little bit of breaking news out of the NFL.

Speaker 3 (01:56):
Breaking news from Fox Sports.

Speaker 4 (01:59):
Just now. It's just a short time ago. The first
Sunday night football game of the year will be the
Dallas Cowboys at the New York Giants. So there we go.
Well we're off and running. Love what a stunner the
Cowboys featured in Primetime Week one Giant. Yeah, so there

(02:24):
we go. Now, we don't know whether or I don't know.
Beckham Junior is going to be with the Giants because
that story is still lingering. But the Jackson Dart and
John Harbier with the New York Giants starts against the
Dallas Cowboys on Sunday Night Football. And listen, we're gonna
get a few of these leagues throughout the course of
the week, as the full schedule is going to be
released on Thursday. The International Games are going to come

(02:47):
out on Wednesday. But at least we've got, you know,
a little something to look ahead to when it comes
to Cowboys Giants. Probably a betting line on that as
we speak that we can find right now. So there's that.
There we go. That is your breaking news. Was that
worthy of breaking news do you think or now?

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Yeah? Yeah, I know it was announced. We have to
we have to discuss that, right, that's fair. Yeah, it
works for me.

Speaker 5 (03:08):
It's a good game. It's a big that's a good
game to watch.

Speaker 6 (03:12):
I won't make jeez, Jerry got expectations for excited. I
think I think we could say, h I expectations for
the Dallas Cowboys, and uh, I don't know that we
know what to know or to think about, you know,
the New York Giants as of right now. So I

(03:33):
think that's an intriguing That's one of those intriguing matchups.
It could be intriguing just because of you know, it's
the Giants and the Cowboys, and it's it's it's a
historic you know, it's a it's a foundational you know, opponent.
But you know, they could end up being really good

(03:53):
both teams, or one of them could end up being bad.
One could end up being So I just think the
relevance of not knowing what what's next for either one
of the teams makes it a super intriguing game to
watch as a first game. Yeah yeah, I mean there's
questions that you said on both sides, right yeah, yeah,
I haven't messed it up yet.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
The Dallas defense has to improve. It can't be much
worse than what it was last year. So that's kind
of the first thing. And I think you look at
the Giants and just a lot of questions around, you know,
what that offense is going to look like under John Harbaugh.
Now they're head coach, you know, Jackson Dart, Cam Scattaboo,
some of the other pieces that you know, you know,

(04:34):
should flashes of what they're capable of. But also at
times too, you know, struggled or had injuries that played
a role in that. So it's just there's a lot
of questions I think about, you know, both teams, what
they could be and so it should be a great matchup,
a lot of hype surrounding it, and I don't know,
I mean, they.

Speaker 2 (04:50):
Look the NFC East.

Speaker 1 (04:52):
We used to say it was kind of a toss up,
you know, it's hard to see a repeat, you know, winner,
but the Eagles have kind of had a stranglehold on
it in recent years.

Speaker 2 (04:59):
And no, I would say they're still the favorite.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
And then I'd say Washington in my opinion, if Jane
Daniels is healthy, is that next team that I think,
with some of the additions they made too, should be
able to compete. So but it should be a tight division.
I mean, all these teams I think are too far off.
And you know Dak's still putting up good numbers and
plan at a high level. So it will be a
good matchup, that's for sure.

Speaker 6 (05:22):
Yeah, it's definitely now We're never in Dallas. If you
ask me now or never forever, hold your piece. It's
not it's not going to happen like they got to
take a definitive step forward this year. And I think that,
and I say it's not going to happen, meaning it's
not going to happen.

Speaker 5 (05:40):
With Dak Prescott as your as your quarterback.

Speaker 4 (05:42):
Geez.

Speaker 5 (05:44):
Yeah, that's what I mean. That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (05:45):
I'm saying single again, come on, I'm.

Speaker 6 (05:49):
Saying time is running out, it's winding down on if
you're gonna be the guy that transitions this team and
your career to the next level. It's like it's it
almost feels like it's a now or never do in
my estimation.

