Speaker 3 (01:29):
Good morning, pe Hello, good morning, old good morning. You
sound awake, You sound alert.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
I got up a little earlier today.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Nice.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
What's going on corect shower?
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Oh that doesn't happen often.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Well, not before the show here, Noka, But I'm up
and I'm ready to rock and roll.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
You sound bright?
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Sort, I'm getting over a cold, but I'm on, Petro.
So what do you? I must say what I know enough?
Anyone I know? Oh?
Speaker 3 (02:01):
No, are you officially fed up or sick of?
Speaker 2 (02:06):
You?
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Love this song?
Speaker 2 (02:07):
No?
Speaker 1 (02:08):
The uh, the the Luca Lakers lebron coverage thus far?
Speaker 3 (02:15):
I mean, are you? Are you officially over?
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Because it does feel like, man, the NBA and ESPN
really need this thing to work.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Yeah, this is a big deal and it's it's going
well right. I mean, that was great drama last night.
You have the guy hit a three and turned to
the bench and scream at him. I mean after they
traded him and poisoned the well on him and said
he was fat and out of shape and unmanageable. I mean,
you want to trade the guy, trade him, but you
didn't have to poison all the all the stuff about
(02:44):
him because your fan base is angry. And the more
and more it kind of sort of perpetuates itself. And
we see what Lebron and Luke on the Lakers, and
are they this good? I mean in the moment they are,
and they were great against Denver. They hadn't been able
to win specifically there in a long time. Denver had
(03:04):
had their number. And from what all the basketball experts
type say, and this Breckless coverage that you are referring to,
I guess JJ Reddick did a great job sending different
defenders at Djokich and had him confused. I mean, there's
always an adjustment to an adjustment, and that's why we
talk about seven game series. But they need desperately for
(03:27):
the Lakers and the Lebron and Luca thing and the
short term to work, and they needed to work in
the long term. And the more and more you see
it kind of play out, the more and more you
think like, Wow, there's no way that Rob Polinka and
Nico Harrison did this deal for a month under the
cover of night, with no leaks or anything like that.
(03:51):
Call me a conspiracy theorist, call me whatever you want.
This was orchestrated by the NBA as a hail Mary
to save the NBA in twenty twenty five because of
the lack of interest, which is prevalent and something people
are finally discussing. I mean, they could have been discussing
this for four or five years as the NBA has
(04:11):
been dropping off, but suddenly it's okay to discuss it
and admit that the end. I mean, back three years ago,
if you said, man, people aren't watching the NBA like
they used to. Used to get screamed down and they
say you were disinformation and you don't understand. People get
the games streaming, they watch on Twitter, and you don't understand,
you know, And it's like, Okay, I don't understand. I'm
(04:32):
just looking at these NFL and college football ratings compared
to the shut up you don't understand, you know. It's like, well,
I live in LA and it kind of seems like
the Dodgers have gone into the Lakers house like those
Chileans with Joe Burrow and stashed their change. Damn, you
don't understand, you don't get it. You don't know about
modern media. So then it's like that was three years ago,
(04:54):
and now all of a sudden, it's okay to admit
that the NBA's faltering. What changed? What changed? Maybe some
things politically, you know. So it's interesting that we're able
to finally admit that the NBA was struggling, and then
we're supposed to act like this Laker Dallas Mavericks trade
of the century. That makes no sense for Dallas, especially
(05:16):
after Anthony Davis blue Is Groin and literally flamed up
their fan base like a Sioux fle and in a
bad way. And I'm supposed to I'm supposed to somehow
accept that this was done by Rob Polinka, a guy
who can't even have a decent haircut, though he's probably
spend seven hundred dollars on it. I mean, it just
(05:37):
doesn't make sense. So it's great, it's something to talk
about this time of year. It's it's a wonderful thing.
I mean, it's February or the Lakers going to ride
this to an NBA championship. Hell, who knows. I don't
think so. But they looked good last night, and they've
looked good throughout since Luca's got back into shape, and
(05:59):
I mean he looks a lot better. He looks skinnier
after the few weeks he's been here, just because I
think his calves aren't blown out like they were ever
since Christmas Day. But I'm not against it. I just
am very skeptical of as to how it happened.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
Lebron looks like he's accepted the challenge of it, though, right,
wouldn't you say that you see a more energetic, more
I don't know, assertive Lebron James.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
I mean, well, who's got the biggest rabbit ears in sports?
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Is it Lebron?
Speaker 2 (06:32):
And is people right? People like if you say and
him right? So if you say something about Bronnie and
you're Steven A. Smith, I don't know if it happens.
If you're LeVar Arrington, it doesn't happen. If you're Petros Papanek,
it happens. If you're calling Cowherd. You know, if you
say something about them, Rich Paul or one of his
people call you. I mean it happened with steven A
(06:53):
when he went after Bronni and then they called him,
and then he went after them for calling him and
called him soft. Maybe they won't call him back, but
the point is he's got people and feelers everywhere. When
Lebron came to LA he brought two reporters with him.
Uh the woman on TV, I don't I forget her
name and uh mcminnimon. Uh they I mean, he literally
(07:15):
has embedded people working propaganda for him wherever he goes.
And no one says, wow, this is kind of weird. No,
they just accept it. And it comes with the Lebron contingency,
including and I'm not kidding a DJ that the Lakers
have to hire. Wait what Yeah, Lebron's DJ works at
the Laker facility.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
He's got his own DJ, correct. I mean, every superhero
has to have a great theme song. I mean that,
and I'm gonna get you Sucker keenan Ivory Way and
those guys they made sure you knew that everything.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Lebron's song though, that terrible one he did with two chains.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
I don't know, I think two changs. No, that's that's Jello. Yeah,
that's a bang. I mean, if you listen to Hour too.
The opening song for Hour two, you'll hear some two Chains.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
And remember Lebron did that song when it was two
Chain song where he was trying to do like be
a producer. Remember that when Lebron did that we have a.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
Can you get that a Lebron two Chains?
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Well it wasn't. I don't even know if the song
would be offensive or anything. I mean, obviously two Chains
is a professional musician. But but like there was like
this weird propagand this was years ago, I think it was.
There was this weird propaganda video of him like producing
in the studio with two change. Of course, he was
throwing his fists like when the beat dropped.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
He does no music though, oh who doesn't.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
By the way, I'm just curious if you're finished, like
winner of the what's going to be? My name is
two Chains? Which ones didn't make it? Like, I'd love
to know what was he thinking about that?
Speaker 2 (08:54):
He said, now you know we just lost Project Pat.
Did he heard about it? But I think so? I mean,
you'll correct me if I'm wrong. But Project Pat, who
was a Southern rapper, he became a pastor. He's saying,
chicken head, chicken head, did you need some guns? Some
thunder was Project Pat?
Speaker 3 (09:15):
Was he three six Mafia? But he's connected to them though? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (09:18):
No, Project Pat had chicken bald head, scaley watt he
got no hair in back. Yeah, yeah, and he died
chicken chicken wop wop chicken head. Now that is a song.
