Speaker 1 (00:54):
It's the Monday blues if you hate your job, and
that's why you should go to Express Employment Professionals. Nice,
they can get you a new game right exactly, absolutely nothing.
Nothing like coming off of a summer weekend and then
alarm goes off on Monday morning, and you're like, I
got to deal with this for five more days until
I get that reprieve again. That's when you bring express
(01:14):
employment into the picture.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Look at you.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
I don't know awlong Matthew Stafford's going to be employed
by the Rams. But he does have a contract that
he signed a couple of months ago, two years. What nice,
all right?
Speaker 2 (01:27):
I just didn't understand that signing when it happened a
few months ago.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
And now here we are two years, eighty four million dollars,
forty million dollars fully guaranteed. So he's got forty four
million dollars right now in his back pocket. There's another
forty million available to him for next year. The Rams
had said to Stafford, hey, go look elsewhere, check things
(01:52):
out this this offseason, and in the end they decide
to bring the veteran quarterback back, and so far it
has not looked like a great decision. We're gonna hear
from Sean McVay in just a matter of seconds on
what he had to say today because it backtracked from
what he said after their game against the Cowboys on Saturday.
(02:13):
But this was an opportunity where the Rams had said
Stafford go, Look, the Rams could have looked at other options.
They're obviously looking towards the future. But we thought Matthew
Stafford today Monci was gonna dress and be ready for
practice because of this back injury. Instead he was in
street clothes, not practicing at all.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Yeah, it's not a good sign.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
And the signing a few months ago it didn't make
sense to me because of Stafford's age, because of his
history with certain injuries that are a little bit scary,
whether it comes to his neck, the back, you know,
injuries that are not a dislocated pinky that have a
little bit more a seriousness to them.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
So I never understood it.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
And this they have been so coy about this from
the beginning. Did you really not know he had a
back problem? Because this didn't just come out of nowhere.
I think this had to have been brewing something that
you have had to at least keep an eye on,
because here we are telling us that he's going to
return to practice on Monday.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
And now it's like, I don't know if.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Any of what has been said regarding Shaw, regarding Matthew
Stafford from Sean McVay has been truthful in any Wayshape
or from And I understand as a coach in the Rams,
you don't want to let the cat out of the bag.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Like they did the same thing with Todd Gurley back then.
They don't want you.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
To know to keep you on your toes, your toes
and on the edge and use it against teams.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
But it's not good. This is not good for the Rams.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
You're one hundred percent right. And this is different than
every other situation that we've got in the NFL, including
holdouts like Terry McLaurin and Micah Parsons, because not only
is this an injury to Manti's point, it's a back
injury and not just a dislocated finger or something that
can heal quickly. It is also to a quarterback that
is thirty seven years old and has battled injuries over
(03:56):
the last couple of years. We're gonna get to the
Matthew Stafford dilemma and where the Rams are because there
are a lot of dominoes that come from it. But
this is what Sean McVay said about why Matthew Stafford
didn't suit up UH for practice earlier today. Instead from
the comments that he made on Saturday, which were in
direct opposite of what McVeigh had had said that they
(04:19):
expected Stafford to be to be ready, Isaac, do we
have that? Do we have that? Matthew? The excuse me
the Sean McVay sound from earlier today.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
As a matter of fact, we do all right, hit it, Sean.
Speaker 5 (04:31):
Ultimately what ended up happening and had a great workout,
felt good, but then you know, come in today and
it doesn't feel great, and so I didn't think that
was the right decision to be able to push him.
We're going to be smart, you know, but he didn't
feel good enough, and we didn't think it was the
right thing to do based on you know, how he
woke up feeling today.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
I've had those days right all right? Today no, no,
but I have like why today? Why case of the mondays?
I know, I get it's the National Football League, but
the reality is is, yeah, they don't want to risk it,
they don't want to push it. But now you're playing
(05:11):
with kid gloves on Matthew Stafford. As the season is
getting closer and closer, you have a new wide receiver
and DeVante Adams. How good is the chemistry? There's a
lot there I feel that you didn't like the Matthew
Stafford deal for a lot of reasons, and I feel
that the Rams did the deal that you didn't like
was because they felt that they had a legitimate shot
(05:34):
at getting to a Super Bowl. And I don't know
how legitimate it was. And that's been my thing with
the Stafford situation is when you look on paper how
the Rams got to the playoffs. They got there with
a ten and seven record. They were tied with the
Seahawks for that record in the NFC West, and they
(05:55):
won on a strength of schedule tiebreaker. They then go
into the playoffs, they have that crazy game where it
gets moved to Arizona because the wildfires here in southern California,
and they dominate the Vikings in what was just a weird,
crazy week where the Rams were relocated. They then go
to Philadelphia. I end up in his blizzard in the
(06:15):
second half and somehow almost have this comeback against the Eagles,
who end up going to dominate the Chiefs in Super
Bowl fifty nine. And so you say to yourself, wow,
we almost beat the Eagles in Philadelphia. They just took
care of the Chiefs. Were that close to a super
Bowl would why would why not try to run it
back again? That's why I think that they did this.
(06:37):
But when you start to look at like how they
got to that point and what happened in those spots,
I don't think they were as close to a Super
Bowl as it appears. So now you bring Stafford back
on that salary that worked better for both sides, even
though they told him to move on. I think the
Rams had to weigh like, do we try to run
this back because our defense is much better than we thought,
(06:59):
or do we just try to move on for a
new age. I think they tried to run it back
one time, and now I think they're having some remorse
over that decision.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Yeah, it's been interesting with the Rams last couple of years, right,
Remember with like I was gonna say, Cooper Flag Cooper
Cup that they were like, oh, maybe we're gonna trade him.
He We're entertaining the idea, like you mentioned, letting Matthew
Stafford go test the waters to see if somebody was
willing to pay him a little bit more. And I
think the Rams had a plan. And then they got
these great new players by the name of Pukunakua Kinrin
(07:30):
Williams while already being a well coached team that they
were like, maybe our window isn't actually closed the way
maybe some thought and I understood also why they signed
Matthew Stafford. I think a little bit out of loyalty.
He did take you to a super Bowl, you did
win with him. You don't want to just let him
walk away. But I think they just believe their hype
(07:51):
from their young up and coming weapons that they were
that close.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
But in reality, they weren't that close.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Yes they're not as the risk that they took. Now
they have a good team that I think could be
set up for great success in the future, but for
the short term right now. Even though on paper it
looked like that they were close to a super Bowl,
because technically they took the Super Bowl champion Eagles down
to the wire in Philadelphia in the playoffs, that should
(08:20):
tell you, like in the NFL, where it feels like
it's a bit of a crap shoot. But they were
also this side of a strength of schedule situation. And
I know they played the Seahawks in Week eighteen and
as a game, the Rams didn't play their starters, But
maybe they could have lost that game and the Seahawks
win the division and the Rams don't even make the postseason.
Now you're having a completely different conversation about Matthew Stafford
(08:42):
and your future because you're saying, we were a ten
win team and we didn't make the playoffs. Where do
we go? So I think what happened in January made
the Rams kind of feel like, all right, let's end
up bringing it back. And what's interesting is now, you know,
with Devontae Adams in fold, Aaron Rodgers as an option
to the Rams was talked about this offseason and even
(09:05):
though people are saying Aaron Rodgers is looking all these
looking stiff, he'd be much better of an option if
he's available, as opposed to a Matthew Stafford who is not.
So we thought that maybe Aaron Rodgers only had one
option this offseason, it may have been more than one
if Matthew Stafford remains on the sidelines with this back injury.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Yeah, so I'm wondering, right, who held the information from
who first? I don't believe that this back issue just
came out of nowhere, and that's my whole point. So
it's like, is this why Matthew Stafford was hoping for
this contract because he knew that he had a back
issue that wasn't going fully away and that's why he
wanted this. Or did the Rams really know all along
(09:46):
and think it was something that they could manage, that
they can deal for the next two years manage.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
I don't think that they. I don't think that they
knew the extent, Yes.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
The extent of it, and so yeah, it sounds like
the Rams could have had a different quarterback. But you know,
there are some things that are just meant to be Dan.