Speaker 4 (06:03):
Yeah, I would as far as the Giants go, Jackson
Dart just slide, man, Like just you know, there's of
that we know of at least a couple of different
concussions he suffered last year. We know what happened with
camp Skataboo. I mean, he's I just I wonder if

(06:23):
they'll be able to or Jackson Dart rather will be
able to just adjust to that aspect of it, because
there were glimpses, but you just couldn't see it consistently
because he wasn't healthy and he was getting knocked out
of games, and so I just wonder, can you get
that out of him and have him understand that, Listen,

(06:45):
you're not helping us if you're on the sideline. Try
and stay in these games a little bit longer because
you know there's weapons there. You're getting pieces back, neighbors
is going to be back. I just I look at
the Giants, I go, I'm optimistic, but I don't know
whether or not that guy's going to be able to
stay healthy. It's the problem. So and we see what's
happened to to another quarterbacks that have gone through.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
That, and if he can't stay healthy, you know, depending
on where the Giants find themselves, you'd have to think
John Hardball too, is gonna want to say maybe we
look in next year's draft for you know, at quarterback,
we feel like can't stay healthy. But I know there's
a lot of people who are high on Jackson Dart
and his capabilities. But again, if he can't stay healthy,

(07:24):
can't help the team. And you know, we saw a
super Bowl winning quarterback and Joe Flacco you know, eventually
be replaced by Lamar Jackson, and they didn't really have
much of an issue.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
Trying to move on from Joe in that way.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
So not really comparing the two in that regard, just
saying it's a new head coach who, in my opinion,
he probably has the final say in all this, and
depending on how things go after two years, if he
can't fix some of the issues of you know, putting
himself in harm's way and can't stay healthy on the field,
and you have the opportunity to take one of those
guys in next year's draft, it might be hard not

(07:57):
to pull the trigger and you know, go into it
with a guy that is your guy, if you're John Harbaugh.

Speaker 6 (08:05):
I think he has the potential to be the guy
with those with those injury with those injury question marks.

Speaker 5 (08:18):
I just say this. I think he brings an excitement level.
But I don't know.

Speaker 6 (08:23):
I don't know that it's a foregone conclusion, even without
you know, injury being a part of it, that he
can be the guy for this team. The potential is
there for it, But I don't know that I've seen
enough where I'd be confident saying that it's a foregone
conclusion if he doesn't stay healthy then or if he

(08:46):
does stay healthy, that this is, you know, a really
good team. I'm not I'm not certain yet. I know,
I know he has the potential. We've seen the potential,
we've seen it play out from time to time. But
I don't know that anyone should be, you know, kind
of sold on the idea that health equals him being.

Speaker 5 (09:06):
The bringing the New York.

Speaker 6 (09:08):
Giants up to a level of where they're going after
the NFC East. I don't I don't know that they
can be that good right now. I'd have to see.

Speaker 1 (09:16):
That they're young, They've got a lot to prove, you know,
they're just a bunch of pups. Speaking of pupps, by
the way, we got a puppy family on Fridays.

Speaker 6 (09:25):
Yeah, yeah, So when you say it was a presser
or a no, of course, of course.

Speaker 2 (09:31):
Yeah. You don't put that dog pet that dog.

Speaker 5 (09:34):
You and the big dogs too. I like that dog.
I like that. Well.

Speaker 1 (09:37):
The problem is I completely forgot like what having a
puppies like because obviously we've been having kids for the
last decade and I'm like kidding him. I was like,
oh man, I've got like anxiety about this because I
would actually say I feel like this stage in our life,
like babies are easier than than a puppy. There's just
there's too many things that are gonna happen with a

(09:59):
puppy now and that kind of go on. It's like
and we're trying to, you know, get him all settled
in and get used him everything else.

Speaker 2 (10:05):
But it's been wild.

Speaker 1 (10:06):
I mean, honestly, I completely forgot what it would be
like with this many moving parts.

Speaker 5 (10:11):
So that's pretty cool, man.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
I'm sure any advice over there far.

Speaker 6 (10:16):
Oh man, you just gotta his teeth are going and
it's a boy or girl.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
And by the way, he's already started humping stuff, which
I'm like, he's in eight weeks.

Speaker 5 (10:26):
It good for shadow shadow nice. So he's a black dog.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
Well more plays into the fact that my wife, after
we kind of got him, we had some names for a.

Speaker 4 (10:38):
Toying without the dog, saying like that's pretty good. We
waited way to jump the conclusion.

Speaker 1 (10:45):
But he's he's just been falling around my wife ever since,
so like he's basically her shadow.

Speaker 4 (10:51):
That's cool.

Speaker 5 (10:53):
Dog. I just assumed it was a black dog.

Speaker 6 (10:55):
In every shadow I've heard of that there, they're dark anyway,
you know, they the teeth, the teeth thing. Make sure
he has a lot of chew toys because he's going
to find something to chew no matter what with them,
tea buddy.

Speaker 1 (11:09):
I've already two pairs of my shoes to him at
this point, just take them.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
I was like, they're no those laces and shoes, break them.

Speaker 6 (11:16):
Apart, and then you literally have to take him out
upon either like immediately after he's done eating, you gotta
take him out and getting used to that smell because
they do not care.

