Speaker 3 (01:36):
Good morning, Hello, hi pe, Hello, hello hello.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
So how biggest takeaway for you from the epic Dodgers
World Series win? That looked like it was not going
to go the way of the Dodgers several times. But
what was your big takeaway following back to back World
Series championships for your team, the La Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
I guess all the hyperbole right.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Everybody in town was pretty locked in to what was
going on. And the Dodgers do really seem like the
jewel of Los Angeles, and they kind of have been
for a long time, doing millions and millions of fans
every year, even when Frank McCord owned him. There was
one year there though that the fans kind of rejected him,
(02:23):
and MLB removed the owner, and then this guy Mark
Walter took over and ever since that happened, the investment
back in the team from the money they make is astronomical,
and it seems like they do it correctly. I mean,
there's lots of teams that spent a lot of money,
(02:44):
but the Dodgers seemed to be able to do it
with the right people. And I mean, I guess what
you saw in the World Series was just how small
the margins are for victory in between victory and defeat,
and it was pretty special. It's hard to have perspective
(03:04):
because you see an eighteen inning game, you see a
guy go nine innings and then pitch the very next day. Obviously,
what Shotani does nobody does. Nobody's done in many, many years, decades,
one hundred years, So it's hard to kind of have
perspective on what you're watching. But it's certainly spectacular and
(03:26):
something to celebrate in the city.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
So that's my takeaway.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
I mean, you drive home, you know what it's like
at night, Jonas you see in your neighborhood everybody's got
the game on or people are having gatherings to watch
the game, so every house, yeah, game on. So it
sort of feels like, you know, the day after Christmas,
now that it's all over. But it was a heck
of a run again, and now they're going to run
(03:53):
back a team of a bunch of thirty somethings because
what else can they do. I mean, a lot of
these guys are under content till like twenty sixty, so
it'll be interesting to see how things go down to stretch.
But it feels as if they just push all the
right buttons because they have great leadership in the front
office and the obviously Dave Roberts, who's one of the
(04:16):
most successful managers of all time now, and then you
have Freddie Freeman, Shoeo, Todi, Mookie Bats, guys like that,
and and a lot of these Japanese players, well, the
two Roki Sasaki, the young guy who and Roki Sasaki.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Okay, he was uh TV no, he's like a no,
that's Roku.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
Oh oh, oh my bad.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
He's a starter, but they made him a closer at
the end of the year, and then Yamamoto, who was spectacular.
It's a it's been a good ride for the station
and for everybody in La that's the truth.
Speaker 5 (04:54):
That's awesome, man.
Speaker 6 (04:55):
Well, obviously happy for you, happy for the Dodgers winning
back to back. Do you have a look at this
series and kind of wonder how at times people kind
of talked about it like it was like David versus Goliath,
and I'm like, hold on, the Blue Jays won more
games of the regular season, they had like the fifth
highest payroll. It wasn't like there was, you know, that
wide of a gap. It's not like they're playing the
Pirates or something.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
Yeah, I think it's because the players aren't as recognizable.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
They're up there in Canada.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Their style was super scrappy and they had a very
methodical way of approaching the Dodgers, which was very difficult
for the Dodgers to overcome. But it is interesting the
weird narrative that the Blue Jays were somehow the better
team throughout the series.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
I mean, you might be able to.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Say that in a football game where everything goes wrong
or a hoops game, but a seven game Major League
Baseball series where you had an opportunity to put them
away like three or four times and you didn't do it,
I mean that's that that doesn't seem like it's a
really winning sort of storyline.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
But that's just me, Petros. I'm curious. I was. I
was interviewing Mac Brown the other day and oh yeah,
oh man, what an amazing what an amazing dude. Man,
Like it got so good that I had like tears
in my eyes talking to him about some of the
topics that that we discussed. And one of the deals was,
(06:21):
you know, the National championship game against that the Bush
Push team. Uh sorry, Brady, Uh, but I mean the
things that he talked about and just the you know,
superlatives he used to talk about USC. Was was was
football here at the height of its popularity in some
(06:42):
aspects with those teams? Or is it overstated? And one
way or the other. Is there any chance for football
college football? I guess more in particular, is it any
chance for it to gain more momentum? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (06:59):
Well, well I think that when USC is consistently great
like they were in those days, and the Bush Push
team that we are always talking about, I mean they
lost the championship. That's one thing a lot of people forget.