There's just some things that are meant to be. Peanut
butter and jelly meant to be DeVante Adams and Jimmy
Garoppolo meant.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
To be I can't you guys like, I don't know
what else it's all.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Yes, that's definitely meant meant to be.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
He can't get away from him.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
He maybe Stetson Bennett bennetted from from what from what
Bo was was gushing about stets and Bennett this past offseason.
I know you so want to make that Jimmy g
DeVante Adams relationship come to fruition, whether it be at
the expense of Matthew Stafford's back or stetson Bennett's future career.
You're the only one, including Jimmy Garoppolo and Devanta Adams
(10:41):
that want to see that. I know he doesn't. That's
what I said. You're the only one that wants to
see it. I don't think either of them do.
Speaker 6 (10:49):
Can we play like a game really quick? That kind
of ties into what you were talking about, Dan, in
terms of the rams over performance last year, I'm going
to give you quarterback and quarterback be their stat line.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Oh boy, the resume time.
Speaker 6 (11:01):
Yes, Quarterback A sixty five point eight percent completion percentage
three seven and sixty two yards, twenty touchdowns, eight interceptions.
Quarterback B sixty two percent completion percentage and forty one
yards twenty touchdowns, six interceptions.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Okay, so higher quarterback percentage essentially completion percentage was quarterback A.
I think quarterback A had just two more interceptions, two
more interceptions. Okay, I'm I'm gonna you know, I'm gonna
even despite the completion percentage. I don't want to turn
the ball over. I'm going to go quarterback B. I'm
(11:42):
going to go quarterback B.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
In that scenario, I think I'm going to go quarterback B.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
As well, because interesting, don't I don't think, by the way,
I don't think that this is the goal of this game,
if I'm meaning correct.
Speaker 6 (11:51):
Quarterback A was Matthew Stafford last year?
Speaker 3 (11:53):
Huh?
Speaker 6 (11:54):
Quarterback B was Kleables last year. Yeah, Matthew Stafford was
Tier one in the athletic quarterback rankings today and Caleb
Williams was fringed Heier three in the Athletics quarterback rankings.
Matthew Stafford is literally the unks still Got It meme
where he's just barely holding on, but he gets talked
about like he's still thrown to Calvin Johnson.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Total or like he's twenty nine.
Speaker 6 (12:17):
Yeah, and I like Stafford.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
That's the Super Bowl season event.
Speaker 7 (12:20):
I do think a lot of the respect for Stafford
is coming a bit delayed because I know, like everyone
now talks about, oh, this was the guy everyone watched
on their day off and Aaron Rodgers's watch would rather
watch him than like, you know, watch his own tape
on a tablet or something. But yeah, at this point,
he's you know, it's late thirties, You've got a herniated disc,
(12:41):
and can we talk about this wellness chamber that they
appear to Amskin.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
You and Isaac are hot on this. I yeah, so
I did some research into this because them hot with sarcasm.
Speaker 6 (12:53):
Hey.
Speaker 7 (12:54):
So the name of this company is like a Mortal,
which immediately struck me hard because it's like, all right,
you're doing immortal plus I guess a moral. So that's weird.
It's a converted airstream trailer. And it just screamed to
me that it's like, okay, like this seems some like
weird tech stuff. And then I looked into the company
and it is just healing crystals all the way down.
(13:15):
It is like it is a six figure chair with
like electromagnetic field therapy, vibro audio therapy.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
You know what it's for. It's to whiten his teeth.
That's what it's for. That's what he is. Detroit to
La has never gone stronger. He looks like ross from friends.
Mazzi just saw the picture I put up on Twitter.
So that's I know what. By the way, it doesn't
(13:45):
that machine doesn't whiten his teeth. But what is it?
It's he it's a healing crystals thing. Is that It's
what any to any to pull this up against it?
Speaker 4 (13:55):
It also requires a landline internet connection.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
For I have no idea for the vibrations. I'll just
take their word for waved pull.
Speaker 7 (14:06):
It's a chair you sit down in multi wave pulse
electromagnetic fields, vibroacoustic sound therapy, multi wavelength light therapy, molecular
hydrogen UH lying into your nostrils, and you just lay it.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
It's basically like this.
Speaker 7 (14:24):
This looks like this looks like a tanning bed, except
you're not really coming out bronzed at all.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
This this is, this is so Aaron Rodgers coded.
Speaker 7 (14:31):
I'm not sure how this has fallen into the This
is this is outside RAMS training camp.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Maybe that's here they got the idea from Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
It also says the only consumables the chamber utilizes are
distilled water for the hydrogen diffuser and disposable nasal canules.
Speaker 7 (14:49):
Whatevercane healing crystals. For me, because the last paragraph on this,
like spec sheets, is talking about ancient insight meets modern
tech and they have embedded sacred geometry and other symbology
and earth total.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
All right, I'm starting to tune out, okay, and I'm
doing the show. So I think the point is this,
we get it that here's the deal with Stafford, it's
the end. Like, if you're doing this now, you don't
do this at twenty eight. You don't bring an airstream
with healing crystals in nasal oxygen or whatever when you're
(15:23):
twenty eight years old. I know, like hard knocks. In
the past, we'd see guys getting in their cryo chambers.
This is trying to maximize your final days in the sun.
This is the someone's about to turn forty or fifty.
Let's I want to be twenty still, Let's try this,
Let's go to this. That's exactly what this is with
Matthew Stafford. Yeah, and it somehow has made his teeth
(15:46):
so blinding white. He looks like Ross from Friends.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Yeah, this chamber thing makes it worse.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
If we're being completely honest, like you said, you were
doing this because you are desperate right now.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
Yes, you're not bringing this in for car and Williams.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
And you're desperate also because the team made a commitment
to you, they dared you to go and look for
other options. They're just as desperate as Matthew Stafford. They're together. Yeah,
And I'm not saying you're saying anything different. I'm just
saying the point of what this is, so you will
try anything.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
They're stuck right now, they're stuck. The rams are stuck.
They're trying to figure it out.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Correct, correct, and so now you might do it. You're
not gonna do. I mean, it could be a chamber
of horrors so far for the Rams, for how this
has worked out. Okay, horrors, horrors.
Speaker 6 (16:31):
We could give aways. We could get one of these
chambers for only a fififty dollars deposit.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Oh that's just the deposit.
Speaker 6 (16:42):
But we can finance it for payments as low as
three thousand a month. So I'm thinking we just call
we scratch a piro and see what the card we.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Got a company card. Let's just put it on that.
Let's just and then I'll try to just get it
past them when I put it in their expenses.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
We can all be better if we have the chamber here?
Speaker 7 (16:57):
Does Fox Sports Radio count as vibro acoustic?
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Have you seen Forfet's teeth? They're amazingly we are not
they are not. No, No, I mean just after the.
Speaker 6 (17:08):
Yet a dentist, I'm gonna go to the have to
work with the building to see where we can put
this trailer but.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Convert the old Nikki six studio. No, we'll just put
it where they break into cars in the parking lot.
That's where. That's where we'll do it. No one will
no one will go by then. Yes, then the yoga
people will use it. This is it is not charging
for it. And this is the point where the where
the rams. And by the way, I will say this
with the rams the reason why and I've stated this
(17:39):
before Monci, so I apologize if you're hearing it again,
but if you're listening to the first time. This is
a team that traded in a deal in the draft.