Speaker 5 (11:30):
They do not care. They will stop and drop wherever
it is that they feel like it.

Speaker 4 (11:33):
You know, I don't think because I think that you know,
there's this you know, misconception that that Brady is not
a rude individual, and it showed itself come from well,
it showed itself a couple of moments ago where he
said any advice for mevar as if I haven't had dogs,
Like why couldn't I owe?

Speaker 1 (11:53):
Okay, okay, let's back up for a second. Since the
second hour of the show, I've been walking on eggshells
because now I can't bring up anything in the past.

Speaker 2 (12:04):
You made mention of.

Speaker 1 (12:05):
Complaining about me bringing up your dead dogs, so I
didn't want to throw it to you. LeVar has also
had a puppy more recently. Because he's not a weirdo
that's like, nope, kid, get another dog.

Speaker 4 (12:15):
Can't do it.

Speaker 2 (12:16):
Just done one and done. Like not one of those
guys either. So I'm just trying not to offend you,
and I'm trying to.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
Lean in the direction where I feel like the show
can take a more positive spin instead of you getting
your pennies at a bunch.

Speaker 4 (12:28):
Yeah, listen to you know, dogs are are borderline people.
They're not.

Speaker 6 (12:33):
Just feel like toyfish. Coyfish are off them. They're off
the list of you can make fun of. That's all
I'm saying. You know, you don't have to walk on
egg shells.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
You know, I never even I that was the house there.

Speaker 5 (12:48):
I just feel like they're off limits to this. Dogs.

Speaker 6 (12:51):
You know, that's different. You can replace dogs, you know,
coyfish you just can't.

Speaker 4 (12:55):
Really, you just can't. I mean, well, I don't know. Listen,
you know I had a dog points.

Speaker 2 (13:02):
Here we go. He's dead.

Speaker 5 (13:05):
Remember the name of my fifteen years ago.

Speaker 4 (13:08):
You know, he was a petite four hundred and thirty
seven pounds at the time of his passing.

Speaker 5 (13:14):
He was fat as hell. That video you showed me,
he wasn't like that.

Speaker 6 (13:19):
I would say he went like a lion out in
the wow big, like big four hundred pounds. He was
like really really fat, right, I think that's that? That right,
there's rude as well.

Speaker 5 (13:30):
He looked like he was lazy Jonas.

Speaker 4 (13:34):
I mean, there might be some validity to that, but
you know, he had earned it at that point, and uh,
you know, it was a hell of a ride. And
I just just want you to know that if you
are somebody about.

Speaker 6 (13:45):
That tree, you know when he ran about that tree running,
he wasn't going about a tree.

Speaker 5 (13:50):
To hike his leg. He was looking for where he
was going to take his knack forever.

Speaker 4 (13:56):
Oh yeah, right here, Jonas, look the shovel.

Speaker 1 (14:01):
Jonas, you sent your dog into an early grave with
the way you let him eat and lack of exercise. No,
I did not, Yes you did.

Speaker 4 (14:10):
Listen at bowl masted that dog was fat as hell. Yeah,
but you know what fad As, Yeah, yeah, yeah, but
ack then like that wasn't no yeah yeah yeah, but
his his fat ass got to twelve and a half
years old and for a bowl mastive at four hundred
and what I say thirty seven, I think it was
actually four fifty eight. At four hundred and fifty eight
pounds to get to twelve and a half years old.

(14:31):
That's impressive, man. So his fat ass got that work
and got that work and he got to twelve and
a half years old.

Speaker 3 (14:39):
So you know.

Speaker 4 (14:40):
And by the way, I think the anniversary of his
death was, when is it coming up? Is it the nineteenth?

Speaker 5 (14:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (14:45):
May nineteenth?

Speaker 2 (14:46):
Still holding on to that, huh yeah, nice, still hold
on to that. You know, maybe you need to put
that to bed.

Speaker 4 (15:07):
I mean he's humping everything though, huh already?

Speaker 1 (15:10):
Uh uh yeah, he's getting after it on some things,
one of which was this kind of pillow thing we
had for our our youngest who's like sixteen months almost
for him to like lay on.

Speaker 2 (15:23):
And I looked at Alsha, I'm like, you know, he
can't use this anymore.

Speaker 1 (15:26):
She goes, yeah, I no, She's like, I put the
other one in here, and I just gave that one
to him. I was like, okay, because he's been humping
it for like the last five minutes. But oh no,
what And I'm partial in the sense of like I
don't want to stop him from doing what nature has
called him to do. Oh yeah, But at the same time,
I'm like, it technically is his pillow now, so he

(15:47):
can do whatever he wants to.