Another thing that people forget is after that notre name game,
they didn't they scuffled as the year went on. I
(07:24):
mean at the end of the year, I did a
Fresno State game where Fresno State should have beat them
if it wasn't for a pick six that the quarterback
threw and they were in the coliseum and Fresno State
put up like forty you know, people started to put
up points.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
I remember that game.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Yeah, it's the most watch game in the history of
FSN back when we used to be on there. So
people kind of, you know, they lose perspective the team
the year before was really the most dominant team.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
But you're right, college football is not.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
As popular in town, and you could point to the
fact that you had he hasn't been consistent. You could
say that that killed West Coast football in a lot
of ways. I mean, certainly Oregon and Washington are doing fine,
but you could make that argument.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
But it's not just that.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
I think that it's the Chargers and the Rams being
in town as well. I mean, back then USC was
you could legitimately say if you lived here in that
time and were covering sports, and I.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Was very much doing both.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Those guys were bigger than Kobe Linard and Bush at
the time. I mean, they were the Be's knees all
over the country and in town, and I think you
see that. I mean, USC has so much influence and
so many tendrils throughout the area that when they activate
(08:50):
and they're really good and people believe in the coach
and all that they have, the city kind of open
up for them. Because movie producers, politicians, judges, all kinds
of people, owners of giant shopping centers, they're USC people.
(09:11):
So you see, if the football team is consistently good,
you start to see that happen very rapidly. But they've
not been consistently good in decades now, so you haven't
seen it. You just haven't seen it. But I think
if they're good and they're consistent and dominant, that is
I believe what you would see again. And maybe down
(09:35):
the stretch this team has a chance to get a foothold.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
I'm not sure. I don't have that much faith in.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Their ability to beat Oregon and get into college football Playoff,
which would certainly excite some people, but they'd have to
be pretty dominant to sort of recreate those days.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
I remember going to Washington. This is when Tyrone Willingham
was at Washington, a Washington at USC game, him at
the Coliseum when those guys are still playing there and
and you had girls taking their tops off like it
was wild.
Speaker 7 (10:09):
It was.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
It was a really wild seed and those guys were
because that was at the point to where you know,
the the Shaq Kobe Lakers had disbanded and Shaq went
on to Miami at that time, and so there really
wasn't there, you know, there wasn't an NFL presence. It
really was usc like they were rock stars in this town.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
Yeah, and you know you could say Liner and Bush.
But after that they had Guy Sanchez, John David Booty.
I mean they had They were not championship teams, they
were Rose Bowl winning teams, but they were still still
pretty good. In two thousand and nine was Carol's last year.
They lost a few games and played in an Emerald
(10:49):
Nut Bowl, and then he was he was gone to Theattle.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Yeah, and then he was gone to the good. Say,
what depends on you know, what kind of level of
salt you want on them?
Speaker 4 (11:02):
Yeahs are salty sometimes.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
But you you you you remember, I have a good
mac brown story. What's the back brown story? The mac brown?
I have a good mac Brown, let's hear it. I
was doing a game. I'd never been outside the Pac
twelve really for years and years or Pac ten. And
they put me on a Missouri game, Missouri Texas and
(11:30):
it was Mac Brown versus what was that, Gary Pinkel
and it was a good game, and I remember a
guy got hurt, Josie badly hurt a running back, and
I was a sideline guy and it was right before
the half, so I was sort of displaced over there
checking out the injury. When I was supposed to interview
(11:51):
Mac Brown going into the tunnel on TV, and I
was out of place, and I looked at the clock
and it hit Zeros and I kind of panic, like
I'm gonna have to sprint across the field or not
get the interview or I'm not sure, and I'm looking
all around and freaked out, and next thing you know,
(12:11):
he's just standing right next to me. He just he
came over and found me on the other side of
the field from where he was supposed to be.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
He was just right there.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
He was like and I didn't ever, I never met
Mac Brown or anything like that, and he.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Goes hello, Petros.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
I was like, oh my god, and they're like, you know,
thirty seconds away or whatever, you know, ten seconds and he's.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Like, how's your daddy?
Speaker 4 (12:33):
And I was like, oh my god, this guy's unreal, Yo, daddy,
you know.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
That he is.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
I mean, I understand what you're saying, LeVar, because some
of those guys when they talk and the way they communicate,
it's just magic. Yeah, and he's he's one of those guys.