They traded away their first round pick this year to
the Atlanta Falcons, so they have two first round picks
next year, knowing that Matthew Stafford was not going to
be their quarterback in twenty twenty six. I did is
(18:00):
not their plan. If they win a Super Bowl, which
I think is their ultimate goal this year, it is
right off in the sunset as a two time Super
Bowl champ. We'll see ing Canton in five years.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
Yep, thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Because that would that would solidify his career and then
they would have no ill effects towards it. They were
planning and are planning for the twenty twenty six draft
and the twenty twenty six season by doing that move. Now,
there are a lot of teams that wish that they
would have gotten the deal that the Falcons presented the
Rams at that time, but the Rams are the beneficiary
(18:33):
of it. So they go into next year Monzi with
two first round picks, just like the Brons do, and
possibly both of those teams, maybe not the Brons because
of the shedor Sanders, who knows. We'll be looking for
a quarterback in the draft, which we think is going
to be a significantly better draft for quarterbacks than twenty
twenty six, whether Arch Manning is in or out of
the draft. So the Rams have been looking for this,
(18:53):
and that's why when you go back and you trace
the steps to where they are. They didn't want to
punt on this year because they felt they were so
close in the playoffs. But they do have eyes on
the future. The defense is so much better than you
thought that they would be when you lost Aaron Donald
to retirement. So there are a lot of good things
happening with the Rams. It's just they may not happen
in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
I think everybody else in that division is just so
excited with this information coming out because everybody, a lot
of people had the Rams winning this division. I thought
the forty nine ers have a very easy schedule to
get to winning the division, despite I know the questions
with age for Christian McCaffrey and what he can do
(19:37):
in the workload, and you've lost some weapons.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
I'm sorry. I thought Rich Davis was back here. They're
gonna be great.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
They're scheduled dan such an easy.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
Ste so they're the worst. Yeah, they have the easiest
strength of schedule in the NFL.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
Absolutely, absolutely, So I really thought that they they would
be the ones to take the division.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
But a lot of people had the Rams.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
So I can only imagine that the Seahawks and the
car paying attention and they're like, look out, we're coming.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
I'm going to tell you right now. I'm going to
say it right now, and I'll say.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Write dam prediction, write it down, put it on that sheet.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
He's gonna be I want to give you the definitive order.
But the Rams and Niners are going to be the
two worst teams in that division. Wow, the Cardinals, the
Cardinals are Seahawks will win the NFC West. Wow. And
it's because when you have stuff like this going on
in the preseason, it doesn't necessarily work out that well.
I think people are completely overvaluing the forty nine Ers.
(20:30):
The other teams in the NFC West also get to
face teams from the AFC South and also get the
teams face teams from the NFC South. We know Carolina
is expected to be better, but we don't know how
good New Orleans is going to be. We don't know
how good the Falcons are going to be. Yeah, we
kind of do. But you'd much rather face that division
than say the NFC East when you have to face
(20:51):
the Commanders and Eagles, or obviously the NFC North with
their strong squads. So the rest of the division also
has an easy year road, just not as easy as
the forty nine ers because they finished dead last, but
they'll get a lot of the similar opponents in the schedule.
So that's why you can't sleep on Arizona and you
can't sleep on Seattle because they also get to face
(21:12):
some of these teams that these squads are facing.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Fair fair. I am not trusting the Cardinals right now.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
That's and I don't think many people are. I don't
think people will. I'm not and I think that the
Rams in the forty nine ers, because people feel like
all the forty nine ers, they have that one bad year,
then they bounce back. It's not the forty nine ers
team from four years ago. It's just not that doesn't
this doesn't happen every single year with them at some
point ages catching up to you, just like the Rams
are finding out with Matthew Stafford. Yeah, she's Monzi Bologno.

but also history was made. You say, a glass ceiling
shattered on Saturday as Jen Powell made history becoming the
first female to umpire a Major League baseball game, and
(23:37):
then she ended up on Sunday being behind on plate
in the Marlins Braves game. It was something that we
had talked about last week, Manzi when the news kind
of broke. We've seen it in the NBA. We've become
accustomed to it. I think in the NFL sometimes with
hats you don't realize talent.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
You see maybe a Ponytail movie.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Correct, So it's almost become the norm totally. But now
in Major League Baseball sometimes when they're geared up or
depending on the hats, could be the same thing. But
we I didn't realize that it had never happened before
until they told us. But finally a female was an
umpire in a major league baseball game.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
Yeah, no, I didn't know either.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
I mean I heard about a year ago when she
was doing minor league baseball, but at that time, I
was like.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
Oh, there's no female umpires in baseball? How late to
the game?
Speaker 2 (24:24):
Are they the slowest sport out of the big three?
Speaker 3 (24:27):
You know that you would think you can have a female.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Umpire because there's not a lot of contact and is
one of the slower sports. Way late to the game,
way late to the game. She's been doing minor league
for a few years now, and yeah she got her
her big start. Good for her, all right.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Jen Jason Stewart said on Friday that this was something
that like Major League Baseball really couldn't celebrate because to
your point, they were just slow to the game.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
Late to the game.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
And then also because considering the discussion with umpires right
moving towards robot umpires, because the umpires are not sometimes
that great.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
It's just kind of like this is when you want
to bring a woman when you're having problems, we do
solve the problems. I guess that's why you're bringing a woman.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
I thought that the irony was and I don't know
if it's irony because I'm not sure the exact definition
of it. Chris Pophat or Isaac Lowancron, bo benzon UMNTI
someone who's way smart, smarter than he could tell me.
I just thought it was interesting that this weekend was
also hijacked by some thirteen year old kid who wants
to be an umpire. And it's like, all right, this
(25:30):
is why I hate kid cooking shows. I can't stand it.
I can't stand them Food Network. I don't need to
see kids cook. I don't. I just I don't like
it annoys me, and I'm sorry if I was annoyed
by thirteen year old kid Empire. But after like two calls,
it was neat. I can't imagine Inning six being at
the game and he's still doing that, like, all right,
(25:53):
we get it, we still doing a bit understand.
Speaker 7 (25:55):
Twenty twenty five baby gronk. Yeah, I was gonna say,
is this the cause one of the hostco guys.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
I just who wants to be an umpire? Nobody does, right,
because he gave me three big booms. I just, oh
my goodness, Like, I hope neither team gave him an
autography because he's an umpire, Like no, we're not. No,
I'm kidding, I'm kidding.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
I think kids maybe want to be umpires for the
Savanna bananas right now.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
And maybe that they're in the doing backflips.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
Yeah, exactly you got to have a good strikeout call.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
What are you're gonna be in the Pittsanana points On.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
A weekend where we're whether we should or shouldn't celebrated,
it was still a milestone. Yes, what we also have
it basically being like, look, a thirteen year old kid
could do this job as well. Not only not only robots,
but a thirteen year old kid sitting three rows up
could also do this job. Like that's what we're doing.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Yeah, I think I think Baseball missed that part right there,
that message.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
I h I think it was. It was a cool weekend.
Hopefully we'll see more. But it doesn't mean that we
can't have some fun, at least on my end. I
know it may be low hanging fruit. Well, we have
some jokes, Okay, all right, let's let's just strike it. Manzi.
I don't know what these are. These are female umpire jokes. Okay,
(27:09):
these are Look at Isaac Low and kron Is backed
away from from the microphone. Did you guys know that
the game was delayed ten minutes yesterday? Did you know that?
Speaker 3 (27:18):
I did not know that.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
Yeah, not because of the standing ovation, but she was
late after she hit three traffic cones and a parking
attendant of the parking lot. That's what happened.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
No, come on, are you implying that women are not
good driving?
Speaker 1 (27:34):
Let's look, this is lower you are you?
Speaker 3 (27:36):
You sound like my dad right now?
Speaker 1 (27:38):
Okay, Dan, all right?