I had a DJ.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
He's still here. He's still here.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
If I had a song, then that's how I would
enter with.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
He became like a Now he's like a pastor.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Oh you sure, Dad? In my face it been on
a yack. That's if I had a.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
D is actually the older brother, the Juicy J. And
that's his connection to three six Mafia. Who JUICYJ is
a big time producer and you know rapper for you
know three six months.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Tell Joe, Tell Joe.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
I knew that today, Like I found that out just now. Yeah,
I did not know that. There you go, Well it.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Is you to answer your question, LeVar. I think Lebron
knows that everybody's waiting to see how he'll react. I
don't think Lebron is able to emotionally. I don't know.
I mean just a it's a very very outside opinion
of somebody that I don't know, but just given the history,
(10:33):
I don't know if Lebron will be able to emotionally
maintain if things go a little sideways. He seems to
be pretty reactionary to this kind of thing, and every
superstar teammate's ever had, he's ended up usually cutting their
throat off, so, you know, like a pez dispenser. So
so we'll see how it plays out. But it's certainly
a great story in the city right now. I try
(10:55):
not to be a prisoner of the moment. Ever since
I proclaimed Marquise Lee to be the greatest football player
I've ever seen, I stopped.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
I stopped being a receiver potential. Yeah, no, the rapper,
that's to change his real name. So get him on
X at the op. Petros Papadicas with us here on
Fox Sports Radio. Hey, what do you make of the
Matthew Stafford situation with the Rams, because I I can
(11:23):
understand that. Hey, listen, you know I want to be
paid my worth. I get all that.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
I thought. I listened to your actually rant, I guess
you would call it or whatever piece they cut and
tweeted it from your weekend show, Jonas, Thanks, did you
know LeVar that Jonas has a weekend show where he
just waxes poetically without anybody interrupting him.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
I mean, yeah about that, you know, And I get
to drive a show on the weekend right before he
comes on. So it's like, condy, we we roll reverse.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
It's the undercard of the Jonas Knox ship here, LeVar
Company on there.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Actually we're the main event in your extra credit it
it's like you want some bonus time, We're.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Going to change, is going to play, and then there's
gonna be an after hours da. I just don't.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
I don't understand why I can't. It feels like Matthew
Stafford is really like tightening the screws on. I've got
to get every dollar out of my career as opposed
to Yeah, I feel great, it's a great spot to
be in. Why not work with them? Maybe you take
a little bit of a discount with the Rams, but
(12:31):
you're closer to a super Bowl yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
I mean, look, I can't manage anything, so it's hard
for me to judge. So when you start talking about
what's the difference between fifty million and sixty million dollars
or something, I mean it's lost on many of us, right,
But when you're talking about generational wealth and how your
kids kids are going to feel your wealth, uh like
(12:56):
Matt Stafford's are. Maybe they manage it different that being
said as a qualifier, what you said made a lot
of sense to me. I mean, this guy, he was
the number one pick back with the number one pick,
really got paid right before they had a different structure
for rookies. They paid him in Detroit, and they sent
(13:17):
him where he wanted to go to the rams, and
what have they done with Detroit afterwards? They've acted like
Detroit was terrible, that their time in Detroit was horrible.
The city embraced him and his family, and they've turned
around basically and defecated on the city of Detroit. I mean,
haven't they. I mean, you asked the people in Detroit,
(13:39):
and they gave him everything he wanted, the money, the trade,
everything he wanted. He comes out to La he has success.
They went a Super Bowl. I mean, you can't argue
with that, They've made the playoffs, He's performed at a
high level. He's a tough guy, seems like a great leader.
They've overlooked the fact that his wife is a certifiable nightmare.
(14:02):
I don't think anybody on the team, in the building
or on the periphery would argue that if she just
seems like a real negative to deal with, as far
as if you even have to deal with one of
your player's spouses, I mean, unbelievable what they put up
with her and what goes public about the stupid thing
(14:22):
she says. I think you're right, Jonas, I think that,
But I think that there's probably an element of hubris
involved on both sides, because Stafford's sitting here saying, you
think you can do this without me McVeigh Eugenius and
he's like, yeah, I did it with Jared Goff, I'll
do it with me, And all these Shanahan guys will
(14:45):
use Brock Purdy or Sam Darnold or anybody we can
and find a way to have success. And they have
that kind of feeling or that vibe within the building.
I think McVeigh has that kind of confidence, and maybe
they've reached kind of an egotistical impasse when it comes
to this. I'd love to see him shipped to Cleveland
(15:07):
or something so Brady Brady can talk about how Kelly
will be embraced in that beautiful town. But I mean
it'll be interesting.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
They rock a little differently though in the Midwest, though,
you know, they're not as you know, passive aggressive as well.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
That's how they treated him in Detroit.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
Yeah, that's true, you.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Know, I mean, that's what he did. That's a Midwest town.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
Maybe they forgot about how it was in Detroit. Maybe
that's why the podcast she said.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
She said on the podcast, LeVar, I love an adventure. Hey,
do you think here's Lake Erie and some scuba gear.
Here's the Indiana Jones song, have some Fun.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Do you think they would have won that Super Bowl
with Jared Goff? Because I do.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
I don't know. Maybe, I mean Jared Goff, there was
weird stuff like, look, I didn't like Jared Goff coming
out of college. I didn't like the air raid system
he came out of He barely had the muscles and
his ass and legs to get under center and drop back.
And he kind of didn't. I mean, he looked like
a baby giraffe when he first started in the NFL.
(16:12):
But I mean he developed into a very good, serviceable quarterback.
Uh And and he's been great in Detroit. You just
can't argue that. And my god, that beautiful fiance. She's
so surprised about the way she looks, just that look
on her face, like wow, look at these what and
uh oh a lovely guy? So I got her too.
(16:34):
She's pretty cool. She can't believe it. She's like, I'm
a super pretty He's like, I'm as surprised as you are.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
That's kind of funny. Hey, where did that come from?
Speaker 2 (16:46):
I'm uh, I think that. Yeah, maybe they could have
won that super Bowl with golf, but you know there
is that vibe that you know, you need that guy
to help you make that one play, that back, to
make that one throw, or make that one decision to
put you over the top. And it's hard to argue
that Matthew Stafford wasn't that guy in the moment for
(17:09):
the Rams. Uh. If they ship him, it'll be because
the Rams are confident that they can do it with
somebody else, and he's probably a little too interested in
squeezing every penny out of his football career. Like you said,
but it's hard to judge somebody on how much money
they think they need. Uh. When it's that much, I
don't I don't know. I'd buy all the g I
Joe guys if I were him, Oh, man, I'd have
(17:33):
the aircraft carrier.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
What direction do you think they should go in if
they if they were to part ways, do you think
Aaron Rodgers will.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
I want Aaron rod like I want a terrible insane
story in the city.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
Yes, yes, yes, that's a terrible and insane story if
Aaron Rodgers comes here.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Potentially, right, I mean he's going to be He's going
to be in the media capital of the world, or
the second biggest media capital of the world. He was
an the media capitol last year. And presumably you'd like
to think that the Rams are better run than the
the the Jets, right, that's a bit of a general consensus. Yes,
and maybe the Raiders too, which would be close enough.