I'll never forget that bailing me out after I was displaced.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
And a halftime thing. Hmmm, yeah, man, there's my mac Brown.
That's a it's a great way of explaining. Some guys
just have a special with him. He Mac Brown is,
She's And I had been a fan of him. I
had heard so much about him growing up. He was
in that that you know, that conversation with the greats
like Bobby Bowden and Joe Paterno and those names. But
(13:15):
I had never really met him. And then you know,
we met and we talked. I was like, holy moly,
we was in forty minutes before you know, I just
I had to cut off the interview because we would
have probably went for another hour or so just the
way the conversation was going. But you realize why guys win,
you know, why teams win when they had those those
(13:35):
type of guys, you know, leading the way. But I
thought it was a great story to you know him
the way he set the stage before that game they played,
because Texas almost lost that year as well, and I
think it was A and M that almost knocked them off.
They were losing at halftime, so it both teams had
(13:56):
moments where and I feel like that's a it's a great.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Com Yeah, there was so much attention on USC.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
Yeah, well time.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
Yeah, the Texas kind of crept in there and Vince
Young kind of crept in there and did what they did.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
Yeah. Yeah, and you can keep in mind Reggie Bush
beat Vince Young for the Heisman that year going into
that game. So yeah, it was interesting. Man, it's a
great conversation. But yeah, anyways, I thought it was interesting.
Speaker 6 (14:23):
On the note on SC still outside shot at making
in the playoff if they if they went out, sure,
what do they.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
Have northwester this week on a week night game. That's
that's always a little tricky, but they should win that, right.
Speaker 6 (14:36):
Yeah, it seemed like Lincoln was really frustrated with that
after a night game versus Nebraska having to play on
a short week.
Speaker 5 (14:43):
You seemed to be frustrated with.
Speaker 4 (14:44):
That well track game.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
It's explaining about the schedule doesn't help, you know, I
got to be honest, but it is interesting. I mean
when USC was in the PAC ten and then the
PAC twelve, one of the things they did not do
well was protect USC from themselve right with the scheduling
and stuff. The way you see maybe Ohio State and
Michigan respected by the Big Big ten or Alabama and
(15:10):
the sec LSU stuff like that. I mean, you don't
see those teams playing on a Friday night in Pullman
in October and it would happen to USC all the
time and they would have to navigate that. But I
that'll be tricky. Playing Oregon will be tricky. They they
did show something. I mean, I didn't think I saw
(15:31):
that environment at Nebraska, and I remember the way they
played at the game that you were at Illinois and
the way they played at Notre Dame, and I thought
Nebraska after Nebraska's first drive, I thought Nebraska was gonna
be able to control that game physically, and then USC
kind of stepped up and it didn't happen, and they
knocked out Rayola.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
I believe so.
Speaker 5 (15:50):
If he if he finishes. I don't know that they win,
but you know, you never know.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
Yeah, you never know, and that's the way it played out.
But I don't I don't think they'll be a College
for Ball playoff team, but they certainly are improved from
last year.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
What's the strategy for you? Petros? Now are you sort
of dreading the fact that you're going.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
To have to I dread everything.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Well, I'm saying, you know, now that the Dodger season
is over, and now you've got to maybe Tawny now
you got to deal with that whole circus again.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
Well that's fine, you know.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
I mean, I go back into the world of sports
talk radio or the way that I do it, and
I mean the big story.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
We cover everything and it's not just my show.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
But I mean, the story I did yesterday was the
fact that Boise State basketball, who won twenty six games
last year and is projected to compete for the Mountain
West title, lost to a white team.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Hawaii Pacific, which is literally a strip mall. Hawaii Pacific
University is a strip mall in Honolulu right across from
the water. They took over a strip mall with their
five thousand students. They have eight rows in their basketball
him and so I got into the history of that
university a little bit. You know, stuff like that is
(17:06):
what we go back to. It's you know, it's hard
when you cover something and everybody's really into every moment
and then it's over and you just kind of go
back to what you normally do. But my strategy is
just to go back to what I normally do. I mean,
we'll have college football today and all that, and then
we'll have the hot stove with the baseball.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
And do you think if something and I don't want
this to ever happened, but if something were to happen
to your lizard, have you thought about cloning it?