Speaker 3 (27:40):
And you know what my.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
Dad when he's saying, oh, it's got to be a female,
and then we turned the corner and it's not.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
It's a man.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
Okay, Okay, I'm kidding. It wasn't. The game wasn't delayed
ten minutes. It was actually delayed ninety minutes because she
was still getting ready. That's that's the reason why. That's
all right. No, I don't need drops. They're the jokes
by themselves.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
Okay, No you need help.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
No, no, you need help. No maybe maybe a laugh track. No, No,
women take forever to get ready. That's the joke.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
That's the worst one. Can you give me a better joke?
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Though?
Speaker 3 (28:10):
Come on, you gotta give something better.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Did you know that they the first baseball that she
called that they took out a play? Yes, yeah, she
took it to Nordstrum and got store credit afterwards. That's
a nice second. I love I love a nice meaningful gift.
Taken back by a woman like you know there it
was a nice, meaningful gift for Christmas.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
Yeah, okay, because apparently we're bad drivers. We did treat ourselves.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
That was just low hanging fruit. Did you know that
the game was stopped for twenty minutes in the bottom
of the fourth Why Dan, she couldn't make up her
mind if the runner at home was safer out? That's
it just took forever. Like, just make up your mind
on something, bo Benson, buy that all right, Chris Purfette,
You're uh, jokes are going so far.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
That one was funny.
Speaker 8 (29:02):
That one.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
I'll give it because I can't make up my mind
whenever I want to eat something.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
I don't know and I you know what, Okay, safe, Nope, out, Nope,
he's out. Okay, he's out. Nope, you know what, he's safe.
You know.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
But that was fun I'll give that one to you.
That one was funny.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
There was good news from yesterday's game.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
It was there.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Yeah, no one was ejected. Both managers felt it was pointless.
And some man has never won an argument with a woman,
that is, And it was Isaac, Isaac, you are hiding
under the desk. I saw bow break for a second.
I saw you like. Which one did you like? Which
one did you like?
Speaker 6 (29:41):
That last one was good because it's true, because it's
also the one about taking forever. Yes, that is a challenge.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
And whyever we started this game while she's still getting ready?
That's why.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Yeah, you guys, we try. We care, Okay, just because
you take three minutes to get out of bed, we try.
I washed my hair today. That was It's all process,
you know.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
She stopped talking to Braves manager Brian Snitker for the
rest of the game because he dared to challenge a
call in the sixth inning. She just stopped talking to him.
They asked her why, She goes, I'm not mad. I'm fine.
I'm fine. I'm just quiet. I'm not I'm not mad.
Why were you mad at Brian Snicker? I'm fine? What
do you mean? I'm I'm fine. I'm fine.
Speaker 3 (30:21):
Lisa is so lucky to have you so lucky? Dand
is anybody who's.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
Been served of horse papers on air? Because it could
happen today.
Speaker 6 (30:31):
Oh, there she comes, hit the break news sounder.
Speaker 1 (30:33):
All right, here's the one I'm worried about about it.
That's the last one.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
Do you actually have when you're worried about Look at you.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
Oh, no, home plate cleanest they've ever seen it, cleanest
they've ever seen it. It's time to stop.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
It's time to stop.
Speaker 8 (30:56):
Okay, so rude.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
When she took lemon pledge to the outside of the
black on the plates, I thought it was absurd. I
thought it was ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
And this is why we can't have nice things. We
can have nice things.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
Let's go to an overall grade, Manzi. Those jokes that
we could have said, what do we got?
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Listen, they weren't. They weren't terrible. See, they weren't terrible.
Fun they they're stereotypical. They weren't terrible.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
I thought it was odd she brought a swiffer out
to the.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
More like that thing, like you better?
Speaker 7 (31:39):
My goodness, we're in a good second half to the
point where I was going to play this.
Speaker 6 (31:42):
Yeah, they had us the first half.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 7 (31:44):
Because you have been improving. You've been improving in the
in the back nine here. Uh, we try to end.
Speaker 3 (31:51):
On a high note. All right, you're going to clean
the house later today. I'm going to text Lisa, you're cleaning.
Get your swiffer ready.
Speaker 7 (32:00):
This would only be like the second time I think
a host has been called out on air by their wife.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
No, when was the first.
Speaker 7 (32:08):
Jason Smith's wife called in to complain when he was
blaming her about the state of the laundry. I've been
looking for it. I think it's in our system somewhere.
I am hand of the Bible. I was there for that.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
I can't wait for the garage door opener to not
work when I get home.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
Yeah, all right, the keys won't work either.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
See, yeah, here is your new address. Yes, oh no, I.
Speaker 3 (32:31):
Can visit Brody every other weekend.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Hey, oh man, I did run a couple of these
by here because I'm like, hey, let me know what.
Do you think she may have laughed at one?
Speaker 3 (32:41):
She chuckled, Yes, she chuckled one or.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Two she may not have. I won't tell you which
one she liked her good? All right, Speaking of ending
on a high note, we're gonna end the segment with
Isaac Lushan at the news desk. You could get within
twenty yards your microphone, Isaac, feel free?
Speaker 6 (32:55):
All right?
Speaker 1 (32:56):
All right? Is safe? Yeah?

All right? Actually out the driving one and the cleaning
one were the real ones where we're like, okay, that's all.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
The home plate one was clever, and I thought I
may have heard that somewhere.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
I apologize if but someone's jock. No, I didn't mean.
I didn't mean to, but I.

a dynasty draft for fantasy football this past weekend. It's
still going on, right, Where are we in your dynasty draft?
Speaker 6 (35:08):
I have not made a pick today.
Speaker 1 (35:10):
All right? And those are are always fun. I can't
stand the fantasy draft via text. We had one of those.
Steve de Seger was in. It was the worst thing ever.
You text it's a text chain. You make one hundred
and twenty picks via text message, so it just keeps
going and going.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
And then somebody is putting these picks in like.
Speaker 1 (35:34):
Yes, yes, yes, someone's writing them down. It's just off.
Yes that take the time out people, set aside three
hours of your day. If it's going to dominate your
Sundays every year, you can do that. Now do a draft,
do it the right way. You won't regret it, simple
as that. That's that's all that I have to say.
Speaker 3 (35:53):
I wouldn't do that if if they were like, we're
going to do it in a text chain, I'd be.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
Like, no, is your email bow? Is that what it is?
Speaker 6 (36:00):
No, it is it is sleeper. But oh yeah, everybody
is asleep.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Okay, but do they enter the pick they enter it
on a site or do they do yeah, okay, yeah,
all right, then it's like your pick us up. It's
it's the worst. He'll be honestly, October ninth, he'll still
be here. They'll still be drafting the way that some
of those things go. Oh, today there was news from
college football, and the coaches poll is usually thought to
(36:26):
be kind of the joke of the town and The
reason Manzi is because coaches really only see who they play.
So if you're the coach, if you're James Franklin at
Penn State, you can see what Texas did in the
score book, but you're not worried about what they're doing
to watch them play to fill out a ballot. A
lot of the coaches ballots are made by sports information
(36:48):
directors who probably know just as much as the coaches
do because they're also have game day duties and not
focusing on everybody else in the country. It's the ap
pole that we think, is this end all be all
because the writers know all Well, no, not necessarily, because again,
if you're a beat writer for a team, you're likely
following that team and therefore not able to see everybody
(37:10):
in college football. So they're people don't like polls. They say,
we don't have preseason polls. I love them because they
get you hyped for the season, but there's no perfect way.
But I just want to say this, did you see
who was number one in the preseason eight peopole tree?
Did it was Texas?
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (37:25):
Right, yes, well that was the same one in the
coaches poll. And the coaches are like, you know what,
you know what would be good for college football. Let's
start a season with one versus two. We'll put Ohio
State too, because they open up the season perfect. Not
the media writers. They put Penn State two and Ohio
State three. In fact, Penn State almost top Texas just
five points. Shy because the media thinks they know all.