Speaker 2 (15:48):
We can rip it up or carry on. You know,
I don't, I don't care.

Speaker 4 (15:52):
I mean, if he starts trying to pull the pillows hair,
I would step in at that point, but yeah, right now,
just let him do what he's got to.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
Stupid, I will say this, he's a sweet pup man.
Like I forgot how awesome it is to like have
a little puppy and just kind of see them.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
You know, run around on stuff.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
But I'm also it's sad because he's eight weeks I
feel like, by the time he's probably six months old,
he's not gonna be even close to a puppy anymore.

Speaker 4 (16:17):
With these sorts of news, and they all they all
smell the same, puppies all smell the same, just this
distinct odor to them. Some people like it.

Speaker 6 (16:26):
I think it's odor. Yeah, there's like it's a smell.
It's a baby ess. Yeah, come on, man, it's a
baby stuff.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
Let's how you know Jonas wasn't like a nice dog owner.
He never got another one, and then he's doubt. He's
like ragging on how.

Speaker 5 (16:42):
They smell so oder?

Speaker 4 (16:44):
Well, I anythink mine smells right now? Not great? Pushing
up daisies, he said, an odor. By the way, it

We are going to have another edition of The Leftovers
that'll be yours here in about twenty minutes from now.
I do want to ask you, guys, how much do
you think the Lakers complaining about the officiating impacted and

(18:41):
improve their performance in Game three of that series, how
much do you think that.

Speaker 5 (18:46):
They got a few calls. I think there were a
few calls that you could accent.

Speaker 4 (18:50):
Needed a few hundred more. It seems like.

Speaker 5 (18:53):
That's just that you are not wrong.

Speaker 4 (18:56):
I mean, Oklahoma City's going to wrap that up tonight, right,
ten and a half point favorite on the road. Did
you get this done and we move on with our lives? Yeah,
and then you get the Cleveland Cavaliers again. We mentioned
this earlier, three and a half points point favorites. I'm
a believer. I know that I am. I can't speak
for everybody on this show, but I'm a believer in

(19:16):
the Cavs. I think they're going to get it done.
We're going to go back to Detroit tied to to.

Speaker 1 (19:21):
By the sheer statistics of what you asked, though, I mean,
I believe the Lakers shot what twenty five free throw
attempts to Oklahoma City's ten?

Speaker 5 (19:30):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (19:31):
Yeah, so I mean kind.

Speaker 1 (19:34):
Of telling you know, the Lakers only with sixteen personal
fouls the Oklahoma City thunder with twenty two. So it
did have its effect, unfortunately not on the outcome of
the game for Lakers fans, and.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
Look, I think it's Look, they're defending champs.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
They appear to be the best of not one of
the best, you know, maybe top you'd say top three
at a minimum in the NBA this season. So there's
it's just not your ear.

Speaker 2 (19:58):
You don't have Lucas.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
It's a bit more of an issue, you know, for
you not being one hundred percent healthy and uh DeAndre
Aiden can't seem to get a.

Speaker 2 (20:05):
Rebound first life at times, So it's just not you're serious.

Speaker 6 (20:11):
Yeah, yeah, I wonder if he'll be back after this season. Yeah,
that just that's uh, that was a disappointment. He had
so much there was so much potential connected to what
he could have represented and been for the for the Lakers.
But you know, things happen the way that they happen.

(20:31):
It's a wrap for the Lakers. And it's going to
be interesting because now you're talking about the Knicks have
dominated Okay, see is dominating. They're most likely perceivably going
to get rest. How much longer or how quickly can
these other teams wrap up their their series and not

(20:54):
let a team get too much rest heading into that
next round, because you got to whom that you know,
health and rest are going to play a role in
the success moving forward in the tournament at this point.
So that's that's a that's something that's pressure that is
added to to the scenario. You would you would assume,

(21:17):
you know, as we get deeper into playoffs.

Speaker 4 (21:19):
I mean, if you are a Lakers fan listening to
this though, and you know you're bummed out, you're listening
on the blowtorch A five seven La Sports, I mean,
don't get so down on yourself because you do have
the World Cup coming to town this summer, so that'll
be played at the world's largest alive, sofi.

Speaker 2 (21:38):
Stay take out a second mortgage just to pay for tickets.