Speaker 4 (17:33):
No.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
I heard about this with Tom Brady and it's just
another business fan. I mean Tom Brady he hit us
earlier in the year with the flag football in Saudi
Arabia or whatever, and that was a big to do,
a big announcement. This is another business venture for him,
the cloning of your dog. It costs fifty thousand dollars.
(17:57):
So yeah, that is another story that we covered.
Speaker 6 (18:01):
Are you getting to the point where you're like, all right,
does anything he does genuine or is it all like
a business investment behind it.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Well, that's our colleague. I mean, I don't I'm asking
the question.
Speaker 6 (18:12):
Yeah, no, I agree, but like that's part of the
issue with this country is no one can ask questions anymore.
Speaker 5 (18:17):
No, you're a question.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
How dare you ask?
Speaker 3 (18:21):
I don't know him well, but yeah, he seems you know,
whenever somebody's teeth are that white, it's hard to trust him.
You know, Freddy Freeman's the only guy with teeth that
white that you feel like you trust.
Speaker 4 (18:32):
Yeah, those are veneers right on, Freddy, he's got veneers. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
You look at his teeth when he was coming out
and they.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
Have veneers. John, Yeah, I goven ears. Well, I wish
you have an apple now, I can't can't bind into
an apple.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
I wish he had him to where he could close
his mouth though, you knowang.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
Yeah, sometimes you know the way those are put in
and they look like toilet lids. They just become way
too big for your mouth, and it's hard to get
your top lip over him to cover them all the way.
Speaker 4 (18:59):
So you just said it.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Yeah, when you have like a gnarly movie star tan
somebody literally cuts your hair every single day and you
have like teeth that's shone like the sun, and you're
worth billions of dollars or whatever it is. You know,
it's hard to relate to normal people. I don't know
if that's really relatable to tell everybody to spend fifty
(19:20):
thousand dollars to clone their dog, especially in days like today,
you know, these days, it's it's.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Hard to swallow.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
But a lot of Yeah, I mean there's people that
don't live in the world, you know, like like the
rest of us do, and Tom Brady's probably.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
One of them.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Can't you just go to a pet store and get
a new dog for like one hundred bucks or something.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
Or like a rescue I don't know. Yeah, I mean yes,
I mean those are all things you can do. But
apparently you can also get a cloned Like for him, is.
Speaker 6 (19:49):
Dig up your old dead bull Mastiff that's been done
for like twelve years, even though we still talk about.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
It fast on bone. Yeah, that's not worth the money.
Like he can stay where he's at.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
It's interesting though, I mean it does bring up certain
questions about Tom Brady's feel to read the room, but
I don't think he cares very.
Speaker 4 (20:11):
Much where you at the in Orlando this weekend.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Get I'm in Orlando tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
Yeah, never been to Orlando before, So that'll be a
UCF the game against Houston Frost, Yes, Scott Frost versus
Willie Fritz. That'll be fun on Friday night. And then
I come back to do Colorado State unl V and
then we'll be on from there.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
Next week.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
I'm gonna drive to Fresno because I'm not flying to
Fresno doesn't seem like it makes sense. So uh yeah,
I got a lot going on, a lot of dishes
to wash as the season finishes here.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
What's that like?
Speaker 5 (20:51):
Enjoy Orlando, by the way, I think you'll like UCF's campus.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
I've never been.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
Oh yeah, you like it? Yeah, bounce house. Yeah, that's
the aim of their state. It's the space game too,
which apparently they never lose, so something's got to give.
They got to play Houston, and Houston's pretty good and
they just blew a terrible get lost to West Virginia.
So we'll see how my Houston Cougars can bounce back, all.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Right, P.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
That'd be dope if they if they won, old P,
you know, thank super dope. If Houston Cougars could pull
it out in central central Orlando, the city of Central Florida.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
Yes, I guess they call it UCF. They get really
mad if you call it Central Florida.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
Now, well I'm just saying central Florida.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
I feel like geographically now I understand, but I don't know.
I didn't know that before I did the I did
UCF versus uh, Cincinnati.
Speaker 5 (21:49):
It's it's like, it's like SC. They hadn't only been
called Southern cal.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
Well, they went back to Southern cal now because they
bought the rights to it. So now that they have
the rights to what they're fine with.