(37:45):
But in this situation, not good for college football. You
should have just done a one out of two. So
you have a one in of two to start the season,
and that gets everybody hyped. I would avoid me.
Speaker 2 (37:54):
Yes, I was surprised by the one two three. To
be honest with you, I thought Ohio State would have
been one or two.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
Oh yes, you would say, naturally, you didn't understand the assignment.
Penn State may ultimately be the best team in the country,
and when they show it on the field, you have that.
But if you have a one versus two possible matchup,
that's how you do it. People don't believe in these
polls anyway. It's just for hype, and the media didn't
get the assignments.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
You had one job.

alarm goes off on Monday morning, and you're like, I
got to deal with this for five more days until
I get that reprieve again. That's when you bring express
(01:14):
employment into the picture.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Look at you.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
I don't know awlong Matthew Stafford's going to be employed
by the Rams. But he does have a contract that
he signed a couple of months ago, two years. What nice,
all right?
Speaker 2 (01:27):
I just didn't understand that signing when it happened a
few months ago.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
And now here we are two years, eighty four million dollars,
forty million dollars fully guaranteed. So he's got forty four
million dollars right now in his back pocket. There's another
forty million available to him for next year. The Rams
had said to Stafford, hey, go look elsewhere, check things
(01:52):
out this this offseason, and in the end they decide
to bring the veteran quarterback back, and so far it
has not looked like a great decision. We're gonna hear
from Sean McVay in just a matter of seconds on
what he had to say today because it backtracked from
what he said after their game against the Cowboys on Saturday.
(02:13):
But this was an opportunity where the Rams had said
Stafford go, Look, the Rams could have looked at other options.
They're obviously looking towards the future. But we thought Matthew
Stafford today Monci was gonna dress and be ready for
practice because of this back injury. Instead he was in
street clothes, not practicing at all.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Yeah, it's not a good sign.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
And the signing a few months ago it didn't make
sense to me because of Stafford's age, because of his
history with certain injuries that are a little bit scary,
whether it comes to his neck, the back, you know,
injuries that are not a dislocated pinky that have a
little bit more a seriousness to them.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
So I never understood it.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
And this they have been so coy about this from
the beginning. Did you really not know he had a
back problem? Because this didn't just come out of nowhere.
I think this had to have been brewing something that
you have had to at least keep an eye on,
because here we are telling us that he's going to
return to practice on Monday.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
And now it's like, I don't know if.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Any of what has been said regarding Shaw, regarding Matthew
Stafford from Sean McVay has been truthful in any Wayshape
or from And I understand as a coach in the Rams,
you don't want to let the cat out of the bag.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Like they did the same thing with Todd Gurley back then.
They don't want you.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
To know to keep you on your toes, your toes
and on the edge and use it against teams.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
But it's not good. This is not good for the Rams.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
You're one hundred percent right. And this is different than
every other situation that we've got in the NFL, including
holdouts like Terry McLaurin and Micah Parsons, because not only
is this an injury to Manti's point, it's a back
injury and not just a dislocated finger or something that
can heal quickly. It is also to a quarterback that
is thirty seven years old and has battled injuries over
(03:56):
the last couple of years. We're gonna get to the
Matthew Stafford dilemma and where the Rams are because there
are a lot of dominoes that come from it. But
this is what Sean McVay said about why Matthew Stafford
didn't suit up UH for practice earlier today. Instead from
the comments that he made on Saturday, which were in
direct opposite of what McVeigh had had said that they
(04:19):
expected Stafford to be to be ready, Isaac, do we
have that? Do we have that? Matthew? The excuse me
the Sean McVay sound from earlier today.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
As a matter of fact, we do all right, hit it, Sean.
Speaker 5 (04:31):
Ultimately what ended up happening and had a great workout,
felt good, but then you know, come in today and
it doesn't feel great, and so I didn't think that
was the right decision to be able to push him.
We're going to be smart, you know, but he didn't
feel good enough, and we didn't think it was the
right thing to do based on you know, how he
woke up feeling today.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
I've had those days right all right? Today no, no,
but I have like why today? Why case of the mondays?
I know, I get it's the National Football League, but
the reality is is, yeah, they don't want to risk it,
they don't want to push it. But now you're playing
(05:11):
with kid gloves on Matthew Stafford. As the season is
getting closer and closer, you have a new wide receiver
and DeVante Adams. How good is the chemistry? There's a
lot there I feel that you didn't like the Matthew
Stafford deal for a lot of reasons, and I feel
that the Rams did the deal that you didn't like
was because they felt that they had a legitimate shot
(05:34):
at getting to a Super Bowl. And I don't know
how legitimate it was. And that's been my thing with
the Stafford situation is when you look on paper how
the Rams got to the playoffs. They got there with
a ten and seven record. They were tied with the
Seahawks for that record in the NFC West, and they
(05:55):
won on a strength of schedule tiebreaker. They then go
into the playoffs, they have that crazy game where it
gets moved to Arizona because the wildfires here in southern California,
and they dominate the Vikings in what was just a weird,
crazy week where the Rams were relocated. They then go
to Philadelphia. I end up in his blizzard in the
(06:15):
second half and somehow almost have this comeback against the Eagles,
who end up going to dominate the Chiefs in Super
Bowl fifty nine. And so you say to yourself, wow,
we almost beat the Eagles in Philadelphia. They just took
care of the Chiefs. Were that close to a super
Bowl would why would why not try to run it
back again? That's why I think that they did this.
(06:37):
But when you start to look at like how they
got to that point and what happened in those spots,
I don't think they were as close to a Super
Bowl as it appears. So now you bring Stafford back
on that salary that worked better for both sides, even
though they told him to move on. I think the
Rams had to weigh like, do we try to run
this back because our defense is much better than we thought,
(06:59):
or do we just try to move on for a
new age. I think they tried to run it back
one time, and now I think they're having some remorse
over that decision.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Yeah, it's been interesting with the Rams last couple of years, right,
Remember with like I was gonna say, Cooper Flag Cooper
Cup that they were like, oh, maybe we're gonna trade him.
He We're entertaining the idea, like you mentioned, letting Matthew
Stafford go test the waters to see if somebody was
willing to pay him a little bit more. And I
think the Rams had a plan. And then they got
these great new players by the name of Pukunakua Kinrin
(07:30):
Williams while already being a well coached team that they
were like, maybe our window isn't actually closed the way
maybe some thought and I understood also why they signed
Matthew Stafford. I think a little bit out of loyalty.
He did take you to a super Bowl, you did
win with him. You don't want to just let him
walk away. But I think they just believe their hype
(07:51):
from their young up and coming weapons that they were
that close.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
But in reality, they weren't that close.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Yes they're not as the risk that they took. Now
they have a good team that I think could be
set up for great success in the future, but for
the short term right now. Even though on paper it
looked like that they were close to a super Bowl,
because technically they took the Super Bowl champion Eagles down
to the wire in Philadelphia in the playoffs, that should
(08:20):
tell you, like in the NFL, where it feels like
it's a bit of a crap shoot. But they were
also this side of a strength of schedule situation. And
I know they played the Seahawks in Week eighteen and
as a game, the Rams didn't play their starters, But
maybe they could have lost that game and the Seahawks
win the division and the Rams don't even make the postseason.
Now you're having a completely different conversation about Matthew Stafford
(08:42):
and your future because you're saying, we were a ten
win team and we didn't make the playoffs. Where do
we go? So I think what happened in January made
the Rams kind of feel like, all right, let's end
up bringing it back. And what's interesting is now, you know,
with Devontae Adams in fold, Aaron Rodgers as an option
to the Rams was talked about this offseason and even
(09:05):
though people are saying Aaron Rodgers is looking all these
looking stiff, he'd be much better of an option if
he's available, as opposed to a Matthew Stafford who is not.