(18:14):
I mean, the Raiders have more popularity in LA in
most circles, and the Rams and the Chargers combined. So
if he goes to Las Vegas, that would be interesting too.
Sam Darnald is is a great story. Even though he
didn't play for Pete Carroll, people have that timeline all
screwed up. He played for Clay Helton, so he was
two coaches removed, and Clay Hilton had nothing to do
(18:36):
with Pete Carroll. They didn't cross over, but the Trojans, right, Yeah,
So that would be interesting to see Donald in town
or in Vegas.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
You know, Petro.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
Some would say the last successful USC head coach Clay Helton,
you know, some would say that.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
Yeah, you could say that. I mean, well, I mean
the other Yeah, the other guy lost in a Cotton
Bowl to to Tulane, to Willy Fritz.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
He had a Heisman Trophy winner and a number one overall.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Draft, but those are individual awards.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
And a pretty successful Yeah, is.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
The Louisville coach still the guy that coached LeVar Lamar Jackson.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Thank you for doing that, by the way, because it
never happens that way, Petros, So thank you get called
thank you. I get called Lamar at least twice a day.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Now. That's too revenge of the nerds for me to
call it.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
And that's our era. So that's that.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
It hits me a little with the floppy spears.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
With the floppy javelin. It used to hit me bad
if somebody made a mistake and called me Lamar back
in the day. I don't take as much offense because
I know who they're referencing now, and as you know,
it is what it is.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
There's no doubt Lincoln Riley. Lincoln Riley brought in a
very special generational talent in Caleb Williams to USC. He
didn't do a great job relating to the area, but
neither has Lincoln. And and even with Caleb Williams, they
fell off a table, they did. I mean they didn't
go off like a long embankment or like a slow
(20:07):
diagonal decline. They literally fell off a table in the
last three years. So yeah, and Clay, but but so
did Clay Helton. I mean, well, the one thing you
can say about Clay Helton is they beat that and
State team and the Rose Bowl with Darnold, and there
was a great game back and forth, barking on the tea, yeah,
(20:28):
all of those things. So it was a great game
that people remember and you think, oh god, Clay Helton
was the coach, and then nationally you don't realize that
they were like five hundred every year. But but yeah,
us he is in desperate need of of of some
kind of turnaround, and I don't know if it's coming
well now when you're under a ninety million dollar buyout.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Maybe Stafford, maybe Stafford could.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
Help him out. That's true. Stafford's trying to get more.
He's got a few trying to get none to him.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Listen, I just wonder if they've taken most of that
money he's made. He's made three sixty in his career,
and I wonder if you know a lot of that's
gone towards the production of the Missus podcast.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
So you're hateful for you how much just.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
A cost for a microphone and like a circle light,
you know.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
I mean, look hateful for it.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Man, it's not like to call her daddy podcast, you know,
or it's costs a bunch of money.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
I mean, maybe it is, call her daddy.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
I wanted to make my Jedius side dated. The imagine
all the people she'd have to date to make them
jealous in Las Vegas? Oh wow, next thing, you know,
you're on a date with T T Boy?
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Oh wow?
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Yeah, T T Boy? Oh what y'all know about T
T Boy?
Speaker 3 (21:43):
I think Cleveland would be interesting for them. I'm sure
she'll keep it.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
I think that they deserve Cleveland, and Cleveland deserves that
can't be any worse than the massage table guy they
paid like. Oh, I mean, hey, if you're justin Tucker,
When do you stop going to the high end places?
All right, let's talk about maybe are you want massage?
Isn't the place to ask for your happy baby or
(22:10):
whatever it is?
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Yeah, Onyce, you do the decent thing and go to
some place where they can keep a secret.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Yeah, listen, I'm not trying to be a hater because
I love Maryland. But we all know Baltimore is different
than Maryland. It's like a whole different place. You're in Baltimore.
What's different about it? You're in Baltimore, like there are
plenty of opportunities to be on the low and and
have that.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
You're saying that there's like a knuckle shuffle.
Speaker 3 (22:37):
I just don't want to, but.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
There's like Bodega's.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Because I am a d m V guy, I'm not
a Baltimore guy. I don't claim Baltimore. I'm a DMV guy,
claim DC, Maryland, Virginia. But if Maryland is different from Baltimore,
if you understand DMV politics and Baltimore politics, you know
it's a Beltway thing. Anyway. I'm just saying I've been
to balder More quite a few times, and and people
(23:03):
who know about Baltimore, you know, some people know it
through the wire, and you know, I'll.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
Tell you what. It's just a kicker. And he was
too stiff to find a real place.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
I just, I just I couldn't have been hard to
find one of those places that wouldn't have been high
profile and paying what you would probably paid in that
salon that you went to.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
He should have been able to find a comfortable place
to do whatever it is he liked to do in
the shadows without us discussing it on that.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
I mean most likely even at his home. You need
a neon light, better place than than if you're paying
for your service in Baltimore, like Owen's Mills or wherever
it is you want to go. It's really easy a
neon light with a foot in the window and open
you're not sure where the front door is, shady spot, yeah,
(23:53):
open twenty four hours and rid light.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
I had a friend who was at a place in
Redondo once and uh, he got raided and he hid
under the table and slid out the back door.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
Oh wow, and made it and like really made it.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Yeah. And imagine like you're driving down the street a
little later by the Fat Burger, like, hey, all.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Right, that ball look at those scumbags.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Looks like they're rounding up the usual suspects here.
Speaker 3 (24:23):

Wal weal is man. Well he's a piece of work.
Bro wellt's got a member's card, he flashes at the
front door.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
He is a piece of work, all right, coming up
next here from the Tirak dot com studios. Apparently not
everybody was thrilled with one move made by a team
in the NFL. We'll get into that for you here.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
On FSR be sure to catch live editions of Two
Pros and a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar
Arrington and Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern three
am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3 (25:36):
We are going to have Lee's left over right here.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
That'll be yours in about twelve minutes from now, Let's
listen to Aaron Glenn, the coach of the New York Jets,
who discussed the fact that apparently there were some players
that were not happy with the Jets decision to move
on from one.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
Aaron Rodgers, let's take a listen.
Speaker 5 (25:58):
I understand the reaction of the players, but I would
say this, Every decision that men moves make is to
win and to win now, so I understand it.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
But again, listen, it's not gonna be the last decision
I make, right. It's not that it's gonna.
Speaker 5 (26:13):
Upset some people. That's okay, right, But as me and
we talk about it, we make sure we keep it
in the house that we're going to continue to do
all right.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Well, if you want to keep familiar, yeah, if you
want to keep things in house, probably not the best
organization to be with. If that's the case because that
doesn't happen there. But it has a familiar tone to it, right, yeah, yeah, yeah,
thats a familiar tone. And I wonder if if it
has the opportunity to work in that market. You know,
(26:40):
Detroit is a tough, hard nosed market, but it's Detroit.