Speaker 4 (21:41):
The prices are jarring, especially out here. I'm showing for
the USA Paraguay match, which is a Friday night, so
you get to sit through traffic, and then you get
to sit through sit in a giant gazebo that you
can't even walk all the way around in, which is
even more fun, not including parking, which is probably about

(22:04):
one hundred dollars and drinks and everything included. I'm showing
the lowest priced ticket to that is just under forty
five hundred dollars or at the highest price is forty
five hundred dollars. The lowest price is about a grand,
and I don't think that includes fees and taxes added
on to that. So you can get in for a grand.
But if you want a really, really really top tier seat,

(22:27):
it's going to be forty five hundred dollars to watch
a soccer game for the World Cup. And so if
you just look around, people have complained about this that
the World Cup is just gouging the consumer if they
want to be a part of this. I have a
buddy who want a lottery to be able to buy
a World Cup ticket because he was convinced Italy was

(22:47):
finally going to be back in the World Cup this year.
Now he's got to sell that, so that's not happening.
But Arthur Blank is here to save the day. Okay,
now not from the ticket prices, but he's trying to
make things easier. Atlanta is hosting World Cup games, and
Mercedes Benz Stadium is hosting World Cup games. So if

(23:10):
you're in Atlanta and you go to those games, it's
still going to cost you about six hundred dollars for
the cheapest ticket to get in to see a World
Cup game, but the pricing for food, all of that
is going to remain cheap. This from Arthur Blank, who
spoke with WSBTV in Atlanta, quote, fans give us their energy,

(23:31):
their time, their passion, their resources, their families, whatever it
may be, and we need to honor that in the
truest sense of the word. We can't always control what
happens on the field, what happens on the pitch, but
we can control the fan experience. So you've got low,
low prices here. I mean, you want to get a
chili cheese dog for five bucks, you're in. You want

(23:52):
to get a hot dog for two bucks, you're in.
I mean, this is almost better than the Master's menu
also in Georgia. So at least Arthur Blank is looking
out for people, letting them know you're not going to
get gouged. It's probably unnecessary for us to charge the
prices that we charge at some of these venues. You're
already paying a bunch for the tickets. So at least

(24:13):
thee Atlanta Falcons and Arthur Blank have stepped up and
said we're not going to gouge you when it comes
to trying to get a bite to eat when you
go to any of these World Cup games.

Speaker 2 (24:21):
Either, so and good for him.

Speaker 1 (24:23):
I mean he's done that in other ways too, because
obviously the you know, NFL tickets aren't cheap either, But it.

Speaker 2 (24:28):
Seems like he's been very cognizant of that. I appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (24:31):
And I was trying to look at taking the family
to World Cup games this year and then look at
the ticket prices. You're like, not worth for that. You know,
I can go see an MLS game for much cheaper.
I realized it's not the same standard as a World
Cup or maybe even that experience.

Speaker 2 (24:45):
But my god, I mean, by the way the.

Speaker 1 (24:47):
Ticket prices you just mentioned, that's dropped down a bit.
I mean when I first saw them, like, it was
hard to find anything less than two grand or twenty
five hundred bucks per ticket.

Speaker 2 (24:56):
Crazy man.

Speaker 1 (24:56):
So I'm glad to see the market's correcting a bit
and people aren't wasting money to pay for that.

Speaker 2 (25:02):
And look, if you're a big soccer fan, I'm not.

Speaker 1 (25:05):
It's a waste of money for me, only because you know,
my kids ages, I'm not even sure they will remember it.
Maybe my girls, you know what, the age they're at
but this is if you're gonna spend that sort of
money on something, you want to make sure they at
least come away with a memory to it.

Speaker 2 (25:17):
I mean, hell at that point.

Speaker 1 (25:18):
But as they're going to Disney World, if you're paying
you know, that sort of price for the tickets, it's.

Speaker 5 (25:23):
A lot of scratch. Man.

Speaker 6 (25:25):
It just it just goes to show where the industry
has gone. And you know, I just wonder at some point,
I know it doesn't because the you know, sports, sports
are always going to represent what it represents to the
entire civilization. It's just a it's a deeply rooted part.

Speaker 5 (25:47):
Of who we are and what we do.

Speaker 6 (25:49):
Is competing doing things data duh. So I don't think
there will be you know, I was going to say
a disconnect between participation at the youth levels versus what
it looks like, you know, at the college professional level,
just based upon the fact that at this at this
pro point, at the point of pros and I dare

(26:11):
say it could be approaching that at college as well.
It could be higher prices, the inflation of what it
costs to go to the games, you know, all of
it put together, it just isn't as attractive to as
large a massive, massive amount of people as it was before,

(26:34):
or maybe it really is and now it doesn't matter
because you can go so corporate with how you're doing
it that it's so expensive that you can't do it.

Speaker 5 (26:44):
But I just can't see how a.

Speaker 6 (26:46):
Regular everyday family that it should be nice, it would
be nice for them to be able to get away,
go watch a game and watch it in person.