So we thought that maybe Aaron Rodgers only had one
option this offseason, it may have been more than one
if Matthew Stafford remains on the sidelines with this back injury.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Yeah, so I'm wondering, right, who held the information from
who first? I don't believe that this back issue just
came out of nowhere, and that's my whole point. So
it's like, is this why Matthew Stafford was hoping for
this contract because he knew that he had a back
issue that wasn't going fully away and that's why he
wanted this. Or did the Rams really know all along
(09:46):
and think it was something that they could manage, that
they can deal for the next two years manage.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
I don't think that they. I don't think that they
knew the extent, Yes.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
The extent of it, and so yeah, it sounds like
the Rams could have had a different quarterback. But you know,
there are some things that are just meant to be Dan.
There's just some things that are meant to be. Peanut
butter and jelly meant to be DeVante Adams and Jimmy
Garoppolo meant.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
To be I can't you guys like, I don't know
what else it's all.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Yes, that's definitely meant meant to be.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
He can't get away from him.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
He maybe Stetson Bennett bennetted from from what from what
Bo was was gushing about stets and Bennett this past offseason.
I know you so want to make that Jimmy g
DeVante Adams relationship come to fruition, whether it be at
the expense of Matthew Stafford's back or stetson Bennett's future career.
You're the only one, including Jimmy Garoppolo and Devanta Adams
(10:41):
that want to see that. I know he doesn't. That's
what I said. You're the only one that wants to
see it. I don't think either of them do.
Speaker 6 (10:49):
Can we play like a game really quick? That kind
of ties into what you were talking about, Dan, in
terms of the rams over performance last year, I'm going
to give you quarterback and quarterback be their stat line.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Oh boy, the resume time.
Speaker 6 (11:01):
Yes, Quarterback A sixty five point eight percent completion percentage
three seven and sixty two yards, twenty touchdowns, eight interceptions.
Quarterback B sixty two percent completion percentage and forty one
yards twenty touchdowns, six interceptions.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Okay, so higher quarterback percentage essentially completion percentage was quarterback A.
I think quarterback A had just two more interceptions, two
more interceptions. Okay, I'm I'm gonna you know, I'm gonna
even despite the completion percentage. I don't want to turn
the ball over. I'm going to go quarterback B. I'm
(11:42):
going to go quarterback B.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
In that scenario, I think I'm going to go quarterback B.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
As well, because interesting, don't I don't think, by the way,
I don't think that this is the goal of this game,
if I'm meaning correct.
Speaker 6 (11:51):
Quarterback A was Matthew Stafford last year?
Speaker 3 (11:53):
Huh?
Speaker 6 (11:54):
Quarterback B was Kleables last year. Yeah, Matthew Stafford was
Tier one in the athletic quarterback rankings today and Caleb
Williams was fringed Heier three in the Athletics quarterback rankings.
Matthew Stafford is literally the unks still Got It meme
where he's just barely holding on, but he gets talked
about like he's still thrown to Calvin Johnson.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Total or like he's twenty nine.
Speaker 6 (12:17):
Yeah, and I like Stafford.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
That's the Super Bowl season event.
Speaker 7 (12:20):
I do think a lot of the respect for Stafford
is coming a bit delayed because I know, like everyone
now talks about, oh, this was the guy everyone watched
on their day off and Aaron Rodgers's watch would rather
watch him than like, you know, watch his own tape
on a tablet or something. But yeah, at this point,
he's you know, it's late thirties, You've got a herniated disc,
(12:41):
and can we talk about this wellness chamber that they
appear to Amskin.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
You and Isaac are hot on this. I yeah, so
I did some research into this because them hot with sarcasm.
Speaker 6 (12:53):
Hey.
Speaker 7 (12:54):
So the name of this company is like a Mortal,
which immediately struck me hard because it's like, all right,
you're doing immortal plus I guess a moral. So that's weird.
It's a converted airstream trailer. And it just screamed to
me that it's like, okay, like this seems some like
weird tech stuff. And then I looked into the company
and it is just healing crystals all the way down.
(13:15):
It is like it is a six figure chair with
like electromagnetic field therapy, vibro audio therapy.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
You know what it's for. It's to whiten his teeth.
That's what it's for. That's what he is. Detroit to
La has never gone stronger. He looks like ross from friends.
Mazzi just saw the picture I put up on Twitter.
So that's I know what. By the way, it doesn't
(13:45):
that machine doesn't whiten his teeth. But what is it?
It's he it's a healing crystals thing. Is that It's
what any to any to pull this up against it?
Speaker 4 (13:55):
It also requires a landline internet connection.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
For I have no idea for the vibrations. I'll just
take their word for waved pull.
Speaker 7 (14:06):
It's a chair you sit down in multi wave pulse
electromagnetic fields, vibroacoustic sound therapy, multi wavelength light therapy, molecular
hydrogen UH lying into your nostrils, and you just lay it.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
It's basically like this.
Speaker 7 (14:24):
This looks like this looks like a tanning bed, except
you're not really coming out bronzed at all.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
This this is, this is so Aaron Rodgers coded.
Speaker 7 (14:31):
I'm not sure how this has fallen into the This
is this is outside RAMS training camp.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Maybe that's here they got the idea from Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
It also says the only consumables the chamber utilizes are
distilled water for the hydrogen diffuser and disposable nasal canules.
Speaker 7 (14:49):
Whatevercane healing crystals. For me, because the last paragraph on this,
like spec sheets, is talking about ancient insight meets modern
tech and they have embedded sacred geometry and other symbology
and earth total.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
All right, I'm starting to tune out, okay, and I'm
doing the show. So I think the point is this,
we get it that here's the deal with Stafford, it's
the end. Like, if you're doing this now, you don't
do this at twenty eight. You don't bring an airstream
with healing crystals in nasal oxygen or whatever when you're
(15:23):
twenty eight years old. I know, like hard knocks. In
the past, we'd see guys getting in their cryo chambers.
This is trying to maximize your final days in the sun.
This is the someone's about to turn forty or fifty.
Let's I want to be twenty still, Let's try this,
Let's go to this. That's exactly what this is with
Matthew Stafford. Yeah, and it somehow has made his teeth
(15:46):
so blinding white. He looks like Ross from Friends.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Yeah, this chamber thing makes it worse.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
If we're being completely honest, like you said, you were
doing this because you are desperate right now.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
Yes, you're not bringing this in for car and Williams.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
And you're desperate also because the team made a commitment
to you, they dared you to go and look for
other options. They're just as desperate as Matthew Stafford. They're together. Yeah,
And I'm not saying you're saying anything different. I'm just
saying the point of what this is, so you will
try anything.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
They're stuck right now, they're stuck. The rams are stuck.
They're trying to figure it out.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Correct, correct, and so now you might do it. You're
not gonna do. I mean, it could be a chamber
of horrors so far for the Rams, for how this
has worked out. Okay, horrors, horrors.
Speaker 6 (16:31):
We could give aways. We could get one of these
chambers for only a fififty dollars deposit.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Oh that's just the deposit.
Speaker 6 (16:42):
But we can finance it for payments as low as
three thousand a month. So I'm thinking we just call
we scratch a piro and see what the card we.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Got a company card. Let's just put it on that.
Let's just and then I'll try to just get it
past them when I put it in their expenses.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
We can all be better if we have the chamber here?
Speaker 7 (16:57):
Does Fox Sports Radio count as vibro acoustic?
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Have you seen Forfet's teeth? They're amazingly we are not
they are not. No, No, I mean just after the.
Speaker 6 (17:08):
Yet a dentist, I'm gonna go to the have to
work with the building to see where we can put
this trailer but.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Convert the old Nikki six studio. No, we'll just put
it where they break into cars in the parking lot.