And I think that when you look at and when
I say it's Detroit, it's not like, oh, well it's
Detroit like something like that, Like that's derogatory. What I
mean by saying it's Detroit. It's not as big a
market as New York City. So if you go into
(27:02):
Detroit and you run it up the you know, the
cultural deal, you you get out into the media and
into the community.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
You're talking about a community that will embrace something that
kind of matches who they are. They're tough, they're hard knows,
their mill workers, lunch pel hard hat people. That's Detroit.
New York is a different animal. Now. While I will
say Aaron Glenn played for the Jets, he knows, he
(27:33):
knows the confines, He's familiar with the place, and it's
interesting that he's you can hear the same type of
energy that we hear Dan Campbell speak with it's that
same type of you know, moxie and that grit and
what it is that he's saying. I just wonder does
that act work in New York City. And now I
(27:57):
will say this, Me and me and I know Ag,
we had the same agent. I know him pretty well.
He's a good man, that's first and foremost. He's a
good man, and he's a players he's a player's coach.
So we've talked about this evolution of what's best for
(28:20):
a team, and I would say the best example of
what I would think the best two examples would be
the team he left and Dan Campbell and the team
in Houston under Demico Ryans. I think that those two
would serve as great examples of what Aaron Glenn will
represent to this New York Jets team. I do believe
(28:44):
that there is a relatability to him because of him
being a former player and being a good former player,
not just a former player like that, oh you like.
Aaron Glenn was a baller and people respect his career
and people respect his body of work. And I believe
that his his understanding of the game and his understanding
(29:06):
of players, the people in the locker room. I think
that will go a long way, Jonas, I really do.
I think that this New York Jets team, they have
enough talent that if they were to have a guy
that they believe in and listen, we could say, Oh,
Robert Sala or e're up next, you know who was
(29:29):
a former linebacker and played for the Niners and was
in the league as well. He was an interroom.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
You know.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
I don't know it worked out for my guy, you know,
ap he got an opportunity to coach another year. Didn't
work out for euroup next. Yeah, But I just think
that Aaron Glenn in this scenario will have the type
of buy in and impact from those players that culturally speaking,
even in Washington. That's a good example too. Dan Quinn,
(30:00):
former player, didn't play as high level as as an
Aaron Glenn or a Demico Ryans or Dan Campbell, but
nonetheless that respect factor that they have for Dan Quinn
that comes from him being a former player.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
I think the part that and I understand Aaron Glenn's
approach because the Dan Campbell effect, and it works for
Dan Campbell and Aaron Glenn was a really good player
and and had.
Speaker 3 (30:30):
Good years with the Jets.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
The part that when he says, you know our goal
is to win, and to win now, okay, well what's
the planet quarterback? Because that's like a big issue that
they've had for a long time.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
And I just don't know.
Speaker 1 (30:46):
You're not bringing Sam Darnold back, all right, because that
would be an admission that, well, we butchered that pretty good.
You're not bringing him back. Jared Goff's not going to
be not gonna end up with the Jets. So what
is the plan at quarterback?
Speaker 3 (31:00):
Because don't think for two seconds they're not going to
get a Sam Donald or matt Stafford. They drafted Donald
and they're gonna like these all these years. They might
be different. It might be different. Now. I think Sam
Darnald would have a saying and here's what you got it,
and you could be right. So it could be maybe
a Kirk Cousins, it could be a Matthew Stafford. They're
(31:23):
going to get somebody. The only two they're going to
get somebody.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
The only two options better than Rogers would be a
Stafford or a Sam Donald.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
And I don't see them getting either.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
And so you've basically, and maybe this is why players
have gotten upset and Quentinnin Williams is the guy who
went to social media and said, great, looks like I'm
in for another rebuild year. Like that's the feeling for
the players there, like we just well you brought in
a new coach. Yeah, well and for what it was
after the news of Rogers being all.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
Due moving on, and you got to be winning to
have a rebuild. You got to be coming off of
winning to have a what you mean rebuild? But the
you gotta build the.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
Fact that those guys in the locker room are like, okay,
so now we're going to be worse at quarterbacks?
Speaker 3 (32:05):
Sweet fun year. You gotta build. I just there's no rebuild.
It's not built yet. So I think that you have
to approach things from an awareness factor. You got to
be aware of what you are and that team is
not a good team right now, and you got to
be aware of that. So you're not rebuilding from what
(32:27):
are they rebuilding from? They didn't win a Super Bowl
and now it's cap hell and you had to get
rid of guys or this, that and the other. No,
you're working to build something, and I think you made
it harder on yourself when you got less than a quarterback.
Sometimes you got audition by subtraction, and you know, sometimes
(32:49):
it's just not purely about the talent of the player,
it's about everything else. And I know you'll say, well,
the players like them, the players liked them. Well, I
just think that the other things that are connected to
Aaron Rodgers makes it and I think that's going to
make it difficult for another team to bring them on.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Well, I think that's unfortunate, as you know, is what
it is. As somebody who was featured on Enigma episode
three for Aaron Rodgers, dear friend of mine.
Speaker 3 (33:16):
You know, and none of that would ever happen if
he wasn't that guy that does all this extra stuff.
But that could play against you.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
It is two Pros and a cup of Joe. Here

(35:42):
gotta have a reckoning. We gotta have a moment of reckoning.
I'm gonna say, though, by default, because Q is not here,
that Walt had the better performance. I reserve the right
to not participate in the question. Scaredy cat Ah, that
(36:03):
that is very very like just acted like a real
bitch right now, you know, like a real soft dude.

Speaker 3 (36:17):
He's just going in for the gust though, But you
could still respond and funness to to the to the
question that was asked. I mean, he's not here, so
I just figure, you know what Walt was here. I
already accused him of having a PD violate. Walt was
sleep and he was snoring. Walt's not a member of
this show. He chose not the commute. You know what,
(36:38):
That's fair. So that's why I'm going I'm gonna defend
break Okay, you know what. I'm not going to defend
the situation, but I'm just gonna merely say that I'm
not going to indulge in it because Walt is not
a part of the show.
Speaker 2 (36:51):
There you go.
Speaker 3 (36:52):

(01:18):
on X. He's a co host of the Petros and
Money Show, which you can hear on the Blowtorch AM
five seventy l a sports Fox college football analysts and
our good buddy Petros Papadakis.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Good morning, pe Hello, good morning, old good morning. You
sound awake, You sound alert.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
I got up a little earlier today.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Nice.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
What's going on corect shower?
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Oh that doesn't happen often.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Well, not before the show here, Noka, But I'm up
and I'm ready to rock and roll.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
You sound bright?
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Sort, I'm getting over a cold, but I'm on, Petro.
So what do you? I must say what I know enough?
Anyone I know? Oh?
Speaker 3 (02:01):
No, are you officially fed up or sick of?