Speaker 4 (21:58):
Oh makes sense.
Speaker 6 (22:00):
I just I feel like it's confusing to It's like
referring to SC. Like I tried Google searching one thing
one time, and you know, South Carolina came.
Speaker 4 (22:07):
Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Yeah, calling it SC is very West Coast thing. But
I do think you know, when you compare South Carolina
to USC and the university's histories athletically, it's not much
of a context.
Speaker 6 (22:20):
Dang jonas Hey, facts or facts. When you say they
never had the program filmed on SC's campus.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
Yeah, that is true. The program was filmed at Williams
Bryce Petros.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
They have that going for Yeah, so and they have
you know, the whole hoody and the blowfish connection.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
And it's true. Somewhere there's a Joe Caine statue there.
Oh wow. From my understanding.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
Kine is able.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
Caine is because we all know that Kane is.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
That is the best football movie, correct, Petros No, no
good one though, North Dallas forty.
Speaker 3 (22:52):
No, Well, that is a good movie. I would say
it's The water Boy really, Oh yeah, for sure.
Speaker 5 (22:59):
Oh the water Boy.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
Yeah, y'all remember when Bobby Bouche came back at halftime
and the mud Dogs won the Bourbon Ball?
Speaker 4 (23:06):
Do you you kind of sound like that one coach
that that smoke you know.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
Farmer fram Yeah, yeah, I mean we had had ogeron
on our staff when I was playing, and we saw
the water.
Speaker 4 (23:17):
Like that. Yeah, okay, The water Boy.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
The water Boy.
Speaker 3 (23:22):
What other movie do you have Lawrence Taylor stand there
and say, don't smoke crack.
Speaker 4 (23:25):
That's very true. I mean you did have him in
any given Sunday though.
Speaker 5 (23:30):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (23:31):
Man, the program was like so over the top stereotypical
is amazing. It's hard to pick over top of the program.
Speaker 4 (23:39):
Friday right lights is up there though that one isn't.
Speaker 5 (23:42):
And then dude, any given Sunday is the best speech
of any.
Speaker 4 (23:46):
I don't know. I don't know, bro.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Remember remember all time it's Team Wolf.
Speaker 4 (23:51):
Oh, I would agree what.
Speaker 5 (23:54):
Michael J. Fox?
Speaker 3 (23:56):
Yeah, Sports, you tripped out what how does do in
the middle of the game, and everybody's like, Okay.

You say some of the wildest stuff out your mouth, man,
so unbelievable, fully, the stuff saying, Hey, Brady problems, man, dude,

Speaker 5 (26:09):
Just as many problems.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
Hey, bruh if you hear this, dude, man, I know this, dude.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
I know.
Speaker 5 (26:18):
First off, I had.
Speaker 6 (26:19):
A buddy text meme after you all were talking about
Micah Parsons and all the the crosh talk.
Speaker 5 (26:24):
You guys a going. He's like what he goes, like,
what are y'all doing? I said, I don't see. I
don't know. These two guys are wild.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
I mean, we're just you know, coming up with theories.
Speaker 6 (26:35):
I squarely blamed it on Jonas though, because LeVar As.
You know, Jonas can't make a decision. You know, when
we put a decision, Jonas's laugh. He can't make it.
As me, yesterday was super obvious, bro. Like it's still
going on. It's not just yes, super obvious bro still
going on.
Speaker 4 (26:53):
That was like one hundred dollars you owed to to
the to the pot meet your passive aggressiveness. Oh come on, yeah,
it was bad, By the.
Speaker 6 (27:02):
Way, Can can we on November fifth of twenty twenty
five actually institute a fine system where when we get
together for Super Bowl we're able to go out have
a nice dinner or at least like have some drinks
or something with it.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
Yeah, sure, what are the punishable offenses? Again though you're
passive aggressive? Okay, but here's here's my You have to make.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
Mine a little bit better because I mean, I don't
really care about talking about you know, the rateskins. So
every time I'm negative about well, no.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
It was any time you reminisce that was more of.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
Just period reminisce period Yeah, well no, more like more
like towards Washington.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
Also some of the periods he was reminiscent during the
break just now, I'll tell you that.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
Yeah, it was. But the direction you take it down
is so inappropriate.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
All right, But this is my.
Speaker 5 (27:51):
The mind was who cares?