That's where. That's where we'll do it. No one will
no one will go by then. Yes, then the yoga
people will use it. This is it is not charging
for it. And this is the point where the where
the rams. And by the way, I will say this
with the rams the reason why and I've stated this
(17:39):
before Monci, so I apologize if you're hearing it again,
but if you're listening to the first time. This is
a team that traded in a deal in the draft.
They traded away their first round pick this year to
the Atlanta Falcons, so they have two first round picks
next year, knowing that Matthew Stafford was not going to
be their quarterback in twenty twenty six. I did is
(18:00):
not their plan. If they win a Super Bowl, which
I think is their ultimate goal this year, it is
right off in the sunset as a two time Super
Bowl champ. We'll see ing Canton in five years.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
Yep, thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Because that would that would solidify his career and then
they would have no ill effects towards it. They were
planning and are planning for the twenty twenty six draft
and the twenty twenty six season by doing that move. Now,
there are a lot of teams that wish that they
would have gotten the deal that the Falcons presented the
Rams at that time, but the Rams are the beneficiary
(18:33):
of it. So they go into next year Monzi with
two first round picks, just like the Brons do, and
possibly both of those teams, maybe not the Brons because
of the shedor Sanders, who knows. We'll be looking for
a quarterback in the draft, which we think is going
to be a significantly better draft for quarterbacks than twenty
twenty six, whether Arch Manning is in or out of
the draft. So the Rams have been looking for this,
(18:53):
and that's why when you go back and you trace
the steps to where they are. They didn't want to
punt on this year because they felt they were so
close in the playoffs. But they do have eyes on
the future. The defense is so much better than you
thought that they would be when you lost Aaron Donald
to retirement. So there are a lot of good things
happening with the Rams. It's just they may not happen
in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
I think everybody else in that division is just so
excited with this information coming out because everybody, a lot
of people had the Rams winning this division. I thought
the forty nine ers have a very easy schedule to
get to winning the division, despite I know the questions
with age for Christian McCaffrey and what he can do
(19:37):
in the workload, and you've lost some weapons.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
I'm sorry. I thought Rich Davis was back here. They're
gonna be great.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
They're scheduled dan such an easy.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
Ste so they're the worst. Yeah, they have the easiest
strength of schedule in the NFL.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
Absolutely, absolutely, So I really thought that they they would
be the ones to take the division.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
But a lot of people had the Rams.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
So I can only imagine that the Seahawks and the
car paying attention and they're like, look out, we're coming.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
I'm going to tell you right now. I'm going to
say it right now, and I'll say.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Write dam prediction, write it down, put it on that sheet.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
He's gonna be I want to give you the definitive order.
But the Rams and Niners are going to be the
two worst teams in that division. Wow, the Cardinals, the
Cardinals are Seahawks will win the NFC West. Wow. And
it's because when you have stuff like this going on
in the preseason, it doesn't necessarily work out that well.
I think people are completely overvaluing the forty nine Ers.
(20:30):
The other teams in the NFC West also get to
face teams from the AFC South and also get the
teams face teams from the NFC South. We know Carolina
is expected to be better, but we don't know how
good New Orleans is going to be. We don't know
how good the Falcons are going to be. Yeah, we
kind of do. But you'd much rather face that division
than say the NFC East when you have to face
(20:51):
the Commanders and Eagles, or obviously the NFC North with
their strong squads. So the rest of the division also
has an easy year road, just not as easy as
the forty nine ers because they finished dead last, but
they'll get a lot of the similar opponents in the schedule.
So that's why you can't sleep on Arizona and you
can't sleep on Seattle because they also get to face
(21:12):
some of these teams that these squads are facing.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Fair fair. I am not trusting the Cardinals right now.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
That's and I don't think many people are. I don't
think people will. I'm not and I think that the
Rams in the forty nine ers, because people feel like
all the forty nine ers, they have that one bad year,
then they bounce back. It's not the forty nine ers
team from four years ago. It's just not that doesn't
this doesn't happen every single year with them at some
point ages catching up to you, just like the Rams
are finding out with Matthew Stafford. Yeah, she's Monzi Bologno.

Speaker 1 (23:12):
All right, it was quite a weekend in sports. Not
only was it week one of the preseason. Not only
did Tommy Fleet would not close the deal again on
the PGA Tour, Justin Rose ends up winning in Memphis,
but also history was made. You say, a glass ceiling
shattered on Saturday as Jen Powell made history becoming the
first female to umpire a Major League baseball game, and
(23:37):
then she ended up on Sunday being behind on plate
in the Marlins Braves game. It was something that we
had talked about last week, Manzi when the news kind
of broke. We've seen it in the NBA. We've become
accustomed to it. I think in the NFL sometimes with
hats you don't realize talent.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
You see maybe a Ponytail movie.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Correct, So it's almost become the norm totally. But now
in Major League Baseball sometimes when they're geared up or
depending on the hats, could be the same thing. But
we I didn't realize that it had never happened before
until they told us. But finally a female was an
umpire in a major league baseball game.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
Yeah, no, I didn't know either.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
I mean I heard about a year ago when she
was doing minor league baseball, but at that time, I
was like.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
Oh, there's no female umpires in baseball? How late to
the game?
Speaker 2 (24:24):
Are they the slowest sport out of the big three?
Speaker 3 (24:27):
You know that you would think you can have a female.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Umpire because there's not a lot of contact and is
one of the slower sports. Way late to the game,
way late to the game. She's been doing minor league
for a few years now, and yeah she got her
her big start. Good for her, all right.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Jen Jason Stewart said on Friday that this was something
that like Major League Baseball really couldn't celebrate because to
your point, they were just slow to the game.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
Late to the game.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
And then also because considering the discussion with umpires right
moving towards robot umpires, because the umpires are not sometimes
that great.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
It's just kind of like this is when you want
to bring a woman when you're having problems, we do
solve the problems. I guess that's why you're bringing a woman.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
I thought that the irony was and I don't know
if it's irony because I'm not sure the exact definition
of it. Chris Pophat or Isaac Lowancron, bo benzon UMNTI
someone who's way smart, smarter than he could tell me.
I just thought it was interesting that this weekend was
also hijacked by some thirteen year old kid who wants
to be an umpire. And it's like, all right, this
(25:30):
is why I hate kid cooking shows. I can't stand it.
I can't stand them Food Network. I don't need to
see kids cook. I don't. I just I don't like
it annoys me, and I'm sorry if I was annoyed
by thirteen year old kid Empire. But after like two calls,
it was neat. I can't imagine Inning six being at
the game and he's still doing that, like, all right,
(25:53):
we get it, we still doing a bit understand.
Speaker 7 (25:55):
Twenty twenty five baby gronk. Yeah, I was gonna say,
is this the cause one of the hostco guys.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
I just who wants to be an umpire? Nobody does, right,
because he gave me three big booms. I just, oh
my goodness, Like, I hope neither team gave him an
autography because he's an umpire, Like no, we're not. No,
I'm kidding, I'm kidding.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
I think kids maybe want to be umpires for the
Savanna bananas right now.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
And maybe that they're in the doing backflips.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
Yeah, exactly you got to have a good strikeout call.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
What are you're gonna be in the Pittsanana points On.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
A weekend where we're whether we should or shouldn't celebrated,
it was still a milestone. Yes, what we also have
it basically being like, look, a thirteen year old kid
could do this job as well. Not only not only robots,
but a thirteen year old kid sitting three rows up
could also do this job. Like that's what we're doing.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Yeah, I think I think Baseball missed that part right there,
that message.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
I h I think it was. It was a cool weekend.
Hopefully we'll see more. But it doesn't mean that we
can't have some fun, at least on my end. I
know it may be low hanging fruit. Well, we have
some jokes, Okay, all right, let's let's just strike it. Manzi.
I don't know what these are. These are female umpire jokes. Okay,
(27:09):
these are Look at Isaac Low and kron Is backed
away from from the microphone. Did you guys know that
the game was delayed ten minutes yesterday? Did you know that?