Speaker 2 (02:06):
You?
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Love this song?
Speaker 2 (02:07):
No?
Speaker 1 (02:08):
The uh, the the Luca Lakers lebron coverage thus far?
Speaker 3 (02:15):
I mean, are you? Are you officially over?
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Because it does feel like, man, the NBA and ESPN
really need this thing to work.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Yeah, this is a big deal and it's it's going
well right. I mean, that was great drama last night.
You have the guy hit a three and turned to
the bench and scream at him. I mean after they
traded him and poisoned the well on him and said
he was fat and out of shape and unmanageable. I mean,
you want to trade the guy, trade him, but you
didn't have to poison all the all the stuff about
(02:44):
him because your fan base is angry. And the more
and more it kind of sort of perpetuates itself. And
we see what Lebron and Luke on the Lakers, and
are they this good? I mean in the moment they are,
and they were great against Denver. They hadn't been able
to win specifically there in a long time. Denver had
(03:04):
had their number. And from what all the basketball experts
type say, and this Breckless coverage that you are referring to,
I guess JJ Reddick did a great job sending different
defenders at Djokich and had him confused. I mean, there's
always an adjustment to an adjustment, and that's why we
talk about seven game series. But they need desperately for
(03:27):
the Lakers and the Lebron and Luca thing and the
short term to work, and they needed to work in
the long term. And the more and more you see
it kind of play out, the more and more you
think like, Wow, there's no way that Rob Polinka and
Nico Harrison did this deal for a month under the
cover of night, with no leaks or anything like that.
(03:51):
Call me a conspiracy theorist, call me whatever you want.
This was orchestrated by the NBA as a hail Mary
to save the NBA in twenty twenty five because of
the lack of interest, which is prevalent and something people
are finally discussing. I mean, they could have been discussing
this for four or five years as the NBA has
(04:11):
been dropping off, but suddenly it's okay to discuss it
and admit that the end. I mean, back three years ago,
if you said, man, people aren't watching the NBA like
they used to. Used to get screamed down and they
say you were disinformation and you don't understand. People get
the games streaming, they watch on Twitter, and you don't understand,
you know, And it's like, Okay, I don't understand. I'm
(04:32):
just looking at these NFL and college football ratings compared
to the shut up you don't understand, you know. It's like, well,
I live in LA and it kind of seems like
the Dodgers have gone into the Lakers house like those
Chileans with Joe Burrow and stashed their change. Damn, you
don't understand, you don't get it. You don't know about
modern media. So then it's like that was three years ago,
(04:54):
and now all of a sudden, it's okay to admit
that the NBA's faltering. What changed? What changed? Maybe some
things politically, you know. So it's interesting that we're able
to finally admit that the NBA was struggling, and then
we're supposed to act like this Laker Dallas Mavericks trade
of the century. That makes no sense for Dallas, especially
(05:16):
after Anthony Davis blue Is Groin and literally flamed up
their fan base like a Sioux fle and in a
bad way. And I'm supposed to I'm supposed to somehow
accept that this was done by Rob Polinka, a guy
who can't even have a decent haircut, though he's probably
spend seven hundred dollars on it. I mean, it just
(05:37):
doesn't make sense. So it's great, it's something to talk
about this time of year. It's it's a wonderful thing.
I mean, it's February or the Lakers going to ride
this to an NBA championship. Hell, who knows. I don't
think so. But they looked good last night, and they've
looked good throughout since Luca's got back into shape, and
(05:59):
I mean he looks a lot better. He looks skinnier
after the few weeks he's been here, just because I
think his calves aren't blown out like they were ever
since Christmas Day. But I'm not against it. I just
am very skeptical of as to how it happened.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
Lebron looks like he's accepted the challenge of it, though, right,
wouldn't you say that you see a more energetic, more
I don't know, assertive Lebron James.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
I mean, well, who's got the biggest rabbit ears in sports?
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Is it Lebron?
Speaker 2 (06:32):
And is people right? People like if you say and
him right? So if you say something about Bronnie and
you're Steven A. Smith, I don't know if it happens.
If you're LeVar Arrington, it doesn't happen. If you're Petros Papanek,
it happens. If you're calling Cowherd. You know, if you
say something about them, Rich Paul or one of his
people call you. I mean it happened with steven A
(06:53):
when he went after Bronni and then they called him,
and then he went after them for calling him and
called him soft. Maybe they won't call him back, but
the point is he's got people and feelers everywhere. When
Lebron came to LA he brought two reporters with him.
Uh the woman on TV, I don't I forget her
name and uh mcminnimon. Uh they I mean, he literally
(07:15):
has embedded people working propaganda for him wherever he goes.
And no one says, wow, this is kind of weird. No,
they just accept it. And it comes with the Lebron contingency,
including and I'm not kidding a DJ that the Lakers
have to hire. Wait what Yeah, Lebron's DJ works at
the Laker facility.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
He's got his own DJ, correct. I mean, every superhero
has to have a great theme song. I mean that,
and I'm gonna get you Sucker keenan Ivory Way and
those guys they made sure you knew that everything.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Lebron's song though, that terrible one he did with two chains.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
I don't know, I think two changs. No, that's that's Jello. Yeah,
that's a bang. I mean, if you listen to Hour too.
The opening song for Hour two, you'll hear some two Chains.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
And remember Lebron did that song when it was two
Chain song where he was trying to do like be
a producer. Remember that when Lebron did that we have a.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
Can you get that a Lebron two Chains?
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Well it wasn't. I don't even know if the song
would be offensive or anything. I mean, obviously two Chains
is a professional musician. But but like there was like
this weird propagand this was years ago, I think it was.
There was this weird propaganda video of him like producing
in the studio with two change. Of course, he was
throwing his fists like when the beat dropped.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
He does no music though, oh who doesn't.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
By the way, I'm just curious if you're finished, like
winner of the what's going to be? My name is
two Chains? Which ones didn't make it? Like, I'd love
to know what was he thinking about that?
Speaker 2 (08:54):
He said, now you know we just lost Project Pat.
Did he heard about it? But I think so? I mean,
you'll correct me if I'm wrong. But Project Pat, who
was a Southern rapper, he became a pastor. He's saying,
chicken head, chicken head, did you need some guns? Some
thunder was Project Pat?
Speaker 3 (09:15):
Was he three six Mafia? But he's connected to them though? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (09:18):
No, Project Pat had chicken bald head, scaley watt he
got no hair in back. Yeah, yeah, and he died
chicken chicken wop wop chicken head. Now that is a song.
I had a DJ.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
He's still here. He's still here.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
If I had a song, then that's how I would
enter with.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
He became like a Now he's like a pastor.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Oh you sure, Dad? In my face it been on
a yack. That's if I had a.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
D is actually the older brother, the Juicy J. And
that's his connection to three six Mafia. Who JUICYJ is
a big time producer and you know rapper for you
know three six months.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Tell Joe, Tell Joe.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
I knew that today, Like I found that out just now. Yeah,
I did not know that. There you go, Well it.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Is you to answer your question, LeVar. I think Lebron
knows that everybody's waiting to see how he'll react. I
don't think Lebron is able to emotionally. I don't know.