Speaker 5 (26:57):
Why they get It's like it's not even an option anymore.

Speaker 4 (27:00):
So with the product, with TV being as good as
it is as it is now in every sport now,
I'm telling you, but why would.

Speaker 5 (27:09):
You're starting to make pay for everything you watch.

Speaker 4 (27:12):
On you but you're not paying if I wanted to
watch a soccer game, I'm not paying a grand just
to get in when I can watch it and see
great coverage of it, see every angle. I don't have
to wait in the lines, I don't have to go
through all the mess to try and get to the venue.
I just think it's also you look at this stuff
and maybe that this is part of Arthur Blank's thought

(27:33):
as well too. Look, man, it's becoming harder than ever
to get people to leave when the product we put
on television and streaming is so good. So at least
when they show up, you know, throw them a bone
and slash prices and a lot of this stuff. You know,
a beer, a large beer is eleven dollars. That still

(27:54):
seems excessive, and then you consider you go get a
large beer at say, Dodge your stadium, Like I I
went to a Dodgers game a couple of weeks ago.
It's crazy, man, crazy, It's like quadruple the prices for
all this stuff.

Speaker 6 (28:10):
I thought sports was for the community to be able
to enjoy it. It just doesn't seem like that's what
the model is anymore. Maybe it was never the model.
I just I just don't understand why you would make
pricing so high that you can't, you know, people just
regular normal heart working nine to five people can't afford

(28:32):
to go.

Speaker 5 (28:32):
I just I don't doesn't make sense.

Speaker 1 (28:37):
I love seeing these guys though, take the screen grabs
of their receipts at different games, and they'll be complaining
about the prices of everything.

Speaker 2 (28:46):
But you go look on the actual receipt where it's.

Speaker 1 (28:48):
Itemized it will be like, you know, twenty bud lights,
you know, accorating to like twentudred dollars worth, So like
you're actually looking at saying, oh, okay, I get it,
I get it. Everyone's just trying to have a good
time with all of it. But yeah, I mean, at
the end of the day, you got to justify how
you're going to spend your money. When you make some

(29:09):
money and want to have fun, and if people want
to go on and do it, go to a game, great, like,
go enjoy it. I mean, have your fun with it,
you know, make sure you take it all in. But
it is crazy how a sports in every capacity, whether
you're going to watch it as a fan, whether you're
you know, playing it yourself or your kids are in it.
Like everything's just gotten more expensive. It's tough, man, It's
tough on the wall. It's tough on you know, trying

(29:30):
to budget for some of those things anymore.

Speaker 4 (29:32):
I've got a pregame.

Speaker 1 (29:34):
Well I'll just say that's that's the problem is be safe,
just getting there and back, you know, that's the biggest thing.

Speaker 5 (29:40):
Yeah, you know he's Jonas.

Speaker 4 (29:41):
Got a pregame, got a uber.

Speaker 2 (29:43):
You know, here's the thing that always hits me out
about Jonas.

Speaker 1 (29:46):
Though Jonas preaches all these things but yet he doesn't
partake in any of them. So what well, that's it
just comes off as a bit disingenuous if you're not
actually a point set and you can't give us an experience.

Speaker 4 (29:59):
Oh listen, welcome sports talk radio. All right, this is
this is where we get to play in that sandbox. Okay,
Like I have all sorts of opinions on stuff I
know nothing about. I mean, you want to get into
the UFO files, get into that too. I don't know
anything about it.

Speaker 2 (30:12):
But let's go venture there. What did you take from that?
What do you take from that little little dump one
on front?

Speaker 4 (30:18):
Not not totally surprised, but you know, just the idea
that people thought that, well, you know, this stuff is
out there and if you believe in this stuff, you're
just crazy. It's okay, So everybody was making up stories.
Everybody was making stuff up, like I mean, here's the.

Speaker 1 (30:34):
Hard part is if you do try to sort through
some of that stuff, you know, you'll see someone post
something and oh, this is footage from this footage from this.
Then you know, you someone will be.

Speaker 2 (30:43):
Like, hey, Grock, is this actually legitimate or is this real?

Speaker 1 (30:46):
And I'll be like, no, this is not this is
a fake, this is AI, this is you know, and
then you start going, okay, so maybe none of the
videos were actually real.

Speaker 2 (30:52):
It was all just you know, reports and different accounts.