Speaker 3 (27:18):
I did not know that.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
Yeah, not because of the standing ovation, but she was
late after she hit three traffic cones and a parking
attendant of the parking lot. That's what happened.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
No, come on, are you implying that women are not
good driving?
Speaker 1 (27:34):
Let's look, this is lower you are you?
Speaker 3 (27:36):
You sound like my dad right now?
Speaker 1 (27:38):
Okay, Dan, all right?
Speaker 3 (27:40):
And you know what my.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
Dad when he's saying, oh, it's got to be a female,
and then we turned the corner and it's not.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
It's a man.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
Okay, Okay, I'm kidding. It wasn't. The game wasn't delayed
ten minutes. It was actually delayed ninety minutes because she
was still getting ready. That's that's the reason why. That's
all right. No, I don't need drops. They're the jokes
by themselves.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
Okay, No you need help.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
No, no, you need help. No maybe maybe a laugh track. No, No,
women take forever to get ready. That's the joke.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
That's the worst one. Can you give me a better joke?
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Though?
Speaker 3 (28:10):
Come on, you gotta give something better.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Did you know that they the first baseball that she
called that they took out a play? Yes, yeah, she
took it to Nordstrum and got store credit afterwards. That's
a nice second. I love I love a nice meaningful gift.
Taken back by a woman like you know there it
was a nice, meaningful gift for Christmas.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
Yeah, okay, because apparently we're bad drivers. We did treat ourselves.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
That was just low hanging fruit. Did you know that
the game was stopped for twenty minutes in the bottom
of the fourth Why Dan, she couldn't make up her
mind if the runner at home was safer out? That's
it just took forever. Like, just make up your mind
on something, bo Benson, buy that all right, Chris Purfette,
You're uh, jokes are going so far.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
That one was funny.
Speaker 8 (29:02):
That one.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
I'll give it because I can't make up my mind
whenever I want to eat something.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
I don't know and I you know what, Okay, safe, Nope, out, Nope,
he's out. Okay, he's out. Nope, you know what, he's safe.
You know.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
But that was fun I'll give that one to you.
That one was funny.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
There was good news from yesterday's game.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
It was there.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Yeah, no one was ejected. Both managers felt it was pointless.
And some man has never won an argument with a woman,
that is, And it was Isaac, Isaac, you are hiding
under the desk. I saw bow break for a second.
I saw you like. Which one did you like? Which
one did you like?
Speaker 6 (29:41):
That last one was good because it's true, because it's
also the one about taking forever. Yes, that is a challenge.
Speaker 1 (29:48):

That's why.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Yeah, you guys, we try. We care, Okay, just because
you take three minutes to get out of bed, we try.
I washed my hair today. That was It's all process,
you know.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
She stopped talking to Braves manager Brian Snitker for the
rest of the game because he dared to challenge a
call in the sixth inning. She just stopped talking to him.
They asked her why, She goes, I'm not mad. I'm fine.
I'm fine. I'm just quiet. I'm not I'm not mad.
Why were you mad at Brian Snicker? I'm fine? What
do you mean? I'm I'm fine. I'm fine.
Speaker 3 (30:21):

happen today.
Speaker 6 (30:31):
Oh, there she comes, hit the break news sounder.
Speaker 1 (30:33):
All right, here's the one I'm worried about about it.
That's the last one.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
Do you actually have when you're worried about Look at you.

Speaker 8 (30:56):
Okay, so rude.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
When she took lemon pledge to the outside of the
black on the plates, I thought it was absurd. I
thought it was ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
And this is why we can't have nice things. We
can have nice things.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
Let's go to an overall grade, Manzi. Those jokes that
we could have said, what do we got?
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Listen, they weren't. They weren't terrible. See, they weren't terrible.
Fun they they're stereotypical. They weren't terrible.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
I thought it was odd she brought a swiffer out
to the.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
More like that thing, like you better?
Speaker 7 (31:39):

point where I was going to play this.

On a high note. All right, you're going to clean
the house later today. I'm going to text Lisa, you're cleaning.
Get your swiffer ready.
Speaker 7 (32:00):
This would only be like the second time I think
a host has been called out on air by their wife.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
No, when was the first.
Speaker 7 (32:08):
Jason Smith's wife called in to complain when he was
blaming her about the state of the laundry. I've been
looking for it. I think it's in our system somewhere.
I am hand of the Bible. I was there for that.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
I can't wait for the garage door opener to not
work when I get home.

That's everyone.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
I just was like, is it Friday night? I got
sexy all of a sudden, what's going on here?

a dynasty draft for fantasy football this past weekend. It's
still going on, right, Where are we in your dynasty draft?
Speaker 6 (35:08):
I have not made a pick today.
Speaker 1 (35:10):
All right? And those are are always fun. I can't
stand the fantasy draft via text. We had one of those.
Steve de Seger was in. It was the worst thing ever.
You text it's a text chain. You make one hundred
and twenty picks via text message, so it just keeps
going and going.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
And then somebody is putting these picks in like.
Speaker 1 (35:34):
Yes, yes, yes, someone's writing them down. It's just off.
Yes that take the time out people, set aside three
hours of your day. If it's going to dominate your
Sundays every year, you can do that. Now do a draft,
do it the right way. You won't regret it, simple
as that. That's that's all that I have to say.
Speaker 3 (35:53):
I wouldn't do that if if they were like, we're
going to do it in a text chain, I'd be.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
Like, no, is your email bow? Is that what it is?
Speaker 6 (36:00):
No, it is it is sleeper. But oh yeah, everybody
is asleep.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Okay, but do they enter the pick they enter it
on a site or do they do yeah, okay, yeah,
all right, then it's like your pick us up. It's
it's the worst. He'll be honestly, October ninth, he'll still
be here. They'll still be drafting the way that some
of those things go. Oh, today there was news from
college football, and the coaches poll is usually thought to
(36:26):
be kind of the joke of the town and The
reason Manzi is because coaches really only see who they play.
So if you're the coach, if you're James Franklin at
Penn State, you can see what Texas did in the
score book, but you're not worried about what they're doing
to watch them play to fill out a ballot. A
lot of the coaches ballots are made by sports information
(36:48):
directors who probably know just as much as the coaches
do because they're also have game day duties and not
focusing on everybody else in the country. It's the ap
pole that we think, is this end all be all
because the writers know all Well, no, not necessarily, because again,
if you're a beat writer for a team, you're likely
following that team and therefore not able to see everybody
(37:10):
in college football. So they're people don't like polls. They say,
we don't have preseason polls. I love them because they
get you hyped for the season, but there's no perfect way.
But I just want to say this, did you see
who was number one in the preseason eight peopole tree?
Did it was Texas?
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (37:25):
Right, yes, well that was the same one in the
coaches poll. And the coaches are like, you know what,
you know what would be good for college football. Let's
start a season with one versus two. We'll put Ohio
State too, because they open up the season perfect. Not
the media writers. They put Penn State two and Ohio
State three. In fact, Penn State almost top Texas just
five points. Shy because the media thinks they know all.
(37:45):
But in this situation, not good for college football. You
should have just done a one out of two. So
you have a one in of two to start the season,
and that gets everybody hyped. I would avoid me.
Speaker 2 (37:54):
Yes, I was surprised by the one two three. To
be honest with you, I thought Ohio State would have
been one or two.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
Oh yes, you would say, naturally, you didn't understand the assignment.
Penn State may ultimately be the best team in the country,
and when they show it on the field, you have that.
But if you have a one versus two possible matchup,
that's how you do it. People don't believe in these
polls anyway. It's just for hype, and the media didn't
get the assignments.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
You had one job.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
She's Monzi Belgios. I'm Dan Byer. You did a great
job today.
Speaker 3 (38:21):