I mean just a it's a very very outside opinion
of somebody that I don't know, but just given the history,
(10:33):
I don't know if Lebron will be able to emotionally
maintain if things go a little sideways. He seems to
be pretty reactionary to this kind of thing, and every
superstar teammate's ever had, he's ended up usually cutting their
throat off, so, you know, like a pez dispenser. So
so we'll see how it plays out. But it's certainly
a great story in the city right now. I try
(10:55):
not to be a prisoner of the moment. Ever since
I proclaimed Marquise Lee to be the greatest football player
I've ever seen, I stopped.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
I stopped being a receiver potential. Yeah, no, the rapper,
that's to change his real name. So get him on
X at the op. Petros Papadicas with us here on
Fox Sports Radio. Hey, what do you make of the
Matthew Stafford situation with the Rams, because I I can
(11:23):
understand that. Hey, listen, you know I want to be
paid my worth. I get all that.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
I thought. I listened to your actually rant, I guess
you would call it or whatever piece they cut and
tweeted it from your weekend show, Jonas, Thanks, did you
know LeVar that Jonas has a weekend show where he
just waxes poetically without anybody interrupting him.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
I mean, yeah about that, you know, And I get
to drive a show on the weekend right before he
comes on. So it's like, condy, we we roll reverse.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
It's the undercard of the Jonas Knox ship here, LeVar
Company on there.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Actually we're the main event in your extra credit it
it's like you want some bonus time, We're.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Going to change, is going to play, and then there's
gonna be an after hours da. I just don't.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
I don't understand why I can't. It feels like Matthew
Stafford is really like tightening the screws on. I've got
to get every dollar out of my career as opposed
to Yeah, I feel great, it's a great spot to
be in. Why not work with them? Maybe you take
a little bit of a discount with the Rams, but
(12:31):
you're closer to a super Bowl yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
I mean, look, I can't manage anything, so it's hard
for me to judge. So when you start talking about
what's the difference between fifty million and sixty million dollars
or something, I mean it's lost on many of us, right,
But when you're talking about generational wealth and how your
kids kids are going to feel your wealth, uh like
(12:56):
Matt Stafford's are. Maybe they manage it different that being
said as a qualifier, what you said made a lot
of sense to me. I mean, this guy, he was
the number one pick back with the number one pick,
really got paid right before they had a different structure
for rookies. They paid him in Detroit, and they sent
(13:17):
him where he wanted to go to the rams, and
what have they done with Detroit afterwards? They've acted like
Detroit was terrible, that their time in Detroit was horrible.
The city embraced him and his family, and they've turned
around basically and defecated on the city of Detroit. I mean,
haven't they. I mean, you asked the people in Detroit,
(13:39):
and they gave him everything he wanted, the money, the trade,
everything he wanted. He comes out to La he has success.
They went a Super Bowl. I mean, you can't argue
with that, They've made the playoffs, He's performed at a
high level. He's a tough guy, seems like a great leader.
They've overlooked the fact that his wife is a certifiable nightmare.
(14:02):
I don't think anybody on the team, in the building
or on the periphery would argue that if she just
seems like a real negative to deal with, as far
as if you even have to deal with one of
your player's spouses, I mean, unbelievable what they put up
with her and what goes public about the stupid thing
(14:22):
she says. I think you're right, Jonas, I think that,
But I think that there's probably an element of hubris
involved on both sides, because Stafford's sitting here saying, you
think you can do this without me McVeigh Eugenius and
he's like, yeah, I did it with Jared Goff, I'll
do it with me, And all these Shanahan guys will
(14:45):
use Brock Purdy or Sam Darnold or anybody we can
and find a way to have success. And they have
that kind of feeling or that vibe within the building.
I think McVeigh has that kind of confidence, and maybe
they've reached kind of an egotistical impasse when it comes
to this. I'd love to see him shipped to Cleveland
(15:07):
or something so Brady Brady can talk about how Kelly
will be embraced in that beautiful town. But I mean
it'll be interesting.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
They rock a little differently though in the Midwest, though,
you know, they're not as you know, passive aggressive as well.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
That's how they treated him in Detroit.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
Yeah, that's true, you.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Know, I mean, that's what he did. That's a Midwest town.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
Maybe they forgot about how it was in Detroit. Maybe
that's why the podcast she said.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
She said on the podcast, LeVar, I love an adventure. Hey,
do you think here's Lake Erie and some scuba gear.
Here's the Indiana Jones song, have some Fun.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Do you think they would have won that Super Bowl
with Jared Goff? Because I do.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
I don't know. Maybe, I mean Jared Goff, there was
weird stuff like, look, I didn't like Jared Goff coming
out of college. I didn't like the air raid system
he came out of He barely had the muscles and
his ass and legs to get under center and drop back.
And he kind of didn't. I mean, he looked like
a baby giraffe when he first started in the NFL.
(16:12):
But I mean he developed into a very good, serviceable quarterback.
Uh And and he's been great in Detroit. You just
can't argue that. And my god, that beautiful fiance. She's
so surprised about the way she looks, just that look
on her face, like wow, look at these what and
uh oh a lovely guy? So I got her too.
(16:34):
She's pretty cool. She can't believe it. She's like, I'm
a super pretty He's like, I'm as surprised as you are.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
That's kind of funny. Hey, where did that come from?
Speaker 2 (16:46):
I'm uh, I think that. Yeah, maybe they could have
won that super Bowl with golf, but you know there
is that vibe that you know, you need that guy
to help you make that one play, that back, to
make that one throw, or make that one decision to
put you over the top. And it's hard to argue
that Matthew Stafford wasn't that guy in the moment for
(17:09):
the Rams. Uh. If they ship him, it'll be because
the Rams are confident that they can do it with
somebody else, and he's probably a little too interested in
squeezing every penny out of his football career. Like you said,
but it's hard to judge somebody on how much money
they think they need. Uh. When it's that much, I
don't I don't know. I'd buy all the g I
Joe guys if I were him, Oh, man, I'd have
(17:33):
the aircraft carrier.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
What direction do you think they should go in if
they if they were to part ways, do you think
Aaron Rodgers will.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
I want Aaron rod like I want a terrible insane
story in the city.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
Yes, yes, yes, that's a terrible and insane story if
Aaron Rodgers comes here.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Potentially, right, I mean he's going to be He's going
to be in the media capital of the world, or
the second biggest media capital of the world. He was
an the media capitol last year. And presumably you'd like
to think that the Rams are better run than the
the the Jets, right, that's a bit of a general consensus. Yes,
and maybe the Raiders too, which would be close enough.
(18:14):
I mean, the Raiders have more popularity in LA in
most circles, and the Rams and the Chargers combined. So
if he goes to Las Vegas, that would be interesting too.