Speaker 4 (30:55):
But that was the extent of it, because you know,
you get the uh, the crackpot theories that come out
and these goofballs. It's like the Locknest Monster and bere like, man,
I think it's real, and they go, oh, look at this.
We think we have a black and white footage of it,
and it turns out it was some guy with a
sock on his hand reaching out of the water. It's like,
you're ruin it for everybody. There's legitimate stories, legitimate abductions,

(31:20):
legitimate UFOs. And then you get some hippie who's who's
a drug addict disguised as a father of four, who
shows up in the woods and swears he sees Bigfoot. No,
you're just a junkie who got a little frisky one
night and you saw, you know, some woman with way
too much body hair and it turned you on. That's
what happened. That's what Bigfoot was to you. You're ruining

(31:43):
it for everybody else. And these UFO files that came out.

Speaker 3 (31:46):
Proved a lot of people.

Speaker 4 (31:47):
Right, Oh god, I think it's important.

Speaker 5 (31:50):
Because you are a believer in UFOs and.

Speaker 6 (31:52):
Aliens, because you have seen aliens right, naval encounters, naval pilots. No, No,
I was asking you, like, you've seen these aliens at
least one, right, you've seen at least one alien. You've
seen at least one flying saucer up close? Where you

(32:13):
was like, man, that's a flying saucer, right, look at
that alien right there?

Speaker 5 (32:17):
Can you explain to us what they look like?

Speaker 6 (32:20):
Yeah, you know there's a jew flying saucers. Do flying
saucers not have windows?

Speaker 1 (32:25):
Like?

Speaker 8 (32:25):
What?

Speaker 5 (32:25):
Like ken? What do they look like?

Speaker 4 (32:30):
They have different shapes. There's one that looks like a chandelier.
There's one that looks like a tic tac. There's one
that There's all sorts of shapes, different shapes and.

Speaker 6 (32:37):
Sizes out there, you know, not all the not all
the same. You asked, you've seen all of these different models? No,
I mean personally no, But I have had experience you
asked me about, you know, alien experiences.

Speaker 5 (32:52):
Do you do you think they have UFO? Do you
think they have like spaceship dealerships? Wherever?

Speaker 6 (32:59):
These unidentified flying objects are coming from to to you
know Earth. Do you think that wherever that planet is
they have like, you know, dealerships like where you can
go on the lot. Yeah, and I'm sure go on
the lot. Get you this one just want to take.

Speaker 4 (33:16):
You to and then and then Wemby and Cheat Holbern
are there just waving away right in the wind. Yeah,
they're there too. By the way, if you don't think
aliens are real, look at Wemby. Explain that. Put stand
Victor Webman Yama next to Peter Dinklage and tell me
they're both human beings. Go ahead, same same species. Go ahead.

(33:38):
Explain that one doesn't make any sense.

Speaker 5 (33:44):
I mean that's a it's fair.

Speaker 1 (33:48):
I mean it does draw into question. I mean people
will be like, no, no, that's just genetics. Okay, Well,
I don't know. Maybe maybe there's a little something in
that cocktail sauce, you know, could be fair. It's real, man,
Just so people know at home, Jonas loves conspiracy theories.

Speaker 2 (34:06):
He loves everything aliens.

Speaker 1 (34:09):
I just love, oh my god, whatever it could be
the coronavirus.

Speaker 4 (34:17):
I rented every single conspiracy book that I was growing up.
They would tell you would need to have a book
after lunchtime so you could read. It was like SSR
was a silence sustained reading or whatever they called it
in school. Every book I rented was either Locknest, Monster, Bigfoot, UFOs,
JFK Assassination. I mean all of that stuff. I just

(34:39):
was fascinated by it. I think I don't believe a
lot of it, but I just different ideas, you know,
different theories about things. It's fun, you know, color outside
the lines a little bit. By the way, the University
of Maryland Global Campus, you can choose for more than

Where's the leftovers?

Speaker 9 (36:07):
I suck today? You know what it is? I haven't
slept in twenty seven hours.

Speaker 4 (36:10):
That's that's probably I blame American Airlines.

Speaker 9 (36:13):
You know what I do too.

Speaker 5 (36:14):
I like that blame.

Speaker 9 (36:17):
Let's go with that.

Speaker 10 (36:18):
I like the Oh my goodness, Oh we can fix
this really faster.

Speaker 3 (36:22):
Are you ready, warrior me?

Speaker 9 (36:25):
Look at that? It's leftover as well? Help me on Monday?
What I'm gonna go to bed?

Speaker 4 (36:33):
All right?

Speaker 3 (36:35):
So what do we got?

Speaker 4 (36:35):
Ray raye?

Speaker 9 (36:36):
Okay, Well, y'all like a good roast.