Speaker 6 (27:53):
I believe is when I feel indifferent about a subject
or a conversation, But who cares? I'll throw in ten
bucks to start it off because I did not care
about the cross talk and Micah Parsons earlier.
Speaker 4 (28:03):
I thought it was really funny.
Speaker 6 (28:04):
Though I'm keeping I'm keeping the ledger on our Google
docs just so we know where everyone's at there.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
Here's what here's the hypocrisy with all that when we
do the shop.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
Put in an initial ten too, all right? I was
when we when we twenty.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
When we when we are together doing shows, Brady likes
to to draw yeah, during breaks.
Speaker 4 (28:32):
Which is funny because like he's drawing certain things that
he's Okay, that's interesting, so he shoots.
Speaker 5 (28:44):
So he shoots the audience. Our audience is not.
Speaker 6 (28:48):
Aware of that. So this is this is stuff that
our audience has to endure. So I said, you're.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
Protecting a reputation, like, I'm not doing that. I don't.
I don't come on here with the idea of protecting
my rep you take I have I just I just
go ahead and go yeah, I have none. I just
do what I want to do.
Speaker 1 (29:06):
Also, the passive aggressive stuff, like you're super passive, but
there are times a lot of times I do it
being a smart ass. I shouldn't be punished for that.
Like if it's a legitimate being being passive aggressive, legitimately,
I get it. But if I'm being a wise ass,
I shouldn't have to pay for that. So I'm not
doing anything.
Speaker 5 (29:28):
When you get like sensitive and get passive.
Speaker 4 (29:29):
AGGRESSI when do I get sensitive? Get sensitive?
Speaker 5 (29:33):
You're about ready to do that, right, you.
Speaker 4 (29:35):
Were sensitive on the text message yesterday. Yes you do, Jonas,
I didn't start the text message. So what I didn't
get sensitive Just because you didn't start it doesn't mean
you don't get sensitive over stuff. I get sensitive less
than anybody on this show. Hands down. Wow easy. You
are like Tom Brady. You are detached from reality to
(29:58):
clone this. Do you want to hear what Brady's Notre
Dame Fighting Irish did you could draw blood take anything
from it?
Speaker 2 (30:08):
Do you want to know?
Speaker 1 (30:09):
You want to hear what Brady's Notre Dame Fighting Irish
have done to Bill O'Brien, the head coach at Boston
College Levar's you know, former buddy Bill O'Brien. Let's take
a listen to this exchange at the media yesterday.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
Coach wondering, you've a message with the fans, obviously losing
to Notre Dame Catholic School rival one A now in
the season BC, I appear I've heard from a lot
of fans.
Speaker 9 (30:32):
I'm just really yeah, I'm really glad. You know, I'm glad.
You're down. I'm not down. Nobody's down. We're fighting, we're competing.
You know, it's the second year of this program. Like
you always come in here with these down questions, Like
you show up like once a month or something like that.
You come in here with these down questions.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
I'm not down.
Speaker 9 (30:49):
I don't know what year you graduated from BC. But
this is a program that we're building. Nobody hears down.
We're positive. We're going to show up and play our
asses off against SMU.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
You can.
Speaker 9 (30:58):
You can go out there and you're clouded world or
whatever it is, and do what you want to do.
We're not down. The sun is up and we're fighting.
That's my message to the fans. What's up, Trevor?
Speaker 5 (31:12):
The ending? The ending on that.
Speaker 4 (31:13):
What's up, Trevor? Yeah, way, they're terrible. They're one at eight. Yeah,
it was he talking about.
Speaker 6 (31:21):
Well, it'll be frustrating, right because last year, you know,
they they made it to a ball game, they end
up winning seven games. They go to a ball game,
they're five hundred conference play, you lose your quarterback. I mean,
Tommy Castellanos was everything to their offense last year, and
you know, they're just they're not there yet. They're they're
and then unfortunately programs in the position of BC, which
(31:43):
I don't think they have a very big an il fund.
You know, they're trying their best to find guys from honestly,
like lower level teams group of six or even lower
than that that that have showcased something to bring up
or they're developing guys that are there, and it's a
tough hill to climb when you've got to compete with
programs that are much more well funded and getting more
(32:04):
talent than you. I mean, I'll say this, like, you know,
going back and watching what that staff did versus Notre Dame,
they kind of stymied them for a long time in
that game, the way they pressure, the way they gave
their boots looks and dropped out of it. Like if
anyone's watching BC, it's it's there. They're a competitive team schematically,
they just need to get more talent and that's a
(32:25):
hard thing to do in college football if you don't
have the funds, and clearly they're not going to be
able to raise as much funds as some of the
other powers in that conference, in particular Miami.