Sam Darnald is is a great story. Even though he
didn't play for Pete Carroll, people have that timeline all
screwed up. He played for Clay Helton, so he was
two coaches removed, and Clay Hilton had nothing to do
(18:36):
with Pete Carroll. They didn't cross over, but the Trojans, right, Yeah,
So that would be interesting to see Donald in town
or in Vegas.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
You know, Petro.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
Some would say the last successful USC head coach Clay Helton,
you know, some would say that.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
Yeah, you could say that. I mean, well, I mean
the other Yeah, the other guy lost in a Cotton
Bowl to to Tulane, to Willy Fritz.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
He had a Heisman Trophy winner and a number one overall.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Draft, but those are individual awards.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
And a pretty successful Yeah, is.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
The Louisville coach still the guy that coached LeVar Lamar Jackson.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Thank you for doing that, by the way, because it
never happens that way, Petros, So thank you get called
thank you. I get called Lamar at least twice a day.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Now. That's too revenge of the nerds for me to
call it.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
And that's our era. So that's that.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
It hits me a little with the floppy spears.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
With the floppy javelin. It used to hit me bad
if somebody made a mistake and called me Lamar back
in the day. I don't take as much offense because
I know who they're referencing now, and as you know,
it is what it is.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
There's no doubt Lincoln Riley. Lincoln Riley brought in a
very special generational talent in Caleb Williams to USC. He
didn't do a great job relating to the area, but
neither has Lincoln. And and even with Caleb Williams, they
fell off a table, they did. I mean they didn't
go off like a long embankment or like a slow
(20:07):
diagonal decline. They literally fell off a table in the
last three years. So yeah, and Clay, but but so
did Clay Helton. I mean, well, the one thing you
can say about Clay Helton is they beat that and
State team and the Rose Bowl with Darnold, and there
was a great game back and forth, barking on the tea, yeah,
(20:28):
all of those things. So it was a great game
that people remember and you think, oh god, Clay Helton
was the coach, and then nationally you don't realize that
they were like five hundred every year. But but yeah,
us he is in desperate need of of of some
kind of turnaround, and I don't know if it's coming
well now when you're under a ninety million dollar buyout.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Maybe Stafford, maybe Stafford could.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
Help him out. That's true. Stafford's trying to get more.
He's got a few trying to get none to him.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Listen, I just wonder if they've taken most of that
money he's made. He's made three sixty in his career,
and I wonder if you know a lot of that's
gone towards the production of the Missus podcast.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
So you're hateful for you how much just.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
A cost for a microphone and like a circle light,
you know.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
I mean, look hateful for it.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Man, it's not like to call her daddy podcast, you know,
or it's costs a bunch of money.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
I mean, maybe it is, call her daddy.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
I wanted to make my Jedius side dated. The imagine
all the people she'd have to date to make them
jealous in Las Vegas? Oh wow, next thing, you know,
you're on a date with T T Boy?
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Oh wow?
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Yeah, T T Boy? Oh what y'all know about T
T Boy?
Speaker 3 (21:43):
I think Cleveland would be interesting for them. I'm sure
she'll keep it.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
I think that they deserve Cleveland, and Cleveland deserves that
can't be any worse than the massage table guy they
paid like. Oh, I mean, hey, if you're justin Tucker,
When do you stop going to the high end places?
All right, let's talk about maybe are you want massage?
Isn't the place to ask for your happy baby or
(22:10):
whatever it is?
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Yeah, Onyce, you do the decent thing and go to
some place where they can keep a secret.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Yeah, listen, I'm not trying to be a hater because
I love Maryland. But we all know Baltimore is different
than Maryland. It's like a whole different place. You're in Baltimore.
What's different about it? You're in Baltimore, like there are
plenty of opportunities to be on the low and and
have that.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
You're saying that there's like a knuckle shuffle.
Speaker 3 (22:37):
I just don't want to, but.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
There's like Bodega's.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Because I am a d m V guy, I'm not
a Baltimore guy. I don't claim Baltimore. I'm a DMV guy,
claim DC, Maryland, Virginia. But if Maryland is different from Baltimore,
if you understand DMV politics and Baltimore politics, you know
it's a Beltway thing. Anyway. I'm just saying I've been
to balder More quite a few times, and and people
(23:03):
who know about Baltimore, you know, some people know it
through the wire, and you know, I'll.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
Tell you what. It's just a kicker. And he was
too stiff to find a real place.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
I just, I just I couldn't have been hard to
find one of those places that wouldn't have been high
profile and paying what you would probably paid in that
salon that you went to.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
He should have been able to find a comfortable place
to do whatever it is he liked to do in
the shadows without us discussing it on that.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
I mean most likely even at his home. You need
a neon light, better place than than if you're paying
for your service in Baltimore, like Owen's Mills or wherever
it is you want to go. It's really easy a
neon light with a foot in the window and open
you're not sure where the front door is, shady spot, yeah,
(23:53):
open twenty four hours and rid light.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
I had a friend who was at a place in
Redondo once and uh, he got raided and he hid
under the table and slid out the back door.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
Oh wow, and made it and like really made it.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Yeah. And imagine like you're driving down the street a
little later by the Fat Burger, like, hey, all.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Right, that ball look at those scumbags.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Looks like they're rounding up the usual suspects here.
Speaker 3 (24:23):
That didn't happen to be you, was it?
Speaker 2 (24:24):
You said?
Speaker 3 (24:25):
Okay, all right, okay, just making since.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
I broke my foot, I don't want anybody touching.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
He is uh the old peon x Petross papadagas the

Speaker 3 (24:52):

Speaker 3 (24:58):
So coming up next to you, which out of wall please?
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (25:02):
Wal weal is man. Well he's a piece of work.
Bro wellt's got a member's card, he flashes at the
front door.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
He is a piece of work, all right, coming up
next here from the Tirak dot com studios. Apparently not
everybody was thrilled with one move made by a team
in the NFL. We'll get into that for you here.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
On FSR be sure to catch live editions of Two
Pros and a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar
Arrington and Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern three
am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3 (25:36):
We are going to have Lee's left over right here.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
That'll be yours in about twelve minutes from now, Let's
listen to Aaron Glenn, the coach of the New York Jets,
who discussed the fact that apparently there were some players
that were not happy with the Jets decision to move
on from one.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
Aaron Rodgers, let's take a listen.
Speaker 5 (25:58):
I understand the reaction of the players, but I would
say this, Every decision that men moves make is to
win and to win now, so I understand it.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
But again, listen, it's not gonna be the last decision
I make, right. It's not that it's gonna.
Speaker 5 (26:13):
Upset some people. That's okay, right, But as me and
we talk about it, we make sure we keep it
in the house that we're going to continue to do
all right.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Well, if you want to keep familiar, yeah, if you
want to keep things in house, probably not the best
organization to be with. If that's the case because that
doesn't happen there. But it has a familiar tone to it, right, yeah, yeah, yeah,
thats a familiar tone. And I wonder if if it
has the opportunity to work in that market. You know,
(26:40):
Detroit is a tough, hard nosed market, but it's Detroit.