Speaker 10 (36:38):
Right, Yeah, Well, Tom Maydy Brady made a surprise appearance
at the roast of Kevin Hart. He actually wanted to
make payback for him and his twenty twenty four roast
that Kevin Hart went after him. He actually took a
couple of brutal shots at Heart and his uh wife. Actually,
he said, I couldn't get this one on video. I
think they're keeping it in like a storage container until

(36:59):
you actually go watch it. But he said, all right,
this won't take long because, as you guys know, I'm
a busy man.

Speaker 9 (37:05):
But I do have a few words for you before
I returned.

Speaker 10 (37:07):
My affairs in Las Vegas. Oh wait, I'm talking about
affairs in Las Vegas.

Speaker 9 (37:13):
Was that off? Not supposed to talk about affairs in Vegas?

Speaker 6 (37:15):
Oh?

Speaker 9 (37:15):
I think I broke another rule.

Speaker 4 (37:17):
F it I talked about it, boy.

Speaker 10 (37:21):
So if you guys recall Kevin Heart, she did on
a Nico back in twenty seventeen while she was eight
months pregnant, and she someone texted her and told her
that the affair was going on. And then Kevin openly
spoke about it and made a public apology to everyone
and his wife and him and Nico are still together
to this day and have a beautiful, big family and

(37:42):
a Nico was in the audience when Tom Brady made
that joke, So it didn't sit very well for a
lot of people.

Speaker 4 (37:48):
Well, you know, it's a roast.

Speaker 6 (37:51):
It is a roast, and Tom Brady has the right
to joke about stuff like that.

Speaker 5 (37:57):
You know, if you've lived it, you kind of you know,
you get a pass to do it.

Speaker 4 (38:01):
What second you think that you think that was going
on with Breaking Well too, Well.

Speaker 5 (38:08):
No, I'm just saying he fell victim to being on
that side of things too.

Speaker 1 (38:15):
You know, I'm just saying there were some had fun
vicious comments made during that roast. Just for some of
the snippets. I mean everyone was getting Chelsea Handler was
getting it. She was also dishing it out. I mean,
we can't probably play nine of what was actually said

(38:36):
in that.

Speaker 6 (38:38):
Cat Williams Fridy Man. He stayed above board. Though I
don't understand this.

Speaker 1 (38:44):
I thought the Cat Williams Kevin Hart beef was born
out of like neither account being theirs are real, and
they were like, there's two accounts beefing, Like, didn't Cat
Williams tell that story?

Speaker 5 (38:57):
I don't know. I'm not up on it all like that.

Speaker 1 (39:00):
So I remember seeing a clip where he was at
some event and they're like, oh, Kevin Hartz here is
like and and he's like, you know, you guys are
beef or whatever. He's like, I don't have social media.
He's like, I don't know what you're talking about. And
then someone explained it to him and he was trying
to explain it to Kevin. But I don't know that
was at least the interview that I saw that he
took place in, So I don't know if they're playing

(39:21):
it up or if there was an actual legitimate beef
there that I somehow missed.

Speaker 4 (39:26):
I wonder how many when you start to bring in
celebrities and athletes into that world, because comedians, that's just
what they do, and I just wonder how many of
them can handle that sort of ball busting.

Speaker 5 (39:40):
Yl was going at Draymond's neck. I mean, you know, it's.

Speaker 10 (39:45):
I the dream I have the Draymond Green roast that
he did on stage. If you guys want to listen.

Speaker 2 (39:50):
To that one, Okay, is that appropriate?

Speaker 6 (39:54):
I think he said that's dropped that bomb a couple
of times.

Speaker 3 (39:58):
Okay, Raymond Green is here.

Speaker 6 (40:03):
Yeah, Draymond's here.

Speaker 5 (40:11):
For now.

Speaker 1 (40:13):
I could probably get thrown out in the next ten minutes.

Speaker 5 (40:16):
You know we're not roasting Steve Kerr, right, yeah, okay,
Oh that was an easy one. Okay, I thought you're
gonna put.

Speaker 9 (40:24):
He went out his next No, anything that had too much?

Speaker 4 (40:26):
Was there any funny stuff?

Speaker 5 (40:27):
Well, I want Draymond to have Carson in it. When
he was.

Speaker 1 (40:31):
Telling you, no, the one, the one where Draymond refers
to Chelsea Handler, he goes something along the lines of,
you know, I've never hooked up with Chelsea Handler, nor
would I.

Speaker 2 (40:42):
I'm Draymond Green. I don't hit threes, and.

Speaker 6 (40:47):
The line okay, all right, well done.

Speaker 2 (40:53):
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (40:58):
He had a couple more things to say.

Speaker 6 (41:01):
It was interesting, but okay, nice good leftovers