Speaker 4 (32:35):
I just think that there's no way around getting those
types of questions when you don't win, Like whether it's
a glass half full approach, you know, whether they're competitive
and just need more time, it doesn't really matter what
the reasoning is when you're a team that is least
(32:56):
lest in your conference and you're not doing well. You
can't be snapping on on media like you only come
here once a week to be down and all this
old other stuff, Like, Bro, what do you got, Trevor?
You're not going to bully anybody into not asking you
questions that go along with losing as a head coach.
(33:20):
There's no way around it. Nobody's ever been immune to it.
Doesn't matter how volatile you are in terms of how
you respond to it or not. It's never going to change.
It's always down is equated to losing. Up is equated
to success. We're up right now. Things are good, Like
(33:40):
things are changing, they're turning around. Like what do you
mean you always come here and you're always down? Well,
every time I come here, you're always losing. What else
am I supposed to do?
Speaker 5 (33:51):
Like?
Speaker 4 (33:51):
You want me to be positive in my questioning my
line of questioning to you if I'm hearing this from
the fan base and you're trying, you're meeting me with
all of this malice and all of this anger for
what I'm the media, I'm supposed to ask you questions
(34:11):
that are uncomfortable or may agitate or irritate you when
you're asked those questions. You can't shy away from obvious
questions when you're losing. If you're winning, you could build
Belichick somebody all day long. It doesn't work well when
you're not winning.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
I wonder how many coaches, like, right before they go
to meet with the media.
Speaker 4 (34:34):
Are like, f this, I really don't want to go
through it. Or when you walk in you see that
one reporter I always want to ask you. Yeah, man, yeah,
gotta be a fri. That's got to be the worst
part of the gig, Like oh, here we go, here
we go. I just and they sit on everything you say.
Like when when coach Franklin mets stuff.
Speaker 6 (34:53):
It's like it's like being an awful marriage, right, Like
you know you're gonna have to be like, this is
gonna come up.
Speaker 5 (34:58):
I gotta deal with this now.
Speaker 6 (35:00):
I gotta listen to him talk and ask a question
that I'm you know, professionally obligated answer.
Speaker 5 (35:05):
Here we go.
Speaker 4 (35:06):
If you miss anything in the questioning, if you don't
hit the certain cadence, if you do anything that's off,
the media is going to catch it and somebody's going
to be like Hey, you didn't do this? Or are
you okay? Like? What does this mean for you? Is
this impacting you? Like you're going to get questions that
(35:26):
you were sitting there in your head and it's like,
how am I going to answer this question? There's no
real way I can answer this question, and you know
you're going to get it. So how do you respond
to it? You mentioned marriage. I'll tell you one of
the things I learned from my uncles and a comedian
did that mess? He talked about it? Did his get
on it. It's super funny when you get in trouble
(35:49):
with a situation where you got to explain something that
you clearly cannot give an explanation that's going to be
good enough. Fight, create an argument, divert the attention away
from what the original question was, get loud, get belligerent, fight,
(36:09):
storm out, and then storm out. Yeah, there you go more.
This conversation is over.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
What do you mean? Wait?
Speaker 4 (36:16):
Wait, hold on, Like you're the one that that ain't
doing Like you're you're the one that should be I
should be upset storm what just happens?
Speaker 1 (36:23):
I always just go language barrier, Come on, man, Like
that's you know, back pocket that anytime I want come
on and it works.
Speaker 4 (36:30):
You gotta have something, Yeah, but you you just can't
be that guy all the time. That's that's all I say.
But you gotta have something to do.
Speaker 1 (36:38):
By the way, if you want to get something from
the Home Depot, we recommend Mequita Tools because the Mequita
Tools of the Home Depot are built with protection, shortcuts,

not for a vacation, but because David Beckham was knighted
by King Charles himself. He's been a longtime friend of
the family and he actually put this. He was nominated
back in twenty eleven and he just found out in
June that he was being honored.
Speaker 4 (39:28):
