm I'm taking the over. I'm taking the
over on the points. So I'm gonna say on the
points it's at least going to be three touchdowns that
that they get. That's three opportunities to to do the
leap and you said it's out one and a half.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
Yeah, I'm gonna take the over. I'm gonna I'm.
Speaker 5 (32:45):
Gonna go back to the over too.
Speaker 3 (32:47):
Yeah, I'm gonna go back to the over.
Speaker 8 (32:49):
All right, because I was saying the same thing then
Lee talked me out of it. Yeah, that's state, which,
now that I think about it, I'm like the hunter
said to you, more than one, especially if it's a
high scoring game.
Speaker 3 (33:00):
It's prime time. It's prime time game. They're the only
game I.
Speaker 4 (33:04):
Think it's I think the prime I'm going over.
Speaker 5 (33:06):
But I'm going over.
Speaker 3 (33:08):
No.
Speaker 4 (33:08):
I stick by my analysis though that typically it's just
one Lambeau leap a game.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
So wait a second, so my handicap is now being
copied by everybody else. I should get extra points if
this is it hits the over since I was.
Speaker 5 (33:21):
The first, I don't even know what you're talking about.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
I pointed out prime time. I pointed out, you know's
inaccurate comedy.
Speaker 8 (33:28):
We're the ones that picked the over in the game,
which is what levarn I've been talking about. So we're
allowed to change, especially if Lee gives us information afterwards.
Speaker 9 (33:36):
Changing If I'm going to live with the over, which
I do think they'll hit the over.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
They're going to hit the over.
Speaker 9 (33:41):
Then it's prime time, Like it's it's feasible to think
that they'll do the lead more than one time more. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5 (33:49):
Yeah, I'm gonna take the over. What was the last one?
You said? Just drinks during the game. You keep saying
during the game.
Speaker 3 (33:55):
Yeah, during the game. That's it's like, so.
Speaker 5 (33:58):
What you're saying, a drink before the he doesn't count.
Speaker 9 (34:00):
It's not like he's excited to prove that he's not
going to drink more than one or two drinks.
Speaker 8 (34:05):
Well, the problem is that we could get blacked out
drunk before the game.
Speaker 4 (34:08):
Well not oh my old spot.
Speaker 9 (34:13):
Yeah, it's any drink, Lee, Like you can't say during
the game. It's any drink.
Speaker 4 (34:18):
You guys want to change it.
Speaker 5 (34:20):
Have you been dry this week or not?
Speaker 2 (34:22):
I have?
Speaker 3 (34:23):
Okay?
Speaker 5 (34:24):
Then what why you keep saying during the game.
Speaker 4 (34:26):
I've always said during the game whenever this prop comes up,
I've always said that.
Speaker 3 (34:29):
Just to be just because we're not doing doing that.
Speaker 4 (34:32):
I've always done that, Lee for five years.
Speaker 3 (34:35):
Lead.
Speaker 4 (34:36):
No, have you had a beer this week? No?
Speaker 5 (34:40):
Non alcoholic beer?
Speaker 4 (34:42):
Yes, plenty of non alcoholic Now with your neighbor does.
Speaker 9 (34:46):
Non alcoholic have any type of alcohol in it at
point five.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
But if you're going to count that then this week, No,
that's not weakly.
Speaker 5 (34:55):
You haven't drank with your neighbor.
Speaker 4 (34:56):
No, he didn't have one beer. He's on the non
drink thing too. He he asked me out for a
drink last night. I said, no, No, you told me
that you had.
Speaker 5 (35:04):
He's not drinking too. He asked out for a drink.
Speaker 4 (35:06):
You told me that you had a beer with your
neighbor earlier in the week. Yeah, I said, I said
on Sunday before before the game, we had We did
have a drink. We were celebrating.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
You are the biggest.
Speaker 5 (35:17):
You're a liar.
Speaker 4 (35:18):
What are we talking about?
Speaker 5 (35:19):
I've been talking, so it's not dry if you broke
the seal? Man, Like, why can't you just be honest?
Speaker 4 (35:27):
I am honest.
Speaker 3 (35:28):
You are the biggest.
Speaker 8 (35:29):
I can see why your relationship is the way it
is because you are habitual.
Speaker 4 (35:33):
I can see why it is too.
Speaker 9 (35:35):
He's beyond habitual. He's like far gone, bro, Like, that's scary.
How how bad.
Speaker 5 (35:41):
You have a perceptional reality?
Speaker 4 (35:44):
I apparently do you do?
Speaker 3 (35:48):
That's crazy? Man? What is going on that's crazy.
Speaker 4 (35:55):
All right, fine, final drink, okay, exactly.
Speaker 9 (36:00):
All right, listen, but it's all day. It's all day.
It's not game time. Because, like Q said, it's a
great point. Like if you're blacked out drunk before the
game and you said, well I didn't drink anything like
that's that's that's miss that's misleading.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
It's misleading.
Speaker 4 (36:15):
It's not misleading because I'm telling you what it is.
Speaker 3 (36:19):
It's misleading because you're gonna drink before that. What about?
Speaker 2 (36:23):
Hey, what what if you what if you have a
beer but you put those fake soda can labels.
Speaker 4 (36:30):
On them that I gave you for your birthday that
one year. I mean that would be like I'd be
like to who's ever around me? But I would tell you, guys, I.
Speaker 2 (36:37):
Gave lee these fake soda can labels that you can
put on your beers or like coozies to go over
your beer.
Speaker 4 (36:43):
So it looks like you're drinking, Yeah, drinking. Have you
used those lead Yeah, but not really to hide anything.
Just for fun. I haven't actually tried to hide. Why
not those off?
Speaker 2 (36:54):
So if you can, uh, if you can get away
with it tonight, the trick you know, I have let's
go to.
Speaker 9 (37:00):
Break and let's call lea therapist. Let drn break. Let's
let's let's hit up some one eight hundred.
Speaker 3 (37:07):
Lee.

There, I meet us, man. I'm not trying to judge you.
I'm just saying, be honest about what we're talking about.
That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (37:13):
I have been one hundred percent honest this entire time.
You guys aren't listening.
Speaker 5 (37:17):
Well, looks a lot, Kelly.
Speaker 9 (37:18):
I think we It's already a lot. That's a lot.

Speaker 4 (38:40):
Time to find out what's left?
Speaker 3 (38:43):
It's Lee's left?
Speaker 5 (38:44):
Joe all right?
Speaker 4 (38:45):
Dalapp, what do we got guys? Uh? The NBA is
gonna implement a new rule change for the next season
where unsuccessful end of period heaves will now be recorded
as a missed field goal attempt against the team, but
not the player. Those long heaves will no longer impact
their individual players shooting percentages more thieves then, but it
(39:07):
will count if they make it. They won't count against
their their their personal stats if they miss it, but
they will count if they make it. And this is
for the first.
Speaker 9 (39:17):
Three ego massaging is what it's called. That's called pacifying
the babies.
Speaker 5 (39:24):
How many times do is just even coming to play.
Speaker 3 (39:27):
A lot these days? Really like at least at least
four times?
Speaker 5 (39:33):
No, hold on, they're not always heaving the ball at
the end of the quarter.
Speaker 8 (39:38):
Maybe, but are they not doing that because they are
against their stats?
Speaker 4 (39:42):
They say, players, to tell you exactly why.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
All you need to know they're in the position they
are that that's the solution.
Speaker 3 (39:55):
We're not talking. We're talking.
Speaker 9 (39:57):
It doesn't count against your field goal presentage if you missed.
Speaker 2 (40:01):
The NFL has got the kickoff back, and the NBA
is worried about field goal percentages.