And I think that when you look at and when
I say it's Detroit, it's not like, oh, well it's
Detroit like something like that, Like that's derogatory. What I
mean by saying it's Detroit. It's not as big a
market as New York City. So if you go into
(27:02):
Detroit and you run it up the you know, the
cultural deal, you you get out into the media and
into the community.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
You're talking about a community that will embrace something that
kind of matches who they are. They're tough, they're hard knows,
their mill workers, lunch pel hard hat people. That's Detroit.
New York is a different animal. Now. While I will
say Aaron Glenn played for the Jets, he knows, he
(27:33):
knows the confines, He's familiar with the place, and it's
interesting that he's you can hear the same type of
energy that we hear Dan Campbell speak with it's that
same type of you know, moxie and that grit and
what it is that he's saying. I just wonder does
that act work in New York City. And now I
(27:57):
will say this, Me and me and I know Ag,
we had the same agent. I know him pretty well.
He's a good man, that's first and foremost. He's a
good man, and he's a players he's a player's coach.
So we've talked about this evolution of what's best for
(28:20):
a team, and I would say the best example of
what I would think the best two examples would be
the team he left and Dan Campbell and the team
in Houston under Demico Ryans. I think that those two
would serve as great examples of what Aaron Glenn will
represent to this New York Jets team. I do believe
(28:44):
that there is a relatability to him because of him
being a former player and being a good former player,
not just a former player like that, oh you like.
Aaron Glenn was a baller and people respect his career
and people respect his body of work. And I believe
that his his understanding of the game and his understanding
(29:06):
of players, the people in the locker room. I think
that will go a long way, Jonas, I really do.
I think that this New York Jets team, they have
enough talent that if they were to have a guy
that they believe in and listen, we could say, Oh,
Robert Sala or e're up next, you know who was
(29:29):
a former linebacker and played for the Niners and was
in the league as well. He was an interroom.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
You know.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
I don't know it worked out for my guy, you know,
ap he got an opportunity to coach another year. Didn't
work out for euroup next. Yeah, But I just think
that Aaron Glenn in this scenario will have the type
of buy in and impact from those players that culturally speaking,
even in Washington. That's a good example too. Dan Quinn,
(30:00):
former player, didn't play as high level as as an
Aaron Glenn or a Demico Ryans or Dan Campbell, but
nonetheless that respect factor that they have for Dan Quinn
that comes from him being a former player.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
I think the part that and I understand Aaron Glenn's
approach because the Dan Campbell effect, and it works for
Dan Campbell and Aaron Glenn was a really good player
and and had.
Speaker 3 (30:30):
Good years with the Jets.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
The part that when he says, you know our goal
is to win, and to win now, okay, well what's
the planet quarterback? Because that's like a big issue that
they've had for a long time.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
And I just don't know.
Speaker 1 (30:46):
You're not bringing Sam Darnold back, all right, because that
would be an admission that, well, we butchered that pretty good.
You're not bringing him back. Jared Goff's not going to
be not gonna end up with the Jets. So what
is the plan at quarterback?
Speaker 3 (31:00):
Because don't think for two seconds they're not going to
get a Sam Donald or matt Stafford. They drafted Donald
and they're gonna like these all these years. They might
be different. It might be different. Now. I think Sam
Darnald would have a saying and here's what you got it,
and you could be right. So it could be maybe
a Kirk Cousins, it could be a Matthew Stafford. They're
(31:23):
going to get somebody. The only two they're going to
get somebody.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
The only two options better than Rogers would be a
Stafford or a Sam Donald.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
And I don't see them getting either.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
And so you've basically, and maybe this is why players
have gotten upset and Quentinnin Williams is the guy who
went to social media and said, great, looks like I'm
in for another rebuild year. Like that's the feeling for
the players there, like we just well you brought in
a new coach. Yeah, well and for what it was
after the news of Rogers being all.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
Due moving on, and you got to be winning to
have a rebuild. You got to be coming off of
winning to have a what you mean rebuild? But the
you gotta build the.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
Fact that those guys in the locker room are like, okay,
so now we're going to be worse at quarterbacks?
Speaker 3 (32:05):
Sweet fun year. You gotta build. I just there's no rebuild.
It's not built yet. So I think that you have
to approach things from an awareness factor. You got to
be aware of what you are and that team is
not a good team right now, and you got to
be aware of that. So you're not rebuilding from what
(32:27):
are they rebuilding from? They didn't win a Super Bowl
and now it's cap hell and you had to get
rid of guys or this, that and the other. No,
you're working to build something, and I think you made
it harder on yourself when you got less than a quarterback.
Sometimes you got audition by subtraction, and you know, sometimes
(32:49):
it's just not purely about the talent of the player,
it's about everything else. And I know you'll say, well,
the players like them, the players liked them. Well, I
just think that the other things that are connected to
Aaron Rodgers makes it and I think that's going to
make it difficult for another team to bring them on.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Well, I think that's unfortunate, as you know, is what
it is. As somebody who was featured on Enigma episode
three for Aaron Rodgers, dear friend of mine.
Speaker 3 (33:16):
You know, and none of that would ever happen if
he wasn't that guy that does all this extra stuff.
But that could play against you.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
It is two Pros and a cup of Joe. Here
on Fox Sports Radio, LeVar Ery Jonas knocks with you.

Speaker 1 (34:53):
Lee, I apologize. Marjie showed be a family of panda
bears on his phone.

Uh huh, go ahead, Lee, Lee, you know they was
just on the news playing around in the zoo, giant Pandace.
I'm sure you do.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
We all what we got, Lee.
Speaker 3 (35:20):
We had a better performance today, all right, Walt or
Brady Quinn? Oh dang god. Uh well, you know you're
gonna have to answer for this tomorrow. At least somebody
showed up eight these eight these please, we gotta we
(35:42):
gotta have a reckoning. We gotta have a moment of reckoning.
I'm gonna say, though, by default, because Q is not here,
that Walt had the better performance. I reserve the right
to not participate in the question. Scaredy cat Ah, that
(36:03):
that is very very like just acted like a real
bitch right now, you know, like a real soft dude.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
Just now.
Speaker 3 (36:10):
I'm not gonna listen.
Speaker 1 (36:11):
I'm not gonna air out one of our partners here
on the show is air which one.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
He's just going in for the gust though, But you
could still respond and funness to to the to the
question that was asked. I mean, he's not here, so
I just figure, you know what Walt was here. I
already accused him of having a PD violate. Walt was
sleep and he was snoring. Walt's not a member of
this show. He chose not the commute. You know what,
(36:38):
That's fair. So that's why I'm going I'm gonna defend
break Okay, you know what. I'm not going to defend
the situation, but I'm just gonna merely say that I'm
not going to indulge in it because Walt is not
a part of the show.
Speaker 2 (36:51):
There you go.
Speaker 3 (36:52):
I like that, all right, movie, guys have spent a
long time since I've brought up these kind of stories.
